(Samsung)

[pale flint]

that true

but they got others things more expensive

[honest fable]

@slender mauve hey can u check dms rq

[rigid fjord]

if you're sticking to 1080p, it definitely can be

[fickle ivy]

my fucking mic never works on discord for some reason

[pale flint]

why not

[fickle ivy]

im tryna play a game with my friend, tried 2 mics, tried restarting my browser, my mic works on other websites but not discord

[vast bronze]

cooler recommendations for a 5700x?

[honest fable]

@slender mauve please

[barren breach]

I cube of ice

[barren breach]

Thermalright assassin

[vast bronze]

IdkAboutThat either

[rigid fjord]

you'd have a laugh about dell laptop chargers then

[pale flint]

check settings?

[vast bronze]

ok

[empty quartz]

They really only have 2 things that are unreasonably priced (im counting the rack mount mac pro as just an option)

[barren breach]

I don’t think the 5700x is that hard to keep cool

[kindred halo]

I guess, although I MIGHT be able to get the 3060 for crazy cheap

[pale flint]

so you wanna use the headset mic

[fickle ivy]

yes

[pale flint]

hmm

[honest fable]

@slender mauve

[barren breach]

I don’t think the 5700x is that hard to keep cool, can do like the basic assassin probably, instead of the peerless

$17 or whatever it is

[pale flint]

make sure

its not set to push to talk

[honest fable]

@slender mauve

[fickle ivy]

Nope

[pale flint]

also

[fickle ivy]

Fuck this bs I'm restarting my laptop

[pale flint]

check if you blocked discord from using mic

[fickle ivy]

Why does technology never just work for me

[pale flint]

common thing on browser

[fickle ivy]

Nope, Google chrome says it's usingnit

[pale flint]

hmmm

[random junco]

Logitech keyboards and mice, but apparently they bought a screwdriver from the hotel themselves which is hilarious 😂

[kindred halo]

@rigid fjord Some guy listed his 3060 (without a price) with an "error" - I googled it and it's just a driver error / error from his end (image attached), which I assume wouldn't carry over to mine
I could probably get it for a good price

[odd linden]

lol

[pale flint]

mac itself isnt but its storage upgrade is

macbook is only thing i like from apple

their phones arent bad but i dont like the software

same goes for macbooks but there are some things that change my mind

[rigid fjord]

guess which one is 45w, 65w and 130w dude @empty quartz

[pale flint]

chonky is 130

cant tell form the pic

[fickle ivy]

oml

[pale flint]

they all seem same size but different size

[pale flint]

try all of them

💔

[upbeat sage]

Anyone have any good leads on controllers / alternatives to control argb fans from a software without the need of an argb header?
For the life of me can't find anything that's not sold out, not made anymore or controlled by a remote.

[rigid fjord]

nope, that just means updating/reinstalling the drivers

[rigid fjord]

nope

[kindred halo]

So it's purely a driver issue?

[fickle ivy]

it was the headset but google chrome decided to default to this random ass input htat i dont even know where it came from

[pale flint]

oh

[pale flint]

its not google

its discord lmao

oh wait nvm

yeah its actually google my bad

[fickle ivy]

no, i had my settings in discord right but had to go to my google chrome settings to select the right input

[pale flint]

hmm yeah got it

i never used discord browser

[rigid fjord]

pretty much dude

[fickle ivy]

im on someone elses laptop and would rather not have us constantly have to swap discord accounts

[kindred halo]

I'll just DDU and then reinstall the drivers

[pale flint]

oh makes sense

[kindred halo]

I assume I should install Dec 2024 drivers bc 2025ers are unstable, no?

[pale flint]

yeah didnt know google had its own input device menu

[warped mist]

I fking hate the new yt player
does anybody have an idea how to recover the old
I use the extension "Enhancer for Youtube" but it has no such option

[simple dagger]

WAN desk pad arrived. POG

[random junco]

unless you can find a legit extension to change the appearance, not possible

[odd linden]

hm?

wdym? whats new?

[rigid fjord]

the wide one in the 3rd pic is 130w, the tiny narrow one in the first pic is 45w, and the middle pic is 65w

[rigid fjord]

that'll be wise to do, i would suggest 566 to be used

[vast forge]

my new CPU and mb wont work

sad

[kindred halo]

Got a wrench thrown into the mix

The guy lives too far away

[pale flint]

i cant tell the sizes

they same same size but different shape

[kindred halo]

My solution was to simply talk to 5 different sellers

[pale flint]

in pic

[kindred halo]

2x 3060 12gbs, 2x 6600 XTs, 1x 2080

And 1x 2080 Ti

[vast forge]

can someone help me with my new CPU and mb? the CPU light is red and the dram is yellow, I got an MSI x870e edge wifi ti and an AMD 9800x3d. it's just giving me a code "EC" which means nothing and it won't post anything on the monitor

NVM got it, ram was in 1 and 3 and not 2 and 4

[honest fable]

@slender mauve

[rigid fjord]

different shapes and sizes tbh,

[pale flint]

hmm yeah

havent see the 65 watt one

thats why i said its 130

[rigid fjord]

i've seen a 90w one that looks exactly the same as the 65w one as well

though, now they've changed the design again

[pale flint]

oh

[rigid fjord]

looks like this

[pale flint]

i have seen this

this is newer design

i have only seen smaller version of it tho

[rigid fjord]

usb C version of the same 90w one

[nova solstice]

Hey I am trying to put a 2.5 inch drive in this minipc but I can't find the sata power connector.
Definitely should have one as it has mounting holes for 2.5 drives

[rigid fjord]

usually it's built in on the ribbon cable for it

[pale flint]

wow

havent seen that version

[rigid fjord]

this was the older original design for both 65w and 90w versions

[nova solstice]

Only have a normal sata cable. Probably need to buy a new cable then. Where would I need to plug power on the board?

[pale flint]

seems fimiliar

ah yes

the barrel charger

idk what its called

[rigid fjord]

you will need to read the manual for it, having said that, it looks like it's the white connector possibly here for power

[pale flint]

nothing beats a jet 2 holiday

[nova solstice]

K thanks. Will try to look up the manual. Don't have one printed haha. Thanks for your help

[knotty iris]

should i bid on a 980 ti for 40

its tested

[rigid fjord]

looks like a custom cable so if it didn't come with the mini pc, you need to find one specific to it's pinout

[pale flint]

🐧

i dont shut down my laptop and i rarely restart it

is that bad?

[mint osprey]

[rigid fjord]

i've seen worser

[pale flint]

i have done 60+ days

wait did i

i dont remember

when i went for vacation did i shut it down or not

[unreal cosmos]

I wonder if I'm at 300 yet

[pale flint]

but yeah i have gone 30 days without a restart at max on my old lappy

[rigid fjord]

i've seen it when people have done 300+ days tbh

[pale flint]

i start noticing glitching and bugs

after some time

[rigid fjord]

i was about to hit 60 odd days myself til an update happened

[random gyro]

im buying these fans for my AIO. do i need to get forward or reverse airflow if its on the top of the case?
https://www.amazon.de/-/en/gp/product/B0DQ9KTTPL/ref=ewc_pr_img_2?smid=A384JU52IWYC1R

[pale flint]

i dont really wanan risk my laptop for some record

[unreal cosmos]

8 days shy of 300

[rigid fjord]

no, you'd want reverse flow for the bottom/front or side of a case, only top and rear you'd go with normal fans

[random gyro]

so if i need 6 intake and 3 exhaust fans i select 2x reverse and 1x forward?

[rigid fjord]

what aio you using, and what case?

[random gyro]

Thermalright Mjolnir Vision 360 and FOIFKIN F300

[inland canopy]

why

[unreal cosmos]

Why not? It's just a ssh jumpbox

[inland canopy]

Ah

I thought its a server

[empty quartz]

Almost 1000km away from home, and im still in the same fucking province

[unreal cosmos]

My home server has been up 97 days

[inland canopy]

Thats

Something

[rigid fjord]

ah, so you'd want 1 normal/forward for the rear and at least 2 reverse flow for the bottom of the case, the side fans that are preinstalled are normal/forward ones

[inland canopy]

I never went further than around 24 days on my laptop

[unreal cosmos]

When I'm around I do two weeks

[random gyro]

nah im replacing the fans that come with the case. its just that they come in packs of 3

[unreal cosmos]

Now I'm 2000 miles from it so I just ignore it

[inland canopy]

Nice

[rigid fjord]

so that means 4 normal fans, and 5-6 reverse flow fans then

[random gyro]

alright thanks

[pale flint]

wildfire 🔥

[random gyro]

also how important is that 1 rear fan at the left if i already have so many fans

is it worth buying that 1 extra fan?

[rigid fjord]

not that important, but you'd want the airflow in the case to be like this

[random gyro]

so i can skip it and still be good?

im slowly getting over my original budget with all this decor

[rigid fjord]

yeah, you got a pcpp link of your parts?

[random gyro]

not really but ive already got a build set. im just looking for cases and stuff now

[cunning flume]

what could my pc randomly blue screening mean?

[random gyro]

many things

maybe CPU temps too high?

[cunning flume]

i dont think could it be because of a virus?

[rigid fjord]

the error is marked on the blue screen itself

[random gyro]

that really depends. what could a virus possibly do to your components that would make your pc bluescreen

[rigid fjord]

also, #1027757333117415424

[buoyant vapor]

Is ts good for a gt730

[cunning flume]

its just that my email needs verify to log me in now so i thout i have some malware

[somber mason]

anyone know any software that can allow me to see network usage on my pc and whats using what? (task manager shows all of my usage going thru pairvpn. which is an app that allows your phone to act as a server for a vpn, so task manager just shows all the usage as pairvpn) tryna figure out if i have some virus

[rigid fjord]

wireshark could be used to see what's being accessed on the network, there's other software like it you can use, other than that nope

[abstract wigeon]

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CMWJSQMB/ gonna pull the trigger on this if nobody objects

[merry dagger]

Why everyone talking and reviewing only 9800X3D and so few discussions and reviews about 9900X3D...

[gleaming rose]

because the 9800x3d is the gaming specific chip

most people use their PCs for gaming
go figure

[merry dagger]

I bought 9900x3d for my pc because i am also using it as a workstation, besides gaming
But surprised how few discussions about it

I was looking for optimal bios settings

[cunning flume]

am i cooked i thout i was stealing my friends email for fun but it actualy was his dads and his dad works as a soldier. it happened a year ago i thout nothing would happen but i got a verification code for that email like 3 days ago

[trim gyro]

9900X3D is an unfortunate product, maybe if it was priced $450 it'd be more fair

straight up worse than 9800X3D in gaming, unless the game can make use of all 12 cores

[clear canyon]

Iv got a while till I need to upgrade my 7800x3d lol

[random gyro]

do i need a mobo with pcie5 x16 for my rx 9070xt or is a pcie4 good?

[lean plaza]

i got cheap 2666 ram running at 3600 and it is waorking fine should i j leave it at that it is giving me a ton of extra fps

[lean plaza]

pcie4 is good

u wont get huge performance boost

[rigid fjord]

because a 9800x3d = 8c 16t single ccd, meanwhile a 9900x3d = 6c 12t ccd + 6c 12t x3d cached ccd

[random gyro]

alright

[rigid fjord]

and even then, the 9900x3d doesn't beat a 9800x3d for gaming

[gleaming rose]

you need to find those yourself, no two chips are alike

[ebon marlin]

Isn't that impossible though

[random gyro]

Is there a way to set a Display delay on Windows? To synchronize Bluetooth Headphones with the Display. I know you can do this in Video Players, but i don't know If its possible on whole Windows in General. I know there will be an Input delay while using mouse and stuff to Navigate, but i would only use it while watching stuff

[plush ether]

Hey guys i need help. Im unable to log in into my pc. It says my PIN isn’t available and when i try to enter my password its says my pc isn’t connected to the internet eve though it is. Need help ASAP

[trim gyro]

the last time I had that same issue I reinstalled windows

[plush ether]

great💀

My laptop is also down atm

[boreal vine]

using this cult ahhh keyboard

and it's just as I expected

and as I remember

[tidal trail]

This normal?

I have never opened this gpu a day in my life

[boreal vine]

what GPU is it?

[tidal trail]

5070ti eagle oc

[boreal vine]

if it's amd, not surprised

if it's nvidia, it's part of the leaking problem for the memory on gigabyte GPUs

check memory temp, if bad then RMA

I'm also assuming that you're running this card vertical right?

[tidal trail]

Yea it’s in the t1

[boreal vine]

yeah I'd RMA it

return it and get another brand

go for MSI

[tidal trail]

So hard to get another gpu tho

[tidal trail]

Ventus ocer eagle?

Vanguard I think is too beefy for my case

[boreal vine]

in this generation, yes

5k gigabyte is cheeks

atleast for the early ones anyways

[tidal trail]

Damn

[boreal vine]

also flying to manchester, my client wants to have their PC hand delivered

[tidal trail]

That’s a insane request

[boreal vine]

https://tenor.com/view/fell-gif-11242683397767497522

[tidal trail]

Is uh rma process easy..? I assume not since it’s a $900 card

Should I even bother checking temps or jsut straight up request rma

[boreal vine]

I wish i was joking as well

just paid for the flights today

[tidal trail]

They will pay you back right…?

[boreal vine]

alr paid for

[clear canyon]

Gbp?

[random junco]

great british pounds

[rigid fjord]

cheap tbf, just make sure they don't stiff ya

[clear canyon]

https://tenor.com/view/jensen-ackles-pointing-smiling-supernatural-dean-winchester-gif-11379335554187487189

[random junco]

lol

[boreal vine]

thats one of the flights

going logan air then easy jet for return

[boreal vine]

they won't otherwise their 4090 is getting repo'd

[bleak ledge]

I despise Facebook so much 😑

[clear canyon]

Dystopian

[bleak ledge]

I just want to access marketplace to see if the phone I lost is being sold by someone

Guess I'll never know

[random junco]

how'd u lose ur phone

[bleak ledge]

Left it on the wall outside my house lol

[random junco]

well if youre 18+ i dont see there being a problem with the verification

[bleak ledge]

It's actually a win because it was quite badly cracked and I can claim a new one through insurance now I've lost it

[random junco]

you have phone insurance?

[bleak ledge]

My bank offers phone insurance

[gloomy sleet]

what do they want to to do?? just pull up and drop the pc there or what

[random junco]

thats sweet

[gloomy sleet]

unironically the most insane request i’ve ever seen

[bleak ledge]

Fuck it, Mark Cuckerberg is going to have to win in this instance

[brisk sequoia]

No AMD driver for this month :( I cry

[gray sierra]

Tech 1 mfs wasuppp

[gloomy sleet]

i saw this and thought “dang that’s not horrible” for £275

[rose stream]

For which gen of Radeon tho?

[brisk sequoia]

That is in fact not bad

[gloomy sleet]

$360/£275

[brisk sequoia]

Adrenalin Edition, 7000 and 9000 series

[stray olive]

Oh. My joke got autofiltered lmao

[brisk sequoia]

Mega rip

[rose stream]

Mmm, well I'm not sure if I even got one for download either myself and I have a 7900 XT.

[brisk sequoia]

I think there won't be an AMD driver this month in general, likely it'll turn in 25.8.1 instead. I'm on a 7700 XT and I'm still on 25.6.3

I was moreso confused there wasn't one this month since Cyberpunk 2077 dropped their 2.3 update that added FSR 4 support and it says it needs the new driver to work properly

[gloomy sleet]

guys am i stupid i just bought 2 springs for £18

[brisk sequoia]

What kind of springs lol

[gloomy sleet]

compression die springs

so die springs that aren’t stiff

[brisk sequoia]

Hmm sounds about right for the price

[rose stream]

[gloomy sleet]

30mm long and 20mm od

[brisk sequoia]

I saw a 30mm one listed for $10 so seems about right

[gloomy sleet]

fair

[rigid fjord]

it kinda is horrible for £275, a 2600/2600x would be better than that 3500x

[gloomy sleet]

i need them for my sim pedals and they don’t use standard sizes so fuck me i guess

[gloomy sleet]

i didn’t notice that was a 3500 thought it said 3600x shit deal if it’s a 3500x

[brisk sequoia]

3500X is better lol killer deal

Only thing I'd say could be higher end is the GPU, instead of a 1660 an RTX 2060 Super or something

[gloomy sleet]

also springs range from 2000kg max load die springs to can be compressed by a 200g weight stiffness

[brisk sequoia]

Since those things are dirt cheap these days too

[gloomy sleet]

there’s like nothing in between that

[brisk sequoia]

Sheesh

[gloomy sleet]

i have some 4000kg max load die springs

i put them in my pedals once and i literally couldn’t get past the pedals pre travel

i measured 1.5mm of total travel with those lmao

[brisk sequoia]

I mean you don't want pedals that heavy right lol

[rigid fjord]

nope it's not, 3500x = 6c 6t cpu, it's actually shit

[gloomy sleet]

no those were just 79p for 2 so i thought why not lmao

[brisk sequoia]

6 cores for 275 pounds is not bad though wdym?

Its like an i5-12400

[rigid fjord]

2600/2600x is better due to hyperthreading, 6c 12t

[rigid fjord]

no it's not

[gloomy sleet]

this is what the coils look like btw

[brisk sequoia]

I mean yeah but I'm assuming they're gonna use it for just gaming

Doubt you'd need that many threads for gaming lol

[gloomy sleet]

3500x is ass

[rigid fjord]

5600x is what's comparable to a 12400

[lethal moth]

any suggestions for budget cpu coolers?
Right now I'm on AX90SE ARGB but looking to upgrade.

[brisk sequoia]

Unless yeah I'm just talking out of my butt and I don't know lol, not super knowledgable on AMD cpus since I've been on Intel this entire time

[gloomy sleet]

the compression weight is 4000kg and the compression travel is 8mm

[rigid fjord]

and yes, you want the cpu to be able to hyperthread if gaming

[brisk sequoia]

What's the budget we're working with

[lethal moth]

around £30-£40

[gloomy sleet]

so i’d have to put down 8000kg of force from my right foot to get 16mm of travel (my normal springs are 35mm of travel)

[gloomy sleet]

cpu?

[lethal moth]

im currently 16 and no job wants to hire a 16 year old so im living off my parents right now haha

[brisk sequoia]

Hmmm

[rigid fjord]

just grab an idcooling a620 pro se for £30

[lethal moth]

i9-11900f
i tend to go really overkill

[brisk sequoia]

Oh damn ok lol

[gloomy sleet]

dang that’s a really odd cpu choice

[lethal moth]

ill take a look into it

[gloomy sleet]

the a620 should be fine though

[rigid fjord]

not really an overkill cpu, it's more of a space heater claiming to be a cpu

[lethal moth]

pre-built :|
My parents don't trust me to build my own pc :/

[lethal moth]

true, i meant for cooling though

let me check my temps rq actually

[brisk sequoia]

Isnt anything above an i7 just a space heater lmao

So I've heard

[gloomy sleet]

and your 16?? i built my first pc at 12

[brisk sequoia]

Brooother lol

I mean they could at least let you try

[lethal moth]

45 celsius right now with uneven application of cooler ( i dropped a screw, never found it and used 3)
Probably gonna remove a screw so its just 2 diagonally for even pressure

[gloomy sleet]

that shit was so good at grand prix 4

[boreal vine]

I've got his parts, show up, build it, leave

[gloomy sleet]

that is just plain goofy

why do they have to watch you build the pc lmao

[lethal moth]

yeah :| we aren't really the richest so their mindset is get a professional to do it
They were skeptical about me installing a nvme

[boreal vine]

waiting to put it on the suitcase tomorrow

[rigid fjord]

not really, it depends on the gen and power draw

[gloomy sleet]

the building services i’ve done have just been me meeting the guy to get the parts off him going home building it and then the next day meeting again to trade the pc

[boreal vine]

because your clients only make sub 30k a year

[gloomy sleet]

dang they have 0 trust in you

[rigid fjord]

a 12900/12900f vs a 12900k for example, are all 12th gen i9's but the power draw and heat gen is totally different

[brisk sequoia]

The 14th gen i9's are the ones ive heard have the most overheating issues

That and of course the instability

[gloomy sleet]

no my client was just a guy who wanted a £300 pc for work

[plush wren]

[gloomy sleet]

you really don’t need a 4090 for gmail

excel is hardly the most intensive software

[solid gulch]

I don't know if this is the right channel but So I am trying to update my bios through the bios flashback ln my MSI mpg b550 gaming plus. The light blinked red a couple times now it's static red for about 17 mins now. I am using a 5700x3d renamed the file to MSI.ROM but I didn't remove the txt file which might be the problem

[boreal vine]

who said they're using it for Gmail?

[rigid fjord]

the instability is technically fixed, as for the heat there's some ways around it

[gloomy sleet]

#1027757333117415424

[solid gulch]

Thank u 🙏

[gloomy sleet]

no my client is

[brisk sequoia]

Usually some kind of beefy cooler setup or somethin of the sort I've seen people use with i9s

[lethal moth]

thats what happens when you arent the richest people

[brisk sequoia]

I understand where they're coming from but at the same time wouldnt hurt to let you try lol, all im sayin

[lethal moth]

they now trust me, but we just cant afford to get parts now

[brisk sequoia]

Fair

[lethal moth]

yeah, my parents arent tech-enthusiast so they just used to play it safe lol

[brisk sequoia]

Yeeah lol at the same time cant blame em

[robust trail]

Gimme that DGX Spark. Gimme all the sparks.

[dapper light]

AMD GPU users yearn for this pop up

[robust trail]

Get you that 10de

Tendeeznuts

[dapper light]

Time to contribute to shrinking AMD hwsurvey share

[rigid fjord]

12900k,13900k,13900ks basically required a 360mm aio for it to be tamed, but a 14900k that's been power limited a bit, is easily cooled by an idcooling a620 pro se tbh

[robust trail]

As is the natural progression of things

[dapper light]

speaking of hwsurvey
valve broke the sorting

[rigid fjord]

i don't, so that's a bold assumption of yours

[robust trail]

That’s because you breath in dust all day and it is messing with your brains 😂

[rigid fjord]

i keep clicking cancel on that survey, kinda find it's dumb

[robust trail]

Ah I’m just busting your chops.

[rigid fjord]

nah, i leave it to the rum to do that, though it's not being as effective as it used to

[robust trail]

💪 to choice 💪 to everyone having a good time!

[lean plaza]

How much should i sell my pc for

[robust trail]

Fifty cents and a ball of lint

[lean plaza]

serious bro

[rigid fjord]

2 quantaloo's because we havent seen your specs

[lean plaza]

rtx 3060 r7 5700x

or with r5 3600

[robust trail]

3 pence and a bag of sausages

[dapper light]

maybe you don't
but many AMD users are claiming that they don't give AMD users the pop up as often

it's all a joke of course, but not out of no where

[rigid fjord]

well a 3600 + 3060 is £300-350 in the uk, meanwhile a 5700x + 3060 would be £550-650 in the uk

[lean plaza]

r7 5700x only costs like 40 more so its better to add then

i cant take off the cpu cooler so i cant even put it in ill try again tmr

[rigid fjord]

sad to say, my current build compared to what i paid for the parts is only worth £450 at best

[lean plaza]

i got my pc r5 3600 and rtx 3060 for 180

but the case was fcked

so i needed to spend 25 for a new case

[rigid fjord]

25 of what?? buttons??

[lean plaza]

pound

[rigid fjord]

better of with a case that's around £50 then

[lean plaza]

its worth 50 but i got it for 25 cause a dude bought it for accident

sealed

[rigid fjord]

what case?

[lean plaza]

msi forge m100r

[latent gull]

Can I have the sausages ?

[rigid fjord]

at least that's mesh fronted, so it actually has airflow

[lean plaza]

yh its rlly good for the price

all fans pretinstalled

[rigid fjord]

i've seen better for the price tbh

which model

[rigid fjord]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/zJWJ7P/

[lean plaza]

Oh

i think micro cases are better when tryna sell tho cause it makes pc look better

like filled up

thats better for future upgrades tho

[rigid fjord]

this is actually comparable to a corsair 4000d af

[rigid fjord]

my previous setup

[lean plaza]

u switched to am5 now

?

[rigid fjord]

nope, still am4

current setup

[vagrant yarrow]

cool side grade I love to see people who arnt on a rush to buy new hardware

[lean plaza]

whats the point upgrading to 590 from 580

[vagrant yarrow]

dual gpu is the only one I can imagine

[lean plaza]

shouldve upgraded cpu to x3d one suerly

[vagrant yarrow]

I agree but I also respect people who upgrade there system even in little way's not evryone needs x3d

[lean plaza]

better to save up for a big upgrade then do smaller ones tho

[vagrant yarrow]

good point

[lean plaza]

like the fps difference from theirupgrade will be barely any

[vagrant yarrow]

sometimes its not about the FPS

maybe a second GPU to test Lossles scaling or getting a hold of a solid test bench to experment about PC's

or it was just about needing some new components because they died or where damaged

[lean plaza]

yh true

[pastel remnant]

My VGA light is on I am running a Ryzen 5 7600 on board graphics

[clear canyon]

Gpu issue

[pastel remnant]

I don’t have a gpu

I’m running on the the CPU’s on board graphics

[clear canyon]

Everyone has a gpu

[clear canyon]

Thats a gpu

But its giving the error

Try it again then reseat ram, if that does not work, reset bios

[pastel remnant]

Yeah how can I solve

[pastel remnant]

Oh it’s fist time booting I am having no display

[clear canyon]

Its memory training

[pastel remnant]

How long till it’s boots up

[elder quarry]

Yup give it a few minutes

[clear canyon]

@elder quarry

[elder quarry]

no

[clear canyon]

Yes

[elder quarry]

!yes

[clear canyon]

!(!yes)

[elder quarry]

!!!yes

[rigid fjord]

rarer gpu, also double the vram

[rigid fjord]

actually it's an upgrade, a side grade would have been me going to a 3700x instead

[clear canyon]

[clear canyon]

No but with extra steps

[rigid fjord]

in my use case, actually no, not cost effective nor worth it

[plush wren]

!(!(!(!yes)))

idk if thats even correct that hurts my brain

[pastel remnant]

It’s been 10 mins still stuck on VGA

[zinc widget]

How should I wire the other side of this Ethernet cable?

[rigid fjord]

crossfire much like sli use is dead, so no

[rigid fjord]

you make sure the're matching for the pinout

[zinc widget]

Wdym

I think it’s T568B

[rigid fjord]

you want it the same on both sides

so both sides should be either t568A or t568B

I'm having a bit of file tracking down what in this minidump file caused a BSoD, could someone here help me?

[clear canyon]

For a cosumer router

[rigid fjord]

he basically cut one end off so he can put the cable through the wall

[zinc widget]

@rigid fjord Did I do it right?

[native basalt]

[clear nest]

uhh internet

what's it look like o the bottom left the wifi symbol

also check packet loss

[native basalt]

how do you check that

[clear nest]

during a call, click on the wifi icon whenever u load in on PC idk how to do it for phone

[latent yoke]

Kinda the wrong place to ask but figured I'd get an answer faster,
New build, everything works and it boots into BIOS but the case fans won't turn on, the CPU fans work fine but the case fans plugged into system fan won't

[zinc widget]

Forgot about the audio on that one lmao enjoy this one

[sinful cobalt]

no

[native basalt]

no packet loss

[zinc widget]

Also have the gif version

[clear nest]

reinstall? idk

[zinc widget]

Bruh this UniFi switch gotta firmware update and I gotta wait for it now ugh

Wdym

[clear canyon]

What unifi switch you got? I have 2 of the UniFi usw pro 48 port poe++

[native basalt]

i already did that and it didnt work, any other ideas? should i just assume its a wifi issue?

My 10gig stuff is directly connected

[plush wren]

i think spotify should be fully paid on phone

[native basalt]

did u make sure its plugged in correctly? other then that no clue tbh 😭

get a super long cable and cable manage well

trust u got that

[zinc widget]

All my 10G rj45 runs through 2 switches lol here’s my topology

[unborn condor]

nvm, put it into Grok and supposedly it was a kernel issue related to power

[clear canyon]

Mine just shows the 2 switches since i only have those 2 unifi stuff lol

[native basalt]

might have to do that

[zinc widget]

lol I had an extra gigabit switch I bought the Flex 2.5G tho so I can UniFi max. I even got a flex cam

[clear canyon]

Why grok of all ai?

[zinc widget]

I’ve heard it’s actually really good compared to Gemini, and rivals the better gpt models

[rigid fjord]

no choice other than a long cable, and you'd want a 15 meter one

Use copilot

[rigid fjord]

using "ai" to work out your issue, when you could of just used a dump reader to find out

[clear canyon]

It uses twitter sources first

[unborn condor]

i did. i don't know how to read whatever it is it threw at me.

[rigid fjord]

google it then

[unborn condor]

google what? the hundreds of lines of text? i don't know how to read dumpfiles

[rigid fjord]

"how to read dump files?" in google

[unborn condor]

i didn't want to use an ai but i didn't know what else to do

[unborn condor]

did that, still had no idea what the dump file threw at me.

i have a learning disability which doesn't help and dumpfiles aren't my area of expertise, i just want to know why my computer blue screened

same

[rigid fjord]

we've all done that, and witthout piracy

[unborn condor]

like a week or so, i hate it

had to reinstall it like 4 times

kept giving me a hypervisor issue

wiped my C:/ drive which stopped the crashes

i didn't care about the watermark, i cared about the crashes

[magic mirage]

not work

have one of those pluged in right now

[clear canyon]

Then find out what your gateway IP is in command prompt with the command "ipconfig"

Hdmi wont damage ur stuff

[chrome lake]

damn it, why you ate the missing sectors!

[unborn condor]

this is my boot drive, should i be worried?

[clear canyon]

I WAS HUNGRY!!! 😭😭😭😭😭

Just try it

[chrome lake]

73...%

[clear canyon]

?

[chrome lake]

ah yes, my flash drive is considered a sata ssd, thanks kitfox

[unborn condor]

should be worth noting this is an SSD, m.2 NVMe

[chrome lake]

i saw, it's starting to look bad honestly.

[unborn condor]

how so?

[chrome lake]

I think you can use a PCI to NVMe interface.

[clear canyon]

Tf are you talking about, just plug in the cable

?

What, bruh

[chrome lake]

I had an SSD with that 73% before but on a laptop, the performance went bad than what it was before, it's so bad that even the HDD beats it for somewhat reason, but in this case it may be different.

[unborn condor]

how hard is it to completely copy everything to a completely new boot drive? like if i were to get a, say, 2 TB m.2 NVMe and just copy everything onto that and should my boot drive fail, i have that to boot off of instead? can i even feasibly do that?

[chrome lake]

...clone the whole thing from old to new first (if you wanna keep everything intact)

AYO?

SHIT IS HOT THAN MY CPU LMFAO

[sinful cobalt]

ok

[unborn condor]

what program is this?

[chrome lake]

Western Digital Kitfox, wanted to see if this thing is fixable, or whatnot (don't even use the drive but imma see if i can fix it)

[latent yoke]

Strictly speaking it wasn't plugged in correctly, after a bit of research I figured out I had to route it through a SATA line directly to the Power supply

BUT

Everything appears to be in order now :3

[clear canyon]

Yeah, it sounded like you had the cable

[chrome lake]

oh god the clicking is baad lmfao

[clear canyon]

Clicking means good!! /s

[chrome lake]

YOU ATE THE HEADS???

[chrome lake]

snagged this thing for free, it comes with 120GB SSD, and a generic power supply and RAM, and a generic case.

[sinful cobalt]

its missing a rtx 5090

[chrome lake]

imma swap it with MSI B450M PRO-VDH MAX and slap in another RAM for dual channel.

I also snagged a free 512GB NVMe Gen 3, it's WD tho.

Tried other ports?

One of my customers dropped their laptop to me to repair it, but i tried so much and looked for broken connections on the board but no avail, well, in short they said "Is that so, since we don't have anything in that laptop or is repairable, keep it, it's yours" or something along the lines.

Atleast i got a free NVMe and a free lcd screen for that matter :p

Imma swap this stupid 1TB, and this ryzen 3 3200G for a 5600G

[prisma radish]

Yo I changed my drive and re installer windows and it's still happening

[chrome lake]

I know this is ridiculous, but my school has those slow ass 1TB HDDs in the computers, and yup, i was called in and told me to change all of those HDDs to a 120GB SSD (I mean would they use the whole ass 1TB per system unit?) so, i snagged 4 of the 1TB to fill up my SATA ports lmfao.

[grizzled frost]

i'll take the rest of the 1tb drives for 50usd+shipping /s

[prisma radish]

This boot loop bitlocker we toggt the mvme was bad I got a new 1 and reinstalled windows and I come 2 my PC today and it happened agn

Rong pic

[chrome lake]

Are you really using Windows 11 24H2 which that default bitlocker turned on...?

[prisma radish]

But most of them time it loads it doesn't do it all the time

[chrome lake]

@sour quest imagine getting a free gpu

https://tenor.com/view/trollface-gif-8242347154758580084

[clear canyon]

What is the drive

What?

[chrome lake]

I have a free GPU but it's SHIT.

[clear canyon]

Thats what cheap ssds do

[chrome lake]

how many months since you got that?

[clear canyon]

Return it

Get a good drive

Go name brand

[chrome lake]

you prolly got a shit drive sent to you

[clear canyon]

Dont get off brands

Never heard of them, go name brand

[chrome lake]

my off brand SSD is still with me, Currently using it on a 2013 laptop, it runs Windows 11 smoothly for no reason :v

been 6 months of using it tho

[clear canyon]

Nope

[trim gyro]

lexar nm790 is good

[chrome lake]

Dude, i swear the stock cooler on Ryzen AM4 sucks so bad :v

[trim gyro]

usually not a go-to ssd brand though, since klevv/sk hynix, teamgroup, and western digital have cheaper ssds

[unique light]

What gpu is that 😂

[trim gyro]

wraith stealth cooler is very loud

[chrome lake]

a 760, 170w TDP, 2GB VRAM. It's shit.

[echo wagon]

Yall know what would be limiting fps on fortnite to 120 with a 9070XT and 9800x3D?

[unique light]

But for free, not bad tho

[trim gyro]

setting the frame limit to 120fps

[echo wagon]

bruh. obf I don't set it to that.

[unique light]

At least it outperforms this @chrome lake 💀

[trim gyro]

vsync or something

[echo wagon]

vsync isn't on

and I see my screen shuttering whne running a game

like anywhere on my computer.

[trim gyro]

is XMP/EXPO enabled

[chrome lake]

yeah.... about that... The 3200G intergrated graphics beats the SHIT out of it with just 65W so, i just stick with this. Imma give this one to my cousin who has a shittier DDR3 PC

[echo wagon]

I... don't know..

how do I check that?

[trim gyro]

open task manager ctrl+shift+esc, under performance, memory, check if it says 4800MT/s in memory or something

[unique light]

Yeah, i mean 760 is 12 years old while the 560 ti is 14, both are incredibly old now sadly

[echo wagon]

it does say 4800

[chrome lake]

they claim to beat the 3200G's igpu

[unique light]

I think the 760 still beats that igpu

[echo wagon]

can this cause shutters in the display?

[trim gyro]

yah

[unique light]

Because 760 is still good for older gamrs fs

[echo wagon]

dang it.

[trim gyro]

can fix

[chrome lake]

Tried it on 1080p. GTA V on normal settings stutters like SHIT., the iGPU plays it fine with 50-54FPS on normal

The thermal paste and pad is new too, fans are spinning so well.

[unique light]

Yeah amd benefits alot from higher ram speeds also fortnite is just a stutter fest especially on dx12 with unreal engine

[unique light]

Interesting, it should destroy on 1080p

[echo wagon]

alr, lemme enable XMP/EXPO

[unique light]

You migjt be able to find an older card with that size

HyperX Fury DDR4 2666MHz 2x8GB (a-XMP enabled)

[chrome lake]

Legacy ofc

imma try enhance soon and do some benchmarking again

[unique light]

Damn for free?! Got a good deal

[unique light]

760 is gonna struggle damn

[chrome lake]

Yeah i swapped that shitty MSI A320M M2 Motherboard for a good MSI B450M PRO-VDH MAX, and Ryzen 3 3200G to 3400G atleast, but imma finally change this 3400G to 5600G

[iron parcel]

Am I able to swap coolers for an rx 6600 with any other cooler

Like rx 6600 powercoler swapped with a gigabyte one

[unique light]

Yeah prob be good to do that. My r7 5800x broke recently and i had a backup 5600g and it still handles my rx 6800 amazinh

I have the same case that Linus used to make a watercooled PC with a fucking firetruck lmfao. (Well, in the thumbnail atleast)

Bro how much for that i want it 😂

But tbh i want an old school case so much

Those old school gaming pc cases are so sick especially some of those designs

[chrome lake]

Dude.. that case is just fucking 8 dollars.

I snagged it near my town lol

[unique light]

Crazy, actually crazy

[sinful cobalt]

open task manager, view performance for memory, if its 4800mts on ddr5 its disabled
restart the pc, spam f2 or whatever bios key urs is and go search EXPO/XMP profiles and switch to ur ram's advertised speed profile

[chrome lake]

Rate my cousin's shitty PC (from which i'll put this 760 in there soon)

Yes, the whole 3 fans in there is a fucking flashlight fans.

[sinful cobalt]

in terms of overall or in terms of shit

[echo wagon]

I think I did it? I changed the profile to xmp and restarted, that didn't change the speed, went back in and changed it from 4800 to 6000

[cosmic idol]

I genuinely want an optiplex sleeper build
But I'm just concerened about airflow and part compatibility

[sinful cobalt]

when u exited the bios (save changes and exit) did it ask u to confirm changes

if it didnt its likely u didnt select the profile properly

[unique light]

True, dont get a small form factor thats fs

[echo wagon]

I clicked "F10"

[sinful cobalt]

can u go into bios and show me ur xmp profiles by using the camera on yo phone

when u exit bios it should prompt u to confirm ur changes

[echo wagon]

its at 6000 now, but there is screen shuttering still

its still at 200

nothings maxed out, so I don't know whats going on

[sinful cobalt]

describe the problem ur having

[echo wagon]

the screens brightness keeps changing randomly, and my fps is capped at 120 even though its capped at 160 in game, vsync is not on

[cosmic idol]

yeah haha
I want one of the fat ugly grey ones.

I could always take a drill to it for some speed holes I guess

[chrome lake]

Is your display refresh rate to its supposed setting? Drivers are up to date?

[unique light]

Bro i had to fix my works lobby hotel pc, the specs are so bad its a miracle it runs firefox

Its a compaq pc from 2009, with 2007 specs

[sinful cobalt]

the fps thing might be a app fps cap

like, amd adrenaline or nvidia fps cap

[cosmic idol]

LOL FR
how do school pcs survive
2nd gen i3s in 2025 goes crazy

[echo wagon]

OH

[cosmic idol]

😭 😭

[chrome lake]

What about my i3-3120M that is running Windows 11?

[unique light]

Idk but this pc is WAY worse than that. It struggles on windows 7. 1c 1t AMD Semphron LE 1300, 2gb ddr2, 160gb hdd, and an Nvidia geforce 6400 igpu

[echo wagon]

idk where to check if amd adrenaline is capping it.

[sinful cobalt]

as for screen brightness I’d check windows settings, and amd/nvidia display settings

[sinful cobalt]

it should be in Gaming>Graphics

[cosmic idol]

I tried win11 on my old i7 6700 and it was alright honestly.
But obviously I'm comparing a mandarin to a banana here

[cosmic idol]

😭 😭 hell nah

[zinc widget]

I bought a Jackery today I’ve never bought shit I first learned about from an LTT sponsor before

I feel like a dirty consoomer

[sinful cobalt]

scroll down and find amd chill or smth

[echo wagon]

thats all of it.

[sinful cobalt]

or try switching it to quality or custom, and config ur own settings

[zinc widget]

I never trust AMD software ngl

I just kinda assume it’s the reason for everything wrong with the pc I’m working on

Ryzen Master fucked up my personal rig lmao

[sinful cobalt]

the problem with amd for me is that their driver based fps cap sucks balls and its a 50% chance of it opening

[echo wagon]

also the screen is mainly shuttering when I move my mouse anywhere but in game.

[zinc widget]

AMD hire competent software engineer challenge (impossible)

[dreamy plover]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/w7CFkf hows this build, i'm using my old psu and monitor, upgrading from a 11th gen i5 and 6600xt

[echo wagon]

oh its only in discord

[sinful cobalt]

that can probably be contributed to the game being in fullscreen

[echo wagon]

I play windowed fullscreen

omg

[sinful cobalt]

then idk

[echo wagon]

fortnite lobby has a max fps limit of 120.

[cosmic idol]

oh wow decent upgrade

[thorny nexus]

That’s why gdstime invented the 12v fan able to be over bolted to 24v

[zinc widget]

I don’t like Gigabyte motherboards, and ur overpaying for the gpu.

[thorny nexus]

You can change it in config file

I don’t remember where but you can

[sinful cobalt]

please upgrade that psu its a C tier

[unique light]

Personally id go also with a 9070xt, they generally are going cheaper than 5070 and does perform better

[echo wagon]

shadows.

[sinful cobalt]

that mobo is fine, its extremely budget and gets the job done

[echo wagon]

shadows was my issue.

[cosmic idol]

yeah I was just looking at the tierlist lmao

[dreamy plover]

its bundled with the cpu lol i'm buying from another shop its about 2k (probably 1.6k usd?) in my currency for all the upgrades

[dreamy plover]

the 5070 i'm buying is 585 usd

[unique light]

Oh damn okay

[cosmic idol]

ok "extremely budget" might be a stretch, but idk. That's my opinion
But yes, should be more than enough for the 7800x3d to not perform stupidly bad, and should have sufficient pcie support

[chrome lake]

I won't have a bottleneck with a 5600G + RTX 3060, right? Given that my NVMe is using Gen 3 so...

[dreamy plover]

using my old one to save money lol

[sinful cobalt]

dont get a 240mm aio, if its cheaper get the phantom spirit 120 evo from thermalright
upgrade that psu to like an A tier
that gpu pricing for a 5070 is also diabolical

[cosmic idol]

amazing idea thx vbnz
imma just take a drill to it too

get some mesh and she'll be mint

[sinful cobalt]

bottleneck is a loose word, the tldr is no

[cosmic idol]

oh yeah bottleneck is such an argy bargy term with so many variables.

[thorny nexus]

Does your pc run the way you like? If yes then boom no bottleneck

Problem solved

[cosmic idol]

even worse is those bottleneck "calculators"
istg they give a random number that's generated

[chrome lake]

Had to double sure though.

[sinful cobalt]

every pc has a “bottleneck” if we’re being honest lmao, it depends on what load you put on the PC

even a 9800x3d and 5090 is a bottleneck

[cosmic idol]

I'd more classify it as "does a select component run to it's full potential"
"or is it balanced enough in your use cases that there isn't extensive amounts performance being left on the table"

but yes tldr the same ig

[cosmic idol]

5600 and a 3060 should be fine
I have a 4060ti with my 5600 and my cpu keeps up, but I'm at 1440p so sometimes my 4060ti struggles. But it's good enough

[dreamy plover]

yeah i might get a psu upgrade when theres a sale, the aio is about 50 usd which is why i'm getting it and gpu prices are just pretty high in my country, no way i'm getting anything closer to msrp

[cosmic idol]

wow 30usd 5090!?

[zinc widget]

Here’s how I’d do it (didn’t realize u were outside US till I read this since u sent US PCPP) https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bwyqnp

saves $200, doesn’t have a pos PSU, and gives you Thunderbolt just cuz.

Also that aio looks better with that case lol

Tho I’d go 280 at least for AIOs

IMO 240 and smaller aios ur better off with an air cooler

But with the H6 u probably want it to look cool which I respect

[sinful cobalt]

why do we have a nzxt aio and a x870 all of a sudden

those 2 in his country is gonna be miles more expensive

[zinc widget]

Because I saved $300 on the gpu, and didn’t realize he wasn’t US until after I made the list.

Figured I’d do a bit of reallocation

I like matching cases and aios lmao

And it was like $40 more

[sinful cobalt]

he explicitly stated he’s not able to get any gpu for msrp, and both models yall provided are msrp models

[barren breach]

Im not sure if I want my child to play Roblox when she is old enough lmao

[cosmic idol]

For real tho

[pale flint]

i have seen 18+ people play roblox

[barren breach]

I may have worded that like shit now that i read it

[cosmic idol]

There some gross people on there

[barren breach]

I meant that entirely backwards

[cosmic idol]

Lmfao yeah. Potentially

[barren breach]

110% backwards

God that makes me feel like a bottom feeder now that i said it out loud

[cosmic idol]

LOL
So are you trying to say Roblox rips off every game?

[barren breach]

I had to delete it

[cosmic idol]

Or every game rips Roblox off

[barren breach]

It really hurt me

[pale flint]

uh

[barren breach]

Let me re state myself

[cosmic idol]

uh

[barren breach]

Every single game is ripped off by Roblox*

[thorn escarp]

the game all the old gens recommend

[cosmic idol]

Haha that makes sense lmfao.

[thorn escarp]

in 2025 WE play valorant and roblox

[cosmic idol]

There’s even minecraft mini games on Roblox it’s sorta crazy

[pale flint]

i really hope playing rocket league is way better than playing roblox cuz i do play rocket league and i love it

[thorn escarp]

is there redstone simulator

[pale flint]

🙏🙏🙏

[barren breach]

Im so disappointed in my buzzed self for still wording it so backwards

[cosmic idol]

I mean there is some games that are semi Roblox original but they’re Few and far between
There’s usually some game that you can find that’s similar to a Roblox game.

[bold iris]

Who up oneui'ing their 8

[cosmic idol]

I reckon it’s almost and ask and you shall receive type deal

[cosmic idol]

It’s okay bro
I forgive you 💔

[barren breach]

Almost?

“Roblox only game”

[cosmic idol]

[barren breach]

Let me load up Roblox Theft, Grand Theft

[pale flint]

roblox forza simulator: horizons

😝😝

[barren breach]

Cant believe rockstar hasnt finished gta 6 yet, roblox is already on 9

[pale flint]

gta 6 gonna be jiggly wiggly

something roblox cant do

[barren breach]

Im like so disappointed that I just finished my first like, real PC, and I still have to play gta 6 on my xbox first

[cosmic idol]

😭

[pale flint]

you cant pirate games on consoles

[barren breach]

30 fps 1080p

[pale flint]

thats why

30 fps 1080p is gay asf

not like i dont have 1080 p vut 30 fps is gay

[barren breach]

Unless

Ps5 pro or whatever

[pale flint]

atleast 60 or pass

[pale flint]

idk

[sinful cobalt]

ew 60fps

[barren breach]

Ps5 pro is the only console so far to support 60fps on gta 6

[pale flint]

i can compromise in quality for once but not fps

[barren breach]

Xbox series x and ps5 get 30fps

[cosmic idol]

Probably a better word to use but I get you

30fps is kinda ass especially with modern game technology

[barren breach]

Incredibly shit

[sinful cobalt]

who is running 30 fps

[pale flint]

😭 😭

[barren breach]

Gta 6

[sinful cobalt]

im running a visual novel at 360fps

you lowly peasants

[pale flint]

you are off topic

we ignore you

[sinful cobalt]

who are you

[cosmic idol]

Unless someone still mains like an Xbox one or ps4, not a lot.

[barren breach]

I buy a 5070ti just to wait

[sinful cobalt]

30 fps in the big 25

[pale flint]

who are you

[barren breach]

For a real experience

[cosmic idol]

Actually my 4060ti struggles with some games at 1440p

[pale flint]

🤔🤔

[cosmic idol]

But not 30fps bad usually

[pale flint]

it should cuz it aint much

[ivory sorrel]

Is anyone else having issues with streaming services? All mine are showing errors, and Downdetector shows a spike on every service starting around seven hours ago.

[thorny saddle]

prob a cloudflare issue

[sinful cobalt]

damn im hungry as fuck

[barren breach]

6090 and intel core 420k before gta 6

[sinful cobalt]

minimum gta 6 rquirements

[ivory sorrel]

That does seem to be the usual culprit. They need to figure things out

[thorny saddle]

what country are you in

[barren breach]

Such a hard ass combo tho

[cosmic idol]

Considering there’s like upscaling and hardware that’s more than capable of running above the frame limits set by devs, it’s pretty dumb.

[ivory sorrel]

U.S.

[thorny saddle]

word - yeah i dunno prob a cloudflare thing

[barren breach]

I would absolutely love for a rtx 6090 and intel core 420k just for the memes

[pale flint]

i realised how slow my laptop really is while i was trying to edit a single clip and it had to restart davinci 3 times to make just an ass edit

[unreal cosmos]

When I was a kid I would have been absolutely stoked to have 30fps lol

[barren breach]

I would spend $10k on this just for the memes, even tho itll be $15k for those 2

Usd

[cosmic idol]

My laptop has an i7 1260p and it’s solid.
But it’s igpu ain’t solid

[barren breach]

Goons?

Lmf
ao

[cosmic idol]

why are we talking about this.

[barren breach]

I cant say it with a straight face

[cosmic idol]

Honestly making it socially acceptable to talk about one’s pleasure habits is so gross, even jokingly

[barren breach]

I cant think about the word without dropping some cells

[thorn escarp]

im sorry

[barren breach]

Of the brain variety

[cosmic idol]

Nah it’s more on society for making it acceptable dw

[barren breach]

I hate the word man

Why did make its way to me being able to type it out

Im just full of disappointment tonight

Roblox only game

[cosmic idol]

no genuinely.
It’s gross.

R/sysadmin my beloved

I stg I almost replied to this in such a way that I couldn’t believe I exist

[thorn escarp]

i was just joking

[formal sonnet]

First place I check whenever anything Google, AWS, or M365/Azure are acting up whilst I'm at work. It's amazing that we still have to crowdsource these things sometimes hours before the providers themselves even think about sneezing at the possibility of anything being wrong. 🤷

[cosmic idol]

Either my internet is being its normal self or all of those reply’s spawned in at once

Sorry not replies, reactions

[barren breach]

It did it for me earlier

[sinful cobalt]

a character that doesnt exist in a game that convinces you she doesnt exist and asks you the question of does she actually exist

[barren breach]

Same internet ig

[trim gyro]

you in australia or something

[barren breach]

Dont make me say it

[cosmic idol]

Yeah honestly it just looks like poor ass covering from companies too desperate to admit they made a mistake.

[sinful cobalt]

im gonna start spitting out slurs

[barren breach]

I had to delete it

[cosmic idol]

Think this is my cue to leave.

[barren breach]

Im not comfortable with it
