That's looks so clean

Actually having good cable management imagine

[graceful burrow]

That's some primo 2015 pc right there

[toxic kindle]

is that a 1060?

[graceful burrow]

Hits all the popular marks

[graceful burrow]

Nice eye

[red breach]

considering I built it in 2011 originally, that's quite a compliment

[toxic kindle]

i know a thing or two when it comes to hardware lol

[echo ridge]

Is that a b360

[red breach]

it's rocking a 3080 and 5600x now though xD

[graceful burrow]

I mean
You were asking about memtest earlier and it says 1060 on the side so

[echo ridge]

Not enough cooling

[toxic kindle]

i cant tell if thats a compliment or you're seeing through my bull

[echo ridge]

Yes.

[toxic kindle]

[graceful burrow]

It's not a compliment
It was sarcasm from the beginning

[toxic kindle]

lmao

not surprised at all

[echo ridge]

Hes a ah

Because it's the INTERNETTT

[toxic kindle]

i know how to build pc's and the basic shit of what each thing does and a couple of complicated things, but im very much just a well informed novice

and it looks like one of my ram sticks is bad

fuck

[echo ridge]

Honestly thats all of us here

Expect for sanic

And hardware bob

Also some other guy that has a A in his name

[tawdry musk]

To be fair, I.T. people can be rather dim

Some of the biggest idiots I know work in I.T.

[echo ridge]

Sounds like me

The first part

Not the it part

[graceful burrow]

You're missing a few

[echo ridge]

Ah aldonebutatincanist

[graceful burrow]

Rauko, shanic, mi3nshel, guiltyspark, Kazuma, Akira to name a couple

Coopa

[tawdry musk]

In fact, including the word cyber in your job title can signify that you have a much higher IQ then the majority who work with technology

[echo ridge]

Oh ya

Probably all of them have 100x my messages

[slim yacht]

i would not generalize a point of view here since youre just looking at your bubble.
not saying youre wrong but its not how it is everywhere

[tawdry musk]

dont think of it as a generalization if it makes you feel any better

[lean hare]

it said so on the GPU itself 👀

[lean hare]

many people working in IT struggle with the social aspect tbf 😛 a lot of people also think they also know best at all times, and they can never be wrong etc

[toxic kindle]

i didnt look at that until afterwards, i just saw the size of it and was like "that cant be any higher than a 10 series, and too small to be a 1080"

[lean hare]

convenient "excuse"

just messing with you 😛

[toxic kindle]

weh

[lean hare]

1080s are usually triple fan, aren't they?

[toxic kindle]

yep

i have one

[lean hare]

nice ^^ I had a 1070 Ti, and a 2070S, both dual fans

[toxic kindle]

i haven't owned anything higher than a 1080 yet

[lean hare]

1080 is still pretty decent though, depending on what you use it for

[toxic kindle]

yea but with my future plans, it wont be enough

[lean hare]

nothing will be enough ngl my 3080 is still not all there yet, but getting close

[toxic kindle]

we coming up on 40 series so

[lean hare]

yeah, and soon™️ we want 8K gaming, so even that won't be enough

[toxic kindle]

hehehe, thats why my 1080 aint gonna be enough

i do wanna get 4, 27 in. displays at 4k, 144 hrz, and run them as one monitor

[lean hare]

why not just a larger 8K one instead?

[toxic kindle]

cause with 4 displays i have the option to not use them as one all the time, i have a secondary pc, 2 of those monitors will be run by it whenever i dont want to use it as one giant screen

[lean hare]

ahh, I see - sounds kinda annoying, at least to me 🙈

[toxic kindle]

how so?

[lean hare]

screen bezels, if you play anything with a crosshair, it will be right in the middle of all the bezels 😛

[toxic kindle]

and thats why i want to keep the option not to use them as one giant display

i play a lot of OW and Apex :P

the main reason i want to have the 4, 4k displays, is just for watching shows and media :P

[lean hare]

hmm never watched shows etc across 4 screens at once, but I get too easily annoyed by bezels 😛

[toxic kindle]

long as you get the right screens and hang 2 of them upside down so they have "fore heads" insteads of "fat chins" it can work out nicely

[lean hare]

https://www.philips.no/c-p/275E2FAE_00/qhd-lcd-skjerm even this would be annoying for me personally 😛

[toxic kindle]

i cant read this site at all

[lean hare]

just look at the pictures

[toxic kindle]

ye ic it

[carmine merlin]

there was an earthquake just now

[lean hare]

hate how these sites keep forcing you to display it in the language tied to your IP address 😒

[toxic kindle]

yea

[toxic kindle]

you good?

[lean hare]

literally everything on my PC is in English, just not my IP lmao

[carmine merlin]

yep. I stoped typing for a sec to bolt outside.

[round sparrow]

your fav gaming laptop series? ik way too many people looking for laptops rn(mostly gaming) so i thought i would just make a 2022 list

[toxic kindle]

stay safe out there bud

[carmine merlin]

rog. But I heard tuf is also good

[toxic kindle]

this is the display i've got my eyes on

https://www.newegg.com/black-lg-ultragear-27gn950-b-27/p/N82E16824026052?Item=N82E16824026052&Source=socialshare&cm_mmc=snc-social-_-sr-_-24-026-052-_-08222022

[lean hare]

yeah, looks about the same as the one I linked when it comes to bezels

[toxic kindle]

yep yep

[lean hare]

if you're not as picky as I am, it will probably work out fine 😛

[toxic kindle]

ye im not super picky

[lean hare]

I wish I wasn't too, would save me so much money lol

[toxic kindle]

feel that, im picky but only for certain things

picky eater

[past egret]

fh5 with ray tracing makes my gpu to 99%

[graceful burrow]

what gpu

[past egret]

3060 ti

[graceful burrow]

sounds about right

[lean hare]

sounds reasonable, what resolution?

[obtuse spindle]

Hi, does the night also goes by so fast for you?

[past egret]

2k

[lean hare]

100% GPU usage != bad - it just means you utilize everything you got available, would be worse if it said 50% tbh

[graceful burrow]

1440p*

[past egret]

makes sense

[lean hare]

2.5k I assume then? 1440p?

[past egret]

im just surprised since this is my first time with raytracing

[graceful burrow]

raytracing isnt cheap

[lean hare]

my 3080 struggles pretty hard on 4K with everything set to max 😛

[polar fern]

Usually 100% use of cpu or gpu means there’s something not configured correctly, unless it’s intentional.

[lean hare]

not if you're playing games - it just means you're utilizing them to their full potential (most of the time anyway)

[polar fern]

Ehhh

Even F@H doesn’t use 100%

[toxic kindle]

just get another 3060ti and sli, ez fix (joking) 😎

[carmine merlin]

"I paid for the whole cpu, I will now use the whole cpu"

[lean hare]

got to get a 3090 for that

[toxic kindle]

[graceful burrow]

i doubt forza does sli very well if at all anyway

[lean hare]

yeah, I would be more concerned with 100% CPU usage, depending on what I was playing of course

[lean hare]

what is this load of bullshit lol

[polar fern]

@toxic kindle hay

[toxic kindle]

hi hi

[lean hare]

just like your PC using 12/16GB of RAM doesn't mean you are almost maxing out your RAM... your PC will remove stuff from the RAM to make space for actively used stuff instead when it gets there - it just uses your RAM efficiently

[polar fern]

My girlfriend’s daughter did a cooking/baking course earlier & made ramen & I may have finished the ramen (in chicken broth) with a dash of the ginger garlic sauce.

Prolly like 3000 mg of sodium

I am now preserved

[toxic kindle]

im just imagining dried out spongebob rn

[polar fern]

I’m ok

o-o

[toxic kindle]

lmao

[wary summit]

imma upgrade to windows 11

[graceful burrow]

do it

[toxic kindle]

not upgrading to windows 11 is making me feel like when i decided not to upgrade to windows 8

[wary summit]

tpm 2.0 is not enabled

bish it is thou

[lean hare]

I prefer Windows 11 over 10 personally, but I'd much much rather use Linux - might ditch Windows soon™️

[graceful burrow]

yeah but the difference is windows 8 was verifiably a dumpster fire
windows 11 is only a dumpster fire to people who dont know what they're talking about

[graceful burrow]

secure boot?

[graceful burrow]

on linux rn, pretty snazzy

[toxic kindle]

im just, waiting for more of the bugs in windows 11 to be ironed out

[graceful burrow]

there really arent any

[lean hare]

I've used Linux before, but because of gaming, it's not such an ideal option for me but I'm about ready to ditch games that don't support Linux

[graceful burrow]

just use proton and never have to worry about it again

proton is absolutely elite

[lean hare]

that's not right tbh

[graceful burrow]

that's absolutely right

[lean hare]

not at all lol, good luck playing R6Siege on that...

[graceful burrow]

that's more the devs hating linux than it is it not working on linux

just like destiny 2
works great on linux
bungie will ban ya if they find out tho

[lean hare]

I'm well aware what the situation is tbf 😛

for R6Siege it's just that they haven't enabled BE on Linux yet

[graceful burrow]

that's alright tho
r6s and destiny 2 are extremely meh anyway

[lean hare]

so Proton won't solve anything

[lean hare]

oh, so because you think it's me, I may as well not play it then, my Linux problem just magically disappears? 😂 what a useless statement ngl

[graceful burrow]

no, i'm saying that about me and my opinions

[frigid smelt]

That’s more not « worth » for them actually, they don’t want loose time to build on Linux for a very small base of player

[graceful burrow]

that wasnt directed at you

sorry if you took it that way, wasnt my intention

[lean hare]

fair enough, but was kinda hard not to interpret it that way 😛

no worries, I call out shit when I see it, and that'd be the end of it ^^

I don't really play any games that much these days, so not really that big of a deal to me anymore

might try to mess around with a VM setup for playing Windows-only games, instead of dual booting - cba dual booting

[polar fern]

Windows 11 is like when you get a new car, but all the loved features you used all the time were deleted

[graceful burrow]

(w11 doesnt really remove features)

[lean hare]

I don't miss anything when I use W11 🙂

[lethal copper]

Windows 11 is like when you get a new car but it turns out it’s just your old one that was stolen except they ripped out some features

[polar fern]

3 key features I use daily are gone

[graceful burrow]

detail them

[polar fern]

Yes! 🤣

[graceful burrow]

okay so you're just talking out your ass blatantly

[polar fern]

Nope I just don’t want to

[graceful burrow]

if they're key features they should be easy to list off

[polar fern]

Operating on 3 hours of sleep across 2 days. I can choose to not talk about stressful stuff

[toxic kindle]

windows 11 is like when you go to buy a new car, but its just your old car except now your radio doesnt work in fm mode, which doesnt seem like a big deal but it still bugs you

[unique roost]

I'm thinking about upgrading to 11 for the Android runtime. Why shouldn't I upgrade

[graceful burrow]

its more like they just changed around the controls tbh
because that's all they really did kek

[toxic kindle]

so its your old car with a shitty new steroe

[unique roost]

Just a reskin of 10 from everything I've been reading

[toxic kindle]

i cant spell fuk

[unique roost]

Plus some new features

[toxic kindle]

[graceful burrow]

it's more than a reskin but unless you get into the nitty gritty

[frigid smelt]

Actually no reason to not upgrade

[polar fern]

Language is a learned skill, not something humans universally evolved to use

[lethal copper]

windows 11 is like when you go to buy a new car, but its just your old car except they put your radio volume controls in the most random spot and the manual just says “go find it, good luck”

[toxic kindle]

[unique roost]

There is one - I parted out my PC so I have nothing to run it on anyways

[graceful burrow]

this is the best description kek

[frigid smelt]

[polar fern]

I tired.

[toxic kindle]

hi tired

[unique roost]

He's two-tired

[polar fern]

👋

[graceful burrow]

hi tired
i'm still waiting for those 3 key features

[polar fern]

Tew tired

[toxic kindle]

im gonna vent about a stupid

[graceful burrow]

holds true

[unique roost]

Go on

[graceful burrow]

go on

[polar fern]

@toxic kindle go

[toxic kindle]

back when they did the stimmy checks, i went to upgrade pc, i bought a 2600 ryzen 5 cause scalpers made the 3600 impossible to aquire at the time. Now they're goin for 150 which is less than what i got my 3600 for and im just like

big mad

[graceful burrow]

i remember that

[toxic kindle]

2600 not 3600

[polar fern]

I’d sue. 🤷‍♂️

[graceful burrow]

i stuck it out and did manage to get a 3600
for 169 :)

also managed to get a dece x570 board for 120 when amd boards were impossible to find

[toxic kindle]

[graceful burrow]

someone is definitely getting sniped by warship kek

[polar fern]

@toxic kindle do you need a large wrench & a window?

[gentle slate]

On a scale of 1-10 how dangerous would it be to dismantle a PSU for a rattling fan?

🤔

[polar fern]

7/10

[graceful burrow]

10 you could literally die

[toxic kindle]

@polar fern maybe a sellers face to go along with it yes (joking)

[gentle slate]

Could? That's not a will!

[polar fern]

👀

[past egret]

ltt discord users are not responsible for your death

[unique roost]

Neither is LTT

[polar fern]

For real it’s danger. If you’re not sure don’t do it

[waxen cobalt]

Grab a chonky resistor and feed the capacitors to ground generally fine then

[toxic kindle]

at some point ill bite the bullet and get a 3600, just to tie me over till i can get a completely new system, with current gen stuff instead of a mish mash of crap

[unique roost]

If you can be certain the capacitors are drained you're fine

[graceful burrow]

dont bother with the 3600

get a 5600

[polar fern]

Mashed crap best builds

[graceful burrow]

it's way faster

[toxic kindle]

[toxic kindle]

but price

[unique roost]

This is not true

[graceful burrow]

cheaper than what you got your 2600 for probably

it's a big enough upgrade to be worth the cost

[unique roost]

You'll need to connect both terminals with a resistor for a while to make sure it's drained

[toxic kindle]

200 ish

[unique roost]

Just one terminal to ground won't guarantee it'll drain

[graceful burrow]

185 on amazon rn

[unique roost]

Both terminals to ground and you can't be sure it'll drain for a long time

[toxic kindle]

the main reason i decided to do a 3600 is because it'll be less than 200 bucks, and it'll last me till i can get the upcoming ryzen 9 sometime mid next year

and i can just, sell my 2600 for like 80 bucks or something

idk what it goes for

[polar fern]

If we get another stimulus check, I’m going to sink it into a newer version of my thinkcentre kitted out from the factory. This piecemeal stuff is taking far too long

[toxic kindle]

we def arent getting anymore stimmys

as far as the world is concerned, pandemic is over

[polar fern]

We could here - $2000

[toxic kindle]

where is here tho

[polar fern]

Pennsylvania

[toxic kindle]

hmm

idk

i still dont think we getting anything

[polar fern]

The governor wants to but the legislature is being intentionally blockading

[toxic kindle]

not surprised

[polar fern]

Makes me almost want to smack them

[carmine merlin]

for me it's not over. There's still 3000 cases a day here and we all wear masks

[polar fern]

Yep. Tis not over.

[toxic kindle]

yea i dont think its over

which is why i phrased it the way i did, "the world is concerned"

[carmine merlin]

its over in eu and na but here, no

[woeful minnow]

the us still has the most active cases

[toxic kindle]

the reason the US has that issue is because everyone is just ready to say its over and doesnt do anything to protect themselves anymore

[gentle slate]

covid? i forgot about covid

[polar fern]

My girlfriend’s sister got it from hairy putter world few days ago. She’s mostly ok but the kids are very ill

😔

[toxic kindle]

i hope they get well soon

[gentle slate]

idk if I've even had covid. My grandmother was in contact with a covid person. Then me and her had fever for like.. 1 single evening.

[polar fern]

Me too. They’re not vaccinated.

[wary summit]

will upgrading to windows 11, break apps, cuz before when i did, many of my games broke

[polar fern]

Yeah it seems to be based on pre-existing conditions and genetics and stuff

[gentle slate]

I've laso been actively going to uni n stuff. Several of my classmates had covid

still nothing on me.

[toxic kindle]

me and all my siblings got covid, we were already double shot on vaccination, i got hit with a weaker strain, luckily, but it still was NOT FUN

[polar fern]

My brother was exposed and him and his wife and kids did not get sick so. Like I said, i think it’s just very individualised

[toxic kindle]

theres tons of factors yea

different strains, different vaccinations, different genes, etc.

[gentle slate]

im just built diff

[polar fern]

Okay as much as I think it’s funny that I am spongebob dried out I should probably go drink another litre of water

[wary summit]

enabling tpm didn't work :/ #tech-chat-1

[polar fern]

TPS sheets?

[carmine merlin]

I saw this video
"how to cook ramen.
step 1. read the package instructions
Wait, this contains 98%of your recommended daily sodium intake?"

[polar fern]

No I mean they actually made it from scratch.

[carmine merlin]

is it tonkotsu ramen?

[polar fern]

It was all extremely tasty but the sodium content was probably about 3000 mg no joke

I’m not sure I was asleep for when they were doing the class it was like a thing via zoom

Had a very traditional style ginger garlic soy type sauce and you combine that with chicken broth and the fresh Ramen pasta and you heat it up and you eat it

https://youtu.be/m5uayeTCYJQ

I would really like to be able to make udon & put together some kinda udon seafood dinner

[carmine merlin]

make sure not to use 3000mg of salt

[polar fern]

Oh that is just the noodley bits you can use it in all kinds of different dishes

I can’t sleep and I have to be awake in several hours this is not good

[toxic kindle]

hahaha same

[carmine merlin]

me who just got home from school

[polar fern]

It is 05 44 here

[toxic kindle]

im too anxious about my pc and cant go to sleep until i've run all my tests

[carmine merlin]

its 17:44 here

[polar fern]

I have to wake at 0800

You must be in Australia or something

Malaysia Singapore

[carmine merlin]

no, South east asia

[polar fern]

Don’t tempt me to list all the countries because I am tired enough to possibly do it

[carmine merlin]

ye, get some rest

I have to sleep at 9 today because I have to wake up at 5am for school (0 hour class)

[polar fern]

Laos Cambodia Vietnam Thailand Malaysia Singapore Indonesia

[carmine merlin]

Indonesia

[polar fern]

Oh cool where they have all the volcanoes and crazy earthquakes and tsunamis must be fun

[carmine merlin]

an earthquake just happened. Mag 5.8

[polar fern]

Ring of fire doing its thing

I do sincerely think that geothermal energy is a vast untapped resource for local and regional energy solution

If you want to prevent a volcano from erupting just drill way down a bunch of holes and pull all of the heat out of the ground

[carmine merlin]

no one really wants to bore holes in a volcano because 1. it gives us very fertile soil and 2. no one has the machine to do it

[polar fern]

One downside to this is that eventually the Earth will cool enough to where the magnetic field will start the weaken, but That is millions of years off

The volcano may give you very fertile soil but it also gives your house a collapse

[stray arch]

hey guys, I have a question. What GPU do I really need?

[polar fern]

They can also cause issues with health and transportation and vital infrastructure

Technically no one -needs- a GPU

[carmine merlin]

its a sacrifice that my country is willing to take

[graceful burrow]

Depends on what you're doing

[polar fern]

Yeah the only problem is in a globalised economy if something goes wrong over there could affect millions of people outside of the region

[stray arch]

just gaming/streaming

[graceful burrow]

What games

And what cpu is being paired with it

[stray arch]

i can go either a 5600x or a 5800x

[polar fern]

It would be really cool if someone who lived in an old mill could turn the water wheel into a power source and then also use the water for cooling

[stray arch]

AAA games 1080p/1440p, high/ultra settings

[polar fern]

My face is ultrahigh settings

[graceful burrow]

Transit go to bed

[stray arch]

thats great

[polar fern]

I need more water before I can sleep

[graceful burrow]

#tech-chat-1

[carmine merlin]

6600xt, or 3060 (I think)

[toxic kindle]

damn you're right, even ray tracing is on, i can count the pores (joking)

[polar fern]

I’ll probably watch some YouTube or silent movies or something and then go to sleep

[toxic kindle]

[graceful burrow]

Def a bit low

[carmine merlin]

so 6700 or 3070?

[graceful burrow]

6700xt/3070
Whichever is cheaper

[polar fern]

🤣

[toxic kindle]

^literally you

[polar fern]

Look and see how enthused I am

[stray arch]

you sure you dont have dlss on?

[polar fern]

I have -redacted- on

[stray arch]

i think 3070. but i guess i can do with a 3060

[graceful burrow]

If the amd equivalent is cheaper go with that

Usually the 6700xt is about as costly as a 3060 so take that as you will

[polar fern]

For 3060 given proper cooling and all that does is pretty well 3070 however really depends on the board manufacture specifically because some of them are not built very well

[stray arch]

oh, not here in australia

[graceful burrow]

Nothing is cheap in aus moot point

[carmine merlin]

"this image was rendered on RT core 3.0" -jensen huang

[polar fern]

Okay I Gotta go I need water I need brain stimulation and then sleep

You all be good

[carmine merlin]

goodnight

[toxic kindle]

gnight bud, hydrate and rest well

[stray arch]

my guy's 3090's RT cores wanna sleep

[thick willow]

3090 = overrated

[gilded obsidian]

.. it has been, 3080 is the max

[limpid fern]

Some people need the vram

[gilded obsidian]

no one needs 3090, if so buy a server..

cuz your not buying it for graphics

[thick willow]

Its just a name

3080 is still good

Not just good, its great

[limpid fern]

Some servers use 3090s

[toxic kindle]

theres 3080's out there with 12 gigs of vram that perform, just about as good as 3090's right?

[limpid fern]

3090 has 24gb

[thick willow]

I think yeah

[stray arch]

and there are 3090 ti out there selling for incredibly low prices

[thick willow]

I dont think that any normal user would need that gpu

[limpid fern]

No normal gamer needs above a 3070

[toxic kindle]

or a 3070 ti ye

[tawdry musk]

3090 isn't a high end gpu

[stray arch]

imagine even using a gpu? just use AMD's igpu

[limpid fern]

Thats a gpu

[stray arch]

in a cpu

[slim yacht]

[thick willow]

3080 with 10gb is the best thing you could get

[limpid fern]

Me and the boys gaming on a1000s

[slim yacht]

i need to ask why

[toxic kindle]

im gamering on a 1080 still

[stray arch]

nah, RTX quadro 4000s

[limpid fern]

Bro those are shit

[tawdry musk]

You don't game on high end gpu's either

[stray arch]

thats the point

[limpid fern]

Its a joke i only have a rtx 6000

[slim yacht]

how does that make it any better

[thick willow]

My grandfather’s old pc is still pretty good

[limpid fern]

Idont use it for gaming

[stray arch]

hb we just game with the TITAN Vs

[thick willow]

I could be gaming on it

[limpid fern]

Yup

[slim yacht]

you can tho
crank up those shaders to the max

[limpid fern]

I typically use a 1660ti and a 9750 rn

[tawdry musk]

For ideal gaming you want a midrange gpu paired with an Intel cpu

[limpid fern]

Its not made for gaming

[stray arch]

no, for gaming you want to go with an amd cpu

[limpid fern]

Max settings is gta and minecraft

[slim yacht]

me : i paid for it, ill use it where it can be used

[tawdry musk]

But why

[unborn flare]

It's for powering a sentient AI

[limpid fern]

Yea

[stray arch]

they are better for gaming. intel are work cpus

[limpid fern]

Its built for algorithms and thats what i use it for

[thick willow]

Can i get a gaming pc with 30 dollars ?

[stray arch]

you can certainly try

[limpid fern]

Laptop

[unborn flare]

I3 outperforming in single core and fps in most games as of right now

[tawdry musk]

Amd have bigger work horses, intel have best practises

[thick willow]

I want a 4k 120 fps gaming pc under 50$

[unborn flare]

Idk what to say to that

[stray arch]

nah, iphone with a monitor + keyboard and mouse

[slim yacht]

lol not even thermal chamber with upcoming 14 can save it from exploding at that point

[stray arch]

and the 5600x is a beast in 1080p gaming. 5800x3d is the best gaming cpu

[unborn flare]

You can buy anything upto a 3090ti custom water cooled rig for that money

But you gotta send them your kidney in exchange offer

[stray arch]

thats why you cool your phone with an AC

[thick willow]

Wow thats so sick

[unborn flare]

Still not as sick as you after losing both kidneys 😉

[stray arch]

youll be dead by then

[unborn flare]

Dialysis

[thick willow]

[toxic kindle]

just get on the donor list for kidneys and wait for your kidney to come back to you

[thick willow]

Are foldable phones stupid ?

[unborn flare]

Not really

[tawdry musk]

People who can't afford a 3090 need to think about other priorities right now, your life is more important then a rock that has been tricked in to thinking

[stray arch]

what you can sell is an eyeball, one lung and a kidney

[toxic kindle]

ur nutz

[unborn flare]

Variety seller i see

[toxic kindle]

[stray arch]

nah, im not

[thick willow]

I dont know but for me, i wold prefer buying a gaming phone and a tablet, would be better overall but not portable as foldable phone

[toxic kindle]

its an option, not saying you woul

[stray arch]

ofc lad. the more, the merrier

[unborn flare]

I ain't selling my only way to infinite kidney glitch

[thick willow]

I could even get an asus zephyrs g14 on its price

[stray arch]

look man, i at least wanna have functioning balls

[toxic kindle]

[unborn flare]

And children to sell kidneys

Jk

[stray arch]

nah, just sell the children then boom. you have a ton of money

[tawdry musk]

People sell their body parts usually to support their family and their needs

[unborn flare]

Nah bruh the last time i checked the prices they selling for more open box

[graceful jackal]

Organs more expensive change my mind

[stray arch]

and we sell it to game. just that simple 🤷‍♂️

[graceful jackal]

Nah bro that shit overrated

[unborn flare]

I mean i don't give a shit about them i am here for business /s

[thick willow]

Gaming pc worth more than a family

[stray arch]

you can sell their scalp but i doubt that will earn you much

[unborn flare]

Scalp?

[stray arch]

tbh, any reality is better than the current one. i mean, who doesnt wanna walk around in GTA V irl

[tawdry musk]

Has anyone ever donated an organ to an anonymous person who needed it to survive? I think these jokes are sickening

[stray arch]

yup

[unborn flare]

That's why they are jokes

I fully understand the importance of organ donation

[tawdry musk]

That's fine, have you considered making some sort of donation?

[thick willow]

Oh yeah and getting that mp5 and shoot around

[unborn flare]

Not yet but my some of my relatives have opted for full body donation in case of death

[stray arch]

blood donations are nice

[tawdry musk]

Check out your local bone marrow register

[stray arch]

uh, no

[tawdry musk]

Why not

[stray arch]

i dont need to :D

[tawdry musk]

That's why it's called a donation, more to the point though, it might not be what you think, it's amazing how the process works, they make you grow it in your blood and collect it instead of taking it from your bones

[stray arch]

as if that will help me afford that 3090 ti

[tawdry musk]

Like I said, if you can't afford a 3090ti you have other priorities, like having a life

They are midrange GPU's, they aren't impossible to afford

That's how they are priced, on value

[graceful jackal]

@tawdry musk do you work as a donation marketer

[tawdry musk]

No

[graceful jackal]

Then why do you sound like one

[deft quarry]

Do we know if there will be more than just 4 waves for the backpack?

[tawdry musk]

I don't, you're just still figuring out your priorities

[lean hare]

there will

it's not a limited edition item

[graceful jackal]

Nah bro i got mine straight as a bullet

[tawdry musk]

Good for you

[severe kraken]

Damn bro's straight

[deft quarry]

Nice

[graceful jackal]

yep

cardboard case time?

I would use my micro ATX case but new GPU won't fit in it

[limpid fern]

Yea or better, just use a table and the motherboard box

[limpid fern]

Can be fixed with a rotary tool

[mild hearth]

yes

good idea, time to make a small form factor 3080ti

[devout hare]

look what just arrived

[graceful burrow]

It is indeed a cpu cooler

[night heron]

factual statement

[devout hare]

well: the Wraith is going out for obvious reasons

[graceful burrow]

Just stop smoking simple as

[devout hare]

as i said: i dont smoke and i gave up to reason with my Parents

[graceful burrow]

I'm gonna keep bringing it up

[civic mason]

Why make a CPU cooler out of rock

[carmine merlin]

I thought it was a rock (it says it on the packaging)

[graceful burrow]

He brings up a good point

[devout hare]

but to the wrong one. if i could change them i already would've

and to make it worse: my Dad has a Medical Condition with his cardiac system

[graceful burrow]

I'm gonna keep bringing it up

[devout hare]

where stopping smoking could help very much (but well. old habbits etc)

[limpid fern]

All cpu coolers are made of rock

[past egret]

no some are made of dinosaurs

[civic mason]

[limpid fern]

Like?

[civic mason]

How could this be

[past egret]

the stock coolers are more dinosaur than rocks

[civic mason]

[limpid fern]

What are they made of

[past egret]

plastic

[limpid fern]

Thats just aesthetics

The actual cooling part is made from metal

[crystal mirage]

mineral oil

[limpid fern]

And what is the actual block made of?

[crystal mirage]

well probably some type of metal which has been made into the block by using machines that were powered by fossilized dinosaurs

[manic torrent]

plastic comes from oil, which mostly came from single cell organisms, not dinosaurs.

algae and such

[graceful burrow]

Hi Bob how was your day

[manic torrent]

a little hectic. Just finished hanging out the washing, done with bullshit adulting for the day

[graceful burrow]

Relax time

[manic torrent]

and you?

[graceful burrow]

It's 6am

I was up all night and it was incredibly meh

I'm gonna end up sleeping all day
And I'm expecting a call back for a job I more than don't want to do but I need money

So I plan for it to be a pretty lackluster not very good day

[manic torrent]

Yeah money can be used to buy goods and services

[graceful burrow]

It's food service

I jus wanna work a desk job

[manic torrent]

yeah desk job ftw

but you gotta eat.

[graceful burrow]

Says who

[limpid fern]

Idk man crawling in the attics of millionaires is pretty cool

[manic torrent]

I mean you can stop eating, but it will shorten your life.

[graceful burrow]

I undervolted my i7-10870h today

[graceful burrow]

Is that a custom repair kit or something

[graceful burrow]

I've never been a fan of clear acrylic cases I won't lie

[manic torrent]

oh, I'm not generally either - but it was cheap and I needed something 🙂

[graceful burrow]

That's fair I've been in that boat too

[manic torrent]

just a handy mount thing for some of my tools

[full fossil]

Ah I see

[graceful burrow]

I find it's just too brittle of a material in the long run

[full fossil]

Man I did 100 watt sustained at 83 celcius on cpu with 34 c ambients

I am amazed at cooling this laptop has

[manic torrent]

oh, if I was using it for actual tools then oh yeah, but RC stuff generally isn't as violent

[graceful burrow]

That's definitely true

I'd just be breaking out my ifixit pouch kek
I always reach for that kit first

[full fossil]

iFixit is expensive

I use a generic Amazon brand

[graceful burrow]

It's only let me down once, with the driver being too thick to fit down a screw hole
Bought a gamersnexus kit after that

[manic torrent]

ehh, good tools are worth it if you use them enough

[graceful burrow]

Big true

[full fossil]

I live in india , so yeh iFixit doesn’t deliver here

[graceful burrow]

Lifetime warranty and a feel better than what you've got guaranteed

And every bit you could ever want

[manic torrent]

I have a huge toolbox full of actual tools for when things get serious

[full fossil]

And I don’t want to pay almost 40 dollars for just prying tools set

[graceful burrow]

I work on computers at friends houses a lot so having it so handy is elite

[full fossil]

I see

[manic torrent]

I don't go anywhere 🙂

[full fossil]

Yeh for regular users is might fine

[graceful burrow]

i was watching some electrician guy replace a breaker panel (random yt recommendation) and his fancy multimeter had a thing he slots a probe into so he can use 1 hand to hold both, i replicated it on my cheap $15 walmart multimeter using a washer and a plastic hdd slide, macgyver'd that shit.

if i needed a $200 multimeter id get one but the $15 one is good for my occasional use and i wanted a fancy probe holder on it

https://www.cdw.com/product/nvidia-t400-graphics-card-t400-2-gb/6636238?pfm=srh

[lucid echo]

Any particular reason you're going for a workstation card?

[lethal copper]

Oh no

I am building a pc and I think I can’t get SSD heatsinn off

[polar fern]

because my thinkcentre is a workstation 😉

[lethal copper]

All of my screws are too big for it and I’m afraid if I try any longer it will strip the screw

Is it fine to run it without a heat sink?

😟

[limpid fern]

yes

[polar fern]

wah?

[limpid fern]

you can run an ssd without the heatsink

[lethal copper]

It’s a bloody name NVMe

So I think I’ll have to somehow get the goddamn heat sink off

[limpid fern]

what are you trying to do?

[lethal copper]

gethe stupid ssd heatsink off

the thing's stuck and seems on the verge of stripping and becoming useless

[limpid fern]

why?

[lethal copper]

because I can't instal; the ssd with it on now can I

f it, future me problem it is

[thick willow]

Hey

[limpid fern]

hi?

[thick willow]

Im just wondering, if the Xbox series x could run 4k 120 fps at 500$ price
Why dont we buy the xbox and take out its cpu and gpu, wouldn’t that make value ?

[limpid fern]

you cant take out an xbox's cpu and gpu

[thick willow]

Oh

I thoght

[polar fern]

anyways is that an ok graphics card?

[thick willow]

What graphics card

[polar fern]

https://www.cdw.com/product/nvidia-t400-graphics-card-t400-2-gb/6636238?pfm=srh

[lucid echo]

If that's your price range and you're trying to do workstation-specific tasks that are blocked on consumer GPUs, I'd say it's good, but you're gaming, I'd look elsewhere

[limpid fern]

id ook at used parts if i were you

[polar fern]

nah i need new

[thick willow]

@polar fern there is benchmarks about it on youtube

[polar fern]

oh neat

[limpid fern]

why?

[polar fern]

because i am on fixed income and i cant just buy stuff with no backing from the seller/manufacturer

what about this one?

https://www.compsource.com/buy/4X60Y70140/Lenovo-1223/?src=F

[lucid echo]

What are you wanting to do with the GPU?

[polar fern]

i am planning to get the ryzen cpu with the 6 core 12 threads but it has no igpu so i need a graphics card - general use games dvd youtube two displays

[lethal copper]

I need help

2 backplates came with my cooler

[lucid echo]

Consider looking at the G series of AMD CPUs

Integrated graphics

[lethal copper]

Both have “PBT +25%GF” on the back but in different places and one is “Cavity no 3” and another “Cavity no ]”

[limpid fern]

maybe get a laptop?

[polar fern]

hah yes buy a $1-2k laptop when i just want a $100-$200usd card

[lethal copper]

The manual shows 2 backplates and hints that they are for different sockets but I don’t think the cavity I one has a 4 on it, which is the number with which LGA1700 backplate is marked

Is LGA1700 screws longer?

Only difference between the plates is that one has longer screws

[limpid fern]

so you have everything else already?

[polar fern]

@lucid echo i have the top tier G series that this board works with - i want the extra cores

[lethal copper]

Guys please I need help D:

[limpid fern]

i thought you were getting everything brand new mb

[lethal copper]

Does LGA1700 have longer screws

[polar fern]

if i had known at the time that this setup would take 2 years to put together because of pricing and parts availability i would have gone with the cpu/gpu from the outset

[lucid echo]

~$150 is a tough price range for GPUs if you're not willing to buy used

[polar fern]

i dont care about the price as much

it just needs to be as good or better as the integrated graphics i have now

[limpid fern]

how bout an a1000 for like 3k

[hollow zealot]

I mean there's always the 3050 /s

[polar fern]

its a low power small form factor - 60 watts is about the max and it needs to be low profile

[kindred zodiac]

well if you ever feel like going used the gtx 1050 lp is a good option

[autumn phoenix]

Hey guys wasn't sure where to ask. Noob here. I want a thermal material to stick to an external phone cooler. What do you recommend? It needs to not be "sticky" on the phone side or can I just use any thermal material and generic glue? Because looking for themal pads etc... All brings up 10mm by 10mm pads or thermal blocking curtains -_- is there a name or term I should be looking for ? any help would be appreciated. I know Linus did a vid on the copper heatsink water cooler things and they included some heatsink material not even sure what it is or if that's suitable. How do you get hold of that graphite rubber stuff?

[polar fern]

you could just use alcohol to remove the goo off the glass

[limpid fern]

thermal pads is what i would use

[autumn phoenix]

The blue things?

[limpid fern]

yes

[kindred zodiac]

agree

thats the better

[autumn phoenix]

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/155026836551?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=OgOf1j6iTFq&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=e5x_xnhjqcc&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Would this be the sort?

And it's not sticky? I see its used to seal a heatsink and sort of glue it together.

Ofc it's needs to be detachable

[lethal copper]

And now I start the scary process of figuring out how much thermal paste I need 😭

[polar fern]

the pad itself would use clamping pressure to stay on the device

no need for adhesive

[autumn phoenix]

Ahh so the pads aren't sticky great to know haha I've never used this stuff

Tysm

[polar fern]

some come with adhesive applied

as to not fall off

but DIY ones may come "dry"

some applications like motors and stuff need to be electrically isolated but thermally connected to a housing or external heat dissipation mechanism

you dont want anything goopy

[kindred zodiac]

what is a endocrinologist?

[polar fern]

someone who specializes in hormonal systems of the body

[kindred zodiac]

hmm

[limpid fern]

i understand the tv but why sonos?

[polar fern]

fancy

[kindred zodiac]

music on the whole clinic

[vapid smelt]

To throw raves

[kindred zodiac]

most of fancy clinics in my country, for example my dentist, has music in the waiting room and in the rooms

actually very nice

[polar fern]

just gonna ask: are you ok? health wise etc? endocrine stuff can be very terrible and scary

[limpid fern]

yea but sonos?

[polar fern]

yay

[limpid fern]

hrt?

[kindred zodiac]

mayby its easier for controlling and configure

[vapid smelt]

Hologram ray tubes

[limpid fern]

ig its easier than an amp, cables and speakers

[kindred zodiac]

witch hormones are u replacing?

i see

oh

now I don't see

[vapid smelt]

I need to get my blood drawn to check my thyroid levels today

[polar fern]

ah ok, thats rough buddy -_-

[kindred zodiac]

mayby i'm stupid, but why replacing if u not trans?

biology is not my thing

[limpid fern]

I got blood drawn today for a donation

[kindred zodiac]

oh

[vapid smelt]

To change their body

[polar fern]

so the Nvidia T600 4GB mini DP*4 is not quite as good as the igpu i have now -.-

[limpid fern]

i mean cmon gamers, wasting time and not doing work for other people and then using what you earned to pay more rich people cmon man u being selfish

[polar fern]

but it is good in a bunch of areas

[odd nebula]

it has an actual fancy clock on the wall ofc its fancy

[polar fern]

109.1 GFLOPS (1:16) FP64 (double) performance 53.40 GFLOPS (1:32) < ---can someone tell me what this means?

[odd nebula]

the walls aren't corners either!

[limpid fern]

just cuz its roman numerals doesnt make it fncy

[odd nebula]

fancier than me

[kindred zodiac]

@quartz bluffcan I ask u someting, I'm not transphobic or something similar but wanted to know, why u changing gender. I always got confused everytime someone says that they are trans.

[limpid fern]

as someone who dabbles in architectural design, it makes a room feel more open

[polar fern]

roman numerals is like keeping part of a dead language alive no big deal

[limpid fern]

yet we have like 100 languages in the world

also our letters are roman

a-z is roman

[kindred zodiac]

hmm

but like, how do u know u have gender dysphoria

[polar fern]

@kindred zodiac trans is basically the body gender and the brain gender do not match. it can cause what is know nas gender dysphoria, which can lead to depression, suicidal thoughts, and inability to "plug in" to the social world

[limpid fern]

transgender people feel like they just wernt born in the right body and go through ways to help them feel more comfortable with themselves

[night heron]

based

[limpid fern]

males are cringe

[kindred zodiac]

fair enough I guess

[night heron]

disagree

[polar fern]

humans in general are cringe

[limpid fern]

life is cringe

[kindred zodiac]

I respect but 100% understand it

[kindred zodiac]

just do a hard reset

[polar fern]

@kindred zodiac you know those movies where people are transported into another person's body? its like that but not fictional and the mental/emotional conflicts of identity are very detrimental to the person's wellbeing

[kindred zodiac]

oh

[limpid fern]

thats what nukes are for my friend

[kindred zodiac]

in that sense it makes sense

[polar fern]

i know several trans people IRL and pre-transition they were in a very bad place in their personal lives, and now, while not being 100% all good are in a much better position to take care of themselves and build a social web that makes sense for them

[kindred zodiac]

I think I never meet a trans people

[vapid smelt]

Cat

[polar fern]

you have met a trans person, trust me

[kindred zodiac]

free knifes on csgo and free stuff on mmos

probably

well, I once saw a person on the beach and was confused on wtf is that person gender

[polar fern]

well that can be something else

[kindred zodiac]

it was like being both gender

[polar fern]

people can be outwardly androgynous, meaning they havre phyiscal apperance of both male and female

[fossil frost]

so? whats your point? its none of your business, and doesnt affect you in any sort of way... so... why concern yourself with it?

[kindred zodiac]

no

but before talking, see context pls

[kindred zodiac]

.

[graceful burrow]

O fuk

[fossil frost]

context doesnt matter, your statement stood on its own... it doesnt matter who they were or what they were

[polar fern]

the norms of gender appearance and behavior and hobbies annd stuff can often stick out when differing

ugreen hehe

i have seen some bad ugreen reviews, but not for that thing

usually its the usba A to other

[fossil frost]

ugreen are very polarising... their products are either perfect, or utter shit

[polar fern]

yes

[fossil frost]

depends on which factory they came from, and on what day of the week

[unique roost]

Yes

That's how pools work

[misty scarab]

I am using DaggerHashimoto and the total power of everyone using Dagger is 42 TH/s

It's socialism

[misty scarab]

good then I will mine for a pool

[lucid echo]

You have no choice

Also, dagger is not a pool, it’s a mining algo

[misty scarab]

yes

I am using it on the pool im on tho

[lucid echo]

Have you done power consumption calculators? For most people, mining is not profitable rn

[night heron]

then ill go to a more reputable pool

my PSU is only 600w

cant use that much power compared to things like AC

[lucid echo]

That’s not how it works

[vapid smelt]

ACs aren't Running 24/7

[misty scarab]

mine runs close to that

during summer

[lucid echo]

You need to determine how many hashes per watt you’re calculating and compare that to your electricity cost 99% chance you’re losing money right now

[misty scarab]

Im avg 60 MH/s

cost of electrcity is 0.09 - 0.12 in my area

its on the cheaper side in my part of the country

[lucid echo]

USD?

[misty scarab]

yes

0.09 USD per kilowatt hour

[lucid echo]

And what’s the total power draw of your GPU? And how much more AC are you using to combat its heat output?

[misty scarab]

I dont need any AC to combat its heat output, the ac is just to keep the house habitable in this summer weather

the fans on the gpu keep it cool without AC, pulling around 200w

my gpu sits around 60c with the AC off

[vapid smelt]

200watt space heater

[lucid echo]

Your computer is generating heat that’s being dumped into your house

[misty scarab]

not a lot of heat

If you have your AC on at all, it’s combating that heat

[vapid smelt]

Once your house hits x degrees your ac kicks on

[misty scarab]

window ac

its on at my command

[kindred zodiac]

spotify has a eq now

nice

[misty scarab]

i use amazon music unlimited

its 8.99 a month for me when spotify is 9.99

maybe bc im prime

and amazon music unlimited has 360, 3d, dolby atmos, etc

[misty scarab]

free heat in the winter?

hahaha

[vapid smelt]

And summer

[misty scarab]

ill sit by my pc when its -20c and see how much heat it puts out

you will pay for my forstbite amputatoion medical bills

im making 1,33 usd per day right now

[lucid echo]

Before electricity costs

Just put it into a calculator, ignoring AC costs you’re making about $13/month

[misty scarab]

i only need 0.0002 more BTC before nicehash lets me withdraw to a external wallet. than I can use a better mining program

with more fair fees

and ill mine for ETH because btc is meh

[vapid smelt]

Every month he can buy a replacement fan for his GPU

[lucid echo]

You’re mining ETH right now, Nicehash is just paying you in BTC

[misty scarab]

they're meant to run at full speed tho

they are rated for it

[misty scarab]

yeah thats the sad part

[lucid echo]

After the extra AC costs you’re probably netting about $8/month assuming you run 24/7 and the pool is always at peak efficiency (it’s not)

[misty scarab]

DaggerHashimoto on NiceHash's pool is currently at 42 TH/s combined\

[kindred zodiac]

3 months free

[vapid smelt]

A tube of thermal paste per month in profit

[kindred zodiac]

will try it

[misty scarab]

I had Amazon Music Prime

but I honestly prefer Unlimited over spotify

[lucid echo]

I use tidal. High quality, better recommendation algorithm, awesome song credits system, pays artists WAY more than any other platform.

[misty scarab]

and its also 1 dollar cheaper for me

[kindred zodiac]

I use to use tidal

[misty scarab]

does tidal have waze integration

[kindred zodiac]

but the software on mobile was quite buggy

[misty scarab]

and Auto support

[lucid echo]

Who tf uses waze

[kindred zodiac]

ye

[misty scarab]

I use waze because it tells me more than google maps does

[kindred zodiac]

wtf is waze

[graceful burrow]

Maps but for phones from 2014

[misty scarab]

no?

Waze tells you construction and traffic n stuff

and it works outside of big cities unlike google which only seems to work in metro areas

[graceful burrow]

So does Google maps kek

[misty scarab]

I never had google maps tell me there was a police officer running radar either

[lucid echo]

Is running your GPU at full boar and dumping heat into your room worth $8/month to you?

[graceful burrow]

I live in a town of less than 10k and Google maps works great

[lucid echo]

It tells me every time, Apple Maps too

[graceful burrow]

Traffic and construction too

[misty scarab]

Apple Maps is just trash

I know more iphone users who use google maps

[lucid echo]

If I’ve learned anything from our conversation so far it’s that you definitely know what you’re talking about

[graceful burrow]

This for real kek

[misty scarab]

Every time I used it it was terrible

does Tidal also have CarPlay integration?

[kindred zodiac]

@misty scarab amazon is more expensive than spotify

[misty scarab]

not for me

Spotify for me is 9.99 and amazon unlimited is 8.99 for me

[lucid echo]

Yes

[kindred zodiac]

for me its the oposite

[misty scarab]

but no waze integration kek

[kindred zodiac]

and 8.99 for duo

[graceful burrow]

Who would want to integrate with waze lmao

[lucid echo]

I wouldn't know, no one has used that app for 6 years

[misty scarab]

many people use it

[lucid echo]

And, btw, it does

[graceful burrow]

Tommy is the last waze user lmao

[lucid echo]

Also the last home ETH miner

[graceful burrow]

He mines eth?
Kek

[misty scarab]

how much is TIDAL per month

[graceful burrow]

Sounds Googleable to me

[lucid echo]

And he didn't do any wattage/cost calculations, doesn't realize he's netting, best-case scenario, maybe $10/month

[lucid echo]

Anywhere from free to 9.99 to 19.99/month depending on the features

[misty scarab]

8.99 / Month for Amazon Music Unlimited

[lucid echo]

While also paying the artists you listen to a fraction of the amount

[misty scarab]

so far unlimited is the cheapest

[vapid smelt]

Amazon music is included with Amazon prime

[misty scarab]

cheaper than spotify

[misty scarab]

Amazon Music Prime is, not Unlimited

Amazon Music Prime has ~2million songs and Unlimited has around 90 million

[stray apex]

tidal's mqa is probably not worth it

[lucid echo]

You can pay for a non-MQA lossless option

[stray apex]

a service that offers a more standard lossless format like FLAC is likely a better bet

[lucid echo]

...they do though

[misty scarab]

Individual Renews August 22, 2022
$8.99/month

I think if you have amazon prime u get a discount on unlimited

[lucid echo]

Tidal offers lossless 1.4mbps as well as MQA 5-10mbps

[feral wedge]

Lazy

[stray apex]

apparently some of their hi-fi stuff is in mqa

[misty scarab]

cause in my settings I have
Prime Plan
Monthly $6.99

[lucid echo]

That wouldn't make any sense, because they charge twice as much for the MQA plan

[kindred zodiac]

I'm testing amazon unlimited against spotify with my favorite album rn and the difference is 0 and if not 0, is near 0

[stray apex]

mqa doesn't make sense lmao

[lucid echo]

I don't see any issue with it

[stray apex]

yeah, it doesn't really matter for like 99.9% of people

[kindred zodiac]

and tidal, unless u have a really high quality setup, same stuff

[misty scarab]

does spotify use Dolby Atmos

[kindred zodiac]

dud, does ur hearphones suport dolby atmos?

[misty scarab]

yes

and so does my phone speakers

[lucid echo]

I use Tidal for the recommendation algorithm, the credits system, and the artist payouts. hifi quality is #4 on the list of things I love about it

[kindred zodiac]

my phone supports

[manic moon]

Only apps I know with Dolby support are Tidal and Apple music

[stray apex]

goldensound at one point tested their hi-fi tier and found it to be mqa with a flag removed
