I have a h170 pro gaming motherboard with a i7 processor, 580 rx radeon, 700w power supply , corsair vengeance 8gb ram , 120 gb hard drive . Power was working fine with my 430w .

Computer doesn’t turn on when I hit the power button on the case.

what is your question though
so for context i have the o11d mini and obv am top mounting it. there are screw holes where i assume is where you screw in the radiator through the case. the screws themselves are pretty short but i’m worried about the screws slightly going into the radiator fins
the aio orientation is 100% correct but i’m just wondering if the screws are fine slightly touching the fins

hey guys, i just got a 5600x, but when i put it in the mobo the system boot loops with no display, and the gpu fans are on full speed. as soon as i put my 1600af back in it works no problem. Ive tried resetting cmos as well as resetting bios. I have reseated ram and reconnected all psu cables. I have also made sure my motherboard is compatible with 5000 series and updated my bios. any suggestions?
fossil cedar
hey guys, i just got a 5600x, but when i put it in the mobo the system boot loop...
Have you updated the bios on the mobo yet?
Nvm just saw
Was it a beta bios you used?
cosmic cloud
nope just the latest release on the website
cosmic cloud
alright ill be back
fossil cedar
Hopefully that works
cosmic cloud
@fossil cedar ive tried that it hasn’t changed anything
i’m not sure what else it could be
fossil cedar
i’m not sure what else it could be
Can you get into the bios at all?
cosmic cloud
nope just a boot loop with gpu fans at full speed no display
and like i said everything works perfectly with the 1600af
fossil cedar
Hmm what board is it?
cosmic cloud
b450m pro4
muted patio
Is that Pro 4 in a prebuilt?
cosmic cloud
no i built it myself
cosmic cloud
i tried that and it didn’t work, someone suggested using a previous version so right now it’s on 4.60
yep ive just stuck my 1600 back in and it works perfectly
muted patio
In the BIOS itself, does it say 4.6?
cosmic cloud
im not sure, but it says so in msinfo32
muted patio
What was the original BIOS version you had?
IN the BIOS notes for that board, there are certain steps that need to be taken while updating
cosmic cloud
i unfortunately dont remember
muted patio
"**** If the current BIOS version is older than P2.00, please update BIOS to P2.00(PinnaclePI-AM4_1.0.0.6) before updating this version."
muted patio
Have to update to a certain version first before just going straight to the newest
muted patio
I'm also suspect of the BIOS update itself because on the newest one, I don't think the 1600AF should work because they removed microcode for the Summit, Pinnacle and Raven CPU's
stoic island
I wonder if it just doesn't let you update beyond 4.6 because you're using a summit ridge(?) Chip?
cosmic cloud
hm so you're saying since i can boot my 1600af on "5.10" then it might not actually be 5.10?
stoic island
Yea
muted patio
Yes
stoic island
Scroll down on bios page
muted patio
"Update AMD AGESA to 1.0.0.6.
- Please install "AMD all in 1 with VGA driver ver:18.10.20_NHDA" or a later version before updating to this BIOS.
** If you updated the BIOS before updating the AMD all in one driver, please refer to the Display recovery SOP to recover your system."
muted patio
cosmic cloud
ok yea thats what im on
muted patio
All the yellow notes in the BIOS descriptions
According to that, your 1600 AF shouldn't work
cosmic cloud
hm when ive updated the bios it says update completed successfully
so if i update my bios to 5.10 and my 5600x doesnt work what should i do
cause it wont recognise the 1600?
muted patio
No Diagnostic LED's on that board?
cosmic cloud
nope
im going to check the version in the bios in the meantime brb
ok it’s on p4.60 rn so i’m theory it should work right
muted patio
Yes, it should
stoic island
CPU DoA too rare to conclude right now imo, I think it's still bios being weird
cosmic cloud
is there anything else youd suggest i try?
im open to anything i really want this to work
this is my parts list
muted patio
Try it with just one stick of ram in A2
Maybe it doesn't like all the ram all at once
cosmic cloud
alright brb
a2 being the left most slot?
nvm its the second slot
but ive actually tried that
ive tried each of the 4 sticks by themselves
@muted patio?
muted patio
IDK at this point. I'm not finding any smoking gun doing some research with that board and the 5600x upgrade
muted patio
I know. Might be CPU at this point? Return it and try another one or test the CPU in a friends machine?
cosmic cloud
i guess ill have to try a new one since my friends are on intel
its just gonna be a pain since it was delivered from newegg i did not get it in store
muted patio
People report their old CPU works after the BIOS update, they pop in the new one and go.
So I don't see any reason it shouldn't work :/
cosmic cloud
fr i dont either
wait i just remembered my brother has a b450 pro4 (atx not micro atx)
im dumb
im gonna try in his
fossil cedar
Yeah try it in your brothers, you could just be unlucky and it could be a dead chip at this point ¯_(ツ)_/¯

his isn’t detecting the bios file
cause his is on 3.90
but it’s not seeing the 4.60 file
guess i cant test it on his
i think ill just rma :(

Filters good, less dust

potent portal
Filters reduce dust but at the cost of a small amount of your airflow.
It's doable to run without your filters on but you'll be doing a lot more dust maintenance for not a lot of airflow.
Unless you have really thick filters, which I've seen. Those just suck.

Hello everyone. I am new to pc gaming and I am trying to find what the best pc I can get for my budget. I have a budget of 1000 to 1200. Some of the games that I play are FFXIV, Ark, want to try Rust, among other survival games and MMOS. I am mostly a mobile gamer so I would like a PC where I can run multiple games on multiple instances. I would like to get a pc where I can start streaming as well if I desire. Yes I know the prices on graphics cards are expensive so I am looking for something that I can use for now with out a graphics card and later I can easily buy and add one. Thank you so much for anyone that reads this and decides to help me I sure can appreciate it.
potent portal
1200 is slightly over entry level right now. Let me see what I can throw together.
stoic island
@glass plover Well, how much do you think you can spend later on a graphics card? I would say that's the main question atm
glass plover
<@!211952012407996417> Well, how much do you think you can spend later on a grap...
anywhere from 400 to 600 i would say trying to keep the system under need 2k if possible
potent portal
Ah that's much more workable
stoic island
Yea... smth like 1000 without GPU is a lot of room in terms of budget
glass plover
and to be honest i just want something that would run bluestacks 5 smoothly with two or three instants open everything else is just a bonus
like right now i can only run one game in bluestacks and play ff14 if i want to play ark i have to shut off bluestacks
stoic island
well, ark is horribly optimized anyways....

anyone have any predictions on when the gpu market will calm down? i literally only need a gpu and my pc is finished

Quickly threw together an overkill igpu build, @glass plover I wouldn't expect this to play rust or ark natively well without a GPU, but with a GPU, it should be good, although if your focus is on just straight up more instances of bluestacks, it might be worth swapping CPU for a 10700k or smth, it's also just overkill, lots of spendy bits you probably don't need.

hell, different manufacturers measure it differently
cubic feet per minute iirc

@hallow glen you can probably slap a 200cfm fan on a 212evo and still get worse performance than a fuma 2, despite like quadrupling the cfm rating on the fans on the fuma 2
hallow glen
wow

@hallow glen think of it like you could have the best fan ever on an aio, but if it's just a random 120mm rad, it can't do much against a mediocre 360mm aio

jaunty river
rancid lodge
32gb RAM is the performance sweet spot
If you could afford 2x16 at 3600 CL16 (or 14 if you can afford that furthermore) it’d probably be a better option
Also if you’re going for the tuf gaming x570 and a 5000 series, get the pro version
Trust me, you will want that bios flash
If you don’t have it, getting your bios updated will be extremely difficult, basically forcing you to either borrow a compatible CPU to slap into the system temporarily to update the bios, or just return the mobo and get one with flash
@analog knoll but yeah at 1080p you’ll get around 175 fps with max settings
