i was joking unc
gng why isnt my usb stick letting me format it i cleared read only from diskpart
it still wont let me!!! it says its read only
Man I want free PCBs too
Who ghost pinged me!
Damn son. You took out one of his eyes and he still wants to work with you
??
wdym
If you caught his eye, it’s not in its socket anymore
oh
Took it straight from his head my man
You’re a dad huh?
happens to me all the time just unplug it and plug it back in
Also I need those fishing skills
still doesnt work
Skill issue
how is this supposed to help me
pretty sure that rufus or balena etcher or whatever will clean it themselves
holy dad joke
not a bad thing to me just sayin
I used balena etcher and got ubuntu on the stick but i realised i gotta transfer files first so i want to make it back to normal stick
Why ubuntu?
Cuz its my favorite
Ew
Their DE is nice, they have a big community and support and also its the most stable imo
Dad jokes become my thing as I got less time to game with the 3 kids
Fun thing is one of my kids shows many autistic traits but for some reason his preschool still think he isn’t autistic. Which gave me the ultimate dad joke for my wife the other day.
g-g-gnome?
gnome is nice wdym
atleast the ubuntu gnome... the one on fedora is kinda stinky
I just turned to her and said “I got a buddy that can play RuneScape with me now” and she just lol’d. That’s when you’ve made it
why is ram so expensive now?
Here's my build budget is $700 and the only thing I couldn't find it a good or decent price is a ram but aside from that how good is my build?
really? i see ddr4 ram is cheap
atleast in my country
Idk I’d never buy a 5500
Your cpu cooler will come with thermal paste
That boot m.2 will die in a year
its the same gnome just with different settings yk
Gaming on a cpu with 16mb l3 cache is a nope for me
Where are you finding ram that's cheap? Ddr4?
guys can i buy used ram sticks??
I mean fuck man that list is bad
it'd be good for compiling the linux kernel tho
5050, 1tb sata drive, 256gb nvme, 5500. It’s all kinds of compromises of the lowest order
Even Linux would boot up and say “ew 5050”
yeah you're right
your build only supports ddr4
I know that already but when I'm asking is where you finding cheap ram in the ddr4 lineup?
That’s just because Nvidia is ass on Linux lol
everywhere
When windows boots up a 5050 I’m pretty sure it says “I’d have preferred a 1080ti”
So I'm getting some mixed results is there anything that's changed or make better?
It all depends what your budget is
instead of a 5050 can u find a radeon card for a similar price
OMG I got Lego Star Wars the Complete Saga working!!!!
and if yes tell me which
700
But a used am4 system generally gets you better than what you got
do u guys think it supports ray tracing
700 is low af of a budget even before the ram issues
buy ddr5 sticks
dih
A 3600 and 6800xt used build is cheaper and better tbfh
in 3 months youll have 7000 dollars worth of em
I don't think my motherboard supports ddr5?
Look this is my first Bill I'm trying to make sure I do everything right! 😅
PLEASE HELP
it keeps saying its read only even tho i disabled read only with diskpart
Then can you point me in some kind of right direction! 😅???
I like this one
I think the discord has an intro thing that tells you where to go and what for when you first join . I forget.
gurt what support channel
Well… it’s kind of self explanatory #1027757333117415424
Also try to translate to English. French is probably not spoken much in here. Nor can I be bothered to dig into a language I haven’t spoke for 20 years or so
i definitely made it myself and didn't just steal it
In fact it’s not even French, I just saw implicit and thought it was lol
its not french its ROMANIAN🇷🇴 🇷🇴
Which means it’s less likely to be spoken
and also what am i supposed to do its what my os is in
i explained everything in text
Translate the error message for people in your thread
ok i did it
bad

a ton to be done to make that better for a $700 build
I figured out how to ignore youtube ads
Mute the add. Then go take a shower, and just maybe the ad might be done 🤣
low but not to low sadly

or just use an adblock

YouTube gives warning for it

no that's down
never got one with ublock origin

On which browser?
firefox
skill issue i guess ¯_(ツ)_/¯
ram in 2025:
that's a bargain for the reference card version of it that you bought
crazy how 3 days after i said this shit one of the ramsticks necked itself
@lethal bay these Kailh GM 4.0 reds are nice - feel way better than whatever was in this mouse
I say this to myself atleast 5 times a day
Omrons suck bro
99% of people with that attitude don’t realise how they rely on Microsoft and windows or that the rest of the world does.
when do y'all think the ai bubble will pop
When online gamers say that it’s pretty funny more so because 99% of them again - need windows to play all their games.
Everything has its place
do you know whats in the superlight 2s?
Omrons probably
hmm
is a 7900x and a 7900xt a perfect combo?
you better have a good display or I’ll have an aneurysm
planning to go 1440p, upgrading from a 3700x and 6750xt
pretty much maxxed out 1080 so id like that resoloution bump and maybe an oled
i cant, buying the pc used with a 2060s, swapping it out for a 7900xt
doesn't get more perfect
5nail stop
(just kidding, the 7900xt is not the best buy right now)
i mean, in the used market its a great £450 gpu
better than the 3080tis or 3090s if id get lucky around that price
gonna swap this into my lian li a3 and put in the 7900xt whichll make for a good looking pc imo
(the board is matx)
yeah and with a 2060 super
the guy whos selling it for 400gbp probs doesnt know what he has
A3 my goat
bought one when i junked my fx4300 and gtx 760 pc and cant be happier
Probably my favorite case I’ve owned.
yeah the support is genuinely amazing for this case
@thorny saddle buy a B850Mpower
nah
wait what the fuck, the guys using a 1680x1050 monitor
that is a weird aspect ratio
and a 4gb 2060 super?
22" monitor
it has to be running at the wrong speed or something
Do I take a chance on this being a DDR4 machine worth parting out?
that's not maxed out for 1080p, and the 6750xt is also great for 1140p
does anyone know how to fix flickering on an old ips monitor? i have hp 22es and only disabling nvidia service seem to be work but ig that's important and i have tried disabling mpo but it only works temporarily
i mean for the games i play and the stuff i model
and if you want to avoid ddr5 pricing for what it is currently, you could get yourself a 5700/5700x3d instead
id rather jump to the new platform, and with the price the pc is at its a no brainer
id probably use the 2060 super sometime for a cheap 300gbp pc ill sell down the line
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WuI7bEO0Mk i neeeeeeeeeeeed those cable extensions were can i get these
This build is based on a configuration I reviewed a while ago, which I recently completed.
Personally, I’ve always liked Noctua fans and have used them for a long time in my workstation cooling setups.
After the release of the Noctua NH-D15 G2 and NF-A14x25 G2, I went with the Antec Flux case, which features a striking wooden front panel.
W...
oh that is hot
cablemod
you do realise a 32gb kit is now £250+, and a 64gb kit is going to be £500+ right?
yay
custom cable mod set specific to the psu they used
does anyone know how to use software to use rgb fans? they dont show up on signal rgb and my case cas argb hub that i connected to the motherboard
Time for RMA, my trident royal is actually dead, crazy timing given the ram prices
you do realise it is a built pc, for 400gbp, with a 7900x, 32gb ram, a motherboard, a cpu cooler, a power supply and even a gpu
so i cant get those
7900x alone is £350 so i don't see how you can get that whole pc for £400
guy has no clue what he has
https://www.etsy.com/de-en/listing/882416441/customized-noctua-theme-paracord? think i found them
its some russian guy and it was originally 600gbp, if its a scam then ill find out soon enough, if its not ill have a big profit on my hands
that be an extension you could get, but the cable quality i question due to the seller
oh okay
btw do yoou have any good aio that i can use with the noctua fans
several, and a couple with fans that out perform noctua

the ones that out perform noctua also doesn't look like the results of taco tuesday unlike noctua

is like discord unaware if this shi

like there is no source on this shi and i know so many people affected by it
Not sure they 100% care about much but their shareholders and selling nitro these days
Um ok
is performance on linux worse
on cs2 im running the native versiion i get about 200-260 fps while on windows i was getting 300-360
Arguably performance is better bc theirs less overhead compared to windows bloat
But it's also less optimised if at all
Depends on the game and configuration. DXVK translation layer itself has some overhead, that said CS2 is native on linux iirc

If you've used next.js probably update it. No idea who that is but I mean it's a real CVE so
Critical CVE, "10" so I'm assuming it's a community manager for next.js. supposed to patch a remote code execution vulnerability I'm assuming
All profiles leading to the name have a bunch of emoji in the descriptors though.
This summer Microsoft released KB5063878 update that causes major data loss and problems with SSD outages
It's almost half a year passed since then. Did they fixed it?
Is it rated on 10/10
Believe so yea
10 being potentially most dangerous. Only facebook has labelled it though it looks like?
Is this speed decent for mobile data
Decent is a understatement

Indonesian bot gone rogue?
Probably lol

Let me know what you think of my pc build:https://se.pcpartpicker.com/list/zbCk4p
Part List - AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, Lian Li Lancool 207 ATX Mid Tower
The cpu cooler is a little overkill
<@&750150305383186585> rule #10, possible rule #5 also
It’s a fun one
You guys fw the ps5
yep im selling it for double now
How much could I sell a 6900xt for?
This makes me want to invest €500,000 into TSMC and Asahi Kasei!!! 

At least 1 dollar
Should I just trade my amd pc
I’m ngl amd genuinely blows like ever since I changed
how did my pc get more expensive and my performance got worse
6900xt just didnt age very well
nyehehe, nuclear power is soon to be active 
One of the final acquisitions for the retro project 
Nuh uh, I banned nuclear in your world
Can yall tell me if this is a good trade for me
This for a 6900xt Ryzen 5 5600x ?
I really really really dislike amd
Well not good, but fair
That's a downgrade
how bad?
By quite a lot
I’m ngl like I can’t even get 240 fps in Fortnite 😭
You should be able to hit the desired frames
Run 3DMark TimeSpy and send result link
It's definitely not an AMD problem
1 sec
You’d need fsr on with high settings to hit 240 Fortnite with that card
Comp settings should be pissing it
how bad could slow ram affect a pc?
thats like the only thing Ik that isnt good
If you have EXPO on you are good
fortnite sucks so bad performance wise now
Looks fine
is the 6900xt pc yours or which way
just asking to be sure
It's theirs
oh ok i didnt understand it wrong
well yeah they want to trade for a reason
every part is slower on theirs
It would be a massive downgrade from the current pc
You’ve got it plugged in the gpu and not igpu right
steelseries kb at some point put my actuation 0.8mm higher nice
5600x doesnt have an igpu
illdo the other 1 sec
I can’t even get 240fps in Roblox ngl
Damn it I got pushed from 9th to 15th place on Steel Nomad
Good thing it's winter so I can do good runs again
this one is both right?
Everything looks fine except this
But it should be important
You are probably just running the games at too high settings or something
wdym?
shouldI just upgrade my cpu?
400-500 on average
this makes me want to invest in 2x4's made of iroko
With a budget of $1800 CAD, should I go $1300 PC $500 Monitors, or do more PC less on monitors
definitely loosing some performance here due to the ram
Is that same system leaderboard or specific part leaderboard?
same system
does radeon super resolution and amd fluid motion frames give input delay?
Yes
Yeah a bit less impressive then
I hold 1st spot on all benchmarks I ran on my PC on same CPU and GPU leaderboard
I'm going for GPU only score leaderboards
Shut it nerd 😛
which one gives input lag? both of just fluid motion frames?
Both
Rip to the people who didnt already have ram 🥀

so the only way to get more fps is to deal with input lag 💔
Overclock
Bros tryna do competitive overclocking
I think I just downgrade to be on intel ngl
Wdym
im like 90% sure my performance would be better on the games I play
I was gonna trade my ryzen 5 5600x and 6900xt for a 3070ti and a i7 10700k
Why
I became a loonixtard 😔
I hate amd
Im using ubuntu
You gonna get worse peformance overall
I need to begin converting my friends to ubuntu too
I cant even get 240 fps in fortnite or r6 , thats all I play
Brother...
you'd be going backwards here in performance
Thats a stupid reason to downgrade
you are crazy why are you hating amd
3rd on timespy and 5th on firestrike 😉
I cant play fortnite since im on linux so good for me 🤑🤑
Former friends if you're gonna do that 🥀
i mean one of them considered it in the past but got lazy
Consider the following:
Or
Im gonna save them from micropoop
my 1080ti build had more fps

linux is good my friend, i dont like the technical aspect of it like some people but its really nice
My entire steam library works on loonix
Im not even talking about linux lol, im just joking around
I actively use linux
i have doubts on this
Really what distro
IT actually did on fortnite, and similar fps on r6
Dudes past trippin, he dont fell down
Truenas and Ubuntu
what settings were you running before and what are you running now? Also why 240fps... fps isnt that important in fartnite anyway
200fps on any game is fine
a steady 240 makes the game way smoother
I play all low settings on both
On my 5700x and 7800xt, on fortnite with max settings and ray tracing i got 100fps
My moniter does this but fixes itself when it turn it off and on again should I be concerned
Is my streamdeck+ fucked, it only flashes when it’s on screensaver.
Well you are clearly doing something wrong. Did you uninstall the old drivers?
the thing is, he's running 2933 mt/s ram, thats killing a good chunk of performance with the 5600/5600x
Oh 😭
Unc cheaped out on the ram and thinks its amd's fault
Dudes getting cpu limited
I didnt build the pc ngl
Who did then
Very very nice
500$ marketplace pc
idk I bought the pc for 600 dollars
no that's you
but just the gpu and cpu itself more than that
Buy better ram and put it in your current system
I got all new drivers installed rn
Id be happy with a 6900xt for a $500 pc
Ddr4 ram is cheap
3080 peformance
where? I can go to bestbuy rn
Like hell it is
get hwinfo and send a pic of the summary page here
Okay
ye got 16gb for 40
where i live it is still cheap
Wherever just make sure its minimum 3200mhz
nice
it used to be, a 16gb kit of ddr4 3200 cl16 is $80
It will go higher with xmp
and ddr5 is nearly triple
In the big scheme of things its cheap
it should be $40 at best for a 16gb kit
facebook marketplace
yeah, your ram is your issue tbh
what ram should I buy
a decent kit of 3200 cl16 ddr4
downloading more ram is the best adivce rn
(joke)
hmm i use a literal turd instead of ram but my cpu just so happens to be amd... its all amd's fault 🤬🤬🤬🤬
why is ram so expensive now yo
AI
AI
ram shortage
well , I have akit of 3600 in my closet
but it was also connected to my pc that I shorted.
Should I take that risk or what
Unc really shorted his pc
No !!!!
Damn yeah you are right
I had GPU only score checked
My CPU score sucks absolute ass
you could try and see if they work, you will need to go into bios and enable xmp for them
if the ram is shorted, will it destroy my entire pc?
short like linus?
still fantastic lol I'm just playing, mine's only first cause no one really runs with a threadripper lol
nope, the pc won't turn on/ it'll throw up an error
Ever since i switched to ubuntu (today) im getting less fps i think cuz on windows, cs2 ran at 350ish fps now on ubuntu it runs at 250ish
Is ts normal
Cs2 has native linux port btw
Counter strike 2
I think I threw away the ram ngl
@random gyro the ram in my setup has a mild OC on them, so instead of being 3200 cl16, they're 3600 cl16
is frequent 100% disk usage and slow boots sign of a dead ssd? Or is there a way to test
Dude fuck you im personally ofended... you dont just throw out electronics
you do if they're majorly fucked
my entire pc shorted so I didnt know if anything could be used
Just because you’re offended doesn’t make something offensive.
some of it could have been
Well doesn't change the fact my CPU score really does suck lol
That's why I'm only going for GPU leaderboards
It's just impossible for me to compete with my CPU as well since I have a B series motherboard and single channel memory (I did OC it to 7200MT/s tho
)
recycle
Oh Christ he’s gone all Greta on us
if you dont they will end up in a landfill and kill the earth
Oh lord he’s gone mega Greta
ahh yeah, mines impossible to compete in cpu cause it's single core is meh
no but its stupid you take your planet for granted
Theres 1 earth and its this one!!
That’s not taking the planet for granted
If you truly believe that you wouldn’t want the rare earths dug up in the first place
how big is linus?
personally i can strip down some of my electronics and use the components of them
imagine how many little kids were slaved just for your batteries
barely a table high
He’s as short as me iirc. 5ft7
only for you to throw them away
hah, shortass
Honestly? If I cared I wouldn’t be a consumer. So I don’t care about the geopolitics of manufacturing my products. Don’t be a Greta.
how much in cm?
It’s complicated and also mildly insulting to those you seek to protect to break it down that simply. So it’s better to not care or you’ll just be a bitter depressed
so 120cm?
About 172
same as me 😭
tiny
Wait til you meet a dwarf with your 4 year old son and he’s the same height and says “whys a kid working here” 
I think ima try to trade someone before i buy ram lowkey
That’s short
The only reason child labour still exists in africa is because all of those governments were busy doing coups or having civil wars instead or fixing their problems
so it made it like old cs again
Bright mode ftw
because it simulates the sunlight from outdoors that they don't receive enough
so why'd you say same 😱
bc short
Is ts good ram?
Yes
depends how much you're paying for it
minus micro scolioses should be 179cm
nope
I can get it for free
then hell yeah
wait you're not stealing it right.
No
the chances of it being unstable is high tbh
I know a guy who knows a guy
What’s the best of the best ddr4 rams I should try to get
Kingston fury ones
I have 3200mhz in my pc i think but they run at 3600+mhz with xmp is ts normal
cheap but just works = silicon power
how so? that was the same as my first set of ram and as a beginner who had no idea on what to choose over something else (I only chose it because it looked good) and it served me no problems
only downsides of corsair most of the time is price
and rgb
What else?
minus their pricing on the vengeances but due to the amount of ram dies they uses, you have to really check the revision number to find a good one, and even then it's not guaranteed to run at the advertised xmp profile
Corsair ones i think
But corsair has higher dookie rate
When buying used 13th/14th gen cpus what benchmarks would prove a lack of degration?
silicon power, kingston/hyperx fury, teamgroup, klevv, geil, lexar
Do you mean degredation
Degration isnt a word bud
word*

maybe i meant work how do u know
because the word didn't work
the work didnt word
no minions here
says the ai
that'll definitely work
I get it for free so idrc
I’ll prolly get better ones for free soon
@formal sonnet you laugh because it's what you want to say but aren't allowed to say, due to work
What cpu could I upgrade to from a ryzen 5 5600x, my motherboard is a asrock x370 killer SLI/ac
as long as the bios is up to date, you could put in a 5800x3d
I laugh because 🎶 I've no more fucks to give, my fucks have runneth dry, I've tried to go fuck shopping but there's no fucks left to buy! 🎶
Absolutely love that little comedy song video.
good ol' tom there
Getttijg this rn for free btw
technically better a kit but if this is 3600 cl18, it's the same performance as a 3200 cl16 kit would have but with greater capacity
you seen any other vids of his ?
Alr I get either or for free so which one?
i'd get the 32gb kit due to it's capacity
Maybe. Only that one really stuck / resonated with me though. I'd have to take a look at his historical back catalog.
you might like the " my back won't forgive me" one
how do people use 16gb of ram i use 11 just on discord
i have 32gb ram and most of the time i'm at around 9gb used daily til i load a game up then it becomes 12-16gb usuallly
i have 64gb so i dont care about what i use 🔥
i have 64gb usb stick
i have 2tb hdd 😭
4tb hdd also here
i have 4 2tb samsung 980s pros
Why upgrade if it works fine
1,5 cod update sice
more fps on the fort and r6
fortmite
So we are in the ram crisis now
I have 32gb kingston furry ddr4 and for storage i have in total 2.5tb, 2 tb on an nvme idk the name but its wd 770 i think and then another 480gb on an adata sata ssd
Love scalpers
yes
just already have ram
I do
then u good
But j did a build with raukos help for a architect friend and since she wants it white it gone from 150 32 gb ddr5 ram to 500
AHAHAHAHA
you need that ddr3
What cpu?
peak
I have 5700x
A10 6800k
Is ts good
yes
W
I’m saying what could I upgrade to
5950x3d
can you send link? for some reason I cant find it
use ali expreess
a diff platform or an x3d chip
everything above a 5600x that isnt an x3d will perform almost identically
true
i mean i just upgraded from r5 5600x to a r9 5950x
or an A10
i mean yeah
oh i meant for gaming
yeh in other stuff thered be differences
just go am5 then.
or am6
would a 420mm AIO with direct die cooling and liquid metal with air intake attached to an AC vent from my window (intaking cold winter air) and keeping fans at max rpm keep a ryzen 9 5950x under 50C at full load? Need to do consistent overnight workstation loads and I needa make sure its reliable.
i still dont know what 6 7 even is
I'm not sure what ts is but the 3Dmark score is decent.
Ts = This
Ah I don't speak in slang abbreviations. 🤷
Must be old
i'm pretty sure it's "this shit"
ts != this bro 😭

Should I buy a laptop
what purpose?
yesn't
if ur not gonna use it as an actual laptop then do not
study mainly perhaps minor amount of gaming
would you bring it to lectures or classes? or just at home
i need to carry it to lectures
hm, what games would you want to play?
would you also hook it up to a monitor and sutff at home?
id only play games like valorant or cs and i dont think id be hooking it up to a monitor
i need something that would carry me through University
just get a laptop with a pretty basic gpu
and doesnt look like youre a fucking geek in classes and sound like a fucking jet engine
i have a grudge agaisnt people who use gaming laptops in class\
@void parcel
mac boook
ram is more
not here, 120 usd for 16gb of ddr5
for me its 300
best laptop for daily use though lol
how are framework laptops looking like rn
$749 for a macbook air what?
they’re nice imo, just expensive compared to the competitob
Installed my new ram and it’s still at 2933 😭
did you change it in the bios?
I shall not buy a laptop this year, next semester it is.
1 sec I am rn
Does the d ram voltage matter?
Also needed to inquire if using a 8 gig ddr4 ram along side a 16 gig ddr4 ram both of the same clock speed would affect my system negatively
Oh just use xmp profile?
if they are the same speed, no
yeah
yes
Okay
I shall go "borrow" 1 singular 16 gig ram stick from my siblings pc now
Didn’t work
My motherboard did a bio update and I went from not having pcie 5.0 to suddenly having pcie 5.0… on a pcie 4.0 board… how is this possible?
huh?
It’s a B650 board from late 2024
if the pcie slot was 4.0, its not physically possible to increase its speed
That’s what i thought
I’m so confused rn
Hold on
only set xmp on, nothing else
So everything else auto?
yes
I’m getting ragebaited by my own pc
beef battel
stil didnt work
reset bios then try again
also
is only the 3600mhz ram in the board?
or did you mix the old with the new
@random gyro
how is this possible
it was never pcie 5
not possible
It is
im serious
it was pcie before but just acting in pcie 4 mode
reset bios, reset then try again
the motherboard when i bought it claimed not to have pcie 5.0
all b650 boards has access to pcie 5.0 somewhere
they do??
yeah
since when
since they released lol
Reset all of bios? I think I oc my cpu 😭
you just gotta redo it
its not hard
take a picture of it
its easy
yeah
I lowkey think my bios is outdated
then update it
get a usb drive, go to google and search up your board and find the list of bios updates, you have a 5600x so you wont need to worry about it removing compatibility with your cpu
Luckily for me I have a usb drive I use daily
download it to ur usb, then go back into bios and find the "EZ flash" option in the Tool tab and select the bios update file and it will do its own thing
Ight thanks
dont turn off the pc or do anything while it installs or you will brick ur pc
If my pc explodes I blame you ❤️🩹
wont be my fault lol
Is there a way to see the last time I’ve updated bios?
find the bios version and compare it to the current listings
04/18
yeah its old
?
bitlocker if enabled will lock your drive to your system, so if you get a new motherboard or cpu, it will not be able to access that drives data
bitlocker disabled for me, is that bad?
updating bios risks wiping that encryption key which is why you see that warning
no, its just an optional security thing, you see it often in company computers
you likely dont need bitlocker
dont turn it on
so I dont need to worry about it
yeah, ur good
so format32 fat, take the zipped file and put it in? or do I unzip it on the drive?
I store the zipped and nonzipped version when I do the update as Id rather do both instead of get it wrong and go back to do the opposite of what ever is there
will it affect anything?
you will only get 1 option so its no big deal
alright
na, when you unzip it, just throw it into the USB along side the zipped version
Alright it’s working
cant wait for this damn board holy shit man
I wonder if this will fix my shutdown problems too
wdym
On dx12 Fortnite my pc would shutdown entirely
uh, what is ur psu
750w evga super nova gold
also run dx11 on fortnite, dx12 runs like ass
Not on amd..
ok ur fine on that, yeah it can
dx12 runs better for me on my 6900xt/7800x3d
my 6900xt dies on dx11 bad
omg 6900xt twin
yup! I bought my pc for 600 bucks
really? my 4080 shits the bed on dx12 for fortnite
I think amd does way better on dx12 than 11
Do you use performance mode dx12 or just dx12?
I tried all settings
just dx12
Can I control the color the Radeon lights up on my 6900xt? Is that possible?
what 6900xt do u have
depends on the gpu
not sure if u can change it on the reference model
oh, normal amd
Okay it worked I think
Don't think you can change the color on reference models.
That’s lame
That's AMD for you </3
At least on mines it's either purple, light blue, or off nothing else
I don’t like the orange ngl
but I got a 7900xt (modded bios)
Yea if I had other open box options when I got my 7900xt I would've gotten it
Your cpu cooler is friends your gpu
But MC had that single Powercolor Hellhoud for the price of a 7800xt so I just got it lol
idk why it’s so big 😭💔
friends?
Or frying?
So for some reason my memory can’t be put to 3600?
I think my motherboard can’t support it
Or they in the wrong slots idk
so is my NH-U14 TR4-SP3 with this RX580
(no, i can't move the CPU cooler further up, that is as high as it goes. Also can't rotate it, no such thing on Threadripper). I could move the GPU lower, but meh, it fits
gears are looking nice
if you're trying the corsair ram for that, it won't not without tuning, and it's going to be unlikely for the specific kit you have
it's possible dude, on certain am4 mobo's a bios update put the pcie 3.0 into pcie 4.0 and then a bios update later put it back to pcie 3.0
I dont have the corsair , I got this
but it wont go to 3200mhz nor 3600
you have the ram in slots a1 + b1 or a2 +b2 ?
Put them in 2nd and 4th slot
really? how? I thought they was physically different
should i update bios? i have AM5 ASrock motherboard and bios is 10 months old
looking to upgrade from a ps5 to an xbox. Struggling to decide on which xbox to get between the s and x. Besides the X having a disk drive, more space, and being able to run games at 4k what really is the big difference? On my ps5 i have found that every game I have are rather digital so it may be more fit to buy the series x just based off that
it's supposed to be different, but yeah, it's happened
Since we're on the topic of rams, can someone tell me how to approach this issue in a logical way?
I have 2 sets of Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR5 6000MHz CL30 Dual channel.
I've had one for one year now, and now I bought a second set.
Each set works fine on its own. They're both detected and they can both be set to Expo mode.
However, if I try to run with them at the same time, the system crashes. It doesn't get to post.
And if by some miracle it passes the post, it freezes when loading windows.
I've asked aroud on the forums, and someone gave me their timings to try out, but it didn't work
I reckon guess work isn't going to go far here. I need to understand how to select my timings and voltages.
yes
i have the x, get the s.
equal performance, cheaper, smaller.
hi
thats wild, learn something new every day lmao
a2 +b2 is what you should be on then
You reckon? That's what i was leaning more towards to be honest.
Thanks
You think buying used is any good?
i bought mine used, perfectly fine
lasted 3 years
only 3 years? 😥
ive had it for 3 years, still works.
oh lol
why?
most of it is security wise, but also incase any previous bugs are found and the newer one has fixed them
which security?
ram
My setup consists of a modern coloured CRT with up to 1280 by 960 resolution, a high end Pentium 100 MHz, Nvidia graphics, imagine being able to render a pdf document in less than half a minute, not everyone can do that, a lot of RAM, specifically 32 MB, 32 whole megabytes, can you believe that? And of course a high capacity 1.2 GB storage drive. Oh and I didn't mention the high end stereo speakers, you know, it's amazing that you can use a single cable to get this good surround sound with this new technology, they even have volume and bass control built into the front, actual bass, not just some mudding, but an actual variable bass. Can you all imagine that? Probably not, you're probably still running old 486s...
Better than mine
Ice ice baby (seal)
Going see FNAF 2 again
ice
its the same shit different brand
dont buy the series S it cant run shit
spent $20 CAD on this used pc, heres what is has so far,
Gtx 1050 2gb
fx 8350 cpu
16gb ddr3 gskill
Msi 970 am3 mobo
fractal core 1000 case
case was free, mobo,ram, cpu combo was $5, gtx 1050 was 15$
lmk how much that would sell for if i added a minimum 400w psu and 120-240gb sata ssd
ATX mobo in an mATX case lol
quick question do i need to download these?
drivers you should, 3rd party utilities hell no
the lion doesn't need drivers
thats what i was thinking
cause im still on 2024 nvidia drivers
so like do i really need to download my motherboard and cpu drivers 🤔
you want all those drivers
there are no drivers for the cpu
Upgrade from a ps5 to an xbox x? What are you smoking
motherboard drivers for the chipset and it's interconnect
so wrong
your guess would be incorrect
also the xbox s won't run shi at 4k or be even close to the ps5's graphics
well, microcode is kind of like a driver
what a low bar
i think running ultra 4k is a good enough bar
its in ur best interest to download ur graphics drivers
why is linux soo good
my pc runs 32k 10000 fps
i meant pc hasn't blown up yet
im using ubuntu it feels so great but it feels weird ive been a windows user all my life
depends on the version of linux but yeah overall its not bad
chill guys

i shorted my last pc cause i dropped a screw and plugged in the power supply without pressing the switch before
just do it if you want the best stability and security. Again I repeat DO NOT download norton and shit
its a good bar to have
the mobo or psu?
windows has been in such a downwards spiral recently, its quite great to not use pure bloat
both my motherboard had scorch marks and the psu fried
why does it look like windows xp how do i force it into full screen
"recently"? people have been complaining about windows since forever
it was also probably because i didnt plug the cable into an adapter either cause i was overseas
south africa voltage doesnt fw american cables
on windows it would be Alt + enter
can u not f11 it on linux
rofl, true
i think beamng has some f11 bind in it
while this is true, the user experience has gotten exponentially worse in the past year?
F11 on beamng opens the editor
like mid life of windows 10 was kinda solid tbh
I had to set it ingame to borderless for it to work
eh, that's more firmware, and that would point to the bios not cpu
alt + enter is the default bind for fullscreen for beamng, but check your keybinds
does anyone have the issue with last years windows 11 where ur chrome tabs would glitch out or blend depenmding on where ur mouse was posisitoned?
yes yes yes yes
like u could see both tabs overlapped
in the past year it hasn't really changed for me personally
But on brave since i use brave
now, imagine this, you set the game to fullscreen and your fps drops by 70%
go back to ztt to troll there instead
i hate windows 11 with a passion but microsoft killed 10 D:
I don't use Chrome so no
i mean if ur hardware isnt shit it actually performs better
ive maybe just been daily driving linux for too long at this point, but ive found it to be downright unusable sometimes
chrome in the giant, enormous, huge, rotund 2025
ig but i feel like there is a lot of bugs and bloatware
extrtemly slow and search is now 100 times more useless
honestly pre copilot windows 11 was also pretty much fine
same bloat that was in windows 10 (added AI in win 11 ig)
just remove it
im using a 9800x3d and a 4070 ti super so ion think my parts are that bad but windows 11 is just disgusting
i might switch to linus once i figure the os out
how are you planning on putting a psu in this when the mobo is fully in the way?
more work
i promise if u go back to windows 10 right now youll go back to 11 in an hour
its really solid actually
probably
youd likely lose performance on windows 10
about 130 fps constant on normal-high settings on west coast map (most intensive)
my windows 11 experience is change all of the settings once when I set it up, opt out of all of the optional data collection, turn off OneDrive, etc.... but after I do that it's fine
idk how much i got on windows
so much of the Windows 11 hate seems so forced to me
oh hello Mr Holmes
there's certain things about it that are improvements, like the new file explorer, that I get annoyed whenever I use Windows 10 now
Whats a decent programm to copy my own dvds onto my pc?
And y'know, the settings being usable, unlike the mess that was the windows 10 settings
i dont hate windows i actually like it a lot but these recent updates made me switch
now i rest easy knowing i have freedom over my pc
does vlc actually let you rip cds?
VLC??
i know its hated on in the audio community for being slow and not that good (i can confirm the slow part ngl)
so idk if its good for movies
I think make mkv is what everyone uses but I could be wrong
Idk if it's actually the best option, but everyone uses it so there's a ton of documentation and tutorials online
whenever steam gives a popup or crashes i get windows 98 looking menu bars
ok its 1 am im gona slep bye bye
you're really changing your opinion over here
2 months ago there wasnt slop ai in file explorer
Honestly base windows 11 is kinda still nice...
remove some bloat and it even uses less than 8-12gb of ram for nothing
Microsoft just keeps piling so much bs on it
what are you talking about
the file explorer on windows is slow and broken now and instead of fixing it they made it be 3 times slower
"less than 12gb" is that what the standards are now?
I've noticed it's on of the popular options out there, especially since it's cheap on the license.
Ive been using a fairly old phone today 
The ram hoarding is my smallest issue rn
the generell performance is just shit
why does startup take years???
Why does my internet randomly slow on my pc
even tho every other device ofer wifi is fine
I got a direct ethernet connection
why is windows just slow sometimes??
