Hello there! I will be selling my PC with has the following components as listed below. Unsure I am about how to price the thing, could you guys help me out? The thing is if I look for example at listings for a 3090 i find such a big difference in pricing same for other parts. I dont want to offer an horrendous price like thise weird prices on Facebook Marketplace and such. The PC is still in good conditions, parts are 4 years old except the 3090 is newer. What would be a realistic and good deal for this?

Hi, so a couple of weeks ago I built a new system, for both gaming and some content creation. All went well but this morning when I turned on the PC it wouldn't even boot to BIOS. I tried clearing the CMOS, flashing the latest version of BIOS, and at a closer inspection the motherboard(I should of started with that) had the error code 90 and and white LED turned on near. I just don't know what to do with that and I really needed my PC this weekend cause of my project. PC: CPU: Ryzen 9 5950X MBO: ASUS CROSSHAIR VIII HERO X570 RAM: 64GB DDR4 3600Mhz G.Skill Trident Z NEO GPU: MSI Ventus 3X OC RTX 3090 SSD: Corsait MP600 1TB CPU cooler: An ASUS ROG Strix 360mm AIO PSU: Asus ROG STRIX 850W

Hello, i have a gainward rtx 3090, and i used to think my temps were perfectly fine when i had only after burner running, cyberpunk highest settings RT overdrive and the temps at 78c, did some undervolting and i got it down to 72 to 75, but then i got HWINFO and noticed that there were 2 extra temperatures info, memory junction which looked fine, but the hotspot temp didnt seem so fine, it was about 23c higher fluctuating between 93 to a 101 depending on the scene and how aggressive my undervolting was: 1- less aggressive undervolt: 2- a more aggressive undervolte so i got concerned, and after some googling and asking multiple people i was provided with 2 different opposing answers 1- 100c hotspot is not fine and you should repaste asap 2- 100c is totally fine, 20c difference between the core and the hotspot is not great but its acceptable, you should consider a repaste if you are facing crashes or performance issues, otherwise no need to bother just yet so my question is which answer is more valid? in my case no i havent faced anything off about my gpu aside from gpu fans being a bit loud but that was expected from a gainward, i have only repasted a gpu once ( geforce gtx 970 ) and it was a success, but im not so confident still so i would like to resort to a repaste when necessary only, but still if 100 was damaging my card or causing it to noticeably underperform ( which i havent noticed ) then im willing to do a repaste/ replace the pads so please for people with knowledge in the topic, make it more clear whether my gpu is at risk, or the temps are totally fine, or something in between

I stumbled upon this: RTX-3090-FE - Nvidia NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 24GB Video Graphics Card (harddiskdirect.com)

Hi, i am sorry for My English, its not my first language. Specs: Windows 10 64 bit i9 - 12900K Zotac Gaming RTX 3090 32 GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 5600 MAG Z690 TOMAHAWK WIFI be quiet Dark Power 12 1000W BIOS Just updated, didnt fix the Problem My Monitor Randomly loses signal, while just using chrome, also while gaming. when i lose the video signal my PC stays on,i can hear also sound, i need to reboot it with the reset button on the case, some days i have not one signal loss, some days i have multiple, i dont even game anymore, it just makes no sense to game when any moment your monitor can lose signal, my pc also severely underperforms, as example i have this Arma 3 screenshots, for a very short moment i have over 100 FPS, and then it drops completely, and it stays like that. I know Arma 3 is not the best optimized game, but this is not what i should get with my specs,i had better fps with my old pc, and Arma 3 is not the only game where i have low fps. idk why there are no FPS in the screenshots, looks like steam fps overlay dosent show up on steam screenshots, the fps are never over 40, most of the time they are in the low 30s ore even lower Temp while doing nothing Temp after 6 mins of Arma 3, i dont want to do it longer, to not have a signal loss

I am thinking of buying used RTX 3090. Does Corsair spec 05 have a good air flow? I am going for two 140mm fans in the front. Another one on top and 120mm fan for back. Is this good enough?

Hi i want to buy a gpu, for 3d modeling and gaming, my primary 3d program is blender but i use others programs like (UE5, Maya, ZBrush, 3DS-Max, substance painter, substance designer, Marvelous designer, R3DS WRAP, RizomUV, ) for time to time ,i bught ryzen 9 7900x used for 250€ and i have 64 ddr5 6000 30cl ram, my 2 options now are used (rtx 3090) for 650-700€ or new (rx 7900 xtx) for 950€, 7900xt is the sam price of 7900xtx and 3090ti cost 850 used so so xtx and 3090 are my best options ,wich of them are the best value, also it's my first time thinking of suitching to amd.

So I have a problem with a second hand videocard I just bought. I tested the videocard on location and it worked just fine there, when I got home and replaced my old videocard for the new one, the pc didn't boot anymore, it just gives a no signal found screen on my monitor. When I placed the old card back it booted again (rx 580 8gb). The videocard that I bought was a Asus GeForce RTX 3090 Tuf Gaming. The current specs of my pc are: Cpu: ryzen 5 5600x Motherboard: MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus. (I already updated to the newest bios, and when I turn on the pc with the new videocard installed the VGA light on the motherboard stays on.) Videocard (new): Asus GeForce RTX 3090 Tuf Gaming Videocard (old): Gigabyte rx580 8gb Ram: Corsair vengeance pro 8gb 2x Storage: samsung m.2 NVMe SSD 1tb Cpu cooler: liquid Freezer II 280 PSU: Corsair RM750 I'm using a HDMI cable for connection to my monitor. I've plugged in two separate 6+2 pin power connectors directly from the PSU, which fills all the slots on the gpu. I've also dubble checked whether the connectors are properly plugged in. I've plugged the gpu into both NVMe x16 slots, neither worked. I've tried plugging in both gpu's to see if it boots then, it didn't. I've got no idea what could be the problem here, whether it's user error or the gpu somehow got fried on the way home or if the other parts I'm using are somehow incompatable with the rtx 3090 I just bought. Advice would be much appreciated.

Hey everyone! I hope it's the right place to make the topic, sorry if it's not. I'm about to buy a used RTX 3090 Aorus Xtreme Waterforce from ebay, the seller said it's been used for mining for a year around, still in a great condition, haven't been tempered with ( no repasting or repadding ) warranty sticker still intact. But i have noticed and asked for more pictures because i have seen some rainbow marks on the PCI-e interface, I was looking for any similar topics around for hours, could not find anything like this. I have attached 2 pictures, should i be concerned it's fried or anything like that? Many thanks in advance!

Hi there folks, I'm an animator for a YouTube channel and deadlines are coming up on me quick. I'm totally stumped as to why my new build isn't preforming well and crashing. Here's the specs: CPU: AMD Threadripper 2950x 16 Core MoBo: x399 Taichi (Bios v3.9) RAM: 64GB G.SKILL TridentZ Series 3200mhz (8GBx8) GPU: RTX 3090 Founders Edition PSU: CORSAIR - RM Series 750W Storage: 2x M.2 1TB SSD's The problem: I edit/render in Adobe After after effects. Renders (with no OC of any type) can take over 20-40 hours for a moderately complex video. I've rendered identical projects faster on my previous build with a Ryzen 5 3600. So in efforts to speed up renders I looked to overclock - I initially tried the XMP 2.0 profile without any additional tweaks, and if I was even able to boot up the PC would BSOD when a render began. I thought maybe it was a voltage issue, so I went back, set my RAM speed to 3200mhz, and voltage to OC Mode and the PC wont boot. I tried some manual OC with Ryzen Master with essentially little to no difference in performance. Currently im running with no OC at all, and it says my RAM is at 1064mhz... I'm by no means an expert at this, but my gut tells me that's not right. Anyone, help plz?

Hello All, I need recommendation's about the case. Which case should i use to control RTX 3090 and AMD 5950x Cooled to sub 50C or maybe 60C? At lower fan speeds, and using Lian Li UNI Fans And which water-cooling hardware should i use (need opinions about radiator sizes)??

Since everyone is talking about bitcoin mining and GPUs. i did a little research looked up the estimated incomes of some graphics cards. while i was comparing the RTX 3090 and RX 6900 XT, the hourly earning for RTX is 10.72 USD and the hourly rate for 6900xt is only 5.57USD. ( numbers took from NiceHash calcs). Since the performance levels of these 2 cards are relatively close, why is there a huge mining earning gap between the cards? I'm genuinely curious. Please don't come at me I'm not a miner and i have zero intentions to mine coins lol.

First of all welcome and thanks for taking the time to read my post. I have my GPU since the end of October 2020 and there wasn't any problem until this month. The VGA crashes every time it's under heavy load for example in GPU intensive games and benchmarks. When the crash is happening all of my screens turns black and the fans of the card start spinning at 100% until I manually restart the pc. My setup: Intel Core i9-9900KS 4 GHz 8-Core Processor with an EVGA CLC 240 74.82 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler MSI MPG Z390 GAMING EDGE AC ATX LGA1151 Motherboard Kingston FURY 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-2400 CL15 Memory 2x Intel 660p Series 1.02 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive MSI GeForce RTX 3090 24 GB VENTUS 3X Video Card Thermaltake Core P3 SE ATX Mid Tower Case Thermaltake Toughpower 1200 W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply Windows 10 PRO I've tried several things to solve the problem: Uninstall my drivers with DDU and then reinstall some of the latest and the older drivers. Plugin two separate cables from the PSU to the VGA instead of one that has 2x8 pins. Tested it with my main PSU which is Thermaltake Thoughpower 1200W 80+ Gold and another PSU which is from my old build. Tried it on a completely different system with a 650W PSU which is probably not enough for this VGA. I also tried it with or without PCI-E extension cables. Downclock both the memory and the core clock speed in MSI Afterburner. install the lates mb bios which improves the performance with rtx 30 series cards. The only thing that seems to be working is set up a custom fan curve in Afterburner which set the fan speed for 100% at 65 degrees celsius which is a bit ridiculous in my opinion. I also noticed that when the GPU temperature is at 75 degrees celsius the card instantly crashes which is a bit early because it's nowhere near the max temperature limit of this card. I don't think that's a normal thing to run the fan speeds at 100% every time I play a game or do some GPU-intensive things. I don't want to RMA this hardware because I bought it in another country's shop which is very far away from my country and the shipping cost to that country would be really high especially with insurance not to mention the two or three week shipping time. If you have any advice on this case I would be very grateful.

Hello! Any 3090 users here who undervolts care to share their undervolting results? I'd like to compare with my results. My 3090 is stable at 1815MHz with 850mV and the result is good - very, very quiet(low RPM) while gaming and after many hours my GPU will occasionally hit 67c but usually it sits at 65c. My card draws about 30-ish watt less than with stock settings. I mainly wanna undervolt because I want my PC to be quiet with good temps but also because the 3090 is very power hungry. But after seeing Optimum Tech being able to hit 1800MHz with 806mV and 1850MHz with 850mV, I'm wondering if anyone else is able to hit those undervolts aswell? My 3090 can't do that, and it's a shame, because Optimum Tech reports his 3090 draws 71 watt less at 1800MHz using 806mV and that's pretty good. Picture is from Optimum Techs video on YouTube

Original source - https://www.tomshardware.com/news/hwinfo64-adds-gddr6x-temp-monitoring-rtx30series Summary With a very recent update to HWInfo64, users are now able to see directly via the popular hardware monitoring tool the temperature of their GDDR6X memory modules for any RTX 3080/3090 cards which they own, and boy will they (likely) see a surprise waiting for them. Even with DLSS enabled, maximum temps of GDDR6X memory modules can reach as high as 100 C while gaming. And this is even worse if someone is attempting to use their RTX 3080/3090 for memory intensive workloads like cryptocurrency mining; the VRAM in those cases would shoot up to 110 C and severely down-clock itself to keep itself from being literally roasted to death, which makes sense as 110C is already (sort of) higher than the "95+C" operating temperature listed on Micron's official website for GDDR6X. Igor's Lab (the first afaik to bring up this "hot VRAM" issue back in September of 2020) estimates that the Micron chips themselves will likely have to hit 120 C before sustaining immediate permanent damage, but (also afaik) the general consensus among anyone who knows at least a little bit about computer hardware is that triple-digit positive (or negative too in many cases afaik) Celsius temperatures are typically never good for the lifespan of the hardware itself. Quotes Tom's hardware on GDDR6X temperatures while gaming - Same article detailing how this issue also affects various AIB-partner cards - And finally, quote from Igor's Lab regarding the absolute max temps before immediate permanent damage: My thoughts 1. Since I felt that this additional info wasn't necessarily part of the article summary, I'll include a link to a video posted within the past 24 hours by Classical Technology about this exact issue that demonstrates that this hot VRAM issue is essentially replicable for any VRAM-intensive workloads; that video also nicely includes some tips about how to solve this issue (and the pinned comment about whether or not it's a "GDDR6X-only" issue may or may not have been me lol): 2. I daily drive a HP Zbook 15 (1st Gen) with Ubuntu installed on it, and before I re-pasted the i7-4800MQ the (bloody) thing would thermal throttle at just 40% load so yea I can definitely feel the pain of whoever's facing these thermal issues. Yes it was definitely (at least mainly) a paste issue as thermal pumping had basically pushed most of the paste to the sides of the CPU (unfortunately I only learned about thermal pumping after re-pasting the CPU so I thought that it was just crappy thermal paste, which is also why I didn't bother taking a pic), and I am fairly confident that the heat-sink was still getting (at least somewhat) enough airflow as I did take a picture (see attached) of how clogged the heat-sink was before I cleaned it and did the re-pasting. I couldn't even get that blob of dust (on the right) out despite multiple attempts of using canned air; heck I didn't even know it existed until I cracked everything open, so yea either way a re-pasting was kinda necessary regardless of how much it was actually a dust issue to begin with. 3. Sounds like something that the new and improved chiller should be able to handle with a bit of custom engineering. Video idea anyone? 4. I honestly think that those of us who weren't able to get our hands on the (at least as of right now) unicorns which are the RTX 3080 and 3090 might've actually lucked out given that these are essentially hardware issues that cannot be fixed without putting severe power limits on the cards themselves, unless if Nvidia comes out with a driver which allows VRAM-specific power-limiting tuning, which doesn't seem to be the case at least as of right now. 4(b?). You know, the fact that this issue was already known at least several months ago during a September kinda reminds me of a little pandemic which also had signs that it could have began as early as September of a different year... Let's just hope that I didn't just jinx 2021 for computer hardware too lol. 5. Looks like @FaxedForward was onto something back in September 2020... 6. Oh I almost forgot...

I'm in need of a new PC for full-time video editing (Adobe Suite with some rather involved AE renders on short deadlines) as well as doing remote live stream production (using VMix and OBS). Looking for the Ryzen 9 5950x/5900x and the RTX 3090 but obviously those have been tough to find (let alone at a decent price) so I'm assuming a pre built is still the way to go? Currently looking at this (photo attached) setup from NZXT but haven't bought a prebuilt before so curious if there is a fantastic integrator out there that I'm forgetting. (Should clarify that I have a nice NZXT full tower sitting empty on a shelf and plenty of storage that I'm moving over from my old PC.)

Im planning on building a pc that will take a few months of getting bits each month im looking to get a 11900k and rtx 3090 or 3080ti getting 64g of corsair vengeance but not sure if a 1000w psu would be enough

Hey Guys, I've had the card for about 7 months, I got lucky to find one used at MSRP of 1500. However, I never really dove deep into testing out through benchmarks. I was getting about what I expected out of games, maybe a bit less. But yesterday I started to benchmark while watching HWinfo and GPUz. My GPU never went over 72 degrees. I always thought that was pretty normal as I keep my fan curve agressive and keep my side panel off when gaming on my case. I had it overclocked by 100mhz this whole time on the core, and 1000 on the memory. I ran Time Spy and was getting about 15-20 % less than the average score on graphics, and overall for that matter. I thought this was a fluke. But multiple runs and multiple restarts, same thing. I never had RTSS on before, so I enabled that. I saw that my gpu once it hit 72 was throttling the clock down from 1850 or so all the way down to 1300 on some runs. I thought that was absurdly low, which it certainly is. But 72 is not hot, and that should not be happening. My memory seems to be getting hotter faster in the card. I thought this was my overclock, so i sent that back to 0. Same problem. Ran it at stock core clock. Same problem. Google searches turn up some instances of bad thermal pad and paste application. OK, but that surely has to be rare....right? What kind of shitty manufacture would take a halo flagship card and apply the damn paste or pads incorrectly on them? But I digress....I built my PC myself, and have become pretty comfortable with that. I have upgraded several parts, including my CPU and installed an AIO. I have ordered thermal pads, and they are here now. But opening up my 1500 dollar card is a bit daunting and nerve racking to be honest. It looks simple enough. But still, very nerve racking. My question is this; is there ANYTHING else I should consider before doing this? Does anyone else have any experience with the trinity 3090? I ordered both 1mm and 2 mm thermal pads, because I couldn't find solid information anywhere about which one I'll need. If I am on the right track, great...is there ANYTHING that anyone can tell me to avoid or be careful of? anything I need to do to it while it is opened up? All help and tips are welcomed and appreciated. Sorry for the long story. I talk a lot when I'm nervous I guess.

Okay, so I really need some advice about what I should do here, I don't trust myself to make the right decision given the circumstances. Here are the facts currently: 1: Last year I was desperately looking for a 3090 to replace my 2080 Ti for my main PC but was having no luck using the traditional methods of shopping and I fortunately got in early when eVGA started their Auto-Notify Queue and got an RTX 3080 FTW3 Ultra in October which I've been using since then in the system in my profile. Not the 3090 I wanted but still I was/am happy with it for my 2K 144Hz gaming compared to the 2080 Ti. No real mining done on it as it's my baby and burning it up scares me (I tried it once for a few hours with the fans maxed out but it didn't feel right at all, not really worth the risk to the hardware for me). 2: I was in queues for every eVGA GPU since then as I needed a GPU for an HTPC and for my cousin and only got 1 notification besides the 3080 I bought but it came in December on my birthday and that was the one day I wasn't checking my e-mails every 8 hours as I was out with the family. It was for a 3090 too and I was devastated at the time, totally put a cloud over my birthday night when I saw the message almost an hour after expiration when I got back from my birthday party lol. I e-mailed eVGA about this after the fact then forgot about it. 3: I put in notifications for the 3080 Ti launch and the 3070 Ti launch a day early since I was a member from the 3080 I bought and I got lucky 2 days ago and received a notification for the 3070 Ti FTW3 Ultra which arrived yesterday with next-day shipping! Originally this GPU was going to go into a compact PC I built that was going to my cousin but when I called him to give him the good news he ended up saying he could only afford the RTX 2060 system I built (since I told him I would give him the RTX 2060, 8086k, 16GB memory, 700w PSU, SSD and HDD, Case, mechanical keyboard and gaming mouse, an adorable 24" 144hz 1080p curved monitor, and z390 board for free since I had them in my workshop but since I bought a B550 board, 5800x, and the 3070 Ti he was gonna pay the price I got them for...probably my fault for offering the free stuff lol) out of spare parts so I guess I'll be selling the 5800x/3070 Ti system locally or online (hopefully locally to minimize additional effort and for safety) and I thought that was the end of things...I got lucky pulls from the queues and I had a system to use and a system to sell...but there's now an added complication. 4: The reason I mentioned #2 is because after I got that notification late and e-mailed them (I told them the whole story about what happened on my birthday) it seems like eventually they put me back in the queue for the 3090, maybe not at the end where I should have been (maybe even at the front...how many of these monsters do they even make?) and yesterday I got a notification for the 3090...but it wasn't for the 3090 I was expecting...it was for THE 3090 and was a lot more money than I was expecting lol...I ended up buying it because I figured I had to given the current market and it should be here Wednesday or Thursday depending on the day they ship it (I didn't do next-day because it was Friday night at 8pm and figured it would be a few days no matter what). Now the Situation/Questions: After my desperate search for video cards for all these months I suddenly got almost all of them I wanted so I now have 3 x 30-Series GPU's and a couple reasonable 20-Series GPU's and I'm not sure how I should deal with this. I don't trust myself to make a decision because my ape brain is screaming at me to keep the 3090 and put it in my PC and sell the rest of them but there are a few reasons I'm not sure about that (besides the fact that the cost is nuts obviously)...this would be my 4th time rebuilding my PC in the last month (It's getting old) as I swapped from a 9900k to a 5800x (and Z390 to X570 Motherboard), then from that to a 5950x (which I pulled everything apart for as well since I wasn't happy with the cable management), then again to swap from a H500P Mesh to a Corsair 4000D Airflow because I wanted a more compact case (and still didn't like the cable management) since I carry it to my workbench so often to add/swap stuff around. Beyond that the 360mm radiator for the 3090 would likely not fit very well with the H115i Pro in the Corsair 4000D Airflow unless I'm missing something? Technically the 4000D will take a 280mm rad up top and a 360mm rad in the front but it seems like that's pushing it since I would think that would restrict airflow a bunch and things barely fit as-is. Would I probably need to go back to the H500P Mesh? I'd really like to sell the PC with the 5800x in it to make back the money I spent and I don't think the Quadro M2000 I had in it as a placeholder is enough to get a buyer interested so basically I'm wondering if you guys think I should open and install either of my new GPU's and put them into this PC to sell it together or keep them boxed up and hope for a buyer looking for a GPU alone that has a use for the PC as well. If I had to swap cases back then the 5800x PC would go in the 4000D instead of the H500P. Is there a safe way to sell cards by themselves right now if I wanted to do that without scalping? Just trying to get out of this surprise investment I made without screwing anyone over and preferably end up with the card that's the best fit for my situation. TL-DR below... TL-DR: A: Which Card Should I Keep? B: How Should I Sell the System I Built and the Spare Card Potentially? (Safe Way Locally/Online to Do So*? Sell With the Card Boxed Up or Installed? If Installed, Which One?) C: Will I Need to Swap My Case Back? (Any 4000D Owners Here With Multiple Rads?) D: Any Other Advice Appreciated Here, I'm Still a Little Stunned From All This...Don't Even Know if This is the Right Forum Category to Post This In... Note: I realize I'm very lucky here, both by getting lucky in the queues and by having the money to buy the cards in the first place and I'm genuinely sorry and feel for people still hunting for one at a reasonable price (I was seriously considering a $2,100 6700XT bundle from Newegg Shuffle the other day and am so glad I didn't do it, stay strong!)...this is why I'm not trying to sell anything for scalper prices but I do need to at least make my money back if possible which I think is reasonable given the fact that I've invested hours and hours per day looking for cards for months...it's just funny that they all ended up being from eVGA lol. Also, sorry for the long post, any typos, and rambling but my brain is not working properly at the moment due to the shock of all this. * - I was gonna use OfferUp which is an app I've used to sell a few small things locally when I lived in my old house, not sure if it's still good or if it was ever good for bigger things like this. Attached is my notify queue, I got 2 notifications at once for the 3080 XC3 and FTW3 in October and naively thought I only needed the one and that this whole shortage will be over soon so no need to stock up...if I had gotten both at the time I could have skipped all of this I suppose since looking for the 3080 Ti or 3070 Ti was just for my cousin and I was only passively hunting for a 3090 since then in case I stumbled into one.

Hey me Lads! I need a new Case with better Airflow, because my 'old' bequiet! Purebase 500D is sadly to small to handle good Temps for my new msi 3090 Ventus. I need a case where i can fit a 360 Rad in top of the case for my CPU. Any suggestions? Thx ^^

I'll try to keep this short. I was promised an RTX 3090 for a relatively low price and have been waiting for quite some time (as everyone else), however as it turns out I shall no longer be receiving said RTX 3090 and now prices have gone up considerably - RTX 3090's are priced at around $2800-$4200 in my country. I do however have a chance to purchase an RX 6900 XT for roughly 2000 EUR at the moment.. The issue: I don't want to keep waiting for a chance to buy something while the prices keep going up... Can someone please give me advice on whether I should keep waiting or pull the trigger on the RX 6900 XT? Information, suggestions, first hand experience are all VERY VERY welcome. --------------MORE INFO---------------- Use case: Primarily gaming, rendering, simulations The main thing I think I'd miss is DLSS..

Good morning yall, So im looking at getting a prebuilt to get my 3080. Are there any recommendations for companies to go through for prebuilts? Ive found a few, but didnt really like the specs that came with it besides the 3080. Plus theres always the concern they dont actually send the 3080 with the system. A 3090 would be alright as well, but prefer the 3080. I appreciate any insight people have in this topic.

Hi, I have very weird problem with 3090 MSI Gaming X Trio As described in title I get black screen and full fans on gpu after post when computer was turned off. After pressing restart button (when it is stuck on black screen) - things are ok, also no problems during gaming. And issue comes back next time I try to turn on pc. I have 3 separate cables from PSU connected to GPU. Temps are very good. Things I tried: 1. Tested with both single- and multi-rail setting of PSU. PSU is Corsair HXi750 and it have enough juice to work even under heavy load(monitored W in and out trough usb-link). 2. Bios and vbios updated to new ones. 3. Old rig (i7 6700+GigabyteGaming5+Corsair LPX RAM). 4. New rig (5900x+MSI x570 Unify+HyperX Predator RAM). 5. Turning off fast bood in windows 6. Setting PCIE from auto to 4 7. VGA testing in bios on/off 8. Fresh windows install, drivers from last year up to new fresh ones 466.27 9. XMP on/off 10. Unplugging internal USB hubs (case ports) 11. 2 different DP cables, all tree DP ports on GPU My current rig is: Ryzen 5900x Noctua NH-15D MSI x570 MEG Unify Corsair HXi750W 2xM.2 (WD and Samsung) MSI 3090 RTX Gaming X Trio I'm out of ideas what can be issue, espeially that when it starts (after reset) it works without any problems, even pushing pc very hard in top games. Anyone had problems like mine? Any ideas how to fix that, what could be wrong? I would realy like to avoid sending back GPU for warranty now.
