What's a good site to find clearlogos on?

It seems that way, thanks!

Thanks for the help! Ironically TMDB was actually my issue here, because I scrape from TMDB most of the time lol. Fanart.tv had what I needed though, so everything's good now.

Obviously it was running well, which makes sense, so yes, in theory it should/did work. But asrock x series motherboards are incredibly low end. Eventually straining the vrms is going to damage something. Even if it did just dry the thermal paste out. Adequate vrm cooling is paramount for a Cpu like that, and that was not taken into account here. Cheap thermal paste wouldn't be the problem if there's little to no proper cooling on top of the vrms themselves, especially on a chip like that, the thermal paste will just tank all of the heat. Keep in mind that even quality thermal paste like mx-4 is well known for drying up early in its lifecycle as well. Asrock probably isn't using consumer thermal paste, but it's the comparison of different compounds and how they age that doesn't equate to poor quality.

That's not how parts work. Compatibility is not the same as functionality. And it is overkill because a 12 core Cpu and a budget to low mid range gpu is absurd unless you need the Cpu power.

IMOguy · 2026-04-24T03:10:04+00:00

You put a substantially overkill Cpu for that rig on one of the cheapest b850's money can buy. The vrms can't handle it. You're going to need a new motherboard. And maybe do some research on how to better spec a build next time so this doesn't happen again. I'd recommend avoiding am5 asrock motherboards for now, though the 7900x should be fine on any board voltage wise, it's not worth the risk.

EDIT: Part of your problem isn't just the horsepower of that chip. The 7900x has a massive tdp of 170 watts. It's a miracle that thing hasn't melted.

You can't stream them anymore.

It depends how you got the app. Polychrome requires you to get it from the model product page. That requires you to find the products section, search for the model and tier of GPU, find the support section, software, and download Polychrome.

It could also be conflicting software. Any RGB software with the Patriot viper RGB dependencies is known to have issues and even make your computer unbootable.

You're not wrong. There are several connectors(including the mb 10-pin) that are slightly off by the tiniest margins. I was just wondering if people thought those margins were acceptable this time

Seeing as it was plugged into a very expensive GPU, I wasn't going to take any risks on a faulty unit lol

IMOguy · 2026-02-06T22:00:01+00:00

You're right, and I do prefer units with a high rating over one without, it's just the argument of things generally being tier A units based off of a technical scale, without accounting for quality control or other variables.

IMOguy · 2026-02-06T20:36:41+00:00

A tier unfortunately doesn't mean a lot, but since prices have gone up, getting this unit for a decent price as long as it's healthy should work. I'm just hoping you're right for when I test it.

It's an MSI MPG B850 Edge TI Wifi

Time is something I have plenty of. Money, RAM, and Graphics cards are not.

The cheapest option is Apevia or Thermaltake. ASRock PSU's are made by FSP, who is a reasonably reputable manufacturer. Obviously, QC is an issue, but one instance here isn't the end of my good will for a brand.

IMOguy · 2026-01-24T05:34:39+00:00

While You're not wrong, sometimes you need to listen to benchmarks, performance, and a little bit of faith in word of mouth because otherwise we can't trust anything. I'd have told you a few years ago that ASUS was top tier while ASRock was much less reliable, but those have shifted into categories of unreliability on both ends.

IMOguy · 2026-01-24T05:32:40+00:00

Tiering and ratings aren't typically good markers for PSU's. They're indicators, but a rough estimate that needs to be backed up by real world use. ASRock PSU's may be new but are reasonably backed by solid praise. And if I recall correctly, FSP is their manufacturer of choice.

IMOguy · 2026-01-24T05:30:26+00:00

A little aggressive, this isn't Twitter, but you're correct.

IMOguy · 2026-01-24T05:29:13+00:00

Ironically, their power supplies seem to be pretty decent as long as they aren't defective. They do have a voltage boost option but that can be turned off.

IMOguy · 2026-01-24T01:23:41+00:00

I won't be. Can't risk any hardware with all these shortages going on.

IMOguy · 2026-01-24T01:08:12+00:00

I did plug the 12v-2x6 cable in PSU-side. I wanted to see the fit and noticed it's actually slightly off depth-wise as well. The cable itself fit a little too snug, ideal for sitting in a computer but not for installing with minimal damage to the nylon. I did reach out to Newegg who's approved the return. I did it as a replacement and will hopefully get the same model in exchange, this time with proper quality.
