  1. Question Problem with Be Quiet Silent Wings Pro 4 120mm

    The only pin difference between 3 and 4 pin fans is the presence of the 4th PWM pin. The shared pins are ground, 12v/5v, and tachometer (senses RPMs). When a fan controller is connected to a 3 pin fan the controller will vary the voltage between 5v and 12v to get to the commanded RPM. Using...
  2. Question SSD and 10GbE throughput of Gigabyte Z390 Xtreme

    Looking at the Realtek chipset fact sheet, jumbo frames up to 16k are supported. Try downloading Realtek's drivers? https://www.realtek.com/en/component/zoo/category/network-interface-controllers-10-100-1000m-gigabit-ethernet-usb-3-0-software At the bottom there is a Mac OS download link.
  3. Question SSD and 10GbE throughput of Gigabyte Z390 Xtreme

    It seems like you've done everything right. For the 2 minute transfer (waaaay slower than 1Gbps), was the transfer rate consistent across that time? Looking at the customer reviews for your 2.5GbE adapter, you aren't the only one having trouble with consistency. Someone mentioned installing a...
  4. Question SSD and 10GbE throughput of Gigabyte Z390 Xtreme

    Please confirm you used that correct "B" there at the end. 1GB/s (byte) translates to 8Gb/s (bit). Exceeding the 2.5Gb rating of that adapter. Also confirm what kind of transfer this is. Is it a lot of small files? Or very large files?
  5. Question SSD and 10GbE throughput of Gigabyte Z390 Xtreme

    Most people using higher speed networking would connect via a switch capable of those higher speeds. But direct connections between PCs (and I think Macs) is possible. If this is what you have done, but are still seeing 1Gb/s speeds, its possible that the ethernet cable you are using is not up...
  6. Question SSD and 10GbE throughput of Gigabyte Z390 Xtreme

    What kind of switch or router are you using? It doesn't matter that the adapters and NICs are rated for 2.5GbE or 10GbE if the switch/router they are connected to is only capable of 1GbE. Based on what you've said, it sounds like you have a 1GbE capable switch/router. In regards to the...
  7. Question UPS replacement battery only lasted 2.5 yrs?

    I was thinking a bit more, particularly about when I was a teen thru early 20's living at my parent's house. I'm just speculating here, but does mains power quality affect the life span of a UPS's battery? And/or the frequency it falls back to the battery? The power at my parent's house is...
  8. Question UPS replacement battery only lasted 2.5 yrs?

    I feel like 2.5 years is quite short. I admit I'm not good about remembering to test my 3 Cyberpower UPS's as often as I should. But when I do remember they all pass their self test. One has a 3 year old battery (the UPS itself is 13 years old) and the other two have their OG batteries from 9...
  9. Keyloggers

    Beelink makes mini PCs that are sometimes on sale for under $150. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09ZLF6HP6 But you know what else is usually under $150? The majority of small Chromebooks. If you've never used Chrome OS before, out of the box it is literally just a Chrome browser and nothing else...
  10. Keyloggers

    First, even if the VM doesn't get infected the host PC is infected and anything you type will be logged since the keyboard is connected to the host PC. But, to answer your question, it depends on a couple things. What virtualization/memory isolation features your CPU has. And how...
  11. Question Testing a sata drive bay

    I have a hard time believing that two drives would fail in the same bay. It might be worth connecting those "bad" drives directly to your computer to double check that they are actually bad. With a different SATA cable. It is possible that the SATA cable for that bay has gone bad. I had...
  12. Question PC not booting/Doesnt POST/Blackscreen unless CMOS is reset in which case it only boots into BIOS

    Since the Ryzen 1600 isn't explicitly on the compatibility list, I'm thinking that is what is going on.
  13. Question Binning and Yields question

    Currently, I would say it would remain constant, within a margin of error. The raw wafer, sure, is uniform. But, post lithography, the outer regions are less perfect since they are off axis from the UV/EUV source. But, you are correct that Intel doesn't use the same dies across product lines...
  14. Question PC not booting/Doesnt POST/Blackscreen unless CMOS is reset in which case it only boots into BIOS

    Might as well try version 2006. But I'm also wondering if simply reflashing the latest version would have worked just as well.
  15. Question Binning and Yields question

    @SK10H - LTT got to tour Intel's Israel fab.
  16. Question Binning and Yields question

    Sample size of 2, so take this with a grain of salt. I got my last CPU, a Ryzen 2700X, late in the 2000 series' life cycle. It did not perform any better than the benchmarks I saw at its launch. Single threaded or multi-threaded. Same with my current CPU, a Ryzen 5900X. I bought it new, but...
  17. Question Binning and Yields question

    In a word: Yes. In more than a word: The KS is the better bin. Intel knows its the better bin and charges a premium for it. On the AMD side, the X SKU's are the better bins. The Ryzen 9 SKUs with higher boost clocks are the better bins. AMD and Intel are onto us overclockers. The jig is...
  18. Question Binning and Yields question

    I SERIOUSLY doubt that the v/f data would ever be made public. That seems like something that would be a very closely held secret by any foundry. It is my understanding that the best dies from a wafer are those in the center (this applies to CPUs, GPUs, and RAM). And those center dies are...
  19. Question PC not booting/Doesnt POST/Blackscreen unless CMOS is reset in which case it only boots into BIOS

    Also, have you tried putting this new SSD in another computer? To eliminate the SSD as the source of the problem? If it is the CPU/MOBO, putting the SSD in another computer should result in it booting and completing the Windows install. If the problem follows to this other computer then the...
  20. Question PC not booting/Doesnt POST/Blackscreen unless CMOS is reset in which case it only boots into BIOS

    I had much longer post written up, but I noticed that the Ryzen 1600 is not on that motherboard's supported list. But that doesn't explain how it had worked prior, or at all really...
  21. Question PC not booting/Doesnt POST/Blackscreen unless CMOS is reset in which case it only boots into BIOS

    When you installed the OS, were there any prompts about whether it was a GPT or MBR partition you were installing to? If you have CSM off, the partition MUST be GPT. If it is MBR then CSM must be on.
  22. Question random restart just happened while gaming... what logs do I check?

    Is your PC overclocked? This sounds like an unstable overclock to me.
  23. Question PC not booting/Doesnt POST/Blackscreen unless CMOS is reset in which case it only boots into BIOS

    Go into your BIOS and try disabling legacy compatibility (often called CSM).
  24. Question Are dimms no longer held in with tabs on both ends???

    I have a MSI X370 board, an Asus X470 board, and an Asrock B450 board. All 3 have the "bottom" tabs fixed. When I built the first one on the X370 board I was also confused. But I've come to prefer it since it is sort of like a guide or anchor when slotting in RAM.
  25. Question VRM Efficiency of Gigabyte Z790 Aero G

    RAM, south bridge/chipset, USB controllers, onboard audio, networking controllers (even if unplugged). Also, for your load calculation you are assuming that the rest of the system stays at 21W. Even with the small PPT Prime95 load, your RAM is still being used and will draw more power. And...
  26. Question What's the slowest CPU you have tortured in your history of personal computing?

    I can't remember specific models. I worked for the Geek Squad in the mid 00's driving out to people's homes. I remember that any time I saw "Intel Celeron" on their PC that my appoints ran waaay over. 10-15 minutes to boot into Windows. Just opening file explorer took a minute or two...
  27. Question Gskill DDR5 6000 Overclock to 1T CL28 and fine tuned voltages and timings.

    Much learning about PBO on Ryzen 5000 is occurring. I will post some updated numbers Monday or Tuesday. Some early results: new PBO settings + manual RAM OC Time Spy CPU: 15403 vs 14704 CB R23 MT: 21914 vs 21050
  28. Question Gskill DDR5 6000 Overclock to 1T CL28 and fine tuned voltages and timings.

    I learned a few things quantifying my results. The 5900X responds a bit differently than the 2700X to PBO. Which was the last CPU I owned, but on this same Asus board. I got some weird regressions with PBO enabled, by itself and with my manual RAM OCing. Maybe some sort of package power...
  29. Question Networking for Dummies

    Is your ethernet configured for a static IP or for DHCP? If static, set the ethernet interface's config back to DHCP and tell us what the IP is. Something you are expecting (192.168.x.x)? Or 169.254.x.x? If the latter, that means the interface may have died.
  30. Question Random Shutdowns

    I second In2Photos suggestion. 70*C in BIOS is not normal. Modern motherboards put a light load on the CPU while in BIOS for exactly this type of situation. To expose potential cooling issues. From my experience, 40-50*C while in BIOS is closer to normal. If you are using an air cooler...
  31. Question PC crashing when approaching/exceeding 50% ram usage

    Oh, another thing came to mind. The memory controller on the Ryzen 1000/2000 series wasn't particularly strong. Especially with more than 16GB of memory. Increasing the voltage to just the SoC may help.
  32. Question PC crashing when approaching/exceeding 50% ram usage

    When I first got into manual RAM overclocking I found memtest86 to be unreliable at detecting errors. I, and a lot of manual RAM OCers, use "Ram Test" by Karhu Software (not free). But OCCT (free) now has a dedicated memory stress test. Try that instead of memtest86.
  33. Question Networking for Dummies

    Open an admin command prompt and use this command. netsh winsock reset Reboot afterwards. It should clear any hidden network settings. When I converted my garage into an additional room I temporarily connected my computers via WiFi while I made the cable runs. When I finished wiring up all...
  34. Question Windows 11 "You'll need to provide administrator permission to ..."

    Check what user owns the folder(s) for your desktop. C:\Users\<your username>\Desktop If you are not the owner, that would explain why you get those prompts. From your post, this ONLY happens on the desktop and not other folders.
  35. Question Gskill DDR5 6000 Overclock to 1T CL28 and fine tuned voltages and timings.

    When I get a chance this weekend, I will run some CPU limited benchmarks and games and post the results. Full mobo defaults, XMP only, PBO only, my manual RAM OC, manual RAM OC + PBO.
  36. Question Gskill DDR5 6000 Overclock to 1T CL28 and fine tuned voltages and timings.

    We are few and far between, but some of us still manually overclock RAM. Most people just apply the XMP/EXPO profiles and call it a day. Proper, stable, RAM overclocking manually is suuuuuper time intensive. But if you selected the right RAM (pretty much anything Samsung B-Die for DDR4), then...
  37. Question 2023 upgrade...

    He said disk 2. The HP NVMe drive. Currently his F drive. It's possible it came from the factory formatted with those partitions. The EFI partition is essential if the OS boots from that drive, which doesn't currently appear to be the case with the HP drive. If you decide to go through with...
  38. Question My computer is unstable/crashes during heavy loads

    Didn't someone else in another thread have problems with their XFX 7900XTX (maybe it was an XT)? They ended up having to RMA the card, but initially thought it was power supply related. Edit: Yep. I remembered correctly. XFX 7900XT reference card...
  39. Official Playstation 5 thread

    While I do care about controller longevity, my #1 reason for wanting hall effect sticks on my PS5 controller (or any controller) is the almost non-existent dead zone in the center. My coworker has a modded steam deck with hall effect sticks and *chef's kiss* they're a joy to use. So much...
  40. Question CompactFlash vs SD (Secure Digital)

    If this was a newer device, I would say SD all the way. Newer SD cards have much higher throughput and, more importantly as an OS disk, decent random IOPs. But for an older card reader using older SD cards, I think CF had a significant advantage compared to early SD cards.
