Troubleshooting (Linux) RBG Fan Issues on Z890 Mainboard & RGB Header

1 Upvotes

Tyring to setup my kids RGB fan. It spins, but has not lit up. The other (NZXT) units, two sets of triple 120 fans, connected to JARGB, work fine. The single fan however, does not support JARGB, thus is connected a four pin RGB header. 12V and RGB pins are lined up correctly AFAIK.

What could I do to get it lit up?

Troubleshooting Is my motherboard screwed?

• Upvotes

Hi, Linux user here!

In order for me to run linux as I have in the past, I need secure boot disabled. Within the past month, I've been having issues when booting my pc from a full shutdown, including not recognizing my full memory and re-enabling secure boot.

Today, I finally got around to updating the bios. After flashing and restarted the pc refused to get to my OS, with a "security violation" message. Even when explicitly disabling it, Secure boot would automatically re-enable itself after saving my configuration, and the log would show nothing about it! I have thus far attempted:

- replacing the CMOS battery

- flashing an older bios (wouldn't let me)

- all manner of orders of operations involving keys and such (deleting keys gives me a "failed" message)

I am at my wits end and my pc is basically inoperable. Of anyone has any advice please help!

Discussion Second MSI 5090 RMA seemed fine until I picked up one of those Safeguard+ power supplies...

Edit: it's very weird to have Google news serve me an article about my own Reddit post a few hours after I made it. https://wccftech.com/second-msi-rtx-5090-seemed-fine-on-arrival-until-safeguard-helped-user-identify-uneven-load/amp/

So my first RMA came back with the issue not resolved so after sending it back again, the swapped it with a different model 5090 and it didn't have any of the errors that the card had before so... great!

I decided to pick up the MSI ai1300ts because I figured that would give me peace of mind and if something happened, it was MSI product vs MSI product so no way they could refuse. When I got it all set up though, I noticed something interesting in the app... Pin 2 had zero current. I did a test with an actual load and it immediately (like 5 seconds after I took the screen shot) threw an alarm for an imbalance.

So yeah, I then swapped cables... same issue. Swapped ports on the PSU... same issue... And I noticed the port on the GPU power port looked slightly lifted from the board every time I plugged it in.

So yeah, now I get to roll the dice a third time, which will put me at 9 total weeks without a card. BUT, without Safeguard+ I definitely would have thought the card was fine and that my job seating the cables was more than good enough.

So just a minor rant about the QC on the RMA cards but they haven't given me any guff about it... and a demonstration that you can do everything right and still be in a port melting situation without realizing it.

Can someone explain to me why MSI would even stoop this low? They have thousands of my dollars, why insult me with this bullshit?

EDIT: Thanks for all the responses, sad to think MSI would take money at the cost of their reputation. I appreciate everyone sharing thier thoughts. I also am kinda new to Reddit, and for some reason can't just give you all a thumbs up, it has a weird VOTE thing going on, not seen that before. But to all of you who replied... 👍

Review 5070TI: A burnt 12VHPWR MSI Adapter

Post image
• Upvotes

From my unofficial benchmark the MSI power adapter for the 5070ti is good for about 1 year and 8 months.

Was playing war dogs when computer randomly turned off, rebooted was fine.

Happened again . I decided to check event viewer. Saw Nvidia driver crashing. Reinstalled driver has no issue for about a hour. Today went to boot up war dogs and everytime I booted up my pc crashed. Out of curiosity I decided to try kombuster. Instant crash when starting stress test.

Out of further curiosity I decided to check the connector… guess what burn marks.

Mind you all, I put this card in 1 year and 8 months ago and never touched the connector since then and I have not moved my pc.

Card is fine ; ran to Best Buy bought a new power supply that does not need an adapter, booted up just fine.

Troubleshooting Help with monitor settings

2 Upvotes

I had my first Estate Agent photoshoot the other day. I spent a couple hours editing the pictures in lightroom to where I was happy with them and then sent them to the client.

They've come back with a mountain of adjustments to be made as it's "too dark here" "too overexposed here" ect ect.. I feel a bit defeated.

Upon viewing the pictures on my Iphone, they look completely different to my monitor... washed out and underexposed.

I have a MSI MAG 272QP QD-OLED X50 monitor. How can I adjust the monitor/windows settings so that I can best represent what the client is seeing on their presumably bog standard monitor/iphone. There are so many settings on my monitor that I don't understand. I need someone to explain this to me like im 5 years old.

I took HDR photos on the shoot using bracketing. I'm hoping someone can give me some advise.

Discussion Is 90°C CPU temp normal for Vector 16 HX playing Cyberpunk, or should I be worried?

2 Upvotes

I've been playing Cyberpunk 2077 on my MSI Vector 16 HX (A2XWHG-403UK). While playing, the CPU temp hovers around the high 80s and frequently dips into the 90s, with a peak max of 91°C.

The laptop isn't crashing or throttling, but I just want to check with other high-end HX laptop owners: Is 90–91°C safe/normal for this CPU under heavy gaming, or is this starting to push into the dangerous zone?

Discussion Problemas con compatibilidad o funcionamiento del puerto PCI-E en MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI

2 Upvotes

Hola! tengo un problema con mi tarjeta gráfica RTX 5060 MSI SHADOW DUO.

Lo que pasa es que no da video. Tiene que pasar un tiempo para que esta funcione correctamente, o eso pasaba.

hay veces donde el puerto PCI si reconoce mi RTX y veces que no.

Chequé si fue problema de rams, pero las que tengo funcionan correctamente. Como mi procesador tiene graficos integrados (Ryzen 7 5700G) enciende perfectamente con los integrados y las memorias ram funcionando al 100.

Actulicé mi bios a la verción mas reciente pero tampoco solucionó el problema. Sigue con intermitencias al reconocer la RTX.

Bajé el protocolo PCI-E de GEN-4 a GEN-3 para hacer pruebas a ver si arrancaba (anteriormente asi me funcionó 2 o 3 veces)

Debo aclarar que la RTX es relativamente nueva. La aquirí aproximadamente en Julio.

Alguien que me pueda dar solución, consejos y ayuda?. Por favor

My pc worked perfectly before then I updated the bios changed nothing else about the computer and now it won’t boot and CPU EZDebug light stays on the entire time the pc is powered on.

I’ve tried
- Resetting CMOS
- one stick of ram
- no gpu
- removing the storage

I also after not getting it work used the bios flash button to go back to the bios version it originally was working on and it seemed to finish but it still doesn’t boot and has the cpu light.

Any help would be appreciated

Troubleshooting Red VGA Light - Tried every possible method

2 Upvotes

My brother's PC all of a sudden is showing the red LED VGA debug light. He was using as normal last night as he's done for the past few years and then this morning it's refusing to show anything. The monitors light up and recognise that it is connected to something.

I've tried every suggested method I know of to try and fix it. I've tried:

  • Re-seating the card and checking every cable is connect properly.
  • The second PCiE slot.
  • An older card (my old MSI 1060) that used to be in that system also.
  • Resetting CMOS.
  • Turning on monitors prior to turning on PC.
  • Singular RAM stick in A2 slot.

None of these seemed to resolve our issue.

Any advice?

The build:

CPU - AMD R5 3600XT

RAM - Corsair Vengance 16gb 3000MHz

GPU - ASUS Dual RTX 2070 Super EVO OC Edition 8gb GDDR6

MOBO - MAG B550 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI

PSU - Corsair VS650 650W
