rgb drawing 84 watts

[latent ledge]

Definitely can’t wait that long ;-;

I wish I could but I only have like ~$650 to spend on a GPU… I’m just praying I can get lucky and find a white 9070 XT at msrp somewhere (I know it’s unlikely but a man can hope lol)

[smoky heart]

ok so guys rx 6800 16gb and i5-10400f with 550 psu ? am worried of buying the gpu but then it will not work

[true stirrup]

It will work

[fleet pier]

nah, i doubt it, even at first launch day they already were 750-800 bucks, considering all the leaks and news it might end up costing 900-1000 bucks lol

[smoky heart]

alright man

i trust you

[latent ledge]

Damn alright
I still might give it a little time though just to see
I found some pretty nice looking white 7900 GREs on eBay for like $600, do you think that’s worth it?

[fleet pier]

if i were to buy a gpu, then i wouldn't buy any amd gpu, cus they're good only for 1 thing which is rasterized gaming, but if you don't care about rt in games and production, don't care about 3d performance in apps like blender, or don't care about productivity and ml performance, then you can buy it, but it'll be good only for rasterized games

[latent ledge]

I don’t care much about rt, 3d performance isn’t relevant at the moment but might be in the future (I’m becoming an engineering major so autocad may be involved), and I do care about productivity performance
What’s ml performance?

[fleet pier]

hmm, what about 3090, did they went up in price too?

[fleet pier]

machine learning

training ml models for different tasks

[dapper light]

even with RT it still match 5070

[latent ledge]

Ah ok

[dapper light]

well worth the much much faster raster

[latent ledge]

Yeah I probably won’t use that much

[fleet pier]

only 5070

[true stirrup]

65W for the CPU and 250W for the GPU
You're more than good

[latent ledge]

Yea but 9070 XTs are like impossible to get

[dapper light]

yea... and it's a 600 bucks card

[latent ledge]

I’d say so

(That’s usd btw)

[true stirrup]

You should have been fast yesterday

[fleet pier]

600 bucks in my ass, it's sold for 800-1000 bucks already, brother

[lapis condor]

They are being regularly stocked

[latent ledge]

I was on Newegg 6 minutes after they were available for purchase
They were gone

[latent ledge]

At msrp? Also mainly on like Newegg or Best Buy or which?

[dapper light]

and 5070 is going for above 1000

[lapis condor]

MSRP doesn't exist for any card anymore
Next shipments are increasing in price already, expect 700-900 for the next wave

And for every store

[latent ledge]

Ahhhh
I might be able to pay 700 but maybe not

I wonder if I buy a prebuilt with a 9070 XT and then sell the other components if it’ll end up making the GPU like $500 or $600

[tidal geyser]

no

[latent ledge]

Aw man

[fleet pier]

they're out of stock everywhere, so are 9070 xts and on ebay scalpers sell them for about the same price

[latent ledge]

Guess I’ll just have to try to find a 4070 super or something

[rapid quarry]

Does anyone know the 9070XT’s performance in RTX on Minecraft bedrock edition? That game has no fsr support and when I tried RTX with it on my 6700XT, I had to use RSR to get a really playable frame rate.

I no longer play it because it feels soulless in recent times but I am curious.

[fleet pier]

nah, i doubt you'll find it at that price

4070 super was a great deal a year ago when it came out, but now i see it for 800-1000 bucks minimum, which is not good

i mean 800 is not THAT bad, but ya know

[tidal geyser]

it is

[fleet pier]

well, ig if you find it for 800 and you need gpu asap, then it's probably the best shit out of theis pile of shit that is currently amd and nvidia are shitting out

[latent ledge]

I ordered it on Black Friday but it got delayed like 3 times so I canceled it and decided to wait for CES
I regret it so much

[fleet pier]

i've managed to buy it for 630 bucks

a year ago

[latent ledge]

I might just try to pick up like a 6600 for like $120 and wait for the next gen

[fleet pier]

retrospectively yeah, but considering the market rn, doesn't look too bad

[latent ledge]

Niceeee
Mine was basically the same, like $610

[tidal geyser]

no it very much is

[latent ledge]

I wonder if I can snipe this

At a decent price

[tidal geyser]

in a month or 2 we will get 4080 tier performance for like 700-800$

[fleet pier]

from who xd

[junior valve]

i got it thanks

[fleet pier]

hmm, looks like a scam

[tidal geyser]

something that came out yesterday

[fleet pier]

well in a couple months all prices might drop

[tidal geyser]

no matter what way you look at it buying a high end gpu now is just dumb

[fleet pier]

that's true

[sinful cobalt]

good thing i didnt buy now but last week!

[fleet pier]

yeah that'll probably be a good decision

[tidal geyser]

gpu and price

[sinful cobalt]

you already know

[tidal geyser]

give me a moment

i am on like 4hrs of sleep

[sinful cobalt]

stop being on discord and go sleep

[tidal geyser]

and i kinda have a headache from school due to how loud it is in there

[tidal geyser]

cant also eating dinner

[fleet pier]

hmm, you could try to find something like rtx 3060 12gb. it'll most likely be enough for you till the next gen where you'll be able to save up to a beefier gpu

[latent ledge]

Nooo 😭

[latent ledge]

Maybe it’s just lower cause it’s still bidding

Plus there’s eBay buyer protection

[latent ledge]

Ok :)

[tidal geyser]

what gpu

[fleet pier]

3090

[tidal geyser]

was it that 400 one

[fleet pier]

3090 used ones were such a good deal like a couple months ago

[tidal geyser]

now they are 900

[fleet pier]

oh

[tidal geyser]

a guy here sold his for that

[fleet pier]

i mean, honestly still not bad, 24 gigs and 4070 super performance

[clear canyon]

I got me one in my ai server

[fleet pier]

yeah they cost like 600 bucks

[clear canyon]

I want a 2nd

For bigger ai lmao

[fleet pier]

i was baffled when i saw people selling it for such low price

[tidal geyser]

good luck

[latent ledge]

That’s like $250 though…

[latent ledge]

Damn

[fleet pier]

do you have 1440p monitor?

or 4k

[latent ledge]

Yea
3440 x 1440

So it’s like between the two

[fleet pier]

i see

i mean, if you buy it, it'll last you till next gen i feel like, especially using juicy ahh dlss 4 (i play games at 1440p performance now lmao)

but i doubt you'll be satisfied with 6600

[tidal geyser]

at 1440p 12GB vram minimum

[fleet pier]

yeah and rtx 3060 has 12gb

[clear canyon]

4k 16gigs minimum

[vast otter]

https://youtube.com/shorts/yZna2zNgaFc?si=CXY7Jm5YwkMNnUGZ

[latent ledge]

I don’t need a ton of performance tho, I’m content playing games on lower settings until I can snatch a better GPU

[tidal geyser]

at the res he wants 16 might be a smart move too but yeah 12gb should be fine

[clear canyon]

3060 isn't strong enough for most modern games at 1440p

[latent ledge]

This is a temporary card tho so I’m not looking to spend a lot on it

[fleet pier]

with dlss and well chosen settings it is

[tidal geyser]

rx 6700 xt or 6750 xt is nice or b580

[clear canyon]

Low? Na I'm good

[fleet pier]

of course it won't be able to do path tracing or high rt, but it definitely can handle high raster, low-medium rt settings

[latent ledge]

Those are all like $300

[tidal geyser]

yes

how much is a used 3060

and what card do you plan to buy

[latent ledge]

Like $200

[latent ledge]

Permanently or as a temporary?

[tidal geyser]

Permanently so not going to upgrade in like 80+ years

[fleet pier]

time to buy rtx 10090 xd

[plain cypress]

You will be buried with your GPU you buy today

[latent ledge]

Probably a $600 or $700 card, it depends what comes out or what happens to the prices

[latent ledge]

Lol

[tidal geyser]

there was the 9070 xt but right now not great

[latent ledge]

I also wanna try to keep the temporary card under like 220mm so I can give it to my brother later

[latent ledge]

Yeah I tried to get one but they were like instantly gone

We’ll see what happens with the restocking prices

[tidal geyser]

are you in the US

[latent ledge]

Yup

[tidal geyser]

how far away from a micro center?

[latent ledge]

Like

Over 4 hours

[tidal geyser]

well its the best hope

[latent ledge]

Nvm it’s like 3 hours

[latent ledge]

Can’t drive there ;-; got stuff going on

[tidal geyser]

o well with some hope in 2-4 weeks we should see some cards on shelves

[quiet light]

If i buy a second hand iphone from a local shop, how do i test if everything works on it? is there an app where i can quick test a bunch of stuff?

[latent ledge]

I hope so…

[quiet light]

the store will let me test*

[latent ledge]

Probably run geekbench or antutu or something

And then test the cameras

[gloomy sleet]

never

why does gta enhanced have an update everytime i load up the rockstar launcher

[pseudo swallow]

my only subscribens are: Spotify and Floatplane

[random gyro]

ask to borrow it and then never give it back

[frail topaz]

mine too, but i STILL cant migrate my account and i have like 100mln on it

[quiet light]

good idea!

[gloomy sleet]

i was able to migrate literally under 10 seconds somehow

[fleet pier]

buy an android and turn it into iphone

[frail topaz]

???????Euihnreuygvbswyughjfdbedrfgkvj'

[gloomy sleet]

i loaded in and it told me "do you want to migrate your legacy account to enhanced" and i just said yes

[frail topaz]

^ Rockstar

[gloomy sleet]

did you get a money drop?

[frail topaz]

possibly mightve back in the day

[gloomy sleet]

thats probably why

[frail topaz]

dawg like 90% of players have had money drops and my friend with his 160mln MODDED account migrated just fine

[gloomy sleet]

just wait like a week and youll be fine

[quiet light]

i want to stay on android but:
i prefer a smaller display while keeping the high end specs
i dont want an s24 or s25

s23u was sooooooo nice i loved it

[gloomy sleet]

i dont really like my 13M

[random gyro]

it was so bad i used my old iphone X over it 💀

[gloomy sleet]

im thinking about getting an xperia 5 v

[frail topaz]

saying this because ive ussed probably tens of phones, iphone and android, i like android more, iphone isnt really my thing

currently rocking a Pixel 7 Pro - Prolly gonna get the OnePlus 13 next

[gloomy sleet]

ive never actually used an android phone

[quiet light]

"small" as in 6 inches
Ngl I like it alot

[gloomy sleet]

6" is small

[fleet pier]

ngl want to get s25u and slap one of the community google cameras on it

[frail topaz]

ive used, pro iphones, base iphones, flagship androids, budget android, mid rangers, nothing phones, pixel, samsung, redmagic, xiaomi etc

[gusty wagon]

6" is small alright

[fleet pier]

damn you're rich

[frail topaz]

6.7 is perfect for me (FOR A PHONE)

[fleet pier]

give me some money xd

[gloomy sleet]

i had 2 nokia 3310s a iphone 6s and a 13 mini

[gusty wagon]

6.7 before or after?

[frail topaz]

Sorry?

[random gyro]

im glad u edited that

[gloomy sleet]

the first 3310 broke after a week

the 3310 was week as fuck

[frail topaz]

i know what you people are thats why im a part of this server

[gusty wagon]

[quiet light]

Lts and accessories?
And Asus software isn't the nicest

[frail topaz]

my dad's 3310 survived a fire

[gloomy sleet]

most phones would survive a fire

of that era at least

[frail topaz]

fire, drops from construction sites when he was building our house, i think it got run over by a scania too

[gloomy sleet]

my first 3310 broke after it fell out of my pocket

[frail topaz]

i just asked my dad he confirmed and it was a scania R620 V8

[gloomy sleet]

the second one broke the day i got it when i dropped it 20cm on my sofa

i got another one for free atleast

i didnt get a refund for my 3310

[frail delta]

Sometimes a little bigger is nice

[fleet pier]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-impossible-marvel-shocked-gif-15104180

[frail delta]

Other times even 6.7” is way too much

[random gyro]

titanium on my phone makes it feel like air

[frail topaz]

i mean i have pretty big hands

[fleet pier]

i still have my old 3310 fully functioning

[gloomy sleet]

its very possible

the nokia 3310 was pretty well known for being weak

thats where the joke of it being invincible came from lmao

[tired path]

stop lying

[gloomy sleet]

im not

[tired path]

i had a couple of those

[gloomy sleet]

the 3310 was just really weak

[tired path]

i remember throwing it at a wall and not breaking

so idk

[gloomy sleet]

2 3310s broke within the same month

[tidal geyser]

[steel umbra]

that takes a lot of effort to break

[gloomy sleet]

no

[steel umbra]

did it fell out of your pocket from a skyscraper

[gloomy sleet]

it broke after falling on a pillow

[gloomy sleet]

[ripe spire]

@tidal geyser how many applications will I get out of a 0.8g tube of thermal paste?

[gloomy sleet]

?

[west wagon]

there's something i don't quite get with cyberpunk 2077, i get 90fps in 1080p med-high with a rx6800xt and my cpu is used at 100% all cores used at max... while i watch a youtube video with the same GPU, the i5 13600k is used at 50-60% and he gets 120fps in ultra

[gloomy sleet]

atleast one

i love my 4060 wdym

do you see the insane power efficiency rn

under 90w

[west wagon]

and i see other people get 30-40% usage with my CPU

[abstract wigeon]

how many years/if ever do you think it will take for 50 series/90 series to return to msrp?

[west wagon]

5-6

[hushed tundra]

Is it a stupid idea to buy an M1 MacBook Air with the display removed? It’s only like 100€ so it feels like too good of a deal

[gloomy sleet]

sure

just use it as a keyboard and a pc

[lapis condor]

Never

[abstract wigeon]

i mean if you need an m1 macbook air with the display removed

check it has a usable amount of ram/storage aswell

[hushed tundra]

I kinda just need a MacOS device that doesn’t go up in flames when I try to play a YT video on it

[hoary tree]

damn, The Non pro iphones seemingly haven't had a new sensor for the ultrawide in years

[onyx lake]

i got a m1 mac air 512gb 8gb ram for 280 usd. came with the charger and a slipcase and a usb dongle

[hoary tree]

even the 12 pro max has a larger ultrawide sensor than the iphone 16

[true stirrup]

You are not allowed to sell stuff here

[steel umbra]

del this

[onyx lake]

rephrased. is it worth 300 lol

[rigid fjord]

@tidal geyser @trim idol muahahahaha

link aggregation ftw

[restive swan]

Is a omen 15 with i5 laptop worth $150?

[dapper light]

ethernet 4 is that one kid in the group project that does nothing but still gets the credits

[tidal geyser]

Maybe 2-3

[rigid fjord]

2 realtek rlt8126b's vs 1 intel 1225-v

[tidal geyser]

Very nice

[rigid fjord]

neither are great nic controllers

[rare pier]

repasted, took a look at the back plate, some of the pads were kind of misaligned not contacting the solder points fully so moved them into place, repasted gpu no new thermal pads

[tidal geyser]

Jesus how did you get a i5 14hx for 150 that's like a desktop 14th gen pc worth of cpu omg /s

[rare pier]

old

[tidal geyser]

I really need to get myself 10GbE stuff

But it's still sold out

[rigid fjord]

which i5 exactly?

[warm bluff]

Is 5080 a 1440p card ?

[tidal geyser]

No

[rigid fjord]

tbf 2.5Gbe is overkill for my use

[tidal geyser]

A rx 580 is

[restive swan]

Thinking about buying it I found it on marketplace the i5 is a 9th gen btw

[tidal geyser]

Anything is overkill for me but I kinda wanna get into fiber so I can slap that on my cv or something

[restive swan]

Just answered that lol

[rigid fjord]

technically it's nvidia's newest entry level to 4k res gpu

[tidal geyser]

Gpu?

[tired path]

no????????? thats a 1080p card no?

[quiet light]

13m is too mini

[gloomy sleet]

fair

[restive swan]

Unsure

[rigid fjord]

used nowadays for 1080p, but it was originally aimed at 1440p

[restive swan]

No sticker identifying it

[quiet light]

5.5 inches is too tiny

[rigid fjord]

that's what she said

[tidal geyser]

What are the rest of the specs and does it come with everything

[restive swan]

Charger and he says it works. Says it's a few years old too

So probably like 2019

[tired path]

dam wb the 1660s

[restive swan]

I don't think the guy knows what all he's got

[tidal geyser]

Well they only have 6GB of vram

[limber nacelle]

entry level 4k is the 5070ti imo

[restive swan]

My last gamble payed off I traded my breath of the wild switch and some games for a PC off marketplace

Came with a 3060 ti

[limber nacelle]

considering it's a 5080 lite

[tired path]

is 1660s is better than rx 580

[azure topaz]

not by that much

[tidal geyser]

I would not get any of em

[modest pivot]

7600x or 7700x

[azure topaz]

yea^

[azure topaz]

id get a 7700x myself

[tidal geyser]

7600 non x

[dapper light]

5070 SHOULD have been en entry level 4k card if it's 20% improvement like a new generation is supposed to be

[modest pivot]

i have the money for it, should i go for?

[azure topaz]

up to you

do you think youll need 8 cores?

[tidal geyser]

What gpu

[modest pivot]

4060ti

[split laurel]

The 4070S gets better performance in some games I still think that's crazy

[tidal geyser]

7600 non x it is

[modest pivot]

im using it for both gaming, photoshop and video editing

[gloomy sleet]

get a better gpu imo

[azure topaz]

then get the 8 core

[tidal geyser]

Or single ccd 12 core

Zen 6

[azure topaz]

whenever those come out

[split laurel]

Well if he saves money and gets a 7600x he can get more ram or storage

Unless he needs the cores

[tidal geyser]

or save even more and get the non x

and just using its cooler

[split laurel]

True

[tidal geyser]

what is your current specs?

[split laurel]

That saves like $30

Or more

[azure topaz]

if he has 32 gigs and a decent amount of storage i feel like spending extra since he does some form of productivity is pretty valid

esp since the 7700 shouldnt be that much more i dont think

[modest pivot]

currently on a 4060 + i7-12650H laptop
the pc im looking to get is:
4060 ti ,7700x (?), 32gig ddr5, 1.5tb ssd

[clear spruce]

How could i get that card out?

[tidal geyser]

7700x and 4060 ti is big sad together

[clear spruce]

The one with the black&white cable

[split laurel]

Yeah

[tidal geyser]

budget?

[azure topaz]

take the screw in the corner out

[modest pivot]

£1350

[clear spruce]

OH

[split laurel]

Is there any way to get a better card if you use a 7600?

[azure topaz]

silly

[tidal geyser]

why not get a better gpu

[split laurel]

Or not it this market

[modest pivot]

any recs?

[split laurel]

Right

[clear spruce]

One of em wasnt it already, weird

[split laurel]

B580 has a good encoder right

[tidal geyser]

ok yeah tbf the market is a bit uh not great but give me a moment

[tidal geyser]

best

[left dove]

Mornin', dorks

[clear spruce]

Cant unscrww

[split laurel]

Right so that would be alot better then a 4060 or 4060ti

[dapper light]

morning

[onyx lake]

7700 non x is available for 160-170 on aliexpress tho

[clear spruce]

5pm here, but hello there

[tidal geyser]

for video editing miles

[modest pivot]

wont catch me lacking with a intel gpu

[azure topaz]

either or, id just rather have the 8 core

[split laurel]

And the 7600 is a modern cpu so shouldn't have to many problems

[modest pivot]

current basket

[tidal geyser]

how much video editing do you do

[split laurel]

There actually amazing

[gloomy sleet]

i wouldnt get a 4060ti

[modest pivot]

not a lot, maybe once or twice every 2 weeks

[split laurel]

I've used every brand and my favorite was intel

[modest pivot]

its occassional

[onyx lake]

switch out for 7700. way cheaper . find it on aliexpress for 170 usd

[tidal geyser]

no core ultra for you then

[onyx lake]

and it’s barely slower

[gloomy sleet]

why do you need wifi

[modest pivot]

maybe to uh.. play games? watch things? use the internet?

[gloomy sleet]

ethernet bro

[split laurel]

B580 is a way better option then 4060ti is this case if you think intel is bad u just don't know enough about them

most things would be better then a 4060ti here

in my room i get 8 mbps on a good day

[gloomy sleet]

also can you not just drill a hole near the router and near the pc and use a fishing wire and drag it though

[azure topaz]

thats fair i just have the router in my room 🙂‍↕️

[tidal geyser]

JESUS

[split laurel]

Or put it on the top corners of the wall with white tape

[modest pivot]

my dad would rather die than let a hole be drilled in house

[broken saffron]

damn

[gloomy sleet]

that sounds normal

[modest pivot]

sky wifi for you

[gloomy sleet]

same

[modest pivot]

30mbps is not normal bro im paying for like 150

[tidal geyser]

so you do not have fiber

[gloomy sleet]

[modest pivot]

no, im switching to virgin media soon

[split laurel]

Mabey 6

[tidal geyser]

are you connected straight to the modem?

[broken saffron]

then why are you using it

[gloomy sleet]

30mbps is normal for me

[modest pivot]

with ethernet, i connect to the router

[gloomy sleet]

i pay to get 80mbps but i dont really care

[broken saffron]

damn

[split laurel]

I'd be so happy to have 30mbps

[broken saffron]

how much?

[pseudo swallow]

done

[tidal geyser]

there is only 15 gpus in the UK on pcpartpicker that are white

[gloomy sleet]

£35/M

[broken saffron]

i live in school dorms and get 200

[tidal geyser]

so is that a yes

[modest pivot]

yes

[tidal geyser]

i have 500/500

[modest pivot]

i pay £46/M

[broken saffron]

damn bruh you can get like 1gbps for a lil more in my country

[modest pivot]

[gloomy sleet]

nah

[clear spruce]

Hey sim

[azure topaz]

[azure topaz]

non ex t

[broken saffron]

rip

[clear spruce]

Do you think i can unplug these cables? @tidal geyser @azure topaz

[modest pivot]

9070 and 7600x?

[azure topaz]

i have 2000/200

[tidal geyser]

yes

[gloomy sleet]

yeah

[azure topaz]

yes its just a wifi card

[clear spruce]

How?

[tidal geyser]

that is what i am doing but again NON X

[dapper light]

[azure topaz]

pull directly up

[modest pivot]

alright

bit steep dont you think

[azure topaz]

wrong one

[broken saffron]

how much do you pay

[azure topaz]

9070 non xt

[clear spruce]

TY FLOPPA

[modest pivot]

link please

[dapper light]

30US/mo

[tidal geyser]

i am making a list

[azure topaz]

on god 🗣️

[broken saffron]

damn good price

[modest pivot]

kk

[tidal geyser]

its not the best but its what we got

[frail delta]

Well, about 970Mbps

[azure topaz]

yeah i was sayin cause he searched for da xt

[modest pivot]

hey mate close enough

[gloomy sleet]

i cant get fibre until 2026

[dapper light]

ngl i think i'm actually bottlenecked by my mobo's shit nic than anything

[azure topaz]

probably

[dapper light]

can't reach GbE even on Iperf parallel

[tidal geyser]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/LpNY2x

[azure topaz]

i have 2.5gbe or something its pretty sick

im going to move my local network to 10g tho

[gloomy sleet]

fair

[azure topaz]

yes

[gloomy sleet]

i need to move my network to 50mbps

[azure topaz]

i have 2gbit wan

[tidal geyser]

😭

[broken saffron]

yo bruh what do you use it for

[azure topaz]

i have the worlds shittiest lan setup tho

[clear spruce]

Floppa

The screw does not come out of the wifi card, why?

[azure topaz]

big file transfers, 10gbit is like 1.2GB/s, which is about a third of the performance of like nvme

[azure topaz]

uhhhh i dunno

[broken saffron]

ahh alr

make sense

[azure topaz]

yea so like network storage loves the huge speeds

[modest pivot]

ok thank you for advise

[azure topaz]

nothing else for my use case, its also just cool so may as well

[broken saffron]

@modest pivot will you use it for roblox

[azure topaz]

not that expensive™️

[tidal geyser]

this is 50 over but a worth while upgrade but not gonna do much for performance
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/7VCZqH

[modest pivot]

are you asking because of the pfp

[tidal geyser]

the pcie nettwork cards i plan on buying can do 25GbE

[modest pivot]

its a even split between roblox, gta and call of duty

[broken saffron]

ye lol

[modest pivot]

the odd fortnite here and there

[azure topaz]

😻

[tidal geyser]

will i be doing that god no the prices on the rest of the parts for it is uh not great

[azure topaz]

lol yeah

even 10g switches are pretty $$$

[broken saffron]

idk do you need all those parts for those games

[modest pivot]

yes

[broken saffron]

alr you do you

[pearl lava]

is this a good build for the future

[tidal geyser]

the one i wanted to go for is a layer 2 with 4 sfp+ ports but the day i was thinking of starting to buy ubiquity releases the fiber gateway and OOO man do i want it

[tidal geyser]

no

[modest pivot]

kraken is overpriced

get something else

[tidal geyser]

5070 with a 7800x3d and a 200$ cooler O NOOOOOOO

[steel umbra]

overspending, and i’d not get that psu

[eternal reef]

Guys, would this be worth picking up for £450, I will check to see if it actually works with a test bench, it is used on fb marketplace

AMD RYZEN 7 5800X3D with X470 AORUS ULTRA motherboard and CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB PRO 32gb (2x16GB) 3600MHZ CL18

[tidal geyser]

nothing in this build is worth it

[azure topaz]

yeah fr 😭

[broken saffron]

why is the case 360

[azure topaz]

both of the most recently mentioned lists are bad

[modest pivot]

the hyte y70 is a really nice case but its a tad bit too expensive

[cosmic helm]

i have a thermaltake AIO and its good and way cheaper

[azure topaz]

450 for a 5800x3d isnt terrible ig if its with board and ram compared to market value but

the market is stupid and thats so much money for am5

[azure topaz]

buy am5 🙏

[modest pivot]

what are the full specs?

[tidal geyser]

2K pound build, 5070 performance

[azure topaz]

yeah

[steel umbra]

everything in this build is just for aesthetics expect for the cpu

[azure topaz]

]thats the whole thing for 450

[eternal reef]

that is it, its not a computer its just the platform

[tidal geyser]

a r5 7600 beats it in a lot of games

[azure topaz]

yeah i would go buy 7600 or 9600 or something or maybe 7700

[winged forum]

if my B2 RAM slot is broken, what is the best distribution for the sticks, do I just run single channel?

[azure topaz]

one of those various chips

[azure topaz]

a1/b1

[tidal geyser]

does b1 work?

[winged forum]

yep

[azure topaz]

do that

[tidal geyser]

o strange welp yeah a1 b1

[azure topaz]

still dual channel

[cosmic helm]

thats what i paid for mine in like mid 2023 brand new

[winged forum]

thanks <3

[azure topaz]

you got scammed 👍

okay not really but thats a lot of money

[cosmic helm]

it was like 450 after tax

[tidal geyser]

WTF

[azure topaz]

yeah pretty wild

[tidal geyser]

its never been 450

[azure topaz]

i paid 380 for my 7900x3d brand new while they were exploding in value

and sold it for 450

[cosmic helm]

that was literally the cheapest price on amazon

[tidal geyser]

was it before or after they were actually exploding

[cosmic helm]

at the time

[quiet light]

lmaoo

[steel umbra]

7800x3d used to be <350 at some point

[tidal geyser]

why only amazon?

[steel umbra]

i bought my 7800x3d at 400

before it went to sale ;-;

atleast it’s decent bin and can do 6400

[tidal geyser]

mine does 6400MT 1:1

[cosmic helm]

looking at the listing i also bought a cooler so it wasnt 450 for just the cpu

[tidal geyser]

what the cooler is only like 30-40$

for a high end one

[cosmic helm]

it was like 70$ for an AIO

[tidal geyser]

AIO for a non 9000 X3D is a move

o well, if it works it works

at least it was not a 200$ AIO

[cosmic helm]

it runs hot without it

[tidal geyser]

its meant to run hot

well not really but the laws of physics makes it run hot

[cosmic helm]

i know but me no like big number

and it was loud i used my old cooler before the AIO arrived and it ran like 80 degrees and was loud

[tidal geyser]

80c is actually pretty good

what cooler were you using

[cosmic helm]

i get like 65 with this AIO

[rough salmon]

This okay getting in 2025 lolll

[cosmic helm]

it was a pure rock slim 2

[tidal geyser]

no

[rough salmon]

It’s only £559

[eternal reef]

Guys, were 5700xts going for like £200 used before or £100, I honestly cant remember, I am seeing them for £150 in good condition all over ebay and this is the first time I have noticed them go down in price

[tidal geyser]

#tech-chat-1 message

[rough salmon]

And I would only use it for Minecraft with shaders

[tidal geyser]

you can get better

[rough salmon]

What like gang

[tidal geyser]

i got one for 100

[eternal reef]

was that on bids? or bin

[tidal geyser]

you cant bid on the platform i use

[eternal reef]

wha platform was it?

[rough salmon]

#1347606233300865186 someone help bro

[tidal geyser]

[eternal reef]

alr

ill have a look

[tidal geyser]

Norway only

[eternal reef]

ahh ok

[rough salmon]

Damn no one seeing my forum means u can’t get one for £500 lolll I might as well just get a ps5 init and use keyboard and mouse

[tawdry nest]

Im looking for a dual monitor wall mount that could have my 32in in the middle and my 27in off the left. All the ones on amazon seem to have 2 arms of equal length, meaning I would have to put both monitors in the middle?

[left dove]

or just offset the mount so the 32" is centered

Or get two wall mounts

[modest pivot]

mmmmmmm

[rapid quarry]

$500 that that laptop costs more than an actual 5090.

[modest pivot]

the laptop costs 7k

*6.2k

[rapid quarry]

Welp, I was right even if you bought a scalped 5090 💀

[floral osprey]

All that money to have a way worse experience. At that point get a full gaming pc and a cheap laptop for portability

[grizzled frost]

5090 that performs like a desktop 4070

[floral osprey]

[dusty dew]

best bang for buck in laptop: iGPU

[floral osprey]

And at 100° C

[dusty dew]

since recent ones are now decent enough

[grizzled frost]

2 hours battery life, and hot enough to melt your pants to your thighs

[floral osprey]

2 hours at idle **

[dusty dew]

like I am getting 60+ fps at non low on FH, with an iGPU laptop

on a 60 hz display I wonder how many fps if I put external

[rapid quarry]

What igpu?

[dusty dew]

780m

and I bought it for less than 600 bucks

[rapid quarry]

That is not just any normal iGPU

[dusty dew]

well it is given that its in a mid range office laptop price

back in 2015 all I was able to buy was a i5 6200u and a r5 m335, for the same 600

[rapid quarry]

I currently have a refurbished P15v gen 3 thinkpad. RTX a2000 dedicated gpu and an i7 12800H. $700 out the door

Later on upgraded it to 32 gigs of RAM

[floral osprey]

I recently got a late 2011 MacBook Pro for $5. Needed an ssd and new ram but otherwise worked. I put Ubuntu on it and it runs great

[dusty dew]

well if the used market is good here I would have gotten that, but used market here is terribad

in my current place, but in turn new laptop prices are decent

[rapid quarry]

It was refurbished by Lenovo. It is still under warranty.

[dusty dew]

thats decent, and is a workstation gpu

usually those stuff go for 2000+

[rapid quarry]

And the laptop is built like a tank. Something I wanted since one laptop I had before had the keyboard go and another had the hinges go.

My current laptop is easily repairable.

With good parts availability

[broken saffron]

huh where

[sullen topaz]

Hello anyone can help me with something

[broken saffron]

ask

[cinder raptor]

No

[sullen topaz]

I have a nvidia rtx 4060 and can I stream locally using the software itself

I have tried moonlight and sunshine but had some issues

[sullen topaz]

really?

[broken saffron]

what issue

[sullen topaz]

on amd I was using amd link

Does nvidia have something similar

[daring island]

Ik my cable management could be better lol

[sullen topaz]

Delay and lag but it didnt happen when I was using it before

[broken saffron]

did you try googling

[sullen topaz]

its just local

[raw trout]

Best tv and soundbar from sony brand

[sullen topaz]

Yes

but that I rather stick my original question

[random gyro]

???

[sullen topaz]

if it the nvidia app has something like amd link

[broken saffron]

you can use steam link for staem games

[steel umbra]

/s or no /s

[sullen topaz]

Oh, I will try it thanks

[cinder raptor]

Dont spam all the channels

[broken saffron]

he prolly fucking around

[fickle ivy]

welp

gotta take my mom to court now

[random gyro]

Bro wasn’t joking

[fickle ivy]

she bouta be in debt $1000 to me 😭

[broken saffron]

why would you tell that here 😭

[random gyro]

30 comment thread of him glazing Samsung s25 lineup

[steel umbra]

[broken saffron]

nvm

[fickle ivy]

i need advice

[random gyro]

Fuck u want us to do 🥀🥀🥀

[fickle ivy]

and its kinda tech realted

[broken saffron]

court advice from linus server ???

youd get jailed

[fickle ivy]

my mom smashed my pc

[broken saffron]

why?

[fickle ivy]

my property

[broken saffron]

what made her smash it

[fickle ivy]

i was on it when she got home from work

[broken saffron]

and?

did she tell you not to use it too much

[fickle ivy]

and she also assaulted me and told the cops i assaulted her

[fickle ivy]

i just got it

[random gyro]

Do u not know how expensive it is to sue someone it wouldn’t be worth it

[steel umbra]

money is worth more to you than relationship with your parent?

[fickle ivy]

hell yes

[steel umbra]

.

[fickle ivy]

my relationship with her is abusive

[broken saffron]

damn alr wdym by assaulted tho like its pretty common in asian families to slap children but its for discipline

[rapid quarry]

This is not the server for the type of help you need

[broken saffron]

@fickle ivy yeah buddy i wouldnt seek advice from people here on such issues

[random gyro]

Suing someone over a part time job paycheck 🥀

[fickle ivy]

took my property out of my hands focrfully and start pushing and beating me

[steel umbra]

what did you do

[broken saffron]

how old are you rn?

[fickle ivy]

as i said, i was on my computer when she got home

[fickle ivy]

15

[steel umbra]

LOL

[broken saffron]

and she just started beating you for no reason?

[fickle ivy]

yeah, shes fucked in the head

she clearly has some mental illnesses she cant see

[broken saffron]

oh fuck well do you have a relative you could talk to

[fickle ivy]

she is very emotionally abusive, manipulative and delusional

[rapid quarry]

Were there any obligations you were expected to have done?

[fickle ivy]

nope, only other person in my family is biased in her favor

[fickle ivy]

no

[steel umbra]

a court would definitely not help in that case, you should turn to something else

[broken oar]

would an i5 14400f go well w a 5070 abd 750w psu?

[steel umbra]

you never had good times with her?

[fickle ivy]

well i have court on mondya anyways

[broken saffron]

yeah and @fickle ivy if they dont do anyhting your mom's gonna get more angry

[fickle ivy]

not really

[steel umbra]

well i'm sorry but is court really the only option? or does she not want to treat the mental illness

[fickle ivy]

she doesnt want to

[rapid quarry]

Do you have some trusted adult outside of your family that you can talk to?(Doctor, school counselor, etc…)

[fickle ivy]

like when i asked her how self defense is assault she said "thats your side of the story" which either means shes so delusional she cant see what happened properly, or she intended to lie to the cops from the very start

[dusty dew]

workstations are pretty expensive

[fickle ivy]

yeah, staying wiht a freind right now aswell

[dusty dew]

like there is a hidden "oh you want a quadro, have 3x the price for 75% of the gaming performance"

[rapid quarry]

Talk to them ASAP

[fickle ivy]

my freind mom was so confused when i showed up at 10:30pm with a cop

[dusty dew]

I really wonder @rapid quarry how my 3900x workstation build project with my former company still holding up

saved them 50% of the price for 2x the perf vs that gen of xeon

my only mistake then was not obtaining consumer grade gpu

[steel umbra]

sorry

[dusty dew]

would have been 35-40% of the price\

[dusty dew]

well, teenage clash, yeah have been there vs my dad 17 years ago, but he never smashed the pc, because its expensive

he only hid it, because I flunked 5 out of 9 university subjects (wasnt a good pc, but good enough for the games I play back then)

Ended up exiting my engineering program due to the flunk, learned computer science and basic PC specs as i series were kicking off

[fickle ivy]

i hate that your boiling it down to the fact that im a teenager

[dusty dew]

well if its physical abuse and over the edge you can call child protective services on them

and if you really worked for the PC money

[fickle ivy]

well

i did obtain the pc legally

and it is legally my property

as the parts were mailed to my house under a name that could be proven to be me

and the people who sent them can confirm

[grizzled frost]

https://dontasktoask.com

[left dove]

if in the US even as a minor you have a right to your property even if it's under your caretaker's "protection"

[gloomy sleet]

yeah

[left dove]

so yeah, take her crazy ass to court

[gloomy sleet]

that goes for most countries

[sharp bison]

I am unable to connect to a home server running windows after change the username, pc name and password. Even if i try to add a new network drive and enter the username and password from the server as the credentials to login on my pc. Plz help i'm hopeless

[gloomy sleet]

over here if you have been gifted something or paid for atleast 50% of it it’s your property and it’s destruction of property if someone else damages it

[left dove]

Make it fully known to the judge & your legal representative that you believe your mother has severe mental issues & may have been th cause of the event.

[gloomy sleet]

no matter what your age is

[gloomy sleet]

imo you shouldn’t even have to do this if your parent is assaulting you and damaging your property for something as small as using it then it’s obvious she isn’t all there

[left dove]

yeah but innocent until proven guilty

[gloomy sleet]

true

[left dove]

also start audio recording your interactions with her if she's having an episode or something

before that figure out if your state is single-party-consent or not

[gloomy sleet]

video/photo proof of everything is a great tip

[ripe spire]

If my aio radiator is at the top of my pc case, should the fans in the radiator be intake or exhaust?

[grizzled frost]

depends

[left dove]

although inadmissible in court if it's a 2-party consent and one party didn't consent

[grizzled frost]

usually exhaust

[plain cypress]

Exhaust is preferable

[ripe spire]

Why tho?

[inland perch]

exhaust would be better

[gloomy sleet]

usually exhaust since hot air goes upwards

[inland perch]

hot air rises

[gloomy sleet]

jury nullification 101

[grizzled frost]

what

that’s not what jury nullification is mate

[ripe spire]

I believe they’re currently intake fans, if I hover my hand over the very top of the case it feels cool

[gloomy sleet]

when something is legally wrong but the jury decides that the person who did it isn’t guilty

[dusty dew]

if she normalizes over time, cherish your time with her. You are lucky to have your mom with you still. As I lost mine 2 months ago in an accident without giving her the best tech stuff.

[clear spruce]

Whats this?, do i unscrew to check?

[gloomy sleet]

recording someone in a 2 party consent country/state is illegal but no way that’s getting through the jury

[grizzled frost]

if it’s inadmissible in court, the jury will never see the audio/video to begin with

[plain cypress]

1. Most configs tend to have cool air intake from front bottom, warm air exhaust out top/back. This is a general case design schema
2. Ideally you don't want to blow warm air from the radiator all over your motherboard and GPU, etc
3. Warm air does rise, however convection is a relatively weak force compared to a PC fan
4. Cat warmer

[gloomy sleet]

yeah but if she tries to get you arrested for recording without consent

is what i meant

[ripe spire]

I have no fans at the bottom of my pc, all at the side

[grizzled frost]

exceedingly rare and almost never happens

[rapid quarry]

Slice it in half with a cnc machine to see what it is

[ripe spire]

I don’t have a cat 😔

[plain cypress]

Yeah it depends on the case. Side intake and top exhaust would be the intended airflow path in this situation

[grizzled frost]

natural air convection is functionally irrelevant the moment you turn on a pc fan

[plain cypress]

Yes, so it shouldn't be taken into account when determining an actively cooled system

[ripe spire]

I have Phanteks G360A, looks like this

[plain cypress]

So to be clear, the intake is at the front, not the side

[ripe spire]

Is that big glass panel not called the “front” panel?

[plain cypress]

No...

[dusty dew]

its called the side panel

[plain cypress]

It's a side panel

[grizzled frost]

the thing with the 3 visible fans is the front panel

[ripe spire]

How do u distinguish between the glass one and the one on the back that hides crappy cable management

[fickle ivy]

canada

[grizzled frost]

both side panels

[plain cypress]

Call one glass and the other steel

[ripe spire]

Yikes, so u can’t distinguish between them?

[ripe spire]

Hm okay

[dusty dew]

usually the cable management area is metal

[plain cypress]

Or motherboard tray side panel

[fickle ivy]

i dont beleive they took the pc in as evidence, i have purchase history of the parts tho

[ripe spire]

Anyway this is off topic, so my aio radiator should be exhaust?

[south arrow]

Power side panel and mobo side panel ❤️

[plain cypress]

If it is at the top, exhaust is ideal

[fickle ivy]

exhaust

and slitghly lower speed if its a 360mm aio and you have 3 fans in the front and/or a fan in the back

[south arrow]

Psp

Msp

[south arrow]

Both is good

But typically exhaust

[fickle ivy]

looks like a wifi card to me but idk

[ripe spire]

Couldn’t rly find many photos and there’s too much light atm so my glass side panel is just reflection city

[ripe spire]

It’s a 240mm aio

[fickle ivy]

do you have a fan in the back?

[ripe spire]

I have 3 fans at the front, no fans at the back, bc I was told the difference wouldn’t rly be worth it

[fickle ivy]

yeah just do exhaust then

[south arrow]

Using it as intake looks funky but works as needed xD just get rid of the motherboard side panel and voila

[plain cypress]

Cat

[hybrid tendon]

Would y'all run a 4070 with a 9800x3d

[plain cypress]

No

[broken saffron]

yo tf is this

[plain cypress]

I wouldn't run a 4070 so my opinion is irrelevant

[south arrow]

Samples uwu, now if something you downloaded or came with the setup is another question xD

[ripe spire]

Hm okay

[hybrid tendon]

Mainly saying cause I was thinking of upgrading to the modern era of motherboards and that's the GPU I have

[ripe spire]

I’ve been doing this thing wrong the whole time then, my radiator fans have always been intake I’m pretty sure

[broken saffron]

idk what it is i opened file explorer and it just popped up. if i close windows and open it opens up again

[south arrow]

What does the samples say?

[broken saffron]

oh thats just my personal folder

[south arrow]

If it's hebsbzjiaia882b2sjjsjw probs trash

If it's like butterfly_01 probs just presets

[south arrow]

I don't want to tell you how to delete your essays sounds risky

Riskayy

theres no file open??

And for some reason if they press a file in the "Recent Files" tab once, then click it again. It plays a windows noise. Was wondering if anyone knows how to turn that off? Or fix it or whatever... if so thanks

[daring island]

My stuff is so cooked and convoluted I just let the Microsoft ppl fix it

You guys have any ergonomic mouse recommendations? (for office work)

[rigid gyro]

Check the labels on the cable or its packaging, certification labels can be "Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable" for HDMI 2.1, "Premium High Speed HDMI Cable" for 2.0, "High Speed HDMI Cable" for 1.4, and "Standard HDMI Cable" (or something similar) for anything older

[lapis condor]

"ibm street pic" on Google Images and it'll be a Reddit link

[rigid gyro]

The version could also sometimes be printed on the cable

[azure void]

it says high speed hdmi cable with ethernet

[hard inlet]

GUYSSS

[rigid gyro]

Then it's 1.4

[azure void]

does this support 1k 180hz?

[hard inlet]

i need help -

[clear spruce]

Whats this?

[azure void]

does it support 1080p 180hz?

[rigid gyro]

No, it only supports up to 120Hz for 1080p

[brazen glen]

I have a question in return: did you google the very large and obvious model number and manufacturer

[clear spruce]

Nope, already know what it is though

Mobile data modem

[brazen glen]

Then… Why ask???

Was this a pop quiz

[clear spruce]

[cosmic stratus]

Power gaming.... mentions ryzen 3

[cosmic stratus]

[restive swan]

Are the omen 15 laptops any good? Anyone used one before?

[bitter nimbus]

Thats an aincent modem lmao I havent seen any of those in anything newer than early 2000s

[cosmic stratus]

[restive swan]

I found one on marketplace for $150 bucks says it works it's got an i5 9th gen

[cosmic stratus]

[cosmic stratus]

[restive swan]

Don't know that's the issue this guy doesn't know what he's got

[kindred locust]

Hello

I’m going to get an m4 MacBook Air in like Black Friday

I’m done with windows laptops

I also have like Apple Watch iPad and iPhone I was just waiting for the M4

[kindred locust]

and AirPods like the whole ecosystem

[broken saffron]

nice

[broken saffron]

on the same boat

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/watcher-interfere-watcher-will-not-interfere-watcher-what-if-interfere-gif-24268184

[broken saffron]

heat and no battery

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1101247689712205896.gif?size=128&quality=lossless

[kindred locust]

True

I never liked windows laptops

I just had some games but not I realised I can still have the windows laptop for those games

And just use my MacBook for others

Ik not all windows laptops are like that but my laptop has a terrible screen and camera

[kindred locust]

Today we had online conference and I considered my iPad first

Was videos or movies iPad

[broken saffron]

hey you can still get good ones

[bitter nimbus]

Ironically I had the opposite experience with macbooks... but this was broadwell era

Which I feel like was sorta rock bottom for macbooks

[broken saffron]

@bitter nimbus which macbook was it

[bitter nimbus]

2015 macbook pro

[kindred locust]

The Operating system is a problem too not only build quality and others

[plain cypress]

Naw

[kindred locust]

I’m angry with the amount of ads

[broken saffron]

windows times better than macos bruh

[plain cypress]

2016 jony ives special refresh until the M series release was the dark era

[broken saffron]

try apple silicon

[plain cypress]

This actually had ports

[broken saffron]

i used to hate macbooks before i tried their own chips

now im buying one

[random gyro]

ay can i ask a linux related question here

[plain cypress]

The touch bar + lack of ports in the mid-late 2010s really soured a lot of users experience with Mac hardware

[broken saffron]

touch bar couldve been so goated

messed it up so bad

[plain cypress]

Yeah but apple did nothing with it

[bitter nimbus]

Yeah ive heard really good things about them, im on an i5 t480 now though and have a proper desktop so its getting me by for now

[plain cypress]

I should say, it wasn't the touch bar itself that was bad, it was that apple added it then forgot it existed

[bitter nimbus]

8th gen U series are so much better than the broadwell ones, either that or its just better cooled

[broken saffron]

yeah maybe when they reelase oled you can give it a shot

[broken saffron]

they pushed it for no reason hoenstly

[severe crystal]

for 400€ what gpu mobo and cpu should i get

[broken saffron]

same with apple intelligence

[kindred locust]

I prefer Mac

[broken saffron]

why

[plain cypress]

Seriously
And it was an additional expense

[kindred locust]

I liked the touch bar

[kindred locust]

For me it’s better

[broken saffron]

i wanted to like it

[broken saffron]

yeah why im asking

[plain cypress]

Touch bar and 3d touch never went anywhere
Good ideas, poor execution

[severe crystal]

for 400€ what gpu mobo and cpu should i get

[ripe spire]

What’s that

[left dove]

[plain cypress]

Oh I see

Congrats.

[ripe spire]

[ripe spire]

Annoyingly, it is MILES away from where the fan is going, hmm I’ll try my best to find a way on how to do this

That’s at the far bottom of my motherboard, the RGB fans I’m plugging in r for my radiator, at the top of my pc

[harsh whale]

[real lantern]

It's a motherboard manual......

[modest pivot]

[real lantern]

[azure topaz]
