Its intel duo

#

For server

#

I found it

#

Now I buy it

digital kernel Jul 9, 2020, 5:52 AM

#

I don't know much about wifi cards either, but my guess is you'll have better luck finding a gigabit capable card with a pcie x1 form factor

gritty patio Jul 9, 2020, 12:11 PM

#

Yeah I wouldn't waste the m.2 slot when they won't hinder the performance like they did on b450

Hey guys, I'm starting my second build now. I had a good amount of spare money for the first one and just went for a Rog Strix X570.

neat glacier Jul 9, 2020, 2:59 PM

#

nice

#

what cpu?

icy juniper Jul 9, 2020, 2:59 PM

#

I'm using a Ryzen 5 with a 2070 super, but I was wondering what (more budget) motherboard would you guys recommend?

#

I was thinking of getting the Asus Prime X570 Pro which is a solid 200 usd less

neat glacier Jul 9, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

woooooahhhhh

#

@icy juniper

#

this is my rule of thumb when it comes to building a pc-

#

your mobo should cost just about less than or equal to half the price of the cpu

#

if it doesn't, then invest in a better cpu with the excess money from the mobo

icy juniper Jul 9, 2020, 3:11 PM

#

@neat glacier I was trying to go way over my head on the mobo to leave a lot of room for upgrading in the future

neat glacier Jul 9, 2020, 3:24 PM

#

@icy juniper mind if u send me the build? I can help you out, maybe make some edits for a future proofed build

#

also need budget and usage

icy juniper Jul 9, 2020, 3:24 PM

For sure @neat glacier

Hey, I've got a quick question for you guys. I'm looking at getting the GIGABYTE B450 AUROS ELITE AM4 AMD B450 SATA 6Gb/s ATX AMD Motherboard from Newegg and wasn't sure if it would have the BIOS to support Ryzen 3000 series CPUs. Does anybody know if it will?

so the b450 tomahawk is now $250, up $125 from last weeks $124.99

charred venture Jul 9, 2020, 7:21 PM

reasonable

#

microcenter has mobos back in stock tho

with the XT processors as well

naive pendant Jul 9, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

something is up with pcpartpicker

#

now it's listing it as $124

long geyser Jul 9, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

it's a bad board for the price anyways

#

so meh

#

whether $125 or $250, both options are overpriced

void egret Jul 9, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

hey I'm pretty new to building computers I was just wondering if any one could explain how a more expensive motherboard might help my computer in any way

wintry rose Jul 9, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

I think it depends on what you are trying to do with your PC

#

Some offer more options to add stuff to it

#

Sorry pretty basic answer but thats the best I got off the top of my head lol

long geyser Jul 9, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

depends on what you want:
-Better VRMs (power delivery) for OCing (overclocking)
-better BIOS with more features (like LLC [load line calibration] for OCing, Infinity Fabric OCing, etc)
-WiFi
-better sound processing unit
-more NVMe M2 ports
-more SATA ports
-more USB ports
-more PCIe ports
-10Gbe networking
-dual RJ45 ports (ethernet port)

Plus a lot more. It depends on what you are doing and what your needs are. It'll usually not make a difference for a standard consumer

hollow thorn Jul 9, 2020, 10:35 PM

#

But a decent board will do just fine for most people

#

As long as a board is decent, incremental gains are meaningless

#

For example, 1.5gb to 10gb lan doesn't matter to most people

#

like 8 stages vs 12 stages doesn't matter unless you do OC

wintry rose Jul 9, 2020, 10:42 PM

#

More stages = more OC?

hollow thorn Jul 9, 2020, 10:43 PM

#

not directly

#

just means more possible power

tranquil wolf Jul 9, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

Bought an msi mpg z390 gaming edge ac mobo today, swapped it in with my i5 9600k and 32gb 3200 ram, now if i have the xmp on it today random bsod

hollow thorn Jul 9, 2020, 10:54 PM

#

random bsod is random

#

doesn't point to anything

#

it could be anything at all

#

what is the stop code

tranquil wolf Jul 9, 2020, 10:56 PM

#

It's never the same, one was Kernal mode heap corruption, one was kmode exception not handled, one was system service exception, last one i noted was Kernal security check failure

hollow thorn Jul 9, 2020, 10:59 PM

#

General fix for random windows problems

From an admin command prompt or powershell, run:

sfc /scannow

If that doesn't work, try:

dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

Then, try running sfc again.
Repeat as necessary

#

those are just random bsods that can be involved with just software

tranquil wolf Jul 9, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

Yet it only happens if the xmp is turned on

hollow thorn Jul 9, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

just try it

#

Get that out of the way first

#

windows is buggy

tranquil wolf Jul 9, 2020, 11:12 PM

#

Even with a fresh windows install?

hollow thorn Jul 9, 2020, 11:12 PM

#

sometimes yea

#

its just wacky

#

Better check software before hardware and before considering RMAs

tranquil wolf Jul 9, 2020, 11:14 PM

#

The only new hardware is the mobo, and that store is 1.5hrs away lol

mild jackal Jul 9, 2020, 11:16 PM

#

What sticks? Sometimes xmp doesn't work out of the box.

tranquil wolf Jul 9, 2020, 11:17 PM

#

Corsair vengeance

#

4x8gb

#

If i leave the BIOS default i am fine, if i go into BIOS and turn on xmp and reboot it shows they are 3200 but then 1 to 5min later i get the random bsod

tranquil wolf Jul 10, 2020, 12:47 AM

#

so i did all of the Powershell Admin stuff, no go still. So i removed 3 RAM and tried one at a time, each worked in XMP mode, then tried them in pairs, worked as well, then tried all 4,, now it appears to be working, so maybe it was loose in the slot? idk but it is working lol

mild jackal Jul 10, 2020, 12:54 AM

#

Can you post a parts list?

#

Or the exact models of your cpu/mobo/mem?

#

Running a userbenchmark and posting the results works well

whats the diff between wi fi 5 and 6

main pulsar Jul 10, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

802.11ax compatibility

#

so it doesnt really matter a whole lot if your router doesnt support 802.11ax

#

the only way your router supports it is if you paid a ton of money for a router very recently

#

like, mid 2019

sterile spruce Jul 10, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

i havnt

#

we may upgrade because our att is doing fiber so we may upgrade i dont know enough about it

main pulsar Jul 10, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

ahh

#

well, if you have the option, wifi 6 network cards really arent that much more expensive

#

and most newer motherboards come with wifi 6 if the board has wireless networking capabilities

Does Ryzen's specific RAM comfiguration still apply, or can I use all 4 RAM slots on my B450? Running a Ryzen 5 2600X.

digital kernel Jul 11, 2020, 2:24 AM

#

Zen+ is still a bit picky. Some kits will work in all four slots, some won't

frozen jackal Jul 11, 2020, 2:25 AM

#

noted. been thinking of getting another 16GB kit at some point, followed by the upgrade to 3rd gen Ryzen

#

but I guess i'll just go straight to a newer mobo, then proc and ram

upbeat lichen Jul 11, 2020, 2:33 AM

#

yeah, i'd avoid mixing kits if possible, normally it should work no problem, but i've read stories of people having stability issues mixing ram kits, because one set struggles to support XMP timings or something along those lines

frozen jackal Jul 11, 2020, 2:43 AM

#

I mean, it'll be from the same brand and model (Corsair Vengeance Pro)

#

would it still have stability issues then?

upbeat lichen Jul 11, 2020, 2:44 AM

#

it shouldn't, and probably won't, but i've still heard of issues happening, rare as it might be

#

it's usually just best to buy a full matching set at once

I installed a set of 16gb oloy warhawk into my last build, a few months later I put another set in (same make and model) in. I don't know what happened but all 4 sticks fried and had to get completely new ones

frozen jackal Jul 11, 2020, 6:25 AM

#

when you got the new ones, did it work just fine then?

#

cus it sounds like I'll have to just get the 4 sticks at the same time, rather than getting another set later

plain flume Jul 11, 2020, 10:52 AM

#

I have a msi gaming plus z390 i7 9700k and 32g of corsair ddr4 vengeance rgb (8x4). After installing the second set of sticks, I started to become unstable in just about everything (at their rated speed 3200). I've since lowered the speed to 3000 on the ram and my system is stable again. Would it be most efficient for me to run the ram at 3000 x 32gb or 3200 x 16g? I primarily game, began getting into streaming and recording, for context.

#

I think the motherboard supported up to 3600 speed, 64gb, I can't quite remember, but I do know it was far more than I have installed

neat glacier Jul 11, 2020, 3:36 PM

#

@plain flume I don't know the solution to your problem, but I do know this: running RAM 200 mHz slower won't drop you more than 1 or 2 fps.

long geyser Jul 11, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

Probably secondary timings, IMC voltage, or mem voltage that is messing with you. Realistically streaming with NVENC or a capture card won't use much RAM, not will gaming. So I doubt you'll need 32gb. But also 3000 vs 3200 will make very minimal differences in perf on Intel.

ionic hamlet Jul 11, 2020, 6:35 PM

I'm sort of mulling over going with one of the MSI b550 boards. I really like the way they look and I don't seem to be hearing any callouts of them being really bad.

So my girl's build was completed yesterday and everything is fine. She ran the game Ark then it froze and locked up her pc. Weird she tried to run Elsworld it would crash within 2-3 minutes. Havent done the benchmark test but I think its due to incorrect or not up to date AMD drivers? Specs are Ryzen 5 3600, 16 gb 3000mhz, RTX 2070ko

#

And the motherboard is Rog Strix B450-F gaming

i reinstalled windows and it fixed my ram detection issue

try that if nothing else works

long geyser Jul 12, 2020, 3:20 AM

well, put the freq, timings, and voltage in manually

hollow thorn Jul 12, 2020, 3:20 AM

Try using the Memory try it thingy
(Or whatever equivalent you have in your bios)

hold up let me go into bios

hollow thorn Jul 12, 2020, 3:20 AM

manually doing all the subtimings is hard :P

long geyser Jul 12, 2020, 3:21 AM

subtimings shouldnt change all too much hopefully. Should at least be good enough to do 2133 effective I'd hope

hollow thorn Jul 12, 2020, 3:21 AM

also not too sure why it's running at 2t command

should prob be 1t

Let's try XMP settings manually

Those are the current settings

What do I put?

long geyser Jul 12, 2020, 3:23 AM

So it put 13 manually?

#

or 16?

hollow thorn Jul 12, 2020, 3:23 AM

wait that is xmp timings

#

right side is changes left is before

naive pendant Jul 12, 2020, 3:24 AM

I think yes

#

But why does windows only say 16gb useable or is that normal?

long geyser Jul 12, 2020, 3:25 AM

when you opened up the OC Tweaker did it have CL at 16 or 13?

It’s running at 13

But I can change it

To 16

hollow thorn Jul 12, 2020, 3:25 AM

change it to 16

naive pendant Jul 12, 2020, 3:25 AM

#

On the right side

hollow thorn Jul 12, 2020, 3:26 AM

#

and try frequency at 3200mhz

like xmp

long geyser Jul 12, 2020, 3:26 AM

so you changed it to 16 and then took the pic?

naive pendant Jul 12, 2020, 3:26 AM

Is i7-4790 to Ryzen 3 3100 a good move? Userbenchmark in all its bias places then dead on top of each other, and I'm pretty sure I dont need anything better.

Hey Everyone!!! Just joined. Wondering if any of you could shed some light on whether or not the asus tuf b450 should be compatible with ryzen 3rd gen out of the box w/o needing a bios update. The info I can find seems to be conflicting

upbeat lichen Jul 13, 2020, 11:19 PM

#

At this point in time, it shoudl be. that warning was really only applicable when there were still boards coming out of the factory with an old BIOS. by now, they should all have the right BIOS when built

#

there is still a very small chance, if any retailers have really old stock in the warehouse kicking around

#

but unlikely

winged kiln Jul 13, 2020, 11:22 PM

#

thats what I was thinking

#

I did buy from newegg and all mobos seem to be selling like hot cakes

Does anyone have any ideas why my mobo's RGB isn't the same color as anything else in my PC?

do you have connected to argb or rgb?

My fans and cooler are connected to it if that's what you mean

RGB on them is

is it a three pin connector or 4 pin?

potent dew Jul 13, 2020, 11:24 PM

Pretty sure 3

#

Seems like it's just a lighter color than everything else

#

My mobo

winged kiln Jul 13, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

ok, If the mobo changes color but its different... like ones blue and ones red, try rgb swapping in the software

upbeat lichen Jul 13, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

yeah, the supply issues with things like motherboards means that anything you get will probably be pretty fresh from the factory, so BIOS issues shouldn't crop up at all

potent dew Jul 13, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

?

#

Oh I did

winged kiln Jul 13, 2020, 11:25 PM

but if mobo is same color as your fans just a different "temperature... not sure what could be the issue

Nvm it's only when I use the preset light blue it's lighter

autumn aspen Jul 14, 2020, 1:25 PM

#

is this right spot to talk about the sleep/hibernation functions on the PC?

#

I'm just curious about Sleep mode, I recently had an old OCZ power supply that died on my music workstation (it was about 10 years old) and often I'd have the computer sometimes on, but in sleep mode. Does this harm the PSU in anyway?

#

like, I'd use my workstation for an hour, take a break for like 30 minutes, sometimes a few hours if I have to run errands.. the computer would be asleep. I'd leave all my applications running just to come back to it

#

Partly why I ask is because I also have a PC for gaming, and frequently it sleeps after 10 minutes of being AFK. I'd imagine it saves power usage no?

any gpu short of 2080 ti will bottleneck that kind of cpu

right now, im looking for a budget cpu and a great mobo to run the best possible cpu overclocked for gaming

#

and then in the future i'll look for an excellent cpu/gpu combo that runs fine on my mobo

neat glacier Jul 14, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

well... cpu won't do as much... usually u wanna try getting the cpu and mobo at the same time, bc there isn't a garuntee a mobo will support a cpu as well as a next gen mobo

waxen current Jul 14, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

i see what you mean... it makes sense

#

should i get a budget mobo/cpu pair for now? and then whenever i have $3k spare i'll get new gpu/cpu/mobo

neat glacier Jul 14, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

duudeee

#

3k is enough for a op mobo with 10900k, 2080 ti, nice cooling, etc etc!

#

it's a whole build

waxen current Jul 14, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

i just exaggerated lol

#

but you got what i meant right?

#

instead of invest on a good mobo right now, should i do it only when i buy the high-end cpu/gpu?

do you like the motherboard choice? i wanted a matx just because i wanted a smaller build... but if an atx is way better i wouldn't mind that much

main pulsar Jul 15, 2020, 4:53 PM

its all just form factor

#

the only benefit to ATX is you get more PCIe slots

waxen current Jul 15, 2020, 4:53 PM

hmmm

yea, I'll probably need ony the pci for the gpu

#

I plan to overclock it

#

the most as i can

main pulsar Jul 15, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

yeah, basically, motherboard choice for a midrange cpu is nearly irrelevant

#

all Z490 boards are designed with running a stock 10900k in mind

#

so, an overclocked 10600k? no problem

waxen current Jul 15, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

that's good then! hahaha

main pulsar Jul 15, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

however, some brands are better at overclocking than others in terms of bios support and ease of use

#

iirc, gigabyte and asus have good overclocking bioses

#

you should ask what mATX motherboards are good for ocing a 10600k in the #overclocking chat, and someone will get back to you at some point

np

#

also, cities: skylines is not very multithreaded

apparently the unity engine is quite limiting in that regard, so the 10600k is the best choice
