[rapid lake]

Do they break fast enough to justify paying 5x the price for a good one

[civic cloud]

The normal heating elements last about 5yrs, depending on usage

[split narwhal]

@thin turtle why is the heatsync not on the cpu if the heatsync is made to cool the cpu

[thin turtle]

because I will steal your RAM

[split narwhal]

NO

I will steal your ovo

[thin turtle]

[split narwhal]

I will steal 67 of your rams

[lost fossil]

sync is not the same as sink

let that sync in

[thin turtle]

can deez sync

[split narwhal]

[rapid lake]

Is that an actual question

[lost fossil]

is he talking about liquid coolers?

that just occured to me

[quaint helm]

i feel like = sora shutting down > openai dk what to do next > jensen stop investing in them > more memory for consumer > price decrease

[uneven reef]

.

[split narwhal]

Ofc not

[rapid lake]

I don’t think so

[gaunt topaz]

sora shutting down -> bla bla big news and then they just integrate it into ChatGPT or some overlapping platform and actually try to monetise it instead of lose money with every request

the weird "platform" they had is shutting down, the tech still lives on and so does the ridiculous hardware demand

[lilac heath]

If 4070ti is the recommended gpu for 4K 60fps then i think FH6 will have decent optimization

cant wait for the amount of ai slop in that game

Prices wont go down

@wary pawn what was the problem

[wary pawn]

Solved. Well, it was a dumb situation.

Had an old iPhone 7. Got rid of it. Buyer contacted to tell you can’t install WhatsApp on it. Didn’t remember their old icloud pass. Now they reset it or remembered. Now, they could.

Whatsapp on app store says it is 15.1+, but didn’t let it installed on 15.8.4

[snow rover]

who is buying an iphone 7 in 2026

[rapid lake]

@quartz kayak

[rapid lake]

Someone that wants to buy their kid a phone

[snow rover]

no

[wary pawn]

To let their kid play for some time or shit. Idc. I sold it.

[rapid lake]

It wouldn’t sell here though rn

Like even for $20

Because the X is like $50 and there’s so many of them, you can probably negotiate it down to 30

Especially if cooked battery

[wary pawn]

Sold it for ~$51.

[rapid lake]

Scammer

[wary pawn]

Everything went shit here.

[wary pawn]

Clean ones are on the list for near double price.

Mine was jet black. Some places lost paint. But everything was working, just a changed Chinese battery.

Buyer got it to let their kid own an Apple instead of their old Huawei or something.

[snow fiber]

Holy cow

Who is buying for that price

[rapid lake]

That’s wild

How much is an iphone X

Cheapest one

[wary pawn]

Lemme check.

[wary pawn]

There are some with different troubles. The random one without any trouble (according to seller) is for ~$117, 64GB variant.

[rapid lake]

That’s actually insane Turkey is screwed

I thought our prices were bad

Anyone heard of Contabo VPS?

I’m looking at this plan for hosting a fabric MC server with the geysermc mod for bedrock crossplay

We’re only like 10 people and not looking to run any mods of course, but the current server is skipping ticks and having some network lag (mostly the former)

I think this is using an AMD EPYC 7282

Currently using an ARM Neoverse N1

[civic cloud]

Nope

is that usd?

[lost fossil]

it never works in this direction

what it means is that they'll use 6x as many GPUs now

[rapid lake]

Yes

It’s the cheapest vps out there

https://contabo.com/en/vps/

Honestly even this is really good value

Don’t need much ram for Minecraft

And core count doesn’t matter

[wispy mesa]

How many mods?

Contabo is fine

You just need to make sure the vps has a good clock speed cpu

[quaint helm]

1 screenshot 📸

[rapid lake]

As I said

They most likely use an AMD EPYC 7282

I think it boosts up to 3.2 GHz

[quartz kayak]

Its da best

GUYS A USED EMBODY FOR 500

LETS FUCKING GO

[quartz kayak]

No im taking extra good care of it

i bought this cleaning kit that was recomended on reddit. its still brand new

the banding isnt bad

like on discord i cant see it and its all gray

ngl dream monitor. but shit it was so expensive for a monitor

[rapid lake]

?

[quartz kayak]

embody costs 2k

this ones semi new for 500

used embodies go for like 1k

[rapid lake]

What is that

[quartz kayak]

https://www.hermanmiller.com/en_lac/products/seating/office-chairs/embody-chairs/

[rapid lake]

500 monitor is expensive

But a chair for 500 is ok

[quartz kayak]

600

yes

crazy right

[rapid lake]

Ok

Go buy then

[quartz kayak]

the mind of a consumer

[rapid lake]

Or you gonna keep pussying out of it until it gets sold like last time

[quartz kayak]

i dont even have 500 on my bank atm

[rapid lake]

💀

Broke asl

[quartz kayak]

i have like 2k on my savings but its gonna take a bit to take it out

i asked my mom to send me 50 and i ll give back later

i also payed for uber eats 2 times last week

so

[rapid lake]

GPU > chair

[quartz kayak]

i can buy both twin

[rapid lake]

But you won’t

[quartz kayak]

but the chair is more important atp

[quartz kayak]

i will just not now

im gonna wait until like day 10

[rapid lake]

How about

[quartz kayak]

of next month

[rapid lake]

Save up and buy a new HM

[quartz kayak]

no way

its a scam

its like buying a new car

[rapid lake]

Yes all these chairs are a scam but you and Gauss love them

[quartz kayak]

they are only 1k+ because of the massive warranty

thats it

[rapid lake]

You’re gonna have back pain by 30 anyways

[quartz kayak]

so buying second hand for like 1k wouldnt make expensive

[rapid lake]

Then you’ll use a wooden chair like Mikko

[rapid lake]

It’s a chair after all

[quartz kayak]

my mom told me to get 2 bricks

to sit down

[rapid lake]

There’s not much to it

So you’re not paying for actual tech and innovation

[rapid lake]

That’s why I justify buying a GPU or something more

[quartz kayak]

this chair is literally endgame

and i ll prolly have it for years and years

[rapid lake]

Good for you bro

U and gauss

[quartz kayak]

yes.

[rapid lake]

[quartz kayak]

No?

@cold elbow embody for 599

WAKE UP

[rapid lake]

Your setup is really not proportional

You gotta balance

[quartz kayak]

its getting there

im telling you

my current chair is a gaming chair that costed 200 euro

[rapid lake]

When are you getting paid

[cold elbow]

Great deal

[quartz kayak]

and the fake leather is all flaked

[rapid lake]

Could’ve gotten a mesh office chair for that much

[quartz kayak]

it has like 7 years under my bum

[rapid lake]

Never breaks

[quartz kayak]

im getting payed day 6 suposedly

[rapid lake]

Who looks at a gaming chair shape and says "ah yes this is comfortable"

[quartz kayak]

look

8 year ago me is very different from current me

[cold elbow]

What is had yapping about

[rapid lake]

And then they sit like this

[quartz kayak]

he says that i should buy a 9070xt NOW

instead of investing on anything else

which i get its normal

[cold elbow]

If u have no gpu yeah

[quartz kayak]

since i have an expensive monitor and im not using it to its full potential

[rapid lake]

No?

[quartz kayak]

i do i have a 2060

[cold elbow]

Then

[rapid lake]

That GPU is too good for ur shitass cpu

[cold elbow]

U might or mignt not have stuff with higher priority

[quartz kayak]

i think the chair is a priority for now

[cold elbow]

It's a priority if you dont have a chair

[rapid lake]

Does your mom approve

Or did she give up on ur ass after you bought the monitor

[quartz kayak]

my mom wants a new chair too

my current chair is like

done

im not exagerating

the base has been replaced already

and soldered once

by me

the old one was

[rapid lake]

How does one even break a $200 chair

Smh at this

Broke your bed, and your chair

It’s all starting to make sense

[quartz kayak]

LOOK

[cold elbow]

My chair was 100$ and has 10 years warranty

[quartz kayak]

SHUIT UP

i wish

this chair had like 3 years

amazon only offers 3

staples offers 5 i think

[quartz kayak]

investing in a good chair makes sense

[thin turtle]

buy a chair from carpenter

[quartz kayak]

whats carpenter

is it like a brand

[thin turtle]

sabrina

[thin turtle]

woodsmith

or something

[quartz kayak]

No?

[rapid lake]

That’s you

[quartz kayak]

No?

[thin turtle]

you look like this

[quartz kayak]

No?

[thin turtle]

yes

[rapid lake]

Actually no he’s right

He’s much heavier than that

To break a chair and a bed

[quartz kayak]

isnt sabrina carpenter a singer

[rapid lake]

[thin turtle]

yeah

[rapid lake]

This guy

[thin turtle]

she works with wood

[quartz kayak]

im pretty sure everyone here is heavier than the morbidly obese monkey

i think

he looks like hes melting

[rapid lake]

Not melon that’s for sure

[quartz kayak]

atleast hes eating lettuce

[raven granite]

hello chat I have a question. for like £800 is this an alright purchase

I’d prolly have to upgrade the cpu maybe

[rapid lake]

13500 14 core?

[thin turtle]

they inventing new cpus now

[rapid lake]

Interesting

[thin turtle]

6p and 8e

[rapid lake]

It’s an actual cpu lmao

[thin turtle]

how many cores is yours

[rapid lake]

That’s a really suspicious price

[thin turtle]

wait

14 cores

[raven granite]

that’s what I’m thinking

it should be more right

like alot more

[thin turtle]

or 14 threads

[rapid lake]

I don’t buy it

[thin turtle]

[raven granite]

but like

[rapid lake]

Pun unintentionally intended

[raven granite]

its collection

[thin turtle]

14 cores is 20 threads right?

[raven granite]

so I’d go pick it up and I can check it and stuff

[thin turtle]

just like 14600

nice

[rapid lake]

Mine?

[thin turtle]

yes

[rapid lake]

Yeah that one is

[thin turtle]

was it 10?

[rapid lake]

Mine is 10-core

[thin turtle]

noob

[rapid lake]

6P 4E

[thin turtle]

get real

[raven granite]

so like if ts is real issa good deal basically

[rapid lake]

New this is like

[thin turtle]

24MB

smaller than weakest AMD

[rapid lake]

$1400 at least

Probably more

[fickle finch]

Did you over clock your cpu

[raven granite]

nvm I’m pretty sure this guy scamming

[thin turtle]

no

it's stock

[raven granite]

he’s got other sales on his fb marketplace and they’re all diff locations

[fickle finch]

What is the temp like

[thin turtle]

normal

[fickle finch]

As?

[thin turtle]

I dunno been a while since I checked

but I think it's in the 60s

[fickle finch]

60 base temp?

[thin turtle]

no

full load

high 60s I'd say

[fickle finch]

Full load?

[thin turtle]

yes

[rapid lake]

That’s cap

[thin turtle]

I'll benchmark for you

[quaint helm]

u have 5080

[rapid lake]

Gaming is not full load

[thin turtle]

I do cinebench

cin

something

[quaint helm]

run r23 multi once

cinebench

[fickle finch]

What is cinebench

[thin turtle]

ok

[quaint helm]

an app to torture ur cpu

[fickle finch]

Stress test?

[quaint helm]

yeap

[fickle finch]

I undervolted my cpu

[thin turtle]

why R23 tho

[thin turtle]

anything but buying a $10 cooler

[fickle finch]

This country has no good cooler

[thin turtle]

😭

[fickle finch]

[civic cloud]

omg grab it sis

[quaint helm]

sis

[quartz kayak]

im saying

its also semi new

its so sexy

[thin turtle]

expanded and enhanced

[quartz kayak]

the owner said he sat down a couple of times and cant return it

[civic cloud]

How semi new are we talking

[quartz kayak]

bcs its out the return window

[civic cloud]

Why is he trying to return it

very silly

[quartz kayak]

he said he doesnt like it

[quaint helm]

now upscale

[civic cloud]

lol

He should have decided that within the return window, damn

[quartz kayak]

yeah

well he probably has money since hes selling it for so low aswell

i asked for a reciept

see if i can get warranty priority even though im not the original buyer

if not idc tho the price is really good anyways

[civic cloud]

You should

I hope you can grab it :3

The haters (hadi) don't understand

[quartz kayak]

tre

[thin turtle]

@quaint helm@fickle finch@rapid lake
cinebench R23 multicore 10mins

I think it stopped at 300, the rest of the time I was afk

looks like the max is 87

average in the 70s

stock cooler settings

average 71

[quartz kayak]

the seller took down the listing out of nowhere

ig its gg for the chair

[civic cloud]

HAVE YOU NOT MESSAGED HIM

SOMEONE WAS FASTER THAN U

[quaint helm]

hotboi

[thin turtle]

[cold elbow]

I have similar chart

[quaint helm]

ars

[thin turtle]

you're so funny you should become a discord mod

[rapid lake]

Ok but are the memory prices dropping

[snow fiber]

Openai is also losing money

[snow fiber]

Won't happen soon

[quartz kayak]

i have

and all i told him to do was to reservate the ad since i was paying

my card is trash and i gotta transfer money to my revolut before paying anything above 150 euro its disgusting

he recieved the message and instantly put the listing down tho

he didnt even open the chat

[civic cloud]

No lol

[quartz kayak]

like putting the listing down on wallapop doesnt mean someone bought it, when someone buys the listing appears as reserved and then bought for 2 days while the seller sends the package for shipping or they meet

so he just took it down idk why

[civic cloud]

1. Broke ass bitch
2. He probably got like 50 messages and deleted it to have his peace while he messages the first 3 guys

[quartz kayak]

heres hoping that he saw the message and just took the listing down instead of reserving it for me and hes saving the chair but its very unlikely

[quartz kayak]

the thing is that it didnt have that many people on it either

out of like 150 there was 17 likes

me included

so idk

[civic cloud]

ok that's 16 people who messaged him before you

[quartz kayak]

it could also just be clickbait or something people online are weird asf

[civic cloud]

Also possible yeah

or a scam

[quartz kayak]

yeah or that

[civic cloud]

Better luck next time bbg

[quartz kayak]

it was a good enough deal to be a scam tbf

[snow fiber]

No chair for you

[quartz kayak]

its so annoying it was fully black too

[civic cloud]

You love the black ones, huh

I hate flexing but I have 8 GB of DDR5

[snow fiber]

My ddr5 stick price went by 4-5 times

[snow fiber]

Don't say it outloud , people will raid your house

[quartz kayak]

from 1k to 2k tho

[quaint helm]

is there massage feature in that god dam overprice chair

[quartz kayak]

this is somehow a good price

and if its an official retailer may actually be worth looking at because of the warranty

but still 1k is so much ngl

here we have an online store called offeco and they have been offering me chairs

they said the leap v2 was a good one

tbh i know alot of them i ve been searching

i know the gesture, the fern from haworth

i really like the gesture but they are rare with the config i want sadly

and they are all hot

im in portugal i wanted something mesh

so i started looking into mirra 2s.

Nah

a mirra 2 is like my bottom line atp

400 on offeco

and comes with a 5 year warranty

like

its a really good deal

and they have alot of configs too

[quaint helm]

offeco

[quartz kayak]

i also saw a sayl

gaming sayl

but idk how that will be for my size

it looks small in photos

idk

ohh i also saw a karman

ahnestly said the karman was the best mesh

[thin turtle]

[quartz kayak]

but it was like 500 used with no warranty

crazy

@civic cloud look at this nice ass steelcase i found

only thing i would change would be the color of the cloths

its so nice

from 2025

but

750 and probably no warranty

[quaint helm]

is that mx master 3s?

[quartz kayak]

i like grey better

i like black and grey

[quaint helm]

wait thats the apple keyboard

hrey

hey

hay

[quartz kayak]

i like it the other way around

like the plastics and metals black

and the seat and back gray

[quaint helm]

negative ergonomi

[quartz kayak]

idk why just looks better

[snow fiber]

Chairs are damn expensive

[cold elbow]

Not if you look in the right spot

[storm yew]

i just like chairs that go 180

[thin turtle]

my chair goes 360 bro

get real

[void turret]

My chair goes 360 too, but I need to lift it

[rapid lake]

I know it’ll be a while before they would actually start making consumer RAM again but part of the price hikes is just panic and not just lack of supply

[rapid lake]

😭

Bro is the devil

[quartz kayak]

Mogged bros chair

It doesnt matter both of them are over 500

[rapid lake]

Actually I’m gonna need chair buying advice

But i definitely won’t be getting a HM or any luxury brand

Yeah we have one of those at work

It’s nice but I don’t like that there’s no headrest

I can’t rest my head while working? Smh

[rapid lake]

A simple headrest like this does wonders

Although that angle looks uncomfortable

[quartz kayak]

the whole chair just looks hot

its like that thick wool cloth yk

imagine beeing sat on that for 3 hours

[rapid lake]

I can’t tell from the pic but I trust you

Looks like ts was made in fusion

[thin turtle]

[quartz kayak]

although the embody is also hot

its much more open too

[rapid lake]

This is a very niche type of setup and I love it

Though after using a big mousepad for a while I think a small one just for… well the mouse is better

[thin turtle]

he loves it

[rapid lake]

Ts looks so ass

I wouldn’t sit on that

I’m serious

Wtf is that shape

[quartz kayak]

the shape is made to slouch

best shape

you can let the boys hang

freely

you can cross your legs

its the best

yes

[rapid lake]

I already have some scoliosis and kyphosis

Ion need more motivation to slouch

[quartz kayak]

yeah but what chair was made for that

none

[quartz kayak]

had is an aeron type guy

[thin turtle]

I love it when you get scoliosis

[rapid lake]

Fits the description

What for

Were you shitposting

This highkey looks nice

Imagine sitting with your stomach supported

And leaned forwards

Stereotyping

That’s good

If you want scoliosis also

It’s scoliosis, but instead of being on the ZY axix it’s on the ZX axis

Basically curving of your spine but forwards

Unnaturally

No your spine is not on a plane

It’s in your back

wdym mute

he's banned

[quaint helm]

rip goose

[rapid lake]

Anyways

Chairs

[thin turtle]

no

let me mourn

[rapid lake]

He’s just muted bruh

Now let me see if the VPS site will accept my card

So we can get a new server going

[thin turtle]

first time seeing a mute with message purge

scary

@rapid lake help me develope a water capturing system

from the air

then we sell the patent to someone

instant money

[rapid lake]

Someone’s probably done that and patented it and the patent expired already

[thin turtle]

let's patent again

[rapid lake]

Or the idea is fundamentally not gonna work

Ion have experience with this stuff

[thin turtle]

you'll learn along the way

[rapid lake]

Ngl making a useless idea but marketing it as something big and selling the patent sounds good

But I’m not a scammer like you

[thin turtle]

[thin turtle]

this rusty mindset of yours needs studying

bro is 19 and thinks like a boomer

you don't need to make a leap

my friend has one

he kept it depsite selling his desk

[civic cloud]

its not like fish has actually tested one

[quaint helm]

send him back

[rapid lake]

Is his desk HM too

[civic cloud]

no? theres very little reason to spend lots of money on a desk

[rapid lake]

Yeah you’re all just hype chasers

[civic cloud]

reading german reddit about the HM chairs lowkey put me off

they mentioned big Spaltmaße which is a huge turn off

[rapid lake]

Panel gap

What does that mean

[civic cloud]

the gap between two joined materials

[rapid lake]

Joined as in

[civic cloud]

mechanically attached

[rapid lake]

Why would there be a gap

Ah

[civic cloud]

you dont want a gap

[rapid lake]

Oh you mean like

[civic cloud]

and if a product has a gap or an uneven gap it looks cheap

[rapid lake]

The back rest portion

That the fabric of the chair or whatever they use sits on

[civic cloud]

like this

i know thats not a chair

[rapid lake]

I see

So which gap are we talking about in this context

[quaint helm]

hairline gap

[civic cloud]

idk the comment just said they suck

[quaint helm]

why...

[rapid lake]

Not even NVME

[nova steppe]

It's an 870

[civic cloud]

what does that mean

they could have marketed it as a mobile drive

for cameras and laptops n shit

external drive*

[rapid lake]

Is there an 8tb nvme

[quaint helm]

9100 pro have 8tb

lets not talk about the price

[quartz kayak]

Gauss byying a car?

[rapid lake]

That seems reasonable

[quartz kayak]

4tb 800 is pretty steep

Thats a worst buy than an herman miller chair

Lol

I remember i bought my 1tb ssd for 60 bucks back in my internship

[quaint helm]

2mb per core???????????

[civic cloud]

no

[quartz kayak]

Why

[quaint helm]

buying a cat?

[glacial viper]

IM sooo sad i never got it before th eprice increases, same with 64gb of ram, i have 32 which is fine but still breaks my heart

i

i really hope i can get a better job so it would be my throw away money

[quaint helm]

nah u dont need 9100 👏

[lost fossil]

should pair it with an i3-9100

[tame current]

Everyone knows that the child safety excuse they use is a big fat lie. They just won't admit that it's never about child safety
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MSsNshqC2k

[civic cloud]

It's always about "child safety"

The easiest thing for child safety everyone can do is to not buy them a phone when they are 6

[tame current]

They argue that it's for child safety because it's easy to ad-hom anyone who argues against this and who oppose age checks

[rapid lake]

Yo @thin turtle

How much is a tray 13400f in oman

I’m trynna see how much I could get for my PC

Somehow I got mine for $110 a year ago and this guy’s selling a 12400f used for $135

I think he’s dumb or something

My cpu is $160 new now, did CPUs get more expensive too wtf?

The good old days

Anyways with current prices, I think this should be worth at least $600 used

I calculated the prices as follows:
GPU: $150
CPU: $100
RAM: $180
NVME SSD: $90
Motherboard: $30
PSU: $30
CPU cooler: $15

Total is $595 rounded up to $600

[fresh heron]

hope it launches in aus

[rapid lake]

Haven’t seen you in a while

[fresh heron]

ye been busy with life

[fresh heron]

wsg

[void turret]

This reminds me about the forbidden online

[fresh heron]

100W fast charging and 50W wireless

[rapid lake]

How wireless is it

Do you just set the phone on the thing or does it need to go on in a certain way

[fresh heron]

pretty sure its Qi2

like magsafe type shit

only downsides to this phone are:

1. LTPS Panel
2. USB 2.0
3. No ultrawide lens

[fresh heron]

nvm its like the oneplus 15

[quaint helm]

mmmm i wonder what is it for the big gap item

[compact sierra]

Can a laptop battery 🔋 be repaired?

[quaint helm]

this dude is back with his crap questions

[rapid lake]

@cold elbow

Clean?

"Strawberry" linear switches

https://youtube.com/shorts/nrITtOTUJXU?si=TGTDfOB9lX_Fle_y

[cold elbow]

No.

But it looks nice

And volume wheel

[nova steppe]

2.0 wtf, no way

[rapid lake]

Not clean?

Or not worth

[civic cloud]

Both

[fresh heron]

yeah sadly

it starts at $600 too

i feel like thats really lacking for 600

atleast its got a 16 256 option for like $680

ig having a LTPS panel doesn't matter if the battery is 7500mah

[quaint helm]

melon bigger hater

[civic cloud]

She might be a hater but she's certainly not big

[thin turtle]

the prices have increased nowadays

idk how much

[thin turtle]

[civic cloud]

[thin turtle]

[civic cloud]

i can already call him names now, what difference does it make

[quaint helm]

but the whole thing looks like plastic from 20+years ago the color start to turn brown

[thin turtle]

no one really likes being called names

[lost fossil]

[thin turtle]

[quaint helm]

[lost fossil]

no tech coding meth discussion in sight

[civic cloud]

we touched upon lagrange

which is meth related

[void turret]

we need to cook

[quaint helm]

who we cooking

[compact sierra]

how do you fix a laptop that won't charge or turn on?

[snow rover]

well does the power supply ("charger") work?

[compact sierra]

when i plugged it in last time it worked

[snow rover]

that does not answer the question

[compact sierra]

it doesn't show the charge light on the laptop itself when the charger is plugged in

[snow fiber]

Does anyone here uses nvim

[snow fiber]

[lost fossil]

non volatile instance manager? (i just made that up)

[snow fiber]

non viable interface manager ( i made that up as well)

[rapid lake]

Yeah probably

Found a wifi 7 router for $40

Also saw this weird ass PC case

The specs

I didn’t even realize you can see the individual LEDs in the fan

[vagrant crown]

What a beast

[vagrant crown]

Looks like a coffee machine

[lost fossil]

spyware comes bundled for free

[cold elbow]

i thought that this is a blender

[void turret]

Make the top fan to be an intake fan and you have a blender, maybe

[rapid lake]

sike

i wouldn't use their firmware

[nova steppe]

Okay, what about their software

[snow fiber]

I was going to recommend installing openwrt but looks like it's not supported

[snow fiber]

"3d" gaming case

What kind of pc case is 2d

[nova steppe]

All of them if you ignore one axis

[civic cloud]

So you could rock a 5S and nobody would really know

[rapid lake]

Gets noticeably worse at the 6S

[quaint helm]

bcus its s

[civic cloud]

@rapid lake have you sold your PC yet

[rapid lake]

You think people are buying PCs these days?

I haven’t even put it up for sale yet, I don’t know if it still works even after transporting it

[snow rover]

they'll buy anything if it's cheap enough

[rapid lake]

I dunno how much to list it for yet

[civic cloud]

High demand if everything got bombed

[rapid lake]

I don’t really care if it takes a long time to sell

[rapid lake]

We’re not in gaza

[wary pawn]

If they are making a killing

[rapid lake]

Yet

It’s used less than a year

How much of its original value should it retain

[thin turtle]

that don't matter

used is used

[rapid lake]

No?

Anyways just answer the question

60%? 70%?

6 or 7

[snow rover]

7

[rapid lake]

70% of its price if it was new

Kingston 1tb NV3: $180+tax
2x8 3200mhz cl16 kingston fury DDR4 RAM: $200
MSI H610M-s DDR4 motherboard: $70
Chinese RGB case: $40
intel i5 13400f CPU: $160
Chinese RGBcooler: $25
MSI 600W PSU: $40
Used Galax RTX 3060 12gig: Found one on marketplace for $220, let’s call it $200

Total comes out to $934, 70% of that is $654

+$46 because it’s RGB and I sell it for $700

I also have a 500gig kingston sata SSD but I’d rather keep that alongside the 2tb HDD

@snow rover what do u think

[vagrant crown]

I’ll give you a fiver if you bring it to me

[snow rover]

nv3 $180

[civic cloud]

Nobody will buy a PC without drive

[snow rover]

16 gigs of ddr4 is not worth 200 used, more like 80

which is still stupid but not that stupid

i think 3060 pc will be a tuff sell at 650 but idk your market

[twin badger]

Yeah, idk where he found it for 200

thats DDR5 territory

550-600 flat for that PC, that SSD is shite

and motherboard is bottom of the barrel

[rapid lake]

Did u even read

It has a 1tb kingdton nv3 nvme

[rapid lake]

That’s the price new

[rapid lake]

That’s how much it’s selling for here

Anyways it look like this is selling for around $500-600

I don’t know whether to sell the monitors with it

Especially since the 27 inch (MSI OPTIX MAG271C) doesn’t have its stand anymore so you’d need a monitor arm

It was $350 new which is kinda sad

@civic cloud What do you think

Sell the whole setup and start fresh?

[quaint helm]

start fresh if u dont mind about budget

[dreamy kraken]

is cool?

[quaint helm]

if and only if the gpu is noctua too

[dreamy kraken]

9070xt nitro

[quaint helm]

get 5080 x hawktua

[dreamy kraken]

[rapid lake]

I don’t have unlimited money and I have to set up a whole new room later but I don’t wanna cheap out like last time

I would rather wait and get the good stuff

[quaint helm]

yeah

start fresh frfr

[vagrant crown]

Easy solution to your problem, get unlimited money

[rapid lake]

🤝

[quaint helm]

erm......

[thin turtle]

@civic cloud I will gift you this

[vagrant crown]

I’ve never sent something to a war zone before though so no idea how long it usually takes

[vagrant crown]

Can you guess the name Reddit gave it?

[quaint helm]

hands ?

wait no....maybe that thing

[vagrant crown]

Yeah sure someone in the comments just said “hands”

Have you ever been on Reddit

[quaint helm]

just for clash of clans stuff

[vagrant crown]

Sweet summer child

[quaint helm]

lemme guess goon machine?

[vagrant crown]

A touch more sophistication

[quaint helm]

no idea

[thin turtle]

no one cares about reddit

[vagrant crown]

If it wasn’t for Reddit you wouldn’t have been born

[civic cloud]

No

[civic cloud]

Why would you sell your monitors? That's dumb as fuck

Sell them once you have a new one

[void turret]

Cool? Yeah probably good temps as cool but ugly fans

[dreamy kraken]

Noctua black fans look nice?

[quaint helm]

black best

but its rare ig

[dreamy kraken]

[quaint helm]

few bucks more expensive than the normal one i think

[rapid lake]

Are you ragebaiting rnv

Why would I need the monitors if I don’t have a PC

[nova steppe]

Phone gamer

[nova steppe]

I would...

[civic cloud]

That will raise your initial investment for a new setup way more

I'd at least keep SOMETHING to display an image that isn't your phone

[quaint helm]

wtf

[nova steppe]

Haven't heard of Rosewill since I built my second PC

[wary pawn]

@rapid lake Sold an iPhone 11 256 Red for $146, with 59% battery health.

[quaint helm]

not 69%

[civic cloud]

[rapid lake]

I want better monitors too

My main monitor is 300 nits max brightness

[civic cloud]

That's quite normal

[rapid lake]

And one of the monitors is WHITE

[civic cloud]

ok and? Are you racist?

[rapid lake]

Yes

[civic cloud]

wth

Mods ban his ass

[rapid lake]

They scammed me

The picture showed a black monitor

[civic cloud]

Anyway, what's your plan here? Sell your pc and monitor and have nothing?

[rapid lake]

Yeah

Then get everything new

What are you not understanding here

[wary pawn]

Grab it and sell here. Probably can make $20-$50 profit.

[civic cloud]

What's your plan for the time between selling everything and getting the new stuff? Knowing you, the new stuff will arrive in one or two years

[rapid lake]

Fym

I can’t use my PC atm

And I have no house

And I don’t need a PC

[civic cloud]

Pulling out the "my house got bombed" card ok alright

do you plan on living on the street or what? You will be in a new apartment eventually

[rapid lake]

You pulled it not me

[rapid lake]

Yeah and I don’t need to have a PC immediately

[civic cloud]

How will you study?

[rapid lake]

Like, tf? Can you not live without a PC

[civic cloud]

Solidworks doesn't run on air

[rapid lake]

I have my laptop my guy

How am I studying rn?

The PC is for gaming

[civic cloud]

No?

[rapid lake]

That’s the whole reason I got it

[civic cloud]

bruh sell the fucking laptop instead

[rapid lake]

The doctor was right

You’re [insert redacted german word]

[civic cloud]

Stubenhocker literally just means a person sitting inside all day

[rapid lake]

And how do I study then?
