Just making sure it’s stable before I minimize

[pure garnet]

godbin should need less than 1.6 surely

[shell void]

ram tuning the long way

i shotgun things im not waiting for allat

[pure garnet]

fr

change 40 settings, it either errors or doesn't

[turbid locust]

the fear of a 9 hour in karhu error has a chokehold on my soul

[pure garnet]

i might raise trefi but im on alder lake so i'm kinda playing with fire at 6400

destiny 2 is sucking down 200w on the 12900ks

that's new

[turbid locust]

trying 1.5v

[shell void]

[topaz veldt]

VMware workstation isnt real VMware 🥳

I'm on 1.60vdimm for 8000 CL32, thinking of spending time tuning with volts lower but also it's like 45C and works 100%

[turbid locust]

what IC

[topaz veldt]

H16a

[turbid locust]

I remember trying 7600cl32 and it not working at like 1.65v lol

@shell void watching this BZ vid and his 9950x's IMC is almost as good as yours

he's doing 6400/2133 at 1.22 vsoc

[topaz veldt]

I'm running 2133 at vsoc 1.11

Figured it'd take more

[turbid locust]

wait 2133 at 8000?

why?

[turbid locust]

he’s also running 1.65v VDD for 6400c28 lol. Life before god bins.

[shell void]

wow that's buns

[turbid locust]

He acknowledges in the video it's probably higher than it needed but he didnt care lol

also my funny kit should be coming today

idk if im gonna keep it or not

[pure garnet]

cudimm

2h into the vt3 so far, hopium engaged

[wraith steeple]

[turbid locust]

@shell void

shall we try 1.45v?

[pure garnet]

i say yes

[turbid locust]

I’m guessing it’s not gonna be happy at 1.45v but I’m trying it anyway lol

[pure garnet]

trust in the godbin mac

do not trust the cheap patriot viper with binning claims lower than gskill

@shell void @turbid locust amazon delisted the patriot 8000 kit

[turbid locust]

LOL

[pure garnet]

mf prolly had a 96% return rate

[turbid locust]

the 7600c36 Patriot kit I had for a little bit worked alright

[nova trout]

anyone knows about minidump files

[pure garnet]

i think they just got too happy with binning

i know you can use windbg to read them and see what crashed but that's all

[turbid locust]

But I returned it, only was using it for a sanity check

It’s how I found out my 5600 jedec kit was H16M

[pure garnet]

i didn't try the 7800cl38 profile but like

if 2/3 xmp profiles are useless im just returning it

[turbid locust]

There’s a chance it’s your board but like

Did you ever try with just 1 stick?

[pure garnet]

no i didn't but mike had issues with his set so i kinda already had the sticks being the issue in my mind

[turbid locust]

lol just saw a dude post his 7800X3D + 5070Ti rig and go “I know it’s 1080p I have to save up for 1440p”

[pure garnet]

if i was smart i would've played memory kit round robin and put my 8000c38 setup on my gskill kit to test board

[turbid locust]

[pure garnet]

rn my h24m gskill is in my alder pc and i have my a die in my arrow lake pc

[turbid locust]

My rationale is that if each stick worked individually at XMP then it was just probably your board not handling dual channel

[slim pebble]

It’s real, and it’s also the best VM workstation software available.

[pure garnet]

my master is the on the official 200s page so i feel like someone has tested it though

[turbid locust]

I just do not trust 4 dimmers lmao

[pure garnet]

at 7600 i trust it

i could buy an apex but that's very much stretching the reasonable justification of why i got the 265k

"hey yeah my pc wouldn't sleep so im going to buy a $600 overclocking motherboard"

[turbid locust]

1.45v hard crashed, think we’re gonna target 1.5v

I would be really happy with 6400cl26 full tune at 1.5v I think

Assuming it’s actually stable. Gonna let it run for longer before I start doing subtimings

Will likely just do generic A die timings all at once

Don’t have the patience to minimize every single timing anymore lol

[pure garnet]

yeah that's what im selling my 7800x3d to a buddy with

basic stable a die tune

[slim pebble]

Enough to make you feel good about the upgrade at least

[fringe vigil]

112gb for path of exile 2 wtf

[pure garnet]

[turbid locust]

Comes with 40 bent pins

[shell void]

im sketch on used boards after the used b650e-e nuked my 990 pro

[south shuttle]

on a good day

/j

[south shuttle]

what happened

[shell void]

it nuked the drive

completely fried the controller and made it unrecognizable

[turbid locust]

Considering Amazon sold me a “new” HDV when i originally bought it, open it, check it out, and like 27 bent pins, not even /j

[south shuttle]

maybe some bad unit + asus mb + samsung drive shenanigans

[south shuttle]

well, that’s better than 40

[turbid locust]

my original HDV order

[shell void]

beautiful

[turbid locust]

Amazon has always done me right though with returns

[south shuttle]

how do you even manage to bend pins like dat

[south shuttle]

27 is 32.5% less than 40

you got a good deal there

sadly most asrock mobos and also other mb manufacturers a lot of the time don’t put seals

[turbid locust]

When I submitted the return for that I straight up added pics and was like “I have no way to prove this wasn’t me, but it wasn’t me. There’s a return label on the box from the previous return.”

[turbid locust]

I didn’t notice it didn’t have a seal at first

[south shuttle]

so considering no seal wasn’t tampered with it could be considered “new” if there are no signs of use

just not brand new, out of factory

[turbid locust]

The only I’ve ever seen come with no seal is the Gigabyte 5090 outside box

[south shuttle]

my asrock mbs also didn’t have a seal

[turbid locust]

The card itself was in an anti static bag with tamper seals, but the box itself had no seal

[turbid locust]

hmmmm tbh I don’t remember

[south shuttle]

my hdvs didn’t for sure

unsure about riptide

i don’t think even that had a seal

[snow holly]

First f1 race on the new rig

V noice

[south shuttle]

my hdv boxes had no seal, you could instantly open them up and pull the mb out of the static bags

[turbid locust]

lol wtf

[pure garnet]

i don't think the 5070ti box had a seal either

when my card made it's first stop it got taped shut though

[south shuttle]

looks like certain batches have seals and don’t have?

[pure garnet]

3.5h of vt3 still sable

[south shuttle]

i’m watching some unboxings and some show a seal and some don’t

[pure garnet]

chip is eating 242w though

[south shuttle]

i purchased both of mine as new

[turbid locust]

ok I went to check on it at 1.5v and it was just frozen after 5 mins of Karhu. Gonna call it a fluke and have it re-running now.

[south shuttle]

@turbid locust i assume they don’t seal them so there’s the option to bios update them inhouse quicker

[turbid locust]

hmmm maybe

[south shuttle]

if there’s no seal you can just pull the mb straight up from it’s packaging without having to care about any 🦭

anyways, it’s to save costs which is understandable, better than to cut into possibly something more important

my non-sealed mbs didn’t come with a single sign of use, no scratches, no fingerprints i could spot so it doesn’t matter, but can be different for other people

[topaz veldt]

Type 2 hyper visors 🤢

[slim pebble]

VMware isn’t type 2

They don’t make a type 2 anything 😂

[topaz veldt]

VMware workstation is type 2

[brave panther]

do you even know what hypervisor type is

[topaz veldt]

Esxi is type 1

[vestal granite]

of all the things to choose to argue with snail about

this is probably one of the things that someone is least likely to win the argument about

[pure garnet]

vmware partner vs misinformation nation

[vestal granite]

some things like maybe there are people who would win that against snail but this one i really am having trouble thinking of who could possibly succeed

[turbid locust]

I could win any argument against 5nail

[vestal granite]

its like someone arguing about check fraud with Frank Abagnale you know

[pure garnet]

didn’t he make half the book up

[vestal granite]

yeah and thats why hes so good at check fraud

[pure garnet]

true

[shell void]

uggg

[topaz veldt]

its not untrue

[slim pebble]

Got it, it has GPU pass through and uses multiple kernel modules, I thought that would change the type

[topaz veldt]

Nah hypervisor type is whether the hypervisor itself is the OS or if its software running on an OS

Way back in the day there was VMware GSX

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware_Server

[slim pebble]

Got it, the kernel modules for it are part of the OS, but it’s still a separate program

[turbid locust]

My favorite hypervisor is WSL

[topaz veldt]

serves its purpose

[topaz veldt]

yeah its just virtualization installed on x86_64 running on a host OS

[turbid locust]

WSL is actually cool af tho

[topaz veldt]

it is

Drives infosec teams insane

waaay long ago the first versoin of "VMware GSX" was called "VMware Server"

so real old heads would be talking "we run VMware Server"

... "we yeah we a lot of VMware servers..."

"no, VMware Server... the product"

Its one of my favorite pop quiz questions during interviews lol

[slim pebble]

It’s the only one that’s GPU accelerated that I know of

[topaz veldt]

Nah most support it, the support is just nuanced

[slim pebble]

That same AI says that HyperV is type 1. No way

[topaz veldt]

it is

hyper-v is a feature enabled in the host OS

[vestal granite]

is there a type 3

[topaz veldt]

yeah, hyper-v is type 1

just like how KVM runs on Ubuntu

The fact that there can be a UI isn't what dictates its type, its how the host hardware is accessed by the virtualization

[topaz veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/turtles-all-the-way-down-gif-18021411

[vestal granite]

ah so like when you're smoking ribs and wrap them in foil. a type 1 hypervisor is like a ribs that can control the temperature directly but a type 2 hypervisor is like when you got a temperatometer that controls the temperatures of the smoker or a timer and suchnot

and the ribs is like transmitting the temperatoure to the temperatometer

[topaz veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/smelling-just-friends-brandon-downum-basic-song-sniffing-gif-24768084

[pure garnet]

what does libvirt count as then

[slim pebble]

Yeah Windows has everything behind the HAL, so it’s about the same. KVM isn’t type 1 is it? I use that and it’s slower than VMware

[topaz veldt]

libvirt is a management pane

[topaz veldt]

It is type 1 - kvm runs in the linux kernel

[pure garnet]

yeah i realized like 30s after sending that it’s a front for qemu or kvm myb

[vestal granite]

are there type 0 hypervisors or is that just called not virtualizing anything

[slim pebble]

Video is bad though, even with the SPICE drivers and such

[nova trout]

my pc is not creating crash dump files

real pain

[topaz veldt]

Depends on the host methods, we use GPU on VDI instances without issue

How to ruin a gpu in 0.1 seconds

[edgy laurel]

people should need to take a class

before touching PC parts

[fringe vigil]

[edgy laurel]

If they fail it, they are banned from building a PC. consoles for life

[fringe vigil]

Who said they’re banned

[brisk jolt]

I agree

Some guy who didnt know what he was doing took his cpu out and gave it backshots

I had to go fix his fuckin problems

Then on the way i got myself the last in stock MSRP 9800x3d from 1st batch

[frank cypress]

pardon?

[brisk jolt]

bent pins

not just a few

A LOT.

[frank cypress]

its ok if the cpu has pins its worthless today

[brisk jolt]

His fucking reason? “It fucked itself”

[frank cypress]

lga for life baby

🙏

[frank cypress]

minimum prerequisite is kindergarten

match the shape to the hole

🙏

[brisk jolt]

i told him its a mobo issue and he went to take out the cpu like he has any spare parts to test with btw

[frank cypress]

💀

[edgy laurel]

i'm thinking more like the basics of how electricity works

[frank cypress]

yknow im kinda impressed how people break parts

I dont think ive ever broken something yet

ive had stuff break, but outside of my control

[edgy laurel]

I haven't either

[brisk jolt]

Im never letting him touch anything again cuz if he does Im not helping him

[turbid locust]

I didnt do anything to break it but the only thing thats broken on me is a lian li 140mm fan

[edgy laurel]

I don't know how you bend PGA pins, or LGA pins for that matter.

[frank cypress]

yeah sometimes shit just wears out and breaks

[arctic bronze]

back when I was in highschool, they tried to but the kids in the class mangled the pc parts so bad

[frank cypress]

cant be helped

[brisk jolt]

I did nothing to break it- I just left it in its packaging and it died
-arctic P14

[frank cypress]

but like, people who cause catastrophic physical damage, how

[fringe vigil]

Mr enu

[arctic bronze]

heat sink crushed, cpu pins scrapped off, capasitors removed, psu crushed, etc

[frank cypress]

I bent a couple pins on my 5950x yet but it was only like, one or two and it was easy to bend back

[edgy laurel]

talking killing something due to negligent handling

[frank cypress]

how does this even happen negligently

[brisk jolt]

me as I laugh at the 4050 laptop kid clowning on my integrated graphics

[frank cypress]

thats not accidental

[brisk jolt]

yeah im just saying my p14 broke without me doing anything

[frank cypress]

hellaur

[brisk jolt]

Thats a real situation of “it fucked itself”

Bending pins accidentally ain't hard

[brisk jolt]

ZTT’s mod exam:

[frank cypress]

oh bending pins sure

ive done it before

[nova trout]

Is this having bent pins an issue? I don’t use it

[frank cypress]

but crushing heatsinks, scrapping off pins and etc?

[nova trout]

I don’t know what it’s for

[edgy laurel]

...just bend it back

[frank cypress]

now that's kinda hard

[frank zealot]

Depending on what the pins are

[brisk jolt]

my gigatroll fan fucking bent the argb pins on my mobo- however the fuck that happened

[nova trout]

Does it cause crashing pc tho I’m investigating crash loop problem

[pure garnet]

gigatroll?

[edgy laurel]

like this kinda thing. its super obvious how you'd fix it, takes 5 seconds. Just do it

[brisk jolt]

the fan that comes with the aorus master GPUs

[pure garnet]

oh i thought you had some actual off brand

[brisk jolt]

lol

[nova trout]

It’s not about bending it back or not
I want to know if it would cause crashes or not

[pure garnet]

my z890 master came with a ram fan

[frank cypress]

im still pissed about this random who joined this server one day that came to ask which screw was for the motherboard..... while attaching a photo with a chart that had said screw labeled in a photo

[nova trout]

Another thing is should this have cooling pads or is the heat spreader fine like that

[edgy laurel]

Who knows, maybe. Not exactly a common header people interact with. RST and SPI_TPM_CS

[frank zealot]

It should have had a thermal pad

[nova trout]

No clue what it is

[nova trout]

Mine didn’t come with any

[frank cypress]

did you get it open box or used or smth

[edgy laurel]

a header for external TPM modules that no one uses

[nova trout]

I also RMA’d my psu waiting for it to come
I’m investigating what’s causing my crash

[frank zealot]

Amazon or something, they're cheap

[nova trout]

Nope brand new

[frank cypress]

hmm

weird

[turbid locust]

errored in seconds wtf

[nova trout]

Ok just wondering if those pins touching each other could be shorting and causing crash or damage to board

[frank zealot]

Look up nvme thermal pads, they come pre cut

[edgy laurel]

No one here is going to know. Best to just fix it and move on.

[frank cypress]

I feel like i can faintly make out the thermal pad residue on the heatsink

[edgy laurel]

what board is that

[frank cypress]

looks like a prime

[nova trout]

X570 pro4

[frank cypress]

oh

[nova trout]

I’m literally at a point I’m investigating every inch of my pc
Hardware and software

I reinstalled os
Tried 10 different driver versions for gpu

[frank cypress]

what cpu do you have

[nova trout]

Ryzen 5 3600x

[frank cypress]

ok nvm

[edgy laurel]

crash how

also that board did come with a thermal pad on that heatsink for the M.2

[nova trout]

https://a.co/d/fLvL2BY

https://a.co/d/d4kXaKs

the 10$ one from arctic
Or weird brand for 5$

[edgy laurel]

if you don't have one, its possible it could be shorting out on the drive

possible

[nova trout]

Board did but by time I used it which is 5 years after use it was dirty and I threw it out
Tbh I didn’t understand what it was for
Now I’m investigating things and I changed gpu paste so I thought maybe ssd needs pad too
I’ll run stress test and check ssd temp in pc in a bit

I was on 2.5 for years

Got nvme last year

[vocal epoch]

Unless you

[frank zealot]

https://a.co/d/1MnAE5v
8$ for 20

[nova trout]

Thing is pc will crash after two minutes of stress test in occt or gaming for 5 minutes

[vocal epoch]

re constantly transferring 100+gb files I doubt it's overheating the m.2, they tend to be very resilient in my exp

[nova trout]

How many would I need

[frank zealot]

1

[nova trout]

How often do you change them

[frank zealot]

Every 5ish years, or when you fuck one up

[nova trout]

Oh fair

[vestal granite]

basically you wont need to replace it until you get a new SSD

[nova trout]

Ye

And they should last a long time if not opened right

[frank zealot]

Maybe

[vestal granite]

i aint no scientist

i aint i aint no materials scientist guy

maybe if like maybe if like its stored in like a chemically inert packaging itll last a while unopened

[frank zealot]

The ssd in my desktop came back after a full power cycle

Wd black sn750

[topaz veldt]

You know what's hilarious? That whole MS KB offing NVMe was like entirely incorrect apparently

[nova trout]

If I have to I’ll get this because it’s one day deliver vs 20 pack is two days

[nova trout]

Jaytwocents had different experience tho

[topaz veldt]

Yeah he's reliable

[edgy laurel]

the view of many now about this Windows 11 + SSD thing is a mass hallucination event. I'm inclined to agree.

[topaz veldt]

yeah same

[nova trout]

There’s truth to everything

[topaz veldt]

I also do not honestly see how it'd discriminate against some NVMe controllers and not others lol

[nova trout]

Racism

[frank zealot]

It's possible, but also some real coincidence happened

[edgy laurel]

Jay has his strong points. Valid technical testing and scientific theory isn't one of them.

[topaz veldt]

The OS sends NVMe to the storage device - it doesn't really care what it is

[nova trout]

There’s a lot of truth to what you just said

[vestal granite]

someone fill me in whats the sitcheation

[nova trout]

What if the OS is on the only nvme drive

[edgy laurel]

He's a BIG bandwagon'er. Story breaking? Better do a talking head video to get people riled up, no research required

[vestal granite]

jayztwocents is my favorite gamersnexus summary tool

[nova trout]

Gamersnexus is cool

[topaz veldt]

It doesn't matter. There's no like "malformed, bad, this is going to destroy your NVMe device" blocks. And its not like WIndows is like "Oh you have a certain NVMe I am going to infinity loop writes to your device" it literally makes no sense

[nova trout]

I wish he had discord for non-paying people

[frank zealot]

Nah

[topaz veldt]

GN is borderline unbearable

[vestal granite]

i appreciate that GN exists but the videos are too long for me to watch in one sitting

[edgy laurel]

GN used to be cool

[topaz veldt]

I like content but GN used to be for super OCD case/thermal testing and now its just a vlog to shit post

[nova trout]

No I’m talking about jay’s most recent video
His pc crashes
He said it’s the kb5067838
Why?
Cuz os is on only nvme and it gets ejected from existence aka instant pc crash cuz no more os

[vestal granite]

i like that he is passionate about the journalism stuff and uses that passion to find stuff people should maybe talk about but its just long videos and idk who the target audience is because it aint me no more u know what i mean

[topaz veldt]

That happens for like 40 different reasons

[nova trout]

Yes I appreciate his work but his videos take forever for me to watch I always try to find summary of it

[topaz veldt]

I RMA'd a couple boards where the NVMe device was "ejecting"

That was like 3 years ago now

Long before this KB

[nova trout]

That’s what I’m saying his most recent video he said the only reason was the kb506

[edgy laurel]

Now I wanna know who was the first person to blame this specific update, kb5067838.

Someone did the update, their drive died, their post somewhere got picked up by a random blog and it snowballed? Somehow linking the two?

[nova trout]

The mobo?

[topaz veldt]

Yes - there was an issue with the PCIe circuitry

[edgy laurel]

yeah well that ain't true

[nova trout]

How did you pinpoint that

[frank zealot]

Am I going to stake my life on it being the kb? Nope.

But I had 2 separate pc's misbehaving just like the reports, and... yeah

[vestal granite]

oh not indexed yet

[frank cypress]

ive been just avoiding the update just in case

I dont even want to deal with it

[topaz veldt]

I have 6 - 7 PCs and I swapped NVMes, motherboards, CPUs, and RAM... proper testing

[edgy laurel]

oh, because its the wrong update. its KB5063878

[frank cypress]

[nova trout]

That’s the spirit
I’m fighting demons without those components so I have to do more brain trauma

[topaz veldt]

Jay spends like 18 secs diagnosing something before hitting the record button on his camera

Ye I just guessed off the top of my head
3878 and 7838 all numbers same thing

[edgy laurel]

(not that I can read any of that)

[nova trout]

I swear I’ve been getting that vibe just don’t feel confident enough to say that

[frank cypress]

1. in OS, the drive got roasted (?) smart data can't be read, smth smth smth

[vestal granite]

but he said its a summary so maybe hes summarizing other peoples stuff

[frank cypress]

japanese is hard my god

its been too long

[topaz veldt]

Jay is famous for just rewording other peoples ideas

[edgy laurel]

so yeah, guy has failure, blames it on the last windows update he did. Everyone runs with it.

[nova trout]

Omae mou shindiru

[nova trout]

[frank cypress]

I cant stand jay, he is probably a chill guy but he makes a 30 sec video into a 10 minute one

[topaz veldt]

I don't mind it for entertainment

[frank cypress]

where he basically says the same thing over and over and over again

I cant man

[topaz veldt]

but he often comes on strong with like "So this is what the issue is..."

[edgy laurel]

better or worse than making a 10 minute video into a 3.5 hour one? 😆

[topaz veldt]

There are so many videos where he literally says in the first 2 mins his thesis, and then 4 minutes in he has disproved his own thesis

[nova trout]

That is so true
His winaero tweaker video should’ve been a short he turned it into a long video

[vestal granite]

https://pc.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/2040183.html

[frank cypress]

ok fair game but I can't watch gn anymore either

[nova trout]

Lmaooooo

[frank cypress]

only tech tuber I can stand is roman

[topaz veldt]

Nah there are plenty that are decent

[frank cypress]

oh and wendell

[topaz veldt]

I really like ZTT

[frank cypress]

explode

[vestal granite]

i hate ztt

[edgy laurel]

Jay routinely says things that are just flat out incorrect. Had he done a little research beforehand it could have been prevented

[vestal granite]

not as a person but as like a spirit i hate him

[frank cypress]

even his name sounds gross, sounds like zitt

like a zitt on your face

[frank zealot]

Why, Zip Tie Tuning is great!

[nova trout]

My favorite tech tuber pc man is Anthony he works for a guy called Linus idk Canada somewhere

[edgy laurel]

But at the same time, he seems to know custom watercooling and does quality builds

[topaz veldt]

The best is when he's like "So... XYZ is whats going on here..." and then 5 mins later hes like "And see guys? This is why I always say test your setup, because it turns out it was something else all together"

[edgy laurel]

(mostly)

[edgy laurel]

lol, disproving himself within his own video

[topaz veldt]

so many times, its so like ugh dude you can edit to save yourself

[frank zealot]

Who is Anthony?

[frank cypress]

wait who is Anthony

[vestal granite]

edit to save yourself and also to save peoples time and to save bandwidth on the internet

[frank cypress]

I haven't watched ltt in like 2 years ong now

[edgy laurel]

dammit Phil

[nova trout]

One more thing do I keep the paper tag thing on nvme or remove it

[vestal granite]

i recently found out that overseas internet cables are apparently not that big i always think of them as like really frickin wide

[frank cypress]

leave it

[topaz veldt]

went ripping with this dude today - we both playedf "try not to ruin the oil pan" on 422

[frank zealot]

Do NOT remove the stickers

[languid nimbus]

Hello guys, I found a 200$ 3060 ti on jawa. It was mined a lot but it did get repasted and checked (and it works)

[edgy laurel]

bro could keep up? lol

[frank cypress]

not a particularly good deal

[topaz veldt]

turbo '

[nova trout]

Quick tube search

[frank cypress]

very avg

[topaz veldt]

had the whole rear deck lid spaced off mod @edgy laurel

[languid nimbus]

Hmm

[nova trout]

Roger thought paper might slow down heat transfer idk

[frank cypress]

and ampere cards are kinda overpriced for 5yo cards

[edgy laurel]

I stand by what I said 😆

[frank zealot]

That's Emily, and she's not at ltt anymore

[languid nimbus]

Amy good 200$ GPUs then?

[vestal granite]

the stickers are metal and spread heat evenly

[nova trout]

Big insulation
The cable itself is ultra small its fiber optic

[edgy laurel]

hasn't been there for.. 2 years?

[topaz veldt]

ehhhh I am a stockish N55 and those 1600cc with a turbski can do pretty serious work

[nova trout]

Bruh that’s Anthony

[vestal granite]

no even with the insulation the overseas cables are like a garden hose width

[frank cypress]

after blackwell came out nothing has been cheap

[fervent elm]

Transgender

[frank zealot]

No, that's Emily

[frank cypress]

tbh

[fervent elm]

Now is emily

[frank cypress]

https://tenor.com/view/tentofate-elmo-elmo-staring-gif-11901234066681497328

[nova trout]

Can you not look at the top portion of the screenshot

[edgy laurel]

you're out of the loop, fyi

[vestal granite]

guys hes thinking madison is who we're talking about

[nova trout]

Oh I don’t know he doesn’t work for them anymore

[frank cypress]

she

[edgy laurel]

She, now

[frank zealot]

Are you actively trying to be stupid

[turbid locust]

Just educate the guy ffs no point in just repeating yourselves

[topaz veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-walk-away-not-happy-michael-scott-gif-11889797

[nova trout]

Oh Madison thought it’s Emily

[frank cypress]

not that they're listening

[edgy laurel]

oh boy..

[vestal granite]

no madison is in the screenshot too so it was confusing the poor man

[frank cypress]

https://tenor.com/view/stressed-gif-7048057395502071840

[nova trout]

Woah what

Why how

[frank cypress]

lost interest in the conversation, peace

[nova trout]

I have to investigate

[blissful lodge]

lol i created this inital reddit post... its so funny to see ppl running with the concept that theres something wrong at LMG that is causing this. tbf was expected from the subreddit anyway if im honest. said multiple times that its normal + expected and then theres people saying "this is so shocking why are they losing so much staff now" when the staff there have been at the company for 10+ years for most of them lmfao

[nova trout]

This is some hidden lore or whatever

[frank zealot]

[edgy laurel]

nope, pretty widely covered topic two years ago...

[vestal granite]

well in the discord it was

[nova trout]

[vestal granite]

for the average LTT viewer i think this couldve flown over everyones head

[edgy laurel]

anywhere LTT is discussed

[nova trout]

Wow had no clue

[vestal granite]

nobody new uses the forums guilty get with the times

[edgy laurel]

then why am I answering is my ryzen 5600 overheating questions from new users weekly!

so tired of it!

[neat shuttle]

Wait i am new i use the forurms

[nova trout]

I just watched this video three days ago https://youtu.be/1EYLzD2GytA?si=KWo5k_n8t9z3YjN3

Feels weird man

[vestal granite]

because your 5600 is overheating apparently

[nova trout]

[frank zealot]

There is no Anthony anymore, She is Emily.

It's not that complicated

[edgy laurel]

Forums, still the premier form of technical discourse, learning and troubleshooting. Archived, indexable, static. There is no substitute and you're simply wrong if you disagree.

[nova trout]

Any info on why Emily doesn’t work for Linus anymore

[turbid locust]

All good. Folks here just did a terrible job of explaining that to you just now but it's alright

[topaz veldt]

tax evasion

[frank zealot]

She never went into specifics

[edgy laurel]

She tells you all about it here https://youtu.be/b-owBhLGaH4

[frank zealot]

But check her youtube

[nova trout]

Ye they were saying Emily and I was thinking of Madison being Emily forgot her name is Madison lol it was a mess

[topaz veldt]

Ashley Madison?

[turbid locust]

Yeah all good

[nova trout]

And I thought the US have it tough with taxes

[nova trout]

Ty

[fringe vigil]

SILKSONG out in 4 days wtfffff

[nova trout]

What about this it says it comes with pads https://a.co/d/ecN6g7D

Maybe it’s better than stock one I have

[edgy laurel]

If you use that, you won't be able to use the included heatsink which may look weird, depending on if you care

[nova trout]

Idk the stock one ?

Wdym included

[edgy laurel]

yes, that matches the board

[nova trout]

Gpu goes on top of it

Also there silver color one

[edgy laurel]

then make sure the aftermarket one isn't too tall

[nova trout]

Ye there’s only the way of getting it and testing

Idk how else

I mean stock one already on level with pci slot

[edgy laurel]

most people wouln't consider getting a different cooler alltogether so its usually not a question anyone has

[nova trout]

Ight I’ll stick to finding pads that ship tomorrow

[languid nimbus]

Funny how a 2011 PS3 I got and passed thru 2 generations that outlived some people can run GTA 5 and FIFA 14

[nova trout]

What’s your opinion on copper spreader

https://a.co/d/aDU2CtV

[edgy laurel]

games that came out 2 years after it..

[nova trout]

Oh laptop 💀

Nvm

[wise bear]

is catsoup saying silly things again

[edgy laurel]

i mean, they'd work. basically just stick on sheets of copper

[turbid locust]

@shell void I dont think my 9800X3D likes 6400c26. Getting very strange freezing at voltages the sticks should be able to handle no issue. Trying c28

[nova trout]

Not same size no?

[edgy laurel]

2280 is 2280

[nova trout]

The spreader

Has to reach screw

[edgy laurel]

22mm wide, 80mm long

[nova trout]

Nope doesn’t work

[edgy laurel]

that thing doesn't actually get screwed down, it just uses what is likely a thing thermal adhesive strip to stick on to the drive

might even still be able to use the stock heatsink with it, but you'd still want a thermal pad. all of this is unnecessary... that drive likely never gets hot enough. you just want a thermal pad

[shell void]

yikes

[wise bear]

yeah im not impressed w/ the p10

[nova trout]

I’m just trying to find something that arrives tomorrow
Found two for five bucks

[wise bear]

I dunno if they need to let it cook in public or if they really did just drop the ball this hard

[nova trout]

And there’s twenty for 8 but takes two days

[edgy laurel]

I'd love it if I could take dark shots with my 16 Pro Max and it not turn them into daytime like that

this has helped. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/project-indigo/id6742591546

[nova trout]

I’m on 16 pro and I hate it
Trash battery
Underwhelming camera vs other flagships
Other problems I won’t write for sake of typing

[edgy laurel]

it does such unnatural things with night shots

the stock camera app

[turbid locust]

you must get like 12 hours screen on time every day

[edgy laurel]

i configured the shutter key to launch the Indigo camera instead

[turbid locust]

I have a charging limit of 80% and have like 40% by end of day

[nova trout]

Nah normal use bruh

[nova trout]

Same limit 80%

[edgy laurel]

i'm set exactly the same

[nova trout]

Never charge more than 80

You will fry the internal combustion ringtone

[edgy laurel]

twice since I set my 80% limit, i've woken up to it at 100%. I wonder if it does that on its own periodically to keep the battery exercised

[wise bear]

it do

[edgy laurel]

makes sense

[nova trout]

It has done that sometimes for me
It got me annoyed

[turbid locust]

Yeah it does that to calibrate basically

[wise bear]

in settings it says it periodically charges to 100% just to keep reporting accurate

[nova trout]

But now I understand it needs to workout

[turbid locust]

it has to know what 100% is to charge to 80%

[edgy laurel]

oh does it, ok didn't see that

[nova trout]

Fair

[wise bear]

mac stop saying things faster than me

[nova trout]

Mac has multiple faces so faster processing

[turbid locust]

Im playing skate 3 with a controller rn

[wise bear]

yee I think they only added that bit with the last updoot or something

[turbid locust]

I have to lean forward and alt tab to type here rn lol

[nova trout]

Hax

[shell void]

my 13 pro max

[edgy laurel]

with my 12PM, i charged before bed and manually pulled it around 80-85% for its whole life. Battery was at 92% health when I traded it in. 4.5 years later

[shell void]

i cooked this phone

[turbid locust]

we dont talk about my 12PM battery...

[edgy laurel]

yeah you had a dud or just fucked it up

michael is headed that way lmao

[shell void]

my phone is exhausted

[turbid locust]

my 12PM battery health dropped to 79% in the first 6 months and stayed there for the following 3 years

[shell void]

the lenses get filled with condensation, the battery health is weak, the display has burn in, and the charging port isnt reliable

ive been rockin wireless charging while waiting for the 17 pro max xd

[shell void]

down to 79 in 6 months is actually bananas

[nova trout]

Do you use both sides pads and what thickness do you usually need

[edgy laurel]

just one where it would make contact with the heatsink

no idea on thickness

[nova trout]

Roger what thickness

[nova trout]

Cool

[edgy laurel]

never had to buy one, they come on the board lol

[nova trout]

Ye got rid of mine they were dirty

Maybe I shouldn’t have 💀

[edgy laurel]

guess which one is the SATA drive.. 🤣

[nova trout]

23

[edgy laurel]

ole' reliable 860 Evo

[nova trout]

[turbid locust]

imagine still having SATA drives in your rig

[edgy laurel]

no reason to replace it

[young void]

Can fit so many dvds/music/isos in that bad boii

[edgy laurel]

huge-ass fucking case

[frank zealot]

Lol I never tuned

[nova trout]

I upgraded to nvme and kept 2.5 there idk

[young void]

I trust sparks isnt putting the latest multi-player titles on it so no biggie (even then would just be alittle longer load times)

[languid nimbus]

My cat decided to purr for no reason

[edgy laurel]

na, thats only cold storage/media. games are on the NVMe E: drive

[nova trout]

They have their reasons

[frank zealot]

I have 2 (technically 3, but one doesn't count)

[young void]

Still tons of life left

[edgy laurel]

yeah it still does its job, seemed silly to replace it

[young void]

Well now you have to pet it

[edgy laurel]

so.. is 520k GB high for reads?

what are you total read counts on your SSD's?

[young void]

Varys but to be absolutely honest I dont use my pc much in the grand scheme of things and got some drives used

[edgy laurel]

sheesh those drives are barely used

[frank zealot]

I may have to go back to the horizontal mount on my gpu.

That'd be annoying

[young void]

But also im not fair to the avg users to compare most will have more hours/use. My kids make it hard to enjoy my hobbys at least while I have a baby the toddlers ain't so bad

[edgy laurel]

for now

😉

[young void]

Oooofs

[frank zealot]

Aio tubes are messing with vertical

[young void]

It be like that sometimes

[nova trout]

Do these work for nvme I like how much quantity I get for price

also i think i called it earlier. So far all my effort with a 6400 tune this week might’ve been for nothing. I swapped to my 6000c26 kit and… it’s no longer happy

[wise bear]

The first time I watched that vid I cried laughing for like 20 minutes

[edgy laurel]

speaking of crying laughing, 5nail did you watch the cheap muscle car challenge

[wise bear]

ayo we glissin'

[topaz veldt]

my son and I were watching it we got to them firing up the big block ford w/ the fox body jump start

[edgy laurel]

when cleet is painting the stars on the hood and keeps hitting George's hand I was dying

[topaz veldt]

Didn't see that yet

[edgy laurel]

oh, you'll see then

these guys are just comedy gold

[nova trout]

This is just silly and ridiculous

[edgy laurel]

Jimmy and Mr. Sam make the best pick, btw

[topaz veldt]

"yo dude your rust is sparking"

[edgy laurel]

that Thunderbird did look pretty badass

[topaz veldt]

my son the whole time "Pick the nascar, pick the nascar"

[topaz veldt]

"ohhhhhhhhh so they need something that is like a little be good at everything?"

"Yeah bud, like that prob"
"They should pick the firebird then. Its fast. Its tall. And it has a magic color"

We got 'em a unit

rofl thats a hungry pony boys

[edgy laurel]

ngl, i've seen Vice Grip Garage mentioned a ton but never watched a single thing. guys got quite a hoarding problem

[turbid locust]

whole week tuning 1:1 when this boots

[topaz veldt]

yeah dude its a fucking mess lol

its kind of insane they all run

[edgy laurel]

yeah, that was wild

[topaz veldt]

booting is not booty tho

[turbid locust]

what

[topaz veldt]

you need full booty

[wise bear]

give it that full chooch

[topaz veldt]

like butt implants for the hdv

[turbid locust]

type

[wise bear]

what, like bulbous wifi connectors?

or are we just inflating random heatsinks

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel I think my fave is LS George

[edgy laurel]

like, character?

[topaz veldt]

just his commentary

[rough ember]

Can someone help me w a silly question

[wise bear]

only if you ask it

[edgy laurel]

dudes got energy, for sure

[vale cosmos]

what is it

[topaz veldt]

the blazer is so dumb

but he's like all-in on it

[edgy laurel]

yeah, you see both times he tried to wheelie that Fiero and almost died BOTH times? lol

[topaz veldt]

ugh yes that was so wtf

the wheelie fiero

I dunno why but I cannot be serious about fieros - but there was a dude out today cruising one and he was very serious

it was clean... but bro was so serious

[edgy laurel]

I can't tell you the last time I saw one on the road

[topaz veldt]

I saw one today!

[edgy laurel]

yeah thats crazy

[topaz veldt]

red (duh) with black wheels

I always think of them as a like a joke/novelty

but dudes are serious

[rough ember]

okay so basically i have the msib650 p wifi
want to buy one of those pcie fans for the gpu (even though i DONT need it at all )
just wondering if theres any that wouldnt be compatible

[topaz veldt]

get an oscillating fan

[edgy laurel]

in reality, its kinda like an AW11 MR2

but Murica

[topaz veldt]

its so not an MR2

[vale cosmos]

if your talking about the ones that just use a pcie bracket for mounting, i dont think youd have any issues

[rough ember]

yesyes those

[vale cosmos]

oh you mean replacing your fans?

[rough ember]

wrong image

without the rgb obv

[topaz veldt]

Did you hear the random saxophone in the background? Time stamped https://youtu.be/RPNnNMzRVbk?si=4KLaSS2HuApnIkU0&t=2182

[vale cosmos]

i mean yea that shouldnt have any problem

[arctic bronze]

iv seen those, I heard they make ur cooling worse

[rough ember]

do they have a specific name i google for or

[edgy laurel]

probably music in the shop

[rough ember]

do they? using a nzxt hflow 5 and a 4070 ti 3 fans

[topaz veldt]

but its like.... skat jazz lol

[arctic bronze]

its bc it fights the air flow ur gpu is already moving

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel only sam could tuck in a hoodie lol

[rough ember]

tbh barely anything i play even gets temps above 80 so if i dont buy a rlly shitty one it should be fine no?

fans only start spinning at like 50-60°C

[edgy laurel]

similar size, layout and age lol

[topaz veldt]

except its a fucking GM 3100 which is like... a bag of shitlol

[tropic idol]

Hi, would a surface book 2 with an i7 8650u, gtx 1060 and 16gb ram be bad for 220 bucks

[rough ember]

and it would look kinda sick
and i could buy one that'd be fat enough for gpu sag worst case slip a few coins under it

[edgy laurel]

@merry stirrup @frosty prism

[arctic bronze]

i mean, its weak

what are you wanting to do with it

[topaz veldt]

Confession @edgy laurel when I was first tuning BMW engines on standalones I used GM 3100 ignition coils with spark plug wires... into my "Coil on plug" cylinder head lol

[edgy laurel]

I used LS3 coils as upgrades for my Renesis rotary, lol

[topaz veldt]

but you were not COP lol

[tropic idol]

It's for my gf to play Sims and maybe Minecraft on it, whenever I'm using our main rig. A 1060 and 8th gen i7 should be more than adequate, it's either that for 200 bucks or a intel pentium laptop take your pick

[edgy laurel]

Na. I mean there was a wire from each coil to the plug

[topaz veldt]

ya coil near plug, etc.

Trying to find a photo of this haggard thing

[hot acorn]

does it have to be a laptop?

[arctic bronze]

it can play them, just keep ur expectations reasonable lol

[tropic idol]

She would prefer so yes, we've already got a 3080ti and 5800x3d rig she wants a laptop for herself on the side

[hot acorn]

if that is what she is used to she will be very disappointed with the surface book

[edgy laurel]

company made a bracket and everything. better spark was a reliability upgrade for those problem prone motors.

[tropic idol]

100% I wasn't expecting it to run anything AAA just lighter games and older triple a games, she also does digital art, so considering it's a 4k, touchscreen tablet as well as a laptop I'd say for 200 bucks it's not a bad bet

[topaz veldt]

thats way too fancy

[hot acorn]

okay that makes more sense

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel found it.....potato camera - those are ATX Molex connectors lol

[hot acorn]

@tropic idol https://www.ebay.com/itm/204810605270

[edgy laurel]

holy shit, is that all stuffed in that cavity between the cowl and one of the shock towers?

[topaz veldt]

Yah lol

[hot acorn]

idk what you budget is but this might be a good option compared to the surface book

[edgy laurel]

that truly looks like a fire hazard LMAO

[topaz veldt]

nah its all pulsed grounds

it was just... like... 20 year old me engineering lol

[tropic idol]

That's 1000 USD I'll link the one I saw for 200, it's got a couple missing keycaps but I'm happy enough replacing them https://ebay.us/m/5uVyYS

[hot acorn]

@tropic idol sorry just read back

[edgy laurel]

the best kind

[tropic idol]

All good that's the laptop I had in question hence why I was saying it's actually a pretty good deal for the price

[topaz veldt]

up at the firewall - that pic is from when I got the stock coils to finally work lol

[hot acorn]

let me do some reseach real quick

[tropic idol]

Linus had a review on that model a few years back

[edgy laurel]

man is that like early days of turbo on that motor. had it been opened up yet?

[topaz veldt]

waaaaaaaaaay early dude I was like one of the first in the country to do this shit lol

I had to write code for megasquirt to be able to run the BMW 60-2 crank trigger wheel and handle the GM DIS ignition coils

megasquirt, lol. used to know a guy that had an all DIY MS setup for his turbo miata. was very proud of it

[topaz veldt]

yeah man I sold them 🙂

specifically for BMWs OBD1/OBD2

17 years ago lol

[nova trout]

Can I stack these

https://a.co/d/4PR8l0q

Like if I need one mm can I use two

[indigo walrus]

Technically, yes, but the more you have between the computer chip you're trying to cool and the cooling surface, the less effective they'll be. Stacking them won't damage anything... it'll just reduce their effectiveness.

[hot acorn]

@tropic idol I dm'd you a laptop

[edgy laurel]

[topaz veldt]

[edgy laurel]

[topaz veldt]

they said water temp was like 270 lol what

[edgy laurel]

yeah thats bad

[topaz veldt]

it looked so good

[edgy laurel]

it really did!

[topaz veldt]

they should 20v swap it and get it back going

the C4 is just doing the work

ha "that thing didn't even overheat yet how is that a hot rod, buncha nerds"

[edgy laurel]

the C4 is like a spaceship compared to the competition

[topaz veldt]

yeah def

I was like "thats cheating" and my son was confused

I was trying to explain EFI to him lol

[edgy laurel]

I like a clean C4, ngl

[topaz veldt]

ehhh

[edgy laurel]

yeah buddy

[topaz veldt]

nashville isn't ready for cleetus

[edgy laurel]

[topaz veldt]

hahaha "So turns out hte temp gauge was right?" "I mean it was honestly fine it was like 230" lol fine!?

[edgy laurel]

[topaz veldt]

if my green car goes over 205 I am squirming

[edgy laurel]

[topaz veldt]

[edgy laurel]

I love those wheels lol

[topaz veldt]

fuckin vw guys

[turbid locust]

this new skate game coming up better not suck

[nova trout]

It’s for nvme drive idk what thickness I’ll need

[topaz veldt]

sigh

[edgy laurel]

shh, don't pin kirashi we'll get yelled at for talkin about cars 😆 ❤️

[topaz veldt]

its not cars

look at that jpeg compression above guilty

[nova trout]

Also is this normal

[edgy laurel]

if it came off there, it goes back on there. not really sure how else to answer that

[topaz veldt]

rofl my lord the tires

[nova trout]

The standoffs didn’t come installed I had to add them five years later

I could’ve messed up

[hot acorn]

check the manual or watch a build with that motherboard

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel they just .... front ended the camaro lol

[nova trout]

Ty I’ll do that

[arctic bronze]

they go in 1 way, if its backwards, it wont go in right

[arctic bronze]

you can move the standoffs to different holes, they are not built into the case

[indigo walrus]

Cars contain so many electronics these days that I wouldn't bat an eye lol. There's #cars for dedicated vehicle chit chat (like if you have a vehicle project you want to discuss), otherwise no yellin' over here.

[hot acorn]

you should be able to remove that stand offs and move them over

[topaz veldt]

You should check out Cleetus Muscle Car Challenege Part 1... its... a mess

[edgy laurel]

i'm confused, is that board narrower than ATX?

[topaz veldt]

optical illusion i think

[nova trout]

Like move the board ? Because there’s no holes in the board to line up

[hot acorn]

no the case has other holes for the standoffs

[edgy laurel]

there doesn't appear to be a standoff hole in the top right

[arctic bronze]

you gotta take out the motherboard, then you can unscrew the standoffs to screw them in the correct spots

[edgy laurel]

so there would be nothing to line it up with

[hot acorn]

yo actually wtf is this board

[nova trout]

Right

[nova trout]

Ok because last I remember one side doesn’t line up with standoffs

[edgy laurel]

this is it in that corner of the board

I hate it

[nova trout]

Like if I move it right like you said my io would be too far in

[nova trout]

I have those

[hot acorn]

this is not standard atx so you did the best you could

[nova trout]

Rip

Every time I touch the ram I feel it moving it doesn’t feel okay

Can I put any cushion ?

[edgy laurel]

A normal width ATX board has holes there.

[hot acorn]

it should be fine just make sure to hold down the board if you unlpu the 24 pin

[topaz veldt]

I think they are for self-tappers

[edgy laurel]

@topaz veldt

that X570 Pro4 is just weirdly narrow

[hot acorn]

I agree. deck screw it to the case

[topaz veldt]

ha yeah it is - missing the right hand screw holes

[nova trout]

Use self tapping screws gg

[edgy laurel]

meanwhile mine goes over

[rough ember]

guys i have a ryzen 7 7700x rn what if i take it out put a 9800x3d in it
and use the 7700x to make a micro atx build with the integrated graphics how insane would that be

[topaz veldt]

its perforated so you can snap it off

[hot acorn]

how much money did asrock save by making this board a 1/4 inch narrower?

[nova trout]

They lost a lot of customers that’s for sure

[topaz veldt]

how the fuck did that cop let them go in that thing lol

[edgy laurel]

Cleetus effect lol

[nova trout]

usb ports on their boards die a lot it was a nightmare for am4 boards they made

[hot acorn]

is that an m.2 slot next to the ram?

[edgy laurel]

yes and I love it, so easy to get to. I didn't have to waste an extra 5 minutes of my life pulling out a massive GPU and putting it back in to add a drive

[hot acorn]

I love the taichi boards i have one in my server

[edgy laurel]

we don't talk about how the x/b800 series Taichi's look like ass

x/b600 boards like mine were the last good looking Taichi's

[hot acorn]

what boards never heard of them..

i run a crosshair viii dark hero currently

[topaz veldt]

like what is he even doing any more

[vale cosmos]

😭

[edgy laurel]

wtf are the polka dots and pinstripe

[topaz veldt]

those are speed holes

Those are vents to let the extra voltage out so it doesn't damage the CPU

[hot acorn]

dimple die you're motherboard

[edgy laurel]

they've redeemed themselves a bit with the X870 Taichi Creator

[edgy laurel]

oh and look, no longer EATX

[indigo walrus]

Louis is more or less single-handedly trying to do what the FTC / Canadian Consumer Protection entities continue refusing to do on behalf of all consumers. Some of it is a bit off the rails but... it's coming from a good place.

[hot acorn]

I just finished my all asus pc

[topaz veldt]

But like.... its so ....

[edgy laurel]

gets.. gets what?

[topaz veldt]

He's fucking ranting about gym memberships now

[brisk jolt]

Great, whats left is to throw it out

[edgy laurel]

yeah i'm probably never going to watch him. i don't need his brand of drama

[topaz veldt]

He and GN should team up

make a channel called "F everything"

and like... rant about waffles... tostitos.... star bucks.... pep boys.... and SK/Hynix

[edgy laurel]

limp bizket made a song about that

[hot acorn]

can anyone tell me why my photos sent from my phone show up as these link?

[topaz veldt]

bizket excuse me?

[edgy laurel]

whatever!

[topaz veldt]

Limp Bizket is the swedish version

[edgy laurel]

Bizkit, excuuuuuse me

the whole first verse of Break Stuff is GN's outlook on everything

[topaz veldt]

but like if performed by 3 Doors Down

[edgy laurel]

HAHA

[topaz veldt]

like fake rage attitude

It's just one of those days without you baaaaaby

[edgy laurel]

proud of that one aren't you

[hot acorn]

I've always thought the asus extreme board are beautiful.

[topaz veldt]

🙂

[wraith steeple]

AI Top vs. ProArt Creator vs. Taichi Creator

[edgy laurel]

oh here we go

[topaz veldt]

Guilty have you ever seen Blink 182

[edgy laurel]

Gigabyte has the best looking boards right now, just saying it

[edgy laurel]

I've been to scary few concerts, big regret

[topaz veldt]

ah man - well, one of the most disappointing in person bands

[wraith steeple]

I can't lie, Gigabyte actually cooked this gen as the cool kids would say

[hot acorn]

they look good but I've had nothing but problems with my b550 ac pro

[topaz veldt]

Jigabyte is actually tops for X870/E

the wifi 7 ice dogs are sick

[hot acorn]

Bluetooth drivers not working and doing anything with fan curves sucks

[edgy laurel]

this one is kinda insane

[hot acorn]

yooooo

[topaz veldt]

b550 bro can antique tags for that thing

[topaz veldt]

its like a memory bread box

[edgy laurel]

you're not wrong

Z890 AORUS XTREME AI TOP

[topaz veldt]

"We know your memory is not going to hit 8000 so we tucked it inside of an oven where you can't hear it sobbing"

[edgy laurel]

Breadboxless version

[topaz veldt]

but now we can hear the cries

[hot acorn]

I'm still on am4

5800x3d and 3090

[topaz veldt]

we don't tolerate that kind of speech here

This is decent imho

[edgy laurel]

the best of 2021

[edgy laurel]

my eyes

[hot acorn]

I'm boycotting 40 and 50 series

[shell saddle]

AM4 gang I guess hah

[topaz veldt]

Travis Kelce asked Taylor Swift out using an AM4 PC

[wraith steeple]

X870E Elite is probably their best X870/E board in terms of price/performance

[topaz veldt]

I am boycotting Veyrons

[topaz veldt]

stop it

[hot acorn]

like the bugatti?

[edgy laurel]

i get this joke. its mean. i like it.

[topaz veldt]

Yes that one

[topaz veldt]

its a cloaked slice

[shell saddle]

5800X running a decent OC 175w and a 6900XT ocf running at 445w

[hot acorn]

we have the same cooler. is that the 360 or 420?

[edgy laurel]

I too had a 5800x and a 3090. now that system is 3090-less and a backup rig

[shell saddle]

The 360.

[nova trout]

Apparently I had mine on bios switch mode

[hot acorn]

i have the 420 cuz it fit in my case and was like $20 more

[shell saddle]

I couldn't find the 420 locally for my buddy I built this for. Unfortunate but it's already quiet enough

[wraith steeple]

Lian Li 011D EVO?

[shell saddle]

Evo XL

[wraith steeple]

Ah figured it was one of the two

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel can I show you something scary

[shell saddle]

I'm actually really happy with that case I'll buy one for myself personally

(this was more of a hand me down build to a good buddy of mine plus some upgrades and parts changes)

[topaz veldt]

This is Mark Hoppus from 2000ish and today

[wary panther]

That’s crazy

[hot acorn]

I just got the asus power supply to finish it yesterday.
