this isnt going to end well
You making bbq?
what have i done
Hey guys; in preparation for Windows 11, I discovered that my PC is running in CSM, instead of the UEFI option it has. One disk is in GPT mode (my storage drive) whilst two others, including my system drive runs with MBR, so they need to be swapped, in order for Win 11 to run. I'm gonna try to use the MBR2GP.exe tool, but I have no idea if doing so will fuck me over, and make me buy a new copy of windows. Is it safe? Have y'all done it?
wouldnt risk it
Is there anything I can do?
i dont know im good with windows 10
would you risk your computer for an 11 after the word windows
There are other features that come from swapping my system from CSM to UEFI
Plus, platform unity, since I have disks of both MBR and GPT in my system
ill just see what google says
MBR2GPT.exe is a command line tool which is located in the System32 folder. With it, you can effectively and non-destructively convert a Windows 10 OS disk from MBR (for Legacy BIOS) to GPT partition style (for UEFI) without modifying/deleting any data on the disk or making a clean installation of Windows 10.
So it should be fine?
check around other websites to see if it IS safe.
Microsoft says it works, I'll check further around
gpu temp
the fuck
Yeah thought so
wait that means my old old computer with a gtx 650 was at 95+ degrees on crysis????
Those old cards might have had a higher max temperature
the pc fans were already loud you couldnt tell
ram
yeah all 32 gigabytes
Wonder how long they will last 
can ram even get hot
Does anyone know if there are better headset alternatives for PS5 than the PS5 Pulse3D Wireless Headset? Around the same price range
Update
After doing further research, I went ahead and pulled the trigger, and can confirm that the software works, and did not lose me my data
cool
i recommend hyperx cloud 2
I'll have a look, appreciate it!
ive got a question me and my friend are trying to play bf4 we both changed our names but now it wont let us join each other we have restarted our games pcs all of it but its just not working
Maybe something hasn’t caught up yet. Have you had any luck trying to join your friend via Battlelog?
Uh no could you tell me how to? We usually use origin
Try steel series arctis 7 they are amazing I use them
Go here and Sign in - it will ask you to use your origin account.
https://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/
Then on the right side of the screen after you are logged in your Origin friends show on the list. You can click a join button from there.
Wired?
What if you 200-400$ for head phones
Still those
Wireless
Eh I think they are about 100 bucks
I just want to have something really high end
Idk if you can spend that much on some headphones there are probably some better options
But I was saying for me they work well and I’ve had my for about 3 years without any issues
sick thanks ill try it!
Sony wh-1000xm4. I use xm3 which is the same but older. Totally worth it.
wh1000xm4 is not high end
If you kinda want a decent headphone the hifiman he-x4 on drop is 129 and should much better then wh1000xm4 due to it being open backs
and due to it being planar magnetics you also get nice bass compared to other open backs.
Might need an amp but I think pc can run it without one
Should I sell my ps4 slim to get more money for the ps5?
No I think keep it until ps5 are available
Yeah rn they are so hard to get plus my parents are telling me to wait until xmas
Can we get a bf4 story that works?
anybody knows why my memory clock is locked at 2000mhz?
they are two 2666mhz modules
or is that only gpu memory?
id assume the gpu memory is the one on the top
but idk
nvm it was gpu memory
it lets me increase it to 2200 though, idk what that would exactly mean
One message removed from a suspended account.
do not overclock a gpu ,i had some issues with some overclocking and i didn't do much
oh i dont mean to overclock
One message removed from a suspended account.
if u push the memory clock to 2200mhz u'll overclock it's memory

i know i tried it too
ur welcome

i use msi to check cpu and gpu temp, dram usage and framerate. I want to know if there's anything else that would be cool to use as well that doesn't involve overclocking.

Gpu tens to heat a lot
One message removed from a suspended account.
Curve is good but it doesn't truly work sometime u need to cool the card
i always check the temps they rarely go above 65c
Curve is using the gpu usage to define when it should spin the fans or not and not the temperature
on idle it stays at 25-35
65 is good
They found a galaxy with no Dark Matter
Bro it's like a cotton ball
Fully see through
I mean yeah most galaxies are like 99% nothing
Most of its mass is dark matter
"Dark matter is yet to be observed"
Bro if we could harness that shit
I honestly don't think that even if no wars break out, no mass extinction happenes, even if we pool all of our cash into space exploration we wouldn't make it out of our local star group
It just ain't happening
I mean yes we've technically made an FTL system that works but the amount of energy required is like 10 million nuclear bombs
Plus it gives time itself the middle finger, so if we went somewhere that was 60 million light years away, 60 million years wouldn't pass for anybody
guys dont get windows 11 because thats an odd number
I mean windows 7 was a good os and it was an odd number
windows 98 se was also good no wait that's even
Windows 3.11 good os and made windows a staple in our computers and its an odd number
ultimiate overheating pc
https://thinkcomputers.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/r8a69ioaqti11.jpg yeah for sure but this is what happens in my room sometimes XD
XD
i actually wanna make this
that would be a fun case to build in but i wonder how it would do with the heat.
thats why you print it in ABS
now when you work at a pizza place but you want to get into someones wifi XD https://storage.googleapis.com/gamebyte/2018/06/16-pizza-box-gaming-setup.jpg
XD
it's free pizza with a virus lol
XD
now you know why your computer is purring like a cat XD https://www.crucial.com/content/dam/crucial/articles/for-pc-builders/why-is-my-computer-loud/cat-on-a-computer.jpg.transform/small-jpg/img.jpg
wow XD
i really like how this one looks
i really like how this one looks, well besides the rgb
i love the would case it would go nice with a good wooden desk setup
it might not smell the best tho from hot wood
true and i dont think would is good for heat
this looks awsome tho
if you could get the metal on the outside to be heat sinks and get it to be scilent
dam the hard work that must of gone into that
this is my computer case it's a good one https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/cases/mid-tower/masterbox-mb520-argb/
maybe its time for me to go learn how to use the router and this time not the networking one
i got some prebuilt because only way to get 3080 soo
so what are you going to try and do with the router?
i would love to switch cases from the bs
making a case
maybe il go open up cad
maybe il use 360 fusion to design
to be honest have not used cad software in a very long time like years ago.
XD
i found the orignal case post
Aerodyne - 2012
if a ps 5 was done like that it would be so cool to have.
Hello lads
yo
Hm GRUB
why not put some wooden vinal on a ps5
and metal vinal on the center
no it's not grub it's free pizza with a virus lol XD
i would not know how that would look but i'm sure someone can make it look so great
i wonder how hard it would be to make a case that uses metal and wood
but the metal for cooling
maybe hide a quiet fan inside for helping push air accross the fins
that might work but the fans would get load on heavy load though.
maybe would get some of thoes 20 dolar fans tho
well to be honest i think every time i run bf 5 on my system it shutdown like it loses power so i think it's over heating or something in windows is messing it up and i have already done a clean install of windows but i think im going to need to clean format windows and reinstall from cd or usb to fix it.
no that sounds like your powersupply is not powerfull enough for your pc
what wattage is it?
or the powersupply could be dying slowly and unable to keep up with sudden increase of current
let me check
ok so it's a corsshair vs550 psu
whats compenents do you have?
like gpu and cpu
the rest ussaly dont add much to power draw unless your running like a aray of hard drives XD
if you dont know what they are you can look in device manager
@prime jasper i have an z3090 aorus mobo and cpu is Intel i7 9700k 3.60GHZ GPU is MSI GTX 1060 gaming x 6GB RAM is 16GB of DDR 4 2666MHZ and ARCTIC FREEZER 12 CPU heat sink
i see im running it through a calculator XD
odd it should work with the psu
i mean it's enough to run a lot of games but when i run bf 5 or have my computer running for days and then play a game it will just shut off
how long have you had the psu
i have had this psu for 6 years.
its probaly time to get a new one
but the computer will shutdown when even sometimes i am not playing a game at all
alright one second let me go find the peice of software to watch temps
yeah that's what i was thinking i dont think it's an over heating issue as i have 3 fans at the front one at the back and one on the cpu but i could always add more.
HWMonitor is a hardware monitoring program that reads PC systems main health sensors : voltages, temperatures, fans speed.
The program handles the most common sensor chips, like ITE® IT87 series, most Winbond® ICs, and others. In addition, it can read modern CPUs on-die core thermal sensors, as well has hard drives temperature via S.M.A.R.T, and...
it reads the temp sensors on your pc so you can see what temps they run at
sure i mean my room does get a bit hot due to other computers running sometimes
id say running above 80c is bad but some people like living on he edge at 90c and the pc will shut off after 100c
well its a good way to test if it could be over heating
i run about 60c on both gpu and cpu
idle temps
well here the temps now
not to hot
how about gpu temps? their quite far down
XD thats not hot at all actually thats really really good
but thats mb temps whats the cpu temp?
thats good temps
what about the cpu? its under the cpu icon
yeah this really looks like a powersupply issue
from what i see on the internet it can be from 5 years to 10 years so your definitly in the range
and it shutting down out of nowhere even when doing nothing seems like a failing powersupply
yeah but mainly i can get it to happen as soon as i boot up bf 5 and then the computer shutdown down like it's a lose of pwoer from the PSU
yeah that would be due to BF5 stressing the psu so fast it cant compensate
that might be yet but bf 5 has worked before fine if i just leave the computer not running for so long in hours.
that too
but if its power supply age issue sounds about right it working before and now not working
i fuckin swear if this dam nat dosent stop flying right between my eyes when im trying to type
well this as been going on for like a year or so but when i play rd2 online it works fine for a few houes then out of nowhere it would shut off so i tought it would be an over heating issue.
i mean start up something that uses the cpu and gpu and watch the temps
have you cleaned the pc recently?
yep and i might have to do that but is it worth just getting a super high power supply and get more fans as i do want to get a gtx 3090 soon
XD id recomend a 3080 over 3090
the price to performance drops between 3080 and 3090
i got a 3080 its plenty for even 4k gaming
well any of the 30 cards would work for me but i would need to know what power supply would be a good option
this can help you pick out a psu for your setup
is it worth upgrading the CPU as well with the GPU or is the 9700k still good
most games use gpu mostly so it should still be decent
but a 3090 is kinda very overkill for a 9700k
well if i do go for a 3090 the cpu would be able to handle it?
It would but uhh make sure you get a psu over 1000w
ok so that would be for the same for a 360 / 370 / 380 as well?
its mostly spending that much on a 3090 and then using a 9700 is just odd XDD
i mean i could just pickup a pre built with a Unlocked 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-11700K NVIDIA Geforce RTX 3070 Ti 8GB with that would be better
i mean prebuilts are good especcaly if you dont plan on upgrading the computer as most of the time you can get a good warnety
i mean if i upgrade this current computer i'm using i'm might be getting another depnding what i'm going to do with it.
what do you plan on doing with it?
current computer gaming working game engine stuff and video games when i get time
ah so making games, yeah that can get quite intensive
i mean i can stick with my main computer so mainly i want to focus on getting that upgrade and not get a prebuilt if not needed
also not good to have a pc shutting down half way through XD
yeah well i do different things from playing around with game engines to learning networks web dev stuff all over the place to be honest so mainly i would say i would want to upgrade my computer so keep the same cpu upgrade the gpu to 380 and the PSU
well i know networks stuff is very very not intensive
Also i have played a bf 5 match on a GT 740 and it runs bad but still able to play lol
packet tracer uses like 2-5% of cpu XD
XDD
so mainly i would like to get a second upgraded computer but im just going to stick with upgrading my main pc for now because dont reailly need a super computer lol
true
also i'm still running a WD 1TB HDD as well
i simply got it as ik i will use it for a long time and if i get good powerfull compontets now i dont have to upgrade every year i can just keep using it for a long time to come
i got 2tb of nvme ssd storage, 1tb of sata ssd storage and, 2tb HDD
yeah that's the idea is upgrade now you are good for a few years i mean i have had this GPU 4 years and it runs some games well but bf 4 just dies with the 1060
he he thats why i got a 3080, i think it will be a while before i need to even think about upgrading
if i ever do
not bad i think one day i might get an SSD or nvme but i dont mind sticking with the old hard drive.
ngl 3tb is just for games
and i have it completetly filled XD
got a small gamestop already downloaded and ready to play when ever i feel like the game
so you think i should get a 380 as that will be enough also do i have to upgrade the PSU to 1000?
i mean i got a 750 but their are some features in an 1000wat that you wont find on lower wattage
your lucky lol i only play one or 2 games sometimes if not i just re download them lol
like if the pc is idle it might not have to spin up fan
i got 110 games downloaded
that makes sense so you can go for a PSU 1000 but you can just stick with a 750 PSU depending on the hardware
only issue is half the time i cant choose what game i should play XDD
yeah
lucky i think i got like 20 or less lol
just never go cheap on the PSU
dont go overly expensive but not cheap either
a cheap psu can easily cost you alot more for example if it shocks everything
so hows the temps with the 3080 does it run super hot?
yeah i have heard that about some PSU
i mean i got an oc one but i dont run it overclocked so it runs well
i mean yeah i don't overclock anything on my system i find it runs well on stock so the 9700k would go well with a 380?
it should be decent maybe a few frames less but i dont think its worth enough to upgrade if the highest power draw thing is gonna be games
ooo and btw movavi video editor is currentl 70% off
i might get that XD
i mean a few frames is not going to be an issue unlike now like on bf 4 i can't even play it on the 1060 wuth everything set to low in the user cfg or in the game settings but i think windows is fucked up somewhere so i need to do a fresh install from disk one day to see if that fixes it otherwises i just gave EA free money lol
are you able to go in vc?
dont think i have used that video editor before lol
sure.
il be in general 1
sure i will be there now just going to check my audio settings
You should be able to play bf4 on highest settings with 60+ FPS
Maybe it's an another bottleneck? (Aka CPU, ram)

In a new patent from AMD, researchers have highlighted techniques for performing machine learning operations using one or more dedicated ML accelerator chiplets. The resulting device is called an Accelerated Processing Device or APD which can be used for both gaming and data center GPUs via different implementations. The method involves configuring a part of the chiplet memory as a cache while the other as directly accessible memory.
For RDNA3 GPUs
Will i510300 and gtx 1650 run bf2042
!!specs
Currently there are no official PC specifications released by DICE for Battlefield 2042.
Any specs floating around the internet are just assumptions or rumors.
Probably they will
I got an RTX 2080 but im never able to turn on the NVIDIA DLSS and in games like battlefield 5 it would really help with it turned on. It allows me to turn it on other games like Enlisted but some games like Battlefield 5 it doesn't let me. Any ideas?
You have to run it in dx12 mode

yeah its awesome
Yo, it's great that China's cracking down on Crypto and getting all these mining farms to stop buying GPUs.
But that doesn't solve the fact that the ONE PORT where ALL Chinese imports come into the USA is closed because it's in California.
So, uh.
Great, supply is going up! Now open up the ports, you dipshits-
the chinese government is just assuming full control of crypto there thats why theyre cracking down on it
guys sorry for asking, do u think a i5 9600k (probably overclocked at 4.3 ghz or a little more), gtx 1060 and 16 gb will run bf2042?

k
yeah i was thinkin it too
what do u think about a 1660 super?
hell yeah
shortage
1660 super wouldnt be a huge upgrade
i know... but a long time ago i ordered it thinking it would be a good upgrade
actually if you have the 3gb variant of the 1060 it would be a big upgrade
6gb variant gang
aight
most new games if you wanna play at ultra you're gonna need an gpu with at least 8gb vram
but it would be a bad time to buy one now
1660 ti = rtx 2060 but rtx
can you mother board fit an rtx 30 series gpu?
i have this motherboard
Supports 9th and 8th Gen Intel Core™ processors (Socket 1151); Supports DDR4 2666 MHz; 2 PCIe 3.0 x16, 2 PCIe 3.0 x1, 1 M.2 Key E for WiFi; AMD Quad CrossFireX™; Graphics Output Options: HDMI, Display Port; 7.1 CH HD Audio (Realtek ALC1200 Audio Codec), Supports DTS Connect; 6 SATA3, 1 Ultra M.2 (PCIe Gen3 x4), 1 Ultra M.2 (PCIe Gen3 x4 & SATA3)...
and looking online cause no one talks about this one anymore i was only able to upgrade to an rtx 2070 super no more
now
no
later this year
supposed to be some time around christmas
not all motherboards have it though... which is really crappy
mine does, but my laptop and my other rig doesnt
F
its basically just "high" end motherboards that have the option, and if you dont have it then on your bike i guess
i think you can buy add in little gizmos to give you that option, but like id guess 95% of windows user base wouldnt even know how to take their side panel off their computer, let alone know what TPM is and what to buy let alone how to install it
and also people who do have boards that support the option, id guess 50% of those people wouldnt even know how to get into bios, never mind where tpm would be
Yeah i knew it was on bios but i watch a tutorial :)
its different for every board
i found it pretty ez in mine, just took some patients and rooting through stoopid proprietary naming schemes
Tf
I just enter in bios then advance mode than search for something named like PCH-FW and then i activated that intel PPT
this is the list of msi boards that have it, its different for every manufacturer but msi seems to have the biggest selection
thats ASUS's list,
my spare rig has an asus h110 board, so yes i was right its not supported
apparently it gives better performance to games

not that much though
look up windows 10, 11 benchmarks
2-3 fps difference but windows 10 performs better in most games
sticking with 10 anyway tbh
Margin of error
hello
can someone help me on dm
as i dont have img perms
ill just post my build then
i didnt understand the "note" for the mobo
and why are most stuff "unavailable"
anyway

System looks good. The things with no price are most likely out of stock. Video cards in general have been tough to find.
It's a decent build component wise, some suggestions I'd make based off my personal experience would be getting a different case maybe something cheaper and also something that is M-ATX so it looks better in the case as having that current setup will make it look really off, the extra money save from the case you can spend and get a 2TB HDD instead
Also if you have the budget available aim for a 144hz monitor its not necessary but will feel a lot better
Does anyone have experience with nVidia Reflex and Latency Analyzer?
If so, has it helped? Has it helped a lot, if at all?
im a competitive player i feels like better but not zero latency as nvidia makes it seem
cough marketing cough
Gotcha, thanks!
Style seems fine IMO but for some reason on a lot of menus they’ve excluded options… not sure why.
P sure they’ll correct it.
Just realised that was posted hours ago lmao cheers discord mobile
i see
I know the case is kinda overpriced lol how about this instead
Yeah that a nice case for sure, superb airflow and nice to build in for the most part, still an ATX so it will look a bit empty with the M-ATX board you've chosen but you can always get a new board in future
That 250gb SSD you have is that just to boot from and install a few applications on?
i think i will choose another board
i think
yes
some games are just extremely slow
You could get another SSD at a cheaper price too that will compromise a tiny bit on speed but if its just for application and boot you won't notice it at all really
I use a WD SN550 to boot from and it takes like 15 seconds
A good budget atx board would be Asus TUF GAMING B450-PLUS II
also has 2 Nvme slots so room for expansion
i see
https://tr.pcpartpicker.com/list/Bd3Yj2 so at last the build is like this
is the psu good?
someone said i should change it
That looks nice, the incompatibles says about bios update but the motherboards ship with 3000 series support if you are buying it new and not pre owned
PSU is fine also why did the person suggest changing it 650W is for sure enough
idk he said his broke
cook a egg
its the b450 old gen thingy
i think the card i use has 3rd gen support though
I'd say go for a 550w or 600w but higher quality unit
will a 550w be enough tho
Plenty
The estimated wattage is 344. So 550 is more than enough
Gives you 200w headroom which Is what is recommended for upgrades
Just, get a lower wattage but higher quality psu
Yeah, its incredibly unlikely for a modern psu to go boom, and if it does its more than likely a bad product or build defect that could have happened to ANY psu high quality or not
But psus do die, and the cheaper they are the faster they die
Agreed. In most cases, if they fail, they just fizzle out.
what about asus tuf gaming 550B 550W
What happened to me. I left a machine on over night, woke up and it was off. And wasn't turning on. After a jumper and a multimeter the cheapo aerocool 450w psu kicked the can, although didn't take anything with it
oh i think thats its only in my country
it says "no international sales"
my father barely agrees to buy a pc anyway, i dont think i can go higher
With PSU's if I'm aiming for a budget I will go for a 80+ bronze from a v reputable company like BeQuiet or EVGA
hah
I've build many systems never had someone come to me with any issues with their EVGA power supply
as i said i dont think i can spend more than the build i did
so if its group regulated then well, it is what it is
i originally meant to buy it from a custom pc site
Yanno group regulated powersupplies are only bad in extreme circumstances right ?
One example would be using 2 psus on one machine and using one entire psu just for gpus
That could cause voltages to fluctuate, but under normal usage they are perfectly fine
I'm running a 2070 and a 2600 on a cheap af vs550 which I believe is group regulated and don't have any issues
Have been running it for years
I run my gpu cpu and ram overclocked 24/7
I believe him
Its not
Why would he lie about something like that
+200mhz core +500mhz mem on gpu, 4ghz at 1.35v on cpu, xmp enabled and +133mhz on ram
chill about a bit homie
Hey I don't need a new unit. And I even recommended to that guy get a lower wattage higher quality unit. Chill out man
I understand that quality is better. But I don't have the money to get something better so I make do with what I've got
nah he needs a Corsair AXI 1500W 
Settle down or get out of this channel. We don't talk to people like that here.
sorry sir
@prime jasper It wasn't a topic for debate. You've been given direction by staff. Choose your next words wisely.
bro what is this guy tf?
mf woke up from the left side of bed
@atomic jackal If you are worried about your PSU if you want I can DM you a list of PSU's formed but LTT community so its well trusted
it will tell you what PSUs are good for each tier of system
sure
i just need to reduce costs as much as possible since my dad is not too tech savvy and hes angry that he doesnt get a montior bundled with the case(he barely knows how to use a pc and only used laptops)
Imagine thinking one could come into this server and act a fool without repercussions...
Then imagine being wiped off the face of the channel.
If that individual returns to harrass, ping ModMail and we'll handle them.
I thought he was just joking at first
i was kind of confused since I don't want to really overclock or do anything like that
They were unnecessarily hostile, their words meaningless... and I've already forgotten their name.
Yeah if you are new to building PC's and etc I would not recommend any OC'ing until you feel comfortable even then I don't do it and I know a fair bit
Lets keep it that way.
I feel like its not worth the hand off for the small 3-6% increase in performance
bro im having anxiety just thinking about the fact that the company sends the gpu in its package to avoid damage so i have to install it myself
also there is another major problem
i dont have an iso usb
ready
my last pc broke a few months ago
Are you paying a company to build it for you?
so i dont really have a place to make a windows usb
kind of yes
you could always ask them to install windows ready for you
Long as you have a 8gb usb stick you can get a windows 10 installation media online for free then you can get a key for cheap
it is in the uk at least. i cant say in turkey
you could ask a friend for one possibly
yeah
or just dont activate it :P
hmm i can ask a friend to go to their house and use their pc
yeah actually
i have wallpaper engine
who cares
you dont need to buy windows if you dont want, youll just have to live with the watermark. i did for like a year
ill just use kms pico to get rid of the watermark
i upgraded my gpu a while ago and it just randomly activated when i installed it, but im not complaining
turn pc off with windows not activated, install new gpu, turn pc back on, windows is now activated
nice
thats a W
i think it had something to do with my windows licence being linked to an account and the account wasnt setup properly or something idk
what do you mean by a fraudulent key? like one from a key site for cheap?
becuase i do actually have a windows 10 licence, but i assumed it expired because i changed too many parts
you know there is like key generators right
what if i actually get a right one and use it
mostly it's tied to the motherboard
Key generators I'm 99% sure are not real
but you can buy them online for like a few $'s
yeah it appeared after i changed my motherboard which is why i assumed i lost my licence and just lived with the watermark
but maybe it was linked to my microsoft account or somthing idk
Yeah its tied to mobo they let you change your mobo once before needing a new key
dunno how to buy it tho, I don't have a cc myself so it depends on my dad, which he probably wont buy. maybe ill live with the watermark for a while and buy it myself
That usually don't work with those cheap keys you buy off the internet. If you use those and change motherboard it equals you needing a new key.
what are the possibilities of a retail key seller being a scammer though
went from B450MDS3H, B450F-Gaming and now a B550 F-Gaming and I had to get a new key for my B550
well my first pc was a prebuilt and my key is from that
OEM key, bound to hardware 🙂
you can go to a computer store and physically buy a key if that makes you feel better
idk then, but from that prebuilt ive changed ram 3 times, 2 motherboards a different cpu, 2 new drives and a different gpu and it still is activated
so
if retail keys can be used multiple times
can i use for example, my friend's key?
Retail key can only be used once
why is it so cheap then
on key sites?
Savetitanfall
yes
i actually know the answer to this one :)
its because they get them in bulk from companys that have like either closed down or have spare and sell them off
there is probably other ways they get them but I assume thats from illegitimate ways
a lot of key sites buy their keys from places in the world where the price is much lower. as microsoft sell it there at the lower price as the know if they dont know one will be able to afford it and wont buy it, so key sites buy them from places in the world where its cheap then sell it here at just a little more to make profit
that too ^ its like in turkey twitch subs are really cheap if I convert it from my country's currency
basically
it converted to local currency yes
although nigera isnt really that poor, bad example 
well it is, but there are poorer places
its the wealthiest country in africa iirc
so a twitch sub would be like 0.75 cents
nope
its south africa
then there is an island nation
yeah i already know gdp per captia would be higher
the british arent the most creative though are they
eh?
"its the south of the continent so lets call it as such"
oh
"south africa it is"
guys i could really use some help, my bf5 keeps crashing to desktop at the end of each game, does anyone have a solution plz 😦

do any other games crash instally?
have you checked themals latly?
how old is the pc could the powersupply be going out?
Should i get a PS5 controller just for PC use?
Do the adaptive trigger things work on PC too?
i dont think they would
Ah, that's a shame
Only some games
you want to use it for flying?
hey which wins ps5 or xbox series x
that's false
All the windows 10 keys that you see on ebay for like £5 are all Windows 7 keys. That's why they're so cheap, windows 7 keys work on win10
that or those buisness license keys
do you guys have a cheap monitor that you can recommend?
im thinking of buying a cheap monitor temporarily but then upgrade to something better
since my dad isnt really keen on spending much on monitors
my focus is to get the pc first
something around 60-80 dollars will do
why don't you get a good monitor first...
unless you want a dual monitor setup
otherwise, go for a good monitor to save you money
I don't know any in particular because it depends on the country and the currency you are using
lira and turkey
so something around 800 or below liras
below would be preferable
if you really want a cheap display and use it for dual monitor setup, go for a 21" 1080p IPS display. usually be around 100AUD with tax
can you link to one?
Which is like these if it is on sale in Australia (from Local Post Office). Cannot link one because it isn't on sale currently
its turkish lira, its got a low value
180 aud
instead of a cheap one plus a good monitor. That will cost you two monitors in total
yeah i know that. this is why i suggested to get 1 GOOD monitor.
I suggest you to get an IPS display. If it is too expensive, VA will be an alternative option
but this one is a TN panel. it is fast but it doesn't looks as good other panels (eg: IPS or VA)
you mean aesthetically?
the colour and colour accuracy
IPS looks prettier but is slower grey-to-grey i think
this is why i would suggest people to think twice if they wanted to get a TN panel
also i wouldnt go for 1080p 144hz on a 3060
If you got a chance, go to the stores that sell monitors
id either go 1080p 240hz or 1440p 144hz
1440p 144hz VA can be cheap
monitors are a bottleneck that no one talks about
but if you want to get a good monitor, you have to pay a little bit more
in your situation id either make room for a nicer monitor OR going fucking as cheap as possible on the monitor and put all the money into the pc, then get a nice monitor later
still... paying the price of two monitors won't be as good as getting a GOOD monitor that fits what the consumer wants
my plan was the second
it would be appealing to both my dad and me
i dont think so
well then go on ebay and find the cheapest monitor you can
a "good" monitor that has the stuff you want doesnt come without at least a 3,5k or 4k
1080p 60hz 21" monitors should be basically free
how much is the samsung odyssey g5 there ? @atomic jackal
what is your budget range
I have a friend that hesitates between the razer basilisk v2 and the razer viper utimate
which one is better?
1000-2000 lira
do you need it urgently? otherwise you shall wait for a big sale
that will get your a chance of getting a good display with a reasonable price
I will take a look when i got more time later on
VA is good with a reasonable price
i wont give 2000+ more for "wow vibrant colors"
but it has terrible ghosting effect (with cheaper panels)
VA panels are the middle ground, with cheaper price than IPS, colourful (not as good as IPS) and darker Black colour on screen
in that case, you shall be primarily look at/getting displays with VA panels. (forget about IPS) but please don't get TN panels
this is because people are getting displays with VA/IPS display these days. It will looks way better compared to TN (and it doesn't cost much extra)
VA panel doesn’t usually cost too much compared to TN panels (at least in my country)
Sometimes cheaper than TN because the lack of supply (TN) here
opposite here
ive not seen any va panels
ips are overpriced
so that only leaves tn

I will look at it later when I got time
sure
@atomic jackal Have you been thinking of getting this?

Asus Tuf Gaming VG24VQ 23.6" 144Hz 1ms (HDMI+Display) en iyi fiyatla Hepsiburada'dan satın alın! Şimdi indirimli fiyatla sipariş verin, ayağınıza gelsin!
that looks pretty good yeah
however the sale ends in a day and i dont think my father will buy until the case arrives
i cant find anything better. more importantly, it has 350nits display
still, ill try
right. no worries
1440p monitors are cheap what
i got one 3 years ago for £300
1440p, 144hz, IPS 5ms
but yeah different prices in different countries
not sure how much it would be for you
which yeah converted into Turkish Lira looks shit expensive
Is it normal that I cant use DLSS with my 2080 in Battlefield V by using 1080 resolution?
are you on dx12
^
yes
1440p monitors are cheap in your country
Need to enable dx12 and hdr to enable dlss in bfv no?
It was the case for me
Never said I was born in UK either 
you probably live there though, you use pounds
tbf buying one here + shipping it to turkey would probably come out cheaper
nope, we have %48 import tax
it seems like you have to enable dxr too
HDR = High Dynamic Resolution ?
oh
its dxr not hdr you have to enable
it's High Dynamic range
You know you got scammed when you get 70fps on bfv 1440p with a 3060
What is your CPU?
Maybe CPU bottleneck?
What settings and what cpu
Anyone know a fix as to why my pc fans have to work so hard playing battlefield? they didnt used to do this
rtx 2060 i5 9600k
low settings
i assume you dont know what temperature your cpu is at?
but fans ramping up isnt generally anything to worry about. they will do that
i havent checked in like 2 weeks, but when I was playing it was like 75ish
yeah thats fine, dw about it

the 3060 is way better than the 1660 though
yeah. if you dont have 500 bucks for a gpu then just get on your bike
the 3060 2070 performance for like half the price
so no, its not a waste
I mean my 1070ti is better than a 1660 but
Rather get an upgrade to a 3060
Even if I suffer fps

thats steep for a 3060, but it should still get way more than 70 fps on ultra even
well i have a 2070 and the 3060 and 2070 are basically identical in performance so i know pretty well what its capable of
maybe check your ram just incase
and id expect around 90 fps on ultra at 1440p
Ram has XMP turned on
Updated BIOS then had to re-enable it
It’s running at 3000mhz
and is all your ram detected?

your gpu will render all the pixels you set it to render, but it will only output the amount of pixels your monitor has, the rest are lost to the shadow realm
so the game will look the EXACT same, except with lower fps

sorry for random ping, but do you remember this conversation about the static noise i was hearing from my new headphones?
well i just realised its gone, after i put my pc back into a metal case instead of being in my wooden desk pc
so you was right, it must have been a grounding issue, and that is slightly terrifying
Gtx 1660 will be fine on bf 2042?
Most likely yes
!!specs
Currently there are no official PC specifications released by DICE for Battlefield 2042.
Any specs floating around the internet are just assumptions or rumors.
But that^
Thats why im here
i didnt realise proper grounding could have such a massive effect
i thought the psu being grounded would be enough. but i guess a metal case is important for quality audio too
that might explain actually why basically all cases even the cheapest unbranded things are made out of metal instead of much cheaper and easier to form plastic
Now that I think about it I changed the power setup too. Before I was using one cheap powerstrip feeding a nice powerbar which my entire setup was plugged into
Now its just a nice powerstrip
Which may also be the culprit?
Could be
What’s better 5900x or i9-11900k?
5900X more worth the value
11700K better choice than 11900K
11700K and 11900K are the same CPU, same core counts and cache amount, only difference is a marginally increase in clockspeed
So,
If we gave Dice an unlimited amount of money (which they will make after 2042 releases), how long until there is a game that can controll a Battlefield Soldier with a motion capture suit?.
Imagine the movie Shooter but without the tragic prisoner slave murder pvp 🙂
5900x
You sure? I saw better results for gaming for the i9
bruh the 5900x has double the cores and threads and costs less in terms of power, heat and price
Yea but at the end for gaming… I saw on YouTube
it really depends on the games and hardware, like everything, but i still recommend the 5900x
@wooden reef no
Best places to build a computer that ships fast?
Don’t know. Why don’t you build it yourself if you really want it urgently
Depends on where you live
My new build which just got done built today has an I9 10900x and 64gb of gskillz 3200mhz spread along 8 8gb sticks.
Nice
Thoughts about GPD Win Max and One GX1?
A cool concept not worth its price
Too expensive for what it is
that wont cause any issues
i really dont recommend updating your vbios. that should be your LAST ditch resort if your gpu completely isnt working
one slip up with that and thats it, you have one very expensive paper weight
@weary cypress run some kind of synthetic benchmark, something like valley benchmark, superposition, 3d mark anything really and send what score or fps you get, to see if your gpu is really underperforming
thats what my pc scores
but i have a much slower cpu
so you are underperforming, run it again and see what the individual cpu and gpu scores are
Yeah my overall score was somewhat near 8529
I'll have to do it when I'm home 
if it requires me to OC my cpu then
i'll just crank it up to 5ghz
well that was with my cpu overclocked to the redline
but even with my cpu overclocked it should be destroyed by the 8700k
well thats if its the cpu bringing the score down, the gpu score might be low
Well my CPU is 4~ years old
so is mine
like i said, it might be the gpu thats underperforming, youll have to wait and see when you run it again and get the individual scores
I've not got the benchmark but i know the score i got
did it 3 days ago
GPU Score - 8823
CPU Score - 7352
overall is like 8565
if that looks right
What’s the problem?
Got some issues with my 3060
