i'd prefer 1060 but can it lower to 960 ?

You're better off just getting a 1060, they're around 50-60ish USD. The price difference isn't worth it

Into the HDMI port on the back of your GPU. You can also use DisplayPort if you have such a cable and your GPU + monitor support that connection standard.

kindred halo

Okay the 2 cores aren't as bad as I remember

kindred halo
# white mica

Sooometimes you need to restart your PC for a signal to be outputted, although just try unplugging it then plugging it back in, either into the same slot, or one of the two different slots

teal sphinx
#

Also check if the cap lock lights up when you press it

white mica
kindred halo
#

Yes, make sure it's not the power button

white mica
#

or is it because I don't have the wifi plugged in yet

teal sphinx
kindred halo
#

Caps lock lighting up, RGB lighting up, etc

#

My mouse's RGB didn't light up when a signal wasn't found

white mica
#

plugged in a keyboard and it isnt on

teal sphinx
#

The caplock doesn’t light up?

kindred halo

Maybe there are some diagnostic led

white mica

teal sphinx

Hmm

kindred halo

Okay let's try the IT classic

teal sphinx
#

You reckon it’s training memory?

kindred halo
#

Although doesn't that take a bootup or two? Or just configures itself in one?

teal sphinx
#

I am not so sure to be honest

white mica
#

what should i do

#

just wait?

teal sphinx

Try to look at the side panel

Lemme check the manual

teal sphinx
fickle ivy
#

okay now its connected but the link wont load

teal sphinx
#

It’s saying red led is the cpu and dram is yellow

#

Are you sure you didn’t miss read the label or I just looked at the wrong manual

kindred halo
#

@white mica A2 & B2

#

So the slots you didn't use

kindred halo
kindred halo
#

He sent me the link for the PRO

teal sphinx
#

Ohh

Pardon my confusion @white mica

white mica

#

2nd snd 4th

teal sphinx
#

The light gray one basically

teal sphinx
kindred halo
#

I still haven't gotten used to this board,,,,

teal sphinx
#

This is the pro model

teal sphinx
#

Oops I sent the wrong picture that’s what I said I always press the wrong image linuth

teal sphinx
#

So supposedly it’s the cpu that’s lighting up

#

You reckon they need bios update eh?

teal sphinx
#

It shouldn’t need a bios update

kindred halo

elder quarry
#

Well with the questionmark

Since the 5800x is supported since the release bios version

Imagine he seated the CPU wrong

#

Or it's a bad CPU

#

boo

teal sphinx
#

But that’s the am4 right?

kindred halo
#

Yes

teal sphinx
#

How is it even possible you seated it wrong

kindred halo
#

570 is AM4

teal sphinx
#

You just put in the holes

kindred halo
#

Wouldn't be surprised if someone got a 24p into the 8x2 slots on a GPU

teal sphinx
#

Let’s hope it’s just the dram configuration

kindred halo
#

It's glowing red though,,,,,

quasi field
#

How is this possible

#

Is that a record?

kindred halo
#

7.7GHz

quasi field
#

Yes

kindred halo
#

I think the 14900KS maxxed out at 5.5

white mica
#

do i just plug it in

kindred halo
#

6.2

#

Its highest was 6.2GHz

#

Take a video of this quickly

quasi field
#

Video?

teal sphinx
quasi field
#

GOD DAMN

white mica
#

but its not red

#

if it is cpu what happens

teal sphinx
#

It’s not red?

#

What colour now

white mica
#

how do ik if my ram is fully in

#

@teal sphinx

teal sphinx
#

Uhh see if the clips on both sides are completely vertical like perpendicular to the board

teal sphinx
#

Ya

kindred halo
#

Well, 7.7GHz is still a massive achievement

quasi field
#

It was a 9800x3d tho

white mica
teal sphinx
#

Wait

white mica
#

also should the ram be straight in

teal sphinx
white mica
#

should i flick it up first

teal sphinx
#

The first picture

white mica
#

before putting it in

teal sphinx
#

If it’s pouting straight up that means it’s slotted in

teal sphinx
white mica
teal sphinx
#

Ya

white mica
#

where should i aim placing the ram

teal sphinx
white mica
serene pumice
white mica
#

should i line it up

cosmic idol
white mica
#

and should it click?

cosmic idol
# white mica and should it click?

line it up with the notch properly, then push down until it clicks essentially, just don't like, have it leaning to the left or right you know

teal sphinx
#

Idk a lot of people give the click advise I feel like a lot of the time I don’t hear it myself

cosmic idol
#

honestly valid

teal sphinx
#

If it doesnt line up rotate the ram 180 degree

teal sphinx
#

Sometimes I feel like what’s common sense to me isn’t common sense to my friends

#

Ive had friend upgrade ram without unplugging electricity

white mica
#

like it says "vram"

teal sphinx
teal sphinx
white mica
#

yeah dram sorry

teal sphinx
#

Let me see if you can update the bios maybe

teal sphinx
#

Not cpu?

white mica
#

no

teal sphinx
#

Cuz your motherboard manual indicate red light is cpu

white mica
#

it says dram like cpu is above it

#

yeah i think its the order of the things

#

like it has a light next to each word

teal sphinx
#

If it’s possible try to take a close up picture of it

kindred halo
#

Okay this 2c CPU isn't as bad as I remember

#

It's a bit slow but not that much

teal sphinx
kindred halo
#

Wdym

white mica
teal sphinx
#

Dunno

white mica
#

if u zoom in it has the words next to a light

teal sphinx
#

Wait it’s not red anymore

#

white mica
#

omfg

teal sphinx
#

Yeah now it’s ram

white mica
#

#

#

teal sphinx
#

Hmm

kindred halo
#

You can update RAM 😭???

teal sphinx
#

Turn off the electric and remove the ram

white mica
#

teal sphinx
#

Insert one of the ram to the grey slot to the right

white mica
#

teal sphinx
#

No the 4th one the one to the most right

white mica
#

oh put it in the 3rd?

teal sphinx
#

No

white mica
#

teal sphinx
#

Most right side

Do y'all have any recomms? I heard atlasOS is good, but not as safe as win11. I also heard about tiny10 and 11.

Don’t use anything else, it violates the windows EULA and there is no saying what is on that iso

Third party ISOs are a bad idea

Is the “optimizations for windowed games” feature only available on windows 11 and not on windows 10?

Question my game for some reason starting up on a smaller screen and now the max resolution also is different is this due to steam, the game itself or pc settings? Anybody got any advice? as I'm now playing it kinda windowed before it was fullscreen and I never changed anything btw,
2. how do I know what language is ascribed to my keyboard that I use? and how do I make that the standard as I have to switch everytime when wanting to use some keys.

OK so right now my PC is basically running in open air but my case is arriving today. What should I take off to make it easier to install in the case

finite reef
lethal bay
finite reef
#

wait I just noticed something this might have to do with the issue

#

when starting up some games (sometimes they are randomly zoomed in or zoomed out or windowed.)

#

for example now as a test I booted up rdr2 and I am having that but instead its full screen but so zoomed in which idk why either lol

lethal bay
#

I remember my 6700XT being able to do 1200 to 1075 but maybe non XT cards have less wiggle room

worldly topaz
#

Wow, I found a stable point

#

1085

#

And a little bit screwing with memory

finite reef
#

@worldly topaz

#

see what I mean? can I change that every game starts on fullscreen

#

automatically when possible

#

and also i only hbad this for now with rdr2 that it was zoomed in randomly which was extremely zoomed in and hello neighbour now being windowed ig

#

but I noticed this issue today only

#

I booted up my pc and now had this

worldly topaz
worldly topaz
#

It is not a steam issue

Does autoHDR work on win11 vm?

finite reef
#

lemme restart my pc maybe just a random issue

worldly topaz

#

display settings ig?

latent pasture
#

make it not launch fullscreen in the games settings

#

this shouldnt be a windows or steam thing

finite reef
#

but there is nothing shown in the games settings brother

#

thats what confused me the most

#

question just curious does this have to do with the bios changes that I did yesterday or not at all

latent pasture

Unfortunately I cannot install Minecraft
WiFi keeps gradually going from 900 KB/s down to 0 b/s within 5 minutes and then the download dies

#

Will wait until next month to order a 10m ethernet cable

latent pasture
#

for steam you have to type a specific string in launch options to make a game launch in fullscreen

finite reef
#

im gonna crash out fr with this game

#

I looked in game settings nothing changed except the resolution amount which idk how changed the maximum changed @latent pasture

#

I saw no borders yesterday when playing I got to windowed fullscreen it now

#

my gpu is a 5080 but my monitor is for 2k 165 hz do I pick 2k then or higher?

#

for some reason tho my hz cannot be 165 hz

teal sphinx
finite reef
#

am I supposed to be using dp?

teal sphinx
#

what's the hdmi version supported by your monitor
also the cable

#

or just use dp ig

finite reef
#

ig i use dp then? @teal sphinx

teal sphinx
#

ya you got the cable?

finite reef
#

yeo\

#

I hope its fixed after lol

teal sphinx
#

that's 4k not 2k

solar moat
teal sphinx
#

I think even on hdmi 2.1 max you can do is 4k 120hz

cosmic idol
solar moat
teal sphinx
#

wait you can do 4k 165hz now?

finite reef
cosmic idol
#

I'm moving to 1440p 165 soon hapy

solar moat
teal sphinx
finite reef
#

now lets see if my game still does something weird when boting it up

solar moat
teal sphinx
#

i guess i am outdated on the informationb

finite reef
#

what was on hdmi

solar moat
teal sphinx
#

well display port should be able to support everything

finite reef
#

my game is now not fully full screen ima go nuts

#

its triggering me so much

#

I fixed the 165HZ part but not this

teal sphinx
finite reef
#

it would start up at full screen before tho

teal sphinx
#

maybe check the video settings in game?

finite reef
#

brother the video settings are fine in game

#

and I cant change it in game turst I am not lazy I am thinking it might be game related

#

but yesterday (on hdmi) it was auto fullscreen

teal sphinx
#

like turning the fullscreen on and off in the settings

#

that's the best i can think of ¯_(ツ)_/¯

finite reef
#

I cant in the settings thats my whole point

teal sphinx
#

or just press alt + enter if that help

finite reef
#

i tried that before you suggested it aswell also a no

#

I think I have to fix it as it is a issue some have faced aswell

#

just inc ase ima test boot some other games

sleek ibex
dapper light
#

i think this is the most uptime i ever got

teal sphinx
#

@finite reef hmm i saw on a reddit thread that you can press alt + tab to change it into windowed mode and then in the windowed mode you hold down alt tab, and press the maximize button on the windows menu

finite reef
sleek ibex
#

Oh no

finite reef
finite reef
sleek ibex

#

lemme try some other games as a test boot and then come back to hello neighbour gimme a moment

teal sphinx
#

it look game specific

finite reef
#

as far as of now I think so aswell

teal sphinx
#

Does that paper do anything to protect the cpu socket in shipping tbhn?

teal sphinx
#

it seems they're the flipper too

#

is it that expensive to few a few cent on a cpu cover?

finite reef
#

btw another quesiton is @teal sphinx

#

when other games show 3620x2036 option instead of 2560x1440 am I able to choose the higher one?

teal sphinx
#

yeah it's run at higher resolution

finite reef
#

as much as people say you wont spot a difference I do sometimes and Ilike the other option more but I got a 2k monitor so yea

finite reef
teal sphinx
#

you got a 4k monitor sir

finite reef
#

my pc can handle it so im good

teal sphinx
#

that's not a 2k monitor

finite reef
#

@teal sphinx

teal sphinx
#

huh that's weird

#

oh i guess windows is like

solar moat
teal sphinx
#

it shows that as an option but it would downscale it to 2k anyway

finite reef
finite reef
teal sphinx
finite reef
#

Welp nvm idk why it says 4k @teal sphinx

teal sphinx
#

probably windows is going to downscale it anyway

hollow sorrel
#

Would it just be my GPU I need to remove for putting my pc in the case?

finite reef
#

ima test boot a few more games and lyk brb

teal sphinx
hollow sorrel
#

And of course the psu

teal sphinx
#

install all the mobo screw

hollow sorrel
#

Putting it together outside the case was a piece of cake though

#

Wait what about my cooler it's huge will I need to remove that?

teal sphinx
#

if it's blocking the motherboard screw, yeah

hollow sorrel
#

Actually nvm it was a pain to put on I'm not doing that again anyway

finite reef
hollow sorrel
#

Is there usually a motherboard screw in the middle for atx?

hollow sorrel
#

Oof

teal sphinx
#

middle to the side iirc

hollow sorrel
#

I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that

#

Oh wait I can see it and I can kinda access it

normal blade
#

How do I check if a screen is actually 120hz? Besides the smoothness which feels the same as 60hz

teal sphinx
#

what cooler you even have anyway

teal sphinx
#

i remember 90hz being way smoother than 60hz but i guess i got friend that cannot tell

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

normal blade
#

Tried that, it says 120hz, but I put that and 60hz side by side with a slow mo camera and it looks exactly the same😭

teal sphinx
#

be glad ig?

#

now you know no need to waste money on 120hz, 60hz enough 😂

hollow sorrel
#

My case should come with pcie screws right

teal sphinx
teal sphinx
#

holy shit my display is horrible

#

60hz also got difference in 60hz

normal blade
teal sphinx

mine is a fucking blurry nauseous inducing mess

#

Ok a few more left @teal sphinx but I think its the the game man ima test a few more

tulip sparrow
#

More bugs coming to light

sleek ibex
teal sphinx
#

the laptop screen is really horrible despite both being 60hz

rigid fjord
finite reef
rigid fjord
#

which tbh due to what newer versions of dlss can do

finite reef
#

the game shows 165 hz tho

rigid fjord
teal sphinx
#

"you could select that but it does not mean it will be at 165hz,"

#

i don't understand

kindred halo
#

Isn't the main difference between HDMI & DP just that HDMI only does 4k60, when DP does 4k120

kindred halo
#

Huh, things just got more confusing then

teal sphinx
#

i think dp can do 4k 165 right?

rigid fjord
#

tbh, you could do 8k 60hz off of hdmi tbf

finite reef
#

so I get 165hz? or?

#

and also if rthe game says 165 hz then does it mean I can get that with 165hz cus I notice no slow movement its certainly not under 60hz

kindred halo
#

Either HugeProblems® is giving outdated info or it's technically right - I don't know which

teal sphinx
#

also it seems you're using variable refresh rate anyway

finite reef
#

@rigid fjord pls explain this to me

#

@teal sphinx ok conclusion its hello neighbour idk why but I got the issue now how do I fix the fc now?

If I need to hear ambient noise, phone audio, and radio audio, is a little pocket mixer likely the best idea? Couple jacks and pots, and just pop out my earphones when I need to hear more ambient?

teal sphinx
#

oh so what you're saying is at higher resolution you get less fps

#

so it might be less smooth cuz not enough fps

#

what you said originally seem missleading

kindred halo
teal sphinx
#

anyway it's plenty for 2k 165hz

rigid fjord
#

1440p will never be 2k res in any situation

teal sphinx
#

1440p is 2k?

kindred halo
#

I have outdated information
Newest DP is actually 2.1

latent tundra
#

do we have camera channel

rigid fjord
teal sphinx
#

or not wait i am confused

kindred halo
#

It does 10k60 w/o DSC
16k60 w/ DSC

rigid fjord
sleek ibex
#

2K is usually what you see in cinemas

teal sphinx
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

it's a hot confusing mess

rigid fjord
teal sphinx
#

anyway dp have plenty of bandwidth for 1440p 165hz

finite reef
#

2k is 2160

teal sphinx
kindred halo
finite reef
sleek ibex
#

No that would be 4K
