  1. I Have a MSI mobo myself and it does the steps of CPU, memory, GPU tests, looks like right when it is about to perform a GPU test it cuts off and this might be a safety feature with the power supply to prevent under voltage. Sense a 770 GPU was the previous card, the TDP of the previous GPU would demand less from the power supply. That is why I've suspected the powersupply But I also recommended to check other connections and perform bios reset before resorting towards the PSU as a conclusion.
  2. The power supply has enough watts to run this system, but what bothers me is that it's a bronze rated 80+. I would suspect the PSU, but what might help is checking each power connection even the PCIE connection on the graphics card, or performing a bios reset to clear previous settings.
  3. What power supply do you have, because that would be the next thing I'd suspect.
  4. waterblock, if you still have your original loop. Why? Because AIO still use a mix of metals in their loops rather than just using copper. A custom loop would perform better than any AIO on the market.
  5. If it is hardware, it wouldn't reach safe mode in windows, it is most likely a fault with the OS. Recommend having a windows copy on a thumb drive but rather trying to reinstall the OS, use the recovery side of it and repair your startup. If that doesn't work, might need to just reinstall the OS.
  6. looks like the CPU was dragged across the socket... though yes, cant really tell from this picture, like WereCatf said
  7. ah... right this, ok well the boost cock in Ryzens work a little different, only selected cores get boosted to prevent thermal throttling or not enough wattage going to the CPU caused by the motherboard configuration. This also increases overall performance in the long run. Selected cores are boosted for some workloads on the CPU, also known as Precision Boost. Gamers Nexus explains this in detail as well.
  8. might just be thermal throttling that core, which would indicate that the thermal compound wasn't applied evenly if that is the case.
  9. - Cougar GX-F Gold 650W - 2 year? ew... - Super Flower Leadex Gold II 650W - 7 years - Corsair RM 2019 Gold 650W - 10 years - Seasonic Focus GX Gold 650W - 10 years
  10. Then again... i guess even great manufactures fall from greatness, time to time Also might be worth a read...
  11. nope, though I wish I did, from what I've heard they make great PSU's, even Linus talks about them. No, im currently using a Corsair AX 760 watt PSU, 80+ Platinum rating, also the higher the rating the better.
  12. Seasonic, they tend to... make REALLY GOOD PSU's The worse thing you can do to a PC is going cheep on the PSU, you get a bad PSU, chances are it will fry everything in the future.
  13. Thanks what if I use a 360mm thin rad with the 120mm? Mount the 360 forward facing and have the 120 in the rear. I've also been thinking about this too...
  14. Been thinking on starting a custom hard line loop, but I've always been running into common comments or reviews on current kits like the Thermaltake with the thin Copper Rad that have pump failures and leaks. So... I've decided to plung into hardware graveyard (attic) to find a old Danger Den water cooling kit, with G1/4 holes and clamp on fittings for soft tube setup. The kit includes a 5.25 Res drive bay, with soft tubes, a Danger Den copper block that doesn't use fins but rather a prong setup inside the cooler, with a copper 120mm rad and a D5T pump from LAING. Question I have is... is it worth to use it on a custom loop with updated fittings, or should I just get a new kit? Now I do know that this rad needs to be... cleaned... badly but this unit has been sitting upstairs (with coolant inside) for a long period of time and never sprung a leak.
  15. I'm planning on doing a loop myself, but what might be helpful for people here is a picture, and what kind of pump you are using, like if you have a D5 pump or something else. The only thing I can think of that might cause this is if you are forcing air though the lines to somewhere else, like the rad or heatsink but it isn't going back to the res, this can possibly cause a vacuum in the line as air is forced out but not put back.
  16. kindof funny how the arrangement is... Local host is my main PC, Ryzen 3700X with a GTX 1080 2nd PC is a old HP laptop 2740p with a 1st gen i7 and 8gb of ram, 120gb SSD 3rd PC is a mid age HP laptop 810G2 with a 4th gen i7 and 12gb of ram, 256gb SSD 4th PC is a 2017 model of the Samsung Notebook 9 pro with 16gb of ram, intel 7th gen i7 with a RX 540 graphics
  17. booting up some old and new laptops I had laying around... tied them to one workstation for remote control. I'm just here to fight this, not for the keys or anything else (though i'd be happy if I did win anything) as long as we find a cure or a means to stop this disease, is my ultimate goal for now. Being under Quarantine for the next 10 days is going to be... slow...
  18. it was a workstation laptop, 12gb of ram with a 4th gen i7.
  19. Might be trying to check the thumb drive that you have the installation media on... hmmm *head scratching noises*
  20. Still possible but unlikely. during the installation try doing check disk. you can access command prompt by pressing f10 (while in the installation process) example:
  21. I used to run a server at home myself, FTB Ultimate at the time, and worked on creative because alot of things in FTB take forever to get... like Draconic reactors and ME computers. Large projects that require chunk loaders to function and to prevent failure or potential overload, can take up a large portion of not only the memory, but the pipeline of the network.
  22. FTB eats memory for breakfast... 6gb might not be good enough
  23. Either one would be fine, probably look at the 80+ rating, higher the rating the better.
  24. checked Event Viewer for a Error code? Or do a dxdiag... Might wana post a log here for others to check.
