It may be the "boring" choice, but the Xbox controllers are actually pretty good.

Try installing Fan Control and seeing if that can get them working. https://github.com/Rem0o/FanControl.Releases Also check if you can see where the fan cable connects to the GPU's PCB, whether it looks fully plugged in, or if you can see any damage to the cable.

You can search the classifieds sections for the recent sale prices of items recently sold. E.g. Classifieds - CPU - AMD, then type 5900X in the filter: =5900X"]AMD One just sold on Friday for R 5k: [For Sale] - AMD Ryzen 9 5900X CPU | AMD Then do the same for each part and add them together...

Samsung is a premium brand, so you get nice software with the drive. Hikvision is a budget brand, so you don't.

Yeah it's a pain, sorry :( For future reference, Noctua has detailed lists on its website of which motherboards are compatible with each CPU cooler. It's really in-depth. But yeah with the D-15 most mATX and ITX boards are incompatible because the top PCIe slot uses the case's top-most...

A riser cable will only allow you to move the position of the GPU if you also install a vertical mount. That said, I've been wanting to do an air cooler/vertical GPU mount build for ages, and what I have found is that it's a matter of millimetres. Even with a 120mm air cooler, nevermind a 140mm...

Someone else suggested gamingevolved.co.za. Might be worth a look.

The main way to test a PSU is to draw a heavy power load from it, and generally speaking, the best way to draw a heavy power load is to run a power-heavy workload from the GPU, since it is the most power-hungry component in the system. So crashing under gaming already suggests a crash under high...

Are you sure you remembered to reconnect the CPU power connector from the PSU to the motherboard? Have you tried clearing CMOS (using either the jumper or removing CMOS battery for ~30min)? Are you sure the cooler isn't screwed on too tightly? Have you tried with only one RAM module installed?

Another site that sells prebuilts is Progenix: Progenix - For All Your Computing Needs If you're not sure what to budget, email Progenix, I've bought from them a bunch of times and the owner is not someone who will upsell you in order to make a quick buck - he will give accurate and reasonable...

Well that must be new for version 2024 then. Cinebench has never had a GPU benchmark before. And since it's a brand new GPU benchmark it may be preferable to rather use benchmarks with existing reputations. You're very brave letting a complete stranger whose reputation you can't verify into...

Cinebench doesn't test the GPU. Unigine Heaven and Superposition test the GPU, also TimeSpy etc. Cinebench is CPU only. @Luts_abba this 👆 is the best advice you'll get on this thread.

Genuine question, how did you come across this 6 month old thread? If you want a specific item, go to the classifieds section for that item and create a "wanted" post. That way it'll be visible to people posting in that section.

This wasn't qualifying for the main race though. This was sprint quali. Qualifying for the main race is tomorrow after the sprint. He could still get the record.

Sold, will close when buyer is happy.

Just searched the CPU -> Intel forum for "9700k" and saw one just sold last month for R 2299. https://carbonite.co.za/index.php?forums/intel_cpu/&thread_fields[__keywords]=9700k https://carbonite.co.za/index.php?threads/i7-9700k-cpu.521701/ You can do the same with all the parts, get recent...

Not sure if it's "massive" but not bad for DnB from 27 years ago.

I've bought phones cash and used prepaid only for years now, works out cheaper and much more flexible.

What do you currently have? Maybe keep what you've got for now. If you get the urge to buy a new thing, don't allow yourself to sell the current thing. Force yourself to keep it and save up for the new thing and have both. Knowing yourself, you know that the cycle will repeat, and in six...

There's no such thing as one device that will meet all the gaming needs one could ever have. That's why so many different ones exist.

If that doesn't work you can also try downloading graphics drivers straight from Intel's website (assuming you're using an Intel CPU with iGPU). https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000090440/graphics.html

Cleaning isn't fixing, it's cleaning. Or do you interpret "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" to also mean "if it ain't broke, don't clean it?" I'm which case, remind me to never come to your house.

I take it back, you're right. Idk why but I thought you said you get a discount for leaving a positive review. Giving a discount for any review at all is less dodgy. Like you say, Takealot does it too, sort of.

This is some of the dodgiest shit I've ever heard. Edit: maybe not so dodgy, for some reason in my brain it became "if you leave a positive review."

Strands #40 “You can say that again!” 🟡🔵🔵🔵 🔵🔵🔵🔵 Lol.

Have you tried to reset BIOS/clear CMOS? Some boards have a jumper, else you need to remove the CMOS battery and leave it out for 30 min. Function keys. F1 - F12.

:ROFLMAO: Nah didn't try. I did a bit of a de-RGBification in my life.

No, the KB was Bluetooth or wired only. The issue came when the KB was previously connected to the PC using the built-in BT but then later I added a BT dongle. The PC then wouldn't add the KB as a new device on the dongle because it was already paired - but then refused to connect to the KB. I...

I've had nightmares when trying to run both built-in Bluetooth and a dongle. This was with a keyboard though, not a controller. But I won't try it again with anything.

Does it have to be wireless? If yes, if I'm not mistaken, on Windows the Xbox controller with wireless adapter is your only option to have two separate controllers running at the same time (or X360 controller with X360 dongle). You can't run two Xbox controllers at the same time with...

No idea.

Have you tried Xmods or Bobshop? That's where I would start looking.

Why? As far as I understand that's kind of the plan, let him warm up at Williams before graduating to Merc, the same way George did. Or are you saying he should get the Merc seat immediately?

It's just patience. You have to keep guessing all words you can find until you hit a blue. Sometimes you have to do that multiple times before you figure out the theme. To put it into perspective, some days it'll take me like the whole day, doing 5min at a time whenever I have a break. If you...

I'm very bad at remembering to play and even worse at remembering to post. But if I remember both, I'll share.

In case anyone has missed it, S6 is now on SA Netflix.
