how would you guys rate a pc with ryzen 5 5500 RTX 3070 hyperx 16gb 3600mhz ram crucial m.2 ssd 7700mb/s

like slightly high end?

[jovial jay]

Its high end

[manic torrent]

That's close enough to what I'm using right now, and I was playing FH5 in 4k on high before.

5500 is a weird choice, but eh, it's not awful.

A 5600X is a better fit for the other specs

[dusty rune]

[dusty rune]

yeah it should work fine

you might want to upgrade to 16gb of ram down the line

[fleet wing]

Yeah i know but its just for school so i need long battery life and a light gpu for gaming like a 3050

Are there cheaper options?

[full fossil]

Not sure if I should go with a custom built PC or a gaming laptop. Portability is not that important, but I like how I Get the same GPU with the monitor & keyboard already built in for less $

Reading a lot on reddit, and its mostly 20% performance loss in laptops, but you gain that portability

[lucid echo]

Keep in mind you'll only ever get 1-2 hours of game time on battery, so you'll be tethered to a power outlet most of the time
They're also not upgradable at all when it comes to the CPU/GPU/monitor, so when it comes time for an upgrade, you'll be spending double or triple than what you would have with a desktop upgrade

if you're not gaming on the go (or the games you play aren't reaction time sensitive) you can always get a desktop, then a laptop later and use parsec or steam to stream your desktop

or if you're playing sth like valorant those can run on most modern laptops just fine

[full fossil]

The thing is, I got a PS5. But I think I’d be happier with a PC

Since gaming on a Mac is not a thing

[vital estuary]

depending on the games you play

[full fossil]

And the peripherals that I’d like to use don’t work well with Apple too. However windows is absolute donk, but this stuff would work there

[vital estuary]

but pc is prob the best option

[full fossil]

I was hyped for Spider-Man and now that hype is over

Don’t really see the point in consoles

[stoic beacon]

Plug and play is nice

[full fossil]

And I hate buying apple stuff, so going back to android & windows might be the best option

[full fossil]

Sure is, but I rarely play anyway

[fleet wing]

Is windows 11 any good?

[stoic beacon]

Yes

[fleet wing]

Also i heard it had some compatibility isseus with some games

[vital estuary]

i think it has issues with some uwp stuff

[fleet wing]

Ok cus in a store right now these laptops are both the same price

[vital estuary]

one would probably be a generation above the other

[undone cloud]

anyone here want my steam deck? 512gb model

[stoic beacon]

What made you change your mind?

Oh, your animated avatar is sick

[undone cloud]

I don't have time to play games on the go anymore and by the time I will it will have been a few years so there very well could be better options on the market

thanks

the offer stands until it gets automatically cancelled since I already offered it to everyone I know

[dense ice]

weird question but:

Are there people out there that still game (non fps games) on 24.5" 1920x1080 beacuse 1440p 27" is just to much screen? i might be an odd one out but ive tried 2560x1440p for some time but it always ends up in the closet and i pull out the 1920x1080 over and over again

[fleet wing]

So it should be good now?

Does anyone know much about Ebay? ive just made a new account and i am trying to buy something for a few dollars, but it keeps rejecting my card saying try another payment method, even though it has hundreds of dollars on it, and my phone number and email are verified

[inland oracle]

i can't get onto outlook
keeps saying something went wrong

and apparently i can't get onto gov.uk either? says that can't be reached

[stoic beacon]

Do you have internet?

[inland oracle]

of course

i can get onto other sites

and the outlook error is like a custom site one but the gov.uk error is a basic chrome error

can you guys get onto them?

on downdetector it looks like outlook is having a lot of problems rn but gov.uk's status page says that site is fine

Does anyone else ever get confused with their psu cables and where everything connects to

[stoic beacon]

I used to, until I read the manual

[inland oracle]

the connectors usually say on them

[cold pasture]

random question
can i use my gpus plugged with riser(4lines pci-e) to do machine learning (tensorflow and stuff) with them
i k i can't use them for rendering cuz of bandwidth and stuff
ik i can use them for mining, but i'm thinking what if i turn it into a machine learning rig, when the mining crashes

[vague stump]

is it bad to type with 3 fingers

i usually just use my 2 fingers and a thumb

[cold pasture]

yes

[vague stump]

i got a 100+ wpm but idk if i should i try learning more fingers

[random crag]

Ended up grabbing the odin. Emulators have been pretty solid.

Might be a better, cheaper option for you.

[vague stump]

why so

my speed is decent

and it would be a pain in the ass to learn more

[cold pasture]

cuz you will have to use soo much brain power to keep up

i don't even think about my keyboad when i type

[vague stump]

i dont think too

its all muscle memory for alphabets

[regal forum]

with both hands i get 50wpm

[vague stump]

but for the punctation i am slow

[vague stump]

how many fingers

[cold pasture]

i recommend you learning touch typing
there's a cool free course on typingclub website

[regal forum]

6

[vague stump]

i can touch type but with 3 fingers

[cold pasture]

i get 60 relaxed, 80 when i'm hyper focused( my hyper focuse is not that intense, i'm just dumb)

[regal forum]

so how is this dude getting 100 with 3 fingers

[vague stump]

lol

[regal forum]

it makes no sense

[vague stump]

ill send u my typing

wait let me turn on obs

[regal forum]

okay

[vague stump]

or u wanna see my monkey type

[regal forum]

you have a monkey too?

[vague stump]

i can show u on vc

its a typing site

[regal forum]

oh lol

[cold pasture]

keep playing on piano with 3 finders

[regal forum]

i thought you taught your monkey how to type

[regal forum]

i believe you

but thats insane, good job

[cold pasture]

i think you will pass the 150 barrier if you use all your finders

just saying

[vague stump]

i dont think so

cause i am so used to the fibger gymnastics with my2 index

i feel my other would be useless

[cold pasture]

i was 30wpm before learning touch typing

[stoic beacon]

Not if you practice. I hit 160 WPM on Monkeytype yesterday during my daily practice. You just have to get used to using all of your fingers

[inland oracle]

websites goin down mane

[full fossil]

@stoic beacon @inland oracle yeah ik I’m just super anxious to actually do it bc I always overthink

my build isn’t finished yet anyway, Q1 2023

[vague stump]

my max is like 120 but i feel its my limit with 2+1 fingers

[stoic beacon]

You do not get 120 WPM with chicken pecking.

[vague stump]

wdym chicken pecking

[stoic beacon]

Two finger typing

[vague stump]

do you want to see proof lol

[past egret]

we call that raptor typing

[stoic beacon]

You might as well submit it to Guiness World Records at that point because that means you would have beaten the world record, by a substantial amount.

[vague stump]

i might not be able to get 120 on spot but i can easily get a 100 + with only a thumb and 2 fingers rn

[stoic beacon]

I want to see proof, yeah lol

[vague stump]

ok whats ur satisfactory wpm

110? 30 secs?

2 fingers and a thumb

[stoic beacon]

Go for 60 secs, let's see what you can pull off

[cold pasture]

it's not about wpm, it's about best practice

[vague stump]

60 is tough lol

wait i am not talking about full sentences 100+ in words

[stoic beacon]

I know, but he's straight up lying about 120 WPM with chicken pecking lol

[vague stump]

i told u i am bad with punctuations

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, no punctuation

Just words

[cold pasture]

nO uPPperCasses

[vague stump]

.

shift is a night mare for me

hhk checks dms

[cold pasture]

saw it (it was 95wpm)

[vague stump]

i am not lying T-T

[finite cloud]

I can do 73-ish on my laptop for 60 seconds using monkey type

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, 95 sounds reasonable for somebody chicken pecking for their whole life

I'd believe that one. Not 120 though.

[cold pasture]

even tho, they can't type commas and upper cases on that speed

[vague stump]

i said 120 max

[stoic beacon]

True, which is pretty important for most typing situations

[vague stump]

not 1 min tho

[stoic beacon]

I wonder what my WPM is with punctuation turned on....brb

[vague stump]

ethan wanna do a type racer

[cold pasture]

wait.. i'm always using punctuations... let me turn them off ..brb

[stoic beacon]

Sure, that sounds fun, what site do you use for that?

[vague stump]

typeracer.com

i will suck at punctuation so lets just do words

[stoic beacon]

https://play.typeracer.com?rt=2c1to4obrz

Okay, we'll start with just words

Never used this site before, so we'll see if I know how to run it

[vague stump]

wait a second

ill send a link

[stoic beacon]

Okay

[vague stump]

join this

https://play.typeracer.com?universe=dictionary&rt=1fvxax6cxc

[past egret]

didnt monkey type had a race feature

i played the beta

[vague stump]

ok i fked on first word

[cold pasture]

i'm blue

[stoic beacon]

We're all "blue"

[cold pasture]

lol

[stoic beacon]

But yeah, I'm the one with 139 wpm in the scoreboard there

[vague stump]

nice lol

[cold pasture]

i'm the one with 74

[stoic beacon]

That's why you should practice touch typing

[vague stump]

touch typing is not seeing ur keyboard right?

[stoic beacon]

It'll save you a lot of time across...many avenues. Discord, work, pretty much everything you use a computer for

Yeah, but in particular, using the proper fingers for hitting specific keys

[cold pasture]

just believing

[vague stump]

i dont look at my keyboard

for alphabets

[stoic beacon]

Like, my index finger obviously should never hit the Z key. My ring/pinkie takes care of that

[cold pasture]

every finder has about 3 keys (4-5 on the edges, and more if you're also counting numbers)

theoretically you can press 10 keys in a sub 100ms

[vague stump]

my right index handles the right part of keyboard and my L thumb and L index handles the left part of keyboard

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, give one of those typing trainers a shot, and it'll have you doing full touch typing in no time

[cold pasture]

i always recommend typingClub site

it has a pretty good course

[foggy stream]

oh sick, cool

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, typingClub is a good spot to start

I always say Monkeytype, but that's more for practicing after you already have the technique

[half shadow]

I recommend nitro Type

[cold pasture]

any ideas about this
i think it's the same as mining right? most computations only happens inside the gpu right?
bandwidth shouldn't be an issue right

i couldn't find anything on google

[stoic beacon]

@vague stump Holy crap, I just saw your DM

That's actually...nuts lol. Color me impressed

[ionic abyss]

when upgrading do I need to populate both open ran slots or can I do just one

also would mixing 2666 and 3200 ram be bad

[limpid fern]

Depends on the combo but usually no both kits would run at 2666

[ionic abyss]

a secondstick of 3200 8gb will run me 22 used

[limpid fern]

What 2 sets are you using

Brand and model please

[ionic abyss]

hyperx hp omen

3200/3733

hyperx 2666

[foggy stream]

just go hard @ typeracer

[ionic abyss]

3 sticks 3200

[soft swan]

If I do a clean install of windows 10 instead of upgrade can I still use my windows 8.1 OEM key

[foggy stream]

i only upgraded from windows 7 when i finally decided

'i want to play halo'

[ionic abyss]

just grab a key at kinguin or the like

[soft swan]

Yeah same for me games don’t work as well on it

[ionic abyss]

$10-25

[foggy stream]

big rip

[soft swan]

Thing is idk if I should upgrade or do clean install like is it gonna work on my pc

[foggy stream]

the upgrade worked just fine for me

ymmv

[soft swan]

Cool I’m gonna try it just hope i don’t need a new windows key cause I’m meaning to upgrade my pc anyways

[median karma]

[foggy stream]

i just upgraded my bootleg windows 7 from yrs and yrs ago, windows didnt give me any problems. but again ymmv

[soft swan]

Mhmm ig it might work then but my pc is kinda low specs intel celeron 4 gig ram I dont know if that’s enough for windows 10 to work well

[stoic beacon]

Ouch...

[soft swan]

Yeah that’s why I’m gonna upgrade to an i7 and a nice gpu

[polar fern]

watching the gaming setup vid

Right on time for my birthday :)

It’s still facebook yeah but I have a meta account now which hopefully has less info on me

[polar fern]

youre deleting the zuckerverse?

[finite cloud]

Yes

[polar fern]

nice

[ionic abyss]

how big a difference is there in preformance between 2666 and 3200 ddr4

[polar fern]

depends on the processor really

[ionic abyss]

12700k

[polar fern]

and use?

and the rating?

[ionic abyss]

mostly gaming

[polar fern]

CL number

[ionic abyss]

cl18 ibelive

[polar fern]

hmmm the 2666 would be better at CL16 but if its less expensive that should be fine.

and of course the module size will determine cost

what kinda gaming?

[ionic abyss]

well i got a stick of 3200 and the 2666 for $45 + 6 shipping

to upgrade the current 2 sticks of 3200

8gb sticks

[polar fern]

one stic of 3200 and one of 2666?

[foggy stream]

fx-8320E, 8 gigs of ram and a 1080

[granite tinsel]

i passed

[foggy stream]

xD i feel u friend

[polar fern]

WOO

[granite tinsel]

no longer am i confined by that green badge

[polar fern]

green badge?

[granite tinsel]

i can cram my honda civic full with as many friends as i want

[ionic abyss]

so i assume $51 for 16gb of used ram including a 2year squaretrade warranty isnt a bad deal right?

[polar fern]

not bad at all

[dusky egret]

Anthony’s joy at mining losses is giving me life

[ionic abyss]

would prefer all 3200sticks

[granite tinsel]

new drivers in BC have to put this green N on the back of their car

[polar fern]

and if its a 3200/2666 mix it will just slow to 2666

so thats not a big deal

[ionic abyss]

i also see a stick of the 3200 pulled from a omen desktop listed for $20

[polar fern]

i'd stay with 2 modules or use 4 modules, not 3

dual split channel is best with symmetrical slot use

[ionic abyss]

hp aquires hyperx then requires hyper x ram for upgrades to keep warranty

put in non hyperx ram and ouu void your warranty

you*

[polar fern]

if thats on a consumer tier product thats basically illegal in a lot of places

[hearty spear]

Anthony in today's video is HILARIOUS
HE GETS SO MAD

[polar fern]

you can't require a certain brand of memory unless its like niche or enterprise/datacentre stuff where it actually cna matter

[ionic abyss]

well then throw into the mix that hyperx ram was discontinued and hp disables features in the bios also

if other ram brands are used

[polar fern]

sigh

[ionic abyss]

its how the world works

might be legaly questionable

[polar fern]

like i said - if its consumer tier stuff.... they may attract legal action

[ionic abyss]

only reason i have only 16gb of ram is i saw no reason to wait 2 weeks for hp to put in 32gb of ram on the same pc

[soft swan]

Daam gtx 1080 is a good gpu ,I think I’ll try a clean install since I might beupgrading the pc with an i7 and 3070/80 so I think it should be aight ig

[polar fern]

my plan is to go 8 gig x4 up from the current 4gig x4

[ionic abyss]

i love this 3080

[polar fern]

a 3080 wouldnt fit in my computer

[ionic abyss]

bounty of one can bring even this pc to a crawl

12700k and 3080 and 16gb of ram and bounty of one will slow to a crawl eventualy

still trying to break the 500k bounty i had

[soft swan]

32 gig rams prolly better to use with that gpu imo

[polar fern]

ehh its fine

[ionic abyss]

right now i belive 64gb graphics card is the best you can find

[polar fern]

gotta love when folks are like "just spend more money!"

[ionic abyss]

oh

it still costs money

"buy this product and save!"

no.. NOT buying = saving

There isn't any card from NVIDIA or AMD that has this much VRAM

[polar fern]

lets all go see what CDW has

there is that radeon pro with nvmes onboard so you can stick a tb+ on it

So i have a little question

can I overflow the time clock on a 32 bit windows installation by changing the time manually to the max storable value?

[leaden gale]

Since when is Windows based on or derived from Unix?

[tired glade]

wait, what, how Windows is Unix based in any form?

[unborn flare]

Oh my bad it isn't completely Unix based but does seem to use some of its derivatives

[tired glade]

Microsoft wrote itown software from scratch

or buys it

[weak bridge]

did u guys know that microsoft made most of the popular fonts

[polar fern]

windows is based on a trolling grift idea

[tired glade]

that was dos

[polar fern]

no hehe

[tired glade]

windows is just stolen apple os

[polar fern]

they bought dos

[weak bridge]

you cant steal the basic idea of having graphics on the screen

[tired glade]

yea, that thing... you can

[weak bridge]

its like how u cant patent shovels

2 people can come up with the idea of shovels simultaneously

[leaden gale]

Mfw Windows is called Windows because it was just a window manager at first

[polar fern]

you cant patent shovels .. bro

[tired glade]

Apple panented graphical interface and mouse

[weak bridge]

wait can u

[polar fern]

uh... yes

[weak bridge]

wtf

and then people cant make shovels?

[leaden gale]

Pretty much anything is patentable if you tried hard enough

[weak bridge]

am i thinking of trademarks

[polar fern]

"people cant make shovels" bro are we all suddenly blacksmiths?

[leaden gale]

Shovels with those specific design traits covered by the patent, no. Not for 20 years at least.

[tired glade]

there are few very good documentaries about windows 1.0 and all drama about it with apple

[polar fern]

pentium with mmx

[unborn flare]

It do be using UTC timestamps and 32 bit systems will overflow

[tired glade]

yea

[tired glade]

I think, that bug long time fixed

you can get dos and do it there

but you motherboard can die

[unborn flare]

On 64 bit systems yes on 32 bit systems it seems to exist for many programs.

[tired glade]

dos will be easier to do it

[unborn flare]

VM?

[tired glade]

you can do it like that

if you don't want to summon deamons and ancient spirit while voodoo magicing dos on modern cpu

[unborn flare]

Wait DoS is 16 bit

[tired glade]

yep

[hearty spear]

dos that most of us know was 16 bit

[tired glade]

there was 32 bit version

[hearty spear]

And during Win95/98 the "DOS" there was patched to be quasi 32 bit

(And WinME I suppose, but we don't talk about that.)

[tired glade]

oh,right, dosbox is real dos

[unborn flare]

Yea yea i remember ofc

[tired glade]

ME had MS dos 8.0 - the last dos

[unborn flare]

It is only works on 32 bit windows thought

[tired glade]

man, why you want to break your os?

[unborn flare]

Legacy 16 bit support

[unborn flare]

Will it break if it's done in a vm

[tired glade]

yes

[unborn flare]

No like the HOST OS

standard thing

[unique roost]

Calm down man context in which he did it is important

[little horizon]

Mountain out of a mole hill much ngl

[lethal copper]

I wonder if it’s possible to hook up my server to a telegram bot and make it send me stuff like high importance logs 🤔

[unique roost]

Yes

[lethal copper]

Although I think for that I would have to integrate it into self hosted apps, for which I would need to actually touch their source code

[unique roost]

Anything is possible

[unborn flare]

Wait what do even become after doing CIS?

[unique roost]

IT and sysadmin is the canonical career path

[lethal copper]

What’s that

[lucid echo]

[tired glade]

haha

[unique roost]

Lol that's what they all say

[lucid echo]

I am the calmest person on this server

[short copper]

probably cause its true

[little horizon]

are you

[unborn flare]

Yea had to check it up

[unique roost]

I wouldn't call a furball that can do mach 1 calm exactly lol

[sonic barn]

Would you buy Intel if performance was better than amd

[unborn flare]

Sanic

[unique roost]

Depends on what you mean by performance and what you mean by better

[little horizon]

Always team blue

[short copper]

ive got a 12700k rn

[little horizon]

lool

[lucid echo]

unnecessarily policing someone who is policing someone else unnecessarily
It’s poliception

[tired glade]

I hope you have good cooler

[little horizon]

I do ;)

[tired glade]

yea, 5800x3d

[little horizon]

Shame only hot air blows through it

[unborn flare]

Team green gonna relate to that soon

[tired glade]

they already, 6900xt is like 100w lower

[unique roost]

It's unavoidable with GPUs

6900xt is 100w lower because it's on TSMC and iirc has fewer transistors

If clocks are lower that helps even more

[tired glade]

what is Samsung 8nm to TSMC second gen 7nm?

[unborn flare]

So we have reached peak efficiency is what you mean?

[unique roost]

Bad

[tired glade]

AMD has higher clock

[lucid echo]

Bigger number always means better

[unique roost]

No just hit the diminishing returns part

Look up dennard scaling

[tired glade]

even if that big number limited

[full fossil]

AMD good

How can I undervolt to get 5ghz

[unborn flare]

The same intel 14nm is to TSMC 7nm

[full fossil]

I’m on 4.5ghz rn

[unique roost]

Leakage current has started plateauing as well

[unborn flare]

I mean you can always change the fundamentals of the GPU to alter the efficiency

[tired glade]

I am more about efficiency than size

[unique roost]

If you mean uarch then yes

[tired glade]

that easier to say than done

[unique roost]

But it's not going to change the power consumption by that much just by the nature of GPUs being so parallel

[unborn flare]

In a huge market? Yes but newer tech can be introduced in parallel too

[tired glade]

Vega is way way better in computing then even 20-series

what better 1080 ti or vega64?

[unique roost]

And they were power hogs too

GPU power consumption will continue increasing as long as they use more transistors

[tired glade]

Vega should be less than 20-series

[unique roost]

Vega didn't have RTX silicon

[tired glade]

56 for sure

but it can rt

[unique roost]

Yeah but much worse than 20 series

[tired glade]

1030 can techically load rt matrix

are people care about rt?

[fossil frost]

an 8086 can load an RT matrix and do RT... any cpu/gpu can, just slowly, and very unoptimised

[leaden gale]

Why do we keep obsessing over real-time RT when, at least from where I'm standing, it doesn't add enough to the gaming experience to pursue at the moment

[pure surge]

bruh i play every game on low settings

[unique roost]

It's a chicken and egg problem

[short copper]

i play most games on medium

[tired glade]

because without RT Nvidia looks even worse

[unique roost]

Add the feature and devs will come

[short copper]

pubg on low usually for frames

[unborn flare]

Yes but performance per watt can still be altered by changing the microarchitecture

[tired glade]

man, they canceled Volta to push RT because they panic around 5700xt

[unique roost]

Yes but not that significantly in GPUs currently

[fossil frost]

because people are very attached to a certain brand, and when that brand shows off something new, people latch on to it and use it as an excuse to say that brand is better than an other brand, even if the technology is pointless

[leaden gale]

[unique roost]

Eh depends I guess actually

[lucid echo]

DLSS pretty marvelous tho

[leaden gale]

Ain't that the truth

[tired glade]

if you need it

[tired glade]

it's like ultra textures in fps game

[unborn flare]

Depends on the task in my opinion specific instruction sets for special applications can improve the efficiency a ton

[lucid echo]

Need it? It's more FPS for the same visual fidelity. That's a want in my book

[fossil frost]

DLSS as a technology, is good, but, it shouldnt have to exist... it only exists to cover nvidia's greed and unwillingness to change their core architecture to make their GPUs actually better for gamers

[leaden gale]

"the same"

That's not how this works, but alright

[vapid smelt]

im so tempted

[unborn flare]

Wait what

[lucid echo]

I knew someone was gonna get on my case for that

[tired glade]

they need to sell some tech to devs outside rt

[fossil frost]

DLSS is a fake performance boost. lets you re-market the same cards as higher performance

[tired glade]

700, oh my

[lucid echo]

"about the same apparent quality/unnoticeable difference in most scenarios" is kinda a mouthful

[leaden gale]

6900 XT is an absolute heist right now

[tired glade]

yes, that is the point

[lucid echo]

and?

[tired glade]

it's still 1,2k in my region

[leaden gale]

Would it have killed you to say "similar"

[pure surge]

gaming x trio was 680 dollars

[unborn flare]

It isn't a performance boost it's just literally more fps for a bit lower fidelity

[short copper]

similar and almost the same arent the same thing

[lucid echo]

Yes, because I build my life force off of pedants correcting me

[tired glade]

940, yea, prices went down

[fossil frost]

from nvidia's point of view, its what they should have done a long time ago... but from a customer point of view, nvidia should have focused on making better gpus

[lucid echo]

porque no los dos?

Even if they built a "better" GPU, the option to use DLSS would improve it even more

[tired glade]

they need to payed devs to promote their product and DLSS is best tech to sell to devs

[unborn flare]

We offer you the power to make less triangles appear as more triangles

[tired glade]

does 30-series have gimmick?

[tired glade]

as long as AMD not getting any love

[lucid echo]

Sounds like a great deal to me

[unborn flare]

Indeed is

[lucid echo]

Like, no matter how powerful the GPU is in raw specs, something like DLSS will always make it better, especially for people not buying the top-of-the-line model

[tired glade]

AMD also does it

[unborn flare]

Man is it true to that tech companies directly affecting the performance growth by artificially creating performance goals and barely reaching them?

[lucid echo]

Yep, it's a bit behind though. They'll catch up soon enough

[unborn flare]

Yea they are at gen 1 rn so i hope the second gen stuff is better

[tired glade]

Borderlands 3

[lucid echo]

Corporations prioritizing profits over everything else? Never!

[lucid echo]

That is a game, yes

[tired glade]

they must, investors will sue them

[unborn flare]

I mean it's not like you can't profit while selling better hardware

[fossil frost]

they are legally obligated to do so

[fossil frost]

investor held companies are legally obligated to maximise profit

[lucid echo]

Yeah, that's kinda the problem lmao

[tired glade]

depends on contract, some of them allow to just make profit

[unborn flare]

Breh just sell the higher performance SKUs for more price to professionals

[ionic abyss]

lol ok this heal 1 per dash + take 1dmg per dash but gain 10% dmg perminatly combo is stupid broken

[fossil frost]

some people in here should never be allowed to run a company, they would be really bad at it

[unborn flare]

Man i wonder if that were not the case would we have 16k VR environments available by now?

[tired glade]

those people most of the time best CEO you can find

[leaden gale]

This is literally called Quadro

[unborn flare]

There isn't a ton of difference in raw computing power usually

[leaden gale]

Except the workstation cards have ultra-high binning, so they're more power efficient

[lucid echo]

Most people running companies should not be allowed to either

[fossil frost]

true, but at least they understand economics and the economy of scale... there are some specific people in here who would run any company straight into the ground immediately

[unborn flare]

Ah yes that's a valid point but i mean like keeping the yearly improvements constrained seems bad

[unborn flare]

Lmao you really that mad at my statement huh?

[hearty spear]

the yearly "Constraints" are primarily:
What can we produce at a good success rate so we don't waste a fuckton of silicon?

[simple berry]

is there not a red version legion 5 banner:(((

[unborn flare]

That's just process limitations the architecture tweaks can still be administered to improve performance on the same process node

Profit motive incentivizes you to innovate just enough to beat out your competitor, so you can produce a better product with as high of margin as possible

then the best choice for you is to delete your account bye

[pure surge]

damn i can say 1 thing and u are all mad for no reason

[stoic beacon]

Yeah, I'd like to support Discord at some point...I used Teamspeak for so long, but Discord made everything way easier

I just don't game as much anymore, so the cost seems to be unnecessary, but if I ever game again...might be worth it

[abstract spruce]

basically i want to install an older dahua system that uses coax cables, i got a complete used set with all adapters, recorder and 8 cameras

The thing is i now need to get the cableing, i want it to be the most reliable system, i have a 400m roll of cat5e and i have already tested some 50m runs where i use 3 pairs for power and 1 pair for coax and it worked for the past month no issue

The thing is i can feel that the cable is warm (~+3C) at the connection sides, so i was thinking should getting a slid copper 4x1.5mm cable for a longer run might be worth it?

For psu i use an atx computer power supply, delta OEM

Will the 4x1.5mm cable be a good investement or should i just install power supplies closer to cameras that are far away from the recorder if possible

[lucid echo]

I use nitro classic for emojis and that’s about it

[full fossil]

Can I have a discord server builder help me rebuild the roles for my server

[stoic beacon]

How much do they charge for that?

[little horizon]

5️⃣

[lucid echo]

I think $5/mo

[stoic beacon]

Oh, that's not bad at all

[lucid echo]

Let’s you define custom tags too, that’s why I’m Sanic#6969

Easier to find friends that way

[stoic beacon]

That's pretty slick

[little horizon]

custom tags are overrated

[stoic beacon]

The point is to finally pay for a software I've used for years

And have better emojis for reacting to stupid things

[little horizon]

[vapid smelt]

Coffee or tea?

[vapid smelt]

i hate both

[full fossil]

Tea

[dull granite]

Tea supermacy also fuck you brits for destoying tea's good image

[tired glade]

just water

[stoic beacon]

Smell wise, coffee. But drink wise, I just go for water and orange juice

[night heron]

green tea > black tea > ice coffee > hot coffee

[cyan vapor]

pepsi max > green tea

[pure surge]

matcha tea>

[fossil frost]

people seem to be forgetting "for me personally, i prefer" before making sweeping statements about something being better than something else

[pure surge]

no im always right

[cyan vapor]

we wouldn't have any arguments on the internet though if people didn't make sweeping statements

it's all misunderstandings, all the way down

[echo ridge]

Nice.

[vapid smelt]

I see you're back to being a failure

[night heron]

[night heron]

i think youre taking my comment about tea and coffee in a discord server a bit too seriously

[fossil frost]

i think people take comments about anything in any scenario too seriously

[stoic beacon]

How dare you

[echo ridge]

Wait I changed it again

[lucid echo]

It’s almost like argumentative people are drawn to internet chat rooms because there’s fewer repercussions for getting on people’s cases about random shit.

Can I get someone on pc to make a template of my discord server

[fossil frost]

got bored today, and found my kids old leappad pro, hasnt been touched for 2 years, all 3 of them have outgrown it now. took it apart to see if there was anything worth salvaging, thought the LCD could be useful, but, no identifier on it, nothing online to say what it was, so, useless... so, decided to have fun and show the kids why they shouldnt mess with LiPo batteries, took the whole lot outside onto the patio, stacked all the parts together, and stabbed the lipo with a screwdriver :D....

PSSSSSSTTTTTTTTFFFFZZZZ!!! 😁

[cyan vapor]

Congratulations on getting 3 kids interested in chemistry / pyromania

[fossil frost]

only a small 1s 3200mah lipo, burned for a good 15 minutes

they all thought it was hilarious

[cyan vapor]

I hope you told them why they keep burning and how bigger batteries are just made up from smaller cells

[fossil frost]

i did, and to demonstrate it, i showed them richard hammonds crash in the electric car, and how it kept burning for 4 days

[cyan vapor]

You crash an electric car and damage the battery and it's going to burn for days

Lol, exactly.

[fossil frost]

oldest (10) likes programming, middle (7) likes more practical maker type building stuff, youngest (5) doesnt have any preference, but asks a LOT of questions, and has just discovered khan academy for kids, and LOVES it

[echo ridge]

Fake news

[fossil frost]

they all LOVE watching the 3D printer move round and do stuff, and they all love sitting next to me while im doing something, or working, they ask questions about why the code im writing is the way it is, and the 10yo can understand the basics of the complex stuff that i have to write for work.. and middle loves to sit with me if im putting circuits together on a breadboard and he loves to pass me components, because it makes him feel like hes had a part in building the particular thing ive just built (and he has a couple of circuit building toys too)

[cyan vapor]

Yep, you sound like a great dad.

[fossil frost]

its not being a great dad, its just making sure that their interests in the future, align with my interests, so we always have something in common, so they dont bore me when they talk to me 😄

[cyan vapor]

Try to get them interested in biotech though, the future might be in there.

[fossil frost]

i wanna put an RFID chip or NFC chip in my hand, probably in the end of 1 finger,

so i can build some stuff to interact with and not tell them, and have it seem like magic 😄

[stoic beacon]

I saw a creative post one time about the future of warning partners of potential STDs by having diagnosed STDs be logged in an NFC chip in the end of....well, somewhere, that will alert other people

[cyan vapor]

People are implanting tiny magnets in their fingertips where the nerve bundle is. So they can detect magnetic and electric fields. That's sort of.. amazing.

[cyan vapor]

Having to carry your medical history in an nfc chip in your dong sounds like a black mirror episode.

[fossil frost]

i didnt make it past the social media/social score ep of black mirror... dont know why, but the show as a whole massively triggered my anxiety and was plunging me into real depression

i wanna watch the rest of it, but, dont want to put myself back in that state

[cyan vapor]

Yep, black mirror is about as dark as it gets.

[fervent glacier]

how much fps should be expected from a 3070 in fortnite with dlss performance and epic settings

[uncut kayak]

depends on your cpu, ram, and what other settings you have on like if you got uh ray tracing on your gonna get like probably 60 max

[vapid smelt]

0 since you should never play fortnite

[uncut kayak]

and what resolution the game is running at

[fervent glacier]

1080p

[uncut kayak]

what fps re you getting tho?

[fervent glacier]

i get like 100-200 in solos

is that normal?

[uncut kayak]

Yeah then thats probably about right?

[fervent glacier]

its only on like 50% gpu util

[uncut kayak]

So? Could be cpu limited or ram limited

[night heron]

fortnite is pretty easy to run

[uncut kayak]

or i mean it could be storage but it really depends when the fps drops

[night heron]

especially at 1080p

[pure surge]

fact

[uncut kayak]

still 100 - 200 fps on max settings (with dlss + no ray tracing) seems about right

[night heron]

and dlss performance so youre basically playing at like 480p

not surprising your gpu is only at 50%

yeah im watching a video of fortnite on a 3070 and theyre getting 150-200fps on epic settings 1080p

[uncut kayak]

Ok so? 100-200 fps seems about right?

[night heron]

yeah seems normal

[echo ridge]

You don't need dlss for fortnite

[uncut kayak]

I mean if your on a 60 hz monitor if you get 60 or 100 or 200 fps its all gonna be the same

[night heron]

yes but also no

[echo ridge]

https://youtu.be/OX31kZbAXsA

[night heron]

depends if your 1% and 0.1% lows are 60+, and having higher fps will still lead to lower input latency and more up to date frames being rendered

[fervent glacier]

im 13 and built my own pc with a 3070..

[echo ridge]

Ok?

[uncut kayak]

Ok but your fps looks fine

[night heron]

but you'll get a smoother experience by limiting your max fps to 3 below your display's max refresh rate, forcing freesync/gsync

[fervent glacier]

ok?

[echo ridge]

Ok

[uncut kayak]

Eh I'd set your max fps a tiny bit higher like 5 fps higher

[night heron]

doing that would be the worst option

[uncut kayak]

but really doesn't matter that much if the game is running and working fine

[fervent glacier]

is an rtx 3070 high end?

[night heron]

because not only are you making your display run without freesync

youre limiting your max fps, increasing system latency

either leave it uncapped or cap it below your max refresh rate

[night heron]

mid range

[echo ridge]

What if you cap it at

[fervent glacier]

what gpu u got

[echo ridge]

^

[night heron]

a 1070

[fervent glacier]

nah its gotta be high end cuz it goes 3070 3080 3090

[night heron]

3070 is midrange

[fervent glacier]

high mid

[woeful minnow]

it is now that the 70 series msrp is $500

[night heron]

it's exactly middle

[fervent glacier]

fair

[manic torrent]

Not really - I mean, it's technically midrange but the reality is it is high

[echo ridge]

50 low 60-70 mid 80-90 high

[uncut kayak]

You don't get how numbers work at all then

[fervent glacier]

^^

[night heron]

it's high because of the increased prices we had due to covid

but it's a midrange performance card

[woeful minnow]

the 3060/ti are midrange

[manic torrent]

and other reasons, but yes

[fervent glacier]

3070 is the first high range

[night heron]

3060ti performs identical to a 3070

[uncut kayak]

Not really

[fervent glacier]

ur dumb

[echo ridge]

3060ti is basically the same as a 3070

[fervent glacier]

no its not

[echo ridge]

Minus 5 percent

[fervent glacier]

+20fps in rd2

[night heron]

no need to throw insults

[vapid smelt]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/375436621450969089/975636162586767400/unknown.png

[manic torrent]

the 3070 plats AAA in 4k high. That isn't midrange.

[uncut kayak]

would not call it high end

[night heron]

the fps it gets has nothing to do with its placement in a product stack

[fervent glacier]

how r 3060s low end bruh

[onyx moth]

Greetings from NYC, I got bit by a fucking Central Park squirrel

[fervent glacier]

ohh for 30 series yh

[night heron]

a 780Ti was a flagship product yet cant play brand new games well

[fossil frost]

something that is incredibly annoying now, and is an unseen side effect of mining moving more and more to FPGA and ASIC, is that you cannot get a FPGA dev board for less than £150, and the barrier to entry to learning FPGA is out of reach for a lot of people now

[fervent glacier]

but out of all the nvidia gpus ever made its high end

[manic torrent]

Point is - it's perspective and context

[night heron]

the 3070 is their midrange card, doesnt mean it doesnt perform well

[echo ridge]

You can say it for any line up

[vapid smelt]

very low end vs nvidias server gpus

[night heron]

3050/3060 = low
3060ti/3070/3070ti = mid
3080/3090 = high
3090ti = halo product

[fervent glacier]

nah like gamer gpus

[echo ridge]

I could debate the 3070ti

[manic torrent]

3070ti is a garbage product

[uncut kayak]

Yeah 3050 still performs really good to what you'd consider low end before it launched tho

[fervent glacier]

bro

it does not

[echo ridge]

It's ass compared the amds

[fervent glacier]

out of all the rtx gtx, gt cards is 30 series high end?

[echo ridge]

Current

[night heron]

3070: 5888 cuda cores
3070ti: 6144 cuda cores
3080: 8704/8960 cuda cores

[uncut kayak]

I swear 45% of this server is just blindly dick riding amd another 45 blindly dick riding nvidia

[finite cloud]

You don’t get a high end 30 until you get to about 3080

[fervent glacier]

is 80-100 fps good in red dead 2 w a 3070 ultra settings?

[finite cloud]

Welcome to LTT

[fervent glacier]

1080p

[echo ridge]

Ok nvm

[night heron]

when i say a 3070 is midrange im not saying it's the general populus average gpu

im saying it's the midrange model in their rtx 3000 lineup

[echo ridge]

^

[uncut kayak]

honestly dont give a fuck about the mid end, high end shit like who gives a fuck if it performs to your expectations doesn't really matter

[finite cloud]

I agree

[echo ridge]

Amd better rasteration Nvidia better dlss and rt

[uncut kayak]

kinda useless to argue over what these terms mean

[fervent glacier]

^^^^ 1080p???

[night heron]

imo you shouldnt buy a 3070 or 3070ti

get a 3060ti or skip right up to a 3080 if you want to stay on nvidia

[fervent glacier]

yes you should

[echo ridge]

^

[fervent glacier]

3070 is the best value

[finite cloud]

I think they’re arguing about how to categorize them

[fervent glacier]

skip 3060ti get a 3070

[woeful minnow]

lul

[night heron]

the best value cards are the 3060ti and 6700xt

[uncut kayak]

Yeah thats what I meant

[night heron]

funny how the 6700xt was supposed to be horrible value in comparison to the 6800/6800xt, but due to how stock and pricing ended up it turned into the value card

[fervent glacier]

someone reply

[finite cloud]

Okay

[fervent glacier]

yar or nar

[night heron]

that's the correct amount of frames yes

80-100 at 1080p ultra

youd probably get way more fps playing on high though

[uncut kayak]

would be a shame if you could look up 3070 ultra rdr2 and click on images and get some graphs

[night heron]

yeah all im doing is copy pasting his questions into youtube

[echo ridge]

No it about 10 percent faster for 10 percent more

[finite cloud]

Unless you have a target frame rate 60 or more is fine

[night heron]

ill drop settings until im hitting around 100fps

[echo ridge]

Tbh for red dead over 60 is fine

[uncut kayak]

id get a 3060 ti over a 3070 cuz its like another 100 dollars for like a few fps in most games

[woeful minnow]

but then just get a 6700 xt

[echo ridge]

Depends if you do rt

Or 3d modeling

[woeful minnow]

yeah if you do that stuff then you already know you need nvidia

[uncut kayak]

6700xt is at a bit of a weird price tho

[woeful minnow]

$60 less than the 3060 ti

[uncut kayak]

tf?

i thought it was 60 dollars more

[woeful minnow]

nope

[manic torrent]

I have a 6600XT - if you have 1080p it's the perfect card.

[vapid smelt]

6700xt sits between the 3060ti and 3070

[woeful minnow]

$400 for the 6700 xt, $460 for the 3060 ti

[uncut kayak]

yeah its the other way round

[vapid smelt]

6700xt very pog

[echo ridge]

I see 395 or 6700xt and 450 for 3060ti

[uncut kayak]

460 for 6700xt and 400 for 3060 ti

[finite cloud]

Idk what the performance is like but either seem good

[woeful minnow]

the 3070 is $500 rn

[fossil frost]

what annoys me is, i bought a 6600xt a year ago on release day for £330... thats how much a 6700xt costs today...

[manic torrent]

The other things is the 6600XT/6700XT uses wayyyyyyy less power

[manic torrent]

lol, I bought a 3070 EKWB for $1100 USD in Mar 2021. No regrets.

[vapid smelt]

priced low to high on pcpartpicker the cheapest 3060ti is 460 for the LHR sku

[fossil frost]

im annoyed by it, i dont regret it 🙂

was worth the money given how much enjoyment ive had from it so far

[manic torrent]

eh, no point being annoyed

[pure surge]

a 6600 xt msrp is 380 i think you mean the regular 6600

[woeful minnow]

theres also one for $395 if you use the $20 rebate

[fossil frost]

i know what i mean, and i said what i mean... 6600xt.. a year ago... before the regular 6600 was released

[night heron]

if youre in the US there's someone selling a rx 6800 on ebay for $450

pretty good deal

[woeful minnow]

its been below msrp for ages

the 6600 xt is $299 usd rn

the 6600 is $244

[night heron]

ive seen a sapphire "rx 6700" (no xt) model on newegg for like $340 before

seems to be directly inbetween a 6600xt and 6700xt in performance

[woeful minnow]

the 6700 is basically the rx 6700m mobile gpu but on desktop

[fossil frost]

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/powercolor-radeon-rx-6700-fighter-10gb-gddr6-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-1al-pc.html currently cheaper than the cheapest 6600xt, and about the same price as the average 6600 non-xt price

Is there a way I can send a message to Linus so he can see it.

[vapid smelt]

twitter

[grand mason]

K

Thanks

[grand mason]

Is there a specific account i have to go to.

[vapid smelt]

his

[near birch]

U guys think Linus has an alt that he uses to masquerade as regulars like us here on the server?

like covertly so nobody knows

[grand mason]

Just so I know what would that be

[vapid smelt]

google is your friend

[dire flare]

yeah the 6900xt costs under 500$ rn

[near birch]

Like CoopaTroopa how do I know that you aren't Linus pretending to be a rando?

[dire flare]

and the 6600xt costs under 190$

[near birch]

#Conspiracy

[woeful minnow]

coopa is smart

[vapid smelt]

ez proof

[near birch]

Not smart enough if I caught on

[near birch]

Lol you just grabbed a screenshot from google. not hard

[woeful minnow]

photoshopped

[near birch]

[woeful minnow]

[near birch]

y cant I post screenshots?

[woeful minnow]

you dont give linus extra money

[near birch]

Coopa Linus can I have access to post screenshots plz

[woeful minnow]

lol

[near birch]

I wanna flex my hardware

5950x and 3080ti with 64gb of ram

[woeful minnow]

hmm maybe you're linus

[vapid smelt]

if you can afford a over priced 3080ti you can buy a fp sub

[near birch]

Nah I'm just a crypto miner so I had my distributor send an extra 3080ti along with my client's order and get a good price

also prices rn are down significantly anyways

[echo ridge]

Mining diamonds

[molten drift]

Ild rather be mining cheese from the caves

[near birch]

Also keep in mind I do a lot of video production, AI rendering, and video compression so I need beefy hardware

[rugged bridge]

@vapid smelt o/

[vapid smelt]

but 3080 12gb

[near birch]

3080ti not 3080

[carmine merlin]

do it on the moon. 10X more efficient

[near birch]

I wanted a 3090 but my guy didnt have 1 in stock (-_-)

[molten drift]

But there's literal cheese caves in the USA.

[vapid smelt]

3080 12gb is within 4% of the 3080ti

[valid siren]

Or just get a 6900XT which is like $750 rn

[vapid smelt]

what kind of cheese are we talking about

[near birch]

Ok but for crypto mining it has a 40MH increase over the 3080. Goes from 80 to 120

[molten drift]

Or a 6800xt red devil for 599 at microcenter

[near birch]

so when I'm not video compressing or other stuff its making me more $

and I got it for $1000

During the peak of the shortage

[vapid smelt]

crypto mining

[valid siren]

For crypto mining just get a Vega 64/56/VII/something else with HBM2

[rugged bridge]

is everyone ok if i send an unsolicited forza 5 pic?

[valid siren]

Ah yes because everyone has access to a Microcenter

Hope all that crypto you got helps with your power bill

[near birch]

AMD stuff doesnt retain its value quite as well as nvidia and is a bit less configurable

[molten drift]

If you got enough limbs to use discord you got enough limbs to get to a micro center.

[near birch]

My power bill is 0. I mostly manage other people's hardware

[vapid smelt]

crypto is a scam

[rugged bridge]

really?
so my rx 6600 aint as valuable

[valid siren]

Mate you do crypto mining, and you’re worried about longevity?

[vapid smelt]

699

[echo ridge]

Double nice

[pure surge]

680

[near birch]

It is like an apple phone vs an android phone. They are both solid devices but the apple phone retains its value longer

[valid siren]

Ah yes because 200 miles worth of gas will make up the $40 difference from buying online

[near birch]

yes

[rugged bridge]

rip

oh well it does the job for me so

[vapid smelt]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-pyramid-scheme-michael-gif-10205657 crypto

[molten drift]

I mean.... I get 45 to the gallon and gas is $4.40 so... Yes still savings.

[near birch]

but the time investment

[echo ridge]

Time = money

[vapid smelt]

i get 21 to the gallon

[echo ridge]

I get idk because I'm canadian

[vapid smelt]

that would explain your old name

[near birch]

Jerry is Tom really bald tho?

[valid siren]

Meh I buy used parts anyway

[finite cloud]

I only got an e-bike

[near birch]

like how would u know he's bald

[echo ridge]

I cut his hair off

[near birch]

what if he's just wearing a bald cap to trick you

[vapid smelt]

e bikes with cali drivers

[near birch]

decoy hair

[molten drift]

So 4 hours driving or buy... Wait for someone to pack it,bring it to a shipper, the shipper then bring it to me.... Yeah I think driving takes less time to go to microcenter and back

[finite cloud]

Speaking of…..

I almost got hit today cuz some dude pulled in front me to park

[woeful minnow]

america moment

[near birch]

8 hours of driving. 4 hours each way.

[molten drift]

Is still faster than even prime when they were 2 day shipping.

[vapid smelt]

i got sameday shipping and it arrived in less then 6 hours for a dashcam

[finite cloud]

I don’t have micro center here and everyone tells me to go there :(

[molten drift]

So go on a trip to one.

Live life. , Viva la vida loca Las Vegas.

[finite cloud]

Oh actually there is one about half an hour away

[woeful minnow]

damn i guess i should do that

[vapid smelt]

lucky

[molten drift]

So I guess we know where your going lol

[finite cloud]

Must have opened recently

[woeful minnow]

lemme buy $2k worth of plane tickets brb

[near birch]

prime is 4 clicks, or 1 minute. Going there is 8 hours of active work

[finite cloud]

Free garbage time

[woeful minnow]

$3k mb

[molten drift]

You still have the down time of not having it. And driving is not that difficult... Your talking to a handicapped woman.

[finite cloud]

That free usb stick they were offering awhile ago seemed pretty handy but I think it’s expired

[woeful minnow]

why tf is it going via fiji

is that common for pacific flights?

[near birch]

If you want to waste your time like that be my guest. Imma continue going through distributors and getting bulk gpus at below market value

[molten drift]

Now it's free sata ssd's

[rugged bridge]

https://www.floatplane.com/channel/GarbageTime/home

[finite cloud]

I wish that was free too

[molten drift]

Because we all have access to that , much less of us do than the ability to access a micro center.

[echo ridge]

I wish the closest one wasn't like 1.7 k km

[near birch]

LOL none of my sources were from methods you can't do right now

[finite cloud]

You know what…I could use that too

[near birch]

I'm not gonna say how I got my sourcing tho cus that would make it harder for me

basically tho just think outside the box

[full fossil]

Is someone heee realy good with cables and electric stuff I have a realy custom scenario and would like to talk with someone about a possible answer

[finite cloud]

Well, 13 minute car ride and 33 minute bike ride

[rugged bridge]

woops

[near birch]

depends. PC build or arduino/robotics?

[molten drift]

Sure... Just like you hacked moey.... Enjoy the crypto crash

[woeful minnow]

12k

[full fossil]

PC and USB and shuf but it's a bit more complicated then that

[near birch]

I'm loving the crash so far! GPUs are being liquidated so I am able to buy in much cheaper

[full fossil]

Can I dm u

[near birch]
