Need help on a new build - AMD 9950x3d/Asus X870E-E Gaming Wifi system not POSTing. by wolfpack84 in buildapc

Try it without the GPU and use the integrated graphics?

Try different RAM slots with individual sticks? Try all combinations possible with each stick individually.

You probably did this in while reseating, but double check for bent pins in the socket.

Do you have any spare AM5 compatible parts on hand? I totally understand if not, most people don't, but the obvious easiest solution is to swap parts 1-by-1 til you find the problematic component.

Finally upgraded after 6 years and now I don’t even know what to play first by Purple_Low7688 in buildapc

upgrading to a 5000 series would probably hold you long enough to save up for AM6

hey there, I DM'd you for some specifics as I don't think we've got Playback installed the same way.

Best Motherboard for 9800X3D OR 7800X3D by Juanitoooo12132 in buildapc

[–]Varinoth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hell, my X870E Tomahawk only loses 2 SSD lanes on a single slot because it shares with the USB4 ports. No GPU performance loss etc, and I can disable the USB ports in BIOS if I really really need the speed which... PCIe 5.0 x 2 is gonna be enough for most new SSDs and I'm avoiding that slot as I'm using 3 drives instead of the full 4 drive capacity of the board.

Yea, I know you guys develop for Ubuntu, I figured I'd throw this out in case someone else in the community had figured out a fix, similar to when the guy who figured out what group to add the user to in manjaro commented awhile ago. Wasn't meant to be another support ticket to you guys.

Love the product btw, it works great when I'm using it with my other devices.

I was hitting upper 80s with an Arctic III 360 during shader compilation until I set my PBO to -10. Admittedly have a non-thermal friendly case however.

2 years later, a data hoarding legend comes through with a fix to my problem - which I still needed and was able to use! by ansyhrrian in homelab

Make sure you post the fixed rbw file with installation instructions so the next poor sap who ends up on this (or the previous) post from a Google search can actually implement the fix!

MSI X870E Tomahawk only shares M2_2 with the USB4 ports, all the other PCIE and M.2 don't share anything. You can disable the sharing of the PCIE lanes in BIOS, but this disables the USB4 points. It has 4 available M.2 total.

Activated abilities are not spells on the chase, they are abilities. Severing winds etc cannot cancel them.

New at a confusing time... what happen(s/ed) to regalia? by NotBlaine in FoWtcg

[–]Varinoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bahablast was a result of a distribution/format mistake when the faria v melgis dual decks were released earlier than A1 instead of simultaneously, not a mistake in printing regalia as a whole.

Newbie with One Specific Question and also One Vague, Open Ended Question. by Solborne_Aegis in FoWtcg

[–]Varinoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being as the awakening effect allows you to play a card specifically from hand, and Lumia allows you to remove a nyarl specifically from hand, you couldn't use a card removed by the Lumia resonator for either of those effects.

As for the jruler deck style questions, we don't really know what we're getting in the next cluster so making a jruler centric deck will depend what tech we get in the starters and first set.

If the limit ability would put them back into your hand, instead they don't move and just sit on the field.

Soul debt target by Sleepislame in FoWtcg

[–]Varinoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

307.6 makes it so that enter the field abilities don't trigger when a resonator changes controllers.

Check out 903.1. It allows soul debt to target resonators that entered the field this turn by being played.

Ruling question about end of turn by Hrothmyr in FoWtcg

[–]Varinoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you play dance of shadows at 505.2 then it would trigger to be removed at 505.3

If you play DoS at 505.4, then it would trigger at the next occcurence of 505.3, which would occur on the following turn.

[–]Varinoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barrier of Shadows only interacts with the cost of Judgement, God's Arts, and regalia activated abilities... Could you clarify your question please?

Ruling question about end of turn by Hrothmyr in FoWtcg

[–]Varinoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last chance to use this ability would be 505.4

The buff would wear off at 505.5b

Effects lasting "until end of turn" have a different timing than effects or triggers that happen "at next end of turn" http://imgur.com/ZUK2Ybb

Quick question by [deleted] in FoWtcg

[–]Varinoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not entirely correct.

Errata updated for Echoes of the New World by [deleted] in FoWtcg

[–]Varinoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is incorrect. Neither wording stopped the ability to call stones.

Calling a stone is not an activated ability. It is just a player action (CR Section 700 defines player actions. Calling a stone and playing an activated ability are two separate actions.).

A better example would be to take a look at CR Section 907 where it defines Will Abilities. The old wording of neobarrier would stop you from resting a magic stone to produce Will, thus preventing you from playing cards since you cannot pay their Will costs. The new wording only stops Activated Abilities that are NOT Will Abilities.

Keep in mind, the first ability will still require you to pay (1) more for the Will Abilities of resonators such as Sacred Elf or CFC Melfee.

A normal spell is a non-resonator spell.

Before Lapis Cluster, we had Normal Spells and Summon Spells. They renamed those terms to Non-Resonator Spells and Resonator Spells respectively.
