  1. LTT loves to do things in house and grow their business to be very independent so I wouldn't be surprised if they partner with MegaPro for the initial launch, they might branch off and go to some offshore company and still some how get high quality parts. I mean they did it with their merch, in the beginning they used a third party company but went more independent and now talks to the manufactures themselves. Just look out for when Linus disappears for a while and goes to china to check out some factories for the screwdriver.
  2. It's the same wire for tv. So I need to have tv cables to translate the signal to ethernet, then transfer the ethernet to a router.
  3. I was turning in some cable boxes that I no longer use to save money, first thing they did was try to sell me a phone, then tell me that I need a special optimum modem for gigabit that would cost around $200 plus monthly maintenance fees of $10 a month. I was like na, I'll just do it myself lol
  4. Sorry, it's not cat in, they said coaxial, so modem for coaxial to copper ethernet, then ethernet to my router
  5. Well yes, but according to optimum I can do gigabit without fiber 940 down 50 up
  6. I have 300 but upgrading to gigabit in the next few days and I'm done paying $10 a month to rent a modem
  7. I've been looking for a VERY cheap Coaxial Gigabit Modem that doesn't have a router for about 3 hours now lmao. I have a Nighthawk X4S Router which can do Gigabit but I need to upgrade my modem. I've been looking and I cant find one cheap. I don't need name brand or one that looks nice. Anyone have any ideas or modems?
  8. ok... okay.... I'll get an ssd. lmao. Also a new Graphics card
  9. My friend and I put a computer together with used parts and we feel like there is a component holding it back. We believe it is the CPU. Overclocked CPU & RAM to the limit before I had to clear CMOS Cinebench Multicore: 3552 3D Mark TimeSpy: 2313 The Parts: CPU: AMD FX-8350 8-Core Black Edition Motherboard: MSI 970A-G43 Cooler: Generic Master Cooler Ram: G.SKILL DDR3 1866 4GBx2 HD: 500GB 7200RPM Barracuda Power Supply: ARESGAME Power Supply 500W 80+ Bronze GPU: EVGA NVIDIA GeForce 770 2GB GDDR5
  10. @F.E.A.R.I sorta merged both builds and came up with this, A LOT cheaper than both of ours and I think it will be an awesome computer. I am still up for changes if anyone has anything to recommend. My dad wont be installing anything that large so the 1tb m.2 will do just fine I believe.

  11. @F.E.A.R.You need to send the link at top left of the webpage, for my build it is https://pcpartpicker.com/list/GZyhxG, you just put pcpartpick.com/list/ which reads your cookies for the last build that you made
  12. Budget (including currency): Trying to get it down to $800 or less, willing to go up to $1000 Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Internet Browsing, Light workloads, 20 google tabs open at once lol, 4k Live streaming movies/video, small games Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): PARTS LIST: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NRNxQq I am planning on buying my Dad a new PC, his right now is a Dell Windows 7 All-in-one with I think 4 gb of ram. I am planning on having a 1440p or 4k monitor with above 60 hz and lower than 144. I am trying to lower the price as much as I can (Trying to get down to the $800), but if I have to I can go up to $1000. I would like so recommendations on the parts list I have put together, other parts that would be cheaper and better, and I am willing to ask any questions.
  13. I have fixed it, I had ryzen's recording software up which freezes the mouse all the sudden
  14. I updated and did a clean install of drivers on my Ryzen 580 after getting issues with graphics on screen. The clean install of drivers fixed it but now my mouse freezes/hitches on screen every few seconds. I have tried basically everything to updating windows to reinstalling the graphics card driver again.
  15. @Jarno.One more thing when installing the .exe file. it gives me the same error, so if I press cancel it says that the older version of Microsoft Visual C++ 2019 X64 Minimum Runtime - 14.22.27821 cannot be removed.
  16. @Jarno. It was a exe file. The website is from https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads I picked the x64 version I also just uninstalled and reinstalled Microsoft XNA Framework Redistributable 4.0 just incase
  17. @Jarno. So here's what happened. I have already uninstalled the 2019 version earlier but I have cleared the cache and there was no ccmcache file. I used Revo Uninstaller to uninstall all traces of the 2015-2018 versions also cause there was errors with those versions too. After all traces were gone I went to the Microsoft website and got the direct download for Visual C++ 2015-2019 and I got the same error as before.
  18. @Jarno. Hey thanks for this input but I have backed it up and deleted the files in the cache and I am still getting the same exact error
  19. So, I updated windows and after I updated it every time I try to play a game that uses Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2015-2019 x64 Minimum Runtime, it would try to download it and gives me the error that I am trying to use a network resource that is unavailable and I should try and find the folder that contains "vc_runtimeMinimum_x64.msi" I have went back to the earlier version of windows, before I updated it and the error is still here. I have contacted Microsoft and all they have done is update windows again to fix the "Corrupted files". It hasn't done shit. I have went to websites to download the 2015-2019 visual C++. It gives the same error. I have ran ReImage repair. Also hasn't done shit. What the fuck should I do. Games run if I continue to click cancel, but crash after 10 minutes of playing. Games for example are GTA 5 & Battlefield V
  20. @ProfBrownWell I chose 32GB of ram because I do a lot of video editing, rendering, and after-effects. And at the time of last year (When I bought the build, right before Christmas time) It seemed to me the GTX 1070ti was the best choice, in the next year or so I am thinking of upgrading to an RTX 2080ti. To the response of the M.2... Well, I didn't think of that until I bought the build. So, yea. We might also buy one for more games and better scrubbing in video editing.

  22. @Ebony FalconAt the moment I have one MSI GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 8GB Titanium Video Card if I was to get the MSI GeForce RTX 2080 8 GB VENTUS OC I would get only one at first then another one maybe 6 months later
