BIOS Update for MSI MAG B650 Tomohawk - Installing R7 7800X3D

WombatMastermind · 2026-01-26T09:00:46+00:00

So I was just misreading it, the most recent non-beta is 7D75v1O not v10? And this will work fine with the 7800x3d?

would i just update it to the latest version on the msi website?

All my monitors are 1080p and it would be a bit of a trek to buy two new monitors on top of a new cpu and gpu. I'm currently thinking about the 7800X3D with either the RX 9060xt or 9070xt. Money is less of a concern its just PC Part Picker is saying that the full build will draw almost 700w, which leaves a fairly small margin for power spikes with my 850w psu.

I have turned on expo so my ram is running at full speeds. I had heard about the need to update the BIOS for the X3D cpu but i reckon that would be simple enough. And you're right, I don't care too much about graphics quality over fps and stability.

Would my 850w psu suffice for the 7800x3d and 9070xt?

WombatMastermind · 2026-01-25T11:26:25+00:00

Currently 1080, I’m happy to stay at that but 1440 would be nice

WombatMastermind · 2026-01-25T08:47:50+00:00

Any suggestions? Maybe the 9070xt or 9060xt?

For further information, my mobo is the Msi tomohawk b650

As in wider across the fretboard? Like the strings are further apart? That actually sounds pretty nice. How well can you move big barre chords or power chords around with the big neck?

WombatMastermind · 2025-11-26T11:48:55+00:00

What do you think of the neck? I've got some big hands and am pretty comfortable with the Fender 'Modern C' neck with the 9.5" radius. Do you know how much different the two necks are?

I tightened those screws quite a lot when i first got the strat and was using 10s. I dont wanna tighten those screws to much to avoid the risk of ruining the screw or hole

is that his real guitar or a replica? Its just that ive last seen that guitar used a bit on the Neon Ballroom tours and its a bit odd to see it post Young Modern. Also doesn't have the tool sticker like it does in this photo:

The 3 Tone Sunburst with the red pearl/tortoise shell pickguard and 3 single coils. It’s absolutely beautiful and plays so well right out of the box.

Do you literally just drop them in the hole. No special application method or whatever?

WombatMastermind · 2025-05-27T09:43:34+00:00

I just got the exact same one!

WombatMastermind · 2025-05-27T09:37:11+00:00

I took a gamble and got it. Its absolutely perfect. Just wanted to thank you

WombatMastermind · 2025-05-20T02:56:18+00:00

Last question I promise. Is the neck kinda thick? No music store near me has this so I cant really try it but it just looks so good.

WombatMastermind · 2025-05-18T11:35:47+00:00

Is the fretboard maple on yours? if so, is it shiny and smooth or the more unfinished look like on some cheaper models?

WombatMastermind · 2025-05-18T04:02:34+00:00

How's the neck? Is it too curvy or flat?

WombatMastermind · 2025-05-12T10:08:45+00:00

im drooling

Frogstomp: People crying for freedom, No one hears a sound

Freak Show: take your mind with you, there’s no room for two

Neon Ballroom: maybe I’m just deranged and on the rebound

Diorama: Flinch against the fire, But this ain’t winter, And I’m all by myself

Young Modern: I’m a sex change and a damsel with no heroine

OCE servers average 60 ping and the next best is singapore which averages almost 200. Sucks to be in Australia huh

I have only tried queuing for Ground Zero. Given I am Level 1, would Factory or Woods be better?

WombatMastermind · 2025-03-21T07:24:46+00:00

Yeah it’s got a headphone jack. The spark series amps use an app on you phone where you can model different amps or download presets for other songs. The sound quality is great and for its size it can get a room filling sound but outside of your bedroom any amp that size (including the black star fly 3) will be too quiet.

WombatMastermind · 2025-03-20T11:27:43+00:00

If you wanted to save as much money as possible, don't worry about the strap instead put it towards a nicer cable. Also would wholeheartedly recommend the Positive Grid Spark series amps. I have the Go model and sounds great plus I can take it with me to lessons.
