Windows is pissing me off. My pc (gaming or backup) hosts my jellyfin collection and the service. Monthly, or even more often, Windows will restart which I assume is for an update. But sometimes I feel like it wants to restart just to fuck with me. Anyways, when it does, it goes to the login...

As the title says, I am looking for a new monitor to replace the Dell S2719DGF I have. Its a solid 27" 1440 TN panel that I bought 7 years ago. Being that TN panels are long in the tooth, I decided to do some market research for a new one. Requirements: 27", 1440p PC Gaming and Windows...

This post is part sale, part give away For sale is a Linksys Mesh WiFi 6 Router LN3111-AMZ router. It works perfectly with no issues and has AX3000 speeds. My fios plan is 300 up/down and I easily got that via wifi. I am selling it because for Fios mesh to work properly, all routers in the mesh...

I have been a long time buyer of season tickets and I live hours away from Blacksburg so no way can I attend them all. Since tickets are from a season ticket set, they come with a premium seat cushion + backing for a much more enjoyable gameday experience. I am selling 2 tickets at: 50 yard...

I live in a split level home and the outside ethernet comes into the lower level which plugs into the Fios G3100. My plan is 300 up/down. My budget phone on the lower level gets great speeds, about 250 up/down. Upstairs, it gets a respectable 120 up/down. Moving to the back of the house, the...

My PC has been working just fine for the last year or 2 whenever I made it. It is not overclocked/voltaged in any way, completely stock. Yesterday, it completely craps the bed. I am web browsing in windows, no games on, and I leave the pc for a few minutes. I come back and the monitor can't find...

So I just put my htpc behind a wall (pics later) and I still can get hdmi/power to it via cables. Wifi, bluetooth, usb receiver work great. I can still access the pc, but I have to pull back the mini fridge (wheeled) and remove a wall panel. Fine if I have to install a part, not fine if I have...

So this really bugs me about the Adrenaline drivers. They constantly, and I mean repeatedly, ignore the custom fan profile I set. I do it as global, its reset. I do a saved game profile, its reset. I turn it off completly (don't use any custom tuning), and its reset. I have the latest 24.12.1...

So I built a gaming pc for a friend so he could enjoy his iRacing properly. He was previously playing on old laptop that made my DX66 look good (see OldMan.png). I recommended him a very nice flat OLED gaming tv Samsung S90D that has everything he could possibly want. What does he do? Ignores my...

This means I am very good in Halo Infinite. ty that is all

I have a fractal design C in my home office. Suppose perps break in, how can I prevent my PC from going with them? They make security cables, but I'm not sure how to attach that to a case nor how effective they actually are. And would I attach it to a stud?

I have for sale a somewhat modified Thermaltake Core P3 ATX case, noctua cooler, cables, and wall VESA mount. It's capable of being mounted onto your wall as opposed to a tower underneath your desk, but it can stand upright if you want. I originally bought this to hide the pc downstairs. It...

I am restoring backed up files between and old and new Windows installation, and the transfer speeds couldn't be slower. I'm talking about like 500 kb/s. I did two different transfers from both NVMEs: Transfer 1: WDS to SN850 Backup folder, 24GB large at 668K files Transfer 2: SN850 Folder A...

On a personal level, this sucks. They and Toms (back when Toms was good) were the go to sites that got me interested in computers. But the last decade or so has not been kind to them, with their gpu/cpu reviews increasing irrelevant. Still, it's a shame to see a titan go...

This isn't a sale thread, just curious about upgrade feasibility. If I wanted to sell my backup Ryzen 5700x, there are tons of people on amd4 socket that would buy it as an upgrade. But if I upgrade to the upcoming 9000 series, I would need to sell my 7700x. But what's the market for that? If...

So I sold my reference 7900xtx and bought a thick boy sapphire omg wtf jfc oc one. This fucker is huge, quad slot. I measured before I bought it, I just measured wrong. Now the middle case fan can't fit. How can I make the middle fan fit?

Sold to a local college kid for $750 I have for sale my reference AMD Radeon 7900 XTX. It plays all games at 1440 on max settings, easily crushing the 120fps cap I set in the settings (AMD Chill). I am selling it because I just got a thickboy 7900xtx for a great price. It has never been...

BTC is at an all time high right now, thats why I just sold. Several articles said that after the halving, the new price should be in the $40s. Invest then? Whats peoples general impression of BTC right now?

I think a whole forum dedicated to Crypto would be beneficial to the members. Theres always bitcoin talk around here (HODL???) so may as well put it in one place

So no idea why this is happening all of a sudden. I've used Chrome for years, and I've had this pc for the past 12+ months. Chrome is crashing my pc. It's random, and seems to happen when I click on a link or open a tab. I know its Chrome because I'll do a chrome action, then shit starts to get...

In my previous 6700XT, i set to hotspot temp and noise levels werent terrible. With the 7900xtx, when the hotspots are around 90C, it turns into a lawnmower. It's not defective, its just super loud. I am trying the undervolt game so TBD on that. What do you guys do? Set the fan curve to core...

I have an Asus TUF X670E and the wifi module sucks. It crashes all the time, forcing me to keep Device Manager perpetually open so I can disable it and enable it. Maybe its hardware, but to me seems like software since the fix is a software one. The wifi module is RZ608 Wi-Fi 6E 80mhz. The...

I have a reference AMD 7900XTX that works perfectly well, just a bit on the loud side. I am willing to trade it for an ASRok Taichi or Sapphire Nitro 7900XTX because those triple and quad cards have much better thermals/cooling. Let me know if you want to offer something!

I recently bought a used EVGA 3080 FTW Ultra and at around 40-50% pwm, I often hear this grinding noise. I know its coming from the gpu because when I manually turn the fans down to 0, the fans stop, and the noise goes away. I put the fans at 20% or 70% and the noise also goes away. Only around...

So I just bought this EVGA RTX 3080 FTW3 ULTRA from a fellow [H] and I have no reason to believe he did me a dirty. The problem is that it is getting terrible FPS. In Horizon Zero Dawn, TechPowerUp has the 2080ti getting 75 FPS at ultra settings at 1440. So my 3080 should get at least that, and...

I have for sale my MSI Geforce 1080ti GamingX that I bought from fellow [H] terpsy in late 2022. He said he was the 2nd owner, so I am the 3rd owner. It has never been abused, mined, etc.. It sat in my HTPC and got light usage, truly a pampered life. Comes with all the original red plugs too...

I have a Corsair RMx 750x and I recently bought a 3080 that comes with a triple power connector (3 connectors of 2x8 pin). For all previous cards (including my 7900xtx), they have used a double connector of 2x8pin. I always thought that since the PCIe cable comes with that double head at the...

So for my hanging case build, I need right angle HDMI dongle extension because its a much cleaner look. I have tried a few on Amazon (Poyiccot) but I keep getting flickering. The cables clearly suck. The issue is that there doesn't seem to be any reliable brands. What does [H] use? EDIT: Ok I...

I am looking to upgrade from my 1080ti for 1440 gaming on my HTPC. Looking for non-reference 3070/3070ti/6800/6800xt. Willing to pay around $300-400, depending on the card. also, local to NOVA feel free to pm. thanks all!

I am building an open air case for downstairs and it has to hang on the wall. The reason is that the wires go straight to my tv, and everything is behind the wall and off the floor. I originally got what I thought was a low profile be quiet! BK031 Dark Rock TF 2, and it is somewhat low profile...

Hey peeps, So the wifey has a hand written calendar on the fridge, and I want to surprise her with a digital calendar, one that syncs to gmail etc.. I see Skylight makes a great solution, but it has to be plugged in at all times. I hate dealing with cables, and especially a cable on the fridge...

A lot of people are obsessed with 5.1, 7.1, directional audio every which way, and I get that, that's what I use my headphones for. But my Logitech Z5500s are for music only. Here, I want the same sound coming out of all 5 speakers. Nothing positional, just a 'dumb' feed, that I am surrounded...

So my Thermaltake Core P3 build is going well, I am almost done. The last thing I want is to really hide the power cables coming from the bottom of my psu. Is there like a funnel shroud or something I can install over it? I googled it, but they were all for internal cases. I'll be installing the...

So I am building a Thermaltake Core P3 and I like the placement of the cpu/gpu/psu. Its significantly slimmer of a full fat gpu riser, and since it's wall mounted and an outside case, I don't need that extra cpu fan to cool the 65W Ryzen 5600x. The issue is that the cylinder stands that the...

So I have a Thermaltake Core P3 that I am wall mounting. I want to make it as slim as possible, so I want to mount the GPU where the non-existing AIO would go. The mounting hardware I can solution through easily enough, but the PCI riser cable is vexing me. I know they make cables that are for...

Strange move. Why limit to MC? Seems like on Amazon/Neweggs these would sell like hotcakes. Still, kinda dumb to release a processor like a year+ after the previous one. And only $50 less? I would gladly pay $50 more for 2 cores and 4 threads...

Hmmm this interests me greatly. I had a 6700K that I delidded and was able to do a massive OC of 700mhz. Now obviously, the Ryzens wont be able to do that, but the temp drop does make me really excited. My question is: how to delid? With my 6700K, I got a rockitcool guide that made it super...

Absolutely nothing to upgrade over, but cool that Noctua are including them for free in all future purchases. And I do question the part below where this will lead to higher boost clocks or reduced fan/noise levels. 3C is not anything anyone will notice Cost is 'symbolic price'...

So I normally don't upgrade after only one generation, but an absolute sir here on [H] (sketch) was willing to sell me his ref 7900xtx for $825 shipped. I found this price to be fair, being that the venerable 1080ti was in the $700-$800 range and this was several years ago. Test Setup: Ryzen 7...

So wtf? 4k OLED 120hz tvs have been around for a year or three. Yet not a single one of them are 27". They all are 42" at the smallest. When will the gaming monitors with these specs come out?
