Core clock is the base speed of the chip. Boost Clock is the Nivida branding, and it references the general gaming speed you should see, usually quite a bit higher than the core clock. Game clock is AMD's version. Both technologies do the same...

I tried booting into my spare drive with an installation of Mint on it last week, I was able to update everything, download steam and play helldivers 2 with a reasonable frame rate. I did have some minor texture issues with the game but nothing...

AFAIK those backplates are aluminum. I know the one on my Gigabyte 7900XTX is and the MSI 4090 I had for a bit had a metal one too.

You want Memory Context Restore and Power Down enabled. PD is in the advanced memory timings menu at the bottom. If you're under 30 seconds or so, I would call it a win. My ASRock B650 was like 4 seconds to desktop, my current Gigabyte takes...

Its a little stiff, you could also just run the GPU in some games for a while with the side of the case off, that'll heat it up too. The nice thing is once its trained into position it stays there nicely.

I had that same Corsair cable for my RM1000x, don't be afraid of it just bend the crap out of it. Those molded non-sleeved cable ends are very tough (unlike the Nvidia supplied adapter). And yes, the cable is good for 300x2 for the full 600...

Yeah I think that was an X370 board. Anyways, I follow the instructions now.

Understandable. It gets under my skin if I can't fix it so I tend to keep messing with it lol Last year when I had a messed up machine it took me 4-5 months to figure it out. After the second week I just built another cheap rig to use in the...

Yeah there are some, I had one a few months ago that had like 22 updates and you could only go to like F13 then F17 then F22 or whatever it was. It said it in yellow text above the download. I've only ignored that text once and bricked a board...

With Gigabyte you also have to be aware of the version ladder, sometimes you can't just jump to the latest one.

Are you sure you're not actually in windows with no display? The fans should only shut down after the driver is loaded. I would really suggest getting your trusty #2 phillips out and removing the card so you can plug the monitor into your onboard...

Sorry to hear that. Sometimes these things happen, I went through it last year with a 7950X3D build that took months to get working right.

I did say to read the instructions carefully~ Pull the video card out, use onboard graphics and one stick of RAM. Pull all the drives out. Keep it simple until its stable.

Bro you have Q-flash on the I/O panel. use it. Follow the instructions carefully though!

The only important thing I need to know: CAN I HAVE A DIRE WOLF. I need a Daishi in my life again.

Intel is the only one left out here lol Drivers crash, it happens. My own 7900XTX had the driver crash 3-4 times this week just watching a youtube video but it games just fine so I haven't bothered to investigate that much

Nice work. I've only ever used my CH341 for reprogramming motherboard BIOS chips, didn't realize the GPUs can be done the same way externally.

Specialized in a subject, yes. But still able to string together a coherent sentence without help from a fucking AI. Isn't that the hallmark of an educated person throughout the ages? Being literate and able to communicate effectively is the...

I keep hearing ads for grammarly(?) talking about how it can write the papers for you and do your citations so you never have to learn how. Like, I thought that was the point of going to school?

Can always try the good old fashioned CPU reseat too, I don't know if you've done that yet.
