[young root]

damn you guys are making me want to buy a deck

[fossil dirge]

You should get it it's great LOL 😆

[wispy marsh]

I don't have it

But I would get one

[young root]

once i have my replacement trans in my truck i'll buy one

[wet gale]

im going to watercool a watercoolerr

[young root]

priorities

[hoary quail]

why do you keep a trans in your truck?

[young root]

long story....

[wispy marsh]

[manic torrent]

it's called a heat exchanger

[fossil dirge]

I have the Steam Deck and I love it

[hoary quail]

i don't get the point of the steam deck

[wispy marsh]

I don't have the stream deck and I don't have the steam deck

[wet gale]

fine ill watercool one of those or something idk

[young root]

it's a less inconvenient gaming laptop

[fossil dirge]

The Steam Deck is powerful, it can handle games, and you can play it anywhere

[manic torrent]

basically it's for people who don't hate life and aren't grumpy assholes to enjoy things

[hoary quail]

yea but i don't play games outside of my home

[young root]

you're one of few

[wispy marsh]

People returning to offices because the rich leeches can't get their ROI, thus long journeys and the Deck presents a much much much better way of playing games on the go. Plus, hall-effect sensors available.

[wet gale]

*as long as its not underwater or in 40°C+ weather (or something like that)

[young root]

it's great for breaks at work, it'll fit in a bag

and doesn't take a charger to game on

[fossil dirge]

Yeah LOL 😆

[hoary quail]

so it's the bomb if you game on the go

wild

[kind reef]

I guess

[wispy marsh]

It's also an extremely cheap basic office device if you have the dock.

[manic torrent]

If you live alone and never leave your house, probably not ideal

[hoary quail]

i just don't like gaming outside my home

[wet gale]

My old phone screen popped out because

1. Hot Weather
2. Dropped during the bus ride cuz Bus Driver breaking too fast

[wispy marsh]

I can see Bob's son using the Deck on his camping trip

[fossil dirge]

I can use the Steam Deck anywhere

I want to bring my Steam Deck when I'm on my flight to Puerto Rico

[hoary quail]

did you see the ltt video with the battery pack for the van

[manic torrent]

he has an ipad which he loves. tbh I would buy him a deck if he could use it 🙂

[wispy marsh]

You know it

[normal cargo]

Steam deck is also a god send if the misses is watching trash TV

[hoary quail]

lmao

[fossil dirge]

Yup LOL 😆

[wispy marsh]

[hoary quail]

there's an entire harvard course on youtube

gotta love 21st century

[wet gale]

im watercooling a watercooled watercooler thats watercooled by a watercooler with watercooling

[manic torrent]

wow. You're so clever. Maybe you should try watercooling your brain.

[wispy marsh]

Hey wait, Bob do you give him a controller to use the iPad with?

[wet gale]

ive done that 3 years ago

[hollow pulsar]

My whole body is water cooled

[manic torrent]

nah he just uses the touch screen. He's all over it. He can start baby shark story on the fucking nest home hub

I don't even know how he found it

[wet gale]

that i only did last month

[wispy marsh]

Baby shark dododododoodododod

[manic torrent]

like he will start the web browser with two side by side windows and watch two videos at once

[wispy marsh]

Yeah, you can do that with iPad, but only up to two windows unless you're using the M1 iPad Pro

[kind reef]

[hollow pulsar]

Were you a bit of a raisin before? 😉

[wet gale]

nah, air cooling was fine but now that im getting warmer i put water cooling in

i did it with blue dye too

[hollow pulsar]

Ah. Blueman group member

[manic torrent]

bit of the old trepanation?

[wet gale]

nah...

[fleet wing]

Whats a good second hand price for a Gtx 1080ti strix?

[kind reef]

time to get a coffee

[sweet jetty]

Harvard offers courses for free too, all the CS50s

[hoary quail]

yea

[sonic barn]

200$ max

[kind reef]

would a 3060ti (if that exists) be faster/better? (probably not)

Because for a couple more bucks you could get that one then.

[trim cairn]

Hello

[full fossil]

[full fossil]

yes, its the most complicated setup i ever done XD
mohist+ftb

[normal cargo]

3060ti smashes 1080ti, by that reasoning the 6700xt and mebbe the 6650xt could be better options *shrug

[sonic barn]

Fur e Minecraft server

[full fossil]

no cats allowed :V

[sonic barn]

😭

[full fossil]

lol

[kind reef]

Good to know, it's been a long time since I checked and compared GPU speeds

[normal cargo]

I think the 1080ti isn't far from a 3060 so 6600xt is prolly good ebough

[plush rivet]

No lol, a 1080ti gets smoked by a 3060

[round trellis]

hello!

[young root]

i have a 1080 ti :((

[round trellis]

[plush rivet]

I thought you said 1050ti, that’s why I was so shocked lol

[normal cargo]

[normal cargo]

Not to be a twat but you said 1080 in your reply too :p

[plush rivet]

[plush rivet]

I think I wasent paying attention that entire conversation

[glacial tendon]

Phones are too huge these days

But i still love the huge screens

I loved the easily reachable screen of my SE 1

[finite cloud]

This is my favorite phone

The glorious iPhone 12 Mini

[young root]

i just got 18 fps on ark

[full fossil]

nice gg

[young root]

i'm so upset that i turned on my main computer to see if the other one sucks

[full fossil]

ark is just....ark

[young root]

yeah but 18 fps on a 6700xt

thats inexcusable

[full fossil]

Ark 🪄

[full fossil]

What CPU do you have? Because it should get more

ah no

That was not FHD xD

[young root]

i've now realized i was somehow cpu limited

[kind reef]

what CPU are you using?

[young root]

it's a xeon w3680

[kind reef]

quite old

4 core, 3.4ghz or so, right?

[young root]

i raised the clocks to 4.2ghz and no core used more than 50%

6 core 12 thread

[gilded plinth]

ofc it's moondrop

[finite cloud]

Can you believe this was free?

You’re a rainbow now

[gilded plinth]

headphones that (I think) only r/headphones users buy

[mortal estuary]

once in a while i see a blocked message, other than that it's mostly normal people having a conversation in the chat here

[young root]

who asked

literally

[mortal estuary]

i can say what ever i want within the rules

woah, no need to swear

do you know what micro aggression is?

you guys are doing it

[young root]

you can't be human

[mortal estuary]

ok stay angry, it's your emotions not mine

[kind reef]

No, I'm a bird, can't you see?

[young root]

BROOOO

that explains the fucking feathers everywhere

do bird feathers fall off?

ok my point stands

[mortal estuary]

you guys are spammy in the chat

[cursive wadi]

Ofcourse LTT had a Discord. Hello

[kind reef]

ahh darn, can't use stickers, staff gets very mad

[young root]

are stickers banned?

[kind reef]

yes

[young root]

i have that one on my car

[mortal estuary]

i am blocking lycorisdecoil and gang6881 - i suggest others do the same

[young root]

let's gooooo

[kind reef]

nah, not yet

[young root]

#blessed

[mortal estuary]

in time, you will see the truth young grasshopper

[young root]

me and lycoris are bffs

[full fossil]

cry me a river

I am blocking you.

[young root]

[gilded plinth]

Anyway

[mortal estuary]

teenagers blocking me, i don't mind

[full fossil]

Wow, i thought with my 26 Years i am not a teenager anymore....glad that boomer told me, else i wouldnt know

[mortal estuary]

i love this server

[young root]

guys let's see how many people he can block

[full fossil]

i "love" you

[mortal estuary]

well you saw my message, i guess i was not blocked

[kind reef]

quick question: are you annoyed by all the "x blocked message..."?
I used to have a Discord script that removed that text, cleans up interface pretty well.

[full fossil]

How many ppl are on the server?

[young root]

omw to get blocked

[mortal estuary]

and you doxed yourself, mr. 26 year old

[young root]

i'm mr.18 19 in 7 days

[full fossil]

There is a Button

To view blocked messages. It is funny reading your twisted mind, so i clicked it. If you wanna see if i blocked you try reacting to me. Then u will see if i blocked you.

[kind reef]

[mortal estuary]

if i had the money i would bribe people to switch your toilet paper out with sandpaper

[full fossil]

Its not like i already wrote it 6 Times on this server.....

And doxxing is something different then telling stuff of myself....

[young root]

me getting blocked at 200 mph

[full fossil]

Wow. You must really be butthurt....

So that you want that others butts hurt too

[full fossil]

I can block you, if that makes you happy. Dont have a reason right now, but i dont mind

[young root]

no

[full fossil]

Okay

[mortal estuary]

no, please don't, please! i beg you

[young root]

lmao that wasn't for you bald man

[kind reef]

[young root]

vin diesel is the coolest man to exist

[full fossil]

He is SO relevant, that everything is meant for him

He is a boomer and way smarter than us....so dont correct him

[young root]

i'm gonna watch fast 1-10

you're correct yoda

[full fossil]

but i will really go now....Have fun with the Troll (no one can really be like that....can they???)

[young root]

see ya later

[kind reef]

see ya,
I mean it's the internet after all

[mortal estuary]

i stopped talking and you keep trying to drag it out

"2. Do not harass, disrespect, discriminate against, or otherwise be a dick towards other Discord members (this includes arguing and flame-warring)."

[full fossil]

that looks amazing OwO

[young root]

i've hurt feelings with the word nerd, there's far weaker people out there

[finite cloud]

Thank you :)

[mortal estuary]

ooo i love me some juicy melons

[brazen sundial]

Any good desks under 100?

[young root]

honeydew is the orange one?

[mortal estuary]

yeah on amazon

[young root]

cantaloupe is insane

[brazen sundial]

Was thinking

[young root]

absolutely the best fruit

[mortal estuary]

think about this though, spend $100 on a desk to set up a $1000+ computer and monitors around it?

[young root]

i got my yuge desk from facebook

[mortal estuary]

i would at least spend 200 on the desk

you can get a really good one for that price, solid

[young root]

it was 35$ and it's curved

yeah it's a bit alarming

[mortal estuary]

someone i know put a curved alienware monitor that cost like 2k on a $40 plastic foldable cosco table, it looked terrible

[young root]

i want a bidet

i would support ltt and buy the swipe one but oh my god that guy sucks

the guy who sells it

[mortal estuary]

those tables can easily be bumped into, become unstable and loose balance

they are often used for beer pong at college parties

[young root]

yeah he's a major L

[mortal estuary]

i'd put a laptop on it but i would not set up a desktop unless i was going for super budget build

[young root]

has to be

i lost my watch charger

[full fossil]

lmao

im ok and you?

[young root]

i found my watch charger

[full fossil]

do you think 74c on rx 580 8gb thats using stock thermalpaste and is dusty is fine?

or no

[young root]

yes

[full fossil]

better idea: put a vacuum cleaner on your CPU and let it suck out the heat

[young root]

i had an xfx rx 580 that was scream at like 80c

[full fossil]

:D

[young root]

my magsafe charger broke 😐

[full fossil]

kuma

[full fossil]

i have sapphire nitro+ rx 580 8gb that was used for coal mining

[young root]

damn

it must be black

[full fossil]

ik

yummy

it taste good

[young root]

my main pc is getting 43 fps on ark

i hate this game

[full fossil]

turn graphics down or use GeForce experience

[young root]

on my 6950xt?

[full fossil]

GeForce experience knows best sometimes, Fall Guys runs better with medium-high mix than it does on all low

[young root]

i'm cpu limited with a 5900x

[full fossil]

there might be a Radeon equivalent app but idk because i never learned about radeon cards

[brazen sundial]

What do you guys do about baseboards when it comes to your desk

The gap can be an issue for clean setups and I want to solve it

[pliant karma]

shouldn't with a 6950xt. lol one of my discord buddies had a 3600 paired with a 6900xt so there is that

and I am gpu limited in flight sim with my 3070, but also run the same cpu as you

[sturdy owl]

lol

[native crag]

I just had an epiphany I wanted to share. Anyone remember the SNES and Genesis (Megadrive) console gaming? Not emulators, but actual cartridges that came with manuals; specifically the Final Fantasy 2 manual. It was enough to help you along without dropping spoilers. Love the mob, weapon, and armament list. I swear I wore out the pages over time thumbing through them.

Now today, I introduced my Son to "Zelda - Breath of the Wild" now that he's of the appropriate age. I was struck at how it was missing a manual. The cartridge case contains tabs to hold one like the old 16-bit days, but it's no longer a "thing". Why?!!! Of all games, it could really use a manual in the same vein as Squaresoft's offerings without dropping spoilers.

?

Ahh ok. Yeah, I had discord open and was curious if anyone like-minded wanted to chime in. It probably is deserving of it's own forum thread, but what the heck.. Discord it was

[heady flicker]

there's always gamefaq

most games nowadays have a tutorial and a obvious guide built into the game so a manual is less needed

[hollow pulsar]

A lot of games (these days) are designed with a kind of tutorial mode. This reduces at least in part, the purpose of a manual.

[native crag]

Yeah, I know. Power of the internet and all that. But I do miss the days of going back to a paper manual. Seems to make it more interactive in a twist of irony.

IMHO

[hollow pulsar]

…combined with the information accessibility of the Internet, many game dev’s have dropped the manual (to reduce costs of production)

[native crag]

Kinda forces the discovery of things.

[desert dagger]

I’m still cross that my Horizon Forbidden West collectors ed didnt have a physical game copy in it..

[native crag]

Existing manuals are now a collectors item.

[young root]

i didn't play games when manuals were cool

but i prefer going through a wikipedia page for hours about a game lol

[native crag]

Right, but how do you seperate helpful info without spoiling the game or rushing through it? There's a fine line about it to be sure, but socializing on the Internet about it erases it. Not a good thing.

Half the fun is discovery on your own without feeling super frustrated.

[young root]

my aftermarket key lmao

[native crag]

Thanks. It's hard. As a parent, I'm swimming against the current of society in all his classmates and friends are surrounded by parents that don't enforce proper guidance. Doing the best I can against the zeitgeist of today.

Yeah, perhaps that true so as to not alienate a large market. Sucks though.

The only ones that can get back to the root of this is Nintendo, but they've dropped the ball. Sega is gone, and Squaresoft is a sell-out.

/rant

[golden talon]

I wish I had one

[native crag]

What makes the NES fun wasn't really the games. It was playing with friends and neighbors. Swapping game cartridges for a week was really fun too. That level of interaction is gone playing with rando players online.

And laughing how badly they sucked at it.

[fossil dirge]

Nice Logitech G headset

For me I love Razer

[gilded quest]

i love the "panic" button

[fossil dirge]

LOL 😆

Sonic

[gilded quest]

*** P A N I C***

[fossil dirge]

It's not PONIC it's SONIC

I love Sonic the Hedgehog

[native crag]

"PANIC" someone busted through my window in a smash-n-grab theft attempt.

alarm goes off to scare thief away

[young root]

the key doesn't fucking work , my bcm hardly works

[gilded quest]

get the sonic motherboard

[young root]

it starts the truck but won't unlock it

[fossil dirge]

Hit the Panic button

[fossil dirge]

I want to get it

[native crag]

That Sonic MB does look like a fun PC build

[fossil dirge]

I want to get the Sonic motherboard

[native crag]

I want a Sega MB. Where where when it POSTs, it says "Seeeeggaaaa"

[golden talon]

My key looks like shit which is the issue (couldn’t find another pic for it so i had to use verification one)

it keeps getting scratched up in my pocket lel

[young root]

my factory key had the buttons rub off

[golden talon]

that’s also my issue

[fossil dirge]

BMW makes great cars

[young root]

so i got 2 replacement keys and after removing the screw from the key the key fell out of both

[fossil dirge]

But I prefer to get the Honda Pilot or CR-V

[young root]

i was so pissed

i'm a dodge/chevy guy i hate most foreign cars

[golden talon]

All 3 of my cars have been BMWs

[native crag]

Most cars are great when proper maintenance are done on them

[fossil dirge]

Chevy makes good cars but I prefer Honda

[golden talon]

I can see the honda appeal tbh

my motorbike is a honda

[young root]

i prefer v8s and big v6s

[native crag]

Will never buy another Honda Civic, they're trash.

[fossil dirge]

Really?

[young root]

they're pretty bad

[golden talon]

Bmws are just fun to drive and luxurious so I prefer them

[fossil dirge]

But they're expensive

[golden talon]

Eh

[young root]

it doesn't matter as much as you think

[fossil dirge]

I rather drive Japanese cars like Honda and Toyota

[golden talon]

they aren’t that expensive

[young root]

i almost bought a 3 series for 6000

[golden talon]

Besides i’d def pay a bit more for luxury and speed

[native crag]

RAV4 with a v6. Those 2GR-FE are sweet

[fossil dirge]

That's what I like about BMWs

But I prefer Honda

[golden talon]

I’m an inline 6 guy mostly

i can appreciate a good V8 though

V10s are my favorite

[young root]

my cavalier has a gm 2200, so a truck motor and it's getting a cam

i'm so excited

[fossil dirge]

The Honda Pilot and CR-V are great cars to drive

[native crag]

"There's no replacement for displacement"

[young root]

i disagree

[golden talon]

there is replacement for displacement, always

[young root]

the pilot and crv all handle like shitty toyotas, and i don't like the way the highlander drives

so they just suck

[fossil dirge]

No it doesn't suck

Honda makes great cars

[young root]

yes... it does

[native crag]

I would love a 4Runner

[young root]

do you do any sports car driving?

[fossil dirge]

No

I would like to get a sport car but it's dangerous to drive

[young root]

man that's really boring to say

just don't be a bad driver

[native crag]

Well yeah, people are idiots. That's why it's dangerous to drive around them. 🤣

[fossil dirge]

Exactly

[golden talon]

speed responsibly

[fossil dirge]

I want to get a sport car but it's dangerous to drive

[golden talon]

it’s not

[civic sundial]

you can be as irresponsible as you want, as long as you add "in a video game" to it

[golden talon]

if anything a sports car is less dangerous to drive because you’re more in control of the car

[native crag]

SCCA

[young root]

i've never felt more safe in a car than when i first hit speed limiter in my car lmao

my truck at ~110-120 shakes but my car at 108 is quiet

[native crag]

Never drive with balding tires in the rain.

[young root]

it amazes me

[pliant karma]

lol reminds me when friend ripped his dad's corvette down the street/sorta did a donut in the school parking lot. But it was for a shoot and also friday when my campus is dead dead so security was like I have watch you guys but do as you please

[golden talon]

i’ve only hit my 155 mph speed limiter 2-3 times

cruise control actually holds it pretty well at 155

[native crag]

With hills become ramps at those speeds

[young root]

i'm doing a limited delete soon ish

[golden talon]

True

[young root]

i'm aiming for like 2-250 wheel

so 2-2.5x horsepower increase

[golden talon]

My car only makes 250 wheel

i’m not gonna bother messing with it though

[fossil dirge]

I feel you guys don't know about driving and understand cars

[young root]

you sound like someone who doesn't drive

[golden talon]

i helped build an 800 whp 335i last month

[young root]

genuinely

[fossil dirge]

Well I don't have a car yet

[young root]

BROOOO

[native crag]

It's about understanding physics first and foremost

[fossil dirge]

I want to get the Honda Pilot or CR-V

[young root]

[fossil dirge]

Since those cars are great

[plush rivet]

I want a scat pack so bad

[plush rivet]

My friend has a Honda pilot lol

[plush rivet]

used 2018 I’m looking at right now

[fossil dirge]

I feel like you guys don't get it

[young root]

i'd buy a 2010 5.7 or 6.1

bro computer stop talking

i mean that in a nice way seriously

[native crag]

Toyota or Subaru.

The only Honda I would get is the Odyssey; and that's if you have a family.

[plush rivet]

idk Ik a scat pack is very basic but I’ve always liked them

[fossil dirge]

Oh I see

[young root]

you don't know what you're talking about

[golden talon]

900 bhp go brrrr

[native crag]

Those Odysseys' BTW, are super expensive.

[plush rivet]

all I want is a black scat pack and my life is complete

as basic as it is

[young root]

the scat pack is kinda dumb

[plush rivet]

it is but I love how it looks

[golden talon]

musty GT is way better

[plush rivet]

Hell no

[young root]

if you're handy i'd again buy a 6.1 and build it

[golden talon]

a manual GT is honestly such a good car tbh

[young root]

hell no

[plush rivet]

manual is good I hate the automatic

everyone around me has a GT

[golden talon]

GT mogs Scat pack

[young root]

does the scat come in manual?

[plush rivet]

Nah automatic

[golden talon]

i don’t think so

only the hellcat comes in manual

[plush rivet]

depends on if you build for manual

[young root]

get a 6.1

pleaaaaaaasssseeeeeee

[plush rivet]

idk much about cars so idk what 6.1 is lol

[native crag]

If you live in major city, you'll hate manual

[golden talon]

i drove a 1100 hp hellcat

that clutch is stupid heavy

[native crag]

Damn rush-hour stop-in-go traffic

[young root]

my cavavlier is a manual

it's what i learned to drive manual in

[golden talon]

i’m just looking to buy an M3 this summer and tune it to 800 whp

[plush rivet]

Damn I forgot I can’t send images here

I’m looking at 2 right now

[native crag]

I owned a 91 Miata once. Very fun to drive. Underpowered until you get a supercharger on it. But damn did I hate driving in traffic with it

[young root]

i love how when i race people i just drop a gear whenever i want and their automatic has to wait to downshift

[golden talon]

Oh my gearbox kicks straight from 8th to 2nd

[plush rivet]

29K mikes for 43K isn’t bad right?

[fossil dirge]

I think you guys don't know about cars

[golden talon]

It’s kinda comical how fast it shifts down

[plush rivet]

No shit

[young root]

dokt buy a scat pack

i know nothing about cars

[plush rivet]

your in a tech chat saying we don’t know about cars

wow who would have guessed

[fossil dirge]

Yeah LOL 😆

[young root]

i've never replaced a diff or a transmission

[golden talon]

All i know is about bmws

[plush rivet]

I’d need a lot of convincing

[young root]

i couldn't even name a car on the road

[golden talon]

ask me anything about modern bmws and i can tell you about it

[plush rivet]

I currently love scat packs lol

[native crag]

Never own a VW. That's all I'm saying

[young root]

what engine is in the 8 series

[plush rivet]

The only pain in the ass is the gas per mile

[golden talon]

Except porsche

[plush rivet]

Depends, either you can get a V8 or 6

[young root]

displacement and wheel horse

[plush rivet]

really depends on the car

[young root]

without googling it

[golden talon]

So, I built for myself this top of the line AMD gaming setup this weekend. The first thing I'm doing on it is ... Writing my university paper.

I am using it for studying.

...Well, well, well, look how the turntables-

[full cave]

alright i kinda need a quick answer for this but

[graceful burrow]

This is the slowest question of all time and you expect a quick answer?

[full cave]

is this normal for a cpu? I run 1.4 ghz under load and the base speed is 3.19 ghz. after doing some research, i found out that my cpu should have a higher speed than just 1.3-1.4 ghz. i've tried everything there is to this except for one thing. this even includes updating bios, checking power settings, setting the performance mode to "High Performance", and so on. and I believe i've pinpointed the issue to be one thing- a lack of power available for the cpu at its disposal. I have a 500 watt PSU. My pc has 7 fans, an NZXT water cooler (one fan radiator), a 3060, and 32 gb of RAM, a 120 GB SSD and a 1 TB HDD. could the issue be the PSU?

gpu is fine in performance, its just the cpu

cpu is an i7-8700

[graceful burrow]

Check temps

Use hwinfo64

[full cave]

temps seem fine, averages abt 55 C on load

the clock speed yes

[fossil frost]

is your cooler 1. actually mounted to the cpu. 2. plugged in and running

Key strength is based on length and randomness. One way to strengthen a key is to add a nonce or an Initialization Vector (IV).
The same is true for passwords, which can be strengthened by adding a salt to a hashed password value. Evaluate the following to identify the statements that are true about nonces, Is, and salts. (Select two)
A. The value of a nonce is hidden.
B. A salt could be a counter value.
C. Use of a salt ensures identical plaintexts produce different ciphertexts.
D. Use of an initialization vector ensures identical plaintexts produce different ciphertexts.

I’m simply just very interested and seems like I’ve caught on pretty quick

Okay, ultimately I want to be ready for a job within 3-4 months

Okay, that’s not too bad

Do I honestly need all the ebooks?

Okay I’ll watch that, I shouldn’t be getting A+?

I thought so, seemed very helpdesk

I’d say I’m able to

They won’t expect me to just know everything?

Bottom tier of gpu from 2 generations ago lol

It's not terrible no but it's not great

[manic torrent]

incorrect

[full fossil]

How so

[manic torrent]

1650 is the bottom tier

because why would you have all your GPUs in the same lineup

[full fossil]

Ah never really considered that one as part of that gen but I guess so yeah

[velvet marsh]

if you don't have a 4090 it's terrible /s

[normal cargo]

Is true

[manic torrent]

yeah, but 2060 is absolutely not bottom tier. It's usable.

I have a 3080ti, it's SO SLOW OMG

[full fossil]

Right, like I said it's not bad I just could be doing better for 1080p

I drive three monitors and stream with it on same PC so I'd like an upgrade

[manic torrent]

I run 4k and two 1440, so there's a lot of pixels to drive

One of which is a 360hz

[normal cargo]

It's decent enough, I was on a 290x until 2 years ago and that was still hauling ass at 1080p

[velvet marsh]

I just dropped my 4k monitor for a 1440p one

[full fossil]

I prefer frames to res personally

[velvet marsh]

I got a 1440p 240hz oled

[full fossil]

But that's just because I play competitive stuff

[manic torrent]

4k120 oled for me is perfection

[pliant karma]

Hell yea 2060 gang but I just have mines as an overkill display output on a system atm

[full fossil]

I'd be lucky if I got 60 frames out of 4k on this lol

[velvet marsh]

I was using a TV so the sleep issues and dimming were too much

yeah I'm using the FO48U

Something the poorons wish for

[elfin jetty]

I originally wanted a 3070 but a 3060ti was way cheaper for damn near the same performance at the time

[full fossil]

is 120hz enough? i'm a full stack dev and rarely play games

[velvet marsh]

man mark this NSFW

[manic torrent]

IMHO, absolutely

[pliant karma]

You haven’t seen mines it’s bad enough I can don’t give a crap on redoing it

[velvet marsh]

definitely, I mainly got my monitor to downsize

[normal cargo]

Yea for sure

[normal cargo]

I got a 70, bros got the 60ti, there's really not a lot between them

[elfin jetty]

Im currently running a 75hz monitor, works good enough for me

[manic torrent]

I'm actually testing the USB stuff for behind the monitors, so it has to have all the extensions etc.

[velvet marsh]

My gf got a 90hz oled laptop for school work lol

[normal cargo]

I only got the 70 over the 60ti cos the price was the same

[elfin jetty]

I think its like a 10% fps difference in most games if that

[manic torrent]

I have an oled laptop... it's sitting closed in a holder connected to an egpu, because reasons

[velvet marsh]

hers was also only $600 which was a steal

[elfin jetty]

And its the ventus x3 oc so its

[full fossil]

can I get recommended a 120hz 32 inch monitor

[normal cargo]

It depends on what games, there's a noticeable difference in something like cyberpunk for example, but bang for buck the 60ti wins hands down

[manic torrent]

oh damn. Mine was ...significantly more.

[velvet marsh]

Brand new too, it's an Asus with a 1240p 8gb and 256 ssd

[elfin jetty]

I had a gtx 1070 before, i passed that onto one of my friends when i built them a computer

whats a good 120hz 32 inch monitor
1440p

[normal cargo]

I went from a 290x, love that card :). But yea, my initial plan was for a 60ti, found the 70 for decent price instead. From the 30 series, the best value propositions was the 60ti and 80, everything else was either over priced or pretty meh. The 60ti n all, is one of those cards thats got the potential to be a future 1060 legend imo

What's the situation with Hardware accelerated gpu scheduling specifically in Windows 10. Worth turning on for gaming/streaming with nvenc? I know it's enabled by default in 11

[full fossil]

Seems like the articles I read give me mixed opinions

[hollow pulsar]

Oh that makes a lot more sense without that.

[full fossil]

I use edge for my browser. My main concern is performance and latency as I play on a 360hz gsync monitor in competitive titles

[manic torrent]

no, it is ABSOLUTELY a thing

scheduling was previously done by the OS

it isn't just hardware accelerated, it's scheduling.

[full fossil]

No lol you just said it could affect my browser

Trying to find out if it has any benefit to performance and latency

I've heard good things about it in W11, how it's enabled by default and is better implemented, but not sure where it's at with W10

[golden talon]

Arc is kinda based

I dont like these inconsistent framerates though

[hollow pulsar]

So apparently HAGS is NVIDIA only and related to DLSS.

[golden talon]

windows moment

[manic torrent]

uhhhhhh no

Well I'm sure it depends on the game and hardware config so I didn't know if there was an across the board consensus on whether or not I should enable it

it had a slight toxicity with versus mode

[fluid jacinth]

Ok

[polar fern]

How we all doing today?

[dreamy rose]

still wishing for better hardware, hey the X3D embargo lifts tomorrow.

[polar fern]

I have no idea what that is, but I hope it all works out for you!

[dreamy rose]

Ryzen 7000X3D

[brisk tundra]

no new video today?

[vapid smelt]

ltt stop making videos they went bankrupted

[brisk tundra]

lolz
but in seriousness, is it because of the new Ryzen 7000 X3D chips?

[dreamy rose]

thats Tomorrow not today

there should be a video today.

[brisk tundra]

I thought it is the 28th that the first Ryzen 7000 X3D chips are released

[dreamy rose]

well is it the 27th in the US?

[brisk tundra]

[vapid smelt]

[dreamy rose]

reviews go up a day before release

[vapid smelt]

did you not see the bankrupt video

[gilded quest]

[rugged bridge]

thoughts?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4syrFg

[dreamy rose]

if its Midnight then yeah i think it would be today.

[vapid smelt]

going to thermal throttle with such a low end cooler

[rugged bridge]

did this in like 5 mins, didnt put much thought into it. i just kinda picked the most expensive items haha

[dreamy rose]

what its only 9 over there?

[gilded quest]

6pm pacific at the moment

[slim creek]

wait wait wait what if I

[gilded quest]

it'll probably be midnight PT for embargo?

[slim creek]

what if I download the DLSS software and put in a game that does not support dlss???

[rugged bridge]

downwoad more wam?

[wooden dove]

Will you guys help me if i ask windows problem here

[slim creek]

download free fps

[rugged bridge]

bahaha

[dreamy rose]

download FSR for Half Life

[slim creek]

FSR looks terrible to be honest

[dreamy rose]

FSR works everywhere.

[rugged bridge]

i notice noise when using fsr

[slim creek]

yeah

some parts look overly sharpened and others overly smoothed

[rugged bridge]

but i mean when im playing competitivly i dont really notice it, but i do notice the fps lol

[slim creek]

FSR in fsr cry 6 is the worst thing to happen it makes the game look so bad

[rugged bridge]

i tried running portal RTX on my rx 6600

that ended well lol

[lament willow]

on linux what would be the best way to display an image in full screen

[dreamy rose]

i mean who cares though? you're obviously gonna have a shitter image with AI Upscaling. FSR runs on anything so its instantly a better choice for literally anybody anyway

[wooden dove]

F11?

[lament willow]

it would have to refresh every time the image changes

tryna run a r/place clone on an lcd

[dreamy rose]

Welcome to Nvidia software

[rugged bridge]

mmm yes..

[lament willow]

works by updating a .png but most image viewers wouldnt update the image
and loading the web page would be not feasible as this is a pi zero

[dreamy rose]

literally only this bad because Nvida doesnt give a shit about Radeon users. unless it comes to "Upgrading"

[vapid smelt]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TcxKrD

[rugged bridge]

yea
800x600, lowest possible settings with some stuff disabled still only got me 5 fps

[dreamy rose]

the result of Absolute 0 testing on Radeon hardware. nor actually using the AMD Technology

i just want AMD to give Portal 2 the treatment

[rugged bridge]

haha nice improvments

[dreamy rose]

it'd be better for everyone

[dreamy rose]

only one monitor? thats a bit fucking lame don't you think? you gotta have 3 in a 10K setup

may as well buy cheap ones with an Apple Stand each

[rugged bridge]

one of my friends in the class which we did this managed to total his at $100k lmao
some of the most expensive things were a 22 grand UPS, 10 grand set of headphones, and like 15 fucking monitors around $1k each

not to mention the 4 4090s lmao

[dreamy rose]

glad Crypto crashed before the 4090 was out.

not cause we have cards now. but because we still have a fucking planet to live on

[rugged bridge]

im not glad some people lost their life savings, tho im happy some scalpers and whatnot took a big hit

[graceful burrow]

Yeah eth switching to proof of stake does help with world power draw it was bad

[dreamy rose]

the people who invest into Crypto deserve it honestly.

play with fire get Burned

[rugged bridge]

yea, agree partially, but i'm also talking about people and get scammed and such

[bronze wolf]

I don’t get why people will put everything into crypto or nfts

[dreamy rose]

people love getting scammed

[wraith root]

When was the first series of rtx?

[rugged bridge]

annoying thing is we don't get taught shit about money management in school
(at least where i am)

[dreamy rose]

that or its money laundering

[dreamy rose]

RTX 2000 series, 2018

[bronze wolf]

I’ve heard stories of people who loose a ton to one nft then just buy another and loose then another til they are out of money

[wraith root]

How been nvida 1000s?

[rugged bridge]

thats just stupidity lol

[rugged bridge]

those are GTX

[dreamy rose]

GTX 1000 series are the best cards depending on who you ask. they are from 2016

[wraith root]

Nice

[dreamy rose]

no RT, just pure Rasta

[rugged bridge]

RTX is such a gimmick ngl

until its like actually fucking good
its not worth it imo

[dreamy rose]

it will never be fair game until people take the AMD Side seriously

[rugged bridge]

boycott nvidia bahah

[dreamy rose]

we just want AMD to be taken Seriously be developers. and its going that way

[rugged bridge]

the way i see it:
Nvidia is the Apple of GPUs
whereas
AMD is the Android of GPUs

[dreamy rose]

mmm. Nvidia at least lets ppl make cards

Nvidia is more like Windows and AMD is Linux. they even have the Same Approach.

[rugged bridge]

yea thats a bit better analogy

[dreamy rose]

AMD likes to be open but Nvidia, no they tightass as fuck.

[granite tinsel]

nvidia has some apple-ish behaviours tho, especially with the way they market their GPUs in press releases

...although nvidia tends to stretch truths about performance more than apple does

[stray apex]

nvidia has way more market share than apple does

apple wishes it could be the nvidia of smartphones

[granite tinsel]

apple isn't as concerned with market share because their strategy revolves more around maximizing revenue from each user

[dreamy rose]

i just hope that everyone looses marketshare to Linux honestly

Microsoft nor Apple deserve the top spot.

[polar fern]

@granite tinsel apple desktop market share was once under 1%

[dreamy rose]

Google either. but Linux Phones are a different matter

[granite tinsel]

once

[polar fern]

It’s now globally 10%

[granite tinsel]

thought it was 15%?

[dreamy rose]

5% too much

[full fossil]

im working on dual boot of arch

cuz i use arch, btw

[polar fern]

Too much?

[dreamy rose]

why build custom arch when SteamOS?

[dreamy rose]

mhm. too much

[granite tinsel]

well steamOS 3 isn't publicly available yet

you can make it work if you put in the effort but

...well then again with linux it's in for a penny in for a pound

[dreamy rose]

HoloISO

[polar fern]

In US apple desktop share is like 20%

[full fossil]

cuz i want to use linux for dev

and then switch to win when I need something from it

[dreamy rose]

SteamOS is arch. just better usability

made for the Masses

[full fossil]

what are the differences

[dreamy rose]

Valve's Official THIRD release of their Linux OS. its got steam on it and it works well.

THIRD.

[granite tinsel]

anyway the thing about mac in general anyway is that macs could take over the entire fucking desktop PC market and it would still be a drop in the bucket compared to iphone sales

[dreamy rose]

they arent PCs tho. they are Macs. but yes they could take the desktop market. but highly unlikely they would.

[granite tinsel]

you get what i mean

and yeah they're very unlikely to, because macs can't do everything

but they weren't made to do everything; they focus on a few things and do those things really well

[plush rivet]

They can, but it’s the price point
