[raw trout]

The 3060 might be overkill

[zinc matrix]

until you get caught by a camera 🙁

[raw trout]

Roblox is crazy

[gloomy sleet]

3060 is definitely underkill

[kindred halo]

How much is a 7600 XT comparatively

[knotty bronze]

well its good in price for me

[gloomy sleet]

isnt that worse

[fervent rapids]

Ok im in bios which one do i use

[raw trout]

Al of the above

[gloomy sleet]

@south arrow@left dove i see you both and raise a sore back with joints creaking worser than a house in a thunder storm

Mines fine personally but I barely use it

I raise you a mildly fucked spine from kyphosis and being hit by a car on a bike with a knee that pops so loudly you can hear it across the house

[rigid fjord]

i know the being hit by a car while on a bike feeling to well, but the kyphosis definitely does suck

I’ve never been hit by a car although I have flipped over the bike handlebars when hitting the curb

Thankfully no severe injuries

[left dove]

we out here with skin smoother than noah wyle's rizz

[distant frigate]

The bike handlebars hitting your chest at high speed can be dangerous

I got one more question @left dove I use this extension coord for a single monitor because the monitors wire is really small. The monitor uses 36watts

[left dove]

yeah that's acceptable

i also know this feeling to well, though flew over a small bush and came close to wrapping my spine around a skip

I think my chest hit the bike handlebars at like 30 mph

hi in about a month hopefully, i’ll be building a pc, well at least be able to buy the parts and i just want to check if i need to change anything about the parts that i’ll be getting. https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/kwxTyW

[south arrow]

Looks good enjoy lad

If the paste arrives like play dough and not spreadable, a tube of mx4 right now is pretty affordable and works great if needed

[valid laurel]

ok

[merry dagger]

i just hate how bloated modern laptops are
Asus preinstalled mcafee AV on my laptop lmao, the shittiest software ever

[broken palm]

i hate facebook marketplace so much, there was a guy selling a ryzen 9 7950x3d for $330, we go to microcenter to do the purchase, he drops it and the corner chipped LOL

so i ended up spending $700 after tax for a ryzen 9 7950x3d

[rigid fjord]

you'd be better off with 2x nm790's there, i'd also go for the white arctic p12 pwm argb's instead fan wise, and tbh a different case and get either a corsair rm1000x or hx1000i

[craggy cove]

that much?

[broken palm]

7% usage, minecraft running at 1000fps with browser, medal & discord

[craggy cove]

also it could be worse, you could've been the guy who dropped it

[broken palm]

he was weirding me out extremely, beyond weird

he brought the cpu wrapped in a napkin???

[valid laurel]

what case?

[rigid fjord]

and minecraFT BE ONLY USING 2 OF THOSE CORES

[craggy cove]

if its h2h then why not

(unless you have linus hands)

[broken palm]

im not gonna complain, my pc is a lot better for my use now

[craggy cove]

most h2h purchases/sales i have are just battles of social awkwardness

[broken palm]

i was maxing my 7700x at 90%

[broken palm]

usually they're good, i traded a ryzen 5 7600x3d for a ryzen 7 7700x within 30 seconds

[rigid fjord]

O11D if you're after a fishtank case which that h9 is a clone of, otherwise get the h6 flow from nzxt, it's their only case with originality

[broken palm]

somehow getting better temps than the 7700x

[rigid fjord]

use hwinfo for temp monitoring, not armoury crate

lian li o11 dynamic?

yeah, it's what the h9 is a clone of

65 idle??

idk that was with thermal grizzly paste too

[valid laurel]

is it better? the lian li?

[steel umbra]

something is wrong

[broken palm]

im on corsair and its somehow the cheapest, yet the best

i hope this was not kryonaut, as that's not a paste for daily use

[broken palm]

... indeed it was

[steel umbra]

ye ik 7950x3d is dual ccd but it shouldn’t be that the 7700x runs so hot

if it was the evo, you'd be definitely with a better case for sure

att mid tbh

i have tmobile's top line & visible (verizon) top line and theyre both eh

tmobile peaks at 1 gigabit in charlotte, meanwhile verizon i've had hit 3.5gigabit

[distant frigate]

I have T-Mobile

They are also good here. Gotten like 2,300 Mbps max from them

AT&T so far max I’ve gotten was 600 Mbps

They have 5G+ here though

[broken palm]

respectully the worst 5g provier Lol

glorified LTE

[distant frigate]

I haven’t tested out Verizon’s 5G UW yet

[broken palm]

i'd reccomend it, in my cases (seattle, portland & charlotte) verizon smoked all of them, despite seattle being home of tmobile

[raw trout]

Ok

[distant frigate]

Difference in one spot

I also notice some slight interference when switching with dual sim

[left dove]

well yeah you're essentially cycling the radio

[knotty bronze]

which is better, they are about the same price: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HxZYjn or https://www.zachstechturf.com/product-page/shadow-bolt-v2 i dont need anything crazy, just something under 1k that can play minecraft with shaders

[left dove]

do NOT get anything from ztt

his builds are grossly overpriced

[knotty bronze]

so

[left dove]

(he's also a scummy piece of shit)

[knotty bronze]

the custom one?

[left dove]

theres only one like you sent that has to do with ztt

soooooooo

[abstract wigeon]

[knotty bronze]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HxZYjn

[left dove]

Yes I saw the list too

[fleet ruin]

can anyone recommend a 1k pc build?

[abstract wigeon]

can someone fill me in on why

[abstract wigeon]

7600/7500f and a 9060xt maybe even 9070 probably

nvidia gpu preferably

[left dove]

I gotta go to the store again soonish because I have a sudden temporary housemate & I have hardly anything to feed her 😔

[serene pumice]

nicer! why is the sauce Yellow though

[ebon marlin]

It's a tomato based ranch sauce

Lighting makes it seem yellow

[left dove]

i thought it was nacho cheese

[ebon marlin]

Naw

[left dove]

also tomato based ranch sauce whatttttt

lemme try some of that

[serene pumice]

thought it was mustard

wasabi mustard

[left dove]

brotha eww

I can't do wasabi

[rigid fjord]

to much heat?

[left dove]

fake or real its just

not good (to me)

no it's the extreme bitterness

it tastes how snorting a line of horseradish would feel

[rigid fjord]

tbf it does come from japanese horseradish

[left dove]

SEE

IM RIGHT

we should all just eat pizza dipped in applesauce its obv the better food option

yall ever dip chicken nuggets in mashed potatoes

[rigid fjord]

i don't like apple sauce nor even cranberry sauce

[left dove]

rauko i gotta change that

i have a jar of my mom's jalapeno cranberry jam and it is soo good

[rigid fjord]

yes but cheesy mash

[exotic valley]

3080ti vs 5060ti vs 7900xt, which one to pick for gaming & streaming?

[iron glen]

shepherd's pie 🤤

home made croquets essetially

[left dove]

I love me a good champion bowl

literally just potatoes, gravy, chicken, and corn (I like adding green beans)

[iron glen]

rauko yk any good dips / salads that go with chicken(that are not Caesar salad)
also hi

[left dove]

kale cranberry

[iron glen]

idk what gravy is, not very popular here

[left dove]

spinach & apple vinegarette salad

[rigid fjord]

ketchup, bbq, ranch for dipping sauces

as for salads, Mediterranean salads go really well without overpowering the chicken

[jaunty apex]

Real wasabi or horseradish

[iron glen]

so smth like greek?

[jaunty apex]

Oh nvm lmao

[rigid fjord]

greek, italian or a spannish one

[iron glen]

dang it i don't have any of those you mentioned :/

bbq sauce expired 2 years ago, amazed nobody threw it out and happy nobody ate it
ketchup is meh, too sweet for me
and ranch isn't sold here i think

no tomatoes either 😔

[exotic valley]

5060ti vs 3080ti vs 7900xt vs 7900xtx vs 9070xt

which one should i get?

[ivory mountain]

better question now

[exotic valley]

in terms of pricing, here in my local availability:
5060ti < 3080ti < 7900xt < 9070xt < 7900xtx

[exotic valley]

lol

[ivory mountain]

id get 9070xt honestly, its not much worse but its $200-$300 cheaper and has fsr4 and newer shit, plus AMD cards have great OC headroom

also the power draw is much lower

[exotic valley]

its not 9070xt cheaper here in my area.

its more like $40 cheaper than 7900xtx

[distant frigate]

Yoooo AT&T

[gentle kestrel]

the xtx makes no sense vs the 9070 xt honestly

[ivory mountain]

BOSTON INNIT

boahston

[gentle kestrel]

the card can’t raytrace as well so the vram is borderline useless

[steel umbra]

it’s kids

[distant frigate]

It seems like all three networks here aren’t bad

[steel umbra]

most games are garbage on roblox

[distant frigate]

I’m so spoiled lol

[exotic valley]

afaik, the 7000 series kinda sucks at video encoding than the 9000 series, right?

[ivory mountain]

must be nice i get 4g lte where im at 😭 fuck verizon

[gentle kestrel]

i can’t speak for any of the amd encoders but i’d assume the newer one has a better encoder

[distant frigate]

Verizon has good 5G here too lol

5G UW

[exotic valley]

9070xt features fsr4 while 7900xtx doesn't, but it won't really affect i guess cuz the only thing i do all day long is just playing overwatch 2 and sometimes streaming

[ivory mountain]

theyve all been solid after rdna2

[gentle kestrel]

i just use quicksync or nvenc

[exotic valley]

i thought the 7000 series is significantly worse than nvidia and intel

and only the 9000 series ever comes close to them, (other than AV1)

This is sorta of a hard question to ask

So

[hexed tapir]

Charge yeee phone

I can’t wait for better smartphone batteries tbh

Smartphones are gonna be using silicon batteries in the future

Higher energy density in the same space

[thorn pewter]

I was on and about in my collage near a library right, but ig the same person i saw in my cc goes there and for some reason i dont know why they tried to be very friendly at first and basically a somewhat pathetic attempt to ask me out, but she speaks norway ppl language and am sorta scared cuz i don rlly get what she says, so sim was the only person i thought who could help me out here 😭

[frigid topaz]

I bought these today cause my airpods finally died after 2 years and ngl for 25 bucks it pretty decent

Ik they're just a common rebranded Chinese earbuds but they work pretty nicely

I wanna mod it cause it only comes with 3 wallpapers and I feel like I could add more somehow

[left dove]

tbh i dig the little case screen

kinda pointless but its a neat gimmick

[frigid topaz]

It's the only way to turn on noise cancelation

But I can change volume,set alarms and timers, stop and play songs and change volume

Even like use the case to take pics with phone

[left dove]

ooh i like that

[exotic valley]

it seems like amd finally caught up the race with the other vendors in their 9000 series cards?

[left dove]

remote shutters are always handy

[frigid topaz]

Even turn the screen into a flashlight

[exotic valley]

it even beats nvenc in some scenarios

7900xt & 7900xtx just looks aweful in such a comparison due to bad hardware design

[left dove]

Daaamb dude

that shits snazzy

[frigid topaz]

For 25 bucks not bad

Not even laggy screen

[left dove]

yeah its even like 30 fps so it doesn't feel like a smeary stain when you scroll

[frigid topaz]

Ive had phones more laggy than that

[left dove]

yeah that's good value right there

will the value last? idk but for what you get at the start I say it's gd worth

[frigid topaz]

Plus they're rubber tips so they dont hurt my ears

I would've originally bought some Sony or Samsung ones but the store only had offbrand

They had some jbl ones but double the price

For a month straight I was using iems to listen to music lol

Will never do that ever

[serene pumice]

But, why?

12400f surely does the trick already

buy a new pillow instead:

[frigid topaz]

Yeah im upgrading my i3 12100f to the 12400f in the future

My buddy has the 12400f and never had issues

Mostly gpu bottleneck I think cause he was a rx 6600

[vale widget]

problems

[sudden raven]

What’s your opinion on the Sony VAIO?

[daring crystal]

Has anyone played silksong?

[frigid topaz]

Who

[daring crystal]

I had the same question

[frigid topaz]

Never heard of it

[vale widget]

Im planning to switch to team red for my cpu , i have an i5 12400F and im planning to either get an 7 7700x, a 7600x3d, or stay and get an i5 14600k, which should i choose? (i have a 9060xt 16gb). I want to switch because my current cpu has problems

[grizzled frost]

I have

[grizzled frost]

just the most hyped indie game ever

[frigid topaz]

I5 14600k

[frigid topaz]

Never seen it

[grizzled frost]

I mean it did just come out 2 days ago

[vale widget]

what if im starting a new build?

[frigid topaz]

7700x

[vale widget]

alr thanks

[frigid topaz]

7600x3d is better for gaming but 7700x for all around

Both are really good so either is fine

[vale widget]

i literally do nothing but game, i just do some school work also, so the only thing that would be used it gaming

[frigid topaz]

7700x better but some games lean more towards the 7600x3d

Either of them is fine

Just compare the best prices of each

[vale widget]

well in microcenter, the bundle for 7700x is cheaper

[frigid topaz]

Lucky Europe doesn't have a microcenter

[vale widget]

the nearest microcenter is actually 30 min away from me

[serene pumice]

9800x3D

[vale widget]

pretty sure thats gonna bottleneck my 9060xt

[iron glen]

you should uhhh

uhhmm
find out

[vale widget]

wait

that actually is an alright combo

[frigid topaz]

Just get a 5090 and i9 14900k simpleee

[vale widget]

4.1% for 1440p ultrawide

[grizzled frost]

9800x3d*

[plain cypress]

naw they were correct

real cpu > taiwanese lego

[grizzled frost]

isn’t the 14900k made in taiwan

[plain cypress]

[frigid topaz]

Aren't 99% of cpus made in Taiwan?

That's why intel wants to build its own cpu factory but just cant

[ivory mountain]

its fine

[plain cypress]

Intel has plenty of factories

[ebon marlin]

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-speed-fortnite-mymomiskindahomeless-cringe-gif-7944978134360840147

[frigid topaz]

Yeah but they're not good as the one in taiwan

[steel umbra]

intel already produces cpu in house

[plain cypress]

but they were stuck at 14nm for many years

they've struggled with EUV nodes in terms of performance compared to 10nm

[steel umbra]

intel going fabless isn’t a wise choice imo

you’re relying on a fucking island

[frigid topaz]

I personally dont care what nm my cpu is as long it works it works

[steel umbra]

that just happens to sit on active tectonic plates

next to the other people’s rep of china

[frigid topaz]

My i7 4790s still standing strong

[plain cypress]

the current crop is disappointingly built by tsmc, although intel uses in house packaging

[plain cypress]

mainland taiwan

[ebon marlin]

ah yes intel's 14nm+++++++++++++++++++

[steel umbra]

yep, but china threat

[ebon marlin]

https://tenor.com/view/rigbycat-rigby-cat-shadow6736-iamrigbycat-funny-gif-2985618463653699699

[steel umbra]

you know politics…

[vale widget]

why does nm matter in cpus

[plain cypress]

mainland taiwan threat*

[steel umbra]

i mean china could threat taiwan

[plain cypress]

mainland taiwan could threaten real taiwan, yes

[ebon marlin]

bigger transistor density which makes it easier to make more powerful chips without making the cpu itself bigger

also bunch of other goodies

like power effiecency

[steel umbra]

it’s mainland china

[vale widget]

so it just means the cpu is just smaller

[plain cypress]

nm numbers aren't real for many many years
they really just mean a name of a node; calling a node "167 million transistors per millimeter square" doesn't have the same ring to it

[ebon marlin]

most importantly the transistors are packed more closely together

[plain cypress]

its supposed to be loosely how large a planar transistor would be at the density of the current node

[steel umbra]

you can call china - well, china or people’s republic of china
taiwan is roc

[sudden timber]

what are some good racing wheel + pedals options for under or around 200$?

[plain cypress]

but all leading edge transistors are 3D

[ebon marlin]

race wheel

[plain cypress]

not at all

the cpu size is the amount of silicon area

[steel umbra]

they’ll all eventually hit a hard limit of the size of single silicon atom

[plain cypress]

smaller transistors means you can pack more transistors into the same amount of wafer space, or produce the same product with less materials

[bold laurel]

im trying to make a jellyfin server on proxmox but when i put my own IP in on ubuntu its saying continue without network

[steel umbra]

i’m actually surprised more investors don’t pump money into asml as it literally develops the tech that allows such nano processes

[plain cypress]

https://tenor.com/view/side-eye-eye-roll-annoyed-awkward-awkward-silence-gif-8519527199733944803

[bold laurel]

can anyone maybe help me?

[plain cypress]

intel realizing they fucked up in the 2010s

they invested into EUV R&D then didn't use it

[steel umbra]

without asml we would be stuck at god who knows how large nodes

[plain cypress]

7nm class

[steel umbra]

huge proprietary monopoly

[steel umbra]

duv

[plain cypress]

expensive 7nm class with mid yields

intel 10nm already uses some quad patterning

[steel umbra]

we would be probably still stuck at triple digits

[plain cypress]

huh what

[steel umbra]

intel used asml as well for their older nodes no?

[plain cypress]

yes

ASML is also dominant in DUV

however, there are competitors (Nikon and Canon) for DUV

but ASML has the lions share

and I don't think the japanese scanners are performant for the modern DUV layers

but theres other layers that can be done with much older tech

like a power wire is huge compared to a FinFET transistor

[steel umbra]

yeah the chinese are using asml’s duv layering for their chips

and they’re thinking about limiting those machines as well for china

[queen spire]

My montior is black after pc icon pops up

Is there a way to fix that

[steel umbra]

what i meant is we would be probably stuck in triple digits by now without asml is that they were being competitive in the past

[ebon marlin]

Have you tried turning ur monitor on

[queen spire]

Yes

Its on

The pc is working but montior not displaying anything

After it shows my motherboard’s icon

[steel umbra]

@plain cypress and the point about shareholdering being that they’re literally irreplacable now for the AI boom, i’m not direct AI investor myself but if i would be i think asml looks pretty good

considering how much is going to tsmc and nvidia, not saying i would invest into asml but it looks less overpriced than most of the slop rn

[hexed tapir]

Unplug the monitor now it will always stay black

[queen spire]

Bruh

[steel umbra]

like for example palantir, i don’t get why so much money is pumped into that

the best i could get from people investing intot that is “future cash flows” but isn’t that obvious

[broken palm]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/y7KjFZ
my current build

[steel umbra]

what’s the price

[broken palm]

27 180 all the way

[vale widget]

depends, my gpu is more 1440p than 1080l, but i would go for 1080 bc of 180hz

[onyx cobalt]

random braned products on amazon

[steel umbra]

models

[broken palm]

tbh i thought mismatched ram especially ddr5 would be unstable

havent had one issue

[ebon marlin]

Don't get 27" 1080p since it looks absolutely horrendous at that size

1080p's maximum usable size is 24"

am I allowed to link them?

ive spent 37 minutes trying to run a userbenchmark test

why is their server always busy

[ocean axle]

better question, why are you using UBM?

[broken palm]

idk what other tests that do all of them

[steel umbra]

search [specific model] + review on a browser
and look for scientific reviews that include color testing, pixel response, contrast & black levels, etc.

[ebon marlin]

3dmark?

3dmark is an actually reliable benchmark software

Meanwhile Ubm is laughing stock which has biased data

ubm is da best wdym
their bias is so high you gotta rethink every other reviewer’s bias towards products

was gonna buy this^^ gpu but realised later that i probably cant afford it rn, can anyone suggest any cheaper alternatives?

i dont want to discuss the other parts on the list

[ebon marlin]

I'm already expecting the list that's going to be provided to be abysmal pooppenschlinger

[iron parcel]

Amd gpu

Idk how cheap theey are but maybe a 9070 xt

[ebon marlin]

5070 Ti and 9070xt are basically same price

Price dif is 50 bucks

[open coyote]

https://pcpricetracker.in/b/s/f8d81d1b-fa09-4fe9-9a09-08ab60526dab while we're at it, lets see if thats true, inr currency btw

[iron parcel]

Damn didnt know

[ebon marlin]

Honestly better than I was expecting

Was expecting hundreds being spent on case fans

[open coyote]

really budget bound here

[ebon marlin]

What's the price dif between cheapest 9070xt and cheapest 5070 Ti in india

[open coyote]

well tbf i was recomended that specific gpu earlier and it indeed would squeeze in my budget but there are some tasks i need cuda cores for so cant do without nvidia

[ebon marlin]

Are there other cheaper 5070 Ti's

As the gpu model is useless

I recommend just getting the cheapest 5070 Ti and not spending extra on others unless said 5070 Ti is the cheapest model

[open coyote]

there are models that are cheaper but im not really sure which one to go for

[ebon marlin]

The cheapest one

There's no real difference between the others

They all have the same gpu underneath the cooler

[open coyote]

i do see that but would going from 16gb to 12gb vram be too much of an downgrade?

im not sure

also how does going froma 3fan to 2fan model affect me ?

[warped plover]

Thats perfect

[ebon marlin]

You're looking at a 5070 non-Ti

[open coyote]

yup i know

[ebon marlin]

0%

It's the gpu giving you your performance not your fans lol

With dual fans you get less fans but bigger fans but with triple fans you get more fans that are also smaller fans

[pure grotto]

Anyone got any recommendations for a good dual monitor arm for two 27'

[ebon marlin]

Smaller fans also produce more noise

[hardy patio]

not just that presumably the actual gpu itself is bigger = more surface to remove heat
by gpu i mean the whole card

[open coyote]

i see

thats helpful to know

[warped plover]

Yea they have an option for audio drivers iirc

[gloomy vortex]

Ok so uh, How do I install asus drivers lol? I have the rar file installed but none of the applications do anything

[ebon marlin]

You have to unzip rar files

[gloomy vortex]

Well yea but it still doesnt do anything

[hexed tapir]

Normally people uninstall Asus software

[gloomy vortex]

why?

I just want to install the proper network drivers 😭

[hexed tapir]

Armory crate stinky

[gloomy vortex]

Oh yes it is

[hexed tapir]

Ahh that kind of software

[gloomy vortex]

This is the file i got from the driver page

[ebon marlin]

Also I'd advise against installing Asus's software

[gloomy vortex]

but network

this is intel driver i think

[hexed tapir]

Intel wifi/Ethernet good

[ebon marlin]

Google intel network driver

[gloomy vortex]

this the right intel network driver but it doesnt install anything. Im using "Realtek Gaming GbE Family Controller" but its limiting me to 1gbps

Somewhat

Depends on what your asking

[gleaming rose]

I'm looking at the ROG flow z13

[ebon marlin]

bro is looking at the rog flow z13

[gleaming rose]

I think because of the battery life and form factor its a good deal

but it is expensive for its performance

[ebon marlin]

yummy Oneplus 13R

also using that as my phone currently

[clear oasis]

Can you send a link to the specs your buying

[ebon marlin]

was a nice upgrade over my 12R since I disliked the curved screen

was only 275€ for a brand new one

but I did get a new phone again

[gleaming rose]

probs the 128gb model

[neon lantern]

Holy

[ebon marlin]

Realme GT 7 Pro which I got for 320€ also brand new

only downside is the chinese rom but all I need to do is flash it with the global rom

[clear oasis]

I like everything about it except the keyboard and mouse

It’s also kinda expensive for having an integrated gpu right?

[rose stream]

Love the choice of pc case there!
Also, interesting stand for your tablet and all.

[ebon marlin]

I'm no artist but I'd imagine it would be pretty uncomfortable to draw like that

[snow bloom]

the only case i could find that can go horizontal withouth being a huge brick, was thinking of going with that atx same concept case but wasn't in stock

had to 3d print the kamvas pro 12's stand as it didn't come with one

[rose stream]

Oh neat!

[snow bloom]

i don't really use it to draw, i planned to when getting it but then simply turned it into a simple display

it's function over form mostly

[rose stream]

Did you use your own printer, someone else's, or a service per chance?

[snow bloom]

used my own

also this is ehat i mean with hot rod style outside mounted cpu fnas (they wouldn't fit with the gpu and 240 aio rad insife)

[rose stream]

Which one you got?

[snow bloom]

ender 3 v3 se cuz it has auto leveling

auto bed leveiling

[rose stream]

Ah, alright then.
Which nozzle size?

[snow bloom]

stock one, i didn't change anything about the 3d printer cuz it was a birthday gift from my parents and also can't afford breaking it or upgrading it even if i plan to do so, wanted to use the laptop next to it to turn it "smart" and also use a usb webcam with octoprint to make timelapses but never figured out and gave up

[elder kelp]

guys, for my build is it worth it to spend the £30 extra for a 3 fan 9060xt 16gb?
It will fit my case much better but what's your opinion
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/gvdLQd

[snow bloom]

the 3 fan might run cooler and better a tiny bit but i'm not sure, if you wanna you can but it's not a humongous deal not look wise at least

[elder kelp]

I am probably just gonna go with it, I really like the design of the 3 fan one anyways and if I am spending £1k on a pc, I'd rather it be a gpu I like the look of over £30

[snow bloom]

yeah

i agree

[plush egret]

Ok, ngl im surprising my friend with my old pc. Hes never had a nice pc before (his is a hand me down from like the windows 7 era). It has a 5000 series amd 5 and a 3080. This is a surprise from our friend group for him and he insists he buys his own monitor

[snow bloom]

sick pc

[plush egret]

could someone help me find the best gaming monitor for around 300 usd for him?

[plush egret]

ive been blessed in life and figured this would be a lot better than trying to sell it and having a homie truly ascend

[snow bloom]

from windows 7 era to afuckin 3080 he'll probably smell the fps

in a good way

[plush egret]

i know he does a lot of emulation for like nintendo titles, do you think hed have issues on 1440p?

[snow bloom]

3080 is like good for 1440p iirc

[plush egret]

Hes always had some struggles since high school but homies a good guy and a EMT so he deserves it

[plush egret]

yeah but I even had some good expereinces on 4k around medium-high settings

[snow bloom]

depends on the game really, a aaa game at 4k is gonna CHUG but minecraft with the strongest shaders? 120fpx+ if not more

what cpu? ram?

[plush egret]

5800x processor, and 32gb DDR4 3200

[snow bloom]

damn
he's set for at least 7 years

[plush egret]

its my old setup and Im building my first "screw you" pc

no bars held https://pcpartpicker.com/list/LfNMkf

[snow bloom]

you know a gold plated 5090 would fit quite well

[plush egret]

Screw you pc but not in an oil tycoon way more like “haha im a doctor now foo!” Kind of way

Plus i love the understated pro art style

[snow bloom]

i love the fact that my fractal ridge CAN house a 50 fuckin' 90 founders

[plush egret]

i wish the 5090 had a pro art version. i built another friend a pc and he had a 4080 pro art that was beautiful

[snow bloom]

just swap the cooler from a 4080 to a 5090

taaac

[elder kelp]

what gpu would be the next step up in performance over a 9060xt 16gb? gaming btw

[snow bloom]

9070xt

[elder kelp]

what about the9070?

[neon lantern]

Nvidia recognizes my 1050ti as a GT 1030

So I can't do nvidia shadow play

[snow bloom]

worse, its between 9060xt and 9070xt

[ivory mountain]

What an interesting pc config

[snow bloom]

what in the software

[elder kelp]

thats odd, its £150 more than the 60xt but alr

[snow bloom]

it has less things inside, i remember it in the review

i wish i could get a rtx 4000 sff blackwell so bad

For exmaple ps2, the hacked menu/bios looked like a good dashbaord

[south arrow]

The one you like most ofc uwu

Sometimes

[neon lantern]

"""is the 7600""""

[elder kelp]

""""is the 7600""""

[south arrow]

[elder kelp]

💀

[neon lantern]

I saw that too 😔

[timber sun]

Yeah but I’m asking as I’m making a project called “Game OS”

[elder kelp]

🩹

[random junco]

make it however you awnt

[south arrow]

Whats your fav 3 and ill give 1

[timber sun]

Hmm Xbox one og, Xbox 360 Kinect and uhhh ps2 bios

[timber sun]

I’m asking for inspiration…

Sample of app been working on. “Game OS”

[south arrow]

Xbox one probs the most featured. Ps2 is probs easiest to work on

[timber sun]

Nintendo switch achievements

[timber sun]

I chose Xbox one dash as simple and light, but Xbox 360 was cool

[timber sun]

@south arrow see the video, it’s app I’m making. Xbox one of dash very simple, but ima have settings to change dashboard. That’s why trying to get ideas for the next one to make

[random junco]

you arent making this a publicly available open-source project, are you?

[vague glacier]

my cousin got me a free switch 2 last month and I just traded it earlier today for a one year old dell workstation laptop with an i9 in it

[timber sun]

Not fully, as it has a friends system and other stuff it’s safer not too. But I have local back ups of source code so if I do close it down I’ll make open source 🙂

[south arrow]

Fun to play with wishing lucks never hurts to make a few diffrent revisions once all the functions are in to replace the ui/image/buttons etc

[timber sun]

I’m still adding functions atm but close to being done, next step is theme, fixes for speed and more platforms

[umbral trail]

how is my air cooler doing this?

[cold skiff]

It’s not

[plush egret]

Trying to see if ive made an serious mistakes in this build. Yes i know its wildly oppulant but just thinking if im missing something https://pcpartpicker.com/list/LfNMkf

pro art is intentional. Im willing to pay for the understated sexy look

[south arrow]

If cool with cost I see no problems

Id get a better used ssd for similar price but no qualms

A beastie build all and all

A usb with windows installation media tool ofc and a windows key. Maybe a 2nd usb with the wifi driver on it wouldn't hurt any

[plush egret]

I have a windows install already and im also cannibalizing a 2tb nvme from my old pc so i got that

[random junco]

when price is not an issue, i would never get a used storage device

[south arrow]

Thats fairs

[plush egret]

agreed but honestly im never too good for an open box from best buy or sold by amazon like new

[fallen sky]

hallo

[ivory mountain]

average adrenaline temperature readings

[fickle ivy]

omg VR looks so bad without anti aliasing

especially on the quest 2 with its pretty low resolution

[thorn pewter]

Happy birthday

I think

Last time i saw you, you where one year younger

[ivory mountain]

ermmm my bday was in june but ty!11!!

[hexed tapir]

June birthdays are the best

[thorn pewter]

lmao yipe

[random junco]

tryna get ram to build another home server. cpu only supports 2133mhz, so which wld u guys get

black ram is double the distance away from me. might lean towards the white one since its also got faster speed (for future proofing potentially?)

white is unbranded tho

[hexed tapir]

Only like 4 companies make ram the rest throw logos and heatsinks on it

[random junco]

white one it is then

might look odd surrounded by black parts

but thats fine its gonna sit in the corner of the room anyways

[hexed tapir]

Hynix, Samsung, micron, Nanya Technology

I'm a big fan of the new P12 Pros.

I really disliked the base P12s acoustically but these don't have that issue. And I'm inclined to believe that static pressure rating isn't just pulled out of their ass

[daring bramble]

any recommendations for 200mm fans (idc about rgb or aesthetics i just want something high quality and reliable)

[stoic nova]

Not many options there. What case you got?

[vestal dirge]

200mm fans?

[daring bramble]

a corsair 600t, its ancient. im using the stock 200mm fans which are 3 pin and fixed rgb which is why im looking for an upgrade

[random junco]

might wanna get a new case bro..

over a decade old

[daring bramble]

yeah

im just a little lazy to be taking apart my pc and rebuilding it

[stoic nova]

The noctua 200mm are the acoustic choice. But for cooling. They're really sub par. 140mm fans are far more iterated on and you're better off with say. 2x RS140 Maxes than 2x 200mm fans

Silverstone Sharkforce 160mm are pretty dang good for how unusual the spec is

[daring bramble]

alright

thank you

Anyone happen to have this PSU: https://www.walmart.com/ip/724286138?sid=f5ebb8e6-0b98-45bb-89d9-9871d3bcd5f6 .. I got some thoughts on Lemmy (https://sh.itjust.works/post/45493802) but wondering what y'all think. It's by far the cheapest 1000w platinum

[grizzled nova]

Reading comments on the forum shows I believe what is happening
Walmart pays less and gets worse stock
2.9 star rating
3 positive ratings (could be fake)
1 positive review (marked as incentivized so it guaranteed to be a working product for them)

[fathom zephyr]

lil rgb never hurt a server

[knotty bronze]

is this a good part combo? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/B6pTyW i just need something under 1k that will play minecraft with shaders

[random junco]

z series in a server 😍

[random junco]

something under 1k shouldnt have the cheapest am5 cpu available

[grizzled nova]

Would 24 sticks of rgb go hard

[distant frigate]

Well shit lol

[latent pasture]

7500f is fine

its actual rafael instead of the monolithic with no cache ryzen 8000

[distant frigate]

The internet does have redundancy so I don’t think the cut should shut down everything completely

[fathom zephyr]

would be nice if it worked

ethernet just wont connect

ubuntu gods help me

[random junco]

thats annoying, especially in a server of all things 💔

what good is a server with no internet

offline storage ig

[fathom zephyr]

well its gonna be a jellyfin server…

[random junco]

i have a jellyfin server

[solar moat]

RIP 2dpc

[ivory mountain]

fr

[random junco]

my i3 6100 carries my entire jellyfin + immich server. the igpu transcodes 4k movies over ethernet amazingly

not bad for a £3 cpu (4 usd)

[fathom zephyr]

y?

[fathom zephyr]

the computer was just sitting around so like ima just not let it collect dust

[random junco]

nice, whats the specs

[fathom zephyr]

i dont actually know

[random junco]

ah

[empty quartz]

Whats the capacity per dimm?

[grizzled nova]

realtek nics suck on linux
im finding that out now

[empty quartz]

Thats just a rack mounted gaming pc /hj

[empty quartz]

Go nvidia for the nic

[grizzled nova]

4 GB its so tragic
but its how it came when i bought the thing

[empty quartz]

Oh

I have you “slightly” beat for my workstation

[grizzled nova]

i could upgrade to 64 per dimm
but thats 1.5k$

and i am hitting a ram bottleneck with my system
im hitting max usage a lot

[grizzled nova]

how much do you have btw

[random junco]

what do u use it for

[empty quartz]

@grizzled nova

[grizzled nova]

importing media from peer to peer connections

[random junco]

ever since i built my first server i got interested in asking others on what they use theirs for lmfao

[random junco]

no idea what that is but im proud of you

[grizzled nova]

are those 16G dimms

[fathom zephyr]

that’s exactly what that is

[empty quartz]

Nope

[grizzled nova]

32?

[empty quartz]

8x32gb

[random junco]

eight

[grizzled nova]

ah

[random junco]

i guess i was half right

[grizzled nova]

so 256?

[empty quartz]

Yuh

Only cost me like 255 cad or smt

[random junco]

wowza

[grizzled nova]

i cant hit 256 with 24 slots

[empty quartz]

You can get 384gb with 24x16gb

[grizzled nova]

24x8 is 192 24x16 is 384

or i could go 24x64 and get 1536

[empty quartz]

You dont have to populate all of them

[random junco]

i just have 2 x 8

[empty quartz]

My main has 32gb

[grizzled nova]

yea but it looks cool

and looks is the entire reason for a server right??

[distant frigate]

Man I gotta say

Bright white LED >>> Daylight

Just feels more relaxing

[fathom zephyr]

not meaning to hate but how is that more relaxing

[grizzled nova]

i feel like my laptop is going to die
im getting artifacts on screen sporatically
