The issue was that the partition map got corrupted and the file system for the windows drive isn't detected, and since it's just a gaming machine it's easiest to fix just by doing a clean install
If the installer is ready then you'll plug the drive in, go to bios, find the boot order, and put the USB drive on top. Then it'll boot to the installer.
Sorry I just saw this I think I did it right
I deleted the 100mb thing in the windows installer
If that was what I was supposed to do
Well it worked it seems
W
5800x3d is such a boon for previous am4 owners its freaking crazy
not me still on a 3700X
I'm pretty sure they cover that in this vid

Weโve done plenty of build guides before โ But now weโre taking it to the next level. Not only will you know how to build a PC, youโll know how to build ANY PC โ This is the LAST guide youโll ever need!
Discuss on the forum: https://linust...
i watched that entire video already
and it didint go over the specifics too welll
but i figured out my problem
Do you have a USB stick with windows installation media
i didint know i had to run the program on my usb
i thought i could just get the installation media and go
now
Nope you gotta run, it'll take like 30 ish mins to install
Yo I need help if anyone could hop on a call with me right quick I got issues with my fans
Then you just boot to the usb, and it's basically a next next next situation
What's the issue?
So 5800x3d is good to get
If you're stuck with am4
@fossil cedar I have two front fans, an aio with two fans on that and they work but I canโt control the lights with the icue software. There is two hubs that came with my case (everything Corsair btw) and I think one is for the power button reset and usb, the other is for the fans. The aio came with a bigger hub and I want to use that since it will fit everything. The problem is on my mother board I only see one usb. Which is being used by the usb to power the power, reset and usbs on the front.
Ah ehh you only have 1 usb front panel header?
@fossil cedar my case comes tomorrow I hope it fits
Lol should I buy it
Do you have any use at all for that much storage
Because a 4tb hdd is $60 and a 4tb ssd is as low as $270 for the mx500 st times
I was gunna store games on it rn I have 2TB ssd and 4TB hard drive I'm gunna download sole games and see what happens I just got the gamepass today and I'm downloading some games to try
I won't buy I was thinking tho
Anything I should change before I start ordering?
You'll save 20$ going 5600 instead of 5600x
I'd swap psu too 1 sec
PSU wise I'd prob grab Core Reactor 850w
@cyan ravine I "should" have enough space if I don't I can get like 2tb or 4TB hard drive
SSD wise, P41 plus is nicer for 60$
Change from 5600X to 5600
Literally the same cpu just a different name
And yeah psu and ssd I agree with
Id do this, and personally I'd swap out the case for the the 70$ fractal focus 2 instead

Also swap board because basically the same
Don't have to get a cooler tho if you don't *want to, stock cooler in the box is fine
@cyan ravine I hate my pc
It won't let me run freaking 3600 CL16 G1
Stop overclocking
I have K processor
Accept reality
G1 gives more FPS
Kenzie remember when we talked about power math last night?
I run XMP
I trust the board to know what gear you need 
Now even 3500 is running not are my cpu is poop
Cpu is not poop
Gear 1 better
Smh if you wanted good ddr4 CPU imc shoulda gotten 11th gen
Yes but I don't trust you'll have no issues with gear 1
(please don't actually)
If the board says gear 2 for you I trust it lol
I was on i3 with 3500 CL16 G1 stable
Different chip
Yes bit G2 is worst performance felix
13th imc isn't necessarily better
Yes but if I started yapping off values and hours of stress testing would you do it?
Kinda seems like a futile chase
Going from 3500 G1 from 3600 G2 I got FPS increase all I want is my ram to run at 3600 CL16 G1 that's all
A good few people have been having issues with 13th gen d4 imc
Someone in #overclocking had a 13700k that had a worse imc than their 12600k
You just offended a whole PC enthusiast community
Ram oc weirdos be like:
Fps increase is what I like to see tbh

Man doesn't deserve a 4090 after that statement
Kenzie you have a z690 right?
Yea
I wonder if the ram controller with 13th gen on z690s is worse
Id guess ddr4 imc is just getting worse
The ddr5 imc is seemingly better
Or if it's just that the 13th gen imc for d4 is worse so the d5 one can be better with some weird intel screwery
I mean, no reason for them to improve it
Maybe
Also possible for them to just purposefully make it worse
Also true
In order to make people go d5
The intel slides did at one point say the imc would be upgraded iirc
I hope my 13600k can handle 3600c16
But yeah the proof is in the pudding
I highly doubt it'll do 4000c16 anymore
I mean it's just a number
Was hoping my Rev e could manage it but I doubt the imc will handle it in g1
Oh yeah it can (in gear 2)
Cache makes it faster with the clocks
Kenzie what ram do you have again?
Possible it's also the die of the ram limiting you
MOTHER AHSVABVD MY CASE HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY AFTER GETTING EMAIL FOR MONDAY
?
G.skill hydic
Is esacnor still here?
Hynix I think is the attempt there
One I can't tell here
Yes
I hope my Rev e will manage better
@cyan ravine I'm more concerned
Can you send the link to the case?
Okay let me make video really quick bc typing out to many words
I 100% refuse to just use xmp with this ram anymore
I'm atleast getting to 3600c16
No kenzie
Thanks
Np
Ballistix at xmp is illegal
Kenzie is making a video about trying to make the ram train at gear 1
I believe
And I already know what that looks like lol
@cyan ravine it working now
I explained in video it's weird
My mobo shows red lights so I shut pc off but then when I turn it back on it can run what I put in bios? My xmp did the same thing
It takes a few minutes after changing ram values before it will actually boot
You can't just instantly turn it off
You have to wait
Well I would sit for 5 mins back screen
Ok so what you did was eventually trained it after a bunch of retries
It's unstable, like, 98% sure
But 3600 G1 gave boot failure right away
Oh you did 3500?
Well that probably works but you want to ram test
TM5 with anta777 preset for at least an hour and a half would give confidence if error free
What is TM5
Lol
Sips said prime 95 and OCCT
Those work too
I'll do TM5 seems better
Prime 95 turn off avx1/avx2
Where is safe download to get TM5
this
Ye
running for 1 hour please wait
P95 I'd do longer tbh
It's fine
any tips for a particularly stuck cmos battery lmao
Yank it hard
Don't force it
my fingies
If anything, put it back, then just short the cmos header instead
On my mobo I had to use a flat object to wedge it out. Don't be stupid like me and don't use a knife
There should be a lil tab to pop it out though
Imagine having these on mobo
yeah idk if i have a tab on this one
You should know where these are since this applies to you at this specific moment
it's oem mobo for an acer aspire lmao
Ah
I have none
Idk if I believe that
Could try a flat head screw driver but I'd do that as a last resort. I'd check if you can short the header like Felix said
Lol
Kenzie
Idk manual said other wise
Are you doing ram tuning on your main windows install?
i took the whole computer apart at one point but i have all the pieces again now, would just be nice to have it working again even though it's not worth using
I think I can see a vmos header under the battery
I mean if you don't really care much about it you could risk the screwdriver thing. Just make sure psu is off and you do a power drain imo
Bios
it has been unplugged for months idk if it matters?
how long do the caps take to discharge
Only this and I pressed button but nothing happened
I mean are you using your main os drive
When you boot to windows after bios
Yes that's all I have

No this
Under the battery
Definitely run rawrs batch file after you finish tuning
100%
You can easily corrupt windows while ram tuning and not know until it won't boot
Oh there's 2 little poles there
Lol
Lololol
Can I have link
I think its pinned in #windows-ios
If you're patient enough I'd run it after each unsuccessful oc personally
fun fact this acer aspire will bluescreen constantly if i put my gtx 960 in it
Okay
@cyan ravine rawr has this too
Winrawr
even if i bought winrar i would still use 7zip
7zip gud
@cyan ravine might have to build pc for my little brother lol
He's starting to play games om steam lol
I play game
Occt tests as well
I did both at same time
If you do both at the same time it's half and half, not 2 full tests
That's half baked
Hmm
I'm far less careful about this than sips and I'm telling you to do more tests
If you have bsods or driver issues again you know what I will point to 
Okay
hey guys i have 16gb of ram and i wanna upgrade. the thing is i have trident z royal (silver) and i wanna add more ram but they did not go on sale sadly
u think its cursed if i get a different brand of ram
If the die is the same, it's fine
Ya trident royal looks pretty but lack of sales and semi over priced
so i just slide a different brand it should be good or nah?
What is the die by what do you mean?
O lol thought it meant something else but yes
You'd probably have to download typhoon burner
The die is the manufacturer of the chip of the ram
Hynix, Samsung or micron
I think those are the only three, I'm probably forgetting one
There's a sticker on the side that has a product code and 042 code
360 code also?

< learning from the higher ups
Those tell you the specific kit and specific die (die=the chips on the stick)
so if i buy these for example
will they work
There's no guarantee until you find what die your ram is
And corsair uses different dies for the same ram, so there's no guarantee
I'd suggest another g.skill kit
Corsair 3200 c16 is like, the true mystery meat of ddr4

I agree with bacca, read the codes off the back of the sticks and buy the same kit
The code should read F4-3_00C__ etc etc
Look up that specific code it'll lead you to the same kit and hopefully the same dies underneath
Even better if you try the same seller
Or sell the 2 you have rn and go buy 2 16gb sticks
so the best option is to buy the same ones i got before
or this
It's more likely you'll get mismatched timings and ultimately something slower
It could corrupt windows or just straight up not work
I used mismatched dies without knowing, I didn't know what was causing my issue

I had over 40 blue screens and then corrupted windows
ooof
I had to wipe my entire main drive and lost everything I had on it
i have 16gb of ram but games these days are taking ram more than 90%
Some can do that yeah
32gb of silicon power is like $70
same buyer same everything for the trident royal
displayport to hdmi adapter
yea but i have to buy the old ones
i guess lesson learned if i wanna buy flashy stuff
Nah you can then sell the old ones
And you make off even better
Say $40 for the royals
30$ net for 32gb

from newegg?
One sec

These too
i appreciate you helping me

sorry to disturb you guys again but i did some research @cyan ravine @mossy venture.
it turns out trident z royal and corsair vengeance pro use the same samsung b dies. same rated speed, voltage, and frequency
the only difference is the latency
for corsair:
16-18-18-36
tirdent z
16-18-18-38
I am not at my computer, Can someone look at the tier list for this PSU?
G.skill uses Samsung and hynix in their low end kits, not necessarily b die
Corsair uses to my knowledge almost anything, not just b die
yeah but i looked up the vengeance pro specifically
If you end up with corsair b die it also sucks, really hard
Yeah 3200 c16 vengeance pro b die specifically sucks
why 
Because they want you to pay for the good stuff lol
If you want cheap b die look online for used sticks
alright 
s12iii be terrible
tier e
no protection
Good enough for me. In the bin it goes.

Dude can't wait
Time to build another PC. ๐
If a pc has no gpu cpu doesnt support integrated graphics. If i connect port on back of pc to monitor will it run
Well.. yes, it will run, but it will not output a display. If it has no GPU and no Integrated Graphics, then it has no way to output a display.
As far as everything else.. yeah it'll run.

What neo said
So i basically need a gpu then. Im only asking cause im waiting on the gpu which i would order either next week or following week cause im hoping with release of amd 7000 gpus that 6800xt will drop in price
dont put high hopes on that
6800xt is probably as low as its gonna get for a while.
prices are already too low
I think 6800xt is back in stock at $535
My idiot brother who knows more about pc than i do say wait
new 7900xtx will not compete with current market, so prices most probably will remain the same across amd board
Well, now you're more informed than he is. ๐
Stay in here and ask questions and you'll be more knowledgeable than him in no time. ๐
but dont put high hopes on that
for now 6900xt at 700, 6950xt at 800 and 7900xt at 900 are very well priced, dont think amd will cut their own products even more
at least not this year
maaaaybe after ces in january... maaaybe
Should i get stock 6900xt from amd or after market if i cant get 6800xt
that kind of choices must be made on your own pal
Thanks
6800xt is a great card, the bump to 6900xt money wise is not that great over the 6800xt
but as the bois said already, prices are already on the floor, have that in mind
Don't forget that time and enjoyment have value too. Sure it could possibly drop $50 in 3 months but do you think you'd have gotten at least $50 worth of fun out of it?
thats also true
in fact time is invaluable
50 bucks in 3 months wont gonna cut it
and the best time of the year to enjoy games is december... so many downtime xD

How much better is a 2060 over 1650 ?
1650 pretty bad card tbh
not a bad card tho
just a lot worse than 2060
if you get a 1650 at 100usd then its a good card
What is gdr5 and 6
the memory type on the card
is a lot slower on the 1650
for me there are only 3 bad cards: 6500xt, 6400xt and 1630gt ๐
no price could save those cards
true and true
i apologize for that as well
So go for thr 2060 or any other recommendations
depend on your budget
how much are you willing to spend? also... are you comfortable with used market?
I am not to worried about budget since there is a limit on what the pc can handle
I dont want to get a card that is too strong
But I want to give him an upgrade
you can upgrade from a 2060 up to a 4090
thats why we need to know how m uch are u willing to spend
350
your cpu, yeah
plug and play.... no, not even on nvidia
you need to ddu for a clean driver install
heck i even had a 3060ti on an intel 4770k some months ago
thats even an older cpu than yours
Thanks everyone
Does Ryzen 2000 support SAM or did that start with 3000?

I meant* in comparison to the 2060 and the actual 1650 prices

okay... finally I decided to build this

6600 didn't drop to 199
so I can't buy it without paying 80$ tax

Ohh you mean why it isnt itx?
Would a $210 6600 be over your budget?
Ahh
Colombia
Yeah but I haven't seen any good deal
like I could get a 1080 for 200$ at best
and 6600 round 230-240$ used
It's horrible
if anything I'll sell it next year and upgrade for smth better

Thermaltake gf1 650w is 55$ atm if you're in the us
sadly... backorder atm
brainstorming a build rn. expected to be building before the end of the year
$1640 max budget pre-tax
user is expected to use the PC without any major upgrades for the next 6-7 years (current PC is 6-7 years old rn)
does occasional streams, dusty environment, cooler either needs to be a compact air cooler or an AIO cause the system needs to be shipped, and a big heavy cooler like a ak620 is a risk.
mix of gaming loads, lots of MOBA / and diablo/POE, regular strategy games like warhammer, and regular mix of survival games.
^ hence why i focused more of the budget into a fast CPU and memory over maxing out the GPU.

Iirc that case comes with 2 fans? Can add some, but not required.
6800xt does get a bit hot, but it shouldn't throttle. Imo a repaste would be more worth it if Temps are too high

Thatโs really good
Jr was a recommendation given earlier
It
Going to be his Xmas gift 2tb ssd and 6700xt
kev i was looking at 6800xt for my pc till i saw a 3060ti that was a rlly good deal
i heard that in fortnite and in val amd gpu glitches sometimes
thats amazing
same
i was thinking you should go with 3060 or 3060ti
Right now he used the geoforce stuff
but ur cpu might not be able to handle 3060ti
Yes 1080
the 3060 will fit
@mossy venture 
Don't get a 3060
Only reason I don't want to run it is because Nvidia is what he knows
He's 10
And ima newb
We are learning together
6700xt
You can get a 6600xt that will match the 3060 for $100 less

@weary galleon look at your dm
Cheaper but 11th gen Intel and case might be bad: https://www.newegg.com/yeyian-katana-x10/p/N82E16883630017?
Better gpu and case, but worse cpu: https://www.newegg.com/avgpc-max-3070/p/3D5-002N-00016?
Better cpu (12th gen): https://www.newegg.com/p/3D5-002D-00060?

I have everything but my gpu which i will order later. Cpu does have intregated graphics. Can i use my old gpu rx560 in the pcie 4.0 slot? To set up windows install games and everything but playing games?
Pcie is backwards and forwards compatible
You can use the 560 to do anything until you get the new gpu
Including gaming
But it wont do intensive stuff like 4k60 until i get the new gpu right
depend on the game ๐
Could prolly run like, valorant at 4k
or csgo
Minecraft
Also once i get new gpu do i need to uninstall drivers once i get new gpu getting a 6800xt

But its both amd
Still two diff gpus, it would be good to
It's possible it won't cause issues, but its also possible it will
to eliminate that uncertainty you need to ddu always
Let me ask my brother about that
e_e
Why ask a question if you're not going to listen to the answer if it's not the answer you want lol
his brother must be a techie ๐
we could be wrong, you and me both bacca
btw glad to have you back home pal ๐

Hm. Considering you called your brother an idiot for telling you to wait for amd gpu prices to drop even further after we told you that they have pretty well dropped as low as they are going to go, I'd think you'd be more inclined to just listen to us and not even bother wasting your time asking your "idiot" brother.
I haven't got a cancelation email from Walmart about the ssd I ordered
So I think they're going to honor it
That or send me the wrong size, in which case I'll just return it
i think the latter
like that one time when all the people went batcrazy here for a mistakenly priced 3080 pc and was a chromebook
maybe they will send you the wrong size
It hasn't shipped yet though
Since the charge is still pending on my account
So ig well see
Still possible it'll just get canceled
It doesn't matter that they are both AMD. They are different cards with different specs. Drivers tailor themselves to that specific hardware. Take away that specific hardware and introduce something new to it, those drivers don't know what to do with it so things start going wrong. Let's see your brother give you that answer. 
yup most of the time you hit unstability or bsod for no reason at all
I probably uninstall the amd drivers and install the new 6800zt drivers
thats why is always recommended a ddu
Uninstall the amd drivers through the amd software.
Don't use ddu for amd. It's not as effective
Isnt ddu for mostly amd to nvidia or vice versa
no
Mostly, sure. But when changing gpu at all you should ddu
It takes like 20 minutes
Why risk having issues to save 20 minutes
Yes this. Sorry, meant to throw in my statement when just reinstalling drivers on same gpu.
No wait buy now
Can anyone help me choose a psu and refine parts before I buy everything?
Part List - AMD Ryzen 5 5600, Fractal Design Focus 2 ATX Mid Tower
I mean on another hand buying new tech is nice but how stable will it be on first launch
Either buy the parts or stop asking literally every day
Part List - AMD Ryzen 5 5600, Montech X3 Mesh ATX Mid Tower
Come back when you're actually going to be buy the parts
Because asking literally every day for a new list when prices change is pointless and annoying
It's been what, two weeks almost now?
Sorry Iโm new to this, and I donโt have the most money so I really donโt want to buy something that wonโt be worth it, because I wonโt be able to afford replacement for a number of years
Do you have the cash right now to buy the list that Bacca just linked?
Yes I do currently, my budget only stretches to 1150 at most
K then buy what he has on the list. It's solid and good price. Then you don't have to worry about upgrading. The only thing left would be for you to look at GPUs.
If you want to save money, a good 650w psu would support a 6800xt
If gf1 is still on sale that'll work
Itโs not sadly
One second then
Yeah there's no good 650s cheap rn
Then thatโs fine

uwu
I don't know what you mean by the 2nd part but i can help with the first, can you put what current parts you have into

And tell me what your budget is to moving to itx?

theres also ql120's in it but i think i wanna replace those
besides gpu and cpu im not particularly attached to anything
like im open to moving to a smaller mobo to get into a smaller case, gpu permitting
Will def need a new mobo, and obviously case
Ok
small as i can go while still fitting gpu
Id do this

Just know the aio comes with fans for both sides but don't do it like that either use them as case fans or sell them or something
it takes a normal psu?
It does
Yeah it does
P12s would be a good choice
perfect
Yep I'd just use what you currently have
i appreciate yall โค๏ธ
now just gotta sell my other pc lol
Oh ye, just take the fans that you alr have and rhe ones from the aio
That's the smarter choice lol
is the aio interchangeable at all?
Wdym?
The one you already have?
i hate the fans i have
Then ye p12s
like do i gotta use an ek one
i dont have p12s
im plannign on getting some
i have corsair ql120
Some other 280mm aios wouldn't fit I think
worst pc decision i ever made
Uhh it's the best one that fits but no
Ek make really good stuff would recommend
i prolly wont go any rgb this time around anywya but still lol
The software will be fine ye
yah guess it dont rlly matter
pl120 have little to no branding
and the ek waterblock is clean
cpu block*
Nope cuz the pump leads go straight up instead of to the side
Ah rip
thank yall!
You can just not plug in the rgb if you wish or use your motherboard rgb software or openrgb or something
prolly gonna keep rgb on waterblock to match gpu and those will be the only two with rgb
wait ram
so yah
Lol
Also the non-flexboot is so bad. Bought a certain monoprice cable & completely sliced off the latch cover.

soo the buddy with 12400f and 6600 is upgrading his rig
this came out to be the final list
he already has the mobo,ram,psu,ssd
Get a different ssd
Like mp33 is a good budget option but this is a 3.2k build
Also maybe wait for rdna3 instead of a $2000 Nvidia card idk
forgot to say already has the ssd aswell
Ah
Why all the way to 13900kf lol
he insists lol
Might as well go less overkill on CPU and GPU and upgrade ram and SSD and all
well techinically the build should work tho
just min maxed af ik
The ram will leave a lot to be desired
hmm lemme convince him then
13900k with ddr4 3200 lol
he will draw some girls on things like blender soo justifying that i9 to me
i actually dont understand what he means by that
i am more into gaming benchmarks tbh
That psu is not good enough, yes it's an 850 but it's an atx 3.0 850 that will be fine with a 4090, not 2.0.
16gb ram with a 4090 is insulting, please grab a second kit of the same ram if he already has a kit
yeah its already updated
Rmx handles transients better than the leadex iii, and 4090 with smthn like a 13600k might be fine
Not 13900k though
hmmm i see
13900k alone can pull 300w
I think rme 1000w is cheap rn
Sale mightve ended though, I'll check
love to hear how much he will pay for that 4090 tho
if it was me i would stick to 12400 and just get a 4090 lol
Yeah sale ended
I believe this is A tier https://pcpartpicker.com/product/yxzhP6/super-flower-leadex-vi-platinum-pro-1000-w-80-platinum-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-sf-1000f14pe
dk how much he will benefit in blender from i9
$1800


I have a 3060, r7 5700g, 16 gb of ram, 128gb ssd and a asus b550m-k, what should I upgrade for Christmas? I was thinking my ram, I'll mainly be playing warzone 2
What do they currently have?
12400 and 6600
No but all the parts
hi
Because like obvs they cab reuse case motherboard etc if good enough
Yesterday I connected a ps4 controller and everything worked fine today it connects and disconnects why ?
I'd say ram or storage, and next big upgrade gpu
Ram would be a nice chouce
Well ram,motherboard ,ssd,psu and case
Can you put it in pcpp?
Part List - Corsair 5000D AIRFLOW ATX Mid Tower
What's the budget?
3.5k
around that mark
if it was me i would pair the 12400 with 4090 and be done with it but probably not the best idea for blender
Ehh honestly i wouldn't go 12500 with 4090

It should be out in January yeah
Hey i need help with possibly upgrading my pc. i want to get a new motherboard bc the one i have currently is like a small one with only two ram slots but i wan a new one with 4 slots. i also might look into getting a new cpu in the future but i dont want to spend more than like $350 currently on the motherboard (price is flexible). can someone help me find a cool one?
Current Cpu is a amd ryzen 5 3400g with radeon vega graphcs and my motherboard is a x570 aorus pro wifi
Should I get 8x2 and have 4 sticks of ram or should I just get 16x2
Should I get 8x2 and have 4 sticks of ram or should I just get 16x2
If you can get a matching kit to the one you have now 2x8gb should be fine, otherwise get 2x16gb
Would the Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard go with my cpu?
Changing mobo would serve you no performance gain at all there lol
Honestly spend the money on 2x16gb of ran instead and a new cpu
Would just change cpu, if you need more ram you can sell your current sticks and get thicker density sticks in it (ie 2x8 to 2x16)
do you think thatll save me money?
3400g is worthy of an upgrade, especially if you have a good gpu in there
Yes
You get the net gain of selling the 2x8 ram
Going to like, 5600, or 5800X3D and a new cooler both good ideas for you really, just depends on how far you want to stretch the pc (your psu wattage and specs will weigh into this)
You have a gpu yeah?
your priorities are completely backwards
you put square wheels on a lambo and want to upgrade it to a ferrari but keep the square wheels
is this compatible? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/#compatibility_notes
Choose Your Parts
G has an iGPU and is much slower
G adds integrated graphics and drops one generation of cpu performance
ye i currently have the g lol
Those should be the last cpus that can take ddr4 ever released
Is the matching kit just the same 2 sticks?
@jaunty rover just make sure you update to the latest bios before putting the 5600 in
ok
r3 3200g similar to r3 2300x
r5 3400g similar to r5 2500x
r5 5600g similar to r5 3600
r7 5700g similar to r7 3700x
Mhm should be okay
