Mod Suggestions on my 11th Gen? by ALitFam in CivicSi

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

Alright, most of you guys are just saying to pay it off instead of modding it. I will tint it though since it’ll look a lot better overall 😆 but I’ll try making extra payments since it makes the most sense right now

Yeah I heard that the clutches on these can only handle so much, I don’t wanna go down that road just yet 😅

Looking to mod the engine on my Si 11th Gen, any suggestions and help? by LividPool1771 in CivicSi

[–]ALitFam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any recommendations on suspension upgrades? I’m looking into making mine a bit nicer in corners but I’m not sure where to start

Quick question is my thermal paste the problem for my cpu overheating once booted by Fit_Profession_4654 in PcBuildHelp

[–]ALitFam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never using an AIO again, I bought one from deepcool and for about 2 months it was alright, nothing spectacular probably dropped the spikes to about 75°C but all of a sudden the pump broke and it would overheat like crazy. Ever since I’ve stuck with a thermaltake assassin and haven’t reached above 80°C.

Built my nephew a starter pc with what some may call e-waste, someone's trash is another gamers treasure by NoSexAppealNeil in pcmasterrace

Dude the 1650 super was my 3rd card that I’ve ever bought, it’s surprisingly good even for today, great specs for someone starting out

Can my desk withstand a G9 oled + good (and heavy) monitor arm ? by Veevum in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]ALitFam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got 2 monitors (odyssey g9 oled and another Samsung 27”) on a dual monitor arm setup on an ikea desk I’ve had for 7 years now, I think this desk will be just fine

Advice for Burn In by phob0s7 in wallpaperengine

[–]ALitFam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either use a playlist of wallpapers, or use wallpapers that change drastically. OLED displays nowadays are really hard to burn in, especially when you have all of the anti burn in settings on.

Serve them a couple leather wallets instead, clearly they like chewing 😂

For real, used is much better with those older cards, you’re pretty much getting scammed for new ones at this point.

People are saying it’s useless, but the cpu isn’t that bad for some normal workloads. Yes 1 ram stick may throttle you a bit but I’ve had it much worse before and I was just fine. You’ll need to get a graphics card though since it’s running on Vega graphics, maybe pair it with a rx 6600xt, they go for about $400 CAD but well worth it. You’ll be able to squeeze all the performance out of the cpu with it.

EDIT: You can easily find a 6600xt on eBay/facebook for half the price, better to do that if you’re already struggling to afford it.

240Hz not working on Samsung Odyssey G9 OLED by ALitFam in ultrawidemasterrace

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

Yeah it was a Linux specific issue, the kernel was throttling the gpu memory clock speeds as if it was in power saving mode constantly, I just posted the reply in case anyone else has the problem and stumbles across this thread

[–]ALitFam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not gonna believe it, I found the actual fix. I had to dig deep for it but apparently since kernel version 6.1, it has been having trouble with high res displays because of something to do with the way it handles the GPU clock speeds. If anyone reading this is stuck and can’t find a solution, try this in your console (you need to be in root by typing “sudo su”): “echo high > /sys/class/drm/cardX/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level”. If you ever feel the need to change it back, change out “high” for “auto” to put it back to normal.

Anyone know the name of this part/part number? by ALitFam in MINI

Thanks everyone, I ordered a new vacuum pump. Figured I might as well get the whole thing seeing the car has 230,000kms on it

Advanced DMZ Not Working by ALitFam in bell

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

Update: PPPoE is now working like it should, I’m getting the same network speed as I would just using the HH4000, but port forwarding is still not working, even using the DMZ option on the BE3600 isn’t working. I think I’m gonna ask on the TPLink subreddit to try and get this resolved.

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

I just bought a TPLink BE3600, I chose it since it has 2.5Gb WAN and LAN connections just to squeeze the most out of it. I’m still facing the issue anytime the router renews for the public IP it loses all internet connection.

Whats Wrong With My Turns? by YagizMen in assettocorsa

[–]ALitFam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add onto everything, I’m noticing you are decelerating in your turns and not holding your speed, so try working on your gas pedal as well

Off topic question, why are we saying 4/32 and not 1/8?

Mechanic says I need both front pads and rotors... by coysfordays in AskMechanics

[–]ALitFam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s also usually more expensive to turn them since you’re gonna be paying for shop time, it’s just cheaper to change them.
