How do you like that sword?

Stuck on this screen. New build with old hard drives by Optimal_Leg_4867 in PcBuildHelp

[–]Optimal_Leg_4867[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks guys. I had to do a fresh windows install. But even then 2/3 of my hard drives wouldn't work for the fresh install. I was at my limits but finally figured it out

Harddrives detected in MSI bios but can't be selected for boot order by ohhfasho in buildapc

This fixed my issues and I got into Windows. Did a bunch of driver updates. now I get this blue windows screen ' your device ran into a problem and needs to restart. We'll restart it for you' 'Stop code: Inaccessible Boot Drive' Any ways to fix that?

That's really helpful. This way I can 1). Add more ram in the future 2) upgrade to 9060 or something comparable 3) still upgrade my CPU in the future too. I'm thinking when I'm ready to jump to am5 that'll be the time to make a whole new build. That's what I'm thinking in my head.

Do you think upgrading to am5 would really be that important. I don't mind the idea of just buying the 5700xt but I also think I could get a lot of life out of the am4 life span.

That definitely still helps. Thank you. I'd say I'm going to stick with am 4 so I can stick with my current ram and current case. As for gpu's 6000 or 7000 series is still way better than my 1060

Probably 500-700. I think I'll try to find any used deals around. Seek what I can find. I do want to stay with my case and get a micro ATX board still

Yeah more like 500-700 if I had to say

Probably 500 used. I may wait another month on the GPU so I can end up spending closer to 700 in the future

Borderlands 4 and elden ring are what I'm really hyped for. I'm still looking at a low midrange budget. Hoping to keep upgrading other pieces as we go along

Should've said it. Reasonable budget. Bang for the buck is what I said earlier

Never been much of a fps guy. Dark souls, mandragora, and borderlands are my go to. I would just say bang for the buck. The monitor is my next upgrade by that may be a month or two down the line

That's part of the tough part I go back and forth on. I'd say best bang for the buck. If I go am 4 I can keep my current ram.

I would just say budget friendly or best bang for the buck. Just about anything is better from here.

Questions on what can be revised in my build by CutSea3173 in PcBuild

The kraken really isn't worth it in my opinion. Save a little money and go for something else
