  2. Guessing it was your firs one, I see you're rolling with the x90 theme . Should have picked one up myself when they were "only" GBP 1500
  3. Hi LTT forum, I have aworking rig with a 10600k and Gigabyte z590i aorus motherboard, 32 gigs of ram and an 800w power supply. Everything works on its own just fine. I have a GTX 690 graphics card that I took to get tested at a store and the results were it runs just fine. Yesterday I went to collect the GPU from the store to install it in the rig given that I'm not going to be able to pick up a new one anytime soon with the current global situation of shortages and inflation (who saw this coming ) (crypto miners and scalper bots ). Anyway, I installed it and hooked up a mini display to display port into the back of an odyssey 240hz 1440p monitor. No signal. Nothing on the screen. The computer is on and running, but no output. Great, back to square one. My thoughts: PCIE is backwards compatible, okay. Display port is bidirectional, okay. Z590i and 10600k should be compatible. There is enough power. If I take the card out and use onboard with a DVI cable to the monitor it will 100% work. It must be then that the mini display port on the card doesn't work, so I bought a DVI to display port and a display port to HDMI cable (maybe a display port to HDMI too) to test different configurations, one of those routes to the monitor must be the issue. Second potential problem I can see, there are no drivers installed. Maybe display port operation needs drivers first for a monitor of this calibre? Normally you plug in first and head to the website to get the drivers second... I don't know. Finally, windows doesn't like any tampering with hardware nowadays. Perhaps it's detected this new card and thought, hang on, this isn't linked to this copy of Windows 10, we won't allow any function, but then it should still go to the BIOS at least. Any ideas? Thanks
  4. Hello LTT, I'm having some problems installing the ethernet controller for my motherboard. I've wiped all previous drivers that I can see from the SSD and have installed the latest drivers from the Intel and Asus website however on the intel website (following a scan) it says that the driver "cannot start". I have searched the network center that windows offers to try to diagnose problems but that offered no help, so I'm posting here for any suggestions. Please check out the attached screenshots. Many thanks, Tristan
  5. Fuck, who knew there was a correct response, this is like taking a college paper
  6. Shoot I should have done that more

  8. Hello LTT communit, I wonder if you can help me I'm experiencing broadband speed dips of around 95% through my two routers, daisy chained together and I'm wondering what on earth is the bottleneck when the second router is good for 54Mb wireless signal. My service provider is Virgin Media, who deliver via fiberoptic cable to their router 100Mb/s speed. From this router exits an ethernet cable (this cable carries the full speed to anywhere in the house) which goes upstairs to a 2008 Netgear Wireless G router WGR614 v9 which according to the website can achieve 54mb wireless. At the moment, the speed is around 5Mb dropping regularly to the kbps range. I have unplugged the ethernet in and put it into my devices which shows again around 100Mb. I've taken into account interferance from the room that the devices are in, and no way is it 90-95% loss even though there is a chimeny between us. From the DSL router downstairs, the ethernet out comes from a LAN port, in the Netgear upstairs it is plugged into the "Internet". I've rebooted both and that doesn't fix it. Any suggestions?
  9. What I’m trying to say is the data from say solidworks or games on the master SSD is sent to both CPUs for processing sharing the load and the graphics work can be done on the master and outputted to the monitor
  10. True, I’m just curious to see if a game load across my old 3770k which is almost bottlnecking can be shared across another Z77 processor via LAN and software. Load would be split 50/50 or so across the master and the slave. Not only for gaming but for cad and rendering and general performance for considerably less than a dual socket board with new Lga 20xx processor.
  11. Seems the only option but I don’t want to tear apart the love of my life and get new equipment. Sort of a cheap upgrade given I’ve got a Xeon quad core (not sure which version very old) but if that could some how be mated with or SLId with or load shared with my 3770k via an interface that would be pretty damn awesome
