[ionic abyss]

and are the ssds properly updated

[full fossil]

everything should be updated bios wise

the pc has been in the shop 2 times now

[ionic abyss]

could be old firmware on the ssd but thats unlikely

[low rain]

Because the number 1 is something but 0 is nothing but nothing can’t be something meaning 0 is nothing

So 0 isn’t a thing

[ionic abyss]

but nothing is something in binary

[full fossil]

the shop kept thinking it was a ram issue

[vapid smelt]

well you have no bitches how do we put that into a number

[ionic abyss]

check for drive firmware updates

its likely not the issue but there is a small chance

[full fossil]

thats a thiing?

[ionic abyss]

yes

some ssds do get updates

windows and pc hardware are a random mix sometimes

[full fossil]

yes this is my 1st build

[ionic abyss]

lol i rember installing and uninstalling drivers in win98 4 times then on the 5th install everything randomly decided to work

same drivers

same exe file

[full fossil]

i checked the msi site, there is only driver dowload for raid

[ionic abyss]

what brand of ssd

[full fossil]

not ahci

[ionic abyss]

wd segate or some other random brand

[full fossil]

lexar and WD both had issues, the WD was extra storage and the lexar had a linux install on it

[ionic abyss]

check wd for a possable update

lexar is unlikely to have one

[full fossil]

i think youre right, i dont think its the drive

[ionic abyss]

oooh

i just saw 8tb hdd with lower price

[full fossil]

if that makes any difference

[peak phoenix]

Article covers 10 and 11. Functionally in this regard they're the same.

[full fossil]

ok i will take a look

i assumed it would be the defualt in windows at this point

but tahnk you

thank you

[ornate minnow]

also its a scam bot it wont care if people ping them in here

[peak phoenix]

Windows determines the storage driver to use when installed. So if it's not in AHCI it'll pick IDE I think it is. If you switch to AHCI later, it doesn't know how to handle it - isStorV crashes since it cannot handle AHCI.

Can the RX 6700 XT output 1280x400? I got one of those mini hdmi bar-displays and doesn't seem to be getting a valid signal.

[wise tundra]

With a custom resolution should be possible

You gotta do it via adrenalin tho

And then select the option afterwards from Windows

Or if you're using Linux then just do it via xrandr

[dreamy spoke]

what about that stuff with timing?

[wise tundra]

Google that shit out

Actually Adrenalin should do it by itself

[dreamy spoke]

Yeah its automatic, but it wont let me.
The bar display shows up in Device Manager with generic PnP driver, but not as a display in windows. so adrenalin tries to apply any custom res to the main 1440p display.

yea

[manic torrent]

Only if you want power and data

[slim steppe]

can it be powered with the data cable?

[manic torrent]

Not if you want it to work

[slim steppe]

i'm trying to figure out what i'd need to buy to hook up a second sata drive

[sonic spruce]

Does a gpu backplate do anything besides ascetics or no?

[manic torrent]

Basically physical protection, and in some cases heatsink

[slim steppe]

i do want it to work 🙃

[lilac bear]

suck the heat out

[supple pawn]

Do you have an unusued sata power off power supply? You can get extra sata data cables anywhere basically.

[slim steppe]

i don't

[agile lake]

just got bell fibre, already having issues.

gotta love it.

[supple pawn]

Any molex?

[slim steppe]

mind if i dm you?

[carmine light]

My name is Donald and I'm an alcoholic

[supple pawn]

Sure no problem

[sonic spruce]

Does a gpu backplate do anything besides ascetics or no?

[carmine light]

The word is "aesthetics" and no

It's just for looks

[agile lake]

Partially, some manufacturers have a thermal pad from backside memory onto it

[sonic spruce]

I asked that like an hour ago, why did it take so long, jeez

[sonic spruce]

Good or bad?

[agile lake]

because we're afk andys

[carmine light]

Considering the memory is usually on the other side, I doubt that.

[sonic spruce]

Also I’m assuming they won’t do that

What disco said

[carmine light]

some rare models have dual sided vram, but that's not really a thing anymore

[agile lake]

@carmine light have you not worked with a 3090 / 3090ti?

i guess crypto mining spoiled me

[sonic spruce]

Yeah it’s a gtx 1660 super so I don’t think it’s double sided vram

[carmine light]

Oh dang they did that on the 3090?

[sonic spruce]

I’m just trying to figure out do I get one with a backplate or no cuz they’re the same price

[carmine light]

I didn't even know that

I'd go backplate if they're the same price. I mean it does look cleaner/nicer

[sonic spruce]

Ok

[carmine light]

imo at least

[agile lake]

the thing that annoys me with the decorative plastic back plates is

[carmine light]

Some say it hurts thermals but that doesn't make sense to me. You'd think it would help

[agile lake]

they just soakup a little heat / collect dust underneath

would be better off without it

[carmine light]

I mean if they're plastic, yeah it might hurt. Mine is metal tho

plastic being an insulator and all

[polar fern]

If it’s metal backplate, is fine. If plastic, prolly just remove

[agile lake]

been 4 hours since bell fibre installed, the modem keeps dcing every 15-45 minutes with some bs error

and then comes back online, lovely first experience.

[polar fern]

My Msi 6650 xt has a decent alu bsckplate.

[sonic spruce]

I think it’s plastic, but if it’s metal, would that help or no?

[slim steppe]

i don't think so

[sonic spruce]

Don’t do molex to sata, bad idea

[carmine light]

I think the amount it would help would be negligible

[polar fern]

Has thermal pads under there too

[slim steppe]

i think its an ATX 4 pin

[supple pawn]

How do you figure? I did that for years without issue.

[polar fern]

Need to review my block list

[carmine light]

Molex power is just asking for trouble. They're known to be cheaper connectors and often short out. You might be fine but why risk it when actual Sata power connectors are cheap and readily available?

It's akin to wiring up your car radio with butt connectors when the actual wiring harness is cheap and requires less work already, not to mention more reliable

[polar fern]

There we go.

[slim steppe]

this is for a prebuilt office pc, what i'm wanting to do is add a second drive

[carmine light]

then I'd buy a new Sata cable, or buy one with multiple plugs on it. They make those. Your average power supply can power multiple SATA devices off a single rail and cable

[slim steppe]

there is one open sata port... but idk about power

[stoic beacon]

Has LTT released the Starfield video they talked about in WAN show a while back yet? I haven't seen it yet

[carmine light]

There's an old PC building saying that goes like this:

"Molex to SATA, lose all your data"

It's a saying because it's common for the Molex adapter to fuggin catch fire

[slim steppe]

i don't think there's a molex connector in the PC, i think it's an ATX 4 pin connector

[carmine light]

That would be on the motherboard. That's not for your SATA devices

I'm not sure what you're asking I guess sorry

[supple pawn]

If you got free ports in your psu, get an actual power cable. If you dont, youll have to adapt.

[dapper robin]

https://tenor.com/view/bonne-soiree-gif-10255505

[slim steppe]

i'm not too sure either 🙃

[supple pawn]

Sata devices use 2 connectors. They looking for the 15 pin.

[slim steppe]

it's not a modular PSU

[carmine light]

Ye, I know. The SATA power 15 pin goes from the SATA device to the PSU, not the motherboard

The smaller, SATA data goes from the SATA device, to the motherboard's SATA data connector

[supple pawn]

Yes. They dont need the motherboard connection.

Can you just do this and extend the existing?

[slim steppe]

nope

[supple pawn]

Not going to be pretty, but if its an office computer who gives a crap? lol

[carmine light]

Do you have any SATA power cables coming off the PSU already?

[slim steppe]

i sent you a screenshot of what the PC looks like inside

[polar fern]

Sata devices what?

[slim steppe]

no. there's an ATX power cable plugged into the motherboard though.

[carmine light]

Ye, don't move that

that's power for the motherboard and CPU stuff

[polar fern]

Esata adapters only use the one cable, fun fact.

[carmine light]

Okay, the PC has a hard drive or SSD installed already, right?

what cables are going into it?

poast a link to a pic if you got it

[polar fern]

Then there’s esatap

Which does need both cables.

[manic torrent]

haha, while this is true, esata was SUPER successful 😄

[polar fern]

Another fun fact, internal sata headers/connectors are rated for 50 matings.

[supple pawn]

LTT should do a video where everything is powered via molex adapters. Might be fun.

For bonus points do it in Linus's house

[carmine light]

Okay Satan, do you want his children to be asleep in a locked room too lol?

[agile lake]

honestly, i could see some systems only seeing that touched 50 times in a lifespan

bit low of a rating to reach for, but almost perfectly suited

[carmine light]

My ex was also rated for 50 matings, but she didn't tell me about them

[slim steppe]

i sent you one last question

[polar fern]

[harsh quartz]

brawl was the best one cause of subspace emissary

[supple pawn]

[polar fern]

Dunno. Never was interested in smash brothers.

smash bros competative is just boring, but the singleplayer/co-op mode was a really cool idea, shame they never followed up on it

i was so excited when they said there was a singleplayer mode in ultimate, then it was just normal smash brothers but in a "story mode" and was incredibly boring

[full fossil]

having issues with msi tomahawk 650b wifi

[mild jewel]

What's the problem?

[full fossil]

does not like having sata drives connected, also some ram issues

[mild jewel]

i'd try RMAing it

[supple pawn]

You sure the ram isnt the issue? Thats more common than a bad mobo, no?

[full fossil]

its had two diffrent pairs trident ram, now using kingston fury. ram issues seem to be ok now, but kinda blue screens from my sata sdds being plugged in

[mild jewel]

do you have a couple of drives so you can check if its your drive or your mobo?

[full fossil]

its done it with two diffrent ssds

https://linustechtips.com/topic/1527645-bsod-driver_power_state_failure-storahcisys/#comment-16163131

[mild jewel]

checked for bent pins maybe? That's a stretch but

could be

[full fossil]

basically my issue

switched the sata mode to raid in the bios,

but thats not really a ideal fix

[mild jewel]

oh and that works??

which raid

[full fossil]

idk which raid, i just toggled it from achi to raid , idk its raid 1 etc

[tired glade]

Raid 1 SSD, let's go

[full fossil]

all the drivers and frimware should be up to date

im going to ask for another mobo tomorrow

i paid the instore replacement fee for so many of the parts, i might as well use the service

[agile lake]

imagine bell, installing your internet, giving you a faulty modem and leaving you at the mercy of canada post to get your replacement in, and having to HOPE that one works

on day 1 of installation

[full fossil]

bell and canada post, a winning combo

[agile lake]

they installed fibre today, it connects and works for roughly 2 - 40 minutes before giving auth and profile config errors.

could go 2 minutes and shit the bed, or last over an hour. i'm at it's mercy lol

so i called them, thinking oh yeah a field tech could come and swap it. nope. wait for canada post... the guy had multiple units with him

[full fossil]

always so much red tape

[agile lake]

if shaw wasn't going up by over 40$/ a month i'd stay, but that's too much

[full fossil]

im paying 100 for 300mb/s cable atm

[agile lake]

i was paying $84 a month with shaw and now contract is up

new price is 149, i thought they were mad

for 1gb down 100mb up

so bell offered me 1.5gb down 1gb up for $70 a month

[full fossil]

yeah , i should switch

[agile lake]

but yeah, problems with them since installation.

[full fossil]

but lazy to deal witth the whole process

[agile lake]

hoping this next modem / router fixes it perm. apparently lots of bell customers have problems until it's just suddenly fixed

[full fossil]

speed is only a issue when downloading large games

[agile lake]

lol i was dling steam games at 133 MB/s

5 minutes for 40 gbs feels nuts

[full fossil]

i get my full 300

[agile lake]

https://i.imgur.com/mKvl6Xy.png

[full fossil]

nice

[agile lake]

they just provisioned me a new port after trouble shooting, modem has been up for 20 minutes so far.. here's hoping.

it did error out immediately after they did it, but has been stable since a 3rd reboot lol

[full fossil]

the wifi 6e from the isp modem is not bad, nice seeing atleast 1gb on the speedtest from there too

i need a new router

[manic torrent]

100mb? what year is it?

i hate being on 12 hear old graphics hardware

[polar fern]

War < chillin with peeps

Online, irl, on the phone, whatever. It good.

[crimson charm]

there's an internet provider near me that only offers up to 30mbps, with competitors offering 5gbps

[polar fern]

What’s the pricing?

[crimson charm]

like 80 bucks a month 💀

[past egret]

all you do online is argue with people, why not argue in real life

[crimson charm]

or somethin like that they force you to bundle it into their tv and phone shit, the total is like 210 or somethin crazy

[polar fern]

Wat

USD $?

[crimson charm]

yea

[dreamy otter]

I assume this is DSL

[crimson charm]

ye prob, it's crazy that they're still offering it when the infrastructure for coax and fiber both already exist in the area

[manic torrent]

at 30mbps it's probably string and tin cans

[crimson charm]

lol

[dreamy otter]

AT&T wanted $55/mo for 25mbps DSL at my old house up until around 2021 lol

Then Fiber came over from the other neighborhoods less than a mile away

[full fossil]

currently downloading a game at 35mb/s 😦

Hi guys, subscriber from India, Linus tech has not done any videos related to cable management. If you guys, can make a video about cable management that would be great. I mean i always wondered how these custom pc builders manage to end up such neatly with cables in cabinet while we just push them in and close it

[alpine gale]

You can make a video suggestion in this thread. 🙂

Zip ties.

Lots of zip ties

[alpine gale]

Shhh ... I cannot confirm nor deny that a SATA SSD is "attached" to my vertically mounted power supply using zipties and 3M VHB double sided tape. 👀 "If it works, it works..."

[full fossil]

SSD?

Mounted?

Lmao. Hang it

My NZXT Phantom 530 has a dynamat + random screws mounted HDD cage.

[alpine gale]

Nice! I mean, when it comes to SSDs, it really doesn't matter how they're mounted.

[hollow knot]

I personally put my ssd between my cpu and my waterblock for extra cooling

So my three year old freaks out any time I get on the treadmill. She thinks it's gonna hurt me lol. It's kinda cute, but at the same time idk why she's so terrified and I don't wanna traumatize her lol

anyone know the first video game that had real car engine sounds?

[manic torrent]

[restive tartan]

tryna write a paper on game engine audio

[restive tartan]

im too young...

que?

oh shit this game...

really?

not seeing anything about it

[manic torrent]

hahahah no it doesn't have real sounds

[restive tartan]

yeah i played this when i was super young i dont remember it having real sounds

this shit old as hell no way

man this question is hard to answer...

[manic torrent]

the thing is, what is "real"

[restive tartan]

youre so right

nothing is real

[manic torrent]

it wasn't until recently that they actually went and recorded cars and made it accurate

it also wasn't until recently that you could model exhausts accurately

https://www.carthrottle.com/news/how-audio-engineers-record-and-develop-engine-noises-car-games

[restive tartan]

this is a really cool article

thanks for sharing this with me

[manic torrent]

There's also some on the forza sounds, because I know the forza guys went out and actually recorded cars too

so when you get cars that have a very specific sound, you know it's there. And You can tell - if you've really seen/driven a car and you drive it in a sim and the sound is off, the magic isn't quite there

but if the sound is bang on, it might just capture the same magic 🙂

[restive tartan]

yeah driving my car irl and ingame in fh 5 is vastly different and it makes my balls shrink...

[manic torrent]

and for some cars the sound is the WHOLE point. like... it's not fast or amazing, but it sounds GREAT

[restive tartan]

like the lfa

that v10 makes me faint each time...

[manic torrent]

The supercharger whine or the multiple throttle body intake sound etc

haha yes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kIBPqMmaws

[restive tartan]

YES

[manic torrent]

Play that on a decent sound system? chills.

[restive tartan]

why do v10s all sound amazing

[restive tartan]

got a 7.1 channel downstairs ill do that tomorrow 🙂

[manic torrent]

because 5cyl also sound amazing

it's the 5th cylinder.

[restive tartan]

how...

[manic torrent]

it's the way the waves crash into each other in the exhaust

https://youtu.be/xY92F-Ua8DM This is my subaru. Took a while to get the setup right to get the sound, but it sounds good.

[manic torrent]

looool a kangaroo will fucking rek you.

[barren apex]

i know

[manic torrent]

you don't fuck with them

[restive tartan]

but ill fuck em

[barren apex]

maybe if youre mike tyson and get one good shot in

[manic torrent]

only thing you do with kangaroos is hit em with your car, shoot em, eat em, or leave them the fuck alone.

[restive tartan]

[manic torrent]

gorilla will absolutely rip his arms off, confirmed.

also did you know koalas have the biggest layer of CSF of any animal? to protect their brains for when they fall out of trees

last random fact. did you know a main predator of moose.... are orcas?

[wraith sonnet]

Oh shit bobs finding deals

[barren apex]

i think bob knows hes going to lose if we actually fight. i picked the one category im confident he cant definitely beat me in

[restive tartan]

he'll hit you with his subuwu

[barren apex]

I think I could beat him at a war of puns as well. He'd be turned into a bobblehead by the end, i'd bob and weave until i wear him down until his hard head looks like its been trampled by a moose....a true punishment

[sonic spruce]

So I want to test my gtx 1660 super in a crappy pc before putting it in mine (to game and test drivers), is a pc with i5-2500 and 16 GBs of ram good enough?

Sata may be used to power the gpu

[barren apex]

that may be a problem sata power isn't meant for much - what does a 1660 draw

unless the board supplies power, this is a hwbob q

a lot of people made the mistake of trying to power risers with sata connectors with 30 series and that ends badly

[sonic spruce]

125 watts

125 - 75 from pcie bus

50 watts
Sata has 54 watts

54 > 50, it has enough power

[manic torrent]

terrible idea

[sonic spruce]

Ok then, let me think what else

Hmmmm
I GOT AN IDEA

[manic torrent]

literally anything

[sonic spruce]

I have a 680 watt psu just chilling

What if I made a pc for that psu

[manic torrent]

yep. Do that, ground the green wire and turn it on, then use that for the extra power

[sonic spruce]

What?

[manic torrent]

short pin 14? I think to ground and it will turn on the power supply

[sonic spruce]

Only problem is it has it has a 4 pin atx power for cpu

[manic torrent]

Green to black, power turns on.

[sonic spruce]

Oh I see what you’re saying

[barren apex]

power the gpu with the extra psu, he's telling you how to power on that psu without it being in a pc

[sonic spruce]

I play on using it in that pc to test it to see if it works and to make sure it downloads drivers

[sonic spruce]

Ok, but how do you test it and make it can get drivers and is Lego

Legit*

I don’t want to make a shitty pc but I also don’t want to spend more than $100 usd

Fuck

[barren apex]

they make adapters for things like this but you can also just do it the not 100% safe way power on the gpu PSU first, then the PC

[manic torrent]

you don't get both

trust me I spend a fortune making not shit stuff

[sonic spruce]

Fuck

[manic torrent]

I literally just spent $400 AUD to make my network not shit. It works fine as is

[sonic spruce]

I can if I use ddr3 pc

Cuz I already have the ram

[manic torrent]

I am also about to buy a 10gb NIC for my desktop, because I have a 10gb switch, so wtf wouldn't I use 10gb! 😄

[barren apex]

im confused what your issue is now

[manic torrent]

But I'll be expanding to a ubiquiti poe switch and AP soon

and I'll probably get another AP for in here

[barren apex]

@manic torrent this should work for him right? assuming whatever ddr3 thing he has doesnt. i remember doing something similar for testing something

[sonic spruce]

Ok so i7-4790 + h81 mobo + thermal paste + ssd = 40 + 32 + 3 + 15 = 90 usd

[manic torrent]

yeah you can basically hack up anything to do anything, you just need sufficient brain portals

[barren apex]

sorry redish, can you tldr what you need a 100 dollar pc for? like did your old one die?

[sonic spruce]

Do I have sufficient brain portals?

[sonic spruce]

I want to put it in a test pc so if it’s bad I don’t kill my pc

[manic torrent]

in general? no. For this? possibly.

[barren apex]

gpu isnt going to kill your pc

[sonic spruce]

Just to be on the safe side

[barren apex]

what are the specs of your current pc youre worried about killing

[sonic spruce]

I7-12700k, 32 GBs ddr5-5600mhz

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/PgNK34

Here’s the pc part picker link

[barren apex]

you dont happen to live in san diego do you? i'd just give you a riser to test with

[sonic spruce]

I live in the San Diego area

Riser?

[barren apex]

https://www.amazon.com/AsiaHorse-Extension-Shielded-Express-Length/dp/B0BFQTCYP2/

or just bring your gpu and ill plug it into my computer. legitimate offer, but i dont want you to feel unsafe

[sonic spruce]

I don’t see how this will solve my problems

[sonic spruce]

Oh ok, question. Is where you work hiring?

And also what type of store you work in, cuz I have 2 degrees

Both of them are associate degrees tho

[past bloom]

are there any australian here that might know where i can find single 8 pin pcie cable thats is compatible with gigabyte p850gm psu?

[manic torrent]

you have two degrees!?

[sonic spruce]

Yes?
Why is that a surprise?

[barren apex]

I have three degrees, am self employed, running discord deal server to (once i finish bot) post automated amazon deals. was admin at server that cant mention name of where owner is a thief before that (got CS degree during covid and was dev/admin while getting it). but no im not hiring, all profits from my server go to the people posting deals by hand atm

[sonic spruce]

Gotcha

[barren apex]

(thats why i bet bob on deals)

[vernal heath]

🍞

[manic torrent]

... and why I conceded 😉

[barren apex]

i conceded the pun contest, so we're square

[sonic spruce]

Having a 2 year degree in computer science doesn’t mean anything tbh

[barren apex]

its a little dirty of amazon - on the first page of my cart, 10 items say "prime day big deal" have not changed price in a week

[sonic spruce]

You can still only work minimum wage jobs

[manic torrent]

I have no degree in anything 😄

[sonic spruce]

You can’t do anything high paying until you get a 4 year degree

[barren apex]

I have a BS in CS friend.

[manic torrent]

strongly disagree

[sonic spruce]

Don’t worry, once you finish college, I’m sure you’ll get a 2 year degree

[sonic spruce]

Not in California

[manic torrent]

....

[sonic spruce]

Congrats

[barren apex]

.... bob did this guys brain like get zapped

[manic torrent]

I have worked in IT for over 25 years

[sonic spruce]

I have an AD in CS, and Math and natural science

[manic torrent]

You know this.

[sonic spruce]

Yes

[sonic spruce]

How tf, nice

[sonic spruce]

I did not, sorry

[manic torrent]

hence my "you have two degrees?!"

[sonic spruce]

Fair enough

Tbh, I wasn’t even trying to get one of them, they just gave it to me

[barren apex]

I actually have 3 for life reasons and was offering him a free cable and/or a PC to test with and got insulted instead lol

[manic torrent]

it's because he has the brain worms

[barren apex]

tis all good, we all have bad days

[sonic spruce]

My bad, I meant no malice behind what I said

[sonic spruce]

Correction, my brain is fried from work and school

I’m going to uni for my bd in cs

[barren apex]

hehe. you can get a 4 year degree in 1.5 years via whats called a post-bacc program fyi. that's what I did for mine during covid. accelerated program, they offer a full 4 year version too but I don't need to take history again

)if you already have one)

[sonic spruce]

Anyways I’m like 1.5 years away from finish so I should be good

[vapid cypress]

I'm sure they are counting it with cookies

[rustic trench]

but didn't Google say they won't use cookies anymore?

[vapid cypress]

I think that chrome that said it

They will use a more of a intrusive kind of cookies

Well it is google but it only applies to the chrome browser

would a wifi booster have a different ip than the actual wifi

[manic torrent]

.... then it would just be "other wifi"

[vapid cypress]

I think it just repeats an incoming signal

[wise tundra]

Ok so I got a crazy idea

I was thinking could it be possible to get fiber downstairs at an apartment building, then push the internet over MoCA to each apartment and still have it possible for people to use both internet and TV?

[manic torrent]

Possibly? I think that's how some places do it

[tired glade]

You should ask that question to landlord

[wise tundra]

I'm going to ask the ISP first that would they be willing. The building association is most likely going to be fine with it as long as it doesn't cost anything for them

MoCA 3.0 would allow 10Gbit connections

[wise tundra]

We have 38 apartments. Would be way easier to get MoCA running than installing fiber to each and every apartment

If that is possible I mean

[wraith sonnet]

Question for anyone willing to answer, I normally game at 1080p but have been looking at 4k monitors for normal work situations, is it worth it? My GPU definitely can't handle 4k gaming but I was planning on just doing 1080p stretched anyways

[manic torrent]

for small monitors, fine, for large monitors, not as fine 🙂

1080p looks like ASS on my 48"

[wraith sonnet]

Current monitor is 32" 1080p, I'm thinking 32" 4k

[manic torrent]

so basically the same really

[thin fjord]

that'll be a tremendous upgrade

[manic torrent]

but you will be also able to run FSR/DLSS in some games and have it look way better

[wraith sonnet]

Yes, basically the same but some quality of life improvements outside of gaming

[red breach]

1080p 32” isn’t really good for text. Have had a decent TV of that size for a decade and it’s serviceable but not sharp

[wraith sonnet]

Don't forget XeSS : )

[manic torrent]

I generally run 1080p on my TV in the lounge, because I'm across the room from it

[thin fjord]

chad pilgrim of the new frontier

[red breach]

Are you sure you aren’t forgetting the sweet spot? 1440p

144hz 1440p panels are $200-250 on the entry

[manic torrent]

32" 1440p you will HAVE to run 1440p.

[red breach]

FSR/DLSS is making that a non issue

[wraith sonnet]

1440p is higher res but it's basically 4 720p panels rather than 4 1080p panels

[red breach]

Right

[manic torrent]

less of an issue, but yeah

[red breach]

You’d get what I’d call “ideal” size on a 32” pane

Where 4K @2x scale is kinda 1080p because it literally is

[manic torrent]

1440p on 32" is the exact same pitch as 24 1080 and 48 4k

[wraith sonnet]

I don't know if I really want multi tasking to go from 540p to 720p

[red breach]

You’d get more usable real estate for desktop usage that’s for certain

[wraith sonnet]

But it is an upgrade

[red breach]

You’d be missing the “retina” @2x effect the 4K display would give you but

You’d have more working area

[wraith sonnet]

I guess I can do some window shopping and then make a decision

[manic torrent]

I could upgrade my vertical monitors to 32" if I wanted it to go tie fighter - but the pixels would be a 1:1 match. My 27" side monitors are the same PHYSICAL size as my 48", but they are 1440p so higher density

[red breach]

https://www.fiercepc.co.uk/wp/wp-content/uploads/FRC_BLOG_Thumbnail_1080p-vs-1440p-Resolution-diagram.webp may help understand the scaling

You’d get a LOT more desktop on the 1440p panel

[thin fjord]

one thing i did was demo the panel by buying it then returned it when i was done and made my decision from there. it's hard to make a decision without a frame of reference

[wraith sonnet]

I manage a computer store so I can demo whatever I want but we literally only carry MSI panels for some reason

[thin fjord]

you win some, you lose some

[wraith sonnet]

We have a 4k monitor from MSI but it's like 1000 USD before employee discounts and at that rate I'd go for the Alienware qdoled

[thin fjord]

employee discounts on electronics sounds like heaven

[manic torrent]

look, if your monitors aren't on a custom motorised adjustable crucifix, what are you even doing

I much prefer no discount and earning more money 😄

[wraith sonnet]

Technically it only gets us either to MSRP or purchasing cost

[thin fjord]

type of monitor that requires a blood sacrifice to get so many colors

[thin fjord]

this is the ideal but if my job is offering discounts instead of better pay, i'd rather it be for something i actually want instead of half off of my lunch

[wraith sonnet]

Is Bob the antichrist?

[thin fjord]

no way you were serious 😭

[manic torrent]

I'm not here to fuck spiders

[thin fjord]

i dont know what that means and it makes this interaction all the more funny

[wraith sonnet]

Nevermind he's just Australian

[thin fjord]

??? 😭

what about i giant crucifix and spiders told you he was australian

[wraith sonnet]

Spiders in Australia man

Also prior knowledge iirc

[fierce moth]

Spiders are cool

[manic torrent]

"not here to fuck spiders" is a very australian saying

[wraith sonnet]

So are drop bears

[fierce moth]

There are no drop bears in my backyard

Only my fat ginger cat

[harsh quartz]

Drop cats

that $1000 game console pc video was really frustrating because that mini pc was a well known mini system you could find for like $500 or something

and he was thinking it was rebranded or something- Like bro just check aliexpress

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804688617366.html?
it's that easy

[wraith sonnet]

Question, was 60 USD for a mostly complete icegiant thermosiphon worth it?

I'm missing two fans

[jaunty compass]

like the prototype or the prosiphon elite

[wraith sonnet]

Prosiphone elite

[jaunty compass]

if it works go for it

[wraith sonnet]

Probably gonna swap all the fans for d30s

Rgb that competes with a12s yes please

[jaunty compass]

they're $170 new and you can't really get them used easily so if it works $60 is good

it wasn't even a short circuit and they just didn't check aliexpress for another 5 minutes

[wraith sonnet]

???

[jaunty compass]

The AliExpress emulator PC in the ltt video from 4 months ago was a somewhat well known mini gaming PC that just had a bunch of pirated ROMs thrown on it

And they didn't bother looking for 5 minutes or they would have found the same model for half the price without the ROMs from a different seller

It wasn't even a rebrand, they were literally just installing batocera and downloading a bunch of ROMs onto it, it's one of these

They make a RTX 2060 version now, too

[crystal willow]

Its ltt afterall what did you excpect

[wise tundra]

My contact at the fiber ISP isn't answering the phone. Annoying.

[crystal willow]

Google fiber?

[wise tundra]

No a local one

Google fiber isn't a thing for customers here

[mild ferry]

Any good tv recommendations for 250?

[crystal willow]

why?

[wise tundra]

How the fuck do I know

[crystal willow]

internet is a monopoly in the uae. Is one and only one company with 2 brands to make you think theyre competing

[wise tundra]

We have quite many ISPs

[crystal willow]

You pay over $100 dollars for 150mbs

[wise tundra]

I even technically work for an ISP

[crystal willow]

Theyre trying to stop starlink cuz they know theyre going to get crushed

[wise tundra]

Our office has a direct 10Gbit link to the internet backbone

[crystal willow]

Where is that?

the line in central america

[wise tundra]

The office or the backbone?

I'm extremely confused

[gilded forge]

how do you TECHNICALLY work for an ISP?

[crystal willow]

the baclbone

[wise tundra]

Being an ISP isn't the main product, but we do act as ISPs for some major local companies

And by local I mean within the country

[gilded forge]

ohh okay

[wise tundra]

I mean the internet backbone is a pretty big thing, it's not a single thing

[crystal willow]

Guys if the isp is advertising 750 speeds is it 750 mb/s or 750mbps

[wise tundra]

Mbps

[crystal willow]

I thought it was the physical fiber optic

[wise tundra]

750MB/s would be 6Gbit

[crystal willow]

cuz i seem to get an 8th of the ad speed even tho am the only one using it

[wise tundra]

It is but it's not one fiber

[thin fjord]

isn't that about the same as converting mbps to mbs

[crystal willow]

yeah /8

[wise tundra]

My brain thinking about /8 as the mask

[crystal willow]

How is that

[wise tundra]

I'm not going to start to explain you how the company I work for works

[crystal willow]

Who'll know

Oh i think your username is your name

Its a moneylaundring company

[half summit]

I hate walmart

They're not letting me work till Nov 11

[jaunty compass]

( You are a seasonal worker)

[pliant karma]

the Mariah Carey All I Want For Christmas starts playing

I swear that song is basically torture now

[neon mesa]

for most people, it's a happy song
for retail workers, it's a sign there will be a karen influx

[vapid cypress]

People who work in stores probably go insane after listening to it 5363 times in one day

I hate music at work because it gets stuck in your head for hours after you already left the job

Unless they play a unique song each time

But usually it's a freaking radio that loops the SAME songs

[merry gull]

just bought stardew valley, hopefully it's not a shitty game

[vapid cypress]

It kinda boring

At least for me

Tho I haven't played much so idk

Could be fun later

[merry gull]

I was told it was fun

[vapid cypress]

I'm sure it is

I honestly don't know what to do in that game

I tried farming and fishing

[harsh quartz]

That’s about it

[tired glade]

I always counted time with music tracks at work

Kinda helped with productivity

[vapid cypress]

😭that's the worst

When you count time time gets slower

But when you work it flies fast

[tired glade]

It made time go faster, because I know how much every task took

[atomic osprey]

Hey guys

Is FB Marketplace legit

for second hand parts

[tired glade]

It's legit, just be careful

[atomic osprey]

I'm thinking of buying a PC Case and a Monitor, what should I look out for?

[full fossil]

What happened to the ltt tv live?

[tired glade]

Yea, Facebook market is fine for that

[tired glade]

Videos ended

Vod should be somewhere there

[atomic osprey]

Thank you, but like what should I check to make sure the things are legit before buying

[tired glade]

Don't pick up it from dark alley and such

[full fossil]

if a deal is too good. ex $500 case for $25

[wise lion]

omg, amd.com is down. how am i supposed to get my drivers?

[atomic osprey]

How about a 2 year old 349 dollar monitor for 180 dollars

[mild elm]

From me

In dms

[full fossil]

that doesnt seem bad because its been 2 years

[wise lion]

how much are they? i have a 6700xt

[full fossil]

i go by the if its more than a 60-70% price drop to look at there fb profile to make sure they have a good rep

[wise lion]

i'll pay up to $5,000 per driver

[full fossil]

amd site is not down

[atomic osprey]

looks like a college student, profile is not fully open though

[wise lion]

hmm, it's down for me

[full fossil]

if the product has a description that matches and pictures i would msg them and if they ask for money to hold or anything then i would not go for it. Its best not to buy shipping items off facebook marketplace because fb doent have the best buyer protection.

[full fossil]

https://www.amd.com/en/support

[wise lion]

This site can’t be reached

[dusty rune]

[maiden lintel]

Guys whats a good gaming monitor for around 250-300 euros

[dusty rune]

g27q

[maiden lintel]

monitor in general

[spice pine]

https://google.com/search?q=good+gaming+monitor+for+300+euros

[maiden lintel]

i did that

[spice pine]

i don’t think you did

[maiden lintel]

theres just alot of options

[spice pine]

well you’re asking a vague question

“good” is subjective. what do you need from the monitor

[true thunder]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yDgTn6 is this a good build, if not why?

[full fossil]

Hot take: no one needs more than 1 gigabit

[wispy marsh]

Users? Not needed
Homelabbers? Need
Enterprise? Need
SME? Depending on workload

[full fossil]

Nah, nobody

Make the web slow again!

[full fossil]

its not bad

[true thunder]

can i improve it?

and do i need more fans?

[eternal hearth]

you could get 7800 xt 😃

[shadow shard]

does ebay refund if the gpu is broken or i got scammed

[full fossil]

they should

[low rain]

I sit in the back of the class and like everyone is playing either the google snake game or flappy bird

[shadow shard]

im debating whether to buy from ebay or not

[graceful burrow]

If it's not as described you can get a refund but if it's sold as is or for parts and you get it you can't refund it because it doesn't work

[pliant karma]

lol when I am in the store and an interesting song comes up I add it to my playlist

[shadow shard]

yh ok got it i shall think about it
