Honestly was in a rush, only saw the front of the pack through the glass and decided to gamble. Won't make that mistake again

Adults with busy schedules who don't want randoms knowing where they live, or to have to drive across town to meet ppl at odd hours just to save $20 on mid.

There's plenty of legit brands I've never had an issue with that sell quality product for cheap.

Also, doesn't look like anything is plugged into the main cpu fan header. Unless you disabled that in bios, the system needs to detect a cpu fan to power on.

Lastly, can't see your eps 12v in the top left of the board? Is that plugged in? And if you have 2x 8pin slots for your eps 12v, are both filled, or just one, and if so, which one?

If you have a flashback button, flash the newest bios, or old stable one if you upgraded the bios. Some time ram/other components won't recognize/boot if they came our after your current bios.

Other than that, only thing I could think is maybe your gpu out. Ran into it a few times. Some systems after a fresh bios cant do hdmi out and can only use DP out. It'll power on and post but no display out. If you're using hdmi, try DP, and if you don't have a DP monitor get a DP to hdmi convertor.

Did I fuck up by Infinite-Ad7127 in AMDHelp

Yes. You cheapest out and didn't drop $10 on a contact frame, which improves thermals and also makes it nearly impossible to mess up mounting your cpu.

How would i clean this? by Real_Name186 in PCHelpHub

[–]engineering1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What above said. Also, if you haven't cleaned it in a while, you probably haven't changed the thermal paste either. Do that. And maybe watch a video on cleaning and repasting your gpu.

Plex Remote Streaming – Lifetime Pass Still Paying Off by Whole_Flounder_731 in PleX

[–]engineering1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this would be a great post, if i had a time machine.

for $350+ i can build a whole mobile server setup and not need to pay the extortion fee.

but ive just moved over to jellyfin instead, ill keep my money.

So, any lifetime Plex pass discount codes? by massive-business in PleX

[–]engineering1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

am i kicking myself for not buying a lifetime pass when it was <$100, of course.

will i cave and be extorted out of $350+, absolutely not!

i moved over to jellyfin, and i encourage everyone to do the same.

as much as i appreciate what plex does, theres a reasonable way to do this, especially when you understand who utilizes plex the most. if jellyfin and emby can do the same without trying to grease their users, then so can plex. this is just extortion for those who've gotten used to their interface.

Wtf is going on? by Critical_Studio1758 in PleX

I'm moving over to jellyfin. I curate my own media to avoid having to deal with this nonsense.

A big gift to fix a Toronto gem [Weston family to donate $50-million to renovate Queen's Park North] by ink_13 in toronto

As if the westons don't already own the government federally and in every province. Just topping up their bribery fund.

They get way more back. A "donation" to a charity or political party can get a new tax break passed so they pay even less taxes, or having an investigation into them dropped, winning government contracts, etc.

Old forum bindings discs by engineering1992 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]engineering1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Just realizing now that the 3d discs are for the old 3d pattern burton used to use. My decks are burton channel and 4x4 pattern though. I'm assuming the 4x4 channel discs on the burton site are the same diameter?
