I was curious on peoples thoughts on the new platform as im most likely going to be buying into it (most likely the 7820x). I currently have a i7 6700k and although great at gaming im really looking for a more powerful CPU workstation wise. As of now I dont want to pre-order as its not a safe bet, how long should I wait before buyin it. Any other thoughts aswell are interesting to talk about.

for some context, i recently bought 3 broken threadripper motherboards with the hope that i could repair them and use one in a project. one of the boards is badly damaged and i am intending to use as a donor board. the board in the pic isnt as bad. i have spent about an hour straitening bent pins, and now the only thing i can see wrong is the missing item, which i belive is a capacitor. each of them is about 2-3mm long. i have looked into micro soldering and think it would be possible to de-solder a cap from the donor board and put it on the board which is in better shape. problem is im a complete noob and have very little electrical knowledge and 0 micro soldering experience. I would like to know if the cap is even necessary, as im aware sometimes extra components are used for redundancy. if i do need to fix it, would this tool be enough(TS100): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MDTO6X7/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=rossmanngroup-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B01MDTO6X7&linkId=2d7c13ceaf8725fb1aadce13d12a16c3 i saw that Louis Rossman recommended it, and it is fairly inexpensive compared to the alternatives. I would also be interested to hear about solder/flux recommendations for this project, as its another area i know very little about. any info, advice, recommendations or tips would be really helpful to me. thank you for reading.

PC was running without problems last night and I put it to sleep mode as usual, but now the PC will not power on, whether by a keyboard press or the front panel power button on the case. I checked inside the PC and the motherboard itself, and there are no unplugged cables, nothing obviously burnt out, etc. In the bottom corner of the motherboard, near the front panel header and SATA connectors, there is an LED marked "SB_PWR", and it is lit a solid, non-blinking orange whenever the PSU is plugged in to the mains. The PC will not turn on at all, whether I use the front panel power button, shorting the power switch pins on the system panel header, or presing the internal power button on the bottom edge of the motherboard near the Q-Code display. None of the 4 POST state LEDs in the top corner of the motherboard light up, and there is nothing on the Q-Code display. What is my next step; is there a way to bring this thing back to life? -
I'm trying to add some RGB goodness to my MSI X399 Gaming Pro Carbon AC. I bought some Enermax SquA fans (because they're supposedly compatible with MSI Mystic Light) and I'm trying to install them ... and I can't. The X399 motherboard has a 4 pin JRainbow with pins (in order, 1 through 4) of [C1][D1][5v][G] while the Enermax is expecting [5v][D1] _ [G] - so, even if I 'cut' the third pin, this isn't going to work. Has anyone else seen this? Is there some weird configuration I need to perform (or a cable connector I can buy ... or make)?

Hi, has any one else had issues with the size of the Aorus X399 Xtreme motherboard in mid-tower E-ATX cases? I have the Phanteks Enthoo Pro M and anoyingly the case has a "ramp" that stops the base plate "armour" of the board sitting flush with the back of the case. On PC part Picker its listed as compatable https://pcpartpicker.com/products/case/?compatible_with=XT3H99#t=3 Is it safe to remove the back base plate, will there be any issue with heat? I removed it and it fits without it and but I had to remove the rubber cable grommets on the case too. I'm going to use an AMD x2950 16 core cpu so its not as hungry as the 24 or 32 cpu's. Any advise much appreciated, I have asked Gigabyte support if there woul dbe a concern too.

I have an X399 Aorus Gaming 7 motherboard and according to the manual I have to spam DEL to get into the BIOS (while the pc is turning on ofc.), but I am spamming DEL and the bios doesn't open. I've tried DEL, F12 and F2 but none of them worked. I even checked if fast boot is on and I even turned it off in the regestry, but still none of those work. Help pls : ( thanks, doxi.

Hi all! So sorry if this has already been discussed but after literal hours pouring over the web for an answer today, I've resigned to asking for myself. I recently purchased MSI's X399 Gaming Pro Carbon motherboard as I got it as a steal (almost AUD$150 off msrp), and the build went off practically without a hitch. That being said, it has been a good few years since I did a build of my own and some things are new to me; argb, m.2 sockets, threadripper installation, just to name a few. It wasn't until I was finishing off the build that I stumbled into this problem. The JRAINBOW1 header on this board has 4 pins; C1|D1|+5V|GND. I have found it nigh impossible to find this header on any other board - including any of MSI's own boards - and by extension, an adapter that would convert this header to the more standard layout; +5V|D|--|GND. Am I missing something here? Is this header meant only for very particular LED strips? Any help would be greatly appreciated! - Mitch -
Im completely new to this. I built a new pc after saving for a year. It ran perfectly for 2 weeks and I used coretemp and cpu-z to check the processor. Worked fine. Then it suddenly went off and did not want to switch on again. ( I was editing a showreel in after effects if this might add any info). No fans spinning or anything. Just the rgb lights on the motherboard and one orange standby light that stays on. Initially I thought it was the psu. Got that tested and its fine. Then I thought it might he the motherboard. It was still within 30 days of purchase so it got exchanged for a brand new one. And after installing everything. Still just no powering on and no fans spinning. Just that orange standby light. Any help would be appreciated. I also tried manually turning on the power with the screwdriver short where the pwr switch connects, and still nothing. The parts are as follows: Ryzen threadripper 1950x Asus prime a x399 Cooler master v1200 80+ platinum Asus stric gtx 1050 ti 4gb Samsung evo 970 25pgb ssd Cooler master MA621p cooler Xpg spectrix 16gb ram ddr4 3000MHz RGB Seagate 250GB Barracuda SSD Netis PCIe 802.11N WIRELESS CARD All in a cooler master MasterCase H500P.

I have recently upgraded from the X99 platform, to the X399 platform. My new CPU is a TR 1920X and I have had nothing but problems regarding gaming performance. I never bought this CPU for just gaming, however, from the many benchmarks I have seen from main stream Ryzen, I was expecting quite a bit more! For example, GTA V will not go above the 70-80 fps mark with my GTX 1070, and this is even with no msaa enabled. I get the exact same performance at 1080p with no mssa as I do at 1440p with 2x msaa! GPU usage fluctuates between 50-70% therefore the CPU is clearly holding me back, however, it should not do this as there are benchmarks to show Threadripper hitting at least 100 fps. I have tried various things such as Game mode, new bios, chip set drivers, but to no avail. I don't get how this is happening?I will post the main parts of my system specs below: TR 1920X16 GB 3000mhz ddr4GTX 1070asus prime A x399 -
on the gigabyte pro x399 motherboared they is 1 8 pin and 1 4 pin are both required for the system to work i wont be doing any overclocking the reason i am asking this is because i have a pretty much brand new thermaltake 700w psu. thanks. -
Hello,I am kinda new to BIOS and all that stuff (former Mac user) and I am looking for an advice. I would like to apply some best settings in Bios for FAN speed vs overclocking my CPU. Currently I am running my CPU at stock settings, default settings in BIOS. My fan speeds are quite volatile, ramping up to 2200 RPM which is quite loud. Usually this happens when CPU is boosting up to 4.2 GHz. I would like to have the fans and CPU performance more constant at 4.01 GHz if that is possible. I have front panel case fans 3x120 mm and radiator fans 3x120 mm on top plus exhaust back fan 150 mmMy computer specs are Motherboard Asus ROG Strix X399-E Gaming CPU AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2920X 12-Core Processor 3.50 GHz RAM 32Gb - 2x G Skill F4-3000 C16-8 GISB GPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti - Gigabyte GPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti - MSI NVme Samsung SSD 970 PRO 512 GB Liquid AIO with 360 mm radiator for cooling CPU. If you can give me some kind of help or suggestions how to do it in BIOS I will appreciate it a lot. THX!

Hey, I'm trying to decide between the Asus ROG Zenith Extreme X399 and the ASRock X399 Professional Gaming. Could someone please give me a nice comparison between the two. My main focus for my build is creating a system that will stream the internet with no bottlenecks, something great for photo editing, and the occasional game. I'd love to have some fast USB support since I will be transferring tons of files. I'm looking to drop in a TR 2950X. I will be going with a custom water loop. Currently looking at two kits of G.Skill Trident Z 32 GB Ram and 2x1T MVME M.2 (haven't decided which type). I will be going with a GTX 1080 ti GPU.

got this board broken on the used market. it had some bent pins which I sorted out, but it seems that isn't the only issue. when the power supply is switched on, the clear CMOS and power buttons on the rear IO light up, but if I press either button the board immediately turns off and the lights go out. I don't even get a post code. this happens on both bios switches, with or without a CPU installed. has anyone got any suggestions on what I could try to get this thing working? I've tried to repair a few boards in the past but have never seen this sort of problem. would very much appreciate any advice you might have.

I just acquired a barely used 1900x + Gigabyte X399 Aorus Gaming 7. I will be doing a lot of Lightroom + Photoshop editing and Premier + After Effects video timelapse stuff from RAW photo timelapses. I will also be doing some gaming and streaming when I get free time for the rest of the winter. I've read that Single Rank Memory is best for Threadripper, but is that true for all Threadripper's or just the high core count CPU's? Will populating all 8 DIMMs negatively effect gaming performance, if so can I go into BIOS and turn off some RAM? I was thinking of finding the fastest 8 x 8 configuration that I can. I was looking at this Memory Kit, sadly I can't find out from simple searches if its Single or Dual rank sticks.... F4-3200C14Q-32GTZRX Price wise I was hoping for under $600.00 USD, but if its particularly good I could go for something under $800.00 USD. ~thanks for any help!! oh yeah... I'm fine with just XMP settings and also not afraid to try and do some overclocking... Hopefully Buildzoid has a video on this...

Hi everyone. I'm having some problems with my memory. All 32Gb are recognized. (4x8) In the UEFI and CPU-Z the memory is only shown as single channel, although 4 Sticks are installed. CPU-Z under "SPD" shows me Information for all the Sticks except for the last one. See screenshot attached. System Specs: Asrock X399 Professional Gaming AMD 1950X Threadripper G-SKill Trident Z 4x 8 GB DDR4 Quad-Channel Kit 3600Mbhz The System is running okayish. With heavy CPU work like 3D rendering etc i have not encoutered any problems. Photoshop on the other hand is acting weird. It won't open some files because of some RAM error. Other files are read without any problem... What i have tried so far: Switching the memory around. Testing for dual-channel (did not work) - still single channel Testing on A1,B1,C1,D1 instead of A2,B2,C2,D2 Loosening the screws a bit since i heard the CPU might be squeezed too tightly Reseated the CPU All without any difference. Any ideas? Thanks!

Around a year ago I built a threadripper system to use as my unraid server. MSI X399 Pro Gaming AC Carbon, 2920x, 48GB of G.Skill TridentZ RGB 3200 Ram, 1tb Intel 660p, and gpus and hdds. It ran perfectly fine for around 4 months until I came home to it frozen. I hard-rebooted it and now it hangs on debug code 60 which is "dxe core is started". I've tried it with 1 stick of ram, no boot devices, different gpus, resetting cmos, flashing bios using flashback. The only thing I haven't done is replace the cmos battery. I've since RMA'd the board twice and both times nothing has been fixed. I get no support email asking questions or explaining anything. Basically I've just wasted $50 on shipping. So I've come here looking for some help. Any ideas come to mind on what could be causing me issues?

Hello folks, Long time lurker, first time posting a new thread and unfortunately it's a plea for help - sorry :-( New build to replace my ageing Sandy rig - Aorus X399 xtreme with a Threadripper 2950X, Seasonic PSU. Problem: On power up, the board cycles through a few codes but gets stuck at LED diagnostic code 16, which the manual helpfully lists as reserved. If you wait, the BIOS LED toggles to the backup BIOS, the LED codes cycle again and get stuck at 16 once more. The BIOS LED toggles back to the main BIOS and this repeats over and over. The CPU LED is lit red, which worries me. Diagnostics so far: I have a Corsair Vengeance CMK32GX4M4B3466C16 memory kit (which is actually on the approved list for that board / CPU combo). Pulling each stick makes no difference until I remove all RAM, at which point it gets stuck on code 10, which is listed as "PEI core is started". I then pulled the CPU to check to see if I had mashed a pin or something, and can not see any damage at all. Trying a boot without the CPU at this stage gives code 00, which is again reasonable. PSU voltages meter out fine, the CPU EPS cables are attached, having a video card present or not makes no difference as its not getting that far. The fact that its toggling between BIOSes worries me, as does the red CPU error LED. The damn thing has even been built at an ESD workstation! And that's as far as I've got - any ideas however trivial would be welcome as its years since I've done my own complete build and could be missing something blindingly obvious. Googling for this state of things has got me nowhere. Thanks in advance! EDIT: Haven't checked for beep codes - need to actually find a speaker!

Are there any problems with 2990 Wx + mATX x399 taichi? Has anyone tried it? (non OC) Thank you -
I just finished building a new build and it does not post. I see the error code E6 which I can't find any info about in the manual. I have tried moving around and rotating RAM-sticks without any luck. My build: MB: Asrock x399 Taichi CPU: Ryzen Threadripper 2950x GPU: Gigabyte 2080ti Gaming OC RAM: G.Skill Trident Z RGB 4x16GB CL14 3000mhz (they are compatible according to Asrock.com) CPU Cooler: Noctua NS-U14s Case Fans: Noctua Case: Fractal Design Meshify C SSD: 1x Samsung Evo 1TB M.2 NVME + 1x Samsung Evo 250GB M.2 NVME PSU: Corsair HX850i Platinum I have googled the problem and have seen that some suggest it is not #6 but Eb which is not the case for me. It is clearly E6. When removing all RAM sticks I get the C0 error code instead. When removing the GPU I still have the E6 error code. Any suggestions of what do you? I realllllllllly would appreciate some help.

Hello, I'm trying to finish my workstation build and I'm having trouble choosing the ram for it. I'm using a Threadripper 2990wx and MSI X399 MEG Creation, I'm hoping to get 4 sticks of 16gb for a total of 64gb so I have the possibility of expanding to 128gb in the future if needed. Also, I would like to get 3200Mhz memory ideally but I would be okay with 3000Mhz. I've looked at the list of compatible ram in the MSI website but I'm having a hard time finding those for a decent price online here in Canada: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/MEG-X399-CREATION#support-mem-17 I don't really care if the ram is RGB or not altho if its similar price I would rather get RGB. If anyone could help me with some advice or if anyone knows of any good deals for ram that will work with my Threadripper I would be very grateful. Many thanks in advance! -

Hi all, yesterday I upgraded my Pc to the x399 platform with the Threadripper 1900x and Gigabyte x399 Designare Ex and I keep getting postcode A5- "Issue reset during SCSI initialization process", as well as the time resetting to 1 PM. I'd be very thankful if someone could tell me what this problem is and how to fix it!
