[jovial swan]

is the radeon 890m IGPU strong enough for battlefield 6?

[azure topaz]

the am4 rig is still churning away

[cold skiff]

890m?

[azure topaz]

4200 18

[cold skiff]

Dayumn son. Why you using an 890m

[rigid fjord]

you forgot to call him fuckwit

[daring crystal]

Android 16 QPR3 Screen automation on Pixel 10 is for computer use https://share.google/GKn1RrFk8JNIMRChw

[deft widget]

no

[jovial swan]

the thingy on the ryzen 365

[cold skiff]

Honestly. I’ve seen the South Park Fortnite my kid was playing earlier and I almost called him the donkey insult.. that’s tbfh, an instant ban. I’d ban me for that one.

And I hate banning people for insults but I’d ban me for that

[rigid fjord]

equal to a 1650/1060(3gb) it'll work but don't expect greatness for the game

[cold skiff]

1060 3gb wasn’t that basically a 1040?

[deft widget]

im using 1060 its 6gb

[rigid fjord]

tbh, the 1060 was weird due to multiple versions

[cold skiff]

There’s two completely different versions

[deft widget]

ok

[hallow jasper]

to launch and play the game? sure. at an acceptable quality and framerate for you? Well, here are some other games https://youtu.be/wSUgoQwqi-s

[tidal geyser]

and the b390 should be about at least like 50% better while offering a decent upscaler and actual decent frame gen and even MFG

[cold skiff]

Yeah I could never place the 3gb because i used the 6gb and it was a completely different card to the 3

[deft widget]

im usin asus rog

[iron glen]

Quit flexing

[deft widget]

wut?

[rigid fjord]

3gb,5gb,6gb and possibly a couple other versions

[tidal geyser]

wait a week or two and get a panther lake laptop and enjoy 20w BF6

[deft widget]

ok

[cold skiff]

Shit me they did a 5!?

[iron glen]

Wsp rauko

[rigid fjord]

the 5gb version was for asian market

[rigid fjord]

not much, you?

[cold skiff]

Tbh I remember getting a 1060 6gb not long after release. Back in the days when white gpus were 10% cheaper than other designs

Was a baller card for £160

[jovial swan]

ok. i might

[rigid fjord]

and it still loses to an rx580 btw

[deft widget]

but 1060 gb is not bad

[cold skiff]

Yeah but drivers in 2017

[jovial swan]

i aint getting paycheck untill the 30th, but if i sell my setup for 1700 USD then i can def afford panther lake

[deft widget]

no problems with that

[cold skiff]

I weren’t waiting for AMD to release a card with a small bit more performance that was gonna crash half the time

[iron glen]

Just got done studying
Lwk want to diy smth stupid together, looking for inspiration rn

[cold skiff]

Oh and I wanted to use physx on Batman and mirror edge

[tidal geyser]

the best part is that those laptops are so thin, the best version long term gaming might be the yoga 7i

[jovial swan]

only issue is i dont know what the prices will be for the panther lake laptops that actually has the B390

[tidal geyser]

1500$ ish for you convert that to dkk

[rigid fjord]

drivers in 2025 still for the rx580 though

[jovial swan]

but only the X series would have the B390.

[tidal geyser]

yes

i know, in the US they should go for around 1300$

[cold skiff]

To be fair 1060 has too. Alas, I sold that 1060 for £100 so not bad

Missed like 5 years of having a pc and tbfh, no major big games I’d even play came through until I got another pc.l 2 years ago

[rigid fjord]

i could probably get that or a tiny bit more for an rx580, though never going to sell my rx590

[cold skiff]

That actually mega disappointed me

[tidal geyser]

dam q2 for the 7i

[cold skiff]

The fact I went 5 years without a pc and cs, osrs and pubg are still my main games is kind of lame. I’d play arc raiders tbh if I had time but that’s the only release since 2017 I’d actually wanna play long term

das old

[jovial swan]

1800 USD for the 355 version

355 dont got the IGPU

[tidal geyser]

or wait funky

[tidal geyser]

only X

[jovial swan]

as i said yeah

theres no laptops showing anywhere with the X model

[tidal geyser]

like i said wait 1-2 weeks

true launch aint until the 27th

[warm saddle]

What do you think about my build in which i will have 7800x3d, 9070xt, but only 1tb NVME SSD that i have now in my pc?

[clear canyon]

like a 5070

[clear canyon]

its a pc

[warm saddle]

how do you mean?

[clear canyon]

you asked what I thought, I dont see anything besides it just being a pc

[cunning grail]

How's 5070 compared to 4070 Ti (not super) in 1440p

[clear canyon]

google it

[tidal geyser]

should be the same

[tidal geyser]

use any of the hundred other LLMs

[odd sparrow]

What if im from north korea perhaps

[tidal geyser]

wat

[kindred halo]

Literally just

[tidal geyser]

lets goo im starting to feel better

[kindred halo]

Google
4070 Ti

Open TechPowerUp

[tidal geyser]

no

it does not show the whole truth

[kindred halo]

"I am lazy"
Takes more time and effort than to go to Google and just click 4070 Ti

[kindred halo]

Would you rather Tech city or something

[tidal geyser]

better to do the modern card then do 5070 techpowerup review

[tidal geyser]

no actual reviews

spending over like 100$ you really should check reveiews when possible

[kindred halo]

Whuh

[tidal geyser]

you also get stuff like MFG with the newer card

[cunning grail]

i was half-joking

[kindred halo]

Oh
Sorry, been getting lots of completely serious instances of that lately 💔

[tidal geyser]

main issue for rtx 5000 reviews is that most of em happened with launch drivers

[cunning grail]

i was already on discord on phone so it'd be more effort than writing here but i searched anyway after

[cunning grail]

yea it's understandable dw

the internet

[kindred halo]

Eitherway I'd personally say that 4070 Ti to 5070 isn't worth it tbh

[tidal geyser]

wat

[kindred halo]

Many odds and ends, and many more individuals to "experience"

[kindred halo]

Adding my own two cents as a finishing detail because I've nothing to argue

[cunning grail]

dont have a pc rn, sold it months ago for family budget reasons, but now i can buy again mostly just dont wanna get something worse than i used to have

well not "now" but like in a month or so

it was 4070 ti on a 1440p monitor

[kindred halo]

They're around the same probably

I'll get a review in, one second (probably a few)

[cunning grail]

yea seems like theyre basically the same

i thought about downgrading to 1080p

for more fps

not sure tho, 1440p is really nice

[kindred halo]

https://youtu.be/XQKOGTiFRCc?si=wps0QE9uiZfwAMFS

Watching this

[kindred halo]

Quality DLSS can help

[cunning grail]

yeah

honestly even thought getting a 4k monitor to play native 1080p but having the productivity benefits 💀

but felt like it was too much work

picking 1080p on most games

[kindred halo]

1080p on a 2160p would look.... Probably horrid

I'd say 1440p is your best choice

[slim reef]

yo i have a b550m with a ryzen 5 5600g and a rx 6750 xt 12gb. i want to upgrade to a 9060 xt. will my cpu handle a 9060 or it will go boom

[kindred halo]

It's usable for both scenarios

[tidal geyser]

yes just enabled rebar

[cunning grail]

isnt 1080p on 1440p screen the horrible one? i remember reading about 4k scaling perfectly to 1080p

[cunning grail]

yea makes way more sense

[slim reef]

pc will go boom?

[cunning grail]

only 1 game i play is very weird about 1440p anyway

[kindred halo]

Lemme see

[mild socket]

anyone out there still sell barebones desktops with like no video card in them? alternatively any system integrators using b580s these days?

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/black-cat-sideward-carpet-drag-lol-gif-7916045

[tidal geyser]

ever heard of dlss upscaling?

[cunning grail]

who knows my budget could change in 1-2 months anyway rn im mostly searcing for the "worst case scenerio"

[cunning grail]

kinda

[tidal geyser]

i just sold a desktop with no dpgu

also yes a handful of stores do that

[jovial swan]

is quadro RTX A4000 mobile good for gaming on a laptop bougth second hand?

[mild socket]

this is for a friend who I don't really want to have to like explain to him how to put a whole desktop together so was hoping to find something that I can tell him to buy as a package then slap a b580 in it

[cunning grail]

yeah basically the same just 5-6 frames less on average

5 fps sacrifice for new series makes more sense

[tidal geyser]

look on different stores

[mild socket]

I have been. checked 6 of them so far. avadirect seems to do that but wanted to comparison shop

[tidal geyser]

its a pro card so should be fine could just meet some strange issues in very modern games

[kindred halo]

Okay, results are sorta mixed

Some say it's decent, some say it's horrible

[tidal geyser]

just use dlss

this is the point of it

i wonder if transformer v2 works even better on 5000 cards over 4000

[steel umbra]

1080p on 4k looks worse ngl

in terms of downgrade

as of typical sizes, 4k displays tend to be larger

also you don’t need to use full display

[shadow condor]

sorry guys idk why i didnt get ANY notifcation yes plastic is off yes its under load playing marvel rivals but not even in game just the menu and no pbo

.

its a new build havent messsed with anything in bios

TLDR;
I want to make a plugin to change the theme based on the scenario bc its a pain to do it each and every time
Themes are taken from the theme folder, and loaded/taken from the ram during runtime
I need to find which value would control the persistent selected theme, so I can edit it with code based on the scenario

[viral kayak]

What is this cable for

[left trellis]

been trying to use the changed and unchanged values to narrow it down

[tidal geyser]

nvidia gpus aka 12v-2x6 power cable

i really need to get myself a shelf where i can put laptops in pieces while i wait months for the new parts to come

[cold skiff]

Just use those paper folders

Can see how high a stack from the floor you get, how many it takes for them to fall and you can even play jenga when bored

[tidal geyser]

already doing the last thing

[cold skiff]

That whole decor has single man vibes

[tidal geyser]

uh

[cold skiff]

We really do suck at decorating don’t we

Like if it wasn’t for my missus I’d never paint a wall tbfh

[azure topaz]

LOL

this is the best image you couldve given for the context

it just keeps going

[cold skiff]

I hope on another wall you have a cocoon

[tidal geyser]

This is better

Just do not tell the landlord I might have had a unstable grip on a desktop computer

[azure topaz]

LOL

threw it into the door cause he was mad

[tidal geyser]

nah it was late and i had a test so i was stress cleaning and yeeaaa bad grip and i think a bad floor did me dirty

[cold skiff]

Holy butterflies

Why all the butterflies? Encanto fan?

[tidal geyser]

i got a AMS

so why not, something i can use all 4 colors with

[winter lantern]

should i panic buy a gpu i heard 16gb is getting discontinued

[cold skiff]

Yes

[random gyro]

holy shit is it that bad

[tidal geyser]

makima how have you not done it already

[random gyro]

am i gonna be stuck with a 4gb 3050 for like the next 10 years

[cold skiff]

Panic buy a 9070xt as Nvidia is discontinuing 5060ti and 5070ti 16gigs

[random gyro]

not that its bad, it is a good gpu

[tidal geyser]

you could maybe be using a 3090 right now if you did not call NWR i think it was a scammer

[random gyro]

but like, 4gb isnt enough sometimes

[azure topaz]

(at all)

[tidal geyser]

4GB at like 5440:1440 or smn

[cold skiff]

I was thinking of keeping a 7800xt for 5 years. It’s probably gonna be good for 10

[tidal geyser]

he has a MASSIVE ultrawide monitor

[azure topaz]

and who set that up

[random gyro]

not always, i dont do much vram intensive stuff, but id like 6 or 8gb

[cold skiff]

Nvidia didn’t lie a few years ago. The more you buy the more you really do save

[tidal geyser]

how makimas setup looks like i feel like when he plays games his eyes look like this

[cold skiff]

8gb vram market but gonna stagnate GPUs. Be no point upgrading when if you have above entry level with more than 8gb it’s gonna just out last generations to come.

[halcyon fox]

Hehe

[random gyro]

three sins here: why macbook, why windows, why macbook with windows

[winter lantern]

so youre saying peoplea re dumb for using these moniters

[cold skiff]

He’s not saying that

[azure topaz]

vro got gpt on the taskbar

[cold skiff]

He’s saying only people with a specific eye disability benefit

[tidal geyser]

i also saw dat

[winter lantern]

amd is gonna copy nvidia

[halcyon fox]

I use it for editing

[tidal geyser]

in like 5 years

[halcyon fox]

And nuanced tech questions

[random gyro]

fair enough, apple silicon is good

[cold skiff]

We had a guy at work who used chatgpt. He was awful when he started the job. He for sacked after 18 months. ChatGPT was no help

[tidal geyser]

whenever you need to use your keyboard you sit way too close

[halcyon fox]

It's intel

[azure topaz]

well its on windows

[halcyon fox]

Native windows 11 installation

[random gyro]

forget what i said then, intel macs are eh

[halcyon fox]

Yep

[cold skiff]

For sure. But I got a 16gb card already

[halcyon fox]

Native windows tho

This is the last MacBook pro with intel

[cold skiff]

I prefer my invaded windows

[random gyro]

yeah, really impressive. is that a touchbar model?

[winter lantern]

well i use a controller when i actually game

[cold skiff]

That’s kind of the American policy

[halcyon fox]

Yep!

Love it

[azure topaz]

well yea you kinda do not have a choice

[tidal geyser]

floppa do you know any good uses for a 40 pin laptop display

miiight have bought the wrong one

[winter lantern]

i do have a chouce quit implying that im stupid.

[halcyon fox]

What are your specs?

[random gyro]

i7 12700h, 64gb, rtx 3050 4gb

[winter lantern]

the moniter came with the pc anyways its not like i paid a crazy amount for it

[tidal geyser]

you only have so much space but even with my normal monitor i like having it a bit of a distance back

[random gyro]

i say not bad, its like a steam deck but more

[azure topaz]

put it in your rig as a big aida panel/just to look copol

[tidal geyser]

1650 super and fkn 5440:1440 i think

[limpid ivy]

lol got one too same spec. Was a former company laptop lost in shipping I never told them got from the terminated employee

[tidal geyser]

well im selling my desktop :3

[halcyon fox]

Pretty decent!

[winter lantern]

the whole setup was 1000 and the 1650 super obv wasent in it the 4090 was

[halcyon fox]

3050 ain't great tho tbh

[random gyro]

yep, i am looking forward to getting an egpu

[halcyon fox]

Ohhh 😂

[halcyon fox]

You have thunderbolt ports?

[random gyro]

and the 3050 is already fine for what i do with it, just lacking on vram thats all

[tidal geyser]

OMG it was a 4090

[random gyro]

yep, one thunderbolt 4

[halcyon fox]

Same. I only have 4gb 😭

[halcyon fox]

Niiiiceeee

[winter lantern]

yeah i never said it was a 3090 i just didnt correct you

[limpid ivy]

Perks doing IT, you get to steal stuff under their nose if you know how to play the system really good.

[halcyon fox]

That makes sense. Good for you

[azure topaz]

so true panda

this guy so real sometimes

[random gyro]

i can get an egpu enclosure from aliexpress and an rtx 2070 super for about 400 buck

[tidal geyser]

i thought since you have not repaired it, it meant it was just a old card you could not be bothered with

[halcyon fox]

|| imo don't buy tech from AliExpress.... ||

[azure topaz]

hurray

[azure topaz]

you can build an entire computer with a 2070 super in it for 400$

[mint umbra]

why can older amd cards not use fsr 4

[random gyro]

actually you can get a good egpu enclosure in aliexpress

[tidal geyser]

i got a ML350 gen10 only had to mess around a lot with the PDB and now got a dual xeon with 96GB ddr4 ecc

[azure topaz]

because they lack the instruction type FSR 4 uses

[winter lantern]

its just like 600$ to repair and 200$ if he cant repair it and is worth like 800$ broken

[winter lantern]

they dont have the chip

[random gyro]

and do i have the space for one? i need a laptop since i bring it everywhere with me.

[tidal geyser]

600$ to repair???

[winter lantern]

yeah

[tidal geyser]

last time i checked no repair was like 50$

[mint umbra]

like older nvida cards are able to use dlss 4.5

from what ive read

[azure topaz]

so your solution is to overpay...my point...

[random gyro]

might as well have it all in one with an egpu dock so that i have more performance when im at home

[winter lantern]

its based on the value of the gpu

[azure topaz]

nvidia likes us more

[tidal geyser]

their max is 359???

[mint umbra]

just feels bad that a card that is only one generation old cant use fsr 4

[tidal geyser]

pre 4000 lacks fp8 so worse performance

[random gyro]

i say it is worth it because i can use it with any thunderbolt 3/4 device i have meaning i can still use it after i upgrade

[limpid ivy]

Or just refuse to send stuff back i hoarded a lot of the hp 800 G9s that were meant for the migration but after the whole shitshow they didn’t deserve it.

[tidal geyser]

it can?

well int8

[random gyro]

i cant get a pc because space is an issue and a pc might take up a considerable amount of it

[mint umbra]

I looked it up and said is only supported with 9000 series

[winter lantern]

other fees add an extra 300

[azure topaz]

it will go on the am4 rig

[tidal geyser]

tf did you look up

[tidal geyser]

what fees

[winter lantern]

youll also prob need like 50-100$ for shipping

[tidal geyser]

so 450

[tidal geyser]

for a 4090 you got for free and still is just lying there as a paper weight

[clear canyon]

free 😔

[azure topaz]

clueless

[tidal geyser]

maybe show the whole image

[robust trail]

Finally. My office is ready for moving back in

[winter lantern]

1000$ setup isnt free but okay

[clear canyon]

nice

[tidal geyser]

WTF damocleas

[mint umbra]

that video pretty sure is some workaround

[tidal geyser]

but the gpu is still a paper weight right now right?

[tidal geyser]

that is what it says yes?

[winter lantern]

uh huh

[tidal geyser]

optiscaler

[mint umbra]

Its not officially supported

[tidal geyser]

what have you done with the 4090 these past months?

[tidal geyser]

yes but you can still use int8 fsr4 on it with optiscaler

[winter lantern]

what do you expect me to do

[clear canyon]

[mint umbra]

not messing with some workaround that could mess things up

my pc already has enough problems

[tidal geyser]

how many times do i need to say it

[tidal geyser]

oki

[winter lantern]

ill need to pay like 250 if he cant repair it 😔

[clear canyon]

[winter lantern]

thats like a day of work as an adult but i couldent relate

[tidal geyser]

why not just look at different places, its been a paper weight this entire time so even a meh shop would not matter

[winter lantern]

hes the best there is

not many other options

[tidal geyser]

yes but you clearly do not want to pay that

[winter lantern]

everyone else would too because you have to pay for their time even if they cant do the thing you wanted them to do

[tidal geyser]

but all these months that gpu has just been taking up space

just sell it at some point

[winter lantern]

well they can still sell for quite a bit

[tidal geyser]

so sell it

[mint umbra]

I wish youtube didnt have algorithm

[winter lantern]

ebay is a scam for sellers

[mint umbra]

Its so bad

[tidal geyser]

not if you mark it as broken

[mint umbra]

never actually gives me vidoes I want to watch

[winter lantern]

they can still claim it as broken and steal the core and vram and return it lol

[tidal geyser]

wat???

[winter lantern]

yep

[tidal geyser]

have you ever used ebay

[winter lantern]

yep

[tidal geyser]

no you have not

[winter lantern]

i have

[tidal geyser]

if you sell it as fully broken ebay support will take one look and deny

[clear canyon]

[mint umbra]

like why does everything have to be an algorithm for shit it thinks you want to see

[tidal geyser]

money

[winter lantern]

oh its a new thing

crazy

[tidal geyser]

yea it is crazy

[winter lantern]

ebay having sellers backs is crazy tho

[tidal geyser]

almost like someone made it up kinda crazy

[winter lantern]

dang so you lied

[tidal geyser]

well you too

[winter lantern]

where

i used ebay just not as a seller

ive never lied

[tidal geyser]

here

[winter lantern]

whats stopping them?

[tidal geyser]

ebay support being actual humans

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/kitty-review-kittyreview-cat-squishy-gif-21044823

[winter lantern]

i just heard sellers have no protection

[tidal geyser]

no

[clear canyon]

https://tenor.com/view/ai-cat-cat-edit-weird-cat-gif-7831841012128567990

[tidal geyser]

nobody would sell on ebay if that was the case

the whole point of ebays protections being so visable is the buyer feels safe but if you sell enough you know you can also feel safe

and even then i had a guy claim a gpu i sold as defective for 1/4 the price of a working version of the gpu was defective

yes he bought a broken gpu and said it was defective

soooooo i just went tf is he talking about told him wtf is dis and he did not contact support

[winter lantern]

but like they can

[tidal geyser]

how

well ok yea they can contact support ofc

but they would be denied

[winter lantern]

ive just looked it up on reddit and they just said youre fucked even if youre item is for parts not working and no returns

[tidal geyser]

m yes reddit

[winter lantern]

yeah?

nothing wrong with it

No reason to lie about that

[tidal geyser]

there is if you were a bad seller and did not list the gpu correctly and are salty about that

[winter lantern]

"don't trust real peoples experiences"

[tidal geyser]

ever heard the dead internet theory

[tidal geyser]

like some tech repair youtuber bought a ps5 and due to the seller not assembling it right LM leaked all over the motherboard and it became a no fix also it was just thrown in a box with no packaging.

spend like 5$ on some bubble wrap and another 5 on a good box then wrap the card up nice and tight put some tape around it so it stays nice and wrapped trow it in the box make sure there is no extra space so it cant just bounce around during its trip and tada.

ofc also take good pictures explain the issues and so on

just do not lie

[ivory mountain]

you did not

[clear canyon]

did you add thermal paste, tighten it down right and remove the film?

[stable depot]

Yea

[tidal geyser]

pics of the wiring maybe?

[stable depot]

There’s plenty of thermal paste I can repaste it but there’s a 3 pin connector to the AIO I don’t have a 3 pin spot on my mobo unless I plug it into a 4 pin?

[clear canyon]

you can plug a 3 pin into a 4 pin

[stable depot]

Oh

[clear canyon]

the bracket is built into the board

you dont use any of those

[tidal geyser]

the normal am4 and well now forced am5 bracket or the things you are already using

[stable depot]

The AIO cooler has a latch thing

What am I gonna latch it to?(

He’s still here, i can ping him

[hallow jasper]

dunno, but no longer affiliated afaik. name not tagged with it anymore

[empty quartz]

Ohhh

[low sage]

Im running into an issue with signal RGB where on war thunder, it throttles my gpu utilization and continuously makes it drop from a 100% to 40% and makes my game unplayable, I am on AMD and the only fix was to uninstall it completely.

[thin bloom]

Is anyone here good with steam vr? I hade to reinstall it and now everything is fucked up. I have something turned on and it auto open when I close it and when I try to boot a game it kicks me out of my steam air link

even if he was here, hes not tech support. thats what #1027757333117415424 is for

Man these guys have a channel for EVERYTHING!

[cosmic stratus]

Im trying get led indication without ram but pressing pwr does nothing.

[thin bloom]

Yeah I don't know what that is

[hallow jasper]

i don't know what that means

[tidal geyser]

You need ram

[empty quartz]

A vr headset 🤦‍♂️

[cosmic stratus]

Guess ill wait then

[tidal geyser]

The computer will not work at all without ram

[hallow jasper]

they're expecting it to attempt to startup and fail, for some reason

with the DRAM LED

which i'm sure it'll do, but i'm not about to pull out RAM and try

[tidal geyser]

Xd

[low sage]

great praise to everyone who told me to get the arctic liquid freezer III

[empty quartz]

Every board is different

[cosmic stratus]

Yea just to see if it even tries.

[tidal geyser]

Just wait for the ram

[hallow jasper]

i dunno then again maybe if no RAM is physically detected at all it won't even attempt to power on. again, still not going to try

[cosmic stratus]

Alrighty, just hoping that's the case and nothing is broken

Usps making me impatient

[hallow jasper]

@tidal geyser is probably right

[stable depot]

Got it fix d thank you guys

[low sage]

what is inevin's issue lmao

[hallow jasper]

speaking of, i need to offload this system and use the cash elsewhere. I don't need a whole PC just to show occasional game maps and play youtube onthe side

[tidal geyser]

.
-# it should technically turn on but not sure if the LEDs would do anything, anyways just wait for ram.

[low sage]

oh

beautiful tank.

[cosmic stratus]

Its comming along nicely

[low sage]

put that top fan on the back

[cosmic stratus]

I wanna see the rog logo lmfao

[low sage]

💀

[tidal geyser]

Btw put the ram sticks when you get them in slot 2 and 4

[low sage]

yeah not 1 & 3

[cosmic stratus]

Oh yea for sure, I own a xeon if u get wat I mean

[frosty ruin]

Install the fan on the outside

[low sage]

what gpu is that?

[tidal geyser]

Quad channel tends to be the same case

Unless it's only 4 slot board ofc

[cosmic stratus]

2 sticks is always A1 B1

[tidal geyser]

Is it?

[thin bloom]

Well the auto open still happens when no headset is connected

[low sage]

look at my beautiful contraption.

[cosmic stratus]

A channel 1 1st slot B channel 2 1st slot no?

[tidal geyser]

Meh just check the manual on xeon stuff but for consumer it's almost always 2 and 4

I'm gonna sleep now

@empty quartz this what happens. there is no vr headset connected. don't know why there is a lack of color in the vid. it's probably something in the settings of obs

Do you guys think high end gaming will ever become less of an expensive hobby

Like I know this is quite far away still but if quantum computers started going mainstream would something like let’s say a 5080 level of performance still be so expensive

[clear canyon]

No

[stark spear]

It is a shame

[clear canyon]

They are completely different things

[stark spear]

Yeah I think I framed the question wrong

When do you think say 5080 level of performance would be closer to lower end cards how far away would that theoretically be

looking back at 9 sometimes im surprised its supposed to be able to handle internet

Is that an M10/M36?

M10 I'm guessing

everything before ios 9 was just peak 2012 quality era

at least the bubble reflections were just an accent and not some morphing curse

again it was best during the time when windows 7 was around

i would get android specifically one with a headphone jack so that eliminates pretty much every samsung

[jovial swan]

I thought they cancelled it in favour of the much more superior gripen.

[fickle ivy]

It's being debated but we already paid for some

[stable beacon]

i used an old phone ish device without any phone features and that had a file manager, it felt really basic i think it ran android 8

[stark spear]

Yeah unfortunately most companies are the same they all point fingers at each other for removing things like headphone jacks to then go do the exact same thing on their phone like 2 years later

[stable beacon]

but the files app i can't even find the main menu for all my drives and folders especially if i have to plug in usb's

[stable beacon]

apple isn't innovative they just do whatever they feel like and watch other people copy it

[jovial swan]

Epic (also loud enough i had tinnitus for days)

[fickle ivy]

F-16s?

[jovial swan]

Yup F-16AM MLU

[stark spear]

Files app suffers from the whole iOS ecosystem and sandboxed environments which don’t get me wrong is a very efficient and secure way to manage different apps and services but the files app is like completely fake and slow and just sucks

[stable beacon]

like i need a laptop with a full sd card slot soon enough and i'll need a cf adapter in the future probably

[jovial swan]

Denmark is officially phassing out the F-16 on Sunday

[fickle ivy]

Can I buy one?

[stable beacon]

yeah like why is it that i can only import my photos onto my computer like i have a real camera i take pictures worth keeping on, my entire library is just screenshots and qr codes and stuff

[jovial swan]

Literally my dream come true to see this back in june

[stable beacon]

i download images onto the files folder sometimes but then i have to get in that app and basically re convert them into a photo instead of just "a file"

[stark spear]

I like how all these companies in late 90’s to mid 2010’s were all the adopters and people pushing all these new technologies, interfaces, and mediums. But now they say yeah give it a USB C port and let them figure it out themselves

[jovial swan]

Nah, half sent to Ukraine other half sold to argentina

[stark spear]

You know what’s crazy until like I think iOS 17 or 16 you couldn’t even change file extensions in the files app

[hexed sage]

hubba hubba

[stark spear]

RIP LAN ports bro

[jovial swan]

lel

[stark spear]

People like WiFi too much

[hexed sage]

nobody wants a thin laptop

[tulip sparrow]

Expanding RJ45 has been a thing for years before that LOL

[jovial swan]

[stable beacon]

the internet is so bad at my house i have to use data instead of the wifi 💀

it's ethernet or nothing for my pc even with a dongle

[stable beacon]

my dad literally modded our walls so he could extend ethernet ports across the house lol

[stark spear]

Can’t lie I think besides laziness and corporate greed the other issue is when the internet and technology started going mainstream is we made too many standards and different ways companies can integrate technologies

[tulip sparrow]

This has been a thing for 10 years at least LOL

[stable beacon]

i mean back then they HAD to, all ports from the 90s share the port structure of using pins, all meant for something different

[stark spear]

Like even though 1Gb Ethernet is plenty for most homes, if you wanna upgrade and can afford is there will still always be devices or types of devices that just don’t have options for higher bandwidth Ethernet ports

[stable beacon]

my dads work laptop had a similar thing but it just popped down instead of all the way out

[stable beacon]

i don't even know how i get 100mbps on a good day or else it unevenly distributes the network or just doesn't like me some days

[stark spear]

Where are you located?

[stable beacon]

lord of the pings says i get chromebook speed today at a whopping 5mbps max

[stable beacon]

next to water boilers hq, silicon valley

[daring crystal]

Home

[stable beacon]

i would personally burn down adobe hq if i had the chance

[stark spear]

I used to have 100 here in Aus but they recently did a wholesale upgrade where people on FTTP now get 500 for the same price

But Australian internet is still an absolute mess

No one is like allowed to offer symmetrical download/upload plans etc etc etc

[stable beacon]

clearly one of the richest economies in the world and yet we just have to squeeze by in ghetto environments while the tech companies justify rising expenses

[stark spear]

Yeah its rough

[stable beacon]

if i didn't live with my dad right now i would just be dead

since being homeless is punishable i guess

[sinful cobalt]

I want a thin laptop

[stable beacon]

i gave up on finding a job and just started getting people to pay for photos and just now it's starting to work out

[stark spear]

It’s because the indicators they use to decide whether to increase prices are things like GDP which ofc in places like Silicon Valley are always going up but these indicators don’t represent the actual people who live in those areas

[hexed sage]

No you dont

[stark spear]

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer

[stable beacon]

median income is literally like 1/100000 of whatever they come up with

[hexed sage]

the poor spends $300 on hotas equipment

[stable beacon]

it's more expensive to live in there than it is to live in san diego now

i don't know where else i could move to since this is my home, and even so california in general

[stark spear]

Also for ever in school we were taught technology has always been getting cheaper as it advances and I remember when hearing that just think about NVIDIA GPUs and laughing to myself

[tulip sparrow]

Yeah guess Apple doesn't want to provide ethernet jacks on their products without squeezing you for even more money

[stable beacon]

now i'm thinking how i can stay away from legal trouble with selling photos since... there's no taxes involved at all, just venmos i call donations

[vague gulch]

Yeah, and how long would this take to settle?

[stable beacon]

2011 apple products were when they had everything but steve jobs was the entire reason they still came up with useful stuff

[stark spear]

correct me if Im wrong but I’m pretty sure only like Apple TVs and maybe lie the Mac Studio still have Ethernet ports

[fallen sky]

Since when was the tokenization thing fixed

[stable beacon]

nintendo is literally the new apple

[stable beacon]

you did it wrong

[tulip sparrow]

Does the modern mac mini not have one?

[stark spear]

Nintendo doesn’t like it when you have fun in a way they don’t intend

[fallen sky]

wha

[stable beacon]

how many strawberries are in the word r

[stark spear]

It could but I’m not sure

[worthy pumice]

Is there a vram shortage now?

[fallen sky]

nope

[tulip sparrow]

All DRAM CHIPS including for GPUS is going towards AI and thus leaving less for the standard consumer

[stable beacon]

i looked at their exec stories, it's always been replacing gaming passionate devs with businessmen

[worthy pumice]

Ah man. Glad I didn’t decide to wait until later to get my GPU.

[stable beacon]

like when toru iwata died etc

[fallen sky]

who

[stark spear]

No, the companies are all just ganging up on consumers and tell them their is by just not selling their products

[tulip sparrow]

Looks like Mac mini does have one onboard

[winter lantern]

Yall think the next gpu generation will be the last one untill full ai

[stable beacon]

the same thing happened with toyota once their ceo wasn't family owned and things only corrected their course once akio toyoda became ceo

[stark spear]

Ok at least they haven’t gone completely insane

[worthy pumice]

Full ai instead of actual rendering is depressing

[stark spear]

If Apple tries killing off Ethernet entirely from all their products we are doomed

[winter lantern]

Money is better ao its understandable

[tulip sparrow]

this on the other hand

[winter lantern]

Isnt eithernet what fiber uses

[worthy pumice]

But it makes for so much slop

[stark spear]

😔

[tulip sparrow]

Powerbuitton on the underside int he back

[stable beacon]

i refuse to believe anyone even uses macs other than the unupgradeable shit like macbooks and whatever aio monitor things are

[worthy pumice]

Why would they discontinue ethernet when wifi sucks in comparison??

[winter lantern]

Cause wifi more popular

[worthy pumice]

Not really.

[stable beacon]

like actually how did they EVER implement pci e ports into their cheese graters that i have yet to see a singular person own

[stark spear]

Ethernet is technically a standard but I’m more referring the RJ45 port that modern Ethernet uses

[worthy pumice]

Plenty of businesses still use Ethernet over wifi

[stable beacon]

especially for LAN too right

[stark spear]

WiFi is only good for mobile devices Im my opinion

That includes laptops too

[tulip sparrow]

I just lost it at this on the Apple page CACKLES HEAVILY AND HEARTILY

What brains?

[worthy pumice]

More like Apple Unintelligence

[stable beacon]

yeah the only reason i want a laptop is because i'm thinking of starting to travel a lot even though it's hard to get my ass out of my room for entire days 💀

[stark spear]

WiFi is basically all marketing they release new WiFi standards like WiFi 7 for the new routers and access points but then companies wait a year to even make their devices use WiFi 7 it’s so silly

[tulip sparrow]

I can't really see right now through the tears streaming down my face

[worthy pumice]

Trust me having a good laptop is worth it

[stable beacon]

i'm just glad i forget apple even has ai unlike everyone else who makes sure you know you have to find a way to avoid them clankeRs

[stark spear]

Microsoft…….

[tulip sparrow]

Siri is being repalced by Gemini

[stable beacon]

right now i can still do everything on my pc, besides gaming on 8gb vram

[stark spear]

If it is cool whatever but I tend to not believe anything Apple related till it actually happens

[stable beacon]

i don't know how much of an impact vram has on my photo editing and eventually might have to do video, but having 32gb ddr4 has been a life saver

[worthy pumice]

8gb? Ouch

[stark spear]

The amount of stupid Apple rumours that go around is insane

[tulip sparrow]

I have a Lenovo Yoga 7 16GB of RAM and I have 2GB set as VRAM(max I can have in the BIOS) and a AMD 8840HS running linux

[stark spear]

Me with 4GB 3050Ti Mobile GPU

[stable beacon]

siri used to be peak and even a couple years ago it just redirected everyone to using a browser instead, now i don't even know it exists anymore 💀

[tulip sparrow]

Yeah my 3070 Ti got the shaft with only 8GB of VRAM

[stark spear]

My laptops CPU thermal throttles and I just suffer

[sharp lance]

I dont think i did this water cooling stuff right

[tulip sparrow]

and now everyone is getting the shaft with the discontinuation of the 16GB 5070 Ti and 5060 Ti leaving us with the 8GB 5060 and the 12gb 5070

[stable beacon]

i booted up assetto corsa evo on lowest settings, having extra cpu ram does ease things a bit and it is still early access but "7999mb" is not a good sign 💀

[sharp lance]

Do what i did

[stable beacon]

Ngreedia, microslop

[stark spear]

I might get a laptop cooler and then from then on no more money is going into my laptop and Im just saying for my custom build PC

[empty quartz]

That card is somehow slower than my old laptops 35W dgpu

[stable beacon]

and micron even killed crucial consumer memory leaving us with what we already bought

[stark spear]

There’s no way bro

[tulip sparrow]

Looks like I will be using a 7900XT(X) if I can find one for $600 this year

[stable beacon]

maybe i should go to china and buy those extra vram modded gpus

[tulip sparrow]

VR modding requires extra VRAM

[stark spear]

Just look on marketplace probably

[stable beacon]

let me check if 9070xt is still 600 in my area

[stark spear]

In my area there’s a lot of good second hand GPUs for affordable prices on marketplace

Im broke tho so

[empty quartz]

The 4gb 3050ti is slower than the 1650 ti mobile

[stable beacon]

They're definitely rising now but there's still a bit of hope 💀

[stark spear]

Are you sure wait what this sounds so dumb

[tulip sparrow]

https://www.androidauthority.com/trump-mobile-t1-phone-ftc-letter-3632939/

[empty quartz]

@stark spear nvm, techpowerup is weird

im stupid

[stable beacon]

of course 😔

i'm waiting for the second amendment uprising to actually kill the 🦧 for real this time

[empty quartz]

they changed the order of the list and it descends instead of ascends

[stark spear]

In Australian dollars over here they are like $1099 which is like $735 USD Im paying that much more just because I’m in a different country lol

[stark spear]

Ok I was gonna say like what is this nonsense

[stable beacon]

i still need to sell my parts pc and install some really dumb rgb fans

what can i even do with sandy bridge right now anyway

[stark spear]

But we are talking about NVIDIA the company that makes a 5060Ti with 16GB but then the 5070 only has 12GB because that’s logical

[stable beacon]

maybe if we raided jensen huang's closet and sold all his leather jackets we would get more vram 💀

[winter lantern]

I mean its like a 30% gain

[stark spear]

The fact that high end GPUs over here cost like over $1600 AUD is so stupid

[empty quartz]

@stark spear however, my 10w igpu is more powerful

[winter lantern]

Then the tier after that is another 30ish% gain

[stark spear]

🤨

[empty quartz]

m1 max

[stark spear]

Yeah but it doesn’t make sense to say here have more VRAM on your better card and then be like oh you want a different base model card now okay have less VRAM

[stark spear]

Is that iGPU actually beat a 3050Ti

[winter lantern]

Laptop gpu basically an igpu

[tulip sparrow]

I was hoping for the 50 super series to drop so I could have that 18GB of vram

Vr requires at least an extra 1-2gb of the stuff

[stark spear]

Bros dreaming

NVIDIA loves their 8GB nonsense
