[edgy laurel]

i dunno man, you think wawa makes a quality hoagie so i'm a little sus of your thoughts here

[pure garnet]

when i went back up to jersey after 11 years i went to wawa like 5 times in a 4 day span

[wise bear]

kiru like me fr

[edgy laurel]

i'm so very over wawa

but i can't escape it living here

[pure garnet]

it was very much a novelty

[edgy laurel]

there is 1 about 40 seconds from where i'm sitting now, and 2 more within a 5 minute drive

[pure garnet]

but now we're getting either a wawa or some clone of it down the street

[wise bear]

what is "wawa"

[devout ridge]

gas station

[edgy laurel]

north easts gas station/convenience store/deli wombo combo that is everywhere

go birds

[merry stirrup]

what the hell is a wawa

[merry stirrup]

oh thanks

[merry stirrup]

"deli wombo combo"..?

[pure garnet]

the wombo combo is the all 3 things it does

[merry stirrup]

so its like a shitty bucee's or something

[pure garnet]

i don't have those either

[edgy laurel]

much smaller, same concept

[merry stirrup]

yeah okay slay

still big tho

[pure garnet]

the closest bucees is 60 miles from me

[edgy laurel]

yeah but bucee's is on another level

[merry stirrup]

yeah like insane

[pure garnet]

is it worth the trip

[edgy laurel]

i need to go at least once

[merry stirrup]

yeah they have like bbq and shit

[topaz veldt]

we had a vendor bring jersey mikes and 75% of the room went down to the cafeteria lol

[frank zealot]

I laughed:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/xBilK3gT5e0

[topaz veldt]

also wawa hoagies are banging

[merry stirrup]

the video title confuses me so i have no choice but to watch

[topaz veldt]

they literally have hoagiefest thats how good they are

[normal cedar]

if the r27 q30 is cheaper than the r27qe is it a good buy?

[topaz veldt]

its a fuckin hoagie feastival

[wise bear]

[foggy yarrow]

My FN button is not working on my trust gxt keyboard. Can anyone help me out?

[merry stirrup]

the good ending

[edgy laurel]

crazy

bread sucks

[topaz veldt]

omg

[edgy laurel]

need that good crusty stuff from at least Primo's

speaking of sandwiches, are you familiar with Ana's Corner Store

[topaz veldt]

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/10/01/consumers-have-crowned-wawa-as-the-nations-no-1-convenience-store-.html#:~:text=Customers have crowned Wawa the,1 convenience store chain&text=Wawa's hoagies can't be,gas tanks and their stomachs.

Like what Earth are you even from Guilty

[edgy laurel]

thats not talking about the quality of the bread at all don't come at me with that!

[topaz veldt]

This is proposterous and you know it

[edgy laurel]

and some people have shitty taste!

[topaz veldt]

Hey don't bring your problems to me!

[merry stirrup]

gas station hoagie is wild i must admit

[edgy laurel]

As someone with discerning standards such as yourself, this greatly concerns me

[topaz veldt]

you have to understand that Wawa was not a gas station

[merry stirrup]

theres pumps out front

[topaz veldt]

Yes that's new

[merry stirrup]

idk maaan

[topaz veldt]

Don't you people watch TV?

[edgy laurel]

its kinda new

[topaz veldt]

Thats a "Super wawa"

[merry stirrup]

i literally havent had cable since i was 6

i had DSL internet longer than that

[edgy laurel]

in populated areas, non-super Wawa's are pretty much all gone

d-town normal Wawa died about 3-4 years ago. Now we have 2 Super Wawas on either end of town

[merry stirrup]

i have to see this philly place to know if its even real or not

[topaz veldt]

yeah, thats "new" in building talk

[edgy laurel]

https://tenor.com/view/its-always-sunny-in-philadelphia-the-gang-celebration-dancing-boombox-gif-22483701

[merry stirrup]

this is good enough proof

[topaz veldt]

ya'll have never watched The Goldbergs

[edgy laurel]

never

[topaz veldt]

sigh

[merry stirrup]

wonder if verizon would give work a good deal on a zflip 7 for me

[edgy laurel]

5nail https://maps.app.goo.gl/wCNQ29BY9ijm3VXt9

know anything?

[topaz veldt]

Guilty never seen Goldbergs and doesn't respect Wawa the story was already written

[edgy laurel]

the Wawa story?

[merry stirrup]

get hammered and go to wawa 📓

[topaz veldt]

Anas i have not been to, that changed recently

[merry stirrup]

theres no note taking emoji that i like

[topaz veldt]

it obviously was a wawa, but before that it was like ... an indian meat place or something

[edgy laurel]

i drive past it sometimes, been meaning to stop and see if its some hidden gem of god-tier sandwiches

[shell void]

the galaxy flip is for gen x women

[merry stirrup]

my girlfriend is older than me but not that old

[shell void]

that cover screen is not usable

[merry stirrup]

the flip 7 looks cool and the fold is a billion dollars

[topaz veldt]

nothing overtly sought out here

[edgy laurel]

gen x is a lot older than you think

[shell void]

it’s a phone for older women with small pants pockets

[shell void]

my mom is gen x and loves the galaxy flip

[wraith steeple]

My first time hearing it, NGL.... Hearing Kiryu's supporting lines in the Karaoke level made it a little hard to play in terms of concentrating

[topaz veldt]

also guilty i am wrong that one has been Ana's a while, its another one like that I am thinking of

[edgy laurel]

oh is it a chain?

[topaz veldt]

nah

just another "old wawa" that was a thing 3 times

[shell void]

you can probably get a deal on a s25 ultra

[edgy laurel]

yeah, classic old wawa building

[shell void]

much better phone than the flip

[merry stirrup]

i will ask the verizon rep

[vestal granite]

is gen X 50s or 60s

like age not year\

ok i googled it that was easier its 1965 - 1980

so they are like 45 to 60

wait guilty and snail are gen X?

[topaz veldt]

lol

by culture, yes, by age no

[vestal granite]

thats lame

all i can think of for gen X culture are ozzy osbourne, AC/DC, The Goldbergs, lead paint, church, and bowling

[topaz veldt]

fiberglass fumes will do that to ya

[vestal granite]

whats that

[edgy laurel]

[vestal granite]

i dont partake in your new generation of drugs snail

my drug of choice is the drug of life

[cyan canopy]

[vestal granite]

see this is why generations dont make sense u know cause like its the year range but what if ur parents were really old then ur basically being raised on the values of 2 generations ago

[edgy laurel]

I was just reminded of a banger of a game, at least in memory.

[fringe vigil]

Thank you for coming

Why are you g

[merry stirrup]

you eva play metal slug?

[edgy laurel]

don't think so, didn't have any of those platforms

[merry stirrup]

sadge

[edgy laurel]

PS2, but never had s PS1

my sister got one of those PSOne's, the mini one

[fringe vigil]

Ps1 is the best ps

[merry stirrup]

i liked my ps2

[wraith steeple]

Gen X is mid 1960s - early 1980s IIRC

[frank zealot]

flashbacks to workin' at EB in the 90's

[merry stirrup]

i played a lot of jak and daxter

GTA SA/3/Vice City

[frank zealot]

1965-1979/80

[edgy laurel]

Old AF if you were working in the 90's lmao

[merry stirrup]

yeah

you guys are all old compared to me

[edgy laurel]

thats old for me too lol

[frank zealot]

we've already established I'm a fuckin' geezer, what's yah point?

[merry stirrup]

although i did have a lot of older tech and experiences 💀

[edgy laurel]

haha

[merry stirrup]

OLD OLD OLD

[edgy laurel]

you remember FuncoLand

[merry stirrup]

wtf is that

[frank zealot]

I know of, but we didn't have those

[frank zealot]

don't make me get my cane

[edgy laurel]

my mom let me stay home from school and drove me around so we could find a PS2 on launch day. FuncoLand got a truck in as we pulled up with one

best fake sick day ever

[wraith steeple]

[frank zealot]

hells yeah

I was workin' at EB on PS2 launch day lol

[edgy laurel]

I think we called our EB in the mall at the time

I used to buy Mac games from EB, i have a core memory of walking out of there with the Starcraft Battlechest

member when games had boxes with awesome books and maps

[frank zealot]

I had one of those back in the day

hmmmm, I'm contemplating getting a wireless HDMI setup for work

[edgy laurel]

goofy things

[merry stirrup]

i want an ultrawide for work

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel do you remember the I95 Market

[edgy laurel]

Huh, no. I bet my parents do

[frank zealot]

Well, they want to install a 55-75" TV as a PC monitor kinda in the middle of fuckoff nowhere good for connectivity.

So, I figure, I could wireless HDMI to it, and it'd probably be easier

[edgy laurel]

As long as someone else is footing the bill for the equipment to do it, could be fun to play with

[frank zealot]

They want 2 boxes doing the same display out, but about 100 feet apart.

One's at a desk with computers already, so that should be relatively easy.

The other is around 100' away at the other end of the press, kinda in the middle of the room, with nowhere good for data access.

[merry stirrup]

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1697428-REG/lg_29wq600_w_aus_29_ultrawide_wfhd_2560.html
damn not bad

[frank zealot]

yeah, I'm not payin for it lol

[hoary hatch]

Well

[frank zealot]

I have a 50' copper HDMI cable sitting on the shelf from an old project that didn't happen
and a 100' fiber HDMI cable from another project that didn't work out, either.

[hoary hatch]

The new pixels look to be totally fine phones

But uhhh I don't see any real compelling upgrades this year

I shall stick it out for pixel 11

[frank zealot]

I need to start looking at a new phone sometime, but, I do not need flagship.

[hoary hatch]

Pixel a series is generally fine

Specs are fine
Build/design are fine
Experience is fine

[edgy laurel]

looks like the building is still there, abandoned. or seemingly so https://maps.app.goo.gl/etdWGKvxV8JV5Nmp9

[shell void]

way better soc primarily

[frank zealot]

There's very little compelling reason to pay that much for a phone.

And if things continue, I might do an iPhone

[shell void]

switched from samsung fab to tsmc n3

[hoary hatch]

Leaks indicate not much faster

But we don't know the actual soc power consumption

[shell void]

people were hoping for more efficiency not more performance

[hoary hatch]

I'd like better performance numbers...

But as I've said, pixels feel snappy with, what is on paper, a piece of shit processor

[frank zealot]

I want to see interesting phones in the mid-tier.

not the bargain 2-300 buck, but the 500-700 range

[shell void]

i wish iphones let me underclock to like 2GHz

i don’t need more perfomance than an iphone 13 pro provides

[hoary hatch]

The question is always how does it feel in 3, 5, 7 years from now

[shell void]

i want 24 hour battery life

[frank zealot]

more of that is battery related more than CPU Performance related, honestly

most people don't upgrade because the CPU's too slow, but because the battery's worn out and replacing it is too complicated/expensive

[edgy laurel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OibVY-q2SAw

[frank zealot]

I do not know how to read that title

[hoary hatch]

Well future OS upgrades can (and will) be more CPU and ram demanding

[wise bear]

*most people upgrade not because the cpu is too slow
fixed it for u

[hoary hatch]

But also you're not thinking like a pixel buyer

[frank zealot]

sure, but at launch even mid-tier phones tend to be plenty fast for current / +1 or 2 upgrades

[hoary hatch]

You're thinking like an iPhone or Galaxy buyer

Pixel owners choose their pixel
They don't walk into a Verizon and get sold a pixel

[wise bear]

I'm too deep into the google ecosystem to not get a pixel. Plus it's a clean android experience and there's years on years of security & software updates after release

[vestal granite]

yeah i still get latest android on my pixel 6a i think

[frank zealot]

And honestly my next phone might just be an iphone

[hoary hatch]

The Google shills be gobbling up what Google sells us

[shell void]

the new pixel 10 pro fold looks like it’s half a decade behind the galaxy z fold 7 unironically

[hoary hatch]

Cause it is

[vestal granite]

so do the iphone shills and the samsung shills and the oneplus shills and just everyone really

[wise bear]

I've got 2tb in gdrive, a pixel, a chromebook, a chromecast 4k, and have used gmail essentially for my entire online presence

It's not even fangirling at this point I'm just grandfathered in

[vestal granite]

i have a google pixel 6a, a thinkpad, a thinkpad, a thinkpad, a thinkpad, a thinkpad, a thinkpad, a thinkpad, and a thinkpad, and a warship warning for saying this message

oh no warship

[wise bear]

LOL

I do be wanting the pixel 10 though

[shell void]

wow it’s really disappointing

i bet they’re embarrassed

[wise bear]

I wanna retire my 7 to like, a mounted semi-home-automation/entertainment system for the kitchen

[shell void]

it legitimately looks like a phone from maybe 2019

[hoary hatch]

Ew

[vestal granite]

im just really liking the recent android updates its getting very sleek recently and my next phone upgrade will probably just be whenever my 6a doesnt get android feature updates anymore

[hoary hatch]

Peyton used the c word

[wise bear]

asus c423na, i've had it for years now
CHROMEBOOKCHROMEBOOKCHROMEBOOK
(fuck u navy)

[pure garnet]

does warship hate lenovo

[hoary hatch]

Thank you for censoring yourself

[shell void]

hideous

[vestal granite]

no but it usually hates repeated words

my main issue with pixel is that the customization is honestly kind of lacking with some of this stuffs

like lockscreen i can change 3 things and i cant change them to look good just not awful

[shell void]

BRUTALLYYYYY mogged

[vestal granite]

both look clunky and shit

im gonna be real

[wise bear]

The fold looks like it'd be nice as more of a photography/art device more than an actual phone

[vestal granite]

yeah but they make tablets that size i think

[wise bear]

most tablets don't fold though

[shell void]

the fold 7 is very slim and feels and looks incredible IRL

i played around with one at a verizon store

[wise bear]

so, i could see a niche market for the fold

[vestal granite]

u can get some good sized pockets these days pockets are in fashion

[shell void]

the pixel fold is junk

[brisk jolt]

airpods pro 3 waiting room

[wise bear]

You'd be surprised how fucking wrong you are w/ women's current fashion.

[hoary hatch]

I mean....I like it

[brisk jolt]

might consider getting a 17 pro to go with

[shell void]

no need to lie

[hoary hatch]

I want a pixel fold

[shell void]

it gets brutally mogged by the fold 7

[vestal granite]

nah pockets are coming back it just hasnt spread yet but it will

[hoary hatch]

I just AHHH FUCKING TOUCHWIZ

I mean OneUI

[vestal granite]

soon theres gonna be 1000 pockets on each garment and we'll all be like why are there so many pockets

[hoary hatch]

It's still too samsungy

[vestal granite]

then back to 0

[wise bear]

and our pockets are usually ittyfuckingbitty or implemented horrendously poorly and there's so few things that actually just work

[frank zealot]

ain't you greedy, wanting a pocket that will actually hold a phone

[wise bear]

you try finding decent leggings w/ actually good pockets & made of a good material/design that isn't $35/pair

and I'm not talking about those low-rise capri cuts either

(actually gross)

[pure garnet]

purse meta

[brisk jolt]

i have a horrible sense of fashion

[vagrant cargo]

Looks cool but a full led display that isnt transparent would be sick

[wise bear]

I feel too gay w/ a purse- I want a little cross-body sling backpack

[wise bear]

In the cooler months I'm literally just flannel & leggings

[vagrant cargo]

Thats sick where did you buy it?

[brisk jolt]

Ive been wearing the same style of clothing since young

[frank zealot]

awesome:

[brisk jolt]

Its so bad I’d confidently give it a 10/10 for TRASH fashion sense

[pure garnet]

it was a group buy years ago from mech land, i don't think you can get them anymore

[merry stirrup]

550$ for a 4 year old console come suck me behind the same walmart too for that price

[wise bear]

[shell void]

the pro is a no brainer with those prices

[vestal granite]

not buying it is a no brainer with those prices oh SNAP

[shell void]

eh that’s a lot cheaper than my pcs

[vestal granite]

that means nothing

[frank zealot]

this looks like an anti-heatsink:

Z68?

stuffs real old. Ebay...

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Z68+Motherboard&_sacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p4432023.m570.l1313

have you considered just not replacing it?

[merry stirrup]

Z77 technically

[merry stirrup]

yeah its at the point where you really should only buy this stuff as a hobby

[green marsh]

Z77 with USB3 ideally, Z68 next, P67 only in worst case scenario

[merry stirrup]

newer stuff is less expensive

[edgy laurel]

ngl, between whatever came after LGA1366 and all the way to LGA1700, I can't keep any of that shit straight. Never bothered to learn it and cross referencing which socket came on which chipsets and which 2 CPU gens they supported from a decade ago is such a pain in the ass

[merry stirrup]

i only know z77 cause i had it

well, h77, but

[edgy laurel]

I had H97, couldn't tell you what socket it was

[merry stirrup]

1150(1?), haswell

[green marsh]

ebay is one of the worst ideas for old motherboards, they ask stupid prices

[edgy laurel]

🤷‍♂️

ain't seen none of y'all helping! 😆

[merry stirrup]

you can get an entire haswell or later computer for the price youre willing to pay for a new Z68 board

[edgy laurel]

but its a classic trope. don't jump into help, but always jump in to correct the person trying to help. I do it too, so i welcome it

[merry stirrup]

hey man! i gave my suggestion!

[edgy laurel]

lmao i'm saying I know it and do it too so its all good! lol

[merry stirrup]

RAHHHH

[edgy laurel]

you know i do it..

[merry stirrup]

LOL yeah we all do

[edgy laurel]

lol

[clever horizon]

Its not really gonna be used that much

[merry stirrup]

then why are you purchasing it

[clever horizon]

My cousins budget is really low and i have a 3570k

In my old mb but the audio doesnt work

[merry stirrup]

go find an oem workstation for the cost youre willing to pay for the board

[clever horizon]

He is like 12

[merry stirrup]

you will be able to

[edgy laurel]

USB audio "cards" are cheap

[merry stirrup]

or that lowkey a great idea

even real audio cards lol

[clever horizon]

Could you recommend me some

Im not really educated

[edgy laurel]

this kinda thing

[clever horizon]

In audio card things

[edgy laurel]

audio in and out for $9

[clever horizon]

I found one for 5 dollars new

[edgy laurel]

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=USB+sound+card&crid=2ND6FCJZHLNDQ&sprefix=usb+sound+card%2Caps%2C133&ref=nb_sb_noss_1

[clever horizon]

Idk if this is good tho

Its a random ahh thing

USB SOUND ADAPTER 7,1 (10 KM)
https://olx.ba/artikal/58707262

[edgy laurel]

i mean, if the goal is audible sound, it should do that

[clever horizon]

As long as its not horrible

[edgy laurel]

not exactly audiophile grade DAC's but it'll function

[clever horizon]

I found this model too

[edgy laurel]

just so we're clear I can't tell you how well any of these will work

[clever horizon]

I know that its probably all luck related

Its the cheapest way to fix the thing for him tho

[edgy laurel]

but there are cheap ways to get audio out

[clever horizon]

Cause he is really bad at saving money so now hes buying cheap stuff

[merry stirrup]

even stuff like this:

just tape off the ones built into the board and tell him to use those ones

[edgy laurel]

old Ivy Bridge system, probably has a few spare PCIe slots

[merry stirrup]

can even get such a card with a front audio connector and fix the case audio too

[edgy laurel]

oh yeah if it has HDaudio port, nice thinkin

[merry stirrup]

def, all my ivy/sandy stuff has x1 slots spammed over it

[clever horizon]

Any of you heard of the creative labs ct4810

[final glacier]

https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-releases-fidelityfx-sdk-2-0

[green marsh]

look at local used market, maybe you can score one for cheap or free.
And summary why what:

1. you got a 3570K, so you might want an OC board. If not, i will write alternatives
2. if you can, get a Z77 board. Why ? Because it got PCI-E 3.0 support. Alternatively with no OC, the H77 or B75 is a good alternative.
3. Second best option is Z68, ideally with USB3 support. Z68 is PCI-E 2.0 only, but at least it supports IGP.
4. P67 is the last resort, because it doesn't support IGP and also some boards might be the B2 revision which had the SATA problems

[final glacier]

Before AMD took the libary down, the FSR4 code included libraries for INT8, strongly suggesting that it was intended for the Radeon 7000 series.

[merry stirrup]

id look and see if you can get a 6th gen based workstation if youre going to consider buying a new board

50$ for a new board is stupid when you can get an entire other computer thats faster for the same price

4-7th gen workstations should pretty actively be pennies rn

[edgy laurel]

25-30y/o soundcard, PCI bus. Why?

[green marsh]

well, i am just explaining what to look for if he insists on 2/3rd gen board. And as i said, ideally super cheap or free, locally

[merry stirrup]

yeah fair

[clever horizon]

Cause its 5 bucks 😭🙏

do you even have a PCI slot?

[merry stirrup]

yes he should

[clever horizon]

I should

[edgy laurel]

it was a good card for retro stuff

[merry stirrup]

but thats dumb, spend 10$ more on a proper card

[clever horizon]

The pc isnt home rn

At my friends house

[clever horizon]

Any names i should look for?

[edgy laurel]

tbh, that Creative card might be better than the chinese slop for $17 on ebay

[merry stirrup]

no, just anything lol

[edgy laurel]

but getting drivers will be a pain

[merry stirrup]

and drivers that actually work on modern oses

[edgy laurel]

it was a Windows 98-era card

that site isn't making much sense to me, are one of these numbers a price

[clever horizon]

80KM is a bosnian currency its basically 43-45 dollars

[merry stirrup]

ohhh i thought BAM was the currency

thats what aliexpress says to me so i believed it

[edgy laurel]

glad I asked, i thought maybe it was a market place and it was 80km from somewhere..lol

[merry stirrup]

thought it was 80km away from me somehow

[topaz veldt]

well 512GB of 2666 DDR4 and 256GB of 2400

[merry stirrup]

i think im chillin, my 2690 V4 based t5810 was only 80 and thats the same gen of cpu

[topaz veldt]

yeah same overall gen

[green marsh]

or

[merry stirrup]

id like ram but i dont really super have a need

[topaz veldt]

you don't have enough slots for all this ram prob

[edgy laurel]

Oh I've had those. I've seen all the stories of accidental shutdown/sleeps. Someone was sleeping when they approved that design.

[green marsh]

i would love to upgrade my second X99 to 4x32GB DDR4 ECC REG too, but it can wait

[merry stirrup]

i have 8, single cpu

[topaz veldt]

ya these are 32GB'ers

[final glacier]

creative pci soundcards aren't the best for retro like dos, you really want an isa card for that

[green marsh]

a single 32GB RDIMM stick can be had for around 25-30 euros, so not that horrible

if you don't mind it being an ITX board

[frank zealot]

sometimes I just can't with people.

Dude who is "one of the tech better" people, is trying to claim that "any wireless signal going from one device to another is casting"

and... ugh. All I told him was I was using Wireless HDMI. >.<

[green marsh]

(and if it works)

[clever horizon]

Its fine

[edgy laurel]

thats their definition of the term "casting"

[clever horizon]

He says its working and people on here usually dont lie

[edgy laurel]

i mean, its short for broadcasting so like

[frank zealot]

wanna know what makes it even worse?

He's actually a musician. He should know that casting is not just wireless. >.<

[edgy laurel]

true

i bet he loves his Chromecast

and he Miracasts to it

I did always find it funny that the Miracast function built into Windows only worked over wifi

but then the Miracast standard was developed by the Wifi alliance to be a wireless only thing

[frank zealot]

yup

[merry stirrup]

a STEAL!

[green marsh]

well the board is one of the top boards for the platform, if you don't mind the size and limitations it brings

[edgy laurel]

is this really the suitable solution

to give to a kid for occasional use when only audio is broken

this isn't an enthusiast of the platform looking for a new board to tinker with

[green marsh]

at $30 with CPU, it is worth even for collector item 😄

[edgy laurel]

[merry stirrup]

yeah i was beaming guys with default ar with attachments from like 200m away in 3 shots

thats moderately wild

NO i dont thank you very much SIR

floppa are you buying th ti

[merry stirrup]

yeah macas

i get paid sometime today or tomorrow or the next day if im unlucky

[edgy laurel]

shoot them first? i dunno i've been playing lots of battlefield games recently, this is how they are. the 6 Demo didn't feel notably different

[edgy laurel]

70ti?

[merry stirrup]

yes

[edgy laurel]

so if things keep going as they have been, in a few weeks to a few months, you'll both have 5090's

[merry stirrup]

i cant fit one in me case tho

[edgy laurel]

you and @steel stream i mean

[steel stream]

no no no

[merry stirrup]

D31 is too small

330mm gpus only

[edgy laurel]

i buy the 5070ti aand then explode

gf gets 3080 and then she needs cpu/platform upgrade

[topaz veldt]

floppa is only poor sap without a 5090

[edgy laurel]

thats mean

[topaz veldt]

its true

[merry stirrup]

it is

[edgy laurel]

no I mean, its actually kinda a crappy thing to shame someone for

[green marsh]

BFBC2/BF3/4/1 were way slower, not a "peek out of a spawn and you are dead without notification of any previous hits". BF5 was way too sniper infested to be taken seriously

[topaz veldt]

its not shaming

everyone has been buying 5090s lately

I didn't say lol floppa you're poor and your gpu sucks

[edgy laurel]

ehhhhhhhhhh

[topaz veldt]

I said he's the only poor (figurative, not economic) dude without a 5090 now

[merry stirrup]

i mean just in a different way 💀

[topaz veldt]

oh fuck off guilty lol

in the politest of terms

[merry stirrup]

id like a 5090 but im worried i wouldnt really care

[edgy laurel]

Don't make fun of flappa!

[topaz veldt]

we got michael and mac pullingon 5090s the world is wild

[merry stirrup]

like yeah fast gpu is fast but at the same time i get 300fps in most games i play already

[green marsh]

what is eating the 400mm length for you in D31 ?

[topaz veldt]

I feel like akn is going to sideline us

[merry stirrup]

uh, case?

wdym

[green marsh]

the specs say 330-400mm length for GPU

[edgy laurel]

he, unlike floppa, is at 4k

so he might

[edgy laurel]

he shouldn't, but he might

[topaz veldt]

I feel like we're just cresting the 5090 insanity

[green marsh]

with PSU Level-1, you can have 400mm GPU ?

[merry stirrup]

when i was building it didnt seem like i had any option for moving the PSU

i indeed have a 360 aio

[steel stream]

no no no

absolutely not

[topaz veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/ponke-ponkesol-solana-sol-simpsons-gif-11403154367916175406

[green marsh]

then time to give up the >330mm GPU

[merry stirrup]

i care about a competent cpu/ram tune infinitely more than being able to fit a 5090 into my computer

damn right it is

[green marsh]

or get a smaller PSU

[merry stirrup]

i have a normal ATX currently, i was going to get SFX but this one was a good deal

[green marsh]

with <=14cm PSU length, you can still have 342-360mm GPU

[edgy laurel]

me sitting back remembering the SN770 specific fault caused by Windows that I already weathered.

earlier in the year

and firmware patched away

[merry stirrup]

you can see, no clearance

[green marsh]

Crucial m4 SMART lockup bug.
Samsung 840 series bug
Sandforce drives bricking themselves

[merry stirrup]

that gpu was too long even and the psu physically sat on it lol

[edgy laurel]

yeah but were these due to a Windows update?

[green marsh]

nah, they just bricked themselves from use 😄

but i bet this is also in the end a firmware bug in the drive

it was just exposed by the change in Windows behavior

[edgy laurel]

luckily the SN770 issue didn't brick anything, a reboot would bring them back. And also luckily it happened on my storage drive which was a 2TB model, not my 1TB boot drive

easy to fix

i know michael and I think 5nail? had boards eat NVMe drives

[merry stirrup]

yea mikes asus boards seem to hate his drives

GUYS

[edgy laurel]

5090 time?

[merry stirrup]

at work i found a usb to surface charger cable

oh

[merry stirrup]

this is goated

im so taking it

USBC* my bad

[green marsh]

oh yeah i forgot about the 980 Pro 2TB issue

[edgy laurel]

oh, yeah that one was big

[merry stirrup]

usb...male though. so i cant just plug it in to like a USB pd brick from a laptop

time for one of them gan bricks?

[green marsh]

i have one, relegated to the AM4 system tho

[merry stirrup]

goppa just want DLSS and a card to play with thats modern

ill 2x power limit the 70ti (might just do +67%)

[topaz veldt]

RTX 5050

[merry stirrup]

the 7800XT isnt bad but its not great esp at the same 300w

[shell void]

pumping 600W out of a 5070Ti just to compete with a 5080

[topaz veldt]

we got $999 5080s everywhere

[merry stirrup]

i hope it would scale better than that at least in 3dmark

[shell void]

well it's about a 15% gap

[merry stirrup]

and what can you gain without a pl mod

5-8%?

i REALLY hope a 2x increase isnt only another couple percent but ive seen worse

[green marsh]

too bad it took it so long to reach the prices 4080 Super had. For relatively minor gain

[topaz veldt]

MFG + mild uplift is nice

[merry stirrup]

pumping 600 free watts over a significantly more expensive 5080

and for only benchmarks

[shell void]

id be surprised if you were able to break 500w tbh

[merry stirrup]

would just depend on cooling and voltage limits

[green marsh]

i don't know, a 10-15% gaming improvement is nothing which would push a 4080 Super owner to buy a 5080. I don't take frame generation things into account

[merry stirrup]

ampere did 2x pl extremely easy on a stock configuration

640w out of a 2x8pin 3080

[topaz veldt]

hardwareswap disagrees

[shell void]

it hits the voltage limit with the factory max pl of 330w

[shell void]

3080 was also a 628mm gpu

[pure garnet]

ampere was also a significantly large die yeah

[merry stirrup]

thats kinda why i specified ampere 😭

[shell void]

youre gonna need custom watercooling if you wanna do 600w on a neutered 380mm gpu

[merry stirrup]

if it can do that in the first place

i understand that allowing the card to draw 600w does not mean that it is going to draw 600w

if its voltage limited at a stock configuration then cooling isnt a concern cause its not drawing anymore power

[shell void]

yeah i was constantly at the 1.06v limit at only like 300W

[merry stirrup]

if its not voltage limited at stock, it will be before 600w

[edgy laurel]

cards got weird after Ampere. There was not a time that I'd fire up a game on my 3090 and wouldn't see a flat 400W

[merry stirrup]

my 3080 registers 260 cause of the shunts remaining on the card lol

[pure garnet]

yeah they’re actually efficient now it’s great

my 3080 sucked down 320-340w and now my 5070ti barely touches 200w in most stuff i play

[edgy laurel]

yet my 4090 would be faster while pulling way less power, it was kinda wild

[merry stirrup]

ampere just had a terrible efficiency curve that nvidia ignored

[shell void]

im always at 550-600W playing on the 5090

[merry stirrup]

mainly because samsung cant make a node

[pure garnet]

i’m gonna make your master sit perma below 400w

[shell void]

450W is a good spot for it

itll sit at like 2600-2660MHz which is similar to what a stock 5090FE does

[pure garnet]

5070ti went to the retirement home basically

my power draw is so much lower than when you had it

[shell void]

playing on a retro resolution will do that

[pure garnet]

well when i wanna blow 900 on a display i’ll let you know

[merry stirrup]

lol the prime 70ti should have i2c connector

[pure garnet]

if i get oled anything it’ll be a tv though

[merry stirrup]

that through hole is i2c

dont even need to take apart the card to put an evc on

[shell void]

that's maxed out tho of course it can go lower

though it's still a pig at idle if youre running multi monitor

[merry stirrup]

strong feeling a voltage limit means nothing to me now

[shell void]

thatll be good because it's heavily voltage limited

1.06v is nuts

come on let the card pull up to 1.20v & 600w if it's not throttling

[merry stirrup]

the ol 1150mv

[pure garnet]

if i ever get a tv from lg direct im very tempted to get the free guy comes to house to take it out the box for giggles

[merry stirrup]

honestly worth it

with how flat oleds are its kind of hard to move them

let that guy get his paycheck

[frank zealot]

oh shit, a SK Hynix drive is on the list of drives that gets fragged by the windows update thing

[merry stirrup]

that's kinda surprising that they're on it

Plat P41

[merry stirrup]

oh damn

that one is a common drive actually moderately worrying

@hoary hatch dont you have these

[frank zealot]

yup

[merry stirrup]

yeah thats like one of the better g4 drives that gets recoed for higher end rigs kinda L

[merry stirrup]

wonder if my p31 will genuinely explode lol

[frank zealot]

most of them come back after a system power cycle

[merry stirrup]

deshroud on modern cards seems interesting

[frank zealot]

so it's not fatal, usually, but the WD Blue did die die

[merry stirrup]

wonder if that does anything, conosidering a lot of the shrouds are already super open

[merry stirrup]

noted

i had weird issues a couple days ago installing wondows on to an am4 rig, my p31 straight up refused to work in the board

[shell void]

the benefit is being able to put thick 120mm fans on it instead of slim 90-100mm oem fans

[merry stirrup]

it detected it but in the nvme settings it said "self test controller fail"

[shell void]

more pressure at a lower volume

[merry stirrup]

but on any other board it still works so idk

[merry stirrup]

might be worthy for if EVC

with the dell server fans i have im sure those would cool great

[green marsh]

i deshrouded my 2080 Ti, put it in NR200p, fans mounted at bottom of case blow air directly on it

I am running DIMM Fit now

[shell void]

is that an auto tune thing

[topaz veldt]

yea

[shell void]

i am highly skeptical

[topaz veldt]

its actually nice

it doesnt tune the ram, you have to get it stable

but then it just maximizes shit afterward

namely ODTs

Yesn't
I have the Solidigm version

P44 pro

[merry stirrup]

ah okie

my bad gango

[hoary hatch]

I thought those use Hynix in house controllers tho

thats what i was thinking, the p41 and p44 probably have the same cont

cause iirc theyre like almopst the same innit

oh tweaking impedances for those? interesting

am5 gear 1 tuning is so braindead

i appreciate it

my braindead profile

1.20vsoc tho, zentimings doesnt read it correctly

actually i mightve bumped that to 1.225 lemme open hwinfo

yah i did

[merry stirrup]

y vpp 1.85

autoed there?

[shell void]

yah i leave vpp and vddp and vddg on auto because theyve never been a problem

[merry stirrup]

wack

idk why msi doesnt like running jedec spec for things like that

my b650 tommy and z790i edge both auto to 1.85 vpp and the edge hates it at high freq

[shell void]

and i dont enable expo so that's legitimate auto for them

[merry stirrup]

wack

yeah my edge liked 1.8 which is spec better

i think mac tried 1.9 on his mpower it was also bad

hopefully when i get the mpower from mac it unskill issues and does 8k

[shell void]

it works so i shant touch it

[merry stirrup]

realest shit

[shell void]

i was using 6 scl and 6 rdrd with 1.43vdd and 1.20vsoc which also worked

but i bumped up to 8 8 1.45 1.225 for safety sanity buffer

[merry stirrup]

fair

[shell void]

as seen in 4k

[merry stirrup]

i think im on some rando 7600 tune

maybe 7600 w/moderately adjusted xmp primaries and trfc/trefi tweaks

[shell void]

UNACCEPTABLE

minimize timings at 7600 and daily it

[merry stirrup]

i have an 8k 12 hour yc profile

i want to redo cpu settings at some point tho

and its only verified on those cpu settings

and im not redoing testing rn so im at 7600

[shell void]

i think i would run hyperthreading if i went back to my 14900k because having a r23 score below 40k is emasculating

[merry stirrup]

im like just barely under 40K w/ my no ht tune

[shell void]

cap

[merry stirrup]

around 38k iirc

[shell void]

i know precisely how it performs you cannot fool me

[merry stirrup]

whatever the 265K is

[pure garnet]

he just uses smt instead of ht smile

[merry stirrup]

might be misremembering and its 32K

[shell void]

calling 37K just barely under 40K is like calling 5'10 just barely under 6'0

[merry stirrup]

but its like identical cb score to akns 265k

[shell void]

im 5'9.5 which is practically 5'10 which is just barely below 5'11 which is essentially 6'0

[merry stirrup]

its like, 7%

[shell void]

your score starts with a 3 so your opinion is invalid

[merry stirrup]

isnt my best score higher than yours?

[wraith steeple]

He also said that he saw particles in the loop as with admitting is pure distilled

[merry stirrup]

cloud shader comp?

[merry stirrup]

ahh

[wraith steeple]

So yeah.... Looks like potential algae or bacteria growth in there

[merry stirrup]

makes sense

why glug glug tho?

[vagrant cargo]

how much better would this be for my silent pc build comapred to the corsair tempest airflow 4000d case i have https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNMBD7S3AGk

like this case has my interest in a way tbh i really like the bright red one , if i get some akira stickers i can make it a akira themed case or neo tokyo based case

[fringe vigil]

RIP Frank caprio

Legend

[edgy laurel]

Better in what way? Nearly all cases from known brands can be silent. That’s a matter of fan choice and more importantly tuning.

[wraith steeple]

You know how folks would audibly gulp? That's more or less what it is when the coolant flows through. Either for bubbles in blocks or worse case scenario..... Build up

[merry stirrup]

ah

[wraith steeple]

Albeit that's speculation as pics and even a little vid can help. But pretty confident is growth and some galvanic reactions/build up going on

[vagrant cargo]

wait did that case i linked to release yet im gonna watch the review for it when it releases

[merry stirrup]

he did say copper only

so i dont think galvanic

unless hes unlucky

[wraith steeple]

Then probably some algae/bacteria growth if that's the case

[merry stirrup]

🫡

[vagrant cargo]

im curious to see reviews for TRYX Crossflow aand the cases thats in when or if those cases have released yet

i dunno the shape of the fans interests me

[edgy laurel]

Many people won't want to hear this but in the realm of good cases from major brands, you're buying into the look and silly features. That is, with ATX mid/full towers.

If you're hoping to get some earth shaking information in a review... you're simply not paying much attention.

If you want quiet, but a case with the biggest fans you can find and run them low.

Done, we've solved it for you.

[merry stirrup]

quiet is more about how willing you are to change fan curves in your bios

[edgy laurel]

amen

[merry stirrup]

a lot of pc fans can be quiet, even the elcheapo garbage 2$ per fan

[vagrant cargo]

for me i want a pc with good affair and tons of led display screens

tbh ive never been a massive fan of glass panels on side of pc

[edgy laurel]

tons of led display screens...

[frank cypress]

this is fascinating

[merry stirrup]

goppa only see cloud shader comp

[edgy laurel]

Can't help you with the second part, you're not going to find one come that way. You are free to add as many as you want after the fact.

[vagrant cargo]

i want led displays on both sides and a smaller one on the front or just on the sides

[devout ridge]

light coming from my pc is power that could have been used for computation

[merry stirrup]

why are they taking away my 13900KS strong suit

[edgy laurel]

figured it would be up your alley

[merry stirrup]

its fun looking at shader comp take .8 seconds on my 13900KS

[vagrant cargo]

i just like the idea of changing my case using led displays to match any theme or make it have different styles from various media and games i like

[shell void]

Lian Li O11D Mini v2 and Lian Li TL LCD Wireless fans

[vagrant cargo]

a world of horror pc case using the led display would be neat

[frank cypress]

haha I try my best to read and understand these sorta things

[vagrant cargo]

i like that game

[edgy laurel]

Wish you were around for when TLOU Part 1 dropped on PC. I was at it for like 20 minutes with a 7900x. Your 13900k wouldn't have taken 1 second, trust me lol

[frank cypress]

idk, i still feel like i know very little

[shell void]

or a Lian Li Vision with a screen ontop of the motherboard area

[merry stirrup]

yeah this happened in stalker 2 on the 7900x3d

[fringe vigil]

L I have 9800x3D

[edgy laurel]

S2 wasn't nearly as bad, like a blink of an eye compared to TLOU Part 1

[merry stirrup]

also keep in mind the 7900x is quite a bit slower

[fringe vigil]

Yeah we know

[merry stirrup]

and has to deal with the ccd things

[edgy laurel]

you're underestimating what was going on, it was a huge meme. EVERYONE was waiting ages

[merry stirrup]

oh i see

[vagrant cargo]

i really like the hyte Y70 style cases with the displays be neat to have a led display that went around the entire display

[merry stirrup]

i played tlou one emulated on an 11700K, normies

[edgy laurel]

poor 5600x guys were stuck waiting over a half hour

[vagrant cargo]

yet the case would be even more pricey and yes i would buy it

[merry stirrup]

4K 60FPS AVX512 GOATED

[merry stirrup]

LOL deserved

[edgy laurel]

that was the peak of games broken at launch

[fringe vigil]

Pumped to get oled

[heavy mantle]

you didnt have to get pumped to get that🤷‍♂️

[merry stirrup]

how big are these compiled shaders we'd need to download?

also that makes me concerned for if said "compiling servers" go offline

[topaz veldt]

TLOU was ridiculous

[pure garnet]

mh wilds cache is like 500mb

[edgy laurel]

Not gonna lie I didn’t actually read the article

[shell void]

that’s what they get for paying $300-330 for a 5600x when the 10700k was $270

and the 11400f was $140

[merry stirrup]

mkay so not big

[edgy laurel]

You guys are not listening. Day one it was atrocious for everyone.

[merry stirrup]

assuming theres a fallback to just compile locally its fine but if not theres a problem

[edgy laurel]

The game was literally broken

[shell void]

loaded fast on my 7980xe

(i dont even know what game youre talking about)

(i never had a 7980xe)

[vestal granite]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qN130ySBqE new billet video (it was posted 2 weeks ago)

[edgy laurel]

Yes, I knew you were actually there for it. It was real bad.

[fringe vigil]

Mf what

[edgy laurel]

jorj you’re missing context

Your favorite game is not being insulted

[fringe vigil]

Good

[merry stirrup]

meow

[vagrant cargo]

i wish we would get more uncharted games over the constant ports we get of the last of us

i want a complete uncharted game remaster / remake collection containing everything nut for ps5 and maybe pc

i wanna mod uncharted so badly it hurts

[merry stirrup]

tell naughty dog to stop being naughty dogs

[merry stirrup]

somethin something emulator probably

[vagrant cargo]

tbh ia bunch of my friends recently since i always help everyone money wise decided to put money together and they brought me the kriscoolmods emulation hard drives they brought me the 124tb ones that add upto over 3 thousand pound

[merry stirrup]

that sounds like a scam

[vagrant cargo]

someone i knew in college a friend from them has them and shown me those

[merry stirrup]

paying money for roms?

thats just piracy with more steps

jfc and theyre fucking 300$

[vagrant cargo]

yeah but having a hard drive enclosure with fans and cooling with those

[merry stirrup]

yeah this guy needs to find a bridge

[merry stirrup]

do you know how cheap a hard drive enclosure is

[vagrant cargo]

i think its that price because of the hard drives used and also well, theres games from current consoles on them aswell

[merry stirrup]

so its extremely illegal

and overpriced

[vagrant cargo]

tbh uk is weird its not illegal to buy those sort of things in the uk however its illegal if your a uk citizen to sell them

but its ok to buy them from overseas

[edgy laurel]

highly illegal. guy is selling HDD's full of pirated games

[merry stirrup]

lmao

[pure garnet]

that sounds uh

wrong at minimum

[edgy laurel]

with some shitty launcher and charging a bunch of money for it

[vagrant cargo]

uk has always been a mess and now we got the safety act what is now targetting wikipedia amongst other stuff

the goverment or a goverment offical recently went on tv and said there needs to be age verification and photo id to use vpns

[merry stirrup]

this has to be malware

[vagrant cargo]

she can f right off

[pure garnet]

3 thousand gbp for a hard drive with games on them

[merry stirrup]

one click gaming driver to run roms

[vagrant cargo]

no i own a cheaper kinhank hard drive and no malware what so ever

[pure garnet]

it's some bootable linux thing with retroarch setup on it

[vagrant cargo]

and the kinhank one i own is around 200gb

[brave panther]

they can say whatever they want when you can make your own vpn

[merry stirrup]

with a one click gaming driver thats required?

yeah bro

its malware

[vagrant cargo]

honestly if the uk doesnt cut the crap soon either americas gonna step in or protests are gonna get ugly in the uk

[edgy laurel]

huh, those don't look like retro ROM's...

[edgy laurel]

omg

[merry stirrup]

this is advanced malware

[brave panther]

https://tenor.com/view/dictator-smells-like-smells-gif-19991583

[merry stirrup]

this is malware that you pay for

you get fucking double scammed bro

[vagrant cargo]

the kinhank hard drive i have has nintendo switch games on it

[merry stirrup]

yes but old, how much is it

[lean cradle]

200

[vagrant cargo]

they run like they do on the switch some of them run better on pc funny enough

[merry stirrup]

absolutely not

tell the person who listed that to find a bridge

[brave panther]

wayy to much for a ddr3 platform

[vagrant cargo]

i would buy a switch 2 but cant justify the crap nintendo hjas been pulling

[merry stirrup]

but you justify a 3000$ 24tb hdd full of pirated games

[lean cradle]

could it be the 4 500 GB SSD ?

[merry stirrup]

no lmao

those are basically free

[vagrant cargo]

yeah and im not buting a switch 2 over the fact if i mod it they will brick it

[lean cradle]

how much should i realistically ask him to sell it for

[merry stirrup]

like 50-80$

[brave panther]

do you really want a 1u server?
do you know how loud they are

[lean cradle]

(would it run well?)

[merry stirrup]

maybe 200$ at most with drives

[merry stirrup]

no lmao its fucking 13 years old

[vagrant cargo]

fact of the matter once you buy a console a company shouldnt legally be allowed to purposely brick it

[lean cradle]

omg

[merry stirrup]

look into X99/2011-3 at a minimum

[vagrant cargo]

i miss how things were with the older consoles

[wise bear]

YES YES YES YES YES

[merry stirrup]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/136027992603?

[lean cradle]

this is better?

[merry stirrup]

youd need a rando SSD, sata or an NVME card, but its a lot better lol

yes

you can go to a 14 core cpu thats 2 generations newer than the other one you posted for 10$

you probably wont need it, the 1650 V4 is an 8 core

my bad its a 6 core

[brave panther]

but for MC, you are better off getting a consumer cpu

[merry stirrup]

yeah but if you want a real server

[lean cradle]

i do have this with the i7 and 16 gb instead of 32 ( no gpu). would this be good with an added ssd? or is the ddr3 ram just that bad
