  1. will my current set up be able to handle the 240hz monitor?
  2. so does this mean that I should be looking to upgrade my monitor instead of the cpu right?
  3. so does this mean that I'd just have to wait and save up more money in order for me to buy bigger parts and get the frames that i want? Or maybe i buy a monitor that 240hz display? Because I feel like I wouldn't be able to get my hands on the 30 series anytime soon.....
  4. PC Specs: Cpu - Ryzen 5 1600 Gpu - Gtx 1060 Dual 6gb Motherboard - ASUS ROG Strix B-350F Gaming PSU - Corsair CX 550M RAM - 16gb Dual Channel 2100 mhz I'm currently planning on upgrading my cpu into a much more powerful one because i recently discovered that the game that i play the most(Dota 2) is CPU intensive and if I was going to upgrade my gpu as well i will need a stronger CPU to pair it up. I did some research on my own and I've chosen the Ryzen 7 2700x for my CPU upgrade. I want to play Dota 2 in a 200+ fps from early game up until the late game and of course some other games as well at a higher graphic settings without the frames dropping. Let me know if i missed out something and the Ryzen 7 2700x is not compatible with my current system or if there is a better option out there that I have missed out. Thank you in advance and I appreciate the help!
  5. I'm sorry about that sir, it's my first time posting in a forum. I'll be more aware next time my bad
  6. it's DOCP on amd my bad i just got stucked in my head that it was XMP because it was the term used for intel hehe . I will try manually entering the CAS Latency as indicated in the CPU-z software. Thanks a lot man i appreciate the help
  7. makes sense but it used to recognize it as 24GB usable like it just started to recognize that it wasn't the same when i started with the XMP settings. Nevertheless I think i got my answers to my question and this really makes sense. Thanks a lot for taking the time in helping me i really appreciate it
  8. it used to just say 24GB of ram available but when I started to adjust the ram speeds through the XMP this happened
  9. PSU: Corsair CX 550M 80+ bronze modular RAM: G SKILL Tredent RGB 8GB 2400mhz(?) Team Group 16GB 2400mhz
  10. Thanks for the reply man! I'm so sorry I am very new to this. So the list of my hardware is: MOBO: Asus Strix B350F Gaming CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 GPU: Asus GTX 1060 Dual 6GB Monitor: ASUS VC239H Ok so what I did was, when I first bought my computer I had to settle for an 8GB ram stick because the budget was kinda tight so i thought I could cheap out on the ram since I'm only interested at playing Dota 2 at that time (big mistake). So i decided that I wanted to upgrade my ram because it was kind of annoying that my pc is having trouble running multiple applications at the same time and is struggling to do so. So i bought another ram for upgrade which is the 16GB 2400mhz by Team Group and I couldn't buy the same ram that I bought because I couldn't go to the store where I bought my pc and only had the opportunity to buy the ram when my family went to the mall and the only available ram there that matches the speed of my current ram is the 16GB one. I'm not sure if its Gigabytes or Gigabit it only says GB on my task manager its probably gigabytes im so sorry i dont know how to identify that thanks for the reply man i really appreciate it
  11. Hi its my 1st time posting to a forum site to seek help, I'm 22 years old from the philippines and I've really enjoyed watching LTT videos on youtube and i came across the term overclocking the ram because i learned that it wasn't running on it advertised speed, so i tried the XMP on my BIOS then after that I i think i have killed my ram or idk im not really sure what happened but it used to be 24gbs available on my task manager but now it only says 16gb available and 8gb reserved memory. My ramsticks doesnt match as well I bought the my 2nd ramstick just recently and its 16gb 2400mhz DDR4 from Team Group and the ram that doesnt seem to be working anymore is 8gb 2132mhz DDR4. On my defense i didn't know that it runs at 2132 mhz because it says on the ramstick sticker itself that it is 2400mhz and due to corona virus i couldnt visit the same store that I went and bought my original ramstick(8gb Gskill DDR4). So i went and downloaded CPU-Z and discovered that they ran at different timings "CAS#Latency" but it worked perfectly fine when i didn't touch the XMP settings, all hell broke loose when i played with it, I'm just wondering if maybe i can do something about this and maybe put things back to where they used to be which is get my RAM back at 24gbs avail instead of having an 8gb reserved indicated on my task manager. Thanks for the help in advance and sorry for the cringe worthy post but i really need help
