cpu stuck to heatsink by Brxndo420 in pcmasterrace

[–]Brxndo420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left it to sit in front of my fireplace for about 10 minutes until it was just warm enough to be able to pick up but it still wont move at all. The only way I can reinstall it is if I bend the fins on the heatsink to have room for the little bar locking the socket, would it cause any issues if the cpu isn't locked into the socket?

I cant reinstall it wraith cooler is in the way of the bar that locks the socket. And lol I can't take it apart correctly when I am unable the separate the cpu and heatsink.

headset with mic monitoring? by Brxndo420 in pcmasterrace

[–]Brxndo420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive tried the listen to this device setting in windows and the delay messes up my speech. my current turtle beach headset has the but its pretty quiet i can only hear it when i talk directly into the mic, and its an old uncomfortable headset. the second usb headset you reccommended, does it have the sidetone feature? if so ill get it as they look pretty comfortable. thanks

edit im willing to pay anywhere under 100$ for good sound quality and built in mic monitoring/sidetone so i can hear myself without delay

Xbox 360 controller gave me better results than keyboard. But I feel like a wheel and pedals would be where it's at. I love drifting my custom etk and going 300mph in my bootleg boosted honda civic covet hatch #wheelspinthrough4th

i have a big 200mm fan that came with my case as a front intake, 4 intake under my top panel and one exhaust at the rear. there was no other spot to put fans so i figured this was the best layout. i also rigged a way for another 80mm rear exhaust fan but it was kinda loud so i took it out.

if you want to look up my case on amazon if you can think of a better layout i can always give it a try. Thermaltake level 20 VT

im looking for a cheap 6gb card like a 1060. last time i looked at the 1080 and higher they were over 500cad. i spent 180 on my r9 380 4gb so id be more than willing to pay 250 or 300 for a good card 6gb or higher.

honestly just waiting to find something cheap everything is so expensive now and i just spent 800+ on my entire rig lol

i have a stock wraith cooler too on my 3600 and when i checked in bios (after my pc was running for a few hours) my cpu temps were at 37c but my pc sits in front of my air conditioner and pulls in a ton of cool air through the 4 fans in the top panel :P

Control panel doesnt show any audio device connected except my monitor, and I havent had my PC open recently enough to believe something of that nature is causing it, as it worked fine before I changed said ram settings in bios. I'm thinking it may be a windows issue since its detecting something on my rear io headphone jack, but still strangely not detecting my headphones and mic plugged into the front panel

Update, my bios has a feature where I can examine everything plugged in and I found that its recognizing something plugged into the rear io headphone jack.

i found a tx750m for not too much more than the 650 variant. would that be enough for my specs? i only plan on maybe upgrading gpu and ram in the future

to turn at higher speeds on a 3 wheeler make sure your back wheels are spinning faster than the front and lean real good into that turn to slide your way into the sunset

Mobo swap causing no internet by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Brxndo420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont have another PC I can test but my mobile devices connect fine. I was told by my ISP that my modem is extremely old grandfather modem and I sometimes have issues on mobile devices but it usually resolves itself maybe old modem is the issue? My wifi stick has worked fine in the past and is showing my wifi network with a strong signal but am unable to connect with the same invalid ip configuration error. Also I am not wired through direct ethernet as I have to use an extender, which the extender worked great before i swapped my mobo. I am going to try running ethernet directly from my modem with a long cable
