Wait what does he mean why wired
Ethernet cord
Ok but
Plugging you PC directly to the router
Powerline adapter works too
Ok so are all these a modem and router combined
I was going to get a mesh router too
That will plug directly to your current router, then the signal travels through your house to be received by the other end at your PC. It's treated as a wired connection, distance doesn't matter. Only thing that matters is if both outlets go to the same circuit breaker.
What about a mesh router
One plugs I to router
And the other one can be plugged into an outlet
And than Ethernet to pc
I get rn
47 mbps
Dow also
Download and 10 upload
Simple diagram for reference
For a mesh router, you can just do an amplifi like others said but that's a more expensive option
Not exactly, this is a wired connection
But it’s better right
Each is good in its own way
What are the ways???
Mesh is good for whole home wireless coverage, powerline is good for pure speed and latency to a few devices
Oh
Wait
So
I use one power line adapter
And connect it to the router
By the power cable
Dm Ethernet right???
Yes, then the other goes by your PC
I see
Then you have a wired ethernet connection between them
And now I need to chose which router and modem combined
Yah isn’t that good
They communicate through the power lines in your house
It's better than wireless for latency, I get about 60 ping on most games with mine
I mean 60 after accounting for the server processing thousands of requests a second before it sends a reply
MMO games
Ok
Now
I need help choosing a router
And modem combined
A good one
That support more than 100mbps
In case future upgrade
In speed
Normally I advise to get the router and modem separate for several reasons
I assume you're on coaxial cable lines?
Yep coax
Is that good
It's standard, just making sure you weren't on some weird slow fibre internet
Whats a good ATX 600-650w power supply under 80 dollars?
Ok so now what
We have fiber optic internet, but are on the lowest tier plan. I'm still trying to talk my way into getting an Ethernet line run to my room.
Looking up a couple options for you
I'd do this if you wanted another combined modem/router, doesn't specify range though. Most combo units are average range. (~1500 sq ft) https://www.newegg.com/motorola-mb8600-10-cable-modem/p/N82E16825390011
Now is that a modem
Or router
Or combines
I’ll get a modem and router separate
That's a combo unit
Oh
Ok I di t what that
I would like to get a modem and router separate
So what modem should I get
Decent enough unit, up to 1000 Mb
Very broad compatibility
Motorola makes really good units in general
Better ones will cost a lot more and are ultimately less value for your money
You'll never need to worry about a better one anyway until you get closer to 1 Gb speeds
The one I linked is $78
No 1 gb plan
Depends on your service provider. We could get Gigabit, but right now we're on the 100 Megbit plan.
Just planning for the future yeah, faster coax is getting more standard
Yes it's coax
So it will be good for future plan upgrades and speed
Yep it'll definitely get as much (or more) speed than you're paying for
A lot of providers will account for poor quality modems (like the ones they typically give out) by allocating more speed than you're paying for, a faster modem will take advantage of the extra speeds
Ethernet on the modem
I don’t I have wow
Ok than where does the router do
Go
So I plug it into that slot
Ethernet
Than what
Does it have to be next to the modem
Xfinity is the only internet provider in my complex unless I want DSL or I go for a wireless/satellite plan
Which is what I did
Not exactly next to it but it's limited by how long your cable is
I'm not even sure i could buy a different modem for our fiber internet. We might be stuck with the one the ISP provides.
And put it in my room
Than what
than the router unit the pc by Ethernet
Is that right
Is this WiFi 6
2500 sq ft range, Archers are good like I said
https://www.newegg.com/tp-link-archer-a7-ieee-802-11ac-n-a-5-ghz-ieee-802-11b-g-n-2-4-ghz/p/N82E16833704454
I can spend more
Wifi 6 doesn't matter unless you use devices that support it, which is rare
My budget is less than 200
Ok
But is thwart I said right above
The router than plugs into my pc by a ether cable
Ethernet
The modem connects to the ISP through the coax cable, the router connects to the modem by ethernet, then your devices connect either through wireless or ethernet to the router
Ok
Than what
Anything else
So does the modem and router have different WiFi thing
Than will I need mesh router
This is the upgraded model of the one I linked before, normally $120 on sale right now for $88. https://www.newegg.com/tp-link-archer-a10/p/33-704-484
Like the google mesh routers
You won't need a mesh router if you get this probably, it's got really good range
Sort of but not really, only if you connect a lot of devices, like 8+
And is 100mbps good enough to stream and game with multiple devices on
And I got a lot than at the problem
4 iPads
2 phones
2 pc
1 Mac
And more
By guests
The number of devices matters less than the number in use at the same time
On is one thing, it's mostly idle, I mean in use like streaming video or playing games
Up to 8 devices in use like that at once I'd say is good on that router
Ok
You probably won't even be able to stream video on 8 devices at once on your net speed anyway lol
I'd say 4 at once on 100 Mb
DNS = Domain Name Service
It translates domain names like google.com to computer-readable numerical addresses
That’s what pop up
And than I can’t do anything
I have to reset the moduem and router
I order for it to work
Than sometimes
What exactly did you change?
When I am playing a game it somethings kick me out of the gam and says network coenexrnlost
Connect lost
Wdym
Like when you were troubleshooting and got the DNS error, what changed?
It just says limited
I didn’t change anything
Or do anything
It just happens randomly
Hmm, it's possible you could help the problem by switching to the Google DNS server if you're in the US
Your ISP has a DNS server that the modem will use by default, a lot of the time it's garbage
So will it happen when I get these new items
Possibly if your ISP auto assigns the DNS settings
How do I fix the issue
You can fix it easy by just telling the router to use a different server
Google DNS is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
The how depends on what model you get
Ok
Well why does it kick me it of my game randomly and says network connection lost
But than works right after
Here's what the setting looks like on my router, also a tp-link archer
Wifi just loses signal sometimes. 'Tis majorly annoying.
But mine happens liek every 30-1
This is another possibility, ISP routers are crap
But the DNS issue points to the ISP, not the router
What do you mean by this? An app to change router settings? You don't need one, you just log into the router from your computer.
Liek u see
How u have a app
I opened to access ur thing
I don’t have one
How do I log in
You just type your router's address into your browser
Ok
The login details are usually printed on the router
The you can go into whatever it calls the internet settings and look for the DNS options, yeah
Then you can change primary to 8.8.8.8 and secondary 8.8.4.4
That's the Google DNS
Maybe, at the very least it'll make the net respond faster
Got this, liking it better than the Logitech g604 already
I have a Logitech G600 I love and dread the day it croaks on me.
My lask basilisk started double clicking after like 3 months or so lol
But I think your mileage may vary
Did you rma?
Funny enough, the first G600 I bought had one of the side buttons get stuck within a few days of me getting it. Returned it for a replacement G600 that's been going strong since 2016.
My g502 has been fine since I got it to replace my basilisk
Brought it back to best buy and swapped it for this mouse
Oh, you didn't like the 604 and it's bazillion buttons?
It had nine lol
Almost got the Naga Trinity, but wanted something wireless that was under $100
Cause if I don't like this, I can swap back within 2 weeks of buying this and then I'll get the difference in price refunded
Mmm true
Main reason I went to best buy instead of elsewhere
I wanted the Asus chakram, but I couldn't afford it
I'll probably wait till the trial for this ends before I decide to get it or not
Basilisk is a nice mouse
I'm also looking at the Logitech Orion keyboard
I'll definitely miss the infinite scroll on the g502 and the many buttons compared to basilisk
But other than that is good
Yeah I was stunk between this or the Naga Trinity with it's modular buttons
Oohhh
The one with the replaceable side button panel
Lmao I considered it but then was like, do I really need all those buttons?
Hi guys today is my first video and im showing you guys how to make your mose wheel spin at termibal velocity i am not resbonsible for any damage and the mouse im using is the logitech g502 thanks for watching
I'm not sure that wheel would ever stop unless you lost your fingerprints stopping it
Lol
I'm thinking of the blackwidow, but I'd like something similar to the Logitech orion
Hey just installed some ram what should happen next?
Bootup pc @marble whale
After that do I go to the bios or what?
I would and turn on xmp/docp
what's that?
It enables your ram to run at it's advertised speed instead of default speed
If you don't it'll run at 2133mhz
Oh ...
Then you should be fine to boot normally....I think
I haven't used ddr3 so....
DDR3 might still need XMP
Ok its my dad's old PC
It might default to 1066 without XMP
It's supposed to be announced this week, the 24th
I might get it
You might need to do an upgrade for w11, we'll have to wait and see ultimately
We could get free upgrades from 10 to 11, like when 10 first came out
I meant hardware upgrade
I doubt it, if it runs 10 then it should run 11 unless they stick with the TPM and secure boot requirements like the leaked build has
11 so far looks exactly like 10 but with a new interface
new interface
Hey Fal, should I get the Logitech Orion keyboard or get a Razer Chroma keyboard?
You're asking a guy using a 17 year old HP keyboard
Peripherals aren't my specialty lol
Mmm
personally not a fan of logitech. love my steelseries apex 7 and my son just got a razer huntsman. both great options. hunstman has a heavier spring than steelseries.
to be more specific. i find logitech to feel very squishy compared to others. almost feels like an overpriced membrane keyboard.
I like the size of the Orion, but I have a razer mouse so...
when is evga midweek madness?
For all those people who find it more convenient to bother you with their question rather than to Google it for themselves.
I have a Logitech mouse I'm pretty fond of.
https://gelidstore.com/collections/thermal-solutions/products/stella are these good fans
@earnest olive do you know?
nope never heard of them before
I've vaguely heard of them but if you want cheap rgb fans, just get arctic p12 rgb
I am on my modem setting now what do I do?
For what lol?
Umm
So I have been having internet issues so when I play a game it kick me out sometimes middle of the match and says newtqr lost
And sometimes there is a limited symbol next to my Ethernet
I'd call your isp then
And when I click troubleshoot
It says dns sever could be found
Someone told me to change the dns server
Of the modem
could be?
Is there a way I could fix it
There is no real problem to fix if the dns server could be found
Can I go I to the modem website and change it
change what?
ur saying the dns server can be found
so why would you change it if it can be found
Why would you change something thats working tho
or do you mean its saying the dns server couldn't be found?
Yah that’s what I mean
Sry
Sometimes nothing pops up but sometimes it says dns serves couldn’t be found
@frank stirrup
question should i buy ryzen 7 3700x or ryzen 5 5600x
what is best ryzen cpu for its price
depends: what you gonna be doing, what price are they, if gaming, what resolution
im old dude planning to play diablo 2 resurrected
5600x for gaming. 3700x for editing or streaming
budget?
go intel
any way you could return a few items?
Ok so cancel the ram, case and aio
so everything?
psu and mobo is fine
also the board doesnt have wifi inbuilt incase thats important to you
i do have ethernet
Ok then the board and the psu is fine
3700
the 3060ti is also fine
nah not really
that i coudlnt buy lol
cheaper for almost same perf? yes, definitely
So you will have to wait till you can to boot ur pc yeah
well they are doing prime day sale
so i thought it would be better off to buying some parts
Yep
yeah, hes not running a 3090, so not gonna be GPU unlimited
so Ill recommend getting a GT710 till you can snipe a 3060ti
What are you smoking
socks
my current gpu is gtx 750
it can only run diablo 2 resurrected with very low resolution
Ahh you can use that till you get a 3060ti
i want to enjoy my memory
Intel i7 10700(k) for that price imo
and with a 750 the perfomance between a 3700 and 5600 is going to be negligable
again hes gonna upgrade to a 3060ti
also what are you smoking
What i got?
Helping the guy out
With list?
I gtg but I dont wanna leave him hanging
yeah
Kewl
he sent this one
I asked him to return case ram and aio
lol you say same thing?
Cool
Yeah oven case overpriced aio and slow ram
@fallen cosmos what's the budget?
$1500~2000
Okay
so just keep motherboard psu and ssd ?
Above
I have 8.1
1.1.1.1 primary
1.0.0.1 secondary
Article
Doesn’t take a lotta braincells to figure out that thats the version you gotta google then
Lol
i was able to cancel case, cpu cooler and ram
Not good with routers sorry
Perfect
Pato will send you a smackin list
Go with what he sends and ull be good
Ok @fossil cedar can U send me it
@fallen cosmos https://pcpartpicker.com/list/x4thz7 this will do beautifully
Yw jg :)
Send you what?
Perfecto 👌
He said
no need additional fan?
This
thank you pato
This too
Nah, you can get a 2nd one for the front if you want, I'd move the one from the back of the case and put it in the front anyway
Rawr was talking to jg
@fallen cosmos if you want a 3rd fan for the front of the pc get a arctic p12 pwn fan, they're like 10$ ish
pato arent you the one who gave me the part list
last time as well
looking at intel cpu is on sale
still thinking whether i should go for intel
Possibly lol, what cpu you looking at
And remember if you go intel
Then you gotta cancel mobo as well if you do
If you want to just game, the 5600x will be better, although if you want to do more multi tasking, or any other core heavy workloads that would be a better choice
so i made 2 lists, how are these: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/FireDestroyer53/saved/
Why 32gb?
Doing editing or other development?
Hi all.
Does anyone have a recommendation, links or things to check on the issue I'm having here with a new build?
I haven't been able to boot. The power supply blinks everything on and off continuously, like a blinker on your car.
MB LED reads "0" which isn't a listed as an error code in the book.
The LED on the MB for "CPU" blinks on with every cycle (I've re-seated the CPU) but the others.. DDAM, BOOT and VGA aren't blinking.
TRX40 Aorus Master
AMD 3970x
AXi1600i
Crucial Ballistix 3600
Any ideas what I've done here?
nope
but i have 24gb of ram on mine
rn
so i thought it would be helpful
Unplug all the power cables except the motherboard, cpu, and gpu
24GB is a bad number to have, 3 sticks I'm assuming so 2 sticks are running dual channel mode and one is in single channel.
Most people don't need more than 16GB, even for streaming and multitasking while gaming.
yeah lol its in my mac
If you're just gaming 16gb is plenty, and if you want/need 32gb get 2x16gb instead it's better and cheaper
i just bought it because i needed the extra ram. i was gonna get 32gb but only got 16gb more
oh ok. i'll think about ti
it*
actually its about the same price for crucial ballistix
:/
like literally exactly the same price
Also that 11500 is scalped af, and I'd spend like 130$ instead on a b560 if you waited til 11500 went down
yes ik im gonna wait for the 11500 to go down if i go that way
The most I've ever used of my 16GB kit is 80% and that was with 2 different browsers open while playing heavily modded fallout 4 and streaming to other devices on my plex server
Still 2x16 gives option to upgrade, and is better cus dual ranked
Also why did you go sata and not m.2? But that's a small gripe
bc i have a 300 dollar bb gift card and thats the only reasonably priced ssd there
2 sticks is also less strain on the memory controller so it tends to overclock better than 4 sticks with the same total capacity
thats the 0's
I see
waht is msrp of 11500? im gonna edit it down to that
219?
215ish iirc
kk
Somewhere in that range
k, how are these? https://pcpartpicker.com/user/FireDestroyer53/saved/
Nice
kk thanks. im just gonna go with the 11500 one and build it soon im excited
unplugged the USB and the SATA and it's "on" but no bios. :/
Just wait till it gets down in price, I'd recommend something like the msi vdh pro b560 board btw for that price
That's an improvement at least, double check all your wiring is plugged in to the right places and is in tightly
yea ik. i didn't put an exact one bc a lot of them are oos
That's almost the price of a 10700k today lol
igpu is what im after
Ah you want the uhd 750, I see
That's fair
269 iirc?
si
If you'll be using the igpu for a while maybe consider ryzen 5700g
That's not til August tho
That apu is in another league for graphics
Officially yes but you can find it on ebay
Only oem til August tho :/
For like 500$ lul
You can get a full pc with a 5700g with 16gb memory for $700 easy
They already have case ssd psu tho :/ be a bit of a waste
I replace all those things anyway for prebuilts lol
Fair lol
Why the storage tho?
256gb ssd is fine for a boot drive but not much else
Fair lol
In your modem? Those are best left alone
To change your dns settings?
I don't know what your interface looks like, they're all different
Yah to fix this limited thing
How do I show in
So far I hav gotten kick for my game like 5 times
And it gave the dns error again?
No
T didn’t say the litmus thing
Limited
But it just kick me out
Like I can’t move and way to fix it is to unplug the Ethernet cable
From the pc
And plug it back it but that doesn’t work all the time
You're probably going to have to talk to your isp to get you a new modem, and if that doesn't work they need to send someone to fix the cable lines
DNS change probably won't help with disconnects but it can solve not being able to connect at all sometimes
Just reset modem to factory defaults
How
That will clear all the DNS settings back to factory etc
Bro I desert the modem like everyone I get the limited sign
I reset it everyone I get the limited thing
Like from the modem
Not unplug reset
Or power off reset
In the modem menu reset to defaults. IDK where it is, check your manual
are these good specs for a $7 fan?
Ehhhh don't think you can really by a fan by specs, what fan is it?
It’s called amped wireless
Every manufacturer measures the specs differently
Afaik stellas are fine but arctic p12 rgb is far better for a little bit more
it was recommended in a different server's fan guide
they are twice as expensive
You realise stellas site is gonna charge you shipping and newegg/Amazon will have arctic p12 rgb for 10-12$ and no shipping and way better
amazon p12 argb are 17 for one and 43 for 3
$7
not positive what shipping is though
on the arctic website a 3-pack is 34 but they aren't avalible
why is it $30??
thanks Fal'Cie
Weirdest thing! I am up and running but the SATA power cable was the issue. Every time I try to add it back to the system, it won't boot.
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/QpH7YJ/arctic-p12-pst-a-rgb-0db-488-cfm-120-mm-fan-acfan00231a bit cheaper here but 3 pack is def best value for them
is this power supply good? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WW1XK45?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1
Anyone know off hand if the bitspower waterblock fits in a lian li od11 case?
I cant seem to find a solid answer
Fine but fairly overpriced
whats a good 650w psu?
In the uk?
Ohh sorry it redirected me to the uk Amazon site
ohh thats why
my score lol
Nice, poor gt 1030 tho
Yeah lol I don’t need a hefty gpu for what I’m doing
Oh and the massive freezer II hehe
Fair
I’m planning on rad front with fans pulling in, top 2 fans in and back fan out
That seems like a lot of fans in tho
If rad is 240/280mm I'd mount top
Having more fans in is better than balanced/more out anyway
I see

but down side is you need a m.2 riser to keep ssd from dieing
thanks

Theres a component list from whcih i can choose
tryna decide whether to buy n7 b550 or new ram...
one will improve performance the other will look hot af
Guy OCed using duolingo lmao
have you actually managed to find a b550 n7 for sale
i dont think ive ever seen it in stock
Anyone reccomend a psu for a 9900k and a 3090?
I have a Ax 860 platinum atm but was told it was not enough
whoever told you that it's not enough has no idea what they're talking about
i literally ran a 3080 and a 3070 at the same time off of a 650w psu lol
granted cpu load was only at 20 watts
if it was higher it would have crashed
but yeah... 860w platinum for a 9900K + 3090 is definitely enough
enjoy your beast system
I mean if it's legit i guess ya but I've never heard of that site
can confirm antonline bundles are legit
Thats next level bundle lol
So a deal in these times lol
Kk.
It do be sold out
Lol no surprise
Whats the best m.2 for the money atm 1tb preferably?
Best bang for the buck? Usually sn550 but if atm the sk hynix p31 is 100$ so that, and it's usually the best premium m.2 that makes sense and isn't a waste of money
Upgrade question for a friend.
Current pc specs:
1060 max-Q
16gb ram
1.25 tb
unknown CPU
60hz monitor
used pc specs:
i7-10750H 2.6ghz
32 ram
2060
5tb storage
144hz monitor included
Is this used pc worth $800 for the upgrade?
Sorry, my friend doesnt have specific details on parts.
That's a great value for the price, but the real question is what kind of games is said friend looking to run?
let me ask
Because if it ain't broke, the value isn't the only question.
If he has plans for the old PC, whether it's a planned sale or repurpose, I'd say that's a pretty safe buy (given working condition)
But if he/she doesn't, and doesn't have a need to upgrade immediately, it's a bit harder to say
he said xbox exclusives mostly. So it probably would be fine
Assuming a decent condition, it's certainly worth the money.
@covert flare Perfect! Thank you!
can the check the cpu? also most likely not worth
not really they are talking about a laptop no a desktop
Hey guys I need help
So I have windows 8.1 on an hdd
But I want to get rid of that
And install windows 10 on an ssd
Can you guys help me
Just have the SSD the only drive in the PC and install Windows 10
But don’t I have to erase the 8.1 off the hdd
No
Maybe by installing this will help me with my limited acesa Ethernet problems
Aces s
Wait so all I have to do is wire the ssd
Than go in bios and????
Let me do it rn
If I want to erase it what do i d
Do
Unplug all drives except the SSD you want Windows 10 installed to. install windows 10 to it. Plug the other drives back in after you're all done
You need windows 10 installation media..............
-_-
Reason: Bad word usage
One sec
64
Well, I tried starting her up again. Good news, the RAM LED is no longer red. Now it's the Boot LED... I dunno if I should leave it on for a bit and see if it starts into BIOS or not.
Ehh give it a few minutes I'd say
I think I may have had the RAM not seated properly yesterday... Now watch me have to pull off the GPU again and check the SSD next. (But I can reconfirm lights and fans are on and working.)
Currently getting the rainbow show because I haven't had the chance to install what I need to set the colors.
Which type
So, how long should I wait before I should turn it off and start poking at what's next? (I don't have the Windows USB inserted yet, I want to see it boot to BIOS first.)
if it hasnt posted yet, pokey time
custom:install windows only
Put the BOOT USB in. NOthing to boot from = boot error 😉
Ok so it’s normal ok
Okay so my friends pc keeps randomly shutting down, and after it shuts down it wont turn on for about 5 minutes
We already unplugged stuff and plugged it back in
I think it might be the psu (cx550), anyone have any thoughts on how to fix this
The temperatures are low we tried different power outlets already
Can some help me install my cpu cooler?
So...pretty sure RAM is bad
It throws the RAM LED debug light and the PC turns on and off repeatedly
What CPU and MB?
R5 1600 and b450 tomahawk max ll
Uh... would you believe I forgot to check and make sure the screen I've got attached to the tower was turned on?
I have cpu installed but not the cooler
Use the AM4 brackets and posts/backplate
whats the pc specs?
SOLVED
run OCCT or something to test your ram
Could you get in a call with me and I will turn camera on
months of random shut offs because we used the wrong power cable
lol
do you work for an organization
No
personal
there u go
^
i think so
so you can use the pc? 
I didn’t make one
When I used the old windows
What would I recommend me to do
I
U
Can't even boot
you dont have to make a micro soft account but you have to make an account of some type
try clear cmos
are your ram in slots 2 and 4
so from cpu left to right empty, ram, empty, ram?
Could someone help me install cooler
Already did
And I've tried EVERY combination of RAM
welp
Are you stuck on the BOOT light?
It was working yesterday, that's why I'm sure it's ram and not the slots
ill hand this off to vintage, too late for me to think atm
It boots over and over, sometimes it'll boot into safe mode bios, but then it'll go back to cycling
What are we working with here? the 10400 B560 build?
I don't have a 10400 😂😂😂
I can't remember everyone's stuff
Ryzen 7 3700X, Asus Tuf x570 wifi, 2070S, 32gb(2x16gb) 3200 MHz Corsair vengeance RGB pro
cmon now
One stick ram, slot A2 only.
*cmos now
You mean ^ right?
Already done so. Gonna try again
okay,for some bizarre reason only 1 stick of ram is registering
Hey guys it done installing but I don’t see all my old thing like my games and all that
Where would that be
Ram sticks should both be in the Gray slots
I plugged in the hdd
FYI
Still do t see it
no im messing with vintage for not knowing everybodies part list lol
Ik
Well yeah you have to reinstall them all in the new OS
I was making a CMOS pun Pato
I'm half-tempted to just go ahead install Windows and sort out the ram issue later
So I ah w to reinstall all that
Yes you have to reinstall all the things to the new OS
Drivers, games, all the things
What drivers
Going to A2
Can u help me
i see i coulnt tell if you didnt understand or making pun lol
Fro PC?
Also, no selling, trading, advertising, or begging
@muted patio put it into A2 and it cycles the power on sequence
Both sticks?
or just one
how
Wait....nope
What should I install first
Accidentally pulled RAM out while it was trying to boot when I thought I shut it off
Chrome
Both sticks do that?
Yep
Even after a CMOS reset?
Yep
More poop
Seems like a ram RMA is in order
I can afford new mobo or ram
Can't RMA
Traded my MSI mobo for this from a close friend as I needed Bluetooth
I did that trade a few weeks back.
Worked fine since
@muted patio can u help me when ur free
Download drivers from your motherboard manufacturer
Well... Almost fine
Ok
Honestly seems like a ram issue
How do I check my mobo
Had a few hiccups trying to get ram above 2133
I doubt it's a CPU or MB
Well RAM, cpu, and mobo aren't that far from pricing of each other
Can't afford either
Guess I'm stuck till my new laptop comes in
Good chance the ram is kaput though
What's the issue
got ram issue sorted. now to install windows
Wish mine was fixed 😥😥
I have 3TB of games downloaded
How can I tell which one is my hdd
wait a minute lol
Storage size?
?
i just had to reseat the RAM again
I can’t tell
Stupid ASUS, should have checked the manual first. A2 is the furthest gray slot to the right
I just checked my own board XD
Put ram there
Already did
Same issues there? Still DRAM light?
Yep
Ok
Most likely ram is kaput then, odd that both sticks are dead at the same time tho
Yeah but still, it should run with an individual stick. Were you tinkering with voltages or anything?
I set it to docp but that's it
I never mess with voltages manually
Not even in simulators
And for the CMOS reset you had power unplugged from the PC for battery removal?
Or did you use the pins?
Powered off, power plug removed from psu, waited 15 minutes, pulleded CMOS battery, waited 45 minutes, plugged back in
Ah well I'll be getting a 11th gen i7 and a 3060 laptop in a few weeks
i'm hopeful i picked the right drive to put Windows on and I didn't just wipe the hdd I backed up all my files on
And then I can transfer both on my nvmes and my data drive to the laptop
Hopefully not, it shows you how much storage total is on a drive and how much is unused
I mean, everything is still on the laptop so I can recopy... it would take forever
Test time
It's slow as f, but still
but I did pick the drive that said it was unallocated so probably okay
Nice
Neat
So Rams ded
Greaaaatttt...
$240 down the drain
Lasted me almost a year too
😢
Rma time?
I don't have receipt or box anymore
Mom+spring cleaning=every box not in use getting thrown out
Adding in second RAM card
If you have model number they should allow you to rma
Bios booting
Not return, rma
I was planning on replacing them anyways, just not this soon
One last try
Nope
Going to try a different board
I forgot I had another drr4 compatible fully built system
Just need to remove the top fan
Ok...so....spare system won't even power on
Ram confirmed poo then
Yay 🙄
NOt ideal but at least you know
Always still worth rma imo
Atleast main works
They might do smth for ya
Never hurts to ask
I'll looking into RMA the RAM and then sell them
WOrst they can say is no
Mhm
Do I have to check for any windows update
Ok now why does this show up
The bottom one shows as d and e
Isn’t it suppose to be one
Can I delete everything in the d and e
Should I do this
@stoic island @muted patio put in request for RMA
:)
How long should it take to respond?
Dunno, anywhere from a day to a week normally
Dang
Found out a port on my corsair hx 1200 psu is melted....
Can I use a type 3 cable on a corsair rm750x psu
Guys should I install GeForce experience first or the driver of the card
Use GeForce experience to get the driver lol
^
Can I delete everything from e and d
Idk thats your old drive. Up to you
But I don’t what in . It
If you don't care what's on there you can delete/format it yeah
Wait guys all I did was install GeForce experience and sign it to it
Did the drivers install automatically
Ok can someone tell me the drivers I have to install
I have a spy
Apu
