[carmine yew]

do not buy it

[magic ivy]

7600 better?

[carmine yew]

hands down

[clear canyon]

Thats the 3060 ti

[carmine yew]

a 3060 TI might be better than a7600, depending

[clear canyon]

It is

7600 is on par with a 4060

[magic ivy]

1080p

[clear canyon]

@magic ivy go b580

[magic ivy]

It's more expensive and the cheapest (280€) is white

[clear canyon]

Its far better

[magic ivy]

Also found out 3060ti is better than 7600

[magic ivy]

Out of budget

[clear canyon]

Trust me, save up for it

[topaz wren]

i doubt these are real cards

[agile stag]

do you guys think x370 or x299 would bring better performance roughly with like 100-150$ of cpu

[agile stag]

where are you shopping wtf

[magic ivy]

I would but I can't

[agile stag]

is that a shopping app template

[magic ivy]

Vinted

[clear canyon]

Ur right, these are cpus

[topaz wren]

i don’t think they’re real

[agile stag]

vinted is insane but i guess i havent tried it

[agile stag]

im assuming theyre as unfit as poshmark

[normal tusk]

whats the problem

[topaz wren]

idk i don’t think these are trust worthy

[normal tusk]

the seller looks suspicious but the item itself looks fine

[topaz wren]

they’re probably defective or have something wrong with them

[normal tusk]

lol

forgot im in tech-chat-1

[topaz wren]

what chat did you think it was

[normal tusk]

thought it was #1391900737998553118

[charred kiln]

I think I am getting the hang of this

[topaz wren]

#unknown

[steel umbra]

price looks fine, maybe even bit high

[steel umbra]

does the site you're buying from have buyer protection?

btw 7700's can be gotten for like 170

[topaz wren]

barely

[steel umbra]

from chinese marketplaces

[steel umbra]

can you get your money back, is the support in case you get scammed fairly decent?

[pine sandal]

Quick question, will an 7 5700x bottleneck an 5070ti at 180fps (where achievable) 1440p

[topaz wren]

i mean the sellers can easily get scammed and the buyers too

[dreamy aspen]

3d wouldn't bottleneck, non 3d would a little bit 🥴

[carmine yew]

depends on the game, but potentially some

[pine sandal]

So should I consider upgrading the cpu before or is it a really small percentage?

[random junco]

tbh i would stick with the non 3d

[carmine yew]

gonna depend on the game

there is no one answer to your question

[pine sandal]

Ehh

Let's say Forza 5

[sinful knoll]

is 1.5gb of vram good in 2025?

[dawn tundra]

????

[carmine yew]

.... what

[agile stag]

yes

[random junco]

@torn lava lock in

[sinful knoll]

i found this gpu

[agile stag]

sometimes random people message you idk

ive had it happen

[dawn tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/beast-boy-beast-boy4-teen-titans-teen-titans-go-teen-titans-beast-boy-gif-25291191

[carmine yew]

jesus, no, that's like 13 years old

[agile stag]

why dont you guys convince people to make bad choices so that they stop asking you for advice

this place is fucked and evil

let people make their bad purchasing decisions,,

[dreamy aspen]

depends how many bucks the 5700x3d costs in your country

[random junco]

if it costs anything more than 25% of non 3d then NO

[carmine yew]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/115283624505?_skw=gtx+1080&epid=20047025625
Here, have 8gb and half the age

[agile stag]

what if they need native analog dvi out

in a 3 fan form factor

[random junco]

adapter

[agile stag]

it doesnt hit the same

[topaz wren]

is 1tb of vram good i n2025

[steel umbra]

uhh. it's bit clunky but it works

[random junco]

insanely good that it doesnt exist!

exists in my dreams i guess

[steel umbra]

1MEGABYTE of vram is better than only 1tb

[topaz wren]

It does exist i got it from temu

[agile stag]

average vinted gpu

or something

[steel umbra]

is it gts450

[topaz wren]

LMAO never shop from temu or vinted

i got sleeping pills from vinted

[random junco]

interesting..

[steel umbra]

oh no

[agile stag]

you bought used sleeping pills?

[random junco]

eternal sleeping

[steel umbra]

please don't buy meds from random marketplaces

[topaz wren]

not used

[topaz wren]

there not allowed in the UK only way to get them is exports

[empty quartz]

Mrrp

[agile stag]

also this is what i mena about this place gr natural selection we cant be stopping people from buying trash gpus

they need to learn

[steel umbra]

explode

[topaz wren]

nah they’re fine

[empty quartz]

@steel umbra ignore how much power my ram is using

[agile stag]

evil but it is the other way around for some stuff so i guess i cant be too mad

grr hate the fda,,

[steel umbra]

no.

[topaz wren]

melatonin isn’t that bad

[steel umbra]

the manufacturer makes whopsie and who'll be responsible?

[topaz wren]

it’s not like i got adderal xd

[steel umbra]

you know people are idiots

[agile stag]

oh its melatonin

[topaz wren]

yes but it’s forbidden in the UK

[agile stag]

thats wild that you guys cant get that i dont know how effective it is but i feel like it does fuck all

i just get given one once a night and i dont complain but i bet 5 wouldnt kill me

[topaz wren]

it’s because it causes long term issues

[topaz wren]

i took like 5 the other night 50mg

[agile stag]

i cause long term issues ill be ok

[agile stag]

ive never looked at the mg

my one gummy allocation every night,,,

[gloomy sleet]

yeah don’t take more then one melatonin

[steel umbra]

50mg??

[topaz wren]

your meant to do like 1-2mg

[agile stag]

huh idk ive never checked

[topaz wren]

it didn’t put me to sleep 😦

[gloomy sleet]

as a former pharmacist don’t

[agile stag]

bodies strong but melatonin is not some shit id abuse it sounds stupid

[steel umbra]

pretty sure even 10mg saturates all of the receptors in brain

50mg is just too much too much

[topaz wren]

why

[agile stag]

thats like taking too much advil

[gloomy sleet]

you can very easily overdose on 50mg doses

especially 5

[agile stag]

id rather fuck up like too much caffeine or other stuff idk

[steel umbra]

i do 1mg and that's plenty for me

usually 0.75mg

[agile stag]

caffeines more fun anyways

melatonin man,,

beats like spider killer or some shit

[topaz wren]

it didn’t help me sleep 😦

[steel umbra]

it does not work like that

[agile stag]

maybe its not the dose thats the issue then

[random junco]

js close ur eyes

[gloomy sleet]

get help bruh

[agile stag]

js cope

[topaz wren]

idk i think taking more than 1 is counter intuitive

[topaz wren]

i don’t need help

[agile stag]

some nights you gotta accept that youll run off 5 hours and enjoy it

[gloomy sleet]

that’s an issue go to a psychiatrist or something

[topaz wren]

not really

[gloomy sleet]

it is

[topaz wren]

it won’t do anything il take 100mg

[agile stag]

ok sure

[gloomy sleet]

you shouldn’t be taking 5 50mg pills of melatonin

[topaz wren]

i need thc prescription

[gloomy sleet]

that’s like unironically a dangerous amount

[topaz wren]

no they’re 10mg each

[gloomy sleet]

oh

[agile stag]

you should report them to the mods or something

[teal sphinx]

ryzen 1700 is that bad huh? i saw it is about the performance of ryzen 3100?

[agile stag]

theyve been yelling about drug abuse for the past while,,

[empty quartz]

I think my workstation is cutting it really close to the limits of my rm850x

[topaz wren]

what

[agile stag]

i know i do too over the years but fuck man melatonin cmon

[topaz wren]

i heard ryzen price to performance is good

[topaz wren]

850w?

what spec you on

[empty quartz]

Yes

[robust trail]

many spec

[tired bear]

single core is kinda bad on 1st gen ryzen

[teal sphinx]

what? that is unrelated to what i said

[agile stag]

ltt office dedicated towards keeping this server alive with crumbs of ragebait,,

[topaz wren]

yeah

[high acorn]

Guys rate my cable management

[robust trail]

@empty quartz pick up a 1Kw. That's my go to now

[topaz wren]

you should make open source nvidia drivers

[south arrow]

Zipties/10

[agile stag]

interaction bait*

[robust trail]

There are drivers that sort of meet that requirement, for linux

[high acorn]

Used to look like this

[topaz wren]

yeah linux support isn’t the best yet i tried open drivers and i couldn’t boot

[teal sphinx]

what do you say, 1700 for 15$ or 3600 for 50$
realistically i am using rx580

[topaz wren]

had to use the proprietary ones 😦

[steel umbra]

again. it does not work like that, you're not going to build stronger pathways overnight from taking doses that exceed 10-20x your receptors can sense in brain

[empty quartz]

2695v4
256gb ddr4 (8x32gb 4rx4)
6 3.25” 7200rpm hdd’s
2 2.5” sata ssd’s
Asus x99-a
And an intel arc b580

[robust trail]

Linux support is fine

[tired bear]

3600

[steel umbra]

at most you will harm yourself from the high doses

[teal sphinx]

how much is 1700 worth nowadays

[topaz wren]

i was thinking about getting a £10 laptop from vinted and putting linux on it

[south arrow]

It does look better though ggs

[tired bear]

4 dabloons

[empty quartz]

@topaz wren

[steel umbra]

1mg of melatonin is where you will get with efficiency, path that dose you may see diminishing returns

[robust trail]

I have been running linux and nvidia for... shit my entire engineering career and rarely had issues

[topaz wren]

i this a server

[teal sphinx]

uhhh i don get it

[topaz wren]

wow

[steel umbra]

4 dabloons = 4 gallons and 4 gallons cost 12-16 dollars

[empty quartz]

No

[robust trail]

Jetkvm for the winning

[tired bear]

no place like 127.0.0.0/8

[topaz wren]

does anyone know if 1650 is worth anything

[robust trail]

there isn't. 🙂

[high acorn]

Yippie guys

[robust trail]

Depends on what you're target use case is. It's fine for 1080p esports last I knew

[steel umbra]

for low power systems without pcie power, there is a demand for them, about 40?

usd

[pine sandal]

So I should upgrade to 5700x3d if I have the money?

[teal sphinx]

you reckon this a good deal? ~38$

[topaz wren]

can i sell it for £800 to some karen

[robust trail]

do you already have a CPU?

[pine sandal]

Of course

[steel umbra]

be worse than the karen a great idea

[steel umbra]

it's ok, not good deal

[teal sphinx]

why is 3600 at 50

[tired bear]

no, dont buy 4000 ryzens, they are apus with disabled graphic core
they have much less cache and pcie connectivity is halfed

[robust trail]

Probably not worth upgrading unless you're running 3000 series/unless you have a serious >30% CPU bottleneck

[teal sphinx]

ohhh that's why

32mb l3 cachce vs 8

[steel umbra]

greed

[dawn tundra]

https://youtu.be/dJ0-rd2CMBI bro is getting tourtured for 43933344475856847 years

[steel umbra]

asks what a chair is 💀

[robust trail]

that's my two cents on it. Upgrading just to upgrade is awesome. If you already have a sizable savings account/investments it would be better to squirrel away that money.

[topaz wren]

can you run a good minecraft server on a raspberry pi

[tired bear]

btw this is new pricing

[teal sphinx]

damn

[dawn tundra]

what car should i buy

[teal sphinx]

that is euro?

[pine sandal]

I do not know how much of a bottleneck on the CPU I will have. That's what im asking

[tired bear]

yes

[topaz wren]

what is good stuff i can do with raspberry pi

[agile stag]

i started using one with 5 recently and its like the trackpad is surrounded in mouse button its beautiful

[agile stag]

i returned mine but im sure theres some other options maybe

[tired bear]

this is even cheaper

[robust trail]

lol that's nuts

[teal sphinx]

WTF\

[agile stag]

do they have ebay

[topaz wren]

run a server

[teal sphinx]

why do i get there 😢

[agile stag]

wouldnt a computer do better

[teal sphinx]

my "ebay" is selling 3600 for 50$

[agile stag]

what is he doing is he stupid

[topaz wren]

run a rat/botnet?

[agile stag]

that sounds not bad i dont htink

[dawn tundra]

waiting for car

[agile stag]

id buy that if i needd a 3600 i guess

[steel umbra]

this is garbago

[robust trail]

He's about to face down a fuckin' tank. But you already knew that right?

[agile stag]

he should move over to the sidewalk

[teal sphinx]

oh it's that cheap cuz no delivery

I am 3d printing a keycap

[agile stag]

ai is pretty impressive yeah,,

oh also did you guys hear about the verdict on the epstein case

[tired bear]

500 keycaps

[agile stag]

there was never a list and nobody ever did anything wrong and he uh ended himself by his own means and thats the end i guess or something

according to the news,,

[charred kiln]

Nah it's just a fun novelty keycap

[robust trail]

I have no idea. The news is depressing. I don't pay much attention to it

[azure topaz]

500 cigarettes

[teal sphinx]

hmm xianyu have 3600 for like 35$

[tired bear]

after it is printed do a lost pla casting in brass of it

[teal sphinx]

honestly buying from xianyu a bit hard, good deal get sniped very fast

hi. Do I buy this and save some money
https://www.amazon.pl/CORSAIR-VENGEANCE-6400MHz-kompatybilna-komputera/dp/B0BXHC74WD

or do I buy patriot viper venom 32gb 6000mhz cl30 for 13,39 euro extra

[agile stag]

i just need to sell laptop and make money or something its easy,,

[azure topaz]

pay the extra 15

my news is that i get to finally use the surface i got from work cause i get to bring home a charger for it

[robust trail]

start salt water tank, buy rare morph sea anenome, feed them, watch them split, sell rare morph clones.

[topaz wren]

flip laptops?

[robust trail]

I sold a colorado sunburst clone for $300 and all I did was feed the one it split from lol

[tired bear]

if only gpus reproduce like that

[south arrow]

If it works it works

[robust trail]

MIG

[dreamy aspen]

if you'd like to, then yeah

an upgrade of am4 is never a bad idea, believe me or not

[azure topaz]

id say no because you can likely buy into am5 for that much money

[hushed tapir]

what is the most stable nvidia drive rn? im on the current and crashing in american truck simulator

[unique bone]

Cooler Master Masterliquid 360L for 81 euro
or
arctic liquid freezed iii pro 360 argb for 105 euro?

[vapid sentinel]

Hahahaaha awkwardd I upgraded to the 5700x3d sticking with am4…

[vapid sentinel]

Just the cooler master imo. But depends on aesthetic

[empty quartz]

Bclk of 109mhz was not successful

Maybe ill try with half the ram

[ashen hearth]

Is 820€ a good price for a MSI 5070 TI?

I'm gonna sell my old GPU for ~300€ so the real price will be around 500€

[dusk cosmos]

Are undercoolers for laptops still useful in 2025

[ashen hearth]

I think that bad heating will never be solved on laptops

[dusk cosmos]

I’m debating purging it. For a stationary setup great. But mobile it’s another thing to carry around plus soon I’m gonna be switching to Mac only also

[south arrow]

Open box 5090 if any are after

Temp overclocking setup

[high elm]

what are you even overclocking

[quaint mesa]

is there a way to benchmark it without actually having the pc?

[high elm]

look up youtube videos

[azure topaz]

something ddr4

[gentle kestrel]

does that board even support resizeable bar

it looks so old

[hot willow]

By chance does anyone know which dies are used for this RAM kit? Thanks

I don't have a DDR5 motherboard on hand yet, otherwise I would have checked myself.

[azure topaz]

what is the full rating

what youve given us is nothing, its 64GB at 6000mhz with some rating

[radiant charm]

Does anyone know if this would run gta6😣💀 im not a tech nerd yet

[fringe prairie]

who knows

[radiant charm]

💔

[fringe prairie]

but expect trash battery life

[radiant charm]

Great. I can’t find anything decent for my budget 😪

[hot willow]

Sorry, I'm a noob, what is a "full rating"?

[quaint mesa]

laptops are terrible

[azure topaz]

1. The full rating is its full xmp so something like: 6000 36-40-40-80 or something similar

[radiant charm]

I need something portable but I’m working on getting pc parts aswell js don’t know which gpu to get theirs so many

[azure topaz]

2. if youre a ram noob it doesnt matter what IC you have because all you need is experience

im not saying if youre a ram noob to not get into ram overclocking but

if you are a noob it kind of doesnt matter what youre overclocking

[radiant charm]

it’s either the 3090 or the 4070

[rigid fjord]

the 3500/3500x is one to never be touched dude, the lack of hyperthreading

[plush wren]

skoda

[azure topaz]

3090, 4070 is just slower and it has less vram

[hot willow]

38-38-38-78. Teamgroup doesn't make their own dies so I think I'll have to do a support inquiry.

[azure topaz]

tg doesnt make their own dies youre right

youre also probably wrong to assume that theyll be able to tell you what IC is on it

[hot willow]

Then how do I find out for myself?

Will I just have to remove the cover?

[azure topaz]

CPU-Z, thaiphoon burner, hwinfo memory tab

the above will at least tell you what brand of dram if not more

basically if its not hynix its not competitive for ddr5

[hot willow]

If only I had a DDR5 motherboard

[azure topaz]

just wait until you do i dont see the point in knowing now

it doesnt save you any time or let you prepare any better lol

[hot willow]

I'm getting ahead of myself. I also bought this:
https://www.amazon.ca/Patriot-2X24GB-Desktop-Memory-Compatible/dp/B0DGZLBB36?th=1
I'll keep one and sell the other. I know the Vipers use the good H24M dies.

[azure topaz]

if you wanted a specific ic you probably shouldnt have bought the cheapest possible 6000mhz 64gb kit thats all im going to say

theres ways to guarantee you end up with a specific ic even if thats not directly listed

[hot willow]

ICs? Integrated circuits?

[azure topaz]

IC=Die=chip

[hot willow]

Since I play a lot of Cities Skylines, RAM capacity is imporant to me, but I won't ignore die quality and timings either. The Vulcans can be tightened to CL30. I am willing to return the 64GB kit if the die is non-Hynix (which I'm told is the only competitive die maker for DDR5).

Meanwhile the Vipers use Hynix H24M.

[azure topaz]

i hate to make you sad but the CL number is probably one of the least important factors when talking about its performance

its only purpose basically is to look pretty/be there for flexing purposes

there are a lot of other timings that have a much much much larger impact on how your ram performs

tcl is basically at the bottom of the list

[hot willow]

I'm switching from a 12400F to a 7800X3D, I was under the impression that AMD's infinity fabric scales with frequencies and TCLs.

Got ahead of myself again.

[azure topaz]

Not really, both brands seem to gain a similar amount from overclocked ram, Intel (lesser cache) more so because less cache=a larger reliance on system memory

but neither of which gain more from just tCL

tCL is like the least important primary even, the other values in the XMP rating do more

[hot willow]

I went from a 10400 -> 12400F and all I know is, RAM frequency does not matter a whole lot on Intel.

As for why, beats me.

[azure topaz]

i kinda explained the opposite of that right above

"ram frequency doesnt matter on intel" is just popular misinfo that people like to spout online because the early days of ryzen benefitted a whole hell of a lot more than anything now

even on a 10400, you can see insane gains from overclocking memory, its just that it would be weird to run into a system that could overclock memory on a 10400 (Z board required,idr if b560 unlocked ram oc for 10th)

[plush wren]

hi team

[plush wren]

props to you that game pisses me the fuck off

[gentle kestrel]

the x3d chips are kinda the opposite where you won't see as big as uplifts on ram oc

since the cache minimises ram access

[frigid blade]

Wow, I just got my hands on an oooooold gaming laptop

It has a GTX 965M GPU

[hot willow]

Hold that thought; I'll come back to this

[hot willow]

Yes, my understanding is FCLK used to sync with RAM speeds, whereas before Alder Lake, Intel CPUs had a unified monolithic cache. But, apparently Alder Lake and Zen 4 turned the common wisdom on its head

[hot willow]

I think NVidia is still selling those for $399.

I don't follow hardware news very closely so you'll have to forgive me being misinformed.

[rigid fjord]

b560 did when it came to 10th gen

[frigid blade]

Its reaching EoL for driver support

Its been EoL for production for a long time

[stone violet]

Curious where yall get tech news?

[hot willow]

I was making a joke about the current GPU market, which looks like it fell flat.

[frigid blade]

randos on the internet

[frigid blade]

my bad, I take things seriously sometimes

[plush wren]

Knowledge spawns in my Head

[hot willow]

High Yield on YT, Chips and Cheese. But that's more for low-level CPU/GPU design. For higher-level stuff, I could also use some recommendations

[hot willow]

Not your fault, it's hard to convey humour via text

[frigid blade]

this thing is heavy

it weighs almost 10 pounds

[hot willow]

Coming back to this. Are you talking about Cities 1 or 2?

[frigid blade]

it has te i7-6700HQ and GTX 965M

4 cores 8 threads 3.5 boost 2.6 base

45W TDP

12GB ram???

about to wipe it clean, its got a decade worth of stuff installed and taking up resources

[hot willow]

Action Retro featured an MSI GT83VR Titan last week. It weighs 13 pounds

Im gonna weigh this thing for real, it doesnt feel like 10lbs i went off of the website specs

it feels like 25, or im just weak af

[peak knot]

I’m a little aggravated I decided to bring out some of my dead GPUs I haven’t touched in years and see if I can repair them now that I have way better equipment, I spent the last couple hours testing and working on this GTX 980 matrix and actually was able to replace some parts and remove a short and get the card posted, just to find out it has dead vram….

[lapis furnace]

Guys this is weird. After installing my new SSD i fastened all the screws correctly but this heat sink is acting kinda weird. See video.

Any fix for this?

[frigid blade]

weird how

oh, is that supposed to "clip"?

[rigid ether]

Chatgpt

[frigid blade]

perplexity actually has a really good summary feature

[lapis furnace]

Yeah. It was that way when I first removed my old SSD

[rigid ether]

ye

[frigid blade]

Have you tried it again with the old one to see if its the new one causing it?

[lapis furnace]

Yep .. it's not becayse of the SSD both are the same configuration (NVMe M2 2280)

[frigid blade]

Ok, so it doesnt clip anymore at all no matter the ssd

[lapis furnace]

Mhm

[rigid fjord]

on the ssd's. how many nand chips is being shown

[frigid blade]

it looks like both sides have a tiny peice of metal thats supposed to hold onto the bottom part, maybe they got loose?

[lapis furnace]

Nothing like that

[rigid fjord]

inb4 one ssd has like 1 nand chip for storage and the new one has 2+ nand chips

[frigid blade]

that messes with clearance?

[lapis furnace]

How to check that?

[frigid blade]

give us both models

can check

[peak knot]

Inb4 the clips just got bent enough to no longer clip on tightly

[frigid blade]

Thats what I think

Theres 2 metal clips on the top part that look like theyre loose

[lapis furnace]

This is my old SSD

New is WD Blue SN580

[frigid blade]

Thats what I think it is

[rigid fjord]

it's possible dude

[peak knot]

Looks like it’s not a cooler but rather just an emi shield, might not even need it

[lapis furnace]

Oh but that metal piece was there inbuilt in laptop screwed on top of the SSD so i assume it's a heat sink?

[rigid fjord]

is this single sided?

[lapis furnace]

Yeah probably

[frigid blade]

unless theres some kind of heat spreader pad on the bottom part of the top metal peice I doubt it would help much with temps, so maybe not heatsink

[random gyro]

Black Desert is free on Steam, don't know if anyone cares though

[frigid blade]

waiting for white desert

[lapis furnace]

There is a rubber thingy pasted below the surface of the metal thingy

[frigid blade]

ah, so then it is a heatsink

[lapis furnace]

So what can I do to fix this?

[frigid blade]

i mean, you can try bending it very tiny amount inward (towards the ssd)

and then testing

[lapis furnace]

Alright

[random gyro]

is it better to have a gpu upraised than sagged

[rigid fjord]

it's been free to get, several times over tbh

[frigid blade]

dunno I have a sag bracket

alright installing windows 11 iot enterprise ltsc on the old ass laptop

[rigid fjord]

it's better on the pcie socket

[frigid blade]

lol noooo

the window is fucked, the resolution is so low that the setup window goes off the screen

i have to guess with the tab key and enter

[steady pulsar]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XGz83w ts the build coming in cpu and gpu good for eachother?

[fringe prairie]

sure

psu is overpriced tho

[steady pulsar]

i got it for 65

[hexed tapir]

Not really

[hot willow]

Removing the heatsink to check the dies would void the warranty, I take it?

Just want a second opinion before I do anything dumb.

[steel umbra]

depends on where you live

[hot willow]

Canada

[hexed tapir]

Warranty void stickers hold no water in America

[hot willow]

#tech-chat-1 message

[frigid blade]

Im not sure actually, when I got my ram and took off the heatsink, the void warranty sticker was on the RAM and said void if ripped

I didnt rip the sticker, soooo

[gentle kestrel]

at 6000 38 you can safely assume the dies aren’t great

[hexed tapir]

You can check what die it is with software

[steel umbra]

i'm not sure/ i don't recall how's it in canada, i would check your laws

[frosty oriole]

I personally haven't had great luck with that.

[hot willow]

Man I really should have bought my motherboard before the RAM. Don't have any DDR5 motherboards on hand

[steel umbra]

should be covered if you have under device serviceability or self repair that those do not void warranty

[frigid blade]

ah right, the die can be random on RAM

[hot willow]

Yes, Teamgroup doesn't make their own dies

[hexed sage]

who has computer

[frigid blade]

Id say half of the server has a comptuer

[hexed sage]

only half

[high halo]

What about the other half?

[frigid blade]

laptop or phone

[high halo]

Valid but I dotn think its that low tho

I think maybe 80/20 ratio

[steel umbra]

anyways, if you're going to do it regardless try to not damage the sticker

[hot willow]

Actually, I'm not sure how I can pry open the heatsink. What tool will I need?

[steel umbra]

pretty sure without it some rma process would be much harder

[frigid blade]

I used a hair dryer to heat it up and used a quarter and penny to pry open, but thats probably not the safest way

[high halo]

Is cyberpunk a good story rich game?

[hexed tapir]

Can also check mobos manufacturers memory compatibility they show you the manufacturer

[steel umbra]

quarter is way too thick lol

[frigid blade]

that was for opening it

[hot willow]

You mean they will show you the die manufacturer too?

[frigid blade]

i used the penny to stick in between, kinda get it loose, once it opened a bit I used a quarter

[steel umbra]

use a plastic prying tool or a thinner metal one (but be careful with that)

[hot willow]

Also we don't have pennies anymore in Canada

[gusty wagon]

I find it fully worth buying it at full price

[frigid blade]

if you heat it up enough you can probably do it with your hands tbh

[high halo]

Is it story rich tho?

[frigid blade]

but thats gonna burn

[high halo]

I usually prefer those kinds of games

[steel umbra]

you're increasing the risk of the stick slipping out of your hands

and ded

no more stick 💀

[frigid blade]

you know people do this to scam?

I saw a post once, they take off the heatsink and stick a different stick into it

[hexed tapir]

Yes

[frigid blade]

then return it

[gusty wagon]

Ah, so you want a guarantee.

I have three playthroughs at near 600 hours in total - that is how great the story feels to me.

[steel umbra]

A STUPID scam

easiest way to jail

[high halo]

Ok, thanks for the info, but does it have fsr

[hot willow]

My understanding is, third-party RAM manufacturers will use a mishmash of dies, so the only way to find out for certain is:

1. Via software, or
2. Heat gun to melt the hot glue, then pry it open

[high halo]

I dont have a necessarily mid range pc

[frigid blade]

bro you can literally google all of these questions

[hexed tapir]

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/Z890-AORUS-XTREME-AI-TOP/support#support-memsup

[high halo]

Ik but it will never beat real experience

From ppl who actually played the game

Rather than ai

[frigid blade]

i said google, like find a reddit post

not ai, also now ai usually provides links to user threads

[gusty wagon]

It supports fsr, xess and dlss

My settings are

• medium-high
• 1440p native
• no framegen
• 80-90fps
• on 1080p, i get 100+++

Hardware

• 5800X3D
• 6800XT
• 32GK850

[high halo]

Ok, thanks for the help

I might consider getting it tbh

[frigid blade]

oh god, i wonder if this display is even 1080p

it looks like its 720p

[gusty wagon]

If you like crafted storylines, 2077 is a lovely one

Dishonored and dishonored 2 are amazing, too

[high halo]

Yeah I refer those kinds of storylines

Tbh I prefer rich story in general

[gusty wagon]

I just bought rdr2 and uncharted bundle

[high halo]

Oh, im also considering rdr 2

[gusty wagon]

Though i might go out and socialise more starting this year

[gusty wagon]

Covid changed the way the world works, and the guys don't know how to flirt properly anymore

[hot willow]

Well blow me down. I was wrong.

[hexed tapir]

Playing rdr2 at work on my steam deck right now

[high halo]

But I'll probably get 2077 tbh

[frigid blade]

crazy resolution holy that photo resolution is shit too

[gusty wagon]

Lucky you. My workplaces allow zero amounts of personal electronics.

@hexed tapir My module P/N actually ends with BK, not 01. Search results are all from foreign countries, which is not encouraging...

the laptop with the i7-6500U ran medium vanilla MC at 1080p60fps stable

[frosty oriole]

That's pretty lame.

[hot willow]

Defense contractor?

[frosty oriole]

That's pretty cool, lol. My Deck's battery is shot, unfortunately.

[gusty wagon]

This is the life we have resigned ourselves to.

[fickle ivy]

omfg this laptop is fucking constantly thermal throttling

i fucking hate gaming laptops

[frigid blade]

have you tried to use throttle stop and undervolt

[cunning juniper]

keep getting audio renderer error on yt and shit anyone know why this could happen

[frosty oriole]

What kinda place doesn't allow personal electronics, if you don't mind me asking?

[gusty wagon]

Does that happen in Defense? I know that some of my clients are commercial / private and they just don't like contractors doing that.

[fickle ivy]

undervolting is too complicated for me

[frigid blade]

its not complicated at all, you click a slider like 3 times, test with benchmark, repeat until you hit a spot where it crashes and keep it just below that lol

[quaint mesa]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tXKFnp

any thoughts on this? budget is around 1.2k

[hexed tapir]

I always play it plugged in

[pallid temple]

https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/MF2KVF , can someone help me and change this?
Performance > Looks

[frigid blade]

whats the budget

[pallid temple]

1000-1200

[hot willow]

SCIF (Secured Compartmented Information Facility). Commonplace among U.S. government contractors. Random drug testing is also common (for security clearances), and many contractors don't even allow alcohol on company property.

[steel umbra]

change the 5060 ti

[frosty oriole]

Ye, I'm having to do that now, too. Had to do it before while overclocked, but now I have to do it almost all the time. I get like 20 minutes of battery life.

[pallid temple]

to what

[gusty wagon]

Oh, FBI?

[steel umbra]

do you need vram for something?

[pallid temple]

not really, just like nvidia more than amd tbh

[steel umbra]

if it's possible go like used 4070 super or 4070 ti

[pallid temple]

im not going used

ikn its cheaper but i dont trust people

[frigid blade]

yah but its how you get better performance for the same price as new

[pallid temple]

yea but in the netherlands people treat gpu horrible

[frigid blade]

amazon has insanely good deals sometimes on used parts

it just takes tons of time looking through eBay, Amazon, etc for a good deal

[pallid temple]

But like if im going all new is this a good pc?

[steel umbra]

https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/product/DWBFf7/asus-dual-oc-geforce-rtx-5070-12-gb-video-card-dual-rtx5070-o12g

[frigid blade]

Um, I think you can probably find some ways to save money on it and get better CPU and GPU

[pallid temple]

can u help with that

[frigid blade]

Look at this one:

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/8hxJ2x

I made this not long ago

[orchid trellis]

I just got my steam deck today and its already non functional. I could get it working again but that would require putting back in the lower capacity ssd. Internet went down so im stuck on cell and cant download the image

[frigid blade]

It fits a 7800X3D and 5070 for $1500

[pallid temple]

its not netherladns

[frigid blade]

If you look for used you can probably get it for $1500 AFTER taxes

[steel umbra]

yeah it's outdated rn

[frigid blade]

Was just an example

The budget was $1500 and it had to be a sff pc

[hot willow]

Not necessarily. NIST, DIA, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman...most DC/NoVA contractors will have TS/SCI-access-needed projects.

[pallid temple]

can u make one for MAX 1250 Euro netherlands?

i want all new, or used from amazon or trsuted

[frigid blade]

Not today, I gotta mess with a laptop thats what Im doing rn

[frosty oriole]

That's rough buddy.
Can you not create an image with the Deck on the smaller SSD?

[quaint mesa]

is this good or should i make some changes?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tXKFnp

[orchid trellis]

The smaller ssd has the image installed. Its the ssd that cane with it. Just cant download the os for the bigger ssd right now due to the internet going down.

[frosty oriole]

Do you have an external NVMe enclosure?

[hexed tapir]

I can change it maximize the budget

[orchid trellis]

No

[quaint mesa]

could you please ty

[frosty oriole]

Ah, rip.

there isnt any reason to get an overpriced motherboard if i am not overclocking heavily right

im just gonna do the normal EXPO and what not

nothing crazy

a b650 should suffice

[teal sinew]

yes a b650 board will be fine

[raw olive]

i havent been checking lately but as far as i remember any b650 board will happily run any cpu you can put in it because cpus are efficient and not power hogs

is it still the same i have no idea

$360 for a 7600xt

well ill be damned

is it unethical to test out an nvidia card and then return it if i dont like it and want to stick to amd

[rigid ether]

nop

[fallen sky]

people say it is when i asked in a photography server

hmm ill do it anyway

i wanted to try out a new camera

[rigid ether]

its ur money

[fallen sky]

my god

first time seeing 32gb

[rigid ether]

which nvidia card do u want to test

5060 ti 16gb?

[fallen sky]

yeah

something around there

[rigid ether]

also look for used 3070 ti 16gb and 3080

[fallen sky]

i'll have to wait a long time if i use anything other than 1 day prime shipping from amazon

$400 for a 3080 ti 12gb but it will get here in 2 weeks

bleh

[hexed tapir]

3070ti is 8gb unless they modded it

[fallen sky]

not even 12?

[rigid ether]

is there 9060 xt 16gb and 5060 ti 16gb on amazon

[plush wren]

No

[fallen sky]

yes and yes

[ruby ferry]

yo can yall tell me if this is a good price ($900) on this pc i found based off the specs ?

[fallen sky]

i dont have prime at the moment so dont pay attention to the shippping times*

i'll get it and cancel it after i buy my stuff

[hexed tapir]

Nvidia saw we wanted more vram on the 8gb gddr6 3070 so when they made the 3070ti they changed it to gddr6X memory and kept it at 8gb

[fallen sky]

lame

[rigid ether]

sure

[ruby ferry]

worth $900 ? or would there be a better option for a prebuilt

[hexed tapir]

Bad deal

[rigid ether]

nop, 5060 is bad

only 8 gb vram

[lapis furnace]

@iron glen apparently my old ssd was the same price as my new ⬇️

[ruby ferry]

dang i thought the new ones would be good

[fallen sky]

who tf is game master

[ruby ferry]

?

[fallen sky]

honestly i dont think i'll be wanting to keep an nvidia card because there is no appeal to fake frames for me

but i ill still try it out

I thought u were getting the nvidia

and returning if u didnt like it

[fallen sky]

i still am but was also looking at other amd cards

not much to think about there tho

7800xt is overpriced

[rigid ether]

9070 and 9070xt are good too

[fallen sky]

7600xt/7700xt arent worth the money

what.

just drag and drop

I wonder when's the release for the 5070ti 24gb version

[pure mica]

I downloaded my game on my laptop drive, and willing to move it to my pc drive, but thing is idk how to move it(for steam) until it wants to show the play button

[rigid ether]

9070 xt has better raytracing, path tracing and generally higher/similar fps than 7800xtx

though

[fallen sky]

so...

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[rigid ether]

maybe Q4

[harsh vector]

Go to settings -> storage -> create a steam directory for where you want your games to be moved to -> go back to your original drive -> select the games -> move it

[fallen sky]

thats what i was just about to say ^

[harsh vector]

oh nvm

[pure mica]

I'm deadass don't understand about this thing, I need guidance 🙂

[grizzled frost]

I’m using a p3 plus as my main 4tb drive lol

[winter lantern]

i just use 4 2tb 980 pros

[sinful cobalt]

Then Im gonna get a NM790 for NVL build

also another 4tb

[winter lantern]

do alot of mobos have 4 nvme slots

[sinful cobalt]

well technically I can buy a P3 plus and that possibly might also go into the 2nd ssd slot for the T1

[grizzled frost]

i would just be paranoid about drive failures

[sinful cobalt]

8tb beast

[grizzled frost]

i was thinking about getting a second 4tb drive and raid 0ing it

[winter lantern]

they have 4.5k hours and work just as normal

[indigo token]

my pc just booted up to this screen after deleting everything on my ssd what should i do

[grizzled frost]

i have weekly backups to my nas anyways, so raid 0 would be fun

an ipad is ill suited for a field like engineering

[winter lantern]

a 13900kf is bad 💔

[grizzled frost]

i’m currently at work (also edt)

[reef pollen]

[plush wren]

Well you can technically go to sleep

[winter lantern]

ig intel is trash like eveyone says

[thorny saddle]

that sounds terrible

[sinful cobalt]

drop me ur cpu and cpu cooler combo and Ill fake kidnap u

[plush wren]

Yes noob

[sinful cobalt]

abduction 1o1

[grizzled frost]

7800x3d and some thermalright aio i forget the name of

240mm aio

[thorny saddle]

that memory is not good

[winter lantern]

im using a gtx gpu with it

[plush wren]

Bro I need to run like 50km to be tired enough to go to sleep before 10pm

[plush wren]

Well thats just great

[reef pollen]

any recommendation ?

[sinful cobalt]

the thermalright aios are cheap af but my friend just reco’d the tried and tested 240 atmos

[grizzled frost]

get two sticks of ddr5 6000mt/s cl30

[sinful cobalt]

irdk tbh

[grizzled frost]

single channel will hurt performance majorly

6000mt/s is also more stable on zen4

[clear canyon]

Its not as bad as ddr4

[winter lantern]

for the first month i had my pc my ram was at 4800mts

[reef pollen]

any brand suggestions ?

[thorny saddle]

any 6000 CL30 or CL32 kit

[grizzled frost]

doesn’t matter much

[plush wren]

i will attempt to sleep now, good luck to everyone at sleeping early

[grizzled frost]

cheapest from a brand you’ve heard of basically

[winter lantern]

i changed it to 6000mt when i updated bios

[plush wren]

holy moly its day time

[winter lantern]

need that green brick ram

[clear canyon]

Any peformance improvement noticed?

[sinful cobalt]

my bios reset my ram back to 4800 for free

[grizzled frost]

there is literally no one in my store rn, yet i’m not allowed to leave for four more minutes

[reef pollen]

what about mobo ? CL32

[clear canyon]

Free 4 min of pay

[winter lantern]

bro hears the birds chirping

[sinful cobalt]

i left 20 mins earlier one time

[winter lantern]

nope there was no difference

[clear canyon]

Damn

[sinful cobalt]

in fact, all of us did since noone was left lmao

[plush wren]

soon

[grizzled frost]

mobo is fine

[winter lantern]

its all propaganda fr

[plush wren]

im planning to wake up in 4 hours maybe this wasnt the greatest idea

[grizzled frost]

i’d have to close the whole store to do that

[winter lantern]

sybau and sleep

[grizzled frost]

i’m the only front end employee working

[reef pollen]

does it have a good upgrade path ?

[grizzled frost]

everybody else is 3rd shift stocking crew

[grizzled frost]

am5 upgrade path as any other am5 mobo would have

[winter lantern]

yall think am5 is done

or will there be a 10000 series for it

[grizzled frost]

guaranteed support till 2026 or 2027, i forget which

I have a feeling they’ll change the naming scheme before that happens

but a 11800x3d equivalent is likely

[reef pollen]

Corsair Vengeance RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL36 Memory - is this good @grizzled frost ?

[sinful cobalt]

Yea we closed the entire store since all the customers left early af lmfao

It was past last order, so we were allowed to do so

[azure topaz]

explode

[sinful cobalt]

why are we going for overpriced corsair ram

[leaden lantern]

can someone help me? 3070ti locked at 210mhz clock speed

i can explain the situation in call

I'm so confused how to fix...

[azure topaz]

any 6000 c30 or otherwise the cheapest 6000mhz kit

[leaden lantern]

dm me whoever wants to try to help

[reef pollen]

i want rgb fps as well.

[reef pollen]

any recomendations ?. >6000mhz +

[sinful cobalt]

dawg just get the cheapest 6000mhz cl30 like they suggested

[arctic kettle]

Yeah 6000 cl30 is good.

Unless you want potential issues with enabling xmp or want to spend an extra 50+$

Unless you like tuning it yourself the issues suck when they happen.

[unreal bramble]

between the deathadder and the viper which mouse would you guys choose?

[sinful cobalt]

neither of the above garbage

[arctic kettle]

I like the viper better for the shape.

[thorny saddle]

I would choose logitech g pro superlight 2

[unreal bramble]

well its not for me its for a friend and she is more of a casual gamer

[arctic kettle]

Basilisk V3 Pro is my personal fav though out of razers stuff

[unreal bramble]

she doesnt need anything crazy

[formal sonnet]

This depends. Are you installing Razer's software, or just using the mouse as-is without their software?

[sinful cobalt]

lamzu>

[unreal bramble]

probably will end up installing it tbh

[sinful cobalt]

thats hell you’re stepping into

[unreal bramble]

i should let her use the mouse i have and see if she likes it

though tbh it probably wont be needed

[limber ermine]

🤔

[formal sonnet]

Then I would advise NOT purchasing Razer hardware. Their software is ... not great.

[unreal bramble]

tell me about it LOL

[limber ermine]

How old is this

[kindred talon]

guys could someone please help me with my asus tuf f16, whenever im playing games my ping spikes a lot and my fps drops down cuz of it sometimes leading it to freeze my game and sometimes ccrashing? could someone pls help i just go tthis laptop 2 days ago

[azure topaz]

[sinful cobalt]

lamzu>

[carmine yew]

[sinful cobalt]

[unreal bramble]

[kindred talon]

im so sad

[fallen sky]

catloaf

[sinful cobalt]

bcs u dont look properly pretty boy

[carmine yew]

25+ years old

[sinful cobalt]

fossil*

[limber ermine]

I just checked unfortunately it's not atx.

[carmine yew]

Boards back then used liquid caps, so they're almost guaranteed dead

[carmine yew]

Uhhhhh

It should be

[limber ermine]

The form factor so weird

[unreal bramble]

bruh

[carmine yew]

Atx is really old

[limber ermine]

Look

It doesn't even have the normal io

It's like really really ancient

[carmine yew]

Nope, you're right, that is AT

Zoom in on the top of the cpu

[unreal bramble]

ok im looking at their products now which would you recommend?

[azure topaz]

atlantis

[sinful cobalt]

maya
atlantis
maybe thorn

[limber ermine]

Lol what was I thinki g

I thought I could build new PC in this lol

[kindred talon]

@unreal bramble what your budget

[carmine yew]

Nope

[limber ermine]

It's quite a nice case. It even got back panel to cable manage

[unreal bramble]

its not for me and i still need to modify the part link anyways

[carmine yew]

If it's at, it's probably a P2

[limber ermine]

What's a p2

Sorry this Computer is older than me

[carmine yew]

Pentium 2

[limber ermine]

I just looked at the cpu it's p3

[unreal bramble]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7RHfgn this is only a portion of the part list (she has a budget of around $1200 USD or so)

[azure topaz]

this surface charges really slow

[unreal bramble]

i would like it to stay microatx cause of smaller case options

[limber ermine]

The cpu is released in 1999 it's less old than I expected
