Well sh*t. Thank you for your reply though!

Yes, i have Anyway, drivers are irrelevant in this case since the BIOS splash should be displayed when HDMI cable is connected to the GPU, even without any drivers

Hi everyone, I bought a broken Sapphire HD7970 locally, a guy told me he tried to flash the BIOS, but the computer won't boot after that. Considering low price and the fact that ATI cards are really difficult to hard-brick, i went with it and now i'm totally regretting it. - The card has two BIOSes (there's a switch on it to chose the BIOS), and there's "No HDMI signal" on my monitor when it's connected to the card, whichever BIOS i choose - The fan don't spin, but the card gets quite hot. I disassembled it, the fan connector is in place and none of the wires seem to be damaged, not sure what that's about - The computer boots just fine when the monitor is connected to internal GPU (Ryzen 2400G) and the HD9790 shows up in the Device Manager - I tried re-flashing the BIOS a few times (using several BIOS files i got from here https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/?manufacturer=Sapphire&model=HD+7970), with no luck: ATIFlash detects the card, reports no error after flashing the BIOS, but still "No Signal" after rebooting Of course, the first thougth is that the GPU is dead, but then again, would it be detected in the Display Manager? I don't think so. Things i tried that didn't help: - Changing the primary output to PCIe in BIOS - Disabling CSM - Re-plugging the PCIe power connectors - Plugging the card into a different PCIe slot Things i can't try at the moment - Trying a different cable (i have a bunch of HDMI cables, that i tried, but no DisplayPort or DVI cables) - Trying a different PC (i don't have friends with desktop PCs) The rest of the specs: Mobo: ASUS Prime B350-Plus CPU: Ryzen 2400G PSU: Thermaltake Berlin 630W RAM: Crucial DDR4 8GB 2400Mhz Any help or advice will be appreciated!

Tried it multiple times

No, but the house is kind of old, and the walls are thick, i have problems with cellular connection, too. I just don't use 3G at home, bc i have Wi-fi, so that's not a problem Yeah, i do have a microwave, but it's not running 24/7, obviously. No construction-yards that i'm aware of. Yeah, i have a Raspberry Pi that i tried to use as an access point, same result.

Hi everyone, there is a very weird problem with my wi-fi connection I have two devices: a laptop running Arch Linux and a desktop machine running Windows 10. Both lose the wi-fi connection randomly, even pinging the local IP of the router fails (request timed out). Despite that, the signal seems strong (both devices show maximum amount of bars) and the wi-fi itself doesn't disconnect, just stops transmitting data. Sometimes instead of disappearing completely, the connection just becomes really slow (even pinging the router's IP takes 1300-4000ms). The problem just goes away by itself after some time. I tried to create a hotspot using a Raspberry Pi connected to the router via an ethernet cable, but the result is the same: sometimes the connection to the router just drops randomly, whereas the ping from Raspberry Pi to the router remains stable. Obvious things that did not help: - reinstalling drivers - changing the network type to b, b/g, b/g/n, etc. - changing the wi-fi channel - changing the SSID - moving the router a little bit closer (it's about 8 meters away from the devices anyway, so i don't think the position of the router is the problem here) Also, - there is no MAC filtering, parental control, throttling functionality that is currently enabled - the router is working at 2.4Ghz What is the problem? Is my house cursed by some kind of wi-fi hating demon? Any help is appreciated!

Well, i played with the settings a little bit more, and was able to get stable temperatures and no startup problems with these settings: Voltage: 1.35V CPU Freq: 3.80Ghz GPU Freq: 1420Mhz

Yes, i'm on the latest BIOS

The temperatures are better (40 degrees idle, 70-80 degrees under load), but still not quite as good as when the voltage is set to 1.25V (with which the mobo won't post). I'm using the stock AMD cooler (Wraith Stealth) and the CPU is Ryzen 2400G

Yeah, i found out that the minimal voltage it would let me post with is 1.325.

I have a problem with my ASUS Prime B350 Plus. I'm trying to undervolt my CPU (Ryzen 2400G), because the default voltage (1.45V) and, as a result, the temperatures are way too high (as high as 95 degrees under load), even though i have 3 case fans apart from the CPU fan. However, when i set the offset value (0.2000V) and reboot my PC, it won't post. Once i manually restart it, it posts into safe mode, but once i go into UEFI and choose my OS from the Boot Menu, it boots into it and everything works just fine, the temperatures are much better as well. Now, of course, having to restart my computer twice every time i want to use it is not something i'm looking forward to. What's the problem and how can it be solved? Some more things that i've noticed: - I tried playing with settings (Line Load Calibration, Core Boost, etc.), didn't help - It doesn't matter what offset value i put, the PC won't post with any offset I was able to post with -0.12500, but it won't go higher. So far, the temperatures are OK, but they're even better at -0.20000 - Settings offsets for SOC doesn't cause that kind of behaviour, though it doesn't help the temperatures either - I tried replacing the stock thermal paste with Arctic MX4 and re-installing the cooler, didn't help - I tried going back to default settingsn, re-installing the BIOS and resetting the CMOS battery - didn't help - In case it helps, the memory i use is Crucial 8GB DDR4 CT8G4DFD824A Any help would be appreciated!
