[molten coral]

it isn't wireless but does have a 2 meter cable

[proud trellis]

my phones battery can last me like a week as i dont really use my phone much so i just charge it every now and then in the car when on the way to/from school

[molten coral]

This @latent light

[proud trellis]

dont you just keep that on your desk ? and then put your phone on top when it needs to be charged ?

[molten coral]

No, it just sticks

[proud trellis]

oh damn

thats cool

[molten coral]

the phone has magnets inside to hold it

Apple also has a bunch of accessories that are way too overpriced to stick on the back

Like a battery pack, card holder

[proud trellis]

i would like to get something similar to that charger you have but maybe one that just sits on your desk to add some decoration ig you could call it

would also be just nicer to have it charging at my desk instead of me having to walk to the other side of the room to put my phone on charge , unless im just lazy

[molten coral]

Yeah that is what I had first

But I build it under my table so I just put my phone on the spot where it's located and it will charge

[proud trellis]

so it will basically charge through your desk countertop ?

[molten coral]

it doesn't work with my iphone but I can charge my galaxy buds on it :P

Yes

[proud trellis]

thats cool to

i think i would just keep it on my desk if i had like an empty spot just to fill it up, but having that under your desk is just more minimalistic ig

[molten coral]

I don't like having a lot of clutter on my desk

signapore post ship faster pllsss I want to build my keyboard

[proud trellis]

i dont either really but rn i literally just have a fan and then obviously my pc and other peripherals

most of my stuff rn is packed away tho

[molten coral]

My desk/room is a mess with clutter everywhere so i'm hating myself atm

[proud trellis]

i'd say mine is clean but only because my parents make me clean it every weekend else they just moan

[molten coral]

Eh, i'm 25, I don't have anyone saying that to me :P

I still live at home but it's my room so

[proud trellis]

i put washing away and take plates downstairs but i will leave something out like cables or a controller just lying around as i just dont bother putting it back

but most of the big stuff like my lamps and side tables arent even in my room anymore, its literally all just packed away, only thing i have is my bed and desk lol

[proud trellis]

fair enough

[latent light]

https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-zen4-epyc-genoa-to-support-up-to-12-channel-12tb-ddr5-memory

12TB RAM, was expected to be 6TB

[vapid estuary]

we can finally have 12 chrome tabs open at the same time

[jagged ether]

Hey

I have a problem with my screen here

When its fullscreen its super laggy but when it goes to windowed all of a sudden its good

Anyone know why??

[vapid estuary]

update ur drivers and check clean install

[jagged ether]

What clean install??

My drivers good tho

[vapid estuary]

go to geforce experiance and update drivers and select manual installation and check perform clean installation

its gonna reinstall ur drivers that fixed my problem before

idk about amd tho

[karmic barn]

anybody noticed the game feels a bit more blurry after update 3.1?

or its just me?

[marsh gull]

yeah same

its acting a bit weirdly lately with the new update

[untold wadi]

any reason the game is using 90% of my cpu and 0.3% of my gpu?

[tawny kernel]

hey guys, so i get a black screen while gaming (fullscreen) just lose visual for a couple seconds the game continues on. i have a ryzen 5 3600 CPU, radeon rx 5700 xt gpu, this happens on apex legends occasionally as well. hoping someone has some insights as to why this is occuring. doesn't occur when i play games like lol. thanks!

[prisma anvil]

@tawny kernel try a ddu then reinstall amd gpu drivers

[solid maple]

I just turned on my pc today and it got shut down after few minutes and didnt turn on, and i checked my power supply cable and one its left hole got bit of something on it , like metal

Should i change my psu?

[prisma anvil]

Cpu and ram bottleneck game

So either ur cpu or ur ram or both are clapped.

[untold wadi]

3600 ddr4 16 gb ram and 8 core 8 thread processor at 4.7 ghz is more than the recommended specs. the game is physically using less than 1% of my GPU. that is a massive problem.

[prisma anvil]

ram speed? also 3600 at 4.7ghz thats some mad overclock lol

w8 3600 ram speed

[untold wadi]

3600 is what I meant for ram speed

yug

[prisma anvil]

whats ur cpu?

[untold wadi]

i7 9700k

well above the recommended, my GPU is below, yet isnt being used at all

[prisma anvil]

u should get about 100 fps

whats ur gpu?

[untold wadi]

2060

the game usually performs fine but when it begins to max out my CPU i get frame drops, wouldnt be an issue if my cpu was the issue, but its not, the game should be using at least 60% of my GPU if not more

[prisma anvil]

u should push almost 100 at low

are u pushing 100 fps?

[untold wadi]

idk i dont play with an fps counter, I would guess 80-100 ish. but when my cpu is beginning to go from 90-100%, I begin to get frame drops. this was the only time it has happened so far but its an issue I encountered in the beta as well

not sure why or even how my GPU is not being utilized in any way. below 1% usage just makes 0 sense

[prisma anvil]

u can try oc ur cpu

below 1% is kinda impossible

[untold wadi]

unfortunately i was getting 0.3% usage earlier

[prisma anvil]

think ur monitoring program is broke

[untold wadi]

usually dont have any issues with task manager

[prisma anvil]

yeah task manager is bad

people use things like nvidia overlay, hwinfo64, msi afterburner etc

[untold wadi]

afterburner does not show usage, dont believe nvidia overlay does either?

not to mention nvidia overlay is beyond terrible

[prisma anvil]

better than task manager

[untold wadi]

but it literally doesnt show the same info

i need my usage not my fps

[prisma anvil]

think about it its impossible for ur gpu usage to be below 1%

[untold wadi]

obviously not

only happens on battlefield so far

[prisma anvil]

so try a different program

[untold wadi]

such as

[prisma anvil]

what I mentioned

[untold wadi]

as ive pointed out 3 times those do not give my my usage

i need, USAGE.

[prisma anvil]

they do

[untold wadi]

oh really

[prisma anvil]

yeah

nvidia control panel is HUD layout and click basics

it shows fps 99% fps render latency CPU and GPU utilization

[untold wadi]

nvidia overlay is something ive sworn to never use, i will use afterburner

[prisma anvil]

then do that

[untold wadi]

im on the main menu and the game is already maxing out my cpu lmfao

[prisma anvil]

like I said its cpu and ram bottlenecked

[untold wadi]

and i own both light years above what is required to run this game

my GPU is the only item below recommended specs

[prisma anvil]

I helped 13 people on this discord so far

[untold wadi]

that worries me

[prisma anvil]

all cpu and ram bottlenecked

[untold wadi]

cant be bottlenecked when they are capable of running it. this is some heavy copium. the game just has poor optimization. i run games on way nicer settings with less cpu usage than this

[prisma anvil]

then don't play the game

[untold wadi]

https://gyazo.com/7108b442bd4d29524e7e0e2dbf99eefa

last time i checked the 9700k was a fair bit better than that

[prisma anvil]

it is.

[untold wadi]

the game should not be maxing it out, end of discussion. even if i had a bad cpu a main menu should not be maxing my cpu out lmfao

[thorny bridge]

Can't your help me overlooking graphics card gtx 1660 super gigabyte

[prisma anvil]

ok then dont play the game, gg.

[prisma anvil]

I am good.

[untold wadi]

copium

[prisma anvil]

I push 130-200 fps in this game

I am good

[untold wadi]

fps doesnt really matter here im talking about cpu usage not my fps

[prisma anvil]

U complaining here does not improve ur fps and that's on u

[untold wadi]

my fps is fine its cpu usage

[prisma anvil]

who cares about cpu, gpu usage. if ur getting good fps, then go play

?????

[thorny bridge]

Can't your help me overlooking graphics card gtx 1660 super gigabyte

[untold wadi]

multitasking exists, discord exists, etc. if i have literally 1 other app open, and battlefield is using 90% of my cpu, then gg

[prisma anvil]

the game uses 8 threads. 9700k have 8 threads. it should use 100%

5950x has 32 threads, this game uses 8 threads people with 5950X uses over 25%

deal with it.

[untold wadi]

have played games with settings maxed out with less cpu usage, and much better looking. poor optimization all around. hope they work on it

[prisma anvil]

the game is still gonna use 8 threads period.

[untold wadi]

my statement stands

[prisma anvil]

then don't play lol

or w8

[untold wadi]

stick to cars

[lilac cove]

Wow

That's nice

[prisma anvil]

I know right?

basic math.

[lilac cove]

Most games use how many threads again?

[prisma anvil]

depends on game

[untold wadi]

not 8

[prisma anvil]

BFV uses more

[lilac cove]

I think it's like 4

[lilac cove]

How many

12?

[prisma anvil]

all ur cpu cores

[lilac cove]

Oh

Lol

[prisma anvil]

yeah

other games that uses more warzone.

2077

[untold wadi]

interesting considering my CPU usage on warzone is usually around 60-70

back when the game was playable that is

[prisma anvil]

thats cause ur cpu renderer count was set to a specific number

[untold wadi]

odd

[thorny bridge]

Amd ryzen 5 3600 do u have solution overlooking

[untold wadi]

overlooking??

[prisma anvil]

as the cpu get more cores u think games will forever utilize this little cores and threads?

[thorny bridge]

Yeah

[untold wadi]

of course they should utilize them but not require them

[prisma anvil]

the processor lasso only 4 or 6 cores to 2042

u get less fps but hey less cpu usage

[untold wadi]

not sure what is so intense on the main menu, perhaps the buttons for the 2 game modes are consuming my cpu

[prisma anvil]

also literally tuned a bunch of 9700k on this discord, they are all fine

[untold wadi]

i dont think anything i do will lower the usage

[prisma anvil]

also BFV literally uses alot more cpu than 2042, cause the game is optimized.

[prisma anvil]

That's alot of die

[shell lantern]

is the low gpu usage fixed yet ive put off playing the game bc im still getting 40-60 frames with a 3080

[prisma anvil]

Cpu/ram bottlenecked

Cpu/ram can't keep up with gpu

[shell lantern]

i have never bottlenecked on any other game and im also running in 2k so it should be using more gpu, doesnt make sense and honestly upsetting that they dont want to put the time in to optimize the game

[prisma anvil]

128 players with this alot of graphics and things need to compute. It's gonna scale with cpu and ram.

This is also not the first game that does this. (warzone)

[shell lantern]

i run 150 frames in warzone

[prisma anvil]

What's ur cpu?

[shell lantern]

ryzen 3600x with 16 gb or ram

[prisma anvil]

I said scale with cpu and ram.

U should be getting around 80 fps

[shell lantern]

ive also seen videos of people benchmarking with my same exact system and getting frames way better

i get like 40-50

[prisma anvil]

Is ur xmp enabled?

[shell lantern]

yes

[cinder flint]

hi , can anyone help me with my bf4?

[prisma anvil]

Ram slot in 2 and 4 of mobo?

[shell lantern]

yes all is correct and ive gone as far to update my bios to solve this issue and still nothing

[prisma anvil]

Thats weird.

What's ur in game setting?

[cinder flint]

my pc can't get my ps4 controller signal, even with a 360 converter

[shell lantern]

ive tried all different in game settings and still get around the same frames between 40- low 60s

[prisma anvil]

Hmmm. Are u on ur pc rn?

[cinder flint]

but at the same time, my bf1 can function well

[shell lantern]

yea

[prisma anvil]

OK I'll dm u

[shell lantern]

okay thanks

[cinder flint]

[toxic copper]

Windows > Linux

[quick locust]

Not really

They are both tools suited to different tasks

Not much reason to use windows on epyc bare metal

[toxic copper]

Well average gaming pc

The UI of Linux just looks so bad

[quick locust]

There's no UI of linux

It's a kernel

But there's GNOME, KDE, xfce, wayfire, sway etc

Quite a few options

Granted a lot of it doesn't have a huge budget supporting it

Since companies using linux mostly focus on embedded or server or android

[toxic copper]

Yeah way to complicated

Windows more user friendly

[quick locust]

You're more used to it

FreeBSD and Linux aren't hard in normal use

Neither is windows

I agree a lot could be done for the UX

But there would need bigger budget and development for desktop

[lunar dawn]

i mean your phone runs linux

[quick locust]

Unless he's an iphone user

[toxic copper]

My phone runs iOS

[quick locust]

Lol

[toxic copper]

Lol

[lunar dawn]

and also there are quite a few options for ui and you can change them hiwever you want

[toxic copper]

I’d never use android

[lunar dawn]

ios is based on linux as well

[quick locust]

No it isn't

[toxic copper]

Very bold of u to assume that

[quick locust]

It's darwin based

[lunar dawn]

still unix isnt it

[quick locust]

Unix like yeah

But not linux

[lunar dawn]

ok

[quick locust]

But yeah there's lots of choices for UI

[lunar dawn]

anyway linux is used more for servers, even microsoft uses it

[toxic copper]

Yeah but why would I switch

[quick locust]

A lot of the DEs could use higher dev budget though

Didn't tell you to

[toxic copper]

What importance does this make

[lunar dawn]

the people that switch did it bcs of privacy and security but anyway why would you switch if you dont care

[quick locust]

You just said windows > linux

Which isn't really the case depending on what you're doing

[toxic copper]

Are we talking about apple or windows now

[lunar dawn]

linux

[quick locust]

Noone told you to switch

[midnight crypt]

hold on i have a great meme for this

[toxic copper]

All I was saying is that windows is more popular for a reason

[midnight crypt]

"I use Linux as my operating system," I state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. He swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision. "Actually", he says with a grin, "Linux is just the kernel. You use GNU+Linux!' I don't miss a beat and reply with a smirk, "I use Alpine, a distro that doesn't include the GNU coreutils, or any other GNU code. It's Linux, but it's not GNU+Linux."

The smile quickly drops from the man's face. His body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth and drops to the floor with a sickly thud. As he writhes around he screams "I-IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT'S STILL GNU!" Coolly, I reply "If windows was compiled with gcc, would that make it GNU?" I interrupt his response with "-and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. Even you were correct, you wont be for long."

With a sickly wheeze, the last of the man's life is ejected from his body. He lies on the floor, cold and limp. I've womansplained him to death.

[lunar dawn]

on some thing linux is better and in others windows is better, thats it

[quick locust]

Yeah they're both just tools

[lunar dawn]

who needs core utils anyway

[toxic copper]

Yeah I’m a keep it 100 most people who use Linux r like stereotypical Redditors

[lunar dawn]

brb gonna compile gentoo

[quick locust]

Most people that use it are sysadmins and devs

Not avg redditors

That and android

[lunar dawn]

i mean linux offers more security and privacy but the average users thinks its harder to use

[toxic copper]

What’s the difference

[lunar dawn]

at the end of the day you dont even need the terminal on most distros (to install a software)

[toxic copper]

See u lost me at that last sentence

Not harder my ass

[lunar dawn]

isnt linux also used in aws?

[quick locust]

Yes

[lunar dawn]

yeah so basically linux runs the internet

[quick locust]

And azure

[lunar dawn]

almost...

[quick locust]

Most other platforms too

Though some use BSDs as well

[prime jasper]

Linux is for nerds lol

[quick locust]

Being a nerd is a good thing

[prime jasper]

Not when it results in you becoming a Linux user

[lunar dawn]

tbf you can be a nerd even if you use windows

[prime jasper]

i've used Windows since like Windows 95 🤓

[noble bane]

you're ancient, man. probably pro level minesweep mastery

[prime jasper]

yes

[latent light]

Gonna confuse people

[quick locust]

yeah

with 12500 and 12650

[latent light]

i7 less total cores than i5

Also i7 naming usually starts with xx700 not 650

[prime jasper]

@gusty plaza what did u block me for lol

[lunar dawn]

i still dont get why a mobile cpu can be overclocked

like ... its already hot

[thorny bridge]

Can't your help me overlooking graphics card

[lunar dawn]

if you dont know what your doing check some tutorial on yt but in general try not to damage your hardware

if you want to overclock your gpu install a tool caller msi afterburner but check some tutorial on how to use it

My favorite is buildzoid. Linustechtips for entertainment only. Hardware unbox for monitor review only. Gamers Nexus for case reviews only. Frame chasers for cpu benchmark only.

[marsh gull]

i like gamersnexus and linus tech tips

[noble bane]

i follow no tech youtubers =/

[limber pulsar]

l

[prisma anvil]

Good. Alot of them are eh. And for tuners basically wrong most of the time.

[noble bane]

a lot of em repeat the same crap you can get from reading official stuff from manufacturers.

with an opinion attached and a beard.

And you get to see how much googling they did before writing the article as they mis-use terms here and there.

[prisma anvil]

Yeah so use common sense always and pick out which YouTubers is is the best for a specific content.

Like if I want to overclock ram or have ram recommendation for my cpu, I would completely avoid jayztwocents

[marsh gull]

[marsh gull]

lmao why

[noble bane]

id avoid that dude for anything short of "entertainment computer stuff"

[prisma anvil]

I want to say that but his custom water cooling build guide seems OK. Rest are a joke.

[noble bane]

Still.. how much time was spent behind the scenes to get that done just right

[prisma anvil]

His Asus sponsored 11th gen intel overclocking showcase

His does ram speed matter in gaming

His mismatch ram sticks video

People who brought zen2 cause mainstream YouTube recommended it years ago are struggling rn in 2042.

[noble bane]

werd.. i switched to a 5900x a week ago because the 3900x simply didnt do that well in it.

[prisma anvil]

Exactly, u went from a zen2 to zen 3

[noble bane]

im sure you can play BF2042 with a 3900x or zen2 series overall, it's just not going to work well if you aim for any setting above medium. it beats the cpu a lot and gpu utilization drops to crap. who would have thought just 20% ipc improvement would make such a difference. :p

[prisma anvil]

Yeah u can I see average of 70-90ish fps in 128 conquest

Thats about what zen 2 can do.

Consoles are zen2 as well

Zen3 u got decent IPC improvement, decent clockspeed improvement. Way better Pbo tuning in pbo2 and if u mess with ram. Better memory controller as well.

Add all that together.

[latent light]

Zen 3D hype

[noble bane]

YOU FORGET.. one thing. resizable bar as well.

[prisma anvil]

oh yeah my bad

[noble bane]

it does require a vbios update though.. so folks need to be aware of that one if they have 3070 or above gpus for team green

scary stuff

[prisma anvil]

vbios update is not that scary

[noble bane]

how to lose 1k+ in 30 seconds in spotty power areas

[prisma anvil]

oh

well then ur

[noble bane]

werd. alternatively run a ups

i had resizable bar enabled in bios but the gpu vbios wasn't updated until.. 6 mins ago?

easy as hell to forget that one

[prisma anvil]

precision X1 on evga card has like checklist was pretty useful

[noble bane]

ah, for me i had to remember everything. FE card. i just checked nvidia's site and noticed it said "ey click here after verifying the following to update yer vbios"

[fallen harbor]

hi, im paying for 300mb but i cant get past 100mb on my computer. What things should I aim at to try to fix this?

im using ethernet

[noble bane]

depends on the ports from your router/switch/pc.

modern PCs all of em have gigabit ports, but if you're using a crappy outdated router/switch it wont matter. 100 hard cap

[fallen harbor]

the router is the one provided by the isp. We hired them for 300mb from the start and thats the router they gave to us. My pc has an i5 8400 although i cant remember the motherboard

ds3 something

[noble bane]

you're plugged in directly to the router? whats the router? then i ask.. whats the cable? i dont know about where you live but ISP techs often give some crapppy stuff out for hardware/cabling

Also this channel aint for tech support. i always forget about that. 😄

[fallen harbor]

i am connected to the wall which has an ethernet connection inside the walls that goes to the router, so its kind of like pc > ethernet > ethernet > router which idk if its a bad thing or not. The cable is one I had myself, not one they gave to us, although idk anything about ethernet wire specifications tbh

[noble bane]

Err.. so wall plate, old ethernet run in the wall? 😄 - You may have some old cat5 in the wall. unless the cable you're using is cat5.. need minimum cat5e or above to get 300mbit

[fallen harbor]

the ethernet in the walls was put just some months ago so it isnt old, although i have no idea which type of cable they put in it sadly

[noble bane]

well i figured they'd follow spec and keep up with the times. So.. whats the cable ya got? :p normally itll have the category written on it and say 5/5e/6/6a whatever.

[quick locust]

Check ethernet auto negotiation settings

In windows

Set to 1000 mbps duplex

If it's set wrong

[marsh gull]

guys battlefield 1 keeps crashing on me

it boots in to the game menu, then if i click in the game window, anywhere, it just closes itself

i swear its so annying

but it doesnt do the same shit with bf 2402

which is a first

oh just discovered it does the same with apex

just perfect

[noble bane]

makes ya wonder a few things. but then i'm all reserved cuz ⚠️ and everyone seems to go here for computer issues.

[marsh gull]

i mean its kinda half the point of this channel

[midnight crypt]

its actually not the point of this channel but its used that way

[prisma anvil]

Yeah. 😅

[prime jasper]

Is flamethrower a gun ?
Is directed energy weapon a gun?

[noble bane]

technically anything that releases any kind of projectile.. energy is still being projected out functioning as a projectile in a way, just wouldnt be kinetic energy dependent like a rifle/handgun deal. flame thrower is throwing ignited fuel as a projectile.

[prime jasper]

@noble bane ah ok thanks for the informations

[vapid estuary]

try changing cable to cat5e or cat6 and check if your motherboard is capable of higher bandwidth

[fallen harbor]

it says its cat5e

[fallen harbor]

how do I do this? u_u

i have it like this

it was in auto before

https://i.imgur.com/UeB0q7R.png

but it still says 100mb here

[vapid estuary]

try updating the drivers

[fallen harbor]

windows says it has the latests drivers

motherboard is b360m-ds3h btw

[vapid estuary]

it only says this on their website 😔

[fallen harbor]

yeah i can't find anything

[vapid estuary]

https://www.tenforums.com/network-sharing/26796-help-lan-gigabit-alwasy-detect-100mbps.html

maybe its the faulty cable

[midnight crypt]

it should still say 1gb

even if it was faulty

[vague meadow]

No.

So @fallen harbor what all have you done so far?

[fallen harbor]

i would assume the ethernet cable that goes thru the walls isn't cat5e. It's my only guess

[vague meadow]

It’s only connecting at 100Mbps so you’ve got 1 of 2 things.

Or both who knows.

[midnight crypt]

uh yes?

[fallen harbor]

the cable that goes from my pc to the wall is cat5e but from there on theres another cable

[vague meadow]

A bad port on either side, a bad cable, or a mislabeled product.

[vague meadow]

No - if it can’t establish a GB link it won’t link up at a GB.

[vapid estuary]

no

[vague meadow]

That’s entirely false sir.

[fallen harbor]

maybe the router isn't suited for cat5e cables

idk

i should call the isp probably

[vague meadow]

Maybe the router doesn’t have 1Gb LAN ports.

I’d check your spec sheet on the router before you call your ISP - I doubt they will be much help.

You’re having LAN link issues past their demarc.

[vapid estuary]

some routers have options to change bandwidth on specific lan ports so might wanna try that

[fallen harbor]

in the router settings via the browser?

[vague meadow]

Just like in Windows you may have to force the LAN @ a GB.

[vapid estuary]

some routers have settings via browser some have via phone apps

[vague meadow]

Correct - the administration login.

Some use apps, telnet, ssh, web administration, and many different standards/methods.

Google your routers model number/name and you should find a multitude of guides showing you how to login to it.

@fallen harbor

[fallen harbor]

idk how to find this specific configuration though

i am logged in

[vapid estuary]

click on every options starting from the top thats what i would do

[vague meadow]

Most likely in your LAN settings @fallen harbor if it’s an option.

You want to force the LAN you’re currently plugged into to a gigabit.

But before we go down that rabbit hole what is your router’s make/model @fallen harbor ?

I want to find a spec sheet for it and see what your ports are rated @

[fallen harbor]

i will check right now gimme a sec

i feel like each ampere cores arent as powerful as turing or even pascal

They're not

Ampere GPU with 2048 cores is basically equivalent to a Turing GPU with about 1200 cores

Yo I need some help. So I have a PC and my buddy has an Xbox one. I got 2042 standard edition but I still can’t play with home. Can’t even find his EA ID. We both have cross platform enable too. Any help?

[fallen harbor]

computer goes to this

[pale quartz]

as in what is the model number for your modem

you can try forcing your NIC into master mode to force gigabit but it likely won't resolve the problem

[fallen harbor]

RTF8115VW is the model

[pale quartz]

has this just randomly occurred?

also if you haven't already, upgrade the firmware for that modem immediately, it is vulnerable to a cross site scripting attack

[latent light]

My grandma still uses a Linksys modem from 2004 lmao

[pale quartz]

yeah this is why, especially with networking devices you do not use out of date stuff

loads of stuff from the 2000's era with vulnerabilities through FTP

[latent light]

Her computer is old too, also still on windows 7

[pale quartz]

anyone using windows 7 in 2021 is pretty much endorsing themselves to getting compromised at this point

[noble bane]

bro, type in ncpa.cpl go to your ethernet adapter’s properties check the duplex mode for the actual port on the pc doing this and do not force any particular speed, auto negotiate always. then. big brain moment. plug directly into the router by dragging your computer over to the same room where the router is.
ideally youd judt have a long ass cable on standby or have the abiliity to migrate the router/modem nearby or connect a laptop if one is available to avoid all thatz

wow

get ready for the 4090$ price tag before scalpers get their hands on it

lets go nvidia with the new, unbuyable gpus in every single way

these days are perfect

[quick locust]

lol

[marsh gull]

tbh at least radion isnt as much scalped as nvidia

[quick locust]

they used to be

vega series was gone for a year

due to mining

[marsh gull]

like a 3060 at my local computer center is like 5500hkd (700usd) and i managed to get the almost equivalent rx 6600 gigabyte eagle for like 4000hkd (500usd)

[marsh gull]

woo lets go miners whats left of the scalped used gpus they gobble them up to get 0.005usd more per month

[quick locust]

that was in 2017 ish

vega series was just gone

since they were good for mining

[marsh gull]

haha ofc they vanish if they're good for mining

[quick locust]

yeah

until mining bobble went away

in 2018 ish

[marsh gull]

well i mean miners are still going at it

they're not the main problem but its sure doesnt help

[storm osprey]

you know according to steam survey there are more 3090s in gamers hands than there are the entire amd 6000 series lineup...

[latent light]

RX 6000 supply is still much lower than RTX 3000

[storm osprey]

right, one point against his narrative that nvidia is unbuyable vs amd

[latent light]

Depends on country too

ehh sure there might be specific scenarios where that plays out, but you dont get an entire lineup showing up less on steam survery than the extreme top end 3090 any other way

Hey

Should I go for an APU or a graphic card

Gonna go mid end

[weak girder]

[dire tusk]

I bought the game to not have the lobby available in Brazil at 08:00 (BRA)

[latent pebble]

Guys I'm having an issue with windows, Everytime I boot my PC it loads in fast but it get stuck on the Windows Lock Screen where you type your pin code.
But the thing is my keyboard and mouse wont load until having to wait for like an extra 30 seconds so I can input my pin and login. happens only after boot and its different from that old glitch where your keyboard does nothing, on this one it feels like my keyboard and mouse arent even plugged in and after 30 secs or so the keyboard and mouse rgb lights up and the inputs work

[pale quartz]

you'll need to change your keyboard boot priority allocation as it's 90% on automatic deferred - services.msc and locate the driver provider for the keyboard and set it to automatic for boot priority

[pale quartz]

there is no such thing as "going for an APU" - the iGP exists on the CPU die meaning you literally can't upgrade it without getting a new processor, you have no choice but to get a dedicated card in some capacity

[pulsar sentinel]

I mean for the initial build

Probably eventually gonna add the GPU later

I'm kinda conservative in terms of budget.

[pale quartz]

iGPUs are not built for gaming and they certainly aren't going to boot any games akin to battlefield

they exist purely for acceleration and display outputs

[pulsar sentinel]

What about the Steam Deck though?

[pale quartz]

what about it? it has a compatibility layer between the game and the OS stack which allows for games to run on it

this doesn't exist on desktop machines

[pulsar sentinel]

Wine right?

[pale quartz]

and you're comparing a tiny form factor to a monitor class system these are not comparable

like at all

[pulsar sentinel]

Okay

I will just bow down to my RGB overlords.

😆

[raw turtle]

what price range would you consider “mid end” and what games are you gonna be playing?

[pulsar sentinel]

I'm not a nerdful gamer who plays every sort of games, but I think the minimum should be the bare minimum for playing most f2p games.

[raw turtle]

that’s a pretty big range

[pulsar sentinel]

I mean

[raw turtle]

warzone - fn - LoL

[pulsar sentinel]

most f2p games doesn't mean most literally though.

Like

No way I play Warzone

Warzone is just bloated and I'm not a fan of it.

[raw turtle]

well it’s good to know you have realistic expectations

[pulsar sentinel]

Fortnite, I don't play it.

[pulsar sentinel]

Yeah, I mean

I like to save money,

Because if I don't, I can spend a lot of money once per two years, which is bad since I'm still a student.

You know, FOMO stuff does make things bad.

[raw turtle]

a ryzen 5 5600g/ryzen 7 5700g isn’t a bad idea

if they did a black version how would that be a notctua set of keycaps?

outside of the noctua branding on they keycaps a black set would be just about any other set out there

yea thats just dumb

[prime jasper]

no, there’s a noctua logo on one of the keys

[storm osprey]

"outside of the noctua branding on they keycaps"

[prime jasper]

I mean, I thought it looked nice, the og noctua colorway is hideous to me but to each their own

[storm osprey]

yes all black looks nice, but theres like 100 keycaps out there that are black...

the only differing factors in the noctua black set is the logo/naming...

[prime jasper]

[storm osprey]

like you gotta be a real big fanboy to get a black noctua keycap set

[molten coral]

Man i'm still waiting for my switches to arrive so I can finally build my keyboard 😤

Already waiting for 2,5 weeks

If those black keycaps gonna cost the same than just don't bother and just get another set.

A logo isn't worth 130 bucks lol

[untold gull]

Hey! Quick question but one of my friends is having the infamous glitch that prohibits you from looking left and right. The issue is the document that is suggested to be deleted to fix the issue is non existent in his pc. When trying to directly run it, it will still come up dry. Anyone have any suggestions? He has also tried to repair, uninstall and reinstall, and pretty much anything on google.

[drifting glen]

Check to see if it is in the onedrive cloud versus a physical drive on the pc or the other way around. I know this happened to me in BFV. Alternatively have him try unbinding the actual direction inputs and rebinding only to mouse. They default to both keyboard and mouse options for directions

Binding them in the in game settings

[untold gull]

Thanks I appreciate it!

[untold gull]

Sadly it seems that he already tried both things. With the one drive being him moving the entire game from drive to drive in attempt to fix the issue and when it comes to the mouse bindings he has tried that too it seems.

[drifting glen]

I’m sorry to hear. I can only imagine how frustrating that would be

A popular suggestion online for a blanket fix is to clear the cache see if he’s tried that and if not a quick google search and he can get it done fast

[untold gull]

Thanks I will make sure he tries that!

https://www.techpowerup.com/289923/intel-core-i5-12400-early-review-dubs-it-a-game-changer

This review is pointless, they took i9-12900K and disabled all the E-cores and 2 of the P-cores to simulate a i5-12400 which isn't comparable really

[eager whale]

How is that a review....? They are just using an i9-12900k with less cores

[prisma anvil]

I don't think it's accurate. However it does give us a general idea of its performance.

Same architecture.

Same clockspeed.

Also of course it's energy efficient, alderlake is more energy efficient than zen3.

Also in in gaming wise e cores barely do anything. 12400f only p core is a great idea.

If I have 12th gen, I'd disable the e cores anyways for gaming.

[modern gull]

Probably cause it's so many small files, maybe putting them in 1 archive would speed it up

[vital hornet]

takes time to archive and then unarchive so itll probably be the same

[lunar dawn]

yeah hdds are pretty slow

i honestly would buy a sata ssd instead even thought they are more expensive

[vapid estuary]

to simulate it and get the idea of how its gonna perform roughly

[modern gull]

I do got a m.2 for my main drive, but the SSD's i have had has been pretty unreliable. And the HDD is mainly for storage anyways. From experience they are more reliable

Thinking about brands the SSD's i had was from kingston and i will never use them again. Considering how unreliable they are and how much money i lost using them. They did have decent speed but you can't rely on them tbh

[lunar dawn]

what ssd you got

i personally use a 2tb samsung 970 evo plus, very good experience so far

and for second driver a samsung 860 evo 2tb sata ssd

[modern gull]

Currently crucial m.2, mostly had good experience with their products including ram

[prime jasper]

I’m currently using a 500gb Kingston A2000 that has been solid until now, 2nd drive is Samsung 980 1tb, which I also recommend

980 is useless unless you have pcie gen 4

it’s a gen 3 drive

Best python IDE recommendations?

[broken hamlet]

I'm not sure why yet, but 2042 seems to be very RAM dependent. Today I upgraded from 3200 CL16 to 4400 CL19 (32GB) and with that alone I have around 10-20 more FPS. An increase that I have not noticed in any other game.

[prisma anvil]

I said this sooo many times haha

Other games that scales with ram are overwatch, destiny 2 (mainly lows) 2077 and warzone.

Also 4400 cl19. Dang what cpu and mobo?

[lunar dawn]

also make sure you re using xmp/docp with such a nice kit

[broken hamlet]

Yes ofcourse.

I am using a custom watercooled build with a 10700k OC to 5 Ghz allcore and a MSI Suprim X 3070

Makes sense.

MSI are goated for ram overclocking

Even the mid range

[broken hamlet]

Yes its a midrange Board and i must say the stability you get is insane.

[prisma anvil]

I heard msi is one of the best on both z590 and z690 as well

[broken hamlet]

All my life i was using Asus Boards. Its my first MSI Board and i really like it. Simple but good Bios and very user friendly in terms of OC.

@prisma anvil @broken hamlet you guys should try evga bios my current rig is the first time I’m using one however in my opinion I think it’s the best bios I’ve used compared to asus, msi, gigabyte, asrock, and hp.

Hers also my current specs.

CPU - Intel I9 10900X

RAM - 8x G.Skill Trident Z RGB Series 8GB (64 GB Total)

Motherboard - EVGA X299 FTWK

Storage - 1x 500gb Samsung 850evo, 1x 2TB HDD

GFX - EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 FTW 8GB

PSU - CORSAIR RM850x

Reusing my old gpu as I didn’t want to pay scalper prices for a new one. Will also be upgrading my storage to nvme ssd soon.

[lunar dawn]

my guy using 8 sticks of ram and no ssd nvme

[wintry coral]

It’s better to spread ram out along more sticks. But yeah I am also reusing my old storage as well from my old computer.

That motherboard actually supports 128gb of ram but I don’t need that much.

[lunar dawn]

actually no

since very very very few apps can take advantage of that mich bandwidth

in a normal game scenario nothing will change basically

but yeah get a 2tb 970 evo plus

from samsung

that will make a bigger difference than having 8 sticks of ram

[wintry coral]

Yeah I was looking at that

[lunar dawn]

or if you want something pcie gen4 then the 980 pro is on sale on amazon (where i live)

idk about you

[lunar dawn]

i meam even 64 is already overkill unelss you edit at 8k or compile giant projects

[wintry coral]

And dude I know how to build computers, you want ram spread across smaller gb sticks vs a couple larger sticks. I been building computers and working on them for about 20 years. However yeah I was looking at the Samsung nvme 970 evo plus.

modern DDR4 ram does not scale to better performance with dual vs quad channel

depends, on some types of tasks yes like rendering i think but in gaming it makes no difference also hes using 8 sticks of ram not even 4 lmao, what makes the difference is mt/s and cas latency

[raw turtle]

a bit more than i thought

honestly not sure how intel deals with that

2x quad channel load on the IMC?

• https://youtu.be/pl7RmKSjHOc

In summary: 50-60 fps on 1080p low settings. (If you do get the additional 8gb of ram, which you definitely should)

[desert bloom]

Appreciate it alot dude. Nice to have the reassurance from someone that knows what they're on about 😅

[eager whale]

I have a pretty similar laptop. You'll have to flick around with the settings and you should get 60fps constantly with a mix of Ultra and Medium settings

[desert bloom]

Oh dam sick, was worried about being able to run the game at all, appreciate it!

[eager whale]

No problem mate

Give me a shout if you want my settings layout if you get the laptop

[lusty cave]

Yo i've seen benchmarks of people with exactly the same pc as me, running bf2042 in 1440p with ultra settings getting higher fps than me

i run a 5600x, 16gb 3600MHz, 6700 xt

and i barely get 80 fps on lowest settings with everything off

am i missing something

How can i optimize the game better

[near rune]

Nvidia settings and make sure theres no useless programs running

Like an external antivirus

Tuning the nvidia settings gave me like 20 more fps in bf4

[lusty cave]

Nvidia settings on AMD GPU?

[lunar dawn]

going to run yes, probably 50-60 fps anyway get that 16 gbs of ram

also game needs optimisation

rn bfv/bf1 are more optimised and more fun to play imo

[desert bloom]

👍

im playing with gtx 1650 + i5 10400f but the gpu isn't being used 100%, it always hangs on like 70%.

Maybe its cpu bottlenecked

[cursive ermine]

Nah, it's not, I watched benchmark of some other guy with same specs and he had the gpu usage at normal %

[vapid estuary]

What is your memory configuration and resolution?

[cursive ermine]

i got 16 gb memory and resolutin is 1920 x 1080

[vapid estuary]

Do u have 2 of 8gb sticks placed one slot apart from each other also running at above 3000mhz?

[cursive ermine]

i got one 16gb stick

[vapid estuary]

Thats probably why then

[cursive ermine]

Should I buy two 8gb rams then?

that are above 3000mhz

This is dumb

[midnight crypt]

just like audiophiles

[prime jasper]

true..

[latent light]

[vital hornet]

Theres definitely something to the audiophile scene

My ears are too dumb to get it tho

But that ssd, yeah lol

[idle dust]

LOL

[quick locust]

https://www.tomshardware.com/news/ethernet-switch-for-audiophiles its like this

[balmy hill]

OMG If EA will add vulcan or Dx11 the fps will fly up

[humble iris]

Opinions, Will I lose FPS in 2042 if I upgrade from 5930K to 6950X

Also it might take a month to get the 6950X lol..

[balmy hill]

.-. no

[balmy hill]

thats the BEST multi core CPU rn

for gaming

[humble iris]

really? I had no idea, I've been using the 5930k for 6 years, and did not buy the 6950X cause it cost $2000.00 at the time. I can get a 6950X for $200 right now NEW, but says may have scratches on the PCB but tested and works 100%

[balmy hill]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Buy new pls don't do that It will have very bad cooling

The air will be traped in the scratches

don't even think about it

[humble iris]

It's on the bottom, not the heat spreader. New this thing cost maybe $1800.00 and that's not economically viable. I can build a new 12900k full system for that. I have never purchased anything open box or blem electronics.

“Bulk new. Cosmetic blemish, such as scratches and damaged on the PCB. Not used. Not repaired. 100% functional.”

[balmy hill]

wait

[humble iris]

1 year warranty, Ebay money back gurantee

[balmy hill]

You mean 5950x?

[humble iris]

no 6950X

[balmy hill]

HAHAHHA

BRO its a scam

thats not even a thing

[humble iris]

yeah it is, CPU not GPU

[balmy hill]

Ryzens last cpu is 5000

not 6000

[humble iris]

Intel i7-6950X, X99

[balmy hill]

oh

BRUH

[humble iris]

I know what your going to say. It's old

[balmy hill]

Bro you should get 5950x

Its better at every aspect

and its on sale rn on amazon

[humble iris]

I already have the Motherboard, and everything its 6 years old

[balmy hill]

sell it

bro

[humble iris]

no way

[balmy hill]

its still gonna be cheaper and WAAAYYY better

[humble iris]

It's my workstation, waiting for new intel HEDT to replace it, I can get 70% workstation performance increase, but wondering if gaming will lose a bit

[balmy hill]

BRO 6950X has only 10 cores when 5950x has 16

[vital hornet]

Get off your high horse and ditch the old junk

[balmy hill]

FOR 1000$ LESS

[humble iris]

yeah but it wont physically fit nor be compatible witn my board

[balmy hill]

Bro you can get a perfect mobo for 5950x for less then 250$

[humble iris]

were talking $200 for the cpu

[balmy hill]

we are talking about a 66month old scrachet cpu from ebay

[humble iris]

I know it's better and all, but I'm waiting for an actual workstation/sever platform

[balmy hill]

idk man you pick

[humble iris]

its just to hoild me over for another year

[balmy hill]

why do you think he is selling 2000$ cpu for 200$?

[humble iris]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/203172657482?hash=item2f4e08b94a:g:9WcAAOSw~8dhLGFq&var=503525727566#viTabs_0

yeah I would have already done it, if I trusted it. but ebay guarantee

[balmy hill]

thats just a word

[humble iris]

this is what I'm using now, just need to get by for 1 year. https://builds.gg/builds/raid-red-rtx-ws-14981

should get me 70% increase in performance for everything except gaming

but yeah this cpu on ebay does seem scammy

there are used ones for sale for a bit cheaper or same price.

[supple galleon]

anyone here have a 240 hz monitor? I got one set it up and i could use some help

[humble iris]

whats the problem?

[raw turtle]

You are looking online for a new CPU not even produced anymore. that’s why it’s listed as expensive.

[raw turtle]

the hell it’s not

12900k shits on it

[humble iris]

WTH?

12900k only has what 16/24 lanes?

[balmy hill]

Im not looking for it

[balmy hill]

Im talking about a 5950x not 6950x

[humble iris]

Max # of PCI Express Lanes
20

[balmy hill]

Its just the new platform

[latent light]

12900K wins in multithread on Cinebench but 5950X will win in real workloads that use thread count

[humble iris]

but does any of these have 112 PCIe lanes

[balmy hill]

Dont forget that 12th gen has ddr5

[latent light]

12th gen can use DDR4/DDR5 depending on motherboard

[balmy hill]

Yes but do you really think that intel will show results without ddr5?

[humble iris]

I wouldnt use older motherboard with newer CPU though, Z690/12th

[balmy hill]

Also nobody does that

[humble iris]

👍

[latent light]

DDR5 kits are garbage atm

[humble iris]

might as well go with 11th/ddr4

[balmy hill]

Its still better then ddr4

[humble iris]

all new tech sucks at first, let it mature

kind of like 2042

it's soooo much better now

[latent light]

DDR4 still better in gaming thanks to latency

[humble iris]

for now maybe

[latent light]

You can get top binned DDR4 for the price of entry level DDR5

[prisma anvil]

DDR5? Where?

[humble iris]

I'm skipping past all mainstream junk, and staying with HEDT where this DDR5 will be massive, I'm hoping 8 channel memory but doubt it.

[prisma anvil]

Then wait for about a year or 2.

[humble iris]

yeah maybe next year

[latent light]

Threadripper already has 8-channel memory support for the Pro 3000 series and upcoming 5000 series

[prisma anvil]

U will need a new mobo and cpu anyways

[humble iris]

yeah but I'm not looking to heat my house lol...

I almost went with threadripper, or epyc

[latent light]

Threadripper is more power efficient than a i7-6950X

[humble iris]

that's just a temporary upgrade to get me another year or so

[latent light]

Any Intel HEDT CPU even those weak ass 6-core i7-6800K will draw over 200 watts when boosting

[humble iris]

maybe speed up my workload, and archiving, backups etc...

my shit is old rn, this will be 7 years, and still kicking @$$

[prisma anvil]

Yeah current workstation and hedt lineup are kinda bad rn.

[humble iris]

yes, this is correct

[prisma anvil]

Threadripper has alot of cores but bad IPC, intel has cores and IPC but sucks power and still old architecture.

Like the best gaming while hedt option rn is 10980xe?

[latent light]

AMD isn't in a hurry to release new Threadripper lineup because the 3990WX is still unmatched in multithread performance

[humble iris]

right on point, it's why I was thinking about grabbing that $200 6950X, but really may not be worth my time IDK.

[prisma anvil]

But like 12900k pretty much can equal or beat it multithreaded wise.

[latent light]

Maybe the TR 3960X

[prisma anvil]

Nah, bad IPC.

[latent light]

IPC ain't bad

[prisma anvil]

And clock speed.

Zen2 IPC and clockspeed is 🤌

Tuned many zen2 now and gaming performance when tuned just lags. Really funny how mainstream tech tubers back then said its a good gaming cpu

Now I am here ING while they struggle in 2042 etc.

[humble iris]

I just hope the GPU idiocy is over in a year.

[prisma anvil]

[midnight crypt]

youre hoping for too much

[humble iris]

I have a feeling the market will be flooded with 30 series

people selling bulk 60 cards on ebay, while people can't get 1 for double msrp

it will implode, and tech will stagnate

everyone will be broke, with a pile of RTX Bricks

then they will end up over producing to meet demand, while the market is flooded, next up RTX Clearance inventory reduction sales

then, no technological advancements for 4 years

[latent light]

Shortage is gonna be even worse when RTX 4000 and RX 7000 launches

[vapid estuary]

Buying a prebuilt here is cheaper than paying scalper prices just for the gpu only

[humble iris]

I think the rushed manufacturing, and material shortage is gonna affect quality

[vapid estuary]

Machines do the most manufacturing

[latent light]

I've heard of RTX 3080/3090 chips cracking because of rapid thermal expansion under workload

[humble iris]

actually did this, I needed a video card for NVENC Encode so bought a Best Buy prebuilt for the 1650 Super, and my mom now has the 3600 cpu, it only had 1 stick single memory but otherwise was decent build

[humble iris]

yeah but engineers program the machines to thin the PCB, and use less material to stretch the dollar

engineering of the past = build it strong so it will last.

engineering today = build it as cheap and weak as possible just enough that it will function and pass.

see how shitty we can make it before it breaks, then bump it up a notch.

[vapid estuary]

If the circuit is complex enough its gonna be thicker with more layers if its not it will be the opposite

[humble iris]

It's always about money, never anything else

[humble iris]

but yeah this is true

[prisma anvil]

my gpu can get served by my 10 years warranty

[latent light]

I've seen shitty dirt cheap hardware survive for decades and I've seen high quality enthusiast hardware bite the dust after just days of use

It's all a gamble

Generally high power consumption hardware has higher failure rates than efficiency focused hardware

[pale quartz]

not exactly

any mass sell off will have a negligible difference on ASP even in large volumes, there are 2 elements you are neglecting to consider here, 1: the sheer amount of demand there is and 2: people who buy cards on the assumption that the market rate will rise later, so called speculative buyers

the first will totally wash away any mass sell off especially at any meagre price reduction, because current demand is at the highest it has ever been in market history and if this does not occur, the sheer envy this will cause for the second will be far more than enough to totally negate any mass sell off of 30 cards on the open market

[thorny bridge]

Hey

Run 70 fps good

[pale quartz]

there will be no mass self off of 30 series cards however

this isn't the days of 2080ti panic selling, it's a current market of scarcity

[prisma anvil]

3090 new world brick gang

[thorny bridge]

Do u have solution optimization fps

[pale quartz]

anyone selling a 30 series card must ensure they will be able to get a second card, and that will be not guaranteed whatsoever

[thorny bridge]

Hello

hes back

and still messing with things he has no clue what they do

okay but think of his wifi

Its not fast enough

fix it

I have drops fps

[prime jasper]

who’s drops and why do you have their fps

[pale quartz]

are you intentionally ignoring that?

[midnight crypt]

just look at how many times hes said that

hes approaching 100 times
