Hey there, I built my first pc and ever since this has happened about 5-6 times..I dont know what the cause it but my screen just randomly turns black for like 2-3s then it turns static for the same amount and then its all back to normal. I do get the feeling that the period it goes black and static for is getting longer and longer. I did update my drivers again and this keeps happening. In case it helps...I have a RX 6800 and a 5 7600x

After the recent Windows 11 update, I got a BSOD and my Legion 5 15ach6h stopped posting. To troubleshoot I tried: Battery disconnect and power drain Removing SSDs Tried disconnecting the CMOS battery (Destroyed the connector. :'() Removing RAMs (One of them turned out to be faulty) I am not quite sure but I think you can replace the CMOS connector. But is the SO-DIMM slot on my laptop fixable? Here's the screenshot of my update history,

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jJqTxH I have a part list that I really would like to get started on. Of course, I'm not starting with all these parts ($8000 would be too crazy for me!). I'm mainly going to use this for Blender and graphic-intensive gaming. Here is how I will assemble this computer: Buy the basic parts (My GPU will be the 7900 listed, and I will buy both the small and large SSDs, the small one will be for the OS.) First assembly Upgrade desk and chair Add other parts later when I financially can and finish up with the 4090 and Valve Index. I am open to any suggestions and discussions!

Trying to bring new life into my old main machine parts (these have been for the most part sitting in the open so for a while ive been skeptical of them even working). Recently used them in a build but cannot get it to post with a DRAM failure light. Here are the parts: Motherboard: MSI Z270 SLI Plus RAM: Corsair Vengeance LED 16 GB 2666mhz CL16 CPU: Intel Core i7 7700k PSU: Corsair SF850L Case: Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini I got the build done relatively quickly but as mentioned above the system doesnt seem to make it past DRAM checks in order to boot, ive been browsing all over the internet for solutions. I have: Reseated the RAM, removed one DIMM, inserted them into one of the other 3 slots available, reboot, repeat still DRAM light. Tried known working DDR4 memory (in my current machine) still no boot, same error. Tried a brand new kit of LPX memory, still no boot with the same troubleshooting steps as above. Reseated the CPU Cooler as posts online say Z270 boards are abit fragile with motherboard bend?? but still no boot. Removed the CMOS battery to reset the BIOS, left it out for 5minutes, placed it back in, still no boot. Rubbing the sticks with rubber??? (yes im desperate). Ive attached in this post images and video of the build as well as the EZ Debug LEDs displaying DRAM error, to be clear the lights flash CPU then DRAM and STAY on DRAM for a couple seconds and reset, from the motherboard manual this indicates a RAM failure of some sort. Not sure at this point what to do as im thinking this could be a motherboard issue. Any tips or guidance would be helpful. Cheers. EDIT: No GPU as i wanted to use these old parts/pc as a home lab to try somethings out on it. 20240414_011940.mp4

Hello i've been having problems with my HDD monts now, i've switched between multiple HDD's. There is this weird problem, it's like if there are bad sector, files corupted or missing, but theres no bad sector, i've run multiple tests, also when i runned chkdsk /x /f /r it finds and fixes files, but if i run it again it's like nothing changed. Also i didn't have any problems with (sata) SSD's and i reinstall windows multiple times. HDD: Seagate IronWolf Pro 4TB Motherboard: ASRock Q77M vPro

Hi Folks. I bought a used XFX Radeon RX 5700 because the my old 1060 died. The seller was runnign firestrike and timespy benchmarks and the tomb raider (ingame) benchmark while. I could see it running for myself. There was no problem. After i installed it into my system (at the time: r5 2600, 16gb ram 2400mhz, 530 watts PSU, asus prime x370 pro) i played more pixel indie games at the time and not any demanding games. Later i played Diablo 2 Resurrected, Palworld, Witcher 3 and the game crashed only after a few minutes in game. First i got flickering in and out of the game and than a crash to desktop with a massage for driver timeout. Again and again and again and again.... I tried to solve the problem by reinstall windows and clear install the amd software. After that i tried to use the enterprise software, also not working. Then i tried drivers only, same s**t. After looking for help on YT and Goolge i thought i found the problem: the PSU. changed it to a corsair cx750m (750 watts) and did not used the daisy chained 8-pin cables for the card but give it 2 individual cables. It looked like it was working for a bit but.... nope. after a reboot i got the same problems again. I also tried to reduce the speed of the card over MSI afterburner but it did not work at all. If i use benchmarks (no ingame benchmarks) its running alright. I was so fed up i installed an old 1060 from a friend. My old mainboard died on me last month and i could do nothing untill now i got a replacement (have not much money because of continuing my education). The "new" system is a R5 5500, gigabyte a520m s2h, 16gb ram with 3200mhz and the same 750 watts PSU. So i gave the RX5700 another try.... As you can think... it did not work at all and i got the same s**t like befor. The LTT Forum is my last try to get that beast to work. If not... save up some money and change to team green. Im at the end of my wits here. Thanks in advance.

Hello guys, i need help for my friend, see the problem is he bought a used Inno3D RTX 3060Ti GPU and he's experiencing issues, for exmp: Starts R6 Siege, and after 5 mins of gameplay hes monitor starts to turn off and back on again sometimes faster sometimes slower, like he loses input or how to say, and his sound card wich he usess for his studio mic/etc goes off too so he cannot speak or hear things, i think he has a Gen2 or Gen3 Pcie slot but i have an rtx 4060 with an gen3 slot and i have no issues maybe he has issues cause of the gen2/gen3? please help (im not sure if he has gen 2 or 3 pcie i dont remember i have to ask him again if hes online)

Hello, for some weird reason my usb c to usb c cable is not getting recognised when I plug it into my phone and won't show anything up on my pc. Also, it doesn't charge properly. I tried it in a laptop and again nothing shows up there either. It used to work and saying it's outputting about 1.85W - 2.65W when charging. Is it my phone, motherboard or something else. I've tried 2 other cables and still no luck. Any help? Would be greatly appreciated.

Hey there! I’ve been running a Ryzen 5 3600 + rog b450-f board combo for about 4 weeks now. I just received my Hyper 212 evo and proceeded to install it. Only to notice that after install, no lights were lit on my motherboard (the lights on the IO shield are lit even when the PC is off. Not only this, but the PC was unable to POST and there is no fan spin upon hitting the power switch). This concerned me so I turned the pc back off and pulled the CPU thinking I bent a pin or something similar, only to find there was no visible damage. At this point I’m not sure what the issue is, I’m leaning towards a dead motherboard but I’m not sure how. (For reference I’m running a evga 80+ bronze PSU so I would doubt the PSU killed it). Any advice would be appreciated, thank you!

As stated in the title, my hard drives sometimes produce a high pitched ringing sound, similar to tinnitus or this 13000HZ sound. My drives have never failed and exhibit normal operation and speeds, and additionally sound normal when it's not ringing. However, in HWInfo, there are a couple warnings for some drives, which have been listed down below: S.M.A.R.T - [C5] Current Pending Sector Count: 100/Always OK, Worst 100 (Data = 104,0) - [C6] OFf-Line Uncorrectable Sector Count: 100/Always OK, Worst 100 (Data = 104,0) Device Statistics - Read Recovery Attempts: 24 - Number of Reallocation Candidate Logical Sectors: 104 - Number of High Priority Unload Events: 2 - Number of Reported Uncorrectable Errors: 24 For reference, I'm using 14TB Seagate Exos Enterprise drives, these are brand new, having under 200-hours of total power-on time. Does this high-pitched ringing signal an imminent drive failure? Thank you in advance for your support and expertise!

I bought switches for a new k70 rgb pro and i cant find if its hot-swappable

hey everyone, i am having some issues with my 7900XTX with very weird GPU utilization varying from day to day running the same tasks. lately i have been playing alot of Path of Exile and i have noticed my GPU utilization varies from day to day by a significant amount. i have done some testing both with OCCT & AMD Adrenalin open to check utilization %, one day the card will sit at around 40-45% idle ingame, next day it can be using 60% at login screen & idle ingame. the card have a 0 RPM fan configuration, but the days the card is acting up the fans will run constantly, despite the temperature being below the threshold, untill i close the game agian. before posting this i tried running the game with directX 11 & 12 idle both at login screen and ingame, the card would stay at around 60% and sometimes jumping to 80-100% or even to around 40% randomly. the only "fix" i seem to have found is restart the game and pray, sometimes i even turn off the power supply and unplug the entire PC for a sort amount of time to "fix" this. the attached picture is from standing ingame doing nothing, like mentioned earlier in this post when the card is running like it should the game only uses between 40-50% depending on what is happening ingame. i have the same background applications running as any other day, Discord (hardware acceleration off), iCue & steam to run the game. EDIT: i forgot to mention that i can easily notice this without having any monitoring software open, because at around 60% there is a slight noticable coilwhine, therefor it is easy for me to know when it is not running like it should. my system specs are: CPU - 7800X3D GPU - Powercolor 7900XTX Hellhound Spectral White MOBO - Asus Rog Strix x670e-a RAM - 64gb Corsair Vengeance 6000mhz (EXPO2 profile) PSU - Corsair HX1000i 80+ PLAT my GPU is undervolted to 1080 & clock speed is limited to 2525 due to coilwhine, i am positive the card is running stable at these settings because i can run Horizon Forbidden West for 3+ hours with the GPU running around 90-100% both Utilization & D3D usage.

Specs i3 10100 16gb ram 2666MHz cl19 256gb sata ssd gen 3 nvme 512gb arc a750 whenever i click on the game icon it uses 100% of cpu and like 10% of gpu, i tried literally everything and i have no idea what to do, it just wasted my bandwidth and it doesn't even work fine WHAT TO DO ??? people i know getting same problem and others don't and works with them without issues a friend with same pc as mine have the game and it works without issues rebar enabled, 4g decoding enabled

I recently built my first pc but there is a problem; My case has a LED SW but my motherboard doesn't is there any adapter I can buy online or something of that sort.

Hi everyone, I am at a bit of a loss. I have a pretty badass PC, RTX 4090, 7800X3D, 32gb of ram, gen4 SSDs. It generally treats me well but when I connect my Samsung 4k tv to it, the whole computer hangs and is totally unresponsive for between 1-3 minutes. I am using HDMI 2.0 for the TV as all of my DisplayPorts are taken up by three monitors. Making other changes like switching the TV to game mode (120 hz) from regular mode also cause this hanging to happen. It does not happen when unplugging the tv. It does eventually work, but its very strange that it happens every time. This kind of thing has never happened to me with my laptops or older desktops. Any help would be appreciated. Let me know if I have forgotten any details. I have no screenshots to post as the issue is just a freeze. Thanks!

I’ve been trying to choose an Ultrawide to buy. I’m looking at getting a 49” one, and the one that seems to have all the bells and whistles I want is the AOC Agon AG493UCX2 The bells and whistles being (these are non-negotiable): Similar display rate and pixel density as my current dual monitors (currently two Gigabyte M29Q) Display port and HDMI. As well as USB C with power and data transfer so I can charge my work laptop with the same cable I’m using to display it when I WFH PBP (PIP would be a plus) so I can have my PS5 on one side and be able to browse the internet on the other I was looking at the Samsung G9 Odyssey as I can get it nearly half off at the moment, but I don’t think it has what I want

alright so the problem is that when I launch a game my screen randomly goes black within a few minutes, its inconsistent and only happens most of the time, and the audio either loops, as in like when I'm shooting in the game it just keeps looping that sound or it just straight up freezes, this used to happen when I wasn't in a game too but I managed to fix it (I think) but the funny thing is that when the screen went black in my desktop when I pressed a button on my keyboard I hear an error noise, all of these problems can only be fixed when I either hold down the power down button or I pressed the hard reset button on my case. Also, my gpu wouldn't turn on with my pc so I reseated a couple of times till it powered on. Here is a list of what I tried in order to fix my computer: 1 :reset bios 2 :update bios 3 :reinstall graphics drivers 4 :disable XMP 5 :disable ULPS in reg editor 6 :sometimes the screen would be black when I started it so I reseated the ram till it worked 7 :reseated gpu 8 :updated Windows 9 :put my power plan on balanced instead of ultimate performance and that's about it, here's a list of my pc components: Zotac twin edge before rtx 4070 12gb gpu AMD R5 7600x cpu asrock b650m pg riptide mobo cooler master g700 psu oloy blade ddr5 5600mhz ram samsung 980 SSD hyper 212 spectrum v3 cpu cooler also an additional bit of information, I'm using an outlet extension to power my 2 monitors and pc. Thanks for reading.

this is my first pc build, i’m just trying to boot into bios to install my OS and it won’t show, i have to order new RAM because i was silly and didn’t look at it was DDR4 and my motherboard only supports DDR5. could that be the issue as to why or my newbie wiring? i’ve tried plugging it both into GPU and motherboard but nothing has come up.

Hi all! So I've been asking around Reddit and the general consensus is for the most part it will be fine but I'm hoping I can get a more expert or at least more educated answer before I try to daisy chain my 7900xtx. I made the mistake of ordering the NZXT C1200 watt Gold power supply assuming it had 3 PCIE like the c1000 watt version. To my disappointment these ass hats decided it was a great idea to cut costs at consumers expense and give 2 PCIE, 2 CPU and 1 12vpwr cable instead of just including all cables one might need for the 280+$ price tag of the PSU (250€) My options are to either use one cable for two power connections and a second cable for the last power connection or buy a new power supply. Why you might ask?! Because NZXT changed OEMs for the c1200 and that OEM hasn't disclosed the PCIE pin outs to cable mod and NZXT is refusing to do anything about it, their response to my support ticket was "go fuck yourself buy the cable from cable mod.com" in their own "professional" manner I'm pretty desperate at this point and I'll be very grateful to hear what you guys have to say about it. Thanks very much in advance

Budget (including currency): 350GBP Country: England Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: BeamNG Drive, Medium graphics wanting 60ish fps 1080p Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Case MUST be under 33cm tall because of my desk, upgrading from 2012 iMac, 3.2ghz i5-3470, 24GB RAM. will build in about a weeks time, but can start buying parts now, will get GPU from ebay or FB marketplace, as new GPUs are way out of my price range, already have all peripherals, want to run 2 monitors, min of 16gb ram, thinking AM4 maybe 5600g, need wifi,

When using my computer it seems to randomly go to a black screen where audio will continue but I have 0 input. After trying to reboot the computer will continue to boot to a black screen. I have been dealing with this for months and haven’t found a true fix all I do is keep re seating the gpu, clearing cmos, reseating ram etc and I also have random success with that. I’m just really stuck here and in the verge of tears gaming is really the only escape I have. I also tested the gpu in a known working PC and it ran fine. I also tried using a different GPU in my computer and same black screen issue. SYSTEM SPECS: RTX3080ti 32gb Corsair vengeance ddr5 ryzen 9 7950x3d Mag B650 tomahawk WiFi EDIT:I’ve also gotten the computer to boot to windows through integrated graphics another odd note the computer will stop displaying internal graphics if I plug in my oddesy g7 instead of my smaller 1080p tv switching back to the tv it will also now have no signal

So i got my nVidia GeForce RTX 3060 TI and it does this wierd usage thing where it goes from 0% to 20% and repeat the fans spins faster and slower with each one and i gotta ask if this is normal and if not what i should / Check / Do / or anything else the thing is i dont run anything rn like game or app ... maybe few apps on backround but nothing serious,

So randomly yesterday my PC decided to limit my download speeds to 100mbps up, and down. I don't know why and I thought it was the cable so I replaced the cable, still not fixed. I plugged the new cable into another device and it gave internet speeds I was expecting. I then thought "okay, it's probably dirty contact pins in the 2.5gig ethernet slot" so I cleaned it out with isopropyl alcohol and a cotton wool bud, waited for it to dry and still no change after all that. I then thought it was most likely a windows setting that had randomly enabled it's self that I can't find, and I mean I looked everywhere. I tried changing the Speed & Duplex to "Auto Negotiation" but I realised that was already set properly. I tried updating drivers, nothing. I tried unplugging the ethernet and plugging it back in to see if that's the issue, no luck. I came across something in task managers "network details" tab however that seems to be my problem, there's an image attached showing it but it seems the 100gbps or 1gbps has been disconnected and the 100mbps has connected it's self randomly. Does anyone know the solution to changing this? Edit: While doing a test on fast.com, the internet was at 100mbps and then suddenly jumped to 700mbps at the end of the test, then back down again when re-testing. I don't have any idea what could cause this when it's clearly limited to 100 mbps
