    My stop me from now Buying the HP Omen Obelisk RTX 2080Ti build if it doesn't explode

    Never tried that. Will let you know if that does the trick next time it happens. It must be some stupid thing I need to update. Does it sound like it could be a hardware defect or likely a driver issue. So simple yet so annoying.

    My stop me from now Buying the HP Omen Obelisk RTX 2080Ti build if it doesn't explode

    thanks, that sounds like it’s worth trying with the restart. It actually wakes the monitor up for a second like a signal was sent but then the monitor doesn’t get any more input and goes back to sleep. It actually just happened again. Last night I put the pc to sleep manually and I just hit the...

    Hi, the system is on and the power led is blinking. I think it's the video card not putting out signal. I changed settings to computer never goes to sleep and that has allowed the monitor to shut down and not freeze in sleep mode.

    Hi Thanks. I'm amazed at how quite it's running when I'm playing games as well. Everything has been great aside from a weird "no wake up from sleep" issue that happens sometimes, but that is only when the system goes to sleep

    It does actually warn you when you switch that if image has issues switch back. So far it looks like a great monitor. Probably the nicest I've ever purchased, but it's not like I've purchased a lot of $1k monitors 😂😂😂. I'm probably crazy, but I am happy 😊

    My stop me from now Buying the HP Omen Obelisk RTX 2080Ti build if it doesn't explode

    Hi, the monitor is beautiful, even my wife likes it 😊😊. Very sharp, colors great and so far so good. No dead pixels as well. Really sharp and while I think I see a difference on metro when I switch between 144 and 160, could be wishful thinking. Question if do I leave overclock monitor on, or...

    My stop me from now Buying the HP Omen Obelisk RTX 2080Ti build if it doesn't explode

    Thanks to the forum for all the help. Finally built the system and living it. Ran into a front panel pin configuration which had me nuts for a night but system is running beautifully quiet even while playing metro exodus on high settings and just overall rocks. Wouldn't have been as nice without...

    Dumbass question on my part, but fire away? Mobo with Wifi

    Thanks. I'll actually have another (my current) PC up and running next to it as well. I'll pull files off of the included CDs and as you suggested gonto asus website and download the latest bios and drop them all on another USB key.

    Thanks. I'll pre load the drivers that might apply onto another USB key before starting.

    Dumbass question on my part, but fire away? Mobo with Wifi

    I haven't built a PC in a while and here is my really stupid question I can't seem to find the answer to with multiple reworded searches online. Can I set up my fully new newly built PC, windows 10 pro USB installation key (Mobo is a Asus TUF X570 plus Wifi) using the mobo wifi or do I need to...

    Building my first all out gaming rig in years, What game would you pick (FPS, Adventure mainly)

    I've been trying to give VR a chance for years 😊. Haven't tried much lately others than psvr which is mediocre at best on my PS4. Would be great to see a true hi res headset that was reasonable and supported. I'm curious what the new half life is like. No more $$ for headset for now 🙁

    Building my first all out gaming rig in years, What game would you pick (FPS, Adventure mainly)

    Thanks. I started off a long time ago on text based games like orc 😉😉😉😉. Our brains produce some pretty cool graphics. Didn't even know Deus Ex was still around off of mobile. Thanks for suggestion.

    Building my first all out gaming rig in years, What game would you pick (FPS, Adventure mainly)

    So after years of just console I'm just waiting for a few more parts to build my first home/gaming rig (specs below). I got a lot of help from new friends here on the forum too. So I did the best I could stretch to make this. What game would be the first you would pick for this system to start...

    I think I figured out my own misunderstanding. I thought that the Asus didn't have any front IO other than audio. It is only lacking a USB 3.1 Gen2 port but has the others that I can use with my NZXT front panel. Thanks on Storage advice.
