Dxer

Oddly enough, just for SnGs, I redownload it and reinstalled it. Now it works fine. I guess 6th time is a charm. With that being said, why is Ryzen Master garbage? I had been using it since the Ryzen chips were introduced and haven't had any problems. Coming from a decade or more using Intel processors. And a large mix of manufacturers before that. So, what makes Ryzen Master bad and what are some good alternatives in your opinion?

Pretty much what Cheburek said. Get the best GPU you can afford as long as your power supply can run it. What is your budget for a GPU?

Weird problem. I just installed the new CPU in my ASUS x570 TUF PLUS (wi-fi) but now Ryzen Master won't initialize. Tells me to reinstall. I have several times but nothing seems to work. It was working just fine with my R7 2700 with this motherboard. BIOS is set to default settings at the moment. Aside from boosting the RAM to factory settings DDR3000. I had to flash the BIOS to 3602 from 3001 to be able to get Windows to load.

Decisions...Decisions.... The B450 Tomahawk is a good board for the 2700x. I built a machine for a friend last year with that board and it does a good job. I just opted for this board for future upgradability. And for me, this board so far has been plug-n-play with my 2700.

For what it's worth, I had just bought the ASUS x570 TUF Gaming Plus (wi-fi) board a couple days ago. It is running my R7 2700 just fine with no issues. Even tossed in a second M.2 drive in it yesterday. Soon as my GTX 1070 sells (wow video cards are nuts right now), I'll buy a 5800x to put in it. Maybe a 5900x. But it appears to be a decent enough board for my needs. Not to pricey with plenty of features.

Right, kind of figured that is what you meant. I am currently running the 2700 which will allow me to set the board up prior to plugging in a new 5000 series CPU. Like I mentioned, I won't be doing any heavy overclocking. But I will kick it up a few notches. With that being said, I will look more into the other boards you mentioned. As for my cooling solution, I am currently running the Corsair H115 pro AIO which does an excellent job keeping my 2700 cool. I am expecting to see temps rise a fair amount with the 5800x but I should still be able to keep it within reasonable temperatures. If not, no biggie. I'll just get a bigger rad.

RGB headers aren't needed though I see it does come with a couple. I already have a Corsair Commander with a couple of hubs running my 6 LL fans and some strips. This has the needed USB headers I am currently using. You might need to elaborate on this. Looks like from the manual that I shouldn't have any problem updating the BIOS. Something I have done with many other boards without problems (knock on wood) and this looks just as easy.

So I am looking to upgrade the CPU and believe I will get the AMD 5800x. I am not a heavy overclocker (not anymore anyway) but want some room to do so. My 2700 @ 3.9ghz has been fine but now time to step it up a little. I do some light gaming and astronomy image processing. The 16 threads helps a bunch in this area. So I am looking at this motherboard. Seems to be a decent budget x570 board from many reviews I have seen. So I am looking for pros and cons running this with a 5000 series CPU. Any other solutions is welcome.

No, the LG monitor is on the far right of the setup and that worked just fine with the HDMI port. The two Acers are on the the display ports.

I tried that as well. The center monitor still would not come on no matter the order I changed it to.

Funny thing is that the computer actually thinks the monitor is there. Nvidia control panel sees the monitor and sets it up correctly. I can turn off the monitor and it disappears from the control panel. Turn it back on and the monitor shows up again with the correct settings. The monitor just simply tells me no signal though.

LOL...Yes, He has the two new monitors plugged into the DP ports and the 3rd LG monitor in the HDMI port. I would select DP on the monitors themselves, but the monitor then would just cycle through all the ports trying to find a signal.

So a couple years ago, I built my step-son a Ryzen 7 1700x with a RTX2070 machine. It has been working fine. Well, he opted to buy a couple of Acer 144hz 1080p monitors this past weekend. He had them all working along with a 3rd LG 75hz 1080p in a triple monitor setup yesterday. I am trying my best to paraphrase what he told me. He came home from work and the first monitor on the left would not display. I believe he unplugged and replugged in all the cables. Booted back up. The monitor came back on normally but the center monitor now would not display. So he grabbed me to troubleshoot the problem. So, what I observed was that the computer was actually detecting the monitor and thought it was present. I could drag the mouse pointer or a window across the blank screen and have it show up on either monitor. But the monitor itself said "no signal". After playing around with the nvidia control panel and trying multiple monitor configs, still could not get it to turn on. So, I unplug the computer itself for about 10 seconds, plug it back in, and then rebooted. All three monitors are working normally again. So my first guess is that the display port cables he bought are crap. They are Best Buy branded Insignia. I have had similar issues with using cheaper cables. Question is, is there something else that I might be forgetting to do? Or do you think that this is simply just a cable issue?

What does your CPU usage look like? Almost seems like something in the background is hogging up some resources. Also check thermals. Make sure nothing is being throttled back due to heat.

A used GTX 1070 is still a decent enough card. I had no problems running 60fps on about everything I could throw at it at 1080p. Granted, I don't game a whole lot so I could be wrong. But the little I do play, no problems. Though I just upgraded yesterday to the RTX 2070 super. Not that I really needed too. But, I had a few extra dollars sitting around.

My mid range build. Just bought the video card yesterday to replace a GTX1070. Nothing to write home about but works well. Benchmark: Time Spy CPU: Ryzen 7 2700 @ 3.9ghz GPU: EVGA RTX 2070S XC Ultra GPU Core: 2,010 mhz GPU MEM: 1,765mhz Score: 10,071 LINK: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/44230530

SATA ports? You just need those for additional hard drive space. If you have a lot of hard drives you want to put into the system than yes, I can see why you would want to choose a SATA SSD over a M.2. But if you are only going to have one or two extra hard drives, then the M.2 is a more attractive option due to the raw speed over a SATA SSD.

How many SATA ports do you need?

Looks like a solid build. Only thing I would probably change is the SSD and get a M.2 drive.

Just going to throw this out here. If your primary use is for video editing, I think you would be far better with a 2700 and get the extra 4 threads. That will help quite a bit. Perhaps the pricing is a bit out of range where you are located?

With all the systems I had built in the past 30 years, it truly is a gamble. I always prepare to do a complete reinstall. It certainly is the best option for optimal operation. But sometimes I will try and get away with it and sometimes I do. And of course there are times it didn't work. Just keep your important data backed up in case it doesn't work.

Ahh, gotcha. Also here I am going through my manual because I just used the same board for my wife's build. If I was more observant, I would have seen you already posted a picture of the troubleshooting beeps. lol

Are you trying to boot the machine without plugging in the video card? The pictures don't show a plug in the card.

Yes.

I am assuming you bought 2 x 16gb? Or 4 x 8 gb? What you can try booting with only one stick at a time and see if there is just a bad stick. Run through your BIOS like you already did, but with only one stick installed.
