You would figure there would be some detail or notification that it will need to be made writeable after mounting > formatting since those actions are to make the drive useable. Perhaps this is just how Gparted handles it. New users will have no idea where to find the newly formatted drive since its technically not the root of its own directory from what I can tell. This is probably where a lot of people get frustrated and give up. If I ever make any guides, that will probably be where I would start just for the people that want to see if they can play their games without having to understand the file structure.

Ran into issue already lol I formatted the 1TB drive to use it for Steam Games but I cant create the folder as its default to Read-Only. So tomorrow I get to look how to make that drive r/w, in the meantime I am installing a game on the root drive just for testing FPS in Ace Combat 7

Finally getting around to installing Linux after all these years of pushing it off. Im interested to see how the open drivers work for the 5700 XT.

I'd figure I would make a thread like this for people to give Linux a try and reach out for Linux assistance. You know it feels like the thing you are missing is just RIGHT there but have no idea what you are doing but dont want to make an account at those supposedly abrasive Linux forums to made the laughing stock. Just to be clear, me making this thread is also so I can participate, as I am an idiot. Its time to wear the badge with honor! Tonight I have installed Manjaro MATE on my AM4 system. 2700x @ 4.1 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz 256GB SSD Boot 1TB mSATA Games (hopefully) 5700XT Soon to be getting Steam running and hopefully overnight download a few titles

I was going to buy some xfire/sli bridges but I figured I should ask you guys here first, anyone in the US48 have some laying around? If so i'll make a wanted and and we can make some kind of arrangement. I still want to bench my 5970 XFIRE and GTX 690 SLI

If they don't get on top of uncertainty in the air people will start making other sites to succeed them. It happened for NBT and hwbot has many more passionate users not to mention an economy of sponsors

Simple, move to another state, work, home, sleep and repeat. My friends are mostly all in Edmonton or Alberta.

@Hiew is a big fan of it, AUR and it's quicker rolling updates were a big plus. I used it in a live session for pulling Mac addresses off of windows systems we didn't have access to. The PM in charge of the project didn't mention needing that info until right before we shipped and I didn't want to redeploy windows. I am planning to put manjaro on my AM4 system and see how that goes, I don't have any desire to move to windows 11 but also going cold turkey is equally discouraging lol

I believe you will need a gpu or it won't post since there isn't any iGPU. I think you got that part covered recently. Repairing this should be relatively cheap, workstations value drops like a rock about a year after release and this looks to be SB-E? I saw a few of these a while back in our decom, had fun messing around with it.

Members can hide their own posts iirc, but you can also report duplicate submissions and either myself or one of the moderators can take care of it :) Once it gets warmer yes for now it's warming up my bedroom. In a couple of months I'll likely give it more of a direction in terms of airflow. True enough, perhaps I should clarify. More like don't have any social obligations.

Manjaro

They are both on frames on my table :0 I wouldnt be able to just elevate, I would feel obliged to get fans or something in there lol Nice catch there! 470's had be pretty excited back in the day, still want to get my hands on those double ram capacity versions too

These are the only friends I have anymore

Consolidated my top hardware to one pc so I'm curious to how it will perform :)

Thats one way to do it, easiest method is just plugging into the iGPU with the dGPU installed in the same system. Its practically the only reason why I hold on to one optiplex 9020 or similar type of system.

MPT allows you to remove those limits I botched the vBIOS edit on one of my 5700xt's this weekend though I didnt do any research to see if it was write protected, I dont think it was but oh well its an easy fix

Just saw your post on Reddit, sorry I didnt see it earlier! I wasnt able to get multiple booleans working if that is what you are seeking. Though if all you need is to repeat the Enter key, that is simple enough with the template above. void matrix_scan_user(void){ if (spam_active) { // Check if it's been SPAM_DELAY milliseconds since the last spam if (timer_elapsed32(spam_timer) > SPAM_DELAY) { tap_code(KC_P2); // Send an F2 keystroke spam_timer = timer_read32(); // Reset spam timer } } } In the segment above, you just need to replace the "KC_P2" with the keycode for the Enter key. Keycodes can be found on the QMK Docs here but its "KC_ENT" or "KC_ENTER". bool process_record_user(uint16_t keycode, keyrecord_t *record) { switch (keycode) { case F2TR: // When you press custom SPAM keycode if (record->event.pressed) { spam_active = !spam_active; // Toggle spamming spam_timer = timer_read32(); // Reset spam timer } break; } return true; } In the above I gave it a custom keycode which you can see next to the case "F2TR". People advise against that sort of thing but its more of a mental placeholder for me. F2TR being shorthand for F2 Toggle Repeat. Then you place that key where you want the toggle to be in the keymap. Just for example, below is one layer in my keymap. const uint16_t PROGMEM keymaps[][MATRIX_ROWS][MATRIX_COLS] = { [_SRCE] = LAYOUT( TO(1), TO(1), KC_PENT, KC_VOLU, KC_VOLD, F2TR, KC_F12, KC_P8, KC_PENT, KC_MPRV, KC_MNXT, KC_P4, KC_P5, KC_P6, KC_PENT, KC_LEFT, KC_RGHT, KC_P1, KC_P2, KC_P3, KC_PENT, KC_TRNS, KC_TRNS, KC_P0, KC_P0, KC_PDOT, KC_PENT ), F2TR is the keypress most people associate with "7" on the numpad Welcome to the Forum!

If it ain't broke

I tried to get my 5970 running today on the 10850k but holy hell does it not like Windows 10. I got it to fail, which worked! then applied an overclock and poof it was all gone again lol. I might try again in the near future but I am getting that feeling that Windows 7 will be much easier for that era of hardware. For now I am making the 10th gen system my DD and retiring the AM4 to a new role. Linux. I want to get the Linux side of the forum beefed up, Hiew was admonishing me for trying linux so many times on Laptops that I have modified heavily (thus a lot of drivers didnt work at all) so I plan to give it a try on the AM4 system and perhaps make some guides of my experiences. If I can get my hands on a cheap 5800X3D then it can be the part-time GPU bench system.

Did some research with the GTX 970, looks like it has modding potential for up to 280w-300w and 1.3v so it looks like its going to get a second run. All I did is crank it to the max as is. :)

It's practically on the window with 4 window fans dumping cold air on it (and me lol) It would be better probably next year to do the benching in the garage with the door cracked open. That way it doesn't really matter to me :P

Im thinking the only way to get higher is shunt modding the cards, 10c ambient only brings me about 22c starting temperature, the air cooler cant keep things below 40c. The moment I hit 60c I lose 2100Mhz and 1.1v Might look into doing that with my 5700xt's first though, I have more of them and arent as much of a loss in terms of investment lol

If I had a GTX 970 that ran parity to a 3080Ti it would be quite the marvel indeed 🙂 I'll add my TS scores in just a second, screens are on a different PC

Some new scores for the 3090 with the Galax vBIOS Probably it for now, I plan to get one of my precisions up and running again for some cinebench runs, 20c/40t dual CPU workstation. I also have a 4790k I recently picked mainly for Plex server but I can get some runs done with it.

I think my body will give out before I reach 0c in my bedroom lol I'll wait 10-15 minutes before the next run and see if that will do the trick. I also reversed the PC orientation so that the GPU is pulling cold air straight from the window fan instead of being the furthest thing from. Laptops are very difficult to manipulate these days.
