OK so it installed windows

#

But at the same time

deep sapphire
#

just go shoot it and buy a PS4

narrow juniper
#

Repaired driver D

deep sapphire
potent arrow
#

I have no idea whats happening

latent grotto
#

same

potent arrow
#

I had less confusion trying to rebuild my transmission

narrow juniper
#

So what happened

#

Is that after copying the windows files

#

The installation was gonna start

#

But out of nowhere it started repairing drive D

#

And then it came back to the installation

deep sapphire
#

interesting

#

never seen that before

#

maybe it detects AMD parts in your computer so it tried to repair them

hard drift
#

Lies

narrow juniper
#

I want to break something I just connected to the internet like a dumbass...

deep sapphire
#

whats the problem with that

narrow juniper
#

They're gonna install all their dumbshit now...

deep sapphire
#

thats fine

#

just install the Radeon driver over it

#

it should replace it

#

should

#

wouldnt you agree @hard drift

hard drift
#

🤨

deep sapphire
#

god im so glad I use intel and nvidia, never have any problems ever

#

I remember the days

latent grotto
#

i did mine without internet just so i could have my file path for my user account actually show my name properly instead of leaving one letter off

deep sapphire
#

using AMD and ATI

latent grotto
narrow juniper
#

The processor is good it's just the gpu drivers are made by slapping ass on the keyboard

deep sapphire
#

BSOD all the time

hard drift
narrow juniper
#

Bro everytime I see a blue screen I stop breathing

deep sapphire
#

weird random problems

#

then my british friend stubbs convinced me

#

he was like

#

Radeon is dog shit

#

go nvidia

#

and I was like alright I trust you

#

so I got 2 GTX 580s

#

never had a single problem with drivers ever

#

not

#

one

#

time

hard drift
#

Showing your age buddy :p

deep sapphire
#

yeah im ancient

hard drift
#

Nvidia fanboy smh

deep sapphire
#

I use to be team red

#

thats why when I warn you guys

#

its from the heart

narrow juniper
#

Fuck team red

deep sapphire
#

I owned a 9700 Pro

#

X1950 Pro

latent grotto
deep sapphire
#

4870

#

5970

#

the only card of that bunch that worked without flaw was the 4870

latent grotto
#

and then you had to give up being an adventurer

deep sapphire
#

that was a decent card

narrow juniper
deep sapphire
#

any game I play

#

I just log on

narrow juniper
deep sapphire
#

and play

#

thats it

#

nothing more

narrow juniper
#

Any game I play I have to do 50 research papers to make sure my drivers don't brick my gpu

deep sapphire
#

RX 5700?

narrow juniper

deep sapphire
#

ah

#

same dog shit

#

little navi was just flat out bad

narrow juniper
#

I'm about to kill someone

#

WINDOWS IS STILL ON MY SSD

#

BELEODOEIZISJDNDLELDF

deep sapphire
#

did you click the wrong drive

narrow juniper
#

OK so apparently

#

They changed

#

My m2 to C:

#

And my ssd to D

#

I don't even know how that shit works

#

No it's my 240gb ssd

deep sapphire
#

C should always be your default boot letter

narrow juniper
#

I don't understand do I delete all the windows shit and drivers from the ssd?

deep sapphire
#

I wonder why B was never used, I know A was for floppy drives

#

what used B

#

those files arent attached to the root

#

so it doesnt matter

#

you can keep them if you want

#

get rid of them

#

if its old files

#

I would save them

narrow juniper
#

I'm analyzing the ssd

deep sapphire
#

atleast save what you want

narrow juniper
#

Maybe it has an issue or something

deep sapphire
#

I still think its radeon

#

but yeah

narrow juniper
#

Screen went off and on 2 times? 😨

deep sapphire
#

hard drift
deep sapphire
#

jaunty light
#

alright hank I need you to get me an rtx 3090

narrow juniper
#

Yeah

#

Idk how this works at all

deep sapphire
#

right click your desktop and go to display options

narrow juniper
#

I can't even go on the 2nd monitor rn

deep sapphire
#

you can change the orientation and resolution from there

#

you just drag the 2nd monitor to where you want it

#

so if its to the right of you

narrow juniper
#

Yeah but how do I do the thing

deep sapphire
#

just move it over to 2

narrow juniper
#

Where I make my mouse

#

Go on the 2nd

#

Monitor

#

It looked cool

deep sapphire
#

I think its window key + P?

narrow juniper
#

I want to do that

deep sapphire
#

yeah click that

#

then extend

#

deep sapphire
#

hard drift
deep sapphire
#

chevrolet trucks

#

and cute anime girls

jaunty light
#

im sorry I own a 2002 ford

deep sapphire
#

😔

narrow juniper
#

I did extend but I still can't do on to my 2nd monitor

#

I'm lost how does this work D:

deep sapphire
#

thats because the layout is probably reversed

#

you have to move it

#

right click desktop

#

go to display

#

drag it over to where it is

narrow juniper
#

OH IT WORKED

deep sapphire
#

god bless

#

narrow juniper
#

Feel so cool rn 😼

And thanks for the help

deep sapphire

odd sand
#

@narrow juniper Did you reinstall windows then or just do a repair?

potent arrow
#

Buy a honda civic instead

hard drift
narrow juniper
#

Repair didn't work

deep sapphire
narrow juniper
#

Windows just died out of nowhere

deep sapphire
narrow juniper
hard drift
deep sapphire
#

WE READ LEFT TO RIGHT

#

YOU PUT THE 2ND DISPLAY TO THE RIGHT

narrow juniper
#

Listen I got an excuse

hard drift
#

No it’s on the left

narrow juniper
#

I don't have enough space on my right

#

😔

hard drift
#

But i drag to the right of my first one

deep sapphire
#

oh okay understood

#

oh I get it

hard drift
#

Lol

deep sapphire
#

AMD users put it to the left because they know buying AMD products isnt right

narrow juniper
#

Wait do I need to reinstall my drivers and stuff now?

hard drift
deep sapphire
#

LMAO

deep sapphire
#

you wont get good gaming performance

#

unless you do

#

the stock drivers are just basic ones to get it working

narrow juniper
deep sapphire
#

HAHAHA

narrow juniper
#

I CAN NOW PLAY AND HAVE YOUTUBE OR DISCORD ON THE OTHER SCREEN

#

LET'S GOOOOO

#

THA TS ALL I WANTED

hard drift
latent grotto
#

they're both going to be expensive now

narrow juniper
hard drift
#

Especially with MCM coming

latent grotto
#

cuz they realized people will do whatever it takes to buy a gpu

deep sapphire
#

Wtf is MCM

#

god I’m so sick of this crypto shit

#

It’s just gambling at this point and people who buy into it are idiots

#

I don’t even care if that pisses anyone off

narrow juniper
#

OK now my mic is dead

#

💀

deep sapphire
#

check sound settings, make sure the right input device is selected

narrow juniper
#

It is... That's the worst part

#

It feels like I'm talking from a submarine

latent grotto
#

does it need drivers?

narrow juniper
#

I don't even remember I need to find the thing that can check all my drivers but I forgot it's name

modest moss
#

it's your birthday?

modest moss
narrow juniper
#

Oh yeah there's audio drivers

#

Thanks

potent arrow
modest moss
#

happy birthday!

potent arrow
#

im old ;-;

modest moss
#

...

#

I'm 47 this month

#

get fucked

#

you're a baby

#

barely older than bidori

hard drift
hard drift
#

It’s multiple gpu dies similar to chiplets for cpus

narrow juniper
#

Tuturuuu

hard drift
#

Intels version is tiles and that’s all i really know in terms of naming aside from mcm

latent grotto
hard drift
#

Lol no

#

That’s what you get because mcm gpus is the last thing you need given your portable sun cpu

latent grotto
hard drift
latent grotto
#

good idea i'll go borrow some hamsters from SE

potent arrow
modest moss
narrow juniper
#

why does my 2nd screen look so bad i thought ips was prettier than TN

#

😨

latent grotto
#

i mean

#

there are bad ips panels too

narrow juniper
#

can you give me a video or something to test

latent grotto
narrow juniper
#

THE BACKLIGHT BLEED IS SO DISGUSTING

latent grotto
#

what did you buy anyway

narrow juniper
#

m27Q

#

the half left side

#

the glow is so high

#

🤢

#

ima test out these things

#

black equalized and stuff

#

idk what that means but ima try

latent grotto
narrow juniper
#

so its best use is gaming like i thought

#

but the glow didnt have to be so present

#

🤢

#

it feels so weird to look at a 1440p ips

#

why is everything small?

latent grotto
#

it felt weird for a moment for me too when i switched to 1440p

narrow juniper
#

did u also get the smaller windows and stuff?

#

like i can read theres no issue

#

its just weird

#

seeing small windows

latent grotto
#

yes

narrow juniper
#

even when im on fullscreen discord

#

the letters are so small

#

but i can read them so clearly

#

its soooo weird

latent grotto
#

i had to change the size of text for some stuff cuz it was too small for my liking

narrow juniper
#

i dont know if its good or bad

#

its just weird

#

some people told me theres a big diff between 1080 and 1440p

#

and i can't seem to see it

#

maybe when im playing or watchin vids?

untold onyx
#

The best approach is to match your resolution to your view size. 1440 tends to work best for 27" to 32" (roughly) Smaller than that and you're squinting to read text and similar. Over that and it starts to blur.

narrow juniper
#

the thing is

#

both monitors

#

are 27

#

one is 1080 and the other 1440p

#

but the 1440p just feels weird to me not better or worse

#

but its waaaayyy brighter

latent grotto
#

colors should be better than TN

narrow juniper
#

i dont really know what are good colors or not honestly

#

thats why im kind of confused

#

unless its bad i cant know

modest moss
#

probably need to adjust gamma and such

#

also I would never use mismatch monitors personally

untold onyx
modest moss
#

confuses my eyes and brain

narrow juniper
narrow juniper
#

theres different modes

#

nice

modest moss
#

rtfm my guy, lol

narrow juniper
#

i copied some settings i found on reddit

#

everything is grey... i need to find something myself 😹

modest moss
#

read the fucking manual lol

narrow juniper
#

i can just fiddle with the settings?

modest moss
#

sure, if you like

narrow juniper
#

the settings are not that complicated

#

i just need to find the right setup for me

modest moss
#

windows settings make a huge difference too

narrow juniper
#

oh yeah i forgot about them

narrow juniper
#

i think i found my thing ima test it out for a few days it still feels weird

#

thanks to everyone who helped me lol

#

took me 6h when i thought i would be done in 2h max

deep sapphire
#

@hard drift

#

what did he mean by this?

#

oh that was you?

modest moss
#

well yeah because you chose to reinstall rather than being patient and letting Hank figure out how to repair

deep sapphire
deep sapphire
#

#

WHAT YOU DO

5 LUG NUTS OFF

#

YOU PULL THE WHEEL

#

YOU TAKE

#

2 RETAINING BOLTS OUT OF THE BRAKE CALIPERS

modest moss
#

you take it to a guy not afraid of the cold

deep sapphire
#

YOU TAKE THE PADS OUT

#

YOU MOVE THE CALIPER OUT OF THE WAY

#

YOU TAKE A HAMMER, USUALLY A DEADBLOW SO YOU DONT WARP ANYTHING

modest moss
deep sapphire
#

AND YOU HIT THE ROTOR

#

ON THE 9 - 3 - 12 - 6 ROTATION

#

UNTIL IT COMES LOOSE

narrow juniper

narrow juniper
#

deep sapphire
#

TN is gross

narrow juniper
#

i mean

#

i still find tn good

deep sapphire
#

I hate the washed up colors and bad viewing angles

narrow juniper
#

i honestly dont mind them or i got used to them idk

deep sapphire
#

IPS has caught up to the point unless you need 300hz I don’t see the point in going TN

deep sapphire
#

I’m just sitting here

hard drift
deep sapphire
#

By myself

#

No bunny on my lap rn

narrow juniper
#

i have 170hz on my ips and 165 on my tn lol

deep sapphire
#

Noice

#

I’m only 144hz

#

Any faster and my old eyes would melt

narrow juniper
#

i didnt play for 24h why did i get almost no rested xp D:

#

not even half a level...

#

lmao

#

i remember when i switched from 30 to 165

#

i was so happy

modest moss
#

I'm just running a peasant 27" 1080p 75hz IPS

#

it's gorgeous though

narrow juniper
#

yeah so i think i understand why i saw the ips weird

#

its way darker

#

like the colors and stuff

#

compared to the tn

#

thats why it felt sooo weird looking at it

modest moss
#

up that gamma bruh

narrow juniper
#

i dont mean that type of dark lol

#

i mean like the colors and stuff

modest moss
#

oh you mean not washed out?

narrow juniper
#

yeah i thought before looked great

#

but now its a lot better

#

i might sell my tn pannel and get like a good ips only for reading and watching videos ngl

#

since thats what im gonna mostly do

#

but not before i bought a nvidia gpu

#

dont know if my amd gpu will just nuke the entire continent if i change monitors again

unreal wind
#

hi i keep getting directx error

narrow juniper
#

switch to 9

unreal wind
#

what does that change

narrow juniper
#

idk but that fixed it for me

unreal wind
#

performance wise, aside from crashing lol

narrow juniper
#

performance i didnt see a difference

narrow juniper
#

ok i need to calm down its not because i have 2 screens that i have to use both of them at the same time

#

calm down me

#

its impossible learn to ignore 1

modern iris
#

I MIGHT have discovered whats causing my DX11 crash....not sure yet till time tells

#

But I noticed Freesync Premium Pro on the monitor was really messing with some stuff. Especially Halo Infinite and clashing with HDR detection and colors.

#

And causing my GPU drivers to be unstable

#

so that MAY be the issue xD

teal fable
untold onyx
#

You know you're bad when the front panel mess gets rated higher than you. 😛

modern iris
#

LMAO

teal fable
#

haha thats from a personal recent experience with the front usb connector xD

#

that blue one is a piece of shit to get in

untold onyx
#

I can sympathize, really I can. But I've never had an issue myself.

teal fable
#

think most of my problem was trying to plug it after already fitting the board and the fans

narrow juniper
#

front panel connectors are honestly not that bad

#

1st time it was hell

#

but 2nd time i didnt care i was able to get it done really fast

teal fable
#

well most of them are ok its just that blue one its such a tight fit xD

#

luckily i have plenty of rear usb xD

narrow juniper
#

true on my h510

#

but on my lian li dynamic

#

that thing was a spaceship

#

so much space

#

really enjoyed to build on that case

deep sapphire
#

I had to service an old thinkpad one time and I swear I could not get the fucker to go

#

I was worried I bent a pin or something

#

you have to really push them in

modest moss
#

is now a good time to tell the french guy I'm english?

teal fable
#

i have a lian li xD

narrow juniper
narrow juniper
teal fable
#

so where the fans sit on the side of the motherboard that was my issue i had to go in at an angle and i bent the pins,

#

same case

modest moss
teal fable
#

i can probably bend them back and fix them but i just dont want to xD

narrow juniper
#

i bended my rear case

#

like the how its called

#

i was getting it off and i bended the left side

#

and it wouldnt go back in

teal fable
#

😦

narrow juniper
#

so i got tired

#

punched it in

#

and it worked

#

teal fable

Gamer juice for reference

narrow juniper

hmmmmm

teal fable

@sly elk I stuck all my boxes in the big box xD

@potent arrow if you leave my friend request on pending much longer I'm gonna cancel it and be salty

deep sapphire

tbf I dont even realize when people send me a fr unless I see it from my phone

sly elk

ahhh

odd sand
#

Otherwise tape a moving blanket around it and stash it somewhere it won't slide around. They're not that fragile other than maybe the HDD heh

odd sand
#

Today was supposed to be my last day at my current contract, but it was extended 2 more weeks bc of complications. Now I have to stick around dealing with Log4j bs sigh

#

Mgmt losing their minds having us run scan after scan after scan bc "you never know" MiqoteDepressed

#

Despite already going over what servers had vulnerable versions or not

sly elk
#

my condolences

#

is your next job through the same agency or something?

odd sand
#

Same contracting company, yes.

sly elk

if anyone wants a very overpriced rx6600

I try to stay out of it as much as possible bc I'm still mostly WFH and they don't bother having an open Teams call or any other type of voicechat so it's really hard for me to contribute bc they don't answer questions for an hour sometimes.

Whereas in person I can just walk up and ask a quick question

narrow juniper
#

Why I can look at my nvme on windows but not on bios 🤨

#

I think this mb needs a bios update

#

That I'm going to do rn

narrow juniper
#

I literally updated bios what more do you want from me 😭

narrow juniper
#

this is so weird

#

its booting on my nvme but on my bios it says it boots on the ssd

#

what

#

i will stop asking questions

#

if it works

#

it works

I'm trying to make a thread for my private Discord server for a movie that recently came out so people in the main channel can avoid spoilers.

#

But I don't want people scrolling through the chat log to accidentally see a post from the chat with a spoiler in it when they see the most recent message posted there.

#

Is there any way to hide the most recent message posted in a thread from the main channel? ~.~

@strong perchku i watched a video recently that the nvme is sometimes in a different place to the normal ssd/hdd

narrow juniper
#

But on the bios priority is my ssd

#

However

#

I'm still booting on my nvme

#

I will not ask any questions as long as this works

#

But I might try something

#

Next year umaru

But Ima try it tomorrow

teal fable
#

I’m sure they will be away around that there’s so many builds where they plonk several in

sly elk
#

that's because windows does stupid things with the boot loader

#

like if you have multiple SSDs and have linux on one, and then install windows on another, sometimes it'll go install the bootloader on the linux drive instead, pointing at the windows ssd, because why not

On a Side Note, does the game run porperly without hassle on Linux?

Using proton or something

modest moss

I dunno about no hassle, but some people have got it to run on proton

neat hatch

Uh so i hit reset to system config

#

Now i have to redownload

Is that meant to happen ? I thought it only changes my settings back to stock

modest moss

I have no idea where you did that, or why

#

before you redownload, try this

here

thats the launcher i used before

its where i first encountered the issue

then i tried original launcher, same issue

then i hit the two buttons at the bottom and now it deleted my entire ff folder and makes me redownload it seems

Any1 got good monitor recommendations for this game? I have a 25" IPS 1920x1080 240hz freesync monitor but the game doesn't look good imo. Would a 2k or higher resolution make the game look more noticeably better?

dull garnet
#

doubt it

#

the game is pretty old

#

maybe look into gshade

fervent field
#

1440p is fine

#

game's antialiasing is borked tho so

#

nothing u can do to avoid most of the jaggies other than running 4k or 1080p/1440p with DSR which is very very wasteful performance wise

should have junked it and bought a nice EV

I want an EV truck but the market basically doesnt exist rn or you'd be waiting over a year to take delivery

the market rn just sucks, you cant find anything at a good price

so even though thats a lot of money to repair it, its probably still cheaper to keep my shit running lol

Thanks it was so stressful the bend on that cable and the gap I had to work with behind 😢😢

Yeah, I would like to clean mine up, but it will require buying replacement cables. The soft cloth kind are the only ones you can really bend more easily

i struggle to justify the cost of fancy cabling 👀

That doesn’t exist anymore

well, i have a modular psu at least

deep sapphire

buys modular PSU
ends up using all the cables anyway

#

😔

dull garnet
#

no

#

on my old antec psu i took the thing apart, snipped some cables off and then heat shrinked the nubs to prevent shorts

deep sapphire
#

Good idea

#

It’s antec

dull garnet
#

hey antec used to be decent

deep sapphire

In 2008

this wasn't far from then

it was probably 09

deep sapphire

I owned an m9 case

It was okay

And bending cables into the conduits can be really hard. I should see if I can actually remove the conduit cover and just route the stuff down there and tie it down first

sly elk
#

ah $30**

dull garnet
sly elk
#

purely aesthetic

#

the cables that come with evga psus are ugly

#

but it only makes sense if you enjoy looking inside your computer, yes

#

if you're going to toss it in a fractal with no side window and stick it in the corner on the floor under your desk, then yea who cares

dull garnet

sly elk
#

mine were ok though

odd sand
#

Mine is as well, I don't get to look at it heh. But that's bc our current apartment is so small. After I move I'm getting a new larger desk and should be back up to like 1150sqft instead of 800sqft

jaunty light
#

blaziken_trying_to_not_say_XD just looking, it's cheaper to buy the entire kit + a 3rd PCIe than to just buy 3 PCI-e and 1 24pin for the visible cables in my case

#

ssg

#

although since I'm most likely to get an FE it doesn't matter

sly elk
#

you can probablyu find a kit that comes with a 12 pin 😄

#

it looked nice until i got my 3080ti 😄

i bought a kit with 8+6+2, and the 3080ti has 3x8

ya exactly I wanna avoid that godawful train of PCIe

on the other hand the 3090 puts it in a terrible spot

there's nothing wrong with it

I mean

I like the chrome feet

I don't care much for the fractal logo on the front

#

but there's nothing wrong with the case itself otherwise

dull garnet
#

i think you can remove that should you desire

sly elk
#

it's just the poster child case of builds with brown noctua fans who proudly label "no RGB" on /r/pcmr 😄

#

but yea aesthetically there's nothing wrong with it 😄

#

i'm not sure i've ever seen a pc case that bothered me that much

#

where i was like "wow why would anyone build in that"

dull garnet
#

mmm noctua

#

another thing i can't justify to myself

sly elk
#

also the way you're using your cables it looks fine

dull garnet
#

i'd buy a $30 12 pin cable for my evga psu if i was willing to throw away money

sly elk
#

here's what happens with mine hahaha

#

also for some reason I only had 2 8-pin singles, so my 3rd cable has an unused branch on it 😄

dull garnet
#

i would have just cable tied those

sly elk
#

that';s a good idea 🙂

I need assistance.... does anyone know how to register their PSN Endwalker Purchase to an already existing Service Account? I've been playing on PC for a long time. I had purchased and registered PC to Service Account that has all my characters.. However; recent PC complications have reared an ugly head. Until I can purchase a new Rig I thought: "I have a PS4!, I could use that to continue playing!" I had made sure my PSN is linked to my SE Account. I have the game ready to play on PS4 but it can't find the existing Square Ennix Service Account? And since it was a digital download through the Playstation Store I don't know where to look for a Registration Code to add this to the existing Service Account. OR am I unable to link PC and PS4 to same Service Account?

modest moss
#

you definitely can have PC and PS4 on the same account, I do

#

I can't help with your issue though, it makes no sense to me, sorry

#

I bought physical ps4 copy so I had a code to add to my mogstation and was just able to put in my username and password on the ps4 XIV launcher

#

maybe something funky happened and you bought the digital ps4 copy as a fresh account, I dunno

you may be able to get a physical copy from somewhere else, try ebay or greenmangaming or something
