  1. My student association just discovered a pretty old server just sitting on a shelf but we can't identify the cpu. It's most likely way to old to be used but would be fun to know. It runs DDR2 and the harddrives in the server were only 32GB so suggests how ancient it is. Thanks for any help
  2. Hey, I'm starting on my bachelors degree in computer engineering and my old acer aspire is a piece of junk that bluescreens when I tried to update the graphics drivers. So I've been looking for a new laptop and I've had my eyes on the dell XPS13 and 15. I'm going to be using it as my main workstation since I won't have access to my main pc for some months. So I want it to have the capability for light gaming. Mostly retro titles and some lightweight indies. Do any of you have any experiences to share or better alternatives? The XPS15 is at the max I'm able to spend on this. Thanks in advance and have a beautiful day *adding later: the model I've been looking at is the Dell XPS 15 9510 - Core i7 11800H - RTX 3050Ti - 512GB SSD, non touch and 1920x1200 screen since there is a sale on a Norwegian site I'm looking at
  3. Thanks for your opinions think I'll just keep the one in and try to sell the 1070. Have a great summer
  4. So half a year ago I upgraded to an rtx 2080 super because I got a 3440x1440 screen, but I want to use my two other 1080p screens as well but as you probably imagine this causes some problems, so I wonder can I use my old 1070ti for side monitors and the 2080 super for the main screen in the same system. Is this a good idea or just stupid?
  5. I did a return to default in bios settings and everything went fine, my ram is back at 2666Mhz and its base voltage. My cpu voltage was at the same so maybe it was the ram acting up? Is it worth to keep trying to get 3600 or is it fine with 2666?
  6. I just installed my new rtx 2080S and two 8GB corsair vengeance 3600Mhz sticks. I went into the bios and changed the ram speed to 3600Mhz and the dram voltage to 1.35V. In the process I tried to change the cpu core voltage, it was at something like 1.4V or something (I have an 9900k) but when I tried to change it it went to 0.915V and even if I change it back to auto it still stays at that voltage. When I boot the system normally now it recognizes the 2080S but then it just turns off. Any ideas?
  7. Thanks for the help ? it's been a long time since I've gotten a new case so I didn't remember
  8. Hey i just bought a new be quiet! Dark base pro 900 rev 2. After finishing installing everything I boot it up and find out that everything but the fans (except cpu fans) and RGB strips work. After some googling I find out that I need to connect an S-ata cable but my Asus rog strix Z390-F does not have one, I've looked and looked but couldn't find one in the manual or on the asus page. What can I do? Is the simplest just to get an adapter or what should I do?
  9. Got it to work now, thanks for all the help
  10. I've done that now, is there anything else? It still isn't detected in file manager and according to disk manager its unallocated
  11. It asks if i want it as a MBR (Master Boot Drive) or GPT (GUID Partition Drive)? I'm not going to use it as a boot drive since my old 840 Sata drive is still fast enough for me in boot so do i just select GUID?
  12. I tried to do that but i just get this after it half way through updating
  13. I just bought a new Samsung 970 evo plus 1TB, so i installed it in my pc. Everything went fine, bios detected it no problem and i found it in the device manager but I'm not allowed to write to the drive. I haven't installed new storage in my pc for 4 years so i have forgotten if there are some special thing you need to do to be able to write to it. In the screen shot you can see that its detected by both device manager and Samsung magic but not my file explorer. Any tips?
  14. A few days ago i noticed that some programs were behaving weird, but now its crazy. I'm trying to study for exams but its kinda hard when my programs are doing this. I've tried re-starting and updating my graphics drivers. My virus software tells me nothing is up and ccleaner has all errors fixed. Has any of you experienced anything like this?
  15. Managed to fix it and it boots into windows thanks for the help anyways! Need to remember that googelig your questions before asking other people is a good option
