very interesting just like your last post, makes me wish tf2 had people paid to analyse these kind of statistics.

As setsul said the power delivery to the speakers on your mobo could be working but not another critical parts.

Yes motherboard manufacturer. The website should have a manual/spec list which should say who made the bios. Then refer to the link I put before to see if the beep tones correspond to anything. This only applies to beeps from the motherboard, not speakers as that could be anything.
E.g. My motherboards page has a spec sheet lists the bios as 128Mb AMI UEFI Legal BIOS meaning my bios is an AMI one.

First remove everything but what i said before then try boot. If it works then try adding things back one at a time till it doesnt work. If it doesnt work on that part being added it is probably that part.

Given i think the ram could well be the issue try using MemTest86 http://www.memtest86.com/
Do use it get a USB that you dont mind being wiped and another PC. Then follow the instructions, you will need to re plug in your mouse and keyboard for this.

Download the Windows MemTest86 USB image.
Right click on the downloaded file and select the "Extract to Here" option. This places the USB image and imaging tool into the current folder.
Run the included imageUSB tool, it should already have the image file selected and you just need to choose which connected USB drive to turn into a bootable drive. Note that this will erase all data on the drive.

Then power the PC off, insert the USB power it back on and let it run the default memory test.
It should give you a report, while it is possible to determine the faulty module from the report it can be easier to just rerun the test with different combinations of your ram modules to isolate the failing part. Read here for a more complete run down.

If your PC has a critical hardware issue the beeps your MB makes correspond to a beep error. The exact error depends on your BIOS, see http://brebru.com/beepcodes.html If you have a custom PC you probably have either AMI, award or phoenix. Check with your manufacturer's website.

From some googling around the issue it sounds like it could be memory. If you remove all your RAM and try turning it on what happens. If possible try borrow some compatible RAM from another PC or move around your RAM to see if you can isolate the issue to a particular slot/DIMM

I do know someone who did play on a similar system and he got around 10-20fps on dx8 with an FPS config. So not recommended. Looking at the chip you named it will support up to dual channel DDR2-1066 or DDR3-1333

Look around for an old 2nd hand office tower with an i3 or pentium anniversary edition g3258 or similar + 4gb ddr3 (dell optiplex are a good thing to search for). Then get an old 2nd hand GPU you should be able to get something like a 680/770 within your price limit.

This will obviously depend what is out there within your local area for second hand parts, plus in general the more time you spend looking the cheaper you will find thing to an extent, dont be afraid to haggle. Just remember you need more than a cpu and a gpu to make a PC, dont forget to price in OS (could be free), Motherboard, PSU, case, ram, storage. If you do buy a 2nd hand tower check what is included in it.

While that is true, our team and lowpander were the only teams to play in the first round, every other team got a bye to the 2nd round. The top teams should get byes to the first round so in the 1st round we should have faced a similar skilled team. In the first full round I agree weak teams should play strong teams.

irrelevant of our game the seeding was still incorrect as if i remember correctly Lowpander played AF very early on, when they shouldnt have met till semi finals

My worry is that the PR people saw the response, then just told us what we want. We still dont know any details on size, prize money, location etc. Multiplay still has many ways to let us down.

At least there has been progress though.

I was thinking of going but havent bought any tickets yet

While currently we do not have a prize pool, i understand players have issues with UGCs leadership. A prize pool would be possible if we had an entry fee however that is something that would have to be discussed.
The worry is that if we split the community in NA between multiple leagues it contributes even more to the decline rather than help.

The long term decline is relatively constant across the divs. It is just that open was larger so it lost more but a similar %. Fun Fact Open in S20 had more teams than the current total for the league.

Expanding into NA is an option but not one we have or plan to seriously consider until ESEA is dead. So we might start considering it soon if these predictions about ESEA turn out to be true. The question is what would an NA league of ETF2L offer over a TFCL or UGC.

expected

In the first complete round yes I agree, but not in an incomplete round. The round of 16 had a full 16 teams, however the round of 32 had only my team vs lowpander. That game should not involve any high seed teams, it should be the two lowest seeds. The top teams should all get byes to the later rounds. So if my team got matched vs low pander in a complete round i have no problem with that, some team needs to play the good teams and everyone does eventually. My issue is that we played them in the only game of the round of 32

This would be very nice, because in the first EU round my team, a new mid team went up against lowpander. Lowpander should have been a top4 seed. Because lowpander had low faceit score they had a low seed, this resulted in my team only playing one not close, not fun game. We were also the only teams in the first round not to get a bye, so we should have played a team of similar skill in the first round.

This also affected lowpander as due to them having a low seed, they a top 4 team went up against another top 4 and eventual winners arctic foxes in the round of 16. This meant that lowpander went out in 9th-16th. No offence to the teams who finished from 4th-8th but the best team in that group was a high team.

I know some teams have to play the good teams in the first round even in a properly seeded system, and if that is my team i can accept that. However there were several teams who if this was seeded by etf2l div would have been below mine. Im not expecting my team to win this or even go very far, but we at least want a chance to be able to play several games.

I will still try signup my team for the next one but if we consistently get fucked by the seedings then it will just become a waste of time. If you dont want to bother seeding the entire competition, maybe try seeding just the top 8 teams so that you dont get two top 4 teams meeting in the round of 16.

Also the system still doesnt support koth, and still has issues causing games to be played of system. It has been like this for quite a while, is faceit using the valve devs?

This video series was made for the previous election however it still applies, if you think you wont vote despite being eligible i would seriously recommend watching it. The first four videos in the series also covers other common questions around general elections.

all hail high chancellor may!
