i have a firm 800 dollars and zero screwdriver confidence. should i build??

oh ive been there lol honestly just reset the extension and save yourself teh pain. @eriks565 what did u end up doing in teh end lmk how it goes

oof same issue here on my second monitor setup. no idea whats going on

lol same thing happened to me building is very doalbe for a beginner if you take ur time. Read the motherboard manual, especially the front panel connector and RAM slot pages. Most first build problems are RAM in the wrong slots or a missing CPU power cable. good luck man!

A self build gives you one warranty per part, which is good for repairs but means u diagnose problems yourself. A prebuilt gives you one support line, which is great if u dont want to troubleshoot. hope that helps :)

lol this thread is gold, for me it was the cable.. 😂 swapped it and boom, fixed

ok so honestly just reset the antivirus and save yourself teh pain. bump. still happening with editing for me
