IT BS thread

Not dumb questions, the fact you're asking is great!

Tips? Are you watching South Park right now? You should be.

 

Almost cooked my gpu just now playing 7 days. It was sitting at 80 and riding for a min until i looked over. Afterburner shows that it was maxing out

 

Thanks man

Lol

 

Like I said around 85~95 or so the GPU should start underclocking itself and performance will suffer.

The machine will crash long before any real damage is done unless you bypass something.

 

I just dont wanna see it that high i guess. Should i tun v sync back on for that game?

 

Make sure your fan is going up with temperature in Afterburner? I know in Precision X you can define custom fan curves? A lot of times the default fan profiles max at like 40~60%.

 

It was set on auto but ibcan set my own curve. Idk where to start with that though.

I turned vsync on in 7 days and my temps stayed much much lower

 

That's pretty much what mine looks like. Although you don't need additional points you can get away with a minimum and a maximum and just let it make a sloped line between the two.

 

It already had the additional points

 

So check this out, Some Indian guy calls my cellphone today...
"Hello this is blah blah from Microsoft and our records show that your computer has a virus" at this point I knew it was a F'ing scam.
Me: Uhh no it doesn't
Indian scammer: Yes it does our records indi....
Me:I use a Mac bro
Indian scammer: Click (hangs up)

Friggin classic, man...... if I wasn't at work i would have totally f'd with him.

 

I had this happen to a coworker while we were in the office. It was hilarious we messed with the guy for like an hour before my buddy goes "Wait, Windows? I use Apple though."

 

Finally got my mdadm array to assemble!

 

Anybody using Windows 10 regularly?

 

I have it on my work computer and my personal laptop. I'm sticking with 7 on my main desktop.

 

I actually went live on it a month or so after release and I've been very happy but one feature I really like suddenly disappeared awhile back. In any "View" mode (details, icons, etc.) can you "Sort By" or "Group By" when in the "Quick Look" area? I was REALLY enjoying having it "Sort By" file type and got comfortable with it then it disappeared.

 

These?

 

Correct, what if you just click on the "Quick View" icon instead of a "Library" like that? The group and sort options are always greyed out on my desktop at home and I hate it.

 

To many servers (124), to many applications (144), to many users (2500+), not enough IT staff (16). It is making me grow old and gray.

 

Time to learn a scripting language!
