  1. Had this issue for ages and finally bothered to remove GPU and use onboard and it resolved the issue. Symptoms: -On desktop, mouse intermittently pauses. Media playing DOES NOT pause/stiffer and is unaffected. -if in a game, game will micro pause, still very playable if not competitive game. -Prob does it 60-70% of the time. I did benchmarks and stress test, DDU and new windows install. Tests all passed within spec and no overheating. Issue continued with platform change keeping only GPU and storage drives Anyone know of there's a possible fix, or is it just time to upgrade? Thanks
  2. Thanks. been through most of that (a lot to list) - 3 mice doing it on different prorts both wired and wireless (dongle). did it on old build and new build with only a few components following so not driver. but thanks
  3. It is installed as you literally can't have any profile on keyboard without it (it just goes demo mode when you close it). Closing the software dosent seem to fix the issue
  4. I have posted before and cant find an answer. My mouse stutters intermittently (G305). Cant play competitive games or fast paced FPS. I literally build a new* PC and the issue has followed. The only parts that came forward were: Mouse, Keyboard (Razer Blackwidow), 89TB HDD, SSD & a m.2 SSD. Resetting fixes it temporally. Its not the mouse as wired mouse does the same PLEASE HELP. any ideas. searched online heaps already
  5. Budget (including currency): Around $1000 (AUD) Country: Australia Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Cameras & gaming (8600k not handling that when i play games) Other details Want to downsize to an ITX build. Will be bringing over storage and GPU (GTX1070) Considering this: Coolermaster NR200 MAX (comes with AIO & 850w PSU) intel 12400 Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2x 16GB) DDR4 3600MHz C18 Memory Black ASRock B660M-ITX/ac WiFi LGA 1700 Mini-ITX Motherboard Im really unsure about my RAM choice but def want 2x16GB. Not sure on what specs make the most difference for intel platform let alone 13th gen My choices are based on being able to upgrade to 13th gen when 14th gen comes out and upgrade GPU at a later date Running 3 monitors but gaming monitor is an Acer Predator 1440, 165hz IPS that my GPU cant really even utilise My upgrade cycle is around 4-5 years so im planning with that in mind Am open to AMD build (actually really wanted to) but it seems at the entry level, i cant make a better AMD system and the price Ryzen 7000 requiring DDR5 pushes it out of my current budget (was really looking forward to it and long term support of the platform)
  6. Got an issue were any mouse connected to any USB port on my PC has a stuttering issue and will miss clicks on a stutter. The mice tested all work on my laptop fine and include both wired and wireless mice. The issue is not noticeable when dragging a window around. It happens in games but not in BIOS which led me to believe it was a windows issue. I reset windows but the issue remains. Someone else had a similar issue recently on the forum but it was not resolved. It started about 6 months ago but is getting worse. Its in games as well. My primary mouse is a G305 A list of what ive tried: -Different ports (did fix the issue for a day) -uninstall all USB and USB hub -uninstalled mouse -uninstalled Razer mouse driver (fixed the issue for about 2 hours) -Installed Logitech mouse software -Reset windows -Different mice -Install older chipset drivers ensured all latest hardware drivers installed -updated BIOS Could this be a hardware issue? See the attached vid of the issue. Please help!!!!! THANKS Hardware: 8600k Asrock z370 Extreme4 K6 1070OC Sniper 16GB Kingston hyperX 2 SSD, 1 NVME, 1 HDD 20220106_232744.mp4
  7. Hi All, As of 2 days ago, my GPU fax is getting very noisy when it spins up. Kinda sounds like a wire is touching it, but im assuming a bearing is gone. Its a galax GTX1070 sniper so im really not sure what my options are, its not like its just a case fax that i can just replace. What are my options? Thanks Update: makes no noise at +70%
  8. Hi all, Recently ive been having a lot of issues with the RGB on my Razer Balckwidow Elite. I cant control the RGB at all and cant save profiles to the keyboard and the software hangs whenever i change something. I thought it was a keyboard issue but it works fine on my lappy. I can even save profiles from lappy to the keyboard but they dont load by default on my PC nor can i edit/delete profiles from PC I believe its a windows issue as I have recently done a few things to 'optimise' win10 using some youtube vids and a few other things and I now believe ive done something thats causing an issue. I have already reinstalled drivers and software (and yes, a few reboots). I tried a few things from this site: https://www.christitus.com/clean-up-windows-10/ . But my question is, does anyone know anything like a service for example that could be causing an issue between windows and keyboard? Thanks
  9. just purchased an Acer Predator 27" and having a few annoyances...wanted it as secondary monitor but games generally only work on primary (without using windowed mode and other tricks...) The annoying issue im having is that it seems that windows is stupid. It knows that the Acer is bigger and higher resolution but when you move the cursor or window between monitors it goes wonkey as it seems to be measuring window size/location by pixels and not scaling right. So a moved window is literally smaller when it crosses the monitors. That part is tollerable, but it means that the cursor also moves... higher is at the lower half of the screen and lower if on the top half. Does anyone know of a workaround? Thanks ALso, does anyone know a decent workaround so that I can have my smaller monitor the primary with games loading on the secondary? I can swap the monitors around, buit the included cables with the Predator are a bit short and cant even reach across the table
  10. UPDATE: thanks to all who helped. I think the NAS has an issue itself. After power cycling, it looses all settings including passowrd and time. So, at least a scored a couple 1TB drives which I can use for backup of photos n stuff
  11. Ive already tried installing Win10 on a spare SATA HDD... the furthest i got was being able to boot off the CD until I got a jibberish screen (not BSOD or any obvious error, just crap)
  12. I have in my possession a Dell T110 server with a Xeon 3400. My intention was to just install Win10 and give it away as a school/office PC to a relative. I have no experience with server grade equipment and failed to really do anything with it... couldnt even install an OS. Given the mobo long boot time and the difficulty with using server hardware as an office PC, ive given up on the idea. Wanted to ask, is there anything I could use it for (or the processor)? I looked if there were any non-server mobo I could use and couldnt find anything. Maybe I just sell it for cheap on ebay? Thanks
  13. Thanks,. My current issue is that under "volumes" there is no icon to create a new volume. However, the NAS is detecting all my drives correctly. I have tried searching the issue but the only times i have found but, there was no answer
  14. So my update... Im running a 2TB in slot 1 and 3 x 1TB. When i go to create a new volume in Raid 5, it shows the 2TB as having 0 space available and therefore I can only make a drive of 2TB in RAID 5. Any ideas on this? Thanks
  15. Well, I'll find out TMR... I've set up the 2TB and freeded up the additional 1TB, it's 2300 here, so I'll have to finish tmr
  16. Thanks. Yea, i assumed I would be wasting 1TB, but its worth it since im not using the 2TB atm anyway (and have other spare drives). Thanks
  17. So i scored a seagate balckarmor 440 NAS from work, complete with 4 x 1TB HDD (woohoo). I want to get it working in RAID 5 on my home network for backup and cloud style storage. So I powered it up, connected to Ethernet, and it is VERY clickey on boot but then settles down. It will power off before completing boot. If I remove all the drives, it gives an error after booting "No system HDD Found" I put all the drives in a dock separately and it seems that drive 1 & 2 are dead (hence the too good to be true deal). Given that theres 100% no way for me to recover them (not that I want the data on them anyway), deleted the volumes on them that were part of a RAID. I put a working 1TB drive and it installed onto that drive. I do have 1 additional spare 1TB drive (same model) making 3. I have not worked with RAID 5 before, but I need to know, can I use a 2TB drive in slot 1 for Parity with slots 2-4 having 1TB drives? I am making a few assumptions along the way here, so please correct anything ive said that is wrong. Thanks
  18. I was curious what the correct term was so I googled it... and it only gets complicated there. Apparently "differently abled": is an "outdated term"... but you can use the word "disabled" but not if referring to a parking space. You simply cant knock someone just because they have not kept "up to date" with politically correct speech...
  19. Defiantly solved. Watching the latest LTT on youtube and what do I see on Liunus' table... Predator...
  20. All good points... great site for comparing monitors too. Looks like ill go with the Acer... only slight difference in display, better ergonomics and extra USB! Can never have too many USB ports

  22. - Drive RPM is not a performance measurement anymore. With larger capacity drives, the data is more dense meaning more can be read at a given RPM. -For reasons beyond me, external drives are significantly cheaper than internal and you can remove the drive for internal use. Google the external drive to try find out what is inside. I recently purchased a WD Elements 8TB for $249 (AUD) and the internal drive is actually a HSGT that retails here for about twice that. Its now been shucked and is my main media storage drive
  23. Hi All, Im after a new monitor for casual gaming and some media. After doing a bit of research (inc a lot of LTT vids), ive concluded that i want a 1440p, 144Hz (min), IPS, 4ms (max). I am well aware that as I dont competitively game or edit media that I dont really need all this, but its about WANTS.... Anyways, Im down to 2 monitors and am not sure which to get... Either the Acer XB271HU or the Asus PG279QE. They both appear to be the same spec wise but the Asus is about $100 (aud) more and I cant tell why. Anyone know why its more prices, or which would be the better monitor, or a suggestion os something I may have missed. Thanks
