[astral haven]

Also, it is legitimately possible that Apple gets an exception because of how big they are.

[dull hollow]

that is pretty much 2x pricing before the storage upgrades

[astral haven]

I mean, my organization pays zero for our iPhones.

But base price of 16e is 600 not over a grand

[dull hollow]

they increased the price for the normal 16? thought it was still 700, but its 800

[astral haven]

16e is 600

[dull hollow]

yeah

[somber coral]

is xg2431 still a good 240hz?my budget is right around there

[plush stirrup]

I usually look at rtings to answer such questions for myself: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/viewsonic/xg2431

[neon prawn]

yeah it is quite expensive tho

[inner zinc]

have yall been getting constant windows updates?

[trim crane]

TakingXT, right click your desktop bg and click on display settings, scroll down and click advanced display settings

the monitor name should be there

I have free time before work so I am able to help out if you want

[dull hollow]

this is all it says lol but dw about it

im not too stressed about getting it to 144hz

[trim crane]

did you click the display adapter properties for the ultragear

or does that small window not ahow anything

[dull hollow]

????

[trim crane]

You cannot be serious

[dull hollow]

oh we are so serious

[tawny badge]

anyone got an opinion on what you would consider to be the wooting of mice? (aka like, good asf and just like a no brainer)

[steady sail]

Any shape that fits u perfectly

[magic minnow]

Lies

The perfect mouse is the Viper V3 Pro

Whaaa Easter switchy

[dull hollow]

me when sloptech enters the chat:

[trim crane]

imo super excited for the Pathfinder by Orbitalworks

[magic minnow]

Haven’t seen that one

That final meme

Okay this is nice I love when a mouse has a pinky and ring finger rest

[trim crane]

its so sickkk

and you can do 3D prints too

[magic minnow]

I hope it’s all magnesium

[digital cliff]

i would not be able to use that

[somber coral]

can someone explain qd oled and normal oled to me please

okkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk so oled is still the best?

dos AOC still make oleds btw

dont they burn in faster

i cant find a single AOC 240hz oled

optimum say i buy

nevermind bro the second i say that theres 3 in stock

im looking for like 27"

[devout raptor]

https://youtu.be/6VjYFdHMC3A?si=tmg5LyeWIZgzMHCG

[somber coral]

oh wait theres two options

[devout raptor]

all this was happening to EK in silence??

[somber coral]

this one?

i found it

dayum 830$

[devout raptor]

is that aud?

no way its that much

i thought oleds ared constantly on sale for like 200 bucks

oops I meant 600

i started thinking about saomething different while typing

actually

1440p 165 ips has become very affordable

not always but for a while

it wasnt long ago when they were still in oled price territory

my monitor journey was pretty linear

i went from 60hz tn to 144hz tn to 240hz va to 1440p ips to oled

and every monitor felt like an upgrade

1080p VA to 1440p ips was probably the biggest upgrade

damm

wow all the sales on oleds ended

usually theres some decent ones going all the time

[somber coral]

I’m Canadian

[devout raptor]

Siemens CEO dead in a helicopter crash, what happens next?

[analog sinew]

they hire me

[rain quiver]

Do i need my interfaces software on or nah

The minifusecontrolcenter shit

It says its high impact so

[pale sigil]

This monitor always taunts me

[nimble arch]

The 240Hz refresh is out soon anyway

Which is probably why that's so cheap

[vagrant reef]

Finding a 240hz 1440p monitor rn at a decent price is horrific

[distant tapir]

Who here is gonna get this

[old marlin]

damn

it's at 640€ here

still looks insane

[real patio]

hey guys i just spiled liquid on my keyboard and he aint working, i instantly try to clean it deep and dry with tissu and alcohol. Does someone know the wooting policy about support ? do they repair the gears if we pay ? or do i need to buy another :'(

[analog sinew]

if its dead you need to buy a replacement pcb, contact support for that

[reef patrol]

Did you open it up? Or just wipe it off?

[vagrant reef]

Bro $150 for a PCB 💀

[distant tapir]

Well it has a casing and scroll wheel. It's a fully functional mouse

With good specs

[analog sinew]

this weight brainrot is so odd

[distant tapir]

How is it brainrot

[analog sinew]

cause 20gs doesnt matter unless you have endstage muscular dystrophy

[leaden kiln]

I hope pulsar makes the next x2f prototype lighter

[nimble arch]

I’d kill for the MX Master 3S with Lightspeed and a gaming sensor

Otherwise it’s 125Hz polling rate over Logi Bolt

[leaden kiln]

should be lighter than the x2cl hopefully

[leaden kiln]

mm 150g

that's not a 3s but uh close enough

[nimble arch]

I specifically like the shape for longer sessions that aren’t super try hard

[leaden kiln]

I could see it being nice but I use the wrong grip so I just end up hating it, I haven't tried the 3s specifically but I imagine it's not super far off of older models

[nimble arch]

I have a Master 3 which is the same shape, I think, that I only ever use with my work laptop. It’s a nice peripheral but I’d notice the low polling rate if I ever got a 240Hz OLED.

[real pewter]

I plug my keyboard in and no power

[rough osprey]

ye they said they can make it 25g

[distant tapir]

I kinda want to buy a Wooting now. Maybe I will when summer vacation starts

umu

It's cheaper than I remembered. Maybe because I chose zinc alloy last time

[analog sinew]

yeah probably

[unkempt lake]

I love that thing for work

[keen steppe]

guys which case fan looks better

split between them

so 2?

The 1st ones have an LCD screen on them so idk what one to pic

tbh i like 2 more

but the LCD screens on 1....

[steady sail]

bc everything needs a screen nowdays

soo when finalmeme centerpiece mouse

[vapid ruin]

Wooting needs a screen to stay competitive

[keen steppe]

temps....

and stuff...

cool gifs...

But i need my dopamine fix 😦

[vapid ruin]

Just get a secondary screen

It's also useful for discord and such

[crimson wigeon]

Yeah maybe these days, back in the day the G15 screen was mighty useful when a crappy game took over all output and input and locked up

[ashen spindle]

safe the money for the useless tiny screens and get a big one or idk buy food from the saved money if you want dopamine

[vapid ruin]

Yesh

Use money to get highest rated cooler if you still wanna spend a lot on cooler

[keen steppe]

oh

Fairs. Thanks for the feedback guys i appricate it

I do not want anime women

The RGB on the LCD ones are too flashy anways

i like minimalist/subtle

hmmmm

I like the lights but i prefer one colour only

Tbf not getting the LCD fans has saved me 70 great british pounds

[dull hollow]

you can def get some used monitors for that price or a little more for a cheap 2nd monitor

[wheat plume]

:/ how do I remove this everytime I open Chrome for the first time?

idk how to make the password blank

rm ~/.local/share/keyrings/* what about this command?

o..

[vagrant reef]

If you use a blank password then it won't bother you

[inner zinc]

I’m once again asking if anyone has been getting constant windows updates and that means

[vagrant reef]

Naw, if you do, it probably means windows wants to update

[inner zinc]

I have been updating it though

Any time I update it the next time I turn in on it has another update

It’s very annoying

[gusty kiln]

hmmm not sure how I feel about One UI 7

[sharp badger]

Oh right that's releasing soon™️

[gusty kiln]

I got it last night and been messing around with it

[sharp badger]

Ok better/worse than UI 6?

[keen steppe]

My pc is combusting

[analog sinew]

nice

[keen steppe]

😋

Any quick fixes?

[sudden imp]

If anyone’s cpu is overheating can you put an egg on it

I’m hungry

[keen steppe]

Does this work with fire?

[dull hollow]

explain "combusting pc"

[halcyon moss]

It's about the same.. Some weird style choices but nothing mayor

[unkempt lake]

https://youtu.be/SWTot0wwaEU?si=tuR5aG8ez2screIh

[sharp badger]

Should get it on Monday but will have to see if that stays true, will be interesting to see

[gusty kiln]

the design looks more "childish"? function wise it's mostly the same but with all the AI features that they talked about last year

I do kinda like that you can resize the icon now, bigger is nice for my S24 Ultra

[turbid nymph]

guys, i have a 3060 and i want to upgrade my graphics card to start playing in 1440p more smoothly; so i was planning to buy a 5070ti but i've heard more recently that this is not the best moment to buy a gpu bc of the overpricing. So when do you reccomend me to buy the new gpu?

[gusty kiln]

some region prices are coming down

[turbid nymph]

yeah i thought on that gpu too, but when should i buy them??

[gusty kiln]

at most 700USD equivalent for a 9070XT imo

and that is for a nicer model

[turbid nymph]

9700xt performs better than a 5070ti?

[gusty kiln]

nah it's like 5% slower on average

it's cuz 5070tis over 900+ atm at most places

[turbid nymph]

the 5070ti's price would come down in some moment?

[gusty kiln]

not sure because nvidia have no real incentive to sell wafers to gamers

[turbid nymph]

so what nvidia gpu you reccomend me? a 4070?

really? wow

[gusty kiln]

the only thing that prevented me from getting a 7900xt/xtx was the idle power draw, but that doesn't exist with the 9070xt

[sharp badger]

Ok 🧑‍🏫

[turbid nymph]

I hadn't realized how much AMD GPUs were improving.

and there will be a 9080 or 9090 or something like that?

in the future

[gusty kiln]

unfortunately no

gotta wait next gen for higher end from AMD

[fathom venture]

Bump

[turbid nymph]

what? so they just win the gen with just one gpu??

[halcyon moss]

Midrange, turned out the be fairly high range hah

[turbid nymph]

what happened to nvidia lol

[fathom venture]

They were always like that?

[halcyon moss]

Ai

[turbid nymph]

so the last good nvidia gen was 3000

[fathom venture]

Yea but nvidia was always pricey and the “budget” options are absolute garbage

[halcyon moss]

They can dedicate the limited wafers they can get to Ai chips, which pays 10x more

NVIDIA is still king at raytracing though, and local Ai stuff

[fathom venture]

Getting my 5090 soon😋

[turbid nymph]

i was thinking about that, like a 9070xt performs slighty worse than a 5080

[fathom venture]

Eh nobody uses rt really

[balmy vector]

I swear im getting dejavu reading this conversation

Nothing out of the ordinary

[halcyon moss]

I want to play cyberpunk with path tracing.. But not in a 2k gpu budget

[fathom venture]

Fsr4 matches dlss3 I think

[turbid nymph]

I don't play AAA games, but what's all this FSR and DLSS 4.0 stuff?

[fathom venture]

Don’t worry about that

[balmy vector]

And frame gen

[turbid nymph]

but dlss wasn't a type of antialiasing?

[fathom venture]

Do u have a pc rn? If so what gpu do u have?

[turbid nymph]

why have they inserted ai frame gen to that?

[turbid nymph]

are you talking to me?

[fathom venture]

Yh what games do u play and what are your current specs

[halcyon moss]

Tbh, it's quite impressive and most of the time the difference not that noticeable.

[turbid nymph]

i have a 3060 and i usually play fn, valo, cs2, and recently i've start thinking on buying more AAA games, bc i got bored of "competitive games"

[halcyon moss]

Especially because it often disables taa

[fathom venture]

U don’t need a new gpu bro

What aaa do u want to play

Then u need a new gpu

[turbid nymph]

but when i started to look how the AAA games perform (like black myth wukong) i saw a really poor performance

[halcyon moss]

Turn some setting down

And you'll be fine

[turbid nymph]

i've heard that game is a little bit bad optimized

[turbid nymph]

to play in 1440p?

hmm

[fathom venture]

Depends on your budget tho if you’d ask me what’s the best possible gpu just get the 5090

[fathom venture]

I didn’t read the entire thing you do need a new gpu

[turbid nymph]

no thanks haha

[fathom venture]

What’s your budget

[turbid nymph]

like i'm from latam that gpu costs arround 4000 usd

[halcyon moss]

Not sure about black myth wukon, but there are plenty of options.. Turn down settings enable dlss

[fathom venture]

Idk I need one and it’s the best possible option if you’re ready to pay the price

[turbid nymph]

for the entire pc build, like 2000usd

[fathom venture]

Same here lol

But company pays for like half of it so it works for me

[turbid nymph]

i'll try, but i dont like that dlss stuff bc the game start to see very blured

[fathom venture]

No I actually do need a 5090 lol

It’s not entirely for gaming tho?

Oh fair

[turbid nymph]

yeah i don't think i would need a 5090

[halcyon moss]

It's either playable or spend a ton of money's :p

[fathom venture]

Yeah honestly just go with a 4070tis if u want nvidia and go 9070/9070xt if amd

[turbid nymph]

but i was thinking in upgrading to a 3080 that i can buy it for 700usd aprox

[fathom venture]

Bro no please

What the fuck

[turbid nymph]

hahaha

nah the 9070xt its in my country at 2000usd

yeah xd

[fathom venture]

Well 4070tis and 9070xt are almost the same price and the perf diff is very little

But 2000$?

Here it goes up to 1.2 max

Just get a 5080 bro

2000$ seems a lot

Nah u won’t tho

[turbid nymph]

xd

[fathom venture]

Bro

[turbid nymph]

2199999 pesos argentinos

= 2000

[fathom venture]

That’s using your currency no?

Bro is that even a legit website

[turbid nymph]

they're pesos ARG that equals to 2000 usd lol

[fathom venture]

wtf is 9070 16gb xt

😭😭😭😭😭

[turbid nymph]

it's like the amazon from arg

[fathom venture]

Ok don’t get it from Amazon then

[turbid nymph]

from latam i would say

[fathom venture]

They usually do have inflated prices here too

[turbid nymph]

nah the tech stores are basiclly the same

[fathom venture]

Nah nah customs will fist him

[turbid nymph]

taxes and shipment issues with the customs xdddd

[fathom venture]

Oh wait

I can tell you how you can do it

But delete the messages since it’s a dodgy method

Nah what?

[turbid nymph]

the delivery truck is sometimes not necessary because most of the time foreign products don't even make it through customs and most likely that product will be dissapeared.

[fathom venture]

Bro now that’s just bs, the issue will be charges you need to pay

[turbid nymph]

yeah ik i was just joking

but seriously, sometimes the products are stopped in the customs and they are never seen again

hmm yeah but yk, in argentina the "Job of customs" is a fucking joke

like, they are so arbitrary

[fathom venture]

No, they just charge import price which CAN BE RIDICULOUS

Idk how much do they charge? @turbid nymph

[turbid nymph]

hmm not really, I seem to remember that for products under $4000, it's 21% of the total price of the product, so it's not much compared to what it was in past years.

sorry if i struggle to answer i have to use the translator when i use words that idk

[fathom venture]

No issues

You can get it from the us then

Well tbh bro it depends on your build

What cpu motherboard ram storage everything

TvT

Whenever I play valo, the game looks so choppy for some reason, basically let’s say I looked at a wall while moving, the wall looks like it’s got boxes of pixel on the screen, I’m actually not able to explain this right, but is there any reason that’s happening? it looks some boxes of pixels moved towards another box of pixel and the game looks botchy as hell, well it’s not the entire screen, it’s just a few places where this happens and no it’s not a constant issue, it just happens whenever I try hitting flicks/move my camera angle(be it slow or fast) the issue only happens when I move the camera angle not normally, is there any reason for this? And is there a way I can fix this?

Someone help me TvT

I did use true stretch before but no it’s native res

Huh

Why would I use that on comp games?

😭😭😭

Nah nothings turned on

Is it my monitor? It’s a tn panel 400hz zowie monitor(I tried turning off dyac as well)

[turbid nymph]

i think you have screen tearing??

[fathom venture]

1920x1080 res

[fathom venture]

Nah

I get around 800-900 fps on all low

That’s not the issue

Is it the panel?

I did try that

When recording the screen it just works fine

But I don’t notice such issues on dm

So I’m not sure

Only happens on comp games

Honestly I’m switching to qd oled in a few weeks so will that issue be resolved, there’s no way I’m spending 1k on a monitor to get this kind of stutter(yes even on valorant)

Might be over for me

It’s like some parts of the screen just look hella pixelated while everything else looks fine with maybe a weird colouring too

Yea ngl idk much abt monitors

So basically, I turn on dyac premium

Fps1

Black equaliser to 10

That isn’t even an option

Yea on dm it looks pretty normal

[short mist]

Just recently got my wooting and notice my rapid trigger setting is not checked and cant save the profile

[fathom venture]

What even is overdrive and why do I not have that option TvT

So do you think the new monitor will work just fine

Tried it

Doesn’t do anything

Legit lost a round a round because of that

There are 4 options, dyac, brightness, fps1, black equalizer, vibrant(idk I need to check later) and that’s it I think

I choose fps1/gamer3 but tried them all, makes 0 difference

I need to start a comp for that TvT and it’s 1 am here and I am 14 rr away from immo1

You can’t tbh

Everything is really nice on the range

[dull hollow]

thats odd

it happens on your screen yet it doesnt record it, only happens in comp and not any other game mode?

[fathom venture]

ICL I can’t be bothered with this dogshit tn panel bs im going oled bro

The colours look so so ass as well

[fathom venture]

No

VN?

Isn’t it TN

Or is it VN

Isn’t VA different?

Yea idk honestly

True

[marsh pewter]

TN is horrible

[fathom venture]

Honestly I went zowie due to the fact that every pro use it

I’m so fucking retarded bro

[marsh pewter]

sure it has good response times but it looks like dogshit

[fathom venture]

I does have better motion clarity but response time? Isn’t oled faster

Bro icl even the performance isn’t something which will give you a comp advantage

It just feels smooth

[marsh pewter]

TN is the fastest LCD panel type

yeah

and viewing angles

[fathom venture]

Yeah ngl I don’t understand why don’t the pros switch to oled

Mostly

[dull hollow]

its expensive

[marsh pewter]

money probably

oled is still pretty expensive, but besides that, they likely get paid quite well to promote TN monitors

[fathom venture]

It’s the same price as the zowie bro

Idt that’s an issue for people who literally do that for a living

[ashen spindle]

they are used to it, seeing higher hz=better is easier than explaining pixel response time, the sponsored options are almost always TN etc.

[dull hollow]

[fathom venture]

I’m actually so retarded

[dull hollow]

in what world is this a legit comparison

the walls arent even the same color

[marsh pewter]

ts pmo 🥀

[dull hollow]

and yet the color for KJ is washed out in the zoomed in photo?

[marsh pewter]

they added a cool color filter and said "look oled looks so much worse!"

[dull hollow]

they mixed up where to place the zoomed in pictures

[fathom venture]

And the guy on yt who said 400hz is considerably smoother should be in prison, I have a friend who’s like radiant from the past few seasons and said that he doesn’t feel any difference and I had the same reaction, it’s got to be placebo

[dull hollow]

the entire background of the fast tn image is washed

[marsh pewter]

its even stranger when you notice oled reference literally has better colors than the tn

but for some reason when its zoomed in it looks horrible

[wheat plume]

Where tf does Bazzite put the Wooting udev rules?! they arent in the place the Wootility guide says xd

[fathom venture]

Ehhh so you’re telling me 400hz is considerably better? I’m quite slow ngl

[wheat plume]

Nah, Bazzite setup the udev rules for me

I just dont know where they are xd

[fathom venture]

But I genuinely didn’t feel a difference between 240 and 400 in terms of smoothness

[wheat plume]

Clearly yes, cause Wootility works just fine

[umbral heron]

/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/?

[ashen spindle]

more hz on the otherwise same response times is always better

you might not be able to completely feel every extra hz but its not a hallucination

[dull hollow]

its diminishing returns, the biggest change is 60hz -> 120+

[wheat plume]

cause I wanted to show someone else where the file goes and found it wasnt there for me

[fathom venture]

I’m not saying it’s theoretically not better, I’m saying it’s practically pointless, just like 1000hz vs 8000hz on a keyboard

[wheat plume]

O.o so many in here wow

[fathom venture]

Atleast for me

[somber coral]

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/2LHvv4 this is like a 3000 cad build for my brother who wants to play mhw and helldivers any advice?

[ashen spindle]

no its not pointless at all, its just different how people perceive it

[wheat plume]

yeh xd

[dull hollow]

that 9070xt price is insane bro wtf

[somber coral]

1100?

[fathom venture]

64 gigs lol what? Does he work or only game?

[ashen spindle]

get a cheaper air cooler and not a 180$ AiO, you can memory for cheaper

[wheat plume]

🤔

[dull hollow]

yeah

[ashen spindle]

its CAD

so over msrp but not insane

[umbral heron]

Default package ones go int /usr/lib folder, so user can make their own in /etc one, because ones in /etc will always have priority

[plush stirrup]

Warranty on arctic might be good though

[wheat plume]

ooohhh!!!

[somber coral]

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/vjKPh7 ok i changed it

960

[dull hollow]

idk why its labeling it as usd

[fathom venture]

Huhhhh but 64 gigs and Samsung 990 pro is pointless unless he streams or whatever

[somber coral]

its jut 30 usd for the key

[ashen spindle]

top right shoudl still show canada as location

[somber coral]

i think i put the price in as 30 when i was still in usd

[marsh pewter]

he wont need 64gb of ram (or even that expensive of ram), and you could save over half the price of the AIO if you just get an air cooler.

[fathom venture]

Wait a620m?

[marsh pewter]

does he already have a computer with windows?

[fathom venture]

Bro what

[somber coral]

nah hes using a mac rn

[marsh pewter]

I see. regardless, you could still get a windows key for way cheaper than that.

[somber coral]

ok arnd 30$

[plush stirrup]

I didn't say anything about that, though, I'm a power user myself so 64GB is pretty much normal to me, and I always go samsung SSD's myself due to bad experiences with crucial (plugged one in, motherboard didn't post anymore until I unplugged it, not risking that on an expensive build :x)

[fathom venture]

Hold on why are we not talking about the motherboard

On a 9800x3d

[fathom venture]

Mb I tagged the wrong person

[somber coral]

according to my brother "i need over 40gb of ram im running out of memory"

[fathom venture]

Leave him bro

[marsh pewter]

yeah- no he doesnt

[dull hollow]

how does he know if he only has a mac

[fathom venture]

Just kick him out

Or sum

[somber coral]

i modded it to have 40gb

[plush stirrup]

64GB RAM at high clock speeds is expensive, so for the amount I'm not sure if it's really expensive but it looks normal to me in price, though being from the EU my prices include taxes 😛

[dull hollow]

what is he doing with the mac

[fathom venture]

Nah the motherboard is honestly pissing me off ngl

[somber coral]

idk my dad bought him it

[somber coral]

what 's wrong it

[marsh pewter]

16gb is probably enough for gaming alone, 32gb is plenty

[fathom venture]

TvT just get a b650m or x670 bro

[dull hollow]

as in game or work, if the pc is mostly for gaming all he needs is 32gbs of ram

[somber coral]

why does it matter

[fathom venture]

Not these days, 32 is better now

[fathom venture]

Eh Wdym your motherboard chipset does matter

Just get a 7600x+4070s build imo bro

Bros going for the best parts in the market TvT

[marsh pewter]

unless your brother constantly has a ridiculous amount of chrome tabs open, 32gb of ram should be enough

[somber coral]

ok b650 then?\

[fathom venture]

Yea works

Depends on the usage tho

[somber coral]

he does have a ridiculous amount of chrome tabs open at all times

[fathom venture]

Bro what

Nah honestly what

[somber coral]

like RIDICULOUS

[fathom venture]

No he’s messing around

[somber coral]

i have lefss then 20 at all times and hes reaching 60 i think

[fathom venture]

You don’t need 64 gigs unless you stream

[dull hollow]

how the fuck

[marsh pewter]

then more ram isnt going fix how he uses his computer

[fathom venture]

Or do something productive

[plush stirrup]

rookie numbers :3

[somber coral]

idk the amount number but much higher then me

[fathom venture]

I use 64 and trust me you don’t utilize it all

[somber coral]

idgaf man the budget can fix 64gb right

[fathom venture]

And 990 pro is waste of money again

[somber coral]

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/7dcZjn new mobo also

[fathom venture]

Just go crucial p3

[dull hollow]

what are we doing with so many tabs bro close some

[somber coral]

wtf is wrong with 990 pro its fast asf

[fathom venture]

U don’t need that

[somber coral]

9999 tabs of tentacle p-

[fathom venture]

If u want fast just go t705 bro

Gen5

[plush stirrup]

For future use! 😛

[plush stirrup]

ay don't expose me like this, not here! 👀

[marsh pewter]

he's going to have the same issue even with 64gb of ram lmao. save some money, go with 32, tell him to not keep so many tabs open.

[fathom venture]

990 pro is just overpriced

[somber coral]

ill stick with my 260$ 990 pro

[dull hollow]

i just got this the other day for my lil bro

[fathom venture]

Crazy work right here

[somber coral]

can i be your lil bro

[dull hollow]

he doesnt need a 990 pro and neither does yours

[somber coral]

are you taking applications for another sibling

[somber coral]

yes he does like lowk

[fathom venture]

Bro what TvT

[somber coral]

what other one do i buy him then

[dull hollow]

tell me how youre gonna feel the difference between 7000MB/S over 7400MB/S

[fathom venture]

9800x3d itself is outrageous

[somber coral]

placebo maxing

[simple pilot]

14000mb/s

[fathom venture]

Is it for you or your brother

[simple pilot]

[fathom venture]

No lol

[dull hollow]

https://tenor.com/view/hmm-suspect-gif-22611582

[somber coral]

my brother

[marsh pewter]

honestly this guy is either trolling or literally just does not care about daddy's money and doesnt want our input

[fathom venture]

Frfr

[marsh pewter]

good luck man 👍

[dull hollow]

not a good time to buy

[somber coral]

._.

[plush stirrup]

Nothing is good to buy atm 🥲

[fathom venture]

Going a620m then saying placebo maxing is insane 😭😭😭😭

[somber coral]

i changed it calm tf down

[fathom venture]

But-

I’m calm tho?

[dull hollow]

your 9800x3d is $20 more expensive than where im at

[fathom venture]

7600x works fine tbh

Nobody really needs the x3d cpu

(I definitely didn’t get it)

[dull hollow]

(he has one)

[plush stirrup]

843CAD / 608 USD where I'm at 😛

[fathom venture]

(I definitely don’t)

[marsh pewter]

your brother does not need a $3000 build for MHW and HD2 😭

[dull hollow]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-stare-big-eyes-gif-26476010

[marsh pewter]

especially for a first gaming PC

[dull hollow]

USD

[plush stirrup]

yep 🥲 though that includes 21% taxes but still

[fathom venture]

9800x3d for a kid is crazy work bro🙏🏻

[dull hollow]

why not just a 7800x3d

[somber coral]

hes like 18 . . .

[fathom venture]

Nah not worth it

[fathom venture]

Tell him to get a job then wtf lol

[somber coral]

uhhhhhh i dont actually know

[somber coral]

im not the one buying just building

[fathom venture]

Not worth it by any means

[fathom venture]

Why x3d tho?

Just go 7700x

Or maybe 7600x

Depending on the usage

Because on 1440p you need a good gpu not cpu

And on comp games you’ll get like 300+ fps on 7700x

[plush stirrup]

Depends on the game, in CS2 iirc you need a good cpu for high resolution

[dull hollow]

i got a 7700x and 9070xt

[fathom venture]

Eh 7700x works fine

[fathom venture]

You don’t need 900 fps to be good bro

[dull hollow]

CS cant hit 360 last i played, val and OW2 are fine

[somber coral]

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/KsfsPJ this look better?

[fathom venture]

Works perfectly fine

X3d is lowkey a pointless concept unless u really go high end

For mid range builds 9800x3d is just crazy

[somber coral]

i also have a 13600kf and wanted a 9070xt too no problems there right

[fathom venture]

Works fine

[plush stirrup]

haha same it's either my ram speed or cpu, nothing I can fix without throwing an absurd amount of money at it, but it's stable and doesn't drop below 165Hz of my monitor so it's fine 😄

[marsh pewter]

naw man I need that sweet sweet x3d cache

[dull hollow]

x3d on sale rn is the same price as 7700x not on sale :p

[fathom venture]

All low?

[somber coral]

aint gonna lie i want a 9070xt and a 240hz oled

[dull hollow]

yeah, tho i havent really played or test it more throughly

[somber coral]

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/KsfsPJ no one has a problem with this list right

[dull hollow]

smokes kill the framerate in CS2

[somber coral]

hes gonna be on 2560x1440p btw

[fathom venture]

Honestly bro what do u need 360 fps for? You’re still bad regardless some guy with 60 fps might just fold us

[dull hollow]

i can watch myself die in 6x the refreshrate and still say how

[plush stirrup]

Doesn't impact me, mainly because my GPU isn't fully loaded due to something limiting it I guess 😄

[somber coral]

the one sweat with a temu keyboard and mouse bundle witha decade old 60hz boutta shoot my head off

[fathom venture]

7700x works perfectly fine with this build ngl 9800x3d gives you like 600 FPS which is pointless

[somber coral]

i have a wooting to strafe into my enemy's bullets faster

[fathom venture]

Eh I think I’m good(definitely not lying)

[somber coral]

i have a 7800x3d now

no one has a problem with this right

[fathom venture]

That’s just like 60 bucks cheaper no?

[fathom venture]

Nobody has a problem with anything bro it’s your build not ours🫠

[dull hollow]

most games at 1440p need a better gpu (which means overpaying for an ngreedia card) anyways

[somber coral]

different cpu, ssd

[fathom venture]

That’s what I’m saying

Unless u game on 1080 just get a good cpu and a decent gpu

[plush stirrup]

I mean AMD uses 16GB of vram in cs for no reason xD

[fathom venture]

And now this guy might just go for a 5090 bro icl

[fathom venture]

Ehhhh whattt???

[plush stirrup]

me playing cs, though with my lots of tabs open in the background, but it's a lot of vram usage 😄

[ashen spindle]

no it allocates that much vram, because its unused otherwise, doesnt mean it needs that much

allocated!=used

[fathom venture]

Honestly

[plush stirrup]

It didn't do that on my 3090 + why would it allocate shared gpu memory?

[fathom venture]

@somber coral why not go 5080+7700x

That’s a good build right there

[dull hollow]

5080 resell market prices:

[ashen spindle]

because reading out accurate vram usage is not super simple so task manager grossly voersimplifies it

[somber coral]

that is why

[ashen spindle]

just like how cpu usage in task manager is also fake

[somber coral]

i am NOT getting a 5080 for msrp

[ashen spindle]

since that can be above 100% lol

[fathom venture]

Tf are these prices bro

I can get it for like 1.4

[dull hollow]

thats still a lot for a 5080

[fathom venture]

Well in my region the msrp is 1.2

[somber coral]

guys do i upgrade to ddr5 as well

[dull hollow]

yowzers

[somber coral]

im rocking 32gb 3600mhz rn

[fathom venture]

On a 7800x3d?

[dull hollow]

if you have a 7800x3d you should already be using ddr5

[fathom venture]

Yeah

[plush stirrup]

I've never seen my CPU usage go above 100%

[somber coral]

i have a 13600kf

[dull hollow]

oh wait nvm i got confused

[fathom venture]

Huh

I swear you said u have a 7800x3d

[somber coral]

nah

[fathom venture]

Nvm

[dull hollow]

he swapped the 9800x3d -> 7800x3d

[ashen spindle]

well it can, and also below 100% could be max usage because its related to the baseclock and isnt showing cpu load

[fathom venture]

How’s that “have” TvT

[somber coral]

i have 16tb of storage though

[ashen spindle]

so take these task manager numbers with big grains of salt

[dull hollow]

?????

[fathom venture]

Hdd

In 2025

[dull hollow]

bro

[somber coral]

big drive is just for storing photos and videos and shit

[fathom venture]

Are you like too rich or something bro?

[somber coral]

i know im not using half the drives

at all i am aware of that fact

[somber coral]

im still on a tn panel lmao

i might get a 9070xt and an oled

[fathom venture]

Zowie?

I use one asw it’s so fucking bad

[somber coral]

no koorui 1440p lmao

my entire life ive been on tn

[fathom venture]

Im getting a 360hz qd oled 1440p

[fathom venture]

And your brother gets a cpu which is probably worth your entire setup

Crazy

[dull hollow]

alieanware or samsung?

[fathom venture]

Msi

[dull hollow]

ah

[fathom venture]

Woled feels a bit off to me idk

[plush stirrup]

I mean yeah, 24GB of RAM is reserved for something task manager doesn't show me 😛

[somber coral]

hes 18 so this is basically his grad gift lmao

[dull hollow]

well AW and Samsung has the same display but thats not the point
im pretty sure theyre both qdoled

[fathom venture]

No I’m just saying in general lol

[dull hollow]

ah okay 😅

[dull hollow]

how much was it?

[fathom venture]

I have a 9800x3d bro trust me its just a waste of money, people might argue but it gives you much better performance, yea sure it does but realistically its pointless unless you for like a really high end build

[fathom venture]

I still didn’t get it, but I’m planning to

It’s around 700$ I think, I need to check though

[dull hollow]

thats not bad

[fathom venture]

Yea

The 480hz is like 1200

Woled

[dull hollow]

my oled, g60sd (also 360hz) is 700 on sale rn i dunno if it is for you

[fathom venture]

I already own a 4K 240hz but it’s a bit too big for valo so I use it as a 2nd monitor, I play single player games on that tho

[somber coral]

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/yB6cVF

[fathom venture]

Tn looks so ass against that 😭😭😭😭

I’m so fucking brain dead

[somber coral]

its ifne you can just mail me one of the monitors

[fathom venture]

Eh

You can just search it up no?

Because there are so many options u get

[dull hollow]

a 4k monitor as a 2nd display is diabolical

[fathom venture]

But I do use that for other games

Honestly idk what to do with the zowie monitor

Eh I’ll probably just sell it

[dull hollow]

sell it to some 14 year old poor soul who thinks theyre the next shroud

[fathom venture]

It’s technically not 2nd display tho, it’s like the main mrs I fw and the other monitor is like the side chick

[fathom venture]

That’s exactly what I’m going to do 😋

@somber coral Ay bro do u need a 400hz monitor it’s just so fucking good

It’s better than oled

[dull hollow]

[somber coral]

JUST LIKE ME FR

[fathom venture]

Perfectly pairs with the 9800x3d

[somber coral]

ill pay you 30c and some popeyes

[dull hollow]

looks like we got a deal going on here

[somber coral]

maybe'

[fathom venture]

I paid around 2k for that but ykw since it’s second hand and I feel a bit bad because you’re already spending so much I can do 1200(free delivery only for you)

[somber coral]

aw hell nah imma just buy 240hz oled

[fathom venture]

It’s better than oled trust

400hz

[somber coral]

will i notice a difference between 8400mhz and 7200mhz and 6400mhz in my ram

[fathom venture]

CPU?

[somber coral]

13600kf

[fathom venture]

Is money an issue?

[somber coral]

will i notice a difference

[fathom venture]

Eh depends on what you’re doing

[somber coral]

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/FRtmRV if i do notice a difference id want to upgrade to this (the 0 and purchased are the parts i already have)

[fathom venture]

Is your cpu compatible?

[somber coral]

why would it not be

[fathom venture]

Motherboard?

Wait don’t u use ddr4?

[somber coral]

yeah

thats why im upgrading mobo too

[fathom venture]

Oh

I’m not sure if that cpu can handle 8400/7200 ngl

[somber coral]

ill just go with 6400 for now then

[fathom venture]

I’m not sure if it is compatible with that too

Wait are you building the pc?

[somber coral]

the pc is built

the prices that have 0 next to them are the parts i have

the prices that are prices are things im buying

[fathom venture]

Your brothers pc?

Not sure abt the ram tho you need to check

6400 seems a bit too fast for i5 13600 ngl

I’m not sure tho

@marsh pewter @dull hollow

Can u guys confirm

[dull hollow]

what

[marsh pewter]

dont ping me... ever 😡

https://tenor.com/view/wolf-my-reaction-to-that-information-angry-reaction-wolf-reaction-gif-27080186

[dull hollow]

im using 6000mhz on my 7700x

[somber coral]

Ok no I’m doing two things

One building his pc (which we have discussed)

[fathom venture]

I’m sorry 😞 I forgot cat calling the alpha has consequences

[somber coral]

Two upgrading mine

[fathom venture]

Please no TvT

Make someone else do it

[somber coral]

Nah if I managed to build mine without shorting anything I can build his

[fathom venture]

I’m talking about the i5 13600, I’m not quite sure but I think 6400 is too much(might be wrong)

[fathom venture]

Ok bro TvT

[somber coral]

This is 13600k

Looks like I’m buying a new cpu

[fathom venture]

I did tell you tbf

[somber coral]

No you said maybe

[fathom venture]

I mean

[marsh pewter]

6400mhz ram just to be bronze 🥀

[fathom venture]

If someone warns you abt something multiple times it’s probably right

[dull hollow]

you dont need anything above 6000mhz imo

[fathom venture]

Nah i9 14900ks 8400mts

[fathom venture]

Crazy bro

[somber coral]

Dropped 40 kills and lost once

[fathom venture]

[marsh pewter]

tak yaoi

[ashen spindle]

dont think this is changing anything

[somber coral]

what's a good oled 240hz 27" 1440p for below 1000$ cad can someon e give me options please

[vagrant reef]

Using physX in 2025 is crazy, laggy af on new nvidia cards

[crimson wigeon]

Yeah we can just hope people help out getting it working on ZLUDA https://vosen.github.io/ZLUDA/blog/zluda-update-q1-2025/#physx

[neon prawn]

there’s the alienware that goes on sale once in a while for like 700 cad id check r/bapsalescanada every day

[unkempt lake]

Your current cpu was fine

Just plop the 9070xt in call it a day

[somber coral]

nah couldnt consistently pull 240 on valorant on 1440p

oh cpu

[unkempt lake]

Amd gpus have less driver overhead

[somber coral]

cant do ddr5 at all bascially

[unkempt lake]

So like

Your cpu will perform better xd

[somber coral]

should i just wait for msrp 9070xt and buy

wait whats the msrp for cad

[unkempt lake]

Yes and keep the rest of your rig as is

[somber coral]

but ddr5 :(

[unkempt lake]

840cad iirc

884

Sorry

[somber coral]

a 7800xt is good neough for me tho

[unkempt lake]

I had a screenie from launch day xd

[somber coral]

and its 200$ cheaper

[somber coral]

lmao

[unkempt lake]

Its still a good card but

I say just be patient

Get a 9070xt

Fsr4 for allow for the card to last longer, it's faster

I mean... rn you're upgreading because you bought a 4060 and didn't invest enough

Don't make the same mistake again

[somber coral]

ermmmmmmmmmmm actually 4060ti 16gb

i mean its a really good card i love it (it has a spiderman backplate lmao)

[unkempt lake]

You get what i mean still

[somber coral]

but i need to pull 240 on valorant if i get an oled

no need to buy yet tho still no oled in my hands

[unkempt lake]

Just be patient

Wait for an msrp card to pop up

Best buy has drops regularly

[somber coral]

best buy has reasonably priced geawr?

wtf

[unkempt lake]

Yeah?

They have msrp card drops regularly

Or like... very slightly above by like 20$ lol

[somber coral]

i havent seen them put out a good priced anything in forever

ill wait ig cheapest is still 950

any opinions on the build for my brother tho?

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/8fZ4wY

[unkempt lake]

as long as its not like your idiot friend who didnt want a better gpu

[somber coral]

hes gonna be using my monitor (2560x1440p) for helldivers 2 and mhw

[somber coral]

nah lmao we're chilling

[unkempt lake]

swap the liquid cooler for a tower cooler

[steady sail]

u can get 240+ fps with a 4060 tho

[somber coral]

im probably gonna give my brother a ssd from my pc too

[somber coral]

not on 1440p

[unkempt lake]

the 7800xt3d really doesnt get warm at all

just get a thermalright air cooler

ram wise... does he really need 64gb?

i'd say get some 32gb 6000 cl30

[somber coral]

nah man hes running out of ram rn (40GB)

[unkempt lake]

the fuck's he doing

modded MSFS?

[somber coral]

idk minecraft modding and shit im pretty sure (he has 40 chrome tabs open in the background)

i tried man i tried

[devout raptor]

why 7800x3d?

[somber coral]

why not its a goood cpu

[devout raptor]

9800 costs literally the same judging from those prices listed

[unkempt lake]

was gonna point that out

[somber coral]

ohhhh aight

[unkempt lake]

587 cad for a 7800x3d is a yikes

[somber coral]

nah wait

its 100$ more expensive for 9800x3d

[unkempt lake]

yes

its worth it

[unkempt lake]

you can use the money saved from buying a lower cooler :)

instead of an air cooler

problem solved

[somber coral]

im gonna save like 30$

[unkempt lake]

yes

also... why the mx master 3s

i have one its great for work but

dont game on that please

it is really slow< even with the logi bolt receiver

like... even for just casual gaming

amazing for work use tho but yeah

[somber coral]

nah my brother fucking loves it

i bought him one 2 yhears ago and it broke down recently and i gave him my basilisk

he loves heavy mice with metal scroll wheels

[unkempt lake]

i do too but forget gaming on it

[somber coral]

like the mx master 3s

man i cant get him to change what other option is there

[unkempt lake]

get him a g502 then

g502

[somber coral]

nah man too many buttons

[unkempt lake]

big heavy has hyperscroll

[somber coral]

not metal scroll wheel

[unkempt lake]

the side button is removable

...

[somber coral]

no like next to the left click

[devout raptor]

360mm is barely gonna fit in that case

also you should get the lian li edge psu its cheaper and like basically made for those cases

[unkempt lake]

doesnt matter

shape makes it so they're not in the way

trust me i have both lol

[somber coral]

no but he wants metal scroll wheel

not infinite scroll

specifically metal scroll wheel

[devout raptor]

get him a gaming laptop its gonna be enough

[unkempt lake]

Literally has metal...

And a bit of rubber

[somber coral]

nuh uh covered in rubber though

[unkempt lake]

Omfg

[somber coral]

ddude i cant get him to change his thoughts hes in lvoe with the mx master

[unkempt lake]

Its literally not playable lol

And i'm like

Not even an hardcore gamer

I play single player games

Mostly

[somber coral]

he gamed on it for 2 years

[unkempt lake]

Idk what to tell you

The delay is insane

I think he just forgot about it

From having used the basilisk

He will hate playing on it

[somber coral]

no lmao he dosent like the basilisk

[unkempt lake]

This + tower air cooler

And he can fit in the 9800z3d

In the budget

[steady sail]

[unkempt lake]

Magic

[somber coral]

no but taxes

[unkempt lake]

Ok i pointed out there's cheaper psus

[somber coral]

you did?

[unkempt lake]

Yes i replied to the other guy

Saying yes this + tower air cooler

[somber coral]

lian li edge is more expensive for me

[steady sail]

yeah bc thats a 1000w

[somber coral]

uhhh the normal

[devout raptor]

its not that expensive anyway

[somber coral]

lian li edge gold is more expensive

[devout raptor]

have we not heard of checking prices from different websites

[somber coral]

not really i trust pcpart picker lmao

[dull hollow]

whats that

[dull hollow]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-gif-17563483835665589874

[fathom venture]

Ngl I think he’s trolling

We had this discussion already Ethan

[somber coral]

nope still the same price as before

[devout raptor]

hmm

[fathom venture]

Honestly 9800x3d is just too much lol but oh well it’s his choice

[devout raptor]

theres never a too much

[unkempt lake]

@somber coral get a 750w psu

https://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX00128963

[somber coral]

nah hes gonna upgrade in the future so

[unkempt lake]

even just a bronze like this is penty

[fathom venture]

Eh pretty sure 9800x3d is going to be a waste of money anyways

[unkempt lake]

750 is plenty

[devout raptor]

windows 10😠

[somber coral]

"mental health and substance use"

[fathom venture]

Get windows 11

[steady sail]

dont buy a windows 10 key for 30$ xD

[devout raptor]

cheaping out on psu is crazy

[dull hollow]

850 is recommended for 9070xts

if hes getting an OC version

[fathom venture]

850w gold

[unkempt lake]

nope not for the asus prime

[fathom venture]

Just get that

[unkempt lake]

lower tdp

[devout raptor]

750 watt psus dont even come with 3x8pin pcie

[unkempt lake]

anyhow if you cant stretch 50 fucking $ for the 9800x3d

maybe you shouldnt be hbuying a pc

[dull hollow]

you can use 2 and then 1 splitter

[devout raptor]

ewwww

literally the gpu in the cart

[devout raptor]

ngl just let the dude waste his money however he wants I doubt its gonna be appreciated any less or more if its not the perfect parts

[fathom venture]

I mean what games does your brother play? @somber coral

[steady sail]

[dull hollow]

his brother is on a mac

[devout raptor]

if dude is buying an mx master and a gaming pc its clear nothing serious will be done anyway

[unkempt lake]

i tried explaining this earlier

[fathom venture]

Why are we still on 64 gigs of ram

[unkempt lake]

mx master is great but it is AWFUL for gaming

[unkempt lake]

cuz the guy cant close his chrome tabs

[somber coral]

helldivers two plus mhw

[fathom venture]

32 is plenty wtf

[somber coral]

he loves it idk what to say

[somber coral]

hes running out of ram with 40gb its not

[fathom venture]

We literally had this discussion as well bro🙏🏻

[neon prawn]

even 16 is plenty

[fathom venture]

Isn’t he 18?

[somber coral]

YEA

[fathom venture]

Why don’t u ask him to join this server

[devout raptor]

running out at 40 doing what?

[fathom venture]

That’s some bs bro

64 is just unnecessary

[dull hollow]

i dont think 850w do either actually

at least mine didnt

[somber coral]

he dosent know shit abt pcs

[fathom venture]

Then why is he deciding bro

[somber coral]

like i said, hes running out with 40

[devout raptor]

when i was looking for parts the models I looked at had them for the 850 model but not 750

[somber coral]

because hes running out of ram, so i got him 64 as we have thew budget for it

[dull hollow]

my thermaltake Toughpower GF3 850W only comes with 2 6+2

[devout raptor]

running out as in task manager says 100%

[fathom venture]

Thats mac

[somber coral]

running out as in shit is crashing or smth idk

[fathom venture]

I’m pretty sure the usage differs between windows and mac

[devout raptor]

Idk man

whatever

[fathom venture]

Crazy work

[devout raptor]

just get a prebuilt or sum

[fathom venture]

Fr

The cpu he chose is crazy, I still don’t believe this

[somber coral]

what cpu bruh

[steady sail]

i mean 98x3d is not a waste of a cpu

[fathom venture]

At 1440p I wouldn’t really bother getting the best cpu in the market unless I have a high end gpu

[somber coral]

listens to cemal and gets a 7800x3d
listens to dashi and gets a 9800x3d
get told to buy a prebuilt cuz idk what im doing

[fathom venture]

Eh

[somber coral]

who tf do i listen to

[fathom venture]

I never recommended the 78x3d

[steady sail]

9070 xt is pretty great for everything

[fathom venture]

The 9800 is just slightly more expensive

[steady sail]

and u cant really get any 90 class gpu under 2500 xD

[fathom venture]

If you’re getting the 7800 you can just spend a little bit more and get the 9800x3d

[somber coral]

9950X3D the best no?

[fathom venture]

Never said anything about that but on cpu intense games he’ll get over 500 fps(pointless) and on gpu intense tasks the cpu won’t even do much

[fathom venture]

Well overall sure but in terms of gaming I think both 9800x3d/9950x3d are on top since they have the same number of x3d cores
