    Upgrading GPU, Do y’all agree?

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 05:25 AM PST

    So I built my first PC on the 5th of February and I have never been more excited in my life!! I decided to go with an AMD build so I have a Ryzen 7 2700x and a 5700xt but there's one slight problem... MY VIDEO CARD SUCKS 🙁 Their are waaay too many driver issues and I get too many crashes on games that don't even work the GPU. Like I'm crashing on L4D2.... really.. sooo I decided I'm going to change from that to a 2070 super. Y'all think I should make the switch ?

    UPDATE: Just got a EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super Ultra and I'm happy af. Thank y'all for the support, I'll let you know if I have any issues with this card but I'm %1000 sure I won't (:

    ANOTHER UPDATE: My 2070 super works flawlessly and as expected for its price.. I just want to say one thing though.. I am not downplaying AMD at all. I am still extremely happy with my build and the 5700xt worked really well when it wasn't having issues. It's just that right now I don't have the time to stick around with that card, I need something fast and efficient! I also noticed that some people who have these cards aren't having issues and that's good! I was just unfortunate enough to get the short end of the stick lol. You never know though I might go back to a 5700xt in the future if they ever figure out their driver issues. Thanks again!

    [GPU] There are so many

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 02:14 AM PST

    I'm heading to Micro Center next week and forgetting all of the other awesome deals, the GPU prices are making what I thought was an easy choice, into a pretty tough decision. First World problems...after my budget post on processors and GPU's a few days ago, my finances have gotten permanently and exponentially better. This is not to brag, but to sah thank you to everyone that gave me advice and told me to hold off on what would have been a poor purchase. I can now build my daughter her first gaming rig (my first build also) I've gotten off topic. Thank you for this sub and I've not been this excited since and happy in a very long time.

    Upgrade from Ryzen 7 1700 to Ryzen 7 2700x or 3700x on AB350 Mobo ?

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 04:37 AM PST

    Hi All,

    My CPU became faulty recently and it's time for me to buy another Ryzen processor. My current Mobo is Gigabyte AB350 Gaming 3 and the faulty processor is Ryzen 7 1700. I now have the financial means to either buy a Ryzen 7 2700x or 3700x.

    This is how the prices look like in my region:

    • Ryzen 7 1700 - £206.70
    • Ryzen 7 2700 - £129.00
    • Ryzen 7 2700x - £152.00
    • Ryzen 7 3700x - £259.00

    My PC Specs:

    • Ryzen 1700 (Dead)
    • Gigabyte AB350 Gaming 3
    • 16GB DDR4 3000 Mhz
    • EVGA 1080 8GB SC
    • Corsair RM850X

    My current Mobo had BIOS updated a few years ago, so around 2017 or 2018 and there is no way for me to upgrade it as my current CPU have crapped out on me. I might also replace the Mobo if the processor and Mobo costs no more than £300 together.

    I know that X is for overclocking and I don't do it but I have included the said processors as I couldn't find a pure 2700 or 3700.

    Now, the main question when it comes to the jump in the series is, does the newer Ryzen processors provides enough difference between 1700 and 2700 or 3700 for me to shell out extra cash for it ? Also, I think that my current Mobo might not support it as it's dated a bit (Chipset itself) and has BIOS that I'm unable to flash to a newer version.

    Any advice here ?

    Thanks

    Low FPS all of a sudden

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 05:14 AM PST

    Hello guys,

    The title already tells about my problem. I got a RTX 2070 Super and keep getting very very low frames in every game I used to play on Ultra settings 1080p on. For example: Assetto Corsa Competizione, used to rock 144 fps on Ultra and now I only get 58?

    I did update my motherboard and my drivers for my graphics card.

    My user benchmark says my RTX 2070s gets a score of 41.6%...

    ​

    Any help would be appriciated.

    ​

    Edit:

    I also get 14 FPS when I attach my VR headset to my PC. I have a Ryzen 3600 with 16gb ram 3200mhz.

    Looking for ATX or micro-ATX case recommendations for new Ryzen PC

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 06:08 AM PST

    About to upgrade my office PC and have most of my parts figured out. I'm planning to move from a mini-itx Haswell system to a Ryzen based ATX or micro-ATX build and will be moving the PSU and GPU from that build over in the upgrade. I like the size of mini-ITX, but not a fan of the upgrade limitations it imposes. Unfortunately, I'm running into issues finding a case that will work.

    Current list of parts I'm thinking of getting or already have: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Octoray/saved/LyDqpg

    I don't really have room to place the PC on the right side of my desk and will instead need to place it on a large shelf on the left side of my desk. This has been fine for my current PC inside a Fractal Design Core 500, but not so good for placing a larger PC. I've been looking for awhile now and haven't found anything that would work that isn't insanely expensive (Lian Li PC-07S), ugly, too big to fit on the shelf, too small to build inside of or is too open (Thermaltake P5). It seems the market is heavily oriented towards PCs that are placed on the right side of the desk.

    So I'm trying to find a case that is less than about $160, ideally has some sort of window to look inside (never had a PC you can look inside of without taking a side panel off before and would like to see what it's like), provides decent airflow so that my computer doesn't thermal throttle under heavy loads and fits at least one of the following criteria:

    1. Inverse case with motherboard upside down and window on right side of case - potentially ideal situation as it could be placed along the shelf and size wouldn't be as much of an issue. I kinda like the Thermaltake Core G3, but would rather not have to buy an SFX PSU to get it to work and it appears that the Corsair Carbide 600C is out of stock everywhere I've looked.
    2. Traditional case with window on left side - due to shelf depth, it has to be less than 14.5" in depth to fit on the shelf and still have room to connect cables in the back. Having trouble finding anything shorter than 15.5" in ATX, but would consider stepping down to micro-ATX MB if necessary. Something like a slightly smaller NZXT H510 or Coolermaster Q500L would fit the look I'm going for.
    3. PC case that can be placed horizontally across shelf (akin to HTPC cases) - still have the 14.5" depth limitation though and would like to have a window to look down at the PC components (kinda like a smaller and cheaper Nanoxia Project S or a much cheaper Lian Li PC-07S)
    4. Cube case - still needs to be less than 14.5" deep but can be much wider if necessary. The best option I've found is the Rosewill Cullinan PX but not sure how good it is and I've seen reviews of people complaining about dust.
    5. Non-traditional case - something like an enclosed Thermaltake P5 or a smaller version of the Thermaltake Tower 900. I like the idea of a PC case that's supposed to be placed sideways and has the power and I/O on the wide side and the cabling can be routed out the other wide side.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Ryzen 3400g vs 4000 series

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 06:02 AM PST

    I want to build my mom a computer. She uses excel, word, usually has a lot of tabs open and some other programs. She's a medical transcriptionist. The 3400G seems like a very attractive option but I'm just wondering if I should wait for the 4000 series. They come out soon, right? Would it even "matter" for this home/work use? 4c/8t with modest clock seems good already.

    Ryzen missing cores?

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 11:49 AM PST

    I've just now completed my Ryzen build, finally got the RAM and it booted fine. I flashed the BIOS to the latest one, updated Chipset Drivers etc. etc.

    And everything seems to be working fine, at least everything I needed. Vega 8 is running well and I found no issues. However my CPU usage seemed to be very high, so I went into task manager and to my surprise I found this: https://imgur.com/a/CvoJdOp (only 2/4 cores being detected)

    I tried lurking around the BIOS and System Configuration to no avail. Any tips on what might be causing this and how do I fix it?

    ​

    note: the processor is 4 core 4 thread

    Will i see any fps improvement in gaming at all?

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 05:37 AM PST

    I'm building a new PC but reusing my GPU because i don't have much money so I'll be going for some parts this month, I'll be reusing some old parts from my current computer (STD,HDD,GPU) and was wondering if i would see any improvement from upgrading from this piece of shit to the newer piece of shit.

    It's time for a new gaming computer

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 07:58 AM PST

    I built my last PC about 5 years ago. I mostly game on my system but I am no professional gamer. I just enjoy gaming as a hobby.

    Core I7-5820K
    GTX 970
    16GB of RAM
    2 1TB SSDs

    I can play games at 1080p with decent graphics, but I would like to start maximizing my graphics and I would also like to do some 1440p gaming as well. I am really looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077 as well as a slew of other games that are coming out this year. I like FPS but I also do a fair amount of RPGs and RTS games as well.

    I have been an Intel guy through and through but with the Ryzen processors on the market, I am considering giving them a try. Here is what I came up with for a parts list. I have more money in my budget if needed.

    https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QGpqPn

    Questions....

    1. The monitor is what I have the biggest question on. A 27 inch is what I have now which is good enough which is why I chose the Acer Predator 27 inch. However, I think an ultrawide would be better like the Acer Predator X34. Any thoughts on what a good monitor would be?
    2. The case is the same case as I have now, but I am going to reuse this computer which is why I am going to buy a new case. I like the Corsair cases a lot, but I am wondering if there is anything better from a full tower case perspective that I should be looking at.
    3. Since I am getting the Ryzen 9, would it be better to just go with the Core I9-9900k? I would spend a bit more, but I am very comfortable with Intel processors. Never had an AMD before.
    4. Let me know about the parts that I speced out and what you would recommend.

    Thanks!

    Brought a new case and PSU; now my PC won’t start up.

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 01:03 PM PST

    Hey guys, I will first start but saying these are my specs:

    Motherboard - Asus prime B450M-A Cpu - Amd ryzen 5 3600X Graphics card - Nvidia RTX 2060 Super reference Ram - 16Gb Crucial Ballistix Sport 2400mhz Storage - Silicon Power 1Tb Nvme ssd PSU - be quite! Pure Power 11 500w

    I bought the PC second hand and everything worked great. All I wanted was a new nice looking case and a new PSU. I swapped everything out but now when I turn on my PC the fan turns on and the motherboard lights up but my monitor stays black with the fans on constant full blast.

    I will admit this was my first build. I plugged in the 24 pin power cable, the 8 pin CPU cable and the VGA1 cable ( I think it means PCIE power cable). The only unused power cables are my VGA 2 cable, and two cables with 4 pin inputs.

    I will be externally greatful as I start building in the afternoon and it's now been 8 hours :(

    Thank you all.

    Is my PC killing my HDDs?

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 12:56 PM PST

    A few weeks ago, I replaced the internal hard drive that came with my refurbished computer because Windows stopped recognizing it. At first, the replacement Seagate HDD worked great, but lately it's been showing signs of imminent death (randomly disconnecting and reconnecting, games installed on that drive hanging for seconds at a time, odd noises coming from the HDD during use).

    ​

    Is there something wrong with my PC? I've read that computers that kill HDDs could have an issue with the PSU, could that be the issue? If so, how can I diagnose this for sure? Any other reasons my HDDs could keep dying? My PC otherwise runs great.

    I've replaced the SATA cable with a new one, but unfortunately I don't have access to another PC to see if the hard drives have issues there.

    Opinions on a build I’m buying from someone

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 02:23 PM PST

    Hey PC friends,

    I usually really enjoy doing my own research, but I'm in a bit of time pinch and I don't know a lot about gaming PC hardware to feel comfortable buying this without some more info. I figured if any of you were familiar with this hardware, I could get a second opinion from the more learned folk? I'm potentially buying it from Facebook for $550.

    "Cpu-Ryzen 7 1700 Cpu cooler - RGB prism Wraith GPU-RX 580 8gb Sapphire Pulse Motherboard - ROG Strix B450-F Gaming Ram-16GB 3200mhz DDR4 SSD-128gb m.2 day Nvme boot drive 512 M.2 storage drive Fans- 6 total Fans Case-Thermaltake Core PSU - Cooler Master Fully modular Gold Rated 650W"

    Any tips would be appreciated.

    Thanks to the people on the sub for helping me pick the parts on my first build! Just need to do external cable managing and it's fully ready! It absolutely shreds all the games while recording! setup overall isn't very aesthetically pleasing to most of this community, according to the people who downvoted the full setup earlier, but it's still an amazing PC with amazing peripherals to me!

    HOW TO check for iGPU health?

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 02:10 PM PST

    hi,

    today, while watching netflix, i noticed a couple of artifacts here and there, that lasted maybe 1 frame each.I know that could be just transcoding and streaming errors (?) but being th pc a 2013 macbook pro and knowing how hot the haswell i5 is allowed to run, i'm worried it could be caused by the gpu aging.

    Is there a way to validate it? how can i check for the iGPU health?

    thank you in advance

    Help me determine if I'm having GPU problems or something else?

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 01:59 PM PST

    Hi guys, and thanks in advance!

    Here's where I'm at: I've had a couple of problems that should seemingly have to do with my GPU drivers, but they've at least once persisted past a full formatting, so I'm wondering if they have to do with my hardware. (Parts list at the bottom!)

    Describe your problem. List any error messages and symptoms. Be descriptive.

    Problem 1:

    • Problem: When my computer is asleep or sitting idle for a while, I will occasionally not get any video signal.
    • Attempted Solutions: I've done the usual troubleshooting attempts of looking up similar situations and following the steps people suggest, none of which have worked. Included: reseating the card, trying different cables, cleaning out my video drivers and reinstalling from the website, testing with a different monitor, etc.
    • Successful Solutions: None have worked! Restarting temporarily solves the problem (I'd have to use the power button to restart), but after reformatting did seem to happen less often.

    Problem 2:

    • Problem: Twice now, I've gotten a BSOD followed by a bootloop. The error of the initial BSOD was "KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED", with a "what failed" message that read "nvlddmkm.sys." This first happened 2-3 months ago and then again last night.
    • Attempted Solutions: After looking up these codes, I determined that this almost certainly an issue with my drivers. I tried the various solutions provided by people online, including: checking for any recent driver updates (there were none in either instance), attempting startup repair, booting into safe mode -> clearing out my GPU drivers -> reinstalling them from the website, running a memtest in order to see if they had to do with my memory (no issues found).
    • Successful Solution: After attempting these all, I eventually gave up and reinstalled Windows from a thumb drive, which worked--except, like I mentioned, this has happened twice... I just had to reformat again last night due to the same BSOD followed by a bootloop.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Here are my two basic questions:

    • Are there any "GPU tests" I can run the way I ran memtest to determine if my issue has to do with my GPU?
    • Am I right in assuming this is a hardware problem because the issue persisted through formatting Windows & driver resets?

    The case will either be this Cooler Master or this one from NZXT. I will also be keeping the GTX 1080 Ti from my current rig, and upgrading that sometime later this year.

    A lot of these components were picked with the help of Puget System's hardware recommendations for After Effects, as they have a lot of good insight into what makes a good AE build. With that in mind, here are some reasons why I picked some of these parts:

    I need 6 total drives: One M.2 for my OS/Applications and one for my AE media cache, a 2TB SSD for project files/working media, one 1TB SSD for my rendered files and one for my game files, and finally a 6TB hard drive for archival/misc.

    After Effects prefers CPU speed over total core count, so I'm sticking with the i9-9900k (and will be planning on overclocking) - I also do a lot of VR gaming so that helped my decision. Additionally total RAM size is preferred over RAM speed, thus the 128GB DDR4-2666 memory.

    I am hoping all of these parts make sense for what I'm aiming for, but I'm still new to all of this so any advice or recommendations would be amazing! Thanks in advance!

    What upgrades should I focus on?

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 10:54 AM PST

    I plan on upgrading my PC when my tax returns come back, but I'm not sure what I should focus on more, CPU vs GPU. Currently I'm running a Ryzen 7 1700 and a GTX 1080. I run on an ultra wide 2560x1080 166hz monitor, but alot of games arent getting the performance I want, and ideally i want to future-proof my rig for awhile. Advice?

    Choosing a psu.

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 02:56 AM PST

    Hi.

    So i've some trouble deciding which modular psu i should buy regarding my setup.

    • Asus rog Swift pg279q.
    • Evga RTX 2070s ftw3 ultra+.
    • Amd Ryzen 7 3700X + NZXT kraken x62.
    • MSI meg ace x570 + 2x8gb from Gskill.
    • 1x2tb HDD /2x1tb SSD /2x500gb NVMe.
    • 3 fans + amd fan from 3700x air cooler.

    I guess a modular psu with 750W 80+ gold/+ should do it, but I still wanted to get a feedback cuz i doubt. The pc will be used pretty often for gaming, streaming, editing and personal use.

    Thanks !
