I bought a B-Grade monitor, saved about 50 quid I think, it has a dead pixel in the middle of screen which is pretty annoying when general browsing etc however when gaming you can't even notice it, even when looking for it so I just kept the monitor. The box was also damaged when it arrived...

Just a quick and confusing update on this, I got my PC back from OCUK, they replaced Motherboard as being the suspected cause of the issue, they also replaced memory & CPU to air on the side of caution. All has been great for a week or so until again the issue restarted today only this time I...

Sysyem was sent back on Monday, I'll see if they change that when they return it. Guess that's going to affect performance etc?

Ah thanks for confirming. Overclockers are getting the system back next week to check it over, I'll let them mess with that if needed. Don't want to break any warrenty. Thanks for the advice though all, learning quite abit from these forums :)

https://ibb.co/k9sSB96 Does that help? Looks like a cable lopped then from gpu to psu.

Overclockers are arranging collection of my system so they can test it. As it's not until Monday I'm going to do a fresh install of windows over the weekend if I manage to get the display to work at any point, least that way I can rule out software issues. I've checked online and it seems like...

Now getting no display at all even after a reboot. Going from bad to worse. Will give overclockers a ring.

Amd application is now detecting an error. "the system has detected A link failure and cannot set the requested resolution and refresh rate. Your display might not support the requested resolution or there may be an issue with the cable connecting the display to your computer." - this error has...

From what I can see, single cable going from psu to gpu. Booted up for the first time today, same issue - no display. Powered down, switched off mains power to psu, went through startup process and boom, display showing. So it's still only the first time booting it up after its been left for a...

I'll take a look tonight at the BIOS and cabling inside and report back. Cheers :)

I'll check this tonight, I guess it would be best if they're separate? I'm not very techy when it comes to the components. A friend has also just suggested the BIOS may be defaulting to onboard graphics when booting, something else I'll need to check.

This is the build, I got OCUK to build it too. 1 x AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Six Core 4.2GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £188.99 1 x MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC (Socket AM4) DDR4 ATX Motherboard= £124.99 1 x Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black...

Hello guys, I have a rather irritating issue with my new desktop. Only started over the last 3 days. Whenever I switch on my desktop for the first time of the day I can't get any display to show on my monitor, its as if the cable isn't plugged in (no signal). Went through the standard checking...

Thanks @tamzzy I think I'm gonna go with your suggestion. Already had a quote for a build but seen that pre-build so thought I'd double check.

Hello guys, Can I have a real quick bit of advice? I'm going to place an order (hopefully tonight), I've come across a pre-build pretty close to what has already been suggested. Comparing to what @tamzzy has suggested, is the pre-build any better value...

Thanks! I'll double check with ocuk if they'll do that, assume they will. Otherwise, from what I've been looking at over the last few days it won't be much of an issue to do. Seems pretty simple. Thanks again.

Tamzzy, thank you for this! Looking through things this is pretty much exactly what I need and from the looks of it, I'll be getting a decent setup.

Anyone able to help suggest something?

Hello again, Now the launch is here. I'm looking to place an order ASAP. Per my original post, I'm not going to be a heavy gamer, just playing the titles mentioned. I can see some good deals on the AMD 2600 + B450, wondering if this could give me a decent setup or would it be worth getting...

I've seen a few other posts about the release next week so pricing will probably change next week too. Might get that little bit more for my money! :)
