technology

[pale quartz]

I have them disabled for non mutual friends so I don't see them

yes, they don't tell a user if they're not seen

[mighty crag]

btw did u read my disk partitiom?

[pale quartz]

no

[mighty crag]

ok

so

[pale quartz]

because I don't see your messages lol

[mighty crag]

my DISK C has 40gb space

And Disk E (the only other disk) has 78.5 gb space

rest i have an ssd of 256 gb (out of the pc not inside)

[pale quartz]

and what disk has the fragmented partitions?

[mighty crag]

thinking to put that in

[mighty crag]

......wdym

in disk c i have windows

installed

did u mean the disk which has been partitioned

[pale quartz]

yes

[mighty crag]

C

[pale quartz]

and the total capacity of that is 256?

[mighty crag]

no

means when my pc waas build my there was ONLY C DRIVE

i partitioned it and created E

[pale quartz]

so disk c and e are the same disk, not separate disks, you are referring to virtualised disks, which is why you were confusing me before

[mighty crag]

hm

when we start windows after installing it asks for

disk partition

[pale quartz]

yes because you have split them on a single drive

[mighty crag]

means do you want to create an another drive?

[pale quartz]

what you need to do first is delete those excess partitions and merge everything into a single c partition only

[mighty crag]

i havent split it was only one drive

[pale quartz]

that's what I'm saying

[mighty crag]

english plz

[pale quartz]

splitting the drive, into multiple virtualised partitions

[mighty crag]

yes

[pale quartz]

you need those together not separate

[mighty crag]

oh.........

so will that help?

in in-game performance

and how much space then do i need free?

[pale quartz]

it will help in so far as the game requires the cache space which it currently can't access, I have no idea if it's going to help your performance, it's just what you should have at a minimum

[mighty crag]

i have a total of 118.~ GB space total in my pc currently (about to increase it soon)

[pale quartz]

for that drive?

[mighty crag]

both drives

[pale quartz]

what is the space on your partitioned drive

the total

[mighty crag]

dude TOTAL IS 118

GB

[pale quartz]

ok, chill out, you're misconfusing different terms, and you're making me get confused in the process

by drive, it is the physical disk

a partition, is your segmented sectors

[mighty crag]

dude listen i have 2 disks in pc and combinde total space of both of them is 118 gb

[pale quartz]

you have 1 disk, it has multiple partitions

[mighty crag]

yes

[pale quartz]

it is not 2 disks

[mighty crag]

not multiple only 1

[mighty crag]

ok

[pale quartz]

yes, and that has 118GB?

[mighty crag]

yes

MY PC SPACE IS ONLY 118GB

is that not confusing now?

[candid flame]

but you said you have a 256gb ssd

how is it that you only have 118gb

[mighty crag]

THATS IN MY HAND R8 NOW WANNA EAt?

[pale quartz]

so what you need to do is combine them together and have windows on that only, if you have the game installed on the separate SSD, you will need around 20GB free, on the main drive

so the excess partition (e) will need to be deleted, and then it combined with the c one

[mighty crag]

after re-combing those partitions i need to have 20-25 gb free disk spac eu mean?

[pale quartz]

yes

[mighty crag]

and it will help me in increased pc speed?

[pale quartz]

again I can't answer that

[mighty crag]

i dont have hard drive i cant believe damn 💀

[pale quartz]

it's what you require for a minimum satisfactory experience

[mighty crag]

a hard drive?!?1

[pale quartz]

no..

[mighty crag]

oh ok

[pale quartz]

the free space..

[mighty crag]

ok

ok

im inserting an ssd of 256 gb

in my pc today

so now do i need to combine those disks or take all my games to 256gb sds which im gonna install?

and free up that partition E

[pale quartz]

if you mean they are currently installed on the e partition, yes they will need redownloaded/transferred over to the separate SSD

[mighty crag]

ok im installing ssd today(or tommrow) and then im gonna rmove all my games form E drive and paste it in that new ssd

[pale quartz]

ok

[mighty crag]

btw im about to get another pc with i7 4th gen 8gb ram and dedicated GPU so will get an fps boost in bf3 as compared to my pc now? (that pc will have aroung 500gb space)

my pc specs i told u

i5 4590 8gb ram intel hd 4600

[pale quartz]

I have no idea

[mighty crag]

ig ill get a proper 1gb graphic dedicated in i7 4th gen

[pale quartz]

most likely not

[mighty crag]

😢

[pale quartz]

it depends on the dedicated card

[candid flame]

what's the dedicated gpu

[mighty crag]

r8 now? intel hd 4600

[pale quartz]

no, the one you're getting

[mighty crag]

idk

it will be

the default one

which comes with i7 4770k

[pale quartz]

that doesn't help

[candid flame]

that's not a dedicated gpu

[pale quartz]

you need to know the model

[candid flame]

that's the same one you have right now

it's equally shit

[pale quartz]

if it's default, it's not dedicated, it's a iGPU

[mighty crag]

of what

[candid flame]

[pale quartz]

of the discrete GPU, which you aren't having as you said

[mighty crag]

i7 dosent matteR? i have i5 4590 r8 now

[pale quartz]

you will see no performance improvement as he mentioned

the iGPU is identical to the one you see already

[mighty crag]

yea i have Igpu

in this pc

and ill be having in another one too

with just i7

[pale quartz]

and it will be the same iGPU

[mighty crag]

an improvement in processor

[pale quartz]

it is not an improvement, that matters

[mighty crag]

i dont think it will be intel hd 4600

[candid flame]

it won't improve anything

[pale quartz]

put it this way

you will see no gain from the change

[mighty crag]

what IGPU comes with i7 4770 ?

[pale quartz]

the iGPU is the same

the architecture of the processor is the iGPU variant

[molten flame]

Minecraft at 30 fps moment

[pale quartz]

not the model of the processor

[mighty crag]

of i catually have 112 fps in minecraft its a relief from bf3 15 fps

[molten flame]

[mighty crag]

sed i cant buy a dedicated card:(

[candid flame]

why are you getting a super old cpu when you can just get a new modern pc for more or less the same price

[pale quartz]

^

[mighty crag]

dude what im making that pc in 72 dollars (im not an american but im asian so my currency ruppees in which my pc is gonna be build is this much)

[candid flame]

save money now, stop buying old craps

[mighty crag]

dude if i buy a gt 730

will it help?

or gt 740

[pale quartz]

no

that architecture of graphics card has ceased support

you will need something relatively modern

[mighty crag]

do you know geonix company?

[candid flame]

you can literally save money for a few months and get a newish system, stop buying old stuff to replace old stuff, you are wasting money

[pale quartz]

listen to his advice

[mighty crag]

they are selling gt730 4gb ddr3 graphic card at very low price shal it help in game

[mighty crag]

im not using money thats my family elder whos using

people say dedicated graphics card is only for those who play games

and for normal pc use u dont need

[pale quartz]

no.. it's not lol

[mighty crag]

so can u explain me i wil tell this to them

and ig ill get a graphics car

[mighty crag]

..

[pale quartz]

as I said that architecture of graphics card has ceased support, it is not guaranteed to work with games

[mighty crag]

WHAT ABOUT GIGABYTE GeForce GV-N710D3-2GL 2GB?

[pale quartz]

it is the same architecture..

at a minimum you need something like a rx 580

but listen to his advice, your entire system needs replacing except the drives

you're better off saving money for a better one than buying a bad one

[candid flame]

how old are you? you probably need someone to explain computers to you in your local language. Find a youtube channel or look for an online forum in your local language

[mighty crag]

im 15 tbh

so

i dont have control on money

if i had

i would have bought litreally nothin

and saved money for a good pc

but here we need devices

[candid flame]

yeah so you don't have money at the moment, stop buying old hardware, save the money your parents give you

[mighty crag]

and this is because of family memebers

thats y my parents are buying these pcs for just work which my cosuin do and he will go after some time and that pc will be abandoned at home and probably ill use it thats y its not fully build till now

i can try my best to alteast get a 2gb graphic card

becuase it will be made

i cant delay it

@pale quartz

dude i have seen reviews of people who use gt710 2GB on their shit ass pcs (one guy have ddr2 3gb ram intel pentiuM) and he said he got a hell lot improvement in games like gta 4 he used to get 15fps now he gets 80fps and in cod games he has seen improvement ( i really dont wanna play latest games which need a lot of heavy graphic card i need that games which have nice graphics they are lgith and multiplayer is working and ig GT 710 cann hhelp me its also affordable )

MS try not to force down AI bs in everything challenge (impossible)

[pale quartz]

I mean the utility itself is useful so

[brave sundial]

Adding stuff like this only slows it more down

The redesign was perfect, they should've left it at that

[pale quartz]

it doesn't have a performance impact though?

[quick locust]

that's a lot of yapping while i was away

iGPUs dynamically allocate system memory up to 50% of your system RAM, the listed amount is for old software.

So changing the value here doesn't do anything for you

[quick locust]

For nvidia you need 900 series and up for driver support (through, 900 series is next for chopping block)

In this case, the main memory IS the vram lel

[quick locust]

Just need Mr Roboto to play on startup now

[lost cargo]

Free frame gen?

[candid flame]

it's a very cool software

Does it actually work?

[candid flame]

yes it does

[lost cargo]

You use it?

[candid flame]

I bought it years ago to scale old NES games to native res, but they keep adding cool shit to it

yeah

I tested it with watch dogs legion

from 60fps to 100fps with FG

[lost cargo]

Imma check it out when I get home

[candid flame]

barely felt any latency

it has some ghosting but it doesn't bug me that much

[lost cargo]

Rtx 3080 dosent support Frame Gen tho. But it does have NIS.

I could also use NVIDIA Control panel for NIS tho.

[candid flame]

you don't need an rtx card to use the fg tech of that app

I think AMD is also testing their frame gen for dx9 games

[lost cargo]

Mmm 🤔

Does the app have FSR3 frame gen?

[candid flame]

nope, it's a different tech

[lost cargo]

What’s the difference between NIS from that app compared to NVIDIA Control panel NIS?

[candid flame]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SgA7M_XhQw

[candid flame]

same thing

for cards that don't have NIS

like amd or intel cards

[lost cargo]

RTX have DLSS, NIS and 40+ series have FG.

[brave sundial]

Not as impressive as the fsr3 mods but still cool for games that don't support the former

It's basically universal right?

That's awesome

[candid flame]

yeah fsr 3 mod is in-game which probably will have better latency

yup

[vagrant idol]

hey I'm using a JBL Flip 4 as my audio output. It sounds really crappy when I'm playing 2042. It sounds great for any other program on my pc. I usually turn it off but would love to use it. Anyone have solutions? I tried the different audio settings from auto-stereo-mono etc but none of them made any difference

[candid flame]

is that a bluetooth speaker?

are you playing on pc?

[mighty crag]

@pale quartz i cant merge those drives i tried 3rd party tools and disk management too they are non adjacent and when i tried with 3rd party too toh first make them adjacent i was successful but then when i tried to merge an error came (not enough disk space) i cleaned everything and juts left windows os files and other important files (i even removed chrome and ms office) but still it didnt merge

[vagrant idol]

it's a bluetooth speaker and yes im on pc

[candid flame]

2042 has the tendency to use all of your cpu, leaving no room for the wireless audio driver

plug it in directly to your pc, should be better

[vagrant idol]

It sounds fine from my laptop speakers

Ok i'll see if there's a way to plug it in directly. USB connection simply chagres it

[candid flame]

you should play with headphone anyway, use the headphone that comes with your phone

[pale quartz]

yes you need to delete them and recreate them

[vagrant idol]

Yeah i do have a gaming headset I can use

[candid flame]

yeah iirc that jbl speaker is mono audio so you can't tell where you are being shot from

would be a bad gaming experience

[vagrant idol]

thanks Cats

[candid flame]

dev's also making it open-source next month so that's pog

but I don't think it will ever have FSR 2 or FSR 3

since those need data from the game and he's trying to make this app universal

implementing fsr 2 support would get people who use it get banned in multiplayer game since it has to hook into your game iirc

[mighty crag]

wdym i did it but i cant format C drive dude my OS is on it and when i try to merge it says error not enough free space

i have made them adjacent drives by deleting one partitioned between them and reallocating it in C

but still not enough space to merge them that 3rd party site shows this error

[pale quartz]

well you don't have much choice so

[mighty crag]

???

soooooooooooo..................................................wat

[pale quartz]

so you need to delete them if you want it merged

[mighty crag]

os?

wtf

[pale quartz]

yes

[mighty crag]

my pc will start hella crashing

without OS do you think i will be able to merge it?

[pale quartz]

you need to format the partitions install a fresh OS and merge during the boot process

[mighty crag]

ill litreally have to tranform my 30gb pen drive into bootable OS one to do it 😭

[pale quartz]

correct

[mighty crag]

but that pen drive contains bf4 😭

[pale quartz]

[midnight crypt]

Yeah this ain't how you do serious business

[ivory creek]

MSI is supposed to release a new pc monitor with built in ai that help you identify where enemies are in games like League Of Legends

definitely a scam

[candid flame]

is that considered cheating

[ivory creek]

idk

it sure is cheating imo tho but idk if their antihack can detect it

[molten coral]

yes

[pale quartz]

its impossible to detect the feature itself

users using it, potentially

[candid flame]

moba is basically fog of war the game

having an AI helping you see where the enemies are

lol

[ivory creek]

will pobably end up with new anticheat that completely blocks players who use that monitor from starting the game

[lost cargo]

There is a thing called AI Aimbot. Where it’s aimbot but make it realistic but can be undetectable by the AC.

[candid flame]

and valve have developing an AI anti-cheat for a while to combat that

but gamers still seethe

because they find a cheater in their cs match

[pale quartz]

will never happen lol

[lost cargo]

AI anti cheat is a great thing. It all depends of how well they do it and train it to be.

[candid flame]

yeah they have been training it for a while, at the same time avoiding using kernel AC due to so many ethical issues with that one

I have never seen anyone begging for being spied on like gamers lol

Riot's now forcing their garbage AC to all Riot games, not just Valorant

it's bullshit

[quick locust]

I run linux so none of those can touch my kernel

[candid flame]

none of those games would work on linux too

[quick locust]

[candid flame]

kernel AC is stupid

So i just bought BF1 yesterday, i have xbox ultimate and everything, but its still saying i have to reset my password, anybody know how to fix that?

[pastel marten]

I found a laptop with 24GB VRAM. Although, it's not for gaming and costs base value $6,000

[lost cargo]

Is there a way to make my second SSD primary?

[pastel marten]

Yes

[lost cargo]

How?

[pastel marten]

If I did a switch I clean my pc of random files, reset/and switch in bios

But you shouldn't need to do all that

[lost cargo]

I know the bios thing I just don’t want to fresh my PC lol

[pastel marten]

You don't need to fresh it entirely

[lost cargo]

Wym?

Does it read everything from the current SSD as well even tho the second SSD is primary?

I just don’t want to drag PC but have everything on my new SSD

[pastel marten]

Throw everything you wanna keep folder

No.. if you make secondary primary, it'll need the OS and also will it the new primary

If you want.. could do your secondary Linux or something

That way can boot on either

[lost cargo]

That’s the main issue. I don’t want a secondary OS

I thought the OS is linked to Mobo set of storage

[pastel marten]

Most OS on PC will boot from primary

While it's not required.. that's just how they do usually

Is your current primary not a ssd?

[lost cargo]

They are both SSDs. The new SSD is faster than my current SSD rn

They are both M.2s

[pastel marten]

That makes sense why you would want to switch

[lost cargo]

5k speed vs 7k speed.

lol 😂

[pastel marten]

I recommend the bios way to avoid errors. And there are tutorials all over the web on how

[lost cargo]

Also the new SSD is 4TB compared to current is 1TB

[pastel marten]

Word, could easily use the 1TB for.. photos and videos

Photos and videos won't need that 7k

[lost cargo]

I use it for everything. I just want my primary boot up first and main for games.

[pastel marten]

I almost dropped $4,200 yesterday on a new laptop. It has 16GB VRAM. 4TB ssd, 24 CPU cores

[pastel marten]

For sure. Would you like me to link a video tut?

[lost cargo]

I don’t have an extra Win key for OS. The win key is linked to my current SSD

I thought there was an app to make it primary but no win key is needed and no fresh wipe needed for the pc

[pastel marten]

Well you can go in bios to do that, without refresh.. note: I recommend the partial wipe anyway

[lost cargo]

Is the thing im trying to do is migrate SSDs

[pastel marten]

No I don't think ao

So*

You want the fast SSD to be your boot drive

What OS?

Win10/11?

[lost cargo]

11 because I don’t like 10

[pastel marten]

Moment

So like.. no os on secondary (yet) right?

[lost cargo]

None, I also don’t have an extra key as well

[pastel marten]

So you have a flash drive?

[lost cargo]

Huh?

For wins 11 boot app?

[pastel marten]

Well I was thinking you could use flash drive to copy your os

Than put it on secondary

[lost cargo]

Idk if I need a key for that tho

[pastel marten]

Nope

It should copy the key as well

[lost cargo]

Mmm 🤔 I don’t wanna see activate windows on my screen xD

[pastel marten]

I highly doubt that would be the case

[pastel marten]

Lemme see if there is a bios method to pull the OS while doing the thing

There is a way

I private messaged you.. and I've got to go for now. Hopefully that helps man

[pale quartz]

there is no reinstallation required, if windows is installed on that second SSD simply change the boot priority in your BIOS, it will boot to it as the first drive

[lost cargo]

It’s not installed on second SSD

I also don’t have a key either to reactivate windows on it

[pale quartz]

deregister the key associated with your current drive and reinstall windows on the second, you will be able to activate it there

[lost cargo]

How do I do deregister. Also I bought the PC from my other friend so I don’t know what the key is

[pale quartz]

windows settings activation, there's a option to deregister it

?

you're weird

[midnight sequoia]

Never mind

[dry pike]

Only if it's a retail version 🙂

[lost cargo]

It don’t even give me an option to de register it

[pale quartz]

might not be retail ^ if so

[lost cargo]

My friend bought the key. And he doesn’t know where it’s at. When I bought this PC from him

He had every box but the key code

[pale quartz]

it's probably a OEM key, if so it wouldn't be able to be re-registered anyways

the key itself is tied to your Microsoft account, you "may" be able to re-activate it on the new SSD

[lost cargo]

So… I can’t make my new SSD primary. Oof unless I buy a new key

[pale quartz]

well you can try the reactivation

no harm in doing so

[lost cargo]

I can’t

[pale quartz]

you can, you just need to sign into the account

[lost cargo]

My windows account?

[pale quartz]

yes

Microsoft account*

if it's local it won't work

[lost cargo]

Wym local?

[pale quartz]

if it's your Microsoft login it's the same one you use to login to Xbox etc

if it's a windows local account then it doesn't have this

[lost cargo]

Yea it is, my Microsoft account on the PC.

[pale quartz]

yeah so you just login to that on the other ssd

[lost cargo]

So I make the second one primary in bios first right?

[pale quartz]

yes

it has to have windows flashed first though

after that make it primary

[lost cargo]

That what I have to do anyways

So I need to have a usb windows installer? When I make it primary in bio

[pale quartz]

yes

[lost cargo]

Ok. I need to flash my USB and add wins on it first.

Idk if windows made the OS linked to mobo now set of SSD. I don’t know if it’s true.

For the key/activation or whatever it is

The license, that what it is. I thought the license is tied to mobo now

[pale quartz]

this is in regards to if a key stays activated, not in regards to new activation

[lost cargo]

I see, welp I’m setting it primary rn and install it from USB. So we will see xD

It’s telling me to activate the key. Welp. That sucks

I didn’t wanna buy a new key

I’ll just use its storage and still boot from the 1TB one.

[lost cargo]

I figured it out. Wooo 🥳

[lost cargo]

The key stayed active after I installed wins 11 pro on the new SSD.

I installed the pro from the windows installation because the PC have pro already lol 😂

[toxic wigeon]

Fuuuck

[lost cargo]

Nvidia isnt the bad people. people make them look bad by doing shit like this

[toxic wigeon]

They did withhold 30 series gpus to artificially cuck the market so they would constantly be sold at a high price if I remember correctly.

They're your typical scummy corpo. Why do you think we no longer have EVGA cards.

[lost cargo]

i have a evga 3080 rn best brand i love so far

[toxic wigeon]

The only EVGA 40 series to ever exist in public hand is a 4090.

Man it would have been nice to indulge on an evga card.

[lost cargo]

oof, only a 4090

[mighty crag]

@pale quartz hello dude! i just tried whatever i could and i got few errors like (operating system not found) but still i managed to reinstall windows 10 with format everythnig option and now my drives are finally merged(it happened 2 days ago but i was not here)

[nocturne drift]

I'm glad evga no longer carries nvidia.

Their 30 series was soo bad when we stopped receiving their card cause the break up we celebrated.

Having best rma ever doesn't help your trash pcb that results in mountain full of rma cards.

Saved alot of companies time and resources.

As for Intel, literally no point to make 14900ks. I already see some 13th gen bsoding from silicone not hitting spec. If the enthusiast wanna tune, top intel cpu beats 7800X 3D in gaming anyways. The last thing I wanna see is intel cpus becomes degrading bsoding zen2 and zen3s.

[candid flame]

what do you mean no point? the point is to make money from fools

[nocturne drift]

U right. I just don't want to see intel push things hard to make stuff unstable, but I shouldn't care, I am just too nice helping 10 people with their degrading zen2 and zen3 cpus not hitting spec. I recently just ignore troubleshoot and people who need help cause I can't be bothered.

After the 9 randos online I helped my friend in aus bsod. Like I can't catch a break.

[fleet abyss]

It’s official my ps5 broke after 3 months and 22 days

Time to wait for however long jbhifi take to fix the thing

[lost cargo]

Broke by itself?

[quick locust]

What

[cold gust]

[fleet abyss]

Yeah hdmi port stopped working, apparently it’s been quite common recently

[rose spade]

@toxic wigeon yeah I upgraded to a 5800x3d from a 3700x mainly due to older games

[toxic wigeon]

Oh NICE.

[lost cargo]

Oof 😓

[toxic wigeon]

How's that serving you?

[rose spade]

it was $100 off

so far so good, the cooler is huge though

idle temp is 50 which...honestly...not bad

air cooler

literally if my cooler was 2mm bigger, it would not fit in my case

[toxic wigeon]

hahaha

[rose spade]

@toxic wigeon hopefully I get back in the mood for FO4VR and I can see how high I can get the FPS, that game is really CPU limited too

but so far, I can tell in stalker I'm 100% cpu limited, cause I got the FPS up to like 114 on 1080p, which is probably much higher than what it would have been before, but I didn't check so I can't compare directly sadly

[toxic wigeon]

Tech is fun.

[rose spade]

yea it is

I kind of felt bad about buying this cause my life is fucked atm and I live with my parents

but I can afford it so I said fuck it

[toxic wigeon]

As long as it takes to be honest, Things aren't looking so hot right now.

Just find something you like and are good at and work off of that.

[pale quartz]

at 1080p you will hit IPC bottlenecks almost immediately, unless the GPU is much worse

[toxic wigeon]

I'm looking into network cabling for a career.

And I will NOT climb up those fucking mobile towers.

[rose spade]

thats the issue, I need to go to school badly but idk what for

[toxic wigeon]

Unless I was guaranteed a good bonus.

I'll be honest.

Starting off is extremely difficult.

It took me a long time to know what I wanted to do.

[rose spade]

on fo4vr for example, 3700x to 5800x3d is about a 20+ fps improvement or more with any mid to high end gpu

because of dx11 drawcalls or something

but yeah a lot of games it won't matter

but I play a lot of weird games

[toxic wigeon]

It's good to have a good processor anyways.

[pale quartz]

zen 2 itself is quite slow, the uplift to 3 is significant so this is why its there, but your scaling from here will decrease

[rose spade]

it seems for a lot of ppl its not that difficult

[toxic wigeon]

It really depends.

But you shouldn't compare yourself and just move on.

[rose spade]

some people 'know' at the age of like 16

[toxic wigeon]

I'm a hypocrite cause I compare myself a lot to other people.

But I try to work with what I have.

[pale quartz]

i think i was one of the rare few who knew from nursery what i wanted to

[rose spade]

idk, its easier said than done for sure, I can't even clean my room these days, its bad

situationship gf finally met someone so now I'm kind of looking around like oh man I'm fucked, I need to do something. but mostly the motivation just isn't there. idk

[toxic wigeon]

Money motivates me to be honest.

Cause then with the monies I can buy as much fast food I want.

[rose spade]

well, I'm bumming so that doesn't even do it

even though I makes me feel like a pos for not paying rent

[toxic wigeon]

It's your situation.

[rose spade]

I'm going to just have to force myself to go to school

if I have to change after a semester to something else, then oh well, better than doing nothing

[toxic wigeon]

I rely on government funds for half of my income, other in work. And I only just found out what I want to do after 4 years living in this house.

Ah yeah.

I'm love tech and I'm good with physical labour which is why i want to become a network cabler.

[rose spade]

its hard to get started doing stuff after giving up for like a decade

[pale quartz]

no shame in starting later

everybody finds out their thing in different ways

[toxic wigeon]

I almost truly gave up once.

[rose spade]

as long as you're okay with getting dirty, I hear its a decent job, plus I think you can move up to other positons but I'm not positive about that

[toxic wigeon]

So I feel you.

Honestly it's whatever. I only care that it's a thing that's future proof.

And kinda fun.

You could go into cybersecurity, Or you could work on software.

[rose spade]

yea, aint no robots doing that, at least...not within the century!

[pale quartz]

well

they already are

[rose spade]

NOOoooo

[toxic wigeon]

I remember a decade a go there was tonnes of controversy over the self serve checkouts.

[rose spade]

yea

[toxic wigeon]

Fuck. Like that's the worse we'd ever go through.

[rose spade]

this is still the beginning

[toxic wigeon]

Yep I bet it's gonna get worse.

[pale quartz]

the concerns now are warranted, this "revolution", is different

[rose spade]

if we ever reach AGI, it'll be chaos for sure imo

[toxic wigeon]

The damage caused by this is extensive.

[pale quartz]

there are jobs that will be totally eliminated, a decent amount in certain industries

[toxic wigeon]

There are no regulations to this shit.

[pale quartz]

its already starting

[toxic wigeon]

AI is good to support.

As in.

It can assist in a lot of things.

[rose spade]

yea

[toxic wigeon]

But the fact that it's gone this far, replacing jobs.

I fucking hate it.

[rose spade]

will certainly be disruptive and these days, I know that means politics gets bad so I'm not looking forward to some of the issues in the future

[toxic wigeon]

It's plaguristic, incestious garbage.

[pale quartz]

expect a lot of pain to begin from next year

[toxic wigeon]

I reckon AI will be good for graphic cards because it could take a massive load off.

[pale quartz]

is already used for them

[toxic wigeon]

Like that's one of the good things I see from it.

Oh yeah.

[lost cargo]

Nvidia is also improving the AI a lot with their Tech

[toxic wigeon]

DLSS 3?

[pale quartz]

stuff i cant disclose

[toxic wigeon]

Ah of course.

[pale quartz]

but much more sophisticated things than dlss

internally it is used a lot

[toxic wigeon]

I know it's big in google and all that.

Even before this explosion.

Really the biggest issue with this AI garbage is that it's easily accessible and like what people do, They'll corrupt its use.

Oh well. My schizo rant over.

[pale quartz]

its not realistic to say you can stop that

these things are generic inference models, there's always going to be a way to use them for certain things

[lost cargo]

The world can also turn into “I, Robot” movie in the future

[rose spade]

hah want to hear something funny

my hdmi cable apparently stopped running 144hz, and I didn't even notice

[toxic wigeon]

Weird.

[rose spade]

probably cause its a short cable and bent a tiny bit

[pale quartz]

there will be a mass rollout happening this year, google will be implementing gemini into all their IoT products

[rose spade]

but thankfully I had a DP cable to use, idk why I wasn't using it

[pale quartz]

so expect a personal assistant, an actual one, on your phone/watch/speaker, to one near you

[rose spade]

wait, it went back again 😬

wtf

[toxic wigeon]

I hate assistants in general.

I hate speaking into my device for it to do something.

[rose spade]

maybe you can get used to it

[toxic wigeon]

I talk to myself a lot and the only time I speak to myself alone.

[rose spade]

I hate videos, idk why, but I prefer to read, and i've been fucked at least once cause I didn't watch a 15 min video

[pale quartz]

its just more efficient than typing, itll feel weird at first, but youll adopt it

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah I guess.

[pale quartz]

you can use either anyways

[toxic wigeon]

Like oh pair phone to fridge and have it run cooler I guess.

But press button yes.

[lost cargo]

It’s the definition of laziness. I barely use AI on the phone tbh. Never been my thing but nice to have.

[toxic wigeon]

Fuck If I wanted to use AI I would use it for research.

Nothing else.

[lost cargo]

ChatGPT for the win

[pale quartz]

i have essentially fully adopted it for work

i very rarely code manually now

[rose spade]

I've tried it but without paying, info is out of date or its censored and refuses to cover the topic

[pale quartz]

the GPT 3.5 model is very bad, if you want to use it properly, you need the paid models

[rose spade]

idk how I'd ever be able to get into software, I just have so little motivation. It's awful. It's easier for me to do things if I have to go somewhere

[lost cargo]

GPT tryna make money

[pale quartz]

definitely isnt for the faint hearted

burnout is very common within a few years

But holy fuck I need ritalin for this shit.

[lost cargo]

[pale quartz]

they dont compete

different models that each feature is trained on

[lost cargo]

True true.

[pale quartz]

the neural network for RTX compute is very different to the one for GPT

[rose spade]

have a good night fellas

[lost cargo]

Even for the AI RTX chat?

[pale quartz]

yes

[lost cargo]

🤔

[pale quartz]

nvidia make the GPU's that GPT uses for acceleration, they very do everything themselves where they can, because they can do what they want to do better rather than relying on someone externally

[toxic wigeon]

OH YEAH

There's this AI voice changer that works off your card.

[molten flame]

Do you China will have competition in gaming performance?

[pale quartz]

they already do to some degree

the gaming performance for china is very, very young, but their compute where it matters has been relatively strong, it will take time to get on the same level as intel/AMD/Nvidia

they will get there eventually though, china is the biggest gaming market on the planet

most consumer pcs there run on western nodes, not Chinese (SMIC or others), so there hasn't been the demand internally in the market for those targets, but as parity approaches, that will catch up

hasnt china banned online gaming tho or something

[candid flame]

they tried to, then lost like $40 billions in a day so they had to revert that law

[pale quartz]

no they didn't revert the law

it was never banned, there were curfews set in place which children could only play games for (xyz time for), those laws are still in place as before

[candid flame]

oh those have been in place for a while yeah but recently they announced that they would crack down on spending in video game, but it got so much pushback from Tencent and NetEase they decided not to go through with it

I think this is what he was asking about

[pale quartz]

[midnight crypt]

i would also hide if i was being hunted

[ivory creek]

so i just read that tensor cores handle ai and things like dlss, and rtcores raytracing? im down to buy a new line of nvidia cards without rt cores and more focus on tensor cores alone

for gaming ofc

[candid flame]

don't think they will make any of those anymore

[pale quartz]

yes

[pale quartz]

will never happen, RT cores are not just used for raytracing, the cores are used for mathematical processes aswell which can leverage it in a same form of acceleration, tensor and RT complement each other, they are not distinct

[ivory creek]

cool

i couldnt care less bout raytracing tho but i love dlss

and other ai implements

[pale quartz]

it wouldn't make any sense having a GPU that had only tensor cores, the OFA requires both to accelerate its compute properly (for frame generation), things are a lot more intertwined than the core names give them credit for

[ivory creek]

i hope rtss will be updated soon with the new super cards , and made so it works with EA anticheat

probably just wishful thinking tho

Erm there's user.cfg but that's kinda like a last resort.

I just remembered that.,

[rotund pond]

i thought id be good cuz i peeped the recommended specs and for cpus they put i5 4790

and i got a i5 12500

thought i was way passed it lol

[pale quartz]

user.cfg doesn't work anymore, you can't fix max utilisation except by having a frame cap

[rotund pond]

could it be shaders?

cuz i saw a loading symbol in the bottom left the whole time

[pale quartz]

no

[rotund pond]

ai

[pale quartz]

if the game is rendering too high then it needs additional computational resources, can't have it both ways

either cap the frame rate low or you'll need to adjust to it

[rotund pond]

damn

[pale quartz]

what happens when you're core bound

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah the specs for the game are a lie.

Anybody know how to figure out why I can’t find any Bluetooth drivers in my device manager?

I do have three Bluetooth services in task manager services tho? Bluetooth support service is running and the other two services are not? I’ve downloaded all the optional updates, checked my windows was up to date, etc. looked on google and basically did all the recommended fixes

Except I couldn’t do the like first thing on most of those troubleshooting steps bc they say to go to the Bluetooth tab in device manager and I don’t even got a button :’)

[midnight crypt]

Because you probably don't have Bluetooth on your motherboard

[hoary tulip]

Anyone else’s pc stay at 79-81c while in game

80c most of the time ?

[pale quartz]

is a perfectly normal temperature

anything up to 95 degrees is in specification and to be expected

[molten flame]

4070Ti Super isn't fast enough over the regular 4070Ti to justify value

7900XTX, XT and 4080 Super are better choices

[toxic wigeon]

I feel like it's something to get people to reconsider to upgrade.

Even I'm thinking of going for a 4080S midway through the year considering its MSRP will be the same as the 7900xtx.

(Hopefully that's enough time for the prices to drop cause shiny new thing)

[molten flame]

4080 Super won't be MSRP in it's lifetime, trust me it will be close to 4090 price because retailers are evil

[toxic wigeon]

I can hope and cope... It got to the point where the 4080 was only a hundred more dollars over the 7900xtx so we'll see what this drives them to do.

Erm what was the term? Paper, paper something not paper weight but paper market? Where the prices of the product are inflated as fuck on release because of demand and profits.

[molten flame]

4080 Super being $200 less than 4080 is just a fantasy, it will immediately shoot up to $1500 after the first day

[hoary tulip]

Even with a ryzen 75800x3d paired with a 240 h100i AIO?

[pale quartz]

yes

[toxic wigeon]

I'm not expecting a similar drop.

[pale quartz]

ryzen will auto boost itself as high as possible to achieve the highest possible single core boosts within the 95 degree thermal limit

ignore the temperatures, they mean nothing

[toxic wigeon]

Holy shit the 4070 TI is practically on clearance sale.

[molten flame]

$50 off = clearance sale

[hoary tulip]

Ok then

[toxic wigeon]

Well I'm only calling it that because I know they have to get rid of stock for the new cards. It's not actually that.

[pale quartz]

prices wont drop much, dont be expecting huge ones

the 4080 is already discontinued to keep its second hand value high

[molten flame]

yep

Nvidia doesn't lower prices, they create new segments

only retailers are the ones reducing the prices

not Nvidia

[toxic wigeon]

Im aware.

[midnight crypt]

Lowering?

Nah they're just pricing the new cards even higher

[candid flame]

the 4080 is only like 50$ more than the 4070 super isn't it

[ivory creek]

the noctua cooled 4080 cost almost as much as cheaper 4090 here lol

[silk cove]

i just had to do some ungodly things but it somehow worked👍

[hoary tulip]

Would the 4070 super be a good upgrade from the 3060ti

[dry pike]

It would be an upgrade. How good depends on a combination of factors on your end, like how much you value the FPS increase vs. what else you could be using the money on

[storm osprey]

yea thats a loaded question

[crisp lance]

girl that is not a loaded question

[storm osprey]

4070 super is definitely better than a 3060ti, but you have to consider if the rest of his hardware is "relatable" and what is he wanting out of his pc

dude could have a 1080p 140hz monitor, in which case a 3060ti is even overkill for most titles for that unless he wants to play the latest games at max settings full fps

if hes playing indie titles or turns games to low settings then the 3060ti will do perfectly fine for 99.999% of titles

will his cpu bottleneck, how much, etc, etc

yea its a loaded question

[hoary tulip]

Well I have a 2k moniter so 1440p and I have a 5800x3d cpu I do play games like squad arma HELL Let Loose war thunder a couple of triple A games like battlfield 2042 as well as cyber punk stuff like that

[storm osprey]

yes, a 4070 super is a worthwhile upgrade

[hoary tulip]

Oh I forgot star citizen

[storm osprey]

i personally want around 50% performance increase to actually upgrade, and the 4070 super is about 40% better than a 3060 ti

[hoary tulip]

Ehh close enough

[storm osprey]

though 4070 super comes with 12gb of vram and at 1440p i think thats good enough for a while

but if you like to max settings it might be a problem in a few titles

[hoary tulip]

Like which titles

[storm osprey]

i wouldnt know, maybe like rdr2 or cyberpunk

it would be a rare situation at 1440p, most people complained about 12gb for 4k

[hoary tulip]

Hope it would be ok with gta6 ?

[storm osprey]

200 more will get you a 4070 ti super

[hoary tulip]

That’s beyond my budget unfortunately

[storm osprey]

if you dont care about dlss and ray tracing there are amd cards

though i hear back and forth on driver and general quality of those

[hoary tulip]

Well I like nvidea for dlss as well as ray tracing

[storm osprey]

if youre fine with dropping a few settings here and there (that you likely wouldnt even notice unless running a side by side), id bet that 12gb would work on 1440p for a few years just fine

[crisp lance]

so complex?

💀

but yeah

got told the same thing about borrowing a laptop charger

it is not a question with an underlying negative portrayal !!

[storm osprey]

I feel like you’re splitting hairs at best…

[midnight sequoia]

Any 4K true hdr miniled monitor with over 1000 local dimming zones for sale in the UK? UK only. I know you can easily get one in the US and Asia. UK

[pale quartz]

nope

aside from the neo g8

[midnight sequoia]

Ain’t buying no Samsung

[midnight sequoia]

We’re not in the eu anymore why do we care about eu regulations on energy?

[pale quartz]

because they are important for the environment, what kind of question is that

[midnight sequoia]

I want to buy a new miniled monitor with over 1000 local dimming zones.

US doesn’t care about the environment then?

Rest of europe can care about it let us have our monitors

[pale quartz]

uh compared to the rest, no, they dont lol, regulations over there are much loose compared to here, besides, they dont impact you "buying monitors" or whatever you seem to think

[midnight sequoia]

So why can’t I buy it

[pale quartz]

because different continents have different priorities for markets, the US and asia are much bigger population centres so they get first priorities, it has nothing to do with energy regulation

[midnight sequoia]

If they cared about the environment they wouldn’t be driving around in an suv and car companies would stop making suvs

[pale quartz]

..?

[midnight sequoia]

Reddit says it does and the articles I read

I was browsing r/monitors

[pale quartz]

didnt i tell you not to use reddit as some source of information before

[midnight sequoia]

They’re correct

Last year they tightened the energy laws that’s why redmagic and other companies can’t sell their monitors here

[pale quartz]

no theyre not lol, because mini-LED is more efficient than LCD, they consume less power

it literally says this on their store:
The REDMAGIC 4K Gaming Monitor is available in the NA and MX store only. Other stores are coming soon.

stop using reddit as your source of information

[toxic wigeon]

There's a super nice oled my friend has I might look into one day.

[midnight sequoia]

Best place on the internet even though they permabanned all my accounts

[pale quartz]

[midnight crypt]

how does one manage that

[smoky veldt]

anyones here .. i have a question related bf 2042 issues

[vital nexus]

Anyone had issues since doing the AMD 24.1.1 driver update with Frames stuttering only on BF2042? Never had it prior to this update

[dry pike]

First round after a driver update might "stutter" more. As with most games these days. If it persists and you have an issue after a driver update then it might be time to do a proper clean driver install by using DDU in safe-mode and installing it fresh. Again, not Battlefield (or AMD) specific advice 😊

[vital nexus]

found some info on reddit apparently alot of people having issues with stuttering, rolled back to previous driver and been absolutely fine

[slender nymph]

BF2042 stuttering issue due to high CPU usage

I have been facing a stuttering issue for 3-4 days in this game. It started out of nowhere, it stutters randomly and is quite frequent. Is anyone facing this issue? What can I do to prevent this issue?

I have been playing BF2042 for the past 6 months and never faced this issue before.

Specs:-

CPU - AMD R5 5600x GPU - Nvidia RTX 3060 12 gb RAM - 16 gb

CPU is not heating, and it's cold weather here.

P.S.: It's also consuming 80 to 95% of RAM for some reason.
