[thin yacht]

Bro ☠️☠️☠️😭😭😭

[fickle ivy]

freinds quest 3

[thin yacht]

If ur mom is taking all ur shit away maybe you should crack open a book and do some math homework

Wait bro

[fickle ivy]

.

[thin yacht]

What do you wanna watch on YouTube I’ll screen record it for you 😂😂😂

You want skibidi toilet or smtn

I’ll record a few dozen YouTube shorts bro i always get the good family guy ones

[fickle ivy]

she smashed my pc ($2000 that was legally mine) because i was pn it when she got home

and assaulted me then called 911 and said i assaulted her

so tell me again that its my fault

[thin yacht]

Damn bro lowkey im here to help u log in but u should prolly see a therapist or call CPS or smtn

Here bro these are some quality shorts

[fickle ivy]

That's why im at my friends house

[fickle ivy]

[thin yacht]

U lowkey got bigger problems then ur google acct bro u should prolly sort that shit out then get a Phone or smtn

[fickle ivy]

my friend said he could get his old s20 fixed for me

[lapis talon]

I already have a rtx 2060 Super and a poco f6, I was planning on getting the RX 9070 XT but then I saw that I can afford the Galaxy S24 Ultra

[fickle ivy]

what would benifit you more

higher fps or a faster phone

[neat flame]

get the 9070xt

what price is it

[thin yacht]

Lowkey bro just buy an iPhone then sell the GPU and buy a Mac mini

Poco f6 that’s sum Chinese spyware get the iPhone 16e

[lapis talon]

$894 💀

[lapis talon]

dont really want an iphone

the f6 I got has basically the same processor but toned down a bit (SD 8s Gen 3) but obv cameras are wayyyy better on the s24u

[neat flame]

yea the s24u will also be way more stable

and 8 gen 3 is noticably better

[lapis talon]

problem is bottlenecking, I currently use a 1080p 165mhz monitor and even if I did get the gpu, I wouldnt be able to fully utilize it

[neat flame]

than 8s gen 3

[lapis talon]

yup

[fickle ivy]

165mhz

[neat flame]

thats a lot,what about 9070

[outer marlin]

is a core i3 5th gen a bottleneck with a 3070?

[lapis talon]

so I will have to spend $260 more for a monitor

[lapis talon]

around $830

[lapis talon]

hz***

[neat flame]

yea

[lapis talon]

2 reasons for the s24u are the camera and the reverse wireless charging as I have a galaxy watch 💀

[neat flame]

its just 2 cores bro

[outer marlin]

ik i was messing with yall

[lapis talon]

how big of a bottleneck would it be if I paired up my r5 7600 with the 9070xt

oh ill need to get a new psu as well

[fickle ivy]

my friend might be doing a 8600k with a 3070

[lapis talon]

the cost keeps going up 😭

[lapis talon]

oh wow

[neat flame]

no its fine

[outer marlin]

On a serious question whats the best (and affordable) gpu i could put with a i5 11th gen and 32 gb of ram

[lapis talon]

how fine exactly

[patent raptor]

RTX 5090 Chinese edition

[neat flame]

on 1440p its perfect

[lapis talon]

on 1080p

[fickle ivy]

Need sleep

i have school in 9 hours

[neat flame]

should work too, not really a bottleneck

[fickle ivy]

Didn't sleep last night

i am stupid

[lapis talon]

are you suuuureeeee

[neat flame]

yes

just dont use a bottleneck calculator

[outer marlin]

[lapis talon]

yeah Im not that dumb 😭

[swift moss]

i would switch to onshape but not enough tutorials lol

[solar moat]

100% there bottle neck

[formal sedge]

would repplacing entire mobo and battery in a laptop make it stop overheating??

because i just got back my old school laptop that was overheating, and the report sent from the tech place said they replaced all the heardware

[lapis talon]

I know it would bottleneck

but exactly how much at 1080p

[vivid pendant]

laptops run hot and most dont have thermal solutions enough to cool them right

could also be dried up thermal paste

[formal sedge]

i wasnt able to get the software to monitor CPU temps, but it was getting extrememly hot

[ebon marlin]

With a 8600k there shouldn't be any you should still get 100% of gpu usage but later when upgrading you'd notice a bigger performance increase from upgrading the cpu

[vivid pendant]

which software?

[formal sedge]

HWMonitor

i use that mainly for all my laptops

home laptops*

[ebon marlin]

That's completely unnecessary

Just clean the fans and heatsink and replace the thermal paste

[formal sedge]

i thought so too

the real test is will it overheat during a zoom lesson

thats when i noticed it was worst

or after running for an hour

the heat was noticibly better today tho, the table wasnt burning hot where it had been so thats a good sign lol

[ebon marlin]

Also make sure the laptop has room to get air in

[formal sedge]

...
ok so yk the like rubber pads on each corner of a laptop that raises it slightly
would it matter if those went poof

:3

[ebon marlin]

Yes kinda

[formal sedge]

well crap

[ebon marlin]

They raise the laptop so it can get air from the bottom

You can find replacements very easily snd for cheap

[formal sedge]

oh good

also idk if its just me
but yk those external pens laptops sometimes come with, like lenovo thinkapds
whenever my friends laptops went to get fixed, they would come back missing the pen
every time

[ebon marlin]

Why would you send it in with it

[formal sedge]

i didnt send it in, its a school provided laptop so our IT department on site handles all that stuff

i just turned it in to the main office and they did what they needed to do

but it was obvious there was smt wrong with the cooling of the laptop or smt bc the bottom was so much hotter than a friends one, and both laptops had been runnign the same programs, and been running almost the s same amounts of time

[solar moat]

cant say since it changes depending on workload

[vestal owl]

Am I missing a connection? It's a B450m Asus mother board. I feel like I should connect something to those pins by the battery

[unkempt timber]

Chat am I cooked? I'm pairing an x870e from asrock with the 9800x3d, literally after getting the parts I saw a video saying the issues with it lol

[tidal geyser]

You're fine

[tidal geyser]

Why such a expensive board

[unkempt timber]

because I wanted one

[thin yacht]

hi

[thin yacht]

lowkey after my first build ive always gotten the nicest motherboard possible, makes things a lot easier / nicer and cheap boards usually dont last

[peak knot]

What the taichi?

It’s a solid board

[unkempt timber]

the Nova

[tidal geyser]

Considering i have a army of cheap boards that are very very old it does not matter

Just about all boards should be fine with most cpus for its price range

[peak knot]

Oh that’s only a $350 board

That’s not that expensive

[unkempt timber]

I got it because it doesnt share the pcie lanes from the gpu

[peak knot]

… damn xoc boards run like 500-700

[unkempt timber]

but the point is

[thin yacht]

whatever works for you tbh, i just like getting the nice stuff esp for better onboard DAC/amp more usb, more fan ports more m.2 ports and way better software

[tidal geyser]

Software?

[unkempt timber]

Got this video from yt saying the 9800x3d dies on asrock mobos, but I think it depends either on the batch of my cpu or the bios (mostlikey) on my mobo. Some say that their cpu has the problem where they dont get enough power for it, others that they got a lot of power and burnt the chip

[tidal geyser]

O well have a look at the gigabyte b650 Eagle ax

[peak knot]

Just update the bios regularly and if it dies rma it through asrock

[thin yacht]

i would just send it worse scenario you RMA it which would be annoying, havent heard of this issue tho so idk how common it is

[unkempt timber]

I have that one, great mobo so far

[unkempt timber]

I think its to some specific users

[thin yacht]

gigabyte is so good, better than asus so far for me

[thin yacht]

if they havent had any major recalls or anything yet id just sent it lol unless you get unlucky and it happens to you

[peak knot]

Gigabyte makes solid mid tier boards

[unkempt timber]

hopefully not...

[left dove]

gimmebite

[thin yacht]

idk i really like mine over my asus, has more features and looks better

[peak knot]

Asus makes the best on avg top tier boards but your paying for it

Asrock makes decent mid tier boards also and then they make the OCF line which is just chefs kiss on ram overclocking

[thin yacht]

asrock is ass bro im sorry

at least the ones ive owned, MSI is also dogshit

[peak knot]

You don’t push hardware like I do

When push comes to shove asrock can make some baller hardware

The asrock z890 taichi OCF pretty much almost clean sweeps ram freq valids

Only z890 apex competes with it

[limber nacelle]

@formal sonnet https://www.facebook.com/share/1A6ZFjrkpQ/

75 cad 3050 🤔

on the island

[peak knot]

Trust as someone who has been sponsored by asus and gigabyte before this gen I want the asrock OCF the most

[livid fern]

FzR u are also CBB limited on z890 ocf
Am i right
With 285K

[limber nacelle]

not sure if u live near but decent deal

[peak knot]

No when I was running it we were sampled pre binned CPUs that were binned for core and CBB

They full pot

[livid fern]

Alrighty

[hexed tapir]

@peak knot as a tech hoarder what card will you use for physx titles ?

[peak knot]

3090

Or 3080ti 20gb

[livid fern]

Modded vram 🙂

[peak knot]

No

[livid fern]

we dont have 20gb tho. Alrighty checked
We do

[peak knot]

I do

It was a never released model but was officially made

[hexed tapir]

Kingpin 3090?

[livid fern]

Ah i see
Techpowerup has the specs
Interesting

[peak knot]

Tpus specs are wrong

They never got their final spec made

[livid fern]

So its slightly better than normal 3080 ti 12gb spec wise
Im assuming

[formal sonnet]

Oof. Gigabyte product. I'll pass. (Plus, it's a 3050 - my 2060 is more or less similar.)

No it crushes it

[hexed tapir]

Umm

[peak knot]

Look at digital signature

This is a non public driver

[hexed tapir]

Ah

[peak knot]

Well it’s public now if you know where to ask/look

But the 20gb can’t use normal drivers

Modern nvidia drivers work off a whitelist, and since this card was never made public it’s not on any whitelist for public drivers… so you have to use non retail drivers

[elder quarry]

Ooh

Nice

[limber nacelle]

I mean its aight for 75 doll hairs

[elder quarry]

What are these

[latent pasture]

indicator leds on the motherboard? the flare is just from the camera

[peak knot]

Those are called lights

[latent pasture]

no its not lazering you

[livid fern]

Ah
I see that it should be like ~5% worse than normal
Alrighty

[left dove]

😂

[peak knot]

They light up the motherboard lol

[latent pasture]

theyre just for lighting solely?

[elder quarry]

Ah

[peak knot]

Yeah it’s just rgb, when you take it at an angle the cover doesn’t diffuse the LEDs

[hexed tapir]

For faster booting times

Should change it to purple

[latent pasture]

wheres uv

Ram in slot 2 and 4

[vestal owl]

They are

[elder quarry]

No?

[tidal geyser]

Ummmmmm

[vestal owl]

I mean... I haven't touched rams

I've just changed the GPU and PSU

[elder quarry]

Then how have you built your computer

[tidal geyser]

Slot 2 and 4 in the direction you read

[elder quarry]

Ah

[hexed tapir]

What if they're Japanese?

[elder quarry]

[tidal geyser]

Or Arabic I think it is

[peak knot]

When you get asked to service a $500 firewall/router and they forget to give you the power brick…

[vestal owl]

I had the computer working before, with rams positioned as they rn

[tidal geyser]

Just wait

[elder quarry]

Just run 12 V through it

[tidal geyser]

Amps

[peak knot]

Nah it’s only 3a

I can very easily power it

[elder quarry]

can’t take that much ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[peak knot]

But I won’t

[elder quarry]

Ah

[peak knot]

I have a desktop Psu capable of 0-31V at 0-20A but I’m not gonna mess with it and risk owing $500 when I can just ask for the Psu

[vestal owl]

Rams are in 1 and 3 does make any sense to change it? Since it was working before with a different psu and gou

[peak knot]

[elder quarry]

It’s usually 2-4 though

[vestal owl]

There's nothing about this topic

[elder quarry]

🤔

[peak knot]

https://tenor.com/view/donald-trump-fake-news-gif-11382583

What’s the motherboard

[elder quarry]

Wrong person to say that

[hexed tapir]

Plug in your monitor to the GPU

[elder quarry]

(Not you, trump)

[peak knot]

It’s funny to call out bs with it lol

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/742709053985128498/846715660872056852/image0-12-1.gif

Agreed

I’m stealing it

[vestal owl]

I did it

[peak knot]

What motherboard

[hexed tapir]

If it's still broken, buy a new PC

[elder quarry]

Or do some simple troubleshooting, maybe a paperclip test?

[vestal owl]

HDD led is off as well... I've used the same cord to power both my hd and SSD, like the cord of pcie which have two ends

[peak knot]

Can you answer my question

[hexed tapir]

Or use the #1027757333117415424 channel for help

[dim patio]

I know this might be a bad question, but…
do I get amd or NVIDIA gpu for my first pc (800$ budget)

[elder quarry]

Amd

[latent pasture]

what country

[vestal owl]

B450m gaming br... It's a nightmare cause it's manual ain't the same as the model I have

[dim patio]

north Iraq

[dim patio]

reasons?

[elder quarry]

Possibly nvidia if cheap used

[dim patio]

no used pls

[elder quarry]

Better value at that price point (new)

[latent pasture]

nothing
u get based on whatever prices there are in ur stores

[dim patio]

all new pc

[hexed tapir]

Intel

[dim patio]

arc b850?

[elder quarry]

Mhm

[dim patio]

not available

[elder quarry]

What b850

[hexed tapir]

Arc b580 and Ryzen 5 7500f

[elder quarry]

That would be awesome

[dim patio]

Intel arc

[latent pasture]

what stores r u looking in

[peak knot]

straight from the manual

[dim patio]

not any specific ones

[elder quarry]

manual for the b450 gaming br

[latent pasture]

how do we know what prices then
unless ur ok with sending the price of every single gpu from rx 6600 to like 6900xt/7800xt/40700/5070 price region

or did u come in here hoping for an easy nobrain answer of amd vs nvidia and just ignoring price

[elder quarry]

It really isn’t very helpful to be here basically without any research done on your side (or not enough information provided), do you have pcpp or similar

[dim patio]

I found this store

they have way more NVIDIA ones tho

[supple gull]

Uh… i saw this on some guys YouTube video… seems concerning. Is PCAT wrong or Intel and Afterburner?

[elder quarry]

Are you really on iPad

[dim patio]

why?

i don’t have a pc

[unreal meadow]

Hi guys. I was inspecting my pc when i saw this on my GPU. What is this?

[dim patio]

or a laptop

[elder quarry]

Which one

[unreal meadow]

The metal seems to have something on it

[elder quarry]

I can’t see anything wrong

[vestal owl]

Thanks for saying to change the place of memories, it worked. You guys are amazing, wishi you the best

[elder quarry]

What

[elder quarry]

Nice

[unreal meadow]

There seems to be dots and patches of god knows what on the metal of my gpu

[elder quarry]

That’s fine, why bother with caring

[unreal meadow]

Oh i just thought something was wrong. What is it tho?

[latent pasture]

if ur too lazy to individually build, theres probably cheaper

[elder quarry]

Probably occurs when manufacturing

[random gyro]

is a ryzen 5 5600 okay or should i upgrade?

[latent pasture]

forgot to include price

[unreal meadow]

Oh okay. Thank you

[dim patio]

I would prefer building myself

[latent pasture]

wait nvm its not a prebuilt anyway just a bundle

[elder quarry]

It’s good, whatever you do, don’t ”upgrade” to 5700 or 5700G, 5700x is fine

[latent pasture]

i meant individually pick the parts from the site

[dim patio]

I think it’s better to buy from different stores, right?

so I can get cheapest

?

Thermalright peerless assasin

[drowsy flame]

I just wrote (used chat gpt to write) a powershell script that I can automate to run with windows task scheduler that will remind me to get off my computer and warn me that my computer will lock in 60 seconds. Kinda cool. Never needed to do something like this before but I figured now would he a fun time to make a custom little tool

[random gyro]

i don’t think i ever use my computer long enough for it to lock itself usually when i go to cook do anything i lock it myself

[elder quarry]

shutdown -t 60

[random gyro]

dude for 400k damnnnnn

[elder quarry]

Who

[random gyro]

kai cenat

[drowsy flame]

I wanted it to be a little more complex than that lol

[elder quarry]

Why do you want something to be complex

[drowsy flame]

I wanted to be able to have a GUI with “press F12 to cancel” and also a “Lock Now” button

At first I wrote it in batch 💀

[elder quarry]

Then you can just do shutdown -a to cancel and jusg go to the user menu

[elder quarry]

Why not

[drowsy flame]

I got it working but then I realized I could make it look a lot cleaner in powershell

But the batch one did do its job and was fine

[elder quarry]

Shutdown command is enough

Or just write it in python tbh

[drowsy flame]

This was my first code for it in batch

[elder quarry]

lol so unnecessary

[drowsy flame]

Basically the requirements are

1. Start minimized
2. Remove close button
3. Pop up with message that “System will lock in 60 seconds. Press F12 to cancel or click ‘x’ to lock now”

(If you press F12 I want it to prompt you to confirm before quitting timer)
4. Then I wanted a final warning before system either locks or goes to sleep which we you set it to

[elder quarry]

lol

[drowsy flame]

It got more complicated after that though

[elder quarry]

Rewrite this in python, much better, much simpler, much faster

[drowsy flame]

Well I already switched it to powershell and it’s a lot better

The batch would’ve worked just fine but now I’m just refining

One of the reasons I want it written in either batch or powershell is so it’s easy to put on any computer without having to install anything. I just want an executable that windows task scheduler can reference and start at a specific time

[random gyro]

i can’t watch streamers it’s overwhelming and it’s like they are trying to keep people with the attention span of a goldfish entertained

[random gyro]

just u

[mellow cairn]

It's not like that, it literally is that.

[elder quarry]

It’s not just him, it is like this, and I totally agree

[random gyro]

fuck it im pulling an all nighter

[elder quarry]

A what

Oh

I don’t understand what’s so fun about such streams, it’s just people screaming and doing stuff, doing their best to keep the users on the stream

[random gyro]

its because everyone waiting on playboi carti album

[elder quarry]

“He has his dm”, how would I know what you’re talking about if you don’t mention anything about it

[shy stream]

we are waiting on a music artist to release their album, we've been waiting for 5 years, he's saying he's going to release at 2 am central for me, but he hasn't released

I said that to myself about 30 mins ago

[placid cloud]

First time replacing/putting some thermal paste on a cpu

Gladly it works

[lapis condor]

I like the spot on the PCB for a GPU

[placid cloud]

Yeahh same

I was about to cry that my laptop didnt work

[worn spruce]

whats with a psu using eps and can it be used for other stuff or just leave it alone

[lapis condor]

What?
EPS is CPU power and is pinned only for that

[wispy thunder]

a LOT of laptops (particularly early to mid 2010s) had this

[lapis condor]

You can't plug that into anywhere else

[wispy thunder]

basically the era where Like GTX940M to like MX450 existed

[lapis condor]

Wonder if you could (provided you have the skills and tools required) shrimply just add one

[wispy thunder]

yes

well, you'd also need to source the heatsink for it

[harsh vector]

I’m planning to add some fans to blow the hot air out from my OLED monitor to prevent burn-in/temperature degradation. Are there any downsides to doing so?

[wispy thunder]

either get 5v fans designed for this, or get a PWM controller off aliexpress or smth

if not then your fans will likely not spin up

[harsh vector]

Any downsides to my monitor though?

[worn spruce]

ah so dont need to worry about it

[wispy thunder]

no

[inner veldt]

These dents are normal on heatpipes right?

[wispy thunder]

yes

[random gyro]

omg hes voice calling carti omg omg omg

[mellow cairn]

Noise/hackiness.

[mellow cairn]

I mean, possibly, but it wouldn't be worth it

[lapis condor]

Oh absolutely not worth it

[mellow cairn]

But you'd have to populate all the surface mount devices, which seems like.... A lot.

[sinful cobalt]

I should use the one Arctic P14 PWN i have around to do exactly just this

[wispy thunder]

you can rip em off donor boards

since only diff is layout but nvidia basically forces oems to use the same parts

[sinful cobalt]

i got my oled yesterday and everytime im away from the pc even for a short while I turn off the monitor

[wispy thunder]

just use a inactive timeout if you're worried

[white sphinx]

Do you have to subtract the voltage drop over the diode?

[mellow cairn]

Yes, but there's a lot to rip off. It's not a simple process. It's hours of skilled labor

[wispy thunder]

skilled if you wanna do it right

I'd imagine someone with minimal hot air station experience and the right tools could do it

[wheat torrent]

Bruh my server wasn't turning on made 5beeps, I reset CMOS, still 5 beeps...
I get a taxi and bring it to the service and when they try turning it on it works

Next time I'll beat the shit out of it before bringing it to the office

[mellow cairn]

And it would take longer and it's still extremely fiddly

[white sphinx]

Honestly the worst part would be finding uses for them, smd parts are a pain in the neck

[mellow cairn]

It's still skilled labor

Hand fixing anything SMD is for the birds.

Particularly ewaste grade laptops

[white sphinx]

Yeah unless you have one of those nifty heated tweazers

Even then, gonna kill a lot of components

[wispy thunder]

????

it's really hard to actually kill something if you have an ounce of sense...

[hoary tree]

I predict that Apple will face a massive class action lawsuit regarding their “AI” promises

[wispy thunder]

doubt it

[hoary tree]

They quite literally lied to everyone. There’s no way they’re going to get away with that

[wispy thunder]

companies do that all the time

hence why the age old adage never buy a product based on its promises

[hoary tree]

No, they don’t do this all the time.

[rigid fjord]

i'd imagine so

[wispy thunder]

Rabbit R1?

[hoary tree]

I personally don’t. But many people did. It doesn’t give a company free reign to lie about anything

[wispy thunder]

reviews so shit that it killed the company?

yet so big on promises?

oh wait it wasn't the rabbit r1

it was the humane pin

both - same story

[hoary tree]

You see, nobody bought these things

[wispy thunder]

7 million in sales ain't nobody

[hoary tree]

Tim Cook himself proclaimed that Apple intelligence has helped to sell more devices

Apple promised things and then failed to deliver them. They lied

As of now, apple doesn’t plan to release other features until 2027 in the earliest.

(Apple claimed all features would be out by march, this year)

[wheat torrent]

Why are nas so god damn expensive

230 USD is cheapest model they got in this one local store

[mellow cairn]

Because they are whole ass computers.

[wheat torrent]

Fair point

[wispy thunder]

The issue is if a class action came against Apple, by the time it'd be resolved Apple would have had enough time to acc launch the thing

[wheat torrent]

I feel like I can build a whole ass computer that is better for 250 usd

[wispy thunder]

Or there was Google pixel with uhm

yeah a lot of issues

I don't feel the need to mention it but Pixels literally had broken 911 dialing for a while - they didn't get sued for it

[wheat torrent]

Why they advertising 1gb of ddr4 like that is a lot

[wispy thunder]

that's what people do...

[wheat torrent]

[wispy thunder]

except you also lose hotswap drive bays

[wheat torrent]

I want to do the same but my server runs windows

[wispy thunder]

but yeah that's about it, people do that all the time

[wheat torrent]

Eh I don't hotswap

[wispy thunder]

like for media, you could set up jellyfin

[wheat torrent]

Is it possible to set up raid1 on Windows

[wispy thunder]

why

[wheat torrent]

Because I already have a server running windows

[wispy thunder]

then yes

[wheat torrent]

I don't want to build another server just for nas

[hoary tree]

Because a software bug isn’t equivalent to a company outright lying and misleading consumers about features they’re not actually going to get.

[wheat torrent]

If it's possible to use this one I would prefer that you know

[wispy thunder]

because a software bug costed lives

[hoary tree]

Apple also had issues with calls to 911

[wispy thunder]

no they didn't - not as a widespread issue anyway

[wheat torrent]

The famous MRI bug

[hoary tree]

Also, the false calls

[wispy thunder]

911 was broken for over a year

almost 2, actually

[hoary tree]

Press x for doubt

[wheat torrent]

I love getting radiated by 100 times than what I should

[wispy thunder]

https://www.androidauthority.com/psa-google-pixel-911-emergency-calling-issues-3362990/

[wheat torrent]

I hate how each smartphone has 911 implemented in different ways

[hoary tree]

Key word: some

[wheat torrent]

I had this shitty phone and it had the call emergency services right on the lockscreen

[wispy thunder]

sigh we're really gonna do this

[hoary tree]

I mean, you started this

[wheat torrent]

As a button, I accidentally called the emergency service while the phone was in my pocket

[wispy thunder]

Where are the apple reports about 911 failing

meanwhile for the better part of a year you could see case after case about "my 911 call got dropped" or "failed to dial"

[wheat torrent]

Apple has automatic 911 call on impact or something right

[wispy thunder]

they have to say "some" because saying any more than some means they know something nobody can really test

[wheat torrent]

I wonder how well that works

[wispy thunder]

but for all that we know - every pixel could've been affected

This is on top of normal calls also randomly being dropped

[hoary tree]

That could just be a reception problem then lol

[wispy thunder]

this is my own experience as well - I've had random call drops for seemingly no reason

nope! that's the fun part

What's the latest Pixel lawsuit...

I think it'd be the Pixel 4a being recalled for a fire hazard?

they pushed out an update that basically murdered the battery

oh and pixel 5a just dying because of a bad solder joint on the soc

pixel 8 having a shit designed screen which meant every single one of them built in the first 7 or so months will fail

Pixel 9 pro camera bar apparently falling off again

[lethal bay]

iirc 911 calls will use any available cell tower regardless of carrier, at least in the US

[wispy thunder]

^2G is also available for 911 as a fallback

[mellow cairn]

... out of second hand parts with no support or warranty

and no bespoke software

That is a completely different form factor

[wispy thunder]

oh and about pixels - Pixel team can't figure out the kernel for tensor chips and a single third party dev manages to fix every single performance issue

[mellow cairn]

I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, I'm saying that the products that are on the market aren't "overpriced", they just include things that maybe you don't need.

[random gyro]

midsung

[wispy thunder]

also Bob I see you've reacted to that message

lemme show you smth

https://www.androidauthority.com/google-pixel-display-stuttering-issue-fix-3522820/
Someone provides the solution to the issues

so it's in the issue tracker... and Google labels it as S3 Severity... or "just annoying but not important to fix"

[lethal bay]

I think phone wars might actually be more stupid than console wars

[wispy thunder]

the first time it was reported was over a year and a half ago and they marked it fixed

[trim idol]

I just buy my boring Samsung S-whatever every few years to do the same things at about the same speed that I did on the previous rectangle

[wispy thunder]

I think phone wars are funny when it's the users of each side hating on what they use

cause the ONLY reason I still use Pixel is that camera is unmatched

[trim idol]

I kinda got out of caring about phones when Windows Phone died 😭

[lethal bay]

As long as it has a decent camera, calls and texts, and scrolls socials I really don’t give a fuck ngl

[mellow cairn]

yeah I use pixels that are 1-2 gens behind, usually buy them second hand and outright

[wispy thunder]

If only Samsung would give me a normal sized phone that had a good ultrawide camera but NO they won't.

[lethal bay]

Bought this 12 Pro Max like 3.5 years ago and have no issues lmao

[mellow cairn]

The thing is, phones are almost all good enough - as long as it isn't cheap garbage, it's fine

[trim idol]

That's how to do it

[wispy thunder]

I got an 8 near launch just cause they promised 7 years updates

previous phone was getting tired anyways

[trim idol]

Yup. Most $300 phones are a ok

[lethal bay]

Apple Pay has me in a chokehold tho ngl

Like I know Google pay exists but like lol

[wispy thunder]

well guess what if you try to fix the Pixel yourself you lose access to google pay

[lethal bay]

Nice.

[trim idol]

I still use this weird piece of plastic in my pocket

[wispy thunder]

so fuck you anyways either you have a phone with buggy software or you have good software and STILL can't use the bloody thing cause it's not stock

[trim idol]

Sometimes I use this green paper stuff

[lethal bay]

but like at this point now I’m invested in the Apple ecosystem just enough to want to stay on iPhone so

My Apple Watch and AirPods are a daily use thing for me

[sinful cobalt]

heres to hoping I can use a 3.5mm adaptor and it isnt dogshit with a 2.5mm

[trim idol]

But don't I won't be using just green paper to buy things anymore!

[wispy thunder]

wait for what

[lethal bay]

Silent Alarms on the Apple Watch is peak

[wispy thunder]

2.5mm are usually balanced connectors

[sinful cobalt]

yea but I hope the adaptor isnt dogshit

[lapis condor]

I feel like I've seen more single ended 2.5mm than balanced

[wispy thunder]

why are you adapting 3.5 to 2.5

[trim idol]

what if, instead, it's horseshit?

[sinful cobalt]

2.5mm into 3.5mm

[wispy thunder]

yea for walkie talkies and stuff

[frail delta]

Ewww

[sinful cobalt]

theres no 2.5mm at the godarn store

[frail delta]

Extra ewww

[sinful cobalt]

so lowk might be F’d

[wispy thunder]

what has 2.5mm?

[trim idol]

Soon it will be Canadian monopoly money, though 🙂

[sinful cobalt]

2.5mm adaptor

[frail delta]

Moving? :p

[wispy thunder]

no like what has 2.5mm that you need the adapter for it

[trim idol]

Yup. Getting the heck out of Dodge

[sinful cobalt]

crinacle zero red iems

[wispy thunder]

those don't have 2.5mm bruh

That's 3.5mm

zero reds never came with a 2.5mm cable

and if you have a custom cable

go find the stock one

[sinful cobalt]

then my eyes see wrong

[wispy thunder]

jfc

[lethal bay]

happens a lot here tbh

[sinful cobalt]

mustve been the 2am energy afaik

[lapis condor]

Me when measure once cut 4 times and then give up

[trim idol]

This tale of 1mm has been riveting

[wispy thunder]

I need to sleep but my blood sugar is low so I'm grabbing a snack first

[wispy thunder]

aye man 1mm makes a big difference to stability and rigidity

[lapis condor]

Woe, orange juice upon thee

'pepsi is so unhealthy' and 'drink orange juice it's healthy' are my favourite funny sentences

[wispy thunder]

I'm not diabetic I have a fast metabolism and I didn't eat enough for dinner

[trim idol]

Me on Discord at 6 am thinking I'll be hanging with bright eyed Europeans, but what I get are sleep deprived West coasters 😂

[lapis condor]

Oh understandable

[sinful cobalt]

how apple feels after comparing iphone 16 3nm chip being 60% faster than iphone 13’s 5nm chip in GPU comparison

[lapis condor]

But also

Got damn orange juice has so much sugar in it it's insane

[wispy thunder]

yea

i love orange cream coke tho

if I wanted orange juice I'd just eat an orange

[trim idol]

Yum!

[wispy thunder]

at least I'd get the fibres with that too

[lethal bay]

laughs in east coaster with a job

[trim idol]

Hey, that's my laugh

[lethal bay]

clocked in 7 mins ago

[sinful cobalt]

im still drinking orange juice, peeling a orange is hard when my hands love cracking and potential “cuts” appear

[sinful cobalt]

clocked out 1 hr 2 min ago

[trim idol]

Hard at work, now?

[wispy thunder]

I got myself really nice hand soap it smells amazing and doesn't leave my hands dried and cracked

[lethal bay]

I clocked out 11.5 Hours ago. You do the math lmao.

[lethal bay]

of course

[sinful cobalt]

so did u clock in or out 7 mins ago

[trim idol]

You know you can cut oranges into wedges, right?

[lethal bay]

Clocked in 7 mins ago

[wispy thunder]

my hands now feel like my girlfriend's it's so soft I can finally be girlypop

[sinful cobalt]

ok wait i just realised that 11.5 hrs ago was yesterday

[wispy thunder]

bruh I'm acc high wtf is wrong with me

[sinful cobalt]

Where I would usually take oranges, we dont have a knife sharp enough to cut through the peel without struggling.

[wispy thunder]

laughs in 4am

[lethal bay]

yes

[lethal bay]

I work 6a-6:30p

[trim idol]

What horror is that?

[sinful cobalt]

So I normally stick to the bananas/pears bcs those are easy to eat unlike apples where all my teeth would be questioning why I ate the apple

[lethal bay]

Only working 3 days a week is gas dude

[trim idol]

I guess... I'd rather do 4 10s

[lethal bay]

Nah. Giving up a whole day for 4 extra hours? pass.

[sinful cobalt]

my internship was 7am-4pm with 5.5 days a week 💀

[lethal bay]

bro discovered adulthood

[wispy thunder]

7am is brutal

[trim idol]

My current schtick is closer to 5 4s though

[sinful cobalt]

i discovered how to automatically sleep when I did a 5:30am to 2am day

[wispy thunder]

oops woke my car

[lethal bay]

I did a 6a-11p a couple weeks ago lmao

[sinful cobalt]

but tbh yes I’d rather do 3x11hr over a 5x7hr (both assuming 1hr break)

[trim idol]

Ahhh youthfulness 🙂

[lethal bay]

I don’t think I’d do it again tbh. It was not nice.

[sleek ibex]

Oh dear..... Looks like the previous owner of that drive I'm using for the 440BX build has fallen victim to ransomware sometime in its life

[lethal bay]

On my 12 hour shifts I get 75 mins of break total but technically only 30 mins of that is my lunch break

[sinful cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/kamen-rider-build-gif-4529405226090931494

[trim idol]

Tbh, I didn't really know how much I work... Some weeks I probably put in 40, some are like 10

[wispy thunder]

ok 3 buns later I'm gonna sleep goodnight guys 😄

(and girls)

[mental mural]

Hi I was wondering what gpu I should get with a £1k budget or make any other changes. Thanks. https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/G6ZRC8

[sinful cobalt]

my 7-4 was basically a 15 min lunch break lmao

[lethal bay]

36 hours a week minimum for me, oftentimes more though.

[lethal bay]

That’s not legal lmao

assuming you’re in the US at least

[sinful cobalt]

Im from singapore, internship type shit lmao

[lethal bay]

Ah yeah idk Singaporean labor laws lol

[sinful cobalt]

I once worked 6x9hrs

[lapis condor]

Fibre slow down glucose uptake into body

[lethal bay]

Can’t imagine they’re worse than US labor laws though

[trim idol]

Do you already have some parts, or is this all new?

[lapis condor]

I love when that happens though

[sinful cobalt]

it is supposed to be illegal, but it cant be reinforced bcs of dark system (companies)

[mental mural]

All new

[lapis condor]

Blood sugar normal or high but feels similar to low

[trim idol]

And your total budget is 1000 pounds?

[sinful cobalt]

realistically some days i also did till 430 with no pay for the half hr

[mental mural]

Yes

[sleek ibex]

Welp that's not good ( ._.)

[mortal mantle]

should I put Win10 or Linux on the PC I only use because of it's DVD drive

[sinful cobalt]

linux to play around and experiment

[trim idol]

You'd benefit a lot more from going with a non-X3d VPU and putting more budget into your GPU

[mental mural]

5600x ?

[trim idol]

That'd be a ok

Though were it me, I'd really be looking to see how I could go AM5

[rigid fjord]

and sleep deprived brits

[magic night]

Can i put a Old gpu into a whole New build (New gpu taking a Week to get delivered ) or will it fry everything

[mortal mantle]

though Win10 GS on a Core 2 Duo (P8700) might be interesting

[mental mural]

That what I was thinking aswell but not sure on the gpu side

[mortal mantle]

you can

[magic night]

Its a dusty rx 570 xd

[lapis talon]

im on a 7600 though...

[ebon marlin]

Oh oops replied to the wrong person

[rigid fjord]

why cut when they peel into them

[lapis talon]

now should I go for the s24 ultra or the rx 9070 xt 💀

[mortal mantle]

how shit would Windows 10 on a C2D P8700 even be?

[magic night]

Is it a problem if its a dusty radeon rx 570?

[sinful cobalt]

9070xt

[mortal mantle]

no

[rigid fjord]

with this, a complete redesign, especially due to the ssd and ram choice

[lapis talon]

I wont be able to play games or use the phone for around 7 months anyway

because of exams

[sinful cobalt]

then get neither and save up lol

a basic phone gets shit done
prices will improve overtime in the gpu space

[lapis talon]

sadly not an option as the prices of the 9070xt are going to keep going up

[mortal mantle]

can Windows not be a snail

[lapis talon]

in my country***

[sinful cobalt]

u said ur not able to till 7 months

which is almost next year

[lapis talon]

well yes but the price of the 9070xt is not going to go down over here no matter when I get it

[sinful cobalt]

the rest of the product stack hasnt arrived anyway

[lapis talon]

in this country, if something is worth $300 on launch, its either going to stay at 300 or go up

[lapis talon]

well yes

[mortal mantle]

in my country anything that's high end is immediately 1000+

[lapis talon]

I already have a phone which has almost all the features that the s24 ultra has (minus the wireless charging, cameras and s pen)

[lapis talon]

us

this is the picture that the shop sent me 💀

I mean, if I get the 9070xt rn, itll be able to run future titles smoothly right?

[lethal bay]

We can’t predict the future

[lapis talon]

well yes but is it strong enough to pull through for the next few years?

my rtx 2060S 8gb lasted me 4+ years so far

[lethal bay]

It’s like the 5-6th strongest gaming gpu on the market rn so like probably

[mortal mantle]

yes

[rigid fjord]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/MTkdv4 @trim idol a touch over but still tweakable to fit in the budget

[ebon marlin]

2nd if you undervolt it

[lethal bay]

shit is not stronger than a 4090

[lapis talon]

heard you can undervolt it and then overclock it to be the same as 5080

the red devil one

[ebon marlin]

Is 5080 faster than a 4090?

[lethal bay]

no

[ebon marlin]

Then 3rd

[mortal mantle]

the 9070 XT is already overkill

[lapis talon]

anyways back to the main question, how bad will the bottleneck be if I paired it up with my r5 7600? Not planning on upgrading the CPU anytime soon

[rigid fjord]

tbf, 50 series nvidia is a hard avoid currently

[ebon marlin]

Nonexistent

[lapis talon]

1080p

[lethal bay]

9070XT is also technically slower than the XTX

[rigid fjord]

nope, people who ask about this really have no idea

[lethal bay]

dude stop get a B580 or some shit

do not buy a 9070XT for 1080p

[mortal mantle]

doesn't fucking matter

[lethal bay]

didn’t fucking ask dickhead??

[lapis talon]

will upgrade later this year

[lethal bay]

[lapis talon]

I really dont

[surreal comet]

🗿

[lethal bay]

1440p minimum

[lapis talon]

yeah, going for 1440p 180hz or 240hz if possible

[rigid fjord]

it'll be fine, and tbh, 1440p will be your better res for it

[lapis talon]

alright Ill get it

ty everyone

[mortal mantle]

Windows 10 was this big already?

[rigid fjord]

depending on which one, it can be anywhere between 6-8gb as an iso file

[clear hull]

hi rauko i was wondering what you think about getting 1x32gb patriot viper ddr5 instead of 2x16gb, so that the upgrade is cheaper down the line?

[mortal mantle]

it's 4,6GB

Windows 10 21H1 Pro

[rigid fjord]

it'll uncompress out to 6gb

[drowsy flame]

I think I’ve got my code running how I wanted

[dusky crest]

Why u blurring the stuff?

[strong orbit]

Does it actually lock the pc?

[drowsy flame]

Yes it does

[strong orbit]

Hell yea

[mortal mantle]

no point in showing it

[drowsy flame]

Now I can remind myself and force myself to get off the computer

[drowsy flame]

You can actually put the computer to sleep or even shut it down with a powershell command but I figured I’d start with locking it

[lapis condor]

Why would you hurt yourself with single channel

If you think you need more ram just get a 2x24GB kit and never upgrade again

[tardy jay]

Is the iPhone 16 good?

[sinful cobalt]

download more ram

[mortal mantle]

yes

[tardy jay]

Like I know it’s expensive but is it still an alright phone

[strong orbit]

Seems like a nice idea

[frail delta]

I would get a 15 Pro instead

[mortal mantle]

my bet 9GB fully installed

[drowsy flame]

Yeah, I’m gonna automate the powershell code to run with windows task scheduler to automatically kick me off my own computer at specific times

I can share the code when I’m done if anyone wants

[clear hull]

well, I looked at this video and the impact on performance doesn't seem too bad
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hr6p1tqeM3M&t=951s&pp=ygUUMiBzdGlja3Mgb2YgcmFtIHZzIDQ%3D

but that 2x24 option does sound nice

[strange adder]

is there some 9950x3d ram benchmarks ? picking up sticks atm wanna make sure i don't fuck it up

[frail topaz]

6000CL30 should be fine

[mortal mantle]

why the hell does Windows 10 install so quickly

[strange adder]

thinking of 6400 cl32

[frail topaz]

cz its tiny

[strange adder]

going 64gb

[frail topaz]

so ur a huge baller huh

should be fine if its just 2 sticks

[strange adder]

need it for work

[clear hull]

lol

classic

[random gyro]

Why doesn't amd have an alternative to Intel sst ble audio?

[strange adder]

otherwise wouldn't take 9950x3d ;p

[drowsy flame]

This is really cool

[honest gulch]

what in the random ahh source

[honest gulch]

get 2x16

[honest gulch]

this is so incredibly faked info

[clear hull]

you think the performance will be considerably worse in reality?

[dusky crest]

Wtf
That's evil

[sinful cobalt]

as a procrastinator i will very well press f12 asap

[dusky crest]

No point in blurring either

[rigid fjord]

you'd be better off getting a 2x 16gb kit

[honest gulch]

4 sticks performance is better than 2 sticks on am5? what a joke.

[mortal mantle]

why does this look so wrong

[clear hull]

i was questioning that too

[honest gulch]

just... dont use random yt videos as a source

[dusky crest]

That's my start menu

[lapis condor]

Did you know that the results for the majority of those channels are faked

[lapis condor]

Gl getting that to work

[lapis condor]

Especially good luck getting that to work lmao

[honest gulch]

on what

[strange adder]

?

[mortal mantle]

do you also not have any UWP apps except Windows Defender

[errant berry]

guys i need help , i have been searching for q good android browser with morden sleek design but advanced ad blocker, but it should be asthetic , should i use tor,brave,opera,or kiwi, but samsung internet,s ui is lovely 🥹?

[clear hull]

why would they do that 😮

that's rough

[mortal mantle]

oh what the hell ISO is 21H1 but Windows install is 22H2

[lethal bay]

Not guaranteed to work

Especially dual rank

[strange adder]

why ? checked mobo memory list

[lethal bay]

6400 is just not guaranteed on Zen 4 or 5

At least not in 1:1

[strange adder]

hmm good to know

[drowsy flame]

Yooooo this is great why didn’t I get into making custom programs sooner

[mortal mantle]

and ofc I do not have GPU drivers

[lethal bay]

you had Ethernet plugged in huh lol

[rigid fjord]

no, never
you'll see my message on this questioning it, tbh

especially when i state about the speed drops

[mortal mantle]

nope

[cyan bay]

does this give me better airflow?

[lethal bay]

[honest gulch]

zen5 its a gurantee

[honest gulch]

and most zen 4 should be able to do it

[lethal bay]

Absolutely not lmfao

[lethal bay]

incorrect

[honest gulch]

absolutely yes

[strange adder]

even if mobo lists it as compatible ?

[lethal bay]

Wait you’re the same dude that said every DDR5 kit had EXPO and XMP lmao

Yeah not talking to you

[lethal bay]

Mobo can do it, cpu may not

[strange adder]

9950x3d wont handle it ?

[lethal bay]

All Zen 4 and Zen 5 chips have the same IMC

It’s complete luck of the draw if your IMC can do 6400 1:1 or not

[lapis condor]

6400 on any amd system

[lapis condor]

Not in the good way, no

[strange adder]

ffs trying to find ram that was tested with mobo is difficult enough ;/

[mortal mantle]

how the fuck did Windows auto activate

[lethal bay]

Any 6000 CL30 kit is basically guaranteed to work, motherboard QVL’s are kind of a meme

[mortal mantle]

or download drivers

(since Windows Update is paused)

and apparently I fucked it by connecting a ethernet cable nice

[lapis condor]

Well done

[mortal mantle]

but how did I manage to do that

[lethal bay]

#tech-chat-1 message

[mortal mantle]

wait how did that not reinstall any crap

[mortal mantle]

I plugged one in

[bronze jay]

Is anyone awake that can hold my hand through creating a linux mint cinnamon boot drive

I really don't feel like struggling with it

[mortal mantle]

time to reinstall some necessary stripped out stuff

[turbid folio]

i’ve got my headphones plugged into the right one eighth

right*

[bronze jay]

I hate these

I have one too. It just doesn't fucking work

It's supposed to be fancy but instead it's broken

[turbid folio]

wdym?

[mortal mantle]

did you install the driver?

[bronze jay]

No

Do I have to?

I have an MSI MEG X570S ACE MAX

[turbid folio]

drivers are how the computer communicates with hardware

[mortal mantle]

yes

[bronze jay]

Not a flex. I just like the connectivity.

But next time I'm going to just go with the conventional wisdom and use adapters if I run out of ports

[strange adder]

corsair still doing good ram, or has it gone to shit like rest of their products ?

[lapis condor]

They never have done good ram

[mortal mantle]

why would DirectX ever be removed

[strange adder]

they used to

[dusky crest]

I have ltsc so yes

[mortal mantle]

and this was on Windows 10 22H2 btw

[sinful cobalt]

ive heard mobo audio is typically trash

[mortal mantle]

so yeah no bloat without LTSC is possible

[bronze jay]

iso is bootable flash drive right?

i'm trying to install mint cinnamon on a brand new drive

Microsoft annoyed me too many times

[mellow cairn]

uhhhh no

[bronze jay]

Mother fucker

[boreal vine]

no u need a boot loader for that

[mellow cairn]

You can extract an iso onto a flash drive to boot, for sure, but you don't just... put it on

[boreal vine]

I suggest using something like ventoy

[bronze jay]

Can someone please send me the proper tutorial

[boreal vine]

so that you can put different OS and Iso into one flashdrive and have the option to pick and choose

[mellow cairn]

literally google

[boreal vine]

or the simplest way to do it, is by using Balena

[boreal vine]

[bronze jay]

I just downloaded an ISO

am I still good to go so far

I thought it was like a windows ISO

[strange atlas]

Wait why is it this cheap???? its 1800 dollars

[boreal vine]

download the installer, pick the USB, drag and drop your OS' and ISO to the designated ISO fodler

[mellow cairn]

... which you ALSO need to use a tool to make a bootable USB

[mortal mantle]

that's not cheap

[strange atlas]

normally you couldnt find anything under 90k-100k

[bronze jay]

So actually what happened is I got ahead of myself

I should just keep watching the tutorial. Sorry for wasting your time

[boreal vine]

no, you essentially have done this but windows did it for you

rather microsoft

using their bootable media creation tool

[grizzled frost]

microsoft prefers they make the bootable usb, and not just give out the ISO

[boreal vine]

with linux OS you don't have that luxury so you have to do the etching yourself through tools like balena

[grizzled frost]

balena etcher my beloved

[boreal vine]

you can do either

Sorry

[boreal vine]

[rapid quarry]

@clear oasis thx

[hushed tundra]

Ngl roles should show up before names when you try to @

[mortal mantle]

they do

[strange atlas]

In ips monitor will my contrast be better or worse then a va monitor

[hushed tundra]

Not on mobile, at least for me

[mellow cairn]

yes

[cyan bay]

@hushed tundra this one

[hushed tundra]

Now I can’t even find the mod role while trying to mention

[mortal mantle]

I'm on mobile

[hushed tundra]

Weird

[mortal mantle]

same

[sinful cobalt]

fk these nvidia drivers

when tf can I find a yeston 9070xt

[grizzled frost]

when it’s in stock

[sinful cobalt]

every goddamn click is a blackscreen good job nvidia

[grizzled frost]

you on the most recent drivers?

[sinful cobalt]

yes

[grizzled frost]

use 566.36 instead

[sinful cobalt]

theh fixed nothing

[grizzled frost]

the most recent drivers are a bit buggy

remember to remove the original drivers as well

[real lantern]

microsoft please don't

[grizzled frost]

microsoft try not to add a feature literally no one asked for

[sinful cobalt]

this is not a bit

this is very buggy

[grizzled frost]

varies from person to person

on average it’s not all that buggy

you just got really unlucky

[sinful cobalt]

every click is a blackscreen lmao

ffs im gonna go take my b580 outta the itx

[grizzled frost]

use 566.36 instead

[sinful cobalt]

easy to say when every click and 2 seconds theres a blackscreen

[grizzled frost]

boot into safe mode then

[mortal mantle]

why is Windows 10 just as fast as Windows 7 WTF?

[gleaming rose]

because theyre the same internally

[mortal mantle]

that and I pulled the same move I did to the VM

[gleaming rose]

windows releases have been basically identical since XP

[sinful cobalt]

alright nvm im jst gonna go take the b580

[mortal mantle]

2% on a fucking core 2 duo

[gleaming rose]

isn't safelite glass poor quality

[grizzled frost]

probably

they’re basically the fast food of windshield replacement

they always advertise how fast they are, never how good they are

[strange atlas]

How many feets away are you all from your monitor

[grizzled frost]

cute car

[strange atlas]

Cause of my desk is small i'm 2 feet away from my monitor

[grizzled frost]

1.5 since i’m on a laptop rn

[strange atlas]

even closer then me damn

[grizzled frost]

2.5 feet from my desktop monitor usually

[strange atlas]

I'm not too far off then nice

I tought i was the only one that had to play this close

[mortal mantle]

why does a Core 2 Duo PC not feel slow

[strange atlas]

i do have core 2 duo pc it does feel slow

[mortal mantle]

not on Windows 10

[grizzled frost]

you must have low standards

[strange atlas]

even in linux it does feel slow

Even though i'm used to slow pcs it feels slow to me

[median warren]

Like, 1.5 yeah

[mortal mantle]

SSD?

[median warren]

I should be a little bit farther tho, its 34 inches

[mortal mantle]

like it's pretty usable

[strange atlas]

nope 5400 rpm hard drive

[mortal mantle]

(could also be because I'm using a heavily debloated Windows 10 install)

[strange atlas]

its a proper setup for the period

[sinful cobalt]

yea fk the nvidia drivers

[strange atlas]

https://tenor.com/view/smile-monkey-orangutan-smiliong-orangutan-ape-gif-21939747

[mortal mantle]

and I have a SSD in mine

[sinful cobalt]

ok fk ts im genuinely gonna go grab the b580 now

[grizzled frost]

cross posting servers is crazy

[mortal mantle]

boots up in 25 seconds

[tidal geyser]

kitten

[mortal mantle]

(to the desktop)

[grizzled frost]

nvme or sata

[mortal mantle]

2.5"

[tidal geyser]

nvme or sata

[mortal mantle]

sata

[tidal geyser]

dam

[grizzled frost]

pretty good

[tidal geyser]

better then a HDD

[clear hull]

so maybe it's better to get 2x32gb instead of worrying about bad 2x16gb ddr5 upgrade path

[grizzled frost]

2x32 will be more performant than 4x16

[mortal mantle]

desktop with a i7-8700k and a NVMe: 30 seconds
a fucking Laptop with a Core 2 Duo and a SATA SSD: 25 seconds

[tidal geyser]

do you need more then 32GB of ram?

[mortal mantle]

beat a fucking NVMe too

in boot up time

[sinful cobalt]

yes

[mortal mantle]

(including POST)

[high elm]

lol 4080 wins again

competition cant even get to the bloody desktop

[trim flicker]

Windows moment
