DarknessFalls229#2286: no
russ_the_b#5525: 1 stick of ram still nothing
DarknessFalls229#2286: thres a bios setting that said what to do after power loss
DarknessFalls229#2286: both slots tried?
DarknessFalls229#2286: without any things plugged in like GPU, HDDs?
russ_the_b#5525: no gpu no hdd 1 stick of ram tried 2 times in both slots still
russ_the_b#5525: Nothing
DarknessFalls229#2286: all power plugs plugged in correctly?
russ_the_b#5525: yes
russ_the_b#5525: its an oem so it would be pretty obvious if any plugs are disconnected
DarknessFalls229#2286: does it have onboard graphics?
russ_the_b#5525: yes it do
russ_the_b#5525: the monitor is fine i tested it aswell
DarknessFalls229#2286: nothing plugged into the back except monitor?
russ_the_b#5525: yes |
russ_the_b#5525: just the monitor nothing else
russ_the_b#5525: *its bare minimum*
russ_the_b#5525: the power cord is plugged ofc
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmmm, then ive run out of ideas
DarknessFalls229#2286: sorry
DarknessFalls229#2286: maybe @JustinXenyx has some insight
russ_the_b#5525: its weird since it worked with everything plugged before i just cleared cmos
russ_the_b#5525: i turned off since and came back the next day to find the same problem but the same solution doesnt work
russ_the_b#5525: so is my pc diagonsed with the dead?
thatubuntuguy#5914: well this certainly is some very strange behavior
Alcyone#2233: is this no post or wont boot?
thatubuntuguy#5914: i think its no post
thatubuntuguy#5914: it does nothing
thatubuntuguy#5914: and then like 3 mins later gpu and other fans decide to go sicko mode
Alcyone#2233: well that pretty much narrows it down to mobo or psu |
thatubuntuguy#5914: yeah
thatubuntuguy#5914: i'd try a different psu
Alcyone#2233: even if it has gpu or ram error it will beep error code
thatubuntuguy#5914: but its an oem -_- is it an atx compliant board?
thatubuntuguy#5914: @russ_the_b
russ_the_b#5525: compliant board?
thatubuntuguy#5914: uhh is it at
thatubuntuguy#5914: *atx
Alcyone#2233: assuming it has a buzzer on the speaker pins, but if there is nothing it can only be connections, power supply or mobo
thatubuntuguy#5914: or is it like those weird dell sffs
russ_the_b#5525: nope its some custom weird hp sff shit
thatubuntuguy#5914: so the psu is like those squashed cuboid ones not the standard atx psus
russ_the_b#5525: with a custom weird psu thats doesnt have a 24pin
russ_the_b#5525: yes
thatubuntuguy#5914: oof |
thatubuntuguy#5914: well i guess the last port of call would be to try a different pc to put your stuff in
thatubuntuguy#5914: if that fixes it it was the psu
thatubuntuguy#5914: if it doesn't, mobo is dead
russ_the_b#5525: either way if mobo or psu i would have to buy both
thatubuntuguy#5914: wait u have to buy them both together?
russ_the_b#5525: no i meant because
russ_the_b#5525: custom mobo and custom psu
thatubuntuguy#5914: ohhhhh ok
russ_the_b#5525: so if any of them is broke i would have to buy the 2
thatubuntuguy#5914: right gotcha
thatubuntuguy#5914: yeah as alcyone said this is basically a mobo or psu or connection issue
Alcyone#2233: I wouldnt invest in repairing an oem machine at all
Alcyone#2233: what socket is it?
russ_the_b#5525: 1150
thatubuntuguy#5914: haswell |
thatubuntuguy#5914: how much is a replacement psu/board combo
thatubuntuguy#5914: you're probably better off with a fresh system
russ_the_b#5525: ivy i think idk what is it named but its 3rd gen
thatubuntuguy#5914: ohhhkay...
thatubuntuguy#5914: yeah its probably not worth investing in repairs for it then
thatubuntuguy#5914: that's 1155
Alcyone#2233: I would buy any x8x/x9x chipset aib board and a standard atx psu if your system doesnt post with the bare minimum connected properly
russ_the_b#5525: x8x ? isnt it z77?
thatubuntuguy#5914: x6x / x7x
thatubuntuguy#5914: those are the 2nd and 3rd gen ones
thatubuntuguy#5914: 1155
Alcyone#2233: pop the components in, run it on a cardboard box until I could afford a atx or matx case (whichever format mobo is cheaper)
russ_the_b#5525: yeah so basically i need a new mobo,psu,case and cooler
Alcyone#2233: you want h81 B85 etc those are the locked 1150 chipsets
Alcyone#2233: there was 90 chipset locked boards as well for broadwell that work. you just need any 1150 board from a name brand that is standard format. whatever is the cheapest if you dont have a K sku since its not worth putting much money into the old 4c limited sockets |
russ_the_b#5525: 2c actually
russ_the_b#5525: i3 3220
Alcyone#2233: oh you have ivy
russ_the_b#5525: i think you missed it when i said that
Alcyone#2233: so you need x7x chipset or an x6x chipset that has had the bios updated
Alcyone#2233: oh I wasnt paying attention, just saw socket 1150, 1155 is sandy/ivy
russ_the_b#5525: welp thanks for the help anyways i will now spend a stupid amount of time lookin for parts online
Alcyone#2233: If you want it to work again and not build a new pc I would again buy a compatable aib motherboard and standard atx psu
Alcyone#2233: where you located?
russ_the_b#5525: the cooler is custom too
russ_the_b#5525: north Africa
russ_the_b#5525: stupidly barren market
Alcyone#2233: the cooler mounting holes are standard though, funky oem coolers will fit
russ_the_b#5525: yeah but its like hooked on the case itself
Alcyone#2233: just unscrew or tear that shit off, you only need the heatsink, motherboard mount and fan |
russ_the_b#5525: its a blower style cooler but the fan is in this stupid plastic shell hooked on the caae only the heatsink that has mounts
russ_the_b#5525: so zipties ?
Alcyone#2233: oh this some kinda thin pc
russ_the_b#5525: yes sff
Alcyone#2233: yeah you could ziptie any fan to the heatsink
russ_the_b#5525: small form factor but not really since they call it microtower aka fuck hp
SuSSudio#2688: That 10900X leak turned out to be true, other presses covering the leak

SuSSudio#2688: Insert dank memes here : https://wccftech.com/intel-core-i9-9900ks-5-ghz-cpu-127w-tdp-october-launch/
Lady Mipha#0611: It’s the **KILL SOMEONE** edition
SuSSudio#2688: 127W base in ur p00r 4ss
SuSSudio#2688: guess how much it'll erect at 5ghz all cores
Lady Mipha#0611: :Hahahahaha: |
wapted#6788: 10900x is x299, not surprising its true
SuSSudio#2688: aahh
HotShot#8006: Anyone know how good the Noctua redux fans are as case fans?
HotShot#8006: I've got the cooler master storm trooper case and I'm cooling a 6700k with a h100iv2 push pull with two sets of noctua fans. (A12x15 and used F12 fans) and I'm going to replace the stock cooler master led fans now with some noctua redux fans to get the noise down and still get cooling.
TheGeekster#8508: They should be fine?
MythologicalZ#3752: :Mainman:
MythologicalZ#3752: Theres your answer
TheFifthAce#4128: horrendous
TheGeekster#8508: It's not the best, but if you have a solid side panel, it isn't gonna affect anything
Impish#5173: :Shit_company: :OmegaxD:
thatubuntuguy#5914: haha yes
HotShot#8006: Thanks for the help. I think I will still get them even though i can afford the better brown and cream ones, but Im also not desperate to change much more as I have almost done my setup and Really the only thing I want to change now is my core parts because I ran out of PCI lanes on Skylake
Illegal Immigrant#3366: Does anyone know how to fix a nintendo ds lite l2 indicator?
Illegal Immigrant#3366: This is probably a bit out of your relm of knowhow, but if you do know i would be very greatful
"Cobs"#1150: no idea pal |
"Cobs"#1150: just buy a new one, they cheap af
Bogrolluser#5568: -l2 indicator?
Bogrolluser#5568: oohhhh
Bogrolluser#5568: its a fuse
Bogrolluser#5568: https://youtu.be/P1CFLbtkMSc
Bogrolluser#5568: a simple google search
Illegal Immigrant#3366: I tried a google search, but it seemed like that didnt relate to the particular issue
Illegal Immigrant#3366: Though i did try my hand at soldering it
Illegal Immigrant#3366: First time i ever sid
Xbox 360 1953#2640: When removing my cpu from my pc I saw this. Anyone know what happened to it? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/624338230782722059/IMG_20190919_161616.jpg
Xbox 360 1953#2640: (the brown stuff)
Alcyone#2233: is it burnt or is that residue from a liquid spill/leak?
Alcyone#2233: which would probably also roast it. could be from dirty fingers if it was still working
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Was still working and I didn't touch the underside after removing it
Illegal Immigrant#3366: good news and bad news on the ds lite. |
good news, i can put a ds lite back together.
bad news, i cant fix a ds lite by soldering

MythologicalZ#3752: https://community.hwbot.org/topic/191538-benchmate-093-is-out-supporting-geekbench-5/
MythologicalZ#3752: Imagine sueing someone because they try to improve your shit show software
SuSSudio#2688: https://twitter.com/momomo_us/status/1175032659673616385
Alcyone#2233: its not just geekbench, there is a timer bug with W10 on some hardware, you can get invalid results or spoof scores. W7 is required for some benches and a bitch to install on newer platforms so the Benchmate team is trying to write a program that will verify the score is accurate. Suing them is some bullshit tho
MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah
MythologicalZ#3752: Theres a petition to have it dropped
MythologicalZ#3752: I don't run it personally so I'm not all that knowledgeable about it |
MythologicalZ#3752: I just mess with obscure SLI/Xfire shit lol
Alcyone#2233: im down for it unless someone comes up with a better solution. If it makes it easier and more people bench, thats a good thing
Alcyone#2233: competitive overclocking has been in decline. I support anything that will keep it alive

Tinybox#9112: if you have a HDD LED Cable like this:
Tinybox#9112: This means.
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/624682213820203009/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: The bottom pin is -
Tinybox#9112: and the top pin is +?
TheGeekster#8508: yep
Tinybox#9112: alright it doesn't matter how I connect the reset switch and power switch if I remember correctly @TheGeekster
Tinybox#9112: I don't know why I'm asking, but I'm just double checking I guess. |
TheGeekster#8508: aye switches don't matter
Lady Mipha#0611: @LaeMat FAT is different from FAT32
LaeMat#0420: Ok
Lady Mipha#0611: FAT being the older model of FAT32
LaeMat#0420: I’m using SD Card Formatter on Mac
LaeMat#0420: (My Family iMac tbh)
LaeMat#0420: So not my own iMac
Lady Mipha#0611: Ok
LaeMat#0420: Now that didn’t work
LaeMat#0420: I forgot the password for admin
LaeMat#0420: Do I uncounted the SD card and remount it?
LaeMat#0420: *unmount
Lady Mipha#0611: No
Lady Mipha#0611: If you’re changing computers yes
LaeMat#0420: Linux won’t let me format the SD card |
Lady Mipha#0611: If it’s in exfat you need a windows computer
LaeMat#0420: Oh
LaeMat#0420: Well shit
Lady Mipha#0611: Microsoft proprietary file system
LaeMat#0420: Booting up my Toshiba laptop then
LaeMat#0420: Since it’s faster than my Dell (HDD wise)
LaeMat#0420: Still laggy at startup
LaeMat#0420: Is NTFS fine?
LaeMat#0420: Windows won’t let me do Fat32
Lady Mipha#0611: Yeah
LaeMat#0420: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/624781009996480512/image0.jpg
Lady Mipha#0611: Oh almost forgot
Lady Mipha#0611: Now try formatting as fat32
Lady Mipha#0611: If possible
Lady Mipha#0611: Because ntfs is read only |
Lady Mipha#0611: In Linux
LaeMat#0420: aaaaaaa
LaeMat#0420: Now my laptop won’t turn on
LaeMat#0420: :ConsiderThis:
Lady Mipha#0611: :ConsiderThis:
LaeMat#0420: I just shut it
Lady Mipha#0611: Probably went to sleep
LaeMat#0420: The space bar, mouse and power button weren’t working

LaeMat#0420: Should I let it scan
BigPierogi#3368: did your laptop just die
Lady Mipha#0611: Yeah
LaeMat#0420: not sure
LaeMat#0420: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/624782157029572654/image0.jpg
LaeMat#0420: Is this bad? |
Lady Mipha#0611: No
LaeMat#0420: phew
LaeMat#0420: well I’ll let it go
LaeMat#0420: @Lady Mipha still can’t format it to Fat32
LaeMat#0420: Should I try another app?
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Does it say write locked or whatever?
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
Lady Mipha#0611: It’s a physical switch on the SD card
Xbox 360 1953#2640: if the switch says its not locked then I think youre fucked
LaeMat#0420: it says not locked
LaeMat#0420: so do I need a new SD card?
Xbox 360 1953#2640: If the switch says it isnt but the pc says it is then I think yeah
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
nacabaro#2138: @LaeMat you need the ntfs-3g package
nacabaro#2138: if you want to write to ntfs |
nacabaro#2138: you can just install ntfs-3g and remount as read-write using the terminal
SuSSudio#2688: Found this on a local fb group, $1922 wasted https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/624905496167448596/FB_IMG_1569059397862.jpg
ChildishMaldwyn.#0802: sheesh
Lady Mipha#0611: :OmegaxD:
Lady Mipha#0611: :Oof:
nacabaro#2138: that image hurts
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
SuSSudio#2688: Indeed it does
SuSSudio#2688: Owner doesn't know a lot about computer building, so he probably put the cpu on the wrong direction & forcefully close the lid.
wapted#6788: just use a bit of glue
ChildishMaldwyn.#0802: use a hammer to bend it back
JustinXenyx#8854: May still be rescuable, but i doubt it @SuSSudio
JustinXenyx#8854: If none of the pins would've been affected it would probably be fine but the moment you fuck with pins you're fucked
SuSSudio#2688: original post got removed, probably he bought a new unit (+ the mobo if ruined aswell)
JustinXenyx#8854: Mobo should still be in tact |
Alcyone#2233: if he put it in the socket backwards and latched the ilm down the pins inside probably got yeeted by the cpu substrate when it origami'd
SuSSudio#2688: Could be :Oof:
SuSSudio#2688: The right side substrate got badly ripped, iirc the owner said system can't detect ram
Alcyone#2233: this is why you RTFM if you don't know what youre doing. not a bad idea to read it even if you do
JustinXenyx#8854: ReadTheFuckingManual? @Alcyone
Alcyone#2233: yee
Alcyone#2233: mobo manual would have had a diagram showing to line the notches in the cpu up with the ones in the socket
My Vice#8522: is there any hope without doing reballing? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/625005851257733171/20190921_133001.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: reballing what? @My Vice
SuSSudio#2688: Looks like the gpu chip
JustinXenyx#8854: Only thing that looks wrong may be the VRM controller + some surrounding components
Alcyone#2233: if it doesnt work first thing id do is take the vrm sink off and give the whole card a scrub with 99% iso, i see a lot of grimy dust and rust
JustinXenyx#8854: look near the bottom of the card, close to that 4 pin (fan?) connector, there are some fried resistors etc
My Vice#8522: oh
My Vice#8522: i think thats oxide |
My Vice#8522: im not the one cleaning itt
My Vice#8522: my pc is doing kernel security failure when i try to install windows
kittycat959#2895: disable secureboot?
kittycat959#2895: dont wipe the keys tho
Perms 🎃🎃#3092: Oh God someone help with my iPhone
kittycat959#2895: @Perms 🎃🎃 what do you need help for
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
Perms 🎃🎃#3092: Ok nvm sorry
Perms 🎃🎃#3092: Basically my iPhone WiFi was greyed out
Perms 🎃🎃#3092: And reset my WiFi settings and shit
wapted#6788: >dont buy iphones
Tinybox#9112: Is the corsair MWE 650 gold any good?
TheGeekster#8508: Probably
Xbox 360 1953#2640: @Tinybox Do you mean coolermaster?
thatubuntuguy#5914: what about a tx650m |
Xbox 360 1953#2640: That seems good
SussyBalls#4615: I have a tx750m (v1) as a spare, got it for cheap because it's third hand with the first owner being a smoker, only use it for testing since it can smell when the fan starts spinning, but it's rather nice
SussyBalls#4615: so the tx650m *should* be a fine unit too
Tinybox#9112: yea I mean cooler master
Rysing Dragoon#5628: Guys I think my GPU died for real
Rysing Dragoon#5628: I checked to see if the sagging was the issue, and I even checked to see if the HDMI cord is fine
Rysing Dragoon#5628: What should I do?
Tinybox#9112: test it in another system, try another pcie port @Rysing Dragoon
Reinstall drivers, (DDU and then reinstall)
Try using some windows repair commands.
sfc /scannow
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
Tinybox#9112: If all that doesnt work see if you can rma it, since it's an RX 560
Tinybox#9112: y know call for warranty ^
Tinybox#9112: ^^All the stuff you can do, at least what I can remember without checking on the internet myself |
Rysing Dragoon#5628: It's working
Rysing Dragoon#5628: I guess it's probably because it's not screwed into the case
Rysing Dragoon#5628: I don't have screws for it that would fit
My Vice#8522: is it good to get a cheap offer on a G29 Wheel with cockpit and shit rather than upgrade a 2600K to a 4790K?
My Vice#8522: i got a 1070 paired with it
and yes i like racing games
russ_the_b#5525: go for the cpu upgrade
russ_the_b#5525: racing stuff gets cheaper as time passes
russ_the_b#5525: and the cpu upgrade is really worth it more
russ_the_b#5525: keep i mind you will also need to upgrade the mobo with the cpu
My Vice#8522: i already got the mobo and stuff
My Vice#8522: but my father said like
"it doesnt gives that much fps but idk, go for it if you can"
My Vice#8522: and no i didnt buy the mobo
it was already here for a while |
russ_the_b#5525: cpu wont give you a BIG fps boost unless your card was bottlenecked by it by it will imporve the pc performance overall and especially with multi-tasking
russ_the_b#5525: also alot of newer AAA games wont run if you have an old cpu
My Vice#8522: oh
TheGeekster#8508: If it's a good offer on the steering wheel compared to normal price, i'd suggest going for that, as that's gonna be far more rare than a CPU
SuSSudio#2688: In racing games it won't be too much of a difference going from 2600K to 4790K
SuSSudio#2688: you just need an adequate video cards for later titles
Shyphlosion#9281: So guys
Shyphlosion#9281: I got a build for ya, something pretty impressive
Shyphlosion#9281: How does $250 sound for a Core i7-4771 under a HYPER 212 EVO, an MSi AFTERBURNER GTX 980 and 16GB of DDR3-1600 RAM all on an MSi B85-G43 GAMING Motherboard with a 775W PSU (bonus, it also has a blue LED fan) and 2 1TB Hard Drives (a WD Black and a Hitachi ULTRASTAR), all bundled up nicely in a PowerSpec G428 case? :Heyyy:
MythologicalZ#3752: You should be more concerned about your PSU especially since OCing Maxwell is basically required since stock is snore,not that a blower card will be that great and a SSD would also be nice but otherwise its a good deal
TheGeekster#8508: It's a locked cpu, that should work, but the PSU would be a good idea to swap out in the future for a more reliable brand
My Vice#8522: is there any good and cheap network card 5ghz that pulls 240MBs easily?
My Vice#8522: from a questionable distance
My Vice#8522: a PCIE one
TheGeekster#8508: Not without decent antennas and access points |
TheGeekster#8508: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/626416621338099732/0BXO-Krt9rSiopn6k.png
My Vice#8522: an tplink ac1300 would do it?
My Vice#8522: it has 2 antennas to plug in
TheGeekster#8508: Eh it should be okay, but you won't get 240mbps over it, unless you're very near to the router, 5Ghz has awful range
My Vice#8522: fck
TheGeekster#8508: 2.4ghz has range, 5ghz has speed
My Vice#8522: but wtf
My Vice#8522: my father uses an alienware laptop
My Vice#8522: near the same place i am
My Vice#8522: he gets even more than 240mbs
My Vice#8522: but i get only 80
TheGeekster#8508: what's your card?
My Vice#8522: its a samsung adapter
My Vice#8522: i dont have a card
My Vice#8522: it is 5ghz |
TheGeekster#8508: laptops have larger surface area for antennas, and that's probably why, USB adapters are notoriously slow
My Vice#8522: but the network card antennas would be more eficient right?
My Vice#8522: if pointed correctly
TheGeekster#8508: generally yeah, if he can get decent signal there, they should generally be better, but can't promise it
TheGeekster#8508: the antennas are omnidirectional, shouldn't make a huge difference
My Vice#8522: well, i guess ill go for it
the motherboard has a decent killer network thing but its LAN not wireless
My Vice#8522: and im too far from the router's room

My Vice#8522: is this too bad for a cheap 480ssd? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/626419361942470686/SmartSelect_20190925-110735_Chrome.jpg
TheGeekster#8508: that's fine but the test size is too small, 4gb could still be hitting cache
My Vice#8522: hm
My Vice#8522: ill get one of these with that network card maybe
My Vice#8522: goldenfir
TheGeekster#8508: what SSD is it? |
My Vice#8522: its a goldenfir
TheGeekster#8508: i... i wouldn't
TheGeekster#8508: oh god no, yeah no don't touch them
My Vice#8522: oh
My Vice#8522: they are the only cheap ones im finding
along some A400
My Vice#8522: and A300
TheGeekster#8508: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/545181464363401216/622423433132769300/2ya0Pt1l_1.jpeg?width=513&height=328
My Vice#8522: too bad
those 6 ones are the only ones i can afford
TheGeekster#8508: It goes back to the previous poster i showed, if you get cheap, you'll pay later on when it prematurely fails
TheGeekster#8508: go down in size
TheGeekster#8508: 240gb instead of 480gb
TheGeekster#8508: more than enough for the OS, programs, games on a hard drive?
My Vice#8522: well i got alot of games that sucks on hd'a |
My Vice#8522: hd's*
My Vice#8522: thats why i wanted ssd's for em

MythologicalZ#3752: There is a tier list in pins
My Vice#8522: well but i dont see these ones
My Vice#8522: i think
TheGeekster#8508: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/622423559448559636/LBFkAp5l.jpeg
TheGeekster#8508: they're NVME drives
TheGeekster#8508: if the drive is purely for games, and you don't give a shit if it craps out, then you could get the goldenfir thing, but i've found nothing but negative reviews online for it
My Vice#8522: lol
maybe i'll pair a nvme 240gb one with an intel 240gb one
My Vice#8522: the network card will be for redownloading and such
My Vice#8522: since i dont have space |
ill have the internet to redownload atleast
My Vice#8522: so yeah ill do the unninstall and download strat
My Vice#8522: if i had an slow internet i would go for 2tb drives and shi**y 480ssd's
TheGeekster#8508: you can migrate downloaded files in steam without redownloading them
My Vice#8522: i play some ~~pirate~~ games too..
My Vice#8522: but yeah i got some spare drives so no problem
My Vice#8522: i think ill try to get a 1tb hard drive later on to store instalations
My Vice#8522: ill try this one, pretty expensive here but yeah, atleast its very fast for the OS and such https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/626422949372624896/SmartSelect_20190925-112144_Chrome.jpg
TheGeekster#8508: do you have an nvme slot free?
TheGeekster#8508: just making sure
My Vice#8522: i dont even use the motherboard yet
My Vice#8522: im gonna get a 4790K for the mobo
My Vice#8522: z97x gaming 3
TheGeekster#8508: okay does have an nvme slot, i'd use that for the OS, then any sata drives you get further down the line for games & bits
My Vice#8522: how the fuck im gonna arrange this?? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/626427765201305620/JPEG_20190925_114104.jpg |
My Vice#8522: i got only 3 energy cables for sata's
My Vice#8522: but i cant put them in a safe way
My Vice#8522: without bending the gpu's pin cable even more
My Vice#8522: it is semi modular but i dont have the rest of the cables
My Vice#8522: i dont like this but if it works then well nothing can go wrong right? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/626429048075059241/JPEG_20190925_114554.jpg

My Vice#8522: i mean
idk if a diagonal position like that would slowly kill it
My Vice#8522: sounds like a myth
im gonna turn it on and see if it goes alright
My Vice#8522: perfect.
My Vice#8522: oh wait what
My Vice#8522: they are not being shown in the system wtf?
Alcyone#2233: if they are raw drives they need formatted first, use disk management, right click the disk>format and assign a drive letter |
My Vice#8522: they already have some files
My Vice#8522: the disk manager doesnt detects them
My Vice#8522: but the bios does
My Vice#8522: well i guess i found what happened
My Vice#8522: its the O.S
wapted#6788: Having a drive like that at a random funny angle (especially a 2.5inch drive) is unlikely to be a problem for a consumers use
wapted#6788: for data centre use WD/Seagate etc recommend drives to be at 0* or 90* (+-5*) but eh
wiryfuture🦀#1706: heya, I'm going to France for a couple days (In about a month) and I'm wondering how I can save money on fx rates (I'm with TSB, and theirs is £1 flat, and 2.5% on top (ew, that's crap), if I were to find something, I'd want to be able to use it from my phone :\
TheGeekster#8508: fx rates? this... this is not the place to get advice on how to change money 😂
wiryfuture🦀#1706: Idk, maybe someone would know about one of those electronic banks that doesn't succ
TheGeekster#8508: your best bet is to go to the banks, i think santander doesn't charge to use your debit card abroad
wapted#6788: revolute and monzo let you spend I think £200 abroad at the market rate without fees (might be more but it is atleast 200)
Hustin#6475: Random question here: Is the noctua u12a better than the u14s?
miklos_akos#1999: Hi, which GPU do you recommend for a Core 2 Quad Q9400?
DarknessFalls229#2286: Nothing higher in terms of performance than a 1050 |
miklos_akos#1999: Thanks
Tinybox#9112: Just a quick question. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627144319370919947/IMG_20190927_160547.jpg
Tinybox#9112: I can directly install a motherboard to these large "standoffs" right?
SuSSudio#2688: Yeah i suppose
DarknessFalls229#2286: should be fine
Tinybox#9112: Some guy is offering me 70 Euros for my P9X79 BOARD, its got a dead ethernet.
But I included a card @Tech Helper
Tinybox#9112: Should I go for it?
Budget#8265: I mean at the end of the day depends son your finances and if you need the money, and odnt want the stuff
Budget#8265: Im not upto date on X79 Value
Tinybox#9112: It's just;
I'd like to upgrade to Ryzen,
A 1600 costs 65 Euros used here.
An AM4 board like a pro4 is about 45 Euros.
Tinybox#9112: I know a 3930k is 40 euros and just as fast as a 1600 |
Tinybox#9112: Plus cheaper ddr3, but x79 is basically a dead platform
Galilool#3398: where exactly is a 3930k as fast as a 1600?
JustinXenyx#8854: I think you should probs take him up on his offer for 70€ tbh
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx
Aight, I offered him 80, ill see what he says if he doesn't respond tomorrow ill tell him 70 is fine.
Quick question, for a switch to work I need to install it on the "switch" thing, and a ground pin?
Or a dummy pin?
Alcyone#2233: for the power switch, case reset and clear cmos, yes
Tinybox#9112: Aight
Alcyone#2233: for a normal electrical switch it will just interrupt the positive wire
Tinybox#9112: Btw alc, um if I'm not sure what is +/- on a HDDLED connector (because my case didn't mark it),
Should I just yolo it?
Or rather just leave it
Alcyone#2233: you dont know the +- of the cable, or the header pins on mobo?
DarknessFalls229#2286: ive got an i5 2320, 8gb ddr3, 1tb HDD system for sale for 150 euro, after a week i only got one bid of 100 euro. Should i accept or wait for another few days or say that for like 110-130 he can have it? |
DarknessFalls229#2286: windows 10 home
Alcyone#2233: Id take the 100 euro unless it was a loss, you can get i5 oems for ~$100 usd here
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, i bought the thing for 5 euro so yeah
DarknessFalls229#2286: i think im gonna say "youve got a deal unless i get a higher bid in the next 4 days"
SussyBalls#4615: lmao how did you get it for 5 euros
DarknessFalls229#2286: flea market
DarknessFalls229#2286: the things you can get from them is so wild
DarknessFalls229#2286: it can be a 5 euro pentium 4 pc, or an i5 system like i got
DarknessFalls229#2286: maybe even better, imagine
SussyBalls#4615: the flea markets i've gone to have been shit, old pottery, utensils or some satellite phone
SussyBalls#4615: did you get them at the very start of the season?
I've never gone to a flea market at the start of the season, always end up there midseason or in the very end
DarknessFalls229#2286: season?
DarknessFalls229#2286: just be there when the thing starts, all the pcs will be gone in the first 20 minutes unless theyre shite
SussyBalls#4615: well by start of the season I mean when the weather clears up and makes flea markets possible, it seems to be when most is sold |
DarknessFalls229#2286: i just go to any in the area if i have time
DarknessFalls229#2286: not shot, never hit
DarknessFalls229#2286: _which is an iteration of never shot, always miss_
thatubuntuguy#5914: what's a flea market
thatubuntuguy#5914: is it basically a fancy name for car boot sale
DarknessFalls229#2286: same thing id say
DarknessFalls229#2286: otherwise id call them "rommelmarkt" which translates to 'junkmarket'
TheFifthAce#4128: wasn't there an important person called rommel
Galilool#3398: Yup. Erwin Rommel, german Generalfeldmarschall. The "desert fox"
BigPierogi#3368: he died
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Problem simplified:
Old laptop , win xp , forgot password and admin has pass
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Any ideas?
EightMegsAndConstantlySwapping#7022: Login in safe mode with command prompt and reset it from there.
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: oh yeah |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Forgot about safe mode with cmd
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Been a while loading tho
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Nvm
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Just opened the moment I said so
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Aaaaaaand it requires password
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: I have an idea tho
TheFifthAce#4128: linux partition time
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: U know when u press Ctrl alt delete and it brings the log on to windows window ? I want to know the exe of that , so that I can rename it in Linux to cmd
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: So when I press Ctrl alt delete
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: It opens cmd
Tinybox#9112: I HATE MY LUCK OOF
Tinybox#9112: moved, cases
Tinybox#9112: then I realized, the audio cable is weird.
Tinybox#9112: plugged it in anyway.
Tinybox#9112: no recognizing at alll |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: just use onboard audio
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: On the motherboard
Tinybox#9112: that's what I'm doing rn
Tinybox#9112: got my extension cord here
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: some cases do that
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: I had that with my old pc
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Its not solvalble I tried
Tinybox#9112: Although there is something very annoying rn :sad_peter:
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Or unless its
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Shorted
Tinybox#9112: one of the case fans is running at 2.5K RPM
Tinybox#9112: Because only the 3 pin connectors on my motherboard support VCC:
TheFifthAce#4128: @Tinybox front panel audio is shit tho
Tinybox#9112: I love using it, it's so convenient y know
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Abstract u know the exe name ? |
Tinybox#9112: although profit on this new case
Tinybox#9112: 3 front panel USB
Tinybox#9112: instead of 2,
Tinybox#9112: I mean 1
Tinybox#9112: And I couldn't use that single connector ALONG with the FRONT panel audio, because it would cause interference
Tinybox#9112: I realized something too,
Tinybox#9112: for some reason after moving cases...
Tinybox#9112: my wifi adapter..
Tinybox#9112: ***starts behaving normally***
Tinybox#9112: It's a bit higher now than it was before..
Tinybox#9112: well I guess this is an okay sacrifice...
Tinybox#9112: although my pc being loud rn, aint, Ill switch out the foxcon fan for one of my sharkoon silent wings, or my AVC PWM fan, because my sharkoon silent wings only run at 1K rpm, and barely pull any air, which is important because this entire case only has 2 case fans.
Alcyone#2233: is it an old case or mobo? there are 2 formats, hd audio and old ac97. you can repin ac97 connector to work with hd audio but it wont mute the speakers when you plug in headphones
Tinybox#9112: It's hard to say,
@Alcyone |
I think it's an older case, an enermax case here.
It's got 2 pins missing. (the blank one + some other one)
Tinybox#9112: So I think it's ac97
Alcyone#2233: google ac97 front panel on hd audio motherboard, there should be some guides to repin or maybe somebody makes an adapter cable now
Tinybox#9112: alright will do
yark#6609: Hello I can't get my laptop to charge, I have tried multiple outlets and nothing has happened. The light for when its charging happens but it doesn't actually charge at all.
yark#6609: I'd like some help figuring out why its happening and if it is able to be fixed.
SussyBalls#4615: hm
try booting it without a battery (still plugged to power)
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Does it boot and not charge
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Or does it not boot at all bec something with the battery
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: oh and guys
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: I was able to open the old xp laptop
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: , through a live Linux CD I went to sda1 (windows partition) and made a cmd copy and renamed to the sticky keys exe and deleted the sticky keys ( who needs it) and booted the laptop through HDD and pressed shift 5 times and cmd !!!!! And changed password |
Tinybox#9112: @Alcyone I don't seem to be able to find any guides, so Ill try following the instructions on my motherboard manual

Lady Mipha#0611: That looks like a 3 pin fan control
Deleted User#0000: I thought that but then idk
Deleted User#0000: dug it out of an old gaming rig
Lady Mipha#0611: The knob on the front would control the speed at which the fan spins
Deleted User#0000: ah fair
Deleted User#0000: seems quite a lot to control one fan lol
Lady Mipha#0611: Hook it into a hub and it would be more
Deleted User#0000: ah yeah I might try that when I rebuilt my rig

SanteRaptor#2609: it started artifacting at boot for a second and then this happened
Budget#8265: Yes?
Budget#8265: is this your main PC? |
SanteRaptor#2609: no
SanteRaptor#2609: new build
SanteRaptor#2609: been working on this for 9 days
SanteRaptor#2609: and now that i booted it again it worked fine
SanteRaptor#2609: rx 570 4gb and a 200ge
SanteRaptor#2609: card has been underclocked by 15% and cpu ocd by 400mhz
Budget#8265: I mean your BCLK Overclocking the 200GE Arent you?
Budget#8265: So revert your CPU Overclock
Budget#8265: Also why is the card underclocked, surely you should just undervolt
SanteRaptor#2609: but i ocd the 200ge a week ago and have tested it intensly ever since,
SanteRaptor#2609: im not sure what it was called
SanteRaptor#2609: the gpu is 15% undervolted due to trying to make the macjine more quiet
SanteRaptor#2609: oh
SanteRaptor#2609: now i just have a black screen
Budget#8265: Ah undervolted not underclocked, right, well it seems you may have gone a bit far with your undervolt |
Budget#8265: If I as you boot up with the iGPU, run DDU to revert the OC, and start again
Budget#8265: IVe had this happen before but with an OC
SanteRaptor#2609: so i cant just do the ab thing to revert it?
Budget#8265: I mean thats what I did when it happened to me
Budget#8265: Windows 10 is fucky with getting into safe mode
SanteRaptor#2609: so ddu, boot with igpu and the install the drivers again?
Budget#8265: Boot with iGPU, Run DDU, and Then Stick your main GPU back in it, and install drivers again
Budget#8265: Takes about 10 mins
SanteRaptor#2609: okay, got it, thanks
SanteRaptor#2609: the card is brand new so im worried
Budget#8265: You undervolted it and then it artifacted, also its brand new, so its udner warranty, it doesent matter
SanteRaptor#2609: the funny thing is that it didnt crash or artifact before today even though its been running test for like 3 days
SanteRaptor#2609: how should i test its stability?
Tinybox#9112: Color coded all my AC97 cables,
(I want to use AC97 on a HD AUDIO MOTHERBOARD) |
My motherboard specifies this; https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627485097641377803/Screenshot_20190928-144135.png
Tinybox#9112: What do I do with the other ac97 cables? @Tech Helper
Do I just plug them out?
Budget#8265: 3D Mark Loop @SanteRaptor
Budget#8265: If its an audio jack just plug it in, we're not google and your borderline abusingthis ping now @Tinybox
Tinybox#9112: No, it's the front panel connector, on the motherboard
Tinybox#9112: Sorry about the ping though
Tinybox#9112: Apparently you need to repin, ac97 to work on hd audio sadly I can't find a guide
Budget#8265: What are you trying to do with the connector,
Tinybox#9112: I just want to plug it in and have it work.
Plugging it in just like that didn't work for me.
Tinybox#9112: Nothing in the bios, with ac97.
Tinybox#9112: Only this manual entry
Budget#8265: Why do you want to use AC97 how old is htis case?
Tinybox#9112: Ahhh it's pretty old, no hd audio on it |
Tinybox#9112: I don't know the exact age
Tinybox#9112: All I know it's old..
Budget#8265: You do know how AC97 audio works, you plug it in to the headers and it loops the audio from the back connectors to the front connectors
Budget#8265: Shutting off the rear connections
Tinybox#9112: So, that's how it works?
Damn.
I guess it would be better to just leave it and wait to get a new case.
Well then, sorry for wasting your time..
And also sorry about the ping 😅
Budget#8265: "AC97" and "HD Audio" reffer to Intel standards for onboard audio. A minor part of those standards is a front-panel audio connector.
However the connectors are only semi-compatible. In particular the handling of plugging in of front panel devices is different.
On AC97 audio to the rear audio output was looped by the front audio output and plugging in a device to the front panel audio output would electrically disconnect the rear audio output from the audio source. If you wanted to use an AC97 motherboard without front panel audio it was nessacery to put jumpers on the audio header to make the rear audio output work.
|
On HDA audio to the front and rear outputs comes from seperate outputs on the audio codec. The pins that were previously used to loop back audio from the front are repurposed as connector-detect pins. It is up to software whether to disable the rear panel audio output when a connector is plugged into the front panel output.
Budget#8265: The ping is alright, but a 2 second google search throws up the same as what I can tell you
Tinybox#9112: Alright then, thanks.
Tinybox#9112: Ill spend more time googling then next time, maybe the basics first.
I mainly just looked for a way to use ac97 on a hd audio panel, and how to repin it.
JustinXenyx#8854: may have been stacked under some heavy stuff during shipment
wapted#6788: ^
SanteRaptor#2609: rma takes 2 weeks, the pc gets picked up at the end of next week and i cant buy a replacement because if they fail to replicate the issue i wont be getting my money back making me run out of money
SanteRaptor#2609: first run of 3dmark......crash....
SanteRaptor#2609: second, result:invalid
SanteRaptor#2609: i have not seen even the tiniest amount of artifacting after thst
SanteRaptor#2609: @Deinsti do you know about airflow?
SanteRaptor#2609: i guess not
sajanator3#3333: Would it be more worth getting an x79 mobo with a Xeon 2689 or and LGA 1155 with an i5 or some LGA 1356 stuff
Abe.#3344: @sajanator3 what will you use it for and do you mean brand new or used? |
sajanator3#3333: Gaming
sajanator3#3333: Imma buy it off AliExpress
sajanator3#3333: @Abe.
JustinXenyx#8854: None of them really @sajanator3
Abe.#3344: And don't buy off AliExpress...
Abe.#3344: Stuff can be fake and/or damaged and I've had experienced with them some being a bit sketch
Abe.#3344: And not allowing returns for damaged goods
sajanator3#3333: Would a e5 2689 bottleneck a r9 290
sajanator3#3333: And also would the 2.6ghz hold be back
JustinXenyx#8854: LGA2011 boards from Ali are junk (they are shitty B and H series chipset boards), 1356 is obsolete and if you can spend enough money for LGA2011 there is no point to getting a 1155 platform
JustinXenyx#8854: No and yes @sajanator3
JustinXenyx#8854: E5 2690V2 owner here, Gaming fucking sucks on it because of the lacking core clock
sajanator3#3333: Because it's £107 for a e5 2689 and a mobo
sajanator3#3333: Oh
Abe.#3344: What's your budget and what do you want to upgrade? |
sajanator3#3333: So I've got like £130
sajanator3#3333: I'm thinking I get the £107 bundle thing
Abe.#3344: So you want to get a mobo and CPU?
sajanator3#3333: And sell my current mobo, ram and gpu
sajanator3#3333: And then get an r9 290
Abe.#3344: So you need a mobo, CPU and ram?
JustinXenyx#8854: R9 290s were pretty pricy last time i checked, i think even RX470's are a better deal
sajanator3#3333: And a CPU cooler which is like £15
sajanator3#3333: @JustinXenyx well I mean they are £70 for me
sajanator3#3333: Because of CeX
SanteRaptor#2609: oi Justin, can i now ask about airflow in a build of mine?
JustinXenyx#8854: That's RX470 money
sajanator3#3333: Huh
JustinXenyx#8854: That's a major rip off for a R9 290
JustinXenyx#8854: @SanteRaptor Sure, go right ahead |
Abe.#3344: What mobo and CPU do you have rn?
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, you don't wanna run a E5 2689 with a 15Quid cooler
sajanator3#3333: 290x is also £70
sajanator3#3333: The cooler looked good
Abe.#3344: What mobo and CPU do you have rn? @sajanator3
sajanator3#3333: My username
sajanator3#3333: Nickname thing
Abe.#3344: Wait nvm
Abe.#3344: I'm stupid lmao
sajanator3#3333: It's fine
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, i think 130 Quid could already get you a basic Ryzen setup
JustinXenyx#8854: So you could upgrade later on
sajanator3#3333: ECC ram is Hella cheap tho
sajanator3#3333: The registered stuff
sajanator3#3333: So I could sell my 12gb ddr3 |
sajanator3#3333: And get like 16gb registered ram
SanteRaptor#2609: so i got this oem case thar has a grill in the side but it ends before reachinh the gpu height. gpu gets air well but it has problems getting it out so i set 2 fans in a rowjust to push the air out so my question is that if we focus on the gpu air and the cpu gets air from the side grill, what way should the yellow question mark fan push air to (im sorry if this is gibberish, im feelin a bit dizzy) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627591533931266065/20190928_195632.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: I mean, why save on RAM if you're gonna buy in a dead platform?
sajanator3#3333: @JustinXenyx because I get more ram
sajanator3#3333: For the same price
Abe.#3344: I agree with Justin
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah but you still get a shitty platform that isn't worth the price
Abe.#3344: About ryzen
Abe.#3344: Was researching
Abe.#3344: https://www.awd-it.co.uk/amd-ryzen-3-2200g-quad-core-3.7ghz-vega-graphics-asus-a320m-k-motherboard-cpu-bundle.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwibzsBRAMEiwA1pHZrs85Wsb-tm2fLIAl7IVmsFdKlSJSq_qzcqM-0utEodsGUKQNL8iQ-BoCUP8QAvD_BwE
Abe.#3344: It doesn't include ram, so you'll need to save a bit more
Abe.#3344: But if you want brand new that's available
Abe.#3344: Used could get you the full setup
Abe.#3344: And lots of upgradability
JustinXenyx#8854: @SanteRaptor I wouldn't try to push air out the front, there's practically no room to do so. I'd use the backfan as an outtake, because that would be the most practical and the most dust-friendly |
Abe.#3344: @JustinXenyx what's the next upgrade I should go for? I'm rocking a 2200g on a B450 board with 2x4gb of 3200mhz ram and a 2gb 960.
Abe.#3344: I'm thinking CPU but idk
JustinXenyx#8854: @Abe. definitely the graphics card
JustinXenyx#8854: Then CPU or RAM
Abe.#3344: Really?
Abe.#3344: What do you recommend?
JustinXenyx#8854: 2GB 960 fucking sucks for today really
JustinXenyx#8854: RX570 lol
Abe.#3344: I'm running a 1080p 60hz panel btw
JustinXenyx#8854: RX570 is perfect for most 1080p stuff rn
SanteRaptor#2609: ive made the front able to push air trough itself faster than the back fan does, also ive tried that before butthe air below the gpu just didnt go anywhere leading to temps rise quickly
Abe.#3344: What graphics card would last the longest in terms of being useable for games? My whole build is upgradability centred, so if I'm buying something I would like it to last a while.
Abe.#3344: Would a Rx580 be better?
Abe.#3344: Or are they too similar in power?
JustinXenyx#8854: RX570 and 580 are pretty similar, the 570 is a lot more attractive for the price though |
Abe.#3344: What's the Nvidia equivalent?
Abe.#3344: I use moonlight a lot
JustinXenyx#8854: GTX1060 6GB
Abe.#3344: Even though I'm an AMD fan boy
Abe.#3344: Ok Ty!
JustinXenyx#8854: Don't you dare buy a 1060 though, they're still way too much
JustinXenyx#8854: especially the 3GB variant
JustinXenyx#8854: 1070's and 1070Ti's are hella cheap though for what they are
Abe.#3344: I'm gonna work at a Pc Repair/hardware selling store after GCSEs, I could probably get a decent deal
Abe.#3344: Less money for hardware lmao
sajanator3#3333: I mean I'd have to save up another £30 for that
SanteRaptor#2609: (also i hot glued one fan to the air tunnel thing so i cant go back if i wanted to)
Abe.#3344: @sajanator3 better to wait and buy something good and worth it rather than spending fast and wasting money.
sajanator3#3333: Would be r3 2200g be better than a e5 2689
sajanator3#3333: I see |
Abe.#3344: Yes, I think
JustinXenyx#8854: For gaming? Fuck yeah
Abe.#3344: In my experience it's pretty good
JustinXenyx#8854: These Xeons are majorly fucked for gaming because they're really limited with IPC
TheFifthAce#4128: isnt that e5
TheFifthAce#4128: sandy
sajanator3#3333: Would that come with a CPU cooler
Abe.#3344: Yes
TheFifthAce#4128: zen+ fucks up sandy
TheFifthAce#4128: :dAB:
SanteRaptor#2609: so if i dont touch the other fans, what way would be better for the gpu temps with the yellow one?
sajanator3#3333: So I'll just have to save up £30 more
Abe.#3344: It comes with the Amd Stealth, which is pretty good
Abe.#3344: Allows a bit of overclocking.
sajanator3#3333: I cba with OCing |
Abe.#3344: It's not difficult
sajanator3#3333: As long as it's around 3ghz
Abe.#3344: Lmao
Abe.#3344: Base is like 3.5ghz
Abe.#3344: Boosts to 3.7ghz
Abe.#3344: I do recommend getting a B450 or at least B350 mobo
Abe.#3344: A320 won't allow much upgradability and is just generally not great
SanteRaptor#2609: i think Justin went away...
SanteRaptor#2609: oh
JustinXenyx#8854: If that's currently the best fan config you've got a back intake isn't gonna do much, because it's just gonna cool the CPU further instead of the GPU
SanteRaptor#2609: my thought process was like maybe it could add additional pressure towards the front of the thibg
SanteRaptor#2609: how would you tryto improve the airflow ftom the gpu?
SanteRaptor#2609: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627595646819631154/20190928_195503.jpg
SanteRaptor#2609: the card is a strix rx 570 4gb
JustinXenyx#8854: Hold on a minute, is that front an really a intel boxed cooler fan strapped onto another fan? |
SanteRaptor#2609: yes
JustinXenyx#8854: That's retarded
SanteRaptor#2609: i needed a case fan cobtrolled trough bios and a fan controlled by the gpu and that was the last 4 pin thing i had
SanteRaptor#2609: i took the idea ftom the pemtium d sleeper i got a while back for free
SanteRaptor#2609: also yes
SanteRaptor#2609: im probably retarded
SanteRaptor#2609: but it fit so nicely in the tube
SanteRaptor#2609: how do i unretard this?
JustinXenyx#8854: Invest like 10-15€ into some arctic fans lol
JustinXenyx#8854: They're really solid budget fans
SanteRaptor#2609: i have arctic fans
SanteRaptor#2609: its just that those are 120mm
JustinXenyx#8854: The thing with the front fans is that one of them is blowing for no reason and you could easily remove one of them while having the same airflow
SanteRaptor#2609: and 3 pin
SanteRaptor#2609: which obe? |
SanteRaptor#2609: obe
SanteRaptor#2609: one
JustinXenyx#8854: the Intel one
SanteRaptor#2609: the logic was that the intel fan would push air constantly to keep air moving as the "gpu" fan starts once the gpu is like 50C
JustinXenyx#8854: You could just have that other one running constantly though
SanteRaptor#2609: wait no
SanteRaptor#2609: the intel one got loud
JustinXenyx#8854: lol
SanteRaptor#2609: okay
SanteRaptor#2609: what now
SanteRaptor#2609: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627599192549752852/20190928_231441.jpg

SanteRaptor#2609: also
SanteRaptor#2609: i doubt you want to know what the cpu is
JustinXenyx#8854: 200GE, i already know it lol |
SanteRaptor#2609: okay good
SanteRaptor#2609: and you know its ocd by 400mhz and is using a am2 cooler
SanteRaptor#2609: AND has mounting points for a secobd fan
SanteRaptor#2609: what do i do now Justin to further unfuck this thinf
JustinXenyx#8854: remove that ungodly plastic tube from the front fan
SanteRaptor#2609: but why
JustinXenyx#8854: It doesn't really do anything good
SanteRaptor#2609: better? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627600696014798863/20190928_232048.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: yup
SanteRaptor#2609: what now
JustinXenyx#8854: How's the front panel looking?

sajanator3#3333: I've heard this cooler is really good
SanteRaptor#2609: front panel? |
sajanator3#3333: From tech YES city
JustinXenyx#8854: @SanteRaptor that plastic thing on the front
JustinXenyx#8854: Because if removed that could improve front airflow, which could make the front fan more usable as an intake fan
SanteRaptor#2609: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627601204221968440/20190928_232238.jpg
SanteRaptor#2609: its high https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627601253647646732/20190928_232248.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: It's alright, but requires a bit more work with thermal paste to achieve the best temps possible @sajanator3
JustinXenyx#8854: Ouch, that plastic is blocking any air from getting in or out lol @SanteRaptor
SanteRaptor#2609: actually its not
JustinXenyx#8854: If removing it isn't an option, drill some holes into it
SanteRaptor#2609: better? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627601835011866635/20190928_232527.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: lol
JustinXenyx#8854: Not much of an improvement, but an improvement anyway
SanteRaptor#2609: it has holes at the bottom that allow air to pass quickly https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627602338823012392/20190928_232648.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: Those holes don't do much for airflow though
SanteRaptor#2609: thats why i had 2 fans, pressure |
SanteRaptor#2609: they passed air trough quite fast
SanteRaptor#2609: so fast i gave tge case legs to allow more air to pass trough
JustinXenyx#8854: That's not too bad then (the case feet thing i mean)
SanteRaptor#2609: so whar now
JustinXenyx#8854: Do a test run with temps now and let me know how they are
SanteRaptor#2609: furmark and p95?
SanteRaptor#2609: cpu is at around 63C and gpu.... oh man, its 80-81
SanteRaptor#2609: its actually 1C higher than before
SanteRaptor#2609: 82C
SanteRaptor#2609: Juuuuuuustiiin
SanteRaptor#2609: 83
SanteRaptor#2609: cpu is at 67.3
SanteRaptor#2609: @JustinXenyx hjälp
JustinXenyx#8854: 1C differences are margins of error, really
JustinXenyx#8854: So you're at basically the same temps as before? |
SanteRaptor#2609: at the end it was 3C above
TheFifthAce#4128: should I just say fuck it and buy a 2070 super instead of a 5700 xt
SanteRaptor#2609: before it was 79-80
TheFifthAce#4128: the drivers for the 5700 xt are just so shite
SanteRaptor#2609: oh man
SanteRaptor#2609: gpu is now at 85C
SanteRaptor#2609: 86
SanteRaptor#2609: justin i dont think 86C is healthy
SanteRaptor#2609: 87
Lady Mipha#0611: 😳
Lady Mipha#0611: That’s not good
JustinXenyx#8854: Hold on
JustinXenyx#8854: take off the side panel
JustinXenyx#8854: That's gonna improve temps a LOT
SanteRaptor#2609: you are aware that im building this pc from an order? not for personal use |
SanteRaptor#2609: 78C
JustinXenyx#8854: Yikes
JustinXenyx#8854: I wouldn't sell a PC with that power supply to be honest
SanteRaptor#2609: it has a 2 year warranty
SanteRaptor#2609: and its way better than my other units
SanteRaptor#2609: also the system takrs like 240w
SanteRaptor#2609: and thats 350w
SanteRaptor#2609: so Justin
SanteRaptor#2609: how do i unfuck this from its current fucked state
SanteRaptor#2609: also why is your "less fucked" idea better if the temps are 8C more than before it
JustinXenyx#8854: There's a lot less bullshit do deal with
SanteRaptor#2609: theres also a lot less to deal with if the system is ded
SanteRaptor#2609: jk love ye
JustinXenyx#8854: lol
JustinXenyx#8854: How are the fans configured? Still front outtake, side intake and back intake? |
SanteRaptor#2609: back outtake as you told me to keep ut like that
JustinXenyx#8854: Alright, how about the use the front one as an intake now?
SanteRaptor#2609: okay sure, wait a minute
SanteRaptor#2609: done
SanteRaptor#2609: how shall we set the fan curve?
TheFifthAce#4128: ma x
SanteRaptor#2609: no thats loud
JustinXenyx#8854: Set it to full and adjust it accordingly
SanteRaptor#2609: done
SanteRaptor#2609: reaches max at 76C
SanteRaptor#2609: wait no
SanteRaptor#2609: wrobg one
SanteRaptor#2609: 41C?
SanteRaptor#2609: done
SanteRaptor#2609: what now |
SanteRaptor#2609: Justin?
JustinXenyx#8854: Well, are they better, worse or the same as before?
SanteRaptor#2609: they are performing at the exact same level as my front outtake system
SanteRaptor#2609: aka 79-80
JustinXenyx#8854: That's pretty decent considering we removed one fan and the plastic tube
SanteRaptor#2609: its quite loud though, but i can optimise that tomorrow
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd bet with some better fans the temperatures could also be improved by 5-10C
SanteRaptor#2609: probably
SanteRaptor#2609: but rn im already at a loss of 300€ so i cant buy fancy noctua fans
JustinXenyx#8854: You don't need fancy fans
JustinXenyx#8854: even some 3-4€ 80mm arctic fans are gonna improve your temps
SanteRaptor#2609: but those areusually 3 pin?
JustinXenyx#8854: You can get them in 4 pin variants
SanteRaptor#2609: also the pc gets picked up on tuesday so unless my local tech shop can get them i cant use em

Deinsti#5907: :FeelsRetardedMan: |
SanteRaptor#2609: oi Justin @JustinXenyx , i have another question related to the airflow
SanteRaptor#2609: theres this grill in the sidepanel, so my question is should i install a 120mm fan to it and what way should it push if i were to install it? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627843444735213568/20190929_152347.jpg
SanteRaptor#2609: im guessing Justin is unavailable so whatabout @Deinsti
Deinsti#5907: Heyup
Deinsti#5907: What way you should install in depends on some factors
Deinsti#5907: Does the case have any fans already installed?
SanteRaptor#2609: 2, obe at the back and one in the front
SanteRaptor#2609: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627844869007867914/20190929_123010.jpg
Deinsti#5907: Aah so you have it like that
Deinsti#5907: I guess you can; wouldn't make as much of a difference but if you want to - then I would say outwards
Deinsti#5907: Judging by the grill position it would work better in union with the back fan to extract the air so it would slightly improve circulation
SanteRaptor#2609: okay, im asking because the 2 fans are connected to system temo and that cools down way too slow compared to gpu and cpu temps
Deinsti#5907: In that case my statement stands
Deinsti#5907: An outward blowing fan would be alright
Deinsti#5907: Would pull the hot air faster out of the case and help with temps |
SanteRaptor#2609: problem though
SanteRaptor#2609: the last 3 pin connector in the machine is in the gpu
Deinsti#5907: No fan headers left?
SanteRaptor#2609: atleast if ive read the manual correctly
Deinsti#5907: If you don't have any left, you could try and get a molex to fan adapter
Deinsti#5907: https://www.amazon.com/CRJ-4-Pin-Molex-Sleeved-Adapter/dp/B07DPXR8KS/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3PPXU5Q3O6FXH&keywords=molex+to+fan+adapter&qid=1569760726&sprefix=molex+to+fan%2Caps%2C230&sr=8-3
Deinsti#5907: something like this
SanteRaptor#2609: could i mod a 3 pin fan to molex myself or is that not recommended?
Deinsti#5907: I wouldn't recommend it
SanteRaptor#2609: okay
SanteRaptor#2609: and connecting to gpu is not an option?
Deinsti#5907: Soldering things together in a PC can have weird side effects
Deinsti#5907: As in connecting the fan to the gpu's fan header?
SanteRaptor#2609: it has a 4 pin ex fan slot at the back
SanteRaptor#2609: strix 570 4gb |
SanteRaptor#2609: *rx 570
Deinsti#5907: Your fan is 3 pin?
SanteRaptor#2609: yes
SanteRaptor#2609: unless i steal one from my main rig
Deinsti#5907: It won't work, apparently the connector on the GPU needs a 4 pin fan to function
SanteRaptor#2609: so do i steal one from main machine?
Deinsti#5907: That or get the molex adapter
SanteRaptor#2609: OR
SanteRaptor#2609: do i use my 200ge stocl cooler fan instead?
Deinsti#5907: as in remove it from the heatsink?
Deinsti#5907: @SanteRaptor 200GE Cooler fan is 70mm, too small
SanteRaptor#2609: hmmmm
SanteRaptor#2609: where did you read that it needs a 4 pin fan @Deinsti?

SanteRaptor#2609: umm
Deinsti#5907: First one is RX460, but the Fan header tech is similar so
SanteRaptor#2609: at 65C the fan started spinning
JustinXenyx#8854: @Deinsti Soldering only causes issues if done improperly/if its a major hackjob
Deinsti#5907: I would still consider it risky and a source of headaches if something does go wrong
JustinXenyx#8854: That is true lol
SanteRaptor#2609: it go spinny https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627852925527654400/20190929_160256.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, a major problem with molex is that you'll usually have the fan blasting at a full 100%
Deinsti#5907: That depends on the fan
Deinsti#5907: I used to have a molex to fan header adapter with a case fan and it ran at more 60% speed
SanteRaptor#2609: Justin you lovely individual, does thus fan work even though its 3 pin?
JustinXenyx#8854: Where will you be connecting the fan? on the 570?
SanteRaptor#2609: yes
SanteRaptor#2609: its currently connected to it
JustinXenyx#8854: Will work, but no PWM control |
JustinXenyx#8854: I use 2pin fans on my GTX660 rn lol
Deinsti#5907: Interesting
Deinsti#5907: I've actually had a mobo refuse to power up a 3 pin fan connected to a 4 pin
SanteRaptor#2609: frick
SanteRaptor#2609: the side wouldnt close with the fan in
Deinsti#5907: Collides with the GPU?
SanteRaptor#2609: the thicc af front panel cables and the 24 pin cable

sajanator3#3333: So like I'm aiming to get it for £70?
sajanator3#3333: Is that too much to pay for that?
MythologicalZ#3752: That's fine |
JustinXenyx#8854: 70 quid is what you should pay for a decent 470
SussyBalls#4615: How do you guys value individual components that you got from a bundle?
JustinXenyx#8854: money spent / amount of items i got
JustinXenyx#8854: that's the simplest way
SussyBalls#4615: seen that method, easy and simple but perhaps a little inaccurate in some cases
JustinXenyx#8854: You can also base it on relative part value. Search up what the part goes for, recalculate that into percentage and then recalculate with your current price
SanteRaptor#2609: oi Justin, is there any place in this case where a gpu connected 200ge stock cooler fan would be useful https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627905692287631370/20190929_123010.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: Not really
SanteRaptor#2609: okay, whatabout even kinda?
SanteRaptor#2609: also have you seen my custom frontpanel ports?
JustinXenyx#8854: Don't think so
SanteRaptor#2609: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627906728205352971/20190923_214419.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627906729262186516/20190923_214425.jpg
Exomilav#5434: :Oof:
SanteRaptor#2609: it works and doesnt look incredibly horrid
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh that's kinda smart hiding it like that |
SanteRaptor#2609: thank you
SanteRaptor#2609: do you have any last minute ideas about how to improve this build?
MythologicalZ#3752: I'd redo the cables
MythologicalZ#3752: Then zip tie them together
SanteRaptor#2609: the white cables cant be moved
SanteRaptor#2609: i need shorter sata cables
SanteRaptor#2609: or
SanteRaptor#2609: i can steal them from other pcs
SanteRaptor#2609: slowly getting there https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627915555566911519/20190929_201147.jpg
MythologicalZ#3752: Looks way better
SanteRaptor#2609: thank you
DarknessFalls229#2286: dat ROG strap though
SanteRaptor#2609: i have a second one if you want me to put that in too
DarknessFalls229#2286: sure why not
SanteRaptor#2609: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627917669278154832/20190929_201959.jpg |
DarknessFalls229#2286: gnise
JustinXenyx#8854: second one is unnecessary lol
SanteRaptor#2609: question, why do some sata power cables have a extra wire going trough them and some dont?
DarknessFalls229#2286: thats the 3.3v line
JustinXenyx#8854: You mean like the ones with 4 wires and then 5 wires?
SanteRaptor#2609: yes
DarknessFalls229#2286: cheapo connectors dont have them
DarknessFalls229#2286: or molex adapters
JustinXenyx#8854: Sometimes it's skipped to cut on wires, or gets skipped because 3.3V aren't needed
SanteRaptor#2609: okay
DarknessFalls229#2286: so usually you do want that voltage line
SanteRaptor#2609: i just hid the one line without it on the top dvd drive case
DarknessFalls229#2286: sounds good
SanteRaptor#2609: any other ideas about making this seem nicer?
DarknessFalls229#2286: try to tuck the cables as far back as they can |
DarknessFalls229#2286: id also recommend to route the CPU power cable above the CPU cooler right below the PSU so it doesnt go across the Motherboard
DarknessFalls229#2286: but its aesthetic anyway
SanteRaptor#2609: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627920164368810002/20190929_203021.jpg
SanteRaptor#2609: oh
SanteRaptor#2609: right below psu
SanteRaptor#2609: sorry
DarknessFalls229#2286: kinda like this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627920532209270844/unknown.png
DarknessFalls229#2286: but dont bother if you want to lose more zipties
SanteRaptor#2609: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627920829426171914/20190929_203259.jpg
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah i guess thats good
DarknessFalls229#2286: as i dont see any mounting holes above the mobo
SanteRaptor#2609: yep
SanteRaptor#2609: anything else?
DarknessFalls229#2286: cant really see any improvements
SanteRaptor#2609: what about programs? |
DarknessFalls229#2286: wdym?
SanteRaptor#2609: preinstalled software
DarknessFalls229#2286: just remove any preloaded games
DarknessFalls229#2286: or just folllow one of those 'optimise windows 10' videos
SanteRaptor#2609: thank you for helping me DarknessFalls and Justin
DarknessFalls229#2286: no problem, just giving my 2 cents
sajanator3#3333: I payed £72
DarknessFalls229#2286: for what, if i may ask?
SanteRaptor#2609: the gpu
sajanator3#3333: @DarknessFalls229#2286 rx 470 4gb
sajanator3#3333: @DarknessFalls229
DarknessFalls229#2286: sounds pretty good
SanteRaptor#2609: also
SanteRaptor#2609: i moved from the big speaker to the smol speaker so that also helps with how it looks
DarknessFalls229#2286: cool stuff |
sajanator3#3333: https://youtu.be/vnLR4qZG5yA
sajanator3#3333: Uhh the r9 290 seems better than the Rx 470....
sajanator3#3333: Would it be enough of an upgrade from the hd 7970?
DarknessFalls229#2286: tested with an fx 8320?
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmmmm
JustinXenyx#8854: ^
JustinXenyx#8854: that's pretty sketch in itself
DarknessFalls229#2286: also, 290 power hungry and space heater
JustinXenyx#8854: + Be careful with those YT benching videos
JustinXenyx#8854: Some of them show artificial or fake results
sajanator3#3333: Oh ok
BigPierogi#3368: russian
wapted#6788: ye lot of those just bullshit some numbers for the sake of getting some viewers
sajanator3#3333: Would getting a ryzen 5 1400 for £50 be a better idea than the r3 2200g
JustinXenyx#8854: Definitely, considering you aren't/wouldn't be using the integrated graphics of the 2200g |
SussyBalls#4615: the 2200g also uses the original zen cores iirc so you'd only loose performance by going with a non ht chip
SussyBalls#4615: not zen+, just original zen https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/627951277296320525/unknown.png
SussyBalls#4615: so i did remember correctly, nice
TheFifthAce#4128: + the 2200g is a single ccx
TheFifthAce#4128: while the 1400 is dual ccx
TheFifthAce#4128: so it has double the cache
TheFifthAce#4128: so the 1400 is a way better idea
sajanator3#3333: How do you package up a motherboard
sajanator3#3333: Like I know you get an antistatic bag thing
sajanator3#3333: But what else
Exomilav#5434: I have an issue with my CPU not being detected by mobo then being detected when I turn my PC off and on again. I think it's an issue with B450 Tomahawk BIOS but it could be something else
Exomilav#5434: I have BIOS version 7C02v18 on the Tomahawk
SuSSudio#2688: Destroys CSL-X in performance, power consumption, & heat.
https://youtu.be/HuLsrr79-Pw
TheFifthAce#4128: ye |
miklos_akos#1999: And does it cost less? @SuSSudio
miklos_akos#1999: Haven't watched the video
SuSSudio#2688: @miklos_akos Way less, around $4K cheaper than a single 8280 Platinum
miklos_akos#1999: That's a big price difference
Galilool#3398: and outperforms a dual setup with those cpus
SuSSudio#2688: hell even a dual 8280 stands no chance against a single 7742
miklos_akos#1999: Intel fucked it up **again**
SuSSudio#2688: they're fucked up since zen 2 came
miklos_akos#1999: I remember when JayzTwoCents had an i7-7980xe (i always mess up the model) and the cpu overheated with his watercooling
miklos_akos#1999: The heat spreader wasn't flat
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Oof
miklos_akos#1999: https://youtu.be/EALCvMxvLyA
miklos_akos#1999: Here's the video in question
miklos_akos#1999: I think that's unacceptable from a company
miklos_akos#1999: He just used sandpaper to fix it |
miklos_akos#1999: Lmao
SuSSudio#2688: well what'd you expect from a continually refreshed old architecture
SuSSudio#2688: 14nm is one of the underlying problem
miklos_akos#1999: Intel should redo their chip fab like how AMD did
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Dat architecture is shite.
SuSSudio#2688: AMD works with TSMC for their zen manufacturing
SuSSudio#2688: AMD is fabless currently
miklos_akos#1999: The engineering sample ryzen killed the i7-6700
Zombiekiller5072#6447: *I wish I had gotten a Skylake series cpu and not Kabylake. My cpu is a hot boi.*
miklos_akos#1999: Try using some sandpaper to flatten the heatspreader @Zombiekiller5072
Zombiekiller5072#6447: *I don't have any sandpaper and I donxt have extra thermal paste on hand to replace it.*
Galilool#3398: Huh? Didn't Skylake have the same heat issues?
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Maybe I can try deliding it and replacing the shitty stuff Intel used.
SuSSudio#2688: Skylake was the last 'big change' for the Core architecture & was clocked lower than its successors
Zombiekiller5072#6447: *it 200Mhz lower then Kabylake.* |
SuSSudio#2688: Intel only raised few percentages since skylake in architectural improvements, most percentages comes from extra cores & higher frequency
SuSSudio#2688: So Skylake > Skylake tweak > skylake tweak 2 > skylake tweak 3 (CFL-R)
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Yeah.
JustinXenyx#8854: @miklos_akos Intel generally needs a new architecture. All their stuff starting with Sandy Bridge is affected by some issue (Be it Meltdown, Spectre or anything else) and since Sandy there was no big architectural change
JustinXenyx#8854: Even their 10nm arch is going to be based on that old architecture
Zombiekiller5072#6447: *They just need to go to AMD to get that new architecture. Or just pull their heads out of their asses and release 10nm or even 7nm.*
JustinXenyx#8854: Again, 10nm is still going to based on what is basically Sandy Bridge. While Sandy is a good architecture, it has a lot of modern security flaws that are related to the architecture itself and those security flaws are something that as far as i know, aren't fixable without a major architectural redesign
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Eh fair. I know I should probably just go to Ryzen soon, but my 7700K hasn't let me down yet so J'm constantly holding back doing that and just upgrading my gpu. *I plan on getting a 2070 Super in the next few months.*
Zombiekiller5072#6447: *I still don't know if that's a good idea for me or not.*
JustinXenyx#8854: I wanted to upgrade at around christmas, but i'm being forced to sooner than i want, because my X79 board is as dead as a rock
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Oof.
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, i'd rather upgrade your CPU than the GPU, 4 cores with 8 threads are starting to die out in the gaming sector, pairing that with a 2070 Super is sub-optimal IMO
Zombiekiller5072#6447: I was like, 'Do I get a 2070 Super, or upgrade to Ryzen 3rd gen?'
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Also, *I do have the cpu oc'ed to 5Ghz just so you know.*
JustinXenyx#8854: I think the Pentium G3258 (overclockable Haswell dualcore) proved well enough, that high clock speeds can't compensate for a lack of cores lol |
Zombiekiller5072#6447: I mean, my cpu hasn't limited me in anyway so far.
SuSSudio#2688: The key is, stage up when your quad core cpu starts to show signs of processing struggle in upcoming games
Zombiekiller5072#6447: That's my plan.
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Only time I can see my cpu struggle is when I play Arma 3. But I expect that since it's not really a well optimized game, and I use like, 30+ mods. But even then when I start to stuggle to get at 30fps my cpu is only being like %70 used. And my gpu is being like %50 used.
SuSSudio#2688: yeah it's still usable
Zombiekiller5072#6447: Yeah. Nothing is really taxing it reallt hard just yet. I think I still got a few more years left on it.
SanteRaptor#2609: i mean my sis has a 6600k and that boi is running games more than well enough
SuSSudio#2688: what games does she play
Galilool#3398: candy crush:Hahahahaha:
Alcyone#2233: per core performance is the same at equalized clocks for all the lake arch, mature process has just improved the clock ceiling. unless its stuttering I would just keep the 7700k
BigPierogi#3368: @Galilool what cpu does she have
Galilool#3398: no idea, i was just making a candy crush joke
BigPierogi#3368: o
BigPierogi#3368: im retardsed
Galilool#3398: my brother though. he is expecting to run beat saber on his notebook with 7500u and mx150 |
BigPierogi#3368: b
BigPierogi#3368: r
BigPierogi#3368: u
BigPierogi#3368: h
BigPierogi#3368: my 6300u doesnt even run csgo that well
BigPierogi#3368: but that could be due to intel hd shit
Galilool#3398: even though it already struggles on my other brothers' pc with i5 4690 and 1060 3g
Galilool#3398: my PC with r2600 and rx580 was the only pc in our home that could handle it
BigPierogi#3368: THe nUmbEr iS hiGhEr So iT muSt bE beTeR
Galilool#3398: now it'll probably run even better on my 5700XT
BigPierogi#3368: not probably
BigPierogi#3368: will
Galilool#3398: the 580 already hit 90 fps but got hot enough to make some bratwurst
Alcyone#2233: if you have a low power apu or are using intel hd, try limiting max cpu usage in windows power settings to 99%. My old laptop would hit power limit and throttle both cpu+igp. 99% stopped it from hitting max turbo and the igp stayed at max clockspeed netting more fps
TheGeekster#8508: That's actually a pretty clever idea :Smart: |
Galilool#3398: on my thinkpad t430 with i5 3320m and hd 4000 bith of them run at max speeds (3,3 ghz cpu and 1,3 ghz gpu) and it still couldn't run anything since windows decided to block one core for the OS
Galilool#3398: switched to linux and boom- everything ran better
kittycat959#2895: @Galilool commit gentoo, you know you want to
Galilool#3398: oh god
Galilool#3398: no
kittycat959#2895: :GWfroggerHyperXD:
Galilool#3398: manjaro forever
Galilool#3398: or lubuntu
kittycat959#2895: i prefer my os to be stable so its Debian for me
kittycat959#2895: well i actually run windows because it works
kittycat959#2895: but i run debian on my slow laptops
Galilool#3398: lubuntu is as stable as the dome of cologne
kittycat959#2895: true
kittycat959#2895: i like mx linux
Galilool#3398: I use lubuntu even on more powerful machines as it's very resource-friendly and easy to use |
BigPierogi#3368: lubuntu is used for old xp machines
BigPierogi#3368: if you still wanna use them
BigPierogi#3368: or if grandpa stil lwants to
Galilool#3398: i use my thinkpad for writing primarily and run lubuntu off of an ssd. booted up in 5 seconds
kittycat959#2895: i run windows 10 on my t480s
Galilool#3398: it definitely is able to run win10, I just don't like windows/microsoft in general
Galilool#3398: kind of ironic, considering I use win10 on my main rig
kittycat959#2895: then again gaming
kittycat959#2895: windows 10 is just easier for games
Galilool#3398: but will probably do a manjaro KDE dual boot soon
kittycat959#2895: give mx a go, its super fast
Galilool#3398: Manjaro isn't far away from win10 anymore
Galilool#3398: especially with AMD hardware
Galilool#3398: which I use
kittycat959#2895: ive had all amd since 2014 in my main rig |
Galilool#3398: you settled for AMD in 2014? Poor person...
kittycat959#2895: @Galilool thats correct, i was in year 7, not allowed to buy used and wanted to play minecraft
kittycat959#2895: rig did me well and got me into enthusiast computing
Galilool#3398: what you got now?
kittycat959#2895: r7 1700
kittycat959#2895: and 16gb of trident z rgb
Galilool#3398: GPU?
kittycat959#2895: r9 380
Galilool#3398: wow.
Galilool#3398: *slow clap*
kittycat959#2895: why a slow clap?
Galilool#3398: ryzen 1700. an 8-core workstation CPU paired with a r9 380
kittycat959#2895: yes because i dont need gpu performance.....
kittycat959#2895: i game at 1080p
kittycat959#2895: and use my pc mostly for blender |
Galilool#3398: I also game at 1080p. But the Blender argument is kind of good.
kittycat959#2895: and yes i know about open cl
kittycat959#2895: i mean does csgo really need a new gpu?
kittycat959#2895: all my games are at high / ultra
kittycat959#2895: even battlefield 5 runs at high with ultra textures @Galilool
BigPierogi#3368: csgo likes cpus more
BigPierogi#3368: than gpus
BigPierogi#3368: like it depends more on the cpu
kittycat959#2895: yeah ik, ik
Galilool#3398: i actually used a r9 380 for a few weeks waiting for my Xt to arrive. I don't want to use that card ever again.
kittycat959#2895: was it 2gb @Galilool
kittycat959#2895: cause mine is a 4gb 380x
Galilool#3398: I used the 4 gb one
kittycat959#2895: must have had bad drivers or something
kittycat959#2895: mine runs most stuff at high or ultra |
Gamefreak924#5901: anyone know troubleshooting with installing Windows on macOS via bootable flash drive? Trying to boot the flash drive under the boot screen (alt during startup) and each time I select EFI, which should be the boot media, it just freezes for a minute and then boots into the macOS sign in screen.
miklos_akos#1999: Did you try using bootcamp? Dumb question ik @Gamefreak924
MacRick#3873: Are the GTX 1060 6Gb or RX 580 8 gb still worth it?
JustinXenyx#8854: 1060? Fuck no
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
JustinXenyx#8854: RX580? Maybe, but the RX570 is usually much better priced with only a sight performance hit, which is MORE than acceptable for the price difference
MacRick#3873: What about the 1660 / 1660ti?
JustinXenyx#8854: 1660Ti > 1660
JustinXenyx#8854: the price difference between them just doesn't justify buying a 1660
JustinXenyx#8854: And the price difference will get even closer the older the cards get, similar with how it has been with the 750 and 750Ti or the 1050 and 1050Ti
Lady Mipha#0611: ^^
MacRick#3873: thanks for the info!
Gamefreak924#5901: If a laptop (XPS L501x) won't boot with anything other than 2GB in one memory slot, should it be assumed that there is something wrong with the memory controller?
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, but keep in mind the memory controller is in the CPU, not the laptop
Gamefreak924#5901: thank youu |
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, is it a specific slot, or does it work on every slot with a 2gb ram stick? @Gamefreak924
Gamefreak924#5901: Works on either. One 2GB stick it seems
JustinXenyx#8854: odd
Exomilav#5434: I have an issue with my CPU not being detected by mobo then being detected when I turn my PC off and on again. I think it's an issue with B450 Tomahawk BIOS but it could be something else
I have BIOS version 7C02v18 on the Tomahawk
miklos_akos#1999: @Gamefreak924 do you have any other RAMs to test it out?
Gamefreak924#5901: Yeah other sticks were tried
miklos_akos#1999: Weird
Gamefreak924#5901: Yeah, no worries though
BlandishlyPlain#2100: i think windows just broke my audio driver with an update
BlandishlyPlain#2100: https://gyazo.com/b0e3950b1c2972baf805b1ff14e06230
BlandishlyPlain#2100: well no audio for me today boys
BlandishlyPlain#2100: @ me if you know a fix plz
JustinXenyx#8854: It looks like you're running the stock windows audio driver
JustinXenyx#8854: Maybe try installing your device specific audio driver? |
BlandishlyPlain#2100: that maybe a bit of a problem but
BlandishlyPlain#2100: i can try and find it
SuSSudio#2688: @Gamefreak924 It says there the min. memory is 2GB, goes all the way up to 8GB, now the question is, which cpu does the laptop run in your variant?
Also what is your current BIOS version?
The latest version of the BIOS is the A08 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/628718678787227648/Screenshot_20191002-052116.png
Gamefreak924#5901: uH
Gamefreak924#5901: I didn't expect this much support because this was help with a laptop at my workplace >__>'
Gamefreak924#5901: It was an i7 2nd gen I think
Exomilav#5434: :nibbawhat2:
Exomilav#5434: I have an issue with my CPU not being detected by mobo then being detected when I turn my PC off and on again. I think it's an issue with B450 Tomahawk BIOS but it could be something else
I have BIOS version 7C02v18 on the Tomahawk
TheFifthAce#4128: >tomahawk
TheFifthAce#4128: :kok:
TheFifthAce#4128: 3rd gen on msi, especially b450, is a nightmare |
Exomilav#5434: :Oof:
Exomilav#5434: lmao i've only heard the Tomahawk being good as a BIOS update then use 3rd gen board
Exomilav#5434: what other boards were there
TheFifthAce#4128: asus
TheFifthAce#4128: msi boards had countless issues with bricking, boost clocks, etc
Exomilav#5434: i think i have the boost clock issue
Exomilav#5434: and the not detected and detected issue
TheFifthAce#4128: asus boards had the best luck with bios updates
Exomilav#5434: asus is asus tho
Exomilav#5434: :Hahahahaha:
TheFifthAce#4128: overpriced for a reason
Exomilav#5434: VRM meme (not really applicable to the 3600 but what ever) and expensive
Exomilav#5434: @TheFifthAce oh also no other B450 boards besides MSi had BIOS flashback, which was a big factor for me because i had no 2nd gen Ryzen chip
TheFifthAce#4128: asus
TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/628818044285616129/unknown.png |
Exomilav#5434: premium meme boards tho
Exomilav#5434: so B450 Tomahawk was pretty much my only option except Gaming Pro Carbon and X470 M7
JustinXenyx#8854: Now i'm really happy that i'm buying a Crosshair VI Hero :Hahaha:
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, i might just try a reflash with a newer (or older) bios to check if your current bios is just meming around @Exomilav
SuSSudio#2688: :DickPick:
Exomilav#5434: :Bruhh:
Exomilav#5434: :TheGoods:
Exomilav#5434: @JustinXenyx the one I have is the first one that supports Ryzen 3rd gen
Alcyone#2233: :dAB:
SussyBalls#4615: holy shit
and i was happy about my z68, i7 2600 (non k, sad), 8gb, cooler + z97p with unknown haswell, 8gb and stock cooler for 100 euros shipped
SussyBalls#4615: the seller just described it as a "small" cpu, maybe a 3258 considering the z97
JustinXenyx#8854: Those G3258s sadly go for a lot more money than they should
Alcyone#2233: 2600 non k can still set +400mhz above default turbo+ bclk a bit, so its not a total loss
JustinXenyx#8854: I wanted to get one to OC but they're all almost original retail price |
SussyBalls#4615: yeah some retard about 20km from me is trying to sell one for 66 dollars
SussyBalls#4615: (g3258)
TheFifthAce#4128: I got a p67 extreme4 gen3, 2500k, 8gb 1866, along with a 570 amp, full athlon 64 system, etc for 20$
SussyBalls#4615: holy shit
TheFifthAce#4128: sold the board, cpu, and ram, next day for 140$
TheFifthAce#4128: :kok:

SussyBalls#4615: @JustinXenyx this is "somewhat" cheap https://www.ebay.com/itm/G3258K-G3260-pentium-lga-1150-4-gen-hashwell-intel-cpu-3-3ghz-SBLOCCATO/264448152302?hash=item3d925692ee:g:k9gAAOSw3YBdVnpB
JustinXenyx#8854: that listing is a bit too sketch for me @SussyBalls
Galilool#3398: hashwell, maybe you get a gram with it
SussyBalls#4615: perhaps but buyer protection should do its job
SussyBalls#4615: regarding buyer protection i completely forgot about some fan splitter i ordered in early august
SussyBalls#4615: has not arrived yet
SussyBalls#4615: uhmm bruh? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/629009083185496084/unknown.png
JustinXenyx#8854: uh |
JustinXenyx#8854: i'd claim a instant refund
SussyBalls#4615: hm not the first time somebody has not received https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/629012415786385438/unknown.png
SussyBalls#4615: Just going to get a refund, I sold the computer that I needed a fan adapter for anyways and it's such a niche product too
Deinsti#5907: @SussyBalls Whose's the seller?
SussyBalls#4615: 3c-base
SussyBalls#4615: also got 2 sata to 6 pin adapters from a seller called mangosorange that has not arrived either, both were ordered on the same date
SussyBalls#4615: refunded both
Deinsti#5907: oof
miklos_akos#1999: So uh, my PSU died (my PC won't even power on) and I need a replacement PSU
Is thid a good pick? (I literally have enough for that PSU and shipping)
https://www.pcx.hu/chieftec-iarena-500w-gpc-500s-oem-tapegyseg-900669
TheFifthAce#4128: chieftec literal garbage
TheFifthAce#4128: @miklos_akos give me a link to your used websites
TheFifthAce#4128: and budget
DarknessFalls229#2286: oh boy |
TheFifthAce#4128: woh wait
TheFifthAce#4128: waot waiwa tawit
DarknessFalls229#2286: when i right clicked the image to see it in aseparate tab i noticed, 'send to SM _XXXX'
TheFifthAce#4128: that iarena isnt as bad as I remember but still shit!
TheFifthAce#4128: max 400w output because overvoltage meme
TheFifthAce#4128: :kok:
DarknessFalls229#2286: i right clicked that and now someone got sent that page of the PSU
TheFifthAce#4128: send a link to local used market sites
TheFifthAce#4128: I will find good psu
miklos_akos#1999: The only hardware related marketplace is https://hardverapro.hu
miklos_akos#1999: https://vatera.hu barely has any used PC stuff
TheFifthAce#4128: whats the word for power supply in your langauge
miklos_akos#1999: tápegység
miklos_akos#1999: And the problem is that I have 40€ in total (~13k HUF)
miklos_akos#1999: Which means I need to pay for the PSU and shipping in one go with that money |
TheFifthAce#4128: what are you trying to power
DarknessFalls229#2286: dunno about your market but for 50 euro including shipping i got a 1200 watt PSU
miklos_akos#1999: A Q9400 with 3HDDs an ODD and like in a week a 1050Ti @TheFifthAce
TheFifthAce#4128: lol
TheFifthAce#4128: so then you only need like 350w
DarknessFalls229#2286: 300 watt is minimum for you id say
miklos_akos#1999: The 420W one couldn't power the Q9400
DarknessFalls229#2286: go find some cheap FSP 500 watt thing or something
miklos_akos#1999: I had to underclock lol
TheFifthAce#4128: sounds like you had a shitty psu
DarknessFalls229#2286: what PSU was it?
TheFifthAce#4128: 420w is a weird number
DarknessFalls229#2286: ^
TheFifthAce#4128: sounds like they couldnt make 450w and had to go "haha 420 weed number buy it"
TheFifthAce#4128: anyways |
TheFifthAce#4128: https://hardverapro.hu/apro/elado_minosegi_tapegysegek_tisztan_atnezve_hibatla_14/hsz_1-50.html
TheFifthAce#4128: either of the be quiets would be fine
TheFifthAce#4128: they're 350w FSP units, one of them is bronze
TheFifthAce#4128: it says 7000
TheFifthAce#4128: idk if thats in budget
TheFifthAce#4128: how much is 7000
miklos_akos#1999: An LC-Power LC420H-12 @DarknessFalls229
TheFifthAce#4128: LOL
TheFifthAce#4128: LC power literal garbage
DarknessFalls229#2286: that might be why it failed then
miklos_akos#1999: Never had any problems with it for around 10 years
JustinXenyx#8854: LC Power are as much bullshit as possible
TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/629024068787765288/unknown.png
TheFifthAce#4128: HUNTKEY
TheFifthAce#4128: HUNTKEyHUNTKEyHUNTKEyHUNTKEyHUNTKEyHUNTKEyHUNTKEyHUNTKEyHUNTKEyHUNTKEy |
TheFifthAce#4128: LMAO
DarknessFalls229#2286: @miklos_akos what did you power it with in those 10 years?
TheFifthAce#4128: MAX 180W ON THE 12v
TheFifthAce#4128: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
DarknessFalls229#2286: :Hahahahaha:
TheFifthAce#4128: no wonder it died under the q9400
TheFifthAce#4128: thats max 180w under ideal 80+ efficiency
TheFifthAce#4128: and I bet it has like 50% efficiency
TheFifthAce#4128: :kok:
miklos_akos#1999: @DarknessFalls229 Celeron E3400, ATi Radeon HD5450, 1HDD and an ODD
TheFifthAce#4128: lol
miklos_akos#1999: But it took 2 HDDs like a champ
TheFifthAce#4128: celeron draws like 30w
TheFifthAce#4128: hdds aren't on the 12v
TheFifthAce#4128: lmao |
JustinXenyx#8854: I bet i could design a better PSU with my limited engineering skills
TheFifthAce#4128: but yeah
TheFifthAce#4128: https://hardverapro.hu/apro/elado_minosegi_tapegysegek_tisztan_atnezve_hibatla_14/hsz_1-50.html
DarknessFalls229#2286: WHOA TWO HDDS?
TheFifthAce#4128: these be quiet units
TheFifthAce#4128: are good
TheFifthAce#4128: 350w 80+ bronze FSP
miklos_akos#1999: I may actually have an FSP unit lol
TheFifthAce#4128: fsp time!
miklos_akos#1999: I have to check my old PC at my grandparents
TheFifthAce#4128: sparkle power is also fsp
DarknessFalls229#2286: aint gonna be a problem fot that PSU if the whole system draws like 80 watt
Tinybox#9112: Soo,
I got an SSD here I want to get data from it.
Can I slap it in an external case>usb |
And grab data from there?
TheFifthAce#4128: yes
miklos_akos#1999: @Tinybox yes
JustinXenyx#8854: Not speed efficient but it works @Tinybox
DarknessFalls229#2286: i dunnooo... ive had problems with that before
miklos_akos#1999: I also plan on overclocking the Q9400 because why not
DarknessFalls229#2286: but might just have been me
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmmm, overclocking
Tinybox#9112: k thanks
DarknessFalls229#2286: might want a lil bit more than 350 then
TheFifthAce#4128: yorkfield succs power
miklos_akos#1999: If my memory is correct then the 1050 Ti's recommended power supply wasn't 350W, it was more
TheFifthAce#4128: 1050 ti draws 75w
DarknessFalls229#2286: ^
TheFifthAce#4128: ignore the stupid fucking reccomended power |
TheFifthAce#4128: and do math
DarknessFalls229#2286: maybe max 85
JustinXenyx#8854: recommended wattages are pretty much bullshit
DarknessFalls229#2286: with 6pin
miklos_akos#1999: I checked the recommended PSU, it's 300W
TheFifthAce#4128: NGEQUIOPPNeqkiuobngqhkleb ke
TheFifthAce#4128: IGNORE
TheFifthAce#4128: RECCOMENDED
Tinybox#9112: can't a pcie slot supply a max of 75w (EARLY RX all over again), while a 6 pin can supply 75w as well.
And the 8 pin 150w?
miklos_akos#1999: Calm down
DarknessFalls229#2286: recommended PSU is pretty much there so they dont get sued, if your lower wattage garbage blows up
TheFifthAce#4128: @Tinybox doesn't mean it'll draw more power lol
JustinXenyx#8854: @Tinybox That's if we go according to official spec
TheFifthAce#4128: it's still not a very high power gpu |
TheFifthAce#4128: 85-100w is about as much as I'd expect from a 6 pin 1050 ti
JustinXenyx#8854: 6 pin is basically the same as a 8 pin except 2 more ground connections, so a 6 pin can draw 150W aswell (and even more)
Tinybox#9112: ah okay
DarknessFalls229#2286: well
miklos_akos#1999: Iirc my dad's old 1050Ti gets the juice from the PCI-e bus
TheFifthAce#4128: yes
miklos_akos#1999: But don't count me on that
DarknessFalls229#2286: one pin on the 6pin is sense, and one 12v pin is unoccupied
TheFifthAce#4128: majority of 1050 tis are pcie only
DarknessFalls229#2286: so 6pin is kinda like a 4 pin with a sense plug
miklos_akos#1999: If I have a 300-350W PSU in my old PC, I could reuse that
DarknessFalls229#2286: IF its a good brand
miklos_akos#1999: It's a barely used FSP PSU
DarknessFalls229#2286: oh nice
DarknessFalls229#2286: FSP good boy |
TheFifthAce#4128: send a pic of the side for me whenever you do
TheFifthAce#4128: need to look at the currents
miklos_akos#1999: @TheFifthAce that won't happen until tomorrow or so (it's 8:45PM here)
TheFifthAce#4128: ok so send me a pic tomorrow then lol
TheFifthAce#4128: post in here and tag
TheFifthAce#4128: do not dm
TheFifthAce#4128: :kogaSmug:
miklos_akos#1999: Okay
miklos_akos#1999: Also I have an old FSP PSU which is 300W
DarknessFalls229#2286: just tag us
DarknessFalls229#2286: although im not the most knowledgable on PSUs
DarknessFalls229#2286: 300 is a bit on the low side on wattage
DarknessFalls229#2286: 350 is acceptable
miklos_akos#1999: The one I have next to me is an FSP300-60BT
miklos_akos#1999: It has 6 molex connectors, 2 floppy connectors, 20pin motherboard and 4pin CPU |
DarknessFalls229#2286: looks like another 180 watt on the 12v rail
DarknessFalls229#2286: might not fully power your system
DarknessFalls229#2286: though it should if you dont overclock
TheFifthAce#4128: I am good at psus
TheFifthAce#4128: :UwU:
miklos_akos#1999: I have a better one at my grandparents, I use this to troubleshoot pcs
miklos_akos#1999: It has 6 molex connectors
miklos_akos#1999: So no sata baby
TheFifthAce#4128: 11a on the 12v
TheFifthAce#4128: thats a yikes from me captain
DarknessFalls229#2286: said 15A for me
DarknessFalls229#2286: but still yikes
TheFifthAce#4128: 15a is more usable
miklos_akos#1999: This is an old PSU smh
TheFifthAce#4128: I'd advise a minimum of 18a tho |
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, 2nd that
miklos_akos#1999: And I just could test my pc out if shit is fried or not
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah
miklos_akos#1999: Since I can't plug my sata hdd in
DarknessFalls229#2286: if your PSU blows, first thing you wanna do is check if the rest is alive
DarknessFalls229#2286: knowing from actual experience
DarknessFalls229#2286: not a good one though
SussyBalls#4615: Also make sure your board is not dead to the point it's frying anything you put into it
DarknessFalls229#2286: barebones it first
miklos_akos#1999: Fucking shit is only 20pin
TheFifthAce#4128: lol
TheFifthAce#4128: dont touch it
TheFifthAce#4128: probably actually 11a lmao
DarknessFalls229#2286: hearing that, yeah
miklos_akos#1999: The only 24 pins I have are codegens |
