  1. Hey there! I am considering buying a Samsung Q60T TV. Together with this, I am going to use two Harman Kardon Onyx 6 speakers, connected via minijack (I have a stereo splitter for them). Only problem is that the TV doesn't have a minijack output, only HDMI and digital. This presents a problem for me. I could go with the competing Phillips PUS8555, but the panel seems to be better in the Samsung. So how can I do this? I am a student, so the budget is relatively limited. Should I invest in a digital to minijack converter, or perhaps some sort of DAC or AMP? It would be nice to adjust the volume on just a single knob or perhaps have some sort of equalizer, but that's not the priority. The most important thing is just that I can connect the speakers and get audio. Thank you for any help or tips you can provide
  2. I read some more, so it seems like you guys are correct. PCIe 2.0 2x is limited to 1000 Megabit/s, and I am hitting the correct speeds. However, I can't help but correct that you are using the term Gigabyte in place of Gigabit. My speeds are a bit under under 1 Gigabit/s, not 1 Gigabyte/s. My speeds translate to only 10% of 1 Gb/s.
  3. I was under the impression it was 1 GibeBYTE and not 1 GigaBIT?
  4. Hey there I just bought a new Corsair Force MP510 960 Gb NVMe drive. The read speed is listed well above 3000 MB/s. I have benchmarked it several times with CrystalDiskMark, but I am only getting speeds around 800 MB/s. I am currently running it on a MSI Z97s SLI Krait Edition. In theory, this MB supports PCIe 2.0 for the M.2 drive, which should be enough. I don't know if there is some limitation that I am not aware of, or if I may have configured something incorrectly. Is it perhaps not possible to run it in the normal 2x mode that is listed on the website for my MB (https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/Z97S-SLI-Krait-Edition/Specification)? Before you call me out for buying something that would obviously be bottlenecked by my current system, be aware that I bought this in anticipation of upgrading this fall to a 4th gen Ryzen system (there was a good sale on this SSD). Appreciate it
  5. The problem has been solved. It turned out the cable through the house was a telephone cable. We solved it by running a new ethernet cable (cat5) through the existing system. It now works perfectly.
  6. Hello everyone. I have been having problems with connecting my pc to the router via ethernet. The connection goes from the routers lan port, and into the wall (which is an ethernet cable that goes directly to my bedroom), out of the wall and into my computer. But my computer detects no connection. I used another computer to check the connections, and I found out that all the cables where working. The connection from the router (before it goes into the wall) is fine, and works. But when it comes out from the wall it doesnt work. In the past the connection through the wall was used to send internet from where my bedroom is, and to the router. Back then it worked perfectly fine. I really hope you can help me.
  7. Seems like a nice monitor to me. I would go for it
  8. Dont think so. But you can download the drivers on to an external hard drive, and then plug it into his pc and transfer the files. When you have transferred the files you can just open them and install. But why not just do it on his internet in the first place? How slow is it?
  9. Your regular ram (the one on the motherboard) is for the processor only. The graphics card only has its Vram.
  10. No, the only thing you will have to do is switch it and apply new cooling pasta.
  11. Well, well, well... Tested if the problem was the router or my computer. Turns out that it probably is the router. I tried watching twitch on my laptop, and the same problem occured. I believe it is the router, and according to my dad we have had it for a long time. Maybe it is just getting old I guess.
  12. It has been working perfectly for a year by now. Started happening a couple days ago. Is there another solution? Ethernet is not possible.
  13. Ok guys, so I recently got a new problem on my computer. When I play games, watch twitch or similar things my computer will kind of "jump" of the internet for a short moment. I don't know why, because it says it is connected when I take a look. It is bothering me because it causes my computer to exit matches in games. I dont know if it is software problems or hardware problems. I dont know if it occurs on other computers in the house, because nobody else watches livestreams or plays games (or anything else that needs a live connection at all times). Our tv has no problems, but it is connected via LAN, so I cant find out if it is the routers fault. Any suggestions? Ps. My computer is connected via wifi
