criss cross, criss cross
ok fair
but its most definitely disformed
It's almost like DerBaur isn't dumb 😉
i would really want to get my hands on it and cut it in half to make sure
Woot! I have a buyer for my HP Z440 w/RX 580
yay
perfection
mm
i sold one of my computers for like 3hrs ago
Two pin power. That's all we need.
2 pins for 600w
Nice! congrats 🙂
on a cable rated for 100w absolute max
na i do not know how much power it used here
no you dorks use thick wire
enough to make it become spicy
xt90
xt60

i did carry it with my hands and feet for 2km and then take a bus and then a special thingy but other then that it was a fun trip
sim you need a cargo bike.
No car?
im 17
you need a lil wagon
kay?
yessss get a red rider and tie it to your bike
i cant drive
medical reasons?
Just imagining simm hustling around with a cart making it into an electric bike
you cant drive alone under 18
madness
?
aka i cant drive, well a car
I was driving at 15
you obviously can’t drive under 18
how?
where
Let's go prairies!
in the uk u can start a driving test at 16 and fully drive at 17
I had work so it was like drive there or get fired and i was imancipated so if i didnt work there was no food
Saskatchewan Canada
So choices
idk any country you can do it wt 15
i should probs start working on my drivers license
that wasn’t the case for me
you can drive at any age
I owned my own car and was driving at 15... granted, I wasn't supposed to be in the city
technically yes, legally no 😭
how legal is it, we do not worry about that
Shout out to AM PM and letting me abuse their get 3 free things per email a day on the app, they literally saved me
ive drove a dune buggy when i was like 11
i drove a forklift at 14
I drove a go kart growing up and now I drive an automatic with 2 feet
not forklift certified, get out
i drove a motorcycle 30mph at 10
u can stay polar
But are you forklift certified?
I was crane certified, never forklift certified though. Crane can do a lot more damage though
it was private property
i ain’t need that shit
lol
no
yes
how about a plane
H license lets you drive tracked vehicles
that’s not a land vehicle
boat
it is if you try hard enough
that isn’t but i do have a separate boat license
We are going in a WWII battle tank baby!
i sailed to denmark once
top gear made it
The computer that was in the oven booted and runs with no issues
literally 3 days after i got my boat license
i did drive a challenger 2 once
Farm licenses in the Midwest of the US let you drive starting at 14 as long as it’s on the farm or to school
I had to clean it
clean it with fire?
Shake and bake baby
that’s stupid
i would not trust 14 year old me to drive a car
It was a free pc full of dust and tobacco residue causing it to overheat
especially a manual lol
so go outside and blow out the dust
Wouldn't come off
then use gloves and take out all the electronics then throw it in the shower
I did that
The oven was at 105c
30 minutes at 105c it dries the water with no damage to plastic
At 200c is when you have to worry
i see what you did
It works and damages nothing
well
i can
the capacitors on the motherboard tend to only be rated for like 90-100c
just cut off your nose that’ll work
LA awesome cleaner works for smoke
Ram at 105°C 😬
Did that too
its fine if its not in use
No issues
It looks like a brand new board
And I have a 20 year old PC I've done that too multiple times and it's still running
No capacitor issues
actually would make it worse
evangelion mp3 player
what iems
If you buy a professionally refurbished PC they do what I did with mine on a factory level 🤣🤣
im kinda falling in love with the Lian Li A3-mATX wood white case, but i dont think i could be convinced to swap cases from my current build
I started off planning a £400 build, now I have a £1000 list which I'm about to order😭
damn
ur case is way too pretty
send it
man I'd go for that one in an instant if it was available and not pre order only
I can guide you on a 400 build and keep it DDR3
send it?
Part List - AMD Ryzen 5 7500F, Radeon RX 6700, Asus Prime AP201 MicroATX Mini Tower
no.
not in the UK
Getting a shit tonne of horizontal lines on my OLED monitor equidistant to each other... screen cleaning seems to work fine but not sure what the issue is?
Part List - AMD Ryzen 5 7600, Radeon RX 6700, Asus Prime AP201 MicroATX Mini Tower
7500f sucks major ass
can you explain why?
monitor overpriced
they had a much more pricier one on
yes but the one you chose was also expensive
waiitt why do I need a peerless assassin to cool a 7600
what does everyone think about QDEL displays?
its a cut down version of the chip with oversll shitty performance
What???
Does anyone think they are actually gonna supercede oled, or qd oled?
That's the 8400f
arctic freezer is sufficient
ye
Is this thing supposed to be tilted
yes
Yes
Thanks
7500f is just a 7600 without the igpu and tbf a tiny tiny clock reduction that you will not notice
Yua
Any ideas what these lines are caused by on oled guys?
buying a £700 pc and getting a £150/£200 monitor doesn't sit right with me
rtings places the AOC XMN as best budget HDR
feel free to disagree though I'd like to hear your opinion
Ir just looks like the background design
It’s not
what does google say?
hdr is kinda mid imo, the monitor is rather overpriced for what you are getting
dont know check your cables
It’s not burn in, looks like refresh issue?
try changing resolution looks like every other horizontal pixel line is not being displayed
I’ll see
take a screenshot in windows
Replace the cable
Horizontal lines on an OLED monitor usually indicate a problem with the display panel itself, often caused by loose or damaged cables, a faulty connection, physical damage to the screen, overheating, or even a failing OLED panel
no, its hardware
fair enough, I've never experienced it personally so I can't really know whether or not it will be worth it

ive looked at hdr and its barely a difference from normal
I’ll test shortly
interesting
i mean i have a hdr tv right next to me and switching between them barely has a difference
change resolution
Yup
hdr is horrible on an LCD
Depends on the quality of the lcd
I've just seen Mini LED/OLED Vs IPS comparisons and it's always shocking the difference, so your advice is surprising
and the hdr standard.
No change...
damm
I'll check shortly with cable anyway
I'll look into it more
does your monitor have a reset option
It largely depends on the amount of dimming zones
LCDs have none
it’s all one large backlight
they use one backlight
that’s wrong
a traditional LCD doesn’t have dimming zones
they’re referring to mini led
next time don’t believe the first ai answer you get
Chat whats this weird sphere thing in my car
get a second opinion
where is this picture?
like what part of the car is this
The back
where in the back?
they are shitposting
the trunk the back suspension?
tf is that pic
i thought it was something like that i just wanted to be sure it was a car
Lol
nice
chat i need help. how much should a high end gaming pc cost at the most?
would a $1000 pc be considered a high end gaming pc?
it be like that, dw
a little on the spectrum, those coolers
no
Does anybody have any good Fishtank cases? i was thinking about the Be Quiet Light Base 900FX, but the price seems kinda steep for what im getting 😮
Ok I think I know the cause MAYBE
I think it's caused by my equaliser
guys does ps5 controller have compatability issues with windows?
you need to download and install ds4
hmm,i was going to order a ps5 controller but many people said me that it have compatability issues
or u gotta use it wired
xbox one better
i [personally find ps5 controller better in looks and feel
i see
@tidal geyser On the right side of my screen I have an equaliser that constantly bounces a lot based on the sound playing through my PC. Do you think that could've been the cause of the lines?
also, if you get the Xbox USB dongle, u can connect it seamlessly to the pc and also update its firmware and co
i like the buttons on the ps5 controller ngl. havent found another with similar ones
The lines look to be almost the same distance
i see
agreed,something when i hold em feels different they are smoother and cleaner
damn,ur monitor looks cooked
I fixed it but trying to find cause
Looks like OLED might not like equaliser
happy u were able to
looks like it lol
you can update the ps5 controller on pc aswell btw. just needs a bog standard usbc cable and a programm from sony
yeah but it kinda has more steps
whats ur budget wireless mouse recommendations btw
just curious
no, you just start the programm and it updates
gotta find and download it first
https://controller.dl.playstation.net/controller/lang/en/2100004.html one google search away...
Explains instructions such as how to connect your controller to a device other than a PlayStation®5 console or PlayStation®4 console using Bluetooth®.
Heyo just wondering can I daisy chain 3 0.3amp fans for intake and connect them to my only fan header on a B350m bazooka motherboard?
if the mainboard supports up to 0.9 amp on that header, yes
i think most motherboards can do 12v 1amp
legit reason for someone to get a 5090:
my dumbass project refuses to render since it runs out of VRAM, deadline is in 7 hours at 8 AM. I have no solution for this right now.
Want to use a VM?
how much vram do you need?
Thanks for the offer but there is 10 isch TB of files that are local on the pc
Ah yeah that’ll do it
if you need an RTX 6000 Ada deployment with 48GB Vram though let me know, i can get rdp creds with like a tb of storage
uhu 🙃
Anyway im just venting right now, i should be able to figure it out so no stress (yet)
holy shit that is so nice of you, thanks!
ada a6000?
what would be a good cpu for this build? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BGnqPJ
Part List - GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, NZXT H9 Flow ATX Mid Tower
If someone is looking for a kidney its reachable, but otherwise nah
arent they like 10k isch?
not used
but it looks like it might be a memory leak
do the basics of disabling plugins not really in use or known to have issues
Yesbox, troubleshooting right now
m very good
Turns out i don't need 24G for the BF16 ver of the video model
Though shit is getting offloaded so hard all the way to pagefile
Somehow it's not affecting generation speed
Probably doesn't use that much active layers
Heavy models for image generation still need vram though :(
hi people
greedy
When i already got my own device
amen
no free?
thinking of making a new build, but I'm not sure whether I should go with
beefy am4 PC
or
entry level am5 pc
beefy am4
Greedy is when I don't wanna give money to big tech
I self host everything
the r5 7600 is like a r7 5700X3D aka the best gaming cpu on am4 you can get
self host the world
life is a simulation
Free ones are either shit, or shit and lobotomized
but yeah i am trying to do the same thing but i need to port forward but cant :§

or even Intel (core i5 13400f) but I've been advised against it
damn, which one do u use
I do have a GPU, but it'll kinda be a bottleneck no matter what cpu I choose yeah
hmmm?
I'm not sure whether I should make a post for a quick question
Grok's mid ever since they no longer use flux
just the Intel one
its not a quick question
your going to ask about EVERY single part in the pc and make something that takes 5min take 5hrs
not really
just the CPU
no
ok
I'll make a post
you would need to think about motherboard and ram and power use and cooler and and and
I just wanted to know opinions of other people and PC builders
my usb card has fucking coil whine
but yeah I could discuss everything in that post then
good thing i sold a computer 4hrs ago
like a regular flash drive?
how does that
what
hell yeah
brodie just got paid
laws of physics
also hallo guys
since when do flash drives have coils
that's brand new information to me
thast has coils
ohhhhhhh an expansion card
yeah, it does really high power
anyways, ever been under massive power lines?
I'm pretty sure Mehdi from electroboom has been under one recently
@rigid fjord Yo my OLED’s finally showing signs of dying maybe
RMA maybe soon
what
These horizontal lines seemed to disappear after 2 refreshes and enabling G-Sync but I’m thinking the actual cause might be the equaliser on the right side of my screen? Do you know if OLED is susceptible to stuff like that from something as simple as that?
its not
first time i have seen a OLED do that
The horizontal line issue disappeared after refreshes so idk. Then it showed itself coming back but then I disabled the equaliser and it went away
Maybe placebo though
wtf
so when you turn off the thing that is causing the issue the issue stops happening???
so why do you think the OLED is dying then????
dead would be not working
thats dying
well if it was a hardware issue it would be
its software
Wdym
plug a different computer or laptop or something to do
then you know it is a hardware issue and that should also come without saying try to replace the cable too
There’s only one way to test software and that’s to turn off and on the monitor
Since the monitor has its own boot up screen
no???
That boot up screen should have the lines if that’s the case
I’m basically isolating the issue where I can
no your not
…
i am not going to explain to you the basics of a circuit as its over 1am
You don’t need to
in short there is more then just the bootup screen to a monitor
Im aware
the thing showing it is doing it directly to the monitor
while anything that goes in will go trough more stuff
I just can’t test different cables easily, my cable management recently was done and sealed essentially so would be a pain to fix
so in short get a laptop or another pc and test
cant you reach behind the monitor
… I can but again, very difficult since I have only the 1 display port cable
its like 5-10$ for another one
In win 11 this sound feels like %100 on windows 10 is that normal? i cant go above it it hurts my ears
I did 2 monitor cleans and the issue went away
should i delete my headphone drivers and download again
So it’s… weird
What’s the output?
My headphones
Do your headphones adjust volume too?
obviously i can hear from them since i said its too loud :d
clearly your system has a very good amp
yeah i'm using around %25 on that
I have b450m-a pro max board its probably one of the worst boards not sure why it acts like this though
Like I already said though, this isn’t possible since my PC is the only PC in the house
No laptop, nothing
that doesnt exclude it from having a really good amp
The only other DP cable is plugged into my other monitor via very complex means too
i mean does the audio sound bad at 100%
No its still clean
or 8%, sorry
that's remarkable
what headphones
Cheapest headphones i could buy like 3-4 years ago its called gamepower stylus 7.1 or something
they're headphones? figured they'd be iems
god damn that's hilarious
Worst looking headphones but the quality is nice of the sound thingies
cheap b450m-a pro motherboard having better amp performance than 500 dollar audio tech is comical
I have behringer umc-22 but i only use that for guitar currently
I'm planning to get a studio headphones so i can use it directly from sound board
Whats better the galaxy fit 3 or cmf watch pro 2?
Just a quick question, it is possible to clone/transfer my old 2.5 SSD OS drive into a new m.2 drive? is there any risk or it is risk free? and if so, it is easy to do it?
it looks fucking great
holy hell i want one
planning to replacing my 2.5 256 gb ssd to a nvme 1tb.
Yes, you’ll need them both plugged in though. There’s tutorials on YouTube and the process is fairly simple. It takes time
Is there anybody in here that has rx 6800 and 650 watt power supply
I have an RX 6800 and a 850 watt PSU
Thank!!!
By the way any chance i can test if my power supply really 650 watt? cause its non branded i dont belive the +80 tag and all
No worries
i love nothing
my problem is power consumption but thank you
Ok talk to me, I had the same issue
if you have any idea would be nice
My 6800 was pulling half the wattage it needed sometimes
“But the power supply” be the meme, put a psu on the back of the gpu and a socket for it on the backplate
Having power problems mostly it doesnt take much power when it takes my usbs get deativated and all
most likely power problems*
It’s an issue with Drivers/the card itself
I had the same problem… the issue would resolve if I launched another GPU intensive app
ooh what causes though its really annoying
i'm needing to limit my fps in games cause of that
I don’t know, AMD didn’t know either and i couldn’t be asked to RMA
But I resolved by launching say Stable diffusion - maxing out my gpu. Closing, and then launching Overwatch
Went from 90 watts to 200 watts by doing that
it’s a really fucky GPU
And now it started that when i power pc on it doesnt dedect my mouse but only mouse
i wonder if all drivers fight each other
OH wtf
same thing when i do furmark for a while the thing goes away
i bought it like a week ago :d
It’s baffling really and eventviewer logs, runtime logs, Adrenalin logs gave ZERO answer
Speak to Vendor and RMA or refund
Also is it MSI by any chance?
Gaming X trio?
Man i love amd but everytime i bought amd cards i had problems i had like 5-6 HD series cards and 4 RX series cards everytime i had problems
Worst one was rx 550 though nothing comes even close to that there was a wattman problem on that (thats what they said to me)
But i also had problems with nvidia
lots of them
I have broken lots of lots of graphics cards
But nothing was as good as 9800GT that card was different man
I bought that card with so much joy at the time and used it for a long time it was such a good card
any of y'all ever heard primer 55
i saw
no you didnt
NO
oh
i want that
it sounds fucking incredible too
give me that right now
gets really loud (500mw on the 4.4bal port) and it does like 32bit 768khz
got $320?
why is it so expensive
its like almost an salary here :d
really good hardware + it's an official evangelion collab
have you seen the price of RADIO EVA stuff?
no let me search it up
meow
150$ for a shirt is crazy
idk what to listen to on here
putting my entire playlist on here will be hard unless i port it to qobuz or tidal
lullabies
nirvana's lithium sounds incredible
listening to the abc song on the evangelion player
genius
i should totally listen to the OP
Man i wish i had one
I think i can make myself one though
Let me search up old ipods
apparently an older revision had a picture of the hospital scene built in
whoose scene
0 or 1's pilot
1's pilot, the hospital scene in end of eva
Oh the non movie ending?
the movie ending
end of eva
the shinji hand scene
end of evangelion is the movie ending
can confirm the eva OP sounds fucking incredible on here
Oh with asuka?
yes
mine didnt come with it :(
I think i'm gonna get old ipod and paint on it
valid
how do i fix?
I can do that scene but i was thinking more of doing that poster with shinji and asuka looking at the head
movie ending scene
i'm saying it had that image built into the gallery app
that's good yeah
Wont be this detailed thats for sure but something like this would work
maybe characters a bit bigger would be it
80s anime gang
evangelion is late 90s
looks old as shit
it literally doesnt
nah too old for my liking
You should see really old shows with not good studios you cant imagine how bad they are evangelion was really good
evangelion was pretty ahead ngl
i hate old artstyle
i think it competes with 2015 stuff, give or take a few scenes
they did remade movies if its too old for ya but i would prefer original tbh
got it
the remade movies honestly are really good
im sure remake was same face structure etc
me when i pointlessly ragebait
last 2 episodes roflmao
For me i dont agree with that i cant get the same feelings i'm getting from original show
The depression loneliness and all so freaking good at original
its peak for me
i agree 100%
but the remakes are very good
the original is better sure, but the remakes are less depressing
the best description i've heard is: "it's the same, but the characters make better decisions"
But not saying originals are bad though its not a bad remake just not same for me i wouldnt look at them same in any time
i have seen so many bad remakes this is not one of them though
yeah the remake is killer but the original is better
Man how is old ipod more expensive than newer ones thats crazy
bcz they're better i bet
its also better for me but wasnt expecting this
pls help
no
probably you have already so many parted names for it or something
is my cpu being damaged? this is a different game im playing
Try deleting all(only the ones on that drive) and making them full as a new drive @hybrid zinc
if its possible
only 1 way to know, give it to me
i hav data on them
actually?
cant you move them to another one you havve space after that you can copy back?
hmm yea ig ill do dat
doesnt those cpu has P and E cores? using P cores for intensive work like games n such?
and is that windows drive? if not delete g also make them all one drive after that partition it maybe
I also get something like that in games like valorant and cs is it a big deal
yeah? idk
yea, only because its 14th gen
ive update all the bios tho
@somber mason I am thermal throttling though i should tell you that first
it could be cuz intel 14th and 13th gen r burning them selves
🥱
damage done cant be reversed
as my moms laptop just fucking died too, what should i get her, she said around 600 usd, another laptop or pc?
does she need laptop?
maybe ask her
ive only had this chip since after they patched
i mean she dose some of her work there
i updated bios immidently when i got it
not like that does she need laptop spesifically or dekstop
well she only uses it in her room, usually laying with it on bed, maybe another laptop is good, but every single laptop she buys, it dies 2 years max, and she barely touches it oo
unless u have GER
if brand new, sounds fine
germs? ew
yeah definately get her a laptop if you use laptop like that you cant go back
im hygenic
no lol a jojo term
Where do you live
i didnt watch jojo
unfortunate
yeah, its anoying tho as last year she had her a 700 usd one, and that broke too 😭
get a thinkpad (NOT E SERIES)
Going to do stickers
she hates lonovo for unknown reasons
What causes it to broke? what is the problem maybe get into that first
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Hey guys, me and the boys wanna start pc flipping, so anyone wanna bet on how many seconds it will take us to fail
it got a better cpu than my old 1400$ laptop
41K seconds
shoulda been cute anime stickers smh
nothing, she didnt charge it in two days, like usal, but when she pluged in the laptop, it started to feum up, most likely some sort of blown part, or not idk, bit the charging port blinked 3 times everytime i press the power button, i could give u the model number if u wanted
oh its out of stock XD
So like, 11hrs?
Maybe check your grounding
maybe
wat laptop did u get
So I realized that the guy that is going to do the stickers for me goes to the stationary to print them
Imagine getting a pdf to print that says I love Latinas 😭😭😭
the power button blink can mean something

Or should I grab a 3080
3080
4060 is a total piece of shit
Good to know lol thanks yall
ok so if ur power button is blinking 3 times it may mean ram failure
I need a 2 fan one I don’t see any 260mm 3080s how’s the 3060?
I don’t think a 360 mm card will fit in my atx

i heard about it, i think
I’m not in the uk so no
i've used them a couple of times for a few things
alright, thanks guys appreciate it
going with the A3 over an ap201 I think
shame they aren't stocking the wood black version, oh well
alr well i opened it
well see for ur self
ig i can see where the smell comes from
wher
Well lemme try that
WAIT WAIT
disconnect the battery first
and use all plastic tools on ur motherboard
Yeah 😅
except screwdrivers ig cuz plastic aint tough
Coffee and Tea
what
iim gonna
I love steam not being greedy
this fucking top battery screw is not going off
u dont have to unscrew the battery
jst disconnect the battery connector
oh yeah i forgor💀
lol
drilllll
Yes 🙌
wtf
hp
thats why i hate em
well found my problem, i dont hink its fixable if the ram is fucked
is it the ram behind the plate?
use a electric tool or something idk im not a electrician
how do you know
whats the issue?
try turning it on and see where it explodes
pwoer button blinks 3 times
that can be literally anything
it worked yesterday fine, but then when i tried to charge it , it blonked 3 times in the charger port , and the smell might be coming from the ram idk if its normal or no tho
oh
so ram might not be fucked
then...
literally anything could be wrong
what can i do
do you have a multimeter
whats blonking
leme bring it
idk how to use it to test tho
best take it to a repair shop
meow
i have it now
ram?
storage
bring it on baby
Now
Well what do we start of then..
am hecka lost
fcuk
well i pluged it inot the charger one more time, and then the ram area start to fuem
Well a MOSFET is likely fried
Then is auto cut, then now it burned the ram
Tbh MOSFETs should have indicator on chip
To indicate good and blown

You mean the burned spot doesn't say enough?
maybe its burnt internally, like me 😔
well
idk i booted fro a split sec and then i toched the power cable and then it shuted off so i think the charger is fualty cuz the laptops battru was dead
Try using PD, throw that thing away
yeh
tf is taht face
Disappointment
yea i am disappointed in that face
hmm
idk it will connect fin for like 5 secs and then like the power cuts out from it
i have another usb c charger and it had a light on the usbc end, after 5 sec the led indecator on the laptop and the charger turned off
so is this isnt a charger problem
is it the powering inside of the laptop that is fucked
You know what else is the problem and is fucked? This segue... to this sponsor
am goign to try till i fix it, it booted for a couple of secs so its not over yet
Is this Asus gaming laptop?
nice gif
well i have made one note, everytime i remove the ram sheild, the pc boots on for a sec or two tho
it is
Dgpu type? Or igpu?
igpu
well
um, idk at this point
its not blinking anynmore
soo, i have zero idea whats going on lol
Juuust, bring it to technician
Wait what country first?
Ahh yeah that's a bit exp side if us
fuck fuck fuck
i pluged in the charger and white smoke came out
ig ill go to technician now

Gonna be me the next few days
I've got to break a world record
For a competition between me and a freind
Cept. Its an uneven playing field. Im working with a gen older.
should i use a server distro of ubuntu or would regular ubuntu work for a little homelab/server
So I just got myself a pair of viture ones and they arnt showing up on my phone (samsung) or windows pc even with the app installed, the electrochromic glass works when plugged into my pc
Rate the setup
I love that windows feature where it destroys everything it touches
I'm trying to copy some files from my windows partition to my linux partition but linux can't open the NTFS partition because it's out-of-spec (Microsoft doesn't really explain to Linux devs how to open it, so rip)
I run chkdsk and it finds damaged files... I run it again, to fix it, and it can't find the damaged files 🙃
now I have to reboot windows four times in order to perform some updates it found. and in the meantime, Windows has decided that I need to update my BIOS with a borked version from Dell. now my laptop is bricked because I tried to copy files
I'm keeping it in a VM next time, I swear
awesome PC !!
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, i have the same laptop dude, lmfao
I miss the older toshiba satellites
they made perfect personal defense weapons
especially with the models that have hot-swap lead-acid batteries
not particularly.
shits like 300 pounds
Hear me out.
Waterblock + 6900XT Oct at 1300w
80% ethanol coolant chilled to -40c
Performance ?
Imma do it
until the ethanol eats the rubber orings
Yeah
I was thinking use diesel instead
thatll eat your tubing
im pretty sure diesel will also eat the o rings
Basically next to none
does the corsair hx1000i support pcie 5.0?
Probably but for a few oc runs I think I should be okay
why even do it
just feed the diesel before putting it on smh
its pretty stupid tbh
Somones got me challenged
And I feel like breaking a wr to prove a point yk.
I could just buy a pot.
Pots are expensive tho :(
80% ethanol would be dangerous due to the very low flash point
If I use fuel lines instead of regular tubing. And a vehicle fuel pump and fabricate all metal fittings and use proper seals it would make for a funny setup
is it good or bad that my pc smells like burning plastic?
Bad
What I bought:
512ssd for external
256 SD card(cold store)
Mounting points
Controller
Idk what I was thinking, but having no extra internal slot got me upset a bit

@rigid fjord This is the replacement of the refunded ssd
I am sure of the ssd this time as I bought this ssd a year ago, SP A55
nice
Thnx 🔥
Is there supposed to be a fan on this?
yes
Ok thnx
tryin to upgrade my pc pretty soon bc i got it early 2022, was thinking of getting a new cpu (if so any recommendations?) and if i do get a new cpu, should i get a dedicated cooler for it since i am currently using the stock fan the 12400f came with? my monitor is lowkey chopped rn so im probably gonna get another monitor so dont clown on it
whats your budget?
excluding the monitor prolly below 300 but i dont wanna go too overkill, just enough to be worth the upgrade as i am usually running 90-110fps on most of my games
300 usd?
yeah
so this screenshot is your current setup
yea
tbh i dont know much abt 2k 4k or 1080 but i mainly wanna upgrade because i want to enjoy my story games like red dead, and assassin creeds etc at above the usual 90fps i get
so i mean i guess yeah a bit 4k i think
yeah im looking to get something that can support 4k monitor wise
if you wanna game at 4k and get OVER 90 fps itll probaby take more than 300
oh sorry then i think i meant 1080p
u could sell your current gpu and use all of it to buy something that would get u there but 300 wont be able to
at 1080p u could upgrade to like a 3070 or 3070ti and get higher than 90 easily at 1080 but thos will both run u over 300
well not a 3070
could get that on used market for 300 maybe cheaper if u can haggle
3070ti will get u well over 120 at 1080
maybe around 144
but thatlll be like 400 range could talk someone down cheaper if u can find it
idk if your brand loyal or not tho
ive seen 7800xt going for around 4sum in my market
not rlly idrc abt brands like that
ill look into tho thx
yeah if u really wanna upgrade id say sell your current gpu first then go big so you set for a while
like a 3090 or 4080
try to get 300+
that gpu looks like it got hit with map gas
my nvidia titan x comes tomorrow
it got smothered in money
Hi my PC isn't turning on after I changed the cpu cooler and I'm really afraid that I somehow killed the motherboard, but the fans that are connected directly to power supply aren't turning on either, although the power LED does turn on. HOw can I troubleshoot this?
is the 24 pin plugged in
is the 8 pin eps plugged in
did you unplug anything not related to the cpu fan
I had to take the motherboard out so yea
did you plug the power button wires back in
The cpu power ones?
I did
back in to their respective pins
are you certain
that EVERYTHING is plugged in firmly
not good enough, go back through and check again.
physically touch and check the connectors, not just glance at them
Also feel free to post photos of each connector/socket on the mobo
Wait I think I put the LED and power wires in the others places
welp
and this is why we physically check.
man, gave me a heart attack
The manual had the missing pin on the botton when from my perspective it was on the top
that's what puzzled me
Do you ever wonder what it'd be like to be a worm
just kinda scootin' around, eating dirt
Think about it though
no thoughts
no worries
three things: eat dirt, poop, and worm around
Honestly. If I woke up a cat tomorrow, I would love it. Being human is annoying.
Sometimes a creature will pick you up, and bless you with a journey to a whole different soil type
What is that thing in the air? WHY IS IT COMING DOWN TO ME?!
yes but worms cant see
no
I think about this a lot, too. Being a cat means you get to be an asshole to humans when they don't feed you on time
also, sun baths
Worms don't have eyes like we do, but they can sense light and darkness. They have specialized cells called photoreceptors on their skin, which help them detect changes in light intensity. This ability is crucial for their survival, as they prefer to stay in dark, moist environments to avoid predators and dehydration.
Damn, weird way to come out as a furry
yeah this, thanks chatgpt
And you weigh like nothing so you can go wherever the hell you want
If you think about it, their way of "seeing" is quite fascinating in its own right! 🌱
What sparked your curiosity about worms?
Nothing really wrong w/ it but whatever i guess
Yeah
oh hi copilot
I'm not believing it til I hear what Claude has to say
omg just think about all of the urban exploration you get to do as a cat
i just watched the "i can die now" video and at the end it says that they sort the chips into the i9 i7 ect... and so is it possible to get a "i3 or i7" chip with i9 capabilities
Hear me out, snake
What if you wake up as an indoor cat but you're in a hoarders small apartment
snakes can't jump, doofus
Escape, find a loving person and get them to adopt you
Friyay
They little worm things tho
The definition of goober
A personal goal of mine in life is to have a cat harness trained so I can take them around on my bike in a little basket
I don't trust my cats to handle that
and we can go on little adventures and camping trips
My personal goal is to be known as the mf with 15 too many cats
sir thats a balloon
No it's a snake
as someone who's had 12 cats, no.
Here’s a snake
Fair
thats also wholly unfair to all of the cats because there's no way in chicken titty hell that you're gonna equally love them all
Also fair
I’ll get a bigger bed for them to lay on next to me
nvidia...?
I got mine their own beds where they can sleep next to me but also look out the windows and I can't roll over on top of them
May family has one that looks just like that cat and it’s a goofball. Once knocked over the coffee pot to the floor and was seen licking up the coffee
some cats weirdly like coffee even though it's so bad for them
Even tho the beds I already get are big enough probably for at least 10 cats
Caffeine is a drug so it makes sense.
Too many pets
I currently live with just one dog, tho a little while ago lived with 3 cats
I just have these 2 weirdos currently
She has adhd i think
2 couldn’t care less about me, and the youngest of the bunch would cry at my door while I was trying to sleep because they insisted to chill with me
kinda but it's great for catto
360mm cat warmer
Probably not
Just gotta be more regular with dusting
nah if anything the constant airflow is gonna blow all the cat hair off
Does oobe bypassnro not work anymore? 
No work
It gets in around the edges where there's less air
But i don't mind
Ngl prob
Whats worse is the scratches he left on my oled monitor
