  1. Wrong Monitor Set as my main


    Hello, I need help with this problem. I was using two monitors before. (One a Dell and another a Samsung Smart TV) I accidental changed my main monitor to the the samsung. Now when I boot up my PC, I can not open any applications because the resolution is not supported. I can not change the res because I cant open any applications on the working monitor. (The connections are: VGA for my Dell (the working one) and HDMI for my Samsung.

    :)

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
