  1. Neither of the drivers works: A: driver from link you sent B: newest nVidia driver So I downloaded Gefore experience - and it installed the newest nVidia driver successfully
  2. Great news! After some NVIDIA update from February - it installed the driver successfully. Thank you guys so much. I was getting really nervous about that GPU. I feel grateful and little bit lame though
  3. I thought it had finished after installing like around 20 of them. But you're hopefully right - now there is going on installation of some update for like 1 hour. My connection is 300 Mb down though. It is now at 98% so I hope after that it would work. Thank you all so far for support, I'll let you know after updated finishes.
  4. 1-3 verified - all good the thing is... i am getting video through the GPU, but... in device manager there is: Basic graphics adapter Microsoft displayed (in the Graphics adapter)
  5. There are no such dedicated GPU driers on MSI official website. I'm running GPU from Gigabyte - OC version. I did not find any Nvidia drivers. I've used the DDU, then wanted to install the nVidia driver but it was not compatible with my W10 version for some reason.
  6. https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/MAG-Z390-TOMAHAWK#down-driver&Win10 64 What drivers specificaly? The chipset drivers?
  7. There are 5 problems in device manager: PCI controller for retrieving data and signal processing BUS controller SM Network adapter - but network seems to work fine PCI device PCI device Screen attached.
  8. yes both and the instalation did not work - It says: This driver of NVIDIA graphics is not compatible with this Windows version. Well I'm running not official W10 pro x64
  9. Hi guys, I've built my first PC ever today and it seems to work fine, but GPU is not found in device manager. Z390 MSI Tomahawk here with i5 9600k. I've updated the bios to the newest -> Did not help though. So I guess it is a driver problem then... but I don't know how to deal with it. Any ideas please?
  10. i5 9600k is cheaper than i7 8700k and since I won't play AAA titles mostly than why not using 9600k on non-overclockable board. In the end isn't overclocking lowering CPU lifetime anyway? Not that I'm against overclocking or something. And unfortunately this board does not support q-flash + So I' guess I'll just change the board and go on with it. And yes... I'll overclock it since there'll be the possibility.
  11. Thank you for confirm. Still pissed at Gigabyte for their Key Feature though... Any recommendation which MB to choose this time? Z390 Tomahawk seems reasonable enough?
  12. Hi, thanks to LTT I got encouraged to build my first PC. Now I'm currently discouraged because of: problem here with PC not posting any display output + there's red led lights (on MB) showing on and off for CPU, DRAM, VGA. My troubleshooting so far: A) Fans spins => spins B) Disconnected/demounted all components and mounted/connected back again => no problems detected C) Checking CPU pins / Wrong thermal paste application => no problems detected D) Switching RAM between DIMM slots (with different counts (1-2 sticks), with different orders) => no difference detected E) Disconnecting all components besides CPU + RAM => no difference detected F) CMOS reset by removing battery for 10+ min => no difference detected I hope it is because the Gigabyte B360 Gaming 3 Wifi has old BIOS which is not compatible with i5 9600k. Since I don't have any older CPU by hand, I'll probably buy some Z390 MB like MSI Tomahawk. Please any thoughts, what else might it be? Or do you think I'm probably right on this one? Any more troubleshooting to do? Recomendation on cheap MB which would have stock bios with 9th GEN i5 support? (no overclocking needed since I'll be using 1660 Ti anyway) Build setup: PSU: EVGA 750 B3 MB: Gigabyte B360 Gaming 3 Wifi CPU: i5 9600k RAM: Hyper-x Fury 2666 MHz, dual channel 2x8 GB GPU: 1660 Ti SSD: V-NAND SSD 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2
