I'm amazed at how often I end up using my LTT screwdriver to fix or disassemble random shit

[graceful burrow]

I just use my ifixit kit because it has everything I'd ever need and more

[sonic juniper]

you putting together furniture with an ifixit kit?

[small zephyr]

wow i managed to get 100% gpu utilization in genshin impact with my 6650xt

it just needs an fps unlocker xD

[tired glade]

It's unity game, after all

[eager notch]

Also y'all ever meet people who seem intelligent and you would assume get basic physics like gravity and friction, but don't?

[tired glade]

Are you about theoretical physics?

[eager notch]

Nah, I mean everyday physics

[tired glade]

Oh,that,you just need to understand why law work and everything will just click

[summer folio]

Oh, you mean book smart people? They just read alot.

[eager notch]

Because my coworker doesn't and it almost made me end up with broken bones in my foot and me in the ER when he let a big board smash on my feet

[tired glade]

Oh, like that

[harsh quartz]

Ifixit kit is nice but the screwdriver is smol and isn’t a fidget toy

[eager notch]

Yep

[summer folio]

Does it have an alley wrench & a Swizz army knife which hopefully has a Philips screw driver in it??

[gilded quest]

ifixit kit is best for electronics
but isn't good for furniture, etc

[small zephyr]

a screwdriver is a screwdriver

[uncut saffron]

shitt

[foggy crest]

[molten drift]

Not exactly... Different drivers have different torque uses.

[stray apex]

simply control the torque with your hands

[fossil dirge]

I love the IFixit toolkit

I have the toolkit that I got from Amazon years ago

[harsh quartz]

“A screwdriver is a screwdriver” As I’m struggling to screw in a hex screw with a Phillips diver

[wide anvil]

idk why but forza 5 wont launch

[fossil dirge]

Which Forza?

[wide anvil]

forza horizon 5

[fossil dirge]

Oh I see

Try reinstalling the game

[wide anvil]

i did

wait hollon, checking my drivers

[fossil dirge]

Alright

[wide anvil]

still not loading

[harsh quartz]

Does it launch through steam?

[wide anvil]

i got it on microsoft store

not steam

[tender glade]

Do you not know how investing works?

[strange elk]

Holy shit

[tender glade]

Oh

Yeah

[strange elk]

Now im kicking myself because thats one I wasnt really even looking at.

Thats insane

[tender glade]

Here are my gains

Lmao

[strange elk]

Thats fucking epic

Cant afford to buy rn sadge.

[tender glade]

Well yeah now it’s high

Wait till nvidia splits

They will def do a 4-1 if the price stays as is

[strange elk]

We know why this happened?

[tender glade]

Ai

They own 80% of the gpu market

[strange elk]

true.

shit

[harsh quartz]

Man, I thought about putting money in Nvidia like 2 months ago, but I went “nah, they’re super high, they’ll probably flop their next launch and I can buy when they go down” I’m currently biting myself

[tender glade]

Openai uses nvidia

[strange elk]

I had the same thought, this release cycle has not gone well

[harsh quartz]

I did put some money into apple and they’ve gone up by like 20% since then so I made a pretty penny off of that today

[harsh quartz]

No, it hasn’t, but they’re somehow through the fuckin roof right now

[strange elk]

I havent really gained much since I started.. on the 5th

Which is fair. I dont have a lot put in yet lmaO

[fossil frost]

AMD are slowly returning to profitability for me, i should really have put my money in nvidia at the time, but amd had a sharp upward trajectory, so, fuck it... and then they dropped off a cliff... tbh, its the curse of me investing in someone, whenever i have, the following day, their stock falls off a cliff

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, I’ve only got about $500 in in total myself atm, it’s enough to see fair returns, but not major ones

[tender glade]

AMD is just cursed in terms of gains

[harsh quartz]

Amd is still doin better than intel

[tender glade]

I actually sold my amd a while while back

[strange elk]

I wish I invested in amd is what I keep coming back to

[tender glade]

Cause it’s isn’t growing enough to split but it’s a good long term

If you had infested during fx era you would be golden rn but post initial zen release is a tough buy

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, but that’s any succeeding company

[fossil dirge]

Google Chrome

[fossil frost]

i bought shares in cineworld as a penny share stock, thinking that any increase in something worth 1.2p/share, would be worth putting £100 in to, just to see how it would go, cineworld is now worth about 0.009p/share

[strange elk]

Ow

[harsh quartz]

Win some lose some

That’s why you only do it with what you can afford to lose :p

[fossil frost]

i treat stocks like gambling, if i cant afford to flush that money down the toilet, it doesnt get used

[harsh quartz]

You say that as if it ISNT gambling

[fossil frost]

and by "treat it like gambling" i mean "it is gambling"

[harsh quartz]

It’s just… educated… gambling

[strange elk]

me who treats it as savings

[tender glade]

It isn’t gambling

[harsh quartz]

No, bad

[strange elk]

[tender glade]

I know nvidia is a profitable company and wouldn’t do stupid stuff, same with apple

[strange elk]

how stupid we talking

[tender glade]

Id say buying short term gains is gambling

[harsh quartz]

Yes, but you rarely see such huge gains with those companies as what you had with nvidia

[tender glade]

Stupid like letting Elon musk

[vapid smelt]

the did stupid stuff with the rtx 4060ti and gtx 1630 though

[tender glade]

This is post split for nvidia

[fossil frost]

this is how far my curse runs.. i invested about £500 in HSBC, about 3 days before it came out that they were not only complicit, but actively partook in money laundering schemes for organised crime gangs..

[tender glade]

So they’ve already quadrupled their shares

In 2021

[harsh quartz]

I’ve got a few companies that I’ve got long term in but apple was a fun short term gain

[tender glade]

Apple is not good for short term

[fossil frost]

when you buy shares in a global bank, you assume those are pretty safe, then you see in the news that their stock prices have fell through the floor because they are ran by criminals 😄

[tender glade]

Apple is a hold till you die type of thing

Since Apple is basically a rock, it won’t drop so it’s a safe investment

Stuff like GME, rivian is like a short term type thing

[strange elk]

Oh banks are a terrible investment afaik which isnt much

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, but you can also make some money in between the peaks and valleys, because there WILL be peaks and valleys

[fossil frost]

but wont give you huge gains year on year, but, will make you 10x your initial investment over 20 years

[harsh quartz]

Rivian is not a good short or long term investment atm

[tender glade]

Nope because I lost 100 bucks in it xD

[strange elk]

Rivian looked so promising, what even happened

[harsh quartz]

They just can’t compete with established automotive manufacturers in the EV market

[tender glade]

That and their market is already niche

People can’t afford Evs yet

[fossil frost]

my biggest mistake was not selling my roblox stock. it went up by about 200% in its first month... then all the bad stuff came out about them, and now its 50% of its ipo

[harsh quartz]

Maybe eventually when they get more vehicles out but ATM they’re already competing with ford for the towing marking and BMW for the luxury market

[tender glade]

Tesla is stupid and won’t cash in on a cheap Tesla

[strange elk]

Roblox has always been all bad stuff..

[tender glade]

So your stuck with the Chevy bolt

Volt

[harsh quartz]

I am holding a fair bit in ford though, I think they’ll be going up soon

Plus it’s cheap

[tender glade]

Ew

[strange elk]

Man I must be out of the loop because ford?

[harsh quartz]

Fords is in a downhill right now cause they’re building factories and spending a lot, once the factories get build their production is gonna skyrocket and their spending will go back down

At least that’s my unprofessional take on it

[dreamy rose]

way back when the bad stuff was rather fewent. but now its too common.

[strange elk]

Ah im doing something similar wih CCK, they are going to do canning for liquid death

[strange elk]

Ive seen a lot of stories before they even went on the market about their exploitative practices, so even if they were a good buy by the time i started I wouldnt have bought in

[harsh quartz]

They were bad 8-10 years ago but not anywhere like today, and it wasn’t reported on nearly as much

[dreamy rose]

i mean i spent a whole 4 years on that game and had a grand time just grew out of it. the shitty things they do just adds to it. and then they recently outright disrespected both Proton and Linux.

[strange elk]

oh?

a based statement from bionic?

[dreamy rose]

roblox decided they needed their own anticheat

[strange elk]

That makes sense in its own right

[dreamy rose]

i only speak based. based on fact.

[strange elk]

nope, not gonna say it

I think for a game like Roblox its a net positive tbh.

VRChat was the egregious one. Master chief collection kinda as well just because of the campaign being bundled into it.

Oh and TotK

[dreamy rose]

VR Chat is infinitely worse.

[strange elk]

Fuck Nintendo and Denuvo

[harsh quartz]

How is Nintendo at fault here

[strange elk]

They are adding extra DRM to their games now, making it harder for people to dump the roms for emulation and archival since nintendo wont make a better console, nor will they release their old games so people CAN legally buy them

[harsh quartz]

As if that’ll stop people

[strange elk]

Ofc

[sage pagoda]

I did something funny

[dreamy rose]

they had a REALLY good platform, they left all the community's models and maps unsecured in VRAM, they let people run around crashing their games, they bogged down performance with spaghetti code, they take forever to release updates, they add ANTICHEAT to "Fix the problems" but they still happen. all anticheat removed was mods people used to improve the game cause the devs wouldnt and the mods that Disabled users use to play the fuckin thing.

[strange elk]

Hence why I moved to Neos

[dreamy rose]

Chillout VR is the one worth moving to.

[strange elk]

I dont like it as much

[dreamy rose]

why not? is it too small?

[harsh quartz]

Club penguin is the only good one

[strange elk]

I like the community of intellectuals I can surround myself by rather than screaming children

Also I can just.. do more

[sage pagoda]

I took a picture of my stuffed animal collection and listed it on Openseas for 9 dollars. Sure it's stupid, might not get anything out of it, but hell, why not have some fun. I'd hate to be the poor fool who buys a jpeg of some plush animals.

[dreamy rose]

Chillout VR for sure doesnt have those.

[dreamy rose]

its better than loosing you money on a tweet screencap.

[sage pagoda]

True. Plus I might start selling my photography as nfts. Better than those monkey pictures

At least there's thought behind the nature pics

[strange elk]

Its got a fantastic UIX system, object and texture editing in game, LOADS of toys and tools to make things easier and more fun, the almighty stick based FBT, easy facial tracker setup, mute helper TTS system... all very nice

And I dont feel like im in just another VRC, which honestly just felt like an abusive relationship

Also you develop worlds in game which is SO much easier for me

[dreamy rose]

well yeah CVR isn't as big, they had released in 2021. and they probably only have like 4 ppl at the company working on the game,

[strange elk]

Neos is just as small if not smaller

[dreamy rose]

CVR is that VRC relationship that's not Abusive.

[strange elk]

Yeah but im still with a VRC clone essentially

Bad energy

[meager furnace]

Am I tripping or did they remove the bmw test?
https://www.blender.org/download/demo-files/

[dreamy rose]

well no. its better and it has its own differences. and the CEO and even community would get really mad at you. the CEO because they see it as just a VR Sandbox and that's what they wanna call it.

[strange elk]

Neos really lives on because of its community, they havent had updates in over a year because of legal issues going on between the CEO and COO, but yet new things are made every day because of the nature of the game, things are improved even with the UI itself because thats JUST how modular it is

[icy robin]

frick

[dreamy rose]

how is performance? can you get 2X the frames as VR Chat in an Empty world?

[strange elk]

Honestly depends on whats loaded, because it can be VERY unoptimized. But Im willing to have that tradeoff

It runs well enough for me not to care

[dreamy rose]

well in every map some guy tested CVR got >600 while VR Chat was suck at >300.

[strange elk]

Well good for them

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[dreamy rose]

hell VRC has a 90FPS cap and the video was recorded like that.

[strange elk]

Im not going where I dont have my mute helper and mostly convenient UI tbh. Just not my cup of tea

plus fake fbt you can manipulate in game with your actual physical hands.. thats a pretty huge benefit I have even when not accounting for the other in game devwork that can be done. Someones even made a guitar hero clone in Neos

[onyx heath]

isnt that browser a ram eater?

[strange elk]

its the best for most users across both platforms

Best youll get tbh, as far as best for YOU, youll have to compare browsers yourself.

[harsh quartz]

It eats ram and cookies, lot and lots of cookies

[strange elk]

Firefox is generally the next option

[harsh quartz]

Duck duck go and opera have both been rising in popularity recently

[onyx heath]

i thought google wanted to stop cookies being a thing?

[harsh quartz]

Doesn’t mean they don’t use them

[strange elk]

Didnt know DDG was a browser and havent they done something a bit shady lately?

[harsh quartz]

I mean, probably, what company hasn’t?

[strange elk]

If you want something light but doesnt have all the features that most modern browsers do i managed to get Netflix working with a bit of work theres Palemoon

[fossil frost]

why not just use the FOSS of chromium? rather than using the google derived one

[dreamy rose]

Brave is just chromium with a built in adblock anyway

[vapid zephyr]

Who didn't

[dreamy rose]

i didn't because i don't care about Duck Duck Go. and weren't they caught taking user data or something a while ago?

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, all the browsers are taking users data, that’s what cookies are, that’s how the browsers stay free

[stray apex]

that's not what cookies are

[gilded quest]

these are cookies 🍪 🍪 🍪

Idk what that thing is for

Maybe parents can get it for kids if one wants to watch TV and the other wants to play playstation?
Is it for playing PS5 in bed if the console is at a desk/living room?

[dreamy rose]

they already have that product its called the PS fuckin Vita,

it even has its own games as a bonus

[strange elk]

Me who has a 3D printer

[harsh quartz]

You gonna play ps games and watch tv on your 3d printer?

[strange elk]

Idk if I want to make a phone mount tho. Id make it better at least be putting the screen directly over the controller. Better center of gravity

[karmic whale]

hey if amazon sends me a 7700x instead of the 7600x i ordered what do i do

[strange elk]

Say nothing

[dreamy rose]

if its brand new keep it

[harsh quartz]

Consider yourself lucky

[real schooner]

Do a little dance

[dreamy rose]

if it was open box and is broken then say something

[harsh quartz]

Or return it and get a 5800x3d instead

[dreamy rose]

why do that?

[harsh quartz]

Idk, just saying you could

[strange elk]

I got a worse model cpu and got credited since it was basically the same thing, Athlon 220ge vs 240ge

[dreamy rose]

nope. not yet at least

[manic torrent]

It's not unheard of. I might have, but it's lost to the sands of time. shit happens, occasionally you benefit from it.

[karmic whale]

amazon once refunded me my logitech g pro but they told me to keep it

[dreamy rose]

sometimes its not worth shipping it back if you want a refund.

[karmic whale]

yea shipping to and from my area kinda whack

[wispy marsh]

https://www.pcgamer.com/just-one-person-showed-up-to-buy-an-rtx-4060-ti-for-its-late-night-akihabara-launch/

[manic torrent]

it's not so much the shipping as it is the processing and risk. It's cheaper to write it off than it is to process it.

[dreamy rose]

yeah. its DOA.

if the 7600 is DOA than that thing is double DOA

[molten drift]

Not from Amazon but from other stores earlier in my life yes

Also the amount of times my car dealership had me having to confirm how many miles are on my car got annoying today.

[manic torrent]

no, it's that people who buy midrange video cards don't buy them at midnight, they just... buy them. normally.

[molten drift]

My car has literally less than 8k miles on it since 8/1/21

[dreamy rose]

ok but the 7600 is a better option though.

[manic torrent]

I don't actually care - this isn't a statement about the quality or value for money or comparative 'goodness' or whatever.

[thorny axle]

You say that about literally every AMD offering vs other companies

You probably believe the 7950XTX is competitive to the 4090

[dreamy rose]

its literally 130 dollars less than a 4060Ti.

[molten drift]

Know what's a better offering than a 7600. .

Several boxes of slim jims.

[manic torrent]

our sponsor

[molten drift]

Slim jim sponsoring ltt when.

[dreamy rose]

yes the 6700XT is the best option anyway. but if you have to buy this gen the 4060s are pointless.

[vapid smelt]

damn they are flying off the shelves

[molten drift]

No ... Slimjims.

[dreamy rose]

they are legally required to say "EAT ME!"

[manic torrent]

what if instead of doing that you just bought a shitload of booze and got a shitty motel room and drank yourself into a coma

[dreamy rose]

that doesn't last.

[manic torrent]

it does if you asphyxiate on your own vomit

[wispy marsh]

4060Ti drones

Okay that was a funny thought

[vapid smelt]

difficult choice 7600 or spend $10 more for a rx 6700 10gb

[harsh quartz]

What I don’t understand is why nvidias stock is so high when the launches are going so poorly

[manic torrent]

because the consumer side has absolutely nothing to do with it

[dreamy rose]

free game with the 7600 tho

[harsh quartz]

Yeah Ik but it’s baffling

[graceful burrow]

Here, too

[harsh quartz]

That’s aggro? That’s just a question

[wary summit]

oh yall are here, 12500H or 6600H?

[manic torrent]

it's actually because when presented with facts, you chose to agressively question them. You asked a question and were being answered, and you got all fighty

[dreamy rose]

6600H

[harsh quartz]

Again, that’s just a question

[wary summit]

was thinking the same

[wispy marsh]

They definitely do not

[graceful burrow]

It is
A very aggressive one

for $500 bucks you get a 12500H or a 6600H dang

your implication with the question was that the information presented to you was somehow wrong.

you were not asking ABOUT the data, you were questioning it's validity.

No, it was, “wow, that’s fuckin wild, how in the world does that fit into a completely unrelated industry”

[wary summit]

yea, well botha re $500 bucks

Your paraphrasing out of context and making me out to be to be the dumbest of all dumb fucks to ever exist, I was just trying to have a conversation about it but I guess I should just never fuckin do that again

fired? what for? using bob instead of your real name?

[manic torrent]

Depression/ADHD/Ennui

[manic torrent]

your CPU and/or motherboard are fried.

[vapid smelt]

now you wont be able to afford to upgrade your pc this year

[wary summit]

Should i get the 7600

[manic torrent]

hopefully I can get a new job quickly so that won't be a problem. Also I've already upgraded it this year 😄

[dreamy rose]

if you cant get the 6700 yes.

[vapid smelt]

but we all know you need to upgrade more then once a year

[manic torrent]

I mean, you're not wrong. although I'm working on levelling up my AV setup. I have now run the streamdeck off my server and I'm using a home assistant stream deck program.

My asynchronous event driven midi interface program "Surface Presser" is well on the way

[wary summit]

i have the 6600 ;-;

[karmic flame]

https://tenor.com/view/bill-murray-what-about-bob-bob-what-about-gif-10883316

[wraith sonnet]

it's a good card

[vapid smelt]

save up more not that worth of a upgrade to a 7600

[dreamy rose]

then go for the 6800.

[wary summit]

Yes, but its- slow, but for what i do-

i literally play csgo ad valorant, the occasional BeamNG

and then Minecraft with RT, it don't work wewll

[fallen cedar]

csgo better be played at some cursed 4:3 resolution, stretched

[dreamy rose]

well yeah RDNA 3 is gonna be better for RT

[wary summit]

i don't play it anymore

[wary summit]

Its played on Faceit, 1:1 Streched

[fallen cedar]

hell ye

[wary summit]

144fps

[fallen cedar]

hz I assume, 144fps is not that much for csgo 😄

[agile comet]

This server have a modmail?

Brutal

[manic torrent]

If you want to talk to mods, the best option is to shout into the void.

[agile comet]

Real?

[fallen cedar]

thats what I do already

[manic torrent]

Will probably achieve the same outcome, not waste their time, and you might feel a little better.

[agile comet]

Merrr

[tepid bolt]

Csgo and valorant are CPU bound games.

BeamNG runs bad on AMD and Intel GPUs

And well yeah the 6600 sucks at raytracing

[graceful burrow]

Same reason I got fired from my last job I feel ya

[strange elk]

please dont

[manic torrent]

😮

[strange elk]

[vapid smelt]

wait the void can type?

[strange elk]

the Void can do whatever it wants

Because the Void doesnt care what you think, like bees.

[dreamy rose]

Fuck Bees

[strange elk]

It IS hip

[wary summit]

so, i should OC my 5600X

[dreamy rose]

absolutely

[strange elk]

what lmao

[uncut spire]

i want to kms mico center is selling a rx 6700 for 270 and i got a 3050 for 250

[strange elk]

Are your drivers up to date

[vapid smelt]

why did you buy the 3050 over the rx 6600?

[strange elk]

Why did you buy the 3050

[wispy marsh]

Read the return/refund policy and ask if they could do it if you're still within the return window

[uncut spire]

ik but i dont have the box

[dreamy rose]

why?

[uncut spire]

my dad tossed it

[wispy marsh]

I usually keep the box for the first two months because I used to be a retailer who tells everyone "We do a 1-to-1 exchange no questions asked if your product fails".

[random sapphire]

Yo i wanna list my old pc to sell it
What is best way to make it so someone cant get any data back from ssd and hdd on it
?

[stray apex]

it's also way easier to resell the gpu if you keep the box

[wispy marsh]

Well, get your dad to buy you a 6700XT

[uncut spire]

i was going to keep it but i forgot to put it somewhere

[wary summit]

DBAN

[dreamy rose]

putting in a new SSD

[stray apex]

replace the SSD and HDD

[strange elk]

Just dont give them the box if they lose theirs kekw

[wispy marsh]

DBAN is the correct answer

[random sapphire]

Not option
@stray apex same answer

[wary summit]

DBAN if your selling the ssd with the pc, replace if you have the money

[wispy marsh]

If you want to keep the storage, just replace it with a new drive

[wary summit]

use DBAN, then try recover it yourself with recuvva

[errant current]

dont buy amd guys im suffering with my rx6800xt, gonna replace it and sell the new unit

[stray apex]

apparently dban doesn't erase SSDs?

[dreamy rose]

Riight.

[wary summit]

??

[stray apex]

you can probably just encrypt the drives and reinstall windows though

[manic torrent]

run the ssd erase function in the bios.

[wispy marsh]

I'm having a blast with the 6800XT. What kind of problems are you getting?

[strange elk]

Im on a 6700 but fantastic performance

[inland parrot]

Anyone got the new Adrenaline update? I'm on the 7900xt is it good?

[wary summit]

bet you @errant current didn't install drivers

[errant current]

core clock doesnt go up, mostly its 0-10mhz on idle and even in games the max it would go is a few hundreds

[wary summit]

or his PSU is underwatt

[dreamy rose]

majority of people have few reasons to actually buy nvidia anymore.

[strange elk]

Those DAMN drivers man

[wispy marsh]

The May 2023 preview enabled HAGS on my GPU and it feels fantastic. Windows feels snappy again.

[wispy marsh]

Which game is that? Are you plugged into the iGPU?

[stray apex]

I can feel the heat coming off my 3080
so I bought a 4070 to undervolt

[errant current]

bro no one is that dumb, i tried everything from reinstalling, clean reinstall, minimal install, driver only, changing my psu, everything

[dreamy rose]

RT is pointless

[strange elk]

dude gets a 3090, pc projectile shits itself

[errant current]

i dont have igpu

[wary summit]

whats your temps

[strange elk]

RT is fun. I dont care about reflections as much as lighting though

[wispy marsh]

Okay, which game is that?

[errant current]

temps r normal, 60-70 at max while gaming

[wary summit]

RT, is not really nessercary, just turn replection detailss up

[wary summit]

are you on Silent mode

[strange elk]

Lighting tho

[dreamy rose]

RT is that shitty middle point between Realistic and okay.

[stray apex]

RT is still better though
and it should be easier to implement

[wary summit]

yes, but at 1080p, its not even nessercary

[stray apex]

once hardware catches up, people will probably stop bothering to implement rasterized lighting

[strange elk]

That was Xbox One

[errant current]

all games, core clock just doesnt go up, cant change it thru software cuz the changes dont take effect no matter how many times u try it

[errant current]

bro what do u think im on ?

[dreamy rose]

no thats RT. look at RT vs PT and you'll see

[wispy marsh]

That's weird. My TUF6800XT draws 300w and does 2.3ghz in cp2077

[wary summit]

cyberpunk 2077!?

[dreamy rose]

rt is hella over hyped PT is what ppl need to be excited for.

[wispy marsh]

What is your pcie link speed inside your bios?

[strange elk]

Reddit: "Respiratory Therapist or Physical Therapist Assistant?"

[rough birch]

What is any of this

[stray apex]

they're talking about raytracing vs pathtracing, which I'm pretty sure use the same accelerators so
they're just being pedantic

[strange elk]

lmao nice

[dreamy rose]

Path does way more than Ray.

[strange elk]

So not a Vulkan vs DX thing

[rough birch]

Oh.

[strange elk]

Bro you need to open your mind. You are way too closed minded tbh

[errant current]

yeah mine doesnt draw power too, somehow my core clock started going up since yesterday after i tried to set the minimum clock to 2344mhz, now its draws power too but still not performing as it should, power draw is still low, core clock drops while gaming, and the performance im getting needs me to set priority to high in task manager everytime i load up a game

[dreamy rose]

i'm sorry but Ray is boring when Path looks leagues better.

[hollow pulsar]

To be fair, Lightwave 3D and as far as I can every other professional 3D package calls it ray tracing with multiple bounces

[oak kindle]

only 2.3??

[hollow pulsar]

Path tracing appears to be some recently made up term?

[oak kindle]

are you running stock?

[dreamy rose]

Path is Ray on crack. turned up to 11 so to speak.

[hollow pulsar]

How so?

[strange elk]

Path tracing is literally ray tracing with reflections.

[wispy marsh]

Are you using one cable for both of the pcie power slots?

[stray apex]

https://www.techspot.com/article/2485-path-tracing-vs-ray-tracing/#:~:text=The short and sweet answer to this question,use the same units to accelerate the process.

[strange elk]

Its not really any different

[wispy marsh]

/shrug Yes, but it's drawing 300w so

[dreamy rose]

Cyberpunk RT overdrive. looks way better.

[rough birch]

Hold up. Doesn't ray tracing do reflections already though?

[errant current]

2 different pcie cables

[oak kindle]

oc then 🥱

[stray apex]

yeah, they're extremely similar

[wispy marsh]

I would eventually, but not for now. Preview drivers are pretty good and I wanna monitor them for a week or so.

[wispy marsh]

Alright. This is generally highly not recommended, but you might want to install preview GPU drivers. AMD has also released an updated chipset driver this week.

[strange elk]

Path tracing seems to be more optimized from what this article says if I understand correctly?

[oak kindle]

in theory yeah

[strange elk]

But yeah otherwise not much different. Maybe a bit clearer

[rough birch]

Basically just taking a drill to a pickaxe???

[wispy marsh]

I'd be more cautious about this week's chipset drivers seeing as many people on reddit has complaints with it, but you could also download the previous version's drivers

[errant current]

i dont know anything about preview drivers, can u tell me a little about it ?

[oak kindle]

i can help when u do if youd like

[oak kindle]

theres 0 point ever downloading chipset drivers unless required for something imo

[wispy marsh]

https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/amd-radeon-software-preview-drivers-dch-uwp.437511/

Follow what the first post says

[dreamy rose]

the difference between RT and PT is basically that PT can shove in way more light and get much better shadows and reflections and so. its RT on crack.

[strange elk]

Yeah PT just looks like a different way to handle RT, bout it.

[oak kindle]

wdym shove in way more light

[oak kindle]

i mean yeah cuz RT is very broad, PT is just an advanced version of it

[vapid smelt]

average AMD L

[wispy marsh]

I'll be fine with the OC. I usually wait two months to update chipset drivers, there's this little bug with my X570 that tanks my overall windows and gaming performance on a cold boot, if I don't set my SN570 to pcie2 speeds.

[oak kindle]

???

[vapid smelt]

shouldve goten a intel arc gpu

[oak kindle]

are you familiar with MPT?

[dreamy rose]

path tracing is able to act more like the sun. throwing out a lot more light paths than RT

[wispy marsh]

I'm not using it.

[oak kindle]

why not

[wispy marsh]

It's installed, but I'm not going to use it for now.

Because both of us have to agree to disagree

[oak kindle]

disagree on what

[wispy marsh]

I'd like to monitor my stuff for a good while before I try any OC on it

Particularly driver updates

[oak kindle]

what

driver updates on AMD GPUs are generally very worth it in every aspect

[errant current]

@wispy marsh link is for 6700xt drivers

[oak kindle]

idk how you can disagree with that

[wispy marsh]

Sigh

[dreamy rose]

the drivers are all the same silly

[errant current]

oh ok

[oak kindle]

🤔

[errant current]

can u show me ur tuning profile ?

[dreamy rose]

new drivers support every card that's still being, supported. by the creator.

[wispy marsh]

I keep two to three copies of drivers. AMD drivers for my gpu has been pretty good lately, but some drivers were a miss during the past year

[oak kindle]

which? Generally, every single game I play has had improvements and 0 regressions in perf with no issues or bugs introduced

[wispy marsh]

Have you heard of the phrase "Your mileage may vary"?

[oak kindle]

yeah, im curious what issues youve had

[wispy marsh]

Some drivers giving artefacts while OCing, but that has smoothed out half a year ago or so

[oak kindle]

howd you go about testing that?

[wispy marsh]

cyberpunk 2077

[dreamy rose]

overclocking and playing games?

[oak kindle]

running the exact same oc and settings and such between two different drivers?

[dreamy rose]

yeah. thats how you test it.

[wispy marsh]

I don't recall that much. I've learned to just test it and if it doesn't work, roll back and let it go.

Very good mindset for software deployment

[dreamy rose]

there was that Radeon ocing tool linus covered a year ago.

yeah wonder where thats gone.

[oak kindle]

looks like sif didnt

[oak kindle]

MoreClockTool?

[wispy marsh]

My configurations for OC usually don't change much

Once I've set it up initially, it'll just be stable for however long i use the device

[dreamy rose]

think it was called hydra or something

[wispy marsh]

IIRC hydra was quite a bit like PBO but for GPUs

[oak kindle]

how do you usually go about testing for stability on your GPU?

[wispy marsh]

I don't

[vapid smelt]

https://tenor.com/view/captain-america-avengers-avengers-endgame-hail-hydra-gif-14699413

[wispy marsh]

It's just a graphics card

[dreamy rose]

and its made by a guy in Russia. and all that's probably why its not out for non patreons yet. they likely have a ready to go version but are stuck not releasing it.

their patreon has been posting so thats good

[oak kindle]

even when you OC?

[wispy marsh]

The game tests it for me

[oak kindle]

LOL

[wispy marsh]

Just let it go

[oak kindle]

do you at least test lows in games?

[wispy marsh]

My eyes test it for me

I'm old, and i can reliably not tell 80% of the differences between 144hz and 240hz

I've just learned to accept it, sometimes there are just driver things that drivers do

But the may preview drivers have been great

[manic torrent]

oh shit FONV is free

[tepid bolt]

Who doesn't have it already though lol

[graceful burrow]

Where I gotta own it on every platform

[manic torrent]

epic games store, and yeah I have it on steam, but .. FREE

[graceful burrow]

FREE SHIT

[manic torrent]

also includes all the addons

[tepid bolt]

Nintendo switch?

[wind pulsar]

I don't and I don't plan on getting it

[graceful burrow]

It doesn't exist there :(

[graceful burrow]

Too busy playing final fantasy model simulator

[tepid bolt]

Skyrim for switch but no NV what a blasphemy

[wind pulsar]

That too but I just don't dig it

[tepid bolt]

You can mod big busty women into it

Does that change your mind

[manic torrent]

I build a web interface that allows you to select from a series of automated checks and actions, run them, provide the username and password and 2FA for the client site, then it performs that work, livestreaming it to the interface, with logs showing where it's at, while also saving the visuals as a video, and doing analysis on the data and generating a report.

[wind pulsar]

No lol

[near nymph]

Today I learned... Ethanol attracts moisture in gasoline... And the Jerry can of gasoline I got will go bad soon lmfao

[manic torrent]

FONV is the best rpg of all time

[graceful burrow]

Today I went to work and got a headache

[tepid bolt]

Eh I liked FO3 more

[manic torrent]

it depends on .. a lot

[wind pulsar]

I've made this version of the screenshot by accident lol

This was originally mostly transparent since I forgot to disable the automatic chromakey in my shader software.. So I added a black background to it and this came to exist.

I genuinely liked it, so I kept it

[near nymph]

Also I leaned... Ya supposed to change the oil on a lawnmower even when they say not to lmfao

[wind pulsar]

(I made a screenshot where I needed to key my character out, that's why I had it on in the first place)

[jaunty pivot]

LTT's new video has me convinced, I constantly get ads and linked in emails to work at ASML, actually crying in the club

(i dont have the qualifications to work there

[manic torrent]

I mean if it's a four stroke... yeah.

[near nymph]

It's a 2 stroke. Mhmm...

[manic torrent]

get some

[manic torrent]

2 stroke has oil mixed with the fuel, it doesn't have a seperate oiling system

[jaunty pivot]

no u

[wispy marsh]

Cat

[wind pulsar]

[near nymph]

Wait... So am I not supposed to change the oil?

Some places say change it every season or... 50hrs of run time. Other people are like... Don't

[manic torrent]

If it has a seperate oil reservoir it will be injecting it as you use it, and will just... use it up.

[near nymph]

Oh...

So it does need more oil... I guess I'll go buy some

[manic torrent]

I assume you put just regular gas in the gas tank, and 2 stroke oil in the oil hole?

[near nymph]

It says to use 10w-30

[azure falcon]

Tomorrow should be fun got a job interview

[uncut spire]

can the Gigabyte B650M DS3H only run are ddr5

[vapid smelt]

ryzen 7000 is ddr5 only

[manic torrent]

then you have a four stroke mower.

what is your mower model.

[near nymph]

Ow...? Tf I thought it was a 2 stroke

[wispy marsh]

Will PC2 come as 64-bit only?

Thinking about getting a new spark plug. It keeps shitting the bed when I mow

[manic torrent]

it's an OHV engine - it's a 4 stroke.

[near nymph]

Fuck... I guess I need to change the oil...

Wtf is the use of using a 4 stroke engine in a lawnmower...

[dreamy rose]

computex in 4-5 days.

[manic torrent]

emissions, noise, powerband, smell, etc etc

[gilded quest]

[dreamy rose]

wonder what kinda things we are gonna see. maybe a 7800 or a 4090Ti?

[gilded quest]

probably a boat load of partner 4060 cards

maybe some partner RX 7600 cards

idk if amd would do a 7800 right now

afaik the 7800 die exists for Radeon Pro cards, so maybe it will show up

[dreamy rose]

i'm up for seeing better radeon laptop GPUs now. maybe more laptops with em in general.

[gilded quest]

idk if amd really cares for laptop gpus

seems like they might be more interested in improving their apus and having those replace low end dGPU laptops

[dreamy rose]

they've been aiming to take on laptops recently so maybe.

[gilded quest]

with the Phoenix/Z1 APUs?

[vapid smelt]

sometimes you need a 209cc 4 stroke lawnmower

[dreamy rose]

and good choice cause thats the place to be

[gilded quest]

what if they stuck like 24CU in an soc

[dreamy rose]

Strix and Strix Halo coming soon are proof enough.

[dreamy rose]

i mean strix halo is supposed to be 40

[gilded quest]

in a soc?

i don't really watch the rumor mill these days

[dreamy rose]

16c/32t, 40CU max 120w tdp,

[gilded quest]

is strix halo an asus laptop?

[dreamy rose]

yep. thats right.

[gilded quest]

sounds like an attempt to take on M1 Ultra

[vapid smelt]

asus bad

[dreamy rose]

Zen 5 Monster APU.

[gilded quest]

eh, don't think we're getting zen 5 at computex

[vapid smelt]

apple apu is way better

[gilded quest]

maybe desktop Zen 4 apus tho

[dreamy rose]

aboslutely an apple competitior.

[dreamy rose]

hopefully we get them.

[gilded quest]

even if they aren't shipping yet i'd like to see them at computex

[dreamy rose]

fuck the 1650. we need better for cheaper

[graceful burrow]

6600

[dreamy rose]

and preferably it being red.

[graceful burrow]

6600

[vapid smelt]

apples m1 was able to match the laptop rtx 3060 in tombraider

[dreamy rose]

as in the whole PC being cheap. which an iGPU that good can do.

[gilded quest]

please don't fuck a gpu

[hollow pulsar]

That’s pretty dang good

[dreamy rose]

as long as they move on from 12 to 16 CUs in future chips then that dream is there.

[heady briar]

the radeon 680m in the 7000 series laptop chips wasnt that far off of a 1650

[dreamy rose]

Strix seems to have done that.

[gilded quest]

M1 poor person
M1
M1 Pro poor person
M1 Pro
M1 Max poor person
M1 Max
M1 ultra poor person
M1 ultra

which M1

[heady briar]

m1 was efficient but in total perf
eh

[dreamy rose]

the 680m is in the 6000 series not 7000.

[gilded quest]

M1 mba

[heady briar]

both, really

[gilded quest]

is it in both....fucking stupid ass amd with their stupid ass naming scheme

7000 mobile is a goddamn mess

[vapid smelt]

m1 max strong

[pulsar shore]

can i post laptop stuff on build a pc?

[dreamy rose]

well yeah there's the Zen 3 products. but when we talk about the 7000 series mobile chips those 780M graphics go hella friggin crazy

[pulsar shore]

honestly I still dont understand why people insist you can game on apple stuff

[dreamy rose]

apparently OEMs are ditching the low end GPUs entirely and making igpu only gaming laptops. apparently intel's is good enough for them to do that. either way i fucking called it like 10 months ago and nobody listened.

[heady briar]

its mostly amd but
iris xe is up to gt1030 levels so
basic ass gaming sure ig

[dreamy rose]

i highly doubt intel's graphics are gonna compete with RDNA but if they do it with AMD too then they have a real nice spot.

they are so good Nvidia killed their MX chips off.

[low rain]

It hasn’t even been 6 months since I’ve built my pc and I’m already looking at upgrades 😭

[gilded quest]

thats the goal tbh

[dreamy rose]

hell some of these may even run the consoles down.

[gilded quest]

low end gpus are dumb, aside from basic display adapters

[heady briar]

eh
maybe the xbox one but the ps5 is basically a 6700m

[graceful burrow]

Gotta wait another gen for that

Otherwise buy a steam deck

[dreamy rose]

well its actually gotta compete with 52 RDNA 2 CUs, may not be that close but the Strix Halo is gonna get close or even beat the shit out of it.

[graceful burrow]

Buy steam deck

[dreamy rose]

i'm all for Laptop APUs beating the shit out of the Series X.

[graceful burrow]

Buy a steam deck tbh

[dreamy rose]

Ally would be a better buy if it shipped with SteamOS by default. like the deck has no issues with it. ally wouldnt either if they worked with valve.

[graceful burrow]

Ally would be better if not for the 1200p screen and horrid battery life caused by it

[dreamy rose]

the battery life would be way better on SteamOS. Windows is always just that much hungrier.

[gilded quest]

hm

[dreamy rose]

and even matching the decks settings on SteamOS would result in better perf or battery depends on what you choose.

[gilded quest]

i wonder if any 120Hz 800p panels exist

[dreamy rose]

so people argue that Steam Deck is a console yet it doesnt show up under Millions selling consoles on the Wikipedia. where all the millions selling CONSOLES are

i wonder if the conversation would be any different if it was about the Ally

[graceful burrow]

People are more likely to call the ally a pc than the steam deck I think

Valve is a games company
Asus is a pc hardware company

[gilded quest]

steam deck is a console
ally is a handheld pc

[graceful burrow]

How is the steam deck a console

Ally doesn't even have a trackpad

[gilded quest]

quick resume is a helluva drug

[dreamy rose]

the are the same thing how is the deck not a PC?

[gilded quest]

i mean the steam deck is a better console than the ally

[graceful burrow]

That's more asus' fault for not implementing it

The steam deck isn't a console

[gilded quest]

a console is just a pc

[dreamy rose]

you see its not a console

[graceful burrow]

The steam deck is a better handheld pc than the ally

[graceful burrow]

Run windows on that Xbox 360

[dreamy rose]

i've heard people say its not a PC because it doesnt run windows. and you can install windows on deck your point?

[gilded quest]

xbox just runs windows now

[gilded quest]

go run linux on a old ps3

[dreamy rose]

Xbox always ran a custom version of Windows

[polar fern]

🤣 https://nitecrew.rip/@extinct/110432201126993420

[graceful burrow]

I can't edit an excel file on my Xbox

[gilded quest]

yes you can

[graceful burrow]

Prove it

[polar fern]

Exbox

[gilded quest]

xbox has Edge

[polar fern]

Excel editor console

[gilded quest]

Excel has a web version

[dreamy rose]

it does

[graceful burrow]

I hardly count that

I want the full program baybee

[gilded quest]

look itll work mostly

[polar fern]

Counting in excel.

[gilded quest]

maybe you can sideload it idk

[polar fern]

Haha pun

[dreamy rose]

so you are saying Running Excel on an Xbox is an invalid way to edit an excel document?

[gilded quest]

fr
i gave him a solution and he said "no"

[graceful burrow]

[graceful burrow]

I don't mean this negatively it's a genuine question
Are you high

[dreamy rose]

"heres a solution"
"no i hardly count that"

[graceful burrow]

True tbh I did say that

[stray apex]

Does excel have a uwp version

[jaunty compass]

this

the reason i use my deck as much as I do is because it's has the best parts of a console without any of the walled garden restrictive BS

[stray apex]

(steam is a walled garden)

[jaunty compass]

it's easy to pick up and play and basically seamless

[dreamy rose]

not sure but thats a way to run things though it costs 20 dollars to do so

[jaunty compass]

you're not locked to using only steam

i can put whatever the hell i want on this thing

[stray apex]

Put overwatch on it

[jaunty compass]

I don't play overwatch

[stray apex]

I mean

I dunno, can you put gamepass on it

[jaunty compass]

i can put windows on it if i wanted to, so yeah

[stray apex]

How's epic games store support on steamdeck

Putting windows on it kind of defeats the point

[jaunty compass]

not really

i assume there are compatibility issues with EGS and overwatch which is why you're pointing those out but I don't use or play either of those so

if i wanted to run windows on deck, i can without any major issues

the deck ships with steam OS and is quite streamlined and optimized for it but you have the freedom to use windows if you choose

[stray apex]

So
It's a walled garden

[jaunty compass]

that's not a walled garden

[stray apex]

It's like saying android isn't Google's walled garden because um ackshually I can install apks myself

[jaunty compass]

are you really trying to say that linux is a walled garden right now

[stray apex]

Just because the wall is only concertina wire that you can cut through doesn't mean it's not a wall

[dreamy rose]

also doesnt mean you are stuck either.

[stray apex]

Sure, and you can jailbreak an iphone if you want, or root android

That doesn't change the fact that normal consumers are never, ever going to do that

People who buy a steamdeck are overwhelmingly just going to sit in valve's garden

[dreamy rose]

even jailbreaking an iPhone limits you, a bad example

[jaunty compass]

this is a bad example because in most cases apple tries to stop you and most manufacturers or carriers (in the U.S. at least) try to make rooting impossible

the big difference is that valve doesn't try to stop you in any way from using non-steam software on the deck

[dreamy rose]

i always wanted a switch but i got one last day of 2019 and only ever had it in my possession for a year.

[dull schooner]

yeah you're right theres a possibility of bricking

[full fossil]

[dull schooner]

Bowser would have to serve 457 years in Prision alongside 15 life sentences, 4 death sentences and a restraining order to pay for his crimes.

[full fossil]

If I get back into gaming I’m going to drop a fat paycheck on gaming

[full fossil]

War crimes?

[dull schooner]

is that counted from the original NES game to the newest game?

[dreamy rose]

yep. war crimes

[full fossil]

Nice

[dreamy rose]

yep. SMB1 to Odyssey

[dull schooner]

he should've stopped at smb1

[full fossil]

Honestly he shouldn’t have started at all

[dreamy rose]

he does War crimes, Kidnapping, First degree attempted murder, Aggravated assault, Aggravated Assault with a deadly weapon, Battery, Arson, Dangerous use of firearms, Burglary, Grand larceny forced marriage and

he does MANY of them multiple times

[full fossil]

I think mario party is a whole nother situation with war crimes and what not

[dreamy rose]

mario kart would be even worse for him.

[jaunty compass]

MGS3 is getting a remake i can die happy now

this is gonna be a great year for gaming

this year is gonna be a great year for life i already been knew

[graceful burrow]

dont celebrate too early it could be a horrible remake

it is konami we're talking about

[full fossil]

if konami messes up something like this id be surprised, all they have to do is build on the same storyline and same general map and add a few new features and easter eggs and good graphics

mgsv was ahead of its time for graphics and gameplay

[dull granite]

fuck konami lmao

[graceful burrow]

yeah and konami fucked that up didnt they

it's not a secret mgsv was rushed

[dull granite]

also

Metal Gear Survive

[graceful burrow]

Hello everybody , i am new and i need help with discord; i'm looking for overclocking with 13900 or temp, so i search "13900 in: overclocking", i have only 3 result! what i'm doing wrong please?

[graceful burrow]

13900 is a locked chip

[molten niche]

13900k

[graceful burrow]

then they just havent really talked about it in there

nobody's doin anything wrong

[molten niche]

ah it's the exact word? so "temp" don't take "temperature" ?

[graceful burrow]

no clue, should be easy to test if you wanted

[molten niche]

oh, i'm stupid too, i ask here, i didn't check google or discord tutorial yet, sorry

[graceful burrow]

[molten niche]

btw, thank you @graceful burrow

[graceful burrow]

i didnt do anything

[peak phoenix]

anyone know why there's no good stock on the Liquid Freezer II 280 right now? I see some on Amazon but they're above MSRP. Same with Newegg? Are they phasing that model out?

[storm swan]

This reddit post does have a lot of responses related to overlocking i9 13900k

But you would need a really good cooling system, even cooling the processor on stock settings is not easy

[molten niche]

That's one way to make glass. I'm certain a noctua cooler can fix it. 🙃

[dreamy rose]

[vapid smelt]

noctua doesn't even make the best aircoolers anymore

[midnight idol]

talking about the 2023 incident

[dreamy rose]

ah well either way. they are pretty different cases. and that was actually 2001 that was recorded, my bad.

the Ryzens didn't get as hot as the Athlon nor the Palamino either.

i mean 217 is far from 298 and 370

[midnight idol]

☠️

it's still not good

[dreamy rose]

Absolutely not, and frick you ASUS.

[vapid smelt]

other mbos did it too

[midnight idol]

that's why I prefer my hand coded bios

[dreamy rose]

asus isn't bundling functional OCP at all that's what
