3 times

[gloomy sleet]

not planning too

[gloomy sleet]

man shut up

[rancid solstice]

[hollow gull]

all i have is my watch telling my bpm and thats all i do

[distant frigate]

My heart rate recovery is pretty good. 53 bpm drop in a minute

[gloomy sleet]

i dont think ive ever looked at my bpm

it could be like 300 rn and id have no idea

[slim lake]

9800x3d or 9950x3d

[distant frigate]

I think anything above an 18 bpm drop in a minute is good

Anything below that signifies an increased risk of cardiovascular disease

Resting heart rate and other factors are important too

[alpine blaze]

9950x3d go big or go home

[slim lake]

is it worth upgrading from my 7950x

[pearl pebble]

i really hope the PC shop is open over the weekend 💀

[slim lake]

idk same motherboard

[pearl pebble]

cant even open minecraft on this

[gentle kestrel]

if you think its worth the money then yeah it is

[alpine blaze]

which gpu?

[slim lake]

6800xt

[alpine blaze]

no

[slim lake]

ill prob get 6080 when it comes out

[gloomy sleet]

whats wrong

[slim lake]

i feel my gpu aging

[pearl pebble]

CPU is too hot

[gloomy sleet]

is cooler on

[pearl pebble]

IDK if i messed up the settings, or if the ocoler is just bad

[shy saffron]

Gaming - r7
Creative- r9

Honestly id take the ryzen 5 and invest the rest and take a new ryzen 5 in coming years (4 to 5 yrs) on the same board

[grizzled frost]

what kind of cooler

[agile stag]

heh

[pearl pebble]

stock AMD lol

[gentle kestrel]

why would they go from a 7950x to a 9600x

[grizzled frost]

what cpu

[slim lake]

i do gaming and creative

[pearl pebble]

r5 5600

[shy saffron]

Eh money savings

[gloomy sleet]

its not on correct

[pearl pebble]

well thats possible

[slim lake]

im too lazy to sell on ebay

so idk if tahts money savings

[shy saffron]

Marginal gains beyond a point - id keep the cash

[gentle kestrel]

they would just be spending more money to get less cpu 😭 that's not savings

[gloomy sleet]

take it off and put it back on again

[alpine blaze]

I was gonna get a 9800x3d but MC didn't have any so I got a 9950x3d

[pearl pebble]

hmmmm, i think im just gonna replace it all together tbh

[shy saffron]

Comparatively easy to sell to shops here in India

[slim lake]

not in the usa tho...

[pearl pebble]

with a 50$ cooler

[tired star]

guys anyone able to help?

[trim gyro]

they might be able to help

who you ask? google

[grizzled frost]

https://dontasktoask.com

[shy saffron]

India prices as of last year - have only increased
7600x - 21k inr
7700x - 33k
7800x3d - 40k

[gloomy sleet]

why

[slim lake]

so what im hearing is instead of wasting money on new parts because i want a new pc, ill just dissassemble my computer, and do a 150 dollar aesthetic upgrade (new case and rgb)

[shy saffron]

I saved 19k and that got me my motherboard and ram

[gloomy sleet]

a stock cooler should absolutely work on that cpu fine

you dont need a new one

[pearl pebble]

ive had multiple ppl tell me that the stock AMD cooler isnt able to handle an r5 5600

[gloomy sleet]

it is

those people are idiots

[slim lake]

wait is my air cooler sufficient for 7950x?

it has a 170w tdp

[pearl pebble]

[tidal geyser]

Who

[gloomy sleet]

what cooler

[true stirrup]

It most definitely can handle it

[pearl pebble]

stock, the thing with the r5 5600, that comes in the same box as it

[tidal geyser]

Yes 30$ gets you a cooler that can cool the low wattage of that chip

[gentle kestrel]

ryzen is going to try and sit 95c whenever possible, the box cooler is fine

[gloomy sleet]

5500 with stock cooler is fine

[gloomy sleet]

WRONG am4 doesnt do that

[gentle kestrel]

do not be scared of the 50c idle and think the cpu is dying on the cooler

[alpine blaze]

I have a 9950x3d on a thermaltake phantom spirit evo

[slim lake]

vetroo u6 pro dual fan air cooler thingy and i clipped an extra case fan to the back so technically its a 3-fan air cooler

[pearl pebble]

aaaaand the room temp is like 28c rn, summers hot

[shy saffron]

Smh i had heating problems with a deepcool ag620 on a 7600x

[tidal geyser]

Heating problems?

[odd marsh]

how hot was it getting

[gloomy sleet]

it wasnt mounted correct

[trim gyro]

I feel rich setting my thermostat to 25c

[hollow gull]

I have a 7900x and a 240mm aio and it gets pretty hot

[gloomy sleet]

why so hot

[slim lake]

whats that in

fahrenheit

[grizzled frost]

google

[trim gyro]

25*1.8+32

[shy saffron]

95 degrees during gaming
12.5 k on cinebench when 13.5k to 14k is average

[pearl pebble]

my room is far away from the AC so cooling is hard for me

[tidal geyser]

But no fps difference as always

[slim lake]

wait thats so hot

[gloomy sleet]

yeah

[slim lake]

how do u sleep?

[true stirrup]

That is within margin

[grizzled frost]

25c is boiling

[tired star]

i5-14400f + ASUS PRIME H610M-K D4
RTX 5060
650w psu

i built a few pcs and this is a straight up copy of the last pc i built, but its having issues where it doesnt show any image outside of bios and turns off after 1-2minutes. GPU is seated correctly, i reset cmos, played with the RAMs, any ideas why this might be happening?

[tidal geyser]

I almost can't sleep at 25c

[trim gyro]

I lower it to 24 before sleeping

[shy saffron]

Shifted to AIO - 30% FPS difference on stock

[gloomy sleet]

its 25c now and its hot

[grizzled frost]

21-22c is perfect

indoors at least

[tidal geyser]

That sounds more like something else was wrong

[slim lake]

i set mine at 61 fahrenheit so

[alpine blaze]

Thats cool lol

[shy saffron]

Very much possible

[tidal geyser]

The 7600x can only use 100w stock

[slim lake]

16 celcius

[carmine yew]

your cooler isn't mounted right if it's that hot

[shy saffron]

Had pbo on though

[pearl pebble]

seems like it

[tidal geyser]

If you turned on pbo with the aio that makes more sense also you would need to have like a 5090

[carmine yew]

or you forgot the thermal paste

[tidal geyser]

What I was typing up

[slim lake]

okay wait will all of my heat problems probably be solved if i remove the side panel?

[shy saffron]

7900 gre

[pearl pebble]

i specifically bought thermal paste for it

[gloomy sleet]

thats hell

[pearl pebble]

and it was adecent one too

[carmine yew]

what cooler

[pearl pebble]

cant remember which too, i just remember it cost a bit

[gloomy sleet]

we have like 20cm thick walls and triple glazed windows bruh it isnt cool

[pearl pebble]

stock r5 5600 cooler

[shy saffron]

Now im hardly going over 80 degree cpu and 60 degree C on GPU - 1080p for now

[gloomy sleet]

its 42c in my house

[pearl pebble]

im considering changing it but some ppl r telling me its more than enough for an r5 5600

[slim lake]

okay so i set my thermostat to the equivalent of 16 celcius so do yall think thats cold cuz its normal for me

[gloomy sleet]

theres not much i can do for this either

[carmine yew]

it's functional for it, but make sure all 4 pins are actually clipped through

[pearl pebble]

how hot is it outside/

?

[slim lake]

80-90

[grizzled frost]

WHAT

[slim lake]

so

[gloomy sleet]

what

[trim gyro]

only reason you'd swap out the stock cooler for a aftermarket cooler on a ryzen 5 5600 is if you find its fan noise annoying

[pearl pebble]

this guy wasting electricity

[gloomy sleet]

thats normal british wheater

[grizzled frost]

are you medium rare yet?

[gloomy sleet]

no

[grizzled frost]

give it a couple minutes, you'll be there

[gloomy sleet]

thats normal temperature inside a house

[slim lake]

25-36 through the summer

[grizzled frost]

that is a potentially deadly temperature indoors*

[alpine blaze]

Our low on the week is 26c

[shy saffron]

Or maybe invest in a good aio to keep the 5600 chill and use the same aio on the next upcoming build if required

[gloomy sleet]

i mean yeah

[pearl pebble]

i did ask here before and ppl were like "nah r5 5600 stock is bad"

[shy saffron]

Less likely a scenario

[gloomy sleet]

idk what you want me to do about it

[grizzled frost]

turn the AC up?

[gloomy sleet]

i dont have AC

[pearl pebble]

most answers were like that

[carmine yew]

it can cool a 5600, but not with any room left

It will be toasty

[grizzled frost]

wtf

[gloomy sleet]

its england no one has AC

[pearl pebble]

room left for........OC?

[gloomy sleet]

the houses are made to keep heat in

[grizzled frost]

why do yall not have AC?

[pearl pebble]

i have no intention of over clonking it tbh

[carmine yew]

AC is very uncommon in europe and UK

[grizzled frost]

yall better get AC, these summers ain't getting any cooler

[pearl pebble]

can confirm

[grizzled frost]

the UK is in europe

[gloomy sleet]

too expensive and not necessary according to the government

[pearl pebble]

i dont live in europe but my european friends dont even know what AC looks like

[grizzled frost]

the 42c indoor temp says otherwise

[pearl pebble]

i sent my friend a pic of an AC and she responded with "what is that device"

[gloomy sleet]

they meant specifically the uk

[carmine yew]

there was a whole brexit thing about that.

The UK is not europe 😛

[grizzled frost]

The UK is in europe, but not the european union

[gloomy sleet]

the government doesnt provide AC and it cost like $300 per unit

[gloomy sleet]

i can confirm we are in europe

[trim gyro]

cheap

[grizzled frost]

the US doesn't provide AC either, but we have it because otherwise we'd be dead

[carmine yew]

I spent nearly 400 on our bedroom AC

[hollow gull]

a regular window ac in the us is around 250

[gloomy sleet]

thats like a weeks rent bro

[pearl pebble]

you guys make it sound like boris johnson grabbed a big ass stick and pushed the entire island away from europe when bricksit passed

[trim gyro]

400 a week is very good rent price

[shy saffron]

Wise idea to invest in Fans?
Cpu - 7600x
Gpu - 7900 gre
Aio - msi mag coreliquid m360
Case - Gigabyte c301

[gloomy sleet]

real

whered we go?

[carmine yew]

you mean he didn't?

[grizzled frost]

"invest" in fans, no, buy some fans, yes

[pearl pebble]

i dont think hes built for that kind of work

[carmine yew]

exactly what kind of work is that fat bastid good for?

[shy saffron]

I mean this pc is with me for 6-8 years minimum

[grizzled frost]

buy some fans, it's not optional

but it ain't an investment, it's a purchase

[gloomy sleet]

he couldnt figure out the difference between an AI logo and his arsehole why do you think hes competent enough to do this

[shy saffron]

Well a desktop is used for work and play so

[pearl pebble]

i dont blame him for that

[grizzled frost]

does your PC already have fans?

[gloomy sleet]

thats fair

[pearl pebble]

not sure but definitely not handling a big stick

[shy saffron]

Normal case fans - white fans black case

[grizzled frost]

are they causing you any problems?

[gloomy sleet]

talking about blue passports

[shy saffron]

Not really

[grizzled frost]

then why would you buy new ones?

[carmine yew]

we all know Johnson was "good" at talking

[shy saffron]

Just a thought for maybe cooler temps - would make less likely for my legs to become tandoori chicken leg peices

[grizzled frost]

won't reduce temps

temps too high? turn up your fans

[carmine yew]

a better cooler puts MORE heat into the room

[grizzled frost]

same amount of heat*

[gloomy sleet]

he had a voice

[grizzled frost]

(assuming the same power draw)

[gloomy sleet]

he indeed had one of the voices of all time

[ebon marlin]

Intel is asking me for my phone number but it doesn't even let me input my phone number

[alpine blaze]

with current boosting it'll be more, because the components will boost higher creating more power draw

[grizzled frost]

Only if you were near thermal throttle

[carmine yew]

but also, if you replace a cooler and your CPU Temp goes from 80 down to 55

all that heat went somewhere, and the answer is: into the air

[grizzled frost]

Unless the power draw has increased, it's the same amount of heat

[shy saffron]

So basically im in a sweet spot at the moment

[carmine yew]

same amount generated yes

But where the heat actually is can change

[grizzled frost]

marginal difference, the specific heat of copper/aluminum/silicon is quite low

[trim gyro]

you're overestimating how much energy a heatsink can hold at a moment

[plain cypress]

Not my old Dell U2414H
All I wanted was USB/HDMI/DisplayPort

[trim gyro]

a 65W CPU using 65W will output 65W in heat

[grizzled frost]

your heatsink will saturate with heat in seconds, after that the difference is 0

[plain cypress]

Amazon reviews said the displayport MST was pretty jank on those Dells

[shy saffron]

With pbo, 7600x is pulling around 130 watts

[rigid fjord]

but a 65w tdp cpu doesn't draw 65w in power

[trim gyro]

you get the point

[south arrow]

Yes yiss

[grizzled frost]

okay? that's not exactly relevant

[plain cypress]

I cannot say I've ever purchased a display with any of those you mentioned, except USB hub

[south arrow]

You both make correct statements depending upon ones bios ❤️ 🐛

And what ones doing

[tidal geyser]

*more heat

Well tend to

[grizzled frost]

*only if the increase in cooling capacity results in increased power draw due to higher boost clocks

[south arrow]

Bubz can be right or tk or iroh or raukos or sims or 15ice

[tidal geyser]

Well considering modern cpu are meant to boost until they reach max temp

[grizzled frost]

or till they reach max boost clock

[tidal geyser]

Or power draw

[south arrow]

Right right

[grizzled frost]

or another limit like voltage, or power draw

[south arrow]

Lots of variables sprinkled with a few constants

[civic crypt]

hey guys im looking for some advice regarding upsirens u6 pro thermal putty lol. ive seen a lot of discourse online and im now even more confused.
i originall bought it from computer systems fr on amazon but after watching a vid i was told that its a clone and its worse so didnt use it.

i then bought it from middle9s store on aliexpress but way underestimated how much i needed so i ordered more, have now read that the CSGR one is the original?

can i go ahead and use the amazon one or not? 😧

[rough wing]

Can someone help me in #1395175109249077421 please. I’ve been working on this non stop for over 2 days idk what to do

[carmine yew]

wtf are you using thermal putty for

normal users don't use thermal putty

[civic crypt]

probably shouldve mentioned that mb. its for my zotac trinity 3080ti

this card is notorious for horrible pads afaik

[carmine yew]

buy better pads?

[civic crypt]

yeah i was going to do that but read multiple people suggesting putty

[carmine yew]

Odds are any halfway decent putty would be better than shitty pads, so go ahead and try it

[steep heath]

im trying to be able to find a case, thats horizontal and works with my system, that fits front to back at least between the feet of 15 3/8 any reccomendations for the case, ? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/R39xqH

[civic crypt]

i also bought a phasesheet for the die if needs be but my gpu temps are fine, its just memory is toasty

[carmine yew]

well, you need to repaste if you're removing the cooler to putty it, so use the PTM

[civic crypt]

does it need to be cut to size or anything, i have 0 experience with ptm

ill look at some vids ofc

[tidal geyser]

105c?

[carmine yew]

https://youtu.be/2BhKx0iQ4K8?t=321

[civic crypt]

it reached 96c very quickly after launching a game, which i wasnt comfortable with

[dapper pike]

Yo anybody know why Every time i buy a new keyboard the buttons stop working after a couple days what could be the cause?

[hollow silo]

I remember when AIO liquid cooler first became a thing, a lot of people worried about them leaking. How are they doing now? I don't think I've heard about any leakage news

[tidal geyser]

You

[ebon marlin]

I ordered an Aorus FO27Q2 but I'm pretty sure I was accidentally sent a 27Q2 with a 27Q3's panel

[tidal geyser]

I have heard of a lot

Mostly from the master leakers tho

But most of em die due to find being blocked or just pump dying

Or impeller

[ebon marlin]

27Q2 is 240hz and 27Q3 is 360hz and for some reason I have the option to enable 360hz even though my monitor should only be able to do 240hz

[carmine yew]

people worry about everything new, but overall leaking has never really been a problem

[carmine yew]

the cooler master was mostly notorious for turning the liquid to sludge and failing

[trim gyro]

like a silverstone ps15 or silverstone fara h1m

[true stirrup]

Free upgrade

[barren breach]

Ignore GPU, have a 5070ti otw in the mail. Does this look like a decent fan setup? In terms of positive pressure? 3 140s intake, 3 120s on the rad set to exhaust, and 1 140 set to exhaust on the rear. Im ordering new fans and not sure if I should add more for any reason

[shy saffron]

What time period is this?
I had a nepton 240m on a 6700k

[empty quartz]

Ratio

[carmine yew]

a while ago, it was the cooler master masterliquid something or other?

[trim gyro]

looks normal

[barren breach]

I uh. Ok

[shy saffron]

2016 to present - faced 0 trouble with the aio on 6700k
1 repaste of thermal paste

[plain cypress]

My 6500 used the same thermal paste 2015-2022

Twas fine

[keen stratus]

how do i fix this

[trim gyro]

my i7 2600 used the same thermal paste from 2011 to 2022 and it was fine

and then I took it apart

[empty quartz]

Re-make the installer

[carmine yew]

fucking hell:

AKAMAI has a problem in india

Me: (North of Boston) pulling out hair troubleshooting DNS issues

Sometimes I hate networking >.<

[keen stratus]

did

[empty quartz]

My macbook had thermal paste that was older than some people on this server

[keen stratus]

still the same

[carmine yew]

how did you make the install usb

[low abyss]

hi

[keen stratus]

rufus

[rigid fjord]

redo the installer

[carmine yew]

and you tried remaking it?

[empty quartz]

🤦‍♂️

[keen stratus]

yes

[carmine yew]

no rufus is good

[keen stratus]

tried

[empty quartz]

Make the installer with the windows media creation tool

[empty quartz]

Not for windows installers

[keen stratus]

does it work on legacy

[low abyss]

is there a way i could have universal clipboard across all my devices? i have a samsung phone, samsung tab and a windows laptop. I

[plain cypress]

What

[carmine yew]

I've had more trouble with Media Creation Tool than Rufus for windows usb's

[plain cypress]

Rufus is fine for windows installation media

[carmine yew]

not easily

[low abyss]

I've managed to use phone link to do windows to tab clipboard integration

[plain cypress]

Media creation tool is fine but oh my god is it slow

[steep heath]

a fara h1m, is not a horizontal case, also the ps15 isnt either?

[low abyss]

but unfortuantely u can only have 1 device connected at a time, so cant do with the phone

[plain cypress]

Or at least last time I tried like 2-3 years ago

[carmine yew]

there was a time when the MCT was so terrible that if your USB Drive had a " " (space) in the name of the drive, it'd outright fail and would NEVER tell you why

[rough ember]

guys we may have lift off!

my computer has the thrust power of a jet engine right now

[plain cypress]

As I've recently learned from here, don't use rufus to download windows...

Bro was here for hours waiting I swear

[carmine yew]

I just download it from the Microsoft site, since it's a free dl

[empty quartz]

Meow :3

[plain cypress]

Same
But some dude was downloading from Rufus for some reason and it was archaic speeds

[carmine yew]

yeah I was in on that convo lol

(although honestly I just leave the ISO on my PC, so whenever i need it, it's already there)

[plain cypress]

It takes longer to click all the buttons on the website than the actual download takes

[trim gyro]

I didn't know you can download windows through rufus

[clear canyon]

Neither did I. Is that a new thing?

[plain cypress]

I didn't till some guy popped in here having done it

No idea if it's new

Guilty was poking around and said Rufus doesn't make it very clear you can do that

[carmine yew]

wtf discord

[carmine yew]

nah, been around for ages

[clear canyon]

Huh, that's neat

[carmine yew]

but it's easier to download from MS and then just use the ISO in rufus, that way if something gets borked? no re-download

[nocturne kiln]

I had Windows 10 rot by these two JPEGs on Tumblr and Amazon back in April 2018 and November/December 2020,
and it turns out my PC's Windows Explorer froze when it encountered the first one (on the left) in the hard disk.
It also froze when it displayed it in my Tumblr timeline back in 2018, and I felt maybe the JPEG was opening an EXE for someone to snoop on my PC to see what's on it while it had been frozen (like a zombie for some sort of botnet).
☣️ (edited-in-Paint quarantined versions are shown here.) ☣️
The one on the right seemed to contribute to slow, laggy right-click menus on both Windows 7 and Windows 10.
It really reminds me of that one WAN Show moment where Luke talked about cryptominers on the episode where NCIX went bankrupt.

Thoughts?

[carmine yew]

was talking to one of the managers at work who reported the internet problem:

"So, it turns out Akamai was having a problem in India and that's what caused us to have internet issues here."

I've never heard of Akamai, what is that?

"They're one of the companies that literally runs the internet."

Huh, no kidding. How'd you figure that out?

[carmine yew]

Filthy weeb 😛

[nocturne kiln]

Didn't even actively get into DokiDoki Literature Club, and yet a piece of fanart increased hard disk usage

locking up explorer as if it was a cryptominer

[carmine yew]

it's entirely possible it was a virus

[nocturne kiln]

Who knew JPEGs could hold viruses?

[carmine yew]

<-- Haruhime from Danmachi (so yeah, i'm also a weeb)

Anything can hold viruses. File Extensions don't really mean much

[nocturne kiln]

Considering it was an innocuous Tumblr post that had the DDLC fanart, and an Amazon listing that had the Momotaro Densetsu (IIRC) cover art, it's possible that some third-party entity intercepted them with a virus or some other malicious code.

Steganography invading reputable sites.

Gizmodo only wrote about steganography and this type of hijacking crap in this 2022 article, two years after the Amazon mishap, and four years after Tumblr had it.
https://gizmodo.com/malware-images-virus-photos-pictures-how-block-antiviru-1849572516

And they even mention cryptominers hiding in images

[pearl pebble]

is there a possibility that what is causing my horrible temps is that one of the 4 screws around my CPU is not well tightened?

my temp just hit 95c 💀

[trim gyro]

it is a possibility

[pearl pebble]

so do i just tighten them?

how do i know i am not gonna snap the mobo lol

[nocturne kiln]

Maybe.
Could be an issue with the thermal paste not working correctly, too.

[idle vessel]

you may as well tighten them

[nocturne kiln]

If it won't hurt it, do it.

[pearl pebble]

welp

[nocturne kiln]

at least unless the mobo is brittle

[pearl pebble]

illl try that, ty

its a cheapish one

gigabyte b something

[idle vessel]

brittle mobo in 2025

[nocturne kiln]

How worn-out does a mobo need to be to count as too delicate and brittle for some things?

Maybe certain weather conditions?

[pearl pebble]

ill tighten it by 1mm

[idle vessel]

how do you wear out a motherboard dude

[pearl pebble]

that should do it lol

[idle vessel]

you don’t use it as a cutting board or something

[pearl pebble]

1mm on every screw

[idle vessel]

i’m sure it’ll be fine

[nocturne kiln]

I'm just guessing, because I don't know.

[idle vessel]

Try tightening the one u said wasn’t tight man

[nocturne kiln]

Maybe regular servicing of the PC, but I guess it wears the screw holes and solder joints, but not that much.

[idle vessel]

that will not cause your motherboard to snap from tightening screws reasonably

[pearl pebble]

idk if ANY of them are not tight

[idle vessel]

just tighten them

[nocturne kiln]

I guess most mobos are too durable to be ruined by that much wear

if you drill them, they could break, but no sane person would do that.

[pearl pebble]

alr

[nocturne kiln]

at least not to insase degrees.

[pearl pebble]

(not now cuz mid game)

[gloomy sleet]

when gmk67

[carmine yew]

your screws should not be wearing out the motherboard

[idle vessel]

realforce r1 has not arrived yet

[carmine yew]

the holes are bigger than the screws are

Hey so I am building a PC and was looking at microcenter's deal for a ryzen 5 9600x w/ 16gb ddr5 for 270. I just saw another bundle for a ryzen 7 7700x w/ 32gb ddr5 + a bit higher quality mobo for 350. Is that price difference worth going for the 7700x or is the 9600x just better

[idle vessel]

ripster55 please speed up the delivery of my realforce 87usd 10th

ripster55 probably isn’t the topre god but he’s just the only notable name i thought of

[gloomy sleet]

lmao

[idle vessel]

pretty sure he got exiled from geekhack

[idle vessel]

get 32gb ddr5

[haughty compass]

Bundle 1
https://www.microcenter.com/product/5006992/amd-ryzen-5-9600x,-asus-prime-b650m-a,-gskill-flare-x5-series-16gb-ddr5-6000,-computer-build-bundle

Bundle 2
https://www.microcenter.com/product/5006968/amd-ryzen-7-7700x,-gigabyte-b650-gaming-x-ax-v2,-gskill-flare-x5-series-32gb-ddr5-6000-kit,-computer-build-bundle

[idle vessel]

i’d say 9600x is better than a 7700x but negligible

[west furnace]

Can someone help me with tech support

[haughty compass]

I can get more ram down the line. Just care about price to performance for mobo & CPU cus I prob won't upgrade those for a while

[idle vessel]

it’ll cost you significantly more down the line

you will have to buy a 32gb kit or a second 16gb kit and then you lose dual channel

[haughty compass]

A single stick of ddr5 is like $50

[idle vessel]

7700x & 9600x perform nearly identically

[idle vessel]

Okay

also depends on the stick lol

[haughty compass]

Is this listing worth it for $95

[grizzled frost]

ask him why there’s only 3 dimms

i guarantee you that slot is dead

[plain cypress]

How did they end up with 3 matching sticks lol

[plain cypress]

As long as it's 1 slot not a big deal
But if it's a dead slot they should be able to ask for a little discount

[grizzled frost]

that’s where i was headed, yeah

1.5dpc is crazy though

positive integers only please

[plain cypress]

How much is shipping

[carmine yew]

I'd probably get the 7700x myself? But either would be good.

It's about 40$ different when you balance out the RAM between the two bundles

[haughty compass]

6.45

[carmine yew]

in most titles the 7700x and 9600x are pretty similar for gaming, but if you run into a title that wants more than 6 cores, the 7700x will have an advantage

[plain cypress]

Offer them $90? Even if one slot is dead I think it's not an issue if it's just the slot

[plain cypress]

There's a small chance their cooler didn't fit with the 4th stick and they just...got rid of it? Seems unlikely tho

[haughty compass]

The thing is they have to offer me cus I have a $25 coupon that gets it to that price 😭

[undone bobcat]

Gentlemen (and ladies), I have a dilemma. Do I;

Keep my Ryzen 7 1800X and keep windows 10 (Windows 11 doesn't support 1st Gen Ryzen)
OR
Buy a 2700X or similar, to enable me to get Windows 11

For context, I really don't need a new CPU, just don't want the security risk after October

[plain cypress]

What

[steel umbra]

7600x & 9600x*

[plain cypress]

They have to send the buyer an offer?

[idle vessel]

nope i definitely meant 7700x

[carmine yew]

the bundles are 7700x and 9600x

[haughty compass]

Coupons don't work if u am send an offer

[idle vessel]

Linux

[plain cypress]

Ehhh $95 is fine then

[idle vessel]

joking

[plain cypress]

I see, use the coupon

[undone bobcat]

I don't have the balls lmao

[carmine yew]

https://youtu.be/IeBruhhigPI
The 7700x and 9600x are generally pretyt close to each other

[idle vessel]

just bypass the win11 hardware requirements if you really need win11

[gloomy sleet]

true

[idle vessel]

it’s not difficult

[gloomy sleet]

also 1800x is in the requirements

[undone bobcat]

That's what I was thinking as an alternative

[plain cypress]

Ryzen 5 3600?

[undone bobcat]

'tis not

[carmine yew]

I mean at this point, I'd get a used 5600 (x) for an upgrade, it'd be WORLDS different

[haughty compass]

How does the performance of the i5 11600kf compare to ryzen 5 9600x?

[gentle kestrel]

if you install 11 ltsc you can get updates without bypassing any install requirements

you would have to handle activation on your own though

[gloomy sleet]

it is

[idle vessel]

pirate it

[gloomy sleet]

you dont need to bypass it its supported

[steel umbra]

the second bundle with 7700x is more useable out of the box with the 2x16gb kit instead of just a single 16gb

[carmine yew]

Win11 LTSC doesn't have the hardware reqs? 0.o

[gentle kestrel]

it does not

[distant frigate]

Yesss let’s gooo. Got the eagle artillery to finish building

[idle vessel]

thought it was 2 8gb lol

[idle vessel]

wrong server i think

[gentle kestrel]

ltsc will run on anything

[steel umbra]

so is 7600x and 9600x

[undone bobcat]

It starts at the 2700

[carmine yew]

ryzen 1000 is not on the supported list:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/supported/windows-11-supported-amd-processors

[undone bobcat]

Is Windows 11 even worth it though?

[steel umbra]

7700x has 2 more cores that are decently better than the 9600x in multicore workloads

[plain cypress]

run on anything
Okay, try a power PC Mac pro

[idle vessel]

no

[gloomy sleet]

it isnt?

[gentle kestrel]

zen+ and up

[haughty compass]

So the performance of the 7700x and 9600x would be similar in CPU heavy games like cs, fortnite or valorant?

[gloomy sleet]

i never had to do anything to get my 1500x build to work

[vernal wolf]

Im using an RGB heatsink on 2 RAM sticks for aesthetics (ddr5), but I want to have all 4 slots filled. No dummy sticks will work because then the RGB will look different. Can I install 2 low memory sticks (like a 2x8 kit) and disable those in BIOS and attach the RGB heatsinks to those? (My other RAM is G.Skill 128gb and my motherboard is the MSI PRO X870E-P WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard)

[idle vessel]

yes

[clear canyon]

Why would you buy a 2700x???????

[carmine yew]

I gave you the microsoft link right there

[clear canyon]

Go ryzen 5000

[undone bobcat]

My only thought is that my CPU doesn't even really need upgrading, would it make a huge amount of difference if mine doesn't really get worked that hard?

[south arrow]

[carmine yew]

from Ryzen 1000 to 3000 or 5000 is a huge bump in performance

[gentle kestrel]

even in gpu heavy games you'll see a sizeable boost

[plain cypress]

It'll make your PC last even longer

[undone bobcat]

Just the next closet and cheapest (kinda) alternative

[gentle kestrel]

5600x would be a great pick i agree

[sweet zephyr]

What do yall like of my new phone

[undone bobcat]

This is a fantastic point

[clear canyon]

Its a massive waste of money

[gentle kestrel]

5700(x) if you need the 8 core still

[plain cypress]

Sure, you don't need more performance today
But what about next year? 2 years? 5 years?

[undone bobcat]

Duly noted, I'll see what ebay is saying

[carmine yew]

NOT the 5700 non-X

Only the 5700X

[plain cypress]

I cannot recommend 5700 non-x

[idle vessel]

what even is that

this picture sucks

[gentle kestrel]

is that one of those apu ones

[sweet zephyr]

Not my fault my phone sucks

[gentle kestrel]

my fault then i fogot amd does that

[undone bobcat]

May I ask why

[sweet zephyr]

It's a steamdeck

[plain cypress]

APU with bad iGPU so graphics disabled

[idle vessel]

get better lighting?

[gentle kestrel]

yeah nevermind

[carmine yew]

it's slower and has half of the cache of the 5700X

The 5700G is the APU

[sweet zephyr]

No

[plain cypress]

It's neutered

[idle vessel]

it’s not hard to turn a light on man

[gentle kestrel]

5700x then

[steel umbra]

also the 7700x bundle has a better motherboard, prime b650’s suck compared to competition expect for the b650m-a ii wifi

[plain cypress]

5600 and 5600x are both fine

[idle vessel]

yeah that’s why i recommended it

[plain cypress]

5700 is the only one to watch out for using naming conventions

[barren breach]

Speaking of am4

[idle vessel]

i wish all tech was named for children

[carmine yew]

so is the 5600XT

[idle vessel]

would make life easier

[barren breach]

How will a 5800x pair with a 9070xt

[rigid fjord]

do not ever suggest a 5700, that fucker is a 5700g minus it's igpu

[clear canyon]

What resolution

[carmine yew]

the 9070 will leave a 5800 in the dust generally

[plain cypress]

Oh yeah I forgot AMD did those

[gentle kestrel]

yeah we established that i thought it was vermeer like 2 min ago

forgot amd is a garbage company

[carmine yew]

I mean there's only like 8 different 5600's or something

[plain cypress]

Bin of a bin of a bin of a bin

[undone bobcat]

Thank you gentlemen, you have been very helpful and it's very much appreciated

[barren breach]

He wants to run 1440p, I told him I think he should probably just go am5 if he wants a 9070xt. He planned on getting a 5080, and for what he does I suggested a 9070xt and with the leftover money go am5

[plain cypress]

So what are you getting

[clear canyon]

He can get away with it

[gentle kestrel]

i'd probably take zen 3 + 5080 over zen 5 + 9070 xt personally

[undone bobcat]

I think I'm gunna go with 5600x when I get a few £££

[carmine yew]

5600, 5600X, 5600XT, 5600G, 5600GT, 5600T....

like... come the fuck on AMD, we fuckin' get it

[plain cypress]

Sounds good

[gentle kestrel]

rather have dlss and better pt at that high end of a card

[undone bobcat]

It's not a whole lot more expensive than the 2700x I was going to get lol

[clear canyon]

I have a 5700g and its ok lol

It does its job

[plain cypress]

They should be fairly cheap on used market
And get 5600 or 5600x, whichever is less

[barren breach]

He currently has a 3060ti with that 5800x, Wanted to get the 5080 to pair with the 5800x. I said get 9070xt for 1440p and use leftover cash to go with a mid tier AM5 chip for “future proofing”

[carmine yew]

I've got a few mini PCs at work with 5700G or 5600G's

[undone bobcat]

Yeah they're like £80-90 on ebay here in the UK

[gentle kestrel]

i don't really think the 5800x would hold back the 5080 much

[clear canyon]

Its not that good of a gaming cpu now days

But its not the worst

[carmine yew]

it absolutely would, especially at not-4k

[gentle kestrel]

yeah but you're losing like ~20% gpu perf to get a midrange am5 setup

[idle vessel]

i love how 99% of the support in this channel is just guesses

[barren breach]

So what would be a good am5 chip to pair with a 9070xt

[idle vessel]

9800x3d

[barren breach]

Isnt that extreme overkill

[clear canyon]

7600x, 7600, 9600x, 9600

[gentle kestrel]

kinda yeah

[idle vessel]

do you have a budget

[barren breach]

I mean I dont necessarily think he does but I cant imagine he wants to spend more than $700 on a cpu+mobo+ram

[carmine yew]

very

[icy rain]

Is PCIe 5 ( GPU) is very important?

[carmine yew]

Ryzen 5 or Ryzen 7 7000 or 9000 (not x3d, that's overkill)

[frigid blade]

better over than under in this case

[carmine yew]

not currently

[frigid blade]

no

[clear canyon]

No

[idle vessel]

asks for good am5 cpu
gives good am5 cpu
Too good

[icy rain]

Should I take a mb with ?

[carmine yew]

today? yes.

[frigid blade]

most even high end cards get a 1% preformance loss using gen4 x8 instead of x16, or comparable to gen3 x16

[clear canyon]

Yes bc of storage

[carmine yew]

yes, it's 200$ more than he needs to spend on a CPU

[icy rain]

Okay then what model in b850 ?

[idle vessel]

he asks for good i give good Oh no

[clear canyon]

Low end cards like the 6500xt and rx 6400 lose alot of peformance with not optimal pcie gen/lanes

[idle vessel]

put a budget in the message

[carmine yew]

B850 are perfectly solid.

Find one with the I/O you need and you'l probably be happy.

[barren breach]

I said a good pair with a 9070xt, not “get best 9950x3d”

[gentle kestrel]

yeah the x3d is most of the cost of the gpu they're shopping for

[idle vessel]

fun fact: b650m pg lightning wifi’s ethernet card does not have a linux driver

[barren breach]

Balance

[gentle kestrel]

one can kinda infer a 7700x would be more in line with that

[carmine yew]

okay, and?

[idle vessel]

9800x3d is a great pair

[barren breach]

What about a 7 5800xt

[idle vessel]

it’s a fun fact man

there is no and

[gentle kestrel]

that's just a 5800x

[idle vessel]

that isn’t am5

[gentle kestrel]

not worth buying another small upbin

[carmine yew]

what does a B650 board have to do with the B850 boards we were talking about?

[barren breach]

Brain left window

[idle vessel]

it’s a fun fact brother

[gentle kestrel]

that fun fact wasn't even right

[idle vessel]

it is right man

[gentle kestrel]

RTL8125B (which it's based on) is in tree already

[idle vessel]

i own that motherboard

no ethernet card driver

[gentle kestrel]

was merged in 5.9, skill issue at this point

[idle vessel]

Does not work

No Driver

[idle vessel]

yep it’s a skill issue guys

i’ll go learn c and write my own driver

[pearl pebble]

ok so i did 2 things:

• tried to tighten the screwsbut they were already pretty tight
• clean the fan with compressed air

i think that cleaning it lowered the temps a bit

stil not great tho

git doesn't lie, it is a distro config/skill issue

[idle vessel]

brother it does not work

across many distros

i have tried many things

i can promise you i am right and you are wrong and that is Okay

i own the motherboard and you do not

Some people have told me that I shouldn't use above 6000 speed but this is the only 2x64 kit that has matching dummy ram so my aesthetics look nic

[icy rain]

What b850 motherboard is good ?

[hidden rune]

hey, could i ask for some help?

[trim gyro]

a lot of them

[raven scroll]

📆

Hello humans of discord

[left dove]

oh thats cool

the calendar emoji updates for the day

[raven scroll]

No it doesn’t

[trim gyro]

I think every motherboard in stock in the us pcpp for b850 are good enough for average user https://pcpartpicker.com/products/motherboard/#c=169&sort=price&page=1

[fringe prairie]

id go for b850 pg riptide or pro-a wifi
else b650 aorus elite ax

[raven scroll]

That emoji just only makes sense for 17th July

Limited time offer ahh emoji

[pearl pebble]

interesting, iirc discord uses twemoji?

or probably the fork now after musk fuck laid off the maintainer https://github.com/jdecked/twemoji

[royal stone]

is a 5tb ssd worth it

[left dove]

do you mean a 4tb ssd

[royal stone]

idk tbh does 5tb not exst

[left dove]

Not outside of like, fringe cases in enterprise or something homebrew..

[plain cypress]

We ballin'

[royal stone]

ah i see, tbh i just need storage badly, running a 1tb hardrive and like a 300gb ssd

[grave musk]

How do I even fix this

The hinge decided it had enough and popped out of the bottom of the screen and I can't afford another one. Is there a way to stuff this back in and pretend it never happened?

[royal stone]

is 250 alot for a 4tb ssd?

[fringe prairie]

no

[left dove]

Is it also compatible with your pc

[royal stone]

why would it not be geniunely curious

[left dove]

How new is your pc, do you know if it has an m.2 slot on the motherboard

[royal stone]

ye it does i curently have my 300gb ssd in there

[left dove]

Then go for it

[vernal wolf]

Can anyone check over my PC build and lmk if theres any changes I need to make, or additions I could add to improve aesthetics? (Going for a black and gold color theme) https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JWnkrM

[frigid blade]

its a lot in USD

amazon has the mp44l 4tb at $240

[charred kiln]

Replace 9950X3D with 9800X3D

[frigid blade]

nvm its out of stock

[vernal wolf]

not worth it imo bc im getting a bunfle from microcenter and its a rlly good deal for the 9950x3d

the bundle for the 9800x3d is slightly cheaper but the mobo is a lot worse so its not rlly worth it

[true stirrup]

Do you actually need the extra features of that motherboard?

[fringe prairie]

do you need 128gb ram or the 9950x3d?
also go for this 5070ti model instead: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/mTm2FT/zotac-solid-sff-oc-geforce-rtx-5070-ti-16-gb-video-card-zt-b50710j3-10p

If you have a crimping tool and ever want to mess with your fellow network engineers...

X · Jul 17, 2025, 5:57 PM

Why. Just why

[vernal wolf]

I need the RAM amount and the CPU, and I already got a 5070ti I managed to snag it for 750 i js have that there cause its whats in my build

[vernal wolf]

It supports pcie 5.0 and I know I will need to get more storage in the next 2-3 yrs and im hoping that by then gen 5 ssd's come down in price

people have also said it supports overclocking better which I am planning on doing to my GPU

[gentle kestrel]

be aware with the p41 platnium that you need to update the firmware asap

there's a bug that disables the slc write cache

so the drive will just halve in speed if you dont patch it

wonder if LTT needs a KUKA KR 500

[mental mural]

7500f for 122£ on ali
7700 for 184£ on ali
is it worth the extra 60£???

[carmine yew]

if you need the 2 extra cores? yes

[true stirrup]

Only for ram and maybe CPU
It has absolutely nothing to do with the GPU

[plain cypress]

"I don't see the Probl- Ohhhhhh"

[gloomy sleet]

i’m good lil bro

[true stirrup]

Also it's not like you can OC an x3D CPU far and you are on AM5 so you can't OC ram that far as well for it to be worth it

[rigid fjord]

the pound symbol always goes before the numbers not after

Or tilt it backwards

I love brittle plastic

Lol I like mine organised 🙂

[gentle kestrel]

is the gpu a 4070 super or something

that might make the price fair

[gloomy sleet]

no

[peak knot]

i dont get the luxory

[gloomy sleet]

that’s a rx 470

those monitors are 27” 1080p 60hz too

I'm trying to figure out why I need avb on my preamp and the image is on the Wikipedia article 😭

[gloomy sleet]

470s are like £30 on ebay

[pseudo heart]

What is the minimum SSD storage I would be able to get away with for a PC made just for streaming?

[swift moss]

I want to use this overpowered MCU for my HDMI earc receiver lol

[gentle kestrel]

if it's just running obs a 128gb ssd would do it

[high lance]

Hey so I turned off my pc but there is still like fans and rgb stuff still on

[swift moss]

4 arm cores, 2.3tops npu, pcie 3, and a hifi DSP (which I will use)

[pseudo heart]

Probably Twitch and OBS

[swift moss]

All for the amazing price of 39usd

[gentle kestrel]

unless you're saving vods/recording to it then you barely need any storage

[pseudo heart]

Alright. Thank you.

[night coral]

Does anyone know what case fans these are? I find them really cool

I have a slight issue with my switch 2 dock if someone might be able to help. I have it plugged in at my friends place and the light on the dock keep flashing green and no power is going to the system and no output to the tv. Anyone got any idea what’s going on?

[pseudo heart]

Have you brought an activation key yet?

[night coral]

^ dont

[unreal bramble]

If your pc is able to support windows 11 home

Other wise windows 10 home

[fathom mesa]

Nope

[plain cypress]

Never bothered to figure out what N is tbh, but just select "windows 10 home"

[late path]

Would you be able to play doom on a southbridge

[tidal geyser]

lighter version i think

[carmine yew]

apparently N doesn't include media player and a few other things
(Odd choice, but that's what it is)

[fathom mesa]

Skype.
Danm

[unreal bramble]

Blame Europe

[late path]

Would you be able to play doom on a southbridge :3

[carmine yew]

remember when Skype mattered?

I know it's something we Estonians could brag about

[left dove]

yea i member

they might as well go with the pro version tbh

it's basically pro version but for student use

Don't censor your words, you take power away from them

you fucking prick

[tardy scarab]

is it normal for 9000 series to boost as often as possible i disabled pbo and my 9700x goes to 5.5ghz even when doing basic stuff

[carmine yew]

fuck that noise

[tardy scarab]

and it ramps all the fans up first time on 9000 series

[carmine yew]

yes

[clear canyon]

Sure, you should sell it so that there is no more issues coming from it 😀

[clear canyon]

Perhaps

[tardy scarab]

its quite obnoxious though why does it have to go to 5.5ghz when im opening an app ?

[rigid fjord]

fuckity fuck fuck fuck fuckity

cpu is processing so more ghz is more better

[plain cypress]

This is how computers work

[carmine yew]

fix your fan curve

[tardy scarab]

my 5700x didnt sound anythin like this

[plain cypress]

Oh he means noise my b

[carmine yew]

fix your fan curve

[plain cypress]

The CPU itself doesn't make a noise

[clear canyon]

You forgot to take a fuck out as i dont have a fucking fuck to fucking give

[fathom mesa]

Chat something that's been bothering me for a while is when I look at like a random object in-game suddenly the screen just shuts off while I'm looking at it

[tardy scarab]

fix it in what way please

[rigid fjord]

https://tenor.com/view/myfield-barren-fucks-i-give-gif-14948396

[tardy scarab]

right now it comes on at 55c

[fathom mesa]

Like for example
Minecraft stone does it semi often

[carmine yew]

https://youtu.be/Fg-5BAfSkE4?si=osFYy-lpIkOr1UuE

[normal blade]

I got a trade offer for my 13 Pro Max for an S21 Ultra + $210 cash, is it a good trade for me?

[fathom mesa]

Also when a game makes the screen fade to white it does it too sometimes

Do y'all know anything that could be causing that?

[carmine yew]

fix the curve in your bios

or whatever app your board uses if you're using it

[rigid fjord]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0TWTnYZBdM

[tardy scarab]

fix it how though it can go all the way to 65 just installing an app

[carmine yew]

adjust the fan curve so that it doesn't ramp up too high too quickly

[tardy scarab]

can i use fancontrol for this so i can do it without going in bios

[carmine yew]

probably

[tidal geyser]

going into the bios takes like 10sec

[plain cypress]

S21U is nearing EOL isn't it?

iPhone 13 still has a few more years...

[tardy scarab]

i need to see how it sounds though i dunno how to fix it

[brave brook]

define EOL. It still gets updates i think

[tardy scarab]

i dont fuk with curves mine doesnt have silent options have to do it myself

tomahawk 😩

[brave brook]

ah nevermind, Android 15 was the last one for S21

[tidal geyser]

takes like 10 sec

[tardy scarab]

how do i fix it though

less pwm % at the same temp ?

[tidal geyser]

well yea?

[tardy scarab]

i will try that

[tidal geyser]

then do 80% at 95c

[tardy scarab]

my whole system should be gigacool my cooler is overkill

but i didnt know this ramps up so much to max boost

[carmine yew]

cpu's have done that for years now

your 5000 did it too

[tardy scarab]

that was so much quieter and was not optimised for cooling or noise whatsoever

[true stirrup]

Why two open water bottles?

[rapid coyote]

how are lian li AIOs?

shouldve brought the hot one to the fridge to swap them

[carmine yew]

that look on Linus' face says everything you need to know:

[carmine yew]

which one and how much

[clear canyon]

I do the same

[carmine yew]

If y'all think Linus is bad about dropping stuff, just watch the new 5K Upgrade video, holy shit

[clear canyon]

Oh no, dont spoil me

[carmine yew]

"I'm not looking, I'm not looking, I'm not looking!"

[clear canyon]

😛

[sly girder]

i have now fucking posted this shitty ass writen post in tech support if it makes you fucking happy @tidal geyser said i could swear

[clear canyon]

Child

[carmine yew]

you can fucking swear, jesus fuckin' christ

fuck that shit ass swearing, just say what you goddamned want to

[clear canyon]

🗣

[sly girder]

well i was warned by some bot on this server so please roast me for being carefull fuck face

[carmine yew]

lol, I've gotten well over 100 messages from the Warship

fuck you Warship

[clear canyon]

😛

[left dove]

Who pissed in your cheerios?

[normal blade]

One UI 7 is the last update for it yea

[rapid coyote]

in general

[carmine yew]

universals don't matter, specific models matter

[sly girder]

no one they wanted me to swear so bad. So i cramped as much garbage info into the message as i could

[normal blade]

But monetary value wise, is the 13pm(128gb) worth $210 more than an s21u(12/256)?

[sly girder]

is the warship the one to warn you i was warned by wick or somthin

[rapid coyote]

well i dont know, thats why im asking, because i expect that if there was one that was really good, someone would be like "yah, the galahad II is terrific" or vice versa be like "Hey don't get the hydroshift its garbage"

[carmine yew]

there's no bot here named wick

[sly girder]

btw there wheren no cheerios left

[sly girder]

hs there ever been

[tidal geyser]

just go air

[carmine yew]

not in the 4 years that i've been here

[south arrow]

Cursing is ok. Cursing at others is not ❤️ 🐛

[tidal geyser]

you come here ask for help cry when you do not get instant support and when you do you do not even want it

[south arrow]

So i can say sim has sick fucking builds

But not that sims a sick fuck

[left dove]

i mean he is

[carmine yew]

in general they're good

But they also have models that are hilariously overpriced and not worth it, so, that matters

[left dove]

gaming outside and all

[south arrow]

Lol hes a good noodle

[carmine yew]

man, fuck @tidal geyser 😛

[carmine yew]

pats @left dove on the head

[late path]

Did you know that worm is talented at sax 🎷🐛

[tidal geyser]

ofc taken earlier today now its dark

[south arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/psh-noway-gif-15870360

[left dove]

[rapid coyote]

...like which ones? If i wanted one, what would you recommend?

[elder quarry]

What the holy hell is happening here

[fringe prairie]

no not at all

[elder quarry]

Usual tc1 moment

[late path]

Direct sunlight and gamer parts don't mix

[carmine yew]

absolute nonsense

[plain cypress]

Personally cannot recommend trading an actively supported phone for an EOL phone

[elder quarry]

Yeah

[rapid coyote]

but mah aesthetics

[tidal geyser]

get a good looking air cooler then

[elder quarry]

Oh and like 4 different topics now?

[tidal geyser]

last time i did it i got sunburnt

[carmine yew]

rule of thumb: If you spend more than about 125USD on a new AIO? you're doing something wrong

[late path]

AIOs have gotten cheap as fuck haven't they

[sly girder]

now thats a problem

[carmine yew]

they range from around 50/60 usd to around 400 or 500, depending

[tidal geyser]

well yea but high end ones WITH screens are like 90$

[late path]

why need a screen

[tidal geyser]

i dono but they do

[carmine yew]

is prettier

[late path]

I don't understand RGB or screen hype icl

[carmine yew]

more tech = moar cooler

[tidal geyser]

the thing i do not understand is how a pc looks

its a tool not a statue

[carmine yew]

can be both

[tidal geyser]

you do not put gold on your hammer

nor rgb

[tardy scarab]

This is the fan curve atm is this bad

[elder quarry]

Glass Side panels 😂

[rapid coyote]

would if i could

[tidal geyser]

100% at like 60c?

[tidal geyser]

what

[carmine yew]

it can absolutely be both:
https://youtu.be/N-z9PidYH4E?si=Dxc2wPxQ9QBgkD1J

[tardy scarab]

It’s 68% ?

It’s on the right all the info

[rapid coyote]

rgb my hammer

[tidal geyser]

what tmep is dis at

[elder quarry]

Do it then

[tardy scarab]

Sorry I don’t know much about fan curves the ones I’ve seen most have silent presets mine doesn’t

[tardy scarab]

I should just lower the pwm’s and see what happens ?

[rapid coyote]

this is how im shopping for my cooler

[tidal geyser]

well yea but i mean that guy has enough money to buy a 5090 pc without even noticing it, most people have a budget and a small one and when they focus on good looks it makes me die on the inside

[rapid coyote]

except now in dark mode

[tidal geyser]

that is not pcpartpicker

[rapid coyote]

correct it is not

[tidal geyser]

silent does almost nothing

why not

[carmine yew]

it was funnier when he dumped the PC into the pond

[rapid coyote]

because i didnt type in "pcpartpicker.com"

[tidal geyser]

there really is only pcpartpicker

[random gyro]

guys what phone is better Nothing or Samsung

[tidal geyser]

kill me

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/crowpunk-cheese-challenge-repost-to-cheese-cat-cheese-cat-gif-4123783956472567463

[random gyro]

what

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/grito-ahhhh-hongo-gif-20006750

[tidal geyser]

no the nothing phone 1 sucks ass against the S25u

[random gyro]

nothing phone 3a

[tidal geyser]

what

or do you mean your buying the company

[random gyro]

no

they make a Nothing Phone 3A'

[tidal geyser]

samsung is ofc way way bigger and ofc not really possible for anyone to buy

[tidal geyser]

nothing should only be a few billion

[random gyro]

what

[tardy scarab]

is this better do u think

[random gyro]

i meant buying the phone

[tidal geyser]

you were asking what company to buy

[tidal geyser]

95c

last one 95c

the cpu is meant to do that

[tardy scarab]

What do u think about the case fans reacting to the cpu temp or the system temp

[tidal geyser]

cpu temp

[abstract wigeon]

i have my case fans on gpu temp

my cpu barely moves

[tidal geyser]

cant do that in the bios my guy

[abstract wigeon]

this is true

fan control my beloved

[tidal geyser]

also i prefer against it due to how software reliant it is

[abstract wigeon]

oh?

im yet to have any issues, set the curves one day and forgot about it

[tidal geyser]

yea but its kinda just something i prefer

[abstract wigeon]

completely fair

[tidal geyser]

it can work but i have seen at times it can be wonky with safety limits if you do something wrong

[abstract wigeon]

i typically dislike having a mass of software to control hardware stuff aswell but fan controll is too nice not to use

hate rgb control apps for the most part cus they are never reliable

openrgb is the only good one ive used, turned off all my rgb and deleted it

[tardy scarab]

What about undervolting does that help temps

[tidal geyser]

are you at 95c?

[tardy scarab]

it gets up to 67c just booting up is that normal

[tidal geyser]

again have you seen it go to 95c

[tardy scarab]

i haven’t done anything remotely intensive so no I will run a cinebench now though

it’s already got into 70s just installing programs. I just built system and did fresh install

[tidal geyser]

unless you are at 95c you are not losing performance

[rapid coyote]

goddamn i almost trusted chatgpt, what is happening

[tardy scarab]

it’s not performance I’m bothered about that’s why I got 9700x and not something better I wanted it nice n quiet

My cooler is 10x overkill for the cpu it’s not as quiet as I hope

[tidal geyser]

so lower the fan profile?

[tardy scarab]

the temps r still shooting up at medium speeds

[tidal geyser]

again unless its at 95c its not losing performance so you can just lower the fans until it goes to 94c

[robust trail]

GAMING

[tidal geyser]

no

[robust trail]

I duno

[tardy scarab]

oh I see wot u mean so just let it run hot but not 95

why is this running warmer than my 5700x that had a budget cooler. 1 exhaust. A shit non airflow case

[tidal geyser]

well its meant for 95c but at 94c your not losing even 0.1% performance

[tidal geyser]

way fatter IHS

fun fact almost all am4 coolers work on am5

[tardy scarab]

it was a 110m single fan cooler i now have royal pretor 130 matches 360mm aio’s .

Again like stupid overkill for a 9700x

[tidal geyser]

this is what real gaming looks like

[tidal geyser]

110mm is not a thing

[rapid coyote]

ah yes, cooling it by keeping it in the sun, very gaming

[tidal geyser]

how tight did you screw it down

[tidal geyser]

what do you think the box is for

[tardy scarab]

not tight just normal . I reinstalled it and same problem occurred I can try reseating cpu along with it

[rapid coyote]

where is the box in the first picture? huh? HUH?!

[tidal geyser]

it should be as hard as you can screw nby hand

[tidal geyser]

¨different pc too

[tardy scarab]

i built the pc I doubt I screwed it down wrong or the whole thing would be breaking haha

[tidal geyser]

anyways just lower the fan profile and fixed

[rapid coyote]

if you screwed it down with minimal pressure, its possible the thermal compound isnt contacting the entire surface of both the cpu and cooler plate

[tidal geyser]

the issue is that the thermalpaste is just not both ends

thermalpaste is not meant to be the thing that goes in between the cpu and cooler its meant to go into the cracks of the 2 surfaces but those surfaces also being as close as possible

thermal paste not thermal pad

[nimble herald]

Quick question, which channel should I message on if I need help with something

[rapid coyote]

#1027757333117415424

[tardy scarab]

I’m changing the paste I bought tf9 so I’ll reinstall it again anyway

[tidal geyser]

unless you build a pc

[nimble herald]

Thank you

[tidal geyser]

thermalpaste does almost nothing

but that time around do more pressure

[tardy scarab]

no I know I ran out but I will change it anyway since I will reinstall it again

[tidal geyser]

you do know you do not need to put on new paste

after taking it off right after putting paste on

can even do it a few days after

[tardy scarab]

it been 2 days

[tidal geyser]

then its fine

[rapid coyote]

arctic liquid freezer III 280mm, yay or nay

[tidal geyser]

go air

[rapid coyote]

no

[tardy scarab]

u can get my one supposed to match 360mm aio

[rapid coyote]

id get a 360mm arctic, but it wouldnt fit in the y60 that i want

[tardy scarab]

can’t get it then

[rapid coyote]

correct

[steel umbra]

yay

what’s the price?

[rapid coyote]

like 80 bucks

[tardy scarab]

u should really buy air cooler or u get a gigachad 360 aio

[rapid coyote]

#ignored

[tardy scarab]

air coolers r better than a 280mm

[steel umbra]

btw arctic sells refurb freezer iii 280mm’s for like 40

[rapid coyote]

i dont want an air cooler, i want the aesthetics of an AIO but the case i want only supports rads up to 30mm thick, the arctic is 38mm

[tidal geyser]

what cpu and gpu

[rapid coyote]

9800x3d, 3080ti

evga (rip) ftw3

[tidal geyser]

there is no 5080 ti nor have i heard any news of it

[soft radish]

Is this an fire hazard?

[tidal geyser]

what

[left dove]

what is it
