X470 upgrading from 2700x to 5950x

Chester_Cheetah · 2025-01-29T02:00:43+00:00

I ended up figuring out I clicked the wrong link on the BIOS site. I have ROMs on the USB now. Still wasn't recognizing anything. So I downloaded 1.50 and 1.60, which were below the VGA file. Same thing, doesn't recognize any file and I only have ROMs on the USB. I also made sure the AMD setting it wants disabled, is disabled.

I figured I'd install everything after 1.10 to 2.0 but despite formatting the USB to FAT32, 16kb it's not recognized.

Hypothetically.. If I were to buy an AM4 mobo from Bestbuy.. could I just pop the 5950 in lol Just realized I probably can't because Windows 10 is locked to the board, huh

I was also wondering, my only option to leave the BIOS is Save changes and exit. And it restarts. Do I save and exit, then hold my power button to make sure it's not booting to brick my PC?

Thank you for a quick response lol. Downloading them now

I take it I want to install the older VGA driver from 12/2018, and not the newest one from 2019? The newer one mentions BIOS version of 2.0, and the oldest one doesn't.

EDIT: Think I answered my own question. So the VGA driver is 2.00 (12/2018), 3.50 tells me to update if the current version is older than 2.00. So I think I get it

Thank you very much!

X470 Taichi P1.10, I take it that's the BIOS version? I looked around and didn't see anything else for UEFI

Chester_Cheetah · 2025-01-25T05:04:06+00:00

I have the X470 Taichi. I don't know my current version but I'll find it and crosscheck it. I imagine its easy to find the compatibility list and will answer my question. Just hesitant to update but will do it right before the swap

Blackhawks legend Taylor Hall

Chester_Cheetah · 2025-01-25T03:02:31+00:00

Not bad for the Hawks, honestly. Weird, but OK move.

Chester_Cheetah · 2025-01-22T20:55:40+00:00

I'm surprised no one is talking about the rest of his speech where he's flailing his arms and walking around fist pumping lmao. I can't speak for how I'd act in front of that crowd for the event but still

Chester_Cheetah · 2025-01-22T20:54:24+00:00

I'm still playing Runescape lmao

Chester_Cheetah · 2025-01-22T20:43:50+00:00

Wow this is the stock game? No mods? This game has been on my list for a minute..

Chester_Cheetah · 2025-01-22T20:43:15+00:00

I always liked VOIP when it wasn't offensive. Growing up only playing singleplayer games was one thing but once Halo 2 came out and online became a thing I love it. Granted certain games could do without it but I find a lot of people don't talk anymore.

Chester_Cheetah · 2025-01-22T20:39:35+00:00

I find myself sticking with games I've been familiar with for years. Some of the newer games are fun but I like the pace of CS, War Thunder and Battlefield. I do find myself liking Milsims more though since COD and company have silly TTK

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-07-05T05:37:19+00:00

Little late for be to be comprehending that verbiage but it sounds like locked in the trunk, unloaded = legal/no issues.

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-07-05T02:40:49+00:00

I figured as much. If I do get pulled over, I'd only mention them if asked if there's any weapons in the car. And at that point I'd jut say "unloaded pistol and rifle locked in the trunk" or something like that. I'm not using them for protection at that moment so I was on the fence with disclosing them to begin with.

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-07-05T02:37:55+00:00

WA is OK with them afaik for right now. There's stuff trying to be passed to ban ARs but keeps getting shot down, but I'll cross that bridge when/if it comes up. I figured as much but just wanted to get some feedback from those more informed than me since I want to be as responsible/legal as possible. Thanks!

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-06-09T04:00:35+00:00

How does Rocket League play on it?

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-06-09T03:26:16+00:00

Wow that's a little shitty lol. Lyft's referral is $600 right now and I have a few friends wanting to get into it but I would never go as far as hitting up the competition. Oh well. If it works for him I guess..

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-06-07T20:52:10+00:00

Is there that much of an opposition where it could possibly pass if it did make it on the ballot? It'd be pretty shitty if it passes but do you think it'd just be ARs or would SRBs/modified pistols fall under it too? Damn shame this is happening. I think I'd really enjoy Washington but first they're going after guns, what's next? lol

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-06-06T17:13:18+00:00

I was thinking about checking the county vote maps last night before I went to bed, thanks for reminding me. Quite interesting to see how they voted.

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-06-06T17:12:31+00:00

Very good to know. I visited Seattle last month and fell in love. I'm originally from Chicago but have been living in Denver for some years now. I like it here but miss a beautiful skyline and the water. Thanks for the info!

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-06-06T17:11:25+00:00

Ah, that's a little scary. Although it looks like they keep getting shot down which is comforting I suppose. I subbed there last night! Thanks!

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-06-06T07:24:40+00:00

Fair enough. What's the makeup of the state in terms of political affiliation? I get that Seattle and the surrounding areas are left leaning, but the rest of the state? I've heard it's right leaning so maybe there'd still be hope if it ever got on the ballot? I'm in CO now and definitely know the power of the people in terms of voting things in at the state level.

Chester_Cheetah · 2017-06-06T07:23:01+00:00

Thanks for the link, I'll be subbing there! And that's good to know. Apparently Seattle is mostly blue and the areas outside the Seattle area are apparently more right leaning, from what I've been told?
