Why?

[manic torrent]

If you don't know, I can't tell you

[full fossil]

Bro all I am asking is for some help I am getting an error

[manic torrent]

an error? oh damn!

[native ridge]

Hey guys so I was thinking of buying a Lenovo IdeaPad gaming 3 with rtx 3050 and core i5 11 th gen and there is one issue that it has windows 11. I want to change the os. Does changing os void warranty in Lenovo?

[full fossil]

Lmao xD

[manic torrent]

to what

[native ridge]

Win 10

[manic torrent]

why.

complete waste of time.

[full fossil]

Ya I need some help to fix it

[native ridge]

I like win 10 more as a personal preference

And valorant doesn't run on win 11

[full fossil]

I really wanna make a fusion reactor at home

[manic torrent]

it sounds serious

[native ridge]

So like will it void the warranty?

[manic torrent]

yes it does.

[native ridge]

It does? I have tried soo many times but it did not work for me for idk what reason

[manic torrent]

because you did not have proper TPM, which that laptop has

[full fossil]

I heard this before, install league launcher and download valorant from there

[native ridge]

Ohh

[native ridge]

Sry to ask but what does TPM mean

[manic torrent]

trusted platform module - it's how security is enforced

[native ridge]

Ok ok

So what do I have to do to make it work?

[manic torrent]

nothing

[native ridge]

God I am a stupid guy fr sry man for taking your time

Have a great day

[manic torrent]

lol no worries 😄

[manic torrent]

... do you see how it's done?

[full fossil]

Ragingwasabi helped me bro

[manic torrent]

Did you start by .... saying what your problem was?

[full fossil]

Bro check the thread tou will find all your answers

[manic torrent]

oh, I don't need answers

[sweet grail]

Well I did it 😅 hard way but I did it which is the only thing that matters

[wispy marsh]

Bob, do you have answers on to how to make peace with your present?

[indigo plume]

We need more competition on gpu market

[wispy marsh]

How hard can it be?

[indigo plume]

Amd a d nivida quality control is worrying

[full fossil]

Just wait till the x86 dies and you will have hundreds of options xP

[wispy marsh]

To be fair

Apple's QC is also worrying

[manic torrent]

I do. first, you have to forgive yourself

[indigo plume]

How do the 7900 release in its current stare

Like did they not test

[wispy marsh]

https://youtu.be/7cNg_ifibCQ

Here, enjoy Apple's QC

[full fossil]

I rather eat salt

[wispy marsh]

But

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BK3vpD2fuA

[fervent prairie]

Not all cards seem to suffer from the hotspot temp issue. So if you consider a lot a copium, no one in testing might have ever noticed it.

[wispy marsh]

I'm on keto, and I'd rather eat salt too. Need a lot of it.

[sweet grail]

It was Because I screwed up

Originally I had it in mbr but switched it to gpt then I cloned the drive

But Because it was working I deleted the old drive but the boot efi? Or something never moved over

[full fossil]

Don't die xP

[wispy marsh]

No, because I do not have carbs retaining enough water in my body, I literally need salt to do it. But I digress.

[sweet grail]

I Basiccly reinstalled windows 10 on the drive then made a new efi partition on old drive 😅

[full fossil]

You also need vitamins and other shit :V

[wispy marsh]

Yes

I digress

[full fossil]

Stop digressing xD

Someone say something

[grand tiger]

Hello guys, I need an advice from you all:
I bought a Sapphire rx 7900 xtx nitro + for 1370€ on december 13th.
I did not get my GPU yet and i have no idea when my oder will come in. Probably weeks or more.
I could get an Msi rtx 4080 suprim X for 1550€ and cancel my order.
The pros/cons of getting the 4080 are :

• About same perf
• A lot less consumption (100-150W less)
• Better/Easier resell after using the gpu in a few years? (Probably)
• Gpu in stock. Can get it in a few days
• ~200€ more

So.. what should I do? Keep or change GPU?

[wanton glade]

What do you do with your pc

gaming or productivity @grand tiger

[grand tiger]

Gaming

[wanton glade]

keep the amd gpu

unless for some dumb reason, your reaaaally want ray tracing

[grand tiger]

Not really

But why do u think the amd one is a better choice ?

[full fossil]

u wont have support for dlss,ray tracing,opticX and probably get less fps with amd :V
that said, i would still get amd cuz im running linux XD

[wanton glade]

better at gaming + faster + cheaper + won't melt for any reason

[signal bronze]

Can someone help me make a parts list

[grand tiger]

Significantly faster or barely even better?

[wanton glade]

and also, unless you work in an industry that needs a good gpu for work, get amd

[wanton glade]

significantly faster, always been

[grand tiger]

Yup it’s just for gaming

[wanton glade]

tho I ain't too sure about that

but one thing for sure is that it's better for gaming

[full fossil]

i would bet my money amd is 10% slower :V

[grand tiger]

I think it rly depends on games

And overall its the same

Though, we need to not forget it’s more efficient, and could be sold easier after using it in a few years

[wanton glade]

💀

[wanton glade]

yeah

[grand tiger]

Less consumption = less expensive on energy bill

[full fossil]

i take my words back, its 1% faster xD

[wanton glade]

[wanton glade]

📠

[grand tiger]

And what do yall think with during the resell in a few years? Is my opinion.. true? Easier to resell Nvidia than Amd?

[signal bronze]

Who Can help me MAKE a parts list

[grand tiger]

With RT ? Or without

[full fossil]

with random article
https://www.techspot.com/review/2599-radeon-7900-xtx-vs-geforce-rtx-4080/

[grand tiger]

@wanton glade ? @full fossil ?

[wanton glade]

Eh, you can resell them both easily imo

[wanton glade]

without. amd is real bad at ray tracing, don't even try lol

[full fossil]

no idea xP my r9 290 amd card dropped from like 300eur to 30 xD

[grand tiger]

Uh in the end I’m not rly convinced, I’ll wait and think a lil bit

[full fossil]

Hey got a question about truenas

I installed it using rufus putting it in a flash drive and I finished the setup but why won't it connect ti the WiFi I have my WiFi adapter plugged in

Do I need an Ethernet cable

im gonna wait till next generation from amd :V

[full fossil]

Or can I use this

The WiFi adapter

🤦‍♂️

same xP and i use linux :V

[simple quail]

NVIDIA has been dead to me because of their treatment of the open-source community, and everyone else as well, it seems

AMD is such a smooth experience compared to NVIDIA on Linux

[full fossil]

yes, yes it is xP

[simple quail]

I couldn't save my life to run Wayland on NVIDIA

[full fossil]

they only needed to do one thing, release their linux drivers as open source xD

[simple quail]

they did, but they locked it down so you cannot run modified code, AFAIK

I like being able to take the system completely apart and tweak just about everything about it

[full fossil]

really? im only aware of nouveau being open source

which is really crap xD

[simple quail]

the newer graphics cards, like 30 and 40 series (maybe 20?) have open-source kernel modules, IIRC

[simple quail]

it's crap, but it's impressive, as they're doing it by reverse-engineering the cards

[wanton glade]

apparently it is worth it, plus it doesn't have the dumbass 12pins

[full fossil]

im not aware of this :V i still needed to get nvidia drivers separately in arch

[wanton glade]

if you buy by brand name tho, I say 💀

[simple quail]

which graphics card do you have?

[full fossil]

2080ti

[simple quail]

huh, maybe it only applies to ≥30 series

[full fossil]

and arch wiki didn't mention anything about it being included, tho ill check later xD

[simple quail]

it's also possible they're not in the mainline kernel yet

[signal bronze]

Is this a good price for the pc

@turbid falcon hi

they are both 900 dollars right

it be like that

here’s a 1440p chart

sorry for the black bars i’m on mobile

[indigo plume]

so its just a slightly worse 7900xt

[night heron]

it’s basically last gen flagship performance for $800 which isn’t great

the 7900xt is poor value too

go with performance

[finite cloud]

The intel one should be on par with the 3060 ti and can do most games well. For the price it’s a good gpu

[sonic barn]

intel has already lost 250+ billion marketshare and is in 1/3 debt

if you wanna gamble, buy arc but you may not have good support ever

[full fossil]

Yes xP worst place

[sonic barn]

amd and nvidia you'll at least get support no matter what

[night heron]

intel is losing a lot of market share primarily because of epyc

epyc has been paddling intel on the ass since it launched

xeon just can’t compete

it was, but ryzen 7000 has the worst sales of any cpu generation in a while

[sonic barn]

[night heron]

lunch time soon and i am the hunger

[sonic barn]

all sales are down however intel gets a huge hit since the consumer space is a lot more

https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net/_ef0e74a029a7ab7ac2a7aade0699acb6/intel/db/887/8873/earnings_presentation/Q3'2022+Earnings+Deck.pdf

this one is easier to follow than their statement

mobileye was their savior but it failed launch

so intel might actually get picked up by someone later probably the us government

imo they will file chapter 11 due to the whole debt situation and low cash flow

[sonic barn]

amd is doing great though

looking through their stuff rn

[night heron]

from ryzen 3000 and 5000 sales yeah

[sonic barn]

they can pay off all their debt and have 1 billion left

40mm i believe

[sonic barn]

you can negotiate orders with the seller if you only need like 20 of em

[gilded plinth]

Buy 20k fans, easy

[full fossil]

i only need 3 lmao

[gilded plinth]

10k fans pull, 10k fans push?? /s

[sonic barn]

even then you can just ask sellers

they'll give you a discount

just gotta be nice

but 3 fans they won't

I'll say minimum 20

and that's like 1$ a fan

[full fossil]

I get noctua fans are great and all but how are they still alive lol

The company itself i mean

[sonic barn]

2 months for them to arrive usually

[sage quiver]

Why wouldn't they be alive?

They sell premium products at premium prices

[full fossil]

They sell fans that spin and move air

[sonic barn]

they got patents too if ever they need to sell the company

[full fossil]

Those who buy them overthink it a lot

[gilded quest]

don't they have a sizable enterprise business?

[sonic barn]

everything noctua makes is patented usually, same with other companies

and they got private investors

[sage quiver]

Not really? I'm happy paying a bit extra for excellent craftsmanship, well-engineered mounting and excellent ethics.

If anything, they're the no-brainer option.

[leaden gale]

I'm not happy that I have to pay extra for the ethically produced fans to be the color that basically every other case fan out there already is.

[sonic barn]

define ethically

[leaden gale]

I'm just saying that based on Jawa's comment

[sonic barn]

they have production sites in china and taiwan

[sage quiver]

I was moreso referring to policies than manufacturing

[full fossil]

Do they even have magnetic bearings?

[sage quiver]

https://noctua.at/en/sso2-bearing

[gilded plinth]

Kinda cool that they also include some accessories with the fans, the extension cable was handy

[full fossil]

Interesting xP

[gloomy zenith]

Is the ltt beanie enormous for anyone else?

[gilded quest]

no it fits me quite well

[gloomy zenith]

It could just me not normally wearing a beanie tbh

[gilded quest]

is the circumference too big, or does it have extra length at the tip?

I double it up at the edges so the LTT tag is visible

[gloomy zenith]

It just feels loose, idk i'll experiment with it tonight when i have free time

[gilded quest]

uhhh

i can't remember if mine shrunk after washing a few times or not

I think beanies are meant to be a bit loose in general tho

I have one thats more snug than my LTT & college beanies, and that one is kinda painful to wear after a while

[gloomy zenith]

Yeah thats kinda what i figured. At worst it'll just be loose, and i'll still wear tf outta it

[gloomy zenith]

Very fair, i'd prefer it being comfortable over snug and tight

[gilded quest]

plus its one size fits all

its gonna be tighter on some and looser on others

[runic lagoon]

One size fits most.

[gloomy zenith]

Valid. I'm not super worried just wanted to know people's opinions

[idle skiff]

Paid $245 for my monitor, it broke and sent it to Acer repair, it's not covered under warranty and they want $180 to repair it

[cursive ginkgo]

Has anyone ever done an RMA with Corsair? I did an advanced RMA for my K100 as my volume wheel stopped working. They sent back a refurbished unit with a scratched screen and chipped key caps. Waiting on their response now.

[full fossil]

Broke how?

[idle skiff]

I'm not surprised they didn't cover it under warranty it was a last ditch effort lol

A vinyl record fell off my wall display about 4 feet and it landed wedged in between the LCD panel and trim at the bottom edge of the monitor, in a gap that I didn't know existed until I had a gigantic black vertical bar about 3-4 inches wide on the screen

I'm not shocked they didn't cover it there was a small part of me like maybe they'll somehow think it was caused by a manufacturing error for some reason lol

[full fossil]

🤦‍♂️

[idle skiff]

Ruined my day when it happened, one in a billion odds of it landing the way it did

so now Acer has my monitor in Texas, I can repair it for most of the original price and receive a refurbished product that god knows if it'll break again or I just cut my losses and bite the bullet of buying a new one

Is there even a point in me asking for it back? I don't know how to repair it and any small repair shop would probably charge a significant amount too for an unknown quality job

[cursive ginkgo]

Can you keep it as a side monitor and buy a new one, even if used I feel like you can get a decent gaming monitor for that price if you must have a new one

[idle skiff]

I've got my 1080p side monitor that was used for basically Spotify and discord as my main monitor for now

the black bar is dead in the center basically of the nice monitor

1440p, 32 inch, 165hz rest in piss

got it during a good Amazon sale

And of course this all happens immediately after holiday sales are over

Wait am I able to send images now wtf

Oh probably floatplane yaya

[gilded quest]

ew

what happened to it

[vapid smelt]

Nice dual monitor set up

[idle skiff]

I think my best effort is just saying fuck it and buying a new one at this point next time a good sale comes along. Absolutely nothing I can do with the old one that Acer currently has apart from take up my limited storage space, so it might as well just tell em to keep it

[finite cloud]

well if you're gonna buy a new one i think you should just have acer repair it since you'll save some money at the very least

[idle skiff]

for a refurbished product & presumably cut warranty?

[vapid smelt]

At the store I work at we can't lay TV's flat in people's cars since they can flex and destroy the panel... Maybe since it was curved and probably had piss poor packing material that happened

[idle skiff]

It broke during my ownership, sent it to Acer under a warranty, and they just called back saying it will not be covered under warranty and I can pay a $180 repair fee if I want them to try and fix it

[vapid smelt]

Oh

[idle skiff]

I've had it since July

[vapid smelt]

Wtf

[idle skiff]

The story is kinda buried by my other messages but a vinyl record fell off the wall about 3-4 feet and it landed wedged between the LCD panel and the plastic trim at the bottom, in a gap I didn't know was there lol

[gilded quest]

rip

[idle skiff]

It's so unbelievably specific that it sounds like a lie

[vapid smelt]

I see why they didn't cover it

[idle skiff]

Really wish I took pictures while it was in there but I was just in oh-shit mode

Oh yeah I'm not surprised at all that they didn't cover it

I knew they probably wouldnt, it was a last ditch effort

[vapid smelt]

But how the fuck did it land perfectly in it lmao

[idle skiff]

What were my other options though? Do nothing? Lol

[idle skiff]

Still asking myself the same question

[gilded quest]

just replace it pretty much

[idle skiff]

didn't know there was a gap here, Honestly I don't think there even was one until it happened

[vapid smelt]

I would totally keep it to use as a dual monitor setup :p

[idle skiff]

I don't have room for a third monitor :0 using what was my side 1080 p monitor now

[vapid smelt]

Can't you put zones in a monitor so it acts like 2 or more?

[idle skiff]

Probably idk

Old picture I have a new case/sad Linus mousepad/keyboard

Big monitor in the center, the side monitor is now my only

[vapid smelt]

Wonder if putting one of Asus link things down the middle would work

[idle skiff]

Sad Linus really fits the vibe

Intel flushed out the 13th gen cpu line

Hey so are rubber roller wheels worth it for my chair?

[manic torrent]

only you can know that answer!

[vapid smelt]

If you like to easily roll around like if you have a big work area I guess

[finite cloud]

You’re missing Corsair psu, cables, and cooler

[slender jetty]

Are they kinda a scam tho or are they decent like no chairs come with them so idk if they are great

[finite cloud]

Oh you did get a cooler never mind

[ebon otter]

I’ve had a Corsair psu. It exploded so I won’t use them again. And it has a custom loop

[hollow zealot]

Ah shoot did CES start today

[manic torrent]

It changes the feel of the chair, so it's really about you personally

it's not objectively "better". Some rolling resistance is normal and useful

[ebon otter]

[hoary scarab]

Old was
AMD Ryzen 5 1400 (lmao)
New is AMD Ryzen 5 5600

As you can see im still a few years behind

[mild elm]

Let’s go

[hoary scarab]

I'd get like 60 - 144 Frames (very inconsistent) on fortnite
Now I'm getting more like 80 - 144

[mild elm]

Nice

[vapid smelt]

I get 0

[hoary scarab]

lmao

[hoary scarab]

I do have a worry tho, my fan was slightly bigger than the metal bracket so I could only get 2 screws on it. I can always switch to the old fan but idk what do yall think

am I putting too much stress on those 2 screws?

[manic torrent]

eh, screws are optional 🙂

Interesting. LTT get 97 FPS FH5 4k ultra on a 3090ti, I get 110 on a 3080ti

[vapid smelt]

Liquid cooled 3080ti?

[manic torrent]

oh, and that's ultra, I'm using extreme

[manic torrent]

shhhhhhhhhhh

[hoary scarab]

lmao

[manic torrent]

oh lol and it boosts to 2ghz (standard boost clock 1665 )

[full fossil]

Use zip ties

[hoary scarab]

how the heck do I put zip ties on a CPU cooler

[full fossil]

Oh

Thought you meant case fan

[vapid smelt]

3090ti is 1.86 I believe

[hoary scarab]

nah if it was a case fan I wouldnt care at all about 2 miss screws

[lyric plinth]

Why

[hoary scarab]

read the above chats

[lyric plinth]

What CPU cooler

[vapid smelt]

It should use the same mounting and shit.... How did it not go on all the way

[hoary scarab]

I have no clue, I even took the metal bracket and put the CPU cooler straight on it was off by like a CM

[vapid smelt]

If it's not secured right it could have uneven pressure and ruin your thermals

[hoary scarab]

maybe

[fossil frost]

no maybe... definitely

[hoary scarab]

I'll check back in on it later, I need a break rn so ima see how this runs

[lyric plinth]

Still doesn't answer my question

[fossil frost]

if your cooler isnt on properly, you could also permanently damage your cpu

[hoary scarab]

fr?

[fossil frost]

yep

[hoary scarab]

ughhh, okay no break lemme fix this lmao

[lyric plinth]

What CPU cooler

[hoary scarab]

stock AMD

[lyric plinth]

Ah

Yeah if those screws actually need to be tightened down you need to do it evenly

[full fossil]

100%

[lyric plinth]

All four of em

[full fossil]

Yes

[lyric plinth]

You risk shit thermals and even fucking the CPU

[full fossil]

new cpu's get dangerously hot even with coolers properly mounted, imagine what it'll be like with it janked up

[lyric plinth]

So idk what exact issues you are having but you can't zip tie a cooler down

If it's the stock cooler, you use the stock bracket that comes with the Mobo.

Idk if the orientation matters on the stock cooler

[full fossil]

It can only mount right side up or upside down. Logo will look right or be upside down

[lyric plinth]

Ah

[hoary scarab]

I can’t send a picture here so I’ll send it in #tech-chat-2

Nvm I can’t get a good photo lol

But it’s like a few centimeters off

[lyric plinth]

The holes to mount the fan?

[full fossil]

Try getting the first screw barely started then push down on the cooler to barely start the next on the opposite corner until all 4 catch threads

[lyric plinth]

He was talking about the fan

So I'm confused as to what his issue is now

[full fossil]

Im confused too

[lyric plinth]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[full fossil]

Isnt the stock cooler fan clip on?

No screws? So did he jank it up?

[lyric plinth]

No it has screws

[fossil frost]

noope, thats intel, AMDs screw down

[full fossil]

Hmmm

[lyric plinth]

The wraith is diff

I think

[full fossil]

Did you try other orientations

[lyric plinth]

I don't even understand why the fan is off in the first place

[full fossil]

Same

[lyric plinth]

The 5600 comes with a stock cooler

[full fossil]

This is a diwhy topic

[lyric plinth]

This is the kind of case where you just ignore them and let them figure it out

[full fossil]

Tbh stock cooler bad anyways id get a better one

aren't titans astronomically expensive

something about being a workstation gpu rather than a "normal" card

If you can get an xtx at msrp thats awesome

Its annoying for casual gaming but for competitive its nice to see more surroundings that others cant see. Its also nice in racing games

So depends what you want

[full fossil]

You are stuck with chairs that suck in that range unfortunately.

Secret labs is probably your best choice in that range but i hate that chair.

[last scroll]

There's got to be chairs that don't suck for 500-600 dollars lol

[vapid smelt]

I'm just shy of 6 foot https://a.co/d/628NxTh and use this, it's great just lacks some adjustability

[summer folio]

I think I paid 200$ for my Beast Gaming Chair

weighted like 30-40kg

[last scroll]

Mm interesting I've seen very similar to this before, you like?

[last scroll]

You weighed that?

[vapid smelt]

I love it

[last scroll]

Well amazon = return policy so

[full fossil]

I havent been able to find a chair that i like in that range for extended sitting periods

They feel fine for an hour or two but any longer and your back and hips suffer

[summer folio]

I got to lend the pallet truck from the post office, to carry it home. lmao

[full fossil]

And your posture too.

[vapid smelt]

https://www.btod.com/blog/best-office-chairs-300/ the chair people did a review on it to

[last scroll]

Yeah 2000 dollars I just can't be asked to spend that. I'm not old at all so no back/hip pains just looking to avoid it in future you know.

Would like a headrest, current 100 chair doesn't have one. I'll definitely check yours out @vapid smelt

[vapid smelt]

The headrest has a lot of up and down adjustment

[last scroll]

What's not adjustable?

[vapid smelt]

It is

It tilts and can move up and down to fit your height

[last scroll]

So it seems overall most people here would recommend office > gaming chairs correct

[vapid smelt]

Hell yes

#tech-chat-2 My 80 lbs gaming chair.

[last scroll]

That's literally horrific lol

[vapid smelt]

https://youtu.be/9Yhc6mmdJC4 gaming chairs are cheaply built and suck for your body

[summer folio]

Yes, that gaming chair looks horrible

Why is it so small

[wraith sonnet]

The Ikea upspel is kinda good ngl

[summer folio]

@vapid smelt The one I bought does not "hug you"

I personally dislike headrests but to each their own

[last scroll]

I was looking forward to a headrest because I can't ever rest my head if I'm watching something

[summer folio]

Maybe you should to more deadlift/shrugs

[last scroll]

I have a thick ass neck

[summer folio]

I can just lean my head back alittle,
& my head rests on my trapezius muscles

[vapid smelt]

I lean back in mine to watch YouTube

[last scroll]

But my brains just so fucking massive

[summer folio]

🏋️

[full fossil]

I hate headrests because they hurt my neck more than not having one and its irritating not being able to swivel my head especially when gaming

How's everyone doing the weathers nuts here everything is flooded roads are closed vehicles submerged under water winds blowing everything like crazy

🤔 i think my isopropanol is garbage quality

it makes white residues after its dried

[vapid smelt]

Copy paste

[polar fern]

Cool https://youtu.be/VhYEOG9LOIk

Yeah, I have a $80 office chair from IKEA and it works great.

[full fossil]

What’s ikea

[polar fern]

I could never recommend a “gaming chair” especially with how inflexible most are from an ergonomics standpoint

[vapid smelt]

I love mesh chairs other than the seat

[polar fern]

Yeah I can’t recommend mesh. Very harsh for long use times

[vapid smelt]

I'm naturally hot 😏 and sweat easily so mesh back is a must

[fluid ridge]

does anyone unironically use sony vegas

[polar fern]

Very few good mesh chairs

[fluid ridge]

i just bought it from humble bundle and this shit is ass holy

somehow worse than premiere

[vapid smelt]

I had to Google what it was

[gilded quest]

Isn't it mostly for movie & tv studios

[polar fern]

I am actually looking at editing software from a company that also makes other stuff like media players for optical drives

[fluid ridge]

i cannot believe anyone uses this professionally

this cannot be the standard

[polar fern]

Countless people use it.

[fluid ridge]

the free version of davinci resolve claps both premiere and this garbage

[gilded quest]

I just assumed Sony would use it at Sony pictures somehow

[polar fern]

Dunno what to tell ya

[fluid ridge]

i paid 30 dollars but at least it went to charity so i dont feel too bad

[fluid ridge]

they should look into alternatives

[polar fern]

I’m sure they’ll listen to someone from the LTT discord

[fluid ridge]

it looks terrible, it keeps crashing, it's very slow, it comes packaged with bloatware, the functions and capabilities are limited, etc.

davinci resolve supremacy

[polar fern]

Kay

[gilded quest]

I love resolve

[fluid ridge]

their free version is insane

it makes you wonder why would you use anything else

[polar fern]

Sounds like you’re very opinionated about the topic

[gilded quest]

If you get FCP from apples education store it isn't a terrible price for a perpetual license

[fluid ridge]

how much is that?

[gilded quest]

Uhhh

[fluid ridge]

dont you need an apple machine to use FCP though

[fluid ridge]

extremely

[gilded quest]

You do, should add: and a Mac user

[fluid ridge]

i am currently in a state of something less than irritation but a little more than joy that i paid 30 dollars for this garbanzo

[fluid ridge]

holy crap

i actually might pick that up despite not owning a mac

[polar fern]

This is what I plan on getting soon https://www.cyberlink.com/products/powerdirector-video-editing-software/overview_en_US.html

[gilded quest]

For a perpetual license, pretty good

[fluid ridge]

look into resolve's free version @polar fern

[polar fern]

No thanks

[fluid ridge]

it will meet the needs of 99% of non professional users

and imo it looks the best as well

[polar fern]

I’ve already had tons of recommendations for this software from people who are big on YouTube

[inland pendant]

lmao discord is borked

[fluid ridge]

to each their own i guess

[inland pendant]

Discord thinking im developing in a proprietary engine

[polar fern]

Plus on my Lenovo, I actually have the software that runs the optical drive media playback & it’s feature packed & really well made from stability to ux

Same dev team

Okay, I need to have some lox on a croissant bun

Tasty fish mm
