Putting tape on memory pins
Apollo 16 replied to Apollo 16's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Sorry I was on mobile. Another idea I had was taking off the heatsink of the dominator platinum and putting it on a completely blank memory pcb. Again, would that work or damage anything? -
Putting tape on memory pins

No, no I need to use the same modules to keep the Corsair design. I just want to know if there is any way at all I can put in two modules without working. -
Putting tape on memory pins
Apollo 16 replied to Apollo 16's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
I have a specific design to my computer and only using two would ruin the whole look. Would there be any other way at to put in memory without it working? -
I want to have fake memory in two slots. Could I put tape over the pads on the module to restrict it from being used but still clipped into the slot? The memory being used are dominator platinums.

Can you make FAKE memory modules?
Apollo 16 replied to Apollo 16's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Maybe I could tape off certain pins so to have a non working dominator platinum with the white LEDs still on. Would that work? Not exactly looking for any rgb since that would mess up the theme. -
So for a while now I have been using a 4x4gb dominator platinum kit rated at 3200mhz. It works but my motherboard is a complete wuss and doesn't go over 2666mhz with all four sticks but it goes to a little over 3200mhz with 2 sticks. I want to get a 2x8 or 2x16gb kit so I can reach those speeds since the games I play need it. Anyway the problem is my computer is fully water-cooled and soaked in rgb and I got the memory to match the water blocks but if I only have two modules it will always look like something Is missing in my eyes. Would I be able to convert two sticks into dummy modules with

Msi b450 Mortar Refuses to Overclock

I am using extensions on my power supply. Would that maybe effect the power to the motherboard? -
Msi b450 Mortar Refuses to Overclock
Apollo 16 replied to Apollo 16's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Sorry I forgot to mention that. Yes I updated the bios twice to the latest release. -
I made a sort of post on it before but I am desperate since I cannot find anything else like this. Here is what happens: If any overclocking settings are changed such as memory speed or cpu voltage/speed my computer either sometimes does a smooth reset into a black screen with the EZ debug led on CPU (Simply draining the power fixes that problem) or it will do a weird reset where it will just pop off with the power supply clearly stopped suddenly (I know the power supply is not the problem as I have tested the system with different power supplies. I have an RM750) and i'll have to wait

B450 Mortar Overclocking and Memory Issues.
Apollo 16 replied to Apollo 16's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Again i've tried everything including that. It just doesn't work. -
Hello! I just finished my computer and I need a little help. I have an Msi B450 Mortar and it refuses to overclock anything. Every time I try setting my memory to an XMP setting or change the processor voltage in any way my computer just restarts and bunch of times and resets everything. I have 16gb of memory that is supposed to do 3200mhz though I am stuck at 2133 nomatter what AND windows only lets me use 8gb of it and the other half is just gone. Please help nothing seems to work.

So I was bored and I wanted to see if I can Watercool a Via C7 cpu on my jetway itx board. What is the waterblock I should use? How would I be able to attach it? This is the board I have

Turns out the power supply was bad. I decided to just replace it with my old one today and it boots normally! I can't believed it worked. Thank you so much for helping me though. -

It says "press ESC to enter setup" though when I press ESC it doesn't do anything. -

I tried it an hour ago and just did it again. All I see is a dark screen with some text in the top left showing pc information.
