Dogecode#7321: looks like you have the nforce 430 chipset too
Din (Mája)#0264: Oh no.. when I bought my 2002 Athlon XP rig, it came with an old AVC fan pre-installed. Its fan was stuck so badly I cut my finger from the blades :'D
Din (Mája)#0264: Also that's a jerry-rig if I ever saw one, dangit
lock dot 2#7946: Ouch! That is not good! Hopefully your fingers were okay!
steamypotato#5293: I started messing with remote monitor apps on Android

wiryfuture🦀#1706: so my friend took out two of his four ram sticks because they were two pairs of different ones (so no dual channel, idk why it was like that), but now that he has done it the mobo says that there memory is unsupported a la error code 53 (it's an aSUS maximus vi hero). |
I told him to press the memok button but the mobo still didn't figure out how to use the memory and Idk what to tell him to do.
I got him to remove the cmos bat, wait a while, then put it back in, as well as use the cmos clear jumper, but it doesn't seem to have reset the bios because it *still* didn't work, even after another memok. Do I need to get him to pull the bat out and use the jumper? what even?
Alcyone#2233: mixed density/ic will still run in dual channel. maybe one of his kits are bum
wiryfuture🦀#1706: one of the pairs is 4GB other is 8GB
wiryfuture🦀#1706: all he did is pull the 4gb pair out of the mobo
wiryfuture🦀#1706: they're 2133mhz dimms afaik
wiryfuture🦀#1706: but that needs xmp
wiryfuture🦀#1706: can't get it to post though and idk why
wiryfuture🦀#1706: the mobo isn't configuring the dimms at all
wiryfuture🦀#1706: With either a single of the 4GB ones or a single of the 8GB ones
wiryfuture🦀#1706: also, tskmgr said they were running at 1333mhz which is ddr3 'stock' afaik
Din (Mája)#0264: They were fine after first aid, can't say the same for the fan now in the e-waste ^^" thank you for the concern
Din (Mája)#0264: I hope you'll get the fan outta there soon :D
"Cobs"#1150: get a lumia 950XL or something and you can run windows directly on them
lock dot 2#7946: @Din (Mája) I got the fan off, after a long battle. The computer is now working |
Deleted User#0000: ayyyy !
Deleted User#0000: glad to hear it !
Din (Mája)#0264: Yaaaayyy!! :D that took long enough, but I'm glad to hear qwq
Din (Mája)#0264: I hope no fingers were harmed during the fight xD
lock dot 2#7946: No fingers were harmed ;p

Foxious#1859: altough mine dosent have the DVI port, or metal on the VGA
Foxious#1859: its really barebones
Lady Mipha#0611: problem is that deshimming it is hard and can destroy it

Sony PS-FL77#3627: Right so I've used MediaCreationTool to get Windows 10 on a USB
Sony PS-FL77#3627: but no matter what I do I can't get this system to boot to it
Sony PS-FL77#3627: I've tried disabling Sata
Sony PS-FL77#3627: I've disabled secureboot
Deleted User#0000: @Sony PS-FL77 maybe use Rufus and set it to BIOS (or UEFI non-CSM) ? maybe the system has a funky uefi ?
Sony PS-FL77#3627: I've tried a USB 2 port instead and gotten to a blinking cursor
Sony PS-FL77#3627: I'mma leave it here for a bit
Sony PS-FL77#3627: see if I can get it working
Dogecode#7321: i have a naked riva tnt2 vanta
pretty sure the thing cooked itself since it has some weird artifacts :Hahahahaha:
Dogecode#7321: Technically it still works though
hughes fan number 1#6171: Pc isn’t starting. Turns on nothing on screen. Tried bios reset I think but it doesn’t work ( I think I did it correct ) I put a different cmos in a couple months ago and it still doesn’t start. Ram isn’t a problem I tested. Fan turns on then off.
hughes fan number 1#6171: Working now. I had to put a 1050 in it https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/882967407839293651/image0.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/882967408191627264/image1.jpg
hughes fan number 1#6171: I don’t know why 1050 has never been in it
hughes fan number 1#6171: I just turned it on now it’s using back up bios |
hughes fan number 1#6171: It had interpreted graphics btw
Muse#0557: What monitor is that
hughes fan number 1#6171: Dell s2419hn I wouldn’t recommend it even though it’s the best monitor I own
hughes fan number 1#6171: No output on screen again you got any ideas
Muse#0557: I normally just clear the cmos and resit the ram
Muse#0557: That fixes 90% of issues for me
hughes fan number 1#6171: Ram resit
Muse#0557: Another 5% are fixed by updating the bios
hughes fan number 1#6171: Cmos clear no clue what to do but I think that’s what I did
hughes fan number 1#6171: And now it’s gone again
hughes fan number 1#6171: Can’t update bios as nothing on screen
Muse#0557: There's a little coin battery on the motherboard
Muse#0557: Typically underneath where the graphics card sits
Muse#0557: Take it out
Muse#0557: Wait 2 minutes |
Muse#0557: Put it back in
hughes fan number 1#6171: Ok I’ll do that
hughes fan number 1#6171: I replaced it
Muse#0557: It's above the gpu on your card
hughes fan number 1#6171: I didn’t wait 2 min
Muse#0557: You don't have to
Muse#0557: But its advised
hughes fan number 1#6171: Do I have to plug it in and leave the pc on without the cmos?
hughes fan number 1#6171: Or do I just take out the cmos
hughes fan number 1#6171: And leave the pc unplugged without cmos for 2 min
Muse#0557: Unplug the PC, Take out the battery, Wait 2 minutes, Reinsert the battery, Replug the PC
hughes fan number 1#6171: alright cmos is out thanks
hughes fan number 1#6171: Yep it’s on now thanks. I bet it’ll go next time I try boot
hughes fan number 1#6171: So I’ll have to keep resetting it
Sony PS-FL77#3627: huh |
Sony PS-FL77#3627: now random white dots are appearing all over the Win10 logo
Sony PS-FL77#3627: how intriguing
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Getting white specks around the Win11 logo if I try booting from the SSD
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Jesus fuck

Bromogatos309#9028: Does anyone know if a 500w gold psu will be able to handle a gtx 970 oc edition
Deleted User#0000: use rufus maybe
Sony PS-FL77#3627: I'm saying it works you dingus
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Should be fine
Sony PS-FL77#3627: *should*
Bromogatos309#9028: lol
Sony PS-FL77#3627: depending on the CPU
Foxious#1859: @Bromogatos309 According to techpowerup the recommended psu for the regular is 300 watts |
Sony PS-FL77#3627: don't match it with a threadripper lol
Bromogatos309#9028: I have a ryzen 2600
Sony PS-FL77#3627: oh you'll be fine
Deleted User#0000: sorry my bad
Bromogatos309#9028: Thank
Sony PS-FL77#3627: np
Bromogatos309#9028: Actually one more question lol.....As I said it's an oc edition
Bromogatos309#9028: But I will not oc tho
Bromogatos309#9028: Is it the same wattage with the normal 970 ?
Bromogatos309#9028: Or should I downclock a bit
Foxious#1859: I mean
Foxious#1859: if the regular model is recommended to be paired with 300 watts
Foxious#1859: i dont think that the OC could physically use 200 more
Foxious#1859: i would say you are fine
Bromogatos309#9028: oh ok |
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Yeah no that die can't even use that much power lol
Sony PS-FL77#3627: you'll be entirely fine

Foxious#1859: Hope you not talking bout my 1070, its brilliant, keeps the card semi cool, is extremely quiet and blows the hot air out of this awful case
Sony PS-FL77#3627: ye
Deleted User#0000: noice. gonna make your own server with dat ?
Deleted User#0000: or a "i blew 3 grand on cpus" build like jinping did ?
Grockle#7163: I mean, 80C operating temps aren't amazing
Grockle#7163: But yeah, they are beautiful
Foxious#1859: 80c is just fine tho, especially for how quiet it is |
Foxious#1859: way
Foxious#1859: WAY
Foxious#1859: WAYYYY
Deleted User#0000: meh, i don't tend to like the founders edition cards this much.
Foxious#1859: better than the utter piece of **shit** that i call my rx 580
Foxious#1859: that awful piece of garbage is extremely loud, runs too hot and is alot weaker than my 1070
Foxious#1859: just hopeless
Deleted User#0000: depends of the card. if it's the XFX version yeah no wonder
Foxious#1859: Its the powercolor red dragon
Deleted User#0000: ah. so powercolor never had any card of them
Foxious#1859: Combined with the terrible radeon software and the driver issues, i will never buy amd ever again
Foxious#1859: at least gpu wise
Deleted User#0000: i'm happy with my rx560 at least 🙂
Foxious#1859: good for you
Foxious#1859: god that sounded salty |
Foxious#1859: i meant it
Foxious#1859: and i do recommend the 400 series
Foxious#1859: because they perform the same but use less power
Deleted User#0000: ***just a dash***
Foxious#1859: just a small salt mine
Deleted User#0000: :Hahaha:
Foxious#1859: but if you ever want to upgrade to a rx 580
Foxious#1859: **dont**
Foxious#1859: go for a 480 instead
Deleted User#0000: if my 500w Acer psu can handle it, of course
Foxious#1859: oh if you want to use 500 watt psu, get an nvidia card
Foxious#1859: they made them properly so they use way less power
Foxious#1859: if i recall, the 580 uses something ridiculous like 65 watts more power than a 1070
Deleted User#0000: i have a 780 non-TI and it doesn't even start with this psu
Foxious#1859: mhm they are hungry bois |
Dogecode#7321: i tried to run a hd 5850 on a 450w psu
Dogecode#7321: it didnt work
Foxious#1859: 600 watts recommended
Foxious#1859: for the 780
Foxious#1859: 250 tdp
Dogecode#7321: i put it in the main rig with a 750w psu and it booted up fine
Foxious#1859: 580 uses 185 watts and a 450 is recommended
Foxious#1859: 1070 uses just 150 watts (altough i remembered the difference with 580 horribly wrong) and a 450, again is recommended
Deleted User#0000: maybe if i find like a good bargain on one of those ***EEE VEE GEE AYY*** 700w psus
Deleted User#0000: and NO gigabyte P750GM
Foxious#1859: if i were you id just get a 550 watt seasonic gold like me, and then try to find a cheap 1070 or 1660 Super
Deleted User#0000: if my i5-4570s doesn't bottleneck it ofc
Foxious#1859: S?

Foxious#1859: But anyways
Foxious#1859: im sure your i5 would be fine
Deleted User#0000: it is, 'twas a freebie
Foxious#1859: considering that the worst gaming gpu from the last 5 years bottlenecks my I5 3570K
Foxious#1859: can you tell that i hate the rx 580?
Foxious#1859: im adding some subtle hints
Deleted User#0000: already noticed that you detest that video card 🙂 dw
Foxious#1859: You know how you know that its a cheap card compared to the FE?
Foxious#1859: the packaging
Foxious#1859: the FE has the cardboard painted on the inside, in the 580 its just brown for just example
Deleted User#0000: when its like flimsy and shit compared to the thick 'n' hard fe box ?
Foxious#1859: yes
Foxious#1859: but to be fair |
Foxious#1859: the FE was expensive as new
Foxious#1859: the red dragon wasnt
Foxious#1859: i paid more for the used 1070 than the new 580
Foxious#1859: 220 vs 150 european peso

Foxious#1859: I have 55 euros out of 75 euros that i need for a cheap Apple Cinema Display i found at a finnish goodwill
Foxious#1859: Called kierrätyskeskus
Foxious#1859: or recycling center
Foxious#1859: which is strange, because they are not recycling centers
Jazzzny#6861: hmm that isnt very cheap
Foxious#1859: It is for the variant im looking for
Foxious#1859: found a powermac g5 mouse from there |
The Tired Technician#8073: I picked up an apple display that has USB-C input for pretty cheap. Gave that one to my mom since shes more into apple than I
Foxious#1859: and i just need the monitor
Foxious#1859: then my G5 setup is complete
Jazzzny#6861: nice
DarknessFalls229#2286: 75 euro damn
DarknessFalls229#2286: i got my 2 for free
Foxious#1859: Dont know where the hell you lads live
Foxious#1859: but here they dont give cinema displays for free
The Tired Technician#8073: 'Murica
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, i received it from my neighbours
DarknessFalls229#2286: i also have a macbook pro thanks to them

The Tired Technician#8073: I picked up a 27 inch A1407 for 20 bucks. Had a crack in the bezel but meh
Foxious#1859: i want that model specifically
The Tired Technician#8073: for the good old cheesegrater |
Foxious#1859: either that or this, which actually would have gone with my g5's as they are the 2003 model year https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/884080450157559848/appleg51logic-neWsYgmzS9jm_RxS0N_2mlWrH940jp4e.png
The Tired Technician#8073: the G5's usually came with that monitor that had the cable that had video, audio, and USB all in one cable
The Tired Technician#8073: forget what it was called
Foxious#1859: i have heard of it
The Tired Technician#8073: ADC I think?

DarknessFalls229#2286: dont mind my non-existant body in the reflection
The Tired Technician#8073: Noice, I picked up something similar for real cheap. Too bad im not an apple nerd. Those are pretty nice
Foxious#1859: what the fuck am i looking at
Foxious#1859: https://youtu.be/nMsZ-GSKORM
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, too bad im not an apple nerd either
DarknessFalls229#2286: otherwise id actually daily them
Jazzzny#6861: dang |
Jazzzny#6861: nice monitors
The Tired Technician#8073: I have a 5, 1 I think it is. With the dual 12 core xeons
DarknessFalls229#2286: dual 12 core?>
DarknessFalls229#2286: 24 cores?
The Tired Technician#8073: Im planning on giving that with that monitor I have to my mom
The Tired Technician#8073: 24 core, 48 thread yeah
DarknessFalls229#2286: jesus
Jazzzny#6861: what?
The Tired Technician#8073: dual sandy bridge xeons
Jazzzny#6861: oh thats a 6,1
The Tired Technician#8073: or was it Ivy bridge..
Jazzzny#6861: I think
The Tired Technician#8073: But yeah, dual 2011 xeons. and a bunch of other really nice stuff
DarknessFalls229#2286: hopefully that dual xeon setup isnt out of apples support
Foxious#1859: the "number,number" is a bit flawed |
Jazzzny#6861: it isnt yet
Foxious#1859: because my G5 is a 5,1
The Tired Technician#8073: Oh it totally is. It can only be updated to El Capitan
Jazzzny#6861: all products have a "number,number"
DarknessFalls229#2286: damn, that sucks
Jazzzny#6861: your uefi probably needs an update
The Tired Technician#8073: Officially, that is.
Jazzzny#6861: the mac pro 6,1 can go up to monterey
Foxious#1859: In case any of you cares, this is my main G5, the working one
Foxious#1859: https://everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g5/specs/powermac_g5_2.0_dp.html
DarknessFalls229#2286: imagine having 48 threads available in a single computer and not being able to run current day software
The Tired Technician#8073: ikr
The Tired Technician#8073: apple is just kinda dumb like that
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah
DarknessFalls229#2286: though, windows 11 is also guilty of that |
The Tired Technician#8073: Officially I can only get it up to El Capitan. Unofficially however...

Jazzzny#6861: ?
Foxious#1859: Thats actually interesting for me
Jazzzny#6861: are you using a mac pro 1,1 - 4,1
Jazzzny#6861: those are the only mac pros that cap at el cap
The Tired Technician#8073: No idea what it actually is
Foxious#1859: because im wondering if you can somehow patch newer Mac OS versions to run on PPC
Foxious#1859: like Snow Leopard
The Tired Technician#8073: IT looks like a cheese grater G5. But it has the dual 2011 xeons board
Jazzzny#6861: oh
Foxious#1859: in case you 2 need a quick way to identify a G5 or a mac pro
Jazzzny#6861: thats probably the 4,1
Foxious#1859: mac pro has dual optical drives
Jazzzny#6861: flash the bios to the 5,1 |
then you can run mojave natively
The Tired Technician#8073: This guy only has one optical spot
The Tired Technician#8073: I really am kind of out of my league with apple stuff though
The Tired Technician#8073: Im def more of a PC guy
Foxious#1859: G5 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/884082490132824154/apple_powermac_g5.png

Jazzzny#6861: you have a g5
The Tired Technician#8073: But it has a dual 2011 board in it
Foxious#1859: that could be possible
The Tired Technician#8073: I know because ive opened it up
Foxious#1859: hold on
Foxious#1859: whats the serial on it
Jazzzny#6861: ^
Foxious#1859: its just below the door |
Jazzzny#6861: or what does the back of the machine look like?
Jazzzny#6861: are there 2 intakes or 1 intake?
Foxious#1859: the better question jazzny
Foxious#1859: is
Foxious#1859: is the PSU on top or bottom
The Tired Technician#8073: couldnt tell ya what the serial is. But top was PSU
Foxious#1859: god what?
Foxious#1859: this is just bizzare
The Tired Technician#8073: Machine is currently in chicago. Im in Arizona
The Tired Technician#8073: couple hundred miles away rn
Jazzzny#6861: apple never made a model with one optical bay, top psu, and a lga 2011 board
The Tired Technician#8073: could what I have but some guys project that was hacked to shit?
Jazzzny#6861: no
Jazzzny#6861: they would have had to modify the rear case
Jazzzny#6861: to fit a top psu |

Foxious#1859: This is what the serial looks like btw
The Tired Technician#8073: Then I have no fuggin clue my guy
Foxious#1859: Do you have any pics of the inside at all?
The Tired Technician#8073: Also I got what a serial looks like. But the machine is a couple hundred miles away rn
Foxious#1859: or of the machine itself
The Tired Technician#8073: Bottom cavity was the board
The Tired Technician#8073: Then there was a vertical backplane that had PCIe slots

Foxious#1859: im so confused
Jazzzny#6861: https://i.redd.it/oxozrft62c841.jpg
Foxious#1859: fun trivia fact: G5s with only one shield are watercooled
The Tired Technician#8073: That, it looked a lot like that
Jazzzny#6861: are you sure that it had a lga 2011 board?
The Tired Technician#8073: dual 2011 xeons board. I know because I had to replace the quad cores it had in it
Foxious#1859: because remember that G5's were dual cpu too
DarknessFalls229#2286: right, MattKC had like a watercooled G5
DarknessFalls229#2286: ~~my keyboard is cursed, sometimes it doubles the c~~
Jazzzny#6861: well then, you probably had a modified g5 with a pc motherboard
Foxious#1859: yeah
Foxious#1859: thats what im guessing too
Foxious#1859: because G5s are really popular for case modding
Foxious#1859: because of their cool design, large space, good build quality and releatively cheap pricing |
Dogecode#7321: its pretty difficult to do it though
Jazzzny#6861: https://hackaday.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/hackintosh.jpg?w=800
Jazzzny#6861: oh shi
Dogecode#7321: you cant just mount a pc motherboard in it
Jazzzny#6861: that has a top psu
Dogecode#7321: gotta hack it up
Jazzzny#6861: I forgot
Jazzzny#6861: the non watercooled version has a top mounted psu
Jazzzny#6861: iirc
The Tired Technician#8073: It looked like this pic. A lot more than the others
Jazzzny#6861: or maybe im wrong

Jazzzny#6861: well then im clueless
Jazzzny#6861: 1. the 4,1 / 5,1 didnt have a lga 2011 board
Jazzzny#6861: 2. they had 2 optical bays
Foxious#1859: It definetly does not my man
Foxious#1859: i have two of them
Jazzzny#6861: yea
Jazzzny#6861: tiny mistake
Foxious#1859: fair
The Tired Technician#8073: then what in the *FUCK* do I have
The Tired Technician#8073: If only I knew more about macs..
Jazzzny#6861: if you are sure that you had a 2011 board, then you could have a mac pro 6,1 (trashcan) or a modded g5
Dogecode#7321: can you find the apple part number
Dogecode#7321: it usually starts with A and then some numbers
The Tired Technician#8073: I had a dual 2011 board. Which I put 2 12 core Xeons into |
Dogecode#7321: like A1342
Jazzzny#6861: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/884085976991953006/mac-pro-trash-can-deal.png

The Tired Technician#8073: I already said above. The system is a couple hundred miles away. Also its not a trashcan, its a cheesegrater
Jazzzny#6861: not exactly
Jazzzny#6861: it narrows down the model
Jazzzny#6861: but it doesnt give you the exact configuration & year
The Tired Technician#8073: It isnt a G5
The Tired Technician#8073: I already said
The Tired Technician#8073: system information says intel. As well as replacing the CPUs myself
The Tired Technician#8073: No G5s anywhere in there
Jazzzny#6861: well then... you have a hackintosh in a g5 case or a super rare apple prototype that could fetch millions
The Tired Technician#8073: Im gunna go with the some kind of hacked up case option
The Tired Technician#8073: Which is what I thought of at first too when we started talking about it. But you guys didnt listen |
NecroFlex#9105: or just get a replica and you're good to go :LUL:

exquisitedark#1117: my brother formatted my install drive and i cant install now on my new laptop
Jazzzny#6861: sort out a volume licence agreement with microsoft
exquisitedark#1117: how do i do that
NecroFlex#9105: Contact microsoft
exquisitedark#1117: okay
exquisitedark#1117: what do i say
Grockle#7163: "we've been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty"
Jazzzny#6861: Hello, I would like to negotiate a Volume Licence Agreement for the Windows LTSC 2019 Operating System
exquisitedark#1117: i found the usb
exquisitedark#1117: how do i change to military time |
Foxious#1859: "Military time" You mean the 24 hour clock?
steamypotato#5293: We call it military time in the us cause the military is the only place it's used here
steamypotato#5293: Anybody know some good sellers on ebay for old Mac stuff?
Foxious#1859: depends on the mac sthuff
Dogecode#7321: id like to get a classic mac myself one day
Dogecode#7321: oldest one ive got is a g3 blue and white
steamypotato#5293: Old iMacs and emacs sound fun to mess around with but they cost a bit to much tbh
mi3night#2562: oh in china we use 24 hour clock
mi3night#2562: i use the 24 hour clock still lol
mi3night#2562: i prefer it over am and pm
Grockle#7163: i prefer the 12 hour clock, but i realize that not everbody use it
mi3night#2562: maybe i grew up using it
mi3night#2562: thats all
steamypotato#5293: Like 80% of the world uses 24 hr
steamypotato#5293: I have no preference, both are fine |
mi3night#2562: yes 99% of the world uses metric
Dogecode#7321: i stand by 24 hr time
its just easier, you dont have to worry about am or pm
Dogecode#7321: some clocks dont even say whether its am or pm, so in certain situations it might be completely ambiguous what time of day it is
Dogecode#7321: Granted in most cases that wont be a problem, but it's still one less thought-step you have to go through to tell the time if you can just look at it and tell immediately
steamypotato#5293: Bruh, of all the modern apps, only tic tok is support on iOS 9 xD https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/886476091617857546/PXL_20210912_045918174.jpg
DarknessFalls229#2286: Is it weird that i use both time standards?
Lady Mipha#0611: no
Lady Mipha#0611: I do too
exquisitedark#1117: i figuer everything out thanks
Bae#4506: F
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Actually it's more like, everyone apart from the US
steamypotato#5293: Nah, other countries use it
steamypotato#5293: United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the Philippines.
DarknessFalls229#2286: Why are game discs such a scam |
DarknessFalls229#2286: Install a game. It abhorrently installs a useless launcher which needs an account. Like, just use the dvd for as proof of ownership
JustinXenyx#8854: If No-CD cracks have taught me anything, people **HATE** using the disc as a proof of ownership
DarknessFalls229#2286: Yeah, but i have the CD
JustinXenyx#8854: Modern PC games sold on disc include a key for shit like Steam anyway, so you'd technically have two copies of the game if the disc version did proof of ownership via the disc
DarknessFalls229#2286: Also, im just tryna install far cry 3 without a damb uplay account
JustinXenyx#8854: *i think they're still giving it away for free rn via uplay*
DarknessFalls229#2286: "_without a damb uplay account_"
JustinXenyx#8854: solution
JustinXenyx#8854: download via dumb uplay account and install a crack
DarknessFalls229#2286: Well
DarknessFalls229#2286: I _have_ the install disc
DarknessFalls229#2286: Just need a drm free exe or whatever
DarknessFalls229#2286: Oh
DarknessFalls229#2286: I think i found the whole drm free game instead...
DarknessFalls229#2286: Hmmm |
DarknessFalls229#2286: But it needs torrent
inactive#2783: Modern disc games still exist for PC?
inactive#2783: I thought they were just a steam key with a cached copy of the game
inactive#2783: I miss back in the day where you just stuck disc 1 in and that was good enough
DarknessFalls229#2286: you know im talking bout far cry 3 right?
D4V1D#9593: Hello! I've been experiencing loads of random freezes, I have to say I have tried overlooking and I think that's when it started it was "stable" in furmark and when I started doing daily things like browsing through discord and gaming it would just crash/freeze. I've tested my gpu and cpu and ssd but that's it, this happend earlier today
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/886715403450069032/20210912_200637.jpg
D4V1D#9593: Went white
D4V1D#9593: Then black
D4V1D#9593: Then the monitor kept detecting an input so then I decided to log back in and shut it down
D4V1D#9593: Any help would be very much appreciated
D4V1D#9593: This pc build is about 2 weeks old
NecroFlex#9105: could also be ram, had all sorts of issues when i changed ram, from crashes, BSODs, game crashes, monitor not responding , whole BIOS seizing up etc.
NecroFlex#9105: try memtest86
D4V1D#9593: Will do |
D4V1D#9593: The thing is
D4V1D#9593: I never actually have BSODs
D4V1D#9593: Just freezes
D4V1D#9593: Wait whats the diffrence between a freeze and a crash
NecroFlex#9105: a freeze is technically a crash
NecroFlex#9105: but without the restarting part
NecroFlex#9105: it basically hangs because it's lost on what to do next
D4V1D#9593: Yea
D4V1D#9593: Mine freezes and then I have to hit the reset button
D4V1D#9593: Really annoying when gaming in a game like csgo or valorant
D4V1D#9593: I even capped my frames to about 75fps
D4V1D#9593: But as you said
D4V1D#9593: I'll run mem 86
D4V1D#9593: And see what happens
D4V1D#9593: When I was overclocking the reason why it froze was because of amd wattman |
D4V1D#9593: So the I installed whql drivera
D4V1D#9593: I don't know if you can see but, the top pins aren't fully in https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/886982125843255377/20210913_152909.jpg
D4V1D#9593: Do I have to push harder on the gpu
Foxious#1859: You can try to pull it out and then push it in again, sometimes they wont go in properly the first time
D4V1D#9593: Okay
D4V1D#9593: Man I have no idea wahts going on https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/886991705050591252/20210913_160203.jpg
DarknessFalls229#2286: does it display anything normal at all or is it just a single colour?
D4V1D#9593: Single colour
DarknessFalls229#2286: not even bios?
D4V1D#9593: Nah
DarknessFalls229#2286: uh oh
D4V1D#9593: We're in windows
D4V1D#9593: Nah its okay in bios
D4V1D#9593: Just windows it dead
DarknessFalls229#2286: ohh |
DarknessFalls229#2286: id say at that point boot into safe mode, DDU and reinstall drivers
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: How do I do that
DarknessFalls229#2286: do you have a reset button?
D4V1D#9593: Yea
DarknessFalls229#2286: as it boots into windows just hit the reset button
DarknessFalls229#2286: windows should automatically go into recovery mode after 2-3 "crashes"
D4V1D#9593: Doizy told me to stop using the mobo to risk further damage
D4V1D#9593: It's a funky motherbo
D4V1D#9593: The top slot doesn't work
DarknessFalls229#2286: thats weird?
D4V1D#9593: Yea
D4V1D#9593: Not good contact
DarknessFalls229#2286: tried cleaning it with IPA?
D4V1D#9593: No |
DarknessFalls229#2286: have a second 16x slot?
D4V1D#9593: Yes
D4V1D#9593: That's what I'm using now
DarknessFalls229#2286: ah okay
DarknessFalls229#2286: should you continue DDUing?
D4V1D#9593: But the pins like that
D4V1D#9593: Idk bro
D4V1D#9593: This build hasn't even passed a month yet lmao
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, idk what you mean withe "the top pins arent fully in"
D4V1D#9593: But it did get heavily used for 7 years straight
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/886994078837915688/Screenshot_20210913-153631_Discord.jpg
D4V1D#9593: This
DarknessFalls229#2286: ?
D4V1D#9593: But when I looked at the solder points it's supposed to be like that
D4V1D#9593: The top row |
DarknessFalls229#2286: yes?
DarknessFalls229#2286: its fine?
D4V1D#9593: Oh
D4V1D#9593: Well
DarknessFalls229#2286: do you have any other GPUs lying around?
DarknessFalls229#2286: otherwise integrated graphics?
D4V1D#9593: A gt 710 yea
D4V1D#9593: I just used igpu
D4V1D#9593: No signal
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah cause it has a dGPU installed
D4V1D#9593: Yea do I change that in bios
DarknessFalls229#2286: yes
DarknessFalls229#2286: so either with iGPU or GT 710 you can boot into windows
D4V1D#9593: Ok
DarknessFalls229#2286: hold shift while clicking on restart and it'll go into recevery mode aswell |
D4V1D#9593: Ok
DarknessFalls229#2286: from there you can diagnose the system and select startup settings
D4V1D#9593: What happens if it goes pink or white in the bios?
DarknessFalls229#2286: prolly that the GPU is dead/dying
DarknessFalls229#2286: or spotty display connection
D4V1D#9593: Can a psu cause this?
DarknessFalls229#2286: possibly, spotty power delivery can cause a whole range of issues
DarknessFalls229#2286: but if youre not using some chinesium PSU i wouldnt bet on that
D4V1D#9593: it's a cx600m
D4V1D#9593: Corsair
DarknessFalls229#2286: then its prolly fine
DarknessFalls229#2286: unless youre using a lot of power hungry hardware
D4V1D#9593: Apparently the 12v rail dipped to 11.4
D4V1D#9593: Yea it's a r9 280x
DarknessFalls229#2286: eh, i think that should be fine |
DarknessFalls229#2286: a lil low, but perhaps fine under load
DarknessFalls229#2286: actually 11.4v falls in spec with the ATX standard
D4V1D#9593: Yea
D4V1D#9593: Minimum
D4V1D#9593: But its not ideal isn't it
DarknessFalls229#2286: anyway, have you been able to continue with the instructions i gave you?
D4V1D#9593: Not yet as doizy said if I keep using it it'll just get more unstable
D4V1D#9593: So idk
D4V1D#9593: Fuck it if it dies it dies I'm not supprised
D4V1D#9593: Unfortunate this happens to my first pc build
DarknessFalls229#2286: its always unfortunate when something dies
DarknessFalls229#2286: but right now im just trying to get your stuff working again
DarknessFalls229#2286: but havent heard any progress
D4V1D#9593: Ye thanks
D4V1D#9593: Sorry |
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/886996472116170822/20210913_162704.jpg
D4V1D#9593: Can you see that
DarknessFalls229#2286: ooooo thats baaaaad
D4V1D#9593: Yea
DarknessFalls229#2286: thats with your 280x?
D4V1D#9593: Yea
DarknessFalls229#2286: can you take out your 280x and just plug it into iGPU?
D4V1D#9593: Okay
D4V1D#9593: This is my fault anyway
D4V1D#9593: Shouldn't have oced
DarknessFalls229#2286: usually OCing shouldnt have such concequences, but oh well, not something you can predict
D4V1D#9593: Yea
DarknessFalls229#2286: perhaps you can reflash the 280x's bios and see if that fixes it
DarknessFalls229#2286: but for now you need to try and uninstall the drivers
D4V1D#9593: It actually has dual bios |
D4V1D#9593: I think
D4V1D#9593: Cause its a sapphire card
DarknessFalls229#2286: mhmmm
DarknessFalls229#2286: if thats the case, id say boot into windows using iGPU, restart into safe mode, DDU the drivers and then select the second bios on your GPU, slot it back in and retry
DarknessFalls229#2286: but it can also be that your VRAM is just dying its death
D4V1D#9593: But gpuz told me it was running at stock after when I removed the oc they were running at stock speeds
D4V1D#9593: Why?
DarknessFalls229#2286: those artifacts in bios look VRAM related
D4V1D#9593: Damn
D4V1D#9593: Okay I'll take the gpu out now
D4V1D#9593: Hm
D4V1D#9593: I think I have a theroie or something idk
D4V1D#9593: Nvm
D4V1D#9593: I don't think itnis
D4V1D#9593: But I'll tell |
D4V1D#9593: When we first put the gpu in the first slot
D4V1D#9593: Worked fine
D4V1D#9593: 2nd time worked fine
D4V1D#9593: When we opened it to repaste the card
D4V1D#9593: It didn't work in the first slot anymore
D4V1D#9593: And only works in the 2nd slot which is pcie 2.0
D4V1D#9593: Yup @DarknessFalls229 it's the gpu
DarknessFalls229#2286: aha
D4V1D#9593: I bought it from cex
D4V1D#9593: You know cex?
DarknessFalls229#2286: yes
D4V1D#9593: Yea can I get a refund?
DarknessFalls229#2286: when did you buy it?
D4V1D#9593: 9/8/21
DarknessFalls229#2286: 9th of august? |
D4V1D#9593: Nah
D4V1D#9593: July
D4V1D#9593: Wait
D4V1D#9593: Nah
D4V1D#9593: August
D4V1D#9593: My bad
DarknessFalls229#2286: ...
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, you should be eligible for a refund
DarknessFalls229#2286: but dont tell them youve OC'd and taken it apart
D4V1D#9593: Lol
DarknessFalls229#2286: besides, didnt it work fine before?
D4V1D#9593: Yea
DarknessFalls229#2286: well then, would you like to continue troubleshooting it, or are you going to just return it?
D4V1D#9593: Continue honestly
inactive#2783: If you're in the states, it's on the company to prove you broke it by taking it apart |
inactive#2783: instant-invalidating warranty stickers don't hold up in court
DarknessFalls229#2286: CeX in the US?
D4V1D#9593: Mine didn't even have a warranty sticker when I opened it
inactive#2783: oop
D4V1D#9593: Got it*
D4V1D#9593: Darkness
D4V1D#9593: Can I check if its the pcie slot
DarknessFalls229#2286: hm?
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, you got a gt 710 right?
DarknessFalls229#2286: use that for a while
D4V1D#9593: My igpu is better than that thing
DarknessFalls229#2286: u sure?
D4V1D#9593: My brother
D4V1D#9593: Uses the gt 710
D4V1D#9593: Lol |
DarknessFalls229#2286: ah
DarknessFalls229#2286: then use iGPU then
D4V1D#9593: Yea
D4V1D#9593: Should I ddu it
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, its recommendable after each GPU switch, especially after a fatal crash like that
D4V1D#9593: Yes
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Will do
D4V1D#9593: Atlwast I know it isn't my ram
D4V1D#9593: We're do I download ddu
D4V1D#9593: Cause I'm on the website
D4V1D#9593: And there's no download button, sorry for being so dumb
DarknessFalls229#2286: https://www.guru3d.com/files-get/display-driver-uninstaller-download,1.html
D4V1D#9593: thank you
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887002860599005214/unknown.png |
D4V1D#9593: is this ok?
DarknessFalls229#2286: i'd just leave it stock
D4V1D#9593: ok so does it know what gpu? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887003101729550386/unknown.png
DarknessFalls229#2286: if you want to uninstall just the AMD drivers just hit clean and restart. otherwise Clean and do NOT restart, then select intel and use clean and restart
D4V1D#9593: Okay
D4V1D#9593: so after when its done
D4V1D#9593: do i put the gpu in
D4V1D#9593: and try again
DarknessFalls229#2286: if you can switch to the GPU's secondary bios do that aswell
D4V1D#9593: yea
D4V1D#9593: I just wanna say even if this doesn't worm
D4V1D#9593: Work
D4V1D#9593: Thanks for your help
D4V1D#9593: so the bios button is for you accidentally fuck up a bios flash
D4V1D#9593: should i still use it |
DarknessFalls229#2286: perhaps yeah, as the bios may be corrupted anyway
D4V1D#9593: for sure
D4V1D#9593: ok
D4V1D#9593: Oh my
D4V1D#9593: Idk about
D4V1D#9593: You
D4V1D#9593: But I think it worked
DarknessFalls229#2286: you wont know for sure until you installed drivers
D4V1D#9593: True
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887006409789693982/20210913_170633.jpg
D4V1D#9593: I've probably jinx it
D4V1D#9593: Should I install the one with the amd software
D4V1D#9593: Or just the driver
DarknessFalls229#2286: perhaps for now just the driver
D4V1D#9593: ok |
D4V1D#9593: Unfortunately I'll be sticking with igpu
D4V1D#9593: While installing drivers it just artifacts and turns to a random colour
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah thats what i expected
DarknessFalls229#2286: id say return it to CeX
D4V1D#9593: Okay
D4V1D#9593: How?
DarknessFalls229#2286: i dunno, walk into a CeX with the receipt and tell them it broke
D4V1D#9593: I threw the box away
DarknessFalls229#2286: ...
D4V1D#9593: I have the invoice on my phone tho
DarknessFalls229#2286: i guess use the invoice then
D4V1D#9593: Okay
DarknessFalls229#2286: dunno if you can send it back through mail
DarknessFalls229#2286: never tried that
D4V1D#9593: Hey @DarknessFalls229 so do you think the gpu is completely dead |
D4V1D#9593: Or unfixable
DarknessFalls229#2286: if its a VRAM issue it might be 'unfixable'
DarknessFalls229#2286: if its a VBIOS issue it might be recoverable
D4V1D#9593: Well
D4V1D#9593: We did use the other bios right
D4V1D#9593: And it did the same thing
DarknessFalls229#2286: wasnt that a different bios function we dont know whether it actually worked?
D4V1D#9593: It's dual bios I think
D4V1D#9593: Hold on let me do some more research
D4V1D#9593: Some people are saying overclock thingy
Foxious#1859: Can't you technically replace a ram chip if you can find a replacement and are good with the iron on a card you **really** want to work
D4V1D#9593: And some are saying when it's lit
D4V1D#9593: It's legacy bios
D4V1D#9593: I mean, yea but my skills aren't good at all for that
DarknessFalls229#2286: hence the quotes around my 'unfixable', you can 'repair' RAM chips or indeed replace them, but the former is a temporary fix and the latter requires high skill and tools |
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887390213322711070/Screenshot_20210914-183124_Reddit.jpg
DarknessFalls229#2286: just tell me whether or not youve tried both bioses
D4V1D#9593: I have
D4V1D#9593: This is the 2nd bios
D4V1D#9593: Cause you can see its lit up
DarknessFalls229#2286: aha, and you know youve tried the other one aswell as it werent lit up?
D4V1D#9593: Ye
DarknessFalls229#2286: then its probably not a bios issue
D4V1D#9593: Ye
DarknessFalls229#2286: kinda rare for both bioses to fail
D4V1D#9593: I changed bios cause I thought it could reset all the oc's
D4V1D#9593: Oh well
D4V1D#9593: I'll see what happens tomorrow when I take the card to its store
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah
DarknessFalls229#2286: if they say it displays, just say that the system crashes whenever a driver is installed |
D4V1D#9593: Yes I will
D4V1D#9593: I'll tell them
D4V1D#9593: This only happens when the drivers are installed
D4V1D#9593: And I cant actually use the card when the drivers are uninstalled
D4V1D#9593: Thanks for your help
D4V1D#9593: I'll tell what happens tomorrow
DarknessFalls229#2286: alright, no problem
inactive#2783: Honestly, I just don’t mess with RAM
inactive#2783: I care about my data too much to risk it with janky RAM
inactive#2783: I’d also get ECC but that’s expensive for DDR4, especially for unreg
Sony PS-FL77#3627: I use jank ram always
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Never used proper ram outside of OEM devices
inactive#2783: Rip
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Am cheap
Sony PS-FL77#3627: this is *Budget Builds* |
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Get on my cheapskate level
inactive#2783: My main system has 3x8GB DDR4
inactive#2783: All from the same kit
Sony PS-FL77#3627: I run Single Channel Memory
Sony PS-FL77#3627: 1x 8GB DDR3
inactive#2783: Same, but I’ll spend the extra $$$ for data safety
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Nahh
Sony PS-FL77#3627: don't have that kinda money
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Use cheap jank
inactive#2783: Rip
Sony PS-FL77#3627: and make it work :D
inactive#2783: I’d just get less RAM then lol
The United States Air Force#7904: She uses 8gb ram soooo
The United States Air Force#7904: Also Europe
The United States Air Force#7904: So like that would make it slightly harder |
inactive#2783: So get 1KB
inactive#2783: Lol
D4V1D#9593: @DarknessFalls229 lol im in the cex store rn I've told the dude what's wrong and he said he's gonna test it, he also said it could be my pc not being able to handle it but I'm pretty sure it can. Anyway Imma wait half an hour
DarknessFalls229#2286: cool
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887723734289485844/Screenshot_20210915-163703_Facebook.jpg
D4V1D#9593: This isn't that bad but that cooler is shit
DarknessFalls229#2286: better than no GPU
DarknessFalls229#2286: RX 470 for 85 quid sounds awesome for me
D4V1D#9593: Ye
serjG#2394: This looks more like one of those china only rx 470d cards
D4V1D#9593: Lol
D4V1D#9593: @DarknessFalls229 apparently it worked for them
D4V1D#9593: Idk dude
Alcyone#2233: sapphire did that to some of their ref models
DarknessFalls229#2286: drivers too? |
D4V1D#9593: Ye
Alcyone#2233: I think they look pretty good
D4V1D#9593: That'd what they said
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmm strange
D4V1D#9593: Shit looked like it was running windows 7 tho
DarknessFalls229#2286: mhmmm
D4V1D#9593: Imma try older drivers
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah try that
DarknessFalls229#2286: of course, do DDU in safe mode just to be sure
D4V1D#9593: Whats the diffrence btw
DarknessFalls229#2286: wdym?
D4V1D#9593: Safe mode
D4V1D#9593: Vs normal
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, it cannot delete everything of drivers that are currently running
D4V1D#9593: Oh |
Alcyone#2233: try 17.7.2 driver. I think that is the last one before vega support
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Well I'm home now
D4V1D#9593: Should I try the 1st pcie slot
D4V1D#9593: @DarknessFalls229 how do i do the safe mode again
DarknessFalls229#2286: from windows press hold shift when you press restart
D4V1D#9593: With the gpu installed?
DarknessFalls229#2286: no
DarknessFalls229#2286: you can install the GPU after DDUing
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: How do I know If its in safe mode
DarknessFalls229#2286: it loads no drivers, black background and usually says 'safe mode' in the bottom right
D4V1D#9593: Oh
D4V1D#9593: Ig I'm not in it
D4V1D#9593: Can I hold shift from start up |
D4V1D#9593: Cause my monitor takes too long
DarknessFalls229#2286: no
DarknessFalls229#2286: if you hold shift while pressing restart it should go into recovery mode, where you can select startup settings in which you can select safe mode
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: I'm gonna test the pcie slot with the gt 710
D4V1D#9593: First
DarknessFalls229#2286: sure
D4V1D#9593: It's not the pcie slot then
D4V1D#9593: Cause its booring
D4V1D#9593: Booting
Alcyone#2233: ooh 12th gen might actually be something
DarknessFalls229#2286: you mean intel?
Alcyone#2233: 9th gen at 5ghz https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887745153874411530/unknown.png
DarknessFalls229#2286: why that as a reference?
Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/797667936578830356/887688861600317460/E_Jh0MjVkAIbhyf.png |
leaked 12600k es at 4.6
Alcyone#2233: oh I had just tabbed to the reference field, the run is my cpu at daily set
DarknessFalls229#2286: 10c 16t
DarknessFalls229#2286: does it use 2 low power cores?
Alcyone#2233: 6c12t +4c4t
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmm neat
Alcyone#2233: 12th gen is big little like a phone soc
DarknessFalls229#2286: will AMD do that too?
DarknessFalls229#2286: or still the conventional, or not known?
Alcyone#2233: the 4 little cores are new atom cores, supposed to be as strong as skylake
D4V1D#9593: Yo
D4V1D#9593: My top pcie slot worked all this time
DarknessFalls229#2286: as strong as skylake hm, if its clocked correctly its pretty good
Alcyone#2233: win 11 got pushed out for the new scheduler that will work with the design |
Alcyone#2233: in theory it should run all your applications on the big cores and all the os background tasks on the little cores to reduce latency
Alcyone#2233: We shall see what amd does. from leaks it seems like they are gonna do some mega cache
D4V1D#9593: Yo darkness
D4V1D#9593: Can I enable safe boot from msconfig
D4V1D#9593: Aka safe boot
D4V1D#9593: Will that work
Alcyone#2233: settings>recovery>advanced startup
Alcyone#2233: then select safe mode with networking from boot options after it restarts
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887747674026172446/unknown.png
Alcyone#2233: that will make it boot in safe mode every time
D4V1D#9593: Oh ok
D4V1D#9593: also
D4V1D#9593: should i update windows
D4V1D#9593: or do it after
DarknessFalls229#2286: do it afterward |
DarknessFalls229#2286: youre busy now with other things
D4V1D#9593: Ye
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887748536412815380/20210915_181530.jpg
DarknessFalls229#2286: troubleshoot
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Im on start up settings
DarknessFalls229#2286: then hit restart, after it restarted you can select safe boot
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887749066983878656/20210915_181743.jpg
D4V1D#9593: F5?
DarknessFalls229#2286: 4
D4V1D#9593: Ok
DarknessFalls229#2286: dont really need networking unless you still need to download drivers
D4V1D#9593: Ye
D4V1D#9593: We're in safe mode
DarknessFalls229#2286: have DDU installed? |
D4V1D#9593: Yr
D4V1D#9593: Yes
D4V1D#9593: From yesterday
DarknessFalls229#2286: use it
DarknessFalls229#2286: i reckon you just need to uninstall AMD drivers and shutdown
D4V1D#9593: Yw
DarknessFalls229#2286: then you can install your GPU
D4V1D#9593: Yes
D4V1D#9593: Wow it knows the vbios and everything
D4V1D#9593: Should I try the first slot?
D4V1D#9593: Idek why it wasn't working last time
DarknessFalls229#2286: i guess you can
DarknessFalls229#2286: maybe clean the slot and card pcie finger a little bit
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Afk I'll be back |
D4V1D#9593: In like 30 mins
D4V1D#9593: Back
D4V1D#9593: Alright
D4V1D#9593: Gpu seems to be working in the top slot
D4V1D#9593: @DarknessFalls229 so which driver should i install instead?
DarknessFalls229#2286: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887756665686995004/unknown.png
D4V1D#9593: I cant find ir
D4V1D#9593: It
D4V1D#9593: Yo
DarknessFalls229#2286: https://www2.ati.com/drivers/whql-win10-64bit-radeon-software-crimson-relive-17.7.2-july27.exe
D4V1D#9593: My pc detected my gpu
D4V1D#9593: Like it flashed a bit
D4V1D#9593: It's definitely not being used tho
DarknessFalls229#2286: oh, that'll be standard windows drivers
D4V1D#9593: Oh nvm it's being used |
D4V1D#9593: When I moved tabs
D4V1D#9593: Okay
DarknessFalls229#2286: you mean the GPU shows utilization?
D4V1D#9593: Ye
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, it drives the display, of course its used
D4V1D#9593: True lmao
DarknessFalls229#2286: if you want you can just use the basic windows drivers for now
DarknessFalls229#2286: theyre a bit old, but if they work
D4V1D#9593: Oh wait will it actually use my gpu?
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887758012406710282/unknown.png

D4V1D#9593: My screen went white again with no drivers installed
D4V1D#9593: How tf did they manage to use it
DarknessFalls229#2286: @Alcyone you think this may be a board or windows issue then?
D4V1D#9593: Lmao I can't even restart my pc |
D4V1D#9593: Everything's gone
D4V1D#9593: It shut down now
D4V1D#9593: By its self
D4V1D#9593: And booting again
D4V1D#9593: Weird
D4V1D#9593: Even the hard drive led stopped
D4V1D#9593: Should I try ram?
D4V1D#9593: The thing is when I used it yesterday with no gpu it worked
D4V1D#9593: Windows doesn't like it
D4V1D#9593: Lemme see if there's artifacts in bios
D4V1D#9593: Nope
DarknessFalls229#2286: how many ram sticks do you have at what capacity?
D4V1D#9593: 4x4gb
D4V1D#9593: Mixed
DarknessFalls229#2286: can you try a single stick |
DarknessFalls229#2286: juuuuuuuust in case
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/887760470843461682/20210915_190259.jpg
D4V1D#9593: I need to remove the cooler then
D4V1D#9593: Fan
D4V1D#9593: Nvm
D4V1D#9593: I can just remove others
DarknessFalls229#2286: id say take them all out and leave one in the second slot from the left
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: All I'm saying is how can the gpu artifacts
D4V1D#9593: By ram
DarknessFalls229#2286: RAM can cause all sorts of strange issues
DarknessFalls229#2286: so im just ruling things out
D4V1D#9593: Ye
D4V1D#9593: Should I swap them |
D4V1D#9593: If I see a problem
D4V1D#9593: Like a white screen
D4V1D#9593: If it is I can probably get a cheap stick of ebay that works
DarknessFalls229#2286: were not assuming none of the sticks work
DarknessFalls229#2286: were just trying to achieve a setup that fully functions
D4V1D#9593: Ye
DarknessFalls229#2286: and some combination of hardware is getting stuck
D4V1D#9593: Ye
D4V1D#9593: Can I use mem86?
DarknessFalls229#2286: i guess
DarknessFalls229#2286: no need to right now
DarknessFalls229#2286: we just want the GPU to fully function right now
D4V1D#9593: Ye
D4V1D#9593: Should I use it instead of letting it sit
DarknessFalls229#2286: yes? |
DarknessFalls229#2286: does it work fine now with drivers installed then?
D4V1D#9593: I haven't installed drivers yet
D4V1D#9593: This happens
D4V1D#9593: There's also a memok function on my motherboard
D4V1D#9593: Should i install newer drivers
DarknessFalls229#2286: just try to see if the 17.7.2 drivers that alcyone said work
D4V1D#9593: I cant click on anything now
D4V1D#9593: I think I've ran out of ram
DarknessFalls229#2286: youd probably have to DDU again, perhaps this time in setting check the one that prevent windows from downloading the GPU driver
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Can I add my ram back now
DarknessFalls229#2286: unless your windows is bloated as shit you shouldnt run out of ram with 4GB
DarknessFalls229#2286: no, we first must get a working setup
D4V1D#9593: I had discord and Google open
D4V1D#9593: Ok |
D4V1D#9593: Where do i do that?
DarknessFalls229#2286: in safe mode
D4V1D#9593: Yup
D4V1D#9593: Done that
D4V1D#9593: Ohhhh
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: F3?
DarknessFalls229#2286: no??
DarknessFalls229#2286: _safe mode_
D4V1D#9593: Oh
D4V1D#9593: I'm in safe mode already
D4V1D#9593: Where's the setting that prevents windows
DarknessFalls229#2286: somewhere at the bottom if you havent gone through all of them
D4V1D#9593: Bottom of where
D4V1D#9593: I cant really see anything |
DarknessFalls229#2286: the DDU settings
D4V1D#9593: Oh options ok
D4V1D#9593: Found ir
D4V1D#9593: It
D4V1D#9593: Okay so do I do clean and restart again
DarknessFalls229#2286: yes i guess
D4V1D#9593: Question
D4V1D#9593: If my lowest ram speed is 1600mhz
D4V1D#9593: Why is it running at 1333mhz
DarknessFalls229#2286: because it is not set to 1600?
D4V1D#9593: Okay so I'll change that in bios
DarknessFalls229#2286: when all things are running fine again you can enable your XMP profile
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Also I cant install the drivers
D4V1D#9593: Because amd doesn't allow me to on the thing you linkes |
D4V1D#9593: Plus I can't see the previous drivers
DarknessFalls229#2286: just search up "AMD 17.7.2 drivers"
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Okay I'm installing
D4V1D#9593: Custom install?
DarknessFalls229#2286: doesnt really matter
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Restart
D4V1D#9593: Ing
D4V1D#9593: Making it play a youtube video currently
DarknessFalls229#2286: doing more that it did before?
D4V1D#9593: Hm?
D4V1D#9593: Yes
D4V1D#9593: Much more
D4V1D#9593: I didnt crash |
DarknessFalls229#2286: mhmm
DarknessFalls229#2286: maybe it is RAM then...
D4V1D#9593: While installing driver
DarknessFalls229#2286: can you run a GPU stress test?
D4V1D#9593: Sure
D4V1D#9593: Oh wow
D4V1D#9593: It's actually running it dude
DarknessFalls229#2286: huh neat
D4V1D#9593: Ye
DarknessFalls229#2286: well then
DarknessFalls229#2286: start putting stick back in one by one
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Btw
DarknessFalls229#2286: perhaps its a faulty stick, perhaps it was a loose connection
D4V1D#9593: The psu is dipping to 11.5 |
DarknessFalls229#2286: probably fine
D4V1D#9593: 12v rail
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Should I continue running fur mark
D4V1D#9593: Or anything
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, since it aint crashing
DarknessFalls229#2286: prolly you can exit fur mark, let it cool a little then shut down windows
DarknessFalls229#2286: add another stick of the same colour in dual channel and try again
D4V1D#9593: Yea I just did
D4V1D#9593: 8gb rn
D4V1D#9593: Benchmarking it in furmark atm
D4V1D#9593: It did it
DarknessFalls229#2286: """"""""It did it""""""""
D4V1D#9593: Lmao
D4V1D#9593: It managed to finish it with no crashes |
DarknessFalls229#2286: alright good
DarknessFalls229#2286: try and add another stick
D4V1D#9593: Ol
D4V1D#9593: Ok
DarknessFalls229#2286: sure it may not be dual channel then, but to see if its stable
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: 12 gigs
D4V1D#9593: Managed to complete it
DarknessFalls229#2286: then add the last stick
DarknessFalls229#2286: either its faulty or we can conclude that there was a loose connection
D4V1D#9593: Ye
D4V1D#9593: 16gb
D4V1D#9593: I might run mem86 afterwards just incase
DarknessFalls229#2286: in prime95 you can also set how much RAM it should test
D4V1D#9593: Yes |
D4V1D#9593: I've done it before
D4V1D#9593: It ran perf
D4V1D#9593: Ran well
DarknessFalls229#2286: hm
DarknessFalls229#2286: i guess you can enable XMP and go on with life
D4V1D#9593: Thank you so much dude
D4V1D#9593: Can you help me with my xmp?
DarknessFalls229#2286: go into the bios
DarknessFalls229#2286: somewhere in RAM settings there should be an XMP toggle
D4V1D#9593: Thanks!
D4V1D#9593: Thanks as well @Alcyone
D4V1D#9593: Imma try splitgate now
D4V1D#9593: Oops

D4V1D#9593: This isn't god
D4V1D#9593: Good
Grockle#7163: I agree, it certainly isn't god
D4V1D#9593: Lmao
D4V1D#9593: @Alcyone any idea on what i should do
D4V1D#9593: or should i just bin it
Alcyone#2233: return the gpu to cex
D4V1D#9593: I tried today
D4V1D#9593: the guys a waffler
D4V1D#9593: hes saying my pc is the problem
D4V1D#9593: and it cant handle it
D4V1D#9593: idk |
D4V1D#9593: Idek if hes using drivers
D4V1D#9593: i asked him
D4V1D#9593: and he said how else am i supposed to test it
D4V1D#9593: so like
D4V1D#9593: idk
Alcyone#2233: say it doesnt work in your pc and you want a refund
D4V1D#9593: Should i take the gpu out of my system
D4V1D#9593: Ye ok
D4V1D#9593: ill show him pictures as well
Alcyone#2233: I doubt they are properly testing the gpu
D4V1D#9593: yea
D4V1D#9593: They just let it ran on windows
Alcyone#2233: probably just plugged it in, saw the desktop and said, yep it works
D4V1D#9593: Like just sit there
D4V1D#9593: yup |
Alcyone#2233: cex is like the gamestop of hardware
D4V1D#9593: ye
D4V1D#9593: why did i buy from there you may ask?
D4V1D#9593: they had cheap gpu prices
Alcyone#2233: cx600 should have no problem with a 280x
Alcyone#2233: and power related crashes will usually shut the whole pc off when the psu resets
D4V1D#9593: mhm
D4V1D#9593: also
D4V1D#9593: In this the screen turned white, recovered, then artifacted and froze
Deleted User#0000: What would be a good replacement for an asus prime x470-pro? $155 is my limit for motherboards.
Deleted User#0000: Did find an asrock x370 taichi for $130 but I can’t jump on that cause I need to sell stuff before I can buy a board
Din (Mája)#0264: Isn't that mobo 1st gen Ryzen only? Maybe I'm wrong, but I have a similar mobo in MicroATX form and idk if it's possible to put inside the latest gens
Deleted User#0000: the x370 taichi? that had unofficial ryzen 5000 support before amd tried to sue them, at least from what I've been told
Deleted User#0000: regardless I just got my 3600 so I'm not planning to go to Zen 3
Deleted User#0000: x470-pro does all ryzen generations I believe. i know that it axed bulldozer support at some point but that doesn't matter cause bulldozer is junk |
Deleted User#0000: My old board (b450 tomahawk) doesn't support zen 3. i'm not buying another one of those though cause the sound crapped out on my last one
inactive#2783: I have an ASUS TUF GAMING x570-Plus (WiFI)
inactive#2783: it's pretty nice and I think you can get it within your budget if you go for the non-WiFi model and go open box/refurb/used
inactive#2783: It supports every Ryzen gen with updates but it supports the 3xxx series out of the box
Din (Mája)#0264: ah okay, I meant I have the Asus one, but good to know
Deleted User#0000: How much for them?
D4V1D#9593: Okay so
D4V1D#9593: I was running valorant
D4V1D#9593: Apparently there were some driver issues saying it too old and that

DarknessFalls229#2286: there really is something fundamentally wrong
D4V1D#9593: Yea
DarknessFalls229#2286: currently i see two options
DarknessFalls229#2286: stop using the R9 280x or try to see whether 2x4GBs of RAM makes any different as opposed to your 4 sticks
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: I thought this would be the last time I'd open this pc up cause of yesterday lmao
D4V1D#9593: Maybe it cant handle 16gb?
D4V1D#9593: Idk
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmm how about this |

D4V1D#9593: Nope
DarknessFalls229#2286: sigh, probably a reinstall of the drivers is required again
D4V1D#9593: Damn |
D4V1D#9593: Ok
DarknessFalls229#2286: im getting tired of it and im not even the one executing the reinstall
D4V1D#9593: Lmao
D4V1D#9593: Im only getting tired of turning it on again and removing the side panel
D4V1D#9593: Same drivers?
D4V1D#9593: Some people are speculating it's my psy
D4V1D#9593: Psu
D4V1D#9593: But I've been using it for a whole month
D4V1D#9593: Stress test or not
D4V1D#9593: Anyways I've finished the ddu
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah same 17.7.2 drivers
D4V1D#9593: Kk
D4V1D#9593: I've installed the drivers
D4V1D#9593: Should we try again?
D4V1D#9593: Nah dude @DarknessFalls229 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/888085932388008018/20210916_163607.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/888085932962623528/20210916_163604.jpg |
D4V1D#9593: Went purple then crashed
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmmmm, you can still try your blue sticks, but other than that not much to do
D4V1D#9593: Clear cmos
D4V1D#9593: ? Or update my bios
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah you can clear CMOS, then update your bios then try your blue slots with the blue sticks
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: How do i do that?
D4V1D#9593: Again
D4V1D#9593: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/888086496895172648/20210916_163831.jpg
DarknessFalls229#2286: go to your motherboards support page and download the bios updater, the you can usually in the bios enter EZflash or whatever
D4V1D#9593: There's also a standby light
D4V1D#9593: Ye
D4V1D#9593: Bro
D4V1D#9593: As soon as I went in full screen
D4V1D#9593: It just died |
DarknessFalls229#2286: hmmm
D4V1D#9593: Should I also wait for the standby light to go off before
D4V1D#9593: I clear the cmos
DarknessFalls229#2286: eh sure
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: How long do I leave the cmos out for?
DarknessFalls229#2286: just a few secs, until the system power bleeds out
D4V1D#9593: Oh
D4V1D#9593: I did it when the light was off
DarknessFalls229#2286: then why ask?
D4V1D#9593: Cause I thought I'd have to do it when all power was out from the mobo
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, thats somewhat what i meant with 'until the system power bleeds out'
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: Sorry
D4V1D#9593: Id have to take the gpu out for this |
D4V1D#9593: Should I?
D4V1D#9593: Ok I've taken it out
D4V1D#9593: Apparently a hard reset takes like 5 mins
D4V1D#9593: @DarknessFalls229 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/888092537926066217/20210916_170208.jpg

D4V1D#9593: I've changed the bios
D4V1D#9593: Cmos sorry
D4V1D#9593: Changed the ram sticks to blue
D4V1D#9593: But I haven't installed the bios software yet
DarknessFalls229#2286: try that next
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: I don't know what it means by please enter setup
D4V1D#9593: To recover bios setting |
D4V1D#9593: Oh
D4V1D#9593: Ok
DarknessFalls229#2286: thats because CMOS was reset
D4V1D#9593: Ye
D4V1D#9593: How do I put the time on and stuff
DarknessFalls229#2286: windows will sync it, dont worry
D4V1D#9593: Ok
D4V1D#9593: I only held off of installing the bios because I was scared I was gonna brick the bios
D4V1D#9593: So can you link the correct drivers and stuff please?
D4V1D#9593: My mobo is the p8z77-v lx
DarknessFalls229#2286: https://www.asus.com/SupportOnly/P8Z77V_LX/HelpDesk_BIOS/
D4V1D#9593: Thanks
DarknessFalls229#2286: unpack it, put it on a USB and go into bios into the flashing utility
