I still don't understand, I even tested the PSU using a DMM with a paperclip in pins 15+16.

Dumb shit we kick ourselves for thread.

have you tried turning it off and on again?

Many, many times. The fans would kick on for a split second, then 3 or 4 more would pass before they stayed on constantly. I thought it was a good PSU too, Thermaltake 850W Gold and sure seemed like a good deal for $70 after MIR

BUmp. I want facepalm stories and OC

Thermaltake is not even a good tier PSU brand.

>I even tested the PSU using a DMM with a paperclip in pins 15+16.

That's not testing it under load though.

To this day, the psu and the gpu are still fighting for their own air

maybe you should go back to with your gamer bullshit because you obviously know nothing about computers

Thank you based shitposter of Contrarian Snarkiness

Maybe you should make me you assblasted faggot

thank you for proving your point

Np

my point, rather

FUCK OFF YOU PIECE OF SHIT THIS ISN'T YOUR PERSONAL TECH SUPPORT.

READ THE FUCKING STICKY.

I do what I want nigga

As I said, it worked fine with another PSU. I've RMA'd the faulty one and should be getting another next week.

forgetting to put risers for my motherboard and then RMAing it as DOA
got 127/150 dollars back because they didn't have the same model

BIOS problem? I just built a compute machine that failed to POST because the BIOS needed an update.

To their credit, ASUS/Newegg was great and sent a new one. I bet they didn't even check it out lol. But it's possible it could have been the mobo AND psu, wew.

I am sorry, that must have been horrible.
No, faulty PSU I bought because of the rebate meme. It came in the day I sent out for RMA lol.

What I'm running (when the replacement psu comes in)

The eternal frog - o .

I replaced everything before realizing my cpu was dying . It's like getting a rare shiny Pokemon . Cpu failure is not very common

Sage.

You don't even know how to sage

>Sup Forums is not a personal tech support board.

It's not?

>I still don't understand, I even tested the PSU using a DMM with a paperclip in pins 15+16.
But did you understand the significance of what the DMM showed you?
Apparently not.

Hey Sup Forums, I'm grade-A stupid and trying to make a bootable usb via terminal.

I'm using this command:
>dd bs=4M if=/home/user/downloads/parabola-mate-2016.07.09-dual.iso of=/dev/sdb1 && sync

which is supposed to be correct, but I always receive:
>dd: failed to open ‘/home/user/downloads/parabola-mate-2016.07.09-dual.iso’: No such file or directory

wat fuk do

install linux

You can flip the fan around pretty easily.

I'm too dumb to figure out how to download YouTube videos as mp3 with youtube-dl. I've tried several different formats, but I either get an output claiming that it's not a valid format or it just downloads it in the regular video format.
