  1. Started up my PC today and nothing has changed since yesterday except my UM@ no longer works, shows up in device manager, and windows sound devices, when i tap my mic the level indicator lights up but windows does not detect any sound. uninstalled and reinstalled default drivers, and unofficial drivers, nothing works.
  2. One of the better ways to tell if your audio on board is fried is if you can't find it in your device manager, make sure you check there, uninstall the driver from there, and also make sure it doesn't show up in the control panel's "remove a program" before reinstalling a driver
  3. I ran the usb 3 like that because it was not long enough to come through the bottom, my camera is picking up more blue than there actually is and yeah i've tried other colors, but the same thing will have, my camera will screw them up.
  4. I have recently upgraded my PC and by upgrade I only saved the GPU. The highlights are a 3600x and a 2070 super, deep details can be found on my profile, slightly less details on the PCPartpicker.

If i could do anything different it would be a bigger case and the white version of my current GPU, everything is kinda cramped and eventually I want to do custom hardline loop, not possible in this case. Constructive criticism is welcome but only if you're actually telling me how amazing I did, all other comments with be met with me crying.
  5. I'm no expert on ram latency so i can only comment on what i know, i have never looked at compatibility list when buying ram, just got what i wanted, that being said if you're buying from amazon(yes i see the newegg they accept returns too, just not as easily) and they end up not working they almost always accept returns within the month no questions asked. When it comes to power supplies i believe both Corsair and EVGA are highly respected and as long as you're getting a Gold 80+ rated PSU you're probably going to be okay.
  6. Yes that would work but if you always want to be 100% and really care just plug your wrist strap into the ground port on an extension cord that is plugged in. That also means you dont have to drag out your old pc.
  7. free desk so i dont complain, heres a top down pic, excuse the dust.
  8. I really need to upgrade my cpu, but i want Ryzen so i need new motherboard, which i would want to get an ATX so i need a new case and i am set on the Corsair Crystal series which would total to 700+ dollars.
  9. You can get a list of everything on my profile, i built this PC in 2015 and just recent got into audio and also got a new GPU. The only thing not listed on my profile is the NZXT HUE+. (one photo with monitor off for better lighting)
  10. as for "high end cables" i'm sure you've heard it before, a conductor is a conductor, there are definitely low end cables that can suck but if you are not running a 1500 watt amp to your 15" subs you do not need to worry about what cable you are using, as long as the connection is made. Not to mention if you buy high end items like Sennheisers they come with cables adequate for themselves. (there does come a point where there are things out of your control that will affect sound and circuits, vibrations from trains or wind turbines, radiation from the sun or cell towers, how your house was built etc)
  11. yes, yes. i will attempt to reinstall all windows updates then.
  12. i have windows 10 pro 64bit, and on nvidias webpage there is not way to select if you download standard or dch drivers
