Deleted User#0000: that person also seems to have about 5 listings for the exact same ram with the exact same picture (he might own it but I don't think any person just has 20 of the same sticks just in their house)
MarcosCodas#6375: Hey guys.... need some help/advice. Here in Paraguay, you can build a great Ryzen system with new parts and it won't sell, but if you build an old Intel system with former Optiplex parts, it flies off.
I need to get a mobo/cpu/ram combo for around $40 or so, hopefully 4th gen i5 or newer, 8gb RAM, but something that will take standard PSUs. Any ideas? I haven't built one of these in ages
MarcosCodas#6375: I'm going to buy them off US eBay, and import them
MarcosCodas#6375: No used parts here at all
tdp2612#3835: go Dell
tdp2612#3835: the used oem dell stuff is really standard
MarcosCodas#6375: Cheers
tdp2612#3835: so normal mounting holes, normal 24 pin, normal 4 pin cpu
MarcosCodas#6375: I'll look for potential good stuff on eBay and post listing heres
MarcosCodas#6375: listings here*
MarcosCodas#6375: So I don't fuck up
MarcosCodas#6375: Damn, no deals that I can find whatsoever
MarcosCodas#6375: Haha |
JustinXenyx#8854: COVID really has been fucking with the hardware market
JustinXenyx#8854: We can be lucky prices for new items really didn't go up

tdp2612#3835: thats gonne go for a lot more than 35
tdp2612#3835: also hes in america
MythologicalZ#3752: weird bundle
Deleted User#0000: Yeah I know but
tdp2612#3835: like if that goes for under 80 that would be a deal
tdp2612#3835: and ye weird combo for such a shit gpu
MythologicalZ#3752: also, getting haswell for 40 is not gonna happen
tdp2612#3835: and non k cpu
MythologicalZ#3752: sandy sure
MythologicalZ#3752: but not haswell
tdp2612#3835: ill stick a bid on that anyway thnks
tdp2612#3835: yeah thats 50 already then |
Deleted User#0000: Yeah I know it's not going to go for 40 but still worth checking how the auction goes
Deleted User#0000: What I do is I set myself a budget that I want to spend on something then find about 5 auctions and check them regularly. I managed to get a gtx 780 for 30 pounds that way (also a bit of luck though)
MarcosCodas#6375: Yeah, it's always a bit of luck involved
MarcosCodas#6375: Good deals aren't easy to come by
MarcosCodas#6375: Otherwise we'd all be swimming in money, hehe
MarcosCodas#6375: But I really appreciate all your help and advice
MarcosCodas#6375: Doesn't have to be haswell, mind
MarcosCodas#6375: But newer than sandy would be good
MarcosCodas#6375: high end sandy or ivy...? 4 physical cores
Lumaterian#3557: I do love my physical cores
Lumaterian#3557: not like those theoretical cores on FX lol
MarcosCodas#6375: Indeed
MarcosCodas#6375: Or logical threads (though HT is good, but I need 4c/4t at least)
Clode#2428: When i boot windows 7 the file explorer crashes is there any way to fix it?
Lumaterian#3557: personally I can't use less than like |
Lumaterian#3557: a 2600K
Lumaterian#3557: got 4 screens with stuff going on
Lumaterian#3557: 4T hasn't been able to handle it
Lumaterian#3557: maybe something like
Lumaterian#3557: 7600K could
Lumaterian#3557: but I doubt it
MarcosCodas#6375: I use an R5 1600 and RX580 myself. Single monitor, ultra wide
MarcosCodas#6375: It's not for me, this thing
MarcosCodas#6375: It's to flip for esports
MarcosCodas#6375: And low-end graphic design, video editing, et
Lumaterian#3557: this might surprise you, but I've got a 1600AF and Vega 56
Lumaterian#3557: I'd be using RX 570 but a 100$ custom-cooler v56 is not a deal I can pass up
MarcosCodas#6375: Indeed!
mi3night#2562: @Lumaterian Vega drivers are fine right ?
MarcosCodas#6375: Ended up getting an i5 2400 + Dell mobo (pretty decent, Optiplex 7010) for $49 shipped, and it is guaranteed to work from a business reseller. Not a craaazy deal by US standards, but considering I have to get it shipped to Paraguay, the extra piece of mind that they are guaranteed to work was worth the difference |
MarcosCodas#6375: Now, the GPU issue...
Muse#0557: That's a very good price for shipped to a developing country during a pandemic
MarcosCodas#6375: Gotta add $10 for the shipping to Paraguay from the US
MarcosCodas#6375: But still
MarcosCodas#6375: $60 is pretty good
MarcosCodas#6375: Already sold the full system, too
MarcosCodas#6375: So
MarcosCodas#6375: Just gotta wait and assemble the parts
MarcosCodas#6375: And buyer's ready
MarcosCodas#6375: Good times
Lumaterian#3557: ye drivers are great

the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ello |
Kwikxilver#6241: Ok so
Kwikxilver#6241: Howdy
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: try unplugging each fan alone
Kwikxilver#6241: HP xw6200
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: and see if the noise goes away when unplugging a specific fan
Kwikxilver#6241: It’s every fan. Every fan is going full speed all the time
Kwikxilver#6241: Which makes me think it’s a motherboard issue
Kwikxilver#6241: Video card as well as case fans, cpu fans
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: i dont know why the video card would do that , but your cpu could be overheating hence the fans ramping up , u mentioned you cleaned it but did you repaste
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: the cpu
Kwikxilver#6241: Yes I did repaste both cpus. Pea sized blob on each before I put the heat sink on
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: both ? its a dual socketed mobo
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ?
Kwikxilver#6241: Yeah there’s 2 xeons in there
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: how big is the case |
Kwikxilver#6241: Huge
Kwikxilver#6241: Easily ATX or larger
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: couldve been just a cooling issue but u said it was big so guess not
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: id check the mobo bios then
Kwikxilver#6241: Nah that’s what I thought at first. But after cleaning, checking everything the issue is the same
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: to see if there is fan rpm settings
Kwikxilver#6241: That’s a good idea
Kwikxilver#6241: Here’s the thing tho - hp has taken down all their mobo bios updates for my model
Kwikxilver#6241: I’ve found it elsewhere but when I try to run it it just says “failed to load driver”
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: we wouldnt need an update
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: if the setting exists
Kwikxilver#6241: I don’t think it does but I’ll double check
Kwikxilver#6241: Does windows need to install motherboard drivers?
Kwikxilver#6241: Or something?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: dont think either but u should check |
Kwikxilver#6241: I tried to download the intel driver assistant but it won’t even download .NET
Kwikxilver#6241: And windows updates just don’t work
Kwikxilver#6241: I’m running Win 7 btw
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: you wouldnt need chipset drivers normally but i havent dealt with dual systems before and chipset drivers usually dont have any benifit except a few extra stability
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: > I’m running Win 7 btw
microsoft ended support on win 7
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: so no updates
Kwikxilver#6241: I think my issue might be...I have NO drivers
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: the hp assisstant is pretty trash for older stuff
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: atleast from my trying
Kwikxilver#6241: I tried to install Win 10 first but it didn’t get paste the Win 10 logo; so I tried Win 7 and managed to install it
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: could be drivers ye
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: with hp drivers , atleast my hp printer was , you can choose to download the driver rather than the fincky assisstant
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: by just choosing an older os version
Kwikxilver#6241: I’ll keep that in mind but im nowhere near that right now |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: but i dont think fans are related to drivers
Kwikxilver#6241: I’m just trying to get it to stop BSODing
Kwikxilver#6241: It runs for a bit but under any sort of load the thing just blue screens
Kwikxilver#6241: MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: did u try googling this error
Deleted User#0000: K im here @Bwenfwake
Kwikxilver#6241: Yeah, it just said update the bios
Deleted User#0000: Who has wechat?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: try downloading chipset drivers
Kwikxilver#6241: I’ll give that a go tomorrow
Bwenfwake#6869: Pretty sure nobody uses wechat btw @Deleted User
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: my friend does
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: :crome:
Kwikxilver#6241: No idea why this thing is heating up so much unless the cpu fans are just screwed
Deleted User#0000: Damn🥺 |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: > No idea why this thing is heating up so much unless the cpu fans are just screwed
is it heating or is it just loud
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: cause if its hot , fans obviously go up
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: and it obviously will crash if it heats up too much
Jam#0384: What even is wechat
Jam#0384: :crome:
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: jamuel is here
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: he help
Kwikxilver#6241: @the aggresive toilet flusher when I’ve pulled out USBs from the front panel they seem to be hot
Kwikxilver#6241: But I’m not doing anything strenuous at all
Kwikxilver#6241: So I have no idea why the cpu is maxing out
Kwikxilver#6241: I’ll try installing chipset drivers tomorrow and see where that gets me
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: > @the aggresive toilet flusher when I’ve pulled out USBs from the front panel they seem to be hot
usbs getting hot isnt any indication about how hot the cpus are , they get hot when being used like copying files etc
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: > So I have no idea why the cpu is maxing out |
as in usage ?
Kwikxilver#6241: That’s happening too
Jam#0384: Cpu handles the file transfer, not the USB
Jam#0384: The cpu is doing all the work
Jam#0384: What are you moving, and what cpu do you have
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: i meant the usb itself gets hot @Jam
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: when copying and stuff
Jam#0384: I know but he said cpu is maxing out
Jam#0384: What cpu
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: yea thats a thing ive been trying to get from him
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: its a dual xeon system
Kwikxilver#6241: Sorry. It’s really hard to explain what’s going on without you guys seeing it. I’ll post a video tomorrow of startup so you can hear how fast the fans are going and see the CPU’s performance on task manager
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: hp uu leme
Jam#0384: But you aren’t trying to explain
Jam#0384: :crome: |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: HP xw6200
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: i cant quite understand if hes saying the cpu is getting hot or not but if its maxed out i guess it is
Kwikxilver#6241: For some reason my pics aren’t loading so I can’t send you the pic I took of the cpu
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: why would u take a pic of the cpu bruh ur saying random unrelated things atm or im just confused here
unless ur tryna show us ur repaste maybe?
Kwikxilver#6241: I’ve confused myself
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: indeed
Kwikxilver#6241: Let me just come back to you guys later when I can explain what’s going on properly
Kwikxilver#6241: And give you exact specs
Kwikxilver#6241: I appreciate you trying to help me @the aggresive toilet flusher
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: you dont have to come back later
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: but if u have to leave then ok
Kwikxilver#6241: This is one of the processors in my build. They're both identical. I know it's a Xeon but I don't know exactly which one...searching the numbers has given me nothing https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715007975718387773/IMG_3035.JPG
Kwikxilver#6241: Both of them on the mobo https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715008007251034204/IMG_3034.JPG |
Kwikxilver#6241: From the specs doc - it's one of these. Not sure which. I will double check tomorrow when I turn it on again. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715008349183410181/Screen_Shot_2020-05-27_at_2.07.20_am.png
Lumaterian#3557: that's socket 604 iirc
SuSSudio#2688: Yeah
SuSSudio#2688: Netburst era stuff
Kwikxilver#6241: @the aggresive toilet flusher I've worked it out - these are my two dual CPUs. I had it written down from when I first used the system.
Intel Xeon CPU 3.20Ghz
We had this machine lying around and I'm trying to turn it into a Win 10 gaming rig for my partner, to tide her over until we build her a new pc properly.
The machine shipped with XP - it had since been updated to run Windows 7. Pulling the machine out of the garage I tried to install Win 10, but when I booted to my install USB I only got as far as the Win 10 logo screen - no installer. So, I tried to install Windows 7 and succeeded!
However whenever I boot to Windows 7, the fans in the machine (all fans) seem to be on 100% all the time. The CPU also hits 100% in task manager regularly when I'm not even running any programs. I've cleaned the machine completely, re-applied thermal paste to the CPU and I have replaced the old graphics card with an old Radeon HD 6770 1GB. Still the same.
When I'm in Windows, aside from sounding like a jet engine I can browse the web and download things - but I can't identify my graphics card (just shows up as Generic Display Adapter). I also got a BSOD trying to run Chrome - with the code "MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION". Looking online supposedly it's either an issue with my hardware or it's my BIOS that needs an update. I'm unable to update my BIOS though - trying to update it from inside Win 7 just gives me an error saying "Failed to load driver". |
This makes me think - maybe Win 7 needs the drivers for the chipset? Tomorrow I'll try installing any drivers I can find for it (as well as video card drivers) to hopefully fix some of the issues I'm having. Maybe then I'll be able to update the bios and hopefully get the system to Win 10 so it can get some updates.
Chipset is Intel E7525 btw.
Kwikxilver#6241: I'm heading to bed now but I'll report back tomorrow with more details of how it all went.
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: @the aggresive toilet flusher well then that explains alot of things , one the lack of driver support your system is very old so windows isnt exactly happy and each cpu is a single core with ht ( old 90 nm shit )so explains why its always pegged at 100 which explains the high temps which explains the fan noise and no chipset drivers wont help with those even if it fixed the bsod issues and you mentioned you wanted this to be a win 10 gaming rig sorry mate these things wont game at all if your consider anything , like anything modern at all like past 2005 as luma and dio said this is is socket 604 and more of retro tech at this point @Jam should be able to help you if you still want to run modern stuff on it but its just dead at this point for what you want to do
Jam#0384: @Kwikxilver you can buy a CPU for $50 NEW that will beat your system, and even better Xeons.
Jam#0384: I wouldn't go through with using it if I were you.
Jam#0384: It's a Windows 2000/XP era machine. Netburst came out exactly 20 years ago, and those chips are around 17-18 years old most likely.
Jam#0384: A CPU can be purchased for around $10 on eBay that will outperform that system.
Jam#0384: And even that, would be too slow
Jam#0384: These are past their due date, and they expired over a decade ago.
Kwikxilver#6241: @the aggresive toilet flusher Christ. Sounds like this thing is really a bunch of crap then. I guess I should just give up on it then? Or is there something you’d recommend I do with it instead?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: i think jam would be best answering that but personally id give lighter linux distros a try but lord be with you if you dont have a cd drive
Kwikxilver#6241: @Jam it’s crazy this thing was still kicking around. Would any parts of the current pc be salvageable or is it a lost cause? |
Jam#0384: for a new pc? no
Jam#0384: It's worth money though
Kwikxilver#6241: @the aggresive toilet flusher thanks mate. I guess if anything I got out of it a Linux machine!
Kwikxilver#6241: @Jam how much do you reckon I could get for it?
Jam#0384: $100-$150
Jam#0384: if you parted out
Kwikxilver#6241: No way. Really?
Jam#0384: It's borderline vintage
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: now now , make sure jam doesnt undercut u and nab it off to his collection
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: lmao
Jam#0384: I don't want it
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: lies! :Hahahahaha:
Jam#0384: but I can promise you someone on eBay does
Kwikxilver#6241: I ordered some ram for this thing thinking it would help
Kwikxilver#6241: So I’m that idiot lol |
Jam#0384: ram doesnt help a near 2 decade old pc
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: that thing probably takes ddr1 and if ecc ddr1 is a thing then ecc ddr1
Jam#0384: yes ECC
Kwikxilver#6241: It takes ecc ddr2 ram
Jam#0384: oh thats odd
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: socket 604 ?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: jam is this possible
Kwikxilver#6241: Yeah
Jam#0384: ah ye its possible
Jam#0384: 604 was refreshed during 775 era
Jam#0384: some of the cpus were like 6 cores i think
Jam#0384: HOWEVER
Jam#0384: It's still way too slow and missing way too many instructions
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: woah
Jam#0384: you're better off with the latest dual core Athlon |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: 6 cores
Jam#0384: I think
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: and on his motherboard u can dual socket
Jam#0384: don't quote me
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: imagine if you got 12 cores on that
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: wow
Sentient Potato#6003: Imagine a 12 core celeron
Kwikxilver#6241: Wait, so there’s something I can do with this machine then?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: no dont
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: dont
Kwikxilver#6241: Are you saying I can swap the cpu out?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: not worth , and would probably cost u
Kwikxilver#6241: Hahaha
Jam#0384: Ah nevermind
Jam#0384: Theres a similar socket |
Jam#0384: these go up to 1c
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: Bruh
Jam#0384: sad
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: has ht tho
Sentient Potato#6003: Indeed
Jam#0384: yes
Kwikxilver#6241: Ok guys so what am I gonna do with this thing
Jam#0384: Sell it
Jam#0384: it cant do anything modern
Jam#0384: except web browse on like
Jam#0384: XP
Kwikxilver#6241: Ew
Jam#0384: Don't disrespect XP
Jam#0384: better than 10
Kwikxilver#6241: So what, just sell all the parts separately on eBay? |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: with the right linux distro you can browse website that xp cant help ya with haha xp weak
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: > Don't disrespect XP
*literally does one sec later*
Jam#0384: yeah, sell the board and cpus together tho
Kwikxilver#6241: Idk how I’m gonna post this thing
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ask midnight
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: hell prol tell u how to sell it for 1000 xD
Kwikxilver#6241: I guess if we can get some money for it that would be sweet
Kwikxilver#6241: But is there anything fun we can do with it
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: linux isnt fun but its...cool i guess
Jam#0384: do you like retro games
Jam#0384: and old OS
Jam#0384: otherwise no
Jam#0384: it's a space heater if you need one
Kwikxilver#6241: Excellent |
Kwikxilver#6241: Just what I need, a bomb in my room
Kwikxilver#6241: Honestly thank god for you guys
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ***bomb has been planted***
Kwikxilver#6241: Otherwise I would have spent the next few days on this
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: OOF
Kwikxilver#6241: Scratching my head wondering why a 20 year old cpu wasn’t running win 10
Kwikxilver#6241: 😑
Kwikxilver#6241: Fuck me
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: well like
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: not all 20 year cpus are unable to run windows 10
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: but ye thats a pain in the ass even if it runs
Kwikxilver#6241: Nah it isn’t worth it
Kwikxilver#6241: I’m giving it to my partners dad to mess around with
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: you couldve sold it
Kwikxilver#6241: Yeah I could do that too |
Kwikxilver#6241: The mechanical hdds could be useful when we build my partners pc
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: @mi3night sells and buys stuff on ebay all the time hes made profit doing this , he can help you sell this
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: u do know its gonna be ide right?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: the hdds
Kwikxilver#6241: They’re sata drives
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: woah
Kwikxilver#6241: The mobo has two sata poets
Kwikxilver#6241: Ports*
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: im surprised
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: also i forgot u have ddr2 so its the refresh
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: so i shouldve linked with what jam said but big brain time :crome:
Kwikxilver#6241: Eh it was an interesting rabbit hole to go down
Kwikxilver#6241: I may install xp for the hell of it
Kwikxilver#6241: Or Ubuntu
Kwikxilver#6241: For reference |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: but i wouldnt trust these hdds for anything theyre very old drives and will probably fail
Kwikxilver#6241: How does this compare to raspberry pi specs
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ubuntu is asking for a bit too much
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: raspberry pi doesnt even have a x86 cpu
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: it uses arm cpus
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: like the ones in phones
Kwikxilver#6241: Ah ok
Kwikxilver#6241: But theoretically is the Pi more powerful?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: cortex stuff
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: well like the pi wouldnt be able to do stuff this system can do
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: like run windows xp
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: or any game ur pc can run
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: but for stuff it can do
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ye
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: it would crush ur system |
Kwikxilver#6241: Hahahahaha
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: like browsing and stuff
Kwikxilver#6241: I can’t wait to tell people about this
mi3night#2562: whats up?
Kwikxilver#6241: This is a good story
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: dude is gonna sell on ebay
mi3night#2562: what are u gonna sell? the HP tower
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: he doesnt know where to start so i pinged u cause u have experience selling shit
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: its a really old pc
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: like

SuSSudio#2688: Gn kwikxilver
Jam#0384: no
Kwikxilver#6241: Thanks for your help last night guys
Kwikxilver#6241: Seeing the folly of my ways
Kwikxilver#6241: Got a question for you
Kwikxilver#6241: Is there a cheap (sub 100gbp) build I could do that can run Win 10, photoshop, and most games?
Kwikxilver#6241: I’m assuming the answer is no but I would love to be surprised |
JustinXenyx#8854: In theory you could easily build something like that with used parts, but there is a MASSIVE roadblock, which is the current COVID19 pandemic going on, where people have been buying tech like crazy
JustinXenyx#8854: So while usually you could build an i5 2400 + HD7870 PC with relative ease for 100 quid, right now that is pretty tough
Kwikxilver#6241: Yeah i figures covid would be driving prices up
Kwikxilver#6241: It sucks man
mish#5687: anything that is proton crashes on me
mish#5687: i tried moving stuff to my ext4 partition, still doesnt work
Deleted User#0000: Just managed to pick those up for free. Would they be good for my new build? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715162942856757258/20200527_122013.jpg
MythologicalZ#3752: sure, if they function
MythologicalZ#3752: check health too
Deleted User#0000: I'm going to
Deleted User#0000: one pal of mine here asked if its worth it to swap an i7 4790 to an R5 2600
Deleted User#0000: is it really?
MythologicalZ#3752: If he sells his Haswell stuff off, yeah
MythologicalZ#3752: Get some upgrade money from old hardware and upgrade
Deleted User#0000: its an exchange |
Jam#0384: Then yes
MythologicalZ#3752: so a trade deal then? is it just cpu for cpu?
Deleted User#0000: no
Deleted User#0000: i think its motherboard with cpu
Deleted User#0000: b450m gaming
Jam#0384: I’d take that
MythologicalZ#3752: what does he have to give?
MythologicalZ#3752: just his cpu?
Jam#0384: He has a pretty much same (bit faster) perf now but he can actually upgrade to a better cpu
Deleted User#0000: he already has an kit with the i7 on it
Jam#0384: :haha: :haha: :haha:
Deleted User#0000: with memory
MythologicalZ#3752: just lay out the whole deal
MythologicalZ#3752: so he gets 2600+board
Deleted User#0000: ooh i got it wrong |
MythologicalZ#3752: what does he have to give up?
Deleted User#0000: he is gonna sell the whole kit to buy an 2600 kit
Deleted User#0000: srry
MythologicalZ#3752: if he gets market value for it, sure its worth it
MythologicalZ#3752: high clocked ddr4 isn't expensive either
Deleted User#0000: yeah, he is going to get it for cheap i guess
cant say values here since im from brazil
MythologicalZ#3752: ah
MythologicalZ#3752: he has a gpu right?
Deleted User#0000: yup
Deleted User#0000: 1660 super
MythologicalZ#3752: good pairing for a 2600 then
MythologicalZ#3752: so yeah, worth swapping
Deleted User#0000: ok
MarcosCodas#6375: Hello, peeps. So, I ended up getting an Optiplex 7010 motherboard, model 06yby8, and an i5 2400 (again, this isn't for me, I'm building this for a friend under a VERY strict budget). |
Here's my questions:
1. Am I right in thinking that this particular motherboard takes standard power supplies?
2. The 7010 wasn't offered with the i5 2400, but the motherboard features a Q77 chipset which is compatible with the processor, and of course, the socket is a match. Am I correct in assuming that the CPU will work? Or do I have to get a CPU that was offered on this particular Opti?
3. Are the cooler mounts standard Intel stuff? Or do I need bespoke cooling crap?
Thanks in advance.
JustinXenyx#8854: Even if you bought the SFF one with 2 PCIe slots it takes regular 24pin mobo / 4 pin CPU power plugs, so that shouldnt be an issue
JustinXenyx#8854: I've yet to find someone having issues installing an i5 or i7 into those boards, even if the system technically never shipped with them they very likely have support implemented
MarcosCodas#6375: It's not the SSF one I don't believe
MarcosCodas#6375: Thank you very much for the heads up. That's what I thought but I wanted to make sure
JustinXenyx#8854: Cooler mounting wise, the holes are standard intel but dell used those shitty screw on aluminum coolers
MarcosCodas#6375: I can just use a regular Intel one, though, right?
MythologicalZ#3752: yeah
MythologicalZ#3752: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715230247921909760/Suitable-for-DELL-Optiplex-7010-SFF-9010-SFF-Q77-desktop-motherboard-WR7PY-GXM1W-WDRVH-051FJ8.png |
MythologicalZ#3752: can see the mounting holes are just like any other 115x board
MarcosCodas#6375: Excellent
MarcosCodas#6375: Thank you very much
MarcosCodas#6375: No way to undervolt this conbo, right?
MarcosCodas#6375: Combo*
MythologicalZ#3752: Uhh, I dont think the bios will have voltage control
MythologicalZ#3752: Maybe with XTU
MarcosCodas#6375: PSU is 200w, should be enough as there's no dedicated GPU
MarcosCodas#6375: At least not now
MarcosCodas#6375: (it's not a gaming right, it's mostly graphic design)
MarcosCodas#6375: audio editing, also
Muse#0557: It'll work fine, they wouldn't build a pc that is designed to turn off after 30 minutes
MythologicalZ#3752: iirc power is super expensive where he lives, probably why hes asking
MarcosCodas#6375: I'm asking because I only bought the mobo and cpu (bringing from the US(, and I'm building the rest of the system with local parts. What I have is a 200w PSU, no idea what it originally came with
MythologicalZ#3752: In theory the i5 should be fine |
MarcosCodas#6375: Cheers
thatubuntuguy#5914: Guys need a bit of help
I'm having some touch screen issues
I'm trying to get this touch screen to work on w10
it works fine on my desktop, but the axes are inverted on my mini stick pc
if i try to calibrate it the pc rotates the display
because the display i'm using is portrait by default
thatubuntuguy#5914: @Tech Helper
Jam#0384: I've never used a touch screen with Windows
thatubuntuguy#5914: (sorry for ping but i've been at this for like 3hrs)
Jam#0384: I don't know what any of that stuff is
TheFifthAce#4128: hi gamer
TheGeekster#8508: got the right drivers from the manufacturer? they generally have the tools to set them up right
TheFifthAce#4128: @thatubuntuguy go to display settings
TheFifthAce#4128: you can rotate the display in windows |
thatubuntuguy#5914: @TheGeekster It's this chinese i2c display
TheGeekster#8508: *oh*
thatubuntuguy#5914: i mean
thatubuntuguy#5914: its a touch overlay
thatubuntuguy#5914: which is i2c
thatubuntuguy#5914: which i have stuck onto a 7 inch 1200x1920 lcd
TheGeekster#8508: so it works on windows 10? what OS is your mini stick pc running?
thatubuntuguy#5914: w10
thatubuntuguy#5914: i think the issue is that the 1200x1920 display is portrait by default, so when windows tries to calibrate it rotates it to the normal portrait orientation
thatubuntuguy#5914: but it doesn't help, the axes are still inverted even if i calibrate in portrait mode
thatubuntuguy#5914: like it registers touch and all dat but its just inverted
TheGeekster#8508: ha i had a very similar issue with a cheap lenovo tablet that did the same, things were inverted and shit 🤔 may be dumb, can't mount the overlay up the other way?
thatubuntuguy#5914: i just stuck it on 😦 i'm running out of the tape
TheGeekster#8508: *ah*
thatubuntuguy#5914: it's this funky double sided foam like shit |
thatubuntuguy#5914: to stop the display touching the capactive side
thatubuntuguy#5914: but i think i have enough for one more try
TheGeekster#8508: 🤔 i mean would it fix it?
thatubuntuguy#5914: i don't think so
thatubuntuguy#5914: because anything on the x axis instead reflects on the y
TheGeekster#8508: okay don't take it off just yet then :thinking_peter:
thatubuntuguy#5914: so if i rotate the overlay itself by 180 degrees then it'll just do the same thing but upside down
TheGeekster#8508: where did you buy it from? did it come with a disc?
thatubuntuguy#5914: should i try deleting the drivers for it and letting the thing find the drivers
thatubuntuguy#5914: @TheGeekster aliexpress, advertised as plug and play and it was
thatubuntuguy#5914: plugged it into my w10 desktop and it worked perfectly
TheGeekster#8508: and it wasn't inverted incorrect?
thatubuntuguy#5914: no
TheGeekster#8508: okay now *that* is weird
TheGeekster#8508: like :thinking_peter: it should behave the same, providing you followed the same steps to install it |
thatubuntuguy#5914: ye i literally just plugged it in like i did on the w10 desktop
thatubuntuguy#5914: recognised it perfectly and registered touch but idk it was just inverted
thatubuntuguy#5914: I found it in device manager
thatubuntuguy#5914: should i just uninstall the device and reconnect it
TheGeekster#8508: give it a go
thatubuntuguy#5914: just did it
TheGeekster#8508: :thinking_peter: looking it up it does seem to be a common issue, generally wrong driver or the driver identified it as the wrong screen
thatubuntuguy#5914: didn't work
TheGeekster#8508: have a look back on the aliexpress listing, they *may* have a download link to specific drivers
thatubuntuguy#5914: hmm
thatubuntuguy#5914: ok
thatubuntuguy#5914: theres this file called input.inf somewhere according to device manager
thatubuntuguy#5914: could there be calibration axis info in there potentially
thatubuntuguy#5914: aight i found the listing
thatubuntuguy#5914: Nope |
thatubuntuguy#5914: No drivers
thatubuntuguy#5914: reee
thatubuntuguy#5914: hold on
thatubuntuguy#5914: i have a "device not migrated" event @TheGeekster
thatubuntuguy#5914: I have no idea what it means
TheGeekster#8508: da fuq, device not... migrated
TheGeekster#8508: i saw about input.inf, might be worth having an investigate
thatubuntuguy#5914: Dyu know where it actually
thatubuntuguy#5914: is
thatubuntuguy#5914: bc this emmc is slow as fuck lmao
Jam#0384: Tis a shame the windows search function is practically useless
TheGeekster#8508: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715243357315793016/unknown.png
thatubuntuguy#5914: cheers
thatubuntuguy#5914: i'll have a look ther
TheGeekster#8508: yeah click driver details and it should show where the driver is located |
TheGeekster#8508: if it's stock, it's probably system32\drivers
thatubuntuguy#5914: wasnt in there :/ doing a slow emmc search now lol
thatubuntuguy#5914: i tried to click on driver details but it said no driver file loaded @TheGeekster
thatubuntuguy#5914: what in the name of fuck
thatubuntuguy#5914: how is it registering touch
thatubuntuguy#5914: input.inf has no calibration info
thatubuntuguy#5914: kek
TheGeekster#8508: errrrr it might be one of those files that overwrites defaults
thatubuntuguy#5914: I tried to calibrate it again
thatubuntuguy#5914: And it won't detect my press
thatubuntuguy#5914: because the axis is flipped
thatubuntuguy#5914: :crome:
thatubuntuguy#5914: my desktop doesn't have the device was not migrated thing
thatubuntuguy#5914: wait i figured out how to do it
thatubuntuguy#5914: it's gonna be a fucking pain in the ass |
thatubuntuguy#5914: in the initial calibration i can press literally anywhere
thatubuntuguy#5914: i just gotta map the cross hairs to where i need to press on the inverted display to hit the crosshair
thatubuntuguy#5914: and then it should un invert itself
thatubuntuguy#5914: fuck
thatubuntuguy#5914: didn't work
mish#5687: under pop os i get weird mouse acceleration issues
the mouse is very slow and it slides a lot
linux kernel: xanmod
desktop enviorment: kde
do you know what could be causing this
ive tried another mouse aswell
Miki2305#5707: My textures have a hard time loading gpu issues or driver issues or maybe even hdd being to slow?
Muse#0557: in what game?
Muse#0557: because it could be either or a mix of the two
Miki2305#5707: in gta 5 and in beamng |
Alcyone#2233: texture pop in is usually slow/not enough ram or slow storage
Miki2305#5707: Probably my hdd then
Alcyone#2233: beamng always loads slow with tons of pop in
Alcyone#2233: but if its happening while gaming its probably the above
BigPierogi#3368: @Alcyone idk if im right but in gta 5 if you have a low amount of cpu cache cant it take a while to load textures
Alcyone#2233: i think when loading the map the first time yes
BigPierogi#3368: am i correct
BigPierogi#3368: or am i thinking of something else
Miki2305#5707: I have 2.5mb of cache
Miki2305#5707: 512k of l1 and 2mb of l2
BigPierogi#3368: that may be why
BigPierogi#3368: but dont quote me on it
Miki2305#5707: It probably my slow hdd
Miki2305#5707: It maybe is 7200rpm but its old
Muse#0557: what gpu do you have |
Muse#0557: if the vram gets full
Miki2305#5707: Nope
Muse#0557: its gonna be grabbing lots from the hdd
Miki2305#5707: It isnt vram
Miki2305#5707: I have a 1gb r7 260x
Muse#0557: thats not very much
Miki2305#5707: I have everything on normal tho
Muse#0557: fair enough
Miki2305#5707: It takes up 800megs of vram
Miki2305#5707: And my gpu usage is below 50%
Miki2305#5707: corrupted download?
Muse#0557: its probably the hdd
Muse#0557: especially if youre driving around
Miki2305#5707: holy s**t my download is finnaly ''speedy''
Miki2305#5707: > especially if youre driving around |
Probably is then
Miki2305#5707: My download on epic games is like 500kb/s
Miki2305#5707: wtf
Miki2305#5707: I usually have 100kb/s on epic
Miki2305#5707: Read speeds are kinda slow tbh
Miki2305#5707: And it has s.m.a.r.t
BigPierogi#3368: can you run a crystal disk mark?
Miki2305#5707: Aka auto turn off when its not used
Miki2305#5707: > can you run a crystal disk mark?
Probably
Miki2305#5707: Ye sure
BigPierogi#3368: just make sure nothing is running in the background
BigPierogi#3368: like writing
Miki2305#5707: Yup
Miki2305#5707: Ok |
Miki2305#5707: So pause all downloads and close everything?
BigPierogi#3368: well its more like
BigPierogi#3368: just pause downloads
BigPierogi#3368: just make sure something isnt trying to read the disk or write to it
Miki2305#5707: Ok
Miki2305#5707: its running on my h drive
Miki2305#5707: Ye its getting 60mb/s on read speeds
Miki2305#5707: On a sata 3 interface and a speed of 7200rpm
Miki2305#5707: Yep https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715289074474287114/unknown.png
BigPierogi#3368: yea thats pretty slow
Miki2305#5707: Yup
Miki2305#5707: My drive is slow af, thats the reason probably
Miki2305#5707: My drives are all slow even my ssd
Miki2305#5707: It getting 400mb/s
BigPierogi#3368: in comparison here is my hdd https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715289879076143277/unknown.png |
BigPierogi#3368: also 7200rpm
Miki2305#5707: I should get a new hdd probably
Miki2305#5707: But they are expensive ASF in croatia
BigPierogi#3368: hows the health on your drive also
Miki2305#5707: Like $100 for a 1tb 7200rpm
BigPierogi#3368: f
Miki2305#5707: All of them are healthy
BigPierogi#3368: alright
BigPierogi#3368: what cpu are you using btw
Miki2305#5707: Holy fuck my :H drive has been abused https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715290407524630588/unknown.png
BigPierogi#3368: eh
BigPierogi#3368: not that bad
BigPierogi#3368: im sure cobs probably has way more
Miki2305#5707: I have a slow but still pretty ok Athlon II x4 630
Muse#0557: thats 1000 days |
Miki2305#5707: I have like a 7% bottleneck if someone is wondering
Miki2305#5707: Thank god I am upgrading next year
Miki2305#5707: For a r5 3600 and a rx5700xt
Miki2305#5707: Well that is my goal
BigPierogi#3368: nice
Miki2305#5707: But still thoose drives are slow
Miki2305#5707: imma do more reaserch
Miki2305#5707: Holy fuck my cable menagement sucks
Miki2305#5707: well my case doesent support cm so idc
Miki2305#5707: How big of a difference can a stock cooler make?
Jam#0384: The stock cooler on a 3600 is okay
Jam#0384: Not great, but okay.
Miki2305#5707: No
Miki2305#5707: On my athlon
Miki2305#5707: Because I had a stock cooler and put another stock cooler that is slightly bigger and dropped 20°C |
Jam#0384: I don’t understand what you are asking
Miki2305#5707: I had high temps
Miki2305#5707: On a stock cooler
Jam#0384: No I get that.
Miki2305#5707: And changed it for another stock cooler and dropped 20°C
Miki2305#5707: How
BigPierogi#3368: are you sure it wasnt the thermal paste
Jam#0384: What stock cooler did you change it for
Jam#0384: Identical one?
Miki2305#5707: Another amd stock cooler
BigPierogi#3368: for the athlons?
Jam#0384: Not all the AMD stock coolers are the same
Miki2305#5707: A bigger one but not too much bigger
Jam#0384: Size isnt everything
BigPierogi#3368: hes on x4 |
BigPierogi#3368: are the x6 coolers differnt from x4?
BigPierogi#3368: becuase if so he probably got a x6 cooler
BigPierogi#3368: or a fx cooler
Miki2305#5707: I had this one https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715292127046926400/1200px-AMD_Athlon_II_X4_630_heatsink-fan.png
Miki2305#5707: now this one https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/715292220181315604/s-l400.png
Miki2305#5707: Like bruh
Muse#0557: I really like the mounting mechanism
Muse#0557: It's really satisfying
Miki2305#5707: Its easy af
Muse#0557: And way better than clips
Muse#0557: And screws
Miki2305#5707: Yes
Miki2305#5707: It is soo easy
Miki2305#5707: But still
Miki2305#5707: How can that difference drop 20°C? |
BigPierogi#3368: couldve also been you had dry thermal paste
Miki2305#5707: Nope
Miki2305#5707: Same thermal paste
BigPierogi#3368: wdym same?
Miki2305#5707: Literally applied thermal paste on the stock cooler then ran benches and removed the cooler and thermal paste and applied new thermal paste and the cooler
Miki2305#5707: Same day changed the paste
Miki2305#5707: On both coolers
JustinXenyx#8854: one of them is a dinky aluminum shitpiece, while the other one is a slightly larger aluminum shitpiece that has a much better surface area
Miki2305#5707: Still 20°C?
JustinXenyx#8854: I mean, the temperature sensors in those athlons are really not to be trusted either way unless you view them via AMD Overdrive
JustinXenyx#8854: so something that said 20C difference might have just been 5-10C
Miki2305#5707: Not on overdrive
Miki2305#5707: Coretemp
Muse#0557: Doesn't matter
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah thats wrong then |
Muse#0557: The sensors are junk
JustinXenyx#8854: No it 100% does matter
Miki2305#5707: Well
Miki2305#5707: Not only via coretemp
Muse#0557: 20c
Miki2305#5707: It was pysically colder
Muse#0557: Seems like a lot
JustinXenyx#8854: Because the sensors are being interpreted properly in AMD overdrive
JustinXenyx#8854: any other program just reads them wrong because they are odd as fuck
Miki2305#5707: With thoose thermometer guns
Miki2305#5707: It was literally 70°c and after the new cooler it was 50
JustinXenyx#8854: well yeah, the larger heatsink is not going to get as warm as the smaller heatsink
JustinXenyx#8854: makes sense
Miki2305#5707: well imma do beches
Miki2305#5707: benches |

JustinXenyx#8854: The laptop uses Terascale for graphics, so you are going to run into some odd issues with it because the drivers really have not aged well
dexsters56#4904: @JustinXenyx Catalyst or Crimson Edition Beta which one do i take?
JustinXenyx#8854: The Catalyst ones are more stable and usually perform better, the Crimson Beta drivers usually trade performance for compatibility and are pretty unstable

dexsters56#4904: thats what gpu z shows now
dexsters56#4904: brb il try the link you sent
dexsters56#4904: ok no luck as soon as drivers installed, black sreen and lock up
JustinXenyx#8854: The GPU might be dying then
dexsters56#4904: yeah most likely
dexsters56#4904: im looking into getting mini pcie to usb and usinga mining adapter to attach a gtx 960 to the laptop
Miki2305#5707: Type A?
Miki2305#5707: And Mini pcie?
JustinXenyx#8854: > im looking into getting mini pcie to usb and usinga mining adapter to attach a gtx 960 to the laptop
@dexsters56 That's not worth it
Miki2305#5707: Isn't mini pcie only for nvme?
JustinXenyx#8854: @Miki2305 those are way different things
JustinXenyx#8854: mini pcie is for wifi cards and that stuff, it has now been replaced by M.2 slots
JustinXenyx#8854: NVMe is the PCIe SSD stuff
Miki2305#5707: Gotcha |
dexsters56#4904: @JustinXenyx ok yeah that would make sence that even a old phenom ii x4 955 would still blow the door of thi mobile i5
Bisexual Billy#9476: Has anyone tried a old C2Q laptop?
I wonder what it's like compared to a mobile i5.
JustinXenyx#8854: That wasnt even my main point, the massive issue is that the GPU would get bottlenecked to shit because it only has 1 PCIe lane @dexsters56
dexsters56#4904: @JustinXenyx yeah true. Its better to not even waste money on crummy adapters and just get a desktop and slam that card into that
dexsters56#4904: Yet rn when ever i can im using a phenom ii x4 955 3.6ghz
12gb ram 1x4gb 1x8gb
GTX 970
TheFifthAce#4128: @Bisexual Billy I have a c2q laptop
TheFifthAce#4128: it's fine
Bisexual Billy#9476: Oh wow, what laptop is it?
Some kind of thinkpad?
TheFifthAce#4128: no its some hp massive fuck off media machine with 8gb ddr2 and a dedicated hd 3650
TheFifthAce#4128: c2q t9000 or something
TheFifthAce#4128: 4c4t 2ghz |
Bisexual Billy#9476: Guessing it's a glorious elitebook.
I'm currently using one myself until I get myself a new PC, they're some good shit.
Budget#8265: @dexsters56 If you know much about PCs sometimes forcing the INF File to install on Terascale can work. But thats a last resort option
dexsters56#4904: @Budget i think the gpu is dead because once windows loaded a driver and i saw artifacts as soon as it laptop tried to boot
Budget#8265: Fair enough]
Budget#8265: Ive seen that before
Jam#0384: if you smash it into a million pieces and reglue the entire thing together, you might fix your graphics card
Jam#0384: If that doesn't work, try grilling it or microwaving to make better connections at solder joints
Jam#0384: And if that doesn't work, unfortunately your card is dead.
D.D.M#8226: After smashing it i think there is no hope for it
Jam#0384: You are wrong

Jam#0384: Just the case or?
Megalink#9827: Its broken too but I beileve its power supply issue cause I hear buzzing in the power area.
Megalink#9827: But all I'm doing is cleaning it up first from the inside and out.
Jam#0384: I wouldn't service it to be honest.
Jam#0384: Besides cleaning
Jam#0384: I know about CRTs and setting them up, but maintenance yeah no.
Jam#0384: Not to mention CRTs are practically radioactive
Jam#0384: well, literally radioactive
Megalink#9827: I just wanna clean it, fix the plastic casing too, and hopefully bring it to a repair center that specializes in that stuff

Budget#8265: So this is an up to date fully wiped install of Windows 10 and it happens
Budget#8265: I am stumped on that
LuminousFuture#5919: yeah, i've been trying to look it up and am getting no good help there either. tried swapping out mice, keyboards
Budget#8265: What build of Windows is it

LuminousFuture#5919: windows 10 pro
Budget#8265: Hmmmm
Budget#8265: On Windows 7 and 8 does the issue persist

Budget#8265: He's tried a reinstall aparently
Budget#8265: Id be intrested to see if Windows 7 or 8.1 have the same issues

@LuminousFuture looking at that video, it screams that your mouse/keyboard is doing something funky

Jam#0384: Issue I'm facing: CD/DVD Drive (Any Drive, in Windows Only with any IDE cable) Either does not load discs in Windows, and even if it does upon opening it locks up or crashes and then restarts windows. Doesn't matter boot order, jumper placement, drive, cable, etc. Does the same thing with other gpu/sound card, etc. Issue persists after a Windows Reinstallation, which used a CD on said drive and then still worked. What is the conflict? Any suggestions?
I've used the same installation disc on multiple systems in the past, including this one, with none of these issues present. And the same applies for the drives and cables and other components.
Another issue that I've encountered multiple times is upon attempting to view the files of the DVD ROM that isn't loaded properly, and error messages shows up to tell me My Computer is not responding.
Jam#0384: Chipset drivers, etc are all installed.
Jam#0384: @Tech Helper
Budget#8265: I take it other DVD Drives work?
Jam#0384: nope
Jam#0384: All have the same issue
Jam#0384: but this continued after a Windows reinstall
Budget#8265: and all work fine on another board? |
Budget#8265: Could be the BIOS Chip giving in to Bit Rot
Budget#8265: I have seen that cause I/O issues
Jam#0384: And magically
Jam#0384: I swap again and move stuff around
Jam#0384: And it is working
Jam#0384: the real test is if it remains working after a restart

@Dogecode Perform a factory reset via settings on your iPad, attempt to set it up again, it'll force you to update during the setup as long as you connect to WiFi.

hare_ware#4880: My mom just kicked me out of our home office, so I can't run an "open air" (everything mounted to two pieces of MDF) set up anymore, luckily she's willing to buy me a case. She want's to spend around $50. Is there a case that is relatively small (my bedroom is small), can vertically mount a GPU (I have a card that blocks my SATA ports), but still takes at least 2 more PCI-E cards (one for WiFi and a USB 3.0 card for VR)? The Thermaltake Core G3 was almost perfect, except it only supports SFX powersupplies, making it too expensive. The Coolermaster Q300L is a perfect size, but I'm not sure if I can use the PCIE slots with a v-mounted GPU.
JustinXenyx#8854: That sounds a bit impossible for 50 bucks to be quite honest
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd like to be proven wrong, but from my knowledge, memory etc i would not know a single case that would meet those requirements for 50 dollars
JustinXenyx#8854: also: If you room is "relatively small" do you even have space for VR?
JustinXenyx#8854: One thing that comes to my mind if you are already willing to run an open air bench style setup with MDF: Why not make something wall mounted yourself?
JustinXenyx#8854: Regarding the Q300L, you would need to buy one of those adapter kits for vertically mounting your GPU which would put it over 50 dollars AND there would be no space for other PCIe accessories as all the slots would be occupied (and that is assuming they exist for a case with only 4 expansion brackets)
JustinXenyx#8854: Just for reference, what graphics card and motherboard do you have? @hare_ware
hare_ware#4880: Ah, I knew I was forgetting something, it's an mATX motherboard from a Dell Optiplex 990 and a EVGA GTX1660 SC.
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh yeah those sata ports are placed like absolute shit, i could see even a smaller GPU blocking those
hare_ware#4880: Also, I finished a big commission recently, I was going to upgrade the CPU and SSD, but it looks like I'm buying a power supply and GPU mounting hardware instead.
JustinXenyx#8854: Why not buy a proper case that can fit your current hardware instead? |
JustinXenyx#8854: Pretty sure that would come out cheaper
hare_ware#4880: That's what I'm doing.
hare_ware#4880: It's not a standard power supply I'm using right now if that's what you mean. It's one of those weird Optiplex half height ones.
JustinXenyx#8854: Right then
JustinXenyx#8854: I just checked, i doubt even the Core G3 would fit your needs
JustinXenyx#8854: it only has 2 expansion brackets which are for the GPU, no extra openings in sight
hare_ware#4880: The GPU is v-mounted in the G3
JustinXenyx#8854: which would solve the SATA problem, but still not the expansion issue with the wifi and usb 3.0 cards
JustinXenyx#8854: because those have no place to go
hare_ware#4880: Yeah, frick.
JustinXenyx#8854: I think the best compromise would be to go with an ATX case, which would have enough room for all your stuff instead of trying to compromise with a smaller case
hare_ware#4880: I guess so, I have no clue how much space I'll have my college dorm next year, so I guess I'll just have to hope.
TheFifthAce#4128: @hare_ware $50 and I'll send you a system with full height parts
TheFifthAce#4128: 990 is sandy right?
JustinXenyx#8854: His main issue is just the boards sata ports causing all this |
TheFifthAce#4128: you can put your cpu and ram in
TheFifthAce#4128: yes
JustinXenyx#8854: So even a simple board swap would do the trick
TheFifthAce#4128: I'd include case, mobo, psu
TheFifthAce#4128: :uwuPip:
TheFifthAce#4128: and cooler
TheFifthAce#4128: he just swaps in his cpu, ram, drives and gpu
TheFifthAce#4128: and off to the races he goes
hare_ware#4880: @TheFifthAce I'm going to need way more details than that before I even consider this an option. Are you in the US? What are the specs? And do you have an eBay listing? In the last 14 days do you suspect to have been in contact with a person who may have COVID-19?
TheFifthAce#4128: I'm usa, the specs are whatever you put in them, ebay takes fees, no
TheFifthAce#4128: like I said, $50, I'll ship probably an HP 1155 system with a 380w bronze PSU
TheFifthAce#4128: no cpu, no ram
TheFifthAce#4128: full height
TheFifthAce#4128: you have a cpu and ram that can go into it
hare_ware#4880: I'll pass. |
TheFifthAce#4128: ok
hare_ware#4880: Sorry
TheFifthAce#4128: gl then
hare_ware#4880: Is this a good buy? I'd have to get a much much new CPU, but it seems like a steal. Almost too good to be true. https://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-795231-001-ProDesk-600-G2-LGA-1151-Socket-H4-DDR4-Desktop-Motherboard/362847702921
JustinXenyx#8854: Even with a board as cheap as that in the end you would probably still come out cheaper or around the same price as if you bought a similar AM4 PC @hare_ware
JustinXenyx#8854: keep in mind you would need new memory aswell with both the 1151 and AM4 options
hare_ware#4880: Yeah...
JustinXenyx#8854: also i just noticed this: You would also need adapters for the proprietary power connectors
Jam#0384: yeah practically none of that will work in a normal atx

Jam#0384: It's called OEM
hare_ware#4880: Can I run this off GPU power connectors is the real question.
Jam#0384: no
DarknessFalls229#2286: noooooooo
JustinXenyx#8854: hell to the fuck no+
Jam#0384: That's how you blow stuff up
JustinXenyx#8854: This is some proprietary ass shit with custom pinouts
JustinXenyx#8854: no GPU power connector stuff
JustinXenyx#8854: They might use the same connector but surely not the same pinout
Jam#0384: Just don't buy LGA 1151 anyways
Jam#0384: Stupid socket and that board is probably garbage
Jam#0384: There's more than likely multiple other issues with it working for a gaming system.
Jam#0384: As per usual, my recommendation is AM4 if you're going this route.
Jam#0384: Or 1155 with certain deals
Jam#0384: Reallly depends on price |
Alcyone#2233: never go oem
JustinXenyx#8854: only go OEM if cheap enough
Alcyone#2233: or just dont and keep your manhood
Alcyone#2233: certain oem are okay if they follow the atx spec. but they are still shit, just easier to get working shit
hare_ware#4880: I don't have a lot of money, (I have $100 and my mom is willing to pitch in $50) and this was the computer I used for doing art commissions, but trying to raise funds isn't completely out of the question.
hare_ware#4880: So going OEM is fine, as long as it works.
hare_ware#4880: Oh shoot, this is the motherboard I thought I had linked! https://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-ProDesk-400-G3-799156-001-Mini-ITX-DDR4-1151-Motherboard-Tested/143555070863?epid=2293161318&hash=item216c8c8b8f:g:bRwAAOSwFflekJde
JustinXenyx#8854: My answer still stays: fuuuuuck no
JustinXenyx#8854: :Hahahahaha:
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd think saving up until 200 bucks, then buying used Ryzen stuff and then a cheaper case would probably work out the best
JustinXenyx#8854: especially with that board only having one additional PCIe slot so if you wanted to get another USB3 card you would need to use a USB wifi card and those suck ass
hare_ware#4880: I wouldn't need another PCIe card, since this has USB3.0 on it already
JustinXenyx#8854: 2 Ports lol
JustinXenyx#8854: which depending on your headset is more than you need or only half of what you need
JustinXenyx#8854: The bigger issue though is that people massively overcharge for 1151 chips |
hare_ware#4880: ^
JustinXenyx#8854: And given that this board is probably only compatible with 6th and 7th gen you would be stuck with 4c/8t chips at the BEST so that already is a flawed plan from the start imo
hare_ware#4880: Oh shoot, yeah, going ryzen would make more sense if I can get something cheap enough
hare_ware#4880: XD "ddr3 ryzen phenom" https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/716432066564063414/unknown.png
hare_ware#4880: Okay, new plan, stay on the upgrade path I was going for before I got "evicted", buy this mobo https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lenovo-Motherboard-H61H2-LM2-V1-0-CIH61MI-No-CPU-or-I-O-Sheild/202984873506, and buy a PSU & thermal paste. That way I can keep all the hardware I already have and not need to vertically mount the GPU. Also, this supports 3rd gen CPUs, so that's a big plus.
Alcyone#2233: if you cant afford a ryzen and dont want to buy it piece by piece when you have money 1155 is probably the way to go
hare_ware#4880: ^
wiryfuture🦀#1706: Would I have much of a difference in performance if I switched from i5-8250u to r5 3500u?
JustinXenyx#8854: CPU wise probably not but you would gain a lot of GPU performance
wiryfuture🦀#1706: they look nearly identical to me on specs
Alcyone#2233: i dont know mobile parts
hare_ware#4880: And what are the rest of the specs? @wiryfuture🦀
wiryfuture🦀#1706: uh, well, this? @hare_ware https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HP-14-dk0008na-14-Laptop-AMD-Ryzen-5-3500U-512GB-SSD-8GB-RAM-Windows-10/233581486077

wiryfuture🦀#1706: shorter battery life defo |
wiryfuture🦀#1706: but that's fine
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I believe that hp has type c charging support so I can charge it off my power bank
hare_ware#4880: The Dynabook/Tobisha is double the price
hare_ware#4880: And has half the amount of storage
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I *have* the dynabook
JustinXenyx#8854: Your power bank needs USB PD to charge that laptop iirc @wiryfuture🦀
wiryfuture🦀#1706: @JustinXenyx It does
wiryfuture🦀#1706: 60w :)))
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh damn, you invested nicely on that
wiryfuture🦀#1706: it was only like £35
JustinXenyx#8854: Most people just cheap out on power banks and try shit it is not supposed to do
wiryfuture🦀#1706: 20,000 milliamps
wiryfuture🦀#1706: was on sale IIRC
wiryfuture🦀#1706: charging a laptop with a powerbank is sexy
hare_ware#4880: Maybe sell the Tobisha and get a real man's laptop, a Thinkpad? |
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I think I'll get that hp
wiryfuture🦀#1706: and upgrade my pc with a ryzen also
hare_ware#4880: Yeah, my friend has a similar Omen laptop, it's really nice, but HP's build quality and just plain structural design is pretty terrible.
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I hate dual hinges
wiryfuture🦀#1706: that hp has one of those single hinges, hdmi AND ETHERNET 😩
hare_ware#4880: I'd still recommend the HP though
hare_ware#4880: And a *lot* of plastic.
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I can't seem to find many decent laptops that have hdmi and ethernet
hare_ware#4880: ~~thinkpad~~ oh wait you said HDMI.
wiryfuture🦀#1706: :Hahahahaha:
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I don't want dongle life anymore
wiryfuture🦀#1706: i've had enough
hare_ware#4880: Yeah, but think of all the VGA displays you can plug into!
wiryfuture🦀#1706: my entire school hahah
wiryfuture🦀#1706: none of my stuff or anyone elses's stuff |
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I have a vga dongle
hare_ware#4880: EXACTLY! oof
Xbox 360 1953#2640: What do you guys think about the corsair 100r?
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I used to have it
wiryfuture🦀#1706: the acrylic is horrible
hare_ware#4880: Decent, but there's no PSU shroud and the front panel has very little ventilation.
wiryfuture🦀#1706: little cable management space for a non-modular psu
wiryfuture🦀#1706: has two 5.25" bays you can't remove
Alcyone#2233: no mesh=no buy
hare_ware#4880: ^
wiryfuture🦀#1706: ^
wiryfuture🦀#1706: also it just isn't that good
wiryfuture🦀#1706: spend more on a case with mesh and glass
wiryfuture🦀#1706: acrylic gets scratched up
Alcyone#2233: pc needs air, the most important thing |
wiryfuture🦀#1706: my pc didn't have an issue with cooling
wiryfuture🦀#1706: just dusty
Xbox 360 1953#2640: how about mx330-g
Jam#0384: just get a meshifyc
Alcyone#2233: then after that, cable management space, and nice features like a glass window
hare_ware#4880: Scratched up & "battle scared" is an aesthetic option if you want to go that route.
Alcyone#2233: meshify is like $100
Xbox 360 1953#2640: meshifyc is like 100$
Jam#0384: well yknow what
Alcyone#2233: hey
Jam#0384: shut
Jam#0384: just buy it for less
Alcyone#2233: the metallicgear neo air is $65 and comes with 2x rgb fans
Jam#0384: so 2 useless fans
Alcyone#2233: same chassis as the p350x |
Alcyone#2233: but with a mesh front and no integrated led strips
Xbox 360 1953#2640: for 65$? wew
Alcyone#2233: phanteks p350x https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/716438519199039505/unknown.png

wiryfuture🦀#1706: 😰
wiryfuture🦀#1706: 😩
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Could you link me it?
Alcyone#2233: its just phanteks budget line, quality should still be good
Alcyone#2233: i dont even know where you live or if its available. should be easy to google
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I live stateside
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Checked amz and its not avail there
Alcyone#2233: http://metallicgear.com/Skiron-RGB-120

these are the fans it uses
Alcyone#2233: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/pwzFf7/metallic-gear-neo-air-atx-mid-tower-case-mg-ne520a_bk01
no links on pcpp, it might be sold out atm
Xbox 360 1953#2640: lame
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I'll wait a bit then
Alcyone#2233: coolermaster nr600 is also a good atx case that should be under $70
Alcyone#2233: but i think the neo looks better and it comes with the fans
Alcyone#2233: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083LYL7V5?
p300A is also a decent option
Xbox 360 1953#2640: hmm
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I think I'll wait for the neo since 2 fans
Xbox 360 1953#2640: plus i can steal one from my current case and use that as exhaust
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Thanks you for letting me know about the neo
wiryfuture🦀#1706: is there much of a difference between a r5 2500u and 3500u? |
Jam#0384: zen and zen+
wiryfuture🦀#1706: in terms of performance I guess
Jam#0384: no clue
Jam#0384: laptops are stupid
Jam#0384: so I wouldn't know
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm trying to find one that has like, i5 8250 - r5 2500u or more powerful that has hdmi, type c (charging) and ethernet
wiryfuture🦀#1706: If all goes to plan, I'll have ~£700
wiryfuture🦀#1706: which I can spare for one in this range (of course, less is better)

Ramiere#1840: Is there any bottlenecking with a r5 3600 and gtx 1060?
Jam#0384: The 3600 is enough for a RTX 2080Ti

Ramiere#1840: Oh i guess so
Deleted User#0000: BTW. Can someone explain me about the Plug and Play OS in the BIOS setting? |
Deleted User#0000: I'm not sure because a lot of sources I read often recommends to leave it disabled.
Deleted User#0000: And it didn't make sense to me since modern OS has full PnP capabilities anyway.
JustinXenyx#8854: @wiryfuture🦀 I think i would hold out a little longer for Ryzen 4000 mobile
JustinXenyx#8854: Those chips are fucking impressive for the mobile space
Golo#4822: Does anyone know what card this is? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/716614353096409178/20200531_132409.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/716614353645994004/Screenshot_20200531-132521_eBay_Kleinanzeigen.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: I would guess it's a 460
wiryfuture🦀#1706: @JustinXenyx when is Ryzen 4000 mobile coming out?
Racey#8574: it already is out
wiryfuture🦀#1706: 😳
JustinXenyx#8854: The chips are technically out iirc, it just takes a little from laptop manufacturers to adopt it/bring their products to market
wiryfuture🦀#1706: :crome:
wiryfuture🦀#1706: is the performance boost worth it?
wiryfuture🦀#1706: you can get a laptop with a 3500u for £400
wiryfuture🦀#1706: cheapest I'm seeing these laptops with 4500u and above is £700-ish
JustinXenyx#8854: From what i know/remember: they are a decent bit more power efficient than R3K mobile offerings and the graphics power is a bit better |
JustinXenyx#8854: 4500u is 6 cores vs 3500u which is 4c/8t
wiryfuture🦀#1706: Idc about graphics I use my laptop for programming
wiryfuture🦀#1706: no
wiryfuture🦀#1706: 4500u is 6c6t 4600u is 6c12t
JustinXenyx#8854: that is not what i said? :haha:
wiryfuture🦀#1706: why would I want less threads 😅
JustinXenyx#8854: 6 cores are usually more effective than 4 cores with hyperthreading
wiryfuture🦀#1706: okay
wiryfuture🦀#1706: still
wiryfuture🦀#1706: Idk if that's a £300(+) perf boost
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah true, Ryzen 4000 Mobile is a lot better with efficiency and stuff but if the machine is more used like a portable desktop you wouldn't see a lot of benefits from that
JustinXenyx#8854: And in the end it is up to you if you want to spend that extra money
wiryfuture🦀#1706: If I used less I might be able to go ryzen on my desktop at the same time
wiryfuture🦀#1706: and that would be a massive performance boost
wiryfuture🦀#1706: hahaha i3 2100 :crome: |
JustinXenyx#8854: I think the 400 quid HP is probably the most effective and most budget friendly for you
JustinXenyx#8854: Like, for me a laptop is more of a long term investment and i don't have any issues with my main rig, where as you still run an underpowered i3 and your current laptop is miles faster than your desktop
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I won't get that hp if it doesn't have type c, I think this would be fine, looks metal too, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/233602043507
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I have a decent gpu and an ssd
wiryfuture🦀#1706: if I replace that cpu that I got just to get the system running, it'd be pretty nice
JustinXenyx#8854: If you plan to use that Type C for charging, the ASUS does not support (or does not atleast mention it) charging via USB C
wiryfuture🦀#1706: noooooo
wiryfuture🦀#1706: aaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Budget#8265: @Tech Helper If any of you are around please can you @ me in response to @Muse becoming a possibly Tech Helper
Budget#8265: and if you have any opinions on it
Budget#8265: 👍
JustinXenyx#8854: While i do think they sometimes say stuff that i personally would not directly agree with (or quite frankly would think is retarded) having multiple opinions is good, instead of people for example just coming to me for all their stuff
Jam#0384: He is good for most stuff
Jam#0384: He has above general knowledge
Jam#0384: So I suppose yeah give it |
JustinXenyx#8854: @Budget check the above
MythologicalZ#3752: dont care personally, more people and opinions can probably just help more though
Budget#8265: Fair enough lads
Budget#8265: 👍
Cody#0117: Anyone know why my Medion motherboard only accepts Ram from one set of slots?
Works fine if i put 2 sticks in the 2 slots of the same color, but doesn't regonise extra when i fill up the other 2 slots. in the bios it says only 4 gb (2x2 GB) is seen, and windows says 8 GB (as much as i put in) but only 3.99 gb usable
PC is a first gen i5 system
JustinXenyx#8854: 3 words
JustinXenyx#8854: 32bit Operating System
JustinXenyx#8854: or the board has issues compensating with the higher memory density
Cody#0117: Nope, as i said, only sees 4 gb in the bios too
JustinXenyx#8854: Just for a point of reference, what 4GB sticks are we talking?
Budget#8265: Ive had RAM die and that Windows Detected, but could never use
Budget#8265: Try a Memtest
Budget#8265: 👍 |
Cody#0117: i have 4 identical sticks of 2 gb Hynix PC3-8500
Budget#8265: Hmmm
Cody#0117: all ram works when installed separate
Budget#8265: Tested with another CPU?
Budget#8265: Cause mem controller is on CPU that gen
Budget#8265: Ive seen 1156 Mem Controllers go bad and do that kinda crap
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh i completely misread, i thought you installed 2 sticks with 4GB on each stick not you putting 4 sticks of 2GB in
Budget#8265: Either that or board ded
Cody#0117: memtested, don't have another CPU on hand for that socket, do you really think that could be it?
Budget#8265: possibly, RAM is not my strong point
JustinXenyx#8854: CPU could be a likely culprit for that sort of thing
Cody#0117: Board is fine for the rest and always starts fine (with only the 4 GB)
Cody#0117: Well, guess i'm going to need to get another CPU then
JustinXenyx#8854: Generally older platforms can be finnicky with memory, even with memory that is "time appropriate"
Budget#8265: Yeah wasnt till 1155 that things sorta became a bit more standard and nice to work with |
Budget#8265: 1156 is a funny platform as first main adoption of DDR3
Cody#0117: i mean, PC3-8500 is time appropriate
Budget#8265: I take it youve tried a BIOS update and all that jazz
Cody#0117: yeah, have a 3rd gen i5 system as my main PC, this one is my second one for use with the tv,
haven't tried a Bios update, because i don't know what system the board originally came from
Budget#8265: Medion will likely be Foxconn
MythologicalZ#3752: no
MythologicalZ#3752: msi
Cody#0117: not many markings on the board, but does say N1996 (which probably doesn't have anything to do with it)
JustinXenyx#8854: MSI or Foxconn, my guess would be MSI though
Cody#0117: is a green board though
Cody#0117: and has 6 Sata ports, which was one of the main things i bought it for
Budget#8265: N1996 was an acer board
vegetal#8870: n1996 is a lga775 board
Budget#8265: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/716696854544384023/unknown.png |
Budget#8265: There you go
vegetal#8870: oh yeah
Budget#8265: https://soggi.org/misc/articles/MSI-N1996-motherboard-video-card-odd.htm
Cody#0117: Isn't N1996 just some kind of quality thing?
Budget#8265: Strange website
MythologicalZ#3752: have you checked the pins
MythologicalZ#3752: and which slots are working
Cody#0117: All slots work when the other slots are unoccupied, have not checked the pins as i haven't had the CPU out of the socket
Budget#8265: Might be worth reseating the CPU
Budget#8265: Could be a dodgy contact
MythologicalZ#3752: yeah
MythologicalZ#3752: or bios being wacky
Cody#0117: i'll try that, i'm going to look if i can find which model it originally came from
Cody#0117: and maybe get a bios update
DarknessFalls229#2286: Is there also not some Memory bios setting that limits the capacity. ive had boards before take like 1GB because i didnt enable something like Memory Hole or something. might be exclusive to older boards though |
Cody#0117: Had it take 6 gb once, but doesn't want to take it now
Budget#8265: Might be an issue with Running Dual Channel
Budget#8265: I have seen than on OEM 1156 before
Budget#8265: 🙏
vegetal#8870: searching "N1996 LGA1156" gets me to the i5-650
vegetal#8870: :epicgamer:
Cody#0117: Dual channel seems to work with 2 in the same color of channel, i have the i5-750, which i never had a problem with until i wanted to upgrade the ram with some i had laying around. i have 2x 8 GB DDR3 in my main pc, i'll see if that works and regonizes the full 16 GB, or that something is wrong with the motherboard (won't sell it with my expensive HyperX 8 GB sticks though, only part i ever bought new.
Cody#0117: )
Lumaterian#3557: 1156 has problems with more than 8gb of ram sometimes
DarknessFalls229#2286: it being first gen i series, it might have issues detecting 8 GB sticks
Lumaterian#3557: also can have issues with 8GB dimms
Cody#0117: Well, you win some, you lose some,
i think i lost this one
I'll try anyway
Lumaterian#3557: I once put a 16GB dimm into an 1156 board and the board (which didn't have a speaker or any kind of beep codes) began to scream |
DarknessFalls229#2286: otherwise just buy a pair of 4GB sticks, dont think they are too expensive
Lumaterian#3557: the highest-pitched noise I've ever heard a pc make
DarknessFalls229#2286: you should hear my 9600 GT without its power connector
Cody#0117: think i'll do that if i get any other results with this ram,
otherwise i'll just sell it with 4 GB installed, getting kind of sick of this pc now
DarknessFalls229#2286: 4GB IS still usable, but really not optimal for gaming, if it is a gaming pc youre building
Cody#0117: Yes, it is, it's got a GTX 660 for the rest and some very cheap 550 watt 'MARS GAMING' PSU, which with a bit of luck won't blow up
Cody#0117: it just feels cheap
Cody#0117: you probably know the feeling of a cheap PSU, this one feels even cheaper
DarknessFalls229#2286: an i5 750 and GTX 660 shouldnt consume that much power
DarknessFalls229#2286: so its probably fine
Cody#0117: does have 3 HDD's though
DarknessFalls229#2286: but that getting that 8GB working would be nice, so perhaps a bios uppdate would do good
DarknessFalls229#2286: 3HDDs?
Cody#0117: 2x250 GB in raid and 320 gb as boot drive (were free for me, had them laying around) |
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmm okay i guess
Cody#0117: well, striped partition in windows, so kind of Raid
DarknessFalls229#2286: usually for budget gaming pcs its optimal to have a small SSD combined with a bigger HDD
DarknessFalls229#2286: software raid
DarknessFalls229#2286: dont know enough to know if its worse than hardware raid or not
Cody#0117: are the Aliexpress SSD's any good?
Had a goldenfir or something which wasn't bad.
Asking also because my old SSD lit on fire a few months ago and kind of want a new one
DarknessFalls229#2286: uhhh, well, first of all, dont get a Kinston A400 or anything with a phison s11 controller
DarknessFalls229#2286: theres an SSD list sticky'd to this channel
Budget#8265: Ive had good experiences with current WD Green Drives
DarknessFalls229#2286: so id recommend something like an ADATA SU650
Budget#8265: and Crucial and OCZ
Cody#0117: i now have 4 HDD's in my main PC, i kinda need a bigger drive to replace 3 other drives
Cody#0117: My Crucial SSD lit on fire, a BX100 250 GB one |
Cody#0117: from the early days of SSD's
DarknessFalls229#2286: ive been using a dirt cheap Kinston 120GB SSD for years now as a main drive and its been fine with a bit of data management
Cody#0117: Also have a WD green as second drive and a WD blue as my primary
Cody#0117: and an older 'Greenpower' WD and a 500 GB Seagate 2.5 inch which i had left from upgrading an old laptop
DarknessFalls229#2286: Also, get an SSD with DRAM if you regularly do big file transfers
Cody#0117: i don't really do big files on my SSD's as i use them primarily for booting
DarknessFalls229#2286: then DRAMless is fine
Cody#0117: My pc should not be looked at if you like a cable managed machine, cables everywhere
Cody#0117: even outside the pc to another Sata drive
Cody#0117: it is also watercooled which clutters it up even more
DarknessFalls229#2286: i find it very much worth it to cable manage a pc, unless its a non-essential PC or a pc where youre constantly swapping hardware
DarknessFalls229#2286: Also helps airflow a bit, but if you dont have a seethrough sidepanel, out of sight out of mind
Cody#0117: i do test GPU's a bit before i sell them, i don't have a clear side panel, i have no side panel, i do have 5 fans in it though
DarknessFalls229#2286: well then
DarknessFalls229#2286: out of sight out of mind it is |
Cody#0117: it sits right next to my desk, i don't really mind it, there is a hard drive which sits on its own little table next to the pc which is connected to the PC internally
Cody#0117: Also, anyone know something about the HDD's in cable boxes?
Have a few HDD's (a WD and a Seagate) from almost identical cable boxes which are both originally 500 GB drives, but have a little sticker on it saying 320 GB, drive manager also sees 320 GB
Are these just factory reject 500 gb which have been reprogrammed to only use 320 gb so the manufacturer of the cable box could save a little money?
or do they just have the wrong Seagate and WD label on it which i highly doubt because both say 500 on the original label
Budget#8265: Could check DISKPART
Budget#8265: thatd tell you
Remperus#2847: I need an upgrade for my PC because it cant even game anything now.
Remperus#2847: The specs of my PC are an Amd Athlon II X4 630
Remperus#2847: A 8400gs and 4gb of ram DDR3
Remperus#2847: Im just trying to upgrade my graphics card and add 4 gigabytes more of ram i have a budget of 220 btw
Lumaterian#3557: don't upgrade that, AM3 is a dead end
Lumaterian#3557: you can put a better card in it and it'll help for a bit
Lumaterian#3557: but AM3 is so ancient it's a bad time
Budget#8265: Yep sell up and move to 1155 |
Budget#8265: or AM4 if you can afford it
Cody#0117: 1155 is good, even the i5's are more than enough
Jam#0384: Ehhhh
Jam#0384: No, not really.
Cody#0117: Ehhhh
Jam#0384: The i5s are usable, but even the i7s are becoming too slow for some newer games, and definitely for heavily multithreaded tasks
Jam#0384: You really want a 4c8t with OCing capability on 1155
Jam#0384: However, that is not the value option
Jam#0384: That's poor value.
Cody#0117: yes really, i have an i5 3330 which is more than enough for most modern games at lower settings, and they are cheap used
Jam#0384: So really if you can get an i5-2400 that's cool, it's just barely scraping by though
MythologicalZ#3752: they are good chips for budget builds
MythologicalZ#3752: not much else to say
Jam#0384: Yeah pretty much
MythologicalZ#3752: 4c/4t death has been spoken about for ages now |
Xbox 360 1953#2640: It really sucks how expensive i7s are in comparison to i5s
Cody#0117: got my full set with the cpu, ram and motherboard 2-3 years back for like €100, still works and runs games fine, also with a GTX 960 4GB
Jam#0384: the locked i7 chips and Xeon equivalents can sometimes be had for hardly more than the i5, but not super often.
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: i copied this from an andriod discord that has a tech suport forum so beware wall of text coming in and tbh i dont expect u guys would know but i appreciate it anyways annnde

the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: 2

ROM / Android version: i installed the atx rom for my device the..uu s905w? i think
Root (yes/no): no
Xposed, or any other modifications:
Any physical damage prior to defect: no
Describe your issue: well im having issues with netflix , which did work on this rom before but the version thats currently bundled needs an update and when i downloaded it it appears as if its another app , thing is im getting error code ui-113 and google doesnt help much , i have suspitions it has to do with the app that came with it so i deleted but i dont think deleting it was enough , what files should i delete maybe ? or what should i do ( this is what i think is the fix ) but if this isnt even the issue im all ears
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Oh yeah I forgot about xeons
Jam#0384: Yeah |
Jam#0384: Really the issue is the fact that 1155 is only truly viable on the midrange with a decent OC or better 4c8t
Jam#0384: which is shit value
Jam#0384: You'd spend less on a 3300x rig
Jam#0384: Which is like a 7700K roughly
Jam#0384: So....
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ping me if anyone replies
LaeMat#0420: so i still can't get the linux databases to work
LaeMat#0420: i have no clue
LaeMat#0420: and it's even repeating the ones it already tried now
LaeMat#0420: @Mixi14653
Mixi14653#3883: It doesn't say after syyuu to remove var/lib/pacman/db.lck?
LaeMat#0420: lemme see
LaeMat#0420: still erroring out
LaeMat#0420: it's the same thing the main tab is saying but resolving timed out after 1000 milliseconds
LaeMat#0420: @Mixi14653 |
Mixi14653#3883: It should be
Mixi14653#3883: We do the same thing but with console
LaeMat#0420: should i just download this software from their sites instead?
Mixi14653#3883: You can't
Mixi14653#3883: Arch doesn't work like that
LaeMat#0420: should i have just installed ubuntu instead
Mixi14653#3883: Ubuntu bad
Mixi14653#3883: You're in Canada, right?
LaeMat#0420: yes
Mixi14653#3883: So the US mirrors probably should work
Mixi14653#3883: Do
sudo pacman-mirrors -c United_States
Mixi14653#3883: Then run sudo pacman -Syyu
LaeMat#0420: gitlab name or service not known
LaeMat#0420: wikipedia name or service not known |
LaeMat#0420: bitbucket name or servicce not known
Mixi14653#3883: (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
Mixi14653#3883: Idk, mate, sorry
LaeMat#0420: i tried syyu
LaeMat#0420: failed everything
LaeMat#0420: nothing on google makes sense either
LaeMat#0420: should i just install windows 10
LaeMat#0420: well that'll be too slow
LaeMat#0420: what should i install instead?
LaeMat#0420: pop os?
Mixi14653#3883: Pop is nice
Mixi14653#3883: Idk why manjaro doesn't want to work with you, such a great OS otherwise
Mixi14653#3883: Imma go sleep, i have an exam in 7 hours
LaeMat#0420: imma try pop os and if it doesn't work then imma say fuck it and literally just install android x86 or windows 10
Mixi14653#3883: Fair enough |
Mixi14653#3883: Bye
LaeMat#0420: bye

Aspire#9354: guys i need help, my friends pc turns on fine but no display on the monitor. The monitor only says no display connected even tho its connected to the gpu. Also no hdd activity light. I tried telling him to clean the ram, putting the card on the bottom slot, unplugging and plugging back the video cable, but nothing. Even changing cmos didnt help.
any solution?
FuckinReece#0021: dumb as it sounds does he have the display cable plugged into the motherboard or the gpu
FuckinReece#0021: if its plugged into the motherboard it wont work
D.D.M#8226: If the cpu has integrated graphics tell him to remove the gpu and see if the display shows
wiryfuture🦀#1706: how do I respond to this? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/717026745915670568/unknown.png
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm not mi5, how am I supposed to provide them with sales history of my laptop
Budget#8265: You just give a reciept
JustinXenyx#8854: @wiryfuture🦀 i would take out your real name and that help number
wiryfuture🦀#1706: eh I don't care if people have my name
wiryfuture🦀#1706: half of it is in my discord username who cares
wiryfuture🦀#1706: and that help number is useless anyway
JustinXenyx#8854: oh alright then, i thought the help number had some importance
wiryfuture🦀#1706: yeah
wiryfuture🦀#1706: it's just replying to the email |
Deleted User#0000: Just bought Corsair 8gb 1600mhz ddr3 ram for £22 (which I think is a good deal)
Muse#0557: Thats not too great
Muse#0557: Its not like youre getting ripped off
Jam#0384: that's fairly average
Jam#0384: But I've gotten worse deals so eh
uoʇsodɾ#2412: What's the cas?
MythologicalZ#3752: likely cl9
Jam#0384: probably cl10
uoʇsodɾ#2412: Just wondering. What is yall's prosses for overclocking RAM. For me it's 1. Clock as fast as the bios can post to on stock voltage 2. Look up and apply safe voltage for kit. (ex. 1.4V for most DDR4 RAM. 1.35V if in a hot box) 3. Clock down to a stable memtest86 if needed. 4. Tighten timings as tight until memtest86 shows a bad pass. 5. Relax timings some until no errors are found in memtest86.
Jam#0384: I don’t really care much for extreme ram overclocks
Jam#0384: I just push mhz on stock settings until it says no
Muse#0557: same here
Muse#0557: you dont get the returns for the extra effort
Muse#0557: unlike cpu and gpu oc
MythologicalZ#3752: ehh, modern intel has gains and ryzen clearly does |
Jam#0384: I just use my XMP on my ryzen
MythologicalZ#3752: I basically just do what you said poston, if I have to do manual
Jam#0384: Too lazy to do anything else
MythologicalZ#3752: otherwise just high end kit with good xmp
Jam#0384: I’m at 3200 and thats fine at XMP for me
Jam#0384: I mean I could have gains but it won’t be the biggest deal
MythologicalZ#3752: neato
Muse#0557: atm my cpu is linked to fsb so i havent tinkered in a hot minute
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I might regret not getting the nr600 when it was in stock, i just hope the neo is in stock sometime this month
Alcyone#2233: @uoʇsodɾ p much the same
crank mhz if it can, test, overvolt, test, tighten timings at the highest stable ram clock. test,
Dogecode#7321: My case's memory card reader stopped working a while ago
Dogecode#7321: The four slots show up as removable disks in disk management but they don't show up in explorer and inserting a card causes disk management to stop responding until I remove it
Dogecode#7321: It could just be a weird thing with this old prebuilt case since the internal connector for the reader has only four pin sockets and doesn’t have the top five of a normal USB 2 header, although I read somewhere that it would still work like that
Xbox 360 1953#2640: just ordered the neo air as soon as i saw it back in stock on newegg |
