Re: Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

If you have the manual for the motherboard or know the model number you can probably find out what those beeps are supposed to indicate and backtrack from there. I had a PC that was perfectly good...

Desperate times calling for truly desperate measures, gonna have to take my baby into Best Buy or something before I take a Louisville Slugger to it.

Re: Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

Yeah, I've swapped everything at this point. I have no idea what the issue is, never had an issue like this in a previous build. **** sucks [emoji20].

Would a messed up drive stop the BIOS screen from coming up?

Yeah, I’ve tried 2 different ones.

Got up this morning and it booted up like nothing was wrong, left it on while I went to class, came back and it was still good (with the backup motherboard and...

Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

It's possible, I have a USB to SATA cable so I can take it out and check it in my laptop, but I had this same issue with another drive.

Turned it on this morning, powered on for 3 seconds (woke...

Re: Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

Was playing Madden almost 2 months ago when my screen froze, I shut down my computer and it wouldn't turn back on. When I hit the power button, the machine acts like its booting and on for 20 seconds...

Re: Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

I've got pretty much my entire downsized build in my Amazon cart, just stuck between whether I want to take the AMD plunge with a 3700x or get a 9900kf while they're $420 from Wal-Mart.

Re: Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

This AMD launch is a mess. Waited all this time hoping to get one of their CPU's but they're still not ahead of the 9700k and there's all kinds of problems.

Part of me wants a 3700X and the other...

Re: Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

Looks like the solder didn't make any difference on the 9900k, so not only does it run hot, but it will actually be harder to delid.

AMD where you at?

Re: Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

The price in a vacuum isn't the worst, it's more the price vs the price of AMD processors plus the value. Benchmarks, that are being questioned, put the 9900k at 50% faster than the 2700x. I just...

I'm looking at the price on the 9900k like... An Amd build doesn't sound so bad right now.

Re: Official "I want to build a New PC!" Thread

Definitely agree. There are big enough companies making motherboards, but the PSU market isn't great, Corsair holding it down but capping out at 600W is a little rough, even though I've read that's...

Talked myself into a $200 case and the GPU won't even fit...:brickwall:

I really love that M1 case, but my 1080 Armor is the one part I can't replace. The Dan A4 and Loque Ghost are even smaller...
