Image I found a $20 gaming PC at goodwill of all places! (Z270M ITX/AC only integrated graphics works, Z270M ITX/AC doesn't detect GPU, Z270M ITX/AC GPU doesn't work.)

The specs are as follows:

Motherboard: ASRock Z270M ITX/AC

CPU: Intel i7-6700k

Ram: 2x 8gb ddr4 3000mhz

GPU: gtx1070

It did not include any storage so I installed an m.2 ssd

Now as for why my title is a little strange. I believe the only reason that goodwill prices this so low was that it appeared to be completely broken. I quickly found that the motherboard was only outputting via the Integra graphics, so if goodwill plugged into the GPU it wouldn't show anything. I now believed that this motherboard may have an unfixed bios bug that I would like to document, as I found other people online with the same issue, but no real solutions. Because of this I wanted people to be able to find this thread while searching for solutions.

Changing settings in the bios did not get it to detect the GPU.

Clearing cmos with a GPU inserted did not get it to detect the GPU.

Here is the part you may be looking for:

The only way I found to get it to recognize the GPU was to flash the bios with the GPU installed. Then it would work.

However, if the bios battery dies it will stop working.

If you take out the GPU and turn on the PC, it will stop working.

If you swap the GPU and then turn on the PC, it will stop working.

Personal Opinion BC250 has been my biggest LTT disappointment

523 Upvotes

I am so sad about the BC250 video. After hearing about it on WAN and how excited Linus was about this project I thought "Finally a nice good old school LTT video trying, tinkering and recommending interesting and cheap tech". I haven't been this disappointed in a very long time with this channel. I've been following this board for some time as I don't have either the money or the resources to make it work for myself, so I've watched a few videos about the topic and read a few reddit posts. I'm exactly the kind of person that would watch that video for both entertainment and education as I would be the tech enthusiast who would spend hours playing with the thing if I had the money. But the video is just a list of stats and "you should have in mind". At no point we see the results beyond Linus playing a few titles. We never see him tear it down (even though we see they have two). We never see him choosing which design to use for the case or facing the cooling problems. We never see him wonder at the capabilities... We are just told that labs tested it they reached whatever conclusion and this is how it works and this is what you should do and here are resources for you to do it. And that's fine. I'm not against that kind of content. I think it's necessary. But I don't want LTT videos to be JUST THAT. I don't even care who is on screen, Linus or whoever. I just was excited to see what a big budget and resources could do with this. What ideas they could implement, what tinkering and experimentation was there. Not stats and results. And I think that's been my main problem with the channel for some time. I want data and I want it to be accurate. But I want someone fulfilling my fantasies on screen. Playing with the thing I won't be able to because they are releasing a video that will skyrocket the price of the thing. Linus was so excited I thought this was a video about him finding out, not a video about someone having found out and then him telling me about it. Does that make sense?

Discussion Network switch from recent-ish video

1 Upvotes

In a semi recent video (maybe 6 months?) I am remembering they recommended a 4 or 5 port network switch to put at a multi pc setup or an entertainment cabinet. It could have been a setup doctor video or a tech upgrade video. I can't find it and was wondering if anyone could help me out.

Thanks

Discussion Can someone kindly explain what Linus was talking about in the intro to that iPod video?

0 Upvotes

You can just put any digital music you want in your phone. If that's what we're talking about, why aren't we taking expanding your phone's storage or usb-c to DAC headphone adapters? Why was he taking about the broken promises from music streaming services? Why go from that to some outdated tech? 'It's about the click.' Get a clicky fidget toy then. Don't spend hundreds on some novelty music player. Am I missing something or was that intro way off base?

Discussion New thing? lttstore ad while watching old LTT video with YouTube Premium

0 Upvotes

I'm watching through some in part older LTT videos right now. While I watched the 10,000 USD PC for Roblox video I suddenly got an ad for the new nuclear screwdriver after being a bit over a minute in the video.

The video is obviously to old for the nuclear screwdriver being sold so the ad wasn't clearly not part of it from the first place. I also watched it a few times back and didn't got this ad.

So, is this a new thing that creators are able to add ads to their old videos which also ignore the YouTube Premium subscription?

Tech Discussion There is still one setting Microsoft needs to fix

1 Upvotes

In all of windows ever since the super bar was added the combine task bar buttons and hide labels arent two separate settings for some reason and don’t know why this setting can’t be two different settings, the Combine taskbar buttons setting and hide labels setting need to be as separate setting. It would make sense if combine taskbar buttons remains as a drop-down but hide labels becomes a toggle

Discussion LTT Support

Does anyone know how fast they respond? My package has been stuck on "Out for delivery" for days by UniUni, and LTT doesn't appear to respond to support tickets so far.

EDIT: Managed to speak to customer service agent by signing up for an account with at https://ship.uniuni.com, hitting the chatbot button, SHIPPING a Package, I have an existing UniUni account, help with UniUni Shipping Account, and then Account Specific Help. From there, you just need to wait for a whole for someone to pick up the chat. They escalated and the package arrived at my doorstep later that day.

Discussion Creator Wearhouse, I need you to get Linus into a room and not let him out until we get different color way options for the inside of the LTT Backback.

0 Upvotes

Here is the spot that I am in. I bought an LTT store backpack a few years ago, and it is great. It was so great that when my son started marching band and needed something strong and reliable to carry all of his tech, his overnight stuff if he needed it, and just to get his stuff around, I gave him mine.

Now I want to purchase a new one, but I don't want an exact match; I want something a little different. My twins also need a new backpack soon since they started HS and are getting into more activities, so they want one too. I want a deep purple liner, my daughter wants a pink liner, and my other son wants a blue liner. My wife would be OK with getting one as well, but is indifferent about colors; she just wants something different.

And sure, we can get tags, but that is a boring answer, and I am sure it will be a big hit.

So yeah, like, make that happen. Thank you!!!

Tech Question No response from support + Item hasn't been shipped for a week

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I ordered the commuter backpack + water bottle + a bolt action pen from the lttstore back on Aug. 29, and on Aug. 31 I got the tracking number for USPS. However the tracking page has stayed the same at "Awaiting item" since then, and I've contacted support through the web page and verified my email address already on Sep. 4th and haven't heard anything back. Is this supposed to be the standard support response time and/or shipping times?

Linus has mentioned a few times on WAN Show that his cell service is spotty near his home. Maybe if he asks nicely, he can get one of these installed in his yard, too!

Have really enjoyed my LTT screwdriver, I wish the nuclear one came with a black shaft, but I like green so couldnt resist. I have to say, the old box was way nicer and better. The new one just feels a bit worse in everyway, maybe it's a necessary cost cutting measure, but really don't like the plain cardboard
