[pure garnet]

the m die booted at a lower voltage on my old board but considering the last board couldn't handle 56 seconds of tm5

gonna just assume it wasn't training properly

[merry stirrup]

usually as you scale up freq rrdl wants to be increased a tick or two

[pure garnet]

voltages are 1.55vdd/1.45vddq/1.45viddo since it doesn't report it

[merry stirrup]

like i see configs with 8/10 or 8/12

[shell void]

[pure garnet]

480p zoid

my goat

[merry stirrup]

the compression squared

[shell void]

god bless 1080p screencapture

[pure garnet]

the only thing at irks me about this board is that randomly msi just like bricks gear 2 on this board with updates

[merry stirrup]

lo

[pure garnet]

a44 was okay but a bit buggy, a61 and a67 just do NOT work in uclk/div2

im on a65 with minimal issues now

but i mean if not updating the thing for the sake of updating it saves me $600 over a hero/apex idrc

[shell void]

nope it's time to box it back up and order an apex

buy my 9800x3d too

[pure garnet]

hell nah if i got an apex i'd get 9950x3d

spending more than my gpu on a motherboard

not really big brain

and it doesn't even have supplemental pcie power what a loss

[topaz veldt]

No longer hungry

[merry stirrup]

fr man i ordered food yesterday from some chinese place wit good ratings and it was terrible

[shell void]

they forgot to sear all of the sides of your scallops

[young void]

[wraith steeple]

I don't know what any of this is

[hoary hatch]

how about

ioniq 6 🤔

[humble relic]

right i need help i have gotten 2 ncr pos terminals and they had no drives and i’m trying to find some of the drivers for the customer display and the cash draw and also a good free pos software can anyone help me please

[topaz veldt]

naw dog

[merry stirrup]

kraber

[fringe vigil]

Im so busy i dont have time for BF

Even mafia toc

Ugh

[ripe needle]

Call of duty?

[merry stirrup]

👍

[hoary hatch]

finally experienced the XeSS memory leak on BF6

[edgy laurel]

i just noticed VRAM usage is reasonable. 4K DLSS Quaity = 10GB flat

[pastel scaffold]

Anyone know if nvidia grid k1 cards can be used to make a cluster and add vram as slave cards to a mother gpu?

[topaz veldt]

Good thing I got 32GB

[frank zealot]

Do you think that you can solder like a pro?

https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1CXLAWXfWN/

God damn

[young void]

That was neats

Didn't know it could dime like that

[shell void]

@merry stirrup u listen to the yeat dangerous summer album?

[brisk jolt]

is mafia gud

[young void]

Whats wrong with the masters?

[shell void]

nothin i love mine

[young void]

Oh ok xD

[turbid locust]

@edgy laurel lol theres a bug that ive experienced at least 3 times in BF6 today

I'll go down as one class, get res'd, and stand up as an entirely different class

[brisk jolt]

midlife career change

[pure garnet]

can't run 1000w through it tho

[shell void]

true it's so beyond over

[turbid locust]

dude it's so odd

like it fucks me up so bad lol. I'll go from a medic with a carbine, to a sniper

[edgy laurel]

thats a new one. i've screwed myself up picking up someone elses kit before

[turbid locust]

You can do that?

[edgy laurel]

yep, changes your whole class i think

[turbid locust]

maybe thats what I'm doing by accident? idk. It's so strange though

it's happened like 3 times now. Go down as Engi, stand up as Recon.

[west topaz]

I have a weird error that prevents me from using built in microsoft tools that involve the messasge "not valid profile" what type of error would i list it as on tech support ;-;

[brisk jolt]

dudes switchin characters

[turbid locust]

let me find where I clipped it earlier

[turbid locust]

long ass clip + friends yapping but i couldnt bother to trim it lol

But I go down as Engi with a DMR and get res'd into a Recon with a sniper.

you can tell i was confused AF because I pulled out my C4 expecting it to be an RPG

[brisk jolt]

idk clip is bugged for me I cant see any motion its just stuck

[turbid locust]

ah my clip is pulling a Guilty

are you on mobile

[edgy laurel]

ya that looks correct, quality wise

[brisk jolt]

yeah

[turbid locust]

yeah our clips are too powerful for discord mobile lol

[shell void]

doesnt work on my phone but my 5090 can play it

[brisk jolt]

discord mobile is just shit in general

like icl the amt of times it just doesnt send shit properly

[edgy laurel]

the player on discord chokes on them

[brisk jolt]

it sucks at sending and playing media

[turbid locust]

But yeah that bug is super cursed cause it just causes you to totally change your playstyle in an instant

[zenith fog]

I just got a Gigabyte 3070 oc, x570 strix itx, 5900x, 16gb ram, 970 evo 1tb for $140 usd

[brisk jolt]

ok

[zenith fog]

Guy said he couldn’t get it to work, I just plugged it in and turned it on and fired right up

[brisk jolt]

he didnt try hard enough

[zenith fog]

Apparently not

[turbid locust]

lol nice

gonna use it or sell for profit?

[zenith fog]

Not sure. I have a 5700x3d 64gb 7900xtx so I may swap the cpu not sure yet tho

[brisk jolt]

5700x3d is better for gaming

[turbid locust]

would be worse for gaming yeah

[brisk jolt]

i’d keep 5900x as a productivity pc since it has more cores if needed

[turbid locust]

Would make a nice secondary machine or home server tho

[brisk jolt]

but that 16gb ram will prob bite back lel

[turbid locust]

easy fix

DDR4 is so cheap now

[brisk jolt]

true he got the thing for 170

[zenith fog]

Has a evga 450 bronze so I might upgrade that first

[brisk jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/cyberpunk-stick-some-iron-up-your-mouth-and-pull-the-trigger-johnny-silverhand-gif-26931703

[heavy mantle]

smash

he is so sexy

[zenith fog]

Also has a cooler master 120mm aio but it seems like either needs a re paste or replacement all together since it’s idling at 55c

[pure garnet]

literal ewaste bc it can't handle xoc

[young void]

[turbid locust]

@edgy laurel I am simply going to take your advice about literally everything when it comes to configuring stuff like HDR and this global framerate cap stuff. My games are BUTTERY with this now.

[edgy laurel]

the points cheatcode is sit on a tank and rep when necessary. not in, on

threading the needle

props to that ifv driver

[odd kayak]

Gpu psu question
Friend (in pic) has gpu XFX 7900XTX and PSU EVGA 750BQ
Hes asking about the PSU cables in hand and if they will do. I assume he can ignore the extra dangly 6 holed piece, and use 3 wires for it. But I want to ask here to be sure

[edgy laurel]

smooth is king

[turbid locust]

no kidding

I've been that "unlimited fps cap no vsync for best latency" guy for years atp

it's not worth the tearing and microstutter

[pure garnet]

i run capped fps from rtss usually

i haven’t dealt with tearing in a long time though

[edgy laurel]

its almost like Nvidia has a point with gsync

[turbid locust]

https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1lokih2/putting_misconceptions_about_optimal_fps_caps/ experience tranquility

[young void]

3 of those yes

8 pin to the gpu per each slot

[pure garnet]

i run gsync off by choice but my card isn’t fast enough to do that fps in my games

[brisk jolt]

Mac hasnt been capping his fps?

[odd kayak]

So to be sure, cause the pic I see seems to be one wire of 2+6+6, just do 3x 2+6 and ignore the third 6 each?

[turbid locust]

I have but usually to whatever my 1% lows were

[young void]

Thats what id do. Idk why it has a extra 6 pin unless thats the psu side. But regardless 1 to 1

[turbid locust]

For Valorant, where I would be getting like 1000fps at points, id cap it to like 400 or something

but now I followed that guide and shits buttery

[brisk jolt]

400 fps on 144hz

Im 360hz and I do a 400 fps cap

[turbid locust]

yeah apparenntly thats the opposite of what youre supposed to do

[edgy laurel]

I wish Blurbusters did a GSync 101 series 2025 edition. Fully updated, not running off of 2016 data like the current one.

still a lot of fantastic learning in there, just some of it needs updating

[turbid locust]

I still dont quite understand the technical aspects of the whole "cap slightly under your refresh rate for the 0.3ms buffer" thing but

im seeing the results so im trusting it

[edgy laurel]

frametime overshoot. capping right at your max refresh games will still overshoot, in simple terms

so you'll be bouncing in out out of VRR

better to just stay inside the pocket all the time

[turbid locust]

hmmm i see

[edgy laurel]

these are great to read

just needs a little updating

[pure garnet]

i have vrr off so i don't think i'd see much of a difference then

[edgy laurel]

this doesn't make any sense

[brisk jolt]

wdym

[edgy laurel]

its not really fixing or preventing anything other than maybe power savings

[pure garnet]

that's the only reason i cap my fps

[shell void]

i cap my fps to double the refresh if im not using VRR, there's not any reason behind that, i just figure itll be high enough to keep my lows above the refresh rate

[pure garnet]

power savings + lets me watch youtube while i do basic stuff in game

[shell void]

and i dont need to be rendering 1000fps in valorant

[turbid locust]

You should be capping to 324fps for that 0.3ms buffer

fps cap + vsync + Reflex is within 1ms latency of an uncapped framerate

[brisk jolt]

If I uncap ts its gonna use twice the power which is unecessary so yea power savings

[shell void]

when are one of you goons going to play val with me

[pure garnet]

are you free tomorrow

[turbid locust]

You should be using a cap like this with Gsync on even in eSports titles like CS and Valorant! Using these caps in addition to Gsync + Vsync will result in latency that is within 1ms of uncapping your FPS with Reflex on. Techless on YT proved that with Gsync set up properly, a FPS cap on a 240Hz monitor has only 0.6ms more latency than an uncapped FPS, with Reflex on, hitting 500+ FPS in Valorant or CS. It makes no sense to incur screen tearing and micro stutters (due to fluctuating frame times) by uncapping your FPS just to save 0.6ms of latency. The stuttering and tearing of uncapped FPS often leads to a higher perceived latency because of how un-smooth the experience is, making it harder to track enemies and land precise shots. Valve officially recommends Gsync + Vsync + Reflex for CS2.

[edgy laurel]

yeah, thats no good either.

[shell void]

family is visiting for the next week or two, but i should be able to find a free couple hours in the evening

[turbid locust]

bro ive offered several times but im on a BF grind now

[pure garnet]

evening good with me

[brisk jolt]

on opposite timezones gang

[turbid locust]

im only on val rn to see what the fps cap is like on what I would usually run at hella high fps

[pure garnet]

my raid group stopped for the tier so i got time now

[edgy laurel]

might be true but no one in that scene will even hear about it

[shell void]

or we could run it up like 9:30 to midnight

[edgy laurel]

anyway @turbid locust i hope the progression at least sticks until next weekend

[pure garnet]

that works for me

[turbid locust]

like dude now that I think about it, in esports shooters I play, one thing that has caused me to improperly implement caps is FPS swings

[edgy laurel]

I managed Lvl 18, but i'm hopping off. wanna collect all those Challenges for the hell of it

[turbid locust]

like constantly swinging between 600 and 800fps feels worse than capped 138fps lol

[shell void]

big dog you cannot tell

[turbid locust]

I think im also Level 18. Debating getting back on but idk.

[shell void]

even your 0.1% lows are gonna be like 2x your refresh rate, and with reflex enabled the input delay will be consistent

[turbid locust]

you definitely can lmfao

[shell void]

it's in your head

[brisk jolt]

even at 400 fps my 1% lows are like 200

200+*

[turbid locust]

it's a perceived latency

[shell void]

i turn off fps monitoring while playing comp games because i dont want to be looking at it while i play

[turbid locust]

But yeah theres def something to this. It's noticable.

[brisk jolt]

I turn it off during casual gameplay(not benchmarking/experimenting)

[shell void]

[brisk jolt]

b u r n i n

[turbid locust]

I will simply always have an fps counter on

[shell void]

i still wanna play with a 480/500/540hz oled monitor to try out 3x and 4x framegen

and just experience good motion

[turbid locust]

I cannot fathom >240hz being worth the money

[shell void]

the highest ive used is 390hz and it made me giggle a little bit playing fortnite because it felt lubed

240hz is a fair stopping point though

generally ill ask for a resolution upgrade first if i already have 240Hz

[brisk jolt]

rn theres a 480hz by LG for like $1180 SGD, Samsung’s 500hz is another $100

360hz is already hella fast, its just that I cant keep up when Im back dropped fresh into val

[shell void]

i wont feel complete until i have an 8K 2000Hz monitor

retina ppi and retina refresh rate

[brisk jolt]

bro is aiming for the a2+b2=c2 on the forehead

I’d say 240hz is a good point, 480+ is quite endgame for esports

[merry stirrup]

just put it on

[brisk jolt]

I can def go back to 240 from 360

[shell void]

M.F.U. is the best one

idk why people are playing IM YEAT the most

[merry stirrup]

apple says a couple other ones are the most played rn

[turbid locust]

I went back to 144 from 240 really easily

[brisk jolt]

4k 480hz when guys

[shell void]

real talk only a couple years

5K 165Hz next year, maybe 4K 360Hz

[turbid locust]

LG C6 4K 240Hz plz 🙏

[merry stirrup]

idk i really like it

[brisk jolt]

If it comes out in 2027 Im ready to drop a bomb for 6090 and 4k480hz

[merry stirrup]

300fps in apex is straight bust

[brisk jolt]

Finally I can flex Im watching myself get shit on in 4k 480hz

[shell void]

i am so ready for 5K gaming monitors to finally exist

ive been waiting for this for a decade

[brisk jolt]

Im still between getting bigger monitor or better ppi

[turbid locust]

I think my problem is not wanting to go back to smaller than 42"

[shell void]

42" is cool beans but i think 37" is a better size tbh

42" is just slightly too big for a large monitor

[brisk jolt]

I wouldnt play esports on anything above 32’

[merry stirrup]

a 32 for games sounds nice

[turbid locust]

thats cause youre a casual

[merry stirrup]

sad my oled wasnt 32inch

[shell void]

doesnt really matter to me if i can adjust viewing distance to be appropriate

[brisk jolt]

ik one guy who does 1080p 32’ and its fucking blurry since 1080p and theres so much info u need to take in man like listen

[shell void]

the main thing holding this c4 back in comp games is that it's only 144hz

[turbid locust]

My desk would look dumb with anything smaller atp lol

yeah if C4 was 240Hz I would simply not upgrade till 2030

[shell void]

a single 32" monitor looks really nice on a large desk

[merry stirrup]

i am not a single monitor enjoyer

[turbid locust]

But i still firmly believe 144hz is enough for 99% of people

[merry stirrup]

'need the brainrot

[turbid locust]

The diminishing returns past 144hz are wild

[brisk jolt]

listen man I should put the fuckass portable monitor to use

I just need bigger desk

[merry stirrup]

i mean yeah but not like i dont feel the difference between 144 and 360

[turbid locust]

144 to 240 was nice and all but not the end of the world

[shell void]

i havent used a display that's high enough refresh to cut into diminishing returns

[merry stirrup]

360hz is noticably better

[shell void]

144 -> 240 is obvious and so was 240 -> 390

but 240 feels fluid enough to where i could forget about it

[merry stirrup]

my tracking improved going from 144 to 360/300 in apex

[brisk jolt]

my basis for a good refresh rate upgrade is about x1.75-x2

[turbid locust]

144 to 240 was noticeable for me but I did not think it was that big of a buff personally. I'd say it felt 10-15% better

[heavy mantle]

anything above 90 hurts my eyes

well usable, but hurtsy

[shell void]

it should hurt your eyes less

[brisk jolt]

I went from 180 to 240 both IPS, I only noticed the pixel density

Now if we’re talking to the oled 360hz my flicking is more consistent

[turbid locust]

Besides it's not like im pushing 240Hz in BF6 anyway

[brisk jolt]

but imo 240hz is the range where 1k polling rate mice start to lag behind

[heavy mantle]

well

[turbid locust]

this is schizophrenia i believe

[shell void]

unfortunately it's not

2KHz+ polling will be worthwhile once youre on a 480Hz+ monitor

on a 144Hz display it doesnt matter

[brisk jolt]

listen man I feel like something was weighing the mouse back on the screen when I went to 240

[shell void]

it's about polling consistency more than it's about latency

[humble relic]

can someone help this sounds so stupid but is there a software for like serial thermal printers to print like images and shi or am i being stupid cuz i cant find one windows btw

[turbid locust]

I’ve considered pulling my 27” 1440p 240Hz OLED back out and just plopping it infront of my C4 to use for awhile just to experience it again but meh

[shell void]

if you use an 800dpi 1KHz mouse on a 500Hz oled then you will notice the inconsistency in the placement of the cursor while you drag it around your desktop

3200dpi 2KHz is fine for now though

8KHz bullies your cpu

[turbid locust]

I will always be 800dpi gang

[humble relic]

same.

[turbid locust]

If I ever change it, it’ll be to 1600dpi and I’ll just halve all my sensitivities in game lol

[brisk jolt]

Im on 1600 bcs I need speed

[merry stirrup]

900 dpi

[edgy laurel]

sensor dpi increasing is about resolution though. different than what you set things to in software

[shell void]

you will shave a few milliseconds off of your input delay in slow tracking motions if you bump up to 1600dpi

[merry stirrup]

this is true

[pure garnet]

i run 800 bc it feels good in windows

im not good enough at games to care about minimising the latency of my input

[turbid locust]

bros telling me I can’t see 300fps swings above my refresh rate but saying THIS shit

[brisk jolt]

Higher refresh rate feels great when swinging tho

[shell void]

i am purely objective

you are not noticing frame swings when your 0.1% lows are like 300fps anyway and youre on a 144hz display

[brisk jolt]

It makes those camping close more easily hittable

Peeker’s advantage really scales with hz

[shell void]

dpi and polling rate are measurable and recordable improvements

plus you can just see it without trying to if youre picky

[brisk jolt]

I might be the only madman who used 1200 on 24’

[shell void]

thats valid

choosing comfort and ease of use over minimizing latency is fine

[turbid locust]

But uh yeah anyways

cpu and gpu upgrade for me before display

[brisk jolt]

I mean in all honesty I’d prefer to avoid hopping in games with yapping kids in the first place in the game called valorant

so I’d say 4k is worth it

[shell void]

shockingly i havent heard the n word a single time since i started playing again a few days ago

im sure i wouldve heard it in the first match if i picked up CS2 instead

[shell void]

absolutely yeah 2160p is more than twice as many pixels as 1440p and it's instantly obvious

[brisk jolt]

I was duo’d with my friend ytd and some bot frag reyna was callin me stupid and the n word

[zenith fog]

[brisk jolt]

needless to say riot did their job

[edgy laurel]

[shell void]

that's a nice $50 build

[zenith fog]

Ikr

[turbid locust]

@shell void you on val rn?

[topaz veldt]

He is

It's all he plays

[turbid locust]

down to run it mike

im probably gonna be pretty rusty cause I havent played in awhile but lol

[topaz veldt]

I played some Mafia on Mac GF Now, totally usable

[shell void]

nah i shut my PC off 5 minutes ago xddd

[brisk jolt]

Was gonna say I’d hop on val but I’d get fucked by the server

[turbid locust]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-gif-10397266617194121558

Considering selling my 7700x

but that would leave me without an AM5 cpu for... awhile

[brisk jolt]

use as a secondary machine

and then get z6x3d when the time comes

[turbid locust]

I really have no use tbh

[shell void]

literally right after this i shutdown

[pure garnet]

14900k too slow

[turbid locust]

not that it's too slow, I think I just want max effort machine next go around

well not max effort but close lol

I'm sure im not gonna want to pay 6090 prices

[shell void]

U9 495K + Z990 Apex + 2x32GB (new single rank dimms) + 6090 Matrix

[turbid locust]

Zen6X3D + 6080

Assuming the 6080 is faster than the 5090...

[shell void]

zzzzz

[pure garnet]

my 7800x3d is too slow for me but im waiting for a new io die before i buy anything

[shell void]

the monkeys paw curls

[turbid locust]

if the 6080 isnt faster than the 5090 I will simply buy one of 5nail's 5090s

[shell void]

you now get TWO new IODs with one memory channel per IOD

[pure garnet]

if its faster in xiv

good enough for me

might try and a 6400 setup since i got 8k good now

[turbid locust]

My upgrade will be entirely decided by GTA 6

[shell void]

code Ab inbound

[pure garnet]

fr

im convinced the ebay seller knew the io die on here was beyond fried

i also have my a die kit to play with

[brisk jolt]

Im gonna guess its once again only gonna match with a high end model’s vbios OC

[turbid locust]

I mean dude it's AM5

the fact you can even run 8000 makes it better than my 7700x

[pure garnet]

my fabric will not really do much

also its the 800 series board carrying

[turbid locust]

mine maxes at 2133 in the absolute best scenario

[pure garnet]

mine will only do 2133 if the voltage is low enough

otherwise it can't do over 2000

like 1.25v will not let it do 2133

[turbid locust]

Yeah mine does like 2000-2033 at that voltage

@edgy laurel framerate cap thing feels awful in CS2 for some reason

[pure garnet]

source sucks at low fps

[turbid locust]

nvm I restarted the gane now it's butter

idk it seems like the game cant decide if it's gonna feel like shit or not

eh, whatever. Not like that game is in a playable state anyway

[edgy laurel]

feels fine to me but I don't play this game

everything about this kind of game i hate

[hoary hatch]

Did you see the recent i made this shit up to get clicks MLID leaks

[turbid locust]

It just was a really weird feeling

[hoary hatch]

For uhhh Nova lake

[turbid locust]

It felt like 144hz but it didnt look like it

like when I shook my mouse round it looked like 60fps

[edgy laurel]

i think this bot match was the only time i've completed a game of CS in 20 years

[hoary hatch]

Actually this is from a few days ago I think

[brisk jolt]

yesh

from moores law guy iirc

[hoary hatch]

Lmao

PTL quad core to desktop???

Dude if 18a is that bad it's joever

But their yields might just be ass

Starting to think that going full* EUV + GAAFET + BSPDN in one node may have been a bad idea

[topaz veldt]

TSMC 495K gonna be lit

[turbid locust]

I hope Intel has a comeback solely to give AMD a reality check

[vestal granite]

im proud of you

[turbid locust]

As cool as X3D is, $470 for an 8 core cpu is still insane

[hoary hatch]

Best I can do is 600W boost

[vestal granite]

guilty did you ever get around to watching the highlight video i sent of that CS player to show you that shroud is old

[hoary hatch]

But seriously 52 core under full boost is gonna be toasty

[turbid locust]

12 core v cache CCD on a new node sounds

Also new IMC yk

[brisk jolt]

passing for NVL

most ill do is change mobo

[turbid locust]

Knowing me I will simply go for what’s best value for the money ngl

Well, to an extent

[brisk jolt]

I just wanna get NVL Z990i cuz funny number

[hoary hatch]

990....

I am missing a joke here

[brisk jolt]

nah i just prefer shit thats at the end till another digit

[hoary hatch]

Oh like 990FX?

[turbid locust]

Idk either man

[brisk jolt]

its just a me thing

(its just an excuse to hop to intel)

[hoary hatch]

LGA1851-Next (aka NVL socket) would be a good opportunity for Intel to change up the chipset naming

Like are we gonna do 1090 1190 1290 etc?

[brisk jolt]

isnt NVL speculated to be 1954

[frank cypress]

windows is not gonna handle that well

[hoary hatch]

1900 2900 3900?

[frank cypress]

😭

3 different types of cores, 52 total cores like

[hoary hatch]

I don't even remember what the rumored is, so I say LGA1851-Next because Nova lake is on the next socket after lga1851

[frank cypress]

that can't be pretty to schedule

[fervent elm]

In that crusty sc you sent its 1954

[brisk jolt]

its supposed to be lga 1954

[hoary hatch]

Idk why tweaktown has a 144p screenshot tool

[fervent elm]

Lmao

[hoary hatch]

I'm watching the live action how to train your dragon

[fervent elm]

1954
Is next socket a return to 2011?
V5 yes

[hoary hatch]

This shit sucks why did they make this

Well I know why they made it cause it's giant ad for the theme park

[hoary hatch]

But seriously most of this acting is bad and it's looks fine at best

[hoary hatch]

So much better

It doesn't help I was trying to read the crusty one on mobile embed

[brisk jolt]

dude urs looked blurry as fuck

[young void]

Yooo snails if you where serious earlier send your guy a link lol all good if not

[fervent elm]

Core Ultra (power consumption)

[turbid locust]

It’s so funny because like yes Intel chips run warm

but they run warm… at double the wattage as AMD at the same power

so they’re not infernos but like yeah

[young void]

Exactly

If you disable mce and set watts to 170-200 they're icy

[turbid locust]

My 7700x runs hotter at 140W than my 14900K does at 260W

[hoary hatch]

Like I said, tweaktown has a 144p screenshot/embed tool for some reason

[hoary hatch]

Aka Intel has a better IHS

[turbid locust]

Yeah basically

[pure garnet]

i mean the amd one is about 14 inches thick

to make it work on am4 coolers still

[hoary hatch]

Let's hope am6 kills compatibility

[pure garnet]

i think they’ve actually said they’re still trying not to

[hoary hatch]

Or, hear me out, how about thicker IHS

[pure garnet]

which is bonkers because it’s just a hindrance

[hoary hatch]

Yeah you're allowed to change your cooler mounting once every 12 years

[pure garnet]

doesn’t am3 use the same mount too

at least with the hooks

[hoary hatch]

Uhhh I think so

[fervent elm]

The amd clip on cooler design dates back to am2

The issue is less ihs design and more pure density
Amd chips really haven't grown in size

[brisk jolt]

i really rather them just discard and let us have better ihs

its either they boost further or they keep the same fuckass design

[fervent elm]

They could keep the current design and just make it bigger and it'd help a lot
Having 20 years of cpu cooler compatibility is nice but not when its limiting your performance

[hoary hatch]

They're allowed to change once in 20 years

Also a lot of the better cooler manufacturers will send you a mounting kit

Or you can buy one for other manufacturers

[devout ridge]

offset mount helps loads

[young void]

[hoary hatch]

Make am6 direct die

Fuckin cowards

[fervent elm]

They did it in the 2000s

Bad Things™ happened, iirc

What's the portable lap keyboard and mousepad device Linus has used in his videos?

[merry stirrup]

its crazy how high usage i see in games with the ks

[green marsh]

poor people who would get confused that AM1 is newer than AM2/AM3 😄

[low sorrel]

hey floppa

whats good song to listen to

[brittle trellis]

An old Corsair product

[vast karma]

I assume it's not in production anymore, any recommendations?

[brittle trellis]

Nope

[hollow hull]

like a keyboard+touchpad? Logitech k400

[cosmic tulip]

Does anyone have any recommendations for good games for an 8 year old that can run on low end hardware?

Working with this so not great.

Already got Minecraft and Roblox. Installing Fortnite just to see how it’ll run atm.

[vast karma]

My friend wants to use his own mouse so that won't work

[brittle trellis]

Job application simulator 2025

[brisk jolt]

a slur

[cosmic tulip]

Not my dumbass actually thinking that was a game

[fickle karma]

when i tried to put my hand on my gpu while playing i got burned

whit a b580🗿

[mint siren]

is the 5060 and 5 5600x a good combo?

[brisk jolt]

a b580 isnt hot at all

[fickle karma]

i dunno it reaches 70c while gaming

nahh what is this

[brisk jolt]

aka not hot

[fickle karma]

yeah

still i felt it

[brisk jolt]

dude what u felt was warm

if you really want to play go touch the die directly

[blissful helm]

9060xt and consider am5

[mint siren]

but i only have 1000$ aud and i want the dlss

plus im only gonna be playing for 1 year

[frosty prism]

Used pc

[fickle karma]

Omg ryzen 5.600x on old mobo

Fake

Idk what is this but looks similar to ryzen

[brisk jolt]

cld be an athlon

idk much about old cpus

might also be fx

[cedar seal]

Doubt it's an fx

Doesn't look like an am3+ socket or an am3

Probably fs1b socket

Im atm using my Audeze Max mic for gaming with friends, but im running into troubles with the microphone levels, and from what i can gather, there isnt much to do about it. SO... im looking to find a stand alone mic, tho i know nothing about them. Ive seen alot using the "RØDE" brand, but is there somethiong like "GO TO" when it comes to Mics?

My S90D is now having issues where the screen just occasionally flashes on and off :)

But blade runner 2049 looked and sounded great last night

[edgy laurel]

[steel stream]

Fantastic looking TV, HDR content is great, but I've already contacted woot support

[edgy laurel]

oh shit

[steel stream]

Yeah my return period ends on the 17th, so trying to see what I can do before that

I have to spend today determining what the cause of the screen flashing black is, if it's a bad connection or smth then I will ask for a partial refund hopefully, for most movies or content consumption those pixels in the corner don't do much

[wraith steeple]

https://youtu.be/4qN130ySBqE?si=WH7dou2ipAS4uL3r

Oh and I see they have that Water-cooled DDC thing-a-majig going on that they showed off in a different video a few months back

[steel stream]

yippee

(I don't have Prime)

[steel stream]

so what does he do when he wants to upgrade? this has to just be a one and done system

[versed crow]

terraria

[versed crow]

its not meant to be upgraded its his work pc and it has a 3090 and 9950x

[wraith steeple]

I do wonder that myself especially since he said that this will primarily be a workstation build for CAD projects and such. Personally I would have done either a pure air-cooled build or even EPDM with QDCs if they wanted to do future upgrades.... But it is Billet Labs so meh

[versed crow]

it will be years before he needs more than that for a work pc

[wraith steeple]

It's definitely cool looking, I'll give them that

[steel stream]

yeah I love how it looks

[wraith steeple]

[edgy laurel]

its a business, so its mostly a showpiece

"The computer's not working! We've tried everything!"

Their boss goes out, pulls the power cord, plugs it back in, and hey! it works!

"Well, we tried the power button, but that didn't work!"

so, now, "everything" means one thing?

[edgy laurel]

I got a call from my dad on Saturday about his TV/chromecast issues. I went over there and pulled the power from the TV and plugged it back in. It was fine.

[frank zealot]

yeah, I'd have been mad if they made me spend 90 minutes round trip to unplug a monitor

[frosty prism]

xd

[frank zealot]

so, it looks like my watercooling bits and bobs should be there today/tomorrow.

[frosty prism]

what happened with the AIO guy

[frank zealot]

it was a dead aio. took it to Microcenter and paid the bench to install a Thermalright Dual Tower

on work's tab, it's fine

and a somewhat overpriced tech bench bill is way better than downtime shipping a tower across the country twice

[frosty prism]

yup

[frank zealot]

I do, however, blame them for the angle of this PCIE Connector

[frosty prism]

i have questions

[frank zealot]

what questions

[steel stream]

i may have answers

[frank zealot]

the fan's not on the front cuz of the PCIE Cable

[frosty prism]

only 1 8pin for a massive 3 fan card
why is the 8 pin so bent and why even is the gpu sideways

[frosty prism]

that i got

[frank zealot]

it's a 4070

[steel stream]

4070 windforce

it's the same one I have

[frosty prism]

cooler that can cool like a 5080 on a 4070 8 pin is fun

[steel stream]

it's not a big 3 fan card tbh

[frank zealot]

I mean, she doesn't game.

[steel stream]

it's only like 260mm in length

[frosty prism]

look how tall it is

[frank zealot]

so I'm not too worried about cooling, when I got it, it was one of the few available cards that wasn't heinously scalped

[steel stream]

it is teeny tiny

[frank zealot]

note: it is bumped back a little due to the vertical mount,
and fan 3 starts before the atx board ends. it's not a huge card

[steel stream]

it is teeny tiny man

[frosty prism]

sad no offical single fan 4070

[turbid locust]

I go hard in the mf paint

[steel stream]

this you?

[turbid locust]

perchance

[frank zealot]

wonder how that's gonna last when MS gets rid of kernel access in windows?

[slim solstice]

Atleast we know where the people whose jobs are taken up by ai is going to go.

[edgy laurel]

people who use the flash and take pictures with the side glass on...

[queen cave]

Ok what’s better 5070 or 4080 super?

[hoary hatch]

4080 super is generally better for gaming; however these cards are typically at different price points

[queen cave]

Good that’s what I was thinking

[edgy laurel]

ya, not comparable cards

[frank zealot]

5070:
less power, newer core, mfg and updated dlss support

4080:
Better overall render performance

[green marsh]

[frank zealot]

do reviews not exist?

hmmmm, should I jump on this?

[steel stream]

I cast stick drift

[edgy laurel]

And they've been here long enough to know to find out such basic information

[frank zealot]

meh, I cast:

AND:
I should be getting my Wii U Hall Effect sticks today and should be trying to solder them sooner or later

[leaden dawn]

hell I mightve. Got a V1 for like $150 ($200?) a year or 2 ago.

[edgy laurel]

Reading through this complicated setup and my eyes are glazing over. https://www.reddit.com/r/audiophile/comments/1mmnpsl/completed_threeband_speaker_setup/

My favorite excerpt

Once that was done, I set my crossovers (all are configured in the miniDSPs as 30dB/Octave Butterworth high- or low-pass filters) at 135Hz between

[frank zealot]

now that the 2 is out, the 1 on the used market is a fair bit cheaper

anyone got experience / knowledge on this soldering station?
https://www.amazon.com/X-Tronics-3060-PRO-Display-Soldering-Calibration/dp/B086DTV28M

@brave panther another weird Icybox product for data hoarders 😄 https://icybox.de/product/archive/IB-3810-C31 . 10x 3.5" on USB 10gbps

[frank zealot]

not that weird, just a DAS

but that's a chonker of a DAS

[green marsh]

well weird in terms of when have you seen a 10 bay USB DAS

[young void]

[brave panther]

Not bad
I imagine it is actually a usb hub and a bunch of usb to sata converters on the inside

[green marsh]

more like single USB to 2x SATA and then two 1x SATA to 5x SATA port multipliers

[merry stirrup]

likely

less money on controllers

[brave panther]

I am printing custom hdd trays atm
I have added compatibility with 2.5 inch drives to the LFF hp G8-10 caddy

[merry stirrup]

2x sata is already more bandwidth than its usb interface can handle

[brave panther]

Yes but hdd

[green marsh]

😄

[arctic bronze]

Bruh

[green marsh]

there is even worse, one with RAID

[topaz veldt]

[frigid haven]

noo not raid

[brave panther]

Wtf

[green marsh]

"The adapter enclosure is equipped with hardware RAID to provide improved performance and data redundancy. The enclosure supports both RAID 0 and RAID 1 as well as Spanning, and JBOD, and lets you choose your preferred backup mode by simply adjusting the RAID setting switch."

https://www.startech.com/en-eu/hdd/35sat225s3r

Wow, raid 1 and 0

[green marsh]

ASM1092R

[brave panther]

It is also equipped to bake hdds

it should be torx

idk much about screws

on fan/rad screws?

those need very very little torque

oh no thats just dumb

[wraith steeple]

GGF Events has Stove beat in the PC Chassis department.

[pure garnet]

i mean do you really need a review when your eyes can see if it has airflow

[hollow hull]

You can guess how it'll perform based on how big the case is and what kind of intake exhaust options they have

[merry stirrup]

weird

[merry stirrup]

not doing th enew one?

[frosty prism]

i have yet to need to

[merry stirrup]

start ms-cxh:localonly

[frosty prism]

OOBE has always worked

[merry stirrup]

its faster to type though just sayin

maybe

[frosty prism]

its from the complete start

welp i can live with it

[merry stirrup]

nuhuh

[frosty prism]

how do i reboot from cmd

[merry stirrup]

shutdown /r /t 0

[frosty prism]

ty

[merry stirrup]

you dont have to do /t 0 but it makes it instant

[frosty prism]

yea it aint instant without it

[heavy mantle]

How is ntc going btw?

[frosty prism]

ntc?

[heavy mantle]

The vram compression thingy

[frank zealot]

incoming video title change:

[heavy mantle]

Neural something something

[frank zealot]

NPU ?

[frosty prism]

wat

[heavy mantle]

Ohh neural texture compression

That

[steel stream]

still really hasn't been implemented

[heavy mantle]

The thingy in early stages tho

[frank zealot]

wait for it to actually be rolled out

[steel stream]

I think Alan Wake 2 has it

[heavy mantle]

Tho would that be rolled out for ig newer cards or also for older ones?

[steel stream]

afaik it's only on 50 series?

[heavy mantle]

Ahh

[edgy laurel]

https://youtu.be/3jJG5xl93mg

[steel stream]

oh wait might be 40 series too

[heavy mantle]

would you think it would be possible to implement that into older 40,30,20 or even 10 series?

Oh then nvm got it

[merry stirrup]

is this really scrapyrad wars

[heavy mantle]

Whoa

So ig it would be somewhat possible to implement into older cards but its faster and more efficient on 50 and 40 series then

[brisk jolt]

what a great way to throw even more random shit into the vram usage

[merry stirrup]

oh i just busted

[steel stream]

i think it helps with VRAM usage

[merry stirrup]

is it only audio gear or what

ill watch it nvm 🙏

[frosty prism]

i managed to get it to go in english somehow

[steel stream]

nah I think it's full setup with home theater?

[pure garnet]

i highly doubt that tech is being implemented anytime during the 10 series useful life span

[heavy mantle]

Ohh

Then wbu 20 series??

[steel stream]

perhaps

it is a DLSS card

[pure garnet]

it's just kinda a paper rn so your guess is as good as anybodies

but i wouldn't expect to see it in games for several years or longer

[frosty prism]

Ok maybe 8GB was not the best

[heavy mantle]

So by then 20 series would’ve been out of support or what

[shell void]

the hp omen qd oled monitor design is kinda interesting

the two tone white is neat

[steel stream]

probs

[shell void]

i hated it at first but it’s grown on me a lil

[steel stream]

rear IO is also baller

[pure garnet]

did you drop your phone mid photo

[shell void]

yeah it has 140w usb c power delivery apparently

[merry stirrup]

it sucks, install 11 iotltsc

[frosty prism]

reflective screen

[pure garnet]

real

that's what im putting back on this pc

[frosty prism]

bios date of 2015

[shell void]

install 11 iot enterprise non ltsc so you can update to 25H2 when that launches soon

[steel stream]

michael I think S90D suffers from power supply issue

[shell void]

i think it suffers from multiple issues brother akn

[steel stream]

yeah

[shell void]

did woot support reply to you?

[steel stream]

yeahhhhhhh

[steel stream]

naah not yet

[frosty prism]

its miles better then my m3

[steel stream]

they say wait 24-48 hrs

[pure garnet]

does that add anything of use

[merry stirrup]

brother what happened

[shell void]

idk what it adds but there’s no bloat difference between ltsc and not

ltsc just gets locked out feature updates in exchange for a longer security update cycle

[steel stream]

idk mna

[pure garnet]

im 15 minutes deep into the usb flash already

[merry stirrup]

its joever

[frosty prism]

speakers are REALLY good

[merry stirrup]

yeah that was one of my favs of it

front facing speakers absolutely blastin

[frosty prism]

i think i might do surface at home and 2 in 1 for school

the surface bat has a wear level of 40%

[merry stirrup]

OOOF

[frank zealot]

40%? that's rough

[frosty prism]

at least its under half

[pure garnet]

my macbook stopped booting at like 60% health

[frank zealot]

I'd be youtubing "how to replace battery" before doing anything portable with it

[frosty prism]

its just 40%?

[pure garnet]

wdym it's just 40%

[merry stirrup]

my device

[pure garnet]

that's almost half of the battery

[frank zealot]

at 80% most batteries are at 50% of their original power lifetime when running

[frosty prism]

shit lasts like 15hrs new or smn, so should still be at least 5hrs

anyways its a surface

[merry stirrup]

15 hours is optimistic

i get 4-6

[frosty prism]

only local video playback

[pure garnet]

it's gonna last like 45 minutes with the cooked battery

[frosty prism]

yours is old as balls

[merry stirrup]

same batt size

[frosty prism]

wat

[frosty prism]

yours is older

[merry stirrup]

and in better condition, whats your point

[frosty prism]

sad

[merry stirrup]

i have less than 200 cycles on mine

[frank zealot]

you're not getting 5 hours on that battery, unless it's "Min brightness, little to no load, and basically doing nothing"

[edgy laurel]

floppa, did you ever end up looking at the hours on that TV?

[merry stirrup]

cant it seems

also seems like i shoulda done more research

[frank zealot]

is it a samsung tv?

[edgy laurel]

oh?

[pure garnet]

another 20 minute windows flash has hit the msi included flash drive

[merry stirrup]

apparently those b7's have a LUT table defect

[pure garnet]

i really need to buy another drive this one is awful

[merry stirrup]

which is...apparent...

it works for now but im still looking on fbm

[edgy laurel]

remember, $100

[merry stirrup]

yeah, 100$ im not mad at all

the table its on is worth half of that

[edgy laurel]

whats wrong with it?

like, in practice

other than the burn in you knew about

[merry stirrup]

id say 5/6th (kinda like 21:9 size on it) of it in a rectangle has way different colors

[edgy laurel]

oh, well damn

[merry stirrup]

i just dont think it could be burnin and while researching i found that these had a ddefect

itsd not terrible especially since it is most of the screen

[edgy laurel]

did you end up doing a factory reset?

[merry stirrup]

i tried, didnt do anything but yes

spammed pixel refresh (allegedly makes the lut table thing worse idk)

[edgy laurel]

hmm

[merry stirrup]

doesnt look any different

[wraith steeple]

[edgy laurel]

so it wasn't entirely too good to be true

[merry stirrup]

i can also tell bro watched a lot of CBS

but thats it otherwise it works fine

[edgy laurel]

new it was pretty good

[merry stirrup]

ill get another one this one will do for a couple months maybe

another oled at some point yes yes

maybe a 55 cause 65 is just a little too big

[edgy laurel]

really?

[merry stirrup]

for the setting its in, yes

[wraith steeple]

[merry stirrup]

its not a living room tv, its a chill about 6 ft away from it and chill with 6-8 people blitzed

i wont not buy another 65 if the opportunity arises

but if a 55 comes up thats oled and a good deal i wont say no

[merry stirrup]

and meanwhile it has an xbox one og hooked up to it

[edgy laurel]

wonder why you can't see the hours

[merry stirrup]

cause idk how to use the LG remote

i cant open the smart apps menu with the remote so i just turned the tv off and on while doing my testing to pull that menu up

[merry stirrup]

i looked where google said it would be and it wasnt there/no similar option

no info section in settings

[edgy laurel]

for me under the help section there is a TV information

[merry stirrup]

i will look when im home

i was looking in the "oled panel settings" menu

[edgy laurel]

I think for you its in General > About this TV

[merry stirrup]

okie i'll check when im home

i have so much hardware to get rid of

5 extra gpus

2 am4 setups

a bazillion m.2 drives
