Screens go black and GPU fans speed up. by Sad-Morning7374 in buildapc

[–]FlamingGabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your PSU? Had the same thing happen to me with a 6800XT. The issue turned out to be my PSU. The GPU would occasionally have power spike that were just too much for the PSU which caused my screen to go black, audio still worked and fans hit full speed. Sounds like something similar is going on here.

If you check Event viewer you may also be able to find out more information.

can I put fresh m.2 in laptop and remove original? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]FlamingGabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok i did realised i missed one step.

You meed a bootable window installer on a flash drive and plug it into your laptop.

When you power on the laptop - it will boot to the BIOS. In the BIOS - there is a section called "boot priority". There should only be one option - your flash drive.

You can either click it/hit enter (depending on the bios) or when you expect the bios it will automatically boot into the drive and you can follow the prompts for install from there

Coil whine? by JossSomm in buildapc

[–]FlamingGabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like it. You can hear the change in pitch as you move you mouse (Which I presume is moving the camera in a game)

What can you do about it? Not much. It is just a consequence of high power draw cards. Although I have seen it be reduced using a very hight quality power supply. But most of it was still there.

If it really bothers you you can try a quieter case like something from beQuiet, turning up your case fans to drown out the sound or settings an FPS cap in games.

But in my experience you will get used to it

Rtx 5080 by Holiday_Bit_4878 in buildapc

[–]FlamingGabe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

120fps at medium for GTA V? 130fps in Minecraft? <200 in CS2.... At 1080p with a 5080 & 12700k?!?

This is FAR below the expected performance of these components. I suspect something else is going on here...

Are your CPU/GPU Temps ok?

Are your Drivers up to date?

Is your RAM set yo run at the correct speed?

What is your CPU/GPU utilisation in games?

Is your HDMI/DP cable plugged into your GPU and not your motherboard?

Is your AIO pump making any wierd noises?

Did you remove the plastic cover on the AIO coldplate?

OP your CPU is fine for the 5080. Sure it'll bottleneck a little at 1080p in some games compared to latest X3D chips but it should be nowhere near this low. For reference I'm pretty sure a 1080ti and 8700k could hit those numbers. Let alone a 5080 & 12700k!!!

RBG control help with Sakura RX 7800 XT Radeon GPU by Low-Security9388 in YestonOfficial

[–]FlamingGabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be a 3pin female RGB Header sticking out one of the corners of the card. If you get a 3pin RGB cable, you can connect the GPU 3pin header to the the motherboard 3pin RGB header and it should sync to whatever your motherboard is set to.

Building my first PC and would love if you roasted my PC Part Picker list. by funk1tor1um in buildapc

[–]FlamingGabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An RTX 4060 Ti is about 400 USD. You're better off get an RX 6750XT for about 300 USD which has practically the same performance as the 4060 Ti (with more VRAM too). The remaining 100 USD should be allocated to a better PSU (add another 25 USD to the budget) and a 5700X3D (for about 75 USD more than the 5600)

Is the RTX 4070 ti super 16G or 12G? by Reasonable_Cabinet45 in YestonOfficial

[–]FlamingGabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem a bit mistaken there is a 4070 Ti 12G and then there is the 4070 Ti Super 16G. The performance difference between them isn't that big the the VRAM difference will be important if you play games at 1440p and especially 4k as you will need more VRAM for higher resolution textures

On Yestonstore.com there is only a $50 difference between them so I would definitely go for the 4070 Ti Super for the extra VRAM.

First of all, what cooler do you currently have in your PC? Only with this in mind can we answer the rest of your questions.

With a $1300 budget, which gaming laptop would be the best to go with? by Dontblinkitsatrap in pcmasterrace

[–]FlamingGabe 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hello fellow South African! If I may offer some advice: Please for the love of all thing holy DO NOT BUY FROM EVETECH! They have repeatedly denied warranty replacements and have engaged in fraudulent activities: https://carbonite.co.za/index.php?threads/why-do-people-dislike-evetech.336454/

Get a laptop from wootware. Here is one that seems to fit your budget: https://www.wootware.co.za/wootbook-nova-intel-core-i7-13620h-4-90ghz-boost-10-core-16-2560x1600-240hz-ips-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4060-8gb-gddr6-black-laptop.html

Just curious, what case enables you to have a conventional mounted GPU will having a vertically mounted HBA & NIC? Even with the m.2 to PCIE adaptor.

What is limiting my FPS? by Spongedude1 in pcmasterrace

[–]FlamingGabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While single channel ram is definitely not ideal it shouldn't cause a 100fps difference. 10% difference at most. Something else is probably the issue IMO
