[gloomy sleet]

you say that like replacement cables are better

[rigid fjord]

either use what comes with the psu, or use ones specifically compatible to the pc

[gloomy sleet]

cable extensions haven’t failed me so far

[rigid fjord]

for corsair, yes, yes they are

[gloomy sleet]

this is the best option

[proud island]

Rate the setup

[rigid fjord]

corsair's own premium individually sleeved cables

[abstract wigeon]

visually they match type 3 for the double wires, single wires and no wires 🤷‍♂️

[rigid fjord]

on the pcie/gpu, sata and perepherials?

[abstract wigeon]

only had a quick check of pcie

[graceful girder]

kryonaut, peak

[abstract wigeon]

ill look at the rest later

[true stirrup]

Not enough monitors/10

[random gyro]

If i got 1 stuck pixel on an new Oled monitor, it schouldnt spread or anything right?

I dont wanna drive to return it just because of that

[proud island]

I know I’m supposed to have 14

They haven’t arrived yet

[high elm]

bro what is this for

trading?

[somber void]

Why do xeon cpus on aliexpress cost like €6 lmao

[true stirrup]

Because they really aren't worth a lot of money

[frail delta]

When they are old*

Most of those chips would be over a decade old, incredibly inefficient and be beaten by a modern i3

[stray cairn]

ex-server

Typical Xeon MSRP went from 10K USD each to 100 bucks each

Mostly due to HPC companies needing to get their old shit out quickly

[bleak ledge]

It would be nice if linking my YouTube Premium to Discord bypassed the relentless ads on embedded videos

[frail delta]

#tech-chat-1 message

[sullen obsidian]

speaking of cpu's on aliexpress, I want this lol

[bleak ledge]

Looks like I'm not the only one frustrated, lol.

[frail delta]

So annoying

[bleak ledge]

I'm surprised they customised it for Valve

[stray cairn]

I mean they also do it for PS4 and Xbox One back then no?

AMD Jaguar? Made by AMD for Sony/Microsoft?

[bleak ledge]

True, yeah

[graceful girder]

the last time mine had a driver update was for windows 8

[somber void]

U have a xeon?

[stray cairn]

Yep

[somber void]

Damn

[stray cairn]

8480+

[somber void]

What do you cool it with

[stray cairn]

Server

[somber void]

Oh

[stray cairn]

But Im now distracted with ARM

[somber void]

Armoury crate is such bloatware its crazy

Keeps asking me for administrator permissions every time I turn on my PC

[stray cairn]

The first thing you should not do when you got an ASUS anything is to install armory crate

[random gyro]

This is a need

[somber void]

Welp i made the mistake

[somber void]

This ain't a car server bro

[random gyro]

Ur new here aren’t u

Nobody talks about tech in tc1 normally

[somber void]

Yes they do??

Tf u sayin

[random gyro]

Cars have tech in them

[somber void]

I mean yeah sometimes people don't

[random gyro]

Nah usually it’s 6 year olds arguing about phones or pc parts

[somber void]

That's tech

[random gyro]

Everything is technology if u think about it !!!

[somber void]

U got a point

[stray cairn]

I fw this shit (I don't drive)

[random gyro]

TS so friggin tuff

[somber void]

THOSE WHO KNOW

[random gyro]

@true stirrup this is still my favorite reel of all time

[somber void]

Lmao

[random gyro]

i switched back to brave browser i forgot how good it is

[somber void]

Why is the GPU tilted like that

[true stirrup]

I got mad just watching this 😭

[rigid fjord]

camera wasn't exactly level at the time, also it's changed a little

fuck yeah

[rigid fjord]

nope, not really

[golden sage]

@sinful cobalt i put a +300 core clock and +1500 memory clock on the PNY 5080 (non OC) using MSI afterburner with a guide on youtube and ran 3D mark, before this my score was 8646 O_O

[kindred halo]

3050 6GB is marginally better than the 2060 because it's a higher first number

[sinful cobalt]

im thinking of getting an aorus master but its still stupid exp

[golden sage]

How much is it?

[random gyro]

W

[sinful cobalt]

fkin 2.5

[golden sage]

that is crazy expensive

[sinful cobalt]

ya maybe ill just bomb it for a 6090

[somber void]

Crazy what an OC can do

[golden sage]

I dont hear the GPU fans revving up aswell, and the temps highest is 75c, my old zotac 3080 would have skyrocketed to like 89c and it would sound like a jet

[somber void]

They are basically the same
Same VRAM
The 2060 is just slightly better

[kindred halo]

Okay I set the bar too low

Mmmmmm
3050 6GB > 2070Ti

[gloomy sleet]

no

[elder quarry]

hell yeah

[gloomy sleet]

3050 6gb is the worst rtx card

[elder quarry]

no

[graceful girder]

why not

[elder quarry]

wahtever, doesn't matter thermal paste is thermal paste

[graceful girder]

true that

im getting aeronaut

[elder quarry]

why npot included thermal paste

[graceful girder]

no included paste

[elder quarry]

what???

buying used?

[graceful girder]

it's an old system that need replacement paste

[elder quarry]

oke

[graceful girder]

indeed

remember that one i told u about?

[elder quarry]

no

once again my memory is just as good as goldfishes memoryy

[gloomy sleet]

nice

[graceful girder]

this one

[gloomy sleet]

goldfish have pretty good memories

[graceful girder]

same tbh

what i do remember is a waste of space in my brain

[elder quarry]

upgrade to ssd

and switch to li n ux

[sturdy carbon]

Hey can anyone tell me how I can generate more fps I have a 4090 and i914900 k only getting 200 fps but I see streams at a constant 400

[elder quarry]

generate

mfg

[sturdy carbon]

What’s that?

[elder quarry]

multi frame generation

ai engine generating fake frames

[sturdy carbon]

Nah won’t work I play cod latency is everything

[elder quarry]

what monitor do you have

[elder quarry]

nvidia claism there's no latency

[graceful girder]

will have to save first

the gpu is coming in like uly so might have time

[graceful girder]

of course

[elder quarry]

do you have 10$

an ssd like 128 gb is 10$

[graceful girder]

i want 512

atleast

lemme check how much actually

[elder quarry]

why? you already have that HDD

[graceful girder]

it's incrediblly slow

[elder quarry]

f ig?

[graceful girder]

btw what are u thoughts on using an 8 pin adaptor for ur gpu

i mean it's more points of failure but is it risky?

[elder quarry]

you mean pigtail pcie conn

[graceful girder]

i've seen people use em in old dell optiplexes

[graceful girder]

wha?

[elder quarry]

wdym

[elder quarry]

what gpu

[sullen obsidian]

those have started more fires than the 12vhpwr connector

[graceful girder]

rx 580

[elder quarry]

if you have no option, those are cheap

[gilded harness]

im going to get a CV650 and a gtx 970, should make more sense than a 1650

i hate acer prebuild so bad

fuck their proprietary psu

shit even wont give me more than a single sata power connector

[graceful girder]

i wish there were more affordable low profile gpu's

[elder quarry]

dam

[elder quarry]

why

[graceful girder]

cuz then i wouldn't need external power

[gilded harness]

i also probably have to use the PSU outside of the pc case but that is less thing to worry about

this is the thing i worry about

why do acer uses 6 pin for ATX connector

or dell or hp

god forbids them from making normal pc 😔

[elder quarry]

that's not how it works

[lethal bay]

buy the cheapest pc you could find and then you’re surprised they cut corners?

[graceful girder]

i mean the gpu's that run on pcie power alone

[gilded harness]

i mean they made other pc with like the normalest parts ever for around the same price

idk why i dont get them

probably this one has better CPU 🥀

[graceful girder]

opened ltt forums cuz someone asked the same thing and it just turned into a debate

[gilded harness]

you can probably find a used rx 6400 for cheapo

[graceful girder]

yea but like...4gb

[random junco]

god forbid a company has fun

[graceful girder]

in what way is that fun...

[gilded harness]

3050 6gb jumpscare

im so close to getting it

but i realized theres 6700xt for the same price

[graceful girder]

💵🚫

[bleak ledge]

This projector looks surprisingly good for an office one from 2012 with a contrast ratio of only 3000:1 and projecting onto a bedsheet.

[gilded harness]

they go like 125 used here

[bleak ledge]

Pretty good score for £60

[gilded harness]

at least theyt are the same price as 1660ti

god bless

[gilded harness]

nvm i could cop a RM750x

[bleak ledge]

That's pretty premium for a prebuilt, lol.

But I guess you can keep it for a decade or more

[sinful cobalt]

nvm I can get it for like 1920 if i buy and import from some shop named grooves inc

[golden sage]

@sinful cobalt I decided to do +375 and +2000 this time, it didnt crash and the result is even higher

[golden sage]

ooo, are you gonna pull the trigger?

[sinful cobalt]

idk i alr have a 9070xt

kinda a waste since theres no vram buff

[gloomy sleet]

paid mods confuse me they took down their OWN MOD DOWNLOAD

weirdest part is they dont actually have copyrights to their own stuff

so they legally cant do this

[steel umbra]

4080 tie super

[gilded harness]

yeah 1 less thing to worry about at least (just in case if i want to install any gpus ever other than 4090 and 5090)

[bleak ledge]

Yeah, 750 won't be enough for those lol

I think a premium 850 can do it, but most people aim for 1000+

[random gyro]

why is my msi afterburner showing no clocks or curve editor ?

[bleak ledge]

Could your card be locked down?

[random gyro]

oh wow nvm i had radeon

yeah i didnt select my 5090 xD

[tidal geyser]

yeeeaa

also cant really OC a 5090

and even then the connector does not like it

[bleak ledge]

I've never gotten lucky with a card

Always become unstable after a very light OC

[tidal geyser]

no shit

unless you are like 30 you have not gotten a card you can do any massive oc on

[bleak ledge]

I don't find the power consumption/performance tradeoff worthwhile anyway

[steel umbra]

undervoltin

[bleak ledge]

I should try that on my CPU

Idles at high 60s

And seems to sit around 1.35 volts

[tidal geyser]

idle is shit

as in do not think about idle

[gilded harness]

the extra $3,000 (100,000) is crazy bro

😭

idk if this ROG tax or whatever it is now

[bleak ledge]

Opportunist tax

[tidal geyser]

the astral is meant to be the air cooled card that costs the most

[sinful cobalt]

ew asus

asus bad

[gilded harness]

5k for a consumer tier card is quite crazy though, at least if not in this economy tho but it is what it is lmao

[random junco]

27" 1440p 180hz 1 millisecond ALL WHITE for £99...

and i bought a 27" 1080p 100hz 5ms for the same price.

[fallow yacht]

if you're indian kinda expected

[gilded harness]

nah i live in SEA, probably the same tho

[fallow yacht]

oh right that's thai

[grave bay]

Ryzen 5 7500F with 4070! we'll have bottleneck issue?

[random junco]

not really

not significant to impact performance anyways

[tidal geyser]

kill me

[grave bay]

Happily!

[tidal geyser]

no shit there will be massive bottleneck issues

[random junco]

vat

[tidal geyser]

yes you heard me

both the cpu and gpu are not even the best

[random junco]

dont get a 7500f

there we go

[grave bay]

Why not?

[tidal geyser]

so some games the cpu will be a bottleneck and in others the 4070

[left dove]

Aaaaaaaa

[bleak ledge]

I miss EVGA cards

[tidal geyser]

cmon the 7500f is like a 5700X3D with some games you can even slap a 4090 with it and not have "bottleneck"

[sinful cobalt]

“bottleneck” is a misused word

7500f is good enough for cpu heavy games

4070 is good for gpu heavy games

both wont hold each other back in their respectively categories

[tidal geyser]

god i love confusing ZTT enjoyers

[random junco]

i love ztt.

[tidal geyser]

good joke

[random junco]

what screen res u on btw

[graceful girder]

proprietary power connectors are awful😭

[tidal geyser]

720p

[tidal geyser]

like what

[fallow yacht]

wassup mate

[tidal geyser]

we are getting a ship in here

[orchid trellis]

Is there an extension cable for the vive wireless adapter?

[tidal geyser]

there it is

[graceful girder]

this damn thing

[tidal geyser]

HAHAHAHA

[left dove]

i aged yesterday

[tidal geyser]

that is just normal usb 3.0

[random junco]

thats what i checked. thats not always right. but thats why i asked your res

[tidal geyser]

well normal normal

[grave bay]

1080p

[random junco]

why tf are u playing on 1080p

[graceful girder]

they put on that damn clip

[tidal geyser]

XDDDDDDDD

[random junco]

with a 4070

[tidal geyser]

to make it easier

[random junco]

come on 1440p minimum

[tidal geyser]

minecraft

[random junco]

roblox

[grave bay]

Hahaha funny

[tidal geyser]

but you were just joking with the screen shots

[graceful girder]

huh, that does indeed make sense

[fallow yacht]

belated happy bday then

Future proofing GPU

[left dove]

[spring tree]

Does anyone use Thermal Grizzly?

[bleak ledge]

As if that isn't the tightest fitting connector in all of computing

[graceful girder]

cute, imma take this

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/crying-cat-sad-cat-me-when-i-dont-get-orod-tickets-gif-13399313231964052110

[spring tree]

I am trying to find a good thermal pad instead of thermal paste :<

[iron glen]

i also fell down that hole

[fallow yacht]

anyways last friday i broke my laptop and then revived it again

[tidal geyser]

PTM 7950 or thermalright helios

[grave bay]

What do you mean?

[random junco]

that calculator is not really a good calculator

[grave bay]

Haa?

[sullen obsidian]

"Future Proofing"

[sinful cobalt]

this is a trash website lmao, u cant calculate bottleneck. Only bad pairings.

[tidal geyser]

no its made to make you feel worse or better about what you bought and that is it

[sinful cobalt]

rtx 3050 6500xt 4gb

bro my brain is not braining

[dapper oar]

is dlss 4 good enough to pick a 5070 over a 4070ti?

[bleak ledge]

I guess that thing can still serve some purposes

[tidal geyser]

welll

[sinful cobalt]

imo yes

[tidal geyser]

the 4070 ti has dlss 4??

[grave bay]

Should I not go for RTX 4070?

[tidal geyser]

no its fine

[spring tree]

Now I just need to find the right size of the pad for a LGA 1700 socket

[sinful cobalt]

wait i legit forgot that dlss4 is backward compatible

[teal sinew]

if theyre the same price then it doesnt make sense to pick the 4070Ti

[random junco]

get 7600x

[teal sinew]

they perform similarly but the 5070 has 4x framegen, dp2.1, and doesnt get locked out features when using display stream compression

[tidal geyser]

you already told him yesterday to go for the 5070

[sinful cobalt]

both cards are equally fked by vram

[grave bay]

Why?

[tidal geyser]

is this dejavu

[random junco]

7500f is shit

[tidal geyser]

WHAT?????????

[sinful cobalt]

shit urself now

[tidal geyser]

ITS Literaly the same cpu

[random junco]

its LITERALLY a 5600x

[sinful cobalt]

stand in the naughty corner

[tidal geyser]

OMG you cant fucking see the difference of a 8

the 8400f is shit

[random junco]

uh

[south arrow]

[tidal geyser]

the 7400f is usable and the 7500f is just a 7600X with a small downclock and no igpu

the 8400f is a mobile cpu with no igpu

[random junco]

no lets focus on the 7500f

its not good for the price

[sinful cobalt]

lets get him his meds

[tidal geyser]

then what is

[random junco]

i did not read the second line.

[tidal geyser]

and yes that is more like a 5600

[random junco]

i think ill just head on over to the naughty corner..

[tidal geyser]

yes

[granite sundial]

does anyone have any experience with north bayou monitor arms? are they any good

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/alerta-gif-5236527704028489034

[random junco]

they look like factory machines

tf is this

[granite sundial]

it will be behind my monitor

also they have black ones and i can just remove the brand sticker

[random junco]

looks like the machines they used at specsavers to determine my eye health

[granite sundial]

https://www.amazon.com.au/Model-Screen-Desktop-Monitor-3-12kg/dp/B0CGQP1WWM? thinking of getting this one for my 32" primary and 27" secondary

[vale reef]

the second steamos 3 releases i never have to touch windows again

[granite sundial]

primary is 6kg

[random junco]

please get seperate arms

[tidal geyser]

why not use bazzite or most linux distors now?

[granite sundial]

yeah its two different arms with one stand

[random junco]

completely seperate stuff cmon

[abstract wigeon]

steamos is cooler

[grizzled frost]

has less features*

[random junco]

"cool" and practical is not the same

[granite sundial]

problem is i have the alex desk with drawers and the cable management thing so the only place i could fit an arm is in the cable management hole

[random junco]

.....why are you trying to put the arm through the hole

[abstract wigeon]

• valve is so big and cool maybe it will inspire even more linux support

[grizzled frost]

Why not grommet mount?

[granite sundial]

theres a hole where i can clamp to just the top part of the table

[vale reef]

valve is valve

whatever they pump out is bound to be good

[granite sundial]

back is a flip up cable management thing i dont wanna have to unmount my monitors just to open it

i also wont be moving it at all so i think i want non gas spring from what i can gather

[mellow cairn]

I have a whole bunch of them, they are great.

[granite sundial]

even with very heavy monitors?

[mellow cairn]

.... They have weight ratings.

[frail delta]

Fuck Google. Don't sign me out of all the accounts when I accidentally sign out of one :(

[junior valve]

lancool 216 is almost as big as the 1000d

[sullen obsidian]

emachines got discontinued in 2013 lol so for those 14 years it was a decent deal

[granite sundial]

i dont think anything is as big as 1000d

[mellow cairn]

No, sign out is sign out. Fuck you!

[left dove]

emachines lasted that long??

[frail delta]

Maybe at least a confirmation?

Or the option to not sign me out of all the things

[mellow cairn]

Confirming you are now logged out. Thx

[granite sundial]

i think 1000d looks stupidly big unless u have dual watercooled gpus personally

dwarfs any gpu it looks dumb

[grizzled frost]

1000d looks stupidly big, full stop.

[junior valve]

9000d

[frail delta]

Why is this a thing, eBay? I can only really think of not-so-legitimate reasons to use it

[granite sundial]

its the same dimensions isnt it?

[junior valve]

samething, different production date

[mellow cairn]

If you are poor

[grizzled frost]

Pretty common that people may want to split payment on big purchases

[frail delta]

Really?

[granite sundial]

or if youre using gift cards

[frail delta]

Why? Getting around credit card limits?

[granite sundial]

like a visa gift card

[grizzled frost]

using debit card + credit card or something

[granite sundial]

or a prepaid card

[tidal geyser]

or card limits

[granite sundial]

yeah ppl buy cars on ebay its not really that surprising

[grizzled frost]

Or if you and a mate are splitting one big purchase

[frail delta]

not-so-legitimate

[tidal geyser]

my main card is just a massive pain as i have a limit of 500$ until something clears

[granite sundial]

surely easier to just have one pay and then transfer

[gloomy sleet]

there are multiple legal things you can use that for

[left dove]

if people have min-wage jobs that get paid bi-weekly, it can be handy to split it into chunks that you can just pay off each paycheck

[granite sundial]

why is it bad

[grizzled frost]

not always the easiest to transfer money

[abstract wigeon]

is this debian

[tidal geyser]

i can have 5000$ on my card but even if i bought something a week ago if its on hold or clearing i cant use my card if i spent around 500$

[mellow cairn]

Toplime doesn't understand being poor.

[granite sundial]

dont u have zelle in america

[left dove]

like I can do it w/ affirm and if I leave autopay on + pay off stuff early, it builds my credit score

[grizzled frost]

no one has it set up

[frail delta]

Apparently not

[gloomy sleet]

minimum wage and bi weekly god damn thats painful

[mellow cairn]

Ubuntu

[granite sundial]

is it that hard to setup?

[left dove]

Welcome to america

[mellow cairn]

In your ivory tower!

[granite sundial]

our equivalent payid literally takes 2 minutes to setup

[grizzled frost]

Takes a bit of time, but not much effort

[tidal geyser]

speaking of being poor i should really try and not become that sooo i should do some stuff

[gloomy sleet]

lmao

[granite sundial]

all u have to do is give them ur phone number and verify phone number

[grizzled frost]

a load of people don’t even know zelle is a thing

[frail delta]

When you say bi-weekly, do you mean fortnightly, or twice a week?

[left dove]

fortnightly

[gloomy sleet]

if im getting paid min wage i wouldnt be able to live being paid bi weekly

[left dove]

Welcome to the modern economy

it sucks ass

[gloomy sleet]

i barely stayed alive on min wage every week

[grizzled frost]

the fact anyone still gets federal minimum wage is crazy

[mellow cairn]

The moral of the story is don't be poor

Step 1: get more money

[left dove]

federal min wage only aplies for federal workers, state min wage overrides

[gloomy sleet]

just be lucky and be born rich

[mellow cairn]

Something something bootstraps

[gloomy sleet]

it isnt that hard to be born rich

[grizzled frost]

And most states abide by the same limit

[granite sundial]

some states have no minimum wage or its lower than federal minimum wage

[left dove]

oregon's $14.75/hr

[grizzled frost]

federal minimum wage sets the floor of minimum wage, states can choose to raise it if they want

[gloomy sleet]

how much even is min fed wage in america

[mellow cairn]

No, it isn't, that's how fed minimum works.

[tidal geyser]

i was about to say, THAT IS A BIT HIGH

[grizzled frost]

7.25

[gloomy sleet]

damn thats nothing

[granite sundial]

no minimum wage as in nothing on state law so their minimum wage is just federal minimum wage

[grizzled frost]

mhm

[left dove]

if we were that fucked a burger would cost $20k alone

[mellow cairn]

You are confused by the tipped minimum wage.

[gloomy sleet]

thats fucking criminal

[grizzled frost]

tip credit minimum wage goes down to like 2.23usd an hour or something

[frail delta]

No, it's actually perfectly legal :p

[granite sundial]

alabama has no state minimum wage, if there was no federal minimum wage the minimum wage in alabama would not exist

[mellow cairn]

Yep

[grizzled frost]

might not be that exact number, but i know it’s the 2.XXusd

[gloomy sleet]

shouldnt be

[gloomy sleet]

the fact i had to tip everywhere i went in america was the biggest culture shock

they get paid barely anything and the food is still expensive

[left dove]

yeah, welcome to our fucked society & economy

[frail delta]

@mellow cairn

[gloomy sleet]

was it even that much when it first came out

[frail delta]

I couldn't find a 16gb m1 air at a reasonable price so i splurged

[granite sundial]

yeah i see ppl in america and i think our restaurant food is expensive

theyre paying more than us for mid chain restaurant food and thats before tax and tip

[frail delta]

$2600? Something like that

[granite sundial]

probably because not that many were sold im guessing

most ppl barely know what ram is

[gloomy sleet]

i once paid $55 for 2 big mac quality burgers and still had to tip 25% so the waitress could eat that night

[frail delta]

Except there was a $150 voucher so I think it is quite a steal

[gloomy sleet]

oh yeah monopoly australian money

[mellow cairn]

Oh I showed you that already

[frail delta]

Aliexpress is the next stop on my shopping spree. Smart blinds!

[mellow cairn]

Anyway fuck yeah single cable desk solution

[south arrow]

Ggs bobmeister

[rigid fjord]

it's meant for XOC use only, otherwise you'd be redoing it every 6 months

[frail delta]

That splitter looks quite good. Most I've used have had a massive joint in the middle which makes them impossible to cable manage

[gloomy sleet]

aliexpress search suggestions has a complete melt down whenever you search for anything remotely specific

[mellow cairn]

Yeah exactly.

Ok I am bed. N8

[frail delta]

Looking at you jaycar

[gloomy sleet]

why is it forcing me to get 10 what is this goofy ass ui

[frail delta]

Because it is not economical to pack and ship a single 60mm spring (at those prices)

[gloomy sleet]

i want one

[edgy holly]

any recommendation for a 60 euro keyboard ? thinking of getting an ak820 pro

[elder quarry]

Break 9 of them and your problems solved

[gloomy sleet]

i have that kb its pretty good would recommend

[gloomy sleet]

atleast ill have backups i guess

[edgy holly]

is it hotswappable ?

[tidal geyser]

i feel pain

[edgy holly]

just in case

[gloomy sleet]

yes

[edgy holly]

also seems like a good kb just wanted to make sure there wasnt anything better

[gloomy sleet]

stock switches (gift switches) are pretty god

if the ak820 max is avalible at that price id get that instead

[edgy holly]

whats the difgferent ?

[edgy holly]

mhm

[graceful girder]

i see, what paste would last longer? is aeronaut alright?

[elder quarry]

lol

[elder quarry]

ptm7950

[gloomy sleet]

hall effect switches

[tidal geyser]

or xm4

[edgy holly]

tf is even that

[graceful girder]

unfortuntely i don't have that kinda money to spend on thermal pad

[elder quarry]

Buh

[graceful girder]

also not available for me

[graceful girder]

lemme check

[elder quarry]

Not a patmste but oke

[tidal geyser]

thermalright helios

[south arrow]

Xm4 or mx4?

[edgy holly]

also on the 820 pro there is a choice between gift switch or flying fish switch

[tidal geyser]

mx4

whoopse

[south arrow]

Just making sures lol

[edgy holly]

whats your recommendation ?

[gloomy sleet]

uses magnets and stuff basically they let you change actuation distance and they arent a 1/0 switch they have actual analog inputs

[edgy holly]

oooooooh

[gloomy sleet]

basically hall effect switches are better for gaming

[edgy holly]

its 60 euro on their website

[elder quarry]

And they have no drift/j

[gloomy sleet]

i personally have the gift switch but id watch sound tests on youtube and stuff to see what you like

[graceful girder]

not seeing it

[elder quarry]

Mx4

[south arrow]

Artic mx4*

[elder quarry]

Ye

[south arrow]

Usually pretty dang affordable

[elder quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-vs-beanbag-catjumping-gif-6100956

[graceful girder]

still nothing

[south arrow]

I gotcha

[elder quarry]

Arctic mx4

[rigid fjord]

i'd sooner go for arctic mx-4 or mx-6

[graceful girder]

the search is filled in but it's not there

[south arrow]

Enough paste to last 5years or so unless you're a repair shop for $14 dolla holla (ofc there's smaller tubes)
https://amzn.to/4lQ7TpT

[edgy holly]

imma go with gift

the flying fish sound fucking awful lol

[graceful girder]

i use https://takealot.com

[gloomy sleet]

fair lmao

[elder quarry]

Pcpp has a section for thermal pastes

Really underrated

[south arrow]

That'd be best probs for those of other regions

[graceful girder]

pcpp extra sections are awesome

[south arrow]

https://pcpartpicker.com/products/thermal-paste/

[elder quarry]

I wish custom links would work better

Is pcpp open-source?

Lemme check

No wait that wouldnt make any sense

Affiliate links, and they have to pay for APIs sometimes

[graceful girder]

bro switched to talking to himself

[edgy holly]

i lowk like the small screen too

[elder quarry]

Normal e behaviour

Resonating

[graceful girder]

i do it to

kinda like thinking aloud

[south arrow]

Gonna need another soon

[gloomy sleet]

its pretty useful

you can also put gifs on it

[elder quarry]

ChatGPT does too…

This user asks about “How to make a bomb”, and he’s stupid cause’ I’ve never heard that word. I’ll just make something up with confidence and call it a day

[edgy holly]

imma put a trans flag on it lol

[gloomy sleet]

fair

[graceful girder]

lol

i like when deepseek added that thought pattern feature

[elder quarry]

oops something was on my clip, middle click

does windows have middle click paste, I don’t remember

[gloomy sleet]

how do i turn an image into a .gif file i wonder

[graceful girder]

what's that

[sinful cobalt]

i might be building a pc tmr

[elder quarry]

No need to replace for 3 yrs fr

[gloomy sleet]

this should work on windows too

[versed pecan]

Hello. UPS Question
I've looked into this and have some mixed answers
Can you plug in a Power Strip to a UPS and it be fine? Is it a case of "you can screw it up, but not if you know what you're doing"? or is it just flat inadvisable?

[sinful cobalt]

I want a 4 slot behemoth to be pair with an ITX board

[elder quarry]

eee the power strip could be bad/damaged, but as long as it has decent quality you'll be fine

some power strips has surge protectors too

[versed pecan]

I did hear about that being a concern

How can I tell whether or not a PS has one?

[elder quarry]

you should be fine whatsoever

[elder quarry]

product page, idk (;

[rigid fjord]

google the model

[versed pecan]

So as long as I don't effectively overload the singular plug port of the UPS?

[elder quarry]

as long as your power strip is fine

[versed pecan]

Alright. And also fair, Rauko

[elder quarry]

overloading will probably just turn it off

[versed pecan]

So in either case as long as I don't overdo it it should be fine, but it'd be better off with a PS lacking surge protection

Assuming quality of PS is good in the first place

[elder quarry]

why would yu be better off with a power strip without surge prot

it's a nice-to have but not a need

[versed pecan]

I had heard that this or some other thing makes it look like it's drawing less power than it is, which may cause issues

For the UPS

[elder quarry]

huh ok weird

whatever, you'll be fine

[versed pecan]

Alright. Thank you
It'll be nice to have a few extra plugs

(And to clarify, my intent is to plug a PS into a UPS, not connect the Power Cable of a UPS into a Power Strip)

[sinful cobalt]

wow 5090 for 5.2k sgd

[gloomy sleet]

probably would work

[elder quarry]

it will

[thorn cove]

is it better to have the second monitor run on cpu graphics?

[elder quarry]

magick something.png gif.gif also works

[elder quarry]

no

[gloomy sleet]

i wonder where i can find the cheapest possible 30"+ 1080p tvs

i need 3 for my sim rig

[rigid fjord]

local charity store

[gloomy sleet]

i want them to be in working condition lmao

[rigid fjord]

they will be numpty

[gloomy sleet]

i dont even think there is a charity shop within a 50 mile radius

[golden sage]

@sinful cobalt i managed to beat the best score set

[elder quarry]

@azure topaz folpa

[sinful cobalt]

do timespy

[golden sage]

Im pretty sure the settings i put will crash though, i only put them that high to get a valid score

[dry sierra]

are these reels accurate where they're comparing 9070xt vs rtx 5080 and the 9070 is almost identical in performance?
Or is there a lot of fuckery involved?

[elder quarry]

reels..

[sinful cobalt]

I have no idea what steroid their 9070XT took (id like to know) but yea apparently it was indeed fighting the 5080 natively

But with the latest driver 5080 is prob back on top

[dry sierra]

hmm okay, I'll do more research, thank you Alex

[azure topaz]

uh what

[elder quarry]

didn't you like have 100th place on like 4090

[azure topaz]

i mean is good job but hw records arent crazy

[azure topaz]

i have like top 80th 3080

[elder quarry]

yeah that's crazy lol

how many are even recorded

and how many in the top are fake

[azure topaz]

probs none

[azure topaz]

big number fs

[elder quarry]

yeah

[golden sage]

I beat the score again

i think thats all it'll go, even a +1 makes it crash now

[sinful cobalt]

sadly I dont do steel nomad lol

i jst do timespy

[sinful cobalt]

yep nvidia cards are voltage limited

[distant frigate]

LOL

[karmic dock]

But will it survive the Steel Nomad stress test?

[distant frigate]

The latency

[golden sage]

How do i do that? Im only using 3d mark demo

[elder quarry]

ah

[golden sage]

I am running time spy now

[karmic dock]

Isn't that available in "demo"?

[golden sage]

Wait isnt this steel nomad?

Or am i missing something here

oh

it crashed on time-spy XD

[azure topaz]

yooo wwe speed testin

[thin plover]

luckily I'm not American

[tidal geyser]

time spy

[tidal geyser]

it ded

[golden sage]

Im just wondering how it doesnt crash on +375core and +2000 memory, no artifacting when gaming too

[gloomy sleet]

thats reassuring

[golden sage]

The timing of these two messages is uncanny xD

[raw trout]

How does a game crash

My pc is oldddd and new games like flight sim that need a dedicated gpu don't crash

[tidal geyser]

by something going wrong

[raw trout]

I have never had a game crash

Unless the hardware is from ,2012

[tidal geyser]

yes you have

[raw trout]

My old lenovo could not run Roblox lol

[tidal geyser]

anyways, things like flight sim tend to be pretty dam stable

[raw trout]

Flight sim threw an graphics related error

[plush wren]

team

[raw trout]

I uninstalled 300 gb off of my hhd that day

Fight simulator is so big it took me 2 days to install it

And I nearly lost power

Good thing I got ups

[frigid blade]

2 days to install it?

What is your Internet speed?

[tidal geyser]

wait why install it

just check for issues with the game files

[swift tapir]

do i have to plug both cpu in or is it just for overclocking

[tidal geyser]

no

[tidal geyser]

not even for that

[swift tapir]

ok

[tidal geyser]

yet to see a am5 cpu doing 400w on normal cooling

[frigid blade]

What is under the square shaped thing

[tidal geyser]

wat

[strange atlas]

1 is enough

[frigid blade]

Never seen that

[tidal geyser]

what

[frigid blade]

It is just plastic for looks? Bottom-ish right

[tidal geyser]

?

[frigid blade]

No, the big square that says gigabyte on it lol

[swift tapir]

its to get the gpu out

[frigid blade]

Yes

[tidal geyser]

omg

have you only looked at like HIGH end motherboards all your life

[frigid blade]

Yes

[tidal geyser]

that makes a lot more sense

[tidal geyser]

that is the chipset

[strange atlas]

My cousin bought an 9070xt but it keeps crashing when playing games should we return this card could it be faulty card

[tidal geyser]

ddu

[frigid blade]

It was a joke, but recently I’ve only been able to look at higher end because I needed specific things

[strange atlas]

But he says its always crashes when patch tracing and fidelity/ intel super sampling is on

[strange atlas]

i already did that

[tidal geyser]

tried not doing that

if its a intel cpu turn off the igpu

[strange atlas]

i mean he likes to play cyberpunk thats why he bought the card

[strange atlas]

its 7500f

[tidal geyser]

i dono then

[strange atlas]

othervise its less then 40 fps

[tidal geyser]

well yea if its in MAX MAX

[strange atlas]

yeah thats why fidelity or intel thing is must

[tidal geyser]

make it look almost as good and have 3X the fps

[tidal geyser]

its not

[strange atlas]

thats why we are wondering if we should return the card

[tidal geyser]

a lot of the time medium if you chose things right looks almost as good as max max in a lot of games

[strange atlas]

he is perfectionist unfortunately he gotta see everything maxxed in settings

[elder quarry]

hi

[tidal geyser]

so buy a 5090

[strange atlas]

so should we return the card

[strange atlas]

doesnt have a budget

[elder quarry]

use Linux

[frigid blade]

Then he can’t be a perfectionist

[tidal geyser]

try making a post in https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1027757333117415424

[frigid blade]

If you wanna be able to run max everything you need the GPU resources for it

[elder quarry]

unlimited budget or what

[frigid blade]

Well, on anything over 1080p

[elder quarry]

eh I odn't think a 5080 can run maxed on cyberpunk 1080p

nicely

[strange atlas]

done
#1366083699778519101 message

[strange atlas]

enough budget* my bad

[strange atlas]

its 1080p

[elder quarry]

tehn he isn't perfectionist

where's the QD-OLED

[strange atlas]

at his side he is 😄

Like he paid more for his psu more then twice his cpu cost also case costs around that

[brazen sinew]

hi sim

[brazen sinew]

could you help me in my tech support channel?

[frigid blade]

Bro, what PSU?

[tidal geyser]

o its you

[brazen sinew]

ye

[tidal geyser]

did you manage to get the 8350 working

[strange atlas]

MSI MPG A750GF White

[brazen sinew]

no, my phone scammed me and logged me out of my amazon account so I tried going to my gmail to get the code, but then randomly my phone signed me out of my gmail so I couldn’t get my gpu i ordered for like a couple days, but I think I can finally get it today. I just need help replacing the motherboard, because I looked online and I don’t think my current one can do a 3050

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/consequences-cat-gif-6581548611274851813

[tidal geyser]

it can

fyi you can even but a 5090 in it

[strange atlas]

does gpu artifacts show on screen if you take ss

[thorn pewter]

Huh

Wym take ass lol

[strange atlas]

Oh shoot i meant screenshot

[strange atlas]

this one any idea?

[tidal geyser]

yes

[brazen sinew]

well I wanna try with the other motherboard because it looks like it’s more clean and it looks like it’s newer and I don’t wanna be stuck with a fucking 2011 motherboard with like a 2020 gpu

[strange atlas]

thank you

[tidal geyser]

well the other one aint a lot better

[brazen sinew]

ok

Is there a motherboard I could get for like 130-150, that’ll get me atleast 100 frames?

[tidal geyser]

but yeah its not harder then screw out all the screws then put the better board in then screw it in

[tidal geyser]

you would also need a cpu

and ram

[brazen sinew]

Idk if I have any storage or ram, I can’t tell the difference

[random junco]

i want this irl 💔

[edgy holly]

any recommendation on something similar to the ak820 (same gift switch or something really similar) but with in 75% (with the debut, pg up and down and all the stuff yk)

[true stirrup]

Buy it

[brazen sinew]

Even I know this is bad 💀

[random junco]

good idea.

[strange atlas]

are these normal?

[clear canyon]

I bet it's a 2nd or 3rd gen i5 with no gpu

[random junco]

you are judging a book by its cover

[tidal geyser]

its not artifacting

[brazen sinew]

bitch it’s a 190 dollar pc wtf do you expect

[clear canyon]

Na

[tidal geyser]

XD good joke

[elder quarry]

Is that red lines on your monitor???

[tidal geyser]

anybody who works with used shit or in a office knows how shit that is

[hybrid acorn]

What are the requirements for the regular role?

[edgy holly]

apparently the ak873 is similar but amazon is being an absolute shit head and refusing to tell me what switches it uses

[strange atlas]

no this is ss but there are blank spots on the game i dont get it

[clear canyon]

They make good mc servers or basic office pcs, but that's it lol

[tidal geyser]

welcome

[brazen sinew]

ong, I used to use like these 2012 Windows 10 all in one ThinkPad something computer at school

[tidal geyser]

ehhhh

the 2nd one not anymore

well at least for a few more months

[clear canyon]

Make account for forum then link that account to ur discord

[hybrid acorn]

Ahh makes sense

[random junco]

just because its 190 doesnt mean it bad, "bitch"

[clear canyon]

If you can get one for a cheap price, it will work fine as long as you stay conservative on the mods

[random junco]

and i know it is bad i was just saying "bitch"

[clear canyon]

190 is alot for that pc tho 🤣

[tidal geyser]

i have seen em go for 50

i think i even sold one for 50

[brazen sinew]

Well that was very unnecessary

[brazen sinew]

i know what a good pc looks like aswell

this is just my first time building one

Motherboard doesn't really decide it too much

[brazen sinew]

should I swap my cpu for my current one in the current motherboard?

[true stirrup]

A motherboard doesn't really contribute to any additional performance unless it has very shitty VRM heatsinks/no heatsink

[kindred halo]

What CPU(s) do you have

And Boards

[lone cedar]

I fumbled TWICE

[kindred halo]

Fx 8350?

[brazen sinew]

pretty sure

[kindred halo]

The 4770 is better

Also, if you don't already know, they don't both fit on the same boards

[fickle ivy]

Is there a way to have a photo/video on my device without it being backed up to Google, my storage is full so I wanna take some big videos I have off of Google but keep them on my device

[brazen sinew]

yeah I know that’s why I’m trying to swap out my motherboard

[kindred halo]

What board do you have for the 4770

[brazen sinew]

z87 plus

[elder quarry]

Sarcams

[kindred halo]

That's a pretty good board oh wow

[elder quarry]

Oh god

[kindred halo]

Okay well, what issue are you having even?

[kindred halo]

It's not bad for the price if it's a 9400/9600

[brazen sinew]

i can’t find all the screws on my current board to take it out and replace it

[elder quarry]

It isn’t and it’s an hdd

[kindred halo]

O h
Nvm yeah it's ass

[elder quarry]

It would be pretty bad ay that price too

[kindred halo]

Borrow a welding torch

i can’t find the screw cause I lost my glasses

[kindred halo]

What screw??

[strange atlas]

is it possible to use hdr while gaming in windowed mode i'm sick of waiting for 10 seconds and then turning hdr back on after every alt tab

[kindred halo]

Brother, you need like 2 screws minimum to get a board in

that’s offensive

so NOW you STFU when i bring MY disabilities in it??

[true stirrup]

Find the glasses or get someone to unscrew it

[strange atlas]

Thats sad it makes the game %1000 better then it is but it has problems 😦

[brazen sinew]

im not paying some fucking hobo 10 bucks to take out a screw in a pc

[true stirrup]

No friends or family members to help?

[kindred halo]

I am.. Excuse me?

[brazen sinew]

ong tho, there was this one homeless guy who lived in a tent across the street, and he always had a cardboard sign saying “Will fix any computer” I’m dead ass

[kindred halo]

This is definitely bait

[dapper gull]

What's the power draw difference between the i5-12400f and i5-14400?

[kindred halo]

If not having your glasses causes you this much disability - don't blame you, I kinda lose half my motor functions too without mine -, then you should focus on finding them and not arguing on a fucking Internet chat space

[brazen sinew]

no, my dad is a fucking elder and my mom fights with me all the time about literally everything which isn’t a joke, and they both have glasses, and my mom is blind in one eye

[brazen sinew]

well what if i need help LOCATING IT?

cause the whole fucking motherboard is BLACK and the screws are black

so I can’t even SEE IT

[kindred halo]

Why're you being an ass to me
Did I steal your glasses? Did I design the board and make both the screws & board black?

Your best bet is to shine a flashlight and search for inconsistency

[grizzled frost]

google it

[kindred halo]

Or rub your fingers against the corners and sides

[dapper gull]

Google has like 4 different answers

[grizzled frost]

techpowerup, average power draw

[true stirrup]

TDP is a lie check some videos

[dapper gull]

Aight

[kindred halo]

@brazen sinew I have an idea

Google the board, and try to cross reference the screw hole locations on it to your own board

[grizzled frost]

well it’s not a lie, it’s just an arbitrary measurement that isn’t meant to describe what most people think it is

[true stirrup]

Do you have - or + dioptre?

[kindred halo]

You'll need to use your brain power on that one, too bad you already used it up being an asshole

[brazen sinew]

no but you were being offensive because of my dissability

[true stirrup]

For LGA1700 it basically is because the CPUs pull much more than the TDP says
For AMD it's usually quite accurate

[grizzled frost]

can yall both chill? being toxic back and forth ain’t helping anything

[brazen sinew]

idk what I have tbh, i unscrewed all the screws I could find in my motherboard and it still isn’t coming off

[grizzled frost]

Well TDP isn’t supposed to describe the amount of power the cpu actually draws, it’s supposed to be a descriptor of how much cooling capacity you need

[kindred halo]

You sent a full caps rant which I can only assume to be insults, my guy, you aren't innocent

[true stirrup]

Do you see worse when looking at close or far objects?

[brazen sinew]

they weren’t insults and I have screenshots to verify

[brazen sinew]

I think either close or far, I can’t tell

maybe close?

[true stirrup]

Okay fair paint
I just think it's misleading that for example my 12600kf has a TDP of 125W but casually pulls 200W

[thorn cove]

for dual tower cpu coolers, do they come with a fan-y cable included?

[gilded harness]

got a RM750x for 30 bucks

[kindred halo]

When you can, write something on a paper and prop it up on a shelf or something, and see if it looks worse close up or far off

[gilded harness]

time to pull a 3090 + 2200g combo

[kindred halo]

Sure

[gilded harness]

they usually include that

[frail delta]

<@&750150305383186585>

I think we all need to calm! 😌

[kindred halo]

Thanks for the polite words, you could've been nicer about it

[true stirrup]

Well for close just stand a bit further from the motherboard and for far just stand closer
You'll manage to do it

[frail delta]

not when you pmo about my autism.

[strange atlas]

If its problem with seeing unfortunately you gotta get help from somebody else cause nobody in here can gift you their vision

Just try to find it at least

[south arrow]

Seeking real help outside of discord is recommended

[brazen sinew]

bro, my sister abuses me because of my autism. what do you expect when you offend someone like that?

[south arrow]

Your local disabilities office is always open with abundant resources ❤️ for the personal matters at least

[strange atlas]

Tell your parents if they dont listen call the cops they can take you somewhere safer

but like not to be mean but this isnt a place to talk about these things this is tech channel lets keep it at that

[brazen sinew]

no, i don’t talk to her anymore, but she said she’ll keep abusing me for the rest of my life everytime i talk to her or see her

Since the topic was eyesight / impairment, here's my own results
I think they were written by a wizard, hence the fireball spell shapes (/s)

[abstract wigeon]

i cant tell, is this saying i have 4 slots for pcie/cpu or just 2? wierd placement of lable.

[kindred halo]

Results from two years ago, don't know where my tests from last month are

[kindred halo]

Check the site, it'll probably solve that question
Make sure to type in which rev/label it is though

[south arrow]

4 technically but 1 or 2 for the cpu*

[elder quarry]

google

someoe mentioned me?

[kindred halo]

@true stirrup Any idea?

[south arrow]

Most motherboards even with 2 cpu pcie slots only need 1 outside of extrem oc

[abstract wigeon]

is the 2x4 connector going to be for anything else?

afaik sata / molex is always 2x3

[kindred halo]

Unsure best to check site

Okay quick question

[empty quartz]

Meow

[kindred halo]

I have the possibility to buy a 13400 w/ the iGPU for 140, but a 14400F is 128, is the difference between the 13400 & 14400F (in terms of speed) major enough to warrant staying with the cheaper 14400F?

[empty quartz]

@kindred halo :3

[kindred halo]

:3

[empty quartz]

Get a 13500

[kindred halo]

Mreowow haii

[kindred halo]

[gloomy sleet]

damn

[kindred halo]

@empty quartz For reference:
The 7600X & 9600X are 180

[true stirrup]

Yeah no I can't read that lol

[kindred halo]

As in too low quality or you don't understand what the info means?

[stable nacelle]

Hello fellas. If you were in my situation, let's say hypothetically, some IMac is in a bootloop, knowing the likely issue is the PSU?

What would you do?

[frail delta]

So you have an iMac that's bootlooping?

[stable nacelle]

Yes

[frail delta]

You're allowed to just say that :p

[stable nacelle]

I know

[frail delta]

"Asking for a friend" lol

[stable nacelle]

Yea haha

[kindred halo]

What about getting a round cylinder stuck

[true stirrup]

I don't understand the info
I don't see any dioptre on there
Maybe if I tried I could figure out if there are any cylinders lol

[kindred halo]

Fair enough

[frail delta]

Probably not the PSU if it boots

[stable nacelle]

Well, it ain't the drives either, or the ram

[true stirrup]

I've had my eyes checked many times but I've never received such a detailed sheet

[frail delta]

It's an iMac that has socketed memory and drives? Ewaste.

[raw trout]

Guys blender is so complicated.

Can someone teach me?

[kindred halo]

Interesting

Do you have glasses?

[stable nacelle]

Crazy

[frail delta]

It's 2025 ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[raw trout]

No bro he has microsoft hololens not glasses or contacts

[stable nacelle]

I know, but this thing was in my attic for idk how long, wanted to try and fix it

[frail delta]

If it's a 2017 21.5" iMac, they were ewaste on release

[glacial tulip]

[elder quarry]

[stable nacelle]

In a bootloop since 2019, but it's from 2012-2015 age

[true stirrup]

Yeah I have a dioptre between -2 and -2.5

[frail delta]

Short domains

[kindred halo]

Interessant
They gave me this document alongside a note with information on it to get some glasses, I don't know why they gave me the document though, since the optical work people only needed the note

[raw trout]

My life has been in a bootloop since 2020 when the Covid virus got me picked up from my parents on my bday from school. It's bad enough I was born on the day the japanese tsunami killed hundreds if not thousands of people

March 11 2011

[stable nacelle]

Uhhhh...don't feel bad you were born on a particular day. You have no control over that haha. Also...that's sad

[raw trout]

Mhm

[south arrow]
