[carmine yew]

unless you're going to 25gbps or higher, we're going to laugh at you forever

[tidal geyser]

i mean to the server or what sfp/qsfp/smn else will you use?

[ocean axle]

cheaper to get a board that could do x8x8x4 for dual GPU + network card than replace the network card with a pcie 4.0 one to let x2 be fine

FWIW, 40gb 3.0x8 card, so, 3.0x4 is still a bottleneck, but its good enough

[frigid blade]

lol, im fine with the laughs, im trying to go overkill so I never have to upgrade this again

[carmine yew]

then you need to buy 25gbps or faster networking

[tidal geyser]

what will the networking for the server be

[tidal geyser]

small homelab 100Gb WOOOW

[dark comet]

2 or 3 fan model for the 7800xt?

[tidal geyser]

nice

[ocean axle]

is this in your main desktop, and you will be accessing it directly?

[tidal geyser]

server

[zenith sigil]

Is an odyssey G5 QHD 165Hz 27 inches good? 4060M gpu for 170 euros

[tidal geyser]

he is putting a HBA card in it

[ocean axle]

yea, you can shove an HBA in a desktop

[carmine yew]

you're so worried about the x8 for your HBA?

Yet if you get 10gbps networking, it woud do 1/3 of the speed your drives will do.

[dark comet]

Thanks

[frigid blade]

Youll need to give me a second to explain it, its going to be a HCI

[tidal geyser]

well yeah but not a lot of people do dat

[ocean axle]

the only part that matters is if it will be going over your LAN network or not

and if it is, what network cards you are using in both the server and client machines

[frigid blade]

If youre trying to explain to me that the speeds computers get depend on more than just what the internet you pay for, then yes I know that, you need to match the speed with your nic

[zenith sigil]

https://www.mediamarkt.be/fr/product/_msi-monitor-g272qpf-e2-27-pouces-wqhd-ips-in-plane-switching-2130720.html

is this better

[carmine yew]

not a single person mentioned internet
except you

[tidal geyser]

what NIC will this server have

[frigid blade]

and if it is, what network cards you are using in both the server and client machines

[tidal geyser]

no internet there

[ocean axle]

yea, that has nothing to do with your internet

[carmine yew]

that's not internet

[frigid blade]

Yes, also over the internet tho, im thinking 2.5Gbps cards

[tidal geyser]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/878018564030890038/996275659347337316/878724611720740925-1.gif

[carmine yew]

then you may as well run the hba in an x1 slot

[ocean axle]

ok, so, 2.5gbps cards are good for around 250MB/s

[tidal geyser]

one HDD

his plan is lots of NVMEs

[carmine yew]

two or three, if you get into some seeking

[tidal geyser]

fair enough

[frigid blade]

The NVMEs arent for the storage server

[tidal geyser]

then why 4 nvme slots

NPU?

[carmine yew]

i'm assuming virtualization

[frigid blade]

Yep ^

[tidal geyser]

dis i do not know about

[distant frigate]

This lol

[ocean axle]

yea, so, i wouldn't worry too much about the HBA speed

[tidal geyser]

o each client gets its own dedicated nvme

[frigid blade]

GPU partitioning, 1 NVME per VM

[carmine yew]

and again: if you actually care about your data access speeds, you need 25gbps networking or faster.

2.5 is a fuckin' joke.

And this has nothing to do with internet

[distant frigate]

You can go 500 Mbps or 1 gig if you have a big family though or if your a heavy internet user

[ocean axle]

bruh, you fell for the same fucking trap

we are talking about internal network speeds, NOT internet speeds

[tidal geyser]

i was using wifi for my server at one point

but na i now just keep the door open

[ocean axle]

i run 40gb internal networking, and have 300/30 internet service

[tidal geyser]

i only have 1GbE 😦

[distant frigate]

Ahhhh

[tidal geyser]

i have wanted to go 10gig but ubiquiti launched THE perfect thing but cant keep it in stock

[ocean axle]

why ubiquiti?

[tidal geyser]

prices for other shit in Norway aint the best also the UCG fiber has all of their software

[ocean axle]

ahh yes, non-us markets exist

i run mikrotik switches, because cheaper

[frigid blade]

Anyway, here is the context because I still enjoy the feedback:

Wanted to have desktops in any room I want without a tower, takes up space. So the idea is to partition the 4090 between 3 or 4 VMs

[carmine yew]

for gaming?

[tidal geyser]

o no

[frigid blade]

Stick a mini pc to the back of a monitor to stream the desktop

[tidal geyser]

VMs and anti cheat

[frigid blade]

Ive been able to play most games that I play

[tidal geyser]

also can you even split a 4090 that way

[ocean axle]

you know you cant split a non-quadro nvidia card like that, right?

[frigid blade]

yah

[frigid blade]

But I did it, and it works

[ocean axle]

hacked drivers?

[frigid blade]

Want the docs?

[random gyro]

big hand people are jumpingfor joy

[frigid blade]

I cant say I know everything, I got it from someone else

its through hyper v

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/hyper-v/add-vmgpupartitionadapter?view=windowsserver2025-ps

You copy some specific drivers from the host to the VM

[delicate sleet]

Uh im asking as a last resort,My mouse (redragon mouse idk what version) Just stops clicking when i open tabs it moves ect but only 1 tab or game works for example i open google and roblox and roblox becomes gray and i cant click anything on it and google works but i cant turn it off and i cant acces my task bar the only thing that fixes it is Control Alt Del and turning on task manager

[native dagger]

lets go chat, i got my new gpu the day before tariffs dropped

[distant frigate]

Yeah. Get your electronics in before the stupid tariffs kick in

[ocean axle]

so, you have hacked drivers

[native dagger]

got my pretty, XFX rx9070 XT qick

[ocean axle]

nvidia locks this feature behind the paywall of a quadro

[frigid blade]

Ah, I thought by hacked you mean modified

[ocean axle]

thats exactly what i mean

[frigid blade]

I didnt modify them at all

You just copy and paste

[delicate sleet]

I actually need help its been happening all day

[tidal geyser]

hmmmmm the pixel 8 pro is on sale rn

[azure topaz]

there’s a way to do it on any nvidia gpu by copying specific parts of the nvidia driver to the client machine. it’s annoying and time consuming

i think craft computing has a video on it

[frigid blade]

Its not annoying or time consuming at all lol, you search nv_ or something like that and then copy + paste

You can even make a simple script to do it

[wicked dew]

can anyone find a wifi card for this pc https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/svQqPJ

[ocean axle]

oh, are you bullshitting the driver in some way?

officially, heres the support list, https://docs.nvidia.com/vgpu/18.0/product-support-matrix/index.html

its only pro/enterprise cards on there

[azure topaz]

something like that. but yeah official support is quadro

[tidal geyser]

https://www.google.com/search?q=pcie+wifi+card

[azure topaz]

not changing anything in files just moving them

[frigid blade]

The only “annoying” part is having to do it after each driver update

But again, that can be automated

I’d say this is the most niche and fun thing I’ve ever found

Not long ago there was barely any documentation on it

[wicked dew]

idk what any good ones are

[charred sundial]

sos i need a background

[tidal geyser]

ax210

wait what was the one they rec here

[charred sundial]

]]]\

oops accident

[tidal geyser]

anything intel ax for networking

[frigid blade]

But yah, GPU partitioning VMs, using sunshine to stream the desktop

And like $300 mini PCs running the moonlight client to connect

Costs a lot less than buying a few $1k+ PCs

[wicked dew]

is the one u sent good “ax210”

[tidal geyser]

you can go ax 210 not sure how many pcie cards there are of it

[frigid blade]

@ocean axle could you help me rebuild it on PCPP?

You are wayyyyy more knowledgeable than I am

[hoary agate]

did this shitass laptop just brick TWO drives

[distant frigate]

https://www.reddit.com/r/FiberOptics/s/UyBVPJt6k0

[tidal geyser]

use ahci

[distant frigate]

Like how he did some labeling on PON

[tidal geyser]

if its already then use raid

[bronze jay]

Why don't people care about power supply displays? It's really helpful for staying on top of wasted power and also it just looks really cool

[clear spruce]

@tidal geyser made it worse somehow

[hoary agate]

wdym

[clear spruce]

Now it does not even turn on

[ocean axle]

you can see your PSU?

[tidal geyser]

in bios use ahci for the drive

[bronze jay]

Yes easily

[tidal geyser]

overheating probs

[frigid blade]

Well some people, like me, don’t look into their PCs in the back

[hoary agate]

for what

[ocean axle]

you should fix that

[tidal geyser]

replace thermal paste if that does not work its a laptop as old as me

[tidal geyser]

for it to work again?

[clear spruce]

Huh

[tidal geyser]

yes

[clear spruce]

But i just turned it on after like 30 minutes?

[tidal geyser]

yea?

[frigid blade]

Have you guys ever ran XMP profiles on an AMD board?

[tidal geyser]

:3

[bronze jay]

You can easily see it through the side panel I don't understand

[frosty oriole]

I need faster cores.

[ocean axle]

yes, it will probably be just fine

[frosty oriole]

Well, maybe not need, but want, yes.

[frigid blade]

I’m buying 2 kits of 96GB 6800 but they are XMP

I read that a few years back earlier bios had issues

So I’m hoping it’s fine

[tidal geyser]

ryzen 7000 and 9000 cant do 6800 1:1

[carmine yew]

you're not running XMP with 192GB RAM

[ocean axle]

i mean, you wont be doing 6800

but thats not because its XMP

[frigid blade]

Yah, I don’t need the 6800, I just got a good deal

[tidal geyser]

at 1:2 he will but ehhh is it really 6800 then

[carmine yew]

you'll be lucky to get 5200 with 192gb RAM

[bronze jay]

Luckily the ROG power supplies are manufactured by seasonic, so they're reliable and it's easy to find compatible cables

[tidal geyser]

i got a better deal

[clear spruce]

Wasnt an overheating prob

I found out one of the ram is faulty.

[tidal geyser]

its 17 year old thermal paste

[tidal geyser]

well that will do it too

[clear spruce]

I switched between 2 ram sticks

One works, other doesnt.

In same slot too btw

[frigid blade]

Have you guys ever tried the fast teamgroup SSDs? I’m confused why they’re so cheap when they’re quite fast

[clear spruce]

No way bro, sim

[tidal geyser]

what

[clear spruce]

That faulty ram made everything literally EVERYTHING not work

Even the speakers work now???

[distant frigate]

https://www.fierce-network.com/broadband/trumps-new-tariffs-could-be-devastating-telco-supply-chains

[tidal geyser]

that is how ram works yea

[distant frigate]

Fuckk

[frigid blade]

Like 1Tb with 7Gbps read and write for $50?

[wild solar]

finnaly hit 3.6 ghz

[tidal geyser]

use hwinfo

[wild solar]

me?

[tidal geyser]

wut

[tidal geyser]

the guy behind you

[wild solar]

ah

[carmine yew]

mp44? They're good drives.

the mp44q are kinda meh, tho, cuz QLC

[frigid blade]

Yah, the Qs

[tidal geyser]

but no i did actually mean you

[tidal geyser]

QLC"

[frigid blade]

What’s QLC?

[carmine yew]

QLC Nand is... kinda gross, and has a much shorter life

[frigid blade]

Ah

[carmine yew]

Quad Layer Cells

4 bits of data per nand cell

[frigid blade]

Still pretty cheap, I guess that’s the trade off? Shorter life

[carmine yew]

MP44 (non Q), SN580, or other drives that are TLC are available

[frigid blade]

They were on sale for $51 when I first checked, that’s why I was surprised

[carmine yew]

around 50 bucks for an okay 1TB NVME is about right

[charred sundial]

i found a background i love (i love winnie the pooh) and its blinding me, so who cares! i like it

[carmine yew]

invert the colors and see how it looks

[charred sundial]

already tried, looks really bad

it looks like a horror story now

[tidal geyser]

xd

here is my background

[charred sundial]

fair point

[charred sundial]

i might change up the colour to a uhh

like yellowish, but its not a png

[tidal geyser]

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

[frigid blade]

I think I might be going too overkill with the hard drives though, I can’t really afford new ones either

[tidal geyser]

what is wrong with used ones?

[frigid blade]

Nothing, but I don’t want them dying randomly on me

[tidal geyser]

well more like recertified

[carmine yew]

I mean, you've been talking about building a "server" that'd have an expected pricetag in the 5-8K USD Range?

So..... I mean, that's up to you

[tidal geyser]

good thing most places offer VERY long warrantys

[frigid blade]

Yah 5 years are what I look for

[frigid blade]

I’d never pay that much for what I have, I hunt for deals lol

I got my entire PC that came with the 4090 for $2.5k after tax, 13900k and not much ram tho

[tidal geyser]

i hunt for better deals

[tidal geyser]

is the bios updated?

[carmine yew]

I'm just saying, the parts you've been spitting out is a 5-8K pricetag for your server.

So... that's up to you what you decide to do.

[frigid blade]

No, I should probably do that, I never had issues and didn’t think about it

[tidal geyser]

O BOY

that cpu is 100% degraded by a bit

[frigid blade]

You’re talking about the microcode issues right?

Yah, maybe, good thing I’m selling it

[tidal geyser]

what

[carmine yew]

CPU Degredation issues.
not microcode issues

the microcode stopped the damage

[strange atlas]

why is discord so slow

[frigid blade]

Microcode fixes* sorry

[tidal geyser]

but cant repair it

its like slowly breaking every bone in your body over time and then slowing down or stopping with the bios update

[frigid blade]

Can’t RMA?

[tidal geyser]

it aint gonna fix it, it just stops it

[clear spruce]

Bro sim, you dont understand, i was going through sk much paain, thought the gpu was dead, though the screen was broken, but it was a faulty ram bruh

[tidal geyser]

you can

[frigid blade]

I don’t know if I should attempt that or make the next owner deal with it

Anyway, I did find a few 10-14Tb drives for like $100 each that had 5 year warranty’s

[tidal geyser]

uhm

[tidal geyser]

TB

[frigid blade]

I’ll probably get those, most of the storage is for the surveillance system

[tidal geyser]

HAD or have

[frigid blade]

Have

[tidal geyser]

WD purple does not mean its just for that

it can still be used for normal shit

[frigid blade]

I don’t think they are purple

[frigid blade]

I think they were NAS drives

[tidal geyser]

WD red?

[clear canyon]

red?

[frigid blade]

Idek, they are white labels or whatever it’s called

[hollow otter]

Got me a 5090 on the way boys 😮‍💨

[frigid blade]

Relabeled

[tidal geyser]

only one brand makes something specific surveillance drives

[tidal geyser]

no

what is the name or picture

[frigid blade]

Lemme get it

[tidal geyser]

pleas tell me it was msrp

[steel umbra]

$2899 my guess

[hollow otter]

Sort of. It ws a part of a Newegg bundle.

[steel umbra]

how much it was

[azure topaz]

a million

[tidal geyser]

so you overpayed by a massive amount and got something you do not need?

[carmine yew]

this was a super cool use of drones 😄

[steel umbra]

oh no ai rebellion

[hollow otter]

The bundle itself was a little over $3700 after taxes. It came with an Intel Z890 board but im selling the board since I am using a 9950X3D

[tidal geyser]

i have not seen this before

[tidal geyser]

the 5090 is meant to be 2000/2400

[steel umbra]

so like $1000 over msrp

[rare lava]

Hello I went to go boot my pc and it didn’t post a screen I tried different monitors hdmi and swapped my gpu and no post it it gives a dram light and cpu light on the mobo pls help

[carmine yew]

hdd?

[tidal geyser]

that z890 board aint gonna sell for more then 400 with luck

[tidal geyser]

no a VERY VERY small NAS

[hollow otter]

Newegg raised their prices on all 50 serie GPus. Best Buy is about to do the same.

[carmine yew]

neat

[tidal geyser]

well with a 3.5 HDD in it

[tidal geyser]

/2400

[frigid blade]

@tidal geyser MDD

[tidal geyser]

i know its meant to be 2400 now

[carmine yew]

my router has a usb A port on it
You can stick in a USB Drive and use that as a Network Drive

[frigid blade]

sorry, edited

[tidal geyser]

yeah same, i tried it with a usb stick but umm it did not go well

[tidal geyser]

MDD

i need a pic of this

[frigid blade]

Similar to this, just more storage

[carmine yew]

https://liliputing.com/this-diy-nas-has-four-m-2-slots-for-storage-two-2-5-gbe-lan-ports-and-an-alder-lake-n-processors/

[tidal geyser]

never heard of MDD before

[frigid blade]

Yah, I didn’t either, they are WD drives

But they put their own labels on it

[clear spruce]

Sim

[carmine yew]

it's SIMM
and DIMM

[clear spruce]

Im trying win7 atm, if it works im an absolute dummy

[tidal geyser]

yea the n100 is just so perfect for so many things

[steel umbra]

i don recommend searchin

[tidal geyser]

xd

just do MDD hdd

[carmine yew]

imagine just having a pocketable 16TB NVME NAS

[frigid blade]

I was thinking about using one for the stream from the VMs, but I don’t think it can do 1440p @ 144fps

[clear spruce]

You dont understand, a faulty ram was the problem sine day 1 i think

[carmine yew]

https://tenor.com/view/the-joke-superman-flying-missing-the-joke-not-getting-the-joke-gif-16558902

[tidal geyser]

i have a lenovo compact pc that i can slide right into my backpack

[carmine yew]

N305 for that

[carmine yew]

but that probably doesn't have 4 nvme slots

[clear spruce]

My heart is beating so fast, im gonna cry if it works

[frigid blade]

I found some AMD mini PCs with the 780m that I think I’ll get

[tidal geyser]

it does have a x16 slot

[tidal geyser]

those can even do a lot of local gaming

[clear spruce]

TKitch, i''ve been trying to fix the laptop since idk, 3-4 ywars?

[frigid blade]

The setup I think will be sick, being able to have so much “power” inside of the mini PC

It’ll look like the peripherals are plugged into the monitor

The only issue was forwarding MIC input to the VM

But I got that figured out with a simple python script and virtual audio driver

[steel umbra]

who at sapphire thought this would be good idea
atleast to me it isn’t

[tidal geyser]

wa

spring loaded mounting

[hybrid acorn]

Best guess is that the laptop is swapping from the igpu to the dgpu when you plug the power adapter in and that causes the monitors to go black and reboot

extra pressure

[last flicker]

Hi guys, what's the best approach to get an extra USB 3.0 hub? Splitter, USB 2.0-> 3.0 adapter, or PCI expansion card?

[carmine yew]

HOLD THE FUCKING PHONE MOTHERFUCKERS

The stupid Palworld Dating Sim... WASN'T an April Fools joke?!?!?!?!

What the ACTUAL FUCK?!

[steel umbra]

yes but if you pull the backplate-

you get 0 pressure

[clear spruce]

Wtf

[carmine yew]

uhhhh a usb hub provides more usb 3 ports

[hybrid acorn]

You can not get a USB 2.0 to 3.0 adapter

That's like not how technology works

[tidal geyser]

BUUUU but i wanna break rules as they are meant to be broken

[steel umbra]

@tidal geyser you realise it’s an issue when you hold the card or in the worse case if you gpu support it by the backplate

[last flicker]

it's a thing lol. just not running usb 3.0 speed

[tidal geyser]

nice

[tidal geyser]

why does it need to be 3.0 but not 3.0??

[hybrid acorn]

Seems oddly pointless??

Just get a PCIe card or a thunderbolt card and a dock

[gleaming rose]

reminder to all students that unidays and similar programs offer discounts on damn near everything for students
if you're buying something, check if there's a student discount

[steel umbra]

usb 2.0 to 3.0 is pointless

2.0 is simply missing the extra pins 3.0 has

[hybrid acorn]

Unidays barely has any good tech stuff on it other than corsair

[last flicker]

Any of you tried usb 3.0 splitter? I am leaning that appoach

[gleaming rose]

and b&h

[carmine yew]

you can't just split usb ports

[tidal geyser]

not possible

[hybrid acorn]

What's that

[tidal geyser]

but why are you doing this

[gleaming rose]

google

[carmine yew]

B&H is a store

[tidal geyser]

[gleaming rose]

i buy from them way too much

[tidal geyser]

god i hate the rate limit here

[hybrid acorn]

I see now but they're not on unidays

https://www.myunidays.com/US/en-US/partners/c2ed9b4d-e26f-4ed6-a50e-380b967d1dd9/view

[clear canyon]

buy one

[clear canyon]

yeah its ass

[tidal geyser]

hub?

[hybrid acorn]

Link is gone for me

[tidal geyser]

ok so the case needs 2 internal 3.0 ports on the motherboard?

[hybrid acorn]

Irish version probably doesn't surpport it

[gleaming rose]

it's literally there

[gleaming rose]

ah yeah, b&h is an american company

[hybrid acorn]

Guys what's 5090 Laptop equivalent to in a desktop

[fallen sky]

After this the monitor just goes to sleep

[frigid blade]

Is there a CPU better than the 9950X at a similar price?

[gloomy sleet]

probably somewhere you can get torx bits

[frigid blade]

The 3D is like $300 more

[gloomy sleet]

at what

[frigid blade]

Everything, overall better performance

[gloomy sleet]

idk

for gaming the 9800x3 is better?

that’s not specific at all

[stable beacon]

cant go wrong with home depot, thats how i did this to my case

[frigid blade]

Actually, I need it to be good at mixed stuff, it’s going to be used for a storage server, running VMs, gaming, etc

[fallen sky]

that case went thru torture

[frigid blade]

That’s why I’m trying to find something that’s overall better but not too much more expensive

[cold skiff]

That case is as stable as the new tariff economy.

[orchid lintel]

I live in India.
How much will orange clown's tariffs increase cpu and gpu prices?

Im so angry right now so expect me to speak rudely

[stable beacon]

how do i tell if a drive is hdd or ssd without taking one out, both have same capacity

[orchid lintel]

Task manager or crystaldiskinfo

[cold skiff]

Can you visually see it inside your case right now? That’s quickest.

[frigid blade]

Task manager tells you

[tawny knoll]

Yeah

Will either say HDD or SSD

[stable beacon]

i modded task manager to look like the old one from windows 7 a few years back and ive been too lazy to figure out how to revert it

[tawny knoll]

For india, not much unless for some reason they ship the parts through india first

[frigid blade]

Bruh

[tawny knoll]

Smart you are

[orchid lintel]

What if our pm modi here for whatever reason applies a bigger tariff

[cold skiff]

He won’t.

India doesn’t have the economy to do that.

[frigid blade]

I forgot I needed a keyboard to install windows

[tawny knoll]

if its india imparting tarrifs on china+taiwan, that's a really dumb idea since they do way too much to warrant that

[random gyro]

do u even know how tarrifs work use ur brain

[cold skiff]

It’s a nation that sends people to the rockets to the moon and lets its people live in poverty. It won’t start a trade war

[tawny knoll]

Yeah

[orchid lintel]

U know what I was gonna come back at u for what, but honestly the space program was kinda stupid

[cold skiff]

It’s one hell of a cheap space program. Just totally unnecessary considering the state of rural India that would love the attention.

[orchid lintel]

Its just a distraction so Indians don't pay attention to real problems

[orchid lintel]

How tho genuinely curious

[tawny knoll]

If he applies a universal tariff that would ruin india. He would only likely apply a tariff on US if at all. If the US applies tarrifs that would not effect india if the parts do not go through US borders.

[random gyro]

i thought this was self explanatory im ngl but ig not

[tawny knoll]

Tariffs work as a tax on goods going to/through a country, so like you have sales tax and then you'd (the company passing the price onto you) need to also pay a tariff on top of that

[cold skiff]

Imagine claiming to be the leader of the “free world” and then moving forward to make it as closed as you possibly can.

[random gyro]

media makes everything sound bad

[frigid blade]

Brexit moment

[steel umbra]

Bri’ish exit

[tawny knoll]

the bri'ish are here the bri'ish are here

[cold skiff]

Trump doesn’t understand it at all. Look at defence spending for a star. Trump has just added billions to his own nations spending when more and more counter tariffs come in.

I’m sure he has government stuff who are facepalming every day about this.

[orchid lintel]

@cold skiff are u pro palestine

[stable beacon]

what itx cases can fit an nh d15

[tawny knoll]

And we're still seeing national debt go up bc he doesn't want to raise taxes for the 1%

[cold skiff]

That’s every nation.

[orchid lintel]

Doesn't want to?
U mean reducing it every second

[cold skiff]

Too scared the 1% go elsewhere

[tawny knoll]

true

[orchid lintel]

Except the ones who don't have the 1% or the ones where the the venn diagram between the government and the 1% is basically a circle

[high elm]

not so fast then reach right

[frigid blade]

That’s not just the presidents job btw

Congress needs to pass it

[orchid lintel]

Same group so don't care lol

[cold skiff]

America investing billions in Intel chip plants with what, a 20 year turn around to full operations? Then lumping tariffs on the place that supplies 90% of the wafers for their technology is just golden.

[orchid lintel]

US is a dying empire

[cold skiff]

Tbh though atleast America only has one outward major problem to the rest of the world. Atleast Trump does what he says. In the UK we have a government that does everything the opposite to what it says and is pretty much trying to develop WW3.

[orchid lintel]

U mean he does all the bad things he says

[cold skiff]

Can say what you like about trump. Like him or hate him. Got to admire he actually does what he says he will do. Something politics, people and the world rarely get.

[cunning escarp]

Why is this is tech chat😭🙏

[cunning escarp]

W pfp

[orchid lintel]

Im gonna upgrade from a ryzen 3 2200g and gtx 1650 to a ryzen 5 5600 and rtx 4060

[cold skiff]

No idea what that means pal

[cunning escarp]

W profile pic 😭🙏

[orchid lintel]

It means he supports you supporting Palestine

[frigid blade]

That’s crazy this PC doesn’t have WiFi or BT

[cunning escarp]

Pfp=profile picture

[frigid blade]

I can’t use the internet even through phone data lmao

[orchid lintel]

Mine too, mine doesn't even have ethernet

[cunning escarp]

Wow

[frigid blade]

I never realized because I’ve always used Ethernet

[cunning escarp]

Man imagine having a functional pc

[frigid blade]

I do, it’s just my old one I brought to the new home to use, 3070 Ti and 13600k but no WiFi or BT

[cunning escarp]

My PC flickers and shutddown every 1
2 min

[cold skiff]

I don’t talk about Israel/Palestine just like I don’t talk about religion. It’s too sensitive a subject for most. Best left out of the internet tbfh

[frigid blade]

Well when it’s in your pfp it’s not really left out, but yah

[cold skiff]

That’s not the reason it’s in my profile picture though 😉

[hollow creek]

time for a usb dongle lol

[frigid blade]

I thought every modern mobo could do internet over USB

wtf is this

It’s a Z790-P

Bro, it has WiFi in the name

[latent gull]

That’s not why it’s in the name

[fallen sky]

Since my Ethernet port is lighting up orange, am I not getting the best possible speed or what’s up

[latent gull]

Some link lights are orange some are green, some change colors, what the light means is up to the MOBO manual

[latent gull]

If it has WiFi in the name but WiFi isn’t working, you likely need to download drivers

[fallen sky]

oh I see

[frigid blade]

I think the WiFi worked on this before tho

Oh, right

I reinstalled windows, no drivers anymore

That’s annoying

[cold skiff]

You have plugged the WiFi receiver in right? Just to be sure.

[frigid blade]

It’s the drivers

I had issues with them before

[latent gull]

If it’s built into the mobo it doesn’t have a usb receiver

[frigid blade]

I don’t have the antennas screwed in but I don’t think I used them anyway

[cold skiff]

You should have them screwed in

[frigid blade]

I totally forgot about that

[cold skiff]

Antenna/receiver. whichever he has is what I meant

[frigid blade]

Unscrewing antenna won’t make it disappear from windows

It’s a driver issue

[latent gull]

You should

Even if it technically works without them, you can get better speeds with them

[warm linden]

300 for a 4060 ti a good deal?

[cold skiff]

300 what?

[warm linden]

Usd

[latent gull]

Small chocolates

[frigid blade]

I know, I just don’t have them rn, I stopped using wifi so I took em off so I could put it close to the wall

I’ll have to dig through all my stuff and find them

Yah I see it in device manager, says no drivers

I hate moving around windows without a mouse

[cold skiff]

Having them in is like going from 56k internet to 100mb. It will be a noticeable difference.

[frigid blade]

Yes I know that

The speed isn’t an issue

I need drivers to use Internet but I need Internet to get drivers

Very annoying, gonna have to go back and install them onto a USB drive

Or wait until we have wired here

[cold skiff]

How big is the file?

[frigid blade]

I’m not writing it by hand

[cold skiff]

And no Ethernet access?

[frigid blade]

Not right now

[cold skiff]

Does your WiFi card also do Bluetooth?

[frigid blade]

I don’t think so, no option to turn it on

Don’t see it in device manager either

[cold skiff]

Do you have a cable for phone to PC?

[bronze jay]

Can someone please just recommend me a simple bracket I can buy on Amazon that will allow me to mount my 3.5 info hard drive in an internap 5.25 inch bay? Search results are being infuriatingly useless

[frigid blade]

Just gonna have to wait until tomorrow to bring it here

[frigid blade]

I’m already connected, confused why no internet with tethering

I can move data though from phone I guess

[bronze jay]

I just want to bolt the stupid drive in the stupid bay

[cold skiff]

That was going to be my suggestion

[frigid blade]

I gotta figure out how to do that

[formal lagoon]

Blender can be painful

[frigid blade]

But how do I figure out which drivers I need

[clear canyon]

15.5gigs of vram??

[frigid blade]

Oh, mobo specs

[dusk acorn]

Hey guys, got my first gpu today. Is there anything i need to do in the bios before i boot it up for the first time or is it just plug and play atp?

[cold skiff]

I’d imagine without antenna the tether signal is too weak.

[frigid blade]

I meant Internet over USB

[clear canyon]

you need to tell us what it is

before we can say

[dusk acorn]

9070 xt

[steel umbra]

normal day

[frigid blade]

Most likely plug and play with drivers to install

[clear canyon]

turn on resizeable bar

[cold skiff]

Well if it’s not older than time itself or he’s using windows it will be plug and play.

[clear canyon]

dudes missing half a gig of vram

[steel umbra]

the gpu ate it

[cold skiff]

Probably reserved

[dusk acorn]

Thats it?

[clear canyon]

thats not a thing for a dgpu

[clear canyon]

yes

[dusk acorn]

Perfect ty

[formal lagoon]

Yup

[clear canyon]

you should have 16 lol

[clear canyon]

see lol

[cold skiff]

Well windows or the application can do that. It just says it can’t use 100%.

[clear canyon]

not for a dgpu

[cold skiff]

The OS is absolutely capable of doing that

[clear canyon]

thats only for igpus

[formal lagoon]

13fps in wireframe mode

To be fair polyhaven's textures are brutal

[gleaming rose]

[clear canyon]

wow, last month

awsome notification

[latent gull]

I thought Skype was deprecated years ago

[dusk acorn]

Uhmmm, the pc turned on, didnt post and now it just shut itself off

Should I try turning it back on?

[clear canyon]

Da ai is off to collect data once more!

the channels I linked to it is not very active rn 😦

[dusk acorn]

Can u help me pls

[frigid blade]

Good news

I got the drivers onto the pc

Annoying news, can’t use iphones

Had to get an android out

[cold skiff]

You should be able to use the “share” function on the file via cable, but glad it’s sorted.

[frigid blade]

Huh weird

Nothing happens when I run the executable on some of them

[limber nacelle]

not really sure why you bought a radeon card for that use case 🤔

a used 3090 is significantly faster in render, has better compatability with other DCCs, and has more vram

[cold skiff]

How much is a used 3090 in the US?

[plain cypress]

Too much

[limber nacelle]

too much for what it is right now

[cold skiff]

Only ask as I’d imagine in the UK it’s probably half the price.

[plain cypress]

They currently sell for about a grand on ebay

[cold skiff]

Average £650 so what, $850?

[limber nacelle]

what res and format?

[formal lagoon]

I downloaded their enviroment

[limber nacelle]

I have a couple of 16k 32b EXRs that are like 3gb each

[frosty prism]

went to the store and got a 14600kf and a 5070

🙏

[graceful girder]

they just sell those?

[cold skiff]

I’d imagine they’ve got a lot of 14600kf in stock

5070s too

[frosty prism]

yes only 5070s and 5080s

and 1 5070 ti in stock

[cold skiff]

Why’d you choose the 14600?

[graceful girder]

where?

[frosty prism]

3un4

[graceful girder]

[frosty prism]

already had that picked, was goinna gert a uysed 3080 but the guy kept nagging and telling me getting no warranty isnt worth it

[graceful girder]

tf is that?

[frosty prism]

and everything other than 50 series cards was out of stock

soi i just goit the cheapest galax 5070 and dipped

[cold skiff]

The CPU

[graceful girder]

[cold skiff]

Wait. A. Minute. He didn’t try and sell you a 9070xt when you said 3080? He went with 5070?

[frosty prism]

no amd

[frosty prism]

it wont bottle neck the card

and i could always upgrade to a 12700k in the future

[graceful girder]

if u got that kinda money to spend amd has better processors

[cold skiff]

I’d imagine that guy is a hero getting a high 5 from colleagues for shifting a 5070. What you have before?

[frosty prism]

bro my budget was on max

i went likew 500 usd over the budget just for thatr 5070

[frosty prism]

this is my first ever pc lmao

[cold skiff]

https://tenor.com/view/facepalm-really-stressed-mad-angry-gif-16109475

[frosty prism]

our country has no amd

[cold skiff]

That sucks.

[graceful girder]

ur country sucks booty

same as mine

[frosty prism]

if i had amd id buy it like bro

[cold skiff]

There’s always a way.

[graceful girder]

bro triggered warship

[frosty prism]

but the 14600kf doesnt bottle neck the 5070 tho

850 W is enough for it too right

[cold skiff]

Yeah you’re good with that

[graceful girder]

depends on what you'll be doing with that card

[cold skiff]

It’s still a nice build that will work very well

[graceful girder]

better be platinum

[frosty prism]

its a 850 W gold+

[cold skiff]

It’s only a 250w card

He’s fine.

[frosty prism]

a850gl from msi

is the 5070 better than the 3080?

isnt it on basically the same peformance as the 4070 ti super

Sometimes when it is nice and warm, I work up in the birds nest.

[distant frigate]

I do feel like “smartphone addiction” is kinda real lmao.

[robust trail]

The birds nest is that thing to the left

[cold skiff]

Yes it’s just poor value. If you are coming from nothing or a very old series. Good card to have, does games well.

Nah, I use an rog ally

[cold skiff]

Well. It is an all AMD handheld. Still counts I guess

[robust trail]

My gaming PC is a 9950x and a 4090. I don’t use it much. I sit my desk enough already lol

[strange atlas]

god damn in where i live nintendo will cost as much as asus rog ally costs

[graceful girder]

7090XT, I'd like to know where I can acquire such a thing

[strange atlas]

asus rog might be a better purchase

[robust trail]

The ally is pretty damn good

The ally x is pretty damn betterer

[cold skiff]

Buying a Nintendo console is like buying an AMD gpu. You always need a challenger brand that offers something a little different.

Can’t wait for next gen, looking forward to elite dangerous in VR while I’m traveling.

Get me that bigscreen 2 and vegetable myself

[cold skiff]

Using VR while travelling sounds interesting.

Imagine sitting on a train and you accidentally jab someone in the chops. Thats going to make some great TikTok and Youthbe content

[graceful girder]

vr has come a long wat, most impressive

[graceful girder]

could also use it as an excuse to push over boomers

The idea of gyros being able to sense movement and you can simulate a different travelling view is oddly exciting to me

i want to rip them tho

Vision Pro to too damn big. Xreal glasses are fine for working on a plane and stuff… if the bigscreen beyond 2 has corrective lenses I’d be all in

[cinder raptor]

Weird take considering Nintendo uses Nvidia and sony uses amd

[random gyro]

hi mark

[random gyro]

I will be very loyal to Nvidia if you sent me a Blackwell 6000

[cold skiff]

It’s not the best hardware. AMD have done it a lot longer. PS6 will still be AMD too. Nvidia have a long way to go to compete in high end console market

[random gyro]

can someone give me a good prebuilt pc website

like the best one

[low sage]

is my asus a good thing to have downloaded with ASUS products?

[plain cypress]

It doesn't do much

It may update some firmware on laptops

[gleaming timber]

can anyone recommend some quiet 120mm rgb fans and some low profile ddr4 kits

these pre installed fans are so loud

[plain cypress]

Noctua NFA25 or whatever they're called

[plain cypress]

Have you tried a custom fan curve

[limpid ivy]

A12x25

[random gyro]

anyone got good monitor recommendations for me, i want a 1440p gaming one, i have a i5-14400f and a 4060 budget of 300 aud

[gleaming timber]

they have literally no way of connecting to my motherboard that’s why i want new ones lol

they’re some shitty pre installed fans

[plain cypress]

Are they molex powered?

[gleaming timber]

sata

[odd marsh]

MSI mag 271QPX

[gleaming timber]

my case is the diypc argb n1 bk, has the worst pre installed fans ever

[random gyro]

thanks i forgot to mention budget lol

[frigid blade]

Anyone know any fast M.2 SSDs that are on the cheaper end?

[gleaming timber]

and fans with rgb? 😅

[gleaming timber]

1tb cras c910 was recommended to me here, $60 usd

not 1tb specifically but the 1tb was $60 on amazon

Oh yah $52 5000MB/s

Have you heard of phantom-USB? It’s like micro-usb but you manually solder all 4+ wires. All the hillbilly’s use phantom-USB

how do u guys clean ur side panels

i got so many finger prints on mine and i keep leaving streaks

[frigid blade]

i just dont touch my side panel

[thorny saddle]

@fickle spindle

[shell horizon]

is this a good deal? https://www.ebay.com/itm/266715118513

[dusk acorn]

Would it matter to have a oc or non oc card if you’re going to manually overclock it?

[frigid blade]

It’s definitely cheap

[buoyant meteor]

Any here use 5400rpm hard disc for oc usage? Like storing data's , seeding abd bulk game storage. How these perform compared to regular 7200rpm Pc hdds?

[shell horizon]

dont got much money left

but i need a monitor lol

[frigid blade]

Do you care about size? Can probably get a portable 1440p 100Hz monitor for $70

[shell horizon]

i dont need 144p 100hz

[buoyant meteor]

Try to get something decent even if from marketplace. These random brands have weird colors and brightness, really harsh on eyes.

[shell horizon]

my 1660 aint cranking 1440p lol

[frigid blade]

I see, then yah it’s probably a good deal

But it’s 6ms response time

Apparently 6ms at 120+hz can be blurry

And that’s 6.5ms at 100Hz

[shell horizon]

il be keeping it at 60hz

[junior valve]

780ti can still do 1440p

[shell horizon]

if possible

[frigid blade]

Ah, then yah, it’s probably fine

[shell horizon]

oh

[junior valve]

beamng medium settings 55-65fps

[shell horizon]

with a 780?

[junior valve]

yes 780ti

[shell horizon]

i have good faith in my 1660 then

[junior valve]

west coast usa too

[shell horizon]

cuz i havnt even built my pc yet sob

[junior valve]

maybe get a used 1080ti for 100$

[shell horizon]

i alr got the 1660

i got it for a steal for 60$

[junior valve]

40$ more gets you a 1080ti which is like a 3060 without all the features

[frigid blade]

You can check here for benchmarks at 1440p https://www.techspot.com/review/1813-geforce-gtx-1660-mega-benchmark/

[shell horizon]

is the 1080ti better than the 1660?

[junior valve]

1080ti is 4% better than 3060

[frigid blade]

Significantly more

Like 60%

[junior valve]

its like a 1070 vs 1080ti

[shell horizon]

wish i knew that before i ordered my 1660

even tho i wont be playing AAA games

[frigid blade]

To this day it’s one of the best budget cards

[shell horizon]

well

i didnt know:(

that'll be my upgrade when i get more money then

[junior valve]

9% faster than a 3060 12gb

[frigid blade]

For $60 the 1660 is better deal tho I think

[shell horizon]

nvidia fumbled the 3060 bro 😭

[frigid blade]

What CPU you going for?

[junior valve]

have you heard of the 3050 laptop?

[shell horizon]

yea

[frigid blade]

I remember my first build, stole parts from my school

[shell horizon]

😭

[frigid blade]

I didn’t have any money at all

[shell horizon]

R55600

[junior valve]

12 years old 780ti is 13% faster than it lol

[shell horizon]

skulll

[frigid blade]

What’s the budget btw?

[junior valve]

i still do this

[frigid blade]

Im in college now and online so I sadly can’t anymore

[shell horizon]

ive alr ordered all the pc parts lol but

dont got a decent monitor

[frigid blade]

Just to clarify, I didn’t steal, I borrowed for a long time with permission

[shell horizon]

just a 12 inch tv

[junior valve]

my collection so far

[shell horizon]

LOL

[frigid blade]

Oh our school PCs didn’t have anything good

Just a 2060 super or something that some other kid took before me

They run CAD GPUs, so like quadros

No good for gaming

[junior valve]

why dont you just replace the school’s pc with a prop one

[shell horizon]

lol

[frigid blade]

I still have a Remote Desktop connection to the server

[shell horizon]

mischivious activities?

[junior valve]

i think i got a quadro fx3800

[frigid blade]

No, I did the lab setup for our networking class, I needed access

opinion on the Intel Arc A750

[frigid blade]

Is that the newer one?

[shell horizon]

idk

[junior valve]

oh

[junior valve]

newer one is B

[frigid blade]

Aha, yah the A is poopy

B is pretty good for their 2nd non integrated consumer GPU

[shell horizon]

if it aint broke, dont fix it:

[frigid blade]

im glad im finally moving away from jank builds

building my first prosumer pc

finally saved up enough

[shell horizon]

um

opinion on RX580?

[junior valve]

just upgrade everypart from the old pc

[junior valve]

old, no drivers support

[shell horizon]

mk

[frigid blade]

1080ti has double the performance

[frigid blade]

moving over to AMD instead of intel

Unless the 3D version drops price, im getting the 9950X

[junior valve]

plus 96.65% of rx580s are miners

[frigid blade]

Ah yah, I forgot, then they flooded the market after GPU mining stopped for Etheruem right?

[junior valve]

i think

[junior valve]

how about buying a 500$ case

seems reasonable

[frigid blade]

hell no

[shell horizon]

my case was 70$ sob

it has a handle on it lol

[junior valve]

its like 4 computers in a single case

[shell horizon]

why

just why

[frigid blade]

My build will be something like this

It’s going to run 3-4 VMs

And partition a 4090 between them

It’s to save space and money

[junior valve]

But I got the whole kit for $9 from eBay

[swift moss]

Arduino is nice because of nano and much io routed

Damn 9 bucks

That's like literally AliExpress prices

[peak knot]

Not eBay goodwill my bad

But yeah hard to argue with the costs

[swift moss]

Yeah

Im working on my scholarship PCB rn lol

[peak knot]

Looks like the previous owner tried one small project put like 3 jumpers in the nano with a single resistor with the ir sensor then put it all in the box again and gave it to goodwill

[shell horizon]

lol

[peak knot]

Pretty much was all new still and only the nano and like 3 jumpers and a random resistor weren’t in the original packaging still sealed

[peak knot]

bclk set to 102.9 and OC the snot out of the ram

[gilded sparrow]

so I have 5 fans currently 3 front intake one cpu intake and exaughst all 120mm I have a aio on the way and was wondering how to configure my fans like have my aio in the front on on the side or top and what to do with my fans

[blazing burrow]

Infront would be ideal for cooling, up top would be ideal for air pressure

[heavy knot]

normal for my desktop icons to flash like they were refreshed at random intervals? like after i log into my computer they flash like a minute after logging in. or when i am just chilling it happens?

[gleaming rose]

[gleaming rose]

"Trump tariffs provoke world condemnation and fears of a $2,300 iPhone"
$2300 and apple fans would still probably buy it

[sinful cobalt]

im on 18

[tidal trail]

Hmmm

Debating if I get one…

[cedar hollow]

its really really sad but not as sad as plastic memories

[gleaming rose]

i know that season 2 is very sad at times

[cedar hollow]

plastic memories by far and away the only anime to make me shed a tear

oh i guess worldend did too

[gleaming rose]

[cedar hollow]

world end harem will go down as one of the worst animes of all time

along with school days

[gleaming rose]

im not so sure of that

[cedar hollow]

actually school days def takes the cake for worst anime imo

[gleaming rose]

there is some serious dogshit

[sinful cobalt]

the absolute worst anime of all time that is actually known is darling in the franxx

[cedar hollow]

studio trigger highkey carried that anime

if it was done by anyone else it would be proper shit

[gleaming rose]

https://youtu.be/gOymiMEKWqQ?si=wxAPyjKYsUqRu6kQ
