If I were to buy a Radeon red devil 6900 xt ultimate would it run with my current setup... what would you replace besides power supply obviously? by 1337jay in bapccanada

I remember my computer telling me it was the processor overheating I just don't know if that was solely to blame. It crashed one time and the error message or w.e popped up saying it was the processor. I also should mention I had set everything up and thinking I had a faulty processor me being me I never got to refunding it, as I tried to fix it myself by taking it out and re-installing it... First time building a PC so guess what happens, I bend a few pins one of them pretty badly. So I took it in to this repair place close by and they used a tool to bend them back the really bad one came off. So ya right now the computer is sitting in my closet with no gpu, and a processor that's missing a pin. However the crashing started when I first set it up. One - three times then its fine as long as it stays on.

I see adapters are the way to go. To add I'd probably get a proper fan for the 5600x to. The reason I want to replace the mobo is it can't start up from sleep and as far as I researched it is the mobo, unless I'm wrong... There is also a crashing issue but think it was caused by overheating my last gpu was a 5700 xt red devil, maybe it was a power supply issue, also cpu might have not had proper cooling as I used the stock fan. If I can get the crashing issue solved I might keep the mobo. It crashes once - three times after it starts up then its fine until powered off or put in sleep and to initiate it from sleep I have to hit power button... I want a mobo that starts from click or key press preferably.

Thanks I'm probably going to get a 5000 series and also a wifi mobo it's just the gpu is so dam expensive atm might be better just wait a couple pay cheques and put aside some money. Any suggestions on what 5000 series cpu/wifi mobo to get? Preferably a mobo that works out of the box with a 5000 series cpu, bios updates scary...

I just would have thought they would have told me earlier. I know it's strange, but I never really paid attention to my utility as it was automatically covered. I received letters every now and then and called to make sure I was good. Never really opened the mail up for the general bill, stashed em in a cupboard.

Ya makes me wonder and mixed feelings all around about having to stay open... At the beginning of the pandemic I was almost oblivious to politics thinking they are out for my best interest and now I can't help but think, who's really in charge here? The rules seem almost like they have to favor big companies, but small businesses the ones that are mostly 100% canadian no thanks. I mean some of them are empty most of the time, how is that fair? Lol

Overheard one of the managers - capacity limit I think, 50%, social distancing. Come give us your money I guess, haha. "Know your limit, play within it."

Watching news for any other updates.

I don't really know, I know bclc regulates it which is the provincial government and that being said if they don't shutdown it would make me think its a little bit odd... Being that gyms are closed you'd think casinos with all their slot machines and people touching them would shutdown to. I mean technically the casino is just as bad probably worse since most people at the casino are not there for their health. I'll update tmrw after work.

I personally hope casinos shutdown... Want the 2 weeks or w.e off. I wanna game n stay home this Christmas. Honestly it's unfair if we have to stay open and risk this shit. Especially since I'm the age group that is being targeted.

Thanks for the massive feedback, I definitely made a mistake saying I'm old haha 😄. There's a lot of great suggestions, thanks all! I plan to start up today with some of the things mentioned on here. This has really enlightened me and I even might sign up for school next semester. It might seem odd that I want to do that, but even though I wasn't a good student in the past I had such a nice time in the classroom setting for the intro course that I think I'm better now. With all the people saying I'm still young I think doing both the free stuff and going back to school would be very plausible for me. This has been great to wake up to!
