  1. No i have not installed this yet, where can i find this? i tried searching online and there are no installers to be found Sorry for not replying faster.
  2. Hi, it's been a long time since epicgames launcher has been reportedly using abnormal amounts of CPU usage. They said the have issued a quick fix for this, but i am still getting spikes from 45-85% CPU usage for just opening the launcher. Have you guys fix yours? NOTE: launcher is up to date, tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Photo below to see abnormal usage compared to other game launchers
  3. Hi, i'm trying to make my own usb killer from scratch. For research purposes Thinking of buying the electronics used instead of destroying things(cause i have no things) Thank you!!!
  4. You can watch this youtube video as a reference on how to copy your WINDOWS install to a new storage drive. i have done this with my sata ssd to nvme and it worked with no problems. GLHF
  5. Good day, i have a problem that i can't identify and solve by myself. Windows build 19041.508 My Windows Security setting shows that the Virus and threat protection setting/tab says "no action needed" (screensnip A), but when i click manage settings all the toggle buttons are disabled and off(screensnip B) What and how can i do to fix this windows issue? Thank you! Note: i have no anti-virus software installed
  6. it has casting from android to TV but not windows to TV I'll just say, my country will mark-this-thing-up like hell. RTX 3070 was mark-up to 45% ugh
  7. Maybe that's it. but the TV does not support any casting from windows
  8. Not sure tbh. As long as i can cast my windows media to the TV Can't return the tv. In my country the word "REFUND" and "EXCHANGE" does not exist.
  9. Sadly no. The only device we have is our previous TV but it died(it had a good run)
  10. Hi, I'm trying to cast my windows media (mp4/mp3 etc.) to our TV. To my surprise and disappointment it does not support the DLNA (picture below for reference) Now I am looking for a dongle or something that i can put into the TV, any suggestions? Thinking about a chrome cast but not sure if it supports DLNA or windows to tv casting PS: Media streaming option is turned ON in windows
  11. Tuf series was bad? Lol. the steel legend was in the option due to it having rgb(for the kid) I'm actually using an msi b450 board for my personal rig(why didn't i think of that, duh) As for the used gpu market, i will consult with my cousins dad(he's the one buying/paying for the parts) getting a cheap deal but with no product warranties might be a pretty hard sell What brand name are the psu you're talking about? The case, so the advertisment lied to me. The description/info stated that there were 3rgb fans included in the package
  12. Budget (including currency): $600 Country: SEA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Minecraft, fall guys, mostly light games Other detailsdetail: Cpu: r3 3100, r3 3300x, or r5 3400G Mobo: asus b450 tuf or asrock b450 steel legend Ram: hypex fury rgb 16gb (2×8gb) 3200mhz Gpu: rx 580 4or8gbor gtx 1660 Storage: 250gb or 500gb nvme from crucial and 1tb hdd Psu: 500w-650w Case: tecware forge M Reasoning: future usability and compatibility for each parts Cpu: 3100 for the cheapest one of the bunch 3300x availability is slim to none(but the performance you get is just to good for it not to be in the list) 3400G i think it can handle light gaming and it has more threads than the 3200G(should we go for 3200G?) Mobo: mATX size. Leaning towards asus but he's a lil kid and likes shiny rgb Ram: shiny rgb(meh) Gpu: not really sure on what to do here. If we get an APU we won't need a gpu. We could just wait and upgrade in the future(i think) Storage: 500gb($65-80) nvme is over kill, right? Psu: any suggestions? Case: it has free 3rgb fans Any suggestions on how to maximize the budget? I really want to add a gpu at least a 4gb one that will last and will handle modern titles(he might unlock the pc master race inside him) at mid to low settings or just get the apu and wait to have more budget to add a higher gpu? This is confusing (brain go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr)
  13. SSD: Would rather get an m.2 NVME than a m.2 sata drive(prices are not the far apart). I think crucial would be a good balance of speed and price Add-ins: Do you really need an optical drive? Over-all good build
  14. What I have done so far: Potato pc: installed rtx2070, everything worked fine. New system: installed gtx1050, works like a dead horse Friends system: have not tried my gtx1050 Friends system specs: same as my new system just with a r7 3700x My gpu can still output a display but it can't run any 3D type of program/software
  15. How can that be? What are the causes? I have look in the pcb and nothing was burned or wrong with it(physically).
  16. Cinebench r15 opengl and Heaven 1. Potato pc: runs with no problem 2. Potato pc after experiencing fragmentation: does not work. The second it load/runs the benchmark it automatically closes the program(please see video above to get a clearer idea) 3. New pc: same problem as #2 Dunno if this helps, but it can run furmark(the fuzzy donut of doom)
  17. Yes, i thought it would fix the problem but apparently not. I am also experiencing blue screens before and after the reinstallation
  18. Hi there, Games usually played: Dota2, Paladins, CS:GO, Team fortress. Potato pc specs: AMD a4-5300, 8gb ram 1333mhz, gtx 1050. Games above used to run on the potato pc(not great but acceptable). Weeks ago it keeps fragmenting leaning to eaither a crashing, not responding, will open then immediately close the program. I just thought that the games just got more demanding for the poor cpu. (This are all base on the time i tried and run a game) I monitored the cpu and gpu for any abnormalities, cpu will always cap at 100%(normal for me) Gpu usage: 52% Gpu temp: 42c Clocks: 1405mhz(max clock in my model) Bus usage: 2% Memory usage: 482mb It will spick up its max clocks just to open the game. My concern in it kills the program to save itself from damage Now i upgraded the system but still keeping the gpu New system specs: r5 2600, 16gb running 3333mhz(3600mhz labeled in package), GTX 1050 It still cant run the games. What could have happened and are there any fixes for this? Ps. When i tried a RTX2070 in the same potato pc the games work and not defragment leading to a crash Ps. Nvidia driver used was version 452.06, windows version 19041 Video of the problem VID_20200902_182903~3.mp4
  19. Hello there, Scenario i a'm in right now: Acer laptop (win10) while trying to reset(using windows built in feature) the one that asks you to choose between keep files or clean install Windows run in to a problem in the middle of the reset process Now it's stuck in a boot loop. Feels like the os was corrupted during the process due to issues encountered. What i want to do now: Using Microsoft Media tool to create a win10 bootable flash drive and clean format the laptop(done creating the bootable) How do i keep my license in the event of using this process? Someone from the forum told me it should automatically pick up the license in the UEFI. The thing I'm getting concerned is the format screen shows before it asks me for the license I know the process of installing windows is format drive-> choose drive-> wait to finish-> proceeds to windows-> ask license-> finishing up install. (Base on my experience in formating my desktop Thanks for the help!
  20. The downside would be the conflict of wrong drivers with your new hardware
  21. Well, this is concerning Here are some photos of the screen that i'm working on after booting to the bootable drive Please don't judge my 32gb STORAGE notebook(i was a gift) I landed on this screen. when i choose the first option the image below will be shown Seems like i need to boot to windows in order to do this. *stuck in a boot loop intensifies* This is what i got in the second option As you said above I am pretty sure the license key screen is later after formatting and installing windows
