strange
it's a bit more complex than that, plus computers can do more than one thing at a time 🙂
not in light mode so 
BeamNG.Drive is so CPU bound it will genuinely kiss you for having more cores, it's great
I was leaning towards the i7 since its base clocks are in general higher than the i9 so my understanding is that it would be better for applications that primarily depend on core frequency
anybody know a good way to download youtube videos without premium or sketchy websites?
streamdeck plus signalrgb plus discord, plus a bunch of browser windows/tabs
Sure, but most engines have a thread limit
Yeah but trying to justify the need for the extra cores, or if the i7 would be the better choice for my workload.
Sweetie, do me a favor, go into your settings and press around 5 to 10 times on the 'dark mode' button
there's several apps
there's many things many people (including myself) played that existed before i was born.
I know of the AMOLED dark mode, I used it for a while but I don't care for it
Like I do a lot of CAD modeling, and i know those CAD softwares primarily care about core frequency vs extra cores.
it probably is
SInce they dont really use the extra cores.
Blasphemy
indeed.
@hearty spear nothing in the sleep menu
I also noticed that the i9 boosts to 5.8 ghz while the i7 boosts to 5.5-5.6ghz
also nobody says 'i7' - that's just naming garbage that isn't meaningful
there's a amoled mode for PC, lemme find it
powercfg /a said that S3 sleep state is not supported by the system firm ware
there is?
u know any names?
Lots of people do! And it's useless!
nobody in the tech world
for CAD workloads, mild gaming.
yes, use the cpu names, 12600 vs 12900
If you ask yourself if you need the i9, you don't need the i9
uhhh 13 even
13700 vs 13900 in my case
If you need the i9, you know that you need the i9
its more a question of whether it'll actually benefit from the extra cores.
Or you're an idiot that just wants the i9
also basically nobody needs the i9
hmm. seems to not work on Web client. oh well
does the i9 consistently clock higher than the i7?
no
yeah as far as I know build overrides only work on the desktop app
Also it's a furnace
does linus acctually have discord
yes
ill have a custom loop so heat isnt really a concern thankfully.
hes just not here
why
its a bit mean
harassment iirc.
i havent made a build since skylake so whichever CPU I go with i want to make sure im actually using what im paying for
just a flood of messages and pings
i7 i9 who gives a shit. R7 and R9 are cooler products.
does anyone here have an i9 and actually use it for the workload its rated for?
I have a cpu faster than an i9 and do
and is the i9 a better CPU over the i7 in all aspects? (13700k vs 13900k)
What type of work if you dont mind me asking?
raw video editing
makes sense.
this is ltt server everyone does
me over here with an i5-6500
me with the i5 2450M
ooooooof
Is the 4090 4x8pin to 12pin adapter bad?
"4090" and "Cable" don't go together.
so overarchingly, the i9 is a better chip than the i7 in all respects?
A 13700 is way better than a 9900
or i9-7900x and i7-13700K
13900k vs 13700k
I9 > i7
i know the higher core counts usually come at the cost of some frequency
When you have the perfect pc build but you have no electricity
base clock for the i7 vs i9: 3.40 GHz 3.00 GHz
from the base clock perspective will the i9 perform slower with an application that is driven by frequency rather than core count?
"in all respects/aspects"
the base clocks are essentially meaningless since the cores will boost for as long as necessary
gottcha so assuming thermal throttling isnt in effect itll be boosting?
yep
with the i9, like you said, more cores means less thermal headroom if they're all in use, but for let's say 4 P cores, they'll both boost similarly
get some beefy cooling to go with it so you can use it at max boost, if that's your goal
ehhhhh it will also boost for a while then throttle down
depending on workload, yadda yadda
yeah ill be doing a decked out custom loop so cooling shouldnt be a concern.
custom loop is the only way to go!
but yeah that scenario is accurate to what im asking about
4P cores will they boost and clock similarly.
yes. excellent BFYB
since i imagine most of the work i do will be in that range
i was just concerned about the base clock being low on the i9 and potentially not being as strong as the i7
since most of the time i wont be using the i9s full potential, just under specific circumstances.
that's more or less irrelevant
has the water cooling game changed much in terms of pumps?
seems like the D5s are still the defacto.
yeah same/same.
I went with a d5, 2x360 rads, 9 120 fans, and a bunch of other crap and RGB
my current skylake has a thick 360, i have a spare thick 480 from a build from years ago.
thinking about going for a 480 + 360 looped together
go complete overkill on everything.
with todays 600watt builds it might not be overkill
My dual 360 is barely enough for my TR and 3090
yeah seems like the power game has changed.
good excuse for me to go all out
old behemoth from 2011
oh mods rigs, miss that site
see im stuck, because i have a crazy budget to work with this time around
i really want to make a decked out ITX build or microATX
but with the case offerings its gonna be tough to stuff thick rads without going for an external amount
better than my rig
damn there really arent too many microATX boards out there for z790
MATX is more often used for B chipsets
might go the other end of the extreme scale and go for a 1000D
The 6600 XT alone is like $350, so help me understand why someone would sell their whole pc for less than half the value of one component.
also this platform is BRAND new
pay homage to my original 750D
yeah i figure the offerings wont be that robust this early in
290 now
there is just something so appealing having a beast of a PC in a small form factor
Where do colleges start in November..
why would a college student not a need a pc?>
student moving across country to start during winter semester?
why go out of state for college that just cost more
idk
What’s the cheapest 2.5 ssd with dram from a good brand?
240 gbs or higher

The CORSAIR 7000D AIRFLOW is a full-tower ATX case for the most ambitious builds, with an airflow-optimized steel front panel for maximum air intake and three included 140mm AirGuide fans.

Price kind of depends if you want pcie 3 or pcie 4
Oh you said 2.5 lmao… sorry derp moment
Crucial MX500
480 up front and then a 360 up top.
that would be my plan
would be supported
i noticed other brands offering water cooling pumps, are most just rebrands or is there a pump that sets itself apart from the competition?
Not nvme
How much?
idk
That’s $40
haha, fuck yeah. got my laptop dock all plugged into my reciever, so now it can work with my laptop/work setup, my desktop, or the nest hub via bluetooth.
I have a home assistant automation that kicks in when the hub is being cast to that changes the input of the stereo, and changes it back when it is done
Does PNY CS900 have dram?

RTX 3080 hotspot temp max 100C. is this too high?
sauce?
@vapid smelt the fast starts soon 
absolutely yes
gpu only goes to 76 max, but hot spot is 100
high tier DDR4 RAM vs mid tier DDR5 ram? thoughts?
ddr5 better
its that much more considerable?
depends on what you're doing, but for most gaming, it's not that big a difference
But for future use: DDR4 is a dead end
do you know where the hot spot is?
siracha
i dont mind paying extra for the ddr5, just wanted to know if it was actually a considerable jump.
getting a 64 gb package so its $220 vs $550 for the ddr5
this is fixing to be a 3k-4k build
unless this build is literally making you money, you're probably spending a fair bit you don't need to
it inadvertently does
@hearty spear @quasi root I think that temp might be okay actually. The hotspot/Tjunction is the absolute hottest temp prob in the silicon, and both AMD and Nvidia spec it to reach ~110. This is a very different reading than your normal GPU temperature, which is an average over several probes.
i build once every 4-6 years
The "where" changes for the hotspot/Tjunc
this year actually marks year 7, so i always go a little overkill
but I do CAD for a living.
Yeah that's fine. Ignore the hotspot temp
thanks 🙂
but trying to make an all around comp for everything under the sun
get 2x16 now then upgrade with another kit down the line if needed
gaming, CAD, et
But you could build a more reasonable box that's still very powerful for ~2K, and build a NEW PC that'd stomp on your 4K$ build in 3 ish years, and still have only spent ~4K overall
too much work.
thanks it was fine until i started playing MW2
id rather go all in on an i9 vs mincing the finances
building PCs is fun, not work!
honestly i'd build my freind a pc for free
as long as theyre willing to pay for the parts
it is fun, but when i build i go all out with a custom loop and the whole nine yards.
im not fucking rich
Some people don't have the time/motivation. I don't blame them
so the build is a bit more involved and i dont plan on making one like that every few years.
some people also call house cleaning fun
Same reason you pay extra for takeout/delivery even if you find cooking yourself to be fun. That's time you coulda spent doing something else.
13th gen seems like a nice time to upgrade finally.
the i7 13700k and i9 13900k both have 8P normal cores
I also call them nuts
im on a 6700k at 4.7 Ghz atm
Housecleaning does wonders for a cluttered mind
it does
agreed, but that doesn't make it "fun" lol
If you're high and listening to some good music, I would be inclined to disagree
or like doing a jigsaw puzzle. i would pay not to do a puzzle
or maybe I go hybrid for this build and use some parts from the skylake system
tkitch I don't think I've contradicted you this much ever wtf is going on
Having a clean house is amazing. If only I didn't need to clean to get there
but i kinda like the idea of having another main PC and use the old one as a server or something.
Bob!
Everyone's got opinions 😉
Hello
And this is a case where it's actually opinions we can disagree on
I have no opinions. Only facts. I am never wrong.
yo yo, today is most auspicious. I unplugged my gaming PC and setup my laptop with the thunderbolt dock (under the desk) so I can not be tempted and get some work done
can you link me to a website saying this? just curious
inquiring minds want to know
still on the fence about the i9 vs the i7 tbhwy
I bought a stupidly cheap HP G2 dock, which I updated the firmware on, but it still wouldn't work with my screen.... but it did today, So I'm taking the win 😄
although I want to get a video card for my other egpu
anyone here use quick disconnects in their custom loop?
no, I just have a drain valve
the offerings for watercooling is crazy now.
i remember back in 2010 there was nothing
had to order from shady sites to get some good stuff.
my OG koolance block from 2010 is still kicking.
thats the other thing im excited to do, hard tubing.
See the 90 degree and the large thing there? That flips out, and the large thing is a tap.
so I screw in a tube that is going to a bucket/whatever, and can drain it cleanly
and push the vent to allow air to get ... or just open the fill hole at the top
man i love gigabit internet (i know it’s 500mbps but i’m over wifi)
it’s beautiful
Do you guys have any recommendations for earbuds
Linux 
has anyone ever heard of Replace Power RP-ATX-1000W-BLU 1000W ATX Power Supply Blue LED
who the fuck is replace power
honestly i love my apple airpods and they work great with other bluetooth devices
get the pros if you get them
I feel like I got COVID but then I test negative 
Nah I tried apple, they are not good at all

I made a pc for my dad
It has 4 gbs of ram, it says there 3.2 gbs a available, why?
iGPU using some RAM?
I had to go through like a bazillion photos to get those 🙂
There’s a gpu in it
what CPU?
Old quad core cpu
intel Core2Quad?
Similar to the first budget pc Linus made
Maybe?
basically.... there's no garauntees. Our son has weird immune/blood issues so we stay home and wear N99 level comfortable masks anywhere, and just live in a bubble, it's super fun
Sounds about right
check the BIOS, you can probably adjust down the amount of RAM the iGPU gets.
@full fossil
What about dedicated to the os?
drain?
there is no such thing, the OS just uses RAM that's there
.... that's everything that's left
Wdym?
drain, and fill point on the top. super low profile so the top goes on (above that pic)
thats a nice setup
the iGPU is the only thing that gets "dedicated memory"
Everything else shares the rest of the RAM, including the OS
people who dont put a drain port make their lives so much harder
drain and fill ports are a must
I just put in a long straw and drink it
overclocked water
Mm tasty
I mean... why do you think I learned and put a drain port in 😄
That’s just ek cryofluid
extra minerals and everything!
EK makes their cryofluid from the blood of virgin gamers
So they'll never run out of sacrifices?
Never.
The actual PC in full unicorn vomit mode
Not enough flow meters.
My USB hub bullshit worked for this board
You need at least 3 flow meters
another good thing to keep in mind, depending on your reservoir is leaving a port for air so that when you're filling you dont get air bubbles preventing you from filling
it has one, but it's digital
you can't see the air vent in that pic, but it's there 🙂
You need at least two more
thats the way to go, nice.
I love it. HAX
im used to building back when RGB wasnt on every single PC component
When the keyboard I want doesn't exist I'll make the damn keyboard myself
its crazy the light show you can produce with some of these parts now.
my RGB setup is a lot of custom stuff and work 🙂
is there a defacto fan that is above the competition now-a-days?
back in the day scythe gentletyphoon was the go to for water cooled setups.
Still the NFa12
seems like manufacturers have upp'd their game
damn really?!
Oh, I can upload files in public chat too, I knew boosting the server had some benefit
oh NF
you get what you payfor
The Phanteks T30
The NF-A12x25 is a highly optimised next-generation 120mm fan that integrates Noctua’s latest innovations in aerodynamic engineering in order to achieve an unprecedented level of quiet cooling performance. It takes state-of-the-art technologies such as the AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frame or Flow Acceleration Channels and combines them...
Except the T30 beats it in pretty much every way possible
Except the P12 PST PWM beats it
it has a very similar design to my gentle typhoons
i purchased the fans back then during the tsunami that hit japan
$25-$30 a fan at its peak.
the T30 is a beast of a fan, if you can deal with the extra thickness
but damn noctuas going for $30 still, crazy
Yup, and they won't stop doing that
If you want to pay less, P12 PST PWMs
They cost a third and perform literally the same
They sell at 30? So they charge 30
is that arctic brand?
This is the exception to the rule but I still feel justified
is there an RGB variant for these fans?
Currently the best fan you can get on the market right now, although also expensive
i want all the colors
That.. doesn't say anything
That's a noise chart
Yes, the P12 PST PWM A-RGB fans
when my qualifications are this arbitrary it will benefit me and me alone
C-Cool
Yes
I applaud phanteks for taking the crown but I still prefer the silence (and aesthetic because I'm that guy)
Phanteks fans look way better than noctua
agreed, counterpoint. My usecase
It is literally a difference you won't notice
Especially with these two fans
Noise charts don't say anything about noise pitch, either
the pitch that the noctua fans I own basically hide it under ambience, the loudest parts of my setup is my keyboard and UPS
This is what a true enthusiasts RGB looks like
well and the steam controller is LOUD
It does have the other half of the case on the top now, which makes it safe and secure, but you can't see the arduinos and wiring
I still have very young ears, I can hear 21Khz still
me2, I hate it
whereas I can't hear shit. I'm deaf to ranges that humans can sing in.
Me too, that's why I hate when people bring their chargers for their drills and stuff, because I can clearly hear them doing their shit
although it does come with the perk of being able to identify winy gpu's
it's part of the reason I have an ATX PSU under my desk for additional power - you don't roll the dice on 20 noisy wall warts
have you checked to see if GaN is noisy?
The doctor expects me to have that kind of hearing until 30 too- although I don't personally believe in it, if that were the case, I'd have enough reason to cry in a corner for another eight years 
I'm 41
I have a gan on my desk and have never heard it, and the noise floor in here is super low
Oh, you're in the black void of not being old but definitely not being young, either
should I call the police I don't think aussies are supposed to have those kekw
damn
Sounds fun, my old guild in FF14 unironically calls me a granny for some reason
you tell that to my creaky-ass body 🙂
if you played the OG FFs when they came out, you are prob older than the average gamer
@hearty spear You have no right to put an KEKW on there, you old ass man 
there are a lot of over 18 year old folks in this server
what is this, a nursing home 
most people are over 18
I'ma join your guild and be like "I was playing Final Fantasy before most of you were born. Fuck, I was SELLING FF7 before most of you were fucking born!"
you tagged tk and I'm the one that typed kekw...
I mean we're younger than the average Jays2Centz viewer
i am also over 18
I didn't say you weren't
Half of my life ago? I was still over 18 😛
winter is coming, I'm gonna be 24... kill me
I didn't.. mean you though?
I also reacted with it 😛
You typed kekw, tkitch put kekw as a reaction on my message

you guys realize 2020 is basically 3 years ago at this point
Akira also like giving me shit for being the ancient geezer that I am. >.<
can I have this formatted in c#?
I actually can't tell what it's supposed to mean
yes i remember buying a 5600X for 300USd now the freaking 5800X3D is that price :'(
I still get asked for my ID at pretty much every store, because women with no creases at 4'10 height are regarded age 14 apparently
Can you use a ryzen 5 3600 to play Minecraft without a gpu
I thought Minecraft was cpu dependent
Around Tokyo the adults weren't really phased by me walking around, but frequently there were little kids who would stare mouths agape like.... "People get THAT big?!"
I am very tempted to react with the anime that's making me think of
a 3600 has no graphics card
you can't put anything on a screen without one
you need a gpu to display any sort of thing
You don't stand out in Tokyo as much, since it's a tourist hub, lol
4'10", mom clothing.... looks like a child...
My dad said it had basic graphics my motherboard has hdmi and vga slots
Go into a random ass village in Japan and you'll get stared at period
4'10, ouch!
If you had a Ryzen G? Yes. Not not a 3600.
your dad lived in the past where motherboards had integrated graphics on it
well I'm Irish so I already would be stared at.
just cuz it has display ports doesnt mean it can display
No he said the cpu had basic graphics that would mean i could still boot
I'm 41, and I have one 5yo son, who is chinese. My wife is also white af
Ireland doesn't exi-
Ryzen does not have that.
if it is as you describe, it does NOT
Fuck
your dad was misinformed
Better pray for no gpu failure

sorry to say your dad does not know what he's talking about
return/sell the 3600
But i have a vega 3 processor
I'm American... I am mostly irish though.
what vega 3 processor?
hm
So if my gpu fails i can use the vega 3 processor so i can boot
You can get a dirt-cheap add-on GPU used, like a gtx 750 or something.
what is the EXACT model of your CPU
Amd athlon 200ge
6 core? Idk what u mean by that
well ur just gonna have to use that
that chip HAS built in graphics.
A Ryzen 3600 does not.
the 200GE has a gpu inside it as well as the cpu. the 3600 only has a cpu
Ill use my vega 3 processor if worse comes to worst
yeah exactly.
if it did have built in graphics I wouldn't have spend 150 on my 6600
Anyway, gonna go shower and sing how tk is proud of him being like 65 or something
notice the G in 200GE. that stands for GRAPHICS
it's not a vega 3 processor, it's a 200GE
and the E for, EWWWWWWWWWWWW
what did E actually stand for?
E for EcoMode by default you lazy ass ppl
The athlon 200ge js a piece of shit btw
I know 🙂
I mean, I didn't 5 minutes ago
Speaking from experience but thanks to miners i had to use vega 3 and a garbage processor for 3 years
I mean.. It's an Athlon
sell the 3600 while you can still get money for it or buy a GPU like at least a GT1030 or RX 6400 to compliment the 3600
but I have this amazing thing in front of me that can access more or less the complete amount of human knowledge
not bad, just low budget
A athlon 200ge can go for 80$
But i wanna keep it for years
any defacto water pumps or are they all sorta similar offerings?
and in discord you can literally double click it, right click, search in google, boom, question answered.
For nostalgic purposes
variations on a theme.
I'd probably rather buy an old X4 880k with that money 
I'd rather buy more RGB
not sure what you mean
I mean there is little core difference, but they come in many packages
RGB coldplates when?
If you think people are dumb for buying a athlon 200ge for 80$ just know that some people buy gt 730's for 150$
RGB heatpipes, hello?
ahh kk, there isnt some pump on steroids out there?
With the money for a gt 730 u can get a used 1060
not really. I run my pump at a looooow duty cycle most of the time due to noise
i still have my swiftech MCP655
with some EK mod for flow
Going from vega 3 to a gtx 1060 was life changing i never had a gpu before that
Before that it was always intergraded gpus
I bought a second hand DDC pump, piece of crap burned out.
I went from no graphics to a gt1030...
why arent you using the gtx 1060?
i went from really shitty laptop igpus to a 3070 and a 12600k
I am
yeah its tough to assess the pumps health especially second hand
Replaced it with the upgraded circuit from ... wherever the people are that make those things. been going since in my server
i would not call it life changing but i can now play games
never know if they were run dry
why do you care if the 3600 doesnt have graphics then?
I love it i was dancing when mu dad surprised me with it
Gpu failure what if my gpu fails
what if ur cpu fails
that ... isn't that common
Then i got to put the athlon back in
now you know why the 150$ gt1030 exists
then you put the athlon back
get a 5600g then? or failing that a 3200g?
I already got the cpu
A 1660 goes for 150 or less used now, and is 3x a 1030
Im hopefully getting a 3050 for my birthday next year
I wouldnt get it
you can return the 1030 when you're done with it
next year a 3050 will be junk
it's also not a given that wherever you live has easily accessible used hardware
300, holy, for 100 sold. but thats a tough number to swallo
Most places do tho
Well 3080s are already down to 500 dollars i might be able yo get one of those
I got a bunch of crap but in the end a good eyeball is generally way easier/better.
lol, 3050 vs 3080 is a WORLD of difference
any recommendations on a decent bending kit?
the 3050 is equivalent to a 1070 or 1070ti which is like at most 20% faster than a 1060 6GB. I would ask for money instead and keep ur cash until the 1060 dies or you have enough funds to get something really good like a 3070
you're going from medium detail 1080p, to 4k ultra
I hate miner and the fact that there power washing there gpus is funny asf dont buy there used gpus they dont deserve it
I have 1060 3gb bro
heatpipes? or just water cooling
I just got a cheap one. was fine.
got heatpipes covered, got other tools for that.
Then what's the issue with the 3600?
just the hard plastic tubes
he's worried his gpu breaks
My dad could have gotten a gtx 1080 because they were being sold for 200 dollars but honestly i dont mind as long as i got a gpu im grateful i love my dad so much
i imagine patience and a steady hand goes a long way with ensuring the quality of the bend
damn
1080 for 200?!
just skip the 3050 tbh. a 6600 is practically the same price and performs closer to the 3060 than the 3050
yeah that is market price atm
And i have an amd cpu so ill get the most out of a 6600
all the GPUs are falling, and falling fast. still high vs what they WOULD have been, but it's normalising
it really doesn't make much difference
the 3050 was created to make nvidia mad stacks off desperate ppl during the silicon shortage
What kinda mf would get an intel arc and then use it with an amd cpu or get an amd gpu and put it with an intel cpu
this isn't entirely correct... but the bit that is correct is nvidia making mad stacks 😄
lots of people, all the time. As I said, it doesn't matter.
Aka the reason i had to use vega 3
great time to pick up a GPU soon
i have a 1080 ti, i guess a 3080 or 3090 is in order.
or 3080 ti?
Do you feel that you need it?
6950xt
6500xt is pure garbage
Oh
That is not cheap lmao
probably not tbh
dont have too many games i like to play besides destiny 2
although would be nice to have destiny 2 run 144 FPS
worse performance than a 3050 dont let the name fool you.
https://www.amazon.com/LG-34GK950F-B-34-21-Ultragear/dp/B0798Q8KG4 got this bad boy
oo that is a nice chart, thanks
I forgot
yeah no embed which sucks
False alarm guys rtx 3080 still over priced at 1k dollars
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/P7H7YJ/gigabyte-radeon-rx-6500-xt-4-gb-gaming-oc-video-card-gv-r65xtgaming-oc-4gd THAT is a cheap 6500 XT
in the US i dont think so
But still, not worth it
those guys are 750ish
wait wtf they made a 3 fan 6500XT?
still $170 too much
gigabyte is actually high
You can pick one up for $700, so no
you can get used 3080s for really cheap
Thats because amazon makes you pay double the money in canada
wasnt sure you were canadian
Even tho the usd version would not even exchange for yhe amount of money
Not really, for a card that's roughly a 1650 G6, that's probably around the cheapest you can get it to, truthfully. That's already well under MSRP
That is not how money conversion works
is there a brand of fittings that is generally the go to for quality? I know EK is up there, koolance.
Something could be 300 dollars in the us and out of nowhere like 800 dollars in vanada
but not sure about the new offerings
not when you consider you can get a used GPU with more VRAM, more performance, and actual encoding engines for the same or less
Y-Yeah, because the USD is worth 1.3 times what the Canadian dollar is
I actually ended up with a lot of bykski and barrow stuff - particularly because it was more available/in stock. I also have EK stuff, and others
rtx 3050 is cringe
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/mr/canadacomputers/Fr8bt6 and if ur willing to spend 30USD more than a 3050's lowest price you get this beast which beats the 3060 consistently
alphacool is up there too from what I remember?
Yeah, but for what he just listed and called 'cheap' he could've gotten a 3050 for like $20 more
Anyone know why Zotac's Firestorm is getting flagged by windows defender?
yeah I have al alphacool rad. tbh some of my stuff is very specific brands, because they have the exact kind of fitting I needed to fit in X spot.
totally feel you on that, some brands just have what ya need
i have bitspower fittings all around for mine
false positive?
Is it possible to see if a 1650 super works with a 235 watt psu just to see if it works, not to game
Try the Squintoskweef Injection
yes should be fine
Sarcasm?
no, if you're not doing 3d stuff it will draw SFA
It must be, it's just weird that a company like zotac isn't recognized as a publisher by windows
hahahha, this happens all the time.
I think youd be fine, but depends on the rest of the system too
windows in general isnt all that thorough imo
It will fry your router don't even try
its overly trigger happy
Router?
I think OstBefo knows more about it than me
fried router, im curious too
I’m so confused?
Are you a newgen?
Ost knows more
You mean newegg?
Look is it possible or not?
Probably not
Ask Ost he knows more
Not worth a shot
235 watts to see if a 1650 super works
The probability that it works is not even worth it
Fuck, ok then I’ll put it in my main pc
Yeah that's smarter
Wdym?
Bro What
Didn’t Linus put a gtx 650 in a 235 watt pc?
Well yeah that's Linus
No that was CarterPCS
First budget pc
He said in that very video
That it isn't the smartest thing to do; also, it was for a video so
Don't trust everything you see online
but you said that on the internet should we trust that?
but you said that on the internet should we trust that?
😳
hi
please stay on topic
eat my ups
ong
Steam game ive been waiting a long rime for it to launch has finally released a demo, and it crashes within less than a minute of my opening it
lmao
Mate what
damn
my honest reaction to that information: 
imagine

people still play fortnite?
only little children
Apple Arcade is a the best place for games when you're using portable consoles
but uh.... goku.
Mario shilling for a Apple? Hes a nintendo charicter!
You're going to freak out once you see what im playing
Silence child
What's this guy on aboyut
Hannah Montanah's Kitchen Cabinet
Sam & Cat's Catastrophic Babysitting Failure
Good thing I'm not a guy then 
hey now he's talking. the Pinnacle of Desktop use.
What's this They/Them on about*
Sorry They
N-No I'm simply a woman
I know, hard to believe, but they exist too
How is that hard to believe
one one they seen is they Mums.
You'd be genuinely surprised

women? on my internet?
It's not the internet, it's the interman after all, unbelievable!
Damien told me that it's impossible to extract that
Not even planning on it
bites tongue and doesn't make OF comment
Na i live in Oregon so there is no point
ikr? they Deserve nothing but a good time here right?
maybe they don't WANT a good time. Perhaps all people want is basic respect.
I was about to say, the way it was worded sounded extremely deliberate
state of the drugs
there's no way to know with BSS, we keep him around for his hilariously bad takes.
who doesn't like having some fun times with other people?
You can't really drop it unless it's in your pocket and when it's that hard to get then just don't even try
say whaaa?
Sometimes u just gotta take Risks
WTF is this guy on about?
what? women cant have fun on the internet? they cant go browse all the games and look at funny cats and dogs like guys can? NONSENSE I SAY, NONSENSE! everyone can go look at things and play what they like.
this they/them thing of this generation is truly some mind numbing stuff
Facts LoL
It's more hilarious to me how like 90% of people who say that are men
"i identify as a bottle nose dolphin"
linus got under fire for a similar joke being in the Credits of a video before. the classic one.
transphobes have one joke
how fragile do you have to be to take offense to that kind of stuff.
to take offense to people not having basic respect for what you would prefer to be called?
You should be very careful with that, actually
Trans people often went through literal emotional hell in order to be even remotely recognized as so and I don't find it remotely fun if people crack jokes about it
i mean in the sense of taking offense if someone misidentifies whatever it is.
it?
yeah whatever it is you like to be called
yeah you're making up stuff and getting annoyed by it
?
"taking offense" isn't the point\

saying "I identify as an apache helicopter" is disrespecting the entire CONCEPT of self identification.
bottle nose dolphin*
yeah, same shit, I don't care.


Sadly, people don't give a shit, since internet means no repercussions
IRL it would often be a fist to the face
irl id go with the most logic of the choices, he/her
What happened to the 4080
i do enjoy how this is like the second new person comee in here today and start this shit
Anyway, as Momo has stated before, such kinds of topics really don't belong here, so moving on
yeah lets shift gears
4080 12 was taken away. probably the 4070 now
The 4080 16 GB isn't released yet
4080 12gb going to become the rtx 4090ti
4080 12GB got cancelled
we wish.
i wonder why they cancelled em
is something going to replace it or is the 4080 going to be a void
its a Cut down card from the 4080.
Because it was at best a 4070-class card with the name 4080 on it, which is what people would call a 'cash grab'
No, there's still a 4080
*4060Ti
the 4080 16gb is still a cash grab
'at best a 4070-class [...]'
every card from Nvidia this gen is really gonna be a Cashgrab
remember when the best card was $699
The Apple virus is spreading, I suppose
Once they found out people pay over a $1,000 for stuff they don't need, they milk it as much as possible
when AMD has a spot to slot their best cards at 1K. its hard to deny that Nvidia has likely opened themselves to some competition here.
tbh not really
GPU prices are bonkers
The problem is that nvidia designed lovelace without regard for cost or power consumption
you wouldn't save 600 dollars on a high end GPU?
amd barely applies to the market that buys 1000 + GPUs
i literally cannot. i have to use cuda
not really, You can get a 6650XT very affordably, and play everything happily
god damn
poor blokes sold his soul to Corporate schoolyard bullies.
happy i havent had much need to upgrade from the 1080 ti
I paid $2,000 each for my 3090s back then btw
JFC you have no idea how the world really worjks, do you
not even sold my soul, its literally just every prograrm that does actual work using a gpu is cuda
and people doing actual work are most of the people buying 4090s
JFC you never understand a joke.
same reason I have a T400 in my server
except it's not funny?
This is WITHOUT crippling shortages that lead to high prices btw
shudders
A joke would have to be funny though
yeah well, Jokes are Subjective. i shouldn't need to apologise for your lack of humor.
how exactly is it a joke - what is the juxtaposition or comparison or situation that makes it unexpected and amusing?
There are definitely jokes that you could've found funny and are insensitive enough that you should apologize for it
Satire isn't a green card to say anything you want
Two fish in a tank, one turns to the other and says "mate, do you know how to drive this fuckin thing?!"
Funny because fish live in water, and in tanks, but not in military tanks. and don't talk.
do i need to apologize because a man has to use CUDA?
or is it that we need better competition
I obviously wasn't referring to your particular example, but to your 'lack of humor thing'
yes its a terrible ailment and fatal (to my wallet)
lol it was just a prank bro
Sorry for your fallen Wallet dude
Sike, there are fish that can survive on land
one day, a fish climbed out of the water and now I have to pay rent.
Better teach em how to drive tanks now
im just glad amd spooked nvidia into the 3060 12gb, made my life much easieer
didnt have to go to the 3080ti for 12 gb
stupid nvidia and vram seegmeenting
yeah, a card that's hilariously useless for gaming, but perfect for larger datasets
the 3070 8gb was so stupid.
we just need Nvidia to drop their crown and have Radeon be on top for a while. then hopefully Radeon's support and drivers can be better.
radeon needs to bee on top for like half a decade
one generation just isnt enough to seriously matter
The H510 Flow is a good case 
its not happening in our lifetimes but it is vital enough that they do.
radeon is out power bottom
when do you think the nukes are gonna drop 
i am really banking on MI250x and cdna 3 being such compute monsters that we see more amd adoption on the science end
when the US government gets hands on the 5090 and makes fun of their rival for having Tsar Bomba instead
and that'll trickle on into applications as time goes on
a 5090 will use a combustion engine to power it that'll just use nukes in the chamber
thee best hope is that amd comes up with a cuda translation layer. that would be an insanee game changer
HIP can implement cuda and amd's hipcc or whatever, but does not actually translate existing cuda implementations
what AMD likely has the Advantage in this gen is Laptops. ik i'd buy regardless. i need an upgrade anyways
it basically acts as a place that a dev can easily write for both cuda and hipcc without any major conflicts
amd is so far ahead in laptops its kinda insane
AMD's strong suit is efficiency yes. so its very good in server and laptops
prob good in cars as well
navi 23 is in teslas yes
RDNA 3 is gonna be amazing, and i'm not talking about dGPUs
yeah intel eating shit real hard right now
AMD has released like 3 product lines since saphirre rapids was supposed to be released
yep, and spr will still be seriously behind milan when it launches, not to eveen mention genoa
they released Milan, Milan-X, and ye Genoa is coming now
siena is the smaller socket i believe
theere will bee SP5 for the full 96 core genoa and 128 core bergamo, and then sp6 (siena) which will support lower core counts on a cheaper platform
zeen4c is bergamo
oh. ok
Still early stages for the hub wiring but I spent most of my time getting the massive jacket off the splitter itself and making the c port flush
is that a plastic keyboard?
The bottom is, the top is metal
smh
Bruh I bought the board from NPS for 5 USD
get some class go all brass
It had a volume wheel and blues for 5 USD what else could I want other than what I'm modding in for 25 usd
use lead
uranium keyboard keeps me warm
The PLUMBing theme isn't until later but that will be a whole ass computer
Radium keyboard makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside
do this instead of RGB
Didn't they turn into cache valley?
what a cursed emote
any1 ever watch that documentary about the women who painted radium onto clock hands and had their jaws basically fall off?
cool beans
i think i saw something similar
horrifying what shit can do to you
I'm still considering getting the face sandblasted
a guy DRANK radium "energery drink" radium water
lost his jaw and died
the Father of Monster
I'm trying to find where I put the volume wheel and I still need to add the holes for the three type A ports
Then for the Noctua caps
Probably going to print a replacement for that hexagonal button too
wood board with Noctua caps
I'm allergic to most woods that would be used for this purpose
noctua color scheme is ass
Although it may be the bark I'm allergic to
so you cant use Chopping boards?
PTFE chopping boards
I literally have a noctua themed sleeper
wdym? Noctua looks nice
get some "noctua" headphones
Chromax does, tan and brown has to be worked towards
some noctua executive out there thought that shit brown and coffee tan would make a good color scheme for their fans
Oh my good God how much
they intentionally made the color scheme dogshit so they could sell chromax versions for more expensive
these look like they come with your Rolls Royce.
the classic create a problem and sell a solution

Literally not what happened
Look at their historical data, the color used to be worse, they just went for the plastics that made the best frame and fan, which coincidentally made it look like that.
The brown rubber is just to match though
i thought it was tan sine it was perceived as premium
unrelated tangent, but you know the Original 3DS?
Tan ABS has some very weird mechanical properties
this thing blows. the other designs are fine. this ones flawed as fuck.
I heard that they picked the ugliest colors on god's green earth to stand out and they sure fucking did
you're showing your (young) age
yellow is the ugliest color
yellow has cyberpunk vibes
they have that 70s vibe to it
I had UV reactive clear fans and UV CCFL in my build back in the day, it was bitchin
I also remember buying a Lian Li PC-60b, because it was the first case that was aluminium and not steel
what pet dino did you have bob?
labradino
isn't that case used in LGR's Megaluminum monster?
yes! it was a fucking epic case for the time - even now, with the removable tray and stuff it's pretty good. Most cases at the time were utter utter shit
anyone with an alienware knows what its like living with such cases
yeah that's pretty much correct
gut one and make a Windows 98 PC. then you just have a Tacky looking retro system.
i wanna see someone do that
weird shitty fascias, shitall airflow, bizarre design decisions, cheap garbage internally, fans that don't work for various reasons, shitty fans.

Ima hit you with the 
try me
I just realized that 4090 is a downgrade in terms of VRAM
all caps 
SOMEBODY, bring me on the line with the MR PRESIDENT
why the fuck you wanna NVLINK it
to get 48GB of VRAM
workstations have their own solution

consumers need sli 4090's DUH
plus games totally run fine with dual GPUSls
professional gpus are in another price range
4090 is a Professional GPU.
he's referring to the quadros and stuff
4090 is cheap vs professional gpus
which do have nvlink but i'm just saying they're very expensive
or you can do inhumane methods of what miners do + software and boom you got 4090s
quadros too work
Medium rare
I feel like my brain is multung every decond
Ayo
Fermi 2.0
