  1. Putting an engine in an apartment is not an option here. The idea with the two inputs was that when one UPS runs out, it fails over to the other psu that wasnt active before. Any way to switch between the UPS basically
  2. yeah, its just to extend the time, as to not loose any time at work when it happens. the 2200VA one i got atm only holds up for a few minutes, which isnt good enough. as i mentioned, a bigger battery would be 5x the price for 2x the capacity, which is a bad deal, not to mention those would be rack mounted ones. Basically just any way to get multiple inputs to the PSU is what was looking into, not the redundancy itself. As for the daisy chaining it seems to create a feedback loop that can damage them or just make them switch to battery mode constantly.
  3. So ive been looking at the UPS prizes, and theyre weird. For 1600-2200VA you pay around 300€, but once you check the 3000VA range it goes to like 1500€. You cant just chain the UPS due to some magical electricity shenanigans, so the best options seems to just get a redundant PSU to hook up two at once, as there are no non redundant ones with multiple inputs for using redundant circuits. This is the only one I was able to find, and its 700W 80+ Gold, for 460€. Is there any better ones out there that can go in a regular PC? Would a redundant PSUs logic even properly switch to the second one?
  4. I tried looking it up but nothing. Is there any way to get the senheiser headphones, but without the weird double sided cables? I was looking to see if anyone moded it to pass one cable to the other side to just have it hanging on one side instead of both. Sort of a bootleg way to make it like the K712
  5. right, but the policies are against vms, so a better way to have expressed it wouldve been like this on my end
  6. thank you for all the tips, guys. a vm wont work as i need the full power. Ill give it a try with the other suggestions once i get the new drive
  7. Ive tried googling it, but it just spams me with dual boot stuff, which isnt what i want. Im going to use my pc for work, so my plan was to get another drive and windows key to just boot into the one i need at that time. I dont want my "work pc" to use/see more than its one drive, nor the "gaming pc" to see the new drive. Would that be possible? The way I see it I would still have all drives show up on both windows installs, which would defeat the purpose of keeping them separate.
  8. so what you probably mean are these steps, but that only shows up when the gpu isnt installed. if i set them when not installed, save settings and reboot with gpu it doesnt keep it enabled.
  9. Hello. I just upgrade from an i7 8700k with Gygabite Z.370 HD3P to an i9 11900k with rog Z-590-F and have been trying to set up my system as before. Now previously I was running 6 monitors: 4 on the gpu and 2 on the iGPU. With the 11900k I cant seem to get it to work. The one thing I found that makes sense is to enable the iGPU in BIOS, but it didnt show up, so I used the workaround some described to disconnect the GPU, then boot into BIOS and select it. That worked as far as activating it, but once I reconnected the GPU it still only shows 4 monitors. Is there any other way to activate it, as that trick is the only one I found that everyone repeats.
  10. https://www.asus.com/us/support/FAQ/1044083/ this was the solution, CSM. all solutions i found searching for this mobo or other asus/rog ones, including the bios itself when starting up to a black screen with text, kept pointing towards onboard devices having an m.2 switch to enable, instead of this one...
  11. I have swapped it around to different m.2 slots and nothing. I tried putting the 960 Evo into m.2_1, m.2_2, m.2_3 and nothing on either attempt. It shows up in bios but not the boot stuff
  12. Here I added some pics as attachments showing the simple view to show the drives and boot, the onboard device page and the mvme page
  13. So I've tried googling but none of the answers seem to give any answers to what I'm looking at here. Im currently upgrading the rig from my signature to. A Z-590-F with 11900k, but I use a 960 Evo as windows drive. This board has 4 m.2 slots, and I added my 960 Evo in the first one. It shows up in the bios, but that's where it stops. It just keeps booting me into bios, with no boot options and I need to use the igpu output to see it. I've reread the manual, but it says nothing on how to get it to boot from the m.2 as far as the bios settings go. Would love some assistance on this
  14. so having heard they will run android apps, will we be able to connect a sim card to the pc and use stuff like Whatsapp properly? would be great for older people who refuse smartphones
  15. Ive been looking for a new controller for Rocket League, as I need some rear buttons. Right now im using a thrustmaster xbox 360 controller, which lacks these. I was looking at the Razer Wolverine Ultimate as it has all of the buttons and long stick options for "only" 120€. But then I keep reading you cant assign these to custom buttons, just rebind existing buttons on the controller, so unless thats fixed its useless. The xbox elite controller is 200€+ so they can keep those things. Is there any option to get a controller with back buttons thats decent quality and has real extra buttons? I also saw some addons you can attach to ps4 controllers but the complaints about them turning off all the time and the wierd ps layout made them a no go.
  16. I got a Plantronics rig 800HD, which is a wireless headset with a dongle. this dongle has a usb end hooked to my pc, but it also allows for a optical audio cable to be connected, which my pc doesnt have. is there any way to hook up my phone though dacs or something to it with the 3.5mm/bluetooth or something to deliver/recieve audio and mic to both the pc and phone (its a nokia 5)
  17. if they can make you pay 50k tuition and buy $200+ textbooks they can make you buy a smartphone lol
  18. interesting. shacking doesnt do anything, that was the second thing i tried after hitting it on the side, its somehow randomly works, so im guessing it might be more along heat expansion to mess with it then
  19. So i got a dead pixel column on my second monitor, but sometimes it goes away for a bit. any clues as to why it goes away from time to time? right now if i use discord and other stuff i just use that line as center seam for the two apps, but its a bit annoying when i put a video on fullscreen
  20. so my pc randomly turns on because of this. how do i stop it? Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18362.720] (c) 2019 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

  21. but blenders viewport only uses 1 card, it doesnt do SLI. or did things change that much from 2.78?
  22. sounds like what amd did back in the day with 2.0 to 3.0
  23. carry handles arent that important, its more about ruggedness. seems like many of the non small form factor cases arent even sold anymore cougar one seems interesting though
