  1. It looks like it might be an RGB color space issue. However, it is set to "Full RGB" in the Adrenaline software. When I change from Full to Limited or any of the other options, I see almost no change.
  2. Each time my system boots up, I log in and then I have normal colors on the screen. After about 2 seconds, the color changes to be washed out. I included a before and after picture to illustrate the issue. I have tried updating the drivers on my GPU and multiple restarts with no luck. It doesn't seem to be the monitor but I will include all the info that I can. CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X GPU: Radeon RX 5700 OS: Windows 10 Education, 21H2 19044.1806 Monitor: ASUS VG249 I am not super knowledgeable about the rest of my system but if more information will help, let me know. Thank you in advance!
  3. Solved! Thanks! Looks like it was an issue with drawing too much power from a single outlet. I got a plug bar that is plugged into a different outlet and plugged in a little over half of my stuff there (fridge, printer, etc.) And used the other plug bar for the PC and some smaller draw units. I was playing for a few hours with no issues now! Thanks for all your help!
  4. I'll try using a different plugbar. So far, so good. I have two plugbars in the same outlet. With a bunch of stuff plugged in. Namely: two monitors, Eero wifi system, modem, small fan, ethernet switch, philips hue bridge, laser printer, and mini fridge along with the PC. These items are distributed among two different power strips. Should I try to only utilize one of those power strips there and find somewhere else to plug in the other one?
  5. I have had issues with my PC turning off randomly. At first, it happened about 2 times when I plugged in a qi wireless charger into the same plug bar/surge protector. Once I unplugged the qi wireless charger and unplugged the PC and plugged it back in, the PC would be able to turn back on. If I plugged in that qi wireless charger again, it would shut off. Then, I was playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and was able to play for about 45 minutes and all of a sudden, during a cut scene in the Devil at the Well quest, my PC shut off again. This time, however, I did not need to unplug it to restart the PC. I'm not sure how to test any of this correctly. Help is much appreciated.

Are there any issues I might run into here? I'm planning to have dual monitors with the basic dell being used in portrait mode for workflow things. Do I have enough power? Any compatability issues that PC part picker is not telling me?

  8. Alright, I updated it a little bit. Rplaced the CPU with the non-X version. Changed the T-Force 16gb 3000 to G.Skill 16gb 3200 Changed out the case Thanks for the help. Still asking around about the monitor situation and the power supply thing. But I appreciate it!

I want to use it mainly for when I work away from my desk or away from home. I already have a decent keyboard and mouse and headphones so I'm not looking to upgrade those at all. I currently have a gigabit switch connected to my modem but I only get a little less than 100 mbps connected to my laptop (most likely because I only pay for 100mbps from Spectrum) I have a few questions/concerns. So I wanted a little bit of RGB so that's why I got the t-force delta rgb memory. Not sure about the 3000 vs. 3200 etc. Is what I have fine? What problems can I expect? I'm not sure which GPU to go with. Everywhere I look, I'm seeing that GeForce is better for gaming but I'm not going to be gaming heavily or competitively at all. Also, when I search AMD Radeon RX 5700, I see MSI Radeon RX 5700. Is that the same thing? What differences can I expect? I also keep getting an error message for the PSU that says my motherboard has a 4-pin ATX power connector but my PSU does not. Should I be worried? I read that it doesn't matter but I'm not sure what it is used for? The BIG question is about the dual monitors. I want to set up one monitor (the ASUS) as my main monitor where I do most of my gaming. But I want to have the secondary monitor setup in portrait mode to the left of the main monitor when I am working on music or other workflow stuff. Are there any issues I could run into with this build? I'm planning to play at 1080p at 144 hz ish. I don't need super fast or 4k for my monitors. Also, would I need anything in addition to this? This is my first build. Thanks for reading through all of this. I appreciate any help you guys can give me!
