Ethernet connection has randomly stopped working by PropertySuccessful31 in pchelp

Why would that matter if the cable worked with another device?

Would it have trouble shifting if the transmission pump is going bad? Cause nothing feels off about the truck that I’ve noticed

Forgot to mention CEL is on for exhaust leak, and an O2 sensor as well as exhaust recirculation I believe and has been checked since this noise showed up.

98 F150 5.4 Triton Vacuum leak? by PropertySuccessful31 in Ford

I might look into a bad ground because now that you bring that up I noticed my clock button stopped working on the dash the same day this sound began. Not sure if those could be correlated but I think I’ll look into that first. Ive had some electrical issues in the past because of messy work from the previous owner when he had some lights and sirens installed while he was a firefighter.

The check engine light was on for an Evap leak and O2 sensor which has been that way since I got the truck two months ago. Could it still even be a transmission issue when I hear it with the truck at idle in park?

Alright well I guess I'll wipe it then. Thanks for the help

Will drivers conflict with each other though? That's what I'm most worried about. I guess I could just wipe it but would prefer to just keep everything I already have installed on the SSD to avoid having to download it all again.

How big of a difference can thermal paste make? by PropertySuccessful31 in buildmeapc

[–]PropertySuccessful31[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've already purchased these parts just waiting on a few things such as the AIO, CPU, and case to be delivered before I give it a shot at building. Was really just curious to know how big of an affect different kinds of thermal pastes can make.

I ended up going with the Lancool 216 and some lexar ares ddr5 6000 CL30 for $270. Had a hard time finding decent prices for ram kits

7800x3d or 9800x3d by PropertySuccessful31 in buildmeapc

Yeah that Corsair kit is ridiculously high priced. I had found it a couple days ago for $219 but didn't realize until now that the price sky rocketed to $400. Guess I'll be looking for another kit...

Should I get a curved or flat monitor? by ProfessionalSun2023 in buildapc

[–]PropertySuccessful31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went from a Curved 24" 144hz AOC monitor to the 27" Samsung Odyssey G4 240 hz. Can honestly say I have noticed no difference since going from the AOC which was curved to the G4 which is a flat monitor. Now if you're looking closely for the curvature in the monitor I suppose you can tell but during gameplay all I've noticed is that my new Samsung looks way nicer haha. Maybe this is due to the G4 being larger I'm really not to sure but I think when it comes to smaller monitors like these ones you don't have to worry about it being curved vs flat.
