figured internals and boxes would be good 🤣

[alpine prairie]

Serial numbers of all parts. Max resolution photos of every side of the PC. Receipts if you can. All service records. Every angle possible

[brave brook]

most important is that the first picture is internals, or an outside shot if it has RGB fans. If you get a random irrelevant box picture as your main picture, many will ignore it

[trail forum]

easy

will redo my photos

[brave brook]

like this guy is selling a macbook air... this picture is as pointless as it gets

[alpine prairie]

Awful

[trail forum]

do i need to show that it boots or not really

[alpine prairie]

No. A computer is hardware. Not software. If you are selling the installion of the OS as part of the ad then you should show it

[hoary agate]

should i buy a shitty like 2013 macbook air 11 inch

[trail forum]

well yeah i will be lol

keys oem lmao

[brave brook]

something like hwinfo screenshot is a good thing to add tho, showing you are not lying about the parts, and that it also works. It's a bonus

[trail forum]

i will keep that in mind

just want the pc gone haha asap

but ik people will try to lowball this based on age

[brave brook]

It is not good for macOS (Intel macs got their last macOS update ever), it is not good for Windows (CPU too old for W11 unless you want to play the unsupported system route). Also majority of Macbook Airs were 4GB RAM, which is bad even for Linux these days

[brave brook]

that is why i have like 10 computers here, no point in selling

[alpine prairie]

I miss working in onsite support and selling all the hardware we got back from replacements.

[trail forum]

i mean to be honest i've got no use for this i7-7700k system anymore

[alpine prairie]

$300/laptop was a great bonus when you do 20/month

[brave brook]

i use older systems as server, HTPC, for experiments (testing Linux distros, learning Kubernetes and other stuff where a reinstall won't bother me on those computers), keeping around in case an emergency need for computer comes up for someone

[trail forum]

true but really selling it cus i can get some $$$ for some more storage for my new pc haha

kinda the idea behind it

[brave brook]

youtube thumbnails 😄

[trail forum]

will make some space on my desk and boot it up now

[brave brook]

(and then in video he puts in a low profile 4060)

[alpine prairie]

If you ever need a windows key let me know. I have virtually unlimited

[hoary agate]

hey twin do you have a windows 7 ultimate key 💔

[brave brook]

ok, that video was not a clickbait 😄

[hoary agate]

SOMEONE didnt watch the video

"what about the pc" would never lie

[alpine prairie]

Yes, just send me a pm and I can get it over if you're serious.

[fallow yacht]

apparently dns over https is slow af correct?

[hexed tapir]

I like the built in sag bracket

[pale flint]

is titanfall 2 good?

[alpine prairie]

Slower than DNS over TLS which is the better and recommended standard by DNS providers themselves

[brave brook]

when you got a dumb idea (it actually works, the hard drive is visible in BIOS and OS)

N2930 mini PC with a 36W adapter somehow manages to power on the hard drive, while also powering the mini PC itself

[white wraith]

Guys, I am trying to make a post in "build-a-pc" forum/channel, but Discord doesn't do anything. I set the title, post content, tags, but nothing happens when I press save/create.

[midnight wind]

is that wifi

[fallow yacht]

ye

[rigid fjord]

thermite if muscle power is to weak

[lapis talon]

I'm partly designing our new family apartment and I was thinking of making it a bit modern and smart

Like I want sensors and everything there

[rigid fjord]

add decent AP's

[lapis talon]

APs?

[rigid fjord]

access points

[lapis talon]

For LAN?

Yeah that's basically at the top of my bucket list

I probably will have a small server room as well

[rigid fjord]

for both wifi and lan

[lapis talon]

Yep

What else should I add?

[rigid fjord]

probably 2 layers of networking, one of which uses POE

[lapis talon]

Wot dat mean

[rigid fjord]

power over ethernet

[lapis talon]

No like the 2 layers

[rigid fjord]

ah, basically 2 sets of switches, one that does poe and one that doesn't do poe

[lapis talon]

I might have to get a higher end router, since I'll be keeping the router inside the server room maybe

[lapis talon]

Ohhh makes sense now

[rigid fjord]

some stuff you can run via POE and not need extra power to what's connected to a switch that does POE

like decent IP cctv camera's can do POE instead

decent wifi AP's can be done over POE tbh

[lapis talon]

ohhhh

I'll check it out in a bit

CCTV is a good idea actually

[rigid fjord]

look up nvr's

[lapis talon]

I was thinking of setting up a server to host movies and games

[rigid fjord]

network video recorders

[lapis talon]

So that I can play them from anywhere in my house with low latency

[lapis talon]

Aight

My current apartment complex uses a NVR as well I'm pretty sure

[rigid fjord]

movies sure, games eh, that will depend on the network speed not isp speed

[solar moat]

holy shit i just looked at some benchmarks with Ryzen AI Max+ 395
and its crazy vs the desktop ryzen 9 9950x

like 9950x overclocked to 6.5ghz allcore with ddr5 8466 tcl 26
not even 10% faster then a laptop chip in y-cuncher

[lapis talon]

Just offline games, and I have gigabit internet here so it's fine

[rigid fjord]

now look at the igpu it has, the 8060s, it's equal to a 3060 in performance

[lapis talon]

Is using sensors for the lights and other stuff a good idea?

To save power if possible

[solar moat]

i seen some rumers about nexts gen dsektop memory system and thinking just how much faster it will be even if it was not any faster cores

[rigid fjord]

if you're combining motion activation, yeah it can definitely help, especially if combined with led bulbs that can be dimmed

[lapis talon]

That's the plan

[rigid fjord]

led lights are much lower powered than energy saver bulbs let alone normal bulbs

[lapis talon]

I'm the only one who understands tech in my family so this is a lot of pressure for little ol me 😭

[lapis talon]

That's a given

And if it's powered with motion detection sensors, it's much better than traditional boomer ahh bulbs

[rigid fjord]

well, triggered by motion detection, not powered by it

[lapis talon]

My bad, that's what I meant

Only problem is, I'm not an architect

And I can still tell that the design that the development company provided for our apartment, is pretty whack

[rigid fjord]

nor am i, but there's tools on the interwebz you can use

[lapis talon]

I'll have to dig a bit

I was initially planning on making a blender render

But I don't know where to start

[rigid fjord]

you'd be better using cad software if you plan for a whole house, blender would be more of a room by room basis

[ebon marlin]

https://tenor.com/view/кот-кот-гадем-кот-крутой-gif-3270832292775664690

[rigid fjord]

i know if i was to set up AP's for example, i'd set up 4 of them, 2 on ground/first floor, then 2 on 2nd/1st floor

[ebon marlin]

One of Finland's biggest news sites has done the most annoying things ever

[lapis talon]

Ooo alright

Any recommendations

[lapis talon]

Problem is, it's an apartment on a single floor

[ebon marlin]

If you want to opt out of targeted ads you'll have to pay 2€ a month

[lapis talon]

Not an entire house

[rigid fjord]

with the right AP's you can mesh them so there's no signal loss, especially with swapping between AP's

[rigid fjord]

then look at how many rooms

[lapis talon]

That's what I was thinking

[fallow yacht]

turns out there's a setting to change the router to AP mode

[lapis talon]

4 bedrooms, a living room and dining room

It's around ~2100 sq. ft only so

[brave brook]

when you use a RAM bandwidth constrained test, it's obvious LPDDR5x-8000 will be close to DDR5-8466

[rigid fjord]

long hallway?

[plush wren]

200m^2 apartment wtf

[brave brook]

when someone says "only 195m2", that is a big house

[plush wren]

yes

[brave brook]

and for apartment, that is gigantic

[plush wren]

😭

[solar moat]

thats before you look at the 9950x imc hitting wall offen before 100GB's in many caess

[rigid fjord]

also look out for both the 9850x and 9950x3d2

[brave brook]

the whole reason those 395 systems are so good at LLM is exactly because lot of memory + lot of memory bandwidth

plus they are releatively cheap compared to other high memory bandwidth alternatives

[lapis talon]

Nope, HUGE living room for 0 reason

[brave brook]

AI Max 395+ 128GB motherboard from framework is sub-2000 euros, 96GB of that can be VRAM.
To get the same VRAM capacity from 3090, you would need 4 of them (at $600 per card for used one), plus a power supply, plus a HEDT motherboard with 4 PCI-E x16/x8 slots

[lapis talon]

This is what they sent me

What the

[solar moat]

i hope its not shit

[lapis talon]

There

[rigid fjord]

well dual x3d ccd and not 1x x3d and 1x non-x3d

[lapis talon]

I'm planning on changing this up, since that's a lot of space wasted

[solar moat]

i realy dont think thats going to help fix the problems with 9950x3d

[brave brook]

when building plans change and they have to squeeze in extra apartments is when we get funny shapes. My floor was initially planned to be 3 room apartments, then they switched it to 2 room apartments. That means my neighbor has one big living room and their "would be bedroom" is 6x2.5m 😄

[latent pasture]

it wont be

[brave brook]

i said "would be", as they use it as office, i guess they stash documents there

[plush wren]

What the helly

[rigid fjord]

it won't fix the dual ccd issue, but it should help a little more

[solar moat]

i not seen many workloads that scail past 1 ccd allso scail well with L3

[latent pasture]

and itll get offset by the performance loss of having to travel thru ccds
most of the benefit is probably from them being golden sample silicon lottery winners theyve been saving

[fallow yacht]

guys what's the best dns that has the lowest latency

[ebon marlin]

I see a Rog Strix Soar soundcards going for regularly cheap

Are they worth it

[fallow yacht]

y do u need a soundcard anyway

[ebon marlin]

Probably only use I'd have for one is for my Logitech speakers

Since right now they're connected to my mobo

[fallow yacht]

is the built-in one not enough

[rigid fjord]

used in place of a dac

also depending on some things, no

[ebon marlin]

I have a dac but I doubt my speakers can connect to it

Got an M-Track Solo unsure if it can run my Logitech Z533 speakers

[shrewd hinge]

Main out

[ebon marlin]

Currently I have it as a single 3.5mm have to figure out how to separate them in my cable jungle

I need to find my speakers packaging since they should have the seperate audio cables

Right now they're connected to the subwoofer and then from the subwoofer as 3.5mm to a 3.5mm port on my mobo

[buoyant bridge]

This was the most intelligent thing I've said in the past 4 hours

[ebon marlin]

I'm taking a shit rn while drinking an energy drink

I think this is way more intelligent

yall know any decent pasta rollers to use on thermal pads? i wanna buy 2mm pads and then maybe shrink them to 1mm if needed

[latent pasture]

questionable thought process

[wheat torrent]

🤤

[pale flint]

[true stirrup]

Buy the correct width pads

[solar moat]

all the cable

[vestal stream]

thats the thing

im clueless to what thickness is correct and i dont want to wait for it. id rather just buy something bigger than needed then stretch it down

[true stirrup]

Buying something bigger is a horrible idea
Either Google the thermal pad size you need, open up the GPU and measure it or ask the manufacturer

[rigid fjord]

either TPU or GN teardown picks of the gpu, will give you the thicknesses you need for pads

[kindred halo]

Is 200 To much for a i5 13600kf?

Dollars ^

[clear torrent]

hello all im going to be 3D printing a 10" server rack soon and i also want to build a NAS into it, not crazy storage probably just 2 or 4 drives, have you guys seen anyone do it before just so i can have some sort of guide towards it 🙂

[kindred halo]

Nevermind the sound is gone??

[latent pasture]

in usa brand new 12700kf and 14600kf are also $200
13600k is abt the same so its ok ig

inb4 says dollars but isnt in usa

[twin steeple]

I can get a 14600 for about 210$ in Sweden

[true stirrup]

The 5070 is faster

[kindred halo]

@left dove Unlocked the A32A

[tulip sparrow]

AMD G series Strix Halo would be NUTS particularly if it reaches 4070 levels of performance

[rigid fjord]

unlikely tbh

[tulip sparrow]

4060 levels is crazy for an apu

[rigid fjord]

more like 3060 performance tbh

still crazy performance for an igpu nowadays

[rigid fjord]

many raspi nas's have been done this way, there's several stl files for it

truenas runs on 4th gen intel for christ sake, yes a thinkcenter will handle it

[left dove]

you mean you were screen sharing on discord?

[brave brook]

literally description says "Ideal for TrueNAS, Proxmox, XCP-NG etc."

yeah its not hard to get an ip from discord

just chill dude he can't do anything

[brave brook]

you can always just pick an alternative, like OpenMediaVault or ZimaOS

ahh this is good, i was looking at this and was like idk if i want to use a pi or that zima board thing u reckon it will be easy to still use something like a thinkcentre with this? and just find another 3D printed thing to fit the mini PC in there?

[left dove]

Even my phone can pick up on the vibrancy of this fucking laptop I love it

[brave brook]

and you can obviously combine stuff - make those HDD cages and put a thinkcenter into one of the trays https://makerworld.com/en/models/1066775-lenovo-thinkcentre-m720q-m715q-m920q-10-mount

[left dove]

depends on what you're doing at uni

[clear torrent]

very helpful, thank you very much i do appreciate it

[clear torrent]

dont get a macbook very overrated

[brave brook]

it all comes down to the basic setup of:

• you need the thinkcentre to have a cover removed
• you plug in a M.2 to 6x SATA adapter into the M.2 slot
• you wire the SATA wires to the hard drives
• you get power for hard drives from somewhere
• profit 😄

[left dove]

L take

like you couldn't be more wrong

absolute fool

[weary harbor]

like computer science

[brave brook]

or you can get an mATX board instead https://makerworld.com/en/models/1455766-matx-mount-10-inch-rack - but you need to figure out where to mount the PSU for the board and hard drives, and make a front panel for the mATX board

sure, you can always just pick something like that and make a 3D print cage for it to fit in 10" rack. Still need power and data cables tho

That's the lian li(?) case that had an included psu

and it was like, mega shit

it came out like, 5-6 years back?

[brave brook]

no idea

[random junco]

looks like the average mini itx portable pc case on aliexpress

[brave brook]

like, i seen worse bulds here in Slovakia

[steel umbra]

looks like one of the chinese compact matx cases

[left dove]

nah it was a proper brand

[steel umbra]

you find on aliexpress for like 50 euros

excl. shipping

[random junco]

anyways i want to get the 2070 super but since its facebook marketplace theres a chance it might not work

[left dove]

[left dove]

oh no thats not it

[steel umbra]

ngl i’m waiting until GN covers up thermaltake psus or lian li sp850 considering they temd to be fire hazardous or shady (tt)

[brave brook]

like this 😄

or this

[left dove]

2008 ocd called

[brave brook]

imagine trying to change something

[steel umbra]

when someone takes an oem board and slaps it in a tower case and calls it gaeming

[random junco]

most oem boards dont align with tower case standoffs 😦

[left dove]

fuck yeah, sauced veggies for breakfast

[stark kiln]

Another update

[stark kiln]

Maybe I should do another update idk

Guys I need your input, I sold my laptop after getting lucky and finding a good deal on Facebook marketplace..
I travel with the family maybe twice a year for about a week or so at a time. But I've been missing having a laptop with me when I travel, not really for gaming since I got a switch and some other consoles (also ordered the AYN thor)
Lady luck struck again and I got this off of Facebook marketplace for $25 and I got someone to trade his ROG ally with me for that, is it worth it?

[stark kiln]

I'm lowk scared I don't see anything happen but still

[left dove]

I'm not sure what does that mean

[left dove]

shit trade

[fast girder]

Why is that

[thorn escarp]

discord is weird because why does streamer mode not enable itself when youre streaming

[stark kiln]

Not worth it

[thorn escarp]

like doing a screen share

[left dove]

because a screen share isn't streaming with obs

which is what it looks for

[stray portal]

Blud just use do not disturb on windows

[south arrow]

Kiddos got covid few days ago I assume at school and its hit the whole house almost, feel like doom

[rigid fjord]

yeah, makes you feel like you're hanging out of your arse

[south arrow]

No lies xD

[rigid fjord]

tbh, after having both flu and covid twice now, i can't say which one sucks more so

both fuck with you and leave you feeling like mike tyson has used you as a punching bag

[south arrow]

I thought it was just a cold/fever until I took the baby in. Congestion, hot/cold shakes

But yeah cant breath for jazz amd have to lay on one side to drain a nostril, feeling dizzy and lots of minimal sleep. First few nights I got maybe 30 minutes total with my 8 month old

I was terrified id look over and I wouldn't see him moving so I didnt sleep

Fun times

[left dove]

you know it's a required sleep when you look like you're dead

[south arrow]

I got such deep bags rn I could probs play a skeleton no makeup lol

[verbal prawn]

You good cold

*worm

[left dove]

did you see that I got a new laptop

[verbal prawn]

First time is always the worst

[south arrow]

Luckily the misses woke up and is now letting me get some alone time in bed while she takes care of the kiddos

But definitely feel like the crud

[south arrow]

Oooo what'd ya get!?

[left dove]

not this listing but same specs
https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Zephyrus-Display-GeForce-Dockztorm/dp/B0FDQ23LLL

[rigid fjord]

you know what scares you the most that you just don't sleep properly for a few weeks on end, when the baby is fine but holds it's breath while it sleeps

[south arrow]

It can be scary sometimes but day by day

Just gotta keep hoping things get better

[south arrow]

We takes ittt, how's it treating ya so far?

[left dove]

it's so good

[random gyro]

Sup

[rigid fjord]

yeah, but when they're usually quiet and do that, you end up nudging them a little while they sleep just to make sure they're alive

[stark kiln]

But can this run crysis

[left dove]

it runs bf6 at ultra at 120+fps

[rigid fjord]

funnily enough, most likely, it's more a question of "can it run cyberpunk"

[random gyro]

Is bf6 good like everyone says it is

[left dove]

I really enjoy it

[left dove]

I'd let them know y'all are sick tbh

it do be flu season, don't be a spreader

[south arrow]

Ill send a message tomorrow so if they want to change it they can

[fast girder]

So what would be a good trade if I'm looking for a something that is smaller than a laptop but can also do a bit of gaming?

[left dove]

a steam deck

[fast girder]

Or I guess just smaller than a laptop, that will be worth doing the trade

[left dove]

or just.. get a laptop

[cold skiff]

A Republic Of Gamers Ally X

Wait.. its like twice as thick as a laptop

[peak swan]

Who says the full name bruh

[cold skiff]

Does that classify as smaller?

[cold skiff]

Why tf not have a bit of fun with it ay

It’s such a shit name it only gets shitter if you give it the title it deserves

[fast girder]

Hmm see so (in case you missed my earlier message) I picked up this gaming desktop, I already got another one, better.
This one has an i7 9700 and a GTX 1660ti, I was offered a trade for a rog ally

[rigid fjord]

definitely, it also triggers you into being bit of a psycho if someone ever dares to try and harm them

[south arrow]

Leftem a message so if i need to bring a mask or whatever they can get back to me

Just want to get it all squared

[south arrow]

Joe Rogan said it best lol

[rigid fjord]

the only issue i have with this is the psu

[south arrow]

id turn into an animal lol

[rigid fjord]

what did he say?

[south arrow]

Just that'd he'd tearem apart

Ill try to find it

[rigid fjord]

ah, yeah, completely understandable

[south arrow]

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8Demmf9/

"Id be in the news with a big orange jumpsuit on"

[rigid fjord]

yeah, it's not for everyone, and not all those that are, should be

[south arrow]

Joes a charachter

[gleaming rose]

holy moly i am locked in rn

[south arrow]

Luckily though 90% of the time its just goofy stuff

Get ettt echo sheeesh blow the smoke off them fingertips

[cold skiff]

That was a damn terrible trade

[gleaming rose]

i shouldnt be typing this fast, my fingers are very cold

idk what's happening rn i'm just extremely focused out of nowhere

[cold skiff]

Fairly sure you swapped a rog ally for a fire hazard with a thermaltake smart psu

[rigid fjord]

i second joe on that tbh, the dude would be finding himself with the bike as part of his anatomy

[fast girder]

Your not the first to say it, but Why though? I don't need another gaming desktop.

[rigid fjord]

"where does the bike start, and the guy finish?"

[cold skiff]

Well the ally is worth more than that spec pc for a start.. the gpu is shite. The PSU is a fire hazard waiting to happen. I don’t know if I need to say much more

Wait you took the ally? Fair play that’s the smart deal

[stoic nova]

When the addy kicks in and suddenly need to use the toilet

[fast girder]

I have someone with the ally, waiting to trade me yea. As soon as In a few hours, so I guess it is a good deal on my part

[gleaming rose]

fr though i've never been this focused in my life

maybe it's the song im listening to

[fast girder]

I mean if the other person doesn't have a gaming desktop or money to buy one and the ally, used go for about $400 in Facebook marketplace, the cost of building, as shitty as it is, a desktop like this, it might be worth it for them

[south arrow]

Echo vibing gives +10 focus stat

[cold skiff]

An ally isn’t great but it’s convenient. Worth a punt over a 9700k 1660ti when it’s not your primary

[south arrow]

+20 typing skill, and +25 mood

[cold skiff]

That and with that psu his house burns down not yours

[fast girder]

Alright well then I'll see about doing the trade

[cold skiff]

For average 10fps less to walk around with it. Trade it my man

[fast girder]

Thank you!

[twin steeple]

I7 14700K, gigabyte z790, artic liquid freezer 2 360.

What would you guys pay? (Used)

[cold skiff]

I wouldn’t buy a cpu that will prematurely die like a cat running out infront of a car

[twin steeple]

Damn, you would instead get a am5?

[cold skiff]

Yes

[glacial crypt]

AM5 is the way to go as of current anyway

[pale flint]

sometimes they suffer

like, hours.

[kindred halo]

My board has a TPM header, can I use it to install a TPM 2.0 module to open BF6

[glacial crypt]

What are your PC specs?

[south arrow]

[kindred halo]

Errrr
I don't have TPM 2.0 by default because the board is too old, that's probably enough

[odd sparrow]

Guys, is this ok?

[kindred halo]

(i7 4770, B85m ICafe, 2x8GB 1600MHz)

[glacial crypt]

Getting a tpm 2.0 module could be a quick fix but your PC might have some hiccups on bf6

[pale flint]

a little too fast

[odd sparrow]

ikr

[kindred halo]

The GPU is good enough to run it, the ram is enough (atleast in capacity), and the fact that it's running on a 900p monitor probably helps

[pale flint]

yeaj my cps are 7 max

[glacial crypt]

Yeah your CPU is the main concerm here

[odd sparrow]

pftt, when was i at 7, like 4 years ago

[kindred halo]

I know, which is why I didn't include it in the "good enough" section

[pale flint]

progress

[kindred halo]

Atleast it's not my previous CPU lmao

An i5 4460
It was half dead from overpressure, and this helped

[glacial crypt]

Best of luck on your BF6 adventure, even if its in 30 fps

[kindred halo]

I can probably push 60 if using FSR

[pale flint]

what about 1%

[kindred halo]

Though the game ran pretty good on Zen 2 APUs, so this'll probably be decent

[thorn escarp]

bro took a coffee break during the test

[kindred halo]

We don't talk about the 1%

[pale flint]

why nit

[kindred halo]

(0.1 FPS)

[glacial crypt]

Maybe with frame gen, upscaling doesn't take any load off of your CPU

[pale flint]

ok bro

[thorn escarp]

lossless scaling is such a cool thing man

[kindred halo]

The RX 5700 XT can do frame gen?
Interessant

[thorn escarp]

ive been using it for 3x frame generation on emulators

it's so good

[glacial crypt]

Frame gen will likely help, but your base FPS being likely in the 30s or 40s certainly wont help.

[kindred halo]

I probably won't turn on frame gen at all anyway

[glacial crypt]

Best of luck

[kindred halo]

If it's atleast a stable 30 FPS experience, then I can work with it

It ran 30 on a 3400G anyway, I think my GPU and sliiiightly (barely) comparable CPU can keep up

Atleast I won't be running it on an HDD, like I did with my other battlefields

[glacial crypt]

Very based

[stark kiln]

Time to play City skylines

[glacial crypt]

4th gen intel was the budget meta for a while but sadly it's time for it to go

[kindred halo]

Btw some of the TPM 2.0 modules say "For ASUS motherboards" some "For Gigabyte motherboards" - Are they actually limited to it?

[kindred halo]

I didn't even get it because of budget, it's literally what I own lmao

[stark kiln]

STGaubron still uses those I7 4770k's in their builds

[kindred halo]

I have a workstation PC from 2016 that had an i5 4460 in it

This is it now

Pardon the cable clutter, the case has little room for cable management in the back

[glacial crypt]

I'm not trying to say your dumb or anything, they just aren't worth buying any,ore sadly. It's very understandable if your already had one tho.

[kindred halo]

It actually squishes the sleeved 24 pin from how tiny it is

[glacial crypt]

Yeah which is lowkey gross

[kindred halo]

Oh I didn't take it like that!! Was just saying lol

[stark kiln]

I mean I did get a stg PC but it has i5 7500 and a 1660S rather than a used rx580

[kindred halo]

-Also before anyone says
The GPU is NOT sagging, the shell just makes it look like it is

[stark kiln]

Holy sag

[kindred halo]

I am pulling your GPU cables out whilst the PC is running

[glacial crypt]

Nice cable management lol

[kindred halo]

Btw a little elaboration on this?

[stark kiln]

Oh no

[kindred halo]

I genuinely can't do much better, the case has so little space

It's a budget case I got for 31 dollars

It even came with 3 ARGB fans ✨

[glacial crypt]

Understandable

[kindred halo]

Though next time I get a case it's going to a full tower with E-ATX Support at the minimum
I need the space

[glacial crypt]

For what?

[kindred halo]

How's this btw

[kindred halo]

For cable management!
And so I can wipe dust and stuff without having to work at weird angles

[glacial crypt]

Okinos makes great matx cases

[rigid fjord]

absolutely not needed tbh, especially when going am4/am5/lga1200/lga1700 tbh

[kindred halo]

The header I have btw

[glacial crypt]

This is my build in the Cypress 3

[kindred halo]

I am still on LGA 1150

[kindred halo]

Unfortunately I don't think I can get their stuff?
Unless it's on Amazon

[glacial crypt]

It is, that case was $60

[kindred halo]

Usually I can't get stuff from Amazon but turns out, people here use third party shippers and will literally order stuff off you
Did it before but for Shein, very convenient

[kindred halo]

One second whilst I Google its specs

[glacial crypt]

These okinos cases are seriously amazing, I've had tons of them.

[kindred halo]

Up to mATX only.. Can't do, sorry

[glacial crypt]

They have full atx cases, but honestly matx is the sweet spot

If you want a full atx case they have a cypress 7, which iver never gotten. They have a aqua 7 which is a fishtank but I dont recomend it.

[kindred halo]

Yeah I saw the Cypress 5

Cypress 7... One second

Oh that's too expensive for me

[glacial crypt]

You should def dig into matx tho, 90% of the compatibility, 100% of the performance at 75% the cost of ATX.

[random gyro]

Hmm

[glacial crypt]

I've built probably over 100 matx systems at this rate and they're great

[random gyro]

Cap

[glacial crypt]

PC buidling is literally my job and do my own builds to sell at home

At my work 99% of our gaming PCs and probably 80% of all of our desktops are matx

[kindred halo]

I can get the Cypress 5 if I needed

Using Amazon feels so nice omg it's like I stepped into a new world

[glacial crypt]

I've never gotten the cypress 5 but I've been really impressed with okinos's value

Okinos cases have surprisingly solid materials and come with tons of stuff for cable management

[jaunty apex]

me but the opposite

[kindred halo]

I hope BF6 goes on sale this Christmas

Buying it whilst waiting for the TPM module to arrive

[glacial crypt]

Me too! I played the beta and loved it but $70 is steep

[kindred halo]

Also will any TPM 2.0 14 pin work

[kindred halo]

It's fair for the quality of the game but it's unfortunately just too much for me to fork out

[glacial crypt]

I could fork it out but I'm always looking for deals

I almost never pay full price for anything

I got my 7950X a few months ago for $300, launch price was $700

[kindred halo]

That's one hell of a save tbh

[true stirrup]

Who did you rob

[kindred halo]

I try to wait for sales, though some stuff is simply full price forever so oh well

[glacial crypt]

My boss, he likes me

[steel umbra]

it’s morr like 90% price

[glacial crypt]

Depends on the route you take

[steel umbra]

well, yeah the cheapest boards are usually matx but with chicken leg vrms

[glacial crypt]

My gigabyte b850m was $180 and its pretty awesome

[steel umbra]

mid range

[kindred halo]

@glacial crypt The board I am using is so old btw that the DVI is locked to 60Hz

[kindred halo]

Which one

[steel umbra]

i like asrock’s b650 matx boards

atx as well

[glacial crypt]

b850m gaming x wifi 6e

[steel umbra]

livermixer b650 was a killah board

[kindred halo]

One second

[true stirrup]

Such a good board
It would be so good if I could get my hands on the Z790 version for my CPU

[steel umbra]

14 rear usb

[true stirrup]

Amazing

[glacial crypt]

are they all like 3.0 tho?

[steel umbra]

8 iirc are 2.0

plenty for peripherals

[glacial crypt]

If you need that much usb thats liekly not a concern anyway

Recenlty did an am4 build with an aourus b550 that had like 5 usb 3.2 ports for no reason lol

[steel umbra]

well, i have mbs with 7 rear usbs total and it’s barely enough

[stark kiln]

Shithole city done

[true stirrup]

The thing is that that board was one of the cheapest B650 you could get
And it wasn't lacking in anything

[steel umbra]

speakers, headphones (dac), mice, mic, kb, flash drives

you run out of ports fast

[glacial crypt]

I have 4 usb 2.0, 2 usb 3.2 and on usb c 10g on my board. then 2 front panel usb 3.0 and one usb c 3.2

It's enough for me

[random gyro]

Congrats

[steel umbra]

honestly, models of buildings in cs1 are more interesting than cs2 especially low density residential

[left dove]

cs1 mods so easily too

[steel umbra]

i don’t know if you still have to but they forced you to sign in in order to use mods for cs2

[left dove]

i think that got changed

lemme check

god i forgot that cs2 requires the paradox launcher

no you don't need to sign in anymore

[steel umbra]

nice

well, the game is still festered with bugs, like when i want to build pavement underground it tends to dezone stuff, and i have to manually rezone it otherwise a skyscraper gets demolished

also sometimes underground pavement that’s around 7.5-8.25m elevation wants to connect to things overground and basicly it allows me to create a 90 degree incline
same with roads

[stark kiln]

The shit hole needs workers for the industry

[left dove]

I feel paradox pulled a bethesda

like with cs2 they essentially gave you all of the tools to mod it at your fingertips

[stark kiln]

I like CS1 currently

It's very good

[left dove]

same thing that happened with fo4, bethesda knew the community were great modders so they just gave them all the tools to make the game better

[stark kiln]

The shit hole got a bunch of workers after I made a lot of residential areas

Funny how CS1 has more users than CS2

800 people willingly living in it

[left dove]

I need the mailman to give me my ssd already 😭

1tb is NOT enough on this laptop

[stark kiln]

laughs with my 3tb HDD

[steel umbra]

oh yeah the worst bugs are where i build roads close to each other for example two parallel one alleys going in either direction and i connect them to other roads, it sometimes soft locks you because it doesn’t allow you to demolish them after you build some other roads

invalid shape

[left dove]

I now have.. 10(?)tb of nvme

no im sorry, 13tb

[dapper gull]

I love having an Asus motherboard where it takes one attempt to get into bios and not a gigabyte motherboard where it takes 15 attempts and I need to use an old membrane keyboard

Everyone is uneducated so much I need a school but I'm broke for 1

[left dove]

get a loan

[steel umbra]

debt

[left dove]

dont forget to play with zoning, policies, and taxes

[stark kiln]

I did for coal power plant already

[steel umbra]

the best strategy is to tax poorly educated 30%

[left dove]

LOL

[gleaming rose]

only 30%?

[left dove]

nah I tax the fuck out of the rich and out of the tech/office zoning

[gleaming rose]

your government will fail

[steel umbra]

it doesn’t allow me to do more :c

[stark kiln]

Rich aren't moving in yet

[tropic tapir]

how do i setup a portable linux arch usb?

[left dove]

a lot of my city work I put effort into more pedestrian travel over vehicular travel

[stark kiln]

I'll keep everyone dumb then

[steel umbra]

i do like 8-9% for offices, once i unlock high density offices my profit goes through the roof

[stark kiln]

Now my people have slight education

[steel umbra]

because i give -10% taxes to the highly educated

[left dove]

high density residential is a blessing and a curse because those towers produce SO MUCH GARBAGE

but also, incinerators

[steel umbra]

signature buildings are also way too broken

[stark kiln]

Housing crisis solved by building housing

[left dove]

yeah but the housing crisis will exist in 20 years again when all of the cheaply-built houses start crumbling

I'm excited to build this lil guy today

[tropic tapir]

with tutorials, with chat gpt

[delicate cloud]

me back again

[steel umbra]

industrial waste processing facality or whatever it’s called

[stark kiln]

More housing

[steel umbra]

it’s broken

[brave brook]

they produce more or less same amount of garbage as rural communities. Just more concentrated, because you know, more people

[true stirrup]

https://youtu.be/yYyh3PrIB7w?si=WyPGbR1MAIDlAHVC

[left dove]

fuck you warshit >:C

[steel umbra]

warmiss

[stark kiln]

What do districts do?

[steel umbra]

you can ban like trucks

raise parking fees

[left dove]

policies, so you can set one district for like, farmland, and another for modern residential, or for oil/ore refinery

[stark kiln]

Oh

[left dove]

force metered water & electricity, legalize cannabis, ban gas vehicles, etc

that last one I think is just cs2 but I don't remember everything in cs1

[steel umbra]

you can legalize cannabis in vanilla cs2??

[left dove]

they call it "recreational use" or something

[stark kiln]

Shithole update

[steel umbra]

what are the downsides

and upsides

[left dove]

More budget to law enforcement and slightly higher crime rate depending on neighborhood characteristics

[left dove]

Happy meter go up, I think there's a small drop in medical demand?

[stark kiln]

Also can I buy tiles?

[left dove]

I'm amazed I remember any of this I haven't played cs in like a year

[left dove]

Yes, lower left corner

[stark kiln]

4k it says

[latent gull]

Weed in counterstrike?

[left dove]

Cities

[steel umbra]

citiescounterstrike

[gloomy sleet]

slow asf today

usually getting atleast 5

[stark kiln]

Mine is 5 mbps be happy 😭

[latent gull]

Counterstrike: cities

[left dove]

Yeah it's been kinda fucky in my area too for some downloads

[steel umbra]

also, when you start your city 100% decrease fees for electricity and especially water

it brings a bunch of demand

[stark kiln]

Now my city connects to highway

[gloomy sleet]

sky generally is a really inconsistent experience

[quasi moat]

20 years…

[steel umbra]

water costs barely anything when you suck it from rivers

[stark kiln]

Should I take a loan from silver sunset bank or global credit

[random junco]

dont take loans just save for it

esp for pc parts lol

[stark kiln]

I need a police station there's bunch of crime

[steel umbra]

also they changed something in recent update how crime works

before you could just let your city be without law enforcement when your cits were happy and place it later and it would all just turn green and no more crime

now when you don’t place a police station after unlocking law enforcement your city turns into crime issues all over

[vast thorn]

why are ram prices going through the roof in india
they went up like 60-70% here or something

[gleaming rose]

I mean is $1750 reasonable for a 14700k, 7900xtx, DDR5-6000 and 2tb of nvme storage?

[left dove]

ai boom causing nand & ram shortages again

[nimble marsh]

yo guys what the hell is FileCoAuth.exe and why is it crashing each minute for me

[arctic tapir]

Best keyboard I've owned so far, need to get jeycaps for it yet, also probably my heaviest at 2.5kg!

[left dove]

google still works you know

[nimble marsh]

wanted to get an instant help from ppl with experience and not from an AI that barely functions

[craggy cove]

how do i obtain

[bronze summit]

Instant... Help? From people with experience?

[latent gull]

…mod?

[sleek ibex]

It's at a point where I might say "fuck it" and hop on the AI train for reasons you can imagine why

[bronze summit]

https://tenor.com/view/popcorn-minions-popcorn-day-laugh-gif-5026739

[left dove]

dude i put the bare minimum into google to get the answer you wanted and yet you still complain about "bad ai" like what

[vast thorn]

oh
crazy

[wheat torrent]

working on a blackhole

[craggy cove]

ill call mod if u lied about narcotics in video games...

[sleek ibex]

Because Computer Engineering field is not looking good

[gleaming rose]

that's my dream profession 😭

[latent gull]

Then do t use the AI, use Google to get factual answers, you know, it is still a search engine

[left dove]

weed is not a narcotic you rotten tilapia

[empty quartz]

I love the 2018 iphone 14 pro

[craggy cove]

[empty quartz]

[gloomy sleet]

oh you mean scones

[empty quartz]

Scone

[latent gull]

No I mean biscuits

[gloomy sleet]

what you call a biscuit everyone else on the planet calls a scone

[left dove]

shut up

[latent gull]

Scones are not light fluffy and melt in your mouth

[left dove]

shut up with your weird british foodthings

[latent gull]

Yeah but we do it best so yall are the wrong ones

[stark kiln]

Shit hole city is growing

[left dove]

you loyalist redcoat

[gloomy sleet]

i dont even think thats a british thing

[empty quartz]

Vancouver is growing?

[gloomy sleet]

ive just literally never heard biscuit before to refer to a scone

[stark kiln]

Detroit aswell

[latent gull]

Pretending to not know what I mean by biscuit just to act more correct than others definitely is a British thing

[gloomy sleet]

what does this even mean??

[stark kiln]

Now my shit hole is a tiny townv

[left dove]

my guy doesn't even know his own history lmao

[gloomy sleet]

i genuinely thought you were claiming kfc sold cookies(or biscuits)

[empty quartz]

I wonder if my fastest ddr3 kit is as fast as ddr4 2400

[gloomy sleet]

apparently not

[latent gull]

Most places do

[left dove]

vaux its nearly every day that you continue to astound me with your lack of common knowledge

[gleaming rose]

it hasn't sold in months, am I impatient or being unreasonable with the price

[latent gull]

What a fucking website

[gloomy sleet]

oh shit they do

[latent gull]

Most food places do

[gloomy sleet]

i mean if they didnt teach that part of history in school id argue it isnt common knowledge

[random gyro]

What the

[gloomy sleet]

i need to try a kfc biscuit now

[latent gull]

Their cookies are probably shit, but their biscuits are great

[gloomy sleet]

ive had their scones before and they are terrible

way too buttery and sweet

[latent gull]

That’s because scones suck, biscuits rock

[gloomy sleet]

theyre the same thing?

from what im looking at they are

[left dove]

god you british turds just like trying to steal the rest of the world's food don't you

:C

[gloomy sleet]

what

we invented the scone

[left dove]

I bet someone did it before you

and you took it like you took the spices and tea.

dirty redcoat >:C

this is all /j btw

[stark kiln]

Fuck i'm losing money

Time for more industrial areas

[gloomy sleet]

i mean probably it isn’t the most complicated thing in the world

[gloomy sleet]

i still don’t get this lmao

[frigid blade]

at least it originates from the scotts not the english

[left dove]

back when we decided to leave your british lands, y'all's army wore red

and y'all were "loyal" to the queen

America wore like, brown/blue

[odd sparrow]

so?

[stark kiln]

Yep

[stark kiln]

Brown as the militia pre 1776. Blue afterwards

[left dove]

What soup said

[odd sparrow]

is about 90wpm good? No punctuation tho, just text

[stark kiln]

Y'all wore ugly red till industrial revolution kicked in

[left dove]

yall wore red because then blood wouldn't show up when you got shot

[stark kiln]

Easier to hit even

[left dove]

[gleaming rose]

wdym good

[stark kiln]

Made 4 districts

[gleaming rose]

is it good enough for you? you're the typist

[odd sparrow]

i mean compared to other people, like is there alot that get over 90

[odd sparrow]

I dont even type that much tbh

[gleaming rose]

90 is high

[river magnet]

Hey, im not sure what to pick at the moment. Would you use a 14 inch or 16 inch laptop for school?

[gleaming rose]

depends on how big a screen you want

14 inch is lighter and is what I'd personally choose

it is completely subjective

[frigid blade]

2 inches is a huge difference

[left dove]

I've owned 3 14" devices now, i love the form factor

plus if you wanna run a smaller backpack, it can fit

[gleaming rose]

yeah

I'll be getting something 14in or smaller when my PC sells

[stark kiln]

Somehow my city is happy despite my ass design

And a game shop needs high education workers 🫩

[left dove]

It's surprisingly easy to keep a small town happy despite a shitty layout

it's because it hasn't gotten large enough to the point where travel starts to become a daily inconvenience

[river magnet]

I can get a 16 inch Laptop(2 in 1, Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 256 V, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, 2,5K-Mini-LED-Display) for about 900 Euro.
Do you have suggestions for 14 inch Laptops with similar specs in a similar price range?

[stark kiln]

True

No smoking as well we have a lot of pollution already

[stoic nova]

Dude hitting a cancer stick is a drop in the bucket compared to like...owning a freezer

[daring crystal]

🇦🇱 - Albanian government claimed that their AI minister got pregnant and soon it will give birth to 83 AI babies that will help lower level officials with their work tasks daily.

[distant frigate]

Damn. Really good speeds near my high school

[stark kiln]

Taxing everyone 12% yet they're all happy

[frigid blade]

bro what

[stark kiln]

(Mind you they have education so this isn't like 1984)

[left dove]

dude what crack are you smoking

[frigid blade]

take your weird fantasies somewhere else

[stoic nova]

I want some. Looks gnarly

[vast thorn]

to a r5 7600x, rx 9060 xt 16gb, 32 gb of dual channel ram, fast m.2 ssd (crucial t500), 1440p 300hz

[stark kiln]

[vast thorn]

hmm

[stark kiln]

Insane basically

[vast thorn]

[small jasper]

Does anyone know where i can get the latest firmware for the intel res2sv240 raid expander card? Their website seems to just not have it anymore.

[stark kiln]

Speaking as I did that upgrade))

[vast thorn]

[stark kiln]

My PC has i5 7500, the said GPU, 2400mhz DDR4 32gb RAM. 3tb HDD

[stark kiln]

Not the best but it runs all I ever wanted

[vast thorn]

[distant frigate]

Now speeds are not as good. Low-band 5G mainly

[stark kiln]

66mbps is godly for me

[distant frigate]

Lmao found a pocket of mid-band 5G

[vast thorn]

[tired bear]

[vast thorn]

[vast thorn]

[distant frigate]

Not as insane as this

This is in the city area

[solid quail]

how do we like the 40€ CPU performance

[vast thorn]

2gbps

[stark kiln]

My T-Mobile is ass how's yours that good

[vast thorn]

interesting

[vast thorn]

[ebon marlin]

Even my grandma has faster internet than this

[distant frigate]

I love being in almost the middle of nowhere

[tired bear]

is that sugarcane?

[distant frigate]

I don’t think so

[random gyro]

How ya get 2000

[distant frigate]

Yay much faster speeds. Walking towards back the suburban area

[cold skiff]

Nothing like Andos daily update on interweb speeds

Reminds me I’m in TC1

[left dove]

I still fully expect this kid to get a job in network infra

[random gyro]

Not a bad thing

[cold skiff]

And to pioneer broadband in rural areas

[left dove]

Right??

[random gyro]

Not as bad as an Intel troller going to the AMD server

[left dove]

nobody said it was bad

[random gyro]

I thought deth said it like it was
