AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

[robfosters]

yea but if it's making a clicking noise that doesn't sound right - a psu won't shouldn't make any clicking noise, loud or quiet. only noise i want to hear from a pus is maybe a bit of hum from the fan!

If it’s a bad bios, would the case power switch still fire the PSU up?

My EVGA PSU clicks every time I turn my PC on or off. It'll be a relay.

Have you pulled the BIOS battery for 30 minutes and replaced / retried?

Any Dual BIOS switch to the try?

 

[Gee]

Was being a bit odd after updating it. Not restarting properly, no bios screen. I then powered it down using the power button, and nothing since.

When I switch off from the mains, then switch on, the lights on the mobo and cooler flash for a millisecond but do nothing. Then my RGB ram lights up, but still completely dead when I switch on. Only if I switch off and on from the mains do I get that brief flash of light. Also, when I switch on for the first time, the psu makes a loud clicking noise. I've cleared CMOS using battery method and jumper, but still no luck.

Leave the battery out for 10 mins or longer. Few of us on the (unofficial) OcUK discord were having the same issue.

My gigabyte ultra is running the latest bios with no issues.

Definitely try a different psu to rule it out.

I imagine it would depend how bad the bios was. 1st gen Ryzen my bios bricked the board, actually bricked both the primary and backup. Case power switch still flicked some mobo leds to life but that was it.

A loud audible click? I’d not be having that. Never heard a healthy psu click in my life. Not saying there’s anything actually wrong with yours but I’d not be happy with that at all. I could be wrong but I’d be surprised to find a relay large enough to be audible inside a psu.

My Superflower has a soft click when it powers on or off

Apologies if it's already been posted...

Going on the video it seems undervolting can increase maximum boost clocks.

I think my new PSU does that as well.

My cheap Taichi has been despatched

I cancelled mine. Was umming and ahhing for ages so I ended up flipping a coin At best I save myself £250 to spend on something else, at worst I can simply spend £200 on a 3600 which will actually most of what I need to do. I will do a proper upgrade when the next AMD chips come out unless I see a nice deal.

The chipset fans/temps kind of threw me off a bit which is what made start re-thinking if I wanted to keep it.

Now stood with my ear to my superflower turning it on and off. If I hear a click I’m blaming you sods!!!

My Seasonic focus plus 850w I got six months ago does exactly the same and sometimes clicks at other times.

Chinese download only appears to be working so far.

3800X shipped. My case will finally get a good clean out.

AFAIK that's something to do with switching the +5V rail so USB devices still receive power.

Thanks for the advice, but no luck.

The mobo led’s go off, but the ram ones stay on all the time.
