Hardware bugs thread? >I have an original mx518 that emits a coil whine when I hold the left mouse button>had a Dell notebook that disabled the keyboard every time it was plugged in>had a copy of Intel 12400 (with iGPU) that crashed the moment you tried to install any GPU drivers. Ran fine on iGPUDo you have any stories about weird/broken hardware?
no
>>108670192i keep thinking this mouse has dents in it
>inspiron 5567>constant ACPI issues on sleep or shutdown, would take 7 business days to power off after the screen goes dark>xps 2720 that wouldn't enter the uefi setup on f2 unless a USB drive was plugged in>latitude 5300 with the same ACPI bug and a flicker on startup that just wouldn't fuck off unless cmos resetI should stop buying Dells huh
>>108670192Yesterday my desktop didn't turn on. I mean, it does for about 5 seconds and then it always shuts down.I don't feel like diagnosing. Removed all external storage and still does the same. Just plugged the laptop and moved on.
>>108670347>xpsI bought a used XPS from ebay a couple of users ago. It had a constant high pitched coil whine when it was on. Thank God the seller was cooperative and accepted the return as soon as I filed the request.
>>108670418oh that reminds me of the ASUS motherboard that just went seppuku one day and never POSTed properly afterstill seething that was gonna be my proxmox box>>108670475>coil whine from intel CPUsthat's eternal, I think it comes from how they do c-states. Happens more if you set the CPU to always run at high frequency probably cause it's going in and out of idle faster
>>108670502>that's eternalYou mean for Dell exclusively? Or just Intel in general? I've had more than a dozen of ThinkPads with Intel CPUs (old and new gens) and never had any coil whine whatsoever.
>>108670641it might be with Dell's VRMs but I've never had an Intel laptop that isn't a Dell shitboxeverything from 8th gen to 11th gen whined like an annoying dog doe
>>108670192This was by far the best mouse I ever had, rip!
>>108670192My amd gpu has a lot of bugs. But im not sure if it's driver bugs or if the hardware is cooked
>>108670805They're pretty easy to repair. Aliexpress still sells cases, cables and switches for it.
>>108670823already trashed it :(
>>108670819I had an Asus laptop with amd ryzen 5500u or something like that, I don't remember the model exactly. It would freeze randomly for a couple of seconds every once in a while. I couldn't figure out what was causing it because it wasn't dependant on what was running at the time.
>>108670192I had an Asus AM3 motherboard that one day just decided to start freezing after a few minutes. I think it was a part overheating since it'd happen faster once the machine had been on for a bit. I never figured out what the issue was.
>>108670276that was the intention
>>108670840why
>>108670192I bought a fan for my desktop that sounded like a buzzsaw when spinning
>>108670805Miss it desu,mine lasted 14 years.
>>108670819RDNA1 and RDNA3 are notoriously buggyanything else and it's probably the driver
>>108671713I have a RDNA3 correct :(
I have a G305 with an incredibly sensitive right click.I also have an MX anywhere that is super choppy in Counter Strike for some reason and the mouse wheel still detect micro movements in ratchet mode. So it sometimes scrolls in the opposite direction when I stop scrolling.They're both pretty nice otherwise but I have to switch between them for certain tasks.
>>108670805Mine still works. Somehow logitech managed to build switches with infinite durability. They won't make that mistake again
>>108671742downclocking the card (by like 10-20%) might helpor you could try to RMAas for why AMD thinks it's fine to sell buggy half-baked silicon when they have <10% discrete GPU market share, well, that's a separate discussion
>>108671689I got mine in the early 2000s, lasted me till ~2 years ago. I just replaced it with a 20€ noname mouse because of this >>108671760>Mine still works. Somehow logitech managed to build switches with infinite durability. They won't make that mistake again
