I know you guys hate vidyafags but this is semi-tech related.

So here we have HL2 and I'm trying to set Shadow quality to High.
r_flashlightdepthtexture 1 will do this.

Redownloading all lightmaps #1: The engine attempts to set shadows to high.
Redownloading all lightmaps #2: Something fucks up and it reverts to medium.

"mat_dxlevel" = "98": The engine confirms it's running DX9Ex, which is required for high quality shadows.

I've heard the Source engine prevents you from setting that cvar if it detects the display driver as Intel, which I have. Thing is, this Intel GPU (GMA 4500m) should support up to DX 10.1 just fine. But I'm also using a non-official custom driver.

Is Gaben telling me to go fuck myself or is this a driver bug?

My SSD and two of my HDDs plugged in to SATA seem to be losing power once or so every two days.

When I notice this happen my computer runs fine but my OS and all programs start to crash because of no I/O. The OS doesn't detect any drives disconnecting.

Upon restarting it I see it say something along the lines of "Reboot and Select proper Boot device". My BIOS shows me that my SSD and some of my hard drives on the SATA seem to not be connected.

What 'fixes' this is when I disconnect a USB powered mic and restart.

My build consists of:
650W SeaSonic power supply
GTX 780
i5 4570k
3x 2TB Seagate HDDs
1x 120GB Samsung 840
Some Asrock motherboard that supports Haswell

Any ideas?

I just got a new router specifically for seeding shit, but it's not seeding. I've got a green check mark and 1000 torrents, but none are seeding. Only 1-2 for a few kb/s once in a while, 1/10th of my limit.

I got it because it was advertised as a good choice for torrenting. Any ideas at all what I can try before I hang a noose from my ceiling? I would love some suggestions.

I have an i7 2600k which has served me well over the years, however I noticed that when I play games it never goes above 26% cpu usage. Most games run completely fine at 60fps like that but one game (Squad) is basically a slideshow. Someone recommended unlocking my CPU cores as that might be the problem. How would I go about doing this and does it put my CPU at risk of damage?

I usually build on an unfolded cardboard box.
If it's big enough for you to place every component on it and sit on it then you're golden.

Also, if you just tap the case every 20-30 seconds it will discharge the electricity from your body.
>>
>>56145320
does the case have to be plugged into the wall or not? this goes back to my first question, if I tap the case then the charge doesnt really go to the ground, it just goes to the case right?

>>56145287
>Someone recommended unlocking my CPU cores as that might be the problem
that is a nonsense sentence when talking about 2600k

AMD had cores that could be unlocked, you got what you got... 4 cores / 8 threads

you can overclock, rise the turbo frequency of your cpu

>>
>>56145357
But then why isn't it maxing out my CPU when I'm playing? I doubt overclocking would save me from 15 fps. Its a very CPU intensive game and people report 80-90% usage. If its using 26% wouldn't it be only using one core? (I don't really know how this shit works I just put it together)

thats not really how it works, buy yeah, I doubt you would be charged after doing that

>does the case have to be plugged into the wall or not?
1. its unlikely you would have any significant charge after touching the large piece of metal even if not grounded

true or false: decoding blu-ray video uses less resources than decoding x264 or x265/HEVC, at comparable IQ (high bitrate encodes).

my 7 year old Centrino laptop came with a BD drive. but it stutters on any HEVC video in mpc-hc and mpv. Actual BDs play fine.

Is the blu-ray format easier to decode and render since it's in an "uncompressed" format, even if it is higher bitrate?

Do outdated display adapters affect how your screen looks? I have some really outdated drivers and my screen looks fuzzy and colors are weird as well as fonts n such.

>>56145396
It should be possible, but it's fucking ASUS man and you have 1000 torrents, I'm skeptical. It probably crashes from the amount of incoming connections or total connections , my old routers did that (Telewell, A-Link)

You probably could try limiting them? The amount of seeders (total) allowed? And then raise it a bit by bit > when it crashes again back down.

Also just confirm that it is running updated software etc.

So I upgraded my computer yesterday with a new mobo, cpu, and gpu and kept the same hard drive with Windows 7 on it. As soon as I got it booted, it automatically installed a bunch of drivers, and I also used the driver discs that came with the gpu and mobo. After all of that, my G400s is still being detected as Microsoft PS/2 mouse. The scroll wheel does not work, I cannot change its sensitivity, and there is a very noticeable latency on mouse movements. I couldn't find drivers for the g400s last I checked.

Please help me, I know I'm retarded.

>decoding blu-ray video uses less resources than decoding x264
1. x264 is a codec, not a format
2. blu-ray's are typically H.264 format, though not always (H.264 is the most resource intensive of the supported formats, mind, so for this question it's enough)
3. false. typical blu-ray (H.264) and the product of x264 (H.264) are the same thing, so have the same playback requirements with equivalent quality/settings

>x265/HEVC
this is an entirely different beast, it's a much newer and far more complicated format, so naturally it has notably higher playback requirements
on top of that, your laptop likely came with hardware that can decode (do the hard work) H.264 video on special hardware, without needing the CPU to do it. unless your laptop is very new, you likely do not have equivalent hardware for H.265, meaning it must be decoded on your CPU, which is typically much slower

>Any other bad things about double NAT?
its a pain in the ass when you try to connect to other devices on your network that are outside of the NAT.
Like lets say you have a network printer, its connected into your modem (since it has multiple ports) and you are connected to the router (that is connected to the modem).
You might not be able to see/use the printer (in the default network settings) because of the double NAT.


>I assume you'd say yes it's worth getting a dedicated modem then?
if you are fine with what you have then why spend money ?
I was replying to another anon that has a POS modem in which he cannot change any settings, but he *insists* on using his own router for the network.

>if you are fine with what you have then why spend money ?
Because I literally just got the new router and didn't remember that I'm currently using a combo modem/router. The wireless range on the combo was pretty bad (had 0 antennas) so I figured a new router wouldn't be a bad idea.

I was told I can't change my modem/router to bridge mode, but I'm looking more into it. The support guy said that using it as a modem without using bridge mode should be fine and getting a new modem wouldn't really make a difference, but I don't trust my ISP enough.

check and see if its detecting the second screen. i had same issue i had 2 hdmi running to my tower and only one screen worked. i unplugged the bigger screen from hdmi and used normal rgb cable and reconnected it into my computer. it detected it first try. then from there you just have to messa round with what screen you want for which tv.

So I'm trying to make a cbr using these steps:

>Archive the directory to a zip file using any compression software of your choice. ...

>Lastly, change the extension of the compressed archive you just created to .cbr so that it can be viewed in a comic book reader of your choice.

Problem is in the cbr files the order of the images is all mixed. How can I retain the order they were in pre zip? The are named sequentially in the folder ie. F1,f2,f3...

it was just an example.

With double NAT anything connected to the modem might not be able to see/use anything connected to the router.

remove hdmi from one tv and use original rgb cables to test if its a tv. setting issue or a wiring issue. i know u said it worked before but since you dont have extra hdmi cable to connect it with you have to check with other cable hence the rgb cable. if you dont get any picture thennnnnnnn idk

It seems that I can't really turn on my motherboard with the pos. and neg. pins (even touching them with a screwdriver)
I set up a jumper in my PSU and it seems to be working just fine (connected the psu cables to 2 of my case fans) would I be able to connect the CPU power cable and HDD power as well to see if I can turn the motherboard on? or would this fry my motherboard?

it means that you don't have permission to view the folder (or in this case the entire drive)
right click go to properties
then go to security

then type in your username and click ok a bunch until you are out of that menu
then try to access the drive

Nothing out of the ordinary for startups. My biggest concern is that Google is hinting it might be an auto-run virus, which is said to destroy files, which I don't want to happen. Opening it seems like a bad idea to me.

Yes, specially on videos under 1080p, for something those videos and up have the video and audio separated.

>>56151072
I'm not 100% sure, but I'd be surprised if YouTube didn't re-encode everything, even if it was already small enough as uploaded. Consistency and avoiding subtle encoding issues is probably much more important than the CPU savings of not reencoding.

If you download from YouTube frequently (or from other streaming sites like SoundCloud, etc) try youtube-dl. I think there's a GUI version too.

The issue is that "13" sorts lexographically between "1" and "2", just like "ac" sorts lexographically between "a" and "b".

Most string sorting doesn't special case contiguous sequences of digits, probably because it is both simpler, and doesn't make a difference in many cases.

Dear /sqt/,
I bought a 128gb Samsung evo+ micro sd card, however I'm getting really slow read/write speeds (15mb/s on both instead of 80mbs read - 20mbs write)
I'm testing with CrystalDiskMark using a microSD to usb adapter,
- Is my adapter throttling my speed?
- Is my microSD card a counterfeit, or perhaps a dud?

>>
>>56151705
>Is my adapter throttling my speed?
Probably. Is it USB 2.0? Do you have a card reader on your laptop that you could try to use?
>Is my microSD card a counterfeit, or prehaps a dud?
I doubt that it is counterfeit, but that depends where you bought it. I doubt that it could be a dud also. CrystalDiskMark would have probably picked up some other problems if it was one of those.

try going into settings and uninstalling it.

Its comes up under a lot of urls but the page is always the same
>>
>>56151806
Yes, it is USB 2.0, I just tried it on my laptop using the SD adapter and I get 60mbs/20mbs, which is way more acceptable.

Also I did run h2testw earlier to make sure the full capacity was there, and it didn't find any error.

Should've known that usb2.0 would slow me down, seems obvious now.

Thanks Anon.

Check the list of installed apps and uninstall everything that you don't recognize.

Checked, nothing weird. Ive tried a handful of trusted antivirus progs and scanned with all and it detects nothing. Is it actually a virus the promotes it or just shitty ads? It only occurs on certain pages with ads but it seems to happen far more often now. Formerly it would happen once every 6 visits on 4chan, then once per day, not i literally cannot go onto the homepage on mobile because its keeps redirecting me
>>
>>56152321
>Is it actually a virus the promotes it or just shitty ads?
Considering I don't have any problems, it's probably a virus on your end.
Also, why the fuck aren't you using Clover?
>>
>>56152344
Tried it, wasnt a fan. I used to use overchan but personally i prefered the site the best
>>
>>56152395
Use the recent version of Clover then.
You save data and loads the site way faster.
Also filters, bookmarks and watcher.

>>56152395
How were you not a fan? Clover (or any dedicated app really, I just prefer Clover) is leaps and bounds better than the website on mobile.
Plus, better battery efficiency.
>>
>>56152458
I dont remember why, it was awhile ago and had problems with some part of it. Ill try it put but im still concerned with the virus because it affects other sites i visit besides 4chan. I heard rumors it affecred your router and I dont know anything about how they work but I went onto my pc and did a clear dns cache or something and it didnt help
