Hello, Im trying to play a game called Valorant but it prompts me saying it needs UEFI boot mode, however I have secure boot enabled in BIOS, my secure boot mode is enabled and my AMD fTPM is enabled.

Despite secure boot being set to enabled, it shows as not active in BIOS, and the system mode shows setup mode instead of user mode. The options to reset factory keys and etc is greyed out.

My disk is already GPT so it's not an MBR issue conversion issue. CSM is already disabled.

If anyone could help I'd really appreciate it!

hey everyone, really can’t figure out how to get windows to find my SATA in the ‘install driver to show hardware’ screen.

I have ACHI enabled and not RAID, I also tried running a command to convert it to gpt but no luck

Any help would really be appreciated

Hello, planning to build my first ever PC and wanted to check if everything's compatible or if anyone thinks im overpaying/could get similar performance parts for better prices. I have a PS5 which I will use to run AAA games such as rdr2 and new releases, I plan to use the PC more for fps shooter games like csgo, valorant, fortnite and etc as well as other stuff but nothing that requires loads of gpu. I do really want to play subnautica 2 on 1440p and 60fps when it comes out and these are the recommended specs according to developers. But aside from that im really just aiming for 1440p gaming at 140fps since my monitor is 144hz anyway. Currently im thinking about:

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600 (£114)
GPU: RTX 3070 (£210 used on ebay)
RAM: Silicon Power GAMING 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory (£113)
Memory: Silicon Power A55 512 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive (£60)
Motherboard: Gigabyte B550M K Micro ATX AM4 (£70)
Case: Antec CX800 ARGB Mid Tower - White (£60 with delivery)
PSU: Gigabyte GP-P650G PG5 650 W (£47)

I would go with the 5500 cpu for price reasons but I've heard that if I can spare the extra money it's worth the upgrade to a 5600 due to L3 cache and etc which apparently is useful for gaming but if anyone has any insights/advice on the build as a whole lmk!
