the minimum requirements for the miner i use is 2GB vram more than what i have

#

but it still works

#

or

#

its stopped working now

brave field May 23, 2021, 5:47 PM

#

ETH has required 5gb of ram for around 7 months

stone harbor May 23, 2021, 5:47 PM

#

yeah

#

i have 4

#

still works though RenShrug

brave field May 23, 2021, 5:48 PM

#

You using nicehash or something else that manages it for you? ETH straight up doesn't work with less than 5gb, but software like that will swap to Raven or Conflux automatically

stone harbor May 23, 2021, 5:49 PM

#

i dont really know

#

the miner is called phoenixminer

#

and the algorithm is etchash

#

or something

brave field May 23, 2021, 5:50 PM

#

Maybe ETC then, it only needs 3gb of vram

stone harbor May 23, 2021, 5:51 PM

#

i honestly have no idea

#

when i get a better gpu i'll start actually mining

#

like letting it run for a week straight

#

there are people like this

#

earning a dollar every 15 minutes

#

and $4 when it spikes

I'm waiting for a FHR 3050 ti if it comes out

stone harbor May 23, 2021, 5:58 PM

#

FHR?

brave field May 23, 2021, 6:00 PM

#

"Full hash rate," they're making "low hash rate" versions of the 30 series and I don't really plan to buy an inferior model at the same price

#

LHR is great for publicity, it gets the reddit copypasta folks to bow and get Nvidia tattoos and it also encourages the large, professional farms to go for CMP and continue to use their P10X cards

#

Want to convert more ETH to ADA, the project looks promising and I want to support it

stone harbor May 23, 2021, 6:20 PM

#

are they doing 3050s?

#

why not just buy a 3060

brave field May 23, 2021, 6:29 PM

#

Not sure if they'remaking a 3050/ti

#

but the 3060 is still poor value imo

#

$330 is more than half the cost of my main PC and it performs like trash compared to the 3060 ti for only $70 more, I'm hoping if they choose to make a 3050 instead of a GTX 17 series, its worth its price

#

wishful thinking, just hoping they make something better or similar value to Pascal before its 7 years old

So my old ASUS had an Aptio Setup Utility 2012 screen yesterday. It wouldn't leave the screen even if i tried. Then i turned off my pc and half an hour later turned it on again.

Then, suddenly the screen wasn't there anymore. Is there any chance that it will happen again? According to what i've been told and the articles i've searched, it may be an issue with secure boot or the HD. Does anyone know what may be the cause? Ping me if you do please

@upbeat root Spamming the other channels and not getting a reply is not a valid reason to post it here.

#

If you absolutely cannot wait for a volunteer, contact Rockstar directly at this linkhttps://support.rockstargames.com/categories

#

@fervent granitewait, isn't the whole point of kernel_task to keep your CPU temps down?

#

Use resources that cause heat to tell other programs to stop using resources that cause heat to stop causing heat?

fervent granite May 24, 2021, 2:04 AM

peepoShrug

#

it randomly spikes and I've got no idea why nor can I reporduce it

brave field May 24, 2021, 2:05 AM

hm, it seems strange

#

I would've thought that was a job for the scheduler, unless kernel_task is a visible component of the scheduler?

Does anybody have any experience with in home RGB lighting? Looking for something that let's you customize each bulb individually. Similar to Phillip's hue without the Phillip's hue pricetag.

#

Ok

#

To add, I dont need timers and all that, custom zones would be plenty. RGB strip support would also be nice for under cabinet lighting.

Do they need to be able to be synced with a PC, such as via Razer Chroma?

brave field May 24, 2021, 10:52 AM

#

Probably very doable with Raspberry Pi Zero W if you don't mind having to do some manual work

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 11:45 AM

#

My PC just had the green screen of restarting

#

And it's not done restarting

#

Ok now I'm starting to get worried
How do I stop this green screen of restarting?

#

@brave field help

brave field May 24, 2021, 12:11 PM

#

Need more info

#

When did it restart, why did it restart, was there any error message?

#

@jovial tideAnd do you have any sort of GPU overclock set?

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 12:12 PM

#

What's a GPU overclock set?

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 12:14 PM

#

brave field When did it restart, why did it restart, was there any error message?

Uhmmm like 20 minutes ago
I restarted it because muscle me and it's just a green screen with a unhappy face with "your windows insider build ran into a problem and needs to restart. We're just collecting some error info, and then we'll restart for you"

brave field May 24, 2021, 12:14 PM

#

Ah, its probably not a hardware issue

#

There should be an error code each time you get that screen

#

Do you remember what it said?

#

And also, Windows Insider Builds are the equivalent of beta testing. They aren't for normal use, they're supposed to be unstable

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 12:15 PM

#

Then it says 100% complete
And some sort of thing that says "DRIVEE POWER STATE FAILURE"

brave field May 24, 2021, 12:15 PM

#

Did you install anything or plug in a new component before this happened?

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 12:16 PM

#

My Xbox 360 controller
It stopped working when I played a game and I decided to unplug it from the settings and when I unplugged the USB, the settings still read the controller

brave field May 24, 2021, 12:17 PM

#

That might be a cause. Try booting into safe mode, and remove the controller from Device Manager

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 12:18 PM

#

Cant

#

Its still in green screen mode

#

Mind the mess

brave field May 24, 2021, 12:19 PM

#

If its been longer than 2 minutes and it hasn't restarted on it own, you need to force it to shut down then

#

hold the power button until it shuts off

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 12:19 PM

#

Ok

#

It's off

brave field May 24, 2021, 12:21 PM

#

Now you need to get into safe mode

#

If you can get into Windows, hold shift and click the restart button to get to the recovery options

#

else, turn your PC on, and hold the power button to shut it back off when the Windows logo first pops up. Windows will assume something is wrong and give you the troubleshooting options next time you turn it on

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 12:22 PM

#

Ok I'll try that

#

I accidentally didn't hold the button in and it just went to lock screen
Seems like it's working
Even the 2 blue lights and 1 red light works

stone harbor May 24, 2021, 1:10 PM

#

jovial tide Mind the mess

why is your blue screen green

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 1:10 PM

#

Because it's the green screen of restarting

brave field May 24, 2021, 1:23 PM

#

Windows Insider builds have green BSoDs

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 1:25 PM

#

And my signature color is purple so my stuff is purple

brave field May 24, 2021, 1:26 PM

#

You really should look into moving to a normal Windows install

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 1:26 PM

#

Wdym

brave field May 24, 2021, 1:28 PM

#

Insider builds are made for software developers, programmers, and anyone wanting a system to test unreleased features on. It isn't made for normal, daily use, or running games on, or anything involving sensitive data or something you need consistent access to

#

Its unstable and is mostly used in VMs or on PCs/servers solely for testing

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 1:29 PM

#

Oh
Well I don't think my parents will agree to getting me a new PC or new PC parts and I don't get pocket money so this is all I have

brave field May 24, 2021, 1:30 PM

#

Moving over to normal Windows is free

#

PCs don't ship with Insider installed either, maybe it was installed by mistake?

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 1:31 PM

#

Well my PC was built out of spare parts from my uncle and he's a computer specialist
So maybe that's why I have an inside installed

brave field May 24, 2021, 1:33 PM

#

If you get more errors in the future, consider using this https://www.howtogeek.com/274780/how-to-switch-from-windows-10s-insider-preview-back-to-stable-without-reinstalling/#:~:text=If you just joined the,earlier build” if it's available.. He likely just installed it using a Microsoft account connected to the insider program, hoping it would be fine. Insider often is fine, but you really shouldn't rely on it if you can avoid it. Eventually, Microsoft is going to mess something up, and the Insider builds will be hit first

jovial tide May 24, 2021, 1:34 PM

#

Oh

#

Hmm

#

#

@visual isle excessive heat is a defining trait of gaming laptops, can't easily avoid that one

#

I think I'd avoid that Razer Blade 15 because of its price first though

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:11 AM

#

I’ve read the the razer blade 15 gets extremely hot

#

Like burning hot

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:12 AM

#

They're all 240hz or higher displays and you could probably get the same specs for cheaper with a 144/165hz panel

#

oh yeah, you know the heat problems are bad when Razer themselves have to make a page for it https://mysupport.razer.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/973/~/how-to-keep-the-razer-blade-at-optimal-temperature-while-gaming

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:12 AM

#

I believe the one I was looking at was a 120hz

#

It’s a base model deal for 1300

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:12 AM

#

A laptop should not throttle anywhere near badly enough to shut off or crash Windows, its a red flag that they even mention it

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:13 AM

#

They don’t mention it on the site but I’ve been watching reviews and reading comments

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:14 AM

#

the link above haHAA
The amount of complaints about heat are overwhelming too, yeah

#

would just find something else

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:14 AM

#

Can I dm you the link to it?

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:14 AM

#

yeah

#

hm

#

I don't know a whole bunch about laptop value but that thing has no storage

#

It'll barely be usable out of the box, you'll have to spend more cash immediately

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:16 AM

#

I can just get an external

#

Only really wanna play a few pc games I have

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:17 AM

#

You heavily sacrifice read/write speeds without a more expensive external drive/enclosure
Does it HAVE to be a laptop? $1.3k is also quite a lot to spend if its just for a few things

#

I guess that's not super relevant to this specific laptop but the heating problems are just too bad to deal with

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:18 AM

#

I have zero room for a desktop

#

Don’t even have a desk

#

I just prefer a laptop bc it’s more portable as well

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:19 AM

#

I see

#

This is really a $600-700 PC (in the event the world was normal and 16 sereis wasn't $400) but with no storage, but not having space and wanting something portable makes it somewhat better

#

Skip this Razer one, definitely. Sorry I don't have recommendations, though. Maybe scan over r/buildapcsales?

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:21 AM

#

Just need one that’s reliable and will run the games that I may want to play with good performance

#

Interested in playing arma 3,Gta,rust,Minecraft maybe some others like apex or something

#

Most of my gaming is done on the series x but I would like to be able to play some on pc because you can do a bit more on pc

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:29 AM

#

I haven't researched this laptop at all but its much cheaper and has a much more powerful GPU and twice as much storage. Might be worth considering https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp/omen-laptop-15t-ek100-28n35av-1

#

There are still overheating complaints but far less. Only thing here is the amount of ram being cut if you pick the cheaper model

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:31 AM

#

It looks good is this the cheaper model?

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:37 AM

#

That link is the cheaper one, yes.
Clicking on customize and swapping the cpu to a 10870H and swapping 8gb of ram for 16gb comes out to $1290

#

Alternatively, they do have 1660ti laptops around $900 on their site in the same line, which should perform similarly to the razer one

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:38 AM

#

Will the 8gb of ram be enough for most games?

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:40 AM

#

It'll be playable but I would absolutely never settle for 8gb on ram in a system that costs more than $400, and three of the games you listed can noticeably benefit from more

#

Rust and Minecraft (if modded) especially

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:41 AM

#

Is the 16gb ram enough for most?

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:41 AM

#

Yes

gilded walrus May 25, 2021, 2:41 AM

#

more than enough

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:43 AM

#

If 12gb didn't require split/hybrid dual channel it would probably make sense to have for many people, Windows is just that tiny bit too heavy on 8gb

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:44 AM

#

Is the processor good?

brave field May 25, 2021, 2:46 AM

#

The 10870H is pretty good, yes

#

If you choose the i5 in the cheaper one, its alright too, but newer games won't perform as well

visual isle May 25, 2021, 2:47 AM

I think it's decent but u will have to check some reviews on it for thermals and known issues if there are any

At the end it depends on your use, a better gpu would be better but also more expensive
More ram is also preferable

does VDSL offer 5ghz or it depends from isps?

#

we can't get fiber here so rip VDSL is the best choice for 50down and 40up and I'm wondering if it supports 5ghz, since my PlayStation is right next to my router and could use the ethernet for even better connection

agile siren May 26, 2021, 3:45 AM

#

if you are talking about 5Ghz Wifi, then it has nothing to do with VDSL. if your ISP router/modem dose not supports 5Ghz Wifi then you can just buy an access point and attach it to your ISP router/modem to get 5Ghz wifi. but best way to connect your playstation would be just like you mentioned, just an Ethernet cable.

tulip plaza May 26, 2021, 3:48 AM

Thanks

#

Although from my experience my ethernet is fucking me up in gta, I join in solo lobbies, "the rockstar game services are unavailable" "files could not be downloaded from rockstar ame services" and player data couldn't be loaded

Would this work with the Sky Q routers? Since they use their Sky Q boxes as WiFi extenders (to create a kind of mesh network), but it seems to be proprietary to their stuff only.

#

jovial tide How many people here find RGB hella distracting

Depends on how it's done. Randomly flashing lights can be. But say for example the devices are lit up in a way to provide feedback from the game, say for example tracking health, mana, aggro, etc, in ffxiv, I find it extremely useful and not distracting.

I keep my rgb minimal and monochrome white/gray/black

#

it appears more clean

#

idk

#

well i guess since its monochrome it can really blend well with any color

silent mason May 26, 2021, 4:05 AM

#

jovial tide I keep my rgb minimal and monochrome white/gray/black

Using ffxiv as the example again, I use something called Chromatics (technically against ffxiv TOS but they don't care about it), and it brings up all my HUD info into my keyboard, mouse, etc. So I can track aggro, I can track my health, target's health, etc, all from the lights on my Razer devices.

jovial tide May 26, 2021, 4:06 AM

#

i could see a purpose in that

silent mason May 26, 2021, 4:06 AM

#

So while chaos is flying across the screen from the billion and one spell effects, making the HUD extremely difficult to see, I can just glance at my keyboard etc and use the lighting to see pertinent information

jovial tide May 26, 2021, 4:06 AM

#

I do it only because anything that seems off in one bit automatically gets me distracted. That applies to everything i sense/see in that matter

#

atleast during the day

#

night sometimes it could help

silent mason May 26, 2021, 4:07 AM

#

Yeah that's fair. I'm just using the RGB as an extension, not as its own thing, if that makes sense.

jovial tide May 26, 2021, 4:07 AM

#

yeah

#

More specifically vibrant colors knock me off guard

#

Basically any color but lightened up or toned down is better

silent mason May 26, 2021, 4:08 AM

Although the Chroma Visualiser is cool as fuck to look at.

#

And my god I love ChromaControl

jovial tide May 26, 2021, 4:08 AM

#

for some reason chroma likes to make my color cycle appear red and pink like 70 percent of the time and 30 percent of the time its actually other colors

#

and each color gets its own time equally

#

might be transitioning

silent mason May 26, 2021, 4:09 AM

ChromaControl takes the ARGB, motherboard, and GPU lighting, all from Asus, as well as my Corsair RAM, and shoves it into Razer Chroma Connect

jovial tide Is there an opt for them to ship to US?

US nope, but you've got options aplenty. The name that comes mostly to mind is ibuypower for US. Other options exist. Plus, tech is cheaper in US so you'd be paying UK higher prices and then US import taxes on top if they even shipped to US, if you went PCS

silent mason May 26, 2021, 4:31 AM

Ah so the Enthoo 719 that I have... it might not look it... but it does have quite a lot of airflow

#

Turned the PC on so the RGB would give a better view of it.

jovial tide May 26, 2021, 4:32 AM

so basically its so big that even the front panel has space enough for it to not choke airflow

silent mason May 26, 2021, 4:32 AM

if it wasn't for iCUE I'd have considered that monster myself

jovial tide May 26, 2021, 4:38 AM

its 300 dollar less than the enthoo elite somehow

Bitcoin ‘mine’ uncovered during industrial unit raid | News | West ...

We executed a drugs warrant at a Black Country industrial unit – and uncovered a cryptocurrency ‘mine’ that was stealing thousands of pounds worth of electricity from the mains supply.

Officers forced entry to the premises in Great Bridge Industrial Estate, Sandwell, on 18 May on the back of intelligence suggesting it was being used as a canna...

how do i find a 3070 for under £600

brave field May 28, 2021, 9:42 PM

#

use stock alerts or a bot

#

buy one as soon as they're available

night stone May 28, 2021, 9:44 PM

#

which would be when ? has nvidia posted yet about 3070 restock?

brave field May 28, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

Nvidia doesn't post, no

#

Try PartAlert on twitter, they post very often

night stone May 28, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

apparently they said stock would be in control by Q3 , i heard it from a friend

brave field May 28, 2021, 9:46 PM

#

Most AIBs, Samsung, TSMC, Nvidia, and Intel have said they believe production will be better in 2023

#

Even with more stock, demand is through the roof

night stone May 28, 2021, 9:57 PM

#

damm

#

on part alert , 800 pounds for 3080 (300 above msrp) has sold out already

#

it's insane

brave field May 28, 2021, 9:58 PM

#

yup

#

Everyone and their grandmother and her cat and her cat's overly-animated mouse friend wants one

night stone May 28, 2021, 9:59 PM

#

yeah

#

i am stuck with a gt 710 , should i pay 170 for a gtx 1050? i have a switch and xbox one atm so i can play on those instead but i dont know what to do in terms of gpus as even if the 3080 for 300 above msrp was still in stock i'd still be uncomfortable paying 60% extra

brave field May 28, 2021, 10:02 PM

#

Stick to the Switch and Xbox

#

the 1050 is terrible for the price

night stone May 28, 2021, 10:02 PM

#

yeah

brave field May 28, 2021, 10:06 PM

#

The only way to really lose out here is to be impatient

#

If you know how to download and run a python program and trust open-source bots, you can try that, many people use them and get GPUs at MSRP

#

but otherwise, take things slow. Paying more than MSRP is bad, buying something super weak for 4x the price is bad

night stone May 28, 2021, 10:07 PM

#

i only learnt a bit of programming at secondary school

#

that sounds pretty complicate

#

d

brave field May 28, 2021, 10:10 PM

Setup for most of them is pretty simple, but you will need to enter some information to get it all running

night stone May 28, 2021, 10:11 PM

#

who even sells them for msrp anyway? surely everyone knows you can get over 50% extra now

brave field May 28, 2021, 10:12 PM

#

AIBs on their own sites, I don't know if Nvidia has a partner where they sell FE in the UK but check around for one, rarely they'll be on ebay in buy it now listings

#

physical stores also might have them at MSRP if you're there early morning on restock day

silent mason May 28, 2021, 11:37 PM

Another option, if you need a whole new PC (like I did, and with a 710 you probably do) is prebuilt

and if you have separate router/modem/switches, try a different one

and if you're using the ip on the sticker, it may have somehow changed, use ipconfig /all in Windows or ip r/ifconfig on Android (via termux) to get the ip you should use

Do you have an option called "debug switch" somewhere, like in this guide? https://cyberblogspot.com/how-to-configure-a-pldt-router/

This suggests that its just hidden rather than unavailable

if its truly unavailable, contact the place you got it from. Even with how scummy ISPs are, I think they'd give you something usable as a replacement if you complained to them

Sorry, Sakura edition.

silent mason May 29, 2021, 2:00 PM

Ultimately unless you're using a high end buying bot or buying in store stock only, you've got no chance of snagging a normal one at MSRP.

virtualbox is minimal when it comes to its install and is easy to use

Make a 15gb virtual disk in virtualbox, throw windows 10 on it, give it 1-2gb of ram, get the files you need

Does this look dangerous? I want to play my Xbox (original Xbox one from 2013, so not technologically advanced as the one S, one X, series S or series X) but I wanna keep my PS5 on as I’m downloading a game. I don’t know if I should do this or just unplug my PS5 and play my Xbox, or just play my PS5

#

I think I’ve done this before, except I didn’t have a second console, I only had my TV and a fan plugged into the extension cord as it was hot during the summer

lmfao literally

#

I’m just worried this might be unsafe

#

Sure I’m not daisy chaining with multiple extension cords, which is kinda dangerous I think, but this is two really power consoles, both plugged into the same wall with a tv that also has HDMIs from both consoles plugged into it

#

If anyone knows if this is dangerous or not, please let me know

@worldly blazei don see any danger in that

One of the sockets in the extension lead doesn’t work, would that pose any threat?

Obviously I’m not using that socket as it doesn’t work

when ur device idling and downloading stuff it basically sips power

worldly blaze May 29, 2021, 10:15 PM

brave field May 30, 2021, 1:54 AM

#

Even with getting it shipped to a non US/UK/AU country, it would be hugely cheaper

#

A PC with a 3060 ti should never surpass $1500 USD/$2000 CAD/1200 quid, and really they should be closer to $1100. With a normal 3060, a tiny bit under $1000.

You should consider building it yourself in this price range, with needing more drive space, a PSU, and wanting that case swap, you're basically going through the whole process anyways. You're paying more in exchange for fighting to get the GPU at MSRP, but you're still going to be spending much, MUCH less than $2.4k

zinc forum May 30, 2021, 4:24 PM

your kernel is broken probably because u've not shutting down your pc completely for days

because shutting down pc is not really shutting off the kernel (if you have fast boot enabled)

I boot up my PC when I wake up, and shut it down when I sleep

zinc forum May 30, 2021, 4:28 PM

if u have fastboot and only doing "shutdown" then your kernel is never actually turned off

#

and thats probably whats causing it to misbehave

so should I turn fast boot off?

Could be caused by the GPU driver if windows decided to replace your working one with a random one. Its something you should disable when you reinstall

Intake through rad on front and one exhaust on the back so far

Since hot air rises above cold air, so makes sense to exhaust it out the top.

Air pushed by fans is way too powerfull than natural air flow caused by heat, so it doesn't actually matters
What does matter is having as much intake as exaust.

hollow perch Liquid cooling or air cooling?

liquid cooling is only better because you can have more radiator volume to cool the part because with tubes you can move them away from the socket

#

also liquid cooling can deal better with burst activity because the heat capacity of water or whatever is used for coolant is higher than that of copper and aluminium

What is your HDMI connected to?

#

Your GPU? Your motherboard? Something else?

@brave field I think DISM fixed the issue, my PC has been stable for 17 hours, thank you so much man, you're a life saver

brave field May 31, 2021, 4:52 PM

#

#

@teal flower Check over your TV's input settings

teal flower May 31, 2021, 4:53 PM

#

Like if its on the correct port?

brave field May 31, 2021, 4:53 PM

#

If nothing has changed with the PC, there really shouldn't be any reason why there's no display on the PC's end

#

yeah

teal flower May 31, 2021, 4:55 PM

#

I checked all inputs

Nothing
