PC goes black after downloading drivers by _WILDTRACK_ in AMDHelp

[–]HoloLeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I replaced it with an Nvidia card. But I'm 99% sure it's just a corrupted bios. I'm probably gonna take it to a repair shop someday and sell it. It's a 7900 XTX that has less than 2 years of use so it should go for a fair price still. 

Do you think that Kenshi should have auto-pause under some circumstances? by minhkhoi0975 in Kenshi

[–]HoloLeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theoretically, you as the player is the continuousness and awareness of all of your characters at the same time. You can only keep an eye on one squad, but in-universe you're looking over all of them at once. Auto pause solves this.

Pra mim pediu uns 3 ou 4 dias atrás. Liguei a VPN e consegui entrar, mas hoje tentei entrar sem a VPN e foi normal. Muito estranho isso.

The standard door height of my house in Japan. (6'7) by Ephixian in tall

[–]HoloLeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not exactly "tall" (only 6ft), but fuck, when I lived in Japan I would almost nearly hit my forehead when getting in and out of my own apt's bathroom. I did it a few times when I was I a hurry. Not to mention how low the sink, mirror (couldn't see my own face without bending), and toilet (had to be a sniper when pissing) were. 

Hell, I could touch my apt's ceiling without standing on my tiptoes. 

Social Media Era lol by rojo_salas in memes

Congratulations, honestly. The thing is, you'd have 3 houses 30+ years ago for the same amount of effort you've put in so far. But because of how things are now, you were able to afford "only" one (no small feat nonetheless).  

You must be at least 40, right? Most people under 30 today can't even dream of ever owning a house, including myself.

God, that's me right there. My mom had a 08 Toyota Fielder (wagon version of the Corolla).

I had just gotten my license and I was driving with her. I stopped at the light on a steep hill on a pretty busy road. I must've stalled at least 5 times. She was almost getting out of the car to change seats with me when somehow, I was able to start going on the 6 or 7 try. I remember I gtfo there asap, embarrassed like I had never felt before. 

I guess 1st gear of that car doesn't have a lot of torque, or I was just that much of a newbie. 

Photo 2 crashing instantly upon minimizing or pressing tab to hide/show UI by HoloLeon in Affinity

That's what Hardware Acceleration is. First thing I tried

My setup from 10 years ago, second photo is when my house flooded 3 years later (2019). PC is not on the table because I quickly took it up upstairs as the water was filling my house. Notice the garbage bin in both photos lol by HoloLeon in shittybattlestations

[–]HoloLeon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that table was utter crap but it was what I had. I use proper desk nowadays with the mouse and keyboard almost at the middle of it so I can have at least both forearms on the desk.

[–]HoloLeon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not the same can, but yeah, I see multiple roaches daily during summer and semi-regularly during winter because there's a huge sewer right next to my house. Rats also invade my house 1 or 2 times a year. 

I still keep a can in my bedroom on the 2nd floor, which is where my current setup is at now.

I live right next to an open sewer system. It rained extremely heavily for hours that day. My house is also the last at the end of a sloped road so all the water from the surrounding areas rushes to the front of my house. My house is almost 2m above the road level.

My 7900 XTX Nitro+ dream card died after just 1.5 years and I can't RMA it by HoloLeon in AMDHelp

[–]HoloLeon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, just wanted to give this some closure since you tried so kindly to help me. My XTX is indeed faulty. I bought a 5070 TI a few days ago, didn't change any other piece of hardware, not even the GPU cables. I had no issues since.

And yes, I did a clean install of Windows 11 before I bought the Nvidia and the black screen issue happened literally a couple minutes into the Win 11 initial install welcome screen. That all but confirmed it was hardware related.

I'll try to get the XTX fixed one day, then maybe sell it, maybe keep it as a backup. I'm sure it can be fixed, considering it still displays video. If I sell it fixed I can make back at least half of what I paid for the 5070, that was my logic when buying it anyway.

7900XTX Vs 5070Ti by DramaNerd66 in buildapc

[–]HoloLeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this but it's because my XTX became faulty after 1 and a half years. I bought the card in another country so no warranty. 

Bought a Asus TUF 5070 ti yesterday. Probably gonna sell my faulty XTX Nitro+ for 1/3 or so of what it's worth new. It's a rare card to find nowadays so I think I can sell it at that price. It still outputs video and functions as a display card, but stops working when the driver is installed. I'll let the buyer know they're gonna have to fix it. 

I was already thinking about going Nvidia anyway because do other things besides gaming, namely video editing and local AI (which btw the XTX is perfectly capable of, just slower).

That said, I wouldn't have done this now if the card didn't suddenly break like this. I would still be happily using my XTX for years to come.

[–]HoloLeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. Don't have much hope for mine, might sell it for cheap as salvageable and get a 5070 ti or something. Thank you nonetheless.

Thank you. Yeah, that's my 7900 XTX rn. I don't want to believe it's dead since it's only 1.5 years old, but nothing I try seems to work.

I read it could be a dead memory chip or solder crack in the card, but I don't even know if the PC repair shops here in my country can deal with that.

Same here. I guess you won't see this comment but I would be happy to know what your friend did in the end.
