I think i figured it out

[snow rover]

one 3.5 goes into each side of the headphone

[jovial tide]

Oooooooo

that is somethink i didnt think about

Something*

And the big end in the pc?

[snow rover]

i cannot think of an internal soundcard with an xlr output

it goes in the hole it looks like it goes in

[jovial tide]

There is so much i did not know lol

Now im kinda getting it

Btw, will i be able to hear stuff and use a mic without a soundcard?

My knowledge is very limited about the whole sound stuff

[snow rover]

pc motherboards have onboard sound

[jovial tide]

Oh okay

Btw how are you always here when i ask something

Like any time

[snow rover]

spidey senses

[jovial tide]

Thats a perfect answer

btw im very thankful for all the help you give

And for all the help others give

[copper junco]

any one here looking for mil sim operations on ps4 if so dm me****

[main grove]

How get better nvidea card I’m at 720 and I can’t play rdr2 also how get more ram

[snow rover]

you go to a store that sells better nvidea cards and ram

[main grove]

Best Buy?

[snow rover]

that would suffice

[junior flax]

i'd assume go to a store

[twin badger]

You simply download more RAM

£400 budget for new monitor when i get paid in 2 week

any other recommendations?

want a 1440p

[wispy mesa]

4 pinn??

Wait 4 pin

oh yea

[nova steppe]

he senses whenever anyone is using "non-audiophile grade" headphones so that he can shit on them for not having the hunn do 600s from ol pal Senny Boi

[sharp idol]

I use this as my main screen it's great

[twin badger]

Never been a fan of VA displays, idk how well this one performs

[snow rover]

the panel is slow with noticeable black smearing

exactly what you expect from a cheap VA

but you aren't going to get a better ultrawide at that price

20ms response time on average

[twin badger]

Is there a good VA though? Ive heard some samsung VA's are ok

[snow rover]

samsung g7 yes

[cold elbow]

It's most likely a Samsung panel anyway

But im an IPS type gal

[twin badger]

Welp me too, although IPS isn't without its flaws either

[snow rover]

i have been considering the 27GR95QE-B but the autodimming shit is eh

and 1000€ is a bit steep when i'm happy with my current monitor

[dusty crater]

would an asus tuf f15 laptop (rtx 3060, i5 11400h, 16gb ram, 144hz ips) be better or a ps5 disc edition?

ive been really indecisive recently so i came to the server i know the best lol

[snow rover]

that depends entirely on what "better" means to you

[dusty crater]

what can run games better?

obviously the laptop

both are portable

but the price is the main setback

ps5s here are 550 - 600
while the laptop is 1200

[snow rover]

the ps5 will likely run games "better" because optimization

a laptop 3060 is a pretty weak gpu

[lilac heath]

Build a pc for 1200 instead

[dusty crater]

that's for the future

i cant atm due to personal issues lol

for now my best bet is either a laptop or a ps5

[lilac heath]

I would say ps5

[dusty crater]

alright

why not a laptop tho?

just asking

[lilac heath]

.

And it will easily overheat

U are gonna be better off with ps5

[dusty crater]

hmm alright

thanks

[snow rover]

laptops are hot and loud

not a pleasant gaming experience

[dusty crater]

oh yeah especially where I live its hotter than hell in summer

[snow rover]

though of course i would still pick one over a console

[dusty crater]

eh i just wanna have fun lol

i mean desktops are always an option in the future

[cold elbow]

U gonna love 90C

How about

U spend 250$ on a series S? Then hook m&k to it

[dusty crater]

eh id rather get a ps5 instead

[cold elbow]

Do it

Don't get a gaming laptop

Waste of money

U can also do the alpha move and build a miniATX

[junior flax]

ye if its tempoary i'd do this

i have a series s and a pc and i still play on it plenty

[lost fossil]

[junior flax]

also

i found another monitor

i could probably get this on payday

good or not worth it?

[snow rover]

depends on what price you can get the gigabyte m27q-x for

[junior flax]

£631

nah outta budget

i'd have to wait another month and half till next 2 payday

i can only save 200 a month

[junior flax]

bro i dont know anything 😭

[cold elbow]

Only 2 xs

[lost fossil]

yeah cmon even the eggbox series s has that much

[junior flax]

? what about this

144hz is good enough for me

and 32 inch

1440p

[cold elbow]

U went from 1000$ to 300$

[lost fossil]

having seen 32 inch tvs i think 32 inch for a monitor is a bit too big

[junior flax]

sorry if im being annoying asking stupid shit i just dont know much about monitor

[cold elbow]

Listen

[snow rover]

the g5 VA panel is not great

[junior flax]

i went from 500 what

[snow rover]

the G5 IPS is ok

[junior flax]

£480

[cold elbow]

1440p
144hz
27
IPS
DP

Go

[junior flax]

this the 1 u mean?

[snow rover]

no

[junior flax]

ok

[snow rover]

LS27AG500NUXEN

[junior flax]

i'd like to get it from amazon btw cos my last monitor burnt out and they replaced it in 4 days

[snow rover]

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Serie-68-6cm-S27AG5/dp/B097SZT77L

this but it definitely isn't worth that price

[junior flax]

cheers

[cold elbow]

That shit cost a lot

[dusty crater]

are they really that bad lol

[junior flax]

yes

laptop gpus go a few models down usually

in equivalency

[twin badger]

Then again, the same model can have different variations of that chip

Some with higher wattage and thus higher performance

the 4090 mobile has variations ranging from 80 - 150W

It's funny that they had the audacity to call a 80W chip a 4090

Ngreedia at its finest

[supple walrus]

Nope

Melon just hates them to no end

[dusty crater]

true lmao i saw that yesterday

but they do overheat alot

[supple walrus]

I've had a TUF F15 for nearly 1.5 years. Highly recommend

[dusty crater]

wait could u go more in detail

[supple walrus]

Hm?

[dusty crater]

like the pros and cons stuff

[supple walrus]

I'd think they're obvious but eh. I'm tired asf and about to sleep but I'll see if I can write up a list when I wake up

[dusty crater]

alright just ping or dm me

[lost fossil]

i misread that at first 💀

[dusty crater]

stop you're making me read it wrong too

[zinc raft]

hey guys my gta v online is been down for a week on my ps5 what should i do

[hybrid pollen]

for some yes but for some not really. the tuf a15 2022 can go to 97C but the ideapad gaming 3i 2022 not so

more power more heat

[hybrid pollen]

armoury crate kinda sucks. thats the biggest con of asus gaming laptops

[twin badger]

[fervent granite]

if only oled

ever since I got my new phone I can't help but notice how grey ips panels look even if my monitors look superb

[languid narwhal]

Is state tax and VAT the same thing?

[cold elbow]

Maybe

Maybe not

[languid narwhal]

I’m used to state tax, but now that I live in Europe, VAT is new to me

[snow rover]

congratulations on being cured

[strong saffron]

Not sure what state tax is but VAT is an input/output tax. VAT registered businesses can claim the VAT they pay on their purchases, but owe the VAT they receive from their customers

So at the year end they usually just pay the difference to the government

From a consumer perspective, VAT is just added on to the price of whatever you're buying though so it doesn't really matter much.

[languid narwhal]

Ahh. It’s somewhat similar, but state tax is just added on final sale. The extra money added on goes to the respect state where you live at here in the States

[lost fossil]

i think one of the differences is that vat is already included in the pricetag so you don't get scammed at checkout?

[strong saffron]

yep. price you see usually includes VAT

[languid narwhal]

Yea. I was ordering something off Amazon and it was the first time I’ve seen it

Is VAT the same everywhere?

[strong saffron]

everywhere in the same country, probably. i doubt it's the same across the EU

[languid narwhal]

I see. I guess it’s similar. Each state in the US has a different state tax

[languid narwhal]

True

[snow rover]

vat is very different from country to country

[languid narwhal]

I don’t think many people in the states even worry about what is being taxed on what. We just get and buy without a second thought lol

[strong saffron]

I understand why it's done that way but $2 not being able to buy whatever is listed at $2 is kind of weird to me tbh

[languid narwhal]

I’m just so accustomed to it which is why I was confused on what VAT was and why it was under my Amazon cart before I ordered

[junior flax]

im from ul

ul

uk

and jus dont worry bout ir

its already added 90% of the time

itll sometimes say on receipts vat

[spiral jasper]

Bro super fast charging is something else

My phone was at 15% 2 minutes ago and its already at 21

[cold elbow]

I disabled fast charging

[spiral jasper]

Why?

[craggy quartz]

Bc it's damaging battery

[spiral jasper]

Yeah I should have guessed that's why

[craggy quartz]

I'm not him or her but personally that's what I'm thinking

Xiaomi did a phone that'd do 120 watts super charging I think

It's not as good for the battery

They also admet it

[supple walrus]

@dusty crater like the list is quite short honestly
For pros you get a gaming capable platform that is portable that can do basically everyone a PC can
As for cons? Yeah overheating is an issue but it's nowhere near as bad as melon makes it out to be, if it's such a big issue then open up some parts of the frame for better airflow
That and they're often a little heavy, but that's not that big of an issue if you don't plan on lugging it around too much

Like I use my gaming laptop for school partly because I need the extra power for CAD and the like, but you get used to the weight after awhile

Also probably doesn't help that I lug around like 15kg of textbooks lmao

[dusty crater]

is it good for games on medium - high (not max) settings

for example valorant (im not degenerate i swear), gta

etc

[supple walrus]

My laptop with an 11th gen i5 and 3050 can comfortably run basically everything on near Max or movie settings

You'd have no trouble running Val on Max even with a 3050

[dusty crater]

im getting an i5 11400h rtx 3060 16gb ram

would that be good

[supple walrus]

Oh yeah you'd have no trouble XD

Ye

[dusty crater]

so no other issues other than overheating?

how long does it take for the laptop to actually overheat?

[supple walrus]

It's not 'overheating' per se

It's that laptops will run hotter than a well cooled PC, on average

Ie 40-60c for pcs under load vs 80-90c for laptops

@dusty crater

[dusty crater]

oh i see

so not THAT bad?

[supple walrus]

Not anywhere near as bad as melon makes it out to be yeah lol

[dusty crater]

not just melon lol, ive seen people say it'll turn in to your personal sun

[junior flax]

ye but they r prepared for that

[supple walrus]

Yeah no lol

[junior flax]

like they r built to reach them temps

obvs not sun but

they r built to survive reaching 90c

where as a pc long term.. wouldnt i'd assume

[dusty crater]

it's not that long term

[junior flax]

nono laptops csn last a while

[dusty crater]

i just dont want it to decrease in performance as the same thing happend to my old one i had in 2016

and it eventually broke

[supple walrus]

But yeah no regardless I'd highly recommend a gaming laptop as a cheaper entry level platform. Like I loved the pc 'platform' experience and I'm now planning to build a fairly beefy performance PC when I finish school this year

[junior flax]

sadly with laptops thats their fate

cant easily upgrade

[dusty crater]

i plan to build a pc when i actually have space

[supple walrus]

That's not exclusive to laptops. If you don't upgrade your PC it'll die eventually too

[dusty crater]

it was really old so that's probably why

[junior flax]

ye but what i mean is with a pc u can upgrade over time where as a laptop you have to buy a whole new 1

if u want to upgrade

[junior flax]

ye

[dusty crater]

so in summary, a laptop shouldn't be that bad of a choice?

[supple walrus]

Depends on the laptop. There's some fairly modular laptops out there and most gaming Laptops have availability for extra ram and storage

[junior flax]

for sure

[dusty crater]

or not a bad one at all

[supple walrus]

Yea for sure

[junior flax]

ye thats true

[dusty crater]

im pretty sure on the tuf f15 u can add more ram

no?

[junior flax]

getting a laptop/pc is more just your situation

[supple walrus]

Yup, I did, storage too

[junior flax]

whichever fits ur situation more

[dusty crater]

oh i see

[supple walrus]

32gb ram, 2.5tb total storage on mine

[dusty crater]

its just cheaper, compact and portable

[supple walrus]

M2 NVME

[dusty crater]

that's why i want it

[junior flax]

ah nice

if u can get for good price and it fits ur situation go for it

[dusty crater]

fits both

and i can do more than play games too

[junior flax]

👍

[dusty crater]

i know alot about desktops but not that much about laptops, that's why i had some pretty weird questions lol

[supple walrus]

Well if you need anything else, I'll be here, don't hesitate to ask

I use the f15 so I'll be able to help with specific questions for that platform

[dusty crater]

will do, thanks

[lilac heath]

Tuf has poor cooling tho

Temps easily reach 80-85c for GPU
And 95-100 for CPU

💀

Until Hardware Unboxed,a yt channel which drilled holes in its chassis to improve cooling and airflow

Ryzen cpus have a throttle limit of 100c i think

[frank agate]

:exclamation:To contact the Moderators, please send me a Direct Message. Mentioning me does not alert moderators:exclamation:

[lilac heath]

Same
I would have gotten a pc instead tbh if the prices weren't so insane at that time when a 3060 alone used to cost $1K
So i got Tuf A17

[supple walrus]

yea no for me at the time a laptop was the most appropriate for my situation

but i will be building a PC later this year when i finish school

[lilac heath]

I'm gonna build a pc this year aswell

[supple walrus]

lol nice

[lilac flare]

I hate my ISP sm I try to call them and they hear my mum's voice and they're always sexist "internet and wifi is different things" "are you connected to your wifi?"

dumb ISP fr

[lilac heath]

Rtx 3080 right?

[supple walrus]

Yeah or 4080, undecided yet

[lilac heath]

4080

[lost fossil]

not bad fps in online with these graphics

[lilac heath]

1440p?

[lost fossil]

1080 but it used to be worse with an amd 3600

[lilac heath]

Yea online is cpu intensive

I get 70-80fps in online with same settings but with 2x msaa and mfaa

[junior flax]

isps usually take advantage of women/older people

they did it to my mum too reducing our speeds over time until it became unusual

then sending over a free "internet booster" (did nothing but reduce speeds from 50mb to 5 and packet loss+ping 10x)

[rustic fox]

Hey guys I wanted to get some of your opinions for play gta on a pc

I was looking at getting a
Intel i7
RTX 3060
16GB RAM

I mainly wanna play fivem do yous think it will run smoothly?

[lost fossil]

intel i7 is about as descriptive as nvidia geforce

you need an ssd for fivemerde

[rustic fox]

Okay but do u think my cpu could handle fivem?

[lilac heath]

Yes

[rustic fox]

Alright thank yous 🙏

I’ve been stressing it cause it’s so much money haha

[lilac heath]

Get 3060ti instead

[lilac heath]

Which cpu is it?

[twin badger]

How are they sexist though?

[snow rover]

but internet and wifi are different things

[twin badger]

Well ok, they really aren't, but again, i am still confused about that statement

[snow rover]

they are in fact completely different

wifi is just a wireless protocol

[twin badger]

[snow rover]

you can have wifi without internet and internet without wifi

[twin badger]

Here goes the 200 iq explanations

[snow rover]

i don't understand how the isp saying "internet and wifi are different things" is bad when it's completely true

[twin badger]

Either way, that statement still was out of place

About em being somehow sexist

[snow rover]

well that i agree with

[rustic fox]

Intel i7 man

[lilac heath]

i7 what?

[snow rover]

i7 920

What's the difference between regular windows 10 and windows 10 pro

[fervent granite]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_editions#Comparison_chart

Other than maybe group policy, bitlocker and windows sandbox it just has more features you'll probably never use

Pro also lets you use up to 2 tb of ram vs home's 128 gb if you're a mad man

[lilac heath]

2tb ram

[fervent granite]

could replace graphics card with excess ram

[languid narwhal]

What does someone do with 2TB of ram

Better question, what warrants having that much ram

[fervent granite]

Stuff like virtual machines, research computers or rendering farms I reckon

[junior flax]

workload stuff

it wouldnt be for day to day gaming/work stuff

[lost fossil]

sexist in assuming that the person on the other end of the phone is because they sound like a woman

though tbf it makes sense to make sure if they're talking about internet or wifi not working because they're different issues that might require a different technician depending on how that particular isp's tech support works

[lost fossil]

one thing is acting about little things that barely make a difference and another is saying that 2 completely different things are the same thing

anyway idk about u but i personally would still make sure if they're talking about their phone not receiving the wifi signal or their router not receiving the internet, regardless of their sexgender

[twin badger]

Well, i never said i had an issue with this part

[lilac flare]

they think my mum is an idiot and stuff and are useless

[snow rover]

is that really an unreasonable assumption though

[rapid lake]

It’s safe to assume most people above the age of 35-40 are clueless about this stuff, no matter weather they’re a man or woman

[snow rover]

zoomers are even more clueless honestly

[junior flax]

i would say some do take advantage

i've saw it with my parents

[rapid lake]

Yeah obviously that does happen, and as a result people will have their bank account information logged because they clicked on a suspicious link

[twin badger]

And is it unreasonable to think your mom is not tech savy?

It really doesn't have anything to do with her being a woman

that operator would act the same way towards an older man, though usually, and this IS a fact, men are more tech savy

[lilac heath]

Yes

[supple walrus]

debatable

often depends on developer philosophy

console first games will be more optimised usually, but pc first/oriented? often very very shit

[twin badger]

Like, cmon razer

[loud cave]

viper mini

is good enough

i have one its super light and has very good battery life

[twin badger]

What

[lilac heath]

Hogwarts Legacy is a good example that how much bad the optimisation really is on pc

Same issue with Elden Ring

[fervent granite]

Or they could just flat out not care

Minecraft bedrock still doesn’t take advantage of series xs power

[twin badger]

Shoulda used Forspoken as an example instead

Hogwarts legacy runs way better than Forspoken

AMD still cant solve their driver problems💀

[twin badger]

Thats normal for new driver releases

I usually wait for a while before updating the drivers

22.1.2. so far hasnt caused a single BSOD

[cold elbow]

Yeah i wait for nvidia also

[cold elbow]

Lol this embed
Also I've been using fdm for years.

[supple walrus]

FDM is great

I love it

[cold elbow]

Only thing that annoys me about it that i have to manually install the chrome extension from chrome store.

[lilac heath]

https://www.hardwaretimes.com/amd-radeon-rx-6000-gpus-up-to-40-faster-in-ray-tracing-with-new-adrenalin-driver-update/amp/

This prompted more users to update their drivers for better performance but they got corrupted Windows instead

Also once u update your driver,u wont be able to roll back
U will have to reinstall Windows 💀

[twin badger]

Thats just false

Use DDU and uninstall em

[lilac heath]

I've had issues with Nvidia aswell but it got fixed by switching to studio drivers

But not this severe

[cold elbow]

U get more issues with AMD drivers BUT usually over time you get more performance from your card which balance things out.

[lilac heath]

What about data loss

[twin badger]

AMD has something similar

Called the Pro edition

They are supposed to be more stable, because they are designed primarily for workstation systems

Where a driver failure is far less acceptable

[lilac heath]

AMD is just plagued with driver issues

[twin badger]

Not nearly as much as they used to

It just sounds like you are misinformed

I've had AMD cards for over 3 years now, with each card the pattern is that the drivers are more stable

[lilac heath]

I had issue with amd in which windows used to randomly downgrade Radeon software which would in turn cause bsod

I had to re install it everytime

[twin badger]

Also, i had a video playback issue on my card, it was due to MPO

Guess where i found the fix for that

Nvidia forum

[lilac heath]

[twin badger]

Thats not Amd's fault

Thats windows thinking you need a different driver version

[lilac heath]

Never happened with GeForce Experience

[twin badger]

I am sure you can find the same thing happening with nvidia too

Just because you havent had that issue, doesnt mean its not happening

I dont get random BSOD's, other people do

[lilac heath]

[snow rover]

5700xt is by far the worst pc component I've ever had

just issues upon issues

[twin badger]

Yea, ive heard of the issues with the 5000 series

[supple walrus]

tbh

yeah AMD is cheaper

but i buy nvidia more for just consistency and software rather than the hardware

like

Geforce especially

i cant live without it

like AMD software does the job, but Geforce is just so intuitive and much more fluid + capable

[lost fossil]

hasn't been happening to me

[lilac heath]

Would be good if u roll back to previous driver

[lilac heath]

True

U pay more for better stability

[supple walrus]

Yup

[twin badger]

Stable enough for me

It all depends on pricing

I was originally gonna go for a 3060

But got an offer for a 6700xt for that same price

[lilac heath]

3060ti is a better value for money

[cold elbow]

That's probably a windows issue

[lilac heath]

[cold elbow]

It dud the same few months ago with arc

So u can just disable it

[lilac heath]

Same i've also disabled automatic driver updates

[rapid lake]

There we go. I don't think download managers get better than this.

Although for the vscode issue, just install it via Winget or something

[snow rover]

where do you buy small quantities of obscure electronic components

digikey and mouser are great except the shipping is far too expensive for small orders

just toss the shit in an envelope and mail to me for 5 bucks

[twin badger]

Digikey sounds more like a website for game/program activation codes

[lost fossil]

i remember one time i bought a rapidgator premium bc i needed to download over a terabyte of stuff from there and after downloading all of it with jd, the available traffic @ rapidgator went down only by a few gigabytes

[charred otter]

So in simple terms you blew it up cuz you downloaded a bunch of stuff

[arctic yarrow]

Yup

i got a Z400 workstation for free and i wanna know if i can just hook it up and play some R6 or Besiege and stuff like that

[arctic yarrow]

type in "dxdiag" in the search bar and post a screenshot of the "system" and "display" tabs

[stuck lichen]

ok

uh

[arctic yarrow]

hmm, that's not right

I meant on the workstation

[stuck lichen]

oh

its not hooked up

[arctic yarrow]

Ah, gotcha

[stuck lichen]

i got nothing rn i just wanna know if its worth my time to go buy the cables for it and buy games

[arctic yarrow]

It might be worth your time, depending on the specs. However, the only real way to know what the specs are is to boot it up and check.

[stuck lichen]

it came with a paper saying all its specs

i lost it

i could open it up and show you

[arctic yarrow]

A lot of workstations do have dedicated graphics cards, but how good they are depends on what type of card it is.

Sure

Let's see it

[arctic yarrow]

That card is a bit ancient. You're gonna struggle with R6 and Besiege.

To give you an idea, it was released in 2009

I'm going to assume the CPU in there is a Core 2 Quad era CPU.

Probably an old Xeon

An Xbox One would have much better specs.

[stuck lichen]

gyatttt

my xbox could run siege

all im looking for

60fps with vsync, mid graphics

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, that PC isn't gonna cut it unfortunately.

[stuck lichen]

damn

30?

[arctic yarrow]

Maybe if you turn the resolution down to 720p and drop all settings to low.

[stuck lichen]

GYAAAAATTTTT

what is the main source of horribleness that i could upgrade?

[arctic yarrow]

To be brutally honest, literally everything but the case would need to be swapped out.

[stuck lichen]

lmaooooo

[arctic yarrow]

Maybe the PSU could be kept depending on the wattage.

[stuck lichen]

i need a job fr

[arctic yarrow]

But yeah, you're not gonna have a fun time with 14 year old hardware.

I mean, you might if you play old titles.

@stuck lichen here's a possible build you could look at to start out with
https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/DWv6Mp/entry-level-amd-gaming-build

Depending on your country, it may be more or less expensive.

[stuck lichen]

dayum $400

[arctic yarrow]

Yup

If you throw out the case, it would be $330

[stuck lichen]

DAYUM $300

ok

siege

[arctic yarrow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHU0zMuvpYg

You're looking at 60-70fps on medium settings 1080p with the integrated graphics on the CPU.

[stuck lichen]

ez

ill prolly get a jobie this summer

[arctic yarrow]

Throw in a new GPU later down the line and you have a solid mid-high tier gaming PC.

[stuck lichen]

can a pc run without a case

can i just set it on cardboard

[arctic yarrow]

It can, but it's highly recommended you use a case.

In this case, you can repurpose that workstation chassis for it.

[stuck lichen]

idk anything about pcs id have to watch someone do it and then do it with them and then have them look at me do it and then i could do it alone lmaoo

i saw that in the corner of my eye

i have no idea what it was but i saw it

[arctic yarrow]

I guess the automod took it down for possibly having a blacklisted word, I'll DM you

[stuck lichen]

ight bet

[lilac heath]

Get an xbox series s or something instead tbh

[stuck lichen]

you mean play on it

[lilac heath]

Yea

Do not expect a gpu from 2009 that it will be able to run modern games 💀

[arctic yarrow]

Repurposing the chassis and going with that AMD build would cost $330 tho, and he has the option to add a dedicated GPU later.

[lilac heath]

5600G?

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah. It can play r6:seige and beseige for now at 1080p medium just fine, and the CPU is a good pairing for modern GPUs.

[lilac heath]

5600G is a good cpu

Guys, Blue Light isn't harmful unless you look into a laser! - and then the wavelenght doesn't matter anyway! - it's a matter of energy, no display is capable of outputting harmful amounts of concentrated light .

(unless you using CRT monitors still, but they shot electrons at you, not only light!)

What you should keep in mind however, is how our brain reacts to blue stimuli - we get more wake, wich is why you shouldn't look at a display before bed - those blue light filters only mitigate that effect to some extend, as you still stare at a freaking light source! 😉 - simply read a book in warm light or go on a walk to calm down 😉

(and wich is why workspaces are lid with "cold" temperature light - it really helps to focus on what you're doing)

[vernal bloom]

Need help with my gta graphics

I have low end pc so i put the graphics to to normal and everything was fine and on the video memory it was on green but today i started to have graphics problem the map would not load or character by when i check the graphics they are still the same is i put it but the video memory is full somehow? Is there anything i could do to turn it back to how it was?

[jovial tide]

hmm

well

that was very stupid

[jovial tide]

I have the same issue with FIVEM, what i did this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9umdV2mPb0

run a antivirus, if that does not help you have two options:

1. Reinstall windows (Depending on how serious the virus is.)
2. Try to boot into the desktop, and check for any suspicious apps.
3. Change every password, for every account and reset all 2FA information.

[lilac heath]

Go to advance graphics and turn everything off

Normal settings doest not consume 4.5gb of vram

Also use dx11

if i'm gonna be brutally honest, my liking of steve kinda fell off in the last few months

[cold elbow]

why

talks too much or repeats himself too much

[lost fossil]

a lot of his roasts and jabs at various companies are often uncalled for

which is somewhat of a petty thing to be upset about but like

are you here to review stuff and tell the news or to be a second grade clown

[brave field]

errr

I think after realizing how loved it was when the product being mocked was a complete disaster, he's trying his hand at everything

[finite oracle]

love Steve / tech Jesus

[lost fossil]

it's fine when the product is a disaster, but a lot of time he does that to products that are absolutely fine

you know how he trash talks anime products, which btw is also uncalled for, but whatever, i as a weeb also trash talk it for the lulz

very similar approach to some other products which are totally fine

[night halo]

TBH, i can get your point - all that pitty against past bad experiences with companys that might even be unrelated to the topic entirely, is silly at best - but he's also just a human, and all that anger and disappointment, especially how some brands acted&reacted to them, has to go somewhere! - and if you keep that in mind, it's still bearable and he's not any more biased than any of us, and very clear about what he's talking about and what not - at least i don't have the impression of him picking one brand over another, despite i personally do and have to admit that he does proove my bias most of the time - but others do aswell! - and i think some brands do indeed so badly, that they deserve to be called out for it - and i don't even take guard for my beloved MSI, they also did some at best questionable things! - the thing we all shouldn't forget, those Brands consists of several thousand employees all over the world - even Greedybyte might spit out something good and maybe even for a reasonable prize - it's not like any Brand always produces the best Product, all have had bad decisionmaking and product flaws that made you question their expertise - but how they deal with it matters, and while some took responsibility, others denied it till Steve stepped up and put a spotlight onto it - if he takes pitty on the stressfull fights he has fought, he deserves a bit tolerance for it - what matters in the end of the day is their non-manipulated Data taken from fair test szenarios!

[night halo]

please don't invalidate yourself and say something else than Nvidias still stupid connector! - while indeed turned out to be less of a problem than it seemed, it's still propriatary garbage that doesn't benefit the user at all, and worsens the Problem of the whole power connection issue!
Srsly, if they wanted they could have employeed some electricians to redesign the Power connector to mitigate the contact issue and maybe some product designers to make it userfriendly and actually foolproof - if then a flaw might have came up that might be hard to test okay, shit happens - but they designed a bad connector without real need (if you stick yet another PCI-E or even 4x 8-Pin really makes no difference to the enduser, other than he might need more cables - but in production cost, that 50 cents to 1-2 bucks spared add up quickly mate, and might have justified the "R"&D of a new propriatary connector, especially as the R part of it seems to have been a short meeting and the D phase also cut corners - i'm actually disappointed that didn't get called out further, how unbelievable lazy Nvidia developed that thing!

[night halo]

@sour marsh do you think adding 150$ on top of my 3070 to get a 3080 a good deal? both used cards but the 3080 comes with 2 years warranty

Especially w the warranty n stuff

10gb vram or 12?

[iron lantern]

it doesnt really matter

10gb 3080 is fine

[lilac heath]

It does

[iron lantern]

12gb is overpriced

for minor performance gains

[lilac heath]

3060 performs better than 3080 10gb due to vram limitation

In Hogwarts Legacy

[iron lantern]

and one good apple compares to the rest?

isnt it a 200$ increase for 2 extra gbs?

[lilac heath]

10gb wont be future proof imo

[iron lantern]

neither will the 30 series be

[lilac heath]

[iron lantern]

future proofing at this point is kind of a dead topic

[lilac heath]

This is how games in 2023 will be

[iron lantern]

games and game engines doesnt take in all of the newer gen's capabilities

and those that do

get capped

[lilac heath]

They will require high amount of vram

[iron lantern]

then just get a 4070

[lilac heath]

Maybe

[iron lantern]

allbeit u have a shitty pin that might melt on u

i need to start getting up to date on everything

[lilac heath]

Hogwarts Legacy is just a single game which has this vram problem

[iron lantern]

pot was kind of dry for the last few months

[lilac heath]

Nvm plague tale also has the same problem

[iron lantern]

yea a lot of newer games are running into optimization issues for some reason

guess that faster vram doesnt always mean faster

[lilac heath]

Unless u wanna play games before 2020 or 21,8gb vram would be sufficient

[lilac heath]

[iron lantern]

id say by 2040 most games still wont take full advantage of 40 series

[lilac heath]

Lol

[iron lantern]

its going to be capped out by engine performance

[lilac heath]

Like gta is capped at 188 fps

[cold elbow]

I refused the offer since they want 170$ on top of my card... and yeah the performance difference is not there
2 extra gigs is also not that much either.

[twin badger]

Well, thats where AMD cards shine

My GPU rivals the 3060ti/3070 and has 12 gb vs 8 gb for the nvidia counterparts

You might use the argument that "oh, but these nvidia models have 256-bit memory bus as opposed to AMD's 192-bit", which is fair, however, i bought the card as more of an alternative to 3060, since i found one for the same price, and that does indeed have 192-bit memory bus aswell and the same 12 gigs of memory

[lilac heath]

true

[cold elbow]

Would of gone for AMD honestly but i need it for some engineering applications that needs nvidia features.

[twin badger]

Yeah, CUDA is hard to beat

Then again, AMD is more centered towards their CPU's, since those have a higher market share than the cards

You could achieve steps one and two with just a call to your shell with chrome yourwebsite.com, find out if the site puts your search terms in the url (like search engines), and put user input into that

If you don't have that option, maybe write a macro with PyAutoGUI, or fully control the browser with Selenium. Also consider requests or BeautifulSoup if you just need the data and not the whole browser window

Didn't work

Controller #2 had the same fate

They just exist now

[brave field]

which part is "band" referring to?

[charred otter]

This case is my part graveyars

Controller #2 was not put back together because i didn't have the tweezers to put the band in the slot

[brave field]

o, the ribbon cable connecting the rear shell?

might be the component it connects to that was broken when it wasn't working before being taken apart

[charred otter]

I think i might take a second look at it at some point this week as the red controller was perfect other than its sticks were drifty hence the attempt to take it apart

Unfortunately i may have trouble figuring out which part goes to it as i believe its a newer controller and the other one is older

[charred otter]

Ok so if i were to buy a pre built what is the best to order it from?

I wanna have both options

[frigid echo]

That is a small form factor case. The biggest video cards you can put in them are like gt 1030 size. Because you have to remove the plate on the video card to put the small form factor one on.

[charred otter]

Im not gonna get it trust

But id love some recommendations for sites that i can get a pre built

That way i have it as an option

[twin badger]

prebuilts typically suck ass

Building it yourself is pretty easy, as long as you follow the proper instructions

It's almost like playing with legos

you insert a bunch of stuff into the right places

and in some places tighten up with a screwdriver

that's about it

[charred otter]

So I'll just do what i originally planned

[twin badger]

If you originally planned to build it yourself, please do so

[charred otter]

I will lol

[twin badger]

You will also have a much bigger freedom of what parts you actually want in your system

and you can hunt for deals

and get it for significantly cheaper

[charred otter]

Hey guys, i need help . Soo i have an old hdd with windows7 installed on it . But now i have a new pc with windows10 and a whole different storage system. I wanted to browse my files from the old hdd so i pluged it in my mother board but its not showing up in "this pc" . There's no new drive added to "this pc". Im sure the hdd works and all. The only thing that has changed is, that there's a new "network" tab available in "this pc" when i click on it , there's a desktop computer but it opens nothing , just a blank folder. Please help me

[hoary pier]

Tell me how can i acces my files from the old hdd in my new pc

[sharp idol]

Have you connected both sata cable and power cable?

[hoary pier]

Check dms please

Does the drive shows up on BIOS?

I've had my own fair share of these storage drive issues

where they would refuse to just show up on the BIOS

even though i replug them like 20 times

and change up which ports which cable goes in

it was a nightmare

[brave field]

I think AMD is in big trouble

[iron lantern]

explain

@brave field

[lost fossil]

type diskmgmt.msc in the search bar and open it, see if the drive shows up in there, maybe you need to assign a drive letter

[burnt loom]

Don't think that's the case

that interior shows so much more than a funny lithium battery - gros, not even my schrotti looks that dirty after 2 years not cleaning it xP - especially how he got so much dirt in there??? - it looks like something that's pretty sealed compared to my thinkpads!

[night halo]

why do you use a radiator as intake instead as exhaust? - also make sure you have more intake fans than outtake fans, and use dust filters on them 😉

[hexed crystal]

its not mine lol

[fervent granite]

not sure why tbh, this particular one I think is a macbook pro probably 2015?

[fervent granite]

I got a 2014 one a few years back and that thing was just as filthy

[night halo]

then show you friend these two:

Jesus Christ, userbenchmark. Your bias is completely unmasked.

[arctic yarrow]

Granted, their credibility is already in the 13th layer of hell.

[snow rover]

it's so bad i thought this was fake when I first saw it

but no, that's actually written on the website

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, clearly completely unhinged ranting.

[twin badger]

They whine about others falsifying information about them and paint them as a terrible site, yet they do shit like this. They are hypocrites

It's a god awful site and its sad so many people probably unironically use it as an information source

to bad it's not about the Imperialists - to many ppl still buy intel despite their consumer hostile policies and artificially restricted hardware! (don't get me wrong, if Intel rly is the only good choice, i also take it - but i take alternatives wherever i can!)

[twin badger]

In short - brand loyalty

I get it

Its similar with nvidia

[night halo]

...wich at least i can somewhat understand, as some games do run better with Nvidia thx to their cooperation with developers - but idk a single application that runs outright better on Intel than on AMD, even with Bulldozer crap - it always was an option, and unless CPU Power really needed, a good and economically often the better one! - but ofc that decision everyone has to decide for themselves - it's just as stupid blindly buying AMD! (A-Series 🤮 - so glad i'd missed that!) - my critique point being just that we as consumers feed corporate behaviors trough our purchases - because we make them work as intended! - sometimes you just have to say no and boykott till they improved!

Ofc need comes first, but most ppl overestimate their needs! 😉

[twin badger]

Eh, yeah, i can also understand the appeal of Nvidia, i think in the case of nvidia and amd it all boils down to the fps per dollar and your personal needs

[jovial tide]

what do you guys think of xbox elite controller 2?

[lost fossil]

doesn't fix the issue where the left stick is in the wrong place

[small mural]
