Here is CinebenchR23 scores for this rig. I have no idea if that is normal or not. This is offset voltages of -0.052v Vcore and -0.030v Vsoc. Ran for 30m after under volting. Max temps 62c multi core and 48c single core.

Update. Got the parts. Built it out on the bench with HDMI. Flashed the 980 with the NV tool. It basically left the Gigabyte BIOS unmolested as I hoped it would. The monitor was also left in a bugged state after all of this. DP still would not work until I power cycled it and blew down the caps...

Parts came in on Wednesday. I got up Thursday morning and started building. I just about have it squared away now. The 5600X is an absolute animal. The Corsair Memory works at XMP 3600 with absolutely zero issue so far. Though I did quickly bump the Vmem to 1.35 and left clock at 2133 for the...

One of the fans has a bad bearing. You can probably find the replacement fans on Ali-Express for pretty cheap. It's not very hard to change them out. I've had to do this on my 980GTX and several of my friends' video cards. These fans weren't designed to last forever and because of all the...

Long story short, after many years of exceptional service. My sig rig is dead. There is a long boring post on the Mobo section of the forums about it. (RIP Z97. You will be missed.) I have a bunch of new parts coming in on Wednesday. I already tried to upgrade with a Gigabyte B550 UD and a...

1. I have a Ryzen 5600x in hand. I think the problem was in the board I sent back and not the CPU. However, since it was trying to boot to the video cards last time. (The monitor would initialize and then go back to sleep.) I believe that the CPU is probably fine. 2. Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite...

I swear to goodness, trying to find compatible memory is making me crazy. This is the board I'm looking at. https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-b550-aorus-elite-ax-v2/p/N82E16813145248?Item=N82E16813145248 I have gone through the listings of what Newegg has and I have specifically ticked the box...

Correct. I installed the new CPU in the new board along with the memory from the bazooka board and my old GTX980. The monitor came out of sleep like it was going to post but just went right back to sleep. I tried a single stick of memory. Same thing. I tried another brand of ddr4, I tried a...

Well, I have updates. The Gigabyte board will not post no matter what I try. It turns on, the monitor light turns blue like it is going to come on and then turns right back to amber. I thought it might be the BIOS so I tore the entire system down again and ran the q-flash plus procedure with the...

Well, I ordered the Gigabyte B550 UD board, and a Ryzen 5 5600X to go in it. Hopefully this memory will work in it until I can order a 32gb 3200 dominator kit or something. I need to check the compatability list on Gigabyte's website. As it turns out, I flashed the wrong BIOS to this Bazooka...

The very first thing I did when I got the machine running was check the BIOS compatibility list on MSI's website refrencing this CPU. It did of course instruct me not to update the BIOS past a certain version. It instructed me to use version 1.l0. So I updated the BIOS to that. I haven't seen...

I recently had a bad lightening strike that took out my old intel system. I went hobo mode and grabbed a used CyberPower prebuilt ryzen system from someone who said they never got it to work right. Suprise, it doesn't work right. The Bios battery socket is apparently jacked because I have...

It's a long shot, but I think you might be running into a power supply problem. You can see from my sig that I have the same supply and I have recently learned that it is less than stellar. I will be looking to replace it in the near future. I have not had any problems yet but I am running an I5...

I think at this point it's pretty clear that you don't see an advantage because you don't know shit about space flight, how rockets work, payload fractions, etc. It's all about Delta-V. That means change in velocity. See, rocket scientists measure fuel in dV. AKA how much velocity change they...

LOL. Firstly, Blue origin is not going anywhere near as far down range or as fast. The Falcon rocket booster actually has to turn around and go back the other way if it wants to land back at the launch site. It's not some fancy elevator like the blue origin. The barge landing means they can use...
