yeah, that was a total shitshow šŸ™‚

#

There’s a reason the bleeding edge is called the bleeding edge

white pawn
#

how old is your trusty old computer?

primal cairn
#

5 years old

#

I didn't buy bleeding edge

white pawn
#

what the hell have you been doing to it that you are worried it's suddenly gonna fail? i have spindle driven hard drives from the early 80s still working perfectly

#

and floppy drives, and floppy discs

primal cairn
#

I can still crash and lose my stuff, What's the point of not getting better hardwares if the alternative is also the same

white pawn
#

i mean, unless you have hardware that is know for high failure rates, you shouldn't even be approaching their MRTBF, unless you have been running it 24 hours a day without fail for 5 years

white pawn

#

You can also test the health of drives btw

Starting this year off the right way, with a flu :)

i mean, have you tried a format and reinstall using the OS>Restart>Updates>Restart after each>Drivers>restart after each>Programs method? that will resolve a lot of stability issues(not all) in software

Hi

you can actually lose a level if you die too much, so it makes you really learn the game

white pawn
#

i mean, the fact that it took this long to get that you had an actual hardware problem kinda feels like you are farming for somethin

if so, can you point it out to me? cause i don't remember that, and i can read the chat

harsh quartz
#

I can’t

primal cairn
#

Anyway I have many reasons for building a new pc

#

I was just asking what ram and storage should I get

#

If anyone has a recommendation

#

And somehow it went off to this "bleeding edge" argument

white pawn
primal cairn
#

Nvm

#

This was one of it

white pawn
#

if ya want ram and storage recs, Corsair is great ram, samsung is great for SSD's and WD is generally the go to for spinning rust

hardy kiln
#

No lol

#

Corsair isnt great RAM. On ddr4 especially

#

Ddr4 was a c-die mess on it. Especially LPX series

steel marsh
#

also early corsair ddr4 didn't work on early ryzen

#

some ddr4 kits did and some just didn't

hardy kiln
#

yep

steel marsh
#

g skill and team group for ddr5

#

so long as its hynix dies

hardy kiln
#

Klevv also and kingbank

steel marsh
#

ye

hardy kiln
#

Teamgroup, kingbank, klevv only use hynix dies

white pawn
#

but you do have a point on that

steel marsh
#

g skill also hynix dies though make sure to check

steel marsh
#

they do

hardy kiln
#

90% uses hynix . It can be micron

#

Most are hynix now

steel marsh
#

my trident z neo rgb is hynix

#

g skill does use hynix

hardy kiln
#

Thats confirmed hynix

steel marsh
#

ye

hardy kiln
#

Corsair uses hynix/samsung/micron

steel marsh
#

ye

white pawn
#

and i'll admit, i personally like micron over hynix, but thats cause of anecdotal reasons more than anything

hardy kiln
#

Why get worse die on ddr5

white pawn
#

i have yet to have a micron based set of ram just up and die on me. i have several sets of hynix that are currently being used as part of art installations in my house cause that's what failed hardware ends up as here šŸ™‚

tired glade
#

I mean,ddr5 kinda faster

white pawn
#

like i said, totally anecdotal

#

then again, i;m also a psychopath who only cares about real world performance, so i don't benchmark anything either šŸ™‚

#

to me if it isn't human noticeable it may as well not exist for gaming

Is there anything like the car thing that ISN’T the car thing?

#

Like, just a lil screen for music settings

#

I kinda just want a Dynamic Island in windows ngl

#

There’s a couple for macOS (free and paid, but none are official), but it works well

balmy tiger

#

Doesn’t windows already have that?

balmy tiger

#

There’s the control panel thing, usually shows music/audio/playback settings

balmy tiger
#

It's called the Quick Settings Menu

#

It's not an equivalent of Dynamic Island

#

I don’t really care what it’s called, and they asked for ā€œa lil screen with music settingsā€

ddr4 is strange with micron

i wanna get some c9blm rev e

you only have 2 micron ics on ddr5 pretty sure

#

and i have 1 of the 2

white pawn
#

hey, can you point me to anything talking about the issues with micron ddr5? so far, i'm not pulling anything up looking for "Micron DDR5 speed issues" and related searches

#

i am however seeing a lot of things saying basically don't use any ddr5 in 4 stick sets

#

we have ddr5 6000 cl28 kits now and it can literally only do ddr5 5400 at cl40

so, like i said, when i buy ram that says its 4000mts ram, and i put it in the system and it starts out at 3200, id say thats downclocked

turbid oriole
harsh quartz

white pawn
turbid oriole
#

Like, my ram starts out at 2666 for some reason but its base rated speed is 3200

balmy tiger
turbid oriole
harsh quartz
#

2666 is the base rating, 3200 is the 3rd party overclock rating. It can still go higher, sometimes, but it’s not rated that high. And it’s the 3rd party who would be responsible if it couldn’t hit the 3200, due to the base standard being the 2666

graceful burrow

#

It's the JEDEC standard

turbid oriole

#

so yeah, it's overclocking with the caveat of it's semi guaranteed to be stable :/

But yeah idk, buying a separate small display would be at least 20-40$

I finally did something I should've done a long time ago. Uploaded all media from my old phones to my pc.

white pawn
#

have to say, its really weird, cause when designing/making processors, you already wanna run everything at the highest level it can sustain for the MTBF. so overclocking was always like "oh, if they wanna kill it earlier, that's on them"

the computer probably has 1gb of ram tbh. i dont think itll be able to run a vm in windows 10

mortal birch

Looks like XXclone might be an option

sonic spruce

so only option is cloning, do you know a good program to clone a hdd to another hdd @viscid elm

welp i am going outside for the firework

white pawn
mortal birch
#

Sounds like its used specifically for a piece of software.

#

Which is the only reason to use an old windows like this.

white pawn
#

ahh, yeah, just got to that part

mortal birch
#

If its just to keep the hardware running - not a good enough reason.

white pawn
#

altho, im curious what they are using, has to be very inhouse custom if it won't run in a compat layer šŸ™‚ unless he's stck on original hardware anyway

mortal birch
#

Compatibility layers are tough, they don't always work and if they are asking about cloning software, it might not be their wheelhouse

Really? What if your router got a firewall & you install firewall on XP(or at least don't disable the built in Windows one like the stupid "how long untill virus on XP"-video) - Maybe browser that don't give out your OS fingerprint helps as well? batman_hmm

white pawn
mortal birch

Would just install linux at that point.

white pawn

no joke

If its just to browse the web

Looks like you can drop to a 6600xt 2nd hand for <200 quid. Its not gonna be as performant and you will need to upgrade later to play newer titles, but its your choice.

Tbh I would avoid coping at all cost

#

You were not allowed to connect to the network on our towns LAN Partys, if you didn't have Antivirus installed on WinXP back then either to be fair

compact oracle
#

i have a question im thinking about changing the gpu should i get like a 4070 or the rx 7800xt or rx7900gre anyone knows whats the best and whats with amd these days ?

sonic spruce
mortal birch
#

If you're looking at changing (i.e. you have a gpu already), I would wait unless your current GPU is stopping you from playing a particular title that you're friends are currently playing.

mortal birch
#

5000 nv and 9000 amd are just around the corner this year (yup I'm in 2025 already - I'm from the future)

I'm like your big bro

compact oracle

yea haha im just looking for a upgrade over the 8gb ov vram

rigid inlet
#

Tbh my pc isn't amazing but it plays what I want, the only thing is that I would probably grab more of is storage whenever some goes on sale

I got super lucky and got a 3080 with 12gb, apparently this thing is like rare

dreamy knot
#

Asus Radeon RX 6700 XT DUAL 12GB GDDR6 opion???

compact oracle
#

idk nvidia doesnt like more than 8gb 🄲

mortal birch
obtuse junco
#

Nvidia wants your money lol

compact oracle
#

is there still any problems with amd in the new 7000 series i havent had a amd gpu yet

dreamy knot
mortal birch
#

If you can get it for a good deal its effectively the same as the original new one you posted.

#

6750 isn't much faster

dreamy knot
#

yeah

summer folio
dreamy knot
#

and what cpu would u say ??

mortal birch
mortal birch

#

alright

for east north ppl in europ HAPPY NEW YEAR RN !

sudden gazelle

Happy new year UTC+1

dreamy knot
#

and mother bored

#

???

rigid inlet
#

The cheapest one that has what you want

dreamy knot
#

yo
so my current pc looks like a Asus Radeon RX 6700 XT DUAL 12GB GDDR6
with a 7600 cpu
what mother bored would you suggest

rigid inlet
#

You using WiFi or ethernet

dreamy knot
#

wifi

#

i could do ethernet

#

if i really have to

#

looking for a good mid range on price

#

i am working with a 750gdp buddget

#

atm i got the gpu for a steal

#

????

dreamy knot
#

could u answear my question

silent sierra
#

dam no respect

#

chill bruh

dreamy knot
#

hes judging my english

#

no need to

silent sierra
#

be the bigger man then

dreamy knot
#

i am just trying to get some education on what i should look for

#

mother bored wise

mortal birch
#

What you have selected seems fine.

#

The MSI motherboard b650 chipset with wifi is fine.

dreamy knot
#

alright

mortal birch
#

Would always recommend wifi as even if you use an ethernet cable it can be used for troubleshooting/using a hotspot when your internet is down.

dreamy knot
#

should i get it used or new

mortal birch
#

Also someone laughing at "looks like" is funny because you said current PC (as in you have it in front of you, so you should know) - not because your english is off.

dreamy knot
#

ohhh

#

i see

mortal birch
#

TBH if you have a geek friend, dude go 2nd hand all the way (except SSD/mouse and keyboard)

dreamy knot
#

got it

mortal birch
#

You can save a good whack of cash if you go 2nd hand.

rigid inlet
#

Tbh second hand storage isn't that bad (for like a game storage drive nothing else)

mortal birch
#

Mouse and keyboards are kinda non negotiables in my eyes - I've worked customer service; people are gross.

dreamy knot
rigid inlet
#

I've repaired quite a few mice and keyboards

dreamy knot
#

can u add some of the parts?

rigid inlet
mortal birch
#

Its because you smear your fingers and hand on it, compared to tapping away.

viscid elm

mortal birch
#

Thats what he originally had on his build.

viscid elm
#

#

its cheaper and the same performance

dreamy knot
#

viscid elm

viscid elm
dreamy knot
#

viscid elm
#

but yes i can change the psu to a a650bn if that makes it easier for you

dreamy knot
#

please do

viscid elm
rigid inlet
#

tbh youll be surprised what you can do with a 550w psu

viscid elm
#

a 7800X3D and 4090 with a monitor uses like 500-600w when gaming

dreamy knot
#

like would the thing run with that power suplie well gaming

viscid elm
dreamy knot
#

whats the diffrenece

viscid elm
#

the 7600 comes with a cooler and uses less power

dreamy knot
#

oh

#

thank you for that

viscid elm
#

i also have a TLC ssd

#

the motherboard is a bit cheaper

dreamy knot
viscid elm
#

i can try and find a ATX board

dreamy knot
#

like this

viscid elm
dreamy knot
#

thank you so much for helping me

dreamy knot
#

with that and the other one

viscid elm
dreamy knot
#

alright

#

and would this preforme well in game

#

like above 200 fps on games

viscid elm
#

I can't guarantee anything when it comes to fps

#

But yes this computer will be the best you can do with new parts

dreamy knot
#

alright

bitter glade
dreamy knot
#

eg fortnight on preformence mode

viscid elm
#

I would image it should be able to

bitter glade
dreamy knot
#

bitter glade
#

I think I get around 500 with a similar build to yours

#

I have a 7600x 3060ti

dreamy knot
#

bitter glade
#

I don’t have it rn

dreamy knot
#

bitter glade
#

Just follow what sim said ull be fine

dreamy knot
#

viscid elm
#

Your list is going to be better then his in terms of price to performance

dreamy knot
#

alright

#

i am trusting you in this

#

ill oder hopefully in about next 6 months mabye 4

#

bitter glade
#

Damn linuth

viscid elm
#

You can also look for a used ryzen 3000 or better consumer desktop computer

dreamy knot
#

rn i am using a rog g17 asus

viscid elm
dreamy knot
#

3050rtx and cpu-5000 7

viscid elm
#

Can you say that cpu name again?

dreamy knot
#

5k seris and ryzen 7

viscid elm
#

But that config should be able to do close to 200+ in fortnite performance mode if I am not mistaken

dreamy knot
#

nah

#

pushing 144

viscid elm
#

Make sure the laptop is in gaming mode or max performance mode

dreamy knot
#

165 max

viscid elm
#

All low at 1080p in performance mode?

dreamy knot
#

let me check

#
