Alcyone#2233: yes but no HT Muse#0557: oh shit yeh Alcyone#2233: I had 8086k and have 9700k, there is no difference in games Muse#0557: do i bother with the non k Muse#0557: like the i9 9900 Alcyone#2233: I wouldnt mi3night#2562: No Muse#0557: kinda cant be bothered Alcyone#2233: DIY dont really buy intel non k mi3night#2562: No one buys those cpus anyways mi3night#2562: Like the X and XT cpus no one buys them Muse#0557: I want include some hedt Muse#0557: but shouldnt include x299 or tr4/x mi3night#2562: Nah mi3night#2562: @Muse on gaming chart dont
mi3night#2562: On workstation chart yes Alcyone#2233: if you want budget you get an affordable ryzen instead of getting cucked by inel locked Muse#0557: Im making one chart i think Muse#0557: idk Muse#0557: 2 is effort mi3night#2562: No one buys HEDT for gaming Alcyone#2233: x79 and x99 are still fairly popular Muse#0557: Im going to include x99, x79 and x58 mi3night#2562: Fair Muse#0557: just because theyre considered MythologicalZ#3752: except for the bunch of people buying 1366 and 2011 mi3night#2562: I mean new Alcyone#2233: put x58 in the FX tier mi3night#2562: @MythologicalZ i mean super high end mi3night#2562: Like TR4 and 3647
Muse#0557: x58 is close to 775 ipc wise Muse#0557: its not good MythologicalZ#3752: tr4 is dead, there are people who buy 3467 MythologicalZ#3752: muh bandwidth for 2080ti sli Alcyone#2233: ive used a locked 1366, made me not want to oc one mi3night#2562: Also mi3night#2562: High U Muse#0557: So fellas Alcyone#2233: smok trees mi3night#2562: R5 3600, 10400f, 9600k Muse#0557: is 9600k 6c6t mi3night#2562: Thats the next tier down Alcyone#2233: like california mi3night#2562: Yes mi3night#2562: Ayyy thats whats up
Alcyone#2233: the only ht 9th gen is i9 mi3night#2562: I3 9100f? Alcyone#2233: that had to do that to make 10th gen compelling at all Muse#0557: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/745008393957408898/unknown.png Muse#0557: we happy Muse#0557: every time i send the progress just say yes or no Muse#0557: if theres something wrong say mi3night#2562: No 10400f Alcyone#2233: 11th gen is gonna be a hard sell, I feel like its gonna be slower than 10th with its only redeeming feature being pcie 4.0 Muse#0557: 10400f need to be there Muse#0557: so does 8600k mi3night#2562: I guess MythologicalZ#3752: 3800 and 3700 are basically the same thing Muse#0557: is there a regular 3700 MythologicalZ#3752: no
mi3night#2562: 3800+3700 = 6900 MythologicalZ#3752: or maybe idk, probably oem MythologicalZ#3752: there is a non x 3900 mi3night#2562: Ok high mid is gonna be hard mi3night#2562: Muse Muse#0557: the 3700x does need to go up mi3night#2562: High mid hmmmmmm mi3night#2562: R7 2700x??? Muse#0557: id say 2700x belong in high upper MythologicalZ#3752: 10600k when tuned and oced beats i9 and all of ryzen in a bunch of games MythologicalZ#3752: 2700x is slow mi3night#2562: I mean workstation MythologicalZ#3752: mem caps at 3200, basically only pbo tuning MythologicalZ#3752: most people just game Muse#0557: So high upper
Muse#0557: or high mid mi3night#2562: In gaming high low Muse#0557: because id say it belongs with a 8600k atleast Muse#0557: and a 10400f Muse#0557: the 2700 is going a tier below tho mi3night#2562: So high mid or high low Muse#0557: 2700X is going in high upper Muse#0557: i doubt its weaker than a 8600k mi3night#2562: Kek helpers u all agree? Alcyone#2233: 2700x better than 6c6t intel all around Muse#0557: might move the 8600k down tbh Muse#0557: its not near the 10400f or 3600 Muse#0557: idk Muse#0557: i hate this Muse#0557: cpu is too hard
Alcyone#2233: there may be some games where the intel cpu beats it, but the more cores and HT are gonna carry the amd in others mi3night#2562: Thats what she said Alcyone#2233: and even with the lower fps you may get on ryzen, the min fps will probably be as good or better Muse#0557: gotta be fair to a cpu Muse#0557: also consider the future a tad Alcyone#2233: and lets be honest, the minimum fps matter the most Muse#0557: like we gimped vega because it wont last mi3night#2562: Sooooo 2700x belongz mi3night#2562: Upper high mi3night#2562: Ok next cpu mi3night#2562: R5 2600 mi3night#2562: High low Alcyone#2233: 2700x is above intel 6c6t but below intel 8th+ 6c12t and 8c8t for gaming mi3night#2562: I5 8400f high low mi3night#2562: 9400f is also high low
mi3night#2562: R5 1600af high low Alcyone#2233: 2600 and 1600af should be the same mi3night#2562: Yeah but people will ask about it Muse#0557: brb lads mi3night#2562: So might as well put both Alcyone#2233: minimal difference, if the margin is below 10% I call it close enough mi3night#2562: I know:Crome: mi3night#2562: I mean might as well put it there mi3night#2562: To let people know Alcyone#2233: shout out to intel users razzing amds because they get 165fps vs 145 mi3night#2562: Also what about 1800x mi3night#2562: Upper mid? mi3night#2562: Or high low mi3night#2562: Oh yeah nvm mi3night#2562: R3 3100 exists
Alcyone#2233: 14nm ryzen was not a great gamer cpu mi3night#2562: 3300x is also high low mi3night#2562: So is 3100 and 10100 Muse#0557: I tried to roughly outline the whole graph and I think we are spreading the high end too much.. Muse#0557: Like having the x3440 within distance of a e8400 is a crime mi3night#2562: But we dont want people to think that r5 1600 is a high end cpu Muse#0557: I mean relatively speaking it is Muse#0557: Cheap hardware now is more powerful than its ever been Kacpreusz#7656: Compaq 610 Core 2 Duo T5870, 3gb ram broken speakers and battery, power supply included 199PLN Dell Latitude XT good condition battery works stylus is broken Core 2 Duo U7700 3GB ram unknown hard drive nie power supply included 250PLN Dell Latitude D830 Core 2 Duo T7500 2GB ram, HDD 320gb power supply included, broken battery 249PLN Kacpreusz#7656: Wich one should i buy? Kacpreusz#7656: Hard drive will be replaced with my SSD and over time i will upgrade ram
JustinXenyx#8854: Probably none of those if i'm honest Kacpreusz#7656: I need something asap Kacpreusz#7656: and my budget is tight Muse#0557: Does it have to be a laptop Muse#0557: And what's it used for Kacpreusz#7656: Until very recently i was just fine with a Pentium T4200 Kacpreusz#7656: Web browsing, watching movies, old games Kacpreusz#7656: Preferibly a laptop Muse#0557: Honestly a T5870 for 40 quid isn't bad Muse#0557: Plus ddr2 ram costs literal pocket change Kacpreusz#7656: I think this Compaq has ddr3 Kacpreusz#7656: And if it does, i can instantly put in 8gb from my dead Acer Kacpreusz#7656: If it didn't die with the motherboard Muse#0557: It has a 800mhz fsb so Muse#0557: I'd assume its ddr2
Kacpreusz#7656: My Acer also had 800mhz fsb Muse#0557: Oof Muse#0557: It's DDR2 Muse#0557: Just googled Muse#0557: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/745014069542649976/41OjI5mwtYL._AC_SY400_.jpg Muse#0557: Also for the era that's not a bad STB ratio Kacpreusz#7656: I'd say the Latitude D830 would be the best, i have trust for older dells Muse#0557: If you want to spend the extra go for it Kacpreusz#7656: rn i'm forced to use a 2002 Latitude C640 Muse#0557: It's like what 50 bucks Muse#0557: I would save up tbh Muse#0557: Or use a pc Muse#0557: But 50 quid isn't bad Kacpreusz#7656: School starts in like 3 weeks and most likely it will be online classes agin Muse#0557: Alot of sockets back then were pga so you might even be able to upgrade the cpu
Kacpreusz#7656: I know Kacpreusz#7656: I wanted to upgrade my Acer to a Core 2 Duo P8700 but it completely died today Muse#0557: I would get the XT tbh Kacpreusz#7656: No reaction to power button or charger, i tried multiple chargers Kacpreusz#7656: Why? JustinXenyx#8854: You have 3 weeks, right? JustinXenyx#8854: I would probably try to scratch up a little more cash and see if you can build a basic PC or something along those lines JustinXenyx#8854: It'll be a way better experience than an old laptop and you can probably get more for your money than going with a laptop Kacpreusz#7656: If the XT uses standard Sata 2,5inch drives i may buy it Muse#0557: Batteries for old laptops tend to be overpriced so you'd have to drop another 25 for the D830 which you might aswell just buy a pc with Kacpreusz#7656: A pc would be cool but i live with my sisters in one room so i would get absolutely 0 privacy with a pc Kacpreusz#7656: In like a year i'm moving to another house then i will save up for a decent pc Muse#0557: "Can't jack off therefore don't want" Kacpreusz#7656: not that Kacpreusz#7656: i just don't like someone constantly looking at my screen
Kacpreusz#7656: So annyoing Kacpreusz#7656: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/745016262702137344/Screenshot_20200817-222809.png,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/745016262895337644/Screenshot_20200817-222820.png,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/745016263352254626/Screenshot_20200817-222828.png Kacpreusz#7656: The XT has the slowest processor and i bet it's soldered to the motherboard Kacpreusz#7656: The Compaq may be soldered Muse#0557: Google man Kacpreusz#7656: The D830 has the fastest cpu doesn't it? JustinXenyx#8854: i mean they won't perform that different if we're honest JustinXenyx#8854: we're talking about 100Mhz clock differences as far as i remember Kacpreusz#7656: I can always put in my Pentium if it's supported and if it's any faster Kacpreusz#7656: The Dell 100% has socket P Kacpreusz#7656: the not tablety one JustinXenyx#8854: if anything your T4200 is worse than even the slowest Core 2 Duo on there JustinXenyx#8854: You're getting an "upgrade" either way leewake9705#9644: I saw a latitude D610 in the bin today but i didnt bother to pick it up becasuse a part of it was in water Muse#0557: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/745017925265522768/unknown.png
Muse#0557: @Alcyone hella rough Muse#0557: but like JustinXenyx#8854: if i'm honest, a CPU list like that is gonna get way too complicated way too quick BigPierogi#3368: what about BigPierogi#3368: instead of listing specific cpus BigPierogi#3368: you list something like BigPierogi#3368: 2nd gen i7 BigPierogi#3368: for the older ones Kacpreusz#7656: Really? That's cool Muse#0557: Yeh im going to Muse#0557: Just easy to type out 2600k for the planning Kacpreusz#7656: Alright so i'm getting the D830 i guess Kacpreusz#7656: Unless the DX has a standard 2.5" drive Kacpreusz#7656: XT* Kacpreusz#7656: It does not
Kacpreusz#7656: So D830 it is Kacpreusz#7656: I think o should be able to swap the battery cells to it from my Acer with some blyatiful Slavic engineering skills i have :8bitsandconstantlyswapping: Alcyone#2233: if you dont use it on the go cant you just run it with no battery? leewake9705#9644: well can you buy replacement d830 batteries in your country leewake9705#9644: i saw a d610 in the electronics bin today but the left side of it got wet so i didnt end up getting it but it was reteavley old with a windows xp pro coa Kacpreusz#7656: I can but it would be neet to have a working battery Kacpreusz#7656: Replacements ain't expensive https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/745047805470703725/Screenshot_20200818-003046.png Kacpreusz#7656: Good known brand replacements are double the price https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/745047889176297522/Screenshot_20200818-003326.png Kacpreusz#7656: And from my experience both are gonna work just as well leewake9705#9644: well at least you can buy batteries in your country leewake9705#9644: but what were you planning to use the laptop for since it is only a C2D laptop Gamefreak924#5901: My netbook's OS says I have 1GB RAM installed but CPU-Z puts it as 2004MB (~2GB). What could be the issue? JustinXenyx#8854: RAM stick not inserted correctly @Gamefreak924 JustinXenyx#8854: If CPU Z can read out the memory info but the OS doesn't recognize it, it is almost always RAM that isn't inserted right FantaStick#8008: or the OS is just being a tard
FantaStick#8008: but never hurts to do a nice reseat Gamefreak924#5901: There is only one stick as well Gamefreak924#5901: Is it possible for the ram seating to still be the problem? Budget#8265: Ive had RAM die that did that Gamefreak924#5901: Hmm interesting. Guess I'll check it Gamefreak924#5901: Didn't wanna do it because I have to take apart the whole base of the laptop just to get to the memory Kacpreusz#7656: > but what were you planning to use the laptop for since it is only a C2D laptop @leewake9705 Use it daily Kacpreusz#7656: For like a year Kacpreusz#7656: Then i will build a decent pc and this laptop will be like a toy for screwing around with Linux Gamefreak924#5901: C2D can still hold up as long as you have a good gpu Gamefreak924#5901: I gave my girlfriend a core2 laptop Kacpreusz#7656: It has Intel GMA Kacpreusz#7656: But i hardly ever play games on my computer Gamefreak924#5901: egpu
Gamefreak924#5901: If you want to be cheap and don't care to game on the go, it could be worth it JustinXenyx#8854: usually the cash invested into an eGPU setup can be put right into a proper desktop Gamefreak924#5901: For my girlfriend's laptop, I did the following: Upgraded to an SSD Upgraded RAM to 4GB Got a smartcard egpu kit Gamefreak924#5901: Sometimes people still need a laptop to use on the go. Egpu setup with having just an old card laying around costed me $65 or so JustinXenyx#8854: *with an old card laying around* is the big catch imo Gamefreak924#5901: I mean if you want a cheap card, you can get a GT 1030 JustinXenyx#8854: if you had to buy a GPU it would have been cheaper to build a low-end desktop Gamefreak924#5901: Nah JustinXenyx#8854: hell a lot of decent budget desktops can be built for $100-150 Gamefreak924#5901: Well yeah just take an old Optiplex and stick a new graphics card in it Gamefreak924#5901: But I'm saying if they also want a laptop to take around places and somewhat have the option for on-the-go gaming, that's it Gamefreak924#5901: My girlfriend doesn't really have the space for a desktop anyway lol
Kacpreusz#7656: 4gb isn't much Kacpreusz#7656: of ram Kacpreusz#7656: Unless you're on win 7 JustinXenyx#8854: If you wanted something for on-the-go gaming chances are you'd buy a more powerful laptop JustinXenyx#8854: I'm all for eGPU setups, especially with Thunderbolt around. But they're fucking stupid if they don't make sense Gamefreak924#5901: She's on 10 Kacpreusz#7656: I dont care about going outside with my laptop, leave alone gaming outside Gamefreak924#5901: 4GB is still fair if you want to be budget conscious JustinXenyx#8854: Christ what on fucking earth is she doing with Windows 10 on 4GB of RAM Lady Mipha#0611: ^ Gamefreak924#5901: She just programs, messes with Unity, and will be doing light gaming Gamefreak924#5901: And web browsing Lady Mipha#0611: :Bruhh: Kacpreusz#7656: i hope it's 32bit Gamefreak924#5901: She hasn't had any issues. 64-bit
Kacpreusz#7656: Well my mom also has 4gb of ram in her Vaio and she also has windows 10 Gamefreak924#5901: The laptop actually goes a bit faster than my more recent Celeron laptop that I'm stuck using lol JustinXenyx#8854: I can only imagine her pain Kacpreusz#7656: But she only does basic tasks Gamefreak924#5901: Pain? Gamefreak924#5901: You don't need good specs to program JustinXenyx#8854: My current Opera tabs take up 4GB **ON THEIR OWN** JustinXenyx#8854: :haha: Gamefreak924#5901: That's a you problem then Gamefreak924#5901: She hasn't reported any issues Gamefreak924#5901: Besides, her only other option for a computer is her school-provided chromebook lolol JustinXenyx#8854: What Chromebook is it? JustinXenyx#8854: ARM or x86? Gamefreak924#5901: I don't have the specs. I'll have to look at it next time I go over there Gamefreak924#5901: Suffice to say, she uses the laptop I gave her a lot more than the chromebook

Not anywhere near enough to merit just getting a new one Gamefreak924#5901: Besides, it did give me an excuse to get the laptop off of my hands haha Gamefreak924#5901: Dang I was really hoping the memory on that netbook was actually 2GB, but no, only one T_T Gamefreak924#5901: And the only spare ram sticks I have are 1GB.

wiryfuture🦀#1706: let it use defaults manfire7#6750: I'm down to mess with drivers if it'll get me more gpu power, are they that much of a hassle to game on? "Cobs"#1150: You're missing the point "Cobs"#1150: Quadro's aren't made for gaming....like at ALL "Cobs"#1150: lots of games won't run with unsigned drivers too "Cobs"#1150: Quadro's are for CAD work and other workstation professional applications. You'll have absolutely no driver optimisations for games. wiryfuture🦀#1706: (basically they're arse for games) "Cobs"#1150: Just get a geforce card or radeon if you want to game manfire7#6750: Yeah I know they're intended for workstation use, can you not put geforce drivers on them? "Cobs"#1150: Nope Budget#8265: Pretty much anything with anticheat doesnt like Quadros cause unsigned drivers "Cobs"#1150: GeForce drivers are for GeForce cards, not Quadro's. Budget#8265: Nah they dont do Workstation/Gaming Drivers anymore "Cobs"#1150: There's a reason why they don't share the same drivers. Budget#8265: Admitedly they used to
manfire7#6750: Ah ok, I know I've seen it done on a tech YouTube channel but might have been an old card manfire7#6750: @"Cobs" you're acting like they're a world apart, aren't they architecturally the same and sometimes even identical to geforce cards? I thought drivers were the only real difference "Cobs"#1150: Technically the drivers are the main difference, but you also have other things thrown into the mix. "Cobs"#1150: Nowadays they are two completely different worlds. If you need content creation based drivers, Nvidia have made the GeForce Studio drivers for such tasks Budget#8265: The older cards where they were Geforce Rebands actually let you use Geforcedrivers Budget#8265: and then the workstation sutff was called Forceaware Budget#8265: or some jazz Budget#8265: Really if you need a GT1030 theyre getting pretty cheap, same with the RX550 manfire7#6750: What about amd workstation cards? "Cobs"#1150: you're going the wrong direction again Budget#8265: They have a few, but very expensive manfire7#6750: Not in canada, haven't seen one under $100 "Cobs"#1150: If you're trying to game, get an RX card or standard radeon HD Budget#8265: 100 CAD = £50 Budget#8265: or around that
Budget#8265: What kinda system is this for Budget#8265: The GTX650 is pretty cheap and I have a video on it manfire7#6750: Lmao I wouldn't be looking at workstation cards if I had a choice Budget#8265: 👍 manfire7#6750: It's for a sff build need a card with no external psu input and >60w tdp "Cobs"#1150: GT1030 Budget#8265: HD7750? GT1030? GTX750? manfire7#6750: Was just looking into the workstation cards to see if I could squeeze a bit more performance out "Cobs"#1150: You'll get less performance with workstation cards on modern workstation drivers in games manfire7#6750: Ok yeah that's the answer I was looking for manfire7#6750: So gt1030 is my best bet for performance with under 60w tdp? "Cobs"#1150: any of the 3 Budget recommended should do manfire7#6750: Or rx550 but looks like they're basically on par "Cobs"#1150: yeah wiryfuture🦀#1706: this gets me invalid, this is the default generated on my server with only webserver enabled

Muse#0557: No manfire7#6750: What would you say is reasonable/link to cheaper? vegetal#8870: Ebay manfire7#6750: Cheapest on Ebay is $65 and coming from China, everything else is >70. 1 other auction but also from China Muse#0557: Don't buy a 1030 unless you have to Xbox 360 1953#2640: They need 1030 since psu low wattage iirc manfire7#6750: I do, it's for a sff pc without the psu wattage for a full 75w card Muse#0557: Try find one locally manfire7#6750: Yeah I posted on a local tech forum, guess I'll try reddit
Muse#0557: Try Facebook marketplace Muse#0557: Gumtree Muse#0557: Craiglist Muse#0557: Sphock manfire7#6750: What was the going price for them pre covid? Muse#0557: Go look Muse#0557: Covid hasn't really affected the 1030 tbh manfire7#6750: Idk, kinda seems like pretty much all pc hardware is marked up right now Muse#0557: Go for the best price you can get manfire7#6750: Alright, thanks! Don't need it for a few weeks so I'll keep poking around used marketplaces JustinXenyx#8854: well the GDDR5 1030 always was around 70 dollars Muse#0557: Yeh new manfire7#6750: Yeah the evga one I'm looking at is ddr5 but refurb JustinXenyx#8854: If you have the space and the money a low profile 1650 would do the job better and you'd get much more performance for the price manfire7#6750: I'd need to upgrade the psu at that point and I'm not really trying to make it a gaming rig anyways. Bought it to use pretty much as is as a home server but ideally want something that my little brother can play fortnite and indie games on
manfire7#6750: I only have an hd 7870 in my own rig manfire7#6750: Is there anything cheaper than the gt 1030 that comes close to the performance? Like is that the bare minimum for fortnite and esports titles? leewake9705#9644: well leewake9705#9644: i dont know how good a 8600gt would do but thats what i use and i only have a 350w psu leewake9705#9644: its old but it works leewake9705#9644: but i know that people would uasally want something more powerful D.D.M#8226: Hey guys so i recently bought a r9 280x vapor x oc variant for about 45€ and sometimes when i play a demanding game for some time (Hitman 2 for example), the screen turns black and the pc is unresponsive. The card would hit a max temp of 73 c and i also have a 750w psu. Any idea? D.D.M#8226: And a game like TF2 doesn't lock up the system. manfire7#6750: I'm assuming the card is used? manfire7#6750: Might just be dying manfire7#6750: I'd swap out the thermal paste if you haven't already D.D.M#8226: Yeah i thought manfire7#6750: 73 C should be fine though and if this is the only gpu in your system 750w is probably overkill. I'm definitely not an expert on this stuff so maybe wait for someone else to chime in. But as far as I know cleaning it up and replacing the thermal paste are about all you can do for it. Check out the capacitors when you've got the cooler off. You might be able to get a bit more life out of it with a "reflow" but that's a last resort for when you've totally given up on it.

D.D.M#8226: Every other games i play work fine MythologicalZ#3752: what driver are you running? leewake9705#9644: sounds like my problem but 5x worse leewake9705#9644: does hitman2 and gtav always do this when you launch it or does it happen when it wants D.D.M#8226: With gta 5 after like 20 minutes D.D.M#8226: Hitman 2 same but sometimes in the main menu leewake9705#9644: hmm D.D.M#8226: Also latest drivers MythologicalZ#3752: uninstall and run 17.7.1 and test the games again leewake9705#9644: have you been able to run firestrike on it or any other gpu stress test MythologicalZ#3752: basically the best driver because 1st refresh, so it'll rule out issues with drivers D.D.M#8226: Other games like tf2, payday 2, minecraft, roblox, valorant on the highest settings run fine leewake9705#9644: wow my computer crashes regardless of game leewake9705#9644: it must be a problem with gtav and hitman favoring nvidian cards D.D.M#8226: Well i am thinking of replacing the paste
leewake9705#9644: so like mythologicialz said i would look at the drivers D.D.M#8226: Ok got it leewake9705#9644: well you should probally have a once over physically becasue it is a used part right D.D.M#8226: Ok so i installed driver version 20.4.2 and with msi afterburner i set a higher fan speed D.D.M#8226: Now i am testing hitman leewake9705#9644: alright D.D.M#8226: Nope still happens D.D.M#8226: Another lower version? MythologicalZ#3752: yes, much lower MythologicalZ#3752: nothing 20.xxx MythologicalZ#3752: modern amd drivers are unstable MythologicalZ#3752: try 17.7.1 or 18.5.1 D.D.M#8226: K ima see leewake9705#9644: are you acually able to download the older drivers straight from amd MythologicalZ#3752: their site is kinda broken for that, guru3d should have the downloads worst case
D.D.M#8226: Amd only has versions 19 and 20 leewake9705#9644: i would just say download them from a reliable source because they could have more then the driver and really mess up your day D.D.M#8226: K leewake9705#9644: i mean idk if the internet archive has drivers but i know they have os MythologicalZ#3752: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/amd-radeon-software-crimson-relive-17-7-1-driver-download.html MythologicalZ#3752: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/amd-radeon-adrenalin-edition-18-5-1-driver-download.html MythologicalZ#3752: there D.D.M#8226: Ok so since my little brother also asked some other people around discord and they said try switching to standard preset in the amd control centre and he is still playing and nothing has happened i will keep you updated MythologicalZ#3752: :TheGoods: TheSwiftTiger#8189: this monitor any good?

TheSwiftTiger#8189: reputable brand right? D.D.M#8226: Ok so after a 30 or so minutes hitman 2 gameplay nothing happened but i have to go somewhere D.D.M#8226: So i will continue testing tomorrow leewake9705#9644: alright Budget#8265: Freesync is awesome Budget#8265: can confirm Racey#8574: Variable Refresh Rate epic Racey#8574: :thumbsupcat: Bwenfwake#6869: My friend has a budget of £1600 for a new PC so I've put together this rig for him.

Bwenfwake#6869: I thought about that, however I don't really see him using more than 32GB of RAM. Kinda thought that he'd benefit from the quad channel more so but I guess that that is his decision lol @DarknessFalls229 DarknessFalls229#2286: Quad channel????

Flannel84#2980: I'm curious as to if anyone could help me with an overclocking problem. I built a Pentium 4 PC that I have running windows 7 64bit to basically push the limits of what is possible on this cpu. The problem is that for the overclock I can only manage to gain .1 GHz on the overclock before I just get a black screen. I think it may be PSU related (400 watt PSU) but I've never really messed with overclocking on something this old. The mobo is an ASRock P4VM890 and the cpu is the SL7QB. leewake9705#9644: well honestly i would not try to overclock a presshot unless you have extreme cooling and a overkill power supply becasue as you know those things love power and heat. I did look up the parts that you are running which is a socket 478 motherboard capable of overclocking and a 3.2ghz pentium 4 from what i found but it seems wierd that you can ont ger a overclock of 100mhz on the processor. I dont know how basic your motherboard bios is but my gigabyte am2 one is but there might be some fail safes of some sort or a protection setting against heat and it wont let it past a certain tempature.these are the the things i can think of becasue the last time i was using a p4 it was on windows xp. Flannel84#2980: It's probably bound to my psu then. My cooling is a raidmax tower cooler that looks like it was made yesterday and should have no trouble cooling. I might try hooking up my 500 watt evga unit tomorrow to see if it helps. The bios is the final revision as well, 1.90. leewake9705#9644: alright yeah i looked at the cooler and yeah it looks like you could put it on a new processor but yeah it could be the power supply especially if it is a kectup and mustard one DarknessFalls229#2286: @Muse bruh i did the watermark in paint.net with transparent text. What do you want the watermark to say, now that im awake DarknessFalls229#2286: Last time it simply said **@Muse** leewake9705#9644: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746342978406056046/IMG_20200821_141941.jpg leewake9705#9644: A $5 part saved this $2000 laptop leewake9705#9644: and the $5 was the charging port Muse#0557: It's all good now leewake9705#9644: yeah leewake9705#9644: it was an old rog laptop that i need to use for school so im really happy leewake9705#9644: i had my father help me solder the new plug in Kacpreusz#7656: Can't wait for my T420 to show up

leewake9705#9644: yeahhh FantaStick#8008: @TheFifthAce inspect this Bertie Kemp#1114: Let me know exactly how bad it is, trying to save a friend from buying it leewake9705#9644: ok FantaStick#8008: Looks useable to me but I will let our resident PSU expert deal with it leewake9705#9644: you cant even power an led with it leewake9705#9644: on all rails Deleted User#0000: From my limited research, Kolink seems to be similar to Vaseky; Legit products, and very cheap. Not the best, but not the worst FantaStick#8008: I know kolink is popular over there for cases and stuff FantaStick#8008: If you're in the UK/EU I'm pretty sure your meta is just buying BeQuiet units Alcyone#2233: it does not appear to have overtemp protection, which could be a little worrisome on an offbrand "700w" psu https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746432171643895828/unknown.png Bertie Kemp#1114: Right, be quiet it is then lol Lemolea#4442: Uhm, what does 80+ bronze mean? Does it really matter between bronze and platinum, or do you just want something *with* a rating?? Alcyone#2233: its the efficiency, 80+ is 80%
bronze is 85% I think and it scales slower from there FantaStick#8008: Power conversion efficiency FantaStick#8008: When you convert AC to DC you can't do it 100% effectively FantaStick#8008: You essentially lose some Alcyone#2233: a normal 80+ at 400w load will pull 480w from the wall Lemolea#4442: Yeah, but like... does it matter too much? Does PSU efficiency actually effect your pc/performance? FantaStick#8008: No FantaStick#8008: It effects your power bill to an extent Alcyone#2233: no but units with a higher rating usually have better components Alcyone#2233: and run cooler FantaStick#8008: Matters more when you're a big server farm with thousands of systems Lemolea#4442: Ahhh, okay Lemolea#4442: Thank you :) Lemolea#4442: Was gonna get @Bertie Kemp to build a pc for my sister but she ended up just getting one from overclockers (she's why he was asking).

Lemolea#4442: Just annoying that we offered to basically do everything for her then she went and got a prebuild 😤 Bwenfwake#6869: Please don't buy that Kolink PSU, it is not even mentioned on the LTT PSU tier list. Xbox 360 1953#2640: would anyone here happen to have a 2tb 7.2 n a 4tb 5.4 drive and have done like crystal disk info or something? wanna prove to someone bigger drive = faster but i dont wanna pay 160 for both
JustinXenyx#8854: Would anyone realistically notice the difference? JustinXenyx#8854: :Xdxdxd: Xbox 360 1953#2640: I doubt it Xbox 360 1953#2640: but he is like "noooo u cannot buy 4tb 5400, 5400 sucks its slow as balls" Muse#0557: Honestly the speeds are probably similar since bigger drives are faster anyway Muse#0557: Get the 4tb if they're the same price Muse#0557: Or just the 4tb if I'm reading wrong Muse#0557: Or a 6tb single drive if he needs that much FantaStick#8008: LTT PSU tier list is not the end all be all on PSU ratings, look at actual specs and reviews yourself and do your own research FantaStick#8008: Luke is a smart guy who knows his stuff but the list really has created a gatekept closeminded attitude towards any psus that aren't at least B tier which is baffling Muse#0557: I need to finish graphs Muse#0557: Then bomb/psu graph FantaStick#8008: Psus should fall into 3 categories: Fucking godlike, Solid units, confirmed fire hazards Muse#0557: Nah JustinXenyx#8854: that's a bit too simplified imo
JustinXenyx#8854: Especially when there is a lot of grey area between those 3 categories Muse#0557: Use as life support, I am titanium, Efficient boi, power supply, supplies power, taser, fire hazard, bomb, bestec FantaStick#8008: I mean sure Muse#0557: These are the tiers FantaStick#8008: Problem is people have misinterpreted what the tiers mean Muse#0557: I'm taken the piss JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah i do think that people take those tier lists *too* literally especially when building budget computers Muse#0557: Lowest end psu I'd go with is an 80+ from Evga, corsair Muse#0557: They aren't good Muse#0557: But they are bare minimum FantaStick#8008: I see way to many X PSU is not specified on list, or X PSU is only C tier don't buy unless you want a house fire Muse#0557: But you should get a be quiet for like a few bucks more FantaStick#8008: Need to check out the new EVGA white units FantaStick#8008: The w1s FantaStick#8008: Wonder if they're any better
Muse#0557: I don't mean buy one new but if you can find one locally for like 20 bones Muse#0557: Then it's serviceable FantaStick#8008: 20 bones FantaStick#8008: Got it FantaStick#8008: Problem is it's hard to have in depth analysis and review of every single PSU out there FantaStick#8008: So a lot of stuff isnt gonna be on that list JustinXenyx#8854: I personally think that people should invest more into PSUs when it comes to their computers, especially considering how long some of them might last FantaStick#8008: Yeah I see it as an investment thing, a good PSU, is like a good CPU cooler or a good case, you can keep reusing it for future builds JustinXenyx#8854: Exactly that FantaStick#8008: Sometimes though when the budget is really tight, it's easier to sacrifice *a little* on the PSU to keep yourself with a good CPU+Mobo+GPU, or to keep an ssd in the budget, etc. FantaStick#8008: Case by case basis, but generally if you have a good budget I recommend not overlooking the non performance related stuff FantaStick#8008: Or performance adjacent stuff rather Muse#0557: Imo buy a good case, power supply and storage Muse#0557: They can be reused for ages FantaStick#8008: Yeah
FantaStick#8008: Although I do like switching cases with every new build just to have a new build experience/a new look DarknessFalls229#2286: im still using a 2007 case so i can confirm that Bwenfwake#6869: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746462219344150669/unknown.png Bwenfwake#6869: I'm gonna see if I win this bid, hoping to accomodate the Xeon Phi with this Muse#0557: 4820k is a decent cpu Bwenfwake#6869: I don't need the CPU lol, just the mobo Bwenfwake#6869: Already got a whack CPU Bwenfwake#6869: However, if i chuck the 4820k into my current mobo I can probs get a really good overclock on it Muse#0557: 👍 Bwenfwake#6869: Maybe 4.6GHz all core? Bwenfwake#6869: defo 4.4GHz as I can do that with my current chip Bwenfwake#6869: And that has double the threads lol Flannel84#2980: Would a 550 watt psu be sufficient to overclock a Prescott Pentium 4 (3.2 GHz stock) and power a gtx 560 ti with ease? Currently 400 watt unit paired with that cpu and with a gt 545 yeilds very little positive gain in over clocking and it was determined that the psu is probably lacking. So does 550 watt give me enough overhead even with the updated gpu? Bwenfwake#6869: yes it does indeed Bwenfwake#6869: However, I would also have said that any decent 400W would also be fine so idk what is up there
leewake9705#9644: hey could someone help me with my asus rog g74sx laptop?

Bwenfwake#6869: No it does not mess with the drives at all Bwenfwake#6869: I presume you have never done a BIOS update/flash before leewake9705#9644: nope leewake9705#9644: i am very scared that i would mess something up so i never have Bwenfwake#6869: A lot of people make it sound scarier than it is, just make sure the laptop is plugged in and you'll be fine Bwenfwake#6869: Laptop are probably easier and less hassle to do as if they do lose mains power, at least they have battery power JustinXenyx#8854: > yes but its a high risk high reward thing i am readint the forum you sent i saw this persons first one but not thisone
It isn't a high risk thing, you really gotta fuck up to softbreak a bios update, especially on a laptop Bwenfwake#6869: ^ Bwenfwake#6869: I have done loads of BIOS updates, my current board uses a Modded BIOS and I've never had any issues leewake9705#9644: well the thing is the battery on this laptop i think went into undervoltage protection so the battery does nothing leewake9705#9644: and ok Muse#0557: Not having a Bios update is like not installing windows security updates leewake9705#9644: but since i am running the old version of the bios asus make a program that you can download on windows to flash it so i dont know if i should use that program or find it somewhere in the old aptio bio as it is not a gui it is just a regular grey and blue bios Muse#0557: It's just gonna cause issues leewake9705#9644: sorry about my typin becasue i have never typed on a 17in computer leewake9705#9644: but yes muse you are right leewake9705#9644: well mything is i dnt knw if the easyflash thingis in the bios or in the application becasue i think this laptop takes easyflash 2 Muse#0557: As long as you're plugged into power and not on low battery there's nothing to worry about leewake9705#9644: wellth battery does nothing in this computer, you pull the plug and its gone leewake9705#9644: the charging light will just always stay on butnothing happens Muse#0557: Just don't lose power while updating
Muse#0557: Then you're fucked leewake9705#9644: yeah leewake9705#9644: but my thing is if i were to flash the bios i dont know if i should use the one from asus or the one from the forum Muse#0557: Asus Muse#0557: Manufacturer obviously Muse#0557: For all you know that guy wants to mine with your pc leewake9705#9644: yeah leewake9705#9644: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746516102057558026/new_bios_i_would_need.PNG leewake9705#9644: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746516123452702891/i_dont_know_if_i_should_use_this.PNG leewake9705#9644: so there is the latest bios leewake9705#9644: but i dont know if i should use the windows bios or the bios flasher in the biosif there is one leewake9705#9644: but yeah i mean this is the nicest computer i have and i would hate to fuck it up with myown stupidity Bwenfwake#6869: use the BIOS flasher Bwenfwake#6869: for within Windows Bwenfwake#6869: They usually work better ngl
Flannel84#2980: One last thing, since my Pentium 4 is running windows 7 64 bit, it should (in theory) be capable of handling windows 10 right? Or is there a change in architecture that would prevent this? leewake9705#9644: No your Pentium 4 may not be able to run w10 because it might now have sse2 and pae which are the instructin sets needed to run w10 and plus I would stay on w7 with the classic thems so you aren't stressing the processor too much as if you are to install w10 the processor will be always maxed out leewake9705#9644: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746681570491891712/IMG_20200822_124524.jpg leewake9705#9644: Crap SuSSudio#2688: P4 has SSE 2.0 wdym leewake9705#9644: The first ones don't leewake9705#9644: I used one that didn't SuSSudio#2688: first ones did SuSSudio#2688: Well maybe not the very first one SuSSudio#2688: He didn't specify which P4 leewake9705#9644: Oh well yeah leewake9705#9644: But w10 on a p4 is no good SuSSudio#2688: Budget did a few vids on it, it runs 10, but absolutely crackers leewake9705#9644: Yeah leewake9705#9644: If your on w7 stay on it with the classic thems for a p4
leewake9705#9644: @Bwenfwake I can't update the bios within windows because it says it is made for asus notebook and i cant do it through the bios becasue there needs to be charge into the battery so yeah i have to find a battery that will ship to me somehow Bwenfwake#6869: @leewake9705 get a new battery then leewake9705#9644: @Bwenfwake https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746737835502993488/i_cant.PNG leewake9705#9644: i cant Bwenfwake#6869: That's pretty cheap ngl JustinXenyx#8854: Try updating without the battery and on AC only @leewake9705 leewake9705#9644: it wont let me leewake9705#9644: it says the battery needs to be plugged in and at 20% leewake9705#9644: and it will not continue without Bwenfwake#6869: Most laptops need a battery in them to update bios @JustinXenyx leewake9705#9644: the only problem is that they wont ship it as it says in the picture Bwenfwake#6869: Where in the world do ya live? leewake9705#9644: i live in germany but i am military so they give us special mailboxes for our stuff and one of the things they wont ship is batteries or anything with a battery besides phones Bwenfwake#6869: Huh Bwenfwake#6869: This... Is not ideal
leewake9705#9644: yeah JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah he lives in Ramstein, there is a military base there JustinXenyx#8854: APO is Army Post Office or something like that leewake9705#9644: well i live on the neighboring volgeweh but close enough Bwenfwake#6869: Are you able to get an exception for the battery? JustinXenyx#8854: Different idea: try to order something locally then Bwenfwake#6869: Actually tbf... You could ask a local shop if you could have it delivered to them leewake9705#9644: the only problem is i would need a german resident adress Bwenfwake#6869: And then ya can collect it from there Muse#0557: Most couriers do click and collect to local corner shops and lockers Bwenfwake#6869: Indeed leewake9705#9644: well my thing is the closest one to me is like 10 mins away but i dont know if they are open and if they speak english becasue i dont speak german Bwenfwake#6869: Tbf, most Germans speak English. Even if they don't someone close by will leewake9705#9644: yeah thats true JustinXenyx#8854: Also: Amazon Lockers are a thing
Bwenfwake#6869: ^ leewake9705#9644: yeah but only for germans JustinXenyx#8854: Dunno if there are any close/in Ramstein, but those are still a possibility JustinXenyx#8854: Well you can use amazon accounts no matter where you are JustinXenyx#8854: You could use a US amazon account to order in germany and so on leewake9705#9644: yeah well we have americian and german amazon accounts but they dont have as much stuff on the german amazon as they do the americian one leewake9705#9644: but i could look on the german one Bwenfwake#6869: All the same though.... You also don't *have* to use Amazon Bwenfwake#6869: There are likely other shops that will have the battery you need. leewake9705#9644: do you think this is sketchy https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746740419555229716/does_this_seem_sketchy.PNG Bwenfwake#6869: Nah leewake9705#9644: 35 euros tho JustinXenyx#8854: Probably even less sketchy than the amazon listing to be honest Bwenfwake#6869: I mean sure... It is green cell but they do make somewhat OK batteries Bwenfwake#6869: Just don't get a charger from greencell and you'll be fine
leewake9705#9644: dont wory i still have the asus delta 150w psu that came with the laptop Bwenfwake#6869: Good leewake9705#9644: but i mean i would have to see how this place would ship to me Bwenfwake#6869: Tbf, 4400mah battery is quite expensive at that price even leewake9705#9644: yeah leewake9705#9644: the og battery is 5200mah Bwenfwake#6869: Nah as in, I have bought 4400mah batteries for less than £20, I'd call 35 euro expensive leewake9705#9644: but really all i need is a bench power supply to trickle charge the battery until the computer can recognise it and then charge it leewake9705#9644: and ok Bwenfwake#6869: True true Bwenfwake#6869: Should be fine leewake9705#9644: yeah becasuse i dont know how long ago the battery was charged becasue i am the 2nd owner so yeah JustinXenyx#8854: 4400mah at 14.4V though @Bwenfwake JustinXenyx#8854: whole different level than just mAh count Bwenfwake#6869: I've honestly paid less for one at a higher voltage
Bwenfwake#6869: Still, it's not tit for tat aha leewake9705#9644: but ya leewake9705#9644: kinda in a dillie of a pickle Bwenfwake#6869: Nah there are ways around it like we've mentioned Bwenfwake#6869: Your choice as to how ya get it to ya leewake9705#9644: yeah leewake9705#9644: oops leewake9705#9644: alwyas look where you are typing before you do Muse#0557: Rip leewake9705#9644: im pretty sure this is fake https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/746743282486214706/im_pretty_sure_this_is_bad.PNG leewake9705#9644: this is on amazon germany @Bwenfwake leewake9705#9644: well i found one with reviews for 29,90 euros Bwenfwake#6869: Wish I could read German leewake9705#9644: me too Muse#0557: Looks low quality not fake
Flannel84#2980: @SuSSudio The Pentium 4 is the P4 HT 3.2E SL7QB. Should that have the right instruction set?
