  1. I have checked that before, and the fans do indeed stop spinning when it says 0RPM after a reboot.
  2. Alright so I have been having a bit of an issue lately with my GPU, I recently decided to turn off 'Zero RPM' so that the GPU is always cooled (literally makes no sense to *not* have the fans on, since there is really no noise difference and it does bring the idle and small load temps down quite a bit vs Zero RPM). Anyways, I will switch off Zero RPM, it will work fine and have the fans running for as long as the PC stays on, but once the PC goes in sleep mode or reboots, the fan is stuck at 0RPM and the only way to start it again is to Turn on Zero RPM, save, Turn off Zero RPM, save, then it works and the fans turn on. What is the issue here, is Radeon Settings just not saving my config? (Want to note that even when Zero RPM decides to re-enable, the setting shown in Radeon Settings is still set to 'off') Screenshot when Zero RPM is turned off, and working properly:
  3. I might look into that, but there is some software I use for one of my classes that is only available for Windows and Mac
  4. Hi, so I am looking for a quite small, thin, cheap, and somewhat powerful laptop for school (web browsing and some other windows software), I have seen a few online that might fit my criteria but I wanted to see if anyone here could help. My budget for this is around $100-$200 (preferably more near $100). It dosent really matter if it has a Celeron CPU as long as its not shit and I would like at least 4GB of RAM. If anyone could help me, that would be great! (Dosent have to be new, however that would be preferred)
  5. I mean, you could just buy a cheap Windows key off ebay to save $100 (which is what I have done for all my builds, never had a problem)
  6. Ok so heres my problem, I have 2 servers, a NAS which is used only for storage, and another linux home server that is basically for anything else such as a Webserver, VPN, Mail forwarder, etc. The problem is I can only port forward port 80 on one of these devices, and at the moment I am forwarding my 'everything else' server, as it serves my 2 websites. However I would also like to be able to access my NAS Web GUI page over the internet as well, currently I have all my domains pointing to my 'everything else' server which is running vesta (for the webserver and mail), it handles seperate websites for each domain. Would it be possible to point another subdomain such as 'storage' to my same IP, and then make a simple HTML page for the subdomain that has a webview that connects to the local NAS and then forwards the content to the HTML page on the storage subdomain, even though the NAS isint available on the internet, so the webview would be for a local IP such as 192.168.x.x I know this sounds a bit confusing, if you have any questions, just ask.
  7. Thats not a bad PC for its price, it should be able to run about any game on high/max settings. if you do go with the prebuilt I would suggest you upgrade the RAM to 16GB and get like a 1TB HDD for games storage. But, if you can build your own PC, you could make something similar (likely with more RAM and a HDD) for a bit cheaper than the prebuilt.
  8. So I hear Veeam is good software for backing things up, I simply want to backup my Windows PC and Laptop to my Centos 7 Home Server, what software do I download for the server, and which for the PCs?
  9. So lately I have been having about the oddest issue with my internet, with multiple computers and connections. Downloads from any particular site/application will usually be around 1.4-1.5MBPS+ (since my internet speed is usually 15MBPS), anyways what will happen is the downloads usually start around the normal 'fast' rate, and will have sudden dips lasting anywhere from a few seconds to 10 minutes. Sometimes they will dip down to 500KBPS, and then go back up, sometimes it even goes down to 20KBPS for a minute or more (want to note that other internet functions work fine and fast when the download speed goes down to this). I have the same issue over Ethernet, Wifi, anything. Ive rebooted the router many times, and cant seem to get to the source of the issue. I also want to note that the issue dosent always happen, sometimes downloads will stay around the 1-1.5MBPS range and be fine. But when the dips do happen its extremely annoying as I have no clue as to whats causing it, as nothing is using that much bandwidth for 10-20 seconds when it happens. My prime suspect at the moment is that AT&T is throttling my speeds, as I have downloaded pretty much my entire steam library this past month onto my build. However, from what I have seen I dont have a 'limit', and I usually use nowhere near the 'max' usage on our bill, which if I am remembering correctly is 1TB. My router is a AT&T router/modem combo, my connection is over normal DSL (phone line).
  10. Ok so I bought this old Dell optiplex on ebay to use as a server, only thing is, it only came with 2GB of DDR3 PC3-12800. Now my question is, if I were to take 4GB of DDR3 PC3-8500 from my old build (2x2gb since the optiplex only has 2 slots for RAM), would it better than having 2GB of PC3-12800 ram, although its a lower speed?
  11. Have you checked for anything running in the background that would be using lots of bandwidth? (I would also recommend turning off 'Delivery Optimization' and seeing if that fixes it, its been known to use a ton of bandwidth).
  12. I would suggest bringing it to a computer repair store to atleast get the data off the HDD, then you could just use another PC to make a bootable Windows 10 USB and reinstall, might need a new HDD or other repaired parts though.
  13. Hi, so I am looking for a used optiplex (or equivalent system of another brand) on ebay that fits these specs, my budget is around $40 (including shipping) - Includes atleast 2 GB RAM (4GB preferred) , CPU, CPU Cooler, PSU, HDD would be great but not required (Basically not a barebones system, minus a HDD) The goal here is to replace monthly costs of a cloud VPS, and have it locally hosted at my house.
  14. Just a warning to anyone, do not install the gaming app! I first tried the 'cooler boost' feature (high fan speed), it got stuck and I had to reboot my PC to get it off, then the GPU just went crazy, lines everywhere. Shut the PC down, turned back on, worked fine now, immediately uninstalled the MSI Gaming app.
  15. Also, what would a safe overclock on afterburner be, so that I dont blow up the card lol
  16. So I recently got a MSI RX 480 8GB 'Gaming X' card, and I am wondering, should I download the MSI gaming app, or is it obsolete at this point (since the only videos, etc on it are from 2016), meaning can I do the same features with afterburner and other tools?
  17. Only thing is, this is a RMA'd card itsself, it was a good price on ebay, and was still sealed, its not the ebay sellers fault, as the card wasent even used or opened yet, so what should I do?
  18. Yep, im getting this 'Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)'
  19. Disabled the APU in BIOS, set it to 64m, exactly the same issues. Is there anything else I can do?
  20. You have to disable the intergrated GPU? I thought it automatically switched off??? (If this is the reason, im an idiot then)
  21. No, because I just got this GPU today but I could try that
  22. So, a little background here, I recently bought a MSI RX 580 4GB GPU, I had only been using the Ryzen 3 2200G APU until this point. I then install the GPU, remove the old drivers, attempt to reinstall new RX 580 drivers, dosent work. I then go through every single combination possible of removing the drivers, restarting and reinstalling, safe mode DDU removal and reinstallation, chipset drivers installation, and Windows update drivers (which only caused a BSOD loop that could only be fixed by removing their drivers on safe mode) you could imagine. When I do get past the AMD installer, it never actually installs, and I get the error 'No AMD graphics driver is installed' upon trying the radeon settings. At this point, I have even REINSTALLED WINDOWS, tried the same methods, *absolutely nothing* is working. I am extremely angry at this point, as this GPU cost me $120, and ive been trying to get it to install the damn drivers for about 2 hours now, as I hardly ever have enough money to invest in new PC parts, it makes me very angry when they do not work. If ANYONE has any idea whats going on, or what I can possibly do about this, I would love to hear your solutions.
  23. Just gonna say here, you can just use Microsofts own tool on another PC to make a bootable USB, then install Windows on the new PC without a license key, then just do what I did, go on ebay, and buy like a $10 key, I havent had any issues with ebay keys yet (however I would be cautious about being scammed). (Ebay keys arent the best option, but if you have a budget, it works)
  24. So on my new build, which is very good overall, except for one thing, the Cable Management, there is almost none at all, since the case dosent seem to have space for it (almost no space on other side of case).. Any tips on what I could do here? I attached some pictures of it. The case: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147122
