I feel even if I had any sort of following, they would still be inclined to not do much. I thought that was something Jay had an issue with.

Ok. Thanks. I don't live locally near any board-level repair so I would need to ship it. I thought ASUS would've been fine. Guess not.

Hello, I recently attempted to get an RMA on my ASUS AM4 TUF Gaming X570-Plus (Wi-Fi) because it would not boot. When power was turned on, nothing would light up. The power supply, CPU, and RAM all worked on a different motherboard so I completed the RMA request on June 7, 2023 and shipped it on June 9, 2023. Beside the stupid fact that I have to pay shipping on ASUS's product that no longer works but that is a different conversation. My RMA warranty was declined on the account of the first picture provided. This seems like a wildly outrageous reason to deny a total motherboard failure for scratches that are at the end of the PCIE slot (second picture). Along with the denial of warranty from ASUS, they also provided a bill if I were to proceed with their "repair" quoted to $314.58 USD. Does anyone have any insight onto why that bill would be so high if a new one costs $210 new on Newegg with the addition of ASUS adding a labor fee and a shipping fee for an 50% upcharge of my own product back to me for a reason that has nothing to do with why the motherboard won't turn on. Any info is appreciated!

From what I could find online, the Arduino MKR WAN 1310 is made for the LoRaWAN network to use with the Arduino Cloud. For my use case, it would make more sense if I were to connect it to Wi-Fi. Is this possible out of the box or do I need to look for something external like this wireless module? I would preferably like to make it work with the MKR 1310. Thanks for the help.

ETH has too high of fees even when it goes 2.0. You'd have to use something like Avalanche or Cardano unless Linus wants to do something more intricate and build a chain off of it. From the sounds of how the team feels about crypto, the chain development probably wont happen.

I think you are misinformed. Miners use ATX style PSUs and some other funky ones that I think is what you are talking about. Miners are now using 1U server power supplies and use a breakout board to separate the lanes. Similar (larger watt) to the I have in an older HP PROLIANT DL160 G6 server.

I found a dual CPU motherboard that runs off of DDR4 on Newegg (Dual Socket Motherboard E5CPU LGA 2011 3 Pin 8x DDR4 DIMM USB SATA M.2 PCI-E FEO). My concern is the socket it support (LGA2011) supports older CPUs that (from what I can tell) are all DDR3 CPUs. My question is, how would this board be combatable with DDR3 CPUs?

That's why I was trying to find a better and more seamless solution than trying to buy mining breakout boards that can also add to the bulkiness of the concept.

Server power supplies nowadays are much cheaper and much more efficient than ATX PSUs of the same quality not to mention smaller to power a motherboard and components (the noise is not an issue). This makes me believe that there has to be a conversion of some kind from something like a 2U or a 3U server style backplane to power a motherboard and its components. I have done a lot of looking for this but I can mainly find distribution units ripped out of servers that are for redundant PSUs or they don't support wattage higher than 700W. Does anyone have any idea on where I can look?

With regards to shipping to the USA, what are the current taxes/fees/tariffs associated with GPUs at the moment and how do they work? To my understanding, the fee is associated with the price of the GPU but I am uncertain.

If you look at one JaysTwoCents recent videos in which he describes how the report TSMC just publicly released to investors, TSMC says it is most likely going to be 2022 before the demand for GPUs will be down enough for consumers to buy them. This is besides the point of Crypto miners because TSMC also makes microcontrollers for other gadgets like cars.

I found an old motherboard in my garage with the CPU and CPU Cooler still on it. It is a ASUS Rampage IV Extreme with a i7-4930k. When I initially powered it on, it worked great and booted. Now I am only getting a 00 error code on the motherboard. I know it means something is wrong with the CPU but it has worked in the past and I don't know why there would be a sudden decision to not work. Would anyone be able to help me with this? Thanks for the help.

I have recently gotten a used 570 8gb GPU and my system is not detecting the device as a usable device. It detects it in device manager but that the device has issues and the system disabled it. I am unable to use it for graphics. I have tried current drivers and I have tried rolling them back to see if that would change anything and it hasn't. My system currently works with a 1070 so there is nothing wrong with the rest of my system. Do I need to flash the card or what else do I need to do? Thanks for the help.

I have been going through some of my old PC components and testing the each one to make sure they still work. I recently tested my Asus Rampage IV Extreme motherboard (EATX LGA2011) and it booted up fine. I revisited the system a day or two later and turned it on using the onboard system start (I do not have any of the components in a case and I am on a testing bench) and the Debug LEDs read "00". I read this meant "not used" in the manual but I do not know how to fix the issue. Methods attempted to fix the situation: - Changing the RAM to different slots and RAM quantities. - Re-socketing the CPU. - Putting the system into its slow-mode and rebooting. - Resetting the system BIOS. - Taking out all system components one-by-one until it was determined it was the motherboard. I had just the CPU in and the issue was still reoccurring and nothing changed. - Tested all of the components but the CPU and RAM in a different board and all of the hardware works fine. My system hardware is: - Motherboard - Asus Rampage IV Extreme motherboard (EATX LGA2011) - CPU - Intel Core i7-4930K 3.4 GHz 6-Core Processor - RAM - G.Skill Ares Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR3-2400 CL11 Memory (2x) - Graphics - Zotac GeForce GT 730 2 GB Video Card - PSU - EVGA BQ 850 W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply - Storage - Seagate Desktop HDD 4 TB 3.5" 5900RPM Internal Hard Drive I have tried finding the solution to this online and I haven't been able to find anything on any forms relating to my motherboard. The forms I found were all from over half a decade ago. Any help is appreciated

Do you have a suggestion or methodology on how I would be go about the second option? I don't have a spare computer to clone so would I have to run a VM and clone the VM?
