I've been noticing that in most games I have weird shadows and lighting, most of them easily ignorable but a few of those are quite annoying. Example below is in Hogwarts Legacy. You can see in the video how the hypogriff casts long shadows in the water and how the lighting changes quite fast. This happens in basically every game. Anyone know what this is? How do I fix this? PC Specs: i5-12600K Cooled by a NH-D15 32GB DDR4 RAM 3200Mhz Gigabyte Z690 Gaming X DDR4 Zotac RTX 2070 Super XPG Core Reactor 850W

Latest BIOS, XMP working again, keeps happening
-
Still happens, gonna try to update my BIOS, I was having trouble with memory stability, couldn't turn XMP on anymore
-
Yep. its all the way to quality
-
2070 Super on latest drivers.
-
Already did the DDU thing. Kerbal is most noticeable but it seems to happen in every game, some issues are more discreet and other more noticeable, but always there
-
For a while now every game i play has broken AA or shadows and im slowing losing my mind. It varies from game to game but when i was playing KSP today it was very noticeable so i recorded it. Anyone have any idea what might be causing this and how do i fix it?

So i just built my new system, installed windows 11 and tried to play some Valorant when the anti-cheat error pops up saying that i must have tpm 2.0 and secure boot enabled. TPM is enabled in BIOS, secure boot too but when i checked the secure boot state in windows it appear as it is off when it is activated in BIOS, how do i fix this?

Budget (including currency): R$1000,00 Country: Brazil Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Ansys, SolidWorks and Gaming Other details: So i just bought the new alder lake i5 chip and i was running the 3700x before that. I know that intel is way more power hungry than amd and my concern is if my psu will be enough for my current build. I have a RM650 and my system is the following: i5-12600K, Zotac 2070 Super, 32GB RAM, 256gb XPG NVme, 512GB Adata NVme, 1TB Seagate HDD. I am tempted to upgrade to a 850W power supply but i dont know if its truly necessary.

Well guys, i finally gave in. With my CPU and Mobo RMA approved and getting my money back for both. I was going to get a 5800X but i changed my mind and decided to try the new Alder Lake chips. Im leaving one buggy platform to a probably buggier plataform since its brand new. Wish you guys all the luck and hope that they fix it real soon, it was a pain in my ass.
-
Funny story here, my mobo died and its my third mobo death in the year so i decided to rma everything(mobo, cpu and psu) and in the amd rma i mentioned basically the ftpm thing and it was approved, they gave me my money back(R$2850 ,1U$=5,6R$ so you do the math. I paid R$2170 so thats a clear win lol).Im hoping that with a new mobo and new cpu(5800X) the issue will be solved for me

I have a theory of what happened, at my first post i mentioned that the pwm functionality of my AIO fans was not working properly and i thought it was the fans, i have the wraith prism cooler that came with my cpu and tested the pc with it, no luck. I believe that my motherboard cpu fan header fried for some reason(2A limit , 2 0.4A fans connected to it) and now the board is having trouble powering on too, some electrical issue is happening here and its not the first time i have a fried board in this setup. Im activating the RMA for the board that is clearly bad, and im talking with Corsair Support and they said i could send my PSU to them so they can properly test it and see if my psu is the bad guy, if it is they will send me a new one. I thank you guys for all the help here but i think this issue is now closed. Fried board, possible defective psu killing boards.

Well, CPU light problem returned, did a few tests and confirmed its not CPU fan related, that fix was just a placebo it seems. A few days prior to rebuilding i updated my BIOS could that be it? I tried clearing CMOS and no luck, can i downgrade to an older BIOS using the bios flashback feature?
-
I will give it a few days just to confirm the issue is truly gone.
-
So far so good, as for the cpu i did not take it out of the motherboard during the transfer so i don't think it's that it's the cause.
-
This only started to happen after i changed my case(i also updated my bios a day prior), so the most likely probabilty is that during the transfer of my build something was loose or did something wrong, pc components don't just start to do this out of nothing.
-
Today everything continues to be ok. Im starting to think it could be the fan hub that i changed for the splitter, it explains why the cpu light was on(no cpu fan detected) and it was the only thing that i changed so far, the only way that this explains the shutdowns is if it failed while the pc was on, so the cpu overheated and system got shutdown i guess?
-
Well, today there was nothing so good sign i guess, and i noticed that in windows i have it set to neve sleep, it just turns the screen off after 10min
-
Yeah everytime the pc should be asleep but was shutdown.Tomorrow im gonna sit right through it to see what happens haha
-
It's not that the hub did not work, i noticed that when the cpu light was on the AIO fans were not spinning, during the normal boot i noticed that they only start to spin after the cpu check is done. Maybe it was the hub, maybe it wasn't. And by the disk, you mean my hard drive? I have 2 NVMes and 1 HDD
-
I mean, the random shutdown is probably the cause of the cpu light, for both of these issues to occur it only makes sense to me that they are the same, the random shutdown is not really random, it occurs when i first turn the pc on when i start the day, i turn it on, log myself in and go get some breakfast and when i return its off. The cpu light started today and it kinda sounds like the issue is progressing. I don't want to think it's my motherboard since it's my third one and im already pissed at these kind of problems, but i think it's the only thing i can target here.
-
Since the pc is working fine since i changed from the fan hub to the splitter i think that was it, it was a really cheap one and i think the mobo just turned on the cpu light when it couldnt turn on the fans, the only thing that does not fit in this theory is the random shutdown at startup... I will try this fix for the event viewer erros later, since im planning to re-install windows and erase everything later, thank you.

I just checked HWINFO again and my 12V fluctuates every 4-5s between 12.144V to 12.168V so i don't think there is a problem with that AFAIK since its only fluctuating about 0.024V which is probably safe and still within the safe voltage limits(11.8-12.4V), but i will certainly keep an eye out for that since that is my third motherboard...(First one had energy issues, got a replacement that was stuttering a lot after a few months and rma confirmed issue and now i have the b550 tomahawk from msi) . About the VRM core i don't know which one is it so im attaching a screenshot from HWInfo and hoping you could tell me what it is. It is not fluctuating fast enough to be faster than the poll rate. I got no fuzzy lines happening here, my GPU works as expected so far. And i don't see anything noteworthy other than the Kernel-Power on the event viewer(will attach screenshot too).
-
My GPU is fine, i know that. My 12V rail is fluctuating between 12.096V and 12.130V and my 3.3V rail is fluctuating between 3.296 and 3.299. So i think im good on theses aspects, but i agree that it's most likely hardware failure but i dont know which one. As i said my GPU is fine, my CPU also works flawlessly when system boots, so i don't know what it could be other than maybe my mobo(which is 2 months old) or my PSU(just completed a year). And after i opened it up i tried rebooting a few times and all of those it booted perfectly fine with no shutdowns so far.
-
Hello, since i moved my system from my old case to my new case i have been suffering from shutdowns a few seconds/minutes after powering up for the first time in the day. Usually i could reboot and all is good but today the pc refused to boot and the CPU light on the mobo was on. I noticed that my AIO fans were not spinning during this boot error. Before i moved my system from my old case to new case i noticed that the pwm function on my aio fans were broken(system reporting 0 rpm) and so i switched it to dc and bought a pwm fan hub to check if it was the splitter fault that this was happenning, after moving the case and using the fan hub the pwm problem persisted. So when my cpu light stayed on i tought it might be the fan and changed back from the fan hub to the original splitter, i also checked cable connections, especially the cpu and it seemed ok. After that when i pressed the power button my Motherboard basically blinked when i tried to power it on and after 2-3 times pressing the button, it did power but CPU light was still on, so i long pressed power button and restarted the system and it worked again, i really don't know what is happening. I know my english is kinda bad so i apologize for that.
