Thank you, I'll make sure to get a Pro License. I switched to the Fractal R5 which from what I can tell seems to get better airflow while still being decently priced and containing a ton of drive bays. https://www.fractal-design.com/products/cases/define/define-r5/black/ I did also swap to a i7-13700F but forgot to click save.

If I were to use the 4x48gb kit that @brob recommended what exactly would the CPU do about the extra ram. I get the mobo's limit is 192gb but the CPU is only 128gb?

Definitely on Creative Suite. He has 4 monitors, 2 DP and 2 HDMI. He does not want to upgrade or change those, from my recollection the main 2 are 70 or 80hz, 1440p, and decent color accuracy.

I'm building a PC for a relative's small business the budget for the parts is $2000 $1900. He plans to mainly do photo and video editing, but wants something completely overkill that will last him another 8 years or so. I'm based in the US. Storage is not included because he already has like an 8tb m.2 and a lot of other HDDs and SSDs that I'm going to reuse. He was very particular about having an Intel CPU and 128gb of ram. Most of the builds I've done have been on stricter budgets so I want to sanity check that I'm not making any mistakes. Thank you in advance anyone who can provide guidance! https://pcpartpicker.com/user/ryanmatt/saved/#view=6MT7wP

As much as I wished you had mentioned that before it worked. BIOS said version 3003. Thank you all for your help.

Will do, I'll report back

What exactly is the BIOS renamer tool? and with that can I just use the .cap file to install the BIOS leaving it with it's default name?

So somewhat recently for the holidays I got a 3900x. I have a B450-F motherboard and based on what I've read, it's possible to use gen 3 ryzen with my board. So far I've been only able to update by motherboard's BIOS to version 0504. My first question is whether this version supports gen 3 ryzen. And if not how can I get/install a version that does. Just to see if this helps, EZ Update in AI Suite 3 was unable to find a newer version then this when checking from the internet. Thanks in advance.

The clock speed is about 3.35 GHz , the power plan did seem to be the problem. Thank you for all the help

Balanced seems to have increased my FPS somewhat dramatically, the temps for the CPU are around 40 and around 60 for the GPU

It's on power saver, the other options I have are high performance and AMD Ryzen Balanced

GPU is settling around 40% Edit: While playing Rust

Hi, first of all, thank you for taking the time to read through my rather simple question. Basically I've been experiencing low frame rates in Rust. My immediate thought was to check the ram, after way too much deliberation, I figured it wasn't that. Now I thought to look to my CPU and something that I found odd is that it's a 3.40 GHz base clock and it's only running at 2.20 GHz under the load of Rust. I was wondering if one this would be influencing the performance and the FPS I'm getting and in-game. And two if so, how I could go about fixing it. The specs of my pc are as follows: CPU: Ryzen 7 1700x 3.4 GHz GPU: Nvidia GTX 1080 OEM card 8GB SSD: 1 TB Samsung 860 Evo HDD: 3TB 7200RPM Samsung Ram: 32GB DDR4 3200MHz G-Skill Memory Motherboard: B450-F Thank you in advance for any help you can give. It is also only at 30% utilization while I play Rust
