    StareX got a reaction from da na in Experiences with non-techies   
    Some girl went into a retail store screaming she wants her money back because apparently her phone is broken. It couldn't download anything, saying "Error" or not playing her songs. Where it should have and there was no defects on the phone.
     
    So the store keeper held her for approximately 5 minutes, and she started to scream "GIMMIE MY MONEY BACK". later on, 5 minutes after, her mom called and she started to go insane "AHHHHHH!!!! HE DOESN'T WANT TO GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!!!!"
     
    God, girl got some issues and ignorance about technology. LOL.

    Are you a retailer? No.
    Are you responsible for what's happening after you sold the card? No.
    Is this a 2nd hand market? Yes.
     
    Seems to me if you got the money, and he got what he came for, you're set and stone.
     
    Also... wait what.. "huuuge" I think you're in the wrong forum.

    StareX got a reaction from Dedayog in Noctua fan recommendation for the R6 Open Layout   
    Sorry, was too excited lol cuz I figured out I'm dumb not to set a Fan Curve all this time since Nov 2019 .-.
     
    But yes, I changed the fan configuration and it gotten better.
     
    I decided to also return to 5GHz on my CPU, and temps are like 47-50C on gaming, 70-75C on Cinebench R20 (Score around 4900-5060)
     
     
    But erm, alright then I guess I won't be spending cash on Fans... but honestly I'm just looking for ways to better expand the lifespan of my components and make my PC faster/efficient. ^^

    Noctua fans aren't magic.  They may drop a Celsius or two vs the other fans you have.  Is it worth the money?  Only you can decide that.

    Hi,
     
    Yes they are absolutely correct, by definition 56Kbps is considered a functional network speed.
     
    By today's standards, absolutely not, however they are not baffling you.

    StareX got a reaction from broskibichi in RTX 2080 TI Dual Monitor Problem   
    0 can't be divided by 0, same as you can't connect a Monitor to a Monitor, it doesn't work like that.
     
    And you can connect the HDMI to your motherboard, you must enable onboard graphics via your BIOS Settings.
     
    Press Del multiple times when you reboot your machine
    Look for BIOS Peripherals or something similar to it, and look for Intel graphics, or graphics, or onboard graphics, etc.
    It needs to show you 3 settings:
    - Enable
    - Disable
    - Auto
     
    Press on Enable, and you'll now be able to use the I/O Ports (VGA, HDMI, DP, etc)
     
    THIS WILL USE YOUR ONBOARD GPU, MEANING YOUR CPU. THIS WON'T USE YOUR GPU, WHICH IS CURRENTLY OUTPUT TO YOUR WORKING MONITOR.
     
    You'll have to use a DP to HDMI cable/adapter to make it work.

    StareX got a reaction from eemunni in 144hz matters in 60hz game?   
    Hertz is the SI unit of frequency, equal to one cycle per second.
     
    A game doesn't lock itself to a specific Hertz, some games lock their FPS because the engine doesn't suit the game more than the designed FPS.
    But if you have a monitor thats 144Hz, and the game runs at 144FPS (Your graphics card pushes that amount), then you'd be able to see these 144 Frames per Seconds.
    If a game runs on 60FPS but you have a 144Hz monitor, you'll experience heavy tearing because the monitor can't produce more than 60FPS while it can do 144.
     
    But the catch with high refresh rate monitors, is that if you put a 60Hz monitor against a 144Hz one and test a game that's 60FPS locked side to side, you'll feel much better with the 144Hz one than the 60Hz one.
    Why? Often because of the panel quality, the response time, frame pacing maybe, and all that inside stuff that has to do with the technology inside that specific monitor.

    StareX got a reaction from jiyeon in We made the perfect gaming mouse and you can too - DIY   
    Who's idea was it to do a clickbait like this? Or think of the script for this video?
    It lacks so much content and you guys justified it by saying "Oh, we replaced the batteries, and put a tiny battery, cut off the plastic, or put an aluminum and THATS IT! THE VIDEO ENDED"
    "If you thought this video sucked, which it didn't" Confident in your words, it did suck.
     
    And everyone says it loudly, why not remove this video.. say sorry... and make a better one, with actual 3D printed shell, how to replace it etc (Cuz I do have a 3D Printer store that can actually make that for me) and show us how you do it like you guys ALWAYS do.
     
    Didn't feel like LTT for me, felt too rushed, too quick to release. Just because you have millions of people watching you, doesn't mean you got to cut down on effort.

    StareX got a reaction from Lurick in I don't understand at all...   
    When talking about Steam downloads, typically Steam displays speeds by Megabytes and Kilobytes.
     
    Steam does  not provide you the information with Megabits unless you set it as such.
     
    Speedtest by default is Mbps, while Steam is MB/s.
     
    The difference is multiply by 8 bits or divide by 8 bits.
     
    your download speeds are 150Mbps, meaning Steam will display approximately 18MB/s, or as you describe 20-25 MBs.
     
    We dont know why Chrome doesnt work for you, but clearly this is not the right channel to consult on such thing as it is related to Chrome specifically with your computer, perhaps RAM issues or the program crashes because of something.
    We need more information on "what's not working".
     
    Networking wise you are fine.
     
    However if you have issues, there might be a problem with your router or WiFi card.

    1. Run speedtest.net to your country
    2. Run speedtest.net to Frankfurt GE
    3. Contact your ISP about why are they throttling you.
    4. And 2Mbps or 2MB?
    5. You use Wi Fi or Ethernet/LAN Cable?
