[astral sphinx]

Hey everyone. I’m trying to update the microcode on an old asus motherboard and I can’t do it. Can someone help? I’ve made a post on tech-support for this.

[tidal glade]

There is a lot of corrosion on that board, flakiness could be a result of a trace inside of the pcb being shot. If I had to make a guess, the increased power demand for higher core count parts is leading to an intermittent fault which doesn’t present with the celeron in the socket

TLDR; your board was damp for a long time and now there’s something messed up

[astral sphinx]

Yeah I’ve figured the exact same thing! The motherboard may be cooked. I’ve got it from ewaste and it already had a core i3 on it but it wouldn’t post. But it works with the Celeron… should I just try cleaning it?

[shell island]

I think carjacking is fun

[tidal glade]

You could try with a hypersonic cleaner if you have one

Either that or a bath in iso

Wouldn’t bother, check the thread

[topaz estuary]

I’m not trying to make an argument, but console is just so much more affordable in the long run. I get it you can build a pc for less than a console and get better performance, but that performance won’t last 2 years especially when game optimization sucks now, and you have to deal with all of these errors because half the time technology doesn’t work, drivers need updates, screen tearing all over the display and just so much more

[craggy wing]

We do car hacking at work almost everyday.

Lol car jacking, sounds awkward.

[topaz estuary]

I think PC’s negatives outweigh the positives like modding and more freedom with settings

[astral sphinx]

But there’s also emulation and 🏴‍☠️ (which I don’t condone if the fbi is watching)

i wonder what discord's justification is for "1 blocked message - Show", instead of just not showing the messages like other platforms.. and honestly, seeing "1 blocked message - Show" is far more irritating than seeing stupid/ignorant/crybaby type messages that your brain can just filter out, or, in some peoples case, instead of seeing actual real rebuttles to their brain dead takes

[tiny halo]

Maybe because the user spams you with inappropriate stuf that you don’t want to see, ignore should be unblocked

[fossil frost]

you said a bad word according to the warship... and... blocking that, would still have it show up as "1 blocked message" or "2 blocked messages"... instead of just not showing anything at all

[tiny halo]

Yeah…

[fossil frost]

i dont get why they just show nothing at all, dont show the messages at all from users you block, dont show that someone has posted anything

if anything, showing "1 blocked message - Show" increases the likelyhood that you WILL see things you dont want to see, because it would then make someone curious as to what is being said, and "show", now you are specifically reading that message... instead of it just not being shown to you at all

look at orders placed on the MS website under your account, and it filters to past 3 months by default, you hace to take it back to the all time option and then you can install it from there

Anyways, I just thought I would put it out there incase anyone else agrees that this would be somewhat funny and wants to vote.

he's uninstalled the software itself (pluralinput), but the driver won't uninstall no matter how many times we've pressed uninstall and rebooted
so now we're live on air with no graphics, no replay, limited switching capabilities (we managed to get vmix open and into a show file, so we could at least go live)

Well i started making it for Windows, but then i switched to Linux. And i found it harder to develop for Linux, since Win32 api is easier. While Linux wont allow me to get cursor position even

[manic torrent]

oh boy

[grim belfry]

I've seen a few people wearing an Apple Watch on one and a Whoop on the other

[winged spire]

Whoop is either worn by people that don’t exercise or elite athletes

[old pond]

Actually it's just like Electron app. Taskbar and desktop and uses Win32 API to lunch apps

[winged spire]

I’m yet to see otherwise

[grim belfry]

No?

[manic torrent]

huh? I was talking about how easy win32 api is

[winged spire]

That’s the screen less fitness tracker huh?

[manic torrent]

and that linux is hard

[old pond]

Well Wayland doesnt allow you to know cursor position on screen for 'security' reasons. While MacOS and Windows do. So there's that example

[grim belfry]

Yes

[old pond]

Still trying to figure out the cursor position.

OBS Studio has some solution, by using Pipewire, but even that is not accurate on Gnome it appears. It takes initial cursor and listens to /dev/input events to calculate mouse pos

[manic torrent]

No, because it's a function of your compositor

[grim belfry]

Holy jank

[old pond]

Well. Isnt linux about being customizable ? I want to know cursor position for God sake

[manic torrent]

"man my video card API doesn't even show me my position in the game"

Ok. The compozitor that uses Wayland doesnt give me cursor position

Question anyone i have a i7 7700 non k and wanna upgrade my gpu whats the highest i could go to to not have bad bottleneck

[rare otter]

Just curious

[open jungle]

good morning everybody

[manic torrent]

The question is nonsensical unless you will never ever upgrade your CPU, and you only play specific games.

[spice sand]

If it includes all the cables that the power supply advertises and the ones you need arent included, return it get a different one, PEBCAK

If it is missing some cables that it’s supposed to have, return it

[fossil frost]

you dont understand what "bottleneck means" because you havnt said what your use case is for your machine

[young frost]

I use it for gaming

[fossil frost]

what games, what resolution, what type of quality settings are you expecting?

[young frost]

I will be upgrading my cpu idk when but i have a gtx 980 rn and wanna play newer titles

[young frost]

At least high or medium depending on game preferably 1440p

[fossil frost]

7700xt or similar from nvidia will be fine. my son uses an i7 7700k with an amd 6600xt on 1080p and it plays fine for most titles

[young frost]

Thank you for your help

[tiny halo]

Haha

[silk ridge]

If dinosaurs were still here, wouldn’t we be small for them to eat? Would shrinking or appearing small save us?

[rare otter]

I bought it without powercables as aan attempt to save money cause I thought I could use the ones from my cx450

[fossil frost]

birds are small, and big, their ancestors were too

[rare otter]

Turns out the cx450 isn't modual

[fossil frost]

you cant assume that power cables on a modular PSU are the same within the same series, or even within the same model manufactured at different factories... nevermind different series or different manufacturers

[rare otter]

That's why I'm asking for help cause I just learned that

[fossil frost]

your BEST bet, buy directly from corsair https://www.corsair.com/uk/en/p/pc-components-accessories/cp-8920202/sf-series-premium-individually-sleeved-psu-cable-kit-black-cp-8920202

if you are in the USA or canada, cablemod SHOULD do compatible cables for your particular psu

[rare otter]

Ok

[oak pier]

there’s several other brands that will do custom cables as well

for cheaper at that

[rare otter]

34.99 for some cables???

It's not even actual components

[fossil frost]

or, make your own, making your own will cost considerably more than that

a cable IS a component..

[oak pier]

i’m personally a big fan of dreambigbyray

[rare otter]

I meant like

How do I say this

Like a part like cpu,ram,motherboard,gpu,
Sdd/hdd

[fossil frost]

can you move electricity from your PSU, to the rest of your system without them?

your system wont work without them, so they are a component part of the system

[rare otter]

My current one is a cx450

[oak pier]

overly pedantic, you get their meaning

[rare otter]

I can't remove the cabl3s from.it

[oak pier]

oh then just get cable extensions if you really want the look

much cheaper and standardized

[fossil frost]

you cheaped out and bought a modular psu, without the cables, to "save money", this is the result of "saving money"... turns out, nothing is free 🙂

[oak pier]

it’s a non-modular psu

[fossil frost]

the metal, rubber, and the plastic that makes up those cables, cost money, and metal costs a LOT of money these days, those cables might have cost half that 3 years ago

[fossil frost]

their new PSU is modular

[oak pier]

ah they’re upgrading from the cx450

[oak pier]

eh cablemod is overpriced

there’s plenty of people that do a better job for less

[fossil frost]

i dont care, they asked where to get cables from, i gave them an example of where they could get them from, and im not american, so i dont know the entire cable landscape of the USA

[rare otter]

I made a mistake lmao.
Shit happens

[fossil frost]

yep 😄

[oak pier]

cablester and v-amp customs will both do better for cheaper

[rare otter]

Bought a nvidia titan x maxwell for a really good price tho

[oak pier]

v-amp customs being US based

[rare otter]

25$

[oak pier]

you’re probably better off just buying the kit of cables from corsair though

and take it as a lesson learned

[rare otter]

Yeah lmao. Never buying a psu without cables again

[oak pier]

the PSU is one of the last things you want to cheap out on

cheaping out on most things just means potentially poor performance, cheaping out on the PSU could burn your house down (slight hyperbole)

[rare otter]

I know it's a real psu

I just bought it used

[oak pier]

what happened between the other person getting it and it ending up in your hands is unknown though

[fossil frost]

yeah, why are they 1. selling it. 2. selling it without cables

[oak pier]

yeah it’s quite odd to sell it without cables

the cables are basically useless without the accompanying PSU, especially given basically any PSU you buy new will include its own cables

[rare otter]

Yeah

Lesson learned.

But that nvidia titan x I got for 25$ is nuts

I had a friend test it out for me and he told me that it works like a charm

I just gotta get me a new psu for it

[bright zenith]

Hallo hallo how you all doing

[bright zenith]

Isn’t the Titan X gtx 900 series? I mean it should be fine for 1080p or 1440p low settings

[fossil frost]

So I was curious as to if this was just cause of my region or?

The poor performance that they were getting on the $69 PC doesn't seem right. The 570 is a more powerful GPU than what's inside the Steam Deck, or on par with the Ally.

So it should be at least capable of doing anything those can do

negotiating on price is entirely dependant on the region you live... in the uk, its rare, very rare.. but when i went to egypt or dubai, its expected

its also highly dependant on the product or service you are buying too

I know in the UK, some people expect to haggle and some people get really offended when you do (For FB Marketplace PCs and stuff)

[fossil frost]

its expected on 2nd hand stuff, but not on new stuff.. if you have already listed it as your lowest of low prices, you always put "no offers" in the title of any 2nd and listing

i always haggle on 2nd hand stuff.. my dad has made a career out of it (buys broken cars cheap, fixes them, sells them for much more than what he paid for them)

[winged spire]

You’d be surprised how many people tried to haggle on our geeksquad services

Like lmao lady no we don’t haggle here

They’d watch me open the binder, look at the price then tell them it, and still expect to be able to negotiate

[fossil frost]

"do you think i own this place? or have any sort of decision making authority? pay the price or go away" 😄

[sage quiver]

gotta haggle the bank when you deposit a check

[winged spire]

Gimme an extra 10 🌚

[fossil frost]

the bank fucking does... i cant though 😄

[sage quiver]

Ha, too true

[winged spire]

You seen the guy that edited a contract and the bank accepted it

[fossil frost]

"ohhh... a £200... we are taking £20 of that as a 'fee' for processing it... automatically... with a computer, which costs us nothing compared to what we make"

[winged spire]

They just automatically accepted it and he now has like no fees or something

🔥🔥🔥🔥

my favourite guy is the one who got 4 different remote working jobs, and then outsourced them all to various different outsourcing companies in india.. took the salary from each, and then paid about 15% of that salary to the companies he hired... all work, all done... but the companies went batshit about it... because they were "getting ripped off"...

they were not getting ripped off, they were paying for a job to get done, and it got done, they were just unhappy that he thought of something that they didnt 😄

[winged spire]

The best part is when they do like government and/or patented things.

Then outsource that to India

[fossil frost]

place i work for outsources to romania because of that, we do stuff that requires security clearance, and romania's security clearance is compatible with UK and norway (where my place is based), but india isnt

[winged spire]

India is very similar to China when it comes to privileged information

In the fact that it doesn’t exist

It’s all fair game

[crude vortex]

y'all are talking about india...without me😈

[gaunt girder]

Technically, in some countries in Europe - it's 00:04.

[fossil frost]

[echo sluice]

[echo sluice]

[fossil frost]

ive just googled it also, evening of feb the 28th to 30th of march

[echo sluice]

[fossil frost]

depends on where you live apparently, because of where the moon is and how visible it is

some places it starts on the 28th, some it starts on the 1st

[echo sluice]

awesome, new knowledge acquired

[gaunt girder]

You Bulgarian or Croatian? :0

i would say thats an odd way to define when a religious holiday starts... but easter is "soon".. (at some point in march or april)... and that has similarly messy rules

[fossil frost]

the exact point in the middle of the winter solstice and the summer solstice (summer is the longest day of the year, winter is the shortest day of the year)

[echo sluice]

they added some new laws today which are breaking the dayton agreement i think

[echo sluice]

oh

[fossil frost]

tbh, the uk needs more laws to make it easier to send law breaking politicians to jail

[echo sluice]

The National Assembly of Republika Srpska has just adopted the Law on the Non-Application of Laws and the Prohibition of the Activities of Certain Institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina on the Territory of this Entity. This law prohibits the operation of key judicial and security institutions of BiH, including the Court of BiH, the Prosecutor's Office of BiH, the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council (HJPC), and the State Investigation and Protection Agency (SIPA), on the territory of Republika Srpska.

Can I do this with all the other things connected?

[clever tinsel]

ummm

[lament prawn]

9070XT is 599

[vapid smelt]

damn 599 Russian rubles

[lament prawn]

USD

well, its 4999 CNY

do your own math, note it includes tax

consider the ratio for 5070Ti, 6299 - > 749

9070 is 4499 CNY

so I assume it would be 499 to 549

[vapid smelt]

then why did you say it was 599

[lament prawn]

because it is?
