    Thanks for the help and I really want to move my Plex to Linux. I tried overserr now I found a discord bot called Requestrr that works pretty well. Yes I have a domain name and it's a local PC(server). We use WhatsApp because everyone else uses it tbh. And I can sense if I try moving everyone to another app I'll get even more WhatsApp messages asking how to do something on the new app . How did you move your Plex install to the Linux environment?

    Hi Everyone Looking for some help with my server. So my setup is running on Windows 10 because I'm comfortable with that. I have my Plex running all good, I've set up Sonarr and Radarr to get all movies and series I was missing. I'm setting up Ombi so that I can access Ombi from anywhere and that friends and family can request series and movies as the constant WhatsApp messages are driving me crazy. Now the process to get Ombi working remotely is a nightmare. I have it working on the server but cant access it remotely. I've can't seem to figure out how to install Nginx and the relevant domain name and DNS for it. I am a complete newbie to this so baby steps. Thanks for all the help.

    Hi so I have headphones that has a built in mic but my PC has 2 seperate jacks. When I use one I get audio but no mic and when I use the other I get on mic but no audio. I have a ASRock Pro btc + What should I do?

    For example I saw warzone being played at 120hz at 4k from YouTuber Jackfrags yet no RTX 3070 was able to do that.

    Hi so I'm genuinely torn as to which to choose and here's why I really only play a few games a year around 5. Based on the last year its been Warzone and multiplayer, Bloodborne, AC Odessessy, AOE 2 DE, and Red Dead Redemption 2. So I've seen benchmarks of games run on the PS5 and on RTX 3070 and it appears that for most games run at 60fps at 4k on PS5 which is roughly what the RTX 3070 can achieve. I will mostly play at 60fps and 4k as I play on TV and don't really want to get a monitor. My build for a PC would've been a Ryzen 5 3600 16gb DDR4 RTX 3070 In terms of pricing in South Africa the PS5 is roughly 750 USD and the PC would be about 1250 USD. So is PS5 crazy optimised such that it makes up for its weaker GPU compared to RTX 3070 ? Can anybody give some insight on which to choose and why ?

    In South Africa I surprisingly found someone selling it

    But a 3300x will be in budget so that should be better
  10. Denolan Moodley
    But in South Africa those parts cost considerably more 3600 is $268 Ripjaws is $90 Similar Motherboard is $115 So that's like 91 (1400 Rand)dollars over
  11. Denolan Moodley
    Yes this would be ideal but the price difference between a b450 and b550 is about 1500 Rands so it'll just put me over budget

    Budget (including currency): 19000 Rand Country: South Africa Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Only Gaming at 4k Other details: What I have already: 800w Psu, Case, Ssd and HDD Why only 4k: Well I don't have a monitor but do have a pretty good 4k LG TV and I'm more of a couch gamer. If I do get a monitor in the future it'll be a 1440p monitor. What do I need: Cpu, mobo, ram So my budget is strained so based on local pricing a RTX 3070 is 13000( $800 USD because of local taxes and customs) So I have around 6k to spend on cpu,mobo and ram. I can go 3300x,b450 and 16gb ram for 6k and if later upgrade to Ryzen 3600 or something. Or I can go i5 10400f, b460 and 16gb for 6k as well. From what I understand is that as resolution increases CPU performance is increased only by a bit while GPU increase by a lot. So as I will never be 1080p gaming. I should be okay ? Why don't I go last gen GPU and better CPU ? So I saw lots of reviews and I don't want to use last gen GPUs cause it's still really expensive (2070 super more expensive than a RTX 3070) so the economics don't work. What do you guys think ?

    I will enable it via DHCP that I saw on some how to guides.

    Hello and thanks for your help. So let me explain my current internet setup. I have DSL internet (no fibre available) and have it connected to a modem/router combo(router 1) unit which is connected via ethernet to another router(router 2) to act as an access point for better WiFi upstairs. My Plex server is connected to router 2 via ethernet cable. How can I access Plex from router 1 locally? I can't enable remote access on Plex because I have bad upload speed on my DSL internet. Thanks for your help

    Hi So I have to get a new router just because the WiFi signal is poor in my house. So I was looking and I saw routers ranging from R400($30) to R1500($100) and most of them talk about speeds like 833mbs and speeds way higher than 100mbs. I have a 20mbs DSL line. I don't have fibre in my area as yet so this is best I can get in South Africa at the moment. I want to know if there's any reason to go for any router higher than the $30 router. Yes I understand that the more expensive routers may have better signal but I would guess the $30 provides enough signal coverage and they both have similar protection. I'm resistant to get a pricey router given that my low DSL speed won't be able to utilise any features that are found on expensive routers. Thanks
