I'd say a 3600 or 3700 would be a pretty decent match. a 5600x could work too if u wanna have some extra room to upgrade ur GPU in the future.

alright so, my PC is running an R5 2600 on an MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC with 2x8gb sticks of HyperX ram with an old GTX 660. I've had this system for a lil over a year (the GPU is an older second hand one that I've had in here for around a month or 2). i used to have a Cooler Master 550w MWE Gold psu in there but i RMA'd it after some trouble. now I'm still running into the same problems with my new 2021 Corsair RM650x. my problem is basically that my PC won't turn on at all. no fans, nothing. i also have an old random psu from a Dell prebuilt that i plugged into my PC to see if it was the psu that was faulty. and when i did, the PC turned on fine. so i sent the MWE 550 back and got my new one. now after having this new one work perfectly fine for a few days it too has just stopped powering on the pc with it behaving the exact same as the MWE 550. so my question is: Is it possible that having these PSUs plugged into my mobo for a lil while killed them? and is that even possible? or is my mobo the problem? i sadly don't have a psu tester yet (stupid slow shipping from China lol) so i haven't been able to test whether it's a problem with the voltages. if any more info is required then I'd be more than happy to provide. i just wanna get back up n running tbh lol update: after testing my RM650x on a random test bench PC i had laying around it turns out the psu still works perfectly fine. so would it be reasonable to assume that the mobo is the culprit here? I'd rather not take the entire PC apart, send a part back, get a new part, only to have it still not work. also, sorry for the long read

nope nvm still chrashes

just uninstalled the drivers and tried the lastest 3 and one of em ended up working (i think)

ight so uh idrk where to start this but I've been getting weird chrashes since today. pc completely freezes and the extra 2 monitors turn off(more like go into stand-by tbh cause the screens are still on, just black) haven't done anything special with my pc lately so I have no clue what could've caused this. Ive checked my drives and they're all fine n healthy. i doubt anyone will be able to solve this cause it's quite a random problem and I've already tried plenty of things but yea... if y'all need any extra info or anything I'd be happy to supply it.

ight so uh i have an EVGA RTX 2060 KO. it has 1 displayport, 1 hdmi and 1 dvi. I have a triple monitor setup and im lookin to get a small display to show stuff like temps and stuff like that. since ive ran out of ports on my main GPU i was wondering if pluggin in one of my old shitty GPUs (think stuff from a GT210 to a Quadro FX580 or Radeon HD 5450) would maybe be an option to get sum more ports? i know that if i were to run a display of that GPU that i wouldnt be able to game on it or anything but i was just wondering if this is even possible and if its something worth trying, or if there are other solutions to my question then id be glad to hear em. thanks for readin, have a good one!

ok well it's 1AM rn so ignore any typos or anything of that kind. so uh I have some old PC's laying around that I wanna turn into a media pc to just stream some movies on my home network and stuff and I have 2 options for that. a Dell Optiplex 3020 with a dual core i3-4130 with a TDP of 54W and a Dell Precision T1500 with a quad core i7-860 with a TDP of 95W. so my question(s) was; whatd be better? a quad core or a dual core? im kinda leaning towards the i3 cause 1. the i3 is newer and supports hyperthreading and such. 2. it has a lower TDP which might give me the option to put a passive cooler on it for maximum quietness or something but a reason I thought the i7 might be the smarter choice is cause it has more cores... even though it is a lot older and runs on a slower architecture and stuff... so what are y'all's opinions? the i3? or the i7?

yea typo lol mean an rtx 2060

ok so I have a ryzen 5 2600, 16gb 3200mhz, gtx 2069 build rn and I just found a stash of old pcs and stuff. i found a pc with a lil quadro k2200. not the best but it's decent. I sometimes to sum relatively basic video editing (think along the lines of random AMVs) and im looking to start with blender. so I was thinking if it'd be smart to install that quadro in my build. I know the 2060 is perfectly capable of doing either of those things but since I always hear that quadro's are so good for stuff like that I thought I'd ask it here. of course it wouldn't be plugged in to my 16x slot cause i wanna keep that extra bandwidth for gaming but I was just wondering if it's something any of y'all have had experience with or any recommendations or suggestions regarding the topic. I do also have 2 other builds one has an i3-4130 and 8gb of ram and one has an i7-860 and 8gb of ram. I thought maybe I should just put the Quadro in one of those (probably the i7)? idk I just wanted yalls opinion on this whole matter.

did you do anything special with the pc before it stopped working? like moving it, unplugging certain things? and have u checked if the hard drive or ssd is plugged in correctly? it might be plugged in far enough for it to be recognized by the pc but not for it to actually transfer any data

personally id focus more on the gpu part of a laptop since the gpu is more important in most games and the difference between a destop card and a laptop card is pretty big so going for the 1650 ti in this case would probably give you better performance in most games. idk about that specific model tho but this is just something to keep in mind.

I recently bought the ultimate edition add-on pack and after having installed it my game chrashes when i try to start it up. i had this problem before when i didnt yet have the add-on pack but then all i had to do to fix it was close msi afterburner and riva tuner statistics but now when i try that it doesnt work. i have tried updating windows, updating my drivers, clean boot, reinstalling, and a lot more. nothing i could find on forums works...
