  1. If I enable CSM in the bios then I am able to read that the drive is there, however I cannot boot to it even when I set it to the priority drive, my computer asks me to insert bootable media.
  2. I manually installed windows 10 on the 980pro and was able to read the old windows install drive in windows, however when I attempted to clone it using AOMEI backup, it said I needed to restart my system so I click yes and nothing happens after that. I’m very confused as to what’s happening with my pc.
  3. I recently purchased a 2tb 980 pro for my pc. I know my processor and motherboard support it but when I put it in my system, not only does my pc not boot from the Sata SSD install of windows I have, but all of my drives vanish in the bios. I’m using an asus b550 gaming wifi mobo with a 5900x and drives in sata Ports 1-4 on the motherboard understanding that m.2 connections disable 5 and 6. Any help would be much appreciated, I’m hoping to clone my sata install over to the 980 pro. Thanks in advance!
  4. My parents and some close friends of mine also lost their homes in this exact same Fire... seeing this warms my heart... thank you Linus and Craft Computing for such an uplifting gesture to a member of my community :). On a different note, some friends and I did a similar thing for our friend who lost his home. All inspired by this video kindness is contagious when it’s from someone you look up to. Thanks again guys
  5. Though we did this back in mid September, LTT's recent video on getting a fire victim a new pc inspired me to share this with everyone This is the reddit post about it. WARNING there is some swearing kids.
  6. Server wise i have the fastest machine and most centralized and fastest internet for my friends and I run a multitude of servers whenever we want to game together. servers consist of minecraft (modded and vanilla), mordhau, and rust but I'd like to allow room for other games down the line as well. As for GPU I'm running a GTX 1080 currently. I also have 32 Gigs of 3400MHz ram in my system if that matters at all
  7. I've been trying to decide between a 10700k and a 3900x. not sure which one would yield better performance for gaming and streaming, or gaming and running a game server on the same rig. If anyone has any other ideas on an upgrade path let me know please , I will say i do game at 1440p if that changes anything
  8. Can someone tell me what the best WiFi extender would be fore the building I work in? The walls have metal in them and the WiFi we currently have only goes about 15 ft down the hall, it needs to go another 20 feet or so... Any help would be appreciated! :)
  9. Well damn that’s annoying, so just stick with the cable in the box if I can is what you’re saying?
  10. I just purchased an Elgato he 60s capture card and was wondering if I would benefit from using a type c to type c cable over the type c to type A that comes with the card, thanks!
  11. For some reason i’m unable to change my backlight on my tv, when I go into picture settings, backlight appears but when I go to select it the cursor just skips over it, there is also no slider bar underneath it anymore I used to be able to but I can’t anymore, it’s stuck very dim so this is very annoying to me. Any advice would be helpful model is TOSHIBA_43LF621U19 uploaded a video of the issue, I’ve tried resetting picture settings and going into advanced settings for this but nothing has fixed it so far, all I can think of is a factory reset but i’d rather not do that if possible CDC6D4A4-1093-406F-BD81-675AAC15A930.MOV
  12. 265W is definitely not enough for a 1050ti let alone any desktop (biggest money saving technique for manufactures is getting the lowest wattage power supply for the build possible). I'd go for at least a 500W power supply and recommend a 650W. EVGA tends to be 'the best' for Nvidia cards in my opinion, though you'd probably be okay with either not sure on the dimensions of the asus one anyway. And yes no external power will be needed for those cards though i'd recommend finding a card that needs external power for that motherboard. Shouldn't be any issues with adding the ram as long as there are slots available and it's clocked at the same speed!

    1440p

    You could probably watch videos at 1440p lol, I'f you're thinking of gaming though I'd be sure the monitor you're getting has really good upscaling because you'll be running most if not all your games at 1080p if you want to get 60fps
  15. Oof how did we both miss the fact that its an APU, also yeah if you don't play kingdom hearts you should be good, by the way be sure you're able to transfer your windows 10 key over to a different motherboard if you want to have it activated
