  1. Hello, so i fried my cpu a while trying to hotswap a gpu (never doing that again...) and I've rebuilt my pc as cheap as i've possibly could. This has involved buying a 4th gen cpu (an I5-4570S) and a very, very, Chinese motherboard. The motherboard (JginYue 4th Gen) is not likely to cause problems, contrary to how it sounds. From what i've found from the chipset, its just a recycled iteration of old asus boards, using the same chipset as a H81 line MB. ((according to LSHW the model is H81M VH PLUS; you cant get any more obvious)) When i type in LSHW, the output is as follows (encase im missing something and you wanna check for me, but i've read it all.) https://pastebin.com/7yNCD6jS Thank you for your time....
  2. I was mixing a track when I passed out in my chair. And I woke up in the morning, sun blaring in my eyes, and I listen to the mix and see what I needed to undo. I noticed the strings that were tracked to be in my right ear were so low I could barely hear them, I crank them up like 10 db, notice its very distorted when the left channel was perfectly normal. Started testing stuff, plugged in my phone to the headphones worked fine. I unplugged my headphones and put them in my headphone amp, turns out the headphone amp is blown in THE EXACT SAME CHANNEL. I turn off my PC, I install Ascio again. I Uninstall High Definition audio and restart... nothing. I feed my interface and headphone amp together in a loop to confirm it isn't the headphones, the amps right channel is dead. I've tried essentially everything, and am started to think its my soundcard as its the same thing when i hear the boot sound... Thanks
  3. Im doing all this from my room, which has the router in it.
  4. I didn't change a thing, but now my wifi is at 300 MB/S over Ethernet, and 352 over wifi on my phone...
  5. Currently 4, 3 of which are phones/tablets, and 1 is my pc.
  6. Essentially I got a new router because of a cat ruining it. And ever since then i've gotten the most irritating internet in my life! Needless to say this is quite annoying. Is there anything i can do to fix it? My router is: Spectrum New Wave 2 (only service provider in the area, and i've obtained a level of hate for charter I cant achieve for even Hitler) And my Modem is: ARIS TM1602 EDIT: i test it now and its at 300 mb/s...
  7. For the pat 3 days ive had pretty bad gpu issues. Came to a head today, when i paused a video and my pc made a noise and crashed. Since then, when i turn my pc on it will sit on the splash screen. Help.
  8. Well, in the PassMark cpu benchmark, my cpu (Intel Core i5-4690) ranked 47 out of all CPUS, 2,214 out of the top ~2,600. I highly doubt thats the bottleneck http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:System_requirements#RAM "The most important thing to the performance of the game, however, is undoubtedly RAM latency—the amount of lag the RAM has when working. Dwarf Fortress works the RAM every single frame for every single creature, every single item, every single piece of liquid, the temperature of every tile—you get the picture. The gigantic amount of operations working at the same time—which any current processor could handle much faster than what you see—is primarily bottlenecked by RAM latency and RAM speed."
  9. 1. I knew CAS should be low 2. You dont know the game, it is not as simple as "its from 2006, should be easy to run" that is like saying "CRYSIS 3 IS FROM 2013, YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO RUN IT MAX SETTINGS ON 4K ON A LOW END 900 SERIES CARD" Its a very cpu and ram intensive game, and I know my example is very extreme, but its the same concept.
  10. Trying to figure out the bottleneck preventing me from having more then ~60 Dwarfs in dwarf fortress, without suffering FPS death. My cpu is a I5-4960, and ranks ~30th in single-threaded CPU performance I happen to figure, that my ram is the issue. As I have 8gbs of 1600mz DIMM ram... I need to know the bandwidth usage of a game as well as how often it misses cache. If it misses cache constantly I need to get a higher CAS ram; if it uses up the bandwith often I need a higher bandwith ram; and if It uses both, I need to save up money to get some good ram.
  11. There is a very good direction option, it will not pick up your keyboard if you dont have the gain very high.
  12. Get a blue yet, it works wonders. 100$ With enough tweaking, it'll only get your voice.
  13. First 2 photos look like they where taken on a potato, my apologies.
