Hello everyone, I recently had to RMA my Ryzen 9 3900XT and got a Ryzen 5 3600 for the meantime as im work from home. I got my replacement processor in and installed it, however CPU-ID and task Manager is only detecting 6c/12t instead of the on the Ryzen 9 3900XT 12c/24t. I reset my motherboard to default settings but am stuck for what else to do next... any suggestions would be great!

Not to be rude, but the system doesn’t post. It stopped posting after my initial system shutdown last night while playing battlefront. After hours of troubleshooting we knew the GPU was dead (tried in a spare pc) so we bought a new GPU to see if that would work.

Hey everyone, I upgraded my 1070 to an RX6800 very impulsively today after my 1070 died while playing battlefront II. After lots of troubleshooting before purchasing my new GPU. My motherboard ASUS X570 Tuf Gaming Plus (wifi) was displaying the troubleshooting code for VGA. We tried clearing cmos, booting without GPU, switching PCI slots, etc. my system is as follows. R9 3900XT, RX6800 GPU, 32GB Corsair Vengance 3200MHz, ASUS X570 Tuf Gaming Plus (wifi). We were able to boot once with the new graphics card in place. But now it’s not booting and stuck at the original problem. White VGA light and not finishing the post sequence. Please heeeelp..

Okay, so as a first time poster on the LTT Forum, I'm not too sure if people will be able to help. So here it goes: I recently came in contact with an HP Elite 8200 SFF PC that I was specifically going to use for Plex for my wife and I, and a few of our close friends. When putting the new hard drive in (from a western digital enclosure) my 4TB drive decided that it didn't want to be recongized. As I've just learned, the drive was dropped by my god daughter who's 2. And now when loading it, Linux declares 5 bad sectors.. The drive still pops up in windows, and Linux but nothing wants to touch it as it's unknown (pmbr). Is there anything that anyone would suggest? I'm running a disk check when I get home from work and will update what I get.

If its a "click" style sound your hearing, check out your PSU. It may be D.O.A (Dead on arrival). Also, because your PSU is modular, make sure the cables are being plugged into the right ports. This would create the clicking sound when you're booting and should stop the restarting!
