  1. UPDATE: As with the first board, the card is working in the second pcie slot but not the first. Have I just been really unlucky?
  2. Right, to cut a long story short, I built my first PC in early November. I tried my GPU and EZDEBUG had a VGA led on. So I bought a GTX 750ti to use while I save up for a new GPU. I try it and the same thing happens, I tried it in the second pcie slot and it worked. I used it until the end of December when I decided to RMA the board as the top spot seemed to be dead. After a lot of hassle, the new board has arrived and I have rebuilt the computer. Unfortunately, the first time I tried to boot, the same VGA led appeared on the EXDEBUG. Specs are as follows: Ryzen 5 2600 MSI B450 Tomahawk motherboard Corsiar Vengeance 16gb DDR4 3000Mhz Crucial 250gb SSD Corsair TX650M Nvidia GTX 750ti Thanks for any help Fingers crossed they haven't sent me another dud board

  4. I installed my gtx 750ti into the top spot on motherboard and got a VGA error led on mobo. Tried it in second slot and it worked so contacted MSI and waiting for a response. Then I accidentally installed 32 bit windows as I was using the usb that i used to reinstall windows on some old laptops. I've used windows 10 media creation tool to make a 64bit USB and after turning off PC and turning back on, it won't display anything and no error LEDs. Anyone advice?

  5. And the long answer? As long as the RGB is controllable (preferably through MSI software) and the ram does what ram should.
  6. Does anyone know if the Corsair vengeance RGB pro ram is compatible with MSI B450 Tomahawk motherboard? Looking at picking some up in Black Friday deals. Thanks
  7. Thanks a lot. I don't get great speeds sadly due to living in suburban England but I will invest in one like that for futureproofing
  8. Similar thing happened to me recently, I found resetting the CMOS worked for me.
  9. I have one Ethernet port in my room from a powerline extender. I need to split the Ethernet so I can connect my Xbox One and my PC. Would the best way to do this be with a network switch? If so, any (cheap-ish) reccmmendations; if not, what would be the best solution? PS: I'm in the Uk
  10. Thanks, I was aware of that but thought the pro had intakes on the front. I might end up going down that route with the meshify c. However, I'm planning to buy parts on black Friday so will most likely buy what's on sale and suites my needs
  11. Thanks @TVwazhere. I was interested in the masterbox lite 5 rgb but heard that it ran very hot. Does the pro improve on this issue as it looks like a very good contender?
  12. I'm looking for a mid tower case with tempered glass side panel, a PSU shroud, radiator support and RGB built-in. I know it's quite specific but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. Not looking to spend over 100. I've had my eye on the Bitfenix Enso but was worried about thermals so if anyone has used this case, your experience with it would be greatly appreciated Thanks PS: Bonus is the RGB is aura sync compatible
  13. Don't forget a copy of windows unless you have one, plan to use Linux or other free alternative, or want to enter the *cough* dark web
  14. Oculus Rift and Touch bundle on offer for £399.99. Click Here!
  15. Thanks this actually looks decent for the price. This image just shows exactly what I spoke about
  16. The Sennheisers seem nice but headphone jack might be an issue as I plan to use with phone so I would be constantly plugging and unplugging. Also keeping in my pocket might not be feasible with those. Thank still
  17. Funny you say this. I'm looking for a pair to replace those. I lost mine at a BBQ and was wondering whether to get a new pair of those or some others from a known brand.
  18. Thanks. Over here pc parts are completely over priced at the moment. Probably as a result of ethereum mining. Hoping the market will calm down as I'd like to get Ryzen 3 at least. I'll see what I can find. I don't use pcpartpicker. I always find their prices are inaccurate.
  19. Only a Lenovo laptop. I3-5005U 8GB RAM. Looking to build my first PC
  20. Hi guys. Looking for a new pair of earphones preferably under £30. Inline mic/controls would be useful but not essential. Any recommendations please?
  21. I'd recommend 1 stick of 8GB RAM as opposed to 2 x4GB so you can upgrade if you wish in future
  22. I know it's not on steam but The Sims is nice if you are into those kind of games. Or games such as PlanetCoaster or Cities Skyline. And if you are looking to play fun little games multiplayer, Golf with Friends is good. Or slightly violent, Ultimate Chicken Horse.
  23. I'm looking to build a PC for around £500 over the next few months. Still newish to the component searching market. Ideally prices from the UK market. Just wanted some help and advice from friendly people who know. Thanks
