  1. Whenever you have weird software issues, my first suggestion is to use DDU to uninstall your drivers. https://www.wagnardsoft.com/display-driver-uninstaller-DDU- (DDU is really good at getting remnants of drivers that default uninstallers don't get) then reboot and do a fresh drivers install
  2. Whenever I see thermalright my brain auto changes it to thermaltake and there's a big difference, thermaltakes stuff in general kinda sucks and thermalright is generally pretty good
  3. I don't trust GeForce experience, GPU-Z is my preferred utility for monitoring GPUs
  4. LTX was like 20 miles from the US border and I had absolutely no issue getting my mid tower PC across the border
  5. The least expensive one that is kind of from a name brand and decent would be a behringer um2 https://www.sweetwater.com/c695--Interface_USB
  6. Im just wondering how bundling of shipping is going to work for people here in North America. I made one order that said it would be shipped by the 9th of December and another one today that just says "later" Are they all going to be bundled for the first order or for the last order that we make which could be rough if I was looking to have some of this for Christmas. I understand y'all have a lot of orders to send out, just wondering how it's gonna work
  7. Only place that would even vaguely make sense is Seattle since it's only about 2 hours away because then you don't have to fly people far away. But at that point you should just do it in Vancouver
  8. Yeah, um no this is absolutely a terrible idea, first of all good luck actually compelling LTT to reveal who they sold it to through a court order, then it's also more than likely an international case which becomes hideously expensive. And there is basically no way you could actually force the buyer to give it back because generally consumer laws protect the buyer if they were buying it in good faith that it had been properly acquired by the seller which is 100% the case here, The only thing is hopefully the person who bought it is a cool person and will return it
  9. Yep, I just bought a tool cart from Harbor freight on their black friday sale, the cart itself weighs over 130 lbs and the box was probably 2.5 feet wide, over 2 feet tall, and 3 ft deep. that would be expensive as hell to ship.
  10. I can't even use it to get lugnuts off which are one of the most common things the average person might be removing on their car.
  11. I mean, they are,$1500 different in price, for what I do, there isn't enough of a difference between a 5800x and a 5900x and a 3060 ti vs 3080 as I game at 1440p primarily so I'd personally go 3060 ti
  12. 2023 is when TSMCs new fab in Arizona is supposed to open and 2024 for Samsung, then those chips need to make it through the supply chain from board partners like MSI and EVGA. so I think mid-late 2024. I remember when they said this would be resolved by the beginning of 2021 Lol
  13. Pcie risers like those used for GPU mining, they generally have screw holes in them so you could screw it to the shelf Something like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08NPV3K5N/
  14. The 3050 and ti already exist in laptops and I'm pretty sure they are 8 nm plus moving a GPU to a new manufacturing node is not that easy, especially when TSMC already has 12 nm capacity up and running and there is a better chance that they could get capacity on an older node than a bleeding edge new one like 5 or 7 nm
  15. This was my first thought? How do you get your math off by a factor of 200
  16. Granted this is my personal experience but I had an HP envy FROM Costco that I bought in 2016 and it proceeded to shit the bed after a year, it would blue screen all the time and eventually the DAC broke so the sound was really cracklely, I ended up buying a Dell G5 about a year ago, and so far it's been great
  17. Voltage within the battery is going to vary by over a volt just between full and empty so it's probably just fine On my drone battery, it's at like 12.6 volts fully charged and at about 10.5 when it's empty
  18. Yeah, 4 gigs is really basically unusable in my experience, with all the programs I have running in the background of my PC, I'm generally at 4-6 gigs without doing anything, 8 is going to help a lot
  19. It could be a hardware issue with your board, my last laptop had an issue like that that started happening of course right outside the warrenty period so I couldn't RMA it, but you may need a new board, find a cheap USB to audio jack adaptor and see if that fixes the issue
  20. I would stick in a proper pcie wifi card, usb wifi cards are pretty terrible compared to pcie ones, I had this one (http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GC-WB867D-I-Bluetooth-Adapter-Computer/dp/B00HF8K0O6/ref=sr_1_9?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1465191814&sr=1-9&keywords=wifi+card) in my computer and it was pretty good. If you want to let him use your internet, you are probably going to need something like this and that is if you have a line of sight between your two places. If he would use an open network, I would suggest buying a vpn and running all of his traffic through that, (I use private internet access and I really like it.)
  21. my wifi is kind of weird in my house, I can in one place of the house, get 18 mbps down on wifi (on our 15/1 plan), I move 3 feet further from the router, and suddenly I only get 3 mbps down and youtube wont even play without buffering. if I had powerline in that part of the house, I would be totally fine, but I don't
  22. my first thing whenever someone is having an issue with android is to try to reset the cache (I'm not talking about the cache in storage settings, but the cache that you delete through the bootloader) often you may just have something that is corrupted in the OS and resetting the cache fixes that issue.
  23. Assuming you are US, here is my build, assuming you are comfortable doing a bit of overclocking, an FX-6300 can be fine for gaming and editng http://pcpartpicker.com/p/d3zxFd PCPartPicker part list: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/d3zxFd Price breakdown by merchant: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/d3zxFd/by_merchant/ CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor ($94.99 @ Amazon) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($24.89 @ OutletPC) Motherboard: MSI 970 GAMING ATX AM3+ Motherboard ($82.98 @ Newegg) Memory: Mushkin ECO2 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($48.99 @ Newegg) Storage: Sandisk SSD PLUS 480GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($93.79 @ Amazon) Video Card: PowerColor Radeon R9 380 4GB PCS+ Video Card ($173.98 @ Newegg) Case: NZXT Source 210 (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case ($36.99 @ SuperBiiz) Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($70.98 @ Newegg) Total: $627.59 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2016-06-01 01:53 EDT-0400
