  1. Thanks a lot for the help, eventually I took out the power switch cable (it was well connected and worked before), booted up the pc by shorting the 2 pins and it worked. It works with the power switch as well now, no idea why. THank you
  2. I don't have anything Like that in the Box
  3. How would I connect speakers to those speaker pins?
  4. Motherboard is Asus Prime B360-Plus, trying to find out what kind of error message it shows
  5. My 8700 is doing the same thing and it has an IGPU, I used it before. Asus Prime B360 PLUS
  6. Yes, it has, but the PC doesn't start with the IGPU neither, and I made sure everything was well conected on the GPU
  7. BLACK SCREEN Hi guys, today I mounted a full pc for a friend (16gb ram RX590 Ryzen 5 3600), the PC didn't boot, (my 5th build), all the fans started spining, the GPU didn't light up, the motherboard did, but we could even charge our phone on the USB ports. I thought I'd try the ram and GPU on my pc (we tried on both the HDMI from the GPU and MOBO) , I have an i7 8700 , 16gb ram and a 2070SUPER. We tried the RAM, the pc booted shut down and then booted again and I got to windows, all amazing, we crossed out the RAM as a possible problem. I then tried his GPU (RX 590) on my pc, the GPU leds got lit up this time but the screens were still black. I decided to take the GPU out and put mine (2070) back in again AND.... I can't start my pc. Neither with a video signal from the GPU nor from the Motherboard. I even took the card out, cleared the CMOS, all I could think, and my pc just doesn't post any image(all the GPU, fan , MOBO lights and fans are on.) HELP ME Pleaseeeeeeee I didn't change anything else on the computer

  9. Hey guys

    I'm wondering what the risks/rewards are to running my PC case without the front panel to improve cooling performance. The panel only has air intakes in the sides and a small opening in the front

    What do you think?

    Thank you in advance

      Grab a magnetic fan filter (few bucks on ebay) to slap on the front to reduce the amount of dust that gets in and you should be right.

      I took part of the front panel off my BeQuiet Silent Base 800 due to poor airflow (it's a silence optimised case so airflow wasn't the greatest). Much better on temperatures, little louder without the front panel with its sound dampening material but the fans don't need to work so hard so it balances out.

      Thank you for the answer! How big is your fan filter? I only seem to find 240mm ones and for the whole front I would need 3x 140mm size, is there any problem if I get 3 140mm individual filters? thank you

      My fan filter came with the case. It's 280mm (2x140mm).

      I don't see any reason why 3x 140mm fan filters wouldn't work.

  10. No, I don't. I understand what you mean about the 1440p, and it makes sense, but it was a personal choice to play at high FPS 1080p instead of lower FPS 1440p, and I just did not expect it to not work the it does, some lower cards like the 2060 are getting more fps than I am in the same games because they're fully utilized, I'll try to get the card back to the store and get another 2070 model to try to notice any changes
  11. I have installed the same games in both the ssd and the hdd to notice if there is any difference, but they don't work in neither of them at full load.
  12. Yes, it is always at 4.2/4.3 ghz (think the max is 4.5ghz) and I've never seen it go over 60º outside of cinebench, usually is about 50ºC
  13. I have it in dual channel, already checked with CPU z, it says dual
  14. Off both, doesn't seem to have any effect which drive I am using
  15. Good afternoon, guys I bought a new pc with an i7 8700 (hyper 212 black) Asus Prime b360 Plus mb, RTX 2070 Msi Ventus, 16gb 2666mhz Hyper X ram, 480 ssd, 1tb hdd and a 620w seasonic 80+ bronze psu. All in a corsair case with decent 3 fan airflow. When I play any demanding game at 1080 like Tomb Raider, GTA, Far Cry 5 etc the GPU usage is at 60-75% most of the time, and I have no idea why, I looked in the motherboard, Nvidia settings, Nvidia Experience, power management, etc but it seems like the GPU just doesn't want to work more. When I do a stress test it boosts up to 99%, but in normal games it doesn't, and in some scenes I am barely getting 60 FPS in games because the GPU is at 60%, which means my 144hz monitor isn't being used properly. Does any of you have any suggestion? If I push the resolution scaling to 1.5 or 2 in most games the GPU gets pinned at 90/95%, but I really wanted the 1080p ultra grafics high framerate experience with the 2070. I tried overclocking it (got 180 mhz on the clock and 500 on the memory and increased power allowance as much as I could) but all the GPU seems to do is run at a lesser % and output roughly the same amount of FPS. The temperature never goes beyong 70º even with the GPU OC'd, and it is something sitting in these heavy games at 60º just chilling lmao. The CPU is probably not the bottleneck, as in these games it doesn't go over 30%/40% usage and it never goes over 55º. Does anyone have any tips? I reinstalled winodws, drivers, updated BIOS and Windows and nothing seems to work. THanks a Lot
