Pretty much every laptop AC adapter ever has universal voltage since laptops are kind of designed for traveling. Usually says something like 100-240v 50/60 Hz.

TIL.

Might still need a plug adapter, though. Doesn't sound like the 3 prong ones are very common in Japan.

Chrome/Internet explorer are incredibly slow since yesterday ~ 18:00 CET. twitch streams dont work anymore and many sites are very very slow but this site is fast!
edit: I think sites are solved, except twitch. latency to broadcaster/encoder about 50sec and puffer is always about 5-0 sec. video and audio are stagnating if puffer is on 0sec on any resolutions. Youtube works flawlessy on 720p.

edit: same time, maybe I am 1min ahead.

I don't know if this is the right thread for this, but is there anything to the "ryzen is smoother than i5/i7"? For what it's worth I do generally have a good number of background programs/tabs open, but I'd rather take an fps hit for a smoother experience. I don't know if my 4670k is nearing the end or maybe it's just outdated but I feel like the frames I get are less consistent than they used to be.
"But, as the conservative understands it, modification of the rules should always reflect, and never impose, a change in the activities and beliefs of those who are subject to them, and should never on any occasion be so great as to destroy the ensemble."

Trying to get some help here. Recently bought a XFX Vega 56 graphics card.
My computer works fine with a different graphics card (a beater 8600gt or something).
My power supply is Corsair TX650W (bronze I think).

When I plug in the Vega, the card fans spins for around 10 seconds and the fans stop after that, although the XFX graphics card lights are still on. I get no display. I suppose there are three distinct possibilities.

1) The card is defective (will try to verify this in a few days with a different computer elsewhere).

2) The PSU is under-powered/defective. It works fine with 8600 gt and a I5 2500K system, but adding a power hungry Vega is too much?

3)There is something wrong with the mobo bios settings (or perhaps drivers?) that is preventing sufficient juice to be delivered to the cards. Perhaps, cutting off the power because of power saving? I did try to reset the mobo bios setting by unseating the CMOS battery.

My question would be: which scenario is most likely? And, how would I check/fix for scenario 3?


Thanks for the help

Is this a good setup?

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/LHjFTB

I've got a case already, this will be mainly to play some games casually (not cutting edge), video rendering, photoshop/lightroom and running some VM's for dev work. HDDs are meant to go to RAID1 and I've got the case already.
oh, hai

(don't listen to me)
1080 is for a 4k setup, right? so you'll want a 4k screen (+120hz??) on top of that
also what about this thundersomething usb port option or usb port c or whatever it is

1080 will struggle at 4K. You're looking at minimum FPS of 20-40 in a lot of games and averages of 40-60. You could probably get higher on low quality settings, but what's the point of 4K running on low?

I'm not sure this is the appropriate thread to ask, but here goes anyway. I just spent the whole day at a friend of mine's place building his new pc. I've built plenty of PCs before, but it was the first for him. Anyway, the pc doesn't boot; it turns off automatically ~half a second after pushing the power button. Before that it seems to work as it should (fans running etc), but the CPU LED on the mobo turns on which according to the manual means the CPU isn't working properly.

The specs are the following:
Intel i5-8600K CPU
Gigabyte Z370 HD3 motherboard
MSI GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB GPU
2xVengeance LPX 4GB DDR4 RAM
Silent Base 600 case
Seasonic S12 II Bronze 620W PSU
SK Hynix SL30D SSD
Noctua NH-U12S cooler.

We tried the following, none of which made any difference:
1) Change mobo standoffs
2) Rebuild the PC multiple times to ensure that cables are plugged in correctly
3) Boot without the GPU using the internal card on the mobo
4) Boot using only one RAM stick, set in different slots
5) Clear the BIOS by shorting the CMOS jumper
6) Remove the CPU cooler, re-apply thermal paste, ensure no thermal paste was anywhere but on the CPU

Anyway have any ideas?

Did you try taking out CPU and they installing it again, while making sure it's correctly positioned and no pins are bent? You could also try different PSU, but I VERY much doubt this is the issue in this case. I would definitely try to check the CPU and maybe install it in other mobo to confirm.

Yup, tried that too, didn't help. We have no other mobo to check it, my home desktop runs a Ryzen and we're not allowed to take apart our workstations
I figured if it was the PSU taking the 1050 off should make it work fine; I guess I can try pulling the one from my own desktop but yea that seems unlikely to me as well.

Damn, not sure what else can be done. Any pc repair shop nearby who could check the CPU in their mobo? Some should have the right kind of socket in their back for testing etc. - either that or RMA the unit as faulty.

Good luck and let me know what solution you went with.

What happens if you boot without any RAM?

If i recall correctly, that sometimes gives you evidence as to whether the CPU + Motherboard is working or not. In my case there are different beepcodes.

Kind of sounds like a short is causing it to shut off immediately.
