highest speed on stock ram is 4800 afaik
which is xmp
and amd boards can use xmp profiles

XMP is OC
latent mural
otherwise you can use the highest jedec
which is 3200 now
but intel didn't update their plattform for that

feral jolt
yeah ill probably just get the g305 u rite
i am claw gripper so mouse size isnt that big of a deal since i barely touch it anyway
and i really dont want the 502 or 903 that have too many buttons and cracks for hand grease to build up in
thats what turned me off from the glorious model O is that cleaning all those holes would be awful
simplicity is better
Another big plus for the 305 is the battery life
I'd say I'm a heavy user and 60 hours on a g pro internal battery would likely start diminishing significantly within a couple years

anyone know how to make ElementaryOS change volume on my speakers instead of the hdmi sound output automatically on startup?? It plays audio through the speakers but doesnt control the volume for them.
wheat plume
in pavucontrol, if I want my mic to work I have to set it as an output too :/
so it controls the mic output volume by default but plays audio through the speakers
whenI turn on the PC, it plays the audio through my speakers but when I want to change volume it thinks the microphone is an audio output and changes the volume for that instead of the speakers
so I must go to sound settings and select my speakers as the sound output
i know...
the buttons on my keyboard
this is the only OS i had this issue on
they were off always
I didnt touvh those
the buttons on my mouse work for media controls
hmm
right
idk what else would be picking them up
I just know that my mouse buttons (the ones I assigned to act as media buttons a while ago) work fine
yeah its there
same
character limit 😂
hang on
wrong order...
its set up the way i want it to be when I turn on the PC
Yup
the audio device that plays audio is the Chroma speakers, but the volume changes on the microphone
and when I go into sound settings the microphone is selected as the sound output
ah....
I see
i havent changed keybindings at all
they are off
what OS you use?
they always have for me except on Manjaro i3
odd :/
and the media buttons on my mouse always worked too except again on Manjaro i3
Manjaro anythiing else they worked on
Gnome, plasma, mate
I guess, also I think for the media keys , the mouse sends commands directly to the OS or whatever
cause I dont need software for those prgrammed keys to work
I hope Manjaro i3 works with my speakers, cause last time I could never get it to work with my bluetooth speaker
cause I wanna go back to i3
so badly
I tried to install the Regolith Linux PPA, it installed and I logged into the Regolith session and nothing happened, I immedaitely got logged out again

told my friend to do a little pea for the thermal paste on his first build
and he sends me this 😂
ashen spindle
I mean looks fine, but I'd ask him what kind of peas he's eating 
earnest osprey
Just tell him to spread it out and wipe some of the excess if needed
ashen spindle
nah pressure from mounting the cooler spreads it good enough
earnest osprey
it really doesn't
tends to make a couple degrees difference
spreading it out manually is more important that the amount
timid chasm
It'd be worth 10 degrees, imo. Not so much for 2 or 3 unless you're hitting high temps already
earnest osprey
It takes like 30 sec to spread it out..
I will take a free cooling upgrade for 30 sec of my time
timid chasm
But it's basically negligible unless you're already at high temps
earnest osprey
It's nice to be absolutely sure that the whole ihs is covered with an even layer, though
timid chasm
I guess. Not sure whyd it'd matter though for 99% of users
earnest osprey
considering the amount of arguing that goes on about thermal paste amount,
it might be useful for people to know that it doesn't matter if you do it right by spreading it out
Let's be honest, the people that are concerned about thermal paste amount would take that extra time
timid chasm
"do it right" is highly subjective though

I've always done peas like shown above with zero problems. Heck I use more for my loop to ensure good contact across the entire top.
zenith sonnet
Prio 1 is to make sure as much of the surface as possible is covered
Prio 2 is to make sure the layer is as thin as possible
Mounting pressure with adequate viscosity should make sure of that
latent mural
As long as you don't use obviously unreasonable amounts
zenith sonnet
How much performance gain is to be expected if you use actively chilled water to keep the CPU at 30°C instead of 50 under full load?
Does that give you another 100 or 200Mhz OC?
solar hinge
we usually ask you these kind of questions...
zenith sonnet
🤔
3950X was able to hit 5.1GHz all core at - 150°C
I can't tell how much of that is to be attributed to the voltage, and how much to the lower temperature
Ryzen overclocking is going to be different though
All core OCs are a thing of the past
feral jolt
depends on the chip really
if you get a lucky bin you can probably get more than 200 mhz out of 20c

Making the temp so low tends to help with hotspots

zenith sonnet
@feral jolt How do you get CO2 to be liquid?
You could also just get a peltier element to cool the water
Well, it's probably better to use a compressor
earnest osprey
Peltier isn't really meant for anything that isn't both low heat output and extremely tight on space.
It's also good for things where maintaining a thermal threshold is more important than removing heat from the system
Like small refrigerated spaces
Definitely not the case for a cpu, it's allowed to get a bit warm as long as you get the heat away
zenith sonnet
I'm aware it's not particularly efficient
There are options that are way more energy efficient
earnest osprey
The main issue for the cpu situation is the thermal runaway
Since peltier gets less efficient the more heat there is to dissipate, which is the opposite of what heat pipes or water cooling does.
zenith sonnet
You would, if anything, use it to cool the water flowing to the CPU
It's not a good idea to cool the CPU directly that way
earnest osprey
It might be useful to tightly control the water temperature
But then you need a bigger radiator
Could be viable if you have room for those rads
zenith sonnet
Room is rarely the problem
If you need more, get an O11 Dynamic XL

You can no longer use ANYTHING 32 bit on the next Ubuntu
Fuck you
That literally makes gaming non existent
pale sigil
Just don't upgrade
zenith sonnet
Most games drop 32bit support/clients nowadays, because it's not worth the effort to keep them running for less than 2% non 64bit capable systems
wheat plume
That's not my point
My point is that most new people to linux will always go for ubuntu
And if you can't fucking install steam
They won't give linux a try
And Arch and manjaro won't be too everyone's liking
So the people who already play in ubuntu will either have to switch to Debian or Arch or Solus or fedora
ashen spindle
long term support version will still support 32bit and it also shouldnt bee too hard for steam to make a 64bit version
then again steam doing extra effort doesnt seem likely
wheat plume
Linux mint is based on Ubuntu
It'll have the same issues
Every distro forked from Ubuntu will unless the devs try to find a way to keep support for the 32 bit libraries
I saw 5 people already on Reddit spout bullshit towards manjaro saying they get 15fps in games compare Ubuntu where they had 100 fps
Then everyone bashed them asking if they installed the Nvidia drivers ahah
Or Solus
Solus is amazing for gaming on
I used the gnome edition for almost a year
ashen spindle
laughs from his windows pc
wheat plume
Have fun with your bloated and spy filled OS
ashen spindle
can't really do anything about it if I need to work on windows anyway 
wheat plume
Idk much about nouveau drivers
When you load manjaro up from USB you have this menu that shows up before the live environment begins to load up
You can select to use non free drivers here and then it'll install the Nvidia drivers when you install the OS
Hold up
Did you install Gentoo on your own?
Or use something like Sabayon?
You spent hours installing it??
Woah damn
:O
What desktop you choose?
Ahhh
I see
What suite of apps then?
Ahh
Palemoon is the default browser for Manjaro i3
shudders
It is....
Chrome and Firefox work perfectly fine on i3
And I haven't tested any other browser
I'd like to see how surf would handle it
Let me guess
You use text based browser?
I feel the same way
But you kinda need a m mouse in a browser
So all those people who use i3 have to deal with a mouse for that xxd
Oh
You are a systemD hater
I just went back to Plasma today
It seems smoother when playing Minecraft than last time
There is no frame stuttering
Not laggy
But stuttery when moving the mouse but not due to lag
Not on gnome
Playing Minecraft on gnome desktop is so damn smooth I got nothin sickness once
Motion**
Nearly felt like vomiting
And never any screen tearing
The game was so smooth that the movement make me really dizzy
ashen spindle
wheat plume
I had enabled vsync on the Nvidia settings also
So it was kinda locking the system to 60fps but it didn't lock the game to 60
But it felt like it was locked to 60
May have been head bobbing
But I always leave that option on
This was the only time it made me dizzy
When playing it on gnome
Even jumping was so smooth
3.32 is a great gnome upgrade
Because I used gnome a lot over the years and I never had that happen before
I get motion sick if I'm doing anything in a car other can driving or looking at the road when being a passenger
Other than**
I start feeling light headed like I could fall over if I move around too much in a moving car
If I read or on my phone
I think if you have perfect smooth 60fps in games it may cause a bit of dizzyness
Because you aren't used to seeing something so perfectly smooth all the time
Idk the reason behind it
That's my explanation
If I had a better PC I would get a higher refresh rate screen for it and see if I get dizzy from that or not
Cause with my current PC I can't push 60fps in most of the games I own
And you can't lower the resolution on ultrawide
There is no lower 21:9 resolution than 2560*1080
ashen spindle
I mean you could restrict it to a smaller format and then have lower reolution
wheat plume
I have become addicted to 21:9 xd
It's great for games
And for having two apps side by side
Yeh...
I hear that awesome window manager is really great at taking advantage of double monitor setups
It's apparently the best window manager for that
But the rest are good too
feral jolt
what about those 49" ultrawides tho
feral jolt
yeah i have a 3440x1440 and love it
zenith sonnet
I can tell you from experience
If you get nauseous in a game, you have one of two problems:
a lot of button to photon delay (like its caused by vsync, GPU thread lag, etc)
or unsteady camera movement (can be headbob, microstutter, unoptimised featues,...)
Higher refresh rate universally helps reduce thr issue
pale sigil
I get dizzy on some games

zenith sonnet
Things I hate is stuff like GPU smoothing frames or thread lag
Buffers between the CPU and the GPU to achieve more consistent frame times by indroducing additional lag to compensate for CPU frame time variance
Vsync, of course, is just horrid
Windowed and Borderless modes indroduce additional latency due to DWM
wheat plume
dwm is a window manager on Linux
zenith sonnet
Windows also has one
wheat plume
yeh
zenith sonnet
It doesn't prevent tearing within the windows themselves
Just from the desktops POV
wheat plume
oh...
zenith sonnet
So your desktop, window frames, etc, those don't tear
wheat plume
true
zenith sonnet
It does add about 1.5 frames of latency in Borderless, and even more in Windowed modes

They should all the able to handle their rated speeds, the ethernet chip should be able to handle it alone
The difficulty comes from trying to manage the data stream, which 99% of routers can't even do (properly)

we don't really have outside walls everywhere
my flat has a really weird layout
yea
makes sense
ashen spindle
I mean they do, we'll get them next year
but its nice to see them listening to community feedback that amd/nvidia ignored for years
didn't expect it from intel but it's a good sign for the graphics stuff aside from raw hardware performance
nothing huge, unless you can make use of it, intel said drivers in August will allow integer scaling on their gen11 graphics
but then again, Intel listening to feedback and implementing stuff I guess is huge lul
integer scaling
I'll find the reddit post 1 sec
first post after the sticky
plush summit
ashen spindle
dont think anyone can tell you why not
Yes? Next year is the release for the consumer cards
Bc that’s kinda old news by now
That’s why I wasn’t sure if you meant something else
zenith sonnet
Lol
That thread reads like
'Pls give us Nvidia cards at lower price'
I don't think intel will be truly relevant on the GPU market unless they keep going until their second revision of the graphics driver
ashen spindle
didnt read anything aside that first post lul
bc reddit makes me lose braincells
and based on how many people they hired for the gpu devision it's certainly not a "here have this and if its not good we're out"
zenith sonnet
Their drivers are still years behind everyone else's though
And as we know, GPU drivers are half the story
spark horizon
and knowing is half the battle

feral jolt
They "leaked" prices
ashen spindle
21.06 was just a rumour, but 02.07 seems more likely now
bc next rumor says 06.07. is the release date, so they have it a day before amd
zenith sonnet
That just be... I don't recall the word..
ashen spindle
?
feral jolt
it would make sense to release the same day as amd cpus
then people doing new builds would grab a nvidia gpu and a amd cpu
zenith sonnet
Well, true
Even PC building guides start to say 'intel is done for, buy AMD at any tier' already
ashen spindle
which is stupid lmao
as much as I think this will be a great launch, recommending anything before reviews is dumb
feral jolt
the tables have turned, intel 14nm is the new bulldozer. im predicting it will become cheap enough to stay competitive
latent mural
maybe
we don't know yet
but it is unlikely that intel has a secret desktop chip
and the 9900k psuhes 14nm desktop at it's limit
feral jolt
back in 2013 i paid 140 dollars for a bulldozer fx8350 + motherboard combo and had no regrets. even though it was shitty it was best performance per dollar
ashen spindle
they do, the 9900KS 
latent mural
the 9900KYS
also kills your wallet
for worse performance
if the leaked ryzen 3000 numbers are true
feral jolt
intel might just abandon the desktop cpu market for a couple years
latent mural
unlikely
they still have the bigger market share
and especially on server AMD could destroy them
with more cores
feral jolt
i just dont see them having a good hand to play here so i expect them to fold
latent mural
Epyc rome seams to be great
feral jolt
no sense in manufacturing cpus at a loss
latent mural
they still sell
because of fanboys
that say "I won't buy AMD"
"I had a laptop with AMD once, it was terrible"
when they had some mobile bulldozer with integrated graphics etc
feral jolt
the game has changed and idiots can google whats the best processor and amd will come up
ashen spindle
a slight loss would still be worth it, just to keep the marketshare so once sunny cove or whatever comes and is good people can stay with the same company
latent mural
still are fanboys
yea
imagine having to buy a new plattform for every new high end chip
feral jolt
yeah but how many people do you know that are diehard fanboys. might account for 10% of the market share
latent mural
even though the last 4 used the same socket
10% of the market share is more than enough to survive on it
amd never gave up on it
ashen spindle
sure but the other 90% are not people who google on their own to find whats best
latent mural
even though bulldozer was really terrible at the end
ashen spindle
the vast majority relies on what they heard for the last years, or buys pre build for whatever their money gets them and looks fancy
feral jolt
bulldozer was a good buy because they sold them at like 15% margins lol
latent mural
they were too slow at the end
not bad for the 100€ they cost
but too weak to be relevant imo
feral jolt
i was able to play a lot of games at 1080p 60hz ultra without issue on bulldozer
latent mural
can still buy the wraith edition for 64€
not saying they can't perform well for most games
but they usually bottleneck a modern gpu in most titles
feral jolt
yeah it does suck though. my friend has a fx-6300 and is broke and im trying to convince him to grab a 3770k or something for a cheap upgrade.
3770k has a 60% faster single core speed
zenith sonnet
Like the son of a friend
Bought a 2070 last week
He wouldn't even consider a 5700 XT instead, because 'never again AMD'
feral jolt
yikes buying a card last week is stupid
latent mural
they had a bad experience with one product
because they expected tons of performance out of a display adapter
zenith sonnet
He also wanted to buy some intel CPU this week or something
feral jolt
anyway my internet friend has a bunch of old intel ddr3 era chips for sale if anyone is interested he has good prices
latent mural
why would anybody buy now
just wait 2 weeks until prices drop
he could easily save 100-150€
if not more
feral jolt
hes selling chips for like 50-70 usd
for those old ones
3xxx's and 4xxx's
has a stockpile of ddr3 and mobos to go with it
latent mural
would only buy ddr3 ecc
feral jolt
hes also got server stuff too
old xeons from that era
im thinking of asking him for a little something to put together a streaming rig
latent mural
they have to handle encoding well
feral jolt
shouldnt have any problem with a 3770k encoding right?
i was also planning on getting a capture card if that makes any difference
Oh btw got that g305 today
It's a lot bigger than I expected
Ye olde m65 feels very similar
the wireless advantage is huge though
latent mural
G305 is great
pale sigil
It's a wonderful mouse
It was just a little to small for me however
So I ended up with a g403 instead
Which I love
latent mural
I have big hands
Love my g305
And g403 is out of question for me becauee of the hump
pale sigil
Ye I loved it to but it kept hurting after a bit of use
The bump is what I needed tbh
latent mural
How did you grip it btw
latent mural
True
pale sigil
Probably claw

I am claw finger gripper

ashen spindle
huh, wonder if they'll end it the day before we get info about the 20 series refresh
ashen spindle
well it might a move from evga to get rid of the current rtx inventory before the new cards come out
so they aren't stuck on them and can do some good pr moves

@karmic grail seen the A1 Plus?
feral jolt
evga is helping you buy not selling you rtx crap
1000 series was better than 2000 series
ashen spindle
eh
in comparison to previous generation sure
cards itself are better and have some nice new stuff, even if you ignore rt core entirely
NVENC is amazing on them

Don't buy dated Nvidia cards :p

buy a 760 for $20

also kinda sucks it has to be an evga model and not any old gtx card

AMD launches Navi
Nvidia: "Look at us! ... Please?"
ashen spindle
eh, if nvidia thought more of navi this would've happend earlier
exotic rune
I will only upgrade again, when I can get a 40% uplift on performance from my undervolted/overclocked + sharpened timings Vega 56, which is basically 6-10% faster in games than the Gtx 1080 at stock. All that for under 350€, which is what I paid for my Powercolor "Red Devil" Vega 56. So I assume we will get that in two generations, since AMD and nVidia seem to be dead set on shifting mid range GPUs 150€ above what you had to pay before the mining boom. This market is a shitshow currently
ashen spindle
40% uplift in performance what
exotic rune
what I said
my next GPU has to have 40% performance more
than my Vega 56 overclocked + undervolted with sharpened timings
ashen spindle
oh I thought you meant your 56 got 40% more performance after it lmao
wheat plume
@urban salmon I approve of the PONPONPON
pale sigil
fallow bison
oh no
wheat plume
anyway to make this code better?
it takes in 3 values from the user and detirmines things about what type of triangle and if its right angled, but it has to check if its a triangle first
ashen spindle
how do you figure out that its a triangle from 3 floats 
wouldn't you at least need 3 vec2 or whatever it is for that?
oh wait is that sidelengths?
ashen spindle
okay makes more sense than 3 1D points in space lul
wheat plume
yeh xd
I am really bad at switch loops, but that might be the only way to move the output statements to a new method?
ashen spindle
I mean a switch case is basically the same as a list of if options
wheat plume
whut
ashen spindle
and since you wouldn't switch based on a single variable but a result, idk if it would even be better for optimization
wheat plume
its a console app, idk if we need optimisation 😂
ashen spindle
well a switch case takes an argument and depending on what it is, it does something, so you basically have a lot of "if(argument == case)"
wheat plume
how do I implement this in another method from the returns of this checker method?
ashen spindle
not sure what you mean, a different way to check what it is?
or as in making it a string function and returning the string?
wheat plume
I want to move all the System.out statements to a different method
ashen spindle
yea make it return a string instead of void
wheat plume
then I need a switch in the main method?
ashen spindle
I mean you can do it that way, but you could just make it like this System.out.println(checker(x,y,z));
wheat plume
and then do this in checker()?
ashen spindle
yup
ashen spindle
and you dont want the system.out in main?
wheat plume
I dont want it in checker
ashen spindle
oh yeah then this should be fine
ashen spindle
ehh you could also just call it directly in main?
if you have the float values there, idk the entire code
timid chasm
You're assuming the sides are connected?
that's an assumption you have to make I mean
wheat plume
there is a math rule to check if 3 lengths, if joined, will form a triangle
if they all cant join together it isnt one
timid chasm
anything with 3 sides is a triangle though
wheat plume
not really, if you go by side length
wheat plume
yeh
timid chasm
not a right triangle
wheat plume
it cant be a triangle, the sides arent long enough
ashen spindle
no its not a triangle, you cant connect those sides lol
wheat plume
^^
timid chasm
whaaaaaaat
wheat plume
lemme get a drawing hang on
timid chasm
that's the definition of a triangle
ashen spindle
if one side has a length of 5
and the other 2 are 1 each
you cant make up the distance to connect them
wheat plume
exactly
timid chasm
oh so you're saying because of extra distance it's not only a triangle
a triangle still exists there is just runoff
wheat plume
or if a side is too short also
idk what happens in the code if one side is longer than it needs to be
ashen spindle
what not, its not a triangle, its just 3 lines in my example
you cant combine them into any geometric shape
wheat plume
yeh, but if they were to be connected, could they form a triangle
timid chasm
I said sides and should've said vertices
wheat plume
or would a side be too short
ashen spindle
the assumption is, they are connected, if they can make a triangle
wheat plume
if they are connected, yeh
ashen spindle
so it needs to be looked for if its possible based on the length
wheat plume
the math rule to check for this is two sides are longer than the third one
timid chasm
yeah
wheat plume
this basically
timid chasm
I mean that's how you check it
