@patkim Yea, have been ordering online for smaller stuff like RAM, SSD, etc. But for Mobo & PSU, prefer to get it from the shop itself. And this time more so, as I don't want to wait. Plus, online seems to be costing more, strangely so. And I am aware about how Lamington dealers work. I...

Lamington Road dealer PrimeABGB tells me the Asus Prime B450M-A II is outdated and asked me to go for GIGABYTE B450M DS3H V2. Not sure if they are intentionally pushing for the latter as they have it available and the latter is out of stock with them. I did some comparisons and Asus looks to...

I have read that AMD GPUs consume more power as compared to Nvidia's. Given I have a 550W, I have some reservations. But open for a counter opinion

I believe my existing 550W PSU will also be too tight for the 3060?

Whats the max GPU a B450 mobo can support, given my other specs will remain unchanged? Also, any suggestions which B450 to go for?

Hi Guys, reviving this thread for an update The issue kept coming up intermittently and my hardware guy diagnosed this as a GPU related issue. He recommends upgrading it and the Mobo, preferably both. Added a post in the PC Components section.

Hi, I am looking to upgrade my Motherboard and GPU. Existing ones are more than 6 years old and are giving me problems in booting up. My current config is: Ryzen 5 2400G Asus Prime B350M-A Corsair 2x8 GB 3200 MHz Zotac GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Corsair CX550 Antec GX200 1x1 TB WD Blue SN570 NVMe SSD...

UPDATE! I was finally able to boot up Windows today. Still, I am not completely sure I have resolved the root cause or even identified it correctly. Here's what happened: I removed the SSD, inserted the USB bootable drive In Bios, set the boot priority to USB. Windows installation wizard came...

Yes. It was working just fine. I got it last September. My SSD (from where Windows boots), is of type NVMe and not SATA. It is installed in the M.2 slot on the motherboard. This SSD is not showing in BIOS. See the second screenshot in my above post. It just says "N/A" All other storage are showing

Any suggestions guys? @Gollum @sudhir_3193 @Desmond @khalil1210

Cleaned the cabinet and also cleaned the ram sticks with iso propyl alcohol. Nothing really changed. Step 1 worked but the power off didn't happen. Tried step 2 and did not get any beeps nor did it restart. Cleaned the CMOS battery with iso propyl alcohol and retried. This time something...

Tried alternating the RAM slots with a single and both sticks. Still the same issue. no signal, a beep with restart on loop. Tried with unplugging all storage devices HDD and SDD. No beeps but no signal on the monitor either. Also, tried with no ram sticks and no storage devices plugged. Still...

Hi, I have the below config: Ryzen 5 2400G , Asus Prime B350M-A , Corsair 16gb 3200 MHz, Zotac 1050 Ti 4GB, Corsair CX550, Antec GX200 On boot-up the system beeps, the bios screen flashes, the message 'No display signal' shows and then it restarts and the whole sequence is repeated. It does...

Yes, I thought as much. Thanks for confirming. Will have to let go of the old stick then

Thanks. Will go with 2x8GB sticks of 3200 Mhz I understand that if I also use my existing 2666 MHz stick with the new ones, the new ones will slow down. what combination will be better? a) use three sticks that run on 2666, or b) use only the two new sticks at 3200 I am a moderate level gamer...
