[harsh vector]

Is there anyway to change this to Mbps instead of MB/s in rockstar launcher?

[dapper dragon]

Just x8

[vestal sonnet]

hey chat

[dapper dragon]

Or use base10 if you’re shit at math

[lethal bay]

Does it really matter? lol

That’s roughly 650mbps

[harsh vector]

Just curious

[frigid topaz]

80MB is pretty fast

[harsh vector]

Can do it on Steam so was wondering where the option is in rockstar launcher

[dapper dragon]

I hate you lmao

[lethal bay]

y

[dapper dragon]

Wrong person

[dapper dragon]

Meant for you, push ISPs to allow 10gb connections everywhere

[swift kestrel]

if i install windows 11 to upgrade from windows 10 on a usb will i get to keep files and apps? im trying to upgrade to windows 11 without a usb and it keeps rolling back to windows 10 and failing

[frigid topaz]

Wild

I get 80mbps

Belgium is a shit country

[dapper dragon]

You’re telling me these ISPs can’t run hundreds of millions worth of fibre just for someones grandma to still run 100/100?

[solar moat]

wow thats fast

[dapper dragon]

Rough

[solar moat]

at least i not getting 100kbps any more

[frigid topaz]

Takes me like 10 hours for gta5

[solar moat]

wow i wish it was not a full day for me

[lethal bay]

After a certain point I feel like it doesn’t matter lol

I went from half gig to gig and my experience is ultimately very similar

[frigid topaz]

I wanna get like 300 mbps atleast

[dapper dragon]

Biggest jump I noticed was going from 1gbps to 1.5

[lethal bay]

Like downloading games after is cool but I don’t download games that often

If you have an Intel Raptor Lake system and you're in the northern hemisphere, chances are that your machine is crashing more often because of the summer heat. I know because I can literally see which EU countries have been affected by heat waves by looking at the locales of Firefox crash reports coming from Raptor Lake systems.

Incredible things are happening

[lethal bay]

people act like Intel chips are nuclear reactors

[little fossil]

They are not nuclear reactors, they are exploding nuclear reactors!

[lethal bay]

My 14900k runs cooler than my 7700x but yall don’t wanna hear that

[dapper dragon]

The micro code issue really has everyone making tinfoil hats

[lethal bay]

Yeah for sure but like lol

[ebon marlin]

That's not hard to beat since AMD forces zen5 CPUs to run at 95C 24/7

[lethal bay]

Yeah but like it’s kinda funny

My 14900k running 10C cooler at almost double the wattage

[ebon marlin]

So far I've drank a liter of milk at work today that's meant to be used for the coffees

[sinful cobalt]

Idk what AMD is doing with their tdp scaling icl

[ebon marlin]

Isn't AMD's zen5 IHS also very poopy

[solar moat]

welp at least the 7700x dont need crazy cooler to have it run good

[solar moat]

ITS THICK

[ebon marlin]

Yeah

[dusk acorn]

Idk how to explain this but my fan is rated 5v for rgb but it also wants 4 pins for the rgb to actually work. The regular 3 pin 5v doesnt power the rgb (its like bugging out or something) and I dont think i can use a 12v controller since its not rated for the voltage so idk what to do

[sinful cobalt]

the 14900k at the same wattage as the 7700x will run cooler ofc

until u blast that thing at 200+ watts

[solar moat]

but 14900k drawing 300W

[lethal bay]

No dude like

[ebon marlin]

Nice they're finally selling the CMF 2 Plus's in Finland

[lethal bay]

My 14900k runs like 81C at 240W on the same cooler my 7700x runs at 95C at 140W

[sinful cobalt]

ok wtaf amd tdp scaling indeed suck balls

[solar moat]

stop feeding the BS of TDP

[ebon marlin]

AMD built their zen5 CPU's very awfully

[lethal bay]

Thermal density and IHS design

[lethal bay]

7700x is Zen 4

[raven scroll]

What’d they do

[ebon marlin]

Rly? Guess I mixed it up

[lethal bay]

Ya 7000 is Zen 4, 9000 Zen 5

[sinful cobalt]

did u get a contact frame for ur 14900k

[solar moat]

am5 just has thick ihs and there are other factors

[ebon marlin]

What Macdonald's said above

[solar moat]

at least they dont draw 2x the tdp at stock

[gilded harness]

yeah like amd ihs sucks ass

[whole violet]

Anyone know a good water block for an evga ftw 3080ti? Been looking on my own but I ain't too bright about water cooling GPUs

[raven scroll]

What cpu

[gilded harness]

13700K and 7900X

[solar moat]

have you sene amd cpus draw 500W and be at 50c?

[raven scroll]

My amd gpu has never reached over 70c

[gilded harness]

i mean they are server cpus

[raven scroll]

Cpu*

[gilded harness]

of course they need a really insane cooling

[raven scroll]

Then that’s a diff story

[gilded harness]

guh i want a new case now

my pc looks boring

[raven scroll]

Send pc pic

[sinful cobalt]

anddd what cpu and cooler

[lethal bay]

Yes but not currently using it. Long story.

[sinful cobalt]

long story short I had to thoroughly inspect ur mpower at customs for almost 2 weekd

[lethal bay]

Amazon shipped me a used, broken contact frame. Sold as new.

[sinful cobalt]

LOL

amazon return process i heard is ez af to manipulate

[lethal bay]

It is but this shouldn’t be slipping through sold as new

[ripe solstice]

does ram speed actually matter

[lethal bay]

There’s literally a return sticker on the packaging. Should automatically not be sold as new.

[lethal bay]

To a point yeah

[ripe solstice]

like apparently my ram speed is slow what does that actually do

[rigid ether]

do u know what a ram does?

[ripe solstice]

not really

[sinful cobalt]

correlates to cpu performance with both transfer speeds and cas latency

[rigid ether]

it temporally stores data and instructions the processor needs to quickly access while running applications and the operating system

its significantly faster than ssd, disks etc at transferring data to the cpu

[ripe solstice]

so how big a difference does speed make

[rigid ether]

depends on what gen ur ddr memory is

[sinful cobalt]

a couple of percent afaik

[ebon marlin]

Way more than just a couple

[sinful cobalt]

thats if you really nitpick stability OC

iirc against base, EXPO 6000 CL30 on AMD was like 4% faster

[ripe solstice]

I got 12.147s on PYPRIME

how bad is that

[ebon marlin]

If they're using ddr4 then Ddr4 2133mhz vs 3200mhz it can easily be a 20% difference or even the difference between unplayable stuttery mess and completely playable

[rigid ether]

do u know what kind of ddr memory u have

[sinful cobalt]

sorry, can I get the source of ur 20%?

[orchid trellis]

Probably a dumb idea but what if i put a normal glass screen protector on top of a privacy screen protector for a phone?

[ripe solstice]

no lol

[ebon marlin]

I'm talking about gaming performance

[rigid ether]

well its ok if u can use ur phone properly

[sinful cobalt]

Well done- You have done essentially nothing

[ripe solstice]

is there a way to check in device manager

[sinful cobalt]

I mean like, ur data for 20% gaming perf diff

[ebon marlin]

Isn't it common and well tested knowledge

[orchid trellis]

The privacy ones I’ve noticed are kinda weak for protection

[sinful cobalt]

A screen protector is pretty much supposed to break to protect the actual glass

Its like how helmets work

[orchid trellis]

Head in a Helmet in a helmet

Maximum protection

[lethal bay]

Actual MT/s speed matters less than timings

[sinful cobalt]

No, not rly

[lethal bay]

XMP/EXPO is often just jedec performance with extra steps lmao

[sinful cobalt]

i dont see how expo gives a 20% boost on average

[ebon marlin]

There's alot of games that are very memory sensitive

[lethal bay]

It mattered more on AM4 because infinity fabric syncing helped latency a lot

Latency can buff performance that hard

But with DDR5 it matters less ngl

[sinful cobalt]

i saw slightly better 1% lows with ur quickslap instructions

[rigid ether]

CPU-Z

[sinful cobalt]

granted it was in valorant lmfao

[cold skiff]

Competitive players have their keyboard rotated 90deg

[lethal bay]

with the tRFC and tREFI stuff?

[sinful cobalt]

yessir

[lethal bay]

Yeah that’s like 85-90% of the performance buff right there lol

[rigid ether]

can do something like this

[sinful cobalt]

I did the same with my friend’s, slapped on 1.45v to CL28 and it was like 0.5% better lmao

[lethal bay]

Wouldn’t bother with primary timings tbh

[ripe solstice]

just found out I had an r7 7800x3d not 5800x3d lol

[lethal bay]

The difference between 6000 cl26 and 6000 cl36 is actually minimal

[sinful cobalt]

I just kept his at 6000, did 1.35>1.45 and CL30>CL28

[ripe solstice]

I have ddr5

[sinful cobalt]

That 0.5% was only in benchmarks

[lethal bay]

hopefully not an ic that degrades above 1.4v 🙏🏼

[sinful cobalt]

the gains arent rly noticeable for g a m i n g

[lethal bay]

this is halfway a joke but like lol

[urban olive]

hey guys, im losing my mind tryna build my first pc but it doesnt give signal my dms are open can someone help

[royal loom]

Tried exactly that about 23 times sometimes I put it on it's face on the carpet and put about 60kg on it for about 2 weeks each times

It's not a thick carpet

It's about 1.5 cm thick

[sinful cobalt]

@lethal bay I rmb that friend who told me to insert the display cable into the GPU and not the mobo

Went out to swap his PSU and guess what he did when I asked him to put in the HDMI canle? Exactly the opposite

[ripe solstice]

is that slow

[lethal bay]

Can you go to the SPD tab

and send a screenshot

[lethal bay]

Oh you literally just don’t have expo enabled lol

[solar moat]

load xmp

[lethal bay]

You have a 6000 CL38 profile

[sinful cobalt]

back to the 9070xt i go now

[ripe solstice]

so just put xmp on in bios

[solar moat]

yes

[solar moat]

maybe even slap on buildzoid easy timings

[cold skiff]

So you just found out you’re AM5 and not AM4? That’s wild

[ripe solstice]

is 7800 am5?

[solar moat]

yes

[cold skiff]

Yup

[ripe solstice]

wth

do not remember buying that

[cold skiff]

Do you remember buying DDR5? For AMD RAM and socket aligns nicely

[ripe solstice]

Nope

got short term memory loss lol

[cold skiff]

Did you actually build it?

[ripe solstice]

yeah

[cold skiff]

That’s wild.

[ripe solstice]

like a year ago

[cold skiff]

It took 2 years for our sofa to bounce back on carpet. Was there for 1 year

[ripe solstice]

does it matter which one

[solar moat]

load it

load the 1

[ripe solstice]

xmp1

[solar moat]

ok

[ripe solstice]

turn high bandwidth support on aswell?

[solar moat]

noooo

[solar moat]

this is way better and works most of time
https://www.patreon.com/posts/low-effort-rank-77403831

[ripe solstice]

thankyou guys for the help btw did not realise these were things I had to do

now that I am pushing for 500fps will probs help

[ripe solstice]

are there any risks to this like cooking my memory

[solar moat]

nope

[vestal sonnet]

also is ubuntu compatible with a lot of games nowadays

[solar moat]

its ok

[vestal sonnet]

I’m wondering if I should use it as a dualboot

since I use windows 11 as I got a laptop last year

[solar moat]

kind of need to since many have anti cheat that only runs on windose

[vestal sonnet]

yikes

also no pings pls

[solar moat]

but protn is good at running many games that dont run nativty

[vestal sonnet]

protn?

[solar moat]

Proton

[vestal sonnet]

tbh I don’t understand a lot of new tech stuff

[solar moat]

capability layer to transalate dx calls to valken

[vestal sonnet]

ahh ok

[ripe solstice]

I enabled xmp1 and score is still 12.129

did it not save or something

[vestal sonnet]

but yeah how much farther can I emulate out of an asus gaming laptop

[solar moat]

dose it say your running ddr5 6000

[ripe solstice]

on cpu-z?

[solar moat]

i gess

[ripe solstice]

says 3k if Im looking at the right one

DRAM frequency

[solar moat]

yes

[plush wren]

[solar moat]

and uclk is at 3000mhz aswell yes?

[mellow remnant]

guys which one should I choose, a 6900 XT merc319 black or 7800 XT nitro+? Both are the exact same price for me

[ripe solstice]

uncore 3k aswell

[solar moat]

yes

[ebon marlin]

How much

[ripe solstice]

so do I need to select a different profile in bios then

[plush wren]

[solar moat]

what?

is uncore not uclk in cpuz?

[ripe solstice]

it had profiles xmp1,2 expo 1, 2

[solar moat]

load xmp 1 or expo 1

the 2 is at 5600

[mellow remnant]

615$

[ripe solstice]

it says uncore freq in cpuz

[ebon marlin]

Damn that's expensive

[solar moat]

what is it? 1500mhz or 3000mhz

[ripe solstice]

3k

[ebon marlin]

You can get a 6950xt for 350-375€ here

[mellow remnant]

it’s the lowest in my country btw, legendary deal

[ripe solstice]

wrong one

[ebon marlin]

It's down to personal needs to which u'd want

[solar moat]

ok if you want faster copy this

[ripe solstice]

is all of that in bios

[solar moat]

YES

[ebon marlin]

Nvm the difference between the both is much smaller than I thought

Get the 7800xt

[mighty warren]

Can anyone give me a quick value on a laptop if I give specs? It’s a marketplace deal and I wanna make sure the description seems legit and that it’s worth what the guy is asking.

[mint umbra]

Bro my provider just cancelled my plan out of nowhere cuz 3g is too old now I guess

[lethal bay]

I mean yeah

this has been a known thing for… several years atp

[mellow remnant]

But which one I said is quieter and cooler

[ebon marlin]

Depends on the model

[mint umbra]

Since when

Like sure 5g is the newest technology

But never thought they would make ppl switch if they didn't want to

As 5g shit is too expensive

[ebon marlin]

How and why are u still using 3g in the big 2025

[ebon prawn]

Holy crap

[ebon marlin]

Here in Finland they started shutting down 3G towers in 2023 and finished shutting down every single one in 2024

[hoary tree]

Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic

[ebon marlin]

Another ISP fully shut theirs in 2023 here

[ebon marlin]

Both ass 💔

Samsung having the worst foldable in the game

[hoary tree]

Don't you use an iPhone?

[ebon marlin]

???

I use a Oneplus 13R

[hoary tree]

Oh, even worse

[ebon marlin]

???

[plush wren]

samsung user final boss

[ebon marlin]

Samsung bootlicker unable to understand there's better products out there

[hoary tree]

I am able to understand that theres a lot of great products out there

You are unable to understand that

Specify to me what makes the z fold 7 and galaxy watch 8 classic "trash"

[plush wren]

what makes oneplus and apple trash

[ebon marlin]

4400mAh battery and their crease

[hoary tree]

I don't actually think they're trash, lol

:3

[plush wren]

💔

[ebon marlin]

There's already foldables which have already gotten rid of the crease completely ages ago

[plush wren]

foldable phones are STUPID.

[ebon marlin]

I think the first one to do it was the Oneplus Open

[hoary tree]

OK, now I know you haven't seen anything on the these new devices

[ebon marlin]

Samsung is just late always with the foldables

[ebon marlin]

I doubt Samsung has gotten significantly better with their crease on the fold on the 7th gen one

[hoary tree]

The fold 7 looks the same, I just forgot to take photos of it open 😅

[ebon marlin]

Oneplus Open released in 2023 and Samsung still hasn't gotten their crease solved jfc

Oh my god the Z Fold is also using an under display camera 😭 😭

[hoary tree]

That photo is intentionally trying to make the crease visible

Do you use your phone that way

[hoary tree]

That's a z fold 6 btw

[ebon marlin]

That's like one of the first results when searching "z fold 7 crease"

[hoary tree]

This is a worst case scenario with the fold 7 btw

[ebon marlin]

Aye nice they finally evolved from an under display camera to a proper one

[hoary tree]

I can tell you have seen nothing about the fold 7 and you are just hating on it for no reason

You didn't even know it doesn't have a UDC

[ebon marlin]

Samsung has been generally very disappointing with foldables so was already expecting them to be disappointing once again

[plush wren]

[ebon marlin]

But if the crease is finally gone from the Fold then congrats to Samsung to finally catching up to Chinese manufacturers that already got it figured out 2 years sgo

But samsung is still very disappointing currently with their foldable even now

[hoary tree]

Lol, you are just a hater

[ebon marlin]

??

[hoary tree]

You clearly seem to like oneplus

[ebon marlin]

How is Samsung putting a 4400mAh battery justifiable on a 2000$ phone

[ebon marlin]

No

[hoary tree]

Literally everything i have seen you talk about is oneplus lol

[ebon marlin]

? I just mentioned Oneplus got rid of their crease in the foldable display in 2023

Literally their first foldable phone didn't have a crease

Samsung is late to the party as always

[hoary tree]

Lol, oneplus hasn't released any foldables since 2023

Also, every other foldable from Chinese brands is making some form of massive compromise

[mint umbra]

Cuz it's cheap

[hoary tree]

Whether its with the processor or something else

[mint umbra]

In this economy I can't afford 5g

[ebon marlin]

If I were to get a foldable rn I'd just get the Oppo Find N5 or a Huawei Mate X6

[mint umbra]

I wouldn't get Chinese foldable

[ebon marlin]

The N5 has a 5600mAh battery

[mint umbra]

They prob put their spywear on it

[ebon marlin]

Chinese smartphones are way ahead the game than others like Samsung

[hoary tree]

Ah yes, the mate x6 which costs significantly more than z fold 7 while being worse

[ebon marlin]

Rage bait or mental underdevelopment

[mint umbra]

Rather use samsung and not get spied on

[hoary tree]

Samsung's foldables also have the best durability and structural integrity

[hoary tree]

Not probably, definitely.

[hoary tree]

Also, worse screens

[mint umbra]

Like what skin of android do they even use

[raven scroll]

9800x3d cooled by thermaltake th360 v2 argb

[ebon marlin]

the N5 is also ahead with using silicon carbon battery aswell

[mint umbra]

Idk I like the functionality of one one ui

[sinful cobalt]

over 70c while gaming yes

[hoary tree]

No its not well ahead considering it can survive less than half as many battery cycles as samsungs batteries

[sinful cobalt]

try a benchmark and it’ll jump over that fence

[mint umbra]

I mean I don't think that battery tech makes a bit difference

Big*

Like I've seen comparisons of op13 and s25

Not a big difference

[hoary tree]

Also, silicon carbon batteries are far more dangerous than lithium ion batteries

[raven scroll]

Okay…but I’m quite certain I don’t remember ever seeing the number 7 as the first digit while checking temps

[ebon marlin]

Source?

[mint umbra]

Idk about that

Seems like fake news

[ebon marlin]

Fearmongering for no reason other than to lick the boot of Samsung 💔

[mint umbra]

But the difference in capacity ain't that much

Capacity is what really matters

[plush wren]

bold statement

[hoary tree]

EPREL

[mint umbra]

I still think Samsung has more premium phone

[ebon marlin]

You'd get 27% more battery life

[hoary tree]

Not fake news. You can look it up

[hoary tree]

That's not true

On the s25 edge for example, a silicon carbon would only give it an extra 200MaH of capacity

[ebon marlin]

oh my fucking god Samsung is fucking using lipo batteries in the Z Fold 7

[mint umbra]

Samsung battery capacity 5000 OnePlus 6000 not huge difference

[ebon marlin]

Samsung is cheaping out so much with the battery jfc

[mint umbra]

For s25 ultra

[hoary tree]

Wrong. Its li-ion.

[hoary tree]

That's just false

[ebon marlin]

https://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_z_fold7-13826.php

[mint umbra]

And I don't like oxygen os

I had one plus and returned it

[hoary tree]

Are you seriously using gsmarena for specs

Theyre rarely accurate

Samsung uses Li-ion

[mint umbra]

I found I was missing notifications alot

[hoary tree]

They have always used Li-ion

[mint umbra]

As the vibration intensity is fucking ass on op13

I can barely feel it when it's in my pocket

[ebon marlin]

You might've turnt ur vibration down or turnt it off

[mint umbra]

And the customization is alot better with one UI

[hoary tree]

Samsung uses very dense lithium ion tech

[ebon marlin]

I can feel vibrations very well with my op13R

[mint umbra]

I have it on max setting

And the vibrations are short af

[ebon marlin]

I own a S23U one UI is so ugly

[hoary tree]

OK, you are definitely a oneplus fanboy

[mint umbra]

Oxygen os is lacking in customization

[ebon marlin]

??

I literally own a S23U

[mint umbra]

No good lock

[hoary tree]

This is oneplus 13

[hoary tree]

OK, and?

[ebon marlin]

Also owned a Z Flip 4 previously too

[mint umbra]

You can customize it so much better on Samsung

[hoary tree]

OK, and?

[hoary tree]

Good lock is awesome

[mint umbra]

One plus ur limited

[ebon marlin]

I have experience with the product and it's just ugly

[mint umbra]

I'm waiting for tab s11 to come out

[hoary tree]

If you thought its ugly you wouldn't have gotten them.

[ebon marlin]

It's not for me

[raven scroll]

I’ll reply to you in a month when I can use my pc

[mint umbra]

I'm waiting to trade my tab s9 for an s11

[raven scroll]

👍

[ebon marlin]

I got it cuz it was 300€ and it's going to my girlfriend after she comes back from her trip as an upgrade from her iPhone 11

[mint umbra]

I just don't see reason to use op13 over Samsung

[ebon marlin]

She really likes the rectangular shape of it and the pen functionality since she's an artist

[hoary tree]

There isn't.

And sales represent that.

[raven scroll]

Have yall seen the questionable design of iPhone 17

If that shit real

[hoary tree]

The s25 series has outsold all other snapdragon 8 elite phones COMBINED

[plush wren]

Ok

[ebon marlin]

Have you thought that Samsung is a big brand and others are smaller

Or is that Samsung boot too far up ur mouth

[hoary tree]

I think it doesn't look too bad to be honest, they didn't make any real changes to the design all things considered

Which isn't a bad thing

[raven scroll]

I dunno

[hoary tree]

The nothing phone 3 is a PERFECT example of that

[raven scroll]

why’d they make the bump elongated

[mint umbra]

It's had nothing to do with sales for me just usability

Issues with notifications and not many accessories

[hoary tree]

The sales im talking about include worldwide sales

[ebon marlin]

This is irrelevant to my discussion

[mint umbra]

Like I can't not for the life of me find a case with a kickstand with one plus 13

[hoary tree]

That includes China

[ebon marlin]

Samsung is also dominating in China due to how big they are

[mint umbra]

Like why can't I find a case with a kick stand

One op13

[ebon marlin]

Ur comparing a tech giant to a small companies

Which is just insanely dumb

[junior valve]

wrong pole

[hoary tree]

LMAO, the Chinese brands are HUGE in china

[ebon marlin]

Yes, cuz they're local

[plush wren]

cheap

[mint umbra]

Samsung has better displays

[hoary tree]

They're not "small" by any means

[mint umbra]

Samsung has best display

[ebon marlin]

There's Nokia here with their good products but everyone still uses iPhone/Samsung

[junior valve]

they r all the same tbh

[ebon marlin]

Isn't Samsung still using 8bit colors

[mint umbra]

Samsung has always been on top with their displays

[hoary tree]

8 bit FRC. 8 bit FRC is used by Google, apple and Samsung

[ebon marlin]

No the fuck they haven't??

[hoary tree]

They have.

[ebon marlin]

Samsung is still using 8bit colors in the big 2025 even with their S25 Ultra

[hoary tree]

There's nothing wrong with using 8 bit+FRC.

[ebon marlin]

It's just cheap

[mint umbra]

Every review I've seen in past like 5+ years always talks about how good the flagship Samsung displays are

[hoary tree]

No

[ebon marlin]

It is

[hoary tree]

It simply doesn't matter.

[ebon marlin]

The difference is very noticeable lol

[hoary tree]

That's extremely unrealistic LMAO

Thats bordering on misinformation

[mint umbra]

They look the same

[ebon marlin]

Pal atleast remember to wipe ur mouth when ur done with Samsung

[ebon marlin]

I suggest going to the eye doctor

[mint umbra]

I get annual check ups

[ebon marlin]

It's the most obviously noticeable thing

[ebon marlin]

@plush wren you can tell the difference very easily right?

[gilded harness]

ts is annoying

[charred kiln]

They definetly do not

[mint umbra]

Guess looking a bit closer it looks a bit better

[odd marsh]

Oh hell nah I'm not buying a display with only 8 bit support

[mint umbra]

But not by much

[gilded harness]

like holy fuckign shit i paid a lot for this monitor

[ebon marlin]

Then I recommend avoiding every single Samsung device including the S25 Ultra which still uses 8bit colors

[mint umbra]

The difference isn't a big deal

[charred kiln]

I didn't even have to look twice to stop the difference

[gilded harness]

to see 8 bit shading

[ebon marlin]

It is very noticeable in ur pictures

[mint umbra]

It's not gunna make not buy a phone

[hoary tree]

This is an actually realistic comparison.

[mint umbra]

I don't take pictures

[ebon marlin]

For me it is cuz I don't want a budget display

[charred kiln]

Here I can't spot a difference

[thin plover]

look at the sun

[ebon marlin]

I got true 10bit colors and I can even type on my phone when the screen is fully wet in the rain lol

Budget phone btw

[hoary tree]

"Budget display" LMAO. You wish.

[plush wren]

look at the sky

[ebon marlin]

Paid 275€ for it

[hoary tree]

Oh no! I care SO much

[ebon marlin]

It quite literally is

[mint umbra]

One plus 13 is overrated

[hallow jasper]

10-bit? psh, pump those numbers up

[hoary tree]

No, it isn't.

[mint umbra]

The os sucks

Would be better off with even Google os

[odd marsh]

agreed

[ebon marlin]

There's Xiaomi with true 12bit colors on their cheaper phones

[hoary tree]

You're the most obvious oneplus fanboy I've ever seen

[ebon marlin]

Dude if I had the choice I'd switch from Oneplus immediately

[hoary tree]

Bar none

[ebon marlin]

I'd get a Vivo immediately if possible

[hallow jasper]

oh, we're talking about phones. 🥱

[mint umbra]

There isn't much 12 bit support from what I've read

[hoary tree]

Uh huh. No you won't

[odd marsh]

yeah but still, yuck

[ebon marlin]

Yes I would have u seen Vivo's cameras lmfao

[odd marsh]

10 bit is my minimum

[ebon marlin]

I got this cause this phone was so cheap

[mint umbra]

Who needs 12 bit

[ebon marlin]

I paid 275€ for my Oneplus 13R brand new in box

[hoary tree]

I have, theres nothing special about them.

[mint umbra]

My next phone prob the next Samsung

[hoary tree]

The software lets it down

[mint umbra]

Cuz what else would I get

[ebon marlin]

Tbh that's a gimmick but still funny that Xiaomi's budget phones displays are outdoing Samsung

[hoary tree]

Theyre not

[ebon marlin]

12bit is a gimmick but 10bit isnt

[hoary tree]

10 bit is a gimmick.

[ebon marlin]

Yeah man keep licking that boot

[odd marsh]

Dolby Vision is 12 bit

[ebon marlin]

LMFAO NO WAY 😭

[hoary tree]

You wont notice a difference in real world scenarios

[ebon marlin]

Most obvious Samsung fanboy jfc

[hallow jasper]

You guys sound so ridiculous.

[ebon marlin]

This is just mental underdevelopment atp

[odd marsh]

HDR is unusable without 10 bits

[mint umbra]

Think xaoimi isn't supported by my provider

So it wouldn't work

[hallow jasper]

up next, "HDR is a gimmick"

[hoary tree]

Xiaomi phones are interesting

[ebon marlin]

I noticed the difference immediately when I first switched from an 8bit display phone to a 10bit display

[mint umbra]

Same with Hauwai or whatever they are called

[hoary tree]

HDR is absolutely not a gimmick

[ebon marlin]

My photos immediately looked better

[mint umbra]

Alot of Chinese brands are blacklisted by my provider

[hoary tree]

But acting as if 10 bit is somehow worlds better than 8bit+FRC is silly

[ebon marlin]

It literally is

[hoary tree]

Especially for standard users

[hallow jasper]

I'm aware, i'm poking fun at you too calling things gimmicks with.. zero information

[hoary tree]

No it isnt

[hoary tree]

You aren't a professional colorist

[ebon marlin]

Just shut up man keep stuffing ur mouth with that boot

[mint umbra]

Who uses hdr in a phone

[odd marsh]

https://tenor.com/view/sketch-whats-up-brother-funny-twitch-gif-18084904052923259782

[mint umbra]

I've never used hdr on mobile

[ebon marlin]

An actual picture difference

[hoary tree]

Dude, HDR is incredible

Give HDR content a watch

[mint umbra]

I watch HDR on my PC and shit

Not my phone

[hoary tree]

That photo is genuinely unrealistic and borderline misinformation

[mint umbra]

Watching shit on a phone in general is ass

[odd marsh]

I will watch HDR across all 5 of my OLED displays

[ebon marlin]

If you actually go outside and take pictures outside it is very much realistic

[odd marsh]

SDR is for chumps

[mint umbra]

The future is miniled

I honestly hardly ever use HDR on my PC just one movies on my tv

[hoary tree]

Again, nope

[mint umbra]

I think alot of games HDR just sucks

[hallow jasper]

its basically a default these days

[ebon marlin]

I use an AMD card so I can't even use HDR

Not a big deal since my HDR monitor is poop

[mint umbra]

Wdym you can't use HDR

[hallow jasper]

🗣️

[hoary tree]

Its not the same on pc.

[mint umbra]

How is amd limiting HDR

[ebon marlin]

Unusable on my 6800xt

[odd marsh]

depends on your display

[hoary tree]

Especially if you dont have an OLED

[hoary tree]

Yeah

[ebon marlin]

Pretty sure they've fixed it on newer gpus but it's unusable on my 6800xt

When using HDR on my 6800xt everything turns greyer

[mint umbra]

I still think OLEDs are flawed technology with the burn in issue

[hoary tree]

Nah

[ebon marlin]

That has been resolved like 5+ years ago

[hoary tree]

Not exactly

[ebon marlin]

On phones atleast but on displays that got resolved like last year for the most part

[mint umbra]

I can't use an OLED for 6+ years like with other displays

[hoary tree]

It can still definitely happen.

[mint umbra]

Cuz of burn in

[ebon marlin]

It's easy to not let it happen

[hoary tree]

Its also easy to let it happen

[ebon marlin]

It's very easy to avoid it

[mint umbra]

I have to like hide task bar and shit and make sure u don't jeep same programs open for too long

[ebon marlin]

Pixel refresh

[hallow jasper]

Why not?

[odd marsh]

burn in is not really that much of an issue anymore with modern OLEDs

[mint umbra]

Cuz of burn in

Is burn is as bad as before maybe not

But it's still occurs

[hallow jasper]

Oh damn, better tell the C9 people with 20k hours about that.

[hallow jasper]

Yes, usually among the unaware of what they bought crowd and the unlucky.

[sinful cobalt]

Man i sure love doing productivity like 10 hrs a day burning in the screen

[ebon marlin]

Reminds of this one reddit post I saw sometime ago where someone had a nsfw site logo burnt in their screen lmfao

[hallow jasper]

If you bought an OLED for that, no one to blame but yourself.

[mint umbra]

I had my IPS display for like 10 years

[sinful cobalt]

No, its just meming on him

[mint umbra]

Won't be able to do that with my OLED display

[ebon marlin]

Get a modern OLED and it's very much possible

[hoary tree]

Also, LCDs can also get image retention

[mint umbra]

I doubt it

[hallow jasper]

I'm curious how you know that, and what you would say to the 10y/o LG OLED owners with no burn in today.

[mint umbra]

Will prob get discord tab burnt in

[ebon marlin]

Do you really use Discord on ur main screen 😭

Holy discordian

[mint umbra]

I use one monitor

[ebon marlin]

2nd monitor is life changing

Especially with oled

[mint umbra]

I have 32 inch monitor

I have no room

[ebon marlin]

Get a 24 incher

[abstract wigeon]

tiktok

[mint umbra]

There's no room

For a monitor

[lapis furnace]

i browsed more M2's than SATAs apparently

[ebon marlin]

Make room

[hallow jasper]

Here is where we are. If you used a monitor for 10 years, you don't really care much about monitors so that explains why you're not interested in the benefits.

[ebon marlin]

I got my first paycheck today very much contemplating about getting an OLED monitor the Aorus FO27Q2 but I'm moving soon

[mint umbra]

My desk is only so big

[ebon marlin]

Get big desk

Small desk is for weak small manlet

[mint umbra]

Room doesn't fit a bigger desk

[ebon marlin]

Big desk is for big man with lots of testosterone

Small desk fills ur body with estrogen

[hallow jasper]

Get your priorities in order. All you need is enough room to walk in and sit down, the rest can be mega desk.

[mint umbra]

My desk is touching the walls

[ebon marlin]

Isn't everyones

[mint umbra]

On both sides

[hallow jasper]

lol

[mint umbra]

No where to expand for bigger desk

[ebon marlin]

Tear ur walls down for extra room

Or make a 2nd floor shelf for ur 2nd monitor

[mint umbra]

Y'all are ridiculous

[hallow jasper]

It should be obvious where it turned into just meming

[ebon marlin]

There's always an option when you're creative enough

[lapis furnace]

@hallow jasper

[mint umbra]

Either way I still say when mini LEDs get cheaper they will be better than OLED

[sour remnant]

Opinion about this laptop? Under €1,000 and small form factor

[ebon marlin]

Mini led will never be better than oled

[ebon marlin]

7735U for 915€ 💔

[hallow jasper]

To be better it would have to get more expensive, not cheaper.

[ebon marlin]

Impossible for an LCD to be better than OLED

[sour remnant]

Depends on the use case

[sour remnant]

Not everything is gaming pal

[mint umbra]

My shit prob gunna get burn in like 3 years

[ebon marlin]

Not talking about gaming

It's zen3

Older architecture = worse efficiency = worse batterylife

[sour remnant]

So what would you recommend, needs to be small 13-14 inch, and powerful.

Not a MacBook, college specifically states it can’t be MacOS.

[mint umbra]

And my monitor don't have do 2.1 support

Dp

[ebon marlin]

See if you can find an used 7840U/8840U

[sour remnant]

On it

[regal sentinel]

does anyone have the role id of @ambotplskick

[mint umbra]

Welp Tien for bed

[regal sentinel]

i wanna mention a role w no members for no reason

[ripe solstice]

budget of 500USD for case, cooling motherboard anyone got recommendations its for a r7 7800x3d and 4070ti

want something more aesthetic then what I got I like the SFF but most of them just look kinda bin

[ebon marlin]

500$ is alot for allat

Any color preference?

[hallow jasper]

There is one monitor I can think of that needs that to function at its fullest, the 57" 7680x2160@240Hz G9 Neo.

[leaden pecan]

hi

[ebon marlin]

no

[leaden pecan]

?

[stoic tiger]

looking for a gpu upgrade from my 2060, i have a 5800x3d and need it mostly for cs2. I was thinking either a 5060 8gb or maybe 6700xt? Preferably something under £300

[ebon marlin]

For that you can get a used 6800xt easily

[ripe solstice]

not particularly

white or black

[stoic tiger]

yeah i could, better to go with AMD for this price range?

[ebon marlin]

Definitely

Nvidia is an awful choice unless you get their current gen 90 series card

[stoic tiger]

6800xt better than a new 7600xt?

[ebon marlin]

6800xt is better than the 9060xt so yes

[ebon marlin]

Okay imma wipe my ass and imma get ur list ready

[ripe solstice]

would sff with a glass panel look too messy

[ebon marlin]

If u want sff also specify what case

[alpine heron]

Any recommendtion for some displaypprt cables? Needing some half decent ones. 1.4a or better and hoping like 10ft?

[ebon marlin]

To know what PSU to get

[ripe solstice]

havent had much of a look yet I know some support atx psu

[fringe prairie]

hp omnibook ultra

oh wait you're in europe?

[ebon marlin]

Google displayport 2.0/2.1 and go to the products page

[fringe prairie]

xmg evo 14

[alpine heron]

What product page?

[fringe prairie]

https://bestware.com/en/summer-deals

evo 14: select kingston fury ram, 1tb sn580, and your preferred keyboard layout

[ebon marlin]

Isn't it better to get it barebones instead and add ur own ram and ssd

[gilded harness]

nah

wait nvm this isnt sff enough

[ripe solstice]

dayumn that is nice

what case is that

[gilded harness]

but still small

lian li a3

[ebon marlin]

Looks like an Asus Prime case

Ah nvm

[fringe prairie]

i don't think it even comes barebones

the min is like 8/512

[ebon marlin]

Asus ProArt*

[ebon marlin]

Gay company

[ripe solstice]

how big is the a3

[left dove]

hey google, how big is the lian li a3 micro atx case?

[ripe solstice]

26.3L

[ebon marlin]

You can choose to get without the ssd

[fringe prairie]

oh nice ig you can save like 15-20 euro there

[ripe solstice]

damn dan cases are so expensive

[ebon marlin]

If you also want to be an extra cheapskate you can also get 1x8gb ram and get another 8gb stick

New one should be around 25€

[ripe solstice]

do I need an AIO for a SFF 7800x3d

or will air cooled be fie

[ebon marlin]

For SFF an AIO is basically necessary

[alpine heron]

That's not an answer
DP cables are often overclaimed

[ebon marlin]

This is gayer than being gay 💔

[ebon marlin]

It doesn't really matter that much

If it works it works

[quasi moat]

Thank you random discord slooth

[alpine heron]

But that's the thing, they don't just wotk

[ebon marlin]

Your welcome finsterr

[alpine heron]

They get finnicky as they're not in spec or barely within spec often

[ebon marlin]

I buy the cheapest shit I can find and they all work fine

[alpine heron]

Glad that's worked for you

[ebon marlin]

I even have a Usb-c thunderbolt cable that I bought from AliExpress for 9€ and it works just like it should

It can do it's rated 240w and work as a proper thunderbolt cable for monitors

[alpine heron]

I have some pretty good stuff from Ali. Just gotta be cautious overall

[ebon marlin]

Usually big brand names like Deltaco have proper cables

[alpine heron]

Have had some cables that were too thin for 5A the chip said they could draw and so got pretty darn toasty and unacceptable temperature rise

[plush wren]

one earthquake and its over

[ebon marlin]

One earthquake and they'd lose like 20€ in value if all the gpus fall off the shelf and die

[plush wren]

We not talking about value

[ebon marlin]

Lmao is that Fortnite

[gloomy sleet]

that does look like it doesnt it

[quasi moat]

Growing up isn’t for everyone

[agile stag]

guys i have a theory

maybe cops dont care about less bad speeding because they do it so often in and out of work,,

[ebon marlin]

https://tenor.com/view/how-you-felt-hero-tough-tough-guy-how-you-felt-after-saying-that-gif-12464623776561746518

[ebon marlin]

What do you consider less bad speeding

[gloomy sleet]

2kmh over

[ebon marlin]

Since atleast here in EU you can go past the speed limit legally aslong as you don't go over 3km/h over the limit

[gloomy sleet]

yeah that

[ebon marlin]

Since they correct the speed by -3km/h officially

[gloomy sleet]

yeah

here its a 3mph gap

[agile stag]

like 10 over

[gloomy sleet]

if your 3 over they dont care enough

[agile stag]

mph*

[gloomy sleet]

dang

thats fast as hell

[agile stag]

some places it matters less especially highway sometimes flow higher than that normally

rarely but sometimes

[gloomy sleet]

i personally think cops have a quota of people they have to stop everyday

[agile stag]

iirc it was monthly

[gloomy sleet]

so they just stop that many people

to be fair all 3 speeding fines ive gotten ive fought in court and won

literally every single time i just say "when did you calibrate the speed camera last"

[agile stag]

hmm maybe ill run that if i get one

[gloomy sleet]

your meant to do it every 3 months they never do

one guy left it uncalibrated for 8 years

[agile stag]

i almost got a speeding ticket once but i guess they didnt recognize my car enough to pull me over so i got away with it

[gloomy sleet]

every speeding fine that camera gave over that 8 year period was dropped

[agile stag]

that is pretty insane damn hell yeah

[gloomy sleet]

so some guy who was speeding 30mph over the speed limit 8 years ago got his money back from the fine

[ebon marlin]

Alot of cops just don't come to court when you try to challenge the ticket

[gloomy sleet]

oh this is different

we use speed cameras over here then just automated fines

[ebon marlin]

We have that here too

[gloomy sleet]

they take a pic of your car and then fine you later on

i dont think ive ever seen a cop actually on duty

[ebon marlin]

Same

[agile stag]

oh yeah i remember uh uk right

[gloomy sleet]

yeah

[ebon marlin]

Here in Finland and Estonia there's just speed cameras even in rural areas where there's barely anyone

[agile stag]

some guy did some super fast record run and didnt get caught by a single speed camera and i think they deemed him innocent

[gloomy sleet]

i once called the police over a dispute with a guy at a bar i was working at and it took them 45 minutes to arrive

usually they let the thing happen and then give out the punishment after the fact here

[ebon marlin]

Pals were digging their butts

[gloomy sleet]

that mf was like 14 with a fake license

this was in 2020 (october) after brexit and he had an EU license

[agile stag]

god imagine taking a bicycle onto one of those raised express ramps that just sends you down a big ass hill to get up to speed

[left dove]

You mean the on-ramp?..

[plush wren]

is 50 over the speed limit ok?

[zinc widget]

I think it’s funny my desktop is gonna use a usb adapter for 10gbe

(Well Thunderbolt but still)

[charred knot]

hey gang is this a good deal for a first home lab

[agile stag]

maybe this is why europeans dont speed as much

50 over sounds fucked

[zinc widget]

Honestly it’s gonna be loud as shit. Ur better off getting a used Dell optiplex and putting hdds in it

[agile stag]

mmhm but like i hit one once and it was so sloped and onto an express highway or whatever so faster roads

i got to cosplay a ferrari it was fun

[zinc widget]

If you wanna salivate @charred knot I just blew 2k on my first homelab yesterday lol

[agile stag]

why dont people homelab uh a normal pc and maybe add hotswap front bays if they want

[zinc widget]

265k with 32gb and 32 TB with 10gb SFP+ in an ITX case

[agile stag]

mph thats like 30 over thats not as bad i can stomach that

[plush wren]

50kmh over in a 30 zone

[agile stag]

thats like going 100 in a 65 enough thats really fast but still stomachable in the right conditions

[plush wren]

[tired bear]

32tb of ssd or hdd?

[agile stag]

you can do 100 on highways not for long but you can

[plush wren]

100mph ?

[charred knot]

i have a cabinet for it already

[zinc widget]

HDD, I forgot 1tb of ssd cache

[plush wren]

u can do 100mph here on highways as well

[charred knot]

holy

[agile stag]

yeah :3

[plush wren]

thats not a lot

[agile stag]

its a fair amount

[plush wren]

well yes

u can do it here too depends on the highway tho

[tired bear]

eh, i went 200km/h already for a extended period of time

[agile stag]

i dont really go faster than that ever anymore because my bf said no and also i dont want that speeding ticket

[plush wren]

too bad a 2006 skoda cant reach that speed

[ripe field]

hey so this is probably gonna be a weird question, but how does one convert the hd audio header on the case to ac97 on the motherboard

also hi koda

[agile stag]

dont worry it might have a higher top speed than an ev still

[plush wren]

[agile stag]

hi :3

i pick on evs top speed so much but they deserve it

[plush wren]

190kmh

[tired bear]

it can (once)

[agile stag]

grr i wish measurement auto converted let me get my conversion tool

[plush wren]

LMao

skoda

[agile stag]

190 isnt bad

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/octavia-skoda-drift-octavia-drift-car-gif-21519487

[tired bear]

škoda

[agile stag]

my bfs brand new uh probably sub 5 second 0-60 car has like a 110mph top speed or something its really dunny

[plush wren]

yes škoda

[agile stag]

meanwhile mine apparently can do 155 but i cant test it

[plush wren]

evs in the big 25

[agile stag]

me when the good condition koda is cheap

also that white bar is not usually there grr curse of screenshot

[zinc widget]

Also why is this thing so cheap. Went with it for my homelab cache lol

https://a.co/d/hlbLj3x

[ripe field]

or hmm, could i possibly bypass the integrated audio by using a pci sound card

[agile stag]

people should add ls400 lights to a dog

[zinc widget]

2005 called they want their part back

[agile stag]

wait whats the issue

[ripe field]

funny that you mentioned because the system im dealing with is from 2005

[agile stag]

i can fix pcs,,,,

[ripe field]

i have a 2005 prebuilt, but the case is all ruined, so i thought i can just case swap it with a modern case since its dirt cheap

thing is, it uses ac97 instead of hd audio on the motherboard

[agile stag]

aw grrr

[ripe field]

so i cant just yknow, plug the header in and expect it to work

[agile stag]

does it have audio io in the back

[ripe field]

it does, but if possible i want front panel audio as well

[agile stag]

hmm mmk

a sound card may be in order

[ripe field]

i have three options on how i have to deal with it

1. somehow find a way to convert hd audio to adapt to ac97
2. hunt down for another old case
3. use a sound card

[agile stag]

hd audio to ac97 sounds jank and ao agrees uh

[ripe field]

it is jank, completely different pinouts

[agile stag]

you could try running some adapters off the rear audio

and just lose rear audio stuff

or not adapters but extensions of some sort

[ripe field]

😔

[agile stag]

or a sound card

[zinc widget]

https://www.moddiy.com/products/HD-Audio-to-AC97-Adapter-Cable.html

[agile stag]

i suppose it exists

[ripe field]

thats not it, the female header is meant for hd audio on the motherboard

[agile stag]

id run it and see what happens amazon has returns anyways

[agile stag]

grr backwards curse

[agile stag]

that sound card looks like garbage

[zinc widget]

https://www.moddiy.com/products/AC'97-to-HD-Audio-Adapter-Cable.html

[ripe field]

i found this on a chinese marketplace for like 10 dollars

[agile stag]

my sound blasters had gold accents you should have standards

also ebay is probably not bad for that if youre in the US

[ripe field]

oh

[ripe field]

im not 😔

[agile stag]

grr tragic i dont have any uh platform recommendations then

[ruby parrot]

what laptop should i get? i dont game besides like very very very light games. i mostly code. also i use arch (btw).
i really like the snapdragon x laptop but im not sure how good support is on that for linux.

nah its fine someone linked the correct adapter

[agile stag]

ebay might still cook but itll never be the same </3

hell yeah thats good good luck

[zinc widget]

@ripe field iirc you can just make your own

[pastel ridge]

Guys my computer was taking over 8 hours to power down, am I cooked

[ripe field]

last time i diy'ed something i got slapped with black smoke in my face

[agile stag]

why didnt you turn it off

[ripe field]

i think ill pass, convenience is very cool :)

[agile stag]

i once had curse of hp motherboard turning into a candle somehow

i dont think ive had any other electronics make fire other than one(1) battery

[ripe field]

hp

[pastel ridge]

I pressed shut down like I usually did around 23:45 and I woke up at 10am to see it still shutting down

[ripe field]

seems about right

[agile stag]

hm meh you could force shut it down but i also just sleep my computer every night

[agile stag]

fucking hate hp,,,

[pastel ridge]

My computer would just freeze like it usually does

[ripe field]

tell me about it

[agile stag]

im glad that i dont have to deal with them that much

[sand epoch]

why does my samsung buds 2 pro have better bass than my 200$ g773

[agile stag]

awrf 75+ screws for a repaste

[tired bear]

yep, i can crimp one rn

[agile stag]

earbuds have it easier

[agile stag]

that sounds abnormal

[sand epoch]

my 80$ jbl 760nc also has better bass

but it's not as comfortable as g773

hp be like we put 8 screws on the laptop, youd never guess where the rest 8 are

[agile stag]

my 20$ cca cras can produce the most bass out of everything without distortion

[ripe field]

(theyre under the feet)

[agile stag]

thats evil but at least its normal

[sand epoch]

should I try eq? i have a option called advanced eq on my ghub app

[ripe field]

its not normal, it was never normal

[sand epoch]

would eq help with basa at all

[agile stag]

its like they put the cpu at the heart of the laptop and to repaste it i literally need to separate every single component of the laptop

[sand epoch]

i can't even feel the bass of carti songs

[agile stag]

hhhh i could take you down a rabbit hole

[sand epoch]

carti and ken carson without bass is so bad

[agile stag]

but its a lot uh

there a method that costs a little bit of money to start but its the best method

[sand epoch]

could link me to a reddit post and i could do my own research

[sand epoch]

what method

im saving for a iphone 15 because I waana see what the hype about iphone is , i have a s24 with me so nothing too expensive

[ripe field]

theres nothing special

[agile stag]

but uh eqing is good but bass also uses more power i think and it cant just materialize

[plush wren]

fears to fathom

[ripe field]

unless youre in the ecosystem

[agile stag]

yeah probably give me a sec

[abstract wigeon]

s24 is really nice phone why do you want a new one

[ripe field]

coming from someone who has the full suite

[abstract wigeon]

even then i wouldnt say its worth

[sand epoch]

idk i never used a apple before so why not ig

i heard the video on iPhone is the best

[ripe field]

yeah i mean if what you have works for you dont try to get locked into it

i did that mistake few years ago

[sand epoch]

i was almost in the Logitech ecosystem but got a keychron keyboard because apparently Logitech keyboards are really really trash

[abstract wigeon]

airpods are the only apple product i actively like everything else im impartial or dislike

[ripe field]

started with an ipad, then an iphone, and im now typing this on a macbook air

[sand epoch]

charging 200$ for some lame ass blue switch keyboard with "RGB" is unacceptable

[agile stag]

i switched away from mine theyre too poorly made and im sick of them feeling like theyre better than me because they think that only they can fix iphones

[ripe field]

i dont remember the last time people recommended gaming brands for peripherals

when chinese manufacturers are usually cheaper and better

[sand epoch]

i mean g pro and g502 wireless are like the best mouses out there for gaming tho

[sand epoch]

razer too but I've never used a razer before

[rancid solstice]

Another 5090 ded

[robust trail]

thank you! This means I can finally buy a new pair of shoes

[sand epoch]

wish I had a 5090

[robust trail]

Oh dang

[agile stag]

john ill friend you i cant find good sources because the internet sucks but like uh if you feel like getting a wired headphone setup with a cheap amp setup then i can help and youll have bass that you cant really get out of anything wireless because it could never fathom being connected to the wall for infinite power

[sand epoch]

i have a 7800xt and I feel like my pc is low end when i see stuff like 5070ti perfomance

[sand epoch]

alright

[agile stag]

ive yelled about this to other people i just gotta find the messages and screenshot them but i know ive gone into detail about it multiple times

[odd marsh]

I think as of yesterday you can buy a couple new pair of shoes

[robust trail]

All PCs are low end when you compare them. Be happy you have a computer and don't worry about the Jonses

[robust trail]

Not anymore, we're not worth $4T anymore

[ripe field]

there are people who still game on rx480/580 you know

[agile stag]

but the end result is wild and its also easy to add cheap speakers(but not like modern ones actual older ones that take two wires per speaker and stuff)

[ripe field]

(me)

[sand epoch]

do u work at nvidia?

[agile stag]

they go crazy though

[plush wren]

how old r u Btw

[sand epoch]

16

[robust trail]

I may work at nvidia

[odd marsh]

Oh shit, guess you can maybe get a pair of Skechers?

[plush wren]

what do you use your pc for

[rancid solstice]

Funny enough the box for the gpu smells exactly like a shoe box

[agile stag]

i game on my 3060🥀

[sand epoch]

playing cod

[abstract wigeon]

shut the hell up

[ripe field]

they are, thats why i bought one

[abstract wigeon]

sorry that wa sa joke

[robust trail]

probably just keep rocking my socks

[ripe field]

3600 and a 580 baybeeeeeeee

[abstract wigeon]

not agressive

[plush wren]

you'll probably stop using your pc for games in the future

[agile stag]

i got a sapphire one its one of my favorite gpus that ive ever touched its very well made :3

[sand epoch]

why

[odd marsh]

Ah that's good enough, I just hope you don't step in a puddle

[agile stag]

nuh uh i run up beamng often enough

[sand epoch]

i love cod , ive been playing cod since im 7

[ripe field]

sapphire is evga equivalent thats why

[plush wren]

probably

[agile stag]

blessing of finding an excuse to upgrade my pc

[ripe field]

goated amd exclusive partner

[plush wren]

responsibilities and allat

[plush wren]

😭

[agile stag]

they are quite goated indeed yeah,,

[robust trail]

considering I just paid off my wife's master's degree student loans? I can't afford socks right now.

[ripe field]

thinking of jumping to am5 and 9060xt 16gb once i get into scholarship

[agile stag]

i have one of the blue sapphire 580s too i love it so much

[robust trail]

https://tenor.com/view/sad-cry-gif-5050535

[ripe field]

isnt that 590 gme

[sand epoch]

well i bought a pc with my own money and my responsibilities for now is my pc lol

[agile stag]

they made them in 570-590s i think maybe

definitely 580-590 though

and they had a gold 590 too iirc

[odd marsh]

I can send you a pair? Might have a hole but can't beat free socks (Congrats on paying that off, huge win!)

[plush wren]

[ripe field]

oh yeah 580 se

[sand epoch]

i heard the 9060xt handles rt good

[ripe field]

frankly i dont care about rt as much

[agile stag]

grr i still gotta refine my builds i have so much pc to work on still

that 580 build could be better,,,

[ripe field]

nice addition, but doesnt really add a lot to the gameplay

[agile stag]

either way i have to start my day im gonna try and work hard instead of hardly work see ya guys

[sand epoch]

oh and all my peripherals and a s24 even some steam games but the competition is out there but I still wish I had more money for a better pc

[plush wren]

do u even need a better pc

[sand epoch]

i wish I didn't so many games like a idiot on steam

[sand epoch]

i wanted to play wukong on 1440p but only got 70 fps on ultra

[plush wren]

[sand epoch]

?

[robust trail]

what's wrong with 70fps?

[plush wren]

fr

[sand epoch]

it's unplayable atleast for me
