[solar moat]

very bad advice

[sinful cobalt]

unless ur on an assrock board and X3D

[dawn flame]

playing cyberpunk a little too long

[azure dirge]

Anyone got any Newegg promo codes like from a content creator or anything just wondering

[solar moat]

just about all board just set max PPT/EDC/TDC

[slender sentinel]

anyone got any idea why my 1080p footage I recorded on obs looks so grainy when I open it up on VLC or even upload it on youtube

[solar moat]

and i seen many set higher scailer if not set aka speed degrading

[azure dirge]

Also has anyone here actually ever fully built a PC with no problems at all

[solar moat]

once in bule moon

[azure dirge]

Have you ever?

[solar moat]

hell no

[azure dirge]

How many PC’s have you built

Roughly

[solar moat]

6

[azure dirge]

Dang that’s crazy

So stick to prebuilts is what you’re saying

[slender sentinel]

me

no problems whatsoever

[solar moat]

no i very jank in my building but all of the prebuilds i got where worse

[azure dirge]

How many times

[slender sentinel]

2 pcs

[azure dirge]

What brands have you got prebuilts from

[solar moat]

i mosty make system for sub $50 i offen have DIY modifed cooler mounts to make them work with drills

[azure dirge]

How many total did you build

[slender sentinel]

I’ve built 2 PCs in total

[azure dirge]

And you never had any problems on either of them

[azure dirge]

Oh alr

[solar moat]

HP dell lenvo are ones i used all ran into problems

[azure dirge]

NZXT ever?

[solar moat]

where my current pc dispte being 12 years olds apart for odd part fail after like 5 years its been fine

[solar moat]

nope i broke cheapscate

[azure dirge]

What’s that

[random gyro]

i set it to disabled

[slender sentinel]

nope

[solar moat]

JOIN ME IN #overclocking

and MAYBE READ THE GUIDE

[azure dirge]

So either you’re lying or learned for months about PC’s so you wouldn’t make a mistake

[random gyro]

i don't see a guide

[solar moat]

i just watch a few youtube got like 5 dead pc made them into janky af gaming pc

[azure dirge]

I mean I get the basic concepts of how to build a PC but don’t some stuff get a little complicated like stuff with the power supply

[solar moat]

psu makes voltge and parts draw currnet

what makes a good one is how well it can keep the voltage in spec/will it last a good amount of time

[sinful cobalt]

its a mix and match with some common sense and google searching

[slender sentinel]

I’ve lwky learned for months

like 6 or 7 months as I was trying to convince my parents to let me build one

[young crest]

Put the free in FreeD Printer

[formal sonnet]

Yup. Multiple PCs, in fact.

[gentle kestrel]

yeah to multiple as well

[spring latch]

apparently my crt/radio/thermometer/compass/emergency light combo is quite rare

[river harbor]

how do I get it out 😭😭

[spring latch]

somebody forgot to change their thermal paste after forever lol

[river harbor]

I just bought it

[spring latch]

oh wow

[river harbor]

I pried it with a knife 😭😭

[spring latch]

what thermal paste did u use

it looks like you used thermal glue

[river harbor]

idk i just bought the pc

look at this poor nh d15

[spring latch]

oh so u didnt build it

[river harbor]

how do you bend a heatsink this much

[azure dirge]

How many out of total built though or how many fails

[azure dirge]

No like I mean physical wiring the PSU to the parts

[topaz wren]

is this a good build https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/sLCTTM

[river harbor]

maybe get a 7600x and a 9070xt

[formal sonnet]

I think I've had 2 out of 15+ computers have issues, and even then, they were minor issues involving storage drives that were Dead on Arrival. Otherwise, everything else has worked flawlessly.

[solar moat]

there 24 pin 4 or 8 pin EPS and then 6 or 8 or 12 Pin PCIE
and sata power

you just check dose psu have ones that io need for parts

[azure dirge]

Also if I need to upgrade from 16GB ram to 32GB ram should I just get 2 more of the same 8GB sticks or entirely replace the sticks with two new faster 16GB sticks

[topaz wren]

people keep telling me get a cheaper cpu i don’t see why

i’ll probably get a couple hundred less FPS

[solar moat]

i dont recomend mixing ram

[river harbor]

if you goal is to get 400 fps in fortnite at 144p sure

[azure dirge]

No like the same model with same frequencies and timings and stuff

[topaz wren]

600

[river harbor]

get the 9800x3d

[solar moat]

and yes that mixing

[topaz wren]

at 1080p

[river harbor]

if your goal is to do literally anything else, get a more powerful gpu

[azure dirge]

How is that mixing if it’s 4 of the same sticks

[topaz wren]

most modern fps games are cpu based

[solar moat]

mixing is where it not form same kit

[river harbor]

if youre doing fps might aswell get the 8gb tbh

[azure dirge]

Oh like that

[river harbor]

but 16gb good for flexibility

[solar moat]

most ram brands dont make the ram they buy what ever is cheapest on the week for that bin meaing very difrent ram each time you buy

[topaz wren]

not really i run a triple monitor setup so

[azure dirge]

So if I get 2 new 16GB sticks to replace my 2 8GB sticks what am I gonna do with the 8GB ones would I just have to throw them out or anywhere I can give them away or sell them?

[solar moat]

since corsair/g.skill/most of them just package form hynix/samsung/micon for ddr5 there more on ddr4

[azure dirge]

What I’m confused the brands don’t make their own RAM?

[solar moat]

i advise having at least 1 kit spare for each ram gen for testing latter down the line since at best you can sell for like $25

[fringe prairie]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/vp8pYd

[solar moat]

corsair dose not make ram they package it

[river harbor]

is this a hazard

[azure dirge]

Oh alr so I’ll just keep them

[solar moat]

same for most brands

[azure dirge]

Bruh what

Who makes the RAM then

[solar moat]

like ddr5 its ony samsung/micron/sk hynix that make it all other just package it form them

[river harbor]

hes righr

only like 3 brands make ram

[solar moat]

ddr4 there more company who make it like nanya

[river harbor]

same for gpus

and nand too

[solar moat]

ddr3 was fun since there some like g.skill who tryed to make the best ram for overclocking so crazy ddr3 3200 kits with very tight timigns

but sadly not a thing on ddr4/5

[azure dirge]

I mean what would go wrong realistically if I bought the same RAM I have right now even though it’s from a different kit

[solar moat]

dont expect more then jedec

[azure dirge]

Like 2333MHz you mean

[solar moat]

so for most of time that like ddr4 2133

[azure dirge]

Or MT/s

[solar moat]

1067mhz

so slower then my ddr3

[azure dirge]

Isn’t 2333MHz jedec or like the default?

[solar moat]

you cn get jedec upto ddr4 3200

but most ram with xmp offen only comes with like 2133 or maybe 2400 since hay some good ram like samsuing 8gbit b-die cant do 3200 at 1.2V but it can do 4400 with very good timings at 1.45V

[azure dirge]

Yeah so if I buy 2 more 8GB’s I could still run them at 3200 because that’s what the rated speed for them is anyways

[solar moat]

i said dont expect more then jedec

offen thats going to be 2133

[azure dirge]

Oh

[solar moat]

since idk what you got

apart for ddr4

[azure dirge]

Alr

Are you asking me for what RAM I have or just saying you don’t know what I have

[solar moat]

mixing ram is not end of world just for most ussr 100% dont recomend it
like i mixing 2 very not the same kits it runs at ddr3 1333 one kit rated at 1600 xmp and other 2133 xmp ir unning at ddr3 2400 but it was pain spending 2 weeks getting it stable where with just 1 of the kits it was not hard to get 2667 stable

[azure dirge]

I didn’t really understand any of this but I won’t mix my RAM

Oh I get it

Also when you install the new RAM is your PC gonna have any problems adjusting to the RAM or anything?

[solar moat]

its more like dont expect xmp to work when mxiing ram

[river harbor]

is this screw special or am I special? I cant get it out

[solar moat]

dose it spin?

[river harbor]

yeah

its loose

but it wont come out

[winter lantern]

installing a 5lb gpu by yourself is so ass

[river harbor]

what am I missing

[latent pasture]

does the standoff also spin
maybe its just broken

[frigid topaz]

Man I thought wearing iems would be comfortable but after like 2 hours of them in your ear it hurts allot

[river harbor]

so what do

[azure dirge]

What if you buy 4 sticks of RAM in the same kit?

[latent pasture]

the same kit? so they are sold as 4 together?
cuz if u just mean same brand/name that doesnt work

[solar moat]

if its sold a 4*X kit its fine but if your buying 2x of the same kit no

and some cpu/mobo realy hate 2dpc

[river harbor]

nope

[solar moat]

so unless your have a t-top board dont

[river harbor]

stand off doesnt spin

[latent pasture]

ur removing the mobo right? does it come off after all other screws are removed

[solar moat]

1dpc(dimm per channel) is offen just better idea

[river harbor]

nope this is the last screw

mobo wont come out

[latent pasture]

huh try to remove the standoff itself then

[river harbor]

it also wont tighten

[river harbor]

how? from the back?

[latent pasture]

do u have really thin pliers or anything to spin that standoff under the mobo

since iirc it just screws down into cases, theres no nut/bolt etc on the other side

[river harbor]

this is whats on the back 😭😭

okay yeah thats not tje screw it doesnt soin

spin

[azure dirge]

Yeah I mean like if it’s sold as 4 together in 1 box

[azure dirge]

How though if you literally buy two of the same kit at the same time

[solar moat]

just dont mix kits of ram

[worldly mason]

Man wna get these soo bad but my brain sayin brother the price self control wait till Christmas because of the bonus

[river harbor]

you supossed to remove cpu brscket to remove mobo?

yeah right?

[azure dirge]

Ok

[topaz wren]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/sLCTTM is the gpu cheaping out?

[solar moat]

no dont get 9800x3d with that low end of gpu

[topaz wren]

hmm

[winter lantern]

cpu that costs more than the gpu is crazy

[swift moss]

@peak knot do we buy this 😭

ui straight outta 2012

[topaz wren]

i play cpu based games so

[swift moss]

its honestly kinda cool having an easy to control 24 inch oscilloscope display in front of you (doesnt look as cool on the bench tho D:)

[topaz wren]

it’s still a huge update from i5-12400f and a 3060

[limber nacelle]

shit like that does not go on sale

[peak knot]

price?

cause i say avoid those when possible

[swift moss]

100usd lol

[peak knot]

no

[swift moss]

yeha

[buoyant bridge]

this is awesome!!! https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1384109190116802560/1391287522058965042/PXL_20250706_051831743.TS.mp4?ex=686b58fa&is=686a077a&hm=a12f7d2bad853b638530977c43c296c142e06c7632456cb87da449de6d5df208&

[peak knot]

look for a FNIRSI 1013D

can get em for about $100 used

[swift moss]

hmm what about those like

https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/DSOX3054A-500MHz-4Ch-Oscilloscope-With-N2890A_1600410159733.html?spm=a2700.galleryofferlist.p_offer.d_title.1d3d13a06gerpU&s=p

[peak knot]

this is a scam

[swift moss]

is it?

shall i shout them an inquiry?

[peak knot]

thats an 18K USD scope

[swift moss]

really 😭

[swift moss]

lemme ask them, its got the "alibaba guarantee"

[swift moss]

keysight is upsold so hard - they probably cost like 10usd to manufacture

[peak knot]

if you get one its gonna be broken lol

[swift moss]

https://tenor.com/view/dead-gif-24973773

🤷

[peak knot]

lol no, keysight is one that actually backs their product

[topaz wren]

idk how to build a good pc

[swift moss]

they are amazing scopes but i feel like its just upselling for good qc and r&d

theres a big NRE with oscilloscopes

[topaz wren]

idk what specs bruh this the best i can make https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/sLCTTM

[peak knot]

like yeah they have professional tax added but your also getting support along with it

[swift moss]

true.

but yeah that for 100usd would be a dream

"warranty"

100% sus af

[peak knot]

if you got it for $100 USD id buy it from you for $200 so you could get another one lol

[swift moss]

+5000usd shipping lmfao

idk i dont really have 100 usd to burn rn

im busy making a reciever, and also - if its too good to be true it probably is ngl

actually wait 111usd is the sample price to draw consumers in

[peak knot]

like i said get the FNIRSI

[swift moss]

for sure, its on all of their products

[peak knot]

i use mine when im not home and love it

can handle 120V inputs fine with 10x probes

[swift moss]

looks useful

[river harbor]

IT car

[swift moss]

only thing im worried about is ease of control and zooming

[peak knot]

has 100mhz bandwidth also compared to the 25mhz of the one you asked about

[cosmic idol]

Cute car

[peak knot]

its touchscreen

[swift moss]

oh so like a phone zooming

doesnt sound too accurate 😭 compared to encoder

[peak knot]

yeah or if its voltages and such it has menu buttons

[peak knot]

it uses relays internally

[swift moss]

i see

[peak knot]

can hear them clicking when using it

[empty quartz]

🥶

[peak knot]

@swift moss

[empty quartz]

@rigid fjord

Pinged on the wrong server, mb

[swift moss]

cool

[peak knot]

like i said if you need cheap and usable get the 1013D

it also allows you to save pictures and transfer them to your PC

[swift moss]

cop or drop @peak knot

[peak knot]

i could almost afford the oscilloscope i want with the price of the first one

at max cost

[swift moss]

damn lmfao

maybe buy me a 3 phase transformer for my speaker instead lol

[solar moat]

🤦

[solar moat]

not joking i will over load that its not hard

[grizzled nova]

C and g are actually kinda close

[swift moss]

110kV you will overload? do you run tsmc or something

[solar moat]

welp i read number wrong the 400KW is not going to overlaod it

[rigid fjord]

looks to be decent still

[quaint jacinth]

Is the CP1500PFCLCD from cyberpower? Like is there any issues?

[solid crown]

I have that one and its pretty good, no issues

sometimes it has a weird electrical hum thats quite loud

its loud like in the lower hz frequencies

[grizzled nova]

Is that a psu?

Idk about cyber power psus

[grizzled nova]

I had that too

In my psu that died 26 days after I bought it

[solid crown]

its a UPS

[grizzled nova]

Ohh that makes more sense

[solid crown]

mine is still running though

[grizzled nova]

I’m guessing it’s 1500w max

[solid crown]

1000w max

[grizzled nova]

I might get one how expensive are they

[solid crown]

uhhh they are pretty pricey I guess but pretty useful

mine was over $200 I believe

[grizzled nova]

That’s not bad

[humble nebula]

what are you even running tho

[grizzled nova]

I was thinking like 500$

[humble nebula]

the montech century II has a 1050W, A tier, for 90 bucks

[solid crown]

used to run a 4090 13900K pc with my monitor connected so yeah 1000w was def useful

[humble nebula]

or 100

[solid crown]

thats a psu not a ups

[humble nebula]

oh

ohhhhh sorry i got confused

[grizzled nova]

I got that too

[solid crown]

lol

gottem

[grizzled nova]

Dows it have a function that can shut off a pc if power loss is detected

[solid crown]

nope

[grizzled nova]

Damn

[solid crown]

you kinda want the pc to stay on until you tell it to turn off

[grizzled nova]

I was gonna use it on my server

[solid crown]

if youre updating bios dont want it turning off lol

[grizzled nova]

The one I’m not nearby

[solid crown]

oh so you mean like the UPS giving a signal to cleanly shutdown

[timber briar]

if it could gracefully turn off before battery runs out

[grizzled nova]

Yea

Or if I could just get my silly issue fixed

[timber briar]

how many times has someone actually had a power outage when updating bios

[solid crown]

wait I think it does have that functionality

[grizzled nova]

I did

But my board has flash with no cpu

[timber briar]

2 very unlikely things in a row

[solid crown]

my power sucks and goes out a lot

[grizzled nova]

So I wa fine

[solid crown]

I still dont want my pc shutting off randomlly though

[grizzled nova]

I bought an expensive board

[timber briar]

i update my bios every like 3 years and i have a power outage like every 3 years

for that to be synced would be crazy

[grizzled nova]

I update my bios a lot

“A lot”

[timber briar]

why

[solid crown]

this might do it

[grizzled nova]

Like once per 2 month

[grizzled nova]

No clue tbh

[grizzled nova]

Is that web ui

[timber briar]

read the changelogs and dont do it unless you actually have a reason

[solid crown]

nah its an app unfortunately

tracks the power though which is useful

[timber briar]

sometimes its just very specific changes that wont affect you

[grizzled nova]

Yea
I always wait until reviews come out too

[solid crown]

to see how much energy you wasted lmao

[timber briar]

ppl review bios versions??

[grizzled nova]

Tragic

[grizzled nova]

Like on forums for the rev
On whether it kills their system or not
Yea

[quaint jacinth]

Im trying to buy a UPS and seems like almost every brand got a fire issue lol

[solid crown]

what about mine

[timber briar]

its a big battery

[grizzled nova]

Why even use a ups tbh
A car battery would have the same effect

[solid crown]

then you need to adapt it to work as a ups which will probably just cost more than buying a ups

[timber briar]

yeah guys lemme remove my car battery and directly connect it to the outlet and to my pc without any smart technology deciding charging so if i turn my pc off it will fucking explode

[solid crown]

lets not forget its 12v

[grizzled nova]

Yea they get it

[quaint jacinth]

There was like a glue in revision 1 and revision 2 that might cause fire

[solid crown]

just forgo the psu just connect 12v battery to your mobo

[timber briar]

yes

[quaint jacinth]

The CP1500PFCLCD one btw

[timber briar]

you could do it if you bought a bunch of shit and put it together

[quaint jacinth]

is on yt

[timber briar]

but i wouldnt trust myself

[grizzled nova]

I need to sleep it’s 3 am and I got work in the morning

[solid crown]

dont think so

[grizzled nova]

Shit

Oh yowza

Must’ve been somewhere else then

[quaint jacinth]

man im nervous af to buy a UPS

[solid crown]

mine is rev 3 so im chilling

[sinful cobalt]

afaik the aero has a 11% PL increase while the aorus master has 25% ffs

if i trade aorus to aero not only do I get a smaller cooler, my PL is also nerfed

[lapis talon]

Heard the nitro+ doesn't have any load balancing for the 12-2x6?

[lapis talon]

9070xt

[sinful cobalt]

300w card, as long as its plugged properly its fine

[lapis talon]

Should I keep checking whether it's seated properly or not every day?

[sinful cobalt]

no

if you’re certain its in, it is in

[lapis talon]

Yes I've pushed it in all the way

But the metal backplate doesn't close properly

Because the cable is too stubborn

But as it is magnetic, I can kind of just push it on

[river harbor]

yay I reassembled a pc and it wont post anymore

I love pc gaming

!!!

$180 mobo ruined 😔

[lapis talon]

Yay I repasted my cpu and it can now thermal throttle without any issues1!!1!1

[river harbor]

I repasted my cpu and now it wont post and the mobo led is spitting funny numbers 😋😋

😔

[river harbor]

nope

its a fancy one it has an led with the codes

but it doesnt matter cause its a fucking brick now

[lapis talon]

I will gladly take it for free

[river harbor]

I made a last attempt

I drowned the socket in lysol

ill leave it overnight

it will work

trust

[empty quartz]

Im aware

[sinful cobalt]

those numbers mean what is wrong btw

[river harbor]

I know

its stuck on ram initialization

I tried 6 sticks and reseating the cpu like thrice

[sinful cobalt]

might be a faulty ram slot afaik

[river harbor]

tried all 4 slots and it posted before I reassembled it

[rigid fjord]

my longest one has 45k hours on it

[zenith haven]

elllloooo

[fathom flax]

i just swapped my 7900x3d for a 9800x3d but i’m not getting any display output. peripherals are lighting up however. any idea how I can diagnose it fromchere

[dapper dragon]

Any motherboard lights?

[lapis talon]

How's the Nothing 3a

Should I go for it

[fathom flax]

Motherboard doesn't have any lights

[dapper dragon]

No error lights on at all?

[fathom flax]

like it doesn't have any leds to show error lights

[dapper dragon]

Damn

[fathom flax]

I've tried updating the BIOS using the BIOS Flashback tool on my motherboard and currently the led for it is solid green so im not sure if its completed

[dapper dragon]

What mobo?

[swift moss]

cartoon ahh capacitors @rigid fjord

[fathom flax]

Asus Prime B650 Plus

[dapper dragon]

Try booting with 1 stick of ram

In the B1 slot (Second to left)

[rigid fjord]

that's a2 not b1

[rigid fjord]

fun capacitors tbh

[swift moss]

all the ess chips are overpriced af so im using texas intrusments pcm1690 now 😭

also wondering wether I should do a seperate or aio receiver (1 box vs 2 boxes)

[tidal geyser]

Let's goooo I was chosen

Muh 1080 ti, 650w A tier and 16GB of ram for 130$

I'm gonna pair the GPU with a 10500

[river harbor]

whats that a bid?

[iron glen]

no i think its just being sold

[somber void]

Someone in my area is selling a PC for 10€
The title of the listing is "Huge PC" (in my language)
From the pictures its some old AMD platform, probably AM2/3
Should i hit

[winter lantern]

Bro gonna buy a dust collector

[warm saddle]

is 90c on hotspot normal on rx 7800XT sapphire pulse?

Core temp is 68

[dreamy aspen]

yeah that's normal for radeon 7000 series card

[cunning flume]

How do i know if s motherboard is gonna fit into my case

[tidal geyser]

Yew

[warm saddle]

But at some test there is only 81 hot spot

[tidal geyser]

Eyes

And PCPartPicker

[dreamy aspen]

dunno these tests are utilizating the card less perhaps

[tidal geyser]

I love Google lense translate thingy

[cunning flume]

I got some 10 year old msi case that isnt there

[warm saddle]

I had lower temps 1 year ago

[tidal geyser]

It is but then it's probs ATX case

[iron glen]

it works well enough

[tidal geyser]

That is how it works yes

[tidal geyser]

Yup

[cunning flume]

How big is micro atx

[tidal geyser]

Pain

[warm saddle]

Why ? I had 82 and now 90

[tidal geyser]

It's fine

[tidal geyser]

Do you think it's smaller or bigger

[warm saddle]

What is the max?

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/motherboard-form-factor-moboff-motherboardff-gif-22614082

[tidal geyser]

110c

[cunning flume]

I think its a little smaler than my curent one

[tidal geyser]

Do you think it would fit in the case then?

[warm saddle]

Should i do a custom fan curve? Or is it useless

[tidal geyser]

I would not worry about it

[cunning flume]

Yea but i think my cpu coller is gonna touch my ram its so close together

[tidal geyser]

No it's not

[warm saddle]

Ok thanks

[abstract wigeon]

is there any potential downside to having one monitor in the gpu and one in cpu? eg increased cpu temps or something?

[primal sun]

left it to dry for 45 hrs. it seems to work perfectly now shall update in case any weird behavior occurs

[raven scroll]

Perofmrnace might be one

Man I wish I had the space to place another monitor

[primal sun]

how about a vertical mount

on the wall 👀

[raven scroll]

The objects in the way would be in front of the monitor

Unless I sacrifice my lava lamp and mini figure

Sorry auto correct

[primal sun]

what does your battle station look like right now

[raven scroll]

It’s black

There’s one monitor

I can send a pic but it’s outdated by 2 weeks

Can’t snap a new one rn

[cunning flume]

You can get a portable monitor

Its same size as a tablet

[somber void]

U forgot E-ATX

[swift moss]

Guess price

[swift moss]

MSI motherboard with stock Intel cooler

[somber void]

What is that

[swift moss]

Preamp for audio with a 200 dollar motherboard inside

[cunning flume]

Not that bad compared to my pc

[swift moss]

Guess the price of that preamp though

[somber void]

Respect

[chrome anchor]

I installed a single fan in my prebuilt pc and reapplied thermal paste and now it has gone to complete shit and now it can’t run games and none of the rgb works what should I do?

[swift moss]

They even kept the stock io shield how premium

[somber void]

600?

[cunning flume]

Like 50 bucks

"value 3.5"

More like -3.5 because there's a hole in your hole going backwards now

[somber void]

Why🙏

[swift moss]

Overpaying idiots, I bet I could design a similar preprocessor without the licenses to Dolby for around 35usd

[raven scroll]

I bought one of those

[swift moss]

Obviously with less inputs than 8 HDMI ports

[thin plover]

you can buy angled power connectors

[raven scroll]

But then I realized, I have no where to put it without my setup looking odd

[somber void]

What CPU does it even have

Intel T series?

[cunning flume]

Place it on your wall or just cut a hole through your table and place if its big

[swift moss]

Not clue, it shouldn't even be using a cpu

For 16k it better have custom designed hardware for specialised arm chips

Not an MSI motherboard

FFS you can buy a 1ghz DSP these days that can crunch numbers quicker than any cpu

[swift moss]

Or use an FPGA, like many preamps do - xilinx etc

[somber void]

Are DTX boards even still a thing?

[buoyant bridge]

Probably for special use cases

[buoyant bridge]

E-ATX isn't even defined it's just larger then ATX

[raven scroll]

Can’t shove some e atx in atx cases

[sinful cobalt]

add a E on the glass panel of the atx case, boom E-ATX

[abstract wigeon]

worth the £2

[raven scroll]

Genius

[tidal geyser]

Hungry cat

[raven scroll]

Hungry
🤤

[echo wagon]

my cats mean. she only lets you pet right behind her ear, anywhere else and she'll bite.

[iron glen]

mine will just bite me

[somber void]

I like when my cat bites me

[echo wagon]

lol

[somber void]

For my cat biting is a game

When she's playful she jumps on my arm and starts aggressively biting it

Call me crazy but It's kinda fun

[echo wagon]

mine is just bipolar, one moment she'll crawl on your lap and lay there but if you move even a single inch she will attack you

[somber void]

Lol

Mine doesn't want to lay on my lap unless i put her on my lap and scratch her in special areas

[raven scroll]

Would yall be interested in a cat server

[somber void]

Cat channel

[raven scroll]

Oh yeah that works

[somber void]

Should I tag Linus

[iron glen]

oh the guy who barely comes here? sure

[lethal bay]

I have a 20 year old cat that will smack my poodle up

[iron glen]

old timer

[somber void]

Sleeper build lol

[lethal bay]

like bro doesn’t care

[somber void]

I actually tried and apparently hes active somewhere and I can't tag him

[lethal bay]

yeah you can’t tag him here lmao

They just like… won’t let you

[gloomy sleet]

why i prefer dogs

i’ve been bitten by a cat too many times

[echo wagon]

me too, but my grandma has a cat, so we have a cat.

[gloomy sleet]

fair

dogs are just straight up pacifist creatures you could do anything to a dog and they’d still sleep on the end of your bed at night

other then a big as fuck xl bully maybe

[echo wagon]

had a great dane that was taller than me, thing was a 'lap dog'

[kindred halo]

Might have to resort to this if I can't negotiate the AM4 bundles to a reasonable price

[solar moat]

RIP

[kindred halo]

Said AM4 listing (1)

I want to ask how much the price is without the 960

Atleast it has an M.2 slot ig

[tidal geyser]

Finally sold a pc

[rigid fjord]

you're not doing it right then

[echo wagon]

don't tell me how to pet my own cat

she has her preference

[tidal geyser]

530$

the USD is funny

from 5300nok to USD its now 525

only like a year ago i think it was more like 5300 was 550 or smn

[solar moat]

my cat bites my leg some times

[tidal geyser]

anyways i almost have enough now to pay for rent and its still a long time until i need to pay 🙂

[rigid fjord]

tbf, i haven't had a pet other than my parrot that wouldn't let me give them fusses all over

[river harbor]

[river harbor]

[solar moat]

any chance you overclocked fclk on zen2/3

[rigid fjord]

kinda funny when i get other family members pets wanting fusses while deeply cuddling up against me

[river harbor]

no it just shuts off and restarts

[tidal geyser]

o yea im taking care of some cats now

im cat now

[tidal geyser]

im cat now v2

[solar moat]

shoud i change my PFP to be furry cat

[rigid fjord]

change it to whatever you like

[stone gazelle]

how much would yall charge for a mobo that has a fourth gen i7 and 32gb of DDR3 RAM? i got one such thing and i should sell it bc i no longer have any use for it

[mint umbra]

Does cpu even matter for 4k gaming much

Since most games are gpu bound

[plush wren]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1036457460183081001/1273282847129731132/laaaaaaaaaa.gif

[tidal geyser]

i guess 40$

[tidal geyser]

if you use upscaling it can VERY much be cpu needy

[mint umbra]

I usually play native

[gloomy sleet]

any dog is a lap dog with enough will power

[echo wagon]

I mean she never wanted to get off my lap.

[tidal geyser]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GIvrMWzr9k&t

Would this be okay for $50 without the 960

[ebon marlin]

yeah

[tidal geyser]

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/windows-11-home/dg7gmgf0krt0

[whole garden]

Man, I was about to send that.

[tidal geyser]

:3

[whole garden]

Nice pfp

[blazing hare]

Is upgrade Ryzen 7 5700x to 5 9600x worth it chat

[tidal geyser]

its one of the cats im taking care of for a few weeks

[tidal geyser]

xd

i would not even call it a upgrade

[abstract wigeon]

dependss on what youre doing

[blazing hare]

Really why

[tidal geyser]

i would call it more of a new experience into computing

[blazing hare]

Am4 to 5

[blazing hare]

Gaming

[tidal geyser]

the 9600X i think is on par with a 5800X3D

[abstract wigeon]

if i was you i would save some money and just go for the 7600x but im a budget monkey

[tidal geyser]

or 7600

[whole garden]

[abstract wigeon]

completely depends on what game youre playing

[blazing hare]

What’s the difference between x and no x chips

[abstract wigeon]

yeah i shouldve said that i literally use a 7600

with pbo its basically a 7600x anyways

[tidal geyser]

one comes with a cooler

[abstract wigeon]

save some money

[blazing hare]

That’s it ?

[tidal geyser]

and is cheaper

the performance difference is so small to the point its hard to mention it

[abstract wigeon]

slightly higher clocks with the x varient but not really any real world difference at all

[blazing hare]

But I just feel cooler having that x

[abstract wigeon]

only reason i wouldnt recommend the 7500f is no igpu

[tidal geyser]

what???

[abstract wigeon]

i also spend money for no reason sometimes

[blazing hare]

Lmao im kidding

[blazing hare]

Am4 to 5 I feel like it’s worth it and you can sell 5700x for good price still

[abstract wigeon]

yeah it is good but no point choosing the 7600x over the 7600

keep in mind its a big upgrade you need new mobo and ram also

and possibly cooler

[blazing hare]

Yeah but for the long run it’s worth it

[abstract wigeon]

defo

i camme from a 9600k to a 7600 and was big upgrade very cool

[blazing hare]

You mean from 7600 to 9600 ?

[abstract wigeon]

no i used to have a 9600k now i am on a 7600

[tidal geyser]

no intel is fake

[blazing hare]

Oh why

[tidal geyser]

what do you mean why

[abstract wigeon]

hes got a point im moving back to the 9600k

[blazing hare]

9600k is newer ?

[tidal geyser]

what crack you snorting

[tidal geyser]

5 year difference

[blazing hare]

Bro I thought u meant Ryzen

[abstract wigeon]

there is no ryzen 9600k 💔

theres an x though!

[blazing hare]

Idk that 😭

[abstract wigeon]

💔

[kindred halo]

I think the poor guy thought you meant an i5 7600

[abstract wigeon]

my bad 😪

[blazing hare]

No Ryzen 9600 to 7600 I was like what

[kindred halo]

The K was probably enough of a hint to mean an Intel processor

[blazing hare]

I thought they had k Ryzen for some reason lmao

[kindred halo]

</3

[serene pumice]

Lol, only 6 cores.
My AMD Bulldozer FX-8350 from 2012 got 8 cores.

[tidal geyser]

there is no and will never be a K ryzen

[serene pumice]

[tidal geyser]

"8" cores

[kindred halo]

1984.gif

[serene pumice]

Jelly much?

[abstract wigeon]

yeah i only got it because i got a good deal on ebay

[serene pumice]

Same.

Anything runs chrome.exe

[serene pumice]

Ah, PewDiePie, my fave Japenes person

[silk sun]

i want to change my search engine to duckduckgo but i can't find it in the options in edge like it shows in the duckduckgo site

[tidal geyser]

just get firefox

[dapper dragon]

Because Edge is a virus

[gloomy sleet]

just put the firefox in the bag bro

[dense oak]

get brave

[serene pumice]

or, LibreWolf!

[tawdry coyote]

i can't type in settings, or any other microsoft application but web browsers, steam discord all work, how do i fix?

[serene pumice]

I tell everyone to get Librewolf
While using chrome.

[tawdry coyote]

the password thing doesn't recognise me pressing space to show the input box but i can still use keyboard for my pin

[dense oak]

Fun fact if you are in EU and uninstall edge, it doesnt really get uninstalled it is just removed from the start menu. There is still an EXE you can run in Program Files

[tawdry coyote]

isn't that against eu law

[serene pumice]

Everything is against eu law

[tidal geyser]

edge is a core part of windows

[tawdry coyote]

yeah but they made some ruling saying you must be able to uninstall it and make another browser the default

[dense oak]

pretty sure but youd have to be like an EU citizen and call a local representative and have enough people annoy them about this so that higher EU annoys them

[tawdry coyote]

also anyone know??

[tidal geyser]

fun fact more and more countries in the EU are switching to linux and open source office stuff

[tawdry coyote]

no im pretty sure that already happened

[dense oak]

FALSE! I had 0 issues without edge and webview2 for few months now

[blazing hare]

Just pirate it

[dapper dragon]

Messenger also runs off of it

[tidal geyser]

what????

[dense oak]

They made microsoft let you uninstall it, microsoft lets u uninstall it but it lies that is uninstalled

[dapper dragon]

Anytime you open Facebook Messenger on your PC check Task Manager lol

[blazing hare]

Pirate all Microsoft and adobe software💯

[dense oak]

ew facebook

[serene pumice]

I also pirated Linux.

[dapper dragon]

Do you have no family mf

[tidal geyser]

you cant pirate it

[dense oak]

VIBER or Whatcapp

[dapper dragon]

I pirated YouTube

[tawdry coyote]

fellas i am kinda in an emergency why can't i type anything on microsoft applications, nor does it recognise my keyboard

[dapper dragon]

I have every YT video

[lapis talon]

So if I was going to mount a 360mm LF3 at the front, with the fans outside the case, would I have enough clearance for the rad inside the case?

[dapper dragon]

Turn it off and back on

[serene pumice]

Real ones only download their Linux Distros from The Pirate Bay

[dense oak]

Do people even pirate windows these days or do they just remove the watermark?

[tawdry coyote]

no workey

[blazing hare]

You can 💯

[tawdry coyote]

and there's this weird gery box with a green circle in the middle that i can't screenshot

[dapper dragon]

Average Windows experience ngl

[dense oak]

reset pc, check for updates

[serene pumice]

No, Windows got validation command built in nowadays

[tawdry coyote]

windows 10 bruh no updates happening

[dapper dragon]

I know some people who have still for Windows 11

[serene pumice]

Windows 10 iot ltsc ftw, valid until 2032, gratis är gott, free is tasty
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJkRd9py5mA

[tawdry coyote]

The weird box in question

[serene pumice]

imagine being a beta-tester for free

[lapis talon]

Montech Air1000 premium case, nitro+ 9070 xt

[dapper dragon]

It updates as if it’s a legit copy

[solar stirrup]

Anyone know why i get insane lag spikes whenever mem reaches 51% and resets down to 10%? game freezes for like a whole second every 5 seconds...

[elder quarry]

Oh that’s something good right

[left dove]

Very carefully

[dense oak]

boot into linux live iso and remove all partitions on the drive

linux mint live iso has GPARTED app that lets you do that

[left dove]

Get another computer

get usb drive

get windows 11 media creation tool

burn to usb

boot from usb

install over broken windows

[tawdry coyote]

how?

[elder quarry]

Well Microsoft applications

Expensive, closed source and intensive

[tawdry coyote]

I CANT EVEN USE SETTINGS

[left dove]

It lets you, trust.

[dense oak]

Do you have a USB with windows ISO?

[elder quarry]

Same, I use CLI because I don’t have any settings

[dense oak]

You can allocate more ram?

[elder quarry]

No other choice

[left dove]

too bad in that case? just stay on 11 and stop complaining about the ui

[dense oak]

how the hell did u break win 11 so much?

[solar stirrup]

doesnt help. makes it refresh at a lower % usage and stutters become even bigger

[elder quarry]

Lonux

[tawdry coyote]

i don't think you understand, I can't search i cant use file explorer i don't even know if i can log back in.

[left dove]

"wahh bloat & telemetry" I don't see yall goobers complaining that much about your phones that do the same thing

[dense oak]

use optifine or that other modern tool for fps and stuff maybe it helps

[solar stirrup]

im on a fresh install of lunar

[tawdry coyote]

now can anyone actually help before the pc bricks its self?

[left dove]

Reinstall windows, dude

I just told you omfg

[elder quarry]

Oh same! I don’t have a file explorer, I usually use find and grep, and also plocate

[dense oak]

bro go on youtube

1923u84 tutorials very simple

[tawdry coyote]

blocked.

[silk sun]

ok i adopted firefox. how can i permanantly banish edge to the abyss

[elder quarry]

https://youtu.be/_Ua-d9OeUOg

[left dove]

cringe tbh, announcing blocks

[left dove]

too bad its needed by windows so get comfy with it's existence

[silk sun]

wait really? wasn't there a script in win10 that could perma delete it? does it not work on win11

[tawdry coyote]

if he's gonna be like hur hur linux it's not very helpful when my one and only computer is slowly and i can't even get to settings to reset windows.

[left dove]

What is with you dorks trying to tear apart an os that doesn't like being torn apart, all you're doing is causing more headaches for yourselves later down the line

just use the fkn operating system like it is

[elder quarry]

👍

https://tenor.com/view/yetopen-gif-27266616

[left dove]

I've been running an unmodified 11 pro install for the last 2 years and not once have I had an issue with anything pertaining to security/UI/performance

I genuinely don't know how yall keep breaking your installs, its wild to me

[tawdry coyote]

i ain't fucked with it or downloaded anything malicious

i have NO idea why this is happening

[elder quarry]

Well yeah, there are millions, possibly billions of people using windows

[distant frigate]

So glad I’m on windows 11 lol. Just like being on the latest version for some reason

I’m like this against all software

[elder quarry]

Arch Linux hheheh

[distant frigate]

I went as far as to install iOS 26 beta 1 on my primary driver. Don’t recommend though if you hate lag and prioritize battery life

[elder quarry]

lol

[blazing hare]

What phone ?

[distant frigate]

iPhone 15 Pro

[blazing hare]

Beta 2 isn’t that laggy at all on 16 pro max for me

[river harbor]

does anyone know if ups gives a fuck about shipping damage

its insured and I think they packaged it but atp idk

[left dove]

If it's insured file a claim

[river harbor]

I asked the seller to, I dont think i can on my side right?

[left dove]

You can. You paid for the insurance

[river harbor]

I will try cause it was bad

[dapper dragon]

My battery health has dropped 7% since downloading it, 0% the previous 7 months

[left dove]

If it's eBay get them involved too

[river harbor]

it was $800 but ig theyll probably just refund me for like 100 or 200 if at all

[elder quarry]

I lost my developer beta, is it available for public beta?

[river harbor]

I dont want the seller paying it out of their pocket, theyre already making like 400 from the sale

[dapper dragon]

That shit looks deliberate

[river harbor]

but I will contact ebay

[river harbor]

yeah right 😭😭

the noctua

[dapper dragon]

Looks like you pissed off andre the giant

[distant frigate]

I don’t think it is yet

[dapper dragon]

It is

[distant frigate]

Wait what

[river harbor]

if ups does send a check ill be glad cause I wanted to replace the case either way

they just gave me a reason to

[dapper dragon]

Nvrm, it was for the announcement of it

[tidal geyser]

gamer

[river harbor]

also does anyone know if its fine to turn off c states?

on auto my mouse lags and my pc randomly restarts

[tidal geyser]

you can turn em off just not great for the power bill

[river harbor]

😔

is auto and on the same?

[dapper dragon]

It’s sometime this month

[river harbor]

it crashes on auto, but not off

i'll try on and pray

but im kinda glad, I thought the gpu was dead

[blazing hare]

It’s free to get now

[river harbor]

is it too bad? on auto it was pulling like 90w idle

[elder quarry]

Ouch, that means my phone is EOL

[river harbor]

my fan was going so crazy I thought I fucked the thermal paste application

[blazing hare]

Which one is it

[river harbor]

oh

[elder quarry]

Se 2020
Or do I have to enroll to 26?

[river harbor]

I can tell its old by the screen ratio

[blazing hare]

You have to choose iOS 26 not 18 beta

[blazing hare]

Yes

[dapper dragon]

Is this an SE lol

[elder quarry]

Not there at least

I don’t remember how I got public

[blazing hare]

You have to sign up for developer and install profile from Apple website

[dapper dragon]

Cartis is trippin

[river harbor]

will lysol on an unpowered motherboard kill it

[dapper dragon]

It’s still dev beta until later this month

[dapper dragon]

Just use 99% alc

[river harbor]

too late

[rigid ether]

why is rtx 5050 a thing

[blazing hare]

Yes it’s free

[tidal geyser]

money

[river harbor]

I soaked it in lysol

[dapper dragon]

Or bleach and vinegar

[left dove]

who the fuck uses lysol on electronic components are you actually-

nevermind you do you boo

[river harbor]

but ill soak it in alcohol before turning it on ig

[elder quarry]

Already done
Also enrol

[river harbor]

it was kinda dead

[dapper dragon]

Soak?!

[elder quarry]

Sadge

[river harbor]

for some reason it died when I dissasembled it

memory initialization error but it works fine on my other motherboard

[rigid fjord]

neither of these are good options to use on electronics ffs

[left dove]

I'm really glad I never went and worked for that local pc repair shop

[river harbor]

I think it was when I tried removing the bent noctua

[rigid ether]

no if its 90%

[dapper dragon]

You failed chemistry class

[river harbor]

or the stuck standoff

[left dove]

because I think I'd be dealing with dumb shit like this constantly & I would not be able to keep my mouth shut 😂

[river harbor]

do you think it'll be fine if I wipe the lysol woth %90

[rigid ether]

yes

[rigid fjord]

nope, the only thing to use would be iso alc

[river harbor]

it was dead before 😩😩

[left dove]

fucking lysol 😂

[dapper dragon]

I own a large part of one and yeah you’ll wanna rip your jaw off

[blazing hare]

https://beta.apple.com/

[river harbor]

maybe the lysol revived it

[rigid ether]

it will die

[rigid fjord]

you'd most likely end up commiting murder

[rigid ether]

do u not have ethanol

[dapper dragon]

Nah, use vinegar and bleach

[river harbor]

nah

[rigid ether]

buy some ethanol

[left dove]

I'm so so glad I stayed freelance and my client base is mainly old people w/ easy fixes (They also give me snacks when I come over!!)

[river harbor]

ill buy iso from the pharmacy

[rigid fjord]

no, isopropyl alcohol

[left dove]

Fuggin' love my clients

[river harbor]

pc troubleshooting sounds like hell though

it is hell

[rigid ether]

gud

[rigid ether]

make sure its 90% or above

[dapper dragon]

I handle a lot of the enterprise part of the company so they usually shut up and let me do what I need to when it’s an on site fix

[left dove]

Troubleshooting isn't hell, it's pc owners doing the dumbest shit like using lysol to clean a pcb

[dapper dragon]

The joke is so far over your head it hurts

[river harbor]

the pcb was dead!!

[dapper dragon]

You flunked chem

[river harbor]

I was making sure it was dead enough

but I mean the software issues

[left dove]

Stay away from expensive things.

[river harbor]

like a pc that randomly crashes

goodluck figuring out which of the 100 causes it is 😭

[rigid ether]

if its 90% or above its good

[river harbor]

hey but I haven't plugged it in yet

[left dove]

You say that like I want anything to do with your shit

[dapper dragon]

Wdym?

[left dove]

lmao

[rigid ether]

pure ethanol doesnt conduct electricity

[left dove]

isopropyl alcohol is not ethanol.

[rigid ether]

its the same thing

[left dove]

nnnno, it's not

[river harbor]

whatever, do you think it will live after wiping it with iso?

[river harbor]

its discharged and I haven't plugged anything into it

or do I just throw it away

[left dove]

wow weird I'm right again

[dapper dragon]

I wasn’t even commenting on your ethanol dilemma, I’m wondering how long it takes the other guy to realize what I was saying

[rigid ether]

nvm it is polar

it has OH group

[left dove]

doesn't bleach & acetic acid make chlorine gas or something

[teal sphinx]

is am4 motherboard cpu cooler bracket plastic?

[latent pasture]

yes

[left dove]

oh no that's bleach & ammonia

[latent pasture]

thats like the worst part of it

[dapper dragon]

I thought this was common knowledge lol

Bleach and Vinegar lol

[left dove]

people nowadays are fucking stupid tbh

[dapper dragon]

The Canadian banned war crime

[teal sphinx]

that's replied to me?

[river harbor]

so do I wipe it again or no

[dapper dragon]

Actually germany but we made it better

[river harbor]

peyton you sound smart

is it dead dead or just dirty

[left dove]

thank, i am smart

dude idfk, give it an iso bath first and let it ait dry before fucking with it, you probably already caused some form of corrosion

[dapper dragon]

My Fiance did that once

[left dove]

OH NO

[elder quarry]

Yeah

[blazing hare]

Yes sign up for developer program

[teal sphinx]

ya

because the mobo don't have these
so i want to buy them

so i can use those universal heatsink

but these are plastic so idk if it is ok

[latent pasture]

whats wrong with a normal cooler

most of them replace this with their own bracket

[river harbor]

^^

[teal sphinx]

i'm just buying some used tower cooler, they use the latch thingy

[river harbor]

I think only a few use the stock brackets

[left dove]

I knew of like, one aio that used the stock mounting tabs

[river harbor]

what tower cooler

[latent pasture]

old ones

[river harbor]

whats the price of this

and whats the price of the old tower cooler

[teal sphinx]

this is like 1$

i'm planning to get this cooler

[river harbor]

oh yeah no idea

[left dove]

?? just buy a hyper 212

[teal sphinx]

this is like 4$

[river harbor]

I was gonna say just get a thermalright

but idk that market

[latent pasture]

does ur cpu not have free stock cooler

[rigid ether]

def not 4$

[teal sphinx]

used cpu so nope

[river harbor]

yeah I assumed this was usa

[teal sphinx]

i was looking at buying stock cooler too

then i still need the bracket, and it's worse performance than these

[gentle kestrel]

honestly that looks fine

has plenty of heat pipes

[latent pasture]

well its probably fine
u really only break that bracket if u install like a dozen times

[river harbor]

what cpu tho

[teal sphinx]

1700

[river harbor]

model

[teal sphinx]

ryzen 7 1700

[latent pasture]

the cooler isnt rly a problem its the breaky breaky latch thingy installer that everyone hates

[river harbor]

oh yeah youre fine prob

[teal sphinx]

i know it's old, but i can get it for real cheap and it's sufficient for me

it's like 15$

[river harbor]

I had a core 2 quad that went to like 100w and the temperature sensor would glitch ans report like 48828288183737282813°C

[gentle kestrel]

the stock amd mount isn’t that bad but for that price it’s worth putting up with

[teal sphinx]

wtf

[dapper dragon]

I just slam that shit down atp

Never had one break

[gentle kestrel]

i will say the one on my am3 board behaves more

[teal sphinx]

this look quite nice, 4 heatpipe and got pwm

amd stock heatsink also selling for like 4$ so between this and stock cooler yeah i'm going for this

[latent pasture]

it says intel on top left
is the foreign text saying am4 or amd

[teal sphinx]

they also provide intel universal mounting bracket

[latent pasture]

well this isnt intel

[teal sphinx]

they got those weird bracket you can install on intel board

and it become like amd stock mounting bracket

and you just latch it on

[gentle kestrel]

oh yeah that’s a thing they do on lga 2011 a lot too

[latent pasture]

oh so its more like its made for amd with some extras to use it on intel

[teal sphinx]

yup
