Turn each screw 1 turn, 1 screw at a time, until the springs prevent any further turning

graceful burrow
#

Buy new pc

young rose
#

i just installed new parts and its causing this i got a 6650xt and ryzen 5 5500

graceful burrow
#

Turn down all the settings ez

young rose
graceful burrow
#

At what res

young rose
#

1080p

#

my clock speed on the amd app thing is so low

graceful burrow
#

Cause the 6650xt definitely has the oomph to play fortnite at 60fps lmao

young rose
#

i played at 120 with 1650 super before

#

it runs every other game fine its just fortnite

river dune
#

fortnite runs bad at amd cards on direct x11 amd performance mode

#

try to play 12

young rose
#

im on 12

Yeah you should be getting much higher

#

What resolution

Is ur cpu maxed out?

lyric sphinx
#

Well it's not labor intensive

split swift
#

What is the thermals

lyric sphinx
#

Isn't 1080p heavily CPU based

split swift
#

With a 5500 and a 6650xt, its fine but yeah

young rose
#

my cpu is at 40%

young rose
lyric sphinx
#

Do you have onboard graphics

split swift
lyric sphinx
#

If so disable them it might just not be enough to stress the gou

split swift
#

Am4 does not have onboard graphics unless it's a G variation

lyric sphinx
#

So it is using the gpu

young rose
#

cpu at 77 and gpu at 50

split swift
lyric sphinx
#

I think you are just making a problem that does not exist

#

Just crank the settings up

young rose
#

well im getting 3 fps so it does i just dont know whats wrong

split swift
#

@young rose reinstall gpu drivers and fortnite, make sure windows is 100% updated, reset pc

young rose
split swift
#

WAIT

lyric sphinx
#

Well you should be able to with that setuy

@young rose u bet you have raytracing on

#

@young rose you didn't press apply in the pic

young rose
#

cuz i was messing with the resolution to try changing it to 1440p so it would use more gpu

So it would use more GPU...

young rose

so is my cpu temp the problem

lyric sphinx
#

Probably shut down like the 15 things you have working on the background to start

split swift

Possibly

lyric sphinx
#

Using the amd app for temp

split swift
#

The?

young rose
#

how do i fix my cpu temp

vapid smelt
# young rose ok

Is xmp enabled, is your ram in dual channel, is pbo enable for your CPU, is your GPU in the top slot, is sam enable for your GPU. All this is stuff for #1027757333117415424 too so I will stop

Um guys ik this is completely of topic but I don't know where to go, does anyone have any advice on if your being threatened by a scammer, saying they'll sound out "sensitive photos to my followers"

fossil frost
#

they dont have those photos, so ignore them

sacred bramble
#

They do

#

They've sent me proof

fossil frost
#

also ignore them, probably report to the police depending on if your country cares about this sort of thing

sacred bramble
#

My dilemma is if they'll actually follow through or if it really matters in the grand scheme of things

fossil frost
#

they are gonna do 1 of these things. 1. you dont pay, they dont release them. 2. you dont pay, they do release them. 3. you do pay, they release them anyway. 4. you do pay, they dont release them. 5. you do pay, they recognise you as someone who does pay, and they continue squeezing you for more and more money until you dont pay, and they release them anyway

sacred bramble
#

Honestly if I'm willing to share it with strangers online it's not better than if I just posted it myself

fossil frost
#

tbh, the only way to make sure your "sensitive" photos dont get hacked/leaked/shared with people you dont want them to be shared with, is dont take the photos in the first place... with how tech works now, if you take a photo, or video, there is a risk of someone else other than you getting control over it

Anyways thanks for the tips guys (no pun intended) really helped my anxiety

wise tundra
#

Have I understood this correctly, if I install two DIMMs in one channel, it doubles the amount of ranks in that channel, right?

wise tundra
#

So with that logic if I have a dual socket system I can install 2x16GB DIMMs one in each channel for one CPU and 4x8GB DIMMs two in each channel for the other CPU. That way I have the same amount of memory and same amount of channels in use with both CPUs

#

I would have a third channel but I don't think I can make it work with the DIMMs I have

fossil frost
#

effectively, yes. its not as "clean" and depending on the motherboard, ram, and CPUs, may not be as stable as going 2 lots of 2x16 or 2 lots of 4x8... but thats generally only gonna be if you crank the speeds/timings on that ram, if you stick to what is within spec, its going to be unnoticeable

wise tundra
#

I'm not going to overclock anything, I'll just use the defaults

#

Also all the DIMMs are the same speed

fossil frost
#

then its likely to be fine, anything using it shouldnt notice

wise tundra
#

Nice

#

Thanks

#

Currently running the system in single channel mode with 1x16GB DIMM per CPU

fossil frost
#

also, ive done things you actually shouldnt do, and its been fine... the "dont mix ram" stuff is generally only true if you mix wildly different speeds/latency/capacity. in general, mixing stuff that is close, is fine

wise tundra
#

When I have money I'll order the correct DIMMs to populate all the channels

fossil frost
manic torrent
#

Unless it's a vintage BP5 😄

#

Fuck yeah dual Celeron 300A at 450mhz

wise tundra
#

Well I read this in the manual:

In a dual-processor configuration, the memory configuration for each processor must be identical. For example, if you populate socket A1 for processor 1, then populate socket B1 for processor 2, and so on.
And I was wondering if this only applys to channels or also ranks

vestal flax
wise tundra
#

We upgraded a work server and I definitely didn't take the old RAM to use in my personal machine until I have ordered the correct DIMMs

#

We had mixed RAM in it but we replaced the smaller DIMMs with larger ones so now all the DIMMs are the same size

When a Cisco router went EOL my boss gave it to me

#

It was an amazing router but as it was designed to be used in a rack, it got hot af just sitting on a desk

So I switched to an ARM SBC as my router

# split swift Linux isn't bad, its just not a gaming OS bc of gpu drivers not being supported ...

AMD makes the amd drivers for linux, nvidia have moved a lot of their closed source stuff to usermode or the firmware, and the majority of the kernel mode driver is open source and maintainable by a larger community now... so there is definitely gpu support. ive struggled to find any steam games that dont at least run "ok" on proton, but most run well enough to not be noticeable... intel have just announced battlemage too, which they say is coming with a full linux driver

hi

#

can someone help me i have a weird bug with my controller

fossil frost
#

the thing that bothers me about a lot of games is that they are built in unity or unreal... and building them for linux instead of windows, is usually changing a dropdown box, and it "just works" (mostly, but not always)... not actively supporting linux is a choice by the developer or the publisher

humble grove
#

can someone help me i have a weird "stick drift" bug thing on my controller

Wired or wireless controllers?

i think its because the guy that repaired my pc a while ago fucked up something

#

like i talked to another guy on another tech server and he told me one of the things in my pc was called "please change product name" and now my nvidia and msi apps dont work correctly

fossil frost
#

stick drift is a hardware problem with the controller, or, a calibration problem in the software, someone repairing your pc isnt going to cause either of those

i cant even regulate the speed of my vents nor do anything with nvidia apps

and i really dont wanna pay him again 100€ to fix this

Small thought experiment for y'all. You have a PC, but it's running slow. So you replace the CPU, but after a while it runs slow again, so you replace the GPU, but now your PSU isn't enough to power it so you upgrade that. So on and so forth until you've upgraded every part of that PC. Is it still the same computer?

i have a thinkpad, i have two actually... very very good laptops

i wanna get my hands on a T400 or a t410 at some point

fossil frost

Lenovo Thinkpad P16 Gen 2, and Lenovo Thinkpad T15g Gen 2, both from work

it’s insanely expensive even if you buy it used

i got a t14 gen 1 and a cursed T450

fossil frost

both of these were about 4 grand GBP each.,.. but i didnt pay, work did 😄

Does one of them have a low power ips panel?

fossil frost
#

not sure.. i think ive only ever looked at the screen twice 😄 they are both tucked down the side of my desk, each hooked up to a dock, which its self is passed through a KVM

#

they use my 3x monitor setup

crystal pike
#

But still WHY

#

its a thinkpad youre supposed to enjoy it

fossil frost
#

because work wont let me use my home machine for work, i have to use their machine, but i can use the rest of my setup, 3x monitor, at my desk at home

crystal pike

if i was instead, forced to use a single, small screen, i would just throw them in the bin, and install my work setup inside a VM on my home machine, and fake the hardware ID so they didnt know 😄

Glass fiber (or glass fibre) is a material consisting of numerous extremely fine fibers of glass.
Glassmakers throughout history have experimented with glass fibers, but mass manufacture of glass fiber was only made possible with the invention of finer machine tooling. In 1893, Edward Drummond Libbey exhibited a dress at the World's Columbian Ex...

What’s a good oled monitor

Something really needs to be done about ads for antivirus and cleaning app ads, especially on phones. My elderly mother has been scared to death multiple times after seeing am ad on Facebook saying 'your phone is infected with Malware' or 'Your phone is running slow and needs cleaning'. Turned out she had downloaded and subscribed to like 5 or 6 different apps which I then had to help her cancel.

She thought the ads were legit alerts. Thinking of writing to my MP and the Advertising authority. It's so damn scummy and can only imagine the amount of money being harvested from older people like this.
