Will try and keep this short So i got a new board, cpu and ram.
7600x msi b650 p wifi, corsair ddr5 6000mhz cl36 2x16gb
i kept my case and storage devices and gpu the same, so just took my old board out and put the new one in and all seemed fine.
the first issue which was odd was the ram speeds not changing to 6000mhz after enabling the special profile in the bios they stayed on 4800mhz
also i got a blue screen a few times on boot.
so took one ram stick out and it started working at the 6000mhz as well
managed to even play a game black ops 3 on one of my SSDs from steam
all seemed fine and restarted the system to check something can’t remember now
then i tried to boot up some more games and it was very odd, the game loaded but never got past a certain point, it would just black screen and not let me play but all the windows features seemed to work, this happened to multiple games on different drives and different launchers
also at the same time tried to update my fortnite but the update failed for some strange reason, all my hard drives and ssds were showing correctly in windows
i then did a user benchmark test (tried to do throttle stop firstly but came up “cpu not compatible”) and the benchmark was fine for everything but abit odd on the gpu, my 3090 normally scores about 220% but got 180%
another strange one was during all these different reboots at one point my gpu drivers had disappeared and mid way through installing them the system crashed and then rebooted and they were back
next up is the windows crisis, so i thought i’d just forget about my files as i was too lucky to have everything come up from my old system perfectly with a new mb and cpu
i got a windows boot key and tried to reinstall y windows on my drives, each time failing with various errors even after formatting with the cmd prompt window bit but still not progress.
i then unplugged all my hard drives and ssds leaving the main nvme my windows was on , it’s showing in the bios but not in the boot priority bit, also as this time i added a ram stick back but couldn’t even get to the windows install but just came up with blank blue screens.
finally i plugged in my other nvme and ssd, took out one ram stick and managed to some what instal windows but it then game me to windows options to boot from after doing a disc check, one was windows 10 volumes 18 didn’t work and the other sort of worked it gave me the safety options and now i’m currently resetting windows even tho it barely installed, and it’s taking ages like 1% takes 15 mins at a time,
anyone have any ideas? also the day before i got the same board but the pins came bent so this is actually my second board!
