  1. I'm looking for a 3d printer for around 1000€, but the problem is that I'm not sure if I should be looking to get a larger printer to print my stuff in one piece, or to get a smaller one and print out the bigger things I need in more pieces and then connect them. Since I plan on printing both small and big things I'm scared that if I get a larger printer and then print smaller things on it is gonna effect the quality of the smaller thing and vice versa. The printing size of an larger printer should be at least 50cm x 50cm, and for a smaller printer idm as long as it's not too small, the height doesn't matter to me that much on either. The stuff I plan on printing the most are parts that I'll can use in my hobbies, as well as decorations for my room and such, but I'd also want to be able to print out like a custom keyboard case and keys if possible.
  2. The original antenna cable broke and after trying to solder it back together I started experiencing worse signal. Am I able to use different antenna models on my current wifi card inside my laptop since I'm not able to find the exact model of antenna for my wifi card?
  3. The controller doesn't charge at all, if I keep it on the charger I'm able to turn it on and use it fine but it turns off after like 5 minutes or so and then I'd have to reconnect the charger and turn the controller on again, I tried using a different charger as well. I tried opening it and putting in a full battery as well as replacing the charging board but neither seemed to fix anything at all. I don't remember when or why this started to happen.
  4. There don't seem to be any debug lights or post codes, yeah I plugged the cable into the gpu
  5. Hello! So I built a new pc today and when I tried to boot it I got no signal on my monitor. All the fans would spin, the LEDs on the case and the watercooler would turn on, even the lights on the plugged in keyboard turn on. I triple checked all the cables connected to the motherboard and they all seem fine, my psu is a modular one so maybe one of the cables isn't plugged in right? I don't think this is the case tho I'm still waiting for my gpu to arrive so I can fully complete the build, but I used my old rx 580 just to see if everything else works properly. I tried resetting the CMOS, using only one stick of ram, using other ram slots, using different PCIe slots... Specs: B550 Aorus elite v2, Ryzen 5 5600x, Trident Z 3600mhz 2x8gb, NZXT Kraken x62, Corsair RM750, Samsung evo 900 1tb, rx 580 Edit: forgot to add the cpu to the specs
  6. Hello! So this morning I got a 3 short beep error code, so I tried reseating the ram as well as using other ram slots and then I started getting a one long beep error code. After restarting my pc once more I stopped getting error codes but my pc wouldn't post at all. All of the fans are also spinning normally
  7. Hello! I was just wondering, since I do have the option to buy a couple of used rtx 3060s at an actually decent price, and I wouldn't have to fear much about losing money since I can always resell the gpus. I just thought that it'd be a cool project to do, and maybe even turn out to be some kind of passive income, so I'm just asking on the internet if the potential headache is worth at all.
  8. I recently bought a Lenovo 50-45 for spare parts, but if its possible to still repair this laptop then I'm going to try it. When I plug the ac adapter into the laptop the small LED lights light up, and when I press the power button I can hear the CD drive spin for a second but after that nothing else happens, the screens stays completely black. The seller claimed that there's a high chance that the bios is corrupted, but couldn't I just reinstall the bios if that was really the case? I also tried connecting the laptop to an external monitor but I got "No signal".
  9. Hello! So I've had my rx 580 for around 3 years now and I really want to upgrade. I was looking at used rtx 2060 and they go for 400-500 euro on ebay.de and I'm not really sure if that's a good deal or not anymore, I haven't really been keeping up with gpu prices and such recently at all. So I wanna know if I should hold out for a couple more months or just go ahead and buy on buying the cheapest 2060 I can find. I plan on playing apex legends at 144fps (probably at 1080p, but still not 100% sure yet since people have been saying that 1080p is basically outdated now) as well as other fps games.
  10. When I try installing win 7 32 bit this would pop up on the screen like this: File: NETIO.SYS Status: 0xc0000098 Info: Windows failed to load because a required file is missing or corrupt. I tried using different win 7 iso images I found online but I would just get the same problem. Neither the usb or the windows files are broken or corrupt, I tested this by installing win 7 on another 32 bit device and it all went smoothly. I've also tried installing win xp, and the installer would actually boot up but during the installation a lot of different files couldn't install properly, so when the installation was finished and I tried rebooting the laptop I'd just get a bunch of error messages for missing files.
  11. Already tried both, the drive is 100% working, I even tried another drive just to be sure and I go the same result
  12. Hello! My acer aspire 5810TG isn't able to find any bootable devices. The HDD wouldn't show up in as a connected drive in bios or when I try and install windows it wouldn't show up at all. If I try connecting a drive using USB it shows up in bios. I've already disassembled the whole laptop and the board with the sata cable looks fine to me, I also tried cleaning the cable using rubbing alcohol and tried resetting CMOS but neither worked. What else should I try before I order and replace that part of the laptop?
  13. I want to install windows 7 on one of my older laptops since it can't actually run Windows 10. Also, do I also have to have the drivers for the laptop? I remember a while ago a friend wasn't able to install a fresh copy of windows at all on a new ssd so he had to copy over everything from the old hdd for it to work but I'm not sure if that was just because of the drivers.
  14. ok so today it's working like normal again?? Not sure why I didn't really do anything new or anything. Gpu usage is normal now, same with game fps and no more flickering
  15. my temps sit around 60-70 C basically the whole time
  16. Hello! I started experiencing some problems with my gpu (Rx 580) a few days ago. Whenever I have my game open on my screen my gpu usage would go to 100%, and when it reaches 100% the whole screen would flicker once which would cause a lagspike in game, than the gpu usage will go down for a few seconds and the same thing would just repeat. But if I simply minimize the game or tab out of it my gpu usage instantly drops. On games like roblox, minecraft, r6s, valorant... a flicker would happen every ~10-30 seconds, but on games like apex legends my screen would just be constantly flickering when I join an actual game, not as much in the main lobby though. Here is a picture of my gpu usage on minecraft: (it's at 100% while I have the game open, and then I minimize the game and the gpu usage drops to 20%, than I go back into the game and than finally close the game) I've tried updating my drivers, reinstalling the games, changing my screen Hz, changing screen resolution, closing msi afterburner... Edit: ok so the flickering doesn't happen only when the gpu usage is at 100%, it happens when the gpu usage is like above 90%
  17. So I replaced my laptops SSD and it just gets stuck in a boot loop. It'll show the HP logo after turning it on and after a bit it would shut down and restart. I tried downloading windows on it with an USB by changing the boot options and load sequence but nothing would happen. I put in my old SSD in there now and it booted up normally.
  18. Alright, thanks than. I'll be getting those!
  19. Hello! I'm looking for a headset ~100 euro, I'll use it primarily for gaming but also for a bit of music listening. Still not sure if I want to go usb or stereo, since with stereo I'll have to also buy a dac because my onboard audio isn't the best and there is a bit of noise, but I've also heard that stereo headsets with Dolby Atmos provide the best surround sound.
  20. Hello! I was thinking of buying a new PC next month. I was going to buy a rtx 2070, a b450 Mobo and r5 3600, but I've heard that ryzen 4th gen, b550 boards and rtx 3000s are coming out this year so I'm not sure if I should just buy the parts next month or keep waiting till the release of new hardware so the prices drop. Also, will the new 3000s have better ray tracing performance than the current rtx cards? Because if they will I'll look into a 3000 instead of a 2070.
  21. I've had it for around 1 year now, the sensor is clean, polling rate is at 1000.
  22. Hello! I have the logitech g403 prodigy and when I move it fast it just just stops for a bit and than goes back to working properly, I play on a microfibre mousepad. I've always had this problem but it seems like it has become worse now. I play on 600 dpi, increasing the dpi would definitely throw off my aim so I'm asking here before I do that. I've tried reinstalling logitech g hub. Here's a video of me showcasing the problem (note: the movements of my hand were just fast and smooth across my whole 1m mousepad, but in the video you could see stopping):
  23. Hello! I'm looking for a mechanical keyboard for around 90 euro. I've only tried red and blue switches and I like the blues better, I have big and heavy hands, don't really care about rgb. Edit: forgot to say that I mostly play fps games competitively.
