[graceful girder]

or anything else😅

[last knot]

wtf o,o

[kindred halo]

There's cheaper ofcourse, but not when in same quantity

Cheapest fan I've seen yet is a 5 dollar 120mm

[elder quarry]

Meh servers theb

[last knot]

I think I paid about 3$ for my current 120mm fans

(each)

[graceful girder]

yea, different server different person

[last knot]

aliexpress op

[graceful girder]

[kindred halo]

Are they just the most generic plastic fans

Oh AliExpress

[last knot]

they have some blue leds

honestly, I'm shocked they've lasted for as long as they have

[kindred halo]

Probably leftovers from the factory

[last knot]

they've been running 24/7 for ~2y at 3k rpm

[barren breach]

Would someone be willing to help me with a few cpu questions?

[kindred halo]

Sure

[last knot]

... in a chassi with the side panel off

[kindred halo]

"I am tired, boss"

[kindred halo]

Buy 10 more and show them their fate by stacking them infront of the case

[elder quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/counter-strike-bomb-detonate-explode-blow-up-gif-10782031650033072268

[last knot]

yes, I will create a new side panel from fans

[kindred halo]

Also, my own machine had 1 singular 92mm rear fan ziptied to the back

[last knot]

honestly, the first time I ever bought branded fans was like 2 months ago since I needed new 40mm fans lmao

[kindred halo]

Side Fannel

[kindred halo]

From who?

[last knot]

noctua, the old ones were so damn loud (because crappy bearings)

[kindred halo]

Noctua 💔
From nameless fans to the people who can't get enough of fans

[elder quarry]

That’s me

[kindred halo]

Also I am simply skipping the fan brand contemplation by just getting what's quite literally the best deal ever

[barren breach]

I currently have a I5 6600, and was looking at the I 6700k to upgrade, would it be worth the upgrade? And also what kind of cheap cooler should I look for? I cant seem to find one that claims itll fit the LGA 1151 socket

[kindred halo]

3 Thermalright ARGB fans for 18 US

And a ThermalRight Aqua Elite 240mm for 50

Anyway yeah why'd you need 40mm

[last knot]

they're still not enough to keep the gpus under 90c at 45% load though, I think I'm gonna have to do a custom loop to keep noise under control

[kindred halo]

What's your motherboard

[barren breach]

Asus Prime B250M-C

[kindred halo]

One second

[last knot]

I'm running 2x Tesla P40 gpus for LLMs

didn't wanna put the angle grinder to em like I did with my m40

which means running 40mm fans with a 3d printed shroud

[kindred halo]

You can get 7th gen at most
I recommend the i7 8700/K

6 core 12 thread CPU

And can you use amazon for your cooler?

[barren breach]

But is that worth it? I only have a GTX 1660

[kindred halo]

Lmfao

[frosty prism]

me personally i love my pc

[kindred halo]

That's so fucking silly I love it

[blazing onyx]

a 1660 isnt bad

[kindred halo]

It's like a 50 US CPU iirc

And like Raven said, a 1660 isn't bad

[blazing onyx]

i was using a 1650 laptop, was able to play pretty much every game i own, even vrchat in desktop mode, though that struggled a bit

[kindred halo]

Still 6GB of DDR5 in a 1660 tech, will work

[barren breach]

I built the whole PC for $80 so Im extremely happy with it but trying to stay pretty cheap for upgrades lol

[last knot]

the worst part is, the angle grinded Tesla M40 I have runs much cooler

it only needs 3.5 PCIE slots

[kindred halo]

Why do you use so much angle grinders 💔

[barren breach]

And the I7 8700K will fit the board? I only ask cause it wasn’t listed on their site as one thatll work

[kindred halo]

WHAT
A 1660 alone is like 70 USD??
You got some great deals dude

[kindred halo]

Oh wait no

B250 chipset only takes 7th gen

[last knot]

the heatsink on these are closed off on the top lmao, you can't mount fans to them that way normally

[kindred halo]

7700K is your best option, sorry

[clear palm]

Is this for gaming? I doubt a CPU upgrade will get much more out of your GPU if so, unless you already know you’re CPU limited in your games

[barren breach]

Yeah my friends all donated parts and helped me out

I gave them some money

Real happy for $80

[blazing onyx]

a 1660 will play alot of games, maybe not anything newer like hd2. but it will run quite a frew games perfectly fine

[kindred halo]

This looks well made for 80 dollars lmao

[kindred halo]

HD2?

Oh helldivers 2

[blazing onyx]

helldivers

[kindred halo]

It'll still run slot, I ran BFV on my 1050Ti & 4460 no problem

Averaged 70-100 FPS

[blazing onyx]

Pretty much, think of any game that will run on a xbox one x, and it will probably work on a 1660

[barren breach]

So should I go with I7 6700k or I7 7700K? The 6700k seems to be a bit cheaper but idk if theres a huge performance dip in between them

[last knot]

1660 can run most games as long as you aren't trying to do 1440/4k

[blazing onyx]

i think the normal xbox one has like. a gtx 750 equivalent

^

[last knot]

radeon 7790

[peak knot]

lol no

to both of you

[kindred halo]

7700K is still cheap enough

[kindred halo]

I think 970? I don't remember

[blazing onyx]

theres no way its a 970

[peak knot]

i own an AMD HD 7950 monica

[last knot]

it's a radeon hd 7790, the ps4 was basically a 7850

[peak knot]

which is the gpu used in the xbox one

[last knot]

was it?

huh, I recall it being a lower tier than that

[blazing onyx]

so one x is around an rx 580, standard xb1 is gtx 750 or radeon 7790

[peak knot]

this is straight wrong

[kindred halo]

Outclassed by a 1630 💔

[blazing onyx]

believe what you want too i guess

[tidal geyser]

sad pc but tbf 80$ for a working computer is nice

[kindred halo]

That's not sad at all

It's quite a decent build

[peak knot]

i literally own XBOX one development kit hardware

[elder quarry]

Nice

[peak knot]

the monica is a non publicly released GPU

[blazing onyx]

literally every source everywhere is saying that xb1 is a gtx 750

cant quite decide on the one x, im seeing anywhere from gtx 1060 to an rx 580

[south arrow]

Xbox intensifies. The x is cool cause I can play my 360 games I purchased an eon ago

[shy schooner]

yall i got this tv to work but all the colors i wrong i reset the color settings its still all wrong

[last knot]

7790 was a pretty common comparison back when it was released at least, whether it's accurate or not I couldn't say

[south arrow]

This wire was wrong I have fixed since btw*

[peak knot]

and every source you see is wrong cause first of all gtx 750 is an nvidia GPU while the xbox uses only amd silicon

[blazing onyx]

do you not know what the work equivalent means?

[kindred halo]

I would've said that's sad but it's got the performance of a GPU that came out a year later

[shy schooner]

is it burnt out

[frosty prism]

what are the corsair vengeance ddr5 6000 mhz preferred slots on the mobo?

[peak knot]

its not hard to say close equivalent when im literally telling you what it uses

[blazing onyx]

im not talking about what it uses, im talking about what its equivalent too

[peak knot]

it uses an HD 7950 that has cut core count

[kindred halo]

Anything that allows dual channel

[blazing onyx]

like, what is hard to understand about that sentence

[frosty prism]

so which slots sorry im a rookie when it comes to building

[south arrow]

Fzr does quite a bit of tech stuff I'd trust him on this one sounds like he's got a dev kit and tears it down

[tidal geyser]

99% of the time for anything modern with ram its slot 2 and 4

[kindred halo]

What's your motherboard

[frosty prism]

alright great

[south arrow]

Seems legit

[frosty prism]

b760m-k ddr5

[tidal geyser]

find me one modern consumer motherboard that does not use slot 2 and 4 as first that should be used

[peak knot]

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-hd-7950-monica-bios-2.c3077

literally the gpu xbox one uses

[blazing onyx]

im not saying i dont trust him, im saying that im talking about the nvidia equivalent of the xbox one

[kindred halo]

Isn't that two slotted

[peak knot]

who cares about the nvidia equivalent, it uses amd only parts

[tidal geyser]

XD yeah it is

ok that is just funny

[kindred halo]

I was asking for the exact reason you think

"What if it's dual slotted"

[blazing onyx]

i care about the nvidia equivalent, because that is what i am actively talking about

[tidal geyser]

well then you just put the ram into the motherboard

[last knot]

The entire point was whichever GPU was equivalent in perf, not the literal GPU model

[kindred halo]

I think bro mistook the PCIe for a RAM slot 💔

[swift moss]

Sorry for da wait 😭😭

[blazing onyx]

im comparing the xbox ones to a gtx 1660, why would i want to talk about the xbox ones radeon gpu

[elder quarry]

Huh

[kindred halo]

I don't blame him though for a first timer they look similar

Kudos that he's trying to do stuff by himself though

[tidal geyser]

i have tested it, its not possible if you have anything close to a brain to do so

[swift moss]

Bro took 5 years to drop and said sorry

[blazing onyx]

Thank you

[reef osprey]

please, what do you think of these models? are they good, thinking about air flow? if not, what would you recommend?

[tidal geyser]

its full of holes?

[peak knot]

gtx 460

[kindred halo]

If we're assuming he's a first time builder without much info, it's entirely possible

[frosty prism]

so i dont have to do anything i can just stick the 2 sticks in and i have dual channel and im good

[peak knot]

there ya go

[kindred halo]

Yes

[blazing onyx]

alright im now convinced that fzr is full of shit

[reef osprey]

that one I think so

[frosty prism]

alright thank you

[tidal geyser]

how can it have bad airflow

[south arrow]

This Xbox one?ifixit has diagrams now

[peak knot]

did you even look at the relative performance graph of the link i posted

[blazing onyx]

that case looks good, pull in air from the front side and exhaust out the back

[peak knot]

its basically performance wise the gtx 460 if it had 3gb of vram

[kindred halo]

I have the best worst idea ever

Make a "console" that's just an ITX computer

[last knot]

no, the gtx 460 comparison is actually pretty accurate

[last knot]

because that's roughly what the HD 7790 was

[blazing onyx]

i believe thats just the series x lmao

[frosty prism]

thats a good idea though

[kindred halo]

Aw

[tidal geyser]

its worse then a what was it zen 2 igpu?

[blazing onyx]

sorry, series s lol

that thing is TINY

[tidal geyser]

zen+ xd

WAIT i have that cpu XD

[last knot]

but as far as perf went, the equivalent ones for PCs were the HD 7790 for the XB1 and the 7850 for the PS4 iirc

[shy schooner]

i fixed the tv and im proud

i just turned the contrast down

[kindred halo]

Give me a minute I am building the (non price related) PS5 killer

[peak knot]

the xbox one uses a hd 7950 with 1/2 the cores enabled, so yeah it doesnt perform great

[blazing onyx]

ive always seen that xb1 was 750 and ps4 was 750ti

[blazing onyx]

no wonder no mans sky runs like shit

[last knot]

this must've been due to yield problems with the full 7950

[azure topaz]

lol no

[last knot]

they probably got em dirt cheap

[peak knot]

no its a power limit issue

[azure topaz]

^

[last knot]

o,o

[blazing onyx]

ok so we know what the xb1 is equivalent too

[strange atlas]

I found an mouse called "AJ159 Pro" its second hand and apparently it has connection problem it keeps disconnecting is it fixable if i get it will i regret it

[blazing onyx]

whats the xb1x equivalent too now?

all im seeing points to gtx 1060

[tidal geyser]

1:1 or gaming performance

[azure topaz]

like an r9 290 or 390

[blazing onyx]

?

[graceful girder]

refurbing laptops is cool, i wanna start doinf that more often @elder quarry

imma try it with another laptop

[elder quarry]

K, what’s fun about it

[last knot]

no, the XB1X smokes the 1060

[blazing onyx]

really? damn

[graceful girder]

not fu, that shit is work. i just like that i didn't add unnecessary e-waste to the world

[azure topaz]

its a cut dowwn variant of one of thee GCN 2 cards

[kindred halo]

It's between these two

[last knot]

if you use raw compute perf as a rough outline, you're looking at ~ 40-50% more than a 1060

[graceful girder]

keeping them running longer is good

[azure topaz]

like, about equal

[strange atlas]

Is it normal that pc keeps beeping when i dont connect any cable into gpu

[tidal geyser]

yea?

[strange atlas]

aight thanks

[last knot]

it's telling you that it hates you

[blazing onyx]

toms hardware is good right?

[tidal geyser]

so the computer cant work, soo it tells you it cant work and what the issue is?

[last knot]

p good, I mostly use techpowerup

[strange atlas]

just wanted to use pc as parsec server for a week but cant connect monitor to it since i will move it to another location

[azure topaz]

flex atx vs sometyhing that can fit a real psu answwer is clear, give me the cube

[kindred halo]

For a "PS5 killer"

[last knot]

step 1: buy a ps5
step 2: buy a pc that isn't tiny

[kindred halo]

I know, I am just doing a silly little ITX computer that's pretty much just a glorified console on w11

Okay I found the PERFECT case for it

[hard cedar]

i accidentaly made a oppsie, i made a spinning display with a fast motor and for fun i put a knife on it so now idk how to safely remove it lol

[kindred halo]

But only fits 80mm fans

[sand garnet]

Guys, my ryzen7 5700x is running at 50 pecent util but like 80 degrees you think thats too hot, im not sure, im just running fortnite and spotify

[last knot]

why not steamos then?

[kindred halo]

No AIO then FUCK

[kindred halo]

Good idea

[bleak ledge]

That came so close to not fitting

[rapid quarry]

-5C or it is too hot

[last knot]

if my * laptop actually had a bios and drivers that worked properly with linux, I would've switched long ago

w11 is the bane of my existence

[sand garnet]

You saying it should be negative 5 or its too hot?

[last knot]

put it in the freezer

[sand garnet]

Yall are so informative 💀

[rapid quarry]

Mr Yeester actually tried that and it didn’t work. Just not enough cooling power

[rapid quarry]

Next time, google

[last knot]

you don't say xd

[sand garnet]

You think i didnt first… this is called a second opinion😭

[rapid quarry]

Even Copilot has a half decent answer

[bleak ledge]

Does anyone know if these fans will overload an Aorus X570 Pro?

[peak knot]

rule of thumb is fan headers on normal motherboards can handle 1A of power

[bleak ledge]

Ah, okay. Well within limits in that case

[opaque venture]

i have a small form factor case and my VRlink cable comes out the bottom so this is my professional solution to route the cable 😂

[bleak ledge]

I like your professional solution to elevating the case 😎

[opaque venture]

thanks because i had a ton of cheap usb A adapters laying around

and i completely switched to type c everything

[bleak ledge]

One strong breeze and you're cooked, lol.

[opaque venture]

the leaning tower of PC

[swift moss]

Dust inc

[opaque venture]

geez

ever heard of a compressed air can?

[shell snow]

can anyone recommend a good 2tb ssd? Want to upgrade my laptop storage. For gaming too.

[bleak ledge]

Was even worse before

[kindred halo]

@last knot @frosty prism
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TyGNWc
Completely ignoring the price, this is a good PS5 killer 👍

[bleak ledge]

Hasn't been dusted since 2019 when I built it

[kindred halo]

Also PcPaPi just purged their GPU selection

[opaque venture]

i heard crucial had issues with their gen5 nvme's. is that still true?

[frosty prism]

amazing now lets not ignore the price 😇

[kindred halo]

It's no longer a good ps5 killer

[frosty prism]

no it defo is a ps5 killer

but a ps5 killer thats $500 more 💀

[opaque venture]

sounds like a job for... "the greatest technician that's ever lived"

[kindred halo]

Mhm

[raven sluice]

what's that white stuff

[frosty prism]

no joke im confident if you budget it down you can get something for 600 - 700 ish all new parts that still craps on the ps5

500 - 600 if you find good deals

[opaque venture]

bitwit did a good ps5 killer for the same price a couple years ago

[kindred halo]

The most wonky part was the GPU

PcPaPi purged their selection completely

[frosty prism]

369 FOR A 4060

why the hell are low profile cards more expensive than full sized ones

never made sense to me

[opaque venture]

because of small form factor builds

[bleak ledge]

Probably powder from me spraying deodorant in here over the years

[opaque venture]

they're not as frequently purchased so they overprice them to make up for the lack of sales

[frosty prism]

yeah i get that but its just scummy

[opaque venture]

plus the r&d involved with cooling the same amount of tdp in a smaller package

[frosty prism]

swap out that psu to something like a a650BN

[sharp ivy]

Exactly

[frosty prism]

get a 2 tb slower drive

[kindred halo]

Can't, SFX only

Anyway dw already redoing

[opaque venture]

engineering stuff to be mass produced ain't exactly a walk in the park

[sharp ivy]

Design a complicated card in a special way that not many people are going to use, it will be more expensive

[frosty prism]

oh right

[opaque venture]

novelty tax 😂

[sharp ivy]

lol

Correct though

[opaque venture]

peak nvidia design imo

[opaque venture]

especially with the sick green light up logo

[gleaming rose]

all star is actually kinda a good song?

[opaque venture]

they should switch to a cheaper supplier for those connectors ||joke||

[kindred halo]

@frosty prism
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/n4y3db

Idk why but PcPaPi has no Solo 4060s

So I just put a 710 with the price of a 4060 solo

[rapid quarry]

I personally think they should insulate the wires in cotton or steel wool

[opaque venture]

keep talking like that and they might make you head of engineering department

https://tenor.com/view/pc-fire-gif-18709628

[rapid quarry]

I’ll drop Physx 64 bit as well. Then I’ll introduce hyperrealism with AI

[kindred halo]

Steel Wool Studios™

[bleak ledge]

Supermicro were very stingy with these fan connectors

[opaque venture]

geez

congrats they saved 0.002cents

[bleak ledge]

I guess the case is designed for a few specific boards to be fair

[opaque venture]

ironically it probably costs less to have a longer wire

[bleak ledge]

And is probably optimized for airflow

[opaque venture]

remember the airflow and bad cable management video

negligible difference

[tidal geyser]

why would it need to be more

[bleak ledge]

Just to be a bit more forgiving I guess

Though, extensions exist

[fluid fox]

That's weird, I have drive that is not mapped how ever, I want to delete the credentials, and when i set to login with different credential. It always tell me it's wrong. O_O

[last knot]

the best ps5 killer in my case would be a sledgehammer, but that's a waste of money

[cunning escarp]

does the ryzen 5 5500 come with the cpu cooler and thermal paste?

i got this build rn
https://newegg.io/4810ae3

like tryna build it

when (more like IF) i get the parts

[cunning escarp]

@rapid quarry this a decent budget build?

[mighty depot]

hello, anyone know how to make my pc prioritise my GPU?
ever since yesterday my memory usage has been on like 70% and its not using my gpu for games n stuff

no it isn't down, it's just fucking annoying

wdym

[fringe prairie]

ud90 is also meh, there's a chance you get the mid variant

safe pick is xg7000 or c910

[tidal geyser]

you know where you chose what gpu to use show me a pic of dat

[kindred halo]

What abt the Sn850?

[fringe prairie]

it's good but costs a lot more

[cunning escarp]

https://newegg.io/4810ae3 upgraded version thats still over budget cuz i got bored im prob just getting a console and a monitor

[fringe prairie]

if you only play games you won't notice a difference in loading times

[narrow oak]

bad one
10100f

[tidal geyser]

the 5600 comes with fans

[cunning escarp]

double the price

more exipensive than the r7 5800XT for some reason

[tidal geyser]

double the cache

[fringe prairie]

sister company (or subsidiary i forgot) of sk hynix

huge name in the tech space when it comes to ram and flash memory

[narrow oak]

mostly works enough for me tho

[tidal geyser]

i have one too

[cunning escarp]

ngl the only thing stopping me from getting a console and monitor is the fact i need to pay to play online

[tidal geyser]

in a mini itx motherboard but the x16 slot aint on the top

[kindred halo]

Oh okay, that's relieving

[narrow oak]

kinda, cuz i'd want a better one but it's not like i'm stopped from doing something i want because i have a bad cpu

[tidal geyser]

then im not sure

[mighty depot]

this is basically the issue, rams being prioritised for use instead of gpu and because my rams not as good its slowing down my whole system

[cunning escarp]

god dayum bro consoles are way cheaper

@tidal geyser can i buy the 4060 build and use a controller

[timid epoch]

HP is going ahead with STEAM OS

[cunning escarp]

im so mad how i cant get this

[fringe prairie]

ms/sony sell their consoles at a loss as they expect you to buy xbox live/ps+ to make up for the loss

[frosty prism]

is that swedish currency?

[cunning escarp]

ik thats the only reason im not getting a console

[cunning escarp]

nah kuwait (u prob never heard of it)

[last knot]

"Shariah-compliant" is a thing in computing?

[frosty prism]

no i live in the uae i know a lot of middle eastern countries

[frosty prism]

thats a religion thing

[cunning escarp]

no lol thats like a religion thing

[frosty prism]

i think because interest is banned there or something

[last knot]

SEK is the abbreviation for the swedish currency

[cunning escarp]

like it says that it is compliant with the shariah rules

[cunning escarp]

ye it is cuz its money u get for doing nothing

[last knot]

I know what shariah is, what I meant is, why is it a thing in that context lol

[frosty prism]

oh i get it

[cunning escarp]

so that if ppl are going to buy this they know its not a haram thing

[frosty prism]

so this tabby thing lets you buy with payments every month instead of buying at once

and usually there's interest but i think they're telling you that there isnt interest so you can pay the same amount every month

[cunning escarp]

ye

[last knot]

interest is haram?

[cunning escarp]

yes

[last knot]

wtf xd

[frosty prism]

i think so

[cunning escarp]

cuz baisically its you (or the bank or whatever) getting money they didnt work for

[mighty depot]

yea i think its because the rich get richer & poor get poorer not sure tho

[frosty prism]

honestly i pay less so idc LMAO

[cunning escarp]

fr

[frosty prism]

i wanna go back to living in cali tho legit

its so hot here i hate it

[cunning escarp]

that tabby thing kinda fire i might be able to convince my dad to get me a more exipensive pc by splitting it into 4 payments

[cunning escarp]

have u ever lived in kuwait..

[last knot]

I mean, it's great from a consumer perspective, but I don't get why they'd offer paying in instalments unless they're hoping for repo

[cunning escarp]

average tmemp here is like 38 celciues

[last knot]

if they're not getting interest*

[cunning escarp]

that makes it look like its less money and also if there are ppl who wanna buy this but dont currently have money so yea

so baisically it makes it more likely to get bought

[last knot]

fair enough ig

[frosty prism]

im talking about dubai its terrible

[frosty prism]

rip

[cunning escarp]

kuwait is RLLY hot

like im ded serious my parents dont allow us to walk outside cuz we might pass out

[frosty prism]

nah thats crazy

[cunning escarp]

ye

[latent gull]

Wow, I never would’ve guessed country’s that are primarily deserts are hot.

[cunning escarp]

yea ik facinating

i butchered the spelling so hard

[boreal crown]

What’s the lg c4 like

[hollow silo]

quick question I changed a registry value (win32priority) and now I want to change it back to the default/previous value. How to find the previous value? I remember the value being "2" but don't know if its a decimal or a hexadecimal value

[cunning escarp]

is that for ur country or is that kuwait cuz it gets pretty cold in winter too

one time it snowed i think

[last knot]

that's from my town

[latent gull]

It’s fairly hot here but not particularly dangerous atm

[last knot]

it's getting warmer again here

[latent gull]

But it’s also only march

[cunning escarp]

nice

americans

[last knot]

no, I'm swedish lol

[latent gull]

He’s using C, that ain’t American

[cunning escarp]

talking abt @latent gull

[latent gull]

Mines American :)

[cunning escarp]

ik :)

[boreal crown]

I use kelvin

[last knot]

80f should be around 26c, no?

[latent gull]

You know it’s hot cause it’s close to 100 :)

[last knot]

80f sounds god-awful

[cunning escarp]

look at how fire that is

[cunning escarp]

how much is that in C

[latent gull]

27ish yeah

[cunning escarp]

THATS SO GOOD

[cunning escarp]

dawg thats like amazing weather

[latent gull]

The fuck it is?

Shits hot for march

[cunning escarp]

ik but in general thats amazing weather

[last knot]

that's around what we get during the height of summer

[latent gull]

Yeah our height of summer is 100-110 heat index

[cunning escarp]

i heard that in winter its super cold in sweden

[boreal crown]

It was 44 degrees Celsius in Australia yesterday

[last knot]

depends on where you live, coldest I've had where I live was -24c or smth in my town

[latent gull]

This is roughly what we get in the peak of summer

[cunning escarp]

dawg what i would freeze 😭😭😭

[fringe prairie]

it's decently fine, at least for me it gets a lot hotter in the summer

[cunning escarp]

i think the coldest kuwait has ever reached was -8c

[latent gull]

We hit -22 this past winter and we usually hit 40-45 in the summer since we’re using fake numbers

[quasi path]

i believe its a 12u

[last knot]

but my town is also right next to one of the largest lakes in europe, so temp swings are milder than for most of the country

[fringe prairie]

in 24C?? that's amazing weather

[latent gull]

Yeah our temp swings are BRUTAL

[last knot]

negative 24c

[cunning escarp]

in -24c

[fringe prairie]

oh negative 24C yeah gg

[last knot]

it's +8c rn

which is hot for march

[cunning escarp]

24c i would feel so good something would happen which i cant say here

[fringe prairie]

solid 60F rn, hitting 80 on saturday finally

[cunning escarp]

thats like the coldest it gets in winter for me

[last knot]

we had a random-ass blizzard about 2 months ago with an over-night drop of about 15-20c

Now, I'm a bus mechanic

it was fubar

like 50cm snow in 1 day

[cunning escarp]

i wanna live in a cold place

the coldest winter i experienced was in egypt

[last knot]

it's nice if you like skiing

[frosty prism]

bro i'd kill to get snow again

[last knot]

it sucks if you're a mechanic

[frosty prism]

i havent touched snow in 14 years

[fringe prairie]

damn

[cunning escarp]

same

[last knot]

being a bus mechanic means randomly having a 2kg piece of dripping snow falling on your head

[cunning escarp]

im 14

[last knot]

and getting soaked in water while it's cold af

I loved winter until I started this job

[cunning escarp]

dayum

[last knot]

last winter the corp decided to save money by not replacing the bio-diesel ahead of time

the end result was ~100k USD in fuel filter replacements in 1 month

and us being very cold

[cunning escarp]

lol

[last knot]

that is, 100k USD in our area/region

which only makes up about 3 cities

[cunning escarp]

rich ppl numbers

i need help convincing my dad to get me a pc fr

[last knot]

should try finding some simple work

[hybrid acorn]

Approach the conversation from a learning pov

[cunning escarp]

im 14

[random gyro]

wait 2 years and get adult money

[hybrid acorn]

You can learn a lot about hardware from building or tinkering with a PC

[cunning escarp]

ohoho u cant fool ur dad into getting u a pc when he is a computer science major

[last knot]

I was selling newspapers when I was 14

[cunning escarp]

cant work till im done with uni

[hybrid acorn]

Well if he's a cs major he might actually agree you can learn

[cunning escarp]

my brother is 19 and his lazy ass doesnt work

[random gyro]

no way ur not at least 30, i havent seen a newspaper in years

[last knot]

28

[random gyro]

damn unc

[random gyro]

i dont blame bro, working sucks ass

[cunning escarp]

like i got decent grades on my last tests and studied well this month will that be enough?

[last knot]

anyway, as a CS major, if he works in IT or smth you could prob check if he can get one of the older computers from his workplace

they sometimes let you do stuff like that instead of scrapping them

[random gyro]

i plan on going to chapel hill W or L

[gloomy sleet]

don’t you love how youtube doesn’t take your thumbnail the first time you put it in

[cunning escarp]

15/16 in physics
29/31 in geo
25/25 in math
41/41 in bio
35/38 in chem
22/22 in my 2nd math

[gloomy sleet]

so you have to wait for the video to upload then put the picture in again

instead of it just working the first time you put the thumbnail in

i fucking hate youtube

[cunning escarp]

same

too many ads nowadays

[last knot]

fr

[cunning escarp]

@last knot will these grades and me studying well this month paired with my shit ass laptop be enough to get a pc ?

[last knot]

that'll depend on your dad

he's still the one working to make the money

[cunning escarp]

ye

[tidal geyser]

i want to put the tuf gaming 9070xt in my nzxt h1 v2 put the thing is the card is 33cm/330mm and i have 33.5mm 335mm of space is that a good idea

[tidal geyser]

12u is like the entire size of a rack

well really small one but still

[true stirrup]

If it fits it fits

[quasi path]

idk its just this one without panels from facebook, 😭 idrk much about cabinets

[last knot]

anyway, you'll have better luck if you try convincing him to get you some second-hand stuff

[gloomy sleet]

i use adblocker why aren’t you

[tidal geyser]

i knew it

[cunning escarp]

broke af

[tidal geyser]

[gloomy sleet]

use an adblocker it’s free

[tidal geyser]

[last knot]

adblock is free lmao

[cunning escarp]

[cunning escarp]

dayum i see

[sudden pivot]

What it do folks

[true stirrup]

Yeah it's completely fine

[quasi path]

this doesn’t seem like a good idea knew it

[tidal geyser]

i cant read also yes

[gloomy sleet]

you upload a video with a thumbnail and it says nah have this shitty ai thumbnail

[gloomy sleet]

then you have to upload it again

[tidal geyser]

i read it as computer not rack, anyways yes its fine

[cunning escarp]

anyways im def getting a new system after ramadan im just tryna convince my dad to make it a good pc ill install it on the new system my laptop alr on life support

[tidal geyser]

just do not put it anywhere close to where you deal with clothing and its fine

[glad hound]

does anyone know if you can activate xmp on intel motherboards and how

[last knot]

xmp is for intel, and it'll be in your bios

[glad hound]

cant find it in my bios its like an intel bios

[tidal geyser]

if asus its some ai tuner shit

go into easy mode

[last knot]

just google your motherboard along with xmp, usually the easiest way

[glad hound]

idk which one i have how can i see it on pc

[quick stag]

completely secure ipod placement

[tidal geyser]

hwinfo

[quick stag]

It's being held up by hopes and dreams

[tidal geyser]

but do what i said

[glad hound]

whats that

[tidal geyser]

hardware info

[glad hound]

where to find

[tidal geyser]

google.com

[brave brook]

never forget the world strongest cable

[tidal geyser]

like where you find most things else

[quick stag]

we love it

[cunning escarp]

peak

[tidal geyser]

i wonder how much stress there is on the other side

[narrow oak]

what if the true brainrot is the friendship we made along the way?

[true stirrup]

Just send a picture of your bios

[hybrid acorn]

VGA supports 8 kg

[glad hound]

nvm just found out hp doesnt have this option 😦

[true stirrup]

Office pc?

[glad hound]

kinda

[bleak ledge]

Going to have to set these fans to 10%, lol

[narrow oak]

the locks to the safe containing the US military nucelar codes are made with VGA connections

[hybrid acorn]

Overkill if you ask me

Nobody has any chance to get in

If you somehow figure out how to damage the cable they're pretty much impossible to plug out

[sharp ivy]

Yeah that's VGA for you

[quasi path]

ahhh phew

[kind obsidian]

hype

[arctic tapir]

Would you recommend this coolant?

[sly girder]

Kk

[shy schooner]

can i charge my phone with my pc

[true stirrup]

Should be fine

[true stirrup]

Ofc

[shy schooner]

we only have 1 charging brick with usbc, the phone i bought only gave me a cable which is usb c to usb c which i dont have anything for that except a janky setup with an adapter and an oculus charger, which was making popping sounds so i dont want to use that

[true stirrup]

If your motherboard or front IO has a USB-C port you can use that

[shy schooner]

so like wherever i have a usbc port i can do it yes?

[true stirrup]

On the pc yes

[shy schooner]

i htink this might be faster than the brick

[elder quarry]

or just buy new ones

arctic is cheap

and thermalright

[narrow oak]

windows 11 was masterfully engineered by the best minds of the tech industry in order to create the worst UX experience ever achieved in human history

[true stirrup]

It's completely fine

[gloomy sleet]

disagree it’s better then windows 10

[true stirrup]

Especially the file explorer

[gloomy sleet]

yeah that’s a great change

[narrow oak]

okay maybe i'm biased due to being used
but talking settings

[gloomy sleet]

makes productivity so much easier

[narrow oak]

imagine having to look up tutorials in order to alter basic settings lmao

[gloomy sleet]

you can change the ui back to the windows 10 ui if you some reason want too

[narrow oak]

yes

[gloomy sleet]

what basic settings

[narrow oak]

a lot of settings

also some don't even work (like disabling game bar didn't work so i had to uninstall it with cmd command lmao)

[true stirrup]

You know you can just search for them in the search bar

[narrow oak]

if only it worked

cuz often it doesn't

[gloomy sleet]

just know the command to uninstall them

actual skill issue

[dark comet]

Why does Canada computers have so many open box 9070 xt? I don't know whether to buy from them BC maybe people returning them because of defects?

[dawn cape]

[frail delta]

Did someone say VDSL2 NIC?

[carmine yew]

there's a heatsink design i haven't seen in about 200 years

[gloomy sleet]

looks like a bit of scrap aluminium or something

[azure topaz]

meow

[plush wren]

And what

[gilded imp]

womp womp

[outer marlin]

Can a gaming setup run on this

[gloomy sleet]

yeah why not

[tidal geyser]

do not do that

[gloomy sleet]

?

[tidal geyser]

had a guy with many very strange issues, it was a extension

[outer marlin]

It’s not my main it’s just to test pcs

[tidal geyser]

if possible avoid it but eh tbf that guy had a very power heavy pc

[outer marlin]

Yeah at the most I would have 650 on it

[rigid fjord]

"AL, AL, ALAN, AL"

[rigid fjord]

america?

[tidal geyser]

where else

(yes i know some other places too)

[outer marlin]

Yeah

[tidal geyser]

but mostly murica

[patent elm]

is it safe to use this? I’m using 4 out of 5 of the power cables

[tidal geyser]

aint that the fire starter style

[patent elm]

is it safe

[rigid fjord]

it'll work but tbf, don't try to go above 1kw with it

[patent elm]

I’m only using some non dram low power ssds with it

[rigid fjord]

that one will be fine, as it's a clamped on to wire connection

[patent elm]

thanks

[rigid fjord]

nope, those be clamped on, not sealed

[tidal geyser]

is there a picture of the two types in TT or smn

as we really should have

[rigid fjord]

don't think so

[tidal geyser]

this was the bad kind?

[rigid fjord]

these are the not great ones due to the male connector being sealed

[strange atlas]

i wish same would happen on mine my pc is under my desk everytime my feet touches it goes off the pc

But my screw holes got fully beaten up

[rigid fjord]

nope

[arctic tapir]

How come?

[patent elm]

I used to use something like this for 3 months just a small one with 2 splitters I used it to power 2 low powered ssds until literally today so 3 months I’d say and nothing happened to my pc luckily

[rigid fjord]

i'd use either ekwb's coolant or the likes of xpsc/mayhem instead

[patent elm]

I’m glad I got a air cooler instead of a water cooler lol

my pc has a fan splitter and a sata splitter cuz my psu and motherboard have limited stuff on it sooo

[tidal geyser]

does ekwb still sell stuff?

[patent elm]

“as long as it works”ahh pc

[rigid fjord]

not directly, but you can still get some of their stuff still

[tidal geyser]

so mostly old stock now

[tidal geyser]

is that a 700bq

[plush wren]

[patent elm]

600BQ EVGA

[plush wren]

600bq

[rigid fjord]

yup

[plush wren]

[tidal geyser]

that can do 6 sata drives?

[tidal geyser]

its almost midnight

[patent elm]

idk it only has 1 cable in it lol

[plush wren]

That's true

[tidal geyser]

are you using more then 3?

[patent elm]

I didn’t put the psu and motherboard in someone else built it and they must of not put the other sata cable thingy in the psu

[patent elm]

yes there’s only 2 sata cables coming out the psu so I’m using that splitter for 4 ssds

well 3

[tidal geyser]

you didn’t?

[patent elm]

nope

[gleaming rose]

just got the new discord ui
what the actual shit

i love it

[patent elm]

relax

[tidal geyser]

ffs

stop putting your shit at risk and never ever make anyone else do it

[gleaming rose]

not surprised that you havent even read the first rule
also mods can see deleted messages

[plush wren]

putting what at risk

[tidal geyser]

his account and his friends too

how do you think those steam gift card scams work

[plush wren]

by others falling for them

[rigid fjord]

especially when reported

[plush wren]

and through malware

[outer marlin]

Result

[patent elm]

how is it against the rules someone else literally told me the same thing on here and nothing happened to them

[gleaming rose]

inzoi in about an hour

[tidal geyser]

https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1019713714968088586

[gleaming rose]

read the first fucking rule and you'll know

[tidal geyser]

you report them

if a discord mod passes by here this entire server can get banned if they see people using modded clients

[gleaming rose]

^^^^

[patent elm]

discord mods these days to serious

[tidal geyser]

no

[gleaming rose]

no, this has been a rule for a very long time in every tos-abiding server

[tidal geyser]

i already said why they need to

[gleaming rose]

doing what you just said is a direct violation of discord ToS

[plush wren]

im not saying that hes right but im just saying they wont do that

[patent elm]

how? it’s there fault for putting shitty updates in the first place I never would of used that

[tidal geyser]

they do and it also risks every single mod in this servers account too

[gleaming rose]

https://discord.com/safety/platform-manipulation-policy-explainer

nerd emoji is the most wonderful way people show defeat
also i know i'm a nerd dumbass

[patent elm]

okay 1. my fucking eyes and 2. what the sigma

[tidal geyser]

how many times have you been hacked

[patent elm]

none

[tidal geyser]

no

[patent elm]

I have 2FA

[plush wren]

doesnt matter lol

[gleaming rose]

this isn't really an argument here

[tidal geyser]

what

[patent elm]

matters to me cuz i’ve never been hacked?

[plush wren]

doesnt matter if you're using 2fa

[patent elm]

I only got hacked once when I was a kid on roblox

[tidal geyser]

if they have the session token it does jack shit

[rigid fjord]

they do, specially due to certain clients and mods used for them

[patent elm]

cuz I gave my password to some guy lol

[rigid fjord]

so you did a dumb

[patent elm]

yeah I was a kid

[gleaming rose]

anyways hacked or not doesnt matter it's still a violation of discord ToS and can't be discussed in here because the server could get fucking deleted

[patent elm]

I put it into some free bebox game

why is bro angry like he owns this server

[tidal geyser]

since we like having this server around

[rigid fjord]

there was someone doing this here and got themselves removed for it

[gleaming rose]

because i dont owe you shit nor do i like you, and i like it here and would prefer if the server was available for the forseeable future

[plush wren]

they already detect if you're using them

[patent elm]

alright buddy no need to get angwy

[gleaming rose]

<@&750150305383186585> generally being annoying and ignorant of the rules, reaction spamming

[patent elm]

ffs what I do now

I didn’t say I disrespect the rules bruh

[tidal geyser]

start using the actual client your meant to

o wow he just left the server on his own

[gleaming rose]

thank fuck

[tidal geyser]

i was trying to help him so that is sad

[gleaming rose]

i hated him anyways - actually maybe it was mod action

[gleaming rose]

he's not going to get hacked sim

[tidal geyser]

no

[gleaming rose]

at least not currently

[tidal geyser]

i was trying to figure out why his psu that should have 6 total sata power ports did not

[tidal geyser]

anyways i said that for research

mostly the main reason why im here still

[gleaming rose]

the guy shipped my scanner right after i threatened to open a dispute

[tidal geyser]

i tend to do same hour shipping

[plush wren]

what the heck

[gleaming rose]

whenever someone buys smth from me it's no later than 2 days

[plush wren]

here if they buy through the site a courier comes to your door the next day to pick up the package

[tidal geyser]

not rich enough for that

na more about Norway being so small

we tend to use our post boxes tho

but o well going to the drop of place is a nice long walk

[strange atlas]

I want to be able to study in bed if its possible but lighting is problem is there any portable light source i can use and it shouldnt be flash since i have astigmat gotta be led type of thing

[hasty warren]

I found:

• Transcend 32gb (x1) 4800
  $62 JM4800ASE-32G
• Kingston 32gb (x1) 4800
  $88KCP548SD8-32

Why is one $25 less than the other ?

[gleaming rose]

because one is a noname brand

[tidal geyser]

do not buy any of em

[latent pasture]

random supply and demand shit

[tidal geyser]

buy a kit

[hasty warren]

Transcend is no name?

[tidal geyser]

yea

[hasty warren]

Those are the only options atm...

[latent pasture]

its jedec so only buy this if ur desparate for capacity

[hasty warren]

Unfortunately

[latent pasture]

or to get into ddr5 for some reason

[tidal geyser]

how

[random gyro]

peak

[latent pasture]

oh i just googled and its laptop sodimm

lmfao yeah get whatever is cheapest

[tidal geyser]

o

[rigid fjord]

well, tbh only worth getting jedec if for laptops or oem builds

[tidal geyser]

ok yeah makes more sense now

[hasty warren]

They are sodimm, my laptop is ddr5
And those are the only 4800 sticks
Others are more Hz (more won't benefit my laptop basically)

You know what, im thinking why upgrade... But at the same time, current 16gb is hurting my productivity (I need more ram)

[tidal geyser]

but sodimm can do what was it 5600 i think it was or was it 5200

[tidal geyser]

how fast is the stuff that is already in it?

[hasty warren]

4800

My laptop takes 4800 max

Current are samsung sticks

[tidal geyser]

2x8?

[rigid fjord]

really depends on the cpu for that

[hasty warren]

Pretty much max performance
But low capacity

Yes 2x8

[tidal geyser]

you still want to match ram sticks in a laptop

[hasty warren]

I know if I get, I'm getting 2

But is 88 -- 60 a normal price
Also reddit seems to not mind transcend , they say it's basically fine
But I internally doubt it will come close to my current samsung sticks
Anyway just a feeling

[tidal geyser]

[hasty warren]

Yes they said that too

[rigid fjord]

for sodimms, being it's ddr5, it's about average

[hasty warren]

Sorry I don't know if get what you mean
Do you mean ddr5 sodimms are the same generally/in average ?

[rigid fjord]

price wise, it's about average for it to be around 60-88

[hasty warren]

Oh you are talking about the pricr

+tax that's gonna be about 100 for Kingston
So just below 200 for 2 sticks

o _ O yea now kinda I don't hate 16gb that much

I don't hate 200 either, I would like it to stay in my pocket I guess

[random gyro]

holy shit coryxkenshin

[latent pasture]

its not as noticeable on ddr5 laptops
i say just get the cheap 1x16gb instead of being stuck with 2x8
then u can buy a second 16gb for 32 later
if ur laptop has dgpu* *
on igpu its something like +70% perf

[shell horizon]

though i was screwed

but i found my aresgame 500w psu

so we gucci now :3

[inland perch]

hi

im getting my ram upgraded in my laptop

DDR4 3200MT/s

what should be the ideal price for it?

[shell horizon]

like

50$ i think

[inland perch]

damn

[inland perch]

8 GB?

i just need 16 GB total

[shell horizon]

oh

prob the same lol

[inland perch]

oh okay,thanks!

[strange atlas]

I wonder if i took one of these on mine :d

i mean my temps are low so probably i took it right?

[teal sinew]

if your temps are good under load then yeah you removed it

or it didnt have one

[strange atlas]

it did have one and i was gonna remove it but i feel like i didnt remove it at the end cause i cant have the image of that time in my mind

I dont remember like peeling it off

[strange atlas]

but yes i have r5 5600 and got thermalright phantom assassin underload its around 75 celcius

[jovial swan]

Would this be alright for gaming, i only play hearts of iron (strategy game), Warthunder, and modded Minecraft

Its 830$ (dkk)

Also to be used with some army software

[gleaming rose]

julian casablancas aged so poorly

[frosty prism]

wtf is rtx 3000 LMAO

why dont you just get a pc

unless you need it portable then sure i guess

[gleaming rose]

tmobile home internet came through when it mattered most

never purchased a game faster in my life, took me less than 30s after launch

[jovial swan]

Its a quadro.

[jovial swan]

I need something rugged aswell,

[limber nacelle]

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/quadro-rtx-3000-mobile.c3428 tu106 based mobile quadro

[jovial swan]

Oh hey Ive been in this discord for 5 years soon yippie

[frosty prism]

why dont you just get a pc

[frail delta]

Umm

[limber nacelle]

oh its a turding gpu

[frosty prism]

way more performance for what your paying and i dont think you'll be moving that much either way

[frail delta]

Because they need a laptop

[jovial swan]

Because most laptops that has the specs im looking for Arent rugged enough, also security issues could arise, since i wanna use it for intelligence.

I have a desktop already, but i want something portable

[jovial swan]

Doesnt matter about moving, i need something portable,

[brisk sundial]

lmk how it is!

[hybrid acorn]

There are some rugged laptops with dedicated GPUs, they just happen to cost like 10 bands

[jovial swan]

Yeah, and im in Denmark, so stuff is expensive asf,

[hybrid acorn]

Honest opinion? Build a PC and VM into it for gaming and then buy a Dell rugged laptop used on eBay

Sunshine and moonlight are very good

And free

[jovial swan]

I have a desktop already lol, its got a RTX 4070, Ryzen 7 7700 and 32 gigs of ram, aint the issue

[hybrid acorn]

Then just buy a toughbook

[jovial swan]

Just gotta get something portable and stuff, dell or Lenovo should do

[jovial swan]

Imma do that i forgot they existed

[hybrid acorn]

I want one of those super heavy duty laptops but I can't justify their insane prices

For frankly terrible specs

But if you need a laptop you can chuck out a window onto concrete and be ok then you kinda have to buy one

[dawn tundra]

wait wait wait sas is scsi??

[dawn tundra]

[dawn tundra]

[frail delta]

Wait, what does SAS mean?

[bleak ledge]

How hot can a PSU get before I should start worrying?

[dawn tundra]

Serial Attached SCSI

[dawn tundra]

i just found that out

[dark comet]

should I be worried if there's so many open box products at canada computers

[frail delta]

That was the joke 🙂

[limpid dune]

yay, cheap GPUs

[crude blade]

now im sure this is garbage, but man this pc looks cool. Is it a horrible trash deal? I also don't know much about ekwb https://www.ekwb.com/shop/stl-dream-spirit

[gleaming rose]

i'm really enjoying inzoi

[gleaming rose]

EK doesn't build pcs

[crude blade]

they sure seem to? https://www.ekwb.com/shop/gaming-pcs

[gleaming rose]

wtf

[crude blade]

you might wanna tell ek that

[gleaming rose]

well uhh i would personally just diy it at that point - will be way cheaper

[crude blade]

yeah but im thinking like hypothetical

is it a horrible deal or is it actually fine

[sullen obsidian]

EK might claim they make pc's but whether you actually get one these days is another story

[crude blade]

they sell one that's 7k 😵‍💫

[sonic glacier]

Hello, is there anyone that can help me with Nvidia display scaling? My display is 1360x768 and it's not enough for some websites to even show properly. I want to set 1920x1080 in Nvidia with fullscreen scaling and it isn't working properly. I've tried everything. Even the desktop size setting and I can get it to 1650xsomething and the aspect ratio isn't right. I just want to get it to 1920x1080 and scale it for my display size so I can see the whole screen.

[sleek ibex]

I love that emoticon

[frosty oriole]

Enable DSR in Nvidia control panel.

[frail delta]

I can sell you a $70k computer if you want

[crude blade]

slightly out of budget i believe

[frail delta]

That better?

[crude blade]

?????????

what even is that

[frail delta]

Thanks for the fantastic pricing Dicker

[frail delta]

A Dell Poweredge

[sonic glacier]

Can't set it to one display at one time, my other display is 2k and I can't set 1080p in dsr

[sand epoch]

i don't even think nvidia will make consumer GPUs for long

they're making trillions from ai and now they collabed to make newton

[frosty oriole]

Ah, dang. I'm not sure then, sorry.

[frail delta]

Billions*

[sand epoch]

they sky rocketed to trillions when they came to ai gpu market lol

[sonic glacier]

I tried setting the 1080p resolution on the display and fullscreen scaling so it adapts and it get's bigger but not enough

[sand epoch]

they're worth 3 trillion

[frail delta]

2024 NVIDIA revenue was $131B USD

[sand epoch]

i hope amd makes good high end cards

i might switch over to amd after that

[cedar hollow]

they wont

[sand epoch]

4090 beat 7900xtx's ass very hard , i hope next gen is soemthing different

[wheat aspen]

why does my cpu light on motherboard go red when I turn on my pc

[cedar hollow]

AMD had one chance to compete at the high end and it was this gen when NVIDIA made zero technological improvements

[wheat aspen]

and then my computer completely gets fucked

[sand epoch]

because you bought a pipebomb and that's the indication you set off the fuse

it's going to explode any moment now

[wheat aspen]

no I bought a i9 13900k

[sand epoch]

what do you use it for?

[cedar hollow]

pipebomb and 13900K, sounds about right

[wheat aspen]

Fortnite

and Minecraft

[swift moss]

They aren't MAKING that money though, that's share price X amount of shares
