I often buy OCUK B-Grade GPUs and they have ranged from a second-hand card in an anti-static bag to a still sealed card with a damaged box. As you have ordered a new model, it is likely to be a customer return or a damaged box.

3600 CL16 and 3200 CL14 are very similar in performance and both types of RAM you listed are Samsung B-die, so they should overclock the same, depending on what works with your CPU and motherboard. The 3600 is probably a better option to start, as it means the Ryzen Infinity Fabric clock (FClk)...

I have Team Group Dark Pro "8Pack Edition" 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-30900C18 3866MHz" in my PC, which is A2 Samsung B Die and I've downclocked it to 3733MHz at CL16, so the Ryzen 3700X Infinity Fabric is at 1866MHz. I want to buy another pair of 8GB sticks and I want to get some that will act as...

Replaced both my DisplayPort cables with high spec ones and the screen goes black on one and freezes on the other.

I just found out that turning my monitors off and back on again gets me the screen back. It's annoying, but it's a hell of a lot better than hard booting the PC.

I get the issue, but with 2 monitors it isn't just a black screen. It freezes both screens, one of which is blank, but the mouse cursor still moves and any keyboard inputs are processed. Some times the screens kick back into life after about a minute and Task Manager pops in to view along with...

Grame constantly crashes with my 5700XT, as well.

I haven't used a DD, but I did have a Thicc II. The XFX cards are OK, but the board components are the cheapest of all 5700 card manufacturers. They fixed the cooling on the newer versions, hence they are 'OK' and not 'bad'. Having said this, I had one of the bad cards and I got decent...

Sometimes, 8+8 vs 8+6 means the graphics card needs to draw less power over the PCIe bus. The MSI Gaming X 5700XT advertises that is why it is 8+8 instead of 8+6. PCIe: 75W 6 pin: 75W 8 pin: 150W

There's been a classic reddit rant recently, where someone posted a huge, technical description of why the 5700Xt was crap, only to be told that he had a B450 board and shouldn't have enabled PCIe 4.0, as it wasn't supported on the board and newer BIOSes no longer had this option. i.e. His rant...

The fan is blowing directly onto the PCB, so will cool the RAM, etc. The water cooler also means that there isn't a massive heatsink above the RAM, so the air around it is cooler and the airflow over the memory isn't restricted. The people that have this setup state that the memory temp gets up...

It has a separate fan than blows directly on to the PCB. If you stick a couple of heatsinks on, it should be cooled better than anything else.

Its worth noting that at £350 for the reference RX 5700XT (current OCUK deal price), you can get the the Corsair H55 for £55 and the NZXT Kraken G12 for £25 and have a watercooled RX 5700XT for about £430.

A large element of the current pricing is sellers increasing the price due to limited supply or increasing demand, otherwise why would the Strix have gone up £20 and the Red Devil up £30 since Gibbos post! /Edit the Red Devil is now £469.99 on OcUK, yet it is less in Euro elsewhere (Eur465 =...

I'd love to hear your views on NVidia's prices.

These are obviously great prices for the UK, but when you can get a Red Devil for £410 in Germany, I feel that we are being ripped off as a country.

I flashed my Aorus Elite from F4j to F4 and it would boot, but hang at the Windows UEFI screen with the dots going round in a circle. I reflashed to F3, as I couldn't find F4j, and it worked fine. I tried F4 a second time, but had the same problem, so I'm back on F3. I haven't tried resetting...

In that case, Yes, I've tried increasing SOC. In fact, I've just about every possible thing possible to get the ***** RAM to 3200

Which setting is IMC voltage?

I have the same issue as the OP on a B350-F with a R7 1700 @ 3.8, but with G.Skill Trident Z RGB 2 x 8GB 3200 CL14 RAM, which crashes over 3000 in certain games, although I can run Prime95 using all RAM at 3200. I have been blaming the RAM and was looking to replace it, but if the root cause is...
