DarknessFalls229#2286: is/was he able to fix it and send it back? Techo#7399: He's waiting on replacement caps i think Techo#7399: Right now DarknessFalls229#2286: ah alright, cool that youve got a contact that can do that type of stuff DarknessFalls229#2286: i simply resorted to buying a new GPU, two in fact DarknessFalls229#2286: of 4 if you count the dies Techo#7399: I wanted to upgrade from 1050ti Techo#7399: Since the R9 390 is somewhat like a 1060 DarknessFalls229#2286: but alas, things went the wrong way, but atleast it seems recoverable. eventhough it might take some time Techo#7399: Ye Techo#7399: I'm stuck with my GTX 680 Techo#7399: Until then DarknessFalls229#2286: got rid of the 1050ti or just more comfortable with the 680?

Techo#7399: And my brother who i gave my GTX 680 and my VS650 as well Techo#7399: I had to get it back Techo#7399: And my parents complained at me for "stealing" and started to complain about rights and all this Techo#7399: Even thou the performance difference between GTX 1050ti Techo#7399: And GTX 680 Techo#7399: Is barely noticeable 😂 Techo#7399: So i switched them about DarknessFalls229#2286: so that, in the future, youll be able to upgrade to the 390 Techo#7399: And my brother complained because the CiT wouldn't work in his pc when i tested it for whatever so i had to use this Dell OEM PSU i had spare (which is the same thing pretty much)
Techo#7399: And he only complained because there wasn't a power switch at the back of PSU... Techo#7399: My brother uses the switch whenever he stays up late 😂 DarknessFalls229#2286: hm, alright, interesting Techo#7399: And ye that was why i needed the VS650 Techo#7399: For R9 390 DarknessFalls229#2286: and now its just a waiting game, isnt it? Techo#7399: What do you mean by? TheFifthAce#4128: VS :giga: TheFifthAce#4128: @Techo vs are timebombs DarknessFalls229#2286: hey @TheFifthAce have you seen my 690 up above?

DarknessFalls229#2286: yup, 120 euro for the pair TheFifthAce#4128: solid af Techo#7399: That's better than my GTX 680 TheFifthAce#4128: kepler kinda gay but it'll still run stuff great Techo#7399: Which i got for £45 i think at the time
DarknessFalls229#2286: i just simply wanted to replace my current half assed 690, so i suddenly found 2 watercooled ones and jumped on the ad TheFifthAce#4128: inb4 midnight comes back and says 690 = 1050 ti DarknessFalls229#2286: well wait until i activate Hexa SLI with my 3 690s TheFifthAce#4128: but yeah sli watercool 690s sounds epic DarknessFalls229#2286: and yes, i know hexa sli doesnt exist and that one of my 690s is broken. but yeah. watercooled 690 sound and, in real life, look aweseome TheFifthAce#4128: I personally love all the old amp cards TheFifthAce#4128: none of the newer ones TheFifthAce#4128: I like the mesh ones DarknessFalls229#2286: old cards just have that kinda design that make them look interesting than the more modern 'gamer aestetic' that the new cards have TheFifthAce#4128: yeah TheFifthAce#4128: Tbf I do love the carbon black of evga TheFifthAce#4128: Perfect for painting or pairing with any theme DarknessFalls229#2286: black goes well with everything doesnt it TheFifthAce#4128: Yeah TheFifthAce#4128: https://twitter.com/LisaSu/status/1118130682579103744

Deleted User#0000: Fifkey sounds like a kinky fetish DarknessFalls229#2286: Also, i just found out one of the 690 that arrived is missing some resistors, it crashes upon driver install DarknessFalls229#2286: 'I did some fifkey with your girl in your bed' Deleted User#0000: Lmfao Thomas Callaghan#6969: :magikHAHA: SussyBalls#4615: GTX 760 4GB for 52 dollars :Thonking: SussyBalls#4615: is the card actually powerful enough to use all 4 gigs DarknessFalls229#2286: Id say dont do it DarknessFalls229#2286: Get something like a 470 for that price SussyBalls#4615: lol the cheapest rx 470 for me is 128 dollars used, and that's the 4 gig variant
SussyBalls#4615: oh well I don't urgently need a card DarknessFalls229#2286: Yeah, save it for something else, unless 52 dollars is really the cheapest you can get such performance SussyBalls#4615: I'm just looking for something cheap that still gets drivers for my backup pc, the hd 5770 in there is showing its age with its 3 year old drivers MythologicalZ#3752: Kekler meme DarknessFalls229#2286: If its a backup pc i reckon just going for something cheap, unless you want to mqtch your cpu performance SussyBalls#4615: Currently it's a bit of a shitshow lol, 2 power supplys, 4gb ddr3, shit hp board and an i5 2500 SussyBalls#4615: Going to upgrade the ram to 8gb, get a single power supply solution and see what I can do with the 5770 DarknessFalls229#2286: Sounds like a plan SussyBalls#4615: The board only supports up to 8gb which is a bit fat :Oof: SussyBalls#4615: It's also a Cupertino 2 so I'll have to do a bit of a workaround for any newer cards to work https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkBTSlBW2oc DarknessFalls229#2286: Okay then. One 690 is declared DOA Jamie.Cullen#8363: I generally stay clear of HP anything Jamie.Cullen#8363: They've always been very picky sajanator3#3333: @DarknessFalls229 OH NOOO
DarknessFalls229#2286: Second 690 is good DarknessFalls229#2286: Its a shame DarknessFalls229#2286: Should i ask for a refund? DarknessFalls229#2286: For the one 690 RandomTacos#3695: I'd say try a refund DarknessFalls229#2286: ive asked for a refund, waiting for a respons RandomTacos#3695: Best of luck to you TheFifthAce#4128: @Rio I'm getting a 7970 for shipping costs (unrelated to the college post thing, this is a guy I was talking with before), what kind of PSU should I pair with it ChonkyChu#9749: Anybody willing to help me with boot issues ChonkyChu#9749: I've got a PC gone rogue, one drive died to I removed it, was all running fine but now apparently my SSD doesn't want to work ChonkyChu#9749: They are all showing up in bios fine btw https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/567783939117285397/JPEG_20190416_195035.jpg Exomilav#5434: lets say i OC the R5 2600 im getting and wanna test temps and stability real quick and I use OCCT, how long should I run it for? thatubuntuguy#5914: Any stress test should be run for at least 30 minutes for any sign of stability thatubuntuguy#5914: Ideally you want to run it for 24 hrs no error just to be safe thatubuntuguy#5914: ***cough my 2500k***
Exomilav#5434: what do you mean by error? MythologicalZ#3752: No temp issues or reboots MythologicalZ#3752: Didn't know people still use OCCT ngl Exomilav#5434: what replaced OCCT? @MythologicalZ ChonkyChu#9749: Oof MythologicalZ#3752: Personally moved on to Realbench and P95 for most testing,OCCT had a lot of stability issues on lower voltages and Windows 10 occasionally had issues with it for me @Exomilav Saix856#2556: what is the best gpu under $60? Alcyone#2233: that is relative to where you live I suppose Saix856#2556: united states Saix856#2556: what would you say? JustinXenyx#8854: You could probably get a RX570D from china for like 50 bucks Alcyone#2233: radeon 280-x/380 maybe a geforce 960? I dont follow prices that much Alcyone#2233: I believe 970 and 290-x are $80+ still Alcyone#2233: kepler sucks and the 7970 is overpriced.
Abe.#3344: Is the Logitech G502 a decent mouse? I've been offered a used one for £35 shipped. I was looking at the HyperX Pulsefire Surge for £40 on Amazon (I have a £10 gift card I got for free). I currently have a very basic wireless mouse that changes sensitivity depending on battery life and it is starting to piss me off. Deinsti#5907: I have the 502 and yes, it's actually a really good mouse @Abe. Abe.#3344: @Deinsti does it have RGB tho? Abe.#3344: It's a unknown fact that RGB increases PC performance by 70% and increases skill by up to 90% Alcyone#2233: I set mouse rgb to blue to reduce sweating TheGeekster#8508: And this is why you have the tech helper role JustinXenyx#8854: I would advise against buying a used mouse tbh @Abe. Deinsti#5907: @Abe. yes Tinybox#9112: used mouse.. Used keyboard... Tinybox#9112: I wouldn't Tinybox#9112: I mean.. Imagine all the bacteria and bodily liquids on there.. Tinybox#9112: I mean unless they are good and free Tinybox#9112: And you got a lot of alcohol like me Tinybox#9112: Might as well..
Thomas Callaghan#6969: the g402 i have was used, but that was probably customer returns Alcyone#2233: I agree with tiny. flip your kb and smack it rn, see what comes out MagiWasTaken#4357: Hey there Someone needs some help from you tech-xperts (tech-experts) but I can't invite him to this discord. May someone provide me with a link for it? Deinsti#5907: @MagiWasTaken We're really sorry but this server doesn't take new users due to recent issues MagiWasTaken#4357: Oh, I see! MagiWasTaken#4357: Guess I haven't been that active in a while now since I'm still saving up for my new rig :C Deinsti#5907: You've missed a lot then :P MagiWasTaken#4357: Yeah, my exams and uni in general are really taking a lot of my time right now, oof. MagiWasTaken#4357: Thanks for the reply though! ❤ SussyBalls#4615: How long will the server remain closed to outsiders? Deinsti#5907: Who knows Deleted User#0000: Its indefinite. @SussyBalls @Deinsti SussyBalls#4615: F really didn't expect tech communitys to turn out so toxic though
Deleted User#0000: The tech community is filled with people who always think they're right, even when they ain't. This place is good for a tech server. Also take this to #deleted-channel or #⌛slow-chat⌛ @SussyBalls from now on taptapking#6216: my 650 is dead, it doesn't show anything on screen at all but the pc still posts through onboard graphics Lady Mipha#0611: Got another computer to test it in taptapking#6216: my oven is currently dead, can i use a lighter to torch it (but not directly) as a replacement for oven method? Lady Mipha#0611: No Lady Mipha#0611: I would not recommend it taptapking#6216: why not? taptapking#6216: (when I touch the back of the card while it's plugged into the PC, it doesn't get hot) JustinXenyx#8854: I wouldn't even recommend the oven method taptapking#6216: I don't even have any advanced tools thatubuntuguy#5914: Yeah lighter will not cut it thatubuntuguy#5914: Don't even do the oven method thatubuntuguy#5914: chances are its a faulty core not a faulty solder joint thatubuntuguy#5914: the oven may restore a joint in the core temporaril thatubuntuguy#5914: as the core heats up again it will break
Lady Mipha#0611: :Yessi: Lady Mipha#0611: Yeah JustinXenyx#8854: thing is, if you put it to the proper melting temperature of the solder (like roughly 200-ish celsius) you'll not only melt the solder, but destroy many components with it. In addition, many plastics melt at the same temperature, so the chance of the plastic melting isn't unlikely Lady Mipha#0611: Yup Lady Mipha#0611: Shorting the things life Alcyone#2233: If its already dead I'm not sure these concerns are relevant. A lighter won't work. You need a heat gun or an oven to shake n bake it. Which will likely not work as well DarknessFalls229#2286: Hmmm doesnt look like ill be getting a refund for my broken 690. Shame Jamie.Cullen#8363: Why not MythologicalZ#3752: How much you pay for it? JustinXenyx#8854: @MythologicalZ 120€ for 2 JustinXenyx#8854: One is DOA though MythologicalZ#3752: Not terrible tbh JustinXenyx#8854: have you requested a partial refund or just a refund? @DarknessFalls229 Jamie.Cullen#8363: Then why not a refund for the DOA card DarknessFalls229#2286: Partial
JustinXenyx#8854: huh, thats odd JustinXenyx#8854: the item is DOA after all DarknessFalls229#2286: But basicly shes says 'i sent two _working_ gpus so its your problem' DarknessFalls229#2286: And i can say the item """works""" DarknessFalls229#2286: It gives an output, windows default drivers work. But when you try newest nvidia drivers it shits itself JustinXenyx#8854: I really hope you bought it over ebay lol DarknessFalls229#2286: Marktplaats DarknessFalls229#2286: Dutch ebay JustinXenyx#8854: owned by ebay, same thing afaik DarknessFalls229#2286: Its more person to person here DarknessFalls229#2286: But we got some rights for getting the correct item DarknessFalls229#2286: But because its person to person its harder to apply DarknessFalls229#2286: Like i could take them to court, but thats stupid for 60 euro JustinXenyx#8854: just to make sure, VBIOS was updated etc? DarknessFalls229#2286: Well, theres shit missing on the pcb
TheFifthAce#4128: so then it doesnt work TheFifthAce#4128: its parts if drivers dont work DarknessFalls229#2286: Like 5 of those tiny risistors/capacitors or whatever theyre called, ones dislocated an a chip is also bent. There are also a few scratches present JustinXenyx#8854: I mean, it very much seems like shipping inflicted damage, which the seller is responsible for afaik DarknessFalls229#2286: Its was shipped in newspaper, paper towel and a plastic bag DarknessFalls229#2286: So pretty badly DarknessFalls229#2286: My friends 290 was shipped much better Jamie.Cullen#8363: Then you should keep trying Jamie.Cullen#8363: That's fucking ridiculous JustinXenyx#8854: Thats literally the kinda shit you don't really ship PC parts in JustinXenyx#8854: well, the newspaper is fine, but paper towels and plastic bags? gtfo DarknessFalls229#2286: Not crumpled newspaper btw DarknessFalls229#2286: Liked a full newspaper wrapped around it DarknessFalls229#2286: Btw seller also says that sending is my own risk and that i _should_ have picked it up myself JustinXenyx#8854: Improper packaging is the sellers fault
JustinXenyx#8854: Not like you wrapped it in paper towels n shit and shipped it off resulting in board-level damage DarknessFalls229#2286: Besides, i did not find any of the parts that broke off Jamie.Cullen#8363: Then she is lying And knew it was broken DarknessFalls229#2286: I dont think she actually knew it was broken, but i do strongly feel that she is responsible for a refund for a DOA card Jamie.Cullen#8363: Well how did you not find the parts that have fallen off and how do you explain the scratches DarknessFalls229#2286: I searched my carpet where i opened the package, and idk where all the scratched and shit came from, im guessing it came from before shipping, cause the other card is in mint condition flyingsky#4474: help me my pc got black screen with working gpu DarknessFalls229#2286: tell us exactly what you did DarknessFalls229#2286: have you tried the onboard graphics flyingsky#4474: Yes flyingsky#4474: The oneboard gpu works and the gpu itself works but i tried entoher gpu and it dident work eather.

It doesn't need to be fancy, just needs 2 display outputs and should be under 50€. Retailers like Amazon and Ebay would be preferred, but other german retailers also are fine DarknessFalls229#2286: @JustinXenyx if it just needs 2 display outputs any SFF semi-modern GPU should be fine right? MythologicalZ#3752: R7 250 off eBay? MythologicalZ#3752: Shits dirt cheap
JustinXenyx#8854: @DarknessFalls229 essentially, yeah JustinXenyx#8854: @MythologicalZ i don't see the SFF variant often and if i do its pretty expensive relative to the non-SFF counterpart MythologicalZ#3752: Oof flyingsky#4474: @Alcyone it dintent work flyingsky#4474: O go bios and i enabled the power pci flyingsky#4474: @Tech Helper JustinXenyx#8854: Can you like, stop pinging us randomly without a question?

JustinXenyx#8854: nah, just display JustinXenyx#8854: it needs 2 outputs, what connectors they are is not that relevant TheGeekster#8508: quadro cards are pretty good for that, and they're pretty cheap TheGeekster#8508: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NVIDIA-PNY-NVS-310-1GB-PCI-Express-Dual-Display-Port-Low-Profile-Graphics-Card/192877860188?hash=item2ce86a955c:g:~34AAOSwjg1b2cau TheGeekster#8508: Something along those lines, dual displayport, reliable, good driver support, they'll keep running for a long time JustinXenyx#8854: doesn't look bad at all and i directly found a listing with a similar price TheGeekster#8508: Aye, they work well

Jam#0384: I’d imagine that diamond does not improve that Jam#0384: So no russ_the_b#5525: i think they do have diamond powder tho Evvy#0001: diamond has roughly 5 times the thermal conductivity of silver, so Evvy#0001: it'd be cool c: Rio#1000: yes they have diamond powder in ic diamond Evvy#0001: hot
JustinXenyx#8854: @Evvy They use purified synthetic diamonds. Not real diamonds, but close enough ones to improve thermal conductivity wapted#6788: well it is 'real' diamond wapted#6788: obviously not the ones they dig out the ground tho lol JustinXenyx#8854: @wapted I mean real diamonds as in the jewelry kind wapted#6788: aye, well its still basically the exact same structure of carbon atoms etc Jamie.Cullen#8363: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/568784784197943297/JPEG_20190419_140613.jpg Jamie.Cullen#8363: What OS should I run if I want to make a basic file server? Jamie.Cullen#8363: Specs are: HP motherboard from a HP compaq dc330m Pentuim 4 @ 2.5Ghz I think 2.5GB DDR RAM 500GB Segate drive I pulled from an old laptop Jamie.Cullen#8363: Took out the IDE cables, old noisy fans and 3.5 inch drives to cut down on noise Jamie.Cullen#8363: The only fan is the stock Heatsink Jamie.Cullen#8363: I was thinking of using Debian or Ubuntu server
JustinXenyx#8854: I personally wouldnt use it as a basic file server JustinXenyx#8854: 1. Its inefficient as fuck JustinXenyx#8854: 2. it gets hot as fuck JustinXenyx#8854: 3. that psu looks like a bomb Jamie.Cullen#8363: You think that's a bomb you'd wanna see what the original PSU was :Noo: Jamie.Cullen#8363: The psu isn't half bad Jamie.Cullen#8363: It gets the job done and fits in the case Rio#1000: @JustinXenyx psu is fine Rio#1000: CWT make plenty of good units Jamie.Cullen#8363: Exactly Jamie.Cullen#8363: Phills computer lab uses them Rio#1000: for example corsair rmi Rio#1000: And some HX units Jamie.Cullen#8363: They're not great but not bad for cwt JustinXenyx#8854: That still leaves the inefficiency and the heat output on the table
Jamie.Cullen#8363: It's running fairly OK for now Jamie.Cullen#8363: Just installing Ubuntu server to see how it goes Jamie.Cullen#8363: I will upgrade it over the summer I just need it to do tests and stuff Jamie.Cullen#8363: Learn and teach myself how it works wiryfuture🦀#1706: Hi there, wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm wondering if anyone knows of a linux distro that has a chance of working on an i486 wiryfuture🦀#1706: all of the ones I've tried so far haven't been able to install wiryfuture🦀#1706: (even though their kernel supports i486) Jamie.Cullen#8363: As in a DX486 machine? Jamie.Cullen#8363: Man I wouldn't have a clue Jamie.Cullen#8363: Why not just run old school windows for the nostalgia or something wiryfuture🦀#1706: "designed for xp" yeah sure Jamie.Cullen#8363: A 486 is for like Win 95 wiryfuture🦀#1706: gimme a sec I need to find the cpu lol wiryfuture🦀#1706: man I have no clue
wiryfuture🦀#1706: it is meant to be x86 but it needs i486 OS(s) wiryfuture🦀#1706: https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/intel/atom/n270 Jamie.Cullen#8363: Ohhh it's an atom. Jamie.Cullen#8363: Man what the fuck why haven't your Linux installs Jamie.Cullen#8363: Worked Jamie.Cullen#8363: What are you using to burn them wiryfuture🦀#1706: I tried using Lili and rufus and neither worked as it was a usb not a cd and the OS expected a cd wiryfuture🦀#1706: (slackware btw) wiryfuture🦀#1706: (that was my first choice) Jamie.Cullen#8363: Use Debian wiryfuture🦀#1706: I though debian didn't support i486s? Jamie.Cullen#8363: Man it's a X86 based system Jamie.Cullen#8363: Are you using the right image for your CPU wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm not aware of there being cpu only (operating) systems, only architecture Jamie.Cullen#8363: Like are you using a X86 based image or ISO
Jamie.Cullen#8363: That could be why wiryfuture🦀#1706: iso wiryfuture🦀#1706: I always use isos not images Jamie.Cullen#8363: OK Jamie.Cullen#8363: Well I presume you're using a netbook? wiryfuture🦀#1706: Yea wiryfuture🦀#1706: I don't think you can get that atom anywhere else wiryfuture🦀#1706: it's an advent 4211-b wiryfuture🦀#1706: (and for your information, I did not make the decision to choose it) JustinXenyx#8854: where is the difference between a image and a iso? JustinXenyx#8854: from what i know, a iso is a disk image, which confuses me as to what the differences might be Rio#1000: This is an image https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/568813203191234561/s-l400.jpg JustinXenyx#8854: oh ffs, you funny man :Hahahahaha: SuSSudio#2688: :Xdxdxd: TheGeekster#8508: @Jamie.Cullen FreeNAS, don't use ZFS just XFS or something, then you don't need the overkill specs, unraid maybe, there's a lot of different NAS systems out there that make it easier by providing a gui, ubuntu itself will just be painful
TheGeekster#8508: disk image like a .img is a sector by sector copy of a disk, normally floppy, USB, HDD etc, that can be written to other disks, like a snapshot, ISO is a image of a DVD/CD, or at least can act like one TheGeekster#8508: iso's are easier to work with anyway @JustinXenyx but you can't use them to burn to flash/HDD TheGeekster#8508: afaik wiryfuture🦀#1706: I just tried to install debian and I don't think I can wiryfuture🦀#1706: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/568824129931706395/JPEG_20190419_164358.jpg TheGeekster#8508: are you using a DVD? wiryfuture🦀#1706: usb with an iso TheGeekster#8508: you haven't set it up right, using rufus? TheGeekster#8508: or something like that? wiryfuture🦀#1706: I used Lili wiryfuture🦀#1706: like I always do lol Jamie.Cullen#8363: Try using rufus wiryfuture🦀#1706: k wiryfuture🦀#1706: it has gotten further that's for sure wiryfuture🦀#1706: It's actually installing now
wiryfuture🦀#1706: uh oh wiryfuture🦀#1706: "The failing step is: Install the base system." Jamie.Cullen#8363: Hmm Jamie.Cullen#8363: Try using Rufus and I would try a distro like Xubuntu Deinsti#5907: Debian is really unstable with a usb Deinsti#5907: If you have to use Debian, I would recommend burning a DVD stickys.party.hat 《^_^》#2076: I am having a very fucking annoying issue MythologicalZ#3752: Stinky FX man stickys.party.hat 《^_^》#2076: so my pc rebooted last night while I was asleep and now my sound card and my onboard sound are the only playback devices even after unplugging and replugging all my displays I still cannot see my tv speakers in the playback devices and it says none are connected and it is very annoying Deleted User#0000: any help ? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/568893206868131840/image0.jpg Deleted User#0000: picking up my hard drive and disk drive though ?

Rio#1000: fucks he using a secondary card for? sajanator3#3333: He gonna be running Linux Rio#1000: retard JustinXenyx#8854: Then i have another question, what does he need 2 graphics cards for? @sajanator3 sajanator3#3333: Well I mean he's gonna start off dual booting sajanator3#3333: But in case he wants to use a gpu for a VM sajanator3#3333: later
JustinXenyx#8854: "but in case" Stop the "but in case" planning and plan out a rig with the stuff he actually is gonna use JustinXenyx#8854: because "but in case" usually translates to "i don't need it, but i want it" from my experience sajanator3#3333: Well he's not getting another one atm sajanator3#3333: But I was curious if the PSU could handle it JustinXenyx#8854: i'd say it gets edgy JustinXenyx#8854: The last time i checked the Fury and the R9 290 roughly used 300W each at stock clocks and full load Tinybox#9112: I5 2nd gen rig + rx 480 For 155 euros. Easy flip? JustinXenyx#8854: definitely easy flip JustinXenyx#8854: the 480 is like 80-90€ on its own on local markets Tinybox#9112: The 2nd gen rig about 80,it's a custom 2nd gen rig btw Tinybox#9112: If I remember.. JustinXenyx#8854: how custom? can ya send a pic? Tinybox#9112: Can't send a pic ):
Essentially some Gigabyte low endish h61 motherboard.. Probably crappy case, no pic of case fully. Some green 1600mhz ram..dual channel Shit cable management.. Tinybox#9112: psu probably ok Rio#1000: whats stopping you from sending a pic? Tinybox#9112: Not at home, and I'm on mobile Jamie.Cullen#8363: Need help CPU fan isn't working properly Jamie.Cullen#8363: Cleaned it and put it in a old build because it's a lot quieter than the heap of shit HP had in there Jamie.Cullen#8363: Now it spins up at startup then goes off any suggestions Jamie.Cullen#8363: @Tech Helper Deinsti#5907: @Jamie.Cullen Might be because the CPU is not hot enough for it to spin up TheGeekster#8508: if it works, don't diddle it, if it starts up and then switches off straight away, generally something is shutting down to protect itself, either a short circuit, something not plugged in etc Jamie.Cullen#8363: Hmm Jamie.Cullen#8363: But it's spinning at the start when the PC starts up
Jamie.Cullen#8363: Maybe it's the processor Jamie.Cullen#8363: The PC runs fine just obviously needs the airflow Jamie.Cullen#8363: It's just a throwaway P4 TheGeekster#8508: ohhhhhhhh, right, pc keeps running, but cpu fan stops spinning, right Jamie.Cullen#8363: Yes Jamie.Cullen#8363: Sorry should have said TheGeekster#8508: plug another fan into the same header, see what happens?

Abe.#3344: My PC isn't booting and I'm scared Jamie.Cullen#8363: When was it last booting Abe.#3344: It happened this morning too and I fixed, but I don't remember what I did Jamie.Cullen#8363: Right?? Abe.#3344: I believe there is power Jamie.Cullen#8363: And when you press the power button it does what? Abe.#3344: Nothing Jamie.Cullen#8363: Fans spin or anything? Abe.#3344: Nothing Abe.#3344: I can charge my phone tho Jamie.Cullen#8363: Right Jamie.Cullen#8363: That's a bit odd Abe.#3344: Through the USB C in the back of the mobo Jamie.Cullen#8363: So you are getting power Jamie.Cullen#8363: Maybe there's a short in the wiring for the power button
Jamie.Cullen#8363: Have you tried the old turn it on with a screwdriver method Abe.#3344: Nope Abe.#3344: I was looking for a jumper Abe.#3344: Can't find mine though Jamie.Cullen#8363: Just use a screwdriver see if that gives it power! Abe.#3344: Where do I shove my screw driver? Jamie.Cullen#8363: You don't shove it anywhere Abe.#3344: What pins do I bridge? Jamie.Cullen#8363: It'll be on the mb JustinXenyx#8854: the power button pins @Abe. Abe.#3344: Kk Jamie.Cullen#8363: Try that and see if that works Abe.#3344: @JustinXenyx @Jamie.Cullen Nothing happened
Abe.#3344: I literally can afford to replace anything in this PC, so if anything is dead, it's the end of my PC Gaming career Jamie.Cullen#8363: Why Abe.#3344: Cuz no PC lol Jamie.Cullen#8363: Well let's try sort the problem JustinXenyx#8854: i think you wanted to type "can't afford" @Abe. Jamie.Cullen#8363: Oh Abe.#3344: Oh shoot Abe.#3344: Yeah Abe.#3344: I meant can't Abe.#3344: Should I try unplugging the GPU? Abe.#3344: I have a 2200g, so I have integrated Kurtisdede#4927: It literally doesnt turn on at all right? Kurtisdede#4927: Doubt that'd help but its worth a try Abe.#3344: Yeah, no fan spin Evvy#0001: what mobo yagot
Kurtisdede#4927: Also what PSU you got? What wattage? Kurtisdede#4927: Nvm u said its getting power thru the usb-c Evvy#0001: if you say asrock z97 anniversary i'll eat your ass Kurtisdede#4927: still tho what psu Abe.#3344: I have an Asrock B450m Pro4 Abe.#3344: And a CX750 Evvy#0001: big oof Kurtisdede#4927: Tbh I just think either the CPU or the mobo is dead Kurtisdede#4927: if its causing a non boot Abe.#3344: But it worked this morning Abe.#3344: It's just not turning on now Kurtisdede#4927: Yeah and it broke I guess? :p Evvy#0001: my asrock anniversary board had some dumbass issue with the voltage regulator that made it just stop working randomly unless you pressed the power button like 30 times Kurtisdede#4927: Did u shut it off correctly the last time it was turned on?
TheFifthAce#4128: Have you tried remounting everythin TheFifthAce#4128: maybe a cable came loose Abe.#3344: I mean, I think the mobo is still under warranty, and the CPU, but I can't get a new power supply if it's broken cuz I got it second hand from this Discord and I have literally no money Kurtisdede#4927: I doubt the psu is the problem Abe.#3344: I long pressed the power button this morning Kurtisdede#4927: Yeah try remounting everything Kurtisdede#4927: If that doesnt work its either the mobo or the cpu Evvy#0001: long press didn't matter, it was just the number of presses for me Kurtisdede#4927: Got a spare AM4 cpu to try? Abe.#3344: Nope Evvy#0001: It also worked if I left it unplugged for like a day and then tried it again Abe.#3344: And if I take off the CPU fan, I don't have any thermal paste to re mount it Abe.#3344: And if it was the mobo would I be getting power to my phone? Kurtisdede#4927: It depends Kurtisdede#4927: CPUs rarely die so if i were you I'd get that mobo replaced... if that doesnt work then get the CPU replaced, I mean I cant think of anything else
Kurtisdede#4927: You havent played with voltages and shit right? Kurtisdede#4927: In the BIOS Abe.#3344: Nah, I've overclocked, but voltages are all stock Kurtisdede#4927: Did you left voltage on auto? Kurtisdede#4927: leave* Abe.#3344: No, I think it's at 1.35 Abe.#3344: Stock voltage Evvy#0001: I could still charge my phone and power like 7 rgb shits when my mobo was dead Kurtisdede#4927: 1.35 is not stock tho Abe.#3344: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Kurtisdede#4927: Stock is 1.1v Abe.#3344: Haven't changed any voltage settings Kurtisdede#4927: Still I dont think thats what killed it Abe.#3344: I hope it's not Kurtisdede#4927: Yeah if you dont change voltage and just up the multiplier most mobos will also up the voltage to compensate
Kurtisdede#4927: What mhz is it running at? Kurtisdede#4927: Ghz? Kurtisdede#4927: was it running at? Kurtisdede#4927: 1st gen ryzen can take like 1.4V ez no problem so Kurtisdede#4927: How much did you oc it? Abe.#3344: Uh, I have XMP on and I think the CPU was at stock speeds, because I reset it a few days ago Kurtisdede#4927: oh wait that reminds me Kurtisdede#4927: how many ram sticks do you have TheFifthAce#4128: 1.35v isnt enough to kil Kurtisdede#4927: yeah it isnt Kurtisdede#4927: how many ram sticks do you have man Abe.#3344: 2 Abe.#3344: 4gb Kurtisdede#4927: ok take one out maybe one's dead or something Abe.#3344: 1.35 at 3200
Kurtisdede#4927: and if it doesnt work take the other out :p Abe.#3344: Yeah but it would still boot right? Kurtisdede#4927: nope Abe.#3344: Oh ok, lemme try that Kurtisdede#4927: lmk what happens Abe.#3344: @Kurtisdede nothing happened Abe.#3344: Took both out Kurtisdede#4927: well rip that option then Kurtisdede#4927: :/ Kurtisdede#4927: then its gotta be the mobo or cpu Abe.#3344: this is actually the worst Kurtisdede#4927: you got the 4(or 8) pin cpu cable connected right Abe.#3344: Yeah Abe.#3344: It wasn't working this morning Abe.#3344: But I shakes a few things and it worked
Abe.#3344: And now it isn't working again Kurtisdede#4927: hmm Kurtisdede#4927: maybe some cables are loose Kurtisdede#4927: maybe the 24pin motherboard cable isn't making full contact Abe.#3344: I pushed in everything Kurtisdede#4927: maybe the cpu isn't inserted %100(i mean it couldnt be but its the only think i caan think of) Kurtisdede#4927: that sucks Kurtisdede#4927: maybe you should ask the folks at tomshardware and tell what you did to try fix it Kurtisdede#4927: they know better than i do Evvy#0001: i dont think a cpu being somewhat out is an issue Kurtisdede#4927: yeah same Evvy#0001: or if it is, it'd need a mobo replacement anyways lol Abe.#3344: This is actually the worst Kurtisdede#4927: you mentioned you had warranty for both the cpu and mobo tho Kurtisdede#4927: so get one replaced if that doesnt fix it, replace the other - also buy some more thermal paste

Jamie.Cullen#8363: That's what I had originally thought man, glad to help flyingsky#4474: Motherboard won't start with power button - only with Green and Black cable flyingsky#4474: my Jamie.Cullen#8363: Need more context my dude Bwenfwake#6869: Hey lads, Titan black or R9 390? Bwenfwake#6869: (Which one should I go for) Bwenfwake#6869: I'm thinking the 390 Jamie.Cullen#8363: Whichever you think will yeild you the most value in the long run in terms of driver support? Bwenfwake#6869: That'd be hard to say then haha, they're both of a similar age I guess TheFifthAce#4128: rx 480 Bwenfwake#6869: Nahhhh Bwenfwake#6869: Dislike the newish stuff JustinXenyx#8854: Titan is already fucked JustinXenyx#8854: Keplers drivers are shit and unoptimized JustinXenyx#8854: You'd really be better off with a RX4/580
Bwenfwake#6869: Ripeth Jamie.Cullen#8363: Then I guess AMD fine wine tech will have to save you if you go R9 390 route Jamie.Cullen#8363: RX 480 is cheap enough though no? Bwenfwake#6869: They're about the same price as 580's still Bwenfwake#6869: Which is annoying Jamie.Cullen#8363: Where you based? JustinXenyx#8854: I wouldn't expect them to drop in price JustinXenyx#8854: UK Bwenfwake#6869: UK JustinXenyx#8854: no one is buying them because the RX 4/580's are a much better deal JustinXenyx#8854: which usually means prices come down, but no one really wants to sell their R9 390's Bwenfwake#6869: Oh, nah I meant the 480's. They're about the same price as 580's Bwenfwake#6869: Even on used market Bwenfwake#6869: 390's I can find fairly cheap tbh Jamie.Cullen#8363: Anyone here own a surface device?
JustinXenyx#8854: why? Jamie.Cullen#8363: Having issues with mine Jamie.Cullen#8363: Surface pro 3 Jamie.Cullen#8363: Won't boot properly I have to restart it a couple of times for it to properly boot JustinXenyx#8854: sounds odd, ever got the battery replaced or something? Jamie.Cullen#8363: Nope JustinXenyx#8854: thats probably more of a negative than a positive lol JustinXenyx#8854: it could be that the surface isn't liking something about the battery, like maybe its not charging right or something Jamie.Cullen#8363: It seems to be ok battery wise Jamie.Cullen#8363: @JustinXenyx the touch screen on it is broken if that helps?

JustinXenyx#8854: nononononono thatubuntuguy#5914: No no no no no no JustinXenyx#8854: if the cpu doesn't heat up, that may be a sign that the motherboard isnt turning on properly thatubuntuguy#5914: ^ JustinXenyx#8854: or the cpu isn't getting proper power thatubuntuguy#5914: ^ flyingsky#4474: ok so that the problem ? Jam#0384: Make sure the power connectors are plugged in all the way JustinXenyx#8854: Could be.

HappySlappyFace#0441: or whatever its called HappySlappyFace#0441: where the case has to be closed JustinXenyx#8854: he said its worked before JustinXenyx#8854: @flyingsky When was the board last working? flyingsky#4474: for like 1 day ago HappySlappyFace#0441: was it in a case HappySlappyFace#0441: or anything different flyingsky#4474: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/569653195823906816/IMG_20190422_003757.jpg HappySlappyFace#0441: oh
HappySlappyFace#0441: this is interesting HappySlappyFace#0441: is that the case it came in? flyingsky#4474: yos HappySlappyFace#0441: try putting it back in flyingsky#4474: why HappySlappyFace#0441: some motherboards (mostly oem ones) have to have a pin shorted via a switch that is closed when the case is closed HappySlappyFace#0441: or you could j ust try to find that pin HappySlappyFace#0441: it may be called case or something like that flyingsky#4474: the on off switch does not work HappySlappyFace#0441: no not that HappySlappyFace#0441: its a pin header like the fan flyingsky#4474: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/569653722028965889/IMG_20190422_004014.jpg HappySlappyFace#0441: its purpose is to tell the pc to turn on if the case is closed HappySlappyFace#0441: or allow it to turn on i mean HappySlappyFace#0441: no
HappySlappyFace#0441: that wont help HappySlappyFace#0441: wait a sec HappySlappyFace#0441: are you sure that green is ps on? flyingsky#4474: green and black HappySlappyFace#0441: thats not ATX connector bro HappySlappyFace#0441: it could be a different thing flyingsky#4474: lol it worked HappySlappyFace#0441: when flyingsky#4474: when i was tested that flyingsky#4474: but after one day HappySlappyFace#0441: i guess you got lucky or they made green the standard flyingsky#4474: ok HappySlappyFace#0441: as i said flyingsky#4474: but black scren flyingsky#4474: and no peeep

JustinXenyx#8854: not really, its more of a hardware than a cable issue
scelli#0001: oh ok. will a pcie sound card help? HappySlappyFace#0441: @scelli try making a metal shield? scelli#0001: im worried about shorting something out and idk where the audio driver is on the motherboard HappySlappyFace#0441: what mobo HappySlappyFace#0441: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/569838256795942912/unknown.png HappySlappyFace#0441: you can see on this mobo its clearly seperated@scelli scelli#0001: MSI B350 PC MATE Rio#1000: nice pc, mate HappySlappyFace#0441: die rio Rio#1000: the msi pc mate is the most memable lineup scelli#0001: ?

HappySlappyFace#0441: make a template for best results HappySlappyFace#0441: not really if you tape it well HappySlappyFace#0441: you only need the metal surface on the gpu side scelli#0001: this is the exact gpu i have https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/569839160211275807/14-487-261-S99.png HappySlappyFace#0441: so you can put tape on the mobo side HappySlappyFace#0441: hmm JustinXenyx#8854: also, putting aluminium foil on the gpu is fucking dumb @HappySlappyFace JustinXenyx#8854: if it touches the wrong prongs it will short out something scelli#0001: well i thought it was a strange way of doing things too scelli#0001: ikr HappySlappyFace#0441: its one way of doing it HappySlappyFace#0441: 😉 scelli#0001: also if i put on v sync it goes down a bit scelli#0001: i think its because its putting less stress on the gpu scelli#0001: because its not being pushed to make so many frames
HappySlappyFace#0441: yes HappySlappyFace#0441: you are right HappySlappyFace#0441: the gpu core will need less power HappySlappyFace#0441: and thus reducing the power going thro the coils scelli#0001: and therefore less vrm whine scelli#0001: yup HappySlappyFace#0441: uhh no HappySlappyFace#0441: its COIL whine HappySlappyFace#0441: not vrm whine scelli#0001: vrm modules have coils in them scelli#0001: trust me i do electronics HappySlappyFace#0441: it seems like you dont so HappySlappyFace#0441: and no HappySlappyFace#0441: everyone knows its the coils HappySlappyFace#0441: even google says so

SuSSudio#2688: makes sense JustinXenyx#8854: @scelli pretty much, yep scelli#0001: ok i thought it was just the ***c o i l s*** HappySlappyFace#0441: ah i thought vrm ment the mosfets where called vrm HappySlappyFace#0441: yes TheFifthAce#4128: vrm is stored in the balls scelli#0001: no pee is scelli#0001: this is off topic SuSSudio#2688: so where does the currents going in first? the MOSFETs or the chokes? JustinXenyx#8854: This is the simplest schematic of a VRM i found, it explains it pretty well https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/569841933552451592/500px-vrm_circut.png wapted#6788: mosfets, then inductors (chokes) then smoothed with capacitors
SuSSudio#2688: mmm got it scelli#0001: ok and ik HappySlappyFace#0441: pwm controller gives a freq to the mosfets scelli#0001: but i didnt know that vrm reffered to all the power delivery components HappySlappyFace#0441: which turn on and off fast to the pwm signal HappySlappyFace#0441: then it gets smoothed a bit with the chokes scelli#0001: and to the fans? @HappySlappyFace HappySlappyFace#0441: and then the capacitors HappySlappyFace#0441: no HappySlappyFace#0441: https://www.ekwb.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/04-1.jpg HappySlappyFace#0441: cpu according to this SuSSudio#2688: So the PWM regulates all the power delivery? HappySlappyFace#0441: well yes SuSSudio#2688: i mean, as the brain of those 3 components HappySlappyFace#0441: yse it is
HappySlappyFace#0441: well its not the brain HappySlappyFace#0441: it still needs feedback HappySlappyFace#0441: and input TheFifthAce#4128: its not the brain its the construction worker given orders SuSSudio#2688: from what component does it needs to be active? HappySlappyFace#0441: wdym HappySlappyFace#0441: the pwm needs to be on all the time JustinXenyx#8854: Usually they are referred to as Controllers, but they're called "PWM Regulators" according to many schematics of them HappySlappyFace#0441: or cpu will not get power SuSSudio#2688: which component feeds the pwm module? HappySlappyFace#0441: cpu HappySlappyFace#0441: or bios SuSSudio#2688: mmm HappySlappyFace#0441: something that can read the cpu usage JustinXenyx#8854: they communicate with the CPU
SuSSudio#2688: i see.. flyingsky#4474: @HappySlappyFace flyingsky#4474: dude it was the cpu Jam#0384: I told u to test the cpu Jam#0384: I was right for once flyingsky#4474: or wait its not it was the cooler flyingsky#4474: cpu cooler flyingsky#4474: when I screw hard, it does not boot but a little loose then they work flyingsky#4474: @JustinXenyx JustinXenyx#8854: i'd say you're screwing on the cooler to hard flyingsky#4474: yes Kurtisdede#4927: @Abe. Lmao, glad to hear that flyingsky#4474: sscrewing hard on cpu cooler no booot Jam#0384: Lucky too, that is one of the few things that CAN kill the cpu
Jam#0384: glad it still works SuSSudio#2688: Stupid question, is running a PC with a car battery safe? Jam#0384: I'd assume no, but I've never tried it. SuSSudio#2688: & no i'm not gonna direct fuse the PSU cable to the battery's contact, the idea is fusing the power hub to the battery & then plug the psu cable from it. JustinXenyx#8854: with a way to get the voltage to proper levels it should work SuSSudio#2688: Hmm, i think 24v battery would be safe? JustinXenyx#8854: I mean that you need to get the voltage to 110/220v SuSSudio#2688: Oh well... SuSSudio#2688: Might need an alternator for that SuSSudio#2688: Then again scraping the idea of purely running on battery power... JustinXenyx#8854: No, you need a inverter for that JustinXenyx#8854: because the voltage the battery puts out is DC and you need AC voltage for your computer powersupply SuSSudio#2688: Just discussed with my dad, and exactly what you said..
