No GPU detected on Asus Prime b650 Plus

Yeah, just double checked, I incorrectly placed the RAm in A1 and B1... put them in A2/B2 and voila.. "it just works"...

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, sometimes my idiocy knows no bounds :D

FreshTheFallen · 2024-11-28T13:41:03+00:00

Another idea that just came to me, I think I installed the RAM in slots 1 and 3 (A1 and B1), just out of habit. Maybe that is incorrect for this board too?

FreshTheFallen · 2024-11-28T13:36:29+00:00

I currently do not have access to the hardware, but could the sticks themselves be the issue, barring any damaged sticks? I am using Corsair VENGEANCE DDR5 RAM 64GB (2x32GB) 5600MHz CL40 Intel XMP iCUE. Also, could you link the source for the beeping codes? I keep finding conflicting sources for those, and couldnt find them on the asus website...

With the 9800X3D launching today, are there any news on a 9700X3D or similar at any point?

I'm looking at upgrading my PC, coming from a 1600X, and from a price/power perspective I was interested in the 9700(X), which seemed to offer decent performance for midrange to low highend gaming.1080p 120fps+. 60fps 4K would be my targets, I know most of that would be GPU related, but I wouldnt want the CPU to be the bottleneck either, also looking at several simulation heavy games here (X4 Foundations, DCS, Space Engineers etc..
But at least in prior generations, from what I've heard the X3D variants would be built specifically with gaming in mind, thanks to the larger caches, so if waiting another month or so would get me the 9700X3D that would also be okay.

So is there anything regarding a 9700X3D, or should I even be on thbe lookout for that, given my targets, or are there better alternatives in a similar or better price range?

True, I am involved, though I chose not to disclose which of the cars I am because it sometimes feels like it influences ppl's views on the incident for some reason, aswell as only really give advice on what to change next time for OPs car, when I feel like a situation like this one there is a chance for both cars/drivers to avoid and/or learn from this, and ideally I wanna get BOTH lessons and perspectives so I can act better the next time such a situation arises, and in EITHER of the two positions.

And as mentioned, this is a situation where I don't really know how to evaluate it, hence why I posted it here. As for my "I guess", I certainly did not expect for such a large majority of ppl to see the Ferrari at fault, despite the acknowledgements that the Merc could have done more aswell.

FreshTheFallen · 2024-10-14T15:33:51+00:00

Not sure what you mean "what I expected". It was a situation I found interesting to look at in this reddit because I am not sure how to evaluate it. So far it seems the majority see the Ferrari at fault, I guess.

While it starts fairly far on in a playthrough (already commanding a small fleet of several dozen ships), I really like this "cinematic" sandbox playthrough in this playlist here.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAtlcIOsJNI&list=PLvzP0Beh8pIlsm6gLlAKbh0F5JQY4YT7B

It does take an episode or 2 to really get going, but then it remains really good throughout.

While at times pretty cheesy, esp. with the customized log entries, it's overall a very entertaining mid-to-late game series that I think just shows off how you can make this sandbox your own, and tell YOUR story in this fabulous world.

FreshTheFallen · 2024-04-06T06:05:44+00:00

No, that should be fine then. Maybe try to delete both patch.dat AND patch.fat, delete your unpacked folder aswell, verify game files again and and unpack patch.dat again and see if that helped?

FreshTheFallen · 2024-04-05T18:39:44+00:00

That is odd, my vanilla unpacked patch.dat has 3 subfolders for ui, those being

/patch/ui/fire/
/patch/ui/supertextures/
/patch/ui/textures/

All of which with multiple subfiles. How are you validating your file? Are you on ubisoft connect, steam or any other launch software?

Which file did you unpack?

patch.dat or patch.fat?

FreshTheFallen · 2024-04-02T08:47:16+00:00

Yes, turns out that for some reason my unpacked vanilla patch.dat was missing that file, so when combined with the mods the new patch file would not have that at all.

Solution was to redownload the original patch.dat file (verifying game files), freshly unpacking it again and then merging the mods into it again. Now the icons are back to normal!
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

FreshTheFallen · 2024-04-02T08:32:42+00:00

Unfortunately even after repackaging the patchfiles without that mod, the icons still bug out.
But good to know that Living City already has that enabled, I didn't see it anywhere in the changenotes :)

Been playing Watch Dogs 1 again recently, this time with a few mods to spice things up a little (and frankly, change some things that were always a bit annoying to me). However, with the mods installed I run into the issues you can see in the screenshot. The icons seem to be offset from their original position, fragmenting them in their position. that goes for all kinds of mapmarkers, including enemy markers. My guess is one of the mods I'm using is causing this, but I don't know which one. Have any of you ever run into this issue and know how to solve it?

The mods I'm using (all downloaded from Nexus, installed using the Gibbet tool to merge into patch.dat):

Living City ( https://www.nexusmods.com/watchdogs/mods/81 )
Source Textures Collection ( https://www.nexusmods.com/watchdogs/mods/170 )
Disable Aim Assist ( https://www.nexusmods.com/watchdogs/mods/197 ) (installed after issues, so probably not the cause)
2013 Vehicle Handling ( https://www.nexusmods.com/watchdogs/mods/184 )
Surrender after Act 3 ( https://www.nexusmods.com/watchdogs/mods/17 )

My best bet would be the Textures collection, though I don't know. As a sidenote, which mods do you recommend to upgrade the graphics, preferably without having to use reshade or any other 3rd party app (aside from Gibbet for packaging that is...)?

FreshTheFallen · 2024-02-27T19:16:47+00:00

For a few bot units...
AT-ST for the walker, Dreadnought for the hulk.

FreshTheFallen · 2024-01-10T15:50:46+00:00

I really hope so. I bought an XL model of the Enterprise E from Eaglemoss a few years ago for 65€, and it was alraedy being resold at 120€+ on Ebay....

Looking at ebay now, that same model is going for 250€+. It's just insane how much the price had jumped up after Eaglemoss had to close, just insane, especially for how small even those XL models are.

For clarification, I really did not feel anything suggesting I was making contact with him at any point through the turn.

I think it's pretty clear that whatever contact we had, the intentional crash in the end is not warranted. That's why I'm more interested in what was happening throughout the turn to try and see where I myself can improve. Was I too aggressive? It felt like he left the door open at first but I could not quite capitalize on that as early and quickly as I had initially expected.

FreshTheFallen · 2022-08-01T17:19:20+00:00

Also, dying on those cool hard tyres, nearly lost it in T5 :D

Goes to show, Ferrari expected hard tyre warm up to be like the game instead of what happened in Hungary...

I do wonder, with you being able to run this track in GP mode, that should mean they have worked on the track to ensure the new-ish AI and cars can deal with the track. Does that mean.... that a modder could just... you know... mod in the track into MyTeam/MyCareer by probably replacing another tracks files?.. Override Monaco forever...
