    Cooking amd 6800s, must watch.

    You may be able to play around with the clock speed and get it to run stable. Maybe when it's under compute work loads the clock speed is lower which allows it to not crash? I had a Vega 56 that would crash in games(but generally not in compute workloads) but if I lowered the clock speed by...

    AM4 PCIE instability with 3090FE and riser cable

    Risers are incredibly flaky in general. I had bought a bunch of the PCIe x16 shielded ribbon risers and x8 shielded ribbon risers on Amazon (highly rated, not inexpensive) for a build with a bunch of RTX 3070's. Turned out about half of them would only function at PCIe 2.0. The machine would...

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2022)

    I bought this game right after release. I was using an older Nvidia driver with my 3070ti and I never had any crashes. At some point the game did an update, and it started crashing with the same driver. I just downloaded the new Nvidia Game Ready driver and it's running at a higher FPS than it...

    The Fractal Design Define 7 XL should hold up to 18 you just have to add the appropriate drive trays. The ones I bought were "Fractal Design FD-A-TRAY-001 HDD Drive Tray Kit - Type-B for Define 7 Series and Compatible Fractal Design Cases - Black". From Fractal's site - "Mount up to 18...

    Will I notice a difference in speed?

    I thought that modem model number looked familiar, it's the one I'm using right now with Spectrum with the following results(this PC is getting its network through a MOCA adapter too which could be slowing it down somewhat)- They had to have changed that support list somewhat recently -...

    Will I notice a difference in speed?

    Either something is way wrong or you're grandfathered in on some old package they no longer offer. Are you able to confirm what speed you're paying for from Spectrum?

    sfsuphysics Account was Compromised.

    There is also the issue of items from a long time ago that someone may not have purchase records for. I have an old AGP Geforce Ti4600 I've thought about posting for anybody that is setting up a retro gaming rig. Surely it would sell for less(inflation adjusted) than it did when it was new...

    WTB - nothing for now

    Bump - I just purchased an EVGA X299 Dark Motherboard and am looking to purchase a CPU for it. The CPU needs to support at least 44 lanes. Something like an i9 9960X would be great, but I'm open to anything if it's a decent price and has 44 or more PCIe lanes. Thanks!

    8th card added and PC won't boot.

    It's a bios setting, but usually it comes into play before you get to that many cards. A lot of boards will POST and give you an "out of resources" message, etc. if it's not enabled. I would definitely try booting with only 7 cards though and go into the bios and check that. It should say...

    8th card added and PC won't boot.

    Those cards that convert a single PCIe x1 slot to 4 x1 slots do not use 4 lanes. They are only using 1 PCIe lane since they are plugged into an x1 slot. They use a PLX switch to make 1 lane work with 4 devices. With that said I'm not sure why the 8th card would make it not POST though so...

    SOLD: Slightly used LG C1 48" OLED - $950 shipped - $900 local, Columbus OH

    🤔 How much for local pickup with cash? (I can PM if more appropriate, but thought it might help other buyers to know what the non shipped price is as well. There are a bunch of Ohio people on the forum)

    Joining Team Ukraine to show support.

    People just try to control what they can control and it's a very minor gesture of showing solidarity with people who just had their country involved in military action. Not really much else people can do other than this and send money to hope it goes to the right places. Regardless of politics...

    Joining Team Ukraine to show support.

    I wasn't aware supporting Ukraine was political but maybe I need to venture more to other parts of the forum. Either way, switched over on Primegrid. Once tour de primes is over I'll switch over to higher PPD sub projects. If you guys decide on a CPU project to run for Ukraine let everybody know.

    mining rigs

    That riser adapter card doesn't require you to have an equal number of PCIe lanes to GPU's - you just need a single lane on that PCIe x1 slot it plugs into. It uses a PLX switch to provide 4 x1 connections on a single x1 slot(at theoretically 1/4 the bandwidth AFAIK if all all 4 devices plugged...

    stinger608 Can you tell us if the password you used at EVGA forums and Heatware was shared anywhere else? Can you enter that password on this website and tell us what the results are - https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords

    Seriously though, if Crosshairs or FrgMstr have the ability to lock out everybody's account and require them to have email access to get back in, or force a password change on next login, now would be the time. Hopefully this doesn't get me banned-
