That / is pulling some weight.
LAN Ethernet WiFi wireless
But how do I fix this broooo my pc can’t even boot into mf windows
Thanks Mansen, I forgot that it's New Years today and your name reminded me of it
I fuckin hate New Years, the cat is scared shitless of the fireworks
reinstall would be best if its a drive from an old system
Can bro doesn’t lemme
It is
I am honestly not sure how to convert a microsoft account into a local one, without being able to log in.
Or how to create another administrator account with safe mode or something.
And ASU’s support is down 💀
only thing i can think of is force restart/shut down and try to get bios up
In bios still bro
yeah
wow
Never said that was
Relax
Bro I’ve been tryna get my pc to work for 5 hours
You are threading a fine line with using that word as an insult
fr
You -will- keep it civil here, or you can find somewhere else to get tech support. 😉
I’m tryna force my pc into recovery mode
ty
Create a thread or something and discuss this stuff there
There bios but doesn’t lemme do anything
Getting into the BIOS won't help a shred here. You need to get into the recovery console, which in modern Windows is all but nigh impossible without a USB stick with the windows installer on it.
Like I’m tryna lemme switch my Ethernet from. 2,5 gb to 1gb since my dads 570x iiiv hero I think had a 10gb Ethernet he limited to 1gb and Ethernet worked since it was the native connection
i was thinking of my work coz we do window installs through boot menu (f12) but dw about that
He’s a overclocker
Overclockers UK?
Which b650 is it you have?
Nah
Rog strix b650 ef a lot have the same issue
But the fact it’s not letting me reinstall windows broooo
Sure it will - If you grab a USB stick with a windows installer on it.
K so I got a laptop will I have to reset it or smh
Just wipe the SSD using the included utility in BIOS and fetch a new windows iso
You can install Windows on top of itself. You'll lose some some stuff stored in the appdata folder - but you could theoretically bring about 95% of it back afterwards as needed.
I so I have a 64 gb stick is that anoth with a laptop
Sure. +8GB is all you need.
you might need to reformat that 64gb stick
K
but that shouldn't be an issue
Indeed. Grab anything you need off of it first. The Windows installer tool will format it.
Yeah that board has the shit Intel i255 Ethernet chip that doesn’t recognize Ethernet cables sometimes if you haven’t manually changed its speed rip
K so laptop check lemme get the usb
i225 is pretty okay with up to date drivers
No it’s not

Oh man. I remember seeing this back in 2020 at a LAN. Cool dudes. Essentially a compact LAN PC with monitor installed into the frame - now with a neat suitcase I guess.

I've been using it fine with a gigabit, though iirc the problems start with 2.5gbps onwards so, it works fine for me
It doesn’t change that the chipset even with latest drivers is total trash just because you don’t have any issues lol
From what I've read though it highly depends on which i225 you even have
There’s like not a single other chipset that has so many known issues
i225 rev 3 is normal, from what I'm reading
No even v3 has problems
i226 had problems, supposedly fixed with new revisions
K I got the drive
Again I remember reading it's only with 2.5gbps or something that it starts to fuck with
So can some one gimme the link for the windows installer and run my through making a installer drive so I can reset windows in the pc
Type windows on Google, first link ?
Done now what do I do
Follow what is written on the website
I had the urge to type this but I felt like keeping the obvious part quiet
It’s making me install some assistent stuff
floppies were quite popular 7 years ago
I got a b650 ef a kraken 240 mm a rtx 2080 ti i will upgrade ddr5 6000mhz ram a 7800x3d and a 970 evo
They were not
What pc you got
so fiesty you people
Do I install windows arm64?
How did you even install your windows?
a learning experience
This
You know if you aren’t helping you don’t need to comment on things
My dad did it he already had it installed he’s beeen building pcs since 13 so 30 years
This kills the crab
Nah
Yum
Yes, don't download the ISO itself like you were doing, just get the media creation tool
Tbf the creation tool is prolly one of the few good things remaining about Microsoft
At least I find it rather.. intuitive
The setup I’m using rn
NZXT, eh
Pink kb is my sisters don’t worry 💀
the media creation tool is nice but their stupid website really hasn't let me download just the iso even once, it always tells me I can't at the last step 😭
Good parts bad money making methods
There's better parts but, okay
What are you on about. It is 3 clicks and you have an ISO...
Media tool is pretty solid tbf, I don't see why you'd not use it
mayhaps it's some regional thing, the iso bit
Unless you are downloading some pre-cracked Windows copy lol
I myself never had issues with it
Bob's your uncle.
Marta's your grandma
I've always gotten this trying to download an iso
Maybe disable your VPN and weird adblockers 😄
I'm not using any
Uhuh...
I knew all linux users had something going on
on my phone ☠️
I didn’t do that 💀😂
Wasn't related to your situation.
I mean, my experience with Linux was basically, nobody with normal lifestyle would ever use this, they have to have some kind of deviation from the norm to tolerate the BS that Linux is
can use both
Installll
Yeah that's just downloading Windows lol
Imagine USB is dead and the media tool doesn't even detect it
Bro it’s installing on the usb 💀
I already set it up to
The installing is on the usb
That's literally what you are supposed to do?
Then why is the frog being dumb about it and saying everything I’m doing is wrong
Nobody is saying what you are doing right now is wrong
Oh lord
Make a bootable USB, go to your borked PC, plug the USB in, go to BIOS, make the USB the first thing in the boot cycle, it'll boot up Windows install screen, and you reinstall Windows
They were literally just pointing out that you were in fact not "installlling" - yet. 😄
That’s what I’m doing
I’m making it
Less barking, more working

An exploded AMD Ryzen 9800X3D CPU on reddit popped-up last month and caused a stir. The motherboard & CPU combination incinerated, with a total blowout causing not only melted socket plastics, but bubbling-up solder through the socket, pins that turned blue from heat, and scorche...
Mansen, t'was already posted, n'wah
same shit last gen no?
ohhh
it's the one where the fella shaved chips off of the substrate
cause they put the cpu at an angle?
Indeed, I kinda feel bad that GN had to pay for someone's fuck up 
They made more than that back from this video
I guarantee that they made it all back in the views for the video.
I get their mentality but, this one was very obviously a fuck up from the consumer, though I guess it's a good way to spread knowledge about potential dangers
yea
Couldn't really lose on this. Either way it's a good video.
I doubt this would have happened with the old BGA array
I honestly really liked the pins on CPU
bent bins everywhere
installing cpu sideways blows it up but good to have it confirmed
The new way is kinda.. weird? Feels like there's more ways for accidents to happen like in this case
people could install the cpu with the pins facing outward
people are fucking dumb
Intel's been doing it for decades. BGA is a fucking terrible thing.
I was going to say, Intel has been using LGA for ages
It's new for AMD and I prefer the old way
Bga only works for smaller amounts of pins and lga has almost only upsides
PGA is more comfy but yea you install it once in years
fuck it not up that one time and its good
I do have my first LGA install before me tho soon 👀
I guess it's not the worst thing when the day comes that all CPUs and GPUs are presoldered on a motherboard and sold to you as a single product 
Already is in some cases, but the whole DIY thing will prolly go away one day
the more competition there is in the market the more it makes sense
rn you could just solder a 9800x3d to every new mobo and be done with it
- some budget crap
do i really need a cpu
no just do the calculations yourself
truee
i cant draw so i need a graphics card
but some simple math
easy
uhhh
19? You stupid.
bro thinks its 19 😭😭😭😭
21
What do I do know
eat it
Click finish, insert the USB stick, reboot into BIOS, set the boot device to the USB stick, reboot.
Gimme a sec to open bios

If I see a orange light ima have a stroke
It deserves that for being a pos
thats huge
So the bottom one right
yes indeed
I’ve never reinstalled fresh windows before new proces
lol I’ve been building pcs for 7 aswell but I’m just not as good with software only good with parts and building
The situation is clear by now, no need to bring it up anymore lel
I’ve done this setup like 19 times is I should be ok
Good
You could take precaution and use the Secure Erase utility in bios to clean them beforehand
And it'll be as good as a brand new PC
You can - literally - select the existing install and do it on top of it.
No formatting.
that was a thing back in like vista already
Yeah but it's not very clean
If you are doing a fresh install, using an utility like that is preferable
Why do a fresh install though.
They have a working system - with data. They just can't access it because Microsoft and their infinite wisdom 😄
Installing Windows on top of old installs could lead to problems lel
Meh.
If the data is not of high value, just do a fresh install
Apps and stuff can always be redownloaded
Can't really fuck anything up, since it segregates the old install.
My dad normally does this part what do I do here
Next.
Not necessarily
How many drives do they have
Which is the fastest, prefered boot drive
It's a 1TB NVME. we saw this in the BIOS earlier.
1 so I can take advantage of pcie gen 5
dw his dad can overclock the ssd
Oh ffs laddo.
Just let em wipe
Select everything that says Disk 0 and delete it.
Then select Disk 0 unallocated and hit next.
#💬│general, we don't really talk about keyboards in this channel 
how can i press pos 1 on my wooting 60he or is it even possible?
if it isnt already on the fn layer you would have to map it. checkout the quickstart guide
only for mc? any x3d chip will perform better in that case
Im much more worried about terrain generation.
Mc won't use all 32 threads, on top the terrain generation and rendering more chunks at once is very cache sensitive
Quite a few benchmarks on that as well, MC is very cache sensitive so one of the better examples of vcache adding a lot of performance
Esp with sodium/nvidium on top
Very good to know, thanks. Prop gonna stick to AM4 until AM6 exist
Nw and yeah 100% worth it 5700x3d is great and the difference isn't all too large compared to the 7800x3d/9800x3d in like 90% of games
You're more likely to be gpu bound on anything under a 4080 before needing the additional performance of the newer x3d's
Thinking of doing MC Vr. 4070tiS should be more than enough
oh for sure. I'm certain you can push the high hundreds even in vr with that
as a server or for local play?
Local play
https://x.com/GPUsAreMagic/status/1855293034377752873/photo/1 zen5 is a monster when it comes to MC
especially with mods
damn thats pretty nutty
well yeah its just one example
other mods or scenarios do different ones but in general zen5 just eats through java lol
Zen 5 the meth god
Minecraft gamers eating well on a 9800X3D
Fiber should have been connected to my home in December according to the brochure.. Website now says april
It's always to optimistic
yeah just wait a week to see what gets announced
Should i buy the wooting 60he with the better looks or the wooting 80he with the little better Performance?
Your call. Do you like a more compact keyboard or a less compact one?
Oh yeah, same thing with Factorio
Factorio does run quite excellent on my 7800X3D 
yesnt factorio is very misleading
for one there x3d does well not zen5 in general, but also most factorio benches are very off from the actual game where lots happens
so lategame or such you dont actually see that big of a difference when more stuff happens
the fab must grow
Indeed. With a new speed of factory belt, everything has to expand exponentially to cope.
yeah and it will quite run well but its not really that big of an advantage or just the same as other cpus
Noted. TIL

does the 60he+ come with v2 switches or v1
V1.5
If anyone has used the two, how do WALLHACK cloth pads compare to the Artisan zero mousepad? In the market for a new one and cannot decide
@ashen spindle remind me is Nvidia's CES presentation.. January 5th?
ask google
I am
So, Jan 5th?
Well, the other Google said Jan 6th, good to know
blud ur liteatly on wooting tema just tell me if u want a sale
It's not the 80HE switches
what is 1.5 they dont sell that
Correct.
i thought hew was just joshing with me
They're all good switches
What app should I use to remove windows apps and prosseses easily Revo unstaller did nothing
dont use any tools
just uninstall them/disable them in registry or whatever
and dont remove shit just to remove things because thats how you break an install
Nah I got rid of windows bloat where since I just reinstalled it
My dad some how got my pc from 166 prosseses to 70 so I needa find out how to
most of windows "bloat" doesnt actually do anything
who cares if the number is smaller when it does the same stuff
its not going to give you more fps
Ye but I don’t want those apps anyways
heh, awesome, I'm not the best with terminal etc, but thanks to your Linux guide I also managed to get the new mouse I have working with it's web utility software too, cheers to whoever wrote the instructions, legend!
Don't. Use. Honey.

If you live in EU you can uninstall virtually everything
Edge, some shit I will never use like HEVC codec, all I've uninstalled
Just go to control panel (or whatever it's called nowadays) and go to apps, delete everything
And no you don't break anything, not in my experience, and I've debloated it a lot
There are github scripts to do it for you, if you are lazy
Windows actually does hate if you uninstall Edge
Their ads don't open up anymore, which is a win in my book
I hate Edge, uninstalled it and honestly I was happier than with it
There's stuff like this available https://github.com/LeDragoX/Win-Debloat-Tools
I use Edge on my gaming PC because it's just to alt tab and check stuff for games 
But you obviously are responsible for any damage that these tools could inflict
uBlock Origin still works so all is good, for now
I wouldnt use any windows debloat tools
I've just downloaded debloated Windows once, it was.. not a good experience
especially if your main goal is better gaming performance
The debloat was so extreme Windows didn't even know what time it was, and it broke apps like VS Studio
Literally couldn't compile anything
visual studio studio
install windows, if you notice something being active thats bothering you or using resources, remove/disable it then and dont debloat it before for shits ang giggles
you're more likely to break games and even your entire OS install than you are to get any more performance whatsoever
If you just do your own debloat, it'll be fine
Delete anything in the programs and apps list you don't like
Adwares, shit you don't need like Phone, TV and movies, Xbox, whatever other shit Windows peddles
nah I love bloating my windows install
I've deleted like 90% of preinstaled apps from a fresh install and it was a very nippy and stable build
Quite happy, and no Windows trash
every new install I download GG engine, synapse, icue, armoury crate, chrome
I want the worst performance possible
you forgot norton
Forgot cam
Camera app is also an uninstall 
nah I use mcafee
why not both
true
Remember ccleaner
what now?
cleaning utility that got infected at some point 
oh
And that is literally useless these days
I guess... that was a reference that was too old...
yeah stuff like fragmentation etc. doesnt need external tools anymore
Fuck i don't want to be old
Pretty sure you don't even need to defragment an SSD at all
Due to how they are made
That's an HDD thing, which Windows can do itself
yes you dont need to defrag them
you need to TRIM them tho but most do that themselves and windows does too i think
I never really understood what CCleaner did anyways
Just cleansed some cached files?
It was supposedly to make your PC work faster but I sincerely doubt it actually "cleaned up" background processes to actually unhog the CPU
Oh lord this is the project on which a guy worked for years, got AMD funding, and then got axed when they got rights to the project or something
Seems like the person remade the whole thing and it's a brand new release to mark 2025, awesome
What a ZLUD(A)
no when nvidia changed legal terms AMD had to cut funding
making cuda code run on all gpus not just nvidia
server stuff basically
or workstation really
clean temp, win update cache, windows staging, registry entries etc
Didn't Nvidia get forced by some legislators or something to do that
ofc its all bs and windows can clean most the stuff itself with the disk cleanup util
nvidia getting forced to prevent people making open ecosystems out of it? lol no
Hey can anyone tell me what the real differences are between motherboard generations
Like I don’t see any difference between the 670s and those 870s
not much difference, mostly difference in IO so usb ports and such
When is it recommended to upgrade motherboards then is there like a generation time frame
never, you just upgrade cpus and use a fitting board
unless you suddenly need like 10 more nvme drives on your board
Honey's being sued xD
By that youtube lawyer guy legaleagle
And wendover productions
Class action lawsuit machine
Didn't think someone would sue paypal over this
would be funny if that youtube guy fails, would lose a lot of credibility
not really, legal win is good for consumer and if he fails hes not losing any bit of credibility
if you judge lawyers by their win record in court you will quickly find yourself a bad lawyer lol
tech
It kinda looks like a win to be honest, Honey did stripe influencers from affiliate income, and PayPal must've know about this, no way they'd pay $4B for a company which makes just a simple browser extension
he does lose credibility if you lose a lawsuit if you provide lawyer services
why would you hire a lawyer that loses every court case

that would go into what counts as a loss, does paypal lose more despite winning the lawsuit etc.
I didnt say hire one that loses everything
you know theres like steps between winning everything and losing everything
Legal loss is not always loss if you negotiate a better deal
Or manage to financially kill the opponent
also why would you want to see someone whos doing a all around good job to lose credibility?
because they are a youtuber, and most youtubers are bad people irl
okay so you wish bad things upon someone doing good things because they could potentially be a bad person
genius
yeah and afaik there isnt really anything that points towards him being bad
its pattern recognition
calling all youtubers bad people isn't pattern recognition that's called being prejudiced
you said all, not me
same thing if you just say most
peculiar

does anyone here have both wootings?
What did I just read lol
Ask in modding or gen chat, a lot of folks here have both
i have experience in the field 
holier-than-thou moment
old tech means its likely real lol
We already knew Nintendo was on Samsung's 8nm though
.. all Ampere cards were on that node, and T249 is an Ampere chip
Sure, you can prolly manufacture an Ampere card in 4nm, but older leaks already said it's 8nm Samsung
And that's fine, imo, it'll still be far faster than Switch 1
It'll be 550 and slower than the steam deck by a considerable margin
Price is the same as 1 by most accounts
It should do 1080p gaming just fine
Nintendo titles are typically hyperoptimized, so graphically they will be a lot prettier with 2
I don't suspect Nintendo will utilize DLSS2 much though, it's available for anyone who makes games for it to use, though
Battery life will be bad, with the eventual OLED or Switch 2 Max fixing that
Ah yes, OLED will make battery longer
T239 shouldn't have battery problems, it'll likely be the same TDP as X1
And OLED doesn't somehow magically make battery life longer
If anything prolly worse due to peak brightness
It's always funny to see ppl speculate on some very minor leaked detail, with little knowledge about the subject
We know virtually everything about Switch 2 at this point
Wouldn't be Vex otherwise. 🍿
Funny you are thinking they weren't talking about you, too
My dad words for Nintendo and he told me so, yours is pure conjecture Vex.
nintendo has always been allergic to performance because they are so focused on creating experiences
People are forgetting the.. 22/23? Shipping manifest leaks
We know virtually every single part inside of the Switch 2
Thanks, logistics companies
we'll see I guess but handheld has been done now so unless they bring something relevant to the table and it performs like garbage, I'm not sure what the selling point is
Switch 2 is highly unlikely to perform like garbage lol
It's utilizing RTX 3000 series silicon, that's far more up to date than Maxwell
im buying one

I'll settle for one, prolly day 1 due to homebrew
then im buying three
Then I am buying all.
There's no laws against it Batman, you can't stop me
i'll find a way
The only thing at this point I don't understand is.. where's the release event from Nintendo
We know what Switch 2 contains, virtually every single part, we know how the inside looks, we know how the outside looks, we know the new features, we know the software it runs, and even launch titles, virtually everything about it
The fact it's not launching yet is bizarre 
just wait the max 3 months
I'm still sticking to March release
hey, just a pc question. does anyone know why do i have like 12 days work time in windows manager but u just unplugged pc from connection?
what
Prolly on-time?
This?
That counter resets randomly, I shut down my PC every evening and it still counts on
if you mean up-time then it's not resetting on shutdown if you have fastboot on because it's really just hibernation (saves memory contents to disk and powers off the system, then pulls it all back when you turn it on again, so it technically never "reset")
a reboot will reset this, or turning off fastboot and shutting down
also don't post in multiple channels
Hopefully switch 2 is good
One of the few console where mobile rhythm game can still go in and not having to deal with annoying thing like having to constantly be online.
classic windows screwery
99.99% of users have no idea this is going on
Specs wise it should be faster than Steam Deck
And considering the fact that Deck runs virtually anything (from platform standpoint i.e PC games), and Switch games are purpose-built for the hardware and megaoptimized (Like PS5, for instance), it'll be a very good console, imo
It shouldn't have issues doing 1080p60 reliably with good visual clarity
Hell, they have DLSS if they fail to hit 60 FPS lol
But yeah I think Nintendo will actually have a decent console for once
pls do more then 1080p 😭
Well the output chip it has supports HDMI 2.1
But it ain't gonna render nothing at 4K native
Possible people will hack it to DLSS image to 4K or something
No framegen sadly, unless someone ports FSR3 to it and I don't see any game doing that
Does anyone even use the touchscreen
My Switch has been docked since I got it, so idk what's the point of the touchscreen tbf
Arcaea too
i hope for some 1440p in the dock
Handheld gaming is weird
I sincerely doubt that without DLSS and some hacking it'll do anything bigger than FHD
I guess the 9950x3d ain’t gonna be it might just get the 9800
lit the way to experience the game without the grind from the mobile version (at least for Arcaea)
how is that not possible after 7 years
Are you being troll or what
nah but it does 1080p fine rn
cant be that hard to do atleast 1440p in an upgraded version
It'll do what the screen is set to, which is 1080p
If Nintendo utilizes upscaling, it can upscale to higher resolutions
But it will not do native
It can't run any games in 1080p lel, it's a 720p image stretched out
Some games should run fine at FHD
It does some games native 1080p rn according to DF
Just not on any big titles like pokemon arceus or zelda
As far as I'm aware it's not native 1080p but weird upscaling from 720p to 1080p
Kinda inbetween

If Nintendo utilizes hardware accelerated upscaling, it can prolly do a decent image of 4K with Switch 2
But not native, that's not happening 
Wasn't mariokart a launch title for Switch 1?
Cause supposedly it's the launch title for Switch 2 too 
I don't get the interest in Mariokart of all things, but I guess there's a market for that stuff
Mariokart just infuriates me, if you are number 1 you are constantly targeted by heatseeking missiles and fucked up
The design is bullshit
I guess I'd rather just play Gran Turismo or Forza or something
but for me mariokart is like one of the main nintendo games
like people buying it just for this game
ah and seems to be by far the most popular switch game
Without even looking at that data, I do remember reading that Mario Kart is number 1 selling title
It sold a metric ass ton of copies, like 24 million or something?
bit more haha
I wonder how many of those were not actually sales but bundled versions
I think a lot of people bought game bundles back then
i mean everyone knows mariokart
64 million eh, that's a lotta game
Nintendo shouldn't even be publicly trading, they can be as rich as Valve and private with their sales numbers
Nintendo is surprisingly not as rich as they should be
They sell so damn much you'd expect them to be trillionaires by now 
oh wait google showed me everything in jpy 😭
we gotta get a better steam alternative
im lowkey a hater
There are so many alternatives... Epic games, Uplay, EA has one, etc etc
And they're all garbage
sadly
steam has its flaws but the others have all been worse
Why would steam work to innovate and improve its offering if the competition is that bad?
the crazy thing is how much epic its pumping with free games
but the launcher its soo baaad
its slow, lacks features and is just aaasss
more games should be in the microsoft store
I don't know how the windows version of Heroic is, but that would be a decent user experience.
Store agnostic to some extend platforms, if the smaller ones integrate with that would be a better situation.
Still don't mind Steam but as a linux gamer I am biased.
games for windows live
Ewwww
Ideally other stores would just use a common platform and not compete with steam on that side at all.
They simply cannot win against steam on their own
tbh just have everything avaible there so its like the apple store or google play store
Steam is that on PC right now
for the most part
To me worst-case is the store being in the hands of the OS maker.
Google has little incentive to make the play store better for the user.
Hello, i have a question, does the Wooting 60he+ can go to 8000 hz ?
No

but its only some games and its not that good
For other things you generally can just use winget
There are also some gui's frontends for that too.
why not just have it on the preinstalled store everyone got
its more games than anyone else has and its better than what anyone else has
i love monopolies
not a monopoly if its available everywhere
Main reason is it put's control in the owner of that store.
Android can restrict more what people do, if for some reason an app has issues with the store it will struggle to find an audience. Sideloading be scary.
For example syncthing's android app got discontinued (and forked) because getting approval was hard.
This is a consequence of having a single gatekeeper.
Then there is the fees around subscriptions.
And let's not forget the mess that is Apple.
thats not what monopoly means
have the apps and games be available on multiple stores (so people can still use steam if they like some of its additional features), handling subscriptions is a bit tough ye
The problem is if it becomes a default, it will be hard for people to step outside the bubble.
Creating the defacto effects. On android you can install things from other stores, but it's hard for them to get actual use.
what would be a monopoly about this then
it wouldnt be a monopoly per se, but a preinstalled store made by the OS is very risky as they can just block/restrict competitors
so it is liable to become one
so you would be worried about this control swapping from one default (steam) to another?
the benefit is greater then the potential risks for me in that case
As long as it's not microsoft, not really. They will still have to compete on quality.
so we having worse user experience for more open markets :/
I mean if you consider the Android user experience better. I do not.
dont really use android but the ease of use and speed would be improved a lot for me
not having to use multiple stores and launchers all the time + download from websites
I hardly ever downloaded from websites on recent windows use / launchers are just that, the thing that starts when your installed game launches.
As for right now on linux, generally I just install packages from the main repositories, and games from mostly steam + some on heroic (launcher for epic games / gog / amazon) This is perfectly fine by me.
okay
i mean another alternative would be to just have games available on their own again via web download
I do agree that most launchers are just needless extra steps yea, rather have them as downloaders / repositories and not as something to use every launch.
I think whenever a new mouse comes out, there's the obvious question
What does this do that other mouse don't
at this point it's which is the cooler looking mouse
I looked up the sensor and the PixArt PAW3950HS seems to be quite new?
this isnt that light(45g), 3950 + 52840 same old same old
So is it just.. faster than everything else?
most of the competitors all use 3950s
Cause the lack of innovation or anything else in the mouse field is disappointing, I mean, how can you even innovate a mouse
heavy
I think they should just invent some unbreakable mouse switches and an indestructible scroll wheel, that seems like innovation to me
zeromouse blade :D
lowkey the most "innovative" one rn
Looks shite
china's just getting a local release of the pwnage trinity cf and it's already too expensive, at 1999 rmb
37g tho...

End of the day mice don't need to be inovative, I'd rather have them compete on price at this point.
No way those light weight wireless ones need to be that expensive.
Or rather most of them
I'd rather them compete in support and reliability
Too many mouses just break, start doubleclicking, the software is god awful trash
i just want someone to make a better superlight
Prolly by far the worst aspect of keyboard peripheral market are the mouses
Mouse software mostly needs to be set and forget. Doubleclicking is mostly a case of low voltages and agressive debouncing.
My Viper V2 is starting to doubleclick quite a bit and the scroll wheel is almost nonfunctional anymore
Just switched to OP1K and it's a nice mouse, has some quirks but it works
I agree, but at the same time, my very old cheap sharkoon mouse had no such issue.
Competing on price probably not gonna change that. Same with bloated software packages.
Budget logitech mice are still decent.
Maybe touch sensors or something are the way to go
I'm also thinking perhaps combination of eye tracking and a mouse for precise input is also the future
I am just saying the low hanging fruit to me seems reversing the price creap we have had.
€ 60 mice should be a perfectly viable price target for most features we come to expect.
Eye tracking for you know, being as fast as you can to react to whatever's happening, and mouse for the disorienting shit like turning your screen and whatever, that seems like the obvious stuff to innovate on
Personally using some red dragon mouse and apart from the software being absolute garbage, does the job nicely.
Jesus Christ fucking 9800 sold out in less than a minute just now
Yeh
damn
I regret cancelling the order when I had bought one now
i wonder what rtx5000 ordering will be like
Depends on the card, on availability / pricing mostly.
The pricing is insane on these
Someone picked one up just now at 740$ since one disappeared from the selling options
yes
imma wait a while 😅
Tbf 7800X3D is also 568, that's a lot, I wouldn't pay more than 350
me sitting on a msrp one from the first wave and having a 78x3d from when it was cheapest 
damn i wish i wasent banned
Banned from.. where? China?
there server
melgeek getting into the low profile game as well
Damn someone else just bought another 9800 at 740$ 
yeah they said the restock should be end of december which with christmas shopping I guess got pushed to this week
yep it now says 3rd
I’m expecting a restock within the next 5 minutes over here
okay this colorway but in a not-ugly design is something I need in my life
those side holes lool real good 💀
Fucking Christ dude it fucking sold out again
Just make a script for it lol
wonder how much it updates to when the next wave comes in
hehe
well yea its the only cpu worth getting
if your budget allows for it
The 9950x3d doesn’t even seem worth it at this point from all the rumors
not for gaming at least
never has been for gaming yeah
I don’t even wanna think about how fucking hard it’s gonna be to get a 5090
Well if another drop happens it’ll be in like 6 hours
it's cringe that we live in an age of abundance but we can't have enough junk for people to buy for some reason
I just want the middle ground in pc specs
I swapped back to my 4K monitor
2K ain’t for me anymore
Yeah im kinda happy that my pc able to use 1440p
2K is awesome it’s just that weird resolution I got on it that sucks, it’s like barely an ultra wide I believe
I hate ultrawides anyway
1440p is 16:9 anyway
For me ultra wides are not viable
I really wanted to try it since it gets hyped up but I don't even do like a multiwindow
I dont have the space for ultra wide monitor
People that get those 57” 
I think the comfiest I can fit is 34”
that's already very impressive 😏
I dont have enough space with one 27” normal monitor 
double monitor though!
Yeah but i love that way
double monitor is essential
nah almost every game these days supports it, I had only 2 where I just used mods bc its elden ring where it renders fine but puts black images on the sides for "fair gameplay"
Most of the time i have a stream open on my 2nd monitor or discord or something
my second window is for discord
oh I'm using a second monitor with UW
you are on my second monitor rn
UW isnt a replacement for second screen
hey guys! i was wondering if anyone has ever had this issue with their wooting 60he+ keyboard & wootility?
after i downloaded wootility and setting it up, after playing for max 20 minutes some of my usb ports stopped working. when i restarted my pc, it said “usb device over current status detected”
in order to even get my pc to turn on, i have to unplug everything. my mouse, keyboard, mic etc. i tried plugging in the old keyboard but im still getting the same problems (please keep in mind i was not having this problem before)
is this an issue with wooting/wootility? should i reach out to their email? or is this a problem with my pc?
i’m just so confused as to what even happened ):
it is a bit strange
broken usb port, could be debris in it, could be broken cable/connector etc. but if it doesnt happen again safe to just ignore it
if it still says that error check for those things
it turns on and everything works when i plug it in including the wooting but only for a minute or 2 then only about 2 or 3 of the usb ports keep working till i hard restart the pc, like unplugging the power supply and every usb port
this started around like. 12am last night and it’s still happening
i checked all the cables and everything already and nothings visually wrong
try different usb ports or not all usb device at all and see if you can narrow it down to one thing
i’ve tried the front and 2 different back usb ports and none really stay on for more than a minute or 2 just whatever my old keyboard and mouse are plugged into…
should i reach out to wooting? i feel like ive tried everything at this point
you mean it happens if you only use your old keyboard too?
yeah it just started once i set up my wootility and my keyboard
then its just coincidental timing
nothing FULLY works, not even my old stuff. it stays on for like. 2 min then it all just like shits out
that’s what i was thinking, but i also was like “well idk cus it did initially say the wooting keyboard was taking too much power”
overcurrent != overpower
and if its overcurrent then its more likely from a short in a broken part of the board or something
ohhhh i see
who knows, maybe there was something that broke when plugging in the wooting cable due to debris in the port, or something else that just was almost broken already and just went over the top
i’m smelling what you’re stepping in
or the board just had issues that barely didnt get triggered before
right
i getcha
i was like abt to crash out cus literally got a new monitor too for christmas and it arrived broken, then this all happened a week after
oof thats tragic timing
me last night fr
i just wanted to play val ):
yeah i have my hubbies new pc, im just scared to break his too
cus it’s literally like. 2 months old
lol
LMAO
always the damn frog
could still make a post in #1019755933959733258 and post pictures of the usb ports/cables maybe someone can see something or has another idea but I'd doubt it
notFroggers
how do I even delete a profile from my keyboard
v5?
what
how. mine doesnt ask for update and is only v4
got it thanks
GeForce RTX 5060 for laptops to be faster than RTX 4060 Ti desktop New Leak directly from China. As always with third-party 3DMark leaks, it’s important to take the information with a grain of salt. However, as we approach the launch of the new generation of NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 graphics, it’s likely that these […]
Hmmmmm
I do hope that the 5060 laptop GPU is more efficient as well
Since that's the most important aspect of a laptop GPU is the efficiency.
that's why I threw mine away, having a second monitor just to look at discord was really only a downside for me
distracted me from whatever I was doing on the main
A Razer blade 14 can handle 125 watts without issues
So cooling tech that we have now can handle higher power limits
But the batteries will not
random forum poster math isnt evidence
There is a new ion exchange tech that is dead silent and uses high voltage to ionize the air and move air that way.
It's more compact and extremely quiet.
you do know those are worse than fans because it takes more energy to cool it with those
so even more power draw on the battery
The airflow per miliwatt hour is similar to that of a fan of similar airflow.
It only takes slightly more power.
It matters cause there were news from Korea about Nintendo using Samsung's 5nm, which is supposedly is part of the Samsung 7LPP line
you do have a point
but its my only social life i need it 
from what we know so far it can be like 30-50% worse CFM
It is slightly worse, but it's not too far off for a 1st gen product
yeah so 30-50% in this case
and people hyped frore up the same way and see how shit that is in comparison
so I'm only taking even these ones with big grains of salt
Yeah, it's not perfect now, but in a few years time it can get better.
we'll see, thats not a guarantee
This won’t recognize as the boot drive I put the old drive in a new pc don’t know why it can’t recognize it
it doesnt see the drive at all or it sees it but it wont use it as boot drive?
It sees it but won’t use as boot
go advanced settings or something and select IDE Configuration to AHCI on
po
Ok*
am I in the right section? (I don’t really use BIOS that much)
I don’t see IDE
Nothing
It’s on ACHI
can you show the screen?
Where would that be
i'm kinda confused :D
That won't change anything, it could be that drive did not have anything bootable to begin with, or its a legacy booter
Leave that setting as AHCI
but they said it was from an old pc
I got it from my Lenovo prebuilt
so it should have a bootable flag?
If you're sure it's a EFI thing (should be if it came with Windows 8+) go to the EFI shell (it's in exit or tool I think) if you can and then fs0: (and 1, 2, 3,4..) then dir to locate the boot partition (it'll have an EFI dir and a couple other things), cd into it, then find the booter there. It'll be in /efi/boot/bootx64.efi
It’s windows 11
that is 8+ :D
Oh then it might also be it was set to RAID mode by Lenovo, potentially destroying compatibility
could be
Can I attempt that?
I would check the EFI shell
How do I do that
I told you how
could turning secure boot off help?
Yes it could
where’s the exit tool (you will have to guide me through everything im sorry)
It's in one of these
ok I luckily have a usb
Will it wipe the data on the storage?
No
the EFI
It's in one of the menus, also the search function on f9 might help you
and then try to just boot with secure boot off
it might just work with that off already
Perhaps
what is asus cooking
Custom is the way to go methinks
It was already on that 
Then find the other options for it, probably somewhere in advanced or boot
Advanced -> trusted computing maybe
That is security device support
Or you could just get the Windows 11 install media and see if it detects that existing install and repair it
It does say secure boot but I can’t turn off
save and exit?
In the exit section
It says I didn’t make any changes to BIOS
Alright then
So save and reset?
Sure
It didn’t do anything
Okay now try the EFI shell. Or grab that install media and boot that
how do I acquire digital signature for the EFI shell file
and store it in usb flash drive
That is advanced stuff if it doesn't let you past that then all hope is over (damn, ASUS still doesn't have the shell built in?)
So what do I do
Grab the Windows 11 install media, repair install
Or whatever OS you had on there
where should it be
If you don't have install media for the OS you have to make it https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11
so I download that onto a usb and put it into pc?
your OS is windows 11
yes
then boot from that stick
then you can try repairing in there
The only other pc I have is a Chromebook so would that work
Ok
if possible, use a USB no bigger than 8GB
The one I have is 256 Gb and that’s the only one I have
How old is that old computer by the way?
Lenovo one or the one im trying to boot
Lenovo
ouchie well lets see if the bios likes that
I got it form Costco and it’s like 2 years used
So should be new enough to not be a legacy booter..
lenovo fuckery suspected
ok let me get my Chromebook
Or previous owner did a silly
if i should shut up, tell me ngh. you're more knowledgeable ^^
No I used it
Oh wait you mean you used it 2 years
Yes
It was pre installed so I never messed with BIOS
Sorry I had to go for a bit but is that part of the windows 11 install?
Both of those files
it’s chrome though
I can try
yeah thats what I meant
Literally just a webbrowser
yeah yeah
Cant do shit on those machines unless you install linux
Download the iso then
How do I do that
And then apparently you can usethe Chrome recovery media creator to do it but that will destroy everything on the flash drive
I have nothing on it
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11 right here, still
Download Windows 11 Disk Image (ISO) for x64 devices
Also it’s a school Chromebook with restrictions so would that affect anything?
Depends on how much they restrict stuff
Is it even x64? Isn't it android?
They don't have a working real computer right now, so they have to use the chromebook to make install media
Can't do that, that would risk making it useful!
So I download that and put it on usb?
Not quite.
Almost! APparently you use the chromebook recovery utility for this, it can put any ISO on the right way
can you just guide be thruogh and I’ll provide pictures I don’t know what im doing
windows 11 is on the usb and I go to recovery now?
Download the iso. Install this on chromebook https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/chromebook-recovery-utili/jndclpdbaamdhonoechobihbbiimdgai?pli=1
Launch it.
Click the settings button in that app, use local image. Select the .iso you just downloaded
Uh extensions are blocked
Well tough shit
Do I have to get new storage?
Time to put the drive back in the old computer, boot it back up, and use that to make install media
man this is crazy
i mean
if you have a 256gb stick
cant you just secure your data
wait
you still need the media creation nevermind me
Ask to use your parents computer temporarily
I don’t think they would let me
They usually don’t
so I get media creation and windows install on usb
im not entirely following you
Use the media creation tool to make install media
I open the file?
It is an executable so yes
Give me the link
Scroll up
This?
Yeah that one also works
ok so im looking for a charger Becuase it died
but I run windows media creator then what
You create install media then boot said install media on new computer
What's it look like?
seems good i think?
Yeah looks correct, now boot that shit up on new computer
I plug it in to the new pc?
Yes
