[echo mural]

for some reason my obs video quality is garbage

but basically this

[brave field]

hm

that looks almost like the spike in CPU_Time a few other people had

not real performance issues, just the game deciding to randomly destroy itself for about half a second

[echo mural]

lol

then it does that way too often

[arctic yarrow]

Hmm, do you happen to have the game running on a HDD?

Or SSD?

[echo mural]

hdd

i don't have enough space to put the game on ssd

the game is on an external hdd, i could move the game to internal hdd but i dont think it makes a big difference does it? @arctic yarrow

[arctic yarrow]

I've not played any CoD titles in a while, but I know in some modern games, especially open world titles, I experience frame drops like you experience on a HDD, but not on a SSD.

[main cipher]

ssd is better

[arctic yarrow]

Are you able to move some data from your SSD to your HDD, then install it on your SSD temporarily?

[arctic yarrow]

Yup, and water is wet.

Anyway, that might help you figure out if the problem is with an IO read bottleneck, or another component.

[echo mural]

no it's literally a 128gb ssd lol @arctic yarrow

best i can do is move it to the other hdd that has slightly better write and read speeds

[arctic yarrow]

Yeah, that could help alleviate some of your issues if it is an IO problem. If that does minimize the problem, I would look at obtaining another SSD to put games on.

[echo mural]

are external ssd's good

[arctic yarrow]

500gb SSDs go for around 50 USD currently.

Steam doesn't like external SSDs for some reason when installing games, but they run fine after they're installed.

[brave field]

The last few people with this issue have had it fixed when they upgraded from 4c8t to 6c12t, even though usage isn't nearing 100%, so I'm guessing it really is something related to how the game handles or doesn't handle HT/SMT

[arctic yarrow]

Problem is, his motherboard doesn't support more than 4c/8t

[brave field]

yeah, and with the value Intel CPUs keep on the used market, even if there was, it would cost more than new mobo + new CPU, sadly

[arctic yarrow]

I forgot, does 6th gen intel use DDR3 or DDR4?

[brave field]

6th gen is made for DDR4 but it accepts and can use DDR3L with certain boards

normal DDR3 is bad for the IMC

[arctic yarrow]

OK, then getting a b550 board with a midrange 3rd gen ryzen might be a good budget option.

The only reason why I recommend b550 if you're looking at an upgrade is due to AMD making their CPUs backwards compatible for as long as possible (Unless you're using ASUS)

That way, you have a path to upgrade in the future.

[brave field]

I'd try to hold out for as long as possible

AM4 is about to be replaced and so will LGA1200

9 months is a pretty long wait, but regardless of which you choose your upgrade options will be limited

[arctic yarrow]

Gotcha, AMD hit their limit on AM4?

[brave field]

Ryzen 5000 is it for AM4

[arctic yarrow]

RIP

[brave field]

unless something goes wrong and they make a Ryzen 5000+/6000 but that would just be a refresh, not a new arch

[arctic yarrow]

Makes sense tho. They've been running the same socket for 4+ years now.

[echo mural]

cya in 10 years

[arctic yarrow]

Oh Lawd, only $85 away from my goal, then I'm gonna liquidate 1/4th of my profit from my crypto portfolio and start actively trading with it.

Made $4000 over the past 1 1/2 months.

Just by buying and holding.

[arctic yarrow]

[plucky raft]

I ordered a fan for my case 🎉

[echo mural]

well the transfer went flawless so thats good, gonna try playing when shaders finish @arctic yarrow

[echo mural]

with rgb?

[plucky raft]

No

Cheapest fan with good reviews

[echo mural]

as long as it works

[arctic yarrow]

I don't expect the drops to be eliminated, but if it is an IO bottleneck you should see a reduction.

[jovial tide]

which one

my budget fan reccomendation is always arctic p12/p14 lol

[echo mural]

okay here's a fun one, it seems the frame drops are caused by discord, without discord running i hardly get drops @arctic yarrow @brave field

[brave field]

ah

disable hardware acceleration in Discord's settings

same for your web browser

if its off, enable it, then

[echo mural]

its off on discord

and on in chrome

should i just try with it dsiabled in disc and chrome

[brave field]

turn it on in discord then

whatever its at, do the other

[echo mural]

okay

[brave field]

ignore the web browser for now, set it and test performance

[echo mural]

okay

with acceleration on on disc it feels less frequent/worse drops , but overall performance feels worser

[brave field]

ah

Discord/Chrome/Firefox hardware acceleration mainly changes what is used to render the program, embedded videos, and gifs, on being GPU and off being CPU

I guess mess around with whichever is most comfortable

Do you have the Discord Overlay enabled? That hurts performance quite a bit too, even if you don't use the hotkey to open it

[arctic yarrow]

There we go. Looks like I was off the mark with Disk IO. Then again, I mainly have experience with open world titles.

[plucky raft]

Haha that's what i ordered
The p12

[grim quest]

Ay for you crypto nerds

ALPHA/BTC pair is about to go up.

it's low rn. so if you wanna check it out go for it.

[brave field]

ALPHA... haven't heard of it, sounds risky

[grim quest]

Eh well i have bots that tell me otherwise

thought i'd hit this place up with the info 😉

I just dropped $200 in it

[brave field]

I like risk

thanks for the heads up

[grim quest]

Some smaller auto trades

Cba for usdt rn. BTC is gonna hit 60k again soon so other coins are gonna go up a bit

[arctic yarrow]

BTC is going up?

Probably a good idea to jump into it then

[arctic yarrow]

I'm mostly in ETH atm

I was waiting on it to hit 4k, then liquidate 1k to drop into other coins.

[grim quest]

Same but my bots just cashed out traded into BTC for its ALPHA pair

So they can maximise profits

[arctic yarrow]

ETH did make some really tasty gains today.

[grim quest]

Yeah gotta love ETH always coming in clutch when i sleep

[arctic yarrow]

Jesus fuck, I hate printers.

"Printer, please print this black-and-white document."
"FUCK YOU. FEED ME MAGENTA!"

Then after you replace the damn cartridge it still refuses to print because of "unknown error"

[brave field]

a fellow printer hater

finally

I don't know if "Unknown Error" or "Something Went Wrong" is more infuriating

[arctic yarrow]

IKR, tell me WTF went wrong and I'll fix it. Don't leave me guessing.

At least an error code would give me something.

I'm kicking myself a little for not liquidating some ETH at 3950 today.

[night timber]

is my way of naming colors for my color palette too confusing for others?

[fervent granite]

black abs

[brave field]

I really like dark white

[night timber]

absolute black

[fervent granite]

are there flavours of black and white?

I would think that something either is or isn't black

[arctic yarrow]

Seems pretty straightforward to me.

[viral jackal]

Yo , those somebody knows about a good laptop brand?

That will not brake my wallet either

[brave field]

every brand has their good and their bad products

as for the second, what are you using the laptop for?

[viral jackal]

School and video rendering most of the time . And gaming but like i play in low graphics anyway dont care much about the gaming aspect

The current one i have is okayish , but soon ill have to replace it so yeah

[brave field]

specs of the current one, so one who recommends doesn't recommend something worse?

[viral jackal]

HP laptop 15-bs011la
Intel Core i3 6006U
Ram 8GB
hard drive 1TB
Windowa 10 (64 Bits)

[arctic yarrow]

It's torture seeing ETH just barely stay under $4k

CROSS THAT FUCKING THRESHOLD ALREADY

[tall dome]

ETH just for too high for me to invest on

maybe next crypto boom

#memes-and-shitposting

[brave field]

ooooh nice

You running this on your UnRAID system?

ah

The SWAG thing, how much ram does it use for you?

I was going to setup PiHole, Plex, SWAG, a backup of English Wikipedia
Yesterday I made the dumb mistake of doing my actual full OMV setup on a Raspberry pi 3a+ that I bought only for testing

45mb ouch

my 432mb of usable ram and 57% idle ram usage cringes at that

5-6GB of ram, how?

I've got loads of things running and somehow only use 200something mb

makes sense

It takes nearly 2 minutes to reload after changing any OMV settings

When I get some free time I'm going to try and clone everything over

hey uh, you have a firewall setup?

Software-side, with iptables or ufw or something similar?

ah

Still trying to wrap my head around the reverse proxy and VPN stuff

I have no firewall on the server and my router is doing its normal blocking of everything, I've heard using a VPN setup lets you connect form the outside witout using port-forwarding?

thought it sounded off

not UnRAID, OpenMediaVault, free bootleg with less easy-to-install plugins

I see, hm

I have the options to get openVPN or PiVPN and have to use SSH for configuring them or use Docker for it

Is UnRAID's VPN based on some other software?

setup guides seem... really easy?

install, have the port ready, scan qr code with phone?

The setup guide I'm reading is for OMV, the author says he wanted to make it similar to how its done with other setups are but his bash script is made in a way that makes it only work on his own PC

Money for convenience, a fair trade

Another question

Does SWAG interfere with other Apache/NGINX installs you have?

Say if I wanted a local-only website and one open to the internet, do I have to use different ports there or do the other components of swag + Cloudflare make it so I don't have to

ah

alrighty

only other thing I see is having double fail2ban running on my system

but that shouldn't hurt anything

I have an OMV-wide fail2ban installed but not running, yet. I have family members who routinely install malware on their systems

I'm probably thinking wrong but wouldn't the internet-available site be double fail2ban protected, once in Docker from SWAG and the other being OMV/server-wide?

hm, that explains it

I was surprised seeing how efficient Docker was so far, Docker on WSL2 is terrible in comparison

I think I'll just buy another raspberry pi and have that one be the internet-facing server

interesting

You know much about the probing bots and such online?

I made something in python using socket and I have an eval() statement around the packets received

Are they good enough to... idk, find out I have that in there and throw a rm -rf at my server?

thanks for the link

I'll try this out

[tame current]

What's an example of a ram brand which gives 32gb?

[stone harbor]

for 32 you would probably need 4x8

[tame current]

4x8?

[stone harbor]

4 sticks with 8 gb each

you could also get 2x16

[jovial tide]

Go 2x16

[tame current]

I was thinking of 2x32, if it exists.

[jovial tide]

you have the open slots for the future

[stone harbor]

2x32?

[tame current]

Yes

[stone harbor]

are you insane

[jovial tide]

It exists

[stone harbor]

thats so expensive

and unnecessary

[jovial tide]

What was your pc for again

[tame current]

Flight simulator and I'm just curious how did people get 64gb

[jovial tide]

2x32 or 4x16

[stone harbor]

https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-PC4-25600-Memory-Black-CMW64GX4M2E3200C16/dp/B081BTGNDW

[jovial tide]

Get 2x16

Crucial ballistix 3200 c16 of 3600 c16

why not

oh

eh I’d rather have open slots and sometimes it’s more finnicky to get 4 sticks running with xmp

[stone harbor]

i feel even 32gb is a bit much

[jovial tide]

Flight sim reccomends 32

If he wasn’t playing that I’d say 16

[stone harbor]

yeah

the system (with a bunch of background stuff) uses about 3-6 gb

and most apps wont use more than 2 or 3

[jovial tide]

I have 32 in my system

[tame current]

1pc 32 will be bad, right?

[jovial tide]

Yes

[arctic yarrow]

Not neccessarily, but you will have less performance than 2x16

[jovial tide]

Single channel especially on ryzen hurts performance

[stone harbor]

isn't it the more sticks the better

because load can distribute more evenly

[jovial tide]

2 is usually the best for gaming

[stone harbor]

instead of bottlenecking only 1

[arctic yarrow]

Yes, but in actuality the performance difference is ~5%

[jovial tide]

Most of the high end overclocking boards only have 2 lol

[tame current]

Thank you guys

The advantage of 2 pcs would be more vacant slots, hehe.

[arctic yarrow]

My view is if you're gaming, I would recommend 2x16. However, if you think you're going to need a serious amount of RAM in the future and can't fill it up now, go for the 1x32.

[tame current]

As of now, I think the reason why people get 64gb is either flexing or futureproofing.

[arctic yarrow]

99% of the time it's flexing

[brave field]

ramdisk, caching/buffer for video, heavy VM use?

[arctic yarrow]

Only if you have quad channel memory. Otherwise 2x16 would perform identically.

Thanks for correcting me. I'm probably still thinking about performance back in 2014.

It doesn't seem to make that huge of a difference though.

[tame current]

4 pcs would be the max, right?

[stone harbor]

what if i do 16x2 and 2 dummy sticks

[arctic yarrow]

Depends on what motherboard you have.

[tame current]

I have an idea. Pentium 1 with GPU and RAM at Pentium 1 level for Flight Simulator 2020.

[cold elbow]

when dummy stick cost 60$ of the actual ram it becomes the stupidest purchase ever

[jovial tide]

my dummy sticks were 20 bucks

look nice too

[cold elbow]

back when a stick costs 40

u can get 16GB 2x8 for like 90 or less lmao

[fervent granite]

is it possible to take off those rainbow things?

[stone harbor]

you can turn them off with a program

[jovial tide]

not physically, but you can turn them off

[fervent granite]

[tame current]

Ram card brands don't matter that much, right?

[jovial tide]

they do

id stick with ballisitx imo

[tame current]

What would different brands do?

[jovial tide]

ive heard they are great overclockers and look nice

[jovial tide]

they could mix memory chips from different brands overprice it too much etc

[tame current]

Oh

I'm curious because I found a Gskill Ripjaws DDR4 32gb ram card which seems to be cheaper than the Corsair Vengeance 32gb ram.

[brave field]

Often the brands are only in charge of aesthetics and warranty

Consumer ram production is still done only by Samsung, Micron, and Hynix

[tame current]

How about performance wise?

Do brands matter?

Given that we only use 1 brand.

[brave field]

If cl, rank, and mhz is the same, and people online are reporting similar die type, they're probably identical sticks underneath the plastic cover

[tame current]

Oh

Hmph, the RTX 3070 I see which is available is expensive, more expensive than the competitor's RTX 3080 from same brand.

[jovial tide]

wher

[tame current]

I'm searching in online shops from our country, different, both are legit but the ZOTAC GAMING RTX 3070 available seems overpriced but hey, it's available. The ZOTAC GAMING RTX 3080 being sold in another shop is out of stock though but cheaper than the former.

[jovial tide]

probably a discontinued model

the tuf 3080 non oc was like 700 but was discontinued

still that price i think

[tame current]

The shop which sells that overpriced GPU seems to overprice their GPUs like an RTX 3060 there would be a price of RTX 3070 in the other.

[jovial tide]

some 3060s cost more than 3070

[tame current]

Oh, but why?

[jovial tide]

manufacturers setting that price because nvidia sells them the chips for too much and because they can bc of high demand

[tame current]

Oh

[tame current]

DDR5 will be released at Q3 2021, what do you guys think about it?

[silent mason]

Meh... I'd rather stick with DDR4

[tame current]

And what does f stand for in the intel? Like 11900f?

[jovial tide]

no integrated gpu

[tame current]

Oh

So it means it's not like k so it can't be overclocked.

[jovial tide]

Why is windows update taking so long

[tame current]

DDR5 is said to be faster while using less power than DDR4.

[silent mason]

I'm still on DDR3... DDR4 is still gonna be a massive upgrade for me

[brave field]

Early DDR5 will suck, just like early DDR4 and early DDR3

expect sad-looking 3200-3600mhz cl16 DDR5 until mid-2022

[kindred temple]

Theyre already hitting 5k+ at the engineering sample wdym

[brave field]

engineering sample, yes

early consumer ram always sucks though

There were loads of 1866 and 1600mhz DDR4 kits early on

engineering samples hit 4266 but most people today are still buying 3000/3200mhz too

[lilac fable]

if i had 2 hdmi 3090s would that mean i could hook up 4 monitors total

not that i would ever find or afford 2 3090s just curious lol

[silent mason]

Each GPU can take 4 monitors, so I believe you'd be able to hook up 8 monitors total

[fervent granite]

Power consumption would be insane I’d imagine

[silent mason]

Well, I've seen dual PSUs being used for dual 3090s

And I'm talking dual 1600W PSUs no less

@jovial tideYou could have downloaded from microsoft update catalog manually too.

[jovial tide]

from 5-10 seconds

[cold elbow]

Ye

[arctic trench]

should i just buy a ps5 or a $650 pc?

[vapid grove]

PC is more versatile obviously, but a PS5 will likely give a better gaming experience than whatever PC $650 buys you

On the other hand, games are cheaper(can be free) and more varied on PC

[brave field]

If you're buying soon, go with the PS5. <$900 PCs are terrible value right now since budget GPUs don't exist

[arctic trench]

im prob gonna just buy at like summer or even fall

[brave field]

I'd be surprised if Nvidia made a viable $200-$230 GPU and it was easy to purchase and in stock consistently before 2022

[jovial tide]

ps5

or xbox for that backwards compatibility

[arctic trench]

im a a sony person but i cant lie the backwards combattibillity is sexy af

[brave field]

You might need the Windows Update Assistant

It does... something that helps get around the issues the built-in update system has (and of course leaves behind files and services when you uninstall it so you're forced to continue to get updates)

Its worked well for me twice, give it a shot if you haven't@jovial tide

[jovial tide]

I am updating with assistant

It gets to 99% then its stuck

[brave field]

oh, with the assistant? ouch

probably won't do much but run sfc /scannow and the DISM commands, and clear out the update cache

[jovial tide]

Tryint now what microsoft support said,its working on updates but idk what

I kinda mess up in one place but we will see

[jovial tide]

Guys, if you buy a processor, what are the chances that it's fake or counterfeit?

[zealous pasture]

depends from where u buy it from

mostly

[arctic yarrow]

One reason why I run some game servers on a RAM drive.

[fervent granite]

If we can have nas boxes why aren’t there any ram boxes?

Would be pretty neat if we got a ram farm of like 128 gb that could be work as regular storage even if it were temporary

G502 handles like a boat, deathadder is impossible to claw, and Roccat build quality is eh in my experience.

So for FPS? None of the 3

[low tiger]

Used to a semi-pro CS:GO player. Death adder is my go to. But I have big hands so keep that in mind

[brave field]

still has doodoo randoms

[kindred temple]

Qdepth so high its basically on weed

Real world its basically gonna be nvme gen 3 level.

[jovial tide]

holy fuck

imagine if this was real

[kindred temple]

[silent mason]

I should probably order those Razer ARGB controllers 😂

[kindred temple]

Youre gonna stuck with synapse protocol and synapse only.

Honestly i would go for an asus aura protocol compatible atleast outside of their own protocol or even openRGB.

[cold elbow]

Corsair>

[kindred temple]

^

[silent mason]

But I already use all Razer peripherals and use AuraConnect to sync my Aura to Chroma...

So being stuck with Chroma protocol to me isn't a bad thing. I really like Chroma.

[kindred temple]

I dont, fuck synapse.

but yeah

then go for it honestly

[silent mason]

Yeah, each input can be controlled individually too which I really like.

If I use an Aura one, then my peripherals are snookered and if I AuraConnect it in, then well, it only shows as a single device.

Also, rgb.net is able to tap into Synapse too, as well as Corsair, Aura, etc.

Though yeah, preference for Synapse here. I have to install iCUE though so I can tell my RAM to leave it to Asus Aura to control its lighting.

Though will have 4 software installed for that stuff. Razer Synapse (main), Asus Aura (motherboard and GPU), Corsair iCUE (RAM, but has motherboard option), Lian Li L-Connect (case fans and rgb cables, also has ARGB header control option)

[cold elbow]

I only have 1

Logitech gaming software

I can control motherboard RGB from the bios
And my fans can be controlled by the Coolermaster controller which is programable so I don't need its software installed or running

[silent mason]

I'll be using game integrations so having it all in Synapse would be best for me.

[kindred temple]

Possibly.

My i5 1135G7 with integrated Xe Max runs at like 30 in lowest

https://thehackernews.com/2021/05/nearly-all-wifi-devices-are-vulnerable.html

[kindred temple]

The findings have been shared with the Wi-Fi Alliance, following which firmware updates were prepared during a 9-month-long coordinated disclosure period. Microsoft, for its part, released fixes for some of the flaws (CVE-2020-24587, CVE-2020-24588, and CVE-2020-26144) as part of its Patch Tuesday update for May 2021. Vanhoef said an updated Linux kernel is in the works for actively supported distributions.

But the thing i wonder with this is:

According to Vanhoef, the issues stem from "widespread" programming mistakes encoded in the implementation of the standard, with some flaws dating all the way back to 1997. The vulnerabilities have to do with the way the standard fragments and aggregates frames, allowing threat actors to inject arbitrary packets and trick a victim into using a malicious DNS server, or forge the frames to siphon data.

Does this mean manual DNS overrides can be a fix?

[brave field]

Doesn't seem the easiest to exploit

[kindred temple]

Thats kinda my issue with most exploit news nowadays

its so hard to pull by script kiddies, its basically

"youll need to plug in the hacked up flash drive to the mainframe"

[brave field]

this demonstration video is cool, but the first attack seems very cumbersome

you have to infect the server, have a copy of the page ready, and get the user to connect to a clone of the network

If someone wants to do it, it'll get done, but it doesn't seem easy enough to warrant any sort of emergency update to fix it

third one is interesting and seems practical

[cold elbow]

So what happens if user connect

[tame current]

I knew I should've bought PC at least last January...

[jovial tide]

normal users like us don't have to be worried, but large organizations/offices with sensitive data need to be prepared.

[kindred temple]

Most of those who have massive NDA locked file servers usually also have security contractor or a dedicated IT wing.

If they have neither, the CEO should not be surprised of any cyber leaks.

[strong saffron]

They might be randomising mac addresses each time they connect. It was on by default on my phone

[cold elbow]

My phone has that as well

[jovial tide]

@jovial tide I mean yea, open source softwares are the way to go these days, but even those still can be vulnerable

everything can get exploited

frankly speaking ,everything that is connected to internet is not safe

and not privacy-friendly :(

who knows, im sure there are many 0days actively being exploited right now, and they may not even be known for months or years, it's really hideous.

[jovial tide]

bruh i just found out i was using mouse accel for over 5 years :/

now it just feels weird when i dont use it

[frigid echo]

managed switch :X

[frigid echo]

oof

I just have seen and had people I know who do a lot of networks have such bad bad luck with managed switches.

a tech department at a school they can't keep the things running for more than three years before they fail. When they can keep the unmanaged switches going for near a decade +

this is also true

[strong saffron]

Is there a way I can tunnel traffic from my PC through an SSH server but have a custom HTTP header on the traffic between my PC and the SSH server?

[strong saffron]

I found this https://github.com/proxytunnel/proxytunnel, It can send custom headers but it's used to connect to a destination server via proxy. I think you can use it with SSH tunnels but I don't know how

[spring condor]

why do you need a http header for a SSH server

[strong saffron]

to get around some ISP restrictions

[cold elbow]

I use a vpn that support split tunneling

[strong saffron]

VPNs are also not allowed

[spring condor]

proxy tunnel looks like a viable option, but you will need to start ssh on the server and setup redirects from 443 to 22

[strong saffron]

blocked, i guess. it's not illegal or anything

i have no idea. I doubt they've blocked proper VPNs because no one pays for those here. This is also not on my connection so I can't test either. They just say it's blocked

yeah that's pretty much what I've read as well. I'll take a look at nginx too, thanks

was kinda hoping to not have to pay for a VPN though

[kindred temple]

Try proton

[cold elbow]

the vpn i use is free for 15GB a month lol

and u can create a custom plan and pay like a dollar or two for one country of your choice

[jovial tide]

why it says in my friend list just ' show profile
i want to invite him to the game

[cold elbow]

depends on the game

[strong saffron]

How does that work? If I'm hosting a VPN, wouldn't it be also restricted because the VPN connects to the internet through the same ISP?

[strong saffron]

Windscribe, I'm guessing? I kind of want to figure out this tunneling thing but that's what I'll go with if I can't

[spring condor]

So I did something and bot messages aren't showing up

Lovely

[cold elbow]

@strong saffron yes.

[brave field]

Is there an easy way to get aria2 or curl to download files from a public Google drive share? I try to get a direct download link but it always ends up downloading the website itself rather than just the file

[brave field]

Wha

You swap drive for docs and it works?

Oh huh

I'm gonna try that when I get home

[grim quest]

These new discord highlights for example #gta-news looks gross

i prefer the old version

[silent mason]

Tomorrow I get to argue with iCUE again.

[crisp spoke]

Anyone using Corsair Commander Pro?

If yes, please DM me once. I need to suggestion regarding that

[cold elbow]

Don't have one but i was thinking of buy one

[zealous pasture]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aI4CAJA6wgk

uhm

[crisp spoke]

Is it worth buying?

[cold elbow]

depends on your use
for some of us is essential since u can control pretty much everything and Icue is a good software

[crisp spoke]

Yeah but i just have a corsair radiator with two fans. Should i spent on that just to control the rgb?

[cold elbow]

for me i wanted it mainly to control my fans since my mobo controls sucks

[zealous pasture]

lol

[cold elbow]

is it an AIO that supports icue? @crisp spoke

[crisp spoke]

Yep

[cold elbow]

oh cool then u can control your fans with that

and u can get a fan with it's controller from corsair

[crisp spoke]

Let's see. Planning to get one today.

[silent mason]

My case fans all connect to a single hub from Lian Li, which then uses an argb header. I probably need more usb2 headers though. :(

[jovial tide]

Hello

Im having a problem

Im on ps4 and Im stuck on pc

Pc vc,s

[silent mason]

Is it GTA related or just general tech?

[jovial tide]

Like the server

I join pc vc,s

Wich i dont want i want ps4

[silent mason]

There are no PC only voice chats on this server.

[jovial tide]

Then im getting trolled

Well thx

[silent mason]

Also you have the PlayStation role not PC role.

[jovial tide]

Ok

Well thx anyway

[silent mason]

Urgh, not looking forward to having another argument with Asus Armoury Crate and Corsair iCUE

[crisp spoke]

😕 I have armoury crate but to be honest i don't like the armoury create. It has potential but it doesn't gives you the full potential to use them.. looking forward to try iCUE

[silent mason]

So, I've got iCUE somewhat there with managing my motherboard and GPU RGB... It doesn't do the ARGB headers, and it doesn't do half of the lighting on the GPU (wat?)... but for those ARGB headers, I'll be using a Razer ARGB controller anyway

(and then with that Chroma controller in there, I'll also be using ChromaControl to pull from iCUE to Synapse, to have all RGB in one place)

[crisp spoke]

Well i don't think iCUE will be able to control anything which was not made by Corsair. If there's anything that can give me the same result which I'm expecting from commander pro I'll take that

Basically i want that just so that my radiator fan color and rear fan color syncs together and doesn't make my CPU look like a rainbow 😝

[silent mason]

Asus motherboards integrate with iCUE, and so do Asus GPUs (however RGB support is flaky)

[crisp spoke]

So If i get an Asus Strix motherboard and i want to pair it with corsair AIO and corsair fan. I don't need the corsair commander pro to manage my rgb. Is the right?

[silent mason]

So things not made by Corsair aren't automatically ineligible for iCUE control. Asus partnered officially with Corsair for it, but for other brands there's probably third party solutions to drag them into iCUE.

For example there's ChromaControl being developed atm which will take my Asus and Corsair RGB and plug it into Razer Synapse.

[crisp spoke]

@silent mason can you please clarify this for me. If this works out i can save some money

[silent mason]

As for your individual case, probably worth asking that in the Corsair server as there'll be people there much more knowledgeable than me on the nuances of Asus and iCUE

[crisp spoke]

Thanks for the idea. Lets see

[worthy schooner]

Your power depends more on your GPU than the CPU.

@random edge

[random edge]

Oh

[worthy schooner]

Sure, a good CPU and RAM is also important, but the GPU is responsible for what the game looks (and feels) like with more FPS.

Also, a good motherboard is important.

[random edge]

GPU is also responsible for mutli tasking?

I don't play AAA games on laptop. Just want it for livestreaming and editing videos without any hiccups

[worthy schooner]

If you want to stream and edit, I suggest looking at upgrading your RAM.

2x8 is a good start. 2x16 is more than enough.

[random edge]

Ok

[worthy schooner]

Also, I suggest looking at 3.2 GHz and above.

[random edge]

Alright

[glass sapphire]

guys if you owned a high end gpu would you sell it while the prices/demand is up?

downgrading to a lesser gpu

im kinda considering it

[brave field]

I 100% would

Getting $900 for a $350 2060? yup

[glass sapphire]

right?

[vapid grove]

I'd be sure I bought my replacement prior to selling it

[brave field]

$2500 for a $700 3080? that too

[glass sapphire]

im pretty sure i could get like atleast 1.3 for mine

thats 300 more then what i paid for my whole rig

i feel like i might regret it tho

if the prices never drop

[vapid grove]

What gpu is it?

[glass sapphire]

5700 xt

[brave field]

They'll HAVE to drop sooner or later

[glass sapphire]

very asked for mining gpu

[vapid grove]

1.3 for a 5700?

Eh

[glass sapphire]

way more depending on the buyer

[vapid grove]

I dont know about that

[glass sapphire]

i would even be okey with 800 the card was like 400 when i bought it

[brave field]

consumer moment

You 100% will make a big profit if you set up an auction

but having something to use in the meantime might be an issue

[glass sapphire]

i still got my old 1070

no where near as powerfull but its enough for most games i play

[brave field]

a used one sold for $1600 yesterday

[glass sapphire]

yea im totally gonna try my luck

most of the gpus get bought by huge mining companies so they dont really care much about prices

no wounder the prices are going to the roof

rip people who try to build a decent rig

[vapid grove]

If I were rich I'd buy a bunch of nice GPUs and just destroy them all on YouTube

Rake in that monetization money

[glass sapphire]

thats the reason you're not rich

rich people dont do stuff like that

[brave field]

it seems most of these ebay purchases are individuals who refuse to set up a bot to buy for them rather than mining farms

You always see "bots are shady"->"I got my card on ebay for $3000" comments from people but never complaints from the mining farms

[glass sapphire]

idk ebay was always sketch

i usually avoid it

[brave field]

ebay is my go-to

their customer service team and it being a toxic place for sellers makes it unfairly safe for the buyer

get a bit nervous trying to sell old parts there, scamming a seller as a customer is far too easy

[glass sapphire]

i mostly do business with people i know

but i guess ebay is neat if you wanna get rid of stuff but usually quite toxic

[silent mason]

I got everything synced up to iCUE... but I need to get Project Aurora...

[light totem]

that's quite concerning

[jovial tide]

me

[cold elbow]

my shitbox pc arrived so i can start building a server
not sure which OS to use now

[brave field]

Don't pick Windows

Debian-based distros (Ubuntu server, maybe?) seem to have the most support since they're both easy to install and use

[cold elbow]

@brave field i actually just downloaded popOS

Is that a good one since it's based on Linux

System came with windows 7 so im stressing now to test the thermals

[brave field]

Haven't used Pop! really, but it looks fine to me. I hear that one a lot when people talk about gaming and such, it might have a bit of extra stuff installed and running that wouldn't be useful for the server parts of your system

[cold elbow]

Yeah it's kinda more updated and more user friendly

Im not good with linux tbh

[brave field]

I think I'd go for something cut down a little more, they're talking about GameHub and having high-power graphics switching apps and their alternative to the Google Play Store and such on their site, and you might have some oddities with it encrypting your OS partition as part of the install process

Probably something like Lubuntu or Xubuntu if you don't want to start off headless and don't want to dedicate too many resources to the desktop environment. Pop's description doesn't really say much about being more user-friendly (well, it does say it, but nothing seems to say why it would be so) than those two, and those two will already feel pretty familiar to a Windows user.

[cold elbow]

Which one do u prefer
I mainly want to use it as a file server and need to setup a nextcloud
Maybe in future block ads with it and make plex server

Installed pop now to experiment how nextcloud even works then will probably using another distro or TrueNas

Since unraid cost a lot

[brave field]

Note FreeNAS/TrueNAS is based on BSD rather than the normal Linux kernel, not sure how much that will change exactly, but that could impact something

[cold elbow]

Yeah only concern that they want 8gb ram

That is not promising for my shitbox

[brave field]

I'm using OpenMediaVault as an alternative to TrueNAS, its not as polished but its been really nice to use

[cold elbow]

Yes I'm considering openmediavault as well

[brave field]

You can't get a huge amount of help online since they've changed drastically from OMV4 to OMV5 but you get a pretty good package overall, useful plugins, and you can control most of the same stuff you'd be using in TrueNAS

Its VERY lightweight

[cold elbow]

Yeah i have an i3 2100

And 4gb ram

[brave field]

I have it and 3 docker containers running on a Raspberry pi and its using just under 300mb of ram

[cold elbow]

Wow

[brave field]

Two websites, a wiki page, a samba share, FTP share, backups, temperature monitor web frontend, Microsoft's RDP, everything of the sort

It uses NOTHING and leaves your entire system to the containers and plugins and programs you want to run

[cold elbow]

That's sweet

Btw i found a sticker for Windows 7 serial number on it
Wrote it in my main pc and worked :pepeJam:

[brave field]

Nice, hope they never change or remove that I've activated 6 systems with Windows 7 codes

[cold elbow]

It said that it's registered to my Microsoft account now

[brave field]

any version converts to its digital license equivalent instantly, its really handy

here's what base XFCE looks like if you were interested

[cold elbow]

Looks fine

Do u know about nextcloud?

[brave field]

menus, titles, windows, all work identically to Windows 10 and LXDE, the only bloatware here is its Snap Store, Pidgin, and LibreOffice (they didn't include a partition manager, weirdly)

I've heard a lot about Nextcloud and almost used it

but I don't really know much, nah

but I don't really know much objectively, nah

[cold elbow]

Maybe u never needed it

I need something that can automatically back up my devices

Especially the phone

And i want it to back them uo in their original folders

[brave field]

I think MiXplorer can back up your phone to anything. It connects to FTP, samba, and cloud services, but I don't know what other features Nextcloud may have that makes it better to use for backups than a normal Samba share.

[cold elbow]

Im currently using syncthings on my main computer to sync these folders but it's still janky

[brave field]

Duplicati might be useful, but I don't know what client makes sense to go with it.

[cold elbow]

I want it to sync changes

Syncthings did that well but the GUI is not that easy

[brave field]

hm

Are you using a GUI to exclude certain paths or manually do backups? ~~If you have something like Git Bash or WSL installed, you might be able to have it schedule a normal Linux rsync backup in the background for you, no fiddling around with the GUI at all, for the computer.~~I misread, oops

rsync only cares about files that change too, so it shouldn't hurt storage either

[cold elbow]

I add the folder that i want to sync on my phone then setup permissions and recovery method

Then i have to approve it on the server which is my pc then specify a folder for it and setup everything

U have to do this for every freaking folder

I was hoping that it's like any sync apps on your phone that it automatically detects photos

Nextcloud presumably does that .... Like hosting your own cloud service

[brave field]

ah

[cold elbow]

It's how it backup is the issue

[cold elbow]

After some struggling i made nextcloud kinda works and it's doing what i want ish.... Will continue testing tomorrow

[cold elbow]

UNRAID A LOTTT

I have to buy hard drives and nearly broke

Can i try it before buying? @frosty vortex

This sounds promising

[silent mason]

Is unraid a subscription or one off cost?

[cold elbow]

One time charge

60$

[silent mason]

That's not too bad then

[cold elbow]

My system costed me 30$

[silent mason]

When you were saying it's stupidly expensive I was expecting like $500 a month.

[cold elbow]

[silent mason]

But $60 one time charge, that's no big deal to me.

[cold elbow]

Thing is
Other solutions are free like TrueNas

[silent mason]

If it beats the pants off the free solutions I don't mind paying.

[cold elbow]

Yeah im trying to justify it and settle on one solution

It's hard to figure out and endup up in trying them all

Thinking of installing proxmox and make vms for truenas and unraid

[kindred temple]

cries profusely in Ryzen

Yeah but iirc still quite finicky.

no, for virtual machines

like, 2 computers and all

ah i see

I genuinely think to run a 5900X with 32GB of ram and 2 3060Ti

[brave field]

Duplicacy has DRM and annoys you if you change hardware 🤢

[kindred temple]

Oh btw

@frosty vortex @brave field does any one of you ever heard of MQA?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRjsu9-Vznc

[sudden geyser]

'

[cold elbow]

but it has parity drive and u can use two of these... why u think it's not reliable?

[trim pumice]

Anyone know how good this is for a laptop?

Price is £899.99

[arctic yarrow]

What's the GPU?

[trim pumice]

Assuming you mean this

Just seeing now actually

[arctic yarrow]

It's... ok, especially considering current GPU prices.

[trim pumice]

4gb ram

[arctic yarrow]

4gb vram

[trim pumice]

[arctic yarrow]

4gb vram is decent

[trim pumice]

Ah

Well yeah, I wanna get some recommendations for a gaming laptop for a friend

The pictures are the specs for a Acer Nitro 5 so

[arctic yarrow]

It would have been a little expensive for the hardware, but with the current market prices it's a good option.

[trim pumice]

Alright these are the final specs for the Acer Nitro 5 for £899.99

My friend is also looking at a Lenovo Legion 5P with a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 and AMD Ryzen 7 4th Gen

8GB DDR4 RAM + 256GB SSD

Lenovo is for £849.97

[brave field]

Costs less and runs better

That price is almost fishy

[trim pumice]

It's at a discount atm from Curry's PC World

Original price is £999

[brave field]

You can't even get a desktop with a 2060 at that price, wow (though a 3060 fits instead, its hard to get)

[trim pumice]

[brave field]

i'd probably go for that and put the saved money towards a usable amount of storage

[trim pumice]

My friend has the sole objective of playing FiveM on it, would that be good enough or no?

[brave field]

Both laptops are overkill for fivem

The second is just more overkill at a lower price

[trim pumice]

Alrighty

[trim pumice]

Would you have any other recommendations in terms of laptops that are similar to the Lenovo or no

[brave field]

Urrh

Take a peek at r/buildapcsales, they might have something good

[trim pumice]

Gotcha

[brave field]

Oh, right

buildapcsalesuk

Unless that place has decided to stop existing like the EU one

[trim pumice]

Alright well the Lenovo is out of stock unsurprisingly

How good are the Acer Nitro 5's specs for the price listed?

[brave field]

I'm not great with laptop prices, but I think its alright with how bad things are right now

[trim pumice]

I can get the Acer Nitro 5 for my friend tomorrow too so

The Lenovo, god knows when that'll be in stock

[brave field]

I think a desktop system with these specs would be around £460 or so without the monitor, so not the worst for a laptop

Any others in a similar price range with an RTX GPU? A 2060 is a noticeable jump up from a GTX 1660 ti if he plays something other than GTAO/FiveM

[trim pumice]

RTX ones are the ones mainly over 1k and that's the most they want to spend atm

Let me look on Amazon and PC world

@brave field How does this look?

RTX 3060

[brave field]

Giant step up

[trim pumice]

That's for £999

Lenovo Legion 5

[brave field]

worth considering, though its not great compared to the 2060 one that isn't in stock right now

[trim pumice]

I'm assuming Legion over the Nitro atm?

There's an MSI with these

£899.97

[brave field]

That one is a good choice

Its better than the nitro, and not hugely more expensive than the first Lenovo one that is out of stock

[trim pumice]

So at this point, which one do you think is the best for the price

[brave field]

Probably that MSI one purely on specs

The Legion's £100 increase isn't worth it for 2060->3060 and the 1660ti one costs the same while being weaker

It sucks that storage gets sacrificed but that's easy to upgrade or replace

[trim pumice]

Guarantee for the MSI is 1 year

Same for the Lenovo

Acer Nitro too so

[brave field]

I vote for the MSI one, unless something better turns up

[trim pumice]

@brave field Are there any key difference between intel and AMD processors?

Anything that would make em pick one of them over the other?

[brave field]

Nothing huge for 99% of use cases

Some things that do have a large difference and are much faster on Intel are PS3 emulation, Android app development, Bluestacks (which should never be used), and things that rely on AVX512. I don't know of anything that is faster on AMD processors because of a factor other than its specs.

I think those are good too but yeah I’m just not an rgb person

[silent mason]

And I need another SL140 fan because the bloody twin 120mm fans just wouldn't fit at the bottom of my case. Got stuck to the bloody cable hiding flaps...

[jovial tide]

corsair rgb is a bitch to manage but it does look pretty good in the end

[silent mason]

And yes, the back fan is a 140mm, three 140mm fans at the top, and 4 120mm fans at the front.

[vapid grove]

Me with my all black no LED build

[tall dome]

I think I am gonna rework my whole cable management when I get a new GPU

[silent mason]

The fans are Lian Li not Corsair

They're the daisy chained Unifans

[jovial tide]

when i can get some money imma pay someone to custom loop and cable manage pc

too lazy to do it myself and its a sff case

[winged juniper]

Anyonw kniw money gitches on ps4?

I need help lol

[silent mason]

I just installed the ITX standoffs for my secondary PC case.

[jovial tide]

idk

[silent mason]

Also this is a non GTA stuff channel adxm

[tall dome]

I think buying some cable extensions should be on my bucket list now

[vapid grove]

[tall dome]

Everyday I cry

[silent mason]

But yeah, main PC can be up to E-ATX (but it's just ATX I have, Asus ROG C8H WiFi motherboard), secondary is ITX only.

But Salty, for your GPU 8 pin cables and 24 pin motherboard cables, go Strimer Plus

Because then RGB

[kindred temple]

Meshify C is good tho

[tall dome]

S2*

[kindred temple]

Even better

[tall dome]

I am probably gonna fix all this when I get that 3080

[silent mason]

Maybe get an Enthoo Elite Salty lol

Or a Corsair 1000D

[kindred temple]

5000D @silent mason

🥺

Why that chonker

When you can have a beaut

[silent mason]

Well I'm using a chonky Enthoo 719 myself.

But he can build two systems in one if he has the Elite/1000D (he also can with the 719, but let's just go big or go home at this point)

[silent mason]

But yeah @kindred temple my case is gonna be housing an RDNA2 APU as well in the ITX section. So double computer.

[kindred temple]

Virtualization with AMD card is on crack though

Its mad good

[silent mason]

Unfortunately my limitations can't be solved with a simple virtualisation

I need more simultaneous outputs than my GPU allows

It's a very weird setup that I can't exactly explain, but the dual PC setup is the easiest way to make it work basically.

[cold elbow]

U only need to cable manage your cables

U obviously know nothing about that

Sorry for being harsh but that must be fixed

[tall dome]

working on that later

[tall dome]

also your is not the harshed I heard before

[zealous pasture]

Usb 3 isnt plugged

y

[zealous pasture]

try sfc/scannow

there might be a missing registry file

[silent mason]

Because that's in-progress. We were just making sure the thing would boot first there.

[fallow forge]

@zealous pasture windows resource protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them

my pc seems to still be cursed

[kindred temple]

Tech tip: boxes are the best test bench @silent mason

[silent mason]

Had I built it from scratch I would have done. But it was a prebuilt we were making some modifications to, so it came in the case already

Because I haven't changed the case, motherboard, CPU, or BIOS, warranty is still intact. For CPU and BIOS, if I contact the company who made it, they can authorise me to update the BIOS without voiding warranty.

for all those gta macro lovers, becareful

[cold elbow]

How can that effect it's users

[zealous pasture]

did u run cmd as admin ?

[fallow forge]

Yes

[kindred temple]

This is a standalone executable that contains the following: the AHK interpreter, the AHK script, and any files it has incorporated via the FileInstall command. In this campaign, the attackers incorporate malicious scripts/executables alongside a legitimate application to disguise their intentions."

So basically kids

Because everyone write their own AHK scripts kekw

[zealous pasture]

try dism

[kindred temple]

Or just copy from someone else's

[zealous pasture]

or reset the pc with all data

[fallow forge]

Is rather just fuck this update

I had to reinstall windows not even a month ago because a corrupted windows install

Not gonna do it again

[cold elbow]

Yes so it's not AHK problem

Just the usual getting hacked by being an idiot

[zealous pasture]

it happened with me too

check services .msc for something named wuauserv or somethin

wuauserv

[fervent granite]

I had to reinstall because windows didn’t like that I rm -rf’d my “corrupted” user folder

[zealous pasture]

wha

[kindred temple]

@frosty vortex Ever heard of Sonarworks?

[fervent granite]

Parallels crashed when it tried to boot the windows partition, so when I actually tried to boot into it I got the dreaded “temp account error”

Couldn’t delete my user so I thought the next best thing was to try to delete it manually from macOS

[brave field]

@fervent graniteDoes macOS have the ~ directory and do you know what its supposed to be?

Everywhere I've looked, people have said it just represents home or a directory above it like with Windows, but for some reason the ~ on one of my installs is blank, and I have to manually go to the home directory instead

As if scalpers weren't scumbaggy enough, they're now pulling this shit en-masse:

They're legit buying all the stock, then returning them like this.
