Mine worked fine for about 4 months at 1Gb and then became unusable with a VM Hub 3 and NetGear 7500 routers. I just got a VM Hub 5 and it seems to work fine so far with that at 2.5Gb.
Good MB & RAM for 7800X3D?

Hi @w00dy85 just bumped into this post while doing some troubleshooting.
How did your experience with the F5-6000J3040G32GX2-TZ5NR RAM went? I just built a new PC with a B650E-F and I’m unable to change them to EXPO in the BIOS, I can only run them at 4800MHz. Did you use any custom settings or just the default EXPO settings from the BIOS?
Based on the experience with your son’s motherboard, do you think I’ll have more luck if I trade them for the F5-6000J3238G32GX2-TZ5NR? (At least they are in the ASUS QVL).
Thank you in advance!
You can disregard this. Even though it shows at 4800 in BIOS, in Windows Task Manager and CPU-Z it’s showing as 6000, so I think I’m good.
Thanks anyway!
You might be reading the profile that it boots with in the BIOS, as they're usually programmed to boot at this speed and many BIOS just display the sticks this way.
ok, first of my idiot pc build questions:
Do I take off the label from my M2 SSD?
I have the Asus ROG Strix B650E-E Gaming WIFI and I had to take off a big lid to mount the SSD which might be the heatsink.
If so, do I have to peel the label away and mount the heatsink back in place?
Thank you!

You shouldn't be taking off any stickers from your m2 drive because it will void the warranty
My older build i peeled the label off of the ssd and put the mobo heatsink on top..latest build didn't.. made no diff and read the label can actually help spread the heat also. Bit dubious about that but as said, makes no difference.
Make sure you peel the plastic off the thermal strip on the mobo heatsink though...that will make a difference

ok, more idiot questions...
First of all, I put the power cables as for the manual:
Big one isn't an issue but there are two smaller ones on top:
This is the cable I used, it has one end with one cable (which I guess being the longer part goes into the PSU) and one split end which I connected to the MB with the other split being loose:
Is it OK this way?
There are also 2 cables I have no idea about:
This one should be USB 3 but it doesn't seem to have a connector on the MB
And finally two small loose ones that I have no idea what they are for, there is no mention either on motherboad or chassis manual:
Could you please help me?

Yup! So long as the loose one is safely tucked away and won't tangle with everything.
Looks more like a SATA connector? It could also be a Type-C, but I don't own a case with a Type-C so I don't know what they look like.
There's no label on them at all? Do they only have one pin?
It seems an USB connector but there is a 3.2 one instead so it might be optional.
Yes, they have one pin and there is no label at all, they seem to be coming from the front panel.
Anyone with a corsair 5000d?
Thank you!

The cables are correct for the atx 12v 1 and 2 connector at the top of your motherboard just checked the be quiet website for cables .
Be quiet straight power 12

The 2 small cables should be power led + and -
The usb c header should be on your motherboard.

How do I connect the front panel connectors to my motherboard?
To use the connectors on the front of your case you need to connect them to the header on your motherboard

From the instruction manual, the only front panel connector I can see with just one pin is the power LED positive and negative, with the minus having a triangle.

just got in...
top 2 look ok, though suprised you don't have a cable without the extension bit
2nd is a sata cable..the usb c cable is much narrower...goes in the slot just below the motherboard connection
3rd look like part of the bundle that does in the bottom right which do power etc, as @mickyflinn says
got the 5000x case at home home..trying to find the link to my build..might help(if I can find it, but don't think i photo's everything

Yes, it was power led.
I'm almost done, need to install hard disk and then put together and mount the thermalright frost commander 140.
Question: what will happen if I plug the PC in and something inside is not plugged correctly? I'm sorry about the influx of basic steps but it's been exactly 20 years since I last tried self building...

It won't work if it's a power cable but you shouldn't be able to mix cables, if you got the front panel header cables in the wrong pins then it probably not work or switches will swap around.
Just do a final cable check at both ends.
First boot gonna take a while to display on screen so be patient as the motherboard will be training the memory.
Not sure if I mentioned it before , lol I'm getting old.

KABOOM!
It'll be fine, don't worry
Most of the worst ones are keyed so you can't plug them in wrong and the front panel ones (which are not keyed) it doesn't matter if you mess up.
