tech-chat-1

[low sage]

I see I see, im looking at colleges currently, any advice you can give someone who is trying to get into the tech field like that & go to college for IT, cyber security, or networking?

[tidal geyser]

well yeah i do know that but at the same time i do want some knowledge about it and actually having done the stuff the test is about

[rustic glade]

Hey! Could anyone help me pick between some smart watches? Im not sure where to ask

[low sage]

apple one

[rustic glade]

I have a samsung

[low sage]

i got a series 6, its great

[vale wing]

im bored of smoking weed and taking shrooms all day

[tidal geyser]

will it be used for piracy?

[rustic glade]

Thinking either the Nothing CMF Watch Pro 2 or the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4

[clear canyon]

build a little homelab and just try shit on it. It does not need to be fancy, it just needs around 6 cores 12 threads and 32 gigs of ram and some storage to where you can do a couple VMs and what not. You would be suprised how dumb people are when they first go into the IT field, 99% of the students dont know what a cpu is

[vale wing]

for legal reasons I decline to answer

[clear canyon]

this is based off of my experience

[tired bear]

best advice
just start doing stuff
if you want to go into networking download packet tracer, do something in it
when limitation of PT come up move to gns3

[low sage]

what would i run the vms off of? virtubox?

[clear canyon]

we dont care, I pirate anime and movies

[vale wing]

but what is the cheapest psu i could buy that wont make my pc explode? the a550bn?

[vale wing]

yeah it'll probably be used for pirating

its in a fucked up phanteks case lmao

[clear canyon]

I use TrueNas scale (its all free), but you can do other softwares too

[low sage]

I placed 4th in a competition for computer network tech, not saying I know my stuff but I feel like I would be able to succeed in the field. I have tried cisco packet tracer before to prep for the comp, it was pretty cool.

[tidal geyser]

o i have a lot of stuff for dis

[clear canyon]

i hate packet tracer due to a bad expereince with a teacher

[tired bear]

hyperv, kvm(proxmox) and vmware
triangle of hypervisors

[vale wing]

i can never figure out how to pirate properly, theres always some issue and the file moves and the app just stops working after awhile

annoys the shit out of me

[low sage]

Building networks is pretty difficult even if its a simulation one, learning what a switch does, a hub, etc, is really hard to do, most routers are ran off of linux right?

[tidal geyser]

i would never ever pirate

[low sage]

and you can just connect to the router through like hyperV or something yes?

[clear canyon]

@vale wing I use this psu for my homelab currently: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CGFZVGF9?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

[clear canyon]

ah yes, the "barrowed" folders 😉

[hexed tapir]

I super legally pay a single streaming service $35 a year to access every streaming platform in a very legal way

[rustic glade]

anyone?

[clear canyon]

same

[vale wing]

86 dollars holy shit

[tired bear]

could be linux, could be propriatary software

[vale wing]

is there no psu for like $40-50

[clear canyon]

thats not expensive

[low sage]

Right, linux is used cause its so easy to run, not a resource hog

[clear canyon]

oh so you want a bomb, i see

[tired bear]

picopsu maybe but you will still need 12v psu to supply it

[low sage]

I really hate deleting things through like windows command prompt or on linux, the commands are sorta hard to all remember so i got a masterlist saved LOL

[tidal geyser]

funny thing i do have most of the shows i watch on a streaming service but downloading means i am able to get higher quality and it tends to load faster and just be better

[clear canyon]

all type 1 hypervisors are BareMetal and usually consist of being linux based

[hexed tapir]

And no ads

[low sage]

an router is practically like a computer just bare bones on linux right?

it doesnt have a GUI or anything just basic command line

[clear canyon]

yes

[clear canyon]

no, it can have a ui

[tidal geyser]

well non of the streaming sites i have do that well at least the tier used

[low sage]

would it be like a UEFI or a bios gui?

[tidal geyser]

linux?

[vale wing]

wdyt about the kratos by gamdias

according to the psu chart its a c-tier for about $50

[clear canyon]

no bios or uefi, just a ui for config

[tidal geyser]

well up to where you are looking what OS its running and so on

[low sage]

Ah, okay cool.

[clear canyon]

dude, dont cheap out on a psu

[vale wing]

IM BROKE !!!!!

[low sage]

yeah if u are running a server its meant to be up and super reliable so id say get a good quality PSU

[tired bear]

everything is configured via CLI, atleast initially via serial cable
try getting comfortable in it and you will do stuff faster than on gui

[clear canyon]

you are gonna waste your money, save up

[tidal geyser]

well a cheap psu will make the pc broken

[vale wing]

whats wrong with a c tier psu

like out of curiosity

[hexed tapir]

Would you cheap out on a surgeon operating on you

[clear canyon]

yeah, much faster

[vale wing]

im american

[clear canyon]

its ass, dont do it

[vale wing]

yes

[low sage]

america has some of the best healthcare its just expensive lmfao

[tired bear]

no clicking through menu just paste into putty

[vale wing]

ughhh

[clear canyon]

its very nice

[vale wing]

ok maybe I should sink a little more

[low sage]

save money you can get a good corsair PSU for like 80-100$

[low sage]

if you see it recommended more than once id assume it was good lol

guys I couldve gotten a rtx 5070 or the 7900xt, I chose the 7900xt did I choose right?

[clear canyon]

@vale winghttps://www.lttlabs.com/categories/power-supplies

[tired bear]

gui can be anything from basic html without css like on old c2690 switches to very good ones

[ashen tangle]

Chat should my friend get this?

[low sage]

i got the 9800x3d and mobo, and ram for like 500

[ashen tangle]

WHERE???

[low sage]

microcenter?!!!!

[ashen tangle]

Hmmmmm

[low sage]

microcenter dudeee

[ashen tangle]

He’s in sf tho so I think he has to wait until it’s built

[low sage]

san francisco?

theres no microcenter there?

[ashen tangle]

Yes

[ashen tangle]

There isn’t one

[limpid ivy]

Yet but if they’re willing to drive to Santa Clara when that location opens

[tidal grove]

Current Case:
Antec ax51 elite (39$)
New case:
Antec CX300 argb (47$)

Well current case's side panel broke and theres literally no way to get a side panel here and even if i diy a mesh panel it gonna cost me 25$ and thats why was thinking of buying a case.
Current case has 3 intake 1 exhaust pre installed fans which gets me max 65° rarely on games and Mostly in the 50's zone (specs given below). And idk about airflow and stuff i know nzxt or something would be better but third world country has everything overpriced and even this "47$ case" seems expensive here. Fishtank cases were my dream ever since i learned about pcs and buying a proper one isn't possible for me.
My question is,If i buy the CX300 case which has 4 pre installed fans already and take the 4 fans from current case and put em in the new case that way i have 3 intake fans front,3 intake/exhaust on the top,1 exhaust in back and 1 in lower part of case

Would the airflow be good ? My current setup barely reaches 65° but if given super intensive task doesn't exceed 75°

SPECS:
Ryzen 7 7700 (IGPU)

Deepcool AG400 argb air cooler

32gb ddr5 Corsair rgb ram

MSI PRO B650M-B motherboard,

Gigabyte
GP P-650G 80+gold psu

would the antec cx300 be a good upgrade to the broken side panel replaced with plastic bag antec ax51 elite ?
or if anymore good cases near that budget (6000 TAKA) pls lemme know.

[limpid ivy]

Forgot that there was a MicroCenter around the Bay Area but it closed a while back so nice to see it back.

[ashen tangle]

Bro it’s MICROCENTER

[tidal grove]

sorry for long text im kinda new

[ashen tangle]

I think he’ll care less

[limpid ivy]

[ebon mulch]

what to ugprade https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/wYX9FZ

thats not my actual case and psu btw

i just snagged some case that looked similar but i think with a disc drive

and the psu just came with the case

[tidal grove]

can any "case specialist" or someone help me out ? i dont wanna make a bad decision

[ebon mulch]

i think it was a used combo or someth

like a 400W psu

[tidal geyser]

5700X3D and 5090

[true stirrup]

3 intake on the front/side (whatever you want to call it), 3 exhaust on the top, 1 exhaust on the back, 1 intake on the bottom
Or 2 exhaust top, 2 intake bottom

[ebon mulch]

arent those the expensive parts

[tidal geyser]

ummmmm maybe

[ebon mulch]

i only have like £200 max but ideally id spend less

idc if that means buying used or stuff

[tidal geyser]

r5 3600 and rx 6600 xt should be decent but main issue is that we do not know what psu

[ebon mulch]

i mean its rated for 400W

i think its a Dell PSU

[tidal grove]

THANKS FOR THE CORRECTION but is the new case worth it ?

[tidal geyser]

so we do not know anything at all about it

[true stirrup]

The 5090 is only ~2500-3000$

[vale wing]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-infinity-war-everything-avengers-gif-14066494

[ebon mulch]

someone told me

[true stirrup]

Cases are mostly just personal preference for aesthetics
Any case with a mesh front panel is going to be fine

[ebon mulch]

Dell PSUs are better then cheap "Gamer PSUs" because the are built to last

[tidal geyser]

but we know nothing about it

[ebon mulch]

idk

what would u recommend. i mean im guessing its 400W rated

[tidal geyser]

pic of it

pic of the insides

[ebon mulch]

one min

[tidal grove]

ive heard people say "oh no cheap fish tanks have bad airflow and stuff" type shit and im scared because the case i have currently looks like crap,is real small and doesn't match the aesthetics i would want it

[ebon mulch]

i have it buried behind a bunch of dvds and books and stuff

[onyx lake]

Cringe buy the nvidia a800 it’s way cheaper

[ebon mulch]

its gonna be hard work

[tidal geyser]

O SHII since this is some dell shit build it means it has a AM4 cpu but it cant be FKN UPGRADED RAAAAAAAAAAAA

[ebon mulch]

nah

[onyx lake]

yk what’s even better? the dell dgp4C

[ebon mulch]

i only got the dell case and psu combo

the rest is the parts i said in the pc part picker

idk about the ssd

but otherwise ye

[tidal geyser]

hm

[tidal geyser]

what

[ebon mulch]

i think some OEM

was buying the PCs but then selling off the case and psu

[tidal geyser]

dell psu with a consumer motherboard??????????????????

[ebon mulch]

i bought it used for like £35

it was way cheaper then buying a seperate new case and psu

[tidal geyser]

wait does the pc work

[onyx lake]

that gpu is only 71k usd !

[ebon mulch]

ofc

its just slow for some reason. im struggling to run games

[onyx lake]

harddrive or ssd

[ebon mulch]

i bought a bunch of games for christmas, hogwarts legacy and stuff

[onyx lake]

what is the model number of the system

[ebon mulch]

and i had to drop it to like 720p

just to get 60 fps

[true stirrup]

You shouldn't worry about that
The difference is very minimal and you won't notice it. If you are at 60°C right now a case will not push you to 90°C when you should start worrying

[tidal geyser]

you have a cpu with the performance of like a 15 year old cpu or something in there

[onyx lake]

how do you know the motherboard is compatible with the case/ psu

[tidal geyser]

dell stopped doing 24 pin a LONG LONG LONG time ago

[ebon mulch]

idk

i built it and everything went together

i looked up some pc build tutorial on youtube

[onyx lake]

If i were you id sell the entire pc and then just do a new build lol

[ebon mulch]

i only have like £200

[onyx lake]

it has a 1300x?

[ebon mulch]

i dont have a lot of money. im working minimum wage rn

i just want a PC that plays all my games well

[gilded sparrow]

updated cable management

[ebon mulch]

i dont have the same money to get a new PC like i did when i was a teenager

[tidal geyser]

update the bios then r5 3600 and rx 6600

[low sage]

i got the corsair 4000d frame argb case

so clean ngl

[charred sundial]

Please do not mind the fan in the back not having RGB im still working on that and dont get mad cuz of cable management here's my finished(-ish) build!!!

[ebon mulch]

rx?

[onyx lake]

yeah and make sure you have a good ssd that’s not bogged down by software

[ebon mulch]

isnt gtx better

[tidal geyser]

what

[gilded sparrow]

right side is before

[onyx lake]

lmao

[charred sundial]

And yes this is MATX in an ATX case

[clear canyon]

?

[vale wing]

chill the guy has no idea

[clear canyon]

lmao no

[onyx lake]

no it depends, competing brands, amd and nvidia

[cunning flume]

someone got into my pc anyone knows how to get them out

[vale wing]

kill them

[low sage]

GTX IS ANCIENT

[ebon mulch]

oh

[low sage]

what

[ebon mulch]

so what do i get

[vale wing]

1080 and 1080ti still pulls

[low sage]

wdym someone got into your PC cuh

[ebon mulch]

does nvidia not make gpus anymore

[low sage]

ikkkkk

[charred sundial]

Like a hacker?? 😭

[vale wing]

rx 6600

[onyx lake]

a 1080 ti is great. but a 750 ti is horrible. a rx 5500xt is horrible but a 9070xt is awesome. it depends on what gpu you’re getting man

[ebon mulch]

how much is it

[charred sundial]

Or someone physically put themselves into your pcs case

[low sage]

win key + r

[onyx lake]

but gtx is old, it’s rtx now

[low sage]

then type in MRT, then run that

[ebon mulch]

what about like

[warm bluff]

Should I go for 5080 or 9070xt. I would be paying 620 for the 9070 and 1100 for 5080. It’s for my first gpu for my pc, been waiting 2 months for one

[cunning flume]

i downloaded some virus nad now my task manager is opening some mrrrtttts server and other 2 host things im just spam closing it

[dark comet]

I think this ☝️

[low sage]

win key + r key, then look up MRT and run that : )

[tidal geyser]

reinstall windows

[true stirrup]

It's been RTX since 2018

[clear canyon]

1080ti used to be great, its too old now

[ebon mulch]

is this good https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CSPRNRZC?tag=pcp0f-21&linkCode=ogi&th=1

[dark comet]

With how big full towers are these days it is possible

[low sage]

you could just factory reset yeah lmfao

but some malware embeds itself on your m.2

[true stirrup]

No

[vale wing]

underpowered card

[clear canyon]

no

[ebon mulch]

idk

[dark comet]

What games you playing

[ebon mulch]

i searched up rtx gpu in amazon and it came up first

[charred sundial]

Id say first win key + r, type MRT, click run, then do a full reinstall of windows.

[ebon mulch]

150 is a bit expensive tho

[dark comet]

Erm

[ebon mulch]

ideally its be like 100 maybe 130 max

[vale wing]

@ebon mulch https://www.ebay.com/itm/316586251550?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ysr-aztFQ9y&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=taplsfdksbi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[dark comet]

Someone tell him 🥲

[gilded sparrow]

rate the insise

[charred sundial]

Save up more

[west robin]

Guys, do cat5 and cat7 cables use the same connectors? I'm getting mixed google results and someone in here probably knows

[ebon mulch]

cant i just get a rt 3030 or something

[clear canyon]

you wont be able to get a gpu then

[vale wing]

what budget are we talking btw

[ebon mulch]

how much is that

[gilded sparrow]

i believe ao

[dark comet]

@ebon mulch what are you planning on playing or doing with the pc

[clear canyon]

does not exsist

[ebon mulch]

whats a gpu for like 100 to 140

[tidal geyser]

rx 6600 stomps it for like 100$

[ebon mulch]

do i have to buy something used

[gilded sparrow]

Doesn't exist lowest rtx card in 30 series is 3050

[clear canyon]

there isnt any

[tidal geyser]

yes

[low sage]

Rate my first pc built I’ve ever done

[vale wing]

you are not gonna find a rx 6600 for $100 what world are you living on

[charred sundial]

Kaleem is this an april fools joke that's like really bad

[ebon mulch]

is there a good used gpu for that price in the UK

[latent gull]

I wanna see someone physically put themselves in my pc case

[gilded sparrow]

a used pretty much any 20 series a rx 580

[west robin]

Yeah from what I can tell they use the same connector but different standards, like usb 2.0 vs 3.0

[clear canyon]

can you take a normal pic of it with the side pannel off

[charred sundial]

How big is your pc case

[low sage]

Yesss

[tidal geyser]

Norway

[latent gull]

Honestly, if they can do it, they deserve it

[onyx lake]

like 200 ish usd

[gilded sparrow]

Yes

[ebon mulch]

where is 1050 ti

btw my 1050 ti is OC is that good

[tidal geyser]

i got a 2080 super for 120$

[dark comet]

You can get a gpu (garbage possessing unit) at Walmart for around 50 bucks

[tidal geyser]

96GB of ram ddr5 6400MT for 100$

[onyx lake]

and you can get a r5 3600 for 50 usd on aliexpress

[ebon mulch]

send

[charred sundial]

Ooo that A380 is looking mighty fine with 20 fps

[clear canyon]

1050ti is way too weak now days

[cunning flume]

mine is so good it says insuficient vram for every game made after 2020

[ebon mulch]

everyone was saying

when i got it its the best gpu for budget

[gilded sparrow]

no

[clear canyon]

yeah, almost 10 years ago

[vale wing]

real talk he can probably get a rx 5700xt for $130

[tidal geyser]

here you go

[ebon mulch]

rx

[true stirrup]

Easily

[charred sundial]

LMAOOO

[ebon mulch]

isnt amd dodgy. i had a friend who had an amd gpu before

[west robin]

It probably couldn't really do the 1440p ultra test, on the website they have legacy card data to compare to

[tidal geyser]

yes rx

[ebon mulch]

and it broke itself from a drive

[charred sundial]

Nice

[ebon mulch]

and its just sitting in a land fill now

[vale wing]

you're buying budget, amd is gonna be your guy

[gilded sparrow]

actually id argue they are the least dodgy

[clear canyon]

bruh, take a normal picture

[low sage]

Doing a windows update so colors aren’t in sync

[true stirrup]

AMD is great

[charred sundial]

Sir your photo is mounted sideways

[vale wing]

@ebon mulch check dms

[charred sundial]

...

[low sage]

There you go kings

[onyx lake]

a 5700 or 5700xt would be a great option. i bought a rx 5700 for 80 bucks USD

[charred sundial]

THANK YOU

[hexed tapir]

Been using the same amd gpu for nearly 6 years

[dark comet]

@ebon mulch you can get the rtx 4090 for around 250 cad on eBay, but it is only the case and fans with no chip so you might have to make that yourself idk

[onyx lake]

not in the slightest

[low sage]

It’s my first ever PC build I’ve done what y’all think of it?

[clear canyon]

looks solid, nice job

[empty mantle]

my rx 580 has run just fine for over 10 years and I can get 100+ fps in most games with decent to max settings depending on the game

[ebon mulch]

wait

can i get it cheaper then 250 like 100 or something

[cunning flume]

rx 580 is better for that price

[gilded sparrow]

@ebon mulch im going to tell u this out right u buy a gpu for like 140 new besides like rx580 and a few other u will be heartbroken just save up more bud take our advice stop trying to make an excuse about everything we suggest

[ebon mulch]

im guessing the rtx 4090 is a good gpu

[low sage]

There’s no gpu sag either it’s nice

[vale wing]

580 is gonna lose support real soon

[true stirrup]

Second best

[ebon mulch]

wait

[agile stag]

who pays 140 for a 580

[ebon mulch]

what gamse do u play

[tidal geyser]

what??

[ebon mulch]

but all my games are lagging. what happened to cheap gpus

[vale wing]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/126573553922?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=I8ORr0BxSt6&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=taplsfdksbi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[hexed tapir]

On some 5700 you can flash the XT bios for added performance

[onyx lake]

what are you talking about LMFAO

[gilded sparrow]

wht gou u running

[tidal geyser]

it lost it like 2-3 years ago

[ebon mulch]

1050 ti OC

[tidal geyser]

no wait a lot longer

[onyx lake]

a rx 580 is WAY worse than A 5700

[vale wing]

😭

a 5700xt equals like what

[dark comet]

I'm gonna get. 7800 xt or 9070 xt for like $700-900 and they aren't even the highest end ones

[vale wing]

a 2070?

[ebon mulch]

thats good

[gilded sparrow]

peiple who are in a really tight spot and can't buy used

[ebon mulch]

what cpu should i get for like 65 or less

[tidal geyser]

nope i lied only a year

[agile stag]

maybe they deserve to be scammed

[true stirrup]

3060/6600xt

[dark comet]

What games are you gonna play

[agile stag]

whatever fits in your board

[vale wing]

yeah then I'd say the 5700xt is solid for his uses

[empty mantle]

I have run +100 in Minecraft with shaders, valorant, csgo, cod, gta, ect.

[ebon mulch]

asus a320

[dark comet]

You'll get like 120 fps on vanilla Minecraft ig

[gilded sparrow]

oke leave the 580 alone it did well for what is was and is still kinda valid now

[vale wing]

a 1050ti -> 5700xt is a solid upgrade

[ebon mulch]

how good compared to 1050 ti

[onyx lake]

they’re everywhere! just used man. Go out a buy a 5700xt or 5700, or even a used 2060 super or 2070 super or something. just make sure it’s a good price

[gilded sparrow]

yes

[vale wing]

SIGNIFICANTLY

[onyx lake]

a 1050 ti absolutely sucks so much

[agile stag]

the 580 is fire i still own one

[tidal geyser]

how mnay pcie 6+2 do you have?

[onyx lake]

yes but for 40 usd or lower , don’t EVER pay higher for a 580

[cunning flume]

when should i switch out my 1650

[agile stag]

people who pay 150 for one though,,,,

[ebon mulch]

idk

[vale wing]

i have a 1050ti in my server pc lmfao

[tidal geyser]

aka how many and what kind of gpu power cables comes form the psu

[gilded sparrow]

yeah they go for like 150 now

[agile stag]

not fire

[ebon mulch]

but when i was building my pc i think i had these 8 pin power cables

[tidal geyser]

i have it in my main and backup

[ebon mulch]

but i only used 1 of them, the other one is just dangling. they said "PCIE" on them

[agile stag]

man i paid 80 for mine and i thought i got a good deal

[tidal geyser]

i really want some pics

[vale wing]

its gotta be a terrible fate that i really want a rtx 3050

[agile stag]

where can i sell it for 150

[true stirrup]

So 2 6+2pin cables

[gilded sparrow]

look if u can't buy used and ur at that price theres nothing really stiping me saying yeah get that for what it is u still get decent to low performance at 1080

[low sage]

i like this cpu a lot

[agile stag]

all the ebay ones are in the 60-80 range

[vale wing]

like i wish the 3050 was like $75

[ebon mulch]

what is 6+2

[onyx lake]

why would you ever pay 150 for a 580. worth 40 dollars max. i bought one recently for 25 dollars lol

[ebon mulch]

is it cuz 6 + 2 = 8

[true stirrup]

The amount of pins the cable has

[ebon mulch]

is it like a naming scheme

[onyx lake]

for 140 you can get a really good 20 series RTX. i bought a 2080 ti for 180 USD

[low sage]

no

[agile stag]

yeah but there has to be a better option and i bet theyre not even new cards

[ebon mulch]

no its just 8

[dark comet]

@ebon mulch

[low sage]

its how many connectors your gpu needs lol

[tidal geyser]

a310

[ebon mulch]

you just plug in 8 and

[ebon mulch]

what is aliexpress

[gilded sparrow]

again for people who can not buy used for idk like people for birthdays or there parents won't let them use reseller websites

[agile stag]

at minimum like a 2060 of some form grr

[onyx lake]

Yeah lol

[low sage]

plz dont get a rtx 3050 : (

[ebon mulch]

sounds weird

looks dodgy

[agile stag]

pls get a 3050 over a 580 if theyre the same price

[gilded sparrow]

i dont teust ali Express

[true stirrup]

Yes but 2 pins can be moved to the side making it a 6pin hence 6+2pin

[cunning flume]

same

[onyx lake]

bro just ask for cash then

[low sage]

what yall thinking about the idle temps

[ebon mulch]

thats fake

[onyx lake]

do NOT let your parents buy a 140 dollar 580

[ebon mulch]

its a durable connecor

[gilded sparrow]

again some people do not have that luxury

[dark comet]

So you know Schrödinger's Cat

[ebon mulch]

i mean its a but mushy to plug in but

[clear canyon]

ew, that cpu is doodoo

[vale wing]

my ultra budget awesome pc:
-gtx 1050ti
-ryzen 5 1500
-1 tb hard drive
-16gb ddr4

[agile stag]

maybe some people arent old enough to be given a medium sized sum of cash

[dark comet]

No shit it was a joke lol

[gilded sparrow]

i don't have that luxury i had to get a 6600 for $209

[ebon mulch]

mate

[agile stag]

youll want an ssd

[ebon mulch]

im 21 years old

[onyx lake]

Bruh

[true stirrup]

Take it out and check
You will see you can make it either a 6pin or an 8 pin

[low sage]

buy a rx 5700xt for like 100 - 150 USD

[ebon mulch]

the reason i dont want to spend al ot of money is because im on minimum wage

[dark comet]

500 GB ssd for that big of budget

[empty quartz]

Lttstore.com

[gilded sparrow]

good thing I'm not talking about you isnt it

[ebon mulch]

its expensive to get food and rent and stuff

[vale wing]

I can fr just cop one from my school

[ebon mulch]

and all the extra "tax"

[vale wing]

I have connections with the tech office

[agile stag]

buy a used build of some form off marketplace

[low sage]

theres no gpu sag here either is there fellas?

[tidal geyser]

entire setup for 160
#tech-chat-1 message

[agile stag]

touch up whatever it might need and run it proudly

[ebon mulch]

i dont need to spend £3000 on a PC that im gonna play games and do work on for 3 hours a day

[stable sigil]

can someone send like a blurry pic of an iphone box like you quickly snapped a picture of your new phone?

[onyx lake]

if you want to buy a brand new rx 580 for 140 dollars when you could likely get a 2080 super for that price go for it 😂

[low sage]

why on my old pc and mobo I had GPU sag, I had the asus b550-M mobo and a 5700xt

[gilded sparrow]

i got slight sag im still 3d printing a anti sag bracket

[ebon mulch]

are they not all 6+2?

[empty quartz]

@tidal geyser i sold my pc 🫡

[ebon mulch]

or are most of them 8 pin without a detachable 2

[low sage]

Does it look like I have any there or no? I dont think so but I like second opinions !

[tidal geyser]

yay

[ebon mulch]

how do u seperate the pins

[agile stag]

why do you need an anti sag bracket so bad

[ebon mulch]

do u have to break the connector

[true stirrup]

On any modern power supply the PCIe cables will be 6+2 pin yes

[tidal geyser]

what

[vale wing]

oh i have a main pc with way better specs im just building this pc out of passion for building/wanting a server

[true stirrup]

No the 2 pins just move to the side

[low sage]

nooo I dont want one, I just like second opinions mannn

[agile stag]

if youre holding a 4+4 pcie power youre holding a cpu power

the edge should break off easily enough

[ebon mulch]

oh so its 4+4?

[vale wing]

i got an rx 6600 paired with a r7 5700x

[low sage]

kaleem you are scaring me

[ebon mulch]

so it breaks in half

[vale wing]

solid combo

[true stirrup]

Not for GPUs

[agile stag]

if it doesnt break at all then you might be holding the other side of a modular power connector

[tidal geyser]

my main is 7800X3D and 7900 XTX with 1440p QD-OLED

i just rebuild computers

[ebon mulch]

why does this matter

[vale wing]

rich boy

[ebon mulch]

just whats a good cpu and gpu combo for 200

[tidal geyser]

nop just hard work

[low sage]

is the 7800x3d better than the 9800x3d?

[agile stag]

this server always disappoints me

[true stirrup]

It doesn't break it just detaches

[tidal geyser]

um

[low sage]

its not right

[tidal geyser]

bigger number better in this case

[agile stag]

for that price i ended up with uh a 5960x and a 670 but it also came with the rest of a computer

[low sage]

i have ben up since 5:30 AM, sorry king

[ebon mulch]

like a gtx 670?

[tidal geyser]

yes

[ebon mulch]

isnt that worse then the 1050 ti

[tidal geyser]

yes

[true stirrup]

Much worse

[ebon mulch]

then why would i get it

[agile stag]

yeah i ended up giving it away to a friend but the 5960x came in clutch hard though i run it with my 3060

[ebon mulch]

idk

[agile stag]

the parts it came with went crazy

[ebon mulch]

my friend told me to buy the ryzen 3 1300x because it was on some weird "platform" thing

[frosty prism]

5070 ti or 4080 S?

[agile stag]

you cant get it though i dont think its available to you

[ebon mulch]

i have no idea what he meant but i just trusted him

[tidal geyser]

what about amd?

[frosty prism]

if no amd

[ebon mulch]

and then i just watched him build the pc infront of me and i dint understand a word of what he ws saying or doing

[tidal geyser]

rx 9070 xt cmon you know you want to

[true stirrup]

I hope you didn't pay more than 10$ for that CPU

[low sage]

you should get amd instead of the 50 series

[agile stag]

people who bought it new SEETHING

[ebon mulch]

no it was like $100 or something

[frosty prism]

this is for a friend whos a fortnite kid, if i was in the us would've gotten a amd cpu and gpu

[ebon mulch]

i built my pc in like 2016

[frosty prism]

fuck intel and nvidia amd all the way

[hollow creek]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-dog-staring-at-sun-cute-dog-dog-closed-eyes-dog-staring-at-sunset-gif-10310895250239531072

[agile stag]

ok that goes then hell yeah

[low sage]

get 9070 xt for him

[ebon mulch]

rtx 9070?

[low sage]

can you not get AMD outside of the US?

[low sage]

APRIL FOOLS

[true stirrup]

Rx 9070

[low sage]

Kaleem is the greatest april fooler ever.

[tidal geyser]

uh amd can still be done

[ebon mulch]

gtx 970?

[low sage]

Kaleem what day is it?

[frosty prism]

js asking whats better a 5070 ti or a 4080 super ignoring price

[agile stag]

this server is an april fool to my sanity

[true stirrup]

Also exists yes

[frosty prism]

if it makes you feel better hes getting a r7 7800x3d

[agile stag]

have you checked benchmarks

[low sage]

4080 super

[ebon mulch]

is that some amd cpu

[agile stag]

also reasonably uh itll perform fine either way

[true stirrup]

Yes

[ebon mulch]

amd cpus suck. they are hot and probably dont have hyper threading

[low sage]

4080 super king

[agile stag]

i webfished against someone with a 4070 and we lagged the same amount

[ebon mulch]

amds "bulldozer" cpus get bulldozed by i3's

[tidal geyser]

what?

[agile stag]

chat petition to ban kaleem

[true stirrup]

Quite the opposite
Intel CPUs get hot as hell while AMD ones can be cooled by a cold breeze

[low sage]

Kaleem is a rage baiting troll

[tidal geyser]

o just april fools

[low sage]

the 14900kf that meltsss!!! (thats the one right?)

[tidal geyser]

intels latest and not great cpus do not have hyper threading anymore

[ebon mulch]

tye

amd sucks

[tidal geyser]

13th and 14th gen mostly K cpus

[ebon mulch]

only linux users use amd

[tidal geyser]

that is intel

[frosty prism]

no its intel

[nocturne vessel]

okay

[true stirrup]

14900kf is intel

[ebon mulch]

because they want to "stand up to monopolies" or some weird

[nocturne vessel]

so

[agile stag]

april fool chat do i replace ry701 i took it out and cleaned it and now my amp goes into protect mode help

[tidal geyser]

yolo

[true stirrup]

Mf AMD is dominating in CPUs
Intel messed up big time

[nocturne vessel]

i may have been a clown and not updated my drivers. that may have been why metro exodus was not running well..

[ebon mulch]

why did they remove their naming scheme

[untold scarab]

i know ive asked this before, but I can get a 7800x3d (kit including mobo and ram) and get an oled two weeks later, or a 7700x for 130 usd less and get an oled that same day, what do you guys think?

[ebon mulch]

what happened to "i3 i5 i7"

[true stirrup]

Yes it's Core ultra 285K now

[hollow creek]

gg chat

[tidal geyser]

u3 u5 u7 u9

[agile stag]

fuckk ok

[ebon mulch]

ultra

does that mean its the best cpu

like ultra fast

[true stirrup]

No it means it ultra sucks

[agile stag]

who would need any more power than what the 6950x has to offer

thats the real question

[ebon mulch]

one of my friends has some core ultra cpu

and he says its a great cpu

[hollow creek]

is he coping?

[ebon mulch]

and it gets like 400 fps in fortnite

[onyx lake]

what amd does not suck

[true stirrup]

That is GPU bound

[onyx lake]

ur trolling aren’t u

[tidal geyser]

a 7500f gets 500 with a 3060 ti

[onyx lake]

i think this guy is trolling rn

[tidal geyser]

and shit ram

[true stirrup]

Has to be tbh

[onyx lake]

i think he was serious then realized he doesn’t know much so he’s trolling now

[untold scarab]

sim is 130 extra worth for a 7800x3d?

[frosty oriole]

Bruh, these new Nvidia drivers are so bad.

[onyx lake]

ahh yes ultra simply means it’s the best

[tidal geyser]

what res

and what gpu was it

[hollow creek]

uses fortnite as benchmark > says friend uses intel core ultra > dailies some super old cpus and gpus = 1st april

[true stirrup]

I'm not going to update for a while

[untold scarab]

going to buy a 1440p oled, im on a 3080 but plan on getting a 9070xt

[tidal geyser]

o yeah its you go 7700x and a working computer

[onyx lake]

sell me ur 3080 for 250 dollars

[agile stag]

ill sell u my 3060 for 210

[hollow creek]

one should say um, you only life once, if you dont gamble it today, you might not win tomorrow

[untold scarab]

well no i mean ill have a working computer, ill just have a worst monitor for two weeks

[untold scarab]

i actually bought it from microcenter for near that price

[true stirrup]

Gambling?!?! 🤑

[low sage]

Sell me ur 3080 for a 150$

[agile stag]

i want to be free so bad but the alternative is staring at circuit diagrams and research,,

[onyx lake]

how lol

[untold scarab]

they sold it refurbished

[agile stag]

microcenter has them for like 350

[untold scarab]

it was like 290 though

[onyx lake]

usd? that’s awesome

[agile stag]

i dont know if id call that near 250

[hollow creek]

how i lost my savings to get 9800x3D visualised =

[tidal geyser]

o well if ya know ya have the money for it just go 7800X3D

[onyx lake]

still that’s good

[tidal geyser]

or 9800X3D

[low sage]

I got. 9800x3d mobo and ram for like 550 cuh

[agile stag]

chat is it worth uprading from my 5960x to a newer ryzen,,

[untold scarab]

like what im saying is, 7700x, with an oled on the same day, or, 7800x3d with a 1080p monitor for two weeks until i get the OLED

[frosty oriole]

Lol, yeah.
I used to run my display at 1440p120. But it stopped wanting to do that.

So, I switched to 1080p120. And that's been fine.

But today, I switched to 4K120 to test things out (and that was fine, no problem), but now it won't go back to 1080p120.

[agile stag]

go ask your local geeksquad employee

[tidal geyser]

then i would do 7800X3D

[untold scarab]

fourty bucks is nickles on the dollars when it comes to gpu's tbh

[hollow creek]

i'd say, good deal if i make conversion to my market
although i did saw a 9950x3D import for 525 dollar not including shipping
might just grab those

if they have a stock that is lol

[agile stag]

i need 40 off market price on a 1080ti,,,

[low sage]

i got it at microcenter, their bundles are amazing

[agile stag]

an msi gaming one with the red and black and the two fans

[untold scarab]

sell something old

[agile stag]

selling stuff is annoying but you have a point

[untold scarab]

yeah thats my plan, thinking of this bundle

[agile stag]

grr if only i had someone to buy my 35 laptops......

[untold scarab]

thats what I did to afford this

i sold a ton of old clothes and gear

[low sage]

this is how I got my cheap 7900xt too

[tidal geyser]

how much more is the 9800X3D one?

[low sage]

like 80$

[agile stag]

fair i used to resell shoes and then i moved to pc parts but now im just burnt out but i like getting rid of low end stuff and buying high end stuff

[untold scarab]

70

[low sage]

the 9800x3d is 650$

[agile stag]

hate low end,,

if my next motherboard isnt a godlike i wont be satisfied

[untold scarab]

yeah im getting a new bundle and than selling the old one to one of my friends

[agile stag]

also im just gonna seethe and order a new relay

[tidal geyser]

up to you but the 9800X3D for other tasks outside of gaming it can be nice but most of this is already overkill for most things so i would say 9800X3D or r7 7700X, i do not know about your economical situation but i might say 7700X now and OLED and then if ya really need more cpu performance or play rust or something then later on upgrade since its am5 as its meant to be upgraded

o well its over midnight now

[agile stag]

it looks pretty delicate and i touched it a lot and throwing in a new one is like a 10 minute job excluding disassembly so ill just run it

[hexed tapir]

People spend too much on mobos

[agile stag]

i was gonna spend like 150-200 ish range but ideally 100-150 is the dream range

but there was like one listed last time i checked so meh ill see

[hexed tapir]

Under $200 is perfectly fine imo

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/miau-cat-meow-gif-7549447283487850771

[untold scarab]

well im gonna be playing a ton of story games, and also some shooters like ow2 and siege also, the story games aspect is why im upgrading gpu's also

[hexed tapir]

But kids getting $400+ strix board are frustrating

[tidal geyser]

😐

[frosty oriole]

Bruh, why can't I do 1080p120 anymore? This is lame.

[agile stag]

mm the cheapest board i need is like 170 and its sold as for parts grrrr

[tidal geyser]

get warshipped

[hollow creek]

feels bad man

[tidal geyser]

uhm i would never do that

[agile stag]

next cheapest is 312 from china

[tidal geyser]

xd

[agile stag]

hate ebay,,

[tired bear]

and then putting a ryzen 5 in it

[hollow creek]

3 man, 3

[low sage]

omgg guys the rog strix with colors on it omgg 🔥

[tidal geyser]

i would never ever even think about doing it
(my pc part list https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MWTJmC)

[hexed tapir]

With a normal non oc/tuner ram

[agile stag]

dont actually buy steelseries peripherals

[tired bear]

single stick of it

[agile stag]

at least not their headphones

[tidal geyser]

what is wrong with their headphones

[agile stag]

at minimum stay away from those theyre like comically garbage

[tidal geyser]

what

[agile stag]

everyone i know whose bought expensive steelseries headphones has had them fall apart because the hinges are made of plastic

[hexed tapir]

Corsair aio you disappoint me

[agile stag]

and all the cheap pairs ive had have just sounded bad

[tidal geyser]

from my old build

[agile stag]

also running a 1tb ssd and then a 2tb wow

[hollow creek]

eh their things are okay, the software is eee

[tidal geyser]

skill issue

[agile stag]

likely overpriced asus psu too

[tidal geyser]

what is wrong with that?

[agile stag]

their headphones are not i can assure you of that

[low sage]

HEY i got a corsair AIO : (

[tidal geyser]

cheap headphones sound bad, no never

[agile stag]

might aswell commit to a 4tb i dunno its just weird

or stick with a 2tb

[tidal geyser]

eh??

[hollow creek]

i used 6 headsets from them in the past. only arctis 1 failed me because of battery

[agile stag]

or run an ssd/hdd

[tidal geyser]

wha

[hexed tapir]

It's just a rebranded asetek aio

[agile stag]

ive seen like at least 2 occurences of people uh having their headphones in pieces because theyre just poorly made

its like laptop hinges

[low sage]

i got the h100 rgb elite 240m a year ago for like 90$ so that was a good deal

[digital dragon]

question is it fsafe to buy 13gen now? i wanna know before i buy a i5 13400

[agile stag]

but less common

[hollow creek]

how are u guys using your headphones man lmao

you guys bend them when using or sum

[tidal geyser]

that was not even the cpu that could have issues

[tidal geyser]

ikr

[agile stag]

i dont know i abuse mine and theyve always held up but everyone i know who had their steelserieses seemed like they took good care of them

[tidal geyser]

i have had mine for 2+ years now

[agile stag]

ive sat on my headphones like multiple times and theyve always persevered but also the metal has some give to it so if i fuck them up i can generally bend them back into shape and keep going

[tidal geyser]

i am not careful and TORTURE it

[agile stag]

but plastic just gets fucked always

[low sage]

monster hunter wildlands a good game?

[digital dragon]

im just making sure becuase i though all 13gen an 14 gen had voltage issues

[tired bear]

i have dropped them sure but not sat on lmao

[untold scarab]

how does the 9070xt compare to the 4080?

[tidal geyser]

just update the bios and it will be fine but intel do some strange things like the 13400 is not really the same gen as a 13600k

[agile stag]

dropping is fine uh sitting on your headphones is always the real test

[hexed tapir]

If I recall right the 13400 wasn't affected

[tidal geyser]

about the same

[agile stag]

ive sat on my mezes twice and both times its felt catastrophic but they do good

[untold scarab]

okay cool

[tidal geyser]

since its not true 13th gen

[hexed tapir]

Yeah

[tidal geyser]

HOW

how do you manage to sit on them

[agile stag]

also im completely glancing over sound quality too because i dont even need to get that far to find issues with steelseries headphones

[tidal geyser]

do you just tape them to your ass or something

[agile stag]

well i sit without looking

my beyerdynamics also had that fate a few times and theyve also been fine

[tidal geyser]

have you tried not putting them on your chair

[tidal grove]

Corsair NAUTILUS 240 RS ARGB 240mm Liquid CPU Cooler

Thermalright Aqua Elite 360 V3 ARGB CPU Cooler

DeepCool LS720 SE Digital (black) 360mm ARGB Liquid CPU Cooler With Display

DeepCool LE720 (black) 360mm All-in-one ARGB Liquid CPU Cooler

Which one should i choose? all same price like 2-3$ difference not much (DP LS720 is 10$ more but idc)

overall see these and which one js better for ryzen 7 7700?

[hexed tapir]

Why set them on your fucking chair

[agile stag]

i like barely have any desk space

[tidal geyser]

use the cooler that comes with it

[tidal geyser]

make some

[tidal grove]

stock cooler is shit

[tidal geyser]

no

[tired bear]

do headphones teleport?
didnt think so

[tidal geyser]

i just hang my headphones on my monitor

[agile stag]

i do sometimes

[hexed tapir]

Ls

[tidal grove]

im using deepcool ag400 argb air cooler rn 16$

[clear canyon]

stock cooler is doodoo

[tidal grove]

ls is hard to find low stock

[hollow creek]

if i had to choose, the cheapest. a 7700 does not need any of this

[tidal geyser]

and its well under 95c i would imagine?

[tired bear]

they are either on my desk when not at pc or on my head

[tidal geyser]

88w cpu with a cooler that can do like 100-150w ez pz

[tidal grove]

65-70 mostly

[agile stag]

my evil crusty setup

[hexed tapir]

Then your oils on the pad get on the screen

[tidal geyser]

uh

[strange atlas]

I'm planning to get a wall mounted desk for putting monitors is it a bad idea?

[agile stag]

its a fight to find desk space

[tired bear]

touch the spicy

[tidal geyser]

yeah i mostly stopped doing it due to that so i put it on my desk if not its still a side monitor

[strange atlas]

under it i will have my normal desk

[agile stag]

a little,,,

[clear canyon]

stock cooler cannot do 100 to 150w lmao

[strange atlas]

Currently monitors are too low thats why i need it higher

[tidal grove]

?

[tidal geyser]

you do know that is REALLY like REALLY REALLY low

[agile stag]

also wall mounted desk is crazy

[strange atlas]

🚒

[tidal grove]

WHAT

[agile stag]

youre paying for the novelty

[hexed tapir]

Go free desk hunting

[agile stag]

also i would never stand on one

[tidal geyser]

wraith prism????????????

[tidal grove]

70° FOR A RYZEN 7 7700 IS LOW ???

[tidal geyser]

yes??

[agile stag]

maybe once im out of college

[strange atlas]

why would it break?

[agile stag]

because thats how the forces kinda work

[tidal geyser]

its april the 2nd

[tidal grove]

then how much is hot and how much is overheat ?

[strange atlas]

i wish that works in turkey

[tidal geyser]

its meant to be 95c

100c with low power draw is overheating for it

[strange atlas]

but like monitors are max 20 kg total shouldnt be a big deal for wall mount no?

[agile stag]

leverage or something idk im not good at physics but uh there just inevitably a point where itll break off the wall somewhat when theres a lotta force furthest from the wall

[hollow creek]

i used to play 7600x at 88 degree lol with an ak620
its normal to get to 95 even

[tidal geyser]

not normal its made to do 95c

[agile stag]

i dunno i could wallmount a desk with velcro or steel beams and theyll hold different weights it depends what whoever installed it says

[tidal geyser]

its meant to go all the way to 95c

[hollow creek]

eh my fan curve was quite...... loud

[hexed tapir]

Hit the red line

[ashen tangle]

Nah this is hella weird

[tidal geyser]

look at the insane amount of performance you lose with the prism

[hollow creek]

bro was just boosting 90-115watts with no pbo, my cpu isnt feeling throttle but my room was definitely getting hotter

[tidal grove]

Recommended budget gpu for ryzen 7 7700 32gb ddr5 650w gold psu ?

[tidal geyser]

5090

[tidal grove]

like as low as possible without bottlenecking and i dont want intel

[hexed tapir]

We all have a different definition of budget

[tidal geyser]

rx 6400

[agile stag]

fuckkkkk,,,,

[tidal grove]

Woah! Thats a budget gpu!..? Thanks bro very much brother pal mate! 😁😎

[tidal geyser]

no joke it is a budget gpu (for anyone doing anything AI)

[tidal grove]

4060,3060 12gb,7600xt which one??

[agile stag]

70$ gtx 1070

[tidal grove]

im gonna be playing AAA titles at 1080p 100hz ma'am 🙏

[tidal grove]

there ain't no used stuff here

only new stuff with warranty which is overpriced

a 4060 is 450$ here btw

i was gonna nail a wood to the wall like this

But i'm not sure if it would hold monitors

and would it effect my mouse area too much

[tired bear]

may i introduce you to monitor arm?

[strange atlas]

like will i have to raise it even mroe

[agile stag]

you might wanna uh think it through better

[strange atlas]

my desk would snap in half 😄

[tidal grove]

i js want to know which one of those 3 gpus is better for my pc ive already got the pc with igpu

[agile stag]

first off I think an arch shape would be better

[tidal geyser]

o its already built?

[agile stag]

like a square with the bottom cut out

[strange atlas]

may i ask what is that

[tidal grove]

yup

[agile stag]

no worrying about uh nailing things to a wall and itll support itself off the sides

[strange atlas]

this but how do i make a cut out of this

[agile stag]

wall mounting is a pain

[strange atlas]

ooh you mean supports

[tidal geyser]

is there a rx 6750 xt or rx 7700 xt there?

[agile stag]

do you need diagrams or something i can probably make some

[tidal grove]

7700xt is like almost 600$ here which i dont have and 6700xt is found rarely but also it costs 550$

[tidal geyser]

and here is where

[tidal grove]

Bangladesh

[agile stag]

nevermind actually i give up

[tidal geyser]

m dam well i cnat do much there

[tired bear]

bandsaw

[hexed tapir]

Jig saw $40

[tired bear]

or that

[tidal grove]

but only i can get w gpu within the range of "45,000 BDT"

can you help by checking this website for gpus within that budget?

Startech.com.bd

@tidal geyser

[hexed tapir]

Walmart has one for $22

[agile stag]

chat fuckk i bet you could jank some shit with just a hand saw

or pre cut wood even

[strange atlas]

something like this right?

[agile stag]

that would give you some support but you still have the issue of whats behind your paint

[empty quartz]

I need me a set of left handed nuts and bolts to confuse people

[agile stag]

is it brick or is it plaster or drywall and are there beams to anchor to and stuff

[strange atlas]

its cement and brick but its not too strong since when i punch it wall breaks

[orchid trellis]

Genuine question. Whats going on in china? Jumping 20% is insane.

[tidal geyser]

b580 it is https://www.startech.com.bd/gunnir-intel-arc-b580-index-12g-graphics-card

[empty quartz]

China has a big population

[agile stag]

this is mentally the idea

same shape less refinement

you can make it any size and its easy to make and add supports to

[orchid trellis]

I understand that but holy shit. To basically almost double is ridiculous.

[agile stag]

no wall anchoring so no issues even associated with that stuff

[tidal geyser]

@tidal grove

[empty quartz]

Nah, that monitor be too big, you need a 5.5cm display for ideal gaming

[strange atlas]

cant do that since my desk shakes a lot

[agile stag]

you should address that issue too then

[empty quartz]

Lttstore.com

[tidal geyser]

ok this is kinda funny

[agile stag]

if youre nail happy enough to nail a plank to your wall horizontally then you should make your desk not as shakey since supports are theoretically easy to add

[strange atlas]

i dont have much space doesnt makes sense to buy a desk for a small place like this

[tidal geyser]

watching trough this video and a 5800X3D beats out the 285k

well in hogwarts

[agile stag]

theyre probably even in webfishing

[empty quartz]

Wow, 2fps difference for the 14900k and 9800x3d. Careful, the amd shills are gonna come in and say the 9800x3d is infinitely better than the 14900k

[tidal geyser]

tbf this is at 4k

no upscaling

[frosty oriole]

Also, how much power does the 14900K draw and how much faster are the cores running?

[tidal geyser]

last part not sure what i can do there but the 14900k at least in general is about 150-200w

[hexed tapir]

But at what power draw hehehe

[empty quartz]

Look at the day today

[agile stag]

try and order a relay from not china(impossible challenge)

[halcyon lion]

Anybody able to run a dual GPU setup for VMs? I'm having issues doing so running two RX 7900 XTs where one is dedicated to my host and the other is for VMs. I have a x870e mobo. Running the VM gpu on thr PCIE_3 lane.

I first tried to update the GPU on the already previously running GPUs, it doesn't work (I was able to change the names on the registry to make the script be able to differentiate between both GPUs). I'm able to get it working, VM boots and under display adapter it shows up as the correct VM name (the changed one), but when I try to use Parsec with the VM, the host logs get errors- DXGI_ERROR_ACCESS_LOST and DUPLICATE: E_ACCESSDENIED

[frosty oriole]

Bruh, my overclocked 3950X barely uses 200W, lol.

[tidal geyser]

just make a server

[empty quartz]

What does it get in r23?

[tidal geyser]

a r7 7700 probs beats it

[halcyon lion]

Elaborate

[tidal geyser]

why bother with this whole scheme and not just make a dedicated server for the extra gpu

[tidal geyser]

since what it sounds like you are doing something not smart

[frosty oriole]

Ah, it spoilers because I downloaded an image that was already spoilered.

[empty quartz]

4000 points more than my 13500, while pulling more power

[agile stag]

chat we are folding fuckk i hope this arrives before i change addresses

[untold scarab]

i can also go for a 14700k for 500 instead

[tidal geyser]

do not do that

[hexed tapir]

Way too much if that's 500 usd

[tidal geyser]

i am just done with lga 1700 for the most part now

[untold scarab]

its a bundle not the chip alone

[halcyon lion]

I already have a truenas server running for other services. This is mainly for gaming for friends to use, they don't game as frequent, they have access to be able to turn on my PC whenever and parsec into their VMs. I just decided to add a 2nd GPU since I have more friends wanting to use what I got

[hexed tapir]

Ram and mobo?

[frosty oriole]

Higher-end CPU being faster while using more power isn't news. Also newer CPU being more efficient isn't news, either.

[tidal geyser]

why not setup steam headless on the truenas

well try to set it up

[empty quartz]

How much was your 3950x?

[untold scarab]

these are the main 3 im looking at, its either one of the higher end ones, and an oled a few weeks later, or the 7700x and an oled that same day

[tidal geyser]

aaaa yeah no running stuff in a vm for gaming is umm not great

at least the way you are doing it

[hexed tapir]

7800x3d all day if your mainly gaming

[tidal geyser]

anyways its almost 1am

[halcyon lion]

I'm also only running a Ryzen 5 3600 on the truenas server...my main PC has the Ryzen 9 9950x. I need that for editing 4k video, plus the extra cores for the VMs.

[hexed tapir]

Good night nerd

[tidal geyser]

why not core ultra

anyways i should stop asking questions and go sleep

[untold scarab]

so you think that the 7800x3d, oled 2-3 weeks later, rather than same day is worth it?

[halcyon lion]

It's been good so far...I'm just running into issues with getting the dual GPU setup running

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/kitty-good-night-rest-well-sweet-dreams-night-nite-gif-13173743430787512778

[hexed tapir]

Yeah

[untold scarab]

for 1440p gaming?

[hexed tapir]

Yup

[frosty oriole]

Idk, it was in CAD and during the Covid shortage, so a decent bit.

[empty quartz]

Fake, its 3:54pm

[empty quartz]

Im canadian

[untold scarab]

i think thats the move too ngl

[frosty oriole]

Hi Canadian, I'm Akimbo.

[frosty oriole]

Lol, it was close to MSRP I think.

[vale wing]

my last 24 hours of purchase:

-an ounce of shrooms
-a 5" bong
-1918-s walking liberty half dollar
-ryzen 5 1500
-500w power supply
-cooling fan

[solid osprey]

guys i got a surface with usbc output, and an anker dock that has hdmi but only one. i need to output 2 seperate signals to 2 monitors both with hdmi. what can i do?

[frosty oriole]

Yo, shrooms? Lesgo. I'm curious on trying them and just watching Windows screensavers for 5 hours.

[vale wing]

i was once so faded off of shrooms i talked to my toilet paper

[gleaming rose]

how was the conversation

[vale wing]

and thought a tear in the paint on the walld was a new language

[rigid fjord]

out of what material?

[frosty oriole]

Did you tactical reload it?

[vale wing]

very one way

[gleaming rose]

i could imagine so

[vale wing]

I took some last night

was absolutely tweaking

[gilded sparrow]

hello

[vale wing]

I recommend a nice thing of blankets and tv

[idle hound]

Hey

[hexed tapir]

Doesn't look like you need help it's already solid

[random gyro]

amazing purchases

[rigid fjord]

@vale wing@frosty oriole both of you

[gilded sparrow]

its in settings

[frosty oriole]

Ah, dang. Thanks for the reminder.

[frail topaz]

i have been troubleshooting a fucking galaxy a52 4g for 7 hours

[solid osprey]

how will settings spawn in another hdmi port?

[frail topaz]

no breaks

why wont this shit work holy crap

[gilded sparrow]

Jesus

[foggy ivy]

have you tried turning it on and off.

[frail topaz]

many many many times

[solid osprey]

mate ive got only 1 hdmi port but i need 2 of them what do i do

[foggy ivy]

well that usually works so. Theres smarter ppl here than me

[agile stag]

welp i did all i could to my beloved sony amp

time it put it in the corner till my chinese relays arrive

[gilded sparrow]

Built on

[bronze summit]

I hope I win

[agile stag]

grr once they do though all have 100wpc to launch ANYWHERE

[gilded sparrow]

daisy chain or get another dongle

[agile stag]

they sell them

i bet theyre pretty cheap too

[solid osprey]

u cant daisy chain hdmi

[solid osprey]

u can get ones that duplicate screen for cheap, but not extend

[gilded sparrow]

then another dongle

[agile stag]

no just like you can buy the ports

[solid osprey]

wdym

acc wait how much is usbc to hdmi cable

[agile stag]

see now youre thinking outside the hdmi box a little thats good

[rigid fjord]

if the surface can do hdmi-alt via usbc you could essentially use a usb C hub and 2 usb C to hdmi cables

[solid osprey]

this looks good

[agile stag]

those ones are pretty funny but sure run it itll probably work

[rigid fjord]

got to be able to do hdmi-alt via usb C for it though

[solid osprey]

wdym hdmi-alt

do u mean like support hdmi output over usbc?

cuz it does

[rigid fjord]

there is DP-alt via usb C, and then there's hdmi-alt via usb C, where a usb C port can alternatively be ablue to output either of these types from a usb C port, which not all devices can do, not all motherboards from a usb C port

[strange atlas]

wood

[solid osprey]

ohh ok

[rigid fjord]

yes, it's known also as hdmi-alt

[fierce forge]

I just looked at the new steam survey, do i need to downgrade to Win10 or stay on Win11? "I know i can search google but i keep getting posts from multiple years ago and they are all different opinions" 🙂

[twilit ledge]

what phone should i get for 1600 pln ($412.32)

that's my bank balance atm

[fierce forge]

do you have a OS preference?

[twilit ledge]

As long as it's not iphone

[fierce forge]

are you ok with second hand or brand new?

[twilit ledge]

brand new preferably

[rigid fjord]

archway would be easy to do for sure, though if you plan on doing a shelf i would advise doing the equivalent of either a floating shelf or standard shelf with brackets, if you did a floating shelf, then you might want to do it with some extra brackets as supports, otherwise you could quite easly use wall mount monitor arms instead for the monitors to be on

[twilit ledge]

my trust in humanity is non existent

[fierce forge]

any size preference? "Like I have big hands so i prefer bigger phones"

[twilit ledge]

Nah

I'm looking at the a36 atm

[vale wing]

https://tenor.com/view/not-cool-supernatural-dean-dont-like-it-gif-14639934

[steel umbra]

no

[fierce forge]

I would check this out https://www.ebay.com/itm/365488522449?_skw=samsung+s22+ultra&epid=26065011079&itmmeta=01JQSSWAYC0Z2V091ZNWTNMKED&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1fmL0D7289ww%2F3qlh4ZpMVigwv%2B7Q1O8ZZ49%2BscJHSpasAMoZOLdda1kE1X8F7fPpmDOyk%2BYke5LwxIeaT07pQeVdbVmUAI6MpWJzZdefKnsLZA%2FyNmJUw8VMxqvp6Jjf7anileEVFOgbeQ%2FMo0nzBWJZsEDCTF25u47lfh5BZouEGGLpDHgT1zQTVFu9uvLGGJeaPmLUxQC0YC%2BOpKocdmnCW0DoVjL77n%2Fo8ul63hNO%2BXpjrTBwBVbdVPF%2FtuxsDRazX4bubwNFR23ZvkiiOueBy0CPv8HZLHhqo7aedr8A%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6av8bm-ZQ&LH_ItemCondition=1000 "If you dont want ebay just lmk"

[rigid fjord]

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08B1QK2GJ something like this would be a good option @strange atlas

[strange atlas]

I dont trust this fully though like i said when i punch wall breaks apart

evven though its brick+cement wall

[empty quartz]

Smol phone

[twilit ledge]

ty I'll find from a diff seller because they dont ship to poland

[rigid fjord]

you'd have to have poorly made walls if you can do that tbh

[fierce forge]

ok, yea i use eBay for my phones because you can find good deals on some good phones, just make sure to use the filters as they help a lot

[rigid fjord]

<- has this kind of wall mount for a 17" monitor as well as part of making a floating desk over a bed

[twilit ledge]

I'll check on ceneo it's like polish ebay

[steel umbra]

when was your house made

[rigid fjord]

less age of making, it's more that he's from turkey if i remember correctly

[twilit ledge]

cheapest in my region after a bit of surfing is like 290 more PLN (63$) more so I'll just save that bit

[rigid fjord]

construction methods for their homes there might be more of the issue

[steel umbra]

lower standards yeah

[strange atlas]

around 40 to 60 years

[strange atlas]

most likely

its istanbul so wouldnt disagree

[rigid fjord]

prettly plastering over rotten walls

[twilit ledge]

Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 12 GB / 512 GB 5G inside of my budget @fierce forge as the price for the one u sent is a bit out of my budget because in poland it costs more

what do you think?

[fierce forge]

as long as your not in the US it looks like a solid choice, but i would suggest going with Samsung (For the Updates and Support options), if the S22 is out of you budget i would look at the S20 and S21. They all have a nice long support period and Samsung also has their fold line if you want a folding phone

[twilit ledge]

Ill look at it

[random gyro]

Just get a last gen s series

[azure topaz]

agreed

[random gyro]

A series isn’t great

[azure topaz]

not at all

it’s always seemed smarter to me to buy a phone older with better specs

[twilit ledge]

why does the s22 and s21 cost the same in poland

Tf

[random gyro]

S22 is ass

[twilit ledge]

whats the best phone for 1600 pln

[hollow creek]

oppo reno 13 is in this price range no? better ui too in comparison

[random gyro]

not sure, im not good with marketplaces over there

"hate them as a company" tf they do to u

what was wrong with it

[gleaming rose]

big fucking deal lmao
its an ipod

battery blew up

[random gyro]

battery u shouldve replaced it before it expanded like that

then buy a new phone
