  2. Budget (including currency): $300-$500 Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Baldurs Gate, Rainbow Six, and Apex Legends I am far from an expert of pc building so I am seeking some advice on upgrading my CPU right now as that seems to be my current bottle neck for gaming. Here is my current build: CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800x GPU: Nvidia RTX 2060 RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3200 C16 2x8GB Motherboard: Asus TUF GAMING A520M-PLUS WIFI Power Supply: EVGA 600 GD 600 W 80+ Gold Certified ATX Power Supply What CPU would give me a noticeable upgrade? Also, would I need to upgrade my power supply to better handle just a GPU upgrade or should I upgrade it for the CPU? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    This was very wholesome content in my FYP: I si…

  4. GN discusses their RMA process with their ASUS Ally. * told they had to pay $200 for a device in-warranty to replace a screen for a ding on the case, as they were considered 'one part' that they did not notice * no way to reply back except for the RMA challenge form * kept getting emails on how their device would be sent back dissembled if they did not pay * their Ally was returned back, with joysticks and memory card reader replaced * discussion on an article with the verge about the items being replaced and it could be a soft recall of the device * FTC has a form you can file warranty complains about that could led to files up to $37,000 per complaint All in all, glad I went with an ASRock motherboard recently.
  5. Honestly... If it's done right, like in game billboards and posters... I don't think it will be too bad BUT, if it's done badly... Well it would ruin a game for me ngl
  6. Shouldn't be. They upped it to >100k for the pent and based on the graph as soon as it dips to a certain threshold more are added.

    Another ASUS extortion/ Warranty scam, and they…

    Lol yeah, I just saw the video on my notification. I instantly said "Oh Asus... what have you done this time" in my mind
  8. is there a way to put password for virtual machines in virtualbox? Because i deleted virtual machines by accident
  9. RNMA tasks in progress is finally dropping, was around 520k and not 479k. Edit: Also tasks ready to send is no longer sticking around 100k and is only 23k. I hope that's not a bad sign.
  10. Thanks, I knew same computer couldn't do it but I suspected same account couldn't either. Wonder if I should create another account and split my computers (too late now though heh)
  11. Its something the project can determine. Its possible to do it, but most projects make sure it goes to a different person. AFAIK, it's default this way and the ones where you can be your own wingman you can't do so on the same host. AFAIK. I can't recall an occurrence of it ever happening, however I have recently seen someone who got a Prime on PG and they also completed the DC task. But PG is unique with their wingman, since it's a different task entirely.
  12. @SkillzTA Question, Quorum 2 work can the other WU end up being given to a computer on your account or does the allocator make sure it must go to a different user?
  13. This was the book I used in college, the class assignments were all hilariously done in Java on some toy Java simulator that mimics a kernel which all came from this book. The professor(he wrote the book) was atrocious and i barely learned anything but on the other hand, the class was an easy A with an easy introduction to the surface-level OS concepts without all the hardcore and tedious details that real kernel developments would be involved in. think of this like flight simulator vs actually piloting a Boeing 747. I would honestly just stop here as an amateur kernel developer. Carnegie Mellon has some of the more rigorous assignments on this if you want the actual hardcore stuffs with all the programming assignments done in C. edit: your 2nd link is on system security. completely different subject and topic. edit 2: your first link also seems to have little to do with operating systems kernel. those are more like unix system fundamentals. maybe it was just introducing the subject by teaching some common system apis. i see it only has materials up to its first exam. i would try to explicitly search online for OPERATING SYSTEM.
  14. Agreed. Product placement if done right and with the right product can be discreet, and may even help with immersion. I sure as heck don't want what I saw in Ready Player One Done awfully : My local TV show. Imagine a sitcom, and then there's a scene where A goes to B's house, and B offers a drink. B gives A a brand of a health drink, then A says it's tasty. Then B goes off a 2 minutes sermon, praising & promoting the drink and brands whatever while A listens and be awed. After that they continue the sitcom script. And if you guesses that I never watch local TV anymore, the answer is Yes, you are correct.

    I'm not saying I was ever that loyal to Asus, but given my last RMA experience with AsRock, I think I'm going to go with them more often going forward.
  16. It's going to be right up until the wire I think on this one
  17. I never did see if I could get those extra servers online, maybe I should Still pissed off 5 shat themselves and blew up
  18. na i have done none of that. i have been consistent in what i have been saying. people can go read it above. you just parroting talking points with no context. so far tiktok is still here and you seem mad about it.
  19. i recently reinstalled windowsn 10 on a old laptop of mine and everything works fine except when i plug in my earphones and play something the audio starts playing from speakers as well as my earphones and the earphones are not showing up in playback devices. I have already tried reinstalling drivers and troubleshooting but nothing seems to help. Can someone pls help me with this issue. I have attached a pic with the earphones connected and it doesnt show them.
  20. Press and hold Shift, Control, and Option. At the same time, press the power button. This should be the battery reset keyboard shortcut from what I remember
  21. Well lets say that each HDD is able to do 200 MB, USB 3.2 gen 2 is 20 gigabit, so roughly 12 drives would saturate each usb host. PCIE gen 4 x16 should not be a bottleneck as it is 32 GB/s per direction. But all of this is rather silly. Why would someone use usb for this? This is literally what HBA's are for.

    My kiwi looks weird

    Ah, hah! There is your problem then. It's not Zespri
  23. I agree I wanna make this something that can grow.

  24. Banned because I totally didn't read that as unbreaded.
