[latent pasture]

become total cheapite and make do with ur 1650
join the lossless scalings cult

[rigid fjord]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/tWMTwP/ this would be more of a better choice psu wise, and despite my dislike for nvidia, it's ffine

[latent pasture]

also 2k euro in what country

[rigid fjord]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/2VJgXL/ this is my suggestion for a ssd

[latent pasture]

ngl any suggestion is useless until we know the store
for all we know some xyz product cost $3000 in their region

[plain cypress]

I have the 4tb non-L SKU as cache for my server
It's been fine so far

[rare ingot]

these 3 headsets are within my budget, can anyone recommend which one to choose?

im not an audiophile but just wanting best value for money

[rigid fjord]

#audio-tech might be a better place to ask

[rare ingot]

I couldnt see that channel mb

[steel umbra]

i wouldn't any of these

[modern walrus]

HYPER X is a good option

[valid fiber]

brand of my choice is beyerdynamic when it comes to headphones

[modern walrus]

bro made hhim leavee the server😭

[valid fiber]

🤷‍♂️

[steel umbra]

nope

II was maybe ok at the time, III is garbage for the price

[modern walrus]

you havent given a good option yet while saying everything is garbage

[abstract wigeon]

can vouch for hyper x is bad

id avoid gaming headphones entirely tbh

unless you need the mic

[steel umbra]

they sound like $15 cans, you can find all the measurements on the internet and they'll confirm that they're mediocre, garbage for the price

it's hard to find good 2.4ghz headphones

i know of like g435 at $40 and audeze maxwell

[modern walrus]

still havent given a better alternative

[steel umbra]

i'd look for aptx / aptx ll headphones from sennheiser or such

[steel umbra]

g435

[modern walrus]

shoulda told them that before they left

[steel umbra]

their problem

[south arrow]

[steel umbra]

mini coffee time

[dapper light]

omaga turns out i have IPV6

[azure topaz]

most people do

[plush wren]

I don't

nvm i lied

[random gyro]

any reason why windows is being a piece of shit?

[plush wren]

what exactly is wrong

[random gyro]

i have more than 1 user but its not letting me log into the others

[plush wren]

idk

[random gyro]

im missing the 3 dots

[kindred halo]

The world knows what I need
How do GPU 4pin into PWM 4pin connectors even exist??

Like holy shit I just need one and some way to hold the Heatsink down

[grizzled frost]

they use the same pinout, just different physical connector

[kindred halo]

I know, but I didn't expect that an actual product for such a design is readily available

I can literally turn my 1050 Ti Heatsink into a cpu cooler

[south arrow]

Does it not allow you to click the drop down and delete the account?

Or selecting remove*

[kindred halo]

Should I use thermal plaster

And try to heatgun it off once required

Or tie it down

[junior forge]

Is it just me or is anyone else having trouble trynna sign into microsoft

[tidal geyser]

Like 50% of people do

[quasi field]

Guys… I’m bored af, give me some idea… what should I do with a 5090 (no not giving it away)

[grizzled frost]

I'll give you 3usd for it (technically not giving it away)

[quasi field]

Hmm, I’ll think about it

I wanted to somehow run the 5090 with a steam deck…

But I think I might instead run it on a optiplex

[rigid fjord]

sennheiser>

[plush wren]

Throw it in the ocean

and then test if it works

[uneven crescent]

What gpu is close to a ps5?

Cheap

[quasi field]

why ;-;

[latent pasture]

most test comparisons have it near like 3060 4060 region

[grizzled frost]

Rx6700 or 3060ti according to random people online

[rigid fjord]

6700xt

[tidal geyser]

Rx 6700

[uneven crescent]

Thanks

[tidal geyser]

Look at what I did

[grizzled frost]

wait i just processed what you said, you don't have a UPS?

[tidal geyser]

im in Norway baby

[grizzled frost]

oh so you have actually stable power

[valid fiber]

you tried to squeeze more performance out of that cable?

[tidal geyser]

fiber cable?

[tidal geyser]

do you think it still works?

[tidal geyser]

well there is lighting that should be coming down right about now

[valid fiber]

if it's copper probably yes

[tidal geyser]

i just said what it was

[grizzled frost]

fiber

[valid fiber]

well mmh i gues it's dead

[south arrow]

[tidal geyser]

maxes out my 500/500 internet connection

[tidal geyser]

yup i hear it now

[grizzled frost]

time to triangulate your location

[tidal geyser]

i keep forgetting to buy onions and garlic

[shell bay]

hello anyone here

[tidal geyser]

no

[edgy holly]

Yes

[tidal geyser]

he is faking

my lights just flickered

[edgy holly]

Not anymore

[glacial crypt]

Anyone played beamng with a 5070? Im considering buying one but no one benchmarks beamng lol

[tidal geyser]

wa

that game is cpu intensive?

[glacial crypt]

A CPU intensive game doesn’t only use the CPU

At its higher settings it can be pretty GPU heavy

[tidal geyser]

what gpu do you have now

[glacial crypt]

I just search up a 4070 Super benchmark in beamng and its not a whole lot better than my 3070 lol

Ill retest when I get home though because I dont run the ultra preset, I made lots of tweaks to it.

[swift kestrel]

so he has no idea what to do and did +2000mhz lmao

his discord crashed 20 seconds later

and joined on his phone lol

[tidal geyser]

well yea

[rigid fjord]

big oof, and thats on fibre isnt it?

[tidal geyser]

yus

[tidal geyser]

best part

i can see the fiber but it still works

https://tenor.com/view/elmo-thunder-gif-12003010808141082270

me rn

[shy schooner]

any way i can make my phone charge faster from my pc? i literally have no charging bricks at home

[near crag]

well running at stock speeds and memtest86 is passing so maybe this kit isn't bad after all

i think my IMC is really just trash on this 9950X3D

[sleek ibex]

[tulip sparrow]

https://youtu.be/rVFVm5H8LWs

[tidal geyser]

you plug it in?

[tidal geyser]

yay

[shy schooner]

at the beginning it says 1 hour until full charge then it says 6 hours 30 minutes

[sleek ibex]

6400 CL32?

On 2×48GB

[tidal geyser]

well yea

[near crag]

yep

[azure topaz]

says 5200

[tulip sparrow]

You RAM OC AKA DOCP might be unstable

[near crag]

and this kit is on the QVL at that speed

[azure topaz]

QVL means nothing

[near crag]

this is a 2nd test at stock speed

[azure topaz]

was 6400 in 1:1 or 2:1?

[tulip sparrow]

U0p the Memory Frequency little by little until you start getting issues then back off to the previous one that worked

[near crag]

1:1 using the default expo settings

[azure topaz]

yeah it’s not the ram

have you validated your chip can do 6400 1;1?

[tulip sparrow]

AKA RAM Might be stable on that MB+CPU combo at 6000 or 6200 but not the full 6400 for example

[azure topaz]

that’s not a guaranteed or even common thing

not fair to just keep rmaing kits if none of them are going to work

[tidal geyser]

when i sell my 7800x3d i will milk it for all its got

[near crag]

how would one validate that

[azure topaz]

especially without playing with some of the additional voltage settings

[near crag]

and yeah i'm not going to RMA this kit, it's clearly not bad

[azure topaz]

doing what you’re doing right now, aka, your chip can’t do 6400 1:1

[sleek ibex]

Zen 5 IMC isn't much better than Zen 4 unfortunately

[azure topaz]

if you want no fuss just set 6000 1:1

[tulip sparrow]

I am personally running 5800x3d+3200mhz CL16 LPX Ram and its working perfectly fine for me with DOCP/XMP active

[tidal geyser]

well its the same IMC?

[near crag]

iirc its the same

[azure topaz]

slightly higher on average binning

[near crag]

yea this is the shit i'm used to, just turn expo/xmp on and you're set

[rigid fjord]

it's basically like zen to zen + in improvements, so not really a surprise there

[tidal geyser]

almost like zen 5 is more modern

[azure topaz]

i’d expect more chips to do 6200 or something as an example

[near crag]

this is headache inducing

[azure topaz]

well that’s why he said “slightly better”

cause it is…slightly better….

[near crag]

if i recall correctly the IO die is actually just the same

uses the same older process node

[tidal geyser]

it is

[azure topaz]

yeah but as you make more you get better at it

[near crag]

yea

[azure topaz]

yea

that’s what we’re getting at here

[tidal geyser]

so modern zen 4 chips would then just be as good as modern zen 5 ey

[near crag]

this kit has a 6000mt/s profile will try that next

[azure topaz]

could be*

[azure topaz]

🫡

[near crag]

also might try this asus "DIMM Fit" tool in bios which is supposed to help tuning apparently

[azure topaz]

im confident in saying that will probably work

[azure topaz]

any auto tuning just skip

unless it’s for fans idk 💀but i don’t trust asus to make timing changes on my behalf

[near crag]

honestly this seems a little different

https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/asus-dimm-fit-dimm-fit-pro.336735/

[rigid fjord]

zen 6 will most likely do for am5 as zen 2 did initially for am4, that's if zen 6 is on am5 socket and not a newer one

[near crag]

it'll run for 5 hours changing all the values for you

https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/asus-dimm-fit-dimm-fit-pro.336735/post-5517157

[azure topaz]

but see to me, 5 hours isn’t enough

i don’t trust asus to validate a mem profile after only 5 hours and if i have to validate it afterward for another 12 hours myself its kinda pointless

[near crag]

ah yeah thats the difference, it's not "validating" you still need to memtest after, but it'll run through and find the stable voltages/values etc for your chips (allegedly, possible it's snake oil)

i don't have the patience to sit there and change values all day long

[azure topaz]

that’s fair

[tidal geyser]

dam its been so hot for the past 2 weeks i have not really gamed

[abstract wigeon]

after how many years would you repaste a gpu?

and cpu of it’s different

[tidal geyser]

3-5

seen 10 year old hardware be fine

still repasted ofc

[abstract wigeon]

what i was thinking cheers

is there any benefit to using special pads and stuff or can i just use the same paste that came with me cpu

and just keep the stock pads

[tidal geyser]

no special paste for gpus just make sure to spread it as that is the die no IHS unless you have a gtx 560 or something xd, and for me i just keep the pads unless you are planing to i dono OC memeory or something its fine most times.

[plush wren]

[abstract wigeon]

nah just want to make sure the gpu is in good condition before it goes to the next owner

do i have to reset all my overclock/undervolting stuff before it goes to someone else? or does it not retain that data

[tidal geyser]

Data is on windows

It's what ever program you used that applies the oc every time you boot up windows or else setting a bad oc would mean a semi bricked gpu

[rigid fjord]

be wise to replace it asap

[tidal geyser]

wa

[tidal geyser]

replace it since it works

[left dove]

I forget- are you a dev for hoggit or just a pilot

[rigid fjord]

since it's damaged on the outer sheathing

[tidal geyser]

well its not copper

not like its gonna oxidize

[near crag]

I just fly, have done some modding but not a “dev” by any means

[rigid fjord]

no, but as the fibre is exposed, it could be fairly easy to damage it even more

[tidal geyser]

so replace it since its more possible to damage it now?

[rigid fjord]

aye

[left dove]

Ahh- gotcha

[tidal geyser]

yea no im not throwing away working shit

[left dove]

do it you little packrat

[whole garden]

just give it away or sell it

https://tenor.com/view/cats-cat-muscle-muscle-cat-meme-gif-551006329262101208

[tidal geyser]

sell it?

i can see the fiber

[whole garden]

ohh

I didn't read any of the messages

[rigid fjord]

the bluriness of the cable itself is annoying

[abstract wigeon]

is it melted?

[tidal geyser]

door

[abstract wigeon]

ahh

[rigid fjord]

door, like how it affect some other cables when you trap it in the frame

[tidal geyser]

o yes

na zero need for 100m of it

[random junco]

i love my 50 metre roll

90% of it is stuffed into a cupboard

[tidal geyser]

yeeaa im buying a 5m roll too this time around

i flashed that thingy with some custom firmware

and looking for more different things to flash and found it again

[random junco]

7500f or 8400f

[tidal geyser]

xd

[wicked cipher]

anyone buying this?

[tidal geyser]

its not just a easy choice there mate

[random junco]

ah

[tidal geyser]

the 8400f really is that shit

[pine sandal]

is the Corsair RM850x a good psu?

[random junco]

how come

[tidal geyser]

well yea its A tier

[tidal geyser]

its a mobile chip without the part that makes it good

[pine sandal]

alright

[random junco]

well thats dumb

[tidal geyser]

not really

it makes it hella cheap but china better

[random junco]

but also makes sense as to its price

[tidal geyser]

aka 7500f really from ali is just down right better

[random junco]

yeah

what part of the mobile chip makes it good

[tidal geyser]

its a apu

aka it has a igpu

[random junco]

isnt an apu a igpu and cpu

[tidal geyser]

yes

[random junco]

yeah so how come its bad

[tidal geyser]

mobile cpu, bigger better igpu due to it being a mobile cpu aka it takes up more space so less cache aka what makes a cpu good at gaming and due to being mobile and not a desktop cpu it means it has way less pcie lanes

[wicked cipher]

would you buy a 24gb 5050 ti?

[rigid fjord]

very much so

[rigid fjord]

it's an 8600g minus the igpu that made it good

[rigid fjord]

not a chance

[wicked cipher]

w mans here

[trim gyro]

I don't think it'll have the bandwidth to effectively make use of it

[wicked cipher]

true

[trim gyro]

I wouldn't mind a $150 rtx 5030 with no power connector though

[tidal geyser]

av1, blackwell tensor cores, most modern everything else

[wicked cipher]

rtx 5010*

[tidal geyser]

cuda

[trim gyro]

but that's if it can perform well

[tidal geyser]

i could not care less about the performance in games

[abstract wigeon]

if youre buying a brand new card below 60 class performance shouldnt be your priority

[thorny nexus]

They need to make some modern lp cards

[tulip sparrow]

STOP doing that with your cables people

[tidal geyser]

3050?
a310

[tidal geyser]

the 5060 is a LP card

[thorny nexus]

That either don’t suck or don’t cost $400

[tidal geyser]

the 5060 does not suck

[thorny nexus]

Does it cost $400

Bring back the gt1010

[tidal geyser]

its not????

[plain cypress]

For a LP model the 5060 is okay but external power requirements will make it a bit more limited

[tidal geyser]

339USD
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/3Brp99/gigabyte-oc-low-profile-geforce-rtx-5060-8-gb-video-card-gv-n5060oc-8gl

[plain cypress]

Only a $40 premium

[tidal geyser]

yea it REALLY is not bad for what you get

shipping costs more then the thing itself

[thorny nexus]

I love AliExpress

[tidal geyser]

ofc free shipping and about the same price as the other one

[rigid fjord]

tbf, this could be diy'd using a buck converter

[grizzled frost]

you’d still need an ac to dc converter

[tidal geyser]

i do not trust myself

[thorny nexus]

It also costs like the same

[tidal geyser]

easier to just use some 60w 12v psu i have lying around and just snip and solder some cables

i wanna zigbeeee

[rigid fjord]

eh, more of a decent power brick, which you can get some that do straight molex instead

[tidal geyser]

i need 5v too

[grizzled frost]

so an ac to dc converter?

going from 12v to 5v is what the buck converter is for

[rigid fjord]

not really, buck converters be cheap, though it's more getting the cable off an old psu

[tidal geyser]

its 4$ anyways

well ok it does not have tax so more

god dam do i still LOVE this thing
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006820869547.html

[thorny nexus]

I bought a carb off of Ali the other day

[grizzled frost]

atp just use a 24p jumper and a molex to sata power converter

[grizzled frost]

nuc, m.2 to sata, then 24pin jumper ed tor sata power?

[tidal geyser]

yus

but its heavy as shit due to the psu and i kinda just wanna try and slim it down a bit since i do not really need even 100w

also gridfinity is life

[foggy breach]

hello guys, what are the rtx 5000 series to avoid? i wanna get a 5060ti is it worth the money?

[brisk sequoia]

Definitely not imo

Do you want to get something from the 5000 series?

[random gyro]

Hi! I have a r5 9600x a endorfy spartan 5 max rm650e and asrock b650m-h/M.2+Q what setting should i enable like pbo or line 125 tdp?

[charred kiln]

naur

[tidal geyser]

you can if you want to but unless you have a high end gpu and play on low res its not gonna do much

[grizzled frost]

get a flex atx psu

[tidal geyser]

i am not that rich

[grizzled frost]

they’re not that expensive

[random gyro]

Well id line to do something that wont give major risk. What should i enable?

[trim gyro]

well a braindead option is PBO all cores -15mv offset, free performance

anything higher you'll probably want to do some long stability testing

[random gyro]

Would 125w tdp be good to enable?

[trim gyro]

is it set to Auto

[random gyro]

Yea

[trim gyro]

leave it as is

by default it's usually enabled anyway :p

[random gyro]

Ok so only pbo? Btw should i use expo or xmp?

[carmine quiver]

so im planning on building a setup that involves one 34" and 2 27"

i already have 1 27 inch monitor and im planning on getting another 27" sometime this month since my other monitor broke. and im wondering what would be my best option, should i buy a curved 27" and just upgrade the one i already have in the future, or just get another flat one. im getting the 34" next year

not sure what would be best

ill be using it for what not, and sim racing

[trim gyro]

xmp and expo should be the same

if your ram comes with both, use xmp then Ig

[random gyro]

Ok ill use xmp as my ram supports both.

So pbo -15mv offset allcores and xmp 6000.

[left dove]

this is more chaotic than my old fuckin' setup what

[carmine quiver]

ikr

[trim gyro]

also enable Above 4G Decoding and Re-Size BAR Support

[random gyro]

Will that do anything for gtx 1060?

[carmine quiver]

been using 2 27" and i always have it all full, was planning on going for a triple monitor setup but i started getting into sim racing, so im planning on getting an ultrawide

[carmine quiver]

idk what im looking at

[left dove]

A fuck load of displays about as chaotic as whatever's going on in the back of your pic lmao

[trim gyro]

nope, keep it auto/disabled then

[random gyro]

Ok.

[carmine quiver]

oh dont mind those, those were just extra stuff

just mind the one on the table

[rigid fjord]

5060 and 5060ti are ones to avoid tbh, you could get a 9060 xt and that would out perform the both of them for less

[carmine quiver]

i mean 3

[random gyro]

Oh yeah also i am gonna use this rig for vms what were again those options on the amd side?

[left dove]

Discord is not a search engine

[foggy breach]

and would you take the 7800 xt or the 9060xt?

[icy rain]

my r7 9700x is 50deg in idle that's sht
what could be the problem

[trim gyro]

hardware virtualization should be enabled on most motherboards by default. If you're on Windows, open Task Manager (ctrl+shift+esc) and check under Performance -> CPU that Virtualization is Enabled

[rigid fjord]

between them, the 7800xt

[rigid fjord]

not shit, and is totally fine

[carmine quiver]

it is if you try hard enough

[icy rain]

it should be cooler

as i see on internet tests

[odd marsh]

it's literally fine

[rigid fjord]

according to who?

[charred kiln]

jeez

[left dove]

Welcome to the trifecta of autism, adhd, and object permanence issues! :D

(I only run 3 displays now though- much less heat)

[odd marsh]

https://community.amd.com/t5/gaming/ryzen-7000-series-processors-let-s-talk-about-power-temperature/ba-p/554629 from AMD engineers

[charred kiln]

uhh, I have ADHD too?

[odd marsh]

idle temps mean literally nothing

[left dove]

Congrats(?)

[icy rain]

it is a 9000 serie for me

[odd marsh]

they still function the same

[charred kiln]

thanks :D

[inner veldt]

Whats the name of the screw at bottom?

[icy rain]

i had 1 8pin for CPU plus 4pin

what is the usage

[left dove]

Panhead screw with a rotund, non-threaded spacer meant for secure mounts

i.e. hard drive screw for mounting

the smooth bit of the shaft is to make sure the threads don't eat up the silicone/rubber vibration dampener

[inner veldt]

I need one of those

But m3 size

Where can I find this?

[left dove]

mcmaster carr, amazon, home depot, ask a machine shop to make you a few

[solid crown]

not mcmaster bro 💀

50 cents for the screw and $300 same day shipping

[trim gyro]

at least the website is very fast

that has to be worth at least $50

[left dove]

get a lathe and some drill rod i guess idk

[charred kiln]

im bored

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-claps-clapping-cute-gif-14440436985127897764

Me too

[left dove]

That sucks, go outside

[charred kiln]

no, its stinky outside

[tidal geyser]

its 26c inside for me

[left dove]

Then suffer and find something to do

its like 20c in my office rn

[tidal geyser]

im trying to do stuff but too hot

[left dove]

thanks overspecced air conditioning

[charred kiln]

im kinda tired of stabbing kids in minecraft so...

[plush wren]

Get on gta and kill people

[charred kiln]

and I am unable to get myself to play any other game

[plush wren]

I'm joking I saw a tiktok that said they do this

[left dove]

Then go take a shower and drink water

[charred kiln]

I alr did

[plush wren]

Why would that help

[left dove]

have a bath, do some self-reflecting

[plush wren]

[left dove]

Go cry over a lost loved one

[charred kiln]

thats dark

[plush wren]

Why be sad if you can be happy

[left dove]

No, it's emotional

[rose stream]

Literally me while still in this year's ArtFight: Have you tried stabbing other people your age then, artistically?

[charred kiln]

meh, I have enough sadness in my life already

rather do something fun

[steel umbra]

how/why the hell can you explain things this well

[left dove]

idk I have a mechanically inclined mind

[charred kiln]

what makes you think I know the age of the people I stab in minecraft lol

[sly bolt]

i'm looking at the pinout, and i'm seeing that power is only delivered in the first part of the slot. is there any motherboard setting to deliver additional power, or things i can do?

[charred kiln]

they have more than one brain cell, thats how

[tidal geyser]

is it a x1 slot?

[left dove]

I can also probably build you a little cabin but I'm not doing any drywall or painting

[sly bolt]

it's a x16 slot, wired electrically as x1

[tidal geyser]

HAHAHAHA

ya no, no way in hell

[rose stream]

Well that's just it: you don't until they reveal their age to you.
Meanwhile, if you participate in events like what I mentioned, you at least know the age range you're up against or at least have the general gist of who's participating as well.

[sly bolt]

don't care about performance, but wouldn't it be (in theory) possible?

[tidal geyser]

what

no its x1 you numpty

in theory no it would not be possible

[icy rain]

44deg idle for a rx 9070 xt is ok ?

[sly bolt]

yeah but like

[tidal geyser]

no

[sly bolt]

only the first like part of the pcie slot

[charred kiln]

lmao, ill stick to stabbing people in minecraft :D

[left dove]

yes

[tidal geyser]

its really low

[rose stream]

Oh hey, it's me when not tired or distracted!

[sly bolt]

is for delivering power

[tidal geyser]

should be more like 50-60

[left dove]

Then we don't wanna hear about how you're bored anymore

[steel umbra]

if it would be possible your x1 slot and connector would get charred

[tidal geyser]

like x8 maybe

[icy rain]

In game yes but idle

[steel umbra]

with some little poor contact

[tidal geyser]

no idle

[charred kiln]

stick to stabbing them in general, not specifically right now

[sly bolt]

charred?

[steel umbra]

burnt/charred

[left dove]

I don't feel like scrolling what is maaa wanting to do

[sly bolt]

i have a x16 slot that's wired for x1

there's no reason to do any modification

[icy rain]

I have 8 + 4 for powering mb, is the 4 pin necessary?

[steel umbra]

so like 10-20w max

[left dove]

wat

[charred kiln]

im kinda hungry imma go raid the kitchen

[tidal geyser]

you imabicle, on the fkn wiki

[steel umbra]

75w would burn the pins on your cards or other circuitary

[left dove]

all pcie no matter the data width can do 75w off the slot

[sly bolt]

trying to see if it's maybe possible to put a graphics card in a x16 slot that's wired for x1

[left dove]

will work, but will be insanely slow

[sly bolt]

like it wont POST

[tidal geyser]

nothing special for x8 is surprising

[steel umbra]

@left dove

[tidal geyser]

its a only slot powered gpu

[sly bolt]

with that GPU connected

[tidal geyser]

i think a full fat gpu meant for 75w too

[left dove]

oh if its slow powered then no

[tidal geyser]

slow powered

[steel umbra]

slow powered

[sly bolt]

if it wasn't slot powered, would it then work perhaps?

[tidal geyser]

only gpu i know of that can do x1 is a gt 710

[left dove]

yeah prob

[solid crown]

slow powered

sounds like me

[sly bolt]

i need displayport 1.4a :P

[steel umbra]

man my electricity is so slow :sadge:

[tidal geyser]

did you not have a rm850x?

[sly bolt]

i have a rm750x

[steel umbra]

anyways even theoretically, assuming we remove the amperage limits for 1x slot (board)/card, 10-20w is max, otherwise bye bye x1 connector

it won't handle 75w

[tidal geyser]

up to 3 pcie cables with a pigtail

[left dove]

you aren't getting 1.4a off of a gt710 lmao

[sly bolt]

i don't have a gt710, but a card existed that supported displayport 1.4, and worked in my situation that'd be nice

[steel umbra]

these are type 4 too so if you only own one pcie 6+2 for some reason you can buy type 4 layout cables

or type 3 expect for the motherboard 24pin

[sly bolt]

would like a GPU that accepts external power work then

for example the AMD Radeon Pro W5500

[cold frost]

anyone know shit about monitors

i need a good monitor and a decent one for a double monitor setup

[steel umbra]

that's not gpu that accepts external pcie 6/+2

i don't see any female 6 pin connector on the card

[cold frost]

like £180-240 and good for work and streaming movies and shit, less for games

[steel umbra]

oh mb

yes that is 6 pin

[left dove]

yeah KEV

[sly bolt]

it has a TDP of 125W, and the 6 pin can only deliver 75W, so i'm wondering if it'd be power limited or just not work

[rigid fjord]

this may work alongside a 6800

[steel umbra]

i'm not blind i swear

[rigid fjord]

a 6 pin can actually carry more than 75w

[steel umbra]

should be fine just make sure to plug in the 6 pin properly

and no it shouldn't be limited by default

only the slot is current limited

[sly bolt]

i remember seeing somewhere online that it drew 75W from the slot and 75W from the 6-pin

[steel umbra]

and the card max current that's currently set

[sly bolt]

according to gigabyte, it's 75W max

[steel umbra]

it should draw 10w from the slot and 115w from the external power in

[sly bolt]

doesn't that go over the PCIe 6-pin spec

[rigid fjord]

no, as pcie power connecters are generally made over spec

[spring latch]

im gonna kms over jasper lake

[steel umbra]

the psu does not know how much amperage should be allowed to the 6pin (unless were talking about high end digital psus that has such option), it will let power until it shutdowns if a protection built in the psu trips

[spring latch]

my iGPU is GT1 so I cant do very much otherwise, really wish I could fix my ice lake laptop

[rigid fjord]

and so reads on chuckles tombstone " death by carrot"

[spring latch]

damn it I wish i had nitro so I could reply with trollface

na but seriously I need to figure out wtf is wrong with my ice lake laptop

[rigid fjord]

also gigabyte, as if they're trustworthy on anything

[spring latch]

my laptop is a surface

its a lesser known laptop version of the surface go

for some reason I did something somehow while replacing the NVMe and now its just dead

[rigid fjord]

rm750x would handle enough ocp to handle both gpu's but the 6800's transient spike might trigger it to restart

[spring latch]

if its the keyboard ill never know cuz I cant even turn it on with the keyboard

[steel umbra]

the single psu will trip if it's like 125% over it's 748W 12v rail spec, so like 920w+ through the single 6pin and the psu would be still running probably

with multirail it's different

[steel umbra]

but the cables would be absolutely fried

[spring latch]

alright im done, this surfces keyboard connector just BROKE OFF

[steel umbra]

6800 non xt has surprisingly low amount of transients btw

[sly bolt]

i'm not concerned about it consuming too much power, rather the cables frying

[rigid fjord]

@sly bolt that 6800 has a transient spike that puts it into a 400w range, so combining it with the w5500 and cpu, you have the possibility of pushing it close

[steel umbra]

plug the cable in properly and make sure it's not clunked together in a space where there's no airflow with other cables

[sly bolt]

my CPU is a i5-12400F

undervolted

[rigid fjord]

enough to be at 400w still, and with at least 125-200w of the w5500

[steel umbra]

btw modern (good) psus are built to handle those transients even over their ocp/opp

[rigid fjord]

so, aiming to force it to be at 65w like it's tdp is suppose to be?

[spring latch]

2025 might as well be my worst tech year, ms surface AND a celeron j system is just dead

stuck with a pentium silver gateway

[sly bolt]

it's just undervolted to reduce the temperature :P

[spring latch]

low chance I COULD fix the celeron j but coinsidering it mainly died because of condensation idk man

[left dove]

condensation = corrosion + shorts, prob not

[rigid fjord]

true, modern decent ones can, just that we could be getting close to barely having any headroom on a 750w psu

[steel umbra]

@sly bolt if you're really worried you could undervolt the card

[spring latch]

I mean u gotta consider it worked for a bit after waiting for it to dry

and I did go over it with alcohol and a toothbrush afterwards TWICE and waited for it to fully dry

[charred kiln]

okay I didnt have to raid the kitchen

my parents just got back with sushi lmao

[sly bolt]

my RX 6800 is undervolted, probably something i'll do just to get the temperatures down

[rigid fjord]

it can affect performance also, and a 65w tdp cpu's power draw can be double that

[shell vortex]

when i am making backups of save files or app files, is it safe to build the folder structure so that i can just paste the folders into c, and have all the files end up in the same spot? or is it better to find the end folder and just paste there?

[spring latch]

theres no obvious corrosion but I might as well go over it with alcohol again

[steel umbra]

you don't need to focus that much on transients with the rm750x, they're well-built manufactured by CWT and don't have history unlike something like focus fx of tripping protections, i'd just focus on the power draw

[rigid fjord]

i'm more looking at the likely overall power draw, and estimating about 20w total headroom overall,

[rigid fjord]

do you have a pc part picker list of your build?

[steel umbra]

6800, w5500, i5-12400f, what else?

[sly bolt]

no

[rigid fjord]

fans, ram, ssd

possible hdd if they're using one

[sly bolt]

can probably make one :P

[steel umbra]

yeah that's ok then

[rigid fjord]

would be nice to see

[sly bolt]

[tidal geyser]

Yuh

I'm gonna sell a pc on Friday

I'm gonna risk something

Buy 200$ worth of stuff on ali and hope to God that Friday deal pulls through or else guess who goes homeless (na I got parents and nice landlords)

[steel umbra]

120w for 12400f, 280w for rx 6800, 125w for w5500, for ram, mb vrms, fans, ssd let's say 75w, that's about 600w, so 150w of headroom

[steel umbra]

hazard simmy, very bad

[tidal geyser]

I'm gonna hope I manage to sell something else too as it's not until the end of the month rent is due

O ye I should be getting 15$ before the weekend and maybe na shipping is slow but on Monday 35$ too

[inner veldt]

I set phanteks t30 to performance mode from advanced, it should run at 2000 rom max but still goes 3000 rpm at max , what should I do?

[tidal geyser]

Lower the rpm on the fan profile

[inner veldt]

I did but the mode is arranging by a switch behind the fan, I dont understand why it doesnt work

[trim gyro]

when the cpu cooler is more expensive than the cpu

[tidal geyser]

Skill issue

[tidal geyser]

wat

no but you change it in the bios, its pwm right????

[pulsar crypt]

Best place to buy windows 11 key legit

[left dove]

go look at ltt's last video on windows activation

other than that we're not going to help you get grey-market crap

[tidal geyser]

microsoft.com

also legit the only way to get it is microsoft

[trim gyro]

I think best buy amazon has windows keys on sale sometimes

[swift moss]

I love free stuff 😁

[spring latch]

im going to hope that celeron board works

i gave it a good scrub with alcohol and a toothbrush

[swift moss]

Then they gonna make me order an MOQ of like 10000 at 1usd a piece

[abstract wigeon]

those power slots look abused

[alpine wyvern]

Is bluetooth just an issue in windows 11 24h2

[tidal geyser]

no

[alpine wyvern]

I cannot connect mobile devices via bluetooth

other stuff connects

[abstract wigeon]

windows phone link has always been a mess for me

[alpine wyvern]

its plain bluetooth

not phone link

its just on windows it works perfectly on linux

[inner veldt]

It is pwm and removed-changed switch again and it works now

[wicked cipher]

Now julian lefay is dead...

[tidal geyser]

is that some smart home product

[random junco]

there's always listed features that I see and then it's not even available for me

but the notifications are useful

[abstract wigeon]

i just have my phone on my desk

[tidal geyser]

do you not have the phone in your pocket or right next to you?

i even have a smart watch so i do not even need to look at my phone

[random junco]

mines usually on my desk but when it's in my pocket I wouldn't take it out for the notifications

[alpine wyvern]

my phones on my desk

it just doesnt connect to windows

[wicked cipher]

nah its the former engineer cheif at bethesda

you werent talking about that were you...

[tidal geyser]

i was making a joke of the name yea and no context behind it

[tidal geyser]

never played it

[random junco]

about to sell my 5600x for £90, buy a 3600 and mobo combo for £60, sell the 3600 for £30 then buy a 5600 for £73

because I'm bored

[hot willow]

Would like a second opinion from my fellow Canadians. I found a local listing of 64GB 6000 CL30 Asgard Valkyrie II for $200 CAD on Marketplace. Is that a "jump on it now" deal or a rip-off?

[wicked cipher]

ever heard of elden ring

same series

[tidal geyser]

go for it if ya want to

i got a 96GB kit for 100$ converted from NOK in Norway

[tidal geyser]

never played it

[hot willow]

You can't just drop a bombshell like that and not tell me how you got that absurd deal!

[tidal geyser]

i dono live in Norway and some INSANE luck

i was so lucky with my cpu, like 50% or less of all am5 cpus ever made are able to do 6400MT 1:1 and i already used 6400MT kit 1:1 so with the new sticks the seller claimed were no amd optimized i laughed.

o yea and i sold my old sticks for a a bit more then i bought the new sticks for

[random junco]

as much as I love nothing, why the hell are the cameras oriented like this.

[tidal geyser]

so i now have 96GB for soem reason

[tidal geyser]

tis just how its made

[alpine wyvern]

Honestly the glyf on older models was better

[tidal geyser]

i could not care less since, uh case

[abstract wigeon]

clear case

[tidal geyser]

yellow

but the current one i got came with a case and dat clear

[abstract wigeon]

i use the big leather ones that hold cards in the front

absorbs every single drop

[random junco]

the uncle phone case

[abstract wigeon]

it works

[agile stag]

thanks microsoft,,

also are they saying that my pc cant upgrade to windows 11 ever

[random junco]

never say never

[alpine wyvern]

You could bypass w11 requirements

[tidal geyser]

you do know they are patching it

and for people who already have been doing it they also had to reinstall a few times anyways

[agile stag]

thats fine i prefer w10 maybe i can celebrate

[alpine wyvern]

I haven't needed to

Been using it since launch

[iron glen]

what program requires win11

other than Microsoft's whatever they are

office 365 or smth

[alpine wyvern]

Win 10 is going out of support

[charred kiln]

we all ask the same questions...

[iron glen]

i thought it already is out of support

[alpine wyvern]

No

October

[tidal geyser]

hundo for all dis

[coarse grotto]

i use kdeconnect 🙂 (on windows and on linux ) allot better than the windows thing (still not as good as the dell thing but...)

[abstract wigeon]

did not know it was in windows

[charred kiln]

YOOOOO

KDE connect supremacy

[iron glen]

boy i sure am a fan of blurred item and blurred item, not so sure about blurred item though

[coarse grotto]

people getting tricked in using 365 , kind of sad since you can actually still buy Office 2024 , and not be cloud dependant

[shy schooner]

is switch 2 worth it? or should i go with switch oled

[charred kiln]

you should ditch consoles :D

[shy schooner]

oled is like 2x cheaper

[abstract wigeon]

what do you want it for?

[shy schooner]

pokemon games

[coarse grotto]

https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9n93mrmsxbf0?hl=en-US&gl=US

[charred kiln]

switch oled

ez

[shy schooner]

alright

[tidal geyser]

there happy

[charred kiln]

whats "NOK"

[tidal geyser]

norway moneys

[charred kiln]

and how much is it in real moneys

[iron glen]

guessing norwegian krona

[trim gyro]

usd is worthless now

[tidal geyser]

i just do 10nok=1USD so 1000nok 100USD even tho USD is taking a dive

[coarse grotto]

nok means passed out due to alcohol or other substances 😄

here*

[iron glen]

can't wait to go back to trading with clay discs and acorns

[charred kiln]

it does lol

[iron glen]

called a "fun night" here

[charred kiln]

and that means cheaper things for me so I am not complainin

[alpine wyvern]

i use it too

[tidal geyser]

but yea no its 1200nok for all of it

[trim gyro]

prefer sand dollars

[tidal geyser]

way more then i really wanted to spend but meh, i need something to do during the summer

[charred kiln]

I needed something to do in the summer too, I bought a 3D printer lol

[tidal geyser]

i did too, 2 summers ago

[charred kiln]

which one?

[iron glen]

pull a teenage city girl and just order too many clothes by any standards from shein or smth

[charred kiln]

heh

[tidal geyser]

p1s

[tidal geyser]

EWWWWWW fast fashion

[charred kiln]

nice, with the AMS?

[coarse grotto]

the best app for it that ive ever used is actually this one but its i think dell only :https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9nx51w9gbs5t?hl=en-US&gl=US

[tidal geyser]

ofc

[iron glen]

maybe put together lowtiergod's 300% polyester fit

[alpine wyvern]

I use a thinkpad

[charred kiln]

I got the X1C with the AMS, pretty overkill for a new printer but who knows I might actually need it to be overkill in the future

[coarse grotto]

(my dell is also RIP , have a framework 13 now :))

[iron glen]

idk if it was a joke or not but iirc at some point it was cool to wear like 20 pairs of boxers or smth

[alpine wyvern]

Doesn't it need bluetooth tho

[tidal geyser]

wat

[steel umbra]

trade goods for goods, even better

[charred kiln]

I wanna get a .2 mm nozzle for miniatures

[coarse grotto]

i think it can same as kdeconnect , that one also can use both wifi and bluetooth

[alpine wyvern]

I see

[steel umbra]

i wonder if the inventor/s of first money weren't poor so they made their own currency 🤣 /j

[wanton trail]

Anyone know how to fix a ps3?

[trim gyro]

replace every component

[charred kiln]

try the bringus studios server

[iron glen]

might have been a joke but i remember seeing some rapper's homeless looking attire on youtube, featured like 4 pairs of boxers

[wanton trail]

How do i join

[tidal geyser]

is it a phat ps3

[charred kiln]

go to his channel and the about page ig

[iron glen]

ion think theres been a perion where there hasnt been no currency

[wanton trail]

Yea oval looking one, not the slim

Why

[tidal geyser]

i would not even try to repair it unless it has dem 4 usb ports and all the other things

[steel umbra]

lovely

[coarse grotto]

pleistoscene , jurrassic ? 😄

[iron glen]

no they had like
dino money or smth

never seen a jurrassic Louis Vinton bag before?

lui viton idk

[alpine wyvern]

How did you get it in dark mode mine stays in light

[coarse grotto]

i know they sell mammouth soup in russia somewhere (with real mammoth) but no no louis bags

[charred kiln]

ew.

[iron glen]

they be doing anything in russia

[silk merlin]

ok, folks. Trying something new. I have an old Thinkpad (circa 2010?). I want to replace/upgrade the display.
Anyone have any info I where I should look to start researching compatible displays?

[steel umbra]

why would you eats fossils

[iron glen]

saw a video once of some old russian lady giving a bear a shower with snow

[charred kiln]

why am I awake I need to be asleep I have to go to the doctor tomorrowwwwwwwww

[tidal geyser]

2010?

[silk merlin]

maybe 2012. Can't remember exactly

[tidal geyser]

i am all for reuse but like

[coarse grotto]

i think it just follows this setting :

[iron glen]

have some warm milk and honey

[alpine wyvern]

Not for me ig

[tidal geyser]

also a new display will 100% cost more then a modern one with a better display

[silk merlin]

I get it. It's old. But I figure I won't feel so bad if I screw it up.

[charred kiln]

hi Jeroen

[coarse grotto]

hi

[iron glen]

sim what do you suggest looking out for when shopping for a monitor

[silk merlin]

Not so sure. I am looking at IPS panels from that era and I can definitely grab one for < $80

[tidal geyser]

1440p 180hz is like 150$

[lapis talon]

Should I go for the S24 Ultra

[alpine wyvern]

It's a solid phone

[charred kiln]

wat phone do you have now and how much does the s24u cost

[tidal geyser]

i have 100% seen 4th gen thinkpads or just those kinda laptops go for 80

[iron glen]

definitely more here

[lapis talon]

But green line

[alpine wyvern]

Does it have it

Or no

[silk merlin]

but that defeats the point of learning to do this. That is, fundamentally, the reason for it.

[lapis talon]

Literally don't have a phone. The S24 Ultra unofficial unit costs $875 USDish

[charred kiln]

heh

[silk merlin]

I can buy an already built Lego Millenium Falcon too, but that's no fun 😉

[charred kiln]

ye thats a steal then

[alpine wyvern]

What do you mean unofficial

[tidal geyser]

i at least know modern ish laptops tend to use kinda the same connector

[lapis talon]

Grey market units

[alpine wyvern]

O

[wanton trail]

I have a crazy Gt5 save file and i dont wanna buy a diff ps3

[lapis talon]

Basically snuck into the country without paying taxes

[alpine wyvern]

That's a good deal then

[charred kiln]

then just get a pixel on sale or whatever

[lapis talon]

But no warranty

[tidal geyser]

how do you know the like what now 15+ year old HDD is not the issue?

[alpine wyvern]

Then I wouldn't buy it

[lapis talon]

Really bad network issues in my country

[charred kiln]

ah

[alpine wyvern]

If no warranty

[silk merlin]

I know that on this model I will defintely need to incorporate an eDP to LVDS converter board

[charred kiln]

I would

[lapis talon]

Can get a year of replacement guarantee for $60 extra

[charred kiln]

I have more than 3 brain cells, I can replace a screen or a back glass

as long as its not an earlier iPhone

when they were basically one with the rest of the housing

[lapis talon]

Problem is, Samsung displays cost a lot here

[alpine wyvern]

It's easier with the 24 ultra cuz of flat screen

[alpine wyvern]

They do

[wanton trail]

Idk, but all i know is its in a boot loop like turns on then off then on then off however this time no light

[charred kiln]

smasnug

[tidal geyser]

if its real quick, PSU

[lapis talon]

Yeah that's the problem 💀

[wanton trail]

Ok

[wanton trail]

Are they expensive?

[lapis talon]

My mother uses a S25 Ultra and I love how it feels except for the fact that it weighs like a brick

[tidal geyser]

its a 15 year old console so maybe

also there are so many fkn models

[lapis talon]

That's why I'm eyeing the s24 Ultra

[tidal geyser]

and im not 100% on psu

[alpine wyvern]

Ye I would take 24U

[lapis talon]

With the $60 guarantee?

[tidal geyser]

i should also get a 24U rack

[charred kiln]

k imma go nap

[tidal geyser]

eh 48U might fit

[lapis talon]

$10 screen protector from Spigen or a $1 random one

[alpine wyvern]

Depends on current condition

[alpine wyvern]

Aliexpress

[lapis talon]

It's brand new

[charred kiln]

by nap I mean fall asleep with a tolkien book in my hand

buhbai

[alpine wyvern]

So it doesn't have green line

[lapis talon]

I'll check the IMEI number before purchasing it to see if it's an activated unit or not

[lapis talon]

Hopefully not out of the box

[alpine wyvern]

It won't out of box

[lapis talon]

I also have a galaxy watch 6 so ig that's one more reason why I want a s24u

[coarse grotto]

only other thing i did differently possibly is installing it trough: ```ps
winget install KDE.KDEConnect

[alpine wyvern]

You won't rely need to worry about green line

[alpine wyvern]

I see

[lapis talon]

But I heard it's common with Samsung ones

[alpine wyvern]

I use s1p

S10

[lapis talon]

Ooo nicee

[alpine wyvern]

No problem at all

[lapis talon]

My mother used to use a S7 edge a really long time ago but

[coarse grotto]

(or trough startmenu then search for cmd rightlclick run as administrator but that takes longer 🙂

[alpine wyvern]

I think it mainly only happens if you drop it badly

[lapis talon]

That got green lines and the display broke after a few years

[alpine wyvern]

Get good case you should be fine

[lapis talon]

I'll just need to invest a bit on the phone case then right?

Should I get a thick screen protector or a thin one

[alpine wyvern]

Maybe 20 cad or 25 at max

[coarse grotto]

i invested in a landline and a phone for that 😄

[lapis talon]

How much is that in USD

[alpine wyvern]

Depends on how much u drop your phone

[lapis talon]

Lemme check

[lapis talon]

I'm a bit on the clumsier side. Not saying I drop it frequently but it does happen

[alpine wyvern]

I see

[lapis talon]

If Samsung had a native magsafe thing built into the phone, it'd be cool

[lapis talon]

I think

Anyways then ig I'll go for the S24U + $60 1 year phone replacement guarantee

[alpine wyvern]

I'd get this

[alpine wyvern]

That should be fine

[lapis talon]

There's also another option for a $30 parts replacement warranty

[alpine wyvern]

60 should be fine

[lapis talon]

Can you send me the link in DMS if you don't mind

[alpine wyvern]

OK sure

[lapis talon]

Alright

[frigid blade]

aliexpress is ez, just find the cheapest one with the most reviews and highest rating

[lapis talon]

I don't want to use iOS because most of my stuff relies on android and doesn't work with iOS properly

[lapis talon]

Yup

Found out they deliver to Bangladesh recently

[alpine wyvern]

I honestly dont like iphones in general

[frigid blade]

my shit got stuck in us customs

it took 3 days

[lapis talon]

They're smooth but I like my freedom on Android

[alpine wyvern]

same

[lapis talon]

My Thrustmaster TH8S has been stuck in BD customs for 1ish month now

[frigid blade]

iOS has freedom if you have an dev cert

then you can sideload without having issues

[lapis talon]

Idrk much about iOS as the only one I have in my family is an iPhone 8

[alpine wyvern]

Android has better UI tho

[frigid blade]

they cost way too much tho, the sketchy ways of getting a cert are much better lol

[alpine wyvern]

btw is it exynos or snapdragon s24U

[lapis talon]

Snapdragon

12/256

[frigid blade]

in what way

[tidal geyser]

i dono i still would rather take a 125w charger in the box and ofc charging and 512GB of storage with 12GB of ram for 380 then anything iphone can give it even came with bt 5.4 while the best apple can offer is 5.3

[frigid blade]

i think ive always preferred iOS UI

even when I had my androids

[tidal geyser]

last time you used android?

[frigid blade]

yesterday

[tidal geyser]

and what android

[frigid blade]

s24

[lapis talon]

And let's not mention the special needs "USB C" port

[tidal geyser]

ew yea no samysung no good

[tidal geyser]

o yea my usb-c port also is dp 1.4 and usb 3.1

[frigid blade]

s24 fe

[tidal geyser]

so i got android desktop mode

[alpine wyvern]

That's in pretty every android flagship now

[lapis talon]

Oh wow

[alpine wyvern]

And some mid ranger

Also can you check the Poco F7 out

[tidal geyser]

nothing phone 3

[alpine wyvern]

I use samsung dex a lot as well

[lapis talon]

Half the price of the s24u

[alpine wyvern]

I think is usb c 2 so no

[lapis talon]

I've only used it once, and it was on my tv

[tidal geyser]

i literally ordered the cmf phone 2 pro but saw the motarola edge 50 pro for about the same price if i slapped in a new charger with the CMF

[tidal geyser]

well i said it due to not havign it

[wheat torrent]

Would it be possible to overclock a 7900 to reach same performance or better of a 7900x?

[tidal geyser]

no shit

but DO NOT get that cpu if you wanna game

[wheat torrent]

Interesting

[sleek fern]

is 173 USD for a secondhand i7 12700KF good value for a game server build? I already have a spare low wattage GPU to use as display and electricity prices are cheap where I live (Turkey) so

[lapis talon]

First time hearing anything about the 7900

[tidal geyser]

remove the f and yes

[sleek fern]

removing the F increase price to 230+

[tidal geyser]

o yea just game server

[wheat torrent]

Would it still be lower power usage than the x even when overclocked

[tidal geyser]

but yea more then fine

[tidal geyser]

ofc not but its literally the same cpu

[wheat torrent]

Interesting

Same cpu but it runs on lower electricity but can reach same performance

And lower temperature

[tidal geyser]

and if you do the X then again it will do the same

the X just has higher wattage out of the box

[wheat torrent]

Fair enough

[carmine yew]

the problem with x900 AMD chips:

They only have 6 cores in each node, instead of 8. That's bad for a lot of workloads.

there's a reason that *900 chips frequently end up at or near the pricetag of the 700/800 cpu's

[tidal geyser]

a lot of things with even just a 7600 can be better

[wheat torrent]

Fair enough

I agree

[carmine yew]

as soon as your data has to go across the fabric from node 1 to node 2? your performance tanks

[wheat torrent]

How many do the other have?

[tidal geyser]

ryzen 5 and 7 only have one

[carmine yew]

x600 = 6 cores on 1 node
x700/x800 = 8 cores on 1 node
x950 = 16 cores on 2 nodes

[tidal geyser]

also its not nodes its CCDs

[wheat torrent]

Interesting

[wheat torrent]

So x950 doesnt have this issues

[carmine yew]

nope, each CCD has 8 cores

[wheat torrent]

Fair enough

[tidal geyser]

well it can still have issues

[wheat torrent]

In 2027 I will upgrade to something like that

🫡

[tidal geyser]

zen 6 will be 12 core ccds

[wheat torrent]

For now this will do

[carmine yew]

in 2027 you should be considering the Ryzen... 10/11k chips (instead of 7000 or 9000)

[wheat torrent]

Yes

The latest am5 CPUs

[rose stream]

I'd agree too.

[tidal geyser]

wha

[wheat torrent]

But I think maybe waiting for 2028 would be the way to go I think

They may release a generation in 2027 but then do some extra variants

That's my guess, could be wrong

[tidal geyser]

am6 is like 2028 or more

zen 6 is next year or maybe even the year after

[carmine yew]

we're expecting Zen 6 in 2026 sometime.

Which should be Ryzen 10k (or 11K if they release a 10K as APU line again)

[glad fog]

I bought a monitor arm but it seems you cant change height

[tidal geyser]

o yea i forgor

[wheat torrent]

I assume they would make the 10k / 11k then follow up with some extra ###50x or x3d

[glad fog]

Ive no idea whats the use for it unless im standing

[tidal geyser]

amd just jumped over some numbers

[carmine yew]

you're probably not using it right

[wheat torrent]

To be honest I don't really like 10k naming scheme

[iron glen]

since when does instagram have a subscription?

[carmine yew]

meh, numbers are numbers, does it really matter?

[wheat torrent]

9800 sounds okay 10800 is kinda goofy

[wheat torrent]

You right

[carmine yew]

say that to my 10850K

[iron glen]

8€ / month for no ads

[wheat torrent]

I hope they don't rename it though

Like intel

[carmine yew]

I wouldn't be surprised if AM6 had a new naming scheme

but we have 0 clue if they are or not yet

[wheat torrent]

I upgrade to am5 just recently, my plan is to use it until the end of life then buy the latest and greatest

Then use that for a while

[glad fog]

ive no idea how

[tidal geyser]

yuh

[carmine yew]

"End of Life" is not clearcut on AMD stuff lol

[wheat torrent]

Yeah basically for a long while

[wheat torrent]

I assume from 7000 to 11k there would be a decent development

[carmine yew]

See AM4 getting "new" CPUs 4+ years after the platform was officially EoL'd

[tidal geyser]

again 12 core CCDs

[glad fog]

I try to push it down but it doesnt stick, its spring loaded I guess.

Unless i should unscrew it and then screw it at the right pos

[wheat torrent]

That's good

[carmine yew]

2 choices:

1. your monitor's just too light (unlikely but possible)

2. your screws on the pneumatics aren't at the right tension for your monitor

[glad fog]

I dont even have a monitor on there lol

[wheat torrent]

Idk all the technical expectations

[carmine yew]

are you fucking serious

[glad fog]

i am

[tidal geyser]

wa

[wheat torrent]

I just hope we get something better

[tidal geyser]

what were you expecting

[glad fog]

Ive no idea what the use of this is for if i cant move it up and down

[carmine yew]

IT NEEDS WEIGHT ON THE OTHER END TO WORK

jesus christ what the fuck

[tidal geyser]

too hard

[glad fog]

how would i know that? i didnt make it

[tidal geyser]

just put it on there???

[carmine yew]

common fucking sense

[glad fog]

the previous one i used i moved it about before

[wheat torrent]

7000->9000 was a pretty mediocre from what I've read

[tidal geyser]

well yea, ever read anything before that

[wheat torrent]

Like not big big difference

[carmine yew]

yes and no:

9000 got much better after initial launch

[tidal geyser]

its mostly price that made it so horrible

it did have a nice enough like 5-10% uplift for some games

[wheat torrent]

From what I recall like there was people saying that they used the same factories and whatnot

Instead of brand new factories or something like that

[tidal geyser]

no shit

[wheat torrent]

Okay

[tidal geyser]

that is how it works my guy

[wheat torrent]

My bad

[carmine yew]

all AMD CPUs and GPUs come from TSMC. All of them.

[solid osprey]

guys

long story short

[rose stream]

Yeah. They haven't been on GloFlo in years.

[carmine yew]

too long already

[solid osprey]

i tried making my dell h330 into a hba330 and that kinda failed miserably

[wheat torrent]

Yeah and they made the productivity CPUs perform the same in gaming

[solid osprey]

so its bricked and im trying to buy a hba330 now

[wheat torrent]

With the 9950x3d I think?

[solid osprey]

these allow sata drives to pass through aswell right

[rose stream]

Also, I think I recalled seeing something about GloFlo potentially getting another company under their wing. Forgot if it was them or such though.
