#

Ok so unless I have to really torque it down I can physically tighten it anymore the screws don’t go any further

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:32 AM

#

yeah don't tighten it more

#

try new thermal paste

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:32 AM

#

Ok

#

As a last resort I’m gonna take the cooler off and reapply it but if that don’t work then new thermal paste it is

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:33 AM

#

you shouldnt reapply without reapplying thermal pastw

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:34 AM

#

Oh ok

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:35 AM

#

if youre willing to spend more money on a cooler it wouldnt hurt

#

but not needed

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:37 AM

#

Yea I knew that the stock cooler wouldn’t give me much past stock performance so no overclocking

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:37 AM

#

yeah

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:39 AM

#

Idk if it would be a problem but could xmp at 3000 MHz be a problem

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:40 AM

#

Possibly

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:40 AM

#

Cause I enabled it cause I hear that ryzen and especially the igpu likes fast ram

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:40 AM

#

but is it the XMP profile?

#

Itt does, run it at stock settings if you want

#

but its also not good for the cpu if it keeps shutting off

#

does your case have good enough airflow?

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:41 AM

#

Maybe

#

And I just put on the only other profile in the bios for 3000mhz because I knew my ram was 3000mhz

#

As top air flow

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:42 AM

#

I don't think ram should be an issue

#

I think if its getting to 60C in a few seconds heat is the issue

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:43 AM

#

That’s just weird cause it ran fine the drivers were crashing

#

But then problems just got worse with time

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:43 AM

#

Oh it got worse?

#

hmm

#

I dunno, I still think it might be heat

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:44 AM

#

Yea before it’s was just drivers crashing

#

Probably

#

I’ll just get the thermal paste and if problems persist than the problem might be hardware

#

Also what’s your recommendation for thermal paste

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:48 AM

#

arctic mx-4 is good and chjeap

#

but I am not 100% aure

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:52 AM

#

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LF66ZSV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_TI89FbTBF7KZJ?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 here is some that I found

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:55 AM

#

this ones cheaper

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:56 AM

#

Also here is my case airflow just so you can see

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:56 AM

#

yeah mx-4 is goods

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:56 AM

#

📎 video0.mov

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 2:56 AM

#

airflow is fine or should be

#

shouldnt be getting to 60 instantly

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 2:57 AM

#

Yea

shy forge Jan 8, 2021, 3:01 AM

#

when will the 3080s be available in bigger quantities and will the prices spike on them

solemn panther Jan 8, 2021, 3:03 AM

#

Hahahhaha

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:03 AM

#

possibly around march

solemn panther Jan 8, 2021, 3:03 AM

#

shy forge when will the 3080s be available in bigger quantities and will the prices spike ...

You're going to wait a few more months

stone prairie Jan 8, 2021, 3:04 AM

#

shy forge when will the 3080s be available in bigger quantities and will the prices spike ...

prob late 2021

#

if ur lucky

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:04 AM

#

So I’m gonna run another 5 minute OCCT stress test and see how it does and/or if it even finishes

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:04 AM

#

alr

feral sinew Jan 8, 2021, 3:12 AM

#

is it weird that my pc is blowing heat out the side of my computer?

#

it makes my legs hot man

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:13 AM

#

its fine

#

side or top is the target

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:24 AM

#

So it crashed while Doing the test again

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:26 AM

#

were temps hot?

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:26 AM

#

I was eating while it ran so idk

#

But it’s weird

#

I looking at it doing it right now and the cpu is at 67 degrees but the actual SOC is at 54 under full load and gpu temps are at 39

#

Also what is AUXTIN1 2 and 3

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:32 AM

#

thats the psu ttemps, ignore it

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:32 AM

#

Ok those are at 112 degrees is that normal

#

According to occt

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:32 AM

#

thats not a concern, its innacurate too most of the time

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:32 AM

#

Ah ok

#

Also part way through the test the cpu not the soc is Now at 41 degrees

#

I don’t think it’s thermal throttling cause it’s still at 4ghz

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:36 AM

#

hmmm then its not, you reinstalled drivers rightA?

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:36 AM

#

Multiple times yes

#

And I reinstalled windows once

#

It’s not crashing though which is good

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

at this point it might be a mobo issue

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:37 AM

#

And the test completed with no errors

#

Yes it might be the temp sensor

#

Tripping the thermal shutdown

#

Ok I’m going to run another test with large data set and steady load turned off cause that’s what was crashing before

#

Almost forgot to mention I took the side panel

#

Just to see if that was a problem

#

Test completed no errors no crash minus the driver crashing a few times but the temps didn’t decrease like last time

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:48 AM

#

the driver shoiuldnt be craasshing

#

and the psu sensor shouldnt matter

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:48 AM

#

Yea idk

#

Driver crashes randomly and a lot when under load

#

I’m gonna run 2 more tests to see what happens

#

If they succeed then it might me the side panel cause after I removed that it just started working

#

Temp sensor seems fine

#

Wait a minute

#

When the driver crashed or I though it did just now crashed realized that the Radeon software wasn’t even open

#

I’m almost wondering if the driver is crashing and that’s cause the reboot

#

Idk

#

Second test worked fine

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 3:57 AM

#

I reaslly dunno anymore, sorry

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 3:57 AM

#

It’s ok I’m still stumped

#

So the host application just crashed again

#

i have a small feeling its the AMD driver

#

just cause thats the one that seems to have the most problems

inland raven Jan 8, 2021, 6:02 AM

#

hey guys

#

i’m thinking of selling my rtx 2070 for a 3060 ti is it worth it?

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:03 AM

#

depends

inland raven Jan 8, 2021, 6:04 AM

#

i’m getting it retail

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:04 AM

#

depends on how much you can you sell the 2070 for and if you can get a 3060 ti in stock
plus...eh, i would stick with 2070 for a few years instead.

inland raven Jan 8, 2021, 6:04 AM

#

and selling my 2070

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:04 AM

#

ah

inland raven Jan 8, 2021, 6:04 AM

#

i’m getting 450 cad for my 2070

#

the 3060 ti is 550 cad

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:04 AM

#

nice.

#

thats worth then.

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:05 AM

#

@lone pond do you mind trying to help me with my cpu/gpu

inland raven Jan 8, 2021, 6:05 AM

#

it’s the evga 3060ti so it’s the smallest gpu is that fine ?

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:05 AM

#

you can't go wrong with EVGA

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:05 AM

#

jaunty mango <@456226577798135808> do you mind trying to help me with my cpu/gpu

sure.

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:06 AM

#

so ive had many problems with my ryzen 5 3400g in relation to the amd drivers

#

they seem to crash every so often

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:06 AM

#

have you tried to update it?

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:06 AM

#

im on the lastest

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:06 AM

#

welp...

#

there is only two things you can do

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:07 AM

#

and my computer reboots randomly sometimes

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:07 AM

#

rollback to the version you was in
or stay on latest

#

amd drivers are known for begin buggy and problematic

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:07 AM

#

thats the problem i literally just got most of my parts so ther is no rolling back

#

unless i install a older version of the radeon software

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:08 AM

#

rollback as
rollback the drivers

#

like go back to the drivers you were in or install older drivers

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:08 AM

#

yea

#

but also when i was stress testing it for troubleshooting it goes up to like 60 degrees Celsius

#

so thought it was over heating

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:10 AM

#

60c is not overheating

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:10 AM

#

idk ive been ripping my hair out over this all day

#

i know

#

but one of the guys i talked to said it shooting up like that wasnt normal

#

and that was the only explanation for the sudden and random reboots

gritty notch Jan 8, 2021, 6:11 AM

#

just be aware theres a lot of idiots who think they know about pc stuff

#

and that you should never trust one single person unless multiple people back them up

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:12 AM

#

you can scroll up in this channel the back and forth messages

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:12 AM

#

gritty notch just be aware theres a lot of idiots who think they know about pc stuff

~~like me~~

#

eh...amd drivers tho, aslong you it does not go to 90c or over it under stress
you should be fine

#

there is also the fan curve

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:14 AM

#

yea but it still crashes randomly and reboots sometimes

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:14 AM

#

have you tried rollback the drivers?

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:14 AM

#

i saw that in my mother board settings

#

not yet

#

i will though

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:14 AM

#

alright

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:15 AM

#

gimme sec i gotta go DDU

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:15 AM

#

btw, what fan is it?

#

stock amd cooler?

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:15 AM

#

yes

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:16 AM

#

ah

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:17 AM

#

aight to safe mode i go

umbral briar Jan 8, 2021, 6:18 AM

#

@gritty notch well i told my coworkers and friends about the better performance of the 3080s and 3090s

#

and we managed to flood the market with quadro rtxes

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:19 AM

#

nice.

gritty notch Jan 8, 2021, 6:19 AM

#

lol niceeeeeee

umbral briar Jan 8, 2021, 6:19 AM

umbral briar Jan 8, 2021, 6:20 AM

#

and a few stores ran out of rtx 3080 and 3090 stocks

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:20 AM

#

DDU successful rebooting

umbral briar Jan 8, 2021, 6:21 AM

#

they all sold them at the same msrp of the rtx 3090

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:23 AM

#

how far should i rollback the drivers

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:25 AM

#

jaunty mango how far should i rollback the drivers

🤷

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:25 AM

#

i can go as far back as 20.2.2

lone pond Jan 8, 2021, 6:26 AM

#

just try the version some versions

#

and see if the issue continues

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:26 AM

#

ok

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:42 AM

#

well based on very limited testing it looks like issues have gone away i need more testing but its almost 11 for so i need sleep

hey guys kinda new to building pcs. Im interested in buying an ASUS B450-F but im not sure if it's fully compatible with my 5600x. any thoughts?

#

yeah, that was my concern. Can i update the bios without a cpu?

#

thanks mate

#

i think i might just try to update the bios using a usb

#

ive heard that's possible but havent looked into it too much

gritty notch Jan 8, 2021, 9:26 AM

that is only with bios flashback

grizzled nimbus Jan 8, 2021, 9:38 AM

You may need a BIOS update but after thst it’ll be fully compatible

#

Your motherboard does have Q-Flash meaning you’ll be able to BIOS update though with only the motherboard, a power supply, and USB

@crisp ocean last night i rolled back the driver to 20.9.1 and all my problems are fixed which is interesting

#

minus it going up to 60

#

but @lone pond said that wasnt a problem so i guess it works just fine now

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 6:54 PM

#

jeez thats crazy, glad you got it fiugred out

#

60 isnt an issue

#

its just i thought it was overheating

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:54 PM

#

yea

#

but been using it for couple hours no

#

no issue

#

guess it was just a crappy driver

crisp ocean Jan 8, 2021, 6:56 PM

thats good, and yeah

jaunty mango Jan 8, 2021, 6:56 PM

the GTX 1660 is a higher end version of the GTX 1060 but it does not feature Ray Tracing and with the current INSANE pricing it is not worth buying.. the GTX 1660 super was priced ,accordingly, at around $230 but now they are way to costly. I would wait for the prices to go back to reasonable before I would buy one

I am waiting to nab an RTX 3070 when they go back to $489 or less

then i shall stick with my ati 5700X and vega 56 until the prices get reasonable

i nabbed the Asrock vega 56 for $250 when they were super reasonable and the Asrock vega 56 does some impressive graphics with the right tweaking. the ATI 5700X is a great card for great 1440 gaming and is easily playable at 4k

1080ti?

#

How much would thag go used atm?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 6:16 PM

#

Probs $600

#

market is whack

#

Should be $300 or less

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 6:20 PM

#

400 good tho?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 6:24 PM

#

Not imo. 1080TI old, probs needs repasted

rancid flare Jan 9, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

I have a problem

#

I have a horrible graphics card and I want to play games and not get yelled cuz of how bad I am

#

But everything is choppy. I have a budget of 250

#

What should I get

round crown Jan 9, 2021, 6:42 PM

#

Try to find a 1080ti

rancid flare Jan 9, 2021, 6:45 PM

#

How much are they

round crown Jan 9, 2021, 6:46 PM

#

Used is probably around $250

#

If u manage to find one

brisk flame Jan 9, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

probably more like 350, but now they go for significantly more

#

cheapest one i could find on ebay

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 6:56 PM

Ill see if this guy will bargain on offerup

rancid flare Jan 9, 2021, 6:57 PM

#

Hmmm

#

Is it bud only?

#

Bid?

#

I can’t really trust eBay...

brisk flame Jan 9, 2021, 7:00 PM

#

the 1080ti isnt worth 510 anyway

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 7:01 PM

#

It's buy only

#

Offerup doesn't have bids

#

A solid price and then you talk to the person to see if you can negotiate

Hello All! I was told to ask for graphics card help in here 😁

#

Looking to upgrade from a GTX 1060

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

Please go back to build chat

#

Your CPU needs an upgrade first I think

#

The R3 1200 is rather weak

#

I'd suggest a CPU or CPU/motherboard upgrade fist

#

*first

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:06 PM

#

Round and round I go 😁

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:06 PM

#

actually

#

you left before we said it's fine to stay

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:07 PM

#

If you want to DM me what you would recommend that would be helpful as well. I’m open to all suggestions

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:07 PM

#

budget?

#

Also need to know exactly what motherboard you have

cerulean rover Jan 9, 2021, 7:07 PM

#

(something like hwinfo64 will tell you motherboard)

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:14 PM

#

Motherboard: ASRock A320M AM4 mATX

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:17 PM

#

What kind of budget are we working with?

#

The 1060 is still a decent card TBH

#

For 1080p gaming

#

Well, maybe not the 3 GB but still, the other stuff could use a boost also

#

unfortunately, the ram will need a boost as well. 2400 is kind of slow. I'd recommend selling your old parts to get some money back

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:19 PM

#

I guess that will depend on what I spend building another gaming PC. Right now I have one quoted at $1400-1500. So I wouldn’t spend a ton on this one, maybe $500?

#

The computer has 2 16gb sticks now at 3000

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:20 PM

#

Ah

#

$500

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:20 PM

#

I mainly work with software side of things, so build specs aren’t my specialty and I get lost I’ll admit

inland hound Jan 9, 2021, 7:20 PM

#

stone stratus The computer has 2 16gb sticks now at 3000

If it's Intel then thats great but a bit slow for Ryzen

#

for gaming, that is

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:20 PM

#

Not for an R3 1200

inland hound Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

R3 1200?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

yes

inland hound Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

Just joined the convo

#

sorry

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

Which is why we are upgrading the CPU

inland hound Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

...to a 5600?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

I woulld suggest a 3600 right now

#

less than $200

inland hound Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

yeah true

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

and a new GPU

#

with the rest, whatever they can find

inland hound Jan 9, 2021, 7:21 PM

#

What GPU tho? whats the budget?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:22 PM

#

As in, right now because https://www.newegg.com/amd-ryzen-5-3600/p/N82E16819113569

#

$500 for new parts

inland hound Jan 9, 2021, 7:22 PM

#

oof

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:22 PM

#

SO, 3600 CPU and whatever GPU they can find

#

@stone stratus https://www.newegg.com/amd-ryzen-5-3600/p/N82E16819113569

#

I'd snag that now before it goes out of stock

#

HUGE boost

#

And then wait for a GPU to come in stock

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

Thank you, that’s very helpful

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

Be sure to update your BIOS first

#

before you install the CPU

#

Graphics card market right now is absolutely terrible

#

With used cards going for new prices

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

I will definitely have to YouTube that haha

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

New products announced on Monday also

#

So it would be worth to wait for a graphics card anyway

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

Yes I heard a lot is out of stock right now

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:25 PM

#

yeah and the used cards are going for insane money

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:25 PM

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JFXm7X

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:25 PM

#

The CPU alone will be a good boost

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:25 PM

#

Here is the build someone put together for me to keep it under my budget

#

I have a guy a few hours away who can get the parts cheap and build it out. However he can’t get that graphics card

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:25 PM

#

That's actually good if you want a whole new machine

#

but you could use that CPU in your current board also

#

and just do the GPU later. It's not ideal because of the RAM speeds but it would work well

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:26 PM

#

That’s why I don’t want to spend a fortune upgrading this one. It won’t be used as much. Just looking for minor upgrades to make it acceptable for Fortnite/Warzone

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:26 PM

#

So

#

get CPU now and use it in that one

#

😉

#

later

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:28 PM

#

That’s a good plan! What increased performance will I see with the upgraded chip? $200 is quite a deal

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:28 PM

#

Probs more FPS to be honest

#

Even with a 1060

stone stratus Jan 9, 2021, 7:28 PM

#

Ok that is ideal

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 7:49 PM

#

Hey @crisp ocean so my driver crashes are gone but now im having directX issues and the very occaisanal bsod

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:50 PM

#

WDYm DirectX issues?

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 7:51 PM

#

specifcly warzone at all low settings will crash upon trying to load a game up and directX will say unrecoverable error

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:51 PM

#

What is the exact error, you do have a picture?

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 7:52 PM

#

lemme go recreate the error

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:52 PM

#

Because it sounds like the GPU is overclocked and it's giving you a lost D3D device error

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 7:52 PM

#

gpu isnt overclocked

#

idk how to do that5

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:53 PM

#

What GPU?

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 7:53 PM

#

same radeon vega 11 from before

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 7:53 PM

#

Oh the onboard?

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 7:55 PM

#

yep

#

when researching for which apu i should get even my original pick the ryzen 3 3200g could run warzone at low settings

#

ok so maybe its not a directX error cause this is whats happening now battle.net is in this weird wacked out state

And it’s msrp

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:01 PM

#

Tariffs suck

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:01 PM

#

also another thing just before it crashed the graphics go all weird then it freezes and then kicks me back to the desktop with battle.net like that

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:02 PM

#

I mean technically the Vega 8 can run warzone yeah

rapid moon Jan 9, 2021, 8:02 PM

#

Now scalpers actually have a discount compared to msrp

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:02 PM

#

But you'd need to go in the BIOS and max out the memory for it

#

Also, 720p with everything low is 50 FPS ish

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:02 PM

#

it is maxed out

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:02 PM

#

If I had to guess

#

You're 1080p yeah?

rapid moon Jan 9, 2021, 8:03 PM

#

With how each season of warzone go’s down in Fps u will probably get 40 or 30

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:03 PM

#

I'd recommend 720p becuase you might be running out of video memory

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:03 PM

#

originally 1080p but when i went into the games safe mode and it kicked me down to 720p and im still getting 50fps in the menu

rapid moon Jan 9, 2021, 8:03 PM

#

I’ve seen people on 720p with 60 FPS but that was a few seasons ago

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:03 PM

#

correction the lobby

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:03 PM

#

Yeah

#

50 FPS 720p is normal from the benchmarks I saw

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:04 PM

#

but my game doesnt even make it to that point

rapid moon Jan 9, 2021, 8:04 PM

#

I played warzone on my hd630 igpu and got 15fps a second in warzone then it crashed

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:04 PM

#

Yeah

#

Warzone doesn't recommend integrated graphics

#

Their minimum is GeForce GTX 1650 or Radeon HD 7950.

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:05 PM

#

i knew i wasnt getting 120fps on cranked setting

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:05 PM

#

It's not that

#

How much memory can you allocate in the BIOS for the video?

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:05 PM

#

idk

#

lemme check

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:06 PM

#

And if this is only with Warzone, it's honestly probably the answer

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:08 PM

#

How do I allocate more ram cause I can’t find it

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:09 PM

#

board?

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:10 PM

#

if the max is 512

#

Warzone not gonna have a good time

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

Max is 16gigs

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:15 PM

What's it at now?

How much ram do you have?

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:15 PM

I have 16gigs

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:15 PM

I would set it to 4 GB then

See if that helps

#

I wouldn't trust Auto

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:16 PM

#

Ok

#

Loading a game now

#

Same 50-60 FPS in menu

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

Don't expect much more with integrated

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

Yea I figured

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

But

#

with more video memory

#

It hopefully wont' crash

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

I was just hoping I could run it

#

I’m in no crash

#

And 60 FPS

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

NOICE

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:20 PM

and also this tells me i definitly did

📎 unknown.png

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

k

#

Have you tried this?

#

Open up the Battle.Net launcher.
Click on Options, which should be located toward the top left of the launcher.
You'll need to click on "Game Settings" from the dropdown menu.
Once you get into "Game Settings" find Modern Warfare and put a checkmark on "Additional command line arguments."
A text box will appear just below it. Type "-d3d11" in there without the quotation marks.

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:27 PM

#

Ok launching with that

#

Queueing up a game

#

and crash

#

didnt even get into a lobby

#

im gonna try it onemore time

#

huh

#

interesting i got a blizzard error not a directX one

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:32 PM

#

What error?

#

Can also try: Open the "players" folder, which will be located over at "Documents/Call of Duty Modern Warfare."

You'll need to look for a file named "adv_options.ini." Run this file with the notepad application so you'll be able to alter the values inside. Locate the line that reads "VideoMemoryScale" and change it to 0.5 or 0.55. The default should be 0.85.

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:33 PM

#

it wasnt really an error it just gave me a thing to type what happened before the crash no error code

#

and ill try that

#

ok now modern warfare stopped responding and battle.net is wacked out again

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:40 PM

#

Oof

#

Is there any way to do a file check or reinstall of the game?

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:40 PM

#

yea

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:40 PM

#

I'm honestly out of options

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:41 PM

#

if it comes down to it ill just play MW/warzone on my xbox

#

ok scanning files says itll take 5-30 minutes so when it does ill launch it again

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 8:44 PM

#

Sounds good

jaunty mango Jan 9, 2021, 8:45 PM

#

its weird cause gta v runs fine on medium and doesnt cause or directly crash itself

but now battle.net is wack again

If I'm on intel i5 10600, does adding my old 2gb radeon graphics card do anything to enhance video...or is it like pointless with the speed of the cpu?

pointless. The integrated GPU is most likely faster

i put one of those graphite thermal pads things on it that work great for IHS installs like GTX 580s and CPU's works great for those

#

but is HORRIBLE for bare die

coarse spindle Jan 9, 2021, 10:47 PM

#

have used worse

#

for a while i was so poor i used an old CRT as a secondary monitor

#

that i played games on

#

bc the refresh rate

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:48 PM

#

my nas box has a broken monitor for a display for accessing bios and such

#

dropped the display so it has multicolor tv static now

#

like overlayed ontop of the image signal

#

so yes its still usable for maintence purposes

coarse spindle Jan 9, 2021, 10:49 PM

#

interesting

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:50 PM

#

i have set up systems with it before so as long as your not trying to have a good time and watch videos or anyhting on it

#

the monitor is fine

how do i enable compute mode on my 2060 super?

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:52 PM

#

do consumer cards even have a compute mode?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 10:52 PM

Compute mode?

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:52 PM

#

i know kepler titans have it

#

and so to quadros

kind socket Jan 9, 2021, 10:52 PM

#

i heared rx 580s have it

#

so not sure if my 2060 super can do it

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

are you comparing a amd card to a nvidia card?

round crown Jan 9, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

What does compute mode even do

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

nVidia's don't do that

#

It's for blockchains

#

IE, mining

round crown Jan 9, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

Ah

kind socket Jan 9, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

yeah im mining

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

Just let the GPU do it's thing

round crown Jan 9, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

Maybe i should buy an rtx quadro 4000 and mineeee

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

yea you need the flagship cards for compute mode
Kepler TITAN's or (quadros are in grey territory, most of them dont work) or Teslas

round crown Jan 9, 2021, 10:54 PM

#

Teslas?

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:54 PM

#

yes Nvidia TESLA

#

📎 418vP2BNRM4L.png

kind socket Jan 9, 2021, 10:55 PM

#

not tesla as in the car company

#

just a model name

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:55 PM

#

no its a product line

round crown Jan 9, 2021, 10:55 PM

#

Never heard of that

kind socket Jan 9, 2021, 10:55 PM

#

ya thats what i mean

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 10:56 PM

#

Kepler TITAN's (a few quadros) and Teslas are compleatly un-nerfed

#

every TITAN excluding Kepler, GTX and RTX cards are nerfed like hell

#

its kinda funny honestly

ionic summit Jan 9, 2021, 10:59 PM

got an evga 3090 FTW3 from a drop pre-christmas and every now and then get fake temps on different pwr sensors over 6000C and the card thermal throttles for a little bit. its relatively rare but annoying. anyone else get this? whats the deal?

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

seems like faulty drivers or faulty card

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:01 PM

#

I've heard of that issue actually

#

but don't remember if there's a fix

cloud juniper Jan 9, 2021, 11:01 PM

#

ionic summit got an evga 3090 FTW3 from a drop pre-christmas and every now and then get fake ...

its a 3090 thats to be expected

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:02 PM

#

cloud juniper its a 3090 thats to be expected

wdym?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:02 PM

#

@ionic summit what I found is "DDU your driver and roll back to 456.71."

#

OR 456.98

#

It's a tad newer and shouldn't have the issue

wicked hound Jan 9, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

I just don't trust the 3090ftw3 at all

#

Legit mini firestarter

#

Flash the Strix vBIOS on it and enjoy ig

novel palm Jan 9, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

are there any 3060tis that are $400 and not $500 besides the FE because i dont want to wait till the 19th for the next drop

ionic summit Jan 9, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

tender mulch It's a tad newer and shouldn't have the issue

Thanks! I'll look into it

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

no, MSRP's went up due to import tax increase

#

FE might go up too but not sure

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:05 PM

#

Guys imma need some help my gpu crashes artifacts and overheats on my main pc but when I put it on my other one it worked fine what's going on?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:05 PM

#

I think they're made in Taiwan?

#

Could be power supply, could be case, need more details on the two PC's/

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:07 PM

#

My main has the good cooling 6 fans 3 front one back 2 top the better psu corsair rm750 my other one has some knock off psu and three fans also my main has i5 9400 and the old has i5 3rd gen something

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:07 PM

#

What case? If bad case, more fans won't help. H510 by chance?

#

A good way to test is to take the side panel off and see if it helps

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:09 PM

#

K let me try

#

As soon as I started the system coil whine and then minutes after windows started it restarted

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:17 PM

#

Coil whine indicates a power supply issue

#

Put the power supply from the old PC in the new one and see if you still have issues

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:19 PM

#

The psu is modular should I try a different pcie cable?

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:20 PM

#

Can try that yeah

coarse spindle Jan 9, 2021, 11:29 PM

#

wondering if a xeon 1620 v2 will bottleneck a 580

#

or if i should just get a 570

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:30 PM

#

should be alright

#

and if you can find a good deal on a 580, go for it

coarse spindle Jan 9, 2021, 11:31 PM

#

will i get any better FPS than on the 570?

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:31 PM

#

🤷

#

580 is better tho

#

and you can increase the settings to help with a possible bottleneck

coarse spindle Jan 9, 2021, 11:32 PM

#

kk thx man

#

if similar price on aliexpress will get the 580

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:33 PM

#

nice

#

make sure to get from reputable seller though

coarse spindle Jan 9, 2021, 11:33 PM

#

this is just a hustle rig

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:33 PM

#

tender mulch Can try that yeah

I'm still getting coil whine and just got blue screen

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:36 PM

#

With the side panel off?

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:36 PM

#

Yes

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:36 PM

#

Time to switch PSU's then

#

Cuz it sounds like the RM isn't working properly

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:36 PM

#

But it worked fine with my other gpu

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:37 PM

#

What is "this gpu" and what is "the other GPU"?

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:37 PM

#

This gpu is 1080 and the other is 2080s

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:38 PM

#

So the 1080 works fine in the "old" PC but not the "main" one?

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:38 PM

#

Yes

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:39 PM

#

blue screen can be couse drivers too

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:39 PM

#

Well, it's also the coil whine vs not

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:39 PM

#

try turn pc on safe mode and see

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:40 PM

#

After the blue screen it seems the drivers got deleted??

#

Anyways I launched it on safe mode now

#

So what should I do in safe mode?

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:45 PM

#

just try to load gpu

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:45 PM

#

With no drivers?

lone pond Jan 9, 2021, 11:45 PM

#

yeah no matter

#

just to see hardware is working properly

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:50 PM

#

Is there a program I could use everything I tried won't work

tender mulch Jan 9, 2021, 11:51 PM

#

That's because you can't load the gpu without the driver. Were you reinstalling the driver when you were swapping GPU's?

cinder plume Jan 9, 2021, 11:52 PM

#

First time I used ddu then reinstalled the drivers but now I didn't

#

I planned on selling the 1080 wanted to check if it works seems like it has issues

I think it would be 3090 kingpin, I remember hearing gn saying they pushed that card the farthest in oc
