Deleted User#0000: that is a valid thing that can happen Muse#0557: Well yes it will buy a 4790k is a solid 50% more expensive than a 3770k Deleted User#0000: since some emulators can get a boost from the AVX2 instructions Deleted User#0000: yeah Deleted User#0000: was gonna say that Deleted User#0000: Haswell is notoriously pricey SuSSudio#2688: I doubt i'm going i7 though, as this is a mid gap upgrade for me Deleted User#0000: oh and also, one small thing I will note Muse#0557: Then what's the point Muse#0557: The haswell i5s are under 10% faster than ivy Deleted User#0000: Dio, when you buy Haswell, buy the fastest DDR3 sticks you can find Deleted User#0000: Haswell loves fast memory Deleted User#0000: like, to the point where it does matter SuSSudio#2688: LGA 775 is just too old at this point. Haswell for me is something in the middle Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786210223022014505/DDR3-1600-Haswell-RAM-Benchmarks-1.jpg
Deleted User#0000: this is the RAM thing Deleted User#0000: I was talking about DarknessFalls229#2286: There are many steps between 775 and haswell Muse#0557: Everyone will agree that ivy value > haswell perf gains Deleted User#0000: yeah Deleted User#0000: it is Muse#0557: If you want to go for haswell go for it Deleted User#0000: unless you have a very specific niche for Haswell Muse#0557: But you won't really find any confirmation here Deleted User#0000: wouldnt recommend Charlie Foxtrot#9831: 4c/4t vs 2c/4t MythologicalZ#3752: 4130 will pull less power MythologicalZ#3752: probs why he wants it Deleted User#0000: I personally like Haswell since AVX2 reduces audio latency in music production applications......which is very much a niche thing. SuSSudio#2688: I'm aware i'm losing out in value if i go haswell
Deleted User#0000: also it boosts some emulators MythologicalZ#3752: still has the ipc and 2c fine for esports Deleted User#0000: but here is the question Deleted User#0000: what's the price of an i5-4590 there? Muse#0557: Go for whatever you want Muse#0557: Haswell obviously has advantages Muse#0557: But in my opinion they don't outweigh the loss in raw performance Muse#0557: You seem pretty set on what you want Deleted User#0000: I mean, I am a Haswell user that's going to crawl back to Sandy Bridge Deleted User#0000: soo, that points out one thing MythologicalZ#3752: lol wtf MythologicalZ#3752: 8 quid for a 4130 MythologicalZ#3752: get outta here MythologicalZ#3752: whole world isnt the uk MythologicalZ#3752: given the prices hes posted previously 40 is fine for haswell 2c
SuSSudio#2688: Fairly steep, at us$63 Muse#0557: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786211126697525309/Screenshot_20201209_124209_com.android.chrome.jpg Muse#0557: No stock :( SuSSudio#2688: Again, like i said earlier this is a mid gap upgrade, as i don't have the necessity to buy ram, psu, video card, & storages. MythologicalZ#3752: is that orange site still up with the deals MythologicalZ#3752: again whole world isnt the uk Deleted User#0000: how about a i3-4170 then? Muse#0557: We've been over that myth? MythologicalZ#3752: you dont get cex in the Philippines or wherever MythologicalZ#3752: then why post it Deleted User#0000: still will get a bit of a boost in clocks Muse#0557: Because i thought he was in the UK MythologicalZ#3752: :epicgamer: Muse#0557: And acknowledged he wasn't already? SuSSudio#2688: us$39
Deleted User#0000: yikes MythologicalZ#3752: only after I mentioned it MythologicalZ#3752: anyways MythologicalZ#3752: just get a 4130, there are barely any gains with the higher sku chips MythologicalZ#3752: you get a few 100mhz bumps that wont go much further SuSSudio#2688: I think you've seen me mentioning i live in asia Deleted User#0000: well, yeah in that case 4130 is a good choice Muse#0557: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786211768229560350/Screenshot_20201209_124437_com.discord.png Deleted User#0000: I just assumed you can find it for a similarish price, if so, go for them Muse#0557: Even in his market the 2400 is better lol Deleted User#0000: also Muse#0557: Just go for haswell though Deleted User#0000: about what instruction the Haswell i3 runs Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786211973808914452/unknown.png Muse#0557: If you're on a e8400 it's still a large upgrade
Deleted User#0000: screenshot from my CPU-Z MythologicalZ#3752: @SuSSudio how much is the 2400 even MythologicalZ#3752: you get some avx shit that wont matter Deleted User#0000: it matters, but not enough tbh MythologicalZ#3752: 2c will still drown Deleted User#0000: like I said Deleted User#0000: if you are going Haswell Deleted User#0000: you get a whole different set of issues MythologicalZ#3752: yeah msi h81 qc MythologicalZ#3752: otherwise its just another i3 Deleted User#0000: H81 is kinda trashy as a chipset ngl, and also I will note again: get the fastest RAM the board supports and run dual-channel MythologicalZ#3752: h81 is fine Charlie Foxtrot#9831: That shouldn't be too hard Deleted User#0000: it's fine, but it really depends on what you want for a feature set MythologicalZ#3752: and unless you go z series it'll be 1600 lock across most boards
Deleted User#0000: get H87 if you can Deleted User#0000: mainly for 4 RAM slots SuSSudio#2688: us$32 MythologicalZ#3752: compelling MythologicalZ#3752: if you can push the power draw over the i3 you may as well get that SuSSudio#2688: I won't touch B85 & up with haswell, value will be much worse. MythologicalZ#3752: nobody should because theyre dumb expensive for very few gains MythologicalZ#3752: 2d h series +4x2 1333 or whatever and sleep MythologicalZ#3752: can still run 1600 mems like the rest Deleted User#0000: I would still recommend to compare pricings of H87 vs H81 Deleted User#0000: it's that much better MythologicalZ#3752: yeah never a bad idea to compare prices SuSSudio#2688: This topic has kinda pushed me back to lga 1155 Deleted User#0000: if it's a couple of bucks difference Deleted User#0000: go for it
MythologicalZ#3752: but dont overpay for no reason MythologicalZ#3752: realistically if youre sticking to terascale a 4c wont make that much difference MythologicalZ#3752: main point is just to ditch 775 SuSSudio#2688: With lga 1155 here's what i can get : - Asrock B75m (us$39) - i5 2400 (us$32) - 4GB 1333mhz ddr3 stick (us$12.7) all used, although i'm heading more towards new for the 4gb stick to match up with my current one MythologicalZ#3752: not bad MythologicalZ#3752: ah you have ram around MythologicalZ#3752: yeah then its pretty nice Deleted User#0000: yeah, that is nice ngl MythologicalZ#3752: that asrock is alright too, plenty of sata and decent io SuSSudio#2688: So basically if i pick sandy, it will consume more or less the same power as my e8400
MythologicalZ#3752: either platform will smash 775 Deleted User#0000: but it will just be like, so so much of an improvement SuSSudio#2688: Yes indeed. I'm set on 7xx series mobo. MythologicalZ#3752: b75 too so out of box support for ivy MythologicalZ#3752: or well, first release ivy chips MythologicalZ#3752: probs will needs updates for the later stuff MythologicalZ#3752: but its asrock so you'll be fine support wise MythologicalZ#3752: yeah even has drivers for 10 Muse#0557: (You can buy a Celeron for pocket change to update the bios worst case scenario) MythologicalZ#3752: real asrock moment SuSSudio#2688: Lower power, newer tech, better IPC were my main goals for the haswell initially, but yeah unfortunately i will potentially suffer in perf/$. So yeah cheers for sharing your feedback on this matter. D.D.M#8226: So i found a gtx 1060 ti 6gb for sale on a selling site in my country for about 100€ converted from my country's money. D.D.M#8226: Good or bad?
D.D.M#8226: Its a gigabyte OC variant Deleted User#0000: That sounds reasonable for a 1060 D.D.M#8226: Guy said if i am planning to buy it he can drop the price 10 15€ Deleted User#0000: sounds more then reasonable to me, price wise Deleted User#0000: and Gigabyte is known for decent GPU's Deleted User#0000: from what I know Deleted User#0000: thats about how much my 1060 was Deleted User#0000: sounds like an alright price JustinXenyx#8854: or 1660Ti? 1060Ti does not exist JustinXenyx#8854: ah fuck lmao wrong ping JustinXenyx#8854: so, 1060, 1050Ti or 1660Ti? @D.D.M Deleted User#0000: He probably just meant a 1060 6GB Deleted User#0000: Since usually Ti models had more VRAM, and 1060 3GB existed as well Foxious#1859: I think they didint call it 1060 ti because it dosent ring well Foxious#1859: not like 1050, 1070, 1080
Foxious#1859: all ring well with "ti" JustinXenyx#8854: 1660Ti and 3060Ti would like to disagree JustinXenyx#8854: or 660Ti Foxious#1859: 660Ti dosent ring well imo Deleted User#0000: 😐 JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah but it shows that they don't give a fuck about that JustinXenyx#8854: There was just no marketspace for a 1060Ti JustinXenyx#8854: As Nvidia just proved again, xx60Ti cards are either great value or just stupid JustinXenyx#8854: Example: 1660Ti is a bit stupid, but the 3060Ti beats the 3070 in value D.D.M#8226: No i only knew that 1060s only had 3gb and 1060 tis have 6gb D.D.M#8226: And yeah its just a 1060 with 6gb vram JustinXenyx#8854: 1060Tis still don't exist JustinXenyx#8854: :Xdxdxd: D.D.M#8226: Lol SuSSudio#2688: 1060 6G is almost like 1660S of today
JustinXenyx#8854: nah the 1060 3GB is the one that nobody wanted D.D.M#8226: I first thought of a 1650 JustinXenyx#8854: except when crypto miners couldn't use the 1060 3GB for mining, that's when they had some practicality Foxious#1859: nothing really wrong with 3gb imo Foxious#1859: but they used to be alot cheaper here Foxious#1859: than the 6gb JustinXenyx#8854: It started becoming pretty much useless once games started using more than 4GB of memory Foxious#1859: nah JustinXenyx#8854: You need to compensate for the 1060 3GBs lack of VRAM in system RAM JustinXenyx#8854: try using a 1060 3GB in an 8GB system, it'll suffer big time D.D.M#8226: Well are 1060 6gb cards likely to be used by miners? Foxious#1859: if they use more vram than you have vram, most games have systems to compensate, other than virtual memory Foxious#1859: because my 2gb 1050 would have been otherwise buggered in 2019 JustinXenyx#8854: in a 16GB system it'll run alright but still not really how it should if it just had 6GB itself Foxious#1859: but my 1050 was in a system with single channel 2400mhz 8gb ram
Deleted User#0000: thing is Deleted User#0000: issue with 1060 3GB wasnt the VRAM Foxious#1859: before you say anything SuSSudio#2688: Ironic considering first 3GB card was introduced sometime between 2011-12, then in 2016 became affordable enough that games already started demand more than it Foxious#1859: im not defending small vram alright Deleted User#0000: it was how they got the VRAM to run Foxious#1859: large amount is always better Deleted User#0000: they just cut half the RAM chips off, halfing the bandwidth Foxious#1859: 3gb's real problem was that it had less cuda cores Foxious#1859: and the fact that rx 580 8gb was a thing Deleted User#0000: that's why a 1050 would smoke a 1060 3GB Foxious#1859: no Foxious#1859: just no Deleted User#0000: eh Deleted User#0000: it would
MythologicalZ#3752: its not just vram halved on the 1063 Deleted User#0000: pure power wise Foxious#1859: it had physically way less power MythologicalZ#3752: cut down to 1152 vs 1280 D.D.M#8226: Welp the market in my country is a bit of a mess D.D.M#8226: So i wouldn't trust used rx series cards Deleted User#0000: I am pretty sure I saw somewhere a 1050 beating the 1060 3GB Deleted User#0000: or was that the Ti variant D.D.M#8226: Yes D.D.M#8226: It did D.D.M#8226: Sometimes Foxious#1859: Ti maybe SuSSudio#2688: in some areas Foxious#1859: but no way in hell the normal 1050 Foxious#1859: 1050 has half the shading units and tmus
Foxious#1859: even Ti is lacking in those areas Foxious#1859: 1050 ti Shading Units 768 TMUs 48 ROPs 32 SM Count 6 Foxious#1859: 1060 3gb Shading Units 1152 TMUs 72 ROPs 48
SM Count 9 Deleted User#0000: yeah Deleted User#0000: how do old double-vram flagships hold up today like gtx 680 4gb/hd 7970 6gb Deleted User#0000: I just know that everyone I ever talked to said to avoid the 3GB like the plauge SuSSudio#2688: you mean both in xfire & sli? Deleted User#0000: no Foxious#1859: because in most places it was bad value @Deleted User Deleted User#0000: i mean most of the 680s and 7970s had 2gb and 3gb respectively Deleted User#0000: but there were some with 4 and 6 Foxious#1859: costing almost the same as the 6gb variant Foxious#1859: but still too much compared to the 1050ti Deleted User#0000: well Deleted User#0000: they are harder to find
SuSSudio#2688: HD7970 6G i believe still holds ground today, though you're forced to go into lower settings SuSSudio#2688: 680 on the other hand, kekler ded kittycat959#2895: its between a 560 and a 570 iirc Deleted User#0000: I would say the 680 4GB still would be fine kittycat959#2895: rx 560 and rx570 to clarify Deleted User#0000: in a lot of games, GTX 680 and higher would match around kittycat959#2895: the 680 is kepler so.... Deleted User#0000: a 1050 Foxious#1859: still want to get a 3gb because **BLOWER** https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786286529655209994/P_setting_fff_1_90_end_600.png Deleted User#0000: big coolers on short pcbs look weird SuSSudio#2688: it's been the trend as of late Deleted User#0000: closest benchmarks I found are for the 2GB cards Deleted User#0000: https://www.techspot.com/articles-info/1588/bench/BF1.png Deleted User#0000: like this one kittycat959#2895: the 1050 isnt great ngl
Deleted User#0000: anything about the 4GB model just Deleted User#0000: seems to be hard to find Deleted User#0000: it's a good "turn a prebuild into a gaming PC" card Deleted User#0000: i have one of these Deleted User#0000: since it only needs 75W Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786286973772890122/14-487-267-S99.png Deleted User#0000: it just werks Deleted User#0000: even if its tiny Deleted User#0000: that today has been stolen by the 1650 tho Deleted User#0000: with 20ish % more power Muse#0557: What has been stolen JustinXenyx#8854: your mom Deleted User#0000: 1050's spot for turning low power prebuilt PCs into gaming PCs Deleted User#0000: By the existence of a 1650 Muse#0557: That is typically how products work

JustinXenyx#8854: is the 9700k even a sensible upgrade from a 9400F though? RyuuKuro#7616: Hey guys can a burnt ram damaged a processor JustinXenyx#8854: That's quite a vague and specific question JustinXenyx#8854: The kind-of vague and short answer is: Depends MythologicalZ#3752: likely not since the board just wont post it JustinXenyx#8854: It depends on what happened Foxious#1859: @JustinXenyx well the I7 has alot more power than the I5 and can be overclocked JustinXenyx#8854: If the ram shorted out during use you might've killed a memory channel or the entire memory controller JustinXenyx#8854: "alot more" is quite the overstatement, OCing is a decent point though MythologicalZ#3752: oh yeah something like that could happen JustinXenyx#8854: however how much is it? that's the real important thing @Foxious Foxious#1859: well see in about 2 years Muse#0557: Honestly i wouldn't upgrade unless it's a 9900k mi3night#2562: yeah unless you live in the US market where a 9700k is like $200 MythologicalZ#3752: 9900k was 300 not long ago

The solder connections on the motor are good and the cable ohms out proper. Should I tear it apart a 3rd time and remove the blade assembly or is the motor just worn the f out. Never had a fan with a good bearing not work right, dont know whats up. Budget#8265: Sounds like resistance from the motor itself? Budget#8265: possibly JustinXenyx#8854: I'd take it apart and check the resistance @Alcyone JustinXenyx#8854: Might me that the motor is just shitting itself from age Alcyone#2233: ahh good idea, I'll check resistance at the terminals on the motor. thanks guys Alcyone#2233: tomorrow, already did the 17 screw dissasembly/assembly twice this morning Alcyone#2233: 6 years old, cant be angry at it

Well, 40 fps is better than 30 for sure, so I'll just stay on the look out, see if anything pops out.

You should, tho I am not sure if it's the battery or the machine having issues.
2. Yes Jackloco#9187: so i have had a short conversation with corsair that boiled down to, they do not give any control over fan curves to the user. note there is only one 140mm fan for the corsair pro i180 Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786822289915248640/unknown.png Jackloco#9187: my m.2s are cooking Jackloco#9187: i am about to buy passive coolers but i have looked in the custom bios and in ICUE but it seems the engineers made sure that the user can't touch their fan curves Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786822614319366154/unknown.png Jackloco#9187: Francois N (Corsair) Dec 10, 2020, 15:36 PST Hello , Unfortunately there is no way for you to change or edit the fan. Its controlled solely by iCUE and is locked by iCUE's fan curves. I forwarded your temps to our engineers and they decided these temps are fine. We went with these SSDs in particular because they have high thermal tolerances and are within the tested threshold.
The fan is reliant on the coolant temperature and should top out at 1450 RPM. If your temperature reaches 55C and the fan speed doesn't increase then that's problematic. Charlie Foxtrot#9831: For the SSD, well, you can put a thermal pad over them I think Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Or those metal encasings or plates Jackloco#9187: ye looks they are well used Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786822880544948234/unknown.png Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Did you buy a Corsair One? Jackloco#9187: ye Jackloco#9187: i180 Jackloco#9187: the tall grey one Jackloco#9187: i love it but just noticed after 6 hours of installing an m.2 that it's way too hot Jackloco#9187: i was thinking of choking the coolants or breaking one of the pins to have the fan at max constantly Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Hmmmmmmmmm Jackloco#9187: they haven't gotten back to me after i sent another screenshot but my m.2s idle at 55 and ramp up to 80 Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Hmmmmmmm
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: There is one program Jackloco#9187: is it the gecko one Charlie Foxtrot#9831: That's way too hot Jackloco#9187: ye thought so too Charlie Foxtrot#9831: The gecko what Jackloco#9187: well samsung magician said so Jackloco#9187: ye i was trying out tons of programs Jackloco#9187: iLink Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Have you touched on the SSD directly? Jackloco#9187: iTuner Jackloco#9187: wdym Jackloco#9187: like physically touched the m.2 underload? Jackloco#9187: it Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Yeah Jackloco#9187: it's difficult to have the comp on and have the side panels off, the radiators are in the frames
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: https://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?p=999689 Jackloco#9187: but the inside of the case is hot to the touch when i was figuring out why the m.2 wasn't working after an hour of pulling it in out of the riser and the riser from the pcie slot Charlie Foxtrot#9831: You are not alone lol Jackloco#9187: so the custom fan thing Jackloco#9187: funniest thing Jackloco#9187: it'll just switch back to default Jackloco#9187: furthermore, even when not leaving the menu and setting it to 100, it won't budge Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786824399926853682/unknown.png Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/786824486274990100/unknown.png Jackloco#9187: interesting enough, when i go under load the coolant gets hotter so the fan will spin up and cool off the m.2s Jackloco#9187: however i put my little artic cooler desk fan where it is inside the case Jackloco#9187: the fan case fan turned off because i was also cooling the cpu radiator down also Jackloco#9187: yeah the forum post you sent i read before, i was hoping it was only for the older i160 Jackloco#9187: but this is a good test to see how good these passive heatsinks are Jackloco#9187: gonna keep annoying them until the let the override go away

Jackloco#9187: can i put like a dumby power connector between so the fan is at full blast all the time? Alcyone#2233: just get a sata adapter Alcyone#2233: run the fan on 12v, bios might throw a fit about no cpu fan connected though if its the only one Jackloco#9187: apparenlty not considered a cpu fan Jackloco#9187: "auxiliary fan" Alcyone#2233: they locked the fan control in bios?

Jackloco#9187: first cpu side, second gpu side, third top view (m.2 in the middle) Jackloco#9187: cooking both m.2s yesa Jackloco#9187: corsair said idle temps of 50 to 60 is k Jackloco#9187: well 40 to 50 Abe.#3344: ^^^ is the performance difference that big? Jackloco#9187: pain https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787026131928350740/unknown.png Alcyone#2233: if that board is dual bios you could try flashing an asrock bios to the backup
Jackloco#9187: hmm DarknessFalls229#2286: you _could_ buy the thickest of thermal pads to let them make contact to the case Jackloco#9187: i have never flashed before Jackloco#9187: was thinking that darkness DarknessFalls229#2286: its stupid, but if it works... Jackloco#9187: settled with a laptop m.2 heat sink for the sandwich Jackloco#9187: and a full clamp for the rizer one DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, adhering a heatsink to it might work aswell Jackloco#9187: how do i know it's dual bios and or reflashable? DarknessFalls229#2286: but that means adhesive be used Jackloco#9187: eh Jackloco#9187: ill keep the sticker on the m.2 there DarknessFalls229#2286: theyre almost always metal stickers anyway Jackloco#9187: ye Jackloco#9187: im gonna double check where the main fan is connected
Jackloco#9187: gonna see if i can plug it in somewhere else for raw power Alcyone#2233: @Jacklocoits not dual bios, so flash is off the table for the average user Jackloco#9187: uh fuc Jackloco#9187: yeah idk what to do really Jackloco#9187: there is a bios button on the back of the motherboard Jackloco#9187: not sure what it does Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787027774166401045/unknown.png Alcyone#2233: the asrock bios should have fan presets in the ez mode and have a fan utlility in advanced>h/w monitor https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787027816251916318/unknown.png Alcyone#2233: that button on the io clears cmos settings Jackloco#9187: ah kk will not touch then Jackloco#9187: ill double check h/w tab Jackloco#9187: gonna do it now before anything else happens Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787029147531739146/20201211_135108.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787029148929228850/20201211_135054.jpg Jackloco#9187: Nothing on ez mode either Jackloco#9187: Looks like corsair really screwed up
DarknessFalls229#2286: wiiiiiiiiiiiiiide boi Jackloco#9187: Very Alcyone#2233: could be some funky way they have 2 aio running on a board with only 3 headers, this would be the setup for air cooled gpu and aio cpu https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787029271155179571/unknown.png DarknessFalls229#2286: but really in no tab you can change fan profiles?? Jackloco#9187: I'm pretty sure you're correct on the case fan Jackloco#9187: The cable comes out of their I think because it's not long Alcyone#2233: looks like there is nothing hooked up to cpu headers and the chassis fan is already going full speed at 3000 rpm Alcyone#2233: but 3000rpm also sounds like alot, maybe the chipset fan on the gpu is hooked to that Jackloco#9187: Might be the pump at 3000 rpm Alcyone#2233: ahh or the pump DarknessFalls229#2286: wait DarknessFalls229#2286: i may remember something Alcyone#2233: must be the pump, looks like the vrm cooler is powered by the gpu https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787029794914828328/unknown.png DarknessFalls229#2286: i think i remember someone saying that the preinstalled fan doesnt push enough air, so they replaced it with a different one Jackloco#9187: That's the gpu cooler side
Alcyone#2233: yeah I was just unsure of what device was at 3000rpm Jackloco#9187: The cpu also has power going to it Jackloco#9187: Tru Alcyone#2233: I think your aio pump is on chassis header and I dunno what the fan is powered from Jackloco#9187: No you were correct of the chassis fan on the top left of MB Jackloco#9187: I'm sure it's getting power from there Alcyone#2233: if you put aio on the cpu headers and the chassis fan on the chassis header it might help DarknessFalls229#2286: so the AIO pump is connected to the chassis fan connector? Alcyone#2233: looks like the chassis header is configured to run at full speed Jackloco#9187: It kinda jumps around Jackloco#9187: In icue it says 2000 Jackloco#9187: Bios reads 3000 to 3500 Jackloco#9187: I can try switching it around Alcyone#2233: 3000 seems right for an aio pump Jackloco#9187: However I'm afraid that if I switch the chassis fan low speed will be applied to the oump
Alcyone#2233: speeeds should show up on the hw monitor tab if devices are on the cpu headers Jackloco#9187: Is there a way to convert a 4 pin to a 3 pin so it loses control but keeps power? I can buy something since I already have lol Jackloco#9187: So move the chassis fan to another cpu header? Alcyone#2233: look at the pic I drew on Jackloco#9187: Ill look and see if those two on the bottom right are already populated Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787032287157157918/20201211_140508.jpg Jackloco#9187: Very interesting. The chasis fan cable comes out of the cpu pump Jackloco#9187: That's how they are controlling it DarknessFalls229#2286: perhaps put the aio pump into the CPU header and the chassis fan into the chassis fan header Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787032834849243166/20201211_140700.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787032836011720764/20201211_140717.jpg Jackloco#9187: Indeed there's a single tiny cable going from the chassis header to the pump Jackloco#9187: Probably for info DarknessFalls229#2286: weird Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787033850948878366/20201211_141119.jpg Jackloco#9187: It looks like these are the other fan ports
Jackloco#9187: Hmm maybe if I switch the pump controller to one of these Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787036126464442398/20201211_141736.mp4 Jackloco#9187: Can't fit it Jackloco#9187: Yeah I'll just email them everyday Jackloco#9187: Or maybe Jackloco#9187: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787036920101732363/20201211_142234.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/787036920785141820/20201211_142224.jpg Jackloco#9187: There are two connecters than I can reach Jackloco#9187: Can I plug a 4 pin into one of those? DarknessFalls229#2286: those arent fan headers? Jackloco#9187: Idk how much power goes over sata nor do I know what bios-ph pins do Deleted User#0000: if u want to be ghetto you could get a 12v wall adapter for 99 cents from goodwill and run a few fans off that Jackloco#9187: Ghetto might be the only way to save my m.2s because corsiar told me to fuck off Jackloco#9187: The fan headers are behind the data riser board Jackloco#9187: I can't reach them even with pliers Jackloco#9187: As I showed with the vid

Alcyone#2233: I would be weary of flashing an oem pc with a standard bios Jackloco#9187: Good idea Alcyone#2233: maybe contact support and see if it is possible first Jackloco#9187: I'll reword it this time then Alcyone#2233: if the board is not dual bios and bricks, a usb programmer and a 2nd pc is the only way to get ir running again at home Jackloco#9187: Heh Jackloco#9187: Good to know
Jackloco#9187: How long do u think these m.2s will last at such high idles. Two years? Alcyone#2233: maybe forever Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/386696225740685323/549122908111503373/20190223_215730.jpg this is what it looks like when you have to recover a bios with no laptop. getting to the bios chip on your system might not even be possible with the board in the case Jackloco#9187: Omg Jackloco#9187: I knew there's a good reason to be scared of bios updates Alcyone#2233: if the bios chip isnt removeable, you have to take the cpu out and use a test clip on the chip which can be fiddly to get good contact Alcyone#2233: cpu has to come out as the usb flasher is powered and sends 3.3-5v into the board Jackloco#9187: Hmm sounds like cpr Alcyone#2233: it is Jackloco#9187: wild Alcyone#2233: the proper software for CH341A can also be hard to find and isnt that user friendly Jackloco#9187: yeesh Jackloco#9187: i guess ill just yell at corsair when my m.2s burn out then i guess lol?
Jackloco#9187: thank you so much for the help tho Jackloco#9187: is there like a member upvote system or donation?

Hopefully it's just a rebrand of the normal Asrock lineup Alcyone#2233: it looks like a bog standard X299E-ITX Alcyone#2233: I think corsair might have just specced a bios with less options exposed Alcyone#2233: The fan cable setup on that overpriced pc is wonky af though and I would expect so much more for that kind of money. Jackloco#9187: ye fan cable is somehow controlled by the cpu water block Jackloco#9187: i think almost everything inside is more custom than i assumed to be zwect#1210: so zwect#1210: guys
zwect#1210: my pc gives up 4 blue boxes zwect#1210: that are like zwect#1210: glitching blue pixels zwect#1210: on the display, rtx and sum zwect#1210: i've ran cyberpunk and it happened, last time was on gta 5 a month ago and on detroit become human zwect#1210: now i've tried Furmark at the max settings and it didn't appear zwect#1210: what is that? Shakthi#1486: Hey i have a laptop that has a amd e1-6010 apu with r2 graphics.i'm planning to setup a external graphics card to the laptop.So,what graphics card I should use ?🤔🤔 Foxious#1859: E1 Foxious#1859: i believe i have had one of those Foxious#1859: a celeron pretty much aint it? Foxious#1859: i would get a cheap GTX 750 or a GT 1030 personally, if we are talking about the celeron perfomance cpu here Shakthi#1486: Thanks 😃😃 Foxious#1859: no probs D.D.M#8226: Nah
D.D.M#8226: A 710 Razorsz#5056: the GTX 750 cards are bloated up in price imo since at the time is was a bang buck card, 1030 is over priced, i would say a GT610 is probs a decent offering to go with, considering how weak that 10W chip is, my core2duo e7400 was bottlenecked by a GT610 in my use cases, but its cheap ish and should go well with it, youll likely get a 720p low 30fps experience like my e7400 n gt 610 did @Shakthi Razorsz#5056: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Zotac-GT610-Synergy-Edition-1GB-DDR3-ZT-60602-10L-GPU-Graphics-Card-Tested/203112550563?hash=item2f4a7390a3:g:-AMAAOSwsnBfacNK https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Zotac-GT610-Synergy-Edition-1GB-DDR3-ZT-60602-10L-GPU-Graphics-Card-Tested/283956759463?hash=item421d244ba7:g:broAAOSw99hfGVZq Razorsz#5056: LP and full height one to consider, mines a 2GB model but these are a £20 ish option, they do OC a little bit too but you wont need to, should be alright for the 2 core e1-6010 Foxious#1859: Yes but a 610 is not that usual if you know what i mean Foxious#1859: something like a 750 will have support Razorsz#5056: irrc mine has support since its a display adapter, compared to fermi for eg Razorsz#5056: but if im honest, it doesnt matter that much, when your hardware is that weak to have some optimisation to claim a few frames in a game, youe not playing cyberpunk on this lmao so any optimisations towards that aint gonna do shiz Razorsz#5056: a 10W chip really cant do much with itself, i wouldnt recommend a GT210, cuz u can get a 610 for same price and itll have some headroom so you can put more load on the gpu and not the cpu inside Charlie Foxtrot#9831: AMD E1 Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Chrome is probably gonna choke on that thing Razorsz#5056: **E** Razorsz#5056: exactly, id pair it with a GT210 but you aint likely to game lmao, the GT610 will just help with video playback
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Literally the N3450 will punt kick it Razorsz#5056: the optiplex machine i made for my parents does 1080p 30fps with the GT210 n e7400 Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Or any cheap Celerons and Pentiums Razorsz#5056: but yeah that 610 is cheap so y not .w. Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Or Core 2 Duos for God's sake Razorsz#5056: itll scorch my n450 tho :haha: Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Ouchie ouch Foxious#1859: how bout something like a GT 430 Charlie Foxtrot#9831: If it's significantly cheaper than the GT 610, then yes Razorsz#5056: ill try n find a listing but eh, depends what this dood tryna do Razorsz#5056: ill look for listings Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Otherwise there's not much point Razorsz#5056: i got my 2GB synergy GT610 off my mate for £5 Razorsz#5056: s c o r e Charlie Foxtrot#9831: The 610 is newer and more capable at decoding videos I think
Razorsz#5056: yeah its nice Charlie Foxtrot#9831: But shit all the same Charlie Foxtrot#9831: :haha: Razorsz#5056: the GT210 struggles doign 60fps 720p n 1080p Razorsz#5056: the gt610 does it fine Razorsz#5056: 210 struggles to play source games, the gt610 will do an alright job Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Speaking of which Charlie Foxtrot#9831: The external GPU connector is like, $50 Razorsz#5056: hahah the GT430 is £10 more on ebay Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Why not buy a new laptop at this point Charlie Foxtrot#9831: If he's using those mini PCIe ones Razorsz#5056: tbh yeah .w. but ye g610 best bet, use one of those mini pci-e to full dock thangs Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Like on LowSpecGamer Razorsz#5056: i should do it on my n450, i think the 3150 media accel graphics are weaker than the atom, tho the lack of cache chokes the atom, maybe i should buy a cheap dock and use my GT210 on it, see how performance goes Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Oh boy
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: I sense a whole lot of misery and trouble Charlie Foxtrot#9831: The N450 is probably gonna be like: *end my suffering* Razorsz#5056: i played unreal gold on it :'3 tho its bugged where dynamic lighting keeps turning on so my smooth 60fps gets jmps down to 22fps, which is annoying Razorsz#5056: i mean, it is, i have win7 on it, and i plan to do an ISO of it then use rufus cuz ive made so many tweaks to it, gonna get some used 64GB ssd, dont need huge storage Razorsz#5056: its "usable" Razorsz#5056: but i kinda like laughing at struggling hardware, and i like using something/re-purposing it that someone else would throw out Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Hey can you send your profile pic here? I want to "experiment" with it a little bit Razorsz#5056: mine? Razorsz#5056: my cat? ~~Rest in peace~~ Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Yeah Razorsz#5056: its on my google photos or sumthin, hhhh Razorsz#5056: i dont use that shite anymore xdd, why wut u wanna do with it Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Wanna try and improve it a little with AI upscaling and denoising Razorsz#5056: tis an effect from my samsung galaxy tab 2, i like it, shame that tablet suddenly died :V Razorsz#5056: gave it to my uncle, said they couldnt fix it, never saw it again xd

Razorsz#5056: yeah, stomach tumour bursted, lead to spinal problems n neuron disease, was throwing up stomach blood n acids that burned her lips, tongue n gums, the side of her cheek had actually torn cuz the acid had worn thru it, wasnt fun having her on my lap for a while in that state, any patting would set her nerves off n she'd have a seizure so we legit had to wait for her body to give up poor thing, e put a cover over her to stop the light effecting her and eventually she passed Razorsz#5056: think she was 13 y/o Razorsz#5056: she really didnt want to go, always wanted cuddles but we couldn't she had a really bad one n fell off the chair onto the floor when i was asleep Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Sorry to hear that. Razorsz#5056: tis fine, just kinda nnoying how my dog has pulled a muscle on her front leg or been a bit too excited and hurt her back a little, someone also broke thru my postage for money today aswell so yeah, 2020 is just, hhh, im going to launch it on a trebuchet into space

zwect#1210: driver or game issues? zwect#1210: also they were small as a mouse cursor zwect#1210: so not big checkerboard shit zwect#1210: and i think detroit only had huge graphical glitches, it didnt have those squares so may be game problem D.D.M#8226: I feel sorry for you raz zwect#1210: wow, what happened..

zwect#1210: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/gigabyte-rtx-2070-gaming-3x-oc.b6184 xmassguy#1303: I have an older i5 3450 cpu based computer with a 120 gb ssd and 8gb of ram I would like to convert it into a computer to hoast a farm sim server what do yall recommend I upgrade I know I need to install more ram but im looking to see what cpu I should go with also I have an xfx 570 2gb I would put in it xmassguy#1303: farm sim 19 minimum requerments are i3-2100t 4gb of ram and a gtx 650 or a radeon hd 7770 DarknessFalls229#2286: well, since youre planning to run a server get something with high clockspeeds and much ram DarknessFalls229#2286: so basicly an i7 3770, 8GBs more RAM and the game hosted on Ethernet and nice fast storage as an SSD would do good i reckon xmassguy#1303: Ok so your sayin get the best cpu the mobo will handle and as much ram as I can afford or that maxes out the chip set DarknessFalls229#2286: or what fits in your budget xmassguy#1303: yep DarknessFalls229#2286: like just 8GBs more ram is already pretty decent DarknessFalls229#2286: as i7's are usually expensive xmassguy#1303: do you think that would run better than my current pc with an fx 8350 black 24gb of ram 16 usable 1tb hdd and a 1060 6gb DarknessFalls229#2286: well the thing is DarknessFalls229#2286: the fx 8350 has terrible IPC DarknessFalls229#2286: as IPC is what games and servers almost always love DarknessFalls229#2286: so, aside from the amount of threads, its not a good server CPU
DarknessFalls229#2286: the rest is top kittycat959#2895: and dreadful core to core latency DarknessFalls229#2286: ah yeah that too xmassguy#1303: ok so if I sell my pc parts mand go to ryzen from the fx for my main rig and upgrade the i5 in the other pc then it would be a decent set up DarknessFalls229#2286: sure, but once again, upgrading the i5 pc to 16GBs of ram is already great DarknessFalls229#2286: i do recommend ryzen as a replacement of your FX machine xmassguy#1303: yep also I could take my ddr3 from my main rig and put it with the i5 and have that set up as a server too xmassguy#1303: if I go to ryzen would my 1060 6gb perform better aswell? because right now in my games task mgr says my gpu is pegged at 95 to 100% usage with 50 on the cpu DarknessFalls229#2286: YES DarknessFalls229#2286: with a CPU with better IPC and clockspeed you will get higher FPS, better 1% and 0.1% lows xmassguy#1303: Great DarknessFalls229#2286: especially those framedips and frametime consistency will become better xmassguy#1303: ok so if I upgrade to a ryzen 1600af or better I wount need to upgrade my gpu with it DarknessFalls229#2286: yup xmassguy#1303: ok thank you for the help
DarknessFalls229#2286: no prob xmassguy#1303: what is the difference between fclga1155 an lga1155 DarknessFalls229#2286: no idea but probably not significant xmassguy#1303: ok i didn't see anything on google about it but that i5 I have is fclga as long as i can put lga in that socket it should be fine Razorsz#5056: @zwect i would honestly go for a driver reinstall, i faintly remember something similar happening to me in GTA V and a reinstall fixed things zwect#1210: oh ok Razorsz#5056: weeelp to make 2020 even worse, my uncle just died in hospital, he went in for some checkup, then caught covid whilst he was staying there, was gonna go visit, no point now ._. mi3night#2562: F Razorsz#5056: tf u mean F mang mi3night#2562: Press f to pay respects Razorsz#5056: :Fish1::Fish2::Fish3: Razorsz#5056: cant pay when your broke :Hahahahaha: mi3night#2562: https://tenor.com/view/press-f-pay-respect-coffin-burial-gif-12855021 Charlie Foxtrot#9831: OMG.

D.D.M#8226: Nvm D.D.M#8226: Get ryzen xmassguy#1303: my plan for i5 pc was tp make it into a farm sim server and upgrade mine to ryzen eventually along with upgrading the i5 mi3night#2562: What ram do u have xmassguy#1303: I also have my old fx 6300 and my old gtx 760 mi3night#2562: Some ddr3 ram are worth more than ddr4 lol mi3night#2562: Especially the B die dom plats xmassguy#1303: i dont have any name brand ram D.D.M#8226: Well like you said D.D.M#8226: Keep i5 pc for a server or smth D.D.M#8226: And upgrade main pc to a ryzen D.D.M#8226: You can sell the fx xmassguy#1303: ok now would it be chaper to upgrade the i5 to a better lga 1155 cpu as a mid ground between fx and ryzen if i dont have or cant get all of the money for ryzen and use the upgraded i5 pc as a main xmassguy#1303: for a temperairy pc mi3night#2562: i mean it sounds good tbh
xmassguy#1303: aslong as i could find a decent budget i7 D.D.M#8226: Well i think that fx still performs outstandingly so you wouldn't need to perform alot more upgrades xmassguy#1303: yea i just want to get better performance out of my other parts D.D.M#8226: Oh D.D.M#8226: Well D.D.M#8226: i7 for 1155 board D.D.M#8226: In the longrun xmassguy#1303: yea my plan would be to sell the fx 6300 i have and my current 8350 along with the i5 to upgrade to i7 and use that until i mcan get ryzen D.D.M#8226: Yeah sounds good xmassguy#1303: one last thing what do you recomend for an i7 to upgrade the 1155 i5 to D.D.M#8226: Well best all round is the 3770 k D.D.M#8226: You can pick em up for reasonable prices xmassguy#1303: and that should perform better than i5 obviously and comperble to an fx 6300? D.D.M#8226: Yes xmassguy#1303: ok
D.D.M#8226: And maybe better than the fx 6300 D.D.M#8226: Since its newer xmassguy#1303: alright so that should be a good server pc for farm sim or mincraft and would you recomend i buy that i7 and sell all my fx stuff and use that until i can afford ryzen> D.D.M#8226: :thonkpad: D.D.M#8226: Well look i dont know much about the fx line, so maybe someone else will tell you something so i dont give bad advice xmassguy#1303: ok xmassguy#1303: thank you for the help xmassguy#1303: would it be better to use my old gtx 760 for the 1155 server pc or my xfx rx 560 both are 2gb varients read bio/description#8459: theres no rx 650 xmassguy#1303: my bad 560 Alcyone#2233: @mi3night W8 a minute here, 8350s sell for more than a 2700K does. What has this world came to. Alcyone#2233: You know what. I think Phenom II x6 might also sell for more than an 1155 i7 JustinXenyx#8854: He is using eBay to judge prices, which is obviously a horribly inflated metric for anything The United States Air Force#7904: by the time you make enough from mining am5 will be out and am4 mobos and cpus will be dirt cheap Alcyone#2233: ebay sold listings is what I base all my values on
Alcyone#2233: you can knock off 13% if you want to get actual money recieved The United States Air Force#7904: hmm The United States Air Force#7904: wait so ur saying my 1.06 dolla gpu bundle only gave the seller like 87 cents cuz taxes and shit JustinXenyx#8854: Not because of taxes The United States Air Force#7904: makes sense JustinXenyx#8854: the 13% are purely eBay and PayPal fee The United States Air Force#7904: I included tax The United States Air Force#7904: thats what I paid overall The United States Air Force#7904: 1 dollar plus 6 cents tax The United States Air Force#7904: damn Alcyone#2233: paypal takes 3% off the top just to tranfer funds then you get billed for 10% of the sales price later, seller fee. Alcyone#2233: ebay says its just 10% fee, but who owns paypal? its kinda scammy JustinXenyx#8854: eBay hasn't for 5 years @Alcyone JustinXenyx#8854: Which is why they dropped PayPal as a payment processor some time ago
