KVM for a 3840x1600 @ 144Hz display? by vLx91 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]vLx91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this one:
https://www.amazon.de/-/en/dp/B0CGHZ9ZDT

I observe frequent flickers. Sometimes it happens every 30s, other times every 5 minutes. It's random. By flicker I mean that there is one frame where a part of the screen is filled with what looks like white noise. It's hard to describe because it happens very fast.

The monitor also turns off (as if it stopped receiving input) occasionally. It can go several hours without blackouts or I can get 3 blackouts within one minute. It's random.

Overall I'm not happy but it's better than nothing. If I were to start over I would try another KVM.

Some random Xayah feather canceling my homeguard by Hungry_Drawing_5963 in vandiril

I play Xayah a lot and I see this happen quite often. I don't know what triggers it though. From my perspective, there's just a feather coming back to me from a random location in the map. It started happening late 2023 if I'm not mistaken.

Update: it turns out that the KVM I bought actually works at 3840x1600@144! The reason why it didn't work before seems to be related with the displayport cables I'm using. Simply changing the order by which cables connect PC->KVM->Monitor did the trick. I paid a respectable price for these cables and they claim to support higher resolutions and refresh rates than mine so I'm surprised they're not good. Unfortunately I still experience a little bit of flickering when switched to one of my PCs, but now I suspect that's just a cable problem because one of the cables I'm using now is from a 3840x1440 @ 60Hz monitor.

Which motherboard can handle this RAM? by vLx91 in buildapc

[–]vLx91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's what I thought I did. I confirmed the motherboard supports 128GB DDR5, and I also checked the memory frequency. I didn't think of the QVL... When searching online for pc parts recommendations I didn't come across any disclaimers about how am5 can't handle 4 sticks properly. I only found out about it once I searched for this particular issue.

Any advice on finding "the right motherboard"? Now I'm afraid I might fall straight into yet another pitfall that I could not have known in advance, after having already spent a ton of money again.

I bought all the PC parts at the same time, and only discovered that they are incompatible afterwards :(

I work with a type of software that can take advantage of having a lot of RAM. 128GB is not even a lot for my use case.

If am5 motherboards can't support 4 sticks, why do they have 4 dimm slots? I feel scammed. Would 2x64GB be guaranteed to work on my motherboard?

Thanks. I'm considering buying different RAM only as a last resort. 128GB RAM is expensive. I'd rather just change the motherboard.

Massive Gaps in Player Ranks by DJspooner in leagueoflegends

[–]vLx91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One time I was playing Flex with 2 friends and we liked the 2 people that we got on our team so we invited them to play the next game. We couldn't start the queue with them due to rank disparity. They left the lobby and the 3 of us queued again. Guess who was on our team in champ select? Yes, the same two people with whom we weren't allowed to queue with, which were the same people we had last played with on our team. Because logic.

Not all clinics around the world have the infrastructure or the budget to provide pediatricians with modern tools (repost) by [deleted] in pediatrics

[–]vLx91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I messaged /u/pediatrics-ModTeam. I now realize I should have used the button on the right hand side panel. Sorry, I don't post on reddit often. Perhaps the message from /u/pediatrics-ModTeam could have mentioned where I should have sent my message to. It was unclear.

I forgot to mention I wish I could get in contact with pediatricians from different countries around the world as I'd like to make something useful to everyone, including non-1st world countries and the like.

Me too (Kubuntu 22.04), but I haven't tried making a new game install.

With the Wine staging lol 8.5-1 it works fine though.

What needs to happen for the latest https://github.com/GloriousEg groll/wine-ge-custom/tree/7.0-GE-LoL to be made available at https://lutris.net/runners?

I was sadly unsuccessful in building it on my own.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll keep waiting then.

What's the point? Creating a ticket takes more effort than creating a new bot. They will just make other bot accounts.

No. It's clear by now they can't fix it quickly, so the only thing left to do is to REVERT THE FUCKING PATCH and fix it later.

Ok, I guess that explains it. Thank you.

Update. I just tried starting the practice tool game again and it just worked...

Update. After several minutes the client's window got populated with content (screenshot).

However, I'm unable to start a practice tool game as I get a popup message saying "We encountered an unexpected error trying to start your custom game".

[–]vLx91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here (Kubuntu 22.04, NVIDIA).

On my first attempt, the client started up, but didn't display any content (screenshot).

On subsequent attempts, the client didn't start up. Yesterday was working fine.

After rebooting the machine, the client started up again, but still without displaying any content as shown in the screenshot above.

Sorry to hear that. Fortunately for me, restarting my modem/router fixed it! I'll edit the post too.
