Honestly, the sub fee is a great gatekeeping tool that stops iRacing being like F1 or GT7 lobbies.

[dull hollow]

ac evo kinda falling off

[rough osprey]

has it even started

[dull hollow]

updates are slow and the open world map still isnt out

As production speed improves further, the delivery times are expected to shrink from 3 months (today) to 1-3 days by the end of this year once we've caught up on all preorders. We reasonably expect to complete every order to-date by November.

update from 12min ago lol

[gusty kiln]

[rough osprey]

although i would be scared that they just release a new version randomly

[nimble arch]

It works though

[unkempt lake]

Ah yes the thing that's not supported by basically anyone

multimonitor is fucking trash on nvidia

I literally went from 3 monitors to a giant uw becauee i was sick of it

[nimble arch]

I saw someone on Twitch that plays iRacing using triple LG OLED TVs in an NVIDIA Surround setup

Talk about overkill

[unkempt lake]

I'm never going back to triple and if i do its not gonna be on nvidia

Literally

Third party tools manage surround better than nvidia themselves

[nimble arch]

It's easier to just use a 32:9 for iRacing these days

Also simpler in terms of setup

[lunar elm]

let them cook

i may not have a brain gentlemen but I have an idea

[dull hollow]

we've been letting them cook 💔

unfortunatly they burnt the air

[lunar elm]

time to take “radeon graphics” seriously

[lunar elm]

idk the driving feels kinda nice so far- optimisation needs work, heard multiplayer also needs work

[dull hollow]

ive justs been watching others play the game

like jimmy broadbent

[nimble arch]

Please no punterino Jimmer

[vagrant pagoda]

have you never used eyefintiy? it is worse XD

it took amd over a decade to make the mouse cursor work most of the time in eyefinity

[dull hollow]

unfortunate racing incident

[unkempt lake]

no cuz i switched to 32:9 at the same time lol

[gusty kiln]

Is there a way to set up 8:9-16:9-8:9 multi window easily with 32:9? Especially when gaming with the 16:9 section

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah display fusion

its a must for UW and mutli monitor

[gusty kiln]

[ashen spindle]

nvidia is still better for wide screen racing because amd doesnt compete in high end

single or multi monitor

[unkempt lake]

My 7900xtx disagrees

[ashen spindle]

yeah well idc what it says its not high end

[unkempt lake]

ok you're dumb lol

[gusty kiln]

What advantage does it have over fancy zones?

[unkempt lake]

How is an 80 class card not hi end

[ashen spindle]

you can say it might be enough for the usecase but its clearly not competing with a 5090 or 4090

[lunar elm]

as much as I’d like to one day get a triple monitor sim setup, its too expensive with a preference for all screens to be the same and requires a lot of space- Something rooms in singapore dont have

[vagrant pagoda]

give it a try, it has tones of features

[astral haven]

By that definition my 7990 is higher end lol

[unkempt lake]

Maybe but calling something like a 4080/5080/7900xtx not hi end is dumb

[lunar elm]

70Ti and 80 are high end rn
90 is in a class of its own I’d rather call it enthusiast

[gusty kiln]

Pro worth or nah

[astral haven]

And no 7990 is ewaste tier now not high end

[ashen spindle]

idk thats just not competing in my eyes

[fickle ore]

80 is def high end, this is word inflation speaking. 5090 is called a used car

[unkempt lake]

90 is i'm stupid with my money levels of hi end

[vagrant pagoda]

idk i have it for over a decade so idk what the feature diff is

[lunar elm]

rip xtx

[ashen spindle]

I'm not talking about value or cheap rpices

[gusty kiln]

Free doesn't have monitor splitting, so guess I'll need pro

[fickle ore]

thats literally where the word comes from

[unkempt lake]

I'm talking about tier

[astral haven]

Tier doesn't matter

[unkempt lake]

An 80 class tier is absolutely fucking hi end

[astral haven]

No

[ashen spindle]

if nvidia has a card 70% better then I dont see that as competing in the high end

[unkempt lake]

Ok yall are just insane

Genuinely

[ashen spindle]

I wish there was a better amd card, that doesnt magically create one lol

[lunar elm]

can we just say xx90 is enthusiast while (4070TiS)+70Ti/80 tier is high end

[fickle ore]

Definitely. Walk to a shop see 2k speakers or whatnot and regular folk will just question ur sanity

[ashen spindle]

w/e then amd doesnt compete in the enthusiast tier, I dont really care about the naming

[unkempt lake]

I think you drank too much jensen kool aid

[lunar elm]

I’d say any card that is comfortable playing in 4k even WITH the use of featureset like upscaling and FG without shitting itself somewhere is high end

[somber coral]

Imo 30 series + is high end

[fickle ore]

Dude 70 is enthusiast tier

[somber coral]

Or mid end

[lunar elm]

im not talking about series, im talking about tier

[fickle ore]

First titan when it came was obscene tier

[somber coral]

Yeah 70 is high

60 and below are budget cards mostly no?

[lunar elm]

https://tenor.com/view/buckshot-roulettee-gif-17429044931567597973

[fickle ore]

Peoiple were really laughing at someone spending over 1k for a Titan class gpu

Thats only 10 years ago

[steady sail]

5050 is the best high tier card

[lunar elm]

70 is high end then 60 is supposed to be midrange?

idk what yall on man

[fickle ore]

its mid tier - enthusiast tier - high end - used car tier

[astral haven]

I have a 6800 gtx, is that high end?

[fickle ore]

U guys drank the marketing PR kool aid so much

[lunar elm]

i consider midrange to be 1440p capable cards, its literally in between 1080p (Entry lvl) and High ene/Enthusiast being 4k

[unkempt lake]

Jensen juice

https://tenor.com/view/slushie-watermelon-sour-patch-kids-froster-circle-k-froster-slush-gif-4189497683135091089

[astral haven]

No
Its ewaste tier, its well over a decade old

[wheat plume]

1080p is fine for gaming for me
1440p for everything else

[steady sail]

for me any xx90 class card is a Titan Class change my mind xd
any xx80 is high-end
any xx70 is Mid-High-end
any xx60 is Mid-tier
any xx50 why even bother

[ashen spindle]

it was about setups with people using tripple monitor for racing setups,sometimes even tripple ultrawide, you're not going to run that on a 5060, you'd ideally want the best card, and there amd isnt close, I dont care about how you call that gpu tier or what you think is value for 1080p

the point was never about a strict definion of high end or halo or wahtever

thought that would be obvious...

[unkempt lake]

I used a 2080 back then and then i switched to a 7900xtx both provided great racing experiences

[astral haven]

So a 7990 is Titan class?

[unkempt lake]

And my 7900xtx still does

[fickle ore]

words matter and someone needs to touch grass once in a while if they start considering 80 class not being high end imo

[unkempt lake]

Trying to pretend you need a 90 class card for this shit is ridiculous

[lunar elm]

xx90= enthusiast/All in
xx70ti/80 rn= High end due to them becoming essentially the same chip
xx60ti (high vram vers)/xx70=midrange
xx50 and xx60= entry level

[astral haven]

Again 6800 gtx is over a decade old
Is it still high end?

[ashen spindle]

I never said you NEED it either all I said was

nvidia is still better for wide screen racing

and surprise surprise, a 5090 is better than a 7900xtx

[unkempt lake]

Nvidia is better at anything if you buy a 5090

[ashen spindle]

better doesnt meam minimum spec

[ashen spindle]

correct thats what I said

[fickle ore]

New generation will make older gpus less attractive but it doesnt change the fact 80 class was high end AT THE TIME

[astral haven]

And its not that time any more

Now is now and then is then

[ashen spindle]

amd doesnt compete with nvidia in [INSERT PREFEERED TIER NAME FOR xx90]

[fickle ore]

Yeah but u paid 1k+ for it and u cant get that money back

so u bought a high end tier card

idk what ur saying

[lunar elm]

not enough raster?
not enough raytracing capability?
not enough vram?
want the best upscaler to compensate for 4k being demanding asf?
5090 solves all those problems

[astral haven]

No I paid like $30 lol

[fickle ore]

Well thats semantics

is 5090 ti not a high end if I steal it so its like 0$?

[astral haven]

My contemporary card was a 6200 le?

[lunar elm]

AMD after seeing their 7900XTX get smoked by the 4090:

There was an attempt.

[steady sail]

i cant wait for the RTX 6090 AI Super Max with 92gb vram

[astral haven]

The 5090 Ti is not a high-end card because it's a scam and fake.

[lunar elm]

The only time a 5080 would be recommended over a 5070ti is for video editors

like rn apart from getting the FE at its “MSRP” its pretty shit

[steady sail]

but my 5% performance boost

[fickle ore]

even 70ti feels like too much money spent for regular gaming

[lunar elm]

5070Ti buys you into entry level 4k

5080 well

ur still technically in entry lvl 4k xd

[fickle ore]

Or u can use 4060 and lower settings to hit 4k

That seems like a forgotten cheat code

[lunar elm]

dude has the entire car’s dashboard lit up

[ashen spindle]

well they had something to beat the 5090 but alas they said no to making it so now we cant have good prices

[lunar elm]

wdym they had something to beat the 5090

[steady sail]

even when we had the 4090 vs 7900xtx there wasnt any good prices

[ashen spindle]

they originally had a halo gpu planned for rdna4 that was like 2x 9070

[lunar elm]

I highly doubt it’ll still reach 5090 region, 4090 is possible for them tho

[fickle ore]

AMD should spend like 1 billion to consult mckinsey to change their logo from red to green for people to assume they are more efficient and environmental friendly. Thats like instant mshare gain. Being at 4% gamer card mshare is lol.

[ashen spindle]

oh no it was a massive chiplet card

[lunar elm]

looking at the 9070xt rn compared to a 4090 its still a 40% headroom for them to catch up

[ashen spindle]

yeah and they would've had like double the WGPs

[lunar elm]

I know they could have done something bigger but opted not to- But I still doubt they could close the gap higher up to 80% where the 5090 is rn

not to mention 4nm is hardly any better than 5nm

[ashen spindle]

node doesnt matter amd and nvidia are on the same node

N4C was 216 CUs

[lunar elm]

I tried to get the 5090 working as a egpu and its a no go

[vagrant pagoda]

i mean amd has no interest in competing with 90s

[lunar elm]

I dont think it’ll allow me to install the drivers at all- it just kept giving the loading circle

[vagrant pagoda]

the market has changed and no one wants highend workstation they want low end DC cards for workstations

[lunar elm]

Unless the laptop already has a nvidia dgpu inside ion think its possible to get the driver installed which kinda sucks ig

[ashen spindle]

yeah thats part of why it got canned sadly

[vagrant pagoda]

intel is smart going for low end workstation

[lunar elm]

tbf amd has been just trailing behind

[vagrant pagoda]

in the next few years 200w-300w ai gpus are going to be in most workstations

[ashen spindle]

intel isnt smart intel is scaling up so they start from igpu and cant go higher yet, they need to get higher because margins are not there for them yet

[vagrant pagoda]

its why amd has the 9700 pro with 32gb

[lunar elm]

30 series 3090 had 24gb vram while 6950xt only had 16, which they upped with the XTX which got entirely gapped by the 4090- I dont think they were expecting that xd

[vagrant pagoda]

nah price per gb is huge right now

and intel just smoked it

[steady sail]

i mean ngreedia is 1 gen ahead of AMD or even 1,5 gen ahead

[unkempt lake]

me who got my 7900xtx for dirt cheap be like huh

[lunar elm]

intel has to do it for cheap its just how business works

[unkempt lake]

1250cad 7 months after launch @steady sail

[lunar elm]

new player enters the market up against 2 giants- How else is that noob gonna get business at all

[unkempt lake]

Then again it was a price mistake lol

But yeah

[vagrant pagoda]

amd put the r9700 out with 48gb for 1500 running up on the rtx pro 5000 at 5K

[steady sail]

yeah it was around 2000 cad in Hungary even after launch

[vagrant pagoda]

b60x2 at 1200 is compatitive

[lunar elm]

what 9700 with 48gb am i missing sonething

[unkempt lake]

At launch it was like 1500-1600cad

[vagrant pagoda]

ai pro r9700

workstation version with 48gb

its 1300 not 1500

gb per slot and per dollar is huge

lots of people dont care how fast it runs, just that the model dose run

so nvidia has blackwell screeming fast but at a massive premium

you can get 4 r9700s for the same price as a single rtx pro 5000

[steady sail]

most of the time the 7900XTX was around 1850 cad in Hungary or even Higher upwards of 2250 cad

[lunar elm]

i know what a 9700 ai is but wheres ur 48gb coming from

[vagrant pagoda]

derp i got b60x2 and r9700 mixed

still you can get 4 r9700s for 1 5000

[vapid ruin]

assuming you're okay with making your own inference software, AMD is pretty nice. Moar/faster vram is always nice for AI since you take more hit running AI on both ram/vram vs just having slower GPU

[vagrant pagoda]

most inference supports multi gpu these days

[vapid ruin]

yesh, that's why I wanna get the 5070tiS assuming it's 24gb, to mix it with 3090

[vagrant pagoda]

if the model fits in 32gb you will be screeming

[gentle warren]

could i ask a question here per chance (as im seeing a conversation is going on and this question is completely unrelated lol)

[vagrant pagoda]

if not 4 gpus will still be faster just not almost 4x like with ddp

[vagrant pagoda]

just ask

[gentle warren]

ye just wanted to ask to ensure i wasnt disturbing a conversation yk xd

whats the diffrence between these switches as they are both HE? and why are they diffrent

[vagrant pagoda]

going to def swap my a380+1080ti in my server with dual b50s

[steady sail]

me who wanna build a home server finally with a 2600x and a gtx 1070

[vagrant pagoda]

cpu is a 4790k XD

[vagrant pagoda]

left is a gateron?

[steady sail]

lol

[gentle warren]

im not sure all ik is that both are HE

[steady sail]

i have a i5-3340 somewhere

[vagrant pagoda]

he is just hall effect, meaning it uses magnets

[gentle warren]

yeah ik that

[vagrant pagoda]

i went from 4790k to 5800x3d so its the old desktop Xd

[gentle warren]

idk the manufacturer but i do know they are using magnets but why are they diffrent shapes and are they interchangable?

[vagrant pagoda]

the topis just for stability

[steady sail]

i went from a i5-2430m -> i5-3340 -> R5 2600X -> R7 5800X3D

[vagrant pagoda]

the og lekkers are a little wobbly

[gentle warren]

but they are basicly all the same switch casing and can just be swapped?

[vagrant pagoda]

i dont think show, arent the other swtichs razors?

[gentle warren]

"kotex shaft"

[vagrant pagoda]

no they are differente

i think the only box stem for wooting is the everglide right?

but this is more #🔧│keyboard_modding not #🔌│tech

[gentle warren]

so basicly
the switches are just magnets and nothing else really
but they arent interchangable while being on the surface identical

[gentle warren]

well its not for modding purposes lol and it seemed more tech related imo

[vagrant pagoda]

changing swtiches is moddin

[gentle warren]

fair ig

[bright briar]

i didnt teach you nothing the only thing you know is to constantly touch your pc and mess shit up when you didnt need to touch anything in the first place

[brisk topaz]

Is 850w enough for 7800x3d and rx 9070 xt when playing at 1440p/4k if pbo is enabled and gpu has power limit maxed on an oc model?

Or would i need a bigger psu?

[umbral heron]

Yes, yes it is

[dull hollow]

i have a 9800x3d and a 9070xt running at both (maxed 85w with -30 pbo) and 370w under load

also using an 850w psu, probably wouldve gotten away with 750

[brisk topaz]

Microcenter had the 850 on sale for $75 less for a corsair rmx

For 750w vs 850w

[umbral heron]

Also I see that's quite an upgrade over what you've considered several hours ago

[brisk topaz]

Gpu and cpu wise?

[dull hollow]

well it depends on what quality/manufacture makes that 850

[umbral heron]

yeah

[brisk topaz]

I decided to go with rx 9070 xt for the best 4k performance without having to go with novid… i mean nvidia

I kid i kid i just hate nvidia from past experiences

[umbral heron]

https://tenor.com/view/wolf-of-wall-street-jordan-belfort-leonardo-di-caprio-one-of-us-jonah-hill-gif-5441859

[brisk topaz]

I even preferred amd back in the day

[dull hollow]

i play 1440p, no clue how itd handle 4k

[brisk topaz]

Is the $100 worth it for the 9070 xt over the base 9070?

[brisk topaz]

For the games i play it will be fine. Most intensive games are helldivers 2 (fine at 60fps for me) and bf6

Then older games like wow gmod warcraft 3 etc

And a few new games depending

[dull hollow]

i was getting about 135 fps ultra preset @1440p in bf6 beta

[steady sail]

bf6 beta i was around 120fps stable @1440p ultra

[brisk topaz]

Bet i could get 144 at 4k if i tweaked settings between medium to high and still look good

[glass stag]

depends if you want to be able to play new games that all require more than 8gb vram

[brisk topaz]

Im always fine with stuff on medium too if needed for better frames. Only singleplayer i crank graphics

[brisk topaz]

Is 9070 only 8gb vram?

[steady sail]

16gb

[glass stag]

Ah nevermind i confused it for an 8gb

[steady sail]

only the 9060 has 8gb and 16gb model

[brisk topaz]

No worries nico

Afaik isnt alan wake 2 the only vram hungry game?

[steady sail]

there is a few more

[dull hollow]

bf6 was pretty hungry

[brisk topaz]

Oh shit how much vram did it eat up

[dull hollow]

it used 12gbs of vram

for me at least

[brisk topaz]

Thats not bad

Long as its not a gtx 970 or 980? Where it only had half its vram or whatever it was

[glass stag]

Indiana Jones
Doom Dark Ages
Returnal
Battlefield 6
Final Fantasy XVI
Mafia
Borderlands 4 i think too

[dull hollow]

of course depending on the situation

and what youre looking at/going on around you

since everything blows up

[brisk topaz]

Are there any microcenter discount codes you guys know of

Even 5% helps

[steady sail]

[dull hollow]

nope

[dull hollow]

im assuming youre already getting cpu+mb+ram combos

[brisk topaz]

Yep. 7600x3d asus mobo gskill ram. Asus is my go to mobo brand

B650 gaming strix wifi i believe it is

ASUS B650-A ROG Strix Gaming WiFi AMD AM5 ATX

Gigabyte always gave me issues where they run strong then randomly fail to post and brick themselves even back in the 90’s and my last build before the last had a gigabyte board that did that same shit

[dull hollow]

i mean other than that i dont really think they have discounts, just wahtever they have on sale

[unkempt lake]

Pretty similar to the combo nico got at canada computers

[dull hollow]

i think wise is US

[brisk topaz]

$150 more than the combo i have with a worst mobo?

[unkempt lake]

It's canadian

433usd

[dull hollow]

its 430 us on microcenter

450 for that motherboard upgrade

[unkempt lake]

But yeah the strix is better than the tuf

[unkempt lake]

Oh they have the same tuf

But the atx version

but yeah anyhow pricing is pretty damn similar canada computers has some neat bundle deals a bit like microcenter in the us

Not as good but pretty damn good

[brisk topaz]

The $450 one is the one im getting

I dont like asus tuf line

[rough osprey]

my bios setting got reset after removing cpu bruh

[dull hollow]

We have less competition so

[brisk topaz]

Isnt that supposed to happen

[rough osprey]

i reused the same cpu tho so kinda annoying

should have remembered 🤬

[brisk topaz]

Save your bios next time to a usb thumb drive

You can reset to it in future

[rough osprey]

ye my motherboard doesnt like any usb

[brisk topaz]

You can save to it in your bios itself to save settings

[brisk topaz]

Ima guess msi or gigabyte

asrock

[brisk topaz]

Oof

Wtf happened to asrock

[rough osprey]

nah always been like that for me xf

even before the 9800x3d things

[brisk topaz]

My asrock board for intel 8000 series was finicky too

[reef patrol]

That doesn't really help, when you need to reset your BIOS after something goes wrong. Saving to a thumbdrive is the way.

[steady sail]

or just dont change anything in the bios

[vagrant pagoda]

no it will train whenn it needs to

[brisk topaz]

The long boot times suck

it shouldnt be trasiing every boot

Unplug. Hold fn and backspace. Plug in while holding the keys

Then re flash firmware.

Let go of keys after plugging in

[brisk topaz]

Any luck?

let me try

wdym by reflash

[brisk topaz]

Okay

Is peerless assassin the quietest non rgb air cooler for 7600x3d?

[unkempt lake]

I mean the 7600x3d barely heats up

The fans wont even run much :P

[brisk topaz]

I know but is it the quietest air cooler

[unkempt lake]

no but the fans will barely run so you won't hear it

[brisk topaz]

Fair enough

[unkempt lake]

And unless you wanna grab a very expensive noctua

[rough osprey]

passive cooling 👀

[brisk topaz]

Doodoo brown noctua themed build

Khaki and poo brown

[glass stag]

Don't forget to put the sticker on the cpu for better cooling

[brisk topaz]

Yep gotta give the case a spoiler for an additional 30fps

Tokyo drift edition

[vagrant pagoda]

i got noctua cooler with no noctua fans, peak heresy

[brisk topaz]

Is the montech air 906 max case good

Air 903 max i mean

[rough osprey]

how can you....

[vagrant pagoda]

i mean it didnt come with fans

[rough osprey]

NH P1?

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah XD

p1 in a torrent, mega chonks

[brisk topaz]

Anyone remember the raijintek heatsink for gpu’s that let you mount two noctua 120mm fans to it?

[gusty kiln]

Can't wait for noctua thermal siphon

[vagrant pagoda]

i have like 3 of them

they still make them

[brisk topaz]

Really

[gusty kiln]

Aib should start selling fanless gpu with just the heatsink and 120mm fan mounts

[vagrant pagoda]

poeple are too dumb

[gusty kiln]

And 4pin fan header on the pcb

[brisk topaz]

I agree

[rough osprey]

why does my gpu overheat

[brisk topaz]

That 980 i had with the two noctua 120mm fans was the quietest and coolest running gpu i ever owned

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah the whole tarrif thing nuked the supply though

i just strip the fans off and use zip ties

idk why the gpu aio adapters died

thats the real question

[rough osprey]

cant wait for my fanss

[brisk topaz]

I support tariff’s tbh. Will force people to buy in our own country and bring manufacturing jobs back

[vagrant pagoda]

like g12 and hg10 were so nice

[brisk topaz]

Will also help fix our homeless problem by bringing more jobs

[reef patrol]

(It did not)

[vagrant pagoda]

then they just stopped makign them

[brisk topaz]

Not yet. Things dont fix overnight

[reef patrol]

They won't change, period.

[brisk topaz]

They will and have. The job market changed here from it

[reef patrol]

[brisk topaz]

Mansen are you european

[lyric hatch]

Yeah people lost jobs, you think it it costs 500% more to manufacture in the US that people will move manufacturing there not including upfront costs of setting up a factory from scratch in the US

[rough osprey]

no one lives in the US anyway

[brisk topaz]

A lot of the old tooling is still here lol. They re opened the old factory here because of tariffs

Brought back 300 something jobs

[lyric hatch]

[brisk topaz]

Brought back thousands of jobs in the main city too

[brisk topaz]

I was being childish

[reef patrol]

The tariffs don't work for so many reasons.

Manufacturing doesn't exist and has to be built - that's a massive up-front in a very unstable political environment.
Educated workers are hard to find, since manufacturing has gone.
Raw materials are also hit by tariffs in many cases, making the import costs of finished products less of a cost difference and a more stable approach, since you have the manufacturing and up-front investments already covered.

[vagrant pagoda]

workers thing was big even before tarrifs

[brisk topaz]

Yep all of this is true

[reef patrol]

Oh and of course the good old classsic - Trickle down doesn't work. None of those tariffs go back to citizens, it's all going to more company tax cuts and billionaire savings

[unkempt lake]

That's not how it works

[vagrant pagoda]

you cant get entry machinsts even if you pay 30+

[brisk topaz]

But watch the difference in 15-20 years. People never think of long term

Always short term selfish thinking

[reef patrol]

See "unstable political environment"

[brisk topaz]

Aero precision can LMAO god that company is ass terrible machining quality

[vagrant pagoda]

they are doing cnc not manual

[lyric hatch]

Yeah thing is the majority of things can't be manufactured in the US currently so while opening old factorys is all well and good for the industries that can do it putting a blanket tariff on everything else is short sighted at best

[ashen spindle]

in 15 years china has a working chip manufacturing that they never would've started if there wasnt tarrifs and restrictions on them

[unkempt lake]

see ruining the trade relationship with your closest economic ally

[brisk topaz]

Economic ally that hates us

[unkempt lake]

We didn't hate yall

[reef patrol]

Also see: Deporting immigrants, who are the only ones who'll work in many industries at this point.

[rough osprey]

yall mean

[ashen spindle]

china can add whatever they want because they have chains of fabrication set up, that isnt possible in the US or EU because neither place can se tup a supply cahin like that

[unkempt lake]

Thinking that is ridiculous

[brisk topaz]

Said immigrants also brought flesh eating tapeworm to our country

how do you guys feel about android basically killing sideloading

[lyric hatch]

Sad but not suprised

[rough osprey]

makes sense

[brisk topaz]

Im on iphone

But i miss my s4 active with removable battery and having sideloaded youtube vanced

Used to carry spare batteries in my backpack and swap batteries instead of sitting by a charger

Am i a boomer

[unkempt lake]

I feel like killing sideloading just removes what makes android different from ios

[brisk topaz]

Isnt android ran by google

Googles known to kill off anything they did that was actually good

Or is it not google

[pale sigil]

Ran no, the baseline is made by Google but all companies add onto it.

im personally not up to date with root exploits but the last time i wanted to root my phone the only option that actually worked was flashing custom bootloader and then going from there

[vagrant pagoda]

love how jon at primitive tech still making the same videos for like 10 years, he could get 5 views and still make the same video

[ashen spindle]

unless you do like RAM OC and need intake over the ram while also having radiator on top I suppose

but yeah otherwise its just something to look nice, doesnt do anything functional even if done better

Yea this is ass i cant get internet at all even with ethernet plugged in wifi wont even work

How do i get my pc to get internet so i can download drivers

[lunar elm]

wifi ethernet or just use ur phone’s mobile data via hotspot

[umbral heron]

You can plug your phone with USB cable and enable USB tethering

[brisk topaz]

It wouldnt detect my phone

[brisk topaz]

Wouldnt detect my phone had hotspot on and usb only enabled

Like it showed my phone plugged in but internet wouldnt detect it

[reef patrol]

You either download the drivers on a different PC and move it over with a USB stick.
Or you use your phone's USB hotspot and hope it includes drivers on the phone that just run.

Anyone dealt with Amazon DE recently (tech orders)? I ordered something last sunday, nothing happened since beyond that confirmation that day.

[old marlin]

why tf did you order on amazon

[reef patrol]

Are Amazon the seller? Cause that's usually not the case.

[old marlin]

there is so many good tech retailers with usually MUCH better prices

[warm ore]

Yeah it is the seller, item is highly sought after, many ordered recently so on so forth, first time they stalled more than a day. Quite sus.

[reef patrol]

Amazon offers a refund after a while. You can go to the order page and see when.

[old marlin]

i've seen them deny it in cases like this

and then that can drag on for months

[warm ore]

I can cancel it anytime, question is, when does the money get back. Also theres no low price alternative for this item right now. But they are truly ratting away 7 days out of the 14 at this point.

out of 14?

They tried that - apparently couldn't connect?

[brisk topaz]

It didnt detect my phone for internet. Just kept saying no internet access

Tried

[ashen spindle]

at your friends pc too?

[crimson wigeon]

Maybe their operator is one of those evil ones that block tethering, apparently that's a thing in some places

[plush stirrup]

For me they’re one of the only ones that honor warranty 🤣

[crimson wigeon]

In that case they could download driver with phone and then USB transfer it over

[brisk topaz]

Can i do that. How

[magic minnow]

4 more days until Apple revolutionizes the mobile market again

[crimson wigeon]

I don't know download the driver using phone web browser, then plug in to computer and do USB file transfer ez

[umbral heron]

By... releasing the same phone as last year

We are so proud that we... um... removed USB port this year!
Now new iPhone is completely portless

they overlap because most do the same

congratulations you just screwed someone else over

[umbral heron]

That's what aim training does to your brain

it sounded like a very deliberate thing you did

given the bragging that appears to be the case

[lunar elm]

Get a lenovo laptop in general, you want at least 16gb of ram, 24/32 is preferred
You also want a lightweight chassis, I recommend 1.5kg and below
Best CPUs in efficiency on the market rn are the 258v and AI 9 HX370 respectively for windows laptops

Can we like get this guy out for committing fraud to screw over someone else and pretending like he’s right

[lunar elm]

Lenovo because from my experience, Acer laptops hate living, HP stands for hinge problems, MSI low end is shit, Asus is overpriced alot of the times

[halcyon moss]

Despicable

[magic minnow]

That’s why they got rid of the shoplifting subreddit

[magic minnow]

[reef patrol]

Bragging about cheating a legitimate company in this way is l rizz and cringe as the kids say it. And definitely not something we want to see being posted here.

[lunar elm]

all you couldve done is not talk/brag about it and kept it to urself, now everyone is gonna shame you

[magic minnow]

To be shamed by someone you need to care about their opinion though?

Like was a genuinely expecting a company based discord to praise me for that?

[deft copper]

is this good for the price? (AI 9 HX 370, 64 gb of ram, 1 tb of storage)

sit down boy Im not that petty to commit fraud and immature to tell random people on the internet I did

[lunar elm]

that ram amount is overkill for school

[umbral heron]

ThinkPad good

[magic minnow]

No but clearly childish enough to think your opinion matters online

[deft copper]

i wish i could drop it down but apparently the 9 hx 370 is locked with 64

[lunar elm]

Ur clearly on copium rn lmao, ur talkin in a public discord server

[deft copper]

maybe another model might have less but ill have to check

[lunar elm]

All ur doing is sticking to ur delusions that you’re correct

[alpine patio]

not too bad

[lunar elm]

Is it out of ur budget? spec wise it’ll last very long

[magic minnow]

I never said I was correct though? Don’t assume though, then you make an ass out of you and me

actual delusional thinking you wouldnt get negative feedback for posting this in a public dc server- Disappointed in you.

[frozen ingot]

people have gotten fired for opinions they've voiced online so there must be some childish employers out there

[lunar elm]

What about the intel option? Their igpu and encoder are better suited for more specific tasks

[magic minnow]

I don’t know if you lack reading comprehension but where does it show that I was expecting positive feedback?

I posted what I posted, every action has a consequence either positive or negative. Pay attention in school

[lunar elm]

“Lets go!!”

Who’s the lets in this? Its just you.

Drop it. Ur going nowhere with ur “arguments”

[frozen ingot]

so you told us expecting to get shit on?

[magic minnow]

It is a company based discord, could have gone either way

[steady sail]

👀

[umbral heron]

iGPU not anymore
And encoder is the only thing it has going for it
Better to take AMD nowadays for something for uni

[lunar elm]

Ive heard their igpu is better suited in like some other video editing program that I forgot. In standard play they are pretty even except for strix halo

[umbral heron]

Yeah, but if you wanna play mostly video editing, for that price go for Macbook

[lunar elm]

do stupid shit expect stupid results

[lunar elm]

I mean, all I brought up is an arguing point for intel xd

I’d look at 258v first tho

[ashen spindle]

yes if your software makes use of quicksync it can still be a advantageous there isnt really a am equivalent of it so for some editing tools they QoL is much nicer on it

what resolution is the laptop

[deft copper]

1200p

[lunar elm]

lowkey I expected something closer to like 2k

for 1.6k

[deft copper]

same

i think its the ram unfort

[lunar elm]

did u look into 258v options

[umbral heron]

1200p is more than 2K (aka 1080p)

[lunar elm]

that is a hell lot of ram for a laptop not dedicated to video editing xd

[deft copper]

they only have the h varient which is weird

[lunar elm]

can i see

what is a 258h tf

I already thought atackblabla was a twat. Now I know he is

h variants are arrow lake laptops, so 255h or similar

sorted by thinkpads with all intel processors

its either U for slim laptops or H for the regular

[lunar elm]

weird no 258v

[ashen spindle]

they have them its just a mess to find them

[lunar elm]

disappointing price lmao

[deft copper]

damn

[magic minnow]

looks much better than I could have ever imagined

[fickle ore]

wat

that looks worse than my 100€ xiaomi

[magic minnow]

I’m digging the stove top camera module

[fickle ore]

Yeah tastes are different

The ever slick

[magic minnow]

I’d love a Xiaomi Ultra 15 I love the big eye ball on the back

But know nothing about their os

[plush stirrup]

Buy it and return your old one, you seem fond of that

[magic minnow]

I might wait for the thermal reviews

But since I give my phones to my family members I always have to eat the cost of a full price phone

[fickle ore]

This would look good on my coffee desk

[lunar elm]

Buy it, refund and put his old one in*

[plush stirrup]

It's what I meant 😇

[magic minnow]

I’m gonna be living rent free in lil bros head

[lunar elm]

You're an expert at being delusional ya know that

[magic minnow]

I’m sure Jeff Bezos appreciates your existence

[lunar elm]

its not even about jeff bezos nor amazon itself

you literally just screwed the next person buying the product

[magic minnow]

On an open box deal which has a better return policy?

[lunar elm]

And how do you know thats an open box deal and not amazon selling at the same price?

[magic minnow]

They don’t do that, they have a really good open box deal.

Well deals since they have tiers to them

[plush stirrup]

It'll eventually track back to you, just wait for them to start caring 🙂

[magic minnow]

And if it does then that’s all part of the consequences of my actions?

Simple accountability

[lunar elm]

dudes on another level of delusional i think we lost him bois

he cant be saved

[magic minnow]

Like when they sent me the extra sticks of ram and I sent those back

[halcyon moss]

Let's all block/ignore him, so he'd be talking to a void

[magic minnow]

I can just leave if you want? Seeing as you’re an OG

Let me steal the Switchy emotes first though

[lunar elm]

https://www.pcgamesn.com/nvidia/geforce-rtx-5080-5070-ti-scrapped-rumor seems in line with the super refresh in 6 months

[ashen spindle]

bruh every time I see an article that just takes mlid as fact I get to see another "journalist" I can put on my mental block list

cease production lmfao these things get produced for quite some time into the next generation even

[umbral heron]

MLID is a great source of info
50% of the time he's right all the time

[lunar elm]

tbf gpus take like at least 6 months to make

[rough osprey]

they still making turing cards

[ashen spindle]

well yes but no, the chip but these would be using the same chip more or less with different PCBs and vram chips

so they can change them quite fast

the reason is that everything uses 2GB gddr7 chips and the 3GB chips only now became available so they couldnt do the 50% bigger vram cards on launch

[lunar elm]

more readily* available?

iirc 5090m uses 3gb modules

[ashen spindle]

not sure if it does, if yes then yeah you always have some earlier batches, but also no clue if those clock high enough for desktop cards

[plush stirrup]

🤣 we'll see I'm surprised they're not banned yet tbh

[ashen spindle]

24gb capacity according to TPU so seems like its 2gb chips still

[lunar elm]

256 bit bus

so its using 3gb modules

[magic minnow]

@bold coyote ban me appease the Jeff Bezos sympathizers

I’m ready

[ashen spindle]

cant find info on what specs the memory has, as per usualy for laptop specs, so yeah I guess they had maybe just enough for that or its lower clock memory

[frozen ingot]

its not amazon that's getting screwed

[halcyon moss]

24/3 =8
8*2 = 16

[plush stirrup]

Or you know discord tos 🤣 one can report discord messages for fraud for a reason

[lunar elm]

dude has no idea how businesses work at all

funny how 5090m according to tpu is only reaching 6800xt performance xd

take some flex tape (DLSS4) and boom problem solved

[marsh glade]

This is criminal return fraud and not only is the action itself morally reprehensible, but flaunting this in a public discord is both incredibly stupid and firmly against Wooting's ethics.

I have issued a 1 week timeout to demonstrate that this is utterly unacceptable, and have documented this in our internal mod logs.

Heed this warning, if you post about doing anything similar to that in the future, you will be permanently banned from our community.

[nimble arch]

I look forward to ordering AirPods Pro 3 in the not too distant future

[lunar elm]

same

[rough osprey]

they did what 😭

[fickle ore]

@gusty kiln stop selling amd bud

[ashen spindle]

just all semicon down again

[fickle ore]

ye 🙁

[ashen spindle]

aka its at a discount again just buy more

[fickle ore]

except broadcom at 9%

[fickle ore]

OOM

[ashen spindle]

should've printed more

[fickle ore]

yo im on parent leave

60% pay and wife gets like 10% bc she extended

[ashen spindle]

that good, babies can fetch a high price if you find the right buyer so you can invest it

[fickle ore]

Lul

[ashen spindle]

if you buy the dip right now in a few years you can but two babies back and have their future paid for!

[fickle ore]

u make 2 lmfao, EU needs more kids

AMD dip is quite steep tho... hmm.. dont give me ideas

[ashen spindle]

I mean, I remain convinced as long as the AI bubble doesnt pop before, amd will exceed their all time high

[vagrant pagoda]

no sell only buy

[fickle ore]

buy buy buy

[vagrant pagoda]

just gotta find a good deal on a striaght trade, baby for amd stock

[fickle ore]

if u have family heirlooms in closet go sell it and buy

[vagrant pagoda]

no sell only buy

[ashen spindle]

too bad rapidus isnt IPOd yet

[vagrant pagoda]

i think the jp gov is keeping it domestic

[ashen spindle]

just have them keep 51% shares

[vagrant pagoda]

they whole point is to keep china out

so its all private equiity

the point of rapidus and us tsmc is to prevent tech collapes if china fucks with tiawan

[ashen spindle]

having minority shares on the market isnt stopping that

[unkempt lake]

Whats even new about them

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah but they dont care to have the numbers public

[nimble arch]

I don’t know but I’ll be upgrading from AirPods Pro 1. That’ll be my last lightning device retired.

[ashen spindle]

I mean they licensed the tech from IBM there isnt much private about the numbers in that sense

[fickle ore]

just buy a % of these

[ashen spindle]

if I start buying softbank shares you know someone stole my account

[fickle ore]

Alternatively you could bet on Canon as a hedge vs ASML

[vagrant pagoda]

asml is part of rapidus too though

is canon even sub 10nm year?

[ashen spindle]

they say it can be used down to 2nm

[vagrant pagoda]

as far i have seen isnt canon only doing second sourcing for dod stuff though TI?

i dont think the kioxia stuff has entered production yet

[ashen spindle]

it seems like it could compete with EUV maybe but not high na EUV so not going to be leading edge tech

[unkempt lake]

I'll buy UwUs from wooting and return OwOs

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah but i dont think its making chips for production outside of the TI DOD stuff

[vagrant pagoda]

rapidus is all asml

[unkempt lake]

Good luck selling OwOs

oh wait the wooting fanbase would probably love that

[ashen spindle]

yeah not at the moment its more of a possibility, and it would be nice to have something that isnt EUV to work since we're going to need something that goes further than that

[vagrant pagoda]

until the duck hit squad repos moumou for the cost of the lost owos

[umbral heron]

Oop
Canadian is awake

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah it could be good for dram and flash as they arent as small

[unkempt lake]

yes and feeling so much better today

[ashen spindle]

dram cartel in shambles that they can make stuff cheaper

[vagrant pagoda]

dram cost is still going down

but yeah

being able to not need euv for dram/flash would be killer

[unkempt lake]

https://tenor.com/view/questionable-duck-duck-with-a-gun-gif-14925440

[ashen spindle]

if we get that in time maybe we do get ddr6 on client still for decent cost

[vagrant pagoda]

rapidus would just be amazing as more fabs is good

[ashen spindle]

yup

[vagrant pagoda]

tsmc has been pushing so hard with intel falling so far behind and samsung being hard to contract with

[ashen spindle]

samsung isnt hard to contract with

samsung is cheap as hell they just have shit yields

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah i ment like scale

its hard to get a contract for a million dies

[ashen spindle]

and yeah if intel has issues we need someone to catch up the volume they made

[vagrant pagoda]

jdm arm/risc cpus would be killer

imagaine a modern msx

japan could take on x86 and ms in one sweep

[ashen spindle]

yeaaa no

qualcom and msft together couldnt take on x86

[vagrant pagoda]

ms cant take on ms

also japan is super into domestic products

apple is pretty much the only non domestic product to have a majority market share

[ashen spindle]

yes but you are not getting to change japanese kids/teens/young adults to use a shit laptop/pc when its not working

phones you have other options that are not completely shit in comparison

[vagrant pagoda]

and sony had the mrket share on pcs until they fumbled it

but it could happen

and it wouldnt just be laptops/dekstops

[ashen spindle]

at best you could get a playstation pc/laptop thats just using amd hardware

[vagrant pagoda]

why use amd, the whole point it to use rapidus to make domestic part

[ashen spindle]

because thats going to fail

[astral haven]

Why not have Sony pressure amd to have rapidus as second sourcing vs tsmc

[ashen spindle]

dont think they need pressure as long as rapidus works well enough

sonoma valley would've been all on samsung if they would've pushed through with that

[astral haven]

Oh rapidus' pilot line started April 1 this year according to Wikipedia
Highly sus

[ashen spindle]

nah that lines up, they licensed the tech from ibm so its not completely unknwon and companies like tenstorrent have been working with them

PDK is supposedly done end of 26

so 2027 they could be making 2nm chips

[astral haven]

Ah and that is their very first node so not like there's any proof this isn't happening already

[ashen spindle]

well it wouldn't make sense yet before the node can even perform for that market

[vagrant pagoda]

i bet sony could kill for jdm soc for playstation

[ashen spindle]

with them going onto an even deeper partnership with amd, doubt it

they codevelop tech like future FSR versions now

also for anything like backwards compat having the same ISA is going to make so much cheaper

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah but youre foregetting how racist the average japanesene person is aginst sea, and how strong nationisim is there still

[ashen spindle]

doesnt matter as long as they arent kicking cerny out as playstation lead

[merry falcon]

my laptop is not the best and its lagging even in crazy games how should i do to do its not lagging

[ashen spindle]

whats the laptop

[merry falcon]

idk

[ashen spindle]

whats the cpu/gpu in it

[merry falcon]

some old windoes laptop 11

no 10

[ashen spindle]

doesnt matter
