I’d have left it on its side, but that’s just me, that motherboard is prettier than the blocked card.

And you said your bin is bad. It’s not, 51 is really good

merry stirrup
#

mac is my biggest opp

why the fuck he got 012C on here it’s like it’s an entirely new platform

#

nanny state shit

shell void
#

can you disable cep on that?

merry stirrup
#

yeah surprisingly

#

it’s still really weird

#

7200 was failing stress and i nearly crashed out but then i locked in and it was just cpu settings

shell void
#

ive never tried anything newer than 0x129

#

First impressions? @merry stirrup

shell void
merry stirrup
#

so you don’t deal with a rats nest

topaz veldt
#

Yup do they chain?

merry stirrup
#

you just daisy chain them together and plug in an extension to the board

topaz veldt
#

Yup cool

merry stirrup
#

yep

topaz veldt
#

That's how LF3 is

merry stirrup
#

top cover thing is magnetic as expected

topaz veldt
#

How is pump noise

#

And fan noise

merry stirrup
#

let’s see

pure garnet
#

rgb topper?

merry stirrup
merry stirrup
pure garnet
#

ah

merry stirrup
pure garnet
#

my bum model (i wanted the rgbless one) is a solid piece of plastic

merry stirrup
#

to hear the pump

merry stirrup
pure garnet
#

i can hear the pump if i crank it but it's still way quiter than the lf3 pro

shell void
#

i like the booting noise that comes with a case full of high rpm fans

#

they scream up to max rpm while posting and then calm down

pure garnet
#

half the time my tomahawk doesn't even spin the fans till it posts

#

maybe my board is slightly cooked

merry stirrup
#

okay it seems high speeds don’t fail yc instantly anymore

shell void
#

you have the platinum mount rn do not undo it

merry stirrup
#

note to self
avx guardband voltage = 0

pure garnet
merry stirrup
shell void
merry stirrup
#

i gotta let it marinate before i jinx it tho

shell void
#

and then when it's starting to post it spikes to max rpm for a sec

pure garnet
#

i cleaned my 7800x3d off and it’s not brunt or anything

#

so i think it’s just degraded

#

and not like, a victim of explosion

merry stirrup
#

incredible

#

the dead 7800x3d

pure garnet
#

maybe if it’s stable with a positive co offset i’ll give it to my sister fr

merry stirrup
#

fr worth it

pure garnet
#

she plays basically nothing

merry stirrup
#

leave her with the igpu

shell void
#

3d cache is essential for sims 3 at 60fps

pure garnet
merry stirrup
#

LOL

#

i also think my chip is sa bugged

#

which is just a massive L

#

no sauce saves that

pure garnet
#

my new chips boots 8000 at 1.35 vddio

#

so if i got the mpower i could probably do 8400

merry stirrup
#

clearly

shell void
#

see if u can post 8000 with 0.8vsoc

pure garnet
#

the 78 didn’t even post reliably at 1.45v every time so

merry stirrup
#

8200 looks like a no post gotta fuck with the resistances

#

we’re gonna see if lucky mode will clutch up

#

lol it actually mightve

pure garnet
#

tf is lucky mode

#

does the dragon come and bless your timings

merry stirrup
#

that’s basically it yeah

#

it’s random termination and other training things

pure garnet
#

i think the termination timings are diff on the new cpu but i might be crazy

merry stirrup
#

it just says “may help with overclocking” thanks bro

shell void

we have asus dimmfit at home

it may be terrible and unorganized and give no info but i remember it and thays the main point

shell void
#

period

merry stirrup
#

i have incredible news

pure garnet
#

did lucky the dragon lock in

merry stirrup
#

8000 did not fail yc instantly so far

merry stirrup
#

none of the lucky modes worked i gave up

#

mpower needs manual resistances i knew what i was getting into

shell void
#

memory tuning got too easy so bro found a way to get even more manual

merry stirrup
#

well if i’m gonna get paid to do it in down time may as well min max

topaz veldt

should i buy a 5080 Prime for my Terra

Almost all phones are shit for repair. It's not just apple

This is why right to repair is a thing

So I just noticed my CPU says its been up for 33 days. How come I shut off the PC and then the PSU, try to drain the power by powering on while the psu is off, and let it sit for a bit. And it still says 33 days 2hrs. CMOS battery?

frank zealot
#

What

fervent scaffold
#

My cpu says 33 days 2 hours of up time

frank zealot
#

Do you mean task manager?

fervent scaffold
#

As far as im aware that means it hasnt actually been powered off for 33 days

fervent scaffold
#

In task manager it says that

#

Under cpu

#

So im just dumb?

frank zealot
#

Turn off fast startup, or restart your pc

#

Or both

fervent scaffold
#

Does it actually mean anything tho

#

Like it being up for 33 days

frank zealot
#

Nothing really important

fervent scaffold
#

Ok because I attempted like a hard reset in a sense and it still said that

frank zealot
#

Restart your pc. NOT SHUTDOWN

fervent scaffold
#

I did

#

Ok yeah that solved it lmao

Thank you haha

Any ideas here?

Fixed ram, drivers reseat everything, checked temps, check connectors, checked bios switches, check event logs, fixed those. And yet, I still crash when I try to boot up space marine 2 or Titanfall 2, an 11 year old game, has to have model textures set lower or wifi will completely disconnect or the PC crashes.

#

Parts new, not even a year old except the motherboard which is 2 years old and used at that. But I doubt that's the issue. Also Ive done a factory reset to completely set everything to normal. Still crashes. Worse now in fact.

Oka so am not sure if this will work but to cool the 10980xe , i decided to get a Artic cooler 420 aio, now the mounting it comes with id for am4/5 ,lga 1700, now you think its possible to buy a a lga 2066 mounting bracket for it?

and arctic doesn't sell a kit to do so that they advertise on their site

Guys, I am going to use the "sign-in with local account instead" feature, that'll obviously sign me out of my current ms account, end result would be, me being signed out of my ms account, using only one account in my pc, which would be the new local account i created

So there would be 2 user folders, the old ms one and new local one

I have no problem in having 2 user folders, I just want to know if there is a way to keep using my old user folder for everything even if it creates a new one

I can live with having 2 doc/download/appdata and other user folders, I will just pin the one's im using

but having 2 duplicates (one having all my old data and one containing any new one created from that point on) at the same time is what I want to avoid

Manually transferring everything to the new local user folder would disrupt all my shortcuts, paths already saved to lead to stuff inside my old user folder and some scripts too, thats why i don't want to touch the old user folder and have it be the main one it writes to even after switching to a local account

So is there ANY possible workaround for this?

sorry that happened and i wish you luck

possibly. Not guaranteed because it doesn't power on even when disconnected, but maybe it requires CMOS to be connected to power on. Whatever, it is 1 euro and a bit for one piece (i need one for another mini PC anyway), and few days of wait. Worst case scenario i will be at same spot as i am now

# sharp heart so a drained cmos is causing this?

drained CMOS battery causing power on issues is not odd, it is very common (the battery had only 0.8-1.1V, so that is dead for sure). Why the mini PC won't power on without any CMOS is a good question which i can't answer, but let's hope it is really just a bad design which somehow depends on the CMOS battery being connected.

edgy laurel
#

i could see that^

shell void
# topaz veldt tldr?

the same stuff that we’ve known; 9800x3d usually has higher averages, but it dips harder in intense moments or when loading new world data

green marsh
#

with power adapter connected, if i connect ethernet cable the ethernet ports lights are blinking. With no power they are not blinking. So i really hope it is just some damn stupid design flaw requiring a fully charged CMOS battery for the mini PC to work.

At least my Z87X-UD3H and dual i226-v setup gets some use LOL

Do you guys with secondary Displayport monitors also have issues of the BIOS having a mind of its own on where it wants to display?

shell void

when i had a second monitor plugged in the uefi always went to the second monitor, and it often didn’t render correctly

edgy laurel
#

If I unplug my secondary DP display before rebooting itll work on the C2 every time, of course. If I don't, its a 50/50 on if it will or go to my secondary.. which is vertical

that was with the 5070Ti, i’ve never tried multi monitor on the 5090

HDMI.. second class citizen as far as PC's are concerned. The system level just doesn't like prioritizing it. It will almost always push to DP first

can gpus turn the tv on with cec

#

my lg tv always blacks out after i update my drivers and i have to power cycle it

edgy laurel
#

oh, thats annoying. mine goes black like most monitors do and you hear the hardware disconnect tone, but it comes back like expected

#

replugging the hdmi doesn’t fix it, and nothing will display until i unplug the tv from my UPS

#

can’t even turn it off with the remote xd

#

it happens every time i update drivers

edgy laurel
#

ffs, glad I don't have that issue

#

sometimes I'll come home and turn the TV on and wake up my PC and get nothing, just the no input wallpapers

#

i panic before realizing the input switched

#

and I never change the input

I kinda wish gpu manufacturers would enable more hdmi cec features

that would be nice

This desire to use linux sounds like its coming from you read something or watched something that made it sound like its better for your needs. However you're indicating you don't know the first thing about it so how can you know that?
