I don't think I'm gonna do the whole ceiling, the main objective was to eliminate acoustic reflections and the muddy reverb from the subwoofer

(And to suppress my autistic screaming ass when I'm on voice with people)

ngl there's only like 10 panels not hung at this point

[grizzled frost]

those panels aren't ideal for absorbing the lowest base frequencies

Obviously better than what most people do, but there are better panels for that

[left dove]

no but they cut down on the muddiness from the sub vibrating desk panels

[grizzled frost]

As always, a pretty good solution is still better than no solution

I would hang acoustic panelling, but parents vetoed it

can't really complain, they already tolerate a lot of my shenanigans

[next adder]

i need help quick. i have waited for 2 days and still have the same problem. When i open Call of Duty from steam it says launching then it never launches and it doesnt say anything ever. the blue launching button just goes back to green play

[grizzled frost]

#1027757333117415424

[left dove]

sounds like you need to google

[next adder]

i have watched all the indian fix videos😬

[cold skiff]

There’s about 20 call of duty games

[left dove]

my guess is its the latest one because its like $5 rn

[cold skiff]

Still not worth buying

[next adder]

the game is literally called just Call of Duty. its like the HQ with Warzone

[left dove]

oh ew its the warzone version

yeah i dont care enough

[cold skiff]

Are you using a potato pc

[next adder]

mw2019 wont work if that one doesnt work

[next adder]

rtx 3060 12gb i5 13th gen 32gb ddr5

[cold skiff]

Is it using drm or kernel level anticheat

[next adder]

cod?

[cold skiff]

Yes

[next adder]

Yes, the Ricochet Anti-Cheat system uses a kernel-level driver on PC to monitor and manage software interacting with Call of Duty titles. It operates at a high privilege level to detect, report, and combat sophisticated cheating software. The driver only runs when the game is active and shuts down when you exit

[cold skiff]

Usually games that can’t hook in then shutdown before launch

Yep the hook has a conflict

Delete and reinstall

[next adder]

what can cause that it doesnt work? some people said riot ac

[cold skiff]

That’s always the first step

[next adder]

i did it thats why it took me 2 days. it takes 19h to install

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/cod-fish-marine-fish-seafood-underwater-gif-20779579

[next adder]

i can't even delete valorant because the riot client is buns

[cold skiff]

The second step is then find the conflict

[next adder]

i hate that game

[next adder]

how?

[robust minnow]

Bullcrap uninstaller or revo?

[next adder]

revo is good

[robust minnow]

Yeah

I actually need to replace my unc of a gpu

[hallow jasper]

BCU is 🐐

[next adder]

?

[cold skiff]

Your gpu is younger than 2 of my kids

Oh wait it’s not you that has the 3060 my bad

[robust minnow]

My titan x pascal

[cold skiff]

Oh that’s almost as old as me

[robust minnow]

Jitt

[cold skiff]

And I have more grey hairs than toes

[next adder]

so what does that mean

[cold skiff]

There is literally no point in that top back fan if it’s exhaust

[robust minnow]

It's just a long tube of fans

[cold skiff]

Very little point in that or the rear fan tbfh

[robust minnow]

Yeah..

[cold skiff]

That rear fan must make more noise than a jet engine

[robust minnow]

Have you seen the one under my gpu fan

[cold skiff]

Oh yeah but that’s probably 20% viable

You would be better off swapping that rear fan out for it

[robust minnow]

Ish

It helps a lot with temps

[cold skiff]

Like the pressure your cpu third fan pushes out no point in rear. The size of the bottom one, just use that there and give it some actual flow. As fans move air conically you’re not gaining much at all with how fat it is

[next adder]

lets see if it worked

[cold skiff]

The front bottom fan is kind of void also. Holy shit that’s one hell of a bad fan config

I haven’t seen anything that bad in years

[robust minnow]

I get all my fans out of old computers

[robust minnow]

The fan below the gpu is older than you

[cold skiff]

Doubtful

[robust minnow]

2009...

[cold skiff]

I was 21 in 2009

[robust minnow]

Oh

Oldhead

[next adder]

still no... i uninstalled all riot stuff and disabled the core isolation thing and restarted my pc and still it wont work... it works when i install from xbox app but i dont have the games bought from that so its useless

[robust minnow]

The fan config isn't that bad guys

[cold skiff]

It’s a drm issue then

[next adder]

drm?

[cold skiff]

Digital rights management

[next adder]

how is it issue from that

[cold skiff]

Well if it’s not launching on 1 platform but does on another, it’s not authenticating

[soft pendant]

Has anyone tried lossless scaling on a second gpu without frame gen and found an improvement with just upscale? I have a 2080 super and wondering if I can use my old 1060 to run upscaling with LS rather than dlss and get more frames. Not interested in frame gen tho which seems to be what most articles and videos cover.

[mellow sonnet]

i have a 1650 that i could technically use for the same thing but i dont have lossless scaling

[next adder]

how do i fix. i tried different secureboot and different xmp

[cold skiff]

That’s a hard pass from me

I don’t have the foggiest idea

[main reef]

LTT should sell tcg cards 🙂

Do a couple what nots you know

Get on what not

[past gale]

I’m looking to upgrade my GPU to run newer games, specifically Arma Reforger. I built my pc many years ago and thought this would be a good place to get some insight from people that know alot more about the subject than myself.

Specs-
Motherboard- Asus Prime B350M-A
CPU- Ryzen 5 1600 (6 Cores)
Ram- 16gb ddr4
GPU- GeForce GTX 1050ti 4gb gddr5
PSU- Corsair VS450

[sinful cobalt]

How do you know if you need to upgrade just the GPU?

[past gale]

It’s an old graphics card I haven’t tried overclocking it but I get a solid 25fps in arma at empty bases 😂

[sinful cobalt]

both ur cpu and gpu need upgrading

[past gale]

Any recommendations?

[ebon marlin]

Tuff wallpaper

[sinful cobalt]

CPU: get a 5500X3D if possible, otherwise 5600X/5700X

GPU: Get a 5060 or 9060XT 16gb

[grizzled frost]

[past gale]

Rip any other recs I saw a posting for a ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 3070-O8G GDDR6

I’m just trying to run the game at 1080p -1440p at 60 or higher fps

It was like $250 I think

[sinful cobalt]

if you want to get used at least get a 3080

[median warren]

I wouldn't recommend 8gb vram cards in the big 2026 although if you're primarily and ONLY playing on 1080p, it can still very much work

So yeah try to get something with at least 12gb of vram but there's some 16gb gpus out there for good prices

Imo 9060xt being one of them

[sinful cobalt]

what game would he be playing on a 1600 that’ll torture 8gb vram rather than the CPU first

[cold skiff]

8gb in the big 2026. Dlss5 probaly gonna use that on its own

[median warren]

Oh right, well I was just talking about GPU upgrades here

But yeah cpu upgrade is needed here too

Just a 5600 would provide much better performance already

[median warren]

You're joking but there's some truth to that unfortunately

[safe remnant]

can anyone recommend a dual mode monitor?
Prefer 27 inch with 1440p + 240Hz HD or anything higher
budget is 300 USD

[sinful cobalt]

dual modes are rare just get a 1440p 240hz ips

[safe remnant]

isnt its a new tech that growing in popularity?

[narrow lance]

guys is getting 83 celsius during chinebench stress test multi core normal for a 7 9800x3d with a 360mm aio or do i need to worry?

[safe remnant]

currently i have a Acer 1440p 120hz
but its so noob
hz not high enought then 1440p cant run well with RTX 4070
so a dual mode would help alot

[narrow lance]

would really appriciate it if someone could help me with this question

[random snow]

is hard disk sentinel a good way to measure the health of a drive?

[safe remnant]

83 C is pretty decent i would say
i get like 80+ when gaming with my 5700X3D with deepcool AK 400 digital cooler

[safe remnant]

u can use both HDD sentinal and crystral disk info
i forget which are for SSD and which are for HDD
but u can use both

[fickle valley]

Are Mac users dumb on purpose

[narrow lance]

yea but im noticing very high cpu temps in the range of 86 celsius when for an example playing hunter call of the wild whilst my cpu usage is only at around 40%

[fickle valley]

I genuinely wanna know because a guy said that mac's are the best laptops everywhere and anywhere you put them

[random snow]

🧐 ❗ ❓

I have 1 day left

[fickle valley]

Oof

Status perfect
Remaining life 1 day

Lol

[cold skiff]

145tb written

Sounds like it’s almost dead

[safe remnant]

sometimes its a hit or miss
but u should start preparing for it
like get a spare drive or back up if u have important data there

[cold skiff]

It’s not hit or miss. The nand has a maximum amount of lifetime writes. He’s probably maximum 150 hence the almost dead status

[hallow jasper]

Your first question and your follow up statement have nothing to do with eachother. Just say you don't agree with them and move on. Macbooks are objectively better than lots of other options for a lot of people. Doesn't mean you have to buy one.

[fickle valley]

I said to him 500 times

[cold skiff]

Battery life, video and camera stuff

They’re just not gaming machines basically everything else they can do

[fickle valley]

These machines are made for different purpose

[cold skiff]

Not really

[hallow jasper]

So you're intentionally arguing with them over opinions? And you're concerned that their dumb?

You can't make this stuff up.

[random snow]

How do I move windows to my other drive?

[cold skiff]

Mac’s are all purpose

Just not gaming

[fickle valley]

Bro starts an argument that he is too uneducated to continue starts insulting me and I'm the bad guy

I have a problem with that

[safe remnant]

its highjly recommend u dont clone drive , because driver issue and etc
move ur document or important data to spare drive
then use ur new SSD , format it in windows , then use a pendrive as a installer to install back ur windows

[fickle valley]

I said that they are decent machines

[hallow jasper]

Are you asking for tips on how to argue with someone? What exactly are you asking

[safe remnant]

u can clone storage drive , but OS drive is tricky

[fickle valley]

Forget about it

[hallow jasper]

Ditto.

[sleek remnant]

The woz is unimpressed

[obtuse yew]

We banning all foreign made routers ig

Is there even a single company who makes routers entirely in the us?

[bold olive]

wait what

'foreign routers' as in routers outside the us?

(god i spelt foreign 6 times wrong)

[obtuse yew]

No, any router produced outside the us will stop recieving firmware updates in a year

For "security"

[bold olive]

as if banning huawei isnt good enough (using their laptop as we speak)

well ubiquiti is from the us

[grizzled frost]

POTUS is going to quickly realize the US doesn't have the manufacturing capabilities to fulfill demand without the foreign manufacturing

[obtuse yew]

It is more of an issue because as far as I can tell, no companies make routers entirely in the us, so they have less than a year to switch manufacturing over here when there is literally no infrastructure to support it

[bold olive]

defcon 1 for local manufacturing fulfilling demand

literally this is what came out of my mind when i hear potus

[bold olive]

uh

[obtuse yew]

The security excuse is probably a bunch of bs anyways because the government doesn't have to comply with it, same with certain companies who can obtain a whitelist

[bold olive]

imagine having no rog wifi router in the us 😭

i mean its just a flex item at this point

[obtuse yew]

True

the only advantage I have seen with those is that the software is easy to set up and use

[bold olive]

oh my god

so if taiwan/china invents wifi 8 they cant access them unless they have to somehow locally make it

[jaunty apex]

Im gonna go ahead and make a quick assumption that openwrt is exempt

[gaunt spade]

[gaunt spade]

if it supports 5000 series 5800x3d for gaming

[pure trellis]

I mean, AMD need to do absolutely nothing for a year, I am more about that part

[gaunt spade]

270k isnt faster than the 9800x3d

[grizzled frost]

10% worse average FPS at 1080p

[pure trellis]

14900k is faster than 270,but anyway

[grizzled frost]

Not in gaming, it isn't

[abstract wigeon]

the fragile tape was useful

[gaunt spade]

ew 14900k

[grizzled frost]

270k edges out the 14900k whilst costing far less, and consuming less power

i still wouldnt buy 270k cuz dead platform

[grizzled frost]

what do you mean

[pure trellis]

Or AMD finally gave up releasing new CPUs for it?

[solid tundra]

i have a microphone connected to my audio interface (tascam us-1x2) using an xlr cable and the microphone can sometimes work well but randomaly just stops working out of nowhere

[pure trellis]

Check cables

It's always cables with xlr

[grizzled frost]

xlr works just fine if you use them correctly

IE fully seating the connector so the clip latches fully

[solid tundra]

i dont think its the xlr because when it stops working the indicator on the audio interface still works

[molten sleet]

What application is this happening in

[grizzled frost]

check USB cable

it uses the wack ass USB-B connector

[solid tundra]

i think i only have 1 cable of those

since theses are barley used

[grizzled frost]

they were super common a decade ago

[solid tundra]

i have tascam us-1x2 settings panel but it seems to work with and without it

[pure trellis]

Is XLR plug in in amp?

[grizzled frost]

what

the thing has 1 XLR input

[molten sleet]

But where are you noticing the signal loss, if people can’t hear you in discord it could be software related, if it’s happening pro tools or smth then that’s something else entirely

You said that the indicator still lights up so it’s probably not the xlr, mic, or interface

[fringe prairie]

“new” and it’s just another rebranded zen3 sku

its not that since it also stops working everywhere else on the computer

[molten sleet]

What sample rate are you using

[solid tundra]

that works but the problem will just occur later on

[solid tundra]

whats that?

[spiral cradle]

Hot ask for opinions. Playing CPU intensive game like Squad and also want to stream on twitch at certain quality of 1080p.

I have 7800X3D right now with a 4070 ti.

GPU is hella expensive as always. Would upgrading to either 9900X3D or 9950X3D be helping the streaming issue?

[grizzled frost]

what streaming issue

[spiral cradle]

frame drops

[molten sleet]

Basically the resolution of the data, I remember I had issues in windows setting it to 48000 so I typically leave mine at 44.1, should be something in the tascam’s control panel to adjust this

[grizzled frost]

whats the average and whats the 1% lows

[grizzled frost]

USB2.0, so there is a notable bandwidth limit

[elfin echo]

All i ever need.

[pure trellis]

Before committing to anything, just try to switch servers to streaming

[grizzled frost]

having dark souls 3 take up two spaces whilst portal 2 is by itself on it's own row is weird

[molten sleet]

Iirc it wasn’t bandwidth that was the issue just that some apps don’t really know what to do with the higher sample rate. My interface has usb 3 and it was still having issues

[versed ferry]

They released angry birds on ps3?

[pure trellis]

Oh,angry birds were ported to consoles

[elfin echo]

dont have the cover for dark souls 2

so i put it as 2

[elfin echo]

1080p hd textures 🤑

[solid tundra]

where do i change that

[pure trellis]

Interesting

[grizzled frost]

"should be something in the tascam’s control panel to adjust this"

[spiral cradle]

Oh no. The feed is seemingly fine. It's giving a small fps stutter in-game and also affecting OBS. So I highly doubt just going from Frankfurt to something else would do

[elfin echo]

And DD 5.1

[versed ferry]

While I don't believe I'll ever actually go back and play GTA V on PS3/XBOX360 I will say there are some cool things about it on the original consoles compared to PS4/PS5/XBONE/Xbox Series X and PC. There a few interesting videos about it on Youtube, it had some things on those consoles it didn't have on later releases. It's sad, some of the stuff was quite cool.

[pure trellis]

Just try

[solid tundra]

its at 96kHz but i doesnt seem like i can change that

[elfin echo]

Ps3 and its native linux support

[molten sleet]

I think this is a good place to start, we can try to figure out how to adjust this then go from there

[versed ferry]

They patched that out after the US military started buying a bunch of them to make a cheap super computer

[elfin echo]

No that wasnt a problem

The problem as piracy 🙁

[pure trellis]

Iran military,not US

They were mad about the military thing though because they sell the consoles at a loss.

where do i go from here?

[versed ferry]

In November 2010, the Air Force Research Laboratory created a powerful supercomputer, nicknamed the "Condor Cluster", by connecting together 1,760 processors with 168 GPUs and 84 coordinating servers in a parallel array capable of 500 trillion floating-point operations per second (500 TFLOPS).[22] As built, the Condor Cluster was the 33rd largest supercomputer in the world and was used to analyze high definition satellite imagery at a cost of only one tenth that of a traditional supercomputer

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_3_cluster

33rd most powerful

[south arrow]

Frigging military miners kek

[grizzled frost]

i love how this counted as a supercomputer at one point in time

[elfin echo]

[grizzled frost]

now that's just the average server room of a homelabber

[ocean axle]

Also yesn't

[grizzled frost]

how is it gonna do multicore with one core

[elfin echo]

theres cores inside the core 😠

[grizzled frost]

this ain't inception

https://tenor.com/view/inception-gif-5462295792685955134

[pure trellis]

You stretching definition of CPU with ps3

[grizzled frost]

then the solution is just "nah man, more drugs"

[elfin echo]

4th dimension is real

[ocean axle]

It's got SMT2, and also the SPEs exist

[south arrow]

Youre not wrong

[versed ferry]

Intel couldn't even give me regular cores, they had to give me P cores and E cores. Cheap ass knock off cores

[ocean axle]

Also the PS4 has more fp64 afaik

[elfin echo]

sony, ibm amd toshiba made ps3 cpu 😭

Ig intel or amd wasnt good enough for them

[molten sleet]

Search “change system sounds” in windows then select your interface from the list under ‘playback’. In the advanced tab you can also see your sample rate here

[ocean axle]

So it's a big bag of yesn't on what's actually faster

[pure trellis]

Yes, it's called time

[rigid fjord]

always more alcohol

[solid tundra]

?

[south arrow]

Somewhere outside of the perceived that we revolve around, spinning, wobbling, spiraling past thousands of forces possible within a black hole tube but also maybe not. But if that tube between two spaces can be made into a vortex puncturing space and time mayhaps, if perceived beyond that tunnel

[versed ferry]

Honestly it's crazy how powerful the PS3 CPU is. The fact that the PS4 technically had a less powerful CPU is crazy. Just a shame that developers had issues developing for it early on. To be fair Gabe Newell was a big force pushing that narrative, but even he changed his tune after they figured it out.

[molten sleet]

I’m not seeing anything for the sample rate here, what about the other two tabs?

[ocean axle]

The PS4 can also offload a lot more work to the GPU, which is a lot faster

[pure trellis]

I mean,fat ps3 was 800$

[elfin echo]

Ps3 gpu is bottleneck 1000 i swear

[ocean axle]

The ps3 wasn't going to have a GPU, that's why

[versed ferry]

Now GPUs are fat and cost $800

[solid tundra]

nothing in the first page either

[pure trellis]

800$ in 2006

[rigid fjord]

why not use obs?

[solid tundra]

how exactly

I'm just going to develop my own GPU by copying everything Nvidia is doing. Can't sue me for my personal use copyright infringement.

Just need a light to shine through all that lithography

[pure trellis]

I mean,good luck to buying at TSMC nowadays

[molten sleet]

@solid tundrahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eKxPajhZ2E

[pure trellis]

Or in next decade

[molten sleet]

obs wont fix his issue here

[rigid fjord]

image from google, but also points you in a direction for it

[pure trellis]

TSMC should be booked until 2050 or so

[versed ferry]

Here's a cursed early Star Wars photo of Luke wearing Han's pants and using Leia's blaster. Fucking womp rat thief.

[rigid fjord]

he's streaming his audio, and having an issue of where it's being detected while also having an output issues?

also changing to 96khz when it comes to the bitrates not going to fix it realistically

[south arrow]

To conclude this thought maybe the 4th dimension is time itself if it where considered to be one with itself

[tranquil cipher]

What are the best things to change in Networkconnections under advanced?

[rigid fjord]

usb B or micro/mini B?

Upgrading from HD 650 to this :

[molten sleet]

@rigid fjord no he's losing singal regardless of the software or application. he's still getting a signal from his mic to his interface (we know this bc of an indicator on the interface) and the interface doesn't stop communicating with his pc (as the device would show as disconnected). his sample rate is basically maxed out which can cause issues with windows because of a mismatch with some applications so I think we have to change it from overkill 96khz to a more resonable 44.1

[grizzled frost]

USB-B

[south arrow]

Another funny thought if I used a time machine to go back to the very place in the cosmos but a few hundred years in either direction would I even be on the planet if my position where to unchange and simply phase me to be

Due to us spiraling around the sun as it travels and our change in cosmic positions

[solid tundra]

yeah it has nothing to do with my problem

[molten sleet]

how do you mean

[rigid fjord]

hmm, in that case there's a setting in audio properties per device that allows apps to take priority over specific output/inputs if enabled

[solid tundra]

i watched the video and its not a frequency problem that i have

[versed ferry]

The sun is also orbiting around the center of the galaxy and the galaxy itself is moving towards Andromeda. We're moving 230-300 km/s

[versed ferry]

So even one second of time travel (assuming you don't move with the earth) means you'd be 230 km from the earth at best

[south arrow]

Its very fun thought. Almost feels complex and intentional in a planetary force kinda way

[molten sleet]

i kinda disregarded the frequency issue the video talks about as the focus is changing the sample rate through the windows sound control panel

[rigid fjord]

@solid tundracheck to see if this box is ticked or not

[solid tundra]

it is

[rigid fjord]

it's a setting that can sometimes cause issues

[south arrow]

Right, and apparently time dilation is a real thing but also complicated in practice

Curious non the less, robots that live thousands of years will have quite the observations as we evolve or so im hoping. Next few generations of man should learn quite some fun things of how the cosmos move and work

[solid tundra]

so should i disable it

Hello guys,

I have GIGABYTE 1660 Super OC Dual Fan, I got this in used condition, It's worked great for 2 weeks, today i turned on my PC and on all my screens there were artifacts, then there was a white screen and a gray screen but windows was running it did not reboot, I did try to drop Memory Clock and Core Clock which did fix it slightly.

I did reset the memory clock and core clock now the card works fine even on stock settings, Played DOTA 2 on ultra settings, CS2, Kombustor Stress Test, do you think it's permanent damage or just a temporary issue?

[gaunt spade]

ultra series was never too popular anyway

[simple dagger]

Now i understand why my studies recommend a minimum of 16GB RAM and a recommended of 32GB lul

[grizzled frost]

because it wasn't performant, now it is

[grizzled frost]

you know there's a screenshot function in windows right?

[frigid blade]

I mean, this doesn’t show what’s using so much

Windows will use more if there’s more available

If you had less, it would use less

[clear pebble]

I get i have 4gb of ram on this lap top but jeez can it not be 89 to 92 utilization, any way to lower it a bit?

[frigid blade]

Well I’ll ask this first, are you ok with a reinstall?

If you reinstall with something like IoT Ent LTSC, it will idle with less usage

But that requires some shenanigans if you don’t want to pay for the license (they’re safe but not exactly noob friendly, most people don’t like running random commands)

[clear pebble]

I wouldn't mind trying that, but I would need to see a yt vid probably to see and understand it better

[frigid blade]

I could walk you through, but it would have to be later

[winter lantern]

||Bro really combined it was all a dream and it was the friends we made along the way ||

[outer gorge]

Any good optimization video I could use? I want to milk everything from my Ryzen 7 9800x3D and RTX 5070, I want low latency and great performance, idc about looks

[clear pebble]

Why does it keep deleting my pictures?

[frigid blade]

I ran a laptop with an i7-4600U and 8GB LPDDR3X and it would run smooth on 11 IoT Ent LTSC, could do basic stuff

[frigid blade]

Are you sending any caps?

If there’s too many capital letters it deletes the whole message

If not, you should have a DM why it was deleted from the bot

[clear pebble]

No. But I have 4 pictures im trying to send.

I was thinking maybe a new laptop instead and I liked two options

This was option 1

And this is option 2

I just wanted to show what it looks like and the specs to see what yall thought

[fringe prairie]

if you need battery life 2
if you need performance 1

2in1 hinges won’t be good tho

[clear pebble]

I see, well I usually have my pc plugged in so maybe option 1

Tho if money is an issue I did like this one.

Isn't too bad for the price imo but its integrated G

[fickle valley]

atp i would look at a macbook neo

although i dont really like macbooks

[frigid blade]

What do you do on the laptop

[fickle valley]

the ideapads are pure garbage

[clear pebble]

I have saw this, but only 8gb ram, no gpu and has cooling problems

[fickle valley]

avoid

[frigid blade]

Because those are overkill if it’s basic browsing

[clear pebble]

Asking me?

[frigid blade]

Yah

[fringe prairie]

the 3 and 5 are bad
slim 5 and pro 5 are good

[fickle valley]

yea the aluminum ones are ok

[fringe prairie]

rather used thinkpad/eb instead ngl

[frigid blade]

I’m waiting for panther lake for my next laptop

I want that efficiency and iGPU

[clear pebble]

Ah, well I have my laptop for college that I used for cad work, 3d printing slicing and homework and browsing yes, I was also hoping to gain some extra performance to play games while im out and I finish my hw early and I get bored bc I dont go home I just wait the 5 hours till my next class

[frigid blade]

What are your current specs?

[fickle valley]

isnt like cad and 3d stuff on macos a pain in the arse

[frigid blade]

Maybe in the past, a lot of stuff is web based now

[fringe prairie]

fusion runs fine

[clear pebble]

64gb of storage, 4gb 3200mt/s ram
Intel i5 1035G1

Literal Ewaste

[fringe prairie]

or onshape

[tulip sparrow]

https://www.destructoid.com/epic-games-ceo-blames-industry-wide-challenges-for-1000-plus-layoffs/

[frigid blade]

Did it run your cad stuff ok?

[clear pebble]

A bit, but was lagging at times

And 3d slicing took a while, I have a main pc i have at home that I built and I do that mainly now there but it was nice when I did it while at school and didnt have to wait since I 3d print a lot of parts for my cosplays

[frigid blade]

Trying to see performance on some different CPUs

Because I have an i7-1185G7 with 16GB ram, and I’m pretty sure even that would be a significant upgrade to what you had

And it was $150 (although it was used)

[clear pebble]

Can it play games like armored core, and titanfall?

Bc i do want to play my desktop games on the go, which is why if I should suffer and stick with this laptop and buy a steam deck or Lenovo legion one, idk tho

[frigid blade]

It’s definitely more entry level but the iGPU is much better

[marble agate]

how much could I oc a ryzen 5 5600x with a x370 killer sli/ac? I heard its a really good oc motherboard

[clear pebble]

Man I wish i knew about oc stuff.

My mom did get a brand new Walmart laptop for around 250 with a decent display and cpu, no igpu but the ram can be changed, has 8gb but I added 16gb for her so maybe I could get that one, then again a nice display would be nice

[frigid blade]

It’s a lot of meticulous work

[empty quartz]

Its pain

[frigid blade]

Small change, post, boot, benchmark, repeat

[empty quartz]

I used to be decent at overclocking my r9 290, and then its vram died

[clear pebble]

Yeah I've heard, but I have a ryzen 7 5800xt on my desktop so im good for now.

[empty token]

hi guys i want to glue something to my case but i'm not sure where the best place to do it is. i wanted to glue some lace fabric onto the glass panel (specifically where these little black bars are) but i'm not 100% sure if thats the best option

[empty quartz]

Just dont glue

[clear pebble]

Show a picture

[clear pebble]

I mean you could if its hot glue, that sticks well to glass and if you hate it just peal

[empty quartz]

Peal

[empty token]

here!! and yes i was going to use hot glue bcuz i think its the smartest option

it'll just be on the outside

[empty quartz]

What is with people and stickers

[empty token]

i like them

[clear pebble]

I'd say its fine, but what exactly are you trying to do again, im trying to envision it in my head but cant

[gaunt spade]

fortnut

[empty token]

i have this strip of white lace trim, i wanted to glue it onto my glass panel bcuz i think it'd look really cute!

[clear pebble]

Ah, I see. Then yeah like I said the glass should be totally fine. Case glass panels usually are tempered glass so it shouldn't even shatter from the heat, tho not like hot glues would heat it up much to begin with.

[empty token]

thank you so so much!!

im very extra with my aesthetics so i like go to above and beyond for them

[clear pebble]

Agreed, when its some you've paid that much, pc authentic is number 1 imo.

It's also why I painted my gpu when a white one doesn't exist just so I can match the color

Yeah exactly. Im not one to place stickers but I do like how you did yours

Funny enough I did add stickers to my laptop

[empty token]

i have these two little things that i’m going to find a way to hang off my case with the lace + ribbon im gonna glue on

theyre supposed to hold pins and cards

[wispy thunder]

I built this a while ago - there is a battery lightbar in there just to show what lighting looks like when its on

[clear pebble]

Woahhh, thats actually really cool. Can you @ me when you finish it i wanna see

[wispy thunder]

but then I switched to TG sisde panel because it was quieter

yessir

[gaunt spade]

[clear pebble]

Yeah, I play a lot of vr and do renders and avatars for vr so I like having my cpu and glu running colder

[clear pebble]

More like 15c

[wispy thunder]

who r u

[wispy thunder]

sounds like a bad remount tbh, I've painted GPUs with 0 temp difference

actually no, temp difference in that I swapped to PTM and improved temps

[gaunt spade]

whatsup

[stray portal]

Does anyone here play wolfenstein

[clear pebble]

Ohhh, ngl I thought they were talking about cooling with my fans and oush pull aio config, then no, it runs fine

[wispy thunder]

Oh

[clear pebble]

Same temps as stock

[empty token]

i got one of the thingys on with some magnets and prayers i’m really happy with how it sticks

[wispy thunder]

I thought they were talking about painting the gpu increase temps?

[empty token]

(ignore mads mikkelsen hes a placeholder pin

[wispy thunder]

fire, though maybe grab some windex and a clean towel to clean your side panels...

[empty token]

Gulp. Maybe another time!

[wispy thunder]

downside of TG is most of them aren't coated with oleophobic coatings, so it catches every single fingerprint

[clear pebble]

Idk how much glue you did, all ik is some magnets can loose there power due to heat so dont add too much hot glue to magnets

[empty token]

I didn't glue it on yet

[gaunt spade]

why not make a drawing on the back of the gpu instead of just painting white

[empty token]

The back is a metal pin backing

[wispy thunder]

nah hotglue for permanent magnets or rare-earth magnets won't do anything

[empty token]

So it's able to stick onto the magnet well

[clear pebble]

Bc white

[wispy thunder]

heat in that it can literally melt the metal (torches) will do that though

[gaunt spade]

what about white with cool design

[clear pebble]

Maybe

Bc i did change th fans and ot lacks something now

Better airflow fans but now its missing something

[gaunt spade]

black mobo pmo

looks like am4

why is the picture so high quality even zooming in

[clear pebble]

Pmo?

But yes its am4

[gaunt spade]

piss me off

[scenic hamlet]

How can you tell that?

[clear pebble]

Ah, thats a new one. Well yeah there's not many white mobo, thankfully its black and silver so matches a lil. Its also why I bought that silver ssd heat sink

[gaunt spade]

i just know

i can tell am4 apart

[scenic hamlet]

Alr bro spill the tea ! You never saw the socket

[gaunt spade]

well i see its ddr4

and i just recognise am4 builds

[scenic hamlet]

How can you tell that?!

[gaunt spade]

i see the ram?

[clear pebble]

Tbh thats you can see bc of the ram

[scenic hamlet]

Yea but how you know the ram is ddr4 not ddr5?

[clear pebble]

Its using corsair vengeance sticks which is a ddr4 platform

[gaunt spade]

you can tell

they dont look the same

[scenic hamlet]

Ohh I see

[clear pebble]

Mhm

[gaunt spade]

here for example ddr4 vs ddr5 trident z

completely different design

If only I could buy those, I'd love to have the royal crystals ones

whats insane

[wispy thunder]

I have found the one person on earth who likes Trident Z Royals

[clear pebble]

One day

When ram gets lower i will have my beauties

[gaunt spade]

gets lower

[clear pebble]

Yeah, fine when the PRICES gets lower

[gaunt spade]

i sadly sold 128gb of ddr5 right before ram prices went up

[clear pebble]

Shame

[gaunt spade]

i have 64gb ddr4 and cheapo 32gb of ddr5

[clear pebble]

Im gonna get 16gb sticks but im not supporting those prices, im selling mine for 30 each for 2 packs

[gaunt spade]

i fuckin hate ai

[clear pebble]

I just want sticks of ram bc I've had my pc crashes at times for running 4 sticks and these are 3600mt/s and while my pc CAN doesn't mean you should.

Overloads the memory controller of the cpu which is has, so I want 32gb but using 2 sticks instead of 4 like I am rn

[gaunt spade]

real

i hate 4 sticks

[clear pebble]

Yeah im surprised its been so normalized if its actually worse for the cpu

That and also I was crashing bc I didnt realize that I had too much thermal pase on one side of my cpu so some cores were hotter than others, not bc the 4 ram sticks

[gaunt spade]

what cpu are u running

[clear pebble]

Ryzen 7 5800XT

[gaunt spade]

tuff?

i have a 12700k 😭😭

[cold skiff]

Still a great cpu

[frigid blade]

It’s really not that bad as long as you keep it around JEDEC for DDR5

Obviously in gear 2, but you can get above 5000MT/s stable

[gaunt spade]

yea im not bottlenecked anywhere

[frigid blade]

On my 13900kf I was able to run 5600MT/s stable, on my 285k it doesn’t wanna go above 5200 for 4x48gb

[gaunt spade]

i kinda want am5 tho

[frigid blade]

I have a better memory controller and better mobo, I just hit the opposite of the silicon lottery

[cold skiff]

Mac bin

[clear pebble]

Ah I see, well idk if I'll be moving to ddr5 anytime soon

[frigid blade]

Or maybe I got lucky with my 13900kf

[frigid blade]

Iirc 4 dimms is more stable on ddr4 than 5

[clear pebble]

I know to switch all I need is mobo ram and cpu but im good for now

[clear pebble]

Actually?

[gritty panther]

that's weird. Intel IMC should be a lot better

[frigid blade]

It is weird, I haven’t had the chance to go further, not much time

[gritty panther]

im only at 6000 on my 6400 kit

my 9950x3d's IMC isn't the best

[frigid blade]

I have 2 6800 kits

[gritty panther]

2x48gb too

I was able to do 6200 on a 9800x3d. (same board and RAM) probably just got worse IMC on the 9950x3d

[frigid blade]

I’ve seen 6k on am5 for 4x48 stable

I’m just unlucky ig

[gritty panther]

that's what im running right now

1:1 buildzoid timings. Intel should do a lot better

[frigid blade]

I will try the am5 tunes

I was going on my own, and I’m not the best at RAM OC

[gritty panther]

not on 4x48

[frigid blade]

Yes

[gritty panther]

afaik AMD can only do like 4600+ with 4 sticks

[frigid blade]

Let me find the video

[gritty panther]

that's why I didnt do 192gb.

[normal oak]

I can't do am5 yet. haven't found great ECC for budget.

[gritty panther]

a video won't convince me tbh. I know for a fact it can't do 6000 with 4 sticks 😄

[frigid blade]

Maybe it’s just luck

[gritty panther]

Ive been wrong before but im pretty confident about this one

my 9950x3d is barely doing 6000 with 2x48gb

no shot with 4 sticks 😄

but with Intel for sure imo. IMC is just better.

[frigid blade]

https://youtu.be/NtMIppL9UC4?t=1068&si=Z5MmS6l-bL2xizkQ

I timestamped to the end

[gritty panther]

i dont trust the video but that's just me

[hexed tapir]

Easy you just win the silicon lottery on the CPU and mobo

[gritty panther]

I dont think it's stable. just did it for the clicks

[frigid blade]

I wish there was presets online for 6k stable, I don’t feel like waiting for each memory training

[hexed tapir]

My 5600x could run 4x8gb 3800 cl16/17 but my 5700x3d could not

[frigid blade]

Maybe there is but I haven’t checked far enough

[gritty panther]

I have buildzoid timings for a-die and m-die. you can use it for reference

lemme know if you want it

[frigid blade]

Yah could you DM it, I have like 2 hours left at work and I’ll give it a try once I’m home

[gritty panther]

silicon lottery bebe. my 9800x3d can do 6200 mt/s. my 9950x3d can't.

[gritty panther]

gotcha fam

[gaunt spade]

very true

i couldnt do 4 sticks on am5

[gritty panther]

@frigid blade ygpm

[gritty panther]

I "downgraded" from 128gb DDR4 to 96gb because of this. I didnt want 4600 mt/s with 4 sticks

I regret not doing it. free money in 2026

I thought about it. I was like, I have an X3D chip, shouldnt matter too much. a 96gb m-die 6400 cl32 was 269.99 on amazon.

did the "smarter" thing and stuck to 2 sticks. fuckkkk lol

[clear pebble]

Oh damn, consider me lucky

[hexed tapir]

4600 was the max ?!

[gritty panther]

afaik yes. I wasn't dumb enough to try it

[hexed tapir]

I would assume 5600 or 5400 would run

[gaunt spade]

ur on am4

[grizzled frost]

4800 would be the bare minimum, you're very likely to get 5600 to run

[gaunt spade]

real my system couldnt run 128gb

[clear pebble]

Ik

[gaunt spade]

its easier

[gritty panther]

I would be pretty happy with 5600 mt/s 4 sticks

I dont think that's the norm.

[grizzled frost]

It is

[gritty panther]

ahh I should've bought 192gb

found out for myself ya know. not just getting info from strangers on reddit

[hexed tapir]

We touch grass less than reddit users

[gritty panther]

but more than likely I wouldve sold that second kit

[grizzled frost]

strangers on reddit? nah
iroh on discord? fuck yeah

[gritty panther]

$1500 for 96gb is nice

maybe more?

[hexed tapir]

Rtx 5080 money

[grizzled frost]

as low as 820

[gaunt spade]

i sold 128gb for 331$

[hexed tapir]

Chump

[gritty panther]

I notice 6400 CL32 is a little pricier

[frigid blade]

I got lucky with mine

I got those 2 kits for $250 total

[gritty panther]

I have a lot of RAM.

[frigid blade]

Way back when

[gritty panther]

I buy shit I dont need. fluked it out,.

[frigid blade]

So $250 -> $1.4k

[gaunt spade]

🥀

[frigid blade]

And I thought they were expensive at the time

But they normally went for $250 each kit, I got lucky deal on eBay

[valid fiber]

i got my ram for 200€ in 2023

[normal oak]

DDR3 ECC RAM was so expensive post-covid

[grizzled frost]

i got 2x48gb ddr5 6000 for 330usd about 1.5 years ago

[grizzled frost]

was dirt cheap again by 2024

[gritty panther]

I got mine 12 months ago. 2x48 6400 cl32 M-die for 269.99

I believe that was the lowest price ever

[grizzled frost]

Likely

[normal oak]

the lower latency helps a bit for video editing (fast 40gbps+ over net)

[gritty panther]

at that time I thought it was a very bad purchase.

I was 100% sure cheap/er 2x64gb kits were coming

[grizzled frost]

ddr3 does not have lower latency

[gritty panther]

whelp that didn't happen. not even close

[normal oak]

2500+ GB of RAM as a database storage for my game dev testing only

[grizzled frost]

$150 if they fix it was the quote

$50 if they don’t

[hexed tapir]

Not under warranty?

[frigid blade]

Third party seller, physical damage

Amazon refunded me and didn’t ask me to return it

[pulsar root]

Is there any cpu better than the 9800x3d at gaming even if it was like $20K

[hexed tapir]

Ah

[grizzled frost]

9850x3d

[gritty panther]

9850x3d

[frigid blade]

Which is super weird because usually they want expensive stuff back even if it’s third party

But I didn’t say anything because like, possible free $1.1k after repair

[gritty panther]

I bought the 9800x3d and didnt like the purchase that much for some reason. returned it for a 9950x3d 😄

I checked earlier the same kit is $2.1k now new, it was $1.4k 2 months ago

[gritty panther]

I used the 9800x3d for like 4 days. returned it at microcenter for a 9950x3d at launch day.

[ocean axle]

Real glad I got my 128gb kit for $300

[hexed tapir]

TCL didn't take my TV back with a msrp of $1999 just had one malfunctioning dimming zone

[frigid blade]

I love when stuff like that happens

[hexed tapir]

Now it's in the TV room

[gritty panther]

I didnt like the purchase that much. I feel like it's so much money for an 8 core. spending $200 more the 9950x3d was more appealing to me

[normal oak]

the L3 cache is great for game dev testing on those models

[frigid blade]

Or they ask you to cut some wires for warranty replacement that I can solder back

[gritty panther]

I dont know about game dev testing but games goes brrrrr

[pulsar root]

That’s still like sub1k; isn’t there any cpus that are like really expensive but would technically be a bit better than the 9850

[normal oak]

yupp the CPU architecture is definitely spectacular

[ocean axle]

No

[gritty panther]

9950x3d?

[hexed tapir]

They wanted me to sharpie void on the rear product number sticker and that's it

[ocean axle]

It's not better for gaming

[gritty panther]

it's a little worse 😄

but it's the better cpu imo

because he wants something more.

[gaunt spade]

9950x3d so ahh

[hexed tapir]

Buy a 9950x3d and disable the slower 8 cores

@clear pebble It’s very messy, but I finished decorating it! I might get more fabric soon tho teehee

Dude!! That looks amazong!

[empty token]

Thank you!!

[gaunt spade]

gpu temps go brr

[frigid blade]

What’s the syringe?

Oh

Is that the thermal paste

No that’s a syringe

[empty token]

Being so genuine i used to have alot more inside of it and it was completely fine

[frigid blade]

I like the vertical GPU

[empty token]

I made sure nothing was obstructing fans, airflow spots etc

[empty token]

Thank you!!

[gaunt spade]

whats the gpu temps

[frigid blade]

I had an ROG 4070 Ti vertically, looked so good

I wish I had a stand for my current GPU but not yet

[empty token]

They go to like 75-80 off the top of my head but I havent been able to measure an accurate amount bcuz all i’ve been playing on my pc is identity v

[gritty panther]

My 4090 still has good temps but it's been a while. maybe it's due for a repaste

[frigid blade]

Are GPU repastes harder than CPU?

I was scared to open my 4090

[empty quartz]

Yes

But not alot harder

[frigid blade]

I’ve had it for 2 years and was someone else’s for a year before that

[gritty panther]

I can repaste a CPU with one hand. GPU's are a lot more annoying

[frigid blade]

So 3 years without repaste

[empty quartz]

Almost on the level of a macbook

[gaunt spade]

...

[gritty panther]

pretty much. I think it's time

[gaunt spade]

cuz there no airflow

[gritty panther]

might get much better temps with fresh paste

[gaunt spade]

gpu gon die fr

[frigid blade]

75-80 isn’t even that bad tho is it?

I know it’s on the higher end but

[empty quartz]

Far from bad

[gaunt spade]

fan propably loud af too

[gritty panther]

100c is bad imo

[empty quartz]

95+ is bad

[gaunt spade]

very high end

[empty quartz]

Idk how but my blower r9 290 (which pulled >450w) actually maxed at 73c

[frigid blade]

I ran my 4090 at 90c for months on end when I was mining, it’s still fine

[empty token]

I mean tbf i play with very high settings and i have a 4080

[frigid blade]

But iirc mining wasn’t as bad as the gaming equivalent in time

[gritty panther]

my 4090 runs very cool. case has a lot of airflow and bigboy heatsink

ive never seen it touch 80c

[empty quartz]

@gaunt spade no offence, but i suggest reading up on what temperatures silicon starts to degrade at for cpu’s and gpu’s

[gaunt spade]

[frigid blade]

I gotta stop checking discord at work but I like reading the chat

[gritty panther]

I dont really work much lately so im always in front of my computer. AMD has been really stable im very satisfied. on paper my PC should melt by now. 4090 and asrock motherboard. it's been rock solid

[gritty panther]

im always on discord when im not working lol. I like you guys 😄

[empty quartz]

I need to get some new ram

[frigid blade]

Siding fun

[gritty panther]

[empty quartz]

No

[normal oak]

struggling to stay unemployed is probably the hardest

[gritty panther]

I wouldnt buy anything in this economy

[frigid blade]

To stay unemployed is hard? lol

[gritty panther]

"just shut up and be happy with what you have" is the meta right now

[empty quartz]

Depends where you live

Where i live, staying unemployed is easy

[gritty panther]

not working is easy. wish there's no bills to pay

[normal oak]

when u have like 5 acres of property to manage in a family unit, hard to find a decent paying job

[gritty panther]

get isekaid to another city?

I moved to a whole new country and had to learn English. wasn't easy but change was neccessary.

[frigid blade]

But you said it was hard to not have a job not to find one

[normal oak]

both situations are hard

[frigid blade]

Unless you mean it’s hard to not work because you need the money

Then I misunderstood initially

[empty token]

I’m really glad that I got my pc with high specs so theres no need for me to upgrade

[normal oak]

this is why I would rather fund the grandson instead of refund student debts lol

[frigid blade]

I guess I was lucky to be poor because I was able to get my associates for free

[normal oak]

pair programming is the best

[frigid blade]

And I can probably get my bachelors too

But I don’t feel like it

I got my associates done in a year

Was all online, never again

I took summer classes and everything

Worst experience ever

[gritty panther]

let's go

[frigid blade]

Summer classes was basically the same amount of work in half the time

So 4 courses felt like 8

[normal oak]

you sound like me now. took calc and english in a single summer and passed both

week split doing two 4 hour in class sessions

[frigid blade]

Yah I took all gen ed during that summer class

Don’t tattle on me but I asked my gf take one of the exams for me

[gaunt spade]

calc is short for calculus and not calculator btw if anyones new to the stream

[normal oak]

shakespearean literature and calc 2+

[frigid blade]

She’s much smarter than me, and I made sure to make up for it with a few dates hahah

We had her remote into my pc with sunshine + moonlight so there was no notification, because it was proctored so I still had to be there on cam

[rigid fjord]

yes

[sinful citrus]

I wanna buy a new m.2 ssd, but its pcie-gen5, i do have an m.2 slot with pcie gen5 but its occupied already by, i believe, my boot drive. Is it fine to move the boot drive to another slot and then place my new ssd in the gen 5 slot?

[limpid ivy]

Lol I suffered two summers like that in community college, hell but so worth it on stupid GE classes even though I still spent more time there then I should've

[sinful citrus]

Motherboard is a Gigabyte X670 X AX

[rigid fjord]

it would be pointless to get a gen 5 drive, just get a decent gen4 drive

[limpid ivy]

Still stuck having to do some upper general eds when I transferred but knocking out the last 2 atm so it's all good after this.

[gaunt spade]

67

[sinful citrus]

doesn't really matter what drive it is, is it okay to move the boot drive?

[rigid fjord]

you could but no point, just put any newer drive in one of the other m.2 slots instead

Hi Vyruss.

I'd totally have that setup if I didn't need a beefy machine (don't even have one but am suffering with lack of performance lol)

there's pills for that you know

$85 and your performance wont change at all why are people buying this?

Does anyone else have issues with ryzen? Ive been running system systems and servers for years, but all versions after x570 have been horrible. Very unstable, all my personal systems even now with my x870e asus pro art cannot post half the time even with default settings. I have to reset the bios up to 10 times to get them to post, and now after updating my bios it will seem like it posts but it does not. I'm at the point of downgrading to intel or moving to Mac for my workstations

Never thought it would say this

[tired bear]

"just 220 calories"
sir this is half a liters of coke

[ivory mountain]

Pretty average for protein related shit

[hexed tapir]

My x570 and ryzen 7 5700x3d is very stable

[tired bear]

and a fucking donout

[summer crow]

Yes x570 is very stable but everything after is horrible for me

My x570 systems are perfect

[hexed tapir]

Is your x870 system using 4 sticks of ram

[ivory mountain]

Donuts are pure garbage and calorie dense

[summer crow]

x2 48gb

[hexed tapir]

Blasphemy

[summer crow]

and Ive had 2 9950x3ds die in the last year

I think I've come to the conclusion that ryzen is trash yet I still purchase them because core count

[shy arch]

Fun fact: You can buy a quad core ryzen for $60 cad

[frigid blade]

But 285k has 24 cores

[summer crow]

e cores are useless for me

Thats an 8 core cpu

[frigid blade]

What do you do on your pc

[shy arch]

Play crysis 💀

[summer crow]

Lots of virtual machines, simulation, and development

Plus gaming

I also use ryzen for high performance servers

[frigid blade]

I thought the 285k came out on top for development and stuff like that?

CAD and whatnot

[summer crow]

I'm not sure but ecores are useless for me on Linux

[fickle ivy]

Can my hard drive be any slower holy shit I've been waiting like half an hour to log into windows

[hexed tapir]

We can make it slower

Replace the motor to one that's 1 rpm

[simple dagger]

Sorry for late reply but yeah but also i don’t have discord on my laptop so xD

[fickle ivy]

I love waiting over 15 minutes for a fucking app to open

This thing is such an fucking piece of shit

[kindred halo]

Then get the cpu with the best single core

Zen / Zen+ should do the trick

Even better if they'd Zen/+ threadrippers

[high elm]

you can find quad core ryzens for $5 man

[shy arch]

Yeah crysis doesn't care about multi core performance

[clear canyon]

Crysis is old

[tidal geyser]

crysis is single core

[vale lotus]

5060ti or 9060xt

[fringe prairie]

hm does linux still not have a proper scheduler or thread director?

oh it’s actually great on linux

[clear canyon]

Ur a single core

[clear canyon]

Which ever is cheaper ngl

[tidal geyser]

lpmd

[fringe prairie]

performance is pretty solid too. just checked phoronix

[tidal geyser]

kernel 7.1 is getting panther lake optimazations

[fringe prairie]

pretty much neck and neck with the 9950x

no clue what that guy was yapping about

[vale lotus]

I'm seeing the 9060xt pretty much $100 cheaper

[versed ferry]

Krispy Kreme makes the best fucking donuts, my god they're good

[summer crow]

How would that work with 8 cores 16 ecores and systems like proxmox, unraid, vms, bsd, ect?

I thought it was in a similar performance range to 9800x3d

I know most people on Linux disable the ecores

[fringe prairie]

go look at phoronixs article

[median warren]

dude for 1300 this is a good deal, call me crazy

[hexed tapir]

You crazy

[median warren]

dude, that motherboard alone is like 600

and it has a 9800x3d with 32gb of ram

[tidal geyser]

but what is the performance difference from a 100$ board?

[median warren]

well im just thinking, if you wanted to build a pc, considering you get ram and a 9800x3d with it, its a good deal

ofc fancy motherboard isnt needed

[median warren]

yeah thats pretty good too

[tidal geyser]

400£ cpu and 400£ ram

[median warren]

ye but does your motherboard have an lcd display (im kidding and obvs that doesnt increase performance)

[hexed tapir]

But your cou doesn't have the numbers 50 in it :p

[median warren]

you right you right

[hexed tapir]

9850 + 50hp

[median warren]

woah, i need me that 50 extra horse power, it be rippin

[latent gull]

wait they actually offer something to make up for their cut now?

[real quiver]

If I were to buy an x570 it would work with my r7 2700x and NOT disable sata ports when m.2 slots are occupied right

[near crag]

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/edge-computing/products/igx/

so uh, thinking of getting my hands on an IGX thor dev kit to see if i can turn it into a goated steam machine LOL

[sharp ivy]

fixed

[sleek ibex]

That and the Spark are actually pretty reasonable given the specs

[turbid harness]

i was looking for a budget keyboard within 50-70 USD, preferably magnetic switches but linear work fine aswell any suggestions

[near crag]

spark is pretty excellent, i have one at work ive been meaning to put steam on, but this thing is fuckin dope and comes with an RTX Pro 6000 Max-Q and an even beefier processor so I want to see if it is the arm desktop no one knew we needed

specifically the IGX T7000

[summer crow]

What the hell my bios is lagging? lol

[wheat torrent]

Is your tab key stuck

[summer crow]

Its not, and you can see the fans spinning stop

[spring latch]

I like how I could just swap the HDD from my J4125 to my i5-7400 and linux still just worked
you could never do that with Windows

[summer crow]

Ryzen is something else

[jaunty apex]

Well its not Intel. Or arm. Or RISC. Or i386

Or tensor.. Or apple silicon..

[sharp ivy]

what about NEC

[jaunty apex]

I don't think that either

Or powerpc

[long vault]

Anyone have a good recommendation for a portable usb hub for M4 MacBook Pro?

[spring latch]

definetly not SPARC

[empty quartz]

Good luck actually getting one for less than the price of a car

[empty quartz]

Literally any of them as long as its at least usb 3

[near crag]

yea i get this shit at work all the time not a big deal

[hexed tapir]

I think you can

[flat cliff]

A Minecraft server with zero people on that I'm self hosting, do things happen? Aka the mobs near me walk away so I can eat and heal and not die or do I need to ask a friend to come find me?

[thorny saddle]

yes

[flat cliff]

Yes to what?

[thorny saddle]

hi

[flat cliff]

Get a friend or day night cycle and stuff happens?

Someone was talking about DGX Spark? 🧐

[hallow cypress]

hi guys i have an am4 motherboard and im thinking of maybe upgrading my pc. i currently have a rtx 3060 and a ryzen 7 5700x3d cpu and 32gb dd4 3600mhz ram thats overclocked to 4000mhz. i was maybe thinking about getting a 9800x3d but that also means i need to upgrade my motherboard to an am5 motherboard. Is it more worth it to upgrade my cpu or my gpu? i get 180 fps in siege, 140 in rust at low settings and those games are more cpu dependant

also for some reason i don't have pbo is that an issue?

[wheat torrent]

hahahaha.

wait until you find out how much you have to pay for ram

[hallow cypress]

oh yeah i forgot if i upgrade to am5 that'd probably mean i have to upgrade to ddr5 ram
