[ionic peak]

i would get morgan

[grizzled frost]

I'm still early game

[ionic peak]

im a game

[valid garden]

???

[ivory mountain]

me when i take 3 villagers and sacrifice their lives for a iron golem farm

[next hill]

Anyone know cmf buds 2 vs 2 pro, which would be better and is it worth spending more

[tidal geyser]

i would imagine the more expensive one is better?

[next hill]

Could be

Sometimes more expensive isnt that good or not that value

[ivory mountain]

i had to mine for 2 hours for ts

[mint umbra]

why is everything usb c these days but motherboards seems to all be usb type a still

[hexed tapir]

Yes usb

[hexed tapir]

I assume the first part is USB C?

[mint umbra]

oh yeah

[hexed tapir]

Mice, keyboards, webcams and flash drives are majority USB A

[ionic atlas]

loading bios update on a usb-c drive seems unsafe /s

[mint umbra]

my keyboard is usb c

[ionic atlas]

same, and these days I only buy those rotating usb-c/a sticks

like these

[next hill]

Seems that people saying plus is better than pro, but i dont even see plus on amazon, only regular and pro

[dark gulch]

am i screwed?

[bright fox]

No I bet you can try to bend them back

If you can’t then yea

[hexed tapir]

Look up the pin layout and see if it's even used

[bright fox]

Yea better idea

[dark gulch]

its vss power

or vcc

[clear torrent]

Finally finished now

[bright fox]

That nas looks cool

[clear torrent]

Gonna need to print another one in the next month though

Stack them on top of each other

[ionic atlas]

texture reminds me of the goated ps1

[bright fox]

How much storage are you planning to put in there

[mint umbra]

saw this on reddit for what some ppl think prices will be on steam hardwear

[tidal geyser]

yes but also that is a 4th or 3rd gen motherboard

[warm saddle]

what to do then?

[clear torrent]

16tb 12tb usable

[tidal geyser]

think they forgot the price of scale

[clear torrent]

xD

[clear torrent]

i get it

110% agree with u xD

[mint umbra]

But theres no way steam frame gunna be that expensive

1600 usd is crazy lmao

[tidal geyser]

well not really for the tech

[clear torrent]

because the mini pc isnt powerful enough

[clear torrent]

but gonna be printing a 2nd rack and just have the mini pc as a NAS then a few pi's + other things for apps, docker and a VM ect

[mint umbra]

they said it would be cheaper than the index

so like 900 usd would be my guess

cuz wasnt index 1000

or was it more idk

[tidal geyser]

where did they say it

but the prices look almost like they are in CAD

when you get economy of scale things become CHEAP

[mint umbra]

pretty sure its usd cuz no way the controller would be 60 bucks lmao

in cad

most controllers in cad are 90+ dollars

atleast first party ones

[rose stream]

Is that the dev kit model?

[mint umbra]

thought they said the the annoucement trailer

[ionic atlas]

yeah the indie dev kit, net yeroza

[tidal geyser]

to you yes

but making them are cheap

[mint umbra]

well with the touch pads and tmr sticks dont think it will be cheap

since other controllers dont have those and are more than 60

[empty quartz]

Ngl

Android phones are wayyy too easy to factory reset

[brave brook]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIkXgxPDDpk

[tired bear]

suboptimal hdd shelfs
no locking mechanism

[brave brook]

🤷‍♂️

this is still the most absurd idea tho

[tired bear]

only relying on sata connector to hold them in is interesting choice for a "portable" rack

[brave brook]

https://makerworld.com/en/models/1737570-thinknas-6x-hdd-nas-enclosure-for-lenovo-m920q

[hexed tapir]

I love it

[brave brook]

or the smaller version https://makerworld.com/en/models/1399535-thinknas-4x-hdd-nas-enclosure-for-lenovo-m920q

and yes, people did Dell versions too

[hexed tapir]

Such a neat idea

[brave brook]

or HP

[tidal geyser]

i am so privileged

i still do not understand how i got a ml350 gen 10

or how i am manging to keep it working

[tired bear]

personally i found a nice design for hp lff caddy and a slot to put them in

[brave brook]

there is also one for NUC

[hexed tapir]

Not as cool looking

[tired bear]

all i need is cheap hdds

[brave brook]

unfortunately EU has no good alternative to serverpartdeals 🙁

26TB Exos for $450 or 22TB for $410 would be nice

[tired bear]

yea

best deal i see is this, it is cmr but survailance drive

[brave brook]

well, the difference is only in error recovery handling

[tidal geyser]

aint survailance the best

[iron glen]

hi sim

[tidal geyser]

ZFS trust

[iron glen]

i sure do love a good mass surveillance

[tired bear]

interesting, isnt that only aplicable when using specific constant stream recording mode

might buy like 4

[brave brook]

afaik they are just very quick at striking out bad sectors

[tired bear]

isnt that a good thing

[brave brook]

yes, it is

NAS drives usually have 8 second TLER. normal drives have 2+ minutes retries. Surveillance are on par or even lower than NAS drives. But well, it only matters when there is an error with drive anyway

for normal operation it is same

[tired bear]

nice

[tired bear]

them i am def gonna buy some, at price of 0.01 euro per gb its half off of cheapest drive on pcpp de

and its not refurb or anything like that

[twin plover]

Anyone know what this is? It just popped up randomly idk what it could be 🤷‍♀️

[tired bear]

ur cooked

did you do some sailing on the high seas?

[twin plover]

Me?

[tidal geyser]

a program is asking for raised privileges

[twin plover]

How do I figure out what it is?

[tidal geyser]

he has malware bytes running so yea i would imagine so

[tidal geyser]

press it

[twin plover]

Nothing pops up

[tidal geyser]

at least he does more than 90% of people here

[twin plover]

Ik I looked it up I don’t trust ai that much lol

[tidal geyser]

what happens if you X it

[twin plover]

Nothing

[tidal geyser]

still there when you reboot?

[twin plover]

I did a malwarebytes scan to see if It could be a virus or something but it came back clean but on my windows defender this pops up

[tidal geyser]

well yea

malware bytes almost has to act like malware to really scan the system

[tidal geyser]

but windows explorer and not downloading strange things are the best way of doing things

[twin plover]

I try not to download weird things lol

[tidal geyser]

that is called marketing

[twin plover]

Wdym?

Imma restart my computer rq see if it’s still there

[tidal geyser]

they will tell you your insecure without paying for premium

[twin plover]

Ahh ok

[tired bear]

when you do first check them in windows sandbox, windows pro or higher is needed and you need to checkmark it in turn windows features on or off

[twin plover]

It’s gone now after I restarted my pc

[tidal geyser]

i fixed another computer

[tired bear]

what was wrong

[tidal geyser]

random tab showing up

[tidal geyser]

this

we do not worry about why

[twin plover]

Wooo

[glacial cliff]

if I have more money in random assorted cabbles used in my PC setups than many people spend on a PC itself, do I have a problem?

fwiw:

[hexed tapir]

$770.

Wtf

[hexed tapir]

Just buy adapters 😭

99 cents

On AliExpress

[glacial cliff]

yes those exact adapters are on my list

[mint umbra]

you can go from usb c to hdmi wtf

[grizzled frost]

yeah...?

[glacial cliff]

its a weird standard and idk if everything supports it

some modern smartphones and tablet devices support HDMI out over their USB C port

not sure if a random 40gig usb c port on a random motherboard will support HDMI out protocols

[valid garden]

☠️ what did I break bro

[tidal geyser]

micro hdmi

[mint umbra]

didnt even know that exits

exists

[valid garden]

I love 16384PB bro

[glacial cliff]

you have to allocate it to a parititon to use it, no?

[valid garden]

seriously how can you ruin a partition table that bad tho

[valid garden]

the point is the partition table is ruined and it thinks I have 16384PB

[hexed tapir]

I'm confused why have a $7.41 micro USB unless that's the adapters

[glacial cliff]

AH that cable was because i had a micro usb mic from razer from like 6 years ago and the position of the micro usb basically means you HAVE to use a micro usb cable into it and not an adaptor, as there isn't enough clearance for an adaptor in the space between the port and the base of the microphone

that shit pissed me off buying that cable

[hexed tapir]

Oh lmao

[glacial cliff]

why do you put the USB PORT on the BOTTOM OF THE MIC liek wtf

[hexed tapir]

I would've carved/shaved it down

[glacial cliff]

the usb port is right under that green light on the bottom of the mic there

the gap between the bottom of the mic and the base plate is like 1 inch if that

[hexed tapir]

Not in the back?!

[glacial cliff]

NOPE

[hexed tapir]

WHY RAZER

[glacial cliff]

obligatory screw razer

[grizzled frost]

usb on a mic = immediately bad

[glacial cliff]

MICRO USB AT THAT

the WORST of the usbs to ever exist

[grizzled frost]

i want to vomit

USB C would have warranted a cease and desist, anything else would have warranted an immediate lawsuit, Micro-USB warrants a hitman

[hexed tapir]

Let's have the base and ports all on the bottom of this sorta slim cylinder Razer engineers

[glacial cliff]

this mic is a holdover from when i bought "cheapest actual physical microphone on shelf at microcenter" with a pc purchase like 6 and a half years ago now, and has been downgraded to my backup mic/mic for work/school computers

i hate it with a passion, but not enough to spend like $20 or $30 on a new mic for my WORK pc

look at this shit, so horrible

[grizzled frost]

i don't think the location could have been any worse

[glacial cliff]

thats a cut out from my post-damage right-hand-side shot of my work desk, fwiw

[hexed tapir]

The bend 😭

[glacial cliff]

i kid you not i have debated buying a less shit cheapo mic like 20 times and throwing this thign away, but the sound quality is actually really not bad for it being my work/school pc mic

[hexed tapir]

So brave of you to post your dirty mouse pad 🤣

[grizzled frost]

i went from the cow maze to the cow blender

[glacial cliff]

when the pc doesn't f up and default to the wrong internal mic on the laptops, i never have any complaints about sound quality from anyone, when we always have soudn quality issues on every work call

[glacial cliff]

did you miss the grossness my entire apartment is suffering from and the fact this was a post-damage photo when i'd been putting all kinds of grimy disgusting damaged products on my desk to photo them for insurance? pictured below is what my floors looekd like after they cleaned up msot of the water, and that black grimey sht got all over everything i owned

[hexed tapir]

I just imagine the shit micro connector or the cable breaking from the bend and constantly moving/desk shuffle of the micro connector

What did the black come from?

[glacial cliff]

I'd like to see anyone's pristine mouse pads after this sht: 😭

[solemn condor]

guyz do i buy 32 gb of ram 3200mhz or do i get 16 gb ram 3000 mhz

[acoustic thunder]

What does it mean when pc stutters and gpu util and power draw drop but cpu util and power and clock stay the same?

[solemn condor]

idk if i really need 32 gb of ram thats why but i havent had it before son i cant tell

[glacial cliff]

grime in the steam pipes in the 70 year old in wall radiator system

[grizzled frost]

do you get the option with more capacity and speed, or the option with less capacity and speed, i wonder

[hexed tapir]

The smell of old water junk is the best /s. When our lifts hit the sprinkler pipes it smells awful

[graceful scroll]

Hy.I'am looking for case might be linus made a video about it that literly no dust into the case.Do you know the company name or the video it was reviewed..Has a chamber didacted to just the dust itself as remember.Anyone else ring a bell?

[solemn condor]

huh

[glacial cliff]

lets put it this way:

I'm routinely maxing out the 16 gigs of ram on this laptop im on rn using just firefox.

[hexed tapir]

Silverstone

[solemn condor]

they're two different listings

[grizzled frost]

"32gb of ram 3200mhz or do i get 16gb ram 3000mhz"

[glacial cliff]

he's poking fun at your question, anyone will tell you get the more/faster ram if you have the means to do so

[hexed tapir]

https://www.silverstonetek.com/en/product/info/computer-chassis/MM01/

[solemn condor]

its just like idk if i need 32 gb of ram

[grizzled frost]

it's not even a tradeoff, one is better in every way, the other is worse in every way

[glacial cliff]

then don't get it, but i think most computer techy types here will suggest the 32

[solemn condor]

and then like one is cheaper and im trying to go on a budget

[hexed tapir]

What's the price difference

[glacial cliff]

then get the cheaper

[solemn condor]

65 then 100

[dark gulch]

you didnt believe in me. after two hours of pin straightening, i just fixed a literal 180 degree bend and got the pc to post. lgs 1155 LIVES ON

im the greatest technician that's ever lived

[solemn condor]

https://www.newegg.com/msi-motherboards-amd/p/2MG-000M-00553/questions

like im thinking of getting this but idk and the ram to pair with this

[ivory mountain]

Good job

[solemn condor]

my budget is 240 and i still need to buy a case

[glacial cliff]

then save the budget and get the cheaper

[tidal geyser]

i think your filament is wet

[glacial cliff]

if you dont think you need mroe from your use case, and you have a budget, then make the decision that works for you

[tidal geyser]

try a dryer

[hexed tapir]

Not sure what $35 can get you other then a better psu

[glacial cliff]

but anyone who is techy will suggest the moar/faster ram

[devout violet]

Has anyone gone through the process of converting hard drives to GPT from MBR

[ivory mountain]

32gb

[ebon marlin]

That's because of firefox

Firefox is poop

[tidal geyser]

many people have yes, unsuccessfully

[hexed tapir]

Don't spend half your budget on the ram then 😭

[devout violet]

😔

[glacial cliff]

every browser is poop honestly, but i got sick of issues i was having with chrome and ditched it at some point. i forget why

[solemn condor]

last time i checked a pc dosent work without ram 💔

[hexed tapir]

$65 16gb kit

[glacial cliff]

they didnt say dont get ram, they said dont blow half the budget on ram

[solemn condor]

unless i can magically use my ddr3 ram 💔

[hexed tapir]

What parts do you own

[solemn condor]

rn like i7 3770 1660 super

best in the century

[glacial cliff]

ive been deceived. i thought i was talking to a pengu this whole time. im heartbroken

[hexed tapir]

And the $240 is for mobo CPU ram and case?

[solemn condor]

paired with that lenevo thinkpad m92 samsung 850 ssd 14 gb ddr3

[solemn condor]

https://www.newegg.com/msi-motherboards-amd/p/2MG-000M-00553?Item=9SIC4VPKS49969

boom 97 ish

motherboard and cpu

[tidal geyser]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/188012831336?

remove everything after the ?

[solemn condor]

then like i few left over

[hexed tapir]

https://www.newegg.com/Seller-Store/SOPBEA the seller doesn't give me great confidence it's real

[solemn condor]

so its fake 💔

[hexed tapir]

I would assume so I don't see any web results for their own website or social media Googling SOPBEA store

And they only have 3 followers on their Newegg store

[glacial cliff]

okee think its tiem for a break

[tidal geyser]

900$ IN SHOES

[glacial cliff]

youre surprised women has shoes? 😄

shoes r esspensive

[tidal geyser]

i have A pair and they are the already discounted kind for like 50$

[glacial cliff]

most of those are brands that are recommended by podiatrists for flat feet issues

[tidal geyser]

i still have my old shoes that are falling apart

[glacial cliff]

with forced arch support

[glacial cliff]

im not familiar with the logo for the meme 😛

[tidal geyser]

arch linux btw

tis midnight

[glacial cliff]

thats not even touching on my most expensive pair yet or my 3 i wear most often

most expensive pair is the navy NWU uniform boots

[ebon marlin]

Lovely deal

[glacial cliff]

and the ones i wear msot frequently are a vionic flip flop which can be rinsed off and be fine, a shoe i bought oversees in montenegro on deployment, and a pair of crocs i was wearing when i left the appt

[hexed tapir]

I do my best not to bamboozle people

[lunar axle]

why so low price?

[ebon marlin]

Massive discount

[lunar axle]

but why would Mediamarkt do this?

[ebon marlin]

They're feeling generous

[hexed tapir]

More shoes then days of the week

I cry a bit on the inside paying $110 buying extra wide safety toe shoes

[tidal geyser]

i spend all my money on equipment to repair electronics

now i might need to spend like 800$ on stuff

[hexed tapir]

And on incorrect laptop displays

[cerulean dawn]

could anyone help me out? ive written in the tech support. would appreciate it alot

[tidal geyser]

hey at least they can be used
-# if i manage to find the right laptop

tbf 2 of my 3 panels can be used on most 15.6 laptops

the 3rd one only for X13 gen 2 3 and 4 i think so yeeeaa

and that only the rare high quality version

i hate laptop models that are both 30 and 40 pin

well not at the same time

[hexed tapir]

Rare high quality version?

[tidal geyser]

40 pin model

as in the model has to have had the higher res screen or else that screen aint gonna work

[hexed tapir]

Ah

[tidal geyser]

this time around with the broken this thing im gonna wait on ordering the new panel at least until its confirmed he delivers it to the post office

[solemn condor]

can sm1 reccomend me a cpu motherboard combo under 122

[tidal geyser]

not possible

[solemn condor]

💔

[tidal geyser]

tbh im kinda thinking about just buying it now as i am 90% sure i got the right screen

if i get it wrong this time then OBOY

[solemn condor]

do i go for a intel cpu or a ryzen

[tidal geyser]

buy used 12100f or r5 3600 combo

[glacial cliff]

ill sell u a possible slightly water damaged 5800x w/ mobo for 122

(im kidding not gonna screw over someone who doesn't know what they're getting in for)

[karmic quiver]

Hello, anyone knows if the Linux drivers for the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 are on point, I just got that GPU for my system and I am wondering about Linux compatibility, for now, I have a 9070XT, most videos I see say that it’s better for compatibility

[topaz shale]

holy shit my jitter is so low

i love having a goated router

[karmic quiver]

ChatGPT tells me that Nvidia proprietary GPU drivers are trash

[glacial cliff]

thanks for reminding me i need to get a new router from at&t

[topaz shale]

nah just get your own

ubiquiti is fire

[livid escarp]

Anyone know why Mint might not be detecting the internal ssd I put in this laptop?

[tidal geyser]

are you unhappy with the 9070 xt performance?

[midnight wind]

They're fine nowadays

[karmic quiver]

I was given the 4090

[tidal geyser]

my friends are so poor

anyhow nvidia drivers on linux are amazing

[tidal geyser]

is it mounted?

[topaz shale]

what distro are you on?

[livid escarp]

How would I go about doing that?

[tidal geyser]

cachyos

[midnight wind]

Oh wait sorry I mean the drivers are shit, you should give It to me instead

[karmic quiver]

Oh I see I will try

[karmic quiver]

Lol

[tidal geyser]

what does the file explorer say

[karmic quiver]

Arch based gaming distro

[topaz shale]

linux mfs when i ask someone else a question

[midnight wind]

bazzite

[tidal geyser]

if you say cachy i will be slightly i dono something

[tidal geyser]

fedora

[midnight wind]

or wait is cachty the one

I don't keep up to date on distros

[karmic quiver]

I run a dual boot with windows

[topaz shale]

ive been having performance issues on bazzite what should i try

[tidal geyser]

cachy is arch

[midnight wind]

window

[tidal geyser]

plenty of people come from bazzite over to cachy and have a way better time

[livid escarp]

What do you mean?

[midnight wind]

performance issues is vague though

[tidal geyser]

on mine on a different distro tho i get this

[midnight wind]

who says a different arch based distro won't have the same issue

[karmic quiver]

Try arch 🫠

[tidal geyser]

the person trying both

[topaz shale]

ill give cachy a shot

ill see if i can make a vm for it first to see if its appealing

[midnight wind]

I think it's a silly way to do things but I am not going to hate on it

[tidal geyser]

cachy make a lot of stuff that goes into other distros to help with performance

[livid escarp]

Mint has Gparted preinstalled and it can't see anything other than the usb drive that it booted from

[midnight wind]

it's too flat of an understanding of performance

[tidal geyser]

bad frame times and fps

not sure what else to say

[topaz shale]

the two main quirks of my setup are i have an nvidia gpu, and 4 monitors, and a lot of distros ive tried do not like these two things

bazzite is not that bad but it constantly rearranges my displays

but gaming performance is less than half of w10

[karmic quiver]

So the drivers are the problems ?

[solemn condor]

is a ryzen 5 5500 good

[tidal geyser]

but windows works just fine?

[ocean axle]

non't

[tidal geyser]

its about the gaming performance of a r5 3600

[solemn condor]

so i shjould just get that instead

[livid escarp]

Windows isn't installed

[tidal geyser]

is it cheaper?

[solemn condor]

pretty sure

[tidal geyser]

are you sure its not a hardware problem?

[karmic quiver]

Waiting for asahi to release on the M3/M4 chips

[topaz shale]

i suppose so

[karmic quiver]

Yeah that’s what I am scared of…

[topaz shale]

dual booting is quite easy though so im not that worried

and i save all my important info to my NAS

[karmic quiver]

Yeah ig

That’s the way

[tidal geyser]

bazzite has its issues

[topaz shale]

if i can boot from network then thats even easier, then i can rapidly test different OSes

[livid escarp]

I've tried multiple drives that work on other systems

[tidal geyser]

but nvidia also has the issue of dx12 performance issues and should be about 5-20% lower fps vs windows

[livid escarp]

I can try reseating ig

[tidal geyser]

but should be fixed soon.tm

[topaz shale]

@tidal geyser does cachy have built in JACK support / direct audio

[karmic quiver]

Bro, my company gave me a complete overkill laptop for what I do 😭

[topaz shale]

thats fire

[tidal geyser]

is that some special thing or litteraly just it being able to play audio from 3.5

[topaz shale]

nah it cuts out the OS audio processor in favor of the DAC

one feature i love in bazzite

actually allows passthrough of lossless audio

[karmic quiver]

Lol 😂 for solidworks and MatLab 😭

[topaz shale]

solidworks is on macbook?

holy shit

[glacial cliff]

sorry wrong word.

modem router 2in1*.

Please link me to where i can buy my own 2.5gig fiber modem that works on AT&T fiber

[karmic quiver]

No I have a parallels license

[topaz shale]

oh nah definitely use their modem but you can also bridge it and use your own router

[tidal geyser]

no clue if its default or not but bet as always there is a way to do so

[topaz shale]

if you arent already

[glacial cliff]

nah the modem they give doesn't allow access to the settings to bridge it

i looked into doing a piehole then later looked at adguard dns

and found out my modem locks out the setting you need to change

[topaz shale]

well pihole and other DNS is at router level. bridging your modem / router turns off its routing functions... meaning you would need a router after the modem

[glacial cliff]

yes, which the modem doesn't support doing

[topaz shale]

hmm that doesnt sound right

now one of my local ISPS disables all useful router functions, but you can still bridge it at least

i seriously doubt they removed the toggle for bridge mode

[glacial cliff]

maybe im thinking of somethign different but it was somethign to do with all this idr

and im too exhausted to re research it rn

[topaz shale]

yeah DNS is a routing function. this is usually restricted on ISP routers.

[topaz shale]

run something like this with whatever router you want, hell you can even make your own with OPNsense or PFsense

[glacial cliff]

the opnsense and pfsense stuff i remember from when i was looking into it all

and i ended up not doign any of the network wide solutiosn because of a blocked setting on the modem

[sharp ivy]

C'est trop de mémoire

[glacial cliff]

and i ended up jsut doing client side solutions

[sharp ivy]

especially in this current economy

[topaz shale]

i ran an opnsense router a couple years ago but the computer i used didnt have the performance for it, i have a UDM pro now from ubiquiti and it is amazing

[karmic quiver]

Je sais 😭 bon dommage j’ai pas eu les 128Gb

[topaz shale]

were you double routing?

[glacial cliff]

screw you at&t

[glacial cliff]

i have no idea what that is

[flat cliff]

3D modeling software like blender, any on android tablet?

[clear canyon]

good luck lol

[flat cliff]

Heard something about blender idk if its official?

Kinda wanna see if I could run one just to see.

[clear canyon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJJhVA28uws

[hexed tapir]

Do we count streaming to a PC?

[clear canyon]

I hope your tablet isnt dog shit lol

[hexed tapir]

It better be a m series chip ipad

[clear canyon]

@flat cliff

[quasi field]

Ain’t no way it’s that low

Wonder if you need a card with raytracing cores?

[flat cliff]

What you consider that?

[flat cliff]

No but I didn't think I could run anything so..

[clear canyon]

what

[tired bear]

you could try fex

[quasi field]

So you need at least a gpu that can do DX 12, 6gb vram min, and something faster than a ryzen 5 3600… so it’s possible

[flat cliff]

I wanna get into modeling have some OCs I wanna scale on my printer but idk where to start? Be nice if I could lay back on the couch like I do when drawing but idk about that?

[flat cliff]

Said tablet better not be bad, what do you consider good?

[clear canyon]

My laptop is 32gb and a 4060 so I can run stuff but if my tablet can hey that be nice.

[clear canyon]

just do the laptop

far better most likely

[flat cliff]

No its not an iPad unfortunately, so prob can't..

[hexed tapir]

The PS5 that's told will run gta6 PC equivalent is like a Ryzen 7 3700x and rx 6700 10gb non xt

[flat cliff]

Still the idea of laid back on the couch has an appeal...

[clear canyon]

bruh, you can do that with a laptop

its whole thing is being portable

[flat cliff]

Its not the same and my laptop is SO loud and heavy with very little battery life.

[quasi field]

Oh dang that’s crazy so no RT cores… very interesting… wonder if they will do software ray tracing and have like a path tracing option

[tired bear]

looks like either dead vram or dead core

[trim schooner]

I mean it was on a single vid

well

[empty quartz]

Thats a fucked gpu

[tired bear]

then video is corrupted

[trim schooner]

Usually on dark themed vids

only some tho not all

could it be a monitor issue?

[empty quartz]

Unlikely

[trim schooner]

Better be cuz ts expensive

[empty quartz]

[trim isle]

Question, planning on buying a 9070xt for my build used

[trim schooner]

the monitor was more expensive than the GPU for me

[trim isle]

What do I need to have setup before the meet

[trim schooner]

Either way wtf do I do gng

[trim isle]

I’m going from a 1650 to a 9070XT

[nimble burrow]

so i have this ugreen usb c hub that recently stopped working. Contacted support and they refunded me all is well. Now it started working again. should i buy a backup usb c hub? (will be from a different brand)

[empty quartz]

Why used?

[tired bear]

initial troubleshooting is DDU, is this nvidia or amd gpu

[trim schooner]

Amd

[midnight wind]

[trim isle]

[trim schooner]

[trim isle]

Plus the GPU market right bow

[empty quartz]

Theres nothing wrong with the gpu market

[flat cliff]

Not that I'm to sure I can run it but part of me just wants to try, what download link do I use and what are the system requirements? The link in the video for download no longer works.

[trim isle]

There indeed is

Look at prices for new GPUs

[empty quartz]

Only gpu’s that are expensive are the 5090’s

That's the same price as a 5080 now

[empty quartz]

The prices havent really changed here

[tired bear]

what

[empty quartz]

4080 ti or 5080

[tired bear]

what is the usecase

[empty quartz]

Its for my main, so mostly just gaming, and some productivity

I was considering 9070xt, but it ends up costing more since i need a waterblock, and almost nobody makes waterblocks for the 9070xt

[tired bear]

4080ti should have more die space on same process node

[empty quartz]

Wait

Im stupid, there was no 4080ti

I'm 90% sure the FTC has banned shit like this

[tired bear]

ah, you didnt cancel it so you got enrolled into 24 month contract right

[fickle ivy]

"Your plan will be suspended" fuck no it won't it's been 2 months

Literally just refusing to let me cancel it without paying

[tired bear]

report card as lost, and ignore everything from them

I'm pretty sure my bank has already cancelled the card, I need to call them I'm just too lazy

Gaming laptops are a dookie

[tired bear]

laptop gpus are also shit

Most gaming that youd do on the laptop will be just fine on cpu integrated graphic

right, this is the monitor im getting, is there any better for the same price (this is 1440p)

[tired bear]

they are compromise, just like gaming laptops are

A laptop with a igpu will be just as good if not better than a gaming laptop

Also battery life wont die in 2 hours

[fickle ivy]

$85 per month, Adobe is insane, what could that possibly even be for

I thought it was maybe a yearly subscription, nope, they seriously want $85 a month for their shitty platform

[fickle ivy]

And people wonder why pirating is so prevalent

[ocean axle]

if you need more than an iGPU, and it needs to be portable, no

[tired bear]

yes, and when you wanna game at home you plug in egpu, your monitors light up and game away with real gpu

[fickle ivy]

Atp might as well just go into CS and code my own shit so I don't have to use any companies awful platforms

[ocean axle]

you'll never be able to replace what companies make

[stray portal]

egpus also cost like as much as the laptop

Even more

[ocean axle]

theres quite literally not enough time in your life to do that

[tired bear]

150-200$ +psu and gpu you want to use

[formal sonnet]

For professional use... fine, charge something reasonable, or perhaps charge a percentage of the profits the company using your software makes. But for home use / hobbyists / students / those not making money off your software? Yeah $85 / month is not okay. Tis why I'm holding onto my copies of Lightroom Classic 5 and Adobe CS6.

But don't be like Autodesk in terms of their legal department...

"Hello, we are Autodesk legal. This is a legal demand letter to let us install closed source audit software on every computer in your network, including the Domain Controllers that nobody in their right mind would install our software on, because we believe you have pirated our software. If you do not comply we will sue you. Thank you for choosing Autodesk. Good day."

[frail sequoia]

nop

i like old tech tho

[tired bear]

what lol, we definitly use autodesk software and we are not required to do that

[formal sonnet]

Now, obviously, we don't know if OP's MSP firm or their client did/didn't, in fact, pirate Autodesk or simply mis-use it against the license terms, but to demand installation of an administrator level software program on domain joined computers without providing the source code or at least some kind of documentation for said program is a big no-no, especially if the organization has ANY data that might be considered Health or Finance related.

kernal level anti cheat tied to tpm 2.0 is why i havent bought bo7.

last time i updated a bios i bricked the OS (luckily i planend to reisntall OS right after updating BIOS) becasue i didn't know my drive was bitlocker encrypted linked to a work account for a job i no longer have because i once logged into work microsoft account on it years ago.

i aint fkin with my bios unless im reinstalling windows again.

but i have TPM 2.0 i have secure boot, i have UEFI i seriously don't get how this is failing so hard 😭

trayarch are the stupidest mf company ever, who wants to hear what moronic reason there was for it not loading

i swear to fucking god you will die of laughter

it wasn't loading, because it was running with powershell, my profile.ps1 script runs fastfetch, the output from fast fetch was not what the stupid exe was expecting so it failed

so, i need a macbook for work. simple stuff, text editing, sound and light photo editing. is 8gigs of ram enough for that? im thinking on getting a M2 Macbook air. ive only ever had more than 16 gigs and only used macs once or twice when setting them up brand new.

and i cant use windows since premiere pro aint available on windows. i get the license through the workplace.

also a bunch of private use tbh, discord, youtube and such. mostly wanna use it for when im travelling

[worn tinsel]

i mean yes but keep in mind that it's not upgradable unless you're a masochist

ideally you'd go for 16GB but in this economy you'd probably have to sell an arm and a leg

[empty quartz]

@limpid ivy i just got to hold a $7,849 cad laptop

Before tax

[keen folio]

i know but i need the cheapest one i can get. and its only gonna be used for social media as in youtube, discord and such. no hardcore stuff.

[worn tinsel]

was it a chrome book with 32 GB of DDR5 ram

[worn tinsel]

well, it'd run all of that just fine

yeah

[keen folio]

well, there are ways to upgrade it. but i have no clue and dont wanna mess with it.

cuz, yknow. Microsoldering sucks when you have no clue what ur doing

i've done it before, it's not fun if you know that's all you're going to do then yeah 8GB will be fine

I do have my gripes with all OSes but honestly since editing is a majority of my job i ain’t complaining if there’s money involved.

Yea I’ve been using that more also

Full paid studio version

Though I’ve said before different production houses/films I’ve worked on either use that, adobe, or avid so I’m forced to know all 3.

Been ages since I heard it. Still used, I just haven't seen it myself.

Also technically it is called Vegas Pro now since sony sold that to magix in 2016.

[frosty oriole]

Bruh, why did Nvidia only give me 11 GB?

[cosmic idol]

Cos that’s how they made the GPU 😔

[frosty oriole]

[cosmic idol]

Ik there is a reason behind why they made it like that but I cannot remember in this current moment

[frosty oriole]

2 GB modules were the highest capacity available, and they had those on the Titan to give it 24 GB, but if they had done the same for the 2080 Ti, it would've had 22 GB and been too close to the Titan?

[plain cypress]

[sudden rain]

may i ask wich role i need?

[plain cypress]

Since TU102 was so fucking massive, the slightly reduced memory bus may have been necessary
But ideally it would have been 384bit 12gb

[clear canyon]

so go to the ltt forum, make an account then link it to your discord and you will have it

[sudden rain]

thank you ill make an acount one moment

[clear canyon]

Ill take it

[frosty oriole]

IIRC, 80 Tis were Titans with a failed memory controller.

[plain cypress]

Which is why we ended up with 11gb

[frosty oriole]

Ye.

[frosty oriole]

And also this.

[plain cypress]

22gb would have been too much back then

[frosty oriole]

But mainly, my question was more of a rhetorical vent about how 11 GB is starting to become an issue for me more and more.

[plain cypress]

I mean it's a GPU from a different era so I wouldn't be blaming the card

[frosty oriole]

I guess so, it's still kind of annoying, though.

[sudden rain]

i have issues with artifacting and it went away after a restart but it reapears over time, i have tried a clean re install of drivers and the card is 1 month old, but for rma if they cant find a problem they will charge for it. are there things i can try or need to look into ?

[worn tinsel]

looks like a dead chip to me

typically things have a higher chance of breaking early in their life

and later in their life, if it was a 2 year old card then it would be super abnormal but since it's only a month old it might just be a dead chip

maybe memory modules aren't on there properly

could be absolutely anything, doesn't seem like a software thing but do make sure you've got the right drivers

but chances are it's just DOA

[sudden rain]

thank you yess i do, it does not apear straight away tho its only after some hours

[worn tinsel]

yeah, it gets warm and breaks

[sudden rain]

as of rn i can run furymark or 3dmark just fine after a restart

[worn tinsel]

heat makes things expand slightly

[sudden rain]

okey thank you ill just rma it then

[worn tinsel]

here for example, makes me think that there's potentially a memory issue

because you can see a lot of it but some parts are missing

[sudden rain]

yess

[worn tinsel]

and you can see things over the top of it which would indicate that it's reading nothing in memory

and conveniently, when something is not connected you'd get nothing as a return

[worn tinsel]

best idea, i mean aslong as you haven't done anything stupid to it like LN2 and overclock it or anything

they'll take it back, there is obviously something wrong, just make sure you give them the process you took to get these issues so they can recreate it

[frigid blade]

they can see if u OC right? i read something about it

[sudden rain]

it first it starts with dots of green or red and then the black boxes apear

[sudden rain]

i did fck around in the intel integrated overclocking menu

[worn tinsel]

i mean probably but in sane countries they can't void the warranty for that if they don't lock you out from doing it

[worn tinsel]

integrated graphics?

wait, is this a GPU or a CPU with an iGPU

[sudden rain]

let me make a screen intel has an integrated overclocking menu

[sudden rain]

its an gpu

the b580

[worn tinsel]

right, reset everything back to normal

also that won't void the warranty dw

[sudden rain]

yess this is normal i just oppened it to show you

[worn tinsel]

ah alright good

[worn tinsel]

did you have another GPU installed before this or is it a new build entirely?

[sudden rain]

its kind of new kind of old

i used the mobo en psu of an old build but the rest is new

[worn tinsel]

right, with your windows install

when you set it up, did you have a GPU in there already

and if so, was it the one you have currently

[sudden rain]

yes i did and no that was an gtx 970

[worn tinsel]

okay, then it might be a driver issue

[sudden rain]

i used the windows drive of the old build

[worn tinsel]

probably not from what i've seen

[sudden rain]

even if i did a full wipe and reinstall with this setup?

[worn tinsel]

no

if you reinstalled your OS with the new GPU then it won't be that

but you said you set up your windows with a GTX 970

[sudden rain]

i completely wiped windows and clean reinstalled it after some earlyer isues with the build in reset

[worn tinsel]

before or after you replaced the GPU

[sudden rain]

yes the initial instal sorry

[sudden rain]

after the new gpu

[worn tinsel]

right, nevermind then

yeah it's probably just a dead board

i'd RMA it

[sudden rain]

i will then thank you

[worn tinsel]

np, goodluck

if you're still able to return it, i'd do that and buy a replacement if you're afraid of being charged for an RMA

since returning it is free

but, if the GPU costs more now, then it might be more economical to RMA it, entirely depends on the price of things lol

[sudden rain]

yeah they raised the price after i orderd it lmao

i got it for 250 and now they charge 300 or smth

Chat I have been laid off my job yesterday

can I post my GoFundMe page in the server??

[fallow yacht]

@solemn pewter tried doing the airdrop wifi password thing and it didn't work even though i added the other phone to my contacts

[molten sleet]

What if you got another job maybe

[fallow yacht]

only worked 1 time

[steel umbra]

i believe you’re wasting time on discord, there are sites/communities dedicated for help

[wanton granite]

i'm trying to do that in the meantime

no luck so far

[wanton granite]

no luck on Twitter or Facebook or Instagram

[steel umbra]

these are not dedicated for charity

[glossy veldt]

jesse, we're going to mcdonalds jesse

[steel umbra]

then go to physical places if they exist in your country and request the things you need to save money

expect essentials only

[wanton granite]

We don't have a program that can help you pay rent though

[steel umbra]

you won’t find that

at most you’ll get some clothing, food, towels

better than nothing, you won’t have to pay for them atleast

my risky tip would be reselling things at real discount from china and selling it slightly below retail prices on marketplaces

[glossy veldt]

crash at friends house until job

[steel umbra]

a good value brand new phone with appropriate specs that you get at 30-40% discount, sell it for 15% profit, it pays around 5-10euros/h if you know how hardware works

and how good you are at searching bargains

[wanton granite]

I don't have money to ship phones

[steel umbra]

do you live remotely?

[wanton granite]

and they are crazy expensive in Jamaica

[steel umbra]

have people walk up to you or strike a convo where to meet

[wanton granite]

yes

in a crime filled place

bus fare is needed all the time when I go on the road because of how dangerous things are

[steel umbra]

anyways, you’re wasting time begging on social media sorry

if i were to have instead of give a penny for every person that begged me ever i’d have actually just 20 pennies

i assume they didn’t get financial support when they ask desperately, i’d give them if there weren’t people out there that need it even more

i prioritize waste management as of charities, trash in the oceans is not good, it affects people that eat the fish but mostly that plankton dies out from the pollution

you know, the thing that produces the most amount of oxygen

and i find collecting trash with those ocea garbage clankers stupid

it’s cheaper and more efficient to hold the trash before disposing of it into the ocean than collecting it once it’s already in the ocean

you’ll not find me giving a single penny to clean up the oceans or to plant trees, at most donate to waste management or recycling which then don’t dispose to the oceans atleast as much, and if i had the money i’d buy existing forests

[clear canyon]

bruh, find another job, dont beg random ppl for money

[steel umbra]

and i’m also not a fan of electric cars or batteries if they’re not used, mining sites for the materials create horrendous conditions for it’s workers and also destroys the environment

[clear canyon]

I dont like e cars, but I do like ebikes

[steel umbra]

i don’t understand eu trying to basicly entirely ban combustion vehicles

you know they can be efficient in certain scenarios, especially if they’re not utilized heavily

it feels like greenwashing

eu is carbin neutral meanwhile in africa and south america mining sites make big ‘ol deforested holes in the ground

using combustion vehicles ofc

we haven’t even properly explored rotary vanes which are in theory much more efficient than cylinders/pistons

[raven scroll]

I think I abused my mouse too much

Now it needs to be recharged every hour

But apparently it’s supposed to have up to 95 hours of battery life

sup

[pulsar root]

With today’s technology, could really old gpus like a gt 710 be made really tiny; perhaps the size of a watch or a usb?

[azure topaz]

i mean no because then it wouldn’t be a gt710 anymore

it’d be some chip with equal graphical capabilities

[pulsar root]

Yeah this I meant

[azure topaz]

your question is obvious then

[midnight wind]

could you take the actual circuit design of the old gpu and literally just zoom it down to what's possible with modern lithography techniques

That'd be the closer question I believe

[pulsar root]

Yeah ^ that’s kinda what I was getting at

So you can make like a miniature pc

[azure topaz]

done countless times

[midnight wind]

Obviously it'd be a lot worse than just making a small GPU today

[midnight wind]

wher

[azure topaz]

aside from the circuitry part which is useless and dumb, you described a node shrink like rx 470 to rx 570

it’s the same gpu but slightly smaller node

[midnight wind]

wdym by "circuitry part which is useless and dumb"

[azure topaz]

making the cards slightly more efficient and therefore cheaper to make because they draw less power

(cheaper coolers, worse pcbs/power delivery)

[grim idol]

Tips would be appreciated and mouse suggestions

[azure topaz]

if x gpu on x pcb performs the same as on a different pcb with a different layout, does it matter?

[clear canyon]

tips for what

[grim idol]

On setup and

[clear canyon]

get a better cpu cooler

[grim idol]

Mouse recommendations bc this model o is cheap and flimsy

[grim idol]

Should i get one that displays the temp?

[midnight wind]

I assumed the question was just out of curiosity, not to literally produce something better than what we have now

[clear canyon]

no

[midnight wind]

so I took it to mean make the literal exact same GPU but on a smaller node

[grim idol]

And i have an issue with my lighting idk why its yellow in the front

[spark lichen]

so uh,on a new PC my CPU is spiking to like 80-90c when downloading something not even playing... do i gotta reapply my thermal paste? or is that normal

[rigid fjord]

we've already had igpu's that equate to a gt1030, gtx1630 , rtx 3050 and rtx 3060 already and they're smaller than what the cores are for the actual dgpu's

[formal sonnet]

Nah, spend the money on a better cooler, not a tiny screen.

[azure topaz]

i get it but the answer just stays the same for the most part

it’s been done but not in the said literal sense, at least often

[midnight wind]

Yeah, but that wasn't really what I was thinking

[azure topaz]

it’s possible but there is no point yes

[midnight wind]

the answer is yes but it would be idiotic

[grim idol]

Any suggestions?

[azure topaz]

yeah this

i mean amd proved it with the 470 to 570. it’s the same card

[formal sonnet]

Sure. This or any affordable Noctua air cooler with 120mm fans.

[rigid fjord]

there's also laptop's with the dgpu die on the same pcb as the cpu die doing the same thing yet 2 different brands, i.e. intel cpu + nvidia gpu

[azure topaz]

and nobody really cared that it was any more efficient

[rigid fjord]

still works out smaller than what you see on a desktop dgpu

[azure topaz]

(it’s amds fault rx 400 was inefficient anyways)

[rigid fjord]

460 + 560/480+580 also no?

[azure topaz]

well yeah i just chose one for example

on phone i didn’t want to type much 💀

[rigid fjord]

ah, my bad then

fair enough

[azure topaz]

and a bunch of their other old cards

they literally did it 3 gens in a row

7970=280x=380x

[rigid fjord]

more than once now

[midnight wind]

when i look up both the 470 and 570 it says they're both Ellesmere at 14nm

[rigid fjord]

i mean 9060xt = 7700xt = 6800

sure the architecture might be a little different, but the performance be the same

[rigid fjord]

because they are

[topaz shale]

for the mouse; what kind of games do you play? do you have a preferred mouse shape? also would HIGHLY recommend a mousepad

[midnight wind]

so how does that fit the question of making the same gpu but on a smaller lithography

seems like its just a gpu that they clocked differently

[raven scroll]

[gritty panther]

[spark lichen]

What is a program I can run to check cpu thermals bc this is worrying. Idk if I put too little paste or what

[fierce breach]

For those who are into BGA check out this perfect reball i did on dp855a (direct heat method)

[warm sun]

hey guys anyone has a solution for this? like my laptop is overheating i5 13420h and i cant undervolt its disabled for intel 13th gen so what to do now?

[fierce breach]

upgrade thermal compound

but also beware doing that may make the chassis hotter to the point of discomfort

A lot of laptops aren't designed with optimal heat transfer in mind

[warm sun]

bro i did everything like my cpu for first 30-45sec goes 4.5ghz+ then hits 95-99degree and goes back to 1.6ghz and this goes in cycles i have hp omen and it never stops

[fierce breach]

In power settings try changing max load or whatever its called to 99%

Its an old fix but sometimes works

[warm sun]

you also have a gaming laptop?

[fierce breach]

No, I've just fixed a lot of them

I work in repair

[warm sun]

why tf intel blocked undervolt even on h series like atleast they should have known like someobdy is saying due to some plundervolt thing they stopped it?

how many guys you think who buy a gaming laptop face overheating or throttling?

or is it me only

[fierce breach]

Intel didn't block it, odm didn't implement it

They sell it with the expectation of "it just works"

[warm sun]

like is it me who faces this throttle problem overheating like my device is like this or many other people face this?

[fierce breach]

Depends on your laptop model

And also assuming your cpu isn't defective

[warm sun]

out of 100 user how much people face overheating or throttle nowadays during gaming at high settings or video editing or doing ai ml or intense work on laptop? any idea

[sudden rain]

May I ask for some more help?

[fierce breach]

That I can't answer, and I think you're asking the wrong question

[sudden rain]

My m.2 nvme is read as an bdp drive

[warm sun]

?

[sudden rain]

Does someone know how i can fix that?

[warm sun]

asked chatgpt ? or a indian guy video 5 year ago?

[fierce breach]

What I'm saying is if cpu load limit doesnt fix it at this point, you probably have a defective laptop

[sudden rain]

Yeah no clear answers or bios videos with settings I dont even have

And the fun thing is in my bios the drive is under nvme

[warm sun]

like i have seen 3-4 gaming laptops 1 is mine and other 3 are mny friends and all laptops overheat and throttle after 1.5hr+ session

[fierce breach]

Make sure CSM/Legacy support is disabled

And if possible, make sure your M.2 slot is set to NVMe mode

[fierce breach]

Okay that's fairly common

Laptops run hot

[sudden rain]

Csm should be disabled? Let me look into that

[fierce breach]

Yes

You want UEFI for any new install

[warm sun]

yeah finalk solution switch to desktop better per dollar performance and no heat no jet noise

[fierce breach]

And you want to convert to it on any old one if possible

[winter lantern]

csm like chainsaw man

[fierce breach]

https://tenor.com/view/shock-shocker-shocked-black-guy-gif-27526370

[sudden rain]

Nah

[warm sun]

bruhh nowdays these chainsaw man fans everywhere
