almost 11

[south arrow]

That's a pretty solid uplift all things considered

[granite pelican]

almost 12

[solid crown]

wait is this the actual 5050 pcb?

thats hilarious

I do like how the new smaller pcbs allow flowthrough coolers though

[granite pelican]

for what reason

looks small ?

[solid crown]

yeah

[south arrow]

How is jawa?

Of the juice variety*

[solid crown]

the heck is jawa

[south arrow]

This individuals

Woops meant to turn off ping

[upper abyss]

used hardware marketplace?

[mortal jackal]

it is off

[sinful cobalt]

Lets start with a AM5 system first.

[mortal jackal]

but I'm good

[south arrow]

Oh ok it highlighted blue for a sec wasn't sure if my thumb slipped xD

[mortal jackal]

hope y'all are too

[clear canyon]

Done

[sinful cobalt]

Next is CL26 kit

[random junco]

cl0

[south arrow]

Some could say its gonna be tight

[clear canyon]

No need, got a 6000mhz cl30 kit

[sinful cobalt]

dont have the latest and greatest, unworthy system of the 5090 smh

[trim flicker]

skibidi toilet discord profile decoration.

[mortal jackal]

ffs

[clear canyon]

Discord is now officially cringe

[sinful cobalt]

Why are you giving me sobbing and rage reactions, u were the same person calling me immature, sure ill act immature now

[trim flicker]

if it wasnt any more clear that discord is struggling with money

[mortal jackal]

can we not

[clear canyon]

Huh?

[mortal jackal]

What if they nerfed streaming

[trim flicker]

like discord streams?

[mortal jackal]

Yes

Crazy high bandwidth

[clear canyon]

99% of the time, the emojis are not direct

[trim flicker]

that would be annoying

[sinful cobalt]

Modern Monetization sucks balls. My digital door app has fucking ads

[clear canyon]

@sinful cobalt

[mortal jackal]

Either way

I ain't paying for no discord cosmetics

[clear canyon]

Its all context based

[trim flicker]

i mean, discord has auto-built in bandwidth protection stuffs

[mortal jackal]

Streaming accounts for a ton of bandwidth passing through their infra

that's expensive

[clear canyon]

Same, they took away my only free one and im forever a free to play

[south arrow]

I only care about my emotes

[mortal jackal]

If I didn't pay for the bread, there's nothing else that's gonna pull me over the line

[sinful cobalt]

It doesnt matter-
Leave bitter shit and theres bitter aftertaste. Hope you note it. Goodnight.

[mortal jackal]

Nitro is a bad deal already

[south arrow]

If my Google rewards didnt pay for it id likely not use it and I only get the $3 one but still meh

[clear canyon]

Ur the only one that took it wrong. Gotta keep up with how this works

Its the internet

[mortal jackal]

frens

pls drop it and move on

[clear canyon]

Idk whats goin on

[trim flicker]

can we stop this pointless argument and talk about this segue, to our sponsor!

[mortal jackal]

Discord?

[sinful cobalt]

$15 a month for nitro sucks balls (my currency)

Raid shadow legends!

[clear canyon]

NOOOO!!

I dont need water proof shoes, i need 9999 free summons

[mortal jackal]

The waterproof gimmick is nice but they don't last

[trim flicker]

it goes from waterproof to water-resistant

[mortal jackal]

Not just the waterproofing

the shoes wear super quickly in general

[clear canyon]

I just take the water please

[sinful cobalt]

Expensive ass nitro and the stream cant even convert HDR back to SDR on the other end properly. Smh

[trim flicker]

i'd assume they just spray the shoe in a hydrophobic layer

[random junco]

im surprised discord is still in business

[mortal jackal]

It's the weave too

[clear canyon]

They use a water racist spray

[trim flicker]

ah

[mortal jackal]

Infinite funding rounds lol

but they're clearly either seeking a buyer or trying to go public

[clear canyon]

I feel like its gonna get rough when that happens

[mortal jackal]

It's already getting rough

[trim flicker]

didnt like an ex-activision COO or something similar join the discord team

[mortal jackal]

Something like that yeah

The fact that I can't disable quests...

[clear canyon]

Yes 😭

The worst person to be there

[trim flicker]

i think theres a setting somewhere

[mortal jackal]

Is there?

[clear canyon]

Yeah

[mortal jackal]

ah it's in data settings

[trim flicker]

i dont know where, but i swear there atleast was a setting

[mortal jackal]

If you opt out you might still see some ahhhhh

[compact hinge]

what are good alternatives for the team group t-force delta 6000 cl30?

[real wasp]

chat i picked up a phanteks eclipse g360 a just outside my building

currently switching my setup

[trim flicker]

im building a castle

[sinful cobalt]

literally anything u can find with the same specs

[south arrow]

Answered in tc2 as well uwu

[hallow jasper]

5060 too.

[south arrow]

Noiceee

Just lil guys

Can fit that into a good retro arcade rig though bets

[hallow jasper]

Actually, this is a 5060Ti

[south arrow]

Kinda convenient for what it is ❤️ sff wise

[upper abyss]

so smol

[upper abyss]

ts single or multiplayer ?

[trim flicker]

multiplayer, smp server

[gloomy sleet]

make the warwolf outside of it

[clear canyon]

Bro, thats so damn tiny lmao

[gloomy sleet]

that’s a normal size castle btw

[granite pelican]

good then

[clear canyon]

If only the gpu was good

[gloomy sleet]

if only it was power efficient

[granite pelican]

if it only works on linux

[upper abyss]

whats the tdp again

[gloomy sleet]

it does

[gloomy sleet]

i forgot but more then a 4060

[clear canyon]

3 trillion

[gloomy sleet]

145w

[clear canyon]

Mine was close

[gloomy sleet]

yep

[clear canyon]

😃

[upper abyss]

excuse me where the fuck is the generational uplift? this website gotta be wrong

[clear canyon]

Not really one

Only 5090 had a worth while uplift

And it has the peformance of what a 4090ti should have been

[gloomy sleet]

yeah lmao

30w more and minimal performance increase

[upper abyss]

yo this is giant news (like a few hundred MBs of vram)

[gloomy sleet]

the 5060 doesn’t even have the power efficiency benefit of the 4060 over the 3060

[clear canyon]

They should give us more vram

[gloomy sleet]

that’s like 2gb

[clear canyon]

3060 goated, awsome gpu bc of 12gig vram

[gloomy sleet]

software is cheaper then hardware

[upper abyss]

5070ti 16gb its like fine

but 5080? insane

[upper abyss]

i remember it very diff lemme research

[gloomy sleet]

the raw performance of the 4060 makes that barely an advantage

[upper abyss]

you are a troglodyte

[clear canyon]

Id disagree for non-gaming

[upper abyss]

also why tf do i have to differentiate Mb and MB

[clear canyon]

Your're*

[gloomy sleet]

considering the 55w difference

[gloomy sleet]

what non gaming task?

[upper abyss]

3/10 ragebait

[gloomy sleet]

oh i thought it was 20% off 8gb of usage lol

[clear canyon]

Ai and other vram heavy applications

[gloomy sleet]

on a 3060?

[upper abyss]

noo 😭 of the t-model

[gloomy sleet]

ok bucko

[clear canyon]

9/10*

[solid crown]

friend is giving me a 1050ti for my server 🥰 this is what friends are for

[gloomy sleet]

he’s a bad friend

[clear canyon]

Yeah, 12gig is pretty good for a 60 class card, its cheap vram

[random junco]

heyy so we're friends righttt

[upper abyss]

ngl was pretty weak, shoulda thrown in something like "average tomshardware user 💀 " or sum else stupid

[solid crown]

pcie power cards are expensive af

[gloomy sleet]

the vram doesn’t make much of a difference in gaming

[clear canyon]

I gave my friend a 4070ti and a 5800x3d, im a better friend ☺️

[gloomy sleet]

and for non gaming tasks your better off getting a higher end gpu

[ivory wave]

is there a big difference between 165hz and 240hz? no right

[solid crown]

lol

[solid crown]

there is

[clear canyon]

In*

[upper abyss]

js get 2 3060 cards for SLI fr

[upper abyss]

wheres that go

[ivory wave]

yeah theres a little difference

[gloomy sleet]

using a 3060 for ai is a power move

[clear canyon]

Im talking for cheap, you gotta pay an arm and a leg for 12 gigs or more compared to the 3060

[clear canyon]

Its actually not a bad move either

[ivory wave]

but im thinking of changing to a 1440p 165hz monitor from my 240hz 1080p

[gloomy sleet]

yeah but the 3060 isn’t good for stuff where vram is important

[random junco]

75 hz difference

[clear canyon]

Stay with 1440p

[upper abyss]

whyd they discontinue SLI at nvidia?

[gloomy sleet]

stay with 1440p

[random junco]

stay with 1440p

[clear canyon]

Id disagree, for gaming, yes, for ai stuff or something similar, no.

[ivory wave]

didnt say i have a 1440p

[gloomy sleet]

who the fuck is doing ai stuff on a non 90 series card bro

[ivory wave]

240hz is kind of useless to me as i barely play comp

so i feel like 1440p 165hz would be a smarter idea

[gloomy sleet]

get a 1440p monitor

[clear canyon]

Me and many ppl lol

[upper abyss]

just an insanely cheap way to get into AI since rtx 3000 i think still supports SLI and its 24GB of vram

[ivory wave]

yeah ill get one this month

[clear canyon]

Proof

[ivory wave]

im just 40€ short rn

[gloomy sleet]

buying a 1080p monitor in 2025 is a bad move over the $100 budget

[clear canyon]

3090 and 3090ti is the only one

[upper abyss]

not expensive at all 😭

[clear canyon]

For sli

[gloomy sleet]

you are not the average person

[random junco]

mine came yesterday 🔥

[gloomy sleet]

nice

[upper abyss]

fr? maen wth

[ivory wave]

im never buying a 1080p monitor, this one was a gift from like 5-6 years ago

[tidal geyser]

what is going on with the ram

[clear canyon]

Many budget ai hosting ppl has 3060(s)

[gloomy sleet]

bruh

[tidal geyser]

xd i was considering getting one for home assistant

[clear canyon]

Its great

[tidal geyser]

yup

[upper abyss]

me too btw

[ivory wave]

im genuienly curious of how much of a difference it is between 1080p and 1440p

[tidal geyser]

i have been considering a p40

[gloomy sleet]

wild move

[upper abyss]

visually? or perf

[tidal geyser]

but 500$ is just too much

[ivory wave]

visually

[swift moss]

Good to see ya here again

[upper abyss]

its like day n night

[gloomy sleet]

a p40

[ivory wave]

explain

[gloomy sleet]

tf is that

[random junco]

why not a p50

peel p50

[upper abyss]

like swapping from 60hz to 144 (to me)

[gloomy sleet]

who not a p60

[ivory wave]

so basically not being able to swap back to 60hz afterwards

[gloomy sleet]

yeah

[ivory wave]

i see

[tidal geyser]

wat

[upper abyss]

if id have to play at 1080p now id get cancer

[gloomy sleet]

what’s a p40 btw

[upper abyss]

40 inches

[random junco]

difference between 1080p and 1440p is not significant

[upper abyss]

thats your only clue

[upper abyss]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-stupid-drooling-patrick-star-spongebob-gif-12221001666588210206

[clear canyon]

Its pretty significant lol

[gloomy sleet]

the p40 with a 40 inch wingspan?

[upper abyss]

the p is your 2nd hint

your 3rd hint is that sim is a freak

[tidal geyser]

tesla p40

but wow is it trash when you compare it to a 3090

[gloomy sleet]

P being the us fighter designation from 1923 to 1945?

[tidal geyser]

if it was a 200$ card fine its fine but when a 3090 is only 250 more then yeeeaaa

[clear canyon]

😊

[random junco]

well i have been using a 1080p display for a couple years and got my first 1440p display yesterday
to help me understand the difference i made a quick html code where i could view two images at full screen of 1080p and 1440p
only difference is sharpness and i only noticed it on certain objects

[clear canyon]

What is the 1440p screen size

[tidal geyser]

but yea no im not gonna spend 750$ just for a gpu to use with home assistant

[gloomy sleet]

might get a second monitor

[tidal geyser]

rather gonna try and grab some 3060 12GB for 200$ if possible maybe 150

[clear canyon]

Whyyyyy!!!!!

[dawn tundra]

so ive been attempting to get the os onto a disc (im like 75% shure a usb wont work) and had to fddle with my laptop, but im tor'ing it now and i thonk i got it

[random junco]

i had 1080p 27 inch and now i have 31.5" curved 1440p

ips -> va btw

va usually has bad viewing angles but on a curved monitor its fine

[clear canyon]

Thats why, its 32in, 1440p has lower ppi at 1440p than 1080p does at 27in

[random junco]

feels like my ips

[clear canyon]

So its worse

[gloomy sleet]

it’s about the same

literally margin of era difference

[dawn tundra]

i feel like im still going to mess this up somehow

[gloomy sleet]

this is why i prefer 24 inch 1440p

[tidal geyser]

i was technically -60 cents overdrafted on my bank account a few days ago

wooooow

[clear canyon]

27in 1440p is goated

[gloomy sleet]

wait what’s 24 inch 1440p v 1080p 24

[gloomy sleet]

nah too big not enough PP(I)

[tidal geyser]

the new phone camera is fun

[clear canyon]

Not for me

Its perfect for me

[gloomy sleet]

dang 122 is wild

Perfect

[gloomy sleet]

163.1 ppi for 4k/27

[clear canyon]

What about 8k

[upper abyss]

btw why does rtx 5000 not have physX? like prolly 2€ to have it 😭

[clear canyon]

It does, 32bit

[gloomy sleet]

326 PPI for 8K/27

[dawn tundra]

windows 8.1 32 bit jumpscare .png

[clear canyon]

YEAHHHH BABY!!

[tidal geyser]

my picture is better

[tidal geyser]

why not 10

[clear canyon]

Nuh uh, mine is

[clear canyon]

Explode

[dawn tundra]

ythats the point

[gloomy sleet]

i have a 50” 8k tv somewhere actually

[dawn tundra]

8 kinda wasnt good

[upper abyss]

istg the tiktok linux propaganda is getting to me

[gloomy sleet]

[tidal geyser]

Mine is best

[clear canyon]

Tell them to explode

[tidal geyser]

look at the little boy

[clear canyon]

No, thats a heat sandwich

i already fell for it once 2 years ago and it was horrible

[clear canyon]

[lilac river]

Is ds4windows safe?

[clear canyon]

Nuh uh, i dont see it, therefor it doesn't exist

[dawn tundra]

😭

[tidal geyser]

im gonna play vtol vr tomorrow as i made space

[upper abyss]

i meaaan i use it idk tho

[upper abyss]

this right?

[dawn tundra]

surprisingly actualty good

[tidal geyser]

no

[dawn tundra]

well i got em free and i am using it for my dads pc

[hallow jasper]

I have boxes of these in storage. such garbage

[carmine yew]

if you care that much about physx, put in a 1660 for dedicated physx?

[upper abyss]

why not js a gt 1030 atp

[tidal geyser]

wat

[upper abyss]

or does it not have that

[tidal geyser]

why does a gpu that came out in 2025 not have a 32 bit thingy

[dawn tundra]

for how garbage they are the sound isnt the worst ive heard from such cheap speakers

[carmine yew]

because they're just too ass-tier to consider using

[hallow jasper]

It does, minus much older 32-bit support thats' relevant to like 3 games people care about

(none that I care about)

[tidal geyser]

not just hardware reasons but also software support of it

[dawn tundra]

ive tored the latest version of knopixx now im gonna try to put it on the dvd

[carmine yew]

https://www.pcguide.com/news/heres-every-game-affected-by-rtx-50-series-dropping-physx-32-bit-support/
Here's a list. And generally? nobody gave a shit.

[clear canyon]

I use these: https://a.co/d/1QRNi0K

[dawn tundra]

nice

[hallow jasper]

Man, I had those back in the mid to late 2000's.

[upper abyss]

i play like 3 of these games (or played), no physX now makes it impossible to play 😔

[clear canyon]

They are amazing

[tidal geyser]

nop

[carmine yew]

no it doesn't

[dawn tundra]

i have some sony tv speakers, i used to have a sub nut my old dog fried the amp over time, i kept the speaker tho

[carmine yew]

quit being freaking dramatic

[upper abyss]

it was sarcasm, sorry if that was unclear

[hallow jasper]

Eh, until you get some larger desktop speakers they're alright.

[tidal geyser]

i do not think there are any physx32 bit games that require it

[sleek ibex]

I use these speakers too

[carmine yew]

https://www.amazon.com/Creative-USB-Powered-Down-Firing-Subwoofer-Far-Field/dp/B07NWLWM9B/
These are shockingly good

[tidal geyser]

i really need to get me a sub

[trim flicker]

takes 1000 screenshots

[tidal geyser]

the annoying thing is that i need a active sub

[carmine yew]

I know a few who might be open to another in the `cule

[odd marsh]

they look so silly

[real wasp]

chat i have a problem

[carmine yew]

you're on this server, we already knew that

[drowsy sluice]

yo what do i do. i wanted to change the thermal paste on my cpu bc its been 5 years and i didnt change it once but my cooler is so big that one of the screws is under it and the only way to unscrew it is by taking out the gpu but for some reason the pci slot clip is broken and i cant unclip it. ive tried to do it with alot of stuff also i was pressing on it so hard that even my finger started bleeding a bit and the metal coverage (design thingy) bend... idk what to do. i at least need to change the thermal paste on my cpu

[real wasp]

with the phanteks g360a its supposed to have a power switch cable io cable right

well its missing

[odd marsh]

Lg C4 has 300x200 vesa mounts, I wish there was a mount for it that I could add speakers to the side

[carmine yew]

wat

power switches don't have i/o

[tidal geyser]

¨pain

[tidal geyser]

pic

[real wasp]

for the motherboard

[tidal geyser]

im a bit late

[hallow jasper]

So the two-pin cable for the power button is missing?

Is it new?

[real wasp]

yea

[drowsy sluice]

i need to fix it somehow idk what to do😭

[real wasp]

nope just picked it up in my building near me

[hallow jasper]

Regardless, contact Phanteks if you're not willing to rig it up on your own

[tidal geyser]

the cable coming from here is power on

[hallow jasper]

manual

[dawn tundra]

Just plop these onto the DVD right?

[tidal geyser]

i love phanteks

[real wasp]

this?

[tidal geyser]

mans blind

wait are you sure you said the case right

[real wasp]

yea

[tidal geyser]

mmmmmm no

is it a used or preowned case

[rose sorrel]

Got my self a optplex and was told it need that is cricled for it to power but what I have come to tell it’s a 5 pin to sata

I find Reddit post where linked a video where they used 8 - 24 pin to power the pc and GPU if I get regulars psu and 8 to 24 pin adapter I will be able to to eliminate that 5 to sata the best I can tell it run disc drive

So 8 to 24 pin would work right in reg psu ?

[carmine yew]

bro, no:

the left and right one matter

[hallow jasper]

Like these? https://lu.teufelaudio.com/varion-tv-and-loudspeaker-wall-mount-105265000?partner_id=blog-com.8859.teufelblog-com.494811.74149807.

[carmine yew]

these:

[dawn tundra]

I don't think im doing this right

[real wasp]

usb 3.0 is connected but idk where the power switch is

i cant see it lmao

[carmine yew]

can you find the power button

[odd marsh]

yup holy balls that is pretty much it, it would just need to work with a monitor arm, but I see the possibilities

[hallow jasper]

with a little more looking i bet something exists. or just have 5nail fab it lol

[real wasp]

its supposed to be here

[dawn tundra]

Is 5nail on rn?

[hallow jasper]

no

[odd marsh]

yeah, I haven't bother looking so far so this makes it more plausible

[dawn tundra]

Dang

[hallow jasper]

he's on vacation

[dawn tundra]

Ah

[carmine yew]

well, if they lost the cables, you can't do much about that.

Contact Phanteks Support, they're typically excellent, and they'll probably sell you a replacement board or cables.

[hallow jasper]

what are you even trying to do?

[sleek ibex]

I love how my first day on being in the Intel Insiders Discord, I see someone unironically consult someone to ZTT for a build list.... Talk about a good first impression

[real wasp]

cant i just rip it off from my old case lmao

[dawn tundra]

Use knopixx on that pc

[carmine yew]

but why Zip Tie Tuning

[odd marsh]

I was there for like a few hours then left LOL

[carmine yew]

almost guaratneed not the same plugs

[odd marsh]

Even for the Intel Shill it was too much

[dawn tundra]

The one running Windows server 2003

[hallow jasper]

Why do you have multiple files. Just download the ISO.

[hallow jasper]

is that second file down the ISO? You have file extensions turned off

turn them on

[dawn tundra]

Ok one sec

[real wasp]

my old case a aerocool pgs zauron

[carmine yew]

that doesn't tell me anything

[real wasp]

how much do the power switch cable usually cost

[carmine yew]

nobody is going to know if they're the same or not, you'll have to look yourself, but I almost guarantee they're not

[dawn tundra]

I used bittor from the official website to get it because the ones that were hosted from the colleges were down or just not letting me on probably due to them being in another country

[carmine yew]

idk, probably not too much, ask support

[hallow jasper]

these are the ones you want depending on the language

[real wasp]

just checked youre right lol

[dawn tundra]

?

[sleek ibex]

sorry wrong reply

[dawn tundra]

Oh okay

[sleek ibex]

Not only that..... But also saw a Jufus video too

[south arrow]

I'm only seeing 2 cables just his sata power and this lil white cable with the power of ones manual should all plug in easily and be able to see if missing anything ❤️

[hallow jasper]

and when you identify the ISO, you use whatever you use to burn it to a DVD or write it to a USB stick with Rufus

I haven't burned a DVD for like 15+ years so I have no idea how to do that anymore

[dawn tundra]

Yeah I've got that ISO and I'm planning on using the windows disc image burner but last time that I used it it didn't download the operating system on the disc and that's why I sent there for like 9 hours waiting for that hard drive to be reformatted

Okay use Rufus

Got it

[south arrow]

I'm pretty rusty but I trust a good vid or two shouldn't be so bad

[hallow jasper]

can this system boot to USB?

[dawn tundra]

Last time I checked the BIOS I did not see an option for USB and I didn't see an option to add anything so I'm assuming not

[hallow jasper]

well that'll be a bit of a problem

can always try it..

[dawn tundra]

Why

I mean it should work

[hallow jasper]

Why?

[south arrow]

Windows installation tool is always my goto for a clean install with a fat32 usb takes but a few mins

[hallow jasper]

Well if you can't boot to a USB device, you're not going to be able to boot the USB device you're making lol

[dawn tundra]

Yeah I'm using a DVD I have a few spare blank ones that will definitely fit their 8 GB

[hallow jasper]

Ok i'm just not following, above you said Rufus

[south arrow]

Feel free to watch at 1.5 speed for efficiency. Trust use your disc for movies and music ❤️ https://youtu.be/BmJoT2ZkobY?si=Pf_byLgYsgvMOouy

[hallow jasper]

He's booting some weird Linux distro

[dawn tundra]

I mean last time that I made a bootable drive with USB I did it with just regular windows media maker

[south arrow]

Oh i see

[dawn tundra]

Well it's for running the computer on a operating system that's based on the disc

[hallow jasper]

or at least thats what he was asking about, but with how this is going I don't know anymore

[dawn tundra]

Instead of reformatting

Hrmm

[dawn tundra]

Instead of booting from the hard drive

[tidal geyser]

he did not flash the iso on the disk just formatted it to some bullshit fat32 or smn and dragged the iso over

[dawn tundra]

Yeah I haven't done anything yet

[carmine yew]

RUFUS > Windows Media Creation Tool

[dawn tundra]

Yeah I noticed that pretty quickly

[hallow jasper]

yeah thats not going to work unless you're using ventoy

could be worse, some people download the media creation tool and just copy the executable to the USB expecting that to work

[elder quarry]

DD

[south arrow]

Whatevers clever sorry cant be more help on the disc iso front very rusty

[tidal geyser]

most of the people in my class did that 😦

[dawn tundra]

But the main reason I'm trying to do this is to get around a password

[elder quarry]

What

[royal stone]

Need help building a pc for my friend, his budget is only €1000 tho

[tidal geyser]

are you on phone

[elder quarry]

How

[grizzled frost]

get your friend to join the discord and go to #1106613567966429224

[tidal geyser]

yes you are

[royal stone]

Yes

[real wasp]

power sw cable missing lmao

[tidal geyser]

when you join a server check all the chats

[dawn tundra]

I am too right now because using it to send pictures of the laptop while I'm doing it to make sure I'm doing this right

[royal stone]

Got a lot of channels hidden, didn’t even know there was a channel for that

[real wasp]

cant i just power it on through the motherboard with a screwdriver or smth

[grizzled frost]

hence why "channel and roles" exists

[south arrow]

Misread

Get around password hrmm lost me

[royal stone]

forgot how bad mobile discord is though ngl, thanks for the help tho guys

[south arrow]

Support should send pretty quickly not sure if its not hiding somewhere

[real wasp]

how do i ask them

tbf this is not even my case i jsut picked it up in my building where stuff is given away

[south arrow]

Show a pic of the connection or issue you're having if missing a cable and maybe the manual showing x cable being included

[south arrow]

Oh i see

[real wasp]

how long would it take tho

[south arrow]

Unsure if it was a pickup if they'll send you one without a model number and receipt. Refering to the online manual would be my goto

To ensure setup is proper probs just a few bucks though if I had to guess on Amazon. The online manual will also have the exact cable name*

[lilac river]

Yuh

[carmine yew]

sure

or get one of these:
https://www.amazon.com/Desktop-External-Extension-Computer-Motherboard/dp/B0D2HSRDHQ

[south arrow]

Kinda baller ngl

[real wasp]

its fine if i do it that way right? just a bit annoying lmao

[bronze jay]

Is anyone else having trouble running steam games in windows

[carmine yew]

only you

[south arrow]

Not lately what titles?

[bronze jay]

I'm on a fresh installation of windows 11 and it crashes the whole computer

Any. Doom eternal namely.

[hallow jasper]

what does

[south arrow]

Hrmm

[bronze jay]

I thought the problem was Linux. It's not. I'm also not in the latest xriver. Because I heard it causes issues

[carmine yew]

that's definitely a "something's not right in your computer" problem

[bronze jay]

I'm so stressed and upset. I just want to play my games.

[hallow jasper]

Game runs fine here

[south arrow]

Get the latest driver via the app

Gameready *

[bronze jay]

The latest NVIDIA driver?

[south arrow]

If you have a nvidia gpu yiss and its not up to date

The app will tell you

[bronze jay]

I had the latest driver and it still crashed

So I reverted to 566

[south arrow]

Hrmmmm id boot down and check all my connection and be sure they're firmly inserted

[hallow jasper]

Game is old, I'd hope they'd have something recent on a fresh install. THey've just got an unhappy system.

[bronze jay]

The video looks normal. I don't think the card is dying.

I have an msi 4070 Ventus

[unborn patio]

can some one help me compare amd to intel for gameing

[bronze jay]

I don't know what else I can possibly do. It's like I'm cursed.

I also reseated my ram and card.

[south arrow]

To verify your game crashed? Or you get freezez/blue scrrens?

[bronze jay]

It crashes the whole computer

[carmine yew]

that's what reviews do

[hallow jasper]

What do you want to know

gamers nexus/hardwareunboxed should get you the basics

[bronze jay]

Wolfenstein new colossus seems to be working

[unborn patio]

that where i chould get more preformance for 600 euro both need mobo cpu and ram

[bronze jay]

There's still time for crashes

There we go. Total system failure.

[south arrow]

Blue screens?

[bronze jay]

Not even

[hallow jasper]

We don't know if your memory is good, if you're seeing any overheating, if there are some unstable settings in the BIOS (if its an old BIOS for that matter), etc..

[bronze jay]

It just goes black and restarts

[hallow jasper]

Heck, could be the PSU

so many things to test for

[bronze jay]

It was working before I tried switching to linux

[azure topaz]

goes black like it turned off then it turns on automatically?

or go black but the computer doesnt turn off

[bronze jay]

Yes

[azure topaz]

psu

[carmine yew]

go see what parts you can buy for 600 euro (don't forget a cpu cooler, too)

And then compare the CPU Performances as listed in the reviews.

[south arrow]

Id start with connections but is odd could be psu

[azure topaz]

yeah

[hallow jasper]

If you want to effectively troubleshoot, drop any and all preconceptions like that. Otherwise you'll get no where.

[azure topaz]

obviously its some system instability but id be sus of psu first

[gloomy sleet]

4060 but close enough

[unborn patio]

i dont need cooler cus i would be reuseing my old one have the mounting things for lga 1700 and am5 as well

[bronze jay]

I went back to Windows anyways

I don't think it's a power issue because sometimes I get a short blue screen

[carmine yew]

I'd suggest looking at: 7700x, 9700x, and 14700k and Core Ultra 265K

[azure topaz]

265k meta af

400$ for board cpu and cooler

[carmine yew]

he's europe, so diff

[unborn patio]

thats the i5 right ?

[azure topaz]

i7

[hallow jasper]

New intel chips come out soon and you can just immediately throw one in.... oh, wait

[carmine yew]

i7

[unborn patio]

intels new names is stupid

[azure topaz]

oh cringe disregard then

[unborn patio]

what the hell is cringe about living some where that acsualy good

[hallow jasper]

he didn't mean it, move on

[azure topaz]

cringe as in the pricing isnt the same as here so its not as good of a deal

[unborn patio]

its trump and the tarifs like befour then its was almost same

[azure topaz]

bro

[hallow jasper]

If you have two OSes crashing in games... i mean

[azure topaz]

its just cause you dont have the sale 😭

[south arrow]

Very sus

[bronze jay]

I'm going to run a stress test

[hallow jasper]

OCCT, the ones that stresses both the CPU and GPU at the same time

[unborn patio]

we have a shit load of sales but some of them are like not even worth it

[azure topaz]

id just do the power test cause thatll stress the comps to their limit

[bronze jay]

Yes I'm doing occt

[azure topaz]

would confirm the psu if it goes out during that

[bronze jay]

Its stable

[azure topaz]

its been2 minutes

no tf it aint

[bronze jay]

Alright

[hallow jasper]

isn't that what i'm talking about

[azure topaz]

oh is this ia different person

im sorry i just woke up

[hallow jasper]

there is a combo test that'll just hit everything at once

[bronze jay]

What's it called

[hallow jasper]

its right there in the list of stress tests, i don't have OCCT in front of me. on my work laptop

[azure topaz]

i think its just "CPU+GPU"

[hallow jasper]

or Power?

[azure topaz]

had to download occt off my fileshare for this

it might be the power test

[bronze jay]

I have occt running

[azure topaz]

its power and set the instruction set to avx2

or if you have ryzen avx512

[bronze jay]

Ok

[south arrow]

AVX10 whennn

[hallow jasper]

Power

[azure topaz]

yeah

[bronze jay]

Should they all be avx 512 them

[hallow jasper]

its like Prime95 and Furmark at the same time

[bronze jay]

I have a ryzen 9 5900x

[azure topaz]

(fun fact thats actually not that heavy cause p95 takes too much cpu reesources away from furmark)

[hallow jasper]

sure

[bronze jay]

It's running

[azure topaz]

if you do 14/16 threads of p95 and then furmark gpu test youll be at a higher wattage usually

[south arrow]

[bronze jay]

I think it's some kind of cursed driver issue

Still no errors

I think it might have to do with steam specifically

[hallow jasper]

Doesn’t sound like it

[swift moss]

brooo wtf what happened to the prices lmfaoo I just checked my bank statement and last time I went it cost me 42 bucks for 2

[hallow jasper]

At all

[bronze jay]

I get a blue screen sometimes and other times I get a black screen

And the blue screen itself crashes

I'll try running Minecraft with shaders

[south arrow]

Also was smooth on my end but heavy dips in fps considering (nothing unplayable or below 260+ fps but still not the avg 600-800+)

[bronze jay]

Alright occt isn't going to crash my computer. I'm trying Minecraft.

[gloomy sleet]

windowed btw

[azure topaz]

cause thats how you have to take screenshots

[south arrow]

Did you check all your connections with the pc off?

[lethal bay]

FLOPPER

[azure topaz]

herm

[gloomy sleet]

borderless windowed:

[bronze jay]

I reseated my ram and gpu

[lethal bay]

you wanna see some dumb shit

[azure topaz]

do you see what game im playing

[gloomy sleet]

yes

[azure topaz]

do you expect the borderless windowed option to work or allow screenshots

[gloomy sleet]

does it not have a borderless windowed mode

[south arrow]

Id check everything just in case maybe the pcie connections etc just for sanity

[gloomy sleet]

yes

[plush wren]

is the amd's stresstest thingamajid in their software viable? lol

[azure topaz]

you are wrong

[gloomy sleet]

how

[azure topaz]

😐

idk man because it doesnt fucking work what do you want me to tell you

[gloomy sleet]

how though

[lethal bay]

flopper

[gloomy sleet]

it’s borderless windowed lmao

[azure topaz]

yooo very nice

can it do 34

[lethal bay]

no

do you see the VDD tho lmao

[azure topaz]

oh what wow

[lethal bay]

they scale weird af

[azure topaz]

do odd primaries post on am5 idk how that works

[south arrow]

That'd be tightttt

[azure topaz]

cause if you tried 35 and it didnt work that might be why

[azure topaz]

yusss

[lethal bay]

cl28 at 1.33v? 👍
cl26 at 1.43v? 😠

[lethal bay]

no

35 doesnt post at all and 34 BSOD's as soon as karhu starts

[azure topaz]

yeah it usually is around 100mv per step so youre prolly close 😭

or just a hardwall

[lethal bay]

I need the mpower bro to unlock pmic

[azure topaz]

i dont think my kit likes c26 im not sure

[lethal bay]

I think these do c26 at 1.45v deadass

im just locked to 1.43

[south arrow]

Bios settings to allow highvoltage enabled? If applicable *

[lethal bay]

nah

[south arrow]

Thats fair I've seen a few miners burn out their sticks

[azure topaz]

his kit just dont allow it

locked PMIC

[south arrow]

Still some decent sticks we take it as a w myte be the best ones I've seen mac with yet

Pretty sure*

[lethal bay]

nah I have a 6000c26 1.4v kit that eat these for breakfast

but that kit was also 3x the price

[south arrow]

Tempted to push mine now lol

[lethal bay]

I paid $65 for these goobers and they're spitting distance from the god bins lmaoooo

[gloomy sleet]

spitting distance?

[south arrow]

Slang: Close* or within range

[gloomy sleet]

literally never heard anyone say that in my entire life

[lethal bay]

NA expression ig

[gloomy sleet]

it’s a weird one

since spitting distance is like 5 meters that isn’t that close

[bronze jay]

@azure topaz so like I'm running a super heavy minecraft modpack and it's working fine

That further leads me to believe this is a driver issue

[azure topaz]

on two os'es?

[bronze jay]

I'm in windows

[azure topaz]

werent you crashing in both

[rose stream]

What's the modpack in question?

[bronze jay]

I'll go back to Linux when I'm less burnt out

[gloomy sleet]

irrelevant but i tried a terraria shader pack it changed my life unironically

[bronze jay]

Yes I was crashing in both, never tried minecraft in linux since having the steeam issue though

[gloomy sleet]

terraria with actual light and shadows is a unique experience

[knotty coyote]

yall

[rose stream]

Worth a shot, I bet.

[south arrow]

Notes Vaux can spit 15 feet man's secretly a camel

i need recommendations for a 3d modeling (cad/ physics sim ) for 10th grade
(learning fabrication and welding)

[bronze jay]

here is something interesting. the game is being choppy.

[gloomy sleet]

5 metres is pretty normal

[bronze jay]

It never did that before.

[south arrow]

Haven't tried im awhile tbh

[knotty coyote]

laptop btw

[gloomy sleet]

a 5090

[bronze jay]

Like it's fucking unplayable

[azure topaz]

is occt still open 💀

[knotty coyote]

im not very educated on all the parts and what not

[bronze jay]

yes but not running

I closed it

[gloomy sleet]

what’s your budget

[knotty coyote]

around 5k

dont want to spend more than 3.5k

[bronze jay]

I'll try dedotating more wam

[gloomy sleet]

so basically you need the most powerful gpu on the market

[azure topaz]

5k budget but dont want to spend more than 3.5k so your budget is 3.5k

[knotty coyote]

ok

[gloomy sleet]

same with cpu but a bit less important

[bronze jay]

I want it to be a driver issue because driver issues don't cost money

[azure topaz]

hes doing 10th grade cad

what do you mean you need the most powerful gpu on the market

[gloomy sleet]

you need a gpu that can render entire movies

[knotty coyote]

i mean i can but i dont want to

[random junco]

meet inbetween 4.25k

[gloomy sleet]

cad is cad whatever grade of cad it is

[azure topaz]

cad is not crazy intensive depending on what youre doing

[knotty coyote]

i do also need cad recommendations

like software

[bronze jay]

@azure topaz it's working well. I had to allocate more ram. This makes me think it's a steam problem

[azure topaz]

i still think theres something up with your system but if youre happy im happy

[bronze jay]

No the games still aren't working

I'm willing to try anything you tell me to

You're the boss. I don't know how to handle this shit.

[azure topaz]

DDU? reinstall windows? disable any cpu oc if you have one

[bronze jay]

I already did ddu and reverted to an older nvidia driver. I will check my bios to make sure overclocking is disabled.

[south arrow]

Just a clear cmos will do (sets all to stable defaults)

[azure topaz]

pbo counts as a cpu oc especially curve optimiser

[bronze jay]

I'm on a new installation of windows

Xmp was disabled I just enabled it because my ram is 3200mhz not 2133

[knotty coyote]

i need a good cad software that is user friendly

[bronze jay]

Which ram slots am I supposed to use

[azure topaz]

2/4

[tidal geyser]

2 and 4

[knotty coyote]

no such thing as right click on touchpad

[bronze jay]

I'm using the ones further from the cpu

[azure topaz]

2 and 4

[tidal geyser]

no 2 and 4

[tidal geyser]

there is?

but again get a mouse

[bronze jay]

Yes

The one second to closest to the cpu and the one furthest from it

[knotty coyote]

should i get a thinkpad for my wtv

[robust trail]

holy shit I think my new desktop may be... a bit too big.

[bronze jay]

That's 2 and 4 correct

[south stump]

I’m thinking of getting a new 4K IPS monitor for my pc, does anyone have any good suggestions at a reasonable price?

[bronze jay]

After enabling xmp, my computer blue screens

[south stump]

Thanks

[tidal geyser]

what cpu and what ram speed

[bronze jay]

Even though my ram is 3200

[robust trail]

and it weighs 85 pounds wtf

[bronze jay]

Xmp set it to 3200mhz instead of 2133

[tidal geyser]

do not go for that rather go for something else not 60hz

[bronze jay]

I have a ryzen 9 5900x

[odd marsh]

That’s a pretty respectable size

[tidal geyser]

this one should be ok https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/LHmNnQ/msi-mag-274urfw-270-3840-x-2160-160-hz-monitor-mag-274urfw

Imgburn I feel like was the other one but been a min

Getting the biggest I can fit, mostly wanted something deep for the C4 42

[carmine yew]

if it doesn't work for you, try ninite.com

[little berry]

Which one of these should i grab i only really need the performance of the 750w corsair but im considering the phanteks incase i upgrade in the future

[carmine yew]

price?

[dawn tundra]

oh ok

[crimson temple]

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1874643-REG/pny_vcg5070t16tfxpb1_o_geforce_rtx_5070_ti.html

insane deal

[carmine yew]

they're both really good, but the price will matter

[bronze jay]

It's unlikely for two ram cards to fail simultaneously. I'll try using just one and then the other.

[little berry]

Corsairs like 135 and the phanteks is 200

Both are on sale

[peak knot]

i have a 132"x36" work space in my room and its still not enough

[carmine yew]

do you plan to get a 5090 or anything like that?

[little berry]

Nah

[knotty coyote]

whats a good cad software for a "budget" laptop
(3[ish]K

[peak knot]

im waiting on my parents to move out of my house so i can move my bed out of this room and make it just an office

[carmine yew]

750's plenty. I ran an i9 and a 7900 XT on a 750

[odd marsh]

For a man like you, I can see that it would be too small lol

[little berry]

Im running a 7800xt for now but i might end up getting something better

[little berry]

Is 135 a good price, it feels like with how “cheap” the 1200w is that its almost a waste not to get it

[carmine yew]

depends on your market

but not counting sales, 135 is fine

[little berry]

Oh ok thanks for the advice

[bronze jay]

It's a ram issue. Because with xmp I can't even sign in. I just hope it's not the controller on the motherboard.

[dawn tundra]

should i select either of the dvd high compatibility or mode2xa instead of mode 1 options?

or just leave it

My motherboard came with this screw, it was in a little bag called m2 screw. but none of the standoffs on the board fit it, or need it, those are all preinstalled with those latch types. I assume it might be for a more standard m.2 standoff? but just wanted to make sure.

no m2 is the size and shape (of the screw)

I’m sorry lmaooo

There lol

[peak knot]

yeah its more of a extra if you need it, not required

[whole kayak]

aahhhh

alright, well then I'll need to figure out where it goes lol. none of the screws on the board look like that one hahah

it'd def be an upgrade, but don't expect worlds out of it

guys whats the best pc mouse ( can be 2nd hand) for under 60 pound

the best mouse depends on what kind of features you want, like mouse weight, palm size, and grip style, mouse shape, etc.

also just aesthetics

that's got a pretty veneer dude

[trim gyro]

this is the mouse I use, vaxee np-01s

but I also just use a pebble mouse on my laptop

[rigid fjord]

36g basically added to a 151g mouse

[knotty coyote]

for my cad work /fab?

[rigid fjord]

tbh, you could look at legion 5's using an amd cpu

[knotty coyote]

link?

[rigid fjord]

country?

[knotty coyote]

america

central

is amd better than i7

[bronze jay]

So far the only steam game that works is call of duty infinite warfare

Wdym

[bronze jay]

Yeah it's a hardware issue.

[rigid fjord]

ram you can get elsewhere instead, also leaving it with the 512gb ssd inside still allows you to add a second drive to the laptop @knotty coyote

[knotty coyote]

w

[knotty coyote]

what ether port

[bronze jay]

I'll reseat my ssd

[kindred halo]

There's only a singular port
The one on the right (ThinkPad T470s)

[rigid fjord]

all legions basically comes with 2x sodimm slots and 2x m.2 slots

[knotty coyote]

i mean ur router or wtv

[kindred halo]

LAN1

[knotty coyote]

nice

[rigid fjord]

1Gbe port, the router be the same

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/VgKRXR - My most loser tier build yet

Oh wait I accidentally listed it with a 1070 ti

[rigid fjord]

if this was 2021, this would have been a super solid build tbh

[kindred halo]

This is unfortunately not 2021

[rigid fjord]

exactly

[kindred halo]

Fixed it https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qTVy2x

[kindred halo]

Quickest upgrade could be literally ANY other AM4 CPU that isn't Zen/Zen+

There's a 5500 or 5600 I think for ~80

5500 for 90, 5600 for 105

5700X for 135

[rigid fjord]

5600/5600x/5700x/5700x3d basically

[kindred halo]

5600 is the most realistic option

Although I wouldn't bother much with a machine like this

That 105 can go into building something that's actually serviceable for more roles other than being a stopgap

[bronze pewter]

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/V3HQ2x how can i make this list better at the same price

[candid bolt]

Whats the best am4 mobo?

[kindred halo]

Technically X570

[rigid fjord]

b550 unless you go for the likes of a ROG

[rigid fjord]

actually no

[kindred halo]

Highest available chipset according to AMD

I was going to say B550 until I realised that X chipsets existed

[rigid fjord]

highest chipset doesn't make it the best boards

[kindred halo]

Interessant,,,,,,

[rigid fjord]

multiple b550's perform better than several x570's

[trim flicker]

Boat

[kindred halo]

Sorry I usually see X chipsets being better than B </3

[rigid fjord]

a small fleet of them

[fiery plover]

Do 3060's have low profile gpus? Or only 3050 has them for the 30 series?

[rigid fjord]

they're not, especially vrm wise, there's only 4 of the x570's worth touching, otherwise best to avoid them

[jaunty apex]

i think so

Theoretically scamming isn't scamming

[rough sparrow]

what do i do in your opinion.
I need a new monitor and want 240hz, 2k quality, fast ips (good colors), slim design. but thats not possible with 300 euro.

So here are my practical options:

1. Stay 2K + IPS + slim + good colors, but drop 240Hz to 165Hz
   • This gets you stunning visuals, smooth gaming, and a sleek monitor.
   • Refresh rates above 165Hz give diminishing returns in most games anyway.

2. Go 240Hz + IPS + slim design, but drop resolution to 1080p
   • You get super smooth gameplay and great colors.
   • But image won’t be as sharp or detailed as 2K.

i wanna buy a new monitor^

[plush wren]

Bro used GPT

[lethal bay]

1440p is always the answer

[jaunty apex]

Imo I prefer 1440p 165 (I run mine at 144)

[plush wren]

FUck 1440p

[jaunty apex]

Competitive is the only real reason youd need 300hz

[plush wren]

lets see the ppi diff between 24" 1080p and 27" 1440p

[rough sparrow]

yeah to summarize it

[lethal bay]

the difference between 144hz and 240hz is nice but not as noticeable as people make it out to be

[plush wren]

oh 17 ppi diff

[plush wren]

save more money 🔥

[rough sparrow]

so do i get 1440p 165?

[lethal bay]

thats my vote

[jaunty apex]

^

[rough sparrow]

lowkey got money but i wanna build a 2k pc 🔥

[plush wren]

what games r u playing btw

[rough sparrow]

[plush wren]

[lethal bay]

yeh

[jaunty apex]

Majoras Mask?

[plush wren]

i mean lvl 6 isnt even that high idk

[trim gyro]

240hz is so worth it

[lethal bay]

Didnt say it was

it was simply a comment

[rigid fjord]

you do realise 1440p is not 2k right?

[trim gyro]

i feel like 240hz to 480hz is less of a difference though

[rough sparrow]

2560x 1440 is 2k right? 😭

[trim gyro]

compared to 60hz to 120hz or 120hz to 240hz

2.56K my friend'

[rough sparrow]

thats true

[rigid fjord]

nope, that's 1440p

[rough sparrow]

wait what 😭?

[rigid fjord]

2k is 2048 x 1080
