Sorry kittycat959#2895: Basically over drive puts stupid high amounts of current into the pixels to change them quicker kittycat959#2895: And as a result you get off colours

Racey#8574: The thumbnail hurts read bio/description#8459: is that a fury nano kittycat959#2895: Yes kittycat959#2895: Decent gpu tbf read bio/description#8459: anyone with a fury nano is better than the verge Illegal Immigrant#3366: I got a question, is it smarter to buy a prebuilt pc for a higher graphics card? I know right now, graphics cards are running high prices, so i figure it would just make sense to get a whole pc for a moderate price in the low to mid $2,000 range. (since it has like, 10 times the build quality of mine anyways, along with clean cable management) So, I ask, since im mainly doing this for the graphics card itself, is it worth the investment? (though a new pc is probably in order, due to my pc being a solid 4 years old. I wont be getting rid of it however, i'd like to use it for a server host or something) read bio/description#8459: that might actually not be that bad of an idea if the price is good overall read bio/description#8459: just keep in mind that some prebuilts have low quality high end gpus, like this one: read bio/description#8459: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssqYleBjPIw Illegal Immigrant#3366: Yeah, i would be looking out for that. My brothers pretty smart with tech, i would have him assist me, along with maybe coming into here for assistance aswell Oma#4564: yeah Silentdragon#6383: okay let's do this again in here where it belongs apparently my friends PC keeps shutting itself off randomly, but it doesn't turn back on by itself, she has to do it manually it's brand new, Ryzen 5 5600X, Gigabyte B550M Aorus Pro-P, 550W BeQuiet System Power PSU, only used component is her old RX 470 which was working fine before
I assume it's either the PSU or something's overheating? Because AFAIK a faulty RAM module or anything of the sort would cause the computer to reboot, not just shut off, as that's normally some kind of protection mechanism Silentdragon#6383: or am I possibly missing something Silentdragon#6383: I hate having to troubleshoot PCs from afar because it's so damn easy to miss the obvious 😅 Alcyone#2233: if acpi settings are set to power off and not last state, it might just stay off when it shutsdown because of a fault Alcyone#2233: Id check to make sure all the cables are fully seated and locked in, temps are not hitting tjmax and that there is no extra standoffs under the mobo it doesnt have a hole for Silentdragon#6383: ok the last one can be excluded, I had to walk her through building it on the phone and it turned out that she's actually missing two standoffs, on the far right of the MoBo (because that's where the least amount of stress should be on the board if they're missing) Silentdragon#6383: I'm having her monitor temps right now, if that's not it I'll ask her to check the cables Silentdragon#6383: would it be a good idea to try and disable XMP? Because while personally I've never had RAM go bad, another friend of mine recently had that issue with her PC (though hers would bluescreen) Alcyone#2233: ram fault will usually cause a bsod Silentdragon#6383: yeah that's what I thought, okay Alcyone#2233: will get kernel or memory management error code and restart Alcyone#2233: straight power off is usually temps or a short/ bad connection Alcyone#2233: psu could be at fault or being overdrawn if its some trash psu with a dubiously factual spec sheet Silentdragon#6383: I remember she had a lot of trouble getting the CPU power connector plugged in because the case and cooler were in the way, maybe it's not seated properly Silentdragon#6383: she's not going to like it though if I tell her to do that again :Oof:
Alcyone#2233: sometimes just not being fully locked in can cause high enough resistance to trip ocp Silentdragon#6383: yeah because it's a BeQuiet Pure Power unit, nothing fancy but also certainly not trash Alcyone#2233: remove as many variables as possible than start trying parts swaps Alcyone#2233: be quiet should be fine, its not some off brand Alcyone#2233: even if its not a high end unit. I use an old xigmatek psu and its good enough to power a system and not catch fire Alcyone#2233: shorts/poor connections and thermals is where I would look first Silentdragon#6383: yeah and I mean it's a Ryzen 5 5600X and an RX 470, it should hardly be a challenge for a decent 550W PSU Alcyone#2233: yeah that is like 300-350w tops if you were running prime and heaven at the same time Silentdragon#6383: yeah okay if it's not temps I'll have her check the CPU power connector she'll hate it but what can I do, I'm not the one who plugged it in in the first place :Oof: 😂 Alcyone#2233: probably 250w or less in normal gaming Alcyone#2233: I use big air coolers, the eps is dead to me after I install the heatsink Silentdragon#6383: yeah well I usually put on the heatsink before installing the motherboard inside the case but most of the cases I work with aren't mATX Silentdragon#6383: it's kind of a pain either way Silentdragon#6383: good thing I had her buy thermal paste "just in case we ever needed to unmount the CPU cooler again" 🙈
Alcyone#2233: I like to do thet too, my method is to pull the eps cable out as much as I can and hook it up while I am sliding the board in. Alcyone#2233: mine is so tight though you have to install the board and cables before the cooler Charlie Foxtrot#9831: @Silentdragon Have you check her CPU's voltage under load? Silentdragon#6383: no but everything is stock are Ryzen stock voltage issues still a thing? Silentdragon#6383: I do remember that some boards had the tendency to set the voltages a tad high, but would that cause stability issues? Charlie Foxtrot#9831: If the voltage is too high too much power could be drawn and affects the PSU Gamefreak924#5901: is there any way to force nvidia drivers to work with a version of windows that is unsupported?

mi3night#2562: 960 evo mi3night#2562: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/800919103568871434/unknown.png mi3night#2562: well like a cheaper OEM version of 960 evo Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Unfortunately no I think Charlie Foxtrot#9831: The laptop will see 2 Windows installations Gamefreak924#5901: nevermind that, I figured it out, but now Gamefreak924#5901: 'This app can't run because it causes security or performance issues on Windows" for ccleaner. How do I remove the prompt from ever showing up again? Gamefreak924#5901: windows updates suck Gamefreak924#5901: Someone @ me when Linux becomes full compatible with all Windows applications Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Do not use CCleaner Charlie Foxtrot#9831: It's bad software Yuuki#4509: Sooo... I got a free Sound Blaster Z today. Is it worth it to plug into my current motherboard? I have a MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus Yuuki#4509: I legit don't know what to do with this Silentdragon#6383: well I mean the Sound Blaster Z is a decent sound card but by no means an audiophile solution Silentdragon#6383: I have one
Silentdragon#6383: if you're using something like a USB headset it obviously wouldn't help at all and otherwise... I doubt you'd notice a difference really Silentdragon#6383: but technically it should have higher audio quality still than the Realtek ALC892 chip your motherboard has so it wouldn't hurt to plug it in I suppose Yuuki#4509: Oki. I might as well use it Yuuki#4509: Gonna test it rn Yuuki#4509: Thanks for the reply btw Silentdragon#6383: no problem 😄 D.D.M#8226: hey guys, so not too long ago i started getting a bsod on startup with the stop code dpc watchdog violation, and this happens exactly every 2 days D.D.M#8226: any ideas? JopeSane#2283: hmm I got those while ago JopeSane#2283: do you have a wifi usb stick? JopeSane#2283: @D.D.M JopeSane#2283: I had one that caused those issues in two pcs JopeSane#2283: and had to update driver for it D.D.M#8226: @JopeSane also i forgot to mention its a laptop and its practically brand new JopeSane#2283: Well most likely driver issue
JopeSane#2283: Have you ran the issue throu whocrashed? JopeSane#2283: It's a program that looks at the error logs and can point out potential causes D.D.M#8226: no ima download it and see jojosensei#4198: Any good cheap 3200 ram to advice ? Silentdragon#6383: I've always bought G.Skill Aegis when it comes to cheap RAM, but that seems to have spiked in price recently Silentdragon#6383: but if price is the main concern I'd just buy whatever is cheapest. Just pay attention to the timings, you don't really want to end up with something like CL22 instead of CL16 jojosensei#4198: I don't find anything under 65 euros DarknessFalls229#2286: well then lower your standards or go used Silentdragon#6383: yeah prices have spiked around new years eve apparently Silentdragon#6383: 16GB DDR4-3200 used to be around €50 but now it seems to be €15 more DarknessFalls229#2286: i bought my 3000 mhz aegis kit at like 55 euro DarknessFalls229#2286: but that was last year Silentdragon#6383: yeah RAM was crazy cheap for a while DarknessFalls229#2286: somehow didnt feel so cheap Silentdragon#6383: realistically it was only a matter of time before prices went back up though
DarknessFalls229#2286: but compared to current prices hell yeah it was Silentdragon#6383: but it still doesn't really make sense to go with anything less than 3200MHz because the price difference is basically nonexistent jojosensei#4198: I would have gone used it it wa cheaper jojosensei#4198: But it's generally the price of new Silentdragon#6383: yeah it's slightly cheaper if anything, something like 5-10€ less than new Silentdragon#6383: RAM doesn't really age so the value doesn't change a lot I guess jojosensei#4198: I've seen 2x4 for 25 so the lower I found Silentdragon#6383: well I'm afraid if you need more RAM now you have no choice but to pay the current price it's questionable whether DDR4 will ever get cheaper again anyway, with DDR5 being somewhat on the horizon and hey, at least it's nowhere near as bad as with GPUs :Oof: jojosensei#4198: Yep have you heard about Patriot Memory Viper Steel Series ? jojosensei#4198: Never seen them before Silentdragon#6383: Never had Patriot RAM myself but the company has been around for a long time jojosensei#4198: Does it has good reviews ? Silentdragon#6383: oh the site I'm checking - yes
Silentdragon#6383: it's hard to go wrong with RAM anyway, I'm sure the kits are fine DarknessFalls229#2286: its when you start overclocking ram when it starts to matter what kind of chips you have DarknessFalls229#2286: so as long as the XMP profile has decent speed and timings itll be fine Kacpreusz#7656: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/801501918417518602/image0.jpg Kacpreusz#7656: Vaio SVE15 broken hinge mounts in the screen part Alcyone#2233: Agreed. If you are just going to run xmp, the exact IC doesn't matter too much. Only way to make an oopsie is to get single rank 16gb dimms for anything but the latest chipsets jojosensei#4198: Which one is best DDR4 3000c15 or 3200 c16 ? Alcyone#2233: they are the same latency, 3200 is a bit higher bandwidth so 3200 16 Alcyone#2233: CL/(memory speed)*2000=first word latency JopeSane#2283: I assume if I have reference 6800XT installed and swap it to AIB 6800XT, I don't have to update drivers? DarknessFalls229#2286: correct DarknessFalls229#2286: but my question is DarknessFalls229#2286: where are you getting these 6800XTs from? Xbox 360 1953#2640: the store JopeSane#2283: bought reference card used
JopeSane#2283: and the AIB I ordered 3 minutes after it was released JopeSane#2283: and I was waiting for it for almost 2 months DarknessFalls229#2286: bought it used, so bought it at a premium? JopeSane#2283: yes JopeSane#2283: and someone is coming to buy it tomorrow DarknessFalls229#2286: hopefully not at a loss DarknessFalls229#2286: as GPU prices are fucked JopeSane#2283: nope, actually at 50 euros profit DarknessFalls229#2286: hah nice JopeSane#2283: Don't really want to scalp but now I sold it at same price I paid for the AIB JopeSane#2283: paid 850 originally JopeSane#2283: sold for 900 JopeSane#2283: and 900 for the AIB DarknessFalls229#2286: damn, nice JopeSane#2283: well 900 + 10 postage
JopeSane#2283: Another question, If I have drivers for example for GTX670, will they work for 760? JopeSane#2283: as in do the driver packages include multiple drivers? DarknessFalls229#2286: i think so usually mi3night#2562: @Alcyone do u think intel 10nm superfin and clock as high as skylake Kacpreusz#7656: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/801600324933517312/image0.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/801600325395677215/image1.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/801600325756125234/image2.jpg Kacpreusz#7656: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/801600498318180372/image0.webp Muse#0557: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/801617543612727366/Frobots_GPU_Hierarchy.png Muse#0557: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/801617571128410152/unknown-55.png Muse#0557: Priorities Budget#8265: Pinned a message.

Muse#0557: 3700x has a better upgrade path Muse#0557: @Luv(Sic) Luv(Sic)#6984: __AMD__ £590.00 AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 16 GB (2x8 GB Corsair DDR4 3200 MHz) Gigabyte X570 x AMD AM4 X570 ATX __Intel__ £710.00 i7 10700K 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 Gigabyte Z490 UD ATX Which would ya pick?

Luv(Sic)#6984: 80% gaming, 10% cad, 10% using chrome with games sometimes Muse#0557: Price is the biggest factor imo Luv(Sic)#6984: updated Luv(Sic)#6984: What's the pick? mi3night#2562: @Luv(Sic) i pick AMD Muse#0557: AMD easily mi3night#2562: the difference between 3700x and 11700k aint that major considering you're paying £120 more Luv(Sic)#6984: I've spoken to a few people and everyones said AMD Luv(Sic)#6984: Aside from what I suggested, if you were going to pair a MOBO/RAM/CPU combo with a 1080 what would you choose? Muse#0557: I would go with the amd you suggested Muse#0557: Maybe something 5000 series if you have the money and can find stock mi3night#2562: if you somehow can find a 5600x for 300 euros thats good too mi3night#2562: but good luck mi3night#2562: i only recommend intel nowadays is if you have a good cooler already and if you get a super good price mi3night#2562: otherwise i just recommend everyone to go with amd
Luv(Sic)#6984: I've spoken to 4 other people besides you two and they all said the AMD bundle Luv(Sic)#6984: Thank you so much mi3night#2562: no problem The United States Air Force#7904: Hmm read bio/description#8459: eyo read bio/description#8459: gtx 980 or rx 580 4gb read bio/description#8459: same price Charlie Foxtrot#9831: 580 Charlie Foxtrot#9831: I think "Cobs"#1150: depends if you need cuda or can put up with AMD drivers :HEEEEEEEEEEEEEE: read bio/description#8459: idk read bio/description#8459: do i need cuda?

Russeus#7752: sorry if this statement is incorrect. i forgot a lot about how ram works n shi bigmoney#0786: Not sure why, but in my cooling software it shows that my cpu goes to a certain temperature, lets say 43c, it will update every second and go down to around 9 degrees lower, and then go back up to either a higher, lower, or the same temp as the original JopeSane#2283: @russeus probably two 4gb sticks would be the best JopeSane#2283: You dont have dual channel with 3 sticks JopeSane#2283: 4 sticks is better than 3 thou
JopeSane#2283: Despite quad channel being not as good as dual channel, at least in older comps JopeSane#2283: @bigmoney what happens if you open task manager? bigmoney#0786: wdym JopeSane#2283: What happens to the temps/cpu usage when you open task manager bigmoney#0786: let me check bigmoney#0786: Here's a copy of what the temps look like https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/802249016372494336/unknown.png bigmoney#0786: They just kinda go down and then go back up and down and up JopeSane#2283: What is your cpu usage bigmoney#0786: Rn its around 4-6% JopeSane#2283: Because fluxuating temps means cpu is doing something JopeSane#2283: So not too much but some background programs might be causing the temps to fluxuate bigmoney#0786: Alright, are those good temps? JopeSane#2283: Depends on cooler JopeSane#2283: Average after market cooler? Normal temps JopeSane#2283: Stock cooler? Good temps

Russeus#7752: i dont want to get rid of the 2gb sticks though. would it be better if i ran quad channel with another 4gb stick? Alcyone#2233: that wont be quad channel, unless you have a quad channel platform Alcyone#2233: just 4 dimms in a dual channel system Alcyone#2233: problem with mixing capacities is it forces flex mode, where it uses the lowest capacity x2 in dual channel and the rest in single Alcyone#2233: right now you are running 2x2 dual channel and the remaining 2gb in single. with a 4gb dimm added it will probably be 2x2 dual with 6gb running single channel. unless you have 2x 2gb single rank in one channel and 1x4gb dual rank with a single rank 2gb in the other. Then it might run 8gb dual channel with 2gb remaining but I am unsure.

I've stumbled upon this one: https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GV-N1030OC-2GI-Nvidia-GeForce-Graphics/dp/B07646VQ6T Is this a good choice? Jeffrey#9213: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/919lkVdI%2BbL._AC_SL1500_.jpg Muse#0557: o lord Jeffrey#9213: I know, 1030 is a bad word Muse#0557: is 150 the budget then? Jeffrey#9213: Yes, but it can only be on Amazon US Jeffrey#9213: Since its a gift card, ya know. Muse#0557: There is like no stock at all Jeffrey#9213: I assume you mean gpu's in general? Muse#0557: Yes Muse#0557: Its barren Jeffrey#9213: That's what I've heard Muse#0557: I wouldn't recommend upgrading rn
Muse#0557: the 1030 is the only thing left for a reason Jeffrey#9213: *broken gtx 650* Muse#0557: this is a yikes Jeffrey#9213: Oh man this looks like a great choice https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-5200-128-GPU/dp/B0001XX0PS/ Muse#0557: XP support is worth atleast 200 Muse#0557: that is mental Muse#0557: Do you want to play games or do you just need a video output Muse#0557: because amazon is a bit tragic Jeffrey#9213: The only spare gpu I have is an XFX HD6770. Jeffrey#9213: Yeah, my buddy does play various games Muse#0557: The 1030 is only like a 45% upgrade Jeffrey#9213: I'm fairly certain that he could care less about the framerate, if I'm completely honest. Muse#0557: id honestly stick with the 6770 Jeffrey#9213: I'll see what games run on an XFX HD 6770 Muse#0557: the only option being a gt 1030 for 90 bucks is terrible
Muse#0557: does that include sales tax? Jeffrey#9213: I know that I won't find good value in these current times Jeffrey#9213: Yeah, sales tax is added on at the end. Muse#0557: If they can get away with a 6770 then that'd be ideal Muse#0557: maybe the market will clear up a bit Jeffrey#9213: Yeah, I'll see what I can do. Muse#0557: what sort of games do they play? Jeffrey#9213: The current setup is: AMD Phenom II X4 820, XFX HD 6770, and a GA-M61PME motherboard Muse#0557: oh damn Muse#0557: The X2 will probably bottleneck a 1030 anyway Jeffrey#9213: X4 rather, my bad Muse#0557: ?

Alcyone#2233: you want the rad in the top of the case, so probably a 240 Alcyone#2233: unless you can fit 280 rad in top mount Jad#4841: okay, those are cheaper than anything i get on my discount, so thats nice Jad#4841: nah ill stick to 240 Jad#4841: ill decide between that and the MSI MAG Jad#4841: do my research a bit and see what i come up with Jad#4841: so i want it mounted on the top? why not the side Jad#4841: and 3 120 fans on top Alcyone#2233: you want it blowing the hot air out of the case, not into it Alcyone#2233: with a rad as intake you are feeding the gpu heated air Jad#4841: gotcha, all these reviews and pics of people on amazon have it at the side Alcyone#2233: unless it is water cooled as well
Jad#4841: gotcha Jad#4841: appreciate the help Alcyone#2233: no prob, good luck mi3night#2562: Be careful people, nvidia has stopped requiring manufactures to label the wattage RTX3000 mobile cards. That means there's no more MaxQ variants. So that means in some instances, a full 3060 can match or outperform a 3070 with limited wattage mi3night#2562: @Budget can you ping this so people can know. Alcyone#2233: who here is buying rtx 3000 laptops? mi3night#2562: in the future perhaps JopeSane#2283: I am intrigued if they provide better battery life JopeSane#2283: along with better cpus mi3night#2562: because a 3060 with 125w vs a 3070 that is only getting 35w mi3night#2562: yeah but you still got to be careful about it Budget#8265: But like this happens everytime Budget#8265: AMD APUs were all benchmarked on 35Ws Budget#8265: but there were 12-15W Variants Budget#8265: Its a good idea
Budget#8265: BUT the issue is its far too rampant in the laptop manufacturing space Budget#8265: where there is no set power standard mi3night#2562: yeah thats true but i feel bad for the people who overpays for a 3070 45w and they see little improvement over a full 3060 that gets 125w Budget#8265: Its definitely an issue mi3night#2562: i mean now if someone wants a laptop with 30 series gpu. I have to tell them that some laptops dont have the full wattage gpus and some do. And i have to dig into the specs to know about it Cassette-Chan#3396: What the hell does this mean https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/803023337055453244/image0.jpg JopeSane#2283: "A folder with a flashing question mark means that your startup disk is no longer available or doesn't contain a working Mac operating system" JopeSane#2283: something's fucky Charlie Foxtrot#9831: @Cassette-Chan Dead HDD/No OS installed Cassette-Chan#3396: Huh, there is a hard drive installed, it must’ve been wiped Cassette-Chan#3396: I’ve tried to make a dvd with the MacOS 10.4 iso and it did nothing sandrosandro482#8710: Hey uh does anyone know why I couldn't control my fan speed on the cpu?

mynameistak3n#6865: is a fx6300 a bottleneck with a 1050 mynameistak3n#6865: its defo a bottleneck with a RX480 mynameistak3n#6865: the games i want to play is GTA V, red dead 2, FiveM, R6, Ride 2, Ride3 mynameistak3n#6865: im running them on my monitor's max res which is 900p mynameistak3n#6865: from what ive seen in YT it shows pretty go performance in 1080P, it can run some games in high, ultra, medium-high Cassette-Chan#3396: My powerMac G4 apparently doesn’t recognize any one of the four drives that are in it Cassette-Chan#3396: All of them have the correct jumpers on it, I can hear the hard drive and DVD drive spinning, but they’re not showing up in the boot options JopeSane#2283: just checking but are there any differences in pcie risers? JopeSane#2283: By this I mean are some risers for example x4? So even if I put it in x16 slot, by using a bad riser I limit it to x4? JopeSane#2283: Or is it just a "cable" JopeSane#2283: No prior experience in risers so gotta ask Rea77y#6618: Ehh Rea77y#6618: Why does my cpu use only 73w at peak? Rea77y#6618: Its a 105w chip Rea77y#6618: And I have it ocd to 4.7ghz all core
Rea77y#6618: When stress testing ryzen master usually goes up to 73-75 Rea77y#6618: But my cpu doesn't throttle D.D.M#8226: And is that a problem? D.D.M#8226: That looks excellent to me Rea77y#6618: Idk that's why I am asking Rea77y#6618: Did I mention 1.1v btw Rea77y#6618: :Heyyy: D.D.M#8226: Probs from undervolting D.D.M#8226: Undervolting? D.D.M#8226: Or overvolting? rriot#6100: oh you undervolted the cpu? rriot#6100: that might be why D.D.M#8226: Well if he isn't having an issue then i guess its fine D.D.M#8226: Btw good overclock JustinXenyx#8854: I'd say even a 1050 gets bottlenecked in anything remotely CPU intensive
JustinXenyx#8854: FX has almost Core 2 like IPC just with modern instruction sets added on top Muse#0557: Fx more like depress Muse#0557: Discord is lagging like mad oh damn JopeSane#2283: I would pair fx6300 with ~670 at most JopeSane#2283: maybe 960 JopeSane#2283: thou 670 and 1050 are pretty similiar to performance JopeSane#2283: so I would say 1050 is fine with 6300 but depending on pc it would be waste of money JopeSane#2283: as 670 is 20-40 euros and 1050 can be much more JopeSane#2283: but of course if you have low power psu, then 1050 is an option Rea77y#6618: I want to try to push 5 ghz Rea77y#6618: Just for the lols JustinXenyx#8854: Considering how shit Kepler aged, fuck no JustinXenyx#8854: Maybe in older games, but nothing remotely modern JopeSane#2283: Possibly in games released after 2018-2019 but other than that, performance seems to be rather similiar mynameistak3n#6865: Im not playing new games like 2018++, i mostly play older games
mynameistak3n#6865: The newest game i play is tarkov and ride 3 mynameistak3n#6865: Tarkov is ez to run mynameistak3n#6865: Well if train simulator 2021 counts i guess lol mynameistak3n#6865: But that game is like almost several years old but every year they update the title mynameistak3n#6865: Took out several things as you can see the latch on the PCIe slot and the far right bottom ram slot is bwoken https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/803591197599203348/20210126_184241_HDR.jpg Muse#0557: Fx and kepler is like toenails and mucus average chinese citizen 2#1119: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/803709485038305280/video0.mov average chinese citizen 2#1119: Im guessing this it the sound of my hdd dying Racey#8574: nah my laptop does that all the time Racey#8574: it's just the HDD moving around the arm thing really fast Foxious#1859: Yeah i have HDD's that sound way sicker and still work fine Foxious#1859: my 20 year old hdd in my deskpro, for example average chinese citizen 2#1119: It sounds like that all the time Racey#8574: loud clacking noises is what you should be worried about average chinese citizen 2#1119: I was in bios when it did that

Would it be too crazy to put inside a 32GB CF to IDE44 adapter and replacing the Li-ion? The total cost of restoring would be around 75€.. Din (Mája)#0264: Issues are: Overheating since 2004 and high failure rate at this series. Alcyone#2233: fix it Alcyone#2233: you can get 44pin ide ssd, modern paste and adjusting the mounting pressure, or even liquid metal. Dogecode#7321: does liquid metal get old like normal paste does or can it be permanent? never used it so idk primo007#7071: Has it had a thorough clean, that can often fix some stuff
Dogecode#7321: ^ its probably pretty dusty if I had to guess Din (Mája)#0264: What do you mean with adjusting the mounting pressure? Din (Mája)#0264: YES, I don't doubt it. It was unused in a heavy smoker's place (at least he smokes quality stuff, so it smells nice, but still... It's gonna be interesting) Alcyone#2233: @Din (Mája) you add washers to the spring screws to increase the tension Dogecode#7321: gotta be careful not to crack the die though Alcyone#2233: or the litte x braxe if it uses that Alcyone#2233: you really gotta smash it to break the die Alcyone#2233: ive tightened down rigid mounts until I noticed the pcb bending on desktop boards and gpus Alcyone#2233: but it is good to be careful and always go even turns in a cross pattern Alcyone#2233: i think a lot of the broken silicon comes from people applying to much pressure unevenly Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/754412776440594472/796734267207581706/20210107_133710.jpg bare die, 2kg homebrew ln2 pot and no springs Din (Mája)#0264: Okay, so I'll do the following: Dust it off
Clean the dry paste and repaste it with Arctic MX-2 Add washers to the screws so the tension isn't as high (so I'll buy a pack of 'em extra) Should I use Loctite normal on the screws? And might cleaning the thing with Eucalyptus spray (sprayed on a cloth of course) be good for it? Alcyone#2233: you want more tension, not less Din (Mája)#0264: Ooooof, yeah.. that's bending, allright Alcyone#2233: the higher the mounting pressure the more effective the cooling Alcyone#2233: like 1 nylon washer on each side should be plenty to help and not risk damaging anything Alcyone#2233: you dont need any threadlocker on the screws, they wont back out or they would have already fallen out in the last 15 years Din (Mája)#0264: So higher the pressure means: Better cooling Better livespan of the motherboard And a smaller risk of breaking the ball contacts on the GPU for example? (God damn the IBM T42) Alcyone#2233: yeah less likely to lift the bga as well if it gets thermonuclear hot because there is more pressure pushing it onto the pcb
Alcyone#2233: there are lots of vids of people doing it on laptops and gpus. I think GN even did it on a strix? 6800xt? recently Din (Mája)#0264: @Alcyone you've given me advice worth good respect, even when I'm new in here (went here to ask about this, really) Din (Mája)#0264: Thank you a lot! Now I know what to look for 😄 The United States Air Force#7904: Nice I saw one of those nonworking for like 20 plus shipping Din (Mája)#0264: Someone in UK is selling the same model for 130 pounds plus shipping and people are actually interested in it : 'D maybe it's America and Europe having different rarity situations Din (Mája)#0264: Not planning on selling it, though :' ) Din (Mája)#0264: It's one of the first computers I've ever been exposed to when I was a kid (as I could remember) The United States Air Force#7904: nah it was cuz it was in less than immaculate condition The United States Air Force#7904: yours is in good condition The United States Air Force#7904: so its worth at least 100 here Din (Mája)#0264: also I'm sorry for spamming the tech help channel, this half-belongs in retro-chat Din (Mája)#0264: especially after restoring, that is 😄 this sounds nice! can't believe it actually has any other value than for games.. retro world is weird The United States Air Force#7904: its a special model
The United States Air Force#7904: so it is def something collectors will want The United States Air Force#7904: over a traditional retro pc The United States Air Force#7904: those are alr starting to get rare, that acer is even more rare The United States Air Force#7904: I saw an lgr vid on it like 3 years ago or something Din (Mája)#0264: yeahyeahyeah, his Ferrari 4005 WLMi! I actually crap my pants (not literally) with excitement, especially after he mentioned the 3x00 series The United States Air Force#7904: nice Din (Mája)#0264: So... I shouldn't carry into conventions and other places where it could get stolen by a price-aware thief, yes? Or at least without a Kensington lock Din (Mája)#0264: I'm.. not experienced with rare tech that still has use, to be honest, I don't know the bon ton The United States Air Force#7904: I mean its old so i would keep it at home The United States Air Force#7904: get something cheaper The United States Air Force#7904: cuz you can drop it The United States Air Force#7904: or lose it Din (Mája)#0264: Well, I got myself an IBM T42, which has good battery and I actually USED to use Din (Mája)#0264: Buuut the GPU sucks and it developed a nasty contact issue with it -- squish it lightly and welcome to a crashed all-lines land The United States Air Force#7904: oof
The United States Air Force#7904: you can prob get a 2nd gen i5 probook or latitude for under 100 The United States Air Force#7904: will be far better than the Ferrari in terms of usability and durability in a convention Din (Mája)#0264: I got a friend in Slovakia (Czech talking here, hehe) that actually has a 2008 Windows Vista Asus laptop (f5gl-ap311a) with 3gb of RAM and a dying HDD (Intel Core 2 Duo) I could ask her if she wouldn't sent it to me 😄 it would make an awesome retro rig with good specs and nothing to lose The United States Air Force#7904: nice Din (Mája)#0264: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/803771069513203763/20210127_003849.jpg The United States Air Force#7904: noice Din (Mája)#0264: Good news, found brother's almost wrecked Y570 Din (Mája)#0264: No slovakia, just an SSD and happines :D The United States Air Force#7904: add an ssd and extra ram Din (Mája)#0264: RAM already maxxed out, I actually serviced it when I was still a wee lad.. just an SSD and Windows Vista and it's an awesome portable retro rig, yes :D Din (Mája)#0264: Thank you for the tips!

Later turn 4th monitor on, PC freezes, won't restart until 4th monitor is turned off (remains plugged in)
5. Update GPU driver, PC restarts, won't even POST and unable to get to bios (just sits with fans spinning) 6. Clears CMOS 7.

Gryphus One#9917: if it happens again i'll definitely try it tho thanks NecroFlex#9105: have you tried plugging the problematic one into a different video output to see if it's a monitor issue or a plug issue? @Gryphus One Gryphus One#9917: When troubleshooting it not booting i was swapping sockets around to no avail NecroFlex#9105: haven't heard of the 30-series having issues running 4 monitors, but since it's DP to DP, what cable do you have? NecroFlex#9105: Because some DP cables have the 20th pin wires, which is the pin that delivers the 500mA of power, usually for DP extenders NecroFlex#9105: and if both the card and monitor want to use it, it can make the PC not boot sometimes NecroFlex#9105: if you want to read more NecroFlex#9105: https://www.cablechick.com.au/blog/the-displayport-pin-20-issue-explained/#:~:text=Why%20Does%20DisplayPort%20Pin%2020,to%20problems%20when%20booting%20up.

DarknessFalls229#2286: mine supposedly goes from 200C to 400C in steps of 10C NecroFlex#9105: They are usually 300-400, unless you're using specific solder which already melts are 200. But i leave mine on 300 and bump it up to 350, maybe a bit more if there's a lot of grounding that need a lot of heating, but anything above 400 for longer periods of time won't only damage the soldering tip (heating up and cooling down) but can also damage the PCB more than a 300°C tip can D.D.M#8226: It would make sense if D.D.M#8226: Probs when a soldering iron goes mad mi3night#2562: thats like mi3night#2562: a jet engine Muse#0557: Literally anything?

never seen em like that before Lady Mipha#0611: and the "never judge a book by its cover" NecroFlex#9105: DDR3 could get a bit hot w/o a heatspreader if overclocked high enough/enough voltage NecroFlex#9105: because early DDR3 could go as high as 1.8V, maybe higher NecroFlex#9105: That's for the first Core 2 DDR3 motherboards and early Nehalem//Westmere processors (so first core i series for 1156 and 1366) NecroFlex#9105: Those tended to need heatspreaders if the were a "high" MHz ones NecroFlex#9105: One of the reasons you might have issues running the older kits on newer DDR3 motherboards NecroFlex#9105: because between Nehalem/Westmere and Sandy Bridge+ the memory controller became more sensitive to voltage changes NecroFlex#9105: so it would either just not work or have issues/potentially killing the controller NecroFlex#9105: happened early on because Nehalem wasn't a big boom from Core 2, but Sandy Bridge was a huge leap from Nehalem, so a lot of people still used their old high voltage memory if they were early DDR3 adopters NecroFlex#9105: and i have seen dead CPUs because of that NecroFlex#9105: But yeah, unless you'll be pushing the voltage too high, you won't need headspreaders NecroFlex#9105: now it's used more as a marketing thing Foxious#1859: also easier to pull out Foxious#1859: more to grap onto

D.D.M#8226: I was waiting for you read bio/description#8459: lets do that today Foxious#1859: Just get a seasonic Foxious#1859: with the 10 year warranty, they trust their own psu's so much that i dont think they even can go wrong Foxious#1859: propably forbidden in the bible D.D.M#8226: No i was just asking because their products slowly flooded tech stores here read bio/description#8459: they are expensive mate Foxious#1859: @read bio/description 100euros/110 bucks for a fully modular gold 550 watt that lasts for ever is not expensive read bio/description#8459: well i'd say thats expensive, other brands are reliable too mate Foxious#1859: @read bio/description which brands give 10 year warranty? read bio/description#8459: 5 years is more than enough Foxious#1859: nah Foxious#1859: 10 years is always better Foxious#1859: will last for 2 pc's read bio/description#8459: well i mean if you plan for your psu to break then sure go ahead
Foxious#1859: what does it say about the reliability if the manufacturer gives a 10 year warranty? Foxious#1859: not that expensive too, considering my half modular corsair 550 bronze was just 30 euros cheaper Foxious#1859: so you get double the warranty, fully modular, gold standard and the same wattage Foxious#1859: for just a bit more money read bio/description#8459: "just 30" read bio/description#8459: ever heard of different wages? read bio/description#8459: different markets? read bio/description#8459: it might seem like just 30 to you read bio/description#8459: but for me that makes a huge difference Foxious#1859: 20 euros actually Foxious#1859: and 20 is a very small amount of money in pc terms ffs Foxious#1859: Lul Foxious#1859: actually 10 bucks Foxious#1859: just checked Foxious#1859: and considering how well made they are, you dont need to swap it... ever really, if you are not planning to add more power hungry components
Alcyone#2233: Quality power supplies are expensive. When you go too cheap the quality of the electronics takes a nose dive. Because the cost of the cabling, connectors, housing etc stays constant. Alcyone#2233: Prob the 4gb ram Alcyone#2233: Stutter is probably it writing to page file, is this hdd boot drive? Alcyone#2233: I still think it's ram Alcyone#2233: Cpu is running stock or with offset vcore and balanced plan? Alcyone#2233: Oh Alcyone#2233: Maybe you are hobbling it too much Alcyone#2233: Let it eat Alcyone#2233: It's not going to wear out by going faster Alcyone#2233: undervolt it jojosensei#4198: Can I use a 120go SSD for Windows ? I 've seen a lot that it was too low. I don't understand why DarknessFalls229#2286: you can, just expect to yeet a lot of programs and documents to a secondary drive DarknessFalls229#2286: @jojosensei my setup https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/806600179872038972/unknown.png jojosensei#4198: Any good cheap SSD ? DarknessFalls229#2286: pretty much anything that isnt known to have a failing memory controller
DarknessFalls229#2286: but a preference lies within Adata SU650 or Crucial BX500 jojosensei#4198: Those are big SSD no ? jojosensei#4198: What about the cs900 ? DarknessFalls229#2286: its from PNY i think it should be fine MythologicalZ#3752: cs900 is junk, phison s11 drive DarknessFalls229#2286: oh nvm then Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/585235845305466908/709255703726129222/IMG_20190930_110031559.jpg im selling this for $60. passing on deals to gamers Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/585235845305466908/709255943237533757/IMG_20190930_110110402.jpg Alcyone#2233: one fan is messed up, i might fix it first then ask like 75 jojosensei#4198: Is it possible to find good low storage SSD ? It seems all good ones are at least 500go NecroFlex#9105: Sapphire always made good coolers NecroFlex#9105: and good looking ones The United States Air Force#7904: how much for shipping
The United States Air Force#7904: :Thonking: Alcyone#2233: I think it would be like $15. I would have to get it weighed and measured The United States Air Force#7904: hmmm The United States Air Force#7904: maybe I will wait a gamer who needs a main gpu will need this more than me The United States Air Force#7904: and in a few months cards like this will be worth like $40 Alcyone#2233: probably not, they were $80 before and will be ~$80 after The United States Air Force#7904: hmm Alcyone#2233: lesser 290s will probably drop in price quite a bit, this was the halo product Alcyone#2233: I will probably repair or replace the fan and toss it on ebay auction next week. The United States Air Force#7904: hmm NecroFlex#9105: $60 isn't bad in the current market considering i've seen god damn 5870's g ofor like 50€ on my local market 😂 MitsuM17CHi#7098: im looking for something 4gb. lest just say autocad on a hd7850 is pretty laggy Alcyone#2233: I've never used any workstation software but the ol hawaii is about the same as a rx 570 in games. MitsuM17CHi#7098: i just need one thats gonna have good performance MitsuM17CHi#7098: and not die on me like my 270x
MitsuM17CHi#7098: because toasty NecroFlex#9105: odd, i had a 270x a long time ago and it didn't go past 65°C in a cheap shitty case i had NecroFlex#9105: iirc autocad works best with Nvidia and their CUDA cores NecroFlex#9105: so get any cheap Quadro card, or if you get a nice deal on a GTX card you can go for that too NecroFlex#9105: if you're looking around the $100 area, you can probably get a 1060 if you're lucky, or get a new Quadro P400, it's a cheap Pascal based quadro card NecroFlex#9105: they go for around $130 new i think mi3night#2562: Macbooks - By Midnight ***good buy as of now*** Macbook air M1 $1000 Macbook pro M1 $1300 ***Consider it if you want one for long term*** macbook pro 2019 16inch

DarknessFalls229#2286: @Muse its muse time Muse#0557: Huh Muse#0557: You're tech help Muse#0557: Your problem now DarknessFalls229#2286: ***CHAAART*** Muse#0557: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/806988815809511494/Hierarchy_V4.png Muse#0557: Listen if a 970 is only 100 euros rn that's good Muse#0557: It's £160 in UK rn Muse#0557: Save it Darkness
DarknessFalls229#2286: @jojosensei do consider the weird memory config of the 970 though, as its not full 4GBs of GDDR5 DarknessFalls229#2286: will do Muse#0557: 3.5GB gang jojosensei#4198: Ok that's strange 😀 Racey#8574: what's the difference between the Xp and X Pascal jojosensei#4198: But 160 ? How can it be that expensive Racey#8574: nevermind the Xp is just a roided X Pascal Alcyone#2233: the later drivers fixed the 970 mem problem, by never accessing the 512mb of slow stuff Racey#8574: 3.5 GB moment jojosensei#4198: I 've seen a post on an eBay like site where someone sell a 970 60 euros because when he launch game, after two minutes it power off his PC. I think it might be a PSU problem and that maybe his 60 euros GPU is working well. What do you think ? jojosensei#4198: It's 4go now ? Alcyone#2233: amds fix for display dropping out above 60hz or multiple displays. Just lock vram to max state https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/806991525887213658/unknown.png Alcyone#2233: no 970 is truly 3.5gb now because the drivers wont let it use the 512mb of slow vram in direct x Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/806992185836699738/unknown.png jojosensei#4198: Ok thx
jojosensei#4198: What do you think about this ? Racey#8574: is GTX 980 bad for $150 Racey#8574: midnight made me think about it last night so idk Alcyone#2233: right now its not the worst Alcyone#2233: avg for a good model was like $120 before gpucalypse 2.0 D.D.M#8226: Can someone pin this? D.D.M#8226: Might come in handy for people Racey#8574: I'm gonna guess $270 for a 980 Ti is bad Alcyone#2233: yes Alcyone#2233: sad that 980ti were going for around $150-160 and 1070s were 200 a while ago Racey#8574: so I should hold onto the 980 deal until i find something better right Alcyone#2233: probably, its about a rx 580 iirc in games Alcyone#2233: maybe a little bit better than a 4gb version as I think the core is faster on nv with them both maxxed out Cassette-Chan#3396: Would it be possible to upgrade a coppermine P3 to a Tualatin? NecroFlex#9105: Yes, as long as your motherboard supports it
NecroFlex#9105: iirc for Intel, the 815 chipset had support for it NecroFlex#9105: for others, no clue NecroFlex#9105: i'm so angry cause i have an 810 chipset :Oof: Serial Designation V#7880: i got locked out of my computer after forgetting my password, so i installed windows on another machine and accessed my ssd from this computer to get the text file that contained my password. after i got back onto my computer, i logged in to find that brave AND chrome had completely removed all of my passwords and logged me out of everything. every time i boot up my computer it deletes them AGAIN. also i need a new keyboard becuase my left shift key doesnt work anymore for some reason.

Kacpreusz#7656: Windows 10 won’t work as it doesnt support PAE and NX, you need a socket 775 Pentium 4 The Tired Technician#8073: what about a Pentium D? I have one of those too The United States Air Force#7904: socket 775 The United States Air Force#7904: p4 can The United States Air Force#7904: I think I have run windows 10 on prescotts The United States Air Force#7904: well worse The United States Air Force#7904: although newer The Tired Technician#8073: well i have like 6 computers laying around that remain untested The Tired Technician#8073: got em for free The Tired Technician#8073: so i want to see what i can do with them The Tired Technician#8073: 4 pentium 4s, 1 celeron thats similar to the pentium 4s, 1 pentium D, and 1 core 2 quad Kacpreusz#7656: No socket 478 cpu is going to work The United States Air Force#7904: nice Racey#8574: You can do up to windows 8.1 with bypasses Kacpreusz#7656: I think you can somehow patch Windows to work without there instructions but it will be difficult and not worth it tbh, just install Windows 7
Racey#8574: But Windows 10 patched all of them so it's impossible The Tired Technician#8073: thats unfortunate. Racey#8574: Not like it would be usable with that old of a CPU The Tired Technician#8073: well hopefully i have a 775 pentium 4 to get a chuckle out of The Tired Technician#8073: i also have an athlon 64 3700+ system laying around The Tired Technician#8073: thats just a board, cpu, and ram though The Tired Technician#8073: no real use for it The Tired Technician#8073: maybe that will run W10? DarknessFalls229#2286: probably not DarknessFalls229#2286: unless maybe 32 bit The Tired Technician#8073: maybe ill send it to budget for him to laugh at The Tired Technician#8073: lol DarknessFalls229#2286: perhaps using it for what it was made for is better DarknessFalls229#2286: like windows 7 or windows XP DarknessFalls229#2286: or linux
