[left dove]

dont just make the router do two things.

[forest lotus]

FUCK NAW.

I'm doing things that hard way

[left dove]

Make it do one so it's good at one thing

ok have fun whenyou brick your wifi radios

[forest lotus]

Make it good at both. If I absolutely have to I'll get an ap

[left dove]

an AP is literally a consumer router with the router funciton turned off.

[forest lotus]

But if I find a MediaTek wifi card and strong enough signal if should actually function well as both

[bold olive]

it's you vs the rest of the world bud

[left dove]

It always is, I'm used toit.

[forest lotus]

Oh I know but. I don't want the unnecessary box if I can put it all in one box by any means i will

[left dove]

You have an.. interesting way you're going about this project.

[forest lotus]

I know my transmit dBm will likely be lower with the wifi card

[left dove]

Interesting yes
Intelligent, no

[forest lotus]

But if it can cover a house good enough

[sinful cobalt]

jesus thats fkin my room’s width

[left dove]

I'm an adult woman I deserve an adult desk

[forest lotus]

Oh yeah. I do that alot.

Frankly it's for pure challenge

This whole project happened because I got bored

[sinful cobalt]

idk if i want a 1.6m or 1.8m desk- 1.8m might be too long

[tulip sparrow]

Just no on the mediatek wifi

[forest lotus]

I got bored didn't wanna deal with the Asus zenwifi ax that my father has. So I said fuck it and challenged myself to make a fully functioning router and firewall in 2days from scratch

[left dove]

FULL. WIDTH.

[forest lotus]

Drivers are open source and no LAR regulations

[tulip sparrow]

I need to place the 2 mediateks I have since they are garbage. I hate the MEdiatek and AMD collab

[forest lotus]

And as you probably saw. V1 and well the second version of this project will be sitting on a Z68

With a I7 2600k

Overkill

[sinful cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/formula-one-car-crash-gif-8120045

[left dove]

yes lets make the router insanely power inefficient so its even harder to keep online

[tulip sparrow]

I need to double check on my motherbaord how many and where the pcie x1 slots are

[forest lotus]

Aka the OTA and boot a/B

Plus also budget is a problem

[tulip sparrow]

At least on my laptop it will be easier to replace the wifi card

[forest lotus]

Also it pulls like 50w from the wall max

Because that 2600k is

Basically asleep all the time

Not efficient but also

Really 50w +15w is all I need on the ups

For the router and gig air antenna

My laptop does not need to be on a UPS

[tulip sparrow]

One slot is occupied by my GPU and another by my Capture card

Ok looks like I have a second one near the bottom for another pcie x1 card aka wifi/bluetooth

[silent marten]

Is it ok if I go less on ups?

[left dove]

wat

[silent marten]

Less money spending

On ups

[left dove]

why

[left dove]

invest in protection for your expensive items

[silent marten]

Ok

[forest lotus]

I have a decent surge protector on my laptop that's it

[tulip sparrow]

The top PCIE x1 slot is unusable since it gets covered by the GPU but the 2 below are quite usable which is nice

[bold olive]

RCD on the house and surge protector on the power dock

[left dove]

my guy are you even old enough to be on discord

[bold olive]

yeah he's over 13

[silent marten]

BTW can anyone give me parts for a good pc balanced for everything(gaming, work ,ai and editing) for around 1000$

[left dove]

RCD and per-phase surge suppression goes in w/ the new electrical panel this spring

[silent marten]

Yup

[bold olive]

the hell are you doing with ai at your age

[bold olive]

nice we had that a long time ago

[tulip sparrow]

Now I need to find a pcie x1 wifi/bluetooth card to purchase

[bold olive]

cuz the motherboard is ancient?

[forest lotus]

Mobo wifi cards usually meh

[bold olive]

usually ass

[tulip sparrow]

No the built in mediatek card is garbage

Bloody collab between AMD and Mediatek

[bold olive]

built in realtek wifi 6 card is ass

[tulip sparrow]

I also need to repalce the wifi card in my linux laptop

[silent marten]

Upgrading from a core i3 4030u and 4gb ddr3l laptop used for 10 years
I'm gonna use the pc too for more than 10 years, so I want it future proof

[forest lotus]

MediaTek ain't terrible with the 7995

As long as it's not booadcom

[bold olive]

id much rather have the Intel wifi card in my laptop

[tulip sparrow]

which is also AMD based thus mediatek for the wifi card

[forest lotus]

Intel has LAR and that's an issue for me

[silent marten]

Isn't that question personal btw

[bold olive]

what's lar

[forest lotus]

Location aware regulatory

[bold olive]

more of 'what kind of program you are using to utilize ai'

[silent marten]

Anything, like I want offline ai

[silent marten]

Ai chatbot

[tulip sparrow]

Intel Location-Aware Regulatory (LAR) is a firmware feature in Intel WiFi adapters that automatically detects the operating region to comply with local radio regulations. Often causing 5GHz, 6GHz, or 160MHz connectivity issues (e.g., restricted to 20MHz or no 5GHz), it frequently misidentifies regions, leading to poor performance

[left dove]

you're in 10th grade, go do your social studies and/or math homework

[tulip sparrow]

Seems to be the most common issue with LAR

[bold olive]

our region doesn't care so

[silent marten]

I'm gonna use it for learning it better

[forest lotus]

So if things go caput I'm just gonna get locked out of 5ghz and 6ghz

[left dove]

No. don't use ai to make you learn better at your age.

you'll just hinder yourself in life.

[forest lotus]

Only use AI to assist not to learn from hell don't really ever use AI to learn

[bold olive]

i swear if you insulted him

[left dove]

..what?

[forest lotus]

If you need to find information faster I like to use it as a search engine

But I still cross compare things

[bold olive]

nvm disregard

[silent marten]

Atleast talk to it cut I'm alone always

[tulip sparrow]

Just NO

[left dove]

so go talk to kids your own age

[forest lotus]

DO NOT.

[left dove]

go socialize with animals or fellow human beings

[forest lotus]

Like Gemini is really good at being Google search but not actually fucking annoying

[left dove]

You're also in 10th grade I really doubt you have a grand to blow on AI-capable hardware.

[forest lotus]

As I'm not dealing with Google's SEO bullshit trying to find random information

Now I still have to verify information

[tulip sparrow]

Do NOT rely on AI for anything major like that

[left dove]

just fuckin stay in school, learn to socialize, and do good in class

[bold olive]

idk why, i experimented some maths questions (which I solved myself already) and it kept relaying to the previous unrelated question

[forest lotus]

it's fucking weird right now

It keeps hallucinating and it's getting really fucking annoying

[bold olive]

i tried it cuz with previous chats outside of maths, it seems odd when there's more than 2 or 3 chats

[forest lotus]

It still beats dealing with SEO bullshit

Like mine keeps hallucinating a cupcake recipe

When I have never asked it about cupcakes

[bold olive]

literally the only good ai from Google is ai overview

[left dove]

[forest lotus]

Yeah they lobotomized Gemini

[frigid zenith]

Nah, dealing with SEO is an art

[tulip sparrow]

and even then you need to double check the information its spitting out at you

[frigid zenith]

Its a delicate dance

[forest lotus]

Always verify information

Always.

[bold olive]

i always check the websites which ai overview gets it's information from

actually, for every ai chatbot I talk to

[tulip sparrow]

Even then many times its not getting info from the highlighted sites

[forest lotus]

Also AI can spit out

Really stupid suggestions.

[bold olive]

bullshit

exactly

[forest lotus]

Like Gemini suggested using UFW for the router firewall

[bold olive]

tf

[forest lotus]

UFW is so fucking ass at being routers

I did give it a shot and then said Gemini fuck off I'm using NFTables and just setting it to default drop

[bold olive]

@left dove I remember now, the sound bar was attached to a 40 inch tv that fitted the sound bar's width

so it's about 39 inches

[left dove]

https://tenor.com/view/irrelevant-rust-playrust-egoism-who-are-you-gif-15088356

[forest lotus]

UFW is unusable for routers

There is apparently a way you can get it to work

But it's so convoluted

[bold olive]

the person who stuffed a tv sound bar under a 27 inch monitor

[sinful cobalt]

my 32” OLED arrived WAY earlier than I needed

[bold olive]

4k?

[left dove]

slayyy

[brave brook]

me talkling about GPU sizing for a very specific LLM model, Google says "with 24GB VRAM you get 40-50k context length, with 32GB VRAM mayeb 120 to 140k" (i am using that model right now with a 2x 1080 Ti with no spillover). So i ask - is LM Studio lying when i tells different numbers. And then it goes "LM Studio is not lying, but its estimate is likely based on the specific architectural optimizations" - and boom, suddenly it can fit in 32GB VRAM with no issues 😄

[sinful cobalt]

my table is guaranteed gonna have a stroke

[haughty compass]

Do yall think it's worth $7 to pick this thing up from the thrift store?

[left dove]

no.

its got an FM2+ socket more than likely

which is.. Old. Very old.

[haughty compass]

True

[sinful cobalt]

its a nice but heavy weapon

not that practical at all

[brave brook]

https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=AMD+A6-3670+APU&id=28

[left dove]

OH ITS FM1 EVEN WORSE

[native path]

hi tech chat 1 how we doing

[brave brook]

i suspect it's this https://villman.com/Product-Detail/P6_2277D

[left dove]

hella homo & gay

and not the fun gay either

[haughty compass]

💔

[left dove]

If you're asking us if you should buy cheap ewaste, I think you already know the answer.

[native path]

today i learnt qd oled prices from dell are super reasonable in singapore

[native path]

why not the fun gay

the fun gay is always... fun

[left dove]

I am Gay++

[haughty compass]

OK ok what do you think about this avr for $40...? I been wanting to setup a sound system for my parents house but they keep putting it off cus it's too expensive so I was thinking this could be a possible way for me to help out

[native path]

do you stay with your parents?

[left dove]

just get them a soundbar..

[haughty compass]

I visit on weekenda

[haughty compass]

They did but they didn't like how it sounded

[left dove]

Just get them a fucking soundbar, dude

[left dove]

ok did you set it up correctly

because I bet you didn't

[haughty compass]

My dad set it up

[left dove]

your dadprobably set it up wrong

[native path]

i see - this is advice outside the scope of your question but either just use the the soundbar like peyton mentioned or use the tv's built in speakers. it's absolutely not worth the hassle of setting up and troubleshooting old tech every other week

[sinful cobalt]

i got my aw2725df for 784

i think i saw it at sub 700

[native path]

678 now

[rigid fjord]

i see me making audio go from umph umph umph, to UMPH UMPH UMPH

[haughty compass]

[sinful cobalt]

mine was last year march

[native path]

this is this year march

1440p 360hz qd oled

[sinful cobalt]

its a nice monitor but 3rd gen qdoled ez to scratch I rather you wait for the gigabyte QHD 280hz glossy woled

[native path]

feel like this is more than 678

[left dove]

soooooo dont scratch it?

[sinful cobalt]

730+ (730 is during sale)

[sinful cobalt]

while cleaning

[left dove]

use better materials

[sinful cobalt]

also it loves relatively fresh microfibres

[native path]

is it the MO27Q28GR

[sinful cobalt]

yes

@native path theres someone on the bus using a tablet twice as big as mine

[native path]

but alienware is cool tho

[sinful cobalt]

it highk look like a 14” monitor atp

[native path]

i know samsung has like a huge ass tablet

[sinful cobalt]

she launched some clash game

that is hilariously huge for a tablet

[native path]

bro samsung has 14.6" tablet

[sinful cobalt]

it should be that

since genuinely the screen was flashing her face

[native path]

14.6" tablet and it has a slight notch in the middle like that

[left dove]

called a bubble

[native path]

i see

[sinful cobalt]

uh

it went from her lap to her face

thats how big it was 💀

[left dove]

well yeah 14" is pretty big

[sinful cobalt]

idk if thats the exact one

[native path]

are u just like monitoring her on the bus

💀

[left dove]

shes monitoring herself with that tablet

[sinful cobalt]

no

[native path]

i actually want to see this tablet in person now i'll go down to samsung tmr

[solemn pewter]

They are pretty insane. We use them sometimes for customer meetings due to the size.

[native path]

goodness i can't imagine my g14 screen size as a tablet

[solemn pewter]

It's a massive shame that procreate and ForScore are locked down on iPads, because I would not mind the extra 2 inches at all, especially ForScore.

[native path]

i should get into forscore

oh its $35 nevermind i dont want to get into forscore

[left dove]

😏

[sinful cobalt]

i feel like that tablet size is 18” now that Im thinking and comparing what I saw to my portable monitor

its def more in line at 18”

like i shit you not its that big

[wispy seal]

How long does consumer memory tend to last? I’ve had 3 (out of 12 total) gskill memory modules go caput in the last year in systems that I’ve built and maintain for family members. (Late 2018 through 2019 mfg dates)

[native path]

no shot

[sinful cobalt]

im telling you dude

like imagine yourself sitting down on the bus seat

that tablet is on ur lap and it vertically reaches ur face

[stray portal]

Maybe its a problem on ur side

Ram should last for a long time

[sinful cobalt]

For D4 I’d say thats slightly below what I’d expect
For D5 its longer/lower chance to fail as they have on die ECC

[wispy seal]

If it all came out of one system I’d think so too. Two of the sticks came out of one system and one from another. Different buildings, completely different build setups

[sinful cobalt]

I’d expect ram to last 10 years xd

[wispy seal]

I kind of figured based on what warranty’s for it typically is.

I want to move away from non-ECC memory going forward. Too many headaches caused and not caught quickly enough from corrupted file systems

[tulip sparrow]

10+ inch tablets are a BIT much for me personally at least in the use case I use my tablets in

[solemn pewter]

One time purchase though. I'd happily pay $50 for a piece of software that isn't another stupid subscription

[stray portal]

On die ecc is kind of a scam, as problems can happen between the die and cpu

[tulip sparrow]

8-9" is the perfect size tho

[wispy seal]

DDR5 built in error correction isn’t proper ecc sadly

[tulip sparrow]

Glad Lenovo still puts out a solid midrange/highend tabelt ion that range unlike everyone else who uses the range for their crap "BUDGET" tablets

[sinful cobalt]

on die ecc is literally on like every ddr5 ever

[stray portal]

Yes and its a scam on all of them

[sinful cobalt]

how is it a scam lmao

[native path]

yeah that's true, kinda odd im complaining about $35 on a device i paid a grand for

[sinful cobalt]

maybe u just got unlucky tbh

[wispy seal]

It’s better than nothing but it’s like asking an airbag to do the job of a seatbelt.

[solemn pewter]

Fair enough. Do you have a Mac to go with your iPad? If you don't, it is very very irritating to try and get music onto ForScore as well.

If you don't, I'd stick with printed sheet music lol.

[wispy seal]

Yeah I definitely could’ve. I still have enough memory for all my systems but I’ll need to probably buy more once we get out of the dumb bubble

[stray portal]

Proper ecc is end to end while on die ecc doesnt fully do it as ive said above

[sinful cobalt]

Problem- DDR4 production was significantly cut last year already

[frail sequoia]

I found an app called shader glass and now my pc looks like a crt!

[native path]

not yet, im picking up a mac either this year or next. for now i've been using notability on a pdf because i'm moreso teaching the music so i don't exactly need all the features from forscore, but like it would be nice to have for sets i'm learning on the side as a hobby

[sinful cobalt]

that still does not qualify as a scam what you’re describing is on die ECC vs proper ECC

[stray portal]

Its not real ecc

[cold skiff]

We talking ram again?

[cold skiff]

Lies. Your image may be warped but nothing compares to putting your nose right against glass and seeing wiggly RGB lines and a reflection.

[solemn pewter]

Yeah, that's fair enough. My sheet music library is close to the thousands, and I use it for daily practice, so it was definitely worth diving into the ecosystem quite a bit more

[sinful cobalt]

@native path this guy’s biggest nemesis is reading istg

[stray portal]

And again with ur slop

[native path]

mine's in the dozens 😂 i DCI drumline music as a hobby and teach marching percussion a couple of times a week

[stray portal]

What exactly didnt i read? I explained how its a scam 2 times and u didnt read both times then u repeat what i said to seem smart

[cold skiff]

I mean he’s not wrong sets

[native path]

And again with ur slop

[cold skiff]

Any error that occurs after data is transmitted will be an error, unless it’s traditional ecc that can correct it

[sinful cobalt]

unless the ram is marketed as “ECC” instead of “on die ECC” thats a scam

[cold skiff]

That is true

[native path]

coke zero is a scam because it has no sugar and i want sugar in my coke

[solemn pewter]

Oh, now you have my full attention haha. That's super awesome. It has been many years, but I was very much in the thick of that in high school and college.

[sinful cobalt]

And nobody went over anything like that and dude was flaring up

[stray portal]

I said exactly that

[cold skiff]

False. It’s advertised as zero sugar. It’s not advertised as aspartame sweetened, it’s advertised as with natural sweeteners. That’s the lie

[native path]

yeah i did it in high school and decided it's fun enough that i volunteer to help out 3 times a week, have been for a couple years

[sinful cobalt]

you’re describing the difference not how “the scam” goes

[solemn pewter]

I am confident that some of my adult back problems are due to marching with tenors lol

[native path]

oh yeah i've seen multiple messed up knees, backs and shoulders from drumline

[sinful cobalt]

guys my white monster is advertised as zero sugar but it has chemicals in it 😠

[cold skiff]

Oh I see now

Sets was basically saying on die is useless to call ecc because it isn’t ecc

[native path]

those never go away, but at least it gave me a good set of lower back muscles to build off of

[solemn pewter]

Super unfortunate....it was a fun experience overall, and I still think it was worth it. I should have been more careful.

I think more modern harnesses have actual proper body support now though. They look significantly fancier than the ones I used

[cold skiff]

The scam is even putting that out there in the first place

[sinful cobalt]

dude is describing ANYTHING but how on die ECC gets marketed to become a scam

[solemn pewter]

@native path

[frail sequoia]

i said looks like, when i buy the xbox 360 when the laptop sells im gonna get a crt too

[cold skiff]

Wasn’t it the real Linus that said people are getting scammed with that on ddr5?

[stray portal]

You are just arguing for the sake of arguing

[cold skiff]

That’s a beautiful combination

[stray portal]

Yeah he said that but i guess this guy knows better

[sinful cobalt]

Me when I say on die ECC itself isnt the scam directly but how its marketed on memory modules via things like title and description then it becomes a scam:

[native path]

yeah pearl's got some sweet stuff that my school hasn't caught on to yet, we recently just upgraded to this

[solemn pewter]

Holy crap, that looks so much nicer lol

Well...I mostly stick to concert percussion now, along with piano and violin. Much easier on the body

[stray portal]

https://tenor.com/view/bait-bait-or-low-iq-bait-or-low-iq-call-it-call-it-bait-or-gif-11665902714889208022

[native path]

dont worry we were rocking these for a decade before the upgrade

[sinful cobalt]

thanks for describing yourself even more

[native path]

yeah i just train formations and music, i don't go anywhere near carrying a drum again unless a student gets sick mid day and we're at an external venue. other than that im big chilling 😂

[solemn pewter]

That's probably good. Is it for high school, college, or recreational? I know you mentioned DCI

[native path]

i teach high school marching band, i learn DCI music at home for fun

[stray portal]

You should go to #rules and read rule 4 and 2

[native path]

unfortunately the marching band scene is super dead in singapore and we might not be able to financially sustain ourselves anymore for long

[solemn pewter]

Oh wow, Singapore! That's pretty wild. I didn't realize it was outside of the US and a few places in Europe

[native path]

yeah it's actually pretty cool, marching band is pretty big in Thailand and Japan, most schools in singapore actually engage with techs from those 2 countries for help since pretty much everything is self taught here. we were actually considering approaching techs from the US but we couldn't get the timing right

[sinful cobalt]

What rule 4? and you’re disobeying rule 2!

dudes be anyhow typin shit nowadays

@native path I think im just in time to get a free RE:Requiem code

[native path]

from?

[sinful cobalt]

asus

[native path]

oh yeah you bought one of their monitors

[sinful cobalt]

ironically i think if you buy a harpe ace 2 you also get it

that mouse is like 200 bucks

[native path]

wanna send the code to me

[sinful cobalt]

join the steam family

[cold skiff]

https://tenor.com/view/michael-jackson-comendo-picoca-gif-9669437860846841235

[sinful cobalt]

I think its high time I try my 7600X’s IMC and see if it does 6400 or 8000

Ill be haunting thaldy with the things related to ram now

[cold skiff]

https://tenor.com/view/darth-vader-no-noooo-gif-7347380959994097336

Don’t succumb to maximum effort for marginal gains

[sinful cobalt]

the excel machine must run 8000

[keen folio]

is it just me or are ram prices seemingly going down again rn?

[tidal geyser]

they are

[keen folio]

Finally. god damn i hope this AI thing finally ends

[oak narwhal]

I noticed that too

[keen folio]

i probably should still wait a bit to finally upgrade my system still

[tidal geyser]

stores still need money, cant keep tons of ram in stock at high prices even if it might still be harder for them to get new stock

[keen folio]

i mean even on amazon they are going down. and most are sold by amazon itself

[solid quail]

Tempted to get a 5900x. A lot of them for 200€

[keen folio]

but i still cant find a kit of 32gigs for less than 300.

[tidal geyser]

do you pay for power?

[keen folio]

try to get the 5700x3D, its better in almost every way when u want to game

[solid quail]

I do. 8cents/kwh

[tidal geyser]

meh go for it

[keen folio]

God damn thats cheap. i pay 40cents/kwh

[solid quail]

Gaming is secondary. I need multithreaded workloads

Music production/sound design

[keen folio]

yeah fair. then the 5900x is good

Wasnt there also a 5900x3D?

[tidal geyser]

no

[keen folio]

oh okay

[tidal geyser]

lets just say i care about power draw

[keen folio]

2 friggin watts? dammn

thats nothing

[tidal geyser]

ama try and hit sub 2

[solid quail]

Used an i7 5960x for ages. Bought a 40€ 16core xeon last fall. It's surprisingly good and handles the games I mainly play, but I have an itch that gta 6 will be out of question

[keen folio]

Good for you. whatever i try i cant get below 15

[solid quail]

Multicore wise I get similar perf to a 5800x

[tidal geyser]

on a laptop?

most should still be able to get down to 10w

[solid quail]

I picked up a b450m mortar max, 3400g and 16gb of ram for free a few months ago and they've been gathering dust ever since

[keen folio]

yeah. idk why. its a Ryzen 7 PRO 5850U

on a ThinkPad X13 Gen4

[tidal geyser]

zen 3 aint perfercet but it aint that bad

i managed 6w i think on one of mine on windows

[solid quail]

So if I get the 5900x, I'd have a decent mobo already. Also I have a few 16GB kits lying around in my shelf so ram wouldn't be an issue either

[odd marsh]

you NEED lunar lake

[keen folio]

yeah i have no clue. well, idc tbh, i mainly use it on a docking station at work and rarely at home. so not my power bill xD

and battery life is still good with the 6 hours i get usually.

[tidal geyser]

i really want to test out panther lake too

[solid quail]

But I also have a the transfer separately. That was like 4 cents per kwh

[keen folio]

what do you mean by that?

[solid quail]

Electricity bill+the eöectricity transfer bill

[odd marsh]

damn I meant to type out panther lake too idk why I wrote lunar lake lol

[keen folio]

the fuck is a electricity transfer bill?!

am i too german to understand that?

[solid quail]

We have to buy the electricity from one company and pay an another company to transfer it to the target building

If that makes sense

[keen folio]

okey, yeah it makes sense. but it sounds like a load of bull. but considering corporate earth its plausible at the same time

[tidal geyser]

me already on the lunar in the lake

no way in hell i would be getting 0.10w unless i was lunarlake and its LPE cores

[odd marsh]

yeah 2xxV is lunar lake idk why i said it, PTL is the goat

[solid quail]

Wait sorry I misremembered. My electricity is a bit more than that. Total with both the electricity and the transfer is closer to 15cents per kwh

[keen folio]

still god damn cheap

[tidal geyser]

no clue what mine is as i do not pay for power :3

[keen folio]

xD

[solid quail]

My apartment is heated with electricity (heat pump/ac) and during the winter the total bill was around 130€ max per month

[inner siren]

i got a question for yall if i may ask

[tidal geyser]

i wish i had a heatpump

[tidal geyser]

ask your question

[solid quail]

IT'S FUCKING LUXURY

[gaunt spade]

did z890 boards get more expensive

[tidal geyser]

30c+ inside during the summer makes me want to die

[inner siren]

if im on a budget of 1.3k us should i get a rtx 3080 or rx 6800 xt?

[tidal geyser]

probs due to low sales then now with the new chips doing a comeback

[solid quail]

During the summer my apartment never went hotter than 18c

[tidal geyser]

rtx 4070

[tidal geyser]

i would imagine so

[gaunt spade]

those gpus are like 800usd build

unless ur getting brand new ram and bs like dat

[solid quail]

Albeit my total electricity bill was around 50 or 60€

[tidal geyser]

if possible i would not go with anything below rtx 4000

[inner siren]

its a full on pc so

[gaunt spade]

yea exactly

what other parts

[solid quail]

One could argue it's worth it tho. Paying 50€ a month for not boiling to death in during summer

[gaunt spade]

yea 1.3k is alot of money

cheapest z890i is 300$

dam newegg has it for 260 still hella expensive

[inner siren]

context

[inner siren]

context of the choices? or

[modest sandal]

guys is better to connect my Logitech g pro x headset via jack or USB? with USB i can use the SW from Logitech
but idk if the sound wont be weird
like cracling and other stuff

[gaunt spade]

do you already have that i5 build and want a gpu or

[inner siren]

na not rn

im stuck on gpu choices before buying it all rn

[gaunt spade]

all of that is not worth 1.3k

[inner siren]

i got help from friend cause ive got no clue on what to get rn with all the prices

[gaunt spade]

yea thats a bad build for 1.3k

[inner siren]

im on a 1080 ti rn with i7 9th gen

[obsidian cosmos]

what the fuck

[tidal geyser]

hm, not the worst specs

[inner siren]

i wanna upgrade this year though while i can before everything shoots up again

[tidal geyser]

shoots up again?

[tidal geyser]

anyhow 14600k/kf and a 4070 can go a long way

[gaunt spade]

1.3k tho is stiff

[tidal geyser]

i would try and hit a 4070 ti super or smn

[inner siren]

ebay exists

[tidal geyser]

did you think i meant new for any of this?

[inner siren]

god no

only stuff im buying new is prob psu cpu and the ssd

[empty quartz]

:3

[tidal geyser]

ngl i buy all my things used, but psu i would do new if you buy it part for part

[inner siren]

i js dont know what to get reality wise with 1.3k

[gaunt spade]

better than a 3080

[tidal geyser]

14600k and 4070 ti super

[inner siren]

if i can get my hands on one

[inner siren]

cheers

[gaunt spade]

for 1300 i can build 14600k ddr4 32 and a 9070xt

i think if you try and get lucky you can do that too

[inner siren]

time to scounge on ebay

[gaunt spade]

ebay expensive

[tidal geyser]

iv done it

uno day

[gaunt spade]

14600k 185$
z690 d4 board 95$
cpu cooler 19$
32gb ram 110$
case fans 45$
psu 45$
ssd 1tb 75$
9070xt 725$
this is how i calculated it

[inner siren]

whered u find a ssd for 75 bucks

[gaunt spade]

used

[inner siren]

ah

[gaunt spade]

everything here used besides cpu, cpu cooler,case fans, 9070xt

[inner siren]

fair enough

ty fr imma get ahead and start looking

[ivory mountain]

u can do a lot better than those two for a 1.3k build lol

[silent marten]

I don't have any "offline" friends who have the interests i have.
The pc is actually for me and my family. as my laptop is in it's death state, my mom even can't use it so my dad's buying it

[modern sage]

hello what does this mean, i have this problem after I used the w10 media creation tool to fix my OS

it seems that only image files are being affected by this so far

[swift thorn]

it means onedrive isn't turned on. which is good news.

[modern sage]

yeah well i cant access my image files, so tell me how do i remove onedrive from the equation?

oh nevermind it works?

i just clicked on repair n reset on the photo app

[empty quartz]

no

[obtuse yew]

Two 8400fs for 120 bucks

[grizzled frost]

you got robbed for being charged that much

[obtuse yew]

I'm seeing them sell consistently on eBay for that same cost, and auctioning for 90-100

[grizzled frost]

doesn’t mean they’re actually worth that much

[obtuse yew]

Doesn't matter, it means that people are still willing to pay that much anyway

I just needed a testing CPU anyways, I'll keep one and sell the other

Does anyone know where I can buy an x299 delidding and direct die cooling kit? I have an i9-7900x I want to overclock

I tried looking online and didn't find much for sale, most listings are discontinued

[tidal geyser]

are you using it?

[tired bear]

all you need is a vice

[tidal geyser]

what are you doing that is only maxing out one thread

[graceful heath]

nothing

i only have roblox and discord open

[nimble arrow]

What about direct die cooling? I would need a contact frame and offsets no?

[grizzled frost]

correct

[nimble arrow]

I cannot find any for sale

[tired bear]

its 9y old platform, extreme overclockers left it years ago

I think amd is cheaper because its software is entirely worse

I spent more money on a amd pc for it to perform 10x worse than my intel pc

Now I’m buying another pc and I’m never getting amd again

[balmy tapir]

L bad take

[balmy tapir]

damn not a bad deal either

make sure you avoid updating the firmware or atleast make sure you only update it to one that supports ndless

[spring latch]

its the CX I, and the ndless people managed to cook out ndless 4.5.5

[balmy tapir]

ah neat

convenient then. i haven't used an nspire properly in a bit lol

[craggy cove]

do they know?

other side

[grizzled frost]

50/50 chance it even works

[craggy cove]

i mean the seller said they used it for a while...

[craggy cove]

ok it has worked up until now

seller :clueless:

[balmy tapir]

no name samsung clone, its a gamble for sure

[craggy cove]

is it a gamble

seems like certain failure

the page on the ssd doesnt even work

[balmy tapir]

page on the ssd?

[craggy cove]

the delaige.com thing

leads to malware lmao

after ublock tried to tell me no like 8 times

how ethical is this

[balmy tapir]

buying a ram heatsink?

[craggy cove]

i have a 12400f and a bunch of other parts left over, i just have no gpu, i think im gonna sell it as a pc

but my ram is green and ugly

[stray portal]

What if the heatsink gets mildly warm we need a heatsink for the heatsink

[craggy cove]

active cooling is a must

[craggy cove]

liars

[craggy cove]

are siren hobbyists a thing

[balmy tapir]

i mean to be more honest id probably look for unbranded heatsink, but its fine to buy a heatsink

[craggy cove]

like fire alarm enthusiasts

[stray portal]

Hinge Problems would never lie to me

[spring latch]

autism basically

[spring latch]

yep

[balmy tapir]

hobbiests exist everywhere

[craggy cove]

hyperx ones are the cheapest cause idk

[stray portal]

You probably shouldnt sell it, you can get a cheap gpu and play anything with it

[spring latch]

I love having a PC that sucks by modern standards but is perfect for what I do

[craggy cove]

nah i have my own pc already, i just have some stuff i bought a while back

[stray portal]

turn it into a server

[craggy cove]

haswell is perfectly okay to me even after getting a 7500f

[spring latch]

my the specs:
Core i5-7400
24GB DDR4-2133
4GB AMD RX 580 MSI ARMOR OC

[craggy cove]

cause i really need one

[stray portal]

Why the lock

[craggy cove]

16gb + 8gb 🔥

[spring latch]

oh no

[craggy cove]

idk i assume bitlocker

[spring latch]

its 3 8GB sticks

[craggy cove]

zamn

[stray portal]

Is bitlocker like a 365 thing

[craggy cove]

its a useless thing for 99% of people

[spring latch]

the first 2 are in slots 2 and 4, the remaining 8GB stick is in slot 1, which allows intel flex to work

[craggy cove]

and people usually learn about it against their will when it takes their drive hostage

id sell the 8gb ngl

[stray portal]

I dont like anything cloud or backup, i do my backups on a usb stick and im happy 😡😡

[spring latch]

not with that im doing

[craggy cove]

windows uses ram simply cause its unused

if u mean the 8gb doing nothing

[stray portal]

Im so happy that intel is back but they came back during the worst time, when ddr5 is very expensive

[spring latch]

indeed, I dont know why firefox and vscode and wsl alone use 8GB

[stray portal]

Windows handles ram differently, it will allocate the ram to a program if it needs it so its not actually taking up 8gb on idle

[balmy tapir]

well vscode is an electron app no?

[spring latch]

it is, which is half the reason

[balmy tapir]

and wsl makes sense to need ram

[stray portal]

Idle ram is kind of a useless metric imo

[balmy tapir]

firefox is browser which also all eat ram tbh

[spring latch]

yeah but its kinda dynamic

makes sense tho i have like 9 tabs open

[balmy tapir]

my Firefox with ~8 tabs is using 1gb lol

[spring latch]

thats because its linux firefox

windows seems to allocate a little extra RAM than the program is using

[stray portal]

Firefox is kind of a ram hog idk why people praise it

[balmy tapir]

no browser is good on ram atp

[spring latch]

8GB with 9 tabs vs 12GB with 7 tabs

[balmy tapir]

chrome is just evil and i dont want to use it

[stray portal]

Im on vivaldi with like 20 tabs open and only takes up 500mb

[spring latch]

not even their fault, Javascript and Typescript have evolved so much that their parsers are MASSIVE

but it could be made dynamic at the cost of a tiny bit of speed

[stray portal]

I have 32gb ram and my pc handles it well, even when i run tons of stuff i never max it

[balmy tapir]

i haven't use vivaldi in a minute

[lapis talon]

Rate the new drip

[craggy cove]

i can only find problems not praise sry

[fringe prairie]

[lapis talon]

Fair enough, I can as well

[craggy cove]

ublock

[lapis talon]

I like it better than chrome

[craggy cove]

that too

[stray portal]

Is it really? Mozilla gets all their funding from google

[craggy cove]

firefox is nice boba, chrome is too kiki

[craggy cove]

how is that related

[fringe prairie]

it’s gecko based, not chromium based

[lapis talon]

This was the old drip

[fringe prairie]

funding from google doesn’t mean anything lol

safari and epiphany are two more non-chromium based browsers

[craggy cove]

skinny case with no intake, nice upgrade

[lapis talon]

It did have 3 intake fans lol, 3x 140mm

[spring latch]

it looks like macOS

[stray portal]

Financial dependence on your competitor isnt reallt that good

[craggy cove]

where?

[stray portal]

Safari is good but only for apple, and epiphany is slop

[lapis talon]

Ignore the messy cables

[stray portal]

Also from my own experience, firefox and many of its forks are slower

[lapis talon]

Dang this was a good minute ago

[stray portal]

Well on youtube and such i know google purposely slows them down but everywhere else its weird

[lapis talon]

Just the wallpaper lol

[lapis talon]

Does Roblox support 1440p now

Or is it still 1080p

[spring latch]

idk

[lapis talon]

Saw that it does use your GPU quite a bit now so that's nice

But still not nearly enough

[unborn cargo]

it actually does 4k

[lapis talon]

But no GPU 🥲

[unborn cargo]

😭 fr

[lapis talon]

You'll be stuck in the stone age with 2 fps

[unborn cargo]

bro im pretty sure it wont run

[barren breach]

So i built my wife her first pc, used a i7 8700k and rtx 3080. Would it be worth buying an i9 9900k, or getting a different mobo and cpu all together?

Seems like the performance gain wouldnt be all that much for the money

[ebon marlin]

@craggy cove homosexual

I found a OnePlus 12 for 120€ only had some minor scratches and battery health at 97%

Can't really see em properly had to be directly under light to see them even

It's also still under warranty so I should be able to get it fixed

[ebon marlin]

Isn't the same phone on AliExpress for the same price but with 12gb ram lol

[craggy cove]

or 180€ for the same specs

i dont want to be the guy to point that out lol

i already predict a debate about "oh its china tho" or something

[ebon marlin]

It comes from france though

[gusty cloud]

Hey guys. Would love some advice. I sent the merch message right at the beginning of after dark. I think Linus was confused by my sentiment so i m going to also ask this to the community: my friend is on AM4, and has like a ryzen 5 3000 and is trying to find a new CPU upgrade without changing motherboard and isn't a new platform. Especially since the 5800x3d is essentially dead. I wanted to know if the XT CPUs are good upgrade?

[craggy cove]

well they dont know that

[craggy cove]

yep

[ebon marlin]

Lowkey I'd just send the picture that's all

[craggy cove]

i think its funnier if its left unsold for eternity

[craggy cove]

the xt is very questionable in value

the 5700x can be had for like 100 if youre lucky rn

the 5500 is basically a 3600 here

(very non scientific)

also damn i do not remember ddr5 having such a big impact on alder lake performance

[ebon marlin]

Rate this gaming console

[craggy cove]

shouldnt have sold my 870 evo 1tb for 65€ out of 10

if i hadnt sold it so early id have a whole ass 15€ extra

[ebon marlin]

Crazy

I found this 860 Evo 2tb from a shitty old pc in 100% health barely any use

100gb written

[craggy cove]

this seems fun until i remembered they perform like a 1050

hm

i have no use for this

[ebon marlin]

No z1 extreme is really good

[craggy cove]

BUT...

[ebon marlin]

Oh wait

[craggy cove]

non extreme

z1 mild

[gusty cloud]

Thanks for you help I just double checked thebspecs and it was actually a 5600x not a 3600x

[ebon marlin]

I misread Ekraan as Extreme

[craggy cove]

yeah no point

[craggy cove]

atleast its not that logitech cloud thing

[gusty cloud]

So she pretty much has the best CPU she can get and any upgrade in the 5000 is minimal/bad value. Thanks for the advice!

[craggy cove]

i do not understand why people buy these

but thats just my world view

[craggy cove]

yep, money is better spent elsewhere

[ebon marlin]

At work there was a 2tb 860 Evo 2.5 drive and 512gb 970 Evo 512gb NVMe and 2x16gb Crucial ram in a shitty i7 6700HQ Gtx 960/860M laptop

I stole allat

[ebon marlin]

Legion Go mogs it to oblivion

[craggy cove]

"its logitech tho"

[gusty cloud]

It jusr sucks cause she REALLY doesn't want to do a platform upgrade cause of tight budget but I'll see what advice I can give

[craggy cove]

what gpu tho

[latent gull]

I mean, if your already cloud gaming, it’s not that bad

[ebon marlin]

Cloud gaming is pointless

You need really good and stable wifi for it to be remotely good

If you're traveling a good and stable wifi is very rare to come by

[wheat torrent]

My friend has unplayable experience with Geforce Now

Fiber, Ethernet

[snow mauve]

unplayable how? what's being streamed

[craggy cove]

faceit pro league cs2

i lost so much elo on my logitech g cloud

[snow mauve]

cloud 'gaming' ideas, i assume you mean similar to like ps now? streaming legacy stuff? cdn network and edge availability. you can have blazing internet b ut something so latency sensitive can have a lot of bottlenecks along the way

how many components along the way between that streaming source and you?

ideally people can play anything with a dumb terminal , controller, and awesome network connection, thast the future but we're not there -- yet

[gusty cloud]

Its more that her and her sister are vtubers and trying to keep everything going while gaming. Evidently theres a CPU bottleneck but I think its a GPU (its a 3060)

[snow mauve]

catitude

[craggy cove]

id think such a use case would benefit from a better gpu, but then again i have no experience there

[wheat torrent]

Any game

Very compressed and very high latency

[craggy cove]

bites za dusto

[snow mauve]

yea, so a good idea dumbed down due to architecture constraints

[wheat torrent]

Yeah, unplayable

Very dumbed down

[snow mauve]

maybe a cdn with a lot of edge nodes close to the customer using an array of hundreds of blackwell GPUs would do the trick

[candid cairn]

Yo guys i switched ram and suddenly i cant control my asus mb and case fans rgb, why?

I can't access lots of apps

Use aurora store or fdroid

I do

I can't access certain apps because Huawei uses it's own webview instead of Android Webview

Atleast xiaomi makes it unique but honor just copies it poorly

[ebon marlin]

Honor and Huawei have basically the same UI

They share the same icons aswell

[stray portal]

Yeah but huawei has more nice touches

[stray portal]

Not at all, i think its because of their very low sales they cant justify them

Like getting a display phone but nobody will buy it

Huawei has its cons

i want that huawei tri fold

On my Oneplus it's a very long menu and I can have search on my home menu

[ebon marlin]

[tawny jewel]

[stray portal]

Samsung should really fix the lower bezels on their A series its horrible

[abstract wigeon]

honestly i can see why that would be an issue, but for me its not at all, im on 90 on this phone ive had for 5 years

[ebon marlin]

Very good deal but consider caseswapping

[abstract wigeon]

good price

[stray portal]

Otherwise samsung is the best android in the market imo, good photos, good software and good integration with windows and such and other things its basically the apple ecosystem but for normals

What igpu does it have?

Trying to search but can't seem to find anything else other than "Intel graphics"

[stray portal]

Why are you laughing at me 😡 😡 i cant dry if outside is raining

[abstract wigeon]

iirc 336H is the most suped up core 5 without an arc gpu, and the 338H is the same thing with a B370

as someone who doesnt need a gpu, 336H looks great

[tired bear]

try spinning it real fast

[stray portal]

The computer?

Or the cloth

[tired bear]

no no, the pizza

[ebon marlin]

Any idea at what price point 336H laptops would be?

300 series doesn't exist here in Finland yet

[abstract wigeon]

zero idea cus there are zero out there

[ebon marlin]

Damn

[tired bear]

yes i got an idea

[ebon marlin]

Laptop manufacturers should start selling barebones laptops would help push alot of stock

You only see barebones systems with minipcs

[abstract wigeon]

same here, theres a couple 300 series laptops i can see but only the highest end. very annoying as i cant find a single release date, or laptop lineup for the lower tier skus

id guess 600-800 possibly but no idea

[tired bear]

[without ram]

[ebon marlin]

MSI is releasing macbook neo competitor with ultra 3 300 series at the same price point

Also 256/512 storage configs

For some reason

[tired bear]

as long as it has m.2 its fine

[ebon marlin]

599/699€ 512 also gets you a fingerprint reader same as the Neo

Probably also comes with 8gb of ram so it's DOA

[random gyro]

very fair comparison lads

[ebon marlin]

Mhm

Obviously comparing at the same price point aswell

[abstract wigeon]

5090 mobile looks ass holy

[ebon marlin]

1600p medium is so random aswell

[lunar axle]

very fair

[random gyro]

sponsored video so im not surprised

[lunar axle]

LTT has said that they cant be bought for thier option

[tidal geyser]

why not use a actual igpu meant for light gaming like the b390 or 890 or 8060s

that would actually be interesting

[shy saffron]

Is this kind of an issue pointing a faulty OR Failing GPU??

Note: that white flicker was on both displays

[stray portal]

Most likely driver issue

[lunar axle]

Maybe a bad cable? Tried switching?

[lunar axle]

Could be

[south arrow]

What is ddu for 200 on the board

[stray portal]

Use ddu without safe mode and reinstall amd adrenalin

[shy saffron]

Im on latest drivers - 7600x and 7900 gre

Rolled back to even old and supposedly stable - still had game crashes and black screen crashes

[lunar axle]

only happend during one game

[shy saffron]

Cable issue when white flickers was noticed on both displays??

[stray portal]

Thats how i fixed my problems, sometimes if i kept a browser or electron app on screen for too long it would freeze and "burn in" to the screen

Like the parts of the window would remain the same even if i did stuff

[lunar axle]

Oh it was both, only saw it on the right

Pubg match return timing - post 30 minute mark

Gta v enhanced - doesnt run more than 10 minutes

[stray portal]

Yep its a driver issue

Colour of website page - was playing monopoly with friends 😅

Hello everynyan

[lunar axle]

yeah a driver issue then or maybe thermals but doubt it

[south arrow]

[shy saffron]

25.12.1 supposed current

Memory hovered around 70-75 degree C last furmark test

Gpu around 80s

Last week^

[lunar axle]

over or under 80?

[stray portal]

Try to reinstall amd software it likely got corrupted

It happened to me aswell on a 5700x and 7800xt

[south arrow]

Be like that sometimes

[shy saffron]

Approx i can recall - possibly over

[cosmic fulcrum]

hi

[shy saffron]

The fact that I have done 5 driver Installs in past 10 days 🫠

I foresee a deeper issue

Hence came here

[south arrow]

Look up a ddu tutorial

[cosmic fulcrum]

would an a520m chipset motherboard need a bios upgrade for an amd ryzen 5 5500?

[stray portal]

Use ddu, the amd repair doesnt work

[ocean axle]

Have you tried a new OS?

[south arrow]

Then if that fails and testing on a diffrent display doesnt fix then you'll know its pooped

[left crag]

Anyone have a linus tech tip on how to make my cpu faster?

[shy saffron]

Been on ddu only

Hearing of amd repair first time

[ivory mountain]

put voltage to 2.1v

[left crag]

It is at 1.5V currently

[ivory mountain]

what cpu lmao

[snow mauve]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8yRlA7jqEQ for anybody that's into this stuff. i started playing with nurbs and old school gaussian splats, this is a whol othe level. can you imagine matrix being filmed with this tech

[left crag]

xeon x3450

[snow mauve]

the key is proper initial capture/good lighting

[south arrow]

Dont listen to Vyr lol

[ocean axle]

Potentially, if buying new almost certainly no

[ivory mountain]

oh alright i was finna say lmao

[snow mauve]

but i can literally recreate your childhood bedroom and spawn it live and inject it into any environment

[ivory mountain]

hey i know my stuff i was js trolling 😭

[south arrow]

Just for that context keks

[cosmic fulcrum]

i used to power on the backup cores this makes it 2x faster

[left crag]

What how

How to enable

[cosmic fulcrum]

but it comes with many risks and wont work if your default cores already failed

[stray portal]

on my table it looks nice

[left crag]

This is my

[left crag]

How to tell if default cores failed

[cosmic fulcrum]

tbh idk but like using common sense if its older than 7yrs or smth then some cores might've probably failed

[snow mauve]

i've def seen worse lol

[cosmic fulcrum]

i can send you the video on dms

[balmy tapir]

that is NOT a proper scale of seattle

[left crag]

How to enable backup cores

[stray portal]

They call me razer fella i have 4 razer products on my table

[snow mauve]

its better than this, i was called to a job to try to correct this:

[left crag]

This is the fan i have in my pc

[south arrow]

I have a few of those on my original xbox keks

Ole reliable

[left crag]

12V 3A

[snow mauve]

may wanna do a spritz of air in there 😄

[ocean axle]

Ahh the classic, LBM: Load Bearing Modem

[south arrow]

Lol I cleaned all of my old systems fresh mx4 applied

[snow mauve]

and it should worry you this was at phoenix airport

[cosmic fulcrum]

the video was deleted from youtube you gotta find out yourself i am sorry

[ocean axle]

Oh that doesn't surprise me in the slightest

[left crag]

Does anyone here know how to enable backup cores on a cpu for extra performance?

[ocean axle]

You don't

[snow mauve]

yea that's kinda vague

[south arrow]

You use as many cores as needed uwu

[left crag]

This guy @cosmic fulcrum told me i can

[ocean axle]

What they are likely referring to is that some cpus had extra cores disabled by firmware, and you could just re-enable them

[snow mauve]

i love immich context searching. i just did "bad cable setup" lol.

[ivory mountain]

guys i can officially say ive seen it ALL. people are running fucking hypervisor cracked games to avoid paying for it

letting random people access your HYPER fucking VISOR

[ocean axle]

This is extremely uncommon

[south arrow]

Or configuratated in certain circumstances

[left crag]

Let me test

[snow mauve]

rogue but doesnt that require actual soldering and high level of risk

(the enabling the locked cores)

[cold skiff]

Hat is hyper visor. It sounds like a Bonnie blue stunt

[ocean axle]

Have you considered them being wrong?

[snow mauve]

speaking of blunt

oh you said stunt
