JustinXenyx#8854: My first question is: Has this occurred with other BIOSs? Jam#0384: I dunno. I never researched because I want to be lazy and I just shilled out for an X570 Exomilav#5434: no idea Jam#0384: My guess is BIOS issue Exomilav#5434: i havent updated at all since MSi's first B450 BIOS that supported 3rd gen Ryzen Exomilav#5434: 7C02v18 Exomilav#5434: 6-24-19 Exomilav#5434: 1.0.0.3 JustinXenyx#8854: Yikes JustinXenyx#8854: Maybe try a BIOS update lmao Exomilav#5434: lol Exomilav#5434: i cant right now because it's raining Exomilav#5434: not gonna risk it Exomilav#5434: i can just download Exomilav#5434: should i get the beta BIOS for 1.0.0.4?

TheFifthAce#4128: @JustinXenyx a brownout would brick mobo JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah but it's raining @TheFifthAce JustinXenyx#8854: Last time i checked, rain and thunderstorms are usually mentioned if they happen simultaneously/are predicted to happen TheFifthAce#4128: Rain causes my power to go out sometimes JustinXenyx#8854: wAIT WHAT TheFifthAce#4128: its pretty common in the usa lmao IRON MAIDEN#4184: did u know rain is good for ur PC JustinXenyx#8854: never had that happen in the US or germany, you really learn new things everyday
IRON MAIDEN#4184: storms cause power problems in the USA (atleast where i am) all the time Tinybox#9112: I've had blackouts because of rain and thunderstorms before too. Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx its horrible. Tinybox#9112: The power was literally out for hours. Tinybox#9112: because the engineer took ages to come. Tinybox#9112: since it wasn't a week-day either. Jam#0384: Wind Jam#0384: Wind is what makes the power go out Jam#0384: It’s usually not the rain itself Jam#0384: But they come together Jam#0384: Very common in the US BigPierogi#3368: anything can make the power go out IRON MAIDEN#4184: Lightning Exomilav#5434: @JustinXenyx well didnt wanna risk it Exomilav#5434: but im on the new BIOS now

Also I'm from Germany so uhm yeag IRON MAIDEN#4184: @Jam yet ur name is heroin? Lady Mipha#0611: :GWcorbinTopKek:
JustinXenyx#8854: Simple solution: Don't buy a 1080 @MagiWasTaken JustinXenyx#8854: With Black Friday etc coming up or being in place rn you could probably nab a RX5700 or 5700XT for not that much cash MagiWasTaken#4357: So is the Rx5700 and the 5700xt as good/better than the 1080? Can I stream/run MHW with it? MagiWasTaken#4357: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/NDNyXv My PC's gonna be this one and I'm only missing the Storage (both the ADATA thing and the Seagate BarraCuda), as well as the Motherboard and the video card. @JustinXenyx So, if I'll get an RX5700 does it still fit in there or are there compatibility issues? JustinXenyx#8854: Will work just as well, yeah @MagiWasTaken MagiWasTaken#4357: Do I need a different motherboard then? MagiWasTaken#4357: Black Friday starts in nine hours, according to Amazon, so may I tag you then again for the actual offers? JustinXenyx#8854: You don't need a new motherboard JustinXenyx#8854: and to answer the previous question, the 5700 basically matches the 1080, while the 5700XT is a bit better then that MagiWasTaken#4357: oh okay MythologicalZ#3752: You can even cheap out and get a reference 5700 MythologicalZ#3752: Temps are fine on that MythologicalZ#3752: But for the XT you want a aib card from Sapphire or whatever
MythologicalZ#3752: Pulse and the windforce are the best value MagiWasTaken#4357: Uhm, what's an aib card? MythologicalZ#3752: Add in board MythologicalZ#3752: Partners like Asus, Gigabyte etc JustinXenyx#8854: In simple terms, this means that it's a different card design than the original like a better cooler or else MythologicalZ#3752: ^ MythologicalZ#3752: Often they give better thermals and clocks MagiWasTaken#4357: so an RX5700xt by Saphire, Pulse or windforce then? MythologicalZ#3752: Sapphire make the Pulse series MythologicalZ#3752: Windforce are Gigabyte MagiWasTaken#4357: oh i see MagiWasTaken#4357: Does any case work btw? MythologicalZ#3752: Looks fine to me MythologicalZ#3752: Can't comment on airflow or whatever but it'll fit everything afaik MagiWasTaken#4357: Airflow, huh?
Are there special ones that are better for that? More airflow=less heat, right? MythologicalZ#3752: Essentially MythologicalZ#3752: But your parts aren't incredibly hot so I wouldn't really worry MagiWasTaken#4357: that's good then MagiWasTaken#4357: I don't know much about tech stuff so this PC is gonna be a first for me TheGeekster#8508: just making sure you've watched plenty of build & pc building tutorial videos on youtube? @MagiWasTaken MagiWasTaken#4357: Nope but my flatmate built his PC together so he's gonna help me! MagiWasTaken#4357: I thought it'd still be a helpful experience to see and understand some of the parts, actually know what parts are in there, build it together and save some bucks by building it in contrast to buying a pre-built pc JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, many people today are what i like to call "IT dyslexic" JustinXenyx#8854: Basically have no clue what's going on inside a PC, smartphone etc and if it breaks they'll just toss it out and buy a new one MagiWasTaken#4357: heh MagiWasTaken#4357: Yeah, I kinda know how PCs work as I've had IT classes in highschool but I didn't know what's in my laptop and I couldn't say if it was good or not until I had FPS-drops in League of Legends. So I thought why not kill two birds with one stone by not only getting a new (or rather actual) PC but also building it myself (or rather have a discord community of Tech-Pros help me with the selection and then build it with the help of my flatmate). And yeah, the second monitor and all the storage is going to be really helpful with Uni-stuff and my blog and possibly (as it became a new hobby of mine) streaming! So, I'm looking forward to all of that πŸ™‚ Deleted User#0000: Got this issue here https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/649575883664785409/JPEG_20191128_114235.jpg Deleted User#0000: ik it's not the monitor or the tower, it's when they are paired
Deleted User#0000: I fixed this issue before but that was ages ago? Any ideas? JustinXenyx#8854: corrupted blue screening that only shows up on half the screen JustinXenyx#8854: screams to me that somethings not right with the graphics card @Deleted User Deleted User#0000: its integrated Deleted User#0000: it works with other monitors just not this one Deleted User#0000: @JustinXenyx JustinXenyx#8854: what plug is that monitor? Deleted User#0000: like what display cable? JustinXenyx#8854: no, what power plug goes in JustinXenyx#8854: of course what display cable it's using Deleted User#0000: well its VGA and so is the motherboard Deleted User#0000: and it's a standard power plug JustinXenyx#8854: Power plug doesn't matter, was just sarcastically mocking you Deleted User#0000: oh, fair enough Deleted User#0000: was thinking that it was a bit of an odd question
JustinXenyx#8854: So, this issue does not appear with other VGA monitors? It also doesn't appear on other monitors that use a different video out? Deleted User#0000: correct Deleted User#0000: and both of these should work together as I bought the monitor and the tower from an office where they were paired together JustinXenyx#8854: Now, for testing. I wanna see if the issue persists if we swap the VGA out for something like HDMI (done with an adapter of course) Deleted User#0000: I'll try that now JustinXenyx#8854: And maybe a DVI to VGA port to check if the mobos VGA out is doing some funny business Deleted User#0000: it's like it's the version of windows it doesnt like, because in the actual boot screen it is displayed fine Lady Mipha#0611: have you tried safe mode @Deleted User Deleted User#0000: @Lady Mipha not yet Lady Mipha#0611: safe mode wont load the graphics drivers so it may work Deleted User#0000: I'm not able to get it into safe mode which is annoying Deleted User#0000: Fixed it @JustinXenyx Deleted User#0000: I had to swap the sata port I had my hard drive connected to Deleted User#0000: how soon should i be replacing this hard drive Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/649603001190973480/unknown.png

JustinXenyx#8854: Both being dead could be very likely, depending on what caused them to die JustinXenyx#8854: Otherwise my bets go to motherboard dead and CPU still working DarknessFalls229#2286: cause is unknown, his son just simply noticed that the PC wasnt outputting an image anymore DarknessFalls229#2286: he suspected GPU was dead, but mobo/cpu is Abe.#3344: I'm bout to lose it Abe.#3344: This stupid laptop palm rest won't come off Abe.#3344: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/649693296351903747/IMG_20191128_192901.jpg Abe.#3344: I unscrewed the 3 screw it says to unscrew for the Probook 4710s

JustinXenyx#8854: BL3 is a really nice game, if you don't want it you could probably give it away or sell it to recoup a slight bit of the GPU cost MagiWasTaken#4357: I mean, I'd love to play it on steam - it's more about that sorta thing but I'll take that deal then MythologicalZ#3752: You can flip the code for like 30e easily Deleted User#0000: borderlands 3 I think is on sale aswell atm MagiWasTaken#4357: also I'm getting a MSI B450M Pro-VDH Max Mainboard for 78.9€, the Seagate ST1000DM010 1 TB for 37.99€, the V200 Thermaltake Case for 42.92€, and the Adata Ultimate SSD for 62.60€.

JustinXenyx#8854: 480-512gb i'd assume from the price JustinXenyx#8854: Mobo is regular price, i'd buy a 2TB drive for just 20€ more, can't comment on case Deleted User#0000: Ah right, ssd prices just keep getting lower MagiWasTaken#4357: Uhm hard drive is 1TB for 37.99€ and SSD is 512GB for 62.60€ MagiWasTaken#4357: @JustinXenyx I'll get this one then: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01ICLGJF8/ref=twister_B07BRNF5ZQ?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 MagiWasTaken#4357: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/NDNyXv

MagiWasTaken#4357: Do you know what the normal prize for that video card is on average? Cause I might not be able to purchase it this weekend :C MagiWasTaken#4357: I just thought I had found a 5700 for about 150€ less but it was a 570 😦 amazon and saturn are messing with me MagiWasTaken#4357: btw, I used the avira-deals plugin that I can't uninstall for this and it was actually useful, lol. Deleted User#0000: what do I pair with a gtx 760? A fx 6300 or a i7 860? JustinXenyx#8854: Probably an i7 860 JustinXenyx#8854: 6300 would work out aswell, but FX is a money hog Deleted User#0000: Well I've got both Deleted User#0000: I was also thinking i7 but I wanted a second opinion Deleted User#0000: Someone has asked me to have a look at his broken tower Deleted User#0000: the only info he knows is that it's a 'gaming computer' and that it trips the entire houses power when turned on 😬 MythologicalZ#3752: Could be the house itself

It can be carried I just cant lift it up off the ground lol DarknessFalls229#2286: @Deleted User that be my case mate, Antec nine hundred DarknessFalls229#2286: Still use it to this day DarknessFalls229#2286: Originally held a P5N-T Deluxe, Q6600, 4gb DDR2 1066, 8800gtx Tinybox#9112: Still kinda can't decide? ASUS TUF B350 PLUS or GIGABYTE DS3H
the difference; Better SOC VRM on the asus. (Looks like the gigabyte has more surface area for the heatsink?) Gigabyte got a 4 pin RGB, not sure but this might be a useful thing later on.. (But there are remote controlled rgb stuff and usb>4pin rgb) -- Better I/O on the TUF Tinybox#9112: They cost the same TheFifthAce#4128: how much is tuf TheFifthAce#4128: the tuf is a board TheFifthAce#4128: it does board stuff TheFifthAce#4128: it's b350 lmao they're basically all 4 phase Tinybox#9112: @TheFifthAce 50 for both TheFifthAce#4128: it doesnt matter, get which one looks cooler TheFifthAce#4128: LOL TheFifthAce#4128: fuck that
TheFifthAce#4128: if it was like 40ish sure Tinybox#9112: Each is 50 TheFifthAce#4128: yeah I know TheFifthAce#4128: its b350 Tinybox#9112: To much huh? TheFifthAce#4128: yes TheFifthAce#4128: thats the price of b450 TheFifthAce#4128: :uwuPip: Tinybox#9112: There's currently only the DS3H and the tuf on the market :Oof: Tinybox#9112: Should I keep waiting around? TheFifthAce#4128: the tuf is the better board TheFifthAce#4128: if thats all thats there, get the tuf TheFifthAce#4128: if you can wait, wait for something like a b450m pro4 (not b350m they had bios issues) TheFifthAce#4128: or a gaming plus TheFifthAce#4128: or a pro vdh plus
Tinybox#9112: alright then Tinybox#9112: I might try my luck on cyber Monday or whatever it's called Clode#2428: Do you think i would get better performance using a ryzen 3 paired with a gtx 550ti or with the vega graphing this with only 8gb MythologicalZ#3752: Vega 8 with decent ram is probably better or on par with a 550ti JustinXenyx#8854: Vega 8 clashes a 550Ti given it's paired with properly clocked memory @Clode Clode#2428: Do you think 8gb is enough? JustinXenyx#8854: 8GB is enough, but at what clock speed? Clode#2428: With like 2400mhz JustinXenyx#8854: ouch MythologicalZ#3752: Just a single 8GB stick? Clode#2428: I didnt buy it yet JustinXenyx#8854: I'd rather you go 3000Mhz + Dual Channel, will increase processor and graphics performance with the APU Clode#2428: Ok Clode#2428: Thanks for the help Jam#0384: 2x 4 would be a sin on a board with two slots though
Jam#0384: Most reasonable people would aim for 16 in the future Jam#0384: If it’s not too far out of reach I would do the single 8GB stick at 3200MHz or so and then get the other asap if you have two slots Jam#0384: If you have 4 2x4 is fine tony#0083: i have a question Deinsti#5907: ya tony#0083: if my system uses ddr3 ram tony#0083: can i use a ddr4 video card tony#0083: ? Deinsti#5907: The computer's RAM and the GPU'S VRAM are not linked Deinsti#5907: So your PC can have DDR3 ram and the GPU GDDR5 etc tony#0083: ok thanks JustinXenyx#8854: Although, a graphics card with DDR4 memory sounds weird, which one is it? @tony DarknessFalls229#2286: Which RAM speed is best for Ryzen 3k? JustinXenyx#8854: 3000Mhz is what i'd use for a regular Ryzen 3000 build JustinXenyx#8854: 2666Mhz is the ABSOLUTE minimum i'd ever use with Ryzen in general
DarknessFalls229#2286: https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/kwX6YT I has this, based on GN, Buildzoids recommendations on motherboard JustinXenyx#8854: That's some expensive memory JustinXenyx#8854: Also i personally wouldn't go with that gigabyte board, their stuff was pretty shit until X570 JustinXenyx#8854: https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/GFjHNq JustinXenyx#8854: This is what i'd go for personally JustinXenyx#8854: double the RAM for the same price and a different mobo DarknessFalls229#2286: wait wot DarknessFalls229#2286: 107 for 32 gigs?? Jam#0384: GT 1030 has a DDR4 variant, the super shitty one @JustinXenyx Jam#0384: It’s the only one JustinXenyx#8854: Which is EXACTLY why i was asking JustinXenyx#8854: Because that card is a terrible choice Jam#0384: ought to just buy a used RX 570 for hardly more Jam#0384: or a low profile 560/1050 if it is a requirement
Jam#0384: Also people pass up the GTX 950 as they can be found cheap sometimes too Clode#2428: For new components what should i buy for a processor and graphic card for 200 dollars or less? JustinXenyx#8854: What platform for the processor? @Clode Clode#2428: Idk whatever be the best for price/performance Jam#0384: $200 for both or $200 each Jam#0384: @Clode Clode#2428: Both Clode#2428: Ive seen some good parts but im not sure BigPierogi#3368: n tony#0083: Guys tony#0083: Sory to inerrupt tony#0083: I just changed the prossesor in my pavilion dv2000 tony#0083: And its not showing image tony#0083: Any ideas? TheGeekster#8508: as in you changed a laptop processor? what did you change it from and to?
tony#0083: From a pentium tony#0083: To a core 2 TheGeekster#8508: which core 2 duo? from the look of it, only certain ones are likely to work tony#0083: The core i took it from a working laptop TheGeekster#8508: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/650469781278949382/unknown.png tony#0083: If im not mistaken it was suported TheGeekster#8508: i'd suggest putting the old cpu back in, make sure it still works, then it's either incompatible cpu or dead cpu tony#0083: I used the t5800 tony#0083: It was working when i took it from the other notebook TheGeekster#8508: well... that might be why πŸ€” i can't promise but it looks likely not to work with a t5800, only a t5850 JustinXenyx#8854: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP_Pavilion_dv2000 According to this surprisingly detailed wikipedia article, the T5800 is not supported TheGeekster#8508: @JustinXenyx I was thinking that, it's really detailed for some reason tony#0083: http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-Intel_(chipsets)/945GM_Express.html tony#0083: Yup MagiWasTaken#4357: So, my brother wants to build a budget pc and had this in mind:
https://de.pcpartpicker.com/user/Magimos/saved/#view=fMfNqs Any thoughts on potential upgrades or even ways to save more money if possible? tony#0083: It was my fault i thought i had read the t8500 was supported tony#0083: Thanks guys TheGeekster#8508: it happens, don't worry, i wouldn't put any more money towards the laptop if avoidable tho TheGeekster#8508: @MagiWasTaken That's not a public list MagiWasTaken#4357: lol MagiWasTaken#4357: whoops MagiWasTaken#4357: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/user/Magimos/saved/fMfNqs MagiWasTaken#4357: there we go, should work now, I think TheGeekster#8508: nope, still private MagiWasTaken#4357: how do I turn it to non-private then? I ticked off the "private"-box MagiWasTaken#4357: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/user/Magimos/saved/#view=fMfNqs MagiWasTaken#4357: now maybe? JustinXenyx#8854: works now
MagiWasTaken#4357: +1 JustinXenyx#8854: First issue: Patriot Burst TheGeekster#8508: don't do the fanless cpu cooler TheGeekster#8508: *PLEASE* do not fanless cpu cooler JustinXenyx#8854: That SSD has a controller that fails within a couple months or so MagiWasTaken#4357: his idea MagiWasTaken#4357: so alternatives? JustinXenyx#8854: Also, that 580 Armor has quite a mediocre cooler MagiWasTaken#4357: thx for the help guys TheGeekster#8508: *spoiler* but budget has a video potentially on that exact cooler in the pipeline, and it's designed strictly for very very low power cpu's, i'd suggest going with a standard looking tower cooler, bequiet! shadow or similar are pretty damn good and quiet, not the cheapest but you get what you put in MagiWasTaken#4357: Oh i see haven't watched him in a while (oof). Guess we'll go with that then TheGeekster#8508: and as Justin said, not that SSD, i'd suggest a Samsung non QVO, or a patriot VPN100 nvme, something along those lines, look up reviews of the ssd and make sure it has a DRAM cache TheGeekster#8508: checked pinned messages in this channel for rough SSD avoid lists MagiWasTaken#4357: How's the be quiet pure rock slim cooler? TheGeekster#8508: more than adequate for the cpu, and quiet
TheGeekster#8508: chunky tho JustinXenyx#8854: The stock cooler is still enough TheGeekster#8508: *true* MagiWasTaken#4357: the built-in? JustinXenyx#8854: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/x7m9rV Replaced 580 with 570 because 50€ less but only 5-10% performance loss, higher clocked RAM and a better SSD TheGeekster#8508: the cpu comes with a heatsink in the box MagiWasTaken#4357: I see! MagiWasTaken#4357: So he doesn't necessarily need a cpu-cooler then JustinXenyx#8854: Nope, not at all MagiWasTaken#4357: And question regarding HDDs and SSDs: Is there a reason for one to have both an SDD and an HDD TheGeekster#8508: i've gotten so used to intel bundling the absolute turd coolers i just default to after market, need to give a ryzen cooler a go TheGeekster#8508: SSD's are fast, but expensive for capacity, so if you have your operating system and vital programs on it, they'll feel a thousand times faster TheGeekster#8508: HDD's are cheap, and have huge storage for the price, so non critical things like games and rare to use programs are best to go on these, saving valuable disk space on the SSD MagiWasTaken#4357: So if my brother needs to play games like Apex, CSGO, League of Legends or Fortnite on that PC, he'd better have an HDD as well (like the Seagate Baracuda 2TB ones?) MagiWasTaken#4357: also does that video card run apex for instance?
TheGeekster#8508: you *should* be able to fit all of that onto the SSD, a hard drive is easy to add later down the line if you need to SuSSudio#2688: i'd recommend firecuda SuSSudio#2688: since it literally a hybrid between hdd & ssd MagiWasTaken#4357: I see, so he'll add that later *if* needed MagiWasTaken#4357: thanks for the advice JustinXenyx#8854: I'd recommend not to bother with SSHDs TheGeekster#8508: SSHD's have been proven to be shite SuSSudio#2688: duh JustinXenyx#8854: Because at higher volumes they're useless compared to a regular HDD JustinXenyx#8854: AKA with games TheGeekster#8508: The gpu is okay for apex legends, don't expect full everything, but it should be okay SuSSudio#2688: how useless are they though, does it become slower while loading games TheGeekster#8508: if you're happy to go second hand hunting, a gtx 970 is recommended SuSSudio#2688: Should've not recommended someone one then, frick me MagiWasTaken#4357: dont worry dio was nice to see an unpopular opinion there πŸ˜›
TheGeekster#8508: no it's just pointless expense over a standard hard drive, like they genuinely don't make any major improvement, and cost more than a normal hdd unfortunately TheGeekster#8508: *in theory* they work, but the cache on them is so small, if you write more than 4/8gb within half an hour, it's pointless πŸ€” games be big MagiWasTaken#4357: @TheGeekster he's fine with it as long he's able to play League (for instance) or Apex on normal settings while having spotify and teamspeak open at the same time (lol) SuSSudio#2688: well ok but i always find myself bad after acknowledging my opinion MagiWasTaken#4357: dont worry too much about it, champ TheGeekster#8508: @SuSSudio Eh don't feel bad, it's marketting hype, i tried some laptop SSHD's back in the day in laptops, and, yep, they bad MagiWasTaken#4357: I know shite about tech-stuff (but I'm learning!) and hearing about the firecuda's existence was interesting! TheGeekster#8508: but the theory is sound TheGeekster#8508: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/x7m9rV < what justin linked will do what he wants happily to be honest TheGeekster#8508: depending *quite how tight* the budget is, i'd try for an NVME SSD, faster than a normal SSD by a fair chunk, but sata ssd's are still very good MagiWasTaken#4357: NVM looked through the pinned messages and it's at tier 3 but we'll take the patriot burst I guess because of... budget. MagiWasTaken#4357: Thanks for the help @TheGeekster and @JustinXenyx πŸ™‚ TheGeekster#8508: No probs, if you need anything ping the tech helper role MagiWasTaken#4357: Oh, I see! Will do πŸ™‚ MagiWasTaken#4357: But then again, you geniuses over here are always here to help, so it shouldn't be too bad help-shortage-wise hehe

Deleted User#0000: 2x8 TheGeekster#8508: Then we can't tell you really, you'll have to look at your local market for used parts MythologicalZ#3752: Speed makes it pretty worthless, so let's say ~45 there MythologicalZ#3752: Board about 80e Deleted User#0000: Ryzen cannot be found under 100 here MythologicalZ#3752: 290x from Cex is 70 quid atm, not sure how much you can get them in the Eu for Deleted User#0000: Same with the board MythologicalZ#3752: Then you have an advantage, list them at slightly less than market and profit Deleted User#0000: People for some reason buy overpriced computers here MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah then list off your market but from what I've seen on Ali and some other EU places those prices are an average

Deleted User#0000: Still not sure
TheGeekster#8508: You should based on that one example be able to get at least (eurosign)1600, if he's selling a crappy i3 for that price Deleted User#0000: And if its not based on that example? TheGeekster#8508: Because you aren't willing to ship, it's kinda... your local area prices, it can vary wildly depending on availability of second hand parts Deleted User#0000: My pc is boot cycling, I just swapped out the power supply but the power supply was working fine, any ideas? TheGeekster#8508: made sure the cpu power & motherboard power are both firmly plugged in? Deleted User#0000: yeah I just checked that, apparently my overclock had failed :/ Deleted User#0000: even though I've never oc'ed on it lol Deleted User#0000: Its sorted now, that was odd HotShot#8006: Guys, I know this sounds dumb but, does dual channel memory get disabled if I insert 4 sticks of RAM into my slots, even if they are all the same / pairs are running in "dual channel configuration" when inserted. tdp2612#3835: no, its still 'dual channel' tdp2612#3835: it acts as dual 2 sticks, rather than single 4 sticks, if that makes sense tdp2612#3835: it probably doesnt, but thats because i know nothing DarknessFalls229#2286: Dual channel gets activated when 2 similar sticks of ram, which are the same size, are inserted into their corresponding slots. meaning you can have 2x 4GB in slot 1 and 3, and 2x 8GB in slots 2 and 4 and all sticks will still run dual channel, but overclocking might be more difficult with mismatched capacities of ram. DarknessFalls229#2286: So pairs of ram-sticks will run in dual channel, when inserted into the right ram-slots. JustinXenyx#8854: Think of it like shoe pairs
JustinXenyx#8854: When you have 2 shoes that match, you have a pair JustinXenyx#8854: When you have 4 shoes that match, you have two pairs DarknessFalls229#2286: you can mismatch shoes all you like but if they still fit they will work together, but when you use different sizes walking will be bad experience DarknessFalls229#2286: but not all same size shoes will work together just like that Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/650750905238421507/20191201_173048.jpg Deleted User#0000: does anyone know how to rig up RGB fans? Not all of the LEDs are showing up and idk why. TheGeekster#8508: looks like rgb controller needs setting up Deleted User#0000: @TheGeekster rip, I dont have a controller for it TheGeekster#8508: *that might be why the rgb isn't rgbing* Deleted User#0000: rip Deleted User#0000: but its molex connectors TheGeekster#8508: what fans are they? Deleted User#0000: Idk, unbranded from what I can see TheGeekster#8508: where did you buy them from? what did you expect them to do? Deleted User#0000: I bought a pc and this was the case with the fand, and I am just reusing the case for another build
TheGeekster#8508: there has to be some sort of label, unless he's removed them all TheGeekster#8508: what connectors do the fans have? normally they'll have molex for power, and something else for RGB Deleted User#0000: I think they are just like cheap chinese case fans as it looks like the branding hasn't been removed, they all have molex and one has a connector for the case front i/o TheGeekster#8508: ah the case io connector is probably the rgb controller TheGeekster#8508: i know in my gf's pc, the RGB controller is built into the case Deleted User#0000: Well the controller isnt dong much TheGeekster#8508: should be a button to press to change settings Deleted User#0000: yeah it does nothing TheGeekster#8508: is the rgb controller powered? Deleted User#0000: It doesnt require power TheGeekster#8508: mmmmm they generally do TheGeekster#8508: is there only one connector on it? Deleted User#0000: There is no other connectors such as molex or anything like that which I can rig up to it Deleted User#0000: And yeah it's only using one connector to connect the fans to the controller which is a little 2 pin connection TheGeekster#8508: there's no other connectors on it at all? did the fans work on the old case?
Deleted User#0000: The fans came with the case when I purchased it second hand and I'm assuming the fans where original sold with the case when bought new TheGeekster#8508: Ah okay, well... That's fucked then πŸ€” TheGeekster#8508: It just looks to me like the controller either isn't working or isn't powered, hence the power to the lights but no light Deleted User#0000: I'm just gonna buy some new ones and put those fans in my rig because idc about RGB, they are pretty decent fans and they push a lot of air Deleted User#0000: it's amazing how cheap SSDs have gotten Deleted User#0000: I got a 240gb one to replace the dying hard drive in that pc for like 25 dollars Deleted User#0000: @Deleted User you can get a 120gb ssd for like 15 quid, its mad TheGeekster#8508: please don't tho, the really really cheap SSD's have major issues that can infact sometimes make them slower than hard drives TheGeekster#8508: manufacturers have started cutting out dram caches, or any kind of cache, and writing to raw nand is shite slow Deleted User#0000: @TheGeekster I think kingston 120gb ssds where on sale for 15 and I wouldnt call them a cheap brand but idk TheGeekster#8508: kingston a400's most likely, they have *many* issues TheGeekster#8508: they pulled a bait & switch after release, they released the A400 with dram and it was pretty good, they then removed it without any updates beyond technical manuals, still under the same part name Deleted User#0000: Rip Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/650798413897531423/20191201_203112.jpg Deleted User#0000: A lovely gt 620 1gb installed, yum

I reckon its actually hitting your 3.6GHz OC(or maybe a little bit below) but considering the 2200G has a boost of 3.7 and base of 3.5 you might be better not overclocking at all unless you push to 3.7 manually or higher.

TheGeekster#8508: 😏 TheGeekster#8508: πŸ€” can you easily start unscrewing it? DarknessFalls229#2286: usually CPU cooler screws bottom out at some point DarknessFalls229#2286: the space between ihs and cooling component needs to be minimal, with only thermal paste filling the gap Abe.#3344: Quick question, does SAS share bandwidth between ports? I remember being told SAS is worse than SATA but I can't remember why now TheGeekster#8508: SAS is faster and more resilient, but it's for servers TheGeekster#8508: afaik, sas can share bandwidth, depending on what is plugged into both ends Abe.#3344: My friend is using SAS drives for a server Abe.#3344: But I feel like I was told it's bad. Abe.#3344: For some reason TheGeekster#8508: Nah SAS isn't bad, it's being replaced as sata SSD's are faster than sas drives now, but it serves a different purpose to sata
Abe.#3344: If I have 6 drives, does SAS share the 12gbs of bandwidth between them (2gb EA)? TheGeekster#8508: nope, but it depends on the backplane you plug that into TheGeekster#8508: so it's 12gbps per sas channel, you generally get 4 sas channels per port LuminousFuture#5919: under full load it gets to 90 instead of 95 now https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/651934369040039977/unknown.png LuminousFuture#5919: so i guess thats better LuminousFuture#5919: it wasn't tightened in all the way, i think i was worried about it being to tight LuminousFuture#5919: @Tech Helper does this seem right for a 2700x clocked at 4.1 full load?

So either the cooler mounting/thermal paste is insufficient or somethings wrong, like perhaps in the bios its applying too much voltage.

However, i wouldn't do it because the HD5450 is a pretty shit card and considering you already have a R9 390 that would work out fine i'd rather you just invest a bit of cash into a better PSU and some fans for the card because in the long run you'll probably be better off with that Deleted User#0000: it doesn't need to be good, it just needs to drive a monitor for web browsing

Memecube#2037: the acer Memecube#2037: and $120 the dell SuSSudio#2688: If you can deal lower with the seller get the 4430 pc Memecube#2037: althought the dell comes with 8gb of ram instead of 4 SuSSudio#2688: Well then get the dell one SuSSudio#2688: Haswell's got strong single core perf Memecube#2037: So slapping a gpu to the Acer pc won't do much compared to the Dell on its own? SuSSudio#2688: Not as much as dell will SuSSudio#2688: plus you're getting 8GB of RAM right off the bat Memecube#2037: and I could use some for the trashy igpu Memecube#2037: :haha: SuSSudio#2688: yeah & save money later on the run Memecube#2037: yeah and maybe in the future add an actual gpu SuSSudio#2688: mhm, you can also upgrade up to 4790K if you desire Memecube#2037: well thanks for the help

Deleted User#0000: Now just lets see if he responds MythologicalZ#3752: :TheGoods: Lady Mipha#0611: :TheGoods: Deleted User#0000: :TheGoods: JustinXenyx#8854: Manli should be Colorful stuff JustinXenyx#8854: they're pretty low key in the western markets, but pretty big in asia apparently JustinXenyx#8854: Only seen em when they had some massive ass discounts on their stuff in stores or when buying from big markets tdp2612#3835: ah Alcyone#2233: looks to be the same shroud as the pny pascal cards, don't know who is rebranding who here though https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/653668059663433731/2772493-a.png JustinXenyx#8854: Actually, jokes on all of us, Manli, Zotac and Inno3D are all PCPartner owned, meaning they all are related in theory JustinXenyx#8854: How ironic that one company has 3 "sub-companys" that all compete with one another MythologicalZ#3752: Thought it would be under Colorful Alcyone#2233: would make sense if they only sold each brand in certian countries Alcyone#2233: you never see any manli or inno3d cards here in the US, only zotac MythologicalZ#3752: Never seen Manli here but Inno and Zotac are present at different retailers
JustinXenyx#8854: I've seen Manli, Inno3D and Zotac all in germany, so i'm surprised Memecube#2037: ok so change of plans. If I go with a cheaper Intel i3 2120 OEM PC that has a PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot, could I fit a graphics card like a GTX 650TI or a GTS 450? Alcyone#2233: x16 slot is an x16 slot. bios may have issues with pcie 3.0 cards on an oem though, depends if they released updates Alcyone#2233: if its some thin tower, case will only take a lp card with the side panel on, and any low end oem might be lacking a 6 pin power cable for the 650 ti Memecube#2037: I'm pretty dumb with these stuff but the PC is an Acer Veriton X4610G JustinXenyx#8854: This one? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/653708248750227466/Acer-Veriton-X4610G-Computer-a-qe.png JustinXenyx#8854: If so, you're definitely limited to half-height graphics cards and are probably PSU limited aswell Memecube#2037: I checked and its 220W tdp2612#3835: yeah thats a bit limiting tdp2612#3835: also they tend to have weird psu plugs as well, so you have to get an oem replacement bigger one Alcyone#2233: yeah 220w wont have pwr connectors and thats not a lot of watts to go around, looked it up, has 190w on the 12v rail so just about any card that requires a 6 pin will be pushing it Alcyone#2233: might be able to find a lp hd 7750, 750 ti or gt 1030 cheapish Memecube#2037: would an external psu help? Jam#0384: Inno3D does pop up in US, but not often anymore, majority ZOTAC and zero Manli J3FF#4970: so my pc got water dripping from the top for a few minutes and it came inti contact with the gpu, and now everytime i want to play a game, a few hours later the nvidia driver would crash every now and then and recovering later
J3FF#4970: any suggestions? (maybe waiting it out?) J3FF#4970: its an acer pc like the one on top, albeit with slightly different design, but still similar TheGeekster#8508: i'd suggest opening the case, and checking to make sure there's no water damage, rust, residue etc ontop of the gpu tdp2612#3835: ^ Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/654046531942613012/JPEG_20191210_185428.jpg Deleted User#0000: Β£70 for both, not the best deal but I just wanted them HappySlappyFace#0441: i dont think its a bad deal too Deleted User#0000: both come with the original instructions and cross fire bridges and things Deleted User#0000: not going to be using cross fire with either of them Deleted User#0000: gonna put the r9 270 with an Fx 6300 tdp2612#3835: thats a weird box SuSSudio#2688: Boxes looks nuts πŸ’¦ Jam#0384: Normalish 2011-2013 AMD GPU box art Jam#0384: And design Jam#0384: Now theyre just kinda like the Nvidia ones with red instead of green
JustinXenyx#8854: @Deleted User Actually that's not too bad Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/654081581199261696/JPEG_20191210_215904.jpg Deleted User#0000: new budget system built IRON MAIDEN#4184: specs?

Deleted User#0000: beyond me tbh, not much of a software person Memecube#2037: I know its like the millionth time I've asked about some sucky pc but how well (or awful) does the i5 650 and a GT 710 perform?
Deleted User#0000: @Memecube the gt710 will perform very badly Deleted User#0000: but the i5 could be used for a system for browsing and video play back Deleted User#0000: But not gaming IRON MAIDEN#4184: @Memecube in general GT710s are shit IRON MAIDEN#4184: find a better card for almost the same price Memecube#2037: what about a GTS 450? IRON MAIDEN#4184: way better than the 710 imo IRON MAIDEN#4184: whats ur GPU budget? @Memecube Memecube#2037: like less than $30 lmao IRON MAIDEN#4184: thats doable IRON MAIDEN#4184: what country are you in? Memecube#2037: but I think I'll go for a Pentium G3240 since the pc is almost half the price of the other one with the GT 710 Memecube#2037: and from that add the GTS 450 IRON MAIDEN#4184: get a GTX 650 IRON MAIDEN#4184: they are right under 30$
IRON MAIDEN#4184: @Memecube Memecube#2037: would it support the 500W psu tho? IRON MAIDEN#4184: yea 500W should be absolutely fine IRON MAIDEN#4184: uses 1 6pin @Memecube and comes with 2 molex to 1 6pin adapter if u dont have one IRON MAIDEN#4184: and free shipping IRON MAIDEN#4184: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32863733457.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.328466f2JrDNDh&algo_pvid=86aae735-dc0d-4198-8bab-3b738e9219e5&algo_expid=86aae735-dc0d-4198-8bab-3b738e9219e5-2&btsid=9f2b1dfa-8a00-48d5-b9e6-bd206bad40a9&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_4,searchweb201603_53 IRON MAIDEN#4184: defiantly what id get for 30$ if i were you @Memecube HotShot#8006: @Rysing Dragoon try looking at previous versions in your appdata folder if it has any. What are the modules related to? I can't tell. HotShot#8006: What were you doing/ tried to do to get that issue? HotShot#8006: Sorry if I sound aggressive but it dosen't help just posting "I have a problem" without any context to the problem. TheGeekster#8508: (reinstall discord, it's a missing file from reading the message) HotShot#8006: @J3FF advice from @TheGeekster is good and I would do it if you are comfortable / confident with disassembly of your prebuilt. But otherwise I would fall back on the warranty if you have one still in date or their support. It won't be the fastest but you are more likely to get a replacement graphics card as it sounds like water has gotten to the chip or the PCB of the graphics card, making its working ineffective. TheGeekster#8508: This is a budget discord, 99% of the pc's here are built from random stuff found on ebay, pretty sure there's not gonna be a warranty if they're posting here tbh 😩 Lady Mipha#0611: 😩 tdp2612#3835: 😩
BigPierogi#3368: 😳 tdp2612#3835: i mean some of us might have cex warranties tdp2612#3835: thats like halfway to a proper warranty Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/654387032776376329/20191211_082454.jpg Deleted User#0000: noice πŸ‘Œ Alcyone#2233: mesh front, I approve Deleted User#0000: CiT prism case, swapped it for a big antec one tony#0083: Hey guys tony#0083: Theres a guy online selling a asus 1060 strix 6gb (not working) quite cheap tony#0083: Is it posible to fix a gpu? tony#0083: I mean is it virtually posible? DarknessFalls229#2286: depends on the issue DarknessFalls229#2286: if its overheating, probably needs a good clean. if its artifacting in game, might need to downclock or reflash of the bios. if it has a burnt VRM, youre probably out of luck.
if its artifacting inside the bios. it may bee a bios reflash or is very dead DarknessFalls229#2286: it could be a number of things, some are fixable others arent SuSSudio#2688: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/06/28/core_2_duo_errata/ Deleted User#0000: So my main internal drives are 2 512 GB ssds.And a 1TB 7200rpm HDD I installed Windows on the ssds and set it to RAID 0.The question here is: If i plugged an external 1tb ssd and leave it there,will it affecting my booting speed and my other drives ? In long terms i mean. I'll connect my drive thru USB by an enclosure shell. Deleted User#0000: @JustinXenyx Deleted User#0000: And i'll be storing games on the drive. Deleted User#0000: Such as Red Dead Redemption 2. JustinXenyx#8854: No, the external ssd won't affect anything because it isn't tied in the raid etc JustinXenyx#8854: It's essentially just more Storage connected via USB for the computer Deleted User#0000: Yeah i was a bit worried because i were tried to connect my 3TB HDD 5400 RPM Deleted User#0000: And it were slowing my booting speed down.
Deleted User#0000: From 6,5 secs to 10 secs. Deleted User#0000: So,i have nothing to worry,right ? JustinXenyx#8854: No, not at all Deleted User#0000: Okay then. Deleted User#0000: So my previous slow ass mechanic drive were the problem of slow booting ? JustinXenyx#8854: Not sure about that, but depending on how it may have been configured it could have slowed booting down JustinXenyx#8854: For example if a program that starts up while booting is on that hard drive it will slow down boot times Deleted User#0000: So that's why i'm planning to buy an SSD Deleted User#0000: Well again,i have absolute no problem right ? Deleted User#0000: Just wanted to make sure of it. JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, it should be absolutely fine Deleted User#0000: My USB port is 3.0 JustinXenyx#8854: I just wanted to ask about that lmao JustinXenyx#8854: Because some of the SATA SSD enclosures on the market are still crippled by USB 2, so you gotta be a bit careful with the options on the lower end Deleted User#0000: Well and so does my enclosure.
