[vale wing]

literally just gonna be my fodder cpu until i can get something nicer

[azure topaz]

shit where

[limber nacelle]

got yo ass

[azure topaz]

FUCK

[vale wing]

so far ive acquired:
-free pc case (old ass phanteks case)
-free cpu (ryzen 3 1200)
-free gpu (gtx 1050ti)

• free ram (16gb vulcan ddr4)
• free mobo (gigabyte ga-ab350 gaming 3)

now need:

• maybe slightly better cpu
• psu

and maybe a like

gtx 1660

[dark comet]

what games are you running with a gtx 1660

[vale wing]

i don't play anything intensive even on my main rig

I'd probably use it as a backup pc if my main rig goes again

last time my main rig went down it went down for five months because i was just busy asf

[dark comet]

Thats a lot of free stuff damn

[limber nacelle]

having a secondary rig is nice for this reason

[snow kettle]

oh my god the 1050 ti is almost a decade old now

[vale wing]

its from a really long time ago, my dad built it for me

[snow kettle]

i remember going to best buy and buying that in feb 2017, 8 years ago 💀

[vale wing]

i was thinking i should put a 20 series card in

like a 2070 or something

and a ryzen 5 4600g

[devout oxide]

Hear me out what if I stack my pcs so my aio at the top is exhaust and my servers bottom fans are intake so not only is air being exhausted but it’s then being sucked in by the other server which naturally runs cooled anyway

[vale wing]

i have a couple spare gpus that are even older lmfao

[devout oxide]

Worse cpu heating but better gpu + itd be like a pyrimad

[vale wing]

white msi gt 730 and an amd r7 370

[snow kettle]

@crisp meadow if you want cash right away and less hassle try a pawn shop, if you got a computer shop/repair near you you could ask, otherwise craiglist but beware of theives/scammers.

[vale wing]

are vega 64s good still?

[crisp meadow]

Thanks I'll be looking around

[limber nacelle]

they weren't particularly good when they came out

[vale wing]

💔

[limber nacelle]

I mean sure, they competed with the 1080 but....

[dawn tundra]

A 1080ti competes really well with my 4060 for like $100 less

[limber nacelle]

while being almost a decade old, having no dlss, and way less efficient

[dawn tundra]

Also my PC is taking a really long time to boot

[limber nacelle]

did I mention they're dropping support soon too

[vale wing]

older ryzen chips are so stupidly cheap

[dawn tundra]

Like it's been over like 2 mins

[vale wing]

I could probably get a r5 5600 for like $50~ on aliexpress

[dawn tundra]

I didn't mean to reply to that message like that

Yeah it took like 2 minutes to boot

Let me check the BIOS time

[limber nacelle]

yes r5 5600 non X is really cheap and decent if you have an older zen+ system

[vale wing]

yeah and then maybe pair it with something like a 2060?

[jaunty cairn]

Is it ok to have my PC Horizontally?

[dawn tundra]

It says bios took 9.3 seconds but it's strange cuz I have all of my apps disabled on startup and it's never taken this long before

[vale wing]

yes

[vale wing]

is that a phanteks case

[jaunty cairn]

yes

[vale wing]

dude

[devout oxide]

Chat is it worth it to keep my os on a flash drive instead of a god awful hdd

[dawn tundra]

Is that not the way you normally have it?

See the legs on the bottom of the case?

[vale wing]

my work in progress chud pc phanteks case

[jaunty cairn]

nice

[vale wing]

it is missing two legs

i need to get those legs off like aliexpress or something

[calm idol]

most shitty flash drives have worse performance than hdd's. buy a cheap 256gb ssd for the os and put everything else on smth seperate

[jaunty cairn]

its mounted vertically

[dawn tundra]

Yeah so is mine

Most are

[devout oxide]

I might have to except I deleted the de then it ran perfectly fine so tbh I prob won’t

[vale wing]

why does it take until the 5700x for amd cpus to have 8 cores and 16 threads

afaik its all 6 cores and 12 threads

[dawn tundra]

You have completely puzzled me on why you would not be able to have it vertical

[solid quail]

better VRM goes a long way

[dawn tundra]

I just don't even know where to begin

[solid quail]

I've seen some CPU:s be limited by the suboptimal VRM. And a better VRM would also last longer.

[dawn tundra]

Like you have me genuinely stumped as to how you would have thought that it was not okay or how you can come to the conclusion to lay on its side

[vale wing]

someone donate a poor sad man a 1060 6gb

[solid quail]

But the b650 msi mag tomahawk is a great board for the price

[dawn tundra]

I would if my bank account didn't look like a house number

[solid quail]

I sold mine a few years ago :P

built this PC for like 140€ and sold it

[dawn tundra]

And honestly it's better off if you do keep it upright because it'll get better air flow

But how did you like seriously answer me what told you to lay it down

[solid quail]

256gb nvme, i5 8500, z390a-pro, 16GB DDR4, GTX 1060 6GB

and some seasonic 80+ gold modular psu

[dawn tundra]

I live in the US so I don't know

That's probably good 🤷

[rugged sand]

I'm can't decide if I want a white pc build or a black one

[dawn tundra]

Why not green

[solid quail]

side of the road case

[rugged sand]

Because I don't wanna cover my pc parts in green spray paint.

[dawn tundra]

You don't have to do that

You know they make green PC parts right?

[rugged sand]

They don't make green rtx 5090s 💀

[dawn tundra]

They make all kinds of colors

[dawn tundra]

Don't tell me you're another one trying to get a 50 series

Also you can make shrouds

[solid quail]

built this PC for 0€ recently. i5 7500, 8GB DDR4, 120GB SSD, 1TB HDD, GTX 750ti

[dawn tundra]

Hell you could even get a metal one made for you

[rugged sand]

Yeah I wanna build a no compromise pc build

[dawn tundra]

No no no no no no no the 50 series is not a good series for gaming

[vale wing]

goat

[rugged sand]

Yeah it is, it's literally the best.

What are you on about

[dawn tundra]

Oh my God and we got another one guys

[vale wing]

I sold a pc with a i7 4790 in it for fucking $240

[rugged sand]

It has the top performance, there really isn't a debate.

[junior valve]

put a 780ti

[dawn tundra]

Look a lot of those performance stats were pretty baked on nvidia's website now with the 50 series you're getting mostly AI generated frames I would not recommend going for it this is just a short explanation but there's a lot more that you could go look at

Now if you want no expense you can go for somebody like a 4090 that would be your best option

Especially for gaming

[rugged sand]

It's still the best

[dawn tundra]

Those stats are baked by the AI frame generation known as dlss4

[solid quail]

Picked up the optiplex for free from a business. Found some old pc parts in a dumpster and traded them for a 750ti, picked up some old laptops for free, salvaged the SSD:s and threw one in

[dawn tundra]

No it is not

[solid quail]

Then I also picked this up for free

If I found a cheap ATX mobo and ram, I could make a sub 100€ PC with a 12500T and 1070

yes, I also picked up a 1070 for free

[high elm]

i mean if he wants to go all out

just get the 5090

[rugged sand]

Even without AI stuff it still has most ram and clock speeds

[solid quail]

but the 24GB of a 4090 is already plenty for gamers, even at 4K

[rugged sand]

Yeah but I want the best of the best you know

Like might as well get it

[solid quail]

I mean, if you got the money to burn, sure

[dawn tundra]

I mean technically you could go higher with the 48 GB once they're releasing in China

And hell I heard that they're making a 96 GB one but I don't think it's real

But the 48 GB ones are for sure real

[high elm]

i mean

[dawn tundra]

I mean...

[rugged sand]

What is that?

[high elm]

a 4090

[solid quail]

there isn't a 96GB 40 series card, but they're making a 50 series quadro with 96GB vram

[dawn tundra]

Something that only most people could dream of

[high elm]

from china

[rugged sand]

I honestly might go for an all white build just because the white RTX 5090 is just so clean

[mellow shadow]

An unholy abomination that has 0 official support

[tidal trail]

Which settings in bios do I enable for the advertised mhz and cl on my ram?

[dawn tundra]

Like I said you can still have shrouds made if you have the money

[solid quail]

this would be the best of the best

[tidal trail]

Lollll

[rugged sand]

Shrouds?

[solid quail]

meanwhile, 5090

[high elm]

its just a regular 4090 with its vram swapped out drivers will still work

[dawn tundra]

Yes...

[rugged sand]

Idk wtf that is

[dawn tundra]

Then why the hell are you even thinking about getting a 5090 if you don't know a single damn thing about computers

It's the case that covers the GPU

[rugged sand]

Because I want it 🤭

[tidal trail]

Custom shrouds sound expensive ti do lol

[tidal trail]

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should…

[dawn tundra]

Exactly

[turbid folio]

correlation not found 🙏

[solid quail]

bro going to use this psu

[dawn tundra]

While your house catches on fire because it can't handle the amount of power it requires

[mellow shadow]

Thought that would break stuff

[solid quail]

an absolute unit

[tidal trail]

At least have a comprehension of what you’re buying 💀

[turbid folio]

not knowing what a gpu shroud is = not allowed to buy a gpu?

[rugged sand]

Yeah but like... I think it's the best use of my money tbh.

[dawn tundra]

Dude don't even

[mellow shadow]

Is it even worth it to do that?

[dawn tundra]

Oh my god dude that's fucking wild I'm dying

[mellow shadow]

How many games could even use 48GB of VRAM

[tidal trail]

You will make money back by having a 5090 no other gpu?

[rugged sand]

I don't like how it sounds. Shroud... no..

[dawn tundra]

I don't know but yes

[mellow shadow]

Or is it for AI bs

[solid quail]

how many would even use 32GB

[mellow shadow]

Exactly

[rugged sand]

Make money back?

[solid quail]

so 5090 is pointless

[mellow shadow]

Complete overkill just for benchmarks

[turbid folio]

not everything is for games

[dawn tundra]

Yeah pretty much

[tidal trail]

Brain numbing conversation omg

[dawn tundra]

Yeah but in this sense it is

[tidal trail]

What’s the purpose of the pc 😭

[mellow shadow]

If it isn’t AI or games what is it used for 3D rendering?

[solid quail]

but if he wants the best of the best, he should go for the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell

[rugged sand]

Gaming

Video editing

[tidal trail]

At what resolution

[rugged sand]

Flexing

[dawn tundra]

Application denied

[random gyro]

I have a ryzen 5 5600X with a 3060ti. Should I upgrade my CPU to something a bit better?

[rugged sand]

4k 8k 16k 32k

[tidal trail]

I guess… it’s gonna be out done in a year with 7000 series

lol whatever your money have fun wit. It

[rugged sand]

Do what makes you happy

[mellow shadow]

And if so wouldn’t a workstation card be better

Like an H100 or something like that

[random gyro]

Buying a threadripper thanks for the help

[dawn tundra]

Fuck it why doesn't he get a whole another card just with vram

[solid quail]

I would recommend you to pay for the pc in installments

[rugged sand]

I'm not modifying a gpu 💀

[tidal trail]

Affirm a 5k pc LOLL

[solid quail]

over one year

practically free PC

[dawn tundra]

You don't need to if you have the money 💀

[tidal trail]

Just for it to be “outdated” In a year

[rugged sand]

Wdym

[dawn tundra]

What do you mean what do you mean 💀

[rugged sand]

All pcs become outdated, that doesn't mean I should hold off forever.

[tidal trail]

But you cant flex once the 7000 series comes out

[pine crypt]

hay

[rugged sand]

"You don't need to if you have the money"

[dawn tundra]

There's a certain period when things become more stable to buy

[solid quail]

with the current prices and scalping, it'll likely be like 7k

[tidal trail]

You’re right

[dawn tundra]

Yeah you don't need to modify a card if you have the money like I said 🙃

[rugged sand]

Yeah but I wanna game now, not in 2 years.

[solid quail]

I would like to see the cable management in the PC 💀

[rugged sand]

What does that mean tho.

[mellow shadow]

If anyone has a 4090 and they think it’s outdated I’ll throw it away for you

[tidal trail]

Whatever your money

[dawn tundra]

I think they're trolling I honestly think they're trolling

At this point it's just stupid

[tidal trail]

If they want it get it

[mellow shadow]

Switchboard

[rugged sand]

I'm not, you're just saying things that don't make sense.

[random gyro]

hey guys i have a 4070 Super what should my next GPU be just curious

[rugged sand]

You tell me to get a modified gpu, and then are saying that me having money somehow means I shouldn't?

[tidal trail]

It’s like buying a Porsche but not knowing manual

[solid quail]

so if you don't have the money just yet, take a quick 7k loan and put your house as a deposit

[dawn tundra]

Well if you know we're fucking thing or two you would understand what I'm talking about cuz it's not like I'm fucking speaking ;6##5+ over here

[rugged sand]

7000 series apparently

[dawn tundra]

Brother you don't know what you're talking about don't give other people advice

[random gyro]

??? Radeon?

[rugged sand]

It was a joke.. because he told me to hold off till the 7000 series.

[solid quail]

so you're going to buy a 7k PC for video editing?

[dawn tundra]

Yeah because that was a joke too 💀

[solid quail]

on this channel?

[rugged sand]

10k but yeah

[tidal trail]

Bros gonna video edit jsut not to make the money back lol

Horrible investment

[rugged sand]

I haven't uploaded on there in forever

[random gyro]

are you like a pro editor

[dawn tundra]

Seems like you took your leave of absence

Wouldn't blame you for taking it again

[rugged sand]

It's my money.

[tidal trail]

Nah that’s crazy work me personally I wouldn’t take that

[tidal trail]

Oh it is! But I can still have a opinion 😃

[rugged sand]

I live at home and don't gotta pay rent. I wanna buy a nice pc. Why is that so bad.

[tidal trail]

Bros gonna be living in his parents forever 😭

[solid quail]

are you going to pay for it in installments?

[rugged sand]

I'm 16 😭

[tidal trail]

10k rather put that into something that makes money back for u

[random gyro]

like stock

[tidal trail]

10k at 16 and you wanna game….

[random gyro]

SNP 500

[rugged sand]

I can make that money in like 6-8 months. And then continue to save money. But I still want the pc.

[tidal trail]

Doesn’t mean you should blow it all

[rugged sand]

But why not?

[high elm]

money management bro

[tidal trail]

So you are financially comfortable down the line?

[rugged sand]

Yup

[high elm]

imo only buy what you need and reinvest the rest

[tidal trail]

Instant gratification should not be your priority

[high elm]

or save it as capital for a future venture

[rugged sand]

I don't need a pc at all 💀 I have an old office one. The whole point is that I want it.

[tidal trail]

Interesting…

Welp I’m out of here gl with that kid

[random gyro]

well people can want things

[high elm]

yea

[random gyro]

buttttt

10k 😬😬😬😬

[high elm]

i cant justify buying designer goods that will depreciate

[rugged sand]

I know it's a lot ok. But hear me out.

[high elm]

like leather shit

[dawn tundra]

You should not come here trying to be a jerk and not know anything about PCS and then try to get the most expensive PC possible why don't you go for something cheaper first learn something then maybe get another PC

[solid quail]

I could live with that money without working for so many months

[tidal trail]

I lied I’m back

[solid quail]

and lil bro is spending it on a PC he couldn't even use to its full potential

[high elm]

its honestly very little money

[rugged sand]

I have a car, I live at home and don't gotta leave any time soon. It's something I want, I plan on doing videos ect. I have a Minecraft community about a very specific in game thing and want to make videos on it. And I think it's something I won't regret.

[tidal trail]

Leather it can be worth the investment but yea most designer pieces aren’t worth it since it they are just designs that aren’t really the true representation of the brand

[high elm]

depending on where u live its gone in 2 months

[high elm]

at least rolexs somewhat hold value

[random gyro]

hey bro witb that 10k u should get some NOS installed in your car

[tidal trail]

At 16 you better be saving it for college or investments

[random gyro]

well were not gonna act like his parents now...

[rugged sand]

I don't need that, my car is fine. I'd get more enjoyment out of the PC.

[dawn tundra]

For real you can keep dreaming but just don't even fucking look at this shit right now in a real eyes

[solid quail]

nope, he won't go to college, he is going to be a youtuber and get rich fast

[high elm]

yea save for college so you dont gotta take a loan out

[dawn tundra]

Yep

[random gyro]

you can go 100 in a school zone

[rugged sand]

After I spend the 10k I can save till I'm 25 if I really wanted to.

I'm not going to college

[tidal trail]

I mean that is true but honestly it’s just cause they limit the availability, Rolex designs are lazy imo i don’t get the hype when other brands exist

[solid quail]

living at your parents until 25?

[tidal trail]

Go chase that internet money man

[solid quail]

💀

[tidal trail]

That’s so cooked

[rugged sand]

I said "If I really wanted to"

[high elm]

GL working in the F & B industry 4ever

[tidal trail]

At 16 you should have more “mature” priorities

[rugged sand]

Doesn't mean I will. But I'm not going to rush out the door when I turn 18.

[solid quail]

It would be better for you if you moved out at a younger age

[tidal trail]

Well don’t get tooo comfortable with your 10k pc

And your “free” rent

[dawn tundra]

Absolutely wholeheartedly agree

[dawn tundra]

Listen invest that money in a good car or a good house or something fuck it even stocks would probably be a better investment for you

[rugged sand]

That's how you go into debt. I'd rather wait till I'm financially well and can leave.

[tidal trail]

Yes your parents are there to provide but why aren’t you taking the risk to make their “investment” (you) worth it

[dawn tundra]

Look just don't

[solid quail]

I moved out at 17, I'm currently in zero debt at the age of 21

[random gyro]

Linus Financial Tips

[dawn tundra]

Exactly

[tidal trail]

Maybe it’s just me but I want to be the reason why my parents retire or make their lives way easier

[dawn tundra]

And I would fucking know because I'm in debt due to legal fees

[rugged sand]

I don't wanna leave my parents at 17 bruh

[random gyro]

they probably want you to leave tho

like every parent should

[rugged sand]

You shouldn't move out till you have a good reason.

[tidal trail]

But that doesn’t mean you stay with them your entire life

[solid quail]

you don't have to, I'm just saying it might not be the best idea to be still living at your parents while pushing 30

[random gyro]

force their kid out into the world, get mugged and learn from it

[tidal trail]

There’s so much more out there than just sitting at ur pc gaming

[rugged sand]

No not really, they keep telling me not to move out when I turn 18.

[dawn tundra]

Shit's harder than you think man

[solid quail]

how about learning to become a responsible adult?

that's not a good enough reason?

[rugged sand]

Did I say that?

[random gyro]

damn case closed go buy that 10k pc, heck make it 20

[tidal trail]

25 is definitely pushing it imo

I would get it if you came back from college

[rugged sand]

That's the MAX. I'll probably move out at 20 or 21.

[tidal trail]

So how would 10k on a pc help you get closer to that goal…

[rugged sand]

I want to be a YouTuber.

[tidal trail]

Most YouTubers didn’t need a 10k pc

[random gyro]

maybe for what hes doing he needs it

[tidal trail]

You don’t need the most insane stuff to be good at what you do

[tidal trail]

To a certain extent yea

[rugged sand]

I know I don't need at 10k pc. I could get like a 2k one. But it's something I really want. Just like how people buy expensive cars they really don't need.

[tidal trail]

But like TikTok editing can get you to edit Yt videos then boom stable salary

[random gyro]

yeah those are rich people

[high elm]

dont waste ur time bro

[tidal trail]

Just be fortunate that you even have 10k to consider spending and use it wisely

[solid quail]

but the people buying expensive cars ARE FINANCIALLY STABLE

that's why they can spend a lot of money on things they don't actually need

[high elm]

unless theyre idiots who take a loan

i mean if the car will gain value then sure

[rugged sand]

I'm not rich by any means. But not having to pay for anything (except gas) makes it really easy to save money. I can make like 5k in 4 months. After buying the pc, I can easily save another 15k in a year.

[tidal trail]

Yea other day I met a guy driving a g wagon, because of real estate which took a lost of risk but high reward

[solid quail]

like I would never buy that expensive PC as I don't need it

sure I need a lot of CPU performance, but I'm still not spending 10k on a system

[random gyro]

have you made 5k in the last 4 months

[tidal trail]

Bro needs to be filing for taxes or sum

[rugged sand]

I just got hired at McDonalds. My first job.

[dawn tundra]

You really must be trolling then

[high elm]

bro mcdonalds

[dawn tundra]

Guys just ignore him he's trolling

[tidal trail]

Unless you’re like regional manager I’d keep saving LOL

[rugged sand]

They pay 15 and hour. Not a bad first job.

[dawn tundra]

Not good either

[tidal trail]

Yea it isn’t but once ur 18 it isn’t amazing

[dawn tundra]

But just ignore guys

[random gyro]

wait wait wait wait. if you wanted to be a youtuber what do you actjally need the 10k for? you can get a good 1440p 2k gaming pc and a capture card and thsts all you need no?

[rugged sand]

I'm really not.

[high elm]

imo you should be studying and doing extracurriculars then go to uni and get a stable paying job

cuz the reality is right

[dawn tundra]

And then play Roblox

[tidal trail]

Which settings in bios do I enable for the advertised mhz and cl on my ram? There’s like 3 under ram oc it’s pretty confusing imo

[rugged sand]

It's a more of a going overboard for something I want type of thing which will also cover all my needs.

[high elm]

u aint gonna make alot of money if u dont at least have a degree

or at least just have it as a backup

[rugged sand]

It's a first job, not that deep.

[solid quail]

I'm currently looking into upgrading my ancient 5960x rig with a budget of 1000€ max. Don't need a new GPU as I only play lighter games. I only need CPU so I'm currently considering a r9 7900

[high elm]

ok yeah i feel like youre just a naive teenager

[random gyro]

so you want something to cover your needs and go above and beyond?

[dawn tundra]

I'm going to be honest I'm 15 and I know better

[rugged sand]

Exactly.

[random gyro]

im 16 am i naive for having 4070 Super and 7800X3D

[tidal trail]

Lollll

[rugged sand]

I literally thought you were 13 that whole time. That's crazy.

[dawn tundra]

Still remembering I like I'm 14 lmao

[random gyro]

and that extra 10 gigs of vram will never be put to use?

[tidal trail]

Depends on how much u paid lol but also ur priorities

[solid quail]

wtf I would've expected you to be in your mid 20s 😭

[high elm]

lmao tbf im worse im 15 with a 4080 and 13900k custom loop

[rugged sand]

Yall the same age or younger telling me I'm immature. Seriously.

[random gyro]

but we didnt spend 10k

[solid quail]

hate to break it to you bud, but I'm in my 20s

[rugged sand]

Because you don't have 10k to spend.

[solid quail]

so your argument doesn't even make sense

[rugged sand]

The other 2 ppl.

[high elm]

i most certainly do but im not dumb

[south arrow]

[tidal trail]

Im 18 with a 3080 and 7800x3d I know what im doing with my money, my rig is under 2k

[solid quail]

does the age matter, if they have a really good point

[random gyro]

i do but its all in my bank account

making interest

[rugged sand]

They used my age against me to make points 💀

[livid mason]

Zotac 5070 my beloved

[tidal trail]

We didn’t until it was mentioned

[solid quail]

you completely misunderstood it then

[tidal trail]

I would say throw some of it into stocks but it’s pretty complicated imo

[random gyro]

im doing that next year because it doesnt look so good rn

[rugged sand]

Look you guys might not think it's very smart, but I've thought about it a lot. And I definitely thinks it's a good decision. I consider myself to be very responsible.

[solid quail]

but hey, if you end up getting the PC, please do tell me.

Also tell me once you're homeless

[dark comet]

Is it ok if my motherboard needs a bios update to support my cpu or should I just get one that is totally compatable

[random gyro]

i trust you

[random gyro]

always update bios

[tidal trail]

Yeaa I’m kinda regretting even throwing in sum because if anything it will crash bc Yk who…

oh ok idk lol just wondering

[quiet light]

this is dumb but is there like a uhhhh thingy where you can transmit data wirelessly over usbc?
lets say i have a mouse that connects thru usbc, is it possible to like turn it wireless even when wired?
ik this is a dumb thingy but idk how to explain it

[latent gull]

Like a Bluetooth usb hub?

[frail delta]

https://xyproblem.info

What are you actually trying to do

[quiet light]

kinda

[quiet light]

lets say if i get like a controller that i want to use in my pc, i want it to be wireless but it cant on pc, what if we use that thingy to basically make it wireless

[frail delta]

You would still need to power the USB device (and applicable wireless bridge thing)

They do exist, but are quite expensive and especially for game controllers etc they’d be not so fun to use

[quiet light]

what if it alr has battery

[quiet light]

so just worth it to go buy a wireless controller

but ngl it would be a fun project to try

[frail delta]

Yes

[frail delta]

Then it’s probably already wireless

I don’t think Microsoft has made wired Xbox controllers for like a decade now

[quiet light]

yeah but what if it is broken
mine is it broken im just curios on how something likethat would work

[strange atlas]

Using linux in windows uses too much system i think i'm gonna move back to linux but i dont want to lose these features not sure what to do

[frail delta]

A new controller will be significantly cheaper

[frail delta]

Like $200 https://www.smallnetbuilder.com/everything-else/other-reviews/iogear-wireless-usb-hub-and-adapter-review-deja-vu-all-over-again/

[hallow arrow]

hello i punched my keyboard and now alt f1 opens file explorer alt f2 opens search alt f3 opens calculator and alt f4 opens windows media player someone help please

[strange atlas]

press fn key once and release it

[hallow arrow]

nope still the same

[strange atlas]

have you restarted your pc? incase some key feels like pressed

[hallow arrow]

yeah i restarted

[strange atlas]

take fn keycap out and show us

[hallow arrow]

i dont think i broke the keyboard i just pressed all the buttons i think

[strange atlas]

god damn might recommend cleaning it :d

can you send a photo from side of it

[hallow arrow]

the keyboard also changed its color when i hit it if that helps

[strange atlas]

like you mean you dont press fn and press the light combination without it and it changes color?

did i get it wrong

[hallow arrow]

no like it was red i hit it and it became blue so i pressed a rgb change key but idk what it is i do it from the app

[strange atlas]

I'm having language barrier i didnt quite get you but press a key combination that normally only works after you press fn key but dont press fn this time

Lets see if its actually stuck or not

[hallow arrow]

example?

[strange atlas]

fn + f3

so press f3

[hallow arrow]

nothing happens

but i realized i dont need to press alt for the f keys to open apps

[strange atlas]

weird then probably fn isnt pressed why does it only trigger when you only press f1

[strange atlas]

yes you dont need it

[hallow arrow]

if i press fn + f1 on discord it takes me to discord support

so means that its not pressed?

[strange atlas]

yes

Soo your problem fixed itself?

[strange atlas]

.

[hallow arrow]

no

when i press f1 through f4 it still opens random apps

[grim shadow]

You still on the server?

[azure topaz]

unplug it and replug it

you pressed FN and some key

read the manual ittl tell you the FN combos

[hallow arrow]

ahh the manual

i have no idea where it is

[azure topaz]

you have google

google the manual

[grim shadow]

Anybody have a recommendation for free partition software or trial for free partition software?

[azure topaz]

try an unplug and replug before you scour the internet iT might reset

[hallow arrow]

okay

[azure topaz]

might undo whatever fn bullshit you pressed

[strange atlas]

This means fn is being pressed and after this you said it opened discord support sooo... the fn problem had to be already fixed and you said you have restarted windows so none of the keys are seen as being typed i feel like you're either making fun or its an weird problem

[azure topaz]

some keyboards have 3 layers of FN modes yknow

like my 60% behind me

fn control 1 time goes into function mode

fn control again goes into the hotkey/media mode

and then again goes back to normal

[grim shadow]

Are you awake my hero?

[strange atlas]

i mean i get this but it fixes itself or works in some scenarios ? that seemed weird

[azure topaz]

probably down to just the individual keyboard i dunno he coulda just broke it

[strange atlas]

Though if i'm wrong i'm sorry than but this doesnt seem like a correct information giving to me

[strange atlas]

could be

[hallow arrow]

it works

I had an issue recently with a western digital SN770 2tb SSD. Kept getting blue screens and boot looping. Would work for a while and then blue screen again.

I finally figured out the issue, windows 24H2 increased memory buffer size and had an issue with those specific drives. Had to update SSD Firmware to get the host memory buffer fixed and now it runs great.

Took a while to figure out though

Reinstalled windows like 3 times thinking it was a bad or corrupted install.

[true stirrup]

Eyyy I got it right

[mint umbra]

Like why don't places like Canada and Australia have manufacturing for computer stuff

[true stirrup]

Cost

[mint umbra]

Like buying stuff in Canada is horrible

Cuz of import fees and shit

[true stirrup]

It is what it is

[mint umbra]

1000 GPU turns into 2000 GPU

[junior valve]

1000usd to 2000cad , yes

[true stirrup]

That is how currency conversion works yes

[mint umbra]

Cad isn't .5 American

There's additional fees aside from currency exchange

[junior valve]

one dollar is like 1 million cad or smt idk

[mint umbra]

It's .7 American

Canada needs to start investing

In more technology

[junior valve]

or just merge into the us

[fickle ivy]

the only time i really notice how unsmooth 60hz is, is when im using passthrough on my quest

[warm lotus]

I bet the front is immaculate

Also thats not even as bad as mine 🤣 I have a hard drive installed without it being in the bay

Just hanging around leaning against other wires

[viscid helm]

Hi

Recommended external HDD for offline backup? 16TB

should I go with WD?

[snow kettle]

wd is fine

[tidal geyser]

ever watched a making a NAS video?

[snow kettle]

seagate might be cheaper just as good

[tidal geyser]

as in most youtubers doing that want to die on the inside

and then build a NAS for sometimes cheaper

[viscid helm]

I have a NAS backup though, I'm trying to add a second backup but in an offsite location

[tidal geyser]

so do that

[viscid helm]

Seagate or WD?

[tidal geyser]

does the NAS use truenas?

[viscid helm]

no

[tidal geyser]

what OS

[viscid helm]

the NAS is build by me and Linux

[tidal geyser]

linux is a kernal not a strict OS

[viscid helm]

yeah it's not safe right?

[tidal geyser]

truenas is also made on the linux kernal

[viscid helm]

is it an OS based on Linux?

[tidal geyser]

so i ask again but now more spesific what OS distro

[tidal geyser]

yes

[viscid helm]

this one is OpenMediaVault

it's very easy to use

but I'm not sure how safe it is when it comes to that

[tidal geyser]

https://youtu.be/IJCXSGXMLfc?si=EK0cLZyc9LWAcLRd

not used OMV before so that is another thing i should do but it should be semi quick and maybe easy to do

[viscid helm]

the one problem I have is a slow upload speed

That's why I decided to get a physical HDD for offsite and take it somewhere else and backup once a week

[tidal geyser]

how slow

[viscid helm]

only 20-40Mb/s

[tidal geyser]

the thing is, you do not need to do it all at once

all you do is set it to backup new files during the night

[viscid helm]

yeah I calculated all of those and it seemed it can never finish on time

[tidal geyser]

do you do like 100GB a day or something?

[viscid helm]

yes between 50-150GB for projects I work on

it's not like I add 100GB new data daily, but temporary files (B-rolls etc.) until the project is finished

[tidal geyser]

you can do like 400GB per day

[viscid helm]

with an average of 20Mb/s it takes 11 hours for 100GB

so overnight (8 hours) doesn't seem enough...

[tidal geyser]

do you max out the upload doing other things during the entire rest of the day?

[viscid helm]

no but if I have 100GB new data let's say daily before it finishes previous day some of the data is already changed, right?

like project files that I work on, edited, upscaled etc.

they become invalid

[tidal geyser]

no it just uploads the changed stuff

why reupload the same data?

im talking from the NAS perspective

[viscid helm]

let's say it's qeued to upload the data from last night, now I wake up and start working and some data changes, wouldn't that be a problem?

[viscid helm]

ah, maybe in that case it works differently

[mellow cairn]

People much smarter than you have made these systems 🙂

[tidal geyser]

its copying

all it does is match itself to the dataset being copied

it will remove the things you do from main or upload the new things in main

[viscid helm]

then that shouldn't be a problem I guess...
let me test my upload speed once again

I use a 4G connection for that because my home network is even slower lol

[tidal geyser]

looke what i have done

[viscid helm]

ah it looks very similar to OpenMediaVault interface

you run a Plex server?

[tidal geyser]

wanted to test it out

na i am gonna start installing and playing around with different things

wanna start making tutorials

[viscid helm]

good, do you suggest I switch to TrueNAS?

[tidal geyser]

do you wanna do more advanced stuff, is the hardware in the NAS good?

do you have a lot of ram

[viscid helm]

it's i59600K

32GB RAM

[drifting geode]

w or l budget build for Roblox and Minecraft and possibly some steam games
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/JrMN2x

[tidal geyser]

shit ram shit psu

[high elm]

solid yeah

[viscid helm]

ah one more thing, the reason I wanted to have an offline offsite backup

Because of the last time my PC got hacked the NAS could've been infected too, while offline backup is offline

is it not suggested to have an ext.HDD in that case too?

[high elm]

not many usable psus in that price range

[tidal geyser]

a550bn?

[high elm]

ram is alright for roblox and mc

[tidal geyser]

its not

[high elm]

that works too

[high elm]

so u want him to get 32gb???

[tidal geyser]

when did i say that

[high elm]

u said “shit ram”

[tidal geyser]

LPX has like 100 different RAM ICs

it has issues hitting XMP due to that

if you ever wanna get 2 more sticks then again you will meet issues

[drifting geode]

u talking to me

[high elm]

ya

[tidal geyser]

yes

[drifting geode]

bro what's considered good then 64 ram?

[viscid helm]

yeah 20Mb/s at its best

[tidal geyser]

the ram itself is shit

[drifting geode]

I don't need 105 chrome tabs open

so what do u recommend??

[tidal geyser]

also its not even cheap ram

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/YNL8zP

[tidal geyser]

with a offline it is set to do it on a schedule

[drifting geode]

I need wifi as well

will a wifi card support the motherboard

[tidal geyser]

why not just get a motherboard with wifi

[drifting geode]

or do I need wifi mother board

yeah that's easier

[tidal geyser]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/vDC7yW

[rigid fjord]

basically a simpler truenas dude

[sinful cobalt]

delicious ram

[rigid fjord]

also when you suggest truenas dude, say the full name as there's truenas and then there's truenas scale also

[tidal geyser]

you cant really install truenas core anymore

[rigid fjord]

not the first random adding he's done for a build tbh

[tidal geyser]

i was wrong first thing is core ffs

welp not gonna be this case for much longer

[rigid fjord]

it goes OMV <truenas core < truenase scale

[tidal geyser]

truenas community edition as in truenas scale rc1 fangtooth is so close to being finished that its possible to kinda rec it now

[mellow cairn]

I mean

I just use Linux with ZFS

[tidal geyser]

well you also work with this shit

soooo

yeeaa

anyways i installed rc1 on a shitbox and its working well

im even using disks with a lot of smart errors not the boot tho

[mellow cairn]

I am down to only 4.6tb free

[tidal geyser]

already

tbf i almost hit 80% storage use on my nas

https://tenor.com/view/blinking-server-connection-gif-15734660

[elder quarry]

other than anime, what do you even store on there

[tidal geyser]

i film straight to the server

[fierce raven]

would a 3080 to 5070 be a good upgrade?

[tidal geyser]

no

no wait eh yeah kinda

[elder quarry]

don't upgrade unless you need it, I wouldn't do it

[tidal geyser]

unless you get that for 550

i would not grab it

[elder quarry]

me neither

[storm jasper]

Hi

[mortal mantle]

what game would have a topup center link straight in the launcher

[elder quarry]

what

rip

[rigid fjord]

it's a troll/shitposter, ignore/block/mute/report

[elder quarry]

yeah I know

giving them what they want and leaves

idk maybe not the best approach

[rigid fjord]

a removal is the best approach tbh

[drifting geode]

ASRock B550 Pro4 ATX AM4 Motherboard or
MSI B550-A PRO ATX AM4 Motherboard

[tidal geyser]

cheapest

[tidal geyser]

they do not even have wifi

[drifting geode]

have u heard of wifi card

[tidal geyser]

are the motherboards £80?

[gilded sparrow]

hopefully today im going to finally be able to control my argb from my mobo instead of a button

[drifting geode]

around £100

[elder quarry]

why can't you do that

[tidal geyser]

how much is a the wifi card i have not heard of
