if it is RAM you'll get bsod and a record in win panel. If it is PSU it shall simply reboot the machine randomly under any considerable load. you can run some benchmarks to push the system to the limit and check if it is hardware issue. The furry donut for gpu test, and something like Cinebench for cpu should do the tick

one of the files also contains current player pos in the world. and it can be quite an interesting find to start inside a rock 😁

I always stick to the base I build in front of one of the traders, but yes it is 4x4x4 cube on terrain level and a bigger floor straight under it where the stash and work tools are. and I usually mine beneath my base. for the harder times I add a cheese bridge to the roof and build some tent on top, put some shotguns to kill vultures and reload my machine-guns)))

it is scarce in the beginning, so you do not get enough for your basic pistol. and it is abundant late game, for me even turrets cant compensate it. so I completely removed weapons and ammo from the loot. it should only be parts/resources, rarely some finished piece. I also removed all the tools from loot. so now there is not that much sense to loot)) so I basically spend most my time at base, diggin))) welcome back to Minecraft)))

but you already have freaking vultures that don't let you use your transport mid BM) And unless you set your zeds to slowmo they gonna get ya)). Using random POIs for a BM base is a common feature. I usually have my base up for the first BM, but that's nothing of a rule, its my taste, I can fully understand why people go for POIs...

I would really prefer to have em roaming the towns/willages on 4x4 randomly entering the POIs and kicking @%$# out of zeds. So kind of imitating normal life 😁

@%$# happens, but I suppose quite soon you'll have a common intranet with China and North Korea 😁

can we have a screenshot of the glitches? I had something kind of like that when I tried running the game on `Metal` drivers on my M2 Pro

and items have slots, so if there are not enough slots to fit your mod it wont fit in

guys you still react to the trolls with 1 single post? or do you really think a sane person would register to express their hatred and disgust?

I`ll agree with all above mentioned, but I`ll add my 5cents. The average home internet in Germany sucks hard and is crazy expensive, currently working with German company, when guys work from office its okay, but as soon as they go home it becomes awful 😁, and we`re talking IT guys 😁. And yes, the best option for you guys would be to rent a server somewhere in between to host the game for you. This would half the distance lag, and you will then only be bound by quality of your own connections.

it was there all the time, we just oped tp ignore its presence. And now with the hype it got it is close to impossible to omit it.

Nothing to worry about. There a re plenty of us, old enthusiasts)) My first non s3 trio was Voodoo Rush in 97. Than GeForce 256 dropped by, than a Geforce 260 GTX, in a while another 260 GTX to add into a sli, than a 460 GTX somewhere around release of 7XX GTX series and speed it out for a 560 GTX which lasted me until 2017. Since than im a Mac Pro user 😁. The only time I was really excited and nervous about the metal was somewhere in 92-94 when the only source for games was a bag of floppies and some friends studying CS in university, so each travel to their campus and back was like walking the minefield as you could return home from a trip that took you the whole day and end up with few floppies unreadable or having damaged archives 😁. And yes, your 9700k is still a nice horse to run.

Something is wrong with the board for sure, if it doesn't light up when plugged in, but who can say what in particular without "sniffing" the board ? Did you try a different psu with minimum load possible (mean single HDD/ssd, integrated graphics/low card, no pci/other modules whatsoever, single ram stick)? Regarding the sata cables - you should see to psu manual to see the max output of the lane for the cable you use and compare it to total usage by the drives you are about to hang on it as your experience may vary😁. Personally never had to hand like 5 drives on a single cable, most I did was 3 and those were not all HDDs, so it really depends.

you do not need any cables to start your pc from MB. a screwdriver would do as it is just a momentary shortening of 2 pins that is required to start it up.
