Really, it could not have been that great. Probably with clock speeds below 4 GHz. What AIO unit do you have?
-
An AIO with one fan cannot cool a 9900k, not even close. Good enough for a i3 but that's about it. You want something better or use a stock cooler if you have nothing else. Also make sure that the pump is running at full speed all the time.

CD probably means custom design (made for Lenovo?). Fixed probably is reference to the cables being fixed aka non-modular. I don't think it means non-removable. 380W is on the low end side of things for that setup though. -
I recently retired a WD black that started to sound the same. Nothing wrong with it but probably some wear on the bearings. Mine made the case vibrate a bit as well (actually quite annoying at times). I'd replace that drive and maybe use it as cold storage if you need space (not connected to power and data).

Do you have another PSU to test with? If different games crash pretty much about the same time it could be unstable power delivery, the alternative would be the card. Let's hope it's just the psu. The warmer a psu will get the more it will loose in efficiency. Your PSU should have plenty of headroom but 5 years can be the end of life for many units and everything past 3 years on non premium units is a gamble. How many games have you tried? Btw. did you also try older graphics drivers?

I am guessing temps are fine but make sure to check anyways. Unstable OC? How old is your power supply?

Have you tried contacting the support team: support@lttstore.com ?

Both games use the Unreal Engine 4. Maybe there is a driver issue and you just have to wait for a fix. Try other games as well. I would not return the graphics card. Getting one again in the future could be hard. As for twitch streamers, unless they have exactly the same pc with the exact same devices and bios settings, the results are not comparable. You may also want to adjust settings to compensate. As for the drop in cpu load, either it's the driver, would not be the first time nvidia has rushed a release or something else is running in the background. Make sure only the game is running, n

Please wait for the new cards to arrive. That is overprices and afaik, alibaba ships in bulk so you will have to buy 1000 units or something stupid like that. You can use Aliexpress for single units but even then I would not want to buy something as complex as a graphics card from that marketplace. You have absolutely no warranty whatsoever (it is china) and you will have to pay some hefty import fees, increasing the price to around 600. If you won't pay the import fees in time, the card gets send back and you have lost all your money.

Will the RTX 3060 Ti bottleneck the Ryzen 9 3900x (or vice versa)?
Applefreak replied to MrDBD's topic in Graphics Cards
If the term is used broadly than yes because you have to parts that perform quite differently in games. Commonly it is understood that this is a bad thing. I would not use it that way unless you are pairing an awful cpu with a high end graphics card. Having too much cpu power is never a bad thing. The cpu does other things than just supply the graphics card so having more power available can make things that run in the background be less noticeable. The other way around would be a problem to some degree as the gpu would have to wait for the processor to catch up. -
Looks like you have a driver issue with one or more devices connected. Maybe try removing everything you won't need to install the OS. Another way would be to create a install media like a thumb drive or a dvd if you have a drive and boot of that to update the OS. If that fails as well, backup the content of your os drive and do a clean install. You want to move your game libraries off the M.2.

WD Gold HDD, no need to boost it really. Transfer speed is around 200 mb/s sequential already. There won't be much benefit with an optane ssd, which btw. would need an intel platform afaik.

Try Mini Tool partition Wizard on Windows if you don't want to use the console. You need to clear all partitions, then convert to mbr and set fat32 for the drive. You can later change it to whatever you like. The important thing is to clear all partitions on that drive first. GPT on thumb drives is hit and miss with windows and other devices while pretty stable in linux and mac os.

As things stand, yes.
