[gusty wagon]

Yaaaaay

So thats where you were

[left dove]

that & general life

I'm just excited for it to be just me & two cattos

[latent gull]

But what about 3 cars?

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kitty-kitten-cat-meme-car-gif-13125278196998866219

[fickle ivy]

If I use a VPN on my phone and use hotspot, will the VPN apply to any devices I connect to the hotspot? I would guess yeah

[mellow cairn]

no

[glacial kraken]

If I buy this is it easy to solder clamps onto it?

[fickle ivy]

Is there any way I can make it work?

[mellow cairn]

if you have root on your phone

or you use a more advanced/different mobile router/device

or if you run the VPN on the client devices

[left dove]

I'm basically already a cat, so

yeah, 3 cats is accurate

[gusty wagon]

Hehe

[latent gull]

More kits always better

[bronze jay]

Microsoft Copilot has unironically been helping me work through my emotional problems. I just remember not to lose track of the fact that it's an AI and not truly a replacement for professional help.

It helps me make sense of things

I can never in good conscience recommend people go the route I'm taking but it's working for me

[frigid blade]

I feel like theres better models than what copilot uses for that

[gusty wagon]

I went the chatgpt route too and found it lacking, then i found Dr Alok Kanojia and a childhood-management book that helped me deal with 60-80% of my issues

[bronze jay]

I don't believe in therapy anymore

Not for me. They just tell me stuff I already figured out

The llm goes deeper because it can search the Internet

[gusty wagon]

Yeah because all the psych and doctors you've met have been trained on similar stuff

Give HealthyGamerGG a try

[bronze jay]

"there's someone out there for everyone" "you need to love yourself"

[gusty wagon]

They do weird af stuff

[bronze jay]

Blah blah bullshit I've heard before

[bronze jay]

What

[gusty wagon]

Youtube streamer

[bronze jay]

Literally my only problem is that I can't convince myself that it's possible for me to find a relationship

So I'm asking it for advice in "getting out there," trying to figure out what the hell that even means

[gusty wagon]

Same here, but i'm partially aromantic so there it goes

There's a video by Jaiden Animations on youtube that describes this

[bronze jay]

I wish I was aromantic. Then I would never have to think about it again and I could just be happy

I don't want to want a relationship. I'm forced to care because of my human instincts.

I wish I could cut them out like a tumor

[sinful cobalt]

aroma inside real

[gusty wagon]

Wrong channel

[bronze jay]

True

[gusty wagon]

The best thing you can do is start accepting whatever's in the mirror

I'm not here to deal with your venting and your shit, go watch Dr K on youtube

[bronze jay]

I'll consider it. Thanks for the advice anyway. I get it

No offense taken, and this isn't the place to be venting

[gusty wagon]

I see that we now agree

[bronze jay]

I'm just glad you caught me before it got out of hand

I hope SignalRGB comes to Linux one day

I feel like I switched at just the right time, when software support got to a point that wouldn't make me mad

[gusty wagon]

People have done the same for me, so i'd be glad if you would do it for others, too

[sinful cobalt]

I’d like to use signal RGB, but it clashes with my KB rgb

[azure topaz]

7200C30 stable probably 🔥

[bronze jay]

I do, but more gently than you, not that you did anything wrong

[bronze jay]

?

[sinful cobalt]

It locks my keyboard’s RGB where its just purely 1 colour

[devout oxide]

We’re so cooked bro

[bronze jay]

You can turn it off

[devout oxide]

The economy

[sinful cobalt]

I have a lightbar indicating how much I press down on a key like throttle

[bronze jay]

I disabled my keyboard from the software

[sinful cobalt]

didnt work, only option is to entirely close

[bronze jay]

Weird. It worked well for me when I was on windows

[sinful cobalt]

Wooting stated themselves, signalrgb clashes with saved wootility settings

[gleaming rose]

i have just successfully cracked another program by myself :3

[sinful cobalt]

I tried signalrgb to control the mobo rgb but

[gleaming rose]

the end result is sexy photos like this

[sinful cobalt]

it also locks the kb rgb

[gleaming rose]

and this

[latent gull]

I thought that was a cat in the leaves :(

[bronze jay]

I think what I did was go to the keyboard in the GUI and "turn it off"

[gleaming rose]

jumpscare

[sinful cobalt]

I tried, but for some reason theres 2 exact same keyboards, I turned both off and it didnt do jackshit

[latent gull]

Mines not fancy but it is a funny picture

[tidal trail]

9070xt or 7900xt

both roughly $650

[gusty wagon]

Protecting oneself comes first, we're all out of time and this is how we find how it all unwinds

[sinful cobalt]

Power efficiency, raytracing, better encoder, upscaling(FSR4)go 9070XT

More VRAM=7900XT

[tidal trail]

hmmmm

[wheat field]

Get the 9070xt

[tidal trail]

whats your reasoning

[wheat field]

I had a 7900xtx and got a 9070xt. It's a better GPU

[tidal trail]

uh

more context please?

[wheat field]

From my perspective it's way more stable. Up to you but as someone who uses both I'd say get the 9070xt

[tidal trail]

hmm ok

[ornate stirrup]

does this look like normal temps for my CPU under 100% load?

[tidal trail]

cause 7900xt is used but avaliable but the 9070xt i would have to wait but similar price

[wheat field]

It's about 10 percent off in raw performance but you get more quality of life

[tidal trail]

yea like fsr4 and what not

[wheat field]

There's literally no reason to ever consider a 7900xt over a 9070xt

I misread and thought you said xtx. Just get the 9070, this isn't even a question tbh

[frail delta]

• Price
• Availability

[wheat field]

My bad, besides that which doesn't matter in this case there's never any reason to consider the 7900xt over a 9070xt

[sinful cobalt]

But if you somehow win the silicone lottery like debauer (forgot the actual name), the UV can punch the 5080 assuming the game isnt that biased towards either brand

[wheat field]

That won't happen.

[tidal trail]

alright ill wait for a 9070x

[sinful cobalt]

https://youtu.be/BtQ8jF3I0Zw?si=i0hZWKFckVL56l6b

[tidal trail]

im so mad now cause my friend siad there was a open box 9070xt

[wheat field]

Sorry, I misread your message and thought you said something else. I'm working at the same time

[tidal trail]

and he couldve added a discount making it like $550

[sinful cobalt]

It was in CP that the 9070XT punched the 5080 by 1 fps

[wheat field]

I thought you meant for the 7900xt.... I'm recommending the 9070xt. I have one, great GPU.

[sinful cobalt]

o lol

[wheat field]

So you did say the stupid thing I thought you did

Please don't do that to me, my poor brain.

[wheat field]

Just get the 9070xt and enjoy.

[sinful cobalt]

maybe its due for a bios update fr

[wheat field]

It's due for coffee.

[sinful cobalt]

How many cups a day

If u drink too many the body builds resistance against caffeine

[wheat field]

If I'm working like two

[tidal trail]

yea ima just have to wait for it to pop up

[wheat field]

If I'm not working never

Coffee, if I don't have a task, makes me panic

I get that sense of impending doom thing

[sinful cobalt]

Power

[wheat field]

Where are you based

[wheat field]

Hold the phone

[tidal trail]

cali

[sinful cobalt]

watwhy

[wheat field]

Japan?

[sinful cobalt]

china

[wheat field]

I live in Shanghai!

[tidal trail]

dope!

[wheat field]

Had to check, same symbol sometimes

You live here Alex?

[sinful cobalt]

yep yen and yuan are fkin similar

Nope Im from Singapore, bought from taobao importing here

[wheat field]

AHHHHH I was just there!

There for work. Taobao is dope

[sinful cobalt]

this is actually the cheapest 9070xt option rn compared to local

idk abt other models from taobao

[wheat field]

Got mine launch day in Hong Kong for below MSRP

Took a plane from here and came back with a gpu lol

[sinful cobalt]

I got my 5070ti Aero but Im selling to recoup cash and go 9070XT instead

[wheat field]

Saw three in a tech mall in Bangkok for MSRP

about 4400 redmimibeans

[sinful cobalt]

After the MSRP went by for the 9070XT, almost every model is now $1200 SGD compared to the 1K SGD MSRP

[wheat field]

ew. Just take a short flight to BKK and grab one lol

[sinful cobalt]

Red devil’s sitting at 1350 range, and Asus is a big offender by hitting almost 1400 with their Prime model

which is another reason why Im now “racist” against asus

[wheat field]

Signapore was nice, good food. You guys ar ealright

[sinful cobalt]

like if u mention asus ill deadass say asus bad

[outer marlin]

why is userbench marks so hated?

[wheat field]

It's biased against AMD

The guy who made it is a tool

[sinful cobalt]

technically true but I need to take out of the box or I’ll get hit by GST

[harsh whale]

4070S or 9070?

[sinful cobalt]

9070

[wheat field]

Meh, take it out and wrap it and throw it in your luggage

[harsh whale]

Mmm

[wheat field]

I've brough back stuff from all over

[sinful cobalt]

maybe I’ll try if I ever go Thailand, thanks for the suggestion!

[wheat field]

No worries. Locals can't afford them as easily so you'll see them around there

[sinful cobalt]

Ill see if I can check it out for a 6090 (for funi number) in the future

Bcs in SGP now a 5090 after currency exchange and taxes accounted for, its 3k USD which is x1.5 the msrp

So I think I might try to avoid the SGP taxes

[wheat field]

You could opt for the 5090-D if it's just for gaming

[sinful cobalt]

I’d also need to import that

But im not getting a 5090

Im dedicated to getting the 6090 :V

Mala Max Spicy on a Rainy Day feels like you just overrode lava into extremely cold ice

[random gyro]

i want a 6090 , doubt it will be available, ever

[sinful cobalt]

I plan to get a 6090.

In 2029 that is :V

after army

maybe 2030 tbh but yea

[random gyro]

i never see it depreciating , like once it goes old it will be a collectors item for sure

[sinful cobalt]

yep, bcs funi number

[random gyro]

yep and if that was planned and they pull it off oh my

[sinful cobalt]

Ill prob cop one after it gets announced for discontinuation

im not buying at launch bcs those prices are abysmal

[random gyro]

right plus it's gonna be in demeans even if it's awful like that number will sell even if it's a brick

like i'd probably buy an official nvidia 6090 brick so long as it was like authenticateable lol

[sinful cobalt]

before the 4090 ended production, it was $3k SGD

now a 5090 is going upwards of 5k

[random gyro]

if i wasn't against scalping

my micro center seems to have a solid supply

[sinful cobalt]

In SGP theres alright stock of 5070 series and 5080 but shops still have stupid prices

[random gyro]

5070s are easy to get no one wants them

[sinful cobalt]

They are, but my fellow countrymen still think they are slick selling 4070 supers for brand new 5070 prices

As well as 4080s for brand new 5070ti prices

[random gyro]

if that's the worst your countryman do lol oi vey

[sinful cobalt]

Even the 4080 with no warranties think they are slick going for 1500+ while a new 5070ti goes for 1400 for “MSRP” models

[random gyro]

i paid 900 for my 7900xtx brand new day of the 5090 launch , no one thought to ask if they were in stock apparently

a little more cause i got the warranty so i can just um return it for getting slower for full credit , i love micro center for that

[sinful cobalt]

My friend traded his 5070Ti Eagle SFF for a 7900XTX Nitro+ which imo is a steal considering the XTX was actually just sitting on the shelf with still 2y warranty

But he has all that raw performance for a 1080p screen. Im still waiting for him to make the jump to OLED

[random gyro]

that is a steal , the xtx is still what like fourth or fifth top dog?

[harsh whale]

Should I trust technical city on this?

[random gyro]

my next big move is an oled i'm on a xg27wcns it's the bottle neck

[sinful cobalt]

in pure raster the XTX is fighting for 3rd against the 5080

But it is pretty tied to the 4080 class and the 5070Ti

[random gyro]

yah i'm happy , the 50 series is just 40 plus ai and 1 mythical card

[sinful cobalt]

9070XT with a W silicone lottery UV definitely is also fighting for 3rd

[random gyro]

i feel like i got better buy w my xtx cause of the 50 nonsense

9070xtx , come on amd, read the room lol

[sinful cobalt]

i think for navi 48 the XT is the max they decided to push this gen

[random gyro]

in the words of amd "we are not used to selling graphics cards"

self awareness at its finest

[sinful cobalt]

This gen was more onto architectural improvement and catchup in efficiency and RT to gain market share

[random gyro]

sounds like they are jumping to soc

in theory soc will kill much of the dedicated gpu market

[sinful cobalt]

And I think they staved off trying to make a XTX to fight the 4090 and invest into catchup first since next gen I think they are using CUDA

Leaks are suggesting it to be called UDNA

but that was few months back

[random gyro]

their processor line is also in full slay no mercy mode

i heard udna not really concerned warships is pretty enough for me

[sinful cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/mem-hsr-mem-honkai-mem-honkai-star-rail-stelle-hsr-stelle-honkai-star-rail-gif-3188338759681492385

[random gyro]

like really who needs a 9950x3d

[sinful cobalt]

AMD this generation on both ends were literally just architectural improvements

[random gyro]

mostly they lucked out w nvidia and intel both yeeting* themselves

[sinful cobalt]

9000 series CPUs are more efficient
X3D now has overclocking
The half normal half X3D ccds were optimised so it wouldnt lose to pure X3D chips in gaming

Intel fumbled their core ultra but massively shook the budget market with the B580

Nvidia fumbled the consumer market this generation, being on the AI leash

Im gonna invest in both AMD and Intel

[random gyro]

oh it's beautiful i wish i had waited but is just a 9800x3d w 8 extra cores for when you are not gaming

[kindred halo]

9040S

[random gyro]

nvidia focused on musks ai lab , lost sight of the non mining crowd

[sinful cobalt]

its both a gaming and productivity beast that buries intel CPUs 7ft under the ground

This is like seeing a 200-300HP car dominating in corners against 600HP beasts

[random gyro]

yes yes i can play games then do excel to track my deficit

[sinful cobalt]

AMD cpus on laptop are hella efficient but over here the market still has a lot of intel options

Comparing the 7435HS or smth to the 210H, both are pretty similar fps wise but AMD ran more efficiently and with a lower temp than the 210H

[limpid dune]

I mean, AMD CPUs arn't competing against Intel anymore, they're competing against Apple

[wheat field]

They're winning then

[peak knot]

Cool, this works better than I thought

I can now know the capacitance of any capacitors I find roughly even if they are not marked

[wheat field]

what if they're marked

[peak knot]

I can verify they are still good and within their spec

[wheat field]

What if their name is "mark" and they get called a "worm" by a guy called conquest

If you can measure that, I'll eat my hat.

[random gyro]

screenshotthis chat and send it to the developers of said scope , see if they are bored

[wheat field]

Imagine they figure out how to measure Mark Grayson

"no, not mark"

[drifting tundra]

Thoughts on upgrading from a 5900x to 9800x3d for 1440p gaming?

[wheat field]

I mean, sure if you want. Cheaper options

[drifting tundra]

How so? 5900x vs 5800x3d for am4 doesn’t sound great. But how do the other chips work? I feel fomo over not getting top of the line since I’m running a 4090 and a 360hz monitor

[wheat field]

7800x3D is cheaper than a 9800x3D, no?

[drifting tundra]

Think the 7800x3d is still great?

[wheat field]

heck a ryzen 5 7600x wouldn't even be that bad

[drifting tundra]

Genuinely curious

[wheat field]

for 1440p with a 4090? ya.

What games are you playing?

[drifting tundra]

I just can’t find a benchmark that shows 5900x performance
Playing Fortnite, hunt (the one who’s performance troubles me the most), warframe, spiderman, all sorts of games tbh

[frosty prism]

is a 14600kf better than a i7 12700k?

[wheat field]

I mean dude

With a 7800x3D you'll be fine.

You're not going to get over 240 fps in a lot of games just so you know

You're probably targetting 100-150

[frosty prism]

what combo is this

[wheat field]

4090 with a 7800X3D

I assume cranked settings in newer games.

[frosty prism]

triple a or

[wheat field]

No, double A to power the PC

[frosty prism]

so funny

[drifting tundra]

Well I see what the benchmark YouTube videos do and I think to myself “why do they get like 300+ every game when I can’t break 200 for more than a minute”

[wheat field]

Send these benchmarks

[drifting tundra]

Hmm lemme look at my history

[frosty prism]

maybe tweak and optimize your pc

dont have a million things in the back

[wheat field]

https://tenor.com/view/nothing-burger-gif-8169850044152363414

[drifting tundra]

Ran asus ai to overclock the pc, power setting are set to performance, thought about doing a fresh windows install but idk

[frosty prism]

i have a 14600kf and a 5070 and im getting 150 - 300 in aaa games

dlss enabled

and in shooters 400+

[tawny knoll]

DLSS or settings dropped somewhat

[frosty prism]

(1080p)

[wheat field]

Using dlss for extra frames at 1080p or 1440p is dumb

144hz is more than fine. At that point just enjoy the game

[drifting tundra]

https://youtu.be/SXCfHuFLRIs?si=mXeg027_oL2In9hi
this one for instance I think is 1080 but idk. But I can’t get over 200

[wheat field]

Unless you're a competitive pro fps player or something, I dunno

[wheat field]

that's a 5080

dude he's on low settings

[frosty prism]

why would i not want to go from 80 - 100 fps in ultra settings to 150 - 200

[wheat field]

I'm done with this conversation

[frosty prism]

and theres basically no delay w dlss 4

[drifting tundra]

You’re too impatient… but okay

[wheat field]

You can want that, I don't really care

[wheat field]

You asked "why are they getting such high frames" and they're running it in performance mode

On a different GPU

[drifting tundra]

I did the same but the 4090 and 5080 aren’t even that far off

I have ran performance 1080p and still won’t get better frames

But it’s okay, you are done

[peak knot]

dude i just got done complaining to them about a firmware they pushed to this $500 multimeter

[wheat field]

Did you ask them about Mark Grayson?

[peak knot]

No I was complaining to them about a firmware update that lowered the specs of the multimeter I paid $500 for

[wheat field]

https://tenor.com/view/face-swap-ron-swanson-deep-fakes-sisters-comb-gif-16768448

Do you like this?

[peak knot]

No I prefer to talk to people who take tech chat more seriously

This belongs more in #public-chat

[wheat field]

I think it's a cool use of technology.

[peak knot]

Your just shitposting

[wheat field]

you're*

[peak knot]

How old are you 12?

[wheat field]

You can't be on discord if you're twelve.

Alienware monitors are kinda cool

[peak knot]

You’d be surprised how often I’ve been answered yes to that question

[wheat field]

Suprisingly cheap second hand

[limber nacelle]

happened the other day lol

[peak knot]

Alienware monitors are just dell rebadges and are usually lower quality compared to other gaming monitor manufacturers

[wheat field]

I had dimsum today

[limber nacelle]

here, I mean

[limber nacelle]

fuck you I could go for some rn

[peak knot]

Not surprised

[random gyro]

answered like a 12 year old

[wheat field]

I'm fine with that if it's cheap

[wheat field]

Why do you want to talk to a twelve year old so badly?

[limber nacelle]

ehhhh dell has good warranty on their monitors tho so they can't be all that bad

[random gyro]

they are more expensive dell monitors for a logo

[peak knot]

Alienware hasn’t really been good since dell bought em out like 18 years ago

[wheat field]

secondhand

[random gyro]

this is an important known fact

[wheat field]

I live in a place where tech is very cheap

Especially second hand

[random gyro]

cheap isn't impressive

[wheat field]

It's impressive for how cheap it is...that's what I was saying.

[random gyro]

frugal is what you are meaning

[wheat field]

hi cheeseburg

[limber nacelle]

[limpid dune]

is it a cryptography accelerator or something?

[peak knot]

Sort of

[left dove]

is it a logic analyzer in a pcie card

[edgy holly]

[peak knot]

I wish

um definitely skynet

[limpid dune]

please do not train LLMs on xbox live

Cause it was like $30

And cool

[left dove]

train llms on 2010-era xbox live videos from youtube

[edgy holly]

That's bloody cheap

[limpid dune]

$30 AZURE???? I'm buying it

[left dove]

yeah i want one

idk what it means but I feel the burn

oh by the way I slapped an HD6450 in a rig and it games on linux

not well, mind you

I unplugged the GPU fan header because I want it to be quiet 💀

Could I put a 9950x3d (if I could find one) into a b650e-e board or would I need a different cpu?

[left dove]

b650e-e

[azure topaz]

probably yeah

no reaspon why not

yes

[plush wren]

absolutely!

[azure topaz]

yknow you coulda googled that and looked it up yourself though

instead of making me do it

you woulda had to type less even

[limpid dune]

yooo I should pair my HD6450 with my 7900X3D

will it bottleneck?

[azure topaz]

crazy that even that things igpu is faster

Oh. When does it get released for folds. I got s24 so i got it yesterday but there is few things that i am kinda mad about

[orchid lintel]

are there any phones that are thick like a brick but provide many more features than today's phones
I kinda hate the thin like glass feature tbh

[next adder]

1. Camera app is too cluttery/weird there should be a customizion option. 2. On the quickpanel there is 4 kinda useless buttons for me at least and you should be possible to remove them or resize/change them like nearby devices modes and those i dont need big buttons for those they take space

bestbuy is predictable if you get one of the first drops

[tidal trail]

huh?

[cedar hollow]

they always do drops on the hour

if they drop then its almost certain theyll do a couple more drops after that

[tidal trail]

ohh ok sounds good

[charred sundial]

Sorry... (I don't like cheese)

[bleak ledge]

There's a local place that's charging the equivalent of $4500 for a used FE one

This case is solid if you like it

[rigid fjord]

i'd get a phanteks xt pro instead tbh

[wicked spruce]

i like it but idk how the airflow is etc

[wicked spruce]

how come?

[south arrow]

With exhaust at the top/back should be fine, and just cosmetics mostly if I had to guess (that and rauko doesn't like corsair ram/cases*)

[rigid fjord]

much more airflow

[wicked spruce]

hm

[rigid fjord]

i like corsair's cases, but that solid glass front is .....

[wicked spruce]

whats wrong w it?

i really like the clear glass on the side

[south arrow]

That's fair, if they're priced right

[uneven plover]

What do you guys say, Wait for my preorder of 5090 Xtreme Waterforce, or cancel? I've done a new PC build recently and upgraded from 2080 Ti to 4070 Ti Super

[south arrow]

It's just not as efficient as air being pushed in a straight line in and out vs being pushed into glass then sucked out. But temp wise shouldn't be more then few degrees diffrences, if properly setup

[wicked spruce]

does it matter if i have a rtx 2060 and ryzen 5 3600

[uneven plover]

Basically preordered 5090 first but since I've done a new PC build, I've had to have a new GPU in the meantime, so got 4070 Ti Super, which is pretty good but don't know if it's good enough for Borderlands 4 when it comes out, if I cancel I'll get next gen GPU

[rigid fjord]

nope, totally fine combo, if you do upgrade, you only need to touch the cpu and wait a while before touching the gpu

[rigid fjord]

cancel, tbh

[hexed tapir]

i would only pay $2k for a 5090

[uneven plover]

They're saying "think about it before cancelling because prices are rising"

[south arrow]

Vamps if you got the money to blow sure, but a 4070 ti can play any title/basic workload blender etc for at least the next 4-8 years. So optionss

[rigid fjord]

that 4070ti will definitiely be enough, way more than enough for it

[south arrow]

Ofc is the 5090 neatttt, yisss

[uneven plover]

But, water and fire and electricity, kinda worrying

[hexed tapir]

5090 is also a 600watt card with a scary power connector

[uneven plover]

Yeah, that latter part...

[rigid fjord]

it's not like any borderland game uses system resources heavily enough, hell borderlands 3 on my 5600x + rx590 plays so well it easily holds 100+ fps @uneven plover

[south arrow]

Just kekin coopas ❤️

what monitors do yall run

[south arrow]

I can't talk about it or I'll get roasted

[uneven plover]

You're playing on 1080p probably, I play on 4k, there's a difference

[wicked spruce]

W flex

[south arrow]

Oled 240 hz 4k is the way rn if you can find it in one's range, I'm rocking. A 165hz 2k*

[rigid fjord]

and that's not including it's transient spike tbh

[uneven plover]

Borderlands 4 is using UE5 which will be even worse

[rigid fjord]

5090 with it's transient spike = easy 750w

what is USB C, USB A, USB B?
What are the micro and mini versions of each

[south arrow]

All game controllers from the ps3 to ps5*, Google is ones friend for this one

[rigid fjord]

there's only mini and micro versions of usb B

[uneven plover]

maybe only DLSS will allow me to play with decent graphics, hope they don't fall behind this stuff, they are known to not care about optimizations and adding such features when they come out 😦

[elder quarry]

[rigid fjord]

also, if you just google usb connectors, you'll see them all @orchid lintel

[south arrow]

Alie express has a 10 in one that's awsome for like 1 or 2 dolla holla

[orchid lintel]

USB A too has them?

[rigid fjord]

only just saw them in the pics now, but you'd have a hard time finding anything that would use them

[south arrow]

What sparks this curiosity by chance?

[orchid lintel]

do old phones use micro A or micro B?

[south arrow]

Lol gonna need to be specific

[rigid fjord]

older androids would be micro b

otherwise, much older phones had propriatery connectors

[south arrow]

Brb I gotchu

[orchid lintel]

im making a fictional story where a 2 inch thick phone has every port(male and female of each) in the world

[south arrow]

https://a.aliexpress.com/_mKbvfeL

[orchid lintel]

yeah so on old phone charges, the cable is micro B (male) to USB A (male) right?

[south arrow]

https://a.aliexpress.com/_mPBQMUx

[elder quarry]

That make will snap off immediately

[south arrow]

Between those 2 that covers 99% of use cases

[rigid fjord]

there is a reason this came out

[orchid lintel]

holy shit lmao

[orchid lintel]

so every phone used its own standard ?!?!

[rigid fjord]

like i said, it was propriatary

even nokia had a different connector if you was going to use data with it

1 for charging, 1 for data

what are those tv ports called on old tv's
My tv has them, its 10-12 years old samsung
It has circular yellow white and red ports on back
(i can be messing up the colors)

[south arrow]

Audio video or AV

[orchid lintel]

rca got it

[rigid fjord]

so you got multiple rca's primarily composite, component and audio, sata data, rj45 (ethernet), multiple usb A's and B's, s-video, mini usb b's, micro usb b's, firewire, dupont connectors for pc headers, 3,5mm 3 pole jacks, 6.25mm jack (also known as a quarter inch jack) rj 11/rj12;s for phone line and i forgot the power connector

[orchid lintel]

i want all this on a single device

[rigid fjord]

red + white = audio only for rca, red white and yellow = composite for rca, red, green, blue = component for rca's

though tbh, rca's other name is phono jack/socket

[rigid fjord]

that's called a dock

[clear oasis]

Holy shit

[short osprey]

anyone ever have their aio push against the motherboard heatsinks?

building my first pc and this is concerning

[south arrow]

Can you put it more flush with the front panel? Or no space left? Every cm counts

Touching lightly is fine though typically I'd have to see it to know fs

[sinful cobalt]

I remember dealing with this shit when I was still single digit age

[short osprey]

no my case only supports a 240mm and i got just that , as for how much its pushing i have to push it to be able to screw in the aio , otherwise only one side (glass panel side) would be screwed in

[elder quarry]

What happened lol

[orchid lintel]

what is AIO and aio shield

[short osprey]

AIO is an all in one (cpu cooler) an i/o shield* is a piece of metal that protects your ports on the back of the pc

[uneven plover]

AIO is all in one, usually talking about watercooling systems that have everything connected

[short osprey]

this is an AIO

[rigid fjord]

nope but but it might hit the top of a heatsink

[short osprey]

this is a i/o shield

[uneven plover]

AIO is not limited to CPU btw 😛

[limpid dune]

biblically accurate peripheral cable

[short osprey]

could also be for gpu but thats a lot rarer

[orchid lintel]

ok

[uneven plover]

huh? They're plenty

[orchid lintel]

what r these

[short osprey]

rarer generally cause its for much higher budget builds

[south arrow]

All in one cooler for gpu but that's for more advanced users and not not recommended personally. You take apart your gpu to fit the custom blocks*

[uneven plover]

GPU's like what I mentioned earlier that I preordered (And cancelling now) 5090 Xtreme Waterforce is also using AIO, so?

[orchid lintel]

is there a way to cap my clockspeed?
Gigabyte a320m s2h BIOS doesn't let me do it on a Ryzen 3 2200G

[uneven plover]

You mean after the AIO unit fails you have to take apart the unit and put a custom block eh

[south arrow]

That's a good point if out of warranty window yiss

[sinful cobalt]

its in the name so yes

[sinful cobalt]

its typically alot more expensive than normal air cooler

[abstract wigeon]

ive just realised how fucked up the wii u pro controller layout is

[mortal mantle]

I do lol

also why did my phone decide to de-knox itself (everything that uses knox broke)

[rigid fjord]

nope, the aio's block is custom to the gpu when it comes to the eiswolf

[uneven plover]

What? eiswolf?

[rigid fjord]

not rare at all, eiswolf's are common, though more for higher end gpu's, they're also adaptable to be able to be made part of a full custom loop using them

[rigid fjord]

alphacool eiswolf, it's alphacool's line of aio's for gpu's

[uneven plover]

Oh well, the only watercooled GPU I could have had is now cancelled (order)

[rigid fjord]

https://shop.alphacool.com/en/shop/cpu-gpu-aios/gpu-aio/?currency=5

[uneven plover]

Not sure if it's worth it anyway even though it's cooler supposedly, I'll get the 2nm GPU's

[rigid fjord]

all alphacool aio's use standard g1/4 fittings so you can customise them or combine them into a custom loop

[uneven plover]

There's some news lately about the 2nm so might be coming up to next gen, should be better, and I want the connector problem to be fixed ultimately

[rigid fjord]

it'll never be fixed due to nvidia's own design flaw

[uneven plover]

Well, not really

[limpid dune]

the arc a310 is going for $200 CAD these days? that's INSANE

[uneven plover]

I'm talking about replacing the connector to something else

And AMD started using it as well it seems, so whatever

[rigid fjord]

Nvidia didn't make any design improvements and is now using it for 5090s which for certain AIB variants can exceed 600W. While 4090 is a design downgrade from 3090Ti which had certain protections built-in so that you couldn't cut 5 out of 6 cables and keep the card still running. But this is completely possible on 40 and 50 series - i.e. delivering all the current via single cable until meltdown. It is now consensus of most electrical engineers that Nvidia's design is inexplicable as it leaves no safety margin thus even a slight deviation from ideal scenario can create meltdown or potential fire hazard scenario

[limpid dune]

the GPU market went from bad to abysmal 😭

[uneven plover]

You said it won't ever be fixed, I'm sure it will

[rigid fjord]

replacing the connector would only be a start to fixing the issue, the fact that they removed power balancing and protections from the 40 and 50 series that 30 series had, means that it'll still have issues

[limpid dune]

literally the only reason I can think of is that they're trying to artificially reduce the reliability of Geforce to make them less appealing to industrial users 😭

[uneven plover]

Load balancing should be on the PSU though, no? there's a whole video about it

[rigid fjord]

nope, it should be on the gpu itself tbh

the load balancing should be on the device itself that draws the load

[limpid dune]

yeah, PSUs usually just have bar connections, and PSU load balancing would require the PSU to know exactly which connector the GPU is using ahead of time

[rigid fjord]

rail*

[whole garden]

Have you done anything to the phone? Like unlock the bootloader?

[limpid dune]

tbh isn't it possible to make a little thing that goes in between the card and the cable, that just has a 0.1ohm resistor on each line?

[whole garden]

Hi rauko

[rigid fjord]

the only smart thing about the psu should realistically be ocp, otp, ovp and voltage conversions

[limpid dune]

that would considerably increase vdroop but the GPU power stages shouldn't theoretially care about that

[rigid fjord]

sup dude

[whole garden]

How you doing

[rigid fjord]

not to bad tbh, you?

[whole garden]

Doing good

[rigid fjord]

it could be put into the connector itself yes, though it may make the connector itself a little more bulkier

[mortal mantle]

literally only unlocked BL (because MF was bootlooping still don't know if it was the factory reset or unlocking the bootloader that fixed it)

[whole garden]

Probably factory reset

But yeah, unlocking the bl will trip knox.

[mortal mantle]

funny thing knox is at 0x0 (aka not tripped)

[whole garden]

Hm

[rigid fjord]

the pump can be removed from this and put on a different top so you can directly put it part of a loop, there's also the fact it uses standard g/14 connectors in both the pump and rad, and that it uses a pair of quick disconnects so you could add it to the eisbaer (alphacool's cpu aio)

[mortal mantle]

do Samsung apps check the bootloader status

[whole garden]

Not sure

[mortal mantle]

knox is not tripped so next thing would be if it's checking that

[rigid fjord]

i would get one on the eisbaer aurora's if i ever got an eiswolf @uneven plover

[uneven plover]

Man...

[whole garden]

What phone is it?

[rigid fjord]

instant custom loop, and easily comes with a small reservoir built into the cpu aio's pump

alphacool originally being the only one to have a customisable aio

[mortal mantle]

Galaxy A53

[rigid fjord]

and you could refill the cpu aio any time you like

[tidal geyser]

i know a way to never have to think about that

https://tenor.com/view/air-air-conditioning-_air-perviz-perviz12345-gif-22297632

very very nice

[whole garden]

lol

[rigid fjord]

so do i, straight to the main water connection of your home

[tidal geyser]

that costs money

[rigid fjord]

cheaper than a full custom loop

[tidal geyser]

i just imagine a 80 psi waterloop

[mellow cairn]

Only an idiot would water cool their system

[tidal geyser]

well custom loops are plenty fine, issue just is watercooling for most people is uhm just a waste

[rigid fjord]

#linus moment

[wicked spruce]

is ryzen 5 3600/rtx 2060 viable for casual gaming in 2025? havent touched this thing in years, kinda dont want to spend $1k to upgrade to am5 + new gpu rn

[tidal geyser]

well with linus it makes sense

[mellow cairn]

The main reason to do water-cooling is because it's fun and looks rad

[mellow cairn]

Yes.

[rigid fjord]

yes, quite easily so

[tidal geyser]

i have a r5 3600 and a rtx 2070 max p in my laptop

[wicked spruce]

ok sweet

even on modern triple A titles?

[tidal geyser]

i play cyberpunk and other modern games on it yea

[wicked spruce]

nice, what fps do u get

[tidal geyser]

60-144+

[mellow cairn]

I mean, you're not running at ultra

[rigid fjord]

< did 3600 + rx560, 3600 + rx580, 5600x + rx580 and now 5600x + rx590

[tidal geyser]

up to res and settings ofc

[mellow cairn]

But it's fine to play basically anything

[wicked spruce]

thats not bad at all

[tidal geyser]

my fav pc to build is r5 3600 and rx 6600 and better

[wicked spruce]

im gonna be doing 90% minecraft and indie games lol

[tidal geyser]

can almost downgrade then

but it will be REALLY good for that

can even play with some shaders

[wicked spruce]

i wonder how gta 6 will be

[rigid fjord]

my funniest moment is when i was doing 3600 + rx560 and it did better in a game than someone doing an 5600x + 6600xt at the time

[wicked spruce]

wow

[tidal geyser]

rx 560 is sad tho

[rigid fjord]

on a 2gb vram gpu, 1080p max settings btw

[wicked spruce]

what app?

u have a better cpu than me tho

[rigid fjord]

this is adrenalin, amd's own app for amd gpu's

[wicked spruce]

nice performance

[mellow cairn]

I am thinking about upgrading my server to a board that supports more pcie slots with bifurcation, and a CPU with more cores than my 5600x. That way I can run a VM Apollo host with my 6600xt

[tidal geyser]

this is the reason why i might just stay with my 7940x even tho its hella slow compared to more modern cpus

[sinful cobalt]

im glad im making the switch to amd

[tidal geyser]

2 full x16 slots with lots of others and also nvme slots and so on

only pcie 3.0 tho, but do i really need more

[rigid fjord]

funniest moment ever to do with an r5 3600 + rx560

before multiple updates later

then after a few updates with the same combo

[tidal geyser]

Shit, my laptop just BSOD while I was installing chipset drivers

Well it still works

[jaunty apex]

Lmao

[tidal geyser]

Windows 11 is a pain

[jaunty apex]

Casual windows update failure

[tidal geyser]

It's now a windows update

It's some driver not happy with windows 11

[jaunty apex]

I'm so glad I dont really gotta fuck with that shit much anymore.. I hated managing drivers in windows

[tidal geyser]

Tbf my laptop is more like a desktop then a laptop

[charred sundial]

Bonjour hello

can someone explain intel's new naming scheme to me

[tidal geyser]

They do not have any new one from what I know of

[orchid lintel]

ultra 265k?

[tidal geyser]

tbh i would not call that new

[charred sundial]

Anyone got some game recs

(sorry couldn't find recommendations on my keyboard)

[thin plover]

ready or not

or Minecraft

[charred sundial]

€49.99

[charred sundial]

I alr have that I love Minecraft 😍

I can finally use shaders at a steady 30FPS

[thin plover]

now add a modpack

[charred sundial]

NOOOOO

[thin plover]

I got it for cheaper on a site I can't discuss here

mc modpacks are so much fun

[true stirrup]

Elden Ring

[jaunty apex]

I basically only played modpacks a few months after moving to java

Despite seconds per frame being the case fairly often on that n3050

[orchid lintel]

is 10th gen intel supposed to compete with ryzen 3000 or ryzen 5000

[jaunty apex]

3000 I think.

[tidal geyser]

I should really setup some fun modpack on my server and see if I can get some friends to join

[hollow creek]

apparently ultra's are optimized for work/productivity related stuff, K chips are typically for gaming or a mix of both

[charred sundial]

Shhhh before you get banned

[true stirrup]

K are for overclocking

[hollow creek]

to be honest intel ultra is not that good either for what its intended for lmao

[tidal geyser]

Now a days 10th and 11th gen is just sad compared to ryzen 3000 and better

[hollow creek]

yes and that too

[charred sundial]

Haha!

[hollow creek]

they are advertised for gaming too alongside that

[true stirrup]

Anyone know if buying a B850 motherboard with something like a ryzen 7700x. I currently have an i7 7700k from like 2017. I have noticed some games run really unstable at 1080p on my 3060 12gb. Even when locking framerate. One game is Battlefield 2042. All cpu cores runs at basically max 87-94%. So would you recommend the upgrade in terms of its price compared to like intel and such?

so 11th gen is 3000/4000 ryzen series competitor

[rigid fjord]

you can do that, but you will be buying ddr5 ram also

[orchid lintel]

12th gen is 5000
13th gen is 7000
14th gen is 7000/9000?

[sinful cobalt]

yea u can, for ram go with 6000 CL30

In ur case its simply the CPU not performing in today’s standard

[rigid fjord]

3000 series yeah, though tbh 4000 is a regression in performance where ryzen is concerned

[hollow creek]

eh 14th gen are not that far from 13th, some say its the same

[tidal geyser]

why does OCCT think i have 3 gpus

[sinful cobalt]

13th and 14th are similar af, both are up against 7000

[rigid fjord]

pretty much working out that way

[sinful cobalt]

core ultra is against 9000, both series offering efficiency

[rigid fjord]

tbf, 14th gen was mostly 13th gen refreshes for a while,

[hollow creek]

eh i wouldnt put it that high, ultra 200 series matches 7000 series ish

9000 series is somewhat more efficient, somewhat

[rigid fjord]

loses to 7000 series when it comes to gaming

[sinful cobalt]

I mean in terms of generation vs generation

13 14 and 15 all still get slapped by 7000

9950X3D rn is definitely at the top of the hill

[hollow creek]

eh top of the line ultra still consume 250w no?

it only stays below 100 when gaming

i wouldnt say that is efficient but definitely much better compared to prior

[sinful cobalt]

125w tdp, normal 250w and up to 370w when power unlocked

[orchid lintel]

that's what matters right?

[hollow creek]

also 9950x3D price is a banger compared to core ultra 9

much cheaper

[orchid lintel]

what is power unlocked?
Is it like going super saiyan for cpus

[hollow creek]

depends what you look for

[sinful cobalt]

yea basically

its when u unlock the trigger for the cpu for max power

[hollow creek]

you can get both intel and amd as long as it matches, usually what differenciates them is your budget and their price

also, i guess if you want to save electricity bill?

[orchid lintel]

is there a am5 female to am4 male adapter

[true stirrup]

That's not how it works

[tidal geyser]

XD

female and male XDDDDDDDd

[hollow creek]

female am5 and male am4

[tidal geyser]

OMG

[hollow creek]

thats literally pins to pins even if there is a converter lmao

[orchid lintel]

that's how plugs and stuff are labelled i think idk

[tidal geyser]

O MY GOD DAM ok this is just funny in so many ways

[orchid lintel]

everybody wants to be my enemy

[rigid fjord]

nope

[rigid fjord]

as arris said " finaly intel made an efficient cpu"

[hollow creek]

oh many people says its not safe to bring a fully built pc with you as checked luggage. its actually..... fine
as long as you use original boxes

[sinful cobalt]

they made a efficient cpu based on their standards

9950x3: A jump to the sky takes off towards a dream

[rigid fjord]

their standard is more watts = more efficient

[hollow creek]

450w unlocked 14900K BABY HERE WE GOO

[tidal geyser]

now do 1.6v straight to the core just like intel wanted

[rigid fjord]

11700k when power unlocked = 420w

[orchid lintel]

how to know which way the ram is supposed to go

[hollow creek]

pray, my friend. pray

[orchid lintel]

can dust be conductive in PC and damage it if i let it accumulate over time

[sinful cobalt]

trial and error

[sinful cobalt]

minor dust wont do shit but if its full of pubes then yea it can block the fans

[rigid fjord]

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

[tidal geyser]

uhm yeah its possible but you need a lot of it and so on

[orchid lintel]

2 years of collected dust?

[tidal geyser]

i have had computers with 10

[orchid lintel]

cpu is easy because u know in which way the name is gonna go
idk why they put a marker on its corner rather than on the ram

[rigid fjord]

usually no, it's more an insulator

[sinful cobalt]

How did we go from classifying tanks as male and female variants to fucking slots

(If you dont know, in ww1, tanks were indeed classified as male and female, male tanks had an additional gun, while female tanks were just MGs)

In about 100yrs

[tidal geyser]

what if i had a metal lathe in my room

[rigid fjord]

https://tenor.com/view/morgan-freeman-gif-24496452

[neat ginkgo]

is this bad? 110c on GPU temperature 2 in MSI Afterburner

[tidal geyser]

or polishing metal

[tidal geyser]

gpu?

[orchid lintel]

10 what?
10 years of dust

[neat ginkgo]

7900xtx

[orchid lintel]

i have had double that

[sinful cobalt]

10 centuries worth of dust

[neat oxide]

You can use it to boil water at that temperature

[neat ginkgo]

DOUBLE? seriously? lol

[tidal geyser]

mine did the same but yeah replace it with PTM

[rigid fjord]

then you might have a chance of the forbidden candy floss to float and fry it

[tidal geyser]

yes

[neat oxide]

Candy floss? What is bro on about

[neat ginkgo]

ive done that before with a 2080ti was thinking about doing it for this too

[sinful cobalt]

make some instant coffee, noodles, tea

[orchid lintel]

after cleaning my pc
Should i put the cpu cooler back on mobo and then put it inside case or put the mobo inside case and then install cpu cooler

[rigid fjord]

unlikely unless you touch a mobo directly after polishing metal

[neat oxide]

Water > tea

[sinful cobalt]

i have had a am5 kryosheet sitting for 4 months now

[tidal geyser]

i went from 110c and max of like 300w for my XTX after PTM i did like 90-105c and 450w

[neat ginkgo]

nice

[neat ginkgo]

does it work good

[tidal geyser]

well PCM as in any kinda PCM from thermalright helios to ptm 7950

[sinful cobalt]

sitting outside the pc*

i havent used it lmao

[rigid fjord]

you never heard of this?

[neat oxide]

No

Speak English

[tidal geyser]

it is english

[sinful cobalt]

i just reached the yandere part of bootleg re:zero

[orchid lintel]

what if i only clean fans of my PC and dont clean anything else

[sinful cobalt]

manhwa version

[tidal geyser]

what why

welp i give up, gaming time

[rigid fjord]

normal candy floss

[orchid lintel]

is cleaning anything other than the fans important

[neat oxide]

Thats cotton candy

[orchid lintel]

yum yum yum

[neat oxide]

Ive spoke English my entire life

[abstract wigeon]

can we get a super realistic plants verses zombies reboot but it’s a milsim with trench warfare

[rigid fjord]

no, that's candy floss

[sinful cobalt]

you’re all wrong thats food

[neat oxide]

Just play arma reforger or squad you weirdo

[untold dragon]

nö Zuckerwatte

[rigid fjord]

[orchid lintel]

😭 plz help me
My case is very small and it sucks ass to take out and place in parts

[abstract wigeon]

hop off

[neat oxide]

@sinful cobalt human flesh is a consumable too, shut up

[rigid fjord]

the forbidden candy floss

[sinful cobalt]

i didnt say im against it

its just morally wrong

no, suikerspin

Stop that then, be something better, hell even french is probably better than that

[thin plover]

I accept the German version cuz they also use sugar in the name

[abstract wigeon]

horrid take please quit

[rigid fjord]

technically eating bacon is morally wrong, yet it tastes so good

[neat oxide]

True, the french are much worse

[abstract wigeon]

i think most meats are morally wrong nowadays

[sinful cobalt]

thats if ur muslim lmao

and thats religion wise

[rigid fjord]

show yourself out before you get defenestrated

[abstract wigeon]

bar insects

[neat oxide]

Or Jewish

[rigid fjord]

nope, judaism and christianity it's wrong also

[neat oxide]

Kosher and Halal are the exact same thing

[sinful cobalt]

in nature its all survival of the fittest so technically eating wtv meat isnt wrong

[sinful cobalt]

christianity?

[rigid fjord]

unclean meat

your honour it’s not murder it’s survival of the fittest

[thin plover]

isn't that only in the old testament

[sinful cobalt]

your honour my client couldnt see that the speed limit sign indicated 30kh and not 300kmh

[rigid fjord]

yes/no, it's technically a law of christianity that people either ignore or don't actually understand

leviticus = christian laws in the bible

[sinful cobalt]

if we set religion aside any meat is consumable

also why are we discussing about food now LOL

[abstract wigeon]

as i understand it with christianity you get to DIY your own list of morals and laws

[rigid fjord]

easily

[thin plover]

human meat might be illegal depending on local law

[sinful cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/kamen-rider-zero-one-kamen-rider_01-kamen-rider-vulcan-isamu-fuwa-不破諫-gif-21251166

[rigid fjord]

modern Christianity yes, though there are those that like to follow most of the old ways of it

[rigid fjord]

bush meat also

[neat oxide]

In the US the consumption is perfectly legal, its just illegal to kill for it or to obtain it

[thin plover]

what's that?

[rigid fjord]

there isn't a day when tc1 doesn't turn to food

[rigid fjord]

if i went by country, for africa that can mean monkeys as an example

[abstract wigeon]

idk man i only eat red-40

[thin plover]

so just local wildlife?

[abstract wigeon]

africa’s a continent

[rigid fjord]

yes, but it's mean that quite literally can be harmful for human consumption due to the likes of parasites existing in it, or even the destruction of wildlife breeds

[thin plover]

makes sense

[glad fog]

depends on which book you consider to be canon

[glad fog]

i know dem astronauts inn the 60s were sent to tropical forests and them boys ate lizards

they were hungry

[rigid fjord]

that's technically bush meat, yup

i'vd had crocodile meat, never again, it's like trying to eat water

[glad fog]

i think its south asia or south america where people eat lizards

well not all people of course, but that's something

[low abyss]

Guys I just noticed that a PC I bought from a second hand store has a no name power supply, apparently it has been running great for over a year and even in my 2 months of use, I haven't had a problem. Do I have to replace the power supply to a reliable one?

[abstract wigeon]

i would, nobody is making you

[rigid fjord]

what's written on the psu?

[low abyss]

There is no labels on it, just pure black box

[rigid fjord]

a pic probably would be better, but hmm

[low abyss]

U are just gonna see a black box

[proper gull]

Are you sure the label isn't on the other side?

[rigid fjord]

i would definitely be more tempted to replace it with a more known reliable psu

brand name and efficiency rating does not make a reliable psu btw

[low abyss]

On the 3 out of 4 lateral phases on the box I checked, there was nothing, I haven't checked the other side yet, need to remove psu for that one

[glad fog]

if it runs fine and doesnt sound like a jet engine it's not likely to be a problem at least for now since you havent used it that long.

[iron glen]

hi rauko

[rigid fjord]

sup dude

[low abyss]

Aight, but would it affect other pc components if it fails

Most psu have security mechanism to shut it off when something goes wrong right

[glad fog]

the greatest windows system

[rigid fjord]

it quite possibly can

[rigid fjord]

the fugliest shittiest look

[neat oxide]

Is it turn into IED?

[glad fog]

yeah i cleaned my old psu and it didnt blow up and it too was a shitty one... so when i upgraded my gpu the thing sounded like a dying engine.

[rigid fjord]

most decent ones do, the ones that don't can take multiple parts in a pc out with it

[proper gull]

Or your house

[glad fog]

sticks and stones can break my bones but bombs will never hurt me

[neat oxide]

Send him to Iraq

[glad fog]

send me somewhere on an island in the middle of nowhere and ill be alright

i dont want to be in a desert

[unkempt ravine]

Do people still use constant pressure fittings for water cooling?
my reserator has them, they are still water tight
but i don't think i've seen anyone use them in forever ago

[low abyss]

What's the cheapest reliable psu to buy for a rtx 4060 ti to and i5 13400f
