[twin grove]

I... haven't used windows in like a few years lol

[clever burrow]

nah itl be on my dresser im just worried about the water since its a humidifier

[vapid sentinel]

So you don’t need to reinstall the entire OS every time a setting changes x)

[twin grove]

is it a humidifier or oil difffuser

[clever burrow]

an oil diffuser is like a humidifier

[twin grove]

well I couldn't open contol pannel even it was like fully fubar'ed

[twin grove]

well yeah and the oil in the air does like eventually collect on surfaces right like I haven't used one in forever but its like how cooking oil in the kitchen slowly builds up on the walls

[cold skiff]

Sounds like you could do with the new OS. Doors++ if Windows are not working for you

[clever burrow]

fuck that then ill use febreze

[cold skiff]

Probably technically worse

Water builds up and leaves deposits. Oil doesn’t.

[rigid ether]

Should I get a 1440p or 4k monitor for my 4080 super

[cold skiff]

8k monitor tbh

[rigid ether]

I play single player

[twin grove]

I need windows for a couple games I would stick to ubuntu if I could

[cold skiff]

100% 8k monitor

[twin grove]

depends on like what screen size you want

[cold skiff]

You’ll be a the king of 30fps

[twin grove]

and refresh rate

[rigid ether]

is there a large difference visually

[rigid ether]

32 inch 4k vs 27 inch 2k

[twin grove]

depends mostly on pixels per inch a smaller monitor you don't need 4k for it I would only use 4k if you are going 30"+

[cold skiff]

108ppi v 163ppi

[twin grove]

I have a 32" 1440p and it looks fine with aa in 99% of games

[rigid ether]

whats the one game that doesnt look ok

[cold skiff]

You also have to think to yourself. Do I want to be one of those tossers with a curved monitor?

[rigid ether]

on

[cold skiff]

‘Cause that’s 99% 4K monitors

[rigid ether]

no I like flat

I found a flat 4k monitor

[twin grove]

I only have a 3060 so its only games that I can't turn up AA

[vapid sentinel]

I have a 4080 and I love 1440p gaming

You rlly don’t need it to be 4K

Just prioritise clarity and fidelity colours etc. a nice panel

[twin grove]

yeah but some features are mutually exclusive with 4k my next monitor is going to be 4k because I like 32"+ monitors and I want an oled with more than 144hz and there isn't any 1440p oled pannels that size

[rigid ether]

do u think 4080 super might not be able to run newer AAA games in the future due to its vram?

on 4k

[twin grove]

I mean eventually but it depends on how far in the furure we are talking

[vapid sentinel]

I think it’s still very capable

Maybe the biggest trade off would be going high rt 4K res instead of ultra

[rigid ether]

5 years

[dapper dragon]

I think it’ll hold up

[cold skiff]

Let’s be real. Will you be playing OSRS on a 4K monitor?

[twin grove]

16gb should last a good 7-10 years honestly at 4k you might have to turn texture quaality down but the last generation of gtx titan cards still are good 1440p gaming cards

[rigid ether]

no

[cold skiff]

GTX Titan cards?

[twin grove]

brain fart on acual name but the pascal titan card

[cold skiff]

Wasn’t the last titan like 2017ish

You mean 90 class

[twin grove]

there was the rxt titan but I was talking about the one before that 10 series

[cold skiff]

I mean titans were always garbage price to perf

And aged horribly for gaming tbh

[twin grove]

nah the 10 series titan like still keeps up with a 3060 and the new 5050 is going to have worse preformance than that

I need to get my hand on another because I haven't gotten to benchmark one against a 3060 in a while but like seriously last I seen it was about the same in raster

[cold skiff]

Unless you’re buying a 5080 imo don’t go 4K. You’ll keep chasing the latest gen to get the performance you generally want. Some people are happy just having 4K but no point without the bells and whistles. I guess upscaling helps that, but if you 4K game you gotta do it right imo

I have a friend who was happy gaming 4K on a 3080 and recently got a 9070xt. He said the performance uplift for him was massive. So to me, that says you need to be a latest gen chaser.

Depends on how you game I guess

[twin grove]

some thigns are mutualy exclusive to 4k though I like 32"+ monitors and I want my next one to be oled and there aren't any 1440p pannels that are oled that I know of

[sinful cobalt]

5070Ti is minimum for 4k

[twin grove]

if you aren't happy with the preformance you can always half the rener resolution and have it look fine

[sinful cobalt]

5080 is like, 10-15% better than 70Ti iirc

[rigid ether]

Does Frame gen make stuff look visually much worse?

[sinful cobalt]

U can OC the 70Ti to be like 5% less than a 5080, but OC the 5080 and its in 4090 territory

[sinful cobalt]

no

[vapid sentinel]

4090 owners rejoice

[cold skiff]

I mean I just googled 1440p OLED and top result for UK was a 1440p OLED monitor https://www.ebuyer.com/2537421-exdisplay-aw-34-qd-oled-gaming-mon-aw3423dwf-ebr1-game-aw3423dwf?gclsrc=aw.ds&&mkwid=s_dm&pcrid=756063704841&pkw=&pmt=&utm_term=&utm_campaign=&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_acc=1530083092&hsa_cam=22633792229&hsa_grp=181059001152&hsa_ad=756063704841&hsa_src=g&hsa_tgt=pla-297612067635&hsa_kw=&hsa_mt=&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22633792229&gbraid=0AAAAAD-weeY5YCSJj3lWUax1o-nVsbu0q&gclid=Cj0KCQjwvajDBhCNARIsAEE29Wo3HIKj4ptJW_3p928P_BI5u8C-CmimA9aUL7I5WIhoRe0oVL4V6kMaAp0fEALw_wcB

[vapid sentinel]

This reminds me I am also in the market for a monitor

[cold skiff]

The more you buy the more you save

[sinful cobalt]

its taking them 3 years to make a 80 class card to tie with the 4090

[twin grove]

im blocked from that website somehow...

[vapid sentinel]

What type of Jedi mind trick did Jensen hit u with

[rigid ether]

What fps do u aim for in single player games?

[grizzled frost]

you mean 1 generation?

[grizzled frost]

60

[vapid sentinel]

Like 100-110

[sinful cobalt]

technically 1.5

[ember jacinth]

Okay chat so like, I bumped into my desk and now my PC no longer is registering my GPU and is using integrated graphics. However, I am plugged in through the GPU which is strange. I've reseated it twice to no avail, any takers?

[grizzled frost]

i don’t count the super refresh as a generation at all

[vapid sentinel]

I’m an all round 100fps enjoyer

[cold skiff]

ASUS do 1440p OLED apparently also. I guess content creators made you believe only 4k can be OLED

[grizzled frost]

plus what do you want? you want the 4080S to be better than the 4090?

[rigid ether]

how far should I be seated from my monitor for 32 inch?

[cold skiff]

Apparently if you remove VRAM and 9 months latter add it back on it’s a super series now. Right?

[sinful cobalt]

it can match it in horsepower, but I found that the power draw between 400-450 is quite inconsistent

[cold skiff]

Your face isn’t right up against the monitor? My mind is blown.

[rigid ether]

its right up

[rigid ether]

or does it not matter

[grizzled frost]

it’s entirely what you find comfortable

[twin grove]

a lot of those are 3440x1440 and 4k is 3840 so yeah its 1440 but its also not standard 1440p I was talking closer to standard 1440p not alomst 4k

[grizzled frost]

the answer to “how far away should i be from X monitor” is always whatever you find comfortable

[twin grove]

they are basically right in the middle of standard 1440 and 4k but closer to 4k so I always condidered them 4k

[grizzled frost]

I don’t, i consider 1440p monitors 1440p, regardless of width

[twin grove]

and if there is any standard 1440p oled pannels that are 32"+ would be new because I looked last year and nobody even made the pannels to make the monitors last time I looked

[rigid ether]

hmmm used 4k oled 32 inch for 573 usd(67 hours) or new oled 1440p 27 inch for 548 usd

[grizzled frost]

32in should be 4k, otherwise your fucked by DPI

[twin grove]

what if its 3840x1440 because standard 4k height is 3840

[grizzled frost]

standard 4k height is 2160, width is 3840

and it doesn’t matter, it’s still 1440p

[twin grove]

err right backwards

[vapid sentinel]

Same as a 27inch

[sinful cobalt]

iirc 1440p 32’ has similar ppi as 1080p 27’

[grizzled frost]

eh i’d sit just a little further away than i would with 27in, so none of the monitor is in my periphery

[twin grove]

but its not the same as standard 1440p in preformance needed to run its much closer to 4k so thats why I go by which ever standard res its closest too I get its tecnically 1440p but its going to run and look more like 4k

[grizzled frost]

93 vs 82 for 1440p 32 and 1080p 27

and i find 1080p 27 to be a bit lacking imo

[sinful cobalt]

it is

lowk i forgot if its 32 or 34 thats similar to fhd 27’

[grizzled frost]

at 27in 1440p is perfect, at 32-42in 4k is perfect

anything below 27in is either a mobile device, or ewaste, anything above 42in is a TV, it should be in your living room, not your desk

a bit hyperbolic, but you get my meaning

[plain cypress]

I recently saw a reddit post where people were arguing 2k = 1440p

It made me wanna commit violence

[vapid sentinel]

Oh I had a curved one in mind

[grizzled frost]

i hate anyone that use “2k”

the only “#k” i tolerate is 4k, anything else pisses me off

no i don’t know what 5k, or 6k is

[plain cypress]

https://2k.com/

[south arrow]

Silly geese

[vapid sentinel]

Apple 5.1k Retina display

[grizzled frost]

why is there decimals in my resolution nomenclature! (filter caused the ghost ping cause of caps)

[plain cypress]

2.56k 🤓

[grizzled frost]

damn you apple!

[grizzled frost]

Get out.

Now.

[twin grove]

I don't even like using that since its measuring width insted of height like all other monitor sizes it should be called 2160p

[plain cypress]

https://tenor.com/view/computer-whats-a-computer-tablet-gif-11564169

[twin grove]

at least for the standard 4k size

[grizzled frost]

4k almost always refers to 2160 being the vertical height anyways!

[twin grove]

but not all

[grizzled frost]

people will use 21:9 monitors and still call it 4k

[twin grove]

there are 4kx1440p monitors out there and I have seen 4kx1080

[south arrow]

Lmao

[grizzled frost]

so 1440p and 1080p monitors

yes 32:9 exists hence 3840x1080

and 21:9 for the 3840x1440 monitor? not sure on the aspect ratio there

[sinful cobalt]

I use 1440p 27’ but 4K DSR for videos

[twin grove]

they aren't 3840 exactly but still marketed as 4k weirdly enough

my current monitor is 32" 1440p standard

[grizzled frost]

i’ve never seen any reputable retailers advertising based on resolution width

[grizzled frost]

by “standard” you mean 16:9, right?

[twin grove]

yeah

[grizzled frost]

also why is every tv 16:9 when most movies use wider aspect ratios?

[twin grove]

because for a while most shows and movies where 16x9 and they never switched away from it

[grizzled frost]

i want a 1.78:1 tv, now!

[empty quartz]

I think minecraft might be having a moment

70% cpu utilization on fucking Minecraft

[grizzled frost]

depending on mods and settings minecraft can get pretty cpu intensive

[fallen sky]

Good deal?

[rigid ether]

Is 27 inch 1440p close to 32 inch 4k

[cold skiff]

Tbh 4k is perfect for 720p stretched black bars cs2

Come to think of it. Surprised esports hasn’t standardised and imposed resolution, refresh and settings locks.

[crude junco]

Hey does anyone know what the best low profile cpu cooler is ? I'm gonna be building in a Formd T1 with a 9800x3d, I know it's a very efficient CPU so the cooler shouldn't matter a crazy amount but still wanna check what people would recommend

[cold skiff]

The only “sport” that allows advantages legally I guess

That tbh are pretty unfair

[twin grove]

right league of legends zoom is based off the height in the aspect ratio so if you have a wide enough monitor it baiscally is cheating because you can see like half the map

[cold skiff]

NH L9A is probably a safe bet

[crude junco]

Alright cool that's the one I was considering anyway, figured noctua is usually the way to go

[cold skiff]

If your hardware is better than standard and you can see more detail another player can’t see. Isn’t that technically cheating* because there are no enforced limits? Let’s blow esports wide open

[cold skiff]

IIRC you’re limited in that case to no AIO unless you remove the top panel and fk about with it and you have no room for a tower

Or mount outside the case for AIO but fk about still

You can shove 2 nice fans at the top so pulling air out isn’t an issue

Gpu is the issue as it’s probably gonna be right up against the panel

You’ll want a blower gpu

[crude junco]

Yeah I'm gonna be using the 9070 xt , the power colour reaper model so it should have enough room and such, it's a fairly small model

[twin grove]

not really for the most part it doesn't matter to them there are professional players who turn it down because they prefer a lower resolution or aspect ratio

[empty quartz]

Any of you nerds see mc needing more than 32gb of ram

[twin grove]

there is a counter strike pro player who uses like less than half the standard screen resolution that evens gave its a box that is half the size of the monitor its so weird

[twin grove]

lol modded minecraft is half the reason I have 32GB of ram right now

the other is unity stuffs making custom vrchat avatars

[velvet oar]

Howdy

Does anyone here own a flatscreen TV I need help with an issue

[empty quartz]

Only 32?

[twin grove]

well I originally bought a 2x8 kit so I just bought an identical kit to max out my slots once I get the money I am hopefully going to get some used server hardware and run 2 32 or 64 core epyc cpus beause occasionally you can get a steal on them and ill make a server with way noire

[cold skiff]

Depends on the game.

[empty quartz]

@twin grove

Minecraft with 3 mods using 40gb of ram

[velvet oar]

I have question does anyone here know how to record of a flatscreen TV that doesnt have an AV out

[empty quartz]

Huh

[cold skiff]

That ram usage on Minecraft is wild

[twin grove]

see I have never gotten above like 20 with like 40+ mods and 200+ chunk render distance

[empty quartz]

I have it set to 512

[cold skiff]

Get your phone. Hold it up. Hit record.

[velvet oar]

the TV where I am at doesnt have AV out and ive never fucked with a digital TV so i have no clue how to record to my VCR

[velvet oar]

I own a flip phone the recording quality is basically useless

[empty quartz]

Literally no modern tv has av out

[cold skiff]

You’re using HDMI for your tv… right?

[twin grove]

ah I run into other preformance bottle necks weirdly enough before then

[velvet oar]

no my VCR doesnt have HDMI

[cold skiff]

But your tv….

[velvet oar]

damn I wanted to record a few movies while i was here since they have alot of streaming services and blu-rays of movies

[empty quartz]

@velvet oar just build a capture system, all you need is a capture card and lots of storage

[velvet oar]

the TV has USB and HDMI

[cold skiff]

Then you need a capture card to a PC or similar

[velvet oar]

I have a capture card that lets me put my VHS tapes on my PC

[empty quartz]

@twin grove ive been running into the performance issues

[velvet oar]

but i want to go backwards

[empty quartz]

Not the type im talking about

[velvet oar]

and record tapes of movies off the TV

[cold skiff]

Well you’re shit out of luck without an old TV

Get down your thrift/charity shop

[twin grove]

ah yeah I turn settings down untill I hit around my monitors refres rate so 165hz

[velvet oar]

That really sucks

[empty quartz]

@velvet oar stuff like this can be gotten for cheap

[cold skiff]

Why does it suck?

Using what the kids today consider ancient tech

[velvet oar]

I do not want to buy an entire ass TV to record movies

[cold skiff]

You can’t expect old standards to be kept when they’re not used

You only need a cheap $20 tv someone stuck in their kitchen in the late 90s/early 00s. You even had inbuilt VCRs

[velvet oar]

All i have is ancient tech it is why i am recording things to a VHS tape

[cold skiff]

Unless you’re 80. Get with the times

[velvet oar]

I cant burn a DVD

[cold skiff]

Or be resourceful

[velvet oar]

I am not 80 and getting with the times costs money

[cold skiff]

You can easily find an external DVD burner these days

[empty quartz]

@cold skiff btw, if you think the ram usage is crazy, just see my memory capacity, and when im running y-cruncher

[cold skiff]

I think a couple of years ago I bought my manager a £20 one

[velvet oar]

but also thank you I will look into that

[cold skiff]

You sound tight af. Like the sort of person to have 1 plate, 1 knife, 1 fork and 1 pot to cook in

[twin grove]

yeah but that costs money once you get everything set up to upgrade everything would take a lot of money since you would have to replace litteraly everything and start over

[cold skiff]

You could probably pick up a cheap old flat panel tv off FB marketplace for $20

[velvet oar]

Nah we have silverware but i just never had to buy a TV i was born with one and getting a flatscreen TV costs alot of money for something I do not need plus the TV i have still works aswell as about every piece of analog tech since the 70s my family has had works still, however i am on vacation currently and my grandparents have a modern TV and their VCR cant record it

[cold skiff]

This is wild.

[winter lantern]

I hate when I see a goated marketplace deal but its like 80 miles away

[warm sage]

Is there a community maybe on reddit where people offer to upload stuff on their cdns using their fast internets

[winter lantern]

💔

[velvet oar]

not wanting to spend money on a TV because you have one?

[cold skiff]

It’s wild how frugal you are yet you are on vacation

[empty quartz]

@cold skiff

[velvet oar]

to be fair I am from a rural as fuck area that didnt get internet till 2017 so I am always going to be somewhat behind the times

[cold skiff]

Fk man. How you using 120

[empty quartz]

Y-cruncher

[cold skiff]

If you got it ya gotta use it I guess

[velvet oar]

the TV still works you cant reuse an old vacation

[empty quartz]

Plus, its less than half my ram, no big deal

[velvet oar]

plus im not insanely frugal i still buy new things

like clothes or games and recently i even bought an adapter to hook my laptop to my TV

[solid crown]

like new food?

[velvet oar]

im not gonna eat "used" food

[cold skiff]

Well you could use food banks

[velvet oar]

we even have a flatscreen at our house we have two of them but Ive never touched them since i kept my working TV

the living room and garage have one

[cold skiff]

As someone that works in an industry supplying food items to retailers. A lot is “old” by date but perfectly fine

[velvet oar]

yes i am well aware of that

anyways i just wanted to record a movie from netflix so i had a copy since they wont let you record things on the computer as it blocks it

but a VHS tape just ignores copy lock on about everything

[cold skiff]

You seem to be aware of a lot and ignorant to change or progress. Like somehow you are defeated. In life you have to adapt. I think you have a lot of lessons to learn on progression - however never forget that part of frugality.

[cold skiff]

Capture card. Screen capture. It’s the digital alternative.

The quality is also miles better

I have fond memories of VHS. Mainly being around 5 years old and watching the Labrynth and Care Bears from a tape

[solid crown]

is vhs even a good storage medium

[cold skiff]

Well you couldn’t put a tape on your speaker

Just wiped it back in the day

[solid crown]

idk what that even means lol

[cold skiff]

Basically magnetism cleared the data from the tape

[solid crown]

ahhhh gotcha

[cold skiff]

Didn’t even need to be a strong magnet. So many times people put tapes on top of their huge speakers and fucked a tape

Back when speakers were massive and literally the size of a small TV now a days

My father in law still has a really old working hi fi system from those days

[solid crown]

hell speakers are still huge its just most use their tv speakers or soundbar

[cold skiff]

Great quality you don’t get that for the price anymore. Pay way more now a days for that

The missus has claimed it on his death. Fk knows where we would put it all or even connect it to the TV

Would probably end up being adapted for a PC

[vapid sentinel]

Should I go for a decent spec 32 inch monitor or an ultrawide

Probably looking at curved

[velvet oar]

I grew up both decently poor but coming from a rich generation however we were in a rather rural isolated area so I never really had to adapt to anything or change anything even though by the time i was born most things we had well considered a good bit obsolete and with us being unable to replace broken things i have a mindset of use everything till it dies drilled into me, we moved to a large city (las vegas) and while the rest of my family i live with has adapted and modernized I really just havent since everything i have is still outliving everything else and its also tech im very very used to it

[velvet oar]

i mean its pretty good you get 90 minutes of video so often you can fit like a movie or a few episodes of something or whatever else you wanted on it comfortably

[velvet oar]

them big old magnets

[upper agate]

A motherboard will still power on (not post of course) without a cpu installed right?

[velvet oar]

though if you record VHS i reccomend use Seperate video and not AV or coax if you cant since both have much worse picture quality

since progressive video just is better than interlaced

[twin grove]

depends but I love my 32" 16x9 and thats what I prefer, I like the black bars on top and bottom not on the sides

[vapid sentinel]

Oh ew I don’t want black bars anywhere

[cold skiff]

It does not POST. You can bios update on a motherboard without a CPU. However part of POST is checking there is a CPU to actually POST

[velvet oar]

anyways thanks for the help yall

[twin grove]

well if the aspect ratio doesn't match you will have black bars somewhere but top and bottom tend to be less noticavle to me than on the sides

[alpine blaze]

non oled curved monitors are bad

[velvet oar]

see yall

[upper agate]

right but it still will power to show a red debug cpu led right?

[cold skiff]

Well yeah

[twin grove]

I got a 32" non oled thats fine its a mild curve though its still better than a flat pannel at this size

[cold skiff]

Just as long as your 24pin is connected you’ll have some power for that

[vapid sentinel]

I think I’ll have to save for a curved oled then

[vapid ibex]

What's YouTube doing, 170k likes? What the hell is happening when are they gonna fix this

Instead they add more ads in the videos

[twin grove]

I just stopped watching youtube when they started adding multiple unskippable adds before a video

[upper agate]

Ok so i had a pc that wont power on at all that i built for my room mate. So i thought it was the power supply tried another power supply and it powered on but got a red cpu light then that one went to completely not powering on. Then tried the power supply on a back up motherboard and it wouldnt fire as well and i know that motherboard works. Strange i had 2 powersupplies die in such a short amount of time. Lesson learned dont buy cheap thermaltake smart 500w power supplies

[solid crown]

at least its not a gooner ad or straight up scam

[vapid ibex]

It is kind of a scam

[solid crown]

ig but its not "use our ai for 400x gains in crypto guaranteed"

[twin grove]

I have never bought anything other than evga psus

[twin grove]

are they really getting that bad

[upper agate]

I have a 850 w MSI MPG in my personal rig. been a great power supply so far

[twin grove]

I legit would trust a used evga psu before I would tust a thermaltake smart psu

[solid crown]

yea pretty much

[twin grove]

I currently have a 1200w evga that I bought off marketplace

[vapid ibex]

Ya but this is just a blatant lie it's like kind of the same just for a different thing, and the likes like how did they get all those likes

[solid crown]

yeah but is it just an app that scans for ghosts?

probably costs $5?

instead of scamming grandpa out of his retirement savings

rather a few printing unlimited like we have today.

that seems kind of b.s.

no?

[solid crown]

this seems like universal basic income but shittier

[unique badge]

it is in a sense a ubi, i call it welfare.

when AI and automation takes most of the jobs

people will need something to trade for food and other goods and services

[solid crown]

youd seem like an andrew yang fan

[unique badge]

my farm used to be a 100 man operation, due to tech it is now a 2 man job.

He is alright

Burnt think about this

driving is the most common job

when self driving cars become the norm, where will all of these people work?

[solid crown]

my point of view is that increases in productivity will just make everyone work harder

theyll just pay people cents per hour and require 100h weeks to survive

[unique badge]

To the guy that put the commie sign up there, I dont think everyone should have the same. you can work and earn more, i am all for capitalism not communism.

just when supply is minted it goes to all at a fixed rate, rather a few in unlimited amounts.

you are still free to contribute to humanity and earn more after for your hard work.

[twin grove]

you litteraly said to all people at the same rate but ok

[unique badge]

yes when currency is MINTED

you can still have more than others by working.

or selling goods and services.

[twin grove]

well you can't have more of a coin than what was mined

if you do then you are goign to crash the coin

[solid crown]

like at my fedex job, they used to have to check the boxes manually to see if it went in the truck, then they automated it so instead of a pretty easy job getting paid a lot, its effectively physically impossible to keep up while benefits and pay are the lowest they ever been

[unique badge]

yes you can, you earn it from others.

no my coin will never crash, 1 peach or 1 apple or 1 pear will always = 1 of my coin.

[solid crown]

who decides that

[unique badge]

I, the seller of the fruit from my farm.

[solid crown]

until someone decides to take a city hostage and sell vegetables for 300 coins each

[twin grove]

got it so it is up to 1 person to decide the value of it then it is litteraly worthless

[unique badge]

well you can always come to my farm and get 1 egg or 1 peach for 1 coin.

[solid crown]

mf gonna feed 9 billion people fr

[unique badge]

and here is the cool part.

[twin grove]

ok but what if you have a bad harvest

[unique badge]

you get the coins FREE.

[solid crown]

instead of satoshi jr you should call yourself the 2nd coming of jesus

[unique badge]

haha

[twin grove]

or anything happens if you don't have food that harvest then the coins suddenly don't have value

[solid crown]

whos paying for the hardware the coins run on

[unique badge]

well proof of stake can run on 1 computer.

and we all have the same stake of 1.

[solid crown]

so everyone needs to buy a computer

[unique badge]

no

i guess to do the voting part, you would need a phone.

but there is public computers.

[solid crown]

why not just pay some devs a million dollars to develop this for you instead of posting it randomlly

[unique badge]

like at lans and librarys that are free.

it is being developed.

almost done

just working on the court part

and the education/certs part

[solid crown]

get let me get some insider coins so I can sell on launch and rugpull everyone

[unique badge]

nope, we all mint at same rate.

there is no insider coins, no rug to pull.

[solid crown]

so you have the names of everyone on planet earth to allocate their coins?

[unique badge]

got their heartbeats, which can be burnt and turned into a unique hex code, yes.

if they WILLINGLY, sign up.

[solid crown]

heartbeats are not THAT unique though

[unique badge]

yes they are, each heartbeat is like a IRIS or fingerprint.

[solid crown]

maybe over a lifetime but how would you track that

[unique badge]

the software does.

[twin grove]

no because a hearbeat changes over time everyoens hear rate is differnet but its always changing

[solid crown]

you need hardware though

[unique badge]

yes proof of stake can run on 1 computer

[twin grove]

its unique but not identifiable

all coins can technically run on 1 computer

[solid crown]

who is gonna pay for the health tracks for everyone to wear and the storage servers to back it up on

[unique badge]

I am.

and others who host the network, will be rewarded

some network fee's to do so.

[solid crown]

this has to an AI someone set loose on the discord

[unique badge]

No I am a real person.

[solid crown]

yeah thats what an AI would say fr fr

[unique badge]

well, I might be a AI, I do not think to think, just as I did not learn to make my heartbeat nor learn how to breath.

Any ideas how to lower temperatures on whole pc? Everything is running at like 80C when gaming and it heats my room insanely

[solid crown]

that sounds fine

get a window ac

[twin grove]

more than a 1% margine of error is ussless for regognition for wallets and this is 95% meaning 1 out of every 20 times it will get the wrong person. ussless for banking identification fingerprints are 99.6 so 1 out of every 259 which is better but not good enough which is why it isn't really used

[unique badge]

That is because that is old tech

the new tech can detect you through walls, that was from 2019.

[twin grove]

best case cenario mit says 98% in the future for cardio signature still 1/50 are incorrect so still not good enough

[unique badge]

and has 100% accuracy

[twin grove]

no

nothing is 100% accurate

[twin grove]

undervolting or lower power components is all you can really do even if you do better cooling for the pc it will eat the room the same

[unique badge]

nope it heartlocks you aka geofences you.

the evil ones already have everyone heartlocked

my system is for WILLING participants theirs is not.

[solid crown]

so why do we need tech to measure heartrate through walls

[delicate zodiac]

I was thinking about undervolting cpu but it doesnt seem that easy like undervolting amd gpu with adrenaline

[unique badge]

@solid crown we don't, that is just what the goverment has.

[twin grove]

also every article on it are litteraly copy past articles there is a good chance it isn't even real also no it can't work through walls it uses infered lazer which is blocked by even glass

[twin grove]

msi afterburner for gpu stuffs it jsut works best in my experience

[solid crown]

nobody showed up in the past 10 minutes you posted that lmao

we should all be minting the supply not just a few! they print unlimited $ and steal your limited time, goods and services, you are $laves.

The soy just makes it taste bad

Always has a weird aftertaste

[vital gyro]

Modded a spare Molex PSU cable to have SATA on it.

[ivory sorrel]

That sounds scarier than it probably is

[vital gyro]

I basically cut the SATA end from a PSU that I only use for testing stuff (EVGA 500 BR), and soldered the wires from the original Molex cable to the wires on the SATA power cable.

Gaming laptops usually have bigger battery then normal laptops.

Or will it block anything

[river harbor]

is it ok if I use my psu to warm my hands

will it bite me

[rigid ether]

U want to touch something thats 50 degrees C?

[river harbor]

its warm

but like cool warm

[rigid ether]

It can get hotter depending on what gpu and cpu u have

[river harbor]

its idling rn

prob like 30 or 40c

will it bite me is the question

[rigid ether]

It can give u an electric shock

[river harbor]

[untold lance]

does anyone know of any good motherboards on amazon for like 60 to 70usd. preferably with wifi

[river harbor]

probably none 😭😭

what gen

[untold lance]

am4

micro atx

ryzen cpu

[twin grove]

at the $60-$70 I would probably go used

[untold lance]

https://a.co/d/2iT6AMO this is what i was planning on getting

idk if its decent or not tho

[rigid ether]

Ok I've made my decision, going for a MSI Mag 321cup for 764 usd new

[twin grove]

asrock just used to be asus's budget brand they are pretty solid

[untold lance]

as long as its like decent yk

[twin grove]

if you do want wifi/blutooth I would get a pcie card specifically like an intel be200 chipset card. mine has been solid since I got it a couple weeks after they came out

[true stirrup]

Check if there is anything with some VRM heatsinks

[untold lance]

sorry idk much about pcs could you explain this

[untold lance]

yeah this too

[untold lance]

the vrms dont have heatsinks it says

[twin grove]

there is 2 ways to add blutooth to a mobo that doesnt have it usb which isn't great and pcie it uses the same type of plug as the gpu just one of the extra ones

[untold lance]

gotcha could you send one that would work with this mobo?

[twin grove]

what cpu you going with that btw that mobo would be good for a ryzen 3 or 5 but nothing more than that

[untold lance]

ryzen 5 5600

[untold lance]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/y8Y4Qd

[twin grove]

this should work mostly fine then the 5600 is only a 65w cpu

[untold lance]

so with the motherboard im getting though i wont be able to use bluetooth without a pcie chip though?

[river harbor]

you can use your phone too

but that's a hassle

saves you in emergencies though

[twin grove]

yeah they are also like $40 so like you might get a $40 more expensive mobo that has it

[river harbor]

are they not like 10 dollars

[untold lance]

im still able to use my ethernet with that mobo though right?

[twin grove]

the cheapo usb ones but they always die on me after less than a year

I recomend going with the pcie ones

[swift moss]

bruh

[twin grove]

yeah

[untold lance]

alright fire

tysm for the help

[river harbor]

if u have android you can use your phone as a wifi adapter

works reasonably well

[untold lance]

gotcha gotcha

[twin grove]

if you can budget it though this one has a decent wifi blurooth chipset for the price and has better I/O and power delivery https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-TUF-A520M-PLUS-Motherboard-DisplayPort/dp/B0997N7P12/ref=sr_1_7?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.99gef9vWn2upIQsSvchuqFyvmVbnRbHbfcgn6E9DIVHycfJKoW2gr5Evdalw_wrsMAkH3h1a19n-m2Ryw960nHez2m1EtH0BC8QzgnWoRxiEZ8wye6jfkBi1DGFPwAd9uoKWxRaA06z0TiUsFIL9XlLMb6E2k6Aa51vUABWcp2t04-Wmos6hZyg9qDNTXBEfUCJZpVMmzWNb2uwYRuPdzOVJ4I-UKmgr05wUmnI3FKU.WRDFq3SDN_wxylUvq5sYTaxYNqOcsv8onhHEQEiaCCY&dib_tag=se&keywords=b550%2Bmatx%2Bmobo%2Bwifi%2Bbluetooth&qid=1751873096&sr=8-7&th=1

[wispy charm]

Is it dumb to buy from guys who have multiple PC listings on marketplace? (i assume they just buy parts for cheap, build and sell a profit)

[untold lance]

yeah this is nice

honestly thanks so much for all your help 🦅

[twin grove]

you are welcome I am always happy to help

[true stirrup]

Yeah they are probably just flipping PCs

[wispy charm]

almost every listing in my area is like that

[twin grove]

sometimes they are jsut flipping them it could also be IT guys at a business selling the old pcs and those can be a really good deal

like if its a bunch of listings for office pcs its probably some IT guy getting rid of the old stuff I did that a couple times

[wispy charm]

they all just look like unemployed 21 year olds to me

and they are all always rgbed up

[twin grove]

oh yeah just flipping then

Asus prime series mobo
Price is firm

Not looking for trades

[twin grove]

thats not bad 4070 super and 12700k is going to be solid for that price its less than the cost of parts at this point

[dapper dragon]

Good for the price

Mobo specs woulda been nice

[twin grove]

asus prime and 12700k so most likely chipset is z790

or z690

but they are like litteraly almost compleatly identical

z690 just seems to not support 14t gen while z790 does

[true stirrup]

It does support it but you will probably need a bios update

[twin grove]

ah it wasn't on the website for that mobo

[true stirrup]

All LGA1700 motherboards support all 3 LGA1700 gens

But most need a bios update

[twin grove]

ah okie

I don't follow intel too close

ive been amd on cpus since before ryzen

mostly out of habbit at first but now its because they are the best for gaming

[true stirrup]

It's the same as on AMD
A motherboard with a specific socket supports all the CPUs that use that socket ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[twin grove]

I say habbit I worked in the IT room all the time thorugh HS and they have me old laptops and they where on amd so thats what I got

[twin grove]

first gen am4 mobos don't support ryzen 5000 or some don't

they don't have enough room on the bios chip to support all of them

[true stirrup]

Looks like they should with a bios update

[glacial laurel]

Hey guys

VGA MANLI 1070TI 8GB SUPER CLEAN

Would you buy these off a Facebook listing

[twin grove]

some do not all got the beta bios and a320s still can't handle 3000 series apus

[true stirrup]

I guess it depends on the mobo yeah
But it's definitely in the spec sheet for the chipset

[twin grove]

yeah from what I can tell most mobos actually didn't though asrock seems to be the only one that actually did it

[hearty hull]

final build before going to microcenter in about 1 or two days!! Give me opinons on if there are any better cpu/gpu combos and if you think I should spend some extra money for a new case or if my preexisiting one will be fine!!!

[ebon marlin]

I'd opt for a cheaper SSD as ur paying extra 35 dollars for nothing

[daring wadi]

I'm coming from a 5800x

[ebon marlin]

It works with everything

[true stirrup]

Yes if you have the right mounting bracket

[livid fern]

Am4= am5 mounting

[turbid tendon]

I’m sad I’m loosing driver support soon

[twin grove]

I would say case looks good too btw microcenter does have a bundle with the 9800x3d fir about $180 more it also has the x870 mobo and better ram

[turbid tendon]

What should I upgrade to

[livid fern]

Better options

[ebon marlin]

Losing driver support isn't that big of a deal if ur current gpu still runs ur games well you could still keep it

[twin grove]

I dunno about montech I had some bad experiences with them before

[ebon marlin]

But if u do want to upgrade you need to specify ur budget

Montech is good

[turbid tendon]

It’s the legendary beast

[ebon marlin]

Legendary poop

If ur 1080 Ti still runs games well without problems I'd just keep it until you have to upgrade

[turbid tendon]

Ok I need to do a full system upgrade tho I use a 8700k

I will later down the road what should I upgrade first tho

[ebon marlin]

Evaluate ur upgrade options when you are able to do the upgrades

And have a budget planned out for the budgets

[turbid tendon]

1000

USD

[ebon marlin]

Is that for what more specifically

[last mural]

Yo Wsg guys I’m tryna find a like 45 degree pcie riser cable like I can’t find it anywhere and how would it even work cuz the slots n Shi

[ebon marlin]

[ebon marlin]

Use ur keyboard to write "45 degree pcie riser"

Pal is also forcing that blaccent

Lowkey cringe

[last mural]

The Yap is crazy

[ebon marlin]

Asiahorse generally has good pcie riser products

[last mural]

Plus u don’t think I’ve already searched thst up ??

[twin grove]

I mean for $1000 I would first get better gpu if you have a 1080 I would grab something like a 9070 or 9070xt thats going to be most of your budget but then you could get am4 cpu and mobo used try to get x3d if you can but anything ryzen 5000 series should be better than the 8700k anyways and maybe ssd depending on what you have as storage now

[ebon marlin]

Check ur spelling

Most simplest thing ever

Can't be that hard to write "45 degree pcie riser"

[twin grove]

nvme I wouldn't worry too much about it

unlesss you wanted like some bulk storage then I would set aside $100 for like a 4TB wdblack hdd or something I still am a firm beleiver in hdd bulk game storage

I just move what I am currently playing to an ssd

[hearty hull]

im seeing alot of videos suggesting that the 7800x3d is the better match for the 9070xt given its lower price point with high performace. Will that 180+ upgrade to the 9800x3d really make that much of a difference?

[hearty hull]

i do believe I have an ssd installed that I will reuse in my new build but ill keep that in mind, thx!!

[hearty hull]

I was talking to someone saying the powersupply selected was a great choice with competitive pricing and offering more than enough room for any other hefty things

[twin grove]

yes and no most of that $180 comes from the better mobo and ram which is nice to have sometimes either way it doesn't really matter because I figure zen 7 will be on am6 most likely with what leaks are showing but zen6 is going to have 50% higher core counts so if upgrades to zen6 are planned better mobo might be recomended for better cpu power delivery

zen6 should have 12 core ccds insted of 8

[swift moss]

my mouth is still hanging open....

[twin grove]

and zen 7 should have 16 core ccds but might also need new socket

[twin grove]

oh yeah those are basically snake oil

[cold skiff]

We haven’t really seen much advancement to warrant a new socket type yet from AMD.

[twin grove]

also fun fact snake oil was a real thing that did help arthritis pain it is you needed oil from a snake that is only native to china. Chinese immigrants came to the us shared snake oil and American snake oil salesmen didn't use the right snakes so it didn't have the actual pain relief the Chinese snake oil did

[cold skiff]

Wouldn’t be surprised if they keep AM5 longer than initially expected

The cost of a new process node is also a limiting factor

[twin grove]

no not yet but with the doubling of the core counts as well probably one of the biggest arcitecture changes since x3d was introduced I would highly doubt it will be on am5. they are compleatly changing how the 3d cashe will work as well as it should also have a BIG.little arctitecture like arm and the newer intel cpus

[empty moon]

My pc is like this bro it randomly asks me to shut down Everytime

[twin grove]

amd is already going to be skipping a few on the gpu side I think

[twin grove]

is it managed by an orginization or something or is something shorting out power pins?

[cold skiff]

#1027757333117415424

[empty moon]

Bro i genuinely don't know its just like that

But its working yesterday fine only this day its like that

[twin grove]

weird

[solid crown]

gotta filter the power of all the fluoride bro

[swift moss]

the quantum emi radio waves

[solid crown]

exactly

cant put a price on health

[cold skiff]

Tbh it’s a shame AMD didn’t use GDDR7. Could have a 9070XT* closer to the performance of a 5080 if that were the case

[twin grove]

also something funny I did check the background radiowaves in my room to see if thats why I was having issues with my vive trackers and my room must bouce them weird because there is one spot in my room that consitently gets around 1000X higher than anywhere else eben right by my pc

[cold skiff]

I’d say probably in between 70ti and 80 with the faster RAM given the processing power of the GPU

[twin grove]

I am a believer in the 9090 coming out with gddr7. it should be the same amount of cores but on tsmc n2x early tests on it showed an insane clock speed increase

[rigid fjord]

not really, a good oc on it already does that

[twin grove]

n2x or n2p I should say

[proper gull]

Snake oil salesman

[cold skiff]

A good OC will get it closer but yeah. Missed potential from AMD for sure. Played it safe and it’s the one time they shouldn’t have

[twin grove]

SNAKE OIL WAS REAL MEDICIN its just Americans used the wrong snakes

[proper gull]

...

[twin grove]

lol anyways

there was a linux powered car stereo in the 90's thats wild

[cold skiff]

Why’s that wild? British Airways still use a closed system Windows 3.1 PC for critical systems on planes.

That’s way more wild.

[little quail]

Even wilder is the fact that we managed to teach Sand how to think in the first place

[swift moss]

@rigid fjord What I'd give to be in the UK

This is with BFI

I have the 35mm copy, but it would be a blessing to see this manually rolled through a projector

[lavish canopy]

Rate this deal

[swift moss]

@peak knot this is the 1014d, is this similar to the the digital 1014d?

[abstract wigeon]

not great not terrible. i would change the psu

[lavish canopy]

I know it has an Aorus motherboard, and a fractal design case from the photos and airflow is good tho it’s just storage and ram speeds that are unknown

You do know how much 250 euros are in like pounds or dollars right

[sinful cobalt]

their goal was to fight the 4080/5070ti

not the 5080 at all

also 2gb GDDR7 is kinda fuckass

[cold skiff]

Like £200

[sinful cobalt]

btw if they used GDDR7 they would basically be losing money at $600 lol

[cold skiff]

Over performance would have been nice considering what they’ve done. I don’t think AMD expected Blackwell to not kick on as much.. same as all of us

[sinful cobalt]

not that in the US their prices are good now

[cold skiff]

Losing money? You’re joking, right?

[sinful cobalt]

everybody knows the 9070XT was not meant to be a $600 MSRP card

GDDR7 is more expensive than 6

[cold skiff]

The margin on that card is ATLEAST 40% for AMD

They wouldn’t have lost money, they just would not have made as much money

You probably believe that Nvidia can’t possible afford to put more VRAM in cards without slapping an extra $500 on it

[sinful cobalt]

If thats the case the 9070XT in the US is still at fuckass prices lmao

everybody knew damn well AMD wanted to price at $700

[cold skiff]

Yup.

[lethal bay]

AMD didn’t try to compete in the top end this go around because they wanted market share. They’ve done the same thing in the past with Polaris and it worked.

[lavish canopy]

Yeah basically, isn’t a 1660 super and Ryzen 5 3600 pc with a 750w Corsair psu (assuming cx750) with a fractal design case and an Aorus motherboard (unknown ram speed and storage isn’t listed but ram is dual channel) for £200 ish pounds a steal?

[peak knot]

It’s basically the 1013D I recommended but in a normal form factor and no touchscreen

Also no battery

[cold skiff]

3gb gddr7 module is around $10. 8gb gddr6 costs $25. 16gb gddr6= $50 and 18gb gddr7 = $60.

The VRAM cost isn’t the issue

[sinful cobalt]

Just that this time the table still got flipped on them

[cold skiff]

Don’t let manufacturers bullshit you on raw vram module cost

[sinful cobalt]

bus width is apparently none existent ig

[verbal prawn]

I find it wild that a 600 dollar GPU is not high-end anymore

Hell more then 600 cuz they can't be found at MSRP

[cold skiff]

For $10 more you get the latest memory technology and 2gb more. It’s a con.

AMD have done well with the current gen for midrange but they could have done better

[sinful cobalt]

it was simply not designed with the 9000 series plans

[rigid fjord]

so rdna4 is the new polaris?

[sinful cobalt]

Ur talking about costs now, and not in the past where its just fresh out of the oven

[cold skiff]

GDDR6 is about as fresh out of the oven as 7 month old stale bread

[lavish canopy]

?

[serene python]

What's the general advice for trying to speed up a somewhat old laptop? It has an 8th gen U series i7 and I think 8gb of ram

[cold skiff]

Maximum AMD would pay for GDDR7 fresh would be around $70-80 for 18gb. Thats not cost breaking. What they did with RDNA4 was squeeze the cost and in giving you GDDR6, it’s as bad as saying 8GB VRAM is enough.

[swift moss]

I like this form factor ngl

[cold skiff]

RDNA4 is all about margin.

[swift moss]

Looks cooler on the bench

[sinful cobalt]

also, nvidia is still on 5nm whereas RDNA4 is 4nm, whatever you are saying does not lineup with their margin goals.

[rigid fjord]

pretty much, for £100-150 more you could get a 3600 + 6600xt/3060ti build on ebay tbh

[verbal prawn]

Everything everywhere always is about margin

[cold skiff]

You forget that AMD costs come down drastically due to future orders already placed for console APUs. They actually have the upper hand over Nvidia when it comes to using a better process node financially.

[rigid fjord]

for 1080p, 8gb vram is enough

[sinful cobalt]

amd is a company and not ur local charity, ur argument is now down the drain

[cold skiff]

When the fk did I call them a charity?

[sinful cobalt]

<@&750150305383186585>

[cold skiff]

They used old tech to keep “costs low” but they’ll be making a bigger margin at their target market than Nvidia for the same tier. People talking about AMD like they’ve saved gaming don’t quite see the underlying bigger picture. I like and use AMD products first, I have an AMD GPU and CPU. However don’t be fooled that the slightly lower cost to Nvidia isn’t making them more money per unit at the same tier as Nvidia in the GPU market. You see 5070s and even 5070ti’s under MSRP now and AMD cards could easily do the same. It’s all about screwing the consumer for profit. As someone said, it’s wild a $600 GPU is mid tier now.

[sinful cobalt]

tldr gddr7 implementation also needs a new vbios

also no amd aint saving shit

[next hill]

Another gg for my laptop. Anyone know if "SlimQ" charger brand any good?

[rigid fjord]

there's also product quantity, which tbf amd has a larger amout for release in comparison

[lavish canopy]

Ok thanks for an actual answer

[next hill]

Anyone know "SlimQ" chargers, any good?

[pine geyser]

why when i alt tab the app i alt tab to somehow clips into itself

[elder quarry]

40-50$ 1660S, R5 50$ (estimated), psu 20-60$, fractal 10-25$, mobo 60

Not steal, you can get personalisation and better deals.
Sometimes people sell cases and PSUs together or other combos, look out for these

[lavish canopy]

1660s 50 dollars? Hell nah

[elder quarry]

I’ve found some for 40

[lavish canopy]

Goes for over 110 in my country

average price is around 100 but that’s if you’re kinda lucky

[elder quarry]

Then you should’ve specified country/market and currency

[lavish canopy]

Portugal and euros I’ve barely found any 1660 supers for under 100

[lapis talon]

managed to boot this thing back up to check if only one of the tubes were hot but I honestly cant tell

both of the tubes feel warm

dying pump ig?

[lavish canopy]

Average price around 100

Average price for r5 3600 is like 50

That’s already 150 of the 250 leaving 100 for everything else

And if I bargain it down to 225 or maybe even 200 if I get extremely lucky then that would be even more insane

[random gyro]

2TB phones when 😭

[lavish canopy]

Also case seems to be a focus g, that’s not 10-25

[next hill]

How much of a risk would be OEM charger from aliexpress

[charred kiln]

Oh boy it's alive

[cold skiff]

Having less SKUs helps massively for that. Nvidia tbfh are absolutely crazy offering a 5050/5060/5060ti/5070/5070ti/5080/5090 and then adding Super variants for 70/70ti/80. literally so cost ineffective and diluted I cannot understand it.

[lavish canopy]

Total value is around €295 – €365 I’m getting it €45–€115 cheaper, I feel like you’re just making everything cheaper because those prices are immaculate if that’s actually real for US prices or anywhere else in the world whoever lives there are very lucky

[cold skiff]

I actually expect to see a 5080ti super at some point tbfh

[lavish canopy]

Yeah but why tho

Why 5080 and not 5070 like 4070 ti super

[lethal bay]

It’s clearly not cost ineffective or they wouldn’t do it lol

[elder quarry]

Well Sweden and I’ve seen the US market be even better sometimes, usually not far away

[lavish canopy]

Not Sweden

Other countries use euros yk

Portugal

[cold skiff]

Because 5060ti and 5070ti have a super lined up. There is no 5080ti SKU currently

[cold skiff]

From a consumer standpoint point. It is more choice yes, it’s also more confusion.

And in business more products = more cost. Fk knows how Thermalright manage

[elder quarry]

TR naming scheme of fans sucks

Not only TR but

I’d rather have “Gaming” for the loud, RGB and fast fans, silent for silent and max or something for servers

[rigid fjord]

Having less sku's in nvidia terms means that there was multiple failures and can inflate pricing more so, nvidia went with samsung fabs this time around which only had a 50% production rate

[clear canyon]

Less skus means more rarity so higher prices for nvidia lmao

[cold skiff]

Samsung is memory. TSMC is for fabrication.

On 50 series

IIRC Nvidia haven’t used Samsung since 30series?

[sinful cobalt]

samsung last node was 8nm for 30 series so yes

40 and 50 is 5nm tsmc

The Nintendo Switch runs on the FreeBSD kernel for example

[ebon marlin]

The keyboard itself at stock is poopie you have to mod it with new switches as long as the Keyboard supports hotswapping which it's best keyboard doesn't aka the Keychron K2 not sure if they've made newer revisions to fix that issue

[tulip sparrow]

I have it disabled but it gets installed with chipset drivers so yeah

With the chipset drivers you can't really configure anything outright LOL

You have to use Windows Task Scheduler to disable it

More immersion if you are sitting closer and thus wrapping the monitor around your eyes/face compared to a flat

[rigid ether]

good, I'm like 30 cm from my screen

[tulip sparrow]

Won't work as there are no drivers LOL

[rigid ether]

run ur macbook with windows

or linux

[tulip sparrow]

Nvidia/apple stopped supporting those GPUS well before RTX if I remember right

[pseudo swallow]

Yeah. Linux. Yeah. Spend 14k on a Mac. I mean it could run Minecraft.

[tulip sparrow]

Linux for VM and GPU passthrough so that you could toss each GPU to a different WIndows VM

Only real use for such a setup I would think unless you were planning on doing Cyptomining or something like that

But then again I don't think Cryptomining is even feasible on standard system these days

[torn lava]

ok....

[pseudo swallow]

Or huge AI models

[torn lava]

yh

[tulip sparrow]

Can AI split its load among the GPUS tho?

Or is it limited to a single GPU/RAM setup?

[torn lava]

yh if its X64 based

[clear canyon]

Yes

[pseudo swallow]

Orrr. You use two 5090s of crypto and the other two for AI models

[clear canyon]

Mining for crypto is a waste of time

[pseudo swallow]

I know. Is joke

[tulip sparrow]

I know AI loves its VRAM which is why the AMD Halo Strix is so good with its ability to set 96GB towards VRAM usage

Yeah mining on standard systems for crypto is not feasible anymore and requires asic hardware

[pseudo swallow]

How would a 1.5 tb of RAM Mac pro do with AI?

[tulip sparrow]

Would need to be unified memory and Intel macs don't offer that

[torn lava]

depends...

[tulip sparrow]

And I don't think ARM based macs go that high in ram

[torn lava]

apple is to fussy

[pseudo swallow]

Dang it. I thought we could find a use for those 50k Mac Pros
