[midnight wind]

using a hard drive as an OS drive is not going to be a fun experience

[ebon marlin]

have you ever used a harddrive with a computer

not a great experience

[azure topaz]

less than a megabyte a second random writes

[midnight wind]

it's the only upgrade i could literally not live without

[azure topaz]

i promise you they will be maxing out the drive

[random junco]

ive used dozens with hard drives at different rpm speeds and sata connection speeds. its fine

[tulip sparrow]

Firefox seems to use the GPU BUT not any Chrome based browsers for me on Windows

[azure topaz]

this is a crazy statement

install windows 11 on an extra hdd rn

[ebon marlin]

crazy to justify that pc is aswell

[midnight wind]

even on linux an HDD for boot drive is not fun

[azure topaz]

literally go do it

[midnight wind]

and that should be an even better case scenario than windows

[azure topaz]

otherwise dont talk because it really is that bad 😭

windows 7 was the last tolerable "modern os" i used on a hard drive

[random junco]

my ubuntu is fastfast on a seagate barracuda

[midnight wind]

if you think it's fast then try nvme 🧌

[random junco]

i have nvme. but its a terrible nvme

[ebon marlin]

cuz you're running linux

now try running a harddrive on windows 11

[midnight wind]

i find it hard to believe that any nvme drive at all could not be way faster than hdd

[azure topaz]

"install linux on the family pc"

[random junco]

windows 10 dual boot and thats a bit slower i guess but the stuff was docker and containers etc, so expected

[midnight wind]

i just straight up don't believe it because i have several linux systems running HDDs, even servers that i don't sit and wait for them to boot, and it's still slow as shit

[azure topaz]

agreed

[teal sinew]

even that was mega slow from what i remember, but i had shitty laptops

[random gyro]

how is 32GB ram bad

[random junco]

that pc has got a ssd for boot anyways

[azure topaz]

i had a not even that slow computer that couldnt even open the start menu in a reasonable amount of time on an hdd

[random junco]

who said its bad

[azure topaz]

this is what im saying dude

[azure topaz]

YOU dawg

[midnight wind]

yeah i'm pretty sure we did upgrade one of our windows 7 computers to an SSD and it was a huge boost

[azure topaz]

"cant mulltitask"

[random gyro]

you just said it..

[random junco]

typo i meant can* 💔

[azure topaz]

yeah but didnt take multiple seconds for the start menu

[midnight wind]

i think HDD vs SSD responsiveness is pretty independent of how 'fast' your OS is

[random gyro]

i got 32GB Ram and its awesome

[azure topaz]

32gb ram is just ok i probably dont need more so id rather the high speed

[teal sinew]

i wanna know how well 1R H32M tunes but i dont know of any kits using it or people that have tested it

[azure topaz]

check hwbot

[midnight wind]

its ewaste, you gotta upgrade to 2x32G ddr5-7800

[random gyro]

mine is 6000MT/S

[random junco]

my pc had 16 but i sold the cpu/gpu then i bought 32 gigs but didnt have a pc yet so now its in my home server temporarily

[little dome]

does linus have a discord account

[midnight wind]

minimum for a 5600g

[azure topaz]

mine is 7600

[random gyro]

are ya dumb 😭

[azure topaz]

7600 c32

[random junco]

yes but he will not reply to you

[ebon marlin]

It's an old dell optiplex with a 6th gen Intel cpu that could possibly have ddr3

[azure topaz]

probably wont, all my 6th gen dell stuff was d4

[random gyro]

idk i just got this pc for $1,200 from microcenter in july lol

[azure topaz]

same w/hp who i really expect to cheap out on memory

in rigs that old might find some oem bdie

[azure topaz]

idk mine was an amount

1500 or sumn

maybe like 1300

[random gyro]

it isn't bad

for my first desktop

[dawn tundra]

Oh my God well it's better than mine I guess

Mine's a power spec g235

[random gyro]

well now i have a total of 3TB instead of 1 but

[random junco]

i have 23.5tb

[random gyro]

HDD or SSD

[dawn tundra]

Yours is pretty much twice as good as mine

[random junco]

sas server

[azure topaz]

1.5 is enough for me

[random gyro]

i got the ssd in today livery

[random junco]

500gb is enough for me

[dawn tundra]

https://youtu.be/o21CDqlCSps?si=Sp98h50jrylrlRaz

[azure topaz]

tthats not an answer but assuming sas its probably hdd lol

[dawn tundra]

Oh I meant your entire computer

[random junco]

is there even such thing as a sas ssd

[random gyro]

damn

[azure topaz]

im sure theres one

[random gyro]

oh no, i got the desktop in july

[azure topaz]

yes

[random gyro]

just the ssd delivered today, and it is put in

[random junco]

who tf is buying these

[random gyro]

there's 800GB tf

[stark kiln]

Yeah, I can store most of my games on it

[dawn tundra]

Yeah I know I saw, mine's the g235

[stark kiln]

Idrc about loading times

[random gyro]

ye

[dawn tundra]

@azure topaz did you see I bought more "e-waste"

[azure topaz]

its all ewaste

[dawn tundra]

Fair I guess

[azure topaz]

even mine

[random gyro]

78% of things on earth are ewaste

[ebon marlin]

Even you

[azure topaz]

i was gonna say that

[random junco]

all my ewaste is hdds

[random gyro]

only floppa has the right to say that

[ebon marlin]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/807809192537882647/1126851866114928660/caption-3-2.gif

[random junco]

first time i have used my self hosted inventory manager

10/10 experience

[azure topaz]

i dusted my computer i reckon i will get a 10000c temp improvwement

[dawn tundra]

This

[azure topaz]

yep thats eewaste

[random junco]

does that card reader work

[random gyro]

looks beat up

[azure topaz]

my ewaste

[random junco]

mines better

[azure topaz]

ram leds so bright makes my camera mad

[tulip sparrow]

grumbles I wonder if this has anything to do with my GPU NOT being used with hardware acceleration

[random gyro]

how much was the fan

[random gyro]

tf

[azure topaz]

0$ technically

[random gyro]

is that a cheap ahh fan

[azure topaz]

no i just got it for free

[random gyro]

like quality wise too

[tulip sparrow]

Log from GPU section of Opera

[azure topaz]

no i mean it works its quiet enough and it makes my ram cold

[random gyro]

i thought i just saw a linus vid today with that fan that was a 1 star, maybe it wasn't that one

[vague glacier]

noob mistake I bought the wrong size rj45 cat6 connectors for the cable I have

[azure topaz]

well it was free and currently works so i dont really care how shit it is

[random gyro]

i js 😭

[azure topaz]

its not loud and makes the ram not 60c

[tulip sparrow]

trying to figure out why youtube and twitch won't use my GPU for playback and insist on using CPU AKA Software

[odd marsh]

mac bin GPU ewaste 🙏

[dusty mortar]

Chat rate the upgrade list
Ignore the abhorrent amount of noctua fans

[azure topaz]

nah its top 1%

[dawn tundra]

Yes it does however I had to have to do some reprogramming because it is outdated and therefore whenever it was removed the anti-tampered trigger went off so it deleted all of the information inside all I have to do is just get a copy of the software and reinstall it with a RJ45 to USB sereal, however yes I would assume that it does to work it also has the tape printer as well as obviously landline access I just need to do some rs3235 debugging, I got some information from someone but yeah I had to try at least to put it into demo mode but at least it's only going to cost you like $10 I got it for five with the camera which is the thing bottom left.

[dusty mortar]

Is that a freestanding fan

[azure topaz]

problem?

[wet ember]

i hate headphones that have their EQ tuned like this from the factory. sometimes the audio just gives me a headache

[dusty mortar]

Nope, just never seen it lmao

[azure topaz]

ram fan

but technically its not free standing

[dusty mortar]

Ah

[random junco]

people pay that much for fans?

[azure topaz]

aio tubes push down on it and makes it pretty snug

[dusty mortar]

Ah, didn’t see that at first

[azure topaz]

it is incredible

ingenuity in its finest

[dusty mortar]

*noctua fans

[odd marsh]

who is tuning their headphones like this

[wet ember]

bose

[azure topaz]

it is peak

[odd marsh]

which headphones?

[wet ember]

let me see if they have an app to adjust the eq

[dawn tundra]

Also for my 3D printer I need to edit the PID

Pain

[azure topaz]

this is how you know i know ball

[wet ember]

qc45. im not an audiophile, i just don't like this sound quality

[random junco]

⛰️ ⬅️

[random junco]

then change

[wet ember]

lemme find a bose eq app

[random junco]

bose eq app

[dusty mortar]

Whatever that one shitty true wireless one is

[odd marsh]

I'm just curious who would do this lol

[dawn tundra]

X~€™[\°>%=

[azure topaz]

you get ONLY 60hz hum and sparkle

NO mid tones allowed

[dawn tundra]

Are you kidding me again I swear

[azure topaz]

but iirc in reality its meant cause theyre meant for outside use

[dusty mortar]

Sub bass and the upper end of human hearing only

[azure topaz]

where its way harder to hear those quiet tones

[dusty mortar]

Nothing else because fuck you you get nothing

[azure topaz]

so they krank ts

[odd marsh]

yeah it's just ok

[azure topaz]

yeah its got that outside tune

[dawn tundra]

Tldr needs reprogramming have to buy debugging cable

[tulip sparrow]

hmm MIGHT have fixed my GPU issue by changing ANGLE in Opera from OpenGL to Default (undefined)

[stark kiln]

Yh I think I'll get the pc shown before. There's also gaming laptops on FBM but eh

[wet ember]

i like the sound quality of the apple earpods tho

[stark kiln]

I want to upgrade my PC from time to time

[dawn tundra]

Cuz it was giving off the tamper detection signal which is 08000 talk to someone who knew about it pretty much told me what to do even apparently has a common password but it got stuck in recovery mode

[azure topaz]

I LOVE upgrading computer

[dusty mortar]

Imma pretend I didn’t read that

[azure topaz]

i need another platform to tune

[tulip sparrow]

BUT videos don't wan't to actually play back the video section just the audio section

[dawn tundra]

I love fixing computer

[azure topaz]

then u must have faulty ears

[random junco]

eyes

[wet ember]

it's not bad lol i use them on my pc and mac all the time

[odd marsh]

APP 2 are decent, but man that's quite the fall off in the high end

[azure topaz]

airpods pro 2 eq hella good

[azure topaz]

this is why i use bass reducer

[dusty mortar]

No I just have standards

[dawn tundra]

Brain?

[random junco]

infinite loop?

[azure topaz]

you hear sound.

you do not read sound.

[random junco]

i can

[azure topaz]

it is not the eyes.

sheet music is not sound

[tulip sparrow]

Heres a video of the issue

[random junco]

aw

[dawn tundra]

@random junco but if I do fix it that's refurbished, it'll be in fully working order I can mess with it myself or even resell it for a pretty decent price I mean five bucks just for that alone it goes for about $30

[azure topaz]

if sheet music is sound i can also read sound

[odd marsh]

APP1 are pretty good

[wet ember]

where do you find these charts

[azure topaz]

rtings

[stark kiln]

If I slowly upgrade tho

[azure topaz]

this is terrible

[odd marsh]

my favorite website rtings

[azure topaz]

what the fuck do we gotta tell you dawg

[ebon marlin]

These aren't upgradable

[stark kiln]

Well my family doesn't want to do used

[azure topaz]

theres nothing to slowly upgrade in that computer.

[random junco]

tbh does seem like a hassle. do people even buy used card readers, this one looks old too

[azure topaz]

there is nothing that you do not have to completely replace to get faster

[stark kiln]

(I'm tryna convince them I can do used)

[dawn tundra]

You'd actually be really surprised

[wet ember]

dayum this is an audiophile's dream

[dusty mortar]

Ew300 DSP😩

[ebon marlin]

That computer you're showing off is quite literally used lmfao

[odd marsh]

if you like audio or displays it's great

[azure topaz]

this is a better option @stark kiln

[stark kiln]

No GPU?

[azure topaz]

yeah thats the slowly upgrade part

at least it doesnt have a 10 year old cpu that you cant upgrade

[tulip sparrow]

As can see the Video Decode is now being used for the video BUT I don't have a video as can be seen in the video I posted LOL

[azure topaz]

or case. or psu. or ssd type.

those 6th gen based hp computers are so old they dont have NVME slots most of the time

you cannot change anything in the case without replacing the case

save up another 60$ after and buy an rx 580 8gb

[dawn tundra]

Look you're going to end up replacing this entire computer for one and two you're not even getting that great of a computer in the first place is definitely subbed optimal just get something like a minimal am 5 build. Buying used isn't bad it's actually probably one of the better decisions you can make especially if you know what to look for also that is used it's from the refurbished section, you're not going to be able to get a decent computer for that much it's pretty much a workstation at that point

[azure topaz]

then at least you have something that isnt fuckin 10 years old and stuck on 4c 8t cpus

[dawn tundra]

You're not going to be able to play anything on that

Maybe cs source

[azure topaz]

i mean he would be able to but hed only benefit in the short term

[dawn tundra]

You're not going to be able to get a half decent computer for that price

[dusty mortar]

Just get a dell workstation

[azure topaz]

it has a 1660s, its not going to be slow, but if you want to go ANYWHERE from that you have to start new

[stark kiln]

Ik I literally made a used PC for 400$ on PC part picker but the issue is my family doesn't want to do used

[azure topaz]

no, his whole goal is to be able to upgrade slowly over time

[stark kiln]

If I would id 100% would do that

[azure topaz]

dont lock yourself into oem workstations

[dawn tundra]

Well here's the thing $400 a piece is not going to be good

[azure topaz]

live for no gpu while you have a computer for 2 months and then buy a 580

if you convince yourself to do something else its not my problem

[dusty mortar]

Wym bro it’s so upgradable

[empty quartz]

Im still tempted on getting either a mini pc with the “best” cpu name, or building a sff system for my dads trailer

[dawn tundra]

But again your family doesn't know what they're talking about if they don't even consider buying used

[azure topaz]

https://www.newegg.com/suevery-gaming-desktop-pcs-amd-vega-amd-ryzen-5-5600gt-16gb-ddr4-512gb-m-2-nvme-ssd-white/p/3D5-0064-00016

[dusty mortar]

Mini pc

[empty quartz]

No

Mini pc’s are barely upgradable

You can pretty much only upgrade the ssd

[wet ember]

i want a mini pc lol

[stark kiln]

Wait I think I got a better option

[stark kiln]

Monitor + a decent PC for 350

[azure topaz]

looks good

[dusty mortar]

Yeah but what are you gonna use it for

[dawn tundra]

Good enough I guess

[azure topaz]

go beg your mom

[dusty mortar]

They’re nice, don’t listen to them

[dawn tundra]

Still not really going to be able to play very many games

[azure topaz]

?

[stark kiln]

Lol I will tomorrow

[ebon marlin]

Not bad I'd ask for 300$

[empty quartz]

Gaming, streaming tv, that sort of stuff

[azure topaz]

it will be able to play almost any game hed want

[wet ember]

i wanna build an nr200 sized pc when i get the chance. more desk space is always nice

[dawn tundra]

I mean yeah the 26 will work but I guess

[dusty mortar]

Intensive games or just like, casual

Cos mine ran gta5 and Elden ring

[stark kiln]

Most intensive I want is FS 2020 cyberpunk and Ghost of Thusima even if it means going to low

[dusty mortar]

Not on high graphics but it worked

[empty quartz]

2 games that are far from graphically intensive

[azure topaz]

youll be fine

[dawn tundra]

Almost anything can really play GTA v

[idle spear]

Chat what kind of charger do I need for this I sold it to some dude on eBay and he’s tweaking about not finding a charger for it

[dawn tundra]

Didn't some guy run it on a heart monitor

[stark kiln]

So I suppose it will work

[dawn tundra]

None of those are charging parts

[empty quartz]

In before someone runs doom on an apple homepod

[idle spear]

Okay so we’re both dumb

[azure topaz]

well youre blind

[dawn tundra]

Oh wait is it the yellow one

[azure topaz]

this is the charging port right here

it has the polarity labeled lol

[azure topaz]

ai this bitch

[dawn tundra]

I'm sorry I didn't even see the labeling I thought there was another PS2 port

[azure topaz]

find out itll probably tell you

or google the model number and find it properly

[empty quartz]

@azure topaz im going to cry

[dawn tundra]

Theres SCSI connections on this...

[dusty mortar]

https://www.newegg.com/p/2VH-00N2-002U4

[empty quartz]

My brother used ai to build his website

[dusty mortar]

This it?

[empty quartz]

@azure topaz

[azure topaz]

is that much different than using like google sites or godaddy or any other website builder tho

[empty quartz]

He pretty much did what randy marsh from south park did

[dawn tundra]

I hate the "I don't wanna buy used because used bad" mentality

It really is an ignorant standpoint

[sinful cobalt]

tbf it comes with its risks but yeah

[dusty mortar]

I REMEMBER
FUCKIN RAYCON

[dawn tundra]

Well sites like eBay are actually getting better having better customer sided policies, a lot less risks nowadays.

[sinful cobalt]

i mean in general, such as meetups. Even if theres less risk, always a risk

and its not just about scams

[dawn tundra]

Yeah, I mean lunatics of exist of course

Lol

[fresh nest]

can i get an context/insider of whats the drama over there at Linus Media Group?

[azure topaz]

what

[dawn tundra]

I don't even know, I don't really even watch the channel 🤣

That often

[fresh nest]

so many people getting fired, and they start a YT channel

like Alex, Andy and maybe Jake?

[dawn tundra]

The mailing of anthrax for example

[stark kiln]

1660S can run Cyberpunk at 1080p medium 60 fps

[stark kiln]

Good enough for me lol

[dawn tundra]

Lelz

[sinful cobalt]

ugh im tired and i dont wanna go sch

[fresh nest]

sch?

[sinful cobalt]

mainly bcs im still fking sick with the flu lmao

[fresh nest]

get better soon

[stark kiln]

Honestly the PC I sent before sounds very good

3TB HDD and the 32gb DDR4 are prolly my fav

[tulip sparrow]

BANGS HEAD https://issues.chromium.org/issues/448768898

[random gyro]

my brother wants a gaming laptop, what's the best all around one, budget 1,000-1500 USD

[azure topaz]

[stark kiln]

From what ik it can handle all games here with plenty of storage left

[sinful cobalt]

32gb ram 5070ti

no idea how much it costs btw

[sinful cobalt]

GTA 4?

[random gyro]

thats not a gaming laptop 😭

[stark kiln]

I like Niko

[sinful cobalt]

im giving u the general specs to aim

[stark kiln]

• since I'm from NYC I relate a lot

Especially since I'm Slavic

[random gyro]

there's not one under $1,500 is there?]

[sinful cobalt]

u ask me i ask who? I dont live in ur country

go search it up or go ask AI then crossesearch reviews….

[astral oasis]

Hey guys, how much should i sell this? (Considering to upgrade to am5)

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YmBWMV

[azure topaz]

400-500$

[stark kiln]

Sell this to me for 400$ and a can of coke (

(really it should be like 450$-500$)

[astral oasis]

Alright thanks

And for a full am5 build what should i have as a budget? 1k?

[azure topaz]

or so

[grizzled frost]

1k would be about the recommended floor

[azure topaz]

1200 is nice

to get a decently powerful gpu

[grizzled frost]

i was just about to say that floppa

[stark kiln]

Technically you can do 1 for 500$ but it's just not worth it

[astral oasis]

Alr alr

[grizzled frost]

Glad to know we're on the same page at least

[astral oasis]

So around 1.5k to be in a sweet spot

Gotta lock in now i guess

[grizzled frost]

More or less

1.5k will get you a very competent machine

it won't be top spec, but it'll run any game perfectly fine

[azure topaz]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FpJmwY

1200$ and you have basically all you need gpu wise

1300 for a better cpu or 55070ti

1400 for both

[astral oasis]

Even my 400 mods minecraft modpack huh

[azure topaz]

1500 is just about peak of what any one should buy if they care about money

[grizzled frost]

depends on the mods

[astral oasis]

Alr thanks, i’ll save that

[grizzled frost]

400 mods is more a stability nightmare than it is a performance nightmare assuming you have enough ram

[azure topaz]

yeah if game works game works

16-20GB for that allocated should be fine

[astral oasis]

I mean i only need a powerful singlecore cpu for it to run better

[astral oasis]

I have 10 allocated…

[grizzled frost]

this is true, but i wouldn't preface it with "only"

[astral oasis]

Ram alloc isn’t the issue tho

[grizzled frost]

"400 mods" isn't super descriptive to be fair

there's singular mods that use 1-2gb of ram, and there's mods that use 1-2mb

[sinful cobalt]

400 mods of hatsune miku

[stark kiln]

Also guys do y'all think this monitor is good

[sinful cobalt]

“five hundred cigarettes” 🗣️

[azure topaz]

cheap as it gets, for you, yes

[stark kiln]

Thanks

[astral oasis]

It’s mostly mods to enhance vanilla minecraft, so they don’t eat as much as some big modpacks

[astral oasis]

60 bucks for that??

Since when did monitor come this cheap

That’s ain’t in europe

[stark kiln]

Acer refurbished

I'll assume it's good.

[astral oasis]

And it’s official too? Thought it was second hand

[stark kiln]

• my 1660S won't go past 1080p

[stark kiln]

Well it says Acer

[hexed tapir]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/ncBFf7/msi-pro-mp225-215-1920-x-1080-100-hz-monitor-pro-mp225 only decent new one is $69 for 100hz so $55 for 180hz is great

Very proud of myself for keeping TikTok to a minimum

[sinful cobalt]

X isnt the minimum?

that man is very dangerous guys watchout

[wet ember]

I don't want brain damage from short form content

On X I read sports news

[stark kiln]

I only use X for Etihad park construction progress

Basically a stadium in NYC being built

[stark kiln]

Speaking of it it's being made quickly. Like really

Pretty sure my schools auditorium sometime back was revamped for Longer

[tulip sparrow]

Seems like I may have fixed the flickering issue and video not actually working in youtube by changing a couple more FLAGS aroud in my browaser

Got my GPU decoding the video finally and no more errors with the GPU

Vulkan seems to be disabled now tho

Ok looks like enabling Vulkan is the issue for the flickering

[random gyro]

i have a 180hz, 27" monitor MSI

[stark kiln]

Is 180hz good.

I mean I got 144hz phone but is 180hz better visually (like more)

[spring latch]

i should start naming my computers 🤔

[clear canyon]

why?

[spring latch]

having to type out "AMD A9-9420e laptop" is a lil inconvinient (im lazy as fuck)

[clear canyon]

oh you mean that

[stark kiln]

Name it Matvey

[clear canyon]

I thought you ment actually naming it lol

[spring latch]

i suppose shorthands like 9420e would work, but like

[stark kiln]

Call it Matvey trust me

[spring latch]

something lile Bob-9420e is my thoughts

[spring latch]

alr

Matvey-9420e

[stark kiln]

Easier to understand

And Matvey is like a running gag in my friend group

Some dude we had a team with in hockey game was so ass we call Matvey the dude in our group who's doing terrible

His user was Matvey

[spring latch]

lol

[stark kiln]

Winlator managed to play this game

Failed portal 1 however

[spring latch]

hopefully i shallbe getting a charger for this laptop anyways

[tulip sparrow]

Give GameSir Gamehub a shot

[spring latch]

easier to have fun or fun pain with it than let it go to ewaste

[stark kiln]

Is it good

[tulip sparrow]

Yeah I have used it to play skyrim on my tablet LOL

Along with Grim Dawn

[stark kiln]

I got Snapdragon 7s gen 2 so I think it can run that

[random gyro]

yes\

[stark kiln]

Compared to 144hz is there a difference

[random gyro]

not major no

[clear canyon]

slight difference

[random gyro]

i just went with the best value, my monitor was only $140

[tulip sparrow]

I have a SD8Gen3 tablet myself with 12gb of ram and a 165hz screen

[sinful cobalt]

36hz difference (180-144)

[random gyro]

LMAO

[clear canyon]

facts

[tulip sparrow]

I perosnally have a 165hz monitor myself

Mine is a Freesync Premium monitor that works fine with GSync

[clear canyon]

freesync common

[tulip sparrow]

I do need a new GPU tho

[stark kiln]

So like 60 hz vs 98 hz

[tulip sparrow]

my 3070 Ti isn't really keeping up with the monitor on newer games lol

[sinful cobalt]

no

[azure topaz]

no

[tulip sparrow]

I need higher then 60hz on old CRTs otherwise the flickering is headache inducing

Anyone else have that issue?

[azure topaz]

https://www.unitjuggler.com/convert-frequency-from-Hz-to-ms(p).html?val=60

go crazy

[stark kiln]

Mind giving the 3070 ti to a soul in need

[tulip sparrow]

I tended to run at 72 or 80 on those

[azure topaz]

learn thatrefreshrate has diminishing returns

[dapper gull]

Is this good price is crazy

[stark kiln]

So 1ms less than 144hz

[azure topaz]

now do 60 to 98

[stark kiln]

6ms difference

[azure topaz]

lesson learned

[sinful cobalt]

lesson learnt you need to get the 720p 720hz monitor

[clear canyon]

480p 1080hz monitor

[stark kiln]

I see some CS2 players doing this

[tulip sparrow]

Pretty sure Rosewill PSUS are an accident waiting to happen

[grizzled frost]

CS2 players not even realizing they left their monitor on 240hz instead of 1080hz

[azure topaz]

to get the same diff of 60 ->120 you have to go to 540

[clear canyon]

buy me one

[azure topaz]

nuhuhuh

[stark kiln]

Gotta get that .6ms advantage

[tulip sparrow]

I have gsync enabled in windows so I shouldn't have to worry about any game not using it honestly

[grizzled frost]

.6ms really matters for those bronze players

[stark kiln]

(as if I know how that feels since I use GeForce now)

[grizzled frost]

flashbang, jesus christ

[tulip sparrow]

Nopthing I can do about that being White mode LOL

[stark kiln]

Them silver IIs when you can't headshot a AWP in catwalk on dust 2 (you have an nova)

[tulip sparrow]

Its Nvidia COntrol Panel that has never gotten a dark mode and nvidia wants to kill it regardless

[grizzled frost]

as someone who mostly plays single player sandbox games and factory builders, what does any of this mean

[tulip sparrow]

But yeah I am prettty sure GSync should be active acrosss everything with those settings

[grizzled frost]

i think i’d understand more if it was in fr*nch

[tulip sparrow]

I don't do PVP personally

[stark kiln]

Most of these is from CS2 terms

[grizzled frost]

i’ll play a pvp game occasionally, but it’s not my preferred game

if multiplayer games disappeared tmr i’d be largely unaffected

other than news, it would probably take me a while to notice

[stark kiln]

AWP is a one shkt (mostly) sniper. Catwalk is like an entrance to the A plant site. Dust 2 is a iconic map. And nova is a shotgun

[tulip sparrow]

Now if only I could fix collections working in vortex

BUT that would require NExusmods to get off their asses and give us PROPER networking controls

[sinful cobalt]

average bronze player PC when more than 3 smokes are dropped on the map:

[fringe prairie]

the bronze player opened a car after that

[gloomy isle]

Should my friend buy 4 12tb hdd or buy 2 4tb sata drives

[grizzled frost]

do you mean SSD when you say “4tb sata drives”

cause HDDs are also commonly sata

[gloomy isle]

Yes, i mean sata ssd

[grizzled frost]

depends on what he needs it for

[gloomy isle]

Nas or das

I forgot which one

[grizzled frost]

hdd’s most likely then

usually consumer NASes don’t need SSDs

[tulip sparrow]

My main bloody issue and why I need proper networking controls in Vortex

[grizzled frost]

other than maybe for cache

[tulip sparrow]

Been going on for well over a month at this rate

[gloomy isle]

Hey guys im trying to help my gf find a good office laptop that has at least 16gb ram and 1tb ssd that will last awhile without slowing down. Would this be a good one? https://www.staples.com/lenovo-v15-g4-15-6-laptop-intel-core-i5-13420h-16gb-ram-1tb-ssd-windows-11-pro-83cc002bus/product_24628028

Were looking for 500-600 range

Thinkpads im looking at are like 800-1k

[tulip sparrow]

16gb will be hard to find in that range I am pretty sure at least on newer models

[icy wadi]

Gotcha, thats what it seems like, and ones that do have it arent great from reviews

[gloomy isle]

Should i buy a (new) ryzen 5 5600 on ebay for $104.99 or a used $70 (i just copied text) Gigabyte A620M S2H mATX A620 AM5 Motherboard (Ryzen 7000-9000) Newest BIOS
Pre-Owned

Also is a $35 NVIDIA QUADRO K4200 4GB good

I replaced my evga 850w g2 with it, so sad

Had that psu for so many years

[left dove]

Deadass

[stark kiln]

Do y'all think 3tb is enough for this games

[summer crow]

The HX1500i cables are so nice I will give it that

I didnt even want custom cables

[left dove]

Yes

That won't even fill a 2tb

[thorny saddle]

From not bending tubes? qq

[summer crow]

Yeah the fittings and sanding the ends are rough

Bending tubes makes it easier to fit together I find the extra fittings make it a lot more difficult

[stark kiln]

Phew. PC I'll prolly get has 3tb HDD and 128gb SSD so this is a relief

[thorny saddle]

Literally no

[summer crow]

The weight alone id annoying

[thorny saddle]

You wimped out w/ straight runs

[summer crow]

Oh no I used to bend tubes all the time lol

Its not harder, easier with jigs

[thorny saddle]

Then what are you complaining about w/ straight runs

Its harder especially compound bends.

[left dove]

They're not gay runs

[summer crow]

My finger from sanding all the dang ends and tightening all the dang fittings over and over

[thorny saddle]

Sanding? buy a fucking tool

[summer crow]

Yeah I use sand paper to make mm adjustments

[thorny saddle]

that's absolutely foolish

[summer crow]

Why so rude? Let's see your build? What's a tool I can use in a small apartment?

[left dove]

Oh boy here we go

[summer crow]

I've built tons of nice hardline systems I honestly am over the bends

Doesn't look as clean imo

[thorny saddle]

a hand drill

[summer crow]

A hand drill with a rounded sander?

[left dove]

Tbh I wanna see a custom loop where someone uses pex

[thorny saddle]

There are literally bits to perfect the tube ends lol

[left dove]

Custom loop, plumber edition

[summer crow]

A debbur tool yes

But I sand to make it slightly shorter

[thorny saddle]

you use a 3" angle grinder

ask me how i know

[summer crow]

Can't really have that here, usually I use a belt sander but no shop atm

[thorny saddle]

I do it in my 11x16 office

straight tube + fittings is a cop out, unsubscribe

[summer crow]

Eh I like it, I grew out of bends like 6 years ago

[summer crow]

Its easy to bend near perfect every time

[thorny saddle]

I'd grow out too if I weren't good at it

[thorny saddle]

lol post your builds

@left dove I fuckin can't

[left dove]

I mean it's not that bad

[thorny saddle]

no but to say hard tube compound is "too easy"

bannable honestly

[left dove]

Even I don't wanna fuck with it

[thorny saddle]

I was born at night just not last night

[left dove]

tbh I do like the no bend look though

his build is pretty decent

[thorny saddle]

next up no tubes, just fittings ROFL

[left dove]

wireless water fittings

just like the bluetooth hose

[thorny saddle]

its just so lazy

[summer crow]

I did this in 2016 when I was like 16 bends are not hard lol. I find is easier than straight fitting runs. All you need is a jig and rulers. This is literally a 2015 build I did and we've come a long way since then

I grew out of it for sure no need to flex

[thorny saddle]

Yeah that's... a mess

[left dove]

trans build trans build

[summer crow]

Its a style

[thorny saddle]

this is not even straight

[gloomy isle]

Does anyone else have the same feeling as me?
Im broke, but if i had unlimited money i dont want to have the top of the line hardware and i just want to relax with a budget $600 pc

[thorny saddle]

no

[random gyro]

sup

[left dove]

yeah, nah

[summer crow]

Its the camera and gpu sag for that case. Needed a support bracket

Still 2016 bend tubes is so old lol

[thorny saddle]

no its not straight - look at the res and tube in front of it. look at the flow gauge and above it. just nah.

[thorny saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/jen-ok-gif-20737032

I'd feel the same way if I weren't good at it

[stark kiln]

What's that

[left dove]

whats it look like

[thorny saddle]

it looks broken

[summer crow]

Looks good to me

[thorny saddle]

I wouldn't even drive a car with an exhaust like that

[left dove]

brownie points because of the color theme

[summer crow]

Sorry you bends are not very exciting anymore lol

This is just ragebait

[thorny saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/owl-staring-at-something-robert-e-fuller-eyeing-on-something-owl-observing-tilting-my-head-gif-25308669

Look its straight

"I masterd angles 20 year ago just move your head like this"

[left dove]

5nail isnt ragebaiting tbh he's just being a stickler

[summer crow]

I think your system is pretty ugly and outdated if I am being honest thats why I prefer the new style of no bends or mix of bends and straight

[thorny saddle]

I think you're poor

[summer crow]

Yeah hes got a big ego for sure

[thorny saddle]

ROFL

[left dove]

ehhhhhh

[thorny saddle]

HUGE ego. Huge standards.

[left dove]

his ego is like a 5/10

[thorny saddle]

If I weren't able to bend compound you could talk shit

Your build is great, enjoy the no bends I guess 🙂

[left dove]

what this boils down to is per-person preference, not big deal

[thorny saddle]

Its like building a custom exhaust with bends from Jegs

[gloomy isle]

Do ALL 3 fan gpus sag

[thorny saddle]

no

[left dove]

yes somewhat

[summer crow]

Buddy is running a cheap lian li case with outdated sleeves cables, generic tubing distroplate res, zero creativity, and old purple coolant

[true drift]

do yall think it would be possible to upgrade my CPU? (im not a very hardware savvy guy)

[summer crow]

You cant run a distroplate that spoon feeds you like everyone else does, then complain about someone else's build lmao

[thorny saddle]

Bud that build doesn't even exist any more

[gloomy isle]

Why does my mini fridge make a whirring sound and sound like an apache helicopter

[thorny saddle]

That was a build for my wife lololool

(even she upgraded)

[summer crow]

It looks generic anyone could build that sorry

Post something unique

[left dove]

yeah post the new wip

[summer crow]

"I bend my own tubes" lmao

[thorny saddle]

Except you, who used no bends and fittigns

[gloomy isle]

I cant build anything im broke i have $30

[left dove]

get job

[summer crow]

I was bending tubes when I was broke and 15 years old lol

[gloomy isle]

Yeah well im 13

[thorny saddle]

I can tell

[gloomy isle]

How do you think i made $30

[summer crow]

Its cool I'd never tell someone your build sucks because they didnt watercool, bend tubes, ect Its a hobby build it how you like it. Just shows how fragile your own ego is

[left dove]

Just gonna leaaaan back & watch

[thorny saddle]

its ok I won't cry

[summer crow]

Good

[thorny saddle]

then we agree

[gloomy isle]

Can i cry for you my day isnt going well

[true drift]

i miss those days

well im still 15 so whatever

[thorny saddle]

Everyone is free to cry

I wear gpus as slippers

[left dove]

(he does)

[gloomy isle]

I wear 2gb ddr3 ram sticks as slippers get on my level brah

[thorny saddle]

I understand

[summer crow]

This was my first watercooled pc in 2014 when I was poor and had gtx 760s lmao

Look at that ssd

[thorny saddle]

Thats like 10 years after mine

[left dove]

"when I was poor"

dual gpu hardline watercooling
ok

[gloomy isle]

I dont like watercooling pc's it makes me want to cry because i cant afford anything cool like that

[summer crow]

I saved all my money that year to get those tho

[empty quartz]

:3

[left dove]

you're literally a third of the age of several people that are currently present in chat. Stay in school, develop a life.

[thorny saddle]

What I really need to know is if anyone is OC'ing 2x48GB 6000 CL26 kits

[summer crow]

Looks like a memory I've lived haha I like this

I love all the watercooled builds, there is no point to them just style

[empty quartz]

I went soft tubing because i dont hate myself too much

[thorny saddle]

💪

[summer crow]

Soft tubing has its own look too I actually like it. Gives me retro vibes

[empty quartz]

Draining a dual 480mm rad system is already hard enough

[gloomy isle]

I have no tubing :D

[left dove]

we get it, kid

[thorny saddle]

This is my soft tubing turd tier build

[gloomy isle]

Just let me be part of the conversation in peace :(

[left dove]

dont be cringe & sure

[summer crow]

The worst part about no bends is the extra $700 worth of fittings

[gloomy isle]

Im 13 im literally in the golden age of being cringe idk how to not be cringe

[thorny saddle]

is easy without $800 mobo

[limpid dune]

all tubing is soft if you believe hard enough

[empty quartz]

That board alone probably costs like 2/3’s of how much ive spent on my system

[limpid dune]

the CPU transfers heat to the radiator via Bluetooth

[thorny saddle]

RAM was like $600

[empty quartz]

$800 usd?

[gloomy isle]

If i took out my old office pc's disk drive, will i be frowned on if i use it in a build

[thorny saddle]

yes

Z890 Apex + 5090 Master ice + 9000 M/ts RAM

[limpid dune]

booting off of a disk drive is a painful experience, I'd strongly recommend a cheap SSD instead

[empty quartz]

Roughly $300 cad less than my entire system

[left dove]

Teehee my build is the prettiest

[summer crow]

I bought the asus x870e pro art creator and it came with a missing capacitor

I soldered a new one if for now

[thorny saddle]

pro art is not a good board

[left dove]

shame its so pretty

[summer crow]

Its the only one I could get with dual pcie 5.0 for now

So I went with it without waiting

[left dove]

dual gpu is dead, stop that

[thorny saddle]

yeah

[summer crow]

Not for me I do stuff with virtual machines

[thorny saddle]

so do i

that's why god made R750s

[summer crow]

I need 2, then I have Mac mini cluster for ai

[left dove]

Aaand here's where you both start getting along because of similar interests

[stark kiln]

Guys should I go for aesthetic setup or just messy

[thorny saddle]

I have exceded interest and established career don't insult me @left dove

[summer crow]

What's the worst part of the pro art?

[thorny saddle]

q-code

4 dimms

mid tier

[summer crow]

Eh thats fine with me

[left dove]

Oh shush you still act like its a hobby but the difference is that you make mad cash from it

[thorny saddle]

8000 CL30/32 or bust

[summer crow]

Its just not good for the $

[gloomy isle]

Is am4 still a good budget option or is the window closed

[sinful cobalt]

thats extremely budget

[thorny saddle]

Pre 5090 in white

[sinful cobalt]

its effectively just used market atp

[summer crow]

Check out these crazy 90s though from EK they were hard to get for me

[thorny saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/whatever-you-say-gif-16431179117705245130

[left dove]

dont listen to him, I like the fittings

[thorny saddle]

lol not even torque

[hexed tapir]

Ew ek

[summer crow]

The angled 90s are quantum torque but the fittings are not

[thorny saddle]

I bought fittings just to evaluate the look

[summer crow]

I wanted something more unique than just all quantum torque

[thorny saddle]

sure sure sure

[hexed tapir]

Supporting a company that didn't pay it's employees smh

[summer crow]

I was going for all black, chrome, carbon look

EK is hit pretty bad, they stopping selling fittings and such where I am

[thorny saddle]

I shop at Kohl's because everyone has Jordans

[summer crow]

Its personal preference

I dont need to buy trends

[thorny saddle]

Me either buy quality

thats why there's a HK block with Torque fittings

[summer crow]

I got odd cube fittings I found

Very odd cubes

[thorny saddle]

without ferrules

like dude

[summer crow]

Yeah I just put that together its not done I have another tubing run

Its not even filled, coolant will be black

[thorny saddle]

ew

no more colored coolant for me

[summer crow]

All black everything with chrome and white leds

Yeah I wasn't going to do colored, but my last build was clear

So ill try out black, otherwise I go back clear

Done with aged colored coolant unless going for a retro look

But black I never done before or seen irl

[left dove]

"aged coolant" is that where we are in the custom loop space? yall turned to whiskey snobs

[azure topaz]

i wanna dd the 13900ks

[summer crow]

I feel like its been done for so long

[thorny saddle]

"Aged coolant" is a term someone uses who missed out

[summer crow]

Check out this odd res and pump combo I found too

The classic virus but black

[thorny saddle]

IMHO carbon fiber on a PC is lame

[summer crow]

I like it now

I wanted to match my car

[thorny saddle]

[left dove]

oh you two are gonna get along great even if you both bicker like an old married couple

[thorny saddle]

I am going to get even more angry

[left dove]

fuck you thats my thing

[summer crow]

I dunno this guy is just negativity, there is no use in wasting time on an angry person. Usually fragile about their own work

[azure topaz]

mango loco monster

[summer crow]

Usually negative people are not happy with their own life

Maybe hes got some problems I dont know lol

Sorry if you do, hope you find peace though

I'll post when I put black coolant in

just post carbon fiber car and get it over with

[summer crow]

Its a SBC L31 HD block with LS coils, ignition, cam sync, ect and LS computer. Didn't put a LS in because I wanted to keep factory transmission and SBC is so cool. I have an LS already

[left dove]

its not glamping, there's no rv

[summer crow]

LS is so much better than SBC but SBC is so cool to see these days

I can swap to ls any time if I wanted

[thorny saddle]

Its like a hard tube build w/o bends

[hexed tapir]

https://www.helmet.beam.vt.edu/bicycle-helmet-ratings.html have a safe helmet?

[summer crow]

Eh ls engine is easier to build and work on

This more style points

[thorny saddle]

build a 427 ls1

[left dove]

I really should tbh, I've just been weaving in traffic going 20-30 since I got it

[summer crow]

Sure 427 ls1 I will blow my tires off and blow up and die

[thorny saddle]

I had a procharged 427 ls1 that had 30k miles on it lol

[summer crow]

Yeah insane

[thorny saddle]

No, just intelligent building

[sinful cobalt]

i wanna sleep

either that or i get a coffee

[summer crow]

Driving a 427 ls1 in a 80s car takes more skill than building the car

[thorny saddle]

no it doesn't

[hexed tapir]

P2R A20 #7 is only $60

[left dove]

car nerrrrrrrrds

[thorny saddle]

I have cars with '70s suspension and 1000 hp lol

[left dove]

I'm spending more than that on a helmet tbh

[summer crow]

Yeah then you got a driver mod

[thorny saddle]

ez

[fringe prairie]

virginia tech has a helmet rating website? 😭

[solar moat]

they like giving defects for your gear shifter nob being worn where i live

[thorny saddle]

hm?

[summer crow]

Whatever if you have a 427 ls1 supercharged its unhealthy for me because I already thought of building something insane an I dont need that in my life right now. Its already an addiction that will only get worse

[solar moat]

because gear patten numbers are worn off

[thorny saddle]

Don't build an LT1

[hexed tapir]

Yup lmao

[thorny saddle]

my tires are worn off you just don't show them that part

[summer crow]

Its not an lt1!!! That's an insult

[thorny saddle]

but it is

[summer crow]

Lt1 is different reverse cooling
