Is there a difference between the Wooting 2 HE and the 60% besides the size?

digital cliff
#

no

fair gull
#

i mean there is some very technical differences but if you just wanna use the product as is then no

severe phoenix
fair gull
#

i dont think just because its patented they will use the patent

severe phoenix
#

Quinten Tarintino is going to receive a review unit

fair gull
thick elk
#

A patent doesn't mean it will be used, but there are definitely costs involved getting that far, so it does indicate at least some serious effort in that regard.
Even if it ultimately ends up going nowhere.

ashen spindle
#

Could be something for Accessibility similar to what Microsoft does with their accessibility controller thing

thick elk
#

Patent explicitily mentions vr / ar so at that point it was not for accesibility.

#

That being said foot controllers would be a very good accessibility thing, people losing a hand happens often enough.

Those are so dated and amazing.

thick elk
#

Back in the days the average user needed to port-forward.
Now I still do but because of my own specific needs.

you asked this already

So close pepecry @digital cliff

The issue turned out to NOT be a bad implementation of the DirectX9.0c specification by AMD (as I had suspected for well over 10 years) but rather a LENIENT implementation on nVidia's part
always fun when a lot of things turn out to not be broken on amd but rather nvidia not folowing spec dogekek

vagrant pagoda
#

To be fair, which one you think is more common

ashen spindle
#

hardware spec wise certainly not that amd is using broken/non spec conforming things

#

especially opengl had a lot of things that weren't great on amd because nvidia had workarounds that devs got used to

#

but no I can't find something for that atm

pale sigil
#

Linus got it lol

#

Oh wait that was Samsung

reef patrol
#

I think he said it has a potential power draw of 1300W from the panel alone.

#

yoooo hello everyone so I just got my wooting 60he and I decided to mod it and it was the very first time that I have done done this and overall it is amazing and turned out great but I ran into a couple of problems and I was wondering if anyone could help me with them

#

hello, someone has a list about a wooting vs apex pro?

thorny mirage
smoky frigate
#

I don't know about the mini tho

rotund crypt
#

if you want the least input latency possible, go with the wooting

if you dont need that, its preference

Hey, when I play video games, my crouch is the Crtl button I was playing the game today and trying to crouch, but it was not working. Some reason when I hit the FN button and the Crtl button at the same time it crouches but when I hit the Crtl button by it’s itself it does not work anyone know how to fix this or what the problem is I try to take the switch out. It does not work. Still does the same thing

ashen spindle
#

and dont post the same thing in multiple channels

#

Sorry

anyone know if the xg25aqm is a good competitive monitor

inland lion
#

Is there any difference between using the usb 3.1 and 3.2 usb ports?

severe phoenix
halcyon moss
#

A space heater typically draws that much

#

Poor us power circuits, 1300w is a lot for those :p

severe phoenix
#

lol

#

I think it's a lot for any power circuits - TV wise

#

A typical OLED would use less than 100

#

lol

reef patrol
#

Mhmm. Any other house and they would be struggling to keep it running dogekek

severe phoenix
#

So if running a TV for 2 hours a day for a year is supposed to be like 47$ = according to energy star

#

I can't even imagine the electric bill

halcyon moss
#

Meh. I have a coffee maker, water kettle (a strong one 2000w) on the same Socket.

severe phoenix
#

This thing may be a deal at 13,000$, but the electric bill? Whoo boy

#

Probably like 100$/mo just by itself

#

Ok actually so at 2 hours per day, it'd only be 15$/mo in my state.

#

But still, expensive compared to an oled which is like 13$ a year at 2 hours per day

final flame
#

I wonder how much difference in heat though compared to ips

rustic flame
#

i almost bought that samsung g9 49 inch oled monitor i dont even wanna think about how much that would've costed for my power bill LMAO

final flame
#

do they produce more heat though, that's the question

#

well that's a crt though lol
a better comparison would be ips or miniled

halcyon moss
#

I'm so glad crts are gone. Big, heavy, power hungry, squeaky noise, flickering image

final flame
#

playing older games feels so much better on them for example

#

anime is also quite nice to watch on them

reef patrol
#

Just get a good upscaler

final flame
#

crts have a kind of natural bloom you don't get on any other display

#

I wish modern crts were created, would be nice to have something that is higher res

#

crts are kinda like the tube amps of audio

#

compared to solid state amps which are modern displays

severe phoenix
#

Eh Tube Amps are actually surpassed unlike CRT

#

Lol those are stupidly expensive though

final flame
#

"just"

reef patrol
#

Getting a GOOD CRT with modern inputs is not necessarily cheap either.

severe phoenix
#

But more versatile

#

:p

final flame
#

you still need a good display to pair with it

#

ideally oled

severe phoenix
#

Should be like 50-100$ tops

It's always fun to be confirmed in your suspicions that brands share marketing stats.

Cause there ain't no way that TCL ads suddenly appear organically after I watch Linus 115" TV video, literally the only time I've ever heard of TCL. dogekek

#

like the 60percent layout being sudo standard so replacing the case is no issue while fullsize third party cases are not a thing

#

that kind of differences

bold iris

anyone know good wooting settings for valorant?

lofty pivot
bold iris
bold iris
#

alr and should the actuation point be low on everything except shift and windows

lofty pivot
#

well outside of wasd keys it's up to you mostly. I do 0.3 wasd and 0.5 to 1 on all my other keys (except windows is 4 lol), but how low you want to go on wasd in particular is up to you

bold iris
#

ok

lofty pivot
#

and left shift you turn off rapid trigger mostly cause it accidentally triggers when you shift walk sometimes, so better to have it off there

bold iris
#

ok thanks

#

does it automatically activate my current profile even when i close the app or do i need to have it running?

what is that

reef patrol
iron wave
#

So what do you guys think about RDMA?

ashen spindle
#

server stuff that I wont ever interact with and potentially begging for security issues

iron wave
#

It could end up in consumer stuff. There's already PCI-e over USB with Thunderbolt, so it's not exactly far off.

ashen spindle
#

pcie over usb is just making more external IO possible, idk what you would even use rdma in consumer for

iron wave
#

Faster and lower latency data transactions.

#

Might not be useful for stuff like transferring large files, but it could definitely allow for some neat things.

ashen spindle
#

like what

#

I just dont see the usecase

viscid willow
#

yes we definitely need even faster file transfers for our ambiguous 2TB mp4 files

ashen spindle
#

consumer isnt going to have massive rack setups that need infiniband to transfer data or anything like that, not even thinking about the cost to add the nics and all for that

iron wave
#

Lower latency access to stuff could be useful for video editing directly off of your phone. This stuff could also be nice for people that need more threads, add a PCI-e card with a CPU on it for an additional NUMA node.

ashen spindle
#

more threads is easily solved by just having more cores in basic cpus over the next generations instead of expensive solutions like that

iron wave
#

Heck you could just dock your phone into something like that and pool the resources.

#

Yeah but that requires replacing hardware.

ashen spindle
#

which is a lot cheaper than getting hardware that would support this properly

#

also removes any issues coming from the cpu not being directly next to the cpu slots which is not making latency and speed better

iron wave
#

The price should be comparable, if not cheaper because it wouldn't need as much PCB and far fewer peripherals.

ashen spindle
#

we are getting CXL in servers and at some point maybe in consumer which would be able to do all that

#

but I just dont see it doing anything for consumer in this decade

iron wave
#

No not soon, but it could still be a lot of fun.

ashen spindle
#

maybe? I just really doubt by the time we get it in consumer you'd use it for that when it's so much simpler to just get the 64core consumer cpu option

yo real quick how do i get my wooting 60he to update mode?

Huh.

World of Warcraft = MMO

iron wave
#

I've only played a couple of those.

nah. warcraft 3 came out first then there was WoW

#

Warcraft was a RTS, like red alert

I haven't played any of those. :V

This one you need to run as admin for it to work in the first place. concern

@vivid vine Are you familiar w/ polling rates with mice?

vivid vine
#

Not to much, havent really even bothered upgrading from the GPX

lone mantle
#

this gif again πŸ™‚

inland lion
#

awh rip
Got the newer finalmouse w/ 4k. Super laggy though :.

vivid vine
#

Wondering if thats why GPX 2 is just 2k

inland lion
#

Kind of sucks lol :/

#

4000 feels pretty nice on 360

ashen spindle
#

bad drivers, overloaded usb hubs, not updating windows to have fixes for high polling devices, running the cpu at max because the game is run at low resolution/details etc.

inland lion
#

I play my games at 1720x1080

ashen spindle
#

if you run it completely cpu bound and your cpu is running at high usage and then you put high polling on it that can stutter

#

^

inland lion
#

I see, I see.

ashen spindle
#

also the pcie usb hub might have issues itself

#

would always want that on a hub thats directly connected to the cpu imo

inland lion
ashen spindle
#

the % doesnt say anything, depends on how the game polls it and how much the thread for it is used

#

if you have 2 cores at 100% load on a 4 core cpu it shows 50% too but it's going to bottleneck hard

inland lion
#

haha, thats just because usb-c is expensive for manufactures.

#

They aren't too bad otherwise

ashen spindle
#

usbc is expensive because it makes it cost a dollar or two instead of a few cents for a port, that's not causing most of that price

#

that adds up to cost in millions of units, not for one single port

Just took apart my Logitech Superlight to clean out the scroll wheel. And holy mother of anti-consumer repair is it a fucking terrible design.

#

Six screws under the mouse to get it open. Six. Where are they? Under the teflon esque tape that is damaged when you try and peel it off of course. OF COURSE.

Could they have left holes for the screws with zero performance loss? Yes.

Another 12? screws later and I get to the battery. Which is taped onto another two fucking screws. Does it need to be? FUCK NO. There's ample room inside, and I could literally tape it back on between screws.

#

I don't ever want to hear anyone complain about the 2HE disassembly. πŸ˜„

I am genuinely dumbfounded. It took me seconds to hollow out the skates for the screws.

#

Logitech: please cleen scroll wheel that we designed like cave men
Also Logitech: But don't take it apart, which you'll need to do to actually do what we're asking

frozen ingot
#

most mice are ass when it comes to user servicability

#

that you can't even access the casing screws for disassembly without destroying and replacing the skidpads on most modern gaming mice is just spiteful towards the customer

reef patrol
#

Yeah...

#

Putting the battery ON screws also not very cool.

#

And the ribbon cable didn't have a "tap" you could hold onto either. Which is again just spite.

frozen ingot
#

yeah getting that cursed ribbon connector back in place is the worst part for me

#

my fat sausage fingers and so-so precision skills makes anything electronic made after the 1980s a pain to deal with havo

reef patrol

thankfully there's tools to get around most shortcomings like that, though the actual smt parts used in modern tech are so miniscule I don't even bother attempting any board/circuit repairs

#

so

#

would there be a point

in me

#

buying both a 60HE and a 60HE+

digital cliff
#

no

lost wagon
#

huh

#

so ig nah

#

so if i am to understand

#

100% is not good

cause it is unmoddable

i cant

#

its

#

a force

#

of habit'

lost wagon
#

:(

#

yeah nah the real reason for it

#

is cause im playin val rn

#

so i type a ;ine and look back

digital cliff
#

if you want to mod then yes get 60HE

lost wagon
#

today

#

i was changing my brightness

#

i also have an overlock key

fn+1 = F1 and so on

lost wagon
#

im using a latop rn

#

but it has all the function keys

#

ye it does

#

i do want to mod it cause no offense the base wooting keeb sounds kinda bad

#

so ill buy the 60% and mod it later

#

one very quick question about the software

#

if i buy an external numpad

#

can the software still pick it up as part of the keyboard so i can use it for macros?

digital cliff
#

wootility doesn't do macros, but wootomation, sure

lost wagon
#

whatever one can do the stuff

digital cliff
#

wootility is the software to configure the keeb

#

wootomation is just a wooting-branded macro app

lost wagon
#

soooooo

digital cliff
#

you could just as well use autohotkey or any other I suppose though

lost wagon
#

idk what that is

#

is that a yes on the external numpad able to use macros?

#

cause i use my numpad on my left cause im lefthanded

digital cliff
#

yes you can make macros

#

either with wootomation or any other 3rd party hardware-agnostic macro app such as autohotkey

lost wagon
#

niceeeeeeeeeeeeeee

#

how complex can i tune the macros on wootomation?

#

like to the ms with razer?

#

or no?

#

i don't personally use it

#

Yeah they just have awful marketing

They say no publicity is bad publicity, but come on

slow swan
fair gull
#

depends on the usb source you attach it to. the usb standard is 5v

the main issue is an unstable voltage with many coiled cables as the wooting drains a tiny bit more amps than the usb spec provides

nothing special there

Ah it took a while for 4tb to come down, I would have gotten it when I upgraded storage but back then the price per gb gap between 2 and 4 tb was still rather large.

digital cliff
#

damn they've gotten a lot cheaper in the last year alone I feel

pale sigil
#

Yup

digital cliff
#

2TB ones went for around 200€, second hand, back when I checked

#

like for the premium shit as in the case of SN850x

thick elk
#

Oh I snagged up a secondary 2tb drive for less than € 80 a few month back, granted a cheaper one but it's not my main drive and my 500gb one could definitely use a replacement at that point.

digital cliff
#

a secondary 2tb drive I bought new for I think 115 already back then, just depends on what performance you go for

#

the cheap stuff is a lot cheaper than the premium stuff

pale sigil

I bought my 1tb for Β£99 not long ago and it was an insane bargain.

I'd like a nas just to have one but too expensive so I won't get one lol

digital cliff
#

I don't have old pcs with drives that are worthwhile

For me my server / nas basically uses my old cpu, currently running a 8700k which is overkill.

digital cliff
thick elk
#

Drives of course I buy dedicated.

fair gull
#

you always buy nas drives

umbral heron
#

tbf for €239 you could build a PC for TrueNAS out of older parts... duck_sip

fair gull
#

prob better than any nas

cursive summit
#

I doubt so, but I'll look into it

#

Yeah.. with the import tax sure, without not quite yet

fair gull
#

the main issue with prebuilt nas is they cost out the butt, never include disks inless you buy a bundle and they have 2 or 4gb ram only with a trash soc

#

old hp/dell office pc for 50bucks from ebay prob has more cpu power and ram

umbral heron
#

My Thinkcentre Tiny has 4 cores and 16GB of RAM and it was €40 so yeah

It does really depend on the use
My raspberry pi usb 2 attached hdd is faster than my internet, (my phone backs up over the internet mostly) and my camera's wifi upload combined

If you are purely using it for backup, you really don't need much power

And I'd prefer to save $100 or 2 over 5 years + another few hundred up front

well last nas i built had 20disks in it at some point

what would you people recommend L45 or 60s? I still don't have a good overview

astral haven
#

Personal preference

umbral heron
#

Check out #archived_the_lekker_switch backlog
Basically L60 is more or less MX Red, you can compare force chart V sent you vs other switches you can get on rtings for example

#

Can I use the Lekker Switch on the older Wooting Two Keyboard?

reef patrol
#

No.

#

Different technology

ornate haven
#

So how do I get new switches for the Wooting two keyboard?

reef patrol

If it's one one or two, you can email us and ask.

Anything more and it's time to find a new keyboard

ornate haven
#

I am getting a lot of double taps now. Is there a way to fix that within the software? Example - EExxaammppllee

#

Sorry, not a guru on the keyboard.

digital cliff
#

which settings are you getting the issues on?

#

or just always?

#

namely actuation and RT settings

ornate haven
#

Which mode?

#

I am on the digital profilee

digital cliff
#

usually you can adjust actuation and RT settings to be more relaxed if you have issues, also can't hurt to dust it off on account of the older flaretech switches being optical and the sensors being susceptible to dust and stuff

#

canned air on the pcb with the offending switches pulled out should probably do the trick

ornate haven
#

I fully cleaned up the keyboard this last weekend.

rose tendon
#

Yo can y’all tell me where I can check my shipping info?

digital cliff
#

and if that fails, just adjusting the actuation and RT settings a little to see if you can't find a sweet spot

I'm certain that I'm the first person who has used a drywall anchor on a monitor arm to hold the monitor down rather than up lol

The monitor keeps angling back up when I don't want it to for some reason, and that's not gonna happen any more lel

Isn't it just a matter of tighting a screw, like this one?

Either way my monitor arm is cursed in a different way.
It's arms are elongated as the tripple monitor arm really doesn't fit 3x 27inch even if it says it does.
Had to drill out a screw even as it really did not want to come lose

Ah, it's hard to judge from the picture, doesn't seem like the best construction, but hey if your solution works it works

astral haven
#

yea

#

its an awful diy solution

#

using an angled wall mount that was designed to be as cheap as possible

thick elk
#

Not a fan of wall mounts myself, used them in the past, problem is if you want to change anything on your setup you end up with extra holes.

astral haven
#

no like

#

i have a normal monitor arm

thick elk
#

Ah

#

I seem to have a memory of a fly as I could cleary see it not being wall mounted on the picture you send

astral haven
#

because my monitor arm tilts 15 degrees up and 5 degrees down, and i wanted it to tilt as far down as possible

thick elk
#

Wouldn't it make more sense to turn it 180 degrees? of course it's wait will rest on the screwe but that should be fine?

astral haven
#

the mount is symmetrical

#

tilting down has the screw in that position

#

when you tilt up, the screw goes up

#

its a pretty strange design

thick elk
#

Just checked my single monitor one, there the tilt is similar move forward tilt down move backward tilt up.
Biggest difference it seems is that it uses tooth lock washers and a small screw on both sides to lock itself

#

Maybe going that route would be possible, replacing what's in there with something that grips stronger

astral haven
#

it has a second screw on the other side, however it too is also not locking

#

I was just looking down the aisle at home depot and this was the first set of things that seemed like it would work, I might have tried locking washers if i saw them but too late now

thick elk
#

Just for reference my cheap desk mount

#

The single monitor one

astral haven
#

neat
yea i dont think that would hold my monitor, i have a 32 inch super curved dood that is also extremely deep

thick elk
#

The scratches were from when it tried to hold my old 24inch tv which is probably at least as heavy The screws held fine, just the monitor arm itself was flexing under the weight.

astral haven
#

oh geez

#

i mean more that it would work itself loose over time if i moved it up and down

#

I swing my monitor arm around and tilt it down for use in bed
then i swing it back over my desk to work

thick elk
#

Ah yea then you don't want something like that.

astral haven
#
#

Finally!

#

an actual reason to use the high megapixel sensors

pale sigil

My adjustable desks anti collision is kinda shit sometimes tbh

dont think of it as anti collision, think of it as minimizing damage from a collision

Friend is looking for a 16” laptop for uni stuff / solid works for arround 1500$

Any recommendations?

stone thicket

i have my mac pro m2 max 32 ram, so good for work

steep creek
#

I wouldn’t try running solidworks on a mac tbh

shadow minnow
stone thicket
#

Oh, my bad, didn't see that part, somehow

umbral heron
#

For CAD/Solidworks usually you'd want something with chonky CPU and quite a lot of RAM

steep creek
#

Yeah my friends in mech eng have gaming laptops runs well for their tasks

shadow minnow
#

Ah yes I am sure this is not chatgpt written

umbral heron
#

Something with 8-core Ryzen and 16/32GB of RAM would do I guess
And I dunno if they (SolidWorks) fixed their issues with RTX 40-series

ashen spindle
#

if its not for right now wait for CES on jan7 or so if they announce something new and good

raw zephyr
shadow minnow
#

Indeed sadly they don’t like the design rip

raw zephyr
umbral heron

raw zephyr

umbral heron
#

Ah, ok then dogekek
At first glance most of people here sell to who whole EU anyways

shadow minnow
#

I am thinking if the newest gen 7840hs or such woudlnt be better for solidworks than 5900hx tbh

#

But painful part is them wanting a sleek design

halcyon moss

It depends on your keyboard layout, shift+2 or altgr+2 is common

Oh, AltGr+2 does Β² in my case, quite useful!

umbral heron
midnight flume

I just restored my ketboard, but i still cant press shift 2 to get @

i fixed it, thanks for the help @@@@@@@@@@@

raw zephyr
umbral heron
#

Danish layout uses AltGr+2 for @, interesting

raw zephyr
#

czech programmers is a decent layout on windows, but nothing beats cz-qwertz on unix

ashen spindle
#

am I blind or is that just the default qwert layout

raw zephyr
#

yeah but you are still able to type special symbols with right alt

umbral heron
#

AltGr+4 = č? Why not AltGr+c?

ashen spindle
#

ohh that part

#

just looked at base layout and was confused how it was different haha

raw zephyr
#

i wish i could just write professional emails without those symbols, but then you look like an uneducated twat

#

so much extra hassle

umbral heron
#

Yeah, gotta use those diacritics Sadge

ashen spindle
#

that seems like the perfect task for AI "stupidify this text for pretentious executives"

misty saffron
#

meanwhile chad russians just don't use Ρ‘

raw zephyr
#

i think even simple autocorrect has those diacritics figured out

misty saffron
#

i'm pretty sure it was the inconvenience to type it on a keyboard that led to the letter officially being optional

raw zephyr
#

actually i was looking for different keyboard layouts comparison for different languages and czech landed at the top for qwerty i believe

#

but i was not able to find those comparisons, it's just something that i remember from years ago

raw zephyr
#

skypad? yeah those new designs are not for me.

ashen spindle
#

nah by then we hopefully have something that replaces current oled production

digital cliff
#

unlucky

#

means it's gonna be expensive again

ashen spindle
#

ehh doesn't have to be

digital cliff
#

no but it will, tech lately has just gone up +100-200€ every generation

#

and that's like, not even inflation alone obviously

astral haven
#

not really no

ashen spindle
#

qd oled has been cheaper than almost anyone expected for first generation

#

like yeah its not cheap

#

but for first gen people were expecting like 2x or something

astral haven
#

and its still big time profit, they could go cheaper if there was any competition

ashen spindle
#

until we need gpu wafers in monitors they wont follow the gpu pricing trend dogekek

astral haven
#

you say that but there are processors in monitors

#

and modern ones are getting lorge

ashen spindle
#

I meant for the screen itself πŸ˜› I dont see prcessing asics needing bleeding edge nodes

astral haven
#

they arent using bleeding edge nodes

#

but even leading edge nodes (1 gen prior to bleeding) which is what they use are getting insanely expensive

#

mediatek's are on n7 afaik

#

but yea the massive reductions coming in layer counts are going to make for some very nice savings by the manufacturers

#

probably wont pass it on, but we will be getting nicer monitors than ever before for similar prices

ashen spindle
#

also dont think just moving on to qned or whatever it will be will require a better processor, so if not chasing higher frames/pixelcounts that still isn't causing increased prices

astral haven
#

gotta keep in mind that we are getting better monitors on all fronts, not just contrast, but also resolution and refresh basically every time

ashen spindle
#

can we just skip 2024 after zen5 launched, I'll get that then wait sleep till end of 25 dogekek

#

id set my cryosleep pod to wake me up when deckard releases, but who knows if thats even happening

ashen spindle
#

maybe they are ready and want to not launch during meta but during apples event this time

astral haven
#

yea

ashen spindle
#

absolutely 0 indication but I need some copium

astral haven
#

ive got so much copium that im considering a vision pro

crisp granite
astral haven
#

and i want standalone

#

but with a good screen too

ashen spindle
#

can get a vision outside us so xD

crisp granite
#

I don't want to get a PS5, PSVR2, more copies of games and play tethered

astral haven
#

thats quitter talk
but also get rekt we get all the fun stuff first

crisp granite
#

the only PCVR option for not tethered is the vive cosmos elite rn iirc

astral haven
#

yea i want a vr headset because i dont want to buy a 300 inch tv and ceiling mount it

crisp granite
#

for the money, I could buy a fresh index and several new games

astral haven
ashen spindle
#

the quest 3 is really good deal for its price

astral haven
#

its just not got the oled blacks for watching movies

ashen spindle
#

havent been able to try tracking on Beatsaber yet because its on the other pc

crisp granite
#

...um
yeah I am not bringing meta products into my home
ever

astral haven
#

🀷 better meta than ccp imo

crisp granite
#

would rather valve's hardware anyway
knowing them, they'd build steamVR especially around their hardware specifically

astral haven
#

sure but id prefer meta to htc, apple to meta, and only then valve rather than apple

ashen spindle
#

oh right one thing I much prefer on the quest over the index is the lensflare not being annoying

astral haven
#

deckard is supposed to be inside out

#

and you only need 1 lighthouse to be high up, the other one(s) can be lower

#

what would be cool is using inside out and using the same cameras to do lighthouse tracking

#

and ofc also having the lighthouse photodiodes

ashen spindle
#

I need it to not use lighthouses because I cba having to plug them in every time I want to play vr lol

astral haven
#

but what would be really cool is a system where you can have lighthouses, but you can also just turn them off if you dont need the mm precision

#

i really dont want to have to buy another set of controllers is my concern

#

and handtracking just aint it chief

ashen spindle
#

yeah handtracking needs more time

astral haven
#

for use as a monitor or tv tho? its def enough which is why im even slightly considering vision pro

iron wave
#

IT WORKS

I'll be changing this though.

astral haven
#

lol ive been using a setup like that for well over a year

iron wave
#

πŸ€”

astral haven
#

i have a 3.0x8 to 4 3.0x8 pcie switch, and i have 4 of those expansion cards hanging off

iron wave
#

Huh, sounds expensive.

#

I'm sure there's a better way of doing networking.

#

This was just a test, I don't have the USB card for this yet.

vagrant pagoda
#

Just mount your lh

astral haven
#

yea i had it so that i could do networking + 3 pcie ssds

vagrant pagoda
#

Do it once and be done

#

I have vive in one room, and index in the other. But the both work with everything

astral haven
#

mounting implies you are allowed to mount them

vagrant pagoda
#

They are on 2 3m command strips

#

I didn't want to perm mount them when I put them up

#

So I command stripped for testing

iron wave
#

Those don't work long term for the Vive base stations.

vagrant pagoda
#

And never did another

vagrant pagoda
iron wave
#

No they don't.

#

They fall off within a year.

astral haven
#

probably depends on wall material

vagrant pagoda
#

And if you clean it first

#

A dusty, greasy wall won't hold

iron wave
#

I even used alcohol to clean the surfaces and leaned on them for a few minutes each.

vagrant pagoda
#

Mine is textured concrete and works

iron wave
#

It just doesn't work.

vagrant pagoda
#

That has latex paint on it

astral haven
#

but theres no chance it would stick to my walls, especially with the vibration

vagrant pagoda
#

What size did you use?

iron wave
#

Normal and a couple of them.

vagrant pagoda
#

I used 2 large ones

iron wave
#

You're better off just using stands or bookshelves if you can't make holes.

vagrant pagoda
#

On some china corner speaker mounts

astral haven
#

did you maybe take off the stand and mount it directly @vagrant pagoda

vagrant pagoda
#

Using the 1/4 20 mount on the lighthouse

#

Direct has bad fov, room is too small

#

They are all they way at the roof at like 45* down

astral haven
#

using the bottom 1/4 20 or the back one

iron wave
#

The wireless kit is super nice though.

vagrant pagoda
#

Bottom

astral haven
#

I really doubt that command will hold up my lighthouses when it can barely even hold up regular printer paper

vagrant pagoda
#

The bracket had scres for both walls

#

I just stuck a command strip on each side

#

Oil based paint?

astral haven
#

🀷 no idea, the paint has been around longer than i have

vagrant pagoda
#

Prob oil based

astral haven
#

probably

iron wave
#

Yummy lead?

vagrant pagoda
#

Probably if it's white

#

Everything white was lead before it was titanium

astral haven
#

better to let the lead leech into my skin on the rare occasions that i touch the wall than take the paint off and breathe it all in in one go

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah if it isn't peeling, don't fuck with it

iron wave
#

Got to love 3D printing.

vagrant pagoda
#

Lead paint is actually super stable

#

So it isn't bad to have if it isn't peeling

#

It's the peeling and your kids eat it

#

That's when it's bad

vagrant pagoda
iron wave
#

Or if you want to do any home improvement stuff.

vagrant pagoda
#

Oil paint doesn't really make dust

#

It stays soft, which is why it peels so easily

iron wave
#

Apparently asbestos is still in use in some places in the US.

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah

#

It is the best at what it dose

astral haven
#

asbestos is insane

vagrant pagoda
#

Concrete is just as bad as asbestos.

astral haven
#

uh no

vagrant pagoda
#

Concrete dust is just as bad as asbestos dust

iron wave
#

The fake quarts stuff is pretty bad when people don't use PPE.

astral haven
astral haven
#

and concrete dust takes the form of particulates, however asbestos dusts take the form of strands

vagrant pagoda
#

Concrete causes silicosis

iron wave
#

Apparently some of the fun stuff about the quartz dust is it gets a lot worse when your body attempts to remove it.

#

I wonder how much silicosis would be prevented by people being safe with stuff.

astral haven
#

yea but while its bad if its microcrystals, its even worse if its inorganic polymer style strands

iron wave
#

Silicosis is really bad.

vagrant pagoda
#

Silcia also causes mesothelioma

#

It's just as bad as asbestos

astral haven
#

its similar forms of similar molecules

iron wave
#

Potentially worse from what I've heard.

astral haven
#

but asbestos has 1 major difference from other silicates

#

asbestos makes longer and thinner chains that are equally strong

iron wave
#

People know it's really bad for you?

#

Workers going "YOLO" and not protecting themselves is a huge issue.

astral haven
#

🀷 they are scared of the word, but noone knows what it looks like unless they are professionals really

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah asbestos is silica bonded with magnesium isn't it?

iron wave
#

It's funny little natural fibers?

astral haven
#

unless the 60 year old labels advertising the asbestos content have stayed on and remained redable, the average worker wont be able to tell

vagrant pagoda
#

Generally you can tell it has asbestos if you break it and it's shiny/sparkly

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
#

Granted it isnt perfect

iron wave
#

At least in houses you have a cutoff of when you need to think about it.

vagrant pagoda
#

But if you break a tile/board/etc and it's shiny inside, and old

#

It's asbestos

astral haven
#

it looks relatively similar to fiberglass without inspecting it

vagrant pagoda
#

Same with popcorn ceilings

iron wave
#

Those are ugly.

astral haven
#

and if you can see the shiny, you are in danger

vagrant pagoda
#

Asbestos is a lot more sparkly/shiny than fiberglass

iron wave
#

Not that you should be breathing in fiberglass either.

vagrant pagoda
#

I always makes up for popcorn ceilings

iron wave
#

Or probably handling it directly either.

vagrant pagoda
#

But if I scrape and it sparkles, it only gets a water removal

#

I was in one place

#

That sat for 30 years

thick elk
#

Asbestos is pretty recognizable I think.

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
#

Popcorn had never been painted

#

You could dust the roof and see the sparkle

thick elk
#

As long as it sits in place it's no problem, the removal / breaking it is the health risk.

vagrant pagoda
#

I was like fuck thst

iron wave
#

Anything that isn't just clean air isn't advisable to breathe. :^)

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
#

I use forced air with a n100 on anything that isn't untreated wood dust

Fuck all that other shit

Same with vacs

Always use bags in the shop vac and blue filters

ray tracing is still a gimmick

#

games run badly enough as is

zenith silo
#

Don't know how that'll fit in your budget though

#

I think they should be cheaper than 4070

Indeed it is

cursive summit
#

500 brand new

#

6900XT is like.. marginally better?

zenith silo
#

Playing cod/MC with shaders it eats up 200-300wmm

zenith silo
cursive summit
#

But I doubt it's a better chip, 6900/6950XT I think just runs a higher clock so it's just an OC'd part

#

Although I don't quite remember

zenith silo
#

40$ more for like 9% increase in speed/performance, I'll take it

cursive summit
#

Ah no 6900XT actually gets more CUs

ashen spindle
cursive summit
#

So it's more than just an OC

ashen spindle
#

the 6950 was the one that got a small bump in tdp

cursive summit
#

Well considering with a 6000 series card you get FSR3 and AFMF, it's pretty dang great

#

Only thing you don't get is the Anti-lag+

zenith silo
#

I would've gotten my apex account banned when this was causing bans when it first released and auto enabled

cursive summit
#

Skill issue

#

Play better games lul

#

There's virtually no reason not to enable anti-lag

zenith silo
#

New feature auto enabled in driver's: new feature gets you banned from games

zenith silo

#

Kinda scummy on AMD's part, although not sure if it's architectural, to limit the + version to 7000 series

#

I seen lots of people saying they never enabled it but got banned check the driver software and it was auto enabled

#

Must've been false truths

fickle ore
#

mhm wasnt for me in the beta driver, maybe it was in the final release

zenith silo
#

Either way, AMD went about implementing that terribly

fickle ore
#

definitely

stuck surge
#

im not getting amd next because fsr really sucks vs dlss

#

6950xt has better memory than 6900xt thats it

umbral heron
#

They are pretty much exactly the same

stuck surge
#

They arent

#

Tensor cores are doing the work

zenith silo
stuck surge
#

Nvidia invested a ton of cash to make superior ai upscaler

ashen spindle
#

trust me dlss aint much better

#

even on my 4090

zenith silo
#

I don't like how either of them made my game look

umbral heron
#

Superior AI upscaler havo

stuck surge
#

and obv rt cores suck on amd too

zenith silo
#

I also play 1080p so they are absolutely useless

stuck surge
#

Well i prefer 4k native obv

ashen spindle
#

and if we are talking about next, unless you mean a current gpu we dont know what Rt looks like on either vendor next gen

stuck surge
#

Yea the lower the res the worse they are

zenith silo
#

I play 1080p240 I don't need ai upscaling

stuck surge
#

Next nvidia.will.still hold rt perf

zenith silo
#

Especially on the games I play

digital cliff
#

yeah because you can totally see the future πŸ’€

stuck surge
#

amd cant just quadruple rt perf in 1 gen

ashen spindle
#

but by how much and is it at that point still relevant

stuck surge
#

If amd had magic trick to gwt better rt they would do it already

zenith silo
#

Ray tracing doesn't look that much better to me

digital cliff
#

yeah why didn't people just invent cars 100 years earlier

#

if they had a magic trick surely they'd have done it already then

stuck surge
#

they would refresh this gen to just gen better rt perf if it was possible

#

Same as they did with 3d cache

ashen spindle
#

lmao absolutely not

#

there is a massive difference between changing core architechture and adding 3d cache when that was planned since the start

umbral heron
#

In the open-world there's practically no difference between RT and cubemaps
RT looks nice in closed spaces with a lot sources of light, but that's about it

zenith silo
#

It makes them look slightly nicer but the difference isn't noticeable enough for me to warrant using it

stuck surge
#

anti or ignorant to rt people have their 5 stages of copium

zenith silo
#

Or it's just not that noticeable for us

stuck surge
#

obviously nvidia ceo was right

#

The legit rt will be out in 2030+

umbral heron
stuck surge
#

So gpus that will have very good rt perf

#

pathtracing completley changes how cyberpunk looks

ashen spindle
#

yeah because companies never fuck up in future products and stuff could never change dogekek

stuck surge
#

Its a different game

ashen spindle
#

really isn't

stuck surge
#

Lookwise

ashen spindle
#

really isnt

stuck surge
#

Obviously it lacks samples

umbral heron
#

That's the point - only CP2077 makes use of RT, and that's mostly because it's a game with lots of light sources and lots of closed spaces

digital cliff
#

I'll admit I didn't even try RT because last I checked it didn't work on my setup and even then 6900xt is too shit in it to even bother

stuck surge
#

Once you realize what rt can do and what raster cant you start noticing it a lot

#

You cant cheat your way out of dynamic light ing

digital cliff
#

but I don't really care about it in the first place as long as the performance takes this big of a hit

stuck surge
#

Yea rt on cards before 30/40 sucks

ashen spindle
#

it still sucks on 40 cards

stuck surge
#

7900xtx can do something

#

the biggest difference for me is light blend

#

Color blending makes colossal difference sometimes

#

But i think also that current videogame rt algos arent properly constructed yet

#

mostly

#

they need to tweak it more to change the scene in more desirable ways

#

once games are made with rt in mind.it will be a big difference and even raster copers will give up

ashen spindle
#

ok so in some years where both vendors are on like 3+ gens in the future so literally doesnt matter which vendors does what today dogekek

umbral heron
#

Bro had too long of a stroll either on Nvidia subreddit or some interesting YT channel havo

stuck surge
#

4090 has best any performance

ashen spindle
#

by the time any game is made like that you'll need to upgrade to actualyl render that

stuck surge
#

But price sucks

ashen spindle
#

4090 does not have best any performance

stuck surge
#

has and fixed the massive amount of issues with 7xxx yet

ashen spindle
stuck surge
#

Best raster, best ai, best rt
