I could buy a cheap double cheeseburger for like $3 but they're so tiny...
If I use a coupon I can get breakfast for $5
Bruh
I can get a chicken fillet roll in the middle of Dublin (most expensive) for like €4.50 max so like 5$ ish
It's like a proper baguette too
California problems, we have some of the highest cost of living in the world
Yeah you guys are moving up to WA state and making housing at half a million the low end
Yet there's still more people than there are houses for them. The fires burning whole towns and cities isn't helping either.
When the median rent is higher than the average mortgage in the rest of the country there's problems
Texas is a common exodus spot yeah
The cities are more like cali
2bed 1 bath rent went from $1300 up to $1800-2300 this year
Slap on 40% increase with your minimum wage increase going up by 3%... have fun catching up
Getting a little too political for my liking so I'll duck out
I do plan on leaving first chance I get but I can't save enough to move 
Yeah they're still little so hard to move, especially with mom being afraid of flying and she's set to take over a business for her aging boss
I just got a government job so I might be able to transfer later easily, but other things are still tying us down
I've been here most of my life, except when I was in the military
Good case, which one are you replacing with?
I need a new case too so I can do the custom loop I want, considering the torrent once they figure out the hub issue
If not the torrent (which I like for the fill ports) prob 5000d
Damm rip, for the equivalent of 7$ here(we have 23% tax as well) I'd easily be able to get a drink and a nice hot sammich
ill just post in general
That d15 is WAY overpriced
And make sure the GPU you end up getting fits in the Mini C
Then don't spend more than the best liquid cooler
That power supply is an explosion risk
anything else?
They all are affected unless it's one of the new ones with the lowered OCP limit
With a 3060 you don't need A tier
This C tier would be fine tbh https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/3hkwrH/corsair-power-supply-cp9020102na
Yep, only us and possibly canada do that weird tax thing
Tis what the scythe fuma 2 is for
new deepcool as500 plus is also quite good apparently.
Unfortunately scythe not in some regions tho 
pa120/fs140 more based
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JvHx7X build for a friend with a $1300 budget
ssd mate
looking kinda trash
also go revo df rn
850
its like 5$ more
Thought I changed the ssd rip
put an au. before pcpartpicker and watch the price double
Ok now it’s actually fixed lol
how is tgat fixed
a
Both of those are $40 more Im pretty sure
wd did a sneaky and changed parts. shouldnt support that
oh no, someone who parrots the sn550 bad thing
read my reason child
what games do they play?
It ain’t as good anymore
I myself have an sn550 kek
by your logic we shouldnt be buying like, anything
p31 didnt change parts nor did mushkin
lmfao
only fir large file transfers and suff. still good for gaming and normal use
Ehhh
ehhh
they've all done shady stuff. not just swapping parts
it's hard to avoid
source?
burden of proof is on you
you think the people that manufacture mushkin's and hynix's products are treated equitably?
…
you were the one who claimed they did shady stuff im asking for ur source and gut feeling aint it
yep
wait, so the people who work in their factories DO have a fair wage?
no source should be needed for that. it's pretty obvious
im not claiming anything I cant prove. However you did make claims and im asking you for proof
can you prove using facts and sources that they dont get paid fairly?
lmao
large factories and automation in processing
Wages average around at 57k with the top10% being at 100k
At Hynix semiconductor manufacturing America
And they just raised wages by 8.07% this year
Reason: Bad word usage
automation? that stuff is expensive
Pretty much every factory has it now
and the products that come off the line arent being handed off freely either
Big investment, even bigger returns
well, it's more like half-and-half
Aegis im yet to see a shred of fact or proof in ur arguments
regardless. the sn550 is still a good budget ssd for anything that doesn't deal with a lot of large files
if you cant provide either please dont argue
bro. Trust me bro. Just think about bro
and supporting a sleazy move like swapping components hoping no one realizes is something people with logic and common sense wont do
having said that, I can see why you still recommend it
whats happening
scroll up and read
lol
It's too hard to say anything about Hynix or Mushkin without hard evidence, but it's true that sn550 is still good for most people, even though the slc cache is quite small at 12gb, after it runs out of the slc cache, 400MB/s isn't bad in general, though about half of before.
What time does bestbuy drop their cards?
I know every 15 days but I don't know the time
it's random, iirc
BOYS
what is the cheapest and best cooler for i7-10700kf
is the cooler master hyper 212 good enough?
No, hyper 212 just isn't good full stop, depending on region, scythe fuma 2
Which NZXT aio has the heatsink where you can put images onto it or even view the temps on the heatsink?
z-series.
pa120
The stupid expensive one, z ones i think
No
Z63 240mm is $250
Don't ever get a 120mm aio
It's only a 8th gen i3
Just get a mid range air cooler at that point
Just get the 240mm it's not much more anyway (or at least shouldn't be)
And it's a request from my brother do... But yeah at that price I might as well do a custom loop
On an 8th gen i3
Just get them a gammaxx 400 or id cooling se 224xt or vetroo v5
But yeah no, might go enermax or Id-cooling
That will plenty
Go a enermax 240
I'm running an enermax on my 7 3700 for a year and a half no, no issues
And same for the enermax 360
It's $85
Mkay
I rather prefer the quality on arctic
Besides their liquid freezer ii aios comes with 6 years warranty
Believe it's 8?
Yeah indood
@frank stirrup tbh i apologize, i should do more research before making claims like that
after looking at mushkin's manufacturing job rating doesnt actually look that bad
however i omly did the bare minimum
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Bktmwz this is my pc rn
prettyu based 
Not bad for an entry level pc but could use upgrades but its alright
tips for building a simple desktop for school?
wana leep it as absolute budget as possble
Anyone know how good this is
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/f7YmP6/msi-b450-tomahawk-max-ii-atx-am4-motherboard-b450-tomahawk-max-ii
Like, i think it has bios flashback
Are there any power cons or something
Go intel with integrated graphics
Don't buy b450s anymore, just get a b550
B550 boards are a lot better
didn't I tell you yesterday not to go b450
if you're just looking for someone to agree with you you're in the wrong place
morning pato
that's the exact board I linked that guy yesterday LOL
"is this good i just bought it"
XD
I don't even see any valid reason to become fixated on that board
youtube video from 2018???
it's not particularly good looking
B450 was good like until b550 came
lacks several modern features
anyone have any experince with the amd a10 chip?
outdated chipset
only get it if it's the best you can afford
it's worth about $5
lmaoooooooo
...why?
What
ok
that a10 chip is so bad you will feel it holding you back on modern websites
it's built on an architecture that was so bad that it almost bankrupted AMD
until ryzen came out and saved them
I think its micro atx
Ima check, if it is that prolly reason i dident go 4 it
B450 is just outdated, period
even if you're a looks > performance person which you clearly seem to be
I only use it cause I bought it about 2 years ago
the b450 tomahawk max has no argb headers
lol
I bought it for my first build based off of youtube videos
but it was okay cause b550 didn't exist yet
yeeted it into a flip and upgraded to a b550 aorus elite no regrets
onboard audio on the b450 tomahawk max is surprisingly bad at the price point
other boards there carrying at least ALC1200
I went from ALC897 (b450 tomahawk max) to ALC1200 (b550 aorus elite) to ALC1220 (b550 steel legend) and each one was actually a noticeable step up
I have full confidence I would pass a blind test
$80 b450 is still the way to go for super budget imo
disagree tbh
if you wanna go super budget b450 pick up a used one for $40
no point spending $80 on b450
I meant used yeah, didn't know they were that cheap already
if you're going super budget motherboard quality isn't very important since you're probably not running CPU or ram that's going to really push it
saw a gigabyte b450m ds3h the other day for $40
was tempted to pick it up for an APU build
but I don't wanna build any new PCs until I sell what I have
I have an srm-01b-450 that's been sitting around that I want to put to work
would be a great board to pair with a 3200g/3400g
What are 3600 going for on hwswap
like 150 for the cheap ones
not that low but not many people selling used 10400s
10400s getting sold for 130-140 when they're there
lol someone sold one for 135 shipped to canada
they ate a big loss on that one
probably at least $20 shipping
I want to buy reaper's 8086k lol, has one new in box
Those things sell for $200 ebay sometimes
And if it's un-delidded, pretty hard to degrade
I'd run it in my m9a, once I un-bork the bios
I was thinking about upgrading the 6600k + z170 gaming m5 my friend gave me to coffee lake
vrm's won't catch fire?
but the problem is that the 6600k is delidded and not resealed with only the socket holding it in
so it would be hard to sell lol
Just use some silicone rtv
looks fine for gaming
not prime95
hard to find info on the exact vrms but it's 6 phase ISL something with doublers
good to know
funny how these skylake era mobo reviews basically didn't give a crap about mobo vrms
guess nothing in skylake gen had significant power draw though
nowadays detailed vrm information is a big focus LOL
And? Nothing wrong with that but there's better atx options just the one i said is cheapest and has wifi which is nice
it's got decent looking heatsinks though and 12 phases of even the most basic vrms shouldn't be too bad
I'm sure it could run an 8700k in gaming without frying itself
my z370 extreme4 looked worse on the heatsink front but ran the 8700k fine as long as you didn't ask it to run prime95
would hit vrm throttling about 30 minutes into that
it's amazing seeing every single review either not mention vrms or just gloss over it with "it has cool heatsink and 12 phases" without elaborating further
even the tech spec page doesn't mention it lol
LGA 1151 Z170 / Z270 / Z370 / Z390 VRM Liste
Unterschiedliche Versorgungsspannungen für Prozessoren auf dem Sockel 1151:
VCC, die Versorgungsspannung für die Prozessorkerne
VCCGT, die Versorgungsspannung für den integrierten Grafikprozessor
VCCSA, die Versorgungsspannung für (Kern-)Peripherie...
I've seen this before in my search
sadly the board I have isn't on it
Just test 150w heat load and measure back of board temp for a rough estimate of fire potential, lol
mm
Unless the power stages have temp sensors
not that hard to push an 8700k to almost double that
on ambient
i'd probably have to mod it just to see 150w though
haven't been able to get a 7700K that high
also don't really want to pull my 7700K out of the board it's in cause it's also delidded without reseal
and i think i'm running out of LM
MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard this does have bios flash?
im considering
yes
microatx boards also look fine in atx cases as long as you do the cable management correctly
imo routing front panel cables like this looks much better than using the bottom holes for microatx
Route em behind the mobo
You supposed to pierce the back of the mobo to get them through xD
ah yes I love punching holes in motherboards
YOU STOLE MY JOKE REEE
can I steal your heart
anyone know where the issue is? so i have a 4000x case and the rgb fans that it comes with isnt lighting up but the same exact fans that i bought using the same controller is lighting up
well it's corsair, so

👉👈
Did you plug the controller into the motherboard?
why do you have to ask tgat
ya other wise the other fans wont have rgb 😆
Isn't that the problem lol
basically same controller but the fans i bought are working but the ones that came with the case isnt
no it is plugged in xD
Because it can be forgotten nobodys perfect
sell the corsair fans 🙏
Ehh rgb is a mess imma just dip out of this one, kinda dont go near with 10ft pole
corsair rgb specifically
I like standardized rgb
I'll stay far away from corsair
My 6700xt gpu logo is not lighting up, I have xfx 6700xt merch
please just sell the fans or the case or both. niether are good
see if xfx has their own software
Idont think they have it tbh
its not my build xD im just building it for free for a friend
Go to the 6700xt merc website page then downloads
ahhhh
Is custom water-cooling worth doing?
I dont see anything
if you have to ask the answer is no
More of a statement value (along with I assume cooler temperature, but not that much cooler compared to price)
Just get an aio and a good airflow case
aios are good enough
custom loops are more for the looks or if you really wanna pay $500 to squeeze out the last 2 degrees
or run direct die kit
@earnest olive @fossil cedar
what
oh god
are you running 1.366v manual oc
oh god please stop
reset bios right now
and don't overclock again until you do some research
you are in the extreme danger zone already
why does it say 46.5 cpu ratio then
Idk
Can you really oc from simple view lel
I'd clear cmos anyway
oh
Then go back in and enable xmp and pbo and leave it
I don't understand why people don't make a bigger fuss out of msi auto oc
it's stupidly dangerous
Aye
Like why even make it
That's what pbo is lmao
At least for Ryzen 3000 and up
damage to the cpu can happen in mere minutes at that voltage
Bets they've been running that for months with 2666?. 

Clear cmos might be a better choice
?
xmp on, cpu off
How about now
@inland parrot go advanced mode
simple mode is really sad
should be a button at the top
f7 or something
ah nice much better, go to oc
oh wait don't scroll down on that
I was fooled into thinking that was the whole screen for some reason
I mean like they are all set on auto
scroll up on the previous screen
xmp should've been at the top when you clicked OC settings at the start
I didn't see it at the top so I thought they moved it into advanced dram configuration for some reason
Wait 1.45v is normal for 5800x right? Pbo enabled
since profile 1 and 2 are the same thing this time, that's fine
pbo does pbo things with boosting
1.45v manual will prob degrade the chip to hell
pbo prob fine
make sure you have scalar and LLC set to AUTO
1.45v on pbo is safe as long as you have those settings on auto
making those settings anything besides auto disables the built in silicon protection
yes, 1.45v manual would be able to damage your processor in less than a minute on the right load lol
p95 p95 p95 
mmm comfy fire

Well i want light
I need RGB to see my keyboard and mouse at night
And some in pc just to see if it's on fire or not 😂
Get a fan or strip?
Anyone here have a gaming. Pc part list they have around $2k? And could someone check it to see if it’s good bc I want to build me one bc I know it’s better to build one than buy a prebuilt bc it’s a little cheaper
Didn’t we put one together for you like yesterday?
lol
But people kept changing it
Send the one that everyone changed
Did you save the last iteration they sent you
^
No I didn’t bc no one confirmed it was good
My messages? I’m not the one that sent the part list
Nah I was off doing my own thing
Rip
I get distracted easily
Well then your msges before they made em
Ah or have the great Alec find it
Does it have WiFi integrated? Or do I have to get a WiFi card?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hgcRDc before i buy the majority of the rest of this, anything to change?
gpu will be there till i can afford / economy goes down for gpu, plan on getting a 3080/3080ti
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/F3tkxc @little osprey
Do you already have that ssd? I recommend an NVME if not
What’s it for?
Oh boy
?
the 1tb, i have, the nvme, no
What does the warning mean at the bottom?
Wait nvm it didn't load the nvme for some reason lol
Don’t worry about that
@queen dagger change the 980 pro to a p31 1tb tbh
More storage, practically probably faster
gaming at high settings while streaming, playing back high qualty video, 4k video editing (buying more ram eventually), FiveM dev work pssoible
but like isnt that PCIe gen 3? im looking for gen 4 so i can use the gen 4 slot
I’m a little worried bc I’ve never spent this much money b4 and I seen the 50% restocking fees on the sites if I was to return something 😅
cuz it has it why not use it
lol you won't be saturating even a gen3 slot bandwidth
ok so thats changed, any other things that are questionable?
i highly doubt you practically need a gen4 m.2
I like this chart
fair
Can someone check this list b4 I settle down on this and tell me what the warning means at the bottom? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/F3tkxc
p31 is neato
Would change motherboard for aorus elite ax for personal preference, but gaming edge wifi works fine
Bios flashback on the motherboard means you can update the bios without needing another chip, which would make the warning unnecessary @little osprey
I asked for WiFi integrated so I don’t have to get a WiFi card so they changed it to that for me and oh okay
but yeah is there anything else that should be changed?
Case is personal preference, lancool ii mesh is good, but I like td500 mesh is better, but both cases are good
Don't need to change much else for you @queen dagger
Can't see that much else you're buying anyways
@queen dagger wait do you have the GPU yet or
mhm
Might want to get a GPU first
And also as a reminder, when prices settle down, 4080 probably came out already
That's what you think
Who knows what's going to be the cyberpunk 2077 of next year :p

I was talking about for the gpu
Hello everyone, I decide to buy ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XIII HERO LGA 1200 Intel Z590 . Beside that I’d like to install 2 Corsair M600 pro which it’s a kind of M.2 2210 PCIe. However this mainboard only has 1 slot for 2210. So, Can I install the other to 2280. If I do so, does the GPU will get hit with those two M.2? Please help me out, thank you so much.
22110 is too long to fit in 2280 slots
Where does it say that drive is 22110
Thank you. Anyways, the corsair M600 is too high. So, Does it get hit with the GPU if I install both M600 on the main.
You probably don't need gen 4 drives anyway, what are you using them for?
For gaming
You really don't need gen 4 then, in gaming most gen 4 drives are slower than good gen 3 drives
This one will be faster and cheaper https://www.amazon.com/SK-hynix-Internal-3500MB-Compact/dp/B099RHVB42
That's one of the best gaming drives because the random read/write speeds are godly
I see some video on youtube, Corsair M600 loads game really fast
Check this chart
It beats the Samsung 980 Pro, one of the best gen 4 drives
The mp600 is a fantastic choice if you have too much money and want to get rid of some
Load times between even sata and fast nvme are only about a second difference anyway
Thank you for all your comments
Real question is why that motherboard? It’s a waste of money for 99% of people
Some people like to burn money just because
Not really give me like 10 minutes
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/NRwDt8 @ancient peak
What’s up?
I put in a 1TB nvme
And you included 2 air coolers lol
And that HDD is one of the best rn
5400rpm isn’t that big of a deal
Oh my bad about the air coolers
All good lol
Take your pick on color
And just remove one
Shoot also remove that P31
Forgot to remove that one
Jeez I’m a mess today
Lol i aint paying 214 for an nvme, its nearly 100 more than the sn550
All im doing is gaming
Battlefield 2042 to be exact
Baby back aye
Rule 9
Rip lol
Thats the exact same build lol but thanks
Not quite, changed to the SN550 and Barracuda for that 7200 rpm
Ah I see
Yes, im an aussie
I ride my kangaroo to school and do heavy drugs in class
My friend just snorted an aspirin tablet, we love sience first period on a wednesday

Guys I brought a samsung 980 m.2 MZ-V8V1T0B/AM Is this one better than the 970 m.2 and evo from the chart that was posted earlier today?
Should be, it's a newer model so it should be faster, but i would have stuck with the 970
nsw
was in qld before
I brought a Samsung 980 1TB was on sale on newegg and I paid 100usd
Good deal i guess, how many gbs/tbs

if u decide to build a pc use this guide
In this video I show you some tips and tricks when building a PC
I've built alot of computers there was no cable management area in that case
what case
Nvm
oh ok
Should i undervolt my gpu to get lower temps
Your choice
Poor yoinkus I don’t think he knows what a vacuum is
So how can i ruduce my gpu temps for my 5700xt gaming x gpu
Question is there a way that i can get low temps with slient fans
Put on headphones and turn up the fan curve
Is what I do
Keeps my ventus under 70 when under load
Lol
anyone here wanna help ya boi out with some software issues? $
Just ask the question my dude
Turn down the power limit
Hello
I just reinstalled windows on my old pc what do I need to get
I'm downloading chrome rn
gpu drivers
list of mobo drivers
hwinfo64
cpuz
gpuz
3dmark
occt
cinebench
Okay what if I'm not gunna use this pc as my main pc
So just gpu driver mobo and cpu
Then nothing
I'm gunna mine on pc
If you're going to mine you need the GPU and mobo drivers at least, and software to overclock with
is the msi mag series coreliquid 360r a bad 360mm aio?
on new egg a lot of peopel said it broke after like 6 months
oh wait wrong channel for this question
It’s not the best
Maybe you'll be lucky and it'll work for you
is it like worth it for 121 dollars
No
Okay
That's the best AIO right now overall
whats the best one overall with argb 🙂
well i guess ill just stick with the one i ordered till it breaks lol
im in a time constraint
cause im going away 21-25
so cant reallyt order longer shipping things rn
Are you not in the US? This one is on prime 2 day shipping
@potent portal okay I got gpu driver but nothing for mobo I am on the site but I don't think I need any of them
the artic argb one soonest shipping is sep 20
You must be outside the normal shipping area then
Weird
What motherboard is it? I guarantee it needs at least 3 drivers
Msi Z370-pro
A-Pro or Gaming Pro Carbon?
its a long story, to shorten it up, i cant get a clean windows install on this comp, cant even download win to a USB. its honestly a long story nightmare
a pro
if you don't cool your cpu can you cook breakfast on it (this is a joke)
Um
Chipset, lan, and VGA driver i assume
Why vga
Does your processor model have a "f" at the end?
If not you have integrated graphics that you should use instead of the dGPU when you're mining
it for the cpu that dont have gpu
Is this a good adpater for wifi
Archers are usually good yes
just buy a motherboard with wifi
Oh I'll chnage ports rn
Wait
Just post a link to the listing instead lol, also tplink ax SKUs have tons of issues, google the model number and see
You want me to use dgpu or igpu
iGPU for display when you're mining, so your dGPU can get an extra 0.2MH
I’d look at the reviews first also I’d do what forks had said best way to answer your question
Lol
Skip it then
Mobo site drivers aren't usually the latest, only the tested and verified versions
I plug my monitor into igpu but it no turn on
Do I habe to shut pc down then turn on
does it work with icue
I’d make sure whatever cable you are using is inserted all the way into both ports also maybe unplugging and replugging would work but anything past that could be a few different things
I’ve had it where my computer was fully working but my cable was being weird unplugging it and replugging it back in fixed the problem
No
But iCue can be pretty bad anyway, I've seen it use 12% of a 5950X at idle
yo wtf
it only uses 0.8-2.2% of my cpu
It depends on how many things you're controlling with it mostly
Try this one, latest non-beta driver https://downloadmirror.intel.com/646152/igfx_win_100.9805.exe
Okay downloading
@potent portal okay a box pop up saying something like allow access so I click yes and nothing happened after that
Oh
Just took it a few minutes
@potent portal nope still not turning on
Okay I restarted pc now it woeks
Is 150ft too much for ethnent and if I was going to get ethnet how long should it be
My friends gpu recently died, he just got a new one (newer) but it wont display (old card was a geforce gtx 1080 ti, new one is a gigabyte gtx 1660 ti)
anyone know how we could get it to possibly boot?
display*
yes, I walked him through it
the only thing we havent tried is a new power cable, the cards fans boot but the lights on it doesnt display
I mean like on the motherboard
no error codes or error leds show up, the card initially lights up then goes off but the fans stay on with no display
im personally thinking it might be an issue with the power cable, he was pushing a 1080 ti through a daisy chain instead of 2 seperate wires
Does it have igpu?
nope
I dont think so any way, its an intel i5 5 something or 4 something
its a little older
we are trying a new wire now
well, different pcie power didnt fix it
it doesnt have an Igpu and im honestly at a stand still rightnow, I cant think of anything else
the cpu is an i7-6700
without a "k" does it still have integrated?
yes
if it has an F
then it doesnt have igpu
like a 10600kf
k = overckockable i guess
ks = very good
kf = overclockable but no igpu
ok, we have tried using the motherboard to use Igpu but still no display we have tried hdmi and dvi, is there a way to enable igpu or is it always on?
Anybody here have a good gaming laptop they use daily?
intel celeron
4gb ram
intel hd graphics
33 wh battery
I’m looking for a gaming laptop around $2k
could it be the motherboard then if integrated doesnt work?
hmm
am think
usd?
Yeah
do u want light and portable or raw performance
this whole issue started after his cat bounced on the top of it, they bought a new gpu because the old one didnt work in any computer and the new wont wont work in his pc either
It doesn’t have to be $2k it could be less, just enough to play Minecraft and to try out fortnite and maybe other games in the future but rn just fortnite and Minecraft
ok
I may end up just getting the razer laptop I found
show
this seems ok
its 2050
tho
im not very good at sticking with budgets am i
or this
It’s okay, I don’t care if it’s a little over
I don’t understand why there are never reviews on these laptops
me neither
@clever eagle he just recieved it in the mail, would it help testing it on a working pc? cause I mean the pc may have other issues if the igpu doesnt work
yes it would help trying it in a different rig
im a bit worried cause I cant help them, they are in australia and im in florida, they only have 1 pc left, if he messes up then they both lose pcs
what seems to be the issue
the issue started while playing warzone, his pc suddenly shut down and when rebooted would not display. we have tried using the integrated gpu off of the i7 6700 but that wont work either, they bought a new card (1660 ti) after trying the 1080 ti on the working rig and determining the card was dead. the new card would not work on the broke rig so they just went to test it on the working rig
Is the 300+ hz screen even believable or no? It just seems really hard to believe that a laptop could get that much
It can do 300hz but acer nitro laptops are built like garbage
Like the build quality is bad
Wouldnt buy an acer nitro
it can
true
Can you find me a gaming laptop that is good quality? For around $2,000?
That’s pretty cheap compared to the ones I’ve been looking at
@clever eaglethey tested it in the working pc and the card doesnt work. that still doesnt explain the igpu not working but i think the 1660 was a dupe, the guy they bought it from only video shared it working, they didnt get to see it in person
Nah its a great deal imo
the fans work but the gpu doesnt display and the rgb lights dont light up
Does Newegg do full refunds on stuff if I either don’t like or it doesn’t work?
im not good with usd
if it doesnt work then probably
yes
on that one it will
Oh okay, yeah I just found the 30 day no hassle thing
yes
this is the same issue we are having, we have tried all the options at the botton and nothing, someone said use the intel onboard but it doesnt work and we dont know how to troubleshoot it if someone could give a hand
last thing I can think of is resseting the cmos
if this doesnt work, I may just kick the bucket on computers
If there was a power surge it's possible that the motherboard was damaged. Some lower tier power supplies have poor protections against that kind of thing.
the error light is now flashing dram and cpu after a cmos reset
It's possible the CPU is damaged then. It's hard to narrow down the issue without being able to swap parts.
You could do that, might be better to just get a couple new parts to swap around that you can return if they're not the problem part. Alternatively bring it to a local shop or microcenter and they can swap parts to test.
im in florida, the person with the issues is in west austrailia
Local shop then. Whatever preferred location. That would be the fastest way to find the problem parts.
hey how to conenct a anti static braclet when building my pc
there should be a metal clip, connect that to metal, normally the case
personally, never used them, just dont do anything to cause static and you are good
clip it to my hand?
i touch the i-o shield A LOT
so
my body is kinda buggy
and i dont like that
the braclet should have a piece connected to it that runs to a clip, you can clip that to metal
Aitt hurtt
ok
so the anti static will move the electric to the metal piece that i clip into?
if it doesnt look how I described, send a screenshot
I dont know how electricity or static works, I just know proper anti static tools ground you so it doesnt kill the parts
and also i dont want to be shoock lol
are you fixing to build a pc?
ah, I built mine on top of a wood desk, sitting on a wood floor, without socks, and i didnt wear baggy clothing, if you do that you should be good
what
you have a wood table
i have FLOOR
concrete
it is good?
concrete should be fine, I dont think that causes any static, just dont slide your feet around alot
i do that quite a lot.....
go with the bracelet then
nah i think it will be fine
I often do socks on carpet and I've never had a problem. Just touching the back unpainted metal once in a while.
towards the end of my build I had to set it on a table and I sat in a leather chair on carpet. because of my dyskinetic cerebral palsey its difficult to stand for long let alone short periods of time. I kept grounding myself to the case and the pc runs like a charm so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
It was a 1tb m.2
And i gave alternative 😤
One sec I got the perfect one
As sips puts it “This is perfection in a laptop” https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16834233457
Can you find me a gaming pc For around $2,750?
^same for around $2000? Or to be specific 1.5lack INR
Prebuilt?
Custom
ye even 3000$
Could try this
https://www.newegg.com/abs-ali555/p/N82E16883360185
I gave him a list the other day
Oh fun
yo does anyone wanna help me with upgrading my pc? :D
What do you currently have
gtx 1050ti
2x8 2400mhz
A320M-S2H-CF (AM4)
AMD Ryzen 5 2400G
What's your budget for an upgrade
@unborn shell then to start off would be CPU+Mobo+ram upgrade, and by the way, what case and what PSU?
3060 can do 1080p well, 1440p it'll struggle on more intensive titles without dlss
1080
144hz right ?
yes
sweet ~
Yes
Cooler Master Tc102 Mid Tower ATX
and a 500w power supply
Thanks : D
you might want to just sell that and get a new everything
' _ '
how much do you think i could sell that for?
I'd keep the 1050 ti for the moment until you can find a better graphics card
The rest of the system might sell for 250?
ah
That's a guesstimate tho i don't keep up on used pc pricing as a whole
true, the chip you have has an integrated gpu, so you can take out the 1050ti and still have a functioning machine
so i should sell the pc and buy a new one keeping the 1050ti ?
pretty much, yes
its good enough till you get more money for a proper GPU
Ehh ideally upgrade but we in the middle of a shortage of gpus so it's good enough for the moment
Better than integrated graphics
MUCH better
pretty much
Your motherboard cant accept a better processor. Your ram is too slow. The CPU is good enough for word processing. your PSU will not be safe for more powerful hardware.
up to you
wait
Pato seems to be the guru for picking bits for a particular budget
are you gonna build your pc now?
i kinda want to pick parts and all so...
what budget
my is kinda expesnive
about 1000$ and i was told to sell my pc for 250 and keep my gtx 1050 ti
so you dont need a gpu?
if i should sell it then i do need one but if its better to keep it and upgrade the rest of the computer then i dont need
i think you should keep
gpu shortage EVERYWHERE
ok let see
you could go for the ryzen 5 3600
6 core 12 threads
alr
wait let me build you one
thanks :D
so you good with the 5 3600?
im good with it as long as its in my budget and an upgrade from what i have rn
oh ok :)
oh wait
you could gor for the 5 5600x
it faster and cheaper
still 6 core and 12 threads
from what i can see its not cheaper-
currently for budget builds, AMD is not it.
._.
intel is good too
11400 seems to be the way to go
but amd is for multitasking
Nah i wouldn't put anything else on an a320
smart
Budget?
i need to find a place that sells it to my place
Nvm on it
thats what I said 😉
about 1k and i can sell my current pc for 250 and keep my 1050ti
11400f?
No 3600 hasn't been a good choice in ages
Ahh i read can
the 11400f pretty good
Okay
11400 is wack price in us atm
epic gamers gpu
F OR NON F
i see an 11400f for 300
5 5600x is 278
im looking on prices from israel if i should look to order out of state tell me ok?
