TheFifthAce#4128: 225
KeZz#4943: Moment of truth
KeZz#4943: +225 now. Loading benchmark
TheFifthAce#4128: have you touched mem yet
KeZz#4943: Don't give me disco lights plez!
KeZz#4943: Not yet
KeZz#4943: Seems fine, but I'm only on the start of it
TheFifthAce#4128: which cpu
KeZz#4943: Is there anything else I needed to do aside from getting MSI afterburner?
KeZz#4943: Maybe this is just me changing numbers and it's doing fk all
TheFifthAce#4128: msi afterburner is fine
KeZz#4943: Oh ok
TheFifthAce#4128: you said the benchmark score was going up
KeZz#4943: I5 4950 or something
TheFifthAce#4128: 4590 |
KeZz#4943: Probably that one
KeZz#4943: 😅
TheFifthAce#4128: try mem oc now :uwuPip:
KeZz#4943: Not try get more core?
KeZz#4943: Oh, benchmark crashed
TheFifthAce#4128: nah you're at the limit lmao
TheFifthAce#4128: keep 200 core
TheFifthAce#4128: and start upping mem clock
KeZz#4943: Put had no issues whilst running
KeZz#4943: Ok
TheFifthAce#4128: it crashed
TheFifthAce#4128: thats an issue
TheFifthAce#4128: keep to 200 core
TheFifthAce#4128: you wont see fucky textures that much with unstable core clock
KeZz#4943: What amount each time? |
TheFifthAce#4128: that's more with unstable mem
TheFifthAce#4128: +50
TheFifthAce#4128: until you hit 150
TheFifthAce#4128: then by 25 incremeents
TheFifthAce#4128: or you could yolo and just put 200 in
TheFifthAce#4128: thats what I do
KeZz#4943: Ok, I mean. Isn't mem clock usually OC'd to higher than Core?
TheFifthAce#4128: yes
KeZz#4943: You are 200 core, 750 mem
TheFifthAce#4128: I'd still start at 200ish
TheFifthAce#4128: :uwuPip:
TheFifthAce#4128: it's not a clock restraint
KeZz#4943: So why not do 100s? Any issues with messing up the hardware? Or just that it's easy to tell where it's failing?
TheFifthAce#4128: its a power restraint
TheFifthAce#4128: you're limited to 75w |
TheFifthAce#4128: you can only go so high before you trip some ocp meme
KeZz#4943: Meme or memory?
TheFifthAce#4128: and no, no risk of messing up hardware
TheFifthAce#4128: you aren't touching voltage
KeZz#4943: That's good to hear, don't want to break the card
TheFifthAce#4128: but yeah if you wanna yeet, start at a 200 mem clock
KeZz#4943: Temps are still 59c now, nothing high
KeZz#4943: I think the score was 1300 on first OC (50). I'll see what it is now.
KeZz#4943: 15/17
KeZz#4943: 1360
KeZz#4943: Not sure how much better that is, but there it is
TheFifthAce#4128: 4.62%
KeZz#4943: Increase so far?
TheFifthAce#4128: yes
KeZz#4943: Oh nice, just yeeted to 200 |
KeZz#4943: Um..let's see
KeZz#4943: Is it that bad if I do 100 each time, until it fails. And then work backwards by 25s?
KeZz#4943: Why is 25 each time recommended?
KeZz#4943: 1378 now, no issues at 200
KeZz#4943: @TheFifthAce Hopefully you haven't left, what does it mean is it's now 1342 after doing it at 300 mem?

SuSSudio#2688: too bad i'm not from the US :sad_peter:
SuSSudio#2688: Can't find that locally either except the need to cannibalize from another card of the same make

Xbox 360 1953#2640: np
KeZz#4943: 1401 now - Bench score for anyone wondering :)
TheFifthAce#4128: nice
TheFifthAce#4128: 7.7% improvement
KeZz#4943: Wonder what's the highest anyone got on a 1050 ti |
TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/669966459732099073/unknown.png
TheFifthAce#4128: this
TheFifthAce#4128: 1428
KeZz#4943: Says position 1963?
TheFifthAce#4128: thats position out of all superposition 1080p extreme results
TheFifthAce#4128: that's the highest 1080p extreme 1050 ti
JustinXenyx#8854: 1650 is an upgrade, it's just not a big enough one to justify over a 1050Ti @DarknessFalls229
KeZz#4943: That's the highest score on this Benchmark on extreme using 1080p 1050 ti?
TheFifthAce#4128: yes
KeZz#4943: I'm at 1419 and no artifact or crash
TheFifthAce#4128: keep going, get the best score uwu
KeZz#4943: It's unlikely I'll beat the best score...what would be the chances.
TheFifthAce#4128: idk
KeZz#4943: It's 210 core and 750 Mem now
TheFifthAce#4128: its only 10 higher score to beat it |
KeZz#4943: 750 seems to be running fine so far.
KeZz#4943: Still 60c temp
TheFifthAce#4128: nice
TheFifthAce#4128: mem oc wont influence gpu temps
KeZz#4943: Oh ok
KeZz#4943: Just general info then, so you know I ain't bbq-ing here
TheFifthAce#4128: ye
KeZz#4943: 17/17 now, no issues so far
KeZz#4943: Ok, so I put it to 725 not 750. But now it's 1400 after that test.
KeZz#4943: With 25 increase...
TheFifthAce#4128: wack, could be unstable
KeZz#4943: Really?
TheFifthAce#4128: try increasing the core back to 225
TheFifthAce#4128: :uwuPip:
KeZz#4943: I could try 750? |
KeZz#4943: Back to 225?
KeZz#4943: It was 200 I settled on. Now 210 and seems fine. Crashed at 225 last time.
TheFifthAce#4128: ye
TheFifthAce#4128: oh rip
TheFifthAce#4128: prolly as good as youll get it then
KeZz#4943: I'm trying 750 now
KeZz#4943: See what happens
KeZz#4943: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/669969535071158292/OC_1050.PNG
KeZz#4943: No issues or crash. What do i do?
KeZz#4943: 800 - no issues, but 1421 score. Is that normal?
TheFifthAce#4128: thats normal
TheFifthAce#4128: just test to test variance
TheFifthAce#4128: you wont get the same score each time
TheFifthAce#4128: you're almost to beating the record
KeZz#4943: Ye, and at 850 and no issues |
KeZz#4943: Even core is at 215 and no problem
TheFifthAce#4128: nice
TheFifthAce#4128: keep going until something happens
KeZz#4943: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/669974823790968852/oc_1050_ti_ext.PNG
KeZz#4943: @TheFifthAce
KeZz#4943: No issues yet
TheFifthAce#4128: n i c e
TheFifthAce#4128: save that result
KeZz#4943: I have
TheFifthAce#4128: nice
TheFifthAce#4128: you have the best 1050 ti now
KeZz#4943: XD
TheFifthAce#4128: at least for that specific benchmark
KeZz#4943: Time for 900+ mem?
TheFifthAce#4128: sure |
TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/669975338998300747/unknown.png
TheFifthAce#4128: this is what they had
KeZz#4943: My mem clock is 4400
KeZz#4943: But 1911 for core
TheFifthAce#4128: nice
KeZz#4943: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/669975889999691776/JPEG_20200123_184501.jpg
TheFifthAce#4128: you're at 11.5% better perf now
KeZz#4943: 1457 score now
TheFifthAce#4128: nice
KeZz#4943: I mean, it's 220 now and 925 and running fine. Let's see the result.
KeZz#4943: Should I be getting it as close as possible to a crash or stay a bit away?
KeZz#4943: So let's say 225 is crash, should I be at 215 or 220?
KeZz#4943: Or further.
KeZz#4943: 220 and 925 - Score 1456.
KeZz#4943: I might right the Benchmark at the normal benchmark once I'm done with this and see exactly what it gets score wise. |
KeZz#4943: 1463 now @TheFifthAce
TheFifthAce#4128: nice
KeZz#4943: Ok, so with that set up using that OC. Benchmark on normal crashed 🤔. So it's likely too much, even with the really high score?
Alcyone#2233: you should do one or the other first and not both, especially on a 75w card
Alcyone#2233: if you are hitting the power limit the core will throttle, and even with no artifacts error correction in gddr can lower peak score
KeZz#4943: Ye, it's restarting the Benchmark at 940
Alcyone#2233: get peak scores for each (core/vram) with the other at default then combine the oc and see if it is stable.
KeZz#4943: On low the benchmark is crashing, but wasn't on extreme
KeZz#4943: What does that mean?
Alcyone#2233: instability
KeZz#4943: I'll take it down slowly until it's all stable. Then that should be ok?
KeZz#4943: 210 + 915 is now fine so far, running the low benchmark
Jam#0384: 11.7 FPS?
Jam#0384: In what superpositon
Jam#0384: I get 30 in 1080p extreme and 40 in 4K optimized |
Jam#0384: And like 25-30 in 8K
TheFifthAce#4128: @Jam hes running a 1050 ti
Jam#0384: Still, 11.7 FPS
Jam#0384: That’s god awful
Jam#0384: Unless hes running it at 4K or something for some reason
Jam#0384: But to be fair
Jam#0384: These arent meant to run super duper well
KeZz#4943: Ran in on Extreme for all those pictures
Jam#0384: Ah ok
KeZz#4943: Ye, its a 1050 TI, not expecting 30 fps
Jam#0384: Extreme is either the most or second most demanding
Jam#0384: So, those results are fine
KeZz#4943: Most, although after that its 2x x4 and 4k?
KeZz#4943: Just played a round of Rainbow 6. No issues, and frames went from 75-90 to 90-120. Most likely just the map, but still feels better.
KeZz#4943: 20 min, 152 avg, 266 max - OC |
KeZz#4943: 35 min, 146 avg, 234 max - Non OC
KeZz#4943: Ingame benchmark
TheFifthAce#4128: @Tech Helper trying to get a friend in canada a phone, doesn't need cellular or anything, just needs to run the authy app meme for discord

TheGeekster#8508: literally any android phone should work then?
Deleted User#0000: :HyperThinkBlob: any android 5/6 phone is a good idea
TheGeekster#8508: Like even an old tablet should work
Deleted User#0000: Ye
Deleted User#0000: @TheFifthAce could he not use bluestacks or something?
Deleted User#0000: :hmst:
TheFifthAce#4128: whats the cheapest option on ebay that woujld work
Deleted User#0000: Has he tried bluestacks @TheFifthAce
Jam#0384: It shouldn’t be so difficult to find a cheaper android for sub $100 which performs pretty damn well
Jam#0384: But I would prioritize camera quality over perf because as long as it runs normal apps fine its good
Jam#0384: But thats just me |
Jam#0384: Make sure it has at least 8-16GB storage
Xbox 360 1953#2640: iirc s6 are below 100
Xbox 360 1953#2640: and i was able to root mine and install custom roms
tdp2612#3835: ooooo
tdp2612#3835: thats not a bad call
tdp2612#3835: old touchwiz is shit but if you can stick like android 6 even, not even anything mega new
Budget#8265: @TheFifthAce Cubot usually does stock android cheap smartphones
Budget#8265: @UKVamp has one
Clode#2428: Is a good idea to use a modded version of windows 10 like win10 lite on a low end machine?
TheGeekster#8508: define low end machine, cuz if you use a windows install that's been fiddled by someone else, then you don't know what's in or not in it
Clode#2428: Can you explain me better
Clode#2428: I didnt understand
TheGeekster#8508: What specs are the the machine? It's best not to use a windows installation that someone else has altered if possible
Clode#2428: Oh ok
Clode#2428: Im talking like a old c2d and some nvidia card idk for sure |
Racey#8574: An old Core2 Duo PC can run Windows, main speed depends on the RAM and HDD
Racey#8574: My Inspiron 1525 has a Celeron M 560 and it runs 10 just fine
Lady Mipha#0611: :monkaX:
JustinXenyx#8854: I personally would advise to stay away from every OS that had been modded, you never know if something else was modified other than what they're saying @Clode
JustinXenyx#8854: And a Core 2 Duo machine can easily run Windows 10 by itself, Win10 Lite wouldn't help much
Jam#0384: Windows 8.1 (if you dont mind using it) would provide a better gaming experience on such a cpu, but either way for newer games the experience is crap so
Racey#8574: Windows 8.1 is the odd one out
Racey#8574: Doesn't have DireftX 12
Racey#8574: But it provides a much faster experience in terms of resource usage
JustinXenyx#8854: Windows 7 technically doesn't have DX12 either
JustinXenyx#8854: It has been backported for World of Warcraft, but i don't know if other DX12 games can run on Windows 7
Racey#8574: Bruh imagine adding a new API version to an old OS just for one program
Jam#0384: Theres no issue with that
Jam#0384: You could just leave it
Jam#0384: Won’t cause any issue afaik |
TheFifthAce#4128: @JustinXenyx I can't find an enclosure for this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/670106781178920970/unknown.png
TheFifthAce#4128: it's just a sata drive that had the enclosure removed
Jam#0384: you can always just do a gamer move and cardboard
Galilool#3398: Wood
Galilool#3398: Wood is dope
SuSSudio#2688: HELP, secondary DVI-I port on the HD 6850 STOPPED WORKING after cleaning, it doesn't pick up display, just black screen.
What did i fucked up?
SuSSudio#2688: Primary DVI-I port fortunately works as intended, but the second because i had it working before i cleaned up the card.
JustinXenyx#8854: what did you clean it with?
SuSSudio#2688: To give you more clue i did soaked the rear end of pcb with 70% alcohol
SuSSudio#2688: Then i let it dry
JustinXenyx#8854: Something probably didn't dry off fully
JustinXenyx#8854: Also, the lower the alcohol concentration the longer it takes for the mixture to evaporate
JustinXenyx#8854: That's why i basically only use 99% IPA, stuff dries in seconds |
SuSSudio#2688: well yeah, so what's the conclusion?
SuSSudio#2688: Did the circuitry on the 2nd port died or smth
JustinXenyx#8854: *just let it dry a little longer ffs lol*
SuSSudio#2688: Still no display
SuSSudio#2688: Welp, guess i killed the 2nd dvi port
KeZz#4943: Anyone know why a monitor wouldn't let me change colour settings? It's greyed out and I really want to change some stuff.
JustinXenyx#8854: Does it have the feature to change color settings? Some monitors only have basic color configuration or lack it entirely
KeZz#4943: It wasnt letting me, but i figured it out.
KeZz#4943: It wasnt registering Custom (game) as a customisable option
KeZz#4943: Next think is to figure out how to smooth out the text, feels like it leaking. Dont know how tho.
KeZz#4943: Generally everything has rougher edges
xXSUBEXx#9544: does anybody know hy my Pc Crashhes when i start Gta 5. It blackscreens
xXSUBEXx#9544: Sometimes it works but Sometimes it will not work
SuSSudio#2688: @xXSUBEXx What video card?
xXSUBEXx#9544: Zotac GTX 1070 AMP EXTREME |
SuSSudio#2688: Have you reinstalled drivers?
SuSSudio#2688: And verify game files for the GTA V
xXSUBEXx#9544: im pretty sure
xXSUBEXx#9544: i did both
xXSUBEXx#9544: sometimes it works out of the blue
SuSSudio#2688: Run furmark to see if the screen will go black again
xXSUBEXx#9544: currently its working
xXSUBEXx#9544: but ill check
xXSUBEXx#9544: Nope crashed. Its Blackscreens and the GPU fans go to full speed
xXSUBEXx#9544: i was stress testing the gpu as soon as it loaded it crashed
KeZz#4943: I've got a quick question for anyone that knows monitors well. So today I set up my 144 Hz monitor, and the game I play I run at anything from 80-120 FPS depending on what's going on. Should I stick to 144 Hz as the refresh despite that, lower it, and should I try sort out freesync even though I have an Nvidia card? And what's the impact this has on the game?
KeZz#4943: If anyone can answer that, and teach me. Thank you.
KeZz#4943: And what should I set my in-game Hz on? Same as screen?
TheFifthAce#4128: keep 144hz anyways, depending on the monitor it might support freesync if you're running through displayport
KeZz#4943: I need to find my display port cable, it's somewhere in the house and I can't find it |
KeZz#4943: Nevermind, I got a Display to VGA XD
TheFifthAce#4128: yeah that wont work
KeZz#4943: I know
KeZz#4943: I can always buy one if you think it will help me
Alcyone#2233: @SuSSudio get 99% iso, in some areas you have to get it over the counter at the pharmacy. if you use the 70% let it dry overnight as that is 30% water and takes a lot longer to evaporate
xXSUBEXx#9544: well any1 got a fix for me>?
DarknessFalls229#2286: i recommend using Display Driver Uninstaller and re-doing the driver install
DarknessFalls229#2286: be sure to download the latest driver from NVIDIAs website
tdp2612#3835: yeah its not even worth buying ipa if its under 90%
tdp2612#3835: the whole advantage is that it dries quick
tdp2612#3835: if youre spending decent ipa price on 70%, yo may as well just use window cleaner or soapy water and just be really careful to let it dry
Xbox 360 1953#2640: free fans from xfx for my r9 390 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/670374979350822952/unknown.png
Xbox 360 1953#2640: If I was to replace the fans do i have to repaste the card?
DarknessFalls229#2286: if you have free access to the fans without havnig to remove the cooler, you dont have to repaste the card
DarknessFalls229#2286: but if the paste is old may aswell as youre busy |
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I can use cpu paste, right?
DarknessFalls229#2286: yes
DarknessFalls229#2286: as long as its good enough quality paste
Racey#8574: Most CPU pastes are universal for GPUs and vice versa
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Thanks
JustinXenyx#8854: thermal paste is thermal paste
JustinXenyx#8854: there is no "CPU thermal paste"
JustinXenyx#8854: I could use thermal paste that is intended for use in fridges because it is THERMAL PASTE
thatubuntuguy#5914: Well put
SuSSudio#2688: my monitor occasionally produce electrical rattling noise, a noise you'll normally find in mosquito rackets, happens everytime finishing scrolling page or switching windows, sometimes in games. source of noise comes from bottom left part of the monitor. why is that?
thatubuntuguy#5914: I have a similar sound as well
thatubuntuguy#5914: I thought it was my gpu but it's still there after I replaced it when it died
Racey#8574: Does your monitor have built in speakers @SuSSudio
SuSSudio#2688: not at all @Racey
SuSSudio#2688: it's a Acer P166HQL |
SuSSudio#2688: Same karan, thought so, because when i switched to igp, the noise was reduced significantly, but it remained like that
tdp2612#3835: what recomendations are there for cheap 240/50 - 480/500gb ssds?
SuSSudio#2688: Is it normal when gpu (specifically HD 6850) reaches to mid 90°Cs under furmark test?
Racey#8574: Have you cleaned and or repasted it
SuSSudio#2688: When gpu usage drops the temps skipped 80c mark and went straight to 74° and below
SuSSudio#2688: yes i did
SuSSudio#2688: It's in clean condition
Racey#8574: You might've put too much maybe
SuSSudio#2688: But average on gaming is between 72-74c
SuSSudio#2688: and yeah i used some cheap thermal paste which only has 1,2W/m-K
Racey#8574: I used cheap Chinese $1 paste and my 660 does just fine under 75°C on load
SuSSudio#2688: What's your TDP though?
SuSSudio#2688: Mine is probably around 136-140W since it was oc'ed 860mhz from factory
RiIey#0001: hey guys i need some help: So I was downloading apex, and i recognized that my C: drive was full so i changed to the D: drive. but it didnt download to the D: drive. any fixes without me having to restart the download?
Racey#8574: Mine has a power limit of 110% |
JustinXenyx#8854: It's because of your mediocre cooler @SuSSudio
JustinXenyx#8854: There's a reason that people say that furmark literally grills cards
Jam#0384: Furmark has never been an issue for any of my hardware
Jam#0384: With temps
Jam#0384: Sure, high temps but not 90s
SuSSudio#2688: @JustinXenyx hey i didn't make the heatsink, msi did, guess jam's was right after all
SuSSudio#2688: Last test i break 98c barrier
SuSSudio#2688: air felt really warm
JustinXenyx#8854: The cooler on my sapphire 6850 has like double the mass of that lmao
JustinXenyx#8854: shame it is BIOS cucked rn and missing a inductor lol
SuSSudio#2688: I'll try repasting the die again with less density if that'll make any difference
SuSSudio#2688: Tweaktown reports 59c on their Cyclone HD 6850 after running 3DMark Vantage, which i doubt i will do too due to different regional climate
SuSSudio#2688: This is how it looks after taking out hs. my thermal paste always form some type of lightning branch depiction after being pressed against lol
does that look too much? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/670882665280438292/IMG_20200126_134417.jpg |
JustinXenyx#8854: what does the cooler look like?
JustinXenyx#8854: i'd probably put on a little more tbh
Lady Mipha#0611: That looks like not enough contact
Yamas8604#5285: looks like not enough
SuSSudio#2688: @JustinXenyx Is there a rule to the tightness of the heatsink screw whenever a new thermal paste applied?
Alcyone#2233: with spring screws do a couple turns on each in a X pattern until they stop. Like putting a wheel on a car. doesnt have to be TIGHT. you will feel it when the screw bottoms out and that good enough
JustinXenyx#8854: Also
JustinXenyx#8854: Don't screw them in any tighter than you could with your own hand and a screw driver
JustinXenyx#8854: That's how you crack the die big time
SuSSudio#2688: I did, thx for the tips

Officialy#2961: pls help
Officialy#2961: using vivaldi latest
thatubuntuguy#5914: you might need some widevine plugin
Officialy#2961: looking now |
thatubuntuguy#5914: there seem to be constant regressions
thatubuntuguy#5914: in each update
thatubuntuguy#5914: i'd just use firefox if i were you
Officialy#2961: but vivaldi's ui is sexy
Officialy#2961: :((
Officialy#2961: main reason honestly
thatubuntuguy#5914: i get that
thatubuntuguy#5914: you can just use firefox for prime video
thatubuntuguy#5914: and vivaldi for everything else
Officialy#2961: true
Officialy#2961: weridly netflix works fine with HD
thatubuntuguy#5914: it's an intermittent thing, from what i can find prime video always breaks sometime, gets fixed then breaks again
Jam#0384: Imagine not using Firefox or Chrome
thatubuntuguy#5914: yeah its a prime specific thing
Jam#0384: I don’t know why people even use opera |
Jam#0384: Opera is gross
Jam#0384: Edge is bad
Alcyone#2233: ie gang
JustinXenyx#8854: You are gross! :Hahahahaha: @Jam
Officialy#2961: ie windows xp edition
JustinXenyx#8854: Opera is much more efficient than Chrome tbf
thatubuntuguy#5914: netflix will work
thatubuntuguy#5914: its vivaldi
thatubuntuguy#5914: :cronge:
Jam#0384: @JustinXenyx Justin I will eat your GTX 970
Jam#0384: Silence
Jam#0384: Opera bad
thatubuntuguy#5914: netflix will work
Jam#0384: Opera starts with O like osu!
Jam#0384: bad |
JustinXenyx#8854: Have fun eating a (as far as it seems now) mostly dead card! lol @Jam
Alcyone#2233: Opera best, it was on the wii
Jam#0384: @JustinXenyx yummy yummu
DarknessFalls229#2286: Justin
Jam#0384: DarknessFalls229
DarknessFalls229#2286: ive been wonderin, what has your pc been up to?
DarknessFalls229#2286: with a 660?
Jam#0384: More like properly good pc man now
JustinXenyx#8854: 4k YT playback, some GTA Online
JustinXenyx#8854: basically that's it up until now
DarknessFalls229#2286: i meant, the parts it has
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh
JustinXenyx#8854: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/vpy8HB
JustinXenyx#8854: This minus the 570
DarknessFalls229#2286: 1600 watt? |
JustinXenyx#8854: And currently without the 860 evo because its controller died
DarknessFalls229#2286: why
tdp2612#3835: bruh
JustinXenyx#8854: 180€ @DarknessFalls229
DarknessFalls229#2286: my 1200 watt was 50
tdp2612#3835: i mean its a pretty powerful build anyway
JustinXenyx#8854: Originally meant to be my testing PSU, it just divulged into my main rig for the fucking 80+ Titanium efficiency
DarknessFalls229#2286: ah
JustinXenyx#8854: With my X79 rig that did cut down the power costs a LOT
DarknessFalls229#2286: nice
DarknessFalls229#2286: im still planning to make a sidepc for when im not gaming
DarknessFalls229#2286: i dont need high performance parts when i dont use them
DarknessFalls229#2286: @JustinXenyx but can i assume then that youre buying a 570 in the future?
JustinXenyx#8854: Negative, gonna get 2 broken R9 390s soon for shipping costs from Austria to Germany @DarknessFalls229
JustinXenyx#8854: They don't seem that hard of a fix and something i certainly can fix within my home |
DarknessFalls229#2286: nice
DarknessFalls229#2286: also, i may have found a heatgun in my workshop so if i get flux i may be able to repair my 690s
DarknessFalls229#2286: its weird the amount of stuff i find in my fathers old workshop
DarknessFalls229#2286: like i found the tumbler he used, so i can put my own old coins in
Officialy#2961: @DarknessFalls229 where tf did you find a 1200w psu for 50
DarknessFalls229#2286: Marktplaats
DarknessFalls229#2286: was actually 45 euro without shipping
Officialy#2961: damn
Officialy#2961: i know gamemax do one but that seems dodgy
DarknessFalls229#2286: mines an older cooler master silent pro gold
Officialy#2961: damn
Officialy#2961: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/671096016556130309/unknown.png
Officialy#2961: this is the gamemax one
DarknessFalls229#2286: im gonna use it for skulltrail
Jam#0384: I have no PSU over 650w thats reliable |
DarknessFalls229#2286: damn 1050p
Jam#0384: and one 800w
Jam#0384: but the 800w is poop because it only supports Haswell and newer
DarknessFalls229#2286: why does it only support that kinda platform?
Jam#0384: Something older hardware doesnt work on
Jam#0384: It wont work on Sandy or older
Jam#0384: I dunno why
Jam#0384: it just doesnt
Jam#0384: I'm sure theres a reason for it
thatubuntuguy#5914: that's really weird
DarknessFalls229#2286: maybe it sends a weak signal to the activation pin
Jam#0384: It's a POS High Power anyways
thatubuntuguy#5914: @JustinXenyx what might be wrong with the 390s?
Jam#0384: No 80+
thatubuntuguy#5914: oof |
thatubuntuguy#5914: that's pretty smelly
Jam#0384: I mean it works fine since most things I use doesnt even draw near 800w
Jam#0384: so im not afraid of using it in certain situation
Jam#0384: But It's uh, not good
thatubuntuguy#5914: yeah igu
Jam#0384: At least its pretty heavy
thatubuntuguy#5914: why are good quality psus heavy
thatubuntuguy#5914: /heavier than shit psus
thatubuntuguy#5914: is it to do with the heatsinks
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmm, now im sad to remember that my 700 watt psu blew
Officialy#2961: who heres good at testing power supplys
thatubuntuguy#5914: and transformers
Jam#0384: Components really
Jam#0384: just in general
thatubuntuguy#5914: i mean a capacitor is a capacitor |
thatubuntuguy#5914: a resistor is a resistor
Officialy#2961: cause i feel like this would be a joke of a psu
Officialy#2961: https://www.cclonline.com/product/257760/GM-2000/Power-Supplies/GameMax-GM2000-2000W-ATX-Mining-Power-Supply/PSU1595/
thatubuntuguy#5914: i can understand if its to do with the transformers being beefier
thatubuntuguy#5914: jesus christ
Officialy#2961: its a mining psu
tdp2612#3835: :Fish3:
thatubuntuguy#5914: sketch levels off the charts
Officialy#2961: for £101
thatubuntuguy#5914: 2000W
Officialy#2961: 2000W
Officialy#2961: yup
thatubuntuguy#5914: for £100
thatubuntuguy#5914: eek
Officialy#2961: 2000W for £100 |
Officialy#2961: bwahaha
Officialy#2961: "with over 87% efficiency"
Jam#0384: Probably can do half of that reliably
Jam#0384: at best
Officialy#2961: 4500 RPM fans for it too
Officialy#2961: non stop at max
DarknessFalls229#2286: afteral its a mining psu
Officialy#2961: yeah
Officialy#2961: true
Officialy#2961: but
thatubuntuguy#5914: that just suggests they couldn't afford a cheap pwm circuit to regulate the fan speed
Officialy#2961: literally
Officialy#2961: it would probably end up mining a hole in your floor from exploding
Jam#0384: Nah
Jam#0384: I've used 10000RPM fans before |
Jam#0384: fun stuff
Officialy#2961: i have a 15000 RPM fan
Officialy#2961: server one ofc
thatubuntuguy#5914: can prolly make a ridiculously fast fan
Jam#0384: dont put your finger in the 10K fan though
Jam#0384: because
Officialy#2961: pfft yeaaah
thatubuntuguy#5914: using a hdd motor
Jam#0384: mine is metal
Jam#0384: so
Jam#0384: uh
Officialy#2961: just
thatubuntuguy#5914: oooooofffff
Officialy#2961: dont put your finger in ANY fan
Officialy#2961: unless its a woman fan |
Jam#0384: Its not that bad on most pc case fans
thatubuntuguy#5914: u seen linus' video on some crazy 15000rpm fan or something
Officialy#2961: yes @thatubuntuguy
thatubuntuguy#5914: he stuck a carrot in it
Officialy#2961: sec
thatubuntuguy#5914: incinerated :haha:
Officialy#2961: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAFB9w2Rh0Y
thatubuntuguy#5914: @Officialy oh yeah if its a woman fan go ahead 😉
Officialy#2961: this one?
Jam#0384: my 10K rpm fan is a tiny metal one
thatubuntuguy#5914: yeahhh that one
thatubuntuguy#5914: that's the video right there
JustinXenyx#8854: @thatubuntuguy Both have mosfet issues, the person i'm getting them from already bought replacement mosfets tho and is gonna ship them aswell
thatubuntuguy#5914: @JustinXenyx ah very cool! so nothing a heatgun can fix
Jam#0384: stick your finger in it no balls |
Officialy#2961: also god this one lmfao
Officialy#2961: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM2G5vLGcQQ
Officialy#2961: that'd end up blowing a capacitor OFF
JustinXenyx#8854: nah, quite literally something a heatgun is gonna fix lol @thatubuntuguy Gonna use a heatgun to take off the broken mosfet and put the working one on
tdp2612#3835: >worth over 1000

thatubuntuguy#5914: good luck mate
thatubuntuguy#5914: two working 390s would be heaven :feelsgoodman:
thatubuntuguy#5914: 600W xfire time lmao
thatubuntuguy#5914: how powerful would a xfire 390 setup be |
JustinXenyx#8854: not that much given one of the cards would have to run in cucked X4 mode
Xbox 360 1953#2640: theres not even a graphics card on that pc
Alcyone#2233: @tdp2612 lol thats a low end fm2+ mobo
Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/671105081076350996/1212590-n0.png
thatubuntuguy#5914: @JustinXenyx oof
tdp2612#3835: should I offer him like 50
tdp2612#3835: i could put it in that red case and have an early 2000s performing system :frobotmoment:
Jam#0384: 50 for whay
Jam#0384: what
Jam#0384: Early 2000s is a wide range
Jam#0384: the different between each year is massive
Jam#0384: and 2000 looks nearly a decade behind 2004
tdp2612#3835: i mean buy this rather than going 775 for sort of good for 2003-mediocre for 2008 style
tdp2612#3835: i might be really slagging off fm2 and c2qs here tbf
tdp2612#3835: i dont know shit about old stuff, thats your territory |
Jam#0384: most thats good for 2003 wont even launch 2008 games
Jam#0384: let alone play them
Jam#0384: High end 2005 is where that starts to become doable
Jam#0384: I actually own the most powerful card of 2003. It caps out around 2006 for running games decently-well. You also do lose some ability for features around that point. It is capable of running some games from 2008, playable even. But the lack of ShaderModel 3.0 really ruins it
Jam#0384: But that card is pretty rare
Jam#0384: @tdp2612
tdp2612#3835: fair enough
Jam#0384: So if you really want something with a wide range core 2 and geforce 8 series is the most affordable
tdp2612#3835: fair enough
tdp2612#3835: ill use the q8300 ive had sat for ages, buy a decent ish board
Jam#0384: yeah, thats the smart way to go
tdp2612#3835: then something old but not power hungry i guess
tdp2612#3835: i dont wanna just use like a 210 as thats a bit boring
Jam#0384: And then you can get 2x2gb ddr2, get 2 more later
Jam#0384: 8600GT is pretty cheap |
Jam#0384: 8800GTS is sub $20 sometimes
Jam#0384: will play all your retro games
Jam#0384: And you can even run XP if you want because all games till 2009-2011 or so will work on XP
tdp2612#3835: as in anything pre 2008 ish?
tdp2612#3835: ignoring stuff like crysis
Jam#0384: It will run Crysis
tdp2612#3835: :Hahahahaha:
Jam#0384: at like High
Jam#0384: Can it run crysis is a meme
tdp2612#3835: i struggle to run crysis maxed at 1080 on my 970
Jam#0384: my 2002 Radeon 9700 pro can run crysis
Jam#0384: give it a fucking break lmao
Jam#0384: Granted 25fps on 800x600 lowest isnt a fun time
Jam#0384: but for a card that came out 5 years before
Jam#0384: I'd take it |
tdp2612#3835: i honestly thought it was impossible
tdp2612#3835: partly from the whole joke
Jam#0384: No its not that hard
tdp2612#3835: and partly because of how mine struggled with all the settings turned up
Jam#0384: My X800 and X850 pro from 2004 run crysis at Medium preset 720p 35fps
Jam#0384: And my X1950 pro from 2005 on an AGP slot can run Crysis with High preset
Jam#0384: My QX6700 rig with a GTX 275 runs it nearly maxxed at 720p with 45-65FPS depending on the environment or firefight
tdp2612#3835: ok one problem, why do all these old cards all use dvi
tdp2612#3835: i thought theyd have vga
Jam#0384: Just get a DVI to VGA adapter
Jam#0384: I have a card from 2001 with DVI
Jam#0384: VGA was already being phased out by 2006-7
tdp2612#3835: i shouldve bought a few when i got my one
tdp2612#3835: 3 pound each
Jam#0384: I always use adapter |
Jam#0384: makes life easier
Jam#0384: but yeah uh
Jam#0384: Most cards i have that old dont even use VGA
Jam#0384: The high end ones
tdp2612#3835: and what would you say for an os for this sort of stuff
Jam#0384: even my high end 2002-2003 cards use 1 VGA 1 DVI
tdp2612#3835: will xp be fine for drivers
Jam#0384: Definitely
Jam#0384: GTX 980Ti has full XP driver support
Jam#0384: and everything below
tdp2612#3835: and where do i download xp nowadays
Jam#0384: Uhh
Jam#0384: bit of a complication there
tdp2612#3835: do i find it in le dms :frobotmoment:
Jam#0384: You cant really just download XP typically |
Jam#0384: Yes
Jam#0384: Cobs has a copy
tdp2612#3835: or do i just go on piratebay and hope for the best
Jam#0384: All of my copies are on CD
Jam#0384: Just ask Cobs
Jam#0384: So erm
tdp2612#3835: ill get something built first i guess
Jam#0384: Yeah XP is typically good for 2000-2009 hardware
tdp2612#3835: i hope the guy still has that case, hes been selling it for ages
Jam#0384: but 2007-2011 I like to use Win7 personally
Jam#0384: But a 2007 WinXP rig still makes total sense
Jam#0384: For things 1999 and older I typically use Windows 98SE
Jam#0384: Yeah its a good idea to get it built
Jam#0384: Test it if you can ofc
Jam#0384: BIOS |
Jam#0384: test the card in another system if it ends up being PCIe
Jam#0384: I would personally recommend going PCIe despite the fact that I love AGP
Jam#0384: This is why: You can get a newer platform like LGA775 w/ C2Q and get a high end graphics card from 2004-2005 on there and suffer no gpu bottleneck. And that allows you to swap out for newer cards
Jam#0384: Also for reference
Jam#0384: GeForce 6800GT PCIe is like $20-$35
tdp2612#3835: so like a mid range 2007/8 card is where its at?
Jam#0384: GeForce 6800GT AGP is like $50-$100+
tdp2612#3835: :frobotmoment:
Jam#0384: I would go for a GeForce 8800GTS or something like that
Jam#0384: Lower high end
tdp2612#3835: id probably stick with pci e anyway as I actually know it
Jam#0384: 8800GT is good too
tdp2612#3835: what about a 9000 series card
Jam#0384: AGP works just like PCIe but its just a different slot
Jam#0384: 9000 series is basically the same as 8000 series |
tdp2612#3835: just a bit newer
Jam#0384: AVOID GeForce 7800/7900 series
Jam#0384: The cards worth your time are expensive and they underperform heavily
Jam#0384: Same with the 6800 series
Jam#0384: UNLESS you want to play games up till 2006 only
tdp2612#3835: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Inno-3D-GeForce-9800GT-512MB-DDR3-graphics-card-PCIe/143513247797?hash=item216a0e6035:g:AecAAOSw4gVeHJga
tdp2612#3835: what about something like that
tdp2612#3835: if i wanted to go 9x
Jam#0384: That is a solid card
Jam#0384: It will run Crysis at High no issues
Jam#0384: You could even get away with Tomb Raider 2013 on that
Jam#0384: I've used one before
tdp2612#3835: anyway ive messaged the guy about the case, if its a yes and i can get it soon ish ill start bidding on stuff on ebay
Jam#0384: The Q8300 I would personally replace with a Q9650 or a Q9400 or something along those lines, theyre fairly affordable and can be found cheaply will outperform the early Core 2 Extremes no issue
tdp2612#3835: will most motherboards support them though |
Jam#0384: Core 2 Extreme is a collectible, it provides little benefit over having the cool name and better TIM.
tdp2612#3835: obvoisuly not the mega cheap oens, but would a basic ''''nice'''' board do
Jam#0384: If it supports the Q8300 it will support the Q9400
Jam#0384: Typically
tdp2612#3835: ah
Jam#0384: The Q9650 is a different story
tdp2612#3835: so any non oem thing should do
Jam#0384: No
Jam#0384: Not at allk
Jam#0384: LGA 775 was used from 2004-2009
tdp2612#3835: what about being boring and getting a q6600
Jam#0384: There are different generations of motherboards
Jam#0384: Q6600 will probably be slower than you Q8300
tdp2612#3835: wut
tdp2612#3835: i thought they were oc gods or somthing |
tdp2612#3835: the whole 'electrical tape over a pin' thing
Jam#0384: Your chip has half the cache, but a higher clock speed and FSB
Jam#0384: It also is a better manufacturing process
Jam#0384: But you cant be picky and choosy some boards only support 7xxx-9xxx or 9xxx only etc
Jam#0384: Compatibility has to be properly researched
Jam#0384: Some boards will support all or most cpus
tdp2612#3835: what about just using the 8300 until i get bored with it
tdp2612#3835: although being sure to get a board with support for further uopgrades
Jam#0384: I'd just get a board that can OC
Jam#0384: and mess with it
tdp2612#3835: what does that mean, what number do i look for
Jam#0384: If it can OC it will support a better CPU likely, given it can support your line of quad
Jam#0384: Theres no number you look for
Jam#0384: just look for LGA775 motherboards and when you see one that looks good, look up its specs and see what it supports

Jam#0384: definitely not the best overclocker by the looks of the 3 phase VRM but
Jam#0384: you could use it
tdp2612#3835: it should be fine for basic messing about hopefully |
SuSSudio#2688: 65nm C2Q had unlocked multiplier unlike Q8xxx & Q9xxx
tdp2612#3835: i dont know much about oc'ing anyway o i'm not looking to set records

Jam#0384: Like my mini itx board for z87 has twice that
Jam#0384: and its ITX
SuSSudio#2688: Isn't that literally my motherboard except mine is lx3
tdp2612#3835: eh if it gets me from 2.5 up to like 2.8 that would be cool
Jam#0384: It can probably do that
SuSSudio#2688: i topped at 3.1GHz with that board with Q9450
Jam#0384: But Dio is right
Jam#0384: About the overclocking
tdp2612#3835: ah
tdp2612#3835: so the 6000s were the good ones |
Jam#0384: But youre probably better off using a Q8400 because very solid performance at stock
SuSSudio#2688: I suggest you to get something like P43, P45 chipset since they'll oc much better with 8 phases VRM @tdp2612
Jam#0384: I have an ASUS P5B Deluxe
Jam#0384: 8Phase board
Jam#0384: very nice
tdp2612#3835: yeah but i dont wanna spend that sort of money
tdp2612#3835: this ones £13 :frobot2:
Jam#0384: I got it with 8GB ram and a qx6700 for like $40
SuSSudio#2688: iirc later 775 boards had issues with 65nm C2Q compat
Jam#0384: Yes
Jam#0384: Some dont
Jam#0384: some do
Jam#0384: The nForce SLI boards arent very good for compatibility, but since those come at a premium we can ignore them for this
tdp2612#3835: poggers
tdp2612#3835: seller has said the times ok |
tdp2612#3835: Im gonna get my mum to buy it for me :epicgamer:
tdp2612#3835: only because she works at a school around the corner from him
SuSSudio#2688: the p5g41?

tdp2612#3835: is that 2006 lan party or what
SuSSudio#2688: >AMD 64
SuSSudio#2688: But yeah, pretty fancy looking for its time
tdp2612#3835: this case is the only reason im looking at a retro 2000s build
tdp2612#3835: nevermind the box of old pc games, 80% of which dont work on windows 10
Jam#0384: Athlon 64 is cool
Alcyone#2233: just imagine all the dew that thing has seen guzzled in its day
Jam#0384: at least 4 dews |
tdp2612#3835: ill try take the sticker off carefully, and ill get a c2q one
Alcyone#2233: I shall name your pc, code red
Jam#0384: mountain dew
Jam#0384: code red
Alcyone#2233: needs a can of code red for a gpu brace
Jam#0384: I need an A64 sticker
Jam#0384: you could use a radeon card and an MSi motherboard
SuSSudio#2688: i hope lan party is still a thing today altho not as prevalent
Jam#0384: ultimate red build
Jam#0384: Lanparty as in DFI is not a thing
tdp2612#3835: again too expensive
Jam#0384: Lan parties do exist
SuSSudio#2688: you can never undersestimate sub 2ms ping
tdp2612#3835: although if I could find a cheap red motherboard id be up for it
tdp2612#3835: get some rgb lighting in there |
Jam#0384: I have a red motherboard but Socket 478 is a little too old for what you want
Alcyone#2233: DFI X570 Ultra DX
tdp2612#3835: hmmmmmm
Jam#0384: RIP DFI

Jam#0384: Lanparty boards when
Alcyone#2233: if dfi still made motherboards they would have twice the rgb of any other one
Jam#0384: thats a great price
tdp2612#3835: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gigabyte-X570-AORUS-ULTRA-AMD-X570-AM4-DDR4-PCIe-4-0-Triple-M-2-2-Way-SLi/324050137687?hash=item4b72e4b257:g:o6kAAOSwfrleKEt5

tdp2612#3835: like this but its shit
Alcyone#2233: asus tuf is the x570 board to get.
tdp2612#3835: yikes doesnt even support quad cores
SuSSudio#2688: must be pre c2 chipset |
tdp2612#3835: i cant remember, can you plastidip motherboards or no
Jam#0384: not recommended
Jam#0384: but if you know what youre doing
Jam#0384: yes

now heres a shit combo to start a cheap pc
Alcyone#2233: via chipset I think. should do core 2 6xxx
tdp2612#3835: yeah no quads
tdp2612#3835: cooler is pretty nice though
Alcyone#2233: 10 quid, pop in a c2d a cheap old pcie gpu and you have a decent xp maching
tdp2612#3835: but it doesnt support c2q as far as i can tell
Alcyone#2233: it should do 65nm. lemme check
Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/671142898208604160/unknown.png
tdp2612#3835: yeah so its a bit rubbish |
Alcyone#2233: youre gonna need a P board if you plan on doing anything good with it
tdp2612#3835: eh itll be fineeeeee
tdp2612#3835: and still i dont need that much power, i shouldnt need crazy overclocks to run nfsu2 and shit
tdp2612#3835: although i just run what i can on this pc anyway
tdp2612#3835: anyway im off to bed so yeet
tdp2612#3835: have fun reeeing at my complete uselessness with anything computer related
Jam#0384: If I'm being honest
Jam#0384: have 4 cores for games in the mid to late 2000s is almost irrelevant
Jam#0384: A cooler, more OCable dual core would perform better
tdp2612#3835: Again though I've already got the 8300 and I dont wanna spend any money :frobotmoment:
tdp2612#3835: I should probably check what spare connectors i have on the psu ill be using
tdp2612#3835: And hope that it still works, has been sat for a year
KeZz#4943: How do you disable the function keys without a Num lock on the keyboard. I think thats the way to do it, but with this keyboard there isnt a num lock button. At the moment pressing any of the function buttons just does the function, before on the other keyboard pressing F4 opened job select within Gmod, now it puts my PC to sleep and its annoying af.
tdp2612#3835: there should be a function button
tdp2612#3835: normally around the windows keys |
tdp2612#3835: num lock is for the num pad, not function keys
KeZz#4943: Ah, just read somewhere and they kept going on about num lock :/
KeZz#4943: Ive got a FN key, so pressing it will turn off the function buttons?
KeZz#4943: And let me use them for shortcuts?
KeZz#4943: I generally dont use the FN keys for anything, is there any way to permanently stop them from doing their functions. Dont need a pause, fast forward/back, sleep, search, share. Only ones i could use are the display buttons, but meh.
tdp2612#3835: yeah it should be a press it and itll turn off
tdp2612#3835: hopefully anyway
KeZz#4943: Its odd, pressed it. But now the button doesnt do anything. Tried the shortcut to record with shadowplay and it just...doesnt do anything.
Deleted User#0000: @KeZz what do you mean exactly by disable function keys?
Deleted User#0000: Are you using a laptop by chance?
KeZz#4943: Well, i want to just press an F key and for it to do what it does on the other keyboard.
KeZz#4943: I use a PC - but have a mechnical and then also a wireless keyboard.
KeZz#4943: The Mech one, for example, if i press F4 will open a Job selector within GMOD RP. Whilst on the other hand, on the wireless, it puts the PC to sleep (Has a moon Icon).
Deleted User#0000: That's just how they built the wireless one.
KeZz#4943: Im seeing if there is any way to just go back to pressing the key without pressing multiple at the same time to remove the main function. |
Deleted User#0000: You'll probably have to hold the fn key then press the function keys
Deleted User#0000: That's the only way
DarknessFalls229#2286: unless theres a way to reverse the fn function
Deleted User#0000: Nah
Deleted User#0000: Only time I've seen that is on laptops in the bios
Deleted User#0000: Only a select few
KeZz#4943: So for shadowplay, i have to press FN+ALT+F9?
KeZz#4943: Rather than ALT F9
Deleted User#0000: Give it a go
KeZz#4943: That worked, but still annoying 😄
KeZz#4943: Because it will take a while to get used to doing that
Deleted User#0000: @KeZz it is just how the keyboard is
Deleted User#0000: They're usually made to match laptop keyboards
KeZz#4943: At least i dont have to keep my other keyboard on hand just for F4 whlst on gmod
KeZz#4943: 😄 |
KeZz#4943: Thanks for your help, its a shame there isnt a way to just remove the functions, but ill live with pressing FN each time
Deleted User#0000: It's alright
KeZz#4943: Um, im full of issues lately it seems...
KeZz#4943: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/671348299982438430/IMG_20200127_133620.jpg
KeZz#4943: What does this mean? 🤔🤔
KeZz#4943: All is fine, then it gets really bright and lines appear, then other colour lines. And then...monitor reboots
KeZz#4943: All within like 2 seconds?
TheGeekster#8508: only the monitor reboots? or the PC does? if it's only the monitor then it's likely to be the LCD controller in the monitor, if it's the whole pc, it's the gpu
TheGeekster#8508: if possible, try another cable just incase though
KeZz#4943: Only display
KeZz#4943: Think its the HDMI possibly?
KeZz#4943: In regards to the LCD controller, are the fixes outside of replacement or repair? And how long can it go like that, will it just do that randomly every few days but be fine, or will it get worse and worse and die?
TheGeekster#8508: Honestly not really, does the display have any other inputs you could use? If not, then honestly thre's no way of repairing a monitor, unless you're willing to get VERY DIY
KeZz#4943: It has HDMI and Display port
KeZz#4943: So lets say i left it as is, how will it fair going forward? |
TheGeekster#8508: I mean it'll probably just keep failing and rebooting when it realises it's crashed
KeZz#4943: but will the time between crashes keep increasing?
KeZz#4943: Decreasing*
KeZz#4943: If it has an issue like this, but its every few days and lasts 2 seconds, but wont get worse, I can live with it. You know?
KeZz#4943: Do you think that switching to display port will fix the issue? Or that wont help at all? Its unlikely the wire is faulty, so my guess you are right with the LCD controller. But where does that stand in terms of impact on the monitor?
TheGeekster#8508: Unfortunately it's not a normal thing to go wrong, it could last another year, it could die in a few weeks, there's no real way of telling. If possible, test the other port, as it may only be the HDMI processing that is failing, unlikely, but possible
KeZz#4943: Ouch, possibly could die in a few weeks?
JustinXenyx#8854: Statistically, not really
JustinXenyx#8854: But if you end up winning the "lucky" draw you might have something fail in days
JustinXenyx#8854: If you are getting properly fucked the issue might also be with your 1050Ti. You've tried it in different ports i assume? @KeZz
KeZz#4943: Ports into the monitor?
KeZz#4943: Ive just switched from HDMI 1 to 2. Ill see if and when it happens again.
JustinXenyx#8854: Ports on the monitor or the graphics card
KeZz#4943: Ill then try a new cable (HDMI). If it happens again, ill go for a display cable and see if it does. If it does, then its either the 1050 or Monitor. right?
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah |
JustinXenyx#8854: If the issue does not occur with a laptop but the same input/cable on the monitor we can probably assume with great confidence that the 1050Ti is at fault for the issue
KeZz#4943: My problem testing wise, is that it takes so long for it to happen between each time
KeZz#4943: Really dont fancy using a laptop screen for 3 days to see it happen. That sounds like hell going from 60 hz, to 144 hz, and then back to 60 hz but smaller and worse quality.
KeZz#4943: 'But if you end up winning the "lucky" draw you might have something fail in days' what do you mean?
JustinXenyx#8854: Some products with inferior quality can slip through quality control
JustinXenyx#8854: And if you end up getting the product with worse quality it can fail within days of you buying it
JustinXenyx#8854: hence why "winning the "lucky" draw"
KeZz#4943: Justin, in the case where the Monitor is the issue. And it does this every 2-3 days, can you estimate when it will fail completely?
KeZz#4943: Rough estimate.
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd probably give it another 6 months before it completely dies
JustinXenyx#8854: But that's with the issue getting more and more rapid
KeZz#4943: So the time between the issue with get shorter. Annoying.
tdp2612#3835: ok this case is even better than i thought
tdp2612#3835: its all metal rather than plastic like i was expecting
tdp2612#3835: maybe i should make this my main rig case its that hot |
tdp2612#3835: HOLY FUCK IT HAS A SCREEN IN IT
tdp2612#3835: i really hope thats like a temp gauge or clock speed or something
tdp2612#3835: gonna need to clean it real bad though
tdp2612#3835: even all the metal on the edges inside is rolled so its not sharp
tdp2612#3835: nevermind i think the screen is a passthrough so you can see the fan behind
tdp2612#3835: and it might change colour
tdp2612#3835: ok i think these fans might end up in a bin
tdp2612#3835: theyre beyond disgusting
tdp2612#3835: and i have no can of air
tdp2612#3835: i think ill plug one in, see what colour they were, and look at replacements
tdp2612#3835: theyre absolutely grim, like theyve been in a garage for a decade
tdp2612#3835: ok for some reason the back one at least is blue
tdp2612#3835: and 2 of the lights are really bright, 2 are near dead
tdp2612#3835: as well as moving very little air

Jam#0384: @Tech Helper Will a modern 1000W RM1000x work on Socket 939 and newer
Deleted User#0000: yes
Jam#0384: I'm feeling optimistic about Socket 775 but dunno with 939 |
Deleted User#0000: i'd only be concerned for older early ATX
Deleted User#0000: which needs stronger 5v
Jam#0384: Im not planning on using it for anything before Socket 939
Deleted User#0000: but since it's a 1000w unit it should be capable for any 5v requirements
Jam#0384: And also the RM1000x actually has sufficient (but not ideal) 5V
Deleted User#0000: yeah
Jam#0384: But I feel like it would not work for other reasons
Jam#0384: on those boards
Jam#0384: Newer PSUs do often have incompatibilites with boards from before 12V cpu power in general
Jam#0384: not even because of 5V, just wont even power on
Jam#0384: The 5V is 25A which isnt awful, a Athlon XP 3000+ could run on there stock with a decent gpu
Deleted User#0000: yeah give it a shot
Jam#0384: I definitely bought it already

Alcyone#2233: @Jam modern psu should be fine as long as it has enough 5v for the cpu, the pcie and gpu ext power are 12v. wait you are agp guy.
Alcyone#2233: > AGP 3.0 specifies power from the 3.3V, 5V, and 12V rails. The spec allowed for a maximum of 41.8W (6A from 3.3V, 2A from 5V, 1A from 12V = 41.8W, and an additional 1.24W could come from the 3.3V auxiliary at 0.375A). By adding the four-pin connections, they extended the life of AGP cards as each supplied 6.5A or 110.5W from these right angle connections (12V + 5V or 17V x 6.5A = 110.5W)
so 2a on 5v for the agp slot ??? on how much the molex will pull from 5v

Tinybox#9112: @Tech Helper If I had a Board with an M.2 B Key (NVMe) (BOARD: MSI b350 pro-vdh, can I use a B+M Key to mSATA, then a mini PCI-e to A+E key.
To get "Laptop-WiFi" adapter working?
JustinXenyx#8854: No
TheGeekster#8508: yeah i'm gonna go with no as well
JustinXenyx#8854: Because mSATA is not miniPCIe
JustinXenyx#8854: M.2 has native sata capabilitys
JustinXenyx#8854: That mSATA port is gonna be SATA only
TheGeekster#8508: "B+M Key to mSATA" will include a sata controller onboard most likely |
Tinybox#9112: Actually,
Tinybox#9112: Everytime I want to send a pic edge crashes discord..well damn
Tinybox#9112: It's a direct adapter.#
Deinsti#5907: I recommend getting a PCIe-X1 to mini-PCIE adapter
Deinsti#5907: Assuming you have a spare PCIe slot
TheGeekster#8508: by the time you buy all the adapters i'd just buy a pcie wifi card, or a decent USB one
Tinybox#9112: Well plan 2 was this; ^
That, and then a mini PCIe>M.2 A+E Key
JustinXenyx#8854: Or just buy a m.2 wifi card lol
Tinybox#9112: I have an m.2 WiFi card
Tinybox#9112: But it's A+E KEy
Tinybox#9112: So I can't plug it directly into le board.
TheGeekster#8508: if it's keyed differently, it's to *stop* people doing this
Tinybox#9112: Guess so.
JustinXenyx#8854: it's a wifi card ffs lol @TheGeekster |

Tinybox#9112: I found I had another AX200NGW
Deleted User#0000: Either way it's a x1 slot |
Tinybox#9112: I think ill do this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/672164202118643744/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: No blutooth now though
Tinybox#9112: Mini pcie to X1 wifi card.
Tinybox#9112: Then an adapter.
Deleted User#0000: Does it support bluetooth @Tinybox
Deleted User#0000: The WiFi adapter
Tinybox#9112: It's an AX200NGW
Tinybox#9112: It does
Tinybox#9112: also 802.11ax
Tinybox#9112: BT 5.0
TheGeekster#8508: have you got an AX router?

Tinybox#9112: @TheGeekster No, but I already own it
Tinybox#9112: alright then, thanks guys
Deleted User#0000: The one I sent is cheaper than that mess you want to make. |
Deleted User#0000: And gives you Bluetooth.
TheGeekster#8508: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gigabyte-Wireless-AC1750-Bluetooth-5-0-Dual-Band-PCI-E-WiFi-Card-GC-WB1733D-I/293170026544
TheGeekster#8508: literally gigabyte has already done this
TheGeekster#8508: and for some unknown reason, it gives you an internal USB port
Tinybox#9112: that internal usb port enables BT
Tinybox#9112: Because X1 doesn't have enough for BT, or so it was
Deleted User#0000: @TheGeekster why are you being passive
Deleted User#0000: Calm down
Deleted User#0000: The internal USB is for Bluetooth
Deleted User#0000: Iirc
TheGeekster#8508: I was more amazed that gigabyte has literally done what we're looking at?
Tinybox#9112: Since the stuff comes from the UK and germany
Deleted User#0000: Why?
Tinybox#9112: o
Tinybox#9112: wanted to edit |
Tinybox#9112: @Deleted User It's cheaper in this case.
Deleted User#0000: I'm sure there's more than that one adapter
Deleted User#0000: I only looked at a few
Tinybox#9112: I come here after 3 hours of searching.
Tinybox#9112: It's basically the cheapest and fastest option in terms of shipping.
Deleted User#0000: Took me 10 seconds
Deleted User#0000: If you're going to put that thing into a 300mbps pcie card you may as well just buy a pcie WiFi card.
Deleted User#0000: Just buy a WiFi card if you don't care about the Bluetooth
Deleted User#0000: @Tinybox
Tinybox#9112: I only want to be able to jump on the 5G band.
And since I already have the AX200NGW, I might as well, since it won't cost me any extra.
Deleted User#0000: You can't.
Deleted User#0000: Not with that shitty card.
Deleted User#0000: That card only does 300mbps.
Tinybox#9112: The AX200NGW shitty? |
Deleted User#0000: The adapter
Deleted User#0000: The pcie one.
Deleted User#0000: I'm glad my board came with ac/bt4 built in
Tinybox#9112: I mean that PCIe one simply adapts minipcie to PCIe,
Do y mean the antennas?
Deleted User#0000: Yes
Deleted User#0000: Just buy the gigabyte one that geek sent
Deleted User#0000: If you want that functionality
Tinybox#9112: If the antennas are the problem I can easily replace them with my 5DBi Antenna set, which I can then replace them with. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/672169265129979915/IMG_20200129_205843.jpg
Tinybox#9112: The spacing for the screws seem to match up as well, so ill be able to use the bracket too

Xbox 360 1953#2640: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NJGtK4 What part do you guys think I should save up to upgrade next, aside from gpu?
Alcyone#2233: case or ssd
JustinXenyx#8854: like Alcyone said, case and ssd would be the first logical choice in my opinion @Xbox 360 1953
JustinXenyx#8854: If you want to fit a R9 390 in that case you'll gonna have to do some modding lol
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Nah it fit fine

Al Juboori A#6408: Hello & good evening. I have been as of lately been experiencing issues with my audio. My audio input will pick up whatever I hear. i.e. videos or the voice of whom im talking to on discord and play it back through my mic causing an echo. I tried looking at windows settings and discord settings but to no avail. Note that this doesn't only happen on discord. Moreover, playing Pubg.. i can only hear what's in front of me and nothing of what's behind. I tried to reinstall my audio drivers but both issues persisted. I have therefor determined with my technical ineptitude that the issue is with the motherboard's sound card and I'm looking to buy a separate sound card to solve the issue, and for that I need your help finding one that is cheap and does the job.
Al Juboori A#6408: My head set is the HyperX Alpha Cloud II
Al Juboori A#6408: and my Motherboard is the ASRock z370 pro
Al Juboori A#6408: Windows 10 64
DarknessFalls229#2286: tried looking at this setting? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/672494169784188928/unknown.png
JustinXenyx#8854: Your Cloud 2s have a seperate USB sound card
JustinXenyx#8854: your motherboard has jack shit to do with your headset @Al Juboori A
JustinXenyx#8854: oh wait
JustinXenyx#8854: Cloud Alphas are not Cloud 2s
Al Juboori A#6408: I did look at that @DarknessFalls229
JustinXenyx#8854: I'm pretty sure the cloud alphas still has a usb sound card though
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, i realized that was not the problem
Al Juboori A#6408: @JustinXenyx Let me make sure which is the exact model i have- but anyways i couldn't find the usb sound card the last time i looked
DarknessFalls229#2286: have you taken a look at the spatial sound settings? |
Al Juboori A#6408: I do not recall getting one i nthe box when i bought it.. about 1.5 years ago
JustinXenyx#8854: https://hyperxgaming.com/headsets/cloud-alpha-pro-gaming-headset these are cloud alphas
Al Juboori A#6408: that's the one i have
JustinXenyx#8854: yeah they don't have a USB sound card, only the Cloud IIs do iirc
JustinXenyx#8854: So you have a loopback issue, correct?
JustinXenyx#8854: loopback = your speaker signal looping back into your microphone signal
Al Juboori A#6408: Yes
Al Juboori A#6408: correct
Deleted User#0000: @JustinXenyx can I consider my phone dead at this point? It won’t charge although it shows a charging icon, i can’t get it into download or recovery and now it doesn’t turn on at this point
TheGeekster#8508: that sounds pretty bricked to me
Racey#8574: Prolly fucked bootloader
Racey#8574: But I don't know I'm phone tech illiterate
Al Juboori A#6408: @JustinXenyx any input on the issue ?
JustinXenyx#8854: @Al Juboori A What does it do when you unplug your microphone?
JustinXenyx#8854: Like not unplug it from the headset but unplugging the headsets mic cable from your PC |
Al Juboori A#6408: no loopback @JustinXenyx
JustinXenyx#8854: and with it plugged in, it loops back?
Al Juboori A#6408: yes.
Al Juboori A#6408: i just tested it
Al Juboori A#6408: asked a friend to yell once iplug it out ;o
JustinXenyx#8854: Can you record a audio sample of that?
Al Juboori A#6408: record what ? basically my friend can hear himself through my mic
Al Juboori A#6408: i can see my icon light up green when they speak
JustinXenyx#8854: Like play some music via your headphones and record your microphone audio
JustinXenyx#8854: I wanna hear how much and at what volume it loops back
Al Juboori A#6408: can we shortly enter a voice chat ? if you don't mind
JustinXenyx#8854: sure, i'm waiting
Deleted User#0000: I'm downloading something and it is 215 MB and at the start it said it's gonna take a hour, is that normal or not? I've changed ISP and while the speedtest has shown that my internet speed is good, I've been rather skeptical when downloading stuff
Deleted User#0000: I know this is not really tech but I was wondering maybe one of ya know about internet speed and all that stuff
TheGeekster#8508: what internet package are you on? and what internet speed did the test show you? |
TheGeekster#8508: when downloading things, it can also be dependant on where you're downloading from, as some websites throttle downloads
Deleted User#0000: The internet package is 200 Mb, and this is what I get on the speedtest, I'm downloading Gimp from it's website https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/672555430010028033/asd21.PNG
Deleted User#0000: I'm roughly downloading it at 100kb/s, though it sometimes goes around 80-140kb/s
tdp2612#3835: whats the website
Deleted User#0000: https://www.gimp.org/
tdp2612#3835: theres a good chance its just a dodgy website or something that cucks speed to make you pay for 'premium' / correct speed
tdp2612#3835: o
Deleted User#0000: Sorry for being vague
tdp2612#3835: uhhhhhh your internets being weird then
DarknessFalls229#2286: you know that youre still limited to the speed of which the gimp servers can upload their data right?
Deleted User#0000: Nope
tdp2612#3835: i dont remember gimp downloading slown though
TheGeekster#8508: eh, mine seems to be downloading okay

tdp2612#3835: good news
tdp2612#3835: ive put my 775 system together and it works
tdp2612#3835: only issues are theres no os, the cmos in both the case and mb seem to be dead
tdp2612#3835: and it gave a short beep every power on, but i dont know if that was a boot order/no os issue or because i had no keyboard plugged in
TheGeekster#8508: older systems have a "power on beep" it's all good @tdp2612
tdp2612#3835: ill film it quickly, i dont know shit about computers honestly
tdp2612#3835: i had to cannibalise some of an old 775 desktop case just to fit the cooler on, i probably bent the board a bit doing it
tdp2612#3835: https://youtube.com/video/8WCg-A9QztY |
tdp2612#3835: ignore the complete mess
TheGeekster#8508: that second little been sounds like a posting beep, so, i think it should be okay? really depends what happens if you plug a monitor in
tdp2612#3835: yeah it was giving me a post issue, it was saying INSERT BOOT DISC so i guess it needs the os installing first
tdp2612#3835: or for me to track down a windows xp cd

Galilool#3398: @SanteRaptor
SanteRaptor#2609: okay
SanteRaptor#2609: but which one?
Galilool#3398: No idea |
Galilool#3398: About that intel cooler though... Just throw it away, that's the only thing it's good for
DarknessFalls229#2286: might be both as fast, but i think the foxconn will be more quiet
SanteRaptor#2609: sound doesnt really matter
SanteRaptor#2609: as this is not a pc project
SanteRaptor#2609: also
SanteRaptor#2609: should both of these beat the fan i posted on #⌛slow-chat⌛?
SanteRaptor#2609: it is rated at 11.0 m3/h beating "mostish" sub 120mm noctua fans
SanteRaptor#2609: the job is to just push air trough a 3cm wide tube
TheGeekster#8508: @SanteRaptor From the design the everflow should probably give most throughput as it has minimal speed control, and is generally chunkier
SanteRaptor#2609: okay
SanteRaptor#2609: thank you

pep#4304: I built a 2005 era pc and it's not playing games as well as I hoped. Idk if it's just the parts I picked or software
TheGeekster#8508: what games? and what specs? @pep
pep#4304: Doom 3, hl2. Specs: Pentium 4 3ghz ht, 2gb ram, 256mb GeForce 7800 gtx |
tdp2612#3835: @Jam this is your corner too
tdp2612#3835: hmmm
tdp2612#3835: i mean the 2gb ram might be a bit limiting, and its only 256 rather than like a 320
JustinXenyx#8854: Are you running the games at a resolution from 2005?
JustinXenyx#8854: like 1024x768?
tdp2612#3835: o ye dont be running 1080p
pep#4304: 1024x768
tdp2612#3835: what do you count as 'not good'
tdp2612#3835: like 30fps mid settins?
pep#4304: I was doing alot of research and it seemed people were getting fps in the hundreds. That only happens in hl2 for me and alot of the time it dips all the way down to the 30s. Doesn't matter if it's on lowest settings
tdp2612#3835: i dont think you should be getting hundreds of frames
tdp2612#3835: i mean hl2 likes to load in small chunks
tdp2612#3835: so there will be a lot of stutters when you move around alot
pep#4304: It's dips in areas with alot of clutter or reflections
pep#4304: I would've thought that bringing the graphics down would help, but no matter what settings for both games, they still run the same |
Jam#0384: Geforce graphics cards are not the best in 2002-2006
Jam#0384: not to mention Pentium 4 is pretty slow for 2005
Jam#0384: If you wanted a high end graphics card you would want at least a higher clocked (2.2+GHz Athlon 64) and yes a 2.2GHz Athlon 64 would beat the P4 by a long shot
Jam#0384: 2 cores could help, Athlon X2 or Pentium D (even as P4 the two cores help)
Jam#0384: 2GB of RAM is fine
Jam#0384: But those specs should have no issue with Half Life 2 or DOOM 3
Jam#0384: I’ve maxed out Doom 3 on a similar system with 50-60FPS easily
Jam#0384: P4 3.0GHz HT, 2GB DDR, and a GeForce 7800GS AGP
Jam#0384: Don’t expect 100+ fps in games when doing period correct
Jam#0384: Except 30-50 max, at best
Jam#0384: Sometimes you couldn’t even run it at max until a few generations later
Jam#0384: @pep
pep#4304: I do have an athlon x2, just gotta get the motherboard back. I had a feeling the P4 was not as good
pep#4304: Isn't a single 7800 better than 6800 in sli? That's what I heard from forums at the time
JustinXenyx#8854: Given the completely shit track record of multi GPU optimization probably |
pep#4304: Also when I bought the 7800, I wasn't sure how well it would run cause I think it's an oem variant. Could that also effect performance?
Jam#0384: No
Jam#0384: But the 7800 series is comparable to ATi’s 2004 midrange cards
Jam#0384: Aka not good when technology gets much better each year at this time
Jam#0384: I would honestly have gone with an X1950 Pro because that can run crysis on High preset with a fast enough cpu and the 7800 can only run it on low w/ medium shaders and textures
Jam#0384: Or X1900XT or X1800XL or X1900XTX whatever
Jam#0384: Any of them would work
Jam#0384: Yeah funny thing about 2005 is Intel+Nvidia rigs were worse in terms of perf
Jam#0384: In under 2 years that statement was the opposite

Xbox 360 1953#2640: Epic
SuSSudio#2688: ngl the mobo seems really strong, probably bc i've never used as much throughout mid 2010s
tdp2612#3835: eh possibly
SuSSudio#2688: Was busier with mobile phones
tdp2612#3835: my mums laptop im pretty sure had 1 stick of 3gb |
JustinXenyx#8854: Well, while my rig basically got replaced in its entirety during the last year (- storage, psu and my beloved GTX660)
JustinXenyx#8854: From a E5 2690V2, 64GB of RAM to a R5 2600 and 32GB of RAM while i sold my old Fractal R5 and am now using a pretty mediocre case from 2003 while deciding on my next case
JustinXenyx#8854: If i can get these R9 390s fixed or atleast one of them i could replace this GTX660 easily
SuSSudio#2688: Pc cases can be last resort if you're not using it for shows :Hahaha:
SuSSudio#2688: I'm still stuck with that bargain trash can aluminum matx case from early 2010s :DickPick:
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I have a shitty rosewill case for now
SuSSudio#2688: It had just began showing rusts around the peripheral tray pillars:Hahaha:
Xbox 360 1953#2640: uh oh
Xbox 360 1953#2640: no bueno
Jam#0384: I want a mediocre 2003 pc case
Jam#0384: For my old shit
tdp2612#3835: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/673628987662008320/DSC_1386.JPG
tdp2612#3835: I now have a better psu for my 775 pc than my main rig lul
PumpKPie#7619: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jsg9tp how's this? got a 650W psu and a gtx 1070 windforce oc that would be paired with them
JustinXenyx#8854: what kind of 650W psu |
JustinXenyx#8854: also, that case is kinda cringeworthy because it has basically no airflow
Alcyone#2233: if a green label cx is the better of the two I kinda feel bad for your main
tdp2612#3835: yeah thats a really dull case for a 1070
tdp2612#3835: and my main is a vs 550 *orange* :frobot2:
tdp2612#3835: but hey it works, and ive already cable tied it all up
PumpKPie#7619: @JustinXenyx i.. should check... should do tho. the case I don't care about rly
Alcyone#2233: asus prime or tuf has a better vrm than that msi board as well
PumpKPie#7619: the case is gonna be hidden in the pc compartment in my desk anyways.. so I shouldn't give a damn about aestetics
PumpKPie#7619: vrm?
Alcyone#2233: power delivery
JustinXenyx#8854: Then don't give a damn about aesthetics and give a damn about airflow
ShidoPixel#4650: Yep
JustinXenyx#8854: No airflow means hotter components for no good reason
ShidoPixel#4650: Agree
PumpKPie#7619: fair enough |
PumpKPie#7619: any case recommendations at the same pricepoint? same would be appreciated w/ the mobo
tdp2612#3835: find something like mine
tdp2612#3835: corsair spec anythings are pretty cheap now
tdp2612#3835: just look for something with a grille at the front and preferably 2 intake fans
ShidoPixel#4650: @PumpKPie
Alcyone#2233: cougar 330 is about the cheapest case with good airflow I think
PumpKPie#7619: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Mid-Tower-ATX-Cases/spec-alpha-config/p/CC-9011083-WW what about this one?
Alcyone#2233: phanteks p300A should be out soon too. $60 with a mesh front and its pretty compact for atx
PumpKPie#7619: I rly need to look into that subject
PumpKPie#7619: More so that most cases aren't available in my country
RandomTacos#3695: Does the Ryzen master utility actually show the correct temps now? Or is it still 20°C off or whatever it was
Tinybox#9112: I found the issue to all my WiFi issues,
My router is fucky with 802.11ac.
Checked router settings, on 5G I can only mix it with 802.11n/ac or ac only.
Is there a way to force windows to connect with 802.11n every time? |
(This isn't an issue on my INTEL Chips (since that option is in plain view, but on my Atheros ones>I can't find any option like that)
TheFifthAce#4128: @Deinsti I need the stripped down version of 8.1 meme but with a browser
TheFifthAce#4128: :crome:
TheGeekster#8508: @Tinybox Change the SSID so you've got two seperate 2.4ghz and 5ghz networks
JustinXenyx#8854: ^
JustinXenyx#8854: Anything is fucky if 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz share the same SSID
Tinybox#9112: Thanks guys.
I just seperated them, it's still fucky however, I called up one of my friends, and they helped me solve it (thelegend: the guy that gave me that amazing haul)
Anything 5G on ac, goes r.i.p... I guess it's new router time soon
TheGeekster#8508: don't forget that AC wifi has shite range too
exquisitedark#1117: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/674347373622984744/unknown.png
exquisitedark#1117: tryna convert fat32 to ntfs
exquisitedark#1117: do i even bother running chkdsk again
TheGeekster#8508: delete the partition and create a new ntfs partition
Tinybox#9112: OCZ deneva 2, 480gb. |
30 euros worth it or nah?
JustinXenyx#8854: Given that it's OCZ and i have never heard of it i'd guess it is ATLEAST 5 years old
JustinXenyx#8854: So: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IiHRSBAMwU
JustinXenyx#8854: Guessing that Deneva 2 also has a lot of read/write cycles on it, given that it seems to be an enterprise drive
Tinybox#9112: yea prob.
Tinybox#9112: Is it worth it though?
JustinXenyx#8854: Answer is the same
Tinybox#9112: aH
JustinXenyx#8854: SSD is gonna fail you in no time
Tinybox#9112: ***I didn't see that***
Xbox 360 1953#2640: After replacing the fans on my r9 390 the fan speed only goes up to 1360rpm, doesn't go higher when I change it. Is there something wrong with it?
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Even after changing it to max in both Msi afterburner and wattman it stays at that rpm
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Wai I just remembered I flicked a weird switch on my gpu
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I'm going to look up the manual
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Either it's a dual bios thing or a fan curve switch |
Lady Mipha#0611: Probably a bios switch
Lady Mipha#0611: From gaming mode to low power mode
Xbox 360 1953#2640: OK so
SuSSudio#2688: I can assure you if it was fan profile switch it could be overridden with AMD OD or MSI Afterburner, from experience with my Cyclone R6850
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I found some damage to the fan cable
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Oh the picture is too big gimme a sec
Xbox 360 1953#2640: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/96028420848230400/674440787483820032/IMG_20200204_212604.png after putting tape around that my card works fine
JustinXenyx#8854: I know that heatpipe layout a bit too well
JustinXenyx#8854: R9 390 Nitro? @Xbox 360 1953
JustinXenyx#8854: also, looks like oine of the fan cables got melted
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Xfx double dissipation
xXSUBEXx#9544: Could it that my Coolermaster gx 750w bronze is failling to power my Gpu (Zotac Geforce Gtx 1070 amp extreme), so it will blackscreen?
TheGeekster#8508: Eh, not likely, if a PSU can't supply the power anymore, it'll probably trigger a system reset
tdp2612#3835: yeah not really, thats a perfectly usable psu
JustinXenyx#8854: It depends |
JustinXenyx#8854: While the power supply in itself should be able to provide enough power, it's 10 years old now and will have lost a decent amount of power to aging
JustinXenyx#8854: If your power supply is not able to handle the card because it can't simply handle the current draw overcurrent protection might kick in and just shut down the system
xXSUBEXx#9544: well then what else could cause the blackscreens while playing
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Blackscreen, as in you can still hear and interact with things, only the screen is dead or a full system restart?
xXSUBEXx#9544: audio is still there when it is on the blackscreen
JustinXenyx#8854: Hmmm
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Sounds like the GPU.
JustinXenyx#8854: Tried a system wipe or using a different windows install?
JustinXenyx#8854: Drivers could be messing with you in some way or another
xXSUBEXx#9544: the gpu fans got to full also
xXSUBEXx#9544: but it isnt overheating
JustinXenyx#8854: Maybe the GPU core itself isn't overheating, but something else is?
JustinXenyx#8854: Like the GPUs power delivery?
xXSUBEXx#9544: most likely the gpu failing but iam no expert
xXSUBEXx#9544: when i run the furmark gpu stress test it happens and also occasionaly while playing fivem/gta |
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Can you get your hands on a different PSU?
xXSUBEXx#9544: i have a made in china one and a big one out of a pc that i suspect is failing because i could smell chemicals smoke
TheGeekster#8508: if the gpu fans go to 100% it means it's failed into "oh fuck" mode, try some older drivers for it? if not, then kaput gpu
xXSUBEXx#9544: kaput u see ur german haha
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: The made in China one, what's the wattage?
xXSUBEXx#9544: 429 and hats certainly not enough
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: OK, just try older drivers for now.
xXSUBEXx#9544: ok
xXSUBEXx#9544: how old ?
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: What's your current version?
xXSUBEXx#9544: i think the newest+
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Well, blackscreen didn't happen until you update it or?
xXSUBEXx#9544: i think about a year back gta only froze
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Try something 3 versions back from your current one.
xXSUBEXx#9544: ok |
Tinybox#9112: Okay, so,,
I can't find my Media creation tool usb..
I can't find my DVD ISO...
I don't have any spare USBs...
-----
Is it possible for me to use my 1TB external drive to install windows?
Well more like "in-place reinstall"
Since I want to keep all the files.
why am I reinstalling:
Windows search is hella broke, I tried everything probably, well everything on this page
https://www.windowscentral.com/how-fix-taskbar-search-not-working-windows-10
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: ```Is it possible for me to use my 1TB external drive to install windows?

Tinybox#9112: (1^) |
TheGeekster#8508: unsure if windows media creation tool will let you do it, but there are ways of doing it, i'd look up "boot iso from external hard drive" or "install windows from external hard drive"
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Uh, it's only available when you reinstall inside a preexisting installation.
Tinybox#9112: aight thanks ill look it up
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Or if you use the built-in Reset feature.
TheGeekster#8508: https://www.trishtech.com/2018/12/how-to-install-windows-10-from-an-external-hard-drive/
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: https://rufus.ie/
Tinybox#9112: alright.
Tinybox#9112: The in-built windows reset feature is a meme if I remember...
JustinXenyx#8854: Does the system you want to reinstall windows on have UEFI?
Tinybox#9112: yea
JustinXenyx#8854: If yes, just create a new partition with the windows ISO on it
JustinXenyx#8854: the UEFI can tell if a drive has multiple partitions
Tinybox#9112: So basically, just install the iso and dump it into the drive?
Tinybox#9112: Since the external is empty anyway
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh if it's empty just yeet it on there |
JustinXenyx#8854: I thought you had like important data on the drive or something
Tinybox#9112: nah it's a new seagate expansion blabla usb 3.0
Tinybox#9112: Anyway..how do I um?
Tinybox#9112: make rufus install?
Tinybox#9112: the iso as well?
Tinybox#9112: found it
Tinybox#9112: I hope it'll work
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/674611431462666250/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: ill install 1809
JustinXenyx#8854: no
JustinXenyx#8854: 1809 is getting forced update to 1909 already
JustinXenyx#8854: So don't bother
JustinXenyx#8854: Just install 1903 or 1909 directly
Tinybox#9112: ah well..it's already 13% thru...
Tinybox#9112: As long as my search bar works... |
TheGeekster#8508: it'll take much longer to upgrade from 1803 to 1909 than it would to just redo it with 1909 lol, trust me, currently on PC 86 in the company updating, it's painful compared to a clean install
TheGeekster#8508: (that's WITH downloading 1909 offline onto a local network share)
jay1185#0112: lol the iso i had was super old, 12340 or something. only took like an hour to install and update to 1909
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Does this seem alright? my gpu is a bit loud right now and I don't know if that is good or not https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/674681159006945320/unknown.png
MythologicalZ#3752: For a 370 it's not good
MythologicalZ#3752: When was your last repaste?
Xbox 360 1953#2640: its a 390
Xbox 360 1953#2640: and like sunday
MythologicalZ#3752: Your name is gay 🙏
MythologicalZ#3752: But still
MythologicalZ#3752: What model?
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Just fixed it
MythologicalZ#3752: If it's a blower it's half feasible
Xbox 360 1953#2640: no
Xbox 360 1953#2640: two fans on it |
MythologicalZ#3752: Which card then?
TheGeekster#8508: thatttt sounds like a mucked up repasting
Xbox 360 1953#2640: https://www.newegg.com/xfx-radeon-r9-390-r9-390p-8256/p/N82E16814150729
TheGeekster#8508: did it do this before you respasted?
Xbox 360 1953#2640: before this the fans didnt work so i dunno
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I'd repaste again but i don't have any to use
JustinXenyx#8854: maybe the fans aren't working properly?
JustinXenyx#8854: For like 4k RPM those temps sure look wrong
MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I don't know
MythologicalZ#3752: Money is either on fans going bad or a shoddy repaste
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Since the fans are being a bit loud
MythologicalZ#3752: Those xfx duals aren't bad coolers
MythologicalZ#3752: What case are you using?
MythologicalZ#3752: Might be the issue too |
Xbox 360 1953#2640: shitty rosewill fbm 01
Xbox 360 1953#2640: only demandingish thing open is fuckin ts4
MythologicalZ#3752: Could be the case blocking airflow but I doubt it's that big of a deal
MythologicalZ#3752: Could try pulling the side panel and seeing if there's a difference
Xbox 360 1953#2640: i'll see what it does
Xbox 360 1953#2640: it's chillin at nearly 60c with ts4 closed
Xbox 360 1953#2640: now with ts4 open its at the same temps
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I had to tell xbox game bar to fuck off with the recording, that might have been part of the problkem
Xbox 360 1953#2640: actually no that fixed nothing, I just forgot that after restarting ts4 i had lowered the settings
Xbox 360 1953#2640: after raising them again the gpu is hot again
Clode#2428: Is Firefox better than chrome on a potato pc?
Jam#0384: Yes
Jam#0384: Newish releases of Firefox still work on WinXP
JustinXenyx#8854: @Xbox 360 1953 Either TS4 is way more demanding than i'd give it credit for or something is seriously fucked with your R9 390
JustinXenyx#8854: maybe mounting pressure is off? |
