@gusty kiln

hub video went up

[gusty kiln]

Ooo for real?

[unkempt lake]

350usd 16gb
300usd 8gb

[gusty kiln]

Hopefully actually that price

[odd prawn]

Thermal right aio coming in clutch

Now affordable

$65 usd with screen

$45 no screen

[unkempt lake]

thats insanely cheap for a watercooler

[odd prawn]

Hell yeah

Fight back lian li

[unkempt lake]

i'm happy with the noctuas i have in my systems that i bought years ago but

thats good for anyone who needs an aio

[odd prawn]

I might get a screen for my build now

No competition for that price

I hope other companies competes with them for the price

[unkempt lake]

tbh i feel like thermalright barely has any margins

they just compensate with scale

[lone dune]

Damn

Does anyone even EKWB anymore

[gusty kiln]

Lmao the steam died

[lone dune]

I feel like i am the only one ekwbing

[unkempt lake]

Well the company is shit

And was basically dying

Guess we'll see what happens with the new leadership

Their products were good but the company itself was rough

[lone dune]

All im missing for my build is A R9 9950x3D , watercooled Motherboard with AM5, 1500watt titanium psu, Ram and I just realized corsair came out with the 9000D so thats added to the list

Idek if i should get their products now i was gonna go copper tubes

[unkempt lake]

just get a 1500w platinum

no point in getting titanium really

I love my hx1500i

[lone dune]

I dont think imma do EKWB

My abu dhabi edition 5090 wouldnt make sense if i put a water block on it

[unkempt lake]

Put the cooler on a shelf xD

[lone dune]

Lol

Imma torture my current setup in mineral oil so it isnt the weirdest thing i would do

🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

[wheat plume]

Oh wow 😍
This is super gorgeous

Maybe I should have gotten a Pixel instead ..

Android 16 has jiggle physics now :')

[lyric hatch]

so more features from One UI finally coming across to base android, nice

[halcyon moss]

you currently have no colors in your android shell

[trim crane]

imagine someone pulls off a low profile 9060XT 16GB

I would buy it

similar to the Gigabyte RTX 5060 8GB Low Profile

[crimson wigeon]

It can't do enough fake frames, who cares

[magic minnow]

https://blog.google/products/google-one/google-ai-ultra/

249.99$ a month

[analog sinew]

but does it do anything useful

[magic minnow]

You get 1 YouTube premium account

[thick elk]

You give google up to 30tb of data to spy upon

[crimson wigeon]

What do you mean anything useful it's AI it's the most useful thing there is! AI AI AI AI AI!

[analog sinew]

true i really need a space jellyfish

[wheat plume]

Yeh cause I can't find a wallpaper I like that has an accent color I like

[magic minnow]

Make one with Ai!!

[balmy vector]

AI SUBSCRIPTION, WHAT WILL IT DO? WHO KNOWS NOW BUY

[halcyon moss]

almost half is already the 30TB.
it is pricy though..

[wheat plume]

I can't...unless I use another one
I just can make presets

THIS IS GORGEOUS 😍

[halcyon moss]

it looks almost the same to me

[wheat plume]

Nah nah there's a lot of differences

Even the animations are different now

[magic minnow]

What’s this ui on

[fair gull]

you already lost after you said that

[halcyon moss]

I'm looking beyond the transparancy.
And then it's very similar

[ashen spindle]

I have no idea which one is supposed to be the newer/better one lol

[fair gull]

exactly

[thick elk]

As a light-theme user, finally fixing the color of the notification / quick settings area is a much-needed improvement

[halcyon moss]

so.. almost the same

[thick elk]

At the pace android improves it's a big one

[umbral heron]

Now, the plan is simple
Take good ol' Casio F-91, gut it out, put ESP-32 chip inside - boom, smartwatch

[halcyon moss]

what about a 8066 or something

[umbral heron]

8266?

[halcyon moss]

yesh

lower power

[umbral heron]

Sounds better

[halcyon moss]

not sure about the newer esp32's though..
there a re soooo many of them now

[wheat plume]

Pixel phones and anything else using mostly stock Android

[magic minnow]

I wish android wasn’t so lame and had good high end phones not just Samsung

[wheat plume]

OnePlus are good

[magic minnow]

I’m very interested in it was hoping the 13t was going to be a high end baby phone

[fickle ore]

Nvidia is being shit and dishonest https://www.techspot.com/news/107962-nvidia-rtx-5060-launch-erosion-independent-gpu-reviews.html

[analog sinew]

man i hope AI bubble bursts soon

[sudden imp]

It may never

[analog sinew]

i can hope for it anyway

[sudden imp]

And I’m scared if they continue to milk it till we full on matrix this shit

[ashen spindle]

It’s also not what nvidia is doing this they would be doing this even without ai exploding

They’ve been doing it in different ways for years trying to see what they can get away with

[sudden imp]

Who’s come out an basically said what nvidias been doing behind the scenes.
I know GN, Der8auer, HW unboxed, Paul?

[thick elk]

Will say that AI suddenly collapsing would have at least some effect. With excess capacity and such.

[pale sigil]

As long as I keep Vader ai

[unkempt lake]

he said owo

[sudden imp]

Even though their family may be okay with it. I really think this sets a dangerous precedent.

Why hire new actors to play roles when you can just prop up iconic dead people?

RDJ dies? Just ai the fuck outta him.

Smaller voice actors want a nice contract? Add a clause they can use their voice for ai and strong arm them into a deal.

[minor citrus]

You can't just voice record a billion lines to cover everything the artificial voice might talk about. That's different if it's for a movie or something else

[sudden imp]

We lose history by destroying it but at this point we may get lost in a sea of ai-generated content. AI chat bots are cool but what the hell is the point? It’s not a real person you’re making a connection with.

[pale sigil]

I get what you are saying

But Vader died OwO

And talked about wooting

https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/s/9amALBUyHL

[sudden imp]

That’s excessive, but If it works it works.

[unkempt lake]

@sudden imp

my greatest achievement

Getting him to say owo

[ashen spindle]

The default should be to assume if someone didn’t consent to getting used for AI you shouldn’t use their likeness imo and if Vaders actor never said anything about it we shouldn’t just add that to random games

[astral haven]

Eventual goal is each person can see their own version of a movie to solve the problem of subjectivity
That inherently requires it end up cheaper than the price of fish to generate the movies

[astral haven]

Which Vader actor tho?

[unkempt lake]

I don't even wanna know what ai me would be like

[unkempt lake]

earl

[astral haven]

Earl wasn't the actor playing Vader tho

He dubbed over another actors performance after the first atrocious screening...

[unkempt lake]

But he was the voice

...

Aka the important part

[astral haven]

🤷 yet many appearances of Vader go without the voice no problem

[ashen spindle]

I have no idea just pleasent said vader died so I assumed its s dead actors voice

[astral haven]

Many Vader impersonators exist, it's not like the voice was earl Jones' natural voice

[unkempt lake]

i mean... yeah the voice actor died

[unkempt lake]

Family has the rights to it tho

[astral haven]

Depends

[unkempt lake]

https://www.businessinsider.com/fortnite-ai-darth-vader-epic-games-james-earl-jones-2025-5

[astral haven]

As awful as it is, it's perfectly legal to hire an impersonator as long as you get the parts that Disney owns from disney

[reef patrol]

AI isn't an impersonator though from a legal standpoint.

[ashen spindle]

yeah if they make an AI from an impersonators voice thats a different argument then

[marsh pewter]

his family signed off on it

all things considered I think they did it in the most respectful way they could

I think it would’ve been a pretty alright tribute if it wasn’t for the AI being completely dogshit and having no filter

[sudden imp]

That sounds so dystopian

[reef patrol]

Could have said no. Could have demanded limitations on what it can say.

I for one doubt he'd be super okay with being able to say slurs and other shit.

[marsh pewter]

I agree fs, and I 100% think it should have never released in the state it did. apparently there WAS protections but they just weren't good enough.

[sudden imp]

AI replacing human talent will never be okay imo

And I just find chat bots weird

[magic minnow]

I don’t need friends when I have infinite friends thanks to chatbots

[vapid ruin]

Lmao, I mean, whenever 'protection' is involved with AI it's usually going to be shit anyway.

For funny/cool sort of purpose

Not really for corporate stuff

[astral haven]

Epic just did the right thing this time (if I'm being cynical it's because they are fighting with Apple and need all the support from devs and artists they can get)

[pale sigil]

It's a weird one because I agree, voice actors shouldn't be replaced.

However with Vader it kinda makes sense.

It allows a virtual team mate

[gusty kiln]

@astral haven are you going to get TR 9000?

[astral haven]

If they release an x3d maybe

[astral haven]

I think the ship has sailed for AI performances
The question is if the voice actor gets paid for the performance
And in this case, there's an argument that the voice actor got paid, and there's also an argument that a voice actor wasn't paid in this case

[gusty kiln]

hmmm they did basically rebadge the 9950X3D as a epyc 4005 chip

so maybe rebadge the epyc to TR soon tm

[pale sigil]

I also don't think impersonators are good

With Vader

Vs the ai

[astral haven]

Sure, but thanks to that, voice actors are now relying on the charity of the earl Jones family to make money

[pale sigil]

Well,I think it's great in this case but I definitely don't like the idea of him taking in a full on role.

But it's obviously setting a standard to do so

[sudden imp]

For future tv shows or projects they should most certainly hire new talent

[pale sigil]

Ye I agree

But I'm saying in this specific case it makes sense.

And it works extremely well

They used AI in obiwan too

It was a bit rough

Well

Ai and Hayden

[sudden imp]

I hate ai with a passion it takes the creativity and humanity out of art

[pale sigil]

I usually hate it too

Probably the first time I don't have

[digital cliff]

yeah but I asked chatgpt what flush bolts are called today and it knew the answer immediately so

safe to say that AI is indispensable

[vapid ruin]

AI is fun, if it's not used in commercial sort of way, just as something you play it on the evening like roleplaying or text adventure.

I just like it because you're not locked to a specific decision and can just go anywhere you want.

[analog sinew]

ai has its uses

but its being shoved into eveyrthing and used forevil purposes as usual

[sudden imp]

^^^

[astral haven]

3 techbros (well 2 tech bros and a french madman) are trying to wipe out humanity, and a bunch of the big cap tech CEOs saw dollar signs in their ideas

[astral haven]

I'm not seeing Turin X, don't think there's any real option yet even if I go server cpu

Intel is so useless holy smokes
Xeon w 2400 is pretty much useless unless you just need PCIe lanes

[gusty kiln]

yeah they feel so underpowered now, not even worth for homelabbers. 8c/8t is not enough these days

[astral haven]

Wut

[gusty kiln]

oh wait I'm looking at E-2400

[astral haven]

Xeon w starts at 12c24t practically

[gusty kiln]

yeah was looking at E instead of W

Xeon W-3000 held the performance crown for like 2 weeks lol

[astral haven]

They do have some OEM only 6,8,10 cores tho

[astral haven]

Nah, it still has the crown, it just needs ln2 to run at full speed

[gusty kiln]

[astral haven]

Most chips you can use a nice liquid loop to run all-core at the boost speed, these Intel chips can use well over 1kw, and often they aren't even reaching their default 1c boost

[ashen spindle]

there wont be a TR x3d

since theres no epyc x3d this gen

ig technically they could make one since its same chips but would add quite some extra work for bios and such

[astral haven]

Is there never gonna be Turin X?

[ashen spindle]

nope not this gen

customers that want that didnt fit into this gen ugprade cycle so there was like almost no demand

so we probably get venice with bottom die vcache again

[gusty kiln]

If only epyc 4005 had more pcie lanes

Think it's maxed out at 28

[ashen spindle]

yeah its the exact same as am5/zen5 since its the same hardware just more validation

[astral haven]

Its literally just regular ryzen

[ashen spindle]

well no its not using the cIOD so at least some parts of the system would have to know how to deal with it and I assume thats not something the firmware and all can just ignore

also would need packaging setup since it would be just for threadripper and not shared pcbs

[astral haven]

I thought it was am5?

[ashen spindle]

well technically they could have revamped it for thje 4005 series

[astral haven]

I see nothing mentioned in the sth article

The more of this shit I see on the internet, the more tempting it becomes to just retire back to offline spaces.

[gusty kiln]

Steve said GSkill new ram is being made specifically for an upcoming CPU, and heavily hinting at a new AM5

but what else is left for AM5?

https://youtu.be/xhCOKw-ICsg

[thick elk]

I think it may be quite likely that my 7800x3d will still be enough to skip zen6, leaving me with just a motherboard change on am5 and no cpu upgrade

As for the motherboard change, well not needed but only cost me time

[reef patrol]

I've never wanted to run an Original Xbox on USB C.

[marsh pewter]

and yet you can

[reef patrol]

I suppose if my PSU ever dies it's an option.

Feels downright shameful to use such a tiny cable though 😄

[marsh pewter]

it does feel wrong

[reef patrol]

It's an ugly ass PCB though. Definitely needs a cleaner version that isn't a bunch of soldered wires onto the backside like that 😄

[marsh pewter]

hey if its works it works

[reef patrol]

Now we just need a replacement case, a new motherboard and controllers.

[sudden imp]

There was definitely copyrighted material used for that

[umbral heron]

It doesn't matter if corporation are the ones who are stealing though

[iron wave]

I might throw Nvidia two of my paychecks soon.

[ashen spindle]

only two? but the more you buy the more you save

[unkempt lake]

Ill give them my life savings

Fuck my down payment on my house

[iron wave]

I'm not getting a Quadro.

[ashen spindle]

get NV72 server rack :^)

[iron wave]

My new job isn't going to pay me anywhere near that well.

My organs aren't even worth that much.

[unkempt lake]

@iron wave get the 48gb arc pro

[ashen spindle]

he cant get that card

[unkempt lake]

ye

[ashen spindle]

cheap cost per GB so they are fine

if they sell the 24GB next year it could be a great consumer deal for home AI things

[iron wave]

I feel like the 5090 is going to murder it in raster and RT without cheats at ~3K90.

[ashen spindle]

oh yeah its not even close

no, not even close if they keep up only the current pace

[iron wave]

I think Nvidia has enough gas to prevent Intel from being king until at least the E series, probably longer.

[ashen spindle]

its not so much about nvidia/amd having the option, intel first needs to make the dgpus profitable

they use massive silicon dies that cost wayy to much

intel needs to hope to even compete with amd in the next two gens

not at all, depends on intel making MASSIVE progress or not

[iron wave]

It sounds like the AI market is pulling enough that Intel isn't going to drop the cards soon, but time will tell. All of the good will the cards are getting counts for something at least.

I'm really hoping the next gen gets competitive with AMD.

[ashen spindle]

they wont drop datacenter/iGPU but dGPU? they dont make enough to keep the current rate going

[iron wave]

These pro cards are going to be expensive, it will likely help make up the difference.

Unfortunately breaking into markets like this just involves a lot of loss for a long time.

That was the case with Intel before Zen.

A lot of companies want to break free from the CUDA binds, things can change if they line up well.

[ashen spindle]

the cuda moat is already less than people expect, especially in the high end HPC and similar clusters

[iron wave]

IIRC there are some potentially promising CUDA layers.

[ashen spindle]

and with the 9060xt rocm has day1 support for consumer hardware

[iron wave]

Tides are starting to shift if you know where to look.

[ashen spindle]

cuda is still thrown around like the big boogey man when its really not that bad anymore from a vendor lock

[lone dune]

It came

[iron wave]

These things always start slow.

[iron wave]

No idea what that is.

[unkempt lake]

is it gold

smh

[lone dune]

Nope lol but i might get it customized

[iron wave]

I just got another Steel Series one. :V

[unkempt lake]

@lone dune this u? https://youtu.be/sr0gNJ090JA?si=fG-Wf4g_wt6uhUZC

[lone dune]

Just reminded me

Need to find where my rival mouse is

[lone dune]

Lol more like my dad

[ashen spindle]

but yeah depending on what the needs are you could maybe get away with a 9070xt now that rocm support is officially in for it @iron wave unless you want the absolute max raster performance

[iron wave]

I want max so I don't have to care about it for years. I'm only getting a second titan class card because two of my computers need decent 3D acceleration.

[unkempt lake]

futureproofing ain't a thing

[iron wave]

It is to an extent. I used an i7-3770K until last year without issues.

[unkempt lake]

Had one of those

Oced like a charm

[iron wave]

Mine was a dud.

[unkempt lake]

But then i dropped a 2080 in the rig and it couldn't keep up lol

Was fine for my 980 and my 650 ti boost

[iron wave]

The 3300K I had before that got close to a full GHz.

I think I managed 1.2Ghz for a bit.

......

My parents trust Google's AI slop with medical information.

[unkempt lake]

excuse me

[iron wave]

I just watched him read the AI slop about a vaccination.

[ashen spindle]

always have one of the insane google AI hallucinations ready to show someone "this is what you are trusting"

like that, show them answers like these

[iron wave]

The problem is, he knows about this stuff.

[ashen spindle]

but its not fine though, literally look at this basic questions if smoking is fine lol

nah these things still happen

[iron wave]

Just today it got the order of Disney movies wrong and that should be trivial for a computer.

[ashen spindle]

thats not too bad, I know someone earlier this year still got google telling him to use glue in his pizza dough

[ashen spindle]

oh also forgot to mention, you literally cant buy these, they are only sold B2B in the matrix systems so systems with 4 or 8 cards

so its like 5grand for gpus and you gotta buy the entire system

so probably like 7k minimum and would need to be business that gets them

[iron wave]

Eww.

[lone dune]

@sonic adder i dont get why u hate the mouse

WTF Microsoft?

[compact relic]

Can anyone recommend a relatively cheap UPS for a server pc + modem and router

a few minutes is enough

[reef patrol]

Yeah.... that definitely seems like the best approach to dealing with repeated outrage from staff, instead of... I dunno... addressing it.

[fair gull]

so smth like an eaton or apc 500-1000va ups

although id personally probably also make sure it has some auto shutdown capability for the server so you can set it to shutdown if the UPS has been cut off from main for X minutes

[compact relic]

I'm not hosting anything important and I'm mainly getting those 1 second outages so I'm just looking for a cheap option to keep my media and game servers on while I'm not home

[fair gull]

1 second outages?

that sounds weird if thats a grid thing

sounds more like some house electrical thing

[compact relic]

I live in the middle of nowhere so those small flickers are pretty common during bad weather, and it's often enough to turn off my PC and modem etc.

It's not critical but I was thinking of buying one out of frustration, it's a hassle setting the servers back up with remote desktop on phone, I'm often away from home for days at a time

[umbral heron]

Oh
I have to make a cake
I believe some of my instances will have a year of uptime soon

awwe

[ashen spindle]

How complicated do you want it xD

[balmy vector]

Make frog run doom

[ashen spindle]

Could always look at home assistant features and see what you could add yourself, like make a sensor that detects rain and then a motor that closes the window or does it based on HA telling you weather prediction

Has anything from simple to hard and can be used at home

[halcyon moss]

and if you dont want to do the software.. make it run esphome 😉

vibe engineering makes it a lot simpler these days

[ashen spindle]

The HA discord has a lot of people they can probably show you some simple projects to start with or just look up things around it on YouTube

It’s just nice because you can do anything that useful and have a direct use for it

[halcyon moss]

my shelved project was a air quality monitor. i bought something ready to go instead.. was not worth the trouble anymore

and now i want to make a jukebox for my kids with rfid cards

[ashen spindle]

Yeah there’s a ton of things

[tribal dirge]

Or get your own esp32 board and make something!

Those esp32 relay boards are pretty handy though!

[old marlin]

wdym

Lenovo also made one a bit later

sony one was 2009, lenovo one was 2011

so you can see why they never took off

So OLED still useless

[ashen spindle]

No? Those are minimum not average times before it’s done

[wheat plume]

I'm annoyed ;_;
The song name and artist don't show on the Always On Display in NothingOS :'(

I loved that feature of Pixel ROM

Got to actually wake up the display to see the song name

[fair gull]

it really is a wonder you havent used your time you used for complaints yet to learn android kernel develop and app development to fix those issues that annoy you

[halcyon moss]

google pay good moneys

[jaunty rose]

Local Walmart getting ready for the Switch 2

Or some 5 year old broke the display

[unkempt lake]

Probably switch 2

Barely 2 weeks left

[balmy vector]

yea its gotta be switch 2

my bestbuy put a whole curtain over the switch display case

[jaunty rose]

Data here is slow dang

Also found a couple of 5070’s at msrp

[unkempt lake]

Nothing new

They're at msrp everywhere

:P

[jaunty rose]

Im just baffled that they have them in stock in my town, never seen a 50 series until today

Before it was just a few 4060’s lol

[reef patrol]

The mid range cards are always the ones to end up being available in podunk stores.

[jaunty rose]

They’re stacked with 7800x3D cpu’s here aswell but Thats mostly because I dont think ive ever seen anyone buy them

[jaunty rose]

Woah the gradient username looks cool

[dull hollow]

just wait till you see raquels

[reef patrol]

You'd probably skip the 7800x3D now for the 9800x3D, unless those are out of stock - or it's a really good deal.

[jaunty rose]

Yeah they’re still 400 USD so it isnt much of a good deal

[dull hollow]

there was a scam for a 9800x3d on the front page of amazon

[unkempt lake]

clearly the deal is the 14900k self destructive pc

[jaunty rose]

[dull hollow]

i think it was like >10% off making it like $400

[bold coyote]

it do be like that

[steady sail]

I mean its gonna be fine for me as my first skates xdd

[leaden kiln]

hate those skates

[steady sail]

I never used any dot skates in my life soo

[leaden kiln]

but you've used skates before
came with your xbox mouse

there's nothing wrong with obsidian pros
I just don't like them personally, they're so slow and you can feel so much texture through them

[steady sail]

One pf my favorite skates where from roccat soo

[jaunty rose]

Dang im just using stock skates

[leaden kiln]

won't last super long on a glass pad

[jaunty rose]

How are glass pads? I’m personally using artisan hayate otsu v2

[dull hollow]

i like my glass pad

[leaden kiln]

I like mine but I don't have any nice pads that aren't glass

so can't really compare

they are fast

[jaunty rose]

Are you implying you have a collection of glass mousepads

[leaden kiln]

I'm not

[jaunty rose]

Ok

[leaden kiln]

I just don't have any cloth pads that are nice

[dull hollow]

theres a really cheap glass pad you can get as an entry unlike these 100+$ pads

[jaunty rose]

Only inconvenience of cloth pads is cleaning them but I like it

I was considering glass pads at some point tho

[dull hollow]

https://tekkus.ai/products/singularity

$40

[jaunty rose]

Be cool to test but not daily drive, my mouse pad was like $90

[dull hollow]

my glass pad was the same price lol, before taxes and shipping

[steady sail]

I wanted the singularity but then miku pad dropped soo miku it is

[digital cliff]

I want cloth pad technology that doesn't stain permanently after a while of use

[jaunty rose]

Taxes and shipping………

[dull hollow]

mikus also like 3x the price of singularity xd

[steady sail]

Yeah LMAO

But miku is life

[dull hollow]

it shipped from china to the US, only option i had was express dhl

[fickle ore]

GLASS is ass

[dull hollow]

[jaunty rose]

I’d like to hear your humble opinion in detail

[fickle ore]

current sensors dont like glass

mediocre tracking

they arent made for it

[leaden kiln]

haven't noticed any tracking issues on mine

[fickle ore]

"hAVENT noticed so there isnt any" gg

[dull hollow]

most modern sensors are good enough, and it also depends per glass pad

[leaden kiln]

I specifically didn't say that there isn't any, gfy

[fickle ore]

quantify good enough

[dull hollow]

good enough as marginal differences between each like 3950 or 3395

[fickle ore]

So feels?

so "havent noticed differences"

[jaunty rose]

Lets be respectful in this debate

No need to be passive aggressive

[dull hollow]

so... youre using a different persons words for my conversation... interesting strategy

i havent said anything yet about feeling anything

[fickle ore]

dw im just jk, keep using glass if u like it

[dull hollow]

i havent owned my glass pad for too long yet so i cant speak much about consistency and inconsistencies but all mices now are about weight, shape, and quality control since sensors have basically leveled out

[leaden kiln]

glass protects the art better if i spill something 🪦

[dull hollow]

its nice being so easy to clean

[leaden kiln]

living in a dusty environment isn't awesome though

[dull hollow]

as my cloth pad been going onto its 3rd year, its showing some wear and tear

hard to wash a deskmat without getting everything around you wet or either chucking it into the wash

[dull hollow]

i still wipe mine every day before i start using it, usually max like twice a day

[leaden kiln]

I think I'm gonna get an artisan when I go to Japan, wanna try one

[rough osprey]

nice headset

[leaden kiln]

hmd or iem
both are pretty nice though

[rough osprey]

the vr one

[leaden kiln]

it was so expensive and I use it so little 😭

its great when I do use it though

[rough osprey]

i gotta get one at some poinz

but ye expensive af

[leaden kiln]

now the 2 is pretty close to coming out, and it improved on a lot of the things people didn't like about the first beyond

[vagrant pagoda]

so steam is opening links in a window with no way to close it

[pastel nacelle]

Anyone know which linux that interfaces with Asus+Wifi, Intel, and Nvidia?

Interesting.

Im just on the fence considering asus website only has drivers listed for windows 11 :/

I dunno what baked in means.

Like preinstalled?

So the hardware probably has internal functionality.

And the os should be able to detect?

Ok so whats the difference between Arch, Bazzite, and RedHat?

I know Fedora and Redhat are supposed to be the same?

So

Main recommendation is Arch?

Transition?

Ok

So firmware is package manager.

So i use package manager to download steam and other stuff?

Hmm

So if I need to use a kernal bot for farming package manager should be able to use it?

Using like a python or xparty bot that plays a game for me so I can farm mats while i sleep

Interesting

Do I need a malware service or does arch already have a malware and firewall?

Hmm

I wonder how thats gonna work out with streaming sites that like to barrage me with fapplesauce ads.

I like firefox tho

Nice

Hmm

Hows safety as far as torrenting?

[gusty kiln]

Insert Mullvad endorsement*

https://www.rtings.com/vpn/reviews/best/vpn

[pastel nacelle]

Now i wonder if Firefox has a tor-like product.

[tribal dirge]

Not really, Tor is its own thing

[marsh pewter]

tor is based on firefox

[tribal dirge]

Yeah

But the way it operates is different from Mozilla Firefox

Multiple encryption layers my beloved

Yeah that's the one downside, it's dog slow

Since its, multiple layers of encryption that takes a nonzero amount of time to encrypt, decrypt, over and over and over.

Yeah

The best compromise is to just use a VPN + Proxy

It's good enough

For the most part

Sounds about right lol

[pastel nacelle]

Im arching it

he already has the motherboard, ram, m.2

and a shitton of lian li uni fans that i havent bothered to add

[gusty robin]

im here

lemme see

[dull hollow]

ironically that xfx is the cheapest white 9070xt

[odd prawn]

is it in stock?

[dull hollow]

yes

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DWPL55ZP?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1

[odd prawn]

wow down to 399

again

[dull hollow]

it might be a scam

[odd prawn]

same price as the red devil 9070xt

[dull hollow]

it was $400 for a short period yesterday

[odd prawn]

damn 1K for the taichi white

USD

[gusty robin]

I'd recommend getting the 5070 instead, it's cheaper and a more comparable match for the cpu

[odd prawn]

is this 1440p

[gusty robin]

if you're going with the 9800x3d that is

[odd prawn]

for esports title?

[dull hollow]

yeah

[gusty robin]

also depends on what kind of games your friend plays. I personally am using the 9800x3d with an oldie 3080TI

[dull hollow]

well its the g9, some 5000x1440

[gusty robin]

and it works like a charm

[dull hollow]

tbh i dont even know what games he plays, he just wants another system that’ll last as long as his old system did

[odd prawn]

do you need really that extra v cache for 1440p, if you are going to play GPU triple A games?

[dull hollow]

hes still rocking a 1080

[odd prawn]

or can you settle for a x cpu

[dull hollow]

it isnt for me, for a cousin

[odd prawn]

if the money doesn't matter

[dull hollow]

hes paying tho so

[odd prawn]

your cousin needs a 1440p

hehehe

[dull hollow]

he said he wants the best

but obviously not blow 4k on a gpu

nvidia drivers have been shite and company practices are also horrible

[gusty robin]

even if he goes to 1440p your current parts should suffice for almost all scenarios

[dull hollow]

i dont trust 12v enough

[odd prawn]

1440p 9800x3d 9070xt is great if money is not a problem

if you are gonna play triple a games

[gusty robin]

still I will vouch for the 5070 since it's just because of dlss and shit like that - newly optimized

[dull hollow]

he is at 1440p currently lol, his current system cant even run up to spec with his monitor

[gusty robin]

yea a refresh is needed fs. But if he's replacing the monitor with a 4k one then improvements will be needed all around

more vram, perhaps a more capable gpu

[odd prawn]

yeah get him that specs

[dull hollow]

just looking out for a better price 9070xt if possible

[odd prawn]

9800x3d 9070xt. especially if he plays valorant or triple a games. best of both worlds

[umbral heron]

9070xt

you won't find it for msrp
but tis a fine card

[dull hollow]

yk funny story, i offered to buy one for him launch day since i was there anyways to get myself one but he declined

[odd prawn]

[umbral heron]

Also if you can get your hands on 7800x3d you can go with that too, difference between it and 9800x3d is tiny

[odd prawn]

maybe yeah

[dull hollow]

yeah but he wants the best cpu wise gpu is kinda whatever is a fair deal

[odd prawn]

its 1440 anyway

but the 1%lows is better in 9800x3d

but fvk

[dull hollow]

im running a 7700x and 9070xt, tbh its a really good balance

[odd prawn]

what games do you play

[dull hollow]

cpu does lack in games like valorant but its enough

[dull hollow]

shooters and racing

one gacha game

[umbral heron]

I can only tell that I have noticed absolutely no difference by going from 7x3d to 9x3d

[odd prawn]

oh yeah. that's why i bought an x3d cpu pair for my 5090 cause i play cpu bound games too and gpu lol

[dull hollow]

as long as the fps matches my monitor, idc

[odd prawn]

i am enjoying the 9800x3d in path of exile 2

its running great

5090 run great in doom in 4k

[dull hollow]

7700x is enough to hit 360+fps at 1440p@high settings in val

[umbral heron]

Factorio
16 cores go zoom

[gusty robin]

Wait i was wrong. This is my current build: CPU (Processor): Ryzen 7800X3D

CPU Cooler: AigoSX 360 ARGB
Case: SAMA 新境界 MATX
Case Fans: 棱镜4Pro x 4

[odd prawn]

the things is the 1% lows in this x3d chips are better than X cpus

[gusty robin]

I hit 400+fps in val 1440p easily

consistently too

[dull hollow]

x3d was wayy too expensive when i was upgrading

[odd prawn]

i hit 800 FPS in ranked game in val

consistent too in utilities dump

but i capped my FPS

to 360 lol

[gusty robin]

gawdamn

[dull hollow]

only game im kinda disappointed in is marvel rivals but thats the game issue and not my pc

[gusty robin]

miners are crying to hear about this

[dull hollow]

dog water game optimization (marvel rivals)

[odd prawn]

yeah undervolted too. running only at 42c

it runs hella cool

[odd prawn]

i get 600 fps in rivals

I need a get rich quick scheme to cop myself ur build asap

oh those 2 white lian-li fans cant be seen

If you got a case this big and this cpu why not use a liquid cooler

browse music library

[dull hollow]

i split it in 2, top half for discord and bottom half for browsing if i got a game playing

[analog sinew]

[gusty robin]

Goonmaxxing, I see.

If you focus one eye on each monitor you can line them up for a 3D immersion

[umbral heron]

Upper left is for discord, upper right is for Steam, lower left is for browser, lower middle is for game, and lower right is for 3d printer slicer and music player

[dull hollow]

[halcyon moss]

dns rate limiting internet speeds? waa..

[pastel nacelle]

I tried google dns

[halcyon moss]

at most you'll get a wrong location estimation. and that can send you to a server farther away.

[pastel nacelle]

-.-

Discord finished

Gray window though

[halcyon moss]

that is not rate limiting..... also does not affect a single download, only at the start

ok. right

what even are words

chris is download a large file.
file is located at dl.discord.com or something.
1 dns request to look up the ip for that.
then download starts and no further dns request is done

[pastel nacelle]

I unno what's up firefox runs fast.

But dowloading stuff from pacman takes a while.

[halcyon moss]

@pastel nacelle what arch repo location have you configured? is there a better more local one?

[pastel nacelle]

Dont get me wrong I appreciate whatever help I can get so I dont have to use windows 11

Repo?

Those are words my green doesnt understand.

I dunno

How i look at that?

I also told konsole to install flatpak

But that is also booty slow.

[magic minnow]

Use chrome bro

[pastel nacelle]

Hmm

No mirror list found

Tried etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist says acess denied

Command not found

Sudo /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Hmm

Ok populated

Lots of servers

[magic minnow]

@steady sail

Wooting just got overthrown

[pastel nacelle]

Hmm

[leaden kiln]

[pastel nacelle]

Mirror list populated

I see a bunch of commands at the bottom

How to input

[crimson wigeon]

^ usually means ctrl + the next key

So ^X would be ctrl + x

[pastel nacelle]

I dunno where to type lol

So i just type ctrl+o

And it wrote 136 lines

How do i uninstall apps

[umbral heron]

-Rscn

[pastel nacelle]

Mirrors worked

I am now the fast

@north tide 's goofiness inspires me.

If she can do it I might as well.

[umbral heron]

Time to learn vim

The best random number generator in existence

go sleep

[pastel nacelle]

Ree

Steam says i need windows for maple

[umbral heron]

Settings > Compatibility > Enable Steam Play > Proton Hotfix
By now I remember it by heart

[magic minnow]

The News network I work at hasn’t gone on air it’s been 40 minutes

The engineers are gonna get destroyed by the boss

[pastel nacelle]

Now how to fix discord

In arch

[umbral heron]

Fix, as in?

[umbral heron]

You got it from pacman?

[pastel nacelle]

Flatpak

-.-

What da faq

[umbral heron]

Ah, yeah, some flatpak stuff may/will be outdated and/or not work without fixes
I prefer using pacman stuff honestly, and there's official Discord package there too

[analog sinew]

my router is acting up

[pastel nacelle]

-.-

Discord no workie

What does missing ast and xhci_pci_renesas mean?

[umbral heron]

During pacman installation? Yeah, you can ignore that

[pastel nacelle]

Discord still blanl gray screen

[magic minnow]

Buy this one bro
https://rog.asus.com/us/networking/rog-rapture-gt-be98-pro/

[analog sinew]

ofc

[pastel nacelle]

ok i got

discord to work

I needed to purge the installation cache and refresh the app with CTRL+R

oh yeah i forgot woot doesnt work on firefox

[pastel nacelle]

weird

i had to reset my sudo password

after doing a firmware update

[halcyon moss]

thats not a thing

[pastel nacelle]

i unno

was telling me password incorrect

but my root password works

and was certain my root and sudo are the same

anyway remedied

how do i access power management in arch

the os turning on and off my audio witha popping noise is bugging me

[umbral heron]

On KDE in Settings > System > Power Management
About popping sound it may be problem with pipewire

[pastel nacelle]

huh

how do i swich pipewire to that other option i was looking at in install?

[umbral heron]

easiest way is to uninstall and install package again
Or you can look around for dependencies with pacman -Sii

[pastel nacelle]

hmm

is there something i can change in system

to stop firefox from low priority pausing streams when i tab out

in linux

[umbral heron]

Must be something Firefox specific then, never had that issue before

[pastel nacelle]

getting stutters and or stream pausing

i found out the issue with intel wifi

turning off power save

made a significant change
