It outperforms it when overclocked but they're both pretty bad purchases individually
Might cancel my current order it's the same price
It's a whole setup
800 euros
Procesor: Intel i7 8700k
Proccesor cooling: AIO Cooler Master 240mm
Graphic card: Nvidia RTX 2060 6Gb Gainward GS
Motherboard Asus Strix z370-H
RAM: 16Gb DDR4 Hyperx
SSD: Samsung M.2 960 EVO 256Gb
Wouldn't cancel the 2060 + 3600 system for that, unless that 3600 system from before has less ram or so
The 3600 one has the same GPU and its already on its way, yeah?
Lemme check
It is on the way
And rtx 2060
This looks good https://www.ebay.ca/itm/154641592237?hash=item24015b6fad:g:O~8AAOSwK3thV9QM&shqty=1&isGTR=1#shId
EVGA GEFORCE RTX 3070 XC3 ULTRA - 940CAD (with shipping) no extra fees
Lemme check the specs of the one I ordered
AMD Ryzen 5 3600
MSI B450 Tomahawk
Ballistix 2x8GB 3200Mhz
Adata SX6000 M.2 256GB SSD
Curcial MX500 250GB SSD
WD Blue 1TB HDD
Gigabyte RTX 2060 6GB OC Edition
Corsair CX550M 550W these are the specs @CookieStudios#5609
This is the one I ordered
don't return it for the 8700k one
@brave field
Ok
Interesting, now I'm going deeper into gpu market
You can't win a bid against bots
it's that simple
Arash modder confirmed
if !join modder isn't working for your friend, tell them to contact modmail
Yeah I'm confirmed. xD I've used OpenIV to put cars into GTA solo player and made FiveM server xd
Can't wait to mod single player games
Also should I use steam to buy and download games or any other sites?
Steam is good but the others are worth considering
GOG, Epic, Ubisoft Connect, Origin, battle.net, the Xbox app, and Rockstar's launcher all will give some good deals or free games occasionally
Nice so all of them?
Most of them are pretty usable, yeah. Steam is by far the best in user experience and featureset
is the alienware M17 i7 3070 17" worth buying?
alienware
no
Go X or go home
I've just returned an Alienware M15 R6 (11800H + 3070) today after 1 week of back and forward talking with Dell.
So the bestbuy option is good, but I highly recommend you get the warranty with it.
makes sense
Also Dell's version with extended warranty is fine. but if you just get it as is, you'll not be happy longterm
yeah it was on bestbuy for 2575
Because that 50 to 90 in 0.5 seconds and 90-100 in CPU bound games will be taxing
makes sense
I loved it tbh, but I thought it's not gonna last more than a year and a half like this.
so they will slowly break down?
It's like having a car on 6000rpm with 97 degrees water
Sooner or later something will be damaged
theres a place near me that repairs laptops etc.
Canada or US?
X15 is perfect my friend
If you really need bigger monitor, buy a monitor on the side, it works well with the laptop.
It has USB-C displayport built in so you can get a USB-C to DP 1.4 cable and connect a g-sync monitor to it
nah I want the laptop for school and maybe play a couple games without lag
What games do you play?
Anyways I think you'll love the X15 + the 240Hz display + 1TB SSD
You should wait for it to go on sale (soon it will) and buy it
welcome to alienware
where the first week is fine but the rest is trash
The X15 and X17 are perfect
My M15 was probably broken (at full speed the left side fan pushed more air out compared to rightside)
Yeah I'm sure it was a one off occurrence
people say its a good laptop
like its a monster
so im convinced on purchasing it
since I also believe it runs 300 hz o a bit higher
Wanna see some results?
This is the M15 R6 I had (11800H + 3070) -> https://www.3dmark.com/spy/23291950 and https://www.3dmark.com/fs/26376400
The 3070 in that laptop is better than rank #1 3060 desktop GPU and on the 30% bottom of 3060TI desktop
Display was fantastic (the 240Hz one)
Audio was above good
CPU cooler was trash (broken probably)
Bios one of the best
RAM kind of bad (3200MHz C20)
SSD perfect (Samsung - 1TB)
Now imagine all of this with better cooling and ram; X15 is perfect.
Now imagine all that in miniatx enclosure
Do you know anything like that? I've just returned the laptop, I need a PC
There are a lot of nice small cases
Like that one from coolermaster that comes with its own AIO and PSU
Man finding a GPU makes me wanna not buy a PC ever again
I'll have to camp near bestbuy downtown Montreal when they restock
Buy a pre-build from a good company
Some of them use off the shelf parts
Is there a Canadian prebuilt company?
Probably
So they tell you Trident Z rams right? and they get C22
As i said
3600MHz 16GB Trident Z you receive C22
Some use off the shelf parts that specify everything about them
Hmm interesting
Ms. Melong what do you think of this? https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/QWvDBc
Looks ok
U can build it cheaper if you are not that much into rgb
And i think that board is expensive
Unless u need whatever it offers
Yep I need the wifi but it really doesn't matter to me what to get as long as it has good VRMs
I saw B550 gaming edge wifi was one of the best there.
Also, I don't care about RGB and couldn't find a better CPU cooler, care or non-rgb ram
Tomahawk usually is really good board
Cant find Arctic liquid freezer?
Well I don't know any better let me check
Liquid freeze literally destroy the competition
Arctic freezer's the same price; does it have better performance?
For a 240?
yes
That's ridiculous
150 canadian flat
It should be like 90$
Anyways for this i guess going corsair is alright
Even when u get better performance
Because 150 is a lot for the liquid freezer
It has restocking issues
Ok then, so the pcpartpicker list is fine
Btw
Do I go for Tomahawk + wifi card instead?
arctic freezer aint got the looks 
Or B550 Gaming Edge Wifi?
Oh CanadaComputers prebuilds?
That's really good news I love Canada Computers
they have decent bundles too look at this https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=&item_id=200471
I know gigabyte but tough times, this might just be the move
100-150$ above the regular price
That's ok price for today's market
And there's also this https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=&item_id=200458
X570 edge is meh though
they don't offer unfortunately
The second bundle I'd love to buy, even though X570 Gaming Edge VRMs are not that good
It's still an x570
U can even save a buck by buying 3200 cl16 ram instead of 3600 cl18
flat 360 + 800
About their pre-builds, they only come with one complaint
They don't enable XMP and the cooler isn't very good
I think if I buy a bundle I can build a better one for same price
but idk about LHR cards
They are ok
Exactly the same as the non lhr
But when it comes to mining they give like 70%?
It says mining voids warranty 
700?
this last one seems insanely good
idk about MSI MPG A750GF's quality but it seems great
770$
670 last one for psu + 3060ti msi
yeah but power response under stress

fk it I'm buying it

can someone help me with my temps. CPU is always like 20-30 degrees higher than my gpu regardless if im gaming or browsing
this is on laptop
Not sure if my settings are messed up, via control panel. etc etc
#justlaptopthings
I wouldn't worry about temps like that, perfectly fine
Measure it at full load and see what your CPU hits
not just temps but performance aswell
whenever i go onto gta, keeps using integrated most of the time compared to my actual gpu
only getting around 40-50 fps regardless of my settings ingame. Whether its high or low
Drivers are up to date aswell
Not sure if you can do this on GTA but you can add a commandline.txt on some games for force them to use your GPU.
Or just disable igpu in bios if it allows you to
you can ensure that the game uses the dedicated high power card instead of the iGPU using the Nvidia Control Panel
also
laptops have different settings for battery and plugged-in modes
most apps switch to iGPUs on battery mode
totally normal for a laptop cpu to idle at 50+ celcius
@prisma citrus <3
VPN
hmm maybe ill try
i reinstalled epic and it still occurs
but
what if i disable vpn after im in
does that mean i gotta use vpn all the time
they dont
And check if MS firewall is blocking epic games
where do i check that 
make sure you've updated epic games launcher (I know there has been an update recently since mine has just updated), if you haven't updated your client could be trying to access api endpoints that url parameters etc have changed
Hi timber what's the model and specs?
Acer Predator Helios 300 (2019 Model) i7 9750h 2.6 ghz, 16 gigs ram, gtx 1660ti
That's a really good laptop overall
I want you to do this for me right click on desktop -> click on nvidia control panel
Then go to the desktop menu on top of the application and enable everything
Do you see Nvidia Optimus there?
nah
I mean in the desktop menu on top, you can take a screenshot with the menu open with winkey+shift+s
Ima brb in a few min i gtg get something
woops wrong ss
is everything in that menu enabled?
in the screenshot above select let 3d application decide
then send a screenshot of your bottom right side of your taskbar
like this
Ok there's no Nvidia optimus apparently how about in 3d settings?
in global settings?
next to desktop 3d settings
Nah
Ok then put it on let the 3d application decide then call it a day
Then is that it?
Yep, also do you have GeForce Experience?
yeah
Do you have it logged in?
yep
For each game there is a 🔧 you can use to fine tune your settings
It's right next to the optimize button when you open game settings in GeForce Experience
unironically the FPS average stays around the same regardless if the settings are intense or low
during the game does it utilize your nvidia gpu?
you can figure that out by pressing alt + R in game
From looking at task manager. Most definitely not
seems to be using mostly integrated
You're looking at task manager out of the game
Oh
Ima try loading up the game then
Yeah press that alt + r button
see if it works for you
Helios has no nvidia optimus so the monitor goes through the integrated graphics to reach dedicated graphics
And that only happens when you have a game open asking for it
nothing seems to pop up when pressing
it doesn't support the geforce overlay either then
how about alt + z?
Nope, keeps taking me to the character control menu panel
is the outcome
Yeah you don't have anything, what if you enable experimental options in GeForce Experience settings?
ima try that
There are some other options in there for battery savings and green crap
disable them aswell
its taking quite a while to load, is that normal?
idk what's happening there send screenshots
it's probably downloading the latest driver to enable that.
enable in game overlay
make sure whisper mode and battery boost are disabled
then the alt + z and alt + r should work
yeah alt z works now
So alt + z -> settings -> performance -> advanced
then alt + r
performance monitoring?
it should be something like that yeah
Ok now it shows
Now you can see everything in games
The overlay is showing up on desktop but not in gta itself. Even when using alt r
Well close the game try again
I assume you installed the features while GTA was open
Ok
Now it shows in game
Yeah now you can do a GTA benchmark by going to settings -> graphics -> pressing tab
You can't do this while ur in single/online but in main menu you can
Using optimized settings for the benchmark. Was averaging around 50fps
well the optimized settings aren't for you then, use the wrench pull it towards performance benchmark again
Ok
FPS is averaging about 90+ now
that's acceptable
although it seems to be utilizing CPU more than GPU. Wonder if thats normal
well you have a CPU bottleneck there then
there's nothing you can do about that really
oof
so in this case you would need a better cpu then
yeah but it's a laptop you can't really
get an alienware m15 r6 when you have the money in a few months
It (the 11800H + 3070 laptop) performs like 5800x + 3060TI desktop
Ik
laptop-sized gpu's for desktops wen 
It's the reality nowadays, it costs less too
and would be a lot smaller
And here is when reality kicks in
Most of those gaming laptops won't have nvidia optimus or optimus advanced and they won't also have the switch to turn it off and use dedicated only.
And the cooling sucks for the most part.
It'll work, but for how long with those sub-par cooling in the 2000 USD range?
Well yeah laptops like that usually have shitty cooling, but if we put those same gpus in a desktop it'll have adequate cooling @jovial tide
You can't 
You'll need to design a motherboard for it based on some chipset
or a PCB that turns the chip into an actual usabe PCI-e x16 card
That will cost more than a 1000-1800$ card you buy from scalpers
or we could just move everything to arm 
arms for embeded computers not PCs
ARM could be the future
First i had crashes, then storage shit, then ejecting disc = xbox shutdown, and now just good ol' "you do not own this"
but we desperately need Intel and AMD working with ARM
Makes me miss my original xbox
well intel is still having a hangover, and it doesn't look like amd is interested 
Adopting ARM is going to have lots of issues without them
We NEED backwards compatibility, but in a way that doesn't compromise everything else being able to exist and work properly
and nobody should know x86_64 better than the folks making it... I think...
Can't rely on Microsoft or Apple to make all the decisions either, sadly
that's part of the problem though, if we always have backwards compatibility available people will be less incentivised to build arm releases
There needs to be a good middleground somewhere
Not Apple-style where you drop support on some random Tuesday and people just stop developing for you entirely, and not Microsoft-style where you keep OS-level bugs so Word 2003 works on Windows 11
So like adobe flash basically?
I think the way WOW64 and NTVDM are handled is good, and the Linux way of "Just build everything on Java/Python/dotnet/Js unless you have to write for the OS" works alright
Flash was retired terribly too!
Adobe offered no way to backup or use Flash programs afterwards
Yeah but they warned us well in advace too
warning is good
although abruptly forcing everyone to adopt arm is heavy-handed, it could be very effective 
moving to arm is a pain fo everyone
but if the industry moves that way it will open the doors to lots of new possibilities
only because people don't like change
in the tech world I mean, to me it seems like everyone has the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" which is why we still have to deal with old bugs
if server space and consoles move to arm 
it's not change it's a revolution if you have to rewrite everything
pics
pics
what about the front
No
bruh you didn't even try
fuck off
The radiator was literally laying ON THE RAM
ALSO
NOTCUA THE FUCKERS
they make 140mm fans
With
120mm HOLES
like wtffffff
so in conclusion
I keep the 360mm rad
And bought 3xp12 fans
It doesn't fit you lil shit
what the fuck kind of case supports 420 fans but only 360 rad in the exact same place 
Why do you bully me
I just spent 3hrs draining the loop, trying to fit in the rad, and putting the loop back together how it was originaly
because you refuse to use the 420 rad because gLaSsS pAnEL lOoKs bEtTeR 
I BOUGHT YOUR ARCTIC FANS
yes but
MY MAN
what ram do you even have
Corsair RGB ram, not the dominator one
but when you say "The radiator was literally laying ON THE RAM" do you mean radiator touching the ram without fans installed?
Yes
shit
NO SHIT
did not expect
look that case is the size of a house i expected it to fit things
Maybe the 30mm with low profile fans would fit
BUT
I'm not buying another rad
I gotta try to sell the dang 420mm rad

No
but that's a different problem tho
Noctua makes their 140mm fans in 120mmx150
say if they were legit 140s and not this 120mm nonsense, would they have worked?
Which is dumb as fuxk
Well, 2 out of 3 would have worked, yes
No, I'm not taking the loop out again
good enough 
tbf it was your fault from the beginning when you expected a single 360 to take care of a 3900x and a 3080
if i ever go custom loop i'm putting 2 280s in
Cool for you
yeah it's gonna be cool obviously because 2 280 is enough for basically anything


Yes
Angory sleep
Because i spent 70 bucks on a rad
Instead of buying 3 fans for 15 bucks
you can sell it anyway
Hopefully
sell for the same 70 because you didn't even get to use it
no but wait didn't you want rjebait in the front?
What
why get regular black fans then
No
you have nice
rgb fans in the front rn
ok good

i had my own issues with noctua fans
well, not the fans specifically, but these clips that you use to attach fans to a heatsink
these didn't work with unifans because of the daisychain tabs so i had to use zipties 
reminds me of another time when had to use zipties to attach a noctua fan to a noctua heatsink that already had a noctua fan attached
noctua 
Sorry for being upsetti
Just the utter waste of time
And the fact that it got denied by stupid shit
Is upsetting
Buy a new case 
Buy flowers
Fixed discord mobile
No ginormous nitro gifting button to be found?!
What is this, old version, against ToS version, new update?
What im looking at @fervent granite
I neeeeeed this back without downgrading app or breaking ToS
Nah I just went in the app’s container and deleted the button’s resource icon 

:tos:

Rip fishy
This modify the app's files?
Would not use or post about if so https://twitter.com/discord/status/1042341021273743360?lang=en
Oh I remembered that the iphone still doesn't have a real dark mode like Android
Discord could fix this issue by just letting us save custom CSS to a file and load on startup, you can already access everything anyways
I mean all it does is gives it a different colour 
Or just give us native customisation options
Native customization without nitro paywall pls
Here are some links which one is better?

https://www.newegg.ca/abs-ala265/p/N82E16883360179?Item=N82E16883360179
I really want to buy one and I'm a bit confused and worried
This one seems good do I buy? https://www.newegg.ca/abs-ali559/p/N82E16883360189
too high imo
wait for sale/put sale sites in your notifs feed
also this place doesn't suck too bad when they post prebuiltshttps://www.reddit.com/r/bapcsalescanada/
Yep it's about 200$ over in worst case scenario @brave field https://pcpartpicker.com/list/8nt4y4
I'm kind of desperate; it's hard to find a good graphics card nowadays
Canadian Newegg but US PCPP 
I'm pepega
So that price is still good in worst case scenario
It adds up to 1800 CAD
which part? the GPU?
So Cookie in Canada only Bestbuy distributes the card pretty much
Only looking for Founder's? Or have the other retailers just stopped?
Others god knows what they do. and for that you have to camp near a bestbuy since 5-6am
Then you can get a card 3060ti or 3070 for about 650-1000 dollars
And they often don't even have the founders edition, they have EVGA, MSI, Asus and mostly low hash rate cards
Chances of getting a card from those stores for about at least 20 days from now is basically near zero
ah
And others are like ebay bids at 1000-1100, Amazon for 1100-1200 (1-2 options with 50$ shipping extra), or a prebuilt
3060ti with 1080p?
Yep
I'm sure it will perform better in games compared to the last laptop, and I saved 100$
delivery time?
5 days to a week
oh nice!
That seems like a lot for that setup
Do you have any alternative? (that's including the monitor)
Isnt that like a $200 monitor
250CAD yep
On second thought, not terribly too much
Been seeing comparable prebuilts for ~$1300
I couldn't find any
I even built a list to check if the price is fine, it's ok I think -> https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/fFssqp
the 1800 number checks out
Bunch of them popping up on /r/buildapcsales, the lower priced ones usually dont last long
same company, less ssd + shipping + customs tax = even more than this 1800CAD
newegg.ca has only a few of these
It's mind boggling that there are still 3600/1660 rigs priced over $1k
It is what it is 🤷♂️ there is definitely demand for them
This was my cheapest decent option - - also thinking about it, this PC is gonna be better than that Alienware M15 R6 I returned (11800H + 3070 laptop) - - the CPU itself not really, but overall better gaming experience.
Come to Indonesia 
Thats typical price
Also, 248Q is kinda basic, keep it at 144 ive heard a lot of ghosting complains in 165 mode.
I'm gonna run it on 144 ofcourse
what do I do if it ghosts on me?
i need a table for that
my table is too squarish
I live here.
What happened to fishy
Only for you <3
@lost fossil put in the damn Noctua fans on top for now, lil extra airflow
Will add the new fans behind the rad on tuesday
Then cry if temps didn't change


i don't have screws okay
Will tell them that u stole the screws
i need a laptop under 1200 cad 
Gaming?
@lost fossiltheres a v2 of the 420mm rad...which is 6mm shorter...which would mean it could fit
imma see how temps are with the new fans are
before buying another rad

eberything
why don't you talk 🥺 😭

Dell G15 with 3050ti for 1100 cad
hmm send link
because i took the information in and processed it 
Do not buy Dell from Dell itself, I repeat don't
When you have a problem their answer is like this most of the time:
We understand your concerns, I spoke to the technical professionals, it seems what you are experiencing is perfectly normal and there is nothing to be worry about.
According to our extensive testing there is no problem, there will be no problem ever, doesn't matter what you say you pepega. --Dell
Meanwhile your laptop might be burning in flames
okay 🥺
i managed to scram all my boxes of pc parts in the box of the case :D
intense real life tetris
broooo that geforce
id def give that a hard sheesh
sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh
Thank
1080ti even beats a 3060 if you're not doing raytracing.
yeah but the problem is, the more a computer system is used (like graphics card) more errors it has over time or less clock rate. bloated capacitors are not uncommon
i thought that only applied to those old capacitors that run on printer toner
not really, all capacitors die eventually, and when they get close to death you can see them bloating on top a bit
Im confused over the corsair commander core and commander pro, since the H150i Elite Capellix comes with a commander core, im not required to get a commander pro, but whats the difference if i have 9 fans in total that i need to link up?
Like how many times and how often do the errors happen
And how many uses?
I don't know really. they taught us that in university
I assume over 500
At least
Takes a while tho Right?
Yeah a few years after production
This is not just for capacitors
1080ti has been out like 4 years
I'd bet if something is going to go on a GPU it'll be a mosfet before a cap
They taught us something like this back then in the uni https://www.beningo.com/understanding-embedded-system-failure-rates/
The more a hardware device is used, more likely some of its parts start to fail and after its intended lifetime it fails exponentially
Now the more interesting part is let me give you an example
This is a durable capacitor -> http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/59460.pdf
5000 hours under load at 105 degrees a bit more under lower temps but still it's not much
Dam
electrolytic capacitor

Fuck no.
Get ceramic capacitor. This is 2021 not 2001.
Not really that different
err
Weird seeing this discussion about GPUs that have barely been out 5 years when there are entire PCs that still work under 15-20 years of 24/7 uptime
of course failure becomes more common, and 15-20 of 24/7 uptime isn't guaranteed, but a 1080ti? That's still fresh
My schools computers are like 4000 years old
at least theres like 2 carts full of macbooks
in my school
Depends on the load of that computer and its components
The 5000 hours is for full load on a component
Also I really doubt there is a consumer computer running for 15-20 years without any redundant chips sooner or later parts degrade.
If that was the case, electronic repair shops (such as yours) would have been all bankrupt
Anecdote so it doesn't mean too much, but the PC got its first extended period of downtime last month, when its drive finally died.
Hardware failures still seem SUPER rare for anything from the past decade though
All RNG.
A lot of what electronic repair shops deal with is TVs with terrible and cheap parts, Dell prebuilt hard drives, which seem to come dying out of the box, physical damage like drops or water damage, software issues, ram reseats, etc.
So the thing is some of your faulty vrms on a gpu board degrade
They won't bring it to you right? and the card will still somehow work
It's failing but not entirely the performance is not at its highest point
That said, GPU caps blowing has been the most common I've seen
Its highest point being above stock, yes?
No meaning the original output
Like when the board is brand new out of factory with no time being in the shelf
Because on top of lifespan, there is a shelf life for components
I remember my last PC back in my country (4 years old) worked with bloated capacitors and an incompatible nvidia dual channel ram which was intended for 1.5V but nowhere near its original state; people don't feel the need to repair these kinds of boards maybe
That damage, fair
yet to see many resources stating below stock, but have read quite a lot about not being able to OC as much and keep stability after enough use
Well you can test some of the cards and parts if you have the right tools
It's gonna be a headache finding info on each part though
Gtx 1080ti i7 7700k or i7 8700k rtx 2060
Hmm do you have to?
What happened to your 3600 2060 order?
I've just bought a pc for 1550 usd
10400f 3060 ti and a monitor 165hz
It's on the way but I can cancel it at any time so I'm looking at other PCs @brave field
Is it brand new?
The one I ordered?
Yes
It's brand new
Never used
Buy it dude all I said was for used computers
How much?
It's 800 euros
Ryzen 3600 rtx 2060
What about 1080ti
It was used twice or three times
Hmm not sure how true that is
Go with ryzen
And where i live,3060ti alone costs 1700
hell yeah where do you live?
Ind

Where i live gtx 1060 6gb costs 300-400 if not more

3050 vs 3060?
Is there vast difference or just slightly??
ngl i never regarded 50 class gpus as worthwhile but a 3050 would be definitely better than a 1060 which is a solid card ngl
so looking from that point of view i'd say 3050 can be enough depending on the games you play
3060 is too 📈
GUYS HOW DO I ADD A NEGATIVE TO A POSITIVE!!!!
-3 + 4 = 1
what's the point of using the absolute value of -3?
idk

laptop minimum 60 yeah the 3050TI is ok I guess for business people who wanna have a laptop that can do a little bit of league of legends or dota2 and maybe cs:go and other not so demanding games
Like laptop 3060 1080p is perfect, 3070 1440p is perfect too
All I have is a laptop with a Pentium dual core at 1Ghz
I upgraded my graphics card today
what to?
what were you on to begin with
Some shit card with no fan
damn
My friend strapped a fan to it by zipties
GTA runs really nice for the quality of graphics it provides
I run everything on low
I can max out GTA V settings on a GTX 1650 SUPER, which isn't even super high end
thats all averaging around 144 fps
its great, compare that to Warzone and i'll struggle to get 60 fps on low settings
I'm pretty certain it's more rooted to the CPU than the GPU
but there are so many great games out there that you can run a GT 1030 on
I don't really know
the quality of a game isn't defined by its graphics
Tried cs go and that was too much
im surprised cs was too much for a 1030, what CPU are you rocking?
ah
Gta is unique by the open world and the social aspect
right. Personally, I prefer 3D survival games but right now im playing Hades
Hades is a mixture between 2D and 3D, technically its 3D but it can feel sort of 2D at times because it's played from and isometric perspective
It looks beautiful but I can't imagine its that graphically intensive
How much it cost
or take for example another one of my favourite games, Hollow Knight. An open world 2D game
Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler that combines the best aspects of Supergiant's critically acclaimed titles, including the fast-paced action of Bastion, the rich atmosphere and depth of Transistor, and the character-driven storytelling of Pyre.BATTLE OUT OF HELLAs the immortal Prince of the Underworld, you'll wield the powers and m...

Kinda pricy for me
Hades is a one-of-a-kind experience that sets the bar for fully utilizing the medium of video games that should be experienced by all -- if they're up to the challenge.
Review on PC by Nick Limon. Also available on Nintendo Switch.
Maybe get it one day on sale
same here, i normally pick them up at christmas
and again another one of my favourite games, terraria. You could probably run the game on a potato and is a beautiful and fun 2D survival/story game
its also relativity cheap

these 3 games I have mention can all be ran on a GT 1030
Yhat one i was actually considering it
Terraria 
Just got informed by PC order got cancelled 😐
Still don't know why
Trying to find a better PC rn
Wru from?
Croatia
Is amazon germany ok for you?
or Amazon italy is better?
Italy
Its better cause Italy is way closer n stuff

Nothing really catches my mind
I already found one on my home website
👍
But 7700k + 1080ti is very old
1080ti is still better than a 2060 right?
Yep but the CPU is too old, you can't really upgrade anything in it
The 2060 one is brand new never used
It's good, but it's good as is and will be good as it is
Then you have to change it in a year or two
What about the Ryzen 3600 and rtx 2060
that's not too bad but why not get a better one from Amazon?
Can't really find anything
Budget is 800-900 euros
1k dollars
The 1080TI is great actually if it's not broken in any way
If you have some money for repairs later saved somewhere you should get that one
Ask for part out, if possible
"Hello sir, how much for GPU alone?" + generic 10400F rest of the PC
On which one
Can't ask for it alone
Only full pc
So which one should I get out of those 2
I'm thinking the Ryzen 3600 rtx 2060
5600G
5600G + a good ram + that 1080 is perfect
It would be perfect if you could just buy monitor + graphics card
That computer will run without these with no problems whatsoever and he can sell that to a business or something
7700k has integrated graphics inside
It has 16gb of ram
Is that bad orr
1080 or the other one? I think 1080TI is good, just pay for repairs a little when it comes the time.
1080
Wdym repairs
man, it really isn't all that myguy
Repairs, changing resistors and capacitors and etc when it comes the time
When's the time like 2-3 years
Are we back on unrealistic expectations of GPU service life again
censored TLD

anyways 1080ti is likely fine, and will not need repair for a while
Say something dot R and U
lol
I'd take it to an outdoor range tbh.
Yeah, dont bother.
Its dead, definitely.
Perfect target practice at an outdoor shooting range.
What I do with my dead parts.
I thought so, it's one of my buddy's drives and he keeps trying to figure out a way to save it
I'd tell him this:
I would recommend intel than AMD
AMD prices have been fucked up lately
Intel 1X400F lineup is really crushing
11600KF + Z590 or I walk
280$ 5600X 
The reason Intel is even winning is because of GPU shortage honestly
Not really
@steep raptor when u coming ?
Oh wow but the 11400f is like 150$
You got igpu you can use as video output till you get a new GPU 
but a decent B560 board costs 130$ too
10400f is really cheap
I dont think you wanma go under 100$ with any brand
Mobo
Other than if you running like athlon or something
Oh yes
It comes with it own cooler too
how tables have turned
Ryzen 5 costing 200$+ is like a win for intel
All their I5 XX400F are under 180$
They have 12gen coming and i dont think the MSRP wont change
AMD 1st gen of gaining performance advantage was like greed mode full
Reminder than the 5.2Ghz 10 core I9 10850K costs 350$
Thats 50$ above the 5600X
Cus u need an expensive board and cooler to achieve the 5.2ghz
And once again ghz is not a scale for performance.
Also prices are different from a place to another.
extra 250 bucks for extra performance 
who uses stock cooler if ur running an amd build
Because even a D15 gonna melt when you OC that far
pathetic 
me
I used stock cooler for a long time
Besides any cheap 30$ can handle it good
Meanwhile intel 
Why cheap 30$ cooler when you can undervolt it and keep that 30$
You can spend it on 3 copies of Gris on sale 
Or Pcars 2
With the 30$ u can max you PBO settings basically an overclock
I had a ryzen 1600 and overclocked it to 4ghz with a stock cooler 
PBO overclock is possible stock with undervolts
And if youre on 3000 and 5000 series
Youll hit it low quite easily
I saw a guy on reddit, he ate thermal paste
Preety sure he won't be suffering from high temperature in future

I have a big problem! I was watching anime dao at an anime and I know that there you have to somehow select from which source you are looking
by episode 6 it didn't work very well so I changed the source
and gave me a site that at first told me that I had the device infected by a virus and finally told me to leave that site at my own risk
then I stopped the applications I had open and when I went back on chorme me but on the same site only it was a white page with google with a countdown
a red countdown
although up there at the web address the site wrote the name of that site so I don't think it was google
then I deleted all the history and cookies
and when I went to BitDefender or gave a scan at the end it told me it couldn't be done because I didn't have internet (but I did)
after restarting the tablet and when I started scanning again he scanned and said that everything is fine
and I didn't download anything from that site and I didn't give it any permission
daor I pressed and put me there and he showed me that
can anyone help me explain this better?
Yeah, one of those stupid scareware.
Clear up your cookies and remember to stop fucking pirating anime.

I didn't hack anything, I was a on chorme
Pirating*
but what about that? I asked a friend what was going on and he said it would be an advertisement
yes it is a scare ads
just, ignore it.
Jesus
youre overreacting.
And i mean, stop illegally fucking streaming anime.

Using chrome to pirate is legal?
poggers
can this be called illegal ?!
Im asking you
but then where I can see the anime legally
???
No of corse
uh
Stop pirating hentai
Okok
From how you speak the only animated show you should watch is fucking Caillou.
Man, understand I'm a little scared and it's normal not to hit all the words
Do u have an adblocker?
Nope
i mean you probably should have one
Get one then
Playstore?
It probably protects better than your antivirus

Playstore 
as if thats going to matter 
Pin pls
but what does a pin have to do with your history
i dont mind
thanks for the help guys
Will cutting my brain in half reduce my cringe reaction to anything
oh shit
this isnt google search bar
claire go see a doc
what do you mean

nothing, nothing.
ok have a great day!
Uh, is there a windows 12 already?
The new Win11 is so nice dude
One more thing
How did he know what name I put to the device?
Related to the discussion earlier
Those things are sent to the internet too
as a mean to track your browsing behavior, are you more mobile or on desktop?
or do it right (like me
)
Fuck sake crunchyroll sub is like 8$ a month 
Or just. Don't watch anime
Us F1 fans pay fuckin 15$ a month just to watch a fuckin race.
K I sleep now. Gn Claire

Ok but the"? " from end?

@kindred temple @supple walrus why are you boats
because that's their thing 

Hello my computer current have 2+4GB ram
It comes with 4 slots so can I add an extra 4GB to make it 10GB ram?
2+4 is not that good
would be better to buy a 4 to replace the 2
would be 2gb less but they'd be able to run in dual channel which is faster
If you ever wonder what programming language should you use for competitive programming, prefer any language but not Python
Python is worst imo
Depends on what you're doing. Python is great for learning the fundamentals, but lackluster with performance.
Exactly
Could someone help me with something that’s happening with my Xbox?
Nowadays performance is major concern
