  1. Well now i know, thanks! We did this too, to no avail. This was actually the first thing that we did. We also tried just a good ole restart after we DDU, then installed the driver and that didnt work either
  2. Is the windows up to date? I know sometimes this is causing problems Yeah it is, i wish it was that easy
  3. That isn't how it works I think. Windows would boot and then when GPU is under load that's when you'll run into issues, performance or otherwise. I know the PC does a self check when booting but I kinda doubt it puts the GPU under full load during that. See thats what i thought but i figured that id throw it out there to see if i was incorrect in my thought process Why? Idk when i was googling that was one of the things in the top results. Not sure why that would do anything tbh but i was desprate
  4. So a friend of mine bought an EVGA 2060 (I will make an edit to list the exact model when he responds to me). The problem is that when he installed the card and the drivers for the card, he didn't have access to the NVIDIA control panel and he couldn't change the resolution in windows. So he turned to me. I had him do the following: Run DDU (yes in safe mode.) then install the driver Perform a clean install Restart NVIDIA Container Service , then clean installed After a DDU, install the latest driver straight from the geforce.com/drivers website. (He had installed GeForce Experience from EVGA and installed the driver that way before i helped him.) installing NVIDIA control panel from the windows store (i didn't even know that was a thing until i was googling the problem) Resetting windows then installing the driver My thought is that there is a software issue somewhere, he can load windows using the basic display drivers and the 2060. Taking a look into device manager shows that windows stopped it for some reason (Code 43 if that helps.). I'm not quite sure where the issue is. The only other nuance is that on the box it recommends a 500w psu he happens to have a 450w psu. To my knowledge if it was a power draw issue, windows wouldn't even boot, he wouldn't even be able to POST. I don't think that it would prevent a driver from installing if there was a power issue. Any thoughts?
  5. I see, thats what i thought. Thank you!
  6. I guess it helps that I am in the US and this is what the Amazon US stores look like.

  8. So like for the past week ive been looking for a brand new 1070ti from newegg/amazon. So like where are they now?
  9. Currently, I'm running a G3258 OC'd @ 4Ghz and tomorrow i will obtain my 4790k in the mail. Is there anything i should do before installing the 4790k?
  10. So im doing an upgrade from a C2Q (dont know the model number, it was passed down to me) with an evga mobo to a g3258 and an asrock z97pro4 mobo. Is it possible to install the new hardware without a fresh install, or would i need to reinstal windows and all of the programs asociated with it
  11. Hai Nick! I would use this to help upgrade my rig from an Intel Core 2 Quad so i can multi-task better while gaming and hopefully streaming

    SnapCash?

    Hey, im gonan be completly honest, i think its stupid too . I think its honestly a waste of time and a security risk. But i mean its definitely something they are advertising.

    SnapCash?

    So i was randomly browsing the internet, and i thought to myself, "I wonder if Snapchat has a website, it would be stupid if they didn't." Then i proceeded to do a Google search and low and behold they do. However, their site is... confusing at best. Not really knowing what to do, i click on the big cash symbol in the center and proceed to watch a video about SnapCash. I guess its just another way to pay somebody that you have on Snapchat. Now my question to you: How do you guys feel about it? Would you trust your valuable bank information to yet another large corporation? If you would like to see it for yourself, here's a link to the site: https://www.snapchat.com/
  14. Linus i found your channel thought Newegg tv. It was when they first started livestreaming ALt+Tab show. They sent me to you and lve loved you guys ever since. Keep up the great work and i hope to see Even greater quality work in the future (not that its not already FANTASTIC )
  15. I really like its ergonomics. i think this is a well rounded Laptop with upgrade-ability.
