storyline is simply too good

[brisk jolt]

[devout ridge]

a vast majority of the launch problems have been solved

[odd mantle]

💀

[brisk jolt]

I put him in his place

[wise bear]

[brisk jolt]

guilty's shots are absolute cinema

[wise bear]

out of everyone I never wouldve expected michael to say that

[fringe vigil]

are you phillipino

[odd mantle]

yes

no im thai

[fringe vigil]

thai always have blow out tapers

and textured fringe

[wise bear]

put your ground textures to low
preload to roughly 30k
visibility to high

I literally got 64gb just for dcs

also use dlss

[fringe vigil]

wirtz

[shell void]

do you think i’m a boomer

[fringe vigil]

Micheal what cut u have

[brisk jolt]

no you just dont seem the type to

[shell void]

[fringe vigil]

So bald?

[shell void]

i buzzed my hair last winter and i’ve been growing it out since then

[fringe vigil]

Buzz only for certain people

[shell void]

yeah i dont look good with it

i like my hair longer

[fringe vigil]

Longer better

[granite dirge]

I'm growing my hair out to get a psychobilly quiff with little vampy goth bang strands

[brisk jolt]

it was not worth it

im chopped as hell

[wispy sequoia]

Hi. Would it be ok to recommend a lesser known PSU that is rated C-tier just like the MAG A-BNs? The a650bn is $75 but the Raidmax Conra RX-850AED is $60 and is fully modular

[frosty prism]

you mean IED

[wispy sequoia]

?

Improvised Explosive Device?

[frosty prism]

there you got it

i think this was the PSU in a pc that died yesterday

[wispy sequoia]

Huh. Is there a source? Got personal stakes in this

[frosty prism]

just buy a a650bn

[brisk jolt]

what about AED

[frosty prism]

wait what country

[brisk jolt]

Active Explosive Device (Gigabyte PSU)

[wispy sequoia]

I already have the 750 watt version

It was $40

It’s been fine. Had 2 power outages in the middle of gaming too.

[frosty prism]

so uh what

[wispy sequoia]

I said is it ok to recommend

[frosty prism]

what did i call the PSU

[wispy sequoia]

There’s a bunch of older raidmax cobras that are rated lower than C but the new ones are called “safe” by the tierlist

[wispy sequoia]

Ok then

Just curious tho you said one died yesterday what’s that all about

[molten iron]

I’m getting my new AMD motherboard installed and updated before reinstalling windows

And right after I initiated the BIOS update. It turned off

My heart stopped lol. It restarted and continued the update

I was like “SHIT”

Thought the motherboard bricked itself for a moment

[frosty prism]

no its updating

[devout ridge]

any major firmware update commonly will restart the machine

be it bios, GPU drivers, etc

as long as the machine doesn't lose power somewhere during it you're almost always fine

[molten iron]

Yeah but I still pooped my pants

[granite dirge]

You don't need to tell us that you need depends.

[molten iron]

Do I put PBO to enabled? Or leave as auto?

[edgy laurel]

make sure windows is stable and working before turning that on, along with XMP/EXPO

[granite dirge]

How goes the weekend spark?

[molten iron]

Ok

[gentle urchin]

Would been so much simpler if Intel just named their version of EXPO the same as AMDs but nooo, they just had to use their own name version "XMP". 😮‍💨

[edgy laurel]

huh

The XMP licensed by Intel thats been around since the DDR3 days i believe?

[gentle urchin]

[brisk jolt]

XMP was indeed licensed during ddr3

EXPO was only introduced with ddr4 and it wasnt that mainstream till current ddr5

[edgy laurel]

lets not forget AMD AMP

[fresh grotto]

what budget gpu would you guys recommend? use case is light gaming, i was looking at the 9060xt but i was wondering if there are better?

[brisk jolt]

5090

[fresh grotto]

it would get good frames but i rather not sell my leg for it 🤣

[brisk jolt]

You did know specify your needs nor budget in the first place

Your “budget” and “light gaming” is vague

[fresh grotto]

around 400-500 euro, belgium id say max

[brisk jolt]

aka im just gonna tell you 9060xt 16gb and call it a day

[frosty prism]

DOCP is just not a thing i guess

[brisk jolt]

I mean the topic was just on EXPO and XMP and older stuff isnt my forte at all

[frosty prism]

EXPO is the XMP profile some manufacturers added for amd hardware

[fervent scaffold]

They never made a 4060 12gb/16gb right? Only came in 8gb models?

[devout ridge]

there's 8gb and 16gb versions

[shell void]

4060 is only 8GB but there is a 4060Ti 16GB

[frosty prism]

8

4060 ti is 8 AND 16

[fervent scaffold]

Okay thanks, I didnt know they made a 16gb ti model

Wow they are overpriced

Definitely telling him to stick to a 9060xt 16gb lol

[brisk jolt]

his usecase has no need for nvidia features anyway

[molten iron]

Ok, problem:

one side of the GPU isn’t fully inserted, I cannot go any further. I don’t know what is going on, my previous motherboard was able to get the GPU plugged in with the same case…

What do I do?

[fervent scaffold]

Definitely not lol

[frosty prism]

what

[frosty prism]

what are you talking about

[molten iron]

One side locked the GPU bracket thing, the other side is lifted a bit

[fervent scaffold]

Hit with hammer

[frosty prism]

where?

i only see black no gold

[frosty prism]

yea no gold

its in

[devout ridge]

release the lock and reinsert it

[molten iron]

I did.

[frosty prism]

also pleas screw it in

[fervent scaffold]

Are you hitting your case on the scew side

[devout ridge]

screwing it in also will most likely fix it

[molten iron]

Yes.

[fervent scaffold]

Screw*

[frosty prism]

fix what

[frosty prism]

its inserted

[frosty prism]

push it a bit

[molten iron]

Even though it’s not fully plugged in one one side? It’s lopsided

[frosty prism]

again its plugged in

im not sure what you mean when you claim its not in

[molten iron]

Okay, I trust you. I want to make sure I don’t fuck up my 4090

[devout ridge]

there's electrical contact, anything further is a cosmetic thing

[frosty prism]

this cant do that

the connector on it can tho

[devout ridge]

you should worry about the power connector not the pcie connector

[frosty prism]

bad pcie contact aint gonna do more than give you some strange issues at worst while that connector can almost light on fire

[molten iron]

I don’t want crashes or lags

[frosty prism]

"so why did you go nvidia"

-from a guy who has had to help people with GTX cards black screening

[molten iron]

I already had the 4090 for a year

[frosty prism]

have you been building that pc for 4 days

[molten iron]

No

Just bought the parts Friday. Had my last day with my 12700k yesterday. Building it today

Gonna immediately play helldivers lol

[frosty prism]

why did you fuck with the cooler 4 days ago

[molten iron]

What

Oh. I didn’t mess with it.

I was gathering information so I don’t waste time

[frosty prism]

o, you were just checking the mounting hardware

anyways as long as something looks like its fully seated in a pc it is

[fringe vigil]

Blast

[molten iron]

Yes

[frosty prism]

no

[wise bear]

gotta

[fringe vigil]

What yo bish ass doing here today

[edgy laurel]

@molten iron try not to take offence, jorj has no filter

[fringe vigil]

jk but blast, I still didn’t buy subnautica lol

I will buy now if it’s still 6 dollars

[fervent scaffold]

L

[fringe vigil]

We’re homies chill

[fervent scaffold]

Crackhead prices out here

[wise bear]

oh wait is blast one of the shawties that you keep talking about?

[fringe vigil]

he’s a guy, I only talk to girls bro

[wise bear]

You seem to talk to a lot of guys here though

[brisk jolt]

bro folded under 0 pressure ❌
bro got folded with 0 pressure ✅

[molten iron]

I figured that when he asked us if $6 for Subnautica is something he should consider

Lessgoooo

[wraith steeple]

HOLY SHIT!!! Roman has joined our MORA server

I shouldve expected a flashbang bruh

[molten iron]

Lmao

[cerulean cosmos]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/176300484471 what is this even for?

[shell void]

white strix 4090 is pretty

[wraith steeple]

It's actually him! YOOOOOOOO I'm wheezing right now

[fringe vigil]

My pc is better than yours gang

[steel stream]

that's fucking awesome lol

[cerulean cosmos]

it seems like it broadcasts the microphone over fm somehow?

[fervent scaffold]

That is an understatement

[edgy laurel]

a base unit for a wireless microphone system

[floral kiln]

Hmmm

[edgy laurel]

exactly as the description says

[floral kiln]

4000 series is overpriced ngl

[brisk jolt]

i dont doubt it even the slightest

[molten iron]

Woke up at 5am to go to the gym, was emailed immediately by ASUS saying their 4090 was available. I purchased the $2k card at 5am and it’s still retaining its value

[cerulean cosmos]

huh... seems very short distance

[brittle trellis]

A wireless microphone that is older than everyone here

[brisk jolt]

and when was ts lmao

[molten iron]

Damn motherboard didn’t come with any drivers, and windows can’t detect any of the drivers I have on my usb. Great. Gonna create a temporary local user and then use my Microsoft account lol

[brisk jolt]

if its 2025 then get middle fingered lol

[fringe vigil]

Im tryna be one of breezy dancers

[molten iron]

Uhhh. A year ago? More?

Maybe 2

[fringe vigil]

Blast do you own a guild on RuneScape

[brisk jolt]

im gonna go sleep

fuckass assessment later

[cerulean cosmos]

how bad do you think it would sound

[brittle trellis]

It probably doesn't even work anymore

[ionic night]

Just built mine i need to get a nzxt rgb controller should be here next week

[wise bear]

bet you it just runs on aa batts

[brittle trellis]

The transmitter? Yeah, of course

[frosty prism]

signal rgb

[edgy laurel]

https://youtu.be/_GTEdRz3DHs

[frosty prism]

that AIO costs more than the gpu

[ionic night]

@frosty prism what

[wraith steeple]

Our first e-celeberty too! If we get JR23 (Joe Robey) from Thermal Grizzly and Markus from Watercool GmbH here too, it's over! We would be unstoppable

[frosty prism]

rgb control software

[wise bear]

e-celebrity

[brittle trellis]

Imagine buying an aio with RGB and still having to buy a controller for the RGB

Why do people still consider NZXT garbage

[ionic night]

I know but im waiting on my nzxt rgb controller for my 3 fans on the front

[molten iron]

I love Lian Li Trinity series. Change my mind

[frosty prism]

what

[brittle trellis]

Didn't ask

[frosty prism]

is your motherboard 6 years old??

[cerulean cosmos]

sounds pretty good

[ionic night]

They need a controller

[frosty prism]

no you plug the argb header into the motherboard??

[ionic night]

I did and the other part just pops off when I plug the rgb one in

[frosty prism]

what??

[frosty prism]

it does not pop off

[wraith steeple]

TBF for the PC sphere, I'm not wrong though

[fringe vigil]

Why USA getting the best songs, best dances for breezy bowl it’s acc annoying me

[ionic night]

It does it doesn't sit snug on the pins it will slide right off the fans are going no problem but that 3 pin one will not stay connected

[molten iron]

Dammit. I’m trying to sign into windows but it is asking me for my Microsoft password.

I have passwordless account. Shit.

[frosty prism]

it will

at least if you plug it in right

[ionic night]

I did im telling you

I've been building pc for a while it doesn't stay

[brittle trellis]

Skill issue

[wise bear]

is the 3-pin connector just like, loose/wobbly on the pins when it's seated?

[ionic night]

Yes

And slides off

[wise bear]

yeah it's a fucky connector

not user error

[ionic night]

Thank you

[cerulean cosmos]

imma look for other weird tech

[wise bear]

Ooh, i got one for you to find

the old ddr2/3 ram storage cards that worked over pcie

[molten iron]

Okay, so I’m trying to sign into Windows with my Microsoft account, but it popped open this page that said I needed to enter my current windows password.

I didn’t have one, it’s a passwordless account.

So I went into my Microsoft account, made a temporary password and turned off passwordless.

Tried to put it in, but, I got this

Any help?

[cerulean cosmos]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/396883822396

[cerulean cosmos]

[cerulean cosmos]

soundbalster midi

[wise bear]

god I love the old 5.25 accessories

[edgy laurel]

Ok so back up. This boot drive you pulled from a previous PC with all the normal security features enabled, yes? What sort of account, local or MS?

If MS, how did you make it "passwordless"?

[wise bear]

You can do "passwordless" i.e. w/ an authenticator app

[molten iron]

Went to Microsoft’s website, turned on passwordless account so it auto notifies me of all login attempts.

[edgy laurel]

What happens when you boot up the PC normally with this sort of setup? Not the new PC, the old one?

[molten iron]

No. New storage device. 9100 pro from Samsung. I couldn’t get the drivers installed during windows setup so I created a local user temporarily.

[wise bear]

dude you gotta use a password, connect an auth app, then go "passwordless". Use that password to log into windows and adjust settings from there

[edgy laurel]

New install of Windows?

[molten iron]

Yes

I called the account temporary and I would prefer if my Microsoft account had its own name on my computer lol.

[topaz veldt]

I'll check it out - just got back from visiting hospital 😔

[cerulean cosmos]

says its a boot card

[edgy laurel]

😔 hope there is some good news dude

[molten iron]

If I reinstall windows, will my drivers remain?

[edgy laurel]

No

but like.. whats the big deal.

[molten iron]

Damn. I’m signed into my Microsoft account, but my name on the computer is still Setup

[wise bear]

nah nah these were cards that slotted full dimms & used a battery to retain data- the whole card was seen as a storage device

[molten iron]

Normally I’m able to get signed into Microsoft during Windows Setup, since there is some sort of wireless driver with the previous motherboards I had

[topaz veldt]

its a rough one bud

[wise bear]

Who broke their limb(s)

[wraith steeple]

5nail's mother isn't doing so good

[wise bear]

oh :(

[cerulean cosmos]

oh no yea i was thinking that i just found that thing while searching

[wise bear]

5nail I'm sorry bud, I know exactly how hard it is.

[cerulean cosmos]

what happened?

[wise bear]

Dunno, but if it's involving someone's mom & a hospital it ain't good

[wraith steeple]

cancer

[cerulean cosmos]

ah

my condolence's

[topaz veldt]

thanks

its kind of a lightning striking twice thing... same cancer that took my wifes mom

considered a rare cancer, no less

[wise bear]

Genetics are weird

[topaz veldt]

well... its two separate moms

my mom and my wifes mom

[wise bear]

No shit

[topaz veldt]

its more a statistical wtf

but i digress

[molten iron]

Imma make another local user with a better name, sign into my Microsoft there. Delete the account called “Setup”

Never had this problem lol

[topaz veldt]

whats the problem

[cerulean cosmos]

this looks nice

[topaz veldt]

I have dozens of these

[cerulean cosmos]

worth it?

[topaz veldt]

for what I do, yeah - for normies? not sure

[cerulean cosmos]

so yeah i would say

[topaz veldt]

i use them to ship thousands of dimms

[wise bear]

I watched my mom go from liver failure last year- I can fully empathize w/ you dude

[topaz veldt]

yeah this similar - pancreatic, has tie ins with that disease also

[wise bear]

[topaz veldt]

thanks bro

[wise bear]

I'm sure that you've got plenty of folks to talk to about this but I'll throw my hat in the ring as well

[cerulean cosmos]

what is ecc udimm ram?

[topaz veldt]

so I guess I am home now anyway - was going to stay down shore

[devout ridge]

ECC = error correction code

[cerulean cosmos]

so kinda like a preventive ram stick that helps prevent errors while flashing?

[topaz veldt]

um

[devout ridge]

ECC is a technology added onto your standard DIMMs

[topaz veldt]

don't be stupid

[devout ridge]

they help detect and prevent bit flips

[cerulean cosmos]

oh

[wise bear]

no ecc is more of an extra ram chip on each stick kinda like for parity, like how a raid array works

[languid nimbus]

That happened trust me

[cerulean cosmos]

ohhhhhh

[languid nimbus]

I was the flower

[wise bear]

can you please just keep the stupid shit to tc1

[cerulean cosmos]

is the tech used anymore?

[topaz veldt]

You're the same one who is trying to build a PC for their birthday right/

[devout ridge]

Yes

[wise bear]

YES lmao

[devout ridge]

ECC is standard in the server space

[topaz veldt]

So like.. you can't even legally vote....

So please just f all the way back to TC1 with your stupid shit

[languid nimbus]

Yep

[random flame]

. . . . .
Yeah, this does not belong here, even in this server.

[languid nimbus]

Alright I'm just checking in

[languid nimbus]

Alr I'm sorry Imma delete it

[wise bear]

There is no memes channel in this server

[cerulean cosmos]

ah that was my second thought bc i dont hear about it so i was thinking it might just be included.

[steel stream]

damn it I looked away for 2 seconds

[wise bear]

go put your edgy shit in your friend server

[devout ridge]

basically any semi proper server you build would have ECC

[topaz veldt]

ask mom if she can get you some trump/putin party decorations for your birthday party

[languid nimbus]

Not really edgy but cool

[topaz veldt]

sorry im in a mood lol

it's a ram-based ssd

there's a sata port you run a cable to and to your motherboard

I’ve seen worse. Film lights are brighter than this.

[devout ridge]

film lights are also more spread out

[spiral quarry]

Being accidentally flashbanged by the lighting team isn’t fun

[spiral quarry]

Yea further out but if you’re close. Pretty much me 90% of the time when I am gaffer.

[fervent scaffold]

Is it worth going from a 1440p ips to 1440p oled or should I shoot for 4k oled like I planned

[woven osprey]

So my pigtail PCIe melted on the PSU end when it was connected to my MSI RTX 3080 Ventus (not OC’d).
Repair bloke claimed it was due to a poor connection, it wasn’t fully in the PSU end.

Supplied a new cable but there’s damage on two pins on the PSU where it melted.
I can use a different PCIe slot for the GPU, but this’ll also be with pigtails.

• Is the PSU a hazard?
• Pigtails that bad?
• If I need to replace the PSU, I’m upgrading my PSU and GPU at the same time.

[spiral quarry]

Worse incident I had on set was a c-stand coming down on my finger. The time I wasn’t wearing gloves.

[woven osprey]

It looks like this on the PSU end

[devout ridge]

I work in theatrical lighting, some lights get really bright

I've had lights that state you can't have anything within like 5ft of the beam due to heating

haha warshipped

[frosty prism]

DI HE GIVE YOU ANOTHER CABLE????
nobody is insane enough to do that

[woven osprey]

Yes, he asked for another pigtail cable

[spiral quarry]

These old school lights burn too lol

Friend of mines got them on a deal

[devout ridge]

incandescents?

[frosty prism]

[spiral quarry]

Good old tungesten 2k

[devout ridge]

I'm used to working with mostly LEDs

mostly Source 4 spots and PARs, though i've used some high end systems moving lights as well

("high end systems" is the brand, horrible name ik)

[cerulean cosmos]

yummy spaghetti

[spiral quarry]

Worked with those too, I know my colleges tv studio still had some old Arri L7s with tungstens in them.

But we’ve moved to fully LED lights

[devout ridge]

Incandescent gets so hot so fast

it's also wild when you turn them off how they naturally ramp down as the filament cools

We do have some incandescent pars and spots in another room for learning, and it'll heat the room up fast

[frosty prism]

Yep I’ve always told people that’s the last thing to take down but some don’t listen so I’ve dealt with burn incidents.

[devout ridge]

Yeah you gotta turn off incandescent lights and let em cool down for a bit before handling

i've nearly burned myself on the heatsink when i forgot that

[frosty prism]

almost like making light is better than making heat

https://www.ebay.com/itm/204869126076? THIS has got to be older than any one here

its telex

[spiral quarry]

Albeit some denied any medical attention sooo I made it clear it’s their liability

[devout ridge]

Some people are too stubborn for their own good

[frosty prism]

this one is hard to get as a European

[spiral quarry]

An actor denied it also after spraining her middle finger doing a stunt for a scene. Actually wasn’t bad.

Would post the video but ahh excessive cursing lol.

[devout ridge]

We fortunately don't deal with stunts like that in the productions we do, but the actors are quite disinclined to get assistance with their mics when it hurts

i think we had an actor bleeding behind their ear from their mic cause they didn't say anything about it poking into them

[woven osprey]

What’s the verdict on this combination?

[cerulean cosmos]

litearaly THE communications company at least for the us, the invented the first noise canceling headphones

[frosty prism]

yea

[vestal granite]

when was it released

[cerulean cosmos]

anywhere from 1960 to 1980

[frosty prism]

1060?

[vestal granite]

oh there are people older than that here

[cerulean cosmos]

no lol

[vestal granite]

snail i think is 1970s

whats that like 90?

[woven osprey]

Will a HX1200i fit in my case?
I have a Corsair iCUE 4000D RGB Airflow TG bk ATX

[frosty prism]

ys

[frosty prism]

does you not have de pcpartpicker

[vestal granite]

no they used an alternate

[molten iron]

Thank you to everyone who has helped me with giving information. I’m going to run a cinebench test on my 9800x3d. Anyone have a link to it? I’ll use it and tell you guys what score I get. Is there a way to test my GPU too?

[frosty prism]

video games

[molten iron]

lol ok

Helldivers 2 stress test

[cerulean cosmos]

should i send a offer for it?

[vestal granite]

honestly yeah itd be cool to have

im sure it still works or if it doesnt then itd be probably straightforward to get it working

which would be neat

it would be very funny to use that thing's microphone in voip in a shooter game

[molten iron]

@edgy laurel hey, so if my computer boots into windows just fine and I’m installing my apps again, do I turn on PBO by changing it to enabled?

[woven osprey]

Exceeds recommended length according to PC particles

[frosty prism]

yes

[edgy laurel]

yes

[woven osprey]

I’m doing this all on mobile so it’s a pain in the ass

[frosty prism]

send pcpartpicker

[woven osprey]

Would you personally settle for a 1200 or 1000?

[frosty prism]

get a laptop

[frosty prism]

both would be more than fine

[woven osprey]

HX1000 seems to be smaller and fits recommended for the case

[frosty prism]

can you send the pcpartpicker link

[woven osprey]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MMQpwY

[frosty prism]

no its fine

[molten iron]

Ok sweet

[shell void]

1 out of your 26 APs?

[topaz veldt]

only 2 going in

[shell void]

nice

[topaz veldt]

I had two separate AP sets, one for IOT because 2.4 GHz vs 5GHz/6GHz was an issue

so now I am going down to fewer and just new U7 Pros

[shell void]

it peeves me when i see people install a half dozen APs in their house that isnt even very big

[topaz veldt]

nah I have 3

like, I will have 3

well 3 and an outdoor one out at the shed

[shell void]

gotta have gigabit in the shed

[topaz veldt]

10 gbps lol

[shell void]

glorious

[topaz veldt]

its 10 gbps fiber single mode out to a PoE switch for the AP

[turbid locust]

Guys… my 5090 will fit in my A3…

I’m switching to an ATX board soon so I’m not swapping but… once Zen 6 comes…

[woven osprey]

So we’re certain that the HX1200i will fit in the Corsair 4000D case?

I don’t want to buy a PSU that doesn’t fit any mounting points or blows air against the case

[frosty prism]

o jesus that is a old PSU

wait

[frosty prism]

Dimensions
150mm x 86mm x 180mm

so 2cm more

on the 1.2KW psu

[woven osprey]

According to the website from Corsair, you have 220mm if you remove the HDD holder

[frosty prism]

aint it already gone?

[woven osprey]

No, I can remove it though if I transfer files from my HDD to an SSD

[frosty prism]

HDD in a pc that will be getting a 5090

[woven osprey]

Ill be removing it, its just to store important files like photographs

[turbid locust]

Meta

[woven osprey]

I also have 2 M.2 SSD’s in it totalling to 6TB

[frosty prism]

im only on a XTX and have 14TB of NAS storage

[topaz veldt]

damn

[woven osprey]

Is 20mm enough to work with to do the cables?

[frosty prism]

yea

[woven osprey]

It has been done

My wallet hurts and my soul a little too but at least I’ll be sure my PSU won’t catch fire and burn my system and home down.

[broken ocean]

anyone had it where an AIO works fine, but after a reboot CPU temps just sore (bios), another reboot its working fine... surely a dodgy aio?

[devout ridge]

spend the money now so you don't have to buy a new house

[regal wigeon]

How do you enable secure boot for the bf6 beta? I’ve heard a lot of people have been bricking their pcs while doing it

[devout ridge]

only a problem if you have bitlocker enabled

[broken ocean]

annoyingly, i had to do a fresh windwos install

[edgy laurel]

no ones been bricking their PC's, just don't know how to recongize whats actually happening

[frosty prism]

nope you can manage to brick it

[regal wigeon]

What have they been doing wrong?

[frosty prism]

some chap here a long while ago managed to do it

[edgy laurel]

disabling CSM to enabled SecureBoot and wondering why their PC no longer boots

[frosty prism]

no

not the issue just straight up it would not boot at all even cmos clean and such

it even happened to me

[edgy laurel]

That may be true for you, but thats now happening to waves of people now

[frosty prism]

yeeaa true some people just cannot move to windows 11

[edgy laurel]

CSM on MBR systems are the biggest problem.

[frosty prism]

i hate people

i got a HD 60 pro and wanna slap it in a LP pc buuuut yeeeaa

did not get that LP bracket and yup this is the 2nd time i spent over 1hr looking for a LP bracket 3D model

[turbid locust]

I bought an HD60 Pro off ebay and it has never shown any signs of life lmao

I got a refund but it's just been living in a drawer since lmao

[frosty prism]

do you have the LP bracket for it

[turbid locust]

Nah full height

[frosty prism]

welp ok i might also rather slap down a desktop under here and do full size

[devout ridge]

goddamn linux ISOs download fast

i'm basically at line speed for this download

[frosty prism]

yea linux ISOs are fast, and most times max speed on private trackers

[devout ridge]

i gave up on truenas for my folding at home server, and i'm just using ubuntu desktop

containers are confusing

[frosty prism]

yea

[devout ridge]

it's not something i need to frequently access anyways

it should just be setup, and forget

for now it'll just be CPU folding, but soon i'll get an A4000

[frosty prism]

you just gave me the idea of how i will be heating up my home in the winter

[devout ridge]

about half the performance of folding on my 4080S, but soon i can have multiple

[frosty prism]

if mining becomes kinda worth it possible i might just do that tho

making breakfast for free each day just for heating my home would be nice

[devout ridge]

mining isn't even worth the power draw for me

[frosty prism]

i do not pay for power :3

[devout ridge]

and rn i'm paying to cool my house, so the waste heat isn't beneficial

[frosty prism]

also god i love being 18 now

[devout ridge]

i might need that UPS expansion soon

[turbid locust]

enjoy it while it lasts...

[frosty prism]

right before i became 18 nicehash became KYC only

[devout ridge]

i wonder what the PPD on an A4000 will be

on my 4080S i average about 10m

[turbid locust]

last time I folded I was using a 2060S, 6700XT, and 1080

[devout ridge]

I've been using my desktop 7800x3d and 4080S overnight and it's been going quite well

i've been trying to use this r630 to fold for a while now but containers confuse tf out of me

[turbid locust]

I wonder what my PPD would be on 14900K + 5090 + 5070Ti lol

[devout ridge]

one way to find out

[turbid locust]

@frosty prism Is mining actually worth doing if you pay for power lol

Also last time I folded I was not paying for power lol

[frosty prism]

nope

had another look and WOW its sad

last time i was getting like 5$ on my 7800X3D a day

its why i started buying parts like 3700X and such

[devout ridge]

not at all

[frosty prism]

zen just nuked in mining

at the end of it i made like 400$ and then just sold the hardware as computers

3700X in nicehash

[devout ridge]

my mac blocks the remote management on my r630 every time i try to launch it

so i have to go into settings to get around it

[spiral quarry]

Nicehash charging my account now since it’s been inactive lol.

[frosty prism]

i just moved my stuff

[spiral quarry]

Trying too but also I forgot the email I used for it

[frosty prism]

i hate moving bitcoin since it costs like 15$

p paid for a 1800X with bitcoin

[devout ridge]

wow my computer is really determined to boot from my sata drive instead of my usb drive

[spiral quarry]

But last I checked I had like 90$ in the account

[frosty prism]

i spent like 45$ now its worth like 2x that since i bought it when bitcoin was low like 180k low i think it was or 280k i dono

[frosty prism]

have you seen the way bitcoin has gone

[spiral quarry]

Not really never kept up with that

[molten iron]

50 degrees is a normal idle temp for 9800x3d right? i haven't enabled pbo yet

[frosty prism]

no its pretty low

[edgy laurel]

before going on this journey, determine you know what true idle means.

[molten iron]

i'm stepping into new shoes so it's gonna take some adjusting

[turbid locust]

idle temps do not matter

they just dont

[molten iron]

idk... boot into windows let everything load and check it out??

[edgy laurel]

they don't, if they're normal. they do if they're abnormally high

[molten iron]

Ok gotcha

[edgy laurel]

1-3% steady usage

[turbid locust]

Man I need to get into some BF6 today. Ive barely played this weekend.

[molten iron]

Once I get a game installed like Helldivers I can see how much it can handle.

[edgy laurel]

1-2% load, so true idle, 50c minimum temp would be abnormal for me, but I don't have that chip.

I also can't remember the last time I ran a chip without an undervolt

[molten iron]

hm. i have background tasks, so i'm seeing 3%-7%, and it's 45 degrees right now

[wraith steeple]

[fringe vigil]

i got that cpu too

[edgy laurel]

yeah that sounds normal, but just understand when saying "idle", it doesn't just mean you're not actively doing anything. It should mean actual idle. 7% isn't idle and with the ways these chips work, the smallest little bit of activity can spike temp easily

[molten iron]

i see

[fringe vigil]

blast my 9800x3d has been great so far

[ionic night]

temp wise yes it is my idle on a ryzen 9 7900x runs about 50 so i would say so

[fringe vigil]

yes i do have one ask guilty

[steel stream]

I thought you had 7800X3D

[fringe vigil]

[turbid locust]

[merry stirrup]

750?

[turbid locust]

errrrrrr

[merry stirrup]

800

[turbid locust]

could probably get 750 for the 5070ti alone on HWS lol

[edgy laurel]

The US and China are in a "technological cold war" over processing power. The US has restricted the export of high-performance GPUs to Chinese companies to maintain its leadership in AI [00:55].

A black market has emerged to bypass these restrictions, reportedly worth billions of dollars annually [04:20].

The video's creators investigated the market in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, China [09:56].

Smuggling methods include repurposing factory-defected hardware, hand-carrying GPUs across borders, and using third-party countries [0330].

The investigation involved speaking with middlemen, independent repair shops, and smugglers [01:40].

The video suggests that Nvidia, the leading GPU manufacturer, is aware of the black market and is driven by profit [03:26:30].

The video is the first on public record to catalog the start-to-finish pipeline of a high-end silicon smuggling operation [03:28:09].

[shell void]

be reasonable macintosh 5070ti is 750 new

@edgy laurel crazy build https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HDXmbq2BWI

[edgy laurel]

you know he's got such a racket going, in a good way. He's said he's got a backlog of videos going back weeks

people bring him cars, maybe multiple in a day

each one a video with minimal setup. attaching a couple gopros

[topaz veldt]

yeah this one i think he's involved in building

its a stock drivetrain M4 but with kevlar body work, carbon seats, hood, trunk, roof, AP brakes, etc., etc., and active DRS on the rear wing (which provides enough downforce its breaking the trunk lid)

[edgy laurel]

Yeah I've only vaguely paid attention that he started some aero company

[topaz veldt]

yeah he left uhhh Apex

which kinda sucks because i was thinking of doing their B&B over there and renting something

I mean I still might, but he isn't involved now

[edgy laurel]

looks like a nice place. well, that whole town ain't bad

but Apex is real close

[topaz veldt]

yeah their whole gig is like 5 mins from the on ramp and you rent their cars

[edgy laurel]

"i only a chance to do 2 laps with the car because I had to drive many other cars" lol

[topaz veldt]

haha yeah

[wraith steeple]

Stove really needs to stop these multi-hour-long vids

[wraith steeple]

He has turned into Icarus

Flew a bit too close to the sun

[molten iron]

The PBO option in AMD’s bios for 9800x3d puts it to 5200mhs clock speed. Is that accurate? Or did I not tweak my bios setting correctly?

[edgy laurel]

hmm, not that I noticed

[topaz veldt]

just seems a little clunky in the attachments windows

[edgy laurel]

PBO doesn't just set a clockspeed in that way. though with that particular chip, yes 5.2Ghz should be max boost

[topaz veldt]

Damn - Misha is rolling this R34 V Spec and the RPM drop between gears is whacky

[molten iron]

Oh okay gotcha. Thank s

[topaz veldt]

yeah PBO is like a voltage reduction with the goal of lower heat boosting higher

@wise bear if ykyk

[nova trout]

[vestal granite]

techpowerup says 5700XT (Navi 10) die size is 251mm² so any of those should work fine

wait is that ptm or is it normal pads

[brisk jolt]

forget what I said I just wokeup

ptm

[vestal granite]

ok yeah any should work

[nova trout]

I’m trying to order a size close to what I need they’re quite expensive

I know any would work I’m trying to find what’s closest size to my use

[vestal granite]

the smallest

[nova trout]

251 square I’ll do some math

[nova trout]

Roger

[hollow hull]

[hoary hatch]

JFC

[edgy laurel]

reddit story type shi

im sorry patty g this is an "then everyone clapped" type beat

[wraith steeple]

average LinkedIn post

[signal parrot]

LinkedIn is the absolute bottom of the barrel, just glazing, glazing and even more glazing with a pinch of "yeah that totally happened"

[frank cypress]

good thing my industry (that im studying for) is just sharing the cool shit u made for the most part

and id lose my mind if it were anything else

[wraith steeple]

Some of the shit I see there ranks right up there with Facebook ISTG

[signal parrot]

i still refuse to make an account there. a close friend of mine still wants me to make one "just for the sake of connecting with whoever" but i dont see the point still

[signal parrot]

facebook got the ai slop. linkedin got the middle manager slop

[whole coral]

Hoping that I can sleep tonight without experiencing hallucinations or sleep paralysis.

Sleep paralysis is terrifying btw

[frank cypress]

fr

had it once

[oak vector]

Same

[frank cypress]

felt like something was just staring at me

but I couldn't move

idk if it was actually sleep paralysis but i think it was?

[whole coral]

I can wake up one morning and not be able to move or talk. Body would be tingling (tactile hallucinations).

Also would feel a sense of danger. Also feeling a sense of presence in the room

[frank cypress]

I cant remember if i was tingling but I vividly remember the second thing

I felt like it was behind me but I couldnt roll over and see what it was

[whole coral]

I hallucinated last night when falling asleep. Literally had my eyes half closed shut and then my vision blacked out and a monster appeared in my eyesight. Also heard strange noises

Not as scary though

[whole coral]

Also if you couldn’t move and talk and you were awake then that’s sleep paralysis

[topaz veldt]

well he can pretty much post whatever he wants because "at least I am not selling the company secrets to the Chinese military" lol

[whole coral]

Sleep paralysis isn’t terribly common I believe. I think 20% of the population has atleast one episode of it.

[shell void]
