#

#

😭

#

My keyboard is lighting up

#

But the pc isn't turning on

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:09 AM

#

No display?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

The rgb doesn't even turn on

#

Fans don't move anymore

#

When i push the power button i hear a tiny buzzing

#

For like 2 seconds

#

My keyboards still on tho

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:11 AM

#

Uhh

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:11 AM

#

Am i screwed

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:11 AM

#

Maybe not

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:11 AM

#

Did i just break $1600

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:11 AM

#

Not likely

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

A fan isn't 1600$ lol

#

Except a jet engine

#

God, great cooling, but a loud motherfucker

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

No my

#

Whole pc

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

Nah

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

Nothings budging

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

A fan not working doesn't mean your PC is fucked

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

Well it can't be the whole thing

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

And if it got fucked

#

You have warranty

#

:)

#

So you don't have to worry too much

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

..

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

Did you install the fans to the correct header as shown in the video

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:14 AM

#

Yessir

#

The fans spun

#

Everything was fine

#

And then like

#

A minute later

#

It all stopped

#

Now i hear a little "eee-EEE-eee" when i push the power button

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:15 AM

#

Well shit this could be anything

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:16 AM

#

Maybe has to do with the thermal paste?

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:16 AM

#

That was one thing that came to mind

#

Can't know for sure until you have some to replace it

#

I have no idea what could cause this buzzing sound though

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:19 AM

#

If you're hearing two beeps, then that means your RAM isn't working as it should. Three beeps that repeat after a pause when you turn on your computer indicate a problem with the system memory. However, if your PC is beeping continuously, then it simply means the processor is affected.

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:19 AM

#

No beeps at all

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:19 AM

#

Just like

#

Russian air raid siren?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:20 AM

#

I flip the switch, the keyboard turns on, i push the power button, real small whistling for like 1 second

#

And then nothing

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:20 AM

#

Huh

#

Yep

#

A computer usually makes a weird "whistle" sound if it has detected a problem with the temperature of your processor. This can come from an overheating issue caused by the absence of, or defect in, the CPU/ power supply fans. ... Sometimes, cables from inside your CPU might also be blocking the fan from working properly.

#

Temp

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:22 AM

#

So it must be improper contact with the coldplate

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:22 AM

#

Its barely even a sound tho

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:23 AM

#

You'll have to get new paste and re seat the cooler

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:23 AM

#

😭

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:23 AM

#

Whaaat?

#

Thermal paste is way cheap as hell lol

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:24 AM

#

Ye but

#

No pc tonight

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:24 AM

#

Everyone does it GWworkshopAkaShrug

#

You face the same thing other PC users got

#

Having to deal without PC

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:24 AM

#

Yeah I understand, should be no prob though

#

Arctic mx4 is what they ship with that cooler, you can get a proper tube for like 10 bucks or so

#

Give or take depending on retailer

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:27 AM

#

You could probably pick it up from a local market?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:27 AM

#

Obv you guys know better but according to google i may have "crushed the pins" on the cpu

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:27 AM

#

How?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:27 AM

#

Should i take it all off and check

#

Idfk

#

Bruh whyd i buy this

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

If it was crushed and stuff

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

My pc worked fine

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

Then it wouldn't be doing anything period

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

It can't hurt to check

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

True, go ahead

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

It isn't doing anything

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

It's making a whistle noise

#

Yeah?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

I might just be going crazy

#

Bc its really silent

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:29 AM

#

Check the CPU

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:29 AM

#

😭

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:29 AM

#

Cmon, if it's fucked, you always got warranty backing you up GWworkshopAkaShrug

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:30 AM

#

How could you crush the pins if you dropped it into the socket correctly?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:30 AM

#

Exactly

#

Im just

#

Tryna find the issue

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:30 AM

#

Are you sure nothing happens?

#

Like

#

Anything at all

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:31 AM

#

Ok at first

#

When i FIRST plugged it in

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:31 AM

#

So one question

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:31 AM

#

The fans spun, everything glowed. I plugged it in to my monitor

#

And nothing popped up

#

So i was like aight its cool

#

And then

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:32 AM

#

You did remove the sticker from the bottom of the cooler right?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:32 AM

#

Ofc

#

https://youtu.be/AK7qj3_b_UM

#

I did everythig

#

That did ^

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 5:32 AM

#

I remember hearing that some YouTube tech guy forgot to remove plastic cover GWpingKanyeLUL

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:33 AM

#

There might be

#

Some thermal paste

#

Left in the packet

#

Should i give it another clean

#

Then out whats left?

#

Put*

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:34 AM

#

Likely not enough

#

But I dunno how much you used, did you apply it like the video shows?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:35 AM

#

Yup

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Cause tbh it's easier just to add it on top of the cpu heat spreader

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Welp

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Like a pea sized blob

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Whatve i got to lose

#

Ima clean er off

#

Then put whats lefy

#

Left*

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

Check the cpu to make sure it isn't damaged

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

Sure

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

And also check that the fans are plugged into the header labeled cpu fan

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:38 AM

#

They are

#

Like i said before they both spun

#

Everything looked fine

vapid crypt Jan 26, 2020, 5:39 AM

#

One last thing, next time you screw in the cooler

#

Ensure you apply even pressure in a criss cross pattern

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 5:46 AM

#

K took it off

#

Squirted whatever was left

#

Onto the cpu

#

Bc the rest of the paste wasn't dry yet

#

Ok its all attached

#

Plugged in

#

Same thing

#

Motherboard flashes this time when i flick the switch

#

F it ima put the old one back

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

I guess that's better?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

Lemme see if it works with the old one

Oh then idk

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 6:04 AM

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 6:04 AM

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 6:20 AM

If not tho

#

Maybe i spilt a drop onto the mobo while cleaning the paste before?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 6:43 AM

The motherboard flashes once when i flip the switch on

#

My keyboard lights up when i push the power button

#

But thats it

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 6:44 AM

#

Do you have a code readout on the motherboard?

#

It's getting power so that's good

#

That means it working so far

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 6:44 AM

#

Takes off old CPU cooler
CPU is stuck onto it so he pulls it off
Pins seemed fine
Plugs in CPU, installing the new cooler
Not enough paste
Goes back to old cooler
Dunno what else

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 6:45 AM

#

What motherboard do you have Rice?

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 6:45 AM

Gigabyte boards are iffy like that

Gigabyte boards sucks

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 6:45 AM

That's what I heard from about too many people

No idea why though

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 6:46 AM

So how do i

Fix this

warped hedge Jan 26, 2020, 6:48 AM

#

huh

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 6:51 AM

#

@rancid kindle Ngl I'm kind of stumped

#

The only thing I can think of is the socket on the board might be damaged

#

if your CPU pins are okay

#

that or an overtightened cooler

#

which I dont think will be the issue

#

If you've not fooled with anything else

#

and made sure that your PSU cables and everything else is properly seated

#

that's the only issue I can currently think that it would be

median moon Jan 26, 2020, 6:55 AM

@abstract kite 🤗

Hm?

velvet hornet Jan 26, 2020, 9:18 AM

#

iv eheard of this thing called overclocking

#

but i have no idea what it means

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 9:19 AM

#

I'll try to explain this simply

thin kayak Jan 26, 2020, 9:19 AM

#

best way to explain, no chip is equal in performance, manufacture will get sued if it does not meet what they say it will due to false advertising, so they lowball their numbers. overclocking pushes your item to the max it can actually go

velvet hornet Jan 26, 2020, 9:20 AM

#

ohhh

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 9:20 AM

#

CPUs run at a designated frequency. The higher the number, the faster the processes.

A rough example would be if a CPU was running @ 4GHz, and another chip as @ 5Ghz, the 5Ghz chip would be faster

#

That is with the understanding that both chips are equal

#

in cores

velvet hornet Jan 26, 2020, 9:20 AM

#

so basically using your computer to its upper most limit

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 9:20 AM

#

threads

#

and architecture

#

Yes that's correct. High end overclocking does rely a bit on the silicon quality of the chip though

#

Yuhh dood

#

TL;DR

Overclocking a chip (provided you can cool it) will allow you to get faster/better performance

#

You're pushing more power, so it can go higher

velvet hornet Jan 26, 2020, 9:21 AM

#

wait doesnt it also harm the chip in a way?

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 9:22 AM

#

The lifespan degradation of the chip is negligible provided you can cool it

#

properly

#

Not sitting at like 95C lol

velvet hornet Jan 26, 2020, 9:22 AM

#

this is too much oof

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 9:22 AM

#

~~Even with a heavy overclock, most chips will last over 10 years~~

Correction: Electromitigation affects the chip over time, so your overclock will slowly diminish (be less) to prolong components’ lifespan over time.

velvet hornet Jan 26, 2020, 9:23 AM

Okay. I'll DM you the laptop so you can have it for reference.
With a laptop, you don't need to overclock. Simply put, you probably wont be able to.

@thin kayak To answer your previous question

#

I think it would be best to wait a few more months

#

and see what 2020 brings for tech

thin kayak Jan 26, 2020, 9:24 AM

few as in?

abstract kite Jan 26, 2020, 9:24 AM

Your 9600K and 900 Titan are still pretty good

#

Wait until the end of march

#

If you cant wait until then

#

then yes, we can make a new build

#

but a lot of the tech that's going to be release may have considerable performance jumps compared to what we have right now

Nvidia will be releasing Ampere

Even with a heavy overclock, most chips will last over 10 years

No. Electromigration it's called what overclockers fear

#

While it doesn't 'kill' a chip, it will over time it will use more and more volt to run at the given frequency. At one point the CPU needs so much volt to operate normally that it will use very aggressive voltages. THis may not kill the CPU but integrated components may get damaged (most often the IMC which is very sensitive)

#

Electromigration also has nothing to do with temps. E.g I put 1.6v on CPU and it's still 30° under full load electromigration will still kick in

#

Also to add: The smaller the size of transistors, the less volt is usually required. Devices that consume less volt are even more prune to be affected by electro migration.

Take an example of the i7 2600k/2500k which Lithography is 32nm. You can easily put 1.45 if not 1.5v (not sure it may be the upper limit) on the CPU.

Now take the 4th generation. A 4790k for example which Lithography is 22nm. You cannot put 1.45v or 1.5v on it, it will very quickly hurt the chip. Max. voltages I think are 1.425v. It's not much of a difference but for CPU it is

bronze spruce Jan 26, 2020, 12:28 PM

#

hey guys, cant seem to launch the game, something up with the server?

#

Nvm, sorted.

merry bay Jan 26, 2020, 12:29 PM

#

Electromigration isn't accelerated by temperatures directly, but for you needing to run at higher voltages to maintain the same frequencies, the temps rise as well. Eventually you're unable to cool it and have to downclock.

brisk badger Jan 26, 2020, 12:31 PM

#

yes. I was just correcting the above statement cause if someone starts overclocking with this in mind, he might wonder 2 years why the CPU wont work or does no longer work with the overclock he applied

#

generally you dont need to worry about temps. CPU have functions to prevent damage by high temps. But there is no protection from adding to much voltages to components

#

unless maybe you come up with the idea to give 12v to the cpu :p

merry bay Jan 26, 2020, 12:33 PM

#

Well, there is, but every single overclocking guide says to disable it or raise the limits to the max possible LUL

#

I don't blame them, because it can be really tedious deciding the precise limit for the wanted results

brisk badger Jan 26, 2020, 12:35 PM

#

Really? Why. it's not like you ever use such high voltages. Even extreme overclocking settings have for me always been in the limit of the mainboarfd without disabling the protection

#

todays OC guide are maybe a 1/10 in length compared to old OC guides 😄

merry bay Jan 26, 2020, 12:36 PM

#

I have current limits in mind

brisk badger Jan 26, 2020, 12:36 PM

#

i checked on my mobo, it allows me to input 1.7v without disabling. THat's adventurous haha

merry bay Jan 26, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

Talking out the top of my head was too vague. Not current, Power limits
Package Power Limit1 - TDP(Watts)
Defaults are under a hundred, and every guide I've ran into always says just go 9999.

No doubt this doesn't compare to older days when quite often OC'ing included modding hardware.

#

The whole topic of OC'ing was always a fascination, but would never dabble in it much myself because wouldn't forgive myself killing hardware over not so necessary or practical gains.

brisk badger Jan 26, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

Once upon a time we had the infamous FSB (Front Side Bus) and Northbridge.
It made overclocking a lot more "difficult" compared to now where it's basically just the multiplicator you play with. Hardware overclocking was fun but you are right very unforgiving when you do something wrong :p

How do i clean thermal paste off the motherboard and the cpu pins

solemn orchid Jan 26, 2020, 1:38 PM

ah shit

#

he's done it lads

#

well, first of all

#

use the purest alcohol you can possibly find

Oh boy

brisk badger Jan 26, 2020, 1:48 PM

don't clean the cpu pins if your cpu still works

I wonder if he actually followed the apply thermal paste to connector holy fuck

#

Remember kids, don't add thermal paste onto that at all GWomoGabSmile

📎 PleaseDontDoThis.mp4

#

Lemme fix that

brisk badger Jan 26, 2020, 1:51 PM

#

most thermal paste are not electrically conductive and thus it won't harm your CPU.
But not all thermal paste are non electrically conductive so you would have to find out about your paste exactly

#

LOL

fleet canopy Jan 26, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

Yeah, but I still hope he didn't even do this haha

#

He was kind of vague about it to me

#

Because he either didn't get the paste off without messing it up quite a bit

#

Or he followed this guide here

merry bay Jan 26, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

Hopefully it's just crusted bits falling off the old application into the socket holes or something preventing good pin contact.

#

can't even imagine how to clean that

rancid kindle Jan 26, 2020, 2:23 PM

I applied for a warranty replacement of my motherboard

But if its the cpu then that wouldn't help

strange briar Jan 26, 2020, 3:23 PM

#

@fleet canopy if you look closely at that video, that's not thermal paste

#

that's Hellmann's mayonnaise

brisk badger Jan 26, 2020, 3:25 PM

#

LGA's (Land Grid Arrays -> Intel) are usually easier to clean than PGA's (Pin Grid Arrays -> AMD)

#

but in any case it's very risky to bend pins.

#

can you make a photo of your saucy CPU / mainboard?

There was talk earlier about Ryzen 4000 possibly using DDR5; I don't think this will be the case. Uh the earliest I can see DDR5 coming into the consumer market is maybe next year or even the year after. We don't actually know when 4000 will be out, could be this year or early next year. Also its AMD, Ryzen 5000 will be on AM5 on 5nm using DDR5 maybe PCIe5 if that's ready, with a release date of May 5th phaWesker

You’re right.
However Ryzen 1000 was released in 2017. Ryzen 2000 was released in 2018. Ryzen 3000 was released in 2019.

AMD is using a “leapfrog” type of release to push better products quicker. It’s one of the factors that has allowed the company to quickly overpower Intel.

2080 Super is 700$ USD

Because waiting isn't worth it lol

Or 2080 Super

Good night

#

if anyone here has decent experience with boot protocol on windows/linux

#

please help me

fleet canopy Jan 27, 2020, 12:13 AM

#

As in how to do a boot, or did you not boot correctly?

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:14 AM

#

I cannot for the life of me get any distro of linux to dual boot with Win10

#

it either flashes a read error and freezes or goes black and refuses to post

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

#

Are you using the Grub Bootloader ?

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

#

I am not

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

#

....

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

#

I'm just booting from an iso I stuck on a USB stick I made in Rufus

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

#

Ohhh

#

Check that you're using Legacy Boot mode

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

#

it goes as far as the install screen then fucks off somewhere else

#

ohh shit, is that necessary?

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

#

For Linux Distros ?

#

Pretty much

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:16 AM

#

as in enable it in my bios?

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:16 AM

#

yeah

#

UFEI Boot mode is a bit funny with Linux Distros

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:16 AM

#

I

#

will try that

#

yeah, UFEI has not worked up to this point other than with debian

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:16 AM

#

What distro is it you're using ?

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:16 AM

#

and debian refused to remember that the partition I made for it existed

#

I'm trying with Ubuntu atm, but I really want to use solus

#

solus is one of them that just lets me select "install" or whatever then goes black

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:17 AM

#

Honestly I've never heard of Solus

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:17 AM

#

I almost wanna use a deb distro just because that's as far as I've gotten

#

solus is a GNOME distro

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

I would recommend just setting legacy boot mode in BIOS, then try LiveBoot Ubuntu off the USB

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

wait shit no, I'm using BUDGIE solus

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

If it works then you should be fine with the installation

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

aight

#

so to summarize

#

enable legacy boot

#

should I use UEFI?

hard crag Jan 27, 2020, 12:19 AM

#

No

solemn orchid Jan 27, 2020, 12:19 AM

#

what do I use to make the boot disk
