Qtip1318

my kids are not aloud on the internet at all and can only play on the computer with me. We play games like Stardew valley and terraria right now. I really only let them play games if they are playing together

500 ish canada pc 8150 gtx 770 16gb ram 12tbs of hdd and 256gb ssd 650watt sfx power supply I have 2 extra cases 1 extra power supply 550w it’s in my main rig right now because my 860w just died two days ago but I will be replacing that at some point. I have extra HDDs I don’t think I can get that much for my old system In my area. I found a i5 9400 system with 16gb ram gtx 1650 and 250gb ssd for 600. Only reason I’m not a big fan of it is because it’s A Asus prebuilt system.

So I’m kinda lost right now on whats a better idea. I have 2 girls right now who are wanting to play computer games one is 6 and the other 9. But only have two computers one is a really old fx8150 with a gtx 770 that I have been using as a server but it works for the games they are playing right now but I don’t think for much longer. The other is my main system with a 3900x and a 3060ti. what I am think of doing is doing a small up grade to a 5600 or 5600x in my system and then buy a new motherboard and ram for my old 3900x and giving that for my oldest. And then giving my youngest the fx8150 system. Tell a make a new pc in a year or two or do I just find a cheap used computer for about 500-600 with ryzen 3000 or intel 9th gen in it I do have an everything else I would need to make this work.

Will have 2 GPUs make my fps lower in game then if I only have one?

windows only lets you use 4 screens on one gpu no matter how many ports you have

I dont have an iGPU so i have to use a different gpu my dad has an old 960 at home that i was planing on using i just want it for have web pages and discord up i have been using 3 screen on my main gaming pc for over 8 years now and i cant go down to just one. i also know if i dont find a way to get this to work i wont ever use my simrig because it will be to much to set it up just to take it down the next day.

I’m a sim racer and a hardcore fps gamer and I’m trying to figure out the best way to set up my set up. Would it work for me to put my 3 screens on my sim rig and my one main screen on my gaming pc on one gpu and use a second gpu to see discord and what one on 2 different screens.

sorry i was not trying to be mean i did have a question in what i posted so i thought it was clear i will do a better job of explain my self next time i do appreciate the help. i forget that people who post questions often dont know anything they about computer. i am not one of those people I

I tested on my pc my server my ps4 and xbox one s all with ethernet cable i have tested 3 different cable... i know your trying to help but i have done everything. forms are my last resort I am trying to see if I can force my ISP to check and maybe fix fiber lines because at this point that the only thing i can see that will fix it

sorry lol ethernet

using ethernet

So i just got a 1gb fiber connection to my house and im having some problems when i play games i get 3-10% packet loss i have had everything in my house replaced all ready and I just want to know if it is possible to lose packets at fiber connections. I ask this because i have been to other house in my city and they connect to the same main server as i do and they have no problems with packet loss I am trying to get figure this out because the other option has really bad upload and i dont want to switch back. (I have done everything on my end)

i just got some new hard where are i want to turn my old hardware in to a FreeNAS system with PLEX on it i just want to know if there is any way to move the loaded HDD's from my Windows PC to the freeNAS system with out loosing the data on them

I just built a new computer not that long ago now I am working on building a desk for that computer I have everything I want to do in mind already I just need to find some parts hope that some of you might know where to find them. I am looking to have ports on my desk for USB HDMI display port as well as head phone and mic so that I don’t have to have wires running all over the place. I don’t know where to find any of this stuff if any one could help that would be great

I don’t think there are really any in stock anywhere I preordered mine and I still don’t have it I am in Canada

How important is memory timings is 16-18-18-38 good?

I’m looking at a new build for gaming/plex server and I am look at what ram I should get there are to kits that I have my eyes on right now don’t know what is better 2x16 g-skill trident z 3200mhz or 4x8 g-skill trident z. I like the idea of having all 4 dims full but I don’t know if that will come at a cost I don’t think I will ever upgrade to 64gb. Maybe on a new build with ddr5 when it comes out

Thanks for the help I found a way to leave my isp

no i don't thats the problem i have pinged lots of servers and have no problems on any of them and I don't know the IP's of the servers and things I'm having problems with like prime video and pubg.

I have been having trouble with my Internet and I know it is something on my IPS's end but I don't know how to find ways to prove it to them. My problem all started with packet loss when was playing games (Speed 300/300 wired) and from there I just kept finding more things to go wrong. These are the things I have problems with COD Black: Ops 4 5-9% packet lost PUBG: 2-6% packet lost Overwatch: packet lost Apex: packet lost (I would guess there are more but i have not tried more tell i get a new PC) I also can't get on Prime Video and Can not get to iCloud to sync my music I have tested everything using my Phones internet and it all works. Is there anyway of finding out ip's or something to line trace these places or is there anyway to find the problem. My ISP says everything is working good. other people with the same ISP don't have any problems. And I can't just change ISP Because I have a Cell Phone plan with unlimited internet that is linked with my home internet and if i changed it my bill would go up $160 because i use 20gb+

i am wired i have bell fiber my dad is on the same isp with 25/2 same network gear and no problems we live about 5 mins away from each other

can someone please tell me what might be going on im so lost and i have done everything i can think of. i have 300/300 speed for my internet and when i play blackops 4 i get 6-10% packet lost and cant joing blackout at all when i play pubg i get 3-8% packet lost on the download side when i do ping test on my computer to google and lots of other servers i have no problem i dont know what i should or can do any more. what i have dose is my ISP has replaced all hardware in my network, i have reinstall the os and games that i am having problems with. i port forwarded everything that need to be i also tested it in dmz mode. and I contacted activation about 1 month ago about it. i am really lost and dont know what to do

Maybe I will not go with POE i don’t need it just yet but the qos would be nice. The 300 mark is just to high plus I’m from Canada do that is over 400

I am working on my network and I am looking for the best budget option to fit my needs my problem is I don’t know what gear to get. I have 19 Connections in my house and I’m looking for a switch that will allow me to I have POE and QoS as well it would be nice to put it in a rack all tho I would like one I can put a 2u server case in for a future media server. I would really appreciate any help and info you guys could give me
