FireofDestruction

I knew in 7th grade I wanted to join when I got to highschool I went to the rotc program and was in it all four years of highschool. 

Ended up going into the Airforce as a 3P0X1 aka security forces which is the airforce fancy term for police.

Never went overseas, but a base of mostly civilian contractors and a small percentage of military there was lots of stuff that occurred that I wish I'd never seen.

I've been out since 2020 just before the pandemic hit went to a trade school to be an electrician. Been good from there.

I just wanted to let you guys know a gift card is the exact width perfect for gift cards and reusing the box the screwdriver came in. Wrapped the girlfriends disney gift card in the LTT screwdriver box and put plastic bags in it to fill the empty space

i suppose its too hopeful to pray hat maybe some of their designs and designers get picked up by someone else like corsair, nzxt, etc.

 

i really love my Mercury S8 and im now wishing i had picked up a few of their other designs while i could have

 

farewell dear friends, you will be missed

 

If they did get picked up by corsair/nzxt/coolermaster etc the cases wouldnt be near the quality of what caselabs produced

May we have a moment to the greatest case manufacturer out on the market is closing their doors.

The "titan for gaming" is called the 1080ti.

But some of those are retailing for MORE than a titan, even if prices have started coming down still seeing $1300 1080TI's or just slightly less than the msrp of the titan at like $1150 as GN put it Damn miners

titan wasn't really for gaming in the first place..

just the best gaming card for 'consumer' 

True but the titan has always been the best of the best card for the consumer at least from nvidia

If Nvidia launches new cards around computex time do you think there will be a new titan for gaming not AI and deep learning? Asking because Im not sure to buy 2 titan Xp's or to wait until well hopefully computex...as for price to performace I really dont care.

What’s wrong with the 6800k, I mean what are you doing that’s so demanding? Unless you just want the threadripper just for the heck of it. Maybe more information about what you are doing 

Blender lots and lots of blender for clients and rendering models for beam.ng drive, and of course games all at 4k.

Currently I have an x99 6800k and two 1080's founders editions, I do have plans to upgrade from the 6800k to a 1900x on thread ripper while also getting a monoblock for the cpu. I don't know if Nvidia is about to drop new cards in a few months if its worth water cooling 1080s at this point I could wait and get all the other watercooling supplies like the res,pump,rads fluid etc and by that time hope cards have dropped and then new water blocks for those cards have been produced. I'm just unsure if to wait or not I know GTC is in a few days but rumor states Nvidia won't be releasing the 2000 series cards there.

No, I'm saying the board should be fine, RMA it to see if it's that if not go back to the drawing board.

Missed the part where you mentioned your board. so never mind about the Ai Suite. that's for Asus boards. Anyway in that utility, there is a option where you can disable power to USB ports or make it sleep when device is not in use.

after updating bios and waiting a bit to see if the problem had disappeared it seems to have gone as i've been watching yt while gaming  must've been the bios update ty

Could your motherboard header be damaged / loose?

possibly? although my signature is outdated as i no longer have a 4770k its now a 6800k and a different board that I've had since march ish which is the x99 gigabyte designaire board could this be a motherboard issue do you think?

I'll describe this the best I can so here goes, Not sure at what point this issue started occurring but randomly my keyboard,mouse, and headset will all just disconnect making that usual windows sound when you unplug something and plug it back in. This occurs while watching youtube which causes the video to freeze and often restarts another ad being played before resuming the video or playing any game no matter how how much the cpu or gpus are being stressed. I've tried going through device manager and updating said drivers (mouse,keyboard headset) and obtaining all the updates from corsair and Logitech to no avail, changing the USB port on the MB and case nope still doing it  IDK whats wrong any suggestions will be greatly appreciated and will be tried

I did try reseating the ram a few time no avail 

All 4 sticks alone managed a post on the left side of the board, but the right side couldn't get shit all 4 sticks are good but the ram slots on the right might be bad or I'm stupid and should have put the ram sticks on the right only if I had 8 sticks

Trying other 3 sticks

Single ram stick in the 3rd slot on the left got post

Single stick turns off then back on, repeatedly until I flip the switch in the back

That's odd because I'm still using the same keyboard from my last setup

I just upgraded my CPU,motherboard ,ram, and cooler the new parts are a 6800k, 4x4 avexier ram dimms, gigabyte designaire x99 MB and the h100i v2 now upon start up I don't get any post I get 6 beeps and a black screen and I'm using my old drives and my 1080s which I've been using for months now without issue I'm thinking it's the ram but I'm not 100%

The Dell 7559 is a much better choice than the ASUS. The U CPUs are not even in the same league as the quad core HQ's, plus you get a 960m. that's all you need for gaming currently. I'd even go for an i5HQ model if you're stretched for cash. 

I wish I could recommend a ThinkPad for that price range, simply cos of the durability. I've dropped mine out of cars, off of a ladder, and even dropped packs on it. Still the same beast its always been, lol.

I was an Aussie ET (electronics technician) in the same situation a few years ago.
Enjoy

this laptop wouldn't be moving too much at all just sitting in my barracks so mobility isn't really much of an issue to me its more of just simply running games, part of my training is ill be going out in the woods for 3 weeks and returning to a different dorm which with my desktop would be a huge inconvenience moving 45 pounds from one dormitory to another(and i don't trust people around here) plus a monitor but i'm going to think on the 7559 before i jump on it, not really stretched for cash because i don't really have any bills to pay lol.

that's a good laptop, but the build quality is not very good. If you aren't moving it much and have a mouse/keyboard to replace the bad one on the laptop. I would at least get a mouse. 

i had my mother ship my headset, mouse and webcam to me already  something i didnt mention in my posts so corsair 1500s and m65 and the logitech c920

was actually looking at this one here as it seems to be pretty popular https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015PYZ0J6/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza
