thanks imma try thank!

Also not familiar of the paperclip test....

I did test it with one stick of ram in both slots tho... But isnt the "2133mgz" for one stick anyways?

yeah thats what i was thinking with the cpu... It says supports 8th gen But i thought it meant like 8th gen and down ya know. I prob should have looked at the manufactures website...

Thanks, spent hours trying to work it out. First time building a pc from scratch! Unfortunately dont have more DDR4 ram around cause my pc is DDR3. So talking to retail place to see if I can return. Thanks for the help! Wish me luck on my return!

Hello, So recently went to build a pc for my friend is coming for a old laptop, I brought a prebuild and have been upgrading ever since i got it 5 years ago and learnt a lot. So brought new parts plus some of my left overs, I received all the new parts today and decided its time to put it together. I watch a step by step YouTube tutorial while I was building it just to make sure i did miss a step. Everything went smooth till it came to the boot up. I pressed the power button and the fans turned out for less the a second and then instantly turned off. I then trouble shot for hours, looking at forms and watching YouTube Videos and learnt it could be lots of things. I tried: Unplugging everything and re-plugging back in Going do to the minimal (MB, CPU, PSU, Ram) Putting my own CPU for my build All failed... So here I am! Please help! Parts im using: ASUS Prime H310M-K mATX Motherboard Cooler Master MWE Gold 650W 80Plus Gold Power Supply 2x8GB Kingston HyperX Fury DDR4 2666MHz Gaming RAM Intel Pentium G4400 ASUS R7360 2GB Other ideas i thought it could be: Faulty Motherboard Faulty PSU Too old of proccessor Please Help!

But the thing is that it was doing the whole freezing before I upgraded the ram. I upgraded my ram cause I thought I might needed more. And then it just hasn’t solved it so I don’t think it’s the ram that’s causing the freezing.

All goods, so I have completed that.

F9 brings up the option to change the date and time haha. Do you mean F5 for default

I’m not sure. That’s the back of the box of my ram. And I’m pretty sure my motherboard doesn’t support DDR4

I’m not very advanced with bios screen so I can seem to find what your talking about. My Bios is ASUS UEFI but pressing F9 doesn’t do anything.

I upgraded my CPU, RAM and GPU

Hey! So I brought a prebuilt pc of a gaming company back in 2015 (I know eww prebuilds but that all the money I had at the time) anyways I have been upgrading it ever since. But lately my pc has been freezing, I can’t move the mouse I can’t alt control delete. So I have to turn it off at the power button to get it to respond at all. Normally when it crashes I might have a game open (Overwatch, Dead by Daylight and Minecraft) and maybe a YouTube video playing with discord and Spotify idling in the background. Or it’s even happened just watching a live stream on twitch. I have 3 ideas of what it could be but want some confirmation before I go and buy a pc part that won’t fix my problem. 1. My PSU isn’t able to supply enough power to all my new parts 2. My motherboard can’t keep up with my new parts 3. I run my main monitor off my graphics card and my second one off my motherboard... so my second monitor could be causing that problem? My PC Specs: Intel i7 6700 CPU HyperX DDR3 8gb Ram (x2) NIVIDA GeForxe GTX 960 Graphic Card Asus H110M-A D3 Motherboard Cobra power RX-500ae 500w PSU Windows 10 64bit Attached is a photo of my task manager when it crashed. Ask any questions you need!
