TheGeekster#8508: Your ram hasn't died, that's just how much is free, that can vary wildly depending what you're doing on the computer, you have 6GB still @Impish
TheGeekster#8508: reboot the system, close applications, and you'll have more free memory
Impish#5173: okay fixed my gpu and its back to normal when i reseted my pc \ https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611170744629592065/unknown.png
Impish#5173: same with cpu
Impish#5173: my ram is now on 2.7G when all apps closed @TheGeekster
TheGeekster#8508: You need to look at the details in task manager, to see what is actually running on your computer, that's taking up the ram
TheGeekster#8508: are you sure "honeyminer" or something like that isn't open in the background?
Impish#5173: nope its not runing
Impish#5173: i uninstalled it
Impish#5173: oh when i did that benchmark i had nothing running
Impish#5173: but this is it right now with chrome and discord open
Impish#5173: i cant make a screenshot...il make a gif
Impish#5173: i ligit cant task maneger is like on the top
Impish#5173: i cant
TheGeekster#8508: if you open task manager, on the processes tab, press alt & prtscr and you can paste directly here |
TheGeekster#8508: sort by memory as well, just to make it easier

mi³nshel#9774: any1 know of a simple/easy to use video editor
i just wanna put several short clips together and put text on them
TheGeekster#8508: openshot is a pretty good free video editor
TheGeekster#8508: @mi³nshel
Tinybox#9112: OKAY I CAN'T FIND THESE GPU SCREWS ANYYWHERE..
Can I just take a standard screw put a spring on it, and then call it a day?
TheGeekster#8508: in theory, if the thread and length are the same as the old screw then yeah, just don't over tighten it
Tinybox#9112: Well you see, the coolers screw hole is slightly broke, but not broke all the way (the standard screws just spin spin)
So by standard the screws don't go in all the way.
SO I thought I could just get something longer than standard, screw in all the way to the "OK" parts. @TheGeekster |
TheGeekster#8508: Just don't over tighten it and any screw that has the same thread pattern *should* work, but it might not so, careful and just keep an eye on it
Tinybox#9112: Alright, although I might need to break in my drill anyway
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611196123838939154/IMG_20190814_155358.jpg
Tinybox#9112: Some of these are in extremely horrible condition https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611197304950620228/IMG_20190814_155855.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: @mi³nshel Davinci Resolve is also damn good for free video editing software
TheGeekster#8508: At that point, i'd look at buying a replacement heatsink or a faulty GPU and swap it over @Tinybox
Tinybox#9112: I thought so too,
@TheGeekster
The shafts are basically non existent, I could use my threaded drill head, or whatever its called to make it deeper..
But will my drill even be able to pierce through that aliminium, when the drill head is extra fine?
Let's say I manage to do that..Will contact still be "good?"
Let's say I say, screw the threaded drill head, ill just glue a shaft onto it..with some strong as heck glue..
If I did that, will the glue be able to hold the fluctuating temps?
Tinybox#9112: It's quite clear, the best option is just to say screw it, and get a new replacement cooler.
TheGeekster#8508: You're going down the rabbit hole too far capn', replacement time |
Tinybox#9112: Although it kinda sucks, as one of my gpus, only has one screw that's making this trouble.
Tinybox#9112: I already made 80 euros profit on the R9 290s though..
Tinybox#9112: So I already made back my money in profit
Tinybox#9112: But it just bothers me that this one that I could sell, HAS ONE SCREW HOLE MAKING THIS TROUBLE.
Tinybox#9112: And the one I decided I'd keep, ALL THE screw holes make this trouble
Tinybox#9112: although personally I'm quite confident with saving the one, where only one single screw hole makes this trouble.
TheGeekster#8508: don't forget to take into account the amount of *time* things take to do, time isn't free, the hastle with this GPU has stopped you buying and fixing other easier to fix gpu's
TheGeekster#8508: at work, with all but the most basic of problems, we just reinstall windows, it saves time compared to debugging
wiryfuture🦀#1706: Hi, what's the easiest and cheapest way for me to clone one m.2 drive to another? I have a computer available but it onky has 1 m.2 slot, so I'd have to use a m.2 to sata adaptor. Is there usb software I can boot from to copy everything on one drive to another?
It's because reinstalling windows takes fucking forever onto another drive, and I want to move from a 120GB m.2 to 500GB
JustinXenyx#8854: define m.2 @wiryfuture🦀
JustinXenyx#8854: m.2 drives can be a lot of things
wiryfuture🦀#1706: uhhh
wiryfuture🦀#1706: m.2 nvme
wiryfuture🦀#1706: ssds |
JustinXenyx#8854: then you can't use an m.2 to sata adapter
JustinXenyx#8854: NVMe needs PCIe not sata
wiryfuture🦀#1706: k
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'll need to take a closer look when I know more about that first ssd
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx hey, if you put it an M.2 PCIe drive into an M.2>sata.
The NVMe drive would just run at sata speeds?
Tinybox#9112: Right?
TheGeekster#8508: nope
JustinXenyx#8854: Didn't i just say that it doesn't work?
TheGeekster#8508: NVME and msata are *different*
JustinXenyx#8854: You can't run a SSD that runs via PCIe over SATA
Tinybox#9112: ah ok
Tinybox#9112: So it literally isn't possible to use a "universal m.2 connector to sata"
got it
JustinXenyx#8854: No, that's wrong |
JustinXenyx#8854: You just can't adapt PCIe SSDs to SATA
JustinXenyx#8854: SATA m.2 SSDs are gonna run fine on those adapters
Tinybox#9112: alright got it
Tinybox#9112: With a PCIe M.2 SSD, using an adapter like this isn't possible
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611272993355595786/iu.png
JustinXenyx#8854: Correct
Tinybox#9112: thanks
Tinybox#9112: @wiryfuture🦀
Probably the worst way ever.
So moving data from a shit lga 775 board to another PC, LGA 775 board had all sata ports occupied, and it "wasn't" possible to take one of the drives out...
So, I took out some external HDD (a lil internal to external "dock?" would have worked too I guess), moved the data I needed away from the lga 775 pc, and to the "other" PC (=backup PC)
--
Let's say you got some cheap 120gb HDD, or just buy some 500/120gb dirt cheap somewhere..along with a one of those dock thingies I mentioned (to usb), move all the data you need to hdd,
once you did that, take out your current M.2, slap in the new M.2, plug in the dock with HDD/external HDD again, and then move the data to the new M.2.
Essentially using an external HDD/"dock" as the middle man. |
Tinybox#9112: It's a pretty cheap option, although of course this is all assuming you got some other drive to host something like ubuntu, windows, insert other linux "versions", etc etc.
Installing many linux OSes don't take long ay?
Or a USB to host an operating system d:
Tinybox#9112: (for my area, directly buying an external hdd, would cost me like 3 euros)
wiryfuture🦀#1706: It's just because I'm lazy and reinstalling all of my settings and apply settings takes forever >_<
wiryfuture🦀#1706: one sec, I'ma have a look what ssd I have in here
wiryfuture🦀#1706: can someone explain to me the difference between the three crystaldisk versions
wiryfuture🦀#1706: wHAT https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611276859115700293/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: its just a design thing
wiryfuture🦀#1706: okay
Tinybox#9112: just standard edition
Tinybox#9112: unless you like anime
wiryfuture🦀#1706: ....
wiryfuture🦀#1706: did I just hear anime
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm confused |
Tinybox#9112: anime design
Tinybox#9112: the crystaldisk boi is a big weeb
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I have a SATA m.2 drive in my ultrabook, but the spec sheet says it has a m.2 PCIe slot
JustinXenyx#8854: m.2 slots work with a lot of stuff
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I've got this machine: http://www.toshiba.co.uk/laptops/portege/portege-x20w-e/portege-x20w-e-13j/#
But I have this SSD in it:
https://skinflint.co.uk/samsung-ssd-pm871b-128gb-mznln128hahq-00000-a1680862.html
wiryfuture🦀#1706: can I stick a samsung 970 evo plus in there and expect it to work?
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah
wiryfuture🦀#1706: k
wiryfuture🦀#1706: So PCIe m.2 drive and sata m.2 drive^_^
TheGeekster#8508: no i don't think you can
TheGeekster#8508: "M.2 PCIe 256 GB" it does not have a sata m.2 bay, only a pcie bay @wiryfuture🦀
JustinXenyx#8854: He has a Sata M.2 in it @TheGeekster |
JustinXenyx#8854: i'm guessing there are 2 slots though, one sata m.2 and a pcie m.2
TheGeekster#8508: well... he can't...? unless the specs on the website are wrong
TheGeekster#8508: it's a thin laptop, i really doubt it has two bays
TheGeekster#8508: what? that's... never mind 🤔 that's just fucked up descriptions i guess
JustinXenyx#8854: ok lol no it never had 2 m.2 slots
JustinXenyx#8854: this is a pick of the X20W with the back taken off https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611283032468357140/Toshiba_X20W_26.png
JustinXenyx#8854: on the upper left you'll see the location of where an m.2 slot would be
JustinXenyx#8854: but M.2 can do multiple things with one slot, so i figure that they're using sata m.2 ssds with lower end configs and PCIe m.2 ssds with higher end configs
wiryfuture🦀#1706: Mine is on the back of the mobo
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I think it's behind those three lil units above the cpu
BigPierogi#3368: i htink i can add a m.2 ssd
BigPierogi#3368: where the antena port is for a lte card
wiryfuture🦀#1706: mine doesn't have LTE
BigPierogi#3368: neither does mine
BigPierogi#3368: i can add a card |
wiryfuture🦀#1706: interesting
BigPierogi#3368: but im probably not gonna
BigPierogi#3368: because i dont wanna use shitty internet
wiryfuture🦀#1706: lol
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I never actually thought about why that empty space is there https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611288177457496064/unknown.png
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I kinda wish it had two slots rather than just one >_<
wiryfuture🦀#1706: @TheGeekster Idk, here is the ssd in here (I got to it through msinfo32, Model SAMSUNG MZNLN128HAHQ-00000), and this is what I see in system info: System Model PORTEGE X20W-E, i5-8250U, 8GB 2133MHZ
wiryfuture🦀#1706: hahaha I find this funny https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611289306450886832/unknown.png
BigPierogi#3368: row of ships

wiryfuture🦀#1706: mmmmmmm
BigPierogi#3368: mine says 1/4
wiryfuture🦀#1706: delicious
BigPierogi#3368: but i only have 2 slots i think
BigPierogi#3368: :Thonking: |
TheGeekster#8508: huh yep... msata port, not pcie
TheGeekster#8508: shitty documentation on toshiba's site
wiryfuture🦀#1706: epic
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I can't actually find my device anywhere and it makes me want to kms aha
wiryfuture🦀#1706: the serial number should tell me exactly what it is tho, right?
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I can't find ANY information on my laptop
wiryfuture🦀#1706: X20W-E-15M
wiryfuture🦀#1706: according to the serial number
wiryfuture🦀#1706: there's no product info on Toshiba's website
wiryfuture🦀#1706: does my model not officially exist or something?
wiryfuture🦀#1706: nada https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611293664047792168/unknown.png
JustinXenyx#8854: It's an X20W
JustinXenyx#8854: The rest of that model name is just indicating your hardware config
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm not actually completely sure of what its hardware config is
wiryfuture🦀#1706: x20w-e |
wiryfuture🦀#1706: it's a mess
wiryfuture🦀#1706: what is this, sata/pcie x4 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/611295267907567645/unknown.png
TheGeekster#8508: i think it's as justin said, some models of your laptop might come with nvme drives, some with msata drives
wiryfuture🦀#1706: these are all 7th gen when mine is 8th gen
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I can't find anything about 8th gen

wiryfuture🦀#1706: ok, the dynabook asia site doesn't suck and actually has info
JustinXenyx#8854: did you delete your messages because you realized that you answered your question yourself? @wiryfuture🦀
wiryfuture🦀#1706: yes
wiryfuture🦀#1706: :\
wiryfuture🦀#1706: uhhhh, why is this listed as two separate items and why do they have different prices?
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Sata-Solid-State-Drive/dp/B078WQT6SB/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=samsung+1TB+860+evo+m2+sata&qid=1565817703&s=computers&sr=1-2

wiryfuture🦀#1706: They're both 1TB 860 EVOs
JustinXenyx#8854: duplicate listings are common for a lot of stuff on amazon @wiryfuture🦀 |
JustinXenyx#8854: They should really get their shit together and fix that though
wiryfuture🦀#1706: So I should just get the cheaper one?
wiryfuture🦀#1706: k
Deleted User#0000: I got cpu z installed to find out how many GB my gpu has but it doesnt say?
Deleted User#0000: its an evga 760 sc
Deleted User#0000: i think it is either 2gb or 4gb
DarknessFalls229#2286: ever thought about
DarknessFalls229#2286: GPU-Z
DarknessFalls229#2286: ?
JustinXenyx#8854: I think you should be able to see the logic error @Deleted User
JustinXenyx#8854: CPU-Z for a GPU, when GPU-Z exists lmao
CaptainFlanger#2563: Guys, is the pairing of an i7 3770 and GTX 1060 make sense?
DarknessFalls229#2286: yes
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, i'd say a "perfect" combo @CaptainFlanger
DarknessFalls229#2286: ^^, really well paired |
CaptainFlanger#2563: Because I was impatient enough to get both.
CaptainFlanger#2563: Aaaaand I'm ended up with both.
DarknessFalls229#2286: so, hooray?
CaptainFlanger#2563: Is there a room for better GPU in the future?
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd say it wouldn't make sense to go with a higher end gpu with that CPU now
CaptainFlanger#2563: I see
DarknessFalls229#2286: i think you should upgrade CPU before GPU, rather have a GPU bottleneck than a CPU bottleneck
DarknessFalls229#2286: BUT, a bit extra graphical performance is nice too
CaptainFlanger#2563: Bring on the graphics! Jk, bottleneck isn't that good either.
TheFifthAce#4128: imo you could pull off a 1070 still, but not really much beyond that
Alcyone#2233: 1070 or v56 will be fine. especially if you pop the ivy in a z77 with the +4 multiplier limited oc + mce.
SussyBalls#4615: is it still possible to get value from 1156 if you can get a p7p55d deluxe for 22 + shipping?
TheGeekster#8508: Eh not really
TheGeekster#8508: It's such an old platform now, bang for the buck is kinda dead

Bertie Kemp#1114: Can someone help me with a NAS/server project I'm working on, I wanted to use unraid and virtual machines but someone said it would be better to just use windows?
TheGeekster#8508: Was it me that said just use windows? :Thinkplant:
TheGeekster#8508: but i'm happy to help, slow replies i'm at work
TheGeekster#8508: @Bertie Kemp
Bertie Kemp#1114: Yeah, I've got all the parts and plan to put it together tonight, I'm also at work lol, but I wanted to make sure I get the best config software wise
TheGeekster#8508: go with what ever you wanna mess with, i'd suggest just trying different systems, see what works, don't put anything important on it yet
TheGeekster#8508: give unraid a go in trial mode, it's a good system
JustinXenyx#8854: What part config have you got? Just curious @Bertie Kemp
Bertie Kemp#1114: I got a ryzen 2600, b450 TUF mobo, 16gb ram, 1tb (2x500gb) sata ssds for cache and ive got 2 4tb NAS drives, and 750W corsair psu
Bertie Kemp#1114: I want to make sure my drives are in raid, my aim for this is so i can have a place to backup all my files, and if a drive fails i want the data to stay intact

JustinXenyx#8854: Use Start8 or Classic Shell or something in that direction if you want a classic startbar

exquisitedark#1117: like minecraft or xbor or sth
exquisitedark#1117: xbox
JustinXenyx#8854: I don't think you've gotten a vanilla install if that shit was preinstalled
JustinXenyx#8854: Did you use a modified ISO?
exquisitedark#1117: yeah'
exquisitedark#1117: its like debloated, i think
exquisitedark#1117: but i didnt have to put the product kley
TheFifthAce#4128: ...so pirated
JustinXenyx#8854: Probably one of the pre-activated (pirated) debloat ISOs
exquisitedark#1117: yes
exquisitedark#1117: probably
exquisitedark#1117: how do i add the magnifying glass thing
TheGeekster#8508: debloated installs are nearly always a terrible idea, you have absolutely no idea what people have done to it, personally would avoid like plague
JustinXenyx#8854: I don't think you can add that @exquisitedark
Bertie Kemp#1114: So whats my best option for my NAS? |
TheGeekster#8508: I think your cache idea is a bit over the top for 4TB of storage, but honestly looks alright
TheGeekster#8508: like you'd be better off with a single SSD for cache, and an extra 4TB drive imo
Bertie Kemp#1114: 8tb* 2x 4tb drives
TheGeekster#8508: Nope, if you want raid, you get half of that storage
TheGeekster#8508: Look up the different types of raid, the only way to have redundancy in storage, is to have more storage for duplication/parity
wiryfuture🦀#1706: so they'd need 4x 4tb drives?
TheGeekster#8508: Yeah, with different types of raid, to make it capable of taking say 1 drive of failure, you'll always lose a drive of storage to make sure that it can keep going, put simply
wiryfuture🦀#1706: wouldn't that get pretty expensive at higher capacities?
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh, don't get us wrong, it totally does @wiryfuture🦀
JustinXenyx#8854: But that's the cost you will have to make to get reliability
wiryfuture🦀#1706: Lol one of my friends wants to run raid on his computer and I'm sceptical - w h y ?
JustinXenyx#8854: Because he probably wants to run Raid 0
JustinXenyx#8854: Which basically fucks your reliability six ways from sunday
wiryfuture🦀#1706: performance increase, but massive reliability decrease?
JustinXenyx#8854: yup |
wiryfuture🦀#1706: how much of a performance increase can you expect from raid 0
wiryfuture🦀#1706: aka, would it ever be worth it? (to lose the reliability)
TheGeekster#8508: Instead of having one thing to fail, you have two things to fail and if one fails, it all dies
TheGeekster#8508: it would be worth it, *if you have backups and don't really care about the data*
TheGeekster#8508: like raid 0 SSDs for games? sure
wiryfuture🦀#1706: ok
TheGeekster#8508: In theory you could literally double the performance, but now with SSD's', the impact is much smaller, so tbh it's not really worth it
wiryfuture🦀#1706: so for a nas/server, you'd use which raid, 4?
wiryfuture🦀#1706: so theoretically, you just keep going up to have more redundancy?
TheGeekster#8508: There's lots of different raid types https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612012334667268096/img_57f86df8509a6.png
TheGeekster#8508: without going into lots of detail on them, that's a basic over view
Bertie Kemp#1114: Okay, i think i would want to use raid 1, how would i go about configuring that?
TheGeekster#8508: that really depends on what system you want to use, with unraid, i'd recommend using raid5, which means you'll have 4tb of storage to begin with, but you *can i think* add hard drives later
Tinybox#9112: Just a quick questions are game saves, like my half life game saves, saved on the cloud? Or local? And if they are local how do I back them up?
(I'm tired of windows being a b, so I'm reinstalling instead of spending hours in troubleshootin) |
BigPierogi#3368: i think local
BigPierogi#3368: but i think you can do it to cloud
TheGeekster#8508: Depends completely on the game and how it was built @Tinybox any games you care about, look it up manually
Tinybox#9112: oh umm where do I do it then?
BigPierogi#3368: idk
Alcyone#2233: if you have cloud saves enabled in steam it should re-download them when you reinstall. some games will save to your documents folder in a game folder with the same title or in the "my games" folder
Tinybox#9112: Okay, how do I see if it's enabled 😅
Tinybox#9112: ah okay
Tinybox#9112: its enabled on half life and opposing force
Tinybox#9112: batman however, it isn't..
Tinybox#9112: Is it possible for me to just tell steam to backup the save data on a usb @Alcyone
and then once I've reinstalled windows tell it to restore it from the usb or something? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612086980251090984/unknown.png
Alcyone#2233: thats what i used
Tinybox#9112: oh uh it seems to backup the entire game |
Tinybox#9112: No options to only backup saves ;-;
Tinybox#9112: annd I found the save data file for lego batman
Tinybox#9112: lets hope I can get away with just taking that single save data file
Tinybox#9112: and then putting it back into that folder.
Tinybox#9112: I hope these two arent required.
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612088817142333452/unknown.png
BigPierogi#3368: make backup
BigPierogi#3368: also it might be supported for some games
BigPierogi#3368: not sure if for all
Tinybox#9112: Well, if I make a backup it backups the entire game..
And I got no USB that size ;-;
Tinybox#9112: to backup the game I'd need my external hdd
Tinybox#9112: Or plug in the "backup" PC.
Tinybox#9112: and that would suck in being practical..
BigPierogi#3368: according to valve |
BigPierogi#3368: half life is supported for steam cloud
Tinybox#9112: yea
Tinybox#9112: It is.
Tinybox#9112: I just backed it up there
Tinybox#9112: opposing force too
Tinybox#9112: But Lego batman
Tinybox#9112: eeee
BigPierogi#3368: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612089318818840620/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: it isn't supported.
BigPierogi#3368: here you go
Tinybox#9112: So I need to do this stuff
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612089403992571906/unknown.png
BigPierogi#3368: did you do what photo says
Tinybox#9112: Lego batman doesnt seem to support it
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612089574671253514/unknown.png |
Tinybox#9112: But half life does ^^
Tinybox#9112: Like you said
BigPierogi#3368: dont know if its supported
BigPierogi#3368: idk why
BigPierogi#3368: infact
Tinybox#9112: Ill just take mappings.dat and the other files "near" the saves file.
Tinybox#9112: And hope it will just work
BigPierogi#3368: according to some threads
Tinybox#9112: without being werid
BigPierogi#3368: most lego games arent supported
Tinybox#9112: yea
Tinybox#9112: the save game file isn't even any where close to steam files
Tinybox#9112: It's just a hidden file in user
BigPierogi#3368: well that sucks
BigPierogi#3368: i guess just find the save in the gmae files |
BigPierogi#3368: and find a usb
BigPierogi#3368: somewhere
BigPierogi#3368: or floppy disk
BigPierogi#3368: :Xdxdxd:
Tinybox#9112: ima just take this entire file
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612090123840126997/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: And then replace it later.
BigPierogi#3368: how big
Tinybox#9112: It pretty small
Tinybox#9112: a few KB
BigPierogi#3368: get floppy drive
BigPierogi#3368: or cd
Tinybox#9112: contains this here
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612090260721238036/unknown.png
BigPierogi#3368: like a man |
Tinybox#9112: and the saves
Tinybox#9112: it wasnt easy to find it
Tinybox#9112: btw
Tinybox#9112: alright
Tinybox#9112: time for a format
Tinybox#9112: or better said
Tinybox#9112: time to reinstall windows for being yiffy
BigPierogi#3368: what do you mean?
Tinybox#9112: Screen tearing after DDUing
Tinybox#9112: and reinstalling driver
Tinybox#9112: and wait what
Tinybox#9112: I just inserted the ESD USB
Tinybox#9112: and now the problem is gone?
Tinybox#9112: wtf?
Tinybox#9112: well |
Tinybox#9112: I guess that saves me time and trouble
BigPierogi#3368: bruh
Tinybox#9112: thanks windows for wasting my time
Tinybox#9112: ;-;
BigPierogi#3368: and saving it
SussyBalls#4615: why do older power supplys have 2 sockets? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612274041776111636/unknown.png
SussyBalls#4615: and why is it just like the above, just upside down but now a female socket
wapted#6788: so you can daisy chain
SussyBalls#4615: weird, never seen such a cable
Deleted User#0000: Why the fuck does this exist
Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612276597306818572/JPEG_20190817_142832.jpg
TheGeekster#8508: so you can use a USB keyboard/mouse on a PS/2 motherboard
JustinXenyx#8854: @SussyBalls Like wapted is saying, that is usable for daisy chaining, if anybody ever used it for that i dunno
SussyBalls#4615: so in other words i will not need it if i get a psu like that
nice |
JustinXenyx#8854: No, in other words every psu that has that is ancient and should be avoided lmao
TheFifthAce#4128: ye avoid those lol
kittycat959#2895: ^
SussyBalls#4615: yeah but i may be getting a couple retro pcs, checked them out earlier and they had that very plug
generally sub 100mhz pentium machines
SussyBalls#4615: one of them is a sweet Olivetti Modulo P100
SussyBalls#4615: most of the machines were used as servers for in a now semi abandoned holiday resort
exquisitedark#1117: i need a free antivirus- can someone give me recommendations?
TheGeekster#8508: windows defender is pretty good now, if you have windows 10
JustinXenyx#8854: He has windows 10, but it seems he got a borked pirated version @TheGeekster
JustinXenyx#8854: So i really wouldn't trust Windows 10
TheGeekster#8508: ah... reinstall windows 10 from a proper iso then 😩
TheGeekster#8508: no point worrying about something that you know someone has been through rigorously enough to diddle with, just flatten and reinstall with a trusted source
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I use Immunet aha
Grockle#7163: What AM2 CPU's work with Win 10/ Ubuntu |
Grockle#7163: working on a project
JustinXenyx#8854: Different question, which ones don't?
TheGeekster#8508: I think most, should? Maybe? I mean performance will be through the floor, but yeah they should work
Grockle#7163: running an opteron 1300l, 30 minutes and it didn't get past the windows logo while trying to install it, i would reckon that counts as not working
JustinXenyx#8854: 1300L?
JustinXenyx#8854: Never heard of that one
JustinXenyx#8854: And neither has google
Grockle#7163: i may be remembering incorrectly, any rate, its a single core so it doesn't really seem to work too well
Alcyone#2233: if you have a weak cpu and 4gb or less of ram, 32bit will probably run better
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
Lady Mipha#0611: 64bit takes more resources to run
TheFifthAce#4128: just run mint
TheFifthAce#4128: :Kappa7:
watsonad2000#2000: whats a good test for ram and cpu perf
watsonad2000#2000: and stubilty |
TheFifthAce#4128: ac origins
TheFifthAce#4128: :uwugris:
TheGeekster#8508: like half an hour of prime 95 should be alright for testing thermals, ram? kinda, mostly works or it doesn't, memtest86 shouldl work
JustinXenyx#8854: Depends on the cooling solution you run @TheGeekster
JustinXenyx#8854: With air 20-30 minutes is enough, with water you need like a hour minimum
TheGeekster#8508: answering @watsonad2000
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh, i didn't see that lol
watsonad2000#2000: im going to try adia64
Bertie Kemp#1114: Can someone help with my pc not booting? I have a b450 tuf pro mobo, 2600, 16gb of corsair 3000mhz ram, 2 sata ssds, 2 4tb hard drives, I turn it on, i get one beep, wait 10 seconds and then get one long beep, three short ones
Alcyone#2233: that is gpu error I think. make sure the card is fully seated in the top most x16 slot and the power cables are inserted correctly and all the way. on both ends if its a modular psu
Bertie Kemp#1114: No gpu
Bertie Kemp#1114: Think its ram compatibility but I'm not sure, 16gb of corsair vengeance lpx 3000mhz should be fine right?
JustinXenyx#8854: I think "No gpu" is exactly why it's not booting @Bertie Kemp
Bertie Kemp#1114: Yeahhhhh I am very tired and somehow thought it had integrated graphics, will a gt210 be bottlenecked by the 2600?
JustinXenyx#8854: Definitely |
JustinXenyx#8854: the GT210 is WAY to powerful for a Ryzen 5 2600
Bertie Kemp#1114: Crap, I'll have to upgrade, would threadripper be able to cut it?
Abe.#3344: I need urgent help. I literally bought a phone less than 24 hours ago and now it won't turn on
Abe.#3344: I left it to charge overnight with an 18w fast charger and now it ain't turning on
Abe.#3344: It did initially but it didn't recognize my face, because it's a dark room, but both my thumbs and my index finger didn't scan properly, even though they were detected to be touching
BigPierogi#3368: what phone
Abe.#3344: It just didn't scan them even though it looked like it did, it just flashed blue under my finger and no denials or anything. Now I can't turn it on through power button
Abe.#3344: @BigPierogi K20
BigPierogi#3368: samsung?
BigPierogi#3368: or?
Abe.#3344: Redmi (Xiaomi)
Abe.#3344: I have a 1 yr warranty
Abe.#3344: But I leave India in less than 10 days, so idk if I have time
Abe.#3344: Ok nvm, it just rebooted now and it's fine. I don't think I'm gonna use a fast charger through the night tho, cuz it got hot.
JustinXenyx#8854: You only have the warranty in India though @Abe. |
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, fast charging over night, that's dumb as fuck
JustinXenyx#8854: Will just drain battery life like crazy
JustinXenyx#8854: With a decent fast charger your phone will be at 80% within an hour from completely dead
Abe.#3344: @JustinXenyx yeah, that's why I didn't know if I had time to get it fixed before I leave
Abe.#3344: Didn't know about the fast charger thing lmao, haven't used one before, but it makes sense.
Abe.#3344: It's the only one it came with, but my parents both have type C phones too so it's fine.
LaeMat#0420: My Nexus 4 turned off all of a sudden
LaeMat#0420: I was using it and accidentally it fell off of my bed
LaeMat#0420: Hasn’t turned on
LaeMat#0420: it isn’t damaged
LaeMat#0420: on the exterior
LaeMat#0420: When plugged in the red light blinks
LaeMat#0420: Could it be the battery?
LaeMat#0420: Or hardware damage?
JustinXenyx#8854: hardware damage most likely |
LaeMat#0420: ouch
LaeMat#0420: Should I try repairing it?
JustinXenyx#8854: I had an LG D605 that i could "restart" by hitting it on the top left, was a definite hardware issue lol
JustinXenyx#8854: @LaeMat You should always try, if you can then you'll have learned something and have a working phone again and if not you'll know that it was broken before and you probably didn't make it much worse/any worse
LaeMat#0420: Ok
Grockle#7163: alright, so should i just re-try with ubuntu then?
TheGeekster#8508: @Bertie Kemp You're using it as a NAS aye? A Gt210 should work fine, the only thing you won't be able to do on it is game, but as it's a NAS, it won't affect file transfer speeds or anything else
SussyBalls#4615: I could get a few different parts for 22 dollars, all are failing to post, should i risk it?
GA-78LMT-S2 + FX-6300 + stock cooler, Z87-G45 GAMING + 4670k, Geforce GTX 1050 Ti AERO ITX 4G OC
MythologicalZ#3752: All of that for 22?
SussyBalls#4615: The 4670k does also not seem to work on any other board, and is sanded, so likely dead by oc
SussyBalls#4615: yeah but none is working
MythologicalZ#3752: You can make that back ez
MythologicalZ#3752: I'd risk it
SussyBalls#4615: I could practice some delidding if the chip is truly dead |
Bertie Kemp#1114: Got the nas working, surprisingly adding a gpu to a non integrated graphics system solved most of the issues. So now I've got 2 ssds and 2 hdds, what's the best way to get ssd caching to work?
Bertie Kemp#1114: I was just thinking of using windows and a mirrored volume, is there any better way?
Bertie Kemp#1114: @JustinXenyx is my best bet to just install windows to one of the ssds and find some way of doing ssd caching that way? Or would something like unraid work better for that?
TheGeekster#8508: Try unraid, install it to a usb stick
TheGeekster#8508: Experimentation is gonna be your best bet, you won't get it right first time, try different systems, different setups
Bertie Kemp#1114: I also want a windows vm for running game servers and stuff, would unraid still work for that?
SussyBalls#4615: wtf
i ask the guy what the hell this is and he says fat and is like >i dropped fat on the optiplex https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612616606224220183/68877453_789284848203102_8279250539141660672_n.png
SussyBalls#4615: how do you manage to drop a bucket of fat on an optiplex
BigPierogi#3368: lard
BigPierogi#3368: or pig fat
SussyBalls#4615: Got the supposed broken parts, going to test the 4670k first when I get home
SussyBalls#4615: it was not sanded so it may just not have been killed from oc
SussyBalls#4615: if the 1050ti is dead I can sell the cooler atleast
DarknessFalls229#2286: I think one of my corsair SP RGB fans OOF'ed |
Grockle#7163: F
SussyBalls#4615: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612726220802752522/20190818_211616.jpg
SussyBalls#4615: So this is what killed the 1050ti
SussyBalls#4615: Anyone got any experience with MSI second hand warranty?
SussyBalls#4615: it's from September 2017 so it should have a little more left
JustinXenyx#8854: MSI cards usually have 3 years of warranty
JustinXenyx#8854: As for the second hand thing, i don't think they do second hand warranty or only with original proof of purchase (properly transferred ownership)
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, i don't think MSI's warranty covers shot mosfets that are in 99% of cases the users fault
SussyBalls#4615: How did they even manage that on a 75w card without a 6 pin
JustinXenyx#8854: Manual overvolt via bios
JustinXenyx#8854: PCIe slots can exceed normal spec by a decent amount, so even OC on just the PCIe slot is not that abnormal if you think about it
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
Bertie Kemp#1114: Can someone help me map a network drive? its just telling me windows cannot access the folder but it can see it
TheGeekster#8508: What's the actual error message?
Bertie Kemp#1114: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612766607164571648/unknown.png |
TheGeekster#8508: have you set up a user account on the NAS that can access the share?
Bertie Kemp#1114: how do i do that
TheGeekster#8508: ... i don't know what you're using, i think it's best to follow some tutorials online
TheGeekster#8508: unraid? freenas? windows?
Bertie Kemp#1114: i made a folder on windows with primocache, and now im trying to share that folder with my pc over the network
TheGeekster#8508: Try the "Map Network Drive" option in "This PC" https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612767950784430164/unknown.png
TheGeekster#8508: You'll want to enter the name of the computer (the user domain) and the password, that you set up on the server as administrator
TheGeekster#8508: so probably servernas\administrator and your password
Bertie Kemp#1114: when i set up the local account, the username was Nas and i didnt set a password, but when i put that into the boxes, it doesnt like it
TheGeekster#8508: you need a password for network shares
TheGeekster#8508: windows doesn't like sharing files without a password afaik
TheGeekster#8508: and it's not a good idea
TheGeekster#8508: are you using windows 10? or windows server?
Bertie Kemp#1114: windows 10
Bertie Kemp#1114: made a password but it still says the username and password it wrong |
TheGeekster#8508: are you typing in "servernas\nas" as the username, and then the password?
Bertie Kemp#1114: well windows is updating on my nas
Bertie Kemp#1114: let me see what i put when it boots back up
TheGeekster#8508: Okay, I'd honestly look up some videos on youtube though, just look up "DIY NAS tutorial" and have a watch through, you'll learn a lot about raid, backups, sharing files etc
Bertie Kemp#1114: okay, will do, cheers
wapted#6788: Ouch that mosphet is oof
wapted#6788: If it was just that repairing might be quite doable, but the burnt traces... Oh dear
JustinXenyx#8854: I don't think he has the tools or knowledge to fix that damage though @wapted
JustinXenyx#8854: Which also would explain why he would be asking about second hand warranty
boog#9487: Have thermaltake power supplies gotten more reliable or are they still explosive
boog#9487: I was looking at a thermal take smart 430w 80+ white as it's on sale
LaeMat#0420: Probably safe
JustinXenyx#8854: The low end models are still shit, but the higher end models are decent afaik
boog#9487: Like how shit
boog#9487: Bomb shit? |
JustinXenyx#8854: Like, i as a system builder who builds a dozen of the same machine at a time wouldn't employ them shit
JustinXenyx#8854: Too high of a risk of them going off
boog#9487: Hmm
boog#9487: Well fuck
boog#9487: I guess I'm cancelling that order
boog#9487: My budget is quite slim would a used power supply from say evga be acceptable
JustinXenyx#8854: I think @TheFifthAce knows better than me which EVGA units to avoid
boog#9487: Ok
JustinXenyx#8854: Or @MythologicalZ, which EVGA units should be avoided again?
MythologicalZ#3752: Dunno
MythologicalZ#3752: Abstract has the list
MythologicalZ#3752: I'd assume the whites aren't too great though
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, i know the whites and the ---B models are shit, but i've gotten out of touch with some of the newer EVGA models
boog#9487: My 600b has served me well in my main pc
boog#9487: But I found a 450bt I might be able to afford |
JustinXenyx#8854: I think the BT models are decent
boog#9487: Alright
boog#9487: I'ma keep looking for more deals tho
boog#9487: Didnt find much else so I ordered a 450bt
boog#9487: Thanks for helping me not have a glorified smoke machine
TheFifthAce#4128: @JustinXenyx what is the question
TheFifthAce#4128: thermaltake smarts are bombs
TheFifthAce#4128: @boog 450bt is a good unit
TheFifthAce#4128: its a superflower unit
TheFifthAce#4128: with minimal ripple
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, was asking about which Evga units are alright
boog#9487: I'm going to pretend I know what this means
TheFifthAce#4128: only the BT is a decent budget ones
TheFifthAce#4128: B and BR are shit
TheFifthAce#4128: HEc |
boog#9487: Whats so bad about b
boog#9487: I have one I hope I don't have to change it out
TheFifthAce#4128: its an HEC unit
TheFifthAce#4128: it's chinesium garbage
TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612803266559868928/unknown.png
TheFifthAce#4128: look how fucking awful the ripple is on it
TheFifthAce#4128: and thats crossload
TheFifthAce#4128: it gets worse on the 12v and 5vsb on regular full load
TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/612803484642705408/unknown.png
TheFifthAce#4128: and that's just ripple, that doesn't bring into account efficiency, part quality, etc
TheFifthAce#4128: evga b's are shit
boog#9487: Oh
boog#9487: Well fuck
exquisitedark#1117: so
exquisitedark#1117: i got my windows defender working |
exquisitedark#1117: uninstalled previously installed programs
Tinybox#9112: @TheFifthAce
FSP Hydro any good?
Tinybox#9112: HD500 or PPA5006401
Tinybox#9112: And (FSP FSP500-60GHN)
MODELL NUMBER: 9PA5003303
Tinybox#9112: And are they worth it over a CORSAIR CX650M
JustinXenyx#8854: @TheFifthAce Don't forget, some B models are being slightly downgraded in "3rd world countries"
TheFifthAce#4128: actually it depends
TheFifthAce#4128: the cx650m is actually pretty good
TheFifthAce#4128: they're both bronze and the CX has better stuffs
DarknessFalls229#2286: hey @Fully Buffered, youve got a bit of knowledge on the skulltrail board right? i cannot install windows 10 on it so i think i need a little help on flashing the bios to the newer revision. What do you think is the best way to flash that bios?
TheFifthAce#4128: @Tinybox just whichever one is cheaper lo
Fully Buffered#2054: @DarknessFalls229 I haven't had to update the BIOS on mine, but I'd first try the express bios utility
ZeroForsaken#0001: It’s a bit hard to see, but I got a i5-2500 for 20 bucks like 30 minutes ago, was it a waste or a good purchase? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/613108499710214203/image0.jpg |
MythologicalZ#3752: 20 isn't too bad
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
ZeroForsaken#0001: Was gonna get the 2500k but I realized I’d have to replace my motherboard
ZeroForsaken#0001: So I settled with the 2500
HotShot#8006: Question for you all.
HotShot#8006: http://www.strawpoll.me/18506712
HotShot#8006: I ask because I recently sold my GTX 1070 to get a bit of money as the value decreases, but then now using a spare 970 (flex i know) i do miss the card and even though i was gunning for the RTX card, i dont really play the most newer games that would support it.
TheGeekster#8508: Don't SLI, golden rule of value, is to never SLI, the performance is too unpredictable, and must be enabled game per game basis, honestly not worth it
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
TheGeekster#8508: Tbh, 1070 is the sweet spot
Budget#8265: What do you play that needs more than a 970?
wapted#6788: ^
HotShot#8006: I have been getting into the new assasins creed game, as well as cod remastered and also Space Hulk Deathwing @Budget
Budget#8265: What are your specs?
HotShot#8006: i7-6700k, 48GB mismatched DDR4 ram oc 2660 (BOSD any higher spped) and some ssds and hard drives |
Budget#8265: The 970 should handle fine at like 1080p
wapted#6788: What resolution
Budget#8265: ^
wapted#6788: do you play at
HotShot#8006: 1440p
wapted#6788: ahhh hmm
wapted#6788: hummm
Budget#8265: Ah I can see it strugglign there
Budget#8265: To be honest Navi is doing pretty well if you just want performance and not RTX
Budget#8265: Otherwise RTX is mostly pretty fine so itd be your call
HotShot#8006: cos i snagged for £100 an AOC 32 inch new 😄
wapted#6788: In the new assassin game, aye, would deffo benefit from betterer card
wapted#6788: 2070 super and 5700xt are pretty close in Assassin creed odyssey
HotShot#8006: I thought that even though im not far off getting the 2070 new for £430-450, or used for £400 or less, the 1070 seemed to do pretty great and i thought getting another might be even better.
Budget#8265: Yah honesty either Navi or RTX is what id go for |
Tinybox#9112: budget you are awesome
MythologicalZ#3752: Navi trades blows with the 2070 super and will age better because of finewine if you keep your cards for a few years
MythologicalZ#3752: Plus AIB cards fix the heat issues
TheFifthAce#4128: ye I'm getting a 5700 xt when the aibs drop fully
Alcyone#2233: I might as well. I keep going back and forth on 5700xt or used 1080ti now that they are under $500 here
Jam#0384: Im fine with my GTX 1080 for now
Jam#0384: It is a very nice card even at 1440p
Jam#0384: i have a feeling Pascal will age well. Not as well as GCN or Navi (probably will)
Jam#0384: But in comparison to some other Novideo architectures will
Jam#0384: Right now is just a very hard time to judge
Jam#0384: Everything is moving so fast except RAM lmao
TheFifthAce#4128: ddr5 when
TheFifthAce#4128: :Kappa10000:
MythologicalZ#3752: I'd argue RAM is doing fairly well
MythologicalZ#3752: We're seeing high speed kits at much lower prices nowadays |
BigPierogi#3368: unlike before
TheGeekster#8508: Also to be fair in the server world, persistant RAM is going to be something new we haven't seen before that'll trickle down to consumer eventually
TheGeekster#8508: imagine your OS inside a ram disk, and then not having to load anything into ram, as it's already in ram 😩
Jam#0384: Thats hot
Lady Mipha#0611: That’s hot
DarknessFalls229#2286: That is hot
BigPierogi#3368: That's hot
SussyBalls#4615: What's a reliable program to install on cds that an recover lost passwords for Windows 2000?
SussyBalls#4615: Tried a few but most are paid or have dead links
TheGeekster#8508: Most are paid for a reason, probably not a trivial thing to do, remove a password, no matter what, are you trying to recover files? no chance of reinstalling it?
SussyBalls#4615: System is very proprietary and has no drivers left on the internet, so a full reset would likely mean I'd never get drivers again
TheGeekster#8508: you coulddddd in theory manually retrieve the drivers 🤔 if it works in the same way as modern windows, there's a driver store, if you copied that, then used a different hard drive, you might be able to reinstallw indows
SussyBalls#4615: How would I copy it while being locked out of the drive and having no other IDE system to hook it up to (atm)
SussyBalls#4615: I do have another IDE system but the AT power supply is too rusty to use
TheGeekster#8508: IDE hard drive dock? a live boot cd? |
SussyBalls#4615: What would you recommend to live boot with? the best burnable dvd I have atm is around 7gb
TheGeekster#8508: hirens boot CD, it contains a mini windows XP install, is it rewritable?
TheGeekster#8508: also does the windows 2000 machine HAVE a dvd?
SussyBalls#4615: Yeah, it's a Pentium 4 machine with a 2000 license, a little overkill
SussyBalls#4615: But the dvd should work
SussyBalls#4615: Going to repaste it since I've disassembled it anyways, going to try the boot cd than
SussyBalls#4615: Wow that mini xp is amazingly useful
TheGeekster#8508: ikr, got a decent amount of drivers in it too
SussyBalls#4615: time to see if the password cracker tool worked or if i did something wrong
SussyBalls#4615: holy shit yes i got onto the administrator account
SussyBalls#4615: bruh first thing that pops up is an update to adobe flash player
TheGeekster#8508: *update your master*
Lady Mipha#0611: :Hahahahaha:
Razorsz#5056: Ah fun, old pc had mobo replaced, same with gpu since it died, trying to get the stuff off the hdd but as soon as it tries to load something off the hdd it jumps back to q restart, post sound is fine but ik the hard drive is dying, gonna see if its the cable tho
Razorsz#5056: @Tech Helper anyone mind helping me diagnose an old pc boot loop? |
killah#6020: reinstall windows or change the ram
killah#6020: dunno wat loop you got lol
Razorsz#5056: Everything is new except the ram which works and cpu, the hard drive is dying and im trying to get old family photos off of it, as soon as the pc tries to load up windows it resets and makes a successful post beep, i can access bios and everything
Razorsz#5056: My other suspicion is iy says my cpu is amd hammer family processor, model unknown, idk if the cpu would be loose, honestly i doubt it since i changed the board n refitted the cpu fine
Razorsz#5056: Since most boot menus tell you your processor
Razorsz#5056: I do have a 2.5" hdd with windows out of an old laptop, its sata, i can get it to work, if it boots into the windows on that the hard drive is indeed kaput
TheGeekster#8508: I'd suggest not messing around with the hard drive, if you care about what is on it, take it to a repair shop and ask them to recover the data, it'll cost but it's far less likely to mess up if the photos are important
LaeMat#0420: buy a hard drive enclosure
Razorsz#5056: Eh, i believe some are backed up ona disc but ik this drive has been dying, just put the other windows xp hdd in, if it boots the other drive is dead, cuz tbh all it does is spin up but no signs of the arm moving inside
Razorsz#5056: Its not the end of the world but idearly id like to get the photos off
killah#6020: burn a linux live cd
Razorsz#5056: Cant
BigPierogi#3368: why not
Razorsz#5056: Well can but eh
Razorsz#5056: Its late, not pissing about with an os install |
killah#6020: usb drive linux and pull files off
Razorsz#5056: Pc wont read flash drives, is old
Razorsz#5056: Only recognises usb input devices
BigPierogi#3368: how old is it
BigPierogi#3368: that it doesnt recoginise flash drives
Razorsz#5056: I mean agp should tell u its old lmao
BigPierogi#3368: becuase xp lets you put in flash drives
Razorsz#5056: 2002-2004 pc
Razorsz#5056: Yes but on sp3
Razorsz#5056: This has sp1 or 2 on it
Razorsz#5056: Same with wpa2 support, only on sp3, i only have an sp2 disc
Razorsz#5056: Or win 7
BigPierogi#3368: no
BigPierogi#3368: wait
BigPierogi#3368: i think windows 2000 supported it |
BigPierogi#3368: so xp should be supported
BigPierogi#3368: or me
Razorsz#5056: There's usb support since 98 SE
Razorsz#5056: But unless u have a driver disc, it wont recognise as a flash drive until vista
Razorsz#5056: Ide hdd block mode...hmn
Razorsz#5056: Suggests itll block the hdd after it surpasses its optimal read n writes limit
Razorsz#5056: Gonna turn off dat
Razorsz#5056: Recognises the sata hdd but calls it an ide drive, it does flash up with windows xp for a second, tho this was from an oem laptop so maybe itll refuse a boot
Razorsz#5056: I was still able to access it when plugging it into my main pc
Razorsz#5056: Its not boot looping tho, just a black screen this time
Razorsz#5056: Pressed enter and hey, boot loop again
Razorsz#5056: Hmmm...
Razorsz#5056: Windows booy manager seems to pop up briefly highlighting xp
Razorsz#5056: But then it boot loops
Razorsz#5056: Hm.. |
Razorsz#5056: Well this is new :trolled:
Razorsz#5056: This is requiring all of my IQs
Razorsz#5056: :JellyBeanFace:
Razorsz#5056: Already done a bad ram n gpu check, swapped gpu, ram fine after scan, everything plugged in, i know my friend plugged the front IO in wrong and his pc would turn on but not boot, mine doesnt turn on the light or hdd light
Razorsz#5056: Maybe it could be that, never had that problem but could be
Razorsz#5056: Hm..
Razorsz#5056: IDE channel 1 no 80 conductor cable installed, thats the cd drive which ik is bad but might be working
Razorsz#5056: Couls swap it to eliminate anotherbpossibility
Razorsz#5056: Maybe yhe ide cable is bad too, ive had that happen
Razorsz#5056: So that is now fixed
Razorsz#5056: Lets try a boot, i heard hdd noises
Razorsz#5056: Same issue, fek..
Razorsz#5056: In safe mode it starts to read some essential files but im not sure all of them
Razorsz#5056: Gagpk30.sys
Razorsz#5056: Doesnt look like the last file to me |
Razorsz#5056: Cmos is dead ik that
Lady Mipha#0611: Probably because the hard drive has destroyed part of the operating system
Lady Mipha#0611: From it dying
Lady Mipha#0611: @Razorsz
Razorsz#5056: Likely
Lady Mipha#0611: Which means it’s not gonna be bootable
Razorsz#5056: Tho last time i booted this pc a few years ago it was fine, around 2012 but i noticed it was a bit slow, that was the last time i tried to get photos off before it went in storage, the psu pin had broken and the caps on the gpu n cpu were swollen n cracked, cd drive died later, all replaced now, only og shit is the ram cpu and hdd, the hdd being the issue, i do have another ide drive that used to have xp, tho that drive went funny but i could test to see if it works
Razorsz#5056: If i can remember where i put it..
Razorsz#5056: I think i left it in my compaq pc.. which means moving that. Ree
Razorsz#5056: Unless i put it in mah box o shiz
Razorsz#5056: Aha!
Razorsz#5056: Here it iz
Razorsz#5056: 10/10 running crisis commentary
Razorsz#5056: One more time with pins in right order
Razorsz#5056: This drive really is trying |
Razorsz#5056: I might let it boot loop a few times n hope it works
Razorsz#5056: If not ill try the other drive

Razorsz#5056: :sad_peter:
Razorsz#5056: Now even with drives that refuse to boot into windows ive been able to plug them into my main pc n rip the files but this is ide so i need an ide to sata controller
Razorsz#5056: Maybe the master slave setup could stop it
Razorsz#5056: Idk
Razorsz#5056: This drive stops at mup.sys and boot loops
Razorsz#5056: 1 file before the other one om the other drive
Razorsz#5056: I mean this one makes a very weird whizz noise,
Razorsz#5056: Exact same thing, xp flashes up and restart
Razorsz#5056: Welp, 2 ded drives, sad times
Razorsz#5056: Well, i have a 120gb sata drive that works, lets see if i can install xp onto that
Razorsz#5056: Itll solidify that its a drive error if i can at least install another OS onto this drive
Razorsz#5056: Tbh i could ditch ide entirely n use the 2 sata for my cd drive and hdd n just use the floppy ide |
Razorsz#5056: Fuck ide cables xd
Razorsz#5056: Welp need 1 more sata for drive so o well, ide drive stays
Razorsz#5056: Shame, this maxtor 80gb drive is really well made
Razorsz#5056: Doesnt like sata drives
Razorsz#5056: Rip, time to buy an ide drive
mi³nshel#9774: alright
mi³nshel#9774: theres no way to recover a file that u deleted then emptied recycle bin right?
JustinXenyx#8854: It depends on when that file was deleted @mi³nshel
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
JustinXenyx#8854: Because if it was deleted a couple weeks back, chances are it already was overwritten
mi³nshel#9774: docx document
JustinXenyx#8854: If you deleted it a couple moments ago, it's easily recoverable
mi³nshel#9774: oh well im fucked then i deleted it like couple months ago
Lady Mipha#0611: The later the file was deleted the harder to recover because of other files writing over it

Deleted User#0000: still not giving a display
SussyBalls#4615: looks like it's from an oem
try connecting some fan connector to the cpu fan mount, you don't need to fully mount the fan though, just something to let the board know the cpu is being "cooled"
Deleted User#0000: Wayyyyyyyyy
Deleted User#0000: a display
SussyBalls#4615: got a signal or what? what did you do
Deleted User#0000: Put a cpu cooler on
BigPierogi#3368: why is the cooler not on in the first place |
Deleted User#0000: swapping the cpu about
Deleted User#0000: to make sure that wasnt the issue
SussyBalls#4615: nice
Deleted User#0000: gonna put the original cpu in and see if it gives a display
SussyBalls#4615: understandable an oem board would not do anything without a cooler
they don't want any warranty requests because the cpu fried

TheGeekster#8508: Bless their tiny out matched hearts ❤
MythologicalZ#3752: 9900k has a 95w TDP
MythologicalZ#3752: Now the 10c will likely have a 120w TDP
MythologicalZ#3752: MonkaS
TheGeekster#8508: Hey it's fine, it's not like they're gonna try and release a 400w CPU in the end to try and match it
MythologicalZ#3752: Wonder what this means for next gen X299 |
MythologicalZ#3752: 10c on consumer would sorta end the 7900x/9920x equivalent since PLX boards will likely be a thing
JustinXenyx#8854: BuT ThE PcIe lAnEs @MythologicalZ
JustinXenyx#8854: :Hahahahaha:
MythologicalZ#3752: Hence PLX
MythologicalZ#3752: Which normally falls in line with starting to mid range HEDT board prices
JustinXenyx#8854: Also wait, is Comet Lake still a Skylake Refresh?
MythologicalZ#3752: Probably
JustinXenyx#8854: Then we would be at Skylake++++ i think lol
JustinXenyx#8854: Skylake, Kabylake, Coffee Lake, Comet Lake
JustinXenyx#8854: Wait, wasn't Kaby or Coffee refreshed?
MythologicalZ#3752: They're refreshes themselves
JustinXenyx#8854: Kaby had a 10nm version, but i think Coffee got a refresh
MythologicalZ#3752: :GWgoaThinken:
JustinXenyx#8854: Anyway, we all know that the 10 core chip will be a nightmare to cool so i don't even think any consumer or even prosumer is gonna be really interested in it
MythologicalZ#3752: Indeed |
MythologicalZ#3752: Just massive overkill at that point for the workloads Intel still has advantages in
SuSSudio#2688: I'm certain it'll be Skylake++++
SuSSudio#2688: Intel's 10nm is a disaster, mistakes have been made from ground up
SuSSudio#2688: Hail them for not using cobalt material whereas competitor had already used cobalt for transistor material
MythologicalZ#3752: :Mainman:
MythologicalZ#3752: Doubt any consumer would care about that
SuSSudio#2688: Bingo... Well except for those who invest in cpu developments... Intel's got no room to be praised here for now...

JustinXenyx#8854: Looks like it has airflow problems to me
Impish#5173: were?
JustinXenyx#8854: The front is covered in a glass pane with only minimal side ventilation, kiss your airflow goodbye lmao
Impish#5173: On yt tests it had low temps
Impish#5173: On idle 20-25C
JustinXenyx#8854: ????????????? |
JustinXenyx#8854: That makes no fucking sense what so ever lol

Impish#5173: I mean I could take off the panel and have more air lmao but I would have dust everywere
JustinXenyx#8854: Again, the glass pane is gonna impact airflow A LOT but the side vents are a decent amount bigger
Impish#5173: Hm okay

JustinXenyx#8854: Answer stays the same
JustinXenyx#8854: Glass/Acrylic front, blocking airflow

thatubuntuguy#5914: 3.5gb
Budget#8265: 4GB maximum allocation
thatubuntuguy#5914: ^
thatubuntuguy#5914: windows will usually only allow you to use 3.5gb of it tho
Budget#8265: A 32bit application will only utilise 2GB I believe though
thatubuntuguy#5914: huh? didn't know that
thatubuntuguy#5914: interesting
Deleted User#0000: so 2gb correct?
thatubuntuguy#5914: the cpu can allocate max 4gb memory but budget says that a specific 32bit application can't use more than 2 gb
thatubuntuguy#5914: by a specific i mean by the app being specifically 32bit
Deleted User#0000: ah okay, well i dug up a 32bit tower |

Fully Buffered#2054: Are you able to boot other OSes? Are the drives detected correctly in the BIOS? Tried other SATA ports?
DarknessFalls229#2286: @Fully Buffered
Windows 7 works. havent tried other sata ports, does that matter?

DarknessFalls229#2286: not any particular version as i havent got to that screen
Fully Buffered#2054: Ah okay
DarknessFalls229#2286: its just it tries to boot from USB, shows the win 10 logo for like 2 minutes and then reboots
Fully Buffered#2054: Can you install 10 Pro on a different machine and then just plug the drive into this one? I’m not sure what the problem is.
DarknessFalls229#2286: ill try that, but im still not sure where the issue is for installing on the mobo itself |
TheFifthAce#4128: @DarknessFalls229 is it in legacy mode rn
DarknessFalls229#2286: i dont know?
DarknessFalls229#2286: Wheres the option
BigPierogi#3368: i think it might be in the bios
BigPierogi#3368: not 100% sure
Deleted User#0000: I have a board which just wont turn on
Deleted User#0000: any ideas?
LaeMat#0420: what's in the board?
Deleted User#0000: an i3
Deleted User#0000: @LaeMat
LaeMat#0420: ram?
LaeMat#0420: is it right ram speed?
Deleted User#0000: Its 4gb
Deleted User#0000: 1600
Deleted User#0000: it doesnt give any sign of life |
LaeMat#0420: with power in
LaeMat#0420: everything plugged in?
Deleted User#0000: Yep
LaeMat#0420: so
LaeMat#0420: 1: the board is dead
LaeMat#0420: 2: ask someone else
Deleted User#0000: oof
LaeMat#0420: or wait for someone else to respond
Deleted User#0000: ive tried it with the power button and with a screw driver
LaeMat#0420: hmm
LaeMat#0420: try with a different screwdriver
Deleted User#0000: i dont think that would make a difference
Deleted User#0000: ive checked if the psu works
LaeMat#0420: what mobo exactly?
MythologicalZ#3752: What board and CPU |
Deleted User#0000: a lenovo ih61m lga 1155 and an i3 2120
Deleted User#0000: ive had a system set up like that before and it works flawlessly
Deleted User#0000: so i dont think it is cpu compatibility
MythologicalZ#3752: Probably a dead board then
Deleted User#0000: rip
DarknessFalls229#2286: Found my issue
DarknessFalls229#2286: My CPU 'doesnt' have VT-x support
DarknessFalls229#2286: Eventhough its listed on the intel website of having vtx its somehow not enabled or something
LaeMat#0420: my friend has an issue
LaeMat#0420: his PC doesn't output audio anymore
LaeMat#0420: his audio output drivers are gone
LaeMat#0420: the realtek ones are gone
SussyBalls#4615: reinstall?
LaeMat#0420: He needed to update drivers
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: is it working now? @LaeMat |
LaeMat#0420: Yes
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ok
SussyBalls#4615: No post, cpu fan is at 100%
What should I try? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/614753301048721455/JPEG_20190824_113119.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: take out ram, see if it beeps (if it has a speaker)
SussyBalls#4615: no beeps without ram
fan is still going mad
Lady Mipha#0611: 🤔
Lady Mipha#0611: Have you tried clearing cmos
SussyBalls#4615: looking for a cmos atm
Lady Mipha#0611: Look at the bottom next to f_panel
JustinXenyx#8854: the cmos battery is under the pcie slot, just pull that out lol
SussyBalls#4615: yeah i know i just needed to find a working one
SussyBalls#4615: but it made no difference
Lady Mipha#0611: 🤔 |
SussyBalls#4615: board is 99% dead, came from the same guy that blew up a mosfet on a 1050ti
Lady Mipha#0611: :haha:
Lady Mipha#0611: @SussyBalls can we get the motherboard model
Lady Mipha#0611: If possible
SussyBalls#4615: oh yeah completely forgot to give model number lmao
hold on
SussyBalls#4615: GA-78LMT-S2
Lady Mipha#0611: Random thought but have you tried a different psu
JustinXenyx#8854: PSU looks fine, i'd guess it's a delta
SussyBalls#4615: The psu is a weird delta from 2006 that I just use for board testing atm, it works fine on other boards
SussyBalls#4615: dps-460cb
Deleted User#0000: @SussyBalls it the fan in the right header?
SussyBalls#4615: yeah it says cpu fan
plus it's not an oem board so i doubt it has the same limitations
SussyBalls#4615: some people have probably cooled am3 chips passively |
Deleted User#0000: anyone know how to hook up an IDE cable ?
Deleted User#0000: motherboard to disk drive?
DarknessFalls229#2286: its pretty simple, however less simple than sata
Deleted User#0000: its before my time
DarknessFalls229#2286: just plug the long end of the cable into the motherboard and either one of the 2 connectors into a hard drive or disk drive
DarknessFalls229#2286: You must pay attention to the order though
Deleted User#0000: so the blue end into the mobo
DarknessFalls229#2286: The middle connector is the Slave and the one on the end is the Master, you must set jumpers on the drives accordingly
DarknessFalls229#2286: "blue end"
DarknessFalls229#2286: i cant tell which blue end is yours
Deleted User#0000: oh all my ide cables have the longest end as the blue end
Deleted User#0000: so longest end is in the mobo
DarknessFalls229#2286: alright
Deleted User#0000: ah okay i got it going
DarknessFalls229#2286: im happy IDE cables are a thing of the past |
Deleted User#0000: Same
HotShot#8006: Hi guys. Any idea what this is inside my PSU?
DarknessFalls229#2286: _Ah yes, i see_
DarknessFalls229#2286: @HotShot Should you, perhaps, post a picture of what the issue is?
Deleted User#0000: @HotShot ?
DarknessFalls229#2286: _tech support at its finest_
LaeMat#0420: yes
nacabaro#2138: how would a ryzen 5 2600 pair with a radeon rx580
DarknessFalls229#2286: pretty well
DarknessFalls229#2286: the CPU can handle a bit more, but its a good pairing
nacabaro#2138: also does the 2600 include a cpu cooler?
nacabaro#2138: and how good is it?
DarknessFalls229#2286: should include a cooler yes, its alright for a half-decent overclock, but nothing over the top
nacabaro#2138: thanks from my friend
boog#9487: I have a old 1366 socket dell machine lying around with no cpu there's a x5670 on Amazon for 20 bucks and I was wondering if it's worth getting it running |
DarknessFalls229#2286: depends really on whats inside the PC, but generally X58 can still do general tasks and Some gaming too. Especially with that CPU you can get some good performance out of it provided you have the RAM, GPU and Mobo
boog#9487: It has 6 ram slots I'll stuff 6 4gb sticks in and probably a spare 670 for now
JustinXenyx#8854: If it will be set up as a secondary PC, not really
JustinXenyx#8854: Way to power inefficient to be used as a second PC imo
boog#9487: Everything I use is power inefficient
boog#9487: Because it's from a dumpster
boog#9487: Lemme see what other boards I have
boog#9487: That have no cpu
boog#9487: That would be power efficient
boog#9487: I mainly looking at htpc kinda PC
JustinXenyx#8854: Nah, way to power hungry for an HTPC tbh
boog#9487: The only board I have on hand with toslink is that board tho
boog#9487: Could get a sound card but I'm cheap
JustinXenyx#8854: You could also sell the old stuff off and start from scratch
boog#9487: I do have a board with an i3 in it |
boog#9487: Selling is not very viable
boog#9487: With dumpster parts
DarknessFalls229#2286: "i3" we have 10 generations of "i3" be more specific
SussyBalls#4615: i3 does not sound very "dumpster" ish
still viable
JustinXenyx#8854: Using inefficient hardware for a HTPC is also not very viable
JustinXenyx#8854: @SussyBalls He was thinking of using an 1366 rig he got from the dump as an HTPC
SussyBalls#4615: bruh
cpu itself is over a 100w likely
boog#9487: I just don't wanna sell some guy a motherboard with bent headers
boog#9487: The i3 is lemme check
boog#9487: I3-2120
SussyBalls#4615: get an ivy bridge laptop with one of the "u" chips and use that for a htpc with a wireless keyboard/mouse
no remote for it but a keyboard will do
JustinXenyx#8854: When it comes to an HTPC, i value power efficiency over everything because a HTPC can run for long amounts of time and if you have an inefficient one you're gonna have a decent bump to your electricity bill |
JustinXenyx#8854: i3 2120 is more than plenty for a HTPC tbh
SussyBalls#4615: yeah but it's not as power efficient
boog#9487: Uh
boog#9487: Only problem is I don't have a small enough case to fit into my tv stand thing
boog#9487: So that's on the list
SussyBalls#4615: use a thin laptop instead?
boog#9487: I don't have any spare ones and no money
JustinXenyx#8854: Not really worth doing that tbh especially when he already has a sandy i3 @SussyBalls
SussyBalls#4615: thought he said the 1155 board had bent pins
boog#9487: No it has bent headers like usb headers
boog#9487: Nothing shorting just not usable headers
boog#9487: There are still open headers though just not as many
SussyBalls#4615: ah ok
boog#9487: Lemme look through my bins again for another motherboard
boog#9487: Nope just some hp itx board with no expansion |
boog#9487: Not even a slot for a wifi card
Gamefreak924#5901: I cloned to a used SSD I bought and there don't seem to be any bad sectors or issues detecting the drive. However, my laptop refuses to boot to it. It usually just tells me there's nothing connected and I'm not sure why

HotShot#8006: Sorry guys lol went out drinking like real tech support
LaeMat#0420: holy near 1.1k pings
TheFifthAce#4128: @Tech Helper all I did was plug in hdd because it was in wrong port https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/614968346449805360/20190824_194401.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: Does it boot fine without the HDD?
TheFifthAce#4128: it was working fine before I turned off and plugged hdd into different port
TheFifthAce#4128: nope
JustinXenyx#8854: you've obviously tried plugging it into the port it was previously in, soo i think it's time to dissect the rig lol
TheFifthAce#4128: Lets me boot through boot menu
TheFifthAce#4128: with f11
JustinXenyx#8854: odd
TheFifthAce#4128: it wont let me select my 850 evo as a default but lets me boot to it thru boot menu
TheFifthAce#4128: Ok I think I figured out the 850 evo problem |
TheFifthAce#4128: But its not detecting my 1tb sshd
JustinXenyx#8854: Try hooking it up to a different rig and see what it does there
TheFifthAce#4128: @JustinXenyx I'm retarded
TheFifthAce#4128: I have an nvme in
TheFifthAce#4128: AHCI 4 is disabled with an nvme in
TheFifthAce#4128: I moved it to 3 and it detects fine
JustinXenyx#8854: kek
JustinXenyx#8854: Atleast it's working now
TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/614971548196929536/unknown.png
TheFifthAce#4128: perfect
kayo#6620: Whenever try playing a game (pushing my gpu), i hear a louder and louder buzzing noise coming from the 8pin connector on my gpu, and then once it gets to a certain usage point, it literally shuts the whole system down. What can I do about this? I've tried roubleshooting this in every way I can, and I'd like some new ideas on this. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mWMTvn
wiryfuture🦀#1706: @kayo I suggest that, if it is still possible, you contact the OEM for a RMA 🤷🏻
kayo#6620: I just don't know which to rma my dude
JustinXenyx#8854: Audio clips of that buzzing noise would be helpful to properly understand what is going on @kayo
Deleted User#0000: Anyone know what a 8 long beep code means? |
JustinXenyx#8854: mobo dependent, it's best if you looked it up yourself @Deleted User
Deleted User#0000: Its sorted now anyways
Deleted User#0000: but i got another issue
Deleted User#0000: the light for the start button turns on but the pc doesnt
Deleted User#0000: tried it with a different psu, no luck
boog#9487: when you find your gpu you paid 125 for in late 2018 for 50 dollars
boog#9487: im debating wether i should but another rx 480 8gb
boog#9487: my main one has had issues
boog#9487: such as shitting itself
MythologicalZ#3752: 50 is a no brainer price
MythologicalZ#3752: That's an ez flip
boog#9487: im down
boog#9487: once my refund on amazon goes through
boog#9487: or i mow the lawn
MythologicalZ#3752: :TheGoods: |
Deleted User#0000: I have a board which turns on normally but doesnt boot into the bios or windiws
Deleted User#0000: windows*
Deleted User#0000: any ideas?
Alcyone#2233: try taking the battery out for a minute
Deleted User#0000: @Alcyone okay
Deleted User#0000: @Alcyone put it back in after a min?
Alcyone#2233: yeah power off, remove battery for a minute, pop it back in and power on
Deleted User#0000: @Alcyone okay
Deleted User#0000: Still the same
Alcyone#2233: is a fan plugged into the cpu_fan header?
Deleted User#0000: Yep
Deleted User#0000: the fan is spinning
Deleted User#0000: but no beeps or noises or display
Deleted User#0000: just a spinning fan
Deleted User#0000: @Alcyone |
Alcyone#2233: is it a fresh build or did it just quit?
Deleted User#0000: The board does turn off with the power button
Deleted User#0000: no idea, bought as an untested joblot
Deleted User#0000: the motherboard + cpu and the only untested parts
Alcyone#2233: hmm, dunno. if all the connections are good it might be toast
Alcyone#2233: if its lga there could be bent pins
Alcyone#2233: but it would usually give a 00 post code or beep for cpu error
Deleted User#0000: it just booted out od nowhere
Deleted User#0000: i had it running on a bench for like 5 mins and it booted up
Deleted User#0000: I have another one but i think thats absolute deaded
kayo#6620: https://youtu.be/olObS64L6-s @JustinXenyx @wiryfuture🦀
kayo#6620: More details - noticed that it never went above 11.45 volts. Not sure if that could be causing the issue.
kayo#6620: Also, if I underclock the gpu/limit the power (does the same thing basically) it happens less and less
kayo#6620: If I underclock it by like 30% it won't shut down
kayo#6620: Now the main reason I'm pretty certain it's the psu or the gpu because either the psu could be fucked and getting voerloadedd and that's why it's clicking off, or the gpu is fucked and using too much power |
kayo#6620: because 550 watts should be plenty for my system
JustinXenyx#8854: Hmm, i'd RMA the graphics card then
JustinXenyx#8854: Especially if that sound is coming from where the power delivery circuits of the graphics card is located
kayo#6620: But that's the part of my system that's using the most power. That's why I'm not sure
Deleted User#0000: @kayo this probs wont be it but have you checked if it is a fan clipping because it could be a something as small as that. Its a quick check which could save time
kayo#6620: But you're probably right
kayo#6620: Naw
kayo#6620: I've tried turning the fans all off
Deleted User#0000: @kayo smart
kayo#6620: It's definetly coming from the power connector
Deleted User#0000: Do you have a different psu?
JustinXenyx#8854: Nah, his system literally crashes when he runs stuff with high gpu usage
kayo#6620: Not crash
Deleted User#0000: oof rip gpu :(
kayo#6620: the psu clicks and shuts the whole system down |
kayo#6620: sometimes the leds on my keyboard stay on
kayo#6620: which is why i'm thinking it may also have a broken sensor that things it's overheating
kayo#6620: i'm not worried about buying extra parts though, i'm building another machine soon for a friend so i'll just have extra stuff
kayo#6620: I can buy another psu if needed
Deleted User#0000: Have you tried it without a gpu? If you have onboard display
kayo#6620: Nope
kayo#6620: Don't
kayo#6620: Don't have onboard graphics
Deleted User#0000: oof
kayo#6620: yeah
kayo#6620: probably just going to order a 3400g or something to use for the time being while it's being rma'd
Lady Mipha#0611: Do you have a backup gpu
kayo#6620: i have a gt 610 that's probably dead
kayo#6620: wait
kayo#6620: no i don't |
kayo#6620: nevermind
Deleted User#0000: only true gamers have a back up gpu
Deleted User#0000: 😂
kayo#6620: silence *liberal*
Deleted User#0000: Im english
MythologicalZ#3752: :Mainman:
JustinXenyx#8854: I don't have a back up gpu, because my GTX660 apparently is such a fucking tank it still hasn't died after running it for SEVEN YEARS with a major OC lol
kayo#6620: But the biggest thing is that I can underclock it like 10-30% (it's not consistent how high I can go) and it works totally fine without shutting off but the buzzing is there less and less
Alcyone#2233: I'm on my backup right now. ps3 graphics hours

Alcyone#2233: mine is bios modded though so I can run up to 1.212v
Deleted User#0000: Thats its house
Deleted User#0000: nasty
kayo#6620: So y'all are positive it ain't the psu?
kayo#6620: Because it's only reading 11.45 volts on hwinfo
Alcyone#2233: that a msi cyclone?
kayo#6620: rather than 12 volts
Deleted User#0000: @Alcyone is what?
Alcyone#2233: the gpu
Deleted User#0000: Palit
Deleted User#0000: 🤢
Alcyone#2233: never see palit over here.

Alcyone#2233: I think the PNY cards we get are rebranded palit
Deleted User#0000: @Alcyone i think they are |
kayo#6620: Think I'm trying an new psu
kayo#6620: The voltage thing is really bothering me
kayo#6620: good to have another anyways
Alcyone#2233: do you have a dmm to stab the connector?
JustinXenyx#8854: Gainward and Palit cards are basically the same company
kayo#6620: nope but i can get one
kayo#6620: my multimeter got fried recently
Deleted User#0000: @JustinXenyx do gainward still make cards?
Alcyone#2233: extras are always good too. I used to have 1 psu and had to disassemble my gaming pc everytime I wanted to test or bench a loose board
kayo#6620: yep
JustinXenyx#8854: @kayo You shouldn't be worried, if it's really 11.4V then it's perfectly fine because that's within 5% of 12V
kayo#6620: it
JustinXenyx#8854: @Deleted User Yup, they do still make cards
kayo#6620: alright
kayo#6620: i'm pretty sure it's the gpu because I have no issies when i bench everything else |
Deleted User#0000: @JustinXenyx never seen one in the wild recently
kayo#6620: i've been tryna get an rma with xfx for a while hopefully thye respond again soon
kayo#6620: they've responded once but have taken 2 days to respond to my next message
kayo#6620: literally never touching xfx again
kayo#6620: they have really good thermals but it's jus tnot worth it
JustinXenyx#8854: 2 days? That's pretty fast
Deleted User#0000: rip my mobo takes 5 mins to hit the bios
kayo#6620: @Deleted User is it your first time booting with that ram?
Deleted User#0000: @kayo well i reslotted it
kayo#6620: it's very likely the ram is the culprit
Deleted User#0000: and it isnt used to that ram
kayo#6620: first boots take a while with memory
kayo#6620: try rebooting it
JustinXenyx#8854: If you think that a 2 day response time is shit for support tickets, then you wouldn't believe how bad it can be with other manufacturers @kayo
kayo#6620: Is it really normally that bad? |
kayo#6620: But regardless these issues I'm having if they're the gpu are inexcusable
Deleted User#0000: thats why i buy used
Deleted User#0000: 😂
JustinXenyx#8854: No, you're just impatient :Hahahahaha: These people have to answer HUNDREDS if not THOUSANDS of people a day, so 2 days is really good if its a new ticket
kayo#6620: Yeah
kayo#6620: I just had nothing really to compare it t
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, why do people say "Just because i had bad experience with one product i'm NEVER touching a brand again"? Like ffs, just because you had one product that went bad doesn't mean their entire products are bad
JustinXenyx#8854: You should also keep in mind, that defects do happen and are not unrealistic, that's why warranties exist
Deleted User#0000: @JustinXenyx do foxconn still make computer parts?
JustinXenyx#8854: Of couse they still make computer parts @Deleted User
kayo#6620: @JustinXenyx because this is very common with xfx
Deleted User#0000: never see this parts apart from the same foxconn 755 board
JustinXenyx#8854: And you know that how? @kayo

JustinXenyx#8854: The name AcBel already gives me major chills
JustinXenyx#8854: never have heard anything good about them
JustinXenyx#8854: in fact, the AcBel in my dads HP blew (400W unit, running an i3 3220 with iGPU)
TheFifthAce#4128: hm
TheFifthAce#4128: yeah acbel isnt great but they're better than HEC and its 80+ gold
TheFifthAce#4128: it's from a lenovo thinkstation
JustinXenyx#8854: If it's replacing an HEC unit, that's fine by me lol
TheFifthAce#4128: its replacing a lack of PSU for a 775 build

TheFifthAce#4128: idk maybe for a server
JustinXenyx#8854: I get that probably making them is cheaper than single rail, but the development cost MUST be higher than a single rail psu
JustinXenyx#8854: Servers literally use multiple power supplys for redundancy, multiple 12V lines aren't there for redundancy, they're there to make the PSU cheaper |
Xbox 360 1953#2640: my optiplex xame with an 80+ gold 275 psu
mi3night#2562: best $800 laptop is dell g7 8750h 1060

Deleted User#0000: Hey guys
Deleted User#0000: Is MIC-900B microphone worth it?
Deleted User#0000: From Auna
HappySlappyFace#0441: Price?
Deleted User#0000: 73 €
HappySlappyFace#0441: Ask in ltt
HappySlappyFace#0441: This server is budget builds
HappySlappyFace#0441: You probably won't find someone that spends 20EUR on a mic
HappySlappyFace#0441: Let alone 70
Deleted User#0000: **lmao**
HappySlappyFace#0441: Agree |
JustinXenyx#8854: @Deleted User Overrated IMO
JustinXenyx#8854: Sounds way to cheap for the price, you can find better sounding mics for less
JustinXenyx#8854: @HappySlappyFace M8, i wouldn't even dare to ask an audio-related thing in LTT, because there would be so much bullshit coming my way
wiryfuture🦀#1706: lol
wiryfuture🦀#1706: LTT has no concept of money (at least not anymore)
Deleted User#0000: @JustinXenyx do you maybe have any to recommend?
JustinXenyx#8854: I think if you're just gonna use voice chat then even a basic headset would be enough, no need for a full mic set up
Deleted User#0000: I'm gonna be doing like a youtube commentary / podcast
JustinXenyx#8854: If you want something basic and good sounding, maybe get an XM8500 with an UM2 (ironically, LTT also praised this budget combo lol)
Deleted User#0000: lol
JustinXenyx#8854: https://youtu.be/vIQfDFARBLQ?t=285 You can hear a sample from them right here (timestamped link)
Deleted User#0000: Thanks
Deleted User#0000: Got a motherboard where the fan spins for about 1 second then stops? any ideas
Deleted User#0000: The power button led turns on
Deleted User#0000: Any ideas on whats wrong with it? |
Tinybox#9112: Is the Asus AC750 pcie, for 5 bucks more is worth it over the (OLD) TP-LINK N300, even if I don't use 5Ghz WIFI
Tinybox#9112: thx
Tinybox#9112: (OLD TP-LINK N300, the heatsink thingy/logo is at the back of the chip instead of direclty on it)

boog#9487: My Samsung tv is flickering eco mode is off and it's only coming from the right side of the screen and stretching to 1/4 of the way to the left and then distorting the left
boog#9487: Anyone know what's up
boog#9487: I'll get a video once it happens again
boog#9487: It's happened like 3 times
JustinXenyx#8854: Only when eco mode is off?
boog#9487: I haven't turned eco mode on
SussyBalls#4615: Model number?
boog#9487: Lemme check
boog#9487: Samsung Lm46a550p3fxza
boog#9487: Damnit happened again when I got to the camera it stopped
SussyBalls#4615: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-jQZ-TQdgU |
SussyBalls#4615: maybe it will work?
boog#9487: I'll watch
boog#9487: My tv wasn't flickering like that
boog#9487: It was more of a distortion
boog#9487: Not a strobe light flicker of the entire screen
boog#9487: It was strobe light and distorting the screen but only part of it
boog#9487: And discoloring it
boog#9487: But should I try cutting that jumper wire?
boog#9487: As the video said
SussyBalls#4615: IF you can solder it back, go for it?
boog#9487: Good point
boog#9487: I'll go for it
boog#9487: It killed it
boog#9487: Time to get the soldering stuff out
JustinXenyx#8854: I can recommend both from long time use @Deleted User |
TheFifthAce#4128: mx500 is basically an 860 evo anyways
TheFifthAce#4128: its a good choice
Deleted User#0000: No wonders it died https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/615608011037343855/JPEG_20190826_190612.jpg

JustinXenyx#8854: hmm
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd say something very fishy is going on with the display circuits, any leaking caps etc?
boog#9487: Not that I saw when I was inside but I was more looking for a certain jumper wire
boog#9487: Could it be that it has no stand so there's too much pressure on the screen
boog#9487: I'll take another look inside
boog#9487: Nothin jumps out at me
XSpaTanx117X#0117: @Tech Helper anyway to tell Graphics Card memory type on counterfeit card?
TheFifthAce#4128: @XSpaTanx117X take off the cooler and show us the gpu die
TheFifthAce#4128: is it the same one you had before |
TheFifthAce#4128: it's prolly ddr3 lo
XSpaTanx117X#0117: theres a ddr5 version
TheFifthAce#4128: of what card
XSpaTanx117X#0117: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/198989/198989
XSpaTanx117X#0117: past that idk
XSpaTanx117X#0117: also its working
XSpaTanx117X#0117: @TheFifthAce the memory is made by Samsung which doesn't help much
XSpaTanx117X#0117: According to a data sheet by a Samsung it's ddr5 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/615739949379223552/IMG_20190826_224511_DRO.jpg

Jam#0384: Why did you purchase a scam gpu
XSpaTanx117X#0117: cuz im pretty sure i could fix it
Jam#0384: Dawid Tech Stuff and Phils Computer Lab have vids on it
Jam#0384: You need extra tools
Jam#0384: And bios modding skills
XSpaTanx117X#0117: yes this is known |
Jam#0384: Well have fun
XSpaTanx117X#0117: and the problem is?
Jam#0384: It’s just not my thing
XSpaTanx117X#0117: i suck at research
Jam#0384: I’m more interested in buying the real things
Jam#0384: Big boy collection
XSpaTanx117X#0117: okay
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, you'll need a bios flasher that costs more than the card costs/is worth, i'd say this is fine if ebay was still 100% refunding the purchases of those cards, but they usually don't do that anymore
thatubuntuguy#5914: Bios flasher is like £4
nacabaro#2138: i think you need a clamp and something to flash with
SussyBalls#4615: how much of a nuke is this? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/615920846032208020/N6nJjSP.png
JustinXenyx#8854: @SussyBalls North Korea
SussyBalls#4615: yeah probably
Alcyone#2233: that is an ancient model or meant to replace an old psu on a legacy pc that primarily uses 5v. 17a at 12v is only 204w max. and I wouldn't load that dank ass unit to that.
LaeMat#0420: 420w |
Deinsti#5907: I have an old Chinese GT 740 that's actually a overclocked GT 640, the simplest test is to just load up a more intensive game and look where the VRAM usage stops; in my case despite reporting 2gb VRAM, it crashes at 1gb and that way you can very easily determine how much it actually has
Deinsti#5907: No need to take it apart or anything
Deinsti#5907: Or if it doesn't crash and uses all of it then the bios reports the correct amount
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Anyone here ever transfer a dell optiplex mobo into a new case?
TheGeekster#8508: optiplex motherboards, depending on which one, USFF, SFF, MT etc, aren't always standard mounting
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I know the Mt mobo in my dell is, but the front io and pwr button is what isn't standard
Tinybox#9112: I should sell my ASUS P9X79 board right?
So, if I keep it I know I might be able to score an i7 3930k for 30 euros- (50 max).
But if I sell it, (got buyers lined up for 100)
Ill be able to buy an R5 1600 for 60 (max 70).
Then a PRO4 for 40 (max 50)
Then Ill be able to buy some 2400mhz 8GB DDR4 or so, for 15 euros .
wouldn't it be better for me to just upgrade to Ryzen? Simply because it's more feature proof and more efficient.
I know I won't realllyyy get anymore perfomance.
SussyBalls#4615: You'll have a better upgrade path at the very least, and lower power draw |
SussyBalls#4615: Which may be a factor for your budget
Xbox 360 1953#2640: you should just save up so that you can buy something decent
JustinXenyx#8854: Tell me when you'll find 8GB of DDR4 for 15 euros lol @Tinybox
JustinXenyx#8854: Also don't get 2400Mhz with Ryzen in general, get atleast 2800Mhz with Ryzen 1000
JustinXenyx#8854: Also don't get single channel, that's even worse lol
TheFifthAce#4128: dont get single channel*
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
SanteRaptor#2609: we out here running 2133 16gb with 2600
JustinXenyx#8854: fixed @TheFifthAce @Lady Mipha
JustinXenyx#8854: OC that shit, seriously @SanteRaptor
JustinXenyx#8854: 2666Mhz is a minimum for Ryzen 2000 ngl
SanteRaptor#2609: why?
SanteRaptor#2609: also
JustinXenyx#8854: Ryzen runs better with faster clocked memory and usually most cheap 2133mhz ram can do atleast 2666mhz
SanteRaptor#2609: only rig i can pull 16gb of faster ddr4 from is my main rig |
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx ye some guy is offering 2400mhz ram, 2x4GB
JustinXenyx#8854: take that ASAP then
JustinXenyx#8854: And i know you're not really afraid to OC stuff, you just gotta hope you'll get some good stuff lol
Tinybox#9112: its hyper x fury
Tinybox#9112: these

mi3night#2562: U know apple
mi3night#2562: And gay t2 chip
mi3night#2562: Gtg
sajanator3#3333: apple are bassically attacking independent repair people
sajanator3#3333: which is why i dont like them
sajanator3#3333: i dont think other companies go out of their way to do that |
mi3night#2562: Tesla: sweating

thatubuntuguy#5914: lads uhh
thatubuntuguy#5914: i don't think the 7970 is well....
thatubuntuguy#5914: it's doing things.......
thatubuntuguy#5914: I see like this gray line sometimes flicker on the screen for a split second
thatubuntuguy#5914: and nfs payback crashes immediately (brother plays this one not me)
thatubuntuguy#5914: like it shuts the entire machine down black screen
thatubuntuguy#5914: not even a bluescreen
thatubuntuguy#5914: in doom it would start dropping frames like crazy in larger rooms which i think is due to the 3gb vram limitation - as it runs out of vram in the bigger room frame rates fucking crash but im still concerned....
thatubuntuguy#5914: sometimes i get audio abnormalities, but this is youtube streamed to a bluetooth speaker so perhaps its a problem with the bluetooth connectivity...
thatubuntuguy#5914: idk |
JustinXenyx#8854: A. Can you get some video of that if you have the chance?
thatubuntuguy#5914: its intermittent - really hard to catch but ill try
thatubuntuguy#5914: sometimes its horizontal
thatubuntuguy#5914: sometimes its vertical
thatubuntuguy#5914: but it runs the whole length of the screen and it's gray
thatubuntuguy#5914: or width
thatubuntuguy#5914: one pixel wide
TYPEDMEDAL125#9350: gigabyte 2080 gaming oc 8gb or evga 2080 ti 11gb you think its worth getting the ti

TYPEDMEDAL125#9350: i wrote the wrong one
TYPEDMEDAL125#9350: it iis a super one
TYPEDMEDAL125#9350: gigabyte 2080 SUPER GAMING OC 8GB
DarknessFalls229#2286: what price are they at?
TheFifthAce#4128: another important question |
TheFifthAce#4128: whats your cpu
MythologicalZ#3752: He has a 7700K
TheFifthAce#4128: y i ke
TheFifthAce#4128: I mean are you planning to upgrade CPU too?
TheFifthAce#4128: that CPU will definitely hold you back in modern titles
MythologicalZ#3752: I told him to get Zen 2 and wait for RTX drops
MythologicalZ#3752: Apparently hes planning his upgrade around Cyberpunk 2077
TheFifthAce#4128: if he doesn't upgrade CPU, I'd put it at like, a 2060 super/5700 before he runs into problems
TheFifthAce#4128: :uwuPip:
MythologicalZ#3752: He has a 1080 already
TheFifthAce#4128: so then about what I said then
TheFifthAce#4128: :uwuPip:
MythologicalZ#3752: Indeed
TheFifthAce#4128: cpu upgrade time :crabrave:
TheFifthAce#4128: @MythologicalZ https://www.centralcomputer.com/sapphire-vcx-11293-01-20g-pulse-rx-5700-xt-8gb-gddr6-pci-e-hdmi-triple-dp-retail.html |
this is in stock but like I hate how it looks
TheFifthAce#4128: do I buy anyways
MythologicalZ#3752: Evoke is a meme and the THICC has vram issues
MythologicalZ#3752: I'd buy it
TheFifthAce#4128: but powercolor is gonna release red dragon soon
TheFifthAce#4128: :sadman:
