kind vortex
#

my current buildhttps://pcpartpicker.com/user/quanmen/saved/wVRcHx

#

pretty buggy

grizzled verge
#

I think your cpu is a bit overkill for your gpu

#

I suggest go for a lower cpu like a 3600 if your planning to go for a 1650

fossil cedar
kind vortex
#

ok

grizzled verge
#

Then the remaining funds go for a 144hz monitor rather than a 75hz

#

Just my opinion though getstickbugged

unborn shell
#

ahh

#

._.

grizzled verge
#

Best bet is go for a 2nd hand gpu lmao

But it's plenty

#

Also unless you have it already don't buy it

#

Get the b560

unborn shell
#

im looking at this build with no gpu and im amazed that it can be this pricey

grizzled verge

Not Lazada

grizzled verge
#

The i5 10400f with that mobo cost around 280 bucks

kind vortex
#

buddget 23.000.000 vnd

grizzled verge
#

Is that a good deal?

stoic island
#

Use shopee for things

fossil cedar
kind vortex
#

which = 1000$

stoic island
#

Lazada is like a SEA retailer

fossil cedar
#

Ahh

stoic island
#

And it's the bane of my existence

grizzled verge
#

SEA retail

stoic island
#

South east asia

#

Shopee just better

grizzled verge
#

280 bucks for an i5 10th gen with a mobo is it good for the price?

stoic island
#

What Mobo tho

kind vortex
stoic island
#

B560, yes, b460, prob not

grizzled verge
#

I think the exchange for peso to dollar got more expensive thats why its more expensive in dollars

kind vortex
#

there are scam everywhere on shoppe

grizzled verge
#

Yeah b560

fossil cedar
stoic island
#

And not Lazada? >:P

grizzled verge
#

I dont normally uwe shopee and lazada

#

Just go for local storea

#

Or if your gonna use it make sure its a trusted store

stoic island
#

Local stores do work nicely when possible

grizzled verge
#

I go for easypc

#

I can recommend both of that stores

I use them when i buy pc parta

can someone make a computer for 1000 usd

stoic island
#

What's your use case?

tawny violet
little osprey
#

can the TUF GAMING B460M-PLUS motherboard support 2 gpus? cant send the link

desert gulch
#

it can

#

just may not run at full bandwidth in second slot

#

i dont think you can sli or crossfire tho

fossil cedar
#

Yes but don't buy it if you haven't already bought it and it's in a build

fossil cedar
little osprey
desert gulch
little osprey
#

how come?

desert gulch
#

3070 cant bridge

#

so itd be p much pointless

fossil cedar
little osprey
#

i was planning to use it for crypto mining

fossil cedar
little osprey
#

yeah

desert gulch
#

o mining then maybe

little osprey
#

but will the mobo allow the gpu to run at full?

fossil cedar
#

You'd need to make sure the board has enough spacing for the 2nd 3070 bte

desert gulch
#

not at full

#

but thats not needed

fossil cedar
desert gulch
#

mining doesnt need full bandwidth

fossil cedar
#

@little osprey have you already purchased the motherboard?

tawny violet
#

Pato, how TF does someone bend their CPU?

fossil cedar
#

The pins

tawny violet
#

Or is Ryzen just that badly built?

little osprey
#

from newegg

little osprey
tawny violet
#

I'd suspect it's them forcing it, not a problem with the chip

desert gulch
tawny violet
#

I don't think I ever bent any pins in my life

fossil cedar
tawny violet
#

Just don't try to push it in of it doesn't just drop into place

Ryzen 9 5900x + RtX 3090 or i9 10900k + rtx 3090???!

I personally like them on the chip
Since you can technically fix it if you bend or break it with common enough tools and a bit of bravery
But the mobo-mounted pins are much harder to repair outside of the factory

fossil cedar
little osprey
jagged ember
#

But why not mine on the one you already have?

little osprey
fossil cedar
little osprey
#

to mine some more

tawny violet
#

It's not worth to buy a GPU to mine now

jagged ember
#

Just don't use it as a main income source

desert gulch
#

im guessing if its a prebuilt that psu also wouldnt take another 3070

jagged ember
#

That's all I'll say lol

tawny violet
#

Crypto is basically dying slowly

fossil cedar
desert gulch
jagged ember
#

Oh no

little osprey
desert gulch
#

prolly doesnt have enough connectors

jagged ember
#

750w can't run 2 3070 right?

fossil cedar
jagged ember
#

Not enough physical connectors?

tawny violet
desert gulch
little osprey
fossil cedar
desert gulch
#

depends on if its a good 750

tawny violet
#

Especially with the huge crypto farms

fossil cedar
tawny violet
#

I don't really see home miners making much of anything on their time and electricity

fossil cedar
tawny violet
#

Not anymore anyway

jagged ember
#

Miners still make profits

little osprey
tawny violet
#

Unless some new major crypto comes up that's not saturated yet

little osprey

Might not be thousands of dollars

'Miners caused the entire shortage, singlehandedly'

stoic island

miners don't want specialized hardware

Lmao

stoic island

if they do, it's called ASICs

tawny violet

Miners buy up everything

stoic island

that's what you want to believe

They literally snatched up a whole damn shipment of new AMD GPUs

i dont have a problem with miners

now, minors on the other hand

I have a problem with miners, coal mining is dangerous

tawny violet

175 million dollars of 30-series

That went directly to miners

fossil cedar
tawny violet

And Nvidia knows who they're selling to

stoic island

The question is, where did the data come from

fossil cedar
stoic island

bleach buys like 10 GPUs

#

he makes builds and sells builds

undone osprey
#

miners dont buy up everything tbh 🙂

stoic island
#

demonmit buys like 20 gpus, he also makes builds and sells builds

stoic island
#

are they the miners that are buying up all the gpus?

undone osprey

all gpus are just over msrp rn so like whatever

Allegedly :D

tawny violet

Now it doesn't decking work

#

But yes the reason we are in a shortage is because of miners

#

This is absolutely true facts

#

And no false fakeness

stoic island
#

2.27 Billion to gamers too, according to the report @tawny violet

#

:)

jagged ember
#

Not because there's supply issues

#

Or unprecedented demand

undone osprey

there was already a shortage miners only made it worse

Everything is just piledriving

jagged ember

Yeah but everyone blames them

winged lion

when the shortage is barly miners

jagged ember
#

It's not their fault entirely

#

We are all at fault

undone osprey
#

the shortage is partly the miners fault but they weren't the reason the shortage started

tawny violet
#

We are the problem now

stoic island
#

everything contributes to everything

jagged ember
#

Because everyone and their dog wants a new gpu

winged lion
#

BARLY EVERYTHING

stoic island
#

but that doesn't mean miners are what caused the shortage

tawny violet
#

Almost like everyone is stuck inside and wants to game lmfao

stoic island

nor that miners aren't affecting the shortage

I mean you can't get a console either

Actually yeah

stoic island

tbh

jagged ember
#

Pandemic also contribute

stoic island
#

from my perspective, too much blame on just the pandemic when it was the global logistical system that was already on it's knees before the pandemic

tawny violet
#

Demand was largely caused by the pandemic lockdowns

jagged ember
#

And yes

#

Interconnectivity caused a global supply collapse

stoic island
#

just couldn't get things from one place to another

jagged ember
#

I will soon understand how networks can explain this collapse

tawny violet
#

Sure logistics were shot before
But it at least held up to normal demand
The skyrocketing killed it

undone osprey

doesnt help that chip manufacturers are raising the prices soon either

nah who needs medical service i just lay and pray

There is I believe a 5 year wait list on CT machines for hospitals because there isn't enough computer chips to make the control units

Yeah so less cars = more cts

there are chips that used to cost cents that are now costing tens to hundreds of dollars afaik

tawny violet
undone osprey
#

theres a reason why theres less cars...

ancient crown
undone osprey
#

when chip production goes back up then car production will too

potent portal
#

Less cars also equals us not hitting our goals of replacing cars with electric because they're too expensive

tawny violet
#

Can't know for sure tho

tawny violet
#

Also where do you get enough batteries?

#

You grab big, diesel-guzzling machines and dig up the rainforest

Yeah it was some pretty lofty goals already, and I know electric cars aren't that much better in the long run

If you like history, the reading can be fun

I liked history and enjoyed my APUSH outline readings

stoic island

but also dif teachers dif styles of reading

undone osprey
#

its literally about stuff we learned before

stoic island
#

I don't think my apush teacher ever assigned a reading longer than just the constitution

covert vapor
#

Any US history class will be about stuff you learned before, they've been pounding US history into your head since Elementary school, it is just that the later classes go a bit more in depth

potent portal
stoic island

Although most of the history I learnt in my apush class wasn't covered by previous education

stoic island
#

I love history and I hate dates

potent portal

I did in my class

stoic island
#

the only date I can remember was 1453 siege of Constantinople

Yeah, I never had to memorize dates, mostly just order of events at worst

you can say that about a lot of famous people

Not even in the assignments

stoic island
stoic island
#

especially around ww1 time

#

spanish american war

#

oh wait misread it, but yea

covert vapor
#

We didn't go super in depth, but we covered the platform and how it was spurred by the labor movement and such. And Debs' campaigns.

#

We talked about the homefront for WW1, didn't really cover much other than that besides Wilson's foreign policy goals

I never remember which point is which, like how I never remember dates, but yea

#

7 was freedom for Belgium, 8 was the return of Alsace-Lorraine and 13 was a Polish state

stoic island
#

Pretty sure one of them was national self determination as France and Britain split the middle east

covert vapor
#

12 was the stuff on the Middle East, which was that Turkey should be a thing, the other Ottoman states should have the right to self determination

I’ve made a B560 sheet that you might find useful.

Hey if anything once received get new case and sell old case

fossil cedar
#

Kinda ruins the point of a prebuilt for most people lel

earnest olive
#

case swap is more work than a full build

formal girder
#

But great learning experience imo

earnest olive
#

people buy prebuilts specifically so they don't have to learn

mortal void
#

so I'm wiping my SSD via windows reset, but I don't want to reinstall windows. Do I just interrupt the reinstalling windows 10 process or what do I do? I want it completely wiped.

earnest olive
#

..what

#

if you want it completely wiped just reinstall windows

#

much easier

mortal void
#

eh it's already 87%

#

I have it set to wipe all my files and such already. I just don't want to reinstall windows back on it since I'll be using it for a games drive once I get the rest of my parts delivered

earnest olive
#

oh

#

lol you could have just deleted the partition

#

and reinitialized

#

would have taken 30 seconds

mortal void
#

well I'm not smart lmao. I just did it the way I know how

earnest olive
#

😔

formal girder
#

Feels like a bingo moment instead of buying parts and asking if list is good its doing an action and asking after what the best way is

mortal void
#

is NTFS only used for Windows Boot Drives?

#

or is it just hard drives in general

little osprey
#

Can anybody direct me toward a good 4 in 2 out hdmi 2.0 switch? Every one I find has awful reviews

mortal void
#

I assume it's normal to have only 930 gigs free on this completely wiped 1tb drive?

little osprey
#

@mortal void yeah. The difference is called provisioning. The controller sets aside partitions that you can't access to be able to move around data and whatnot

lyric thistle
#

932 is the typical allocated 1tb size

stoic island
#

@midnight goblet nooo, he misunderstood, it's that I found a lga1200 vrm tier list a while back that has good info on z490 and z590 boards mainly, was asking if you know and/or work with the people that made that

undone osprey
#

Don’t mind me I’m just lurking

earnest olive
#

it's because windows misreports GiB as GB

#

1 TB = 1000 GB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes

#

1 TiB = 1024 GB = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes

#

manufacturers sell you an actual 1TB drive

undone osprey
#

@earnest olive nice discord username

earnest olive
#

1TB / 1024^3 = 931.323

#

hence 931 GiB

earnest olive
stoic island
#

overprovisioning and all usually would kinda show, for example, @little osprey, mp510 uses quite a bit of overprovisioning, and only advertises 960GB size, and in reality only gives me around 894GiB usable

mortal void
#

question, what do I need to do to my SSD to get windows to recognize it again? Just partition it or rebuild MBR?

#

I had to download Partition Wizard so I can do this

#

Should I just make a full partition using NTFS as the format?

mortal void
stoic island
mortal void
#

okay good

#

I'll just need to re-add the partition I deleted lol. Thank god for Partition Wizard

#

NTFS will be the best option since it's Windows correct?
@earnest olive

earnest olive

ye

mortal void
#

ok thanks

I feel alot less dumb now that I've learned some more

i feel like those are the same

stoic island

basically same

desert gulch

mx5 is just a bit newer

what is the best gpu for the ryzen 5 3600

kind vortex
#

ok im back @fossil cedar

steel tartan
#

I got new cpu and I got no video and am wondering if my cpu can work with mobo I got a ryzen 5 2600x and a Gigabyte A520M AORUS Elite

#

I need help

grand geyser
#

I just put on the paste that came with my NH-D15 and it works phenomenally on my 5950X. The hottest my chip runs is 55º Celsius.

clever eagle
#

i guess
1050 ti to 3070 ti
by then you would want to spend more on a better cpu

formal girder
formal girder
steel tartan
#

Ye

formal girder
#

Is your cable plugged into it?

steel tartan
#

Yeap

#

I get a no signal

#

Well I do but it’s black screen

vague oracle
#

Are there any error leds on your mobo?

formal girder
#

Wait a520 doesnt support 2600x afaik

steel tartan
#

O

formal girder
#

I could be wrong but you need a 3000 series or above but no G variant iirc

vague oracle
#

Yeah a520 is only 3000 and above

formal girder
#

Well the G variants are for the 5000 series only

desert gulch
steel tartan
#

Yea I thought mine would work cause of 5000 series and it’s a 5 2600x

desert gulch
#

Or 6900xt?

clever eagle
desert gulch
#

Those two kinda are tbh

#

He asked for best one

clever eagle
#

a

desert gulch
#

3090/6900xt would be the best one

formal girder
steel tartan
#

Ok my old one was a ryzen 3 3100

formal girder
#

That would work

steel tartan
#

But I’m trying to upgrade to a new one

formal girder
#

I would say a ryzen 5 3600x wouldve be a better option

vague oracle
#

2600x is not an upgrade over the 3100 if I remember correctly

#

It’s about the same

desert gulch
#

3600x kinda bad value tbh

formal girder
vague oracle
#

I’d just get a 5600x at that point

formal girder
#

^^

steel tartan
#

Well

desert gulch
#

Rn

formal girder
#

Idk i dont watch amd prices

desert gulch
#

Even more in some places

steel tartan
#

Then my cpu bottle neck gpu

formal girder
#

Whats your gpu?

vague oracle
#

Not a thing to worry about

steel tartan
#

Rx580 8gb

formal girder
#

Thats fine

vague oracle
#

Bottlenecking is of so little importance when actually picking out parts, there’s going to be a bottleneck somewhere no matter what

formal girder
#

Yep

#

Just dont 3090 and 2600x

vague oracle
#

Even that’d be fine since you ain’t buying a 3090 for 1080p

formal girder
vague oracle
#

CPU matters less and less the high resolution you go

desert gulch
#

A little bit

formal girder
desert gulch
#

But not enough to justify it's current cost

steel tartan
#

What’s a good mini itx for my cpu

vague oracle
#

Why do you want mini itx?

steel tartan
#

Case

vague oracle
#

Ahh ok

steel tartan
#

Yea

vague oracle
#

Wait for the 2600x?

steel tartan
#

Yea

vague oracle
#

Ehh I’d keep the motherboard you have now and change the cpu

steel tartan
#

To what

vague oracle
#

5600x

steel tartan
#

Can that go in my mother board

vague oracle
#

A very substantial upgrade from the 3100 and compatible with your motherboard

#

About 40% faster single core and 110% faster multicore than the 3100

steel tartan
#

Ok

#

I would have to wait to return my cpu

desert gulch
#

Just gotta get a cooler for it too prolly

vague oracle
#

The stock cooler is adequate for some time until he can get a better cooler

steel tartan
#

I got a good cooler

vague oracle
#

Well according to demon it is

desert gulch
#

Hyper 212?

steel tartan
#

Ye I think

vague oracle
#

Not really that good but it’ll work

desert gulch
#

Damn I'm good at guessing

steel tartan
#

Lol

desert gulch
#

Def not the most popular aftermarket cooler or anything

formal girder
#

Just slap an intel stock cooler with modded brackets

desert gulch
#

Lol

vague oracle
#

Intel stock cooler on a 3090

formal girder
#

Bet

modest vortex
#

Thanks for the 80ti giga newegg

vague oracle
#

Shuffle?

modest vortex
#

Nah the random drop after

vague oracle
#

Ahh ok congrats!

#

How much did you pay?

modest vortex
#

I flip PC's so it was decently priced

#

1490

desert gulch
#

Nice

#

You planning to repad it?

vague oracle
#

That’s actually a really good price

modest vortex
formal girder
#

Hmm 3080ti is pricey but worth it since some oc over 3090s

modest vortex
#

EVGA ftw3s spoiling me

vague oracle
#

Compared to other prices it’s being sold for its pretty good

modest vortex
#

I've had three

#

And may be getting two hybrids

#

And have had two xc3 hydrocoppers

grand geyser
#

I'm liking my 3080 Suprim X.

vague oracle
#

Lmao I was just about to dm you asking if you wanted to be invited to a flipping server I’m in only to notice you’re already in it KEKW

modest vortex
#

80ti stock is way better than 90s or really anything elsr

grand geyser
#

I bought the 3080 over waiting for the 3080 Ti or a 3090 because I intend to use it for business and definitely upgrade when the 4000 series comes out. Otherwise, I would have held out for a better card that would last me longer.

vague oracle
#

I used to have a 3090 until I sold the PC it was in

#

Now I’m just parting out a new build

formal girder
#

Woo happy happy 22990 gpu test oc haha

vague oracle
#

What’s your stock TimeSpy?

formal girder
#

Stock gpu was like 18k

vague oracle
#

Oh wow

#

My 6800xt is think was also about there

#

When it was stock

formal girder
#

I kept capping at like 21k until i decided to finally do fans 100%

steel tartan
#

So it will 100% work with my cpu

formal girder
#

Does my gpu oc score fair against most other 3090 ocs?

vague oracle
vague oracle
steel tartan
#

Ok ima go to Best Buy

#

And return the 2600

formal girder
#

Alright

Hey I'm still learning computer issues.

My friend recently bought an ABS pc from wegg.

He says when gaming it will just randomly restart his computer. No BSOD,no warning , nothing. Just randomly restarts

stoic island
#

What does event viewer say?

ancient crown
stoic island
#

also, gpu drivers?

#

early 5600xt drivers sucky

kind vortex
#

danm 1000$

ancient crown
#

I'll have him check

#

He's updated the drivers to the latest

stoic island
#

might be worth chipset drivers too but check event viewer first

ancient crown
#

The reviews all say the same things happened to them lmao

#

Yeah I'm waitin for him to respond on the event viewer

stoic island
#

oh fun

ancient crown
#

How far do the logs go?

stoic island
#

tell them ignore the warnings, and check for the errors

#

oh event viewer? practically forever

ancient crown
#

I figured

stoic island
#

main thing is look for whea error, and errors near a kernal power error

#

there are software errors that don't mean much in there, but just look for things around the crash

kind vortex
#

does it plug all the way in

ancient crown
kind vortex
#

oh ok

ancient crown
#

Says that's the last time it crashed

stoic island
#

okay, what's the errors before kernal power?

ancient crown
#

Above or below?

stoic island
#

interested in these

#

both

#

but below is before

kind vortex
stoic island
#

wat

kind vortex
#

or the mainboard bios

stoic island
#

need to see what the error is first

kind vortex
#

I THINK

stoic island
#

can't see much from screenshot

kind vortex
#

poor his pc

stoic island
#

kernal power is kinda a hey you crashed

kind vortex
#

just tp to his room

ancient crown
stoic island
#

yay nothing clear

#

@ancient crown windows debugging time

General fix for random windows problems

From an admin command prompt or powershell, run:

sfc /scannow

If that doesn't work, try:

dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

Then, try running sfc again.
Repeat as necessary

#

(looks most likely software things, not hardware)

ancient crown
#

So run those. Test for crashing, if no dice, rerun commands?

stoic island
#

for now just run, and test

ancient crown
#

Rog

#

Thank you very much

#

You're a hero and I'd kiss you

kind vortex

#

btw tell them to take better pictures, make it easier to see description :p

ancient crown
#

I'll be back once he's done it

#

Yes better pics lol

kind vortex
#

ok

stoic island
#

or get phone with better camera

ancient crown
kind vortex
ancient crown
stoic island
#

eh, do dism anyways too

#

just in case

ancient crown
#

Now my question is, how could so many people be having this issue lol

#

Rog

stoic island
#

also pc building simulator eh? I'm suspicious of that check mark next to the application tho, making me think of some wacky malware

stoic island
kind vortex
stoic island
#

no reason for anyone to crack windows

#

it's free to download

#

free to get rid of watermark

#

free to use regedit

kind vortex
#

no

#

like activate windows

stoic island
#

yes

#

you can activate windows w regedit

#

practically activate it

kind vortex
stoic island
#

not that you can link the license to your acc, but everything will work as if you had it activated

kind vortex
#

and i know how

#

sus uncel give me this

#

and yup it did activate the windows for free

stoic island
#

fun

kind vortex
#

oi man

#

should i get a console or a pc

ancient crown
#

Both

kind vortex
#

ok

ancient crown
#

Maybe abs just like has a mass windows mirror process they do or something to install windows on all the pcs they build so they all get the same errors

stoic island
#

lots of people buy pc

ancient crown
#

True true

stoic island
#

windows high screwiness rate

#

= high reports of death

ancient crown
#

it seems like is the more recent ones from the reviews I'm readin

stoic island
#

there's also the mentality of "hey this other guy definitely has exact same thing I got so I'll report it as the same thing too"

kind vortex
ancient crown
#

Also he has no idea why his icons have check marks lol

stoic island
#

it happened to the reviews of b550 pro vdh wifi, and there were fun reports of people saying the bios was dead or something even though the issue was incompatible cpu lel

ancient crown
#

Fair fair lol

stoic island
#

people download sketchy things for fun

#

it's normal

ancient crown
#

Yeah I'll have him run malware bytes. We will see if he listened to me in the beginning for getting malwarebytes

stoic island
#

common sense would say don't download p95 because of how suspicious the website is but ehhhh

ancient crown
#

Haven't heard of that, I'll check it

stoic island
#

p95 is random example software, not antivirus, it's a stress test

ancient crown
#

If I was there I'd just use my USB that I got from when I was working at staples

#

Had mwb hitmanpro

stoic island
#

ah yes

ancient crown
#

And some other nonsense for extra malware scans

stoic island
#

but anyways tell me this doesn't look suspicious :p

ancient crown
#

Definitely looks sus lmao

#

Alright the dism commands went through fine . I'll have him get mwb like I told him to before. Thank you again

but you know some poor guy crammed argb connector into rgb header tho

if they ignore all that and force it anyways i have no sympathy lol

stoic island

ignorance is bliss

earnest olive

just fry your rgb and go buy a prebuilt

vapid seal
#

I have a cm storm stryker tower. It has intel i3 in it, I want to upgrade the cpu and add more ram, is that possible?

earnest olive
#

depends

#

easiest way to tell is to open it up and take a look

#

see if it's got a proprietary mobo or not

#

wait that's just a case not a prebuilt

yeah you should be able to

yeah I got it from a guy who built it
