I turned on my pc after 9 months alongside changing the cooler to a NHD-15 Chromax from a H100i Platinum. Now it won't get into bios.
The motherboard's stuck on the dram yellow led.
I tried the standard troubleshooting procedure for ram issues (removed cmos battery and drained the system out of power, repositioned the ram into A2 slot)
Still can't get into bios. I only have one stick of ram so can't check if the ram died. Is there's any other option to check if it's a ram issue or not?
Otherwise I'd have to rma the ram.
Specs:
i5-9600K
Asus Strix Z390-F
1x8gb Gskill Tridentz 3200mhz cl16
No gpu
I usually oc for people who aren't brave enough to tinker with their pc on their own (Not apus).
I guess I have to hold of for now until the gpu returns.
Just curious about it. I get a lot of cpu + mobo combos to test out. I just rented out my 1660S to my friend for some reasons.
Now, should I be concerned about testing cpus without a dedicated gpu?
If you set pime95 to smallest fft, it'll scorch a supernova like heat and it's pretty normal.
If you wanna test stability, try small fft and disable avx-512.
And for thermal limit test, disable avx2 and set small fft or blend. You're good to go
Yeah, Corsair one's are not on the list and they're the one tending to fail the most among others.
Is it the build or electrical, I dunno. But NZXT one's run quieter and die less in my experience.
My H100i Platinum died when I drove my 9600K to 5.1ghz. Replacement H150i sealed it at 91C.
My friend's Nhd15 kept it at 79-81C. Now waiting for a nhd15 chromax to show up on my door.
Lost around 40usd, but was worth it.
I'm currently running a TridentZ RGB 1x8gb 3200mhz CL14
I've got a good offer on a 1x16gb module. Can I run them together?
Also, Can I use same spec ram from different manufacturer?
