I'm about to drop a juicy 5800X into my desktop and am going to build a mini ITX with the left overs. I bought a Fractal Design Node 202 a few months back and am wondering what is a decent Mini ITX motherboard to plonk in there? I won't be doing anything special with it and am going to run it...

I've been using a Ryzen 2600 since a few months ago when I sold my 3700x in anticipation of Zen 3. I've already gotten my refund for it from Amazon, just need to send it back before February. I'd planned on buying a 5800x since it was revealed. I even upgraded to a Tomahawk X570. But I recently...

Morning all! Hope you're well. I recently received my new Ryzen 9 5900x and had nothing but problems to start with! Multiple reboots with WHEA Uncorrectable Errors, Cache Hierarchy errors etc, even the DOCP settings meant I couldn't POST so had to clear the CMOS and start over! I was able to...

Some weeks ago I found that new BIOS, chipset drivers etc and several other drivers we're out and decided to update everything. Before updating my idle was between 30 and 35 degrees and under load 50 - 60 degrees. I update and suddenly my temps has risen quite a bit according to MSI Dragon...

Morning guys and girls, Sorry if this is considered spam but I’ve tried to get through via phone with no luck. On hold for hours and then just drops out. I ordered a 5900x on 5th Jan when it had an “in stock” status. Shortly after the order, the item went into a “pre order” status. Did I order...

Hi, really new to PC builds Can someone tell me if the: AMD Ryzen 5 3400G Processor with Radeon RX Vega 11 Graphics is compatible with the MSI Ryzen B450M MORTAR MAX AM4 mATX Motherboard. I'm building a PC, not for gaming, so dont require an expensive graphics card. The case I have bought...

They get comparable results with a Ryzen 3300 and a GTX 1060 - 1070. Wow.

Everyone talks about 3600 MHz being the sweet spot for DDR4 because you can run an 1800 MHz Infinity Fabric with a 2:1 ratio. But I'm wondering, could you run it at 1200 MHz and 3:1 with DDR4-3600? Or 1600 MHz and 3:1 with DDR4-4800? Is there any benefit in so doing?

Hi, im new to even basic overclocking and need some help with an issue im getting when trying to use an XMP Profile. I recently purchased 32gb of Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB 3200mhz Ram, this is however running at just 2133mhz currently. I have attempted to use XMP Profiles (both 1 and 2) which...

Hardware Canucks recently released a video on the topic of Ryzen and memory. They talk about memory ranks, number of sticks, timings, speed, latency, the infinity fabric, the memory controller. The list goes on but its simple enough and presented in an easy to follow format.

I'm just trying to measure various cooling options in my new case, and thus attempting to fix variables. However, I can see the 'package power' jumping suddenly from 75W to 125W a full *six minutes* after the system has been running at 100% load (with Prime65), the fan fixed at 100%, and the...

Hi all, I've been searching the forums, the Web and YouTube and although I'm finding some answers I end up with more questions. Can someone with good knowledge of memory please help me understand: 1. Is 3600MHz the sweet spot? 2. I hear CL16 is ideal, especially paired with 3600MHz. Would...

I had a quick search but nothing stood out. Are the benefits of pairing AMD CPU & GPU substantial? If you had a Ryzen 5000 series would you notice much difference running it with a 3070/3080 and then with a 6800/6800xt?

Hi there I am building a system and am almost there but am having trouble with the correct memory. I have a B550 gaming carbon and a Zen 2 Ryzen 3900XT. I am most interested in getting the best performance I can for running Cubase 11 so ASIO is very important. I am going to go with 4*8gb...

As the title suggests, show us your cooler for your Ryzen 5000 series CPU!

Good afternoon :) I really really want a 5000 series Ryzen CPU for my new build, however I am fully aware that stock is limited at best. I have read elsewhere on this forum that some have opted to purchase an older Ryzen CPU to fill the gap between now and a time when the 5000 series are more...

Hi all. I have been lurking on the forum infrequently since the release of the 30 series cards. I decided to order a 5900x as soon as it released and unfortunately the website wouldn't let me purchase it before it ran out of stock (classic launch!) I'm just wondering if anybody else has...

I have a x370 board at the moment which I highly suspect to be responsible for random lockups I get every now and then (memory related), been looking at getting a 6800XT on release, do you guys think a 5600X+B550 would be worth it for the extra ~10% GPU boost + 12% CPU IPC gain + no more...

I was one of the lucky few to be able to get hold of a Ryzen 5900X on release day. I installed the processor into my motherboard. Did a clean Windows 10 Pro installation including the latest chipset drivers from AMD.com and ran a couple of tests. When I run Cinebench R20, within a few...

I am in the process of getting a new build together with the release of the new ryzen CPU's and can see that the motherboards need a bios update before being usable with the new ryzen 5000 series. I have gotten a the Asus TUF-Gaming plus x570 motherboard (Not the Wi-Fi one) and will need to...
