[stark flicker]

I said "Maybe it is capotes" (en anglais)

[supple basin]

Yeah I'm aware molex

[fierce breach]

Molex is fine

[deep musk]

[supple basin]

Not for 150w I think

[fierce breach]

The data connection is whats throwing me off

[fierce breach]

Depends on how the PSU is internally wired

[supple basin]

I was doing this for a much more reasonable laptop egpu build with a 3060 ti

Was trying to troubleshoot the aliexpress riser

[fierce breach]

12VO Molex can support 150W over 2 wires easily, though 3 is preferred

[sharp ivy]

I've powered a 9800GTX+ and Sata HDD entirely off 2 sata connectors on a 350W psu from the Core 2 Duo era and never had an issue lol

[fierce breach]

SATA has more robust power delivery

MOLEX is just 1-3 wires

[deep musk]

Oof

[loud iris]

Guys and gals
What would be the absolute best GPU thermal paste in the market rn? Regardless of pricing

[deep musk]

Sata is rated at max 75w iirc

[fierce breach]

PTM or LM if you're very experienced

[sharp ivy]

4 wires

[steel umbra]

hy-p17

[sharp ivy]

sata is known for being janky for high power draw stuff

[deep musk]

Liquid Metal (im not responsible for any damage made to anything)

[kindred halo]

@deep musk
Radeon Software Installer said my hardware configuration isn't supported or such
I am going to switch the "Software Type" install to Driver Only

[fierce breach]

No, one of them is GND.

Most common implementation is 2 12V 1 GND. Some do 2 12V 2 GND

[deep musk]

Ohhh nicey idea

[fierce breach]

3 12V 1 GND is perfectly fine

[loud iris]

Not experienced
Isn't ptm a whole new TP pad replacement?

[steel umbra]

the question is… is lm a paste?

[undone star]

well yes i'm well aware of that, i'm just curious if someone has trailblazed before me and found one of these fly by night aliexpress/amazon companies that sells sub $20 cameras that aren't spyware lol

[kindred halo]

Or do you think I should do Minimal instead

[fierce breach]

Basically yes

[supple basin]

Cursed AF love it

[kindred halo]

This is after it errored btw, after the download finished

[tall sandal]

Just got my GPU

[steel umbra]

youtube is your best friend

[deep musk]

Theoretically molex has 1 5v and 2 12v cables

[tall sandal]

price was good here, not much more than regular 5060

[steel umbra]

my 3090 faster

[deep musk]

Try driver only

[kindred halo]

Alright

[tall sandal]

yea

[steel umbra]

ajajajaja xdd

[tall sandal]

I use 1080p

[fierce breach]

Yes for standard implementation, due to small contacts and wires. However if you were to push 12V0 through a SATA connector using most of the pins, you can get a higher limit

[steel umbra]

120p is recommended for an nvydia rtx geforce 5060 ti /s

[deep musk]

Yes but that’s not a standard cable

[fierce breach]

Not at all

[loud iris]

Yeah, I seem to be seeing insane reviews. Thanks mate!

[supple basin]

I've never in my life heard of sata power for high load

[limpid ivy]

Lol finally took off the earpads on my HD560s, damn the definitely needed cleaning.

[steel umbra]

the pads attract hair so much

[loud iris]

Yeah that seems like a reach in my case
One little mistake and the card would be cooked innit?

[terse pewter]

enjoy!!!!

[loud iris]

I'll look into it regardless it seems kinda interesting :)

[fierce breach]

No, that's LM

PTM is nonconductive so messing up just means wasting material

[tall sandal]

Thx

[steel umbra]

ptm is non conductive

[loud iris]

Oh that ain't that big a deal

[tall sandal]

I’m a beefy CPU kinda guy, got a Ryzen 9 9900x

[limpid ivy]

Oh yea alot, I was using a lint roller to remove them plus any other build up before and after a light wash in dish soap & water.

[steel umbra]

lm ❌ conductive
ptm ✅ non conductive
paste ✅ non con

[tall sandal]

I care abt cpu a lot tbh

Cuz not only for gaming, other things too

[fierce breach]

Though if you're gonna use paste over PTM, Alumichill from Thermal Dynamics (formerly TCRS) is pretty goated

[iron glen]

but
its liquid metal, its cooler than thermal paste

[loud iris]

Alr, Ty :)

[steel umbra]

truth

everyone need lm

[fierce breach]

But not everyone can be trusted to apply it

[iron glen]

i advise everyone to do their own pours

[fierce breach]

And not every cooler is designed to be safe with it

[ivory mountain]

i dont think so

[stark flicker]

I had lm years ago

It cold soldered my cooler to the cpu

[fierce breach]

LM is liquid metal

[steel umbra]

i recommend spilling lm on all the parts where 12vbus is and power it

[fierce breach]

Its a gallium alloy

[stark flicker]

It's really shitty long term

[fierce breach]

Yeah LM breakdown is usually destructive. TP breakdown is just annoying

[iron glen]

i wish it could rust

[fierce breach]

Considering alumichill uses an aluminum filler instead of silicone, I wonder if it has destructive breakdown or not

[steel umbra]

i love when my cooler and ihs are corroded

[tall sandal]

This cooler good?

[iron glen]

the copper pipes on air coolers can oxidize i think, idk if that changes preformance

[stark flicker]

Yeah

[tall sandal]

Planning on getting this, what do you guys think

[fierce breach]

Liquid Freezer has always been decent

Just remember with any AIO do a dry test run to make sure the pump pumps

[sharp ivy]

Very noice

[steel umbra]

it does but copper is decently corrosion resistant so it usually doesn’t get into deeper layers

[stark flicker]

Why do you buy super good components EXCEPT for the one that counts the most, the gpu? @tall sandal

[iron glen]

ah

[supple basin]

You woulda gotten a 13700k then

[fierce breach]

Because the PSU and the motherboard count the most, not the GPU

[tall sandal]

Cuz I may upgrade later

Parents budget is not extremely high

[iron glen]

is the motherboard really that important?

[stark flicker]

Up to a point, for a cheap computer yes, for a computer that already has a good enough mb and psu there are heavy diminishing returns

[fierce breach]

Yes because power delivery systems can fail anywhere on a motherboard for any reason. Buying a nicer one generally comes with a longer period of reliability

PSU and motherboard are the two components most likely to fail first

[mental geyser]

i kinda need help with something non-pc related and this is kinda the only place i can (maybe) ask help in for this specific situation
but im still not sure

[steel umbra]

gpu: cpu?
cpu: yeah? where are you i don’t see you
ram: where are you cpu??
cpu: here, here!!
ram: where!!!!
hdd: omg help
ssd: where is the chipset??!!?

[stark flicker]

That's exactly why you should take a good enough cpu with good enough cheap cooling and other "good enough" parts and buy a better gpu because 99% of the time when gaming you'll be gpu limited instead of whatever else

[iron glen]

i ask for help with engines in here so ask away

[fierce breach]

If its a board question I can prob answer it

[mental geyser]

uhm. its a controller issue
i dont have any consoles so i just
use this one controller i have for games that "need" it or are just better with it, like invincible VS (probably)

[fierce breach]

so whats the problem

[mental geyser]

ive been having issues with it lately and i realised it has
some kind of stick drift?

[fierce breach]

How long have you had it

[iron glen]

is it constant

[mental geyser]

almost a year

[mental geyser]

yes, the left stick is like going down halfway constantly and it wont let me do upwards diagonal inputs with it

[iron glen]

smells like a busted stick thing

[fierce breach]

If it was a cheap roller get a new one. Otherwise replace the stick

Preferably with hall or tmr sticks

[iron glen]

hall effects are allegedly reliable

[fierce breach]

Not allegedly, they just are

[mental geyser]

its always like this

[tall sandal]

It’s not only for games

[mental geyser]

awh man, there goes my 20 bucks

[fierce breach]

Yeah thats stick drift your pots are toast

[fierce breach]

Spend min 50 on one

[iron glen]

i say allegedly because i haven't tried them yet
i also have a broken xbox controller and havent got to fixing it yet

[tall sandal]

Like I do things which take advantage of the CPU, I am engineering student

[fierce breach]

Make sure you calibrate it after replacing pots with halls

Theres a software for it

[stark flicker]

yeah and for why ? Almost all use cases a 9600X will be way more than good enough

"engineering student", yeah a 9600x will be enough

[tall sandal]

Nah I notice the difference in multi core

in programs I use

I had a beefy laptop CPU, Ryzen 9 8940hx, had to return due to bad thermals. Just QC was bad

[mental geyser]

ill do that when i can.

itll prob take a while to find a good one but, still

[tall sandal]

It had mid tier single core but high multi core

[mental geyser]

i just hope it wont do... that again in like 4 months

[iron glen]

alr what do you think of this pc im planning

[tall sandal]

Lmao

funny guy haha, bro poor cpu

[sharp ivy]

Haswell 10 series

[fierce breach]

Never heard of qoltec, so why?

Also 16 gigs of ram in an RTX 6000 machine is uhhhh strange

[brave brook]

why only RTX PRO 6000 ? You want B200 for real

[iron glen]

the store didnt have that

[mental geyser]

yeah this is all i can do with my joystick, ignore the text

[iron glen]

it has big number and low price

[fierce breach]

you are dumb

[brave brook]

there is a reason, B200 is not sold as GPU

[fierce breach]

I am dumb

[brave brook]

this is how they sell B200's

but then on other side, a single B200 has 192GB VRAM

[iron glen]

what am i looking at

[brave brook]

AI serverwith 8x B200

[iron glen]

oh i thought that thing was one gpu

[mental geyser]

wait a minute.

[mental geyser]

somethings not right.
the controller i got can be used either as a PS4 controller or a Xbox 360 controller
the PS4 inputs have the stick drift, but xbox 360 is completely fine. what the hell is going on with that?

[iron glen]

how much would this suitcase run me

[iron glen]

mmm
how queer

[brave brook]

$500k per node

[iron glen]

per node?
so 500k per one of the bricks in there?

[brave brook]

no, 500k for one 8x box

[iron glen]

oh

[brave brook]

8xB200 with 180GB VRAM per node is $400k or so

[supple basin]

Maybe higher dead zone in Xbox profile?

[iron glen]

can't wait to pick this thing up as ewaste in 40 years for like 200 bucks

[brave brook]

(well, depending on where you buy)

[brave brook]

you really won't do that. The node has enormous power requirements and it is completely propiertary

one unit uses around 10 to 15 kW of power

it's 8x GPU + 2x Intel Xeon CPU plus all the crap around it

to be precise, here is B200 specs

It is 142.4kg per one unit

[steel umbra]

99/10, better gpu would be better

[fierce breach]

how are they fitting 15kw into a board that thin

Or is that why the whole thing is covered in big heatsink

[iron glen]

probably

[brave brook]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjU89rZa8HQ

[iron glen]

1.44tb in that

i expected more ngl

[brave brook]

8x 192GB VRAM

[fierce breach]

Do you think Nvidia would send people to their house to kill them with hammers if someone got their hands on one of those and did a teardown on it and labeled all the IC's and made a boardview

[iron glen]

fair point

[brave brook]

that is literally the biggest VRAM GPU in the world

[iron glen]

no i think it would be swift and silent

[frail sequoia]

Im thinking about getting a hp z820 and putting in 2 intel xeon e5 2680 v2 cpus inside with 128gb ram (probs would ask my parents for it for my birthday in august)

[brave brook]

what is the use case ? cause not really worth it imo

[frail sequoia]

Mostly 3d modeling, fl studio and game design with some 1080p/1440p gaming from time to time

My 6600xt would be going inside it since it has like a 1000w psu inside and alot of then have gtx 680's inside

[stark flicker]

not worth

[amber pasture]

I’m trembling right meow

[brave brook]

spent twice the price for noctua deshroud

[ivory mountain]

https://tenor.com/view/yixuan-shifu-melon-zzz-zenless-zone-zero-gif-11921714301028383471

peak

[amber pasture]

it was the same price at microcenter as it was on Amazon but for some reason it kept declining on Amazon so I went in person after some wait

[brave brook]

i would go with at least Socket 2011-3 based system (cause DDR4), ideally Socket 2066 based (cause AVX512), but you do you

[amber pasture]

just so you know I love Noctua even if it is expensive so I don’t care for any remarks like that

I have a brown build to accommodate it so I’m very happy

[sharp ivy]

Epic

[stark flicker]

I wouldn't go for any old platforms, those cpu are so dated it's insane

A cheap recent cpu will just be plain better

[brave brook]

i mean 2066 at least AVX512, good for CPU LLM interference

[stark flicker]

It will be expensive and unreliable (cuz used and old) for no reason whatsoever

[sharp ivy]

Agreed, get a Core 2 Quad instead

[stark flicker]

I had a 2011-v3, 5820k, years ago, it wasn't the best but not the worst too

It's worse than most random current CPUs nowadays

[deep musk]

I’d rather have a good, decent xeon than a brand new less performant cpu

[stark flicker]

It won't be less performant than those old xeons

[brave brook]

uhm....

[brave brook]

6-core Ryzen 7600X beats the living crap of a 18c/36t Haswell-E Xeon E5-2699v3

also beats Threadripper 2950x

[deep musk]

They said cheap

[sharp ivy]

Core 2 Quad

[brave brook]

only reason for older Xeons and Threadrippers is PCIe lanes. End of positives

[ivory mountain]

7600x is cheap lol its not even 200 dollars

[deep musk]

And dollar per core is really good

[deep musk]

That’s not considered cheap, that’s a less expensive cpu

[stark flicker]

2 old xeons + a dual socket motherboard that works + 128GB ram isn't the cheapest setup there is tbh

[deep musk]

Hell yeah

[ivory mountain]

in what world is a sub-$200 cpu on the am5 platform not cheap? 😭

whats considered cheap?

[deep musk]

Who talked about a two Xeon setup?

[stark flicker]

the guy who wants to buy them

[deep musk]

Well that’s fucking dumb

[azure topaz]

floppa

[terse pewter]

floppa

[stark flicker]

the start of this convo is a guy that wants a dual old xeon + 128GB ram lol

[sharp ivy]

I want 16GB DDR2 system

that would be epic

[azure topaz]

[deep musk]

Didn’t know this stupidity of a setup was mentioned

[ivory mountain]

mrbest tank 4 money!

[terse pewter]

noooo who hacked flopper

[stark flicker]

So I'd wager he can buy a used 5700x3d or whatever is good used nowadays idk and be done with it

[odd marsh]

this is fire

[azure topaz]

its peak

keeps the mods on their toes

[deep musk]

(Old threadrippers/epyc and xeons are really useful for cheap high core counts CPUs)

[brave brook]

also pretty much impossible unless you go dual socket system. Technically P45 supports up to 16GB RAM, but i don't think i ever seen 4GB DDR2 modules

[azure topaz]

it just depends

[sharp ivy]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfoX8BbYl_Q

[stark flicker]

"3d modeling, fl studio and game design"

Not even something where you need that many cores

[deep musk]

You’re not getting a 32 core cpu/system for less than 180 CAD (the price of an epyc 7452)

[deep musk]

That sentence was meant for in general

[ivory mountain]

floppa give me a job i want $50/hr

[brave brook]

those are registered/FBDIMM, not your usual DDR2

[azure topaz]

come build pcs with me

well i dont build but i handle repairs now

[stark flicker]

doesn't pay a lot no ?

[azure topaz]

meh

i get 18 or sumn not that bad

[deep musk]

Ohhhh yeshshshhssh I’ve heard about this stuff

[ivory mountain]

dumbass college charging $125 for an online book i dont wanna buy ts i dont even need it to pass

[sharp ivy]

Makes sense, the DDR2 in my older Core 2 rig and my laptop are both maxed out at 4gb cause of the CPU

[brave brook]

i had 4x2GB in one 775 system once

[sharp ivy]

Wait with what CPU

I might have one

[frail sequoia]

Ddr4 is expensive as fuck tho

[brave brook]

Q9450 i think ?

but maybe it was with E8400, it was ages ago

[azure topaz]

ddr5 is expensive and ddr4 is reasoanble for people who have jobs realistically

[sharp ivy]

Ah ok I don't think I have one of those

[frail sequoia]

Plus my budget would be like £500-£550 max

[sharp ivy]

neat tho

[deep musk]

Ecc ddr3 is soooo expensive for what it is

[deep musk]

Save up

[brave brook]

me who bought 4x 32GB DDR4-2400 ECC REG for 25 euros a piece 14 months ago

[stark flicker]

buy a consumer grade and modern cpu

[sharp ivy]

wait my Core 2 Duo E7400 DOES support more RAM, up to 16GB!

my motherboard kinda sucks tho

[deep musk]

Before the crisis one stick of 16 gb ddr3 ecc costed me 40 CAD

[brave brook]

realistically for me the issue is that AM4 upgrades are non-existent (5950x/5900xt is not on used market at all, 5700x3d and 5800x3d make no sense), so my 64GB b-die kit sits unused

[sharp ivy]

I'd have to find 2 8GB DDR2 sticks

[frail sequoia]

Its like 80 quid for 128gb ecc ddr3 1066mhz and 250 quid for 256gb 1600mhz

[deep musk]

which is a criminally insane price

[brave brook]

max is 4GB sticks imo

[deep musk]

Way too expensive for the shit performance you’ll get

[frail sequoia]

Better than my r5 4500 and 16gb ddr4

[azure topaz]

this guy has an am4 computer

[stark flicker]

yeah and you'll have a garbage computer

Lots of memory serves what when a potato with two wires will have better computing power ?

[azure topaz]

and wont just buy a 5900xt and some ram

[deep musk]

If you just max out the ram, trust me you’ll be better off

[azure topaz]

are we kidding LOL

[frail sequoia]

I kinda need alot of ram tho

Like minimum 32gb

[deep musk]

Buy more them

[sharp ivy]

yeah it's gonna be constrained by my mobo

[stark flicker]

Yeah then buy 32GB it's reasonable

[deep musk]

Im gonna explode

[frail sequoia]

In this economy, nice joke

[stark flicker]

128GB ddr3 is useless and dumb and you'll have a super slow unresponsive and unreliable computer

[sharp ivy]

no

why unreliable

[azure topaz]

buy a 5900xt and spend 200$ on ddr4 to accomodate it for your 500$ budget

[deep musk]

You’ll loose more money buying a whole fucking dead ddr3 platform than by simply getting more ram

[azure topaz]

or 5950x if its cheaper

[frail sequoia]

I need a new mobo and case tho already

[azure topaz]

so the solution is to downgrade

[ivory mountain]

i heard @clear canyon is buying my WHOLE birthday list for me

[deep musk]

No you don’t need them, you want them

[azure topaz]

i fw this, 🙄

[frail sequoia]

Yeah pretty much

[azure topaz]

i tried, enjoy your shitbox for whatever purposes you claim to "need"

[clear canyon]

Most ill give ya is a firm hand shake

I can add in a Canadian cent coin

[sharp ivy]

I got DVD for my birthday

[clear canyon]

Thats practically giving him debt

[deep musk]

Yayayayay

[stark flicker]

do you realise how insanely garbage the xeon you want are ? Like I'm pretty sure my cat calculates faster than them

[clear canyon]

Also, i just graduated from my uni 😁

[frail sequoia]

I kinda need them, I need wifi so im not using a shitty usb 2.0 dongle and why should I keep using a b450m ds3h v2 inside of a case that looks like its full size atx but doesn't support full size atx

[ivory mountain]

trust

[clear canyon]

Graduation was just a couple hours ago

[ivory mountain]

holy shit WWW i just registered for my freshman classes

[deep musk]

Nah, they aren’t produced anymore so they’ll be worth a ton one day (trust)

[frail sequoia]

Its 2.8ghz, 10 cores 20thrwleads each so double that is 20 cores 40 threads

[azure topaz]

5070TI just thrown in there huh

[clear canyon]

Thankyou :D

[iron glen]

whats the blurred item

[clear canyon]

Good luck on yours man, i believe in you

[ivory mountain]

something irl family related

[azure topaz]

40 threads of slow

[sharp ivy]

mhmm

[deep musk]

What’s the blackout thing? A dildo?

20 cores of mid

[azure topaz]

tryna sneak it in tho

[azure topaz]

yeah dont you have a 6 core

[iron glen]

is that worth studying
like will it be a fun time

[clear canyon]

Nope

[frail sequoia]

If ddr5 didn't shoot up before christmas I was gonna get that same cpu and get ddr5

[azure topaz]

get the ddr4 ones

[deep musk]

[sharp ivy]

I bought new RAM for christmas cause FB marketplace

[clear canyon]

It was easy for me, i had a 4.0 gpa the past 2 years and i had a shit ton of free time

[azure topaz]

14700K is an amazing chip even still

[frail sequoia]

Core ultra cpus are ddr5 only

[plush wren]

Good luck

[frail sequoia]

Has the issues been fixed?

[tall sandal]

Didn’t it have the defective manufacturing issues

[clear canyon]

Ryzen 3 1200 is better

[frail sequoia]

The ones that fry the cpu

[stark flicker]

Yes but you forget architectural improvement, which accounts for everything

[deep musk]

Yeshshshshhhs fb marketplace is insanely goated around my grandparent’s home

bro i said intel and i summoned this guy

[frail sequoia]

That case looks cool, what case is it?

[iron glen]

alr so imagine me, a happy jolly boy in his propeller hat graduating primary school
would you suggest i go and study IT after this

[tall sandal]

lmao, I use AMD

[vapid ibex]

Folk 😭💔

[tall sandal]

PCs at my school use like i7 14700K all of them

[azure topaz]

i said 14700K and got 3 pings in like 4 seconds tho

[tall sandal]

And some won’t turn on Bruhh

[deep musk]

Fucking hell, why did you have to summon that person

[sharp ivy]

Thanks, and it's an old ABS Vortex Leo case

[tall sandal]

At my schools computer lab

[azure topaz]

yeah its not my fault your school cant bios update their puters or cool them properly

[frail sequoia]

My college uses i5 10505 cpus in alot of their computers

[tall sandal]

The ones with core ultra 7 265k doesn’t do that, only the i7 14700k

[clear canyon]

If its viable in your area, for me, the IT side of health care (not programming) is a pretty good field to be in

[supple basin]

Hate how much that raptor lake exploding rumor got this far lmao

[tall sandal]

Nah they don’t have cooling issues

[frail sequoia]

Or i7 7700k with a gt 730

[azure topaz]

yes they do

[deep musk]

What kind of fucking insane school do you go to?

[sharp ivy]

I have 2 blue intake fans

[tall sandal]

Just engineering department of my uni

[deep musk]

Ohhhhh nicey

It’s not insane, it’s normal wdym?

[swift stream]

and hand out these 🥀

[azure topaz]

are they aio and shiz? or prebuilt oem?

[vapid ibex]

I think my college uses i5 10500 or 10600k or some bs but the cards differ from a gtx 1050 ti to an Rtx 3050

[tall sandal]

Regular cpu

[deep musk]

Doesn’t need these CPUs

[tall sandal]

Dell, has RTX 4060 too

[clear canyon]

I've had my 137k for 4 years and it's never been naughty

i think so? idk, theres nothing here when i need something

[azure topaz]

okay so yes they have cooling issues

[supple basin]

Almost 4*

[deep musk]

Not workstation/server cpu (I suppose)

[tall sandal]

Idk, never seen the temps

[clear canyon]

Lol, but i find that the IT track thats not programming to be quite easy

[tall sandal]

always wondered tbh

under heavy workloads what is it

[deep musk]

Really coolio, like my armour lcs

[azure topaz]

the dell rigs are just awful same with the hp ones for multi core work

[tall sandal]

Lmaoo yes

[azure topaz]

3/4 heatpipe tower coolers

[tall sandal]

It has air cooling, just an office pc

like work related aspects

[azure topaz]

not great for chips that want to draw 200w in multicore

for desktop uses its fine but i could see those exploding LOL

[deep musk]

If it’s a dell, it just doesn’t have airflow

[tall sandal]

I’ll be getting this for my Ryzen 9 9900x

[azure topaz]

i honestly do not recommend

[swift stream]

is it bad i want this headset 💔 ( i alr use armoury crate)

[tall sandal]

I want good thermals after what I’ve dealt with in my Ryzen 9 8940hx laptop. Nightmare

[supple basin]

137k can undervolt a massive fuckton, can get 30-31k r23 and use 160-170w

[deep musk]

(Guess what, he won’t listen, ever)

[tall sandal]

Is the cooler bad?

[azure topaz]

points 1,2, and 3 all matter on your skill level, board, and how good your chip is though

[deep musk]

It’s expensive for what it is and you don’t need to water cool a 9800x

[tall sandal]

It’s a Ryzen 9 9900x

Beefy CPU

[iron glen]

plug in your usb and wait for whatever program to run?

[supple basin]

I mean part of the reason why the general public dump raptor lake is bc of motherboard auto voltage being wild

[deep musk]

You said 9800x earlier so im confused

[azure topaz]

it has terrible mounting hardware and is a nightmare to put on

[terse pewter]

ah

Still doesn’t need water cooling

[tall sandal]

Really?

[tall sandal]

It’s beefy

[azure topaz]

yes i build pcs as my job im gonna keep this a buck

[deep musk]

<@&750150305383186585> scam

[terse pewter]

umm, your tiles of a bit off

[deep musk]

Still doesn’t need a water cooler

[tall sandal]

Which AIO should I get

[vapid ibex]

Why did like 2 ppl on discord send me this before

[tall sandal]

That doesn’t have bad mounting

[clear canyon]

No lol, its more of learning how to hack into systems, defend against hacks, setup secure networks properly, etc

[azure topaz]

where you live shawty

[deep musk]

Air cooler

<@&750150305383186585> scam again

[vapid ibex]

Fahhhh

[terse pewter]

doublekill?

[azure topaz]

i disagree

[vapid ibex]

Are their accounts getting hacked

[azure topaz]

youre allowed to want an aio even if its just for looks

but also the 9900x can draw like 270w

[iron glen]

i love asking this but what even is modern hacking

[terse pewter]

isnt this very much wrong?

[deep musk]

Yes but he’s making it seem like he needs one, a good decent air cooler will be more than fine

[azure topaz]

why do we constantly have to disagree with me

its not wrong it can

[clear canyon]

Depends, they mainly show you what was done in the past as its easier to teach something that already exists as trying to teach a student about something that could potentially happen is really hard lol

[azure topaz]

you enable pbo properly and run a real stress test with good cooling and they will draw quite a large amount of power

[terse pewter]

yeah my car can also go 1000km/h if i drop it down towards earth from space

doesnt mean it will realistically go there

[tall sandal]

I want best thermals

[azure topaz]

alright bro because you live your life at stock settings does not mean people dont know how to turn pbo on

[tall sandal]

I’ve had horrific thermal issues with an 8940HX laptop.

[deep musk]

Do you sincerely think this person even knows how to enable xmp or expo?

[terse pewter]

im running pbo with CO

[supple basin]

Wdym? It can realistically do it

[azure topaz]

do you know what co does

[deep musk]

No shit, it was a laptop

[azure topaz]

it lowers power draw

if you dont do co and just enable pbo with a clock offset

[iron glen]

can't be that hard, the 800 year old fossils here manage it
"so techincally if you added that two to that would be seven yo would get an eight but you won't because you couldn't and even if you could you wouldn't because i couldn't and it wouldn't work"

[tall sandal]

I like AIO for looks too tbh

[azure topaz]

the fucking cpu is going to draw more power than it would if it had a co offset on

[tall sandal]

But this one, is there better out there

[azure topaz]

at least a negative co offset (nobody should do positive, ever)

[tall sandal]

You said it has terrible mounting hardware

[terse pewter]

whatever im not gonna argue with you

[clear canyon]

It varies tbh, my experiences was easy but it could be different for you

[azure topaz]

so if you have a 9900x doing 220w on a full co offset

[tall sandal]

Is there ones that don’t have this issue?

[supple basin]

Man I'm about to replace my aio with an air cooler. 4 years in and the pump is unsavable

[azure topaz]

bro literally look up curve optimiser purpose

it lowers voltage across across the v/f curve in the cpu

what does lowering voltage do

yeah delete the message because you know im right shut up moron

[terse pewter]

not what im talking about, i just cba having a drawn out convo

[iron glen]

eh, i guess

[terse pewter]

moron? good use of words when i just cant be asked to converse about this XD

[azure topaz]

maybe the guy who qa's gaming pc's and writes down wattage numbers on stressed computers knows what chips will draw

[deep musk]

Alrighty then time for me buy an athlon3000g and put the most absurd positive xp offset for funsies

[azure topaz]

perhaps

[tall sandal]

@azure topaz ant recommendations for AIO that has good mounting hardware?

[azure topaz]

you didnt tell me what country you live in

[clear canyon]

I recommend it as its not a bad career path but it all depends on what kind of work you enjoy

[azure topaz]

/i didnt see

[tall sandal]

UK

will buy from Amazon UK

[azure topaz]

color?

[iron glen]

ig ill keep it as a plan B
i like engines and stuff rn

[tall sandal]

Black

[clear canyon]

Na thats fair, engines is fun af to mess with

[tall sandal]

What about this?

[azure topaz]

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BSLK8VYH?tag=pcp0f-21&linkCode=ogi&th=1&language=en_GB

dont have personal experience with it but it has normal mounting hardware style and from a name brand

i have the nautilus myself, good cooler

[tidal geyser]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/381193783296917507/1500262949363781642/caption.gif

[iron glen]

does the average mechanic lives decently?

[azure topaz]

was gonna reco it but didnt want to tell you to buy a cooler thats double the price (almost)

[iron glen]

wsg sim

[terse pewter]

@azure topaz my initial comments were not trying to make it sound like CO was the thing that boosted the wattage. i was hesitant on the 270 mark due to AM5 having the official max power delivery of 230W. however, i seem to be corrected, as it can draw more than 230W

[tidal geyser]

hellu

[terse pewter]

my apolocheese 🧀

[clear canyon]

It can be, depends on the company

[tall sandal]

@azure topaz wtf

[tidal geyser]

laptop prices are so high

[azure topaz]

LOL

[tall sandal]

What the hell

[tidal geyser]

stop buying uranium trough amazon

[tall sandal]

The MSI cooler you send, hell nah man

[azure topaz]

idk it showed up on my amazon uk

[deep musk]

Deliver it to your house

[tall sandal]

something is bad with this

[iron glen]

thats kinda everything, no?

[tall sandal]

Bro this is not enriched uranium

[deep musk]

Probably a stupid shit fuck regulation

[clear canyon]

Entry level positions, yeah

[tall sandal]

It’s only for this

[azure topaz]

i didnt mean to get aggressive my bad

[deep musk]

https://tenor.com/view/wooosh-dumb-gif-18787851

[azure topaz]

i know you werent saying that co increases wattage but that was my point

[terse pewter]

no its okay i couldve worded it better

[azure topaz]

if you had no co offset like a lotta people do itll draw more power

along with setting pbo limits to motherboard

thats the "properly setup" i was referring to

[iron glen]

oh
i figured every physical working job pays depending on how good of a job you do
because why pay lets say 3k for some baboon to come paint my house if i could get a professional to do it for the same ammount

[azure topaz]

if you dont change your power limits yeah it cant draw more than whatever spec is indeed

[tall sandal]

Which one has less issues with mounting?

[azure topaz]

the naut is a normal 4 screw mounting system

[clear canyon]

Well not all company's choose to bring in a 3rd party, some just hire more ppl

[azure topaz]

the arctic uses terrible brackets that are shallow

i was dealing with it at work

on thursday

[deep musk]

Oh shit it’s an lfp, yeah the mounting mechanism is dogshit

[iron glen]

mmm
i feel like in my area, a mechanic is a better option than IT because there are like 2 car shops and 2 small engine shops, but then again i have a month ish to see what my actual options are and what i want to do

[mild garden]

i need help on upgrades
i have very bad parts and a low budget
(r3 3200g, 1x8gb ddr4, 1060 3gb, 350w psu, 1tb storage (laptops were taken apart), gigabyte a330m-h)
im buying used/half new off vinted (yes they have pc components)
im buying another stick of ram and a 750w psu (its a new & sealed psu) (images attached) .
now i need help deciding on a new cpu:
r5 2600 - 29 eur
r7 2700 - 33 eur
r5 2600x - 34 eur
those r the cpus i can comfortably buy
then theres the
r5 3500x - 41 eur
r5 4500 - 51 eur
r5 3600 - 59 eur
help me choose pls

[clear canyon]

2 mechanic shops can also be a double edged sward as you will have more competition for those positions

[rigid fjord]

r5 3600 the only good choice there

[tidal geyser]

blocket

no wait wtf is that

[deep musk]

Yeah, was gonna say that, the other ones won’t be an upgrade tbh, especially if you go down in generation

[deep musk]

Vinted

[mild garden]

i mean i guess

[iron glen]

sounds believable

[mild garden]

vinted

[iron glen]

wsp rauko

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/lb-among-us-venting-impostor-gif-26056188

[rigid fjord]

ther worse one there is the 4500, that's basically going down to a 2600 instead

[mild garden]

anything is an upgrade over the r3 3200g

[clear canyon]

Yeah, i so wish you the best tho 💪

[deep musk]

Yep

[iron glen]

thanks man

[tidal geyser]

r3 1200

[mild garden]

ok ALMOST anything

[deep musk]

No, a 2600 is worse

[rigid fjord]

not much , you

[mild garden]

no?

[rigid fjord]

second worse there is the 3500x, 6c 6t cpu

[mild garden]

im saving anything thats a possible upgrade

[deep musk]

Yes, from a money to performance it is, from an efficiency standpoint it is, it might be barely better in benchmarks but it won’t be better in real usage

[deep musk]

Save up

[mild garden]

im trying
i have no way of income

[deep musk]

https://tenor.com/view/job-job-application-jobless-gif-2757097081210871087

[rigid fjord]

2600 is pretty much going backwards in gen while increasing the core count, a 4500 performs the same as a 2600 which makes it a bad choice, and the lack of hyperthreading on a 3500x is also a bad choice, realistiacally on the 3600 is an upgrade

[mild garden]

cant have one

[gleaming rose]

https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20030822-00/?p=42823

[deep musk]

Why?

[mild garden]

you gotta be 17/18

im barely 16

[iron glen]

Not feeling the best
I have entrance exams coming up and you aren't allowed a calculator there so its all supposed to be doable in your head
I might be mentally disabled or something but i can not divide 600 by like 0.7 in my head

[gloomy sleet]

what country?

[rigid fjord]

not for dog walking, window washing, grass cutting

[mild garden]

my neighbourhood/town limits that

my town lwk buns

[deep musk]

You’re 16, “too young” to work yet you’re staff and mod in discord communities? I think there’s a priority issue

[supple basin]

Wouldn't be mad with a r5 5500 if it's cheap there too, sometimes cheaper than 3600

[mild garden]

nope, cheapest is like 90 i think

[supple basin]

3600 then

[mild garden]

i mean i had the chance and im in so.
and yes slovenia has high age laws

[gloomy sleet]

really?

[deep musk]

If you have time for that you definitely have time to find a way to make money

[rigid fjord]

same performance as a 3600 tbh

[gloomy sleet]

arent they eu

[mild garden]

ive tried everything

[iron glen]

In their defense some places don't hire you if you can't work full time, but you most likely can go flip burgers at McDonald's over the summer

[mild garden]

nearest mcdonalds too far away

and i still have school

[iron glen]

Mow lawns or something then

[mild garden]

ive tried

everyone does it themselves

[deep musk]

I’ve never heard of a place that will only employ 16 years old if they work full time

[gloomy sleet]

you can apparently get a part time (sub 20 hours/week) job in slovenia at 15

[supple basin]

Trading up is always fun but make sure you stay safe

[deep musk]

@mild garden

[gloomy sleet]

assuming EU standard laws

[mild garden]

my parents always told me otherwise

and theres noone hiring

im in such a bad location unfortunately

[iron glen]

I think you missed the point a little
I meant some places won't hire you because you can't work full time yet, like legally not allowed to. Here they don't atleast, idk other countries laws

[supple basin]

Find something to sell, make money from it, buy deals on things, resell higher rinse repeat if you don't have a job

[deep musk]

Ohhh woupsies, my bad didn’t realize I read it completely wrong

[mild garden]

ive tried reselling

[iron glen]

All good

[mild garden]

went into the negatives

[deep musk]

Can be considered suspicious by the government/platforms if a younger folk does that

[supple basin]

Bro the formula is not hard how do u go negative

[mild garden]

noone buys anything

[mild garden]

and that

[vapid ibex]

Send me your 16gb kit I will make sure it works well then give you the additional 16gb (that kit ain't seeing the light of day again if given to me)

[supple basin]

Daang

[deep musk]

ebay existing

[deep musk]

I need that ram rn qwq

[mild garden]

....
do you think i havent tried

[deep musk]

Just saw the second part x3

[supple basin]

Doesn't mean it doesn't work

You tried badly

[iron glen]

Just bike the hour or whatever to McDonald's G

[vapid ibex]

Ngl just hocus pocus and shit gonna be there

[mild garden]

no bike

[vapid ibex]

Yo my discord broken

[deep musk]

[iron glen]

Walk then

[mild garden]

2 hours

or more it think

[gloomy sleet]

walking 2 hours is kinda wack

[deep musk]

Invest in one instead of upgrading your pc

[mild garden]

cheapest ones are over 1k here

[iron glen]

I walk home from school for 2h daily, quit whining

[mild garden]

i have school + at home stuff

i have not enough time

[gloomy sleet]

for a bike?

[mild garden]

yep

[iron glen]

There is definitely some facebook group for used bikes

[gloomy sleet]

theres no way a bike costs 1k euros tf

[iron glen]

A new one might

[mild garden]

no...

[gloomy sleet]

nah theres no way

[mild garden]

it is

[iron glen]

Depends what you're looking for

[iron glen]

A brand new mtb costs like 3k

[gloomy sleet]

bikes are like 300-500 new usually

of course

used is around 50-200 max

[deep musk]

Never said to buy something incredibly good, just something that will get him from point a to point b

[iron glen]

For what bike, a city bike? A bmx? A fixed gear? A mountain bike? An elecric one?

[vapid ibex]

A Bugatti scooter

[gloomy sleet]

that

[mild garden]

that is not real bro

[iron glen]

@mild garden go on facebook marketplace, look for a used bike/used e scooter

[mild garden]

jus nvm i asked for anything atp
ill jus skip out on subnautica 2 ih

[gloomy sleet]

does slovenia not use the euro or something?

[deep musk]

Anything you can find, at this point the important criteria is that it works and isn’t gonna snap while riding it

[mild garden]

it does

[iron glen]

My friend found a used kukirin for 125 eur

[gloomy sleet]

tf

[mild garden]

all like 750+

[iron glen]

Have you checked

[mild garden]

yes

im in a remote location

[vapid ibex]

Only Bugatti I would ever be able to afford

[iron glen]

Look for something further away then

[mild garden]

nearest good deal is like

25+km

35*

[iron glen]

Yea, after a bit of modding it can do like 101km/h with the wheel in the air

[iron glen]

Have someone drive you

[gloomy sleet]

that seems mildly excessive

ngl at this point i think stealing a bike is your only option

[mild garden]

yea

[mild garden]

no

[gleaming rose]

hi vaux

[gloomy sleet]

hi

[mild garden]

well nvm i even asked for anything atp ig
my situation sucks

[iron glen]

They're pretty scary machines if you take the "leash" off

I would be a lot more comfortable doing 100km/h on a dirtbike than an e scooter

Even though if i fall im most likely hospitalized in both scenarios, im less likely to have my handlebars snap from my hands because of a rock or dent in the road on a dirtbike

[pulsar root]

How many tabs approximately do you guys have open right now and how much ram you have

[true stirrup]

Kje?

[supple basin]

Not really unless you're specialized or have already set up your own shop

[mild garden]

nuh uh

[true stirrup]

There is no way you can't find a sub 100€ bike just to use to move around

[latent pasture]

depends

how much pts do they have in chr and barter for 2nd hand no gear ones

[iron glen]

I don't think the bike market is very thin in Slovenia

Matter of fact i think its very rich along with all the other sport markets

[hexed tapir]

You can get a super nice bike for $10

[true stirrup]

You would be surprised how common that is here

[iron glen]

I imagine a GTA lobby but with bicycles

"what do you mean your bike is gone, just grab a new one and lets go"

[vapid ibex]

Very competitive pricing also

Guys

[stark kiln]

I want to upgrade my PCs PSU. It's an scummy elite desk with a proprietary motherboard. However, I'm curious if there's any adaptors, or something like that to make it work. I want to get a 650w PSU, as I want to get a better CPU and a GPU.

[stark kiln]

Is it possible in the first place

[random junco]

been there, its very hacky

[hexed tapir]

Many AliExpress sellers have cable adapters

[vapid ibex]

Why are you ibrabim

[random junco]

because my parents named me that !

[stark kiln]

But it's possible right?

[supple basin]

I can't stand this project anymore lmfao, laptop only has one m.2 slot

[random junco]

yeah, coopatroopa mentioned aliexpress adapters, i didnt know abt that so it might be worth checking that out

[stark kiln]

I just want to get a better CPU and a GPU. Maybe a i7 9700k and a 2070S. The 650w can surely handle it

[vapid ibex]

Why not just ibrahim

[random junco]

no my name is ibrahim

[fierce breach]

650 works on that but 700 is more advisable

[steel umbra]

i ate seal for breakfast

[stark kiln]

Got it. I'm not trying to do anything hard core I just want a better CPU and a GPU. The most demanding game I have is BF 2042 and FC 26, rdr2 maybe

[random junco]

not ibrabim

[stark kiln]

Although I will need to do some bios changes to the motherboard in regards to coffeemod iirc

[vapid ibex]

You will not see light of day again

[vapid ibex]

Oh koyis koyis good

[stark kiln]

Cause i have i5 7500 rn and hp is picky with their motherboard CPUs so I'll have to bios that bad boy

[stark kiln]

(Bios mod included if you buy 3+ coffees)

[hexed tapir]

Add a 8tb nvme then

[stark kiln]

That's ATLEAST 3 dollars

[random junco]

on a good day

[stark kiln]

A particularly VERY good day

[hexed tapir]

Only $1300 usd

[random junco]

holy shit no way 🤣

[supple basin]

I can't this, laptop's existence is misery

[stark kiln]

That's at least 3 jelly doughnuts

[random junco]

egpu enclosure

[stark kiln]

Oh my god 😭

[hexed tapir]

And that's for the cheapest

[supple basin]

I put the 2230 m.2 nvme into the little circle enclosure and booting windows through usb-c

But normally you can't do that so it's running windows to go

I hate how this is all turning out

[steel umbra]

i meant i accidentally ate the seal from a yogourt 😓

[vapid ibex]

😭

[random junco]

never thought i'd see a post-it note cellotaped to a laptop battery

[supple basin]

It was for inventory 😭

It worked instantly on my PC but this dell laptop is fighting me every step of the way

[supple basin]

Lmmaaapoo

[hexed tapir]

Who used sharpie on the cheese slice

[vapid ibex]

Lmaooo

[random junco]

whos cooking the cheese on the battery module

[vapid ibex]

And tape aswell

Bro wanted it secured 😭

[supple basin]

I didn't do it 😂

[random junco]

well dont be surprised if you smell fried cheese upon next boot

just a heads up

[vapid ibex]

Put another battery on top and you have an explosive sandwich

Lactose intolerant people hate this one trick

[random junco]

lmaoo

[supple basin]

Y'all frying me

[vapid ibex]

Just like the cheese

[random junco]

whats the error say

[supple basin]

Code 43

Driver didn't work

[tulip sparrow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HwLLc_iWrA

[supple basin]

Not sure what do but clean install

[vapid ibex]

Allat for it to still be a binned 16 pro chip 😭

[hexed tapir]

Bro beat Jake's score by 1 point

[grizzled frost]

you say that like people aren’t well aware

[vapid ibex]

I mean I didn't intend for it to come as a fact more of a joke

At that point get a Mac air

Or solder more ram

[grizzled frost]

the whole point is that they didnt have to buy a macbook air

for 2x the price

[vapid ibex]

Yes but at that point might aswell do it. I mean I'm judging it from an average users tech literacy

[grizzled frost]

No average user is opening up a macbook neo and watercooling it

[vapid ibex]

Yes which is why the air is better

[grizzled frost]

they aren’t trying to accomplish something the average user is going to do, it’s something for fun

[grizzled frost]

Obviously the macbook that is 2x the cost is more performant

[vapid ibex]

Ya and that's why I said the first message for fun

[terse pewter]

cant people have fun nowadays and watercool something like that?

[grizzled frost]

but that’s not what the people buying the mac neo are looking for

[vapid ibex]

I'm not arguing about it lol I'm just finding it funny

It's like water cooling a phone and using it with the back glass missing

[grizzled frost]

none of these additions are meant to be daily driven

It’s a fun “how far can we push it” experiment

[vapid ibex]

Ya I am aware lol

[azure prism]

Does anyone know the max internet speed for a ryzen 7 3700x can handle? I want to get 7 gbps but i dont know if my cpu can support it.

[formal sonnet]

Does your motherboard's ethernet port support 10gbit?

[frigid blade]

You’ll need an expansion card that can do 10Gig I think

[azure prism]

Im thinking of buying a netwrok interface card

[neon ocean]

.. Huh. Nothing like your computer freezing, beeping 2 codes at the same, a single beep, then after a reboot you don't see your dGPU despite having visuals

[frigid blade]

Nvm I missed your message mb Kira

[azure prism]

Can it even decode that fast?

[frigid blade]

The CPU is generally not the bottleneck

[azure prism]

Ok just wanted to make sure. I thought it would be

[frigid blade]

I think RAM bandwidth is a bigger issue than the CPU (apart from
The NIC)

[latent pasture]

or the ssd writing

[frigid blade]

Yah, 7Gbps is almost 1GB/s

You’ll need an SSD that can sustain those speeds

[formal sonnet]

Your CPU won't be the problem. RAM, storage, and network card will be. That said, 7gbps for a single device is just... silly. Unless you have a specific use-case where you're always maxxing it out, 1gbps or 2.5gbps are just fine for consumer usage.

[frigid blade]

I guess it depends if windows uses multiple cores for network stuff

Cuz 1 core probably can’t do that

I think it does use multiple though

[neon ocean]

Say, did anyone else with an AMD GPU recently have issues (7900XT here) that required a reinstallation after DDU?

[deep musk]

@stark flicker this is sooooo funy https://youtu.be/bSB48hL3-34?si=Ye_7AsPCoQbGCAXM

[empty quartz]

They literally did

[deep musk]

Holly shit it’s cringe (she’s arguing against a sexologist (while she’s not one) and she has a cm1/cm2 level of réthorique)

[empty quartz]

@fierce breach intel (left) vs m1 (right)

Only difference is the planet icon on the fn key

[forest lotus]

Welp gonna hurt but

Time to save up and buy a 5090

Because I don't wanna be running a flight sim at 30fps in vr

[empty quartz]

Turn down the graphics

[forest lotus]

It's DCS

[empty quartz]

And?

[forest lotus]

I'd rather keep them semi up there for immersion

[haughty compass]

damn

[forest lotus]

I'll pay the price in hardware just gonna take a bit lol

[lone ginkgo]

How does my new all AMD build look?

[empty quartz]

5/10, too much rgb

And cable management needs work

[lone ginkgo]

I like my cable management

[empty quartz]

Rate my shitass build

[lone ginkgo]

So cool 😎

[lone ginkgo]

10/10

[fierce breach]

im crazy

[bright surge]

would steam OS work well on a framework 16?

[grizzled frost]

Your Mileage May Vary

It's yet to get an official release for anything other than the Steam Deck

[solemn tendon]

Question: if you can include 4 ssd slots on a mother board... why would manufacturers only actually utilize two...

I would like more slots please.

(Definitely didnt get warshipped)

[empty quartz]

Yes, every car has a different amount of miles driven

[formal sonnet]

$$$$$
$$$$$$$$$$
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Different boards cost different munnies depending on their features.

[solemn tendon]

Its a laptop lol

Its a generic board I guess

[latent gull]

Realistically, how many people would run 4 SSDs?

[solemn tendon]

Me

[latent gull]

And realistically how many people need to run 4 m.2 SSDs?

[solemn tendon]

I mean

Theres not really space for a 2.5" drive anymore

In the laptop

I could get a nas but its still quite pricey lol

[fickle ivy]

YouTube putting ads when you pause a video on mobile is so damn annoying, because every time I try to pause a video to read text and I have to pause it multiple times the damn ad shows up and shoves the skip to the next video button into the exact same spot as the regular pause button

Google are you not rich enough you damn multi trillion dollar greedy ass company???

[solemn tendon]

Number must go up

[fickle ivy]

God I hate capitalism

[formal sonnet]

Bingo. Most boards are mass produced for a few different models in a given series. If the series has cheaper to more expensive models, the manufacturer can save $5 per unpopulated NVMe slot on the cheaper models. Multiply that by thousands sold and that's a LOT of money.

[solemn tendon]

Thats true enough I guess

Would be nice if it was just a module instead of needing to be soldered in

[plain cypress]

Laptop?

There's tons of pricing ladder stuff in every industry

[solemn tendon]

I thought about going for the titan which has 4 slots but weaker gpu

Decided nah

[empty quartz]

Pcie lanes, and its for different spec laptops.

[solemn tendon]

[empty quartz]

Its like a macbook in a way

[solemn tendon]

this is a pretty juicy laptop but I get it

[empty quartz]

Shames you for not getting the higher tier storage

[solemn tendon]

they don't offer the vector with higher tier storage lol

[empty quartz]

Example

[solemn tendon]

well not here at any rate

[empty quartz]

My macbook shames me for not getting 4tb or more by leaving the pads just sitting there doing nothing

[solemn tendon]

I mean at least I can upgrade my storage

[nimble crescent]

I have an extra Samsung 990 Pro laying around and wanted to put it in my PlayStation 5. Do I need to format it before or can it do it for you?

[solemn tendon]

it can do it

[hexed tapir]

You hate the $1.50 hotdog and drink combo at Costco?!

[low mortar]

anyone know a good monitor for gaming with decent colors around the 400-450 range

[bold olive]

conglomerate iphone 6 batteries

[fierce breach]

Thats not shaming and arguably is a good thing since it makes upgrading easier

[hexed tapir]

[thorny saddle]

This monitor will kill your AMD CPU

[bold olive]

can an oled user calm me down about burn in

one of the two reasons why im still on ips

[thorny saddle]

Don't leave excel open for like 45 days

otherwise, no issues here

[formal sonnet]

Besides, if you're leaving Excel open for more than 4 hours, you need a real database.
