this 4K content that your are trying, is this being transcoded? if yes, your cpu usages is properly 100% and the CPU is can't handle transcoding 4K content which would be the reason...

Vinegar and hot water Will be the solution i Will be donig aswell... however What would you use for final rinse to get rid of the vinegar acid...? Watercooling cooliant? Regular tapwater or something Else?

Hey everyone! i’m in the need to perform a deepclean of my Custom loop. however it has some old parts from an AIO system and now the water needs to be replaced. i’ve heard/read before about going with hot water mixed with acetic acid and let it run, and redo this until the water is clear and the different parts are clean. however i’m unsure with the mixture. Should it be 50/50% and then over time lower the acetix acid to maybe 10/90 water?. also what should be used inbetween the cleaning process to clean out? Tap water or regular cooliant? if you have any methods or recommend Way to do this, then please let me know ?

Games is really the factor here.... high paced shooting games, requires/likes as low ping as possible.. >50ms i would look into changing servers to a closer destination... games like WOW, is not really affected as much as shooting games and you can have a very good gaming experience with 100-300ms. Chess and other really insanly slow placed games you can have even alot more.. Now one thing to note is also how the networking TCP stack was implemented into the game and how it handles the networking traffic.. bad implementation can suck even with low ping times 10-20ms... fast paced shooting games like: csgo, call of duty and such - <20 ms is very good, 20-35ms is normal/avage 35-50 is a bit higer than usual and could indicate you are on a server far away from your location. But still very playable. 50> try to change server to a better location. please also note that xDSL, cable, fiber and such can have a certain impact on your ping.... however it's not guaranteed... you can have fiber with shitty MS/ping times aswell as shitty xDSL but with far better ping/ms times than fiber.... but this is related to internet routing and is being handled by you ISP.. also the speed of your internet connection does not dictate your ms/ping times... like 10Mbit vs 1000Mbit... again related to internet routing like above...

This would not really affect boot times as the BIOS have serveral task's it REQUIRES to perform no matter what in order to detect ram, cpu, disks an so on to start up.... It might even take longer since it has to verify all the disks... what he should do is the synthetic benchmarks and real world task... etc install a huge 50-80Gb game or similar... to show of it's performance.

Hey LTT, So i'm on the lookout for a NAS/files share solution that can contain my media files - films and series and recorded TV shows for plex - I don't need any other fancy as far as i think.. I have looked at synology at the 12 BAY solution, that can be expanded to 36 drives if needed over time. However just the barebone 12 bay solution is roughly 3000 USD.... or 19.000 DKK ( I'm from Denmark ) then i have to factor in the cost of drives... I would properly go for 4TB disk's as 10-12TB disk's is damn expensive.. (530usd each.) Or would a custom solution with cpu,mobo, case with some alternative software like freenas be the best solution? My ideal solution is something like this... - Should be able to contain 12 disk's from start... regular case or specific nas system. - Storage pool would properly be something like 40-44TB, with raid 5 or 6.. havnt decided yet.. to begin with.,, - will properly be extended with either more drives or larger drives at a later point. - Able to handle 3-6 transcoding streams..

can you change MTU to 1500? That's standard ethernet packsize

FYI... Plex is broken with HDR content... and you propperly have to transcode the 4K content.. even though your new TV may support all 4k and hdr types.. like the new OLED tv's from LG... The issue is plex! - If so if you want to view 4K HEVC, HDR content... use DNLA to see media files... - And use it together with plex + your TV.. and don't have plex stream your content... otherwise your plex will transcode the content.. and btw a 8core/16threads ryzen cpu is having 100% CPU load when transcoding 4k HEVC, since it transcodes it to x264.. and i even get stutter... due to this kind of transcoding is INSANELY taxing on the CPU.. However as i said.. if you enable DNLA inside plex and browse your media files from your TV with DNLA, you will play the files directly and won't have the transcoding and HDR will work!

is this your primary gaming rig or is this a secondary pc build only for streaming?

quicksync is a joke in the terms of quality.... same goes with nvidia nvenc/shadowplay for live streaming... x264 beats all of these... yes the others are a good alternatives if you CPU is limited and you can use the igpu or nvidia hardware encoder.... but if you have the horsepower for x264 software i would ditch the others straight away...

well the ryzen have 8 cores vs intel 6 cores.. so you will be able to do higher bitrate with a lower preset on a ryzen CPU where the intel would be bottlenecked. I think gamer nexus already did a test like this that shows issues with the intel CPU in certain games.. however it really depends on 2 things.. 1. What are your streaming settings 2. what game are you playing

Does that mean we can maybe flash a threadripper into a 32core EPYC CPU or just get lucky and get a "EPYC" cpu shipped instead On a more serious note though... someone at AMD is properly getting fired for such a big mistake if this is a legit and not some fake news

Use freeware program "process lasso" to do this.

Distance has nothing to do with a stable connection or not. What it does affect is the performance(amount of mbit you can get based on your SNR level).. now yes distance affect it in a way that if you have a longer cable, you will get a reduced speed and you have to change your SNR levels to get a propper stable connection.. That's why i said that you can have a 4-8KM adsl line that's stable or a 300meter vdsl2 thats unstable... Yes the adsl line with get much lower speed at that distance, but can still be stable... and the vdsl can be configued to try and achieve a bigger speed than possible and hence have a unstable connection... that was the point i was trying to explain to him.. So if he can get 24mbit, with a stable connection - everything is good.

distance has nothing to do with it... its packet loss... ANY xDSL tech is affected by the distance.. SHDSL, VDSL, ADSL, ADLS2, you name it... packet loss is a indication if you have a stable connection or not.... you can have a 8km adsl line thats stable without any issues or have a 300meter vdsl2 with lots of packet loss.. So there is nothing wrong with adsl and the connection you mentioned... the difference between the different xDSL products is the speed you can get.. (yes they do have some minor difference between.. but not going to explain that part here) as long as your connection is stable.. your 24mbit is more than enough for gaming and even streaming movies

that is more than enough.. games normally only requires about 1-2mbit... it's very low amout of data being recieved... and the same goes with upload...

if you wanna play games on 3x monitors... you are required to run SLI... a single card will get killed with that setup...

what's your budget?

sounds like it's over heating... and shut down... to try let the computer be turned off for 15 mins.. turn up and see fi you can go into bios straight away... maybe you can verify that temp is going up fairly quickly.... or just check your CPU mount again...

will be RMAing with the store that i got my items from not with asus directly, if needed

i would try with a cable... JUST to be 100%... as i said i have seen same issues even though the wifi connection was great..

is the laptop via wifi or cable? even if you have stable connection with wifi... i have seen multiple times that cable is just alot more stable...

you really should use the build in function of t-sql with transaction and how to handle them instead of having C# do it. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/language-elements/transactions-transact-sql <---- read this and the few other pages(left side) on how to commit a transaction and perform rollback of these transactions.
