  1. Control Panel -> Power Options What plan is currently active?
  2. Quick question. What power plan are you using?
  3. Check out this thread: Pick something from one of the first 3 tiers. Bestbuy's Insignia brand power supplies are very poorly made and should be avoided.
  4. Didn't Linus literally say right at the start he just got out of doing something else, literally right before the stream started last Friday?
  5. Cough. Asus Hyper Card I have a feeling I don't want to know how much that cost, but would definitely want to have that. Best part is he still has more than 16 PCI-E lanes for graphics, unlike X299.
  6. It's stuff like this that keeps me manually installing updates. Microsoft on the other hand.... Edit: Hmm new default avatars.
  7. Hey, just watched the lastest techquickie. Google does store your location and time at location (including driving). (Must be logged in to a Google Account for this link to work) https://www.google.com/maps/timeline?authuser=0 If you select and individual day in the top left, it will show your driving track and all estimated destinations. If you select the gear in the bottom right, you can request this data by deleted, pause google saving your location history, or even download the entire dataset they have for your account in JSON or KML format. You can even download an archive of all your account's emails, or better yet, up to 50 GBs of past google searches. I tried mine and it gave me all the searches I've done since the first time I joined made an account back in summer of 2006.
  8. Now, they only need to move the decimal point 3 places to the right and then you'd have a real fine.
  9. Flip them around, put the top card in the lower slot and the lower card in the top slot and see if the issue moves with the card or stays with that slot. (If it moves with the card your display will shut off (or won't start upon powering on), so if that does happen, don't panic, shut the system down and switch them back) Also when taking the second card out, visibly inspect the slot and card's pins for obvious signs of shorting or other damage. (On a side note, you can try using DDU to uninstall the drivers and re-install them to see if that fixes it too, as that sometimes is an issue)
  10. This paired with a couple RX Vega 64 and your PC can replace the furnace in the winter!
  11. Good luck with that. Nearly all of congress has someone involved with the big four cell providers and/or the large cable companies as their major donors.
  12. Well this was a first... I viewed the video when it was listed by youtube as 2 minutes old: No 144-720, no 1440-4k. So used to seeing it process it out 360->480->720->1080 etc.
  13. I have had 4 unintended 911 calls in the US and 1 in Canada. As long as you talk to the dispatch and follow instructions, wait for the officer and explain what happened. You'll be fine. In the instance in Canada I was asked to take the battery out when not making a call.
  14. If he connected, a simple explanation that the phone failed to call 911 earlier would get him out of trouble, Worst case scenario they would dispatch an officer and he'd have to explain in person and would be easily sorted. It very rare to get changed for the one non-emergency. Normally takes having a history of non-emergency calls before you get charged. Source: I had a Blackberry 8120 some years ago that kept calling 911 (The emergency call option kept getting selected by being in my pocket) on it's own.
  15. I have an 8320 on a Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0 with latest BIOS. 1. It has served it's purpose, a stopgap between the Phenom II 1090T and the current gen stuff. (July of 2 years ago Options was 8320+390/970 or i7+270/370/960, chose getting better graphics card.) It was okay, it's starting to struggle with Battlefield 1 causing frame dips if I don't bump the clocks to 4.3ish (Which takes 1.4v instead of 1.3625 I'm using for 4.11) and turn the AC down to 68F to keep the socket temp from going above 74c (I have a Window AC unit to help keep this room down in temps because I have a few servers in here as well) 2. I think I lost the Silicon Lottery, @ max overclock I've gotten long term stable is 4.11 GHz with a 212 evo in ambient ~25c, I get package temps of 30c idle, 64c max prime95. Socket temps of 41c idle, 74c max prime95. Aida temps are package 55c, socket 61c 3. I ended up with the 390 based on the gains the 290(x) and 79XXs made with driver improvements. 4. I have a early LED 24" 1080p Samsung Syncmaster E2420. It's only 60hz so I run everything capped @ 60 FPS to stop tearing. Only issue's I've had is the recent patch for GTA 5 for some reason dropped my FPS into the 20s-30s from where it used to only occasionally drop to the upper 40s and stay capped at 60 when not surrounded by many vehicles. Plus as mentioned BF1 occasionally has issues with 100% pegged utilization. 6. 8/10, I ended up paying $220ish(USD) for the 8320 and the M5A99FX Pro R2.0 in a Micro Center combo (Add 8.25% sales tax and ~$4.50 in fuel driving 36 miles to the nearest Micro Center. Also bought the 390 and a SSD at the same time on July 2nd, 2015 I think. I remember the tax being more than $50.) So it's done it's job. Plan is Coffeelake i7 or a 1700, depending on RAM prices leading up to Coffeelake's release, kinda want 32 GBs of DDR4 so I don't have to worry about it again til whatever succeeds DDR4. (Still using I think from 2008, x4 4GB dimms of DDR3 1600 from Kingston.)
  16. Why not put in the rest of the standoffs?
  17. Whatever you do, don't let him keep it. It just encourages this kind of crap to keep happening. The picture should be enough proof to determine if you get the same one back.
  18. Steam had a little hiccup. A few different game's reviews weren't coming up for a bit as well.
  19. Rockstar was created by Take Two in the first place. They own the rights to all the games created by the studio. https://trademarks.justia.com/861/24/grand-theft-86124384.html Grand Theft Auto is trademarked by Take Two, not the studio Rockstar.
  20. If there was ever a time Rockstar should think about splitting from Take Two, now is the time. While they can't use the GTA name, I'm sure that any similar game made by them under a different name would see plenty of success, especially if it embraces modding.
  21. ...and they've turned left instead of right, and still haven't found a place to make a u-turn yet.
  22. Oh well, I go tired of waiting on the 120mm x15mm thick fan and ended up getting this also ugly thing instead back in February. At least is on the side that doesn't have a window.
  23. Don't gimp on the power supply, from experience, you'll regret it later.
