what is the first thing I should do if my pc boots up but there is nothign on the display but it was working fine this morning?

lyric thistle Dec 25, 2019, 5:33 AM

ofc budget is irrelevant in your situation since you seem to have all the parts?

try hooking up a vga monitor, or some other display output you may have that will work to see if the screen shows anything

not sure if that's great advice but it's the first thing I would think to do

#

You definitely need to plug in both pcie plugs on a gpu. Both the 8 and 6 pin in this case. It can be safe to use adapters like a 2x molex to 1x pcie , but always check psu rail current limits.

#

Avoid sata power -> pcie power adapter like the plague unless you really know the electrical bits' details or you enjoy fire.

#

I'm surprised adapters are needed at all - any/most modern PSU's shouldn' tneed them

cursive wharf Dec 25, 2019, 7:21 AM

#

Just make sure to look at any labels on the cables

little osprey Dec 25, 2019, 7:21 AM

#

the 8pin says pcie

#

So, this can go into the card itself,

📎 unknown.png

#

the 6 pin says nothing

muted patio Dec 25, 2019, 7:21 AM

#

Wait

#

remove that Y cable

#

The 6 pin is an 8 pin with the Extra 2 pin connector there. Then there is a 6 pin also

#

Both of those go to the GPU

little osprey Dec 25, 2019, 7:22 AM

#

Right, so that PSU's dual 6+2 pcie power cable can feed the entire card alone.
Some (myself included) recommend running two cables anyway, but it's not critical.

I mean Jayz did a test on the daisy chain vs individual cables. Lost like 1% or <1% perf

little osprey Dec 25, 2019, 7:25 AM

Performance isn't what I'd be concerned about, though, depends a lot on wire gaugue, PSU/GPU ofc , lot of unknows.

If that doesn't work, there might be some default settings after updating that are interfering, idk them off the top of my head, but you can look through storage configurations in bios/google the settings

Titanium or platinum

Lol

muted patio Dec 25, 2019, 5:48 PM

not necessary

#

The Seasonic goold is well more than enough

#

The titanium/platinum thing is honestly just marketing

polar holly Dec 25, 2019, 5:48 PM

#

the one i linked has a platinum option but i only use platinum or titanium when i way over push the psu

muted patio Dec 25, 2019, 5:48 PM

Seasonic is a great manufacturer with quality components

#

Either of the two posted will be fine

This is for me but if i was to swap out my PSU i would be getting this https://www.newegg.ca/seasonic-focus-650-gold-ssr-650fm-650w/p/N82E16817151202

Oo

muted patio Dec 25, 2019, 5:50 PM

1000 watts is overkill for a single card setup honestly

@muted patio do you confirm

little osprey Dec 25, 2019, 5:59 PM

for a r5 3600x would 3200 ram be good or should i stick with the 3600??

#

because i wanna buy everything in store tomorrow but they don’t seem to have 3600

silver meteor Dec 25, 2019, 6:00 PM

3200 is fine

Since you can also overclock it

little osprey Dec 25, 2019, 6:00 PM

would there be a decent difference though

sterile wave Dec 25, 2019, 6:00 PM

Make sure it's not some dumb high latency

so i have a prebuilt to last me while i wait on shipping for my actual desktop, when it arrives, should i take the 8 gigs of ram from this and put it in the new one for a total of 24? (it's definitely not the same model, but its all 2666 mhz)

cursive wharf Dec 25, 2019, 6:37 PM

@latent bronze Prime Gold isnt bad, but I'd get better if I were getting 1000w
@zenith glacier so youre looking for a 1000w PSU?

polar holly Dec 25, 2019, 6:38 PM

yeah the ones she linked are good choices

Good choices, but not always the best for the price

Yes @cursive wharf

#

I went with prime of

#

Px

cursive wharf Dec 25, 2019, 6:41 PM

#

Decent. Would've went with better if I were doing 1000w tho

#

Fun fact, PSUs aren't as basic as just wattage and ratings. There is a lot more to PSUs than that

#

Corsair 1000RMi for $200 I would've gotten. Bit better and cheaper
Or Antec High Current Pro Platinum 1000w for $226. Better than both Plat PX and RMi.

Even if 3600 having that high CL just kinda makes it pointless in 3600 vs decent 3200

A cl16 3600 would be perfect, but a CL16 3200 really wouldn't be far off

If theres nothin better than 3600 18, check if there 3200 16 or 15

faint steeple Dec 25, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

a 3200 CL 16 kit and a 3600 CL 18 kit both have the same latency of exactly 10ns

so if the price is the same you might as well get the 3600 kit as you have the benefit now in bandwidth vs the 3200 kit

alright well i’m hoping to get everything in store tomorrow so i’ll probably just have to settle with the 17/18

#

but if they’re the same price, should i go 3200 16 or 3600 18???

manic nymph Dec 25, 2019, 10:05 PM

#

theyre both the same effective speed so it really depends on the cpu

#

but if theyre both the same price and regardless of cpu id grab the 3600/18 and maybe you can tighten the timings a little

little osprey Dec 25, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

okay because i’m also using a ryzen 5 3600x

manic nymph Dec 25, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

yeah ryzen tends to favor faster ram and the higher speed of 3600 will have a more dramatic affect with tighter timings than the 3200

little osprey Dec 25, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

i think the 3600/18 is cheaper as well, so i’ll probably end up getting that one

#

@tidal gorge Well few things to change in your build
Bad PSU
Get a 1650 Super for same price (it's better)
Spend a bit more on mobo for upgradability
Ram is a tiny bit pricy

#

Also keyboard is garbage for price

tidal gorge Dec 26, 2019, 2:27 AM

#

any recommendations for ram

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:38 AM

#

So uh anyone know how to fix this?

#

#

Dont mind the mess lmfao

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 2:39 AM

#

do you have an idea what caused it

#

like what was happening prior

tidal gorge Dec 26, 2019, 2:39 AM

#

look up the error code

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:41 AM

#

Nah, I just added my new motherboard and cpu, and it just is crashing my hdd

#

And I added all my old storage back now its freezing

#

I cant have my old ssd and hdd on the same pc, idk why

#

But it also cant run without it, so I'm in a weird predicament

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 2:43 AM

#

did you reset the order that they are booting into

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:43 AM

#

I cant even have them plugged in on boot

#

I plug them both in and they freeze

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:44 AM

#

After a certain amount of PC components replaced windows likes to pretend it's in a different PC

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:44 AM

#

Ah, I see

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:44 AM

#

I'm pretty sure you need to go through recovery if that's the case

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:44 AM

#

I cant though lmfao

#

I cant have both plugged in, and when I try one at a time, it just boots me into the hdd error screen

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:45 AM

#

Hmmmm

#

Do you have a back up perchance?

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:46 AM

#

I have 3 extra ssd's

#

None with windows tho

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:47 AM

#

So if you press f1?

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:48 AM

#

It shuts off my computer

#

Well, reboots to the same screen

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:48 AM

#

Hmm

#

Do you still have the windows installation CD/USB?

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:49 AM

#

I probably have the USB somewhere

#

I'm tossing the hdd for now

#

I'll recover it later

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

Good luck

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

Lmao thanks

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

I can run you through a bit more troubleshooting later if ya'd like just @ me

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

Idk if I have windows on this drive or not tho so I'm spook

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:51 AM

#

I would be if I didn't run Linux NYEHE

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:51 AM

#

Lmao yupp

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:51 AM

#

It's easy enough to make a new one if you can't find it

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:52 AM

#

Yeah

#

Well, it says I have windows on this ssd, but I doubt it

#

Ok idk if this is the USB working its magic or if I actually had windows on this ssd lmfao

#

Because I'm stuck on a screen with the blue windows logo there

#

Yeah, I think it froze lmao

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:57 AM

#

Oof

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:58 AM

#

Yup, both of those storage devices are broke

#

I think they shared windows? Like they both showed to have parts of windows

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 2:59 AM

#

Did you have anything like raid/unraid?

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 2:59 AM

#

I dont think I have it enabled

#

And my usb keeps freezing reeeee

#

Why is this so scuffed, I've never had anything like this even happen

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 3:01 AM

#

¯\༼ ಥ ‿ ಥ ༽/¯

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:02 AM

#

I'm going to just keep trying the usb until it makes it

#

And what do you know

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 3:02 AM

#

Did it work?

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:03 AM

#

It froze when I started the install

#

So ima just let it go

#

And hope it fixes itself

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 3:04 AM

#

Best a luck to ya

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:04 AM

#

Well someone's had my issue, it's an i7 9700k issue

#

R e e

drifting jetty Dec 26, 2019, 3:05 AM

#

Oof

#

Couldn'tve been the 50$ drive huh

#

Had to be the 300$ processor

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:07 AM

#

Yup

timid nacelle Dec 26, 2019, 3:09 AM

#

Does anyone know if you can install a motherboard with rear and top fan installed

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:10 AM

#

Um you should be able to, it depends on the case

timid nacelle Dec 26, 2019, 3:11 AM

#

Ok. Just wanted to make sure I should be able to before trying it and having to take it apart because I can’t

brittle ibex Dec 26, 2019, 3:25 AM

#

Quick question for whoever wants to give me their advice. I just got a 1tb hard drive for my first pc build, I’m getting an SSD to put my operating system on and maybe a few games, do I go with a 250gb and save some money or should I just get 500gb and save myself the upgrade later down the line

#

I also still need a case, motherboard, and a power supply and I’m looking at $300 for all 4

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 3:26 AM

#

what cpu and gpu are you currently running

brittle ibex Dec 26, 2019, 3:26 AM

#

I have a Ryzen 5 2600 and a xfx 570 8gb

#

I’m looking for at probably getting a 650 watt power supply, either an MSI X470 motherboard or a b450 tomahawk

#

And I really want the Corsair carbide spec 04 for the case

#

I’m also not sure if I should get additional LEDs and cable extenders but that’s just if I have extra money in the budget

eager dew Dec 26, 2019, 3:29 AM

#

i Just got the ryzen 7 amd 2700z and corsair vengence ram

#

x*

brittle ibex Dec 26, 2019, 3:29 AM

#

Should I go with the 500gb SSD or cheap out and get a 250 for now

eager dew Dec 26, 2019, 3:29 AM

#

500gb

#

in my opinion

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:31 AM

#

250 for now

brittle ibex Dec 26, 2019, 3:31 AM

#

Alright. Also I need a case recommendation. I’m trying to go for something red to fit my aesthetic I’m going for but all of the spec 04’s I’m seeing online are sold out or a lot more expensive

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:32 AM

#

Having games on a boot drive just slows it down

brittle ibex Dec 26, 2019, 3:32 AM

#

I might do the 250 and use the extra money on cable extenders

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:32 AM

#

Also if you want a good ssd deal, get a 860 evo 1 terabyte they are %50 off

#

On amazon that is

@muted patio

#

im feeling really bad about my purchase

#

i was fighting with my friends the other day

#

about between the 5700xt and 2060 super for streaming and gaming at high refreshrates during professional play

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 3:34 AM

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qJnphg @brittle ibex this would work for you correct

prime spear Dec 26, 2019, 3:34 AM

#

and i purchased the rtx 2060 super and now feel like im being harrased for buying a certain card

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 3:35 AM

#

Then thats not a true friend if he is harrasing you for it

warped moat Dec 26, 2019, 3:35 AM

#

Tell your friend to chill

muted patio Dec 26, 2019, 3:35 AM

#

Well, your friends are jerks. We proved amds hardware encoding is garbage. Sorry they are treating you that way over a simple hardware decision.

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 3:35 AM

#

Like its your stuff whats it matter to them what it is

brittle ibex Dec 26, 2019, 3:38 AM

#

@polar holly I think I’m gonna use that SSD and the power supply but I just saw the Spec 05 is only $65 rn and I already got 3 red LED fans, thank you

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 3:39 AM

#

alright that works buy what you need i just put fans becasue case only comes with one

prime spear Dec 26, 2019, 3:39 AM

@muted patio can i show the screen shots?

muted patio Dec 26, 2019, 3:40 AM

#

Ugh

brittle ibex Dec 26, 2019, 3:40 AM

#

Yeah lol I noticed that, it’s such a clean looking case too but I think the Spec 5 might be an upgrade honestly, and it fits in my price range just enough so that I can buy the cable extenders still

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:40 AM

#

Comparing which encoders?

muted patio Dec 26, 2019, 3:40 AM

#

Ignorance is strong. It's not about performance

#

It's about wualityt

#

Amds hardware encoder vs nvenc. Amds is sub par quality wise.

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:41 AM

#

When you're single PC streaming, having the option to NVENC encode is a very nice performance oriented option.

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 3:41 AM

#

It was about the use of streaming on a 2600x and either a 2060super or a 5700xt with minmal performace penalty

muted patio Dec 26, 2019, 3:41 AM

#

Yeah his friends are calling him stupid for going nvidia

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:42 AM

#

I thought it's pretty common knowlege that if you like single pc streaming, the $100 premium on say - a 2070 super vs 5700xt is worth considering for the NVENC support and all. It's certainly not impossible to single pc stream x264 - but even on a 3900x, good settings, some games won't play nice.

muted patio Dec 26, 2019, 3:43 AM

#

This is simple. You do you. If your friends are going off like this over a gpu decision I would just remove myself from the situation.

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:43 AM

#

I thought it'd be over pascal vs turing or something lol.

prime spear Dec 26, 2019, 3:43 AM

#

i told them i bought the card already

#

and they told me to buy a card that wouldnt fit in my case

#

i told them the best card that would fit in my case was the one @muted patio showed me

#

this one takes 2.5 slots

#

the other one takes 3 and more with the plastic covering

they said anything but evga

little osprey Dec 26, 2019, 3:45 AM

#

@ (つ◕౪◕)つ ya - TL;DR the Jan 2019 OBS 23.0 update changed the game. Performance optimization for both pascal/turing + quality improvement for turing iirc.

@muted patio my friend just sent me a vid of linus saying which graphics card is better

doesnt include streaming or cpus

Right. Seriously man. They're toxic. Take a break from them. This is honestly a bit ridiculous.

it kinda hurts

cause now his friend that i dont even know

Make yourself invisible on the channel

#

And just go somewhere else for a while.

prime spear Dec 26, 2019, 4:12 AM

how to do it on one specific channel?

or just go invisisble on everythign

I'm trying to upgrade my graphics card, and can't tell if there's going to be any incompatibilities. I tried using PC Parts Picker but it didn't have the parts my computer has. https://www.newegg.com/p/3D5-000B-000N9?Item=9SIABFS9KS9797&utm_medium=TraEmail&utm_source=TEMC-Function-Voting-Invitation-USA&cm_mmc=TEMC-Function-Voting-Invitation-USA-_-index-_-product-link-_-9SIABFS9KS9797
This is the one I bought and am trying to upgrade.

polar holly Dec 26, 2019, 6:16 AM

#

Pcpartpicker would not have a oem parts. But the main restrictions for that will be( size, power connections, length)

brisk fiber Dec 26, 2019, 6:17 AM

So just buying a bigger case to accommodate the graphics card might not be enough?

This is my first time trying to modify a pc, so sorry if I'm uninformed. u_u;
