[long jasper]

guys, currently on my way home from my dads, he just got me a logitech C270 HD, 720P, 30fps webcam, is that good for streaming

[tardy shard]

thats a decent budget webcam for streaming but ive heard that the microphone on it isnt that great so i'd recommend to buy an external mic if you dont already have one

[long jasper]

i have a razer kraken x

[tiny viper]

gaming headsets mic aint good

[long jasper]

aw

ok

[vivid ledge]

Voicemeeter can help

[jovial roost]

i ask here for help?

[vivid ledge]

@jovial roost go for it

ah, already in there

[jovial roost]

yea

[dusk pulsar]

I wanna do RGB led strips setup but how do people do it? Do they stick the strips behind the desk or monitors/TVs? I wanna do both desk and TV chroma background

[vivid ledge]

Behind screens normally gives the widest, snoothest lighting effect

Desk lines people also do but imo off the back of screens tends to look the best esp. with ambient awareness effects (Replicates the screen colours and projects them onto the wall, like it's a bigger screen)

[dusk pulsar]

how many meters i should get for both monitors and TV? 24inch and 27inch, 55inch tv

[vivid ledge]

Imo stick to short lengths and get really strong adhesive

Then chain the short lengths together

Like

Measure for the 24 inch, then bulk buy for the others can work just fine

You might think you need to cover it to the edge on every corner but you really don't, moderate coverage is just about as good

Look into extension cables for the light strips when you do this, and be careful not to put more lights on a set of strips longer than what's advertised as max

[dusk pulsar]

i recently discovered the chroma controller and how WS2812b works with them, and how they're super cheap on aliexpress

so all of this is new to me lol

[vivid ledge]

Yes what you have in mind will most likely work fine

I've done it myself before but I used branded strips

You need lots of extension cables though

You can ping me here if you've got more questions about it later lol

[dusk pulsar]

so what do i search for exactly? 3pin RGB extention cables?

[vivid ledge]

Yeah

EK argb extension cables are good

Phanteks as well

[dusk pulsar]

thanks a lot bro

[vivid ledge]

Np

[hollow spindle]

These can be purchased from that bald headed guys website I think called Amazon for cheap. In case you need more diffusion

For instance. That ugly strip under my case totally will find itself inside this eventually.

Oh and don’t do what I did and think “144leds/meter is way better than 60 or 30 leds per meter”. I quickly found myself ordering a second chroma controller since 1 can only power 240 leds. Only to find out razer don’t care about my second controller. Synapse can only handle 1 before it tells controller 2 to s a d

[bold glen]

This is weird but why is there no Take screenshot command in Razer synapse?

[vivid ledge]

'Launch snipping tool' can work or do a ctrl+print screen command

[bold glen]

ctrl + prtsc doesn't screenshot

at least it doesn't on windows 11

It's Windows + PrtSc

[vivid ledge]

Rip win 11

Ah

[bold glen]

but for some reason it ignores my Windows key in keyboard function

it only registers PrtSc

[vivid ledge]

Well launch snipping tool is there if that works

Or if using an nvidia gpu you can use shadowplay

[bold glen]

yeah it does, but I was kinda looking for a instant screenshot option

snipping tool requires selecting the area and then screenshot

[vivid ledge]

.

[bold glen]

nvidia captures screenshot on the native resolution of your monitor, in my case it's 2K but I'm using DSR to achieve 4K and shadowplay doesn't capture that

tho windows screenshot captures with DSR

[vivid ledge]

Are you editing these? You can use upscaling in apps like photoshop

Idk if we can program the screenshot button to work because it's now windows key based

[bold glen]

No, I mean dynamic super resolution, it's a thing in nvidia that allows game to run at higher resolution than your native ones

[vivid ledge]

I know

I'm asking if you're postprocessing these screenshots

[bold glen]

nope, I just want to keep the resolution it was captured in

[vivid ledge]

Well you could also get a 4K capture card with passthrough

And just input into that

That'll take 4k

Use the live preview for it

[bold glen]

will look into it, thank you

ASUS TUF Dash 15 (2021) Ultra Slim Gaming Laptop, 15.6” 144Hz FHD, GeForce RTX 3050 Ti, Intel Core i7-11370H, 8GB DDR4, 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6, Windows 10, Eclipse Grey Color, TUF516PE-AB73 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08XPC3WFQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_7BGQ5AX7D312YT163EV5?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Is this good?

I’m upgrading the ram to 16gb 3200MHz ddr4

[wild sedge]

It’s 4 cores CPU, in 2022 you want at least 8 cores, and gpu vram as well 4gb isn’t great and unreal engine 5 wait already on the corner. For another 200 bucks you can get their ryzen 5000 and 3060 combo that on sale on retailers for 1350 i think. If form factor isn’t problem there’s bigger 16inch other brand gaming laptop with 3070 that costs 1400 i think.

[wild sedge]

And you don’t have to do this since they’re already 16gb.

[lilac falcon]

?

[vivid ledge]

It's pretty good but the 3050Ti will be a bit lacking. If you can upgrade to the Dash F15 with an RTX 3060 it'll be a much better choice (3050 class lappy's are quite a bit slower than the 3060's) and yes upgrading to 16gb ddr4 with an extra SODIMM stick is a good idea.

Have a look at this laptop instead. It's cheaper and more powerful with a 3060, also would need the same ram upgrade:
https://www.amazon.com/MSI-Thin-10UE-Gaming-Laptop/dp/B095L9QXMM/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=2HJKSU4N64V4F&keywords=msi+gf65+thin+10ue&qid=1650493591&sprefix=msi+gf65+thin+10u%2Caps%2C308&sr=8-3

And no you don't need 8 cores on a 1080p laptop. 4 cores is fine (Most people still use 4-6 cores for games anyway with no trouble).
Hope this helps :D

[noble fiber]

which kraken version is that ?

[tiny sail]

So I'm not really well known in the audio world when it comes to speakers and soundbars and such (headsets and such I know more off). Can someone tell me like the pros/cons or differences between the leviathan v2 vs the Nommo Pro? You can also name more technical stuff if needed.

[red spear]

Hey, would anyone be able to help with recommendations for a computer build I'm wanting to do? Looking to essentially do an upgraded version of my current system (HP Pavilion 500-189), which is like 10 years old. Essentially, looking to meet the following criteria: wanting to stick with AMD, will be used for content creation (gaming, streaming, videos, etc), has to be compatible with an NZXT H510 Mid-Tower ATX case - got free, minus duties, from a giveaway - and hoping motherboard can utilize everything the case has fully. Budget is about $1,500-2,000. Would consider it a bonus if the traditional black/green Razer theme can be stuck to, but not an absolute must - blue, gold, silver, et cetera would be okay, but hoping to avoid any "eye-popping" colours that stand out (e.g. cyan, pink, red, white, etc). 🖥

[red valley]

Whoa what type of mic is this?

Anyone?

[red spear]

Oh, and compatibility with BenQ RL2455HM monitor would be ideal, since I'm not looking to upgrade that. ;)

[red spear]

Looks like Razer's Siren, but not 100% sure.

AMD's Radeon RX 6500 XT is simply not good enough for gaming PCs in 2022. The 4GB of VRAM is severely limiting this GPU. The next step up from the Radeon 6500 XT is the Radeon 6600, which comes with 8GB, doubling the amount available

[bright crescent]

not planning to do heavy gaming, and 6600XT beyond my budget

[noble fiber]

try rebooting ur pc

[acoustic trout]

my razer nari ultimate worked fine for over a year and now when I plug in the usb dongle, it starts connecting disconnecting and connecting to the pc very fast.

I have a few other razer products and they work fine, I tried plugging in the dongle in every single usb slot but the same thing happens

[rancid aurora]

i have the same issue and i contacted support today

they opened a rma and i'm waiting for a reply

[acoustic trout]

I used to own a razer nari over a year ago, one day the dongle stopped working and they had no regular nari so they sent me nari ultimate, and now I have the same issue with them. Is it a common problem for razer headphones or am I just ultra unlucky?

[vale bear]

I have the Xbox version and have only had issues with connecting it to pc

[rancid aurora]

i guess you are just unlucky

[vale bear]

On Xbox I have zero drops, and never have had drops.

Maybe you just rolled bad twice

[acoustic trout]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaa

also when I remove the dongle and place it back in the headset works fine for about 4-10 seconds and then it starts cycling between detected and not detected

idk

[vale bear]

What other devices do you have around you?

[acoustic trout]

from razer I have: Basilisk v2 ultimate, the basilisk charging station, Goliathus chroma, and the huntsman mini tournament edition

[vale bear]

Anything that transmits

[acoustic trout]

I have a wireless mouse yes, the basilisk v2

works just fine and I bought It ages ago and never had a single problem with it

[acoustic trout]

when I try to use the pairing tool and I plug in the dongle this happens

[slate bloom]

my razer keyboards chroma is lagging insanely hard and doesnt even do what its supposed to, is it the app or what

i did close and reopen it but didnt do anything

but when i unplug my keyboard and replug it, it works again

i wasnt playing anything at the time but i play cod

[vale bear]

It could also be a power draw issue as well.

I experienced your issue while playing cold war a bit ago

[slate bloom]

well i was playing cold war

guess thats it but my psu is higher then reccomended for my build so power shouldnt be an issue

might just be the software

[vale bear]

Eh, I don't think that's the case.

[slate bloom]

you think its just with cold war then cuz it happend after i played that

its impossible its my pc cuz everything is brand new

and working as it should

[vale bear]

I mean I had that issue with cold war.

After that I started using static lights

[slate bloom]

i see, i have a thingy downloaded where keyboard is all white and the key i press goes thru all the colors so it just gets stuck

but i checked my whole pc so it shouldnt be an issue with my pc and you say its not the software so it must be cold war

It's about parity with the o11 dynamic

Airflow is good.

Only like 4 degree difference

Between glass on. Vs glass off

[vivid ledge]

Yeah but like, you get a p360A or Lancool II Mesh and it's like 5-10 with the glass on lol

I don't disagree though it's an interesting case

[vale bear]

Where can you store borzoi figure ay?

At*

The y60 would look so clean in a corner

Probably around the front near the side radiator mount.

If you have a rubber band or anything similar to hand, wrap that around it for grip, then wiggle it a little while pulling, it might take a few minutes but it should come out eventually - just spent a while putting new stabilisers in a BlackWidow V3 Pro a few days ago - some of them felt like they would not come out, but patience is key!

How do I get my fan settings to stay on razer synapse 3??

every time i reboot the fan settings reset

it has annoyed me to the point where i no longer have synapse installed

this is on a razer blade 15 advanced early 2021 model

also, is there any way to install chroma without synapse?

[faint creek]

Hi everybody, i wondering how to create custom games RGB integrations. What do i need to get started?
OR
It is possible to choose exact pixel on a screen instead of region in Synapse? (Ambient awareness)

Current ambient awareness region is too inaccurate to be useful for me

[vivid ledge]

Hey @faint creek , I'm not too knowledgeable of the former, but the later yes you can absolutely do

When you set up ambient awareness you can define a region on the right hand side of the studio screen in synapse, and you can use that to define a custom region you want your PC to pick up

You take a screenshot of the desktop and load it into synapse to then draw a smaller region of interest, how accurate you can make it, down to exact pixels? Not sure if you can, but you can make the squares pretty small

I will also note some caution here. Ambient awareness takes a degree of CPU overhead to run, I've never tried it but it is very possible you may end up with way too much CPU usage by having a lot of these set up on say a keyboard with each key

Or alternatively it might even do the opposite, I'm honestly not too sure but keep an eye on your cpu usage when you do this

[faint creek]

Thank you, i think there is only one way to do it... https://developer.razer.com/works-with-chroma/download/ 🤷🏻‍♂️😆😅

[sour jackal]

@fierce cloak 🙂

[fierce cloak]

just wanted to throw this out, for GPUs the 3 I have in mind of having is 1650, 2060, or 3060

[fierce cloak]

Hey

[fierce cloak]

but I like the founders edition

i don’t trust the third partie GPUs

[sour jackal]

Alright, I was about to say, running COD/WZ on intergraded graphics might be a struggle

[fierce cloak]

oh

[vivid ledge]

@fierce cloak get microcenter to build the computer

[sour jackal]

Third Party GPU's usually run better, due to it coming OC'd from the supply

[fierce cloak]

bro i was about to ping u to see the list too

wanted to see ur reaction too

[sour jackal]

This is a good recommendation

[vivid ledge]

Ok I seen it, it deserves changes

[fierce cloak]

yea i mentioned it in the last channel

[vivid ledge]

Gimme a minute

What's your total budget

[fierce cloak]

@vivid ledge

[sour jackal]

This is true, it does

[fierce cloak]

idc any under $2K

[sour jackal]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ZYCpH2

[vivid ledge]

Including monitor?

[fierce cloak]

naw I got a 240 alienware monitor 💀

[sour jackal]

Budget is $2K, for everything?

[fierce cloak]

i love it

[vivid ledge]

Ok so 1080p

Gimme 5

[fierce cloak]

ye

[sour jackal]

So just 2K for only PC?

[fierce cloak]

ye

and i’ll spend my other on a razer wireless bundle

i cant find one with a wireless headphones, mouse, and keyboard all in 1

only one i found was wireless mouse & keyboard

didn’t have a headphone

people from microsoft told me that founder edition GPUs from Nvidia have horrible thermal

2060 Super is my best interests

[sour jackal]

This is how I would build it - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mmxYNc

[fierce cloak]

@vivid ledge I remember you made me a list that you said I should get Intel

[vivid ledge]

Here, 3080.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/6NyfyK

[sour jackal]

Kept that Razer case since you seemed to like it, but move to ATX, since easier than ITX for a first build

[vivid ledge]

Yeah intel 12th gen just wins rn

[fierce cloak]

i’m glad u brought 12 gen intel

bc

[sour jackal]

It does kick out heat

[vivid ledge]

12500 will be fine on the arctic tower cooler

It's a 6 core too, it'll pair with any GPU at 1080p

[fierce cloak]

@vivid ledge you did the ITX one

[vivid ledge]

Ya I did

[sour jackal]

Personally I would go 3070 Ti over 3080, just better bang-for-your-buck - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sx9Wtn

[fierce cloak]

so will it be any harder or?

[sour jackal]

Not if you get MicroCenter to build it

[vivid ledge]

ITX is always harder but the ITX case is better overall and yes, not if microcenter builds it

For 2K we can also do a more aggressive mATX build. We can fit a 6900XT into it

[fierce cloak]

i’m not tryna be annoying but I honestly don’t know why I should get the 3rd party GPUs

[vivid ledge]

Tho tbf for a 1080p 240hz, we might wanna aim lower like a 6600XT

[fierce cloak]

2060?

[vivid ledge]

Yeah a 2060 would work, room for more on that monitor tho

[fierce cloak]

3070 is too much ngl 💀

[fierce cloak]

yea

[sour jackal]

Due to feature-sets, I'd stay with team green on a GPU, something in the ball of 3060Ti to 3070Ti

[vivid ledge]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HmxYNc

Try this

It should peak your monitor's refresh just fine

Knocks $500 out too

So you could get a really nice prebuilt keyboard and maybe a viper mini

[fierce cloak]

^

[fierce cloak]

hell yea

[vivid ledge]

Oh you mean AMD?

[vivid ledge]

While I would agree, AMD is just way cheaper rn

[fierce cloak]

No I mean for GPUs

[vivid ledge]

Ohhh

They're all the same my guy

[sour jackal]

But if the budget is 2K, you can get in a decent 30 series card

[fierce cloak]

oh 💀

[vivid ledge]

The 3rd parties just dress them up in a different cooler

They all come from nvidia/amd

[fierce cloak]

so ur saying

[vivid ledge]

You can fit a 6900XT in for 2K

[fierce cloak]

people spend the extra $2K on a GPU just for that slick design

[vivid ledge]

I have a specific build for the 2K 6900XT I share, sits in a deepcool mATX

[sour jackal]

And OC'd from the third party

[vivid ledge]

Yeah basically

[fierce cloak]

and they end up getting only worse thermal? 😭

[vivid ledge]

Yeah basically

Founders cards are not spectacular at all

[sour jackal]

5600X over 12500 though, all core boost higher on the 56, frequency higher too

As well as, allows OC, where 12500 don't

[old summit]

is not spectacular but idk why i love the design

[vivid ledge]

The 12500 has a better fps though

IPC wins

Its also cheaper

Lol

[sour jackal]

Games are single thread, got to do something a bit more demanding to hit multithread clocks, would rather have a CPU that can do it all, not just a one trick pony

[fierce cloak]

is there a huge difference between the i5 - i7 and 5 & 7 for AMD

[sour jackal]

This is true

It's just me, I'd rather run a 5600X over a 12500

[vivid ledge]

At 1080p yes

Intel 12th is faster

If we were talking 4K or 1440p no

The difference is like

1%

[sour jackal]

1080p it's just going to be your CPU that is the bottleneck since GPU has headroom, when you go to higher resolutions, the GPU inches closer to being the bottleneck

[vivid ledge]

Yeah hence me picking 6600 XT

No monitor bottleneck or cpu bottleneck

[sour jackal]

Same with the cooler, rather run an AIO, though cooling might be the same, I can at least get it to be quieter

[vivid ledge]

Nah the cooler is actually really good for a 65W cpu

Arctic 34 is stonks

And uber cheap

[fierce cloak]

so basically AMD users go for 1440p and 4K while intel good on 1080p?

[vivid ledge]

Anything more than 65W tho yeah, aio for sure

[sour jackal]

Was just answering the "difference between the i5 - i7 and 5 & 7 for AMD"

Adding to your 1080p comment

[vivid ledge]

It's more that when you go to higher resolutions like 1440p, the GPU is chugging so much that most cpu's can keep up, so the differences don't really matter much anymore

When we talk bottleneck we refer to the framerate production of both the cpu and gpu, they both produce the frames on your screen together

But one will always be slower than the other, depending on the situation

In this case, 1080p often means the GPU isn't working as hard because there's less pixels, so it produces a lot faster frames, to the point where the compute power of the CPU can't keep up

Hence "cpu bottleneck"

[fierce cloak]

let me find the exact model of the monitor just to confirm it’s 1080p

[fierce cloak]

oh yea

[sour jackal]

Also depends on the game you are running Arma is going to hit your CPU hard, where as some photorealistic game is going to hit your GPU harder

[vivid ledge]

I think I know, AW2521HF

There's one good cheap alienware 240hz

[sour jackal]

That's why I asked what games are you going to be playing on this PC Hasan

GTA V - I'd say both, but only because that game is so unoptimized STILL 😆 , COD - GPU, Roblox - I mean...

[old summit]

https://gyazo.com/a009c9818981d2385eab51e60acbf57a Damn the ATX version is so cheap in US in my country is like 190 usd

[vivid ledge]

The lian li razer is the only atx I would consider

[sour jackal]

For me it's €210

[fierce cloak]

yea the one without the back lights

[old summit]

+1 that is a good case

[fierce cloak]

Alienware 25 Gaming Monitor - AW2518Hf, Full HD @ Native 240 Hz, 16: 9, 1ms response time, DP, HDMI 2.0A, USB 3.0, AMD Freesync, Tilt, Swivel, Height-Adjustable https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0733YCKM5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_7K38PQJFBP475YZ8JHKW

[vivid ledge]

The tomahawk atx is actually flawed, the front panel chokes off all fans

[vivid ledge]

Ah close enough

Lol

[fierce cloak]

you were exactly right

[vivid ledge]

But the lian li razer albeit not great, still has potential

[sour jackal]

I have Razer ATX case, and I really like it, good build room, looks good, temps good too on the 3080Ti and 3900x, can't complain

[old summit]

i have the same monitor ( i got it new for 300$ )

[sour jackal]

AIO exhaust 😆

[fierce cloak]

for roblox i ment Blackhawk rescue mission 💀

i’m not gonna lie it’s harder to run than COD

believe it or not

u should see the benchmarks on it

[sour jackal]

Yeah, but I am sure there is enough headroom in a 12500/5600x and a 3060Ti to run Roblox, has to be no? 😄

[fierce cloak]

ye

[sour jackal]

Is it just badly optimised?

[fierce cloak]

oh my god for every other game on roblox i can imagine 300 FPS

On blackhawk prob only 80fps

[vivid ledge]

Btw remember this chart

Gives good perspective on performance

[fierce cloak]

will we consider Nvidia on Intels side? 😂

[vivid ledge]

Oh

No nvidia tryna make their own cpu's

They want the whole cake

[fierce cloak]

wth

[sour jackal]

No ways a 6900xt is equal to a 3090...

[vivid ledge]

It is

Driver optimisations actually make them faster in raw performance

Timespy 6800 XT's get 24K to 3090's 23K

[fierce cloak]

the drivers on the 3090 are better right?

[vivid ledge]

6900XT at 26K

[vivid ledge]

Not really anymore

[sour jackal]

In SOTR, 1% lows are 10 lower, and average fps is like 2 fps shy, that 10 fps lower 1% OOFF

[fierce cloak]

oh i forgot to add another game

FH5

[vivid ledge]

The radeon drivers since release brought out like 10-15% more performance

This is why the 3090 ti exists

[sour jackal]

Both 1% lows and average are 10 lower on AMD in Days Gone

[vivid ledge]

They made it literally to say, 'no we're still faster' lol

[sour jackal]

They 3090 Ti is just an Titan they tried to sell to gamers 😆

[vivid ledge]

They yeeted the power to take the win

[sour jackal]

True, but no ways a 6900xt trades blows with a 3090, not just in gaming, watching any benchmarks of the two head-to-head, the 3090 wins, slightly in average, but A LOT in 1% lows

And then encoding/rendering times, man the 3090 wins

[fierce cloak]

so basically from what i heard from you both and some people from microsoft, people who want renders, shades, ray tracing would go on nvidia but for raw performance and more fps they go for radeon

right?

[vivid ledge]

Yes radeon is a gaming card

[fierce cloak]

so ima consider nvidia for those who render stuff and video editing

[sour jackal]

I wouldn't agree, not this round of GPU's, it's more of for the price point you'll get a better Radeon card, but that's only because the card that, that Radeon is trying to compete with is like $100 more expensive

[sour jackal]

So if you want those rendering/video editing stuff, I'd also recommend AMD CPU's, better at multithreaded workloads, such as rendering and video editing

[vivid ledge]

And this is the biggest reason I'm recommending it, $ in the wallet lol

[sour jackal]

Yeah, but 2K budget, I would rather have the power-house not second place that is just cheaper 😆

That's why, that sweet spot of the 3060 - 3070 range is best (if you can the TI variant)

[fierce cloak]

maybe 3060

[vivid ledge]

You can't fit the 3090 into 2K budget tho lol

[sour jackal]

But I can fit a 3070Ti

[vivid ledge]

But then 3080

[fierce cloak]

i’m not saying I wana buy this, i’m only bringing this up bc it has a 3060

what makes it this price

[vivid ledge]

3070 TI is good value tho on nvidias side true

[fierce cloak]

oh crap

[vivid ledge]

But if it fits, then a 3080 lol

[fierce cloak]

that’s the wrong one

[sour jackal]

Sure, just you are now getting into diminishing returns

[vivid ledge]

It's all diminishing

Next-gen in 5 months

Radeon is just less of a ripped bandaid rn

[sour jackal]

With that mentality you'd never buy PC parts, cause 6 months there is a better product 😆

[vivid ledge]

Haha true

[fierce cloak]

what makes it this price

is it from the CPU?

[vivid ledge]

But this is a 2 year cycle for gpu's so it'll be worth waiting

[bold crown]

what ever happened to the razer katana?

[sour jackal]

Small formfactor, easy of use, accessibility, and Razer tax (don't hate me Razer but you know we pay more for those snakes) 😆

[fierce cloak]

💀

[vivid ledge]

Laptops and razer tax

Lol

[fierce cloak]

i understand they wana make bank

ok so

[sour jackal]

Man they don't do as bad as Apple tax, that is more like grocery store tax 😆

[bold crown]

yeah like those carpets are pretty expensive for something that should be at least $50

[fierce cloak]

i wana rock with

a 3060

[bold crown]

i got a 3060 ti

[sour jackal]

The power supply, it's coming

[bold crown]

nice

[vivid ledge]

True. Asus also bad or worse at times

[fierce cloak]

bro imagine apple puts a 3090 ti in their laptops ☠️

[sour jackal]

It's a good card

[bold crown]

i know

[fierce cloak]

I’m rocking with 3060 boys

[vivid ledge]

Any 3060 is fine really

[bold crown]

yeah

[vivid ledge]

Go for it

[fierce cloak]

ye

[vivid ledge]

👍

[sour jackal]

They put like mid tier AMD cards in the desktops and charged more than a desktop with a 3090 in it 😆

[fierce cloak]

don’t get mad but i kinda forgot the good pair for the 3060

by pair i ment CPU

[vivid ledge]

12500 was fine

[bold crown]

but they only had 3060 ti's in stock and i was impatient bc it was the only part i had left to put in my new pc💀

[sour jackal]

12500 from Alpha, I'd recommended a 5600x

[fierce cloak]

any 3rd party?

[fierce cloak]

i’m looking left and right

[vivid ledge]

Yeah any really

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/T92RKp

[old summit]

guys what do you say to change my current source (asus rog thor 850w 80+ platinum) with the new razer katana? (same as 850 or 1000 w) or should close my eyes and pretend it doesn't exist

[vivid ledge]

Whatever is cheapest

[sour jackal]

There are tiers of third parties

But any will do fine, really

[bold crown]

i need the razer katana RIGHT NOW because it just works with my kunai, tomahawk atx, and hanbo

[vivid ledge]

No, the thor psu is actually top tier

Keep the thor

[sour jackal]

My build - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mmxYNc

[fierce cloak]

me rn:

https://youtu.be/E2nu5kqR_-k

[bold crown]

i have a 850 watt power supply, do you think if i get the hanbo chroma i would need to upgrade to 1000w?

[sour jackal]

😆

[fierce cloak]

BRO WHAT

[vivid ledge]

No

[fierce cloak]

INTEL CLAPPING

[old summit]

I also got it at a good price which is just 170 usd (second hand but sealed)

[bold crown]

nice

[sour jackal]

It's good to do your research Hasan, make an informed decision

[vivid ledge]

Ya I did say 12th gen wins lol

But only in cpu limited areas

[vivid ledge]

At higher res it won't matter

[bold crown]

i have a tenth gen intel 10700F 💀

outdated

[vivid ledge]

10700f still strong

[bold crown]

yeah

[fierce cloak]

for forza they said the intel gave 5% more

[vivid ledge]

Still really good

[sour jackal]

10th gen is not bad, better than 11th gen 😆

[old summit]

yeah is still good

[vivid ledge]

10th gen was what AMD 5000 beat

And even then it was a hard fought battle

[bold crown]

my local computer store only had 10th gen, i would have gotten 11 if they had it

[vivid ledge]

Ryzen deserved it tho, low power for such performance

OP af

[bold crown]

i mean, your not wrong lol

[sour jackal]

Just remember, gaming is single thread, AMD CPU's do well in single thread, but shine in multithread

[vivid ledge]

Anyway ima dip, wish you luck at micro centre @fierce cloak

[fierce cloak]

alr

[vivid ledge]

[bold crown]

bro my old pc had a amd radeon r5 with built in graphics 💀

[sour jackal]

Peace, was a good chat

[bold crown]

im in aussie with no micro centres please send help im stuck with local ones 💀 💀 💀

[fierce cloak]

this is cursed

they gave fortnite the win

[sour jackal]

The integrated graphics struggle

[fierce cloak]

but everything else intel gets it

AMD is a fortnite lover

[bold crown]

lol fax

[sour jackal]

😆 😆 😆

[old summit]

[sour jackal]

In EU with none either, I feel you

[bold crown]

i just got nanoleaf lights yesterday and they work crazy in synapse

[fierce cloak]

0% 💀

[sour jackal]

+0%, still took a 0 win 😆

[fierce cloak]

Lame

[sour jackal]

I'm jelly, they are cool

[fierce cloak]

Ok ima look at Alphas list and put a 3060 to see

[sour jackal]

Goodbye my list

[fierce cloak]

again any 3rd party is fine?

[sour jackal]

Yup, as I said, there are better and worse ones, but still any is good enough

[fierce cloak]

how would u rank them

by manufacture

lets say top 3

aside from design

[old summit]

I personally do not recommend the ventus series, I have a 2070 super ventus oc (factory oc) and is hot like hell, 75 to 83 Celcius

[sour jackal]

ASUS is looking top, they have good binned chips (better selected GPU's), I run an MSI card, and I love it, and EVGA is going strong too

[supple kraken]

The HOF ones Are the Sexiest XD

[fierce cloak]

is Gig catching up?

[old summit]

Rn in idle i have 40c

[fierce cloak]

what the hell

40c would burn my finger

[sour jackal]

Currently running MSI x trio series, runs great

[bold crown]

i just ordered razer light strips and the expansion kit, and i never had the time to ask, are they actually good?

[sour jackal]

Man some GPU's run at like 80C under heavy load 😆

[sour jackal]

I have had my eye on them, haven't got them yet though

[supple kraken]

Yea AMD ones XD

[old summit]

x trio has a thick cooler 8 - 9 months ago i was thinking to frankenstein my gpu with a x trio cooler

but I didn't want to risk it especially when I saw that in my country an rtx 3070 was over 1300 usd

[sour jackal]

I have seen people strapping on two full 140mm fans on GPU's and the temps are way better 😆

[sour jackal]

I feel pain

[bold crown]

should i get a hanbo?

[old summit]

in the meantime I changed my case, it dropped 3-4 degrees

i had an coller master h500p mesh

[bold crown]

3080 Ti VS 3090

[sour jackal]

Careful with the way you mounted your AIO

[old summit]

is ok

[sour jackal]

Do you need the cooling, I mean, it does look good, I would get one if I needed one

[bold crown]

yeah im trapped with the intel stock cooler 💀

[old summit]

i due want to change it with a razer one when they will be available in my country ( and for a reasonable price cuz every time new thing release in my country they are like MSRP + Store tax witch is 5 - 10% + 20% from the importer )

[sour jackal]

I have a 3080Ti and I think it's a push, and 3090 ain't worth the price tag 😆

[fierce cloak]

wanted to show u that too

[old summit]

Damn that 3060 ti is faster then my 2070s

[fierce cloak]

this should be illegal

[sour jackal]

I mean, it's allowed

[fierce cloak]

80C is normal?

[sour jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/ill-allow-it-gif-9328164

[fierce cloak]

imagine being in a room

[old summit]

depends on the cooler

[fierce cloak]

80C

[old summit]

https://tenor.com/bglDs.gif

[fierce cloak]

LOL

See that’s how I want to feel for the pc

if I can’t survive in 80C

I wouldn’t want the pc too

[sour jackal]

Not really, it's quite common for GPU dies to hit 80C+ under load

[fierce cloak]

if I can’t survive a room 50C i wouldn’t let my pc do it too

unless we had a freezer blower

[sour jackal]

I mean just cause your GPU is 80C+ doesn't mean your room is 80C+😆

[fierce cloak]

no like just to know what yo machine is going though what u aren’t

[fierce cloak]

i’ll cook some eggs on it bro

[old summit]

personally the maximum that should be at temperatures (and my target that I try to reach as much as I can is maximum 80 on GPU and maximum 70 on cpu )

[sour jackal]

You get to cook one egg, then say goodbye to your GPU 😆

[fierce cloak]

would i just say 75 for max on both?

[sour jackal]

This is a good practice, I just want to repeat, under HEAVY load, like running a bench mark for a few hours, you can hit thermal throttling temps

[fierce cloak]

tell me if this is bad

me limiting the temperature to only 50C

[old summit]

that would be the maximum I would personally leave

[sour jackal]

Yeah, you will thermal throttle just by launching WZ

[fierce cloak]

what’s WZ

[sour jackal]

WarZone

[fierce cloak]

oh

[sour jackal]

My GPU is idle right now at 43C, so just by lunching a game, you'd thermal throttle

[latent kayak]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/956849090954666025/969866377009700924/20220430_174222.jpg 🥵 Desktop Class Nvidia RTX 3080 in Razer Core X Chroma enclosure 🥵

[old summit]

I did use furmark for gpu and aida 64 for cpu strss test

[sour jackal]

Ah, and you kept it under 80 for GPU, do you have an OC on?

[fierce cloak]

if i stream and play would i need 32gb or 16gb?

lets start by like not a very hard to run stream

[sour jackal]

Depends on the game, I started streaming on 16Gb of RAM no problem, till I started playing Tarkov, then I needed more 😆

[fierce cloak]

like streaming a video, roblox, web searching

to call of duty, war zone, gta

from my experience with 8gb of ram

[sour jackal]

Oh you mean, watch a YouTube video while playing a game (roblox)? I am SURE 16Gb will be fine to start

[fierce cloak]

do not ever

get 8gb of ram

[old summit]

at gpu I left it somewhere at 15 - 20 minutes and it reached a maximum of 83 C ( that temperature remained constant ) and at cpu having "overcloack" I left it for an hour and it didn't exceed 76 degrees (ryzen 9 3900x 4.2ghz @ 1.250v) i got this values from https://siliconlottery.com/pages/statistics

[old summit]

My google chrome eats like 4.5 or 5 gb of ram with 5 tabs open

[sour jackal]

Ah ok, interesting, you've made me watch to keep a closer look at temps while I am gaming, I will get back to you with my temps after some watching 👀

[fierce cloak]

yea look at these price differences between the 16 and 32 on the rgb

[sour jackal]

Yeah 8Gb of RAM is soon becoming, if not already has become, too little to do most tasks

[old summit]

I recommend riva tuner and msi afterburner

[sour jackal]

And that is 2x16Gb, try to get 4x8Gb rather, better running more RAM in dual channel

[fierce cloak]

but for 16gb and I run the fastest ram speed on 16gb is fine i think

[old summit]

or some pizza https://youtu.be/6DprJwuxDfo

[fierce cloak]

3200 for 16gb is fast isn’t it?

[sour jackal]

You spill any of that cheese, goodbye GPU 😆

[fierce cloak]

i want cheese bro

or chicken on it

[sour jackal]

You can get 3600 kits

[old summit]

ya

i think it will be cheaper a 3600 kit

[fierce cloak]

oh

the corsair one has 3200

ik for a fact they got 3600 somehwere

[old summit]

and if you want that chroma compatible get g.skill 😉

[sour jackal]

I have Corsair RGB Pro 3600 8Gbx4 kit currently, you can get them 😉

[sour jackal]

Find them 👀

[old summit]

did you run that thing to control them with synapse ?>

https://gyazo.com/9c4453459dee47246d07464498e77b6e

[fierce cloak]

wait

[sour jackal]

No, I do not run "connected" apps, the SDK messes with other stuff, I just use iCUE at the same time

[fierce cloak]

the ITX mini can’t fit a sea gate?

[sour jackal]

ITX is a smaller case, I guess that is a long boi drive

[fierce cloak]

oh it said it’s max clearance is

2’5

[old summit]

I personally have not had any problems with it and have been using it for about 2 years (the only problem was more recent with the motherboard disappeared from the "studio" tab)

[fierce cloak]

the sea gate itself is 3’5

LOL

[old summit]

but I'm not the only one with this problem

[old summit]

wt ?

[sour jackal]

Ah alright, I just find that for peripherals, Razer Synapse is great, but for temp monitoring and temperature shutdown settings, iCUE does the job

[sour jackal]

Oh I do not think the Razer ITX case has a 3.5 bay for HDDs

[fierce cloak]

ye

i need to figure out which to get

FH5 + GTA V + COD + Valorant + Roblox

[sour jackal]

If you can get a 2.5 SSD I would go with the 500Gb as a boot drive, and the like a 2Tb 2.5 SSD

Or 1Tb if you'd like

[old summit]

yes i saw some settings in icue but i use the software i have been using for years (core temp, msi afterburner and if there are more serious problems hardware info)

[fierce cloak]

there’s 500MB and 1TB 😭

[sour jackal]

For 2.5inch SSDs?

[old summit]

I recommend you get only ssd, I know they are more expensive but we are in 2022 (hdd only if you really need space and then I recommend one of at least 4tb)

[fierce cloak]

no i mean in the images i sent

[sour jackal]

Yeah, so I am saying, if you can get a 2.5inch bay SSD, I would recommended the 500Gb one in the picture, as a boot drive, if you cannot get a 2.5inch bay SSD then the 1Tb one in the picture cause, more space...

[fierce cloak]

would it run well even in 1 SSD?

oh

[old summit]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/R7FKHx/samsung-870-qvo-2-tb-25-solid-state-drive-mz-77q2t0bam
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/3CmmP6/samsung-870-evo-2-tb-25-solid-state-drive-mz-77e2t0bam

[sour jackal]

870 Evo 2Tb, not bad

[fierce cloak]

i’ll just add the 1TB

[old summit]

a friend has exactly the same models but they are 1tb each is 3 years old and had no problem

[sour jackal]

When do you see yourself getting this PC Hasan?

[old summit]

apart from the lifespan which decreases anyway to ssd

btw when you get it make sure to post some pics on #battlestations-old

[sour jackal]

Exactly, Hasan has to now

[fierce cloak]

i don’t have a razer set up but I can show you mine if it’s fine

[fierce cloak]

june maybe

[sour jackal]

Please do, it does not matter what's in the setup, we want to see is anyways

[old summit]

neither was mine until I got the motherboard and the ARGB controller so

[fierce cloak]

ok get ready to throw up

i’ll send it

[sour jackal]

Ok, ok, ok nice

[fierce cloak]

hold on

bruh yk what’s crazy

that alienware mouse i posted in #battlestations-old

on the website i think it goes for like

$100

i found it on amazon for like

$35 dollars

i don’t remember how much i bought it for

$35-$25

brand new too

[sour jackal]

It's it comfortable?

[fierce cloak]

i’m not gonna lie

the side buttons

are too far

[sour jackal]

Long boi mouse

[fierce cloak]

my thumb only goes to the back space one

the clicks are amazing

i never tried a razer one

they should let me review one of their mouses

[sour jackal]

Is Razer listening? 😆

[fierce cloak]

hey I ain’t a finesser

i’d return it

if i don’t they can charge me $500

[sour jackal]

😆

[fierce cloak]

GPU question is coming to my mind so hold up rq

[fierce cloak]

going back to this

alpha selected me the MSI one

why not the EVGA

[sour jackal]

EVGA boots higher, it might have chosen that due to the price, lower chosen first

[fierce cloak]

2 people 4 star it and the others 5 star the EVGA

ima try EVGA

[vivid ledge]

Wth is this abomination shape

My alien hands would fit perfectly

Ssg aliens wear

[fierce cloak]

nah that’s crazy tho

i spend $25 instead of $100

on it

[sour jackal]

But alright Hasan, and Antianonimi (and now Alphacool), I am off, nice chatting with you guys and I'll see you when I see you (later today )

[fierce cloak]

cya

@vivid ledge

for the gpu u selected me

[vivid ledge]

Time to make a profit and get a viper mini

[fierce cloak]

why not the EVGA

[vivid ledge]

Because MSI cheaper

More $$$ in wallet

Same card just different brand

[fierce cloak]

2 people said 4 star

[vivid ledge]

No advantage over each other

[fierce cloak]

[vivid ledge]

Ok I can give, one good reason for EVGA

But only one

[fierce cloak]

Boost clock?

[vivid ledge]

If something goes wrong, like it's got a problem, EVGA, won't hesitate to help and replace

[old summit]

thick cooler ?

[fierce cloak]

oh and size

[vivid ledge]

EVGA warranty is way better

If that justifies $29 then go for it

But that's it

Otherwise identical

[fierce cloak]

$18 additional for that if I switched to EVGA

That’s not bad tbh

better than me spending $200 to repair it with msi

i can sacrifice another $18

[old summit]

I also liked EVGA look, especially in the 1000 series with that industrial look, damn i miss old days

[fierce cloak]

plus they gave me 40$ off promo

😎

[fierce cloak]

ikr

@vivid ledge https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bfkTY9

i changed ur list just a tiny bit

[vivid ledge]

Ok you want rgb ram?

[fierce cloak]

yes

[vivid ledge]

Cos if you do don't pick corsair

[fierce cloak]

oh

[vivid ledge]

Yeah don't pick corsair it's actually bad

[fierce cloak]

i thought they were good

[vivid ledge]

They mix up chips so a lot of the time you don't get what you paid for i.e they just don't work

I see it like 4, 5 times a day

Especially vengeance

[fierce cloak]

oh wow

[vivid ledge]

If you want rgb ram, we got lots of other options

[fierce cloak]

they known for vengeance and they do that

wow

never knew that

[vivid ledge]

G.skill for example works with synapse

[old summit]

Gskill trident z ?

[vivid ledge]

Lemme pick a kit

Yeah

[fierce cloak]

wait wait

are gigabite ones good

i guess not

[vivid ledge]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7Xd6Dq

Nah not interested in gigabyte kits

Some are good but I so rarely see them I can't pick the kits apart

Don't know which are good or not

Also the SSD I picked for you

The SN770

It's faster irl than the 970 evo plus

It's like

Nearly gen 4 fast

[fierce cloak]

Oh wow

[vivid ledge]

Both are good though if you want to go evo plus

But yeah the build looks fine now

I gotta dip again

[fierce cloak]

i think i already had it there maybe

not sure

[fierce cloak]

alr

[old summit]

but I'm curious why did you go on Mini ATX and not ATX? @fierce cloak

[fierce cloak]

i wanted something small

i mean i would do the ATX big one if I am forced to but i wanted the mini

[old summit]

Ooooo you wanted something small, now I understand

[fierce cloak]

ye

[fierce cloak]

@old summit

i want to ask you on the power supply and the cpu fan

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7Xd6Dq

is there any way i can get a more quiet fan or nah?

[old summit]

noctua ones but they are expensive

[fierce cloak]

should I look up the best coolers for the cpu I have?

[old summit]

the psu ngl never know cooler master has one

[old summit]

if you want but that one you already got is good

[fierce cloak]

the most popular one i see is the cooler master

Alpha is here

!

[vivid ledge]

The PSU is one of the best ITX PSU's you can get

And since they all cost a lot

May as well get a really good one

[fierce cloak]

for the cpu cooler, should i get this?

idk how it’s popular

[vivid ledge]

The arctic one is mikes better

[old summit]

check the hight

[old summit]

yep

[vivid ledge]

It kept autocorrecting to mike

[fierce cloak]

LOL

what did u mean to say

much?

[vivid ledge]

Hyper 212 was really good like 4 years ago, that's why it's so popular

[fierce cloak]

oh

[vivid ledge]

But it's outclassed now

The arctic 34 can go up to mid-tier without any stress

Even better for a little more is the deepcool ak620

It's better than the NH D15

For like, 1/3 the price too

[fierce cloak]

good deal too

ok so

[fierce cloak]

in comparison

not saying all this pc build list is going to waste

but what would u say is better

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7Xd6Dq

this

or

this

[vivid ledge]

1st one

That said, that's a decent choice of laptop from Razer

[fierce cloak]

i7

[vivid ledge]

The 3060 lappy's this gen are really nice but you do lose performance

[fierce cloak]

oh

[vivid ledge]

The newer i5 will flatten that little i7 lol

[earnest flower]

Been way long than that maybe like 8-10 years

[vivid ledge]

Laptop power is much lower than desktop

[fierce cloak]

oh yea

totally

[fierce cloak]

now that the list is done

i can buy all

from amazon

i think

let me see

[vivid ledge]

Nice

You can still take it in to micro center afaik and get it built

Even if you bought elsewhere

(Call them first and check just in case)

Anyway gotta dip again

Glad to have helped 👍

[fierce cloak]

amazon doesn’t build right?

[vivid ledge]

No they just deliver

my razerblade15 2021 model has some screen tearing problems

had it for a little over a month

mostly happens when i go on reddit or move screen super fast i.e when i'm scrolling

[sour jackal]

Screen tearing could be a Nvidia thing, most of the time it's software related

[sour jackal]

If you want to post in #351097273226362880 I can try help you out

[unique compass]

yh sure thx

[wild sedge]

You’ve to buy monitor keyboard and need to have more space with desktop, 0 portability, that’s the main difference between laptop and desktop not only the performance, most poeple won’t notice the 10fps difference on 60fps plus which both PC can do (depends setting and titles of course).

[fierce cloak]

ah

[vivid ledge]

let'

Hey guys! I want to buy the Razer Blackshark v2 pro, but i have 1 quistion.. How long is the delay time for the sound? because its wireless

[snow saddle]

Is anyone else having issues with windows 11 and Bluetooth headphones? When I’m in a call on discord, teams or whatever, they just don’t work any more… worked fine in windows 10 😣

[chilly forge]

Ive had issues with Windows 11 since it came out. I went back to Windows 10

[neon veldt]

i have no say, as i'm not going to upgrade until there's few-to-no bugs

[unique compass]

anyone know what i should change to make it sound better

[snow saddle]

Yeah, this is the most annoying issue for me as I’m on a call at least 3 times a day and can’t use my headphones. So annoying.

[vivid ledge]

A completely fresh reinstall of windows I've noticed in the community seems to be the way forward for Win11

Otherwise there can be carry over driver issues and bluetooth could be very well related to that

If you can reinstall your bluetooth & wifi drivers the problem might go away

[wild sedge]

Is that on Razer Blade? I didn’t notice huge sound improvement changing it from stereo to thx, increasing hz as well, not a big difference on blade 14 2021.

[unique compass]

oof

i used headphones a lot anyway

but it'll be nice if the speakers had a bit more base to it

yooo

it changed

oh yh

[wild sedge]

You can’t expect good bass MacBook level from windows laptops, the only windows laptop that comes close to it only Blade pro 17 2022, you can check recent dave2d video with title mystery of MacBook speaker why it can’t be caught by windows laptops.

[unique compass]

yh true

Anyone got any recommendations for a cooling pad/laptop fan for the razer blade 15?

[wild sedge]

I don’t and never use cooling pad only stand to let the cooling performs better. If still hot, maybe try to repasting. Cooling pad might help with temperature but better thermal compound might also perform better. Blade 15 has thermal limitation so I don’t push it using costum boost and high since it’s (on my models) overclocking the gpu and let the cpu runs on highest tdp, so cooling pad won’t help much imo. With balance mode and higher fans rpm (while gaming), a bit rising the bottom areas using stand etc, I’ve 80ish cpu temperature and gpu never touch 80ish (blade 14 3070, blade 15 1070, using gelid extreme thermal compound).

[wild sedge]

Good to know, I don’t have experiences with dell laptops, for productivity mostly MacBook. Razer blade 15 2018 actually has quite good with up firing speaker compared to 2021 14, well maybe it has bigger room compared to the later.

[dire terrace]

just got mine too so far it is great 👍

[pale rivet]

Dell xps 15 is best overall

[long jasper]

what program is this

[unique compass]

thx

THX

[unique compass]

THX spacial audio for pc

[raven dome]

i have a question

its about tech

[young oar]

dats subscription service tho, and it doesn't work with my sennheiser 7.1 headset

[nova cradle]

is ubc better than audio jacks?
im too lazy to check

[nova cradle]

what is it

i can maybe answer it

unless it about audio

i have put little research into audio

[nova cradle]

dell💀

why dont people use pcs for work

it doesnt make sense

like portable but if your running heavy things you shouldnt be using a laptop

[tiny viper]

Aorus AMP500 vs CM MP510 vs hyperX fury S vs G-SR-SE
medium to fast pads comparison
which one should I get? or open to any other suggestions too

[pale rivet]

?

[pale rivet]

Bruh they use

Do u mean pc's

Or pcs

[nova cradle]

towers instead of laptops

thats what i mean

[heavy ferry]

I thinks it's very different from work place and work type.

At my job there's only laptops for Team leaders and the ones in scheduling and the rest of us use pc's.

At mom's work there's nothing laptops and pc's for everyone, laptops to use at meetings or when visiting a client office to go through things, while they only do the actual work on the pc's since a laptop wouldn't be strong enough to run all the things simultaneously

[wild tinsel]
