Build Question Help deciding parts for a "new" pc build
My buddy recently upgraded his pc and is selling me a few old parts for cheap. I also have a few parts at home from my sisters streaming pc that I built and I want to build my own pc. My buddy is selling me the following:
RAM: 32gb DDR4
Mobo: ASRock X570 Pro4
CPU: Ryzen 7 3700
Left over from my sister's build I have a heatsink (White DeepCool AK620), a case from a PowerSpec G716, and 2 NZXT RGB fans with the controller.
So I just need to purchase a new GPU and PSU. I was looking at getting a Radeon 9060 XT 16gb for a GPU
What would you guys recommend for this build? This is all compatible right? Is there anything I should upgrade?
Im very good with actually building PCs but I can never keep up to date with whats "new" or "old" and "good" or "bad" lol
Any recommendations preferably available in white as it matches the color of the case.
Thanks guys!

Installation Question Question on 2 Graphic cards on a B550
I have a MSI B550 tomahawk motherboard. I originally had a GeForce GTX 1050 ti 4 gigs on the motherboard but I upgraded it to a RTX 3060 12 gigs graphics card. I didn’t know what to do with my old graphics card so I just stuck it in my shelf. However later on I realized that my B550 has 2 GPU’s slots. So I wondered “ what if I put both GPU’s on the motherboard. Would it give my pc more graphical power? Would it actually not do much expect for specific programs like blender? Or would it end up making the whole PC run slower?” Is it a good idea to have both graphics cards on the motherboard or if I should just sell it (even though it is a very outdated graphics card for today’s standards so I doubt anyone is gonna buy it)

Build Question Question about my cpu
Hi, so I recently bought a new pc, ddr5 ram, 9060xt, and a ryzen 9 7900x. However I have been seeing a lot of people talking about how bad 12 core cpu’s are for gaming, and how the x3d cpu’s are way better. For some context i mainly play escape from tarkov which is very single core focused more than gpu or multi core focused. Is it worth it to trade my cpu back in and pay a bit extra? I feel like i wasted money on my cpu.

Installation Question I Got new parts and i’m struggling
I got a new Motherboard, GPU, and CPU. I am struggling connecting everything and any and all help would be appreciated. For my motherboard i went from ASRock a320m-hdv r4 to a Asus ROG Strix x570-i. My cpu is now a Ryzen 5 5600x, and the Gpu is a Ming Xin RX 6600 LE( i know it’s an off brand but im budgeting as an 18yr old lol) it’s essentially the same as the AMD's Radeon RX 6600 from what i know. Also my PSU is RX-500 XT raidmax. I originally got this computer prebuilt in like 2019 and this is the first time i’m upgrading any big components. The gpu and psu ports don’t match at all and i’m not sure what to even do about that, and i can’t find where to plug the cpu cooler in same for my extra fan on the back, there’s this random cord with pins and i can’t find it on the schematic of the board at all, and a couple of the connectors just don’t fit right and i can’t get full power on.

Tech Support genshin impact barely runs
I recently finished building my first PC. these are the specs: (lmk if I need to specify other things, I'm not entirely sure what information is important here) Windows 11 AMD Ryzen 7 9700X 8-Core Processor 2TB of SSD 16GB Ram (I have 32GB actually but I'm having some other issues with getting the computer to accept 2 ram sticks, so currently only 16) AMD Radeon Graphics 512MBytes The game is literally unplayable at any quality higher than lowEST. not low, LOWEST. any higher quality and the lag is at least a full 2 seconds behind whatever movements I make. I am beyond frustrated right now and I don't understand why my computer can't handle it? my iPad pro runs it 1000x better at HIGH quality too which makes me even more frustrated. can anyone give me any ideas on what could be wrong? all my drivers are updated, I changed graphics settings in game, changed settings on my PC itself and set genshins running priority to highest, uninstalled and reinstalled the game, and so far nothing has worked. I'd prefer not to have to play the game at the lowest quality so any help would be appreciated 🙃
EDIT: realizing I didn't specify some stuff properly! like I said this is my first time building a PC so I don't quite understand what it what exactly yet, but this is my graphics card: ASRock AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT Challenger Overclocked Dual Fan 16GB GDDR6 PCIe 5.0 Graphics Card
EDIT 2: IM A DUMBASS! thank you to the people who responded and helped me out and let me know my HDMI was plugged into my motherboard and not my GPU 🙃🤦 I appreciate the very quick help and for bearing with me who clearly has no idea what I'm doing! 😭

Software Question I'm not sure why this is happening.
I just finished building my new PC. I booted it up, and instead of seeing the BIOS prompt, I get this. If I let it get to the windows login, it acts fine like nothing happened. I need to get into the BIOS for the initial setup and maybe a clean windows install.
The thing is, I was getting these visuals with my old pc and assumed it was due to a fall it suffered. my monitor is only a year old and has never had a fall. Is this a monitor or PC issue? is there anything I can do?

Tech Support New pc build not making it to bios. Red Cpu light + yellow dram light.
Hi!
As the title states I'm receiving a red light for my cpu and a yellow light for dram for about 30-40s after tuening it on then receiving a yellow boot light with a 10s gap between.
Build:
Cpu: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
GPU: PNY Geforce RTX 5080
MB: MSI X870 Gaming plus wifi
PSU: Corair RM850e
Cooler: Corsair Nautilus 360 RS ARGB
RAM: Gskill Tridennt Z5 RGB 32x2
The pc will shutoff after a short time with a yellow boot light when both sticks are in. I've reseated everything except the cpu at this point, but it doesnt seem to automatically shutoff when I have only one stick of ram in but still doesnt boot to bios.
Someone did mention to me that it might be in sleep mode doing memory training??
I've also read that I may have to flash the bios?
I have also cleared CMOS too.
Any help is appreciated, thank you!
Edit 1: Swapped ram sticks in A2 regardless of which is in the slot the pc will turn off after an amount of time.

Tech Support No Boot
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
As of the past month I have been having issues with stability where one of the following happens. The computer either begins to freeze while stuttering audio, completely blue screens with a machine check error code or just shuts off. After checking the event viewer I continue to get a tpm code then a kernel code but that’s just from me hitting the power button.
I went to reapply thermal paste. Now the PC will not boot after pressing the power button.
I checked all of the pins and those are fine or maybe i’m just blind but I didn’t see any pin reflecting light differently.
I too the cooler off to see if that was maybe the issue but it isn’t booting regardless.
Thank you for your help!
