[trim idol]

I mean in regards to not seeing people you went to school with

[fallow yacht]

wait no i think it's because i study on a private school

[trim idol]

That sounds like a bigger factor

[fallow yacht]

my classmates are genuinely nice; sure they'd probably joke about you as long as you know they're really joking

[thin plover]

that just sounds like friends

[tidal geyser]

i want to die

[thin plover]

just some friendly banter

[tidal geyser]

right now my classmates are screaming and just being assholes and cant fkn shut up

[trim idol]

Self deletion seems like a strong response to that

[dapper light]

I took vocational instead of regular high school so it's also different

Regular ones are genuinely soul draining

[tidal geyser]

not when it has been like this for a year

[fallow yacht]

they'd go with their cliques as usual but they do welcome new people when they do share what they have in common

[trim idol]

what kind of class is it that they can do that all year?

[tidal geyser]

electronics and computer

only like 2-3 people of a 30 person class even wanted to really go this

[fallow yacht]

what program specifically?

[dapper light]

Design and media

[fallow yacht]

oh multimedia arts and shit

[trim idol]

Is this high school? I thought you were in your 20s

[dapper light]

Includes making a website kek

[tidal geyser]

im 17

[dapper light]

Making physical products, etc

[tidal geyser]

its vg2

[fallow yacht]

we literally studied basic html and css in 9th grade

[dapper light]

But no JS

[fallow yacht]

same

[dapper light]

I mean i got JS

There's also some after effects

It was so fun

[trim idol]

I get the youths' ages mixed up all the time, lol

[sleek ibex]

[dapper light]

I then veered off to CS for college

Looking back I should've taken computer engineering since they deal with embedded shit

[fallow yacht]

i'm not good with hands here so i kinda dislike it

i just prefer typing random shit

[random gyro]

would i get a competitive advantage from a 1440p monitor compared to 1080p monitor with the same specs

[fallow yacht]

it mostly depends on the aspect ratio of the game

[sleek ibex]

Mostly most of the ECE majors I know usually end up as Software engineers anyway

[random gyro]

16:9, but for r6 16:10

[sleek ibex]

[fallow yacht]

stretched res is an advantage

[gloomy sleet]

stuff will be clearer?

otherwise not really

[random gyro]

ik that, i was asking between a 1440p monitor and 1080p one

[gloomy sleet]

it will just look better so it’s still worth it

[random gyro]

yeah thats fair

[gloomy sleet]

your getting 8 billion fps in r6 anyway so id get 1440p

[random gyro]

alr ill look into it

[fallow yacht]

oh

[random gyro]

my current monitor is a 1080p 180hz acer monitor

[fallow yacht]

1440p might affect perf but that's basically it

[gloomy sleet]

a gt710 will probably run that game at 4k max settings 60fps

[random gyro]

[fallow yacht]

besides most ppl use 1440p anyway

[random gyro]

my current monitor

[gloomy sleet]

i’d get a 1440p and use that as a second monitor

[random gyro]

plan was to sell this one and to use some spare money to get a new one

i dont really feel the use for a second monitor as welll

was looking to get this
https://www.centrecom.com.au/lg-ultragear-27-qhd-ips-200hz-g-sync-gaming-monitor?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwwLO_BhB2EiwAx2e-37XJtGqwLhsXmMZ6h_uoRleKrv8kS1J-pyV7rs11VePvdWi7WUoAXRoCKbAQAvD_BwE

i have a few options but not sure which to get

[lethal bay]

I found it easier to see enemies on 1440p vs 1080p

1080p is borderline unusable for me nowadays

even on side monitors lmfao

[plush wren]

vision issue

[gleaming timber]

is this a good deal?

[tidal geyser]

up to you

[gleaming timber]

idk if $460 is a good price for a 7700XT that’s why i’m asking idk where the market for these are at

[tidal geyser]

are you willing to wait

[gloomy sleet]

real

for certain games 1440p165hz is more of an advantage over 1080p240hz

[vale wing]

sim how are you still awake

[random gyro]

in what games

[gleaming timber]

well i have until the 23rd to return the b580 so not really

[lethal bay]

all of em

[random gyro]

do u play compettive games like r6 or val

[tidal geyser]

what is wrong with the b580

[gloomy sleet]

i did

[tidal geyser]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1222666666308010124/1346629332327727167/attachment.gif

[gloomy sleet]

makes a minimal difference

[lethal bay]

Yeah

[tidal geyser]

i wish i was not

[random gyro]

and u found 1440p better? like good enough to sell my current and buy a new one

[gloomy sleet]

99% of the time you aren’t even good enough at games for the resolution to matter

[gleaming timber]

nothing, but i spent $350 for it and for another $100 i could get better 1440p performance on the 7700xt

[tidal geyser]

350$??

[gloomy sleet]

not really but the fact it looks so much better is a reason

[tidal geyser]

its meant to be 250

[gleaming timber]

that’s why i’m saying i’m gonna return it lol

[random gyro]

alr, which one do you use?

[gleaming timber]

and buy something closer to msrp

[gloomy sleet]

1440p

[gleaming timber]

but idk what msrp is on 7700xt

[random gyro]

what model

[tidal geyser]

it costs 40% more then its meant to

[gloomy sleet]

looks so much better and isn’t much of a performance difference

[gloomy sleet]

25e3q

[random gyro]

oh the tiktok one

[gloomy sleet]

even on my 4060 i still get 170fps in every game i play

[gloomy sleet]

the tiktok one?

[random gyro]

it went viral for how cheap it was

[random gyro]

i also have a 4060

[gloomy sleet]

yeah it was like £140 when i got it

[random gyro]

thats good

[gleaming timber]

so… is $460 reasonable for a 7700XT?

brand new

[lethal bay]

you guys would shit yourselves if you knew what I spent on a display a couple weeks ago lmao

[gloomy sleet]

your probably thinking of the 24e3 which was £80 at one point

[random gyro]

yes i think it was

[gloomy sleet]

i knew a guy who spent £1000 on a 4k240hz oled and then the next day bought a 65” 8k tv for £1200

[gloomy sleet]

there’s not a single review of it online

[tidal geyser]

tbh i would not even think about it over 400 and 350 is where i would want it or lower

[lethal bay]

I bought a 42” LG C4

4K 144Hz OLED

[gloomy sleet]

damn how much

[lethal bay]

Like $950 lmao

[random gyro]

1220 australian bro how rich areyou

[gloomy sleet]

[lethal bay]

I’m not rich by any means I just make poor financial decisions

[sleek ibex]

https://tenor.com/view/sweats-gif-25346666

[random gyro]

you should ask an expert

[gloomy sleet]

here’s the cheapest 1440p 120hz+ ips monitors

[gleaming timber]

is this also a bad deal

[tidal geyser]

price of the 9070 xt msrp

[random gyro]

whats the best like i cant tell the difference between them

[lethal bay]

This is more than some of the 27” 1440p 240Hz monitors you can get in the US

[random gyro]

australia prices are bad

[gloomy sleet]

they use monopoly money over there those are like $150~ us

[sleek ibex]

I'd rather not go into how much I spend on mine

[lethal bay]

27” 1440p 240hz IPS is straight up like $200 in the US

[gloomy sleet]

i’d go for the cooler master one

[random gyro]

why

[gleaming rose]

?

[gloomy sleet]

it’s 180hz compared to the asus one which is 170hz and the same price

[lethal bay]

Realistically tho ngl 99.99% of people do not need over 144-165hz

[gloomy sleet]

a bag expert?

[gleaming timber]

i just uninstalled and reinstalled a game on steam and i still have all the modded bs i didn’t want anymore???

[gloomy sleet]

real

[tidal geyser]

so uninstall the mods??

[gloomy sleet]

past 240hz i physically can’t see a difference

[random gyro]

oh ok

[gleaming timber]

i literally did

[gloomy sleet]

even using a 500hz monitor at an expo

[tidal geyser]

so you deleted the mods directory

well folder

[gleaming timber]

the entire directory was gone

[pseudo linden]

What are these cables for? Or can i use everything without these

[tidal geyser]

did you uninstall with steam or delete the entire game folder

[gleaming timber]

steam

[gloomy sleet]

that’s like $350 aus

[tidal geyser]

those are for your fans

[tidal geyser]

so you did not

[gleaming timber]

i uninstalled through steam and deleted leftover folder

[pseudo linden]

I have no idea where to plug

[gloomy sleet]

australian dollar

[tidal geyser]

and they are not steam workshop?

[gleaming timber]

no

[tidal geyser]

what are you even doing and why

[tidal geyser]

what mod manager

[gleaming timber]

no mm just drag and drop

[pseudo linden]

Building a pc

[tidal geyser]

delete the mods inside of the folder you put them in?

[gleaming timber]

i just said i did that lmfao

[tidal geyser]

skill issue then

[pseudo linden]

I got 4 fans, i put the power/hdd led +- and power/reset switch in but now those cables that i sent are left over

[sonic canopy]

can someone recommend me a good m atx mobo? https://it.pcpartpicker.com/list/cgRjLc

[tidal geyser]

why not am5?

[true stirrup]

Literally any with an okay VRM heatsink
Also why 14700F?

[tidal geyser]

it will work

[sonic canopy]

i need both workstation and gaming capabilities

and im NOT paying 800 euros for a 9950x3d

[tidal geyser]

so do not do that??

[tidal geyser]

what do you do

[sonic canopy]

thats mypoiny

[tidal geyser]

get a r5 7600

[sonic canopy]

i do game dev, i 3d model (i use maya) and i video edit

[tidal geyser]

eh?? so you video edit but plan to get a F intel cpu????

[sonic canopy]

i dont need overclocking

[tidal geyser]

cool?

[sonic canopy]

f is just no gpu and i dont care about uicksync

[tidal geyser]

but you would way rather have quick sync i would imagine

[sonic canopy]

quicksync

[tidal geyser]

you do know what it is

[sonic canopy]

ya

[tidal geyser]

ok so what is it

[sonic canopy]

dedicated video encodning

on intel cpus

[true stirrup]

And you will be doing video editing

[tidal geyser]

no why does intel have it

[sonic canopy]

wdym why does intel have it

[tidal geyser]

quick sync allows for way better timeline scrubs

[sonic canopy]

yeah? and?

it s dedicated video encoding

[gleaming rose]

uhhhh

[tidal geyser]

uhm

better timeline scrubs

[sonic canopy]

ok

[tidal geyser]

you can have a 5090 but if most of your day is video editing you would way way rather have quick sync

[true stirrup]

Expensive

[sonic canopy]

i dont spend msot of my day editing

[gleaming rose]

worth it

[thorny saddle]

Or hyper encode with quicksync on CPU AND Intel discrete GPU

[gleaming rose]

its ip55 and very high quality materials

also family owned company

[true stirrup]

Sounds good

[inland perch]

sounds good

[cunning escarp]

yo i have an igpu and a dedicated gpu on my laptop i wanna make the dedicated gpu run EVERYTHING how do i do that (its AMD)

[tidal geyser]

do you do more gaming or game making and editing?

[tidal geyser]

6 or 12

[glossy veldt]

6

[sonic canopy]

balance

50/50

[tidal geyser]

dam

[glossy veldt]

the joke is i need to convert mini dp to vga

[tidal geyser]

yea

[slate gale]

what do I even do with this

[glossy veldt]

if i need to order one it'll take a week

[slate gale]

I already have a new board

[glossy veldt]

locally i found someone selling a displayport to vga, but not mini displayport

[tidal geyser]

you now have a NAS

[glossy veldt]

seller says it will not work unless i 100% use a mini displayport to vga adapter

it still bugs me if mini dp and dp are essentially the same, no? why wouldn't it work?

[tidal geyser]

i dono

skill issue i guess

[glossy veldt]

im gonna take my card to a tech store nearby and tell them to test the dp to vga adapter

if it truly doesn't work

i could have obviously put the card in my comptuer and used the integrated gpu, if i had an igpu and not an F series cpu

[slate gale]

i mean mini dp to vga exists

[glossy veldt]

it does

[slate gale]

so why not just get it

[glossy veldt]

but it takes a week to arrive

[slate gale]

patience

also wow unfortunate

i can literally walk to a place where i can get those

[glossy veldt]

unfortunate is having a gt 730 since 2021

supposedly the card was to arrive mid of april

it arrived yesterday (way too early)

[slate gale]

when did you order it

[glossy veldt]

let me check

i ordered it the 25th or 24th of last month

[slate gale]

just saying, you could have ordered the mini dp to vga adapter at the same time

[glossy veldt]

it arrived in 4 business days

well a week

[glossy veldt]

i should have

but if, let's say

[slate gale]

wait can you reiterate

[glossy veldt]

oh

[slate gale]

you won’t be able to plug the dp to vga cable into your gpu anyway

[glossy veldt]

the rtx a2000 comes with 4 mini Displayport outputs

[slate gale]

so why fuss about it

exactly, so how would you use the regular dp to vga adapter

[glossy veldt]

it comes in the box with the adapters for mini dp to dp

[slate gale]

i see

[glossy veldt]

my monitor is of the era of the fog

[slate gale]

no this is what i wanted to know

[plush wren]

oh wow i need vga to dp

[slate gale]

i get having an old monitor

[glossy veldt]

the seller says you must use a mini dp to vga

and that you cannot use the mini dp to dp --> dp to vga combo

[tidal geyser]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/859423676457287730/1286737790322868365/2x-1.gif

[slate gale]

i mean it should work

[glossy veldt]

i could not wait a week by getting a local dp to vga or wait a week and get a mini dp to vga

[plush wren]

gang loves this gif

[slate gale]

it really should have no reason to not work since minidp to dp is literally just

[glossy veldt]

a smaller dp

[slate gale]

extending the original connection

there should be no conversion happening inside the adapter cause they’re the same

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/adult-swim-this-is-fine-casual-flames-life-gif-5794951

[plush wren]

[glossy veldt]

[tidal geyser]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1222666666308010124/1346629332327727167/attachment.gif

[slate gale]

it can’t be that expensive

[glossy veldt]

10 bucks

[slate gale]

ok that’s kinda expensive

[glossy veldt]

i would be paying upwards of 20 if i ordered it online though

due to shipping

[gleaming rose]

me af

[slate gale]

potential 10 dollars wasted or guaranteed 20 dollars well spent + 1 week

[glossy veldt]

not really cause if i take it to the store, and they try it and it doesn't work i won't buy it

i think an a2000 for 280 is an okay price

even if it was the 6 gb model

[gleaming rose]

why the FUCK did i just pay that much for a camera bag

aaaaa

[glossy veldt]

how much could a camera bag be

[gleaming rose]

$170...

[glossy veldt]

i mean

for a professional grade camera

that would be understandable

[hallow jasper]

Isn't a thing.

i dont know of a motherboard that doesn't have enough vrms for the processors its designed to handle

about one dodacellion

or what comes standard with most motherboards

[odd marsh]

You’re fine dw about it

[hallow jasper]

[glossy veldt]

i would say a good quality PCIe slot

but most modern motherboards already have good qualtiy PCIe slots

quality

ehhh lets see

[untold dragon]

usb,pcie port count
Ethernet conectivity

[hallow jasper]

How does one tell a good quality one from a low quality one?

[glossy veldt]

literally that

all pcie slots designed to handle a gpu are like these

Are the fans connected to motherboard headers? If so, FanControl (if you like a challenge). The BIOS if you want easy.

the older ones were usb a's until new gen where they also have type c's

[elder quarry]

Thanks

[tidal geyser]

A yes ii and then 3

[glossy veldt]

lets be honest who doesnt know men in black II exists

[glossy veldt]

i think i would benefit more from a 1x pcie usb hub

either way

[sullen obsidian]

I have it on VHS lol, its currently a monitor stand

[glossy veldt]

i just connect my phone, speakers, KB and mouse

and thats all usb slots populated

my front io is broken due to little brother running around while i had my usb headphones plugged into them

[hollow creek]

i believe that would be better choice. the amount of cable management i had to do just to make those hub looks nice is biblical

[glossy veldt]

that's lowkey a flex

[glossy veldt]

correct me if i'm wrong but does that predate digital

[gleaming rose]

yes

[delicate zodiac]

Is dust protecting front panel worth it on montech air 100 when you have -100 rpm, 3x bigger airflow and less noise without it?

[solar moat]

digital is old AF

[glossy veldt]

i see

this is what i recorded with my camera

i hope audio isnt broken

[glossy veldt]

b580 next

being serious about it though

the b580 is supposed to be cheaper than the 3060 by like a hundred dola

they have about the same performance

[dry stump]

Hey folks, im looking for an HDD to put in a NAS with a RAID1 (direct clone) setup. I'm looking for 8-12TB good performance but not overly expensive. Any thoughts?

also looking for a NAS overall, 2 (or more) bay, with ssd slot, raid1 support. including drives id like to stick under 1300eur

[glossy veldt]

i would say not to go seagate but beyond that i have no idea

maybe their professional lineup of drives are better than the consumer ones

so far they've been crap for me at least

[odd marsh]

I’d recommend checking out serverpartdeals, idk what the European shipping policy is, but LTT trusts the drives

[dry stump]

toshiba pro looks great but its really expensive, like 250 per drive

[glossy veldt]

are WD drives cheaper?

[dry stump]

i'm not concerned about buying advice, just what parts make sense to buy. it's for commercial backup use of a small business

[vale wing]

my ryzen 5 1400 is coming soon....

hooray.......

[glossy veldt]

you've really got me bad there

[dry stump]

per TB about the same, but their 8TB black lineup looks good for around 180 per drive

[dry stump]

all good, it happens.

[pseudo linden]

Im trying to install windows but get this thing

[glossy veldt]

[glossy veldt]

https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze-drive-stats-for-2024/

this is the drive stats for 2024

[dry stump]

looks like toshiba drives are a good pick

[dry stump]

is WDC the same people that make WD (color) drives?

[glossy veldt]

yes that'd be western digital corp

[dry stump]

ah, thanks

[glossy veldt]

i've had a WD blue 1 tb for around 5 to 6 years now

[dry stump]

great that WD blacks are cheap and reliable

[glossy veldt]

wait no, even longer

since 2017

[dry stump]

only about 22usd per TB

[glossy veldt]

on contrast the seagate 1tb that came with my lil bro's prebuilt failed prematurely, like less than 6 months

and another seagate my uncle bought also failed in such manner, but since i'm from latin america it might be issues with regional manufacturing

[dry stump]

Do you also happen to know about NAS systems themselves? i dont require software help, but in hardware i could use some.

[glossy veldt]

sorry, that's where i'm not educated on

[dry stump]

unlucky, i have used a barracuda for years and a friend of mine has too and they never showed any issue.

[glossy veldt]

it's as i might expect it be down to regional manufacturing being different

[dry stump]

could very well be, i assume you are american?

[glossy veldt]

latin american

specifically argentina

i forgot i had unplugged my hard drive so i can't show crystaldiskinfo rn

but it's been a boot drive from 2017 to 2021 then used for storing data ever since

[glossy veldt]

i see that's a cpu with similar performance to my i3 10th gen

[gleaming rose]

i shoot film

[glossy veldt]

you can run a 3060 no issue with that

[glossy veldt]

i know, but just the camera quality

[gleaming rose]

digital is for losers 🔥

[glossy veldt]

and i wanted to show off my motorcycle, lol

[gleaming rose]

what?

oh

[glossy veldt]

whereas film has much better quality

[glossy veldt]

digital is not only cheap but also easy to utilize which i take is what led to it's worldwide diffunction

[gleaming rose]

o i am super proud of this shot

discord butchers it but it's still a good photo

[glossy veldt]

in kodak's case they stuck with film and ended in bankrupcy due to the boom of digital cameras

[gleaming rose]

yea, iirc kodak invented the digital cam too

[glossy veldt]

at the end of the day a good photo isn't defined by quality

[glossy veldt]

this meower looks splendid with the blur on the background and the slight green hue

[kindred drift]

This will work with my motherboard right?

[glossy veldt]

would 100% be a good wallpaper

[gleaming rose]

i think film has very good quality at the cost of about $0.3-5/shot, even though i develop and scan myself

[glossy veldt]

yeah the issue is the cost, but i guess that makes you value each shot more

[gleaming rose]

i have it in tiff format so i could make it into one

[glossy veldt]

i'm interested in using it as my wallpaper

[gleaming rose]

yeah 100%, i take a lot less shots than i would on digital

[glossy veldt]

not that quality matters when i have a 900p one, lol

[little fossil]

my dad just got fiber put in his house but his wifi speeds didn't improve much. i personally think it's the disgusting shitbox he has as router, but i have no way to empirically prove this

[gleaming rose]

every shot i either line up perfectly or don't take

[gleaming rose]

try ethernet or get very close to the router

[glossy veldt]

so let's break down M.2s

they are a format which used primarely either sata, pcie, or both

[gleaming rose]

developing film yourself makes it even more worth the money, because it's so fun, + developing and scanning yourself is so much cheaper

[little fossil]

heh, we're both apple users and NOBODY has a mobile device with an ethernet port

[glossy veldt]

most new motherboards support both types of m.2s

[little fossil]

actually fml

[gleaming rose]

apple moment

[glossy veldt]

your mobo is the ab350m-hdv

[little fossil]

https://tenor.com/view/get-this-man-a-true-get-this-woman-a-true-get-this-man-a-sheild-morgan-freeman-gif-10371628197507306124

[glossy veldt]

what you do is go to the manufacturer and check for which m.2 port* you have

[gleaming rose]

every now and then my bathroom looks like this

[white sphinx]

Is the router provided by your isp?

[glossy veldt]

@kindred drift you have gen3x4 m.2

[strange atlas]

Would you guys get a normal stereo headphones or 7.1 virtual sound headphones for the same price

[glossy veldt]

it will work but it'll be slightly slower due to gen3 rather than gen4

[gleaming rose]

7.1 headphones is a marketing scam

[kindred drift]

Okay

[gleaming rose]

what are the options for you?

[kindred drift]

Continue

[strange atlas]

Havit H2002P7Hz or Salnotes Zero IEM

[glossy veldt]

fiber, dsl, starlink, it's not the protocol that matters but the MBPS the ISP sends

[glossy veldt]

@kindred drift

[glossy veldt]

i would prefer headphones with those floating headbands

as to not ruin my beautiful hair

[strange atlas]

these?

[glossy veldt]

yeahhh

[gleaming rose]

there's like a $40 price difference between the two, why not get some truthear reds?

[strange atlas]

too much money

[glossy veldt]

i guess so

[little fossil]

no it's a disgusting fritzbox, router from a german company

[gleaming rose]

I'm a sucker for IEMs btw

[strange atlas]

both of them costs same in turkey but if i get the iem you cant even refund it

[glossy veldt]

me myself and i got some cheap ones for less than 3 bucks so i can't say anything about sound quality

[strange atlas]

sucker?

[gleaming rose]

get the IEMs

[gleaming rose]

another way to say i love IEMs

[little fossil]

i mean i STRONGLY doubt any ISP wants to pay for fiber and then only have 40 mbps sent through it

[kindred drift]

I sent you a dm

[little fossil]

like that's not even maxing out copper speed

[glossy veldt]

i'll reply shortly

[kindred drift]

Ty

[strange atlas]

i'm sick off hearing deep sound even when nothing is playing from headphones

[strange atlas]

gotcha

[glossy veldt]

mhm, but even then if you get fiber and it's the same upload and download speed that might be the issue

[gleaming rose]

@strange atlas get the salnotes

[glossy veldt]

i heard germany right?

[strange atlas]

The no refund thing makes me a bit sceptical

[glossy veldt]

are houses there made of pure brick?

signal quality degrades when passing through those too

[strange atlas]

in turkey its also pure brick with cement

[glossy veldt]

same in argentina

usa is the only place where they use paper for their walls

[strange atlas]

i have seen that that is really weird

When i punch it even these walls breaks i wonder what would happen in there

[tidal geyser]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/859423676457287730/1286737790322868365/2x-1.gif

[hallow jasper]

This is incorrect. For one, its not just paper on making up your wall, its drywall or gypsum board that has a paper liner. Additionally, if you look into it for more than 3 seconds you'd find its used in a number of other countries though very popular in North America.

[gloomy sleet]

you dont have an attic to develop it

[latent gull]

https://tenor.com/view/add-to-favourites-gif-17225530979352025795

[gloomy sleet]

in australia they do

at the very least

[hallow jasper]

new zealand, argentina. drywall isn't some america only thing

[gloomy sleet]

wouldnt be suprised if tehy did in a lot of other countries

[gloomy sleet]

i saw a new build here (UK) with a "paper" house

[hallow jasper]

Its also used for interior buildouts. The house can still have a brick/stone exterior construction.

[glossy veldt]

well thanks for correcting me

my house is a prebuilt 10x50 meter plot

walls are about uhhid say between 7 to 10 cm thick

i believe it was built around the 2010's

my grandma's house has been standing strong for over 50 years

for there to grow a mango tree from a seed and it to become really really tall it's a lot of time

walls are obscenely thick

i'd say 20 cm thick

and i used the word paper as a way to refer to the low durability the drywall has

it's plaster and it will break if you punch it

[sonic canopy]

car

[glossy veldt]

such a distinguished gentleman right

[sonic canopy]

distinguished car

[sonic canopy]

idc ill take my european solid brick walls thick 20cm

translate it urself in inches

[fickle ivy]

i had this weird ass dream where a cable called HDMI DVI existed and it was a dual hdmi and dp cable

[pseudo swallow]

I need help

[glossy veldt]

guess what

there's a port that accepts both hdmi and dp

[pseudo swallow]

So. A friend gave me a 2015 hp laptop. I took it apart without a guide. Completely striped it. In the end, everything worked but the touchscreen. I switched it to Linux, and took the WiFi card out, and now it doesn't boot properly. Any ideas?

[glossy veldt]

did you unplug the battery first

[gloomy sleet]

does it say anything on the screen

if so record a video of you turning it on and it going through the boot cycle thingy

[pseudo swallow]

Yes.

[pseudo swallow]

It goes to the login screen and then crashes

[gloomy sleet]

record a video of that

just so we can see whats actually happening

[pseudo swallow]

I would, but it's kinda in pieces rn.

The mother board is out

And I haven't gotten a chance to buy a new charger

[gloomy sleet]

7.8 inches

[empty quartz]

Baseball huh

[pseudo swallow]

Or time to build it back

[gloomy sleet]

my guess is its not getting power for long enough to stay on

battery is probably dead

[gloomy sleet]

?

[flat flame]

guys can yall send a application name for drivers uninstall

[gloomy sleet]

wtf

[tidal geyser]

what

[gloomy sleet]

only 4m

[flat flame]

i had dowloaded drivers for amd igpu

nowi bought nvidia gpu

[pseudo swallow]

Probably. Should I just get a new laptop? It was given to me to mess with and learn. I think if I put it back together and switch it from a hard drive to a SSD it should work again. I think it just needs a fresh os

[empty quartz]

Why are you surprised?

[flat flame]

i need to uninstall drivers

[tidal geyser]

no

[flat flame]

rly?

what i have to do then

[tidal geyser]

nothing

[empty quartz]

@gloomy sleet its an optical cables, of course its expensive

[sonic canopy]

whats a good lga 1700 m atx mobo? under 150 euro, also whats a good case that can fit into 29 cm width and 31 cm lenght

[tidal geyser]

tbh i would rather do amd

and yes i still remeber

[empty quartz]

Not everyone is a gamer

[pseudo swallow]

I can't wait to see a thunderbolt 5 SSD. And it's price

[sonic canopy]

nah

[tidal geyser]

everybody do like not having to replace most parts once they need to upgrade and or risk parts being dead

[flat flame]

if i change gpu manufacturer i have to uninstall old drivers?

[sonic canopy]

this ☝️

[tidal geyser]

thunderbolt 5 SSD?

[empty quartz]

Those issues have long since been fixed

[sonic canopy]

vro get with the times 🥀

[tidal geyser]

how in the fuck do you fix silicon degredation

[empty quartz]

Happens to every cpu

[pseudo swallow]

I found a $350 thunderbolt 4 one on Amazon.

[sonic canopy]

by fixing the issue that WASNT that

it was mobos letitng the cpus eat too much pwr

[tidal geyser]

what

[tidal geyser]

no

[sonic canopy]

silicon degradation is present in everything (like how steel rusts)

[sonic canopy]

https://tenor.com/view/wind-uhhh-gif-24762680

[tidal geyser]

ffs

[true stirrup]

That was one of the issues
One was oxidation in some batches which is unfixable

[empty quartz]

The mobo’s were pushing too much voltage causing sillycon degredation

[tidal geyser]

and the new bios managed to repair that?

[empty quartz]

And microcode

[sonic canopy]

you know, a mobos bios TELLS IT WHAT TO DO

[tidal geyser]

it reparied silicon degredation

[sonic canopy]

so chaning the bios makes it not overvolt

[empty quartz]

@azure topaz

[tidal geyser]

no it does not

[sonic canopy]

no one said that

[empty quartz]

Of course not

[true stirrup]

The microcode does

[sonic canopy]

vro 🙏

[tidal geyser]

vro?

[sonic canopy]

he didnt say "repair affected cpus" it said "repair the issue"

[empty quartz]

It was a wrong reply

[sonic canopy]

silicon degradation cant me undone

[sonic canopy]

mb gng 💔

[tidal geyser]

issue is if you want to upgrade in a year or two there will be no more new unit mening you need to go used and used you cannot trust

since the cpu might be degraded

[sonic canopy]

who needs to upgrade in a year or two with almost new cpus

[sonic canopy]

well if you buy them now theres no issue

[true stirrup]

Still some 13th/14th gen CPUs are risky because they could come from the oxidation batch

[sonic canopy]

i hope the 14700f im gonna get isnt oxidated

[tidal geyser]

at least do the non f then

[sonic canopy]

for the quicksync?

ig

[tidal geyser]

if you know why do you still say you are going for the f

[empty quartz]

Its been long since fixed

[true stirrup]

Oxidation is unfixable
The batches with it are just bad

[tidal geyser]

"with the latest bios and a brand new cpu that has not used a old bios

[sonic canopy]

vid editing isnt my main thing

[empty quartz]

I dont mean the affected cpu’s

[tidal geyser]

aint it like 20$ more for a non f

[sonic canopy]

im not smart but if you use a cpu with a new mobo with a new bios, then the cpu will go w the new bios

[tidal geyser]

wa

[true stirrup]

Every oxidation batch CPU is affected even if it's never been inside a pc

[empty quartz]

Im aware

[sonic canopy]

yeah i switched getting a 14700

[tidal geyser]

uhm well a new boards tend to have the latest bios

well at least a more modern bios

[true stirrup]

According to Intel there aren't a lot of them tho
(But can't really trust what they say)

[empty quartz]

Can you really trust any large company?

Fuck it, reject companies, return to sticks and stones

[true stirrup]

Real

[empty quartz]

Fun fact: amd wouldnt exist without intel

[gloomy sleet]

true

[dusty dew]

ugh I hate apple usb bootloaders, too much pain formatting the drives to be used as normal usb again

my friend did that to the usb

[empty quartz]

Its not even that hard to do

[dusty dew]

its not hard, but its annoying

[empty quartz]

What makes it annoying

[dusty dew]

5 minutes++ to reformat the whole thing

[empty quartz]

No

[dusty dew]

seriously

[empty quartz]

Thats just a slow usb

[dusty dew]

ah also that

but yeah I succeeded in my operation with a dell laptop of a neighbor

throwing away the failing clunker of a hard drive

and replacing with a lexar SSD

then also repasting the cpu and igpu with fresh kryonaut

[gleaming rose]

you load the film in the basement and then you can develop it in light

[dusty dew]

I am liking the new 16gb stick though @empty quartz was thinking if I should reopen my laptop and slap the same kryonaut

[empty quartz]

Ptm7950

[dusty dew]

or that

[tidal geyser]

do you want to replace your thermal paste every 3 months

[tidal geyser]

i feel like i have already said this

[empty quartz]

Nuh uh

[dusty dew]

nah, nvm ill get money first

for PTM

for that kryo ill prolly use it for others

[tidal geyser]

LETS GOO i am not going insane

[dusty dew]

I used the thing on a i5 8350u(thats the laptop I repaired)

[tidal geyser]

well for the most part

[dusty dew]

well there is one on noon, but will be like going from KOREA to here

[true stirrup]

PTM7950 is ~10€/£/$ on AliExpress

[dusty dew]

or Japan I think

[empty quartz]

@tidal geyser its high noon

[dusty dew]

the PTM is available at 3 times the price locally

[tidal geyser]

that is why i said thermalright helios

[dusty dew]

for ali idk if they deliver in the middle of the desert

for noon though, yes they do

[steel umbra]

most of it isn’t legitimate tho, have to be specific about the seller

[tidal geyser]

even the fake stuff is still PCM

[steel umbra]

not all of pcm is good

some of it is just worse than a good paste

[dusty dew]

@tidal geyser ill need that PTM since my laptop is.... hitting 94 at full power

with stock paste

[true stirrup]

Middle999 and Passionate Girl Store

[dusty dew]

unlocked the power limits recently

[tidal geyser]

what were the specs again

[dusty dew]

Ryzen 9 7940HS

on a Asus Vivobook 16

[tidal geyser]

what is the power draw

[dusty dew]

50ish+ watts

it hit 5.2

[empty quartz]

@steel umbra welcome back

[steel umbra]

middle999 appears to sell non legitimate ptm7950

[steel umbra]

it’s april 2nd too late

if you’re not looking for legitimate ptm7950 then just buy pcm-1 it’s cheaper

or thermalright heilos

[empty quartz]

[dusty dew]

helios is 7950?

[true stirrup]

Damn good to know then

[tidal geyser]

no

but its the same thing

[empty quartz]

@steel umbra kevstinky

Go shower

[steel umbra]

Ace playing card

[fickle ivy]

yep seen it but afaik theres not a cable that will plug into both hdmi and dp

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/you-smell-stinky-you-stinky-you-stink-wow-gif-24104350

[steel umbra]

no

it’s pcm from thermalright

if you want legitimate ptm7950 there are couple aliexpress stores that sell it such as passionate girl store, middle999 seems to be selling rebranded pcm-1 as ptm7950

[glossy veldt]

so sad

why is hdmi so much popular if it's a paid dp

isnt dp simply free

[steel umbra]

thermal grizzly ptm if not aliexpress

[fickle ivy]

OH MY GOD, i just realized im getting a phone so i can finally have 2fa and proper security

[empty quartz]

@fickle ivy

[tidal geyser]

how do you manage day to day without a phone

[rigid sierra]

I'm running ollama on a triple GPU server, but the power consumption is about 100w for the whole system. I was expecting a lot more...

[fickle ivy]

this is incredibly cursed

[fickle ivy]

not having a phone is the least of my problems

[steel umbra]

pcm-1 seems to be oem pcm 8500 which is not honeywell stuff

[tidal geyser]

it means you are doing something wrong

also how did you manage to get 3 gpus to work together

[fickle ivy]

ive had to resort to usng steam in school when im done my work to play games (we have pretty beafy pcs as they are meant for rendering)

[rigid sierra]

I opened nvidia-smi and it seems like the model is getting distributed evenly

2x 1660s and a 3080
Getting around 90t/s on a deepseek-r1:14B

[fickle ivy]

wait no thats not it

neither of those would fit in both ports

[empty quartz]

Well no shit

Dp is completely different from hdmi port

[fickle ivy]

then why did you ping me?

[empty quartz]

Because this is the closest thing to what you’re asking for

[rigid sierra]

Proxmox > Debian lxc with proprietary drivers

[fickle ivy]

im tempted to make one just to spite you, even if its not possible i wanna try

because if it can work with as a port i dont see how it wouldnt work as a cable

[gilded harness]

so the 25 bucks pc works

impressive

[fickle ivy]

i got a $100 pc with a $200 mouse and a gtx 760 and i5 6500

[rigid sierra]

Ryzen 3 was my beloved

[gilded harness]

im tempted to get 3050 6gb

[empty quartz]

I still got ya beat

[fickle ivy]

they still reselll for around $200

[gilded harness]

worst decision but the best upgrade for this shit

[tidal geyser]

do not be

[fickle ivy]

go for something AMD if your on a budget

[gilded harness]

whatchu got

[fickle ivy]

if your not loyal to nvidia

[empty quartz]

$0.50 cad

[steel umbra]

@true stirrup cooler bro store should be selling legitimate ptm7950

[gilded harness]

☹️

[fickle ivy]

more than me

[gilded harness]

yeah you beat me

[rigid sierra]

I wanna get 2x 3060 12gb to replace those 1660s

[fickle ivy]

wait shit, if my phone is coming will i have to pay teriffs, cuz its from US to Canada, but it was not purchased just shipped

[empty quartz]

I used to have a $60 cad build with an i7 4790k

[fickle ivy]

what gpu?

[empty quartz]

Wait

[gilded harness]

4790k was goat man

[fickle ivy]

also overclocked the 760 do be like +10-15% higher than most

[empty quartz]

No it was $60 usd, not $60 cad

[gilded harness]

it carries me thru the covid

[empty quartz]

Too eepy

[empty quartz]

R9 290

[gilded harness]

i used to have 4790k with 1060

[fickle ivy]

so better gpu but slightly worse cpu

[empty quartz]

After my 290 died, i daily drove a 1080

[gilded harness]

great gpu

my first pc lmfao

[empty quartz]

No

[fickle ivy]

wait no nvm youre right

[worn flint]

nice pfp

[fickle ivy]

what a deal tho

[ebon marlin]

whats up with steam achievements I have this unlocked but steam shows that I havent fulfilled the prequisite with only 25% of it done

[fickle ivy]

i was going off generation

[empty quartz]

My 290 was rx 580 performance

[fickle ivy]

damn

[steel umbra]

unfortunately i couldn’t make an april fool this year so, ig next year

[gilded harness]

how do i install this 4090 while being compatible with everything inside this ass prebuild

[ebon marlin]

doesnt the 290 also consume like twice or thrice the amount of power as the 580 tho

[fickle ivy]

thank you

[empty quartz]

Shhhhh

[worn flint]

i love Draken

but viggen and gripen is better

[fickle ivy]

i dont like how the viggen is basically just the draken wings but the angles flipped

[worn flint]

wdym

[fickle ivy]

idk how to explain it

[gloomy sleet]

no?

[worn flint]

i've sat inside the cockpit of a draken before

[gloomy sleet]

they are completely different aerodynamically

[gloomy sleet]

yeah

[fickle ivy]

the way the wings have a more outer curve instead of inner curve

[gilded harness]

I have an idea
The idea:

[gloomy sleet]

yeah completely different

the draken has a lot more low end lift

[fickle ivy]

i didnt word it right

[worn flint]

then computers got good enough to do aerodynamic simulations and now we have gripen

[gloomy sleet]

and a higher speed loss in sharp turns

[gilded harness]

used to daily drive this in war thunder

[vale wing]

I have a quick question

[gilded harness]

shit goes crazy and ass at the same time

[gilded harness]

so true

[gloomy sleet]

i prefer props in sim

[fickle ivy]

i usually run the A-10A Late but ive started playing GRB

[vale wing]

im making a budget computer right— and my old cpu (ryzen 3 1200) just doesn't work so i bought a provisional cou (ryzen 5 1400) just to make sure it works

I was thinking of putting a rx 580 in the machine which would replace a 1050ti

[gloomy sleet]

dopamine

[fickle ivy]

i should probably play sim with props, as ive never gotten a missile kill only gun kills

Welp... @Speedtest just destroyed the best speed test app in the world... Every single speed test has half the page covered with this survey junk. No way to dismiss and persistent on every test. Absolutely disgusting.

We’re not a legal server

[empty quartz]

Legally its your property, but if she grounded you she has the legal right to take it away, but thats all she can do

[raven sluice]

just don't use the overrated ookla speed test, simple

use Google speed test

[fickle ivy]

imo, its okay, its a free service with limited ads

[raven sluice]

or fast by Netflix

[distant frigate]

Ookla Speedtest is not overrated. I find it to be the best

[raven sluice]

Microsoft Edge is good

[distant frigate]

Fast is inaccurate sometimes

[azure topaz]

bros mad about a survey

[fickle ivy]

im not grounded, she doesnt want me to return to the house, ever, says i should be thrown out on the streets

[azure topaz]

it does not matter 🔥

[raven sluice]

Microsoft Edge is better than Google Chrome

[azure topaz]

theyre both chromium

theyre the same 🔥

[raven sluice]

indeed

but ede is better

[empty quartz]

Thats just illegal

[azure topaz]

theyre the same 🔥

[raven sluice]

less bloat

edge uses less ram

[azure topaz]

its a browser

[empty quartz]

No

[azure topaz]

is your computer from 2004 perhaps?

[raven sluice]

edge is better

[azure topaz]

when have we cared about ram usage. what the fuck

[empty quartz]

@azure topaz edge sucks, but is also decent

[raven sluice]

still, edge uses resources more efficiently

[azure topaz]

its the same

[distant frigate]

I gotta say though. Fast can be good sometimes when checking video throttling.

[silent trout]

Anyone has Apple Music

[raven sluice]

I can see you guys don't know shit

[azure topaz]

its a browser this has to be bait

[rapid quarry]

Either cite what you are asserting or dont assert it at all

[azure topaz]

its not a topic anyone should care about in 2025 😭

[raven sluice]

it's better this way, you people stay on Google Chrome

[azure topaz]

enhojy the extra

125 megabytes of ram

[empty quartz]

🥶

[raven sluice]

alright another unpopular opinion

[rapid quarry]

I uses firefox. Checkmate

[azure topaz]

thats not unpopular

i do just think ur trying to rage bait tho

[raven sluice]

Netflix is good

[ivory sorrel]

It will change my whole life

[empty quartz]

@distant frigate

[azure topaz]

guaranteed. or your money back

[distant frigate]

Pretty nice

Nice download and upload

[hallow jasper]

the irony

[fickle ivy]

she doesnt care about laws unless they benifit her, she has comitted multiple felonys towards me but the second somethign is slightly off at work she calls th epolice and fire department and goes on leave, last time i chached she was employed by 6 places tryna sue them all

[raven sluice]

it's fine man

keep using Google Chrome

[azure topaz]

okay edger

[empty quartz]

Police then

@azure topaz adblock still works on ms edge

Checkmate

[azure topaz]

adblock works on chrome

[raven sluice]

but it is true, you people don't know shit

[azure topaz]

keep rage baiting the entire day away

[raven sluice]

can't even accept change

[crystal pond]

do you think we'll be able to take pc elden ring save files and move them into the switch?

[empty quartz]

Let me guess, ztt child?

[raven sluice]

can't accept alternative ways

[distant frigate]

Like sometimes a carrier can show me getting 300 Mbps download on LTE on Ookla but fast shows 2.1 Mbps or smth like that

[raven sluice]

no, I'm a Linus fan

[azure topaz]

YOU cant accept alternative ways if anyone. bro ur mad or "joking" about a browser

saying we dont know shit for using chrome brother.

honk shoooo

[raven sluice]

because it's true

[azure topaz]

honk shoooooo

[raven sluice]

people who don't know shit use chrome

[empty quartz]

@azure topaz stop letting this child’s ragebait get to your head

[tidal geyser]

chromium

[raven sluice]

they just think it's the only browser available

[ivory sorrel]

Honk shoo

[azure topaz]

im pretty sure hes just stupid im not sure

[azure topaz]

💀 😭 im just confused at this point how does a browser correlate with knowledge

[raven sluice]

keep thinking that

[azure topaz]

how does someone think chrome is the only browser when edge is installed on your computer

before you even install chrome

[raven sluice]

because they don't know

[azure topaz]

know what?

howd they get chrome if they dont know edge isnt on their computer

[hallow jasper]

I beg to defer.

[elder quarry]

Fr

[ivory sorrel]

Same way head shape does maybe. It doesn’t.

[raven sluice]

they don't know that edge is the same, they're downloading another browser that is the same

[azure topaz]

did they install it with winget or somethign?

[elder quarry]

Chrome is worse than edge tbh
