Where would the cooler argb plug into?

#

Straight into the PSU like the cooler or would it all be one cord or what

gritty forge
#

Huh

#

The cooler isn't supposed to go to the psu

#

That's a shame

#

80% of my projects are either on gitlab or they are private

cinder trout
#

I haven't started building yet n never built a PC before jus took a wild guess

#

So where would it plug into?

#

Like the RGB cord because how would that be powered n controlled

velvet summit
#

make sure it's ARGB or else you'll fry your ARGB leds

#

because there is a "RGB" header and "ARGB" header, and RGB headers are 12v while ARGB is 5v

#

and they're pinned the same afaik

nocturne flicker
#

RGB headers have 4 pins, ARGB has 3

#

If it is a generic connector they will look similar but the ARGB connector will have one of the slots filled

#

I finally found out what my Xbox one s had wrong with it

#

It’s a fan problem

#

Never would’ve suspected it if it weren’t for people here

#

Had this thing for nearly a decade if my memory serves me right

#

Yeah, over a decade and 2 months

misty sparrow
#

i love the really detailed video you provided for context

elfin mural
#

your only fan wants to sue you

misty sparrow
#

One S came out in 2016 by the way kekw

sinful blade
#

Oh wait

#

I’m dumb

#

So 7 years

misty sparrow
#

what's the fan problem anyway

#

the video shows nothing

gritty forge
#

I DIDN'T EVEN DO NUN

sinful blade
misty sparrow
#

oh yeah

#

why don't you clean your console then

cinder trout
#

Idk if this is right channel for it maybe build chat is better but out of curiosity how difficult was y'all's first build

#

Curious as to if some of you did it with ease or if others made big mistakes

young matrix
#

i just struggled with cables

cinder trout
#

That's my only discomfort

#

Haven't built mine yet n suprinslgy not as stressed coming up to it as I thought I would probably be

young matrix
#

just understand what youre doing and dont be afraid to look it up

cinder trout
#

But I jus don't want to accidently connect something where it isn't supposed to be n one click n I fry something or wtv

young matrix
#

read the manual if you have to

cinder trout
#

Thx

only $100??

Fan defect

velvet summit
#

I spent a little bit of time experimenting with truenas in vmware

#

And it's already 2am

elfin mural
#

it's worth it for 100

#

no reviews but i doubt it's terrible

wooden marten
#

man i feel stupid now

#

just a few days ago I bought a 144hz one for $120

cinder trout
#

Can u link that one rodlp

wooden marten
cinder trout
#

Ily

#

Can anyone confirm it's nc

#

Wait it's a va. Would a 24inch 1080 Ip panel be better?

#

Like significantly better

#

I was looking at two ip panels one was 120 the other was 110 I think

#

Wouldn't mind paying a little more if it is decently better

wooden marten
#

for $100 its still good

#

but if you want to shell out a bit more get an ips panel

deep parcel
#

I got the 27 inch version of that for my brother, it seems decent

#

Didn’t come with a dp cable tho

surreal kernel
#

hi

#

now that i finaly have more money can someone help me chose a board

#

there is also this

#

for way cheaper

#

it is opn sale

#

on

#

but reviews are not good on it

cinder trout
#

No dp cable is such a stupid thing

#

I feel like if ur gonna spend decent money on a 27 inch why not jus add a dp cable

elfin mural
#

Maybe because the monitor's hdmi version supports higher bandwidth than displayport

surreal kernel
#

should i get the msi board

surreal kernel
#

hello can anyone help me chose

gritty forge
#

What msi board

#

And what are your options

surreal kernel
#

first one

#

or last

gritty forge
#

I ain't gonna answer cuz idk

Was just saying, cuz it's not very helpful to ask for help without like, giving context

I mean if you want my advice, I used to use an AB350 Pro4 (ASRock board) and it wasn't bad. Idk much about Gigabyte, as I personally don't like them and their dual-BIOS system

Yeah aorus is better

craggy shoal

but I mean that's all I can say. I otherwise don't know much about them

ZLUDA enables CUDA apps on ROCm platform, no code changes required AMD-backed ZLUDA project can now enable code written in NVIDIA CUDA to run natively on AMD hardware.  AMD has reportedly taken over the project of a single developer called ZLUDA, which was originally a drop-in CUDA implementation to run through Intel OneAPI. This project, […]

Nvidia optix working on Zluda would be insane

#

Like AMD finally coming up to stand toe to toe in like 95% of normal things people use

#

Just recently Intel(?) made a vow to bring down CUDA

#

Because it truly has a market lock

elfin mural
#

btw zluda was originally intel project

#

before arc even existed

Nvidia's true strengths lie in cuda and tensor

Anybody know if it is possible to revert the effects of ThrottleStop?

#

Like a way to go back to the system defaults across the biard, cause throttlestop has done something to my PC I cannot seem to fix

#

My laptop is pera-locked to a very very low TDP that has made it very very slow, and I cannot figure out how to revert it. The only way I can fix it in any capacity is to put my laptop to high perf mofr, but then that sets the CPU to 30 watts, which absolutely murders battery life

must be nice to have fast internet

30 for that speed?

Xfinity offers 100/20 for 30$

Used to be like 32 for 12mbps cuz it wasn’t available before where I live to get 150 💀

Yh i need a new aux cord anyway so might as well get one for the headphones too. Just rechecked and one does sound worse needs to be way louder to hear the same volume and can't hear some of the music as well as other cord

Poor gang

#

AIBs increased prices because demand was higher than supply

#

Scalpers took advantage of low supply and botted/hoarded GPUs to resell

north crescent
worn wave
#

cog = cost of goods?

north crescent
#

Ye

worn wave
#

ok

#

I mean, I do see that view. But they weren't artificially lowering supply in order to increase prices (which scalpers were)

#

tbh miners probably ate up more supply than scalpers tho

#

they were using the cards at least

pliant berry
#

mining and ai certainly didn't help

north crescent
#

Scalpers usually provided better service to most non-US people tbf. AIBs and retailers only cared about the US and tried hard to never ship anything. It was almost impossible for me to get Nvidia cards unless I travelled 2hrs on a bus.

dusk knot
#

NgreedAI

north crescent
#

Sure lack of shipping was partly cuz of scalpers, but scalpers were a pretty small part of the market.

worn wave
#

but yeah im in US so don't have that view of the market outside

north crescent
#

Im in CAN, most of those who did shipping were US only. Pickup only was also kinda dumb tbf cuz I find it likely scalpers are the ones to have time to camp.

worn wave
#

for my BB card I was able to buy it online but had to go do in store pickup

#

I guess that doesn't really help botting, at least compared to a 1 gpu per address or credit card or something

#

idk

mighty hazel

Where do these go

misty sparrow
rancid juniper
#

😂

lavish stag
#

Anyone kind enough to help?

rancid juniper
#

what are you connecting?

#

3 pin rgb header
4 pin pwm fan right?

lavish stag
#

Yes

#

I believe so

#

But it doesn't come from a fan

#

Comes from here

rancid juniper
#

so a fan hub

lavish stag
#

Ooo

#

Gotcha

rancid juniper
#

is this the wires needed to power the hub? or its already powered

lavish stag
#

I think it'd fhr wires needed to power the hub

#

Since it's connected to the case

rancid juniper
#

ok

#

wait

#

it seems like its powered by sata in that pic ye

#

so i guess you can plug that 4 pin to a sys_fan header on your motherboard

lavish stag
#

That's Sata right

rancid juniper
#

for the 3 pin rgb cord you gotta check your board for that

rancid juniper
lavish stag
#

Ic

rancid juniper
#

dont unplug k

lavish stag
#

For the system fan?

rancid juniper
#

yea

#

that hub can be used to control the remaining fans on your system except cpu cooler

lavish stag
#

Ic

rancid juniper
#

so like front, top, back fans

lavish stag
#

Does orientation matter?

rancid juniper
#

somewhat

#

something like this

#

front for intake
exhaust (top and back)

lavish stag
#

I meant orientation for this lol is this correct

rancid juniper
#

oh

#

lmao

lavish stag
rancid juniper
#

well yes

#

just plug it the right way

lavish stag
#

Kk

lavish stag
#

Can I just plug it into the fan hub on the back?

#

Is this a spot?

gritty forge
#

That's rgb

#

Argb have 4 pins

rancid juniper
lavish stag
#

For the 3pin rgb cord

rancid juniper
#

yes

lavish stag

So that's the right spot? Sorry for asking so much

rancid juniper

whats your motherboard model?

Do you think evga wil still cover its 5 year warranty? It's been less than a year

elfin mural

gotta replug everything

lavish stag

I'll do that then

Warranty comes with product right? It's not some extra fee?

elfin mural

evga honors their warranty pretty well too

so is evga dying?

they're not selling on website anymore

what does the debug light show?

lavish stag
#

Is the switch clicked on?

rancid juniper
#

uh

lavish stag
#

Fans no spinning one sec

rancid juniper
#

dont think you should toggle that

#

prob a bios switch

elfin mural
#

that's a vbios or fan profile switch

lavish stag
#

Ohhh

#

Last time when my friend was building

#

We hit the switch then it started displaying

rancid juniper

wait a minute...

lavish stag

I don't think I touched it ever since it shutdown thou

rancid juniper

funny story, i have an XFX RX 570 that wouldn't post because the bios switch was on the OC profile, but it worked using the silent fan profile

whats your gpu model?

rancid juniper
#

dang it

#

an f cpu

lavish stag
#

Idk how it miraculously turned on earlier

#

Hahaha yeah...

rancid juniper
#

its either a psu problem or something is shorting

lavish stag
#

I ordered an se 214 xt the other day thinking I could install it

#

Ic

#

I'll check cables again

rancid juniper
#

ok

elfin mural
#

It's probably a short if anything

#

PCs are complicated sometimes

#

Ask Felix and Sips

rancid juniper
#

^^^

#

its complicated finding the source of a short

sweet phoenix
rancid juniper
#

it could be an exposed cable doing it or something else

#

like a bad screw

elfin mural
#

hm alright

sweet phoenix
#

both good choices

lavish stag
#

Dang that's an ass hole

rancid juniper
#

lol

lavish stag
#

Screws and cables in general or those parts near any connection?

tacit geode
#

well imma just deal with the bad gpu till it dies

tacit geode
#

i dont have anything to ship the gpu since its the kingpin and all

rancid juniper
#

i remember shorting my motherboard using the wrong screw to install the mobo

#

heh...

#

bruh

rancid juniper
#

what did you do

lavish stag
#

Grabbed wrong screw

#

But it fit

rancid juniper
#

your psu didnt come with any screws or you lost them?

#

lol

lavish stag
#

Lol maybe

rancid juniper
#

i mean, i used a fan screw for one of my psus and nothing shorted

tacit geode
#

unless you used drywall screws im sure you're fine

rancid juniper
#

i think

lavish stag
#

I thought my psu was b-tier 🫠

rancid juniper
#

any component can fail

lavish stag
#

I've contemplated sending it to those yt short repair guys

rancid juniper
#

The greatest technician that has ever lived

#

😂

elfin mural
lavish stag
#

LOL

elfin mural
#

unless you need 24gb

tacit geode
#

i play at 1440p 240hz

#

so 24gb is overkill

elfin mural
#

then you're good

#

4070s is pretty near 3090

tacit geode
#

where can i find one lol

elfin mural
#

im sure they're available

#

lemme check

tacit geode
#

4070 ti super?

#

wow

tacit geode
#

they did it

elfin mural
#

this for one

#

and yeah they made the meme name a reality

#

or this

#

if you don't wanna risk pcb cracking

#

gigabyte is prone to do that

tacit geode
#

then i can sell my 3090

#

i dont think anything is wrong i think it was just wallpaper engine glitching out

#

or maybe a bad cable

#

it was on one moniotr

#

monitor

elfin mural
#

don't think that's a gpu issue

tacit geode
#

nope

#

before i buy this gpu i want to be sure i can get a buyer for 3090

#

its been 6-8 months since the last one that wanted it was offering

elfin mural
#

if you get 4070s 850w psu is plenty

tacit geode
#

then yeah we can do that

elfin mural
#

hm, well if you list it cheap enough

#

someone will buy

tacit geode
#

i rather do it with someone i generally sell to

#

than ebay or facebook

elfin mural
#

i got used to sellin stuff on fb myself

#

selling my laptop rn

tacit geode
#

didnt neewegg do that tradein thing XD

elfin mural
#

or rather, whole setup

#

yeah they do

tacit geode
#

but pennies on the dollar

elfin mural
#

it's surprisingly not insultingly low

#

their estimates

tacit geode
#

cant even find it on the site

#

RTX 3090 24GB $480.00

#

oh damn

tacit geode
#

tho mines kingpin so ill go with my current options till they're exhausted

elfin mural
#

does this show up on trade in?

#

but tbh

#

id keep the 3090 until it dies

#

but didn't you need a psu?

lavish stag
#

Does a red gpu light indicate problem with pcie or the external connection?

elfin mural
#

it's a power issue

tacit geode
#

yeah i need a psu but also was considering changing gpu to something that uses less power

#

i pay for my own power now so it kinds hurts

lavish stag
#

Pcie looks fine

elfin mural
#

it could be a short

#

on one hand, paying for a psu is less than trading in your 3090 for 4070 super+psu

#

but on another the power consumption savings is big

tacit geode
#

its not like i really play demanding titles anymore too

#

the planet crafter has been more recently

elfin mural
#

spikes at only 239 watt

#

the 4070s

tacit geode
#

3090 spikes to 500w

#

LOL

elfin mural
#

i mean 3090 even with low load

#

it probably still shoots up way higher

#

while 4070s probably chills at 100w

#

Alright, heres the finaly decision question; ASUS 4080 super OC for 1099 or Sapphire pulse 7900XTX for 920?

#

4K gaming in mind and nothing else

#

I do all work stuff on my mac

mortal grail
#

XTX for 920

mortal grail
#

Or 4080 open box for 931

sweet phoenix
#

slightly better raw perf too

#

^

latent marlin
mortal grail
#

No 4080 or 4080S is worth more than 1000

sweet phoenix
#

zotac

latent marlin
#

Ive never had an AMD GPU so it owuld be my first

mortal grail
#

To be clear raw performance the xtx is still better

latent marlin
#

hm...

#

the question is that is DLSS worth 200 bucks?

mortal grail
#

But if you like RT and you know you will use it a lot, 4080 isn't bad either

#

Well in this case it's 10

#

Not 200

latent marlin
#

I never use ray tracing but wouldnt mind to actually use it

mortal grail
#

Don't get the 1099 one

#

Disgusting price

latent marlin
#

isnt zotac not good?

mortal grail
#

No?

#

This is a 4 slot cooler

#

It's enormous

latent marlin
#

Ive just always heard its not as good for some reason

mortal grail
#

Yes a lot of people have a stigma about it

sweet phoenix
#

they had scummy marketing tactics and prices during pandemic

mortal grail
#

Electrically it's on the low end but it's functionally an nvidia approved 4080

#

If you don't do the open box deal then don't get a 4080/super

#

Just plain not worth

#

And just for note, for 4K

#

You're looking at medium-ish settings

#

Or adjusted to low

#

If you want high fps

sweet phoenix
#

i mean i wouldnt say across the board

mortal grail
#

Still looks ok, but this is generally how it goes

latent marlin
#

im cool as long as its 60+ unless its a copetitive game

#

im more single player RPG type

mortal grail
#

Oops replied

latent marlin
#

so why the 4080 zotac if i can ask?

#

is the 4080 that much better at that price?

mortal grail
#

Yes

#

The cards are pretty comparable with RT involved

#

And so it makes the 4080 compelling when they're both the same price

tranquil pebble
#

AI use is another case where nvidia is a better choice AFAIK

mortal grail
#

Yes it is

wary fjord
mortal grail
#

Though this is just a gaming context

wary fjord
#

Cuda on amd

mortal grail
#

It's just not worth 200 extra for effectively the same performance

#

You don't get $200 in extra features buying an asus card

#

If anything you get less than other brands like sapphire for example

latent marlin
#

Ah i see

#

For those with AMD cards; sapphire is considered one of the best partner cards right?

#

While I like the ideal of a 4080, I am simply a little scared of zotac. Though I appreciate the tip on the deal.

elfin mural
#

zotac is fine

why is it called "Intel Processor 300"

stupid name

all i know is that its a slightly higher clocked pentium g7400 with a horrible price tag

$100 lmao

elfin mural

It's Intel trying to change their naming

sweet phoenix
#

Or passmark

grand kernel
#

it exists for oems

elfin mural
#

15th gen is going to be Core and Core Ultra

#

So Processor is for pentium

grand kernel

oems want new chips to exist no matter what

#

for marketing

elfin mural

But it retails for 95

grand kernel

just further suggesting it's for oems

who would be buying tray units and not retail units

this one in particular is just an obvious blunder

to me, ultra-light mice are just an excuse for companies to put the cheapest possible materials in a mouse and sell it at a very high price

one of those "Lightspeed" mice

apparently this is worth $160

at least it's free and not overpriced

it looks overly generic & cheap

But at same time u cannot expect extremely lightweight material to be as durable as other materials

but ultra light being marked up in logitech is odd

Not a fan of charging 160 for a damn mouse but I haven't heard a single complaint about it

if it has carbon plastic i will say it's a price well justigied

or some more special material rather than thinner plastic

If the deal stays long enough I'm definitely picking up white one on Amazon ngl
