[misty matrix]

indeed, quite a bit cheaper than they used to be

[wild coyote]

Lemme just uhH limit my fps on star citizen and use lossless scaling

[misty matrix]

afaik that one has the same panel thats in mine, and yeah, paid almost 3x more for it

[steady sail]

Yeah that monitor is the same price as a 7900gre in Hungary xd

[misty matrix]

was quite some time ago to be fair

[misty matrix]

a good display is very important imo,

[steady sail]

Yeah 1440p180hz ips panel is better for me

[misty matrix]

a great/incredible one not so much i suppose, but hard to get the things oleds do good anywhere else

[steady sail]

If oled prices were would go under 500€ maybe

[misty matrix]

oh they will, relatively soon too

[steady sail]

But overall i dont care about them

[distant tapir]

Well if you can reach stable 120 fps I'd still do that + 2x frame gen etc. The 60 fps thing is best for games that are locked to 60 such as older ones since you can 'bypass' the fps cap.

[misty matrix]

first gen oleds will drop below 500 eur q2 2025 latest

[steady sail]

As my phone has oled display and im not blown away at all xd

[misty matrix]

different beasts

[wild coyote]

On my PC, Star citizen averages around 15-50fps

And that's with a Ryzen 7 5800X with RX 6700 XT

[leaden kiln]

What features do I get that I'm missing out on by just using my drivers

Simple doesn't mean good anyway

[wild coyote]

You can do a bios switch on the card, from silent to performance

Control the colors of the GPU

and add a little boost to gaming, as you can change quality or performance on the resolution

They also have a fan health check

[gusty nexus]

you should use adrenalin software but sapphire software let you tweak some settings that is not present on adrenalin software 😅

[steady sail]

my next pc case https://www.coolermaster.com/en-us/products/shark-x/

[gusty nexus]

7k ??

[wild coyote]

no... please...

It's a prebuild

[steady sail]

Still the case looks cool

[alpine patio]

those types should be prebuilt

[steady sail]

U paying for the case more then the pc parts in it soo

[wild coyote]

Personally I want Phanteks Enthoo Pro II

[alpine patio]

ya ig

but its clearly a passion project

oop nvm

[gusty nexus]

https://www.sapphiretech.com/en/consumer/nitro-radeon-rx-7900-xtx-vaporx-24g-gddr6
look so nice 👀

[steady sail]

I mean nitro cards always looked cool

[wild coyote]

24gb vram

love it

[steady sail]

Tho in gonna get the 7900 gre anyway

[gusty nexus]

Do you guys know how to get the same rgb on the picture of the 7900xtx ?

[steady sail]

Nope xd

[gusty nexus]

;-;

[quaint dew]

holy shit 💀

14700F on a 120mm aio with a b760i

i bet that ram is cl36

and shitas ssd

they dont mention the psu

[latent mural]

💀

[quaint dew]

and 4070tis

for 7k

[latent mural]

Looks nice

[alpine patio]

ya i just realised its comissioned

so cooler master taking a big cut

[alpine patio]

and its a passion project by some guy being fked

[leaden kiln]

Can't do I most of that from the drivers, I don't think the gpu has any rgb to begin with

[leaden kiln]

Well yeah I was asking what they were 😓

[steady sail]

Im still using amd drivers and thats it i dont need the asus crap on my pc lol

[gusty nexus]

nitro+ have rgb

[wild coyote]

Nitro+ gpus always has RGB

[leaden kiln]

Its too fat
I'm getting the lower end one like I said

Don't remember the name

[wild coyote]

AMD software can't do the same things what Trixx software does

[gusty nexus]

Pulse ?

[leaden kiln]

Yeah

[wild coyote]

A pulse? sheesh

[gusty nexus]

they're is also the Pulse in white called Pure

[leaden kiln]

Well I'm not planning on changing my resolution or bios all the time
I can control my fans on adrenalin

Only have a single 1080p60 monitor anyway so not much to change

[steady sail]

Upgrade that monitor tho if u gonna get a new card

[quaint dew]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FgVG7R 7k gets you this

[steady sail]

Imo u paying more for the case than the pc parts anyway

[leaden kiln]

Nah

[gusty nexus]

that's some pricy storage 😅

[quaint dew]

this isnt the first time theyve done this

[steady sail]

U gonna get bottlenecked like hell

[leaden kiln]

My case was only like 200 bucks
Not even on pcpartpicker

[leaden kiln]

I'm not playing much flatscreen so idc

[steady sail]

Even that card deserves a bigger and better monitor

ASUS ROG STRIX XG27ACS-W should i get it in white or in black

[leaden kiln]

I definitely want avoid getting a bigger one

[steady sail]

I cant decide lol

[gray gazelle]

hello, I have install windows

[gray gazelle]

If you are going to have an arm, i will take it on black

[steady sail]

I mean i can get white arms as well xd

[gray gazelle]

if you can get it, i prefer white

i am looking for a monitor of 144hz, 165hz or 180hz but i don't know what can I get

[steady sail]

I would just go with a 144hz 1080p monitor

[gray gazelle]

yeah but I don't know which one is the best of all 144hz 1080p monitors

[leaden kiln]

No one makes any good 24 inch 1440p monitors
Ngl where's my 24 inch 4k

[steady sail]

1440p not gonna look goon on 24”

[gray gazelle]

i want 1080p 144hz monitor but I don't know which one can I get

[steady sail]

Overall any

[gray gazelle]

you know what can I get?

[steady sail]

Any samsung monitor or lg monitors would be good enough

[gray gazelle]

can you recommend to me somone? i want with fast responsive times

[steady sail]

ASUS TUF Gaming VG249Q1A

[gray gazelle]

Could we said that is the faster of all the 144hz that right know are selling?

[steady sail]

Its overall cheap and fast

[gray gazelle]

ASUS VG248QG

and this one?

[distant tapir]

I too wonder where that is.

[steady sail]

I mean whats your budget for a monitor

[gray gazelle]

i have 250-300 €, if you can search a monitor 1080p 24 inches and 144hz, It will be a favour

[steady sail]

Pretty recent https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/best/gaming-monitors-under-300

[gray gazelle]

all are 1440 and the viewsonic is really bad

[leaden kiln]

Why not
1080p looks horrible so I can't imagine it would be worse

[misty matrix]

why 1080

[gray gazelle]

https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B07RMQ5PHX?tag=rtings-es-mn-21&ie=UTF8

[wild coyote]

It's 24 inch

1080p looks alright on a 24 inch anyways

And having a budget as well limits options

[misty matrix]

300 eur is a bit much for a 144hz 1080

[wild coyote]

It's standard

[misty matrix]

meant the other guy

[wild coyote]

200-300 for 144hz 1080p

[gray gazelle]

I put 300 eur because I don't know how much it cost

[misty matrix]

koorui 24e3

[gray gazelle]

i want the best one 1080p 144hz

[gray gazelle]

is on amazon?

[misty matrix]

is

[gray gazelle]

is this one, no?

[distant tapir]

For that budget you can go for 1440p.

[misty matrix]

yes

[gray gazelle]

my laptop don't run games in 1440p

[gray gazelle]

and between that one and the ASUS VG248QG, whitch one? I can afford both of them

[misty matrix]

get the koorui

the asus one is overpriced as hell

[gray gazelle]

is better than de koorui but is overpriced, no?

[misty matrix]

im pretty sure that panel thats in the koorui is one of the best 1080p 165hz ones

[gray gazelle]

okaay, thanks bro

[misty matrix]

if you want, you could look for a display arm to get better ergonomics on it

[gray gazelle]

I have an arm to put the monitor

[misty matrix]

then the koorui is a great pick

[wild coyote]

Try to find a good 1440p monitor with 144-240 hz in Finland that's less than 300

[misty matrix]

I think the most difficult part of that would be me somehow getting to finland

lol

[gray gazelle]

but my laptop don't run 1440 games

[steady sail]

Imo the 3050 12gb would struggle

[wild coyote]

That's for me, cuz I said "in Finland"

[gray gazelle]

ahhh okay hahha

[wild coyote]

I have 2 computers

Desktop and Laptop

Desktop can handle all xd

[misty matrix]

look at m27q or m27qx

[gray gazelle]

and one thing refering to my laptop what browser is the best one, I had opera gx, micorosft edge...

[steady sail]

Get another oled

[misty matrix]

one issue with it, is that the stand is pretty bulky

[wild coyote]

Firefox for non-chromium based. Arc for chromium based browser

[misty matrix]

otherwise, its a pretty good display

especially at that pricepoint

[wild coyote]

I'll keep my 24 inch oled monitor for them epic movies :)

[misty matrix]

welp, you ask I provide

[steady sail]

I never heard of arc browser lmao

[gray gazelle]

@misty matrix I will take the koorui and I will say you what are my feelings with it

[wild coyote]

You'd be surprised how it looks

Search up Arc

[steady sail]

Im good with brave xd

[wild coyote]

ehh brave is a no-no for me

[gray gazelle]

I trust on you with your recomendation xd

[spare wedge]

Arc is another chromium based browser

[wild coyote]

With a completely different UI compared to other browsers

[misty matrix]

it should do you well, but remember, if you dont like it, can always return within 2 weeks

[wild coyote]

I'd pick Arc over anything tbh

[steady sail]

Imo its ugly as fuck

[wild coyote]

Diff opinions

I like it tho

[gray gazelle]

I know I know, if i dont like it, you know about another monitor with the sames specifications or better if there is?

[steady sail]

Brave night all day all night

[misty matrix]

honestly, we gonna cross that bridge when we get there

[gray gazelle]

okaaay

[gray gazelle]

in a emergency case, we will cross that bridge jajaja

[wild coyote]

My opinion on browsers

Chrome : good for school, anything else nuh
Opera : spyware 101, I don't trust it xd
Brave : I don't trust whatever they tell you
Arc : Different UI, but sure as hell more trusted
Ungoogled chromium : It beats all, hush

Firefox : my main one xd

[gray gazelle]

ungoogled chronium?

[wild coyote]

It's chrome, but no google stuff in it

[spare wedge]

Just chrome without the google stuff

[gray gazelle]

ahh okay

[spare wedge]

It’s honestly a waste of time if you want to keep it updated

You’ll have to compile unless you wait for binaries by random users

[gray gazelle]

I read that the top 3 are Firefox, Arc and Brave, are not in this order but I have read that are the best

[spare wedge]

Compiling ungoogled chromium will take a while, even with a beefy setup

[wild coyote]

There is a setup already available

You don't need to compile urself

[umbral heron]

Imagine compiling browsers in 2024 https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/releases/tag/128.0.6613.119-1

[wild coyote]

It's just better to compile yerr self

[ashen spindle]

better in what way

[spare wedge]

The main thing is trust really

Who knows what people put in the binaries they release to the wild

[wild coyote]

My opinion for Brave came from this https://rentry.co/brave-trash

[spare wedge]

Since it’s open source, you can look at it and deem it whether it’s trustworthy and compile it yourself

Tho, a lot of people don’t really do that

[wild coyote]

It's up to people if they want to use it or not. But Simply won't deal with Brave

[spare wedge]

I just use librewolf and call it a day

[wild coyote]

Fr, not a bad choice

I use Mozilla's sync cuz I got bookmarks n stuff

And I tend to reinstall windows without saving them

[steady sail]

I mean i used google chrome till 2022 xd

[spare wedge]

Imo any of the major browsers are fine

They’ll do stupid shit for greed anyways

[umbral heron]

So... you don't use Brave... and yet are fine with Windows...
Something's not calculating

[wild coyote]

Woahh exposing me?

EU has my back against Windows

[umbral heron]

They sure do

[steady sail]

[slow spoke]

yo guys why do the wooting 60he sound so much better in person those sound test vids didnt do it justice 😭

[late grove]

I am using brave because it can play stuff in the background on mobile. And I then use the sync feature to sync stuff.
So far I am happy with it.

Not sure if there are better alternatives. Might give mullvad a try. Firefox had too many issues for me.

[slow spoke]

yeah thats reasonable

[leaden kiln]

I used firefox on my phone before but it's so slow with a couple thousand tabs open
And it doesn't show a bar with tabs at the top which sucks
I'm just back to chrome

[steady sail]

on phone i use both safari and chrome LOL

[slow spoke]

yeah i remember a long long time ago having to use firefox to listen to music on my phone 🤣

while playing games

[steady sail]

even when i had a i5 3470 and a r7 360 and 12gb ram i mostly listened to streams or just random videos from browser

[leaden kiln]

Phone only has 12 gigs 😭
The tab overview is too good to live without

[steady sail]

i mean right now im using 32gigs and 2 monitors soo

[leaden kiln]

Used to have 64 on my desktop but I rarely used more than 8, only got 32 when it was ddr5 time

The newer models cost more than double

[gray gazelle]

ouu I am thinking right now and I must use Chrome for school with the google documents and all that things

[steady sail]

u can use google drive in any browser

[gray gazelle]

so I will imstall brave

guh

just use firefox

The writer back peddled a lot

[wild coyote]

fr

but the writer also has a point towards brave and what you could use

[old marlin]

yea too bad everything else is trash

mozilla being an ad company now is still the lesser evil

[steep creek]

i use arc and brave. once arc becomes good enough on windows i’ll stop using brave

[wild coyote]

wym "good enough on windows"?

[steep creek]

just that the macos version is more polished and has way more features

[smoky frigate]

it's only a little bit of syphilis

[old marlin]

yea instead of the bs that everyone else gives you

[umbral heron]

I would said it's just shite right now, but that'd summon Tony out of nowhere

So I won't

[old marlin]

don't think tony liked arc on windows

[steady sail]

./summon Tony

[old marlin]

also I think he is at wootstock

[wild coyote]

If Arc is better on MacOS in features and more polished looked, ig we're playing the waiting game

[umbral heron]

He is, but that won't stop him

[steep creek]

i still use it despite the issues

[umbral heron]

What still confuses me is why they didn't want to port Arc to Linux
Apple offers official Swift bindings and toolkits for Linux
And yet, they opted to port Swift stuff to Windows first for some reason

[steep creek]

because they want more users

but true it’s a good point

[umbral heron]

Eh, they'll just skip Linux altogether

Here's hoping for Ladybird and Servo

[steep creek]

i guess to even it out, ladybird browser won’t come on windows for now

[digital cliff]

new web engine huh

[umbral heron]

Yup, and both projects are being developed like crazy

[digital cliff]

i mean if they insist on their browser joining the other browsers in the graveyard, that's one way to do it

I don't have optimism for a non-blink engine sadly

[umbral heron]

Gecko... works

[old marlin]

for the most part

[digital cliff]

it's the only reasonable alternative

[steep creek]

i don’t enjoy webkit either, breaks a few websites

[old marlin]

only major thing that is broken with firefox for me is webusb

otherwise firefox got a few quirks that I can live with

[umbral heron]

This and PWA on Firefox is a mess

[old marlin]

ah

[wild coyote]

The only W that Firefox has, removing duplicated tabs with 2 clicks

[gray gazelle]

how is my task manager now ? i have reinstall windows 11

[wild coyote]

That's mainly for people who keep having like over 30 fuckin' tabs at once

[old marlin]

and not forcing app manifest v3

[umbral heron]

uBlock

[wild coyote]

lmao ublock?

[old marlin]

and not making a significant amount of money with microloans

and not diverting donations made with their services

[wild coyote]

Meh

game is game

[steep creek]

lol

[old marlin]

other browsers just take so many massive Ls

[wild coyote]

There isn't the best "browser"

[steady sail]

everyone uses what they want

[wild coyote]

There's only "chromium or not"

[crimson wigeon]

Opera GX come on all the gamers love it

[wild coyote]

not rlly, I actually hate the company behind it lmao

[gray gazelle]

ouuu my god 🙂

[smoky frigate]

this is something that most linux users will never grasp

[wild coyote]

Have fun :D

[old marlin]

I would agree but opera is just the scum of the earth

[wild coyote]

This defines Opera/Opera GX https://rentry.co/operagx

[old marlin]

not malicious but straight up evil

[wild coyote]

They are evil indeed

[steady sail]

i mean i love their twitter

[gray gazelle]

I have operaGX for... 2-3 years?

[crimson wigeon]

Hell yeah sign me up I love malware

[wild coyote]

Their twitter is funny, but the company itself is evil

[old marlin]

yea uhhhh https://www.spacebar.news/stop-using-opera-browser/

opera the company might be the worst one out there for browsers

[wild coyote]

Ideally the same ^^

[gray gazelle]

I have change to brave since 1 hour

[wild coyote]

Vivaldi is also good xd

[old marlin]

this one divulges further into the microloan thing

and focuses less on the other stuff

[gray gazelle]

Using Opera GX can be one of the parts that make my laptop work slower ?

[late grove]

Been an Opera GX user in the past when they were just starting. Uninstalled after I realized how bloated it was.
I had an very old Alienware laptop with a 2C/4T CPU in it. And Opera was making 12 instances of itself and using 100% of CPU while doing nothing.

[old marlin]

I mean can

[wild coyote]

Well yes

It's really bad

[old marlin]

atm firefox with the betterfox stuff should be some of the fastest ones around that is still modern?

[wild coyote]

I've been telling friends about Opera GX, but they tend not to fuckin' listen lmao

Feelin' Vivaldi 101

[gray gazelle]

I have change to brave since 1 hour and right know I fell the pc faster

[misty matrix]

some ppl just dont care

[umbral heron]

Firefox + uBlock and we ball

• ungoogled-chromium for Wootility

[wild coyote]

I agree with this statement

[old marlin]

tbh I just use reg chrome for webusb stuff

not much data they can gather there anyways

larry page will steal my keymap

[wild coyote]

Vivaldi kinda lit tho?

[old marlin]

yea vivaldi is made by ex-opera people

[wild coyote]

The good people 😭

[umbral heron]

I use it because chromium is in Arch repo, and Chrome is in AUR
And I try not use AUR as much as possible, it makes both updates and my life miserable

[steep creek]

opera used to be good ages ago if im not wrong

[old marlin]

[old marlin]

yea they got bought tho

[gray gazelle]

you are not wrong

[wild coyote]

Opera WAS good ages ago, until it got bought out

[steep creek]

yea i remember using it before, was a nice experience

[wild coyote]

Before 2016

It was top tier

[umbral heron]

I used Firefox ever since I got my very own PC in 2004
My uncle's friend who was setting me up my PC got me fresh Firefox 1.0 back then, and then I got updates from small PC magazine I used to buy
He also got me GTA:SA and CSZero: Deleted Scenes

[wild coyote]

💀

Snapchat AI smokin' zaza

[old marlin]

also was quite an early adopter, must have been around 2003-2004

[late grove]

AI is fueled by data from the search engines. Which then contains everything that's sponsored, promoted by idiots (because they are the majority) and generated by other AI that is then fed the same data.

And the cycle continues.

[umbral heron]

Habsburg AI theory

[wild coyote]

Dunno why Tor is in there, that's just onion routing 101

I'd probably remove Brave, DuckDuckGo and whatever the hell is "Epic Privacy Browser"

Don't get me wrong, DuckDuckGo ain't a bad choice, just their search engine is bad

[steady sail]

i might swtich to vivaldi

[wild coyote]

Just cuz it looks pretty good or?

[steady sail]

tho importing from brave is take a while xd

[late grove]

From what I know Mullvad is the best for privacy.

[wild coyote]

Mullvad is always the best

They got the best privacy VPN to exist

AirVPN is also a good option, but with port fowarding capabilities

[umbral heron]

ProtonVPN
Good enough
Also, why use VPN apart from watching content from other countries?

[gray gazelle]

can somone help me to optimize my laptop or quit things that are not going to be useful?

[distant tapir]

https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/brave

[late grove]

Mullvad have a browser.

I am a ProtonVPN user myself.

[wild coyote]

Remove some start up applications, after you've installed whatever you need

[steep creek]

i like proton

[gray gazelle]

I have done that

[wild coyote]

And uninstall any useless applications, bloatware n stuff

Proton is acceptable

[gray gazelle]

what app or what thing can I use to uninstall?

[umbral heron]

I moved to Proton with my e-mail too, and moved my parents' emails there
Now they have fancy [e-mail] mails

[late grove]

Do you have your own windows 10 installed on the laptop?

[wild coyote]

Win11

[gray gazelle]

windows 11

but yes, is my own

[wild coyote]

W

[late grove]

Do you have updates blocked?

[steep creek]

i got a really nice proton mail adress. cant believe it wasn't taken

[distant tapir]

One of my favourite parts about a new build is getting the clean install, removing all bloatware crap and setting things up just perfectly.

[gray gazelle]

nop, but I use the microsoft 365 and all that things so I don't know I i need to block that

[distant tapir]

Perfect order to everything.

[balmy vector]

Hmmm maybe i should make one

[wild coyote]

Could delete Skype

yk, the most useless app in 2024 nowadays

[late grove]

That's your first problem. You should move to Windows 10 and block updates. As far as I know there is currently no way to block windows 11 updates.

[umbral heron]

I have several addresses now
Including [e-mail] for when I was looking for a job

[late grove]

Unless you use an older version of it or something. That shit always gets through.

[distant tapir]

Is there W11 LTSC yet?

[balmy vector]

Yeah theres an LTSC i think

[late grove]

I have an old Windows 10 ISO that I debloated myself, disabled updates and then also used CTT's windows utility to disable updates. That's the only way I got it working 100%.

[gray gazelle]

My problem is that I use the 365 options

[late grove]

If you want I can help you set this up.

[ashen spindle]

11lts is not fully out yet just in preview

[late grove]

It should still work. I have office installed on my PC right now.

[gray gazelle]

and the license?

[late grove]

Yes

[distant tapir]

Isn't LTSC kinda bad for compatibility with software/games?

[late grove]

You log in to your MS account on each app seperately.

[ashen spindle]

also gotta keep in mind ltsc sometimes has things missing you need to reinstall for games but that depends

[late grove]

Did you log in to your MS account when setting up Windows 11?

[ashen spindle]

idk how well it will for for 11

[gray gazelle]

yes

[wild coyote]

You'd have to download every single redist out there

[late grove]

Yeah, bad move.

[wild coyote]

Ary

Ryzoh has school

Uses Microsoft 365

[gray gazelle]

the laptop has 2 years

[gray gazelle]

and I need 100% for work in a future

[wild coyote]

^^

[distant tapir]

Don't games install those themselves though?

[ashen spindle]

nope

[wild coyote]

If you have them saved on another drive, nope

[late grove]

[wild coyote]

If it's freshly installed, yeah

[ashen spindle]

for example gta5 needs some media player component that was not there on the windows N version for the eu market so you had to manually add that

[late grove]

Pretty sure GTA 5 is an exception.

I did have some programs not install their visual C++ which was kinda dumb but you can just download these online

[ashen spindle]

on ltsc I think that part might actually be added but then again we dont quite know how 11 ltsc will look like if more or less stuff is stripped away

Or just hoard them yourself

[wild coyote]

why...

Redist AIO exists

[distant tapir]

Fitgirl kindly adds the one I need when I download a game anyway.

[gray gazelle]

I have all the apps that I want and I have unistall all of them that are useless

[late grove]

Cheers

[wild coyote]

Does it feel slow?

[gray gazelle]

no, but, I can do anymore?

[wild coyote]

As far as I know, not really

Unless you're a internet privacy paranoid type of person, you're all good

[gray gazelle]

I am not that type of person xd

[late grove]

@gray gazelleLook man. Your install will most likely be fine. Until windows stars auto updating and your laptop funs will go ham out of nowhere and your performance may also nosedive while it happens.
Your laptop will most likely work fine maybe even for a while. The reason why we debloat is to prevent stuf from going wrong. But when and how they go wrong obviously nobody can predict.

You can leave it as is or you can go full schizo and make a custom windows 10 iso and then further use debloat tools and update blockers to make sure that the OS will not implode on itself.
It's not hard to do but it will take a while.

I can show you how if you are willing to put in the effort.

[wild coyote]

He'll be fine with win11

as he needs for personal and work

So win11 is perfect as it is for him.

[late grove]

Wooting is gonna have a long way to catch up with current state of the art mice.

[vagrant pagoda]

So starting like 10 years ago, I stopped installing multiple versions of Ms redist, and never caused an issue

It's blows my mind that they don't have a single library as there is support for dll versioning

[warped kayak]

#BelieveInBenelux

[vagrant pagoda]

I mean id use a worse mouse for better software any day of the week

And wooting has the best keyboard software handsdown

[late grove]

What software features are you missing with your mouse?

[vagrant pagoda]

If they could bring that polish to mice, it would be killer

Easy to use, not crashing, not stealing my information,, etc

[late grove]

Most mice are moving to web based software like Wootility. And so far the 2 I have tried have worked flawlessly with the same level of polish.

[steady sail]

imagine using software for ur mouse

[vagrant pagoda]

What i said applies to all the big peripheral manufacturers

[vagrant pagoda]

You don't set dpi, colors or macros?

[steady sail]

i dont have rgb and i dont understand macros LOL

and i have a dedicated dpi button LOL

[vagrant pagoda]

Lol and you use the preset dpi instead of finding what's best for you?

[fresh star]

anyone know how to fix wobbling on keys?

[steady sail]

i mean i used 400dpi switched to 600 dpi and switched to 950 and now im on 1200dpi

[gray gazelle]

Thanks to @steady sail @wild coyote and more people for help me to fix my laptop, now the apps are x2 or x3 faster than 5 hours ago

[vagrant pagoda]

That just be how it be

Unless one key is worse

If so swap the key cap with another key to see if it's the cap

[wild coyote]

No problem, just be careful what applications you install. They may slow down

[gray gazelle]

epicgames,spotify and riot and nothing else

[fresh star]

im on the default wooting what keycaps are recommended?

[vagrant pagoda]

Is it one key or all of them

[steady sail]

the only reason i have epicgames on my pc is the free games

[fresh star]

majority of them ngl

[steady sail]

get new switches

[lyric hatch]

New switches with tighter tolerances

[fresh star]

its like luck based with tighter tolerance no?

[lyric hatch]

Not really better switches have better tolerances and less wobble in general

One of the biggest changes from lekker v1 to lekker v2 is just improved tolerances

[balmy vector]

Mhm, v2s feel good. So do 1.5s

[fresh star]

i have the yellow ones lwk forgot what the exact name is but its off the wooting site

[balmy vector]

They’re probably v1s of l45s if i had to guess

[fresh star]

yea i think ur right

i have the 60he do u recommended the 1.5s?

[lofty pivot]

hop over to #🔧│keyboard_modding and folks can direct you to the switches that are tighter. Different switches have different tightnesses

some tighter than others

[steady sail]

if u have the box its on it

[steady sail]

nice

[warped kayak]

Use the same dpi, but had to fix a frequency switch. Apparently some games can't handle 8khz mice.

[lyric hatch]

Only like 99% of them

[old marlin]

Games can handle it usually

You need a clean install tho

[warped kayak]

@lyric hatch it is weak of those games we need more gains 💪

[steady sail]

im on 1k anyway xd

[thin axle]

My mouse has no hall effect gateron micro switches @late grove Big Sad 😦

[late grove]

There is probably a reason why we don't use keyboard switches on mice.

[thin axle]

Yes, I think the reason is waiting for wooting. :O!

Y’all weren’t kidding, these dot skates slap

how i can reset the kb on factory nerw?

[digital cliff]

go into wootility and click reset in the settings

[old marlin]

wrong

[coarse cloak]

looks fine to me

[analog sinew]

well that is cubic primitve anyway, could at least be face-centered cubic smh

[digital cliff]

I know what these words mean but not in this order

[analog sinew]

face centered cubic is the densest packing of spheres

all i'm saying is to shift the lower row but in crystallography :P

[digital cliff]

what the

[analog sinew]

I am here to answer questions :P

[digital cliff]

i don't know what to ask

too little information to even ask

[analog sinew]

this is about atom lattices. How you can stack them. What you drew would be cubic primitive

and thats not an efficient spacefill

and a very rare occurence in nature

for example, the only element that crystallices in a cubic primitive lattice is Polonium

almost all metals are in the two other cubics or in hexagonal lattices

[digital cliff]

I see

I will take this information to my grave

[analog sinew]

😾

[digital cliff]

what? :o

I'm guarding it with my life

and in the afterlife too

[analog sinew]

It felt kinda mocking sry :D

[digital cliff]

I mean it's interesting, just not my field so I don't know if I have any application for such info

I'll just keep it and then I can randomly tell someone if they knew that polonium is the only element that naturally crystallizes in a cubic primitive lattice

and then they'll be weirded out and moonwalk out of the room

[analog sinew]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-leaving-leave-oops-bye-gif-17519616

[analog sinew]

aren't you a carpenter? so if you ever do a project with stacking spheres you know what the topic is called :D

[digital cliff]

not really a carpenter since I don't really... build. I make furniture

but english doesn't have a good word for that except... furnituremaker. but that sounds odd

I can count the number of times I've had to deal with spheres with one finger

[analog sinew]

strange brits

german has a word for it too

two even

[digital cliff]

brits call em cabinetmakers

burgerland calls everyone who touches wood carpenters

but they really mean the kind that build houses

[analog sinew]

German its Schreiner or Tischler (the latter being literally table-ler)

as in someone who makes a table

(and such)

[digital cliff]

yeah makes sense

finnish on top once again calling us woodsmiths

[analog sinew]

thats so cliche nordic

[digital cliff]

smiths make things out of metal, woodsmiths make things out of wood

smart!

[analog sinew]

i wanna see someone whack superheated wood into shape

[ashen spindle]

and schreiner comes from shrine basically, used to also be Kistenmacherei which would literally be box-makening

[digital cliff]

shrines remind me of the japanese carpenters that specialize in building shinto shrines

training takes like 7 years as is usual for anything japanese and then you spend your entire life just making shrines

[analog sinew]

yeah it's more shrine in the sense of "something that contains something"

[ashen spindle]

yeah like a closet or box or coffins

[digital cliff]

I don't have that connotation with the word shrine 🤔

[analog sinew]

like the word "enshrined"

shrine in the catholic sense is a container

[ashen spindle]

yeah probably originates from the catholic area

[digital cliff]

I'm learning so many new things today

[analog sinew]

wikipedia says latin loanword

[digital cliff]

internet says catholic box

I don't know catholicism at all so shrine to me is a small temple and that's that

I can practically feel my brain wrinkle

[analog sinew]

quick get the eucalyptus

[digital cliff]

what's the eucalyptus for

[analog sinew]

koalas have smooth brains

ofc its not caused by eucalyptus but the association is there

[digital cliff]

it doesn't stop

[analog sinew]

no it doesnt

[digital cliff]

I'm just gonna have to start carrying a notebook around you so I can write all this down

[analog sinew]

now tell us more finland facts

whats ur favorite swear word

i need to call my half finish friend something

[ashen spindle]

oh I know the best for that

just call him swedish

[analog sinew]

idk if that works on him

he's so international

he's a finish-italian raised in germany

[misty matrix]

is there finnland here?

[analog sinew]

no it isnt real

[misty matrix]

oh no, that ship has sailed, I know its real

[digital cliff]

oh I don't think I have one, different ones for different situations

[misty matrix]

I have pizza for finnnland...

finland can into pizza?

wonder if they will reveal any more apple intelligence features lol

[ashen spindle]

wonder if lana will post the same old caption when we get the next 15 android phones that are also the same old shit again

[frozen ingot]

yep

like what you expect, phones have been basically identical for like a decade now

[steep creek]

yeah i’ve lost interest in phones personally

[frozen ingot]

yeah its like the most boring field of consumer tech there is nowadays

[leaden kiln]

Foldable is the last cool thing I remember
I've never seen one in the wild i don't think

And google just makes their phones look more like amongus

[frozen ingot]

personally I find foldables dumb as shit

but each to their own

the tech is cool, but in practice..

[leaden kiln]

In practice they are awesome
Send from my Galaxy Z fold

[steep creek]

yeah it’s cool. my concern is the durability especially that you can scratch it so easily

[frozen ingot]

crease screen 🤮

[digital cliff]

yeah why have phones been so samey for the past 10 years! I want a star-shaped screen goddamnit! rectangles.... it's always rectangles! booooooringgggg, gimme a sphere for a phone

[frozen ingot]

and yes they do break very easily

[steep creek]

yeah i’d break it in a few days if i had one

[unkempt lake]

lmao

[wheat plume]

Yeah, unless the phone has a feature I want xd Like symetrical bezels and flat sides

[leaden kiln]

Nooo not flat sides

[leaden kiln]

I don't see how it would break in a few days
Im keeping mine in my metal dust covered workplace and I'm fine so far
I guess one might worry about the hinge long term but I don't consider the screen getting scratched easier the same as the phone breaking

[frozen ingot]

my brother has had his in for repairs twice I think lol

he has kids though

[leaden kiln]

Damn that sucks
Can't imagine repairs are cheap on any phone nowadays but especially a foldable

[analog sinew]

foldable phones are just for people who played too much cyberpunk or sth

[leaden kiln]

Did they have that in cyberpunk
Maybe I didn't play it enough

[steep creek]

because im not really that careful with my phones. i drop it, put it in my backpack etc

its been dunked in water more times than i'd like to admit as well

[analog sinew]

i just mean to say that its an... uh optimistically futuristic technology

like, yeah having a bigger screen is nice

but its just way too complex and shit to not break on you

[leaden kiln]

I'm sure it would survive a backpacking unless u leave it open for some reason, dropping will break normal phones too, I'm no material scientist but I think the plastic screen would maybe survive that better than the outer one
And at least samsungs have ip ratings just like normal phones
Maybe I'm nitpicking, they're definitely more fragile, I can't say they aren't, even have moving parts 🥴

[steep creek]

oh it would be left with the screen open. im sure it'd be better with it closed

its just not a phone for my usecase personally. but its a nice piece of tech for sure

ive dropped my phone a few times on the edge of the sidewalk, so the screen lands directly on it. it only survived because of the screen protector, i assume these type of screen protectors aren't available for foldables yet

[leaden kiln]

I think ther are some for the inner screen
But personally I don't really use the big screen much when I'm like walking around, mostly when I'm sitting down, it's just too big and unwieldy to use with a single hand while walking

[frozen ingot]

I want those phones that'd wrap around your arm like a watch

[steep creek]

thats fair

[frozen ingot]

that nokia showed off like a hundred years ago

[steep creek]

smartwatch with esim lol

[analog sinew]

yeah its coming next year with the holograms

[leaden kiln]

You know the more I about this the worse it sounds like it would be

Like how are you going to fit any hardware into a phone that's all hinge
And how much would it weigh and how wide and uncomfortable would it be

[frozen ingot]

given current foldable tech am not too hopeful either

[leaden kiln]

Most batteries and pcbs aren't so soft I don't think 🤔

[old marlin]

they can be

[leaden kiln]

I had to uncomfortably bend all the pcbs in my keyboard to build it

[old marlin]

flex PCBs are a thing

[frozen ingot]

flexing pcbs has been a thing for years

batteries a bit harder though

[old marlin]

and batteries are soft (they don't like getting bent tho)

there are ways around it tho

like splitting it in a lot of cells that each only bend a slight amount at most

[neat lion]

hey guys i have a quick question

can anyone tell me if this prebuild is any good

[tropic storm]

doesnt really provide much info tbh

cant see price, cpu, ram gen/speed

[ashen spindle]

price is there but look for more information that shows which cpu it is

[tropic storm]

oh is it the 999?

[ashen spindle]

it should be some 4 or 5 digit number after core i5

[neat lion]

its core i5 14400

[spare wedge]

Aint no way it’s a 4 digit lol

[tropic storm]

no letter at the end right?

[late grove]

What currency is that and how much is that in EUR?

[ashen spindle]

price is okay for those components

i quckly threw a list of average parts together and the sum isn't too far off

[neat lion]

about 1070 euro

im looking to upgrade from a 1050 and i7 8700

[late grove]

For a prebuild it's not that bad. But you can definitely build a much faster system for less.

[ashen spindle]

yeah thats an acceptable price so if you were looking to get that system, seems good to take

[tropic storm]

big upgrade fr

[late grove]

8700K or 8700 normal?

[gusty nexus]

You should build it yourself, it's fun and you get a better cost/performance ratio on the computer
Prebuilt tend to suck build wise, temp wise and quality wise

[tired cedar]

for a $1700 build is the 7800x3d too expensive?

[late grove]

Yeah that case looks like a furnace.

[ashen spindle]

depends on the rest of the build

[late grove]

So even if the components aren't the worst for the price, the cooling will definitely be.

[late grove]

No.

[late grove]

Don't.

[tired cedar]

what gpu could i get with a 7800x3d in a $1700 build? i was looking towards a 4070ti/super

[neat lion]

is it that bad?

[late grove]

What country are you in? Is that germany?

[neat lion]

switzerland

[ashen spindle]

no it's fine, ignore him he likes to be contrarian

[tired cedar]

is AIO water cooling really better than air cooling? ive heard it gets more issues over the years and just doesnt seem worth it

[gusty nexus]

No but by making it yourself you can have so much more

[late grove]

Ah. Ok so please answer my first question. Do you have 8700 normal or 8700K?

[tropic storm]

it keeps the parts safe from the scary air!

[neat lion]

normal

[late grove]

Yes it is better.

[tired cedar]

okay ty

[ashen spindle]

its not worth it because cpus dont produce as much heat so you dont deal with issues that dont happen on air coolers

[spare wedge]

Barely

[ashen spindle]

unless you want to overclock or get fancy its not worth the extra cost

[steep creek]

tbh air cooling is fine. something like the deepcool assassin is pretty decently priced as well

[late grove]

Ok I see. Are you willing to dable in used market? You can get insane deals there. Potentially saving over 50% compared to buying new.

[steep creek]

can handle x3d chips very well

[spare wedge]

A good air cooler can reach the same temps as an aio cooler

[gusty nexus]

It's better but it last less than a air cooler
Long lasting water cooling is custom and not aio

[tired cedar]

Western digital WD Black is a good ssd right?

[late grove]

RTX 5000 cards are launching soon. I suggest you wait until that happens then hunt for people panic selling their 4080s.

[wild coyote]

Okay, simple way to put it.

Getting a prebuilt will give you a computer that's already built for you. You don't need to take your time building it and installing a operating system from a USB drive. Costs more than self build

Building a PC yourself can give you a smaller price on hardware compared to the prebuilt one, however it will take sometime to set it up and you'd have to install windows through a USB drive

[ashen spindle]

it's also not straight up better, a pump always makes some noise, a fan that is spinning slowly at idle is quieter for example

[wild coyote]

Absolutely

[late grove]

Yes.

[spare wedge]

AIO imo is just there for aesthetics

[late grove]

It can't.

[tired cedar]

this is for my friend, i was recommending him to get a pc for christmas and somehow we went from discussing a $500 build to him asking if a $1700 build will suffice lol

[ashen spindle]

for the love of god can you stop recommending stuff to people based on unknown "facts" like 50 series launching?

[late grove]

No.

[tropic storm]

basically you pay for the convenience with a prebuilt.

[tired cedar]

isnt 50 series delayed

[nimble canopy]

people wont panic sell their 4080

[wild coyote]

Yep

[late grove]

Unlike you I do provide advice based on experience and out of the box thinking. Instead of going with purely safe and socially accepted solutions.

[tropic storm]

just gotta make sure you arrent paying too much for the convenience.

[ashen spindle]

Instead of going with purely safe and socially accepted solutions.
holy shit what are you even talking about

[tired cedar]

How is the Phanteks XT Pro Ultra?

[late grove]

Ok I will say it differentely. Shut the hell up for fuck sake and stop ridiculing every single thing I say on this channel.

[tired cedar]

and is there any benefit of buying more expensive case fans other than looks?

[ashen spindle]

No I will not when you constantly try to "help" people based on you guessing stuff

[wild coyote]

After searching what that case looks like as well as what you can build on it. Depends on specs. It sure as hell seem to be a good aesthetic type

[late grove]

It happened with every generation. What makes you think it won't happen now?

[gusty nexus]

50 series may even never exist if nvidia keep making ai product because ai give them so much more money than gaming cards

[ashen spindle]

Nah it will exist thats not even a question

[tired cedar]

yeah i like the look of it

[wild coyote]

Personally, I want the enthoo pro II

[tropic storm]

they would move more air and perform better, though if you're unsure I would just run with what the case has and if things seem to be running hot consider new fans.

[steep creek]

i’m not sure if the release date for the 50 series is known. if you need a gpu now, 40 series / amd seems to be alright to me at least

[late grove]

Looks like an average case to me. If it's dirt cheap then it's worth a buy.

[steep creek]

of course if it’s within your budget

[spare wedge]

They’re going to keep making AI products

[late grove]

December, allegedly.

[wild coyote]

85 euros for the Phanteks XT Pro Ultra in Finland

[late grove]

AMD will most likely launch early. Maybe october.

[spare wedge]

It’s the reason why they’re #1 in market value

[tired cedar]

ye i didnt realize it came with 4 fans at first

[wild coyote]

Quickly, invest in AMD stocks

!!!

[spare wedge]

Maybe AMD will fix their visual corruption bug with rdna4

[ashen spindle]

visual corruption bug?

[late grove]

RX 8800XT rumored to be a 4080 competitor at 500$. If that is true, 4080 prices will inevitebly go down. And if they don't then hell, get the 8800XT unless you know that you will be fighting AMD drivers.

[gusty nexus]

Yes I know that's why I'm saying that they continue into that path, NVIDIA could stop the production of gaming cards to make more ai card

[ashen spindle]

no because those cards is how they get people used to the cuda ecosystem from the start

and it makes no sense abandoning a massively profitable business that you can always fall back to if the other would crash

[tropic storm]

I guess the one thing it doesn't have is fans at the top, if you're getting a radiator don't worry but otherwise I would look into some fans.

[astral haven]

^ this and besides the 4090, the cards arent directly usable for enterprise ai chips

[gusty nexus]

All thoses "leakers" are saying every week something else and there's some youtubers that keep making clickbait video of said leaks every week, it's not trustworthy information

[neat lion]

should o het the pc?

[tired cedar]

yeah i put an arctic 360mm liquid freezer III so it should be good

[ashen spindle]

yes its fine and the price is okay too

[gusty nexus]

True

[steep creek]

waiting for the ai bubble to burst

[late grove]

Some are trustworthy. And it's in general a good indication on what is to come even if it doesn't end up being 100% accurate.

[neat lion]

how much fps would i get in games like valo all low settings

[late grove]

With what?

[balmy vector]

Thatll be one hell of a day

[tropic storm]

the prebuilt

[spare wedge]

Stuff like this

[late grove]

Uhh idk, go YT that stuff. My estimation would be like... 500?

What is the boost clock of 14400 anyway

[ashen spindle]

depends on your settings, resolution etc. best to check out youtube videos if you want accurate numbers for that since it can vary a lot

[tropic storm]

time to get a 500hz monitor then

[astral haven]

the thing to consider tho, is amds last "killer rumored product" turned out to be crossfire rx 480

[late grove]

4.7

nvm, avoid it.

[spare wedge]

Also rdna3 has an awful reset bug

[late grove]

Don't get that prebuild

Won't be as bad as 12400 but.. not that far ahead.

[gusty nexus]

Clickbait content is not trustworthy

[spare wedge]

But that’s a case where 99.99% of people won’t have

[tired cedar]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ZnNsz6

[tired cedar]

so is that a good $1700 build?

[balmy vector]

You could go air cooling

To save some cash

[ashen spindle]

rainbow6 for example over 450, csgo would get over 250 for example, you'll be fine for those games

[steep creek]

indeed especially with that cpu. air cooling will do just fine

[tired cedar]

ye and then maybe get a 4070ti if i save enough on some other stuff but im not sure if its really worth it

[late grove]

Look man remember how it was leaked for years that 4090 is gonna be twice as fast as 3090? While we did not get that exactly, I think 85% perf increase is close enough.
And so I knew for over a year that the 4090 performance jump is gonna be massive.

[tropic storm]

also, make sure everything fits before buying

[late grove]

And if you followed the right leakers you would also know that RDNA 3 is gonna be disappointing.

[tired cedar]

ye the only possible issue would be the AIO right? and i could just switch toa 240mm if it didnt fit?

[tropic storm]

I had to worry about ram clearance for my cpu cooler while still fitting in my case

[ashen spindle]

And so I knew for over a year
nobody knew for over a year what die the 4090 would end up using, if its fully enabled AD102 or not etc.

[tired cedar]

really? with how powerful it is for gaming i wouldve thought it would need better cooling

[balmy vector]

It doesnt use that much watts

[ashen spindle]

cpus are really efficent and aircooling is a lot better than you probably think

[steep creek]

7800x3d is quite efficient. you’ll be fine with air

[wild coyote]

Personally I'd take the arctic freezer cooling, but instead of 360mm. I'd take a 240

[neat lion]

450 fps on r6 are you insane its a 4060 and a i5 14400 how is that even possible

[wild coyote]

Just my opinion

[tired cedar]

yeah ive heard air cooling is better, i mean my 13600k runs at like 40-50 degrees with a deepcool ak620 digital

[umbral heron]

All AMD CPUs will be happy with air cooling

[ashen spindle]

if you play 1080p and low settings its basically just cpu bound, hence it depends on the settings

[tired cedar]

ah okay

[tired cedar]

alright ill re-do it then thx

[ashen spindle]

I have the 7800x3d and it uses much less power, aircooler is very much fit for it

[tropic storm]

also, partpicker should warn about size limitations

[tired cedar]

whats a good aircooler?

[gusty nexus]

I don't look at leaks, I've just saw how clickbait that channel was

Peerless Assassin

[balmy vector]

Peerless is classic

[tired cedar]

really? i thought it said that it didnt count physical limitations

[ashen spindle]

the last half of his name really tells you all about it...

[tropic storm]

I think it did when I was building a pc

[tired cedar]

thats what i was looking at tbh was just kinda worried since its a little cheap

[late grove]

You chose the worst "leaker" out there. What did you expect?

[tropic storm]

maybe it was looking at part compatability

[late grove]

[steep creek]

i just have an nhd15 because i’ve had it for years

peerless also pretty good i’ve heard

[tropic storm]

oh, I think I used the website I bought my cpu cooler from to determine if it would fit

[late grove]

@tired cedarhttps://www.msi.com/PC-Case/MAG-FORGE-321R-AIRFLOW

Is this case available in your region?

[umbral heron]

Yeah, price to perf ratio is insane
But in the end of the day it's just a block of alumininuminum with fan sticked to it

[tropic storm]

yeah the noctua website has stuff to make sure everything fits

[gusty nexus]

They're all the same, some random people inventing stuff to make people dream about not released products

[tropic storm]

my bad

[tired cedar]

$240 seems a bit excessive for a motherboard imo... and its EATX i kinda wanted ATX

[late grove]

Believe what you want.

[tired cedar]

idk im in the usa if that matters

[late grove]

If you say so. You can go with that MSI board, it's not that bad.

Oh right that 321R case cannot fit eatx boards

Hold on give me a minute.

[steep creek]

my next board will probably livemixer. in nederland orange

it’s quite nice for the price

[balmy vector]

Splatoon

[jaunty cedar]

hey guys, im aware socd is bannable on cs2, wondering if rappy snappy is also?

[ashen spindle]

#⏬│rappy_and_snappy

[tired cedar]

ye

socd is actually less detected i think but still both will get u kicked

[jaunty cedar]

damn

i know its unfair but damn was it nice

[tired cedar]

yeah

[steep creek]

feel free to keep discussing in #⏬│rappy_and_snappy

[jaunty cedar]

thank u mister boss man

[steep creek]

[jaunty cedar]

[late grove]

@tired cedarDo you mind the orange livemixer board?

[tired cedar]

I havent heard of that ill check it out now

[umbral heron]

Livemixer best board

[steep creek]

i love it

[tired cedar]

hmmmm

[steep creek]

there’s also a purple one

[balmy vector]

Big usb friend

[balmy vector]

That ones for intel iirc

[tired cedar]

i mean i'd definetely rather have black but if its a good enough deal i suppose it could be good

[tropic storm]

GAMER!

[steep creek]

ohh really

[balmy vector]

I think so

[late grove]

Yeah intel is purple

[steep creek]

ah

[tropic storm]

paint it 🙏

im sure the board will live

[wheat plume]

....who did modern art on a motherboard ????

[balmy vector]

Sorry i spilled my paint

[tired cedar]

ehhhh my friend is already inexpirienced enough its definetely better he doesnt take any sort of risk

[steep creek]

that’s what the board looks like

[tropic storm]

im joking btw, would never take that risk

[tired cedar]

wow $150 is a good deal for that board but the color kinda throws it off for me

[umbral heron]

[tropic storm]

you could always make a theme

[tired cedar]

Asrock and MSI are my favorite motherboard companies

[tropic storm]

orange case, orange cables, orange gpu

[tired cedar]

i mean i could ask him but im sure he'd just rather have full black with some rgb

[balmy vector]

Orange on the desk

[steep creek]

orange watch band

[tired cedar]

that'd probably just end up more expensive in the end

[tropic storm]

orange chair

[balmy vector]

Orange in the case

[steep creek]

orange role

[umbral heron]

Just make sure first thing you do is update UEFI with it

[tropic storm]

orange juice

[balmy vector]

Mmm tasty

[tropic storm]

orange juice cool it!

the pump will LOVE the pulp

[balmy vector]

Orange cooled system

[tired cedar]

wait why dont they make clear pump cables or wtv for AIO's?

[late grove]

@tired cedarSo yes or no on the orange board?

[balmy vector]

To hide the wires

[tired cedar]

i think ill stick with the black MSI one since its only like $10 more

[tired cedar]

oh yeah forgot

[tropic storm]

now I want to see an orange pc

with orange juice

[tired cedar]

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/thedestroyer_06/saved/8HyYWZ

im curious would this actually run anything?

[balmy vector]

Now were gaming

Runescape style

[tropic storm]

bit too much there bud

thats gonna make your house burn down from all that power

[tired cedar]

i know its crazy powerful

i wish pcpartpicker would let you list ebay prices so i dont have to manually enter them

[ashen spindle]

anything? yeah some things lol but its missing pretty important cpu instructions for games

[pale sigil]

@ashen spindleAny Laptop news?

[tired cedar]

?

[ashen spindle]

cpus have different instructions you can tell them to do, the old ones dont have them so they cant run the software that expects them

[tired cedar]

i mean my old pc had an i7-860 and it could at least launch most games

except cod

[ashen spindle]

then whatever you tried had a fallback or didnt need the newer options for the most part

[tropic storm]

should I get a mousepad? been running bare desk for years now

[tired cedar]

i mean the gpu was a gtx 1060 6gb so

[ashen spindle]

not relevant to if your cpu can or cant run a game

[tired cedar]

i read ujr msg wrong mb

[tired cedar]

yeah i misunderstood

[balmy vector]

Probably

[tropic storm]

:C

its gotta be orange

[tired cedar]

bruh

[tropic storm]

im being so fr

[balmy vector]

I mean artisan has an orange pad

I think the zero has that color

[tired cedar]

how 💀

[tropic storm]

I used to have a small mousepad and it would always slip off my desk so i just stopped using it

corsair mousepad was not doin it

[tired cedar]

how big is ur desk

[pale sigil]

turns out generating a dhparam key on a rasberry pi takes years

[tropic storm]

big enough to fit a pc and 3 monitors side by side

[tired cedar]

is it l shaped/curved or just flat

[tropic storm]

just flat

just need a big mousepad

not a small square one

[tired cedar]

so like 48x24?

[balmy vector]

Lethal gaming gear has stuff, artisan, theres too many mousepad places to buy from

[tired cedar]

doesnt artisan only sell square ones? correct me if im wrong im very uninformed

[balmy vector]

They have biig squares

[late grove]

@tired cedarhttps://pcpartpicker.com/list/c4m2pB

Alright here is the build then. I added this gigabyte board as for only 5$ more you get 3 m.2 slots and from what i found, gigabyte AMD boards have much lower boot time than any other brand.

[steep creek]

can ask mango to eat the sides such that it becomes a circle

[balmy vector]

[tired cedar]

so that msi case is available in the USA?

[late grove]

Yes

u could go with that if u want a real big rectangular one

[tropic storm]

woah now, already blew 200 on a wooting keyboard today, a $50 mousepads pushin it

[tired cedar]

i mean if u want 48x24 $50 is pretty standard tbh

[tropic storm]

ill find smthn someday

[tired cedar]

does it need to be that big or could you go with a slightly smaller one

[neat lion]

about my pc i just saw online and its a 4060 and an i5 14400 F is that better or worse than the i5 14400

[tropic storm]

as long as my keyboard can hold it in place 🤷‍♂️

[late grove]

F CPUs are the same as normal ones but with no integrated graphics.

[tired cedar]

i mean that same mousepad in 35x16 is only $25 so you could get that size

[narrow breach]

At that point, just wait till u can afford to spend that price, not many high quality mousepads at that size

[neat lion]

so will it make a big difference or nah

[late grove]

No

[ashen spindle]

no difference in performance at all for the cpu

[late grove]

But that CPU sucks anyway so I don't recommend you get that PC regardless.

[tropic storm]

yeah, just hurts to spend alot in one month, next month is mousepad month!

[tired cedar]

the case comes with 4 fans right?

[late grove]

Yes

[neat lion]

but i just want to upgrade from my 1050 and i7 8700

[tired cedar]

and should i buy an air cooler and 2 more fans for the top or stick with the AIO

[late grove]

You can build a much better PC for that money.

Or a similarly performing PC for much less money.

[tired cedar]

real

[neat lion]

like which one

[tropic storm]

building is stressfull, especially if its your first time and nobody is there to help you
