  1. omg I was able to come third last in the list! Feels pretty cool honestly. 476 is actually 100 higher then what I remembered my rank being before the final validation! It was really fun I will be back next year. With MORE POWAAAAR! Cheers ?
  2. Yeah I think I registered correctly in the morning for me. I filled in all questions in the link in the post ^^
  3. Phew! Thanks for easing my nerves. I signed up as soon as I saw it ^^
  4. omg I'm dumb and didn't realize that you had to sign up for the ltt giveaway until I read through the thread again... I suck at time zone conversions so I hope it's not to late. I'm in Sweden so by my calculations I think I'm in the clear. Can anyway confirm? Cause 4th of november just started in the USA right?
  5. Well... I might have completely screwed up and didn't realize I had to sign up for this giveaway specifically T_T. If the team is nice, I hope It's not to late and that I can be eligible anyway :) I just saw it this morning when I woke up in Sweden.
  6. Oh lordy! That's a lot of gpus! My client doesn't want to do any gpu WUs right now since it wants the pc to be idle. Can I change this?
  7. Can you fold on two computers at the same time? Using my laptop as a radiator for my room sounds in theory like a good idea. Sweden is getting cold now haha
  8. A question about the "20 days of having activity over the course of the whole month" requirement. I live with my family and I doubt they would want to hear the computer during the night. Does the requirement mean that you need 480 hours of activity or just being active some time during 20 of those days?
  9. I don't really know what specifik monitor to pick. But since you wanted a 27 inch I would recommend a IPS display because of its better viewing angles witch is good when we're talking about a monitor this big. If you play action games I would also recommend a panel that's 70 Hz. But that depends on witch games you play and how much graphics quality you want to sacrifice for smoothness. But if you have a 70 Hz monitor and a 1060 you would most likely always get those 70 Hz.
  10. Hi! A few days ago I bought myself an iphone x. I will probably use its camera a lot and I know that burn in can be an issue if the screen shows a static image for too long. If I use the camera app a lot some of the on-screen elements are static. Is it possible that those parts of the display could be burn-in while the rest is fine because they are moving with the camera?
  11. Hey guys! So I have a 750 ti but recently I've been thinking about upgrading so I can play the most recent games. But I thought I could overclock it to get a bit of extra life out of it. So I fired up Unigine Heaven. So I watched some youtube videos while it was running to see if it was stable without an overclock. But than I got this result. Overclocking it doesn't seem to make it that much worse however. Then I also tried the benchmark on my lenovo thinkpad workstation with a quadro M500M and got the same result. Any Ideas? BTW: The card is now 3 years old, but the workstation is only 8 months
  12. I don't know if this is the right sub forum, but since it's a mod for my own room I suppose it fits here. Hello! So I've been thinking about something lately: Could I use some RGB case fans to cool my room in the summer and also make it look dope? But how would I power the fans? I know you put the fans into a controller to change the RGB modes. But if it isn't in a computer case, where do I power the controller? Something that I also have been thinking about is putting an RGB/RGBW strip in the ceiling to give some nice lightning. But I run into the same question there, how do I control/power the strips?
  13. Personally I would choose the GTX 1060. There's a big performance difference from the 1050 ti to the 1060. The 1060 is around 60% faster than the 1050 ti.(at least from my source) The issue with VRAM may occur in the future. Many older cards have no problem with VRAM even though they only have 2 GB of it. VRAM won't give you any performance decrease until you run out of it and your FPS falls faster than a stone in water. If you want something in the middle you may want a RX470. The 1050 ti is only like 20% faster than the GTX950. What games are you playing? Some games need more VRAM than others. Especially if you like texture modding.
  14. Okey, I cleaned the vents and it got a little better. It still sounds a lot. But at least it doesn't sound all the way to my PC, thanks guys
  15. Sorry but I don't have any personal experience with buying audio cards. But maybe this thread can help you: I hope you will have a good experience with your new audio card
  16. I suppose I could try to update the BIOS. But I don't have a battery backup. So I'm scared that it might get interrupted while updating.
  17. Yes I have. To be fare I didn't do the cloning myself and gave the job to a computer store. They also noticed the problem but didn't know how to fix it. So first they tried to fix it. Then I tried to fix it. So yeah, the ports get transformed to SATA II for some reason. Could it have to do with that both SSDs are from Samsung?
  18. Hello! Long story short, I bought a new SSD because I wanted to store all my games on it. So I bought the new SSD and cloned the old one to the new one. That worked fine. However I noticed that both of the SSDs were running in SATA II speeds(much slower boot than before). When I looked at INTELs rapid storage technology it said both of the SSDs were connected to SATA II ports. Even though they clearly are SATA III ports(Since the old SSD was connected to that exact port). So now I've put in the old 255 GB SSD in my SATA II port instead. So now my new SSD and my storage drive is connected to the SATA III ports, now INTELs rapid storage technology detect that they indeed are SATA III ports as they should be. But now my old SSD is not running in it's optimal speeds. Does anyone know why this problem occurred. Is it my motherboads fault or is it something else? And in that case: can i fix it myself?
  19. Currently I have a geforce GTX 750 ti. The reason why I did like to upgrade is because than I can give my old card to my little cousin, so we can play other games than just minecraft on his 200 bucks & 3 year old laptop.
  20. If you know how to do it. You could try running another OS from a USB stick to see if it's a problem related to windows or not. If the audio works fine in Linux for example, then you should know that it is a windows related problem. If the audio still wouldn't work properly then you should know it's hardware related. If you don't want to try this I would totally understand you, since it can be a bit tricky
  21. To be fare, the only time "troubleshooting" with windows has ever worked for me was when my sisters laptop got the feeling to delete the start menu. Are you using the same cable for the new speakers as you did for the old ones? Also, is this a new problem or has it been there since you got your computer?
  22. If you built the computer yourself: did you download the right audio driver for your motherboard. Otherwise try find the stereo balance for your audio driver. If you're on windows 10(maybe 7 or 8 don't know). You can also try right clicking on your speaker icon and press troubleshoot.
