i get it it works now. Good and all. But me and my brother are about to lose our marbles over this. I cant find any explanation as too what makes it where my cpu no longer works in my motherboard. When they are the same 3900x from the same bin. ITs enough to make a man go mad.

Ok, got a bizzare issue I'm trying to understand. tried to start pc black screen, stuck on boot light, num lock doesn't react, no bios access. Nothing. Tried to fix for a while. Pulled out all drives I took my pc over to my brothers that has a similar build. We both have 3900x, different motherboards mine is steel legends asrock ,his is strix e-gaming. They both use x570 We tested and tested swapped ram first didn't fix it. Then we swapped cpus. He put his 3900x in my machine and my machine booted up once more. I thought it was a mobo issue at first but it started working. Assumed bad cpu. Then just for the hell of it, I put my "bad" 3900x in his motherboard, and it booted up as well. So doing a cpu swap, they both work. I was like weird. So I put my "bad" cpu back in my machine and the error happened again, black screen, no boot, no bios. I did reseat everything a couple times prior. So as it sits now. I can not use my 3900x in my motherboard at all. locks up. I'm using my brothers. But my cpu that stopped working, works in his. We've stress tested both machines, was wondering if a core went bad. But they both passed. He's using all 4 ram slots so was wondering if a ram connection died in the cpu chipmunks itself, but that isnt it. So I want to know, what the hell? What happened? My only working theory is that my bad cpu had something fry within the die, and my brothers motherboard doesn't use that circuit. But it makes no sense at all. I used that cpu in my motherboard since these chips dropped. I'm kinda tempted to just rebuild my pc, move up to ddr5. Just because of this weird issue I dont want to strike again. r if my mobo did something, dont want to damage my brothers cpu. I'm using his chip right now, hes using mine. bonus points, a fans bearing went bad and windows updated within the same period this issue arised with my machine

Sisters old pc I built for her from my old stuff has been blue screening lately. Just decided to do a entire clean up, thermal paste re up on everything, etc. Everything looked fine until I got to the gpu, old 970 I bought in 2014ish. I have about every year for all our systems, re upped the thermal paste on cpu/gpu. Well this time hers was blue screening. And when I lifted the gpu off, there as thermal paste on the edges, but on the die itself, it looks like there is just "water". I do not know what it is, that is what it looks like. Might do a taste test on it, lmao. So I'm asking. What could cause this. It is in a dry location, there is never "water" looking stuff on anything else either. Can certain brands of thermal paste turn to "water" over time? Ive used this exact same brand in all our systems and, none look like this except this one component. The liquid does not seem to be conductive either, no ohm measurement. I'm just curious if anyone has any idea what this is, or if my thermal paste is the issue. Because there was none on the die and explains why it blue screened on us. Thermal paste is TG-7 thermaltake. Dunno if it is aged thermal paste doing this.

I'm having a ton of issues trying to figure this out. This is a new house so everything is new.Our ISP is BTES from bristol TN Its a fiber service, Modem is mounted outside with 2 lans, 1 lan is going into the power box,. The modem has a cat 5 cable running into the basement, This is connected to a megabit Ethernet switch. Then this branches out to a router then. I'm reading you don't want a switch before the router because it can't route traffic. So I re wired everything and connected the router straight to the outdoor modem using a cat 6. When I do it this way the light turns orange and the router will not connect to the internet. But If I use a cat 5 cable and connect it to the switch the modems light turns green. I can then run a cable from the switch to thr router and get the internet to work this way. Issue is, whatever the switch sends traffic to first will get priority. SO the wired pc ( what I'm typing this from) will get full speed, about 80 mbits. But anything connected to the router will get like 25kbs. That isn't the only issue. We have a wireless printer that needs to talk to the router to talk to the pc, but this won't work with the current setup. Because the pc is connected to the switch, but the switch is connected to the router witch would connect to the printer. I can' talk to anything beyond the switch. It's just a basic 10/100 switch, does not route anything. I'm not sure what the issue is. I have this same internet at my house, connected to the same router and it works fine. I've cut the switch from the equation, but it will not work. If I connect the router straight to the the modem using a cat 6 it won't work, no internet and orange light. But a cat 5 connected to a 10/100 switch gets a green light. I am beyond confused. I've tried resetting everything. Releasing and renewing ip, this doesn't work. I'm not sure if its the cat 6 cable. But it works if I connect it straight to the switch then this pc. So the cable works. I don't know, but some guadance would be great. I can't seem to make any progress. If I need to give more information, just ask. I'm running outta ideas on how to track this issue down.

Oh yea, I agree 100% There is some parts I can buy for my ar-15 that does help with recoil, one of them is a hydrolic buffer. in the ar-15 normally when you fire the gasses go down a gas tube back into the bolt where the bullets are, this action creates more recoil, but it pushes the bold backwards into the buffer tube, which is the thing the stock is attached to next to your shoulder, in there is a spring and a buffer, the spring to push it back and reload the rifle, the buffer acts as a cushion of sorts so the bolts doesn't shoot out of the back of the stock and into your shoulder killing you and blowing the gun up. You can replace this buffer, the cushion if you will, with a hydrolic buffer that has a piston on it. The piston grabs the bolt and it smooths out the bolt slamming the back of the gun. Kinda like those spring loaded drawers that you can't slam, this does reduce the recoil by 30% some say they feel 0 recoil when firing their rifle. So there are some steps you can take to reduce the recoil. But it's a drone, not a person that is grounded and has a firing stance to brace themselves. even then it's going to sling that drone all over the place if not into a tree or into the ground.

Like I said that was a stupid metaphor showing that it does have its uses. no one will. I wasn't even serious when I said that.

I've been playing with electronics my entire life, like I was that 7 year old taking stuff apart. So I'm sure I could figure out the remote systems and the power systems, could take me years to do. But I haven't done anything with custom built drones. I don't feel like investing the hundreds it will take. Currently I'm just messing with smd repair trying to get my soldering under a microscope skills down etc. But I really have been wanting to get into custom building my own drone. someone else said it is illegal, and what you say solidify that I won't ever do it. I try to obey the laws. and I'd believe you when you say they shoot me or the drone, they don't know who is flying it.

Well yea, that's kinda the point. and I made a mistake when I wrote funny I was thinking of that quad copter someone made out of his cat then shove an airsoft gun up it's but so it shoots plastic pellets from it's but. I analogize for that mistake, isn't what that funny was for, I was getting ahead of my thoughts. But It would be cool not funny. there isn't nothing funny about it, no. But yea, a flying turret is supposed to be dangerous, needless? no, not at all. I do live in the woods an this is just future thoughts for some crazy scenario say if my state get's invaded. I could have cameras around my land and notice an isis a mile down my road with with an rpg, I could fly my homemade drone and take care of that problem. Of course that is not a good example and would not happen. Just a very lame metaphor. dangerous yes, that's the point, needless, not at all. That device would have real world practical uses. But of course it would also have a speaker and mic so if I did see a possible dangerous target I could talk to them and tell them to turn around I don't wish to harm anyone.

Really? I didn't know this. thanks for answering the legal questions. Still, I wouldn't want to do this. I try to obey the law. Hopefully I can find a video of someone else doing this, Thanks for the reply.

I'd probably say not to, there are some parts that let voltage flow when it reaches so many volts, then opens up like a blood gate. If two of these are together it could cause issues. Just like a simple resistor, 2 in series adds the ohms where as if it's parallel they will divided each other so 10 ohms and 10 ohms in parallel is 5 but in series is 20 ohms. If I had a bunch I'd crack them open and run some experiments, put my oscilloscope on it and test this idea, even then I could just google some schematics but honestly I'm in lazy pos mode Right now. Maybe some users here would be so kind to run these tests themselves. my lab is 10 feet awwawy and I don't really feel like it spongebob.jpeggy

I'm just randomly thinking and had the thought of strapping my ar-15 to a drone. What drones could hold that weight and the recoil. Of course I'd have to shave a lot of weight off of the rifle. I'd also like to hang it from a thing that has server motors connected to a raspberry or ardrino. Mixed with some kind of software that would let me control the x,y, and z axis of the think holding the gun on the drone with my phone that also controls the drone, probably would be a pain. I'm not serious about doing this, for one I can't afford it, secondly I don't know the laws regarding something like this and want to stay out of trouble. now if it was legal and I had thousands of disposable income yea, I would play around with it, and of course post it to YouTube for anyone else thinking this dumb idea. Has this all ready been done, link? I'd like to see it, sounds funny, or the cat quad copter with a bb gun in it's butt, lol. not serious. Has anyone tried this? Is this possible with current civilian drone technology? Would the recoil knock it outta the sky and screw with the self flying sensors and systems? Just a dumb idea that I'm sure millions of others have had, just really wanted some input, if it's been done before and how stupid am I for asking this? Should I make dinner for guest tonight what does the fbi like to eat?

Bumping so I can check back later and see this. Sounds awesome bro.

Have you forgotten the 970? I would say big companies fuck up more than small ones, more people are working for them, that is more points of failure, the chain get's longer and the weakest link chance increases.

That is pretty sorry if that is the official page. It is always safer to round down because it gives you wiggle room so to speak.
