1.8mm leds were also sold in packs of 30 or 60 and 2 of them were dead

had to use a spare linear i had

[lost fossil]

it is, mister squidward, it is

[lost fossil]

rebar reference in 1990?

[snow rover]

why put that effort into whatever that is

rk61 or some other ied

[lost fossil]

why the hell not

the only upsetting part is that the money that i spent on this all things combined is quite a bit more than you'd spend just outright buying a chifi 60% and it would also have rgb, too

but it's fine

actually the reason was that some switches started giving out and i figured why not replace them and do the rest of what you see on that pic while i'm at it

[snow rover]

well idk not being able to remap completely would make usage pretty infeasible to me

millmaxing and putting leds on a keyboard that sucks is not on my bucket list but

[jovial tide]

anyone else here use davinci resolve and it freezes on startup?

[latent drum]

Is there even a reason left for AMD to compete in europe gpu wise

I have the rtx 3070 now. Is there any better graphics card that would be worth the money and give a noticeable difference in fps or should I just stick with 3070 for now?

[nova steppe]

Does is pass my band class for me?

[thin turtle]

are you the dude who had drivers issue like a week ago

[thin turtle]

if you try hard enough

[nova steppe]

What's your CPU?

[nova steppe]

I was actually going to ask "what band", but then I realized my keyboard was in the way of the bottom half of the image, haha

[thin turtle]

well the band is a range of frequencies

[rigid sage]

I don't think so. I've had driver issues but not for a while

[rigid sage]

Ryzen 7 5800 8 core

[rigid sage]

So many emojis i have no idea the meaning of haha

[nova steppe]

ah, then yeah, you could actually see a performance uplift by upgrading the GPU. To which one, though? I have no clue, unfortunately

Depending on how my year goes, I probably won't be upgrading until Nov-December. Running out of VRAM on the literal handful (if you count each finger) of games I play is increasingly annoying

[spiral jasper]

No i am

[thin turtle]

[spiral jasper]

I found a solution for better performance

I need to put my pc in a better position so it can actually grab air

And overclock it a bit

Hopefully i wont be stuck in my little setup for long

Table brok : (

[silk plaza]

Sir are you taking bites out of that shelf

Particleboard doesn't even taste that good 😔

[spiral jasper]

No it collapsed when i accidentally leaned on it

[snow rover]

this image makes me uncomfortable

[spiral jasper]

The table also cut me as i was falling

[snow rover]

hell even that shelf looks about ready to dump all that stuff on you

[spiral jasper]

The angle of the photo makes it look like its not level

But it is

[lost fossil]

what in the hell of a fuck

[snow rover]

i'm so confused on where one's feet would go in this setup

or arms, even

[spiral jasper]

Yeah idk

Im 6'4 btw i fit somehow

[silk plaza]

Through the tempered glass

Foot warmer for when its winter

[spiral jasper]

Its a room warmer

[silk plaza]

Anyways yeah thats definitely a really awful spot as far as thermals go

[spiral jasper]

Since the air has to take 3 90° turns to get to my cpu cooler

And theres like 3cm of space between the case and wall

So not optimal

[silk plaza]

You could probably shave off at least 7-10 degrees just from moving your pc elsewhere

[spiral jasper]

No where else to go

It is what it is

[silk plaza]

Out the window. Mount it like an air conditioner

[spiral jasper]

Plug in a vga cable and hang the case outside of my window?

Ok

Temporary solution

Also a scoliosis speedrun since i sit on the bed

Dont mind the super cool awsome mega sick lego tank on the shelf

[snow rover]

that looks better than the previous setup

[quartz kayak]

Wtf why are you using it then

You should use one of those nice heavy keyboards

[lost fossil]

• i already have it
• it's not squeaky and you can barely flex it unlike cheap ewaste from amazon

[quartz kayak]

You deserve better

Also stop using the term squeaky as if it was a bad thing

[cold elbow]

It's a bad thing for keyboards.

Hey can anyone explain how to solve this question -> Find all points of discontinuity of f defined by f(x) = |x|-|x+1|
I checked on google but it is redefining the function but i just dont get how

[brave field]

How would you go about contacting a parent about a device his or her child stole?

[silk plaza]

I mean, if you want to throw away the idea of legal action, I'd personally just message them straight-up, and relatively casually.

"Hey, just wanted to let you know that it was discovered your child had taken something that didn't belong to them" or etc.

How to proceed from there is entirely up to how the parent(s) react

If you come across as overly-confrontational and/or aggressive, that just increases the likelihood of them reacting defensively, and otherwise escalates the situation more than necessary

[twin badger]

Tell the parents their kids are their responsibility and anything the kids do is up to them and they should be responsible for the stolen goods.

[upbeat spade]

this

[upbeat spade]

absolutely not this

professionally, you never tell anybody it's their fault - particularly when it involves precious little semen demon

tell them that the incident occurred and that you'd like to work with them to find a solution, allow them to deal with it - if they refuse, then clearly the apple didn't fall far from the tree you escalate as required

don't tell them it's their fault right off the bat because then you're just offending them and asking for a drawn out battle with them

you get fuck all from people who are defensive, if you want an easy solution then do not ever do anything that would cause them to act defensive

[silk plaza]

I think the professional terminology is 'crotch goblins'

[upbeat spade]

i almost prefer 'hellspawn', but some people wouldn't get it

[minor saddle]

what is good motherboard compatable for a while

[cold elbow]

Any am5 motherboard i guess

[minor saddle]

will it work with most parts

[sharp coyote]

Only with amd am5 cpus

So starting at 7000 series

[minor saddle]

so it wont work with old parts?

[nova steppe]

no

storage, yes

well, everything but cpu and ram

so storage, gpu, other pcie cards, that'll work

[junior flax]

In what kinda context

like a school and a child stole something?

Just do it professional asfuck and be like your child has stole a device and you as the parent can be held financially responsible

Can I see temps while gaming? If yes, how

[civic cloud]

Open hwinfo before you start gaming

It will save max/min temp for the duration you have it open

And will show you the current temp

[void turret]

Ok, thanks

[lost fossil]

why not use issi afterburner

i mean sure it doesn't know the difference between tctl and tdie on amd but other than that it's way more convenient than hwinfo

[void turret]

You use that?

[lost fossil]

aye, i do, mister squidward, i do

[snow rover]

why did msi change their logo to iisi

it looks so goofy

[void turret]

Agreed

[cold elbow]

Stopped using afterburner long time ago

[nova steppe]

What were you using it for, and what do you use now instead?

[cold elbow]

Monitoring and overclocking
Now i just use the built-in tools in AMD drivers

[wary pawn]

Brilliant naming

[void turret]

Makes sense

And how often is recommended to clean case from dust?

[wary pawn]

Are you living dusty place?

[void turret]

Hmm.. I try to clean my apt every 2 weeks

[wary pawn]

I clean my laptop every 6 months at least.

For normal desktop cases, i would still do same since it is dusty where i live.

[void turret]

Ok, not so often I was imagining

[wary pawn]

If it was clean, maybe around once a year, or twice.

[wary pawn]

If it is making sounds, if temps are getting high, if you know it is dusty (you can see dust etc).

[void turret]

I dont have a glass panel so probably open my case occasionally to check the situation

[wary pawn]

Just use temperature to figure out

And maybe check stuff once a year or twice (for melted cable etc).

[void turret]

Yeah, actually. I put m.2 ssd below gpu. Idk is it a good place but there is a slot and there was a locking part ready so I put it there now

[lost fossil]

there should be a slot above the gpu though

if there is one, that would be the most primarest one and you should put your windows drive there

[void turret]

I have 3 slots, yes one is above gpu and third one is below 2nd place

[void turret]

I dont remember what slot were pcie 5.0, does it matter if ssd is 4.0?

[lost fossil]

no but the one above the gpu is the only one connected directly to the cpu i think

others would be connected through the chipset

[void turret]

Ok 🤔

[void turret]

Is there some difference in usage?

[lost fossil]

it's no big deal but if you ever get in there for one reason or another i would suggest to putting it in the top slot

[void turret]

Ok, I'll try that soon

for gaming only, cpu is overkill

9800x3d + 5090 would be way better

[sterile cliff]

Hm yes starter pc

Pretty sure thats like the only pc you'll ever need

[ember lynx]

i need a benchmark on this tho

need to see how it will run on games

valorant gta fortnite cod

[brave field]

I'd reallocate your CPU funds elsewhere. Agree with Couch

[sterile cliff]

Youtube videos out there prob with ur spec list

[ember lynx]

6,477.90$ for a pc..

[sterile cliff]

Dont know if those fps or bottleneck calculator websites are legit but i suggest you look uo yt videos running ur desired specs

You can get a pretty decent picture from those

As they do have their overlays open aswell

So you can check how the system handles itself

[ember lynx]

i cant even find a 5090 they are out of stock

mabey ill downgrade and get something like this

[sterile cliff]

The great purge of the gpu's

Or maybe the great scalping

[ember lynx]

idk thats too much for a begginer pc bro my parents are disowning me if i buy that

[sterile cliff]

Either one works

[snow gazelle]

lot of money wasted on expensive mobo, case, cooler, psu, ram but cheaped out on the most important component (GPU)

[ember lynx]

someone give a budget build!

[sterile cliff]

Welll depends on your budget

[ember lynx]

in my country its 100k egp max

so like 2k dollars

idk

[lost fossil]

9950x3d
5080
96gb ram

ok cool but where is the starter pc you were talking about?

[sterile cliff]

2k dollars

Cant you get like a 4060 build for that?

Maybe with an 8 core cpu?

Or hell 6 core?

[snow gazelle]

bruh he wanna play on 4k

[ember lynx]

i was kidding i was gonna buy it but id rather not get disowned

[sterile cliff]

On 2k?

Good lord

[ember lynx]

idc about quality

720p or 1080 works fine

[sterile cliff]

On 2k dollars ur probably for an 1440p type of gaming

4k just needs moar power

though, i need to replace them both.

[cold elbow]

Yes

[void turret]

Thats big

[livid ember]

noctua NH-D15 is not small.

200x30mm fans

[cold elbow]

Also increasing the number of fans should be to reduce noise because you will spin them slow and optimize pressure

[livid ember]

benefits of using a full tower case 😄

[cold elbow]

Not really

But also works

[livid ember]

expandability and ease of workin around in there. i have large hands. they dont work well with teeny tiny spaces

@livid ember I have same kind of cpu cooler you have, was interesting to change case fans when the connector is below cooler

[livid ember]

the .. little fan clips ?

o god fan jumpers on the motherboard -,-.

[void turret]

No, I had 1 case fan and pc shop connected it to cpu_opt slot. I bought 5 case fans and installed them. Put one to cpu_opt

[livid ember]

why don't motherboards ever have enough fan slots ..ffs..

i had to buy a powered fan bus thing just to slot other fans >..>

[void turret]

Not much room to work between cooler and roof

three inches. give or take. 😄

one fan is dying. im not sure which. but lawd oes it make a racket when turning on >...>

OYEA. @steep laurel this was the one that constantly ran at near 90C. lol

but it fit ! 😄

stupid non moduar psu in a teensy tiny space huff

eventually fixed that wiring disster, only realized a decade later that i had put the psu upside down. someone somewhere pointed it out.

[steep laurel]

What even is that GPU

[livid ember]

like strix gtx 970. i think.

still have two of them in my garage somewhere

but tryin to cram it in a hp pavillion. lol working with what i had at the time. saving to get newness

i could hit the power button and go take a long hot bath and it might have started windows by the time i returned. lol (bit hyperbole but still..)

[civic cloud]

Yes finally a good idea

I know there's a motherboard list as well

[cold elbow]

Yeah let's collect all the reliable lists

And sources

[lost fossil]

if i have 2 16gb sticks and 8 4gb sticks, how should i go about putting them in? i have the 2 16gb ones in slots 1 and 13 rn

the logic is not logicking rn

[silk plaza]

Why are the 16gb sticks in 1 and 13

[lost fossil]

bc in a regular pc with 4 slots you don't put them in 0 and 1, you put them in 0 and 2 and then 1 and 3

[silk plaza]

Yeah no ik, and thats to coincide with dual-channel pairing

so then is 1 and 13 a1 and b1?

what motherboard is that specifically

[lost fossil]

ibm 00Y8640

[cold elbow]

This looks like a quad channel cpu right

[lost fossil]

this would've been a lot easier if i had 4 16 gb sticks

[cold elbow]

So logically you start with filling ch0

Idk this is confusing

[silk plaza]

yeah ngl I can understand the confusion xd

one moment. let me turn my brain on a little bit

[lost fossil]

actually that's what i just did and

🤳 🖥️

[sterile cliff]

you're confused, im fuckin confused bro

[sterile cliff]

gonna figure out your exact location using this photo fr

[lost fossil]

what's extra bad is that this is what lenovo say on their support page

In general, all three channels on the memory interface for each microprocessor can be populated in any order and have no matching requirements.

and also i just realized that it says three channels

not fore

[silk plaza]

honestly I think the best way to go about it is to install both 16gb sticks in a single channel on one cpu, then split the remaining 4gb sticks into four pairs.

ex.
cpu1;
- A1/B1: 16GB x2
- A2/B2: 4GB x2
- C1/C2: 4GB x2
~~cpu2; ~~
- A1/B1: 4GB x2
- A2/B2: 4GB x2

err,, hmmm...

bruh, yeah its three channels per cpu

[lost fossil]

tbh i'm half inclined to just use the 2x16 because at least then i get to have more memory

[lost fossil]

that's not gonna work because both cpus need to have the same amount of memory

[silk plaza]

Okay, populate one DIMM per channel across both cpus with the 8x 4gb sticks
cpu1;
1, 4, 9, 12
cpu2;
13, 16, 21, 24

Then install the 16gb sticks in the secondary slot of channel 0 for each cpu, so slots 2 and 14

Are you sure its just the x3550 though? or is it the x3550 M4

[lost fossil]

it might be the case that it could be all for nothing bc at some point earlier i tried putting all 8 4gb in and it gave me the memory configuration error, i just tried putting all 8 in as you suggested and it gave the error again

[silk plaza]

asking this because its the difference between 3 channels or 4 channels

[lost fossil]

weird bc these same 8x4 work separately as 4x4 each so idk

[lost fossil]

it's the m4

[silk plaza]

should be four channels then.

@lost fossil does it work with just the 4gb sticks, excluding the 16gb sticks

[lost fossil]

it do, mister squidward, it do

[silk plaza]

I don't think the m4 will tolerate different-capacity RDIMMS in the same channel.

what about all 8 4gb sticks on one cpu, and the 16gb sticks on the other?

[lost fossil]

let's see

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/904101912201277452/1340412790393012334/this_shit_so_ass.gif

[silk plaza]

that does not sound like good news

[lost fossil]

32gb it is then

[silk plaza]

atp just throw it out the fucking window along with the kitchen sink

or just get proper mem-kits

[lost fossil]

"get" implies spending money or sending a request of some kind and i can't afford such luxuries

[silk plaza]

now I have two big bottlencks

GPU: RTX 3080

[thin turtle]

right

even the monitor is a bottleneck atp

oh man I had to install a new PSU

broke my back on the 24 pin connector

[civic cloud]

Yeah it's so annoying

And the edges are always so sharp too 😩

[junior flax]

am4 cooler connector is worse

felt like i was gonna snap the motherboard

[thin turtle]

rips the whole cpu off

[frigid echo]

ya the standard clip is GARBAGE

[junior flax]

the clip is garbage and the bracket where you’ve gotta put pressure on it to latch it on is AWFUL

[lost fossil]

imagine if this happens to the 24 pin

[frigid echo]

which is why I love this Phanteks cooler I have it has you take the AMD socket clips off and do a Intel style replacement.

[junior flax]

have to run a benchmark on my pc just to get the cooler off without ripping the whole fucking cpu out

[lost fossil]

even the box cooler from amd has you take these clips off

Make sure you haven't left it plugged into your motherboard

[twin badger]

Pretty sure it's a good thing your GPU is fully utilized...?

[cold elbow]

[lost fossil]

yeah chrome needs to btfo

[brave field]

Fully utilized == bottleneck. Two different connotations, same situation

A GPU bottleneck in games isn't something you want to eliminate, its something you want to achieve. The focus on eliminating bottlenecks is harmful.

[thin turtle]

nah

[thin turtle]

enhanced

[thin turtle]

not with a weak ass cpu

it means the cpu isn't doing enough, or the game isn't running properly which I believe is the case here

in the island of Columbian man it worked how it's supposed to, about 80% on both sides and most importantly pushing 120-130 fps on 1080p

max settings

legit this is a 3080 and 12100f combo

how come that this cpu will bottleneck that fat boi

[nova steppe]

if the gpu is running at 100%, it's literally not a bottleneck.

[snow gazelle]

12100 doing 120 fps on cayo? I can only manage like 100 with 12400

[nova steppe]

and isn't 120 the framerate limit on enhanced, anyway?

[snow gazelle]

165

[nova steppe]

ah.

[civic cloud]

No they upped it

Back in my day it used to be 188

Back in my day the non enhanced version also ran well

[thin turtle]

I use very high, ultra is bullshit, cora was right

[thin turtle]

you can tell a component is creating a bottleneck if upgrading it will boost performance

which in this case true for most GPU situations

anywhere, a bottleneck can be found

• RAM
• Monitor
• CPU
• GPU
  even the ssd in some cases

overall "bottleneck" is a bullshit term created by gamers

it will not cause the PC to explode or anything

not a big deal

[lost fossil]

as this user said under a keybored video:

"endgame" is a meme term that keeps you buying expensive boards in the hopes that one might cure your keyboard purchasing addiction. the real endgame is realizing you love the keyboards you have and you don't really need any more because the ones you have look, sound, and feel good, and they do what a keyboard does: type. be happy with what you have and save up for a new hobby, get a dirtbike or something. this is coming from someone who loves keyboards. trust me

That's not fair, Total Annihilation Titans definitely has a RAM bottleneck because you can only play the large maps with +16GB RAM

[thin turtle]

I don't understand the point

can you rephrase please?

like what's not fair

if the device doesn't meet the minimum requirements, is it even called a bottleneck?

[civic cloud]

Yes because it holds the rest of the system back

[thin turtle]

well then

but not meeting minimum req is not what i understood about bottleneck

[nova steppe]

Literally, just upgrading your CPU will just result in higher max fps and less stutters, if you're having any. I just hate the term bottleneck

Mel my pc blacked out and i shut it down then turned it back on and it says cpu overheat but i felt no hot air

there is not too much dust by the fans but my room was hot

[thin turtle]

chat chat

I've a got situation

the big ass GPU as expected is cooking the whole build

the most notable part is that the cpu temps follow the gpu temps 1:1

I have 3 front intake fans and 2 exhaust 1 rear top and 1 on the back

now what

[lost fossil]

if you have an aio for your cpu cooler, set it to intake

[thin turtle]

air cooler unfortunately

I've been thinking of undervolting the gpu to considerable amount

or getting a single fan AIO and make the excess case fan as 2nd top exhaust

since it's an i3

[lost fossil]

what if u reverse the fan on the cpu cooler and also reverse the rear case fan so that it's set to intake from the back

[thin turtle]

red hot blue cold

[thin turtle]

that's a good idea

but not feasible

[lost fossil]

🇾

[thin turtle]

I will have to flip the one on the opposite side which has intake fans

will that not push hot air into the gpu?

or does it have enough clearance to rise

wait lemme try this

you are a genius

hot air in my face

[cold elbow]

Feeling heat meant your cooling system is working fine in transferring heat out of your cpu
Since you didn't then u might have an issue there?

[thin turtle]

what will happen if the ram gets hot

[fickle finch]

I felt no hot air so I guess the heat wasnt transferring out of the CPU properly maybe? im not sure

is it too early to assume thermal paste?

[cold elbow]

Cooking the whole build means u don't have enough exhaust
Make these two fans spin higher

[fickle finch]

btw am i going to have to take out the heatsink and apply a thermal paste on my cpu or whats going down

[thin turtle]

buy contact frame

[cold elbow]

Testing thermalpaste is simple
U look at temps and start a stress test
If it suddenly reports high temps and starts throttling then the paste is bad
(Ofc this is after confirming that your cpu fan is spinning good)

[fickle finch]

good thinking might try that

this is the first time it happened and my room was hot it reached 40c i believe

i think i need my ac to cool

[cold elbow]

You need your ac to ac

[silk plaza]

What da hell

That still wouldn't be optimal, your psu is by technicality an intake. You gonna reverse that as well?

[fickle finch]

it was 80c cpu temp yesterday but after restart its 40c

i think 80c or more is the line where it shuts itself down when overheating

[cold elbow]

Nope

80 is normal

90 and up the cpu starts throttling

[fickle finch]

strange then

[silk plaza]

From the bit I read it seems like your pc isn't properly dispersing heat, what kind of setup do you have for your cpu? And what about the rest of the system

[cold elbow]

Keep hwinfo on to look at all temp sensors

[fickle finch]

ryzen 5 5600 and 4 fans

[cold elbow]

That's......

[silk plaza]

Right but whats the fan orientation

[cold elbow]

A super efficient cpu

[fickle finch]

let me see

how can i check the orientatiob

[cold elbow]

What cooler u have

[silk plaza]

Fans generally have an arrow on the chassis but otherwise you can see which way the motor is facing

[fickle finch]

i gotta shutdown the pc for that

ill do it later

please ping me or ill ping later

its fine now though

[silk plaza]

Front and bottom (usually just the psu) for intakes, top and back for exhaust. If dual-fan air cooled cpu cooler, make sure the fan closest to the back is pulling air and the other is pushing air.

I'm going to work but if you write back here someone else is sure to help you, otherwise I'll answer later on

[fickle finch]

3 fans at the front and 1 at the back

i didnt want to get a ryzen 7 bec it'd require liquid cooling

[cold elbow]

No

A cheap ahh 30$ cooler can run it perfectly

[fickle finch]

[fickle finch]

[void turret]

Talking about headphones, is there a way to decrease or remove 1sec delay of sound when connected via bluetooth?

[nova steppe]

That's the main issue with connecting Bluetooth

Some headphones have their own app to reduce latency, others just got it real bad

If it's connected to a computer, sometimes the "Hands-free Audio" output has low(er) latency, but at the cost of like, 70% or the sound quality

[cold elbow]

Try your luck with changing the codex
Other than that it's a gg

[void turret]

Ok or then I buy a longer cable. A default cable is kinda short

@nova steppe and yes, to a pc

[silk plaza]

I dread anybody that flips their psu so its pulling in air from the case 💀

[nova steppe]

My PSU is in the back of the case, so I couldn't do that regardless. My old case used to do that though!

[silk plaza]

But yeah depending on the case (and even with specific designs) its negligible to overall case thermals. I just meant before that usually thats the only "intake" most people would have on the bottom

And then ironically theres the people that have the cases with bottom mounts for fans, and they just don't even mount the feet and place it against a completely flat surface.

[thin turtle]

undervolting works guys

dropped like 80W

and about 12C

life's good now

nobody is cooking the others

of course I did some fan curving

[silk plaza]

Jesus christ, either your baseline was abnormally high or that was an aggressive undervolt

Not that I am judging, if anything I'm proud

[thin turtle]

it was at 1V ig

now 793 mV

[silk plaza]

Hell yeah

[thin turtle]

no less

it's really wild to think an electronic device draws that much power

that's like 200A current

how

[mystic solar]

great way to keep students engaged..

[twin badger]

Uh, no. Games usually don't need more than 6 or 8 cores and in the case of GTA, probably like 4. So no, your CPU is doing a good job and the utilization is as it should be.

Someone else has encountered oddities with MSI Afterburner? It keeps ramping up the frequency up and down while gaming and when i open it, it stays like this until i restart my PC. Latest version.

[nova steppe]

Back when I saw oddities in afterburner, it was a driver issue. That was like... 5-6 years ago tho...

Check clocks and powers with something like HWiNFO64, making sure you close Afterburner completely, and see if it does the same

[sleek reef]

im suffering with these ram sticks

i got a ryzen 3 3200g and an asrock b450m pro4 r2.0

i installed g skill ripjaws v 2x8 ram sticks 3200mhz

the pc boot loops over and over

i used some old shitty ram I have and it boots

the shitty ram is for 2666mhz

the cpu says it only supports up to 2933mhz

[cold elbow]

Tried to update the bios?

[sleek reef]

board is brand new the new bios says it's beta

it's got the latest bios that isn't in beta

[cold elbow]

3200g is like second gen ryzen

But it should work fine

Being unable to boot completely might be a cause of faulty ram

Ram compatibility usually an issue when u enable XMP

[sleek reef]

i might throw them away honestly

I bought them new in 2023

[cold elbow]

Tried to use one of them?

[sleek reef]

i literally haven't been able to use them since then

[sleek reef]

yeah still didn't work

[cold elbow]

Tried them on another system?

[sleek reef]

i mean I know they did work back then

but i couldn't get both of them to work

because of the motherboard back then

i think the dimm slot was dead

[cold elbow]

Huh

[sleek reef]

long ass story

[cold elbow]

You have multiple variables now

So make sure they work and flip them in the used market

Also that cpu needs an upgrade

[sleek reef]

i do remember testing them individually on the working dimm slot both sticks worked

but that was in 2023

[cold elbow]

There's a big chance they work with newer cpu since memory controllers on the cpu

[sleek reef]

yeah I'm slowly starting to upgrade everything

I'll try one last thing

[cold elbow]

Set it on fire?

[sleek reef]

honestly I would do that rn

but I'll set the memory speed to something like 2133

and install them again

[cold elbow]

Try to reset cmos before

[silk plaza]

Is it just failing to post? Or are you noticing instability

[sleek reef]

it's not posting at all

the fans spin up but keyboard and mouse are dead

no display

[silk plaza]

Like melon said, I'd recommend just clearing cmos memory before you try anything else

If that doesn't work then yeah reduce frequency of both sticks, if it still doesn't post try with just one stick, then the other if it still fails.

And by that point if its still failing after having tried both sticks individually in each slot, chances are your sticks are dead

[cold elbow]

How do u reduce frequency if the bios doesn't post

[sleek reef]

now I'm good I got the shitty ram

im in the bios

[cold elbow]

U can probably oc your shitty ram

And tighten the timings

I remember running my 2400 kit on 2666 in the ryzen 1600 days

[sleek reef]

it's only 8gb 😭 I wanna feel 16gb

[cold elbow]

Oh nvm

[sleek reef]

and windows eats up like 3 gigs

im left with 5

[cold elbow]

Single channel is rough for an APU

[silk plaza]

You can usually access the bios from the boot phase (prior to the POST phase)

POST is done before attempting to boot into the systems OS

[cold elbow]

Ik

It doesn't have a boot phase

Bios didn't Initialize

[silk plaza]

Mb then, I missed the memo on that

[sleek reef]

i hate troubleshooting pc's

i killed my old board too I was trying to be smart and removed the back case fan while the pc was on

[silk plaza]

[sleek reef]

made contact with the io shield and spark came out the screw

[silk plaza]

Same energy as those videos of people removing memory from a running system

Cursed

[sleek reef]

the back case fan was making a grinding noise I had cleaned it and it was still doing it

very stupid mistake lmao

[silk plaza]

Shot bearings, drop of machine oil usually works wonders

Though preferably when the system isn't powered

[sleek reef]

should I just run the g skill ram alongside the shitty ram all together?

[silk plaza]

[sleek reef]

i doubt that'll even work

[silk plaza]

You'll need to run them all at the same frequency but you should really figure out if/which sticks are potentially fried first

[sleek reef]

alright bios is set to 2133 now I'll swap ram

no boot loops this time but still no post

this ram is just cursed

I'll buy new sticks

[void turret]

Good to know

[civic cloud]

Can I do the undervolt within the Nvidia software thing or do I need extra stuffM

[silk plaza]

Should be able to, to some extent within this tab here

but you won't really be able to fine-tune your curves a whole lot (at least not as far as I know anyways)

[lost fossil]

this shit is so ass compared to when it comes to undervolting

[silk plaza]

yeah, I despise it

not even just undervolting, it sucks in general

superficial abstract values that have no actual telling for what they represent

like cool okay, I just set my voltage to 50% but virtually nothing changed. oh okay I change the power to reduce the amount of voltage and draw that goes to my card, but 95% of the time its still gonna try and boost over this threshold and will jump back and forth between two different voltage ranges

what happens when a mfer lets nvidia cook

jesus christ even the idle is absolutely fucked

46 watts

oN wHaT

[civic cloud]

Oh yeah mine is about the same

ok so what do I download for undervolting?

And can I do it once, then uninstall and forget about it?

[silk plaza]

MSI Afterburner, and no you need it to remain installed otherwise your card will fallover to default driver variables (or otherwise if you have the Nvidia app installed for example, it'll use whatever that shitty program mandates)

Probably gonna want to look up a guide for undervolting, it isn't terribly complex though.

[lost fossil]

These settings concern the worst 3080 silicon possible

if you got good silicon on yours, it enables you to undervolt or overclock

ts both windows open absolutely 0 air

[thin turtle]

what game

[civic arch]

does dpi matter in mouse or does edpi matter more

[civic arch]

80c is fine tho

idk 1600 dpi on mouse feels the best

2khz polling

0,7mm lift off

[civic cloud]

We have a lift off

[silk plaza]

I mean it really just comes down to preference, and those are essentially the same thing. edpi is just the effective dpi after factoring in things like in-game sensitivity, resolution scaling, aspect ratio, etc.

[thin turtle]

1600?

[silk plaza]

I usually use 1000 dpi with the lowest possible sensitivity, if a games minimum isn't low enough for me I'll swap to 400 dpi

and uh... if I'm using gun cameras in gta 5, I'll swap to 12k dpi.

[snow gazelle]

they messed up the gun camera sensitivity in the new update

sometimes too high, sometimes too low

[silk plaza]

Yeah, its pretty awful. It just feels way too low, I've never had it too high

like they removed any amount of sens scaling

[civic arch]

does resolution matter

most sens calcs dont seem to care about it

is it calculated differently

[civic arch]

why

[silk plaza]

It can, though aspect ratio is usually more determinant.

[silk plaza]

It really depends on the game but majority of the time I'll want my movements to be 1:1 (or even lower)
