Compatibility verification required! (Arc, 4770, server motherboard)
Sure, I can help you look into this. You're aiming for an i7-4770 build with an ARC GPU, using some random components and parts. Let's see what kind of performance you're getting and which GPU options might fit well. The part list you've got looks solid, but the GPU choice is key. The A350 is a decent option, but there are others to consider depending on your budget and needs. Would you like some recommendations based on your current specs?
Intel Arc GPUs can lose significant performance without enabling the resizable bar, and this feature isn’t available in the 4th generation Intel chips. Arc is a fresh technology, but it’s best to avoid using it on older systems. Other GPUs with similar specs and price will still perform well!
Intel Arc requires a resizable bar to operate correctly. It doesn’t function properly without one, even during non-gaming activities, leading to strange behavior and instability. The device isn’t reliable for continuous use—don’t rely on it. If you’re running a server, there’s no need for Arc at all. Your GPU already handles everything.
alongside the challenges of arc support on older systems, the motherboard fails to recognize Core i7 as a compatible CPU. This makes it clear you're likely facing limitations right from the start.
Thank you all for your support! Using a random 1050 TI made it work again. Thanks for the help!
