    No, edge chromium is better anyways.

    After all the troubleshoot you did I'm really at a loss then, Do you have the latest amd chipset driver? There's a possibility that you have faulty ram, run memtest at 2400 and see if you get any errors.
  3. warmongerp
    Is your ram sited on dual channel configuration? Read mb manual. Its usually the second farthest from CPU and the farthest from the cpu. If they aren't seated on this configuration you aint getting good speeds.

    Windows xp was pretty intuitive.

    This is gold, pure gold.

    The op is right, I'm just here judging who shill NVidia, don't mind me.

    God no, this isn't reddit.

    Myths often are funded on some truth. There even a bitwit video where is warns about the dangers of powering a pc off and on, jayz also has some video (or he tackles the subject randomly I dont remember)

    My source is decades working on hardware, pc hardware likes to be working, they are not designed to be powered off and on, they are designed to run 24/7. A good video for linus (1 year experiment or even more if necessary), build the exact same pc, one one pc your turn it off and on everyday, the other you leave it running 24/7. I can bet you my kidney and lung that the pc that is turned off and on will fail first, ppl who work around computer hardware know this. Maybe this knowledge is not mainstream because of electric bills (?) or even maybe brands (if hardware fail you need to buy new one) but I'm shocked ppl dont know this juding by some replies. GUYS IF YOU CAN AFFORD IT, TO KEEP YOUR PC HEALTHY NEVER TURN THE DAMN THING OFF. HELL BUY A UPS TO EVEN KEEP IT ON DURING BLACKOUTS!!!

    The act of powering on or off a PC will stress all capacitors ten fold more than constant current from 24/7 ever will (now imagine you power on and off your pc everyday, that poor motherboard..), that's my point. Again this is not up for debate, pc hardware likes to be on, the more you turn on and off a PC there is a higher probability you will run into problems as opposed to just leaving in on always.

    Fixed it for you. What wear and tear? CPU doesn't move, GPU doesn't move, motherboard doesn't move. All that moves on a pc nowadays are the fans, wear and tear is not a thing on desktops unless you're talking about HDDs. The act of powering on or off a PC is harmful in unpredictable ways on modern hardware, leaving it running 24/7 is not harmful at all on modern hardware.

    It's not my fault you never heard it lol This is not really discussion worthy, its a well know fact for the last 2 decades. Go research it. Components are tested for 24/7 usage. About Powering it on and off, they are not tested or built for that. Why do you think servers last so much time with little failure rate compared to home desktops? BECAUSE THEY ARE NEVER TURNED OFF. The best practice the keep your components healthy is never turning them off, that is a fact and not up for debate son.
  14. warmongerp
    Whaaat? This is literally the only tip on this thread that will help you, of course good components help but this is the ultimate tip to keep a desktop healthy, never turn the damn thing off. Most desktop failures come from powering it on or off, dont take my word for it, talk to any person who handles hardware and any person who minimally understand how pc components works will tell you the same, a pc that is on 24/7 will last longer than the same pc that is turned on and off everyday, this is a fact, take it as you will.
  15. warmongerp
    Just to add to my point. most computer failures come from powering it on or powering it off. Just never turn if off and your PC will always be happy.
  16. warmongerp
    Never turn off your PC, never, ever. Only turn it off when you need too (like going out of town). I owned by now 7 deskpots pcs, only one failed me, I turned it off everyday when I went to bed, in lkess than 3 years he started dying on me. The other 6 were always on 24/7 and never had any problems with any of them. Your components are designed to be working always, when you turn on and off your computer you are stressing the components in ways they are not really designed to sustain. Any person who handles hardware will tell you the same, if you want a pc to last 10 years just never turn it off.

    Check and double check the sata cables connected to the motherboard and also double check the power cables from the PSU that power those drives.

    League will never use much of your GPU, for starters its a CPU bound game, you will never get more han 30/50% GPU usage on league with any modern grapichs card and the game can run on a toaster. CPU is way more important in league and again it doesnt matter anyway because it can run on a double core.
  19. warmongerp
    You might have pulled some cable closing the case, check all connections Nothing you did would kill a pc, let alone "short it"

    Cmon guys. It's immersive, you also get them when you watch on the tv.

    Since I only play online games a pretty long time, I just recently upgraded from a 1060 to a 1660 super (+ Ryzen 3600) just because Apex/CoD/Battlefield frames were getting a little to choopy, I don't see myself upgrading the next 2/3 years, I also play 1080p so yeah

    I fail to see how this reply is in any way shape or form useful or adding to the discussion. My point is that tdp must go down across the board, not only the 3090?
  24. warmongerp
    Also this, I have my pc on 24/7 every year and being able to not notice it on my bill is pretty nice. My take on people who dont care about hungry power tech is that they dont pay their own bills. And I really dont call an "advancement" if the performance goes up while the tdp goes up, true "advancment" is when performance goes up and power consumption goes down, look at airline companies, they wont buy new planes that go really fast, they will only buy planes that go fast and consume the absolute minimum, this is what pc builders should aim at and I cringe when someone says they "dont care about tdp"
  25. warmongerp
    This is what most important to me, no pc I've built ever pulled more than 450 watts and this will go down on the next. We should move way from power hungry tech, not embrace it.
