#

yeah

strange glacier
#

but if you dont like it ill dispose of it just mail it to me (:

acoustic trout
#

anyways i dont think i need that much of a graphics card

#

a mx150 or 250 would do

#

nothing fancy

thorny delta
#

eh

#

blender requires ALOT of graphic power

#

I have a pre order on the RTX 3090 for blender

acoustic trout
#

not really

strange glacier
#

geforce now cannot be used with blender

thorny delta
#

10GB Vram is easily reached

acoustic trout
#

depends on what you do with blender

#

i just model low poly stuff

thorny delta
#

photo realistic 8K still renders

acoustic trout
#

nothing serious or whatever

thorny delta
#

high poly

#

ah ok

acoustic trout
#

its a hobby

#

yk what i mean

thorny delta
#

yeah for me aswel, I only do still renders

acoustic trout
#

yeah renders

#

i dont do that stuff

thorny delta
#

Low poly just get a fast GPU

acoustic trout
#

crashes my laptop to hell and back

#

lmao

thorny delta
#

yeah thats why I would suggest a high end GPU if you want to do that

strange glacier
#

minecraft almost crashes my laptop

thorny delta
#

but ofcourse if you dont want to do realistic sutff its overkill

acoustic trout
#

yeah

thorny delta
#

low poly requires almost no power

acoustic trout
#

exactly

#

i run fine on my intel hd 620 graphics

thorny delta
#

LoL runs on 30 FPS on my max spec macbook pro lol

acoustic trout
#

and 8gb ram

thorny delta
#

without eGPU ^

#

with eGPU 150-200

acoustic trout
#

i can run lol on max graphics 60fps on my $500 dell

strange glacier
#

i run minecraft at 48 fps low 1080p on uhd 620

thorny delta
#

yeah mac games are badly optimized

acoustic trout
#

i can even run arma on highest graphic settings on 60fps

#

probably the same with any other game

strange glacier
#

biggest issue is thermal constraints on my laptop

acoustic trout
#

macs are not made for gaming lmfao

#

yeah^

thorny delta
#

@acoustic trout I would wait till black friday and get a razer blade with 2070 or 2060

acoustic trout
#

the os is literally tuned for productivity

thorny delta
#

yes

#

but sometimes I like to play a game in between study blocks

acoustic trout
#

@thorny delta only problem is i need it by match

#

march*

strange glacier
#

blackfriday is in like 2 weeks...

thorny delta
#

it is november right now

#

black friday is this month

#

lol

acoustic trout
#

oh

#

LOL

#

mb im dumb

#

bruh

#

yeah sorry its like 3am rn

#

and my brain isn’t functioning properly

thorny delta
#

np

acoustic trout
#

but i wont be returning to the us until december or so

#

so if i order something on black friday, id probably get one of my friends to get it for me

#

and pick it up in december

#

but right now im debating between razer blade 15, asus zenbook, and dell xps 15

#

they all look good

#

those are all high end flagship laptops

#

yeah

#

and you said you're only doing schoolwork and geforce now?

#

yep

#

yeah

#

that doesn't sound right

#

might seem like overkill but

strange glacier
#

tbh an acer swift 3 has an octacore and is kinda appealing

#

only 8gb ram tho

acoustic trout
#

i run a bunch of stuff at once

#

and its just

#

too much for my laptop

#

i cant watch youtube and have discord on at the same time

#

or else my laptop just freezes

thorny delta
#

I think those laptops are perfect

acoustic trout
#

yes

#

except for the fact that razer is like 1.5 times more expensive

thorny delta
#

the cheap razer blades 15 inch are a great deal on sale

#

for 1600 euro you get an i7, 16gb ram and rtx 2060

#

with 144hz screen

acoustic trout
#

how much is that in dollars

#

$1800

#

yeah that actually isnt bad

smoky radish
#

the screen is usually the expensive crap here

acoustic trout
#

ill just wait for black friday

#

id really prefer if the laptops had touchscreens

#

but i guess you cant fit all that into a 15 inch laptop

thorny delta
#

No its probably $1600 in your country

#

in europe we pay 21% vat on all products

#

US is alot lower I believe

acoustic trout
#

im in sk rn

thorny delta
#

sk?

acoustic trout
#

south korea

thorny delta
#

oh ok

acoustic trout
#

temporarily

#

and theres like a 15 or 20% tax on everything above $600

thorny delta
#

If you didn't use blender I would say an iPad Pro or air would also be nice

acoustic trout
#

i prefer windows

thorny delta
#

yeah its 21% on everything here

#

RTX 3080 is 850-1000 euro

acoustic trout
#

jesus

thorny delta
#

socialism !

acoustic trout
#

lmao

#

but yeah

#

idk

#

ill just wait for black friday

#

also what do u think about running games on high end workstation laptops

#

why dont people just do that instead

smoky radish
#

uh

#

small screen

#

and if u hook one up u destroy a point of a laptop

acoustic trout
#

do u need a big screen

#

i run games just fine on my 15 inch

smoky radish
#

how much is it?

acoustic trout
#

$500

#

no it was like

smoky radish
#

the laptop?

acoustic trout
#

$700 or so

#

yeah

#

laptop touchscreens are so bad they're useless

#

and i dont have any problems 99% of the time

smoky radish
#

for that price i built my first gaming pc, bc if something breaks u can easily replace

#

and my eyes get fricked from small screen

acoustic trout
#

i need a laptop

#

because of school

strange glacier
#

laughs in 13inch @smoky radish

acoustic trout
#

well ive been playing on 15-17 inch screens my entire life

#

so idk lmao

#

personally i think its smarter to buy geforce now premium rather than invest a lot of money on a solid gaming laptop

#

because unless you buy like a $4000+ laptop you wont be able to run games on max graphics

smoky radish
#

I really dont like small screen tbh. I want to be able to take a certain distance to my screen as I have real eye pain

#

mhm

#

and then when it breaks

acoustic trout
#

but with geforce now you can run everything on max graphics

#

for what

smoky radish
#

replacing is quite hard (in central europe for sure)

acoustic trout
#

$15 per month

#

yeah i feel you @smoky radish

smoky radish
#

you got good internet?

acoustic trout
#

yep

#

arguably the fastest in the world

smoky radish
#

then it should work

acoustic trout
#

there we go

#

yeah i guess its only possible because im in sk

#

id invest in a gaming pc if i had enough money but the problem is i dont

smoky radish
#

mmm fifth place

acoustic trout
#

sucks to suck

#

😎

#

anyways

#

Razer Blade 15 Gaming Laptop 2019: Intel Core i7-9750H 6 Core, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660Ti, 15.6 FHD 1080p 60Hz, 16GB RAM, 128GB SSD + 1TB, CNC Aluminum, Chroma RGB Lighting, Thunder

#

this is what im looking at right now

strange glacier
#

thats pretty cool but 60hz is kinda bad

acoustic trout
#

yeah id prefer 144

#

but i cant find any

#

Razer Blade 15 Base Gaming Laptop 2020: Intel Core i7-10750H 6-Core, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060, 15.6" FHD 1080p 144Hz, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, CNC Aluminum, Chroma RGB Lighting, Thunderbolt 3, Black

#

maybe this?

strange glacier
#

oof 200 shipping yikes

acoustic trout
#

Razer Blade 15 Base Gaming Laptop 2020: Intel Core i7-10750H 6-Core, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, 15.6" FHD 1080p 144Hz, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, CNC Aluminum, Chroma RGB Lighting, Thunderbolt 3, Black

#

what about this one

strange glacier
#

pretty good, storage might be a problem tho

acoustic trout
#

what if i used an external hard drive

strange glacier
#

external would be really slow unless you use thunderbolt 3

acoustic trout
#

man idk honestly

#

right now the only options for 512gb are the

#

rtx 2060s

#

512gb and gtx 1660 isnt there

#

so once i choose 512, i gotta go with rtx 2060

#

which skyrockets the price

strange glacier
#

you could replace the ssd...

acoustic trout
#

i have no idea how to do that

#

and i really dont want to break the laptop

strange glacier
#

it has a regular m.2 slot

acoustic trout
#

so do i just buy a ssd

#

and like

#

screw it in

strange glacier
#

i guess, but idk how to transfer windows

acoustic trout
#

yeah

strange glacier
#

i think just clean install or smth

#

windows key is stored on mobo or smth

acoustic trout
#

how does the 1660 ti handle?

#

ive never used it before

#

only 1650s

strange glacier
#

its a mobile chip so idk

#

there are reviews about the mobile chips tho

acoustic trout
#

ill check that out for sure

#

you know, i was thinking about getting a msi gf75 or something similar

#

it seemed pretty cheap for the specs

languid minnow
#

Instead of bothering and wasting your internet and loosing a solid performance just buy a good gaming laptop

acoustic trout
#

no

#

i really want a razer

#

for many reasons

#

like

#

design is very hot

#

its very compact

#

so is macbook

#

is that it

#

what

#

macbook doesnt

#

have good specs do they

#

m1???

#

they just released new macs 3 days ago

#

expensiv

#

cheaper than razer blade

#

better battery life

#

how mych

#

much

#

link pls

#

blade starts at 1600

#

macbook air late 2020 starts at 999\

#

18 hours of battery life is kinda insane

#

wait

#

and its silent

#

no fan

chilly ibex
#

three hours what is that when gaming or literally browsing

acoustic trout
#

just browsing

chilly ibex
#

yikes

acoustic trout
#

ur saying a macbook can handle gaming

#

just like a razer

#

you said you're doing geforce now

#

at like half the cost

#

that uses like zero resources

#

yes!!!

#

blades value is not good

#

no geforce now is an exception here ok

#

yes i know im in it cuz its sexy af

#

we don't know m1 benchmarks yet

#

but apple usually doesn't lie

#

they just dance around things

#

and they didn't do that here

#

highly skeptical

faint quartz
#

if i set my desktop resolution different to my monitor like if i have 1080p monitor and i set to 1440p there will just be more pixels and the screen will get smaller right? So if I do that and set my game resolution 10 1440p will my resolution work that way?

acoustic trout
#

isk

#

🤷🏾‍♂️

#

idk

#

@acoustic trout macbook sucks !!

#

why

#

have you ever used one

#

mac is poop

strange glacier
#

macbook is great but it doesnt look great for gaming

acoustic trout
#

have you ever used one???

strange glacier
#

ive only used one in a best buy, they look really nice tho

acoustic trout
#

mac bad !!!!!!!!!

strange glacier
#

the OS was kinda ugly but big sur looks nice

acoustic trout
#

"mac bad" "I've never owned or used a mac" ratirl

#

NPC moment

chilly ibex
#

mac bad because apple bad amirite

acoustic trout
#

lmao

#

YES 🙌

#

MAC IS BAD

#

!!!!!1!!1

#

go and buy a razer blade

#

but thats 600 dollars more for worse performance and you'll need to replace it in a few years

#

what gpu does mac use again

strange glacier
#

if you arent gaming mac is great

acoustic trout
#

m1

#

m1 is an SOC

#

not designed for gaming

#

is it

#

and?

#

Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at millions of colors and:
One external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz

#

60hz 🤮

strange glacier
#

bruhv

acoustic trout
#

not gonna look at 6k ratirl

strange glacier
#

nothing is going to run 6k at 60hz...

#

thats just a measure of the bandwidth, not the max res and max refresh rate

acoustic trout
#

besides

#

noone knows precise specs for the m1

#

so idk what anyone would expect

#

like i said

#

nbm

#

apple hasn't lied before

#

nvm

#

While the Apple M1 comes with a frequency of 1.80 GHz, the i7 tops at 2.30 GHz. The single-core Turbo power which plays a big part in the chip's and the performance of the entire device is lacking in M1 too, clocking in at just 3.10 GHz, as compared to the monstrous 5.1 GHz of i7. Besides this, the All Cores Turbo power of M1 comes a little close to i7's 3.21 GHz with 3.10 GHz.

#

where is that written

#

looks like some indian tech website

#

not sure where they found clock speeds

#

because they're not written anywhere

#

looks like cap to me

#

maybe

#

I give up

#

you're too stubborn

languid minnow
#

Macbook in overpriced like razer i think

acoustic trout
#

600 dollars cheaper

#

mac isnt for gaming

broken ginkgo
#

I think that the M1 will be a great chip as long as you arent gaming on mac (even tho most people arent)

languid minnow
#

But razer is for gaming at least

acoustic trout
#

razer is built for gaming

#

"for gaming" doesn't mean anything

#

mac isnt

#

it does

#

thats literally just marketing

broken ginkgo
#

yea its just marketing

languid minnow
#

Bruh no one games on mac

acoustic trout
#

and?>

languid minnow
#

Thats all

#

😂😂

acoustic trout
#

even if mac had better specs than any windows laptop

#

i still wont use it

#

mac os bad

languid minnow
#

I just think mac is overpriced too it got nothing very speical but a price of a gaming laptop

broken ginkgo
#

Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at millions of colors and:
One external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz
@acoustic trout People use macs for like photoshop and content creation and the retina displays do a great job at colors and all of that so for apple it isn't a problem just sticking to 60hz on their laptops/desktops

languid minnow
#

Yeah the monitor is so great

acoustic trout
#

yes so it isnt for gaming is it

broken ginkgo
#

you can game on macs but i cant say itll be the best experience

acoustic trout
#

exactly

#

u can

#

but u wont be able to get the same performance ud get from a gaming laptop

languid minnow
#

The exact same thing for razer

#

So why do you want to buy a blade

acoustic trout
#

yea

broken ginkgo
#

the gaming part of any computer/peripheral is marketing

acoustic trout
#

design

broken ginkgo
#

if it has gaming in the title or description its marketing

acoustic trout
#

design 90%

#

to me@personally the only laptop that is as beautiful as the blade is the dell xps

broken ginkgo
#

gaming laptop = laptop with top tier specs or a good design

acoustic trout
#

and xps just isnt it

languid minnow
#

Just buy what ever you want

acoustic trout
#

and it has reliably issues

broken ginkgo
#

but you could also call that a top of the line laptop

strange glacier
#

nah gaming laptop = laptop with sharp angles and blaring lights @broken ginkgo

languid minnow
#

No one can stop you

broken ginkgo
#

that too

acoustic trout
#

yes

broken ginkgo
#

but again its just marketing

#

razer pressed the big red button on gaming marketing

acoustic trout
#

not to mention apple used recycled materials

#

uses

strange glacier
#

what about recycled

acoustic trout
#

i dont like

broken ginkgo
#

why not

acoustic trout
#

im sure it wont affect anything but

broken ginkgo
#

thats a good thing

acoustic trout
#

idk

broken ginkgo
#

it helps the environment

strange glacier
#

its helping the enviroment

acoustic trout
#

YES I DO KNOW THAT

#

caps

strange glacier
#

its not like they take an old shell and plunk it into your laptop

languid minnow
#

Iphone 12 adapter was a meme tho

acoustic trout
#

but i wont feel so good using laptops made out of recycled stuff

#

@languid minnow yes

broken ginkgo
#

its pretty much the exact same as if it had fresh non recycled materials lmao

languid minnow
#

Just go buy razer

#

Dont make it religious

broken ginkgo
#

woo

acoustic trout
#

apple keeps saying environment friendly and whatever

broken ginkgo
#

carbon neutral by 2030 i think they said

acoustic trout
#

when they literally made the iphone 12 unrepairable by non apple repairers

#

words are just words

broken ginkgo
#

true but then once the parts get thrown out or the phone they recycle it

#

but it is stupid

#

i am for right to repair

acoustic trout
#

i like apple products but im never buying a mac

#

pls no

broken ginkgo
#

yea im never buying a mac

acoustic trout
#

i own a 11 myself

languid minnow
#

With covid around you dont need a laptop but a pc

acoustic trout
#

and its actually really nice

amber cloak
#

hello friends

acoustic trout
#

@languid minnow we go to school just like any other day without covid

amber cloak
#

anyone know if its possible to find custom macros

broken ginkgo
#

i own a 10 decided not to upgrade to the 11 because screen and build quality

acoustic trout
#

everything is open

broken ginkgo
#

might upgrade to the 12

acoustic trout
#

@broken ginkgo i used a 7 for forever

#

until it broke doen

#

down

languid minnow
#

Here everything is closed lmao

charred ice
#

I'll stick with my S20 FE 5G

broken ginkgo
#

rip

acoustic trout
#

now that I rarely game anymore I think a macbook would suit me well

languid minnow
#

Paladin ma boy

acoustic trout
#

stuck around with me for a while though

#

it depends on how well it performs when people get their hands on it

languid minnow
#

Samsung the best

broken ginkgo
#

ok idk about THAT

acoustic trout
#

they said 8k prores stream playback in resolve without missing a frame

#

which is

#

samsung poop

#

insane

#

my computer can barely do 4k h.264 30fps playback on 1/8th quality

#

in premiere

charred ice
#

The iPhone is a bust for me because it doesn't have a desktop display mode over hdmi

broken ginkgo
#

true

acoustic trout
#

u need one?

broken ginkgo
#

im kinda stuck in the ecosystem with everything except a mac

charred ice
#

Back when I had my Lumia 950 the main feature I used was Continuum

acoustic trout
#

i mean

#

apple products are nice

#

but

#

mac isnt my thing

broken ginkgo
#

same

charred ice
#

And Samsung DeX replicates Continuum

broken ginkgo
#

my friend bought a macbook air and i was kinda sad cause i was trying to convince him to build a computer

acoustic trout
#

the only time i liked samsung over apple

broken ginkgo
#

which wouldve been better for him

acoustic trout
#

was when i was a kid

#

it depends on what you do

#

and that was cuz u could “hack” games

#

on samsung

#

without messing the os up

#

bruh

languid minnow
#

My friend bought a mac book pro now he's regreting it
He bought it beacuse it was beautiful

acoustic trout
#

im serious

#

macbooks aren't good value

#

until now

#

no flagship laptops are good value

languid minnow
#

Legion 7i

#

Is a good one

broken ginkgo
#

the m1 mac mini seems like a pretty good deal

acoustic trout
#

1k for pitiful performance

#

not the legion

#

the mac mini seems like a pretty good deal
actually tho

#

only 700 dollars

charred ice
#

I do want a MacBook Pro

acoustic trout
#

same for video editing

#

i want to buy a chromebook

#

like a cheap compact one

charred ice
#

Don't expect a Chromebook to perform like a Windows machine.

acoustic trout
#

yes

#

of course

languid minnow
#

But laptops kinda suck
Desktop are the best value

broken ginkgo
#

even with geforce now itll still not be the best experience

#

i mean desktops arent really portable though

acoustic trout
#

@languid minnow yes but some people have no choice but to buy laptops

#

exactly

charred ice
#

The reason I need a laptop is for portability.

acoustic trout
#

@broken ginkgo yeah im looking to run google docs and slides on the chromebook

#

not gonna do any gaming there

languid minnow
#

Yeah i have to buy one for school works sadly

broken ginkgo
#

oh well that you should be good with a bit of lag

charred ice
#

Unless you're telling me to haul a full desktop rig on a bus 3 times a week on public transport.

acoustic trout
#

it prolly cant run anything other than roblox probably

#

@charred ice yes please

#

put it in a suitcase

#

a cheap chromebook can barely even use chrome

charred ice
#

I did it once... for a LAN event, it was hellish

broken ginkgo
#

chromebook no chrome just book

acoustic trout
#

i know a friend who has a ps4 in his van

broken ginkgo
#

wha-

acoustic trout
#

pretty nice and comfy

#

yeah

languid minnow
#

Hate controllers

acoustic trout
#

but u cant really play while driving

#

gets you dizzy real quick

languid minnow
#

Yeah dont do that

#

You'll die for real

acoustic trout
#

no like

#

playing while

#

the car is moving

#

not playing while driving simultaneously lmfao

languid minnow
#

How your're gonna turn it on

charred ice
#

Imagine doing VR in a moving van

languid minnow
#

And a television

chilly ibex
#

acoustic trout
#

Imagine doing VR in a moving van
🤢

broken ginkgo
#

lowkey wanna try the vr in a car

acoustic trout
#

#

its a g wagon

#

so it has enough space and all

languid minnow
#

Imagine playing vr girlfriend with your girlfriend

acoustic trout
#

lmao

charred ice
#

imagine doing vr at all haha poor club
@chilly ibex laughs in Dell Visor

strange glacier
#

@acoustic trout youve done vr in a car?

acoustic trout
#

also did fortnite come back to apple yey

#

no

#

chilly ibex
#

imma buy a cheap vr headset

#

acoustic trout
#

use google cardboard

chilly ibex
#

I just wanna play hla

#

no

broken ginkgo
#

lmao

strange glacier
#

oculus quest 2 time @chilly ibex

acoustic trout
#

yes

chilly ibex
#

hmm

broken ginkgo
#

i had google cardboard at one point it was pure shit of course

chilly ibex
#

I will check it out

acoustic trout
#

google cardboard lmao

#

lmao

charred ice
#

My best friend has an Oculus Quest, great budget friendly option.

languid minnow
#

I heard a good vr headset is 700

broken ginkgo
#

I have an oculus quest 2 its pretty nice

acoustic trout
#

trackir?

charred ice
#

I want the Valve Index though.

acoustic trout
#

the new quest is supposed to be good

strange glacier
#

i have a great headset but for some reason it sits on my desk and it wont strap on my head

acoustic trout
#

i need a new headset too

strange glacier
#

it has a keyboard built in, kinda cool ngl

acoustic trout
#

my b&o headset wasnt designed for gaming from the start

#

and its broken af now

languid minnow
#

I want a keyboard and a pc if we're showing off our wishlist

acoustic trout
#

which

strange glacier
#

i want a sneki snek

acoustic trout
#

i want one of those nvidia supercomputers

languid minnow
#

hamburger

acoustic trout
#

heard theyre 10k per unit

languid minnow
#

Probably you cant game on them

acoustic trout
#

hamburger

#

u can

#

i tried

chilly ibex
#

what

acoustic trout
#

geforce now???

chilly ibex
#

pretty sure that's not using supercomputers

acoustic trout
#

i read an article where it said those were 10k per unit

#

lemme find it

#

depends on what you would consider a supercomputer

languid minnow
#

I just want something for apex legends and stuff a nex gen gpu is more than enough for me

#

Idk what you wanna do with a supercomputer

acoustic trout
#

thats so bad

#

why is there only 16gb ram

chilly ibex
#

Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong term for super computer

#

Can a tesla p40 even game?

acoustic trout
#

24gb vram

chilly ibex
#

That doesn't mean anything

acoustic trout
#

yes it does

#

rtx 3060 is like 12gb vram

strange glacier
#

vram does not equal gaming perf @acoustic trout

#

also the 3070 has like 8gb vram

#

wouldnt make sense for the 3060 to have more

acoustic trout
chilly ibex
#

Why would they ever put those in there

acoustic trout
#

v ram equals productivity performance

#

the more the better

chilly ibex
#

Can you even do anything productive on geforce now?

acoustic trout
#

yeah that test was ran on a server

#

yes

#

you can run basically any game on max graphics

#

i know because i tried it myself

#

but the results are crap

#

solid 60fps isnt “crap”

chilly ibex
#

I mean productive as in photo editing video editing rendering

#

not gaming

acoustic trout
#

for that kinda money

#

no, the apps are limited

#

it is dogshit

#

guys check my question at general need help pls @here

chilly ibex
#

then what's the point

acoustic trout
#

its free?

#

@chilly ibex can u ?

chilly ibex
#

In having that card

strange glacier
#

bro wtf i just had a lag spike lmao

acoustic trout
#

and you can essentially get a $10k pc performance out of a $300 chromebook

broken ginkgo
#

@acoustic trout please be patient

acoustic trout
#

for free

#

thats the point

chilly ibex
#

Sorry I know nothing about keyboards I use a ornata haha @acoustic trout

acoustic trout
#

ah k

#

solid 60fps isnt “crap”
for a 3000 dollar cpu and a 4000 dollar gpu that's garbage ratirl

strange glacier
#

@acoustic trout you only get a 1060 level of perf...

acoustic trout
#

from geforce now?

broken ginkgo
#

I have a 1060 lol

acoustic trout
#

and you can essentially get a $10k pc performance out of a $300 chromebook
uhhhh no.

strange glacier
#

yeah the free plan gives you a vm with whats essentially a 1060

#

premium gets you a 2070 or something

chilly ibex
#

I'm actually really interested on why they would put one of those cards in a service for just gaming

acoustic trout
#

pretty sure the computers are same

#

for free and premium

#

what????

#

its just that premium gets 6x more play time and bypass queue

strange glacier
#

same servers yes but you get more of the resources allocated to you

acoustic trout
#

yeah

#

o

chilly ibex
#

game streaming haha

acoustic trout
#

still

#

its

#

$10

#

per month

#

sounds good to me

strange glacier
#

no string messaging please

chilly ibex
#

remember Onlive

acoustic trout
#

yes ok

chilly ibex
#

Whatever happened to that

strange glacier
#

remember stadia hahahahahaha

acoustic trout
#

stadia is a joke

#

lmao

chilly ibex
#

stadia could've been good tbh

strange glacier
#

thats the point...

acoustic trout
#

but u cant deny the fact that cloud gaming has its own set of advantages

strange glacier
#

bruhhh whats up with my internet...

acoustic trout
#

whats up

strange glacier
#

lag spikes are up

chilly ibex
#

Cloud gaming is alright

broken ginkgo
#

The only advantages cloud gaming has is for people who can’t afford a good desktop/laptop and that’s about it

strange glacier
#

geforce now isnt really game streaming its pc streaming

acoustic trout
#

u cant run anything other than games on geforce now

#

its not like u can run photoshop and stuff

strange glacier
#

yes but you must own the games in order to run them

acoustic trout
#

yea

#

bruh its 4am already

chilly ibex
#

I use game streaming but yeah only to my own PC so I still have control of everything

acoustic trout
#

imma just go to sleep

#

good night everyone

#

nice talk

Ping me pls

strange glacier

@acoustic trout what are you looking for?

#

also, what cpu are you getting?

acoustic trout
#

i just need a better mother board what is a good motherboard im going to upgrade my cpu later on @strange glacier

strange glacier
#

thats not very specific

#

what cpu are you upgrading to

#

do you need any specific features?

steep sinew
#

Whats an good xlr mic

#

I was look at the sm7b

acoustic trout
#

I think sm7b is overrated

#

but i have yet to find something better

steep sinew
#

Oh

acoustic trout
#

it just doesn’t sound clean to me

#

maybe its just the people using it wrong

steep sinew
#

Yeah maybe lol

acoustic trout
#

barely any treble

steep sinew
#

But I don't stream tho

acoustic trout
#

what do you need it for

steep sinew
#

I just want a good mic

#

For like music

acoustic trout
#

O

#

yeah sm7b will suffice if you can tweak it in post

steep sinew
#

Ok

@strange glacier thanks for the confirmation about that. I read it that way too but i also saw a usb-c port on the back of the mobo so wanted to make sure i wasn't misinterpreting it.

potent ingot
#

Can anyone recommend me a good budget wireless/bluetooth mouse? I checked Basilik and it doesn't seem to be as good as other competitors of the same price

broken ginkgo
#

@potent ingot Basilisk ultimate

potent ingot
#

@broken ginkgo Thx I looked that up but its wayyy too expensive

#

Preferably $60 or less

broken ginkgo
#

Oh

#

Hmm

potent ingot
#

Since I don't really game that much

#

Mainly for productivity

#

Occasional spellbreak and genshin impact

broken ginkgo
#

Or the mamba wireless

potent ingot
#

@broken ginkgo i see many people talk about mamba

#

To me it looks weird

#

Idk why so many like it

#

Basilisk is def in the price range but reviews say it's not as good as competitors of the same price?!

broken ginkgo
#

I have the basilisk ultimate (same shape as the hyperspeed I think) it’s pretty damn comfortable

#

Never tried out the mamba though so can’t speak for that

flint hemlock
#

I'm using the mamba wireless rn I like it alot its kinda like the deathadder. I use to use a deathadder essential i think

#

but i like my mamba better

acoustic trout
#

how is something illegal if a company made it and you are free to use it

flint hemlock
#

Wait it's made by Apple?

acoustic trout
#

yes LMAO

flint hemlock
#

Like approved by Apple and everything?

strange glacier
#

bootcamp is made by apple for windows applications

acoustic trout
#

yes

#

bootcamp is first party

broken ginkgo
#

Bootcamp comes included with macOS

flint hemlock
#

Dang I thought it was 3rd

acoustic trout
#

no

#

you can run windows natively

#

also you can switch easy

#

but i prefer parallel desktop

flint hemlock
#

Dang

safe pawn
acoustic trout
#

yes intel where is amd?

flint hemlock
#

Lol

strange glacier
#

amd mobile is pretty good now

flint hemlock
#

But also only geek bench 5

strange glacier
#

i remember back in the days of mobile fx...

flint hemlock
#

Gotta wait for everything to come out

acoustic trout
#

we'll see real results soon

#

next week is when reviewers will get theirs in

flint hemlock
#

Also u guys said u gotta wait till it actually comes out

acoustic trout
#

which is next week

#

apple is very fast

#

but

#

delivery takes hours because covid

#

depends

#

they gonna send me free apple mini to test

neon yarrow
#

Why

broken ginkgo
#

The dev kit?

acoustic trout
#

why not i am a apple developer

broken ginkgo
#

With the a12x?

acoustic trout
#

no m1

#

what?

neon yarrow
#

Why

acoustic trout
#

what a12x

#

m1

broken ginkgo
#

they aren't sending out m1 test kits

#

im pretty sure

acoustic trout
#

since when did mac mini have an a12x

#

my company gotta fix that for me

#

am I dumb or

#

because... we work with apple

neon yarrow
#

Why

broken ginkgo
#

I meant a12z mb

acoustic trout
#

we work at home?

neon yarrow
#

How much a yoi getingi paid

broken ginkgo
acoustic trout
#

that privacy to tell

#

is the a12z in the developer kit

neon yarrow
#

Wtf is this

acoustic trout
#

last years

#

normal i work at datacenter but because sickness we work at home

#

actually i dont need one but its free so why not

neon yarrow
#

It’s a hard disk drive with the power of a pc

acoustic trout
#

thats last years oh my god

reef tiger
#

looks like An easy thing to put in ur bag

broken ginkgo
acoustic trout
#

yeah but you still gotta hook it up to a power supply and a monitor and whatnot

#

that was last year develiper kit

neon yarrow
#

The iPhone pro max 5g plus is an absurd name

acoustic trout
#

but i get m1

#

yeah for preparing for arm

strange glacier
#

arm will be nice when apps transition to it

broken ginkgo
#

It was maybe 4 months ago

neon yarrow
#

Ahhh it’s 1:30 am and I got 5 exams tomorrow

strange glacier
#

for now leave my 4 hours of battery alone

acoustic trout
#

but if its shit i return is back get cash

#

arm is also going to significantly boost battery

strange glacier
#

@neon yarrow maybe you shouldnt be chatting on discord then...

acoustic trout
#

I think its 4 hours more than the previous macbooks

neon yarrow
#

Well

strange glacier
#

@acoustic trout yeah before i chose mine i was looking at arm but apps was a aproblem

acoustic trout
#

they told me it works great with vs code for my job

#

most apps should work fine by now

#

but its apple...

#

they have rosetta 2 to use

#

and I think in their earlier event they said cc already translated

#

i guess so

#

but I think this means that future macos versions will be impossible to hackintosh

#

maybe or maybe not because they made mac os open source

broken ginkgo
#

Whats sad is that ram isnt user upgradable with m1 anymore

acoustic trout
#

but eventually it will stop non arm support completely

#

if they move to arm fully because no support of intel or amd idk

#

so unless someone wants to translate the entirety of macos back

#

if they move to arm fully because no support of intel or amd idk
they will 99.99% do this in a few years when every mac is ARM

broken ginkgo
#

Oh yea definitely theyre gonna stop supporting non arm when all intel macs are phased out of software support

acoustic trout
#

yeah thats my point

#

macos will become purely arm based

#

and that will make it impossible to run on a windows machine

#

poor people who got that 56k desktop of apple

broken ginkgo
#

Ye since macos isnt meant for anything else than macs

acoustic trout
#

its already difficult but that will make it not even worth it

#

also no more google search engine

#

like it already works with only select hardware

#

idk really about that but they gonna build own shit now

#

what does that mean

#

everything will be fully apple but more expensvie before

#

huh???

#

apple search engine

broken ginkgo
#

Their search engine will be free

acoustic trout
#

who said

#

the news what i read about it

#

lol you still wanna use google after that lawsuit?

#

they wanna make everything apple and nothing else

#

nah duckduckgo is betrer

#

googles privacy is

#

yikes

broken ginkgo
#

gotta use microsoft bing

acoustic trout
#

lmfao

broken ginkgo
#

XD

acoustic trout
#

yuck lmao

#

that was hacked before

#

apple vpn

#

apple photoshop? lol

broken ginkgo
#

final cut exists so they already have that

acoustic trout
#

apple already makes creative software

#

yeah

#

final cut and logic pro

#

applecord?

#

they're both really good

#

tons of creative professionals use them

#

i still prefer linux over apple

#

but its same unix os

#

elementary os is same as mac os

#

idk what you're saying anymore

#

last thing I want to be fretful is my os

#

elementary os is linux based os looks like mac os

#

when I do creative work I want the os to disappear and stop bothering me which I think mac does a great job of

broken ginkgo
#

The main word there is looks

acoustic trout
#

I constantly have weird windows issues

#

updates, explorer crashes

#

what not

broken ginkgo
#

Yea

acoustic trout
#

macos just kinda leaves you to do your thing

#

bsod mostly

#

no bullshit

#

yeah bsods

#

some are locked on mac to change

broken ginkgo
#

Main reason I would use macos for it bc it has all the apple services

acoustic trout
#

you need to use bash to get it work

#

I want macos because it looks better, seems to perform about the same, has all the apps I want, and yeah integrates with the ecosystem

#

if metal api beats directx 12

#

gaming isn't an issue because I have separate comptuers

#

if you could game better on mac i dont think people would buy a windows os

#

nah

#

there would always be people hating on apple purely because its apple

broken ginkgo
#

You can actually do shit with hardware on a PC too

acoustic trout
#

yeah

#

the only modular mac is the mac pro

broken ginkgo
#

Yea

acoustic trout
#

which is geared towards actual professionals

#

if its not upgradeable its for me shit

#

but m1 will increase mac value by a lot

#

because they dont gotta pay intel

broken ginkgo
#

Yup

#

Intel has just been a let down

acoustic trout
#

amd?

#

intel is getting kicked down so much lmao

#

first amd then apple ghosting them

#

everyone buy amd now days intel get f

#

now i am gonna wait til apple gonna build own gpu

#

well

#

m1 is a gpu

broken ginkgo
#

I mean...

#

yea

acoustic trout
#

its an SOC its the whole shabang

#

m1 is a cpu with igpu

#

huh

broken ginkgo
#

yes it is

acoustic trout
#

there are 8 dedicated gpu cores

#

its not really a card

broken ginkgo
#

I think samet is talking about like a modular card

acoustic trout
#

its like intel graphics 4000

#

oh well yeah

#

its TECHNICALLY integrated graphics

#

I forgot they said that at the event

#

but still i stick with my windows and linux

#

also hackintosh if needed

broken ginkgo
#

Hackintoshing isnt worth it imo

acoustic trout
#

^

#

nobody wants macos that bad

#

for design i like it

strange glacier
#

@stray shale how much are they asking for it?

#

Tbh I would only buy that if it was like 350 dollars, yes something similar would cost 450 new but it’s used

#

If you want to buy it, I would ask what psu he is using because I honestly don’t recognize it xD

#

I’m not going to lie, that gpu is pretty ugly, and the gtx 1650 is kinda irrelevant at this point in time

@pine cipher nr400 is a mesh case meaning it can cool components really well, the joke is that i3 and 1660 super dont generate a lot of heat

#

@upbeat summit i chose the i3 10100 bc its cheaper than the 3100, and performs better in games

broken ginkgo
#

or you could just wait for amd to release ryzen 3 zen 3 cpus

strange glacier
#

@broken ginkgo cant my laptop is driving me insane

pine cipher
#

wait what

#

oh

upbeat summit

Ye

strange glacier

also there is no indication from amd that they are good value products

pine cipher
#

mr linus tech tips over here Jesus

broken ginkgo
#

they are good value products...

upbeat summit
#

I have a ps4 now but i want to switch to pc cause fps

strange glacier
#

judging 5600x a ryzen 3 zen 3 would be kinda bad value imo

broken ginkgo
#

bruh how

strange glacier
#

since 5600x is 50 percent more than the 3600 for not 50 percent better in games

upbeat summit
#

How much gb ram do u buy and mhz?

strange glacier
#

8gbx2, 3000cl16 bc im using intel locked b460

#

cant use anything over 2666

upbeat summit
#

And the Power supply at least 80+ bronze cause 80+ Whit would more damage ur pc than run lol

#

Not bad

strange glacier
#

uhhh

#

efficiency doesnt mean anything about quality

broken ginkgo
#

Only $100 more with the x tag at the end is a great value compared to intel and last gen

upbeat summit
#

It does something it rates how good the Power will be Transformerd

strange glacier
#

@broken ginkgo yeh but i dont have 100 dollars more to spend xD

#

@upbeat summit efficiency doesnt tell you if something will explode (:

broken ginkgo
#

Save 🤷‍♂️

upbeat summit
#

I get a 650 watt from seasonic 80+gold

broken ginkgo
#

650 watt should be fine

#

I have a 1060 lol

upbeat summit
#

HAHAH imagine im plaIng on Silvester and it explodes

strange glacier
#

3600+5700xt could probably run on a decent 550watt

upbeat summit
#

Yeah but i want to Upgrade later on 3070 and ryzen 7 and i dont want to upgrade power supply too

#

I also already boight a ryzen 7 ready board lmao

strange glacier
#

@broken ginkgo i play minecraft so an i3+1660super should be perfectly adequate lmao

#

i see no reason to spend more

upbeat summit
#

Yee for mc its pretty good

strange glacier
#

also playing rocket league but thats easy to run

broken ginkgo
#

Yea just saying for people who wanna play AAA titles

strange glacier
#

yeah AAA would benefit from 5600x perf delta

upbeat summit
#

I have a laptopop with ryzen 5 and igpu and im playing mc on 120 fps and rl like 40-60

#

So a 1660 super will run it easly

strange glacier
#

i have i5 with igpu, runs minecraft at 40fps 1080p low

upbeat summit
#

Huh

strange glacier
#

intel igpu cant compete with ryzen igpu

upbeat summit
#

I play with optifine

strange glacier
#

same

upbeat summit
#

Do u wanna play sometime?

#

But im not that good lol

strange glacier
#

no thanks i only play with people i know in person, hope you understand (:

upbeat summit
#

Oh sure its ok

#

I think my ssd is broken i always load in when im almost dead and a year before the whole Laptop started in like 10 Second lmao

strange glacier
#

ssds get slower as you fill them up

#

also could be ssd wear since laptops usually cheap out on ssds

upbeat summit
#

Huh 50 gb free space 🥶

strange glacier
#

i have 100 gb left on a 250gb drive lol

broken ginkgo
#

I had 2 gigs on my ssd left before I reset my pc

upbeat summit
#

For my pc i bougth an m.2 Kingston a2000 500 gb for Windows and 1tb hdd for the rest of the games what doesnt fit on my ssd

strange glacier
#

a2000 is pretty good

#

im buying a helix l personally, its a lil cheaper

upbeat summit
#

Yeah and not that expensive look at Samsung drives

strange glacier
#

samsung overcharges on ssds tbh

upbeat summit
#

Yeah

strange glacier
#

why not a 2tb hdd? they are approx the same price

#

seagate barracuda is 55 us for 2tb

upbeat summit
#

Cause i need a lot of space but in dont have much money left

#

Ill buy another 1tb later

strange glacier
#

ah cool

strange glacier
#

@acoustic trout in the future, you should upgrade the gpu, since 1050ti is pretty low for todays standards. the psu can support up to a 1660 super, or 2060 if you squeeze it in

acoustic trout
#

Ooof

#

Ill probably will

#

Also would it be easy to uninstall a part to put in a new one?

strange glacier
#

yeah relatively easy for gpu

#

unplug the gpu, replace the gpu, and plug it in

#

im not sure if the 1050ti uses pcie power tho

Hello, I have a older system and am looking to upgrade my storage from a 2TB beracuda hard drive to a ssd. I have about 1.5 TB more data that I also want to migrate to my system. Since the motherboard is os the older type and it does not have a nvme slot I would need to go sata. This is the ssd i'm planning on going with, if yall have any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated. https://www.microcenter.com/product/624755/samsung-870-qvo-2tb-ssd-4-bit-mlc-v-nand-sata-iii-6gb-s-25-internal-solid-state-drive

@flint dirge why not keep the files on the hard drive, and migrate the windows install to the ssd?

#

thats a pretty decent ssd

flint dirge
#

Thats kinda what i'm planning to do, boot windows, search engines, most played games, and more important items on the ssd, but I also want a lot of space for all the other files I have, like my drone, gopro, and phone video that's on one of my external drives totaling about 1.5TB.

jo i had the razer kraken 7.1 v2 for over 3 years and gave it to my cousin because it's like new, i upgraded to the kraken ultimate but the mic monitor is just sooooo bad, has some electric noises if that explains it in it

anyone else has that problem?

#

the mic monitor on the 7.1 was amazing, I even turned off all the filters that makes the mic sound crappy, it sounds good on my recording so it only can be a problem with the mic monitor and not the mic it self, can someone actually fix this somehow? maybe it's a problem with synapse 3.0

stark forge
#

@icy oyster please dont post the same message multiple times. Also if you need support that this discord cant provide. teach out to razer as this discord is all comunity members
