tech-chat-2

[turbid locust]

This?

[edgy laurel]

i think so

[turbid locust]

Lol there's people in chat saying theyve been there for 2 hours and no code lol

[edgy laurel]

just play it on your phone or another pc while you do something else

on mute if you have to lol

[turbid locust]

Yeah I am

[vestal granite]

mute the tab not the stream they might get mad if u mute the stream

[edgy laurel]

i wondered about that

[turbid locust]

leaving it on my pc and gonna fuck off and do something else for a bit

[low sorrel]

yeah

[vestal granite]

and dont minimize the tab cause i think sites can tell that

idk if twitch cares but they might

[low sorrel]

minimiize is fine

[turbid locust]

will report back in 30 mins

[edgy laurel]

it know, twitch at least used to lower the quality if you minimized it so it knows when you do

ok i can't link twitch links

but /drops/inventory

it'll show up in there when you get it

[low sorrel]

yeah but it sends a link to iit in yourr inox when you get it

[edgy laurel]

damn i have so many prime gaming games to claim

and it keeps scrolling

not that I want any of these

[heavy mantle]

What are yall thoughts on the 1999 Mercedes e320?

[low sorrel]

wagon?

[heavy mantle]

Wha

?

[low sorrel]

is the wagon or nah

[edgy laurel]

if its still running, it'll probably run forever

wait 99, so its a V6, not the inline 6

[edgy laurel]

how many hours

should be under TV information

probably should have asked this before but frankly, for $100 it really doesn't matter if it works

floppa come back I must know

[low sorrel]

floppaaaaaaaaaa

[devout ridge]

any guesses why this truenas VM ain't working?

the disks show up

[edgy laurel]

wrong boot device selected? about the only thing we can get from that

[turbid locust]

no code

apparently it's not guaranteed, it's just a chance every 30 mins of watchtime

[devout ridge]

it doesn't allow me to pick a boot device though

the moment i turn on the VM it goes to that immediately

[edgy laurel]

in my experience which is only with VMWare workstation and virtualbox, you need to select the boot device in the settings for that VM

but I also use that to create a virtual disk so it just kinda auto selects it

[turbid locust]

I linked my EA account to my Twitch, hopefully helps

[low sorrel]

nah it took like 30 minuutes after i stopped watching for the code to be sent tto me

[turbid locust]

wtf

[devout ridge]

when i try UEFI it just gets here and does nothing

[turbid locust]

dude twich will drop your quality to 160p if it detects you're afk lmao

[hoary hatch]

Oops

I ordered P14 Pro PST 5pk

[brisk jolt]

bruh how do u even detect afk on twitch

[turbid locust]

Idk bruh but my shit was 160p until I shook my mouse

then straight back to 1080p

[brisk jolt]

so it went from the dumpster to the trash

mfw if im watching a WEC 24hr

[low sorrel]

did ya get it

[turbid locust]

noper

[edgy laurel]

dude this is fun

[turbid locust]

This key system is so wack

just let people play the fkin beta this is so annoying

[brisk jolt]

[turbid locust]

all this is doing is making me not want to play lmfao

[brisk jolt]

then dont play

[edgy laurel]

don't be a little baby because you didn't look into how to get a EA code before today

[brisk jolt]

its time to go online and write a yapfest about how shit that system is

[edgy laurel]

i wanted to play, so i followed how

[turbid locust]

I didnt even know about the early access shit till after the trailer

shits just boring as fuck

fuck me for being employed ig

not saying you arent lmao but like fuck

[shell void]

unreasonably large tv

[turbid locust]

it being literal RNG is whats annoying me

[pallid marsh]

you bought a 5070ti but have no job?

[turbid locust]

why do I have to watch some insufferable fuckin streamer for a chance

[turbid locust]

reading comprehension is a fundamental skill in life

[pallid marsh]

do what i did and pay ea $17 for pro game pass

[pallid marsh]

https://tenor.com/view/ralphwiggum-smart-simpsons-gif-5270199

[turbid locust]

would rather be shot by a 50 cal

[topaz veldt]

which are you watching

[turbid locust]

tim

[topaz veldt]

tat man?

[turbid locust]

mhm

[pallid marsh]

the 115" tvs are so fucking big they dont fit on the carts at my work so we need to use a forklift to move them around the place

[topaz veldt]

watched him for like 2 hours in the last day or so, no mention of a code

[edgy laurel]

tim is a guilty pleasure, i think he's funny as hell

watched him on and off since he mained overwatch

[topaz veldt]

did you see his warzone stream when people asked about him watching the BF6 trailer?

[shell void]

are you certified?

[turbid locust]

He's fine I just dont like watching livestreams

[edgy laurel]

the one where he uploaded a YT video the same day lol, yes

[pallid marsh]

yes, but not for my current employer

[topaz veldt]

and people kept asking and he like... he wanted to flip out

There were people joining the stream "BF6reveal" as their username

[edgy laurel]

this is so pretty and it runs amazingly well

[topaz veldt]

BF4?

honestly looks like BF4

[edgy laurel]

in person it looks so good

little oversharpened but i'm sure thats fixable, couldn't be bothered now

[topaz veldt]

its bf4 right

[edgy laurel]

no..

[topaz veldt]

lol

honestly looks just like BF4

I hope the motion blur is tuneable still

[brisk jolt]

back to being fucked by binary i go

[turbid locust]

what

[edgy laurel]

it is, i just realized i had it defaulted, i just turned it off

[brisk jolt]

great- the socket isnt working

[topaz veldt]

oh shit, I can play

[brisk jolt]

I cant fuckin charge my laptop now kek

[topaz veldt]

or at least it says I can

[turbid locust]

you can launch the game

[topaz veldt]

and then it will tell me to F off?

[turbid locust]

it just wont let you queue

[topaz veldt]

ffs

i am opening it just to fuck with their hardware surveys

ripped thru shaders

zero CPU load, too - I wish I knew why some games load CPU for that vs. not

maybe decompression?

[edgy laurel]

classic BF while running it

[turbid locust]

Yeah mine took like 10 seconds

[topaz veldt]

I am going to spend all night in the firing range

[turbid locust]

Im gonna spend all night on twich probably to find out I did something wrong or some shit

[topaz veldt]

lol

the game just crashed lol

[edgy laurel]

i love being able to drag people out of combat

[turbid locust]

im happy for you guilty

[topaz veldt]

drag them into combat

lol go into firing range

they have the theme music in the PA system

[turbid locust]

Some people in Tim’s chat was saying they got a key through Intels newsletter. I signed up for it and didn’t even get an email lmao.

[topaz veldt]

Why does my video look unsaturated @edgy laurel

Trying again

ha 264 works

but it shoots itself!

locks back, nice

[turbid locust]

im about to make multiple twitch accounts

[topaz veldt]

lolol

bro stop

[turbid locust]

i wanna play man 🙁

im getting more sleepy by the hour

[brisk jolt]

isnt it like 9pm for yall

[turbid locust]

mhm

[brisk jolt]

im stuck in class and the guy who has played clash royale 100% of the way didnt come

I dont even remember his name nor face

[edgy laurel]

yessir, ptfo

[topaz veldt]

maybe a little exaggerated

[wise bear]

00ga in a 12ga package!!

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel turn off vignette and chromatic aberation

[edgy laurel]

yeah i have all that off

[topaz veldt]

looks way better

[edgy laurel]

i hate vingettes

[topaz veldt]

same

[edgy laurel]

i don't know who things that looks good

[wise bear]

eat your vignettes, they're good for you

[topaz veldt]

like... who why

[edgy laurel]

does the game look overly sharp to you

there isn't a DLSS sharpening slider that I can find

[turbid locust]

alright fellas which account gets the code first

[topaz veldt]

you have to link twich to ea

and then just watch for 30 mins

[turbid locust]

you see thats the thing

appparently thats NOT how it works

[edgy laurel]

its not guaranteed, as Mac found out

[brisk jolt]

dudes on the grind for ts

[turbid locust]

my actual account is linked but yeah

its not guaranteed

but ive also been told your account doesnt need to be linked

[edgy laurel]

So, a BIG thing in the BF community right now is Closed vs. Open weapons @topaz veldt

[topaz veldt]

classes?

[turbid locust]

closed all the way imo

[edgy laurel]

they're testing out playlists for both

[topaz veldt]

what does it mean

[edgy laurel]

so, traditional BF, weapon types are locked to classes

[topaz veldt]

right

[edgy laurel]

which I prefer

[topaz veldt]

yeah same

I don't want a sniper dropping ammo for himself

[edgy laurel]

and we're hoping they don't split the player base into different playlists like this in the final game

[topaz veldt]

yeah that'd be bad

[edgy laurel]

2042 it was all open

[topaz veldt]

yeah

take it back to the OG

[edgy laurel]

closed weapons means more of a focus on your job as the class you picked

[turbid locust]

the class/roles are part of what makes battlefield, battlefield imo

[edgy laurel]

exactly

but people wanna mix and match and make OP classes

well, some people

[topaz veldt]

thats annoying

[turbid locust]

Yeah dude Jev was running around with a sniper on engineer because of the shotgun

anytime he hitmarked with the sniper he just swapped to shotgun to finish

[edgy laurel]

the shotgun btw, its wild. a choke and its a sniper on its own

[pallid marsh]

it killed a airmen

[topaz veldt]

just played with it in firing range - even without a choke the spread is tight

[edgy laurel]

yeah there have been some crazy clips

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel you know you put a 4x on the shotgun w/ slug in BF4 and "sniper shotgunned" we all did it

[edgy laurel]

LMAO yes!

[low sorrel]

closed is the better playlistt change my mind

[low sorrel]

i hate u

[turbid locust]

I havent seen a real person say they wanted open lol

[edgy laurel]

i've only been playing the closed conquest, lets ive breakthrough a try. wanna see a new map

[topaz veldt]

so where does the "code" come thru if you get one thru Twitch

[edgy laurel]

i've also only played engineer. repairing teammate vehicles is the cheat code for points

[low sorrel]

breakthrough is so defender sided it's not fun

[edgy laurel]

its funny. people complained about the maps being too big in 2042. now they're complaining about them being too small in 6

[low sorrel]

2042 map sizes were fine

[edgy laurel]

some of them were pretty massive

lotta running

[turbid locust]

I GOT A CODE RAHHHHHH

[edgy laurel]

finally.. you'll stop moaning..

[turbid locust]

guilty my biggest opp rn

[edgy laurel]

[turbid locust]

Cant help but think the movement feels super clunky

[hoary hatch]

How

[turbid locust]

twitch

[hoary hatch]

Fuck you fuck you fuck you

In going to log onto twitch

[pure garnet]

is it rng drop or watch %

[hoary hatch]

This makes me feel like such a degenerate

[turbid locust]

rng

[pallid marsh]

rng every 30 mins

[pure garnet]

ill wait 2 days then

[turbid locust]

also I just hit this guy for 101 and he didnt die

[hoary hatch]

Oh wait

It's rng? Pass

[turbid locust]

took me almost 2 hrs

[pallid marsh]

could do my method of paying ea 17$ for the game pass pro

[turbid locust]

this game is not running very nice

like im getting 120ish fps but it feels terrible

[low sorrel]

fun fact

[hoary hatch]

How does twitch drop work

[low sorrel]

if you are going to pre order bf6

[pallid marsh]

im using the dumb EA app so icant see ingame fps

[hoary hatch]

Does it post a code in the chat and first person to redeem is the lucky winner

[low sorrel]

buy EA play first for one dollar

[hoary hatch]

Or can I walk away from my computer

[turbid locust]

No. It'll pop up in your twitch inbox

[low sorrel]

and get 10% discount

[pallid marsh]

sends it your special twitch in box

[hoary hatch]

What's a twitch inbox

[turbid locust]

supposedly a chance to get it every 30 mins

[low sorrel]

no goes to your inbox

[edgy laurel]

butter smooth here. youhave Gsync set to fullscreen and windowed? its not default

[edgy laurel]

and a lot of people are complaining about gsync not working if you don't

[turbid locust]

windowed and vsync off

[edgy laurel]

i have vsync forced on in driver, off in game. optimal setup

for gsync

[turbid locust]

I never use vsync or whatever

[hoary hatch]

does this mean I can AFK

[low sorrel]

yes

just need the tab to be in your browser

you can mute it

[pallid marsh]

i thought you need it as 1% volume at least

[edgy laurel]

https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1lokih2/putting_misconceptions_about_optimal_fps_caps/ light reading for later

[hoary hatch]

someone is whispering me a code

[hoary hatch]

or maybe they're screwing with me

[low sorrel]

probably the latter

[edgy laurel]

holy shit, you weren't kidding

attackers never even got close to capping the first point

[low sorrel]

no harm in just shoving it in https://www.ea.com/en/games/battlefield/battlefield-6/redeem

[hoary hatch]

literally 30 seconds after joining a stream

[low sorrel]

who you watching

[edgy laurel]

just focused on killing their tank over and over

[hoary hatch]

this was fast

[low sorrel]

i played 5 games of breakthrough and i think once the attackers got to the second point

[edgy laurel]

yeah thats gotta be looked at

[pallid marsh]

defending is easy as shit

[edgy laurel]

very easy

too easy

[turbid locust]

I'm getting the same performance on High + Balanced as I was with Ultra + Balanced

[low sorrel]

honestly all i did was just shoot the big ass lens flarres from their snipers and i was 30-2

[hoary hatch]

I believe this guy had a facebook meme page called "Brock Obama" circa 2013

and I guess i've been following him on twitch for about 10 years

i wish twitch would show when my last login was

my guess is 2021

[pallid marsh]

you just need to hold a few stairwells to win

[hoary hatch]

there is a new arc driver

[turbid locust]

dude my framerate is all over the fuckin place the pacing is awful

[edgy laurel]

the tank never stands a chance

[turbid locust]

one second it feels fine the next feels like slow motion

also sniping seems fuckin terrible I have people shooting at my glint through bushes and smoke for being scoped for 2 seconds

[edgy laurel]

https://tenor.com/view/blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-gif-22583735

[low sorrel]

fyi the rpg is fully accurate while jumping

[edgy laurel]

the glint is crazy though, they're fixing that

[low sorrel]

so you can jump shoot vics from behind coverr

[turbid locust]

I walked 10 feet from spawn and literally 6 enemies were there

like literally our spawn. Our HQ

[low sorrel]

welcome to battlefield 6

[edgy laurel]

i have no idea how to use that "mine" you get with engineer

canister looking thingy

[pallid marsh]

i just set it behind a rock or in a pit

[edgy laurel]

but like, what triggers it

[pallid marsh]

on roads

[low sorrel]

motion i assume

it's called motion

[turbid locust]

two stabs with knife does 70 damage. Ok.

[pallid marsh]

vic passes it goes off and top attacks it

[low sorrel]

this is why defib is the meta

[turbid locust]

Also High + Performance, still only 130fps average

[pallid marsh]

it says noise of vics if i recall right

[edgy laurel]

i can't tell if it went off or they destroyed it in my video above

[brisk jolt]

some fuck in my class deleted the word file and sabo'd the rest of us -_-

[edgy laurel]

actually i think it went off.

[turbid locust]

dude tanks are so. fucking. boring.

[edgy laurel]

mac lmao, go play cod

[turbid locust]

fuck cod

[brisk jolt]

then

[turbid locust]

conquest is just boring as shit when people sit in tanks all fuckin game

[edgy laurel]

get with your squad, destroy it

[low sorrel]

tanks are easy to kill ngl

[turbid locust]

yeah let me just run at it while it cross maps me with the gun

[low sorrel]

ifvs are harder to kill then tanks change my mind

[edgy laurel]

not had a single problem with tanks so far

alright back to closed weapon conquest

[turbid locust]

just solo killed a tank all good

nothing 3 rpgs in a row cant handle

[low sorrel]

remember

[edgy laurel]

don't be by yourself, its a team game

[low sorrel]

2 shots to the side and rear

[turbid locust]

Have you experienced post 2010 randoms

footsteps are really loud so far imo

Also im now at medium preset and DLSS performance, still have dips into the 110's, average 140. Wonder if this is one of those games that just heavily favors vcache

[hoary hatch]

Oh yeah Amazon owns twitch

[hoary hatch]

But why

[turbid locust]

hehehehehehe

[low sorrel]

twitch uses aws

[pallid marsh]

and kick uses aws as well

[hoary hatch]

So Amazon incurred a bunch of costs for what gain

[brisk jolt]

Im not battlefield expert so how the fuck did you get 3 simultaneous RPGs

[low sorrel]

you have 5 shots

[brisk jolt]

.

[turbid locust]

destroyed tank

[shell void]

from what i’ve seen it does not

14900K, 285K, and 9800X3D all perform pretty similarly

[turbid locust]

Well I feel like I shouldnt be struggling for 144fps at Medium + DLSS Performance

[shell void]

the graphical options might not impact it much

[brisk jolt]

ive never played battlefield is this 6th one good/worth playin as a total noob

[low sorrel]

i mean it's a free playtest

[turbid locust]

despite my bitching it seems pretty good so far

[shell void]

i know 5090 only gets 140-180 with dlss quality so your performance doesn’t sound unusual

[hoary hatch]

I've heard XeSS is broken in BF6

Time to confirm

[pure garnet]

i know you’re at 4k but wtf

[mortal pumice]

Chat it's been four hours, could I please get sum help in tech support💔😭

[tribal matrix]

Any idea what's causing this error? Only happening while shutting down

[turbid locust]

DLSS Performace at 4K is basically 1080p rendering

[pallid marsh]

i cant even see what fps i have the EA thing wont work and amd app wont read it

[pure garnet]

i’m gonna install battlefield then immediately uninstall from how poorly it runs huh

[edgy laurel]

it runs beautifully

[shell void]

chuggin along at max with dlss quality?

[edgy laurel]

ya, not even 100% GPU, ezpz

[pure garnet]

barely 144 at 1080p medium on a 14900k/5070ti doesn’t sound like beautifully running

that’s not even my displays refresh rate

[indigo walrus]

No clue. I would contact the developer of the application that uses "tbs_browser.exe" and ask them. Seems like this "tbs_browser.exe" ships with a few different games, so I would find out what game is using it, then contact the devs.
https://steamcommunity.com/app/2507950/discussions/0/592885309361911343/

[shell void]

i think the perfomance difference between medium and max is not large

[turbid locust]

Performance vs Quality should be tho

[tribal matrix]

People saying it's malware . I play Delta force regularly .Why would game like delta force of spread malware

[indigo walrus]

A great question... for the developers of the game that includes this executable. It might be malicious; it might just be a "runaway" process that gobbles up CPU cycles / memory and doesn't exit correctly.

[low sorrel]

tbs browser is tecents way of getting a browser to work in a game

tencents

[indigo walrus]

Oh jeeze. Tencent. 🤢 🤮 Wait, they've invested in Discord... "um, I mean, pls no ban."

[turbid locust]

how are these kids sprint jumping and shooting me

also why does my guy run so slow lmao

[pallid marsh]

with their fingers

[low sorrel]

by shooting while sprinting then jumping

[brisk jolt]

by using WASD, space on the keyboard n left click on the mouse

[edgy laurel]

🤷‍♂️

[turbid locust]

just yeeted a RPG at a sniper glint and got the kill 👍

[indigo walrus]

Wait, so what you're saying is... Discord is a Military Grade™ Messaging Platform?

[edgy laurel]

TM

[low sorrel]

well there was that pentagon leak

[edgy laurel]

first knife takedown. sneaky guy almost ran over him.. i did run over him

that prompt was the only reason I knew he was there

[pallid marsh]

https://militarnyi.com/en/news/discord-is-used-in-the-command-posts-of-the-armed-forces-of-ukraine/ yes

[turbid locust]

sniper openly standing in the street and im shot within a second of spawning

[edgy laurel]

we're playing different games lmao

[low sorrel]

different maps

[tribal matrix]

All the Chinese memes I've posted online .,.. damn it

[turbid locust]

like dude i spawned looking at his glint

[low sorrel]

theres voice chat in battlefield?

[edgy laurel]

i truly don't know how thats possible

[edgy laurel]

you heard that too? and yeah, but i haven't looked into setting it up

[turbid locust]

unironically being spawned killed rn

[low sorrel]

are you on the mountain ma

[turbid locust]

im genuinely curious how I seem to lose gunfights that start with both of us sprinting into each other

im on engineer with an smg and I still dont get the first shot off?

[low sorrel]

looks like it's caps by defualt

[turbid locust]

dunno. skill issue ig

[low sorrel]

the smg is ass

and aim for the head

[turbid locust]

only auto that seems to kill in not an entire mag for me

[low sorrel]

use the m4

[turbid locust]

take an entire mag to kill i mean

[low sorrel]

it slaps

[turbid locust]

ass

[turbid locust]

hard to aim for the head with the rng horizontal recoil

but like yeah

[low sorrel]

goated

the NVO is also fire

[turbid locust]

anyways. off for the night. Will revisit tmr when im not tired and cranky lol

but yeah game seems like it can be solid

spawns are interesting as hell but

and the horizontal recoil makes me feel like I need to apex recoil smooth lol

but yeah like 7/10 rn fs

probably more fun w friends

[edgy laurel]

smg and runnign with your team i'm going crazy

[low sorrel]

Is guilty... Actually good at battlefield?

[desert wind]

#tech-chat-1 anyone here able to help w this?

[edgy laurel]

bro us old heads grew up on BF

[turbid locust]

?

[desert wind]

My bad, just didn’t wanna type allat again lol

[turbid locust]

search secure boot with the search function

also 5600MT/s on AM5

[desert wind]

Weird as hell, it says it is enabled but it wasn’t before I advanced restart

[brisk jolt]

infern0 run he's gonna send u to the gulag

[desert wind]

Gimme a min lemme double check som

[low sorrel]

I'm like 80% sure it's under the section called boot

[desert wind]

I’m scared to find out what ts means

[turbid locust]

are you on W11

[desert wind]

Only boot thing was boot priority and I have it set to my SSD 970 Evo

[desert wind]

Yea 11

[turbid locust]

should be enabled then

[desert wind]

I’ll give it another go, didn’t change shi but I’ll at least bring it up again if it doesn’t work

If it does then my bad lol

[desert wind]

Also this geek squad language can you translate to English por favor

[turbid locust]

slow ass ram on good pc

[desert wind]

Yeah ram one of the things I haven’t upgraded since building pc from scratch

[edgy laurel]

end of the match

[desert wind]

Yeah same “security violation” popup, imma go to this and bring up what I see again real quick

[turbid locust]

btw at the streamer event they did, they said the 9800X3D systems were out performing the 14900K systems by like 30% lol

[desert wind]

Secure boot state being off, but also being enabled on bios like showed earlier

Or I guess I never showed it, but it said it was already enabled

[low sorrel]

why not best in the match smh

is it just me or the stinger is ass in BF6

[edgy laurel]

i dunno what that means

[desert wind]

25 is top frag on battlefield?

[turbid locust]

need guilty to show me the ways of not being spawn killed in battlefield

[desert wind]

No offense meant or anything, I’m just unfortunately cod brained

[vestal granite]

score is top frag

[brisk jolt]

maybe use WASD

[vestal granite]

kills mean nothing the score is what matters in battlefield

[low sorrel]

why'd you let the guy on the other team get mmore score then you

[edgy laurel]

score is what matters, team game, PTFO

[desert wind]

Triple the kills on an average shipment so it’s a mentality thing I gotta fix

[brisk jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/exia-gundam00-trans-am-gif-14703989930461083268

like smth along the lines of moving like this

[turbid locust]

fuck it fuck work im playing more battlefield

[edgy laurel]

step 1, don't spawn on points with enemies, spawn on your teammates lol

[desert wind]

Anyone know why msinfo32 would show my secure boot state being off but my advanced startup BIOS says it’s on?

[turbid locust]

(I will regret this later)

[desert wind]

Are they two different things?

[turbid locust]

Dude i spawn on teammates and they're actively being shot lol

[vestal granite]

step 2. only play sniper and find the one enemy sniper and that is now your rival.

make it your mission to kill only that sniper

[low sorrel]

pick a teammate thats not getting shot

[edgy laurel]

if they're in combat it shouldn't let you spawn on them

[turbid locust]

theoretically

[vestal granite]

just kill enemies

then they wont spawnkill you cause they wont be like alive to shoot you

[turbid locust]

sidenote this is the first game thats made me want a faster gpu

PTFO is a gaming term that means "Play the F***ing Objective". It's a common phrase used in multiplayer games, particularly in the Battlefield series, to encourage players to focus on completing the game's objectives rather than just getting kills. It's often used in a frustrated or exasperated tone when teammates are not contributing to the objective.

Learn it, live it, love it.

[brisk jolt]

time to ditch the 5070ti and pull out the big boy

[turbid locust]

Guilty please ignore that message I thought it would let me type one in game lol

[edgy laurel]

I don't even know what you mean so its all good lol

[turbid locust]

put me in coach

I'm gonna follow you around and res you like I did with 5nail LOL

[low sorrel]

put me in as well

is snail also playing

[turbid locust]

nah pleb doesnt have a code

[edgy laurel]

i think he said he'd be away this weekend too

[low sorrel]

why did i waste mine on jorj

[edgy laurel]

but there is always next weekend

[edgy laurel]

thats a very good question

jorj will play for 5 seconds, shit on it because he doesn't play MP games and never touch it again

or not, because he can't figure out how to turn on Secure Boot

[low sorrel]

dude i can't believe jorj doesn't know how to turn on secure boot

[edgy laurel]

you can't..?

[low sorrel]

he's been here how long

[edgy laurel]

he still doesn't know how to figure out who pinged him

jorj is an anomaly

[turbid locust]

guilty if were gonna queue up lemme grab a beer lol

[edgy laurel]

oh, i jumped off

getting ready for bed

OH, now i know what you mean. sorry yeah im' done for the night

[turbid locust]

lol all good

@low sorrel pull up

[edgy laurel]

hate this guy but https://youtu.be/Wyubzqb-VuY?si=GJ1tgCZfoI5nW04C

[hoary hatch]

lol, he sells tuning courses?

[brisk jolt]

dude u can clearly get them for free here in tc2 fr

[merry stirrup]

[hoary hatch]

i am in servere debt to floppa

https://tenor.com/view/nervous-breakdown-no-way-omg-wow-gif-15655816

[low sorrel]

defib only was not the strat on mountian map

[topaz veldt]

Yes he does

[topaz veldt]

He sells built OCd rigs, so he is decent at dialing them in to like 90% max OC, but he's a static OCer, so just like bins CPUs and mobos and sets all core speed to 57 multiplier etc

I've been tempted to see what he does in a personal tuning

[runic heath]

Could my bios not being up to date stop me from booting into secure boot?

[devout ridge]

don’t cross post

[runic heath]

Oh ok sorry I thought there was a difference like some people in other tech chats my bad

[brisk jolt]

o icic

[heavy mantle]

wouldnt that be better ig?

[topaz veldt]

Who was I just complaining about this to lol

[brisk jolt]

he basically sets a baseline oc on his rigs on sale and sets that

its a standard and not pushing the bin to 100%

[merry stirrup]

its relatively binned

[topaz veldt]

Inline 6 preferred

[heavy mantle]

ahh

[merry stirrup]

the "baseline" is still kinda on the higher scale

[heavy mantle]

tho am not car savvy but from a quick google serch it shows that the 96 and 97 models both used the inlne 6 ones, tho v6 is said to be more fuel efficient?

[topaz veldt]

V6 is not as smooth

[brittle trellis]

This is discord... Everyone is everywhere

[heavy mantle]

okay thats neat to here so if am going with a e320 model i should better off go with a one from that kind then

soo then

a 1997 e320 it is

all that i care about really is that i can somewhat frequantly use it, not be bonkers in repair and gas not to be tooo much

[topaz veldt]

Generally an inline 6 is naturally balanced, a v6 is fundamentally trying to shake itself apart

So inline 6 is generally considered more reliable and durable

[heavy mantle]

alr then thnx

around this should be the way to go then

[topaz veldt]

I'm not sure how the transmissions are in them

In a 97 BMW 328 you want to avoid the autos

[heavy mantle]

i heard they are a bit meh tho am not tottaly sure

[topaz veldt]

And the manual uses a zf 320z which is stout but has one maintenance annoyance

[heavy mantle]

before i go buy buy, is there anything to look out for before i do?

[topaz veldt]

Dunno those cars specifically

[heavy mantle]

alr np

thnx

[thick frost]

a command no valorant player knows how to follow

[pallid marsh]

why is it upside down

[fervent scaffold]

Idk was in the mobo when I bought it

Bad sticker

Lol

[fervent scaffold]

Fixt

No but I actually did lmao

[pallid marsh]

now the mobo is upsidedown

[fervent scaffold]

Mustard

[indigo walrus]

This is fine - it's an Australian motherboard. Duh. /s

[pallid marsh]

i see no big spiders on it

[fervent scaffold]

That is because the kangaroos in my house are fist fighting them

[pallid marsh]

[fervent scaffold]

I can see they like the mustard

It is complete, now I can finally hand it off to my buddy so he can have his first pc lol

[pallid marsh]

smh using a daisy chain

[fervent scaffold]

Thing has a bomb for a psu

Built it for a friend, he insisted on paying me, I told him only parts, what he can afford, when he can afford it

[pallid marsh]

so give it two dedicated power cords

[fervent scaffold]

You think I dont want to? Lol

It doesn’t have a second one

[thick frost]

maybe ai isn’t so bad

[midnight night]

[vocal plume]

What uhhhh psu you got there mate

[fervent scaffold]

A bomb that came with the used case

[fervent scaffold]

The case and psu I bought used, but theyre both new parts lmao

But its still a bomb

[fervent scaffold]

Yes

[vocal plume]

Please dont sacrifice perfectly good hardware to the psu lotto

[fervent scaffold]

Id barely call it good hardware

Its on my buddy to upgrade it, I told him its a bomb

[vocal plume]

1080 ti is still a beast

[fervent scaffold]

Correct, I used it up until like 2 weeks ago when I upgraded to a 5070ti

Im not giving him the gpu, i told him hes borrowing the gpu until it dies or he can get a new one

[vocal plume]

Fair

What's the cpu?

[fervent scaffold]

I5 9400f

Idc if the gpu dies, I really want to make it wall art or something but I cant bring myself to do it if it still works

I am literally giving this to him without receiving any money, just because ive been enjoying building them

He insisted on paying me, I said he can pay me the $150 I spent on parts if he insists, when he can afford it

[pure garnet]

my sister is still using my 2060

[hollow hull]

oh wtf microcenter

[languid bloom]

system32 btw

bro this is the 2021 build why is this here 😭

oh nvm thats just driver imported libraries

pretty sure thats still nvidia

[hollow hull]

1tb skh p51 $170 -> $155 on amazon

holy optimal

[topaz veldt]

Weird

Not necessary any longer

[topaz veldt]

@turbid locust I left BF6 streams open on two devices.... Nothing

[shell void]

yeah but it’s cool beans

though i wish it was just a heatsink, the fan is unnecessary

[loud depot]

They come from the fan hub

Hello where do these connect?

[edgy laurel]

rip, mac got one in like an hour

[edgy laurel]

given they are fan connectors and they're coming from a fan hub.. probably to fans

about all anyone can say until you can share what they're labeled as on the hub itself

[brisk jolt]

gang burger king or mcd’s im pretty fucked for food options

[wraith steeple]

[brisk jolt]

like I need opinions man

only reason im considering BK is cuz mcd has a hugeass line

like 30 mins type shit

[whole lake]

chat, looks like im running out of space
||and i still need to download FH5||

[spare tinsel]

do you really need all of them

[edgy laurel]

installing things takes up space, news at 11...

[whole lake]

uh yeah

[whole lake]

not like i dont know it but, even 1tb feels less now

[spare tinsel]

its not so bad if only 2 games and/or they are smaller size
at least a new ssd isnt too pricey if you ahve the slot for it

[turbid locust]

Oof

[whole lake]

well sadly its a laptop so only 1 nvme ssd (c drive)
and 1 sata ssd (d drive)

[spare tinsel]

external it is

although hmm
its either that or...

[whole lake]

might have to delete some after i finish

[spare tinsel]

i heard ssds dont do so well when they start to run out capacity whatever that means

[topaz veldt]

how about you?

[whole lake]

yes

[turbid locust]

I got it on my main twitch account like 30 mins after I opened 4 tabs lol

Roughly 2 hours total

[topaz veldt]

god damnit

whatever its generally open tomorrow

[topaz veldt]

Where did the actual code come thru

[turbid locust]

Twitch inbox

[topaz veldt]

ah word

well, fuck everything

[turbid locust]

Idk if you can get multiple codes on one account but I can leave some tabs up while I’m at work today to try to get you a code

Wouldn’t be home till like 7:30 tho lol

[topaz veldt]

its all good

I decided to spend the next week or two at the beach anyway

[edgy laurel]

I wanna play. I was really having fun

who shot me! bastard!

[green marsh]

time for next SSD

[whole lake]

i aint got more slots... might put my other games on C drive (wd blue sn580 >>>>> samsung 870 evo)

[green marsh]

SATA SSDs are still a thing

[whole lake]

thats my d drive yep

[green marsh]

i mean even ITX boards usually come with 2-4 SATA connectors & 1 or more NVMe. DId you used all SATA & NVMe & PCIe slots (you can put NVMe into PCIe slots via adapters)

[whole lake]

in case you didnt know, i own a laptop
so only
1 sata slot -> used by samsung 870 evo (D:/)
1 nvme slot -> used by WD Blue sn580 (C:/)

so im basically full rn

[green marsh]

no optical bay (could be replaced by SATA SSD). Otherwise SATA/NVMe drive via USB adapter

[whole lake]

yeah external ssd could be an option for me. but lets see... might delete some games after they complete or better yet

put them on my C drive

[edgy laurel]

get faster internet, then you don't need to hoard games locally forever

[edgy laurel]

so absurd. one day I'd like to get one just because

[frank zealot]

oof. A remote employee at work whose PC I built just contacted me this morning
This might be a problem

[green marsh]

how remote is remote

Ain't that a super old bios

[frank zealot]

potentially, but that's not the issue

[green marsh]

nobody bats an eye about the 89C CPU temp 😄

[frank zealot]

welcome to what I'm seeing

[frosty prism]

This is why AIOs should die

A pump can't fail if there is no pump

[frank zealot]

ahhh fuck

best buy out that way has 2 heatsinks in stock.

Both are Hyper 212's >.<

[frosty prism]

Noooo

[frank zealot]

otherwise AIOs

[frosty prism]

No

Well it's bad or worse

[whole lake]

i did some googling and as long as i have 10-15% space free it doesnt matter how much i fill in

[spare tinsel]

[frank zealot]

FUCK YES!

She's close to a Microcenter! GO GO GADGET MC Tech Bench!!!!

[green marsh]

so she is going to fix it herself, or are you flying there, or what 😄

[frank zealot]

Microcenter Tech Bench

pay them and they install it 😛

[green marsh]

ah, and company will reimburse her ?

[frank zealot]

she has a company card

[green marsh]

well, same thing then 😄

[frank zealot]

that's not the part i'm worried about

[topaz veldt]

@turbid locust bro...

So I figured it out - the EA <-> Twitch link does not get discovered for quite some time

I never had this view all last night

BWAHAHA

[edgy laurel]

so you're in?

[green marsh]

i played one round yesterday and now i am away all weekend

[topaz veldt]

I got a code yeah

just in time for me to leave for a couple weeks lol

[edgy laurel]

so you're gonna miss next weekend too?

[topaz veldt]

yep

[edgy laurel]

14th-17th

[topaz veldt]

im not gonna lug a pc lol

Bringing my MBP w/ GF Now but I doubt it's on there

[edgy laurel]

na, but setup Parsec 😛

or moonlight/sunshine with your fancy VPN

[topaz veldt]

god that would suck so bad

[edgy laurel]

better than nothing

[topaz veldt]

FPS over like 90ms

[edgy laurel]

parsec is real nice

[brisk jolt]

the PCL is more than 80 thats for sure

[topaz veldt]

Can parsec run on macos

[edgy laurel]

i think so, yeah

[topaz veldt]

yeah client on macos

the line is not optimal let me drive it my way

https://tenor.com/view/i-know-more-than-you-i-know-you-smarter-smarty-pants-glaring-gif-15654642

[brisk jolt]

no i was scared u were gonna link her the peerless assassin

phantom spirit 120 evo is the only answer

very spicy mala

[frank zealot]

which is still a perfectly fine cooler

there isn't that much of a change between them

[edgy laurel]

his dual radiator 7800x3D/4090 T1 is still wild

[frank zealot]

Thermalright just clearly has a desire to have no fewer than 75 coolers on the market at any given point in time.

And they succeed at that.

[wraith steeple]

Dual XSPC TX 240s with A12x15s I see

[frank zealot]

that's crazy tiny

[wraith steeple]

Yep definitely XSPC TX240s

[edgy laurel]

lotta custom work

[hoary hatch]

That's beautiful

[wraith steeple]

They're 20mm thick. Those and the Alphacool ST20s are the thinnest ones I know of from big companies

[hoary hatch]

I was casually browsing 140mm air coolers for the heck of it, and I just got overwhelmed looking at all the thermalright options trying to find the difference

[edgy laurel]

I love that CPU block/pump

https://modultra.com/shop/ols/products/modultra-pump-block-plain-heatsink-combo

[wraith steeple]

Ah the DDC included CPU block. Yep that's definitely what I would go with for that build

[topaz veldt]

trying out parsec

[steel stream]

this is awesome, but I would realistically never take this apart lol

[edgy laurel]

lol yeah, one and done

[frank zealot]

"FUCK!!!! Fuckity fuck fuck fuck!!!!!!

Something broke >.< "

[topaz veldt]

this is so weird

[frank zealot]

I mean, realistically the changes are so insignificant that nobody needs to give a fuck

[topaz veldt]

it outputs in parsec AND on the monitor

[edgy laurel]

yeah

i think if you pay for it, there is a function to run in a "headless" type mode

with a virtual monitor

[frank zealot]

Of course, it quickly becomes obvious how they end up with so many models:

For Tower Coolers Alone:
120mm Single Tower
120mm Dual Tower
120mm Dual Tower (But very short)

Only 3 coolers, right?

But:
Silver
Black
White
RGB

.... now those 3 turned into 12 different coolers. And that's only 120mm tower coolers.

[edgy laurel]

yeah..

for the $8.33/m subscription

[topaz veldt]

its weird because the resolutions are confusing

[edgy laurel]

does he not have a microwave??

[topaz veldt]

I deleted it

[edgy laurel]

ffs...

[hoary hatch]

Yeah if you microwave on low you will soften, not melt, the butter

[edgy laurel]

thats gotta be the worst thing to get on your parts

its just going to solidify and you cant rinse it off

[steel stream]

yum

[hoary hatch]

Cleaning it is gonna be a real PITA

[frank zealot]

hair dryer

[steel stream]

at least it will smell good everytime you game

[hoary hatch]

Nuh uh

Think of the ants

[edgy laurel]

i guess rinsing in hot water then hot.. alcohol..?

[frank zealot]

warm everything up really well with a hair dryer

and then start spraying in iso

[brisk jolt]

nah atp dip the entire thing in iso

[hoary hatch]

Dump it in 70°C IPA

[edgy laurel]

yeah, or in the oven on a low setting to get everything warm then just pouring ISO

[hoary hatch]

Why do y'all shorthand the first word of isopropyl alcohol instead of using the full abbreviation 🤔

[edgy laurel]

fuck if i know, it just happened

[frank zealot]

is what it is

[steel stream]

because why not

[frank zealot]

and it's been called iso forever

[steel stream]

We don't talk cameras here so no ISO

[hoary hatch]

Yes ISO

Or international standards organization

[brisk jolt]

that gpu is certainly no longer gonna qualify as a vegan

[hoary hatch]

That GPU is cooked

[frank zealot]

and almost nobody in here gives a fuck about that ISO

[brisk jolt]

no need for oil or butter on the pan

[hoary hatch]

I love all the issues people are having by simply enabling secure boot for battlefield 6 lol

[edgy laurel]

its all over the place

[brisk jolt]

the issues? its just an issue of skill

[edgy laurel]

people are losing their minds

[turbid locust]

which is wild to me because how do you have windows 11 installed and not secure boot enabled

Was that not a requirement

[edgy laurel]

be jorj, somehow

[brisk jolt]

as a person who has downloaded valorant before this is light work

[turbid locust]

I don’t think I’ve ever had to go out of my way to enable secure boot

[brisk jolt]

i only had to once

[edgy laurel]

i guess if you did a Rufus install and disabled the requirements, you kinda just boned yourself

[turbid locust]

And like I’m a dude that swaps motherboards and platforms like a mf

[brisk jolt]

how did i not notice this at 24h spa

[turbid locust]

See I do this and still don’t have an issue lol

[hoary hatch]

Lol yup

[edgy laurel]

I think on modern platforms with updated BIOSes, its enabled by default possibly?

[brisk jolt]

i wanna swap to either a b850 or a x870e aorus elite ice ngl

[hoary hatch]

Also I have modern hardware and no reason not to use secure boot

[turbid locust]

I’ve had two AM5 boards and have my second LGA1700 board on the way lmfao

[hoary hatch]

But if you try to enable fast boot on my system I will hurt you

[turbid locust]

I need to disable that

[edgy laurel]

i've never turned that off

[brisk jolt]

anybody using fast boot here shall be hunted down

[turbid locust]

Wasn’t a problem on AMD but Intel yeah my system doesn’t actually shut down when I tell it to

[edgy laurel]

BIOS initialization on this board takes long enough

[turbid locust]

I’ll boot for the first time in days and it’ll say my uptime is like 4 days

[hoary hatch]

I've never left it on

[edgy laurel]

thats why you have a nearly 30 second POST time lmao

[brisk jolt]

gang should I downgrade to the b850 aorus elite and forsake the X870 steel legend to some kid

[turbid locust]

Not since 2023

[hoary hatch]

It used to be a minute on am4

[edgy laurel]

@hoary hatch

[turbid locust]

Oh lmao

[hoary hatch]

I said this is an improvement!

[wraith steeple]

[hoary hatch]

Nearly a minute*

I have a lot of Corsair USB devices

[turbid locust]

AM4 was always like 15 seconds at most for me

[edgy laurel]

My AM4 system when it was running Windows 11 was from a dead power off to the Windows login screen: 12 seconds dead.

Now with Linux its more like 25

[turbid locust]

AM5, when I first got on it, was 45 seconds to a minute every cold boot

Now it’s like 15-20

My 1700 system boots in like 10

[edgy laurel]

my AM5 system is still longer than I'd like. 30-35 seconds from power off to login screen

[hoary hatch]

I had a lot of USB devices

[tawdry carbon]

Saying 30 second boot time is long, lol, gtfo

[hoary hatch]

My AM4 system was my work icue testing rig

[turbid locust]

Hmmm that’s awhile

[edgy laurel]

#tech-chat-2 message

[hoary hatch]

So I had every Corsair device plugged in that I could

[turbid locust]

When you’re used to 10-15 seconds, it is lmao

[hoary hatch]

And I let it initialize all the USB on boot

[tawdry carbon]

Some boards no matter the boot drive in them have a longer then most boot up. 30 seconds is nothing.

[turbid locust]

Ok

[edgy laurel]

this isn't a boot drive/storage question, its all POST time

[hoary hatch]

My Skylake system booted pretty quick cause I had a mouse and keyboard and RGB mouse pad

[tawdry carbon]

The boot drive effects the post time ya dingus

Its all related

[hoary hatch]

I'm not crazy
Connected devices can affect the post time right

[tawdry carbon]

Especially if its razer products

[edgy laurel]

Respectfully, you have no idea what we're talking about.

[hoary hatch]

Naw I'm not that crazy

[tawdry carbon]

Respectfully, I do. And have for the past 30 years. The boot drive absolutely effects how long it takes a pc to post.

[hoary hatch]

Daily excel crash counter: 1

And work technically doesn't start for 9 more minutes

[tawdry carbon]

Nice

[steel stream]

Just saw a video title "HDMI Arc vs Toslink: Which is best for audio?" Actual Hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby moment

[hoary hatch]

I need technology connections to weigh in

[wise bear]

Having full usb init increases post time, having a bunch of active usb devices increases post time, having a bunch of drives increases post time

There are literally hundreds of variables

[hoary hatch]

Oh yeah when I had like a minute post time I had full USB usage, quad m.2, triple sata

I paid for the PCIe lane
I'm gonna use them

[brisk jolt]

im the bomb both of them are the coughing babies

[edgy laurel]

No, it does not, not in the way you're thinking. We're talking about pre-boot, hardware initialization. And the same drive can return different times on different hardware. You're completely misunderstanding.

[hoary hatch]

This is a lie
Corsair paid for the z690 system

[tawdry carbon]

1000% lol, I just hopped on and saw boot times lol

He beat me to it

[wise bear]

Aw do i not get my breakfast entertainment??

[frank zealot]

I had to troubleshoot a failed AIO from 2/3 of the way across the country this morning

[shell void]

the white is kinda clean i cannot lie

it would be even better without the dragon and msi logo on the back

[edgy laurel]

*silver

[shell void]

white

[shell void]

321URXW for white

[wise bear]

I get an xfinity tech coming to look at my line this morning- Do I bribe him with muffins or jerky to do some deep snooping

[hoary hatch]

Make that 2

What the fuck man this is my normal Excel usage why it crashing

Usually only crash when I'm wireless displaying a meeting

[frank zealot]

might help lol

[edgy laurel]

sure looks mostly silver to me on the back. either way, no idea why you'd want a bright white border around your display, that seems very distracting. Also looks kinda cheap

[topaz veldt]

what sucks is that you can basically just make a black white with vinyl on the front lower lip, obviously never see the back unless in some specific cases

[edgy laurel]

i guess its just the bottom

[topaz veldt]

is it even around? i think its black around the bezel and just white bottom

[edgy laurel]

yeah just the bottom but that seems like it would stick out, no thanks

[brisk jolt]

anything msi produces without the dragon would be better

[shell void]

it would be nice if it had a full wraparound white front bezel

[steel stream]

amen

[shell void]

it would be kinda like bias contrast

[topaz veldt]

I dragon deleted mine

[frank zealot]

can I just say this looks fuckin' glorious?

[edgy laurel]

thats incredible

just don't touch it

[frank zealot]

ever

keeps a stash of rubber tipped chopsticks around to open and swap carts

[topaz veldt]

rubber chopped tip sticks

LOL...

sleezeball low balls me on a brand new z890i nova and then wants me to commit fraud lol

[brisk jolt]

tax evasion and fraud

[edgy laurel]

lol, thats so scummy

[topaz veldt]

fuck tax evasion thats customs fraud

[shell void]

XDDDDD

matte qd oled is so bad

[steel stream]

I <3 my grape display

[topaz veldt]

thats bad

It just permenantly shows the Ubuntu login background

[steel stream]

I thinky one of my buddies got one of the matte QD-OLED Samsung TVS, and man

[pure garnet]

why is the display ubuntu purple

[shell void]

let’s take the display tech that loses contrast when light is diffused across the panel and put an additional layer on top to encourage more light diffusion across the panel

the team over at samsung electronics are geniuses

[steel stream]

YESSSSSSS

Samsung just employs the brightest minds

[shell void]

tbf they’re just serving what people ask for

for whatever reason people asked for matte qd oled

and it gets praised in normie reviews on amazon and bestbuy which shocks me

[steel stream]

it's kinda nuts

people love the matte

[edgy laurel]

from https://youtu.be/NWIOU15pNpA

nice, both of those shots were from two accounts in the same game running together

VRAM usage difference is strange

[steel stream]

yeah

[edgy laurel]

he actually says he doesn't know why that is

[steel stream]

265K is just so good it uses the GPU more? /s

[edgy laurel]

i really like that he's got two accounts in the same game, to eliminate that variable

[shell void]

so much lower fps than framechasers got on both his 9800x3d and 14900k pcs

chasers was getting like 235-265 average on both

[topaz veldt]

That AMDip tho

[vestal granite]

it was a test the governt was testin you good call

[edgy laurel]

huh?

[dapper junco]

lower 1% low or something idk

[edgy laurel]

settings?

[topaz veldt]

This is odd

8137MB vs 9560MB

[edgy laurel]

hes explaining that after going over the settings many times, that was always happening

andhe doesn't know why

[vestal granite]

hmmmmm

[edgy laurel]

its very strange

[vestal granite]

is it because Intel is bad

[steel stream]

https://tenor.com/view/punisher-no-no-no-tanklorde-gif-13191678230910881285

[vestal granite]

hmmm

[topaz veldt]

Intel is INJECTING textures into VRAM

[edgy laurel]

yeah those are just faster chips

[topaz veldt]

1080p is so pointless though

like yes, we get it 9800X3D is faster at 1080p

[vestal granite]

that ones vram is opposite way around

[topaz veldt]

dumb test is dumb

Its revenue content until they have something to actually do

they even foreshadowed "so like this game isn't even launched yet.. so.."

BUT FIRST LETS DO TESTING lol

[edgy laurel]

you would too

[shell void]

☠️

[edgy laurel]

he makes is super plain why none of it matters, but people want it so you don't turn down free money

[topaz veldt]

I wouldn't do it but let me tell you why - I am lazy

[edgy laurel]

well, lol..

[vestal granite]

why's it 144p

[topaz veldt]

I would make a 4 minute video without any actual benchmarks and I'd just say "Yes, guess what - 1080p on X3D is faster than 265K just take my word for it"

BUT 5nail5 HOW DO WE KNOW?

Wellllll - we can refer to any other fucking game test lollolol

[vestal granite]

that's silly I'm gonna make a game that intentionally slows itself down on X3D chips to prove you wrong if you do that

[topaz veldt]

BUT WAIT

at 640p the 9800X3D is faster still

[steel stream]

Ok but this would actually be hilarious

[shell void]

if you do not enjoy memory tuning then you should not buy into arrowlake for a gaming focused computer, simple enough

[vestal granite]

It's an unfair gameplay advantage to have more than 60fps, lock everyone's FPS to 60.

[steel stream]

speaking of I still ned to do this

[steel stream]

agreed
