No
Just drop it, you arent going to convince me by saying 70% of a sentence wrong
"worth isn’t subjective because it’s 100% case by case" Literally a contradiction
use cases may be subjective
value (of something) for a specific use case is not
For instance, does a person NEED a gaming pc to play new gen games on 4k 240hz? Probably not, so it’s a subjective want
However, (best) fulfilling that want is not subjective, because the best performance and price to performance would be gained by getting a 4090 RTX
very simple
Youre just proving what we said at the start correct with all this jibber
absolutely not
You literally have lol
you claimed that worth is subjective but in this case it’s not
Worth is literally subjective. Hense the term "Whats it worth to you" in trading
not an equivalent argument
Muted, no time for this type of ignorance
because in this case the worth is referring to the object used to fulfill a want
the worth in that case may simply refer to the want itself
You are the only ignorant one here
Another ez debate win

Anyone have any idea on why obs just goes to 0kbs on bitrate and drops the stream completely?
My stats and bitrate look good. My internet speeds are great.
But the average time to ender frames does go into the red. Could that cause my streams to drop randomly?
yes, if your GPU is fully utilised then OBS can't record frames
How could I reduce the time to render frames? Or have it no go into the red?
It show 30ms as red. Below that is white.
I reduced the resolution and frame rate but still. Drops from 5000kbps to 0 randomly and I lose the steam. Even with increasing my replay buffer and stream delay.
see prior discussion about the game with your card, not much you can do as is, time for new hardware more or less
Guess so. 480p streaming until I save up for it. Lol 😆
I meant native, no upscaling
All I’d get was 47 fps tops, and that was with RT quality set to high, not max, if I remember well
This is on my 4090 system at 1440p native cinematic, RT very high, and my GPU set to 65% max power (CPU also power limited as I like to have less heat/noise)
Dont know why it says full RT is off here tho.
Let me run it again to be sure
Ah, so full RT needs a restart. 46 average is what I see in that instance
Omg Wilde stop downloading Serious Sam pre releases. xd
Dunno, wanted to entirely avoid DLSS as an option
The fact that 1440p sucks up a 4090 is insane.
Never
What is it like without RT on?
Well its less the res, more so that its a really heavy RT load and UE5.0 title.
New thing for gn to use now.
They added a lot of performance optimization in UE 5.4.0 IIRC, but this game uses 5.0
This is with RT off
Same as above, but with DLSS quality
1440p maxed out settings, full RT and DLSS quality seems like pretty playable performance
Dropping down graphics setting preset to Very high
I can't wait for the future of massive open-world games built on UE5 
jedi survivor is 140GB on xbox, and that's UE4. Can't wait for the 3rd game on UE5. 190GB and will be broken for a whole year

Ue4 was in a similar state to ue5 now when it first started being used enmasse to be fair
Newest driver + Rebar enabled seems to improve FPS a bit
85 is really nice.
lol. your minimum was my maximum.
Yo alright so mind a mini rant here
But basically I got a replacement fold 4 under warranty because with the last one its wifi fucking died.
Factory new and all.
4 months later its wifi shits the bed.
Exact same issue.
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?
Get a Google Pixel. I've had 3 generations and liked every one. They're also releasing a new folding one
I've seen that but I don't like the feeling of that.
I got a fold 5 because I needed to rush to get a new phone a few months ago but
From friends to foe: ARM is rumored to be developing a gaming graphics card competing with NVIDIA More questions than answers. The rumor suggests that ARM is planning to hire more engineers to focus on chip development. This hiring push is linked to ARM’s plans to develop a GPU that would compete with the largest […]
gotta be a joke
they should know how risky it is to enter gaming GPU business
Probably just better integrated
Their current integrated suck
If they pull off dedicated when Intel couldnt then thatd be big bruh
Intel will have to take loss after loss if they want to keep dGPU going
just like Radeon did until the PS4
Xbox and Playstation the only reason Radeon hasn't been axed or sold to another company
imagine if Intel acquired Radeon if AMD did go bankrupt 10 years ago

Woulda been weird
Issue is they dont really have the cash to do that

Yeah I called around :/

Fans on 4070 don’t even come on when playing fallout 4 
"Are they even working?"
if the game didn't cap at 60 fps they would activate
my old GTX 770 ran Fallout 4 at solid 60 fps on ultra settings, so I imagine a 4070 doesn't even reach 10% utilization lol
fallout 4 is a CPU intensive game and hardly pushes graphics
ZONE has AMOLED screen and AMD’s Ryzen 8000 processor ZOTAC launches preorders for its first gaming handheld.

my second phone went nuts and started power off loop then called emergency services
i figured the power button is broken and it had the power button spam emergency call enabled
i managed to disable it from the settings then turned the power off without pressing the button and now it stays off finally
i thought about smashing it with hammer already
Looks like valve are banning snap tap, snappy tappy/SOCD and null bind input scripts in CS.
is any of that related to that fancy new keyboard tech that came out recently? 
Yep
They added detection for it last week, now are banning it's use. Hardware or software detection will result in a kick from the game.
wooting in shambles
All them people who use it, have skill issues
Seriously you need a specific keyboard to strafe quickly, and one wrong mistake and you die, it sounds like a big skill issue
Still though, I understand why they ban it
more razer than wooting, wooting only added it after razer came out with it
I mean razer can probably take more of the hit than wooting can't they.
in terms of the recent keyboard software/hardware competitive edge trend, wooting has been leading that with almost all of these techs
razer only recently one upped with the latest cheating tech which wooting quickly added, so everything else wooting has done (that everyone else has copied) is still there and wootings good will is still intact
id be willing to bet theres a net positive in the end compared to before razer announced snap tap because of the exposure
before i reset and remove everything from my pc, will i have to reinstall any drivers too? gpu, motherboard and allat
Man these motherboards are a whole lot bigger than i was expecting
Cannot be bigger then the server, I bought
Like I didn't know it was that big
gonna see if I can hide it under my desk
Eeh you haven't seen large
or small
Like looking at that server rack, majority of it is the motherboard
why did you buy a server 
Why not buy one is the question
also planning on buying 8x2gb sticks, to get I think 16gb of ram on it
I dunno if it supports 4gb ddr2
I don't think 4gb is enough for anything these days, unless you count a big ass chrome os machine
I don't think it can even run chrome os
since it's graphic is what you call ancient even in 2005, this was released in 2005
1998, it was released, that'll tell you how ancient that is
Unfortunately i see small a lot more often then I’d like
Ah yes matx
or your talkign even smaller
what was that called
I was making a small penis joke

this is a channel for serious topics only, consult your doctor for those types of questions
I think a therapist would do more good than a doctor
Yeah, we were discussing nerdy stuff
like owning a server
lol. unless it's Dr. Flesho and his organ extender

There are four versions of the PS5 DualSense controller (so far). Often called V1 V2 V3 V4 or Gen 1 2 3 4. In the video, I put them all side by side and compare the differences; both the outsides and the insides. It includes a partial teardown, and I show how to tell which version you have.

Thats what we were all waiting tbh
But 300€...
Not sure but should be easier to cool and hopefully a better idle efficiency
AMD CPUS going down hill 
Must be them not going through the China situation like Nvidia did 
Nvidia is making a RTX Titan AI for Blackwell but it’s gonna be better than 5090 
Apparently people are saying it’s gonna be about 63% faster than a 4090 due to the leaks
Ngl. That shit is gonna be hella expensive
Isn't the 90s like titan just they decided to change it from name to number? 🤔 🤷
What i have been thinking for a while at least
i forgot tbh. they havent made a titan forever now. the blackwell rtx titan ai is supposed to be more expensive but faster than the 5090

hello
you think thats gonna beat the ryzen 4070
So nvidia will do titan and 90 this time? 🤔
Wonder when next size increase will be, 4080/90 are giants 

Amd is only good for CPUs
You know it'll be the size of an a/c now

and 1500w, nah bro x2
3000w
for the 5090
Maybe eventually it will be like this 
pcs nowdays heat up a room even during the winter, but ye in time it might actually take up an entire room

Tbh. If my room is cold. I just turn on my pc and let a game run. Even if I’m sleeping 
ASUS ready for the next-gen Ryzen 9000X3D series At least the motherboard microsite page is. As discovered by @momomo_us, ASUS has ‘accidentally’ listed the Ryzen 9000 X3D series on its microsite, which launched yesterday for the new 800-series motherboards. The website not only mentions the 9000 X3D series, but the entire content is filled with...
it's bullshit lol
no like the meme
5090 on 4nm again so likely more like 30% gain instead of 60%
not gonna be full 512-bit
I feel like RTX 50 series will have exclusive software features over previous gens
yayn't

The question is what would that even be
dlss 4
texture resolution upscaling 
Now with subscription required to use
Nvidia won’t do that, it’s RTX exclusive technology not open source
Prob better the DLSS3 
In every way
Never mentioned open source lol
If they think it would be worth it, they would make that
They do have geforce now
Oof. I don’t get that. Guess I’m lucky
it happened in edge when i opened flightradar24
im gonna update
560.94 is newest
it does seem that the driver caused some older gpus to crash
I really hope it's the driver as im gonna sell this 3070
Try to change driver to the previous one via Nvidia website
I try the newest
not crashed since installing newest game ready driver
That’s good. If it happens revert back via NVIDIA driver on the website

AMD mid-range AM5 series with 800-series chipsets no sooner than 2025 AMD reportedly not ready to launch new mid-range motherboards yet.

These new AM5-based motherboards are expected to support three gene...
B840 chipset is successor to B620

hellow w guys, can any wone help me? my battle field 2042 don't launche.
@sterile cedar what's it's doing
@pure fox nothing 😆 when i launche, first the lading screen, after that is a black screem. I launche whit steam..steam is conected on EA
@sterile cedar I had the same issue actually yesterday I opened the was open and manage the game and had it repaired itself
This GPU was from my past PC the Alienware one
I forgot what 20 series card it was
Think about upgrading to a 30 series that is a direct upgrade
3080 is good or a 4070/80
Or wait for the 50s 
If you want future proof and depending on how good your pc is. 4090 is a beast
4k gaming at its finest
No I already did that, my dad who got the Alienware PC wants to have it upgraded to hold multiple display ports and just function a bit better
There will not be any major spending like last time
3080 is still strong or a 3090
That's why I have this shit built
Also cost, he doesn't want to spend more than 1000 or even 500 I bet
Im still too afraid of leaking to use watercooling, so i just got an nh d15
Mine don’t leak
Im sure theyre secure but its about ease of mind
Just be safe with it. Just rush it
In a perfect world we all got custom water loops
Having issues finding the speed on this ram stick
All I know is that it's a ddr4 16gb stick
I tried looking it up but it gives me the wrong product every time
Kingston fury should be easy enough to look up
A quick search suggest they are Dell OEM parts, which explains why they are hard to look up
but the speed 2933 is right on there
You keep it on the ground 
Yeah
Oh really, aaaaah now i see it
He’s abit slow 
(Console gamer moment)
god damn dude, is your case's structure made entirely out of fans?
also is it an irrational fear to hold computer components by the contact strip? 
I have fans in the case 
its a wall of them
all the air flow
Yes
If I play games at max settings at 1440p. It’s hot asf on the case 
3080 is a heat generator
well who told you to buy that space heater smh
should have been a cheap ass and get the 3070 
It came with it 
I’m lazy so I bought this pc from someone. It’s good ngl. Just umm the 3080 is a heat generator
If I play on my normal settings that I set for every game. It’s cool asf
its not a good thing to have that many fans, but eh its fine
Why not?
Airflow is pretty important in a case, is probably what they mean. Just filling all spaces for fane, with fans is generally a bad idea
looks nervously at his case, every fan spot occupied
What. Want me take one of the bottom ones out and move them towards the center?
This is a random system I built last week. Blue arrows are cool air intake, red arrows are hot air outtake
what case is that
Its some shitty cheap corsair case haha
oh ok i see the psu shroud is straight up
im looking at it.. then to my right, and its so similiar to my meshify c 
Bro have some makeshift far cry on his cpu 
But yeah...fan placement is also best to be done based on PC situation.
Like if the user is going to have their PC rear wedged tight against a wall. there is not much point in having all the fans exhaust be at the back of the case. If there will be open air above the case, youre better off to exhaust out the top
I'm guessing it's exhausting out the top?
Ye
The airflow is exactly like yours ngl
The only time it heats up. If I play games at max settings without rt
I don’t like maxed out everything 
Me like my fps
^ essentially, because fans blow air in (that config) and theres little exhaust or intake, it more or less just blows around hot ambient air around the creating a negative flow situaition, there always needs to be a good balance between intake/exhaust for positive airflow reasons
bigger fans are always better than more fans because they can direct more volumetric air at once, 120 etc arent that good for large cases
I only added a 120 to the above case because I noticed a hot spot on the case in the top corner without it. Adding that fan reduced cpu temps by 4c and removed the Hotspot
thermal camera?
Avoiding air turbulence is also important. And inefficient fan placement, etc.
Like you wouldn't place an intake fan and an exhaust fan right beside each other on a case corner, cos they will just be doing nothing. (unless the exhaust is on a radiator)
Na, could just feel the corner get hot while stress testing
that could work too
i went from a fractal design r6 that still had the metal top (no top rad/fans installed) to this meshify with the magnetic dust filter on the top covering the 2 top fan potential placements
but im still running 2 intakes in the front, and 1 rear.. with the tower cooler in the same direction
after the fact i thought about having the tower turned 90 and blowing out the top but ehh
I'm guessing you've removed the top filter?
Filtering exhausted air is a bit pointless afterall
its on the outside of the case in a little indentation still
And all it does is reduces airflow/static pressure
its to keep that ambient dust away that likes to sneak up on you when the pc is off

So to clarify more fans alone is not inherently bad, you just need to be concerned about airflow

Is ali express legitimate?
I feel this might be a scam so I'll remove the link.
Ali express is legit but it’s kinda grey market from what I understand
Don’t go for it
You can end up with a GPU that is fucked cause the pcb was stripped
Yeah I figured it was a scam anyways because there were for 4080s for more.

The Qi2 standard was supposed to open up Apple MagSafe to Android smartphones, chargers and accessories from third-party providers without having to pay license fees to Apple. However, not only has the market launch taken longer than expected, the branding surrounding two components of the standard is now causing confusion on the internet.

wtf is this 
New logo 
they numerous times promised qi2 enforcing magsafe-like standards with the magnets
And now they split into multiple tiers which means you can get away calling your product qi2 certified even if doesn't have magnets
WPC can go fuck themselves for this change
bro I just wanted magsafe for every new phone 
Tbh. Apple and android should use the same shit. Just like the whole type C ordeal
even apple helped opening it up
Apple already adopted the new standard, because magsafe is basically qi2 now
type c to type c port
Remember when Apple was hardcore lighting
Now they are type C 
Hence why I like my IPhone 15 a lot compared to 13 that I had
Fuck lighting port. I was so excited to hear the change
at least they were first on a port that works upside down, unlike micro usb
Android and many technology devices upgraded to type c ages ago
don't really care about if it's a lighting port or usb-c
Bruh 
That's the real crime
Also. I’m saying. Make things universal. The only difference is what the product itself offers
Not the ports or whatever
Yeah the ideal future is only needing 1 charger brick and cable to charge anything
Fax
Yeah, I own one
Ngl type C is the best thing we have till a new faster and better port comes out. Type c is gonna last us for years imo
I have to keep a micro usb cable just for that
Even the cheapo battery charger I got off aliexpress uses usb c lmao
Type C solves a lot of the issues with older ports.
Oh yeah I don't either. I just got one to charge my Xbox controller's battery.
I just use magsafe/wireless chargers
Micro/mini USB was such a nightmare port
Especially having 4 different cords for 4 different things 
idk how we lived in a world dominated by those once
It so unreliable/prone to breaking
Getting the pins aligned all the time was awful if your cable was even slightly old
a new port isn't required
the usb c standard isn't one speed, it has different versions
that's why the EU forced manufacturers to use usb c in devices (iPhone etc)
I know. I’m saying is better and universal
now you still have apple who are wanting to squeeze money from a stone so they lock certain charging speeds artificially to phones so you pay more but it is what it is
Gaming laptops with their TB4 
Wait, the speeds are imposed by software?

hardware
Jesus they're stingy.
atleast apple opened up magsafe to qi2. But then the WPC just had to make it confusing 
if you can't make money out a thunderbolt connector instead just force them to buy the pro model it's why apple are kings at making money
Average tech moment 
they don't particularly care about consumers, they just give the impression that they do
And I thought samsung was obnoxious with this shit.
standards organisations suck sometimes 
Not charging specifically but you know.
no lol far from it there's no comparison between them
apple are kings at marketing artificial segmentation as a feature, Samsung can't do that without not selling phones
Like I said. Apple love to follow this

Biggest issue I have with Samsung is how expensive their S pens are and that they used the same broken ass wifi adapter for the fold 3 and 4 pboned.
That and... making their folds slimmer instead of big battery. -.-
But those are my personal grievances LOL
yeah the thing is that's the tip of the iceberg for apple
they already do all that, and have for years
go look at how much the new apple watch costs
OnePlus/oppo are arses for making the chip in the cable proprietary so if I want that sweet fast charging I need to fork over £35 for a new cable 
ehh sorta kinda it's a bit more technical than that
Just a hundred bucks more than the most expensive Samsung watch 7.
Every Apple product is the same with a minor upgrade. The biggest upgrade I’ve seen from them is 14->15 mainly due to type C port
it's not proprietary because of charging it's because OnePlus phones have a deep access method for mounting the partitions
They're already planning to release an even slimmer one in SK 
but its convenient to lock the rest aswell for money
ITS LIKE
Gimme good BATTERY
Don't apple want to make a really slim iPhone again too?
ofc they do
The air yeah.
Bendgate 2.0 incoming
they literally blew up over being too slim
Phone companies don’t care about phone battery life anymore 
Did they try for even slimmer???
And what we are getting is the "safest"
They just optimize it better for battery life instead
I mean I think that's just as good.
it's nothing about safety it's about aesthetic
clock speed doesn't matter lol
that's not true they are leagues apart
IPC isn't close for either and neither is efficiency
As long as it's more efficient I think that's what we should be more concerned about.
That reminds me
Phones have amazing memory management don't they?
no not particularly
Why do the budget phones get the larger batteries 
iPhones do androids meh
I want me a 6k mah battery
BOMB.
because premium demands slim factors, its just about customers, they just sell more
I want fat phone. :[
Samsung sells such phones 
no you dont
Fat expensive phone.
you're saying it now but you definitely don't lol
Ok I was hyperbolic.
But I mean I don't want phones to be slimmer and slimmer cause the folds as they are are pretty "slim"
once again I hate the mass market, but listening to enthusiasts all the time is a bad idea for them anyways lol.
the z fold is 2 phones, so aesthetic is proportional as is battery size, just a hard thing to balance in general
If I can have a battery that's a little larger I'll be all the happier. Or other way around a processor that's mega efficient.
Yeah.
hello
anyone can help me
i getting kicked from battlefield 2042 by easy anticheat
enthusiasts are the worst type of user to listen to lol
I'm not gonna deny like oh no my fold is dying I HAVE TWO SCREENS.
on new computer
Repair your files.
i downloaded this game now
battlefield 2042 doesn't use easy anticheat anymore
second time
it hasn't for over a year
so why i getting kicked
😭
I love all the news articles coming out about a pixel 9 having 'an amazing battery'
no idea lol dunno where you're getting this game from but it's definitely not an official client
But it's actually still considerably worse than comparable Samsung and apple models 
not due to the battery
I want the pixel phones to do well.
tensor chips are just years behind Qualcomm for efficiency
I heard they have a subpar processor.
Maybe pixel 10 will be the one from tsmc
steam

slimmer phone but longer and wider in return
and pumped out camera
I can't wait for the next gen pixel fold phone.
And for Apple to make their own flip.
it's not that easy for apple
More of these phones on the market means more competition.
compared to Google or Samsung anyways
Got to have that copium even after Google repeatedly tells people that they don't care about competing with qualcomm 
ehh it's more due to materials
apple don't have a consistent supply for oled panels and haven't for years and you can't make a foldable phone without it LCD is impossible
There's already so much competition in Asia and Europe lol. Mainly from the Chinese
They just need to nail down actual good software for a foldable
Oh that's rough.
They'll have to make it really count then.
I didn't know that 
Huawei fold. 
God
that's why fuck all iPhones have oled panels
An inverted fold is such a waste.
I mean.. it's also another selling point for the pros

kinda but not really just to do with their situation
Oppo fold looks really good. And they made a flip with actual good battery life
Waiting for oneplus to make their own, I'd get that 
it already exists
no I mean a flip
I remember seeing this tech years ago but was unimpressed cause they didn't last for long.
oh flip fair enough
Saw a video from someordinarygamers and he had his fold then realised "so it isn't a fad huh"
was never going to be a fad tons of resources have been poured to make them possible
I've got the z fold 6 even
That's cool!
If they made the cover screen as big as the galaxy's that would be perfect.
But I guess that would lead to compromises with the camera
I would get a zfold if it meant OLED.
I think the next big thing will be the camera in the screen.
For samsung.
For the inner screen?
As in I feel maybe the exterior screen for the flip will recieve the same treatment as the inner screen.
Yeah.
not a fan of the flip personally but I see why people like them
My manager has one and we literally bonded over them LMAO
I had a sperg at the phone store and he witnessed me talking like mad about how cool they are and I didn't notice him.
I want to own and use a 'fun' phone again and cut down my screen time lol.
A good enough cover screen would mean I'd only use my phone when I'd really need to.
i have #115 error
so
ea
ea anticheat has detected an unacceptable configuration, check if any cheating or manipulation software is running and restart the game (115)
time to start reading error messages
yeah fair
just don't like the small screen estate personally
Hopefully this doesn’t cause too much issues with it, I’ve found in the past that risers mainly fail when they’re moved even a little but mould them into a position and leave them and they’re okay
Still gotta wait a week for a new psu before I can test it though
Sheesh that’s a tight spot
Is that a fan at the bottom?
Yeah, it’s got two 120 fans blowing up from the bottom
huh. who thought a picture of a computer could make me feel claustrophobic. weird.
That one is mostly blocked by the card but it’ll help somewhat anyway
Wait until you see how full it is with the cables etc once I put the psu in
legit no space in it
is it an itx? I really can't tell from the picture and as much fun as scrolling up for a day sounds...
Yeah it’s a mini itx case
I’ll post full build pics next week
The only sfx psu I have right now is 450W which is half what it should be for the parts
What is more immersive for FPS games, 1440p Ultrawide or 4K Standard?
immersive ultrawide because 21:9 is a wider fov
nope
Well that took some effort, but Bloodborne running on PC haha
Yeah, PS4 emu
thats cool. prob more updates to polish it out more
what the hell
Just a week ago I was impressed with them booting to the menu
now they can get it to load?
seriously impressive
fpps4 has some competition too which is nice
So I can't find a hyperx fury ddr4 ram stick that has the 2933mhz
I did find one that has 2666mhz

This is the product code: HX429C17FB2K2/16
Don't think it's available in my country. copied the product name on the Amazon link you gave and I didn't get the same results
And I did use the product code and I found it out of stock
What if you google the product number
I keep getting results for a 3200 MHz
Im pretty sure you can just use the 3200 MHz ones though
It will just run the same speed as the lower mhz ram
oh....my...god...when i type C: in the search bar, it opens calculator? what kind of dystopian hell am i living in?

good timing...
What about SSD 
i read that most ssd have gone up in price but some specific brands like crucials have gone down for some reason
I use WD 
i have 2 crucial sata 3 ssds and a seagate firecuda gen 4 nvme
considered going SSDs but kinda expensive for 4 of them
I mean. You spend thousands of dollars for a beast of a pc, Why not. As for consoles. You barely spend as much as a beast pc, so you have plenty of money left. 
For me. I don’t need more than 2tbs. No use to have more than 2tbs imo
the amount of my games are close to 2tb
i have 1.5 tb of hdd storage for games that don't require a lot of loading/stuff i don't play that often and a 2 tb gen 4 nvme for loady games. I don't think I could fill them up if I tried.
but hell, it may be too little storage in 3 years
but like...2 TB, $150. 8 TB, $800+. I'm not a mathematician, but uh.
I have 2tb SSD and I don’t even use a tb worth for games 
I regret even getting the nvme. it was a waste of money. for gaming, a regular old ssd would have done the trick. i got hoodwinked.
oh, no, I don't have issues, but the intensive thing I do is game. I don't transfer large files. a SATA SSD would have been sufficient.
I think bf2042 maps load a second faster than on my son's pc with sata ssds
bfd
It’s the best to load stuff up faster ye
probably going to need all 2 TB and the transfer speeds when flight sim 2024 comes out 
You might need a fiber card
for great transfer speeds
or are you doing it on the pc
Lies, you know cod will be taking a 1tb soon

flight simming was a need for the pc i built. i tried on my i5-4670k and it was...not great. now the problem is their network. it requires so much data from their servers while you're playing it's unreal.
Ah ok, I got confused if your installing it on your pc or offloading it to a server
Next game at most 200gb of everything is installed for BO6 alone
even with a 400 GB installation, it's constantly streaming data. I guess when you're trying to recreate the entire earth in 4k it's difficult to store it locally.
True, it most likely is
People with 20tb storage of games and still stream data 
My friend have 15tb just for games
It's always microsoft causing them issues
And he long plays 3 of them 
I mean. Games promote stream data for graphics a lot tbh
I'll be adding 16tb to my server and I need to use a molex to sata
to be able to have tons of games stored locally
While Microsoft is a steaming pile of shit, I trust Asobo. They're very concise with their development roadmap and are very involved with the community.
Just use 3 SSDs like my friend in his pc
Or offload it to a server
That can support having a ton of storage
Not effective compared to on the pc alone 
It is more effective though
How?
As instead of having NAS storage on the pc
it's on a NAS
That is inside a promox vm, because I want a plex server on it as well
Not fast enough compared to the pc directly reading it
Who said I don't have a fiber card

acutally I don't need fiber
He doesn't have a fiber card
I do
I know. I just wanted to say it. You asked who said it.
I seriously believed you.
Alright
you didn't need to show me lol
I’m just saying. It’s faster for the pc to load up shit set of a server
look at that itty bitty heat sink. cute.
It's an old fiber card someone curbed
and also, my server has adaqute fans
probably still needs the heatsink because of the transfer rates, but it's literally just little and cute 
right now i only have the including fans in my fractal design case + my noctua nh-d15 on my cpu and it seem to keep stuff cool enough
nh-d15 is a big boy tho
Noctua makes some nice looking fans though
that sucks. i feel like that was kinda their thing.
I mean if you went hard though and had a library? It would look pretty f'ing cool.
there's an episode of LinusTT where he builds one. But he can jump into a volcano for all i care.
@prime jasper I'm going to do something real cursed to my server
windows vista home on it
from a hp compaq windows recovery disk
and its service pack 1
I haven't heard the click of a CD tray in so long. I'm kind of envious to be honest
yes, you do need to back them up. that shit will decay
oh. wow. i thought you just had them sitting in a spindle. nevermind
It's still in it's original envelope
ah no won't work
it's recovery so I think it has no bootloader
.iso hunting you go
Shouldn't these have a boot media or something
windows vista supports xp x64 drivers?
Sadly won't work
I'll boot linux and back these disc up
I think I know why
this server was only created as a linux machine
@prime jasper Sadly the disc cannot be preserved
I took a really close look at all them
all three you can see the text and the one that doesn't, works
meaning all three recovery disk experienced disk rot
Yeah. CDs were not made to stand the test of time lol. it's almost like they knew the technology wouldn't last long
I have many old game and album CDs that I barely ever used that are scratched up to shit for some reason
all NES and nintendo 64 cartridges still work perfectly
though I hear the on-board memory on the game cartridges sometimes fails and needs to be resoldered
any tiny bit of moisture that gets to a cd will start to hydrolyze the adhesive that holds the reflective layer to the disc
so it'll get scuffed way more easily
as time passes
that, and the reflective layer is often made with aluminum. and while aluminum is somewhat resistant to oxidation, it's not immune
aluminum turns into aluminum oxide
and it ain't reading shit anymore

Don't be scared. It's science. It's happy!
Remember the old, GameStop grease looking thing with the disc cleaner when you spin it around with a lever 
Good ol days
I’ve done the toothpaste trick. Works like a charm also
Or you take it to Best Buy/block buster. Some place to clean it off like brand new.
Only takes off one layer. But extremely worth it
that works for surface scratches. nothing is going to fix the chemical stuff.
no, i mean the chemical reactions of the glue breaking down and the aluminum oxidizing
that just happens over time
O yea
Actually I want to double check
as I noticed it couldn't read a cd-r disc that was in good condition
Yep, it might be the disc drive
of the machine unable to read cd-r
I put it into my gateway laptop that is unique as the whole thing is a prototype of sorts, it is near release but during sampel a and b testing
Yeah ok, no failure @prime jasper
the server cd drive does not support reading the discs
Though who said not to make a usb of all three discs

ohh yes. do eet
Definitely need to boot up linux mint
Will first test booting on my gateway machine
Yep ok, so system recovery works
I had to change plug in play to vista in bios, even though it would boot xp just fine
Will make dd of the disc and post it to good old archive.org since these discs aren't archived yet
It's not 32 bit
it's 64 bit verison of it
they need to be archived first before doing anything
Might stick with xp @prime jasper
While yes, windows vista might be cursed
It also doesn't have ati rage xl drivers
Man its cursed even making an iso for windows vista, it's not like your average, here iso
it's you build it
I'm not kidding
Anyway since the files might not be around, time to be more cursed
and take it from the disc
I would never like, suggest doing something illegal, but aren't there other ways of finding an .iso?
And I don't feel like I'm suggesting anything immoral since it's been like, you know, 25 years lol
True, but at the same time, I already got the discs
and it's easier to make it since iso aren't official
Like the manufacturers are, anyone else isn't
All I need is 3 specific files
wife went to bed early, time to fly from Seattle to LA I think. little jaunt down the coast at low altitude
oops. wrong channel. whatever though
technically it ain't a game
so XP is a-go?
i think I missed where you said vista again. my b.
It's alright
Only thing i liked about Vista was the good looking aero theme or what it was called, other than that i preferred xp
I don't think the ati rage xl supports aero
while I did enjoy the aero theme, i was at an unfortunate age where my parents dictated my hardware updates. so it seriously tanked my system
I can't remember what processor I had then...I want to say Pentium 4, but it was god awful whatever it was
and the video card was whatever pci card I could con my mother into buying
Pentium 4, I think I had windows 7 on a pentium 4 and ran fine
though it was hyperthreading and also had a hd 6450
wondering why I can't throttle up and my HOTAS is unplugged 
It would be cool if Microsoft had a cheap subscription to get security updates to xp for people who cant get their hands on any recent hardware
10
xp can drink
Though I agree
ask the hospital why they have xp embedded machines
they pass those savings onto the patients 
Do they
To extracting all the wim and hopefully turn it into the install wim
Oh god, synatec and hp bluetooth drivers
its 10gb for the install.wim, man what kind of shit is in those recovery disc
We got wildtanget as well
holy christ. wildtangent. wow
I think I extracted more then the install.wim, I think I extracted the entire os
@prime jasper Good news
It's booted into windows vista

Nope I ran into a roadblock
It seems microsoft did not add anyway to override
gpt partition
so you have to manually boot into linux and do it from there

24H2 now. Let’s go
"What do you do for a living? I run benchmarks on cpus and talk about the results in front of a camera"
I did something wrong in life.
so wrong
testing 40+ games is definitely time consuming
yeah, but that's pretty much what I do on my computer I just keep it to myself. I never monetized the hobby 😦
Aye bro, I swap settings and restart the game for better results and capture it 
You can do it at home but I recorded it and put it in a excel spreadsheet 
fr. i spend more time finding the ideal settings, modifying my system, than i do playing the game. that's the fun part
the games are usually dogshit lol
and then you go to sleep and think "shit, i need to try one more thing in the morning" and it turns into an obsession until you actually do it
and you get the privledge of spending money on it and never earning anything
Looking back and forgot one setting in a vid and have to do all over again 
Most of those people that test multiple configs for one single game. Don’t even donate the pieces. Unless the card don’t have any use for modern games.
I think my favorite is when I undervolting by -.005 and only ran the stress test for 10 minutes instead of 30. You would think I was driving around with my kid having no seat belt. That's how insecure it made me 
10 min stress test is wild
which I hate. because then people are "my card is a piece of shit if I don't have a 4090" and they're depressed they get 95 fps instead of 130. like, what.
just enjoy the damn game
When I undervolt my 3080 atleast by 100. I stress test on multiple games and in game setting config
it was my cpu, not the video card. i don't like to mess with my video card.
O
I only undervolt my 3080 to keep it cooler but still get the same exact performance 
Steve and Tim definitely buy their hardware lol
I'm in their discord
3080 is a heating machine
Nice. Wish they announce it on their YouTube or sum. I almost never notice it tbh
they do..
I guess I’m slow 🤦♂️
I do like some tech channels. Dawid Does Tech Stuff and Basically Homeless I enjoy. but it's more like watching engineers than richbois throwing expensive hardware at games
I like watching tech vids to see how much it will get out of, said config. But still blows my mind of how much they spend
I swear to God if this thing tells me I'm self-promoting I'm going to go ballistic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyNCU6Xsvao

Survival gaming at its finest 
ngl ,I'm looking up that CPU and the board right now. you're inspiring me
having an early 2000s server sounds kinda fun
and it would let me play all the damn games i played as a kid
the board impossible
because the company was bought
i just mean the socket
ah its socket604
It would play all the games on max if the gpu wasn't from 1998 and as a display adapter
Ah, I can prove the 4gb of ram
512mbx8
yes it's 8 512mb ddr2 ram
I believe you anyways. Man that shit is old 
It do be
It so old, they didn't move on to pcie, it uses some old format called
