  1. Since m.2 is basically PCIe it's technically possible but since the mobo is not setup for such high throughput requirements. It'll likely just fail. There's a chance it could work though just bare in mind it's a slim chance. They will not run in SLI\Crossfire since both require an additional chip between all the slots that support it. Since your mobo only has a single PCIe slot, it doesn't have any support for SLI\Crossfire. Since FAH isn't a game that needs to keep frames in sync, it can take full advantage of any and all processors in your system.
  2. Putting a sleeve on it will not affect it. Especially since it's not really about carrying more power but controlling interference [ground bounce] thus allowing more power over the same wires. What is your gfx card? If it pulls ~125w or less, there is nothing to worry about.
  3. Only if it's getting up to 97-100c. Wont cause damage, it'll just downclock.
  4. Most likely a little too much/little tim in that specific spot on the cpu package. Not much you can do without tearing the laptop apart.
  5. Dual 6 pin is recommend over a single for the same reason the 8 pin was introduced. To spread the load over more wires. Unless you've got a high end card though, it's not something to worry about.
  6. DVI does support up to 2560x1600@60. Since HDMI is basically just DVI plus audio, the problem is likely the TMDS transmitter not being fully functional.
  7. Haven't seen huge amounts of bitching so just a select few as per usual.
  8. In theory it should work as all USB revisions are backwards compatible. USB1 is much slower compared to USB2. It won't damage anything.
  9. Most likely the gfx card is at fault.
  10. As it's just been released, no one really knows what the issue could be. What's listed above could refer any number of things. IW will already have this crash log so just wait for an update. Just make sure windows and drivers are up to date.
  11. RST is just a utility. Not a driver. The RAID array itself is setup in the BIOS. As you've already done. Where does it say the array is a 7200rpm drive?
  12. That mobo has an Intel RAID chip. Install RST.
  13. If you have an Intel RAID chip, you'll need to install Intel's RST. What mobo do you have? Windows (or any OS) doesn't know the difference between an array of HDDs or SSDs. The RAID controller bundles the drives and presents the bundle as a generic 'disk' to the OS. The RAID controller will do any necessary defragging.
  14. The difference between 4k and 8k sectors is so tiny, you will not see any difference. If you are concerned about the life of your SSD, why is your OS on it?
  15. Other than the HDMI. https://www.amazon.co.uk/AmazonBasics-HL-007269-DisplayPort-DVI-Cable/dp/B014RWWWT8/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=dp+to+dvi&qid=1583085988&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExTkRWSVc4UzAwNFJFJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUExMDExMDU5MVg3NE1SMTZHNjBYTSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMzUzODgwMzVQUk9GS0FXM0ZONiZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=
  16. UNETBOOTIN is almost 13 years old. And it doesn't support the creation of Manjaro USB disks. (as you found out) Whoever said "It just works" in relation to WiFi on Linux clearly has no idea. WiFi support on Linux has always been bad. It's only in the last few years that things have been getting better. Realtek is known for being behind on their support if they provide any at all.
  17. There is no need to do anything to Windows or any other OS when updating BIOS. That was true in the old days and it comes from an abundance of caution. These days though 99% of the time, Using DDU is all that's needed, if at all. Of course if you have any more questions or problems, please ask.
  18. The memory controller is on the CPU, Hence multiple QVLs. Pinnacle Ridge (2000) chips only supports up to 3200mhz, Matisse (3000) chips support up to 4000mhz. In any case though, the RAM will slow to whatever speed all components can handle. Your mobo will already have a BIOS that supports 3rd gen Ryzen. Unless it's been sitting on the shelf for like 6 months. XMP stands for eXtreme Memory Profile. Was originally developed by Intel but is not specific to them. The memory modules themselves carry a overclock profile that just needs to be loaded by the BIOS. XMP will only affect the RAM. It's best to leave the infinity fabric at default. It's a finicky thing.
  19. What sort of project scope are we talking here? Unless this server is mobile for some reason, there is no benefit to 2.5" drives. If all it's doing is storing sub 2.5mb pfps then a 5.4k or 7.2k RPM drive is most likely fine. An SSD would only be useful if there is likely to be massive rushes of requests (eg 1000's) on a regular basis.
  20. Update BIOS once everything is running unless of course an update is required for it to function in the first place. Some mobo allow the BIOS to be updated with just power but not many. The manual will state the requirements. Your mobo will probably already have the latest or penultimate update, so check if it actually needs an update. Infinity Fabric is an AMD thing and is in essence the motherboard of your CPU. DDR stands for Double Data Rate. The actual speed is 1800mhz but because it deals with 2 bits of data per cycle, it's effective speed is doubled thus 3600mhz. If XMP is there, you should enable it.
  21. Intel 10th gen and Ryzen 3rd gen have both released*. It'll be a little while longer until we get any new architecture. For single threaded games, Intel 9900KS. For everything else, Ryzen 3950X.
  22. The Ultra version has a 30mhz higher boost and was originally 10USD more expensive. EVGA has discounted it by 30USD but not the non ultra version.
