[gloomy sleet]

depends what theyre doing

[delicate zodiac]

Gaming performance

[gloomy sleet]

in quite a lot of scenarios a 14900k will be better

[gloomy sleet]

then the 9800x3d is obviously better

[rigid fjord]

tbf there's only 1 game that requires an i9 to play otherwise it loses in gaming to the 9800x3d easily

[rare musk]

stylized name aint got the shit to be the boss

[delicate zodiac]

Ofc and this guy is arguing that Its not he has tech in name and this is his only video on profile

[junior valve]

it adds up , 1.5cm = 150 more watts

[rare musk]

lol

[delicate zodiac]

These guys with tech in their names on tiktok are so dumb

[rigid fjord]

that black mark is what lets me know that there has been arcing happening on the plug and socket it was in, btw

[junior valve]

yea i saw a spark

[delicate zodiac]

If you want to cringe out just download tiktok, make your for you page on tech and just look at comments

[rigid fjord]

was the psu switch on when you plugged it in?

[rare musk]

now get to the gayming

[delicate zodiac]

gayming 😂

[drowsy flame]

I got a free 7% upgrade by overclocking. That’s kinda nice lol

[junior valve]

yes

thats on my old rm850x shift

[drowsy flame]

Yikes. Whenever you plug in PSU the switch should be off

[trim idol]

Not going to be the end of the world if it isn't

millions of computers exist without PSU switches at all and they're all fine

[drowsy flame]

Yeah true but it’s best practice

[trim idol]

It's less best practice and more like "eh... if its there may as well"

certainly not "yikes" level

[drowsy flame]

Also before opening my side panel I always shut down pc, unplug psu, and turn the psu on and off a couple times to hopefully discharge capacitors.

[rigid fjord]

that could do it

[rose stream]

That... Sounds typical anywhere. Lmao.

[gleaming rose]

may get a wxga projector, 3100 lumens for like 37 bucks

[trim idol]

Uh... damn... mayve relax a bit

[drowsy flame]

It could be, if there’s a power supply malfunction when it’s being plugged in it could dry other components. Not common but has happened

[gleaming rose]

mate my side panel is always open

[junior valve]

the psu still works so we good

[drowsy flame]

You should seek professional help

[gleaming rose]

I've hotswapped sata drives before

[trim idol]

we're talking "being killed by a sloth" levels of likelihood

[junior valve]

hows the connectors looking?

[drowsy flame]

Hot swapping sata drives is wild though

[gleaming rose]

linux didn't detect them until a reboot iirc

[gleaming rose]

i mean it wont hurt anything

[trim idol]

at any given time, I'm running 3-4 computers without cases.

heck, I used to run systems in datacenters on flat rack plates without cases.

[trim flicker]

hi mom

[harsh vector]

It was unticked but it still reset my profile inspector settings

[delicate zodiac]

Ye but sometimes there are arguing people that doesnt know shit about it and they have tech in name and if you look at their profile there are only videos about how they need to help with something

[trim idol]

hei hei kiddo

[rare musk]

idk then

[drowsy flame]

I don’t even like my pc being plugged in with the panels off. I might be paranoid but the power supplies in our computers are no joke. The power they can produce is seriously dangerous. They can even discharge the capacitors after they’ve been unplugged. Just because a power supply is unplugged doesn’t mean it’s safe.

[gleaming rose]

i mean computer components are designed for that type of stuff
there are more protections than i could count on 100 hands

[junior valve]

the outlet side sometimes got loosen and make a spark which then my pc shuts down

[drowsy flame]

This is from 2012 but

https://www.techspot.com/news/50474-teen-electrocuted-while-salvaging-parts-from-a-computer.html

[trim idol]

That's the power in the PSU, though. The 12V power coming out of it isn't that juicy

[viral nexus]

change your outlets broooo

[gleaming rose]

dont touch a fucking capacitor

moral of the story

[trim idol]

For example, you can take a car battry, which has way more power than the output of a PC PSU and grab both terminals

[gleaming rose]

working with some components is fine

like hard drives, maybe even unplugging a wifi card or something

[trim idol]

Yeah, just don't open up the PSU unless you know what you're doing.

[gleaming rose]

oh he opened the psu? well no shit

[viral nexus]

or atleast discharge them before fucking with them lmaoo

[trim idol]

or that

[trim flicker]

i cleared up my room and i got a ton of space now

[gleaming rose]

this isn't a nice thing to say but he fucked around and found out

psus arent designed to be opened

in other news i licked a 9v battery for the first time yesterday and it sucked

[drowsy flame]

Agreed, but components do malfunction. Being willy nilly with 120V AC being converted to hundreds or sometimes 1000+ watts in a gaming pc is not a smart idea if you value living. Maybe 99.9999999999999999% of the time you’ll be fine opening the case with the psu turned on and plugged in but I don’t wanna take that risk.

[gleaming rose]

i mean the psu is the one with those scary components

everything user-facing will be 12v

[viral nexus]

i remember

i was trying to test a fuel pump

[trim idol]

You need to actually take some classes and understand these things so you don't just operate entirely out of fear and misunderstanding

[viral nexus]

with a car battery, and i held the wires with my fingers

and burned myself really bad

we love the smell of burning skin

[trim idol]

sweaty?

[viral nexus]

maybe?

then again i dont thing youre supposed to be holding bare wire to car battery terminals

[drowsy flame]

This is also true, but that doesn’t mean that the PSU is safe as long as it’s unplugged. It doesn’t mean the PSU is safe as long as you don’t open it. It doesn’t mean that the computer is safe in general to goof around with unless you know what you’re doing.

[brave brook]

there is literally one section INSIDE the PSU you have to open with a screwdriver which can deliver shocks. Nothing else

[trim idol]

I think what happened there is the wires weren't making a good connection and heated up. You can litterally grab the terminals right off the battery and feel nothing

[brave brook]

this is like saying a toaster can kill you if you drop it inside a bathtub you are in... Sure, it can, if you disregard all safety

[trim idol]

12V 600+ amps

[drowsy flame]

Why not turn your pc on and lick the vrm’s on the motherboard and get back with me.

[trim idol]

Generally speaking, you can't feel anything under roughty 32V

[viral nexus]

maybe, all i know is that it burned me really bad

didnt shock me, just burned

[brave brook]

do you even understand how current and resistance work?

[trim idol]

sounds like the wires heating up due to bad connection, tbh

[viral nexus]

yeah

[trim idol]

that's why you can walk into a car parts store and the batteries are sitting there, half with no terminal covers, all within reach of toddlers... because 12V isn't dangerous to touch

[brave brook]

12V at body (or even wet tongue) resistance is unable to deliver current which would harm you. At worst you would feel the same effect as licking a 9V battery

[drowsy flame]

Yes. I also understand that every year electricians die because “the power was off” on whatever they were working on. Electricity kills people. I’m not arguing that everyone who doesn’t go through extra steps will be killed. I’m saying it’s better safe than sorry.

[brave brook]

the capacitors which shock/electrocute you inside a PSU hold voltages over 400V in Europe

[viral nexus]

car batteries are just weird

you can touch both ends and feel nothing

but you can weld with them

[brave brook]

because human body resistance is too high for current to produce any noticeable effects

[drowsy flame]

It’s not just voltage. Voltage itself isn’t dangerous. It’s amperage.

[livid fern]

Gpx/ 3.0 on 90V and below kaboom
🙂

[viral nexus]

im not stupid, no offense

[trim idol]

We all understand that

but really, its wattage that kills

[viral nexus]

on another hand

i <3 blowing up capacitors

[brave brook]

but again, body resistance. 12V divided by 10k ohms is 1.2mA. At 400V, is is 40mA. 6-30mA is painful, 50+ is extreme pain and actual powerfull shock.

[trim idol]

But those pesky caps in PSUs are at 120V because they put the caps in before the voltage drops to make it so they don't need high-amperage caps

[viral nexus]

or really anything electrical that just goes boom

[brave brook]

1mA is a tingle at worst

[drowsy flame]

12v at 150 watts (average PCIE 8 pin connector) is 12.5 amps. Which can definitely kill someone.

[viral nexus]

ez

[brave brook]

but you don't understand what 150 watts is. Those 150 watts, 12.5 amps don't go through your body.

[trim idol]

This

[viral nexus]

another thing to add onto this

[drowsy flame]

Your skin has resistance yes. I understand this. Everyone who has taken a basic electrical course understands this

[trim idol]

You keep not listening to my battery example. A car battery is 500 amps at 12V... and you can touch them

[gloomy sleet]

nice

[livid fern]

I lick car batteries

[brave brook]

not saying don't disconnect PSU if doing something in computer. But unless you literally drop your full metal screwdiver into a PSU which contacts the wall power side, you are not going to be hurt. You at worst kill your computer

[gloomy sleet]

thats what you see when you click it

[viral nexus]

yeah

just middle click it

[gloomy sleet]

thanks

[elder quarry]

why is there a difference between genders?

[drowsy flame]

Also, 0.007 amps is technically enough to kill someone if it makes its way into their heart and interrupts the beating pattern.

[viral nexus]

its not my graph ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[brave brook]

this whole debate reminds me of people misunderstanding temperature vs heat 🙂

[elder quarry]

lol

[trim idol]

Yup, an AA battery has the power to kill a person

[drowsy flame]

It can introduce cardiac arrest or cause severe arrhythmia

[rigid fjord]

reasons why the top part is said by me

[trim idol]

skin moisture levels

also, skin thickness

[drowsy flame]

Yes. Smart. ^

[gloomy sleet]

try and do this

[trim idol]

No one here is advocating opening PSUs. you're talking about not opening the side panel on a PC with the PSU on

[trim flicker]

i'll test it out on you

[gloomy sleet]

ok

[trim flicker]

k

[trim idol]

You just have to attach the leads to your heart

[trim flicker]

simple enough

[viral nexus]

i remember hard modding my xbox a long time ago and i shocked the shit out of myself on the psu (literally and metaphorically)

not very fun

[gloomy sleet]

well now thats the hard part

[trim flicker]

nah i'll just cut thru

[viral nexus]

^

[trim flicker]

dont struggle too much

[brave brook]

to be fair, with the idiots installing CPU with case standing normally (and destroying the motherboard and CPU in process), i wouldn't want those people to play with screwdriver and screws over the PSU. Having said that, most PSU these days are installed facing downwards, so no way for screw to drop into the PSU anymore

[viral nexus]

this sounds like the linus fanbase alright

lol

[gloomy sleet]

the difficulty is keeping them conscious and not killing them in the process

[drowsy flame]

I’m just saying if you want to be as safe as possible you shouldn’t. Will it probably be fine? Yeah. If anyone is willing to accept the extremely small minuscule insanely unlikely amount of risk then sure go ahead and do whatever it’s your life and your computer. I just like to play on the safe side.

[trim idol]

I mean, crazy shit is always possible

[brave brook]

the biggest shock i got (tingle) was because some stupid person in apartment complex grounded something to heating pipes

[trim flicker]

dw

[trim idol]

It's literally 10,000x more risky to drive a car

this is such a weird hill to die on

[trim flicker]

i dumped half a psu into my right arm by turning myself into ground

it hurt

i touched power and ground pins and the voltage and current stored up from the caps went back and into the wire and into my arm

[drowsy flame]

I don’t disagree here either. I’m 10000000000x more likely to die in a car accident but that also doesn’t mean I wanna take unnecessary risks. It only takes a few seconds to unplug the PC and discharge the power supply by clicking it on and off a couple times. Not that hard to do. Maybe it’s a little overkill sure, y’all don’t have to do it though.

[viral nexus]

wtf

[trim flicker]

if im doing a full dissasembly i do this

[brave brook]

in short...
Cable TV wiring caused some potential difference, which traveled into my PC, which then went through USB to my aluminum keyboard. So when i was touching the keyboard and put my feet on the heating, i was feeling slight tingle in my hand. I removed my foot from heating, tingle gone. In the end i got a galvanic separator for the cable TV line while i was living there. Ground loops are evil thing

[trim idol]

I've been hit by electricity so many times I can't even count them all anymore... Never by 220v, though. I think the worst was 60,000k through my thighs.

[trim flicker]

static discharge idc abt tho, i wear fluffy socks and hoodies all the time when building pcs

[outer musk]

Can anyone recommend me an rgb controller for my pc ?

[rare musk]

any that fits to your needs should be enough

[outer musk]

A name or link ? i want to control the rgb lighting of my fans and cooler

[rare musk]

just any my man

[drowsy flame]

Depends on what fans you’re using. If you’re using a specific brand fans check if they have one and use theirs is probably best.

[green crown]

Software?

[outer musk]

Nope i mean a phisical one

[drowsy flame]

What fans are you using?

[green crown]

But cant u get a software or do you want physical

[elder quarry]

what happened here

[outer musk]

Signal rgb messes them up and i can't control them i need a physical controller

[rare musk]

i farted

[outer musk]

Aio with rgb pipes

[abstract wigeon]

try openrgb, if not try signal rgb if not give up

[drowsy flame]

You’re using signal RGB wrong probably. Change the fan models in settings.

[outer musk]

None of them worked

[drowsy flame]

Check in the signal RGB discord

[elder quarry]

what is happening to the world

[abstract wigeon]

Imagine you are Nvidia and have purchased shit loads of TSMC yields for B200, but now the market doesn’t want that much B200, and RTX40 is retired……The only solution is to make as much RTX50 as possible to cover the unused yield of B200

could be. What do you play and what's your GPU and what's the cost?

[regal forum]

im talking about apks from the internet, that isnt from a playstore app

it works?

[true stirrup]

I know

[hollow stratus]

I play a mix of different games. Like cyberpunk, overwatch, zzz, tf2, Minecraft (with big modpacks and shaders)

As for gpu, I have a 7600XT

[trim idol]

Then yes, that X3D cache will make a definite difference

[hollow stratus]

And 32GB 3200 Mhz

[thorny saddle]

me too

[hollow stratus]

Although I lowered the speed since I always get a memory overload blue screen upon my first startup after shutting down

[trim idol]

esp in minecraft and cp2077

alright, thx

[hollow stratus]

I could try and find a 5800x3D but idk if that's worth it compared to a 5700X3D

[trim idol]

I've heard talk that the difference is negligible

[hollow stratus]

Then the 40 to 50 euro difference is not worth it

Also I was told my 7600XT is not worth it, that I was dumb buying it

[ionic robin]

what is the format called

[trim idol]

who knows...

[mellow shadow]

Ask chat gpt

[trim idol]

maybe look up on Know Your Meme

[ionic robin]

I asked it about the font in this and it gave me the wrong one

trust me I tried

[trim idol]

I don't even know if there are official names for meme formats

[gloomy sleet]

idk id buy it for £20

[ionic robin]

[ionic robin]

12 dollars and fifty cents

[trim idol]

so... just do it?

[ionic robin]

I don't even know the font

hold on imma try and search it

[trim idol]

why are you so hung up on the exact font?

the whole point behind memes is that they're quick and dirty

Hello, Im hope someone with knowledge in raspberry pis / ethical hacking could give me a hand?
I want to make a "bad USB" with a Raspberry Pi Pico W, (this will be used for education purposely only)
I dont know wether to get a Pi Pico 2 W or a Pi Pico W (1). I want wireless to be able to remotely add the ducky script, and it needs to work with the pico ducky code/framework.
Thanks!

[elder quarry]

yuck!

[trim idol]

This is whack. In CP2077, XeSS scaling does worse than no scaling (on B580)

[elder quarry]

why

[trim flicker]

its my pet

[frozen temple]

its my first hardware project, im excited as im bored of js making python projects lol, i plan to 3d print a case for it enclosing a adapter. As my local libary has a printer

[tidal geyser]

[frozen temple]

montech case?

[trim flicker]

corsair

[tidal geyser]

you need to get gpus with 4-5 video outputs

3 is just sad

[elder quarry]

uh, just sayin', I would use micropython or circutpython for that

[frozen temple]

thats what i plan on doing

[elder quarry]

oh i see

[elder quarry]

me and my friend are developing a macro board with simple ui, we can't use badusb due to the suspicion

[frozen temple]

nice

[elder quarry]

It's very weird if a random terminal appears

[elder quarry]

I'm developing the software, I can ask for some firmware, but he's using the usb_hid library with probably adafruit_hid.keyboard library. I would not import the keycode library as it's a bit fun learning stuff like that (like that the letter "a" is 04 (0x04) in base16"

[tidal geyser]

i love reddit and r/blackcats

[elder quarry]

I recommend buying from https://thepihut.com if it's near you, I bought 8 picos from there and it was cheaper than my local one even after shipping.

[frozen temple]

i think im gonna get it from aliexpress

[elder quarry]

nice

[elder quarry]

you know how picos with python work?

[vivid parcel]

Hi sorry to butt in but i have a quick question that i need answers for,
got a 4070 super windforce oc, that per description needs a 16 pin power connector, now on the GPU itself there's a 12 pin connector and not a 16.
In the box there's also a cable merger from a 2 8pin into a 12 pin, is it safe to connect a 12 pin to 2 8 pin from the PSU to that merger into the GPU?

[rare musk]

same shot

[tidal geyser]

yes

also pic of the connector

i feel like you might have gotten a rtx 3000 card

[rare estuary]

How

[tidal geyser]

thats 16 pins

[rare estuary]

Uh that's also nasty

[vivid parcel]

i can count 12 tho (?)

[trim idol]

wapow!

[tidal geyser]

4 pins in the thingy under

[rare estuary]

🤮

[trim flicker]

wdym how

[trim idol]

yes, it is safe to use the adapter that came in the box

[vivid parcel]

oh those are pins, thought that was a locking for the connector

[tidal geyser]

nope

[rare estuary]

Is that the first clean ever

[trim flicker]

i havent cleaned this in a while

[elder quarry]

never watched

[rare estuary]

This Amazon driver best hurry up and bring my am4 bracket

[elder quarry]

never even heard of it

[trim idol]

It looks like dryer lint or maybe speaker insulation...

[elder quarry]

lol

[rare estuary]

Dryer lint in the pc is crazy

[trim flicker]

its just dust

[trim idol]

it could have just fallen there

[trim flicker]

my dust is grey/black

[trim idol]

thats not how dust normally accumulates though

[trim flicker]

i rolled it into a ball

[trim idol]

[trim flicker]

i need to turn off my pc it display crazhed

What's the difference between dedicated RAM kits and just buying 2x8GB of the same stick

Is that 6700 sagging

[trim idol]

what is that Asus card?

[trim flicker]

rx570

[trim flicker]

no

[trim idol]

bet it needs a repaste

[solid quail]

Mom, can we have multi-graphics card configuration?
No, we have multi-graphics card configuration at home
Multi-graphics card configuration at home:

[sly epoch]

guys I built a pc a month ago and I was getting 120-160fps in war thunder on max settings now I can barely get 100 any idea why?

[clear hull]

anyone here using the AOC xmn 1440p mini led?

[trim flicker]

its been repasted, was at 25c and got to 34c when it crashed

[solid quail]

Okay but all jokes aside it looks really cool

[trim flicker]

when it crashed

[amber pawn]

Can someone remind me what those fans that connect together to reduce cables (1 cable for 2+ fans) are called? Trying to find them but can't

[solid quail]

Yeah rx 500 is already starting to get quite old. It is possible that the card is dying

[sly epoch]

I have i5-12400f and rx6600 with 32gb of ddr4

[trim idol]

lian li makes them

[trim flicker]

the ones that daisychain

[trim idol]

phanteks does too

[elder quarry]

Lian Li Uni Fans

[trim flicker]

alot of them do

[solid quail]

Did you change your configuration in any way?

[trim flicker]

arctic does daisychainable fans

[sly epoch]

nope

[solid quail]

You sure? Is it possible that your memory settings had reset Or something

[strange atlas]

Which one is better 990 pro or 980 pro i was expecting 990 pro is better but 990 pro is a lot cheaper

[sly epoch]

I even reinstalled my gpu drivers and yes I used DDU to remove the current one

[tidal geyser]

Just get the sn580

[strange atlas]

no not for me i was looking at market and seen it sounded weird

normally i would expect 990pro to be more expensive

[sly epoch]

wdym

[amber pawn]

Dang wireless fans now? Do those work good? Expensive for fans lol

[tidal geyser]

Ans ypu are sure its not fake

[solid quail]

Xmp settings in BIOS 🙄

[sly epoch]

its enabled

its running at 3200MT/s

[solid quail]

So are you sure it's just not some update in the game

[sly epoch]

the game is on steam so Ik its up to date

[trim idol]

New CPU let's gooooo

[elder quarry]

I heard those things can get very unstable if you dont set it up correctly

Somebody asks me if i want to trade my old pc(1070ti, r5 2600,2x8gigs) for Ipad air 4 is it worth it

[tidal geyser]

No

[trim idol]

Ipad Air 4 is $230

[gloomy sleet]

pc is like £300-£450 the ipad is like £250 max

why arent you playing wired?

[strange atlas]

In here its around 330 dollar(ipad air 4)

[gloomy sleet]

superior method

[gloomy sleet]

pc is still worth more

you can easily sell that for £400

[strange atlas]

okay thank youu

[strange atlas]

its in the second hand site and been months at 300 dollar price

nobody wants it i dont get it

[gloomy sleet]

did you do the secret pc selling method

[strange atlas]

its not even a bad system or anything

[strange atlas]

probably no what is it

[trim idol]

do you have good pictures?

[gloomy sleet]

say how well it does in popular games in your region

[strange atlas]

i put specs on the title maybe thats the problem

[gloomy sleet]

typically fortnite

[gloomy sleet]

put how well it does in games

whatever game is most popular where you live

[strange atlas]

oh you are so right i can put zula and valorant performance into it there are lots of childs here

i didnt think of that before

[trim idol]

I'm doing a listing for an i7 9700k system right now and I put specs like this in the listing

Time Spy - 12,428

[rigid fjord]

sadly for both 12vhpwr and then newer spec'd 12v 2x6 (same connector no matter what) are both spec'd at 18awg cable ( 8.5amps per cable on the connector) and the pins themselves being rated for 8.5amps

[rare musk]

#1338538701407387710 message someone help this lil fella please

[gloomy sleet]

game wasnt really my thing

didnt have too good wheel support

[kindred halo]

Okay wtf

The B760M-P ONLY has USB 2.0 slots??

[gloomy sleet]

game ran perfectly for me though

[rigid fjord]

nah, we could have stuck with minifit but as a 2x6 instead of 2 or 3x(2x4) connector, where the pins are rated for 13 amps, and you could use 14/16/18awg cable on instead, which would have put it at 15/13/8,5 amps per cable per connector

[rigid fjord]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-4095597578532971838

[kindred halo]

Okay it has ONE USB 3.0 (5GBs) at the rear

[rigid fjord]

yes

[mortal mantle]

so my phone crashing with that reason twice is a really bad sign

[gloomy sleet]

ive never liked TXR

i simply prefer track racing

evident by the fact im currently testing out a new modern GT3 pack someone made on le sarthe in assetto corsa lol

[plucky frost]

yes

[plucky frost]

lol

[plucky frost]

it is

[scarlet socket]

anyone here got fh5 on pc?

[trim flicker]

i do

[rigid fjord]

well if you read what it means, then you fully know why it ain't great

[scarlet socket]

can you share me the exe

[trim flicker]

why

[scarlet socket]

i was tryna play and the exe is not in the folder

[thorn pewter]

Just redownload it

[mortal mantle]

does that mean shits fucked

[fresh anchor]

Anyone got any good noise supression softwares

[mortal mantle]

(based on the fact that my phone freezes then restarts to tell me that a watchdog reset)

[rigid fjord]

you have a failing app/driver/firmware

[thorn pewter]

For a second I thought you were referring to the game watchdogs

[cinder rivet]

I hate crimping

[thorn pewter]

?

[rigid fjord]

soldering > crimping

[gloomy sleet]

real

[cinder rivet]

Yeah I've been stuck here for an hour just crimping

Just a bit of pressure and it fails, really everything should be a ferrule

[mortal mantle]

it's a EL1 crash

[rigid fjord]

google the error

[mortal mantle]

if there was one (there is no error code just a dump of multiple errors)

[thorn pewter]

What is it

[trim flicker]

goofy ahh gpu

[rigid fjord]

read through them and then discern which is what you're being affected by the most

[junior valve]

cp

[gloomy sleet]

you can earn CP

its the main currency

[junior valve]

corsair powersupplies

[gloomy sleet]

also why are you playing on keyboard?

surely controller or wheel would be much better

[junior valve]

what else is outthere ?

[gloomy sleet]

wheel wouldnt be actually game has ass wheel support

[mortal mantle]

most are CPU cache (at the very bottom of the dumped errors)

[gloomy sleet]

you can get a steering wheel

or a controller

both would probably be better then a keyboard

fair

i wouldnt recommend a DD wheel on it

[cinder rivet]

Yeah fuck crimping

I'm so fucking done, who tf designed this stupid shit

[thorn pewter]

Why is there two QR codes ?

[cinder rivet]

It makes no sense like it's perfect I hate this

[trim flicker]

its a dual gpu thing

[cinder rivet]

Why can't we just have sound connectors like one universal standard

[plush wren]

what is bro playing

is it tokyo xtreme racer

[thorn pewter]

Sli/nvlink/crossfire?

Or two separate GPUs and one used for as a display adapter?

[trim flicker]

windows dislikes two gpus in one

pc

so when bsods happen it does that

heres a blurry pic

[thorn pewter]

Oh I personally never tried that, never seen it before lol

[cinder rivet]

It's so fucking shit

[cinder rivet]

Like I just wasted 1 and a half hours of my life

[plush wren]

Wow this is an ugly pc

[trim flicker]

thanks

its made to hurt people

[thorn pewter]

Ooo not bad I like it, but windows is like that lol

[plush wren]

[thorn pewter]

Wait, isn't that not the same PC as you always have bellow your desk?

@rare musk Okay quick question
How user-friendly is Ubuntu / Mint in comparison to Windows 10 / 11?

I have a very stupid idea that sorta requires Linux to work, but I am not sure if it's worth it

[cinder rivet]

Yeah fuck crimping

It's too dumb and too fucking hard

[rare musk]

i never used linux

I'd say mint is the friendliest

Okayyyy, last (and easiest(?)) point

Is it possible to program a motherboard speaker to play at a specific point during startup

Or are main functions just not available by that point

[left dove]

Unknown, I think the inital beeps are controlled by the bios chip itself but I'm assuming you can get a low-level app or something that triggers the piezo since I think it just goes through the super i/o chip

[kindred halo]

If not I can probably just make it trigger on startup and delay audio by a few seconds

[random gyro]

Totk doesn’t

[kindred halo]

Hmmm.. Barely understood any of that, but thanks eitherway

My grandma has a Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-D3H motherboard, but when I installed a new GPU(still old tho) I couldn't find where in the bios it was. It also didn't show anything

[left dove]

did you plug the display into the gpu instead of the motherboard

[reef holly]

I did, the screen didn't work, then I tried in the motherboard an it worked (yes the GPU works too)

[kindred halo]

GPU won't show if motherboard boot

[left dove]

so you need to go into the bios and change the primary graphics adapter to pcie

[reef holly]

Oh ok thx, one problem tho. The bios is old as ******** and has almost nothing

[brave brook]

i still prefer the 2699's with all their cores 😄. 3.7GHz on that 2643v4 vs 3.6GHz on 2699v3, the low core load clocks will be nearly identical (yes, v4 is one gen newer, but oh well)

[kindred halo]

@left dove Also just remembered

The motherboard on what used to be my daily driver PC (Not anymore thanks to JDAM) had PCIe Gen 2.0

Like damn I knew it was old and useless but that's just salt over the wound 😭

[brave brook]

here select GFX configuration

[brave brook]

and here in Primary Video Device select NB PCIe Slot Video

you can also select Integrated Graphics to Force, to have IGP even with PCIe GPU installed, as a backup

There's still lots of those depending on where you look

Either left-over warship barrage shells or unexploded JDAMs

Thankfully though most have been removed

yea i have had this 3600 for few yeras def got my use out of it

[vale saddle]

Im limited because im on am4

Getting am5 is very expensive since i need new cpu new ram new motherboard

[fallow moss]

i think my boardx can run the 5700x3d

[vale saddle]

are you am4 or am5?

your mobo?

[fallow moss]

i have asus x570

[pallid temple]

Anyone that knows stuff about gaming laptops? I wanna buy one but i dont know which one

[potent flax]

3700x - 5700x hopefully soon the core i7 14700k for all the cores

or 5950x

[vale saddle]

you have a r5 3600 in it now right?

[left dove]

ha

[fallow moss]

yes

[vale saddle]

Its am4 then

[potent flax]

[vale saddle]

you cant have anything higher than the 5000 series

anything above and you need new motherboard

[fallow moss]

the 5700xd 3d woulda been cool just 100 more bucks

[potent flax]

jus flash bios

[vale saddle]

you cant

The chipset is different physically

[left dove]

you can't flash a bios to support a physically different socket

[fallow moss]

im sure this cpu ima keep for years to come also by the time i need a new one ill be glad to play with a new boardx and rebuild

[vale saddle]

when you insert the cpu its completely different than it

[clear canyon]

Not how that works

[potent flax]

Anyone have good AM5 ddr5 motherboard suggestions? the one i was looking at till my paycheck came is out now lol

[lethal bay]

Any B650/B850 ngl

[tired bear]

i have a asrock b650 livemixer and so far it is excelent

[inner veldt]

Should i get 7900xtx or reduce cpu 9800x3d to 7800x3d and get 5080?

[left dove]

why would you downgrade your cpu

just save your pennies ffs

[inner veldt]

I dont have system

[mossy knot]

decent built in wifi chip? and the price looks great for what i need but DEAR LORD ITS SO ORANGE

[left dove]

in that case get a 7800x3d and a 4080

[inner veldt]

4080 is same price as 5080 here due to scalping

[left dove]

idk do w/e

[inner veldt]

Weird scalping

Is 7900xtx that worse?

[tired bear]

it doesent have built in wifi but i can add in a wifi card later

[shy olive]

I was with my friend and we went to the only pc shop and we saw a water-cooled build and the first thing he said was if its waterproof. I need new friends

[latent gull]

how easy is a basic memory OC or is that a rabbit hole i shouldnt go down unless im willing to put a lot of time into it?

[tired bear]

just run expo/xmp speed and be done with it

getting ram oc that is stable is dificult

[latent gull]

thats what ive had running the past couple years, was hoping to try and increase my 1% low drops

but its something id have no idea on where to even start :P

[shy olive]

What the hell is a ram overclocked

[steel umbra]

livermixer based

[mossy knot]

https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-B650-AX-Triple-Realtek/dp/B083TZ68H1
think im going for this, has my am5, ddr5, and built in wifi, anyone here know of something better for similar price?

[left dove]

please trim your links

[steel umbra]

for ddr5 putting on some builzoid ez timings is probably worth it if you have decent ram cooling

[left dove]

https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-B650-AX-Triple-Realtek/dp/B083TZ68H1

[latent gull]

na im still on ddr4

[shy olive]

Tbh it's kinda fine. We can see where it leads to atleast

[left dove]

we don't need 8 lines of tracking to see what they're talking about.

[shy olive]

Sometimes you do. Really

[left dove]

nnno.

[steel umbra]

well, check some guide on youtube, but if you’re just gaming or such the difference will be neglidible mostly

enabling memory profile will do fine

[shy olive]

It's fine just go back to bouncing across servers:)

[left dove]

You don't get to tell me what to do

[shy olive]

Oh I'm sorry:))) my bad

[lethal bay]

USPS please

[steel umbra]

this one is fine

don’t don’t get some of the prime, budget gigabyte, asrock am5 boards under ds3h or hdv and you’ll be totally good

[left dove]

scalpers gonna scalp

a few months ago we didn't have a mentally disturbed carrot running the nation but here we are

[mossy knot]

apolgies, is this a warning towards me and if so what does that mean? just look out for those names in listings?

[latent gull]

i assumed as much, thanks

[abstract wigeon]

i kinda really maybe wanna do that 3d printed cooling shroud thing optimum did a while back

[tired bear]

well do it

[abstract wigeon]

gigabyte b650 gaming ax v2 is good value
