[tardy terrace]

suck my discs

[gilded quest]

I need more discs after this fucking google/whatever record studio legal dispute is happening rn

[grim belfry]

GPON is crazy cheap now

[tardy terrace]

They're doing the northern side of town but not anything south of [REDACTED] street.

[tardy terrace]

I literally just need an SFP optic on my end and at the dslam, and a fiber cable hung overhead

[grim belfry]

It’s not that simple

But kind of

[tardy terrace]

I know. The dslam side is going to need a gpon box

well, the fancy isp-sided one

[grim belfry]

I also doubt you’d be provisioned an SFP ONT

[tardy terrace]

my modem is literally an ONT.

sfp cage and all, I just need the optics.

[grim belfry]

You will most likely be provisioned a seperate ONT

[tardy terrace]

I'll tell them to suck my discs.

if I'm paying for the setup, I'm choosing the tech.

[grim belfry]

No, no you’re not

[tardy terrace]

It would literally be the easiest.

[grim belfry]

If you’re willing to pay for a custom enterprise solution, you can choose the technology

[grim belfry]

Perhaps for you

[tardy terrace]

I have literally talked w/ techs when they're servicing the dslam & pots cabinets.

this is not some willy-nilly peyton-is-high idea

[gilded quest]

I'm with you here

[grim belfry]

Anything can be done….

[gilded quest]

I'm totally lost

[grim belfry]

It’s just whether you’re willing to pay for it

[harsh quartz]

Ikr, who doesn’t just like somewhere with fiber 😉

[tardy terrace]

ISP does GPON in my area in the first place, it's FTTN, and the dslam still has a fuckload of space in the cabinet to support smaller gpon units.

[grim belfry]

You want fibre in the middle of nowhere? Sure thing. We can do anything. You’ll just be paying $700/month on a 3 year term :)

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, that’s why you move out of the middle of nowhere

(I live in the boonies)

We just got fiber like 2 years ago and we’re the last road in the direction to get it, so fuckin nice

[tardy terrace]

Fuck that, if it's middle of nowhere, trench your own buried fiber line & save a fuckload

[grim belfry]

It’d be more costly for someone to DIY

[tardy terrace]

But more fun!

[harsh quartz]

And connect it to what?

[tardy terrace]

To wherever the ISP feels like terminating on your property

[harsh quartz]

But the problem is that the ISP won’t create a termination that far away

[grim belfry]

Carrier licensing also comes with the benefit of not having to get council or landowner approval, whereas if somebody wanted to DIY they’d need to gain that approval

[harsh quartz]

You live in the country, hope you like satellite or hughesnet

[grim belfry]

DIYing would be ridiculously expensive

[harsh quartz]

Yo I’ve never seen a company with this bad of a rating

[alpine gale]

https://tenor.com/view/pirates-of-the-caribbean-getitoff-gif-26679851

Hughesnet = black spot. 🤢 🤮

[slim steppe]

i want to give that rating to CenturyLink/Brightspeed

all i get is 1.5 mbps

[tardy terrace]

doesn't hugesnet literally use the old echostar constellation

[harsh quartz]

Centurylink, we had to use that for a few store locations at the company I used to work for, absolutely shit, unreliable and slow

But hughesnet is worse

[grim belfry]

Don’t get me started on Starlink

[tardy terrace]

centurylink is great if you're within their more modern service areas

[harsh quartz]

No one mentioned starlink, but go off boo

[dusky jacinth]

Isn't HughesNet like the bottom rung of satellite internet choices pretty much?

[vapid smelt]

i really want to spend the money on 10 gig

[grim belfry]

Geosynchronous satellite was mentioned

[slim steppe]

its a damn nightmare if you live in a rural area

[urban thistle]

Should I get the Corsair 3000D

[tardy terrace]

I'm like 50m too far to pester centurylink for g.fast

[urban thistle]

Looks like a nice case

[dusky jacinth]

We don't even get CenturyLink out here apparently.

[harsh quartz]

Utopia fee is the most dystopia shit I ever heard

[vapid smelt]

they own and ran the fiber

[slim steppe]

"Utopia fee"

sounds like dystopia to me, but then 10Gbps sounds like Utopia compared to my 1.5 mbps 😭

[dusky jacinth]

Yet, our power company teamed up with Connexon, so now it's apparently possible to get fiber internet out here for cheap, in a rural area pretty much.

[harsh quartz]

Yep, and it’s like all you get here if your not covered by the local ISPs :p

[tardy terrace]

ziply has fucking 50gig residential service

[harsh quartz]

Why is it called a utopia fee

[graceful burrow]

In a utopia you wouldn't have to pay for internet you'd just get the fastest

[vapid smelt]

becuase utopia owns it and its their fee

[harsh quartz]

Damn people really out here naming their companies shit like utopia

[tardy terrace]

That's capitalism for you

[slim steppe]

to make it sound better i guess

[gilded quest]

I have fibre and I pay the fibre company for it and that's as far as the journey goes

[slim steppe]

That's not capitalism. That's greed.

[tardy terrace]

those are the same things lmao

but this isn't a conversation for here.

[slim steppe]

they are not the same.

[harsh quartz]

Like I said, internet is the dmarc, everything past the dmarc is just a cloud that may or may not exist.

[gilded quest]

Bruh
I can get 10gig but it's definitely a "call for pricing" kind of tier
Same with 50gig

2gig is their highest standard tier

[tardy terrace]

I'd cry tears of joy w/ gigabit & symmetrical speeds

[vapid smelt]

+30$

[slim steppe]

i pay more for less

$50 per month + taxes + fees
1.5 mbps, unreliably (often slows down or goes out when there's wind or rain)

[manic torrent]

I have a Razer Orochi (v1), Corsair Dark Core RGB Pro SE, Logitch MX Master 3, Logitech 502X Plus (with a powerplay mat), Logitech G700, and a Rapoo MT760
... no, I don't have a problem, YOU have a problem!
and uhhh, yes, that is more in mice than some people spend on their whole PC, if you were counting. Which I wasn't.

[manic torrent]

I have to wait a year for 2gb

[hearty rain]

The fact that arcade restore disc's don't check what device their recovering to is funny lol

[vapid smelt]

symmetrical?

[grim belfry]

Not necessarily...

[grim belfry]

no

Wholesale upstream speeds of 500Mbps

[harsh quartz]

To jump from 250 to 1gig is wild

[vapid smelt]

why do you wear crocs

[hearty rain]

Why not.

[manic torrent]

LOL, symmetrical is BUSINESS GRADE.

[manic torrent]

true, but you know what I mean

[grim belfry]

Yeah lol

You can get symmetric 2gig ID/ EA for around the $850 mark

[manic torrent]

bargain!

[grim belfry]

1:1 CoS is about double that

Nevermind about triple

quite cheap in rural areas
Pretty much everywhere is classed as route 1

[hearty rain]

I got that at my home...

Legit fidium has that for residential users

[grim belfry]

Not even business, ENTERPRISE GRADE

[hearty rain]

1 gig sym

My home has uh 1 giig symmetrical according fidium maybe their lying..

Maybe their not...

[vapid smelt]

good to know how long your password is

[hearty rain]

Lol the app looks to randomize those

Last time it showed 4

[vapid smelt]

suuure

[alpine gale]

Not even enterprise, GOVERNMENT GRADE. no, wait, not like that.

[wispy marsh]

I have sym 1g/1g for ~$26 including taxes

The contact is for two years, after which it will be $29

[vapid smelt]

but how much are 4090s

[wispy marsh]

1.8k usd after taxes

[balmy tiger]

mine is 44€ per month

so like 48 usd

but it has wifi 6e

and im probably being bottlenecked by my ethernet

[wispy marsh]

For a 4090?

[vapid smelt]

that just depends on your router

[wispy marsh]

Wifi 6e is dictated by hardware capability and not line speed though?

[balmy tiger]

Oh I fucking am bottlenecked

it's not 1g, it's 2g

[wispy marsh]

6e will help with vr

[balmy tiger]

my ethetnet port maxes out at 1G

[balmy tiger]

internet plan

[wispy marsh]

Get a 1g plan then

[balmy tiger]

its fiiinneee

I can get a 2.5g nic

[sterile rock]

This an appropriate place to ask a quick question?

[long briar]

no

[vapid smelt]

thats what google is for

[sterile rock]

lol alrighty then

🫡

[smoky badge]

damn

[turbid oriole]

That’s just unjustifiable

For that price you can build two pcs with 3000 series cards and a 13-14 gen cpu

[pliant oak]

Hi!

[past pond]

hi

[long briar]

what other card can you get with the same performance?

[rich mortar]

From our local fast and cheap burger joint. I wonder if they did a proper risk assessment when comitting to this solution. (It's just the 240volt outlet, but still hurts like hell when you get zapped)

[mint elbow]

can anyone help my tech support

[vapid smelt]

https://tenor.com/view/chris-tucker-hell-no-friday-no-fuck-that-gif-10096547

[grizzled obsidian]

hi!

[mortal kraken]

what

That's even crude than the things I see here which are already crude

[glass mural]

I’m sensing a lawsuit payout

[turbid oriole]

Nothing but not like anyone needs it realistically

Maybe for renders I guess?

It’s just unjustified at the price imo

[long briar]

so what you're saying is "most people don't need an 1800 dollar graphics card so people who do need it are lying"

When you have the absolute best of the best you can charge pretty much anything you want

[wet marsh]

yo

[turbid oriole]

No, I’m saying that people who buy it either made an impulse decision or just bought whatever’s the best on the market without considering if they need it

It’s like teens who buy an iPhone 16 Pro Max or a Samsung S24 Ultra to scrolls Instagram all day and that’s it

[flat mango]

Nobody needs a gaming PC period, it's a luxury item

[turbid oriole]

Yeah but you can run anything just fine on a 3000 series gpu because that’s what game devs are focusing the demographic to be on at the very most right now

Buying current gen GPUs is just dumb overall imo. It’s pricey and overkill

[vapid smelt]

but 4k gaming

[turbid oriole]

I mean yeah…?

I’ve always been a 1080p user, and I’m mentally I’ll probably cause I’m still rocking a 60hz monitor(haven’t had the $$$ to upgrade)

[rich mortar]

Naa, probably not going to happen in Sweden

[glass mural]

Sweden mentioned must ikeapost

[vapid smelt]

bro its under $110 for a 1080p 144hz+ ips monitor

[turbid oriole]

That highly depends on where you live

[glass mural]

Ok bye chat I’m off to go do something

[vapid smelt]

its head is too small for the body

[turbid oriole]

In my country everything tech is like 20-30% cheaper than outside

[glass mural]

It looks better in person

[flat mango]

If I can enjoy the game more because it runs better then my enjoyment has an intrinsic value. If I can afford the best then why shouldn't I be able to increase my enjoyment?

[turbid oriole]

True, true, for me it’s more so about getting a bargain and testing it do all the different weird features

As soon as I got my new PC I booted up Minecraft RTX 💀

[long briar]

and they have the money for it, what's the big deal?

If only Pixel 9 Pro performance was slightly better I'd have gotten it

but like

half the stuff I have was impulse purchase

[vapid smelt]

people care about flag ship phone performance?

[long briar]

between a single generation, yes.

I currently daily a Pixel 8

[turbid oriole]

Ofc, cause you’re gonna do 3D renders on it nonstop

[long briar]

between a Tensor G3 and G4 there's almost no difference in performance, and the Pixel 9 series costs more

the issue is that it isn't flagship level performance

[long briar]

nonstop isn't the issue

it's that when you need to encode a video last minute or if you need to get something done

the last thing you want is a system hang

[turbid oriole]

Imma be honest I’ve never ever had to render anything on my phone

Except like trim a video, but even that was literally a second

[long briar]

you're the person who just said 4090 is unjustifiable and backed it up by referencing teens who buy iPhone 16 pros

meanwhile people who actually use 4090s:

I've only ever built one system with a 4090, and that was for an engineer.

[vapid smelt]

engineer not smart enough to put together a pc?

[long briar]

preferred to pay someone who can put it together properly

definitely smart enough to put together a pc

just didn't want to

also engineers are not as tech smart as you think

they know a lot about very little

[manic torrent]

Pffff.

I know a lot about a lot.

I mean, I only design cranes as a hobby, but hey.

[long briar]

you're an anomaly

[idle nymph]

everybody*

(this is a joke and shouldnt be taken seriously)

[wise tundra]

We use that class cards for AI workloads at work

Well machine learning would probably be more accurate

[wise tundra]

Depends what engineer

Wouldn't expect a civil engineer to be tech savvy

[long briar]

meche, cive, and cheme are generally not tech savvy

[half pewter]

I'mma hit my roommate with an hp pavilion side pannel. Now I gotta go through and find out how to get ride of a web browser redirect

[wise tundra]

Most electrical engineers I know happen to be tech savvy, and I'd expect a software engineer to be tech savvy. If they ain't, idk what the hell is going on

[half pewter]

-_- I am never letting my roommate use my PC again. I'mma just say f it and reinstall windows

[manic torrent]

You never should have in the first place

I wouldn't even let my wife use my PC 😄

is ps4 controller good for pc gaming?

[modern pier]

youtubeslop

does anyone actually use youtube emotes

[surreal kernel]

No

[manic torrent]

If you want a controller, sure. But a controller is always going to be shit for most games that can use a mouse and kB

[fossil frost]

let me guess, its a night you had planned out to do something for yourself too? because, kids always seem to choose those nights to be ill 😄

[manic torrent]

Was haircut night

[river wigeon]

Why is a fresh install of windows such a bad experience now. God the setup process is awful

[surreal kernel]

Just say no to everything

[river wigeon]

Well yes but also that's not possible

[surreal kernel]

Say no to everything it allows you to say no to

[manic torrent]

I switched my laptop to the Linux. No regrets.

Hey Alex what's consent?

Why are you asking me this

[full fossil]

Don't worry about not knowing

[full fossil]

Microsoft doesn't either

ubuntu

[proud estuary]

what does this mean for users who are already bypassing tpm

No Windows 11 update to 24H2 and no security updates past 2026

ah, upgrading in a few months anyway

[thick stirrup]

[novel siren]

Sup people of the tech world

[dusty stone]

Just grabbed a new X870e Strix from Microcenter. Hyped to swap out my old board

[surreal kernel]

Im sorry for your loss

[dusty stone]

?

What does that even mean?

[main wasp]

F in the chat boys

[surreal kernel]

Buying a super expensive strix motherboard for uhh like 0 difference?? I mean mabye better io ig

[dusty stone]

It’s not super expensive (to me), improvements to memory performance, USB 4, Ethernet upgrades and WiFi 7, improved VRM performance…

[surreal kernel]

Doesnt wifi 7 have horrible range

[mint yacht]

Sorry but this is ltt
We are the ones that give buyer's remorse

For example
'improved VRM performance' is a moot point considering just how gigantically overbuilt X670E boards already were

[surreal kernel]

Yea

[dusty stone]

I have 2.5Gb internet at home and wifi 7 APs everywhere. It’s amazing. And yes, I forgot the LTT crowd is mostly kids with no money.

It’s 18+2+2 with improved cooling

[surreal kernel]

2.5gig Ethernet is a pretty standard feature on most half decent new boards

[dusty stone]

Thought it was a place for enthusiasts

[mint yacht]

No no, you gotta build up a name for yourself as someone who can just buy expensive things and be ok with it, like 5nail5 does

[surreal kernel]

Enthusiast doesn't mean we cant criticize tech

Or criticize purchases

[mint yacht]

Still though, 18 phase vrm for CPUs that hardly peak 250A under load is kinda funny

Makes for funny benching boards though cause you can run CPU subambient without a heatsink on vrm with ease

[surreal kernel]

What exactly was ur old board anyways

Ask in tech chat heh

[smoky badge]

lol

[mint yacht]

What?

14700k suffered depredation issues due to a microcode bug that has since been fixed

[smoky badge]

Probably the stupidest question I seen all month

[surreal kernel]

Also if ur unlucky you could have gotten one with a manufacturing defect

[mild violet]

Hi guys. I'd apprechaite if yall reviewed this budget 1080p productivity and gaming pc. $750. The 5600 I'm getting costs 104.99 from microcenter so ignore the price for that on the list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3Pz3VW

[surreal kernel]

Fyi you can change the price in the list with the configure button

[mild violet]

oh fr?

[surreal kernel]

Yes

[vital oak]

honestly i think you could go am5 with that money and not change anything else

[polar fern]

Me when printed instructions come in 5 point font

[vital oak]

Thats not you

[smoky badge]

[vital oak]

oh wait youd need to change the ram to ddr5

[mild violet]

with a $750 budget?

[vital oak]

if you try, yeah

[fossil frost]

or when manufacturers of a product that is mostly black, print its power requirements, in grey, directly on black... or when the new router comes from the ISP, and their shitty printing process for the password is light grey on white 😄

[mild violet]

im tryna go for new parts tho lol

[vital oak]

you can get a ryzen 5 7500f for like $100 on ali

[mild violet]

nahhhhhh im too american for that

[vital oak]

.5000 series is not new

[mild violet]

new as in not used

[vital oak]

that.. thats not used

thats new

[polar fern]

Looks like a decent list. What’s the issue?

[vital oak]

??

do you have the capability of reading

[polar fern]

?

[sharp parcel]

do you think the rx 590 is worth it ? i have a r5 3600 and found the 590 for arround 120 bucks

[smoky badge]

no

[vital oak]

no

[surreal kernel]

Hell nah, not for 120

[mild violet]

im not a big "gamer" i just wanna run some games from time to time bro

[fossil frost]

you can get an rx6600 for not much more than that, maybe even costing around that

[smoky badge]

Save up your money

[prime solstice]

I want to get myself some pc parts that I know will work for me and the games I like playing but then I’m scared of showing it because i might get told to change it a few times but then again once I finally figure out what parts I might get I might share them though I am staying with the same case I currently have

[polar fern]

@mild violet spec list looks fine.

[vital oak]

i was just telling you you could get am5 with that type of money, i have am5 and i dont play any games other than extremely light titles

i dont even have steam installed

[sharp parcel]

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/sapphire-nitro-rx-590-special-edition.b6421 this one btw

[mild violet]

whats a good list

[polar fern]

The one you linked

[vital oak]

your list is good, you could get am5 with that money is all im saying brother

[fossil frost]

its no longer supported by AMD isnt it? im pretty sure that they stopped issuing drivers recently

[sharp parcel]

they stopped ?

damn bro i be living in 2019

[mild violet]

nah no problem just wondering what i could get in am5 with $750 - $780 budget

[sharp parcel]

thought the supports was from 500 series till 7000

[polar fern]

Am5 needs a newer board

[vital oak]

a ryzen 5 7500f

[vital oak]

b650m's are not expensive

[fossil frost]

rx5xx support stopped in january

[vital oak]

this is just a ryzen 5 7600 without an igpu, and its way cheaper

like $100 cheap

[sharp parcel]

found a vega 56 for arround 110 , the support dropped ?

[vital oak]

yes

yes it has dropped

[sharp parcel]

is support drop that bad ?

[vital oak]

dude that gpu is Very old

[sharp parcel]

damn

[fossil frost]

you wont get any security/feature/performance updates

[polar fern]

These are older gpu’s

[vital oak]

brother needs security on his gpu

[fossil frost]

drivers are software, same as any other software, they have bugs, like any other software

[sharp parcel]

beside that

the ryzen 5 3600 doesnt need an upgrade right ?

i mean it doesnt pass 4% usage lol

[vital oak]

a pentium ii doesnt "need" an upgrade

if it works fine for you it does not need to be upgraded

[fossil frost]

it only NEEDS an upgrade, when its no longer suitable for what you want to do with it

[sharp parcel]

https://www.ecs.com.tw/he/Product/GraphicsCard/N9500GT-1GDR-F/specification i am using this as a display adapter for now

[sharp parcel]

what about 5500xt ?

[polar fern]

My Lenovo has a ryzen 5 3400G 😎

There’s a 7600x bundle at microcenter for $299.99 with a mid mobo and 1 stick of 16GB ddr5 6000 mhz CL32.

my old lenovo had an athlon ii x2 b24

[vital oak]

brother's entire company of lenovo has a 3400g

[sharp parcel]

the 3600 feels like day and night difference

[fossil frost]

currently supported

[vital oak]

wow

[polar fern]

My Lenovo is from 2020.

[vital oak]

his Lenovo

[sharp parcel]

what i am looking for is a card that is supported by windows 11 and id say game at 1080@60 on some titles

i dont play much

[polar fern]

Rx 6600 should be fine

[fossil frost]

depends on the games, 5500xt is effectively an expensive display adapter

[sharp parcel]

nah

found it for 160

[fossil frost]

6600 or 6600xt is lowest i would consider getting if you wanted to play any games

[vital oak]

no it isnt

[mild violet]

I heard it’s not worth it. What if I buy it and refund the mobo

[vital oak]

thats you

[vital oak]

i Dont know im british

[mild violet]

lol

Ew British

[fossil frost]

yeah, thats why i said,, >>> I <<< would consider getting...

[mild violet]

jk

[sharp parcel]

i am mostly playing like competitive games

[vital oak]

is that also why you called the 5500xt an expensive display adapter

[sharp parcel]

maybe older titles

i'd play

[fossil frost]

the 50/500 series are always just that, not something to game on, something good enough to drive multiple screens for work purposes

[sharp parcel]

EAFC , Cs2 , tf2 , Metro

far cry 5 id say

[polar fern]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/126614653983?var=0

[sharp parcel]

nevermind tf2 works on anything

[vital oak]

people still game on 970s

[fossil frost]

and?

people still play era appropriate games on a 970.... they dont expect it to be a new/modern card capable of running new/modern titles

[sharp parcel]

i have a 180-200 budget lol

[fossil frost]

should be able to get a 6600 easily for less than $200

[vital oak]

people still play modern titles on a 970

[sharp parcel]

bang for buck

[polar fern]

https://a.co/d/cSTssNM

[vital oak]

rx 5500xt is still capable of gaming

[sharp parcel]

honestly , the 9500gt feels like trash on anything beside 2d

the experience got 50x times when i upgraded from 10 to 11

worsee*

[polar fern]

Is there a specific reason you’re using older/lower end cards?

[sharp parcel]

euuum

testing if pc's work

i am paranoid

[polar fern]

That may come with its own issues.

[sharp parcel]

i couldnt think about gaming since like past year or so

so my pc was just laying arround turning it on like 2 times a week

do you think the 6650xt is worth adding a little bit more ? @polar fern

or is there better on nvidia side ?

[fossil frost]

yes

[sharp parcel]

no nvidia competitos with better performance at that price range ?

[polar fern]

I have a rx 6650 xt. It’s great

[sharp parcel]

i could add til 250 , idk how much the 6650xt and i am okay with used

[fossil frost]

not in the price range no, nvidia cards, for the same performance, are generally more expensive

[sharp parcel]

i want the most performance , and i am on a 550w psu btw if that helps

[polar fern]

Ouch

[sharp parcel]

6650xt costs over 250 ?

[fossil frost]

the 6650xt is the same card as the 6600xt, but amd refined the manufacturing process, allowing for higher boost clocks and higher memory clocks out of the box... effectively, gold standard 6600xt's that have been oc'ed at the factory

[sharp parcel]

so the 6600xt is enough ?

i think imma go with it

170 is a good bang for buck btw

[fossil frost]

my son has a 6600xt in his machine at my house, he plays similar games that you listed earlier on, specifically, he mostly plays EAFC. and its plenty

[polar fern]

The 6650 xt typically has a better cooling package

[fossil frost]

they run cooler to start with, even if they have the same cooler as the 6600xt. because of the refined process node

[polar fern]

Mhm

[stray path]

Woah
i used to have that cpu

It ran extremely hot and was very slow

Literally 90 degrees with no OC

I remember recommending my friend like the very first AMD APU's over Intel at the time
Like C-50 or E-350

Pre-benchmarked

Upgraded to a 5600x that runs at 61 degrees
i think the cooler was very broken

How much does a used 3060ti cost for you?

Hey, I got a question for someone who's got a floatplane LTT sub. I'm a teacher and was blown away that Linus got away with his Comp TIA video. I pulled all his "artistic renditions" into a study guide to give to some of my students. I was wondering if the Floatplane extras would be worth a $5 sub for. Like if they had any other questions in there I could snag. >:)

[sharp parcel]

300

[long briar]

CAD?

[sharp parcel]

290-340 euros sorry

[long briar]

woah that's wayy overpriced nvm

used?

[sharp parcel]

brand new

the 300 ones are like "powercolor" and "galax" and "zotac" , the msi and asus ones over 330

[long briar]

I wouldn't recommend buying previous generation cards new...

that includes the 6600xt and 3060ti

[sharp parcel]

you think buying used is safe ? never bough anything used tbh

i mean my friend did buy a used gpu back then i remember

[worn pulsar]

wassaaaaaap

[split swift]

I disagree, if you can get one at a good price, I'm all for getting one

[sharp parcel]

gtx 650 like 6 years ago for 30 dollars lol

[long briar]

if you can find a new one at a good price, chances are its a scam

used will almost always be cheaper than new

[split swift]

I never said new, I said a good price

[sharp parcel]

i never bough anything used bro

[long briar]

then what are you disagreeing about lmao

[long briar]

used is fine

[split swift]

I looked over the new part

[sharp parcel]

my psu is a "xpg pylon 550w" is what im using

if that helps , using a r5 3600 (65w)

[long briar]

that was the entire basis of my statement

when x is this, then y

if you ignore x, you don't get the y

[long briar]

if you're unsure then just spring for the 6600xt, it's not a bad card

[sharp parcel]

ive beeen finding some old cards like the 2060 super / rx 5600xt for like sub 200 euros price on marketplace , do you think it's worth ?

[silver sun]

271

[sharp parcel]

all i want is 1080@60 stable gaming

medium-high is doable

[long briar]

6600xt minimum

[sharp parcel]

ok

hopefully it's dual fan max

[sharp parcel]

"Rx 6600xt 8gb xfx swift 210"

Just watched LTT video about Framework. Went to https://frame.work/fr/fr/products/laptop13-intel-ultra-1/configuration/new to check the offered configurations. The tab in Firefox uses 70% of my i5-9600k and 15 to 20% of my RTX2060. Framework's website is pretty awful

[hot tartan]

I think its just Firefox

[fading belfry]

i never have this issue with any website.

it uses my i5-9600k so much that I started to hear the fan spinning, never does outside of games

[graceful burrow]

Try cnet

[hot tartan]

I just opened this up in edge and my cpu is sitting at around 5% and gpu maybe 2

[fading belfry]

after i close the tab

and I still have 70 tabs opened in Firefox, so Framework website isn't optimised like a charm

[fading belfry]

try moving the page around? It doesn't eat my cpu and gpu directly

[lucid oak]

Rtx chemotracing

[hot tartan]

If I constantly move it, 20

[lucid oak]

I paid for the whole cpu so im using the whole cpu

[fading belfry]

no issues on cnet

[vapid smelt]

Should have went Ryzen smh

[fading belfry]

no but seriously i wouldn't blame firefox, i've been using firefox for years, and aside facebook, framework must have been the only website to eat that much gpu/cpu for a basic page

[fading belfry]

i'm completely happy with what i have

it's been 5 years+ with that computer and it's running perfecly fine for what i do

[vapid smelt]

Until you open a website

[fading belfry]

just this one

like i told you I have... let me check

99 tabs on firefox and no issue

opened framework's website and boom

[fading belfry]

what CPU from 2018 should I had chosen?

[vapid smelt]

R5 2600x then you could upgrade now to a r7 5700x3d

[graceful burrow]

1600af

[vapid smelt]

Oh yes that

[fading belfry]

i had an 2600x build a few years ago, the integrated vega was better than the uhd620 but the CPU itself: 9600k wins

[velvet marsh]

2600x didn't have graphics

[vapid smelt]

Am4 platform wins though

[fading belfry]

2600G?

[velvet marsh]

Not the same thing

[fading belfry]

nah I had a 2400G

but even if I had gone with 2600X, it wouldn't have been as good as a 9600k

[graceful burrow]

It would be better if you factor in upgradability

[velvet marsh]

It's faster in multi

[graceful burrow]

You could be running a 5700x3d

[fading belfry]

i don't plan on upgrading until at least 2029

my previous PC lasted 13 years

not everybody needs the most recent stuff constantly

[graceful burrow]

I'd hate to run a 9600k for another 5 years
The lack of actually decent core's hurts

[fading belfry]

that's the thing, we don't need the same thing, so your point is based on constant renewable cause yes am4 has a longer lifespan

[fading belfry]

it sure as hack lack power to run framework's website

other than that... it works pretty good for what MYSELF does with that computer

[gilded quest]

Yeah but Intel iGPU has quicksync

[fading belfry]

even my 2006 dell e520 and his HDD and Windows 7 could be enough, just for fun I plugged it again the other day and surfed the web and played old games

no antivirus, Windows 7 RTM, no hiccups... just limited to 60hz

[fading belfry]

i don't use that at all, and my RTX2060 is also barely shaken

but just long story short: not everybody needs to upgrade and have a ton of performance

[vapid smelt]

Them 1% lows

[gilded quest]

Sure
But the Intel can be repurposed down the line for a media server

Technically you can do that with the 2400g but the 9600k is much better for that

[fading belfry]

stop trying to make me being sad about my cpu, i don't play modern/competitive games and i have no issues whatsoever with all the tasks i need to do

[vapid smelt]

The 9700k was a sad cpu

[fading belfry]

sold my 2400g build with 16gb and 500gb nvme sata and a brand new PSU (seasonic) to a friend for 180eur, he was happy

[vapid smelt]

A i7 with no hyper threading

[fading belfry]

2 years ago

yeah intel 9th's gen desktop CPUs weren't the best deals ever, but it's a solid platform at least

it's not overheating or having weird issues

my worst choice in my build was the motherboard

[gilded quest]

If I can find one for $50 or less I'll buy it

[fading belfry]

and when I see people used prices for a better 9th gen LGA1151 motherboard... i'm like **** i'm keeping my bad MSI mobo

cause my major bad point is the RAM being stuck at 2667mt/S

[mint yacht]

Why is that

Oh
Oh wait

[mint yacht]

Get better motherboard blease

[fading belfry]

too expensive, people are asking too much for used LGA1151

which LGA1151 mobo should I get ?

[gilded quest]

I wouldn't spend much on one

[mint yacht]

Any B570, H570, Z490 or Z590 board but, only if you can find one for cheap

[fading belfry]

are you sure these are compatible with 9th gen intel cpus?

[velvet marsh]

None of them are

[vapid smelt]

Just get a new platform at that point

[mint yacht]

oops
I had a moment lol

[fading belfry]

MSI Z370 Gaming Pro Carbon

[mint yacht]

Any Z370/390 board should support XMP past what the CPU's memory specification is for

[fading belfry]

yeah but people are asking like 200eur in my country for these

like they've been out -_-

[vapid smelt]

Upgrade mobo> upgrade platform

[gilded quest]

You have to look at second hand listings

[vapid smelt]

Even a i3 12100f that is $85 is a upgrade and can use ddr4

[fading belfry]

that's what i'm doing lol

[gilded quest]

Bruhv

That's too much

[vapid smelt]

What e ew country are you in?

[fading belfry]

i know!! that's why I'll kjeep my crappy B360...

[fading belfry]

a bad one

[vapid smelt]

France?!

[vapid smelt]

I'm going to be rude again you got a overclock able cpu but paired it with a b360?! (Not that big of a deal to be honest I often recommend current gen k CPUs with #60 mobo for mid to low range builds)

[fading belfry]

I didn't get it for overclocking but for the integrated GPU back in 2019

[velvet marsh]

I have a 9900k on a b360

[fading belfry]

i bought the RTX2060 later on

[vapid smelt]

.... Mr money bags bought a b360?!

[velvet marsh]

Yeah it was for a nas build

[velvet marsh]

itx b360 too

[fading belfry]

anyhow, do I really need more than 2666mhz if I play only one game that's from 2008

i don't think so

[vapid smelt]

If you're happy with the fps you don't need to upgrade

[fading belfry]

trackmania nations/united forever, that's all i play

which app should I get to check?

the game doesn't have ingame fps coun ter

[graceful burrow]

Steam lol

Steam has a built in one in its settings

Or just like
Use steam lol

[fading belfry]

thanks testing now

[graceful burrow]

I genuinely thought this was extremely common knowledge

I dig in the settings for every program I ever install

Only seems right to fully understand something before I use it

[fading belfry]

110 fps with the game maxxed out (AAx16)

not exploiting my monitor to its full potential tho

165

i don't know why I don't get more FPS? because of the RAM ? XD

both my CPU & GPU are far from being 100% used...

same amount of FPS without AA

[vapid smelt]

You need more storage

[alpine gale]

MOAR?

[fading belfry]

no but for real, if neither my cpu or gpu are maxxed for that game, what gives?

[vapid smelt]

My god

[graceful burrow]

Some games don't use hardware fully

It's from 2008
It never was built for hardware like yours

It doesn't know how to utilize it

[fossil frost]

needs more cpu

[graceful burrow]

If you want more fps in that specific game I'd recommend asking for tips in communities for it since they'll inherently know a lot more

[fading belfry]

good idea

[graceful burrow]

I figured it would be obvious but you're welcome

[alpine gale]

I wish, but I'm not about to change my platform anytime soon. Need to wait at least another 4-6 years before this PC gets replaced. Might upgrade the CPU to an i7-12700K later though.

[mint yacht]

real
I don't get how people don't do this

[graceful burrow]

Same

It feels genuinely psychotic to not

[fossil frost]

i just took my tumble dryer apart, having no idea how it was put together, or how it works... i got about half way through full disassembly before realising that repairing it was beyond me, and put it back together 😄

[vapid smelt]

Didn't pull the trigger on new thread ripper I see

[alpine gale]

So many people I support don't do this, sometimes because they're not curious, but usually because "there's no time - I'm already doing 3 people's jobs!" so I understand... but also, it's amazing how many times people look at me like I'm some kind of "know it all" and/or "you must have gone to school for this!" when all I've done is taken 10 minutes out of my day to click Edit > Preferences then looked around.

[graceful burrow]

REAL

[velvet marsh]

I'm still working on the 4k price tag lol, I had some unexpected bills

[graceful burrow]

NOT EVEN 10

[fading belfry]

in the game's menu I get 555 fps tho lol

[alpine gale]

Some games tap out at a maximum framerate, regardless of your specs. If you're playing the original TMNF/TMUF from 2008 without any patches / updates from the developer, chances are it's just not going to utilize newer hardware to the max. It's been a long time since I pokked around in TMNF/TMUF code - used to administrate a couple "Fastest / Max Speed" servers from 2008-2012. Good times.

[velvet marsh]

Also

[fading belfry]

the game hasn't received any updates in ... forever

[alpine gale]

Bingo. And it's using DX9 so... it's definitely not going to take advantage of any DX11/12 features.

[vapid smelt]

Hey that $300 saving can buy you 1/3 of a motherboard

[gilded quest]

you need a philips 2, preferably with a longer shaft
also a philips 1 can be useful for m.2 and some motherboard heatsinks

[slender bone]

Thank you

[gilded quest]

wish PCs would switch to JIS 2 as standard instead of philips 2

[ancient saffron]

Say hi! Send a message

or settle on any standard at all, instead of being a mix of american, EU, japanese and other misc standards

[olive stream]

Why does it automatically change to yahoo? Won't that make it obvious something is suspicious about the browser.

[pliant karma]

Something you clicked? no clue it just happened random to me so I can't pinpoint as to why

Though for me I think it was an extension I had back then that took control without my knowledge

[fossil frost]

its always something you clicked on, or some program/game you installed that did it/keeps switching it, its never the browser doing it on its own

[idle nymph]

im from england, feel free to take a shot at the stereotypes... this is the internet, we have thick skins, if we didnt, we wouldnt survive on the internet

[scarlet folio]

Reading up on Truth and Reconciliation day. Wow, you usually don't see governments turn around that quickly on stuff like this. From Wikipedia:
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission, established to document the effects of the residential school system, ran from 2008 to 2015, and concluded that the attempt to forcefully assimilate Indigenous communities was a cultural genocide.

[idle nymph]

Truth is cheap racists jokes can get boring fast

[fossil frost]

specifically, im from the north west of england, the flat cap wearing, greyhound owning, bearly-speaks-english part of england, if that helps you with the stereotypes

[restive lion]

Truth and Reconciliation Commission
had to read up on this for an assignment, it was an absolute shitshow btw

its a miracle they got anything done

[scarlet folio]

Yeah I'm still reading sounds like it was crazy

[fossil frost]

theres a difference between making racist jokes, and having fun with someone.. if you take a look, i never said anything racist to them, i made fun of myself, and the english in general, for having those stereotypes...

[idle nymph]

Yeah don't worry I'm just saying

[fossil frost]

racist jokes are generally quite lazy jokes too, and require very little thought and very little whit, and are effectively just some gammon headed arsehole pointing at someone different to them and saying "LOOK!! THEY ARE DIFFERENT TO ME"... its not funny... making fun of those gammon headed morons on the other hand... no matter where they are from... is very funny

[scarlet folio]

I know in the USA we do land acknowledgements for native populations, but I don't see anywhere that the USA government apologizes for the cultural genocide we did on Native Americans through forced schooling and related things. Best I see is it talked about in museums.

[harsh quartz]

Hmmm, yes, there seems to be some politics in the public chat today.

[scarlet folio]

While the Truth and Reconciliation Commision of Canada isn't perfect, it's good to see that there was some effort made. IMO

[fossil frost]

1. #rules no politics... 2. they will never ever acknowledge it, because it means admitting they were wrong, and admitting liability to the descendants that remain, and thats bad. 3. breaking #rules by continuing this may get you banned

[scarlet folio]

I'm not trying to get into politics. I was told there was a holiday today, looked up the holiday and am talking about the holiday.

Just pointing out an iteresting contrast

[harsh quartz]

It’s a contrast in the politics of the two countries, which is usually not a good conversation to start

[scarlet folio]

I'm not going any further into it

Kinda sad that I'm getting hit for learning about a Canadian holiday

[harsh quartz]

That ain’t why but see it how you will :p

[restive lion]

fwiw these arent mods and if you want an actual moderator opinion you should just ask

[wooden silo]

I only see commentary on historical events and a public holiday not so much a conversation about politics @scarlet folio

[scarlet folio]

Okay, I'm getting hit for just saying that I'm fascinated by a difference without going into merits or trying to solicit or debate any opinions

[restive lion]

personally i dont see anything wrong here

(also not a mod so)

I overall agree with Linus' shadowbanning policies, and don't think I would get hit by him.

I guess when you get down to it, everything is politics. Guess I just need to shut up.

[hard stirrup]

Kinda disappointing launch for X870 and X870E, a lot of features from previous motherboards got shaved, like the number of PCIe slots or the amount of SATA ports

[eager notch]

Wtf did I just walk into

[pallid falcon]

Smile and nod

[eager notch]

Seems like it

Cute

[hearty rain]

I stopped at a local thridt store, a goodwill lol

[smoky badge]

Very

I want one as a pet

[hearty rain]

A local dispensary seems to have shutdown as it has branding of a cannabis payment processor lol

[pallid falcon]

Me also

[pallid falcon]

You bought a pos thing?

[hearty rain]

Why not

I like odd tech lol, I hve so many odd peices of tech

That reminds me, I have a 32 inch android tablet I need to get fixed

[blissful prawn]

One of those interactive whiteboard things?

[smoky badge]

Damnn

[hearty rain]

ok so this is on it compared to an ipad and on an DELL AiO stand

as it's VESA compatable.

this has had an odd history.
IT seems to be a medical device

Are links allowed, I forget, I was in but left awhile ago

[smoky badge]

Yes

[hearty rain]

proceeds to send a virus filled website with 400 advertisments about those XXX sites I keep seeing
Kidding lol.

https://youtu.be/BHyZH-Mg2dE

this is the real use case of the item it's uh

well an android Medical tablet used to show off a persons body parts, usually in 3D, mine happened to come pre-rooted (no SuperSU/Magisk) and hve all this removed, which oddly the main app was called Zygote that locked down the tablet to death. and then the health app looked to be a generic web browser with flash and some other stuff installed

[full fossil]

https://youtu.be/b_NzKXOQWKk?si=FWs-5EAQqUA4Yvst

anyone find this secret out yet?

i scanned over the bench stand on the site and cant seem to figure it out

[hearty rain]

Lol ok this thing really doesn't like anything not in multiple of 5s

[hearty rain]

Its uh too cool?

[full fossil]

well the guy said there was a secret hidden on the bench board, so im figuring it something on it

theres prizes for it as well

heres the file for it

[grim basalt]

hi

[rare otter]

How do I put this in the motherboard

If your wondering why it's so dirty

It's because I dug it out of a dumpster. I turned it on and it works
Just needs a fresh windows install

Because as of rn. It doesn't have an os

Rn tho I'm tryna put in this old ass wifi card

But idk where to put it.

I've never worked on pcs before so I figured it's better to ask people who know

Then to fuck around and find out

[alpine gale]

I highly doubt that WiFi card can even go in modern computers. Connection standards have changed a lot in the last 10-15 years.

[rare otter]

Ok than ima stick to USB tethering then with my phone

It's not exactly needed tho it would make things a bit more convenient since I can use my phone anyway

[strange elk]

Good call, made that mistake and blew my old laptops wifi card up. And I think it screwed up the mobo later down the line

lmao

[narrow island]

Anyone heard anything about all these major network outages currently, verizon earlier and now playstation, Xbox, nintendo amongst others. Cloudflare isn't reporting any potential BGP hijack so far to date

[karmic flame]

Your at least 10 times older than that card

[alpine gale]

Excuse me, I am old but not that old.

[harsh quartz]

Well it sure would be a shame if we could actually see what the card is :p

[twin atlas]

if I want a custom pc case where do i go?

someone help me

[vapid smelt]

You want to spend close to a grand on a case?

[twin atlas]

I mean where would I find a mao zedong themed pc case otherwise. havent found any.

[midnight mulch]

anyone have a great 1080p pc build with amd cpu and nvidia gpu for $500?

[grim basalt]

Nvidia gpu for $500?

[vapid smelt]

You have to go used

[long briar]

Used is possible, new is almost possible

[grim basalt]

Im not much into pc stuff anymore but from my knowledge the only option is like a 3050 or old gtx1080 so maybe go used

[modest lion]

where

i bought my gtx 1630 at 450$

i think it was a good deal

[cunning crescent]

Hi guys !!

[full fossil]

[acoustic coral]

[acoustic coral]

Linus look like he about to cut some christmas trees

[full fossil]

[acoustic coral]

Why is there a surge milker

Wait

[acoustic coral]

Ive seen a table with 50 on it

Ive shot 100 round drum mags

Which btw are a PITA TO LOAD and also are heavy af

I shot my first gun at age 4

[cunning crescent]

What the flip

[acoustic coral]

Yeah, I was taught proper gun safety

At a really young age, unlike most people here

[cunning crescent]

dope ngl

[long briar]

I live in a country where I don't need a gun to feel safe how bout that

[cunning crescent]

I know a gun is a gun and that there's a safety thing

[cunning crescent]

uhm ok? Want a badge 😡

[acoustic coral]

No, I have it for when the Civil War two electric Boogaloo brakes out

[cunning crescent]

lwk might wanna move to a place where gun laws are more enforced

[acoustic coral]

Two of them are I actually have because of the working World War II trophies that my grandpa brought back

Type 99 and a M44

[flat mango]

When I did the tour of their offices, they had a couple of airsoft guns in their props section, I'm assuming it's one of those.

[acoustic coral]

99 is accurate to 2 km

[long briar]

no I want my gold star

[full fossil]

did linus talk about this?

[flat mango]

What's the timestamp on that?

[full fossil]

[shut ginkgo]

Hi

[full fossil]

28:10

Staff try to unionize

[flat mango]

Oh I hadn't seen the FP exclusive, let me check it out

Also I'm in the main channel video for that

[full fossil]

Oh are you the organ donater

[cunning crescent]

U got it boss but just be careful bc around where I'm from any1 who looks like an officer gets shot at so

[flat mango]

No, I was in one of the Whale LAN shots

[full fossil]

ohhh

[long briar]

Bro I look like some random asian dude

[cunning crescent]

yeah they don't care bout race

they js shoot the cops 🧍🏾‍♂️

[long briar]

[flat mango]

lol no he didn't mention anything about that

[full fossil]

Literally said that?

[cunning crescent]

Yeah they do not care, if you look like a cop they shooting your ass

[flat mango]

I'm not sure what you mean, Linus literally did not mention that on our tour

[full fossil]

oh my bad you meant he didn't say a word about his staff unizoning during the tour

sorry my bad

[flat mango]

Oh no worries

[flat mango]

Watching the 4K of the FP exclusive that's definitely some kind of airsoft/BB clone of an MP5 they had in their props. Linus played around with it on our tour and knew how to do the HK slap

[full fossil]

Did you get to see their props for this during the tour?

[long briar]

L bozo ig

[full fossil]

can't say the word

nevermind I see the prop

[flat mango]

If I had seen the FP exclusive before the tour I might have asked

[full fossil]

lol

Oh question did you ask about the tax write off?

[flat mango]

If they ever do LTX/Whale tickets again I'll ping you and compile a list of questions

[full fossil]

lol

[cunning crescent]

😭😭😭

[full fossil]

Try getting on one knee and saying sorry

Also floatplane execlusives make for great memes

[prime solstice]

I thought that was a trailer park boys picture at first

[flat mango]

Linus didn't know Trailer Park Boys was Canadian until I mentioned it 2 WAN shows ago

[full fossil]

Userbenchmark is epic

[long briar]

how it flopped is truly epic, I agree

[full fossil]

Their bravey is epic

[chrome vector]

Wh- why would you want a Mao PC case....

[chrome vector]

You know your benchmark system is bad when even the community you are favoring bans you

[strange elk]

They dont remove anything off of floatplane right?

Cuz I cant afford to get it rn lmao
