afaik, only the slot that comes from CPU will be affected, so probably only one m.2 slot
and my bad, it's page 32
Looks like it's recognizing the drive when I have the card in pcie slot one and the m.2 in slot 3. I'm hoping it'll work with the car in slot 2 because the fan blocks the card from being in slot one and slot 2 should have the same bandwidth

Ahh that page I went through that one. I think you're right though, this doesn't indicate that that the m.2 nvme shouldn't be working, or did I read it wrong?

i dont think so, normally it's disabled automatically if you plug in an m.2 drive in a specific slot, the manual have a table for that around page 15 iirc
It looked like just some installation instructions around pg15. I'm sitting here and can boot to bios and even to the windows usb I made, but it just won't show up in the disk management even though its plugged in to slot 1.
initially I thought the m.2 drive was a dud until I was able to turn on the pc using integrated graphics and the old sata ssd with windows. I made the partition and everything and it was there but with the gpu it just doesn't want to work. Its so strange.
It says on page 23 at the bottom that only 11th gen supports this... It can't mean using m.2 in general right? It literally worked without the gpu...

Hm maybe I should update the bios? Honestly no clue guess I'll just try.

z590 have certain m.2 slot disabled for 10th gen CPU due to lacking of pcie lanes (16 vs 16+4), might have to read the manual for that
though, skimping thru the manual, i cant see any reason why the pcie slot will be disabled if you plug in an m.2, manual says it'll disable sata ports instead
and the 2nd pcie x16 slot (x8 electrically) should be directly from the CPU and shouldnt be affected, so idk eitherweird, because the sata ports worked with the sata ssd and sata hdd. I'll take a look thru the manual. Is there something maybe I need to enable/disable..?

I was building my friend's new PC today and I decided to turn it on before I put it in the case to see if anything was wrong.
And there is something wrong. At first, this m.2 drive wouldn't pop up in the drive to choose to install windows. I had the GPU in PCIe slot 2 and the m.2 in m.2 slot 1, because the NH D15 was too big with two fans for slot one. I tried moving the GPU to slot 1 but it still wouldn't work. I used his old SSD with windows installed and it turned on fine, right to the lock screen. But the m.2 drive wasn't in the disk management.
When I used the integrated graphics, the m.2 drive was recognized and I was able to create a partition. When I tried booting with the GPU and m.2 drive again, it either wouldn't display from the card or the drive wouldn't be recognized.
I'm guessing this has something to do with the PCIe lanes..? I've never dealt with this issue before but I do remember that m.2 drives function differently than SATA and can conflict with GPUs/anything in the PCIe slots.
Thoughts? I'm really stumped and I want to get his PC running. It works fine but he needs windows on this new drive, not the old one.

I used to browse here on the forums a lot and liked to help people out. I've been able to fix every issue thats appeared during a build, but I'm unsure on this one.

Okay thanks, do you have any recommendations for HDDs by chance. What should I look for?
the regular name brands like a segate barracuda or western digital caviar blue should be fine. If you have the extra money you can pick up a 1tb SSD but an HDD will be fine.
-
This looks nice overall. The only things I'm initially noticing is the cooler and the PSU. Your PC won't need 750w but if thats the only wattage in stock for a smaller PSU then it makes more sense. For the cooler, it's a little overkill for a 3600 but it'll definitely be quiet if thats what you want. You can save some money by getting a different cooler.

Wait, never mind that was a different post. I agree, add an hdd for bulk storage.
i somehow thought i saw an hdd in there after you replied so we both misread its all good

would the games go on the HDD? If so, wouldn't that slow the load speed and such for them?
Yeah they can go on the HDD just fine. Maybe you might load into a csgo map 1 second slower but thats the only difference you would notice. The actual game's speed is up to your cpu and cpu unless your HDD is old, broken, and corrupted. Thats when drives start slowing the whole computer down.

They have a 500gb ssd and 2tb hdd in the list
aha cant read im pretty cool
-
consider getting some more storage (like a 1tb HDD or SSD), unless you're going to be able to manage with 500gb (more like 400gb after windows is installed). -
is there a budget you're trying to stay in?

consider a different power supply. power supplies are important and even though the bad ones don't usually explode or die in the long run its better to play it safe and get a nice power supply. check out the power supply tier list, it should be pinned in the power supply sub forum. go for anything above B+ tier thats below 650w. high wattage isn't needed.

I typed that all out for you; you might as well do it, it's free. At least set up the free NoIP server, that will probably fix your problem. Also, my friend group phishes the others to try and get their data / IP addresses and then DDOSes them while they try and play competitive games, so I would be careful. (Perhaps my friend group is a little weird, but there you go)
I trust my friends a lot they're my brother and I's real friends that live close. I'll look into what you said I appreciate it a lot I'm just a little stressed right now.

I'm not sure exactly what your issue might be; but it's generally not a great idea to just be giving out your IP address to those who wish to connect. I do some minecraft server hosting; what I do is run a program called NoIP on the host which links it to a .hopto domain name. The advantage of using NoIP is that it provides a basic layer of protection to those trying to attack your home network (Very basic, just hides your IP from a basic look), and it dynamically updates so if your ISP decides you have a different IP address, it will update within 5 minutes. In my case, I then take the NoIP domain it gives me and use SSLH to set up a Ubuntu server with AWS EC2 and simply have it redirect all connections to the .hopto domain. This is what provides the real protection, because AWS DDOS protects their EC2 servers and anyone trying to hack you will be trying to hack Amazon, which probably won't work. They also offer free static IPV4 IPS, "Elastic IPs" so you can then buy a GoDaddy domain or something similar to point to your AWS IP. I'm doing this for minecraft, so I followed this guide: https://www.howtogeek.com/440752/protect-your-home-minecraft-server-from-ddos-attacks-with-aws/
The only thing wrong with it is one line partway down the page, it says
DAEMON_OPTS="--user sslh --listen 0.0.0.0:25565 --anyprot your_ip_address:25565 --pidfile /var/run/sslh/sslh.pid
When what it really should say is
DAEMON_OPTS="--user sslh --listen 0.0.0.0:25565 --anyprot your_ip_address:25565 --pidfile /var/run/sslh/sslh.pid"
(The quote at the end is important, so it closes the string. Otherwise you will get an error).
The method I described above is all free, besides from the 1$ or whatever for a .us GoDaddy domain, and AWS fees if you go above a certain amount of data throughput.
It's my IP just for my friends

Hi forums, I've been having issues with setting up a terraria server from my old computer. I'm using the built in terraria server hosting (not the steam connections) and I finally was able to get all my friends to connect with my IP, but I can't connect from my main gaming computer. My brother, who is on wifi was able to connect too. I was able to connect from the server pc with the localhost ip (127.0.0.1) but I just can't connect from my own PC. Both the server and my main PC are connected into the same router. I think it might be something with my firewall but I have no idea since I'm a noob with these kind of things.
If anyone has any idea for what might be happening any help is really appreciated because all my friends are playing without me... DD:
edit: I tried my ipv4 IP and my actual IP that would show my location

Maybe you could try a drive recovery centre?
My dad was thinking that but I know those can be expensive. I also just wasn't sure because we have access to the enterprise version of Disk Drill.

So the drive does work and you are able to access the data but the drive is slow, correct?
I wasn't able to get past the users folders but there are other parts I could navigate through.

Hi, I was trying to recover some family photos from my dad's old WD Green that's 9+ years old but this drive is veeeery slow. I was able to get some stuff off of it that my parents wanted but it took a bit to load. The drive just wouldn't load the windows Users folders, which is what my dad wanted to open because of all the family photos.
My brother has some program called Disk Drill through his work and I was wondering if that or something else would be any help to get our old family photos.
If anyone can help it would be super appreciated because of the memories on the drive. Thanks in advance.

The CPU fan error.
ohhh no we didn't disable that. Anyhow I guess the wraith prism just died after a week for some reason...

Did you update the BIOS, and then disable the warning? Did your friend do anything within the BIOS that would cause the setting to be reset? Is it still set as disabled?
what do you mean the warning, I don't remember anything like that.

Is the cooler fan plugged into the CPU_FAN header?
yeah it's in the CPU fan header.
pc won't recognize m.2 with gpu plugged in, gpu won't display when m.2 is recognized.

Yeah, thats def it. I must've been too confused and stressed from it not initially working and I didn't try all the possible combos. I decided switching some more stuff around it's working now. Thanks Brah
