You should consider adding a 10 Gbps Ethernet connection via add-in card to download the round-uppable RAM module and CPU infinity brick. Always attempt to obtain an integer-based system. The CPU can get indecisive around the 5.5 and 6.5 cores mark. You can try therapy and other forms of consistency training; however, being supportive may prevent any problems because it believes in you (and you believe in it). They are always watching. Remain kind and you won't have to invest in the high end Ethernet card.

The reason pc parts fail or “die” when you just turn it on is based in physics. It’s the same as when a lightbulb (non led) blows up when you turn it up. The power going through it is too high right when you turn it on, and as the lightbulb (pc parts) heat up a bit, the resistance rises making it safer. Hope this helps!

Data recovery isn’t possible with an SSD that has had every bit overwritten with a 0 because it doesn’t hold a magnetic charge but rather a switched state. The previous switched state remains unknown. However if you have magnetic media (spinning disk) even a low level format doesn’t guarantee data can’t be recovered. However random writes over every sector with random charges in alternating patterns can still make it pretty impossible to recover the data but this requires special tools and will impact the life span of the disk sometimes dramatically. So don’t destroy your SSD drives, just write 0’s to every sector and sell away 👍🏻 Hope this was helpful 🙏

Yeah, but if you leave it on all night, it'll just update on its own when you are asleep. That's what mine does, at least.

8:46 you are absolutely right, I had a PC build for the longest that worked... but I couldn't turn it off, if I did on booting back on it would fail until it miraculously started up again through trial and error. So I learned to keep it on forever, not even sleep because it wouldn't come out of it, I just turned off the screens at night. My record was six months without turning it off 😂Of course I restarted it regularly and everything but if I kept it off more than a few minutes it would be a nightmare to make it work again. It wasn't even like the pc was dying slowly, it worked flawlessly when on, last game I played on it was The Wicher 3 on medium to high settings from start to finish without any issues.

7:41 the page file is stored on storage media, not RAM. The OS kernel allocates memory to programs in chunks that are known as "pages". In windows, a page file is a file on your drive that gets used when the system has allocated all of its physical memory (all your RAM), yet programs need more pages, so your OS will move some pages out of physical into the page file stash. It also gets used when you hibernate your computer, where the whole contents of your RAM get saved to the page file to be loaded on wake.

I remember when adding more RAM did make my computer faster. Back When having 512mb or 1gb (single channel mode) and then doubling it to 1gb or up to 4gb actually did speed common tasks up by a lot in Dual channel mode.

Adding more RAM does still speed up computers. A 4gb PC boots up and responds slower than an 8gb PC. A 16gb PC is much faster. This fact hasn't changed at all. Yes, it helps immensely if you clone your old spinning hard drive over to an SSD, but having a new SSD AND more RAM will make your average PC speed up tremendously. RAM plus SSD equals productivity and much more instant gratification. More RAM is always better.

I know the reason why components fail when you turn them on and off from a study done by IBM in the late 70's. Yes, I am an old nerd. When power cycling electronic parts they shrink and expand according to temperatures. This causes micro fractures. Leaving them at the same temps prevents this.

"Leaving them at the same temps prevents this.". Leaving them on helps keep them more thermally stable and significantly reduces this, It doesn't prevent it :) Also more specifically the electronic parts aren't the problem, the conductors (e.g. the traces in a PCB) are. Those micro fractures will eventually break and function like a switch that has failed open. I'm not THAT old, however, I know the study you are referring to and have read through it in the past.

@Spasgasmic

4 жыл бұрын

this is exactly what I came here to say. Different materials have different rates of cooling and different melting points. Even if you never reach the melting point (hopefully lol) nor have materials that have vastly different cooling rates, they will at absolutely minimum, have different thermal expansion capacities and tolerances. This all leads to the materials dissimilating after prolonged and continuous heating and cooling. Even if the metals don't separate, they will create areas where they are more or less conductive. So leaving your computer on has a purpose and turning your computer off has a purpose. It depends on the age of the hardware and the current condition of the materials involved... AKA, could go either way and you probably can't tell by sight. This isn't even getting into the the specific components in the different products that have different tolerances and time frames for power fluctuation. Thats a whole other story with no real answer to the issue in general and would require exact specifics of your system. So no, myth not busted.

A personal statement to overclocking "damage": I had an MSI GPU and did a litttle overclocking (without changing the voltage) with MSI Afterburner on an overclocking friendly Motherboard from ASUS. After that, the motherboard (as far as i could localize the sound) did some annoying coil whining, even after reset the GPU to normal clock. But it stopped after i changed the GPU. So i prefer to not start overclocking before i start to think about changing my components to better ones.

Using too much thermal paste is bad. - FALSE, there is NO SUCH thing as too much thermal paste. In fact, you should dip your CPU in thermal paste for at least 2 hours before installation. 3. Tying up loose cables in nice and neat. - True and False, though visually it is appealing, cables generate heat, and placing them all together creates more heat. Let your cables ventilate and have them splayed all over the place. 4. Tweezers and Zip Ties are not the same thing. - Regional true or false, its like "POP" and "SODA". In the North and Midwest, its called "POP", in certain parts like East Coast or in HeeHaw states, they say "SODA" in reality, they are the same thing, just like Tweezers and Zip Ties. Cept in HeeHaw, they also call EVERYTHING Coke, Orange Coke, Lemon Coke, Cherry Coke, instead of say... Sprite, or something. Going to New YAWK, and asking for "POP" only to have city bumpkin look at me and say "POP??...... POP....CORN?" Yes Jackie...I'm talking about you. 5. The more RAM the better - Depends, More RAM is better, but the human eye can't even see more than 24GB of RAM so any more than that is useless. 6. Screwing in with confidence will result in better benchmarks. - True, but make sure you're not GRANNY SHIFTING, not DOUBLE CLUTCHING like you SHOULD.

Myth 3: Adding more ram to you PC can improve multitasking performance allowing you to run more programs simultaneously without penalty. Some media programs like adobe after effects can get ram hungry. Also Some games require more ram then others and more ram allows you to load more mods into the game. Myth 6: I agree. SSDs don't have the lifespan of HDD's in terms of read/right cycles but are more durable towards physical wear due to the lack of moving parts. Myth 8: This is complicated question without a definitive answer because the longer you keep something powered the more it's internal circuit components tend to electronically wear. At the same time though constantly turning your PC on and OFF also causes wear due to electric shock from change in voltages. Just like jayz said, components are more likely to die when being turned on. So it really depends on how often you use your PC , what hardware your running and how that hardwear responds to power throughout its life cycle. Myth 9: Increasing voltage to maintain OC does degrade your OC potential, even with more than adequate cooling. This is called CPU degradation. This graph shows how voltage must be increased to maintain the overclock over time: www.anandtech.com/show/2468/6 I've experienced this wear in before with my old i7 2600k. where for one month I could maintain an OC at certain voltage with sub 70C temperatures but then bump into stability issues the next month where I must increase voltage to maintain that OC.

@JayzTwoCents - idea for a build. you talked about heating up the room, how about a build when the cpu and gpu are watercooled but the heatexchanger is extended to like another place ( outside .. ) so the pc does a better job at not eating up the room.

Great video. I had seen it before but KZread recommended it so I though "well what the heck, let's watch it again". The thing is that At 2:20 @jayzTwoCents mentions that an AMD CPU and GPU pair gives no advantage, and this was true back when this video was launched. but now with the new Big Navi GPUs and Ryzen 4 CPUs, pairing an AMD CPU with an AMD GPU does give some advantages regarding memory usage.

As someone who first started watching Jay when I looked up an AMD FX OC guide (which I'm still using today lol) I would love to sit with this guy for one day and just watch him do one of those videos. Dude always makes me laugh while learning. Keep it up Jay.

It's ok KZread, I already built the PC, you can stop recommending me these videos now :D

"your eyes can only see 24 fps!!"

@DragonNexus

4 жыл бұрын

That stems from a misunderstanding of a fact. The human eye needs to see images displayed at 24FPS in order to stop perceiving them as still images in sequence and start perceiving them as fluid motion. Anything higher than 24FPs is fine, we just need *at least* that in order for it to look like motion and not a slide show.

I think most people don't believe that anymore. I think what it boils down to is what looks better to a specific person. I think video looks better at 24 fps, especially if that is what the director wanted it to look like. And to me I don't like the way video games look above 60 fps. The reaction time might be better but it just doesn't look right to me. And I am not good enough at video games for reaction time to matter lol. I am way more concerned with fps matching the refresh rate. I cannot stand screen tear.

If you're still looking for content as we come out of the GPU drought I, for one, would appreciate the paging file tutorial video.

1:45 Components undervolt and underclock themselves. When that happens, they will be dumping less energy into the room. It's not the same. Water cooling your components allows more heat to get dumped into the air because they won't thermal throttle as fast.

Myth: RGB does not enhance performance.

@benjaminbong9214

That's actually untrue, the University of Harvard Berkeley conducted a 2 year PC user test on RGB performance. There were 10 PC's being tested, 5 with RGB and 5 without. The results have actually shown that the PC's with RGB actually performed up to 20% across the board, testing performance and overall system quality after 2 years.

Truth: too much RGB will reduce performance. Nvidia GPUs have limit for total board power, so blazing bright colors on thicc RGB will draw a few watts that could have been used for GPU core. There is a meme SSD from a respectable manufacturer that draws like 5W on the RGB. The SSD overheats and throttles to oblivion.

4:01 When I was in AFJROTC and we had to send Air Force PCs back to the base they came from, rather than sending the Hard drives to a company to destroy they just told us to smash them with a hammer before returning the systems to them. A kid in my unit apparently got a U.S. Air Force system confused with a school system and accidentally smashed a school district hard drive rather than the one from the Air Force system. Lets just say we didn't let him live it down considering the Air Force systems had a big sticker on the corner that said Property of the United States Air Force on them with a huge Hap Arnold symbol AKA the Air Force logo right above it.

Still running a Phenom 24/7 since almost a decade back now. It has gone from being on due to laziness to being a thing that must be on. Naturally it sits in a corner with only power and a network cable doing GPU mining non-stop thanks to the 4 PCI-e ports.

Still though windows defender is very well made and protects most uneducated monkeys from causing damage at its standard settings. If you are really worried you can bump it up however its really only as safe as the user..which is why Linux can be the most safe and then the least safe OS to exist currently because it's really all down to the user in control. windows and mac os while better normally have the same faults its as good as its users. Once the user basically accepts anything random or was trustworthy or whatever well that makes it all pointless.

You want to talk about cheap, we had a land line that used the 2' tall green boxes from the 70's. I'd say that about 2000 or so a guy in a Nova ran over the box, it was smashed into the earth almost flat. The technician came out a couple days later and bent it into slightly a box again and half made a teepee out of it over the guts. It stayed that way for 15 or so more years... I guess the 2 customers never complained.
