Hello once again, which 1tb drive would you guys recommend, looking for durability as the key selling point, price doesnt matter too much.
980 pro and 990 pro are having issues.
Looks like the P41 platinum also has issues.
WD was the one that died on my friend.

Any help with that?

(i cant find a datasheet for the controller cuz its like proprietary or something and they removed the i2c pads off the pcb for anything thats not an XTX)

Hey I need PC help asap, I just built a new rig with a Ryzen 7 9800x3d in it, everytime I run a program the cpu shoots up to high temps, my AIO is the Corsair Rgb elite h100, I have the AIO in the cpu opt header and the fans hooked up too.

#

The am4 and am5 bracket is cross compatiable right, same one will work that I’ve been using

#

I got the cable with the grey lines dotted in it hooked up to cpu opt and the solid black to cpu fans, is that my issue?

#

Can anyone help? If so thanks!

limpid kernel
low sage
#

Thermal paste

#

That’s about it, nothing else

#

I’m in uefi right now and it’s sitting at 35, but whenever I run an application or something the temps shoot up

limpid kernel
#

yeah i have no clue sorry

#

i just know a lot of people forget to remove the film off tower coolers

#

didn't know if aios had the same stuff

azure topaz
#

this will especially happen in multi core workloads

#

nothing to worry about as long as your cpu is performing as expected

blissful kernel
#

why would one feel the impulse to buy this

azure topaz
#

god forbid someone buys something cool

low sage
#

so its meant to be that hot?

azure topaz
#

yes

low sage
#

well I open chrome and it shoots up to 62 C

azure topaz
#

thats fine bro

#

download and run cinebench r23, then screenshot the result and send it here

blissful kernel
dapper light
#

As long as it's not thermal throttling, it's good.

azure topaz
#

62c is perfectly adequate for a cpu 😭

low sage
#

where do I find the cinebench download?

azure topaz
azure topaz
low sage
#

will cinebench tell me if its thermal throttling?

real lantern
#

what

azure topaz
#

ill be able to tell you if its under performing or not

low sage
#

aight fs

azure topaz
#

which is really all you should care about 👍

#

make sure minimum test duration is set to off

#

if you cant see that setting, in the top left of the window itll say "file" and theres an option that says advanced benchmark or something

low sage
#

okay then I select cpu multi core?

azure topaz
#

yuh

low sage
azure topaz
#

yeesh that is a bit bad

low sage
#

@azure topaz good or no/

#

temps stayed at 60C during that though

#

I did go around in bios and change some things I seen on youtube

azure topaz
#

oh thats probably why

low sage
azure topaz
#

turned down the power limit or something

low sage
#

so should I reverse what I did in that video ?

azure topaz
#

👍

low sage
#

or just leave it the way it is

sinful cobalt
#

yo lowk i wanna experiment with dual gpus with lossless

low sage
#

alright fs, ill brb

sinful cobalt
#

both pcie slots on my x870 steel legend are x16

but i cant use the 5070ti aero bcs ts big as fk

low sage
#

Illl run cinebench now again

#

@azure topaz

solid crown
#

kinda crazy how cinebench is literally irrelevant for gaming performance

azure topaz
#

you should be getting about 23k

azure topaz
#

bros just wondering if his chip is throttling and performing as it should 😭

low sage
#

is it thermal throttling then

solid crown
azure topaz
low sage
#

any suggestions on how to fix it?

azure topaz
#

try remounting the cooler? adjust the pump so its at 80 or 90% all the time and the fans on the aio so theyre at a constant speed that isnt loud

solid crown
#

I mean is the 23k core from reddit

#

reddit cinebench scores are bs fr

azure topaz
#

20-23k is what like every source online is saying

solid crown
#

alright

white mirage
#

AC Shadow performance on 4090 , Res : 3440x1440 , RTX ON max

low sage
#

so I have the the cable from the AIO that has grey lines in it in the CPU opt header, did I mismatch them by accident?

solid crown
#

just making sure cause looking online everyone has a 13900k thatll hit 42K ez never goes above 70c

azure topaz
#

possible he just has a gummed up os or somethin but i feel like 20k seems legit

solid crown
#

lol

What factors affect how quickly a game downloads (Im mainly talking about the hardware in the computer, not my internet routers)

solid crown

even a browser will drop the score quite a bit

signal rgb

#

hwinfo

solid crown
#

signal rgb takes a lot of cpu power thats probably why

azure topaz
#

yeah so probably not as bad as i thought

solid crown
#

253w limit though

azure topaz
#

tbf thats when mine is absolutely cranked

#

idk what i get on my daily ht off config one second

solid crown
#

like when I had signal rgb I swear it was using like 5% of the 13900k which is outrageous

low sage
#

I just got that much now with the temps up in the 90s

azure topaz
#

yaaay

solid crown
low sage
#

so is it thermal throttling or am I just using the cpu

azure topaz
#

just using it

low sage
azure topaz
#

ur good, dont use those wackass youtube settings 👍

low sage
#

okay, so my CPU isnt gonna explode at this high of a temp?

azure topaz
#

naw, designed to hit it constantly

low sage
#

and the lifespan wont be drastically diminished?

azure topaz
#

naw, amd's words, not mine

solid crown
low sage
#

alright so we arent thermal throttling and the CPU is meant to get that hot? crazy change from my ryzen 7 3700x LMAO

azure topaz
#

yeah

solid crown
#

am5 has a thicker IHS so it stayed compatible with AM4 coolers

azure topaz
low sage
#

yeah i got a 240mm corsair am4 cooler and it fits in it

solid crown
#

so AM5 is kinda gimped in the temperature department

azure topaz
#

yea...

low sage
#

so my CPU is meant to run that hot and im getting the right performance?

azure topaz
#

yes

solid crown
#

but if you ever decide to delid the CPU youll have insane temperature drops

low sage
#

i was lowk bugging yall

#

so now my pc is good and I shouldnt worry?

solid crown
solid crown
azure topaz
#

yea but urs is silly ht on no bueno

i didnt think my CPU was meant to run this hot LMFAO

low sage

how would I know if it thermal throttles

#

when I launch rivals it gets up to 90c

azure topaz
#

watch the clocks of it while you play

low sage
#

in hwinfo?

azure topaz
#

sure

#

if they go down drastically and your gpu isnt at 100% usage anymore its probably throttling

solid crown
formal sonnet
tough nacelle
#

guys pro tech tip hand sanitizer is amazing for cleaning mouse pads also when it drys it makes the mouse more smoother

azure topaz
#

they will always thermal throttle, they dynamically target 95c, so its going to vary

azure topaz
solid crown
#

which brand

azure topaz
#

frozen infinity from thermalright

solid crown
#

awh

azure topaz
#

in that its only at like 70 or 75c

low sage
#

is this decent on rivals?

solid crown
#

I thought we were arctic liquid freezer buddies

azure topaz
low sage
#

hell yeah, alright bud thank ya

azure topaz
#

hoverying between 70 and 100w or so

#

in games you wont ever throttle, your cooler is much too beefy for that

#

unless something is wrong but cinebench showed all good

solid crown
#

god man intel needs to get their shit together

#

seeing 70w on a cpu that is the fastest gaming cpu is crazy

azure topaz
#

i game at like 70watts as well

#

or less, sometimes more, basically the same range as current amd chips tho

solid crown
#

my 13900k def hits its max 253w a lot in my games

azure topaz
#

what the hell are you doing to that poor thing

solid crown
#

in dragon age veilguard that game killed my old aio lol

azure topaz
#

maybe in loading screens but thats like wild during normal gameplay

low sage
#

I just heard this like high pitched sorta quiet noise when I had rivals running

azure topaz
#

coil whine, also normal

low sage
#

coming from my mobo wtf is that

solid crown
low sage
#

Ah okay I was wondering man, this is a huge upgrade from my rx 5700 xt and my 7 3700x LOL

azure topaz
#

unavoidable, happens when more current is goin through X part makin it whine a lil

solid crown
#

usually in higher fps games

azure topaz
#

yea

low sage
#

oh yeah I got rivals rocking rn LOL

solid crown
#

which is why you probably notice it more in rivals vs cyberpunk or something

azure topaz
low sage
#

okay so with my CPU, I dont need to worry about the high temps, that isnt thermal throttling that is just me using the CPU, i lowk sh oulda known that

azure topaz
#

youll end up with a way better experience

solid crown
low sage
#

yall are goated frl

solid crown
#

but ive had it enough with trying to keep the temps down

azure topaz
#

ive said it many times here that i think the 13900ks/14900k/13900k/14900ks are unusable on stock settings

solid crown
#

I dont have a gpu rn so ill do the cpu stuff when I get one

azure topaz
#

but if you fuck with them they end up genuinely incredible 🫡

azure topaz
#

and just slow

#

super high voltages, the works

azure topaz
low sage
#

so the am4 cpus werent made to run at 90C but the am5 ones are?

azure topaz
#

some of the am4 ones got pretty hot too

#

like the 5800x that thing is kinda weirdly hot

#

well its not weird if you know the like reason but whatever

#

but yes

low sage
#

so the ryzen 7 9800x3d running at like 95C under load is normal, and its not thermal throttle, how do I change it so my fans dont adjust based on the temp lmao

azure topaz
#

go into your bios, find whatever bullshit they call the fan curve menu, then set your pump (cpu_opt, probably) to like 90% at all temps, and do the same to your CPU_FAN but at a lower speed

#

so like 90% on the pump all the time and 40-60% on the cpu fans

#

meta way of doing it, makes it so your computer doesnt annoyingly change what noise its making

low sage
#

Uh can’t find that

#

Would it be in Qfan?

azure topaz
#

yes

if someone wasnt ever going to upgrade wed both say the 8700k cause it kicks its ass

never said it was

So um. If you're including the password for <THING> directly alongside <THING>, you may as well not put a password on it in the first place. Rule 46352 of security is NEVER store your decryption keys / passwords / secrets alongside the very thing they're meant to unlock.

# graceful girder can it not be improved?

.... Everything can be improved. But also everything is a trade off. As I said, if you delete stuff, there is a window for recovery, so your risk is limited. If you want less risk, you pay or organize for more/different service.

graceful girder
mellow cairn
#

The service does what it says it does

#

It's pretty reasonable for most people most of the time

graceful girder
#

ok but why not make it better?

mellow cairn
#

Because "better" is relative.

solar moat
mellow cairn
#

"why can't I get more service for the same money?"

solar moat
#

but 50% worse in other metric

graceful girder
#

so what ur saying is my suggestion which could be an optional setting is not "better"

graceful girder
mellow cairn
#

But it's a support nightmare for the default client.

graceful girder
limpid kernel

whats a good monitor for the price? i don't want to spend AUD$300 but i also don't want to be stuck at both 1080p and 75hz with a 6600XT/9600x/32gb DDR5 6000MHz

graceful girder
#

supposed it'd have to be worth it

mellow cairn
#

Also you have to realize that literally millions of people are using these services.

graceful girder
mellow cairn
#

Not to mention that as I said, deleted files are kept as backups already, so you're not in fact adding features anyone needs

mellow cairn
graceful girder
#

i mean on the user's side, if they're there

graceful girder
mellow cairn
#

And suddenly you need a communication channel for the client to send status updates to the system

mellow cairn
graceful girder
mellow cairn
#

First one they logged into today based on their timezone?

#

What if they are in holiday in a different timezone

#

Now you need a way to have a "master" client.

graceful girder
#

would sending to all be difficult? and also why not make it configurable?

mellow cairn
#

I literally design these systems for a living.

#

You're adding complexity where it is 1000000% not required at all.

graceful girder
#

why are u arguing, it seems like a good idea to me

mellow cairn
#

Because you don't understand what you're talking about

graceful girder
#

u have been actively coming up with solutions as i ask questions

graceful girder
mellow cairn
#

And entirely unnecessary

graceful girder
jolly moth
#

Any of y’all know how this even pops open?

mellow cairn
#

A) you can do this yourself if you want with a third party client and/or backup service
B) the cloud service literally already has backups

graceful girder
#

for a company with fuck you money it seems possible

mellow cairn
mellow cairn
#

Also c) the terms and conditions of literally all cloud providers explicitly say that backup is your responsibility.

even with a "paid service"

What are the best 120mm fans nowadays, performance-wise (consumer, not server)?

weak osprey

Or maybe a blahaj

#

Sadly

#

That’s all the IKEAs in the U.S.

weak osprey
#

That’s not why

#

My family is why

mellow shadow
#

Huh

weak osprey

Huh that’s weird I thought the closest one would be in Seattle

#

Where even is that

#

Tacoma

Sketchy ass city tho, the freeway there is scary

Airship?

weak osprey

Not within budget sadly

Maybe a big catapult

#

Consult your local wizard and see if he can cast a teleportation spell?

weak osprey
#

The local witch is sketchy, she’s from practical magic

#

We only have one magic being in town

#

That would help

#

I’m goin prepared

mellow shadow
#

Seek an audience with the king and see if he will grant you safe escort to the IKEA to buy a BLAHAJ

#

I also got an ekbacken countertop

weak osprey
#

I live in the USA… the “king” would have me hung

#

Or just say I am not a real person

#

He’s jealous he can’t get one

weak osprey
#

I don’t think that’s the only reason why

mellow shadow
#

I like my BLAHAJ the tail is squishy

#

It’s also humongous

#

I can see why people like the BLAHAJ

weak osprey
#

Hug the blahaj

#

Did you get the massive Blahaj_spun_edition ?

mellow shadow
#

Yes

weak osprey
#

Nice! Idk if I want the massive Blahaj_spun_edition or the medium blahaj

mellow shadow
#

Once I get my desk setup I’ll post a photo of it flopped out on the desk

IKEA desk?

#

Small BLAHAJ is $10+Tax

lol, did you also get the meatballs?

I wanted a height adjustable one but the one from IKEA was manual and cost more than the motorized one off Amazon

Tuesday special

weak osprey
#

I can’t tell if that’s a fine dining establishment or your house…

#

I think it’s a fine dining establishment

mellow shadow
#

I live in IKEA

mellow shadow
#

Also that’s the IKEA food court

weak osprey
#

So pretty much a fine dining establishment

mellow shadow
#

Tuesday special is buy an adult meal get 2 kids meals for free (IKEA family members only but it’s free to join)

weak osprey
#

Fun

mellow shadow
#

True

weak osprey
#

I have figured it out

#

I shall take a boat to ikea

#

It actually makes more sense than driving

There isn’t Blahaj_spun_edition in the water here, there’s orcas tho

Signal is great… except it doesn’t support literally half the graphics cards

Big pains I’ve been working on lately have been audio issues on Logitech devices

I wonder if and is a PITA for rgb integration or if they just haven’t gotten around to it

I finally found proof that tpu is not a great example for the people who believe that tpu is a good base for performance

The filament?

Ah makes more sense

empty quartz

#

I got to 3d print stainless steel with the special metal 3d printer the other day… it was a safety glasses mold… 500 usd for the whole thing

#

And by whole thing I mean the cost of the filament

#

543 USD

#

It’s crazy

empty quartz

i paid $10 canadian for 1kg of petg filament

weak osprey

Let me whip out the calculator

empty quartz

1000g $10 cad

$10/1000g = $0.01 cad per gram

Uhh

that doesnt even cover rent

rent is $1400/mo, but you make $460/mo?

I live in İstanbul beyoglu where taksim is

Heard a song about that

fuck that shit

#

rent being 3x what one person can make is dumb

strange atlas
#

Normally it wasnt like this in here but in last 4 5 years dollar got up 30 x and all the renters raised money cause why not

#

And like i said in country side you can find a house with 300 dollar rent but not in İstanbul

#

I did work 3 jobs at the time and i still didnt earn enough then i said f it im moving back to my parents 🙉

#

Now i only work in one job still barely make anything but at least i dont get my life taken from me

weak osprey
#

That’s always good

ocean axle
#

i have one job and it takes enough of my time, i cant imagine more than one

#

let alone 3

strange atlas
#

In turkey if they tell you there is like additional job you gotta do it no matter what and %99 of the time you dont get paid for it

ocean axle

mandatory unpaid overtime?

If you dont accept their thing maybe they let you slide one time thats all after that you are gone

Dumb question:Would a 6400 bottleneck an i3 10105 F?

mellow cairn
weak osprey
#

I personally enjoy the t14 gen 2 used but since your budget is higher than mine was I’d suggest a t14 gen 3/4 used, please look at those and decide for yourself, don’t ask people things then just trust them, make sure it works for your use case

A 6400 is a terrible card that shouldn't exist

If your computer would be faster with a different CPU, it doesn't mean it's "bottlenecked"

The computer repair dudes is definitely trying to rip me off or he's very outdated in terms of tech... He said he cant install the powersuplly because it's wayy to big (i told replace my "fingers polonium 400 brun down he hose psu with an MWE 450) both have a 1 mm difference. And I asked for a 1060 or a 6400 and he said that I'll have to put ina new motherboard, ram and a CPU for that

I like mint

It’s simple

mellow cairn
bronze jay
#

From what I can tell mint is kubuntu but with some guard rails

weak osprey
#

Mint or manjaro are my favs but I know the Ubuntu commands better so I usually stick to mint as it’s the Ubuntu kernel

bronze jay
#

I need to install the 550 drivers to use kubuntu but I don't know how, and people are saying that the mouse freezing with later drivers is a solveable problem

#

I have an extra drive that I'm testing with

mellow cairn
#

I was using WSL, and it's fine enough, but it sucks vs actual linux

bronze jay
#

but my motherboard will only detect one bootable drive at a time, so every time I test Kubuntu, I have to run the setup process again

#

And I've kind of just accepted that things will not work properly for me, so I just deal with it
