  1. Oh wow I am just dumb thats probably the total donation from subscribers. SMH
  2. I was on Floatplane today and saw this on craft computing's channel: Last I checked, $2 + $5 != $205. Is there a way to report this to the Floatplane Media Group as a bug?
  3. Thanks for the input everyone, that helped put me at some ease. Is there a tell-tale sign that I am over-stressing my psu, for future reference? Will it just shut off randomly when under really heavy synthetic load?
  4. To get it out of the way, here are the specs of my current system: Ryzen 3600 GTX 980ti 2 by 16 GB corsair vengeance lpx ddr4 memory 2 phanteks case fans 2 corsair case fans Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black RGB 2 SATA SSDs 1 Toshiba 2 TB 7200 rpm HDD 1 wd blue 500 GB 5400 rpm HDD 2 wd velociraptor 1TB 10K rpm HDDs Corsair RM850x PSU And since I don't game very much anymore, and instead just use my 980ti for machine learning, I bought an ASUS RX580 Dual 4G card that I was hoping to use as a display adaptor to drive my monitors (I am on linux so the older amd card made sense, plus it was cheap), but when I checked my system power consumption in outervision, I got the following result: Which is, needless to say, greater than 850 watts. Now I have a buddy with an HD 7950 that he is looking to upgrade, and this RX580 fits his budget, but when I plug in the HD7950 instead of the RX580 in outervision, I get the following result: Which is below 850 watts, but outer vision still thinks I need a better power supply. considering that its somewhere around 300 dollars to get a decent 1000 watt PSU (ouch!) I just want to know if I am cutting it too close on my PSU's rating. Can I add the RX580 to my system? Can I add the 7950 instead? Can I add neither to my system? Thanks for the input
  5. System Configuration: CPU: I7 4790K GPU: GTX 980ti RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR3 16 GB (4 X 4GB) at 2133 MHz PSU: Corsair RM850 MOBO: Asus Maximus 7 Hero (BIOS Version 3201) Symptoms: I wanted to restart my computer to boot into linux instead of windows, and got postcode 99 (Super IO Initialization) after power cycling. I wasn't able to get into the bios anymore, and after reading some other posts online I decided to remove all I/O devices (hard drives, optical drive, GPU, ethernet, USB ports, etc.) and see if that would fix it. It did not. I then tried doing a BIOS flashback to the newest stable release, but no dice. Are there any other things I should try? I am just confused because my computer was running perfectly fine in Windows 10 before I rebooted. Thanks in advance.
  6. I am a college student (where's the money at tho?) and since I am a Computer Engineer I do almost all of my work on Linux. I backup my code and notes to private github repos (free for college students), but I would like an offsite backup for my pictures, lab reports, etc... I liked Backblaze a lot, but unfortunately they don't support Linux (unless I pay significantly more for month). What should I be using for my offsite Linux backup? Thanks in advance.
  7. 100 ms + or - 10% on average, but that's at home, at school its much worse and my ping there is much better
  8. Hello! I have noticed recently that both my machines have been running webapps (Jira, Gmail, Outlook, Word Online, etc.) much more slowly over the past few months than in the distant past. Now neither of these machines are total slouches, one has a 4770K and 12 GB of RAM and the other has a 7500U with 16 GB of RAM. But all these webapps still run sluggish AF. Is it because I am using firefox instead of chrome? Is there a web browser that can run these things better? The mobile apps for these different applications run better on my ancient BlackBerry PRIV than on either of these machines. Anyone have an explanation?
