uhh, I don't wanna use mac os
Why not?
What’s wrong with Mac OS?
idk too ecosystem for me
It’s not even bad
MacOS and Whisky? Perfect pairing for single player games
then literally any will do. T2 versions of Linux or Windows via Bootcamp
the pros are well priced
if base model had 120hz display it would be great
also I don't really need another laptop lol
The 16 pro max is actually the only phone id ever consider recommending for photography
Well 16 series*
Aren’t there androids with better cameras?
not really
vivo x200 pro looks great IMO but unavailable in NA
iphones yeah reliable pick (which is why i use them)
lmao it gets thrashed by my pixel, I compared it with my sister's phone
You have to spend the price of a used car to get those androids
Um
yeah but pixel 9 pro $999 and has a slower chip than like the iphone 14
How much is the pro max? $1.2k?
What phone does she have? An iphone 3g 
@steel umbra
$1099 or something
16 pro
got mine for 700 lol
Idk usd, but mine was $1.7k cad
So around there
Hopefully going to build this soon https://novelkeys.com/products/gingham-keyboard-kit-picnic-edition?_pos=1&_sid=b3d91d5d7&_ss=r
That’s the value of my daily driver (car) lol
Show the comparison you did
pixels are on sale very frequently
I have one of those new pixel 9 pro folds and I almost never use it
yes because they are not worth $999 lol
what makes you think I have my sister's phone right now
Yah pixels I’ve seen the newest go for $700
It wasn’t through Google, 3rd party but one I trust
dunno what google was thinking when they priced the 9 pro
It just... it's fine for not carrying an iPad to watch TV or whatever when I'm traveling but that's about it
bought it for the software, idrc about hardware in phones nowadays
that its going to be on sale?
I should go grab it, charge it and update it.
I have no reason for a phone with 4 billion cpu cores and 1 billion gpu cores anymore so I never buy new
I really hate iOS, and I can say that cause my last phone was an iPhone 15
Why?
look , thers some setting which idk of makes the screen suddenly too bright? it must be some sdr setting
hated the gestures, just not for me
You don’t have to use gestures lol
also it was buggy af
ive compared my 16 pro max to my dslr, and it gets damn near close to the quality from the my dslr’s aps-c sensor
the newest dev ios beta is not great right now.. you may have been using that. A lot of strange people install developer betas and complain about performance.
its a dev beta no shit?
Ios 26 is still in beta, so are you surprised theres issues?
i wonder why the DEVELOPER BETA is buggy
is anyone familiar with this issue?
I had to frequently hard reset it cause it would get stuck at something (I don't really remember what it was, I had that phone for 5 months)
I didnt say it’s buggy
I have rebuilt my apps for the dev beta and they work... sorta.
I said it’s laggy, my phone can’t handle it
obviously
Its the same process every major iOS update
nah in general even when I got the device out of the box it was really buggy
It uses too many resources to do anything other than look at the Home Screen lol
i reboot and black is now grey on my oled?
also I cannot use a phone with a 60hz screen lol
That’s why I want to upgrade to a model with 8GB ram, I always run out in browsers
yeah, I somehow still have my apple employee credentials available 10 years after leaving the company so I get quite early builds
any ideas? i think it’s hdr
@trim flicker back when i still had an ipod touch (like 11 or 12 years old) i stupidly installed the beta release for ios, and i lost access to the app store until the full release of the ios version 
Wow lol, i just sign up for the dev betas when they come out and report bugs whenever i see them to their respective developers
tbh I am enjoying my pixel
Every update I get that’s major gets worse, same thing happened when I updated to 18, but I got used to it
it has been way more reliable
good bug reports are good. I did the same with the vision pro but that's still trash
wait, YOU HAD A VISION PRO?
I can’t get used to this tho, actually get pissed off how much my phone lags to the point it sits frozen for minutes
I have
Yeahh, the vision pro is more of a concept to be honest.
can someone help me build a pc?
my budget is 1500$
my local retailers are tms.co.il
the pc will be for mainly for video games and looking high performance
i dont really care about RGB i just want it to be beatiful but i prefer performance over beauty
Extras/peripherals required?: no
Existing parts to reuse: my monitor
rest in peace your 3500$ bro
yeah, it is not great
As much as people hate on the camera button for the iphone 16 lineup, its actually really useful (if you have large hands)
I work in the industry. It cost me $0
ah, sounds like a good deal
Hasn’t every phone had a volume button for camera for the longest time?
What kind of industry 😏😏😏 (im sorry, bad joke)
I don't buy hardware unless it is ubiquity stuff because I'm a privileged asshole
also didn't like that both sides had buttons
They are probably working on a second one, apple absolutely knew it wasnt gonna sell well
Im talking about the dedicated camera button that is on the iphone 16/16pro series
That’s my point
privileged asshole sounds about right
Why do you need a dedicated button if it’s already existing on another one
why not
It works for all the camera features
ngl I hate that idea and everyone who copied it
it's useless sure but it's something 🤷♂️
The concept and execution is quite bad. The software is bad. Using it for actual XR work? Amazing.
The camera button is something i’d have to see in person to judge
There’s no scenario where you need an extra button instead of bringing the phone towards you and clicking it on the screen lol
samsung and every chinese company will probably copy it next year lets be honest
You either dont do photography, or are an “apple bad android good” person
the question is, is it 3500$ good
For XR, yes. For consumer? No.
nah, its just stuck at the most inconvenient spot possible, I would press it all the time when typing, and yes I generally prefer android but I look at products in a non-fanboy way
Yeah, it was definitely something that was pretty cool, and i liked the design of the vision pro, but theres just too much downsides for it to be a good product as a whole
@robust trail heres some shots ive taken on my 16pm
When they have a single SoC, lighter frame and can do the same things at a $2500 price? It will be worth it 🙂
Its not inconvinient for me since i have gargantuan hands… my hands make the fucking 6.9” 16 pro max look like a normal sized phone

Ive heard that the headband is reallly comfy
thers this annoying ah bright filter which is auto applied to sdr vidoes. any fixes?
the headband is but the brick weight is not lol
I heard that it starts to hurt after a while
I mean I have big hands too but I'd rather just not have it
Yeah im not surprised lol
they wanted a "sleek" design for the headband. It is extremely uncomftable to wear other than that
I’m waiting for AR glasses to get better and have a better price
I love the idea of walking around with a tv screen in front of me
My hands make alot of stuff look small
and looking like a freak 
I've been hunting for a new HMD for long flights
How? You don’t see anything
I look like someone wearing glasses and walking
do you have frying pans instead of hands?
oh AR glasses, thought you talk about the vision pro
No
but they're all a bit on the poop side right now. The Xreal glasses are okay but the option for prescription lenses are not good.
I don’t want that, those people look crazy
@charred kiln ipad mini 4th gen, 13” macbook pro, and 17” macbook pro for reference
Especially the weird ass eyes you can add to the front
good god
Can’t believe it took 100 years to go from horse carriage to now
Do a Cola can
can anyone pls help me
Is that 320ml?
Yeah
I dont have any coke cans, but i have grown-up juice
can anyone help me>
Damn
?
#1027757333117415424 #1106613567966429224 or emergency services

@trim flicker
Insane
yeah he does have frying pans as hands
Yeah, wanna see something funny
now do a basketball (/j)
?
I can actually palm one
tf are you playing on
Im watching yt
no, the screen in the pic
yt is boring
A tv?
agree with every bone of my body
tf happening
nvm I do not agree with every bone of my body
@charred kiln
woah
Gg
oh shit the AR glasses are on sale
looks like ur gpu did a stinky
or the monitor
nah it’s fine
I fucking hate how this container looks sooo small in my hands
windows or gpu tbh
wait
100% windows
what mouse do you use 💀
it just fucking died
The biggest mouse from logitech
The g900 (same as the g903 but without the lightspeed thing)
it would open microsoft 365 copilot everytime i press shift
I use a g502
do you dwarf it too?
I use a deathadder v3 pro btw
Ill show
my logitech GPX2's dongle decided to disintegrate on me so im on razer now
Insane
holy shyte
@charred kiln ignore the look, its almost 10 years old
Well 8 to be exact
lol butterfly clicking
what 2 do
Meh
what
good god ur desk is messy
@gloomy sleet get better stabilizers
like?
Idk
the stabs were working fine like 10 minutes ago
or just fix it with lube lmao
i press the space bar a bit too hard and it just does that apparently
I do lot of things
it has lube
what board?
there is a piece of plastic sticking out of the housing where the stem and housing makes contact
it’s like half a millimetre out
@charred kiln ya know how people always say “10 and 2” for driving?
who tf uses 10 and 2
meow meow
Mrrp :3
Meow
ill try using my flat head to shave down the stab
Try to re-mount the stab
Probably came off the mount
Could you breathe a bit louder next video
This keyboard is detestful
Idc
me neither man
@idle vessel why should i care then
Topre feels very good
keyboards aren’t about da sound
Doesnt matter to me
Ive used fully built custom keyboards
but when u get a new comfy chair ur like Waowww
Yeah they are bad
Not saying that
mx keyboard bad trust me bro…
well
i fixed it the stab just has a bit less lube on it now
atleast it isnt getting stuck
People always say you can never have too much lube
They Don’t Use Topre Doe
Today we found a case where you can have too much
uh no
it was not too much lube
it was the stem brushing against the housing
the housing had a plastic bit sticking out
i just got some sand paper and sanded it down
this would not be an issue if you used topre
@idle vessel i prefer linear switches and romer-g tactiles
its quieter
Im not switching to “topre”
same
have you ever tried topre
how do you know if you don’t like it before you try it
YOURE NOT INVOLVED VAUX
I didnt say “i dont like it”
shut
I said, im not switching
how do you know you prefer linear without trying it
Because i’ve used linears, tactiles, and clicky switches
these are not related to topre at all
Then im not interested
You don’t know until u try ace attorney…
i am trolling by the way
meow
Mrrp :3
@idle vessel the only switches i’d consider going to if i ever build a keyboard is holy panda’s
Holy panda are not related to topre at all
Im aware
good luck sourcing those
True
unless you’re getting the new mold ones
holy pandas aren’t rare wtf
I got to try some at ltx in 2023, and oh my fucking god
Holy pandas have so many fakes
hilarious the amount of people asking if they should upgrade their PC cooling because it's making their room too hot
the ones drop makes are different from the original frakenswitch
Lemme guess, on ztt?
on Reddit usually
i am aware
takes a couple years for the average tech tiktok viewer to have a thermal dynamics lesson
Ngl
If there was a tech youtuber tier list, ztt would have his own tier
No other youtuber comes close to him
Any have experience in optiplexs ?
Because most other youtubers actually know what they’re talking about
wdym by experience
i’ve owned a few
I am in a pickle lol
I’m missing this cord it like $10 for one
As I take it and have read on the Reddit I should be about to use a atx psu I ordered a 8 pin to 24 pin
So I think it offers power for sata he best I can tell
As I take it I can u that regular psu and get rid of that cord I am I wrong ?
just get a actual pc
if it’s an older optiplex you can either use a atx psu natively or with an adapter
the newer ones that use atx 12v only won’t work with a normal psu though
more like OLDER
the new psu would handle the sata power though yes
hey i’m using a optiplex 790 at work rn 
i wish 12VO was standard now
we have a 13700k system but last time we tried swapping the cnc didn’t wanna work properly
so i’m stuck with the 2700k
xd
rn trying to install or at least get windows 11 working on a pc with a 2700
great pc for a basic server or you know office pc
for fuck sakes
we’re still on 21h2 for 10 atm
should work fine tbh i did this
ive god an old ass beta version of zen on my pc and it decided it was going to auto start and nuke every last cookie my browser had
im getting the disk is in mbr error
im just gonna install 11 on the disk on a different pc then slap it in
ive dragged those cookies through so many firefox based browsers
and now to sign back into literally fucking everything
wooo
booo
hate this cause it installs the drivers for both computers
wat
about to buy my first 3d printer, is the bambu labs A1 mini good for beginners?
yup
the A1 mini is the best beginner printer
straight up
Nice and clean :3
Hmmmm say @gilded imp and @tawdry forge, you guys knwo something about the high speed printer scene? I'm asking because somehow I just ended seeing... This.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVF_iwO3d04
In this Video I want to give you a brief overview about my new 3d printer I've created that I call T250. It does Speedboats less than 2 minutes and is capable of doing high quality prints in 1/4th of the time a Bambu would need.
By the time recording T250 is at the 1st rank of the leaderboard of the fastest printers in the world
You want to bu...
Hey jp
@rose stream how are you?
I need Quick help with installation of Cooler for CPU. I can turn om cam
in terms of filament, will PLA withstand being used as a stamp
so use the quick installation guide
stamp? and yes
doubt it will enjoy the hot wax
So the whole thing about Steam selling licenses instead of the actual game: Is there anything stopping you from just taking the game files from your computer and using them without Steam?
Oh, then absolutely
i made a thing thingy and threw it around my floor, and WOW PLA can take some hits
not sure how well it will absorb and deposit ink though
ty, i had a horrible experience using a CREATIV printer last time so im stressed 😅
o yea just a bit older printers are trash
We are so back
no idea what the english word is but basically, you take it, slam it against the ink so you get a coating of ink on the type surface, and then stamp it against paper
Im trying to install a New cooler but the skrev slot came out with the old one
a stamp
Mmmm well, I wouldn't think of daily-ing a world record breaker of course.
What I would be interested in meanwhile is in the possibility of potentially taking some of the practices and tech utilized for them and put them into something within reason or that already exists.
Even if I don't do it in actuality, it is something I'd still be curious of anyway.
Still need to reach 1.4m
yeah but like not the absorption-kind you get in a stamper (?)
Approachable in 30 days imo
not really
We kinda do just in case for those who sent petitions multiple times
so its gonna be a server?
wd black sn7100 or sn770
can you?
from what i'm seing the sn7100 is superior
Yes
sn580
it's the exact price as the other ones where i live
Yeah or maybe a pc for like my Garage I wanna get a 3d printer
I did my part and signed
and it's slower
omg a ssd that came out in 2025 is faster then a 2022 ssd
for some reason Norway cant
I just got my German citizenship so I was able to
My bad for even talking bro
both of those do not make sense
why so
not you
Might use it my garage for my 3d printer I wanna get
i guess go for the one made in 2025
uhm
are you gonna use the case as a shelf
which country
if this is just for gaming it doesn't matter get whatever is cheaper
I am just going to leave it any that case I have work bench in my garage I have space for printer and pc
there is octoprint but not sure how well it works in this case
Idc
What it looks like lol
Butterfly keyboards are hard to get used to
wait what 3D printer
But like at the same time they’re amazing to type on
no
is anyone else noticing higher failure rates on blackwell?
specifically the FE cards
I've got a 5090FE and it's now displaying similar behavior to an RTX Pro 6000 that I have sitting on my desk with an approved RMA that I'm shipping back to PNY today
looking into reddit/forums/etc I'm seeing a fair number of FE cards going back for RMA replacement for TDR failures
https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/1le94vf/5090_fe_keeps_crashing_in_my_new_system_rmaed/
https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/1ln9pau/nvidia_rtx_5090_driver_crash_with_id_153_and_14/

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/game-ready-drivers/13/565785/blackscreen-gpu-fans-to-max-rgb-to-default-rebo/
wondering if the FE cards have some sort of hardware issue that's causing a higher number of RMAs than the AIB cards
you really sure its not just the drivers?
but yeeeaaa tdr tends to mean bad bad bad things
not 100% but I've found a decent sample size where the cards are actually bad and have been RMA'd
I have one on my desk I'm shipping out today
but yea i have seen A LOT of rtx 5000 cards with issues and not really seen a 9000 one
and most of the issues i've seen that aren't driver related are FE not AIB
...because there are certainly a lot of driver issues
Was about to say anything but our blackwell cards are headless
So no. Might keep an eye since im planning to get 5090.
remember most of the people early on that got blackscreen thought it was hardware failure
yeah this isn't just the blackscreen issue though, this is full blown TDR failures with sometimes months of troubleshooting
i've scoured threads on reddit and forums and what i've found is in almost all cases where it was an FE card having a TDR issue, it's a hardware failure
woof
perfect picture to replace the geen colour
did i get a good deal if i spent 1100 euros on this
its 1292.15 USD
very nice single core preformance
who is gonna tell him that its meaningless
TC1 is your domain gl
yea
@tidal geyser@grizzled frost ty all, excited for it to show up. i was gonna get the nozzle set as well but it was out of stock, some other time maybe!
planning to do a raid5
with 4x8TB drives
what's tdr
gpu issue
very specific
Would give me double the storage that I currently have, as well as some data protection finally
This guy is unhinged 🤣
why do i see this error
what error?
it cant opem
when i open cinebench in task manager i see it open
then get suspended and closes
why would you need it open
well it cant open
tried restarting?
TDR, or Timeout Detection and Recovery, is a Windows feature designed to prevent graphics card driver issues from causing system crashes. It detects when a graphics card isn't responding and attempts to reset the driver, allowing the system to recover and return to a functional state. If you see a "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" message, it means TDR has successfully intervened.
it's basically windows saying that the GPU has taken a shit and needs to be smacked in the face, sometimes its hardware, sometimes it's the driver, but always it's bad and frustrating
Why tf does my truenas scale be saying “bad shim signature” every time I try to boot from usb
do not usb as a boot drive
it litteraly says it in the installer
nice one. gl with the raid array
I mean like as a download thing
TrueNas makes it easy, not too worried. Thanks though
To download truenas scale like the image is on the usb
what things have you turned off
oh so they removed it when i joined great
like to you know troubleshoot
alright cool. would resetting the graphics driver fix this
yeah ik, np
since when i have issues the most basic stuff of just turning off secure boot and such
I turned off secure boot etc
It is also saying like “load the kernel first”
no, that's the point - there is something funky going on with FE form factor cards - I have a 5090FE that's started doing this last night, and an RTX Pro 6000 Workstation Edition that's so broken I've already gotten the RMA approved
Instead of Balena?
why not use rufus
again broke for me
also balena sends telemetry data for some reason
Yeah it works
o nice go enjoy truenas, god i love it
I mean like I am in truenas the download menu
guys
Just when I click download it really wants to just die
computer stuff is working or its not
i got my WPM to 60
so is it working or not
good use of silicon, gold, sand, and copper ngl
with a phone?
No
I do 50 wpm on a phone
keyboard
and like 70-80 on a keyboard
have you tried doing what i suggested
I need to load the kernel first for some reason
my condolences
could you post a picture of the error messages here
Raspberry pi imager is almost done
uw:3
i have seen it before
Pretty much
have you tried a different usb stick
Yup
idk how that'd fix it
Raspberry pi has like 3percent left
dang
you got it from here right? https://www.truenas.com/download-truenas-community-edition/
monkeytype is weird
pretty sure this is truenas scale
because they arent actual sentences so what im typing is what i usually put first
go use typeracer, monkeytype is overrated and it doesn't accurately benchmark you
and your kb
it's just some random words you gotta type
yeah
@fluid matrix
hey guys i need help i have 2 m.2 slots both are full and i need to install my new drive how do i clone my 512gb m.2 boot drive to my new 1tb m.2?
usually if im typing "from" im usually putting you to or over after it not because
Yup
do you have a spare pcie slot
where else would he get it from?
no
this shit aint a normal sentence bruh
really?
idfk
you mean like x16 slot or my m.2 slot?
What is the minimal usb stick requirements for truenas? Like what size
mini itx?
yes
i dono probs 4GB
sad
i know
Then the usb sticks are fine
but if possible just move stuff over to the big drive then put stuff back on the bigger ssd
Nowp
i have 2 full 512gb drives
and i am going to a 512 and a 1tb
why not just 2TB
price
its like what 80$ now for 2TB
160 ish
no??
for name brand
Oh the file partitioning on this usb is cooked
what does name have to do with anything
also no 95$ for "name brand" https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Gs7G3C/team-mp33-pro-2-tb-m2-2280-nvme-solid-state-drive-tm8fpd002t0c101
lexar is fine
name brand drives cost more like a 2tb Samsung vs that
teamgroup is name brand??????
also i have the thing on my desk now so it doesn't mater it is a 1tb kingston
o well
yea but i just like it better
wat
no dram but teamgroup is 100% reputable
yea i know but i just went kingston
anyways just delete some games then move stuff to the c drive then put in new
it’s the bare minimum i expect from an ssd personally
but i also don’t have low end models anymore
my wifi sux tho that is what i am trying to avoid
Found it on a 80's laptop
so use a cable for a bit ooor just get better wifi anyways
i get 32mb through wire 😦
so it would take like 3 days of killing the internet
where do you live to even have a 32Mb plan
it is a 100mb plan with real speed of 32mb also in the middle of nowhere
I have a question for the americans in this server
sad
yes?
Do you guys actually wear your shoes in the house?

I love diskpart!!!!
Ive never seen any normal canadian go inside without taking their shoes off (unless they’re moving out/moving in)
i would but i am not eu
what i said
im kinda in the EU well EØS
is there a way to remove the non boot drive than clone to the new then swap??
y not?
you know the kids game where you say a word and it goes in a circle
ahh even tho it is just one pass?
well the data on it now is already been on there for a while
and then again when moving it does not make it better
let me see what i can do i might have to unstall my 300gb of racing games
what about drivers?
i am
so what driver
just realised that the drivers are on the hardware not the ssd
idk why i got included, but thanks ig
i know but i was talking about the drivers for my other hardware
like bye bye gpu if it is on the wrong drive

its just swap out game drive put in new drive then disk genius to clone boot drive onto the new drive then replace the old boot drive with the game drive and be happy
Are there any web archive or software archive sites other than the obvious ones like Archive.org or Software Heritage?
There's some piece of software I'm looking for that's not on either of them but I feel like someone must've archived it.
Oh hey it's you again
You're in all the servers aren't you lol
Ok will it mess with my windows tho?
i just said how it can cause issues
but no probs fine
@peak knot hear me out: overclocked microwave
provolone
Xd
comptia is horrible
I'm listening
I know but it works for dumb highering managers
i should get some certificates
Prob it helps
even if most are not great
Yea
Rumors of people botting it or spoofing signatures, which is a huge no-go
I love my charger
can it do 125w
This is 125w
and it just came with the phone
and yes just a pd 3.0 well +25w for the phones pd stuff
Is there any way I can push my phones CPU to the limit? ( Assuming battery power isn't a problem)
Using rufus I get “welcome to grub! Error unknown filesystem”
wat
what did you get with imager
prob not
Freedos

Hello everyone
Nuh uh
Yuh huh
I wish there was something also like 3D Mark but for my phone maybe they can make a APK for it
ffs
you mean 3D mark wildlife?
Shit it exists I didn't think it did
you make me sad
That’s cool
this?
with the thing i suggested
I noticed the thing that struggles on the most is definitely physics calculations
oh yeah Iam trying rufus rn
wat
Does it make sense to build a PC that I could upgrade easily or should I cut corners to save money
wat
idk how to word it
I will send the RPI imager later when this one is done
ok
Ok I need to find the expected hash too
wat
Like I use power shell but I need to give it the expected hash value right so it can check it
use your Eyes

or just use vt and look at the hash and do ctrl + f and paste it in
Oh oh I use the windows r 
for example should I get a higher rated PSU for a possible future GPU and/or CPU upgrade, and a motherboard with 4 RAM slots instead of a cheaper one with 2 slots
Yeah?
If ur not on a proprietary platform
i thought it might be too general of a question
Like this?
yes
ddr5 4 sticks no good
and pleas just ask in build a pc for someone to build a list for your budget and PLEAS use the guidelines
you're saying DDR5 is better on 2 slots than 4?
Just installed now I am bios what do I do
what happens when you boot
For speed, yes
Straight to bios
technically yes
but with 2 slots its either SUPER cheap or SUPER spensive
I haven't moved data yet all I have done is swap it 4 the game drive
turn on legacy boot
put the usb drive in a usb 2.0 port
It’s on the Microsoft store right I just want to make sure it’s the right powershell
powershell is CMD but modern
Where is that
Unix
and both of those are required to be on windows or else everything would die
😌
Its just like not even recognising it now
in the bios
Straight to gnu grub or something
Bro really 😑
pic
Wdym?


Ok so I pulled up power shell, typed in get-filehash. The files are in a usb stick so would I type in the name of the usb stick and then it’ll find it?
dang what caps
Apparently this is the top charts Honor GT Pro 5G - Full phone specifications https://share.google/41z1PWHX8zMVp7r3F
I've seen some videos on it but I don't have the urge to try my hand at building a printer just for speed benchys
Besides my main, I also have kinda old pc with athlon 3000g (16gb ddr4)
I want to put some gpu into this ewaste box (just for fun)
Is GT 1030 okay to be paired with 3000g?
NO
Why
Death
hope i was helpful man
XD
Why my Windows key always turning off by itself

Hi, i have a question regarding new pcs. I set up the mobo with everything it needs and booted it up before putting it in the case. The LEDs gave me an all clear for the ram, GPU and CPU. however, i don't have my monitor yet and i am currently unable to check the BIOS. Can i already start putting all the parts in the case or should i really wait for my monitor to arrive ?
what do you thinks gonna happen between you putting the parts in and the monitor arriving that would cause issue
Anyone know why distant horizons keep fully freezing and crashing my PC?
I don't have access to bios rn meaning that though the motherboard is saying all parts are functioning, I currently don't have any stats
too much render distance
how do the stats affect your monitor
@unkempt geyser
I’d wait to be safe
I mean that i can't check bios to see if there's any temp problems or anything like that
waves hihi hi hi hi chat

not a wave gif but i love it
anyway... october is in 3 months, and i need to figure out my pc NOOOOWWW
quick question, I undervolted my 9800X3D to -30 PBO. Cinebench ran great, core cycler found no errors after 32 hrs, and all games run fine.
But distant horizons keeps crashing and freezing my entire PC, idk if it’s a CPU issue
still between laptop and used pc parts because im awesome like that
no
the only reason im hesitant to go used on pc parts is because i live in a pretty dangerous city
lots can change in 3 months
.
Chat any idea how to fix this?
like way earlier...
plan 5 years ahead like nintendo with their hardware
just as a comparison, im already planning my house even though im a year away from completing high school
i am a BIG early planner
you get me fr 🔥 🔥 🔥
yeah so wasting time is what you're doing 
yes!
let me plan in peace... you're the second person to complain about being early...
Bro does NOT understand
3 months
absolutely not
i dont care that youre an early planner, used or not the market is way too volatile to figure out anymore than rough specs
we literally CANNOT help you build a list for 3 months in advance because who knows if the prices are going to change or if the sale is going to go away or if its a scam or something
its not a matter of we just dont like that you plan early its that there is legitimately no point to because thats not how it works
you will get entirely different computers 3 months apart at the same price point
in 3 months I'm getting the FLP02 c:
Q3 2025 is their goal, but latest Q4
ah
guys is this cooked ?
if it's laptop, probably not
looks pretty bad but is it a laptop
its not 💀
its not
okay then yeah do something about it
if it's intel, probably not
its amd 😭
its at 3.6ghz its a problem no matter the platform
also both brands boost to 95 whats with the random hatred 😭
xpg core reactor got out of stock for a while now, is corsair rm750e good?
yep
do i buy a new cooler or do i d osomething else?
thank you
what cooler what chip and how many watts are you at 96c
this is my processor and i just have the stock amd cooler
ps120se 🔥
im not even going to ask you your budget because if you cant afford this im not helpiung anymore
(mostly a joke)
based if you buy a kotetsu mk3

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/43qrxr/thermalright-burst-assassin-120-se-6617-cfm-cpu-cooler-ba120-se
i even gave you two price points
buy the PA120SE if you can afford the $30, it'll last you basically any CPU its compatible with mounting wise
if you cant, the cheaper one will do just fine but probably wont if you have a mega gamer computer in the future
i was thinking about just building a whole new pc cause my current one is still on am4, do you think thats stupid
yes
regardless youd still need a new cooler
id see if you can holdout on am4 until the next socket rolls around. looking like 1 more arch on am5 before going to another socket
if not the 9600X is actually a very good value right now
Then two pumps with an extra for redundancy to make sure all is flowing correctly
that + a used b650 board cause im cheap and you end up with a decent combod for cheap
Mixed opinions on B650s
why
theres literally no reason to buy anything higher end unless you use a clinical amount of USB or for some reason actually use more than 1 pcie (like the actual slot) device
Sometimes I hear they're good as entry level and sometimes I see people wearing "THE END IS B650" banners and saying that the VRMs murder anything that isn't an a 7400F-9600X
lol what could there possibly be mixed opinions about
B650 is a chipset, the VRM's are a completely different component
of course there's bad mobos
im going to say anybody talking about VRM design seriously mattering for an average user is an idiot
and end it there
Laptop 5050 or laptop 4060
I understand that, but it's either:
-Good entry level option
-YOUR COMPUTER IS GOING TO BLOW UP
Idk im kinda dumb, how do i put new games on my modded wii, i got the usb ready with all my wii files on it. (already got modded games on it)
because you could get away with like fucking 200amps on a 4 phase vrm
Fair enough
look at the VRM on this board for 2x400W epyc processors
Well then, my only - unreasonable - gripe is the lack of PCIe 5.0 on most models, but that's a me problem
do you think theyre somehow fitting in a juicier vrm than its on the average mid range board in a smaller area
no its literally a worse vrm than on most mid or high end consumer boards
somewhere in this list of B650/B850 is a board for nearly everyone https://pcpartpicker.com/products/motherboard/#s=41&c=160,161,169&sort=price&page=1
Choose A Motherboard
VRM is the most over designed thing on the consumer end by a longshot
The real VRM is hidden inside the PCB
They're hiding the good VRM inside the PCB
THEY'RE IN THE WALLS
(/s)
💀
you're so funny
man its like bottlenecks. the boogeyman
but yeah no each of those phases can do like a solid 80amps or something ridiculous...80a is a lot btw
0 compatible results
Sorry :(
Likely by finding a discord that specializes in such things
whats a good sounding switch? white? black?
check r/sounding
DONTB UY KYEYBAORD FOR SOUND
Honestly I thought they were a huge problem when I first heard of them, now I would pare a 14900K to a 1050 Ti and not look twice
why not
Ya'll are mr einsteins at everything, ofc i ask here first.
thats a decent one
quiet keyboards >
its not good to buy from
actually i cant even say ts considering i dont have one
You're encroaching on a legal gray area. Unlikely to get much help here.
use of high end mosfets significantly reduces heat output of vrm's
its not good to buy based off one of the constant qualities applying to your computer?
keyborb can sound differnet based on many factors and it doesnt really matter what it sounds like 90% of time
Lets just bask in the absurdity
probably google it
googleai is telling nonsense
yes, but are the 20+ phases often on high end motherboards required??? LOL
at least theres not a 7800x3d in it
Google, not AI
go to a modded wii forum
Idk just joined a "wiihack" discord, they might help me somehow
you can get away with 8 good vcore phases to likely any am5 chip in any configuration but xoc
yes it will be hot but will it throttle (as long as it has a heatsink, probably not)
yeah go to their help channel they probably have one
Yeah, no one would ever do such a thing. Never... no way.. definitely not
shut up @azure topaz
I wanna talk about potential builds but I've been lied to abt income for like half a year straight so not worth it </3
its not but it sounds nice on marketing
you can be resonable with number of phases and use high end mosfets or get dirt cheap ones and have absurd amount of them
we dont use dirt cheap ones is my entire point 😭
Only thing I can say is that it's gonna be ROUGH
Its definitely fine to buy a keyboard while considering sound as a factor, feel is a lot but sound is the second half of that
you shouldnt buy any product based off 1 factor alone
i think thats what people look mostly for
😭 bro if i buy a keyboard and it sounds like shit im returning it
yeah man and its stupid
why
I finaly got truenas up and running
the most annoying part of my computer is in fact a factor people consider?!?!
cause when you actually use it it doesnt matter
do you not understand that people like to have nice things
also most mx keyborb sounds get sooo annoying during typing
ok but i can still hear the keyboard when im not hearing any audio
😭 yeah use a membrane keyboard as long as it has N keyrollover the keyboard doesnt matter
i HATE IT when people say stufflike this
thats the same logic bro
like in ever said anything that even means that
the only reason i want a quiet keyboard is because mine is too loud to use at night in a small house lmao
U should buy a hhkb pro 2 type-s
dont blow his mind now

you told me not to buy a keyboard based on sound
although only the upstroke is silenced
like im not trying to be an rgb nerd but do u know an aio cooler thats good but also looks good?
i said dont buy a keyboard based on sound to Someone else because they were only considering sound
also type-s changes feel in my opinion
im getting a keychron k2 he
sure
is the best way to update bios just flashing it without ever posting it?
thermalright aios
like before even putting your cpu in?

black one doesnt show on pcpp for some reason
pcpp: Hi
Bye
u just need to change the color on the product page
those who manually set price
brochacho what are u talking about
Manually set the price when uadd the part
thats not the point bro they want the amazon link
the point is that they cant fucking buy it off pcpp bro
Chat which of these is best for my rig?
https://eu.crucial.com/compatible-upgrade-for/hp-compaq/pavilion-gaming-15-dk0047tx#tabs-SSD-tab
Rig: HP Pavilion Gaming 15-dk0047tx
it doesnt show up because theres no link 😭
or newegg or whatever
yeah man but you said Not on pcpp
@azure topaz guess how much i paid for a fucking working ps4
you can stil l add it to hte list
50$
$15
im not saying HEY MAN IT HAS VENDORS
Sorry Im not a part of that conversation
$9 cad (before tax)
so youre nitpicking for no reason?
(
)
??? what is nitpicky about that 😭
where the fuck are u finding these deals bro
i am jsut saying it is in fact on pcpp
i didnt say there be no vendors
U can add it to ur list
warshipped
youve gotta be dense
what is this
i know u dont get a vendor link man
F tier ragebait
we have established this fact
you can add to the list doe... it is On pcpp just without vendors...
if you knew what i meant and what i was talking about what is the purpose
I bropight it uip cause u were like Its not on pcpp and it Is on pcpp
not even sure im ignoring him 💀
Floppa doesn't lie
okay this is the last response but are you too dense to realise i meant the actual ignore feature
Floppa: Hi i am lying
what does turning off launch csm do?
does it increase performance or anything
no but it stops your system from using old boot standards
when you say "Its not on pcpp" i assumed u meant the part is not on pcpp
is that so insane and tyrannic to assume you meant lol
which will help in the future with windows 11 compatibility
it's good to block users you don't like
Compatability Support Module. This should only be on if you're using an ancient MBR disk with Windows 10. If you're using a modern GPT formatted disk with Windows 11, CSM should be off. No, its not performance related.
if youre already on windows 11 then keep it on some boards are weird about what "CSM" means
I hate it when someone is right and i am wrong im blockign this guy
smh im using the ignore feature
why did they add the ignore feature
its basically blocking except i clicked a different button to do it
and then make the messages show like the same as when u block someone
literally pointless 😭
