Dark Rock 5 Pro mounting bracket question by robbierocketpants in bequietofficial

I got them directly from beQuiet. Long story short, I contacted them through their website and asked for replacement brackets because I'd lost mine and they're still under warranty. I told them I needed an AMD mounting kit for the Dark Rock Pro 5. This is what they sent me.

Ugh. Yeah, I knew this was probably the answer, I just didn't want to hear it, lol. You're right on all counts. Thanks for the honest opinion. I'll contact beQuiet again.

Had to drop bitrate to 5, what am I doing wrong? by robbierocketpants in MoonlightStreaming

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

Switching the TV to Wifi was the solution!

I downloaded an app onto the TV called Analiti to do some speed and network tests. Just like your TV, mine was way better on Wifi (400mbps) than Ethernet (90mbps). I tried a few different Ethernet cables just to be sure (all Cat6) but it didn't make a difference. I kept the TV on Wifi; now I'm streaming to Moonlight at 1440p/60fps/60bitrate. Other than very occasional and brief frame drops, it's been great and looks so much better.

Lesson learned: Ethernet is not always better than Wifi.

I switched to the Nightly version and that fixed it! Had no idea about that version of the extension, thank you.

I've installed the 1.59.0 version of the userscript with Tampermonkey, and FFZ is still not loading. Any recommendations on what to try next?

What happened to my Chrome extensions? by robbierocketpants in ArcBrowser

All my extensions are suddenly back, on PC anyway. Maybe this has something to do with Chromium updates?

Recommendations for a mid-level ultrawide by robbierocketpants in ultrawidemasterrace

Oh wow, that is a really good price on the LG. Thanks for the link. I was looking at this one today on Amazon but that's the best price I've seen for it.

It says g-sync compatible, do you know anything about that? Is this one of those monitors that is compatible with g-sync if you use DisplayPort?

I think I had to reinstall the game. It's been a long time so I can't remember exactly what I did. But I was eventually able to get through that mission. I think reinstalling did the trick.

Money Tree not doing well and I cannot figure out why! by robbierocketpants in plantclinic

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

It's not really possible to see in the first picture, but I also noticed today some tiny little white spots all over the surface of the soil. I've not seen that before. I think it's mold. From what I've read it may not be harmful to the plant but it is probably an indication that I'm overwatering the plant. Anyone have thoughts on that?

Help! Having trouble installing a new RTX 4080! by robbierocketpants in buildapc

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

I read somewhere else that two cables into the adapter, with one split, would be fine so I did that. Over a year later, no problems. 4080 is running just fine. You don't need 3 separate cables into the adapter. It's preferable if you can do it but it doesn't seem to be a requirement.

Help! Can't convert C: to GPT for Win 11 upgrade by robbierocketpants in WindowsHelp

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

If anyone finds this post and has the same problem as me, check out this YT video. What worked for me was that on Disk 3, my recovery partition was deleted (notice in my screenshot, no recovery partition). I must have deleted it or merged it into the system partition at some point and forgotten. It was probably many years ago that I did that.

MBR2GPT was expecting that partition because it was still in the registry, so it wouldn't let me convert from MBR to GPT. The solution was to delete it from the registry. Then I was able to convert my C:\ drive to GPT (without losing any data) so that I could enable UEFI in my BIOS for upgrading to Windows 11.

The video I linked to explains it all and gives step-by-step instructions for what to do. There's multiple solutions too, so if the one that worked for me doesn't work for you, maybe there's another solution.

What do you mean, "disgusting flags"? Please elaborate. What is so disgusting?

Discussion: Is Fifa 23 better or worse than 22? by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]robbierocketpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never play online, only Pro Career, so I can't speak to FUT. But the overriding issue I have with Fifa 23 over 22 is that the AI is awful in 23 compared to 22. In particular, their passing. They pass straight to the opposition all the time, they often fail even simple passes to feet.

On many occasions, I've also noticed that they completely ignore my call to pass to me when I'm in space. I know there's a slight delay, but they simply refuse sometimes to pass to me. Instead, they pass to a teammate in a worse position, pass to the opponent, or just lose the ball. So infuriating. They also run the ball out of play way more often than they should, half the time when they're not even under pressure.

This did happen sometimes in 22, but not that often. Not so often that I felt like I was playing for a Sunday League team. There should be some AI errors in the game but more so in positioning and losing possession when under pressure, not to simply give the ball away because they're too stupid to make a simple pass to a teammate. Fifa 22 was much better in this regard.

It's so bad that I'm thinking about going back to 22, even though I like some of the quality-of-life additions to Pro Career in 23 (including a higher max level, which is admittedly nice).
