[swift moss]

I know the iphone 6s from the inside out because I actually owned it an opened it tons of times

[peak knot]

before he had a couple videos go viral of him repairing come wild GPU damage he was reasonable but after the inrush of people he locked everything down and attempted to monitize it

[swift moss]

others are all obtained

[swift moss]

repairing wild gpu damage better not be him replacing the die and every single chip 😭

i wanna see some cost effectiveness not board level repair cmonnn

[frigid blade]

It makes sense but it’s sad

[peak knot]

nah ill post the vid that truly took off

[swift moss]

ill have a look yeah if u send

[winter lantern]

It has a warranty on it so i can't tell whats wrong with it from the inside
The pcie looks fine

[swift moss]

cop or drop chat?

[swift moss]

yeah call nvidia or whoever you got it from them yeah WAYYY better option

[winter lantern]

The led glows and the fans spins too

[swift moss]

and 100% free assuming you doing nail it in with a hammer

[winter lantern]

How would it be a better option than a credible youtuber

Besides for the price and all that

[peak knot]

this one is a good example of his skill

[formal sonnet]

Don't touch with a 40 ft pole. That model was eWaste the moment its predecessors were designed 30+ years ago.

[winter lantern]

I bought it used

[swift moss]

wb this?

i just need a decent scanner 😭

[frigid blade]

Makima we told you weeks ago to RMA…

Why are you still talking about this

[winter lantern]

They brought it up

[peak knot]

ive got an apple imagewriter II printer ill sell you like new in box lol

[swift moss]

1200 × 4800 copy

[frigid blade]

I know but why didn’t you RMA it

Why do you still have it

[swift moss]

honestly ill take if you do free shipping to nz 😭

actually i might even pay for shipping if its under 50nzd

[peak knot]

it wont work with your PC lol

[winter lantern]

I called and they said no 😔

[frigid blade]

Ainoway

[winter lantern]

I should probably just do it again

[swift moss]

i see 😭

[frigid blade]

Try to see if you can get someone who feels nice

[swift moss]

i dont have anything of the sort lying around so yeah

[formal sonnet]

Then buy the Epson V39 II or V600 flatbed scanner, depending on your needs.

[frigid blade]

Maybe say you lost the receipt or something

[peak knot]

nvm

[swift moss]

cheap but not free

[formal sonnet]

$129 is not that expensive for a quality scanner. But yes, if you could get it for less, sure, go ham.

[swift moss]

fair enough, but i dont need the scanner desperately just a ease of use thing

[winter lantern]

I cant find anything saying you need proof of purchase on their website

[swift moss]

is that your macintosh?

[frigid blade]

You don’t

[swift moss]

uni has a 600dpi scanner already

[winter lantern]

Im just very afraid of shipping it

[frigid blade]

It says on their website you can do it without proof of purchase

[swift moss]

its a kyocera

[peak knot]

no

not even my pic

[swift moss]

NZ MOBILE ALERT!!!! emergency systems test yay

[swift moss]

oh i see

[frigid blade]

What time is it there

It’s 1 am here

[peak knot]

can see the printer box in this pic

[winter lantern]

2

Im a teen so ill be fine

[frigid blade]

It’s not a printer, it’s an image writer, get it right

[swift moss]

wow

[swift moss]

average apple

[winter lantern]

Apple thingamobobs go crazy

[reef prawn]

Should I go for an RX 6700 xt or a 3060 8 gig for the better upscaling? (both are around 180$ second hand)

[swift moss]

its not a TPM, its a secure enclave

[frigid blade]

I always buy 2-3 generations behind on Apple thingamabobs

They are well priced

[swift moss]

dont buy apple full stop 😭

[peak knot]

if shipping that printer wouldnt cost a small fortune to new zealand i would sell it to you cheap

[swift moss]

https://tenor.com/view/side-eye-rock-the-rock-gif-6658795805713564985

[winter lantern]

My setup looks quite silly

[frigid blade]

I like my iPhones

I’ll never buy newest gen anything

Not worth it

[peak knot]

its pretty much a new in box printer with all the accessories still in it

[frigid blade]

Only GTA 6 when it comes out

[swift moss]

sea freight in 2025 😭

[frigid blade]

But maybe I’ll buy a key the other way

[winter lantern]

So true

[swift moss]

but yeah just do this, how much does the imagewriter weigh?

[frigid blade]

That’s cheap

[swift moss]

170nzd to ship lol

[frigid blade]

I can’t believe im gonna need coolers for my RAM

[swift moss]

the imagewriter is 7kgs

[peak knot]

25 pounds

[swift moss]

whatttt

306nzd haha

[peak knot]

imagewriter 2 in OG box has a ship weight of a claimed 25 pounds

[swift moss]

its 15 realistically but sure 25lbs

[peak knot]

yeah... thats worth more than the whole printer in just shipping

[peak knot]

no the 15 pounds is the imagewriter 2 revision II/L

[winter lantern]

I lowkey wanna sell my cooked pc and get this

[swift moss]

fedex10kg box lol

[peak knot]

this is an early imagewriter 2 model that weighs more

[swift moss]

i have living in the middle of fucking nowhere god damn

only thing im thankful for is aliexpress 😭

practically where i get everything these days

instead of shipping an oscilloscope from usa just get from chinese sellers

like lcsc (shipping still crazy but cheaper)

23usd is much nicer

[peak knot]

i like siglent for my lab stuff

[swift moss]

i cannot afford any oscilloscope lol

especially high end ones

[swift moss]

also i thought you used cathode ray?

[peak knot]

i own like 6 scopes

wait 5 atm

3 tektronix, 1 fnirsi tablet scope and my main siglent scope

[swift moss]

send me one surely 😭

[swift moss]

do you like the tablet scope?

it looks budget friendly and like 3 in 1 type shi lol

@peak knot sorta like?

or like

[peak knot]

it has major compromises compared to a actual bench scope and is useful mostly as a floating scope to check AC voltage and such

[peak knot]

this is the one i own

[swift moss]

oh i see

[swift moss]

maybe i invest in a quality multimeter instead then lol

i do need a stereo microscope as well 😭

i need so much shit ong I need to start doing freelance iphone repairs again

i used to make racks with it 😭

like 100nzd per phone

[swift moss]

my hands cant aim very well without it but its doable for now

especially for ics, ive never done a under 0603 job before because it was just too small for me

@peak knot my current DT-830B multimeter is also horrible innacurate as i was complaining about earlier today lol

[peak knot]

this was a pic of me using the scope on the go

[winter lantern]

Is it bad to attempt to raw dog a mutimeter

[swift moss]

lol coool

i gotta decide a priority of purchases though lol, I kinda wanna invest in a multimeter first because the cheapest

[peak knot]

one sec i am looking for a multimeter/oscope that are good bang for buck

[swift moss]

thanks yeah, just nothing too expensive please 😭

i recently dropped a bit of coin to upgrade from an 868d lol to a quick 959d+

[peak knot]

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808693765006.html?

this is a banger of a deal that just got dropped by fnirsi

[smoky zealot]

I was wondering if I should download drivers for my 7600x3d or no?

[peak knot]

is a 2 channel 350mhz tablet scope that also has a spectrum analyzer and bode plot analasis along with a 50mhz signal generator

[granite sundial]

im still mad that the 120 dollar 500 mhz oscilloscope with 4 probes got sniped out from under me on facebook marketplace

4 channel and it came with probes

[peak knot]

was it a tektronix

[granite sundial]

yeah an old crt one

still a crazy deal for 120

[graceful robin]

aww man

[peak knot]

ehhh the 500mhz is misleading as hell

its 500mhz/4

so max is truly like 125mhz

[granite sundial]

is it split like that?

[peak knot]

yeah

[granite sundial]

i thought they were independent

[peak knot]

its not like modern scopes where you can usually get the stated frequency on all channels or where its slit into pairs

no old tek scopes had their bandwidth split and the stated bandwidth was a combined number

[granite sundial]

even 100-200mhz scopes without probes go for 200-300

so still a good deal

[swift moss]

ill take a check yeah

[peak knot]

psst go for a 455 scope can get em for like $50

[swift moss]

it cant ship but let me check the name

440 nzd is crazy 😭

[swift moss]

ik its 4 in one but like gaw dam

[peak knot]

ill sell you my 1013D for like $75 usd+shipping

[granite sundial]

none on sale in australia on ebay that i can find

[swift moss]

what in the diy is this

[granite sundial]

it said it wouldnt ship to my address

[swift moss]

the +shipping goes hard

[swift moss]

na just look up the model number

he sent a aliexpress.us link im an aliexpres.com user

different listings/offers sometimes

[peak knot]

actually $50+shipping

[swift moss]

let me settle the budgets lol ill figure out shipping cost

honestly probably not a bad deal

this is solely an oscilloscope or multimeter with diode mode as well?

[peak knot]

its solely a somewhat passible oscilloscope

its honestly crap compared to all my other scopes but its portable and cheap

[swift moss]

perfect shipping is 23.50

650g weight

however its a parcel forwarding service

so yeah i gotta pay in us shipping as well

[granite sundial]

ok but the old scopes look way cooler have u considered that

[peak knot]

https://www.fnirsi.com/products/2c53t

this would be a good combo deal for you if you can find it

[swift moss]

yeah i know but crt is a bit too much especially because i am a beginner scoper

[peak knot]

50mhz scope + multimeter

[swift moss]

250m/s is fine ig

[granite sundial]

isnt a scope fundamentally just a multimeter with a time axis

[swift moss]

good price as well

[stiff prawn]

no one helped me, but chat gpt did

[swift moss]

do you reckon the 1013 u offering me better value?

[stiff prawn]

I ran chkdsk and BOYS RUST HAS BEEN DOWNLOADED

[peak knot]

yeah but they do not avg the voltages and read way faster

[swift moss]

yeah but they have different underlying purposes, strenghs and functions

[peak knot]

its an older product from them its only advantage is it is a 100mhz scope

[swift moss]

this yeah

[stiff prawn]

still getting

[hoary tree]

One of these photos was shot on an iPhone 6s and one of these photos was shot on iPhone 16 pro

[swift moss]

100mhz is a lil overboard ngl

[stiff prawn]

the one on the right was shot on iphone 16pro

[swift moss]

the portable one doesnt look as cool on my bench though

[peak knot]

.... me looking at upgrading my 1202x-e

[hoary tree]

Wrong.

[peak knot]

if your complaining about the 1013D pricing my siglent is way over budget for you

[stiff prawn]

yeah i figured, the one on the left is the iphone 16pro

the colors are better on the left

[swift moss]

same amount of samples ig

[hoary tree]

You literally just said the photo on the right was the 16 pro 🥀

[swift moss]

na its the shipping lol

[stiff prawn]

on a quick glance yes

[swift moss]

am i gonna be over or under 130nzd

[stiff prawn]

but when i properly clicked on the picutre and looked at the small things

[swift moss]

in total shipping around 83.96 (for the scope) + 23 (shipping) so like 100nzd if you internally ship it to NZPost warehouse

[stiff prawn]

Look at the small saplings on the bottom, theyre of the same color in the picture on the right

[peak knot]

theres a massive difference between then siglent and the fnirsi even though it claims 1GS/s i dont beleive it

[swift moss]

im assuming shipping in the states is super cheap

[swift moss]

is it really that noticeable unless you working with mega projects lol

[peak knot]

for me yeah i can notice it on some stuff but you probably wont be measuring some things like me

[swift moss]

like the details arent super important on lax (me designed) circuits

[swift moss]

fair enough

but yeah ill take the scope for free though 🙏 LMFAOOO

[peak knot]

for reference

[swift moss]

not a bad price honestly

for what it is

[peak knot]

what im contemplating getting

[swift moss]

half the frequency, double the bandwidth, interesting

[peak knot]

https://tenor.com/view/well-yes-but-actually-no-meme-aardman-the-pirates-pirate-gif-26563702

it can be hacked to get 200mhz

[swift moss]

LMFAOO

also bro free shipping tommorow, why cant I live in the states lmfao

honestly contemplating doing a postgrad in the us of a

sounds fun because there are actual like companies there

unlike the desert of new zealand

too many trees not enough job opportunities smh

@peak knot ima need a better rate on the fnrsi oscilloscope 😭 na jk ill consider the offer if you are serious ngl

[minor cove]

I've got almost this 1104 X-E so 4 channel, works well enough for probing around when tinkering with sensors/IoT things or RC things

[peak knot]

i have a pretty solid mini lab going on

[minor cove]

has definitely saved me from inverted signals or missing ground connections and things

same, problem is always finding component X when I need it still 😄 need to do like a month of cleaning here

today was walking around looking for rotary encoders... I'm sure there's a box of them here somewhere

[peak knot]

My main test shelf

[kindred halo]

Why do oscilloscopes cost that much

[ripe marsh]

Can anyone recommend a UPS for a 240v country? My home power can be a little fucky and randomly die for short times

[rigid fjord]

not sure dude, depending on who/where it was manufactured it, just like resistors there could be variations

[rigid fjord]

drop, do not go for hp printers

[swift moss]

Usually it's around 50

Mine is going wild but this is mostly made for detecting shorts so yeah

[rigid fjord]

it's a hp printer, unless you're prepaired to sign up to their subscriiption based ink delivery, never touch one of their printers tbh

epson, canon or brother are good options for a combo printer btw @swift moss

[swift moss]

I see thanks

There was a free brother than didn't recognise cheap ink cartridges

[rigid fjord]

which 240v country?

[swift moss]

I might get that it's wifi as well so I can slap it in the office as a gift for my dad

[ripe marsh]

Aus

[swift moss]

I wanna move out soon though : 😢

[rigid fjord]

search for eaton, cyberpower or apc, and get one towards the power requirement you need

[true stirrup]

Awesome

[tidal geyser]

yay

knew it

[lapis talon]

I'm considering the Nitro+ 9070 XT again 💀

[tidal geyser]

good

[lapis talon]

12VHPWR

[tidal geyser]

with load balancing

[frail delta]

Skip line interactive UPSs and go straight for an online one

This is what I have at home but it's very overkill
https://www.cyberpower.com/id/en/product/sku/ols2000e

[tender token]

Hi, is it posible to get some tech support here form u guys?

[tidal geyser]

no never https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1027757333117415424

[tender token]

sorry new here didint see that

[kindred halo]

My 4460 is running at a cool 39-40° C at 3200MHz :3

[lapis talon]

FR?

Sapphire Pure 9070 XT and Sapphire Nitro+ 9070 XT are nearly the same price

[swift moss]

compaqt

i should buy this

[tidal geyser]

yes from what i can see and what i swear i know amd cards do load balance

[tidal geyser]

or maybe not

welp anyways its fine

[lapis talon]

what should I do about the cables though

[tidal geyser]

its fineeeeeeee

[lapis talon]

I only have 2 8pin cables

[tidal geyser]

get a new psu

[lapis talon]

brother

I just got this psu

[tidal geyser]

wy

[lapis talon]

NZXT C850 ATX3.1

[tidal geyser]

eh??? that should have more then 2

[lapis talon]

gotta check again

brb lemme check rq

[tidal geyser]

it got 4

tbf maybe just 3

its on the god dam website

[lapis talon]

slots yes

[tidal geyser]

no 5

[lapis talon]

o h

[tidal geyser]

but one for cpu

but in the box you only get 3 gpu cables

[lapis talon]

do I have to use the converter that comes with the nitro+?

[tidal geyser]

and 12v 2x6

[lapis talon]

or can I use the PSU's 12vhpwr

[tidal geyser]

you got 3 cables

[lapis talon]

yes

[lapis talon]

but just curious

[tidal geyser]

why buy a 3rd party cable

[lapis talon]

nononono

the PSU came with a 12VHPWR to 12VHPWR cable

[tidal geyser]

the psu does not have anything 12vhpwer does not come with a cable no nothing

[tidal geyser]

no?

[lapis talon]

what

[tidal geyser]

its ATX 3.1 too

[lapis talon]

I saw one in the box

also

[tidal geyser]

not possible

[lapis talon]

the quality of the connectors are so bad

ill show you wait

[tidal geyser]

ATX 3.1 does not use 12vhpwer or should ever come with a cable like that

also i have been kidding with you a bit as the 12vhpwer cable looks like the 12v-2x6 one aka atx 3.1 cable aka the cable and connector ALL new gpus use

[lapis talon]

back

[lapis talon]

yeah, my bad 💀

it came with a 12V2x6

[tidal geyser]

yay you are using the name

but you can split it but meh i would not

[lapis talon]

alright

it came with 2 CPU cables, I installed one and have an extra

is that a spare cable?

[tidal geyser]

kinda

[lapis talon]

ah

[wheat torrent]

Is the intel b60 the next thing for consumer local AI hardware?

[lapis talon]

yeah

[tidal geyser]

i dono maybe

[lapis talon]

the CPU cable was a nightmare to install

[wheat torrent]

500 per card and the ability to use 2 or multiple, 48gb total for 1000 dollars

[tidal geyser]

no wait no, you cant buy it as a consumer

[wheat torrent]

Is there any other GPU that offers 48gb at that pricepoint

[tidal geyser]

used nvidia cards

[wheat torrent]

The enterprise ones?

[valid scroll]

guys ive got a question

[tidal geyser]

swear there are 24GB h100s or smn like that for around the same price

[wheat torrent]

I wonder how they compare to a b60

[valid scroll]

can anyone help me with like sim cards and esim

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/nuh-uh-meme-no-cat-no-cat-nuh-uh-nuh-uh-gif-5478596456695677807

[lapis talon]

sim, should I really go for the nitro+ over the sapphire pure?

[tidal geyser]

up to you but both are fine

[lapis talon]

nitro+ looks like a dust magnet

[valid scroll]

SIMCARD

[wheat torrent]

Also the b60 really caught my attention, since I use GPU for work mostly

[tidal geyser]

do you not have a filter on your case

[wheat torrent]

I doubt raytracing performance would be the same as a modern nvidia rtx

[tidal geyser]

not sure how

[tidal geyser]

eh?

[lapis talon]

yeah I do but my area is too dusty for a single filter

you might be like "get an air purifier" or whatever but that just isnt cost effective for me

[tidal geyser]

get a air filter

[tidal geyser]

it is

[wheat torrent]

I assume they had to lower compute in order to offer more vram

[lapis talon]

really expensive in my region iirc

[tidal geyser]

https://www.rtings.com/air-purifier/reviews/corsi-rosenthal/box

[lapis talon]

I live in the middle of nowhere

[tidal geyser]

well the point of a lot of the enterprise cards is for good fp16 performance and such

[tidal geyser]

get a fan then put a sock over it

[lapis talon]

Bangladesh manages to somehow skyrocket the prices of everything

[lapis talon]

😭

I'd need a pretty big sock for that

[wheat torrent]

I wonder how b60 compares to 3090

[tidal geyser]

cant comare em too well

[tidal geyser]

anything cloth

[lapis talon]

wont really work

[tawny knoll]

Me too

[tidal geyser]

dual gpu on the same card cards are just a pain to use unless you have the right software stufffff

[tawny knoll]

probably really similar if it's an addition setup, but probably worse if its a parallel setup

[tawny knoll]

Yeah

[hoary tree]

Ya'll, the bar can't be set THAT low, right...?

[wheat torrent]

They showed a decent amount of partners

[tidal geyser]

what programs work well with it?

[lapis talon]

sim, ill trust you on this one and get the nitro+ then

[tawny knoll]

It's always that low

[lapis talon]

got info from my local store that they finally got it in my country and will list it up soon

[wheat torrent]

Not sure

[lapis talon]

so I will need to tell them to keep one in stock for me before it goes live

[tidal geyser]

then why give a shit

[wheat torrent]

To be honest I am looking at the base b60

[tidal geyser]

also again consumers cant get it

[wheat torrent]

Not the dual one

[tidal geyser]

as of now b60 and such is only in prebuilts from what i heard

[lapis talon]

also before I switch to AMD

what should I do about the drivers?

[tidal geyser]

ddu

[wheat torrent]

Odd, why?
Having a workstation GPU that people can't buy

[lapis talon]

do I need to go into safe mode then use DDU?

$990 for a 9070 xt is crazy though

[granite sundial]

990 what

[lapis talon]

USD

[granite sundial]

oh yeah thats crazy high

[lapis talon]

well the cheapest RTX 5070Ti is $100 more expensive

[granite sundial]

usa?

[tidal geyser]

but you can

just has to be in a sytem

[lapis talon]

USD price, but I live in Bangladesh

converted into USD basically

[granite sundial]

oh you probably get fucked by customs duty then

[tidal geyser]

it allows them to install and test the whole system and also might need special hardware for it to work

[lapis talon]

its after customs

108.9k BDT (894 USD) is the total price for a sapphire pure right now

[tidal geyser]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xn8z39tiEL0

[granite sundial]

are prices in general just higher like that?

[lapis talon]

saw a video but just wanted to confirm

[lapis talon]

yup

[granite sundial]

u should always go into safe mode when using ddu

[lapis talon]

alright

people keep saying theyre going for nvidia solely because of the CUDA cores but

my RTX 2060 Super dont even have those so

I really am not losing out on much

[tidal geyser]

what????????????????

[lapis talon]

does the 2060S have cuda cores?

[tidal geyser]

nvidia has had cuda cores in every single card they have made for like the past 20 years or some shit

[tidal geyser]

YES IT EVEN HAS TENSOR CORES

[lapis talon]

yo what

[tidal geyser]

yes

[lapis talon]

but no proper DLSS support though right

[tidal geyser]

no

[lapis talon]

since it was the first gen of RTX

[tidal geyser]

it has full dlss 4 support well other then hardware locked shit

[olive perch]

what do i do

(this is half an email i sent to ltt support)

I submitted a video for RIG25 at Form Link and I realised that I hadn't put the captions on, so I re-edited it and put the captions on, but when I tried to submit the new one, it wouldn't let me as your form only allowed one per person. I would like a fair chance so can you please do one of two things (or both)

A. Update my video on your form from Old Video to this New Video
B. Make a whole new entry on your form with the following info

[tidal geyser]

still has tensor cores

[granite sundial]

the only feature 20 and 30 series doesnt get that 40 series gets is framegen iirc

[lapis talon]

how come I can never use anything higher than DLSS2

[olive perch]

will they listen

[tidal geyser]

that is the game

[granite sundial]

what driver version

[lapis talon]

which basically is useless as I cant see a single difference

[lapis talon]

latest

[lapis talon]

hmm

[tidal geyser]

every single RTX card ever made can use DLSS 4

[lapis talon]

ill check that out rq

[granite sundial]

what game are u playing

[olive perch]

y is no one listening

[high lance]

is there a noticable difference in gaming between the r5 7600x3d and the r7 7800x3d

[tidal geyser]

no

[high lance]

ok

[granite sundial]

no

[tidal geyser]

you are gpu limited

[high lance]

wdym

[granite sundial]

well it depends some games are pretty much always cpu limited like city skylines 2

[lapis talon]

CP2077, Spiderman-2, tried the new doom and a few other games

[granite sundial]

but the vast majority are gonna be gpu limited

[true stirrup]

Yeah just send the email

[high lance]

what does cpu limited and gpu limited mean

[tidal geyser]

since you have such bad fps then its the gpu that is limiting you

[tidal geyser]

it means to get more fps you need to upgrade that part for that to happen

[granite sundial]

latest versions?

[olive perch]

...

[granite sundial]

if youre cpu limited then upgrading gpu isnt gonna get you any more fps and vice versa

[olive perch]

k

[high lance]

so would 9070 xt and 7600x3d be fine

[tidal geyser]

cyber punk 2077 should have dlss 4

[sinful cobalt]

no, they are like only 15% apart

[tidal geyser]

yes but what do you have now and what settings and what game

[lapis talon]

yeah I'll check cyberpunk in a bit

[tidal geyser]

not really

[granite sundial]

at 1080p with a 4090 maybe

[high lance]

rn i have 5600g

[tidal geyser]

EWWWWWWWWWWWWW

[golden sage]

Quick question, b850 asus Tuf gaming or b850 aorus elite?

[high lance]

my dad bought it not me

[granite sundial]

what gpu

[tidal geyser]

cheapest

[lapis talon]

whats up with FSR4 though, heard its only available in a select few games right now

[high lance]

none

[tidal geyser]

well you can say the same thing about dlss

[tidal geyser]

well that is the issue

[granite sundial]

5600g is gonna be faster than 5600x3d with no gpu then cuz 5600g has a better iGPU

[tidal geyser]

slap in a rx 9060 xt when it comes out and have a good time

[lapis talon]

just asking since I've never actually used DLSS or FSR before

[granite sundial]

but why are u spending 300 bucks on a new cpu instead of buying a gpu

[high lance]

i already have 9070 xt

[tidal geyser]

o wow

[golden sage]

Fr? They’re $7 diff thats why i was wondering, im a lifetime asus user but i am considering aorus motherboard, hows gigabyte nowdays over asus?

[granite sundial]

upgrade cpu then lol

get a 5600x3d if u can find one

[tidal geyser]

well 5600G and 9070 xt time, just make sure to update the bios and turn on rebar

[high lance]

1 sec ima show u the pcpp

[sinful cobalt]

???? I mean in general CPU benchmarking which counts 1080p?

[high lance]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/Vlesnic/saved/WqG66h

[tidal geyser]

i dono but warranty on asus i have heard is horrible or at least a lucky spin hoping for the best

[granite sundial]

return the psu its so loud

[tidal geyser]

O GOD NO O GOD ONONONON

[granite sundial]

get a semi passive one

[high lance]

what now

[sinful cobalt]

asus has horrible rma process
based on my experience b4 GN confronted them

[granite sundial]

garbage product with loud ass rifle bearing fan

[sinful cobalt]

gigabyte is meh

[tidal geyser]

PLEAS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD tell me you did not buy this or at least it was only like 200$

[high lance]

it was 150

[tidal geyser]

fhew

[granite sundial]

is that board bad?

[sinful cobalt]

no

[tidal geyser]

no just HELLA overpriced

[sinful cobalt]

just that x870 is useless over bx50

[granite sundial]

most x870 are overpriced

[tidal geyser]

also i thought it was even more but was just 250

[granite sundial]

if u need wifi 7 buy a separate wifi card unless ur doing an itx build

[tidal geyser]

when i read elite i read too much money

[tidal geyser]

you do not need wifi 7

[granite sundial]

yeah and most ppl dont

99% of ppl arent using the x870 features

theyre buying it for looks

[sinful cobalt]

i got wifi 7 bcs I got a x870 steel legend for the price of a b650 at the time (before b850 released)

[wheat torrent]

They are saying full release in q4, right now it's consumer sampling

[swift thorn]

wifi 7 is gonna be awesome in a year, when we get routers and devices that can actually use it

[sinful cobalt]

also needed a better router so just slapped the cheapest wifi 7 option on there from asus

[tidal geyser]

when i go wifi 7 it will be something ubiquiti

[sinful cobalt]

and before anyone talks smack I was running on 5 mbps on my pc

[wheat torrent]

Those are some odd brands, never heard of them except asrock

[sinful cobalt]

it was that bad

[wheat torrent]

I assume last 2 would be most fitting in a normal computer

[granite sundial]

all the blower ones would be targeting the server market

blowers only really make sense in servers

[tidal geyser]

workstation

[granite sundial]

yeah or multiple gpu workstation

[tidal geyser]

well that is the point of it

[wheat torrent]

Fair enough

[granite sundial]

passive asrock one is interesting

[wheat torrent]

Well they at least give you those 2 options

[tidal geyser]

now that one is perfect for a server

well consumer grade server stuff

[wheat torrent]

I really like this GPU but sadly seems that compute is slightly worse than 3090

[tidal geyser]

imagine having something like that in a small little n100 machine or something already passive in some corner of the house and use it for local ai like home assistant voice

[tidal geyser]

well its also way easier to pool em together aka the point of the b60

[granite sundial]

surely something basic like home assistant u could run on a cheaper gpu

[tidal geyser]

you do not need a gpu for it

[wheat torrent]

It would be great if they had a 1000 dollar version, not a dual GPU version

[tidal geyser]

but if you wanna do a google like thingy with quick response times you do really want a good gpu

[sinful cobalt]

rtx 6000 pro blackwell

[wheat torrent]

Indeed but they don't advertise it as strictly made for ai using multiple GPUs, they do mention professional/workstation use-case a lot

[tidal geyser]

ofc

[granite sundial]

what would be the applications because to me it seems like the appeal is u get a lot of vram for cheap

[tidal geyser]

but the main point of being able to pool the gpus together is for ML and AI tasks

[granite sundial]

and okish compute

is it literally just LLM/ML

[tidal geyser]

ofc not but its a major reason for it

once you load AI outside of vram that is when the performance goes straight to shit

[wheat torrent]

Anything that uses vram

Like 3d modeling, simulations, so on and so forth

[granite sundial]

oh yeah stuff like protein folding simulations too

[granite sundial]

anything thats doing a ton of extremely simple math

[wheat torrent]

I doubt multi GPU works on most of these

So they must probably mean single gpu workflow

[tidal geyser]

well single card

[granite sundial]

doesnt professional software usually have pretty good multi gpu support

[tidal geyser]

the b60 is a multi gpu card

[wheat torrent]

They mention multi card only in their ai benchmarks

[tidal geyser]

the whole point of the b60 is that it has 2 cores on the same card

[wheat torrent]

Everything else is a single card

[granite sundial]

it shows up as 2 gpus to the pc right?

[wheat torrent]

The 24 GB of RAM is dual GPU?

[tidal geyser]

not really sure

[wheat torrent]

I thought that's only for the 48gb version

[tidal geyser]

last time we had something like this was gtx 690

[wheat torrent]

No I am pretty sure that's only for the b60 48gn

Yeah

The b60 dualgpu is a different card

Arc pro b50, b60
Arc pro b60 dual 48g turbo

[wheat torrent]

Some yeah

But still you wouldn't want to go through all the hassle

But again the fact that it's below 3090 performance wise is a deal breaker for me

They really should of had a b70 same price as the b60 dual

[tidal geyser]

fp16?

or fp32 or what

[wheat torrent]

Misinformation

Yeah well, I'll still keep an eye on intel and hope they do more workstations GPUs in the future

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/black-cat-walking-cat-walk-glamour-glamorous-gif-606557101916811110

[wheat torrent]

I need a 24 GB card that is better than 3090 but not expensive as fuck

Amd new cards go only to 16gb, Intel lacks compute

[tidal geyser]

i do wonder, compute for what

[wheat torrent]

Compute for everything I would use the GPU for

[tidal geyser]

and that would be

[wheat torrent]

Which would be rendering, texturing, baking, simulation

[tidal geyser]

baking?

[elder quarry]

yeah baking

[wheat torrent]

Texturing baking

Forget it

[tidal geyser]

are you running out of vram

[elder quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-raiya's-cat-rai's-cat-baking-biscuits-gif-10066940985411393495

[wheat torrent]

8gb of vram is very little

Yes

I cannot texture in 4k

[tidal geyser]

can your motherboard sli

[wheat torrent]

I can but it becomes very very slow

[wheat torrent]

Multi GPU?

[tidal geyser]

yus

[wheat torrent]

Can't find, astock b550 pro4

Still looking

[tidal geyser]

astock

[elder quarry]

assthock

[wheat torrent]

Nope

[tidal geyser]

could grab some old threadripper stuff

[wheat torrent]

Doesn't sound like a good option

I doubt I can find anything Threadripper where I live

[tidal geyser]

o well 5090 it is

[wheat torrent]

Especially used

[wheat torrent]

3090 for 1000
Or 4090 for 3000
💀

Maybe a new GPU will release soon

[elder quarry]

out

[tidal geyser]

no

[wheat torrent]

I have hope (I don't)

[elder quarry]

you can ALWAYS wat

wat

[wheat torrent]

Wat

[elder quarry]

WAIT

[wheat torrent]

Yeah I am waiting

[elder quarry]

brug

[wheat torrent]

Definitely not getting anything at today's prices

I don't think getting a 3090 would be a good choice

[golden sage]

@tidal geyser my bad for the ping, u seem knowledgeable, just wanted to ask if i need a cpu contact frame for AM5? I have one installed for my LGA1700 board

[elder quarry]

no

[carmine light]

u dont need one but it might reduce temps

[elder quarry]

no

[tidal geyser]

no

[tidal geyser]

no

[wheat torrent]

There is the 7900 XTX but idk

[golden sage]

Thank you

[wheat torrent]

Wtf

I don't live in US but wtf

[carmine light]

how high is too high is it after 95%

[wheat torrent]

For me 90% is still 7gb of free ram

[sleek ibex]

Contact frame does SFA for AM5

[carmine light]

i have 13gb left

[wheat torrent]

No problems

Except if you use up all 13 GB

I have 64 GB of RAM, I rarely use 90%
But I often use more than 32

48gb would be a balanced amount I guess

But 24gb RAM sticks aren't that common

[carmine light]

i was looking for 48gb sticks and 96gb sticks but i could only find 48

[tidal geyser]

i just found 2x 48 for 100$ and bought it

[hasty warren]

Crucial 5600MT/s CL46 (new)
VS
Samsung 4800MT/s M425R1GB4BB0-CQKOL (came with laptop)
(both ddr5 soddim)

Should I switch to crucial for more capacity? (2x8 --> 2x16)

[tidal geyser]

and then sold my old 2x 16 kit for 100

[wheat torrent]

I paid like 200 for my 2x32

Ddr4

[jolly moth]

heya uh

my pc lost power a few days ago in a game

[wheat torrent]

Gg

[hasty warren]

also laptop only supports 4800 so the 5600 one will downclock to 4800

[jolly moth]

now all unity games crash when i try load them - and my pc "power off" button just locks the screen and doesnt actually power off

[carmine light]

i cant get my ram past 5000 mts at 1.35v

not surprising though

[tidal grove]

Any way to fix this ?

[tidal geyser]

apex pro does that

[carmine light]

i need to change the timings because they are 42 42 42 80

[tidal grove]

redragon k630 dragonborn

[tidal geyser]

o

[tidal grove]

any fix tho?

[tidal geyser]

well anyways no fix well you could try and solder on a new LED

[jolly moth]

Sorry about the blurry camera

I did have to reset my cmos battery after the power loss because the bios demanded it

I’m wondering if some bios config change is making windows unhappy

[tidal grove]

that will ruin warrenty

and the store is really far away

[tidal geyser]

so use it

[tidal grove]

will resetting it or something else fix it?

[tidal geyser]

what hw

its a burnt out blue LED

[tidal grove]

idk like any fixes without soldewring and shi

it only does this in white

[tidal grove]

thats white but thuis keyuboards rgb not accurate

30 bucks budget keyb

[jolly moth]

does anyone know how to fix this? im lost

[tidal grove]

i know one way that will work 100%

firstly backup any data u need on a ectra storage drvice or flashdrive

and reinstall windows along with resetting biops using tbe cmos battery thing

if u do it perfectly u will be just fine

otherwise idkl

[true stirrup]

Ram is meant to be used

[carmine light]

How much is too much

[true stirrup]

When you are experiencing performance issues

[carmine light]

So about 98 or 99%

[true stirrup]

Even then your PC can probably make some space for stuff that needs more ram at the moment

[frail delta]

Does this hurt the computer?

[gilded thistle]

hi, i just got a new pc, but there's not microphone input when i plug in my headphones.
when i used my laptop previously, I could use the external monitor as mic input, but now that's not available, can someone help please thanks

[true stirrup]

What motherboard?

[gilded thistle]

asus tuf gaming b650-e wifi

[jolly moth]

Pc’s generally have a separate stereo output port and a microphone input port

[true stirrup]

I can see a microphone input on that

[gilded thistle]

oh i see, no wonder when i connect into 1 i lose the other

when i connect into the microphone input i lose my output i think

[jolly moth]

Do your headphones have a single Jack or two jacks on them

[gilded thistle]

1 jack only

[jolly moth]

You’ll need a mic splitter

[gilded thistle]

btw why doesn't monitor input work?

it worked when i was using my laptop

[jolly moth]

They have a one in two out
Be aware there’s 2 in 1 out splitters - do not get one of those

Examples of what you’re looking for:

[gilded thistle]

ok thanks sm i understand now

[robust lintel]

I've gotten very mixed opinions on reddit on whether I should get the hyperx cloud 3 wireless or nah

[gilded thistle]

any idea on this though?

[robust lintel]

thought on cloud 3 wireless?

[jolly moth]

Does your pc monitor have a headphone Jack port?

[robust lintel]

I found one on the used market

at very decent price

[gilded thistle]

yes, when i used my laptop on this monitor i could use mic input and audio output, now that i switched to pc it only allows audio output no mic input

[jolly moth]

Odd

[true stirrup]

Show a picture of your back IO with everything plugged in

[swift moss]

This sounds so sick

[gilded thistle]

sry do you mean my pc or monitor

[true stirrup]

Pc

[swift moss]

This seems like a decent value though

[gilded thistle]

Ethernet, KB and Mouse only

If I get an audio splitter, which 2 do I plug into

[true stirrup]

Yeah it's fine
You have a front mounted RAD?

[tender rock]

Side mounted its a lian li 011d evo xl

[true stirrup]

Red is microphone, green is audio output

[gilded thistle]

ok i see, how do i tell if its 2 in 1 out or 1 in 2 out

[jolly moth]

One will have a headphone symbol, that goes into line-out
One will have a mic symbol, that goes into mic in

[gilded thistle]

is the monitor mic input function just lost then

[true stirrup]

Nice so the rad is turned a good way as well

[jolly moth]

It may be a windows or a gpu driver setting? Idk if I can help with that rn tho

[gilded thistle]

oh i see its ok then thank you

[jolly moth]

This is a 1 in 2 out
The opposite will take two jacks in and combine them to one one jack out

You do not want one of these

[gilded thistle]

ohh ok get it I want 2 jacks and 1 hole

[jolly moth]

Yup

[gilded thistle]

makes sense ty

[gloomy sleet]

a female to male splitter

[tidal geyser]

lets goooo its sent

[gilded thistle]

sry its my first pc thanks sm everyone

[elder quarry]

Is it sas

Nevermind sata to sata

[jolly moth]

i really need to get a sas card for my pc myself lol

ive got lots of old server hard drives I wouldnt mind being able to use with my pc

HBA's cost a bomb though

[thorn viper]

chat is buying a used 6900XT good?

[carmine light]

depends on price of it and local electricity costs

[thorn viper]

360eeur-500eur

and electricity is not a problem

[carmine light]

is that used price

[thorn viper]

yup

[carmine light]

what other cards have you looked at

[thorn viper]

4060,4060ti,5060ti 16gb,3060 16gb,3060, thought about 7800XTX until i saw the used price

[true stirrup]

That is a big price gap

[carmine light]

what country in europe

[thorn viper]

bulgaria

i just roughly converted it to euro

[carmine light]

im guessing graphics cards will be more expensive there

[true stirrup]

For 360€ that is a pretty good price tbh

[thorn viper]

a 5060 8gb is 400eur

4060ti v2 is 500 eur

[carmine light]

i wouldnt buy a new graphics card at that budget especially if you are only gaming

[thorn viper]

mr trump's export laws or whatever they are called in english bumppped upp gpus by 20-200 eur

[true stirrup]

That is horrible

[carmine light]

not changed the prices for me in anything

[thorn viper]

like nvidia gpu's have skurocketed

i saw 4060s for 300eur now they are 350-400

[carmine light]

maybe its just less stock

[true stirrup]

Horrible as well

[thorn viper]

the ti went from 400ish to 500

[true stirrup]

Even the old price is bad

[thorn viper]

i know

thats how i got a 1650 for 200eur

well 200 and smth

there is a 6900XT for 320eur in my part of the city

[carmine light]

sounds like a good deal then

just keep in mind it draws 330 watts

[true stirrup]

If it's not a scam judging by the other prices you listed that's a steal

[thorn viper]

oh damn

that might be a problem

[indigo pelican]

Are you a pc expert

[thorn viper]

i got a 5700G with a 700W ppsu

[carmine light]

thats why i said about electricity prices

[true stirrup]

I know a lot about PCs and I'm majoring in computer science

[carmine light]

700w psu should be fine with a 6900xt as long as it is a decent quality model

[indigo pelican]

Can you please help see if my list is good value #1376136755279040522 message

just found a noctua d15 for 40$ or should i get the pa120 for 45

[carmine light]

isnt there 360mm aios for $50 in the usa

or is that not sold there because its a chinese company

[tidal geyser]

wat???????

asatek is american last time i checked

[carmine light]

thermalright

[junior valve]

its a black one too

[tidal geyser]

i dono up to you

[junior valve]

let me think about it

[true crescent]

Could someone please look at the grazed GPU in the tech support?
It's really urgent

[copper swallow]

This cooler is pretty good. I have it myself. It's massive though.

[raw trout]

Keyb

[copper swallow]

Not the best picture

But it gives you some sense of scale

[junior valve]

wheres the other fan

[raw trout]

This is the cooler a ps4 needs

[copper swallow]

I didn't have room to put the other fan in lol

[raw trout]

I love the ram with the crystal rgb

[junior valve]

over the ram

[copper swallow]

Thanks! I love it as well! Just waiting for them to make a DDR5 version

[copper swallow]

I could technically put it next to the ram, yes, but that would ruin the aesthetics. Besides, I have 12 fans (excluding CPU fan), so I don't really need it

The temps are great despite there only being 1 CPU fan

[raw trout]

Mabye you could take a ram stick ddr5 with RGB that is same brand with very close design and proportion and do a very jerry rigged ram swap

Ram heatsink*

[junior valve]

how does that compare to the corsair h170i

[copper swallow]

Honestly I prefer not to mess with my hardware like that

[raw trout]

It's ur opinion

[tidal geyser]

where is the other fan

[raw trout]

And your choice

[raw trout]

He can't fit it in

[copper swallow]

I've never used the h170i, but I can say this much: it's like 45-50 degrees at load

[raw trout]

That's really good

[junior valve]

what cpu?

[tidal geyser]

not even on the back

[raw trout]

What thermal paste

[junior valve]

big mobo heatsink

[copper swallow]

I didn't put it on because I didn't want to block any of the RGB lmao

[raw trout]

Ya ig or it's just a small aio

[junior valve]

45-50 is like my idle temps

[copper swallow]

Ryzen 5800x

I think

Let me check

[raw trout]

@tidal geyser

[jolly moth]

ive figured out why my pc couldnt open unity games - discord_game_sdk.dll
I have spent hours carefully deleting reg keys, updating, doing system repairs, fucking with steam, deleting files all accross my system

and what was breaking my unity games, a discord overlay plugin

[copper swallow]

It was 5700x not 5800x

[junior valve]

that cpu is way chiller than mine

[jolly moth]

of all the things, fucking discord is why my pc couldnt open Unity games

[copper swallow]

Tbf the reason I get these temps is because I literally have 12 fans on this system, which is kind of overkill and most people don't have that many. I spent more on the fans than the CPU LOL

Here's a better image that shows the absurd amount of fans

You can kind of also see the cooler better here

[junior valve]

i have like 21 and the cpu is still overheating

[copper swallow]

But don't get me wrong though the Noctua is also doing a lot

[copper swallow]

How is that even possible

Did you clean your PC? What about the thermal paste did you apply it right? Did you take off the plastic sticker?

[copper swallow]

Oh but you have an i9. Aren't they notoriously hard to cool?

[junior valve]

lock the power to 253 and temps are like 82c

all fans full blast ofc

[copper swallow]

100 celsius is crazy

[copper swallow]

First guy I've met who had more fans than me

Looks sick

Why do you need the Noctua again?

[junior valve]

i dont like the idea of water in my pc

[indigo bough]

Anyone got an alternative to the Dell G2725D? It seems amazing for the price but out of stock on amazon

I'll check elsewhere but if not any other monitors to go for?

[copper swallow]

I mean fair enough but why did you get the AIO to begin with?

[junior valve]

i found it at the dumpster

someone threw it

[copper swallow]

Maybe there's an issue with it hence the temps

[junior valve]

330w load at 100c all cores

[copper swallow]

Maybe Lenovo G27Q-30? Close to being the same specs with some slight differences. Should also be cheaper.

Same resolution and both QHD. The Dell has slightly higher refresh rate (165Hz vs 180Hz) and it's an IPS panel and not VA like the Lenovo.

Not sure what the price difference is for you, but for me they cost:

• Lenovo = $183
• Dell = $244

So you save $61.

[indigo bough]

bam

huge

idk anything about monitors and the different specs whatever, ideally id get oled but the price jump is crazy

[strange atlas]

I've bought 1000mbit internet they will come and install it in 10 days hell yeah

[indigo bough]

best investment ever, i love mine

[strange atlas]

i wonder if it will be so big difference than my 16 mbit current internet

[indigo bough]

defo.

[copper swallow]

It will lol

[strange atlas]

i mean there will be but like if its gonna be game changer type of thing

[copper swallow]

Huge difference, you'll love it

[strange atlas]

I hope

[copper swallow]

It 100% will I promise you

[strange atlas]

You are hyping me too much

[copper swallow]

Downloading games on Steam will take a fraction of a fraction of the time you're used to

[strange atlas]

currently it takes around 40 hours per AAA game

[copper swallow]

Yeah make that 30-60 minutes

[indigo bough]

@copper swallow cant seem to find it in the uk. any other options? possibly something oled but if its stupid expensive lmk

cooked

[strange atlas]

wait this actually might not be wrong

its 100 times better internet

[indigo bough]

takes me like 10 mins to download a 20 gig game

[strange atlas]

i wonder if my ssd will be good enough for it

[copper swallow]

Man I went from 20 mbps to 1000 mbps I'm telling you this will change everything

[strange atlas]

its working at sata speeds

apparently max is 550 mb/s in sata ssd so not enough right?

[strange atlas]

mine i really close to yours currently 16 mbit

[indigo bough]

i mean, up to u, i use nvme but its just a cost thing

[strange atlas]

I do have nvme but stupid asrock cant see my m2

[indigo bough]

i think the highest ive hit was like 950, not the full 1000

[strange atlas]

it only works with some ssds

[strange atlas]

thats more than alright with me

[indigo bough]

lol

its usually max like 850, plenty tho

[strange atlas]

I feel like even 100mbit is too much lets see what will happen

[indigo bough]

fyi when u are downloading stuff its like 8x slower than your browser speed

[strange atlas]

DAMN the upload is crazy

[indigo bough]

so if im downloading a game its gonna show like 100-120 usually

[indigo bough]

weird that its faster but who cares, 870 is plenty on download

[strange atlas]

Currently i normally get around 1 mb/s

But sometimes pops up to 2 mb/s if its the good day

so still w

[copper swallow]

playin a game will answer soon

[indigo bough]

all good bro

[indigo bough]

FIRE

lmaooooooooo

[strange atlas]

Ping doesnt change though right?

[indigo bough]

mine decreased a lil, might be because it was a different internet provider

[strange atlas]

maybe fiber gives better latency though

[indigo bough]

went from like 35 to 20

[strange atlas]

didnt think about that

I figured out what was making the rustling noise in my new laptop. Like 4 clips in the lower bezel broke off. Even though the bezel is slightly loose now, it still sits flush by itself. Should I take it in for warranty and not have it for a couple of weeks or just sit on it for now?

[young crest]

Are you surprised? You shouldn’t be

[plush wren]

[graceful robin]

it is simple you get 16mbps which is 2 MB/s and 10 GB which is 10240 MB so time will be 10240/2 which is 5120 sec

[fickle ivy]

Genuinely the slowest Internet I've ever used, even slower than using a VPN on the school wifi in the brick basement of the school

I am surprised how it is even possible to make wifi THIS BAD, 50mbps upload my ass when it genuinely takes 10 minutes to send a single god damn discord message

Fuck is it finally being decent enough that I don't have to wait minutes to send messages?

Nope I just connected to some other random wifi

[frail delta]

If the shipping is capped at $20, doesn't that make it... not free?

[thorny saddle]

good morning nerrds

[fickle ivy]

Yep and this shit ass hotel wifi is back to not letting me connect

Have to use some random open network that's probably gonna get my shit hacked

This is the fucking wifi I'm using and it somehow faster than the hotel wifi while maintaining a more stable connection

[distant frigate]

Holy shit

[distant frigate]
