1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

It's 2 pcie slots. I think it's just a troubleshooting light for the gpu.

 

I would always disable "onboard graphics" in the bios. Back then it was graphics on the actual MOBO, but now they have them on the cpu. But if your MOBO automatically saw/used your old GPU, I'd put money on a defective new GPU, (barring a power supply issue). Did the new card take more power, or an additional plug compared to the old one? Another thing I would do when upgrading GPUs was (while the old card was still in) uninstall ALL GPU drivers/shut down/install new card/reboot/install new drivers.
Maybe it's Windows (10/11) that works magic now... but I've always done a fresh OS install when replacing a motherboard. Maybe that's just because I learned/started on Windows XP, but I never liked having the remnants of all the old mobo drivers left in there.

 

Disabling was all fine and dandy, as long as you knew how to clear CMOS when you're not seeing anything from your off-board GPU. That was easier to explain BITD when you just had to move a jumper over for a sec.

 

yep, the "i'm really starting over" fix. Of all the upgrades ive done, none have been as impressive as the Solid state drives. SATA was great, M.2 blew me away with the boot time/game loads ffs.

 

SSD for the wins.

 

Unless you’re using it for 24/7 video surveillance; in that case HDD wins.

 

The new card has 2 power plug ins. I'm using a piggy back cable for it and both ends work on the old GPU. I ran DDU to delete all Nvidia drivers and whatever else. Even after doing that, I still have display with it. New GPU gives nothing. I sent it back to newegg today.

Also, my minecraft won't load now on my PC. All my other games will, as well as Steam. Weird.

 

I think my low fuel indicator bulb may be burnt out...
I've driven probably 20-30 miles with it pegged on E, I just want to see the damn light come on!

Here's some stairs I'm working on. One standard Dale for scale.

 

Everytime we see Dale, he's up high somewhere, like a cat

 

We love to get high

 

Happy birthday @CodyP , hope you have a great day.

 

Nice lines, that looks square and perfect, nice work JakeJake

 

Happy bday @CodyP

 

I'm pretty sure I've gone like 50+ with it laying on E before the light starts fading on and off. Still only put 23 gallons in.

 

I think we had someone say they ran their truck empty and still couldn't get 26 gallons in. I think 23 is the most for me as well.

 

I’ve run mine empty and put 25.45 gallons in it.

 

It literally died and I coasted into the gas station.

 

Another snowy day of 6-9 inches by tomorrow morning. I’m glad I don’t need to drive into work until Tuesday.

 

Unexpected high of 68 and sunny where normally would be 30s or maybe 40... approaching record of 69 set in 1931. El Nino.

 

Happy Bday @CodyP The man, the myth, the legend!

 

If anyone needs oil, Costco has full synthetic on the cheap. Two five quart jugs for about 30 bucks.

 

Doesn't their Kirkland brand get good reviews too?

 

Yeah it does. Look over at the bobistheoilguy.com forums if you want to nerd out.

 

It was a whopping 45° over here when I was changing LBJs, then when digging/planting some fig trees I grew and gave to a friend of mine as a housewarming gift.

 

Happy birthday @CodyP!

 

Did it fix the clunk?

I may use this as a reference for my wheel/tire combo as sequoias seems to have the fat-assness of DC’s. But he has 17x9 -12offset. 35x12.5r17 Geolanders. If he runs No spacer it rubs frame. If he runs a spacer; He rubs front bumper. I have no front bumper. So maybe the 17x9 and -12 will do if I run a spacer. Unfortunately I don’t think he mentions what size spacer he is running.

ill be running 33-34’s so seems like -12offset is a better starting point as opposed to 0mm offset

edit: in the comments he mentions he has 1.25” spacer but he can’t remember cause it’s been along time. Lol goddamn youtubers

 

Got a Rancho leveling kit and some new upper control arms installed on my beater F150. Also swapped the rear shocks for new ones. Wish our best gens were that easy. Was originally going to put a fox kit on it, but these ranchos came up for 250 bucks and were new. Sent the Fox setup back for a refund.
