My friend is having a strange issue with his PC that we cannot seem to figure out. Whenever he launches The Division 2, Battlefield 4, or Battlefront, his screen turns off and his monitor says "Invalid Input". However, all his other games work just fine. When he shares his screen on discord we can see his game just fine, however his monitor shuts off. Any ideas? The only thing I can think of is using DDU, but any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Specs:

i9 9900k

2080ti

Asus Mobo (Not sure about the model, I can ask if needed)

16GB DDR4 Memory

Thanks!

What bed do you print on? I got my printer with the glass bed and havent tried printing without it.

I have the Creality Glass Bed that comes standard with the Ender 3 V2.

Here are some old pictures I found of the issue, I believe its the same as yours:

But yeah, cleaning and releveling has worked the best

This is very similar to the issue I have with my Ender 3 V2. It doesn't happen too often, but it does happen. I usually clean the bed with rubbing alcohol and relevel the bed and it usually goes away. Don't quote me though, this is just from my personal experience with the Ender 3 for the few months I've had it. 

Hello,

I am looking at upgrading my 1080p 144hz to a LG 27GL850-B 1440p 144hz gaming monitor, but I'm wondering if its enough of an upgrade to be worth it. I currently have a 5600x and a GTX 1070, but I'm looking at purchasing a 3070 once available. Would the RTX 3070 be capable of 1440p gaming @ 144Hz?  I typically play Minecraft, Valorant, CSGO, etc and prefer frame rate over quality.

Any other suggestions for a monitor would be great. My budget is under $400 USD.

Thanks! 

I'm looking for a good air cooler for the Ryzen 5600x. I'm looking for something quiet and has enough performance for some slight overclocking. I currently have the Vengeance RGB Pro memory with about 51mm of clearance. I'm looking for something under the $80 range.

Thanks!

do you play at high frame rates (100fps+, especially when going beyond 200)? If you do then it could be noticeable.

Yes, I have a 1080p 144Hz monitor. I typically play more FPS games such as CS:GO, Valorant, etc. I typically also prefer high frame rates over quality

3200MHz is just enough, the 5000 series Ryzen CPUs do perform better with 4 sticks of RAM tho, but that's only if you're going for like 64GB of RAM because who would want 4 sticks of 4GB RAM? 

But, yeah 3200MHz is enough for the new Ryzen CPUs

 

Cool, then I'll probably stick with the 3200MHz sticks then. I am planning on potentially getting the same 8 x 2 kit in the future

So I recently purchased a 5600x CPU along with Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB Memory (DDR4-3200 CL16). I'm now wondering if I made a mistake with my memory choice. Is there a noticeable difference between 3200MHz and 3600MHz Memory? This is assuming they have the same CAS Latency. Should I return my memory and purchase the 3600MHz? 

Thanks!

Hm, you could do that, or maybe you could go for something like a B550 Aorus Pro AC? Or a Strix B550-F WIFI, though that tends to be quite overpriced, from what I've seen.

I looked at the Strix B550-F Wifi, but it is a bit pricey for what it is. The B550 Aorus Pro AC looks nice and has 10 USB Ports and is $170. How is the VRM/Overall quality of that board? 

Otherwise my next choice is going to be the MSI Gaming Carbon, but still a bit pricey for just 2 USB ports

@MateyyyCool thanks. I was stuck between the MSI Gaming Edge vs the Carbon. The only major difference is 2 less USB ports. The carbon has the perfect amount of USB ports I need, but at a $40 price increase. Would it be bad to buy a separate USB hub to plug in my microphone and webcam?

Budget (including currency): $1400 - $1500 USD

Country: United States

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: I will mostly be using this computer for games such as GTA V, Watch Dogs Legion, Minecraft, and Cyberpunk. I will also be doing some CAD modeling (as a hobby), programming and web browsing. 

One requirement for the motherboard is WiFi. I am undecided whether or not I should just get a WiFi adapter later or try to get it integrated on the motherboard 

Here is what I currently have put together. I already ordered the RAM, Case, and SSD. I'm just having troubles deciding on a motherboard and power supply.

Edit: I'm also planning on getting an aftermarket cooler in the future (sub $100) , so any suggestions would be great.

Any msi b550 board or any decent b550 board will be great for overclocking. Mayby msi b550 pro vsh wifi, mortar wifi or gaming edge wifi.

 

Also meshify X and samsung evo plus are odd choices. there are better products.

I am up for suggestions if you have any alternatives to these. I don't necessarily have a set budget, but I'm looking to stay in the $1300-$1500 range. Overall, I was planning on pairing a 5600x + 3070

I am planning to upgrade my current rig and switch over to a either a 5600x or 5800x (depending on availability). I have my other parts picked out, but I'm still looking for a good motherboard and a cooler. I'd like to stay under $200 for the motherboard and under $100 for the cooler. I am also planning on overclocking, but nothing extreme. 

Here are a few requirements for the motherboard:

1. ATX

2. Wifi - I'm not sure if I'd be better off getting a mobo with integrated wifi or getting a USB adapter in the future. Only reason I need this is for college

3. Ability to overclock (Nothing extreme)

Here are the parts I currently have:

1. Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro

2. Meshify C ATX Case

3. 1TB Samsung 970 Evo SSD

Thanks! 

Thanks for the help. I'll let him know 

When would be the best time to build? I haven't followed much on the Ryzen 4000/B550 and Nvidia Ampere. 

Yeah that's kinda what I was thinking also. He wanted to build it now, but I'll see what he thinks. 

Budget (including currency): $1400

Country: United States

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Fortnite, Call of Duty, Minecraft, etc. 

Other details: Putting a list together for a friend. The computer will just be used for general gaming/some slight productivity work (maybe some CAD) . PC Only -- No peripherals

This is not necessarily YouTube's fault. Just clear your cache/browsing data for youtube. 

I got my MSI GS60 laptop from there. Never had a problem, and it was delivered on time. Can't say about any of their custom/prebuilt computers though, because they are just another vendor that sells MSI laptops.

Pygame might work. It’s an API for python. 

 

This reminds me. Kivy is a great framework for developing cross-platform applications in python. It also allows easy access to Android API.

Should I go with the 2060 or 1660ti? Rest of the specs are same in both. 

The RTX 2060 is a bit better, but it depends on whether or not you would want to save money. 

I've also been having the same problems lately where nothing renders properly on that game. However, it goes away after a couple of matches.

I also have a 6600k, but with a 1070. 

This is very interesting. I have the same CPU and an Asus Z170-A motherboard and sleep mode causes this same problem for me. I had to turn off my PSU for a while and eventually it worked by self.

I would assume the core i5 lol. Depends on the use case I guess.

I would focus on learning the fundamentals of programming. Keep researching and learning new information and technologies. Take as many opportunities as possible to learn such as any AP/Computer Science classes your school offers.  

The other stuff comes such as pay comes later down the road. Just do what you want to do.
