Ok, please give me a hint here. I have a new pc r7 1700, 16 gb RAM, rx570 but recently when I start a video it freezes for a good 3-4 seconds before it starts. It even does it on youtube, though not for as long. What could be the cause for this? Video drivers? Codecs?

I think my PSU just died, but I'm not 100%. Is there anything else I should be checking?

My phone's call speaker is giving me problems, I noticed It works when I press on the glass around it, does this mean the connector somehow separated, can this be due to heat? The phone has a SD808 so I thought that might be it.

Why are b43 drivers such hell to get to work on Linux when its used on p popular laptops?

>>62142902
That can't possibly be adding 1,000 volts. Like that is completely inconceivable.

The average cpu has 1.2v and unless you know exactly what you're doing and you're an overclocking enthusiast you shouldn't be doing more than 1.4-1.5v. If your cpu was pushing ONE THOUSAND VOLTS it would melt your god damn processor.

I don't use the XTU but I assume it allows you to increase your cpu voltage by a maximum of 1.000 (not 1,000). I also recommend if you're trying to overclock your cpu not to use software but to do it from bios itself.

>>62142902
Never use software overclocking unless its a GPU.

Ryzen is not heavy or large unless you mean the threadripper specifically which is massive. However that's better to compare with Intel's own i9 processors which are pretty big too.

Pic related, the i9 is shown in the image on left with an i7 to the right.

I'd recommend sticking to i7 (intel) or an r5/r7 (AMD) if size bothers you. You also most likely do not need what threadripper/i9s are specifically used for.

microsoft teams via irc??
is it possible without a bouncer

my pc is stuck on a reboot loop that lasts for a good 20-30 seconds, it doesn't even get to the bios and theres no visual input on my monitor

i've already tried removing ram/gpu so i think it might be an issue with my cpu or my mobo ... any thoughts ;_;

What would cause individual programs for using more CPU than usual?

In daily gaming usage I tend to use 50% of my CPU and recently this has spiked up to 100% usage all the time. Like even launching any game or other intensive programs for a few seconds would cause the CPU usage to spike to 100%. Task manager would read out that the program itself is using 60-70% of my CPU which is more than my entire computer used to use a few days ago.

Do you know what would cause this? Like it works but at 100% usage my temps jump to 70 degrees from the usual 45-50. Not unplayable but it bothers me.

I've scanned for weird programs hogging the processor and did two separate virus scans and came up with nothing.

>>62142648

>>62143356
i know it's not even worth considering trying to use this thing at a thousand volts, i was just wondering what it was and why anyone would use it since even the smallest increment was 4 volts, which would easily kill any cpu.

>>62143195
I've never heard of people complaining about noisy mice so I can't help you there.

Keyboards with topre domes are super quiet (but super light, I personally hate them). Any keyboard with Cherry MX red/black silent are quiet too.

If you're a bit savvy you can rip off all the keys on any mechanical keyboards and install o-rings.

Go on mechanicalkeyboards.com and type silent red into the search and you'll find a good selection.

>>62143549
>backups
You can backup via the cloud but any decent solution cost money. Alternatively use something like Cobain and back up to an external/internal hard-drive or to an ftp.

I just have a hard-drive where I have cobain do weekly backups of certain folders.

>>62143621
You don't want a program to really be messing with your bios, more specifically your cpu. Most of these utilities are also pretty ambiguous about what they do and can lead to ridiculous cpu situations such as increasing your processor from 3.1ghz to 3.3 ghz but increasing it's voltage from 1.15 to 1.4

How do I hack stuff

I know C, I understand basics of buffer overflow and Im learning about computer networks. Read one Pentesting book for beginners.

How do I cross the line and learn practical stuff without getting raped in jail?

>>62143731
To add to this, I saw people saying install something called XOC, do I need that for the fans to start working?

>>62143731
That is normal. There's no reason for the fans to come on if it's not hot. You can of course use programs like XOC to set your fans at a certain % or to set a fan curve but if you're not overclocking the default should be 102% fine.

All you would really do is be increasing your electricity bill. If you're really that paranoid you can just add a fan curve that's a bit more extreme above 50c.

>>62143731
If you're just browsing the web and your gpu is sitting below 50C why would you want them to turn on? That's a waste of electricity.

>>62143798
Ah, thanks man. Like I said, ive used AMD cards forever, and their fans are always on, and considering all the "housefire" memes from back in the day about nvidia cards, well, you can understand my fear, especially since this is a brand new build.

>>62143803
well, my current AMD card in my old PC runs at about 60 when the fans arent cranked up, with them cranked I sit at around 30-32. Michigan weathers a bitch, also I figure its my old case too probably, bad airflow.

I gotta buy a 4TB drive, should I do it soon or wait a couple of months?

I KEEP FUCKING HEARING A SQUEAKING NOISE COMING FROM MY TOWER
I HAVE MY HEAD INSIDE THE FUCKING THING WITH THE SCREEN OFF AND STILL CAN'T TELL WHERE THE FUCK ITS COMING FROM
It's not from any fans that's for sure though

>>62143851
My next guess would be the hard drive then

>>62142672
AMD.

>>62143820
Yeah mate you're fine. If the Michigan weather is that shit and making pc run hot the fan would probably be on 24/7

Just download something that can monitor your temps and see what temp it reaches under load. If it's higher than you feel comfortable with then set a more aggressive fan curve.

>>62143851
Hard-drive
Shitty case vibrating
PSU fan
Water-cooling sounds
Double check your fans 1 by 1 by unplugging them (when it's off) sans the cpu fan.

Do you think we will ever build a dyson sphere around the sun? Like within the next 50 years or so maybe?

>>62144074
It would take hundreds of years to even prepare such a project

>>62144074
>Do you think we will ever build a dyson sphere around the sun?
It will probably never be necessary. Maybe large flocks of things orbiting the sun using thrusters to stay in place but building a sphere or ring around the sound is only good for dick measuring contests.
>Like within the next 50 years
HAHAHAHHA. we won't even space elevator in that time. If we try really hard we might get a hundred person permanent colony on the moon in that time.

>>62144111
>It will probably never be necessary.
I just think it's a horrible shame that the sun is releasing all this energy but we're just letting almost all of it radiate uselessly out into the universe without capturing and storing it. Even if we don't need it right away surely it will come in handy later, for example when the sun burns out down the line we would be glad if we stored it when we had the chance.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I think you guys may be right about the hard-drive.
I doubt it's the case, I don't think it's shitty. Maybe psu fan but I highly doubt it. Don't have any water-cooling because my rig isn't powerful enough to call for that. I stopped each individual fan to see if that was it (case, cpu, and gpu fans) and nope.

If it is the HDD what can I do that it? I bought this HDD less than a year ago, it can't be that bad now, it never has any problems loading data either.

I'm having some issues with damaged laptop, it's taken water, probably shock damage, I've got frayed cables, exposed wires, the screen is separated from the body of the machine

But when I power it on (with or without battery), often it turns on for half a second then immediately turns off.
not sure if it's hardware or software related, and the condition of the device is so poor I don't know how to diagnose.

also, what the fuck is the strip of tinfoil behind the screen for? does it matter if it's severed?

>>62144351
I'll answer this the best I can.

> it turns on for half a second then immediately turns off
Sounds like the motherboard is fucked, but the power supply is still supplying power to it to try and turn on. So the board surges and then the thing switches back off, that's what's happening.

>what the fuck is the strip of tinfoil behind the screen for
Insulator

>does it matter if it's severed?
Yes. It wouldn't be there if it wasn't important.

Help! for some reason I'm not getting any signal back from my monitor when I plug it into my PC. I've tried an HDMI cord with my onboard graphics from my mobo and also an hdmi and displayport with my gtx 1080. Does anyone know what could possibly yield something like this?

so a screwdriver won't fix this one huh?

I re-attatched the screen with fishing wire, re-connected the shorted out wires, fuck I even changed the screen resolution so the display isn't projected onto the damaged area of the screen.

but about this insulator, the two pieces of metal that border the screen are broken and so is the tinfoil strip

Going to make a bubble sort in C++. Before I try is it possible, easy or not, to make one without using the swap keyword?

It's absolutely not worth getting. A 1050 is the lowest card you should be looking at if you want to play video games, and that's $100.
Or get something used.

>look over the internet, sadly this issue is a dime a dozen and hundreds of people said they saw success with just reinstalling drivers for a video card all the way to unplugging their shit and plugging it back in.
Im very confused at the moment and felt I would just come to you lads. I am sure it isnt a heat issue as my temps never get above 50c on my gpu and my cpu never gets above 30. I think it might be a PSU issue but am not sure what to do to check for it in that case. Already updated all my drivers to see if there was an issue there, it didnt fix the problem.

>>62144502

>>62144648
I don't know C++ but if you're sorting in an array you could take the variable that needs to be swapped and assign the value to a temporary variable.

example in probably not a real language:

temp = bubbleArray[n];
bubbleArray[n] = bubbleArray[n+1];
bubbleArray[n+1] = temp;

>>62144703
rip desu, probably did something wrong :c
when I built mine I used an hdmi into graphics card and it worked fine

>>62144773
Sorry, what I meant was if you could go through a whole bubble sort to where it's fully sorted. I believe in C++ you can use the keyword "swapped" as a boolean. If it swaps, then keep going. Eventually once it's all sorted it won't swap so it will return false.

Was wondering if there's a way to do this without resorting to such. I assume there is given somethings, but I wouldn't know.

>>62144821
You pretty much nailed the first way I thought of. You can have a boolean that gets flagged 1 if it finds an element that needs to be swapped. At the end of the sort if the flag is 1, flip it back to 0 and go through the list again. If the flag is 0 sorting is finished.

I'm considering installing KDE Neon but there's one thing that stops me from installation. Because Neon's based on Kubuntu, does it have that privacy issue on Ubuntu (amazon search)? I know this privacy issue got pretty old now but I still can't trust Ubuntu.

>>62146407

I'm not saying that you should unconditionally trust Ubuntu, but THAT particular issue was only ever with the Unity desktop AND it hasn't been a thing for a few years now.

Windows 7 doesn't have support anymore, does it? I dunno why but I can't get my copy to let me work without a ton of crashes. All updates to date are installed, drivers up to date, tested with chkdsk and memtest86, no problem detected, but it still crashes.

I actually just did a fresh install and tried to update windows, it failed, crashed, then when it turned back on it sat for 20 minutes reverting the changes. What do I upgrade to?

>>62147553
There's a million reasons why it could be. It's likely a hardware issue more than a software issue.

Also just because something doesn't have support doesn't mean it'll magically break. It just means it doesn't get updates anymore and will usually not be supported by newer hardware/software.

Also, do you think it's a good idea to make the home server serve as a switch as well? My current switch is pretty shit and it would save me some cable management.

Why can my shitty 2-in-1 run games like Crimzon Clover and Sonic Adventure 2 with nary a hitch, but can't run emus like snes9x and FCEUX at full speed to save its life? I remember running those on an old XP machine, though maybe my memory doesn't serve me as well and the performance wasn't as good as I remember.

It's running an atom x5-z8350 and 2gb ram, by the way. I'm not sure if it's the ram, though, since the slowdowns are frequent but my ram usage is usually hovering around 60-80%.

q6600s were pretty power hungry (140w tdp) but you would probably be fine, you can check how much power it draws by connecting it up to a killawatt or some other cheap power meter

the concern is that if it does draw close to or over 250w it's going to be putting the psu under a lot of load shortening the lifespan

>>62149512
there's no reason it shouldn't boot but the bios might be throwing an error about no output like they sometimes do with no keyboards, if you knew the com port was enabled you could read the serial output to see how far it's getting

>>62149494
best practice dictates you run multiple passes on each individual stick in each individual port to rule out any intermittent issues or any issues with an individual socket, some people recommend only running overnight without really moving sticks about, some people running 72+ hours, etc, if you think the ram is faulty and it's an intermittent issue it's generally a nightmare to diagnose so it boils down to how much time you want to waste testing it

>>62149512
>>62149910
you might be able to clear the cmos as well to try and get some sane defaults but if it's a new build it might need to run a setup first and the manual probably warns against clearing cmos before setting it up

>>62142672
When you're invoking the elder gods to cool your CPU.

>>62149953
well if you have found a fault all you'd need to do is run a full past with only one stick installed, try to keep the sticks where they were installed when you found the error as it might be a problem with the socket and not the stick, in which case it might only take up to 4 hours to find, it only starts taking a stupidly long time when you aren't getting any errors and you still suspect, or know, that it's a memory issue

Can someone tell me which one is the front panel switch, Manual isn't helping at all

Is there a way to make ISO out of cue and bin files? I'm trying to convert PS1 videogame disc images.

Yes, the G400 is quite old now. They had a G400s and a G402 in the mean time.

SSD is at 10% health, anything i can do about?

I'm not sure if this is stupid or not but I can't find any decent answers online. I've got a shitload of items in my eBay basket, like 38. They're all available and all that, but when I go to checkout half of them are missing. The fuck is going on? They're all in the same currency and all within my country and obviously all in Buy Now format.

>>62151287
Cool, although what i meant is that the G403 is cheeper than G400 for some reason, not the other way around (my bad), that being why I found it weird that the newer, objectively better mouse would be cheeper.

I've sent a cancellation request on the Rival mouse and will purchase a g403 instead if it passes. Thx anon.

is these super fast m2 ssds good?
do you notice a difference from normal ssd?

>>62151298
> health
What the fuck is that even supposed to mean? Install SSD-Z and Google the SMART field names until you understand what's going on. There's probably nothing wrong with the drive.

they're only selling top-model XPS here (i7, QHD) so it's a bit out of budget.
The 15" Yoga 720 doesn't look too bad and it's a bit cheaper, is it gonna do fine and be worth the price or should I look elsewhere?

>>62151545
sounds like a DAC?

is there a way to grab video from a site like 9anime and play it with MPV? mpv + youtube-dl doesn't work out of the box - compains of a handshake issue. 9anime probably tries to stop this kinda thing.
Watch With MPV firefox addon doesn't work with Palemoon.

Will I have any problems connecting a laptop with a 1600x900 screen to a full HD external monitor, if I want to use it as an extended desktop (so both at the same time, not mirror the laptop screen)?

If it connects to the audiojack it's an amp, and it just has multiple in and/or outputs

My mouse has started disconnecting then reconnecting shortly after.
What could be causing this? The USB ports on the motherboard or the mouse itself?

I bought ryzen 1700x and also 3200mhz ram
when i put ram on 3200mhz, it wont boot
motherboard asrock ab350m pro4

How do i solve this????
Did i buy wrong motherboard?? there is almost no matx ones!!

>>62150701

>>62151789

Yes

>>62150701
uninstall w10 get back on that w7 anon

>>62151789
You have to oc the ram to get it to support 3200
Make sure xmp profile is enabled in the bios

>>62151830
yes thats what i did, went into bios, put it on the xmp 2.0 or whatever it was named and it popped to 3200mhz, but no boot after save and exit.

>>62151843
Check led lights on mobo and correlate them to the manual

>>62151746
AVS but I wouldn't pay for it
There's also videolan

There's also Wax if you want something moderately advanced, but still free

>>62151864
is it the motherboards fault?
good thing this one was dirt cheap, 70 euros lol...

thx, ill replace this fucker when someone manages to release a decent matx am4

>>62151884
The motherboard has lights on it that indicate what when wrong during post, find the red one and then figure out which one that is and then check that part

I overclocked my ryzen 1600x to 3.9GH but I get the exact same score on cinebench as before the overclock.

Ryzen Master even shows the new clock and voltage (same as bios), but how can I test if the overclock really worked?

>>62151789
I know this feel.
I've bought a fucking Asrock Fatal1ty X370 k4 and 16gb (2x8gb) 3200ghz HyperX Predator and can only boot at 2666ghz on AGESA 1.0.0.6a.
They even discontinued this fucker and changed the info on ram support from 3200ghz+ to 2933+.
Fuck asrock, never again.

>>62151746
ah-bloo-bloo

>>62151940
>I overclocked my ryzen 1600x to 3.9GH but I get the exact same score on cinebench as before the overclock.
That just means your cooling is good enough that cinebench doesn't push it below turbo speed. You'll need to use some other benchmark to see the difference.

help please I know this is retarded

I'm going to be starting a fresh install of linux alongside windows. I like Openbox a lot and I want something more minimal than default Ubuntu.

If I'm just going to be installing Openbox, what distro should I grab? I'm considering Debian or Arch, but I'm wondering if Arch is way too minimal and an absolute pain to set up drivers for / etc, compared to Debian.

Thanks in advance lads.

Be aware of the asus and acer 1440p ones.
Had to send 4 RMA's to asus to get a good one, this was ~2 years ago though, maybe higher quality now.

1). What's the low-down on CPU stats? I know Ghz are basically clock cycle speeds and more is better. Cache helps operations. And cores (plus hyperthreading) allow more simultaneous calculations without a performance dip, but what about the secondary technologies? I know some CPUs have onboard graphics and others are optimized for specific tasks. Is a (pretend with me) Pentium 3.0 Ghz in anyway comparable to a i5 3.0Ghz in terms of regular performance?

2). Any thinkpad modding resources?

follow some guide like this:

I cobbled my PC together though, shouldn't it say something else?

//CApp.h
#ifndef _CAPP_H_
    #define _CAPP_H_
 
#include "SDL2/SDL.h"
 
class CApp {
    
    private:
    bool running;
        
    public:
        CApp();

        int OnExecute();
        
    bool OnInit();
};
 
#endif

Then in the main file:

//CApp.cpp
#include "CApp.h"
 
CApp::CApp() {
}
 
int CApp::OnExecute() {
    return 0;
}

bool CApp :: OnInit() {
    
}

 
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
    CApp theApp;
 
    return theApp.OnExecute();
    theApp.OnInit();
}

When trying to compile, it says "No OnInit() member function delcared in CApp class", but it clearly is...
The OnExecute() function works fine, and if I don't try to define OnInit(), it compiles. What the fuck is going on? Why is it selectively seeing some things and not others?

>>62152965
EDIT:
The OnInit() function simply returns 0 for now, and that doesn't change the fact that it doesn't compile.
This is less to do with SDL and more to do with what the fuck is going on with C++.

I recently got a pair of JBL LSR 305 speakers and have them plugged straight into my PC, they sound great but produce a nasty hissing noise when I turn their volume knobs up. I assume this is due to electrical interference as the hiss is much less when I plug it into my phone.

Would buying an inexpensive DAC like a Behringer UCA202 be sufficent if I just want to get rid of the annoying hissing?

>>62151237
Mount or burn it. Than create an iso as you would from any other real disk.

> What's the low-down on CPU stats?
They're all bullshit. Just Google CPU reviews. Specifically ones that compare the performance of two CPUs in a specific application that is relevant to your interests. As in Anandtech or TechReport, not CPUBoss.

Retard here, in the middle of trouble shooting hardware, it just occurred to me to check my manufacturer website and update my bios and mobo drivers. I'm looking at the site on my phone and there's a download link.

My computer seems to be in some shit loop where I get about 15 minutes of time before a crash, is it safe to assume I just have to hit the site, download, and install? Nothing too time consuming?
