[fallow yacht]

guys should i set my 5ghz channels to auto or fuck it and try all channels and keep the best?

[median heart]

How do i put on dedicated graphics card on a gigabyte laptop?

[latent pasture]

isnt it in windows settings

system>display>graphics
u find a list of ur apps and u can tell them to use igpu or dgpu

if its not there, manually find the exe file
if u dont know the exe file, open the game then look at task manager what is running, u can right click it to open file location

[median heart]

Ill look

Also how do i stop my scroll wheel from moving so much it literally moves when i move my mouse its annoying

Its the logitech g502 hero

[median heart]

Nvm i fixed it

[fallow yacht]

cloudflare apparently switches from taiwan hong kong and manila

school laptop with no admin perms moment

[woven wigeon]

space : 1tb

[median heart]

Bro why does it say my gpu is intel uhd graphics when it should be a 5050 wyf

[woven wigeon]

uh

maybe reseat power cabe, try again

if no work then reseat whole gpu then try again

[woven wigeon]

could you give a screen shot

to make one press windows + shift + s

and paste it into here

[median heart]

Ill send a picture wait

[halcyon beacon]

You probably have two GPUs then? =£

[woven wigeon]

send a pic of the full task manager window

[median heart]

I think so but im not seeing an option to switch to the nvidia one

[woven wigeon]

heres what do do :
right click windows icon and press device manager

[ionic peak]

Gamer gpi

[woven wigeon]

under display adapters

is there any sign of a gpuand if no

[median heart]

No there isnt

[woven wigeon]

check the unknown devices tab or smth simmular

[median heart]

I dont see an unknown devices tab

[ionic peak]

roblox

[median heart]

Have i been scammed bro

[ebon marlin]

You have igpu mode only enabled

[woven wigeon]

do you know whats the model of your laptop

[woven wigeon]

it will still show up

[ebon marlin]

No

Not how Mux switch works

[median heart]

This

[ebon marlin]

A Mux switch will completely disable the gpu

[median heart]

Yeah but where do i change it

[trail forum]

gpu util down now after restart

[ebon marlin]

It can be changed through software or bios

[trail forum]

now i can go to bed

fucking everyone automatically assumes u got a cryptominer

[woven wigeon]

i will swivh my laptop to igpu mode and ill see will it show my nvidia card

[median heart]

How do i do that mb i suck at twch

[ebon marlin]

That just means ur on hybrid mode

With a mux switch you can be strictly igpu mode

If I could I would show an example but I can't since my laptop doesn't have any ram currently

[median heart]

Where do i switch it then

[random gyro]

hello babas... what r we thinking of this...

[ebon marlin]

Google is fortunately very helpful

[ebon marlin]

Poop

[random gyro]

💔

[woven wigeon]

yep whwn jm on igpu mode it onlt losts my ipgu on the task manager

[ebon marlin]

Check ur local used market

[median heart]

How do i get into the bios thing

[ebon marlin]

I had a stroke trying to read that

[queen trout]

I just ordered a rx 9060xt!!!!

[ebon marlin]

Did you even try reading what I sent 😭

It says right there

[woven wigeon]

thinking how to respond to that

[median heart]

Neither of those do anytjing

[ebon marlin]

Did you try reading what I sent

[median heart]

Ill download the gigabyte control centre

[woven wigeon]

it says the control centre OR the bios

[median heart]

I dont see what you sent

[random gyro]

[ebon marlin]

Cannot be this hard to read

[median heart]

2mbps my internet is sooooo good

[median heart]

I didnt see the restart the laptop part

Why is it not charging while plugged in this shit sooo confusing

[ebon marlin]

Tiktok brainrot is crazy

[ebon marlin]

Are you at 80%

You probably have battery protection turned on

Which limits the battery's max charge to 50% or 80% depending on the laptop

On my girlfriends Lenovo Legion 5 2021 model it restricts it to 50% meanwhile my Lenovo Loq 9th gen is 80%

[fallow yacht]

guys my brother believes too much devices in 5ghz can congest the band that's why he does not allow it for guests lmao

[median heart]

Nope im at like 10%

[ebon marlin]

Isn't it the otherway around with 2.4ghz since everything uses 2.4ghz

[random gyro]

PLEASE close ur tabs

[median heart]

is this laptop just broken or something man

[random gyro]

im begging you

[gleaming rose]

I have hundreds on chrome mobile

[random gyro]

oh...

[fallow yacht]

idk he meant that if there are too much devices connected to 5ghz wifi it'll slow down

[ebon marlin]

No you just don't have it fully plugged in

Check ur power brick aswell

[random gyro]

i think i may explode

[ionic peak]

how

[ebon marlin]

Yet you're buying used?

[random gyro]

its not used

[ebon marlin]

It is?

[median heart]

Nope everythings fully plugged in

[random gyro]

the 4770 is brand new 💔

[woven wigeon]

uhm it is saying often

[random gyro]

its a KIT

with RAM and a MOTHERBOARD

[woven wigeon]

its not saying that its 100% the f2 key or smth

[ebon marlin]

Everything here is used

[random gyro]

its literally not used bro 💔

[ionic peak]

[random gyro]

nowhere in the ad says its used

[ebon marlin]

Can we be fr

Are you expecting almost 12 year old hardware to be brand new

[ionic peak]

Rip cpu

[random gyro]

🤤 yes!

ok wait let me check

[ebon marlin]

You cannot find that stuff brand new unless you can find a collector that collects stuff like that

[woven wigeon]

why would intel waste their expensive machines to make stuff thats just e- waste for 90% of pepole

[random gyro]

well ... th e ad doesnt say anything about its condition

[ebon marlin]

Some people are just unaware about the most obvious stuff ever

[random gyro]

ok whatever what if its used,,,, my mom wont know since its on amazon and she trusts said big corp with our money

🔥

think smart not hard

[ebon marlin]

Also if your electricity is somewhat unstable which is common in low-income households and underdeveloped countries you can expect to lose ur computer with that powersupply

[woven wigeon]

uhm

is your country poor because thats worse specs than my school laptops

[random gyro]

we are not low income i just dont wanna spend 5 billion trillion million billion reais on a pc

[woven wigeon]

also wheres the storage

[random gyro]

surprisingly its way better than my private school's pcs

[woven wigeon]

WHAT-

[random gyro]

yes !

[ebon marlin]

My 200€ i5 12450HX and Rtx 2050 laptop is most likely better than that while running a significantly worse gpu

[woven wigeon]

my public school has computers

[random gyro]

and it's a predominantly rich school so idk why they won't spend more money on a better pc that doesn't lag and crash every few days

[woven wigeon]

my clasroom has a fourth gen i3 and a 256 gig sata ssd

and the classroom next door ?

laptop that has an hdd (teacher dosent shut it doen just makes it sleep) and for some reason has a usb c port and a 7th gen i3

[ebon marlin]

My public school computer was running an i9 10850K which I had overclocked to 5.2ghz all core

[random gyro]

[ebon marlin]

It was like my own school computer which I did all my stuff on

[random gyro]

i think we might be broke

[ebon marlin]

[woven wigeon]

my school 4 eyars ago had windows 7 pcs runnin win 10

got rid of them to replace with gaming laptops win gtx 1060 gpus

and some idk 10th gen or smth i7 cpus

[fallow yacht]

what the fuck

meanwhile our school is using refurbished optiplexes with unlicensed ms office lmao

[ebon marlin]

I had it overclocked to 5.2ghz all core with a single tower cooler

And it ran fine lol

This was also when i9 had 10 cores

[random gyro]

the university in my school which is also private and also very rich has similar specs in their computers

[ebon marlin]

I already have graduated but I've heard they're slowly upgrading the systems to zen5

[random gyro]

br o..

[ebon marlin]

So Ryzen 7000+ series

It was fun at that school since me and my friend had backdoor access to literally every single computer there

[random gyro]

from what ice heard public schools in brazil font have computers so its mind blowing that your public schools have better specs than our elite schools

mind bogglging insane cuckoo crazy

[latent pasture]

[craggy cove]

i know that but even used prices spiked up that fast?

i was planning to also build a ddr5 system but uhh 150€ for 32gb nty

[woven wigeon]

they prob have the mindset like " if its expensive at amazon it will be expensive in facebook marketplace"

[craggy cove]

well thats logical and true

[latent pasture]

ye lmao

[craggy cove]

i bought these for 29.99€ last year...

[drifting urchin]

rarity isn't somethings worth, but its pretty close

[woven wigeon]

but yes, i do like my mspaint

i never really needed adobe

[craggy cove]

holy just found some 3200mhz cl16 for 25€

2x8gb ez

[drifting urchin]

if the guy im trying to message has what he has for sale still and didnt look at new prices might get a great deal

[craggy cove]

listing posted 15:34, i replied 15:39 after thinking a little

just has a scratch on it but like its ram

[latent pasture]

if its just the outside and the ram is fully unharmed its fine

u cant even see that when the sticks r side by side

[craggy cove]

yeah thought the same

[sick reef]

ofc retrodev is filled with people who haven't experienced with high refresh rate monitors and broke

[ebon marlin]

yummer

[sick reef]

roblox is too casual

[craggy cove]

ram prices skyrocketed in the last 7 days or so so i cant blame him

[ebon marlin]

Meanwhile I got brand new 2x16gb ddr5 6000cl36 for 96€

[sick reef]

they're insanely coping

nope, use secure boot, man fu game ,

[gleaming rose]

why not just use secure boot

[drifting urchin]

thats the thing i think i tried going into bios and its just like lol nope

[gleaming rose]

I guarantee it's in there somewhere

[drifting urchin]

that or i'd have to do total new install windows

[gleaming rose]

[random gyro]

i hope they dont get to my other disbanded/inactive goats

[drifting urchin]

huh, im not sure then i'd have to record it with phone or something

cuz im pretty sure it just tells me nope every time, maybe tpm related or something, i forget cuz i dont even bother trying any more

[ebon marlin]

You have to enable secure boot and then reset some encryption keys

[old hemlock]

I need help.
I just bought Asus strix scar 18 5090.
And i am trying to connect my eGPU to the TB5 port.
and when i do that my laptop screen goes black and my iGPU get error and disconnect and only my eGPU shows. When i unplug my egpu the screen is still balck and only way to fix this problem is reinstall Nvidia gpu driver

[random gyro]

but gaming tests using the 3770 or whatever and the 4060 seemed to perform well

so,,,

[sinful cobalt]

afaik 50 series has problems with EGPU

I DM you. Hope i know a little 🙂

[nova barn]

why are people ok with non repalce able batter in phone with deal with glue and prying is why we have so much ewast and that soc in phone cant be upgrde

[drifting urchin]

ya, i know why i cant play bf2042

game needs secure boot, on my board, it tells me to enrollpk and then disable csm and restart and enable secure boot

then for some reason i go into boot loop into uefi, until i revert

[sinful cobalt]

why are you like this 24/7

[nova barn]

hey so many people say that why this country have problme

[sinful cobalt]

the entire world has its problems its not just urs

[nova barn]

they say it why and also that people are not ok with old computer and low end phone so cost of living cna stay low

[cold skiff]

Mattp is right. Not having replaceable phone batteries as standard is what is bringing America to its knees. Rise up against your re-usable overlords and show them who is boss!

[old hemlock]

my problem

This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)

The I/O device is configured incorrectly or the configuration parameters to the driver are incorrect.

My error for laptop gpu

when connecting egpu 2080

[nova barn]

and also that minum wage is low while my dad say poeple shuld be happy with this

[proud island]

What specs?

[ionic peak]

[cold skiff]

Rise up against the low minimum wage overlords in their ivory towers!

[clear canyon]

How are you still on this topic man

Everytime i see you say something its about that lol

[sinful cobalt]

i wanna know what he’s smoking till now

it sounds very addictive

[clear canyon]

Like, he ONLY talks about a single thing

[brave brook]

this ain't even a topic anymore. Soon it will be mandatory in EU to heave easily replaceable batteries

[clear canyon]

No, im saying everytime mattp types in this server, its the same thing every time

Its the exact same thing

[brave brook]

yeah, i just mean he is preaching to the already solved problem 🙂

Article 11 of the EU Battery Regulation specifies that devices must include batteries that can be safely taken out and replaced by the end user. This must be possible with commercially available tools and without damaging or destroying the battery or the product. Additionally, devices need to work with both original and compatible batteries. The rules also requires portable batteries or LMT batteries be available at a reasonable price as spare parts for at least five years after the last unit is placed on the market.
In mid-February 2027

and we already know that if EU makes such regulation, most companies will apply it worldwide. Like when EU pushed for USB-C everywhere, Apple moved to USB-C worldwide. Same will happen with these batteries. Maybe with exception of China only models

[sinful cobalt]

he might be on kpods

[nova barn]

how are they expet it to be replace are they mkae it swap able or just replalbe able by remove 2 scree on the botom

[clear canyon]

Then there is this, like dude, we know ur dad is very odd on what he thinks about things, but you dont need to repeat it every second you are active here

[brave brook]

yes, screws or removable covers, and no glue. That is a problem for manufacturers to solve, they got 1 year and 3 months for that

[nova barn]

which he beivle is neccy to kepe wag low so he cna aford live tv at 80$ a month and other stuff becuse he did his work at a 9 to 5 job for 30 year

[clear canyon]

Brother

[nova barn]

what i want was from the start samsun and so on cant maek battry becuase they be a comon size

so that you can upgde the phone or battry or swap to a differ one and have a few spare the full family can use

[brave brook]

the real problem of the user replaceable battery will be all the small phone repair shops. Third of their income is replacing old batteries, now all they will do is to replace broken screens /s

[nova barn]

while dad say he have a 7 year old phone that he got for 99$ that still working today so it there fautl for use phone too much instead of waiting for laptop

[clear canyon]

Ethernet*

[dapper gull]

NVM it's happening on 100hz now also

[ionic peak]

same stuff

[gleaming rose]

do you know what lan stands for

[clear canyon]

You spelt it wrong

[ionic peak]

local acces network?

[ionic peak]

but you guest it

[gleaming rose]

and in what way is that related to an Ethernet cable

[clear canyon]

Area

[ionic peak]

ah ok

[ionic peak]

idk also uses a cabel

[gleaming rose]

remind me what it stands for again

[ionic peak]

remind you?

[gleaming rose]

you're literally telling someone to use their own wifi network in order to speed up a steam download

you could have just said "Ethernet cable" initially

you're worse than tgod because at least he was funny

[harsh falcon]

that's smart

[delicate escarp]

Ima get my first oled today, can’t wait to use it!

[harsh falcon]

oof yes let's do it

[gleaming rose]

congrats

[ionic peak]

You are so helpfull

[ionic peak]

Congratulation

[harsh falcon]

wait oled monitor or oled tv

[random gyro]

Sup

[ionic peak]

Prob oled monitor

[ionic peak]

Hi

[harsh falcon]

what's up

[delicate escarp]

monitor lol, prob should’ve said that 😂

[harsh falcon]

ahh okay

[random gyro]

How it go

[random gyro]

Nm hbu

[ionic peak]

Good rn im eating speculatzius

[harsh falcon]

great

[harsh falcon]

you have to use 2.4ghz wifi network to allow for more bandwidth bro

[random gyro]

?

[harsh falcon]

I think he meant spaghetti

[swift dawn]

https://tenor.com/view/this-is-fine-gif-24177057

[random gyro]

oh

thats the price of a gpu

why would someone other than to flaunt how much moneu they have buy this

[swift dawn]

dont you worry im sure next week ram will be the price of a 5090

[delicate escarp]

I just built my pc like a month ago and I’m glad I didn’t wait any longer so I didn’t have to deal with these ram prices

[ionic peak]

ye is it by ddr4 to?

[turbid lily]

Can I get some advice on if this is enough for a setup for cameras around the house? I currently use Nest and they raised their pricing to 12 euros per month here for 30-day, and the motion sense doesnt always record everything and or sometimes it is slow. I want to be able to record 24/7 but that is like 25 euros per month here for Nest, I have heard Ubiquiti is good and I can keep it local(?), I went through some forums and made this shopping list, anything I am missing or the parts are okay to make the cameras work and that I can access it outside of my home. I plan to use the 2 cameras outside (will paint them black, as they come only in white)

[gleaming rose]

I actually just didn't read your message - I don't know if 2 security cameras is enough coverage for your whole home

[turbid lily]

It is, I only need one facing the front driveway and one for the backyard haha, there is no other access point into the house

[gleaming rose]

also and you may or may not need this it may be helpful to get a smart doorbell as well

other than that it's fine to me

[turbid lily]

Ah sadly not possible, we have one of those hand bells as doorbell 😅 my wife wont let me get smart one lol

[gleaming rose]

fair enough

[turbid lily]

you mentioned self-hosting? Ubiquiti is just plug and play no? Or do I need to still do all the selfhosting and stuff?

[gleaming rose]

oughta work fine

[gleaming rose]

ubiquiti is plug and play

I was thinking of a more diy solution as given my expertise that's what I would personally do

of course, since you're ok with going ubiquiti that is probably more integrated and significantly more convenient

[cedar vector]

yo guys

linear or tactile switches

[gleaming rose]

personal preference

[random junco]

whichever you think sounds better

[turbid lily]

I tried last year some diy solution with home assistant, and pi and some camera's but the process of getting it to show up on apple home plus debugging every other weekend or during updates, made me just give up and want it to plug and play haha

[gleaming rose]

fair enough

[random junco]

you dont have to be limited to apple home

[cedar vector]

i havent touched a mechanical keyboard in my life

[random junco]

sucks to suck

[cedar vector]

i don't know which one i should get

[cedar hollow]

even more reason to try different keebs

[turbid lily]

Cool, would I need the Access Point U7 Lite, or can I maybe get rid of it and still connect the camera's to wifi just fine? But that list I have then it should cover the setup? Would it allow me to add more camera's in the future if needed? or im limited to 2?

[cedar vector]

laptop membrane for life

[cedar hollow]

if you've never tried a mech keyboard before you gotta go out and try diff ones

[tropic mortar]

hello guys! I’ve installed an m.2 into my pc and it says its only 2 gb when its 1tb in windows

[random junco]

uh no

[cedar hollow]

gotta format it/resize partitions

[tropic mortar]

what could be the cause?

[random junco]

brand new?

[tropic mortar]

nope

[tropic mortar]

tried formayting it and it did nothing

[cedar vector]

isn't particularly fun but i feel like i can type faster on that due to low travel

[tropic mortar]

how would i resize the partitions?

[random junco]

you can configure actuation timings on keyboards

[cedar vector]

right click on this pc

and clikc manage

[cedar vector]

only works on expensive ones tho

[random junco]

huh no just open the app called disk management

[cedar vector]

and i ain't particularly rich

[random junco]

i have a £45 mechanical keyboard that can lmao

[tropic mortar]

can i send you an image of my disk manager just so u can see whats going on?

[cedar vector]

last time i resized i was using windows 8

[random junco]

u can send it here

[tropic mortar]

k

[cedar vector]

sorry

for outdated information

[cedar vector]

i am thingking of getting one

i just can't find one with function keys

[cedar vector]

at an acceptable price

[random junco]

search for 90% mechanical keyboard

[tropic mortar]

disk 1 is the one i installed, whenever i try initializing it it does nothing

[random junco]

whered u get the ssd from

[cedar vector]

(most american brands get like 90% import fees so they are outrageously expensive for what they are)

[green hollow]

I want new fans but can't for the life of me find matching 120 and 140 normal and reverse blade. Anyone know a brand that does this?

[tropic mortar]

it’s the one i’ve always had

i just swapped it to a new pc

with an existing ssd

[random junco]

most brands have matching reverse blade variants gng

[cedar vector]

i think i found one

[random junco]

right click the disk 1 and press delete volume

[tropic mortar]

theres no volume at all it’s unallocated

[cedar vector]

oh god

[tropic mortar]

initialize, offline, properties, help

[cedar vector]

can you send a screenshot@tropic mortar?

[random junco]

press initialize

[tropic mortar]

doesnt do anything

[random junco]

a popup should appear

[tropic mortar]

ik, when i click initialize on the pop up it does nothing and then closes

[random junco]

open command prompt and type diskpart

then list disk to see ur disks

should say the total size

[tropic mortar]

disk 0 : 935 gb (thats the m.2 i have windows on)
disk 1 : 2048 mb (the new one i’ve just installed)

[trim tusk]

guys anyone down to help me with gpu talk or to give me validation for the gpu im considering buying

[random junco]

select disk 1, clean
type those in

[random junco]

yeah sure

[tropic mortar]

done

[median heart]

How do i do that

[harsh falcon]

gotta use Ethernet cable

[grizzled frost]

you don’t, it will auto negotiate

Either you can get closer to your wifi AP, use ethernet, or get a new AP

[random junco]

now go to disk management and initialize

[tropic mortar]

still did nothing

[random junco]

what brand is the drive

[tropic mortar]

dunno

[random junco]

bro this some fake drive then 🥀

[tropic mortar]

nvm its innogrit

[trim tusk]

Im in iraq

i got 650,000iqd
100usd=140,000iqd

I got a 5600x and a 1440p 170hz va display that I sometimes upscale to 3200x1800

my mom wants to buy an eliptical cardio machine with me so I set aside 150,000iqd

with the rest of the money, do I buy a box new rtx5060 8gb asus prime tripple fan, or an msi shaddow one, or a 5050 (cheapest) or go the used route and get a 3070 although it might be jank

[tropic mortar]

i’ve had it for years, worked fine on my old pc

[random junco]

format it on the other pc

[tropic mortar]

i can’t

reason why its in a new pc is because the bcd on the drive is corrupted

so i can’t boot into windows

and windows repair doesnt recognize the drive so i can’t install it there

[random junco]

do not get a 5050
3070 is still an awesome card and the 5060 is good but limited by the vram

[tropic mortar]

i’m using my friends pc to format it

[random junco]

whats the prices for each card

[random junco]

oh

[trim tusk]

5060 asus is like 490,000iqd (30usd above us msrp)
5060 msi one is like 460,000-500,000
5050 box new is cheapest by far at like 380,000
3070 is like 500,000 for a used one

450 for a 3070 if its janky or ugly

[random junco]

why does the 3070 cost more than the 5060 lmao
anyways, the msi 5060 is the best option from the list

[trim tusk]

I bought an rx480 xfx blower for 70k not too long ago as a replacement for my old gtx1050 that I destroyed intentionnaly out of impulse. The 480 is used and the seller did not describe to me that its very loud and needed new thermal paste (i replaced the paste with mx4 but it still hits 90 during gaming cuz of the awful blower cooling type). im gonna spend a lot so im skeptical this time

[trim tusk]

the msi one is ugly which is why my gut feeling tells me to go with the asus prime one. I've got a list of local market websites if you'd like to have a look

[random junco]

i mean i wouldnt pay more for the same chipset just because it looks better (unless its being vertically mounted) because you cant really see the gpu

but your choice tbh theyre both the same

[trim tusk]

the 9060xt is 550,000iqd. I think I can also find the asus prime tripple fan for cheaper if I go looking through stores physically

[random junco]

how much vram on the 9060xt? if its 16, then for sure get that over the 5060

[trim tusk]

8gb

[tired bear]

dont get 8gig variant

[random junco]

oh. never mind

[trim tusk]

the sellers here overprice everything so most likely im gonna end up with an 8gb vram card

if I go used only god knows what type of cancerous gpus id end up with

there are only 2 places to look for used gpus where im at: fb marketplace and opensooq,so it might make it easier to get people online to give me their advice on whatever is listed but not everyone might do that

[random junco]

how much is a b570 or b580 for you

[trim tusk]

Iraqis dont buy those; the gpu market is treated as a monotone investment market rather than a market where enthusiasts get parts for their pcs.

also I'd never buy an intel gpu

infact the reason why nvidia is even on my mind is cause of the convinience of nvidia control panel and all the community made configuration software

[random junco]

theres also amd software btw

infact i have both apps on my laptop and i prefer the amd

[trim tusk]

ik, just not used to it as much as nvidia's, and I like the nvidia jank cuz of how unrefined it feels lol

[random junco]

refined

[brave brook]

i would. If it is cheap and for Linux boxes

[rigid fjord]

finally managed to get your drive working?

[random junco]

nope doesnt work

[tropic mortar]

nope, it’s being recognized in my friend’s pc but its only 2 gb and it can’t be initialized

i think the drive is broken

[trim tusk]

crude*

[rotund blade]

I have 3 case fans in the front currently, should I move one of them to the back top (exhaust) or would you say they are fine

[random junco]

do you already have an exhaust?

if there is already one there, then its fine

[rotund blade]

No

[random junco]

you dont have an exhaust fan? 😭

[random junco]

yeah move it

[rotund blade]

Ok thanks mate

[rigid fjord]

yeah, controller probably dead at this point,, sucks when it happens

[hidden nymph]

so much physical media

[sleek ibex]

Redbox

[rigid fjord]

so many fishing lures

[sleek ibex]

I remember when we still went to Blockbutser or equivalents when they still were around

[topaz shale]

i went to block buster as a kid

[sleek ibex]

Renting VHS tapes

[hidden nymph]

i got most it for free

since yk redbox shutdown

[sleek ibex]

Remember to rewind after watching it so you don't get an ear full from the rentals

[rigid fjord]

i remember when netflix did physical media

[hidden nymph]

SAME

i actually used to use it in 2020

[cedar vector]

so close

[sleek ibex]

Yep they even had those vending machines at some locations

[topaz shale]

i remember doing that in like 2009 a lot as a kid, i think they had physical media of the transformers animated show

[sleek ibex]

There's still a small handful that still have them

[rotund blade]

I moved it to the back and it seems that the cable that makes the fan spin can reach the rest of the daisy chain

[rigid fjord]

and now netflix is opening up some stores and calling them 'netflix house'

[rigid fjord]

the top fan can have the cable go through where the eps cables go through

[topaz shale]

what is the purpose of netflix house

[rotund blade]

Would that be through to the back of the case, or someplace on the motherboard you plug it in (this might sound dumb it’s my first time building)

[topaz shale]

oh thats strange

[rigid fjord]

eps cable there, can run it through the same hole that's got the eps cable in

[vast thorn]

hmm

[rotund blade]

I might have to get some sort of extension for the cable cause there isn’t anything back there to connect it to

[rigid fjord]

you can connect it to the cables that you're daisy chainging the fans with

also you have several fan headers on that mobo

[rotund blade]

Oh could I just connect it to the motherboard

[rigid fjord]

make sure the cpu cooler is specifically on the cpu fan header and all other fans are on any sys_fan/cha_fan header

[rotund blade]

The cpu cooler is on “CPU_FAN1”, from what I’m hearing I could connect the case fan to one of these on the side?

[spring latch]

my nearly 7 year old SSD is in basiclly perfect condition :)

[rigid fjord]

yup, can be connecting the other fans on the other headers

[midnight badger]

can someone help me im buying a prebuilt pc and can someone judging from the price and specs tell me if its worth or good?

[rotund blade]

Should be good then

Thanks dude

[azure topaz]

it will make no difference

[azure topaz]

whatever you think looks aesthetically better

[azure topaz]

mines a lil worse but its not a hhigh quality drive

an oem 980 pro, its got decent speeds but shit everything else

but this one on the other hand is great

[spring latch]

im suprised I have 98% because afaik PNY SSDs arent very well known for reliability anyways

[azure topaz]

just up to how much youve written

[rotund blade]

Yo thank you guys so much for helping me with this build

I couldn’t have done it without you guys

[spring latch]

my 1TB SATA PNY SSD failed 6 months after i bought it in 2024, i think i only formatted it like 3 times

[azure topaz]

then it was an otherwise defective drive

when theye not defective its just up to how much oyu write

and if youre doing a securre format on an ssd what da freak

[spring latch]

i only really overwrote it when installing an OS

[azure topaz]

broski youd have to have written hundreds of terabytes

[spring latch]

i never used it as a USB drive alternative (which I did for my 512GB CS900)

[azure topaz]

see my 980 at 30K gigabytes writtenh

[spring latch]

then the 1TB drive was obviously defective

[azure topaz]

yes

maybe not to QC or whatever but it had some other flaw

[drifting urchin]

what do you guys think about montech cases, newegg.ca has them for up to 50% off low as 60 bucks CAD for a ATX case.

[azure topaz]

not saying that the pny ssds are or arent reliable but you at least did have an defective one

[spring latch]

my 512GB CS900 shows a probably incorrect amount of hours, i did use it a LOT over USB to SATA, but regardless i know ive used it more than 239 days total time on

[azure topaz]

if you think it looks good, buy it, id avoid the ones with cheapo rgb fans included

[drifting urchin]

i was also looking at black version of 216r lianli but its double the price

[azure topaz]

its your computer we cant influence your opinion on aesthetics

whats that other lian li case? the V100?

[spring latch]

but its probably not much more or less, its possible the SSD has just been powered on for less time than i think but I did use that SSD a lot

239 days of total power on time just seems a bit low to me

[azure topaz]

https://www.amazon.com/Lian-Li-Mid-Tower-Pre-Installed-Optimized/dp/B0F2T66QC9

how much is this in canada?

its gonna be more than 60 cad but its a good case

[drifting urchin]

interesting case design

[azure topaz]

i think it looks prretty good

i think it supporrts those reverse connector boards, too

[bitter crater]

looks like it with all those cutouts

[azure topaz]

for 80$ thats not terrible

[bitter crater]

but where are the hdd bays?

[azure topaz]

probably in the basement

not bad

idk if my y40 even supports any hdds lowk

[empty quartz]

@azure topaz after new laptop. What gpu should i upgrade to? I was thinking 3090 for the main, and 3090ti for the workstation, but idk.

[bitter crater]

ah not for me, i got 2 x 3,5''

[azure topaz]

theres no situation rn where buying a 3090 for gaming* is financially smart

[empty quartz]

Amd almost fucked me over already

[azure topaz]

paying 600-800$ for a 3090, just buy a 5070ti

[empty quartz]

What about for the workstation though?

[azure topaz]

16 gigabytes isnt enough? 😭

3090ti is also even dumber, doesnt that have the same amount of vram as a 3090?

theyre cool cards but thats wasting serious money on a card with a 9 in the name

[rigid fjord]

yup. totally fine

[azure topaz]

yeah theres no way to justify this unless you exclusively do ai work

work as in you get paid for it

[azure topaz]

i dont use HDDS anymore

heres a fully completed one: looks good

[grizzled frost]

HDDs in desktops are dead

[bitter crater]

looks really nice

[grizzled frost]

NAS or not at all

[azure topaz]

nas or nah

[drifting urchin]

that is pretty dream looking pc build

[azure topaz]

yeah i mean it looks great

cant be mad at 80$ case looking good

[bitter crater]

my homemade NAS is too slow for use outside of movies/series/backups

[azure topaz]

raid?

[grizzled frost]

then upgrade it

also what else do you want it to do

[azure topaz]

2.5gbit+a proper raid setup

[grizzled frost]

media/backups is like 90% of what NASes are used for

[bitter crater]

yeah i use the hdd in pc to store stuff i use for funstuff that doesnt really need ssd, getting a nas for that is just a waste of money. my rpi nas (with just a external hdd as its storage) is plenty for the media/backups

[kindred halo]

512GB PCIe 4x4 NVMe turned into an external SSD ftw ✨

[jovial swan]

hello, if i was to upgrade my GPU, what GPU´s would be upgrades and which should i stay away from
current specs
Ryzen 7 7700
GigaByte 2-fan RTX 4070 (just 4070)
32 GB DDR5 (planning to upgrade to 64)
1 TB SSD (planning on adding another)
650 watt PSU.

keep in mind the case i use is this and i havbe a 240 mm watercooler that makes it very difficult to fit in any BIG cards

[grizzled frost]

anything with more performance than a 4070

[kindred halo]

What's your case, and what's your budget

[jovial swan]

thing is i am not sure what is a sidegrade/downgrade.
would the 5060 TI be worthy?

[bitter crater]

not much of an upgrade i think

[kindred halo]

Not at all

[jovial swan]

azza case, thats all i know about the case. i am from denmark so prices are a bit different

[kindred halo]

Sidegrade

[jovial swan]

but around 900 euros is my budget

[grizzled frost]

great idea to look at performance graphs yourself and make your own decision

[grizzled frost]

keep your 4070

[jovial swan]

aight.

[kindred halo]

Yeah just keep your GPU

It's good enough

[jovial swan]

alr. imma invest in a new monitor and more ram and a SSD instead then

[kindred halo]

Not much use in upgrading

[bitter crater]

thats a better use for your money yeah

[kindred halo]

What're you going to use the RAM for?

32GB is plenty for most applications

[pale flint]

"invest"

[jovial swan]

modded minecraft. and modded hearts of iron IV.

[kindred halo]

Ah.

[jovial swan]

theres a mod on hearts of iron IV that can take up to beyond 32 gb ram.

[kindred halo]

Sounds about right

[pale flint]

definetly not an investment

[jovial swan]

sorry it is my way of saying stuff.

[high elm]

you invest $$$ into something that gives you joy and happiness through its ability to let you play games better

[bitter crater]

i tried betterXCloud and normal XCloud... holy shit what a difference. betterXCloud is sooooooo much better, higher quality, better connection and only 7ms inputlag (regular xcloud is like 720p and >100ms inputlag)

microsoft really needs to get off their ass and improve xcloud if a thirdparty can improve it so much

[long cradle]

Just gave this a clean.

[midnight badger]

is this good? for prebuilt? Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 10 R7-7700X/16/1TB/5070

[azure topaz]

polaris?

[rigid fjord]

tbh, the lf2 240 easily can be moved to deal with longer gpu's, and if you want to upgrade it would be a 5070 / 9070xt or better if you want to upgrade

[bitter crater]

the 16 is ram? a little low side for am5

[azure topaz]

prebuilt moment

how much money do you have for a prebuilt and where do you live @midnight badger

country

inb4 "i already bought it"

[midnight badger]

i live in Sweden and the budget is 20 000kr (Swedish Kronor)

[long cradle]

Just put it back in my PC.

[azure topaz]

is it a 580?

[rigid fjord]

nitro+ you should look at the optional extras you can get for them, especially the shroud swaps

[long cradle]

Yeah.

[azure topaz]

nice

[jovial swan]

copy.

[long cradle]

I don't see the point.

[azure topaz]

okay give me a little bit, idk swedish sites too well so i'll have to poke around

[long cradle]

I don't like the RGB stuff.

[midnight badger]

yea i will recommend Elgiganten.se

[rigid fjord]

there's a red + blue one that's optional extras including some fans you could get for it

[high elm]

rx580’s are like $40 nowadays

[rigid fjord]

@long cradle

[drifting urchin]

are you kidding me,

[rigid fjord]

you should see the cube and pyramid ones

[long cradle]

My system awakening!

[drifting urchin]

the pyramid one i have known about, ever since i saw it in the 90s and 2000s pc gaming magazines

the ones that came with a demo dvd

but the longer im on the internet, the more stupid crap i see

[rigid fjord]

@drifting urchin when you mod it

[rain lily]

so ig my 120v brick died but the 12v works fine

[bleak ledge]

😑

[drifting urchin]

i have had this case for many years now

but its a pain in the ass

[long cradle]

Kinda pointless if there's no glass panel to see it.

[drifting urchin]

surprised the glass never smashed yet after like 5 years

[rigid fjord]

waiting for this to suddenly come alive

[drifting urchin]

looks like a computer design on portal turret

[rigid fjord]

bitfenix portal, it is essentially

[drifting urchin]

well shit, i didnt know i guess

[rigid fjord]

@drifting urchin

[drifting urchin]

this ones my favorite as a meme, nuclear bomb looking thing

easy way to get your self in a heap of trouble

[bitter crater]

ah yes, perfect for when you need to take the pc on a plane

[long cradle]

Would you actually get that??

[rigid fjord]

nope

[long cradle]

Well me neither.
I'm happy with the way my PC looks now.

[rain lily]

anyone know a good place to get a high quality playstation av out to rgbs cable? optimally terminated in bnc with audio outputs? i see a $17 one on amazon but am willing to spend a little more when it comes to nice analog video cables as I’ve seen noticeable differences in video quality before

[rigid fjord]

i'm happy with my case also

[long cradle]

Do ya like mine?

[rigid fjord]

it's a classic 2010 design

[long cradle]

I built my PC last year.
I wanted a case that could support auxiliary storage devices.

For both disc and diskette.

[rocky warren]

What would yall say is the best gaming laptop sub $1800

[fringe prairie]

legion pro 5i w/ 5070ti

though

if you don't need a gaming laptop don't get one

i'd rather you get a gaming pc + cheap laptop

[azure topaz]

@midnight badger i cant find too much

this seems good but idk if its real

this handful of rigs as well, although im not sure the translation of prices to call them good deals or not

[small breach]

i9 9900k with rtx 2080 ti is that good for warzone?

[kindred halo]

Yes

Minimum specs according to Activision are an i5-6600, and a GTX 960

[small breach]

what fps will you get

on low 1080p

[azure topaz]

enough

why does it matter

[ionic peak]

Pc 👍

[ivory mountain]

i always forget how fucking stupid this take is

[ionic peak]

Try playing bl4 on a gtx 1030

[grizzled frost]

It’s largely true for modern cards

[ionic peak]

Like this

[ionic peak]

Ye why so expensive

[grizzled frost]

take any card from the past 2 generations and halve its price, it would immediately become massively popular

amd, nvidia, intel, doesn’t matter

[azure topaz]

idk man im not paying any money for an rtx 5050

[ivory mountain]

they would have to pay me to take a 5050

[ionic peak]

Ye Nvidia seller still think that s 3080 is 600 worth

[grizzled frost]

Nothing inherently wrong with the 5050, just its positioning and price

If it cost 200usd it would be a great card

DLSS4, low power draw, and modern driver support

[ionic peak]

So much is my entire setup

[random gyro]

Low storage

[brave brook]

got one in the 2950x rig

[grizzled frost]

secondhand market gets weird

[brave brook]

for 500-600 euros you get a 3090

[ionic peak]

Yes it will go on with ddr5 ram

[ionic peak]

In my country it is min 800

Oh nice there is no 3090 for sale atm

[distant frigate]

Bruh I almost collapsed after exercising. Seriously hope it’s vasovagal syncope

Felt extremely lightheaded

[steel umbra]

found one tuf 3090 locally for 550 and pny for 500, though on ebay with buyer protections they go for around 700+

[random gyro]

US dollar >

[distant frigate]

Vasovagal syncope can apparently happen after exercise and not during it

[steel umbra]

acwually the euro coin is strnger than usd now 🤓

[brave brook]

AI farms

[ionic peak]

Ye by me its min 800 to 1200

[hidden anvil]

what is a better buy a 6950xt for 410$ or a 3090 for 450$?

[steel umbra]

depends on your use case

6950xt has better raster without rt

[hidden anvil]

benchmarks say 3090 is better for raytracing but for raw 6950xt is better

[fringe prairie]

?

[hidden anvil]

yep i will probably use rt from time to time but i js want smth thats better overall

[azure topaz]

put an ssd in it

[steel umbra]

if you want to do anything else than gaming, like rendering get the 3090

[ionic peak]

Ye rtx 3090 for 800 min

[hidden anvil]

30 series is still game ready

[steel umbra]

already?

[hidden anvil]

i dont do rendering stuff

[hidden anvil]

in what world is a 3090 worth 800

[hidden anvil]

yep amd being amd

[steel umbra]

6950xt was launched over three years ago only

[fringe prairie]

3090 gets dlss4 as well which is quite nice

[brave brook]

dude, it was backtracked like 2-3 days ago. How slow are news going in your place ?

[ionic peak]

Ask German people

https://www.techpowerup.com/342481/amd-clarifies-maintenance-mode-for-radeon-rx-5000-6000-series-first-day-game-support-remains

[hidden anvil]

oh oopa

[random gyro]

You not 12 spell it right lmao

[brave brook]

New features, bug fixes and game optimizations will continue to be delivered as required by market needs in the maintenance mode branch.

[normal tusk]

bout the same length of time as rx 400/500 had for that

[random gyro]

That’s what I did

[random gyro]

Sup solo

[hidden anvil]

but its not a priority anymore or smth

waiting 1 extra day for drivers

[steel umbra]

news to me tbh, even if it's not that major, it's surprising amd is toning down driver updates for 6000 series

[hidden anvil]

ill js go for the 3090

it'll prolly be more easy to resell when i wanna upgrade one day

and 8gb more vram, useless but i like big numbers

[hidden anvil]

https://youtu.be/KsjjFr9mB7w?si=QCvYbIpZl0q78rXe

[ionic peak]

How much for you.

[hidden anvil]

450$

[ionic peak]

Where?

[brave brook]

plus neither of the manufacturers really did that great optimizations for older architectures. Most of the simple driver gains were usually done in first years, for platforms as old as 5000/6000 series it is more about bugfixes for games, which they will get

[hidden anvil]

lebanon

[rotund blade]

I have the windows 11 setup on a flash drive and I’m pretty sure I need to get the drivers or something on there too

[hidden anvil]

cuz lebanese market doesnt know what ai is so the prices wont skyrocket

[rotund blade]

Not even sure what question to ask about the drivers cause I’m so confused

Would they be included with windows? (

[supple niche]

me typing this comment on my pc with a 6750xt

well amd, i see how it is dropping support for this card i got 2 years ago

i guess ill buy your new card now

ill even buy the lube too

[hidden anvil]

i dont think it will affect performance too much right away but the issue is resell value

its value will drop hard

[random junco]

perfect

[brave brook]

it's not dropping support dude. They are doing game optimizations for those cards depending on how important the game is.

[hidden anvil]

(its already 200$ here)

[random junco]

beautiful news

[hidden anvil]

indeed

[supple niche]

too late, im currently being hacked

[brave brook]

just because they don't do optimization for every game is not "dropping support"

[random junco]

the 6750xt?

[supple niche]

ngl 200$ aint bad for a new 6750xt

[hidden anvil]

still they have no right to do that for such new cards

[supple niche]

where's that?

[hidden anvil]

atleast keep fully optimizing the 6050 series

[steel umbra]

it's also a worrying sign they could soon also drop the fixes, like not that soon but... still bad feeling

[random junco]

where the hell is this

[hidden anvil]

yep

[supple niche]

thats my question yes

[hidden anvil]

facebook marketplace lebanon

atp ima buy gpus here and sell them in europe for profit

[random junco]

in the UK the cheapest is equivalent to 287 usd

[hidden anvil]

u can get a 6800 with that here

theyre also cheap cuz new card prices are horrendous

5070 is 800$ here cuz of the beautiful tarrifs and sanctions

[waxen shell]

Trve?

Source??

[supple niche]

theyre not optimizing games for it anymore basically

source: any tech youtube channel rn i guess

[waxen shell]

That’s the game devs job

[hidden anvil]

except they all depend on framegen doing the job nowadays

[random junco]

thats not really optimization

[hidden anvil]

ik its js them being lazy

especially vram optimization stuff

[random junco]

8gb is slowly becoming not enough anyways

[hidden anvil]

nvidia is still releasing 5070 with 8gb vram on laptops 💔

[crude osprey]

Is it more worth it to buy a 15" MacBook Air or 15" Surface Laptop?

[random junco]

thats fine for a laptop gng

[hidden anvil]

not really

[random junco]

what u using it for

[hidden anvil]

most 5070 laptops are 1600p resolution

[supple niche]

im just saying if ltt wants to fly me out and do a video where i build a gaming pc and i get a cool new woled monitor and go home so i can play games that even a 10 year old rig could run then

[crude osprey]

College.

[supple niche]

im down

[hidden anvil]

they should atleast put 10gb

even the 5050 has 8 in laptops

absurd that u gotta pay 1800$+ to get a 5070ti laptop with 12gb

[fringe prairie]

where?

[hidden anvil]

lebanon

[fringe prairie]

macbook air

the surface laptops are pretty shit since WoA sucks

i'd also consider the 15" yoga slim 7i ae

[hidden anvil]

honor magicbook art 14 is nice too

[fringe prairie]

yes if available

[hidden anvil]

it doesnt exist here

[brave brook]

RX580 was launched in mid-2017, maintenance mode was in Nov 2023 (6 years). RX6000 series is 4 year old, and they aren't even moving it to maintenance mode, just not full 'every game optimization' mode. People are acting as if they can gain lot of performance from driver game optimizations this late in product lifecycle

[long cradle]

Anyone know anything about this GPU??

Looks cool af

[hidden anvil]

we value the 1% performance gains

anything is better than this tho 😭

[brave brook]

i mean, while the 1080 Ti did get drivers up until this month, you can bet there were next to no optimizations happening for it for 4-5 years

[hidden anvil]

1080ti is too glorious to require drivers

[brave brook]

also if you dislike your AMD cards due drivers not having optimization for every new game, just sell them to the nearest linux bros 😄

Linux bros love AMD cards

[hidden anvil]

the rx 6950xt on facebook has been listed for a year 💔

i dont think it'll be fun to resell

[brave brook]

maybe you are asking too much

[hidden anvil]

no not me i mean the seller

hes asking 400

[brave brook]

for 440 euros here we can get 7900 GRE, or 3080 Ti

or for 330-350 euros a 3080

[hidden anvil]

oh also can my pc power supply handle a 3090

• Core i9 14900k
• Liquid freezer III 280mm liquid cooler
• 64GB ram 6000 MHz Kingston Fury Beast
• MSI Z790 MAG Edge TI Max Wifi
• 1 TB XPG S70 blade gen 4 NVME
• DeepCool 850w Gold
• DeepCool CH560 digital case

[empty quartz]

No

[hidden anvil]

the i9 alone can easily pull 250 watts under load

[brave brook]

3000 series was mostly an issue with power spikes

[hidden anvil]

3080ti is abt 350 ish here

[empty quartz]

3090’s transients alone can trip ocp

[hidden anvil]

yeah 6950xt consumes like 100 watts less

[empty quartz]

@hidden anvil If you want a 3090, you’re going to need at least 1kw

@hidden anvil The 6950xt actually pulls more in terms of transient spikes

[hidden anvil]

my solar panel battery wont like this

[empty quartz]

Then why do you have a 14900k

[hidden anvil]

but if u undervolt it, which performs better

[hidden anvil]

idk i got the pc for a good price

other pcs with an i7 and 32gb ram were the same price

[empty quartz]

@brave brook got this 3m 20gbit cable for $10 cad after tax

[empty heron]

Real stuff anyone has/ knows someone running Jginyue board? Im looking for the most feature proof matx board and they offer a b650e one thats pretty cool with great price

[azure topaz]

is it verified to do high speeds or just claim

[azure topaz]

why are you considering one of these boards first question

[boreal vine]

So cute ❤️

[empty quartz]

I verified it with my nvme enclosure

[azure topaz]

coolskis

[boreal vine]

I might want to get it

[empty quartz]

I eated

[boreal vine]

if i get it, it would match my keyboard

[ionic peak]

I ate it ( or gona eat it )

[ionic peak]

on my side nearly nothing match

[empty heron]

Basically matx b650e wifi board for 120£, the other option that i found was gigabyte x870m but thats double the price
