#

if it's a bit less than that in Europe at least it should certainly be within warranty and even then it should not fail like that.

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

Actually I have a clue as to what may have happened

#

The power adapter light went off

#

So I tried to replug it

#

And it started smoking

#

I suspect it's a power failure

thick elk Jul 13, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

What happened is a short, that's for sure

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

Seems like it

thick elk Jul 13, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

the question is what caused it

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

I'll take the bottom cover off

#

Tmr

#

It's night rn so I'll go check it out later

#

At least it didn't fry my fucking monitor

ashen spindle Jul 13, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

4600 is probably the best bet yes but hard to say without them being announced haha

#

also no, the console prices are not known yet @digital cliff

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

📎 JPEG_20200714_013420.jpg

#

The burning is from within the PC

#

The plug is fine

#

So there's that

#

I disconnected the adapter for the time being

ashen spindle Jul 13, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

@digital cliff where did you read the 1k price?

fair gull Jul 13, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

the internet

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

Well I have 2 options

#

I guess?

crimson wigeon Jul 13, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

that's just typical verkkokauppa tho, who even buys for that price

fair gull Jul 13, 2020, 6:14 PM

#

id buy a launch switch for 1k

#

if its sealed

#

fud?

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

trashcan PC!

#

Im guessing id have to pay the 23% import fee on this though?

📎 Screenshot_20200713_195045.png

#

I need to check what the 4XL costs

#

€729 :O

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

yes

#

prices can get more ridiculous depending where you live

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

the 3A is €330 though

#

so €406 including import fee 🤔

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

probably a better deal

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

Yeah!

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

or you can wait until the 4a comes out

#

which will be soon

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

I want to wait until this phone is no longer working

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

oh then great

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

I think that will be soon though cause Android 11 wont be coming to it

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

but you use custom firmwres

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

even with custom roms unless someone ports vendors from another device

#

RN all roms for my phone have the original vendors and things from Xiaomi

#

but once 11 comes around we cant get them anymore for this phone

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

yeah and they can continue to

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

how? if Xiaomi arent making them anymore for htis phone

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

my nexus 6p runs old low level stuff

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

they will have to port from another xiaomi phone

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

and still runs new versions

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

hmm

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

they may need to optimize in the kernel

#

and make it compatible

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

yeah, a port basically

crimson wigeon Jul 13, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

Yeah the community wizards will make it work... somehow..

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

yeah and the low level stuff is not touched

#

like your vendor partition or wherever you have it

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

I downloaded 11 GSI yesterday

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

did it work

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

idk, im not using it on my only phone

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

oh

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

someone says that hotspot doesnt work

#

and sometimes mobile data

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

on the generic system image?

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

yeah

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

oh okay

#

that makes sense

#

that will be fixed i would think

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 7:00 PM

#

The same issues where said about the 10 GSI

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:00 PM

#

but keep in mind that is the baseline

#

custom firmwares will work

#

and you will get your patches

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 7:00 PM

#

📎 Screenshot_20200713_200141.png

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:00 PM

just your low level stuff will not be upodated

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 7:00 PM

#

📎 Screenshot_20200713_200152.png

#

same issues for 10 and 11 GSI

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

yeah since it is the baseline

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

hmmm

#

📎 IMG_20200714_024253.jpg

#

Umm

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

think of it more like testing the device

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

So this area smells of burning plastic

#

Is there anything wrong?

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

i do not think google goes too far into it

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

thats not good....

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

So basically

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:02 PM

#

what is up with your copper heastpipers

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 7:02 PM

#

This area suddenly started smoking and then it shut itself off

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:02 PM

#

maybe remove that copper heatpipe or is that plastic

#

and take a magnifying glass to examine it

#

i guess if you can take a macro shot then you can also figure it out

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

It's a copper heatpipe yes

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:05 PM

#

any idea what it is above

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 7:05 PM

#

The GPU

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:05 PM

#

oh

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 7:07 PM

#

Someone else said it could be a burst copper heatpipe

#

Because everything else seems to be intact

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:08 PM

#

i am just curious if somehting else went wrong elsewhere

#

since your gpu should not just do that

#

but it could be just that what you said

#

did you drop the laptop?

#

or did it fall

reef patrol Jul 13, 2020, 7:09 PM

#

SMOKING?

#

Yeah that's very bad.

#

Got warranty on it?

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 7:13 PM

#

Didn't fall or drop

#

I was just using it normally

#

The power adapter light went off so I checked and puff it went smoking

shadow minnow Jul 13, 2020, 7:15 PM

#

I mean, it must have been some bigger part as it started smoking. Would be actually interesting to know what exactly started that.

short cove Jul 13, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

Idk it came from the inside

#

I took the bottom cover off and nothing was damaged

#

I'll take the cooling assembly off and see if the GPU is fucked

empty wren Jul 13, 2020, 7:22 PM

#

If you can, check your other components you probably may not even need to remove to diagnose what happened.

fair gull Jul 13, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

@short cove glad someone besides me is also enjoying my daily job

thick elk Jul 13, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

This is basically the same as the odroid-h2+ in terms of cpu

#

A bit better than a pi 4

wheat plume Jul 13, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

oo

thick elk Jul 13, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

that being said if you were to buy the parts + the odroid this would be cheaper than the odroid

@short cove Damn son(not literal) looks it melted into the display bracket

#

Yuck that looks like it needs a cleanup, can you remove some more items from there to get a better look?

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

I'd prefer not to touch anything yet sorry

#

Doesn't boot so

empty wren Jul 14, 2020, 4:06 AM

Fair enough, like mansen asked earlier do you have a warranty?

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 4:32 AM

#

No point

#

It's fucking burnt

#

There's still a burned smell

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 5:03 AM

#

Ah true

#

Well it's under the WiFi card

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 7:07 AM

#

i mean this is obly really fixable with a mb swap, warranty repair or really good luck in finding the right components and a diagram for the laptop

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 7:11 AM

#

I don't plan on fixing it

#

Way too annoying

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 7:15 AM

#

May it be VRM?

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 7:58 AM

#

It could be yeah

#

It started burning once I tried plugging the power source in

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 8:17 AM

#

could be general power circutry for detection of power from adaptor etc

#

because it looks like thats the corner where u connect power source

#

plus not sure if vrm fits under a wifi card

#

they grey sqaure to the left of wifi card is prob part of vrm

reef patrol Jul 14, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

At any rate. New motherboard. So if it's not under warranty, you might as well sell off the parts and grab a new one.

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 8:40 AM

#

I'll just do a full new build if it comes to that

#

I heard 5700 XT has rather high operating temperatures?

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 8:46 AM

founders edition yes, some AiB models are much better for temperature

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 8:54 AM

For the GPU I'm looking at the sapphire nitro+ model to be exact

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:13 AM

#

3300x is probably good enough if it's price is not too far up in your place

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 10:13 AM

#

Is it more powerful than 3600?

#

Sorry if I sound like too clingy to my list just asking why

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:13 AM

#

not its a tiny bit weaker but much cheaper if you find it at MSRP

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:13 AM

#

3300x is fucking awesome

#

gaming wise its better than the 3600

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 10:14 AM

Oh? Why

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:14 AM

in most cases

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:14 AM

they are more or less equal

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:14 AM

My man 10fps or so is quite a lot more

#

over 100fps anyway

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 10:14 AM

how? it gives you more fps for less money

it gives you about equal

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:16 AM

they dont

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:16 AM

well

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:16 AM

#

If you can last without it / with iGPU for 2-3 months u will get much better performance for that price.

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:16 AM

#

on paper it has a slightly higher clock

#

after boosting they are at about the same

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:16 AM

when its in stock anyway

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:19 AM

#

I literally said to get a 3300x if its not much above MSRP

#

better value and mostly equal performance still doesnt make it have more fps

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:20 AM

#

Ye but you said it wasn't better, im just saying alone for that its better.

#

But FPS wise a lot of times it can have an fps advantage

#

which like i said is a lot over 100fps

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 10:20 AM

#

@shadow minnow yeah I'd prefer if I have a PC up and running before school starts

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:21 AM

but rare occurances are not "a lot of times" or the norm

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:22 AM

#

@short cove I mean, there is another option - go with i5 10600k and use iGPU till new GPU release

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:22 AM

#

most gaming benchmark videos its over 50% of the total games

#

that have 10+fps advantage

#

i guess math

#

but bleh

#

Most important games its seems to matter

#

such as online games

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:23 AM

#

in the gamersnexus video 6/7 have the 3600 above the 3300x, in F1 its 208 fps vs 206 for the 3600

#

so idk where you get your numbers from

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:24 AM

#

thats why you watch multiple sources

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:24 AM

#

yes I literally have 12/13 cases from two reliable sources showing 3300x to have less fps

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:24 AM

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:27 AM

so 100 euros more

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:27 AM

#

Where do you live?

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:27 AM

#

and a board that is basically the same amount more

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:28 AM

#

ok only 80 euro difference

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:28 AM

#

bleh i5s

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:29 AM

#

you get a much less useful cpu as well

#

for the price of a 3700x

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:29 AM

#

I always forget i5s aint potatoes now

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:29 AM

#

Why bleh? Have you seen gamer nexuses video, it even had over 30 FPS more than r5 when OCed

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:29 AM

#

I always forget

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

I'll just repeat what I think is the best path: just get the 3300x and the 5700xt you chose, easy to sell and upgrade both parts later this year

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

it still is not a good deal

#

it isn;t even a competitor to the r5

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

i just refuse to go intel

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

since it costs the same as the r7

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

now

#

THough im still meh about my 7700k

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

completely disregarding the mobo

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

xD

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

R7 not much better in gaming then r5

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:31 AM

#

you do know that isn;t a realistic comparison?

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:31 AM

#

I mean, there is imo no point of getting r7 or higher for gaming

#

R5 is really good deal though, same as r3

#

But if you really want to spend more, then i5 makes sense

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:32 AM

#

no then a better gpu with the cheaper cpu makes sense

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:33 AM

#

better gpu will almost always get a better result

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:33 AM

#

I mean, if someone goes 2080s and wants better CPU

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:34 AM

#

i'd argue that spending more money on the gpu still makes the bigger difference

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:34 AM

#

but we aren't talking about hypothetical scenarios, we are talking about a very exact list of pcparts that someone posted lol

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 10:35 AM

#

Upgrade from r5 to i5 cheaper than 2080s to 2080ti

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 10:35 AM

#

what are you even on about

old marlin Jul 14, 2020, 10:35 AM

#

you'd have to get a more expensive mobo

#

so 2080 ti would be in the same budget

How good is this?

#

This is very expensive but is this like just excellent performance?

#

Or I really don't need to put some much money into the SSD

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 2:38 PM

#

unless you have specific useages that need high bandwidth, an adata is cheaper, or an Intel P660/665

zenith sonnet Jul 14, 2020, 2:45 PM

#

The Evo Plus isn't even that expensive

#

Last I looked at them

#

But with the AData drives you get the same or better perf for a lower price

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 2:52 PM

#

adata my most favorite company /s

#

want some really cheap adata drives?

wheat plume Jul 14, 2020, 2:52 PM

#

in general or just for data storage?

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 2:53 PM

#

still have to throw out the few adata drives we have

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 2:53 PM

#

hmm I do need more storage...

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 2:53 PM

#

@ashen spindle then pick them out of our ewaste bin

#

find out were i work and get them

#

im not willingly giving those to anyone

#

kingston a series and adata have just disappointed us way too much

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 2:55 PM

#

that'll be a bit difficult with me not leaving my house, don't have a spot robot yet to pick them

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 2:55 PM

#

so theyll get recycled or whatever then

#

hopefully into useable ssds

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 2:57 PM

#

if you ever have some intel server ssds from old servers that need to go let me know, still sad I missed my chance on getting them cheap on ebay

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 2:58 PM

#

i think we had some

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 2:58 PM

#

the 4tb+ variants?

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 2:58 PM

#

doesnt really matter cant give them out

#

we shred them

#

literally

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 2:59 PM

#

rip, but makes sense depending on the data on it

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 2:59 PM

#

because of customer wish

#

yes if i get my hands on some of the low profile customer where i know we used the 4tb ones

#

then i can let u know

#

i think i have like 4 or 6 running around somewhere

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 3:00 PM

#

think it was some ibm or hp servers that got replaced, so the ebay listing had like a couple hundred for 3xx$, so less than 100 per tb

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 3:00 PM

#

wew

#

dayum

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 3:00 PM

#

think it was linus who catched wind and bought most of them for a server

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 3:01 PM

#

Well the ADATA is significantly cheaper

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 3:01 PM

yup nope

#

i do not like beat sabers 360 maps

wheat plume Jul 14, 2020, 3:02 PM

O.o

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 3:02 PM

#

@short cove and from my experience trash

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 3:02 PM

#

try the 90° ones, much better imo

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 3:02 PM

#

all customers i sold some too got a replacement 6months to a year later

#

because the drive failed completely

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 3:03 PM

#

it me so fucking much

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 3:03 PM

#

the kingston a series drives held out way shorter like 3months

#

or 4

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 3:03 PM

#

So the 970 evo plus is the top tier high end reliable option that won't fail in like a year?

#

Or 2 at that

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 3:03 PM

#

i have a 970evo or 960

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 3:03 PM

#

Also i dont miss puching things in my room by accident

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 3:03 PM

#

2 years still blazing fast and stronk

#

theres other options tho

#

just not a fan of adata and kingston a series

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

Alright then I want reliability I suppose I have to pay for it

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

Intel 660p or 665p is a good value choice for SSDs

fair gull Jul 14, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

because of well experience

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 3:05 PM

#

I can get 660P

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 3:05 PM

#

should be much cheaper right?

#

than the samsung ones

short cove Jul 14, 2020, 3:06 PM

#

A good chunk yeah

reef patrol Jul 14, 2020, 3:11 PM

#

Reliability is a vague term.

#

If you're not a server user, you're probably not going to notice a cacheless NVME for the most part, so paying for it can seem odd.

#

If you need redundancy, you're using RAID already.

I wish wooting KBs had doubleshoot PBTs, as it is quite often in that price point.

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

buy a pbt keycap set then?

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

wooting kbs are already cheap for what you get

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

^

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

and pbt keycaps arent too expensive as an addon

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

but he dreams way too often

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

wooting kbs are already cheap for what you get
@frozen anchor not really

#

and pbt keycaps arent too expensive as an addon
@frozen anchor even some 100$ KBs have it

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

well im sure wooting could add it on for a small bump in price sure

#

but the boards are still well worth it for what you get

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

They are worth it, it would just be nice to have PBTs

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

i think a good solution would be to be able to add pbt keycaps as an option with buying the kb

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

Even if I’d need to pay 10-30$ extra I’d buy it

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

yeah if wooting just made it be +$x.xx for pbt keycaps option or whatever that would be cool

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

well they plan to do a b-brand thing to offer sutff like that, but makes no sense to have it as a stock option since that increases the price and thats not what you need when you already are at high quality/price and need to make sure people actually want to buy it

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

yeah i think making it an option to get pbt instead of abs when buying the kb would be cool if the b-brand thing ever happens

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 6:15 PM

#

You mean the lekker edition or the normal wooting caps?

#

Well thing is, people want to use the keyboard when they buy it, so you ant really ship without caps

#

Regardless of what quality you pack with it

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 6:16 PM

#

Me

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

well, it's the first one after my sidewinder x4 membrane lmao

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

eh abs lasered caps are so cheap it doesnt really matter

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

I would like an option for PBT dual shots similar to what Razer offers tho.

#

Wooting's font is nicer.

#

And it looks overall nicer.

shadow minnow Jul 14, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

True

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 6:18 PM

#

Heck, dont ship it with the keeb. Ship it as an upgrade kit.

#

I dont care

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

(thats the idea with the b-brand iirc)

#

I think the only big issues came from the warehouse in the US having ownerhsip change?

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 6:21 PM

#

yeah wasnt wooting's fault at all

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 6:22 PM

#

thonk when was that

#

I mean that's on the package station or whatever? I got mine in a normal package, also sure that was a waste of paper, but not really an issue aside from that?

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

Tbh, as long as the items arrives safely and properly, I dont care one bit if it is packed in cardboard or a fancy box.

#

But that is just me :P

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 6:26 PM

#

it sounded more like the people packing it up not doing the right thing, I dont remember more than them looking into it after people posted it here though

#

whatever it was, they got it resolved once they heard of it and it seems only a handful of people got oversized packages

#

sure but I dont see an issue like that as something negative for a company really?

#

they've had more (black switches) plus regional layout options etc. and so far there are no issues really aside from oversized boxes for some parts at some point?

#

which again, is not really in their control and could've happend to literally anyone who isnt amazon and thus could just buy the entire warehouse?

#

I mean I am not denying there are issues or anything, I just don't see how they really contribute to thinking more sku's would bring more problems

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

idk how youre blaming wooting for this issue... its not wooting's fault unless youre gonna say its their fault for using easypost and not predicting ruby has would buy them and also there were a bunch of other vendors who get messed up from the ruby has issues

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 6:50 PM

#

you mean another limited edition?

#

we kinda know fullzise HE is next and then a smaller factor afterwards

wheat plume Jul 14, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

wooting one is TKl

#

oof right

reef patrol Jul 14, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

bcaHappy4Giddy

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

bc thats not the formfactor most people are buying either etc.

#

idk what manufacturing would be for that, if people would thing thats too big or not what they are used to etc.

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

people dont want 'battleship' size boards fullsize is usually the max people want

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

I can't stand any sort of number entry without a 10 key and I can bind all the numkeys to extra functions otherwise

timid chasm Jul 14, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

well desk sizes are usually limited so I'm sure length of the board matters

#

I would be far less concerned about width if there was just a bunch of keys at the top

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 7:02 PM

#

also fullsize works, but having more to keys to the right makes it harder to put the mouse in a comfortable spot. and putting them above the F keys is limisted by deskspace mostly I'd say

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 7:02 PM

#

also playing roguelikes is way more annoying without the numpad

timid chasm Jul 14, 2020, 7:03 PM

#

What type of roguelikes? I don't know if I've ever use the numpad for one

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 7:03 PM

#

there is the solution of left side numpad

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 7:03 PM

OwO

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 7:03 PM

75% wooting blobaww

Something with the layout of Z-element Z-88 or Niz Plum would be perfect.

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

why are you saying more skus are bad while wanting a different model of lekker

#

well its the sensible thing for wooting to do

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 7:06 PM

#

what if it was TKL and still not sold by now?

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 7:07 PM

#

eh theres still lots of people who didnt get any money btw

timid chasm Jul 14, 2020, 7:07 PM

#

@ashen spindle That would be because people are stupid

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 7:07 PM

#

ok

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 7:08 PM

#

I mean to say, yes it took a while, that doesnt meant it was the wrong choice, it probably would've taken much longer if it was not fullsize

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

I do believe it mostly has to do with the fact that they were trying to make as many people happy as possible.

#

If the fullsize numbers were higher... what else were they supposed to go by.

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

that doesnt change the fact that more wooting twos sold after the kickstarter

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

Besides, think of it this way: We will get debugged, better version of the TKL lekker after people test it for us! lul

#

I dont know how many people actually buy it for the analog reasons tbh

#

I just bought it for the adjustable actuation and it being a very nice prebuilt.

#

I havent even tried the analog functionality on anything

timid chasm Jul 14, 2020, 7:15 PM

#

if native keyboard analog support existed for games then sure but until we get that from devs it'll always be limited

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

im sure its not just based on kickstarter numbers

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 7:17 PM

#

sure but a lot of people already had a one at that point and didnt want a new one, like me for example

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

why did you buy one if you dont like what they did with it?

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 7:21 PM

#

There are more hall-effect boards on the market.

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 7:21 PM

#

well wooting has said now that there will eventually be tkl

#

ok well you seem very salty about having bought a full size

#

so idk

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 7:22 PM

#

Huh?

#

What does Wooting have to do with xenophobia in China?

#

I am not following, Wooting in an EU company, not Taiwanese.

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

ttbh

#

at this rates its becoming a taiwan company

#

lol

#

2 of the founders live in Taiwan

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

nah that aint happening, not a major tax advantage or smth like that and would just bring more risks to it imo

pale sigil Jul 14, 2020, 7:50 PM

#

was a joke

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

I still don't see the appeal of TKL unless it's on or for a laptop

#

you're losing a lot of utility for a bit of space

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

What ulitity?

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

less desk space, for some games etc. you really dont need it at all, less chance of smashing mouse into the side of the keyboard bc its further apart etc.

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 9:03 PM

#

All the number keys are in the top row

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 9:03 PM

#

and are painful to use if you're going to type more than 4

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 9:03 PM

#

Not really, I think that is more of a muscle memory issue

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 9:03 PM

#

with a 10 key you can flip through a binder with one hand and enter part numbers with the other

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 9:04 PM

#

yea... which is totally what everyone is doing...

#

man I dont remember the last time I used a hand on a keyboard and the other one was not on it too or on the mouse

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 9:04 PM

#

not to mention that you can bind all those keys with something like AHK if you aren't doing that

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 9:05 PM

#

Unless youve got a small desk usually i dont think a fullsize is too much of an issue for space

#

I have a tkl but if i actually put it closer to my mousepad its uncomfortable

#

So i have a large gap between them

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 9:06 PM

#

it's very easy to just never have a use for the numpad

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 9:06 PM

#

you're saving like 3 inches of space to lose out on almost 20 keys which, on top of being useful for data entry, frequently aren't bound out of the box in a program

ivory geyser Jul 14, 2020, 9:06 PM

#

In all honesty, if you are an accountant, numpad is good.

#

Otherwise... why?

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 9:07 PM

#

before I had my w1 I had a fullsize keyboard

#

in all the years I onyl used the numpad for one thing

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 9:07 PM

#

I understand why people wouldn't use the numpad, I just don't understand why even people who don't habitually use it think it's not worth having

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 9:07 PM

#

that was having disguise bindings in TF2 to save me doing it via 2 key combos

#

also I did use to sometimes hit my mouse into my keyboard's side with a fullsize, never happend with mz w1

#

also it was really nice when I moved it the three times I needed to put it in my bag, bc it barely fit an fullsize would've required a seperate bag

#

so for me the numpad missing has been a benefit

ashen spindle Jul 14, 2020, 9:25 PM

#

ye (and sometimes it truly is about the space if your desk is really small or crammed)

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 9:32 PM

#

well personally i think having my tkl very close to my mousepad is uncomfortable

#

well i dont really have a space issue

#

my mousepad is a XL artisan hien

#

yeah so 49x42cm pad

#

but still i feel like if i have my mouse and kb really close its very uncomfortable

#

my tkl is far enough away from my mousepad that i could easily fit a full size in the exact same spot

#

i dont like centering my kb because it sets my wrists at an angle from the A and S keys and wasd

#

i havent tried 60% or 65% or whatever that is

#

i like to have f keys

#

id be fine chopping off the nav but not the f keys

#

i dont need them in the games i play but they are nice to quickly open menus and stuff like that

sacred shoal Jul 14, 2020, 9:47 PM

#

your keyboard appears to have lost half its keys

#

I want a modernized keyboard of yore dammit

#

either that or a brain machine interface

#

and not one that I have to move muscles to use

#

rip that little ruler cutout that went over the fn keys ;-;

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 9:54 PM

Do they have analog functionality?

Ohh right

frozen anchor Jul 14, 2020, 10:42 PM

it is optical but just normal

#

wooting optical is optical taken to the extreme

wheat plume Jul 14, 2020, 10:43 PM

#

If every other keyboard is digital that means they are binary

And thus, that makes the Wootings non binary

Wooting says NB rights

the data is still binary

The Irish tax ruling expected tomorrow will determine whether or not Apple owes the Irish government €13B ($14.8B) in underpaid taxes. But a new report ...

I hope they have to pay that$13B

ashen spindle Jul 15, 2020, 10:59 AM

I hopey they have to pay and cant find a single state that gives them tax reductions

(not going to happen bc capitalism is shit but one can hope)

wheat plume Jul 15, 2020, 11:02 AM

Yeh ;_;

ashen spindle Jul 15, 2020, 11:03 AM

#

well, on second thought they should be allowed to do this, 6 million in tax sounds fair when you make 1.6billion right?

shadow minnow Jul 15, 2020, 11:03 AM

#

imo that is not mistake of apple, as they did not do anything illegal

ashen spindle Jul 15, 2020, 11:04 AM

#

nobody said it's a "mistake" ?

#

going to the country with the lowest taxes and only doing so after getting additional benefits is not something they did accidentely, but should be illegal and hopefully gets ruled that way

shadow minnow Jul 15, 2020, 11:10 AM

#

But it is not illegal, so until it becomes illegal, they imo should not have to pay to Irish government, as they were one “working” with them, lowering them taxes ...

#

I would understand if Irish government would have to pay for lowering them taxes.

ashen spindle Jul 15, 2020, 11:13 AM

#

... you are acting as if apple had no idea and no malicious intent in cooperating

shadow minnow Jul 15, 2020, 11:14 AM

#

They had idea. But Irish government allowed it (I mean, I doubt they had gun aimed to had, with Apple saying lower us taxes)

ashen spindle Jul 15, 2020, 11:15 AM

#

no they merely had apple telling them if they dont lower it apple will be paying 0$ because they will set up HQ elsewhere

#

aka a machinegun next to their head

#

also jesus christ how can you even try to argue for a company that in the UK just had 1.4 billion in sales and payes 6 million in tax??

the ones in this do imo

old marlin Jul 15, 2020, 8:11 PM

to reduce rattle from the housings

they are quite loose stock

ivory geyser Jul 15, 2020, 8:11 PM

Cant you just lube it?

She can't turn off the phone cause she doesn't know the pattern

#

It's not her lock screen pattern either

sick creek Jul 16, 2020, 12:34 AM

#

lol

#

just let the phone shut itself off after running out of battery

#

rollsafe

wheat plume Jul 16, 2020, 12:35 AM

#

She wants to boot into recovery to do factor reset

sick creek Jul 16, 2020, 12:35 AM

#

guess its gonna be a while

wheat plume Jul 16, 2020, 12:42 AM

#

That's how this showed up

#

Asking for the password to turn off the phone

#

Never seen that before in my life

sick creek Jul 16, 2020, 1:08 AM

#

parental controls i bet

#

owned

frozen anchor Jul 16, 2020, 1:09 AM

#

wouldnt that require root though?

sick creek Jul 16, 2020, 1:09 AM

#

wat

frozen anchor Jul 16, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

to install something that makes a password requirement to turn off

sick creek Jul 16, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

who says you have to install anything? i mean i dont know how parental controls on android work

#

but i dont imagine you'd have to install anything to enable them

frozen anchor Jul 16, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

well nothing like that is on stock but yeah idk what phone that is so it could be using a really modified version of android

sick creek Jul 16, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

makes sense that it's a separate password too lol

wheat plume Jul 16, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

It's Motorola

frozen anchor Jul 16, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

hmm motorola usually uses close to stock android

#

could be a rooted phone then

wheat plume Jul 16, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

Hmm

#

Definitely not rooted by her if it is rooted

#

She doesn't even know what an OS is

frozen anchor Jul 16, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

lol

#

some carriers load their own special os version on their phones

#

could be that

wheat plume Jul 16, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

Carrier locking should be illegal -.-

#

I have two phones laying around the house that mom can't use anymore since changing carrier

#

Only phones I buy are unlocked cause I don't get them locked

frozen anchor Jul 16, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

have you check if there are any exploits to root them

#

you might be able to get rid of the carrier stuff

#

If they allow access of the dev tools you can probably use usb debugging to flash something onto it

wheat plume Jul 16, 2020, 1:24 AM

#

Usb debugging would need to be enabled on dev options

frozen anchor Jul 16, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

yeah probably could only do it if theres an exploit

Ampere seems to come with an all new 12 pin power connector to handle the power draw of the card thonk

#

Apparently made to handle up to 600W

stiff herald Jul 16, 2020, 8:50 AM

RTX 4080 ti
comes with a 16 pin connector

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 8:53 AM

#

you, uh, know that many high end cards already have two 8 pin connectors yes?

#

or even 3 for the extreme OC cards sometimes

stiff herald Jul 16, 2020, 8:54 AM

#

I know
but thats the joke

#

let's just combine 2x8 to make 1x16

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

I mean thats kind of the point of the rumored 12 pin

stiff herald Jul 16, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

yeah
it'll be a very wide pin tho

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

less than two 8 pins though and delivering the same power most likely

stiff herald Jul 16, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

true

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

kinda like the 12VO intel thing, long overdue change probably

stiff herald Jul 16, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

you mean 12 volt only on psu?

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

ye

stiff herald Jul 16, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

I mean.... I dont know why the need
sure psu will be shorter but aren't mobos gonnabe bigger cuz of that?

#

and more expensive generally?

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

should be mostly for OEM and it shouldn't change too much since it's one standard instead of different things

stiff herald Jul 16, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

so its more meant for laptops and the likes? Or what?

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

what

stiff herald Jul 16, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

nvm

#

Altough I'm wondering how that design will work out for mobo manufacturers

The source many tech blogs used to report on @nvidia #Ampere using a new 12 pin PCIE power connector is fake.

This would have been apparent had anyone ran it through a translator.

would make little sense for nvidia to do that tbh

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:21 AM

eh, could be something for internal use or so

#

getting closer to launch means more false leaks but also closer to knowing whats going on

but now I'm wondering
what if future high end gpus use the motherboard pin?

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:27 AM

#

the 24 pin? lmao no

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 9:28 AM

#

what if future high end gpus just have a wallplug

#

also how much power is that romired 12 pin supposed to carry

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:30 AM

#

up to 400ish

#

and max 600 in theory

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 9:30 AM

#

yeaaaaaaa

#

sounds very oversized

#

a 10 pin would already be enough for any modern card

#

more than 2 plugs make very little sense overall either way

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:31 AM

#

I mean an 8 pin could get up to like 320 was it? idk how likely or not that made the 12 pin numbers

#

not too sure on AWG/current/grounding etc.

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 9:32 AM

#

8 pin is rated for 150?

#

no wait that was EPS

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:32 AM

#

ye

#

also it could go up that high or whatever the actual number is on the 8 pin but usually isn't used in that config iirc

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 9:33 AM

#

realistically a single 8 pin is probably more than enough for any card today

#

if you consider that they also can draw 75 watts in spec from the mobo

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:34 AM

#

not with OC

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 9:34 AM

#

and in practice easily 100

#

they could get like 300w out of spec

#

easily

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:35 AM

#

yeah but gl not blowing up cheap psu's when pulling max rating through one cable

#

also OC can easily go above that

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 9:36 AM

#

yea

#

it makes sense to use it as a limitation for psus instead

#

but for the cheapos adapters exist to blow up their psu or burn their pc

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:37 AM

#

thats why a 12 pin sounded realistic, new standard where you can say "needs x watt" or it fails

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 9:37 AM

#

and these

📎 41q463uGSQL.png

#

monkaS

#

10 pin would make more sense though

#

since people wouldn't try to jam 2 6 pin connectors in it

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:39 AM

#

eh, just have it have some weird spacing or smth

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 9:39 AM

#

yeaaaaa

#

people managed to plug in 8 pin eps to 8 pin pcie and the other way around

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 9:40 AM

#

ye

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 10:06 AM

oh, it might be something for pcie5 stuff amybe?

those should land in servers next year so if new power stuff is needed the timing could fit

shadow minnow Jul 16, 2020, 11:54 AM

I mean the CPU block part

#

So many others look better, but are more expensive for less performance

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 11:55 AM

it's almost like its a design to work well and have looks as a secondary concern...

how about 12pins with 1 or 2 missing

#

@ashen spindle @old marlin

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

could work ye

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

you meant as keys?

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

so one in the middle is just blocked etc

fair gull Jul 16, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

@old marlin yes since theres redundant grounds on single 6pins aswell

#

you could prob design smth with "missing pins" as keys

#

and if someone snips of pins from 2 6pin plugs thats just dumb

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 12:57 PM

#

ye would be possible

#

yeaaaa

#

basically impossible to cut them off

#

since they are tightly packed

#

and contain some metal

#

so scissors won't do

#

because rounding holes as keys wasn't enough

#

fair gull Jul 16, 2020, 12:59 PM

better idea

#

we use molex 4pin 4 side by side

#

Kappa

#

lets revive dead connectors

#

then id finally be able to use the cheap psus with one string of 3 molex and 1 4pin floppy

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 1:05 PM

please no

fair gull Jul 16, 2020, 1:06 PM

add the floppy connector to the gpu aswell

molex is so bad

zenith sonnet Jul 16, 2020, 1:08 PM

Either Nvidia wasn't able to tame Ampere quite as much as they hoped, or they're gonna run it way above the sweet spot
But the need for more than 2x 8pin speaks volumes

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 1:09 PM

#

not realistic tbh

#

it would need to be like 400W to be in spec

which would still easily work with that setup

donzo

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 1:11 PM

just make it so gpu and cpu come seperate psu's and you just buy a connector to plug both in the same outlet ez

na

ech connector needs seperate outlet

want 12hdds? get 12 outlets plus what the mb, cpu, gpu and fans need

thats how we fix this issue

even with current gen tech

a card with that amount of powerdraw and tdp is much faster than what is to be expected

let them suck 1000Watt for a 3GHz overclock

ghz doesn;t mean shit on it's own

#

just look at the 9590

fair gull Jul 16, 2020, 2:19 PM

#

the cables of 8pin connectors could do 330watts max on 1 connector

#

but thats when they start burning up

#

so i think 150watts is sensible due to varying wire gauges

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 2:32 PM

instead of 75

and even back then competent news outlets said that it is common

#

not really

#

like there were no issues at all afaik

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 2:34 PM

#

theres a reason the new 1650 skus or whatever the cards where with only pcie power went down in clocks when they got gddr6 memory to stay in 75W packages

old marlin Jul 16, 2020, 2:34 PM

#

well

#

you can make a cleaner power delivery with that

ashen spindle Jul 16, 2020, 2:35 PM

also, it only isnt an issue if you dont really have other pcie slots that ask for power

the people that do usually have much more solid motherboards
