Finally got around to buying Dolby Atmos for my old Sennheiser HD419 headphones. I played around in the Warzone training area and moved around a loot crate. The difference between Atmos and regular Windows sound is pretty noticeable. I can also tell the difference as I move the crosshair...

Yaaaaay. Pile of garbage finally works!

Move fast. If you see something you like in stock then snag it quick. I just got done building a new rig. Stuff was going out of stock right in front of my eyes. I’d find something nice. After an hour or so of research it would be out of stock or it would be marked up a couple hundred percent...

Everything else was either not worth buying, not in stock, or had its price inflated 200%-300%

Aaaaaand back goes the board.

ARGH new cpu still and it still won’t post. MSI rep said to pull cmos battery for five minutes. I’ve already pulled the battery before but only for about a minute so now I’m doing that again.

I reseated it a third or fourth time. No good. All the pins are good and there’s no physical damage. I put in an RMA on Amazon and ordered a 3600x. It was only an extra 30 bucks.

I also see no bent pins, no burn marks, and no indication of physical external damage. Maybe I just got a dud?

When I first installed the cooler I had a hard time screwing it down. I could tighten two screws on one side but the screws on the other side wouldn’t reach the little posts sticking through. Is it possible to crush one edge of the cpu?

Yeah the red cpu light is coming on.

I pulled off the heat sink and the cpu came with it. nothing looked bent. I reseated the cpu but now trouble light is coming on.

Interesting turn of events...

I’ll try the cpu next

Es I can return pretty much everything still. I’ve only had my parts for about a week.

Pulled CMOS battery again as I never pulled it after the supposedly successful BIOS update. No change.

I pulled out all the ram and powered up. No trouble LEDs light up. I would have thought that the RAM trouble light would come on. The only time the trouble LEDs come on is when the board is powered down. They all flash briefly.

I can’t tell for certain if the board posts. Nothing is sent to monitor and there is no pc speaker for beeps. No trouble LED lights are coming on and no lights on my keyboard are turning on.

I looked and did find a small switch next to the pcie power connectors. I moved it away from the connectors. Nothing changed though. I don’t know if the board is posting. Nothing is sent to the monitor and I don’t have a pc speaker. I’m getting a speaker on Wednesday.

No. I’ll do that next. wouldnt the cpu troubleshoot led light up if there was a cpu problem?

I don’t have any other hardware nor friends. I’m really boned here.

I’m looking at the sound blaster x g6. Would COD Warzone output the simulated surround sound to the g6 or does the g6 create the simulated surround sound from what the game generates?

My laptop is somewhere between four and five years old.

Yeah I tried that but I can't turn on the spatial audio setting for my realtek audio. It's grayed out.

I tried Atmos on my non gaming laptop just to test it out but it doesn't work. Dolby Access keeps telling me "enable dolby atmos to access audio settings". This is the kind of problem I'm trying to avoid.

My needs are good audio with good headphone surround for games like Battlefield and COD. It just needs to be good or slightly better. It doesn't have to be so high quality that it makes grown men cry. Standing external speakers won't work in my space although a 2.1 desktop setup might be in...

Would using something like a Sound Blaster X3 or XG6 be about the same as using a USB headset? The Sound Blaster devices can connect via USB.

I don’t mind learning if it means getting better sounding audio. I will check out some usb sets though.

PC audio, and audio in general, has always eluded me. I’m building a new PC mostly for the new COD Warzone. I’m using an MSI X570 Gaming Edge Wifi with Realtek ALC1220 onboard audio. What exactly do I have to do to get a good headphone surround sound experience? I’ve seen videos mention Dolby...

The Core Edition is newer, slower, and costs $50 more. Can someone help me understand what's going on here? https://www.newegg.com/xfx-radeon-rx-590-rx-590p8dfd6/p/N82E16814150817?Item=9SIA0ZX8H58086 https://www.xfxforce.com/gpus/amd-radeon-tm-rx-590-fatboy-8gb-2 Core...

Thanks for the feedback.

I have an older Seasonic M12D 850W PSU. I'm not sure if it has the correct plugs for an X570 based gaming PC. I'm looking at installing an RX 590 GPU. https://www.newegg.com/seasonic-m12d-ss-850-850w/p/N82E16817151067?Item=N82E16817151067 I'm pretty sure it'll work fine and has all the...

I am selling my Logitech G9X gaming mouse. I have one wide body shell and two slim body shells. The slim shells have never been used. I have a full set of weights plus an extra seven gram weight. No box, books, or discs. The mouse functions perfectly. $135, that includes shipping within...

Ok thank That's not really a back up then. iTunes can actually "back up" my pics and videos right?

I have an iPhone 6 and an iCloud account. All my pictures and videos get uploaded automatically to my iCloud account. I installed iCloud Drive and iCloud Photo on my Windows 10 PC. Right now my PC is downloading all 30ish gigs of pics and videos. Now my questions are -will my PC...

Settle it like everything else is on earth. Whoever has the most guns and ammo makes the rules.

Bought a Savage 22LR rifle for my one year old daughter.
