My gut tells me that this isn't a mic issue as much as a boot initialization issue with your computer. But you should rule the mic out.
Going to try plugging it into the other usb c port in the back of the pc
Try it on a laptop or some other machine to rule it out
Don’t have anything around me at the moment
how is a mic going to affect that?
that's the question we're trying to answer
it's not a boot setting
It could be that the mic takes a long time to respond during boot, but we won't know that until the mic is tried elsewhere to see if that's the case.
Y'all think that a 9950X3D is worth it over a 9950X?
if u gaming then yes
What if they're super multithreaded games?
You won't find any
I.e. Cities Skylines II
Are they sold out?
So, I did a quick lookup on that mic series. The other, goofy thing that came up is that that mic could draw power prior to the PC actually booting. The power draw could put the machine in a delayed boot state or prevent it.
Some users have reported that unplugging the mic and re-plugging it in was their only solution.
Yeah that’s what I’ve been doing 🙁
It’s also a really annoying thing to have to do lol
not ideal, that's for sure
The mic is amazing, but this issue sucksss lol
do you happen to have a usb hub?
Yeah I have a razer headset holder which has a few usb ports on it
No usb c port though
for shitz and giggles, try plugging the mic in through the hub.
Ok
nooooooooooooo ☠️
Would it be worth getting Threadripper instead?
No idea what you do on the PC
my little soda pop
Mostly sim-heavy games and Chrome tabs
Not sure if a usb c to c mic using a c to usb a cable connection would mess with anything
But it looks like it booted correctly lmao
Going through to usb hub, no idea if it’s due to it using a c to a cord or if it’s because it went through the hub
You don't get a thread ripper for gaming
I am thinking it's a power cycle thing
As long as the data can pass through 
I saw someone with another mic saying they had an issue and it was due to power draw
They said they got a go xlr to fix it, not sure what that is though
Wouldn’t affect quality?
it means they are going through another device before connecting to their PC.
That can sometimes improve quality. They might be using a mixer.
Id suspect lower quality then aux but I'm not big on audio
I just know my type c to android is worse then auxiliary to android so unsure
https://eu.govee.com/sv-se/pages/compare-product?handle=govee-cob-strip-light-pro
I just got this and was wondering, do I put it at front or back of my desk, considering it’s a strip that looks good however, but what would give nicer light
Ah, that’s a bit of an extreme solution, if the c to a sounds good still then I’m totally fine with this solution
nah. Think of how a musician would set it up if they had a mic and an instrument. Both inputs wouldn't go directly into the PC
yeah, that seems like a good way to go
This is the setup btw
Personal preference
I personally think the front would not feel good when you sit at the table but I could be wrong
Yeah I thought so
Also on the back edge, it’s a pretty thick desk, should I put it in the middle, bottom or top of the desk itself,
and will cables cast shadows if I draw them infront?
Clean
I’d personally need more desk space but I also use too many screens
it's not. you're bypassing the internal adc and preamp in the mic to use an external one in the go xlr, which will likely be of higher quality. not that it matters much
w
That one exhaust rgb trying to ruin the entire setup 
Yeah…
Dw it’ll help… I got a edited video that shows the true beauty
There’s the true thing
Picked up 3 of these for $2. Any use for them in 2025? I'm not an apple person and the only iPhone I have is a 3GS.
well, it's an 802.11n router. Do you have use for it ?
AirPort Express is a discontinued line of Wi-Fi base stations made from Apple Inc. from 2004 to 2018. It was positioned as the entry-level router in the AirPort product line, below the AirPort Extreme and AirPort Time Capsule. While more compact and in some ways simpler than the AirPort Extreme, the Express offered audio output capability the Ex...
(or maybe just AP, can't be sure with apple specs)
i think it can still be used for good quality airplay audio thing
theres a 3.5mm plug on it so you can hook up to any speaker and it just shows up as an airplay device
and you can stream music to it in really good quality
also it supports printers via usb so if you have an old printer thats not wireless you can convert it to airprint with this
is this actual malware or false alarm
day 33 of waiting for the 5070 ti super
how could anyone know without context
https://www.reddit.com/r/WindowsHelp/comments/qoetiv/error_0x800700e1_due_to_virus_how_to_remove/ it's up to you to decide if it is a virus/unwanted software or a false positive. We can't decide that for you
as in do you guys also get this warning sometimes
no, I use linux
people pay for these 
Why though
resell
And they scored them for $0 and sold them to you for $5
🔥
office clearout
these were unused and office was relocating
5 is still cheap for two coolers
why is nobody here speaking
anyone here familiar with computer speakers?
using the razer nommo chroma speakers but theyve gotten old and are getting a bit poppy sometimes
not sure what speakers would be a good purchase
How to fix when i start my pc it all of a sudden said it didnt start right and shows a blue screen
shut down and try again
what you using it for
tried it many times didnt work
whats the error code
music and gaming
ideally the speakers would have software to change settings
its in finnish but thats what it said
dont get xeon get like a celeron
xeons are tuff
have u been messing around with BIOS or registry or drivers or anything?
no it was transported from a house to another and it stopped working
maybe a component came loose, ram?
i doubt its anything other than hard drive cables or ram
Z flip 5 without it's screen
anyone know how these are?
I ripped the screen off of my s22u
im not sure if anythings loose but this is what it looks like if you can see anything wrong with it
Looks solid
wondering if the sound quality would be a good upgrade from the razer nommo chroma's
also really want to be able to mess with eq settings
Not sure, could drop it in #audio-tech more dedicated to the sound space in there 
ah didnt know that was a channel ty!
Anyone ever used Sunhayato SCH-20 on computers before? supposedly it has a thermal conductivity that's about 85% as good as Arctic Silver, and can do 200 C
I have some lying around, and can't find my good stuff, but dunno if I'm shooting myself in the foot by trying to use this.
Both my Ethernet cable and wifi card shat out on the same day💔
3mbs is crazy on countrstrike
Think you have a different problem
I highly doubt your wifi card and Ethernet cable shat themselves out in the same day
I mean the Ethernet cable got bent up and my wifi card won’t even give me a power light
Makes since I messed something up moving my pc setup
I can’t even listen to music on Spotify I have to put a cd in and use media player 💔
BAHAHAH
spotify downloader on different device then usb
Optical media only for the poop box pc
Disk rot
Only one had disk rot somehow
I live in one of the most humid area of the states to
Thankfully it was a horrible album
How's the new lights, epilepsy warning
How’s the new power supply
Good
Lmao I thought one of my AirPods broke until I looked in the eartip and it was blocked with gunk
I never clean my AirPods soo
i took a drive from my o
my old machine and put it in tis one
what does the lock eman
im gonna guess it means it was encrypted on your old machine
idk i didnt encrypt it
Too much info
windows sometimes does it on its own
should i bother encrypting it
it gives me the option to
no benefit unless your device gets stolen
I left it like this running a stress test last thing in a Friday cause I wanted to get home
it means you used bitlocker in the previous system
8g for $10 what a steal
that's like 10-15 applications
decent psu, tier A i believe
is it...
K ima get it then
Yeah every other paste I’ve been buying is like $6/gram 😭
Kingpin KPX especially
i have an arctic mx4, idk how much ive paid for it but its been 2 years and i still use it
well kpx is meant to be for XOC like kryonaut
They have a 8 year shelf life 
True but I kept getting it recommended to me so I figured I’d try it out
are people using xoc paste on non xoc applications
I put kryonaut on my 6900xt that runs 400+ watts and it’s been awesome
But on my cpu it makes 0 diff for me
Bare die difference bb
dont know how it will hold up long term tho
i have been using mx4 and mx6 and it doesent degrade
some, stupidly yes, though you can actually daily with kpx unlike kryonaut
6 months later and a repaste will be needed
I had mx5...
I repaste this mf every few months already lmao
the one that acted like thermal epoxy, rofl
what would be a good way to control all of my pc fans, esp AIO? Got the Arctic freezer III pro 360 and its goddamn loud at times it doesnt need to be
remo's fan control
you let it do a test then set up a custom curve
did both of those already, then turned pc off and i have to redo all of it now
you shouldn't need to once the curve is actually set
Ruined my 3600 pins while uninstalling my cooler
with the arctic paste you'd only need to do it once every 4 years tbh
forgot this app existed
convenient app
what is it called again
Recently I found out that Nova Lake (Intel's Arrow Lake successor) desktop CPUs would be on another new LGA1954 socket...
New socket again. Core ultra 200 series would be the only generation on 1851 socket lol
Changing socket every generation, i am very sceptical about intel comeback at this point, nobody wants to buy new mobo everytime
im more concerned with when its coming out
and ddr6
......@hardy patio
ye nah, same thing happened again, restarted pc and everythings reset
Tf ik we aint talking about ddr6 already
you don't have any curves set with specific sensors, so the controls won't link to it
nah i set the curves up for the second time, connected speed and controls
everything was working, restart pc and its all gone
nope, i see nothing ther about curves, just controls so, definitely not
again, it deleted all of the things i did as soon as i restarted
im doing the curves again now well see
it don't do that unless you've fucked something up
export a copy of the json file just in case
Could it have to do w the fact it needs permission every time it starts up?
it shouldn't need that
well see, ill restart again kek
i never have that happen
Okay so Nvidia's ChatRTX local ai bot let me run it on my old 3070 ti (but slow with only 8gb vram). But on my 5060 ti with 16gb vram, it says not supported?
works now, weird haha
I have to over clock my gpu just to get above 60 fps on fallout 4 gpu Isint even being utilized 💔
Nv can’t even start
Is the 720 hz monitor from asus worth it?
no
At what point is too many Hz?
Every year we get atleast 200 more hz
Like should I wait for 1000 hz?
Which is like 3 years from now
anything more than 240 is just silly, some get 360 but at the price difference, i doubt its worth it
thx mate
yeah amazingly its almost like its in every aspect of our lives for no real good reason half the time
it's like a basic thing of googling
More than 144hz is pointless for 99.99% of people tbh
One could even argue 120hz
i cant discuss anything above 100hz because even though i have a 180hz monitor, my CURRENT specs cant handle that much lol
im a budget baller who wants aesthetics, performance, AND video quality at 1440p. clearly a mix that doesnt work well
i barely get above 90 fps in 1440p performance low in fortnite 😂
higher refresh rate also makes scrolling much more comfortable
This is something I kinda wish I could have on Linux, unless something does exist and I just keep missing it.
whenever my windows decides to randomly reset to 60hz for no reason, i always realise it when im scrolling either on google or on discord lol
just moving the mouse is enought to notice
how can i tell if an HDD is failing?
gemini is telling me that this drive is failing
because of the seek_error_rate
and raw_read_error_rate
relocated sector , bad block and error count is a good indicator
if software reports it as failing/warning such as crystaldisk, high noise, high vibrations
much slower write than it used to be after first full write despite the disk being “clean” now
the s.m.a.r.t satus is passed and its a 2 year old 3.5 in seagate
im getting around 500mbits
this is the drive that i no longer use
im doing a large transfer over smb and it seems to cut out periodically
Probably fine?
ok, gemini had me trippin
Classic gemini
heyhey
welcome back 😄
not you
loool
hi kvetinky
making a pc for editing and gaming, how does this look? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Gx3BBq
Part List - Intel Core Ultra 7 265K, GeForce RTX 5060, Montech AIR 100 ARGB MicroATX Mid Tower
it looks like shit
and peyton
death to rgb
and rauko
sup
5060s r trash
hey lil dude
wsp
whats the saturday night plan?
yall is a MSI PRO Z790-P WiFi a good board?
revived my old ender 3 the other day, old thing still runs great
its pretty decent
good
I think i should repaste my laptop's gpu
yayy
personal pref
It's genuinely stupid, just like the fishtank craze
ok?
planning to pair it with a i7-14700k
death to rgb
I'm pretty sure this laptop is still running the original paste
hey what about i kill you
just make sure you dont pair it with an RTX 5060
which doesn't sound terrible
why
cause they suck
cope i guess
Except that the laptop is a 2009 Msi CR600
5070 or higher
il reuse my shunt modded 2080 its keeping up fine
why do they suck?
Laptop i'm currently using has RGB
The wifi light is green
another radom status light is blue
and the battery indicator is flashing red
like 84 fps avg in cyperbunk 2077 with 47 fps lows
cause it's still got it's original battery from 2009
because you can just get a 3070 for a better price and have it out perform the 5060
Rgb
only thing you lack with the 30 series is frame gen
the only rgb in my entire setup is my keyboard and mouse xd
and the back of the motherboard has some but u cant really see that
isnt there some steam app that fixes that
Sick laptop RGB
not sure, i thought framegen was a dedicated portion on the gpu that adds extra frames inbetween frames
Useful rgb
what oldasf thing isat
It's a 2009 Msi CR600 I got for free from return-it depot
It's good
Lossless Scaling is a powerful tool that enhances your gaming experience by making games smoother with LSFG frame generation and optionally improving quality or performance with various scaling algorithms and machine learning models like LS1. It's compatible with most games, even those that don't have built-in frame generation or scaling, as well…

Core 2 Duo T6600, 4gb DDR2 667mhz and Nvidia 8200M G
Does anyone here know anything about Mine Craft "Enchanted Dragons" Server?
i think this is just an upscaling technique
read it says no upscaling
bru
It's literally an upscaler.
eypc
nope
ddr2 is crazy
guy was stick of bliliner scailing
made thing to do intergerscailing
and just keep adding things
mom was looking for a"clicky" wired office keyboard guy ar best buy said her nest bet was a gaming keyboard she freaked out at the price of a mechanical keyboard now i was laughing and said " welcome to my hell of a hobby"
if I put my integers on a scale I just get sad
now even has frame gen
just get a 20 year old one
the KB-0210 is nice one
when did that keyboard stop production
An excellent question for google
bodega babyyy
would you prefer a 9070xt with 2x8 or 3x8 power in a super tiny itx build?
does not matter
but ofc less cables is less cables
this was my thought too
doesn't matter at all
well
wat
cool pc
It's not slow either
Aw thank you
many make fun about a ddr3 system i got untill it beats the moden 8 core with fancy ddr4 in memory intesive workloads
its pain when xmp makes ram slower
okay next question is 2mm of length clearance too close for a gpu?
Why do people shill this bafoon again?
wait i like that Comedian
Ztt is not canadian
He’s too stupid to be a canadian
comedian " a person who seeks to entertain an audience by making them laugh. This might be through jokes or amusing situations, or acting foolishly (as in slapstick), or employing prop comedy. A comedian who addresses an audience directly is called a stand-up comedian. "
I misread you severely
I read it as canadian

Imagine the power going out…
Imagine not having a battery backup
i really should
I’m going to start investing in my cyber deck idk if I should spend $50 on a i7 8750 or $100 on a i7 8750 with a rtx 2070
i hate sleep
valid desktop layout? or does it look unorganised
just a small difference there
Yeah and I’m probably only going to have a 1080p screen
My only problem is I have zero idea how to 3d model lol
Skill issue
Tech by Matt on YouTube just used plex plastic stuff and drilled holes Mabye I can do that
not great tbh
Basically a laptop computer, but using HMD or Neural interface as main output device. Display is optional. OS should use elements of virtual reality for interaction with the computer.
Kinda is lol
i7 8750h is laptop?
how 😭
Yeah
its slower
Yep but it’s going in a handheld
the glasses you need for dis shit should not cost more than the hardware
8750H is the same chip as 8700
8700 has far higher clocks
see u gotta search for everything
Yeah but like $50 laptop motherboard going into a handheld
nope, i know what's in each for when i need to access something
$50 more for cpu that shoud not even be worth $100 vs other faster cpu
i think i have been watching John Oliver for the past like 10hrs+
😭
I’m struggling to find a battery for the system tho
Wait nvm
Motherboard is a super weird shape but it’s so cheap
Friggin Alienware
Why is this happening? I tried pushing a little bit down on the CPU so the pins are in, but it won’t go further and i don’t want to bend the pins
You have a bent pin somewhere
Get a razor and straighten it
Or return it if bought new
I got a all in one titan icue cooler and the pump is not working for some reason
I had it happen to my 1700
On the cpu?
Yeah probably hiding somewhere
Takes way to long to find it
cant happen on a air cooler
for a sec i thought you meant lga 1700
I wish I had that kind of cpu money
Why dose laptop ram cost so much omg
lga 1700 is dead aka its cheap used now
ddr4 stopped production
Already I thougt we had a few months
This is how the cpu looks in the mobo, any signs of a bent pin?
maybe the front?
war+t
Yeah that’s what it looks like your just going to have to dig lol
uuuuuuhhhhh
😭
Not even in the socket
Even if they break of when you bend them back it should still work
Worse that will happen is a rare blue screen every once in a week
I mean for the most part they are grounding pins
This is the same corner
not if you straighten them super carefully
o it was just the light, if all the pins look straight you can try and push the cpu into the socket
Maybe i'll try deskflow
i had to do that once after a am4 cpu stuck to the cooler like glue and getting it off i had to bend some pins
or maybe not since input director is working fine and I am not using linux right now
barrier was a buggy mess. and now dead
i mean deskflow oops
Lmfao just had to put some force in that corner, thanks lol!
Was gonna say, those pins looked straight asf
what the hell
xd
they gone
no
why was my message deleted
i did
wtf
it didn't go well
did you call poison control
why, just why
It was 2017
they cant read
alot of things says the doctor
what made you think eating laundry detergent was a good idea
i was in elementary school and very seceptiable to Internet trends
2017?
Yes
wait how old was i in 2017
im 16
oh i was in elementary school too
Christ
yeah
I'm old
20s?
Little higher

I switched career fields in 2017
ANOTHER 09 BABY hell yeah
no i'm not uh
as do i
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i'm 20 lol
MF U WERE NOT 8
i said 2017 was 8 years ago
learn to read apparently?
i plead dyslexic
oh, my bad
lmao ur good it was me being stupid
I guess the pump needed its own power cable lol
my friend pc passed down from his uncle had 3 pin ac power cord for his case fan
thought ts was the real myusernamesthis
no i am not
i REALLY hope those are dummy sticks
and i am not trying to impersonate him, it's just a coincidence
nostalgia
i've never heard of the guy until some guy told me a few years ago. maybe i should really change my username
lmfao good idea
Wanna know the dumbest thing of the iphone 16 series
People thinking the 16e is supposed to be a successor to the iphone se 
is it not?
honestly what is xr in apple line up?
like se is their cheaper model, xr seems to be their cheaper model too?
or was it like Iphone X SE
but they thought that looked weird so they just put IPhone XR
Why?
Iphone xr was latest hardware, but with cut down features
quad ddr5 is a quick way to lose out on a LOT of performance
Unless you’re using a workstation based platform*
What if they were ddr6?
Ddr6 aint a thing yet
AHHHHHHHHHH
Oh wait they are ddr5 lol
HEDT
well i still have my iphone xr lol
Hedt is dead
that would be worse
no
I wanna start collecting iphones
Rich people hobby
No
Old iphones can be gotten for cheap if you know how to properly repair them
well i am doomed i don't really know how to repair logic board
Most of those cheap asshats at those “we can do it cheaper” phone repair shops dont know what the hell they’re doing
yo i need some help
my pc is constantly buggin me and i dont know do i buy a new pc or upgrade?
i5-4460 3.2ghz 4cores <---- cpu makes lots of problems bc its shit and idk should i upgrade to mabey -> i7-4790K
rx 470 8gb or 4gb vram idk
b85m-d3h gigabyte motherboard
16gb ddr3 ram
? please help
They always strip screws, and don’t use new screws when re-assembling the phone. You need to use new screws or re-apply threadlocker when fixing a phone
make WHOLE NEW pc
huh why need new screw
None of the cpus listed supports windows 11
im on windows 10 and will stay on it
guy replaced my screen and not battery once, then had to wait a week to go back and my dad still paid him again but that time got a new battery, and to note my phone screen was in perfect condition to start with
apple phones have threadlocker on almost every screw
Loses regular support in October
for less than 2 months
ik but i can still stay on it
its not forced to upgrade
i think
i think that's quite a minor issue
there are larger issues at play than threadlocker
So you don't want security updates and will welcome viruses
its all cap and i have a anti virus
If you dont reapply it, you will find loose screws after a week
i didn't reapply it on my iphone xr battery swap. it has been fine
a anti virus can do a lot but once the OS is unsupported your just fucked also most tend to be as good as windows anyways
¯_(ツ)_/¯
but im tryna ask should i upgrade or buy new pc
Did you properly torque down the screws to spec?
The company won't update windows 10 versions of a antivirus to
no
it was old over 5 years ago
You need to buy new PC
Your phone is cooked
why
22nm too btw
yo, i got a sealed XG27AQDMG (oled 240hz) for €315, how did i do?
Chances are, it was resealed
eh, i did 2 battery replacement by now it has been fine
why do you think so?
i wouldn't trust the water resistance on it but it has been fine
Its not hard to re-seal an item
Send it to me and I’ll check for you
Nah, send it to me
Im the apple gay after all
Guy*
this ok for 840e Ryzen 5 5600, 16GB DDR4, 1TB SSD NVMe, nVidia GeForce RTX 5060 8GB
16gb ddr3 doing me fine
my monitor keeps freezing and shows a weird line of pixels at top every like minute or 2 anyone know what it is or fix? i already updated drivers and checked if it was fully plugged in
time for new monitor
noooo way
get a whole used PC
Try playing a game released in the last 5 years
seriously i bought this one not too long ago
also does nobody have a just keyboard at all, i do not know of any keyboards that cant type €
i tried finding it
Warranty
Dude
not sure if i had one
and by not to long i mean like a year or year and a half
looks legit to me
dude i tried alt 5 but it does nothing im just telling him shift 5 is %
how do you type the dollar sign
shift 4
Thats been opened
i need to see that keyboard
white shark commandso elite
too bad its a crappy asus product
how can you tell?
US layout in the EU?
i use US layout...
i have bound those to macro keys
aight, we'll see. i get to open the package for testing so i can see if there are any hours on the monitor
before paying
honestly i am willing to take my chances, the only reason i'm looking for a monitor is because i had 2 gigabyte Fo27Q3 die on me in less than a year
The 16e is an SE phone
It's the SE4
me when a product gets renamed to boost sales
the iphone se's aren't popular
they don't sell well
it's an SE phone just apple renamed it to boost sales since no one wants to own an SE phone
should have called it iphone 17 lite
Hey all I just built a new pc today and the download speeds are awfully slow. I installed the drivers but it didn’t seem to work
How slow we talkin?
Probably not your computers fault I bet
check speed test with your phone
why his phone
to see if its the internet or the pc
compare if its network or pc
maybe first check the pc
task manager link utilisation numbers can be whacky
use actual speedtest or iperf to local device preffered
martin i think someone who takes a picture of taskmanager for download speeds does not even know what a iperf is
Yeah i think it’s my internet….. LOL
yea das is internet
but to make sure your computer is directly plugged into the router
Yeah it’s ethernet
mesh can also get a ethernet cable out of it but does not mean it uses ethernet for internet
Is it possible for a GPU to cook itself
So im new to amd, should I "enable exp" ?
uh, what
I put a mild OC on my 7900xtx and now I’m not getting a signal from it
unless you messed with OC, i'd be surprised
reboot
how mild..
what did you change
I’ve been gaming on it all day no problem
oc to 5000
I left the room to go get water and I come back to a black screen and my fans at 100
you mean you put the slider to the max
o no your just fucking around
what did you change
Nothing

"I put a mild OC "
It is a dual bios card tho, can I just switch to the other bios and try to reboot?
thats what they all say
It really wasn’t
just set all the voltages to the max
I’ve never gotten any artifacts from it
Voltage was stock
Can I use windows event viewer to see the last crash?
wat
I’m asking if I can see if something caused it to black screen
That wasn’t the cause of the crash
so what was
I’ve been gaming on that overclock for weeks
so why make it seem like it was the problem 💔
Is there a way to troubleshoot the other bios
?
Is it like a bios flashback tool but for gpu bios
i need to find the best cooler at 63mm or less height
pcpartpicker
really hard to find cooling capacity on there
just get a 7800X3D and do not worry about it
pleas for the love of god do not buy a used 13th or 14th gen chip
the new 7800X3D is like 380$ or smn for 14900k kinda gaming performance
im looking at 9700x
Are you on am4 or am5
"really hard to find cooling capacity on there"
that cpu uses as much power as the 7800X3D 😐
well ok a tiny bit more but meh
65w tdp vs 120w tdp.. okay sure
Tried installing drivers onto the 2nd bios and this happened
also zen 4 vs zen 5, im not looking to buy old tech
and here you see why TDP never matters
zen 5%
@tidal geyser this is what OC i had applied
wtf
this is bone stock
2nd fan being circular just ruins it all
like I said very mild OC, so idk what happened
this is why we own spare thermalright fans!!
wtf even is the point of amd making their own safer better and just nicer OC program just to be ignored for something that has not actually gotten a stable version for 2 years
okay but what about 4k
is where it matters the least if you do not want to use upscaling
should I not use MSI afterburner anymore?
on a 5090
why would you even want to use it in the first place is the question
also modern OC does nothing, only power limit does even a small thing
to boost performance in game?
butwhy afterburner
amd has a built in one for adrenalin
4k on a 9070xt , native frames only, rare raytracing, probably set to low
if I only added +100mhz core and +100mhz mem why would it crash
8500G would probs be enough xd
aparently afterburner caused one of my games to crash even though I have no sort of OC, but it has been running in my background since I had my old 3070 lol.
one of the many reasons a good old clean slate of a windows reinstall can be good once in a while
Couldn't do more then an hour in LMU without it hard crashing, removing afterburner and anything related to afterburner resolved it.
xd
this I need to do lol, first step consolidate where I link my projects in premiere/avid/davinci since they're all spread out between 3 drives
they need to make a 9700x3d
you mean 9800X3D?
something that is already out
or do you mean a 7600X3D but zen 5
Just thinking about the programs I would need to reinstall gives me ptsd after the last two times lol.
ngl just get a 7600
I couldnt even boot into bios
and this is why you should
does it mean the OC bios is corrupt
i need more threads than that for my other uses
when windows decides to nuke itself or your boot drive dies welp GG
and those are
About that one of my spare systems got affected by that windows update recently.
Though not that bad since I didn't have anything on that ssd.
where is the 9800x3d on those charts?
fake
Afterburner glaze is insane
im doing some work with ai, and its spread across cpu and gpu
do you need XLA for it?
9700x is a heck of a lot better than the 1800x ive been living with
a 5 3600 is too
pro tip, you can reuse your cooler from am4 to am5 if it just uses the stock stuff
no i cant, new case, e atx down to itx
portal 2 runs like absolute crap fsr (it was fine like 5 months ago), my specs are ryzen 5 2600, RX 580 8GB and 32GB DDR4, i verified the files integrity an there were no issues
the drive its on is stable too
only portal?
why tf do u have 32gb ram and then a 2600 and a 580
💔
yep, for example: i can run RE:7 at a smooth constant 75 FPS on max settings
mines preowned, i uprgaded the ram, im 14 and unemployed so yeah aha
hold on, is there such thing as, too much FPS..?
a r5 3600 does not cost much more than the extra ram
yes
okay, lemme cap that 120 rq 😭
the menu is buttery smooth now, lemme go into a test chamber
IT WORKS
thanks thy wise @tidal geyser
it tells you what to do
sheesh, im glad i do my own checking. yall are crazy to pushing people to the 7800x3d unless they are exclusivly gaming. its like 5-10% worse in every other workload... and only 2% faster than a 9700x @ 4k gaming. Oh and its also like 40% more money
So I have a flash drive that has the windows 11 iso through ventoy
No
It shows me this screen before I get to do that
because you have to boot from the flash drive.
Userbenchmark?
@tidal geyser
Even screen protector companies call it the se4
I am booting from a flash drive through ventoy
@ebon marlin i literally work with apple devices for a living, im pretty sure i know what i’m talking about
no techpowerup charts that you referred me to
ok so dont use ventoy and just use the windows creation tool
Also no shit cache on top
I dunno man
And that was without upscaling too
can anyone help me flash a new bios onto my card
Wikipedia doesnt always mean the truth
No
Wikipedia is reliable often
Also, @ebon marlin the key-word is rumoured
are yall really beefing over who's right with apple device names
im trying CMD but im getting an error when trying to flash said good file onto the bad bios
What
The 16e is just a renamed SE product since SE products don't sell well since no one wants an SE
Se has previous gen hardware
Stop messing with it, you are going to manage to be fully brick the card
16e does not
the name has a space in it (navi 31.rom) do I use navi31.rom or navi_31.rom
If it were an se, it wouldnt have an a18 soc
The se is in no way even close to the 16e
Both iphone 14 and iphone se 3rd gen use A15
So does the 13
But iphone 13 and 14 also use a15
Fyi I think your flashing the good part
Iphone 14 used previous gen hardware too
I have the bios switched to the bad one
physical switch on the card when Im doing it
Are you using the GPU for display out?
How could it possibly be a bad vbios
People on their way to assume rumours to be true
I booted via the good bios
nvm youre right im dumb im trying to flash the good bios with the same file
Is the 16e a budget phone
No
Apple doesn't make budget phones
Was the se series a budget line
Apple may call it budget but a 430$ phone is not a budget phone
Anyways I'm going to sleep now have fun with ur Apple schizophrenia
very much is in today's environment
Not at all
I got a brand new current gen flagship phone for less than that
Twice in the span of 1-2 months
Oneplus 13R for 275€ brand new and Realme GT 7 Pro for 320€ brand new
Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and Snapdragon 8 Elite devices
Flagships
Flagship products are incredibly cheap if you expand ur view from only Samsung, Apple and Google
Minging battery life
Brand new condition not price
Eh brand new you can get the Realme GT 7 Pro for like 400-450€
A Snapdragon 8 Elite phone
That is a pretty big difference
Eh only 100€
It's also important to note as others might you know try and take you up on those claims
my friend got neo 10 for around 275 ish euro too
Solid phone but lacks alot with the cameras
yeah the camera is kind eh
i mean camera is good
but shutter speed on the slower side
If someone sees you claim brand new snapdragon 8 gen 3 phone for 275 euro they might try and go for that phone
I got my 8gen3 phone for 275€ brand new in box 
Why not you
Someone won it in a giveaway and didn't want the phone
Just half the price of it new
oh that's different...
over here you can buy it straight up from store
for 275 euro.
taken on neo 10
Unfortunately with no dedicated zoom lens the image quality quickly goes to poop
it's certainly better than my iphone xr
Is there a monitor that wont get horizontal lines that distort color after a lot of use?
😂 i just use cheap phone
iphone xr passed down from my parents
and i use another samsung a14 5g
XR is the worst out of the X's
Only X device which didn't come with an OLED screen
I own an XR too
Is there a monitor that wont get horizontal lines that distort color after a lot of use?
like this?
Fixed one up like 10hrs ago
honestly right
That might be the gpu
you would be surprised by how many people not even utilizing the telephoto lenses on thier phone
nope
checked on another monitor it works fine
and when i plug in cpu perhaps its still does that
what do you mean?
imma take a pic with my phone wait
Me with my Realme GT 7 Pro, Oneplus 12R, Oneplus 13R, iPhone XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 12 Pro Max, 2 S22 Ultra's, S23 Ultra and a Z Flip 5
samsung a14 5g
Also another iPhone 11 soon
dunno what's good, it's smooth enough ig...
for daily use it still lag sometimes but meh
some guy thought it was a gpu issue
im just asking is there a type of monitor that wont get those lines
like a monitor that has the longest life time
i had this monitor for a year
Rookie

This is just temporary stock
I repaired most of them and they are being sold currently

Laughs in iPhone 4, 2 iPhone 4s’s, iphone 5c, 2 iphone 6’s, 2 iPhone 7’s, iphone 12, and iphone 16 pro max.
This is just for my iphones, i have alot more phones
so can someone help?
I got an Acer Swift 14 with a Ryzen 7 7840U and an OLED 16:10 screen for 350€ lowkey contemplating on replacing my Huawei Matebook 14 with it which runs an i5 10210U and an MX350
christmas
Got the Huawei matebook for a little over 100€
Only 2 relevant phones 
Im pretty sure my 16 pro max has a faster gpu than that mx350 
Fixed a 15 Pro Max some time ago netted me a 300€ profit
Incorrectly fixed*
The mx350 is old as shit and barely uses any power
Doesn't it use gtx 700 or 800 series architecture
My a18 pro soc uses 12w
@ebon marlin do you use oem parts when fixing iphones?
hmm you use tailscale for management and cloudflare tunnel for public facing service?
So still shit, just costs more…
tailscale for internal access yeah and then cloudflared to avoid using a proxy manager
Costs more? Huh?
Well the main reason for them are hardware video encoding and stuff like cad, bit really not a gaming oriented card 🤷♀️
If its not oem, its shit
There's no difference
Nice joke
Ik it's still utter shit
In what way shit?
mx350 is terrible
Poopoo
For fhd video playback and other media related things its fine
use intel igpu mate
@ebon marlin as someone who works on iphones, and does (some) repairs, non oem parts have issues more often than not, and develop issues quite often
that is true yeah
I had ones in the gaming area in one of the dorms when i visited some stuff there, they used that laptop on a tv and a cranky htpc lol
Sometimes you get lucky, but the majority is shit
well yeah mx350 for htpc is fine
Its shit but not that bad
but igpu better for most stuff including tdp
I don't use those kinda parts
Yeha
so is a simple intel iris
You literally said you dont use oem parts
Honesty i dont know why i am justifying for it lmao
@ebon marlin Do you even have access to post repair camera calibration or display calibration?
I’ve had a gaming pc for 5 years, but this is my first time building one. Where do I plug all these fan cables into? The first picture shows the cables of the 3 fans at the top of the case. The second picture shows a little hub in the back with the other 3 preinstalled RGB fans plugged into. The 3rd picture shows some extra cables that I don’t know where to plug in. Can someone tell me where to plug all these cables into?
Iris xe or iris hd?
I buy from a very well reputable spare part store that is only for businesses they are also the same company who offer Samsung's self repair parts (2service)
xe
Xe is actually decent
Haven't had the need for them as they are precalibrated
Thats not how that works for iphones
I have a tigerlake laptop and the xe is pretty well
They run solidworks and thats what i need on that laptop :/
Usually you need to calibrate for true tone and other features but mine come precalibrated and have true tone and other features working as they should
yeah i use 10th gen iris plus
You need to calibrate the display after the repair, its part of the iphone repair process 🤦♂️
Its well for what it is
Core i5 14400F, 16GB DDR4, 1TB SSD NVMe, nVidia GeForce RTX 4060 8GB good specs for 900e?
I’m can get it for 600usd
Ah I thought you were talking about one of those calibration machines
Dedicated machines
you order the parts?
Are you buying new or used?
I mean I can do it but I don't bother attaching the IC chip to the new screen most of the time too much work for a cheap phone
new
There is no purpose for buying those new btw
@ebon marlin Iphones have a feature (for certified apple techs) where they calibrate the new display for the hardware, its not as simple as swapping an ic
You can easily do it but I don't bother with it
You transfer the IC chip to the new screen from the old screen and then you can calibrate the new screen
You need to be certified by apple to even calibrate the display (post-repair), its not just swapping an ic, every display is different
yo, $1500 usd budget gaming pc including monitor, any suggestions?
Ehh
so you think i should buy used?
Yes and dont get a 4060 get a 5060
Simple process but I can't be bothered to do soldering for that
then what should i get?
Or a 9060xt 16 gig
Just buy them used
