"and its been in holding by fedex waiting on importer instructions for 2 weeks now"
You have to ring PCS and get them to forward this information on , I done it for my mate and it cleared the same day.
The delivery times are terrible in my experience.
H510
5600x
Asus Prime B550 Plus
32GB 3600mhz
1TB 670p NVME
Palit 3060ti
Corsair 650w non modular
Nothing crazy but with the price of GPU's I scaled it back a bit . I have my own modular Corsair HX850w PSU to go into it at some point and my H100i of I can get the bracket. Already moved my...
Yeah I wasn't very happy about it. It was raining on and off during the day aswell. Going by the scans I arrived about 20 minutes after the delivery thankfully.
Yeah happy enough. One of the chasis fans was plugged into the OPT CPU header having it running pretty high being a slave to the CPU...
Just came home from work and it was sitting at my front door.
Doesn't look to be any damage to the case etc, box wasn't sealed.
Installing Windows now and I'll update then.
It can be done via Nvidia Control Centre, however the gains are usually small.
I have an old ASUS PB27Q as a second monitor (1440p 60hz) and have it clocked to 85Hz. My 144hz monitor cannot even clock to 145hz so mileage may vary.
A quick goolge will show you how to do it
Press the Del button at start up is the easiest way to enter BIOS. XMP should be under memory configuration.
If it's occuring again though it would point to something else.
If your chipset driver is failing to install there may be an issue with the windows install, although Windows 11 could be...
Ram back into the same slots? A2 and B2 (second and 4th from the left)
If it is I'd check your ram speed in the BIOS and make sure XMP wasn't disabled.
Then check your game settings ( what game by the way? ) and GPU clock speeds
I would bump that PSU up to at least 850w.
While 750w is recommended there have been more than a few reports of shutdowns from big power draw spikes from the 3080 across different forums and websites. Some people have no issues while others have to get a new PSU, I'd save some hassle and...
Is there any beeps when it won't post?
The light itself only points that there is a problem with booting.
Because its intermittent it's hard to diagnose.
You could run SeaTools Hard Drive Test to test your hard drives and Memtest86 to test your ram ( run overnight)
It still sounds like a...
No worries it gave me a chuckle when I set it.
It seems fedex at the minute are slammed worldwide. Talking to some fastway and dpd lads they're busy yes but not anything like fedex.
I've no updates myself apart from a few scans after I rang PCS. Fedex can't give an estimate of how long the back log will take to clear.
I actually rang today after another week of no delivery to see if I could cancel the order but I can't until either I have it,PCS have it or Fedex declare it...
As Spyder said, its best to register the PC incase its more involved, they will know the full specs and will help if any hardware issues are present.
Have a look at the boot device priority in the BIOS and make sure the 512GB drive is there and above the 2TB drive in the boot priority list.
If...
Did you install anything new prior to this happening? Change any settings?
Can you enter the BIOS screen?
Without your specs from your order page the advice given can only be general in nature.
Can you post your specs from the order page please.
Was it failing to POST ( bios splash page) or failing to boot into windows?
You said you formatted the hard drive,how did you do this?
