So basically my motherboard has finally **** the bed, detecting a new CPU everytime I turn on the computer, forces me to manually boot windows, detects 5 keyboards, 2 mice and 1 hub AND says my CPU is taking 2.7W

It's time to move on, anyone got any suggestions for a new am5 slot motherboard and a cpu to go with it, something that I'll see a good frame jump with.

Im currently using a 5600 and asus b350-plus. GPU I have is 4070s, PSU is 750w.
 
Do you have a budget?

What make\model monitor will you be using with it?

What are you going to be the system for? gaming? video editing?
 
Budget, mid range really, 500 - 600 is more than Id like to pay but realistically probably the price I'm looking at unless I can get both at a more reasonable price,

Monitor I've currently got 1 acer 1080p monitor 60hz, 1 dell 1440p monitor 60z and 1 1440p LG Ultragear ips 180hz.
Mainly just for gaming

If you want PCI-E 5.0 and USB 4:

My basket at OcUK:

Total: £573.95 (includes delivery: £7.99)​

If you don't care:

My basket at OcUK:

Total: £632.96 (includes delivery: £0.00)​

The 7800X3D is reaching a price point that is getting hard to recommend, but it is still a superior gaming CPU than e.g. a 7900X or 9700X.

My brother asking for advice! You should have done that before you came to the conclusion that the best way to deal with your case airflow issue was to create a hole with multiple screwdriver punctures and yanking at it with some pliers before until it came off :cry:
