the name should tell enough
ping them
@stoic island @wanton cliff
they the brains of this chat
what
also theres vintage racer i think hes smort too
ye
bekora smort man
So I have been at this for 3 hours
I'm bad with software tho
yo mr1
cx550 would work good with that right?
trying to explain to someone brand doesnt matter, model does
About a week ago the computer stopped working. The ssd won’t boot windows but I have booted it on a second drive and I can get files off it
I have run every comand line prompt
might want to just format it again after you get all the important bits off
Done a system restore too 2 different thing
yeah id clean install on new drive
But I want the software off of it
If I were to re install windows would it wipe the drive
I thought you could get the files off..?
im saying get a new drive if you have one on hand
It already had a backup
and install windows on it
ForMAt ThE dRIvE
lol
I did but can I run the software from another drive being the one with windows on it
dumb idea but maybe ask someone if you could install your drive in question into their computer so that you can boot off of their OS drive and extract all of the stuff you need onto a secondary one
I have another drive and also have it backed up in 2 differnent drives
uh do you have at least 40 gb of spare space?
It has 800 free
do you have like a completely blank drive to use?
would anyone here know why gta v online wont work at all really on steam, it always says that servers or down or it cant connect to them, sometimes it says it cant sync to the cloud.
No
restart the game?
tried, uninstalled it too
do you need an acc or something to go online?
changed my dns to 8.8.8.8 and it worked for a week then same problem
i just built the pc in nov, and gta works on the ps4 and xbox 1, no blocks on our wifi
positive?
yeah
War thunder used to not work on my ps4 but turns out wifi thought it was a virus
other online features of gta wor?k
then rocket league and valorant wont connect half the time too
hmmm
social club works half the time for gta
just cant get into a game
would it be my pcie wifi card?
using a b450 asus tuf mobo so had to get that for wireless wifi
well when it wont connect does like chrome work?
everything on chrome and stuff works
hmm
discord works
drivers on card might need updated
most wifi cards have drivers
you can look up how to do that
i got the latest one on the tp-link website, just did a full reset and clean install of windows last week and re did all of my drivers
hmm
router/modem might be blocking parts?
just saw the last bit sorry
yee
no one besides me knows how to mess with restrictions on wifi
id ask yo parents still
brb ima see if the game works or not for a sec
did you ever manage to join a game?
yeah, says rockstar services are unavalible
yeah the first week i had the game
then steam friends almost never connects, its really weird
when do u think the 3060-ti would be in stock for good
Couple more months
bet should i wait?
Or try and get one from Newegg or Best Buy
hey everyone
ok
guys
so i built my pc
and then i turned itoff using the pwer button
but the mobo lights where still on
is this normal?
idk
and so where my keyboard lights
and idk how to boot into bos
bios*
i just got into bios
enabled xmp
except my aio fans arent working
dunno how to fix that
check cables
add little ssd and go 1650super or 1660super i recommend
my budget 780
with flash drive
will it fit
1650 and 1650 super is around same price but super one is much better maybe just 10$ more
yea what else
clone disk xd
i have a flash drive
how many gb's should it have?
yep 240ssd around 25-30 $ and 500 one around 50
@little osprey do u know how to boot of a usb
so how many gigabytes should the ssd have?
how much u want
u can go to bios and boot it from usb or some mobo have shortcut like f11 or f12 to go boot menu
ok
theres 240gb option
alright.
uh
@little osprey can you build me entry level amd gaming pc under 700 dollars usd?
Installing my Kraken x63 onto this 5900x. Could I get away with only three thumbscrews on it? Or perhaps I find a smaller alternative/insert
im not sure
ur system is pretty cool actually . if you find good deals u can get them under 700 )
It’s an itx build, so I can’t close the case and I can only configure the tubing with the screws one way.
itx 
im going to build a pc soon guys😺
I have a question does anyone in here know anything about wifi cause I’m trying to figure if I’m running good download speed or not
thanks!
wdym
you want to check your wifi speed?
I mean, DL speed is not dependent on WiFi but rather what you pay for from your service provider
GT710?
610
You guys got any ideas for good, budget gpus?
ddr3
🤣

Reason: Bad word usage
anyone know the best way to monitor cpu temps and stuff like that
ok
Its a 610 @muted patio 🤣
i have an R5 5600x
uhm
is 30c on running browser, tasmanager and discord right?
on an aio aswell??
Ye
ok
My 3700x is 30-33 doing that
alright
lemme just check with u guys these things are all pretty decent right?
Ryzen Master
MSI AFterburner
GPU-Z
HWINFO64
I use after burner to oc my gpu
I use my gigabyte software that came with my board to monitor temps and set curves ect
Rivatuner statistics server, very useful for OSD
do i need rtss tho
and plus msi afterburner wont let me download it
i click on ity and it doesnty download
It's very useful for if you use OSD to get temps, usage, framtime, etc
You could download it separately
ik but why cant i download msi afterburner
i was legit on the page clicking download
it did nothing
Might be broken atm, who knows
rip
grabbed wot?
Ye
aight
OSD with afterburner+RTSS so nice tho
bro this computer feels so snappy and fast
I like it for games
For example, I thought there was weird stuttering, so pressed the OSD keybind, and sure enough, frametime spikes
A fair few people have asked me how to setup MSI Afterburner On Screen Display (OSD). I checked this subforum and to my surprise there was no guide on how to do it. So I figured Id make a guide for everybody out there struggling. 1. Downloading and Installing You will need to download a few thing...
lol u had the on u man
Ofc
Automatic undervolt and oc
Afterburner isn't good for voltage control
well nvidia....
Because Nvidia doesn't give you much voltage control
Lost 3 fps but dropped 30 watts
In msfs
So pretty good deal
I think
With auto undervolt
People who get it first try are lucky :p
Did u?
yes
No
lol
Ded gpu
Lol
my brother was looking at me build it and on first boot when i was loading into bios he didnt know what i was doing and just pressed random keys on the keyboard
stressed me out bo
bro*
Lol
Imagine pranking a friend
Help them update mobo bios then flip breaker switch
While it's updating
holy shi
No bios flashback
Yee
So my sister wants to make a PC for streaming, school and gaming with a budget of $800, any suggestions for a build?
@slow valve
just wait for the video card market to get better with price cuz now everything is overpriced and get the best one you can get with your budget
try to get an nvidia gpu, can use nvenc
NVENC, GPU does the encode instead of CPU. With a 5600, both would be fine though
aight
vintage what do you think of the list i made idk where to cut corners
CPU encode is higher quality if you have the CPU to do it
aight
Give it a try but if you run into stuttering or low FPS issues, change to NVENC encoding in OBS
ok
Hey I’m buying a display port will any cable do? Or do I need to buy a specific one
IMO, yes
Which display port should I buy? @muted patio
WDYM?
its like the different cables for screen input are generally
ohhh
oh thanks and don't worry it's gonna be built probably in a few months
HUH!?
I’m seeing 1.4 @muted patio
i was testing games
Would that be the newest one
Oh thank you
is there something that my pc could be capping games at 60fps?
V-Sync
V-Sync caps at 60 hz
legit went from like 60 to 1500 in a millisecond
im so glad didnt have to do a bios flash
wouldve been so stressfull for first build
the store i bought it from just did it for me
BIOS flashes aren't hard
Not sure why people freak out
Done hundreds, never had an issue
Just gotta follow proper steps
nah
@slow valve in a few month the market will likely change so this list will surely be obsolete
so ask someone to make you a list then
its australia for u
Is good.
wouldnt it be better to have the rear case fan blowing in?
oh, that would be too much positive pressure
Should be closer to neutral
whats ur case ?
Rear intake 
Fresh air is prob just gonna be sucked right out by top exhaust anyways
True true
Yup
P500a
is there a glass panel ?
Why wouldn't there be
idk
What about aio with tube downwards
Maybe it'll be the only case that I might be able to reccomend a freezer ii 420mm for xD
maybe he's ashamed of those yellow cable
Hm
Ig there's still no good mainstream cases a freezer ii 420mm will fit in well
For bottom tubes, def have to cut that ledge a tad
with all those fans your gpu must be thermal throttling
Wut
Uh
you should be fine after
@muted patio ig it's time to cut some mounting holes into the side panel and get some nf a12x25s to give the gpu some fresh air :D
Then nf-a12x15s

You know you want 50c furmark...
Welp, CX-F time
80plus<80 plus bronze<80 plus gold< 80plus platinum<rgb power supply
Also, there's a damn PSU shroud you ain't seeing any of the rgb lol
its been proven more efficient
knowing its there is enough
exactly
its not the exterior that counts its the inside
and in the inside there's rgb
so boost of perf
I am looking for advice on a build (2 actually).
Main usages are gaming at 1440p 144hz, and programming.
I am looking for opinions on the parts used, advice on how to improve, etc..
The main difference between them is 3060 ti vs 3080. Also the 3080 build gets 32gb of ram and a more beefy psu.
The specific 3080 used is mostly a place holder and i will probably buy what is in stock and has a sane price.
Still not sure which build i should go for either so advice on that could be helpful. Even if you have something completely different in mind i would like to hear it.
Build #1 (3060 ti): https://il.pcpartpicker.com/list/9Lr9y4
Build#2 (3080): https://il.pcpartpicker.com/list/vypdvf
they the same link
Oh
lmao
Just a second lol
3060ti one is pretty good
well, i guess its come down to how much youre willing to spend
Yeah thanks to same advice here before i decided to go for the aorus for the usb flashback and for an ssd with dram
ive got that ssd, its pretty pog
also, 32gb of ram? imo, get a single kit for now, see if you think you could use more later
Very true, my question is, do you think the 3080 is overkill? Maybe 3070?
then just get an identical kit
Reason: Bad word usage
your GPU needs to render games at 1440p at 144fps, so its not a matter of being overkill, its a matter of how much you wanna spend for more fps
Mostly for programming, which hogs ram like crazy.
Also if i get a second kit later i will need to pay extra for shipping from new egg
tru, it also doesnt really cost all that much
Yeah that was what I thought originally
Makes sense
If it was your build would there be any part you would swap out for another?
I think its not overkill
i would get an ATX motherboard so it looks better in the atx case lol
thats about it
Seems legit, but there is no other practical advantage other than you know pcie slots and usb headers right?
also, cpu cooler?
yeah, its just a longer board, no practical difference
stock cooler should be ok, but it looks kinda meh
Oh yeah I have no clue what to get and figured since the ryzen comes with a stock cooler i could start with that and upgrade later on
thats fair
Coolers will be bought locally anyways so no problem to buy a cooler later
Well i guess thats it... I am really grateful for the help @viral ore and also the help i got here before. Now its just deciding which gpu and then waiting 8-10 months after deciding for it to be in stock
I am doing the same
Awesome
needs to be def changed
the #2 is better though fyi
What changes would you recommend?
Well the board for starters..are there are any other options?
There are, what is wrong with the current board? I picked it since it had usbflashback and fits all my needs. I know it is not compatible with the usb c in the case but i dont mind
Because it’s worse than similar boards like the pro vdh wifi and pro P
I couldn’t find the p in my country :/ let me check again
I found them for 20% more, is it worth it?
Which one?
Both of them, and both are approximately 20% more than the regular auros pro.
And also they require me to buy them from a different local seller than the one i am buying the case from which will result in more shipping costs
Are you looking at the Aorus pro or the mATX Version?
Everything in this country with pricing is strange
This one costs less actually
456 compared to 556
Nice take that
Alright, what disadvantages does it have that make it’s price lower?
from your view point, none
And not from my pov just cause i am curious
A worse rear IO tho so not pleasing to look at
Oh yeah i was trying very hard to save costs on the psu but for the life of me in every store i checked there was no good alternative. The rm was practically the only modular one and then you have non modular ones for only 50 shekels less
which other options are there?
Or you had other modular ones for more
This is why 32 gb
Is the gigabyte G750H gold modular good?
There is the corsair TX but it’s only semi modular and is somehow more expensive god knows how
Other than what mentioned above you also got those antec PSUs
Is that HCG 750w cheaper?
Than the 850 corsair? Yes. By 100 shekels.
Than the 650 corsair? No they are identical.
Get that then @rotund marten
For which build
Will 750 be enough for the 3080?
Yes
Right
Depends on the cpu
Ryzen 5600
Yeah fine then
So @tough kettle we covered mobo and psu. Any other parts you reckon can be improved?
No glaring issues, I would take 2x16 instead of 4x8 if it’s cheaper
@tough kettle
Yep, it is not cheaper, according to the last time i checked new egg. Although the prices fluctuate here and there.
Is there any advantage to 16x2 other than having the possibility of adding more ram (which I definitely am not planning to do)?
No not really
ok, thanks a lot
You were very helpful and informational and helped me save money on the parts. :)
How much is rtx 3060ti?
like 4k
Does cl16 19 19 39 and cl16 16 16 36 have a big difference in performance for the ryzen 9 5900x
not a whole lot but it indicates better quality chips, probably B-Die for the faster timings
more room to overclock
but for the normal user it doesn't make any difference
not really. Bandwidth is also important, for 5900x, should be at least 3600, hopefully 3800 or 4000 mhz ram.
yeah but these speeds are a lot more expensive
i mean going from 3200mhz cl16 to 3600mhz cl16 for 70 bucks more is all I want but then spending 100 more for 4000mhz... I don't see me buying these expensive kits
3600 or i5 10400??
For gaming
isn't it too pricey for a 3200g build to take hyperx fury 2x8gb 3200?
or is a 2x4 3000 ok?
2x8 3200 is the lowest I would go for a Zen2 build imo
maybe a pny 2x8 3200 coz it's cheaper but idk the rgb ain't fun to look at lol
it is priced lower than hyperx but only like $3-$5 higher so....
Newbie here. Building my first. Basic stuff plus PS and Lightroom photography and drone videos in using Adobe Premier. No gaming. Looked at the Epic Builds and found one for $1,100.00. Upgraded the Ram and hard drive (same manufacture) and had to change the video card since the one listed is out of stock. All these components are said to be compatible. Never did this, I can hold a screwdriver etc. This is the link to the build on Newegg https://www.newegg.com/tools/custom-pc-builder/showcase/Perfect-Gaming-PC/ID-9510958
try looking at G.Skill Ripjaws or Corsair Vengeance
wait 3200g is only at 2666hz ram speed right?
no
so it's not capped then, huh?
oooh
no
3200G = 2933 mhz ram
oh ok ok the only time i saw "capped" ram speed is from an intel cpu tbh
even so, 3000mhz RAM is just as expensive as 3200mhz
just didn't how much those speeds can go lol
PS and Lightroon shouldnt be too demanding but that build is not going to be very great for video editing, especially in higher resolutions
Can you recommend one of these epic builds that would be ok.....
Are you comfortable with building one?
Yea, as long as all of the components are compatible and everything fits... no alterations etc.
ok
I have a DJI drone abd it does 4k video. Have not done much with it yet, but will...... using Adobe Premier...
ok
Just so you know if Premier becomes too expensive Blender is just as good
just saying
thanks
any idea how long the footage is usually going to be?
Couple of minutes at best...
ok thank you
id prefer resolve
to each their own
resolve is the closest to pro grade you can get for free
cute build
cooler not the best tho
doesnt need to be
gammax 400 moment
price?
Got it. Not sure what the difference between this and ordering from Newegg?
here @soft bison
this is just a list of the parts, it will provide newegg/amazon/BH links
more comprehensive list, easier for me to make on this website. Just order from where is says to order from.
depending on whoever has it for cheapest
OK, I appreciate your help.....
❤️
@wanton cliff I think da Vinci resolve is a better alt to premier pro that blender but idk I've never used lender
Blender
Ayyyy
Let's go
Wait y do u have s gt 710 with a 3700x lol
R u waitibg for a 30 series card
Or 6000 series
waiting lmao
Lol
but yes i do lmao
The bottleneck tho
fr lmao
woah
woah
she just started up with zen 3 core
new cpu?
mobile zen 3 lmao
Ooof building a rig for gf birthday this gunna be expensive lol
Can't have a better rig then her hahah
Any suggestive builds from the pros budget 3500 and will be playing games like cyberpunk as well as 3d modeling
And vo!
wait
for
ces
to
end
litereally
today
new
products
forget
ur gf for a minute
👀
Lol
lisa mommy keynote? poggers
and go to youtube.com/amd
fr
it was
yep, it was really bad compared to last year keynote
Guess he has never watched his own videos
fr
LMAO
is it just me or was the nvidia game on broadcast kind of a disappointment?
yeah
Just hoping the 3060 will be available to actually buy below the price of 3060ti MSRP.
tru
fr holy
Don't be spamming
best graphic card in the world
One channel is enough
theres a waifu 3070 i think
dont think the image is fully sfw
so u can look it up if u want
Such a sexy card
There was one like that for the 5700xt as well
If only I didn’t stream, I would totally go for the Sakura card
But Nvidia just simply is better for streaming

No.
Dm me NSFW ones
PG-13
that's....pushing it
I want to see the whole card
k
So as I stated before ces didn't tell me anything I really didn't expect so ill say it again 3500$ budget was seeing what yall would put together for the gf primary use would be gaming and 3d modeling anddddd go!
If u have time that is >-<
shii
ok
that is a huuuuge budget
honestly
Shes worth every penny hhahah
just buy some hardline watercooled prebuilt
tbh
hardline watercooling doing urself is a huge chore so just buy it tbh if u have that type of bydget
if he wants to build it
3090 and 5900x
easy
pro tip, dont drop 3500 on the tower alone
thats dumb
get like a 2k pc and like a 360 hz monitor or smth
LMFAO
and like the hpyerx alloy pro fps keyboard
g502 lightspeed
maybe like a hyperx cloud or smth
also, you cant really buy graphics cards at the moment, manufacturers have forgotten how to sell products
so
and a at2035
🤷♂️
LMAO FR
kinda sad
also ye, forgotten that rn the MSRP for 3090 is like 2k
because the tarrif import tax
in cali we have a store called central computers
i think they have 3090's in stock for like 1300
Last I looked 3090 was 2699
nice.
1699
1900 mb
3090 is hardly worth it
doesnt mean he should
obv wants the best of the best
Besides ive got a spare 2080super till graphics cards are obtainable
uhh, just stick with the 2080 super, its a solid card
get a rog crosshair 8 with a r9 5950x
depend on what is needed tho
if vram, 3090
3d modeling and gaming
if only like...gpu power
3080
then u can get the i9 11900k
2080 super will run a 1440p 144hz panel just fine
with that hot af mobo with 8 dimms
well, its way more than capable to
in my opinion, wait for intels 11th gen to launch, amd CPUs are really even available at the moment, so hopefully intel can sell a product
not bad, really good for 60
Ill just tell her a$$ to wait till the 11th gen come out lmao
But always helps to get opinions i have a idea what I wanted to do but more opinions and insight is always best u kno
I feel bad shes rocking a 2nd gen in currently lol
I5
if you wanted to order a system asap, your best option at the moment is a 10700k, and sticking with the 2080 super
and honestly, thats better than my gaming pc lmao
^^
Just dunno if I wanna do a intel or amd build
well, you cant buy amd at the moment
I love my i7 10700k been a intel guy forever
so its not really an option
probably doesnt need more than a 10600k or 10700k
those really are your best options atm
there is simply nothing better thats available
unless you wanted to wait a month
I got a really good deal on my 9700k and the mobo was on sale too
Well she will be using for heavy 3dmodeling and like I said casual gamer
My 3060 ti is great too
doesnt change my suggestion....
i already know
i mean, what other options do you have, 10900k?
3600 i guess, but its worse
Maybe I'll wait a month and see and in meen time she can use mine for the big stuff lol
Supposedly 11000 series INtel release is getting bumped up
All I kno if this better get decent amount of brownie points lol 😆 😂 🤣 😅
Idk how I feel about her possibly having better rig then me
Did the Nvidia CES event already happen???
Yus
yeah it was meh
Anything special?
It was boring af
At all?
laptop chips
which is, interesting
mobile ampere chips
new fancy gsync ultimate displays
FNAF RTX 
Laptops with low latency and 1440res starting at 999
3060 does? How is it specced otherwise?
Less cores
They just added VRAM to make people feel better IMO
more?
Or for rendering, IDK
i want a gtx line of cheap gpus
we need cheaper gpus
not many people wanna drop 300 plus just for a gpu
I got a ancient galaxy gt610 2gb ddr3 and 64bit in a box 15$ will play anything u throw at it lol
give us GTX 2650 super
I really, really want to see a higher specced GPU with good VRAM amounts
im banking on nvidia doing what they did last gen
You think a 2650 would be any good?
I kinda doubt they will tho
remember when they EOL'd 2070 and 2080 for the super variants?
Yee
they gonna dump 3070 and 3080 for increased vram models
Remember when they EOL'd the 2000 series in July?
july 2020 for the whole series
but they dumped 2070 and 2080 specifically much earlier
Yeah
also i dont think low end turing is EOL yet
the 1600 series isn't
end of life
I forgot are the tis better or worse than their base cards?
better
Usually much better
yeah, stop closing all your restaurants smh
on a more serious note, overpriced ram, meh ssd, bad power supply
No graphics card?
Gpu
also, yeah, where the gpu
Well umm, i dont know much but for starters i think a gpu will be nice
i mean, you cant really buy gpus atm
True
so
Waiting for stock
Same with a 5600 tho 
RTX 3070 would work with your build. Might need a slightly better PSU tho
3800/4000 preferred
Ok
Also yeah, something else I noticed: get better RAM
Any suggestions
Can’t remember who did the tests, but 3600mhz is the sweet spot for performance on both Zen2 and Zen3
Regardless of price
Sweet price to performance for sure
Zen 3 is actually 3800/4000
No
Maybe throw in a hard drive?
Yes, it is. FCLK on the 5000 series is 1900/2000.
is this confirmed? or just a possibility on some higher binned chips
Hhd are so cheap
ahh, nice
I think LTT tested it and 3800 was the best and 4000 had worse performance in some cases
Something along those lines
Yeah, AGESA needs updated
I will pretend to know what AGESA is
Love or hate LTT, they can sometimes do good benchmarks
in short, bios update
That was pretty short
Apple is weird
Software is practically the only reason people buy iphones
I wonder how a A14 would fare in Cinebench?
CPU as well.
Also i find them to be reliable
But that’s about it
Not after 4 years
Yeah their custom hardware mixed with custom software works out very nice
I mean, it would, wouldn’t it?
Totally
A software tailor made to a hardware tailor made for the software?
Seems about right
Meanwhile android runs on like 2000 different phone types
Different screen sizes
Etc
And it does a damn good job
Not as good as iOS with iPhones, to be sure, but a good job nonetheless
The ROG Phone 3, in particular, looks very sexy.
Ooo whats that
Oh yeah it does look nice
A phone made by ROG
144hz screen, Snapdragon 865 plus (iirc), 16gb LPDDR5, 6000mAh battery, 512gb SSD, and a host of other features
And it isn’t even that expensive either
Relative to the part selection
Cost more too
Not to me
If you actually game on your phone yeah maybe
Or do like video editing
Yeah but that’s what it’s for lmao
I would get an iPad Pro instead
ROG is Republic of Gamers
If I was going mobile gaming
No. Bad
And besides
iPad Pro doesn’t have Xcloud
But most people just need a camera, smooth experience, messages and content consuming
Yeah that thing is a beast
I love mine
iPhone 12 better
Lol
Paired with the apple pencil.. mmmm delicious
Good joke
ApLe tV bEttEr
I mean like
Anyone else just listen to the Globgogabgalab for an hour or two at a time
no u
Yesterday my ssd had 520 gigabytes taken up, but today it only has 434 taken up. Why is this?
Farm girl
idk prolly auto cleared recycle bin
Something get removed from Steam?
or temp
Probs that tbh
Nothing looks to be missing
ms storage sense does that
Large recycle bin tho
Ok thanks
If everything is working fine then it’s normal
If something is missing or very not working fine then come back here
i ned help
with?
Clearly, since nid is spelled with an i
if i’m getting a 3080 gpu, is the corsair 870w good enough? just wanna make sure
@rotund marten need
Which Corsair? RM? CX? CX-M?
Yeah
Usually
depends on model but yea normally ur good
Normally
when im playing games my screen will freeze and all usb devices disconnect
unfortunate
and theres no sound
Damn sara congrats for the new mom
ikr she got a real catch
