One of the reasons I wanted to go fairly high end with the CPU is so that I could run multiple VMs concurrently.
For NAS Storage, I've ordered 4 x 4TB WD red's for bulk storage (which one of the drives will be used for redundancy) and have a 500gb NVME drive for caching. I'm also planning on using 2x 1TB SSD and partioning the raid for the VM's. I've got an 850w 80+ Plat PSU I had spare from a previous build which I know is a bit overkill but I didn't wanted to buy another PSU if I had one spare.
Im having problems with my display (Acer XR342ck [3440*1440p 75Hz IPS])
When i was playing a game yesterday my screen suddenly went like this {Image attached}. Does anyone know what this is.
When i now turn my pc back on everything powers up and then the monitor displays "no signal"
So far i have tried these steps to diagnose the problem:
- Restarted the pc multiple times
- Assumed gpu overclock was too high, booted into safe mode and deleted msi afterburner containing the overclock settings
- Assumed CPU overclock was too high, went into bios and reset everything to factory settings
- Assumed windows 10 ver. 1903 error, downloaded the latest bios from MSI (https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/X99A-XPOWER-GAMING-TITANIUM)
- Assumed windows error, reinstalled windows and preformed a system wipe in case it was a program causing it to not boot.Now running windows 10 ver. 1809
After these attempts, i booted into windows and then when windows automatically started installing basic drivers for the system and adjusting the resolution, the monitor again displayed "no signal"
At this point i have assumed that the display is broken when it defaults to its advertised resolution (3440 *1440 75Hz)
I have tried plugging in my laptop and the display works fine in another resolution.
Is there anything else i could try to get it back to its factory state
I would appreciate any feedback if at all possible
