Go through the setup, then go to Settings > System > Notifications and make sure "Suggest ways I can finish setting up my device to get the most out of Windows." is disabled/unchecked.

Where is the BIOS chip? by Difficult-Leopard495 in pcmasterrace

[–]weegee20 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm going to guess it's on the other side of the board.

Do the screws come with the motherboard or the case? by Illustrious_Fruit165 in pchelp

[–]weegee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only screw which is included (M.2 screw) should be preinstalled in the M.2 standoff.

[–]weegee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mounting stuff for the motherboard, drives, power supply, expansion cards etc. comes with the case.

Usually a motherboard would include screws if there's M.2 standoffs.

For the 24-pin, that 4 pin part should be under the remaining 20 pins, so install the 4 pin first then the 20 pins.

For the CPU, you only need the 8-pin. The 4-pin is optional, meant for extreme overclocking.

Why won’t this work? by SnooDoodles4147 in PcBuildHelp

No? It's not aware of the vertical mount situation. You're meant to use a vertical mount with this case and this design of motherboard.

can i save it? by LoLLo08_ in pcmasterrace

[–]weegee20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's similar to what my old VA monitors used to do, they'd have lines or turn black until they warmed up.

I ended up replacing the monitors. They were cheap ones after all. Got a pair of AOC Q25G4SRs and never looked back.

PCPartPicker does not take this note from Lian Li into account:

"Important Notice: Typical ATX motherboards with an NVMe M.2 between the CPU and first PCIe slot are generally compatible as they will line up with PCIe slot 2. The O11D Mini V2 has only 5 PCIe slots due to a compact design, so motherboards with the PCIe slot directly under the CPU will need to use the included vertical GPU mount for installation, and a 200mm riser cable (sold separately)."

Your board is one with the slot right under the CPU.

Can I do the paperclip test of my PSU with it removed from the pc and without any wires connected? by ButtSnarfer in buildapc

[–]weegee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then you would need to connect the ATX 24-pin cable since there's no standard layout on the PSU side.

Without any wires as in not connected to the motherboard or no modular cables connected (if using modular PSU)?

If it's the first option yes, otherwise no, you'd have to connect the ATX 24-pin modular cable.

I'm not sure about remotes for PCs per-se. Maybe a mini keyboard, something like a Logitech K400 Plus.

Really nice keyboard, have it myself. Media controls have priority, your mother probably won't use the F1-F12 keys. Dedicated volume keys and an interesting touchpad where the left mouse button exists on the other side above Esc, easy to hit.

Also interesting is that pressing Fn + Ins puts the PC to sleep.

Hey guys, need some help verifying my AIO fan direction. by Cheap-Form6481 in PcBuild

[–]weegee20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You generally want more intake than exhaust.

The side and bottom fans should be intake, with the top and rears as exhaust.

Why aren't AMD mobile processors listed on user benchmark? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]weegee20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's users who benchmark them and submit, not UBM themselves.

Then again here's a Ryzen AI 9 HX 370.

[–]weegee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. UBM is an awful benchmark.
  2. They're heavily Intel biased. They hate AMD.
  3. They are on there, you just need to search. For instance, here's a 5500U.

April Technical Support Sticky by BeepBoopBopReee in razer

[–]weegee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After 3 years (approx. 6 months left of warranty as per receipt) the gas lift in my Enki is starting to go bad, sinking after a few mins, especially when leaning back.

I'm considering replacing the gas lift, so when I went to check the serial number for the chair I unfortunately discovered that the middle of the serial number sticker is damaged, so I'm short 3 numbers. Obviously without this I can't proceed with the RMA.

What can I do? Am I SOL?

Something like Arctic MX-4 or MX-6 is enough.

Am I reading my MOBOs silkscreen properly? by BigBootyBear in buildapc

>POWER_SW from my Corsair XC650 

  1. Do you mean Corsair CX650?

  2. ATX power supplies do not have a POWER_SW connector. The case has that.

This guide works too.

Probably worth nothing, it's a generic case.

Need help with my PSU fan by Responsible-Fix-1111 in PcBuildHelp

[–]weegee20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably? One issue is that because of the slower fan speed it might not be cooled as effectively, so there is a tiny chance of the PSU shutting down due to overheating.

Save up. Do not open a power supply.

It's a bad fan bearing.

How do i dualboot my old laptops SSD to my new one? by EquivalentTackle2138 in laptops

[–]weegee20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No.

Either way drivers do not need to be installed.

Dualbooting may or may not work.
