I changed my PSU a week ago to MEG Ai1300P and it has a built-in monitoring feature. One of the feature is zero-rpm fan until 70 Degree Celsius. Thus my PSU was reaching about 67 Degree Celsius in game and still no fan. I then manually turned on the fan and it started blowing out, what I would call "electric smell". Should I worry that something is burnt? Or are new PSU like this and it can reach 100 Degrees and still be fine?

I'm educated, so this is more or less normal?

My PC is making a ticking (dud) sound every ~5sec and I suspect it may be one of my hdd. However, I ran Windows error checking on that disk and found nothing wrong. The strangest thing is that that ticking sound is completely gone after utilizing that hdd. Be it playing a video or copy and pasting files. But when the disk is under 100% load, on top of the disk sound, it also has like a radio "tzzzzz" sound with it. But only under heavy load. Below is a short clip I recorded that has "dud" sound, maybe don't use headphones to listen to it. https://youtube.com/shorts/8KKgTfQkM3w?si=_gfoHjR1jHHvaHwE

7900xtx experiencing random "driver timeout" while in games
RJ56Hours replied to RJ56Hours's topic in Troubleshooting
is that right, man I really regret ever switching to AMD, thx for ur advice -
As titled, 5800x3d, 32GB ram@3200, 7900xtx, tuf x570-plus, Corsair psu (in use for 6yrs). Had this card for nearly 8 months, only been having freezes or crashes recently. Randomly while gaming, it would freeze the screen for a couple seconds w/sound, then go into black screen w/out sound. Then sometimes I could call up manager and terminate the game I was running, or when I couldn't, I would need to do a pc restart. But whenever the pc didn't need a restart, I would see the AMD "driver timeout" message, and in some games I play, namely Horizon Forbidden West & Valorant would have a message of their own, sort of saying "Your video driver is too old, please update to latest". However, I have twice, used DDU in safemode to remove Nividia and AMD drivers, and did a fresh install of the latest AMD drivers. Once after I switched my 2080ti to 7900xtx 8 months ago, and once today. I also did a run of memtest and it passed. MB bios was also updated to the latest. All default clock for everything. The temps I have in games for cpu and gpu are ~70 degree Celsius & ~50 degree Celsius. The temps are pretty stable and within acceptable limits. I'm now completely out of ideas, would appreciate if there's any advice at all. Thanks in advance.

My monitor is losing signal and gaining back constantly
RJ56Hours replied to RJ56Hours's topic in Troubleshooting
well, I tried the monitor with my laptop with the same hdmi cable, and it worked. So, not the monitor that's fault. My windows is up to date, last i checked at least. I've done nothing between it being broken and fine. I'm so annoyed rn -
my spec: 5800x3d Nitro+ 7900xtx 32GB Ram x570 plus tuf gaming mb rm1000x psu As titled, the screen keeps turning back up and down. I bought a new 7900xtx and 5800x3d a little over a week ago, during the last week, everything was fine, I could game ok, temps were good etc Until today I returned from work, I turned on the pc and saw no signal from the monitor. I then switched from DP to HDMI, it was fine for a minute, then started losing signal again and recovering again. So that's the cables eliminated. below is how my monitor reacted. this vid shows me starting the computer and getting to login screen After this, I opened the computer case and removed the gpu and then reseated it. Repluged all the cables. Take the cpu out and and put the cpu cooler back on it. Nothing worked. So guys, could this be a faulty gpu? I only got it like a week ago. It wouldn't be psu, cause it wouldn't run at all; it would not be the cpu cuz then it would also not run at all. Just by looking at the case, everything is in working order, gpu fan is spinning, all the order components are also working. Please send help!! Thanks in advance.

do you mean ground loop? I have the speaker on the same power bar that has my PC PSU, Monitor Power Adapter, and my height adjustable desk's motor. Shouldn't be ground loop. Anyways, I've decided to send the speaker to have a look.

Thanks for your response, I think the noise I have right now is something like "white noise". It's most obvious when I turn the volume to 1%-20% - where there sound input but not really loud enough to cover the "hissing noise". Another more obvious situation is voices, like when I'm using it in conversation apps like in Discord. Where there is (sound) output, BUT there's not really any sound, then I'll be able to hear the "hissing sound". Does this make sense? The point is, I think the "hissing sound" exists all the time, and the actual sound/content I'm playing actually covers it during normal usage. I've searched online and found people saying this maybe due to a blown capacitor? I mean I do turn it up to 11 all the time during using it. I am using the speaker only to adjust volume, and set Windows sound to 100% all the time.

So from the above vids, you can hear sort of a "hissing noise", the noise is identical to when a radio is not tuned on the right frequency, that it makes like a "sssssssss sound". This noise scales with the volume, but the content playing will eventually cover it. There may also be a downgrade in sound quality since I've noticed this issue, but then again, not really an audiophile, so maybe it's just me being paranoid. The speaker model is Q Acoustics M20. I believe it's a active & passive speaker combo, and this noise can be heard in both speakers. I've only owned it for a month and its repair center is sort of far away from my place, so I want to make sure that I'm not just paranoid and confirm that this noise is normal or else. Thanks in advance!

4070ti vs 7900xtx or splurge for 4080?
RJ56Hours replied to Erundil's topic in New Builds and Planning
i am curious on why Frame Gen is worthless. I am also deciding between 4080 and 7900xtx. Choosing AMD would mean no DLSS 3 and FG, leaving me with only FSR 2. I tend to max out the graphics settings + ray trace so those I assume DLSS 3 + FG are useful tools. -
