  1. no, i keep the inside of my pc as dust free as possible so I don't think that was the cause of the problem, however it could very well have been related to heat. I have never overclocked the gpu before, and it wasn't any hotter in my room than normal today when it died.
  2. no, i didn't see what the temp/load was at the crash
  3. the gpu didnt work in another computer either, so atleast we've narrowed the problem down to the gpu. Funnily enough, i was actually about an hour into minecraft (first time playing since forever ago), which is a cpu intensive game.
  4. just tried it in another pc, different monitor, different cable, same problem. But atleast I know the gpu IS the issue. Ill try reapplying the thermal paste. hopefully i have some extra lying around.
  5. So earlier today, I was just chilling playing some games when all of a sudden I get a static screen, a buzz, and my pc shuts off. when i try to turn it back on, the pc boots back up just fine, except my monitor wont display anything and basically acts like its not plugged in. The gpu's fans still spin up, but it doesnt seem to be outputting an image. heres a list of everything ive tried: Tested the monitor on a different pc, it works tried the other DVI port on the card tried plugging the gpu into a different slot tried soaking the gpu in bleach (jk) all of this to no avail. I'm going to try plugging the gpu into a different PC, but are there any thing else i can do to determine if this gpu is dead? this is the first time this has ever happened, the gpu is ~2 years old, and is an AMD r9 270 (msi oc edition). the rest of my specs are in my signature.
  6. emergersh those headphones look so sexy definitely my new favorite product in thier lineup
  7. So I need an HDMI to VGA converter for presentations at my office (because my lappy only has hdmi, and what do you know, even the highest end office still uses freaking VGA ), so I looked around on amazon and newegg, and surprisingly nothing really popped out to me as being any kind of mid-high quality, pretty much all of it seemed like cheap junk from china/hong kong, or overpriced junk that is still from china or hong kong. So i was wondering if anyone could help me out here, maybe you have one that you bought in the past that you KNOW will not fail; because here's the deal: presentations and meeting cost alot of money, and if one of these converters fails on me, im completely screwed. so I really need something that will 100% garunteed NOT malfunction or simply not work. Price is not too much of an issue, but obviously I'm not going to pay alot of money for something that may or may not work 100% for a long long time. I know its something quite simple, but I can't run the presentation without it so i need something that i know will work. thanks for the help!
  8. OMG, Linus, you are the man.... thanks so much to you and all the LMG members for this epic giveaway, I so excited for the new video platform and i cant wait to see what the future holds for you and your team.

  9. In the past i would definitely recommend a V300, great value for the money, infact i have one myself, but now that they changed the Nand flash type to a much cheaper and less reliable type, its not nearly as fast or reliable, so i would reccomend looking elsewhere. Samsungs always a good bet as others have said
  10. i actually really hope apple succeeds with this. would be pretty cool to have a tech company have a monopoly over several industries like this, and it's the first really innovative move they've taken in a while
  11. well.... this is slightly disturbing... if you REALLY like zomberts and want to freak out your friends when they come over, good luck with that whoever actually buys this
  12. doesnt he already? dangit linus, did you fire him AGAIN?
  13. Luke should work for HardwareCanucks. He hits hard loved the review, very critical, you hit all the right points. good job as always luke
  14. yep, it happened. in under a month, the pump has started malfunctioning (and by malfunctioning, i mean stopped spinning up AT ALL). on startup, the pump shows 0 RPM, leaving the cpu to heat up to 80+ degrees, as its just being passively cooled by the block. i usually shut off my pc immediately if i see this happening. it only happens on startup tho. After a few restarts it usually starts working tho, and is completely fine until i shut off the computer. then it happens next time i turn it on.thankfully, im still within amazons return window, so i can get a refund. Im very dissapointed in cooler master's low manufacturing quality of this product, they obviously have some issues they need to work out. Not sure what ill get in its place, perhaps the seidon as you said, or maybe the noctua dh-14? Time for me to start researching
  15. Yeah, those reviews are a bit worrying :unsure: I'll keep it for now, but I'll have to watch it closely. if I get even a hint that it's malfunctioning, I'll rip it out of there faster than you can say LinusTechTips yeah, i've never OC'd before, but how hard could it be? will probably do that tomorrow when i have some free time
  16. I hope you enjoy my latest review of the Glacer 240L from cooler master as much as I enjoyed making it! Pricing and availability: Amazon: http://goo.gl/8cxL6u Newegg: http://goo.gl/p73bCh
  17. for me, it was probably MLB the Show '07 back when we had a playstation 2, i was only like, 10 or so but i think minecraft was the game that really got me into PC gaming. i dont know how many hours ive put into that game
  18. he is trying to post in the 1M sub giveaway thread im assuming.
  19. Thankyou Linus and all the LTT team for all your hard work throughout the years, as a youtuber myself i really appreciate all the effort you guys have put into this, and i wish you the best from the bottom of my heart <3
  20. best ad spot ever in this one: and i enjoyed this one from jay: thx for the giveaway guys, and good luck to all!
  21. ok i recorded a quick sound test for ya, i had to use my blue snowball (H4n was having issues) but i turned the gain way up in audacity https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_QPrIiqLB62ZlZ1S3ZLejBFMjA/edit?usp=sharing
  22. as i said, I cant hear the stock fans at 100% (have them plugged into the fan hub) with it sitting right next to me on my desk, if i put my ear right on it i can, but the loudest thing is my CPU (stock cooler ) i could do a sound test with my H4n if you like.
  23. Ever since i took it out of the box this case has done nothing but impress me. i love the clean design and the build quality is outstanding, and with all the fans spinning 100% i cant even hear it sitting right next to me on my desk. enjoy the review!
