Bit of a random question, having issues getting my PC to boot, any one can help me with a few inqueries?

#

Lost power mid update, so boot drive is bricked and causing red and yellow lights on the mobo. Trying to boot from a USB to install windows but since the computer doesn't boot I can't boot from USB lol

#

Sounds like a clear CMOS angle

sweet cairn
#

I don't know what that means/what to do about it

or if u have a button at the back of the board press that

can u tell me ur mobo name ?

Yeah the flash bios button is for updating your bios from a usb

Aight ill give that a go

Clearing CMOS will restore your bios back to factory setting

Don't skip this step or you're achieving nothing.

No luck, starting to worry a component is fried. Might need to get a professional to look at it.

or maybe your bios is bricked

#

wouldnt put it past windows to now try and update random mobo bios

Honestly no clue what happened, really unfortunate timing with my power going out mid update.

Thanks a lot for letting me know about the adapter

Yes my cable management is shit but idgaf. Only thing that truly bothered me was that horrific 12 pin to 3x8 pin adapter

I like how you kept the fragile sticker on your glass

Haha yes

I love peeling everything but that small sticker i let it slide

The damn 12 pin adapter from nvidia was not easy to remove

Im over here sweating making sure i dont break something. Had to use a flat heat screwdriver to push on the release pin because my fingers dont fit

You do indeed appear to be the first one to post

Discord search also, to my knowledge, searches embed titles so that's an easy way to figure out if you're the first to post it

#

Hold on so what's the appeal with another QPX? The prices for that model, at least here and on amazon.com are normal for QD-OLED standards

XG27ACDNG is cheaper and faster so.. idk. But I guess it's good to see more of them

it doesnt quite reach 3000mhz

but the power draw reduced quite nicely

#

memory clocks didnt work it caused artifacting

rough osprey
devout raptor
#

1000mhz might work

#

is it normal for an sn850x to run at 50°c?

#

the chips on the pcb were uneven height so my motherboard heatsink causes it to bend a bit so its not 100% tightened up

ashen spindle
#

yeah thats totally fine

devout raptor
#

if im up to it i might buy thermal pads and just apply two different thicknesses so its even

devout raptor
ashen spindle
#

nand likes being hotter to some degree

devout raptor
#

allright

#

my pny drive is at 30° usually

#

is it worth it to change gpu thermal pads? I have a ventus card which is notoriously bad cooling wise

#

it runs at around 65° under load and 75° memory

#

the memory chips might have bad thermal pads

#

I need to watch that video vid later, but I presume Nvidia is trying desperately to avoid taking ANY responsibility for the disaster that is 12VHP+++++ProMaxS_C#?

fair gull
#

yes

#

in the weirdest way possible

#

tl;dr: best launch cause more cards sold than 40series, availability is low which drives price high but availability is high cause you can preorder(?), the melting thing is the cables/psus fault cause a proper cable CAN NOT melt because all pins are tied together on the pcb(wtf?)

#

oh and 90% of people or smth are using RTX/DLSS which ofc isnt because its force enabled by default in the new nvidia app

#

like they could have literally sent anyone else from the company and gotten the same or slightly better result of an interview

Eh, why should they care, they make a ton of money out of selling shovels for datacenters in AI race, despite the fact that most companies has no idea what to do with AI except random chatbots neuroShrug

Anymore?

Ok since the first bitcoin bubble

Mate they haven't cared about gamers since the 20xx series

#

Probably longer

mild dome
#

I mean as a company they only ever really cared about their customers as a source of income, but prior to cryptocoins eating up all the supply those customers were gamers, and they were prioritised.

Shitcoins, and then AI have shifted focus away from the consumer

Is it Nvidia who doesn’t care about their customers or the game makers?

#

I would argue the game makers

ashen spindle

show me a 2000$ game that anyone sells lol

ashen spindle
#

dunno never played any

#

I’m sure many people here have spent $2000 on a single video game they play

ashen spindle
#

dont think so lol

#

and even if, not like thats necessary then still

candid bough
#

GPUs are used for more than just loading new skins

ashen spindle
#

the comparison just doesnt make sense, games sell skins so thats why nvidia is caring about gamers more?

sudden imp
#

Plus they seem to be improving rapidly with their technology. So I’m excited to see what they have in store.

candid bough
#

I don’t think Nvidia is wrong for it though

ashen spindle
#

what do gaming companies have to do with nvidia selling you a shit gpu generation at bad pricing?

candid bough
#

Forcing everybody to scale up

ashen spindle
#

I repeat, how does that have anything to do with the current generation of nvidia just being a clusterfuck of isses and bad prics and not even really performance changes compared to the last gen

balmy vector

vapid ruin
#

with nvida comes AI... it's good for the people that profit from it I guess

ashen spindle
#

and if you say the good they do outweights the bad... then you just admitted they dont care about customers or else there wouldnt be a need to make up for anything

ashen spindle
#

yeah but then you just agreed your point you made at the start was false and nvidia are to blame

umbral heron
#

Leave multibillion corporation alone reeeee

candid bough
#

Are we afraid they will repeat the same mistake over and over?

umbral heron
#

No stock, inflated prices, no load balancing circuit on cards, broken drivers...

#

They do repeat the same mistake over and over

ashen spindle
#

because nvidia telling people its their fault or the cables fault when their cards are made so shit it causes burns, or is missing hardware parts, or is not sold at the advertisded prices because they want to look better in marketing without actually doing what they say

candid bough
ashen spindle
#

your video game expereince is not dependent on them making the gpu cost something you can afford? and not burn down when its on? and has all the hardware you payed for?

#

so if the next gen costs 30% more and instead of 0-10% you get 0% faster gaming thats still not changing your experience as a regular customer?

candid bough
ashen spindle
#

im not talking about fully unlocked chips im talking about nvidia currently having tons of gpus that are missing advertised cores

candid bough
#

This doesn’t mean I need to be mad at Nvidia

ashen spindle
#

you can get a 5070ti thats literally 11% slower because its missing hardware

#

how is that anyone but nvidias fault

candid bough
ashen spindle
#

why are we now talking about stock price when your previous argument was its just about the video game experience

also these things are not even related to the stock price dip lol

you just added that as an assumption

rough osprey
candid bough
# ashen spindle you just added that as an assumption

As a gamer, how could I possibly be mad at the company enabling us with the tools to be able to play said games.
The games are attention mining which is arguably way worse for everyone than the issues Nvidia has, from a gamers perspective

ashen spindle
#

because its not the only company thats "enabling" gaming?

#

The games are attention mining
what the fuck does that even mean

#

and its not like the issues are wiht new games only, how is it the games fault that if I get a 50 series card now I cant even properly play older games with physx anymore because nvidia removed that, how is that the games fault now

yeah nvidia could make their drivers use a translation layer for 32bit ptx code

But who am I to say you can’t be mad at Nvidia though, like if you focus your time on GPUs, I can see why the points you’re making are important

ashen spindle
#

nvidia is selling you mor expensive hardware that its barely different from last gen with more issues, more driver issues than amd had in years, burning connectors and you talk about how its bad that games track daily active users

digital cliff
#

one thing I can at least agree on, everyone can vote with their wallets and not buy the products if they wanted, additional enragement beyond that is kinda pointless in my opinion

ashen spindle
#

even if all your points about game companies are correct, that changes absolutely nothing about how little nvidia currently cares about regular consumers

digital cliff
#

long as people keep shoveling out cash for the products, they'll just keep making em, gasoline-coated connectors that spontaneously combust and all

candid bough
#

I’m over here trying to say you should be taking that anger elsewhere xd

#

But right, who am I to say that to someone who focuses their time in this related market

#

We need people like that in every corner of the gaming industry

#

Ayooo chill

#

My anger for video game companies is similar to your anger with these dang graphics cards , that’s my argument I guess lol

#

I’m basically tried to sell you on different anger, weird

Useless updates anyways

Oh can we interest you in our yearly new app skin? Or a new look of a widget you got used to but now it's different so you can go f yourself?

security update lifespan is shit too

And that's why Sony is my best friend dogekek

Yeah? And android updates are not what matters at all to me

frozen ingot

you go online with your android device, at least most people do

cursive summit

Well that's the funny thing, I kinda don't

#

I barely use my phone at all, defo not for scrolling random webpages that google props up that are definitely malware

#

Phone is mostly just for 2FA for me, and maybe camera app once in a while

frozen ingot

and you definitely want poor outdated security on your device that handles access to your sensitive data or accounts

So be it

Have seen some contrasting experiences with pixels ranging from no issues at all love it to this phone is unusable dogekek

frozen ingot
#

I've mostly avoided pixels on the basis that google are among the very worst in the industry on things like data privacy or consumer rights in general

#

or the fact that their search filters are used to skew public opinion affecting things like political elections

its still giving them money

not like there aren't dozens of alternatives to pixel with equally good or better hardware

also spending hundreds of moneys on new phone and first thing you have to do is install some dodgy third party os to use it be like

limpid pier
#

Looks nice. What do you think? Control Pad or Speed Pad?

#

Depends on what I play I know, but for what games would you prefer which pad?

bold coyote
#

thats really personal so Im not sure. speed " Perfect for those who demand accuracy and stability in their gaming experience." control "Perfect for those who demand comfort with reliable performance."

#

so speed sounds for shooters etc.

limpid pier

Yeah seems like it, sounds nice thank you šŸ™‚

3dmark is fine for an easy test but the only way to check the stability of an undervolt isnto actually play games

just a gpu-bound game often a good test.

#

The new UI is genuinely terrible.

#

I either pick the old default theme, which is now somehow lighter and more desaturated, or I go one tone DARKER than before, which looks way too contrasty.

#

And there's some weird kind of alialising being applied on top of it.

#

I can SEE it refresh the window and change, blurring text.

unkempt lake
#

I think it makes the text less easily readable at a glance

#

I'm used to just moving my eye sideways and reading discord without moving my head

#

On my 49 inch screen

#

I feel like the new antialiasing forces me to focus more where as before i could just kinda glance from the corner

#

Or maybe im just crazy

I genuinely can't look at the app on desktop. It's hurting my eyes
