In a tech server??? 😭

#

I switched from a asrock b850 to msi b850 and a few things broke but it was mostly related to wireguard so if you don’t use that you won’t have an issue you can always use an uninstaller software to cleanup old drivers

#

You can always reinstall windows without wiping the drive just to verify files good way to make sure nothings broken

tidal geyser
#

this is your reminder to clean your laptop

tidal geyser
#

what

unique olive
fallen sky
#

earcup pads. As fans.

tidal geyser
#

is that also made of dust

that ain’t no dust

Wtf

tacit star

5800X, 6900 XT, 1440p, all maxed (FXAA/MSAA off, TAA medium)

I never saw 30 fps and I don't know how the game measured it

carmine yew
tidal geyser
#

minimum is well minimum

carmine yew
#

with an average of 80? That's not unreasonable for a minimum

tacit star
tidal geyser
#

THE lowest fps it saw

tacit star
#

60 at least

carmine yew
tidal geyser
tacit star
digital talon
tidal geyser
#

bet you used the steam fps counter to check fps

tacit star
#

Yesterday was the same

ivory mountain
# tacit star 60 at least

the framerate counter only updates at a set interval, you wont see if it hit 30 for like ~200 milliseconds if it only updates every ~500

tacit star
#

The FPS is constantly on screen during the benchmark

#

my PC has been stuck in a boot loop for 11 hours after using hone optimizer and restarting my PC, is their anything I can do to fix this?

tacit star
#

I am still not sure tho about the best AA settings. Especially TAA sharpening in game or the AMD control panel

tidal geyser
north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

clear cmos

#

what i said

north pulsar
#

how

digital talon
tidal geyser
# north pulsar how

well you take out the cmos battery and main battery if laptop then hold the power button for 10 sec and boom

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

good thing you backed em up since they were so important

#

as the pc could always lets say die

#

or a bad update could happen

north pulsar
#

where would that be

#

is it this?

tidal geyser
#

btw i said clear cmos since i thought it was stuck when starting but its when loading windows

#

wait show me your ram slots

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

also unplugg your pc from power

north pulsar
#

it was working ok before I restarted

tidal geyser
#

take out 3 sticks of ram

north pulsar
#

which 3

tidal geyser
#

what ever feels the most fun

north pulsar
#

only 8gb ram 😭

tidal geyser
#

but i suspect its just windows being sad

tacit star
#

Why does this stupid game always go back to borderless when I boot it? I set it to fullscreen but it goes borderless every time

tidal geyser
#

does it run well uh we do not worry about that

north pulsar
#

ok

north pulsar
#

@tidal geyser done

#

now what

#

start pc?

tidal geyser
#

ye

north pulsar
#

so plug it in?

tidal geyser
#

ye

north pulsar
#

sad ram

clear canyon
tidal geyser
#

if that does not work then well

north pulsar
#

press that?

tidal geyser
tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

cmos

#

ok it's turning on

tidal geyser
#

enter

north pulsar
#

still stuck

tidal geyser
#

windows fucked

delicate geode
#

Can someone help me rq idk how to change my PCIE GPU mode to gen 4 manually

north pulsar
#

bro what do I do

#

how can I reinstall and keep my files?

tidal geyser
#

you cant

delicate geode
#

Erm

north pulsar
#

😭

tidal geyser
#

get a windows usb and try the repair thing

delicate geode
#

That doesn’t sound good

north pulsar
#

put ram back in?

tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

ok

delicate geode
#

Troubleshooting to make sure it’s not messing with my pc I’m getting stutters on games in 1% lows

north pulsar
tidal geyser
tidal geyser
delicate geode
#

Wait is this c states @tidal geyser

delicate geode
tidal geyser
delicate geode
#

Should I disable c states to see if it helps anything

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

what gpu do you have

delicate geode
#

4080 super

tidal geyser
#

das a pcie 4 gpu

#

anyhow boot back into the pc and install and open hwinfo

delicate geode
#

But how do I change it to gen 4

tidal geyser
#

check what it is running at now

clear canyon
tidal geyser
#

yea

delicate geode
north pulsar
#

there's missing cables @tidal geyser

tidal geyser

#

yeah ssd is windoes

ivory mountain
tidal geyser
#

you are booting into windows but a bad update is why you are having issues

north pulsar
#

I also tried putting in this ssd and it would recognize it either

north pulsar
#

512gb more storage

tidal geyser
clear canyon
north pulsar
#

uhh idk

tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

how do I wipe it

tidal geyser
#

secure erase is the best way

north pulsar
#

what's that

tidal geyser
#

built into your bios

north pulsar
#

are you sure

tidal geyser
#

yes

north pulsar
#

it's hp

tidal geyser
#

i have a hp

#

i have many HPs

#

i have done it many times on many HPs

north pulsar
#

its a g5

tidal geyser
#

anyhow get a windows usb stick and try the repair option

#

wait or try to get into the recovery thing

#

hold the power button when you see that screen 3 times or hold what was it f2 while booting

limpid ivy
north pulsar
#

should I spam f2?

tidal geyser
#

hold shift

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

as a lot of mac

north pulsar
#

hold shift?

tidal geyser
#

yus

#

when the pc is turning on

north pulsar
#

ok

tidal geyser
#

use one of those laptops or desktops as a NAS and store important stuff on it

#

and then use another one of em and make a offiste server

north pulsar
#

good idea

#

server

tidal geyser
#

what cpu

limpid ivy
tidal geyser
#

i feel like a semi modern mini pc beats that thing

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

holding shift while its doing it?

north pulsar
#

ye

#

wait was I supposed to plug in the boot usb

tidal geyser
#

when it reboots spam escape

tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

ok

tidal geyser
north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

press f11

torpid carbon
#

is it bad having 1 stick of ram?

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

local

north pulsar
#

ok

tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

will this keep my data

tidal geyser
#

lets see

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

it should boot into the recovery environment

north pulsar
#

ik this screen

tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

I've wiped PCs with it

tidal geyser
#

you should not wipe PCs with it

north pulsar
tidal geyser
tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

system restore?

tidal geyser
#

many things to try

#

i was thinking more update but meh try it

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

was that before you updated it?

north pulsar
#

it was working I think at that time

tidal geyser
#

try it

north pulsar
#

should I do 12/13/25?

#

23*

#

?

tidal geyser
#

have you done much since then

north pulsar
#

uhh

tidal geyser
#

btw it does that before the update

north pulsar
#

yeah

#

so newest restore?

tidal geyser
#

i am pretty certain it does not wipe so might as well go with the latest

north pulsar
#

finish?

tidal geyser
#

yes

north pulsar
#

ok it's going

#

and after can you teach me the wipe ssd so I can use it?

pulsar root
#

Rtx 6060, 8gb or 12 gb?

north pulsar
#

that used to have an OS on it?

rigid fjord
tidal geyser
#

its as simple as go into that screen you went to then bios then go down on the storage stuff and find storage utility and press it and boom

north pulsar
#

please work

tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

it finished

pulsar root
#

What

tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO

finally

tidal geyser
rigid fjord
#

yup

tidal geyser
north pulsar
#

ok so how do I go back to bios?

rigid fjord

yus

north pulsar
#

wait I forgot to plug the SSD in

#

oopsir

tidal geyser

im saying should I shut off the PC to install the new SSD?

tidal geyser
#

well do not install it when its on

north pulsar
#

ok

#

so shut down or unplug

tidal geyser
#

both

north pulsar
#

.. ok

tidal geyser
#

also before you fuck around with anything maybe save the data that was so important

north pulsar
#

meh

#

donor ssd screw laptop found

tidal geyser
#

why do you have so many laptops but no DGPU

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

that looks like a egpu

north pulsar
#

for my laptop

#

do you think this is small enough for an ssd?

#

@tidal geyser

coarse radish
#

My keyboard and mouse have been like consistently disconnecting and reconnecting for a little while now. Does anyone know why this could be? Like they don’t turn off but I lose control for a second, like if I’m playing my latest keyboard press continues and stuff. Idk what’s causing this, nothing else is disconnecting so I don’t think it’s a hardware issue :/

north pulsar

@tidal geyser where is ssd

does it use an m.2 scree

tidal geyser
#

yes

since it is a m.2 device

north pulsar
#

is this good?

tidal geyser
#

i think so

#

yolo

north pulsar
#

ok bc I found it here

#

exterior screws on the inside 🙂

guyyyss please help with an odd case: I have really annoying case anyone up for some troubleshooting? ;d ;d I need advice. Here are pictures of the following configurations: Both sticks, Stick A, Stick B. You can see that wen both sticks are installed there is 8.1 GB hardware reserverd ??? I dont know what the reson is. And cant seem to find any explanation. Also you can see that I have set the ram speed to 2933 and tried 2666 since I am not sure if that motherboard officially supports 3200 an it is just not applied.I will be thankful if anyone have any suggestions. thanks and sorry if that is not the correct thread to ask.

heres the other then

north pulsar
#

how

tidal geyser
#

ask intel

north pulsar
#

it says 512 on it

tidal geyser
#

also 32GB optane

north pulsar
#

which is C drive bro

tidal geyser
#

both

north pulsar
#

how

#

that means it has 540gb?

pulsar obsidian
tidal geyser
#

data is stored on the NAND and the optane is used for caching

north pulsar
tidal geyser
#

think of optane like high end dram

north pulsar

how do i delete the rest of this?

@tidal geyser

#

is he trying to fry my hdd more?

pulsar obsidian
#

Because currently its a MBR disk which isnt supported by win 11

tidal geyser
#

convert it to a dynamic then uncovert it

north pulsar
#

ok

#

it was running windows server 2019 i think

tidal geyser
#

that is a external disk

pulsar obsidian
#

Fuck you windows 11

north pulsar
#

i converted to basic again

#

and the recovery and efi system partition still there

#

now what

tidal geyser
#

f

#

live with it

north pulsar
#

so should i remove the broken ssd with the pc on?

#

or do i have to shut it down again...

#

@tidal geyser

tidal geyser
#

FKN turn it off

north pulsar
#

😭

#

i dont wannaaa

tidal geyser

probs why its dead

north pulsar
#

ok

#

not me removing laptop ram while its on and getting the screams of the damned from my laptop

stray portal
#

how much faster is raid compared to if i just used a normal ssd

tidal geyser
#

raid does not change speeds

#

if you mean raid vs ahci

north pulsar
#

twisted roblox is best

stray portal
#

to double my speeds 🤑

tidal geyser
#

if just one SSD has issues bye bye

#

but considering sata vs a sn8100 nets you like a sec faster loading times at most yea noo

tidal geyser

#

Yeah

tidal geyser

what is that meant to do then

ivory mountain
cold skiff
#

Well most people have selotape but not always electrical tape

tidal geyser
#

its also conductive

fallen sky
tidal geyser
#

well more conductive than electrical tape

fallen sky
#

And no open RGB does not detect

cold skiff
#

It’s not conductive

tidal geyser
#

i do not trust it

untold crow
#

Isn’t this a bit too much

left dove
#

its plastic, its not conductive

cold skiff
#

It’s that it does not do well deflecting moisture or dust

untold crow

cold skiff
#

So in a bind, selotape works short term

untold crow

No I like fish tanks

#

Intake means forward right

tidal geyser

rn i have a 1070 and a i7-8700, what should i upgrade first for games like fortnite/valorant

cold skiff
#

Selotape works just as well as electrical tape if you keep the environment clean.

fallen sky
fallen sky
#

yes

cold skiff
untold crow
#

Idk why I’m trying to get something but there is an option that says reverse or intake

#

I mean forward

fallen sky
#

What

tidal geyser
#

one is specifically made for electronics and electricity the other not

static trout
cold skiff
#

It was true of selotape in the past however now a days.. it’s the same because they know people don’t buy electrical tape

tidal geyser

The hell

Man I’m enjoying my 16GB vram card and 6000 MHz DDR5 RAM

#

and 9200

snapdragon is fairly mediocre they have good performance but they also drain ur battery quick

dw we will get poco x8 pro or something for 2x the price

more silicon batteries, better prices, oh well they’re next to the factories

sometimes better phones and better prices

I watched this video and it chilled me.

An AI assistant.
A paper clip on a screen.
Calm voice.
Human faces going silent.
Jobs gone, not with cruelty, but with efficiency.

This video is a parody.
But what if one day, it isn’t?

What if decisions about livelihoods are reduced to:

metrics instead of mercy
optimization instead of understanding

regular fs just get release a bit later with like lil worse hardware

4090 costs like 2.5x more than a 3090 too

craggy cove
#

why no pro

tidal geyser

if ye got the money for a 5090 i think ye got the money to give yar significant other a gpu you already have

it’s still better than what samsung offrers tho

and 125 euros

i found a poco x6 pro for 65€, like 5 months old too

their low end is in their a series phones, their "high end" is their fe series phones

or well pre a55 ig

S series ultra to be specific

# rose stream That last part is why I'd say it's logical for keeping it really, especially wit...

Should've seen how many people came in here (and even over in another server I've been in for the longest time), asking about if it's "safe" to invest into a mining card that's been used extensively. With that kind of general mindset of used hardware customer base, you could get away with keeping something a while longer and then have better resale value on the fact alone that it's considered "lightly used". Lol.

also what’s up with this locking of android

craggy cove
#

the method:

steel umbra
#

you clearly own the phones and they like nah, we make it harder 4u

#

or na we disable it bc

#

our os beter and u shall not change

craggy cove
#

well partly cause of the china/western phone thing

#

but samsung uhhhh

rose stream

cause they dont want you to break shit? but its not like your warranty would even apply

who do we have left

but they choose the shittiest chips ever

especially the PD chip on mine

rose stream
# craggy cove motorola?

Moto's... Well, they do still use Snapdragons, though they also do use some Dimensities for lower-end models from what I've noticed.

craggy cove
#

their soc performance is very questionable relative to their prices

rose stream
#

Their camera and app selection quality has also been somewhat questionable for some time too.

craggy cove
#

their latest 750€-ish phone

rose stream
#

Then again, they haven't quite chased after flagship status as much anymore, so I'm guessing they just... Stopped caring after a while and sell their phones for whatever high-end price they prefer.

craggy cove
#

a 200€ poco x7 pro would beat this handily

#

they aim for that 300€ price range ig

#

going full flagship would be stupid

rose stream
#

For them it would be. They're mostly poised for budget, a category that right now is mostly dominated by Google with a runner up in Nothing from the looks of it.

google is eating rocks in the european market and nothing is trying to shoot their face off instead of their foot

EU trying to pass surveillance laws

craggy cove

if i close my eyes and ears maybe it will go away on its own

#

not that i could do anything even

steel umbra
#

the world never learns from mistakes and from actual thorough studies

craggy cove
#

the main problem is they have to pass it once

steel umbra
#

i don’t want EU to have spyware on my device that sends my pictures to some server that i may not even know what does

tidal geyser
steel umbra
#

you know i save my credentials at times on pics

craggy cove
#

some ai will flag your pictures of dessert as child po and you will be banned everywhere and the police will visit your door

#

like that one guy who needed to take pictures of their son for their doctor

#

and lost all their google pics

craggy cove
steel umbra
#

someone hacks those servers that process the pics and yk

craggy cove
#

surely a government wouldnt have lackluster security

steel umbra
#

yesss

tidal geyser
steel umbra
#

also many studies confirm that surveillance actually increases criminality as the people don’t feel safe and in return don’t trust the government and other people less as well

craggy cove
#

also i bought this hunk of junk for 140€

rose stream

technically untested and dusty but it came from a working pc and they offer a 14 day buy back period if something doesnt work

Ig patience is key after all

Dx12 is Microsoft’s graphics api, an engine would be something like unreal or frostbite

but yes yes its a api but talking about gpu it is feature level

well theres revisions

tidal geyser

like dx12 and dx12 ultimate

and cant play some modern games

as RT is built into the engine

Now for the moment of truth, I'll have to wait for the shaders
