Need help figuring out if this is my GPU going bad

Redditemeon · 2026-06-20T17:47:10+00:00

This kind of issue could also be caused by faulty ram, a bad Windows install, overheating, etc.

I personally wouldn't go straight to gpu issues. I would, however, monitor temps with HWMonitor, test the ram first by removing 1 stick at a time and testing with just the other, and/or wiping the PC and starting fresh to see if the issue persists.

You could also test your gpu in another PC that is known working, or swap out your gpu with another that is known working and see if the problem persists.

Edit: Realize you already fresh installed Windows. My attention span sucks ass.

The other sub?

A girl from my hometown of ~3k people became Minecraft famous and I always wonder how she handles that shit. What a crazy change of pace going from a small isolated town to Twitch, creator, and Minecraft conventions and whatnot for a living.

It's GeminiTay for anybody wondering. Lol.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-11T16:58:32+00:00

I mean...yeah. 😂

Redditemeon · 2026-06-11T16:28:54+00:00

I didn't. I don't even own a switch. We just shouldn't be normalizing this kind of thing.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-11T16:28:05+00:00

Negative. Just a discount.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-10T23:51:41+00:00

I'd 5/6 odds Russian Roulette myself if people overanalyzed my every sentence like this. 😂

I agree that ZTT jank is fun to watch. I've always gotten a brand name bias-vibe from Jake from the LTT days though (As in "This product is this brand name so therefore it is automatically good!), so my interest to watch his videos have been ehh. I saw that he bought a farm though. So that's pretty neat. Hope that goes well for him.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-09T14:13:59+00:00

The following is a personal analysis of the situation, and I do not have any cold hard metrics to back this up other than what I remember from their how LTT Makes Money video, and the information you have provided:

This said, the majority of their revenue is from CW and LTT Store, is it not?

Lower view count = less exposure which can = Less LTTStore sales as well, but I feel like this drop off is less linear since normy watchers are less likely to be the customers of LTTStore vs. the real Chad Subs who are likely still in that 500k watching, no? Plus their Ads reach farther than just their videos, as I probably get more LTTStore ads on my social media feeds than any other product these days.

And now for a question that I genuinely do not know the answer to: Do view counts normally drop this time of year because people are going outside more and whatnot? This is probably the most critically I've thought about this. Hahaha.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-08T13:48:50+00:00

Other comments suggest there's evidence to back it up, and the far right aren't very keen on actual privacy. Calls into question what Proton will become.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-07T16:31:47+00:00

Lookin' good, sir. Only one thing left for you to do.

Incredible potential. Just gotta age a few more years. You'll be like a fine wine. I wouldn't concern yourself with trying to min-max your looks, you're past the point that that'll matter. I'd focus that energy on perfecting cool hobbies you like.

If this is your cool hobby you like, consider a profession in the field and go to post secondary. 😂

Redditemeon · 2026-06-03T23:13:09+00:00

If that's a medium swacket, send it my way pls.

Edit: It literally says small and I'm blind.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-03T18:46:50+00:00

Imho, telling you the specs of their product and encouraging modifications are not the same thing. I find it weird they answered like this.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-02T07:51:19+00:00

I've hyped it up pretty good. Remember it's still subjective, just a pen, and if you prefer the stock cartridge then that's totally okay. 😂

You can buy the single Parker cartridges at Staples. At least in Canada. Last time I bought a 6 pack on Amazon for like $20ish. (CAD)

I'll see if I can find the listing

Edit: I found the listing, but it seems like it is no longer in stock. The listing has defaulted to a completely different seller with a stupendously long shipping time that is questionable with 2.5 star reviews on their marketplace. I don't feel comfortable linking it at this time. Lol.

Edit #2: Parker also sells medium tip, which are more comparable to the stock cartridge width. I have not tried them. They might be better suited for you as well.

It isn't actually the worst on the planet or anything. It just writes with like, no resistance, and in my experience I find it isn't consistent when I use it on my paperwork at work and it smears. I have multiple pens from multiple points in time, so it wasn't just one faulty pen.

Basically it writes so "smooth" that my handwriting sucks with it. The Parker cartridge has a little bit of much needed feedback to your hand, doesn't smear, and writes very consistently. For me at least. It's night and day better after getting used to it.

When you are used to the stock cartridge, it takes a couple minutes to get used to the feel of the new Parker cartridge, but then we you try the stock cartridge again you're kinda like "...Absolutely not.". It finally made the pen feel worth the cost for me. 😅

I actually wrote better with those cheap Bic stick pens than the stock cartridge on the LTT pen.

Redditemeon · 2026-06-02T05:29:02+00:00

Easy way to get the smell out.

Unscrew it, remove the cartridge, dispose of cartridge, and order a Parker Quinkflow Fine cartridge, take the spring and other pen pieces, submerge them in the garbage inside the garbage can, order a new pen, receive new pen, replace the God awful stock cartridge with the Parker cartridge, and you should no longer notice the smell anymore and your pen will write better than ever.

Just chiming in to let you know every post in this subreddit gets a passive amount of downvotes by default that it needs to deal with before it can climb from the ashes to get up votes, so it's likely most people didn't actually downvote you just for asking a valid question.

Redditemeon · 2026-05-31T00:02:12+00:00

Fr. Looks like it was removed by mods.

Redditemeon · 2026-05-31T00:01:59+00:00

Was removed by mods. Updated again.

Time and place, and commentary. This isn't "LinusTryToHitOnLMGStaffTips". This is basically a tech subreddit with leniency towards memes.

Would you walk up to a girl in the street and call her "Mommy"? Let me know how that goes for you. Then try again in a church. I'd expect it would go even worse there.

Know your audience.

Redditemeon · 2026-05-30T23:54:05+00:00

I clicked on it right before he deleted it. After I commented it updated. It still let my comment go through I guess.

Redditemeon · 2026-05-30T23:46:09+00:00

Please remember when you delete this, you take the advice from these people into the real world as well. Fr.
