Pain struggling and torture

[crystal sleet]

aight

aigjt

ah found

I can fix boot order but there is no boot option for windows thing

besides old ones

could the fact that there are extremely outdated ones

be causing an issue

I shall try boot into both of them

[queen dawn]

yes

[crystal sleet]

immaculate view

[crystal sleet]

I do not have a driver or ethernet unfortunately

[queen dawn]

i dont have internet

[crystal sleet]

isn't it important

[queen dawn]

no

[crystal sleet]

ok peak

has this been the stupid ass issue the entire time

I'm just a moron 😭

it's done now

tysm

this was such a pain to do

[queen dawn]

np

it was just the drive not being gpt

[crystal sleet]

I had literally tried booting into both of these things before

[crystal sleet]

yeah

was so dumb onfg

I still have an unknown hardware issue vut

I'll survive

[queen dawn]

jsut get your internet drivers and let windows update get the drivers for you

[crystal sleet]

where can I get my internet drivers

I've never in my life had to do it before

[queen dawn]

https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B760M-GAMING-PLUS-WIFI/support#driver

[crystal sleet]

aight

[crystal sleet]

I need to install on Linux then

[crystal sleet]

all or just intel?

[queen dawn]

all

[crystal sleet]

alr

I can't change my refresh rate

again

[queen dawn]

gpu drivers

[crystal sleet]

secure boot id enabled

true

ok I'll just get internet

[crystal sleet]

I don't need the usb installation thing anymore right

[queen dawn]

you dont

[crystal sleet]

I can wipe it and put on drivers

[queen dawn]

yes

[crystal sleet]

hell yeah

I'll try set up grub menu to let me windows

problem for future tho

[queen dawn]

uncomment

#GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false

[crystal sleet]

ah ok

[queen dawn]

in /etc/default/grub

[crystal sleet]

awesome

can I just uh

[queen dawn]

and run sudo update-grub

[crystal sleet]

what's it called

neo or dmthn

I forgor

edit file from kernel

[queen dawn]

sudo xed /etc/default/grub

[crystal sleet]

alr

[queen dawn]

im pretty sure xed is included by default on linux mint

[crystal sleet]

alright done in pretty sure

[crystal sleet]

yup

time to driver

hoiw do you remembera ll this

[queen dawn]

i just looked up what the included text editor is on mint

[crystal sleet]

ah ok

[queen dawn]

i got the ai overview bs so i said "pretty sure"

[crystal sleet]

lmao

gotta love gemini

[crystal sleet]

bro

Bluetooth drivers said none were found

[crystal sleet]

this is intel internet

realtek worked

Internet works tho so idk

[queen dawn]

use installer

[crystal sleet]

ah I didn't see that

I used device manager

how do I do rest if drivers now

[queen dawn]

windows update

do that for everything but gpu drivers

[crystal sleet]

awesome

[crystal sleet]

ddu or something else

[queen dawn]

nah just go to nvidia website and pick gpu

[crystal sleet]

oki cool

I'll do that in the morning it's 11.30

pm

ty a lot for all the help

rest of stuff shouldn't be too hard

is it still likely I have a GPU or cpu issue

[crystal sleet]

I no longer have internet on anything lmao

none of my os have internet

also is there any way for me to fix the when booting half the time it works

is this fine brw

I think k this is because I enabled VMD

yes it was

I reset my bios and still have no internet

I fixed it on mint by using nmcli to connect

[mortal coyote]

title getting more accurate day by day

[crystal sleet]

yuup

[crystal sleet]

I can DORT OF connect on windows but when I did connect it was insanely slow

like

when I eventually get it to connect after messing around with turning on and off internet and forgetting it

it's so bad speed test doesn't load

it's a driver issue I believe

had to change operating systems to install drivers it was so bad

ok update

I have bad internet on ALL my operating systems now

[mortal coyote]

https://tenor.com/vhSqKZ8pIoL.gif

[crystal sleet]

this is horrible 😭

I want to start from scratch ong

the struggle never ends

I fold

for now

I'm bot gonna be home again for another like 5 hours

[crystal sleet]

I still don't have internet

I think it's a bios issue or something

but apparently the drivers I installed on win11 are known for being slow

like I can after some struggle connect to internet

it's a really weak signal ifk

and once it does connect it's so slow I can't even speed test

I'm going back to an old system restore point on windows

[crystal sleet]

I reset cmos thing

didn't have battery so I used mrtal

and the 2 pins

didn't work

[queen dawn]

wifi or ethernet?

[crystal sleet]

wifi

[queen dawn]

do you have the antenna connected

[crystal sleet]

could this be cpu related 😭

[crystal sleet]

yes

[queen dawn]

reconnect it real quick

[crystal sleet]

I'm not really able to use my pc

I'll try that in the morning

if that doesn't work do you have any other ideas

it's kinda hard to properly repair this with timezones and you being busy when I'm jot

[queen dawn]

the way i fixed my crazy ass wifi problems(500ms spikes to my router) with a massive ethernet cable

[crystal sleet]

am I just forced to ethernet

I don't have ethernet properly in my house but I'm on fiber

and my router is in the like room below me

I have had weird internet for a while where my phone gets much better signal but it's never been this bad

[queen dawn]

well i had this bs when my router is 10m away with no walls obstructing

[crystal sleet]

it's weird that it's gone this bad out of nowhere

and also my issues with connecting were super weird

[crystal sleet]

didn't work :(

it's just not even connecting

[charred pulsar]

download drivers via mobile data

you can usb tether

[crystal sleet]

it's cooked on all operating systems

so idk if it's a driver issue

[charred pulsar]

well the stock w10 ethernet driver on my pc doesnt work for some ass reason

[crystal sleet]

it only stopped working when I installed windows

or like a bit after installing

I've reser bios

clears cmos

I'm trying hotspot now tho

ok not even my phone is connecting

I'll try usb

how is everyone single cable in my house usbc to usbc

bad to use my keyboard cable bro

my internet in windows is good now

ethernet yipee

it's installing now

23.140.0

drivers installed

can't connect to internet

like at all

my hotspot works tgo

[charred pulsar]

bud you arent even within range of your wifi router

[crystal sleet]

I only stopped having internet yesterday

nothing has changed with my router since then

how am I not in range if the range hasn't changed???

do I need to readjust the antennas or something

this is where my router is relative to my room

ignore the mess 😭

[charred pulsar]

thats pretty far away my friend

[crystal sleet]

ok but

the distance hasn't changed

I have no internet

all of sudden it changed

nothing has physically changed which should effect that

[charred pulsar]

make sure you using your router's 2.4 ghz band

[crystal sleet]

why?

[charred pulsar]

even better get a mesh network

[crystal sleet]

I'm pretty sure I'm on auto

[charred pulsar]

has a better range

[crystal sleet]

what's that in layman's terms 😭

[charred pulsar]

compared to 5 ghz

[charred pulsar]

google

using an extender will fuck up speed

[crystal sleet]

I'm not using an extender

[charred pulsar]

not my concern

your pc is far away from your router end of story

[crystal sleet]

is this right

[charred pulsar]

its like a floor down bud

[crystal sleet]

yeah but what's confusing me is why the issues only started now

[charred pulsar]

isnt your router dual band?

[crystal sleet]

yeah I think so

[charred pulsar]

i could ask the same for my ass extender

[crystal sleet]

802. stuff right

[charred pulsar]

your router should list itself with the suffix of 2.4 and 5 ghz in its ssid

[charred pulsar]

that should help

[crystal sleet]

don't I need to connect to check ssid

[crystal sleet]

it didn't work

[crystal sleet]

my sister is even further from the router and she has internet on her mac

[crystal sleet]

ohows ur role rgb and shi

[charred pulsar]

gradient

[crystal sleet]

thats tuff

what am i supposed to do then

[crystal sleet]

im kinda stuck using the fricking usb tether

from my phone

[queen dawn]

Powerline Ethernet

[crystal sleet]

i dont have ethernet

lie

like

there is no way to uise

[queen dawn]

Powerline Ethernet is Ethernet through powerpoints

https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/tp-link-av600-nano-powerline-adaptor-starter-kit-tl-pa411kit-tptlpa411

Something like thaf

[crystal sleet]

hm

it's so expensive man 😭

[queen dawn]

massive Ethernet cable will still be cheaper, but this'll work if you don't want clutter

[queen dawn]

Aud

But yea it is expensive

[crystal sleet]

can you explain to me so I can tell my parents why id need that because like, my phone's internet works fine in the same room, my sister's MacBook which is further away works fine and my internet suddenly got significantly worse overnight

it just doesn't make sense

[crystal sleet]

probably would work better too wouldn't it

[queen dawn]

Yes

[crystal sleet]

dang

[queen dawn]

My router is 10meters away, it was fine until 2months ago.

[crystal sleet]

why is it fine for other people tho

if it's a router issue why am I the only one effected

doesn't it make more sense for it to be a hardware issue on my end

[queen dawn]

Could be the WiFi card, but cable is cheaper than a WiFi card.

[crystal sleet]

I see

wait

WiFi cards are like 30 euro ish

that's pretty manageable

mobo is only like 4 months old 😭

[queen dawn]

30meter etherney cable is 25 aud

[crystal sleet]

how is WiFi card already cooked

[crystal sleet]

much messier tho

[queen dawn]

14 euro

[queen dawn]

True

[crystal sleet]

https://amzn.eu/d/gnz31DL this would work right

or no

[charred pulsar]

why are you getting a new wifi adapter

your problem is your router being far away

[crystal sleet]

I'm not I was just wondering if it's working

[charred pulsar]

wifi is just trash jk

you can use a mesh network (costly to setup)
an extender (at the cost of terrible stability but works & easy)
powerline ethernet (best option)

[crystal sleet]

if it's the WiFi card then wouldn't an extender do nothing

[charred pulsar]

use powerline ethernet bud

https://www.tp-link.com/in/home-networking/powerline/tl-wpa7517-kit/

[crystal sleet]

how is this ethernet

this is still wireless no?

[charred pulsar]

no

it uses your house's electricity to transmit data via voodoo magic

[crystal sleet]

I'm not familiar with voodoo magic sorry

I'll try reseat my WiFi card

[charred pulsar]

or just google it

oh lord

[crystal sleet]

good point

[charred pulsar]

just get powerline ethernet

[crystal sleet]

it's worth a shot man

[charred pulsar]

wait

[crystal sleet]

it's cheaper

free

[charred pulsar]

do you have a dedicated wifi card?

[crystal sleet]

no but the ax211 in my b760m is removable

[charred pulsar]

@queen dawn looks like powerline ethernet is cheap?

how is stability?

[queen dawn]

ill have to do some research, i dont use powerline ethernet.

https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/is-powerline-stable.3315460/

[crystal sleet]

it runs based off existing wiring right?

[queen dawn]

yes

[crystal sleet]

so like, with plugs etc

from one plug to another

I can return my mobo maybe

that would fix?

get a refund or replacement

could the fact that not all my CPU things are connected be an issue

it's an 8 and 4 pin but I didn't have the extra 4 pin

is this the WiFi card

it doesn't look right but that's where I put the antennas

wait no it's sligjtly above ot

ugh

this this

[crystal sleet]

i feel like this issue is windows installation related

[crystal sleet]

it began a few hours after I installed windows

[gray palm]

damn

[crystal sleet]

could uninstalling windows fix this 😭

[crystal sleet]

powerline ethernet btw

usb tethering

ethernet has much better ping

but the thing im using is like 8 years old 🥀

[crystal sleet]

ok i got another one

it says it can do 300mpbs speeds

i feel like my ethernet cable might be the issue

its not outstanding by any means

its stabalised a lot more now i think

its not powerline its a wifi extender with a usb port

cable isn't the reason for slow speeds

it's the extenders ethernet capped out at 10/100

it's unfortunate but I can live with it

[crystal sleet]

this happens to my audio when I'm streaming in a discord vc and open a menu

same happens when I'm streaming and playing cs2

he Accel on

[crystal sleet]

@mortal coyote any idea please

[mortal coyote]

No idea man

[gray palm]

What OS?

[gray palm]

I live in a 3rd world country and I have faster WiFi rofl

[crystal sleet]

mint

[crystal sleet]

yeah...

[gray palm]

You could try pulseaudio

I think mint used pipewire

[crystal sleet]

I'll try

[gray palm]

yeah I have no fucking clue what's the commands I use a shitty USB headphones so I don't have issues LOL

[crystal sleet]

😭

fair

[gray palm]

Does it issue appear repetitively

[crystal sleet]

yeah

[gray palm]

Everyone saying Linux is the shit but it just shits itself

[crystal sleet]

exactly

it's kinda annoying but oh well

exploding head

[gray palm]

bro WHAT

That's WiFi speed from the mud huts in Mumbai

[crystal sleet]

yeah

it's great ikr

[gray palm]

BTW hide yo IP

[gray palm]

WiFi or Ethernet

[crystal sleet]

WiFi

[crystal sleet]

idrc tbh 😭

[gray palm]

such a gurt moment

[gray palm]

Can't u use ethernet

[crystal sleet]

I got a uh

WiFi extender

[gray palm]

I somehow convinced my family member to drill a fucking hole for my Ethernet cable

[gray palm]

• 0.00 speed

[crystal sleet]

nah it's cuz I needed to use ethernet

and WiFi extender brought the ethernet port much closer

unfortunately ethernet port on it capped out at 100Mbps

I could live with that tho

issue 2

it messed up the signal for other nearby devices

[gray palm]

Rip

[gray palm]

My 3rd world country has fiber optic and my building his fiber for some reason

[crystal sleet]

I have fiber too

500Mbps

[gray palm]

nice fiber speeds

[crystal sleet]

my entire system is just fucked

also I'm not close to my router at all

I was using poweline ethernet

for.likr a day

but the thing needed to be used elsewhere

for TV

[gray palm]

My Ethernet cable is capped at 1gbps

Old SS

not that old

[gray palm]

damn

Your house big?

[crystal sleet]

yeah

[crystal sleet]

😭

[crystal sleet]

.

[gray palm]

Bro just give up with Ethernet 😭 😭

My house isn't big its 3 rooms and my router in the middle room but yo living in a fucking mansion

[crystal sleet]

that's what I'm saying

[gray palm]

ATP use hotspot dude

[crystal sleet]

that's why I was gonna use power line ethernet

[gray palm]

Do they still sell a 1 km Ethernet port

[crystal sleet]

I want to buy a new gpu and cpu so idk if I can afford a power line ethernet setup

[gray palm]

your making your router communist

everyone gets the same speeds

[crystal sleet]

idk what to do anymore

[gray palm]

Shit looks to confusing to me

[crystal sleet]

I bought this today

[crystal sleet]

it's just plugging stuff in

[gray palm]

Costs of living in a mansion

[crystal sleet]

it's not that huge 😭

[gray palm]

Plug it in to the blue port

[crystal sleet]

it's really bsd

that's what I'm using now

[crystal sleet]

I did

[gray palm]

Just become a shaolin monk

[crystal sleet]

like bruh why is it on 2.4ghZ

[gray palm]

Is it because you connected to the 2.4ghz option?

There are multiple options like dis

[crystal sleet]

I only gave 1 options

and I'm using it

usually it's 5ghz

idk why it's not now

[gray palm]

Its in the blue port right?

Try to do a speedtest on linux

[crystal sleet]

I finally

got it to 5G

much better omg

THR UPLOAD SPEEDS ARE TERRIBLE

LMFAO

NOT RVEN 4MBPS

I'm gonna go on linux

and test my stuff there

and also uh

check audio stuff

[gray palm]

The confidence of just showing yo ip

[gray palm]

Mint

how is the cinnamon desktop environment

[crystal sleet]

what are you gonna do 😭

oh noo ur gonna make my internet worse again and lesnr what country I live in 🙏🙏🙏

[gray palm]

im going to power my indian fent reactor

[crystal sleet]

true

[gray palm]

i have a horrible VGA Monitor

that i have to use a dvi adapter to plug it

and its really bad

unstable

but for some reason i plugged my vga port in my mobo

it works

and i get GPU performance

also for some reason it only works on linux

windows 10 doesnt work even with the drivers

[crystal sleet]

im so sorry 🥀

[crystal sleet]

can you please help me fix ts 🙏🙏😭

is this more hardware issue

[crystal sleet]

this happens too

it's specifically when I open windows

which is a GPU intensive task

[gray palm]

can i sponser linux

[gray palm]

so this technoledgy is called render prime offloading

i think

yes i got it working

except firefox?

it tries to use the igpu i think

and it crashes

[queen dawn]

this is just linux Bluetooth audio being a bit fucky, this is from high cpu usage

[crystal sleet]

yea what about other stuff tho

it's not the same kinda issue and it happens no matter what I'm doing

[crystal sleet]

real

[crystal sleet]

is it a coincidence that when i take my headphones off and increase the volume to try and record how badly it cuts out it just immediately gets better

could it be that my ax211 driver is cooked?

i bought a tp link archer t3u ac1300

idk if thats when my stuff with bluetooth bugging out began tho

its 100% bluetooth toh

because when i clip the recordings it sounds fine

[crystal sleet]

it'd on windows and linux

bte

[queen dawn]

Windows and Linux?

[crystal sleet]

yeah

could it be interference from my tp link WiFi usb adapter

[queen dawn]

doesnt it also handle bluetooth?

it could if youre connected via 2.4ghz

[crystal sleet]

I'm on 5Ghz and I fully disabled the 2.4Ghz band

[crystal sleet]

not sure

this is what I got https://www.currys.ie/products/tplink-archer-t3u-usb-wireless-adapter-ac-1300-dualband-10206671.html?sv1=affiliate&sv_campaign_id=624709&awc=5297_1750491159_5c00322b88ff84adbdc4f2718b7b262d&utm_source=Twenga+CSS&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=Affiliate

[crystal sleet]

im pretty sure the bluetooth signal is just insanely weak

because when i go to a room where i wouldnt usually lose signa, it drops so mucyh more

[crystal sleet]

its not the adapter interferring

tried unplugging it and it continued

OHHH I KNOW WHY ITS HAPPENING

I TOOK OUT THE ANTENNAS ON MY AX211

LETS GO I FIXED IT

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH

[crystal sleet]

i feel liek this has been the most spoken in support thread lol

[mortal coyote]

nah i remember there being one with like 5k+ messages

[crystal sleet]

god damn

2.5k isnt bad either tho icl

with only 6 people who have sent messages

[mortal coyote]

yep

[gray palm]

That's crazy

Cancer solving GC

[crystal sleet]

ongg

[crystal sleet]

I uh

accidentally deleted my boot thing for windows

because for some reason it was on my Linux ssd

even tho I made everything go on my windows ddd

ssd

whoopsie..

I thought it was my fedora install

[gray palm]

oopsy doopy

[tulip patrol]

hehe ~~ 🐺

[calm laurel]

[mortal coyote]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-couple-cute-gif-25659946

[crystal sleet]

???

im not schizophrenic btw i was talking to my friend in vc

i have like 2 taskbars

[mortal coyote]

just buy a new pc and start over atp

wtf are the problems youre facing

[crystal sleet]

LMAO

[crystal sleet]

this is a weird visual thing

no idea why its happening

restarting might fix

but rn im helping my friend build a pc so ill do later

the old taskbar is from 5 days ago??!??

wtf

[mortal coyote]

;-;

[crystal sleet]

restarting did not infact fix

[mortal coyote]

buying a new pc will fix it

[crystal sleet]

i literally bought a mobo, ram, ssd, case, psu and more like 4-5 months ago

[mortal coyote]

nice

[crystal sleet]

its just a ghost panel

yea for some reason there are 3 panels

[mortal coyote]

[crystal sleet]

nvm

i tweaking

i cant even right click on it???

i restarted cinnamon

im just a moron and it was my bhackground

[mortal coyote]

lmaooo

[charred pulsar]

tbh what are you trying to do lmao

[crystal sleet]

i took a screenshot of my display to send to my friend and then accidentally set that picutre as the background

because i hadnt seen the taskbar

but when i went into background settings on cinnamon it wasnt the taskbar version

[crystal sleet]

my vm keeps crashing

bro

im tryna repair my windows install

and use rufus to mount windows

but its crashing every time

i might try wiuthout rufus idk

[crystal sleet]

I used usb image writer

because my VM was cooked and I didn't wanna set up again

wtf

when I boot into my usb it starts in instKl driver to show hardware eindow

[charred pulsar]

tbh wtf are you trying to do

for like an entire month straight

[crystal sleet]

exist without suffering

[calm laurel]

Bro

Js leave the house

And get a j*b

[crystal sleet]

i have one twin

[calm laurel]

💔

[crystal sleet]

i fixed windows anyway

new gpu arrived :)

[crystal sleet]

I put in my gpu

but

the screw for mounting is just gone

[crystal sleet]

can someone please help my Linux just isn't booting normally

I need to add nomodeset to a boot option for it to work

it works on windows

like perfect;y

[crystal sleet]

Linux is such a pain bro

theree no reason for this to be so extra

[queen dawn]

you need the screw

please dont mount it without the screw

does mint even support the latest amd gpus, dont they use a old ass version of mesa

[charred pulsar]

i subsituted mine with a compass nut and bolt

[crystal sleet]

i didnt

i found screw

it was risky incase it was in case

and messed up mobo

[crystal sleet]

😭

[crystal sleet]

i updated my kernel to 6.15.2

but it didnt work

not sure what version of mesa its on tho

[crystal sleet]

any ideas on what to do in that casdre

[crystal sleet]

should i install popOS

or maybe something arch based

cachyos

or maybe manually installed a newer mersa

using oibaf or kisak

[crystal sleet]

updating mesa didnt work

[queen dawn]

Have you removed Nvidia drivers?

[crystal sleet]

im pretty sure i did

i uninstalled everything that began with nvidia

[queen dawn]

Packages older than mint

Mint is based on 2404, pop is based on 2204

[crystal sleet]

oml

whats my choice

[queen dawn]

Id suggest fedora, but you seemed to have had a pretty shit experience.

[crystal sleet]

yeah

also for my priorities

x11 just works better

mainly with minecraft

unless i can easily switch from fedora x11 to wayland quickly

[queen dawn]

Might be better with amd

[crystal sleet]

x11 or wayland?

[queen dawn]

Wayland

X11 is abandonware, you should try to avoid it if you can.

[crystal sleet]

oh ok

i might reinstlal fedora in that case

im somewhat stuck on windows so should i just use rufus to install fedora

triple booting 🔥

unless mint decides to be updated

[queen dawn]

Yes

[crystal sleet]

aight

[queen dawn]

Rufus is miles better anyway

[crystal sleet]

true

im installing fedora workstation 42 now

gnome cuz kde mid

like its fine but the only small reason id use kde is for the usage of wallpaper engien

realistically not worth

honestly built in usb image mounter was fine

worked perfectly imo

since my system mainly uses uefi

should i format the partition scheme as mbr?

[crystal sleet]

fedora is geeked bruh

maybe I should have used mbr not gpt

there is no reason gpt wouldn't work

[crystal sleet]

ill just try mbr ig

[crystal sleet]

mbr fixdd

installed fedkra

and somewhat detup

having the dual grub issue again

trying to get Ubuntu grub to recognize fedora

os prober didn't work

using UEFI chain loading

omnipathic@crystal sleet-skibidi:~$ sudo ls /mnt/fedora-efi/EFI/

WHY IS POPOS STILL HERE!??!??

I DELETED THIS

[crystal sleet]

fixed

im goated

[crystal sleet]

WHAT???

LMAO

I CANT LOG IN TO MY FEDORA WITHOUT IT LIKE CRASHING AND EXPLODING LOOL

I WAS IN A VC WITH MY FRIEND WHEN IT CRASHED

I TURNED OFF AND ON MY PC

TWICE

AAND HE COULD STILL HEAR ME

HAHAHA

badlion client crashed every time i tried to paly

0/2 with a good fedora experience

[crystal sleet]

what other options do I have

[queen dawn]

Is XMP unstable or smth

[queen dawn]

MBR is old, it's for BIOS systems, use GPT

[crystal sleet]

I did and it didn't work LMAO

[crystal sleet]

it could be but I doubt it

[crystal sleet]

it started bugging

when I was going through just perfection settings in gnome extensions

I had dash to panel enabled

it started tweaking

deleted just perfection didn't fix

restarted and I got cooked

[crystal sleet]

it only does this when i actually log in

[oblique spruce]

I think I might have the solution lol

didn't read all of the chat Idk if you already tried what am I about to say

does the MBR gets created when you install windows?

the MBR partition should be your first 100mb of your disk

if you're on an old system windows might not be able to create the MBR, on rufus there is an option that fixes that

[crystal sleet]

disabled stuff in TTY

it works now

[oblique spruce]

what is TTY

[crystal sleet]

been fixed but thanks

[crystal sleet]

I'm talking about fedora now lol

[crystal sleet]

text terminal thing in fedora

there were lots of things messed up but the main fix was formatting the drive as gpt and I had to use a VM on Linux mint to use Rufus with win 11 iso

[calm laurel]

Long fingers

[crystal sleet]

true

[crystal sleet]

badlion just sint working

my drivers are up to date

java version 21

idk what the problem is

lunar is crashing too

gonna test if its a 1.8.9i

[crystal sleet]

maybe i need to update my mesa drivers again

[crystal sleet]

didnt help btw

anyone know what to do 😭

[calm laurel]

You turn the pc off and never touch it again

👍

[gray palm]

what OS is that i geniune cant fucking tell

[gray palm]

fedora is so silly 👄

oh cinnamon

[gray palm]

thats weird

i never experienced on cinnamon

[queen dawn]

Run inxi -b and send output real quick

[queen dawn]

Scroll down a bit

They accidentally took an image of the desktop and set it as wallpaper

[gray palm]

[crystal sleet]

are there any other operating systems?

i can use

[crystal sleet]

should i use debian

or just

arch atp

i just want an os where i wont have 149 billion issues

steam os 🙏

[crystal sleet]

might try bazzite

ik it runs off fedora but it could be better then fedora

[crystal sleet]

Look at these annoying aaa inconsistencies and instabilities in fps
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgQ6BiLdxgw
All on windows btw

• 10:08 = 2-3k fps
• 9:30 = 300-400 fps
• 8:39 = 1-1.7k fps
• 3:35 = 600-700 fps

it was so much less consistent in reality too

felt like every time i restart my pc it would vary

like significantlky

https://youtu.be/AhQRjrnoR5o 90% of these clips are linux so you can look at the fps

sometimes getting worse fps on linux then on windows

with better specs btw

https://youtu.be/qptdlzADLnA these are nearly entirely linux

its much better on linux 100%

i dont get what this bs is tho

[crystal sleet]

i feel like my gpu was originally overperforming or something

alsowhat obs settings sohuld i use

[crystal sleet]

blc works on cinnamon fedora

😭

[crystal sleet]

yay

[crystal sleet]

screen teae

help

[crystal sleet]

stasrt from here

[gray palm]

idk alot bout mc

[crystal sleet]

alr

all g

[crystal sleet]

is this normal

basically this is my history with pc heat
starts off with making rooms heat up because of gpu and cpu being hot
replace everything except gpu and cpu and still get problem
replace gpu from 4060 to 9060xt and problem goes away
replace cpu from i5 13400f to i5 14600kf and its back to heating up
could it just be a fan configuration in bios which i just need to properly modify or something else?

i know that new cpu has higher powerdraw

should i try undervolting it

i feel like i got kinda crappy thermal paste

i dwefo applied enough

do I undervolt?

[queen dawn]

13400f's TDP is 65W
14600kf's TDP is 125W

You'll need a better cooler

[crystal sleet]

shit

yeah I figured

what does tdp stand for again

omg doesn't replacing the cooler entail essentially building the entire of again

or can I keep the same backplate if it's a similar brand

[queen dawn]

Thermal design power

[crystal sleet]

ah ok

[queen dawn]

Did you have to change the backplate?

[crystal sleet]

idk if they all use the same design

not sure if backplate is the right term but basically the thingy on the back

[queen dawn]

Mounting Bracket

?

[crystal sleet]

yeah that's what I mean

back if the mobo

behind cpu socket

[queen dawn]

No idea

[crystal sleet]

if I had to change it I would need to take my mobo out which means taking everything out

delightful

[queen dawn]

Id assume it's fine, either way, you should be able to access it on the back of the case.

[crystal sleet]

I'll open up the back tomorrow and assess the situation ig

would I not be able to buy a like

second fan

https://amzn.eu/d/gLY8fMM this is my current one

so if put a second fan on the other side of the ventilation thingymabob

would under clocking be a solution

I doubt it would come with a major performance drop since better temps generally mean better performance even despite less power usage

[queen dawn]

That should be fine, not sure why temps are shit

Anyway, what are the temps

[crystal sleet]

thermal paste?

[queen dawn]

Possible

[crystal sleet]

it was like 80 under load

which also isn't even that bad?m

[queen dawn]

That's perfectly fine

[crystal sleet]

by load I mean Minecraft

[queen dawn]

That's running cool

[crystal sleet]

but my room was heating up a lot

like nothing compared to a day before the cpu

and it's also just way louder

I'll run a proper benchmark

maybe I just need to readjust fan curve

[queen dawn]

Yea you're moving more heat, so it makes sense.

[crystal sleet]

apparently the halnziye hy720 which is the thermal paste I bought isn't good

[crystal sleet]

how did a gpu with more power consumption cause lower temps

more fans

id imagine

I'll properly benchmark tomorrow anyway

see what it's like then

[crystal sleet]

single core

idk if i should use another benchmark

will test multicore now

ok its defo already

more fans

and heating up

its in progress im just showing some things

idk where to find teps

for cpu

so temps and sound were fine during single core

when when i went to multicore it got more intense

ok finished score

[crystal sleet]

I did this

[gray palm]

i see

as of now i have a old sandy bridge computer with a 1050 ti

and nvidia is killing supporting

for the 1050 ti

ive been thinking of getting a new PC

with a battlemage card

[crystal sleet]

😭

🙏

[calm laurel]

Bro might be dragging the thread

[crystal sleet]

anh

nah

[gray palm]

Is ts thread even needed anymore

[crystal sleet]

probably

Im just in vacation rn so I don't have any problems

[crystal sleet]

ok im

getting like 3k fps

but it just feels stuttery 😭

[crystal sleet]

my

bluetooth is cutting out again

its not unbareable but

its just really annoying when it happens

its not geography based either

i also keep getting this

and uh

this wifi thing

which it starts and stops connecting to

and idk how to make it stop connecting

it could be cutting out from internet

but im doubtful

since all audio cuts out

and no internet issues

besides the fact its a tad slow

[crystal sleet]

issue with the HDD USB or what

[charred pulsar]

why is your machine so broken wtf

[crystal sleet]

I don't know 😭

my windows internet is just bugging

[charred pulsar]

wdym bugging

[crystal sleet]

like for a while I didn't have any

I fixed that eventually

[charred pulsar]

what

[crystal sleet]

my tplinj driver says it's 2011

and I can't update it because website only have Mac drivers

I've also just

lost internet speed

by quite a lot

USB tethering refuses to work

[charred pulsar]

why are you using a nano adapter

[crystal sleet]

wdym

[charred pulsar]

tplink nano usb adapter for wifi

explains a lot

why not use onboard wifi?

[crystal sleet]

my ax211 card is fucked

0.1 Mbps download 🔥

it's either that or it just doesn't connect

[charred pulsar]

get a wifi extender ✅

and use it over ethernet

[crystal sleet]

that's what the USB was supposed to be

tp link archer t3u or something

t3u ac1300

[charred pulsar]

that usb stick doesnt have a strong antenna

i had one

terrible choice

[crystal sleet]

it was like 200mpbs like 2 weeks ago 🙏

[charred pulsar]

my router is in the hallway and my room is separated by a thin wall

i was getting piss speeds

not to mention your pc case will interfere with the wifi signal

[crystal sleet]

Ive tried fpanel 3.0 and io 3.0 and 2.0 and the fpanel seems to work the best

also I think this might be happening because

I installed windows updates

but they never properly updated

even tho it SAID they did

[charred pulsar]

bro

[crystal sleet]

and one of them is for realtek so I'm gonna make sure it's done now

[charred pulsar]

just get a dang wifi extender

[crystal sleet]

the other ones don't even give me signal 😭

[crystal sleet]

can you recommend a decently priced one :)

I don't wanna spend money on it for it to be garbage

[charred pulsar]

check on tplinks website

whats your internet speed

[crystal sleet]

that kind of wifi extender?

[crystal sleet]

my router does 500 Mbps

I get 300 on my phone in the room with my pc

I can't install this dang windows update

because I have no internet

[charred pulsar]

no your plan's speed

like for me its 100 mbps

[crystal sleet]

also 500

[charred pulsar]

re450 or above

lower end ones have a 100 mbps port

[crystal sleet]

I have no idea

oh

that's what ur recommending

[charred pulsar]

look on tplinks website

re505x if you want wifi6

i just ordered that

re200 is limited to 100 mbps on ethernet

but you should have much better range

do you have a long ethernet cable?

[crystal sleet]

not really

I have a 1m one

cat,6

or 6e

so it's fast enough

[charred pulsar]

get a 5m one

[crystal sleet]

where should I put it

[charred pulsar]

if you are going to place the extender at a height

[crystal sleet]

not a good idea probably

[charred pulsar]

idealy at a height

[crystal sleet]

considering the router is a floor below me

[charred pulsar]

why

[charred pulsar]

ah

1m should do then

[crystal sleet]

one sec

[charred pulsar]

you will need to make the antenna horizontal to the ground

my router is parallel to mine

[crystal sleet]

do you remember the video I sent

of my room relative to rourer

[charred pulsar]

get the re505x

or re450 if you dont need wifi6

[crystal sleet]

wait I don't think I can use a wifi extender

[charred pulsar]

re200/re2XX if you just need a dual band extender so run wifi through

[crystal sleet]

because when I do it interrupts signal for people not on Ethernet connected to it

I remember this being an issue before

[charred pulsar]

baka

you are using the extender as a drop in replacement for your wifi adapter

[crystal sleet]

so I used power line Ethernet which was good but the Ethernet port on it was capped at 100

[crystal sleet]

drop in where 🙏

[charred pulsar]

how stupid are you

[crystal sleet]

very

[charred pulsar]

ngl and no offense

[charred pulsar]

the extender connects to your wifi, and your pc connected to its ethernet port gets internet

[crystal sleet]

maybe I need to restart router

[crystal sleet]

I see

what I want to know is why this has dropped all of a sudden

so much

[charred pulsar]

whats the wifi strength

jumpinf between 3-4 bars?

[crystal sleet]

what the fuck

it's back to being good again

I didn't even do anything???

Terrible for over a day

magically goes back to good

I unplugged it and then

plugged it back in

which I have done a dozen times

[charred pulsar]

check your wifi signal strength

[crystal sleet]

[crystal sleet]

because I had no internet

why is it ac

[charred pulsar]

use an extender

tbh

[crystal sleet]

i swear i made it all the things

[crystal sleet]

again

cant

[charred pulsar]

wifi standard

[charred pulsar]

why

none the less your pc is connected via wifi at the end

[crystal sleet]

oh my god I just lost internet again

[charred pulsar]

but much better than that dang wifi adapter

[charred pulsar]

you are just complaining and not accepting any solutions

[crystal sleet]

because my sister doesnt get internet and the tv doesnt get internet when there is an extender

brp

?m

discord isn't sending my messages in pc

ok now they are

this is so dumb

[charred pulsar]

...

if your wifi adapter can get a signal surely an extender in your room can??

[crystal sleet]

tthats not

the point

the point is taht when there is an extender

im the only one who gets to make sure of the wifii

[charred pulsar]

you can disable the extended network

[crystal sleet]

because im on ethernet with the extender

[charred pulsar]

so you do this

[crystal sleet]

hold on I'll talk to my dad

[charred pulsar]

oh god

where is the extender

[crystal sleet]

it was in my bedroom

right below my pc

[charred pulsar]

dont tell me you are connected to the extender over wifi

[crystal sleet]

Ethernet

[charred pulsar]

why didn you tell me

[crystal sleet]

wait

which extender

[charred pulsar]

wait ik the issue

can you access the web panel of the extender

[crystal sleet]

tp link extender

the USB one

or something else

[charred pulsar]

send me ss

your words speak lies

[crystal sleet]

the to link extender is wifi

[charred pulsar]

send me ss

[crystal sleet]

my archer tp link is on wifi but when I tried the wifi extender that was in wall plug that Interruoted other people k used Ethernet for it

[charred pulsar]

send me ss

[crystal sleet]

of what exactly

[charred pulsar]

of you're so called extender

because i can't piece a think from your words

[crystal sleet]

the wall one right

im just trying to clarify

[charred pulsar]

whatever the fuck this is
