If manufacturers found a way to enable XMP/EXPO settings before their motherboards ended up in gaming PCs, thousands of users would be left with bricked systems. The tricky thing with XMP/EXPO is that it isn't super seamless. You can never guarantee that a particular PC will boot with a...
B550 Has a PCIe 4.0 GPU Slot:B550 motherboards also have a full-length PCIe 4.0 x16 slot to take full advantage of PCIe 4.0 compatible graphics cards like the Radeon RX 5700 XT (but keep in mindPCIe 4.0 doesn't matter for GPUs). B450 boards only have PCIe 3.0 x16 slots, meaning tha...
If not, then either the GPU or the slot on the motherboard is defective. How long have you had this GPU? If you have a different GPU, test the connection. What other hardware do you have installed on the motherboard? Edit: Is the GPU directly in the PCIe slot or are you using a...
One may read the above, and assume that AMD is clearly better: but there is a catch. Sometimes what one can theoretically add to a platform and what one can physically add are different. Not all motherboards support 16 or 24 DIMMs per CPU. Some, even support less. An example is theA...
Vertical GPU kit (optional) Thermaltake Make sure your case is compatible Before you vertically mount your graphics card, it's important to consider whether you can do it all. Although most of thebest graphics cardscan be vertically mounted, and most motherboards will work just fine with a ris...
Below we dig into why AMD’s Ryzen chips are so expensive and the technical details of why the AM5 motherboards they require are also prohibitively expensive. We’ll also cover why there probably isn’t much AMD can or wants to do to address those issues. Skyrocketing Chip Costs AMD Ry...
If it passes again, redo the tests but with two sticks and be sure memory placement is at the reccomended slots for dual channel as stated on your motherboards manual. Would recommend you add using aida64 for full system stability tests. I've had new builds that I...
NO GOAL TOLD at all, (DREAMS OF GPU AND GAMING???) what do you see wrong now, state this clearly, please. the #1 most common questions on any SFF PC are.: 1: does it have a real X16 slot and not wired less? ( I see one 8300SFF for sale ...
Why Do X570 Motherboards Have Fans? Since X570 motherboards have more PCIe 4.0 lanes (from both the processor and the chipset; B550 only has PCIe 4.0 via the processor), the chipset consumes more power than B550 and therefore has the potential to generate a bit more heat. That's why ...
A computer driver is just as important as the operating system running on it. Without the drivers, the different components of the computer would not be able
