    Solved 4080 Super PSU Connection

    Hi all, A bit of a noob question here: I've just received my my new 4080 Super (MSI Ventus X3 OC) today, and have only now realised it requires three connections from the PSU, whilst my current 3070 Ti only requires two, per the picture below: How do I go about actually go about getting the...

    RAM XMP Profiles Not As Advertised

    Today I installed my new Kingston FURY Beast RGB 32GB (2x16GB) 3733MT/s DDR4 Memory Kit. When selecting the 3733MT/s XMP profile #1 in the BIOS settings, the timings are shown as 20-24-24, when this RAM is sold as CL19 and supposed to run as 19-23-23, which is also stated on the packaging it...

    Solved New RAM Causing Restarts

    Apologies, this specific issue is now resolved. It was overclocking being enabled in Omen Gaming Hub causing the issue. Once I switched that off, it works. That said, I do have another related issue I've now noticed: When selecting the 3733mt/s XMP profile in the BIOS, the timings are shown as...

    Solved New RAM Causing Restarts

    Hi all, Today my new RAM arrived and upon installing, the PC simply lights up for 3-5 seconds, before everything switches off again and then the cycle just continuously repeats. When I put my old RAM in - as I have now - the PC is back to working just fine. My current RAM is HyperX Fury RGB...

    How To Find Out Motherboards Max RAM Speed Capability?

    Also, would I be right in saying that - per the calculator in the image - option 2 should actually be the best in terms of speed/responsiveness, despite running at lower mt/s? 1 is my current RAM and 2 and 3 are the specs of two others I'm considering for the upgrade if the 4000mt/s isn't doable.

    How To Find Out Motherboards Max RAM Speed Capability?

    Thanks for the responses. The PC is a HP Omen 40L GT21-0000i. I'm currently using a 12700K - the CPU the PC came with - but considering upgrading to a 14900k. The current HyperX RAM that the PC came with is running at 3733mt/s using XMP on the out of the box set up with the 12700K.

    How To Find Out Motherboards Max RAM Speed Capability?

    Hi all, I'm currently using 16GB HyperX Fury 3733mt/s DDR4 RAM, and am considering upgrading to 32GB Corsair Vengeance Pro SL 4000mt/s RAM, which also has lower CL timing. My question is, how do I find out for certain that my motherboard is capable of utilising the full 4000? Currently my RAM...

    Solved Confused by RAM Speeds

    Unfortunately, it seems it's impossible to get two "matching" sticks to what's already in the PC. I contacted HyperX and they informed me that it's not a product they actually sell, that it's specifically made for HP (and it seems it's actually made by Kingston rather than HyperX themselves) and...

    Solved Confused by RAM Speeds

    I'd actually be replacing the current RAM entirely. So the 2x8GB HyperX sticks would be out, and I'd be getting 4x8GB of the Kingston RAM that I've linked previously. What I'm still a little confused about is should I then be buying RAM that is advertised as being 3200MHz (which is the apparent...

    Solved Confused by RAM Speeds

    Any further thoughts @Bruce ? Does it look on the face of it like this product should be fine (considering I'm currently running with HyperX Fury 3733MHz RAM, which came with the PC) then?: https://www.cclonline.com/kf436c17bbak2-16-kingston-fury-beast-rgb-16gb-2x8gb-3600mhz-ddr4-memory-kit/
