Would only being able to supply power to one of my two 200R case fans matter? The new (mini) board I got can only connect to one. Is the difference between 2/2 and 1/2 negligible?

>>58261130
>>58261144

Still looking for some sort of guidance here. I've tried swapping channels in the router, and disabling wireless autoconfig, but I get these instantaneous disconnects, which is especially noticeable when I'm playing Quake Live

If I have a PC with separate audio and microphone jacks and I get, say, a gaymen headset with a single audio jack, will the microphone on that headset work if I plug it into the audio jack?

>>58262223
The real advantage is two fans running at 50% is WAY quieter than one running at 100%. Also you can spend $5 on a fan splitter.

>>58262250
What are you using? 5ghz? 2.4? First try 5ghz if that doesn't work something in your area is giving off too much interference try powerline networking.

>>58262333
No you need a headphone splitter. Pick one up on Amazon for under $5

>>58262250
did you try calling your ISP? and tell them you keep getting request timeout?

>>58262333
you should get hyper x cloud 2, cloud 1 if you cant afford the 2. by far the most comfortable headset i've used

>>58262442
>fan splitter
Thanks. I should've realized there would be a solution like this.

Enthoo Evolv mATX or Node 304? I want something mostly metal, quiet, and compact with good drive support and cooling. I have no plans to do water cooling.

>>58262513
I might, I was looking at the kraken pro v2 cause it's ten dollars less than the hyperx, but I'll keep it in mind.

>>58262656
iirc the node 304 isn't designed with the same foam that the fractal define series has - for that you gotta go with the fractal define mini

>>58262656
also the node 304 is mitx, not matx - but fits a standard atx powersupply

>>58262723
>>58262737
Apparently the layered plastic/aluminum front panel on the Node does pretty well with sound dampening, and I could always add sound dampening sheets if I wanted to.

And I know they're not the same form factor, I just wanted to find something smaller than a mid tower then figure out what I'll put in it later.

>>58262761
ah, fair enough - you should still be able to find a motherboard with 6 satta ports to fill out the node 304, although you may have to shop around a bit.
if all you need is one daughterboard with a x16 width pci-ex slot, then mitx is definitely good enough - you only really need matx or atx nowadays if you have a need for more daughterboards.

how do I get the taskbar on a 2nd monitor in windows 10 to display system tray icons and still have them on the 1st monitor?

Why don't more people use their HDMI capable TVs for everyday computer usage? Is it a power issue?

>>58262871
Resolution

Power

>>58262871
Probably because their TV is too big for that? I had a 23-inch that I used, but I probably would've gotten a bigger one if I had the money (this was years ago).

Downloading drivers.

Is there a way to disable telemetry for nvidia before installing? Lots of files here I don't need like shadowplay...

>>58262871
TV panels are pretty shit unless you got a really high end one.

Ever since I overclocked my CPU, this cursor has been appearing more frequently and it is triggering my OCD....can someone explain it?

What is a good site that compares/benchmarks graphics cards that doesn't require you to click through a dozen pages?
I used to use anandtech but they don't have the cards I want to look at. I want up to date comparisons of the RX460, RX470 4GB, RX480 4GB, and GTX 1050Ti

>>58263101
the cursor itself is called 'working in background', i believe - it's when something that's not in focus (ie where you clicked last, or something running in another instance of chrome if you're using that) is doing something - it has nothing to do with overclocking unless you're using some kind of dynamic overclocking that's controlled by an application running in the background.

>>58262149
Is that a psu an if so, why is there a bloody lightbulb there?

>>58263125
http://videocardbenchmark.net/gpu_list.php

>>58263157
bonus points for this, if you enable javascript and hover over a card you get a little button that says something like 'compare' where you can add a few cards at a time and compare them

>>58263139
alright, so i shouldn't be worried? maybe it was like this before and Im just so paranoid about overclocking that ive been noticing it more now(?)

>>58263174
>>58263157
Thanks this helps
still open to more suggestions though something that test framerates in various games would be nice

mIRC won't let me use it after the trial period. How can I bypass the exit screen? Barring that, is there a safe crack out there?

>>58263139
and btw this thing seems to happen when nothing is really going on in the background. im monitoring my cpu in task manager and its usage is low but the "working in background" cursor is still going off....kinda stumped about this

What are the actual consequences of never updating Windows? Specifically after October, when they introduced cumulative updates that you can't tell what's in them.

>>58263205
it's definitely confirmation bias

>>58263212
you said benchmarks, though.. that usually means higher number = better, tested through emperical means. framerate tests don't mean much unless your system is the same as their testbench.

>>58263218
well, modern windows does a lot more maintainance on itself than windows 95 did, which is when i was last doing stuff involving this sort of thing - but generally speaking anything that triggers 'working in background' is something that's not taking up a whole lot of cpu cycles, or it shouldn't be running in the background in the first place.

>>58263213
stop using mirc, it's a shitty client with multiple exploits demonstrated against it.

>>58263254
aside from the ever-present risk of exploits besides 0day ones? not much.
look, nsa already has microcode injected into your computer that makes it so that unless you airgap your computer with its own power generator in a faraday cage, they can probably read what you're doing even if you're encrypting it at application level.

>>58263288
>stop using mirc, it's a shitty client with multiple exploits demonstrated against it.
Which client do you recommend then?

Any one have the site for windows 7 license key. Used daz in the past but cant find a reliable source at the moment.

Luckily, I have no antivirus. Looks barebones compared to mIRC but so long as I can always use it. Managed to get to my network and channel just fine. For some reason Chatzilla doesn't acknowledge Rizon.

Can one set a bridge for a underprivileged LXC container if one is using network-manager? If so, how?

>>58263813
As somebody (not the guy you're replying to) who used mIRC forever and loved the way I had it set up, hexchat is the closest thing you'll get to that client. It may look a little funky at first and probably not run as stable as mIRC did, but it's still fast, light, and has a similar amount of features. It's one of the few categories of programs where I can honestly say the alternative to the big name everyone used is pretty good.

Put your server tree on the left, your user list on the right, expand the size of the chatbox a bit, set up your highlights, change the font if you need, fix the colors to something you're familiar with, and so on. You'll be right at home again.

I'm running on 2.4 Ghz right now, but I can't seem to connect on the 5 Ghz band of my router. I don't think it's the network adapter, though, because my laptop can't connect as well.

>>58262485
I'm pinging my router, so it seems to be a problem with my network adapter.

Are intel cpus like AMD CPUs in the sense that I can overclock them on just about any motherboard?

For example, my FX 6300 is running at a stable 4.2ghz on a cheap micro ATX motherboard and I wonder if I can do sort of the same shit with the i5 6600k.

>>58264281
Yes, but make sure to go for a gigabyte one and not the shitmsi and cuckasasus.

>>58264281
You need a z series chipset to overclock a 6600k unless you get an older version with unpatched firmware

My new build isn't turning on.
Already checked the CPU and it seems to be okay.
The GPU's led turns on, so the PSU might not be it.
I think I'm connecting the Power Button/Restart Button cables into the wrong plug. The red circle is where I have them right now.

I've got an FX 8350 Black Edition that's about 3 years old now. Recently I rebuilt my system, but I'm using the same mobo and CPU from before. I've been getting random bluescreens, and deducted that the CPU was causing the problem. At first I simply thought it was the temps, as it reached 60-62c while playing a game. I redid the airflow, and have been watching the temps, which haven't gotten high since. I opened AMD OverDrive and ran a stability test, and it gave me "Illegal sumeout" and "Possible hardware failure" twice, then self-stopped the test. I went into BIOS and messed with a couple of the settings, which I'm embarrassed to say I don't know much about. I set the "AI Overclock Tuner” to “D.O.C.P” in the BIOS, and it seems to have fixed the problem for now. Why am I running into these problems with my stock CPU?

Hello is this the stupid questions thread ?

1) Check this other red circle, make sure that is plugged in.
2) Make sure your RAM is properly seated
3) Your red circle is correct, its labeled F_PANEL aka Front Panel. Look at the manual though and make sure its plugged in the correct way. Could also try pressing the reset button as a quick test, I've put my power button on reset a few times.
4) Take out a stick of ram and try each one individually.
5) Manually reset CMOS (read the manually, usually means taking out the battery or flipping a jumper)
6) Take your motherboard out and make sure the standoffs under it are properly aligned, it may be shorting out.

If all that fails then it might be the PSU. A PSU can actually turn on idle components like a LED and fans but still fail to turn on the whole PC. Could be forgetting some things as well myself but should be a decent starting point.

>>58264657
This. My first PC I totally missed that red circle. It's a dumb mistake that a lot of people do.

1. It is. The cable has 8 pins, so I plugged the 4 pins that match and left the others hanging.
2. Checked.
3. There's where I fucked up. The new manual for M.2 motherboards has like 40 pages less than the previous manual. They shoved a bunch of stuff into QR codes located in the corner of pages and I missed them.

My brother got some thermal paste inside a 24 pin. How the fuck do I clean this shit? It got inside in about 4 holes.

Cum on it. Or use a swab with alcohol. Or a needle if it's too narrow.

>>58265633

>>58265677
Will it fry the motherboard if there's any left? I cleaned out most of it with a swab.

I don't know if it's something to do with optimization or what, but I don't really understand how I can take some game from 7 or 8 years ago and have it push my GPU to ~75C while a game from a year ago, with higher requirements, will push it up to ~65C. I even try playing the former at a lower resolution and/or windowed. I've set frame limits so I know it's not trying to push out hundreds more frames per second or anything like that. I just don't understand how a less demanding game could stress the GPU more.

Explain to me why the shit threads are autowatched and not hidden here.

im a senior CS student and i have to complete a 6 week internship in order to graduate

is there anything specific i should say in my emails? i have a list of places that have gotten interns from my school in the past, so i plan on just making it a short 2 paragraphs. im not sure how technical i should be or if i should even include a resume since i don't have any work experience or major projects. all i have is school work and everything that i've read has said to not include school work

another thing is that most people did their internships at my school during their sophmore year, so im not sure if i should include my transcript either since my grades arent very good (but they would have been good if i submitted it as a sophmore lel)

I have some hardware problems here, /g/.

>GPU temp above 100ºC
After 5 minutes in a game my video card temperature rises from 50ºC to 101ºC and FPS halves. Computer shuts down sometimes.

I've already tried manipulating the fan speed and exchanging the thermal paste, but nothing changed. My video card is an almost 4 years old GTX 670 FTW, should I just replace it?

Another question here: CPU temp at idle is between 44ºC - 48ºC, and when gaming it gets to 75ºC. Is it a good CPU temp? I use the stock coolers.

>>58266603

What do you mean?

I keep getting the missing driver error despite copying the drivers that came in the Motherboard's DVD. How should I put those drivers in the USB? In an image? I've been putting them in only as folders.

>>58266728
In the installer?

Did you install AHCI and USB 3.0 drivers?
Are you installing to a 1151 socket motherboard?

>>58266691

You're telling me you're detaching the frame and heat sinks from the GPU processors, and reattaching them after swabbing/cleaning the thermal paste off and reapplying more?

Wtf are you doing with your thermal paste, pouring it on?

When you encrypt your storage or phone, does it mean that the OS will need to decrypt the files first everytime before you can actually read/use it ?

>>58266740
In the USB.
I have no idea how to. All those drivers are in a DVD that came in the MB's box.
Yes.

>>58266746
Yeah, well, I cleaned the old thermal paste and applied a new one; just a drop. It's the same I'd do with a CPU if it was the case.

Anything wrong?

>>58266752
Yes

>>58266752

No, that'd be pretty unoptimized.
It means anything that isn't the OS that is trying to access it must decrypt it.

Think of it like encrypting traffic entering/leaving a VPN, but not inside.

If it's only started recently, then I'd assume it's just its age showing, and you're safe to get a new one. Now's a good time with the 10XX series.

If you've always had that problem, I'm surprised you haven't killed yourself yet after 4 years of it.

>>58266882
Of course not. It started just recently. I noticed that my FPS was literally cut to half after just some minutes of gaming. I suspected it was the temp and installed a monitoring software. Turns out I was right.

Guess I'll just buy a 1060. It's not that expensive and it's a good card.

thoroughly clean dust out of the fins and off the fan blades
removing the bulk of dust only works for a while, if a coating of harder-to-remove stuff gets on there, it ruins fan efficiency and insulates the heatsink (trapping heat)

older chips don't run hotter just because they're old, they produce the same amount of heat until they die, the only thing that changes is the condition of the cooling system

>>58267028
Already tried it ;-;

>>58267037
you dismantled it entirely, and cleaned it back to practically-new, shiny condition, and it didn't help?

are you sure nothing else has changed? something external blocking airflow to/from the card? reduced airflow in the case? (added some hdd's, maybe?), different case than when you got the card?, etc

it could also be your setup has always caused a high temperature, and just the act of running more intensive games on it has pushed it over the edge

>>58267067
Yes. Cleaning It did help, but only at idle temperatures.

I actually added a new HDD, but it was 6 months ago.

It could be the summer, I live in the southern hemisphere and it hits 30ºC easily everyday. My old card may be suffering because of this.

>>58267137

>>58267028
One case of overheating causes the chance of another overheating to increase exponentially.

101 degrees Celsius is laughable, causing the computer to shutdown (most likely just the card, and its display capabilities), I don't think it's gonna be working in its peak efficiency, regardless of its cooling mechanisms.

So my girlfriend and I live 2 hours away. We do watch a lot of videos on various streaming sites together. We sync up and then for some reason after a few minutes I'm several seconds ahead of her. Her video never buffers so that's not the problem.

I've tested the result on 4 of my computers and 5 of her own and it's consistent among all of them.

Any ideas?

why is weibo so slow to westeners?

Could be the video player software is unreliable.
Could be the browser is causing it to skip/slowdown.
Could be the CPU not able to keep up.


If you and her watched a downloaded version (e.g. with vlc) I don't suspect you'll have the same issue.

>>58267263
clock sync is a difficult thing to achieve

what you need is a player that will constantly adjust the playback speed slightly to match the other person

>>58267409
facebook in china is blocked

>>58267409
Internet is a series of tubes. The tubes to china are very long, so it takes a while for stuff to come through to the other side.

>>58267409

Facebook has servers worldwide. So when Chinese try to connect (assuming they can), they connect to their lowest-latency (usually closest) server, so they get fast load times. You do the same thing when you try to access FB.

Weibo probably ONLY has servers in China, meaning the only way for you to get there is to make a round-trip to China. Which is slow.

Is it a terrible thing to have the cpu 8 pin cable resting on top of the upper section of the cpu heatsink?
The cable was slightly too short to be comfortably routed through the back, so I couldn't be arsed and just left it there.
Pic related is my cooler and my i5 6500 isn't generally getting any hotter than 60 degrees even under heavy load for extended periods, and I'm assuming that the top fifth of the heatsink will be significantly cooler than that.
As far as I can see the cables should be able to handle such temperatures just fine, but it's not going to gradually wear it down and give me trouble a few years down the line, is it?

>>58267769
its fine as long as its not putting enough stress on it to lift it off or something

>>58267769
Yes.
Your PSU is probably backwards.

>>58267780
It's just touching it a bit without any stress. The cooler is pointing upwards due to space issues with the gpu and doesn't really hinder the cable at all.

No, they're not. BSODs are a sign of shoodily written drivers, or in rarer cases a sign of malfunctioning hardware. Modern virii has no use for a non-functioning computer or even a computer where the user suspects something is wrong, they'd much rather stealthily use your computer and/or its internet connection for something useful, making it part of a botnet, because that way they can make money while you take the fall.

>>>/reddit/

>>58269077
Here's the thing, nobody actually knows because the only virii you have to worry about nowadays is the kind that modifies itself on-the-fly, making it basically impossible to detect with definitions or even heuristics - and the only benchmark for antivirus software anyone has come up with is how many definitions they can handle (and what the fuck does it matter if a antivirus program knows about a virus that's 25 years old? There isn't even a 16-bit execute path in Windows anymore).
The one built into Windows 10 is ~good enough~ in that it'll catch what the others catch when they catch it - the only way to be reasonably protected is to have ublock origin+noscript, never download files, and praying to Dennis Ritchie that nobody will find an exploit for your browser or any of the hundreds of libraries it uses (like the recent jpg rendering exploit which caused safari to be susceptible to remote execution, which could've been coupled with a priviledge escalation exploit - just as an example, mind you - Windows and Linux could also easily be suceptible to these kind of exploits, and have been in the past).

Disclaimer: I don't know shit about electronics.
I recently moved to a new apartment. None of the electrical sockets have the third pin for grounding. I'm getting shocked by a bunch of my computer equipment when I touch metal parts if my computer has been turned on for a while.
What the fuck do I do? I assume it's a grounding issue right`. But then again, where I lived before, there also wasn't a third pin, and I didn't get shocked like this.
Can take some pics of sockets and shit if it will help. I just want to not get shocked any time I try to insert an aux cable and shit.

>>58269131
Should also note that I changed power supply shortly before moving, after my old one exploded on me. Dunno if that's relevant. Can PSU's electrify shit like this?

>>58269131
What kind of flooring did your previous apartment have, and what does your current apartment have? That has a lot to do with getting shocked, but there's very little you can do about it if there's no grounding on your cables and you have carpet.

Wood flooring both places. I have my computer on my desk though - is that a bad idea?
And can PSU's really do that? And if that's the case wouldn't it be doing it all the time? It takes several hours/days of my computer being turned on before I get shocked.

>>58269881
Yes but QEMU is designed to work more like a bare metal hypervisor without requiring much of an os running in the background. Makes it more efficient, and allows for easy switching of OSes.

>>58269882

No. You'll need an android emulator

>>58269882
Manefacturer FTPs, mostly. Any other source is unreliable and likely to be infected with malware that's practically undetectable.

>>58269892
Android runs on ARM, so unless you're willing to put in a hell of a lot of effort, no. Android Studio and SDK tools contains a ARM emulator that you can use.

>>58269900
Sure, but bare-metal hypervisors like Hyper-V, ESXi and, arguably, bhyve all are intended to be used to run multiple OS' all the time, not switching between OS'. Besides, that's not this usecase.

>>58269910
I normally just leave the current /SQT/ open in a tab, check in periodically.

>>58269918
The point is that QEMU is about as simple and as close to the experience of booting up 95 on a modern PC as you can get.

What gives? Only thing I've changed recently is getting a new vid card, but I had the card quite a while before the flashing started, and nothing is wrong with the card. Is this like one of those automatic tire pressure gauges that always tells you your tires are low despite them being just fine? I'm getting the same vibe.

Anyone deal with this shit before? What'll fix it? Factory reset? New cables? Ignore it?

>>58270060

Never mind this question. Factory reset seems to have fixed it. That was easy.

>>58269590
It's specifically the plugs and stuff. Like the computer AUX connections, AUX connections on my sound card, connections to my keyboard.

So I just install Win8 to a USB flash drive?

>>58270124
>Write protection?
No, it's just not built to let applications install the normal way, with registry integration and all that. You have to use a special process

>So I just install Win8 to a USB flash drive?
You can't install normal windows to anything but an internal drive. win-to-go is a special kind of windows designed to run a hardware check every time it boots to load up the appropriate drivers.

>>58266016
Have you overclocked your cpu? If so try disabling cpu and pcie spread spectrum in the bios.

If its an older motherboard, it can be just shitty/worn out components also, in which case you're fucked.

What's the best OS for a NAS that is exclusively for doing incremental backups and deduplication of a server?

Also keep in mind that that NAS shouldn't been powered on 24/7, since it's actually only for backup and only light redundancy like ZFS Z2 is required.

Also there are hardware limitations, hence I'm not sure that FreeNAS is the right choice. The server that will become the FreeNAS is limited to 24GB ECC RAM and it's already 35TB of data.

>>58270135

Nah f.a.m i aint about that shit

>>58270261
Yeah use that. An external SSD/HDD would be best, but any large enough flash drive should work in a pinch. You might look into USB 3.0 ones with faster random read speeds

What about drivers?

Also how to activate it after making it?

>>58270416
It installs generic drivers automatically, same as a normal install. Windows 8 and above shouldn't need special drivers, windows 7 needs the xhci patch for usb 3.0 just like normal win7 would. I believe that using that third party utility you don't have to worry about activation, you just need an activated windows pc to create it on

>>58270486
>third party utility you don't have to worry about activation
That's worrisome.
Is it safe?

Is there a program like Flux that allows you to decide when the warmer color starts?

Like, I want it to start around like 9pm. Not fucking 3pm like it does now.

Why do I need to install multiple versions of.net framework?

Is there anyway to reskin qbittorrent? It's ugly as fuck

>>58270546
Maximum botnet compatibility.

>>58270499
As safe as software companies are in general. It's not that it's somehow rigging you up a pirated license. Windows mobile variants don't require activation in the same way that normal windows does. But the tool to create a win-to-go disk is normally only included in enterprise/education editions. This lets you make a disk from any version of windows

>>58263652
try using *.xc instead, every file ending in .xc will be processed

>>58270252
anyone?

>>58270658
>Windows mobile variants don't require activation in the same way that normal windows does
Then why doesn't MS provide it?
>But the tool to create a win-to-go disk is normally only included in enterprise/education
You mean if I got the Enterprise Win8 I can make Win2Go naively?
That's pretty cool, why would they not include it by default?

I tried to hold f8 to boot in into safe mode but I only ended up on a black screen with cursor and nothing else

What do?

>>58270680
They're trying to motivate people to buy enterprise without making the licensing on the actual mobile installations too restrictive and hard to authenticate. Microsoft usually doesn't make it very easy to install mobile the way they do standard, but they give other companies free rein to repackage them. And yes, if you had enterprise you could do it easily without 3rd party tools.

stuff newer than around 2004 aren't gauranteed to have drivers or support win9x, and even then, it'll be 98/ME only, support for 95 died out around the turn of the millenium

there's very few cases where 98SE won't work in place of 95

And I wasn't the only one:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2005-May/087929.html

When did Linux add Xinerama support? Oh wait, nobody knows for sure because Linus didn't believe in source code revision control.

Everything from the very first version of UNIX can be documented all the way up to the latest version of FreeBSD: https://github.com/dspinellis/unix-history-repo.
