Slyse#2578: yeah, everytime after going into the BIOS, it freezes after 5-10 sec, then trying to restart it up again, it has a constant red led on the CPU qled Slyse#2578: after clearing the cmos and reseating the cpu it let me stay in the BIOS for a good 1min without crashing, but then after exiting the BIOS, the same thing started happening again TheGeekster#8508: yeahhhhh, sounds like something is unstable, tbh the 8th gen are still pretty good, i wouldn't look past replacing the cpu, maybe even under warranty if possible? Slyse#2578: Still under warranty yeah, I'll have to see how that plays out Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Did you move or reseat the CPU? Slyse#2578: reseated, took it off completely and put it back in Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Uh, you might want to check the pins. Charlie Foxtrot#9831: For dirt or any broken ones. Slyse#2578: did this too DarknessFalls229#2286: does it have dual bios? Slyse#2578: couldn't see any clear defect, at least with a quick glance DarknessFalls229#2286: perhaps its a bios issue, though somehow doubt it when it _tries_ to go into windows Slyse#2578: not sure if it has a dual BIOS, how can I tell? Slyse#2578: It tries to go into windows, but really hangs up like a sec or two into the spinning circle Slyse#2578: same with BIOS, if I enter the utility, it freezes a few seconds into it
DarknessFalls229#2286: after resetting cmos did you choose the correct sata setting? Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Doesn't seem to mention anything about dual BIOSes. Slyse#2578: only tried to load up the defaults. It does recognize the HDDs connected Charlie Foxtrot#9831: ```128 Mb Flash ROM, UEFI AMI BIOS, PnP, WfM2.0, SM BIOS 3.0, ACPI 6.0, Multi-language BIOS, ASUS EZ Flash 3, CrashFree BIOS 3, F11 EZ Tuning Wizard, F6 Qfan Control, F3 My Favorites, Last Modified log, F12 PrintScreen, and ASUS DRAM SPD (Serial Presence Detect) memory information.``` Slyse#2578: one time I got a BSOD that said something about IRQ No Less or Equal, I think Slyse#2578: during this process, I mean TheGeekster#8508: That generally points to drivers, but it's a very... general error message Slyse#2578: that's what I gather, yeah Clode#2428: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701100439210557541/Screenshot_20200418-170233_Chrome.jpg Clode#2428: Is it a good price? tdp2612#3835: i wouldnt say so, not massively Clode#2428: Thanks tdp2612#3835: like id say thats a perfectly average price read bio/description#8459: Hello, was there ever a version of the HD 7770 that looked like this? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701157513164357642/images1000x700.png TheGeekster#8508: not that i can see from looking it up on google images
JustinXenyx#8854: Not a 7770, but probably a 7750 or 7730 @read bio/description read bio/description#8459: are these cards good? @JustinXenyx TheGeekster#8508: *look them up* read bio/description#8459: @TheGeekster searched them up, none look like this one TheGeekster#8508: no you asked if these cards are good, i'd suggest looking up benchmarks of the 7750 and 7730 TheFifthAce#4128: looks like an HD 5570 The United States Air Force#7904: I am wondering why this system isn't posting the GPU and ram work https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701206382816264262/JPEG_20200418_180242.jpg TheGeekster#8508: what happens when you power it on? The United States Air Force#7904: Fans spin up The United States Air Force#7904: But no display The United States Air Force#7904: Doesn't even spin loudly TheGeekster#8508: Tried with just one ram stick? varying different slots? The United States Air Force#7904: Hmm lemme see The United States Air Force#7904: Nope tdp2612#3835: do you know if each of the parts work?
tdp2612#3835: are they all known good The United States Air Force#7904: I know the gpu and ram work The United States Air Force#7904: CPU should The United States Air Force#7904: Work tdp2612#3835: can you try a display out of the board The United States Air Force#7904: It doesn't have any The United States Air Force#7904: You need a dedicated gpu tdp2612#3835: ah tdp2612#3835: that was a dumb assumption of me JustinXenyx#8854: firstly, i'd reduce the system to the least components as possible JustinXenyx#8854: only use 1 ram stick, use a basic display adapter, hell maybe even take the cooler off to see if the CPU even gets warm The United States Air Force#7904: Hmm theres no cmos in it but I'd expect it to work without a cmos The United States Air Force#7904: CPU is not getting warm JustinXenyx#8854: also, that PSU really looks suspicious in my opinion tdp2612#3835: try put a cmos in just for the sake of it
The United States Air Force#7904: It is JustinXenyx#8854: I'd try swapping that with something better read bio/description#8459: Hey, I have a question. There are 2 ram slots on the motherboard, 2 ram sticks sit in them. They have the same speeds, the same voltage same everything except the size (4gb+2gb), will this work in dual channel? Racey#8574: it's one dimm dual channel Racey#8574: Each of them are in their own ram channels TheGeekster#8508: it'll run dual channel to the smallest size, so 2gb will be dual channel, and 2gb extra will be single channel TheGeekster#8508: (depending on motherboard, etc) read bio/description#8459: Damn, that sucks. read bio/description#8459: What if I have 2 ram sticks, both 4 gb ddr3 but one is 1333 MHz and the other is 1600 MHz? JustinXenyx#8854: I don't even think that applies after LGA1155 @TheGeekster read bio/description#8459: It will go to 1333 MHz but will it be dual channel? JustinXenyx#8854: @read bio/description dual channel at lowest clockspeed that both sticks can run read bio/description#8459: phew read bio/description#8459: better than the first option read bio/description#8459: If the slot/mobo doesn't support 1600 MHz it will work at 1333 MHz right?
TheGeekster#8508: yeah read bio/description#8459: Mk. read bio/description#8459: After calculation the stuff I found rn goes 30-50 PLN over my budget. Gotta save up a bit I guess. read bio/description#8459: Mk, thanks. read bio/description#8459: If this isn't an HD 7770 (or 7750/7730) then what could it be? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701402014722031706/images1000x700.png Yannikau#9606: Maybe HD 75xx? TheGeekster#8508: ask the seller for a model number read bio/description#8459: Ok, I think I found it... seems to be a HD 5670 TheGeekster#8508: otherwise you're just guessing read bio/description#8459: seems close https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701402899229442099/20200115_09_47_034_patrycja.png read bio/description#8459: I asked him for a pic from GPU-Z just to be sure. read bio/description#8459: Hey, I found a good motherboard (finally), ofc its a dell so hey, front panel connectors issues here we go. I found a pinout on how to get the power done, but I still have 3 connectors left: Power Led, HDD Led and USB (actually its 1 USB + SD card slots, which is why I want to use it), how can I do this? Will '8' work for the USB connector? This motherboard is a Dell OptiPlex 790 MT. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701408195809378374/unknown.png read bio/description#8459: Here's the power switch pinout. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701408268513312848/Untitled.png read bio/description#8459: Could this help? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701408622764228608/44c6443.png read bio/description#8459: btw. seems like mt and dt had the same mobo
read bio/description#8459: It's almost the same, it literally only has 1 sata connector removed and thats it TheGeekster#8508: Yes it will work read bio/description#8459: Ok, I'm bout to order it. One more thing: is the HD 6850 any good? Compared to the GTX 650 and HD 7770 Lady Mipha#0611: 7770 over 6850 due to drivers MythologicalZ#3752: Terascale drivers are a joke, avoid the 6850 read bio/description#8459: Thought so. Too bad all the deals on the HD 7770 are gone :/ SuSSudio#2688: @read bio/description I'm late but here's some words from me : HD6850 is decent if you're playing older titles (2015 & older) in 720p. SuSSudio#2688: I can't say my average fps with CSGO as i run with Q9450 that suffers from frame dips in crowded situations however i can get atleast 160fps when there's nothing going on in low settings. Bisexual Billy#9476: Terascale is decent but in heavily intensive modern titles, I wouldn't recommend. I remember issues with Playing BF1 on a 6950 (flashed to 6970 and back to 6950 again) and I got black artifacts on the screen, however BF4 actually ran really well on that GPU. SuSSudio#2688: HD6970 though is still somewhat special to me even if it's this old & has 'mediocre' drivers. It was my childhood dream to get behind that card. HD 6850 almost got me that feel, but it's just a beefed up Terascale 2 card. read bio/description#8459: Right now I'm focused on getting that dell motherboard etc. Bisexual Billy#9476: I used a friends one back when I upgraded to a GTX 260 in my own PC.
I was blown away by the performance, I built a new PC with a GTX 960 and used a 6970 in my Server after my 2600XT died. SuSSudio#2688: That, it was such a monster card, tears almost any early 2010s games Bisexual Billy#9476: @read bio/description I'd recommend an XPS system if you're going that route, and if you have enough room for it. Great systems, very expandable. read bio/description#8459: I'm already set on the mobo, but thanks. Bisexual Billy#9476: @SuSSudio I agree, it even ran BF4 1080p high at 70ish fps. I was pleasently surprised for such an old card tbh. Bisexual Billy#9476: @read bio/description Ah right, what kind of hardware are you going for out of curiousity? read bio/description#8459: Dell 790 MT Mobo, 4x2 GB DDR3 1333 MHz, i3 2120/2100 not sure here, and GTX 650/HD 7770, depends on which I can get cheaper. SuSSudio#2688: > I agree, it even ran BF4 1080p high at 70ish fps. I was pleasently surprised for such an old card tbh. I'll be getting one sometime. a must have card to go into my collection shelf Bisexual Billy#9476: @read bio/description Where about's in the world are you? read bio/description#8459: Poland. Bisexual Billy#9476: @SuSSudio It is a legendary card, I got to play with a 6990 before. those things were beasts back in the day! although they require a lot to cool.
read bio/description#8459: The cheapest 1155 i5 is like 7x the cost of the i3, so I'm getting an i3 instead. read bio/description#8459: i5 is only possible with 1156 for me at the moment. SuSSudio#2688: > I got to play with a 6990 before. those things were beasts back in the day! although they require a lot to cool. That was early 2010s kid wet dream. Oh man. read bio/description#8459: But there aren't any good cheap 1156 mobos here (there were some, but someone bought them before me) Bisexual Billy#9476: Ah, I was about to say, how come you're getting a i3. that explains it. GCN Gen 1 (7770) is not a bad choice but if you can up it to a 7790, should be a similar price and form factor but a lot more performance. SuSSudio#2688: You won't regret getting 7790 Pol4k. solid midrange card read bio/description#8459: The 1155 i5s are so damn expensive for whatever reason. Bisexual Billy#9476: @SuSSudio Terascale 2 is why I am using an AMD GPU in my PC along side my NVidia GPU, AMD Driver support especially on the Polaris stuff is amazing, works out of the box. read bio/description#8459: Meanwhile 1156 boards are either weird form factor or don't have a PCI-e x16 or are just way out of the budget. Bisexual Billy#9476: LGA 1156 is just overpriced in general in europeian countrys.
read bio/description#8459: Yeah, I did have some deals, was gonna buy one, but my mom was like we'll do it in the evening (obv she has the bank account) so I agreed... then it sold. SuSSudio#2688: I've been a radeon user since i got my first pc, i had 2600 Pro as my 1st video card. I still keep it today, it died unfortunately. SuSSudio#2688: Then i went with geforce 210 for a few months, & finally got a 1GB HD4670 later in the year. HD4670 accompanied my childhood that it makes the longest video card i've ever owned in my life. I sold it almost a year ago. Bisexual Billy#9476: it actually makes more sense to go LGA 2011 (v1) in the UK. even then 1st gen AM4 CPU's are competing at a somewhat similar price level on the used market. @SuSSudio I've been a NVidia user on my main PC's although I've owned a lot of machines with AMD Graphic cards in them, I've been particularly impressed with the driver support on Linux. That's why I'm using both a Radeon graphics card and NVidia GPU on my current machine. read bio/description#8459: Damn, CeX is out of DDR3 except 8 GB sticks. Bisexual Billy#9476: How much are the 8GB sticks? read bio/description#8459: hold up read bio/description#8459: 100 PLN per stick (19,25 GBP/24 USD) read bio/description#8459: Aka too much
Śnieżka#3486: Right so I reinstalled my windows 10 copy and yet I still am having issues with booting up. It looks like the first time I boot up after a long period the windows only loads up to the point of showing its logo and it freezes at this point. I have to force reset my pc. Any way of fixing this? read bio/description#8459: @Śnieżka What is the OS installed on? Śnieżka#3486: an SSD Śnieżka#3486: if thats what you're asking about read bio/description#8459: Is the SSD old? Śnieżka#3486: Nope read bio/description#8459: Give ur full specs Śnieżka#3486: its got about 3000 hours of uptime Śnieżka#3486: ok one sec SuSSudio#2688: Have you tried resetting CMOS? Śnieżka#3486: FX6200 @ 4.4GHz 8GB of Geil DDR3 RAM Asus Crosshair IV Formula 120GB Adata SSD 500GB Segate HDD
480GB Crucial SSD Śnieżka#3486: and an Asus R9 270x read bio/description#8459: U sure the OS is on the SSD? Śnieżka#3486: Yes, I even made sure to wipe the whole drive so that nothing is left behind read bio/description#8459: Which SSD did u use for the OS? Śnieżka#3486: The 120GB one SuSSudio#2688: Usually if it's not improper voltage, it's the RAM that's getting worn read bio/description#8459: Ok, idk then to be completely honest with u Śnieżka#3486: I had this problem previously when I updated win7 to win10 and people said its because of that so because I have much more free time I reinstalled w10 with hopes of this problem vanishing but I guess not Bisexual Billy#9476: That is a good thing to check. Asus can sometimes be a little dodgy with Ram Voltages, especially pre-2017 Asus. SuSSudio#2688: ^^^ MythologicalZ#3752: That's vague MythologicalZ#3752: Sounds like a bad install or a dying drive MythologicalZ#3752: What model is it
Śnieżka#3486: u h h Śnieżka#3486: hold on a sec Śnieżka#3486: SU650 MythologicalZ#3752: :crome: MythologicalZ#3752: Su650 is an alright drive MythologicalZ#3752: I would try a fresh install and see if that helps MythologicalZ#3752: Have you checked health stats recently? Śnieżka#3486: I legit reinstalled windows 2 days ago Śnieżka#3486: > Have you checked health stats recently? I got the same idea so I'm doing that just now Śnieżka#3486: ok it's got a bit more hours than I thought, 3663 to be exact Bisexual Billy#9476: I'd check ram voltage. see if it's staying at 1.5v. Have you tried a clean startup?
Śnieżka#3486: 1. I'll check ram voltage when it stops scanning the ssd for errors 2. no Śnieżka#3486: But I did notice that it happened even when it was rebooting while still installing Śnieżka#3486: ya know that one bit when it restarts the pc Bisexual Billy#9476: Ah, in that case it's either the ram doing something it's not supposed to (ie overvolt/undervolt itself to the point it's unstable), or the SSD might be faulty. how many sticks do you have? Śnieżka#3486: One 8 gig Śnieżka#3486: from Geil Śnieżka#3486: Corsa Evo I think Bisexual Billy#9476: One other thing you can check as well is see the timings on the stick. it'll either show you the full set of timings on the label or give you something like "CL11" or "CL9" so I'd check that and check if it matches in the UEFI. Śnieżka#3486: what I can say for sure is that this ram stick does not like being oc'd Śnieżka#3486: I tried everything and it just doesn't go above 1600 Śnieżka#3486: wait no I once got it to be at 1900 but the overall performance was much worse
Śnieżka#3486: HD Tune result https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701435869294493816/unknown.png Bisexual Billy#9476: it might be the motherboard might have set it to too low of a voltage out of the box. it's a common issue in my experiance with Asus motherboards, to be either over the standard voltage or under it. Bisexual Billy#9476: or it could be the timings are screwed? for what reason, I'm not sure but it's another thing worth checking. Śnieżka#3486: Okay, so you're saying it's probably a problem with the ram yes? read bio/description#8459: Guys, what's better? GTX 650 or R7 250? Bisexual Billy#9476: Either Ram or SSD. if it's the SSD, you may have to buy another. if it's the ram you can just set these settings to what the manufacturer recommended, that works 9 times out of 10 with these types of problems. Śnieżka#3486: Jesus I legit got that ssd a year ago Śnieżka#3486: and just recently a 480gb one for my games Śnieżka#3486: welp lets hope its the ram problem Bisexual Billy#9476: I'm thinking it's more likely the ram. but it could be the SSD in theory too. Śnieżka#3486: Aight
Śnieżka#3486: Imma go check ram settings rn MythologicalZ#3752: @read bio/description 650 read bio/description#8459: Guys, is this exact same card is still worth it? I found it for a low price. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=As1U_2urxJA read bio/description#8459: oh read bio/description#8459: @MythologicalZ How much performance difference? The r7 is much cheaper Śnieżka#3486: DRAM timings are 11/11/11/28 2T Śnieżka#3486: And it's on auto voltage Śnieżka#3486: Apparently 1.654v read bio/description#8459: tf? Bisexual Billy#9476: Yep! that's what it is. Śnieżka#3486: According to BIOS Bisexual Billy#9476: turn that all the way down to 1.5v read bio/description#8459: Pretty sure DDR3 is 1,5V max Bisexual Billy#9476: ^^^ MythologicalZ#3752: What clocks
MythologicalZ#3752: 1.5 is like 1600 tier Śnieżka#3486: 1600mhz and 11/11/11/28 2T MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah no, turn that down MythologicalZ#3752: Probably a mess because mixed modules Śnieżka#3486: To what settings? Bisexual Billy#9476: Change the voltage to 1.5v from auto. MythologicalZ#3752: Leave the timings and clocks alone, change it to 1.5v Bisexual Billy#9476: that should fix things. Śnieżka#3486: That's done Śnieżka#3486: Ok so just voltage? Bisexual Billy#9476: yep. Bisexual Billy#9476: worry about overclocking later. Śnieżka#3486: Aight MythologicalZ#3752: @read bio/description what prices Śnieżka#3486: I mean idc about oc'ing the ram
Śnieżka#3486: Nope read bio/description#8459: 65 PLN for the R7 250, 100 PLN for the GTX 650 (tryin to talk down the guy tho) Śnieżka#3486: Still have the same problem MythologicalZ#3752: Likely the drive then Śnieżka#3486: Fuq MythologicalZ#3752: Try a fresh install and see what happens Śnieżka#3486: Again? Śnieżka#3486: After just 2 days? read bio/description#8459: @MythologicalZ why do you think the gtx 650 is better? MythologicalZ#3752: Because it's a slightly slower 7770 and a 250 is slower than both afaik read bio/description#8459: from what i've heard the hd 7770 destroys the 650 MythologicalZ#3752: Depends on the game, Kepler has really shitty drivers MythologicalZ#3752: Since the 7770 is GCN it still has okish support read bio/description#8459: Really? thought the kepler ones were good Bisexual Billy#9476: The HD 7770 is a lot better than the 650 but the 650 is a lot better than the R7 250
MythologicalZ#3752: Kepler has been lacking optimisations for years now read bio/description#8459: @MythologicalZ sounds like terascale lol MythologicalZ#3752: In a way read bio/description#8459: What GPUs are similiar to the GTX 650 and HD 7770? 1x6pin connector max, so no fermi cards. MythologicalZ#3752: 7790, 250x, no real Nvidia equivalent that I can think of read bio/description#8459: Damn, the cheapest 250x on OLX is 100 PLN read bio/description#8459: 7790 is also expensive. MythologicalZ#3752: :crome: Bisexual Billy#9476: r7 260x/7790 or the R7 250x = 7770 so it's not too bad. read bio/description#8459: Found a HD 7790 for 110 PLN, and an HD 7770 for 110 PLN, I pmed the other dude about the first one, maybe he'll lower the price Bisexual Billy#9476: I'd go with the 7790 easily. it even outperforms the GTX 750-ti in some cases. Charlie Foxtrot#9831: @MythologicalZ GT 740? MythologicalZ#3752: Dunno,maybe read bio/description#8459: Im considering not getting the GPU for now and maybe saving up.
read bio/description#8459: Found this r7 260... but just look at that pic. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701441037285195856/unknown.png read bio/description#8459: doesnt seem legit in the slightest MythologicalZ#3752: Just looks a shit photo to me MythologicalZ#3752: Ask for more pics if necessary read bio/description#8459: Also on OLX you can put ur name... he literally just put "Osoba" which literally means Person MythologicalZ#3752: :crome: read bio/description#8459: It looks to me like he stole the pic read bio/description#8459: and didnt know how to save, so he made a screenshot Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Such a meme scammer LOL.

So here's the question: what's better for now? HD 2000 Integrated or the 8400GS (rev1)? @Tech Helper Budget#8265: 8400GS read bio/description#8459: Good to know, thanks! Jam#0384: 8400gs but preferably neither read bio/description#8459: Well yeah, but I gotta have something to show the screen stuff.

My uncle's has a 210 Jam#0384: 210 is better Budget#8265: Depends what rev Budget#8265: But yeah 210 tends to be better Jam#0384: It’s usually faster
read bio/description#8459: Idk if he would give it to me for some time Jam#0384: he’s not using the machine read bio/description#8459: All I remember is that it's the Gigabyte version Budget#8265: Performance diffrence isnt much usually read bio/description#8459: Well yeah but my uncle is my uncle lol Jam#0384: I mean I’d take any extra performance coming from an 8400 Jam#0384: And I know because I’ve used a similar card in my main system years ago read bio/description#8459: I just need to sell one more thing (got people interested so shouldn't take too long) and then I'll get the GPU. read bio/description#8459: Like an actual good one. Budget#8265: Try and OC if you can Jam#0384: I wouldn’t mega cheap out on PSU or GPU Jam#0384: I mean used yes for GPU read bio/description#8459: I know. I already have a good PSU so that won't be an issue. Jam#0384: but spending like $10 is going to be a waste of time read bio/description#8459: Yeah, that's why I'd rather just take the 8400gs instead of begging my uncle to borrow the 210
Jam#0384: Why does he care so much about the pc in his attic read bio/description#8459: tbh idk neither do i care. I won't have that 8400gs in there for long. read bio/description#8459: Not sure if it will be worth using the PC before getting the better GPU, cuz I mean, my laptop has an i5 480m that is probably comparable to the i3 2120 and a HD 6370m which destroys the 8400GS. read bio/description#8459: Actually no, the i3 is much better, it has 3,3 GHz speeds vs 2,67 GHz on the i5. Jam#0384: The i3 should be faster Jam#0384: Better IPC and higher clocks Jam#0384: And HyperThreading Jam#0384: Clock speed isn’t everything though Jam#0384: Athlon 64 @2.2GHz beats Pentium D at 3GHz Jam#0384: Crimge read bio/description#8459: I know, but the core design of these processors are similar, so I decided to compare the clocks. Jam#0384: Not really Budget#8265: Which gen? Jam#0384: First gen to second gen is a big jump Budget#8265: ^
Jam#0384: Not that similar Budget#8265: First gen is a completely diffrent archutecture Budget#8265: Its closer to C2D with integrated memory controlelr than it is a Sandy CPU Budget#8265: Sandy is where the leaps slow down a bit Jam#0384: Not worth jumping from Sandy to Ivy unless a good deal Jam#0384: It’s virtually the same with slightly slightly higher clocks Jam#0384: 2600K vs 3770K just get the cheaper one Jam#0384: Not that i recommend either, just get a non-K or similar Xeon if possible Budget#8265: 10% IPC increase to be fair Jam#0384: Yeah, but it’s not worth the premium they ask for the high end chips Jam#0384: Just get the Sandy ones unless the Ivy is cheaper read bio/description#8459: My board only supports sandy Jam#0384: Douby Jam#0384: H61 works on Ivy Jam#0384: I have mega doubt
Racey#8574: Give your board a Google to see if someone got it to support Ivy MythologicalZ#3752: A lot of OEMs don't have ivy and lock to sandy Alcyone#2233: yeah if its a dell or something they might have never released an ivy bios Alcyone#2233: Thats why the "grab an oem and pop in a gpu" is usually best if you plan on just leaving it alone Racey#8574: I've always wondered why people put overclockable chips in locked oem motherboards MythologicalZ#3752: Highest spec CPU it supports MythologicalZ#3752: Therefore best performance :epicgamer: Alcyone#2233: sometimes the K sku has better default clocks Alcyone#2233: usually so minor I wouldnt pay a premium, but if they are the same price, why not Jam#0384: yes read bio/description#8459: Hey, I was so focused on the front panel connectors that I forgot about other things. So it turns out the CPU Fan connector is actually 5 pins and not 4 like on the intel stock cooler I have. Could anyone tell me if this could work? This is for the OptiPlex 780 board and I got the 790. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701532014884421672/unknown.png read bio/description#8459: @Tech Helper TheGeekster#8508: I would honestly suggest giving up on using an OEM motherboard, and try and find a bundle of CPU & motherboard read bio/description#8459: @TheGeekster I already bought it. TheGeekster#8508: Adapter time it is then
read bio/description#8459: Shit. JustinXenyx#8854: Geek you really don't know his market, it really isn't as easy as it seems read bio/description#8459: How am I supposed to do this.. DarknessFalls229#2286: @read bio/description does the dell connector have a different size apart from the extra "pin" read bio/description#8459: no, but the layout is different as u can see up there DarknessFalls229#2286: well, if the diagram is correct you can take out the pins with a needle and put them back in in the order of the dell connector read bio/description#8459: Okay, it's a no go then. I guess I need to get a fan like this right: https://allegro.pl/oferta/chlodzenie-dell-390-790-990-cn-0dw014-cpu-1155-8831029245 DarknessFalls229#2286: i mean the pins of the fan connector DarknessFalls229#2286: it aint that hard DarknessFalls229#2286: just dont send 12v down the wrong line read bio/description#8459: Its a no go cuz its not my fan. read bio/description#8459: I was gonna borrow one for now. DarknessFalls229#2286: ah? read bio/description#8459: I'll just get that dell one. JustinXenyx#8854: try to get only the fan @read bio/description
JustinXenyx#8854: should be a hell of a lot cheaper and you can use a better heatsink read bio/description#8459: impossible. also that cooler is just 15 pln + shipping read bio/description#8459: damn, I'd rather payup than cancel the order of the mobo, I mean, it's still the best deal overall. TheGeekster#8508: The market of buying an OEM board thats non standard, and then trying to fit it into things it's not designed for, yeah I try to avoid it tbh, the amount of issues, adapters and weird things you have to do, often go over the cost of buying a standardised motherboard 🤔 TheGeekster#8508: I've built plenty of optiplex hybrid monsters, but i always keep it with the original case, and use a power supply adapter for the mobo, other than that, aye, i avoid that shit like the plague read bio/description#8459: power supply adapter? read bio/description#8459: @TheGeekster these optiplexes were sure old right? read bio/description#8459: cuz the one I have is normal 24+4pin. read bio/description#8459: i mean, I will have. TheGeekster#8508: It massively varies depending on which optiplex, there's old and modern ones that use like 8/12 pin motherboard connectors but you should be fine with your particular one read bio/description#8459: yeah, **hopefully** read bio/description#8459: **FUCK** read bio/description#8459: @TheGeekster i have an issue with the usb connector, glad i found it now TheGeekster#8508: ...what's the issue? read bio/description#8459: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701536954420035604/unknown.png

TheGeekster#8508: i would honestly not bother with connecting it for now, get the rest of the system running, THEN worry about that, it's an incredibly old SD card reader and would be easier to replace with a standard USB SD card reader JustinXenyx#8854: lol i found that exact same card reader + usb thingie while cleaning up, probably game from my old Fujitsu Siemens 775 PC lmao TheGeekster#8508: oh fuck 😂 dell parts in a fujitsu mobo Jam#0384: I have one that Im putting in my S478 ultra shit 1c gamer pc read bio/description#8459: this is a fujitsu siemens scaleo l lol Jam#0384: 3.6GHz of power read bio/description#8459: i picked it cuz its small and has that connector read bio/description#8459: I mean I found it read bio/description#8459: e.e what the actual fuck read bio/description#8459: @TheGeekster There's the mobo that was originally in there, either I'm blind or idk, I can't see it there. read bio/description#8459: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701540272533667871/775-MSI-MS-7293-V2-0-100-OK-2oV.png read bio/description#8459: there no such 12 pin connector here TheGeekster#8508: it's a standard USB connector with 2 extra pins on each side, just because fujitsu are fucking awkward, if you look at the black USB ports on the bottom, there is enough room on each side for the extra blank pins to not touch anything TheGeekster#8508: it's legit just OEM being OEM read bio/description#8459: so it should work just fine?
TheGeekster#8508: if the USB connector fits, yes TheGeekster#8508: *in theory* BrownTown#4082: but oem be crazy BrownTown#4082: so could just not at all Racey#8574: OEM stinky BrownTown#4082: ^ Racey#8574: too many stinky stuff TheGeekster#8508: Pinned a message. BrownTown#4082: best explanation ^ read bio/description#8459: i might use a different case in the end lol read bio/description#8459: well idk for now, glad its not mobo's issue. read bio/description#8459: my bro showed me how to switch pins TheGeekster#8508: i appreciate the nasty case, it's a classic, but yeah not easy read bio/description#8459: my bro shown me how to move the pins, but a price of an intel stock 1155 cooler is the same as the dell cooler, so i guess its not worth the hassle RiIey#0001: I'm experiencing frequent random crashes on google chrome out of nowhere. Ive crashed 4 times this morning and multiple tabs crash as well. what could be the cause
Jam#0384: The easy solution is to restart pc or remove all version of chrome running in task manager Xbox 360 1953#2640: how do i check if my hdd is dying or not Jam#0384: is it dying Xbox 360 1953#2640: i dunno Xbox 360 1953#2640: its always loud but always has been CaptainFlanger#2563: Check CrystalDiskInfo.

Budget#8265: @Deleted User Eyo Deleted User#0000: give me sec, getting screenshot for you Budget#8265: Alrighty 👍 Muse#0557: Do we know what country he is from Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/701986182992625764/Specs.PNG Budget#8265: America given the $ Deleted User#0000: United States, Oregon. Budget#8265: Oh lord right Budget#8265: So honest advice, this system is beyond saving Budget#8265: It'd end up on a budget channel like mine for retro use Budget#8265: Right, so dont throw any more money at it Budget#8265: Your BEST bet for performance is to: Budget#8265: LGA1155 Motherboard - $30 Core i5 2500 - $15 Generic LGA1155 Cooler - $5
350W FSP PSU - $10 Generic Case - Literally anything you can find RAM (DDR3) Your system may be using it just get 8GB Minimum Then blow the rest on a GPU like an RX470 or GTX1050 Budget#8265: That will get you awesome performance on the cheap 👍 Budget#8265: No matter what you buy right now your system will hold you back so much that youll be wasting money Deleted User#0000: I already have a Core i3 2130 with heatsink Budget#8265: Then you're already 1 step ahead Deleted User#0000: And then I already have a case Budget#8265: Looks like you already know which route to go down then Deleted User#0000: I need a Power Supply Unit Muse#0557: Fsp or Delta JustinXenyx#8854: honest opinion, that Athlon system is doomed. Realistically there is NO point in upgrading it, as AM3 parts are expensive as fuck and not worth it Budget#8265: ^ Budget#8265: Justin is with us then
Deleted User#0000: I found the max processor upgrade for 30$ @JustinXenyx JustinXenyx#8854: Salvaging RAM and HDD will get you out of the park to some extent, but even then you've got a lot of stuff to do Budget#8265: Yeah the max CPU is probably worse in general use than the i3 Budget#8265: As dire single core and aincient architecture JustinXenyx#8854: To be quite fair, you can basically toss out the i3 aswell Budget#8265: The i3 would tide him over for a while imo Jam#0384: Just keep to test the motherboard JustinXenyx#8854: Dual cores are long dead and you shouldn't be using one Budget#8265: So he can save for an i7 HappySlappyFace#0441: @JustinXenyx Realtek RTS5733DMQ ssd controller, good or na ADATA SU750 Deleted User#0000: I'm basically on life support, I'm surviving on this Athlon system Budget#8265: @JustinXenyx Far from true, i set up an i5 3570T system the other day and its awesome Hypre Threading man Budget#8265: Its insanely good Budget#8265: Like for £10
Jam#0384: That Athlon system is beyond salvation Budget#8265: ^ JustinXenyx#8854: Far from true? Have you seen most video games from 2018 onwards? :Hahahahaha: Budget#8265: yeah look at the 1155 parts list i gave above JustinXenyx#8854: It's not bad for desktop use but you will shit yourself in gaming Budget#8265: @JustinXenyx It did run a quick PUBG and 3D Mark Test, but yeah its not like its a bad CPU Budget#8265: Runs DOOM well Muse#0557: How big of a difference is there between a 3570t and 2400 Deleted User#0000: Isn't dangerous cheeping out on the PSU? Budget#8265: BIG Budget#8265: i5 is 2c/4t Budget#8265: @Deleted User yeah but i never said cheap out Budget#8265: I said FSP or Delta Muse#0557: I meant performance JustinXenyx#8854: Cheaping out on a PSU is basically suicide @Deleted User
Budget#8265: ^ Jam#0384: FSP or Delta is fine JustinXenyx#8854: If the PSU goes your system likely goes aswell Deleted User#0000: 35$ seems pretty cheep Budget#8265: Hardly Jam#0384: It's called smart budgeting Budget#8265: PSU is all about brand and model Budget#8265: Wattage means very little if the brand isnt reputable Jam#0384: Small name + good quality = low price Deleted User#0000: So I should go for delta power supplys? Muse#0557: FSPs and Deltas and cheap because they are pulled from oems that are bought it bulk, they are high quality and last a long time Budget#8265: Delta and FSP make great PSUs Budget#8265: and are always used in servers and oem systems Deleted User#0000: Alright, so I already have the core i3, the case, and the heatsink, as well a hdd and ram, I just need the motherboard. JustinXenyx#8854: To be quite fair, i think you should save up and then go out to build a proper PC
Budget#8265: I think 1155 will tide him over for a while Budget#8265: Cause its gonna cost sub $100 Jam#0384: with 4 cores Budget#8265: and a huge upgrade Jam#0384: I'd grab an i5 for cheap if possible Deleted User#0000: Justin, the only PC I have is that Athlon PC I just screenshotted @JustinXenyx Jam#0384: that i3 is usableish but far from ideal Deleted User#0000: So, I'm not waiting any longer than I need too Budget#8265: and he has no real income JustinXenyx#8854: I wasn't saying not to build a cheapo 1155 PC to get him out of the gate Jam#0384: Why does it matter though? Do you have a reason why you need a PC every day regardless Jam#0384: What are you doing that you can't do on a phone Jam#0384: or tablet or whatever JustinXenyx#8854: But what i meant is after that maybe save up money and then go out and build a "proper" PC Budget#8265: Oh yeah i agree
Budget#8265: Like @Deleted User Build this 1155 system and then save for like Ryzen Budget#8265: 👍 Budget#8265: We all agree Jam#0384: yes Muse#0557: Ye Deleted User#0000: Alright though there is something that is bugging me, you know how certain motherboard bios revisions won't allow newer processors to be used? @Budget Budget#8265: Yeah so i said Core i5 2500 max Budget#8265: Cause itll work on like all boards ever Budget#8265: and is very cheap JustinXenyx#8854: Upgrading 1155 to an i7 barely makes sense now, the i3 surely will perform better and if he already has it that's saved money right there. If the i3 can serve him well for what he wants to do, saving up for a "proper" PC isn't going to be hard at all Deleted User#0000: And you don't know what bios revision the motherboard is goig to ship with and you would need to use the older processors to make it support it Deleted User#0000: And to update it Budget#8265: Core i5 2500 is like an early Sandy CPU itll work on everything Muse#0557: I thought they were sticking with the i3 for now Budget#8265: Same with Core i3 you have
Budget#8265: Its a 2100 series Budget#8265: Itll work on 99% of boards you buy Deleted User#0000: I'm talking about Ryzen Budget#8265: Also 1155 is gonan be used chances are someone will have updated the BIOS Muse#0557: Oh Budget#8265: Ryzen boards are usually shipped with Updated BIOS straight from the manufacturer Budget#8265: I know ASUS has this in their website stuff along with Asrock, and MSI JustinXenyx#8854: Oh and you can get bios flashing kits aswell from AMD Budget#8265: ^ JustinXenyx#8854: they still do those Muse#0557: Maybe specify its ryzen if we haven't mentioned it in a while Muse#0557: Rip Budget#8265: AMD will literally ship you a CPU to flash a BIOS Muse#0557: Tomorrow Muse#0557: When I'm functional
Muse#0557: Can I get some help with a bitch of a 1155 board Deleted User#0000: So a Delta or FSP 300 watt ATX power supply? Budget#8265: 350Watt ideally Budget#8265: They sell for £7 here Budget#8265: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PSU-350W-FSP-GROUP-FSP350-50GMN-POWER-SUPPLY-COMPUTER-PC-ATX-PSU/333576748055?hash=item4daab93c17:g:fasAAOSwVhxemF~S Deleted User#0000: AlliExpress is great for prices **but they don't ship to the bloody US** Budget#8265: They should do Deleted User#0000: I checked Deleted User#0000: It says right on the page Jam#0384: yes they do Muse#0557: I'd assume shipping costs would outweigh the savings Jam#0384: lmao Jam#0384: Maybe not right now Budget#8265: But the US has such a good market that you dont need to order from them Jam#0384: but I've literally bought from Aliexpress and im in US

Deleted User#0000: Its a 500 watt Budget#8265: what model Budget#8265: Please dont be VS or CX Green JustinXenyx#8854: Molex to 6 Pin really isn't ideal, but it's not like it's a safety hazard either Budget#8265: *CX Green is like passable tho* Budget#8265: Dual Molex to 6 pin aswell @JustinXenyx So like best case scenario
Deleted User#0000: RS-500-PCAR-D3 Budget#8265: 350W with Dual Molex -> 6 Pin still running a Core i3 3220 and GTX465 fine Budget#8265: Thats Cooler Master Budget#8265: Seems to be an alright one from like 10 Years ago Budget#8265: Itll do Deleted User#0000: Is it delta? JustinXenyx#8854: that's a jikes from me chief Budget#8265: It isnt a delta its a Cooler Master JustinXenyx#8854: 10 yr old PSU that wasn't even great at the time isn't what i'd call ideal JustinXenyx#8854: most ppl using molex to 6 pins are using them with lower wattage cards either way which means that single 12v wire won't need to pass a lot of current Budget#8265: Its alright for like 350->400W according to tests Budget#8265: but yeah not a great PSU Deleted User#0000: Is it going to nuke my PC if its strained?

Can deliver 500W uncomfortably. Best suited to 300->400W Budget#8265: Factor in aging caps, and all that jazz id say good for 350W max Budget#8265: Comfortably Muse#0557: I used it with a 960
Muse#0557: I5 3470 Muse#0557: Had no issues JustinXenyx#8854: i'd say more like 250-300w comfortably JustinXenyx#8854: It's a lower end PSU from 2009, those don't age that well Deleted User#0000: It says on the PSU its self 360 Watts max Budget#8265: wot Muse#0557: Only running at half watts?

TheGeekster#8508: I mean... you aren't gonna get *much* out of either of them tbh, but the FX6350 will be better Budget#8265: Does the A10 even have L3 Cache? JokerJonno#0662: So basically put up with the constant high fan speed and heat? Roll on payday when I can get me a Ryzen setup.... Budget#8265: Yeah the A10 has no L3 Cache at all Budget#8265: The only thing the A10 does have is better GPU Drivers i believe Yannikau#9606: The FX doesn´t have any kind of GPU as far as I know JokerJonno#0662: Yeah it does, a basic one tho.. JokerJonno#0662: Anyone wanna trade the A10, FX and three supporting motherboards for a basic Ryzen3 and board? 😂 TheGeekster#8508: 😩 save up man, put up with it, save up, get ryzen, least it works for now JustinXenyx#8854: The FX wipes the floor with the A10, but both aren't ideal JokerJonno#0662: > The FX wipes the floor with the A10, but both aren't ideal @JustinXenyx you’re tellin me! The FX sits between 70-90 under moderate load, and the A10 isn’t that great of a gaming chip JokerJonno#0662: I suppose my GPU doesn’t help in that sense either but still.. TheFifthAce#4128: @JokerJonno sell both and buy sandy bridge or ryzen TheFifthAce#4128: why are you keeping either of them
TheFifthAce#4128: just sell them TheFifthAce#4128: sandy is cheap as fuck JokerJonno#0662: I used to have an i7-4770K and MSI gaming board, but the power supply went bang and took them both out... had to sink back to the FX just so I had a pc to use!

Deleted User#0000: Xeon X3450 and GTX 1050 LP Deleted User#0000: Does the GTX 1050 Low Profile have NVENC? JustinXenyx#8854: again, why bother with a low profile card?

Deleted User#0000: I do have 6pin Xbox 360 1953#2640: most dont JustinXenyx#8854: You could get a 1650 instead of a 1050 LP and still have no PSU issues Xbox 360 1953#2640: well either way most 1050s don't need one Deleted User#0000: Yeah I was thinking about a 1650 too JustinXenyx#8854: You could probably even get a 4/570 used for cheap and use that Xbox 360 1953#2640: I ran a 1050 off of a 275w dell psu JustinXenyx#8854: a half-decent 350W PSU should be able to run a X3440 (and the other quad cores with 8 threads) with a 4/570 without much trouble Deleted User#0000: Ok I searched the specs of the 1650 and it is much better Deleted User#0000: And doesn't require any power connectors Budget#8265: 1650 Super has new NVENC Budget#8265: and would be your go to if you wanted good uality A/V as a priority Exomilav#5434: would a DVI splitter work with 2 PCs? aslong as one is off while the other is on?

For example i can see that the Core i5 2500 matches and FX8320 with only half the cores. This would indicate that it is a much better CPU. This only uses non OC results, so only stock boost clocks are shown in the results. So for K Series CPUs please look at the advanced search i have linked down below. It is however a good indicator of stock overall performance The pricing can be ignored as i am fairly sure it utilized preset MSRP, however i find this to be an awesome test 👍

Jam#0384: :epicgamer: JustinXenyx#8854: Like in this case it isn't "every bit helps" but more rather "don't bother folding with shit hw" thatubuntuguy#5914: so would my hardware count as shit Jam#0384: Every bit helps if your pc is good JustinXenyx#8854: > so would my hardware count as shit @thatubuntuguy Not really Jam#0384: My pc is low end thatubuntuguy#5914: Alr should I join it then Jam#0384: Ryzen 7 3700X is only good for 720p esports Jam#0384: Not enough cock speed thatubuntuguy#5914: bc I don't want to negatively impact the team thatubuntuguy#5914: so imma get your approval first Jam#0384: GTX 1080- HAS gddr5x Jam#0384: Lol Jam#0384: Gddr6 is the new thing

TheGeekster#8508: Folding is best on the GPU, it can run a lot more complex processes and simulations TheGeekster#8508: We have a team set up for folding, which basically just counts all of our points into a group, that's about it, the actual work is the same for everyone, but yeah as justin said, please don't try folding on anything particularly weak, ryzen 1700 using 80% can take about 5 hours to run one unit of work (give or take) Yannikau#9606: Could ir be possible that it gives work depending on what CPU you have? My Ryzen 5 2500U took around the same time and that one is obviously a lot weaker.... VanGuard#4548: Can you run a 2700X without a Gpu? TheGeekster#8508: nope, it has no integrated gpu and requires a dedicated gpu thatubuntuguy#5914: @TheGeekster oh right how do i make it use my gpu? thatubuntuguy#5914: bc rn its using the i5 so if it runs faster on a gpu i can certainly do that thatubuntuguy#5914: nvm i found the option
thatubuntuguy#5914: its not detecting my gpu TheGeekster#8508: ah might not support it potentially Yannikau#9606: Also you rarely get any CPU workloads :/ thatubuntuguy#5914: maybe its because i'm doing the corona project thatubuntuguy#5914: it says the corona projects are cpu projects thatubuntuguy#5914: my cpu is pegged at 100% Yannikau#9606: No, those can also be GPU afaik thatubuntuguy#5914: oh right thatubuntuguy#5914: because its not picking up my rx 470 Yannikau#9606: You just barely get any workunits TheGeekster#8508: ah it might be a cuda only project TheGeekster#8508: https://foldingathome.org/support/faq/installation-guides/linux/requirements/ TheGeekster#8508: huh should support the RX470 🤔 Yannikau#9606: Nah I already ran it on an RX 560X and Vega 8 thatubuntuguy#5914: uh i broke it

TheGeekster#8508: it's not standard utilisation, it's compute, not 3D, change the graphs in task manager to compute and it should show you what's happening thatubuntuguy#5914: ooh right i see thatubuntuguy#5914: yeah it shows like 80-90% in task manager thatubuntuguy#5914: @TheGeekster why is it not at 100%? thatubuntuguy#5914: even in compute its sitting at about 80-85%

The Windows XP and Vista drivers can play the first version of Minecraft through 1.13.2, but not any higher. The Windows 7 driver can play the first version through 1.7.2, then it can play 1.11.2 through 1.13.2, and then it can play 1.15 and above.
I play on both a 1.7.10 server and a 1.15.2 server and I'm a little tired of switching OS just to play on the other server. I haven't tested the Windows 2000 driver. Caleb - XPuser#7247: And before you say that the performance will be terrible, it isn't, I can get a solid 20 fps on lowest settings with 1.15.2 (resolution at 320 x 200). Caleb - XPuser#7247: And on 1.7.10 I can get a steady 40 fps at what I'd consider medium settings. Charlie Foxtrot#9831: ```performance will be terrible``` Charlie Foxtrot#9831: ```solid 20 fps on lowest settings with 1.15.2 (resolution at 320 x 200)``` Charlie Foxtrot#9831: I am curious tho, have you tried GMABooster? Lady Mipha#0611: also the gma3100 doesn’t actually have proper support for the opengl minecraft requires JustinXenyx#8854: > And before you say that the performance will be terrible, it isn't, I can get a solid 20 fps on lowest settings with 1.15.2 (resolution at 320 x 200). 20fps is fucking horrid in my eyes, but if you want to put up with it who am i to judge? JustinXenyx#8854: Which OS are you using? Like legit Windows XP or? @Caleb - XPuser JustinXenyx#8854: Because if you're using WinXP as your main OS i could imagine there being compatibility issues with newer versions of Minecraft TheFifthAce#4128: do you like TheFifthAce#4128: want a better pc Caleb - XPuser#7247: I'm on Windows 10.
Racey#8574: Minecraft requires OpenGL 2.1 and the GMA X3100 only officially supported 1.5 Racey#8574: Lol Caleb - XPuser#7247: Do you need a photo of the latest version running on it? Racey#8574: I had a laptop that used an X3100 Caleb - XPuser#7247: Give me a few minutes to get Minecraft started, I'll send a screenshot of it with the F3 menu open. Racey#8574: Ran like more shit than I've ever seen lmao Racey#8574: Also 200p Racey#8574: My guy are you a god or something lmfao I can't see shit Caleb - XPuser#7247: Nah, I just put up with low resolutions. Caleb - XPuser#7247: Is this enough proof that 1.15.2 works on the GMA X3100? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/703144403874742342/unknown.png Caleb - XPuser#7247: Ignore the fact that the fps is as low as it is. Caleb - XPuser#7247: Anyways, does anybody know of a modded GMA X3100 driver that works on Windows 10 64 bit? Caleb - XPuser#7247: I'd really like to get both 1.7.10 and 1.15.2 working on this laptop. Racey#8574: Well given the memes Minecraft definitely can't run on everything and it's gotten more demanding since it's release Racey#8574: The GMA X3100 is really old and isn't powerful enough to run games even like Minecraft at playable framerates at remotely high resolutions lmao
Caleb - XPuser#7247: I consider the 15 fps that it normally runs at playable. Racey#8574: Try a 4x4 texture pack, use optifine and set everything to their performance options and use like 400p Caleb - XPuser#7247: I already use optifine. Racey#8574: 4x4 texture pack Racey#8574: Make everything single colour Caleb - XPuser#7247: I don't mind the poor performance, I just want 1.7.10 and 1.15.2 to work on the same OS. Caleb - XPuser#7247: 1.7.10 won't start at all with the Windows 7 driver but 1.15.2 will, 1.7.10 will start with the Windows Vista driver but 1.15.2 won't. Caleb - XPuser#7247: I don't have a dual boot on this hdd so every time I wanna play on a different server I have to swap hard drives. TheGeekster#8508: That's probably using software opengl, which is why it's fucking terrible TheGeekster#8508: I would seriously suggest saving up for either a basic gpu, or a replacement pc Lady Mipha#0611: ^^^ JustinXenyx#8854: if my assumption is correct that's just a laptop JustinXenyx#8854: so upgrades aren't really going to be a thing except like RAM but i think he already did that JustinXenyx#8854: Especially when he says that his "D630" has a T7250, which is the machine he is using and D630 sounds suspiciously like a dell laptop TheGeekster#8508: Ah... new computer it is 😩
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: D630 is indeed a Dell.

@TheGeekster pretty much Deleted User#0000: altough, I think it ran at 60fps most of the time, it just looked like crap and you could barely see a damn thing Deleted User#0000: it was at the same level of the 3ds version in the early days Caleb - XPuser#7247: I run it at 320 x 200 with everything else on lowest settings and rarely hit 30 fps. JustinXenyx#8854: I mean if you can struggle through that then that's on you. Coming back to the actual issue, couldn't you just force Win7 drivers on the Windows 10 install? JustinXenyx#8854: Windows is pretty surprising when it comes to driver compatibility, if the 7 driver is the one with the best support why not just install it directly? JustinXenyx#8854: Modded drivers are going to be instable or might plainly refuse to work with Win10 so i'd save yourself the pain MarcosCodas#6375: Hey, guys. Just wanted to share some unexpected surprises from my trip to "no Google and no Facebook code in my OS or apps" land. I've installed /e/, a de-Googled Android fork, and no proprietary apps from Google or Facebook. While it's true that my on-screen time has gone down, I've never, ever gone this long without charging any smartphone. I'm also using Bluetooth constantly (smartwatch and headphones). I think it's a very impressive showing, and quite telling of just how much resources all the background telemetry hog up on our phones. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/703252929280475166/photo_2020-04-24_10-04-48.jpg Budget#8265: Pinned a message. Budget#8265: Genuinely intresting ^ MarcosCodas#6375: Cheers, bud! I'm making content related to privacy, telemetry, tracking, open source, etc. But it's all in Spanish. Might share anyway later. It really is quite amazing MarcosCodas#6375: The findings are amazing, I meant to say. My content is so-so, hahaha MarcosCodas#6375: By the way, this isn't some amazing top-of-the-line phone. It's a $170 Xiaomi Redmi Note 7. MarcosCodas#6375: Snapdragon 660, 4GB RAM tdp2612#3835: are you still able to reinstall select google/facebook stuff back on?
MarcosCodas#6375: Yep tdp2612#3835: like you could do with a kindle, putting play services back on and then having all your google stuff available MarcosCodas#6375: /e/ provides an alternatives to Google Services Framework called MicroG, which allows you to run all apps that depend on it, but without proprietary Google code Currency Converter Bot#4703: Command not recognized... MarcosCodas#6375: However, if you want to, you can add stuff back on MarcosCodas#6375: Kinda defeats the purpose, I'd say, but you can tdp2612#3835: and it doesnt do anything funky with gps or anything MarcosCodas#6375: No, this is a fork of LineageOS, so it uses most base code from that and AOSP MarcosCodas#6375: Just removes the proprietary stuff and telemetry MarcosCodas#6375: I haven't noticed anything that doesn't work MarcosCodas#6375: It has to be said that, like any incursion into flashing a custom ROM, there is quite a bit of tech know-how involved, particularly if you want to do it on a device that isn't officially supported, like mine. I had to create my own repos with the device, vendor and kernel code for my phone, and then compile the build and flash it. But if you have a device that is officially supported, it's as easy as just flashing any other ROM JustinXenyx#8854: i mean, while i do find that somewhat interesting i personally couldn't really give less of a damn for performance reasons JustinXenyx#8854: My LG G6 with a battery that has been used for 16 months lasts like a solid 7 days given that i do use my phone rather rarily MarcosCodas#6375: Oh, I didn't do this for performance reasons. I did this for privacy reasons. I work in IT, and more and more, Google, Apple, Facebook and Microsoft are using customer data to drive advertising business (as well as some other less savory stuff) MarcosCodas#6375: I'm moving all of my customers onto open source platforms, moving my personal work flow to open source as well
MarcosCodas#6375: I no longer offer services oriented toward Facebook platforms (like social media management) MarcosCodas#6375: I just thought it was a nice little bonus, that aside from the fact that I'm not giving my data over to be used to manipulate politics and sell me crap I don't need, I'm also getting more usability out of my battery wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm so glad steam has progressed to allow me to play multiplayer on a singleplayer game :Hahahahaha: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/703268031895306351/unknown.png wiryfuture🦀#1706: how does this remote play together thing work wiryfuture🦀#1706: does steam create a virtual input or something Deleted User#0000: Anyone here knows how to Port Forward on WinBox? Deleted User#0000: I dont really know how to work with this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/703272673182089358/unknown.png Caleb - XPuser#7247: @JustinXenyx I already use the Win7 driver on Win10, the problem is it doesn't work with Minecraft 1.7.10 and I need to play on 1.7.10 and 1.15.2. Caleb - XPuser#7247: However, there is a bigger problem now. Caleb - XPuser#7247: The CPU has underclocked itself to 600MHz, down from 2GHz. Caleb - XPuser#7247: The voltage is down to 0.85 volts, down from 1.075 at minimum and 1.75 at maximum. Caleb - XPuser#7247: Sorry, meant 1.175 at maximum. Caleb - XPuser#7247: Help? Caleb - XPuser#7247: Turns out that the power brick causes this. Odd. Sentient Potato#6003: Guess you could say it was
Sentient Potato#6003: *bricked* VanGuard#4548: How do I oc a 9400F I'm at my cousin's house and he wants it to 3.1 not 2.9 Xbox 360 1953#2640: Isn't that a locked chip tdp2612#3835: i think you need a nice board and you can force them to run in boost mode, but thats it VanGuard#4548: He has a Tuf Z390 Jam#0384: The cpu is still locked Jam#0384: Doesn’t matter what board he has JustinXenyx#8854: 9400F is locked, you can't OC it @VanGuard JustinXenyx#8854: I dunno if you know this, but with Intel chips you need a K part to overclock JustinXenyx#8854: Ryzen basically threw that idea out and made all of the Ryzen chips overclockable so i can get why people would think Intel has done something similar Racey#8574: Get a 9350K Alcyone#2233: it should be boosting to 3.9ghz all core on its own Alcyone#2233: if theres no or light load it will drop to base clocks or below BeepBeepZangoose#4712: I have an old hp Compaq 6200 (i3, 6g Ram) that has massive performance issues, would cleaning it up and putting a newer graphics card help much or is something that old not gonna be too salvageable? BeepBeepZangoose#4712: I was thinking a 1050ti low profile but suggestions are appreciated
Jam#0384: What i3 Lady Mipha#0611: ^^ Lady Mipha#0611: @BeepBeepZangoose Jam#0384: or at the very least what generation BeepBeepZangoose#4712: Intel 2120 Jam#0384: Get an i5-2400 it’s like $20 and will work miles better Jam#0384: And then the 1050ti BeepBeepZangoose#4712: How would I do that Jam#0384: What do you mean BeepBeepZangoose#4712: I'm bad at computers sorry BeepBeepZangoose#4712: Like do I just replace that part or is that a whole new computer Jam#0384: Replace the part Jam#0384: You will also need thermal compound but it’s also like $4 Jam#0384: the i5 has twice the cores of that i3 for $20 BeepBeepZangoose#4712: Would that be compatible with everything?
Jam#0384: Yes BeepBeepZangoose#4712: I'll look into it thanks Jam#0384: It’s the same socket and it’s nothing extravagant Jam#0384: I will mention though Jam#0384: Don’t expect miracles. It’s a platform from 2011 BeepBeepZangoose#4712: Don't worry I'm not BeepBeepZangoose#4712: I'm just expecting a bit more usability BeepBeepZangoose#4712: It's $125 on Newegg for some reason lole Jam#0384: Don’t buy it new Jam#0384: Buy it on eBay Jam#0384: Don’t buy anything from many years ago new Jam#0384: Terrible value BeepBeepZangoose#4712: Good point Racey#8574: also Racey#8574: **don't touch the socket pins**
