It’s a huge fire hazard in my opinion, plastic can catch fire quite easily with the electricity these pins provide in the connector
Yeah and I can imagine the profit margins are tiny
And anyone would go for a founders edition card if it’s cheaper and same performance
Well, I only buy hardware second hand right now, so I guess I've changed with that xD
Only things I buy new are power supplies and maybe SSDs, but that's it
Good way tbh, PC hardware tends to lose value but nothing really happens to them over time
I mean, for that I have my like 15ish PCs, all ready to be deployed or sold. Gotta get them on ebay soon.
Nice lol
anyone know what this is cant uninstall it or turn it off its the thing called altruistics
you can check on google, there are a lot of tutorials, it seems like it's a well known trojan
you should stop downloading random crap, btw
malwarebytes should do the trick
Hey guys
how much do you think an i7 4790k + GTX 970 by Gigabyte and 16gb of ram PC, is worth today? 
One message removed from a suspended account.
The i7 atleast 40-50€, atleast here. GTX 970 depends if 2GB or 4GB version, 70-110€, and 16GB RAM doesn't mention the specs of the RAM.
Didn't know a 2gb variant existed
but no, it's the 4gb one. I saw that listed for 100-120 on eBay and the i7 for 80 or so
I guess... 250 total?
I mean, it really sucks cuz I bought the system for 1500€, 7 years ago 
tech advances so quick that you almost never get out of what you paid for
Ye like, my new rig I got a month ago, I bet it already lost value 
I need some help with my gpu
?

seems about right

Oberon GPU, made by AMD, same architecture as the Radeon 6000 series
Interesting ty
and no, you can't put that in a computer because 1) it is soldered to the board and 2) it doesn't even supports DirectX which is a problem
also, that would be a stupid idea given the price of a PS5 compared to an equivalent desktop GPU
I cant even find gpus for sale under £800 yet i can get ps5 for £400
Thats why i was thinking but okay thanks for help
weird, there are fairly cheap GPUs everywhere now...
yeah, that's what I thought, there are good GPUs for less than 400£
you can find 6600’s for under 250 😅
Where?
Ahh i wouldnt buy preowned
I tried preowned card before and it was so broken
And then couldnt get money back was waste
yes
wut
only poor cable management 😛
have fiber or is that is dial up connection ? haha
Ya what
First pic is a custom patch job, the last patch panel with nothing plugged in
krav the last pic looks like a custom patch job with the white box
the first pic the ends look like what you would buy at a store
it was meant to fall down the hole perfectly but didn't
so you had to improvise?
is that your internet kabel ? all those wires
wireless not option ?
cable tied every few metres
na cos the mixing desk doesn't have wireless
and wired is more stable
wired will always be more stable
7 to 10 yes , i use wireless , rarely getting kicked imo
but instead of running 2 cables, i ran 4
so you get 4x speed ?

Doesn't work like that
what is your ping then ?
nice speed
oof
😉

Just have a nice internet speed :p as easy as that 
flexers
wanna upgrade to 500/50 anyway, when I move together with my BF
time to buy 2.5 gig ethernet

downloading at games at 20 mb is fun when they 200 gb games
well, nice to have 2.500mbit/s - but.... most motherboards have 1GB up/down anyway, not talking about the r/w speeds of the ssd/hdd you are downloading to cant do such speeds anyway.
more of the newer ryzen 5000 and 12th gen have 2.5 gig
Ryzen 7000 and 13th gen, it's basically expected to have it at base. SATA drives are fading.... ryzen is slowing dropping them.
One message removed from a suspended account.
;c
Ah we used to have them but their service was terrible. Just broke down all. The. Time. We just have BT 80 meg atm maybe upgrade to BT 500/900 as they’ve just started rolling it out here a couple months back
Pretty slow but does the job
I wouldn't call it slow, foxxy.
still a decent speed
but would be useless for me, as I need a decent upload speed as I got a media server at home xD
Yeah but, as with everything in the uk, broadband is a scam (or a joke reliability wise) I mean we pay 34/month for 80mb down 20mb up which you never actually get
foxy that's the thing with internet you'll never get the speeds the plan says you are paying for
I have 300/30 and got 310/31 - soooo ur wrong. But mostly I agree with u
you are special kit
it also depends on where on the line you are connected
FTTC
So cable 
FTTC and such a shite conn?
like i have 500 up and down on fiber
must be a joke, right?
Yeah cause it goes to the cabinet so the connection gets shared between a bunch of people
same here actually
but ppl here prefer LTE over reliable cable here 
so I have pure luck xD
just too bad that our apartment is exactly between two antennas, aka we have shite lte connection, yet they still call it "fast"... fast... 😂 have with LTE only 20/8 here 🤣
I’d oonly use lte as a backup, but my phones fast enough to be internet anyway 
while yes i pay for 500 down and up i don't get those speeds
I prefer stable but not as fast internet over fast internet but unreliable.
what i use to have vs what i have now
I suppose but I could pretty reliable use my phone provider and have much better speeds
And this is on my old phone as my 14 pro I’m still waiting for.. after the first being broken now waiting 3 weeks for a second 🥲
ewwww iphones 
I like them but my phone providers customer service has been appalling with returns and re ordering a new phone
You clearly can tell which one is taken in the apartment and which one outside 
assuming the bottom one is the appartment?
😂
yes
If that’s lte I’m surprised it’s so bad on the upload indoors
and the worst thing is..... I just held the phone out of the window.... barely 2 meters difference 😂
its 5G, foxxy
its 5g.....
Yikes
kit you live in a metal box 
but hey, at least on the train station 5G is fully supported and I get more what my contract has... lol
I should have 150/50... but get somewhat on the 200/70 
limiting works well'nt
that'd explain much xD but nah, the building is just veeeery old. like at least 70 years
but that is quite funny that sticking your hand out the window would improve the signal that much
yeah
shit happens 
when I had a LTE router back in my days when moved in, I made it rain and storm safe and put the router outside the window 😂 best signal and internet life until I changed to cable 
Just tried outside.. worse somehow

are we in the internet paradoxon?
inside better in uk but outside worse and vice-versa here at my place? 
strange because going outside I’m a couple steps close to the tower if that makes a difference 😂
give me the raw power
I have this little VHS-C disc thingy.
Anyways I dunno if it works or not because I have nothing to test it with
Besides I must of screwed it up when I was little.
I don't think the tape is supposed to look like that.
Yeah It's probably unplayable.
Yeah
It's cool but it's just useless if I cannot use it.
Do you know the contents of the tape?
And since I can't I don't wanna throw it away.
It's a recordable tape.
Try moving the tape to a readable part and try to play it
dude I just said...
At least I think so...
oh
There might be something in the Storage Unit but I don't even feel like going in there to look for a damn VHS-C Player.
Hell for all I know there probably isn't one.
But oh well.
It's a nice thing to look at.
Doesn't it look cute?
All mini sized like?
smol
It ain't no 8-Track or Cassette Tape but hey it was from a time before Cd's and Dvds and Streaming.
Huh
Nice.
Honestly I don't care if C-Ds are an obsolete media I still have several C-Ds and even some Iron Maiden and Metallic ones in the CD Case I have, I feel like it's a good way to listen to music without using the internet or the music from your pc.
I know what year it is I just choose to listen to music without streaming. And it makes you know you actually own the music.
Whatever year it is I wouldn't care any more about streaming music.
I'll listen to music in my own special way. Streaming is stupid to me.
I'll listen to radio stations as well not like that's a bad thing.
I got hundreds of CD from my blueray set and years of pirating xbox 360 games
Just bought 72GB DDR3L ECC RAM for 40 bucks lol
Never thought of DDR3 being this cheap
Looks awesome capri
thanks

EVGA made prototypes of the 4090 
quite a big improvement from the 3090
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYzJf71WUcM
Sponsor: Thermaltake Core P3 Pro on Amazon https://geni.us/6Q6M
We're tearing down the last video card EVGA ever made - the RTX 4090 FTW3 by EVGA on NVIDIA's Ada GPU architecture. The company last told us that it had no plans to ever make another video card -- that could change, we'll see -- and if it maintains that commitment, this would be its...
That's an understatment
It would have changed GPUs, I mean it has tiny cables for GPU sag and it's plug is on the rear. Nice
welp, 4090 launched so i finally had a decent price on this (1150 euros, VAT included)
o
give me dat
I've seen a 3080 for 749 euros in my local store
so you got scammed I guess?
3080s here are still around 1k, 3090s go for 1700+ and 4090s. well over 2300
so a 3080ti for 1150 is quite good, especially for a good model card
not sure if you can call hat proper cable management but I am too lazy
upgraded my pc after almost 8 years yesterday
from 32gb to 16 GB?
it was used for rendering scenes previously
which naturally requires a lot of ram
as its no longer used for that i figured id go down to 16gb: i dont even need that much in the first place lol
I just upgraded from 16 to 32
I didn't need it too
but my mother bought herself new ram and I got her old

also the 32gb wouldnt even be compatible with the mb lol
well, gotta build a PC for somebody soon
RX 6900 XT, 32GB RAM, B550 Plus WIFI, R7 5800X3D
gonna be awesome
"awesome" and "build a pc" dont go together 
or maybe not bc yesterday was my first time attempting to do it and... it works i guess?

Tbf just with the 1660 would’ve been a nice upgrade
noice

nice 😄
Going to get a 3GB 1060 soon, hopefully it won't be that pain in the ass to clean up
This day and age a 1060? Im barely alive with my 1050 wtf
Still way better than a 1650...
I used to have a GT605, I know that pain
at least my GT 630 is using the kepler....the same arch as the gtx
abit better than the fermi
my sister had a GT 610 and it's far beyond the performance I get with the GT 630
I had a GT320 for 5 long years... slow office prebuilt boi 
Gonna get it as a trade for configuring & building a new gaming PC
Yeah I know, 3GB version sucks, but why not xD
GT 310 heh xD
wait what? gamer mom?

that screen was 299 euros
Really cheap and really good
yay U made it 
Yeh...
It's shet
I regret buying it
omg gimmeeee
Whenever I upgrade (soon future) I'll buy a fanatec I guess
omg
I don't have a shifter :c
But I want one so badly
Thrustmaster has lost my trust 
I bought the pc in 2018 with s HD7770 GPU, upgraded to 32GB ram some time ago
Screen was upgraded some weeks ago as well
same goes about the wheel xD
an newbie 
idk
it is in a very intime relationship with dust
Got that thing from my cousin xD
But hey, free GPU 
my two ram sticks of four are gay aswell
xd
pardon, I guess I should quit these gay jokes
my father wanted to buy me four gay ram sticks but I was too stubborn to wait one more week

I assembled that pc on my own, took me four hours
same hahahaha
I stayed all night awake as I heard the pc is going to arrive tomorrow
Or the parts
h
I bought the whole thing for
uh
1.6 k
Screen and GPU included
GPU was a used , 320 euros instead of 590
link 
Well
I didn't change the paste since 2018 
But it's still running at 40 to 57 celcius
which 3070 did you get?
like which custom model

the po number?

I'm not really familiar with most of the short forms
My new baby
Gotta fix this board up hopefully
Needs new PCIe Slot and has a bent pin in socket, so gotta flex that back
And it killed one of my RAM sticks today during testing lol
Rip
Well, it sure wasn't xD
One moment
With original packaging, and all the stuff inside
Gotta order a new PCIe Slot from AliExpress or so, sadly those are hard to find
And well, gotta repair the 4th RAM socket & bent CPU pin
Wouldn't it be better getting a new one
If you want to invest 120€+, sure, do it xD I don't want that, I wanna reuse the old faulty ones and give them a new life
Regardless of their current appearance
Nice to see tech being reused and saved from landfill
💪
What? No xD
Ah well, if you wanna go over 128GB true, but nobody is that dumb and gives Windows more than that lol
Mines a crappy prebuild that apparently has a "unique" design which uses mostly laptop parts haha nice MSI.
Someday I may want to build my own beautiful beast.
But not this year maybe next year.
Or maybe 2024
Still not gonna install Windows 11 on it.
I'll never do that.
Windows 11 is garbage.
oh is that a laptop or desktop?
Why does my pc sounds strange? I never heard this sound before. pls help
No, yesterday when I started my pc it was the same
it seems that something wants to ramp up, but can't
Then yesterday I cleaned my pc and thought I solve the problem but now it's agaon
maybe try opening it up and using it that way
Again
ah well, what was it?
I opened it and then I removed the dust from my Nvidia GTX and my motherboard
like I said, open it up and let it run while the case is opened
so you can clear out the source of the sound
Ok I will do it now thanks for help
could be a fan failing, likely the graphics card fan maybe
is it possible that the fan of my pc are at the first start loud when i didnt use my pc for like 10 hours?
bc now i started my pc and everything was quiet
Bruh now it's quiet
well... normally that behaviour is not usual, so yeah it shouldn't be like that
hm okay that's weird then
so, can i solve the problem when i change my fan?
depends which one it is
or that it only is a behaviour when the case is closed
can't really argue pro/con without sorting out the source of the problem
ok i will look tomorrow if it's the same when i didnt use my pc for 10 hours. If its the same i will go to the pc shop in my village where i bought it and ask him whats the problem. thanks for help bro
yo np
might of been the disk drive or something vibrating on the cover 🤷
that's a thick air cooler
DRP4 hell yeah
yeah, be quiet makes some nice stuff
still using my old one on the wife's 5600X (wasn't enough for a 3900X OC)
ohh that ones nice too
well, I'm gonna buy I guess two Pure Base 500; the normal ones, so I can build some custom PCs again.
Anyone got a blue screen error with latest 1650 driver
Ummm...
Ummm what
Welp, just got myself a new dead mainboard

I join you guys soon with my 3070 xD
gatki have fun with your melted cables

congratulations for your purchase, kindly make sure you have an extinguisher on hand
Hmm... Well. Uhh.. umm good luck on your new purchase?
I hope your house doesn't burn to the ground...
Stay safe.
All of the tiny fraction of cables that melted were caused by not plugging them in all the way until the clip is fully locked in place. It’s fine
Not all of them. They did also have this occurance on some graphics cards by bending the adapter. But yeah, most of them were because of inproper installation.
because the cables were even more unplugged when it got bent, probably
afaik all the issues were because of cables improperly plugged in
every single one
Either way improper installation was the cause
Easy mistake to make and something to pay attention to when installing but still
yeah, that kind of stuff shouldn't be a fire hazard anyways

One message removed from a suspended account.
think gamer nexus mentioned something bout the internals when bent when they were doing research
One message removed from a suspended account.
They got several burning cables, forgot which one where from who
Igor's lab supposed that it was melting because of broken solders inside the connector
but nobody managed to melt the cables by breaking the solders
At least RX 7000s shouldn't have this problem
the only way GN managed to melt the connector was by barely plugging it in
it's not something that happened a lot as well, I think only a few dozen cables melted
user error simulated lol
I wonder why manufacturers (the ones that released cards after this issue was becoming know) to the year (front end of case)?
Look at the 1080 Kingpin
Could help reduce possible bending on cables if it wasn't smushed between the glass
bending the cables wasn't really the issue though?
and that still doesn't tells me what you tried to say
because what you said doesn't means anything
its part of the issue for the melting
putting the plug at the back of the gpu won't help
if the cable isn't plugged in properly, it will melt, that's it
joining the 40 series club
Everything is nice, well except the QVO SSD I guess xD
But heck, ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR, that's expensive as heck as well
it's just for mass storage
HDDs too slow these days
and yes it was way too expensive 🙈
RAM seems a little bit out of place though... wouldn't 6000MHz+ be more suited?
But heck yeah, wouldn't blame, its a nice machine xD
might be, but ddr5 availability was really low.. had to wait weeks for that already
ahhh well, okay
Have you tried reaching some high clocks with the Ryzen? xD
Like with Cinebench?
nah. It's plenty good enough for what I do already
Would love to see that lol, I managed 5GHz with my Ryzen 7 5800X and 16k points at least
yeah, I mean I couldn't even use that much of storage xD
okay, yeah that's over double lol
my i9-10900k defaults to 5Ghz
Awesome 
Gotta see to OC a FX 8350 lol

Yeah, they put the prices up a couple weeks before so ppl think they getting a deal

I want to change my RAM memory to 16 GB, my CPU only supports 2400 MHz memory. If I use 2x8gb 2666mhz memory, will it work fine?
depends of your motherboard
in the worst case it will run at a base frequency lower than 2400MHz and you'll have to manually set it to 2400MHz, but there are high chances for your motherboard to support 2666MHz ram, so it will either automatically be set up at 2666MHz or you'll have to use a ram profile matching the specs of your new ram
what does your Mobo support? CPU limit is only the base line it will run the RAM at, X.M.P allows that to go beyond
My motherboard supports 2666MHz ram, but my CPU (i3-8100) does not. I heard that if you use XMP to increase the Mhz, the CPU dies.
It's ok with me if it only goes up to 2400mhz, I'm just worried about the chance of autostarting with 2666Mhz and damaging my CPU.
there is litteraly no way to damage your cpu by having your ram speed set too high
there is actually no such thing as having ram that is too fast from the point of view of your cpu
Ok thanks a lot for the help guys 
worst case scenario it just won't boot until you swap the RAM again
does anyone know a crappy wheel named ps2 pc power mega race 8

Hey guys,
what monitors can you recommend?
I'm currently looking for a new monitor and would like to hear your recommendations. Below a short list of the specs I'd like it to have:
Size: 26 inch to 29 inch; 27 inch preferred
Panel: IPS preferred or (O)LED
Resolution: WQHD 2560x1440
Framerate: 60; higher preferred
GTG-Reaction Time: below 5ms
FTF-Reaction Time: below 5ms
Colors: 1,07 Billion (10-Bit); HDR
Color coverage: over 99% sRGB; over 99% AdobeRGB; over 99% DCI-P3, over 99% NTSC
Brightness: 500 nits or brighter
Price: below 1000€ (incl. VAT)
Interfaces: 1 x Displayport + 1 x HDMI
Nice-To-Have, but not required: DisplayHDR certification
what are you going to use your monitor for?
and please, pick a color space, 99% sRGB and 99% AdobeRGB is absolutely not the same thing...
mostly gaming, but also watching movies
it should cover all four color spaces over 99%
alright, so, just to confirm, you are asking for a monitor that basically doesn't exists?
because what you're asking for is basically an editing monitor, and these are UHD and not QHD, and even the high end ones can't cover 99% of all these 4 color spaces
and why would you pick a 60Hz monitor if that's for gaming?
Basicly yes. I already did some research and found a dozen monitors that meet all but one of those.
The question is also open (so no specific monitors that I found during my research, to enable more input on potential recommendations)
Most games that I am playing do not offer any benefits at higher Framerates (Mostly Simulation and RTS/World Building)
the best I've seen in gaming monitors is 94% AdobeRGB

Budget version but still nice 
"budget"
and 3070
It's very silent
I am surprised
that's how my pc look like
It has two additional fans in the front
Time to rentire my old baby 
I spent like 12 hours figuring out why my card didn't give a signal, then I realised there was a second pcie adapter 
It's the eagle variant so it's a bit slower.. not cheap ofc, that's what I meant
gives me 43 fps in truckersmp
Draw distance is medium, graphic preset is everything at highest, on 1440p
Just 43? That's very low performance, unless you're in Calais 
I'm getting 120fps 90% of the time at 1440p, max detail
It goes down to 80-90 in somewhat busy areas
But you gotta say truckersmp isn't that good optimized I guess
I've got a 3060 ti tho
I'm on a 6 core CPU as well, but it's 12th gen
Other games like beamng are running between 80 and 120 fps
I had that in the eye aswell
But I wasn't sure about performance and so on xd
So I went for the 3070
Planing to keep it 5 years as like I did it with my 2070
And then I am going to switch to AIO and a faster cpu
Maybe 8-12 cores
It was 100€ cheaper than a decent 3070, it's 10% slower so not really worth it imo
Guess I was just too stubborn
I mean I found some at 460 euros
Paid 520 for the 3070
Prices went down I guess, I paid 540 for my card

That eagle 3070 was 580 I think
if you ask me, 540 for a 3060 is a bit pricy
sure it matters to the region and so on but
yeah
It's a Ti
oh, my bad
Standard was 450 or so
I even looked at a 3070 ti
But the power consumption
h
In my last session, my 3070 used like 205 watts
My 3060Ti usually sits at 160w
Dam
guess this was the lowest watt usage gpu I ever had
xd
It somehow has a very intime relationship with dust
It was very emotional and hard for me
But after a long time of thinking, I became friends with the ugly green 
Which motherboard is this model?
Might be the 2nd 16x Slot is only 8x, that's why you're not getting full performance
Since normally the top one should work

my games are recently tabbing out on its own and idk how to fix that
great choice
It somehow looks like it's slightly bent, or am I just seeing stuff again? 
ye slightly curved
well, I got my backup PC back
after deployment lol
Weird seeing similar towers
Hmm, I'd send it back if it's bent over.
Odd that its working tho. Expected major cracks
nah nah xD It isn't a RMA issue, monitors can be that way since curved monitors are their own types

I deffo missed there something 😅

yeah, it's a thing nowadays...
most curved monitors are like that because they're VA panels with crappy viewing angles, though
you don't need that, unless it's an ultrawide monitor
depends, they're not really VA panels
that's not the selling argument atleast, many of them are OLED
at least 90% of these are VA panels, and OLED monitors are still extremely rare, curved or not...
Hmm well, nowadays though its also TN or IPS, but ye ur right
Well, 404 thermal compound nonexistent
TN panels are getting rarer (and it's better like that because they're not great apart for very high refresh rates...). Curved IPS panels are great, but you'll mostly find these in ultrawide higher end monitors
that ryzen looks like it has been a little hot lately 
Well, if you can call it Ryzen atleast
AMD Athlon 64 X2 xD
Brought up another old prebuilt for restoration.
ah yeah, older AMD cpus have that kind of mounting mechanism as well 😅
Yeah good thing TN get's obsolete, they are a pain when their older since they tend to be pretty dark & non-acurate in terms of colors (like less than they already are)
Well, the newer ones don't have that clip anymore, that's what elder AMD CPUs before Ryzen like up to FX have. On AM4 that thing has changed, which is a good thing.
Like, even the stock cooler doesn't have the "ram the screwdriver into your motherboard clip" to attach the cooler anymore, a good thing to do
I have the S20 Ultra and for the last 2 years I have never used the edge panel
the only time I have is when I quickly needed a compass or a level measure
anyone know why some apps looking like this when not focused?
thought it might be application error but the problem is on TMP launcher also
Christmas theme
Very nice
you mean graphics driver right 
No thanks lol

I didn't try it yet, but if it didn't work, I'm gonna try install an older version
I've turned off the auto scaling....but the cleartype makes me thinking about it
worth checking
Welp, 2000 vs 2007
True
Ye, just wanted to create a vid with those, but I'll have to wait until I'm sounding fine again lol
next one will be the Medion mashup, one Medion from 1999 & one from 2013

well, it is indeed dumb to be bound by this stupid Oculus software, but it did infact work. Even with older games.
Installed Oculus Software, connected my old ass Oculus Rift DK2, and it worked. Mileage may vary of course, but even with that old of VR glasses, it still worked.

Copying partitions, twice
new Setup 😄 after 10 years of gaming with an old 4 core laptop finally something
Nice!
thanks
I need to figure my setup out
why`?
Because my screen is a bit overkill and id rather have multiple smaller ones 
maybe two 27´´ under it would be dope but looks very nice atm
Yeah i was thinking that size maybe 2 or 3 because desk is quite long
And thanks 🙂
This is my pc now 🙂 i went overkill with rgb too XD
Only thing thats triggering is that i just cant find a white gpu that is not a rip off
wow clean af
Ty 
wait a sec
Apart from gpu XD

Aparently you can spray paint gpu but im really not sure if its a good idea
Even my psu is rgb soul 
It shines through the vents in the bottom of case and onto desk 
Niceee 
cable management is whack but yeah kinda like it
I was looking at lian li case but they didnt have the one i wanted in stock anywhere here
Such clean cases
yeah was hard to get it other case would have been a corsair
Yeah thats why i went corsair 
the xl and its almost too small for the gpu
wait a sec lemme see the order confirmation
Okay ty
So difficult to judge size from pictures and the pictures i saw didnt have pc componants in so i couldnt judge the size properly
ahh geez my fault its the basic
Ahh okay
thougt it was the bigger one
Did you see the new corsair strip lighting?
no
They do diffused strips now so you dont get the led spots you get a glow of light
oh what...thats nice
Yeah it looks extremely clean
I think plinky has them
@kind sapphire you have the new corsair strips right?
just looked after them on google damn these are sexy
yeah and i think they arent that expensive for the looks they can give
Gah seeing your lian li makes me want to get one now
🤦♂️
Brb while i see if there is stock near me
damn better deleting the pic rn 😄
jesus wtf
Yeah thats crazy
but i got my gpu that way ....checked the prize for 4 weeks then it dropped 300€ and i got it for like 1400 :p
damn pcs are gonna be more and more expensive
I found some for stock €215
ok
Much better price 
so 215 gone ? xd

Next friday i think yes 
nice
I been wanting that one for such long time and always it was out of stock so

You like f1? That is why red lights?
yes its my favourite sport
used to go to the german races but they arent a thing anymore

If you run the rgb cables as white it doesnt always look right

hmm
I'm thinking for a new case, but I don't know what to buy
got another system now with a Z87 Extreme4, and I wanna give it a nice look
The corsair 4000D can barely fit a 6900 xt
already have Antec, DeepCool, Lian Li & Sharkoon here, but I wanna have something new... is the Fractal Design Focus G good?
Even gonna think of getting a special color, just that I don't have only black towers here.
I would buy a case that can fit the largest current gpu and go from there
well xD I wouldn't consider doing that, since 4th Gen is not a good combo way up to RTX 3000 series
might put RTX 2000 in there, but just barely maybe
If you want a with lots of room i would go with a corsair 7000D i believe is the newest one
Not everyone wants newest most expensive jeep
ahhh heck that's expensive
Yes theres no need for such big expensive thing if you dont need it
The red color looks nice destroyer 
I have a feeling gpu's are only gonna get longer and fatter
well, I have multiple GPUs I can put into that machine, they all are going to fit in there
I mean. Im still using rtx2060. Not everyone wants to get biggest stupid price gpu 
One message removed from a suspended account.
got a Colorful RTX 2070, PNY GTX 970, MSI GTX 970 or a Gigabyte R9 390 to choose
but yeah, the red sure does look really cool
3k for a gpu when you can get a porsche boxter for 3.2k

Even Matt's case is in my eye, but I can't figure out the name of it
one year later, and you want the joj even more than the first time, right?
This is part 2 of "The QUEST For The ULTIMATE Windows 98 PC". Watch part 1 here: https://youtu.be/0Vsj5OPjsUA
You may notice at 19:23, the system information dialog says "Windows Me" instead of "Windows 98". Rest assured, it's still 98 (the version number 4.10.2222 A is...
Looks clean

and this is where I saw the red case, which looks gorgeous even with older hardware

True
I have some sweet LGA 775/LGA 1155 Boards still here, which would also fit into there
Nice then 
I used to have one, it does the job well enough (good airflow, dust filters, even has 5,5in expansion bays...), but it's really cheaply built
anyone getting problem with EA app?
I can't launch most wanted with the new EA app 
realised the game was "suspended" but idk what causes it
Some progress for the rc truck, mockup of the electrics the board that will power it is not working yet as it needs programming etc but hopefully in a month or two we can paint and then it should be finished fairly soon

Those reverse lights so so bright 
yes haha
i wonder how bright the trailer ones will be
as i dont have that led print as it was sold out so its on backorder
may still order some bits so may just order worklights for trailer then as extras
Ahh thats shame they sold out 😦
im just waiting on them to be delivered

thanks
as more stuff progresses ill post more of it
What truck will it be?
scania

Wow
P?
No
- Good case with good airflow
- Some fans, intaking cold air and exhausting hot air
- De-dust your pc now and again to get rid of any unnecessary dust build up
- Clean your GPU and re-paste now and again
- Make sure the GPU fans are running at an appropriate speed.. use MSI Afterburner to edit fan speeds
- Test GPU on GPU stressors now and again to make sure it’s running smoothly
@young cove
Sir,
Your GPU shroud seems to be falling off your GPU
No its for airflow
…
I very much doubt that, you have a blower styled GPU.. if the shroud is off then the hot air will just circulate back into the graphics cards fans
Also I would recommend upgrading your graphics card if you get the chance
Repaste, retape, dust
A HD 5770 isn’t really able to play any games
Still.. something like a GTX 1050ti / GTX 960/970 could be a worthy upgrade
And they don’t cost much used
chores
Save up Christmas / birthday money
See if you can get a local job
There’s plenty ways to earn money 
Just don’t do online surveys
I dont have jobs here
I dont get money for birthday
I dont get money on christmas
I dont get payed for chores
Not for me atleast
What do you have
I have pc
I have clothes
Food
Phone
Everything needed to live
Phone isnt nescesary
Neither is pc but yes
Whats that
GTX 1050ti is a graphics card
No im on budget
That wouldn’t require you to get a new power supply
I have 400w
That’s fine
Right now in pc
I need psu cus gpu need 2 wire thingys into it
Has 2 socket
Dad got it for 20 eur anyway

Hey guys i have a question. if there is a way to check win. 11 compatibility with a PC that I haven't bought yet (refurbished)

but basically, if the computer is from 2017 or earlier, windows 11 won't be officially supported
