Hey I also built the PC with Omess. The PC just boots into safe mode even though XMP is disabled. Tried everything now even cleared the CMOS, unable to find where the BIOS battery is tho, maybe it’s under the PROART plastic plate. We have looked around now and we do see somone more lucky with the same board has managed 4 sticks (not kit) up to 6000MHz. So I am guessing this is just random luck based on both the RAM controller on CPU and the RAM itself. Yea we checked out the QVL list before buying ram, we first looked at 4 stick sets but nothing was in store super long waiting time and one of the PC’s for editing had just died so needed something fast. Altought there are some 4 sticks listed there on the QVL even those ones are also just listed for socket support 1 and 2 and not 4, so we thought based on PC building before (this was with DDR4 RAM) since both the 2x32 kit and 4x32 kit had the exact same specs and even the socket support were the same it was a good chance it could work. But yea as we now have figured out 4 sticks of DDR5 is not stable at all yet, even in 2024 which is insane. Even manufacturers say that buying 4 stick kits are not guaranteed to work, just have a higher percentage of them working since it’s the same batch. So all in all we just gonna return them and not buy the 4 stick kits as well since there is no support for 4 socket support on them as well. Gonna choose 2x48GB for now.

Hi, I just bought the ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME SSD for my system. I am having issues installing Windows 10 Home on this drive, for some reason it is not showing up as an UEFI drive. I have tried everything. Disabled CMOS, enabled Safe Boot etc. Nothing seems to work. The drive is working, I can copy files to the drive and back again so no issues there. Any ideas on what might be causing this issue? Setup: OS: Windows 10 Home Motherboard: MSI B450 Gaming PRO Carbon AC | Bios version latest: 7B85v1B RAM: G.Skill Aegis 32 GB DDR4-3000 CPU: AMD Ryzen 3700x Cooler: Deepcool Castle 360 RGB GPU: Vega 56 Powercolor Red Dragon NVME SSD: ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro 1 TB PSU: RM750x Hope I can get this fixed. Thank You!

Oh I can see that there is a typo. The cheapest RTX "Super" is of course the standard version.

Hi all, I am looking to upgrade my now 6 year old PC. (Bit stupid of me of not doing this over time). I am having some throttling issues with my current config, especially when I am downloading things (my cpu spikes up to 100%) everything starts to lag and stutter. I am having difficulties in choosing what I want to upgrade. With my current config it is almost even more economic for me to just buy a brand new PC where I am from, when I get to a certain price point. I am a casual gamer, my favorite games are usually openworld and single player. Gaming at 1080p. I have one ultrawide 34inch screen (AMD freesync) and one 24inch monitor. Both are 144hz. I am now looking to use my PC for video editing etc. So I am widening my use cases. I will post the parts I have looked at in USD converted from my currency. These are the parts that I want to change: - GTX 780 standard MSI version (nothing fancy with multiple fans etc.) - i7-4770k - MSI z87-G45 - 16GB RAM clocked at 1666MHz or 1333MHz cannot remember. Is way to low anyway by today's standards I believe. This is my PSU I think it should be more than enough: - 650W power supply These are the parts that I have looked at: Motherboards: - ASUS ROG Strix B450-F GAMING - Price - $129.88 (on sale in my country 24% off) I have read something about the VRM on this board, however I am not into OC that much. - MSI B450 TOMAHAWK - Price - $128 (so just the same as asus) CPU: - AMD Ryzen 7 3700x - Price - $422.95 RAM: - G.SKILL Aegis DDR4 32GB 3000MHZ - Price - $161.40 (I have no experience in RAM, these ones are the cheapest I could find) GPU: - RTX 2060 Super - Price - Starts at $505.41 (this is way to expensive for me considering I can now just buy a new pc when everything is put together...) - RTX 2060 Super - Price - Starts at $422.95 - Radeon 5700 XT - Price - $515.90 (I have read that people should wait for third parties to create their own versions, with better cooling. Again I am not into OC) - PowerColor Radeon RX VEGA 56 Red Dragon - $341.54 (on sale) Nobody sells the Nvidia 10 series anymore, (if somebody does it is extremely overpriced for some reason) and I do not want to buy it from the second hand market. Because a lot of them have been used by miners. Was very profitable here in my country for a while. Any advice/guidance would be helpfull! - Pythones
