[untold scarab]

buy a warranty

[random gyro]

Work after school is not for the weak holy shit

[whole gulch]

because the headset is good and i thought it was something i was doing the first 2 times

[latent pasture]

its 240mm radiator on front and 3 120mm fans on top

it can fit 360 of fans but not with rad idk why

[untold scarab]

whats the difference between 7 slot and 5 slot

[latent pasture]

the slots at the back

[untold scarab]

sorry im stupid

it doesnt make a difference when im mounting an atx motherboard anyway

[untold scarab]

the ones i said are great, if you know youre breaking them get a warranty

[latent pasture]

no

[untold scarab]

so IF i go for a radiator what would the best mounting position for it be

lets say if i were to fill out every possible fan hole

[latent pasture]

7 slot mode needs rad at front
cuz if its on top, u need to install the mobo lower to fit radiator so u can only use 5 out of the 7 slots for stuff

[untold scarab]

what if i were to mount it on the side

a 240mm radiator

[latent pasture]

front side or bottom work yes
basically not top

having the rad at top means 5 slot
the rest 7

not like it matters. r u gonna install 7 slots of stuff?

[untold scarab]

lol no

[latent pasture]

the gpu alr takes 2-4 depending on model
i assume the mobo has its built in wifi
so ud need to buy some addin card of some sort to fill even 5

[untold scarab]

its a fe 3080

[harsh rose]

Anyone know what this sound coming from psu can mean? Started doing this just when I changed my motherboard

[untold scarab]

im using ethernet but for college wifi is a need

[latent pasture]

thats on the motherboard built in

[untold scarab]

yeah ik

[untold scarab]

so is there an issue

if so can u explain it to me I want to learn

[latent pasture]

theres no issue other than i dont like recommending expensive stuff lol

[untold scarab]

lol fair play

so if I mounted it on the side that would be as viable as the front?

[latent pasture]

WAIT NO

arctic lf3 is 63mm thick and it says 59mm limit

[untold scarab]

I was wondering if it was ideal

[latent pasture]

so if u do go with lf3 u have to front
unless u buy different brand aio

[untold scarab]

okay i appreciate that

that was a cool catch

[latent pasture]

yeah arctic aios r thicker than most others
most other brands r in the 54 55 57mm range

[oblique hill]

Is 7,200 rpm, 281 MB/s transfer speeds fast enough for a NAS thats not intensively used, the most intense being editing GoPro footage?

[untold scarab]

what about the lianli galahad 2

[stoic nova]

4 hours of ski trip footage may involve making some coffee as it moves to and from

[latent pasture]

the latest one says 52mm

[untold scarab]

dude I kind of hate the waterblock though

[oblique hill]

Videos are about 20mins long, and I scrub through them to find fun bits

[latent pasture]

if this is a gift why not ask the giftee

[untold scarab]

giftee knows nothing about computers

[stoic nova]

you wanna edit, off the nas?

[latent pasture]

its not abt computers anyway its abt how the waterblock looks

[bronze jay]

I'm on a fresh install of Kubuntu and text readability of windows is being really weird on my second monitor. I don't think the resolution is scaling properly. They text isn't sharp like it's supposed to be.

[oblique hill]

Yes, but its not big footage.

[stoic nova]

is your nas already set up?

[untold scarab]

look this up on yt

LIAN LI - Galahad II Trinity AIO Product Video the first waterblock is nice

[bronze jay]

Pictures still look normal. It's text, specifically.

[oblique hill]

Not yet, Im currently debating what to get etc.

[untold scarab]

wait im so dumb

[latent pasture]

sad reminder that usa banned the brand with the imo best looking aio block

[untold scarab]

Galahad II Trinity 240mm All in One Liquid CPU Cooling Kit - Black
3 interchangeable looks. ARGB radiator fans that support quick-link daisy chain + connector cable for motherboard sync + connector cable for fan lighting & speed sync with water block control board. Pump motor speed goes up to 3200RPM + Newly designed copper plate + Liquid coolant pathway straightened. 45-degree tubing connector + Tubes inner diameter increased to 7mm. Supported by L Connect 3.

3 first words are key

you know any good fans that arent too expensive

all black no rgb

[bronze jay]

The Trump Regime can cry me a river. Get it through ebay or something idk

[latent pasture]

nah this happened like mid last year

[bronze jay]

Then I'm extremely disappointed in Biden.

[little mural]

Rate my fusebox ignore the wires on the left

[oblique hill]

@stoic nova

[little mural]

I can ask u 2 questions at the same time

[oblique hill]

oh hi, sure

[little mural]

"Are you dutch"

[untold scarab]

@latent pasture what if I want an aio with fans that have no rgb

[oblique hill]

yes

[little mural]

Lel to witch one of the questions

[terse canopy]

I’m more interested in WHY a cooler was banned.

[latent pasture]

u can get those
or u can remove the fans that come with the aio and replace it with non rgb

[untold scarab]

yeah but thats extra cost

[latent pasture]

they tracked them selling stuff to russia (allegedly)

[little mural]

To being from the netherlands or ur name? XD

[untold scarab]

I just want something low profile

or maybe I just go with the artic and front mount it

rather than side mounting

[little mural]

Witch cooler we talkin about dont wanna search in the message jungle :p

[latent pasture]

im dumb is the arctic lf3 ur looking at the rgb or non rgb fvariant

u can just go with the none lmao

if the argb variant is cheaper for some reason, then u just dont plug the rgb cable in bc its separate tot he cable that spins and controls the aio

[untold scarab]

yeah thats if i front mount it, it wont fit if i side mount it

im looking at the thermals and they reccomend a front side radiator anyway

so i think the artic is the move

and then side fans to exhaust

[latent pasture]

its a 7700x lol
i alr shown earlier that even the 16 core can be cooled by a small tower cooler with its 1 fan going 50% fan speed

[latent pasture]

ok now this is a weirdge

[untold scarab]

what fans would u recommend

[latent pasture]

i almost never see anyone do exhaust for the side of these style cases

[untold scarab]

if im trying to stick to a low profile

[latent pasture]

what does low profile mean

[untold scarab]

just no rgb lol

some bequiet ones?

[latent pasture]

my internet is blocking stores rn
can u try to find if the 5pack of arctic p12 PWM PST is available

its like $30-40 for 5 of them

[untold scarab]

artic p12's are all sold out near me

[latent pasture]

ngek

[untold scarab]

actually thats not true

I can go for those

[latent pasture]

make sure its the PWM

[latent pasture]

yeah that

you can chain them all together and connect them on just 1 fan port on the motherboard

[untold scarab]

wait fuck this is annoying

wait nvm it works out perfectly

If i buy the aio should i front mount it with the fans it brings or the fans that come with my case?

ill have some extra fans but its whatever

[latent pasture]

the fans it brings
their cables r already routed through to come out on the cpu block its gonna be annoying to deal with if u rplace it

[vale wing]

does anyone have a cheap nvme 2tb ssd they could introduce me to

[latent pasture]

how many fans does the case come with free

[untold scarab]

3 too front fans 1 exhaust

also, the fans are also a gift anyway so its fine ( i have a big family)

[stoic nova]

rad side out, way better for cleaning

[latent pasture]

nvm i red that wrong

[stoic nova]

oh hes talking about replacing fans lol

I read him wrong too its ok mi3

[latent pasture]

the 2 front fans are 140mm which dont fit on the side

[untold scarab]

I can move the two front fans to the top and then have 2 120mm on side and bottom

[inland canopy]

Yall i have news

My t14 boots up and works now

[stoic nova]

whats a t14

[latent pasture]

how much did it cost

[inland canopy]

labour

[inland canopy]

lmao
t14 gen 1 thinkpad

[stoic nova]

his t14

[inland canopy]

back to the thinkpad cult

[latent pasture]

the actual good thinkpads

[inland canopy]

funnily enough thats how my t14 was few minutes ago

[latent pasture]

ppl keep recommending the new models even tho theyve turned into the same cheap slop as any other laptop brand
because the oldies were good

[stoic nova]

AWW YEA THE RED NIP

[untold scarab]

@latent pasture correct?

[inland canopy]

honestly the oldies were good in terms of build quality
Configs and atuff were bad compared to the new ones

the newer ones have better configs, so less likely youll need to get aftermarket parts like a screen, trackpad, etc

Mine for example has a low power ips, i got it with it instead of buying one off of aliexpress or ebay

[latent pasture]

seems good
y u want so much cooling tho, the free fans and aios fans r probably enough

[inland canopy]

I still remember how people attacked Alex after saying its pointless in a review of a thinkpad

[untold scarab]

cause its cool?

[stoic nova]

hes right ^ mo fans not always mo betta

[untold scarab]

double entendre 😎

[latent pasture]

140mm fans have a LOT of throughput

[inland canopy]

Dont remember which one but its old

[latent pasture]

actually wait

[heavy knot]

any reason why Helldivers 2 is using 130W of power through my 12700k? i'm getting mainly 60's, low 70's, and jumps to 80's and 90's

is that okay? should i be worried or concerned?

[azure topaz]

yep

its fine

[stoic nova]

task manager hell divers 2 is using most of your cpu util

[latent pasture]

try to find a lian li 215
2x200mm front gigafans

[stoic nova]

nothing else is above like, 10%?

[azure topaz]

you can probably give it a little undervolt but uhhh

im not helping you

[eternal cosmos]

going on a flight, should i get a xbox controller and what games can my phone play?

[azure topaz]

minecraft is an easy one

[eternal cosmos]

can i do farcry

[stoic nova]

every ps1, and older console game ever made

[azure topaz]

is far cry a mobile game

[untold scarab]

you talking to me?

[heavy knot]

HD2 takes up around 45-50% of my CPU, but it's pushing 130W+ lmaooo

ran a full scan with Windows Defender and it took 190W lol

i dont know how to undervolt anything, last thing i want to do is break something with my CPU

[azure topaz]

worst case just the os

but just dont play with it, its fine, power is basically irrelevant since you can keep it cool

[heavy knot]

true, i am thinking of putting new thermal paste on, it's been there for more than a year

[latent pasture]

and its a 12700k whats weird abt it using 130w

[azure topaz]

do you have a contact frame?

[heavy knot]

no

[azure topaz]

buy one of those and put it on when you do your thermal paste

[latent pasture]

are the temps actually bad
1year isnt very long unless ur paste is some ghetto glued sand

[heavy knot]

i have the one provided by ASUS on my motherboard. I am well aware of the contact thing that the 12-14th gens have

[junior valve]

should be 250 normally

[azure topaz]

thaTs just the stock ilm

[heavy knot]

60's to 70's when my CPU is at 45-50% usage and 130W of power. Saw jumps to 90 at most

[untold scarab]

were you talking to me here or what

[heavy knot]

250W? are you sure???

[junior valve]

yes , its a K

[azure topaz]

if its overclocked and in aan all core load sure 250w is normal

[heavy knot]

oh

[heavy knot]

i used the Noctua thermal paste

[latent pasture]

u probably arent replacing it in like forever
or 5 years or smthn

[junior valve]

what cooler is he using again?

[heavy knot]

https://www.microcenter.com/product/666446/lian-li-galahad-ii-trinity-sl-inf-360mm-all-in-one-liquid-cpu-water-cooling-kit-white

[junior valve]

put 4600 rpm fans on the rad and see

[heavy knot]

as in different fans?

because the max rpm of the lian li fans is 2100

should i be running my pump at full speed

max speed of my aio pump is 3200rpm

[bronze jay]

I scrolled through a bunch of "fun" cursors and ended up just going back to bibata original ice

It's simple and clear and catches my eye in dark mode

No idea what the hell that w is

[sinful cobalt]

i have the performance model of this

[inland canopy]

I feel like youre having lots of fun with linux

[bronze jay]

Maybe

[inland canopy]

Glad youre enjoying it

[bronze jay]

I just wish it was better for normies

I'm fine. I like it and can learn. But not everyone is willing or able.

[untold scarab]

yo guys how much could I sell a system with a b450 tomahawk max ryzen 7 5700x, nxzt kraken x63, 32gb of ddr4 ram, in a corsair 220t for

[bronze jay]

like at least 3

[inland canopy]

Yeah itll slowly turn into an addiction trust me
Im not a developer, but the versatility and incredible customization abilities of linux got me hooked (customization in terms of OS features and such things, not looks)

[bronze jay]

Maybe, maybe not. I just want windowsn't

I need help

[inland canopy]

Fair. Im forced to use windows for now
At least until i get a bigger ssd

[latent pasture]

r u gonna sell this pc to get the one uve been planning?

or is this completely separate
bc if its the former why not just buy the new case, then put the 3080 in it and its still completely fine

[bronze jay]

The text on my second monitor is fuzzy. Only the text. I think the resolution isn't scaling properly.

[robust trail]

Gimme that RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell

[bronze jay]

my main monitor is 1440p and my secondary is only 1080p. I'm using an nvidia graphics card on Kubuntu.

I'm trying to install the drivers but the .run file won't fucking do anything even though I keep clicking execute

[latent pasture]

if its forcing 1440p on 1080p then yes

its nvidia and linux thats kinda the nono

[bronze jay]

It's ONLY the text

I didn't have this problem in mint

[untold scarab]

completely separate

[bronze jay]

Not much I can do about it at this point

I just have to force it to work like everything else I put together.

[robust trail]

What’s the problem with nvidia and Linux?

[bronze jay]

Nvidia has has closed source drivers until very recently so compatiblity is more than lagging behind

[robust trail]

Two displays? One 1080 one 1440?

[bronze jay]

yes

[south arrow]

If you update correctly should be fine

[latent pasture]

i mean if mint wasnt a problem but the new os is, then this is probably the issue

[robust trail]

Are you running Wayland or X?

[bronze jay]

Images show up fine, But text is weird and pisses me off to look at

[bronze jay]

It means there's something I can do about it

[bronze jay]

What?

Kubuntu.

[robust trail]

The display manager

[bronze jay]

JUST Kubuntu

Oh.

how can I find out

[sinful cobalt]

more than $1

[robust trail]

Look for the nvidia x server settings

If you’re running X you should be able to make modifications there

[bronze jay]

I keep trying to donwload that but I cna't figure it out

I can't find the download link for nvidia x server settings

[robust trail]

There’s no download

It is installed with the driver

[bronze jay]

I can't install the driver either

I gave the file permission to run as an executable and I'm not even being prompted to give it root access

It's making me so mad

[robust trail]

What driver is it? .run or the repo?

[bronze jay]

.run

[cedar hollow]

good morning friends!

[robust trail]

chmod +x file name

[cedar hollow]

another great day hugging it out with my 5060 ES

[bronze jay]

I renamed the file. Don't know if that means anything. I was trying to follow a terminal tutorial and got stumped

[robust trail]

sudo ./filename

Install the proprietary or MIT driver

[bronze jay]

No such file or directory

[robust trail]

The name of the file not filename

[bronze jay]

What the fuck does that mean

[robust trail]

If you renamed it.. use that name

[bronze jay]

I did

[robust trail]

What’s the name of the file?

[bronze jay]

NVIDIA

[frail delta]

filename

[bronze jay]

let me try NVIDIA.run

[robust trail]

chmod +X NVIDIA

sudo ./NVIDIA

Err chmod +x NVIDIA

Sorry I’m on a phone

[bronze jay]

No such file or directory. I saw something about telling terminal to look in the folder the file is in

[robust trail]

Go download it again

[bronze jay]

What.

[robust trail]

Or get the gpl key and then install via apt

[bronze jay]

I don't know what a gpl key is

I'll start downloading it a second time

[latent pasture]

bro y r u on linux

[bronze jay]

Windows pisses me off

[robust trail]

Where did you get the driver?

[bronze jay]

Nvidia download page

[robust trail]

Download the cuda toolkit instead it is noob proof

[bronze jay]

How do I get it

I have basically no idea wtf I'm doing

[robust trail]

its fine, the driver you are running right now is nouveau

not nvidia

[bronze jay]

Well it's a piece of shit driver

[south arrow]

Everyone's first time doing something in linux like xD

[robust trail]

gimme a second. I will make it easy.

[bronze jay]

Are you trying to seduce me?

[robust trail]

No, I work for NVIDIA

[south arrow]

Lots of videos and docs to come in your future

[robust trail]

I want you to not suffer

[bronze jay]

You're going to kill me?!

[robust trail]

You're running Kbuntu? Do you know what version it is?

[bronze jay]

The new one. I just downloaded it today.

[robust trail]

What version is that, I'm not going to hold your hand and feed you ice cream

gotta help me a bit 😛

[bronze jay]

One second

24.10

[robust trail]

I just need to figure out what version of the Ubuntu driver to hand you

wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2404/x86_64/cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install cuda-toolkit-12-8

then sudo apt install cuda-drivers -y

then reboot

https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?target_os=Linux&target_arch=x86_64&Distribution=Ubuntu&target_version=24.04&target_type=deb_network

[south arrow]

Should work

[bronze jay]

is the first one a command

[robust trail]

wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2404/x86_64/cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb

[latent pasture]

im screenshotting this so in 10 years when linux gaming is a thing i can install nvidia drivers correctly

[robust trail]

Linux gaming is a thing

[latent pasture]

well, more of a thing

[bronze jay]

Steam made it a thing

[robust trail]

It is the alpha and the omega but mac gaming is better

[bronze jay]

copying and pasting commands now

[robust trail]

Depending on what that kbuntu version is a fork of... 24.04 is probably right for the ubuntu driver version

if all else fails, and until you're more familiar with linux - run ubuntu 22.04

24+ is a bit on the wonk side

[bronze jay]

wtf my console froze

I can't type in it

[south arrow]

First one gets the download package, second updates it, third grabs the kit, 4th installs drivers, reboot allows configs to take effect

[bronze jay]

I was only able to do the first command and then it prompted me for my password

[south arrow]

These will take time

[bronze jay]

No it's already asking for my password and I can't type it in

[robust trail]

Honestly? From someone who's been running and using linux for 10+ years? I would look at Ubuntu before any other distro

since Ubuntu is the base for most other client distros

[south arrow]

I used hiveOS wich is just Ubuntu under the hood

[latent pasture]

ubuntu is problem free enough that my 70yo dad on his 12yr old lenovo somelaptop can use it without complaining

[bronze jay]

I'll try restarting konsole

[robust trail]

right, they're all ubuntu under the hood unless you're running something like redhat or suse etc

[bronze jay]

God fucking damn it

[robust trail]

Linux isn't that difficult to work through once you get the hang of it. A week or so and you'll be dangerous

[bronze jay]

So I enter the first and second command, then when it asks for my password I can't type it in

[stoic nova]

Would give the gamer nobara tbh

[bronze jay]

It's like it's doing this out of spite

[latent pasture]

if u only installed kubuntu yesterday then u probably have not done much
so still opportunity to switch to a more mature ubuntu version

[robust trail]

enter one command at time

[bronze jay]

I installed it today

[robust trail]

konsole sucks

[bronze jay]

What can I use instead

[robust trail]

thats what you get with kbuntu out of the box

[stoic nova]

Gonna sound gay but Kitty

[bronze jay]

So what do I download instead of konsole

[fluid badger]

It's been running at this screen for 25 minutes without turning off. And after Windows installed and started to boot up into Windows it shut off. So I think power is definitely the culprit

[sleek ibex]

Ubuntu is perfectly fine in my experience

[bronze jay]

ohh

ok then. I'll find the deb

[stoic nova]

There we go

[bronze jay]

This is probably what keeps turning linux users trans and gay

[latent pasture]

[sleek ibex]

[south arrow]

[bronze jay]

Okay. I have kitty running

Now I'm going to try again

Dude what the FUCK.

I do the first two commands and they work. It asks for the password and I can't type it in

For the love of god

[stoic nova]

Do you need to look at the keyboard when you type

And when you look up you see blank

[bronze jay]

Only when typing in passwords

[stoic nova]

And assume you didn't type anything

[bronze jay]

huh no

I'm looking at it right now. I can't input anything

I touch-type

[stoic nova]

Press enter

Alright alright try this

[bronze jay]

No that's it

It works but it doesn't show me that I'm typing

[stoic nova]

LMFAO

[sleek ibex]

[robust trail]

wait

[stoic nova]

So glad I got to see this

[bronze jay]

It just makes it look like nothing is happening because it wants me to be angry

[stoic nova]

Yup I had a feeling

[robust trail]

you know that typing a password into a terminal doesn't show anything

right?

[stoic nova]

Man.

[bronze jay]

I swear to God it did before

[robust trail]

It will never do that

[bronze jay]

I was in mint though. That's probably why

[stoic nova]

Maybe your display manager does that. (Login screen)

[robust trail]

That's sketchy

[stoic nova]

But def not terminal

[robust trail]

anything in the terminal should not show a password

[bronze jay]

it didn't show the password it showed black dots

rather, white dots

[robust trail]

I'll never use mint now lol

[stoic nova]

They do take that beginner friendly reputation to heart

[robust trail]

yeah

[bronze jay]

I mean how the hell is anyone supposed to know that

For my entire life I type passwords and it's dots and I'm supposed to assume that this time it's not frozen

[robust trail]

welcome to an OS that doesn't care about you

[stoic nova]

I've helped a lot of people on the internet get started with Linux and this was the first time I've seen someone blindsided by the login

[sleek ibex]

How is system76's Pop OS rust DE if that's a thing?

[bronze jay]

Are you asking me?

[stoic nova]

Super fast cookin

[sleek ibex]

No just asking in general

[bronze jay]

I like the way the text and cursor look in kitty, and the black background

[stoic nova]

Cosmic desktop

[robust trail]

terminals should always have white on black text

[sleek ibex]

It's been a while since I've used Pop OS

[robust trail]

because your eyes hate black on white text

[stoic nova]

Oh my goodness

[bronze jay]

Gray looked less intimidating to me starting out

It felt like I was just editing a config file

[robust trail]

white text on black terminal is good

[bronze jay]

that's probably why

[bronze jay]

I like it better too

Okay. Restarting.

[robust trail]

red on black is better for the eyeballs

[stoic nova]

hacker immersion

pywal your colorscheme

[bronze jay]

Okay, I finished restarting, boyo

[stoic nova]

takes me longer to restart discord

that was fast

[bronze jay]

I have a stupid overkill SSD that nobody needs

It was 100 off

I even had time to type my password wrong and for discord to fail to connect on the first try

[weak osprey]

Naturally

[bronze jay]

Can I make my terminal have a color scheme for spacing like in some config files?

I mean actually

[stoic nova]

you want my kitty config?

[bronze jay]

it's one line at a time so that's stupid

I want to make my own

[stoic nova]

my friend the art of split screen text editor and wiki/documentation is the way

[minor charm]

Can some1 help me with NVME SSDS

[weak osprey]

Yes

[bronze jay]

I don't see myself wanting to switch off of Kubuntu but people tell me that after a while I'll want to use Arch

[weak osprey]

Please

[minor charm]

My Asus prime b760m Mainboard don't like any of my nvme SSD on slot 1

Extremely slow write speeds

[stoic nova]

kitty itself doesnt do much but....sure. https://github.com/ls-wdiff/diffydots/blob/main/config/kitty/kitty.conf

[bronze jay]

Why does it matter, use slot 2

[stoic nova]

zshrc is where the sauce is

[minor charm]

What

[bronze jay]

Is that a better console?

Kitty looks fine to me idk what more you'd want

[minor charm]

Why you want me to half the NVME speed with the second slot ?

[bronze jay]

What??

I thought you were talking about SATA

[stoic nova]

so theres 2 elements to what you see, the window, is the terminal emulator, thats kitty

bash, is the text. your shell.

[minor charm]

Nah NVME

[bronze jay]

Am I reducing my speed by using the lower m.2 slot?

[minor charm]

My board does cuz it's gen 3

And slot one gen 4

[bronze jay]

Mine is gen 4

Oh, so you're reducing speed because it has a gen 3 and gen 4 slot

[minor charm]

The rather question is why my slot one don't work

[flint badger]

What gou does this look like?

Gpu*

[bronze jay]

But I'm still fine, right?

[minor charm]

No one here with some clue ?

[bronze jay]

I wish I could help.

Try asking microsoft copilot

[minor charm]

Steelsrries headset:)

[bronze jay]

I'm serious, works well

I use it sometimes

[flint badger]

Where lol

[minor charm]

Ain't that just a other ai

[flint badger]

What's the issue

[latent pasture]

what r u testing with
some benchmark app like crystaldiskmark?
and what ssd is it

[bronze jay]

it's like gpt-4 but free

[stoic nova]

they can smell it

[bronze jay]

(apparently)

[bronze jay]

I've had nothing but positive experiences with copilot

[flint badger]

Oh lol idk not my rig

[bronze jay]

Even though it's secretly harvesting my organs when I'm not looking

[flint badger]

But ya he's got that little thing too

[minor charm]

Yes and Samsung magician aswell lexar dash
SSD is lexar eq760
MSI spatium m481

Both new

[cunning escarp]

umm so like there is a very high chance i cant get a pc so is this laptop a good replacement?

[minor charm]

I have build 2 pcs today and both don't like any of my ssds

[latent pasture]

yes
what the price of other 4050 laptops compared to this one? or 3060 too performs abt the same but might get discount bc its older

[minor charm]

Hella weird

[latent pasture]

i cant find eq760 is one of the characters i typo
bc there is nq790 and there is nm760

Q means QLC, which has very poor writes once u run out the slc cache which could explain it

[minor charm]

One has R 5600 and 4070 with board MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus

Maybe Europe it's EQ?

But even then, it can't be just 71

It's like 1-3% Write speed

[latent pasture]

is it nearly full?

[minor charm]

Not even half

[latent pasture]

hmmm

[minor charm]

The weird thing is

Slot 2 I get normal results for gen 3 atleast

Even updated the FK BIOS

On my second PC, intel I7 1470K and 6600 Eagle, with Asus prime B760M, it don't even boot with MSI spatium 481, and with lexar it gives blue screen, with code : unacceable bootdevice (or soo)

Bot Mobas BIOS up2date

[latent pasture]

whats the first pc

do u put the same 14700k in the 2 different mobos?

[minor charm]

MPG B550 Gaming Plus
R5 5600
Rtx 4070

[latent pasture]

ssd has issues in both systems?

[bronze jay]

Does anyone know of a good system monitor sensor widget

For my task bar, I want to monitor cpu, gpu memory, and ram

[minor charm]

On the amd one only slot 2 works for both ssds
For intel one both gives blue screen

I also tested both ssds on testbench pc both worked

[bronze jay]

@robust trail it didn't fix my text issue and I can't change any settings :/

It's good to have it though, that's a step forward

The drivers that worked well were light dm

[minor charm]

Looks like that's a case that never can be solved

[bronze jay]

I just wrecked my operating system trying to install lightdm. I hope I can fix it with a USB flash. What a pain in the ass.

This is why I need to replace my drive reader so I can make backups before I try shit like this. Now I refuse to go to bed until I get back to where I was.

I don't want to start my day tomorrow pissed off

[kindred halo]

So apparently, the Z370 already has an M.2 Heatsink built in yippee

I won't have to pay 6 US for one,,,,,,,,,

[polar axle]

Whenever I open chrome my pc slows down to a crawl how do I fix

[left dove]

get a better pc

[polar axle]

The mouse moves like once every 10 seconds

[polar axle]

I just built this

My old computer didn’t have this problem

[flint badger]

Specs?

[polar axle]

my last pc is from 2015 bro i promise it’s not a problem w hardware

[left dove]

again, specs

[bronze jay]

goodnight > : (

[flint badger]

Still need specs

[polar axle]

sorry I went to edge to download speccy and it completely froze down wtf

So both chrome and edge do this ??

[bronze jay]

yes

they both use a lot of ram

[flint badger]

Ya that's why I'm asking for specs

[bronze jay]

I use edge anyway because I like it and it has vertical tabs

[flint badger]

Cuz it sounds like your ram is being devoured

And if you cpu isn't that great then the issue would be even worst

[polar axle]

ugh 63c on the cpu while its barely doing anything I think I have to return this AIO

[flint badger]

Yeah I was gonna say thts kinda hot for idle

[polar axle]

lian li ga trinity its soooo loud

[flint badger]

Under load that would be pushing high 90

[polar axle]

yes

[flint badger]

This is fresh windows right no bloat?

[polar axle]

Yes i finished building on sunday

[flint badger]

Check task manager see if your rams being ate up

[polar axle]

only thing on it is games and software for parts

no cpu and ram were only 20% and chrome was fucking lagging my pc out like insane

[flint badger]

Welp delete it and get Librewolf 💀

[polar axle]

bro my 2015 pc never had this issue

wtf is going on

[flint badger]

Could literally be anything

It's why I said try a new browser

[polar axle]

😞

[flint badger]

Edge is still chromium

[polar axle]

idk how to trigger it again rn chrome is acting normal but I think it will happen again

[flint badger]

Try Librewolf and make sure edge and chrome are completely closed

[bronze jay]

You could try linux but it's a pain in the ass and if you're like me you'll be very angry while trying to get the hang of it

I think it's worth it if you're willing to put in the time but it's terrible for normies

[polar axle]

gonna reseat my AIO if not Im gonna return it

so loud and not cooling well

[flint badger]

Ey man if u got nonconductive thermal paste put enough and then put some more

[polar axle]

whatever lian li gave me

in the aio box

and i used their little hexagon sticker thing idk

Im so disappointed

[flint badger]

Felt hm u paid for tht 5070?

[polar axle]

715

[flint badger]

What's Msrp on those like 500

600?

[polar axle]

hold on i shut down icue and temps went down like 12 C wtf 😂

[bronze jay]

msrp isn't real

[polar axle]

i believe so

[flint badger]

Aww man

[stiff nebula]

Turned on my pc today and Im hearing something off. Sounds like one of my lianli fans is having a "dry" bearing.

So is it possible to pop the blades off, clean and lubricate it then slap it back on?

[flint badger]

Bro had the rgb shit on ya something those programs will fuck with ya pc

[clear canyon]

no

[flint badger]

Sometimes*

[stiff nebula]

What do I do?

[flint badger]

Not dry more then likely coming loose

[polar axle]

i still believe something is wrong w the cooler other than the loud radiator fans

[clear canyon]

get new fan or try to clean it via can of air or a blower

[flint badger]

Why?

[polar axle]

is there some sort of software that will benchmark temps and figure out the best fan curves

[flint badger]

I mean I don't use aio ima air cooled guy for life

[polar axle]

icue aside it jumps to 60 C very easily

[flint badger]

I mean maybe nvidia app auto OC

[polar axle]

no gaming

[stiff nebula]

Damn a new fan 💀 its barely even a year old and it just sounds like a squeaky engine is all. (Not loud just faint)

[polar axle]

where is it in the software

[flint badger]

Ya happens clean it with can and see if it persist

[clear canyon]

just clean it out, a fan blade might be dirty so it can off balance the fan

[stiff nebula]

Noted

[flint badger]

Man I'm not on nvidia anymore I gotta amd now so I can't even look and see for you check perf tab

[polar axle]

like okay the CPU temp rn is jumping from 40s to high 60s-70 just because its downloading something this cant be normal

[flint badger]

Sounds normal

U gotta r7 what

[polar axle]

yes

[flint badger]

I gotta r7 7700x and my cpu jumps like that

[flint badger]

They run hot

[stiff nebula]

Whats the best way to clean it? I traditionally use the reverse of a vacuum and a cloth with isopropyl but it doesnt get through every crevice of the fan why I asked if its possible to just pop the blades off.

[flint badger]

Not pop off you'd have to take the gpu apart

[stiff nebula]

Its not the gpu fan just a case fan

[clear canyon]

can of air or pc blower/cleaner

i already said this

[flint badger]

A can of air ohhhhh okokok

Could get a pain brush ig if u want lol

Paint*

[polar axle]

maybe im just used to my old pc parts this new thing reaches high temps way too easily

[stiff nebula]

Ik just askin if theres any other way that "deeply" cleans it

[clear canyon]

literally what I just said

[flint badger]

When I compile shaders my temps jump around from 60 to 90

[stiff nebula]

I meant other than that

[clear canyon]

why?

[flint badger]

Look up your cpu the whole name not just ryzen 7, and then put temps bouncing or idling at 60 whatever your issue is

[polar axle]

So this might just be normal wtf

[flint badger]

And check the Reddits cuz I was concerned to but it's just how my cpu is it's just a hot ass mf when it's under load

[polar axle]

I need to do something about the damn radiator fans though they can not be this loud

[flint badger]

It bounces never sits above 75

[flint badger]

Idk what to tell you about that I use air cooled if it's loud like a bad bearing then ya return it

[stiff nebula]

Was thinking of a paintbrush like what luminous said and theres rarely any canned air sold here so Im stuck with the blower exhaust of a vacuum.

[clear canyon]

ig u can do that, I would just buy a little blower, its very useful

[polar axle]

No it’s not like it has a problem it’s just like they’re built not that well

idk

[stiff nebula]

Yea I'll look into those when I see em

[clear canyon]

you gotta grab them online, Iv never seen them in person

[flint badger]

Not meant to run quiet lol

[flint badger]

Hardware store or Walmarts usually got em

Even seen some at dollar general (I'm in USA)

[clear canyon]

can of air, yes, not the little blowers. never seen them there

[flint badger]

Ohhh okokok

Nah never ins tire but I don't goto pc stores often maybe a staples

Or Best Buy idk

Prob micro center

[clear canyon]

I have one similar to this: https://a.co/d/3ivmFHu

[polar axle]

Also is it normal for your pc to not fully boot up the first time you press on every once in a while

like you have to press reset for it to really turn on

[clear canyon]

what?

no thats not normal

[polar axle]

Man

[polar axle]

like all the lights and mobo n stuff turn on but the case fans don’t start spinning and it doesn’t really post or anything until I press reset

[clear canyon]

yeah thats not normal

[polar axle]

😭 💔

not another problem

I’m very afraid this stuff will be damaged after the 30 day return date

[clear canyon]

are you booting from a hard drive or low end cpu?

[polar axle]

no newly built pc high end specs

[clear canyon]

wdym "high end" what specs

[polar axle]

^

[clear canyon]

4gig 5070??

so its a laptop

i would return it for another

[polar axle]

Wait why does it say that

[clear canyon]

bc a booting issue like that isnt very easy to fix on a laptop

[polar axle]

And the ram speed???

[clear canyon]

wdym

[polar axle]

should be 4800 or 5k something like that

[clear canyon]

its in MHz, so multiply it by 2

but thats still slow for ddr5

and the timings are ass

[left dove]

mega ass

[polar axle]

Why is it saying the vram is 4 gb it should be 12

[molten sleet]

so clean

[clear canyon]

idk

[clear canyon]

super duper mega ass

[limpid dune]

5070 mobile is supposed to be 8GB (it's a similar core to a 4060)

[clear canyon]

ur pc is hella cursed

[clear canyon]

yeah, its very odd

[left dove]

you're using speccy like

[polar axle]

Bro this is so fucked up

[left dove]

wtf, stop

[limpid dune]

can you check task manager too??? that's really weird, nothing should be able to change vram

[clear canyon]

yes, return ram, motherboard and gpu for replacements

[left dove]

gointo bios and turn on fuckin' xmp/expo for one

[bronze summit]

Valorant is such a weird game

[clear canyon]

yeah unless you are physically missing them

[polar axle]

mobo?

[molten sleet]

what makes you say that

[bronze summit]

It has good visuals and it runs pretty well

[polar axle]

why am I returning my mobo

[bronze summit]

But it feels odd

[clear canyon]

its league of legends but pov and with guns

[bronze summit]

I get 600 on 1440p settings High Graphics

[limpid dune]

could it be an Nvidia A400 that has been bios modded to report as a 5070? Check GPU-Z, it'll show us a lot more information about the GPU

[clear canyon]

booting issues

[bronze summit]

Like you know how more FPS in an FPS game = good?

[limpid dune]

valorant is famously CPU heavy, oddly enough

[polar axle]

is there a guide for stuff to do in bios

[clear canyon]

ram bc its dog shit, motherboard bc of boot issues and gpu bc 4gigs of vram on a 5070 is criminal

[limpid dune]

probably stutters

[bronze summit]

Valorant just feels the same with a 144fps lock and 600fps unlocked

[molten sleet]

the speed ramping with movement makes the characters feel heavier than they should and also are you using vsync and/or fullscreen-windowed?

[polar axle]

that 4 gb thing can’t be correct no way it is

[bronze summit]

there's no stutters or anything it just feels like there's no use for 600 fps

[left dove]

yeah its called google & self-reliance

[clear canyon]

oh yeah that is true, its 1am and my brain isnt braining

i have no college classes till thursday at 1pm so im just stayin up lmao

[limpid dune]

yeah, Nvidia doesn't allow vendors to edit VRAM, so I'm thinking it must be a glitch, either in the GPU or in that tool there. maybe try using Task Manager or GPU-Z? post screenshots

[clear canyon]

spoofed gpu is possible tho

[limpid dune]

either that or it's an Nvidia A400 that's being spoofed

[clear canyon]

yeah

[limpid dune]

GPU-Z will show the shader count

(and the ROPS too lmao. might as well check that while we're here)

[clear canyon]

i ate the ROPS so it wont show up

i left none to spare

[polar axle]

not booting without reset

[clear canyon]

why is your buttons in the back, thats so ass

[limpid dune]

yep, that's not ideal

[polar axle]

Bro 💔

I really need help but I also have to go to sleep i got work

[clear canyon]

also, they keyboard. it looks like one of the cheap ones I found at a liquidation place lol. Is yours blue clickys with a cheap build?

[polar axle]

gmmk3 it feels nice

[clear canyon]

just wondering, not tryin to hate

[bronze summit]

my stepdad wants me to take off my entire setup off the table every 2 days in a week like it's a fucking iMac

[clear canyon]

just RKO him

https://tenor.com/view/rko-wwe-wrestling-randy-orton-gif-15820595

[limpid dune]

I haven't taken my setup off the table in... well, since I built it 😭

[bronze summit]

Mind you there's a lotta shit here and this monitor is fucking sensitive

[limpid dune]

I have to move it over to make room for my Commodore Amiga

[polar axle]

I don’t want to dismantle my whole build bro omfg

[clear canyon]

well ur pc is fucked with what you have shown

[limpid dune]

not yet, just do some checks in task manager or GPU-Z to see what they think. it might just be your monitoring software bugging out

as for the power button, you might try double-checking the pins, motherboards do make it confusing

[polar axle]

what do i need to show in task manager

[clear canyon]

gpu and ram speed

[limpid dune]

just a screenshot of the GPU page would be helpful

[limpid dune]

tadaaaaa

see that 30% GPU usage? that's from scrolling discord 💀

[polar axle]

gpu comes up under the integrated graphics for some reason not the actual card thing

[left dove]

how, mine doesn't do that

oh my god you have no active gpu

[left dove]

plug the display cable into the gpu, not the motherboard

[clear canyon]

https://tenor.com/view/flashbang-gif-22572243

[polar axle]

im not that stupid

[limpid dune]

the other one just below - listed as GPU 1

[clear canyon]

gpu is fine and ram is fine, the ram is shit ram

[limpid dune]

oop nvm

[left dove]

go into windws settings and change graphics preferences to favor high performance

yeah see

[clear canyon]

4800MT/s ddr5 is ass

[left dove]

"wuhh im not that stupid"

[polar axle]

this is what i get for listening to microcenter employees choices

[left dove]

does

[limpid dune]

AMD iGPU is just mildly goated (not really) (but I do hold the 3DMark overclocking record for ray tracing with the ryzen 7000 iGPU)

[clear canyon]

yes, they need to be drop kicked

https://tenor.com/view/ave-maria-boling-bros-bolingbros-curbstomp-chikawaga-gif-16650089841190860123

[limpid dune]

you might actually have better RAM - maybe enable EXPO? or, if you have tooo much free time, you can go to #overclocking and you won't touch grass for a month

[left dove]

that called a curb stomp

[clear canyon]

yes but i didnt want to get bot checked again lmao

so I made it slightly more family friendly

[left dove]

..i just said it though

you can do BIOS like this

[polar axle]

No

[polar axle]

I’ll use this next time because I’ve faced this problem a lot

[limpid dune]

probably EXPO 1. try it and see if it's stable, it probably will be

[clear canyon]

whatg is it

[limpid dune]

very nearly posted my full legal name and email 😅

[clear canyon]

i dont mind 🙂

[azure topaz]

do the cmd command i said

[limpid dune]

CMD commands are for smelly linux nerds. I prefer to click through seven small buttons on increasingly dated menu interfaces

[swift kestrel]

does anyone know if is [e-mail] real cuz they are asking me for a sponser and i cant find anything saying its fake or real

[limpid dune]

yknow how they can tell how old a fossil is by how deep it is? windows menus are like that too. you can tell the settings are getting good because the settings page suddenly switches to a Windows 7 interface

[polar axle]

I truly thank yall for the help But I have to go to bed now, I think I will format my pc and reseat my AIO and see where to go from here

I feel cheated by micro center

[azure topaz]

i just got called out and i don’t even like linux

[clear canyon]

yeah your ram is quite slow, you should be running 6000MHz at cl30, not 4800mhz at cl40

[limpid dune]

the RAM is probably OK, but it definitely could be better. an overclock would help, but that's finnicky

EXPO is fun

[polar axle]

I don’t want to oc anything I’m def returning the ram

[limpid dune]

if you do; the best for an AM5 CPU is EXPO-6000 with a CL of like 34 or less

[clear canyon]

ok, the bed is calling my name, so I shall soon slumber like a cucumber

[left dove]

fucking lmao tho
"I'm not that dumb"
"oh no I am that dumb"

[swift kestrel]

lol i run on 2667mhz

[polar axle]

Overly excited for new pc smh

[left dove]

nah i get it

[polar axle]

This is what I get for vertical mounting

[left dove]

but keep in mind when we start asking for specifics its for good reason

[azure topaz]

7200 ram

[swift kestrel]

im so jealous lol

im stuck with a gtx 1650 until i have enough savings

[left dove]

I'm just waiting on my friend to ship out the card

ssoon i will have 24gb of vram nyehehehe

[junior valve]

you wanna trade your 1650 for a 780ti?

[polar axle]

i feel that I just upgraded from a gtx 970

[swift kestrel]

im on laptop

planning to get a desktop so i can use 2 monitors

and so its less loud

[left dove]

ngl I really dont mind fan noise

[swift kestrel]

well its annopying when i wanna stream or smth cuz then i have to turn up the noise supression

which makes my 200 dollar microphone sound bad

[polar axle]

How do I test which setting is better out of expo or xmp

[polar axle]

this AIO is bugging me really bad because at low speeds it’s really noticeable and when the cpu gets hot it’s even more loud

To a bad degree

[junior valve]

what aio

[polar axle]

Lian li galahad trinity

Basic one

[junior valve]

arent those the units that fail alot?

[polar axle]

Bro did I make a single good choice in that store

[grave obsidian]

is 3060 full hd card right?

[azure topaz]

what

[tidal geyser]

I hope that was msrp

[polar axle]

$999

[grave obsidian]

it cant handle 2k gaming i mean

[junior valve]

@polar axle

[tidal geyser]

No

[polar axle]

It’s not failing the fans that came with it are just not making me happy

[tidal geyser]

Fhd is not 1440p

[junior valve]

why

[polar axle]

Loud noise

[tidal geyser]

So lower the fan speed

[polar axle]

Worse cooling

[tidal geyser]

Fhd=1080p

[tidal geyser]

How hot does it get when you lower fan speeds?

[edgy holly]

good morning peyt

[polar axle]

Haven’t tested too much yet I only barely just built it

[left dove]

Evenin' for 7 more minutes

[tidal geyser]

[analog phoenix]

I need support

[azure topaz]

no

[analog phoenix]

Awwe

[azure topaz]

what is

[analog phoenix]

Why?

[azure topaz]

whats yo problem

[analog phoenix]

My sister put a pattern lock on my phone, then promptly "forgot" it

[azure topaz]

uhhhhhhhhhhhh

[analog phoenix]

I can't reset it

At all, like, not even from Android Recovery

[azure topaz]

and no theres not a way to get around it

i dont reckon

[analog phoenix]

There is

But I don't know how to

It's through the ADB Shell

[azure topaz]

recovery mode doesnt work?

[analog phoenix]

Nope

No option to Wipe Factory

[frail delta]

Reset it from Google’s Find My Device or whatever they call it

[analog phoenix]

Can't, the google account was deleted

[frail delta]

Then even if you could reset it from the recovery screen you wouldn’t be able to use it

Because it’d be locked

[analog phoenix]

I have factored from android recovery on a tablet, and it was fine. The pass was forgotten, there is a website.

If you go through Samsung Keyboard, go to stickers, then Galaxy Store, download a Web browser, open the site, and change the pin/pattern

[tidal trail]

what thermal pads should i get for my ram gonna install 3rd party heatsinks

[edgy holly]

that does not suond too good

[edgy holly]

kill her

[left dove]

I mean, I am trying to lose weight

so

[analog phoenix]

:0

[edgy holly]

yeah, but thats prolly not the best way to lose weight idk im not a nutritionist

[analog phoenix]

I can't as much as I want to

[edgy holly]

i dont sell self-improvement courses and dont eat steaks dipped in egg yolk

[azure topaz]

so basically this person isn’t getting their phone back

[edgy holly]

get her to buy you a new one

[analog phoenix]

Wb through ADB shell?

[edgy holly]

she locked you out of your phone, therefore shes the one whos's gon have to give u a new one lol

[analog phoenix]

That's a good idea

[analog phoenix]

Yeahh

[edgy holly]

might as well ask her an upgrade/newer one for all the trouble she gave you

[analog phoenix]

Good idea

[edgy holly]

if she refuse to pay unironically do the same shit to her phone

[analog phoenix]

:)

[edgy holly]

i feel like im being a small devil on your shoulder telling you to do evil things lol

[analog phoenix]

Lol

[formal sonnet]

Since there's no option to Wipe data/factory reset in the recovery menu on the phone, you can try to use Motorola's Software Fix tool to flash the device back to factory settings.

[raw olive]

man i love liquid metal

[median warren]

Ikr, it tastes so good

[swift moss]

😮‍💨

[brave brook]

coins are so useless on ali, my orders barely make any use of them. Ironically doing few games in "play & earn" give you more on coupons

[swift moss]

Yeah lol

Do you just get the coupons outright if U play them

[obsidian oriole]

Would I be crazy for wanting to trade my 5090 for a 4090 + value difference? These 50-series freezes are absolutely insane. And who knows how many months it will be fixed.

[glad fog]

people really thought that they'd get more than 30fps with path tracing on most hardware in half life 2 rtx.

[wild solar]

any one know how to fix this

also how do i install the microsoft store

shit is gone

[dusky crest]

Anything like this but magsafe 2 instead of Lenovo plug?

[dusky crest]

I get that when i game lol
I use ltsc so that's why i get that, cuz ltsc doesn't come with ms store

You can just ignore it

[wild solar]

no i cant just ignore it its stopping me from using audio

i click it and it show that error

im on a laptop i have speakers

and my headphone jacks doesnt work

[dusky crest]

What

Install your drivers omg

[alpine plank]

Hi

I just got this new monitor off of fb marketplace but the colors seem kinda off in chrome

[dusky crest]

Can you please send the link?

[wild solar]

i did i tried intel an realtek and anything else none of them work

[mellow cairn]

..... That's a screenshot

[wild solar]

my track pad doesnt work too

[alpine plank]

i dont think this is a hardware thing with teh monitor cause its visible on the ss

[snow kettle]

not a monitor problem

[alpine plank]

yeah exactly

[mellow cairn]

I literally Googled MagSafe to USB c

[mellow cairn]

.... How is it going to show an issue with your monitor

[dusky crest]

https://www.snappy-driver-installer.org/

[snow kettle]

@alpine plank reinstall graphics driver, maybe it got messed up when it detected the new monitor

[alpine plank]

nah cause it wasnt there with my old monitor

so something related to the monitor messed it up

[wild solar]

i already did all that

[mellow cairn]

Ok this is all insane, I will return later

[gloomy sleet]

no you messed up your settings in google

[alpine plank]

that actually might be true

but i didnt mess with any google settings

[gloomy sleet]

your monitor has nothing to do with it

[brave brook]

you get "blue points" for completing tasks, and you can exchange them later for coupons. You get 100-300 blue points per game, so you can easily get around 500-1000 per day. There are two types of coupons, X euros for orders over Y euros, and then plain X euros coupons. For example $1 over $10 is for 8000 points, $1 plain coupon is for 10k points. So you can get the coupons pretty fast, in few days for $1 coupons

[swift moss]

Perfect

I love spending my time I could spend working a job to get a dollar coupon for a couple hours of work

[brave brook]

well, instead of doomscrolling while sitting on a throne you will play games 😄

[swift moss]

Who else out here on onshape while on the toilet

[true stirrup]

How are we supposed to tell the colours of your monitor from a screenshot 😭

[alpine plank]

.

Idk if it might be just google acting up

[true stirrup]

The screenshot will use the right colours because it's completely unrelated to the monitor but to windows

[alpine plank]

Yeah exactly thats my point 😭😭😭

If its a software thing, windows picks it up

[true stirrup]

Windows picks up what windows wants to pick up

[formal sonnet]

The Microsoft Store is built-in to consumer versions of Windows... unless you've done something to the OS, or perhaps aren't using a clean / unmodified version of Windows 11 Home / Pro per chance?

[drifting geode]

is this good for Roblox and Minecraft my budget is £450

[snow kettle]

@alpine plank did your new monitor have a usb hub or smth, if it does and you plugged it into your pc it might be trying to install some monitor software/feature causing it to glitch

[wild solar]

im using windows 10 enterprise iot

[formal sonnet]

Well there's your problem. Install a supported OS that you have a license for and you'll get the MS Store.

[wild solar]

or well that what it says atleast

[wild solar]

what do you mean "that you have a license for"?

[formal sonnet]

You need a license to run Windows. If this is a pre-built computer or laptop, it would have come with a built-in license for Windows Home or Pro, so that's what I would recommend you install. Windows Enterprise IoT isn't something that regular consumers can purchase licenses for... easily... or "legally."

[wild solar]

but my data will be gone

[elder quarry]

or just live with this

[true stirrup]

Save money with used ram and motherboard and dump more into a GPU tbh

Using Windows without activating it with a legitimately acquired license violates the EULA you agreed to the moment you began to use the software.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/useterms
Windows > 11 > Language > English
5. Authorized Software and Activation. You are authorized to use this software only if you are properly licensed and the software has been properly activated with a genuine product key or by other authorized method. When you connect to the Internet while using the software, the software will automatically contact Microsoft or its affiliate to conduct activation to associate it with a certain device. You can also activate the software manually by Internet or telephone. In either case, transmission of certain information will occur, and Internet, telephone and SMS service charges may apply. During activation (or reactivation that may be triggered by changes to your device’s components), the software may determine that the installed instance of the software is counterfeit, improperly licensed or includes unauthorized changes. If activation fails, the software will attempt to repair itself by replacing any tampered Microsoft software with genuine Microsoft software. You may also receive reminders to obtain a proper license for the software. Successful activation does not confirm that the software is genuine or properly licensed. You may not bypass or circumvent activation. To help determine if your software is genuine and whether you are properly licensed, see https://aka.ms/genuine. Certain updates, support, and other services might be offered only to users of genuine Microsoft software.
