    What motherboard?
     
    Some boards turn off a couple SATA ports when an NVMe drive is installed, as they share PCIe lanes.  Move the HDD to another SATA port to test.

    aDoomGuy reacted to RONOTHAN## in how I can change cpu v core compensation from bios...on asus mother board??   
    Level 5 sounds like an LLC setting, and given what LLC does (affects the amount the core voltage drops when the CPU goes under full load), "V Core Compensation" sounds like either a badly google translated version of it or the guy forgot the word "LLC"
     
    So yes, I'd hazard a guess that the CPU Load Line Calibration setting is the one that they actually want changed.

    But go clean your room. It's healthier for the carbon based life form(s) occupying.

    So does mine, but, well, we learn to get along. I was still using Nokia 1600 when my sister bought her first iPhone 4.

    I recommend using NVCleanstall when installing NVIDIA's drivers. You can really cut back all the NVIDIA nonsense.

    Likely some arbitrary decision to still justify the full BitLocker being held hostage in Pro, Education, and Enterprise editions.

    By pure chance I have a consulting fee of $500 per post. So this resolves the situation perfectly. 😉
     
    Did you do anything to earn the S20FE or was it just a gift while your sister got nothing? What's the value of a used S20FE? $200? IMHO it seems fair to attribute the honest value of the S20FE to the total and split it equally (be the bigger person). Your sister gets $600 to spend on a phone and you get $400 to spend on a Switch and a $200 phone. This is plenty for the Swiitch OLED and a game or two. So you both get a piece of the cake, you can mathematically show it's fair and you don't have the drama.

    Turn off XMP and see if it still happens. Unstable memory OC can cause seemingly random reboot.

    How about the Phanteks P600S? You can take off front and top panels (secured with magnets for easy removal and putting back together. Easy to work with, great airflow and big enough for your rads.
     



    EDIT: Last pic got stretched ...I dunno why... 🙃

    aDoomGuy got a reaction from PDifolco in Constant issues since getting new CPU   
    Well lets get a few things out of the way. First, Icue is a buggy mess. Sometimes it works and sometimes it dont. I stopped using it alltogether. To light up your RAM it needs to connect with your motherboard software by the means of plugins and sometimes that doesn't work to great. You can try to enter Icue software when this happens and disable plugins, then wait a bit and reenable them. You can perhaps try OpenRGB and see if that works better.
     
    Ryzen Master, heh. I don't know what's gotten into it as of late but I experienced that too with my 5800X. Current status is takes forever to initialize. Then if I let Windows close it due to it not responding and launching it again, works fine. I had your issue too though, earlier. Fixed it by reinstalling a couple of times I think. Also check for update button only appears to make a white small box appear on my screen at random places for a little while. Again, is just bad coding but neither application is required for the computer to function.
     
    As for temperature. Ryzen 7 5800 both X and X3D are hot running chips. I suspect X3D even more so due to 3D cache. I have undervolted my X by 100mV and I dropped 7-8°C on air just by doing that. So if reseating doesn't help maybe you wanna give that a shot? Regardless, your temps do not seem dangerous (85°C is within spec).

    aDoomGuy got a reaction from Eigenvektor in Boot Disk - From Dual use to just boot   
    @Eigenvektor Yeah, I think what OP means he had a separate partition on his boot drive dedicated to certain files.
     
    OP, if that's the case. You can delete the partition in question and expand the partition containing your OS if there are no other partitions between the two. If there are any partitions between them maybe they too can be removed but they may be system partitions but please provide the screenshot Eigenvektor asked to properly advice you.
