yeah -.-

#

I saw many hackers regardless

trim rock
#

EAC does have native support though, so not really a valid excuse IMO

fading spade
#

it does?!

feral ferry
#

We need Denuvo for anti cheat

#

Oh wait that failed..

fading spade
#

the thing is
ALL their games, except Sandstorm is on Linux

ornate cedar
#

anti-cheats dont like linux for being too competent in security

feral ferry
#

Cracked within few days and also fucked all users lul

ornate cedar
#

I remember simcity

fading spade
#

anti-cheats dont like linux for being too competent in security
@ornate cedar blobfacepalm

fringe salmon
#

then I guess only sandstorm is using EAC

feral ferry
#

At least currently the only real way to somewhat hinder hackers is to actively monitor what hooks into the game process

ornate cedar
#

simcity was online only even soloplay but not the cracked version..

feral ferry
#

Other than that, I dunno

red socket
#

IS unreal tournament good?

ornate cedar
#

There was no reason to not crack the game. Even having a legit copy was not worth it as it lacks the offline play the cracked version allowed.

fading spade
#

IS unreal tournament good?
@red socket of course! its Unreal

ornate cedar
#

Its epic

red socket
#

epic games

#

@fading spade but is it realy

ornate cedar
#

making games that are epic

fading spade
#

XD

red socket
#

but is it actualy goods

ornate cedar
#

I would not use it in trades

red socket
#

?

#

im so confused

ornate cedar
#

money is more portable

red socket
#

that depends on how strict you difine money

ornate cedar
#

goods (=trade item)

red socket
#

you can kidnap people and drag them around

feral ferry
#

Epic makes epyc look good

#

And that's a crappy name

ornate cedar
#

Im playing 7d chess here keep up or I will lose from the 8D chess player

feral ferry
#

4D confuses the fuck out of me, how is 7D even a thing?

red socket
#

do you actualy wana play 8d ches rn

ornate cedar
#

Extended PYthon Controller

red socket
#

it has time

4D confuses the fuck out of me, how is 7D even a thing?
@feral ferry

feral ferry
#

What

red socket
#

you can kill a player in the past

#

later on

#

you wana try?

feral ferry
#

What? lul

#

What you on about?

ornate cedar
#

An 2D object wont comprehend 3D as it seems to just grow and shrink non-sensisicle from his 2d view

#

pretty much the same but 4D for 3D

red socket
fading spade
#

Vexx, what shaders did you want me to try?

feral ferry
#

4D makes no sense t ome

#

SEUS PTGI @fading spade

#

Or just regular old SEUS tbh

#

That thing is hard to run

#

But boy it looks marvelous

fading spade
#

I downloaded SEUS Renewal today

#

I ran it fine

feral ferry
#

Maxed out?

fading spade
#

yeah, except I turned off godrays cause I hate them

ornate cedar
#

Also there is a difference between spacial dimensions and any dimensions

feral ferry
ornate cedar
#

6D = roll, yaw, pitch, x,y,z

feral ferry
#

Is my rig shit or what?

fading spade
#

what gpu?

feral ferry
#

I have same CPU, better GPU

#

5700 obviously

fading spade
#

ooh

feral ferry
#

How are you running it better than me

#

Wait what are my mem timings

ornate cedar
#

3 spacial dimension + 3 orientational dimensions

fading spade
feral ferry
#

Oh no

#

I need a RAM upgrade..

ornate cedar
#

I like the BSL shader more

feral ferry
#

2400MHz on Ryzen is really bad..

fading spade
#

is there a way to turn off the sort of artificial looking brightness shit? it seems like its putting a white but mostly transparent layer over the screen

#

thats a reason I dont like SEUS

feral ferry
#

It's only now I realize, I have an 860 EVO 1TB

#

I always thought it was a regular Samsung 860

#

Got it for 100$ flat on Amazon

trim rock
#

AMD has horrible OpenGL performance on Windows, try Linux!

tough jay
#

860 evo is the standard 860 ?

fading spade
#

AMD actually suggest to use Clear Linux cause it runs faster than any other distro on AMD CPUs

feral ferry
#

I always thought the "EVO" is like Nvidia's Super

fading spade
#

IRONY

#

cause Clear Linux is Intel's distro

feral ferry
#

Ahh that's why you are beating me

fading spade
#

huh?

feral ferry
#

Cause I am a plebian Win10 user

fading spade
#

LOL

feral ferry
#

Send dick pics

#

Wait what

#

No

#

Send bench score pics

#

I ain't letting this one go

#

This rig will be good or I quit

fading spade
#

idk how to benchmark

feral ferry
#

Just run Cinebench and Firestrike

fading spade
#

windows tho

#

I nu haz dat

feral ferry
#

I believe Linux has at least Cinebench?

fringe salmon
#

yeah if you emulate it, so not really

fading spade
#

whats their website? maxon?

trim rock
#

Cinebench is a meme tho who actually uses Cinema 4D

fringe salmon
#

also what would it matter if you say you have the same cpu

fading spade
fringe salmon
#

cb is not a gpu bench

feral ferry
#

It's a CPU bench

#

Yeah I want to bench both CPU, GPU and a combined test

#

I don't even know what does that and is available on Linux

trim rock
#

Unigine benchmarks

fringe salmon
#

ah yes the brand new benchmark

fading spade
fringe salmon
#

from like 2013

trim rock
#

2017

feral ferry
#

Yeah I know you got 3200MHz

#

Mine's 2400 ffs

fringe salmon
#

so OC yours

feral ferry
#

That's DDR3 levels

fading spade
#

did you check to see if you can unlock full speed in bios?

feral ferry
#

Nah I don't OC

fading spade
#

my friend did that for me cause otherwise id be in 2666MHz

#

before we even installed the OS

#

he did that xd

feral ferry
#

Aight I'll see

fading spade
#

oook

fringe salmon
#

check if you can find XMP but I doubt you have it

fading spade
#

its kind of lame they dont run it at the advertised speed ;-;

ornate cedar
#

I have never overclocked my hardware. Only undervolted my laptop cpu once

fading spade
#

the box says 3200 but its 2666 dfault

ornate cedar
#

Cant be bothered really

fringe salmon
#

it's not lame, its because that is the max speed the CPU is officially rated at

#

cant make it higher by default or they would void warranty which you cant do as a vendor

fading spade
#

im talking about ram

fringe salmon
#

yes

ornate cedar
#

wait really?

#

thats scummy

fringe salmon
#

??? no

#

scummy and illegal would be selling a product that voids warranty if you ever start it

ornate cedar
#

Warrenty must cover operation on that spec yes

#

it must even as that is the promised perf

fringe salmon
#

no

fading spade
#

You saying I broke warranty on my RAM by making it run at the advertised speed?

fringe salmon
#

technically if you enable XMP or do manual OC, yes

fading spade
#

-.-

fringe salmon
#

practically, if they ever ask just say you didnt and they cant proof it

#

so ignore it

ornate cedar
#

So if it cant reach 3200 advertised speed it is not a manufacturers fault?

fading spade
#

I dont have swap, should I make a swap file?

#

because idk if the freezing is because of not having one

ornate cedar
#

Small one for the legacy programs

#

or big if you like having tabs but no tab on the tabs

#

having no memory left in main or swap makes the entire system lag

fading spade
#

yeh but I never use 16GB ram

#

I barely hit 8GB

ornate cedar
#

I have reached my 16gb of main memory few times :)

fading spade
#

OOOF

ornate cedar
#

and 8gb of swap

fading spade
#

O.o

ornate cedar
#

nearly all of that was webcontent

#

ayy lmao

#

currently using 8GiB exactly

#

running minecraft

fading spade
#

I have 4.5GB used with chrome and discord and steam downloading a game

feral ferry
#

There is something really wrong with my rig

#

Went into BIOS

#

Did a target clock for RAM of 3200

ornate cedar
#

Minecraft(java) is currently 38.1% of total memory use

#

lol

feral ferry
#

And also upvolted from 1.2V to 1.3V

#

Here is the thing

ornate cedar
#

webcontent is 11.2

feral ferry
#

Whenever I mess with settings on BIOS

#

It doesn't post after I save and restart

#

I need to cut off power to make it hard reset

ornate cedar
#

Because it doesnt commit them to its eeprom

feral ferry
#

But that doesn't save changes

fringe salmon
#

so you change stuff that doesn't work

feral ferry
#

Fucking hell last time I was in BIOS, I tried to enable CPU virtualization and it doesn't work

ornate cedar
#

to make sure that it boots no matter how borked the settings are

feral ferry
#

They are basically default

fringe salmon
#

you just need to make changes in lower increments

feral ferry
#

Ehh here's the thing, it doesn't really post no matter what I change

#

The mobo shits itself

ornate cedar
#

you move the settings towards your desired settings slowly and benchmark to check for artifacts,etc

fringe salmon
#

so up the voltage a bit when you increase ram speed, loosen timings

trim rock
#

In my experience the first startup after changing things can take a while before seeing any activity, how long have you waited?

feral ferry
#

That's not the problem

#

If I change ANYTHING in BIOS, it's not going to post until I cut off power

fringe salmon
#

latest bios version?

feral ferry
#

Yeah

ornate cedar
#

Are you booting into a bootable device?

#

not the ethernet or something like that

feral ferry
#

Default is my SSD

trim rock
#

Nice defective motherboard

ornate cedar
#

Is it EFI or bios?

fringe salmon
#

maybe you're unlucky and your silicon barely works on default

feral ferry
#

ASUS weird thing

#

With animations and shit

#

I am guessing it's UEFI

#

Did the OC work?

#

It's clocking at just shy of 3200

fringe salmon
#

yes thats 3200

ornate cedar
#

What if you underclock it as an sanity check. It would be more stable(theoretical) and if stability is the issue souldnot cause unbootable borked

feral ferry
#

Can you tell me why last time when I wanted to enable virtualization for VMware, I went into the BIOS, enabled the AMD equivalent of virtualization, saved the settings and I got no post again?

#

Literally no post, the front power key wouldn't turn off the rig

#

I had to reach behind the case to just turn off the PSU

ornate cedar
#

No text on monitor yelling at you?

trim rock
#

Perhaps it's a known defect and you just have to update UEFI

feral ferry
#

Nope monitor was getting no input

#

Went into sleep mode

#

I was blaming Samsung a shit ton

#

But it's the motherboard of all things

#

ASUS TUF B450M-PLUS GAMING btw

ornate cedar
#

UEFI is great. Epecially the multiboot ability

feral ferry
#

Wait what the fuck

#

I have this shit on in BIOS

fringe salmon
#

so it did work

feral ferry
#

The OC did for some reason, disregarding the no post thing

#

But I also double checked if virtualization was on

#

It was enabled

#

It's disabled here

#

Might just end up getting a B550 motherboard not from ASUS

#

Anything ASUS I have doesn't work

#

Neither their routers, nor their motherboards

ornate cedar
#

My MSI is working comfy

feral ferry
#

Honestly I never liked ASUS shit

#

I regard them as a budget brand

orchid prism
#

They're quite solid though.

feral ferry
#

My gigabyte served better than this, could just go with the B550 Aorus Pro

fringe salmon
#

only trash brand is asrock imo

orchid prism
#

HOW DARE

fringe salmon
#

others have good/bad products

ornate cedar
#

Asus are fine, in terms of offering

orchid prism
#

Well actually they did cheap out on a few boards 😛

#

But my ASRock ITX boards have been solid af.

feral ferry
#

Doesn't ASRock offer the Taichi?

orchid prism
#

Yep

feral ferry
#

Which is quite good?

#

Or was at least

fringe salmon
#

and are also the only current brand that blacklists reviewers bc of non-positive reviews etc. afaik

ornate cedar
#

Which company do you mean?

fringe salmon
#

asrock

tough jay
#

Just judging from the hardware Asrock has it's strong and weak lineups as do all.
I personally don't know who is best for motherboards. I tend to mostly lean towards MSI and Gigabyte.

ornate cedar
#

Did i good by buying MSI?

tough jay
#

I really depends on the motherboard itself.

feral ferry
fringe salmon
#

idk probably fine

#

you have a 3600 not a 3950 so wont matter anyway for almost anything

ornate cedar
#

My boomer brain just went with the colour looking nice : I want this one and has what I need. B450M MORTAR TITANIUM

#

Now my monitor is obscuring the viewport lol

#

and has no lighting so its dark in there anyway

feral ferry
#

Right we are clogging up the game chat with tech, sorry for that one lads

ornate cedar
#

In minecraft which mobspawner xp farm do you like the most?

fading spade
#

20 kills
80 shots

#

I like even numbers

ornate cedar
#

25% accuracy bs. soldier doesnt hit they hit by volume

fading spade
#

:')

#

I also took a few shots with a sten

#

cause ive never seen that gun in the game before

ornate cedar
#

sten is one piece of shit gun but it was cheap, could make like 5 an hour and maintainance is like a doorframe spring

#

Wasnt it like 5 parts?

#

They are like 11 dollars to make

#

while the equevelant thomsons were 70-200

#

so pretty clear why they are so populair

fading spade
#

I really want a thompson

#

the ones with the drum mag and

#

and the hand rail built out of wood at the front

ornate cedar
#

Those drum mags needed really good engineering to not jam every fith shot. But they look really cool

#

Rather have boxmags

#

Kriss vector is also one meme machine thb

fading spade
#

:PP

#

thats a neat gun

#

but its basically a pistol

#

BTW, is the only way to get the PSTI shaders through patreon?

proper cargo
#

whoo. i struck gold ere in NMS. encountered a storm planet on my second jump. whenever theres a storm, some rocks light up. appearently they are very valuable.

fading spade
#

Im getting 70-90FPS with SEUS Renewed shaders

#

proper cargo
#

@orchid prism what are the bigger grocery stores in daneland?

orchid prism
#

Hmm... bit of a multiple choice answer really.

proper cargo
#

well, just for general groceries. like aldi is for germany for example

orchid prism
#

We have the Walmart style ones like Bilka. Føtex is kind of an every day slimmed down version of that.

Then we have... Netto, Aldi, Lidl, Fakta, Super Brugsen (COOP) and Rema 1000

#

Off the top of my head.

#

Some more bargain minded than others.

proper cargo
#

interesting. we got aldi, lidl and coop as well

#

however, they are really known as the second store you would visit 😛

#

the dutch market is really suffocating. since we dutch are so cheap, we literally fight over cents on bargains. Albert Heijn and Jumbo are the 2 biggest competitors here.

#

everyone else, like the french SPAR, which is really big in france, is seriously just your local small time grocery store cause they cant compete.

orchid prism
#

Oh we have Spar as well. 😄

proper cargo
#

i also like spar from time to time. especially now during corona cause nobody goes to spar XD

orchid prism
#

And yeah - They are ... I forgot the business method (I have the book. Am embarrased) basically individual storeowners who decided to jump in on the Spar branding to get better deals.

#

No corporate oversight as such.

tough jay
#

Thing people often don't know is SPAR is a dutch company yet almost absent in the Netherlands

#

that's because they don't run the supermarkets themselves but basically just sell the brand to other chains

proper cargo
#

yea. recently, the SPAR is now opening stores at gas stations.

#

working together with ESSO

tough jay
#

not franchising per se as they excert a lot less control than the typical franchise company. They don't supply the supermarkets themselves.

proper cargo
#

Spar Express they call it. just opening small grocery stores in Texaco and ESSO gas stations.

tough jay
#

Basically spar stores in different countries do not have to be linked much, they mostly just share branding.

proper cargo
#

so, only the spar name?

tough jay
#

the name, the logo mostly, they do offer other services I think but those two are a big thing for them.

#

and they control their own branded products

frosty dew
#

we used to have a bunch of spar's around, i think it was mostly these little family run local grocery stores that tried competing in someway with the major chains like edeka, rewe, and aldi around here...
but i also noticed that alot of "express spars" popped up with certain gas stations around. but also mini rewe's

#

@fading spade Mojang are literally just making mods native.

#

They have done since MS took over really.

#

Bee's have been a thing since ealry mc on modded for example.

tough jay
#

Can't blame them, I think at this point pretty much every good idea in minecraft has has had a mod that implemented it.

fallow bronze
#

^^ this

bleak pike
#

I just wish they supported proper modding on bedrock

#

But $$$$$

tough jay
#

Also UWP is not made for modding.
They would probably have to rewrite the bedrock version a lot to support mods, and even then a lot of things will not be possible.
That said it will perform quite a bit better and could be made a lot more stable.

fallow bronze
#

tbf, i think a lot of these features are things i havent seen in mods

bleak pike
#

Well no.

#

UWP can be modded.

feral ferry
#

I don't know what features you are exactly thinking about @fallow bronze

#

But having exclusively played a crap ton of modpacks of various genres

#

Minecraft doesn't offer anything unique

#

The addition of Thaumcraft to Minecraft would already be groundbreaking

#

And that's just one mod

#

They do polish the mobs a lot more, the quality is far higher

#

But nothing truly unique

#

Mojang seriously needs to stop making content and optimize modding, cause that's what really is important lul

fading spade
#

The skulk sensors are AMAZING LIKE MY GOSH YES

small comet
#

thaumcraft is garbage convince me otherwise

feral ferry
#

It adds a ton of content

#

So no

ornate cedar
#

content != quality

small comet
#

so quantity is better than quality

feral ferry
#

The quality of Thaumcraft is also high

small comet
#

idk imo its garbage

feral ferry
#

A lot higher than your typical mod

small comet
#

it feels like it should be a gacha game

#

not an mc mod

feral ferry
#

It adds a whole another style to the gameplay, but I like it

#

Kinda hard to get into

#

Still, my favourite mod of all time is Ars Magicka 2

#

Not very active though

#

The best modding times in MC history was 1.7 - 1.8 Beta

#

So many insane mods pepesweat

#

MineColonies, Mine and Blade, Millenaire

#

They ruined Mount and Blade with the release of 1.0, never was the same again

small comet
#

have to agree beta times were way cooler

feral ferry
#

I think I started playing Minecraft in B1.5.3

#

And soon they jumped to 1.7.3

#

1.7.3 was a great patch in minecraft history

#

1.8 was arguably even better

#

After 1.8 most mods weren't updated that much

was playing Insurgency last night

single player with bots

#

one of the bots on my team was just gliding along the ground

#

no walking, just fucking gliding, no animations AT ALL

barren pewter
#

amazing

fading spade
#

yes :')

barren pewter
#

just like metro exodus on launch day

fading spade
#

oh yeh? XD

barren pewter
#

seeing bandits phase through walls like that...

fading spade
#

he didnt phase, just no walking animation LEL

barren pewter
#

oh

#

but the bugs and glitches are on par in stupidity?

fading spade
#

thats not the only bug I saw in that game

barren pewter
#

what could be worse?

fading spade
#

when you die, you spectate a player, and if that player has a scope, the position of the gun is pushed closer to you and you clip into the gun

barren pewter
#

oh

#

yikes

fading spade
#

yeh LEL

ornate cedar
#

metro exodus is really bugged tbh. had a lot of keyboard ot registering or overegistering in that game

barren pewter
#

oh

ornate cedar
#

like unable to pump the airgun cus it sees a hold event as seperate key presses or opisided

barren pewter
#

oh

#

that didn't happen with Xbox

ornate cedar
#

so flashlight charging, mask, airpump is sometimes impossible

barren pewter
#

but the controls for controller are so clunky

#

yeah

#

I couldn't charge my tikhar at all

#

the helsing was a godsend, 'splosive ammo, no pumping

ornate cedar
#

also the utilities sometimes force themselves and you cannot move anymore cus it selects the utily instead. maybe pressing escape works but sometimes shutting down and restarting worked best

#

Also dont shovel too much coal into the train or it will crash the game

#

probably publisher was pushing for a release while the devs were nowhere done

barren pewter
#

granted, most of the bugs were Ironed out a few months in

#

at least, the major ones

ornate cedar
#

Dont remember, havent played much due to corrupting save but it was the steam release so a little odd to be still bugged

#

atleast in those amount

#

still the game is good

#

i like the metro games

Text chat

ashen lark
#

When you play with random people there is no other option aomegasweats
Text chat also easier for impostors

orchid prism
#

Oh there's no built in VC? That sucks 😄

ashen lark
#

It is also a mobile game, built in VC for non private games would not be best for that 😅

orchid prism
#

Not... really?

fringe salmon
#

adding voice chat doesnt mean text chat would get removed...

#

so just an option and it would work just fine

orchid prism
#

Exactly.

#

And eject anyone using text. Sus af 😛

ashen lark
#

People using just text would be in huge disadvantage

#

As people in VC can say lot more

#

And sometimes they ignore you in text

#

And just vote you

fringe salmon
#

yes, so you make it a lobby OPTION

#

do you know what an option is

ashen lark

That would be better

fading spade
#

oh multiplayer is considered a DLC?

fringe salmon
#

how do you even know what that is about from that tiny snippet

fading spade
#

its gta v

fringe salmon
#

ok so look at the first word in that screenshot, its an update

trim rock
#

Because I once played it a bit and did some light modding so I'm familiar with the file structure

fringe salmon
#

ah

fading spade
#

lets me select it as library

#

and make it default

#

but it cant use it for some reason

trim rock
#

Usually you'll get an error message telling what's wrong

fading spade
#

when I try to view game files

trim rock
#

Well it's pretty obvious, looks like you yoinked the files right away from Steam and now it's confused

small comet
#

easy fix

#

dont use linux

fading spade
fringe salmon
#

mac master race

trim rock
#

Windows would have the same kind of problem

small comet
#

na as quintosh said mac master race

fringe salmon
#

just symlink the folders 4head

trim rock
#

Mac as well

#

Assuming you could run any games to begin with ecks dee

barren pewter
#

if you sell your car to buy a mac pro

#

you could have a decent 1080p gaming experience

trim rock
#

Anyway the proper way is to move install folder here but if you didn't then delete local data and reinstall in your new library location and if you're lucky it'll detect the existing files

fading spade
#

tells me I dont have disk space

#

what

trim rock
fading spade
#

idk

#

oh

#

guess I will only use that drive for GTAV

#

-.-

orchid prism
fading spade
#

Well, I guess thats ok

#

the other games are small enough to redownload

#

GTAV is 90GB
fuck redownloading that shit

#

is steam.dll a proton thing?

trim rock
#

Valve only knows why that dll is always dumped into libraries

fading spade
#

have to download 500MB of shit for GTAV to run

#

I already have the game in the folder where it downloading to

trim rock
#

You don't.. or you close steam and move over the relevant manifest file as well

fading spade
#

manifest file?

trim rock
#

appmanifest_<appid>.acf in the SteamApps dir

fading spade
#

oh

#

what I do with that?

trim rock
#

"and move over the relevant manifest file as well"

fading spade
#

over to the game folder?>

trim rock
#

mv <oldlibrary>/appmanifest_whatever.acf <newlibrary>

#

side note. might be worth checking your own written autoexec config to see you yourself actually had limited csgo's fps to a number lower than 144.

fringe salmon
#

rip at least you noticed it

fading spade
#

wat

frosty dew
#

also wow. my gpu really is overwhelmed with the work

#

like stuff is laggy when i close any game

#

i seriously need a new gpu

#

but the whole current situation is so fucking frustrarting

#

cant they just be done with release?

#

so i dont have to most likely regret buying any gpu available rn due to expanded versions coming out by the end of the year?

#

fuck the companies and their stupid rivalries and all

fringe salmon
#

it will cost more so it won't be buyers remorse if you just decide to get a 10gb version

#

do you truly want less rivalry though? then we'd just have higher prices than we had with the 20 series gloryMonkaS

frosty dew
#

... muttering 'course not... just cant stand this whole, "let's hold back to see what the other releases"

as if that shit changes anything about the stuff you actually have ready at the hand right now!

fringe salmon
#

well, it does slightly change it, before hard release you can still lower prices for example, you can't really lower prices a week after release

#

well you could, but everyone would grab a pitchfork lul

frosty dew
#

urgh, just let them have brioche

#

you say a 3080 will just have less vram than lets say a 3080ti / super?

fringe salmon
#

its literally the same with 10/20gb respectively

frosty dew
#

i mean tbf... i saw that like the render time difference between the 3080 and 3090 for some 4k clip was just under 10 seconds

#

or at least i think?

#

dont recall anymore

#

ah fuck it.

#

how long was it till amd reveal?

#

I love te night shite feature in gcam

#

oops, night shot

#

wait, night sight

#

this guy is great

frosty dew
#

... kinda dont know if it's even worth for me waiting, considering i kind of wanna go team green...

fringe salmon
#

its not like it will be a bad purchase (if you even get one before then lul)

#

I just assume you won't be upgrading next year again so I personally would just wait to see what the best option is

frosty dew
#

btw is it normal that the founders edition is cheaper than any of the 3rd party cards?

orchid prism
#

Yep.

frosty dew
#

also interesting... the place i'd wanted to order for a 3080 doesnt even have them listed for purchase option...

orchid prism
#

Because they have no idea when they get stock.

#

My order in the +900 queue isn't confirmed either. They just took my money for the time being.

frosty dew
#

urgh this sucks

#

and i know i cant change anything

#

and it makes it worse

#

stupid pandemic. nobody wanted you.

#

also why are like, almost all of the third party cards easily +400 in money?

fringe salmon
#

400 seems a bit much, are you looking at 3090 or 3080 cards

frosty dew
#

3080

#

but nevermind.

#

stupid page had as default sort

#

i dont even know how to say it in english

#

"verfügbarkeit"

#

which also made it sort with most expensive first upon same ferfügbarkeit

#

i know it should have been a v, but my brain just doesnt wanna correct what my uncoordinated hands do

fringe salmon
#

availability

frosty dew
#

there, availability

#

tanks

#

but yeah, sorting lowest price to highest reveals a price difference of about 100€

fringe salmon
#

often better pcb, better cooling, better boost, binned chips etc.

frosty dew
#

also different ports from what i can tell most the times

#

(probably wont buy it, but figured why not ask opinion about this funny design)

frosty dew

someone keeps watching hermit's videos, and making screenshots from that, to post them here 🤔

fringe salmon
#

looks fine, idk if its worth the price over founders as I havent seen a review on that specific card yet

frosty dew
#

kind of looks a bit more unique i feel

#

but yeah, idk

#

especially considering there is no availability anywhere at the moment anyway

errant spoke
#

in terms of close to 3080 FE pricing most ppl prefer the ASUS tuf due to build quality and general thermal performance vs the other competitors

#

you may want to factor having 2x hdmi 2.1 ports into your decision too if you end up needing them, it is just capable of pumping out more data than DP 1.4 so it will be more flexible in the future (or now assuming you have 4k @144hz and one of the few displays that currently support HDMI 2.1)

#

but also the tuf has these stupid tire tracks on the backplate, very few of the 30 series cards meet my aesthetic bar, probably just the asus strix and FE

orchid prism
#

in terms of close to 3080 FE pricing most ppl prefer the ASUS tuf due to build quality and general thermal performance vs the other competitors
@errant spoke Also (at least here) they match TUF to FE pricing

Not really, they have all kinds of colours and if you have an enderchest with you. prettymuch you have yourstuff when you need where you need. Plus the added bonus of people not stealing yourstuff when in an enderchest

#

@fading spade what "voodoo" do you mean in that picture? the existence of shulker boxes? they around for a couple of years now... the fact xisuma can see them? that's cause he uses vanilla tweaks (fancy resource pack, could send you the page for. it's basically enhanced vanilla textures and stuff)
... other than that i dont really know what could be meant

fading spade
#

wait, thats done with RESOURCE PACK??

#

seeing their contents I mean

#

DUH, OFC I know shulker boxes xd

frosty dew
#

tbf would have been suprised if you didnt

#

gimme a sec. currently going through the vanilla tweaks stuff to make sure i was talking no bs

but i swear shishwami talked about it in one of his episodes a while ago...

fading spade

I see you watch Keralis

frosty dew

perhaps

#

also apparently the shulker preview is the only thing that is not part of the vanilla tweaks stuff
and a mod called "Shulkerbox Tooltips" apparently findable on cursed forge or something

#

(usied brackets to prevent preview thingy)

#

i think it's called embedding actually.

fading spade
#

ooo

frosty dew
#

yeah just checked, i dont have it

#

mostly cause i dont really mod, and if i do it's via Fabric.

#

cause of replay mod. lol.

fading spade
#

wait, hermitcraft is vanilla with datapacks

#

unless you can use forge on your own without the server running it too

frosty dew
#

uh, yes?

fading spade
#

oh

#

you can tell I dont mod :')

frosty dew
#

only if you play mods that like add blocks or change world stuff

fading spade
#

ohh ok

frosty dew
#

then it needs to be server side

fading spade
#

yeh

frosty dew
#

but for stuff like minimaps or other clientside stuff that doesnt affect others, only you need it

#

i once was on a server that forbid any clientside mods...

#

not like they could really check that

#

still got banned for talking about a mod.
that wasnt even updated for over a year anymore

#

bunch of hypocrites

fading spade
#

O.o

#

talking about a mod -.- wtf

frosty dew
#

i was quite amused when i saw they closed down like 3 years later due to lack of players

fading spade
#

no surprise

frosty dew
#

i mean tbf it was actually a nice server, but the way they act was... urgh.

fading spade
#

ive seen plugin server shut down for lack of players, I cant imagine how likely that is for a server tha bans players for MENTIONING mods

frosty dew

oh well ¯_(ツ)_/¯

yes so they didnt reduce prices further

is that like BF4 but better graphic?

oh

bf5 is ww2

#

and bf1 wwi

#

hmm ok

#

may stick to bf4 then :')

novel umbra
#

they all use fully auto guns either way

even if it makes no sense historically

#

iirc BFV had that weird damage falloff calculation

i'd have loved the two games, if it werent so much focus on automatic guns...

i loved running around with the garand in bad company 2, lol

hi, is there a list of games compatible with analog keyboards?

orchid prism
#

User created one.

#

Basically - If you game supports you using the mouse and a controller at the same time, you're golden.

fringe salmon
quiet quiver
#

thanks a lot 🙂

quiet quiver
#

in the worst case, i can turn the wooting keyboard as a "normal keyboard" for EVERY game?

fringe salmon
#

yes

quiet quiver
#

will i be able to change the actuation point in the "normal keyabord mode"?

fringe salmon
#

yes

quiet quiver
#

in "normal mode", do i have to unplug the xbox controler?

fringe salmon
#

you mean your own xbox controller?

#

no that doesnt matter

quiet quiver
#

yes, i have a xbox controler always plugged to my pc.

#

k

#

why logitech &co aren t making analog keyboards???

#

if there is no drawback, they should have jump into this kind of keyboards.

fringe salmon
#

one drawback is having to invest into R&D, software etc. instead of just using what you have to make more

quiet quiver
#

sure

#

sorry to ask again ( i m new with analogue keyboards), but if i turn the normal mode, the wooting will have NO difference ( no need to tweak anything) with a standard keyboard?

fringe salmon
#

yup

quiet quiver
#

i m gonna take a wooting one he in ansi, and i live in france, so it will be hard to sell it if i m disapointed

#

ok thx, sorry for asking, and asking again.
Thx for your patience

fringe salmon

there is no wooting one HE

#

screen tearing is horrific ;-;

fringe salmon
#

then turn on v sync

Screen tearing personally never bothered me too much, it's something I can easily filter out in my mind.

fringe salmon
#

g sync monitor ftw rooDab

tough jay
#

Adaptive sync does make things better, yes but generally I have not been bothered with it.

#

even when I was just running 75hz

slim token
#

yes i like g sync

#

is it true it increases input lag tho?!?

fringe salmon
#

not really, that's the issue with v synch

#

it's the main reason why g sync exists, so you get v sync like experience without the xtreme input lag

slim token
#

ah ok

tough jay
#

Mostly because running a locked framerate is generally not the most efficient way to do things.

unique bane
#

gsync increases input delay when it's out of the gsync range as it turns into vsync

tough jay
#

framerate limiters are a solution here

fading spade
#

I found settings file in documents folder

slim token
#

i stayed capped at 140

#

fringe salmon
#

are you sure it turns it into v sync? wouldnt that mean I should see 100fps as max in my games gloryT never really looked into edgecases where it's not consistently above or below

unique bane
#

yeah Im sure

tough jay
#

either way at 155hz screen tearing is also not very noticable

fringe salmon
#

wouldn't it turn it into fast-sync if I have that selected int he control panel?

unique bane
#

thats where my knowledge ends, afaik with syncing you can't see sub-frames so I'm not really into those 😄

server browser in the browser worked pretty well imo

It wasn't bad as an OPTION.

It broke for me half the time 😄

#

Also much harder to emulate down the line.

trim rock
#

Eh, it reminded me of the good old days of connecting directly through Steam or Xfire to my fav servers

tough jay

I would say may even be easier, because of web standards the frontend is pretty much open

barren pewter

#

too high? doubt it..got intense shaders hmm

fringe salmon
#

nope

#

again, doesnt matter

#

your cpu/gpu usage matters only if you are doing something else that also uses it

barren pewter
#

most shaders are cpu anyway

fading spade
fringe salmon
#

what

#

yes, normal

fading spade
#

100% usage???

fringe salmon
#

yes

fading spade
#

O.o

#

oh

fringe salmon
#

why would you not use what you have????

fading spade
#

true...

#

I assume the PC cools it properly, there is always air flow from the front to the back of the case

#

with the fans

fringe salmon
#

it only matters if you do multiple things that use the same, but if you just game it doesn't matter if the cpu/gpu is at 0 or 100% usage

#

you probably dont want cpu at 100% all the time bc it could make things laggy if you alt tab etc. but that rarely happens anyway

#

but unless you have any big issues, no point in looking at % usage bc that doesnt tell you anything

fading spade
#

right.. ok

trim rock
#

But unless you have a high refresh rate monitor or really need the lowest latency it's just generating extra heat for no reason

fringe salmon
#

doubt that happens with a 1660 in any ammount where really call it "extra" heat

orchid prism
#

Indeed...

#

The coolers are so tiny 😄

#

barren pewter
#

#

makes sense

barren pewter
#

it's not a bad thing per say

orchid prism
#

My 1660TI has a single fan.

#

Never had issues 😄

barren pewter
#

a friend had a 1660 variant asus pheonix that hit high 80's in an admittedly shit case, while gaming

#

that's what usually happens

#

and I tried a dual fan 1050ti in the case and it never broke above 75 degrees

fringe salmon
#

doesnt meant too much, dual fan can still be worse, it's also a lower card so it generates less heat to begin with etc.

barren pewter
#

true

#

the heatsink on the 1660 super was super short

#

and the fan was loud as hell

orchid prism
#

ASUS's Phoenix cards are basically an intel heatsink on top of the core 😄

My 1660TI included.

WD2's only good thing for a few hours was just killing pedestrians by remotely driving a forklift

#

Or just exploding sewers

#

Mission design was repetitive

#

Got boring but I managed to finish it so eh

WD2's main issue was... an incoherent story and theme.

#

It was too busy trying to mix WD with ... GTA? to make sense.

Dunno I didn't like the mission design

#

Was there a mission where you didn't have to go to the quest marker and kill people on the way in?

No need to kill people 😄

#

it was one guy who always tried to avoid killing people and based on your actions

#

there were consiqences

#

wd2 you just kill everyone and everything

#

like it means nothing
