[plush wren]

if none of them boot to win11 then win11 is no more

[oblique jay]

Annoying. How can I nuke that drive then? Also I tried to reinstall 11 but it reinstalled 10

[sinful cobalt]

u buy a nuke and u send it to the coordinates u pit the drive-

[trail sedge]

Hi chat , what would be a good recommendation for a CPU for a build under 1100$ budget

[oblique jay]

I didn't nuke the w11 drive tho so how would it be gone

Only fresh installed the drive with w10

[trail sedge]

I’ve been thinking about an AM4cpu
Since they are good enough for this kind of builds

[elder quarry]

neiw

someone's gotta do it some day

[tidal geyser]

r5 7600 non x

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-blank-stare-linus-tech-tips-linus-ltt-gif-25512543

[elder quarry]

ncix tech tips

I remember that guy 🧓

[trail sedge]

Aight , do you think an AM4 is still worth the price in this day?
To me it seems a better option than intel for the moment for a budget pc

[elder quarry]

not new

[trail sedge]

As in second hand am4 cpu?

[elder quarry]

and motherboard and preferably RAM too

[warm lotus]

also what gpu are you planning to get

[elder quarry]

for cheap. at that budget you should go with am5

[trail sedge]

Fair enough , I’m looking for insight , a friend of mine is looking for an upgrade for his 2017 PC , but is on a 1100€ budget , I would make a build for him but am5 is the way to go, for future upgrade since it still have support for the upcoming years in terms of release for hardware

[trail sedge]

Either a 4060 or an and , I don’t plan on getting a 50 series ,
Maybe a used 30 series too

Doesn’t matter for the amd gen , a 6000 or 7000 is fine enough

[sinful cobalt]

7500f

[trail sedge]

Thank you

[sinful cobalt]

7500f and like a 7800xt is good

[indigo lintel]

12300f

[sinful cobalt]

Else if ur budget allows and u can find 1, 9070 is also good

[trail sedge]

What is the difference between the 7500f , non f version and the x version in depth

[sinful cobalt]

F is basically a 7600 but no igpu

[warm lotus]

didnt't all of them got sold out like instantly

[hybrid acorn]

I'm stuck for a GPU for my workstation/server/tinkerbox pc

[sinful cobalt]

x version is like a higher powered version of the cpu

[trail sedge]

Nah I’m not gonna get one , since he is on a budget and it’s the new gen so the price is for sure not gonna be MSRP

[sinful cobalt]

9070xt yes
base 9070 depends

[sinful cobalt]

7800xt is good enuf

[trail sedge]

Thank you

[tidal geyser]

you can make a GOOD pc for 1100 on am5?

[eternal cloak]

There's not much depth to it
Anything with an F-suffix doesn't have an iGPU
Anything with an X-suffix is a version of the same tier without a suffix but a higher bin (except the R5 5500 and R5 5700)

[trail sedge]

Yeah , that’s totally fine with me and my friend , he didn’t specify either Nvidia or amd , so for the price/performance ratio in a budget I was gonna go for an amd GPU

[warm lotus]

depends on what good means to you

[sinful cobalt]

7500f and 7800xt is a goated combo imo

[tidal geyser]

as in not on am4 even if that is good am5 is better

[trail sedge]

I think you can , it would be good for him if he want to get upgrade in the future for his CPU for exemple

[trail sedge]

Bet , I’ll look into it , thank you

[warm lotus]

for 1100, if your getting good deals on parts, it should easily be able to handle pretty much all games at 1080p maybe 1440p depending on the game

[sinful cobalt]

Even if he maxed out AM4 he wouldnt have anywhere to go (5800x3d)
7500f basically matches 5700x3d/5800x3d and has an upgrade path

[warm lotus]

although it can vary depending on location

[sinful cobalt]

if its 1100 USD it def can go 1440p

[trail sedge]

It’s especially an upgrade on an old pc he had from 2017 which can’t run modern games decently like valorant , lethal company and the finals for exemple (I know the finals is heavy on ray tracing and performance compared to the other games mentioned)
His pc can’t handle multi task and boot games in like 5min or so , slow as f

[trail sedge]

Yeah , that’s why I was leaning towards am 5 ,
I have an AM5 system myself , that’s stable and very good for my use

[sinful cobalt]

7500f is basically 400 fps valorant guaranteed

[warm lotus]

there are an abundance of options you could go for. If its purely for gaming a r5 7500-7600 could work

[trail sedge]

But his budget is what bothers me ,
For valorant I know since it’s not requiring top specs ,
I think he plays mostly forza , car racing games , but he also enjoy valorant , lethal company and such , so I’d want to get a build that is faster than his older one and much more reliable , he had few BSOD and a slow ahhhh pc

[warm lotus]

if the budget could fit it a r7 9700x would bbe great

[trail sedge]

Yeah , this is why I came to you guys , because yall are the goats and have good arguments/facts compared to some guide on internet , i prefer to come here so i can ask insights and your own experience and such

[trail sedge]

Nah , that’s too high for his budget rn , but it’s not out of the equation to upgrade the cpu in a future

[sinful cobalt]

with that budget he can get
7500f x 7800xt
b650/b850 mobo
850w psu unit
2tb storage
32gb ddr5 6000mhz/cl30 ram

[trail sedge]

Do you have a recommendation for a mobo
He won’t need super high speed Ethernet port, nor too many PCIE lanes , just enough for a GPU and one NVME drive

[sinful cobalt]

white or black?

[indigo lintel]

Every board has that

Asus or gigabyte

[sinful cobalt]

any b850 board basically suits that

[sinful cobalt]

asus get outta here breh

not joking here in sgp asus shit is so overpriced

[indigo lintel]

I've only used gigabyte

but apparently asus are good

[tidal geyser]

product not brand

[sinful cobalt]

“prime”
“msrp model”
proceeds to cost almost $300 sgd more than zotac

[tidal geyser]

you know 2 years ago asus was killing a good few X3D cpus

[trail sedge]

Black

[sinful cobalt]

he can go with the b850 aorus elite

[trail sedge]

I think the cheapest one , color won’t matter much

[indigo lintel]

I had no idea, but serves amd users right

[trail sedge]

Not the worst one tho , he still needs a decent one

[sinful cobalt]

b850 aorus elite from gigabyte is p’good

[tidal geyser]

non X3D were fine

[indigo lintel]

Most are descent
Usually Motherboard is motherboard

[trail sedge]

I know , I meant to fit the budget (1100$)

[indigo lintel]

serves amd x3d users right

[tidal geyser]

i think asus was alone one of them who over volted the cpu even more as they thought it was getting too little voltage during the whole cpu killing themselves fiasco

[sinful cobalt]

9800x3d with a x870 steel legend here havent had any problems lmao

[indigo lintel]

damn

[sinful cobalt]

they did some patch then told consumers to use at their own risk cuz it voids their warranty 💀

[indigo lintel]

bruh

https://tenor.com/view/rog-dog-theuben-gif-19684046

[sinful cobalt]

which is exactly why im never owning a asus product ever

[indigo lintel]

my 1070 was asus

[sinful cobalt]

overpriced and shit rma process

[indigo lintel]

other than that i've never used a single asus product

Wait my first mobo might've been asus
tho that was for an i3 2100

[sinful cobalt]

the only asus product in my household is the wifi

[indigo lintel]

ours too

[warm lotus]

does he care about rgb (case wise)

[trail sedge]

He want a good looking one , but he didn’t answer me on which style he prefer either a sober one or RGB , but I think RGB will be better for him
So for cooler I went with the phantom spirit over the pearless assassin

[elder quarry]

sober case?

like, free from RGB?

[sinful cobalt]

good choice on the phantom spirit

[lapis talon]

what about

the AOC Q27G4F

[tidal geyser]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/878018564030890038/996275659347337316/878724611720740925-1.gif

[trail sedge]

Yeah I have a phantom myself , it’s doing very well , especially for the price , I was debating on an noctua one but for the difference in cooling the phantom was enough for me

[trail sedge]

No more like a sober kind of style so without RBG , like fractal north cases or something among those lines

[sinful cobalt]

I had a phantom and it slapped my OC’d 5600

now I have a deepcool assasin 4 also decimating the 7600x PBO

[trail sedge]

GOAT

[sinful cobalt]

i still regret spending $170 sgd on it tho but wtv

[trail sedge]

do you have a ram recommendation for brand ?
G skills are good enough no?
I took your word for the ddr5 6000mhz cl30

[sinful cobalt]

The phantom spirit was too big lmao

[trail sedge]

[sinful cobalt]

Just go with any brand for ram tbh

they didnt have the ak400 digital

[trail sedge]

Get a bigger case smh
I have a fractal torrent so I have plenty space for this cooler

[lapis talon]

should I go for 300 cd/m² with HDR10 or 350cd/m² with HDR400

[sinful cobalt]

and the ak620 as well as the phantom spirit was too big

[sinful cobalt]

I was doing a ITX build with the CH160

[trail sedge]

[sinful cobalt]

well i did pay $170 sgd for a vapor chamber cpu cooler lmao

max on the PBO 7600x 64c

[lapis talon]

oh wow the price of the rtx 5070ti decreased in my country

its the same price as the RX 9070 XT now ($900)

[tidal geyser]

how many watts

[trail sedge]

Is the crucial p3 plus reliable as boot drive ?

[sinful cobalt]

good question i didnt check

[tidal geyser]

no

[indigo lintel]

N e ways
I installed my 5070ti yesterday, card fits but there's no way ill be able to mount the support as its meant to be screwed into the card and the end of the card lives above a drive rack
whaddo i do
I might have an idea but if anyone has suggestions...

[tidal geyser]

so how do you know the cooler is good

[elder quarry]

naur

[elder quarry]

e ways

[indigo lintel]

https://tenor.com/view/letter-e-gif-now-gif-letter-e-gif-for-messages-letter-e-gif-gif-7214154889011367575

[trail sedge]

Ok , what drive would you recommend , preferably an NVME 1TB
I know the 980 pro is pretty reliable in the 1TB format

[trail sedge]

Fair enough gentlemen’s

[tidal geyser]

sn580 or mp44l

[sinful cobalt]

because it cost me $170 sgd and uses a vapor chamber lmao

it has the screen displaying the cpu temp

[tidal geyser]

cool?

but again says nothing about its performance

[lapis talon]

which one should I go for

[tidal geyser]

up to you

[lapis talon]

in terms of performance?

[indigo lintel]

5070ti

if you got money to waste

[lapis talon]

Ive been wanting to use a radeon card for a while

[lapis talon]

theyre the same price

[sinful cobalt]

whatever fits the colour scheme of ur build better

[lapis talon]

but doesnt the 5070ti use a 12VHPWR

[sinful cobalt]

yes

[trail sedge]

Would you go for the sn580 over the SN770?

[indigo lintel]

5070ti

[tidal geyser]

so does the 9070 xt at least some versions

[tidal geyser]

cheapest

[thick jackal]

Isn't an issue, doesnt draw enough power to melt

[trail sedge]

Bet

[lapis talon]

the nitro+ has the 12vhpwr, but the PURE doesnt

[tidal geyser]

yus

[sinful cobalt]

9070xt ranges from 2x8pin to 3x8pin to 1x12vhpwr

[lapis talon]

I honestly like how the pure looks more than that zotac 5070ti

[sinful cobalt]

than get the pure

[lapis talon]

if I can even find the pure one in stock 😭

[eternal cloak]

That's an oof for sure

[lapis talon]

fr

[indigo lintel]

So what i was asking before about
It's kidna resting on that ledge as of now

[lapis talon]

planning on getting a new monitor, psu and the gpu

[trail sedge]

@sinful cobalt @tidal geyser @elder quarry What case would you recommend

[sinful cobalt]

holy trinity of cables powering that 12vhpwr

[tidal geyser]

xt pro ultra

[indigo lintel]

indeed, i might have to mount a fire extinguisher

[sinful cobalt]

whatever he likes

unless its a hyte y70

[sinful cobalt]

unless its a 5090 u dont need to

[indigo lintel]

In that case ill mount a firethrower

Or ill just get a 5090 for my fire extinguisher

[sinful cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/kamen-rider-build-kazumi-sawarti-kouhei-takeda-kamen-rider-grease-grease-gif-20202369

[trail sedge]

And for psu?
I was thinking a fractal ion gold 850W

[indigo lintel]

rest of the specs?

[sinful cobalt]

any A tier 850w does the job

[trail sedge]

Give me names , I don’t know the tiers

[warm lotus]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1akCHL7Vhzk_EhrpIGkz8zTEvYfLDcaSpZRB6Xt6JWkc/edit?gid=1973454078#gid=1973454078

psu tier list updated

[sinful cobalt]

lianli edge 850w gold/plat
superflower leadex 2 850w gold
corsair rmx 850w

[warm lotus]

i mean the build is not gonnna need 850w

or you goin for future proofy ness

[sinful cobalt]

i think their budget allows for A tier

850w psu*

[warm lotus]

but still 850 what is a lot for this buiild

[trail sedge]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pC96yW
does this sound good for you?

[elder quarry]

bleh bleh bleh fuck future proofing

if it works it works

you will probably not upgrade in like 6 years at least

[trail sedge]

Fair enough , if it goes boom at least we built a bomb

[elder quarry]

yeah lol

[trail sedge]

Which is enough to make us proud

[elder quarry]

and then the GPU's will be rated for very hgih

[sinful cobalt]

uh find 6000mhz cl30 cheapest u can get

idk abt there but corsair kinda overpriced

ok wait

whys that 7800xt $580+ usd dollars

a 7800xt here in SGP costs $650 SGD

And we have 19% tax

[latent pasture]

$135 for an 850w is shite

[indigo lintel]

i payed 200$ ;-;

[trail sedge]

Idk

[sinful cobalt]

try to find corsair alternatives

corsair is expensive ngl

[trail sedge]

I found rip jaw for 104$

There are silicon power or teamgroup ram but idk if they are reliable (if they don’t die quickly)

[indigo lintel]

Wait WHAT
You pay* 1300 for a rm850x?

[trail sedge]

Who?

[sinful cobalt]

u can get the lianli edge gold for $119 and save like $15

[trail sedge]

You just told me the Corsair one are overpriced 😭

[indigo lintel]

bruh wtf

[trail sedge]

Those are the same price on my list

[sinful cobalt]

oh

oh ur market’s fked up

[trail sedge]

Oof , in France they go for around 130€

[trail sedge]

[indigo lintel]

it's probably the swedish 25% tax

[trail sedge]

Fair

[indigo lintel]

i keep forgetting about it

[eternal cloak]

France has a 20% VAT as well lol

[trail sedge]

Now?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mGDWyW

[sinful cobalt]

singapore 19% tax
10% import
9% government service tax

[eternal cloak]

Not the worst I've seen

[trail sedge]

I’m learning Swedish , I’ll come visit you (you can be my wingman)

[indigo lintel]

lmao sure

[sinful cobalt]

try teamgroup or g skill

from what i see they’re cheaper

[trail sedge]

I put the Gskills , it’s ripjaws s5

[gusty wagon]

Why is everybody using American pricing when Kuwait has the strongest dollar

[trail sedge]

Or should I got with the flare instead of the s5

[eternal cloak]

Japan 10% sales, 10% import

[sinful cobalt]

whicever is cheaper

[indigo lintel]

https://tenor.com/view/okbp-gif-18692743

[trail sedge]

Don’t know

[indigo lintel]

everybody knows how much an american dollar is, no one knows how much a kuwait dollar is

[eternal cloak]

Because Kuwait doesn't have nukes, a passive aggressive military and the world's third-largest population

[indigo lintel]

it's the same reason we speak english and not swahili or something

[indigo lintel]

this lmao

[eternal cloak]

It's more about the stability of the nation and the currency rather than sheer value

[elder quarry]

who

[gusty wagon]

[indigo lintel]

No idea, but i know Usa VS Germany is 83-1

[oblique jay]

Ok so turns out I reinstalled windows on my 11 drive not my 10 drive so that's great.. Literally the opposite of what I wanted to do.

1. Can I get w11 back on this w10 drive now? I checked updates and doesnt say I can get w11
2. How can I wipe the other ssd of all it's data?

[elder quarry]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532914296502353930/1333352803317317673/attachment.gif

[indigo lintel]

1. Install win11 from usb stick
2. disk manager

[oblique jay]

I tried but it keeps installing win10

[indigo lintel]

tf

[oblique jay]

Unless Im doing something wrong

This is what I used

[indigo lintel]

yeah that should be correct

[sinful cobalt]

are u vegetarian with nap time

[oblique jay]

yeah I done it twice and It keeps putting me on w10

[gusty wagon]

No

[oblique jay]

How to do it from disk manager?

[sinful cobalt]

wait so y the diff

[indigo lintel]

oh yeah that

[gusty wagon]

That's a great question

[indigo lintel]

I think you can just straight up delete partitions of a drive

[gusty wagon]

Yeah, but people have said the onion is a satire website, so i highly doubt this article

[sinful cobalt]

like how im friends with him tho my first encounter with him he punched me in the nuts

[indigo lintel]

Tho dont try it if you're unsure of what you're doing lol

[gusty wagon]

To prevent torsion/abrasion, maybe an orchiectomy is in order?

[oblique jay]

Delete volume?

[gusty wagon]

The data will be gone when you delete the volume

[indigo lintel]

Thats how i did it

[oblique jay]

That's what I want

And then I just want to reinstall windows 11, but it keeps giving me w10

[gusty wagon]

Do you still want your old install and data?

[oblique jay]

Nope

I got token logged so wanted to wipe everything, and get w11 back

but I think I accidentally wiped the drive that had w11 on and it keeps replacing it with w10

[indigo lintel]

See if you can completely wipe that drive. Leave no partitions.
Wipe your install USB, and install new files onto it.

[elder quarry]

what have you downloaded

[oblique jay]

a macro from a game, from my friend

[gusty wagon]

Remove that partition, and create a new volume to store new data. After that, obtain a windows iso using microsoft's media creation tool, then mount it and install

[sinful cobalt]

freemoney.exe

[oblique jay]

But nothing happened till like 9 hours after getting it

[indigo lintel]

https://tenor.com/view/top-gun-icemav-top-gun-maverick-top-gun-maverick-funeral-funeral-gif-26848803

[trail sedge]

Do you have a recommendation for another gpu that’s a bit cheaper than the 7800XT?

[gusty wagon]

If you cannot install because microsoft gets in your way (as per usual), use rufus on a clean usb and skip the tpm 2.0 check. Reboot into that usb and either run an in-place upgrade, or perform an entirely clean install.

[gusty wagon]

A 6800XT

[sinful cobalt]

intel arc b580
6800xt
7700xt

[trail sedge]

[elder quarry]

images

cat

[devout oxide]

3080 refurb

You snipe them for like 400 bucks

Great deal imo

[oblique jay]

I deleted volume and just reformatted it or whatever it's called

[trail sedge]

Alright , I’ll look into it

[oblique jay]

Wont let me download the iso

Says its downloading then just stops

[gusty wagon]

[oblique jay]

Right how do I do it using rufus, u got a video I can follow?

[elder quarry]

e

it's so easy

learn how to press buttons

[elder quarry]

wong font

[sinful cobalt]

look at the bottom text

[elder quarry]

I can

[sinful cobalt]

as in below the big ones

[oblique jay]

ah I think I did the usb shit wrong earlier

Gonna retry it 😂

[gusty wagon]

If you're using an older platform/processor that does not meet microsoft's crypto/VBS requirements, you can try this:

https://www.makeuseof.com/rufus-bypass-tpm-secure-boot-requirements-windows-11/

[oblique jay]

I didnt get to this bit before I dont think

[tidal geyser]

and then you need to do it again and wipe the entire c drive

with some major updates

[oblique jay]

Afaik I wiped everything

[jagged hazel]

Good morning chat

[oblique jay]

I fresh installed on one drive and the other I just deleted the volume from disk manager or whatever

[gusty wagon]

When you sent that initial message, i was thinking of alcohol wipes

[dusky crest]

6000mt/s ddr3? Since when did that exist

[tidal geyser]

i5 7600

[devout oxide]

Why do people praise plex if u literally have to pay for the features u get for free on Jellyfin

[tidal geyser]

also that can do ddr4

but not that speed

[tidal geyser]

since plex

[devout oxide]

7600 probably does 2400 ?

[devout oxide]

Idk man

Seems dumb. Personally I’m doing it cause it’s cheap

I think I’ll sink like 200 bucks into a build then my only expenses will be drives and maybe a hba if I ever get to that point

[elder quarry]

yeah since plex

[devout oxide]

Is 24 gigs enough for true nas + Jellyfin

[elder quarry]

plex is chep

[elder quarry]

RAM? depends. probably.

[devout oxide]

140 may seem cheap but u fail to realize my broke ness

[oblique jay]

What do i need to select here?

[devout oxide]

Yea got a 16 and a 8 gig stick lmao

Slowly I’ll migrate to more 16 gig sticks

[elder quarry]

if you have 16 TB's of storage (or less) it will work

[grizzled frost]

pick the file that has the driver

[elder quarry]

ouch ram mixing

[oblique jay]

Unless I'm being stupid, I didn't instsll a driver I just installed the w11 installer to usb

[devout oxide]

It’s a server + the speed my cpu can use anyway is already so slow

[oblique jay]

No clue wtf I'm doing 😂

[devout oxide]

So I mean eh it’ll be
Mid at worst

I don’t understand the risk of it “it’ll run at the slowest ram speed” then just get the proper speed rams bruh

[oblique jay]

What "driver"? It's just a w11 install

[grizzled frost]

or not boot at all

[devout oxide]

We’ll see I guess

It’s ddr4 so it’s prob fine

[jagged hazel]

Sobbing

[elder quarry]

how much storage will you av

[elder quarry]

what's happening, Eric?

[devout oxide]

Rn I only have 4tb but I plan on expanding

[elder quarry]

it is fine

you are totally fine

[jagged hazel]

Nothing just watching this chat and other chat sometimes

[devout oxide]

But first I’ll buy a ssd, gpu, errr then more storage

[grizzled frost]

coffeee is giving me deja vu, i'm setting up truenas and plex with 8gb of ram and 4tb of storage rn

[devout oxide]

Craaaaazy

Buy another stick, it’s like 10 bucks

[grizzled frost]

i can't get my SMB shares to show up tho

[oblique jay]

Ahh.. do I need wifi driver or something?

[devout oxide]

Spent a whole 5 hours figuring that out yesterday

[jagged hazel]

Still reminds me of the time when I asked my friend If he had any extra office computers that I could run a server on and he offered me a dual xeon server

[iron glen]

the virus i downloaded is so virus even virus total can't comprehend how virus it is

[grizzled frost]

it's two 4gb sticks lol

[jagged hazel]

It had 64 gigs of ram if that ages it any

[grizzled frost]

dell thinkcenter moment

chassis and PSU swapped though

and cpu cooler

[devout oxide]

I really wanted a true server chassis but they were shit apparently

[grizzled frost]

i have a server rack so i really wanted to rack mount it

[devout oxide]

Like at my price point and what not

[jagged hazel]

"I have an HPE DL380 G9 with dual Xeon E5-2620 V4's and 64gb of ram. Doesn't have any drives though."

[devout oxide]

How often do hdd die

Like am I buying a new hdd every other month

[jagged hazel]

I just wanted something to run a minecraft server lol

[devout oxide]

Cause people say reduncy is important and now I’m getting scared I’m gonna be spending a shit ton on hdd every year

[iron glen]

whoops

[grizzled frost]

am i doing something wrong?

[bronze jay]

I "don't have permission" to write to my hard drive. Stupid shit. But I'll figure it out.

[jagged hazel]

I doubt it

[elder quarry]

just mirror it

[bronze jay]

This shit makes me so mad. I'll probably never go deeper than kubuntu because my emotional regulation isn't that good. I just get really pissed off and obsessed

[devout oxide]

My data is not important so I don’t want to waste money on redundancy

I’ll keep maybe a 2tb for redundancy

[grizzled frost]

i just use an old usb external hdd as my backup

i don't have anything particularly important so if i lose all my files it's annoying but not a big deal

[bronze jay]

I have a 500gb internal HDD from a laptop

[devout oxide]

But like refurb 12tb consumer how long do we think that lasts

[jagged hazel]

Real

[bronze jay]

It's more than enough to backup my system. It's games that take up space

[grizzled frost]

should last years

[jagged hazel]

Mhm

[bronze jay]

Can I reformat it or smth

[devout oxide]

YEARS!!?!?? Damn people got me worrying they last a couple months

[grizzled frost]

i'm using 2.2tb on my desktop alone, let alone all my media

[grizzled frost]

assuming you buy from a reputable retailer who isn't giving you shit drives

[bronze jay]

I was able to write with it when it was still a windows drive

[devout oxide]

Yea. Bought a 15 dollar 2tb recently off eBay we’ll see about that lmao

[bronze jay]

But then I changed it to Kubuntu in order to wipe it

[jagged hazel]

👀

15$ 2 tb yeah haha

[bronze jay]

How though

[devout oxide]

It was just an initial, reduce initial cost thing

[elder quarry]

I use like 1 tb currently. I reinstalled my system yesterday

[devout oxide]

All my next will be like refurb 6tb likely

[grizzled frost]

games, lots of games

[jagged hazel]

I have like

[grizzled frost]

i don't like deleting games, like ever

[devout oxide]

Cause 6 x 4 is 48tb and that seems like enough for me

[bronze jay]

I use less than 100 gigabytes

[grizzled frost]

i have a 4tb m.2 in my system

[jagged hazel]

300 gigs on my 1 tb drive and like another 300 gigs left on my 2 tb drive

[elder quarry]

you play NO games? that's one game.

[bronze jay]

That's why I have a big ssd

[jagged hazel]

So I've used like over 2 tb total

[bronze jay]

I'm not including games

[devout oxide]

I have a 2 and a 1 thinking about like putting a data ssd in the server then actually storing games on it and maybe setting up some networking so I can actually have like that fast storage but lowkey then why not just put the data ssd in the main rig

[jagged hazel]

90% of my used storage is games lol

[bronze jay]

I wish people would stop getting offended when I make a decision and they can't change my mind. It's frustrating. I'm not going to apologize for thinking differently.

[grizzled frost]

what would the default truenas password be when accessing an SMB share from windows explorer

i tried the username and password i use to log into the web GUI and it rejected it

[stable terrace]

Hi, i lost the pin of my windows pc and when i try to reset my password i recieve no email. Can i just reinstall windows from a usb or will my old windows still remain and how easily can i delete it then.

[oblique jay]

Anyone able to help with what drivers it's asking for? Im on a 13600k if that helps 🤷‍♂️

mobo is pro b760m-a wifi or something

[charred kiln]

looks like you used something like balena etcher to etch the iso into the drive @oblique jay

if you use something like rufus this wont pop up

[harsh whale]

Does the X3D CPUs still have the issue of blowing up?

[charred kiln]

depends

on which one and if u use an asrock mobo with an old bios

so basically no

[harsh whale]

Alright

[graceful girder]

[plush wren]

Discord removed PM/AM from time on messages

what the flip

[grizzled frost]

not for me

[charred kiln]

not for me

[harsh whale]

Are you high or sum?

[plush wren]

[charred kiln]

wtf

[grizzled frost]

do you have 24 hour time enabled?

[harsh whale]

Maybe cause you got vencord/betterdiscord

[plush wren]

idk but it was there yesterday lmao

[grizzled frost]

i was about to say, that aint the default discord black

[plush wren]

i just uninstalled it still not there lmfao

[harsh whale]

Wait one minute, and see if its gonna be 13:00

[plush wren]

t

yea it shows 13:00

[elder quarry]

WHAT IS IT

[harsh whale]

Dummy

[elder quarry]

oh god is it one pm

[plush wren]

it was there last night

[elder quarry]

already

[harsh whale]

Its two rn

[grizzled frost]

it just switched to 24 hour clock

[graceful girder]

I greeted u and u said "No."

[plush wren]

oh

[elder quarry]

no

[elder quarry]

hrllo

[harsh whale]

Why do you want 12-hour time if your in the EU (probably)

[green crown]

I still don't understand how people live with am/pm

[sinful cobalt]

no

[plush wren]

because im used to it and it looks weird without it now

[plush wren]

only thing I keep forgetting is which one is noon 12 pm or 12 am

[west estuary]

Rx 7800xt for 400 euros should i buy or nah?

[green crown]

Same that's why I use 24 hour clock

@clear canyon I really don't want to end on a sour note for no reason. I understand why you think the drive bay is a waste of money. You're right in that the solution for most people would be to just plug it in and not do this complicated bullshit. But for me, being able to slot the drive in like that makes me happy. I'm not doing it because it's necessary, I'm doing it because it makes me feel cool. I didn't mean to sound ungrateful for you help. It just really pisses me off that people refuse to accept that I have my own way of doing things. This was not the first time and won't be the last, and I'm still learning how to handle it.

I don't spend my money on eating out or collectables. I buy hardware that I enjoy using. That's just how I allocate my money, it's a hobby.

I should have been less aggressive in my responses. But I wish you would have been more accepting of my decisions.

[iron glen]

you two are still arguing???

[bronze jay]

No.

[elder quarry]

what's up

[graceful girder]

Just got back from the expo, they gave us a months long project

[bronze jay]

I'm trying to make amends. What happened last night was stupid.

[elder quarry]

nice

[iron glen]

last night was how many hours ago

[bronze jay]

Like 4

[graceful girder]

More work

[bronze jay]

6

[iron glen]

ah, it was this morning for me
i got confused

[bronze jay]

This same shit happened in the bicycle discord. People got really pissed that they couldn't convince me that making good food is worth my time. It's like just accept my decision. You don't have to argue with me about it

They also got mad that I put mirrors on my bicycle instead of turning around every 30 seconds

And they got mad that I was looking for handlebars that would line up with the angle of my wrists

[elder quarry]

Brilliant

[real lantern]

that's actually... genius

[bronze jay]

And in a different discord people got mad that I connected the steel trunk on my bicycle to the frame with a security chain

[kindred halo]

@tidal geyser @azure topaz
Asked if they can remove the 1660S, replace the 256 SSD & 500 HDD with one singular 512 SSD, and to replace the Cougar 650W with an A550BN

No images yet on what the E-Tech is, but if it's some shit airflow case I'll ask for something else

Thoughts? The intriguing part for me was the licensed software offers, those by themselves easily make it worth more than what I was able to build

[bronze jay]

They're discontinuing windows 10 support in October

[kindred halo]

I can ask for an 11 license

[bronze jay]

They want to spy on you with AI

[kindred halo]

What can ya do really, I don't want to use Linux

[bronze jay]

They know more people are using 10 than 11 and that's why they're pulling support. They've lost the plot

[bronze jay]

There are scripts and files you can run to get rid of the AI bullshit

Look up windows debloat on youtube

[kindred halo]

Thanks for the info

I'll do so in my freetime

[bronze jay]

You don't have to switch to Linux, I did it because I'm pissed off at Microsoft

[kindred halo]

Fair enough, I am too

W10 is like the 2nd most popular OS behind 7, and they're cutting support for profit

[bronze jay]

Your way is easier. Linux can be a fucking pain in the ass for no reason

[bronze jay]

Capitalism

[kindred halo]

Mhm

They could've just made a new version idk

[real lantern]

they did it's windows 11

and you can also pay for Enterprise LTSC

[bronze jay]

I only have 4 more Linux problems

[fallow yacht]

disable intel VMD/IRST on BIOS

it's no use for a consumer like us

[bronze jay]

Waking from sleep, writing backup drives, fps capped at 144, and having to replug the cable

[mellow cairn]

.... that's complete and total garbage

[oblique jay]

Ok Ill retry with that off

Where would it be

[mellow cairn]

The EOL for W10 has been set for literally years

[fallow yacht]

likely advanced section

[fallow yacht]

do people forget 10 is almost 10 years old already

[mellow cairn]

... except W11 is a free upgrade

[graceful girder]

SFF propaganda on my feed

[mellow cairn]

literally yes

[fallow yacht]

i probably remember using the creators update version

or maybe even the 1507 version on my lenovo g400

[graceful girder]

"upgrade"

[grizzled frost]

SFF best

[mellow cairn]

... regardless, it's still free.

[fallow yacht]

linux snob spotted

[bronze jay]

It's not an upgrade it's a downgrade

[graceful girder]

I could not do it

[bronze jay]

I use Linux out of spite

[mellow cairn]

I'm not saying Windows 11 is perfect omg, I'm saying that if you want to talk shit, be accurate

[fallow yacht]

people say that when they have skill issues

[graceful girder]

Windows 10 is better than 11

[fallow yacht]

it's literally a new ui change lmao

[graceful girder]

Didn't say anything about linux

[fallow yacht]

all the other features people shit on can be easily turned off

[brave brook]

i hate that modern definition of SFF is what would have been "big ITX PC" just few years ago

[bronze jay]

It's not that. It's the spyware and bloat. Both of which are fixable with custom programs btw

[fallow yacht]

and yet people bothered to install linux than turning features they hate

[oblique jay]

Advance - usb configuration- "XHCI Hand-off" is this it?

[bronze jay]

I could just use one of those but I'm too angry at Microsoft and now I want nothing to do with them

[fallow yacht]

ever heard of the off switch

[mellow cairn]

I use linux because it's good at a bunch of stuff and makes my life easier. We are not the same.

[oblique jay]

Msi pro b760m- a wifi

[bronze jay]

Ironically, I still use edge

[grizzled frost]

not long till win10 loses support, and consequently security updates

[fallow yacht]

no not usb config

[graceful girder]

Better telemetry
Fewer options to change the system
Less priveledge
Infinite ui glitches

[oblique jay]

Ah okay

[mellow cairn]

"Less priveledge" what?

[fallow yacht]

which can be FUCKING changed

[fallow yacht]

the section would be VMD config or IRST config or some shit

[mellow cairn]

But also you say this as if there's a magical way you can keep using windows 10, because if that WAS the case, the features you're bitching about would simply have been added to windows 10

[graceful girder]

I can't do as much in the terminal as I used to be able to, gotta do some shit where I'll be registered as a Microsoft admin or smt

[mellow cairn]

skill issue.

[fallow yacht]

fuck my face is there

[oblique jay]

VMD controller is already disabled

[graceful girder]

...no?

[bronze jay]

@mellow cairn is it okay if I dm you I've hit a Linux road bump and could really use some help. I have a couple of things I want to try first but I remember you saying you've used it for decades

[mellow cairn]

yes

[mellow cairn]

No, but you can ask me here

[bronze jay]

Ok

That's fair

[fallow yacht]

this is literally my windows 11 and i don't have any issues

[fallow yacht]

good now enter setup and it'll automatically detect your drives because it's using AHCI

[true stirrup]

No issues and windows in the same sentence 🤨

[oblique jay]

How will anything change? It eas disabled when I checked

[fallow yacht]

...oh

[oblique jay]

Yeha..😭

[fallow yacht]

try using the old setup ui since i can easily help you with that (accessible through the install now section or shit)

[oblique jay]

I could try rufus but I tried to download iso and it wasn't letting me

[bronze jay]

So my computer isn't waking from sleep properly and I've seen that one of the solutions might be to change the Nvidia driver, but I'm worried I'll brick the system a second time. I want to write to my backup drive, but since reformatting it to Kubuntu, I "don't have permission." Also, I keep having to replug my monitor for it to detect properly, but I think I'm just using a shitty cable. Lastly, my fps is capped at 144 when my monitor can go up to 240, not that's not the end of the world

[mellow cairn]

What specifically can't you do

[bronze jay]

I've been so stressed out lately. I just want my shit to work. I'm not asking it for much

[fallow yacht]

install iso from MS then put to USB thru rufus

[graceful girder]

https://distrowatch.org (:

[graceful girder]

Run python directly and change device drivers

[mellow cairn]

... you can run python on windows 11

[graceful girder]

By that I mean tweak them

[fallow yacht]

friendly reminder there's always an off switch in the telemetry

[graceful girder]

I couldn't run certain scripts as they required escalated priveledges

[mellow cairn]

also, what the fuck do you mean 'tweak device drivers'

[mellow cairn]

.... and you don't have local admin!?

and/or you don't understand how permissions work?

[true stirrup]

If you are the owner of the pc just give them to yourself

[bronze jay]

I always get the most uniquely infuriating computer problems

[mellow cairn]

You can just .... run a command line as administrator you know

[graceful girder]

Like I couldn't change the drivers of my bt adaptor and headphones

[graceful girder]

It just wouldn't let me

[mellow cairn]

yeah this sounds very much like a skill issue

[graceful girder]

If u say so blud

[mellow cairn]

I mean, I do say so, yes. Because you're talking about simple shit that you can't explain

[true stirrup]

https://tenor.com/view/simply-a-difference-skill-simply-a-difference-in-skill-gif-21335337

[mellow cairn]

your complaint seems to be "Windows 11 requires administrative priveleges to do administrative shit, and I fail at being admin"

[fallow yacht]

maybe he meant driver signature enforcement which yk can be easily turned off

[graceful girder]

It was literally the only account on the desktop how was it not admin?

And why does one thing invalidate everything else I mentioned?

[mellow cairn]

.... you don't understand how admin works on windows, fundamentally

[fallow yacht]

lol

[true stirrup]

Because you still need to give that account certain privileges

[graceful girder]

So what ur saying is I booted into it with absolutely no admin account present and that's that?

[bronze jay]

I was arguing with someone and saying that it's not normies fault they can't use Linux and they're like oh by the way my computer doesn't wake from sleep properly but that's okay

That's not okay, that's the kind of bullshit I'm talking about

[mellow cairn]

no, I'm saying that your standard session doesn't have administrative priveleges, and you need to SPECIFICALLY run things as administrator.

[graceful girder]

FROM WHERE!? The account?

[true stirrup]

From settings

[true stirrup]

Or that

[mellow cairn]

ZOMG

[fallow yacht]

well tbh windows 10 doesn't look that old that's why people don't realize it's already 10 years old

[mellow cairn]

also - this isn't a change in windows 11. EAC was in windows 10.

[graceful girder]

I don't think u understand
No admin account=restrictions

[mellow cairn]

It is you who doesn't understand

[graceful girder]

Omg bro, yk what
If u say so

[mellow cairn]

This is not different for windows 10 vs 11

[true stirrup]

Your account doesn't have to be an administrator to actually give yourself permissions for administrator stuff

[grizzled frost]

it's generally ill advised to run everything as an admin

[graceful girder]

And when it asks for a password and rejects urs what do u do?

[mellow cairn]

again, I do say so. Your complaints about windows 11 make no sense

[grizzled frost]

makes it far easier to be compromised or mess stuff up yourself

[true stirrup]

Reinstall windows because you clearly forgot it

[mellow cairn]

When does it ask for a password?

[graceful girder]

If u say so

[fallow yacht]

are you even this much of a twat to not go to this

[graceful girder]

Are u unable to read?

[graceful girder]

Are u unable to read?

[fallow yacht]

we meant admin acct not running everything as admin

[mellow cairn]

No, I never learned to read.

[graceful girder]

Awesome

[supple tide]

what gpu do yall recommend for a 1k build am5?

[mellow cairn]

I mean, I've been using windows for longer than you've been alive....

It's possible that you might not know what you're talking about

[graceful girder]

Yet somehow are unable to read

[fallow yacht]

so you're trying to run administrator privileges in a user account? how are you this moronic

[graceful girder]

Was my phrasing incorrect? Did I stutter?

[true stirrup]

Country?

[mellow cairn]

You haven't actually said anything specific, it's all vague shit like "it doesn't work"

[fallow yacht]

WHO TF runs admin privileges from a normal account LMAO

only an admin acc can run it that's how shit works

[graceful girder]

Literally just said...yk what, ur correct and I'm wrong

Can I leave now?

[mellow cairn]

You could always leave

[graceful girder]

I said there was no admin account

But of course I am unable to write

Now I shall leave and this conversation will end

[fallow yacht]

this is not an airport

[mellow cairn]

.... so what happened when you "run as administrator" ?

Explosions?

[graceful girder]

How about u scroll up

[gusty wagon]

It doesn't happen

sysadmins don't run

[mellow cairn]

sometimes they do, and if you see it - keep up. (it won't be hard)

[fallow yacht]

jk

[true stirrup]

They can see logs lol

[fallow yacht]

i know

they probably seen that corny joke a million times now

[mellow cairn]

look I don't know what the hell actually happened to whatever the fuck you did, but it's absolutely NOT a windows 11 problem, it's a YOU problem.

[fallow yacht]

it's a stereotype for a reason

[graceful girder]

"Just blame the user"

[mellow cairn]

Yeah man, you gotta register as a microsoft admin

[true stirrup]

Well none of us had any issues you described

[graceful girder]

Does that invalidate that I did?

[mellow cairn]

nothing you said makes any sense at all. You have given no direct references to any errors or details that are even possible.

wait... did you run some sort of half baked debloating bullshit on windows 11

[true stirrup]

It means it was your issue not Win11 issue

[sleek ibex]

[graceful girder]

Ok bro, guess that's that

[mellow cairn]

Given that whatever vaguely defined issues you have aren't experienced by other people on windows 11, it isn't a "windows 11 issue". That's how issues work.

[true stirrup]

You got it right

[mellow cairn]

so I was right, skill issue.

what's happening, back

oh lol

[elder quarry]

not that I've "hacked" my windows installations multiple times

but yeah it's possible

[mellow cairn]

You can do that, go for it. Just don't blame windows or other people when you fuck it.

[elder quarry]

oh, I thought we talked about admin privs on a normal account

[sleek ibex]

Where do these "dBL0atING wiNDUhs 11" folks keep coming from?!

[fallow yacht]

that was the part of it

[sleek ibex]

[mellow cairn]

oh, well the core problem is "debloating" garbage

[fallow yacht]

gamers as always

they think they know IT but they actually suck at one

[elder quarry]

just replace "sethc.exe" in the command prompt at recovery and give yourself admin

[fallow yacht]

autounattend.xml >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any custom fucking debloater script/iso or tools or whatever the fuck that is

[elder quarry]

if you're in need of a operating system that can handle weaker hardware just switch to linux

[fallow yacht]

if you have 1 acct it's already admin lmao

[elder quarry]

no, you can accidentally change that by using scripts, like debloater scripts

[true stirrup]

And you can change it back

usually

[elder quarry]

I haven't read context, but maybe his parents has just installed some parental control app and he wanna destroy it

[true stirrup]

Nope he just debloated windows

[elder quarry]

lol

[kindred halo]

Okay I did 💔

[nimble burrow]

Impressive what a 6.8 year old flagship can do (linus has one)

[fallow yacht]

ik you're tired of reading this again but ||autounattend.xml|| is underrated af and should be the only debloater tool

[true stirrup]

I don't touch any debloating whatsoever
I really don't care enough to bother with that lol

[oblique jay]

Well I'm stuck on what to do

Tried to use rufu still getting the same tjing

[elder quarry]

don't call it "debloating", it's just removing programs on install that you can't remove later

[true stirrup]

What thing?

[oblique jay]

This

[thin oak]

let say I remove the hdmi cable from my monitor when my pc is running, rotate my monitor 180 degree and put the hdmi cable again in the monitor will this break anything?

[sleek ibex]

If you're considering "debloating Windows 11"....... We're now starting to enter "Just use something like fucking Ubuntu ATP" territory

[true stirrup]

Can you not skip that step?

[bronze summit]

Desperate to make a quick buck I see

[oblique jay]

Nope

I tried media download on usb and iso with rufus

[scarlet rain]

what port is this on my A1 mini 3d printer?

[elder quarry]

ethernet /j

obviously

[sleek ibex]

Whenever I see someone wanting to do so next time, I'll just respond with "Just use Ubuntu"

Debloating Windows is just a shit storm waiting to happen

[warm lotus]

extra cpu power port

[true stirrup]

Just use freedos if you are so worried about debloating

[scarlet rain]

bruh

[warm lotus]

🤣

[elder quarry]

fr

[real lantern]

debloating windows as in deleting edge or as downloading custom ISOs?

[elder quarry]

or normal ms-dos

[sleek ibex]

The latter

[elder quarry]

make your own ISO, with autounattend

[real lantern]

most of them only delete UAC and inject lots of malware

[elder quarry]

we don't have such bullshit on linux )::

that's awesome

thanks linus with the weird pronunciation

[sleek ibex]

That's the problem, yes it does work but I can tell you that the vast majority of folks can't even do that particularly well

[kindred halo]

Okay little update on this thing
Managed to swap out the 256GB SSD & 500GB HDD for one 512GB SATA, so that's something

The Cougar PSU is a VTE which has a C rating by the PDF that sim usually sends

[elder quarry]

I have done it multiple times

[kindred halo]

Case is a bit ass due to glass front panel instead of mesh but I can work with it

if I can do it, anyone can

This used system above, sort of caught my attention

[real lantern]

This listing includes too much garbage

[kindred halo]

Explain?

[real lantern]

all the software he is talking about is worth nothing

driver booster pro is garbage it provide no use and boggs down your system

and windows/office is free by a method that linus showcased himself (piracy)

[elder quarry]

office and windows is pirated and illegal to sell and use to my understanding of the EULA

[real lantern]

yeah, but the worst offender is the garbage iobit software

[kindred halo]

I know, but I am talking about actual licensed software

[real lantern]

it's your money

[kindred halo]

They work for a tech store, so I'd atleast trust that it isn't pirated / fake (as in, just lying)

[reef tiger]

It can be licensed by methods of piracy.

[elder quarry]

yeah

[kindred halo]

Hm, fair enough.

[reef tiger]

Oh wow because no tech store would ever do anything like that to make a few extra hundred? Dont be so naive

[rigid thistle]

I doubt they’re going out and paying 100+ for every system, they’re trying to make as much money as possible

[kindred halo]

They're a reputable place, I've worked with them before

I know what you mean, but I am sure of their credibility

[reef tiger]

They can be reputable and also just use the microsoft activation script. Its a business, quit trying to defend them like a friend lol

[kindred halo]

Hhhhh fair enough

[reef tiger]

The giveaway is the office license

They dont do OEM keys for office anymore

[real lantern]

it's iobit software for me i can't even emphasize how bad iobit is

[reef tiger]

Oh dont get me started

[rigid thistle]

They could’ve at least gave you a bit more hardware for that money, but under 500 is a bit of a dead zone

[reef tiger]

Its common for sellers to throw random pirated stuff onto old PCs. It makes it look like a btter deal if it includes $600 of random software

[real lantern]

He also makes you choose 2 out of the 3 like he isn't pirating it

[rigid thistle]

Lmao

[covert torrent]

is windows x lite legit?

[rigid thistle]

What

[reef tiger]

Back in the day people used to load pirated ilife, final cut, aperture, office, and the adobe suite onto old Powermacs and sell them for over double what theyre worth

[kindred halo]

I'll just stick with the other computer that I (planned) built for 380 ig
R5 3600, A550M, 2x8GB, and a 2070

[rigid thistle]

Yea that’s much better

[reef tiger]

Thats the best idea

[rigid thistle]

Well cpu is similar, gpu is much better

[reef tiger]

Like so so so much better

[kindred halo]

For the same price as his I can use a 512GB ADATA Legend NVME & a Hikvision E100 SATA

Whilst having a better case for airflow

[real lantern]

Please do not install debloated windows, I am begging you do not install debloated windows use ubuntu or windows Enterprise LTSC

[kindred halo]

Lemme show you the one he sent rq

This is his

[covert torrent]

i'm asking if it's legit or not

[kindred halo]

The yikes was the glass front

[covert torrent]

i've seen benchmarks but i'm asking if it's safe to install

[rigid thistle]

They basically just said it isn’t

[kindred halo]

-And this is what I chose (Mesh front)

[real lantern]

no it's not all debloated versions of windows are lies they disable UAC (Security protection) and they're filled with malware (most of them)

[covert torrent]

i'm asking about windows x lite in particular, not the whole costum iso scene

[kindred halo]

Here's the full spec list till now
-R5 3600
-ASRock A550M-HDV
-Kingston 3200MHz 2x8GB DDR4
-Gigabyte RTX 2070 3 Fanner
-Adata Legend 710 512GB M.2
-HikVision E100 / Aspire 1TB SATA SSD
-MSI MAG A550BN
-Xigmatek Nyx Air II
Total for all is around ~445

[real lantern]

i dont have knowledge about windows x lite but use your common sense

[elder quarry]

sdfghjklö

[real lantern]

if you're trying to get a special lite fast version of windows use enterprise ltsc

[covert torrent]

Then don't try to answer something you're uneducated on, i was asking about windows x lite in particular

[green crown]

Probably not

Again use common sense

Google it and find more than 1 persom/ idk that says it's safe

[rigid thistle]

It’s clearly not from Microsoft

[green crown]

Why do you need it in the first place

[real lantern]

the short answer it's not

[vale wing]

okay so im working on a budget pc and im seeing how much money I can avoid spending, this is what i have so far:
-gtx 1050ti
-gigabyte am4 motherboard from 2017
-a case
-1tb hard drive
-cooler + fan

things needed:
-psu
-cpu

should i jus get a like cheap aliexpress psu and get a ryzen 3 pro 1500 or something

[true stirrup]

budget?

[vale wing]

as cheap as humanly possible

[sinful cobalt]

rgb tax even the stealth cooler aint safe

[vale wing]

like $60

[kindred halo]

Yeah I already changed my mind about it

[sinful cobalt]

finna get that mini neutron bomb psu

[true stirrup]

the stuff you listed above is over that

[real lantern]

you don't need a case

[vale wing]

aliexpress 💔

[kindred halo]

He said he just needs a psu and cpu

[green crown]

Too expensive use alibaba

[kindred halo]

Which is doable for 100 I guess

[real lantern]

alibaba is wholesale....

[kindred halo]

What's an R5 3600 cost for you

[vale wing]

let me check

[green crown]

If u want a bomb for a psu it's doable

[vale wing]

$46

[plush wren]

team get your money up

[kindred halo]

So 54 dollars for a PSU

One second

if you make your child or anyone under the age of 18 a bank accound with your info you can choose to put a limit on the card(the spending limit + how much can be on the card ig), instead of telling you "if you add this money you'll be over your limit" it just makes it dissapear
idk where it went but its gone now so :/

[plush wren]

[vale wing]

the humble ryzen 3 1200:

[plush wren]

i got probably like 400 gifs on discord

[real lantern]

That doesn’t make it any less impressive

[kindred halo]

Okay for 125 I can get a 5600X

BUT I'll have to sacrifice storage and use what I already own

[real lantern]

Can you like share?

[kindred halo]

Aka a 2008 Enterprise 1000GB HDD & a SATA 240GB SSD

I can upgrade the storage later on
So, should I get the 5600X?

12 Dollar difference (5600X with no storage is cheaper)

[real lantern]

I have a cat hawk Tuah meme here somewhere

[median warren]

I'm also working in this case that came out like 2017, and was also quite cheap, so it's not exactly the most convenient one for cable management

[plush wren]

antec c8 wood is ok but i personally cant be bothered routing these fan cables

Oh I'm doing those now
