I don't if you want to take a picture it might help
1 sec
plz
Its called a loading bar
that's what i mean the loading bar is just going
Its a desktop
And my PC doesn't support wireless update and im basically confused i never did any updates before
I turned off my antivirus some people said it could cause problems but it doesn't seem to
I can't upload pictures @ashen igloo
Holy s*** Windows XP
You're going to need a dedicated driver for that
Windows update website, and inside MSI Center "This PC does not support wireless update!"
I would just recommend backing up everything and reinstalling windows
Well first, do you even have a legit key?
and I don't know if my pc is broken
Or if its just old, because the applications won't open
some applications won't open and the update thing just keeps searching
and I don't know what a legit key is
Can't help you if you don't know what the basic nomenclature is
the reason i think its broken is because it says it had a update
that was installed, so why won't it do it anymore?
November 21th 2013
Are you trolling right now?
Nope
I checked and it says it had a update but I don't know why it stopped thats what i mean
because when I turn update on now it keeps searching and gets hot too
and its turned off again if I start from scratch
hard to upload pics here
I don't know what to do
if someone can help it would mean so much
It says Automatic recommended but it keeps going back to nothing being selected at all which is weird it shouldnt even be possible right?
The computer operating system stop being supported 10 years ago
it should always have one thing selected but every time i restart from scratch it goes back to having nothing selected, MSI Center says "Wireless update not supported!"
You can't download an update through traditional means
yeah so what can I do
Go to the Windows XP discord
can you link?
No but you can Google it
I can't
If you can't use Google, you aren't going to be able to update it
I don't really know man
if I can't update it is there anyway to make applications work?
🤔
I don't know when this started or whats wrong
Where did you even get this computer?
I built it myself 10 years ago
Assembled*
Well you weren't doing anything on it that's for damn sure
but bad things happened to me and I don't know if that was bad because the pc was in storage
and it couldn't update and tbh i don't think it has been updating ever since sitting in storage
Okay look. You can't do anything with this PC
I have used it for a couple of years
Microsoft has officially stopped supporting it
There's only a niche group of people that still use this operating system
Xp isn’t secure just fyi. Not worth it.
I just don't understand the computer not being able to update
or how to update with the usb, I think i need windows 10
You can't install Windows 10 on that computer
i don't have data on the pc so im fine that it resets
Probably the highest that you can go to is Windows 7 maybe?
I sincerely doubt it does because there are hardware requirements
Windows 7 is end of life too
Would that be my motherboard
Motherboard and cpu
MSI motherboard
XPower series
I'm not the richest person now is there anyway i can do updates without spending a lot of money then ?
Linus tech tips just did a video about how a $600 laptop is actually viable.
I spent just $600 on my CPU
can $600 give a good computer
It's going to be better than what you have right now.
but I have the graphics card in this one
In addition, if you learn how to tweak Windows, it'll perform a lot better
or is that like too old too now to even matter
Onboard graphics is going to be better than what you have
this one plays league of legends which is what i use it for
My phone can run League of Legends
Actually that's probably worth more than your computer
I put it in because i wanted to play battlefield but u know
parents cut off financial help and
i didnt use the pc so i didnt even play that
What can you afford right now? How much money do you got to spare on a new computer?
i dont know
is it better to just change motherboard and cpu and gpu again and keep the other stuff?
i dont really know anything anymore
Whatever you have right now, hold on to it. Save it for 3 months and add $150 to the pot each month. In 3 months you will have enough to buy a good entry level computer.
a potato works for league of legends
as long as you go used or weird aliexpress parts yes
i dont like buying used stuff
then go with the other option
That's not true at all. $600 is a good entry level.
if I change my motherboard and cpu and graphics card
can I turn my computer on and do a wireless update?
You will have to change out everything.
for a system with a dedicated gpu it's tough to go new normal parts
No
at least right now the low end hardware is kinda dead
The only thing that you have that's worth keeping, is probably your 780
He could get three generations ago and still be better off than what he is right now
SSDs are super cheap
Ram is cheap
I think i have a 80gb harddrive and a 500gb one
but the 500gb one isn't showing up now in my computer
You could probably trash those
okay
the ram you have definitely won't work with a new board
So what I would do if I were you, I would start piecing out a 10 series CPU and motherboard.
Its just too old?
Yes
ddr3 probably yeah
yeah
Everything you have except for the GPU can be thrown away
new stuff uses ddr4 or ddr5
I think ddr3
depending on what you go
it's not a backwards compatible standard so that ram only works on older platforms
but do I have to change the power supply and the box?
the power supply should be replaced but the case will be fine
what case is it, actually?
I mean it will be fine but come on
I mean we've already been over this and you keep on asking the same questions over and over again
if the case isn't damaged and is still a modern standard why bother replacing it
Throw out everything except for the GPU
Its Corsair but i don't know the size
don't throw it out, just clean it and you can keep using it
throwing out parts that are fine is a waste
i'm trying to make it as cheap as possible and hopefully with new parts i can support wireless update and get windows 10 through that? or do i still need to use windows 10 usb
sorry for dumb question
You just have to buy a Windows 10 key
you can just download a windows 10 iso online
Windows 10 is free to download from Microsoft's website
They came out with a tool several years ago called lol I forget
its that my pc does everything i need it to but now i cant update so i cant use it anymore and have to update
it gets more fps ingame than my friends newer pc
because of the expensive graphics i had in it 10 years ago
i have 144 hz 1080
That's what happens when you play a potato game
the gtx 780 no longer has driver support by the way
yea but its making me think i need to buy expensive again so it lasts
The 780 is still a good GPU though.
yeah i know thats why i cant get windows 10
In fact I was looking for one about a year ago for my Windows XP build
what?
"Wireless update is not supported!"
You can use a 780 in Windows 10
in msi center, and windows update keeps searching
Oh my God here we go again
the 780 works fine with windows 10 
We aren't going to help you with that
i'm just saying it doesn't support
you can't even help me with it if it doesn't support it is what im saying
i thought it wouldn't be that hard to update the pc tbh so im surprised it means i have to buy a whole new one
The only things from your current computer you can build on is the GPU and maybe the case
the cpu is watercooled, but I don't know if i should keep using that
absolutely do not
i'm surprised that decade old watercooling hardware hasn't exploded yet
That s*** is so corroded and probably has bacteria
its a
It doesn't matter what it is
xspc rasa rs240
Doesn't matter
for $600 i can get a good enough pc?
yeah
that supports windows 10
And supports Windows 11
windows 10 has existed since 2015 you're fine
you can do new just fine
But those can play the latest and greatest games
just go AMD hardware and you can get ryzen 5000
Oh yeah I forget about AMD lol
I don't ever buy AMD so they never even pump in my mind
Pop
yeah uh
with amd you can build a decent PC for $400 with a ryzen 5 5600g
that sucks if i hadn't built this pc at all i would have built it in 2017 and not 2013 and then i would have had windows 10 and not this
Well there you go
and i coudln't even use it, it was just sitting in storage
and i think i paid $2000 to build this or more
You could probably part it out and get maybe 4 to $500
but no use sadfishing
just grab this and buy a used 5700 xt on ebay for like $150
https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/ggj48d/entry-level-amd-gaming-build
actually guys it looks like the pc goes up to windows 8.1
It's EOL
but that probably isn't much better than what i have now
Stop looking for shortcuts
i know i was just trying to save money if i could do a small update like that but pretty sure i cant
TG2 just gave you the answer
Does that have 16gb memory? is that enough?
Yes
but it doesn't have a graphics?
that's what the used 5700 xt on ebay is for
You don't listen very well
im just confused
if you want a new gpu, grab a rx 6600
that's micro atx
but it doesnt matter?
For you it does not
if i change the case to micro atx
that doesn't really matter, as long as the case fits the board
yea if i put that motherboard i'll need a new case anyway
the motherboard i have now looks like its a lot taller
Oh
i'm using a msi xpower right now
i like my case acutally so i could put a new motherboard in this case?
yeah, you can
im sorry that i ask like this
but the screws that clamp the motherboard are those going to be in the same locations?
the motherbard you sent is wider and shorter
the one i have is like taller and thin
it won't matter
it won't matter
every atx case i've seen has alternate mounting holes for micro atx boards
buy that and either a rx 6600 (if you want a new card) or a rx 5700 xt on ebay if you're fine with used
can I put my old cpu in the new motherboard?
no
and then put a new gpu in
absolutely not whatsoever
they're not even the same socket
I wanna get a really good gpu that lasts a long time u know
but i don't have too much money to throw at what it costs
high end gpus are like over 1k usd right now
trust me, just go mid to low range cards right now, a rx 6600 xt or rx 6600 is fine
yeah
i was looking at gtx1050ti
$500
or Rx 6700 xt
but I don't know if i should take amd over nvidia or what
the 1050 ti is not a good card anymore; do not buy one
a 6700 xt is multiple times faster
I got my 3060ti for like 600ish
that's awful
usd
that's a really bad price for a 3060 ti
it wasnt back when i bought it
you got fucked by the scalpers?
is Ryzen better than Intel too?
Ryzen 5000 is quite good but which is "better" depends on which cpu and product
Is it possible to get a list of things that cause my pc to be unupdatable?
maybe i could upgrade in pieces so its cheaper
it doesn't work that way
i looked it up and my cpu works with windows 10
but i don't think the graphics card and motherboard does
I mean its possible. But itd be a pretty long and meaningless list
all of your stuff supports windows 10, you just have to update it manually
just put windows 10 on a usb and install it?
that guy is
wrong
Always clean install, never use windows upgrade
you're on z87, you can install windows 10 dude
I can't use windows update because im stuck on old version and it keeps searching
You cant use it because you shouldnt be using it. Clean install
So lets clerify here. Old as in win7 is installed?
When i only have windows xp pro x64
download a program called rufus and an iso for windows 10
Windows XP Professional X64
Oh your on xp wtf
my pc is 10 years old
You probably need another working pc to make a windows usb
dont have anything like that
does that work fine?
Not sure if xp even can run rufus or anything
it lets me download iso
and also would windows 10 slow my pc down a lot? because its working for what i do play league of legends and watch youtube/twitch
download the iso and flash it on a flash drive with a program to make a bootable usb
your pc will run fine as long as you have a ssd
I've already told you twice now you can't install Windows 10 on that PC
they say I can
You shouldnt have anything pre 8 connected to the internet
How? You have to have security that's built into the hardware
he is running on lga 1150, he definitely can if he just flashes the iso onto a flashdrive
i dont know
So how do i do that?
The last successful update was on November 2013 it says
and when i press search it just searches endlessly
and Msi center says wireless update is not supported
You get a working pc, use it to install windows to a usb, then clean install to new/current whatever
could i buy a windows or doesn't work like that?
i think thats how i did it the last time i can send a picture f what I have
Yes, but you still need a way to make the usb
Although im honestly suprised windows hasnt tried to add a "buy and install" to bios by now lmao.
imagine buying windows lol
but i don't think its newer than 2015 so its probably not windows 10?
It says 2002 on the disc....
ok
dude
computers from before windows 10 can run windows 10
people have ran windows 10 on a pentium 4 system before
without that much issue other than the pentium 4 being slow
Can I just buy a windows 10 disc?
and instruction sets being missing for games and stuff but that's a different issue
Hell, make your life 10x easier and just buy a win10 usb off ebay at this point. Probably wont be active but ive done it before
does that work?
is it this?
Like $15 youll get an 8gb usb with a win10 iso on it. Probably not activated, but you just need a clean iso for now
don't pay for windows 💀
Thats an official active copy. While its not encouraged on this server due to TOS, you can indeed find it cheaper
At that point your not, your paying for the 8gb usb and the shipping

I still use the usb mine came on. Better then i expected for what i paid
they still make boxes? 🤣
realistically yes, it's a more modern and demanding version of windows and you're running XP right now
but I can still play games?
Windows is heavy yes. If your on that old of a machine and are worried about it being slow, consider Kubuntu instead. But windows is better for gaming rn
you'll have way better support for games on windows 10
and be able to actually use steam
someone before literally just told me my pc can't support windows 10
they're wrong
so i wasnt sure
I heard the latest vertion of windows 11 has better support for 8k polling mice/keyboards.
But I'm not upgrading yet. 🤣
Honestly kinda trying to skip 11 in the hopes they continue the good bad cycle and we see an awesome Windows 12 before 10 goes EOL
my cpu is
Intel Core i7 4770K 3.50GHz
32.0GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 780Ti 3D graphics card
I can't imagine them killing 10 while 11 still is incompelete. 💀
Windows 11 in all honesty, isn't as bad as most people make it out to be. If you really hate windows that much, go move to Linux.
Would windows 10 be ok?
i dont know what to do none of my computer able to upgrade
Well it didn't have an audio mixers till recently.
Voicemeeter Potato 😄 Also pretty sure it had the old windows 10 one
get new motherboard, and upgrade cpu?
Ive used it in vms a handful of times and for my use case win10 is significantly more comfortable. I do use linux, but your mostly forced into windows on a main gaming/htpc rig.
No
Not really, just use a super minimal arch linux. Then GPU passthru with a good linux os that you like and 1 of those super bloated light windows iso's or do it your self with utilities cant think of the name. Worried bout anti-cheat? You can also use the vm to dual-boot but in most cases use it as a vm
Then goto linux
No
Open all of your computers, take every part out. Put a raspberry pi inside and hook up mouse n keyboard
No that is worse idea
Have fun explaining all that to every user that touches my pc. None of which know a damn thing about tech. Because i have no interest. Most people are forced to deal with windows. "Its as easy as x on linux!" Easy is also time consuming. i wanna play games when im gaming, not troubleshoot
You can use startallback or whatever its called. Which makes Windows 11 ui look similar to Windows 10, or even windows xp/7if you prefer
Why would someone else touch your pc without you being there? Also for those people, they can use Windows 11 for games or get on MacOS
You can always just have scripts, to auto startup windows 10 vm, so they won't even feel a thing
Because i have a wife who has friends and family? Linux machines outnumber windows in my home 3-1, im fully aware what i could be doing.
you share a computer?
If they're using it for just gaming, you can always just make scripts to auto start into windows 10 vm, or Dual-boot windows 11 as windows 11 still has the same gaming support no?
My main rig is connected to my tv in the living room. I game from the couch
why
why not
The method I suggested, would work, now really its the dedication of you really hating Windows 11 that much to use it. In simpler terms you can compromise with windows 11
or dont feel like buying an entire additional computer for the living room?
they aren't cheap
he said he has 3 computers
Because its more comfortable and i like having a large tv instead of restricted desk area? You can think im lazy all you want, glad its not relevant lmao
you dont need a computer for the living took

i mean, idk about you, but relaxed gaming on a large screen is very nice
xD couch gaming is fun, especially co-op
2 computers (one of which is a server) the other 2 linux being a raspi and android that i play with
i dont have a living room PC, but i do have a separate gaming setup, albeit same computer
In the future this one pc will become a rack in a closet running to multiple rooms etc etc
4k 55" is nuts even at 60fps
4k120 48" for me, but yea, similar
My monitor is 42" or 48" i forget 120hz, on my main gaming setup, so not really that big of a upgrade
If i could afford a high refresh i would have. We just wanted to treat ourselves to something newer before our aging tv finally dies
Whos waiting for the 540 hz monitor whens that releasing???
What I'd do, is to get one of those projectors you can put on your table, to get a 80"
Its one of many things on the "when i get a house" list.
I can only imagine scenarios that I can count on my finger where I would need over 144hz
Yeah it would be a cool project 😄
Also an expensive one, the cheapest ones I've seen that are good are almost $2.5k
My uncle is outgrowing the home he owns at the same rate im outgrowing my apartment, so im hoping to just slide in when he moves out within the next year or 2 haha, then the tech home begins
Lol i had a 144hz screen on my laptop 2020 but it works good. i moved to 390 hz
o.o Smart home setup??? lol
Hes already got cameras mounted in convenient spots too so itll be easier to make the runs after he takes em down
ah nice
yea, and i have 6 connected to power, more than that not built and/or plugged in, and of all of them only three can actually game decently, with one of those being my work machine, one of them in pieces in another room, and the third is my personal machine that i actually game on
raw quantity isn't always a good indicator
Wong quite be linus house but wifes gunna get tired of it quick ha
I have almost 20 computers, with 5 that are game worthy, 2 that are AAA game worthy. Im well aware quantity doesn't mean much. But of those, almost all of them can run parsec to stream to my other computers for gaming
It'll be interesting how blueprints of houses are made in few years. With smart houses in mind. Like making server racks for computers, maybe even houses, that come with smart home scripts, and servers in attics etc. etc.
yea, ima stick with local gaming, particularly when im doing 4k120 freesync
How much does Parsec let you do? Full access as if you were there or just gaming? I bounce between steam link and chrome rdp but ive been meaning to look into parsec.
high end machines aren't cheap though, and reusing one for multiple setups makes a lot of sense
Lol i got 3 computers too 2 gaming laptops and a desktop
It can do a lot, and is very fast too. You can do full access. I think if you pair parsec with steam big picture mode, it'll be a good setup
hence parsec etc. similar things
lol nice
Ngl i love this age of tech we are in where people are happy gaming on a 5-10 year old machine. Stuff like a gtx 970 will still game well enough. Couldn't say that about decade old cards when 10 or 20 series dropped.
Tbh, gtx 1060 is still game-able at medium to low settings
One has TB4 can connect to rtx 3090 egpu the laptop one and desktop can use rtx 3090 egpu desktop tb3
Sheesh i have 3080 ti, and rtx 3060's
Desktop
you stop it with reminding me how old that card is
Its okay my 1070 pushes 4k just fine. Shes gettin older but shes mine
We're in the age right now, where we have enough people who want to be able to use cheaper older hardware, as much as the latest tech. Vs before when only the richest could afford computers
RTX 3090 EGPU+3050 ti (Laptop) RTX 3090 EGPU+ 3070 ti (Desktop) RTX 2070 (Laptop)
Sheesh those are some expensive laptops
I imagine very loud ones too 🤣
Yeee they are
Lol both laptops are loud xD
yeah
I have computers, as i like space and flight simulators, so portability isnt really smt i can do
93F on my rtx 3090 RN
Sheesh
Thats part of why i annoy people to let me recycle their old hardware. I try to give out machines to familys in need specifically because of this. A $20 ddr3 machine for me could mean they get a job or start school
Oh are you using the new nvidia resolution booster I forget whats its called?
Nope, i use a 1080 p screen with 360 hz and 390 hz monitors
Yeah its insane how cheap computers you can find, that are still salvagable. I found a 970, with i5 like 2nd gen, for $50
i saw A youtube vid like 10 mins ago for that
ah I used it the minute it came out 🤣 , waited a whole month for it
eeee
You need 4k 🤣
It changes so muchc
Now just imagine if Raspi Foundation didnt have supply chain issues and still sold $10 powerhouses regularly 😭
Fps doesn't mean anything after a certain point tbh
I can do 4k120 in almost any game on my 3080
XD Ive been tryna buy one, following the raspiberrypi sniper telegram
I need a 0w2 to replace the original 0w im using in the wifes birthday present
Not yet. Seen a few on YouTube tho
i personally like raspberry pi community/support
same LTT did video recently, but all of there support or drivers, or community guides etc. are lacking
Yepp. I dont have time to learn to dev on a project id be using a pi for
Can i use 2x4pin power cable to power a gpu tht has 8pin slot?
yes absolutely
aight
🤔
lmao weird but is there a cpu cooler that works as an aquarium heater?
what?
lol
are you going to put your pc into mineral water or something
can i put the radiator inside the aquarium n have it running
yes, but don't put the fans in
like can i purchace an AIO and put the radiator inside my tank
as long as the water stays cool enough
water temp is 20 C
good
Hello.
welcome
I feel like theres a few more variables here...whats the rad made of? What kind of water will it be in? What kind of waste do the fish you choose make that could damage the rad? Whats in the rad that could damage them?
Unless no fish then i see no reason why not
😳
thats a lotta questions to which idk answers
the radiator isnt coated or anything?
Thats kinda the point. I wouldnt have answers to any of them even if you did know haha
Im sure youd just rather not wake up to a tank of dead fish
Pretty sure rads are powder coated are they not?
what if i have a filter for the rad?
Youd have to get the rad to bare metal. Youd need a sandblaster probably to get in all the fins
wait so if i put my radiator inside water(without fishes this time) ill have more performance than just normal air right?
Technically yea. Not really any different then putting the rad from an extreme chiller into an ice bath
If you keep that water cool
The reason rads work is because they spread out the water then blow on it like you would hot food
Youd need a way to push water through the rad and keep in moving in the tank
yea fans
This but mineral oil is already a thing
so wait i can use it without a cpu cooler?
what are we talking about now
dumbest ways to cool a cpu
Cheese
Ltt already did that video. Concrete
lmao u better be changing cheese every 3min rather than using ur pc lmao
Sorted, done
what about fire
that was dumber imo
using fire to cool a pc 💀
it's intertainment, like if they could cool a PC in space, by a rocket, deep in the ocean, using a catapult, they probably would.
wait so i saw this thing
its a pad like this
when electricity is passed it cools on one side and heats on the other side
I think your talking about a Peltier
the funny thing, is the heat has to go somewhere. so you ushally still end up needing a fan, and heat sink.
an aio to cool the hotter side?
but then the cooler side is so cool it goes upto -3?
Is there a channel to discuss gaming mice ?
not specifically
ig u can use keyboard channel
I get off work an hour early tonight because of DST

Or can anyone with good knowledge in gaming mice DM me pls ?
i have a $5 gaming mice if u want i can help u choose one lol
Trusty old logitech mouse and keyboards
logtech or razer?
I have a question about à specific mouse
which one
lemme see if i have knowledge abt tht mouse
In dm maybe ?
guys can we agree chinese girls > korean and japanese girls
not even commenting on that
i would never mess with overclocking
its fine it was a spare motherboard
ah thats good
new grilled cheese machine 😉
To quote LLT "DPI doesn't matter, so buy what ever mouse you like."
they don't test sensor for accuracy, drift, latancy.
they don't test button latancy.
they don't test Hz.
they don't compare weights.
they don't compare features.
So to them a razer viper 8k and a starlight are the same. Even though the starlight has 25%+ over shot and razer only 5% over shot. Or the starlight have 20% drift while the 8k has 8% dirft.
Or you know use your 10 year old mouse that has like 250 MS of latacny, while a good modern mouse willl have less then 1MS of latancy.
I don't see the point of shit high dps
My G102 can do 8k and i only use 800, sometimes 1600
Low dpi high sens feels better
how much should a 3080 second hand cost now
most mice have a DPS they perform best at. older mice that tends to be 400 DPI, some of the newer mice that's more like 1600 DPI . so ushally you want it at the optimal DPI. you can ajust sensitivty to make it feel like your old mouse.
IE 400 DPI with a multiplier of 2, is the same as 400 DPI with a multiplier of 1. (but you have to know what setting in windows is what multipler, and in game use the right math to get the right ajustments)
I just dmed you i hope you can answer me
Sometimes i drop down to 400 to get that aim right
there is literally nothing to stop you doing this
ye i just buy the mouse which is reliable and good
isn't that hard to do? I'd just change the multiplier.
there ways you can bind sensitivty to wepons. So you don't have to mess with that. But if it works for you. 👍🏻
Bind sensitivity to weapon? I guess it's a specific feature from a game?
No such thing on the game i play
I don't really play mainstream FPS like val/cod, they're sweaty
is a laptop 3060 to a pc 3080 a good upgrade
Not even a question
I personally wouldn't
i know its an upgrade but by how much performance
what do you play?
i mainly play forza
have you tried playing with a wheel? I don't do driving sims.
yeah
Mostly DCS and GTA.
For FPS games i just play on roblox.
my dad found a second hand refurbed 3080 for 400 usd
You have a dad?

is there a thread for using tech/electronics as passive income?
ive heard of people programming FPGAs for stock trading or setting up some Ai system to trade for ya.
outside of this, using a server to host websites for people, using server as online storage, and im not sure what else (idk if mining is a thing anymore)
no, and in general people who want to do this are insufferable
You would need a lot of servers for hosting websites to be actually profitable
raid is not backup, correct.
yeah i thought so, seems like real estate is probably the best bet
RAID 1 is technically backuping
Just not an offsite one
no
not. a. backup.
I do understand that you CAN use hardware electronics/computers to make up some kind of service as an income
Is your definition of a backup sending a drive to space? 
but might need a huge investment upfront. Can't really make a decent profit off of just your desktop pc.
another thing I can think of, PC cafe running off virtual machines, you'll need a pretty good fuckin server and network setup tho... =\
seems like people are making income off of youtube videos nowadays.
if you cannot restore it, it's not a backup.
If you plug in a drive, attach it as raid1, then remove it? sure, it's a backup.
everything has been done before.
RAID over USB floppies has been done.
The question doesn't really make sense
is there a vc in this discord?
no
rip
is there a point to raid
Redundancy
is there a point to redundancy
Not losing your data when a single drive faild
if your files are that important perhaps they shouldn't be on HDDs at all
is there a point to you?
why so mad
because you're a bad faith moron
so it's impossible to tell if you're asking a stupid question because you genuinely don't know, or you are trying to be clever and think you're funny, or both.
if you want to protect your files, use an SSD and have it up in a cloud storage provider as well
When you're a file hosting service
Every file is important
no wonder vc isnt enabled lmao
oh
And you can't use all SSDs for servers
well that's different, obviously if you have different people's files acting as a cloud provider
Or if you're a company hosting shit ton of important company data
You can't have it all on SSDs they're pricy
but for everyone else using an HDD for critical files is probably not the smartest idea
thats totally fair
eh, but that usage is mostly archival iirc
IDK
the point i am trying to make is that HDDs are the worst if you're trying to ensure file integrity
Enterprise HDDs are extremely reliable
id imagine they are also extremely expensive
And with RAID it's even better
very affordable compared to SSDs
Not as expensive as enterprise SSDs
Then there are data density
for me it's 210 for a 4tb hdd (enterprise)
You can fit a lot more data with the same amount of SATA Connectors with HDDs
got the s23 ultra didnt relize how heavy this phone was gunna be
so what does google use for youtube
i just did a bunch of googling and it's all quora
Google servers use HDDs
completely different person behind the desk
well that's a given
no way even google could fill all their data with ssd
it'll be such a waste
Oh and in big servers
Parallel output of bunch of HDDs is often better than SSDs
so what brand of HDD do they use
i will be purchasing exclusively whatever google buys
Probably seagate exos
kind of tempted to downgrade to a 75hz monitor from a 240hz monitor
I am being very petty, but 16:9 is so inconvenient
16:9 is ok, you just need more pixels
no no, I'm fine with 1080p, I just want a little bit more height
If someone makes a 16:10 240Hz monitor I'll buy it
I am downscaling 4k output to 1080p though
heck, it doesn't even have to be 240hz
I'll take 16:10 2.5k 120hz oled any day
bonus points if it has a usable osd and has cable management ports
4k 120hz oled is fine
Just get another monitor
16:10 28" 5K 240Hz OLED
I cannot fit another monitor
unless I stack it
but that's also weird
a single good monitor will do
I make do with 3
damn. I wish my dreams were that achievable 😄
excluding the computer, of course
I would love to upgrade to a 6700 xt and get b-die and whatnot
just get more money xP
I won't benefit much from it though. or I don't even benefit from it
Nice, I'm still 600 away
-boss katana mini guitar amp
-asus proart 16:10 display
-m-audio m-track solo
-a new surge protector and instrument cable
kind of excited
I think I'll work overtime
I just need a cpu upgrade and the quest 2
I lost the metal stabilizer thingy that's supposed to be underneath the space bar of the razer blackwidow elite, and I was wondering if anyone knows where to get a new one
(please ping me if you know something)
ebay
ah thx I'll have a look
I had to order some more parts to get the rotational part of my crane working
that sounds like a fun project
I had it 'working' with a belt, but it ultimately slipped when trying to use it.
Got an old Cordless Desktop Wave combo from 2009 sitting in my shelf and I want to use the mouse (tho I also think the KB should get a revival as well), problem is the receiver for the mouse is missing, and keyboard receiver is broken, so anyone here knows how to mod a wireless KB/ mouse into wired? Don't tell me to buy Logitech Unify because this thing is BEFORE unify even exists which means it can't be detected by that
oh no, it's slowly slowly with testing and building everything. it gets tested with no load, then more bench testing, then in place testing, then small load testing. I've been through quite a lot of iterations 🙂
I've broken a few things, but nothing major
it's non trivial. Odds are if you are asking that level of question here, it will be extremely difficult for you. You may have to replace the keyboard controller entirely.
Embeds don't work, cry
guys can i power my 130W gpu using 2xsata combined with pcie power?
it adds up to more than 130 then am i good to go?
If your psu doesn't have the connector needed for a GPU
It's for a reason
Trues tbh
Are those sata connectors daisy chained
what does that mean
On the same cable
oh wait like one connected to the another?
oh yea one cable is like tht
others are independent
I don't recommend it but I can't stop you so if it blows up its on you
No like why wont it work is my question
im not gonna do it if its not safe
oh
Just plug it in. Worst case it catches fire.
Often PSU from shady manufacturer list peak wattage not continuous
Soo the "450w" could very well mean 200w continuous
i have a doubt
if a gpu is rated for a specific wattage
it will not draw more than that?
for instance a gpu is rated 200W then will it only draw less than 200 or 200W?
my cpu is rated 65w but pulls 110w
Typically no, but often, and especially with recent cards, there are very breif moments of peak wattage sometimes doubling the rated amount.
tdp is not how much power it will draw
my 1080 is rated at 180w tdp
it's CURRENTLY pulling
linus has used his fair share of hard rs
Oh
so what is tht 130W rating for?
how much heat it outputs under normal load
text doesnt stutter
Tell that to the folks who got pissed at me for saying 2200G CPU without IGP only eats 15w
"achuawwy it eats 65w, cuz look it says TDP 65w"
good lord my 3060ti only pulls like 180ish max
10 series wasnt known for being power efficient
huh
this
Hi
👋🏻
How r u
nm 🤷🏻♂️ u?
Same
oh yah?
Lol I listened to it in work earlier, I can't remember the last time someone threw away their entire career then regained it again so quickly
what happebed
And when you enable pbo on a 5700x it will draw 120
should i upgrade from 5900x to 5800x3d?
No.
barney would never use the word
Lmao he's super innocent man
i thought hard-r meant "ryzen threadripper"
Ah, yes, the (R)acing gear on cars. 
🤔 is it normal that corsair ram wont stop glowing in energy save mode?
Whats a good ergo mouse?
Was looking at xlite v2 wireless
And logitech mx master 3s (i prefer this as the clicks are silent)
I mean

I think Steve Jobs cursed my dell lol I installed macOS on it and now it’s acting strange
It's so moist
WTF
Ah, Hackintosh. Sorry
Moist fried chicken
Bruh
Every time I booted windows it works
There is no other work to explain "moist" when it comes to food, you idiot
Oh
Juicy
I don't think the majority of us have touched hackintosh
You might wanna try #1027757333117415424
Juicy chocolate cake
american dad is amazing
Without a doubt it is
What's wrong with you? Juicy cake?
huh?
family guy and american dad one of rare cartoons that are actually funny
Oh yeah
The Simpsons tried and
Futurama
Moist fried spicy chicken & herbal chicken skewers was good. Time for cheap ice cream
yes i never liked the simpsons that much but i liked futurama
stop spamming
south park was good but they went too abstract and random
I loved all four of them
oh yes, I'm such a dick
It was okay but I didn't just enjoy it because of the animation and art style
Mind your language
LMAO
South park is amazing
did I get warshipped? no.
exactly it was a bit too over the top and not appealing to look at it
It's production quality far exceeds that's of simpsons and other cartoons
iasip is a great comedy show
please there are children watching
Simpsons is almost there
uh
Tf you talking about that looks so flat and 1D
In fact, south park is better than persona series
i watched a ton of the simpsons episodes even seasons but i could never enjoy the show
I started watching family guy at 7
Yeah you know cuz your exes are all as flat
family guy is very different now because seth is not writing jokes anymore only does voices
Mind your tongue my girlfriend is far curvier than you
Fat*
I wrote this if anyone knows what to do
