I have finally managed to launch the BF6 beta

Thanks for coming to my tedtalk

[quaint helm]

maybe tmr almost 4am right now

[young garden]

[civic cloud]

Ew

[twin badger]

Which one you got currently?

[muted mantle]

3060ti

[twin badger]

9060xt is faster, but not by that much and the price is still attrocious

[quaint helm]

but that price....not worth at all lol

[twin badger]

Should be sub-300

[twin badger]

Yep

Funny how i looked up the same graph lol

Great minds thinkalike

[quaint helm]

3080 still surviving

[twin badger]

Great card, bit powerhungry and lacks some newer features, but still hell of a card

Especially if you get your hands on the 12 gb model

[muted mantle]

there is one for sale at 380, but there is also a 6800xt with 16 gigs for 400

[thin turtle]

12 GB 3080?

[muted mantle]

yea

ill show

[thin turtle]

Buy

[muted mantle]

wait no nvm its the 10gb variant

[thin turtle]

[muted mantle]

there actually are two 12gb 3080 cards on sale

too much

[thin turtle]

Ti

[muted mantle]

compared to this

[lilac heath]

Tie

[muted mantle]

yeah there are no non ti variants

[thin turtle]

The regular 3080 12GB will perform close to the 3080Ti

The card doesn't only have more VRAM but also more cores

[muted mantle]

yea

[thin turtle]

At 400, it would best the 6800XT

But anyway

[proper sundial]

You should play you're an engineer if not then you're not an engineer

[muted mantle]

gpu at literally max settings

why does it have 16gb shared memory though

from the igpu?

[thin turtle]

I don't wanna work twice

[proper sundial]

It's fun I'll help you

You're rookie

[thin turtle]

No from the actual RAM

[proper sundial]

Am expert

[muted mantle]

oh ok

[proper sundial]

You'll become good then

[muted mantle]

i have 32 gigs though

[thin turtle]

Idk how that work tbh

[snow rover]

81c skull emoji

how is like 100w tdp card getting that hot

[thin turtle]

But there's a overflow or something

[quaint helm]

dust and bad airflow i believe

[thin turtle]

It's what indicates a vram limitation

[muted mantle]

maximum rt in that game

80c is big but huh, its not that bad i guess

[proper sundial]

Yes it's not don't worry

[thin turtle]

You'll see a spike in ram utilisation while vram is at about 85%

[proper sundial]

It's totally fine

[quaint helm]

o wait this consider good when i play F1 24 my gpu temp = like 80-90 iirc

[muted mantle]

you say huh

the airflow in this is ASS

[thin turtle]

Add fans

[muted mantle]

35e per noctua

[thin turtle]

I don't see the possibility of airflow issues

[thin turtle]

Buy arctic

[proper sundial]

Everything is fine

[snow rover]

and that's why you don't buy noctua

[muted mantle]

alr ill check prices

[void turret]

Wait

[thin turtle]

You might not need a pc after all

You just need fans

[muted mantle]

true, but what about the size?

[thin turtle]

What size

The gpu?

[muted mantle]

no the size of the case

this thing is massive

https://datatronic.fi/komponentit/jaahdytys/b-stock-arctic-p12-max-tietokonekotelo-tuuletin-12-cm-musta-5-kpl-arctic-acfan00289a

[thin turtle]

The 3080 is like 350 mm

[snow rover]

p12 pro > p12 max

[muted mantle]

23e thats nice

[thin turtle]

The triple fan model

[void turret]

And you get 5

[muted mantle]

[snow rover]

too expensive

[void turret]

Also good price

[muted mantle]

whats a better price?

[snow rover]

25

[void turret]

P12 Max then?

[snow rover]

no

[void turret]

:D

[thin turtle]

Do you have a measuring tape? Or the case spec sheet?
I wanna know the width please

[void turret]

Hmn, gotta check which one I have

[muted mantle]

the case? ill search

[thin turtle]

Though your case look at least 45 cm wide

Takes up most of that tabke width

[muted mantle]

495 x 290 x 466 mm

[thin turtle]

Omg man

You could fit a 5090

[muted mantle]

yea i could

[thin turtle]

Probably

[muted mantle]

easily

[thin turtle]

Then what seems to be the issue with the case?

[muted mantle]

the use case for it

[thin turtle]

I wanna buy one of these cases too

[muted mantle]

i move around the country with my pc

[thin turtle]

Very convenient

[thin turtle]

You should be worried about the desk and the monitor more tbh

[muted mantle]

for what reason?

the weight of the case?

[thin turtle]

When you move around, disconnect the gpu and put it in the box

[muted mantle]

This case supports very large graphics cards up to 435 mm in length, along with CPU air coolers up to 165 mm in height.

i mean yeah its large

[muted mantle]

aight

[thin turtle]

And the rest should be light enough

[muted mantle]

yeah i still have the foam inside the box

[quaint helm]

just put some airbags or those bubble wrap

[thin turtle]

But I understand the lack of handles is inconvenient yeah

[muted mantle]

and its footprint is massive

[thin turtle]

Yeah I feel you

[muted mantle]

yea idfk this gpu can run the game at max rt with secondary bounces really well, 80c is a bit toasty though

so yeah, just more fans

6 to be exact

[void turret]

How many now

[muted mantle]

i have at the moment this (#tech-coding-math message) amount of fans

plus two from cpu cooler

i did NOT think about thermals 3 years ago

[void turret]

3 in, 1 out?

[muted mantle]

yea

the next step would be to add 3 to the top and bottom to act as exhaust and intake respectively

[craggy thicket]

Banned noxgiuli (Case #390474) (user notified with a direct message)

[muted mantle]

but yeah @snow rover 37 is too much? the max'es cost 23, is that better?

[snow rover]

yes but you should just buy the pros for 25

or whatever they cost that isn't 36

[muted mantle]

cheapest is 26 without postage

[snow rover]

so buy that

[muted mantle]

its 33 with

[void turret]

5x pros for 26? Where

[lost fossil]

what in the hell

[muted mantle]

proshop

[void turret]

Nice

[snow rover]

buy something else too to offset the shipping

[muted mantle]

yeah no
"Buy 73.76e more, get free shipping"

[thin turtle]

Buy the gpu

[muted mantle]

yeah sure let me see if they have those in stock

its 2 generations old

[thin turtle]

[muted mantle]

they have a water block for it

[snow rover]

i mean if the shipping cost is like 7€, when you buy 2 items it's only 3.5 per item

[muted mantle]

[thin turtle]

Not it is still a 7 per item

[muted mantle]

no its 7 for the entire order

[thin turtle]

As they will come in one package eventually

[muted mantle]

where are you buying from

[thin turtle]

I'm not buying anything

[void turret]

And the package has 5 fans so 1,4€ postage per fan

[thin turtle]

No

😞

[quaint helm]

mmmm ik buy like 73euro worth of fan and go to some hardware shop to buy those tall screw maximum airflow

[muted mantle]

[quaint helm]

at that point i scared u start to faint bcus lack of oxygen

[void turret]

Does she replace the glass panel with fans?

[quaint helm]

create holes

[quaint helm]

case? nah , fans? yeah

[thin turtle]

@muted mantle your case can't be this crammed

[muted mantle]

its not

[quaint helm]

pov : that bottom fan is useless

[thin turtle]

[muted mantle]

i mean it could cool the psu

but yeah, useless

[void turret]

Is this your pc

[void turret]

A cable cooler

[thin turtle]

Yes

It's old foto

[void turret]

Where is new

[thin turtle]

Idk this one

[civic cloud]

Again

[quaint helm]

o wait that botton fan moved

[muted mantle]

the case is big and has good airflow (if there were fans on it) but the footprint is still massive

thats the problem that i would solve with a sff pc

[thin turtle]

Do as you please sire

[muted mantle]

the case supports full length gpus anyways

[thin turtle]

Is this a mechanical keyboard weakness

[snow rover]

no it's a strength

you can replace individual switches instead of the whole keyboard

[void turret]

So he need to go to invidual switch store to buy a new one

[thin turtle]

Is there something I should look for in a switch

[snow rover]

you should probably look for the same switch as the rest of the keyboard

[lost fossil]

or the same color at least if it's one of the basic cherry ones

[void turret]

different color to keep count how many switches has given up

[lost fossil]

no

if, for example, his keyboard has blue switches, god forbid, then it would be best if he got blue spare switches to keep the same switch characteristics

or get a box of switches to replace all of them bc blue is danschamp

[void turret]

Should I buy a mechanical keyboard?

[rapid lake]

Good keyboards come with spare switches

Unlike my keyboard

[snow rover]

good keyboards do not come with switches

[rapid lake]

It’s a huge improvement

[rapid lake]

Really good keyboards do not come, they get manifested into existence

is it a hotswappable keyboard

If...
I change the aio location from the top to the front, which side should top fans blow in/out?

[muted mantle]

yup, now lets see what Germany has to offer

[muted mantle]

uuh idk about radiators but front should be the intake and back should be the exhaust

[stone apex]

Complicated...

[quaint helm]

in , free cooling for ram

[muted mantle]

the fans blow air out from their backside (labels, wires, etc.), so you just have to put the fans facing away from the way you want the air to flow

[muted mantle]

in proshop

[void turret]

Great

[muted mantle]

ill check how much the shipping costs

they only ship to Germany

mailboxde should work though

[snow rover]

mailboxde is amazing

[muted mantle]

but im not making an accout just to check shipping fees

[stone apex]

Now I have to deal with all this pasta...

[snow rover]

i can check for you if you want

[muted mantle]

stick it in the cavity underneath

[snow rover]

of course you have to know the size of the package

[muted mantle]

oh alr ty

[stone apex]

I mean understand which one is to what connected.

oh then idk

[muted mantle]

ill check

[stone apex]

No wonder why car electricians require so much money for their job...

[muted mantle]

from the official website

[muted mantle]

yeah no wonder, i didnt buy additional fans so i havent dealt with it yet

[muted mantle]

@snow rover

[snow rover]

i mean you aren't just going to get the product box

[muted mantle]

oh true

uuh

[snow rover]

it's like 20€

[muted mantle]

thats the shipping

[snow rover]

that's the shipping

mailboxde's own fee is 4€ per package

[muted mantle]

shit

proshop it is then

if i understood correctly

yep i did

[snow rover]

well ofc you wouldn't pay a package forwarder just for a pack of fans

[muted mantle]

Look it up?

[quaint helm]

if ur fan uses rgb then plug it into the jrgb1

[nova steppe]

I have my motherboard manual on my phone, PC, and cloud, but that's because I referenced it a lot

[stone apex]

I found jrgb2, but it's 4 pin, and my case fans have 3 pin.

[jovial tide]

ooooo this looks spicy. Can't go too wrong with the price either for a wireless mouse

[snow rover]

pulsar is fine but pretty expensive compared to china brands

[quaint helm]

wait urs is argb then.... plug it into argb

[nova steppe]

All the answers should be in a manual

[quaint helm]

wait wtf pulsar have custom mouse option

[civic cloud]

It's hard to pull up a manual bro, just ask the people on some discord who also pull up said manual...it's like using chatgpt

[nova steppe]

I've never used that, so I don't get the comparison

[civic cloud]

no way you never used chatty (or similar)

[quaint helm]

no way u never used gemini

[muted mantle]

Don't take this as advice

I think some 3 pin headers work with 4+ pin ports but RTFM first

[nova steppe]

I've accidentally opened it twice on my phone, but never used it

[stone apex]

And I wouldn't take it, as it has 3 pins.
4(rd)th is blocked.

[muted mantle]

O alr

[lost fossil]

[nova steppe]

[lost fossil]

the simple rule is that it should plug in without having to force it, and if you have to force it, you're plugging the wrong cable or the wrong way or both

[civic cloud]

Everything works with enough force

[lost fossil]

like my coworker who fought a gpu power cable to plug it into his gpu upside down

[stone apex]

Wait, I used a pcie and connected it into 12vhpr, but I will have a 600w for the PSU. Or I don't need it?

[lost fossil]

the gpu won't draw 600w ur good

[quaint helm]

barely touching 400w too for 5060ti

[quaint helm]

5070 > 4090

[stone apex]

Where do I hide those nasty aio cables.

[thin turtle]

Under there

[lost fossil]

@stone apex

there are ways

i routed the cable around the block clockwise and ziptied it to one of the mounting brackets in a couple places

and the rest u can see

[stone apex]

🆒

[lost fossil]

yours could also be routed around the chipset heatsink (the square one) bc then it will be hidden below the gpu

it can be further hidden if you route it under that long m.2 ssd just below the block

and then around the chipset

[rapid lake]

You can plug it upside down?

[quaint helm]

by magic ig

[rapid lake]

I thought it fit in any direction long as it’s horizontal

[lost fossil]

[lost fossil]

how the turntables have

no

9060xt perhaps

[young garden]

i think it'll be better than my 3050 anyway right

[snow rover]

right

[lost fossil]

if ur budget if 900$ then it will be in your budget area

[snow rover]

the 9060-9070 thing is kinda confusing though

[stone apex]

Yes. HDMI.

Just that.

🥲

[young garden]

i might get it in a year or two i just got this laptop

[snow rover]

from the name you'd think the 9070 is slightly better but they're in completely different leagues

[lost fossil]

but that's the cable tho

[young garden]

i actually wanted to buy a 4070 setup but family insisted they didn't wanna see my pc tower

[lost fossil]

and then if you want bells and wheezetles, you buy a displayport cable separately

[young garden]

so for the price i'd get a nice pc i got a 3050 laptop

[snow rover]

[young garden]

yeah

soon though i will get a j*b and work towards buying myself one

for a home server, is it worth overspending on an amd 9950x compared to 7950x

been thinking about upgrading from xeon

[quaint helm]

why not big upgrade

[snow rover]

why do you need a cpu that fast

[quaint helm]

the faster the better

[lost fossil]

so that qbittorrent is not bottlenecked by my xeon's shitty ipc

and so that the place doesn't heat up as much

[snow rover]

but how is a torrent bottlenecked by the cpu

is a xeon really that slow

And so...

?

[snow rover]

insane stuff

[lost fossil]

you don't need the fan filter when your aio is set to exhaust like that

in fact, it is heavily recommended that you remove the fan filter

[nova steppe]

it's just extra noise

[stone apex]

Oh...
but then it will look ugly🫤

so quick question, which apps use lots of vram beside games

playing bf6 on ultra at 1440p actually does push me over 10gb

thank you nvidia

[quaint helm]

i hope OS counts as a app too

[civic cloud]

ram or vram

[quaint helm]

ram

o wait ure talking about vram

nvm im high

[quaint helm]

arent there a limit? i see a 'MAX and a red line' on vram usage

[civic cloud]

Yes and then the game tells you it's above the limit and that CPU usage might be higher

[proper sundial]

You'll see the fan at rest too, they're going to start only when you put load or play games, if they're using some % like 3 to 10 still they won't start which I really like

[stone apex]

I wish I could do this also with case fans.

Annoying.

[proper sundial]

Why not get the rpm remote controlled fan then

[stone apex]

How?

[proper sundial]

You have to get the fan which has a remote control in which you can control rpm and stop the fan

[stone apex]

🫤

I mean I can control those.

[proper sundial]

I've the remote controlled fan with argb and with rpm and light controller

[proper sundial]

Yea these but am talking about case fans here the one which do the air flow

[stone apex]

Ok?...

[proper sundial]

They are connected with different pin

They don't show here

[quaint helm]

hope the case fan have pwm else it gonna stick to the default speed

[stone apex]

yep it does.
but they're all connected to one channel.

[proper sundial]

That means they're synced which is good you can stop them all at once

[lost fossil]

i used so much, it should've secured a permanent spot at the top of my frequently used emotes, only behind maybe, and now outta nowhere i have to type its name to find it in the emote picker

[lost fossil]

buy a public ip from your isp

tha twould the easiest solution

[errant granite]

It already public.its not cgnat

So far for me only dmz configuration works but thats extremely vulnerable and risky

[wispy mesa]

enable upnp?

[errant granite]

Yes

Only enabling dmz configuration works but we know its not safe

[civic cloud]

Unbearable

[lost fossil]

[civic cloud]

Yes

[quaint helm]

unbeaverable

[toxic sentinel]

What about port forwarding?

[errant granite]

Not working

[toxic sentinel]

Then there isn't much else you can do I'm afraid

[errant granite]

We can.if upnp enabled then no use of port forwarding and dmz config works for me but its very vulnerable

[toxic sentinel]

Yeah uPnp is easiest fix

[errant granite]

And not just me many have this issue so if we can find a solution then many can fix

[errant granite]

Even that wasn’t working

I think getting a good router should be best fix but some isp dont allow that and thats what causes issue

[toxic sentinel]

Do your ISP give you moderate NAT?

Sometimes they just give strict

[errant granite]

I have no idea about that but i know one thing that its not cgnat

[toxic sentinel]

Do you have static ip for your PC in your internal network?

[errant granite]

Yes i tried that but that also works only with dmz and not even port forwarding

I guess its just software issue

Or there might be something really unknown and mysterious thing that we dont know about

[cold elbow]

The simplest and easiest fix is just use a vpn like windscribe and you will be good to go

[toxic sentinel]

https://support.rockstargames.com/articles/1AQFnU2Km6PPYPG6x2sY9g/how-to-resolve-errors-in-gta-online-about-strict-nat-type

[errant granite]

Well here is the mystery.i will try it but do u think that port issues can be fixed by just vpn

[cold elbow]

Vpn bypasses all that

Your issue is probably not even about ports but it's double NAT or CGNAT

Used to have that and there's no good fix for it other than vpn or ask your ISP to give you static ip or public ip for your own

[proper sundial]

Buddy it's just Indian ISP stuff you should ignore it we've plenty restrictions in our modem they don't give full access we either have to root the whole modem so I'd say just ignore it

[nova steppe]

@cold elbow Have you tried Proton (paid) before? I cancelled my Windscribe because I wanted to switch, but I wanted to know others' experience with it. The free version is too slow to get an accurate test

[proper sundial]

Vpn is temporary fix for us but the thing is it's just a warning not plenty much of problems during the session or stuff it's just we've to wait for joining the public session a little bit longer so I just ignore it

[cold elbow]

Windscribe is free for like 12GB

[proper sundial]

That's just Indian people problem though maybe neighbouring countries too

[errant granite]

[cold elbow]

Strict nat will always give you slow joining times.. random disconnect or straight up unable to connect to some sessions

[proper sundial]

there there

[proper sundial]

Yea, we can't really do much

[cold elbow]

Didn't try it because well mine was doing fine especially with split tunneling feature on for the game only

[lost fossil]

With CGNAT, end sites, in particular residential networks, are configured with private network addresses that are translated to public IPv4 addresses by middlebox network address translator devices embedded in the network operator's network, permitting the sharing of small pools of public addresses among many end users.

private address = strict nat

[errant granite]

Enabling Dmz config works great though and also if we use good routers

[nova steppe]

I was mostly having software issues, and i wanted the other bonuses from proton like the cloud storage and email addresses

[toxic sentinel]

Pakistan have similar situation with their ISP's

[nova steppe]

oh

||@echo mural ||

[errant granite]

[echo mural]

[nova steppe]

I switched to inclusive as opposed to exclusive, and that helped with the issues I was having, but when it's set to inclusive, it disables the Secure Hotspot feature. I use that with my vr headset

[proper sundial]

Yea

[errant granite]

For me it was working with dmz but its risky

[cold elbow]

Dmz is a big security risk

People will probably use your network to ddoss others lmao

[errant granite]

Also i get internet from 2 isps…the one with good router works great

[proper sundial]

Yes just ignore it I tried it didn't work so I just put it to default also I play in invite only

[echo mural]

You vpn it?

[lost fossil]

but then tbf gta itself is a big security risk so it probably won't be much worse, all things considered...

[proper sundial]

Jio and Airtel they don't give much perms

[cold elbow]

I always use vpn while playing gta

[errant granite]

I use act and airtel

[cold elbow]

Because your ip is exposed to half of the session

[proper sundial]

Maybe private small isp will give you full access and you can get it easily

[proper sundial]

Airtel doesn't I use it, but you can root that nokia modem anytime though

[errant granite]

They both are great isp

[proper sundial]

With restrictions though

[errant granite]

Airtel wont let u connect to ur own router

[cold elbow]

U can create a custom windscribe plan for like 2$

But free is enough if you setup split tunneling

[errant granite]

Yes if u connect to ur personal router then there wont be any problem for sure

Its not isp .its just their router sometimes

[proper sundial]

I usually just set it and forget it to a location, unless I'm having latency issues or torrenting

[quaint helm]

[rapid lake]

Is it worth paying for a vpn

Over just using a free one occasionally

[lost fossil]

it's ok to use a free one if it's windscribe

others i wouldn't be too sure about

[proper sundial]

Depends on the work you do, if just for surfing around never worth and if you need it for work and stuff then probably get one but they're also not so expensive you can get them for like $2/month

And there's like 100 options, just choose any one of them which has all good countries

[lost fossil]

you can also let cloudflare harvest your data by using cloudflare warp

[toxic sentinel]

@winter ore Depends what you're after. Most performance or as low cost as possible?

[winter ore]

the best and cheapest one

[toxic sentinel]

Probably Nvidia RTX4060

Intel Arc B580 gives more VRAM at less cost though

But Arc is little bit problematic as you need to have Resizable Bar support on your motherboard and decent enough CPU

I guess AMD RX 7600 is good as well, but that seems to be 8GB as well

Nvidia has DLSS which is currently best upscaler imo.

But if you're playing at 1080p then 8GB could be sufficient

8GB start to be little low on some new games though
