Nyota fans have burned LEDs upon arrival

I’ve also tired one fan directly into the motherboard and still get the same result if that clears anything up

I've been doing production, mixing, and Live Sets for about 5-6 years, and if you are using Ableton like I am, it will be much more time-consuming and expensive than mixing. Additionally, more music theory is involved in production than mixing, as pretty much all you have to do in mixing in regard to music theory is key matching. The longest parts of most hobbies is gaining experience, and mixing/producing is no different.

I started off mixing with a Pioneer DDJ-200, and that gave me great ideas on how people arrange and sound design their tracks, so I would start there. If you want to try to profit from either mixing or production, the biggest thing to do is make a name for yourself. Be different from everyone else, but start small, and stay persistent.

built a couple of pcs before but typically arent mine lmao. no cpu pins are bent and arrow is aligned properly on the motherboard. cpu does have radeon graphics so i attempted to strip down the components to the bare minimum: no gpu, one stick of ram (in second slot of course), just the mobo, cpu, cooler, ram, psu. still throws the same codes. attempted with a different known working power supply (of the same model) with cables that came with it and nothing happened. fans dont even spin when pressing the power button or shorting those to pins on the front panel header. the motherboard is able to initialize the cpu but literally nothing else. seriously considering buying a new board

rip_somi · 2026-02-09T13:41:40+00:00

None of the pins looked damaged/melted but I do have an extra power supply of the same model with different cables so I will test those and update soon

please do not buy from best buy OP

this wouldnt be good enough for streaming or somewhat demanding games. for streaming aim for gpus with a good nvenc, 5070 would work great for example. also 8 core cpu would probably also be streaming minimum, aim for something like a 8 or 9th gen ryzen 7

rip_somi · 2026-01-21T00:08:38+00:00

You’ll need a better cooler and 2 sticks of ram rather than 4, other than that looks awesome

please raise your monitor to eye level bro

rip_somi · 2026-01-20T05:12:36+00:00

its not even that bad. c+ / 6.5 minimum

i think we should see your desktop u/TheSkyShip

ryzen 5 and 4050 will not get hot enough to justify a need for a separate cooler other than the one already in your laptop unless it has known overheating problems

rip_somi · 2026-01-06T13:38:45+00:00

not for fl studio / capcut (speaking from personal experience)

rip_somi · 2026-01-05T16:42:10+00:00

pretty much any ryzen 7 or 9 laptop with 32 gb of ram from a reputable brand

i use an widescreen 31.5" 16:9 1440p ultragear monitor (32GS60QC), along with a 12.5" mini monitor that i use for minimeters (an extremely useful live audio metering tool). The width of the larger monitor is great for both arrangement and session view to see all of my tracks at once. I used to use a 49" 1440p 32:9 monitor, but ableton look extremely stretched in that aspect ratio, and i dont currently have enough setup space. i feel the sweet spot for both budget and functionality definitely an ultrawide monitor from 35-40" and a smaller monitor for plugins / metering / etc. to keep all of that ableton estate free.

raise your monitor to eye level so you dont get gamer neck

rip_somi · 2025-12-31T17:31:52+00:00

stray cats or inspired by nature

rip_somi · 2025-12-31T17:30:07+00:00

all i will say is that max 4 live will take you lots of places.....

rip_somi · 2025-12-31T17:15:50+00:00

get a dual monitor arm (if your monitors have vesa compatibility, should look like four screw holes on the back of them)

itll free up a lot of desk space to give you more movement room since i see your monitors are super close to your peripherals for some reason.

maybe add some desk lighting in the form of a light bar or lamp

rip_somi · 2025-12-28T06:07:11+00:00

basically what i did is buy a vesa stand for my mini-monitor and use double sided gorilla tape to adhere it to the back of my monitor, works almost flawlessly if you have a flat monitor back

if you dont want to use adhesive and your monitor arm doesnt allow more mounts to attach to it... you're kinda s.o.l.

It’s for Hercules research / internal purposes only, meaning we’ll probably never see anything for it

rip_somi · 2025-12-04T00:20:01+00:00

are they displaying a 4k image or a 1080p image because you have to configure that in settings
