      Make a thread here: https://linustechtips.com/main/forum/5-cpus-motherboards-and-memory/

       

      Be sure to provide the name of the exact RAM set you're using, the exact name of the motherboard, which slots of the motherboard you're using and the exact issue (which lights are on, etc.). That way the community can help you out.

      Linus rarely responds to theads he's tagged in, almost never people commenting on his own profile asking for troubleshooting advice. 

  4. Hello! I'm planning around building a PC rig with a Ryzen 3950x CPU and 2080ti GPU, I may be overclocking, I haven't decided yet. I'm cross between what type of cooling I should have. I've watched videos, but still don't know what I should do. This rig is already costing a lot but it is completely worth it, lmao. I know what coolers I'm thinking about getting. For water, NZXT Kraken Z63 with LCD display. $250 For air, DEEPCOOL GAMMAX GTE V2. $30-$40ish Yes I see the price difference! lmao. Both allow for basic overclocking, but of course the water (I think) can allow more. I'm truly split, I've also never had a water cooled system so I'm kinda worried about it. Also with money. Thank you!
  5. Thank you for the information!
  6. hello! I'm really curious on what hz monitor(s) I should get for my new build that I can hopefully build soon. I'm not worried on what brand I should get for a monitor but more on what hz I should get. I know 144hz is the the "ideal/normal" for gaming, or should I spend more money just to get myself to 240hz monitor(s)? I'm truly stumped on making a decision and thought I could use some help, thx you! :)
