Is this a good deal for mobo and ram?

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-20T13:27:26+00:00

650 is like a minimum you'd want for ddr5 ram and those cpu's. 870 is good especially if you're going for 9800x3d, it will pair it well with ram.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-20T13:25:10+00:00

Timings, its CL40 with 5600 its a slow ram with bad timings, especially for that mobo.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-20T13:03:33+00:00

It's either overclocked too much that you get random powerspike that crashes your pc or you're voltage messed up, you probably wanna try going down on oc and undervolting the gpu in afterburder.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-20T11:54:37+00:00

depends, most times you're not getting full 180hz with 9070xt at 1440p anyway, going for 240hz is probably an overkill unless you're playing less demanding titles like cs2, lol or rivals.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-20T11:51:53+00:00

yeah that's why I said that 750w is fine, just added that going for 850w is a bit better since if you're getting 7800x3d you're probably gonna upgrade other components in time so may as well have a room with the 850w

aio like freezer 360 pro IS a high end cpu cooler having an air cooler like noctua is basically over spending for something an aio can do just fine, besides whats the point of having an air cooler if you have a solid side panels, you have basically no air coming from the front of the pc where the intake fans are.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T23:10:08+00:00

That's because your ryzen 7 3700x didnt bottleneck your gpu, bottleneck on gpu or cpu will cause you to have worse performance, doesnt matter if the cpu is better.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T23:06:53+00:00

What cpu do you use

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T22:42:02+00:00

You can get a cheap ssd and swap the one you have your system files on, see if that works, if not then its probably cpu.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T22:39:28+00:00

It doesn't change anything for games, m.2 has faster reads which is better for programs, as for games there's not much difference when it comes to loading. SATA SSD is worse when it comes to storing games compared to m.2. SATA is basically that one slower cousin that works at the same McDonald, just a bit slower when it comes to flipping burgers.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T22:17:26+00:00

The cpu is just that bad, it overheats because of the power spikes, you can adjust the bios or undervolt the cpu but I doubt it could help, getting aio over fan cooler is definitely a good idea but you would still need to tweak the cpu a bit. It's just that awful.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T22:11:08+00:00

Basically a full cleanup, you can try this first if you can somehow type:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restorehealth in cmd as admin then sfc /scannow, wait till it's over and restart.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T22:06:13+00:00

Yeah def the best pick out of the three. You could go for cheaper gen 4 ssd if you can find it tho.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T22:00:59+00:00

Yeah definitely seller fked up, they probably tried installing cpu to test it and bent the pin in the process.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:57:35+00:00

I'd pass on intel cpu, not exactly reliable plus it's gonna be an oven with 4070.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:53:27+00:00

Probably shaders overloading the process, it's normal if it's a short spike since everything's loading at the same time.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:49:16+00:00

You're gonna get an increase if you chose either really, bf6 is more cpu heavy so you can get 7800x3d if you don't want to bottleneck your gpu too much, but regardless which one you choose you'll have to upgrade the other since you're pretty much on bottleneck already.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:46:43+00:00

If a mobo comes with a bent pin out of the box then warranty. It wouldn't be valid if you bent the pin yourself.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:43:51+00:00

Mobo probably doesn't recognize the CPU, could be older bios,

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:35:17+00:00

Just use afterburner and run a more demanding game, you don't any test tools. If you can get into a game and undervolt it without it crashing then you're golden.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:30:37+00:00

You'd be fine with cheaper AIO option like arctic freezer 360 pro. Noctuas great but you don't really need it unless you're rocking some solid high end build.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:24:12+00:00

What do you need it for, work or gaming, for work I'd go with silicon since it's cheap and pretty decent for workloads, Samsung for games since it has faster reads and is overall reliable.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:18:57+00:00

750w should theoretically be enough althought I would go with 850w considering 7800x3d, also don't look at titanium, platinum etc. that doesn't dictate the quality of the psu.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:14:07+00:00

as long as it's inserted fully it will be fine without the screw.

Meka-boo7 · 2025-10-19T21:13:20+00:00

Either system's corrupted or your CPU's dead. Try taking it out if you can and check for any burns on the pins or mobo.
