It’s a question about piracy not about how to pirate or DRM circumvention

Have you read that section?

How does asking if a pirated game can run off a flash drive correspond to infringing on anyone’s intellectual rights?

Did I ask how to pirate XYZ? Did I drop a 1337x link?

I haven’t been to high school in years but I’m pretty sure the main subject of the question wasn’t doom piracy, but running games on flash drives (Legal Minecraft was my main example)

You could have fooled me

but - why WOULDN'T you be able to run games off a flash drive. You can run games off a flash drive in the same way you can run games off a hard drive you take with you.

but on steam doesn’t it require a steam install?

yes.

That’s why I referenced a pirated game, pirated games are a closed system and they have a fake steam signal or something

Hey everyone, I'm kind of stuck between two choices

#

I've got a computer with an i5-4570, Gigabyte GeForce 1650 OC Edition, 1TB Toshiba HDD and 16GB DDR3 Ram (1x8 & 2x4)

I'm thinking of either buying another 1x8GB ram stick OR an SSD (Kingston A400 240GB)
Which would improve performance the most when it comes to gaming?

graceful burrow
#

since you've already got 16gb, installing games on an ssd would probably be more beneficial to stuff like loading
but neither will get you more fps

#

installing more ram doesnt help anything unless you're using more than 16gb of ram currently

#

and basically no game uses more than 16gb

gleaming mural
#

I'm not aiming to get more FPS, just hopefully a better gaming experience since the computer gets above 100 fps in most of my games, but it does use a lot of CPU

#

Would getting more RAM/an SSD relieve the CPU of workload

graceful burrow
#

neither

gleaming mural
#

I read that getting more ram could potentially increase processor performance

graceful burrow
#

it will not

#

sometimes better ram speed can, but not on a cpu that old
plus limited by ddr3 in the first place

safe siren
#

Id get the ssd in case u want to download any more games etc

graceful burrow
#

yeah if those are the only two options, more storage is always a plus

gleaming mural
#

Incase I do get the SSD, should I move Windows over to the SSD or keep it on the HDD?

graceful burrow
#

windows will 100% feel snappier on an ssd, even if it's dramless like that one is

#

i'd recommend it

gleaming mural
#

Could it potentially increase performance since Windows and the game files would be on separate drives?

graceful burrow
#

no

gleaming mural
#

But which upgrade would be more beneficial; SSD or Ram?

graceful burrow
#

it's tit for tat
more ram wont help unless you're already using more than 16gb

vestal tulip
#

in my opinion

#

ssd sounds better

gleaming mural
#

Also how do I know if the SSD is compatible with my computer?

graceful burrow
#

the ssd uses sata power and sata data
if you got those you're good

#

look for a sata power connection on your power supply, and you might need to buy a sata data cable, you'll have to check your motherboard for an available sata connection

vestal tulip
#

most ssd's and hdd's are all compatible with most pcs

gleaming mural
#

My computer is a Business style desktop (HP ProDesk 600 SFF G1), but what color would a sata cable be?

#

The SSD is Sata 3.0

graceful burrow
#

any, there's no standardization on the color of the cable

Anyone know of a good source of smoke studies on case airflow? Or does no one just bother to do it?

hollow pulsar
#

I’ve never bothered to do smoke testing. As long as I know approximately where my air is going and no obvious blockages or strangling, it’s good enough.

karmic wren
#

Would be so nice to have actual videos of someone performing smoke studies instead of just having some shit tier animations from manufacturers with proof of "trust us bro"

#

Ran in to some pc build timelapse ASMR shit and it had a section for smoke tests and i didnt even realize how freaking helpful that is...

hollow pulsar
#

How did it help you?

hollow zealot
#

Generally nobody bothers to do it because all of the "high airflow" cases are just mesh boxes with solid side panels

karmic wren
#

It shows how the fan config actually pushes the air and what all the intake air goes thru before it gets expelled, and what fans expel most of the air. IMO much better visualization than some random animation

#

Sure the animations can have visualization for air temp but that is on the level of "its like that because i told you its like that"

full fossil
karmic wren
#

Being able to see the smoke get sucked in from the front and then see it go thru GPU and get spread out to top / back outlets is super helpful. Would be super nice to have actual testing done for best cases and configs

hollow pulsar
#

The tricky part about smoke tests is they can vary wildly. The general concept still applies, the the specifics are uncontrollable. For example, a case manufacturer provides a smoke test video. But you bought a blower-style GPU, which is going to make the airflow very different than the video.

karmic wren
#

https://youtu.be/SKHl1REVUgU?t=462 imagine having videos like this of multiple different cases with different fan configs. Would give you so much more info when trying to figure out what case/fans you want to get

Ahh thank you . But my friend said that the m27q show blurrier text . Is it worth investing 60$ more just to get rid of this. In case the m27q might sold out

This is a problem i think LTT can solve

#

the only thing i need to know is if there is a load baring ceiling fan?

why think of the old lan party pic in a basement dude was duct taped with his crt to the ceiling

#

my thought Duct tape + house full of load baring ceiling fans = ENTIRE FAMILY ON CEILING FANS IN THEIR OWN ROOM.

#

bonus add in some home automation and you can control it all from your phone after they are affixed to the fans ofc

Alright, you seem to be talking about this exact thing here, kinda. I'm looking at buying two 27" ips-monitors. The Odyssey G5 (S27G500) and the LG Ultragear 27GP83B are avaliable for the same price for black friday. Does anyone have any experience of either one that might help me make up my mind?

#

They both seems to have their pros and cons, like the LG having issues with getting stuck in deep sleep and never getting any updates to fix that, or the samsung having weak hdr

#

But how big issues are those?

used to work with rma's for a major retailer here, and the amount of returns of msi gpus (per sold product) was way higher than for every other manufacturer. This was a few years ago, but those stats kinds stick around

But they might've improved, and that's great for them if they have
