I you are going to do work with things that require CUDA or want CUDA for the utility, the NVIDIA board will be better.

[azure topaz]

a lot of it being salt

[night skiff]

Are you being serious?

[rigid fjord]

nope, just flavourings

[sleek ibex]

Not even in your fridge?

[azure topaz]

broski liquid iv is like peak hydration supplement

[clear canyon]

I never said i was joking

[plain cypress]

Costco was sampling it this weekend, limited edition firecracker popsicle flavor

Incredible how much it tastes like a Popsicle

[azure topaz]

i would not willingly drink liquid iv for the flavor

[clear canyon]

No lol, fruit isnt cheap tbh

[rigid fjord]

spring water on tap, even better

[limber nacelle]

man nothing hits like watermelon juice on a hot day tho

[azure topaz]

theres no salt in it

[rigid fjord]

honeydew melon though

[plain cypress]

Froot

[limber nacelle]

share some

im on the way!!!!!

[plain cypress]

It's already been jamified

[clear canyon]

True, i made a mix juice of blended strawberries, watermelon, brown sugar, kiwi and strawberry juice and apple juice

[azure topaz]

i am on the way even faster now

[night skiff]

I didn’t understand when you said there is no camps to be in for video cards

[plain cypress]

Surely you can pick your own in BC

[limber nacelle]

I dont mind slide it over brotha

[robust trail]

I may drink some of this too much

[limber nacelle]

yes but thats hard work

[clear canyon]

Thats like 30 bucks right there lmao

[rigid fjord]

basically no nvidia vs amd camps

[plain cypress]

I thought it was gonna be kryonaut

[azure topaz]

look at that hydration juice right there bros got an entire gram of salt per packet

[night skiff]

does the amd cards have problems with valorant?

[plain cypress]

I paid $60 to pick it myself

[rigid fjord]

are they good as people suggest?

[plain cypress]

18 pints worth

[robust trail]

I dunno, I don't use AMD cards but I'm sure it is fine.

[frigid blade]

I bought a motor thinking it was a PROPDRIVE v2 2835 1000KV (turns out the 2835 doesnt even exist) but its actually a PROPDRIVE v2 3542 1000K. I thought it was a 2830 which has 1402g static thrust with my battery, but the one im getting actually has 2017g static thrust with my battery

[limber nacelle]

tend to be fine with games

[clear canyon]

Thats so much 😭

[azure topaz]

oregon

[robust trail]

I get my ass kicked in the mountains a lot, this actually does help. Although it doesn't help if you get sick.

[azure topaz]

and hes close-ish to portlant

[rigid fjord]

nope, they don't

[azure topaz]

so even worse

[night skiff]

But does the nvidia have more cudas?

[plain cypress]

Tastes so much better than what's in the grocery stores

[azure topaz]

nvidia has cuda. amd doesnt have cuda period

[robust trail]

Only NVIDIA has CUDA

[azure topaz]

AMD has stream processors or whatever they prefer to call it

[clear canyon]

We are workin in growing our own but we still have at least a year or 2

[marble parrot]

@azure topaz I am back.

[night skiff]

So that’s crazy where u from? Why u say water is gross just if it your tap water

[azure topaz]

so is the computer exploded or what

[clear canyon]

Im not saying where im from but water is just gross, i need something that isnt bland

[limber nacelle]

what

water is the best i will fight you

[azure topaz]

how was your brief visit with insanity

[clear canyon]

I like water but the taste is bad

[rigid fjord]

not if you're in mexico or india

[night skiff]

WHAT YELLOW BERRYS? Never saw that in my life

[limber nacelle]

what

I will fight you

[sleek ibex]

It's fucking water

[clear canyon]

Bring it

https://tenor.com/view/reaction-funny-memes-gif-24899028

[night skiff]

What is camps?

[plain cypress]

Golden raspberries

[sleek ibex]

WDYM taste bland?!

[night skiff]

I translated and it’s not making sense

[limber nacelle]

I will roll over your dehydrated ass

[rigid fjord]

that depends on the country tbh

[robust trail]

I would suggest that if you want to save some money, have a good experience but also have many limitations on workstation type performance, AMD is a good choice. If you want the entire taco and don't mind spending more, meaning a good experience and no real limitations on workstation use, NVIDIA is the choice. I work for NVIDIA and for me I'd rather everyone have a good time, a good experience and not push a bais out there.

[plain cypress]

The other week I went and picked another 14pints of marrionberries

[clear canyon]

Jokes on you, my pee color is rarely yellow

[wheat torrent]

I have my drawing tablet and It has a stand and an arm mount,
the stand can be used on a desk while the arm mount is used well, as an arm mount

for the arm mount you can press a button and it releases the drawing tablet
BUT FOR SOME REASON THE STAND DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME SYSTEM....

this is just such dogshit design

[elder quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/ai-cursed-cursed-memes-hamster-meme-hamster-scream-gif-2348312434243033211

[robust trail]

great story

[wheat torrent]

I would love if they made it interchangeable

maybe there is some thirdparty option from somewhere in china

[magic mirage]

so my wallpaper asks for accuweather api to get the weather any ide how to get it

[limber nacelle]

huion?

[rigid fjord]

because one is a basic stand and the other can be combined with a monitor

[wheat torrent]

But I would probably need a new arm, a new stand, a new vesa mount

[wheat torrent]

yes

[limber nacelle]

lol

[wheat torrent]

It's all huion products

the arm mount is made for tablets rather than monitors, because it has 90 degree rotation

[marble parrot]

I saw things I can’t unsee.

[azure topaz]

yeah ram is a pretty dark deep drop off

[wheat torrent]

like I dont think they would of added a release button for monitors

[night skiff]

Ohhh , does amd have something similar?

[rigid fjord]

never saw you at the nearest Cthulhu meeting, so i doubt you've seen much, yet...

[limber nacelle]

5 bucks

[clear canyon]

5 bucks and 1 cent

[wheat torrent]

they have this thing also but again you need to screw it in

[clear canyon]

34 bucks and 1 cent

[night skiff]

Agreeee

[robust trail]

Yes, they use things like ROCM and OpenCompute stuff

OpenCL, OpenML etc etc

[clear canyon]

Diet water

[sleek ibex]

[wheat torrent]

I cant find any mount solution that I would truly be happy with

[rigid fjord]

make one

[wheat torrent]

handling around a 27 inch screen comes with its downsides

[gloomy sleet]

i will never verify my age as long as the online safety act is a thing

[limber nacelle]

make your own

[wheat torrent]

I think the ideal soultion for me would be to have the display stay flush inside of the desk

and be able to somehow raise it a bit when you want

[rigid fjord]

because you don't want them to know, you're not safe with anyone

[limber nacelle]

tbh I prefer the huion stands over the wacom ones

I think the wacom one is so dogshit

[gloomy sleet]

and it seems like that will be a long time until that happens

[wheat torrent]

Yeah it works, but it could be better solutions, better designed

[gloomy sleet]

what does this even mean

[limber nacelle]

you need a Pentab not a display then brotha

[wheat torrent]

Nahhh

[rigid fjord]

well i wouldn't let you try to teach any kids i have nor any nieces/nephews

[gloomy sleet]

that’s your personal choice even if its an odd one

[night skiff]

And that work to? Like if I stream I will stream on obs does it make difference being nvidia or amd

[buoyant bridge]

does anyone find it weird that the EU HATES nema connectors yet in computing they're basically the only power connector used

[gloomy sleet]

if you don’t want me teaching your kids i don’t to teach your kids

[limber nacelle]

its truth

[wheat torrent]

It is what it is to be honest

[buoyant bridge]

I just found the 6-50 and 6-40 are still used for PDUs in europe

[limber nacelle]

nah Pen displays are bad anyways

[wheat torrent]

I dont hate my current arm, its just that its a shame they are not interchangable with the stand

[gloomy sleet]

because i know you will be that one parent that just complains about everything

[limber nacelle]

save your posture

[wheat torrent]

like why did they made it so you can remove it so easily???

[marble parrot]

I’m doing an extended memory diagnosis on my PC after it keeps crashing every now and then and it’s been stuck at 21% on test 1 for a bit…

[wheat torrent]

why they added a press and pull solution if the stand doesnt support it

[azure topaz]

broski imma be real your computer is likely not stable

[wheat torrent]

I dont get it

[azure topaz]

i would go down to the kit only in slots 2/4 and see if your computer works

[buoyant bridge]

and C13/C14/C19/C20 are all nema spec connectors

[wheat torrent]

I guess I could pull the tablet out and place it flush on the desk if I want

[buoyant bridge]

(the C19/C20 is arguably the most dangerous nema spec connector just due to the fact its exact spec instead of over spec)

[robust trail]

OBS can leverage encoders on video cards, both AMD and NVIDIA have them available. I don't stream so I don't know what the quality is like for that use case.

[azure topaz]

if you need the 128GB capacity i cant really help you, however, if you can live with 64 for now, youd get the full speed out of your ram (at least if its 6000)

[limber nacelle]

and destroy your back? hell naw

I have a big huion display tablet and its literally killing my back so bad

[wheat torrent]

imagine the wobble on this

[marble parrot]

Is this extended diagnoses worth it?

[azure topaz]

no

[wheat torrent]

it looks very sturdy, but It will still wobble like crazy

[azure topaz]

it wont tell you anything in specific or really how to fix it besides replace ram

[buoyant bridge]

IEC 60320 C13 is really rare btw
NEMA 5-15 C13 is the one that is approved for use in most of the world

[night skiff]

So with one I’m fine? So I don’t see limitations here just the dlls and rt

[wheat torrent]

no issue on my end, I got the second biggest option, 24 inch
what do you have?

[limber nacelle]

24"

[night skiff]

Even the reflex 2 on nvidia is the same as amd right?

[wheat torrent]

My friend warned me that I am going to need a lot of desk space

[rigid fjord]

that's for americans more so, considering at least in the uk, we can do it with c13/14 and still be efficient without needing to change the mains connection itself

[wheat torrent]

he was very very right

[robust trail]

I don't know, I don't play games often. I would imagine they're comparable

[wheat torrent]

a vertical 24 inch monitor is alright, but when you rotate it, it takes up all your space

[limber nacelle]

for me it's because I have to lean over, due my keyboard being in front

[buoyant bridge]

the C19/C20 spec from the IEC isn't actually able to be used in 240V grids its only for 120V grids and can start fires on a 240V grid
the nema version is able to be used on a 240V grid though

[wheat torrent]

also 24 inch display, but 27 inch total size

[limber nacelle]

since I need to access my keyboard a lot to switch between tools

[wheat torrent]

I just move my keyboard under it

[robust trail]

mmmmmmm that pull

[wheat torrent]

or to the side

[buoyant bridge]

the IEC C19/C20 only calls for 16GA Solid or 14GA Stranded
you need 12GA solid or 10GA stranded for its power spec on a 240V grid
the NEMA one calls for 10GA solid or 8GA stranded

like the whole reason IEC C19/C20 spec cables are illegal in the UK is they don't actually meet the power demands of that connector and can easily start fires

[rigid fjord]

not quite, and for streaming, nvidia has the better encoders, though for streaming use, you could go intel instead if you liked

[night skiff]

Okk thx man

[buoyant bridge]

which is irrelevant either way since a C19/C20 NEMA or IEC spec still can draw more power then UK outlets provide

[rigid fjord]

tbh, totally doable for the uk

[limber nacelle]

won't work for me

[wheat torrent]

this is what im working with

[wheat torrent]

you always keep it there?

[limber nacelle]

old photo but general layout is the same

[night skiff]

I have amd cpu the 9800x3d just need to buy the gpu now

[limber nacelle]

yes

[wheat torrent]

the reason I got the arm is so I can move it out of the way whenever I want

[buoyant bridge]

240V 18A needs 12GA solid or 10GA stranded to not start a fire (that will still heat up though)

[robust trail]

I wouldn't get too far into the weeds with specs and software etc. They're both good brands, good cards etc. It really comes down to pure games or work in the front party in the back

[night skiff]

So the nvidia has less input than the amd?

[wheat torrent]

I just rotate it off of the desk when I dont use it

[night skiff]

So the nvidia have less input than amd

[limber nacelle]

my problem is more so when I am using it

[gloomy sleet]

i shoudl get a second monitor

[limber nacelle]

need my keyboard, so can't just toss it aside

[gloomy sleet]

it’s just that no one makes a desk that’s exactly my spaces size

[limber nacelle]

so im perma leaning over my desk

shrimp posture supreme

[wheat torrent]

old photo

[rigid fjord]

10awg is fairly doable, and tbh, i believe i've had my hands on that some time back

[buoyant bridge]

we use these cables for C19/C20 in the US because that connector is actually spec for 250V 18A, 120V 25A and 240V 17.5A (US)/240V 16.5A (EU)

[gloomy sleet]

i might buy like a thick plank of wood in the perfect size

[night skiff]

The lowest imput the better in fps games delay is very important

[gloomy sleet]

that looks goofy as hell

[wheat torrent]

@limber nacelle why did you choose this layout?

[buoyant bridge]

its a specialty outlet which doesn't even exist a spec for on UK grids and you just have to hardwire it at a conduit for the UK

[gloomy sleet]

the difference between the 2 is so minimal it’s not even a point against either

[limber nacelle]

zbrush

[charred kiln]

hmmm what should I get the pulsefire haste 2 or model o 2 pro

[wheat torrent]

I am also using zbrush 🤷‍♂️

doesn't it get tiring to lean so much

[gloomy sleet]

specialty outlets is a concept my european brain can’t comprehend

[limber nacelle]

yes

back hurty

[buoyant bridge]

the whole reason HW PDUs are really common in europe but basically non existant in the US is we have standardized connectors that can power it the UK does not nor does most of europe (except Germany)

[robust trail]

You would be surprised at how little that extra .005ms of latency doesn't matter.

[gloomy sleet]

we literally use the same outlet for everything

[limber nacelle]

very ow

[wheat torrent]

what the helllll

[gloomy sleet]

like i can’t name something that uses a different outlet for power

[buoyant bridge]

yeah thats why shit like server racks in the UK at data centers have to have their PDUs hard wired lol

[limber nacelle]

you dont have a landline?

[wheat torrent]

tbh you don't really have much space to do a different layout

[buoyant bridge]

and you can't run fullsized welders in your home

[gloomy sleet]

i don’t even know what a PDU is tbh

[wheat torrent]

not really

[buoyant bridge]

power delivery unit

[wheat torrent]

villages do have landlines in my country

[gloomy sleet]

your saying this like everyone has one in their home

[limber nacelle]

damn.

[robust trail]

power distribution unit

[gloomy sleet]

oh

[gloomy sleet]

close enough

[buoyant bridge]

like 60% of people in my state own a welder

[limber nacelle]

well in my family's case, I think they just want to retain the phone #

[wheat torrent]

fair

[gloomy sleet]

are we thinking of the same thing here?

[wheat torrent]

it was more poplar in <2010s

[buoyant bridge]

the metal working tool that heats up metal to connect joints?

[robust trail]

It's just a fancy word for a power strip that has relays to turn outlets on and off, some monitor usage and whatnot

[buoyant bridge]

nah

they're typically bus power and have more then one phase

[charred kiln]

tech chat aint teching

[limber nacelle]

does the arm ever wobble?

[robust trail]

That's... still a power strip

[gloomy sleet]

yeah we do have those here

[wheat torrent]

how do you find the buttons? do you use them?

[robust trail]

Servertech is the best fight me on it.

[gloomy sleet]

i’ve just never seen one in some guys house before

[wheat torrent]

It does

but its not a issue for me

[limber nacelle]

arghhhhhh not for me then

[night skiff]

Ohh okok I thought it would be cause nvidia made the video talking about the reflex 2 like it was very good and I didn’t saw amd talking about the latency

[limber nacelle]

I feel like I'd get so annoyed by that

[wheat torrent]

I usually rest my hands on it so it has pressure, OR I have it touch the desk

[rigid fjord]

if you're streaming, depending on what you're doing, nvidia's nvenc is the most ideal considering how it's easily compatible with multiple streaming sites

[gloomy sleet]

guys what wood surfaces would you recommend for building a desk on

i need something i can just simply cut to size

[limber nacelle]

for the display?

[night skiff]

Did amd made like a reflex 2 in their new gen?

[robust trail]

it is good but I mean... you're really getting into the woods with super ultra low latency high power draw options

[buoyant bridge]

a power strip according to the NEC, CEC, and a few other electrical athoritys is a single phase multi receptacle breaker while a PDU is a multi phase multi breaker switching unit

[limber nacelle]

I only use them for media control and some niche shortcuts

[robust trail]

https://tenor.com/view/nerd-ackchyually-actually-gif-11156171

[gloomy sleet]

i genuinely don’t notice the difference between reflex off on and on “boost” mode

i just leave it off because idk might fuck something up

[buoyant bridge]

this is technically considered a strip plug and I love it

[robust trail]

It won't but it will put you into a higher power state

[night skiff]

Obs and twitch or kick

[gloomy sleet]

how does this even work like what do you do with this

[buoyant bridge]

you connect it to 2 generators to create 2 phases

[rigid fjord]

for durability, oak, for not as much in durability but more cost effective and much lighter, beech

[gloomy sleet]

oh

[robust trail]

You can use this to push 220, a lot of EV owners have these

[limber nacelle]

I have a button that activates a script that kills all my huion drivers when it does some fuckery

[robust trail]

😄

[gloomy sleet]

oh that makes sense

[buoyant bridge]

its illegal to use that for indoor use in 39 states fyi

[limber nacelle]

since sometimes it does some funny things with the pointer on screen

[robust trail]

And?

[buoyant bridge]

the only NEC and CEC approved use for those is powering 240V equipment off generators

[buoyant bridge]

the fire department can condem your house

[gloomy sleet]

my dads EV just plugs into the wall

[robust trail]

Let 'em do it

[magic topaz]

did that thanks

[night skiff]

I don’t understand to much about this stuff I just want to have the best gpu for my money

[buoyant bridge]

we also setup higher power EV chargers lol

[gloomy sleet]

charges in like less then an hour

[robust trail]

I have one of these to get 220 if I'm in the middle of nowhere and can't get more than a 110 outlet 😄

[buoyant bridge]

like VMP is making home Tesla super chargers now

[gloomy sleet]

you can’t just plug it directly into a wall socket?

[buoyant bridge]

we can but its only L1/L1.5

[robust trail]

Straddle me some more power from two circuts

[night skiff]

What u mean might fuck something up?

[buoyant bridge]

the EU is limited to L1 with those chargers

[wheat torrent]

@limber nacelle

[gloomy sleet]

idk i just leave it off i don’t notice any difference

[buoyant bridge]

we can install L3 super chargers in our homes here lol

[gloomy sleet]

that seems a tad unnecessary

[limber nacelle]

this would drive me so mad

[buoyant bridge]

this is an L2 super charger and it charges my F150 lighting in 2 hours from dead to 75%

[gloomy sleet]

ehh

[wheat torrent]

I do not find it to be a issue

[rigid fjord]

obs can use it's own or make use of the encoders that's on the gpu, especially nvenc tbh

[night skiff]

Nahhh u need to notice brotha

[robust trail]

Do what? Isn't that maxed at 48A?

[night skiff]

So I might be ok whit the amd

[buoyant bridge]

80A

[robust trail]

jebus

[buoyant bridge]

you can get them in 80A without any permits

with a permit you can get them in upto 300A

[night skiff]

It’s almost 200€ diference so maybe I buy the amd

[robust trail]

You'll be happy 😄

[gloomy sleet]

if you have any issues with encoding an a310 is one of the best encoders you can get for like £100 rivals a 4090 in most cases

[wheat torrent]

I would love some buttons but I know that In reality I wouldnt really use them

there is also that numpad or whatever

[night skiff]

I just want to buy or the 9070xt or the 5070ti and when the 50 super series come out I sell the one that I bought and I buy one of the amd super

[robust trail]

I do more charging off from a Rivian wall charger than anything... but I barely drive. And a freakin 140kwh battery takes forever

[night skiff]

Wich one would be a better gpu to sell in second hand?

[rigid fjord]

you would be, the encoders have gotten better, not sure if it's as competitive against nvidia's own ones

[robust trail]

Don't chase the dragon

[wheat torrent]

you have the 24 pro version right @limber nacelle

[buoyant bridge]

is it a commercial one or just a consumer one

and you can only have the 80A plug in ones in some states (ohio, california, and vermont)

[robust trail]

Just consumer, I have 2500 miles on the R1S.. I've had it since January lol

[zinc widget]

My protect app is doing this even tho my UCG is already setup

[wheat torrent]

huion has like 3-4 models of the same display size

[night skiff]

What is a a310?

[buoyant bridge]

I got an F150 lightning to eventually put a flat bed on but I haven't got around to driving it

[gloomy sleet]

an intel gpu

[wheat torrent]

24 plus | 24 pro | 24 pro 4k

[buoyant bridge]

you can put a 8ft flat bed on the F150 lightning lol

[rigid fjord]

a low end intel dgpu, and actually decent for purely streaming use

[robust trail]

Most of that is just going to the airport and back.

[gloomy sleet]

yeah it’s a beast at encoding

[buoyant bridge]

I'd never buy the rivian because its not cab n chassis

[gloomy sleet]

idk recommend that if your amd card (i forgot which one you said) has any issues

[night skiff]

What u mean I want to buy a 5080supee maybe when the prices drop to 1000€

[gloomy sleet]

9070xt + a310 is a great pairing

[buoyant bridge]

it took the ford dealer 3 hours to talk me into an F150 EV instead of an F250 diesel because I hate anything thats a truck and not cab and chassis

[rigid fjord]

better chances of becoming a 6ft tall smurf

[limber nacelle]

I think so

[robust trail]

I mean chasing the hardware dragon is a fools errand - get you a good card and sit on it until it no longer does what you need it to 🙂

[limber nacelle]

mine is a refurb

[night skiff]

But I want to gamee

[buoyant bridge]

ah yeah I'd get a 50A charger if you have the money to lol

[robust trail]

I have some the gnarliest most badass GPUs on the planet and I game on a playstation portal

[rigid fjord]

you could game still using a different dgpu, and end up using something like an a310 as a dedicated streaming gpu

[night skiff]

How do I pair 2 gpus?

[buoyant bridge]

I think 60A is the highest you can go to without any permits in states where the NEMA 8-80 isn't approved for use on a single phase panel

[robust trail]

because... it does what i need it to

[gloomy sleet]

just plug them in

[buoyant bridge]

EVs changed north american electrical so much they designed a new higher power specialty connector because we somehow started maxing out 360V 70A connectors

[rigid fjord]

it would be the main gpu in the top slot, and the one for streaming in a lower slot

[robust trail]

I should be able to run anything I want, I had 2x 400A service lines to the house when I bought it. I disconnected one because I'm not running a blacksmith's shop in the garage lol

[night skiff]

HAAHAHAHAH I saw some videos talking about the 5080super saying that some leaks say that it will be around 999 and it will have 24vram

[buoyant bridge]

those are probably 3 phase so whenever your state approves the 8-80 you can get really whatever you want yeah

[robust trail]

The single 400A is still connected but I am almost all solar now

[dusk cosmos]

I’m wondering something soo for a while now my Firefox seems to be lagged. Tried chrome same problem. Wondering why.

[pastel ridge]

whats a good gpu to pair with ryzen 5 8400f?

[night skiff]

I wanted the 5080 but why not wait for the 5080super and meanwhile I buy the 9070xt and selll it latter

[rigid fjord]

would be funny and cool seeing you do some blacksmithing dude

[buoyant bridge]

I have 3 600A 3 phase service on my property

[night skiff]

Since I have a 1060 anything is a improvement

[limber nacelle]

might as well wait for the 6080 then

[robust trail]

I'm too broken lol I have thought about having some fun with a hammer 😄

[buoyant bridge]

one goes to the house/garage
one goes to the workshop
one goes to the buisness

[limber nacelle]

and then wait for the 7080 when the 6080 is out

and then wait for the 8080 when the 7080 is out

at that point you might as well wait for the 9080

[buoyant bridge]

oh fun fact AES defo sells lists of who has what service to tesla

[robust trail]

I mostly charge at like... 20A it is just maintenance charges for the most part. If I need a deep charge I scoot to the RAN charger for free juice lol

[night skiff]

Nahhh I waited to long for the 5080 prices to drop they drop a little but not much

[rigid fjord]

can be done on the cheap surprisingly dude

[buoyant bridge]

I've gotten contacted by tesla reps before about installing L3 super chargers because they thought my property was a public buisness 😭

[robust trail]

I have so many hobbies! lol

[buoyant bridge]

both my EVs are under a buisness and reguarly get driven cross country

[night skiff]

I’m using my 9800x3d with my 1060 since 4 months ago I neeed to buy a new gpu

[robust trail]

Do it, get a Rivian Adventure Network charger stuff installed

[rigid fjord]

collecting hobbies like kids want to collect pokémon 😉

[night skiff]

My pc stoped working the light of the cpu is on so I might be fucked

[robust trail]

We need chargers lol

[buoyant bridge]

i don't need it though the F150 lightning and Silverado EV both get charged fine on the 80A chargers for their use

they're not getting used 24/7 like the F450s and Silverado 5500s are

[robust trail]

But I need it

[buoyant bridge]

its a private property I just run a plumbing company and a shipping company here

first company to make these in a EV is in for some big money

[robust trail]

Ah

[buoyant bridge]

atleast a EV that works

[fallen sky]

GG just got $10 for free from telegram scammers

Dumbasses

[robust trail]

There was a place here... Lightning Motors? That did EV conversions

[fallen sky]

Easy block

[robust trail]

They did a pretty good job

[fallen sky]

making another telegram account

[buoyant bridge]

they're only for 1500 and 2500s

[robust trail]

Oh, I dunno. They were cool folks

[buoyant bridge]

I have a eddison kit reserved I'm gonna do to my K20 eventually

I wanted to do it to my K35 but they don't exist for DRW vehicles

[robust trail]

I just want to get some remote chargers out in the mountains. Even if they're solar powered and have limited charging capability

Like... I want to be able to go hambone offroad and have a chance to get a 50% charge if I really need it

[buoyant bridge]

we can't even logistically figure out how to get EV trucks running in cincy lmfao

how the fuck would that happen

like the 2 EV trucks we have rn are basically reserved for going to california or nevada where they can pretty comfortably charge every 300 or so miles

[robust trail]

Nice! THat's the dream.

[buoyant bridge]

looking into getting some EV cars though for surveyer shit though

[robust trail]

R2! 😄

Get you some R2s! I need my shares to be worth more than they are 😄

[buoyant bridge]

I unironically have a rep from rivian I need to talk to lol

[robust trail]

Do it you won't

[buoyant bridge]

I probably won't because they won't come talk to me I have to go to their building in another state

GM sends people out to talk here so does Ford whenever we need to do contracts

[robust trail]

hehe I am only leasing an R1S because I didn't want to jump into bed with them for the long haul... just in case it was poop

it isn't poop but I should have gotten the R1T

[buoyant bridge]

actually last time I had to replace vehicles GM delivered them too

slowly switching everything to GM just because their customer care is the best

[robust trail]

yeah rivian service is... not great

there's one in my state and it takes months to get in

[buoyant bridge]

I have personally owned GM trucks that have run for over a million miles and GM has STILL given me some parts for free on lmfao

they have given me 5 sets of injectors so far for my LB7 Duramax Sierra 3500

its not even under warranty and hasn't been as long as I owned it

[zinc widget]

GM has a bit of an advantage: they own a major aftermarket part manufacturer.

[buoyant bridge]

I can call them and get just about any part for that truck but some stuff like the injectors they have given me free

[buoyant bridge]

oh no they where original bosch injectors

[zinc widget]

GM owns ACDelco

[buoyant bridge]

ACDelco is first party

and for the Diesels bosch is too

they own some aftermarket parts manufacturers though

but ACDelco is a first party one

LDS and HDAS are GM owned too now though

[buoyant bridge]

if you own a LB7 or a REALLY EARLY LLY and complain a few times about your injectors costing $12K from bosch they'll just send you a brand new set of Bosch ones from the LBZ and a upfit kit

this is litterally why there are basically no LB7s that haven't had the injectors upfitted for LBZ injectors anymore

[buoyant bridge]

basically a no go for me

back when I had like 20 employees I just did all the vehicle work myself but I have right under 200 now and I have like 40 or so vehicles running that need to be running or I lose money so I just have them worked on by a dealer because I can usually get 1-2 day turn around

[rigid fjord]

hmm. something like a renology/victron setup combined with a ev specific charger ?

[robust trail]

Yeah but then I have to carry all that weight

I could deploy chargers out there myself but... I don't want to spend that much and go through all of the crap with the US govment

We did push for a charger in Nucla, CO and got one but it is just a turdpoint

[rigid fjord]

hmm, so no plot of land, and do your own private setup?

[robust trail]

Just have something out on some of the most popular trails, even if it is not going to give you much of a charge. 10, 25% can be the difference between getting off the trail and having to tow charge

[shadow crow]

Chat I bought a MX ergo mouse and its kinda banging

[stable beacon]

how did i get this micro blue screen

[tribal briar]

What the heck

[stable beacon]

idek which app it is

but it appeared as a little window it wasnt even my whole pc

[rigid fjord]

ah, that sucks, and i could think of a few ways to do it, sadly though they're really costly overall

[gleaming rose]

the app's developer wrote custom logic for it, just for shits and giggles

i did something similar on an old codebase of mine

[split shore]

how much would anyone pay for this used?

Lol

[wet scroll]

would an msi lightning 1080ti run fine on a 650w psu

[azure topaz]

depending on the 650w psu, yes

inb4 thermaltake smart white

[wet scroll]

it deepcool pf650

also... can the tempered glass shatter from the heat of the gpu

bc the glass in the ggpu area unless the fan is max is hot

[azure topaz]

no

[wet scroll]

alr

[bitter crater]

only if you replace the cooler on the gpu with the glass

[azure topaz]

PF is tier E, aka a bomb

[wet scroll]

oh.

[azure topaz]

id say a higher than not chance of the 1080ti or computer otherwise dying

[wet scroll]

i alr got the gpu...

[azure topaz]

wrong one take liquid iv nutrient facts

heres the right one

[azure topaz]

i recommend you buy a power supply that doesnt suck

especially for a gpu that draws almost 300w

[wet scroll]

ill bbe able to do that in a month

do i undervolt till then?

[azure topaz]

yeah bro play with god for a month

[wet scroll]

I DONT HAVE ANY MONNEY

[bitter crater]

im doing that for over 3 years, no problemo

[wet scroll]

💔

also my psu is rather new

[azure topaz]

a thermal take smart 700w brand new out of th ebox killed my rx 570 with no load

im not telling you to buy a new psu simply because i feel like it

[azure topaz]

i get that, so buying another 1080ti would fucking suck wouldnt it 😐

[wet scroll]

my rx 570 got killed bc i didnt clean the psu messh

[azure topaz]

by the same power supply?

[wet scroll]

are there precautions i can take till then bcs i wont afford to eat if i get a psu

[azure topaz]

as whats currently in your system

[azure topaz]

broski wait a fucking month before using it

[wet scroll]

no diff onne was 750w

[wet scroll]

I BEEN STARVINGG FOR A YEAR

gpu wise

[azure topaz]

yeah thats understandable. but again. do you want to wait another year

dont be stupid

you have the options in front of you, pick wisely

[clear canyon]

Why not upgrade? There are some budget options that curb stomp rx 500 series for 200 bucks

[azure topaz]

thats not the issue here, scroll up

[wet scroll]

ok lemme

[clear canyon]

Found the issue

[azure topaz]

anyways, theres perfectly usable power supplies brand new that can be had for less than 60$

[wet scroll]

search psus

[azure topaz]

A550BN, A650BN

[clear canyon]

A1500BN

[azure topaz]

its dependant heavily on your area, so youll have to tell me the country you live or make your own purchasing decisions based off the psu tierlist

[unique solstice]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/72RnTW/gigabyte-b850-aorus-elite-wifi7-atx-am5-motherboard-b850-aorus-elite-wifi7 is this board good for the 9950x?

[clear canyon]

Yeah

[wet scroll]

@unique solstice

[azure topaz]

any am5 board that doesnt have the bare minimum vrm layout without heatsinks is good enough for any am5 cpu

[unique solstice]

?

[clear canyon]

I have the b650 version of it

[azure topaz]

provided they dont explode or otherwise have defects that arent related to like vrm or real board design

[wet scroll]

meant @azure topaz

[unique solstice]

i had a not much more expensive x870 from asrock in my list but i do not wanna go asrock tbh

[clear canyon]

Besides thr r3 9100

Bc it doesn't exist

[wet scroll]

@azure topaz does this look good

[azure topaz]

C- tier, getting somewhere, about the minimum id purchase

your in egypt? i may be able to find something for you

[robust trail]

I turned it on! wooo

[wet scroll]

would it handle light overclockingn

[robust trail]

sad amount of DRAM 🙁

[wet scroll]

yes

@azure topaz does the left or right one look good

[azure topaz]

yoo those are good af deals too

id get the cheaper one, theyre both okay

[wet scroll]

ikr but like

non modular 💔

[azure topaz]

thats okay as long as it wont blow up

[wet scroll]

idm it

[azure topaz]

if you can stretch, get the middle one, if not, i htink youll be okay with whatever one you think is cooler/cheapest

[wet scroll]

where u from

[azure topaz]

america, but i for some reason often deal with egypt based people for computer help

so im oddly starting to learn decnt pricing

[azure topaz]

that asus tuf one is a tier B!!

[gloomy sleet]

yeah i noticed that

[azure topaz]

not even a bomb anymore id be okay using that

[gloomy sleet]

a solid 30% of people who ask for tech buying advice are from egypt here for some odd reason

[unique solstice]

im just about to buy parts for a 9950x build

nice

[gloomy sleet]

that’s such a random country honestly

[azure topaz]

yeah its weird i see a lot of indian based lists and etc but not really egypt until recently

im not complaining as usually theyre nice af and understanding

[wet scroll]

lawd ggetting that one, id assume ut can handle some overclockig right

[azure topaz]

def

[gloomy sleet]

i mean india kinda makes sense becuase there’s like nearly 2 billion people there

but egypt is about 100 million people less then the us

[azure topaz]

yeah

[gloomy sleet]

and doesn’t speak english

[wet scroll]

its bcs ppl at tech shops here make up shit

[azure topaz]

yeah im happy yall finding that out finally

[wet scroll]

200 million.

[gloomy sleet]

unlike india where they learn english in schools typically

[azure topaz]

even here, tech shops fucking suck

[gloomy sleet]

yeah the us has 350m

[azure topaz]

scammy/dont know more than u/shady business practices

[gloomy sleet]

tech shops suck everywhere

[azure topaz]

yeah not my favorite

[gloomy sleet]

why did warship take so long lmao

[wet scroll]

we are 110 miillionnn

annd we NEED to learn english to grad

[azure topaz]

although ive heard in thailand they are not bad and you can get good pricing on used local hw

[wet scroll]

educate yourself.

[azure topaz]

however idk ive never been first hand but idk i believe my thailand bros

[gloomy sleet]

my local tech shop calls themselves “lizards” which is an incredibly unfortunate name

[gloomy sleet]

really? dang

isn’t the main language there arabic

[wet scroll]

we need to learn arabic, english annd a 3rd language of ur choice to grad HS.

[gloomy sleet]

there’s also another called “PC paramedics”

which is the goofiest name ever

[wet scroll]

@azure topaz cann i unndervolt to be safe

[gloomy sleet]

dang you guys are worked to shit

[azure topaz]

you can undervolt if you want. its not any safer than not

[wet scroll]

i onnly find arabic hard

[wet scroll]

so undervolting or not wont make it safer

[azure topaz]

i mean technically it is "safer" but yoll probably run into more instability issues than if you were just leaving it on stock

[gloomy sleet]

i learnt portuguese and japanese in school wasn’t that bad honestly

[azure topaz]

undervolting means it draws less power

[gloomy sleet]

japanese is an easier language to learn then people say it is

[azure topaz]

if you have a psu that isnt a bomb, power draw isnt a concern unless its at the limit

[wet scroll]

instability ingame idm

[azure topaz]

(and even then not really)

[gloomy sleet]

also knowing japanese gives me an excuse to use goofy ass keycaps

[azure topaz]

its more annoying to crash in game than it is to draw an extra 30-50w for safety, but doing it for fun/to play with/efficiency reasons

your psu wont notice the difference is what im saying, nothing will be extended or shortened in terms of lifespan

theres an nvidia overclocking and undervolting guide pinned in #overclocking if youd like to follow that

[wet scroll]

thank you

ill prolly sleep

i didnt get to play bcs i wet to buy thge gpu after work

sigh, ill prolly wait

@azure topaz if i limit my fps to 60 would thqt make it any safer

[azure topaz]

transient spikes can happen anyways im sure so idk

[wet scroll]

No idea what those are

[azure topaz]

large but small in time spikes of power

[wet scroll]

Ohhh

[robust trail]

I just fired this silly thing up with this crazy GPU. I wanted to play helldivers lol

[stable beacon]

i just memorize them 💀

[gloomy sleet]

fair

[unique solstice]

is the build a productivity build ?

[robust trail]

I use it for everything but it mostly sits idle

[unique solstice]

lmaoo

[robust trail]

I have workstations for work stuff

[unique solstice]

what mobo did u choose

[robust trail]

This has some asus crosshair hero someshit in it

[limpid ivy]

lol the keycaps look nice with the board. Clean.

[gloomy sleet]

thanks

now suffer

[robust trail]

Usually I'd go with Aorus but I was building out of an intel board and couldn't find the Aorus board I wanted when I built this

[azure topaz]

i have discovered the 12? year old dell workstation i got for free is overclockable

[limpid ivy]

Huh not bad replacing the stock fan that came with my Deepcool AK500 with a Noctua A12x25 did reduce the temps but not by much lol.

[azure topaz]

it’s more than 12 it’s like 17

[limpid ivy]

👀 dell which one?

[azure topaz]

T5300 i think?

maybe T3500

[stable beacon]

my keycaps are naked, no keycap guards or anything it doesnt even have a volume knob

[azure topaz]

it’s LGA 1366, single CPU

[hushed tapir]

im looking to upgrade my gpu. i have a 3080 10gb rn and was wondering if going to the 5070 is worth the upgrade. my local walmart has the 5070 at msrp

[limpid ivy]

I forgot what dell I had but it was pretty much a server but verticle form.

[stable beacon]

5070 = no

[azure topaz]

i have a more modern one

[gloomy sleet]

open air keyboards are goofy

[hushed tapir]

why not if you dont mind me asking

[azure topaz]

i have a T5810, which is X99/C612

(lga 2011-3)

[stable beacon]

maybe if they were 500 i might be able to rescind my previous statement but the 9070 is definitely better

[limpid ivy]

I might find the old pic of the system, deep within my google photos lol

[hushed tapir]

its 550 at my walmart in store

[stable beacon]

a 3080 is still better than what i have 💀 if only i didnt have to do car payment i could get myself a 9070 this minute 😭

[hushed tapir]

it is a pny and i've never had a pny gpu so idk if its a good brand

[stable beacon]

personally i dont see a difference other than style or maybe bc i dont care

[hushed tapir]

personally i dont care about brands but i care about warranty support and some brands customer service suck.

[stable beacon]

true

but when i obliterated my gpu shroud and i lost the heatsink screws i just bought a new one and it works fine afaik

[robust trail]

Yes, PNY is a solid brand. A lot of the RTX Pro boards are built by PNY.

I have a bunch of boards built by PNY. Never seen one go up in smoke 🙂

[tardy bridge]

Should I turn off memory integrity to proceed with AI Suite?

[limber nacelle]

I've had 3 pny gpus

theyre fine

So my meme messed up i think so I bought a new one installed it I'm in bios what do I do now?

[fickle spindle]

Any homelab people who might be able to help me choose a decent network switch for my parent's house? I'm looking for: 24+ ports, at least gigabit speeds per port, not insanely loud, nothing exceptionally fancy. This is really just to replace 2 old unmanaged switches, but I'd really like the features of a manged one if possible.

I found a listing for the Brocade ICX7150-24-4X10GR that seems to fit the bill for like $140 shipped and was wondering if I was missing something since I'm a total noob with this stuff

just wanted to know whether yall would reccomend a high hz zowie or a 360hz oled for competitive cs/val. id care about image quality/colors, just want to minimize motion blur.

[azure topaz]

any am5 board thats b650 or better with decently sized heatsinks

[unique solstice]

u got any recommendations for a b850? idk if its worth mentioning that this is for a video editing build

and from the uk too

[azure topaz]

the same thing applies

i geniunely think every b850 is suitable for a 9950x

perhaps not the ds3h but even that isnt bad

[unique solstice]

but surely there are some known models which are trusted yk

just seen a lot of things about mobos that some may have bad power delivery

[azure topaz]

it is not that deep my friend motherboards are way more advancced than they were even 3 years ago

[zinc widget]

Anyone good with UniFi shit?

[hidden nymph]

nothing like a fresh copy of Windows 10 LTSC

[warm sage]

what should I do if i spilled water on my pc while it's on?

[hidden nymph]

turn it off unplug it, wipe the inside out and best u can do is pray and wait for it to dry

so wait like 2-3 days before using it again and make sure it is dry inside

[warm sage]

cool

[hidden nymph]

oh and check the board etc for corrosion before turning it on

if theres any corrosion clean it off using toothbrush and alcohol

[warm sage]

alright

btw I didn't spill water on my pc

anyone here used a thermal grizzly contact frame and/or thermal grizzly intel lga 1700 heatspreader ?

[limber nacelle]

no but the thermalright one is similar and much cheapsr

unless you want to spend money to support derbauer go get the tr one

[tawny knoll]

The thermalright one is a different design and wont fit with some coolers

[azure topaz]

hurray

[serene sphinx]

Quick question are Seagate Enterprise drives good? I’ll be using it mostly for video storage/editing

[lavish ledge]

I have a 2070 Super with a Ryzen 7 3700X and I want to switch out to a Radeon GPU because I want to run linux and not have to deal with the Nvidia drivers bullshit. Any advice for what Radeon GPU to get & how to make this swap happen for the least amount of money? I don't mind selling the video card but I have no idea what it would involve to sell one

I don't need an upgrade but I would prefer slightly more performance rather than slightly less

looking for similar, but it depends on what the difference in cost would be. Also depends on how much I could make from selling my current video card

[wraith bone]

have the thermalright one but i have eventually found out its a pain to install the contact frame while the mobo is inside the pc case and you ahve to hold the lga socket backplate with one hand on the backside of the mobo and screw the ocntact frame with the other hand at the same time , and the screws need to be jsut tight enough and not too much or less , else it will have various booting or other issues especially if you OC your system , i also repalce thermal paste and/or LM every 6 months or a year so have to remove the cpu from the contact frame so it becomes a hassel , i have delidded my cpu btw so have to be extra careful while screwing the contact frame

[lavish ledge]

mm okay

[wraith bone]

the stock ilm is easy and solid tbh

[lavish ledge]

thanks

[wraith bone]

gonna give TG contact frame a try

[lavish ledge]

Do you know how I would best go about selling my 2070S?

[formal sonnet]

Take good photos, write up a good description, then post it for sale on Craigslist, Kijiji, Used.ca, Facebook Marketplace, or whatever platforms are available in your local area.

[azure topaz]

the stock contact frame wont typically improve temperatures on a brand new cpu

it bends over time

also if you have a reasonable motherboard the backplate for the socket will be sticky enough to stay on lol

[empty quartz]

After 2 years, my cpu hasn’t bent

[azure topaz]

it like objectively has if youre not on a contact frame

[wraith bone]

ya it was sticky but now it isnt

the contact frame not only improves temps by 3/4 degree C but it also provides overall more contact to the cooler

[trim gyro]

wait

[tardy bridge]

so i built my computer today and its constantally stuttering and i dont know how to fix it

pls lmk what I do to fix this

[formal sonnet]

Um. PC parts generate heat. It's absolutely normal to feel warm air from an electronic device.

Unless your temperatures are overheating, there is no cause for concern and nothing to fix.

bro really asked why computer generated heat

[wispy forum]

I am nowhere even close near overheating even on the craziest performance enhanced games

imma give em a 100usd optiplex

because it does run steam

[tulip sparrow]

Anything would run steam honestly lol

[grizzled frost]

you could probably get a pi4 to run steam

[peak knot]

if your blowing cold air that means your pc isnt transferring heat away from the components

[grizzled frost]

100w of component power draw means 100w of heat has to be dissipated into the room somehow

every bit of power consumed means heat produced that has to end up in the room

this is my daily dissipating heat through its first radiator

[tulip sparrow]

I have a standard air cooler in my amd system

[peak knot]

yeah even still it will push out warm air

[sinful cobalt]

i want an interesting that’ll run steam

trade him a 2nd gen platform

[tulip sparrow]

Pop air solid so plenty of air flow to the case itself

[peak knot]

i love my thermal camera for showing things like the radiator dissipating heat

it can visually show concepts to people

[tulip sparrow]

My 3rd gen running bazzite will give him nothing but steam LOL

[peak knot]

glad i just spent an hour gaming

got a toasty rig to show as an example

[hidden nymph]

i could give him a Dell Chromebook, that technically runs Steam

not very well.

but it would run.

[peak knot]

i could give him my athlon 64x2 server with a copper mug and some of my ln2, that makes steam

lol

[tulip sparrow]

LOL

[hidden nymph]

but the steam has to be running

[peak knot]

it is running steam

[hidden nymph]

youll need a fan to make the steam run faster

[peak knot]

the ln2 steam is running all over the place

[sinful cobalt]

he said run steam not walk steam

[tulip sparrow]

Is that steam or fog tho?

[hidden nymph]

you could take a very very hot poop, and it be steaming and hand it to him

[peak knot]

technically it is steam as it is made by the boiling of liquid nitrogen

[hidden nymph]

there is steam.

[tulip sparrow]

the term steaming pile of poop exists for a reason lol

[real lantern]

pretty tasty

[hidden nymph]

yk i didnt think abt using that

i shouldve. but i didnt.

[peak knot]

should be from eating the chicken in his picture

[hidden nymph]

lowk i might go get this

[gray copper]

Is ryzen 7 5700x3d a good option for 300 eur?

[pliant edge]

This what sums up my life at this current point hahaha

[vapid nimbus]

as a upgrade or to build fresh

[gray copper]

Upgrade

[pliant edge]

no! grab a used 5800x3d

that chip will continue to hold its value long down the road

[gray copper]

Ill have to see if there are any

[vapid nimbus]

i agree w noah also 300 euros seems a little steep

[tardy badger]

Hey guys , for context i have a 9070 and 7600 and ive been playing rainbow six and I’ve noticed that my cou is running all time at 100% utilization while my gpu is at 90-92, aswell as sometimes my game freezes.. would that mean im putting too much load on my cpu and i should upgrade? Or any other reason?

[pliant edge]

5800x3d is about 300 usd

thats used price! the 5800x3d holds STRONG am4 is actually reliable unlike intel

[vapid nimbus]

what res

[tardy badger]

1920x1080

"lightly Bent Pins"

[vapid nimbus]

100% is normal idk the stuttering idk try turning on vsyc and see if that fixes it

[young latch]

ummmm

[pliant edge]

POV avarage amd gpu

[vapid nimbus]

bruhs got a grudge

[vapid nimbus]

new thermal paste?

[young latch]

i now get barely 60 fps in games lol

[pliant edge]

2 years of dealing with drivers causeing black screens after a update
yeah a grudge i guess

nitro+ couldent even tame the 580 8gb

[young latch]

ptm and new pads prob

[vapid nimbus]

the newer gpus drivers are decent

[pliant edge]

Do I touch the little round things that say 600V??

[vapid nimbus]

that sucks tho

[gray copper]

I could get ryzen 7 5700x3d for 100 eur

[young latch]

lick it

[pliant edge]

but thats not close to my heart :(

[vapid nimbus]

suck on em

[young latch]

my spicy metal

[unreal cosmos]

Crank the graphics settings and resolution

[pliant edge]

POV Samsung
Empty garbage
85 inch 2022 tv

[unreal cosmos]

I don't think you know what POV means

[pliant edge]

upgrade to 1440p... 1080p is like so 10 years ago

[pliant edge]

point of view

[young latch]

s series?

[unreal cosmos]

Yeah and POV Samsung how?

You're looking from your own POV in that picture

[pliant edge]

michael shush

[vapid nimbus]

1080p is fine but with a 9070 1440p is def the move

[unreal cosmos]

I will correct incorrect information if I see it

[pliant edge]

that funny look at him

[unreal cosmos]

The reason the TV is empty is because there's nothing to put in there

What would you have Samsung fill it with?

[pliant edge]

idk a backlight driver board?

[unreal cosmos]

Is that not what's in there now?

[pliant edge]

samsung is known for making some of the worst tv's

[vapid nimbus]

maybe pay more for the one with one

[unreal cosmos]

I'm fairly sure the TV came with one

[pliant edge]

well yeah thats why i always recomend sony

[vapid nimbus]

lg is good for more budget

[unreal cosmos]

If the TV didn't have a backlight, some TV

[pliant edge]

yeah lg is great
they had issues with 2019 models with failing lcd'ss

[pliant edge]

its so they can drive each led by itself for dimming zones

[unreal cosmos]

Well then get the better TV

[vapid nimbus]

had backlight i he means contorlable backlight

[unreal cosmos]

Said board also wouldn't take up all the space

[young latch]

i bought a u8 because of rtings lol

[unreal cosmos]

The space is because it's an 85 inch panel

[vapid nimbus]

fr

[pliant edge]

here is your counter
this board is bigger then a atx motherboard....
sony XBR-65Z9D

65 inch tv

granted samsung cheaps out on backlights and puts 2 dinky ass strips in a 85 inch tv

[unreal cosmos]

How does that matter? If Samsung made a denser board that's better from their point of view

[pliant edge]

you arent getting the point
samsung doesnt have any at all

[unreal cosmos]

I don't see how filling empty space with PCB is any indication of quality

[pliant edge]

its just a dumb 100 volt power supply

you must be rage baiting

[crimson cairn]

they should make the the actual components larger to save money

[unreal cosmos]

I'm not, I'm merely confused at what you're trying to say

[pliant edge]

its ok brain cells are hard to obtain nowadays

[vapid nimbus]

hes saying samgsung is shit and the empty disgn was just to say the dont put the right parts in them

[unreal cosmos]

If the point is that Samsung should have more dimming zones, sure that's valid. But that's uncorrelated with how large the PCB is for the backlight driver

If they added more, sure it might be slightly larger but it certainly wouldn't fill the entire space behind the panel

[pliant edge]

they would be better off with any sort of protection for failing backlights then a lvds board...
idk iv fixxed 120 tv's so far and im sure your input is more knowagable

[unreal cosmos]

if theyre cheaping out on components that's one thing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[pliant edge]

every single compeny has some sort of protection for over current... but samsung
even the garbage tcl does

[unreal cosmos]

However... there are other, better, methods to measure that than PCB size

[night coral]

Thoughts on thermalright case fans

?

[pliant edge]

there fine
buy what fits your need and budget

[night coral]

Great

[pliant edge]

a fan is a fan at the end of the day
just dont buy evga fans with the weird cutout there whiny

actually youd have to buy a entire aio for that lol nvm

avoid these things

[night coral]

Do u think i could daisy chain 1x 120mm fan with 2x 140mm fans with the 120 in the back and the 140s in the front?

[pliant edge]

run it through a fan hub if im thinking of your question correctly

[night coral]

Cause the aio thats coming in is an nzxt kraken. I think it comes with a hub but im not sure if its compatible with other fans

No idea, here's the list if you want to take a quick peak

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/zTFZyW

[pliant edge]

get a arctic freezer
they are great budget friendly aio's

[night coral]

the case i have isn't on pcpp so I just replaced it with something random

[pliant edge]

white build??

[night coral]

Yeah were going for aesthetics

I have a LF3 in my main rig

[night coral]

Yes

[pliant edge]

white builds are hard!

[night coral]

This one is crazy good though

[night coral]

I have some components already

[pliant edge]

im so out of my realm when it comes to white pc parts i wont even lie

[night coral]

I went with the expensive mobo and 850w psu for future upgradability. Just drop a new cpu/gpu and should be good to go

Its going to be very white

[pliant edge]

i both hate/love how they did the wood accents on that case

[night coral]

We love it honestly

Exclusive case only available in canada

[pliant edge]

i could 100% learn to love it

[night coral]

Great price, looks like great airflow

[pliant edge]

thats lovely! always refreashing to see a non glass front panel!

or as we love to say a "tiktoker case"

[night coral]

I was close to getting a fish tank but honestly couldn't get myself to do it

[pliant edge]

nah L airflow bro

[night coral]

I have a lian li lancool 216 and man is this case amazing

200mm chonkers in the front

[pliant edge]

i need to replace my 5000D i want somthing smaller

[night coral]

My only gripe with the new case i got is cable management might be difficult

[vapid nimbus]

how much smaller

[pliant edge]

erm 4000d size maybe??

[night coral]

that was the first case I built in and I must say honestly

Not a fan

[vapid nimbus]

i aint got anything then im more of a itx guy

[pliant edge]

idek im so fing indecieze

[night coral]

Based

[pliant edge]

Install this for me??

[night coral]

Sff is so cool, I was going to do an itx pink build for gf but it was too difficult to nail the performance and aesthetics for the budget

[vapid nimbus]

yeah itx tax is real

[night coral]

Worth it though

[vapid nimbus]

definitly

[night coral]

How do u guys feel about pre applied thermal paste

[vapid nimbus]

its good just dont touch it

[pliant edge]

dont lie anyone lie to you
its perfectly fine!!!!

same with used power supplys

[vapid nimbus]

depends how old

and if you can get the wrrenty

[pliant edge]

i got a ax1000i or some gold 12000 watt corsair psu

[night coral]

oh really used psus are okay? That can save me a little chunk of change

[pliant edge]

get a decent quaitly and brand of psu
corsair/evga

[night coral]

I saw an RM850 (2021 model i think)? For like 100 bucks

[pliant edge]

ebay.com 😉

[vapid nimbus]

only if they are 1-2 years old

[night coral]

but no atx 3 pcie 5

[pliant edge]

got a buddy running 8 year old evga 1000gq's on mining setups 24/7 100% load no failures

[night coral]

Im just going to bite the bullet for the msi unit

for 'future proofing'

[pliant edge]

the componets are easily rated for 15-20 years the only degrade is capictors

and a bit to mosfets/bridges but those dont degrade like capictors do

[vapid nimbus]

its just you dont rlly know what happend to it

[pliant edge]

see if you can fit a 1000 watt into the budget

[vapid nimbus]

could have been dropped or smthing

[pliant edge]

IF its built correctly a drop will do nothing to a power supply

[vapid nimbus]

SHOULDNT do anything

[pliant edge]

biggest issue would be the 120 volt ac coming in sagging below like 115 or brown outs

[night coral]

dude u know ur shit about psus

Thoughts on this unit? @pliant edge

[pliant edge]

no im just a dummy who has some experience
also 330 volt hurts

[night coral]

Not on the spl list

Cant find any info about reliability

[pliant edge]

looks like a bomb

[vapid nimbus]

if the capaciters are japanese it should be fine

[pliant edge]

i would trust my life with a evga or corsair
nothing else!

nichicon or rubicon 😋

[vapid nimbus]

silver stone?

[night coral]

Yeah I've owned two corsair units and they're great

Survived a beating too, many power outages

Not sure if that can affect a psu

[bronze summit]

Why do we keep shopping for bombs?

[night coral]

No ups, just a power bar lol

[night coral]

I've settled for an msi unit

[vapid nimbus]

dell ussually uses japanese capacitors should be fine if not over 10yrs old

[thorn escarp]

help

[pliant edge]

This is from core 2 duo era lol

[thorn escarp]

my pc sounds like i can hear the sound of current flowing for some reason

it's really weird

should i be worried about a loose connection?

[night coral]

JAPANESE 105⁰ CAPACITORS

[vapid nimbus]

check all of them to be sure

[thorn escarp]

could it just be coil whine?

it's just a 5060 i dont think it should have that right?

[vapid nimbus]

maybe but i would check rather spend 15mins then have a burn down house yk

[thorn escarp]

yeye but what should i check

the ones on the mobo?

[vapid nimbus]

all the connections fans mobo psu all of them

[thorn escarp]

gotcha

[pliant edge]

Use your nose to check… if smell like burnt unplug from wall

[vapid nimbus]

also check for loose screws

[vapid nimbus]

yeah it def a loose wire if u can smell it

[pliant edge]

loose screws wont do it

unless he moves it alot

[vapid nimbus]

or one fell i the psu then he smash his desk from raging in cs2

[pliant edge]

even then you gotta really knock stuff around to cause that! unless he got that garbage microfit 3.0 12 pin...

[thorn escarp]

no there's nothing like that

[vapid nimbus]

lol yeah

[thorn escarp]

also the only screws i didnt tighten too much were the mobo stand off ones

everything else is as tight as possible

[pliant edge]

check and make sure there is no smell
smell=unplug
no smell=fine
