Like I've built many computers no issue but I did first am5 build today and couldn't get it to post. Can't tell if it's the refurbished cpu or the refurbished board lol

Is it a "new" CPU like 7800X3D? You might have to update BIOS first, try to do that using the M-flash USB port at the back. If it doesnt work then that means MoBo is dead I guess

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:11 AM

No it is compatible out of the box

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:11 AM

7600

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:12 AM

I'm hoping it's the cpu ngl because easiest replacement but like if it's the board that's wild because the cpu was off ebay and the board off newegg and they've just been sitting in boxes for months

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:12 AM

Never buying my parts piecemeal ever again,

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:12 AM

Now outside return windows

Paul Atreides•7/11/24, 5:15 AM

Well you can try updating the BIOS anyways, if it does update then that removes motherboard from the mix

Paul Atreides•7/11/24, 5:16 AM

Cant the issue be RAM too?

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:17 AM

Ram was brand new

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:18 AM

The ram light does light up alongside the cpu but I assumed it was because of whatever other issue it is

M2•7/11/24, 5:18 AM

If CPU error light is on it could be the socket

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:18 AM

That's what I thinking, but I don't genuinely think I did anything

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:19 AM

Unless am5 socket is really fragile, I handled everything well

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:19 AM

But board was refurbished so someone may have screwed up and then returned it and newegg didn't properly check

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:24 AM

Worst case I'll get another cpu tomorrow, if it doesn't work I'll get another board and then RMA the other things

Dobsgw•7/11/24, 5:52 AM

Isn't that neweggs whole thing? Blatant fraud...

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 5:53 AM

IDK i don't blame them yet until I confirm the issue

Dobsgw•7/11/24, 5:53 AM

Gamers Nexus gave them a hard time over it. They might be more lenient with you if you do need to make returns etc

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 5:57 AM

sip

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 6:00 AM

is bestbuy/newegg kinda its own platform thing or just a store to buy pc related parts, don't know how they work since I'm on the other side of the earth

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 6:03 AM

Best Buy is a physical and also website store

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 6:03 AM

Newegg is a website store

KrazedHeroOP•7/11/24, 6:03 AM

They don't have any connection I don't think, if that's what you're asking

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 6:06 AM

ah I see

Onihikage•7/11/24, 6:47 AM

the connection is all digital storefronts sell the same generic crap now in addition to whatever stuff they actually specialize in

Onihikage•7/11/24, 6:47 AM

like home depot is a physical home improvement store, they sell tools and construction materials

Onihikage•7/11/24, 6:48 AM

yet on the website they also have gaming keyboards

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 6:56 AM

must be cheaper in other places and have some sort of better insurance policy, I think

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 7:30 AM

well that's heroic launcher, epic games should still be fine in lutris

polo199•7/11/24, 9:38 AM

Hi there, I'm considering switching from Nobara to Bazzite. Quick question: how's the support with the original Steam Controller? Does it work ingame and in desktop mode properly? In Nobara, I had to switch to X11 to get proper support.

Valerie•7/11/24, 9:44 AM

Yep, Bazzite has some steam related stuff to make steam input work properly

Thanks. I will give Bazzite a try and report here.

It may take a second when the controller connects for the cursor to move, but after that it just works. Same on the Steam Deck.

Valerie•7/11/24, 9:47 AM

Wayland is used for desktop KDE & GNOME on the Deck images and relies on Steam Input too.

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 9:50 AM

MMuko Tabi wayland nvidia is kinda still a 50/50 so do note that

polo199•7/11/24, 9:52 AM

I'm running AMD GPU. Went this way when I started to build my HTPC. Thanks for the heads-up

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 9:52 AM

ah then should be fine

MMuko Tabi wayland nvidia is kinda still a 50/50 so do note that

Valerie•7/11/24, 9:52 AM

I mean the steam input fixes should work, but Wayland Nvidia is shit anywhere so not much anybody can do.

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 9:52 AM

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 9:52 AM

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 10:41 AM

yh epic games seems to be working fine on lutris

WeeberWeebMan•7/11/24, 10:44 AM

hey guys, just want your thoughts and answer on an idea i want to try

is it possible for me to insert 2 gpu, 1 nvidia and another amd for windows and linux(bazzite)

the idea is to have windows to use the nvidia gpu and when booting into bazzite, using the amd gpu

edit: windows and bazzite will be installed in different drives

Muko Tabi•7/11/24, 10:47 AM

so is it dual boot or gpu passthrough

WeeberWeebMan•7/11/24, 10:48 AM

dual boot

Fernando Alonso•7/11/24, 10:53 AM
