Hey, I have gammax GT RGB cooler and unsure where to put the RGB cables, only one of the cables fits into the RGB header but the cooler and the fan also light up so wouldnt I need to plug another one in? I have a controller but its 3 pin for the ARGB fans at the front. Also is it safe to use...

Cheers guys, in a bit of a catch 22 now, my fault I knew about gpu shortage but got carried away. I don't wanna be stuck with my 570 for a year but I dont wanna pay stupid price for gpu either.

Thanks for input so far, I have ordered the ryzen 3600 and MSI MPG B550 GAMING PLUS AMD Motherboard as I found a good price. Any recommendations on the case? Would like some RGB fans included preferably. Also my RX570 isnt gonna cut it with 3600, so if I choose to upgrade what is the best...

Hey, thinking of building my own rig as mine is getting on now. Mainly for gaming at 1080p at the moment. Kolink Observatory Lite ARGB Midi Tower Gaming Case - Black Corsair CV550 80 Plus Bronze Certified PSU AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Six Core MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX Motherboard Cooler Master Hyper...

H55M-UD2H, getting on a bit now haha

Hey guys, so basically my system is kinda old, just bought crucial 240gb ssd, installed it, just as a second device to put WoW on. After loading into game, give it 10-20 seconds and computer locks up and shuts down, it was fine before on the HDD. It's running in ide, tried to change to ahci in...

Yeah 98-100% I'd say

Hey guys, so I just got the rx 570 and while playing AC:Odyssey I noticed the gpu usage was around 60% while fps was around 40, I do have an old cpu i5-760 @ 3.8ghz, is this bottlenecking it that bad or is something not right? I have downloaded the latest drivers for the card.

Ended up putting my i5-760 back in x3440 was running at much higher stock voltage and getting hot when overclocked, maybe a bad chip so bumped my i5 760 up to 3.8ghz now, idling round 40c and like 70-75 under load so I'll just leave it until I update. By sounds of it I'll basically need new...

Okay just taken it out. I loaded optimised defaults before hand and it booted like normal, then overclocked and it booted slow again.

Just about to try this, can I do it through bios or do I have to do it on the mobo?

I checked my bios version and it says F11, which is the latest one I could find online, im sure the fast boot option in bios has always been disabled.

Just installed the Xeon x3440 and clocked it to 3.6ghz for the moment but why is my computer taking much longer to boot up now?

Just ordered Xeon x3440 says refurbished but all I could find, 15 quid so no biggy. I just got the missus to get me the RX 570 for my bday, I dont actually have it yet, was hoping I'd be able to run it well on medium , oh well.

Thanks for your comments so far guys!

I'm in no rush tbh and no just a 500gb hard drive at the moment.

WoW, which is fine at the mo but just bought AC: Odyssey. I understand I'm not gonna be playing any recent titles at max settings with that budget so basically the best specs I can get that will give me a good boost in today's games.

Hey, basically I want to upgrade my cpu which means upgrading mobo/ram, hoping I can get away with keeping my PSU? So im looking to find mobo/cpu/ram/ssd on a 300-400 quid budget, I mainly game and browse. Current Spec Case - Antec 300 Mobo - Gigabyte H55M-UD2H CPU - i5-760 @ 3.6GHz RAM - 8GB...

As in it may not fit in my case? So think I'd be alright with a 600w power supply?

Thanks for the reply. Budget is cheap as possible really as I'll probably just be playing WoW on higher settings and it's not a demanding game. Are 580's still on the market? Also I know graphics cards have advanced since I used to upgrade hardware and I'm guessing most newer cards would...
