[turbid locust]

peak

[merry stirrup]

use pyhwinfo

[turbid locust]

I will likely keep the AYW OC as “my LGA1700 board”

[merry stirrup]

@hoary hatch if you’re up can you screenshot this program too please

[turbid locust]

unless it ends up sitting like my AM4 hardware then I’d rather sell it to someone who’d use it

[merry stirrup]

i have am4 lying around but it’s okay cause there’s bdie in it

[turbid locust]

I have one DDR4 kit left and it’s S8B mid bin

[merry stirrup]

mines also mid but a neat uncommon bin

[pure garnet]

still not pulling everything

[merry stirrup]

3466 16-16-16

[turbid locust]

3600 14-15-15

[turbid locust]

wtf

[merry stirrup]

yeah deadass let me find the packaging

my bad 3400 flat 16

[turbid locust]

That’s so cursed lol

[merry stirrup]

it won’t

some of its platform dependant i think

[merry stirrup]

they do decently i mean it’s bdie

[turbid locust]

Yeah

[merry stirrup]

mac we might have potential saice

[pure garnet]

there we go

[merry stirrup]

look at the dimm resistances in his pic they’re way diff

[hoary hatch]

I'm in bed unfortunately

[merry stirrup]

maybe we should copy the z890 auto resisterances

[hoary hatch]

Oh lga1851 time

[pure garnet]

the 4 dimmer auto resistance

[merry stirrup]

yus

[merry stirrup]

just random thoughts cause i feel as though that’s all it can be atp

[turbid locust]

LGA1851 is genuinely one of the most uninteresting platforms I’ve ever seen lol

[hoary hatch]

I'm so fucking tired of the YouTube app being broken

[merry stirrup]

i’ve tried like 15 documented voltage combos and basically got the same result every time which leaves resistances

[pure garnet]

the problem is that there's about 4 resources on earth to tune it with

so i'm flying blind

[turbid locust]

afaik Mpower is just termination/resistance hell

[pure garnet]

i'll probably just lower trfc if i can then call it a day

[merry stirrup]

i feel as though the edge will be no different

[turbid locust]

like 8800 posts with one stick

Mpower has per dimm termination options tho

Idk if the edge does

[merry stirrup]

it does

[pure garnet]

time to see what arrow lake can do in league of legends

[merry stirrup]

my b650 tomahawk did i’d be shocked if this didn’t

alright well termination hell time

thanks for the sauce i’ll let you know

[pure garnet]

wow arl is a regression in league

it's over

[merry stirrup]

watch this guy change my life

[pure garnet]

only 680-700fps

[merry stirrup]

can you usb stick pyhwinfo to your bench rig with lga 1700

[turbid locust]

running that shit on the daily rn bro

[merry stirrup]

LOL my bad

[turbid locust]

I just have Ethernet LOL

[pure garnet]

this is just my am5 setup again that's funny

same primaries at least

[turbid locust]

behold.

[pure garnet]

oh i got a working copy of asrock timing configuator

this is way nicer

[ripe flicker]

what's the next thing to do?

[merry stirrup]

curiously your resistances are different than mine by default

which i mean it makes sense ig but

[pure garnet]

i mean are you trying 8200 or 8000

[merry stirrup]

8000, but i don’t think that’s going to make a huge difference cause it’s only 1 speed bin difference

[pure garnet]

he is on a cudimm pcb

[merry stirrup]

that’s true

[ripe flicker]

y'all I already got a windows installer what do I do next?

[thick frost]

enable EXPO then boot to the installer and install it

[ripe flicker]

where do I enable expo?

[thick frost]

Very good

[ripe flicker]

how do I boot to the installrr?

[turbid locust]

why would you enable DOCP before installing windows lmfao

[thick frost]

Why wouldn’t you?

[turbid locust]

Potential instability

[thick frost]

Especially noting it’s ddr4

[pure garnet]

i don't think the 1mhz is making a difference

[ripe flicker]

LMAO🥀

[turbid locust]

Doesn’t really matter what kinda ram it is

[ripe flicker]

guys how do I boot to the installer?

[pure garnet]

wtf is a faspeed ssd

[thick frost]

To each their own, that’s just how I do it

[ripe flicker]

gng im sorry I got no clue I got this from my older sis and im js slowly upgrading

[turbid locust]

I mean it doesn’t really matter in their case cause it’s so slow but in the instance where you have a kit that could be on the edge of what your cpu or board could do, enabling it could cause errors during windows install lol

[pure garnet]

yeah like i installed windows an unstable xmp profile

and for all i know my os could be cooked but im too lazy to fix it

[nova trout]

Put it on flash drive

[merry stirrup]

also are we counting this stable

[ripe flicker]

where do I find that

[thick frost]

I’ve just personally never had any windows install issues with xmp enabled from as slow as 1600 to my current pc with 6000

[nova trout]

Troll reported banned

[turbid locust]

probably

[vestal granite]

an amazing new trick email spammers have discovered, if they email my gmail but use google.com instead of gmail.com, I get an email from googlemail.com (owned by Google) containing the entire original email's contents (and all external media etc) saying it failed to be delivered to my gmail address

[ripe flicker]

im not trolling I genuinely don't know😥😥

[pure garnet]

cudimm z790 meta

[turbid locust]

6 hours Karhu on Intel is like 12 on AMD so

[nova trout]

Oh you’re being legit lol

[turbid locust]

It doesn’t even support it lmfao

[thick frost]

So that’s what that fucking thing is

[pure garnet]

oh something on my pc was actually corrupted

dism stopped to download an update

[nova trout]

I don’t think you did it right

[ripe flicker]

do I have to unplug? the usb?

[pure garnet]

is bypass mode just default then

[nova trout]

@ripe flicker did you mount it to the flash drive or just flop it on there

[nova trout]

Did you just copy paste ?

[ripe flicker]

no

[vestal granite]

yes and the spam gets marked as important in my inbox

[merry stirrup]

yes but his dimms aren’t ckd

[turbid locust]

I would assume so. The platform literally doesn’t have a separate clock driver.

[ripe flicker]

I waited for ts and clicked finish after, and it all says done

then I removed it cuz it says done

it's in

[nova trout]

You just showed me bios pic now back to windows update utility so quickly doesn’t make sense

[thick frost]

Ah ive never seen that part, just the “it’s been failed to deliver” with the official google faq pages at the bottom

[nova trout]

Ok that’s good to know

[ripe flicker]

this was like 30mins ago btw

[nova trout]

Ye needed more context

[vestal granite]

and for me its now happening on multiple different gmail addresses

[ripe flicker]

cuz last night my pc won't boot up and it kept showing this

and people r telling me to make a windows installer usb and I did just that

[thick frost]

I super just need the get a new email, been using the same one for like 14 years

[pure garnet]

you might have to disable secure boot

but no i dont know where it is on that board

[nova trout]

Well is your ssd of hdd on mbr or gpt

[ripe flicker]

what is mbr and gpt? im genuinely sorry cuz I really don't know what those are

[nova trout]

From this I think ssd is gpt but flash drive is mbr

I could be wrong tho

[ripe flicker]

I have a kingston 1tb m.2 nvme

[nova trout]

Can you boot into windows for a sec ?

[ripe flicker]

is that a flash drive?

[nova trout]

Bruh

Can you boot into windows

[ripe flicker]

oh it's ssd

[nova trout]

That’s your ssd bro

[ripe flicker]

wait I'll try

[ripe flicker]

yeah ik I got confused for a bit mb mb

[nova trout]

Once you do open disk manager

Post screenshot

[pure garnet]

someone actually did your same setup on an apex @turbid locust

[ripe flicker]

first time getting this image btw

[turbid locust]

lol link?

[pure garnet]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7NsWLt8Xv8

[nova trout]

@ripe flicker can you start a post here and I’ll help you there so we don’t clog up chat with this specific problem

https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1027757333117415424

[ripe flicker]

did I successfully do it?

don't mind the lines I think my monitor is broken

[nova trout]

You’re in it ye

[ripe flicker]

sure

[nova trout]

No need

You just booted into the flash drive

Done

gg wp was close

[ripe flicker]

oh

it's done?

[ripe flicker]

I just made it🥀

[nova trout]

Well that was your problem right booting into the drive

I thought perhaps the partition was mbr for the flash drive therefore the bios didn’t recognize it

[pure garnet]

you need to go through the installer

and reinstall windows or repair the other install

[nova trout]

If you don’t have any files nuke it all and install clean

No mercy

[ripe flicker]

is there a Philippines in time and currency format?

[nova trout]

Oh do you know what your windows is

Like the one your machine already has

Is it pro or home

[ripe flicker]

it's 11

[nova trout]

Right 11 pro or home

[pure garnet]

just pick pro

it'll grab the key and adjust accordingly if you're wrong

[nova trout]

You choose pro and you have home it’s not going to be licensed

[ripe flicker]

I think home because there is a watermark and because it recently expired

[nova trout]

Umm

Then it’s neither

Just pick pro

[turbid locust]

Damn his SA and IMC voltage almost auto’s the exact same as mine

[ripe flicker]

oh no everything will be deleted😭

[nova trout]

You never had a license I suppose

[pure garnet]

or pick repair my pc

and it won't delete everything

[nova trout]

If you care about files repair

[ripe flicker]

no difference?

[nova trout]

Personally I find nuking everything clean install to be only solution to my windows problems
But that means you have to move files to another drive

[nova trout]

Wdym

[ripe flicker]

like nothin else to worry abt w repair my pc?

[nova trout]

Do you have important files on there you can’t download again

Like games can be downloaded again

Browser if you’re synced you can login everything comes back

Pictures and whatever no

[turbid locust]

@pure garnet @merry stirrup I’m really scared of retrain stability lmao

[ripe flicker]

I'd honestly do not want to reinstall a lot of stuff because starlink is quite slow rn..

cuz I had a lot of stuff installed, like games browser discord and a bunch of other stuff that would be a hassle to download 1 by 1

[pure garnet]

yeah i restarted my pc like 8 times to see if i was good

hopefully it sticks for me

[nova trout]

Repair. Done.

[turbid locust]

I’m super paranoid about it

[pure garnet]

consider that repair literally cannot make the pc any less unusable since it's actively broken right now

[ripe flicker]

thanks

[pure garnet]

i wonder if my other pc is actually karhu stable or not

apparently 6400mt is the upper limit for alder lake on 4 dimm boards generally

[nova trout]

I read once on the internet Only real solution for windows problems is Linux

[ripe flicker]

btw this lines

do y'all think this is a monitor issue or a gpu issue

[merry stirrup]

yolo. try a restart and find out

a soft restart

[ripe flicker]

also do I just?

[turbid locust]

I want to enjoy the bliss rn

[nova trout]

I think that’s the monitor but easy check is connect tv and see

[merry stirrup]

attempting 8400 to spite you

[turbid locust]

LOL

[ripe flicker]

sure

[pure garnet]

9200

[merry stirrup]

this ain’t z890

[ripe flicker]

do i just start

[pure garnet]

:\

[nova trout]

Choose cmd prompt

Type sfc/scannow

[ripe flicker]

how do I change language🥀

[pure garnet]

booting into alder lake for a 3rd time today

[nova trout]

Actually what’s screen before that

[ripe flicker]

I can't understand minecraft language

[nova trout]

Click troubleshoot

[nova trout]

No you’re in advanced options

[ripe flicker]

i clicked troubleshoot

[nova trout]

Before you go there there’s that option or reset

[nova trout]

You see how it says reset your pc or see advanced options

[nova trout]

Advanced

[ripe flicker]

wait i accidentally shutdown my pc

[nova trout]

[nova trout]

Bro

BEFORE advanced options

Go back post picture

[ripe flicker]

before advance options

[nova trout]

That’s command prompt

[ripe flicker]

is this

[nova trout]

That’s not before advanced options
That’s within advanced options

[ripe flicker]

wait I'll send u a video

[nova trout]

Ok windows is fake news

[pure garnet]

honestly i'd just reinstall

[ripe flicker]

ah damn I'll js do it then

[nova trout]

I have a solution
Remove flash drive
Boot into os
Go to settings then somewhere called recovery then advanced startup restart now
Then post picture

[pure garnet]

you can try running bootrec /rebuildbcd in the command prompt

but otherwise i'd expect to have to reinstall

[ripe flicker]

I'll js reinstall🥀

[pure garnet]

because the error you actually have is a corrupt or missing bootloader

[nova trout]

This will give you more options within the blue screen thing

Another thing you can do is run the iso file in windows live and it will install it will ask you to keep or delete files no need for flash drive

[pure garnet]

you know the problem is that the os is corrupted right

[nova trout]

He managed to load the file onto the drive I figured he used same pc

But if that’s the case even when you boot from the flash drive it gives you option to keep files if you go the install route so the advanced startup screen is confusing me
Like why is he there

[ripe flicker]

bcs is saysy couldn't repair pc I think

[pure garnet]

because you're in the windows recovery environment and those are the recovery tools

automated repair is not fixing the issue, you can try the bcd command or just reinstall

[nova trout]

He shouldn’t be there if he went the install route is what I’m saying

If he clicked install windows it shouldn’t take him to advanced startup

Can you reboot pc @ripe flicker

[ripe flicker]

already did

[nova trout]

Does it boot into flash drive

[ripe flicker]

yes

[nova trout]

Install but don’t agree to delete

Oh you can’t nvm

lol rip

[ripe flicker]

could I lowkey buy one online?

their are cheap stuff online

[nova trout]

You tried startup repair ?

[nova trout]

That’s not an issue rn

[ripe flicker]

no I'll just reinstall

[nova trout]

You can select I don’t have key

[nova trout]

Ok but there’s something you can try

[ripe flicker]

too much of a hassle I wanna watch somethin already

[nova trout]

Rip

[ripe flicker]

I appreciate ur help btw:)

[nova trout]

If you buy key get pro

[ripe flicker]

which one should I pick?

[ripe flicker]

i think this will work since it's cheap it's probably used

[indigo walrus]

Whichever one you have a legitimately purchased license (from an authorized reseller) for.

[nova trout]

We do not recommend piracy this statement is made for liability purposes

[turbid locust]

I do

[nova trout]

[turbid locust]

especially for windows

[turbid locust]

If you’re gonna steal and sell my data at least do it for free

[nova trout]

I started in 2016 on legit windows 7 from a cheap dell
Got offered free windows 10 by Microsoft for 4 years eventually I said yes
Now I’m on 11 all free never paid for it

[pure garnet]

the tridents still have the leds on in sleep

[nova trout]

Also I installed 11 on like 10 different machines all legit never paid for any
You just login with your account from legit machine on new hardware it verifies them

[pure garnet]

pain and motivation to swap heatsinks

[ripe flicker]

what is this

[nova trout]

Been heavily using oo10 silent and winaero tweaker

[turbid locust]

Just use their software and turn them off entirely

[pure garnet]

they have no onboard memory

[turbid locust]

They don’t?

[pure garnet]

well aside from the 48gb of it no

[nova trout]

You need tpm 2.0 and other stuff you can disable requirement with cmd prompt I think you have to do that before you create the flash drive

[ripe flicker]

y'all what do I do?

[turbid locust]

hmmm I don’t remember having their software on my Intel rig and they stayed off

maybe I do idk

[pure garnet]

do you have signal or anything

[ripe flicker]

what is tpm 2.0

[turbid locust]

Actually i probably do because the vcolor dimms also turned off when i got in windows lol

[pure garnet]

i only use windows dynamic lightning to control my mobo rgb

[turbid locust]

nah just gskills program

[nova trout]

Nvm just follow instructions here

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/windows11/how-to-bypass-windows-11-system-requirements-during-installation-on-an-old-lapto/4060758

[ripe flicker]

im back here again

[turbid locust]

gskills program is really lightweight

[nova trout]

Just open the link I sent you

[pure garnet]

if i install something it’llprobably be signal since it’ll do my mic too

[turbid locust]

RGB mic is insane

[young void]

Signal is noicee

[pure garnet]

christmas brother mac

[ripe flicker]

sure

[pure garnet]

i use a quadcast s

[molten crater]

pfft windows

[turbid locust]

I haven’t gotten a Christmas gift in years big dawg

[ripe flicker]

my specs is ddr4 2666mhz 16gb and r5 3600 asus a320-k and 3060ti

[molten crater]

(linux)

[pure garnet]

that is the ugliest gnome setup i’ve seen

[molten crater]

shut

[pure garnet]

also

ubuntu

[turbid locust]

“Hey look at me I use not windows guys!1!1!1!!1!!1! Look at me!!1!1!1!”

[pure garnet]

post like a labwc setup on an alpine install if you wanna be cool

[molten crater]

I'm literally just on it because it took more than two seconds to load the start menu

[pure garnet]

well fortunately i own hardware from this decade so i dont have that issue

[molten crater]

my hardware is

its just shit

[ripe flicker]

does my specs not meet the required stufff?

[molten crater]

purposly

[turbid locust]

I tried to daily Linux once apon a time. Eventually got tired of figuring out workarounds/alternatives to shit more than actually using my computer lmao.

[young void]

[molten crater]

The only reason I haven't thrown this laptop out the window is because of zen cores

[young void]

Outside of specific use cases windows is great

[molten crater]

Thats the fun part

[pure garnet]

i use it on campus bc i don’t have to install spyware to connect to eduroam on there

[nova trout]

Bro I literally gave you solution to your problem

[turbid locust]

I daily drove Ubuntu on my laptop in college

[ripe flicker]

i don't understand a part of it

[turbid locust]

Got called a weirdo by my digital forensics professor

[ripe flicker]

atp is it much better if I just install linux?

[nova trout]

He tells you what to do step by step

[pure garnet]

i was using either arch or alpine depending on how i felt

i package stuff for alpine for the campus so i may as well just use it

[ripe flicker]

I don't understand the no. 2 one

[pure garnet]

i’ve installed it so many times that i can speedrun configuring all the stuff 90% of distros do by default though

[molten crater]

Does ubuntu have any type of virus protection?

[nova trout]

Step two is to make the flash drive bootable which you already did
Start at step 3

[pure garnet]

yeah, using it

[turbid locust]

I liked an arch based distro I used for awhile. It was nice, but I just kept having general issues trying to use my pc so meh.

[molten crater]

what is it

[turbid locust]

I can’t remember what it was called but it was purple theme by default

[pure garnet]

you don’t need one

you don’t on windows either

[pure garnet]

endeavoros probably

[turbid locust]

EndeavorOS. That’s what it was

[molten crater]

Are the virus's only windows compatible😭

[pure garnet]

like 95% of them yeah

[turbid locust]

Yeah that. It was nice and whatnot but ugh

[molten crater]

Thats kinda funny tbh

[pure garnet]

i mean there’s about 80 desktop linux users total

[molten crater]

Not even virus's like linux

[pure garnet]

not really a platform worth focusing on desktop malware for

[turbid locust]

I would try to stream CS to my friends in discord and my refresh rate would lock to 60hz while streaming. It was annoying af.

Now I’m on an Nvidia gpu and don’t even want to attempt to try lol

[molten crater]

Poor poor windows users with 50 different antivirus's

[turbid locust]

Windows defender

[pure garnet]

i just don’t download random exes

i don’t think i’ve had malware since like when i was 14 maybe?

[turbid locust]

14???

[molten crater]

I remember the day when my free trial of macaffe ended... I thought my computer was gonna explode

[turbid locust]

I think the last time I got a virus was on the family computer when I was like fuckin 6

[pure garnet]

i’m using a higher number to not get blasted by the automated report system

[brisk jolt]

i dont remember downloading malware at all lmao

[turbid locust]

Bruh

[ripe flicker]

@nova trout

[nova trout]

You’re doing it wrong
It says type: “regedit” you typed the path you’re supposed to follow after

[pure garnet]

i think i got at least 48 trojans trying to download Minecraft as a child

[turbid locust]

I convinced my mom to buy Minecraft for me in 2014

[molten crater]

I took a Sata ssd out of an old dell volstro from like the early 2010s that I used as a kid and Microsoft defender started screaming at me that it had 5 different virus's on it

[turbid locust]

Shout out mom

[pure garnet]

i got mine from my aunt

[turbid locust]

one of maybe 3 good things she did for me LMAO

[pure garnet]

my nitro sub is about as long as i’ve had a debit card

[pure garnet]

smile

[molten crater]

I don't even know which microsoft account my minecraft is on

[turbid locust]

I keep forgetting to cancel mine so I just… have it

[pure garnet]

i keep going to cancel it then getting time subscribed fomo

[molten crater]

At least i've joined the world and i'm using an ssd now

[brisk jolt]

i think i might as well say ive never downloaded any malware

[turbid locust]

I just like using emojis from different servers. That’s it pretty much. And higher file size uploads. That’s the only reason I have nitro.

[molten crater]

not dumb soldured emmc storage

[pure garnet]

the screenshare is a benefit for me too

[turbid locust]

That’s a good thing yeah

[nova trout]

Click on local machine
Find system within it
Find setup within system

[pure garnet]

if it wasn’t a complete waste of bandwidth i’d stream my stress tests while i’m at work

[nova trout]

Is there Vc in this server

[pure garnet]

so i should check on them

[turbid locust]

I hope not

[nova trout]

We could be done ten minutes ago in a vc

[nova trout]

Rip

[pure garnet]

not a public one no

[ripe flicker]

lmao fr

[arctic bronze]

there is a vc

[nova trout]

Rip

[pure garnet]

just dm call each other

[arctic bronze]

its locked for those subed to floatplane

[molten crater]

What is happening here???

[nova trout]

He looks like he’s almost done

[pure garnet]

that’s called a file system

[wraith steeple]

It's been like a year since FP VC has been active

[nova trout]

Right click labconfig dword 32 name it whatever they want …etc

[molten crater]

What's all the simplified file names tho??

[pure garnet]

it is way too late in the night for a unix history lesson

[nova trout]

Dm call real quick

[pure garnet]

but the naming conventions are from the 80s

everything in linux is represented by a file

[molten crater]

Its 3 PM for me i've got hours

[clever quail]

Guys do you have any suggestions what cool we can try with my friend on school laptops where we dont have admin rights?

[ripe flicker]

Thanks for help everyone and especially to @nova trout I appreciate it so much

[nova trout]

Although when that thing is done pc might boot from flash drive if its set as primary
Not to confuse you let it finish its thing we’ll see

[sturdy sand]

i begged my dad to buy me goat simulator and minecraft pocket edition back then

[ripe flicker]

sure

[sturdy sand]

he thankfully said yes

[nova trout]

What’s your gpu mobo stuff

You gotta get drivers

Idk what intel needs I know amd needs chipset drivers

[ripe flicker]

i got 3060ti and a320-k asus and r5 3600

[nova trout]

You need chipset drivers from amd

Gpu driver from Nvidia

Maybe WiFi driver if your board has one

You get that from asus

[ripe flicker]

it doesn't have wifi driver i think

[nova trout]

It can’t have a driver it would have a WiFi chip

[ripe flicker]

I use a wifi repeater

[nova trout]

Driver is software

[nova trout]

U need driver for that

[arctic bronze]

what?

[ripe flicker]

omg i miss playin on a console

[ripe flicker]

i think it automatically downloads because im currently connected to wifi

[arctic bronze]

prob generic wifi driver

[ripe flicker]

still works so all good

THIS REMINDS ME OF XBOX UPDATE

[nova trout]

Windows has by default standard drivers but you would still grab one from manufacturer

[sturdy sand]

transform it into a pipebomb

[clever quail]

good idea

[nova trout]

Play cool math games

[sturdy sand]

use it as a shield

[ripe flicker]

sure

[nova trout]

You know what’s funny Linus made a video about exactly this thing we just went through

https://youtu.be/MBCiMK4AmEI?si=6A-MCHOp4Dcqm7KO

He even goes through bypass steps

Load them into drive through rufus so you don’t have to pull cmd line and regedit every time

Rufus can kill your drive if you’re not careful tho so be careful

You remove drive when it nukes its partitions or whatever rip flash drive

[arctic bronze]

????

[nova trout]

Yes

Forgot steps but I’m 100% positive

[arctic bronze]

iv used it for many many years, never heard of this or had issues

[nova trout]

I can pull it up if I get to my pc

[arctic bronze]

I 100% doubt this

[nova trout]

Nope

Partition table gone you unplug it pc cant see it forever

[arctic bronze]

?

[nova trout]

Not sure if something other than that tho

But its the part when rufus nukes everything
You unplug the drive its dead

Pc will not recognize it

Won’t appear

Give it a try or look it up

Have fun

Or it was changing mbr/gpt with rufus you unplug during process

Forgot what it was specifically

I can replicate it if I get to pc and have sacrificial drive

[arctic bronze]

that would be annoying but not brick it

[nova trout]

The process which rufus uses nukes and rewrites
Before it rewrites you unplug it has no brain anymore
Pc can’t talk to it
Disk manager can’t see it

Forgot specifics off the top of my head this is what I remember

I would never spend more than 400$ on a laptop

[arctic bronze]

why?

[nova trout]

Because then I’d get a pc

To me laptop is for me ease / convenience

High end components in laptop most of the time are terribly executed either way

Not worth the money

[nova trout]

Also maybe this https://www.newegg.com/asus-vivobook-15-6-touch-screen-intel-core-i5-1334u-intel-iris-xe-graphics-16gb-memory-512-gb-ssd-quiet-blue/p/N82E16834236645

[vestal granite]

see youre thinking of high end components as a cpu or a gpu but for laptops that is not the case

[vestal granite]

high end components in a laptop are the display, a coaster for your cold drinks on a hot summer day, a good keyboard, webcam, etc

[nova trout]

There’s mobile variants of those but application is terrible

Bruh they’re giving away bf6 with this 💀 💀 💀

Gaming on integrated graphics laptop

Although if you need a laptop and have pc you pick this up you get free bf6 win win

Idk about intel 13th gen tho

[frank cypress]

realistically a low end non X chip is not going to degrade to oblivion

[gusty radish]

are there any decent hall effect controllers that work with both switch and PC?

All that for 450$

No its just igpu

[nova trout]

How do you test ram stability memtest86?

[brisk jolt]

you run it for like 10 hours

[nova trout]

Bruv

Does occt tell you if imc is bad

[brisk jolt]

no

[green marsh]

why am i looking at N150 mini PC for HTPC duty when i have a 5700G system doing that duty, and if i buy a new mini PC, it will mean i will have yet another unused PC (the 5700G system) 😄

[brisk jolt]

you obviously need a strix halo in a mini pc

all problems solved and the 5700g can retire as some server

[green marsh]

i don't need yet another server. i already have way too many computers 😄

[green marsh]

excluding my main desktop and macbook laptop:

1. 2950x/128GB RAM main server
2. Core i5-3570K/16GB RAM backup server (as in all it does is file backups from main server)
3. 5700G/32GB RAM HTPC
4. Mac Mini 2018 i5/64GB RAM running Ubuntu for experimenting with Kubernetes
5. unused 3900X/16GB RAM/1080 Ti system
   6 and 7) unused 2699v3/X99/128GB RAM system (yes, got two)
6. unused i5-3470/16GB RAM small system
7. unused i5-4670S/16GB RAM system

but trying to sell 8 & 9 would be hard, and 6 would be impossible to sell (half of RAM slots are dead on the board)

😄

[brisk jolt]

i’d give 8 and 9 to relatives who are in need of a system to do basic tasks

[narrow gate]

Old

Testmem5 ☝️

[green marsh]

mom has i5-8400 system. Brother has i9-9900K system. Dad has an i3-6100T AIO system which isn't great, but both 8 & 9 would be downgrade

[spare tinsel]

anybody here using a 5060 or 5050 or 4060

[nova trout]

I’ll look it up

[devout ridge]

why

[frosty prism]

Wants to ask to ask

[devout ridge]

Yeah ik, that's why i'm trying to find out their actual question

[devout ridge]

You shouldn't be buying a card with 8gb of VRAM today

[devout ridge]

but if you already have an 8gb card it's not inherently bad

[spare tinsel]

put another way
at what price a 4060 a good deal
or 5060

[frosty prism]

We can't know

[devout ridge]

It's highly recommended that you get at least a 12gb card

[frosty prism]

We do not know your res or the rear of the system or what games

[devout ridge]

So that you can continue to play AAA games in future

[young void]

sighs some jack wagon really tried telling me about how how his samsung monitor from goodwill was $15 to compare to my OLED. Some people really just take no shame in waisting others time

Its 4am and im already dissapointed

[wraith steeple]

Got some QDT3s on the way

[young void]

Gotta show the rig once slotted

[wraith steeple]

ISTG those QDT3s were very difficult to get for some time. QD3s might as well be unicorns at this point

These especially

[young void]

They got a icy finish shouldn't dissapoint

[wraith steeple]

They did have a black finish for QD3s, though were known for flaking

Bought my QDT3s from Koolance's site

Only place that had them in stock too

You forgot to clean the 1080 Ti out of it

[hoary hatch]

Saving that for the drill press

[topaz veldt]

use a chainsaw as a surface grinder

[hoary hatch]

I can throw it into an etch tool

Maybe I'll see the transistors

[wraith steeple]

[hoary hatch]

Not every process will etch bare silicon though

[turbid locust]

@topaz veldt

[topaz veldt]

Nice! now make it CL34

[steel stream]

ok hell yeah

[steel stream]

man that is a tiny die

[turbid locust]

aye aye captain

[hoary hatch]

Someone stole one of my vram chips

I think it was Jensen

[steel stream]

I didn't even notice

[topaz veldt]

you don't need it

[hoary hatch]

Look how not dense that PCB is

We've really changed how GPUs are made

[brisk jolt]

and some people are still stuck with the mindset of “modern day gpus suck”

[steel stream]

the right side is decent, but the die is practically a desert wasteland

[brisk jolt]

they shall be left in the dust

[hoary hatch]

Yeah the left 60% is sparse

[oak vector]

Guys can I recode my gpu bios if I take a hammer and chisel to the bare die

[devout ridge]

no

[oak vector]

I reckon if I really focus I could

[steel stream]

if you are really precise yeah

[devout ridge]

the BIOS isn’t physically stored though, it’s electrically stored

[oak vector]

Shh

[steel stream]

nah i reckon you could still do it

[steel stream]

just chisel the electrons

[brisk jolt]

if ur a irl netrunner maybe

[topaz veldt]

lets go! now karhu!

[steel stream]

kaboom?

[topaz veldt]

bro that trefi is like 0

[turbid locust]

dont worry about karhu

[topaz veldt]

I never saw someone disable trefi before

[turbid locust]

auto timings go brrrr

[oak vector]

Now what is that and how does one achieve that

[pure garnet]

more time refreshing than crunching numbers

[turbid locust]

bam!

[pure garnet]

how much did you pay the suns rays to align to make this stable

[steel stream]

it errored right after this right

[turbid locust]

no it's still going surprisingly

[pure garnet]

it’s because you threatened to go back to am5

so now it’s locked in

[steel stream]

it was just playing before

[turbid locust]

these dimms getting warm

[topaz veldt]

how hot

[turbid locust]

they have thickboi heatsinks on em, right next to each other cause 1dpc

[turbid locust]

ones 57C and the other 53C rn 7 mins into karhu

[shell void]

you running a fan twin?

[steel stream]

custom DIMM loop

[turbid locust]

ya

PureWings3 at 90% lmfao

[shell void]

that do be toasty for only being 7 mins into karhu with no gpu load and with a fan

[turbid locust]

ya

would hate to desink them but... lol

[pure garnet]

water cool them

[wraith steeple]

I got muh Koolance QDCs coming soon

[clever quail]

I found 4080 Super and 9800X3D pc for 1900€. Should i buy?

[fleet marsh]

i sold my 3070. and looking to get another gpu. max is 599. so i was thinking between a 5070 and 9070. what would be my best bet gpu wise ?

[steel stream]

what res do you play at

[fleet marsh]

@steel stream 1440p. No plans of 4k.

[turbid locust]

save slightly more money for a 5070Ti and enjoy 1440p for a long time

[oak vector]

When is 5070 super releasing man 😔

[fleet marsh]

my 3070 sold a lot faster then i thought it would. now im without a gpu. soooo need something asap

[oak vector]

If I sold my 4060ti
I’d be stuck with a gtx 960 until I found smth better

4gb gtx 960 at 1440p would go so hard

[pure garnet]

i'd say 5070 probably

[gentle urchin]

You guys don't have iGPUs?

[pure garnet]

better rt and dlss vs fsr kinda a no brainer

[fleet marsh]

not sure my 7700x igpu can game lol

[pure garnet]

barely

[turbid locust]

7700x hits 60fps in 1080p valorant

https://tenor.com/view/tibia-magic-wall-sudden-death-sd-bless-gif-14845032

[turbid locust]

ok it finally errored lol

[topaz veldt]

oof yeah 55-56 is breaking point

[turbid locust]

I wonder if it was due to heat tho

[gentle urchin]

[fringe vigil]

Really?

[topaz veldt]

yes

[fringe vigil]

Cap

[topaz veldt]

they're from philly

[brisk jolt]

my 780m somehow manages 120fps in 3K

[fringe vigil]

I’m so jel

[turbid locust]

wtf is 3K

[fringe vigil]

next time they come I’ll sing with them

What’s funny

[wraith steeple]

https://youtu.be/1h5UBeQcgjs?si=sHx0CXB-t0tfSNia
My type of choir

Them singing Riding Dirty and Hey ya sent me into orbit

[steel stream]

kind of forgot I made a change to something in prod without changing it in our dev environment whoops

[pure garnet]

the 780m is like a 5090 in comparison to the desktop zen igpu

the desktop chips have 2 EUs

[frank zealot]

one more than 2k
and one less than 4k

[turbid locust]

Yeah I figured

[frank zealot]

(but realistically, no fuckin' clue)

[wraith steeple]

I'd assume it was 4k but a typo

[frank zealot]

whatever the fuck resolution that is

[brisk jolt]

but in terms of igpu its at best a 5080 if we say it that way with strix halo being 5090

[steel stream]

Dell markets my laptop as "3.5K"

3456x2160

[frank zealot]

that's just narrow 4k lol

[wraith steeple]

Ah okay

[steel stream]

solid little 16:10 display

[wraith steeple]

Handheld/mobile like device moment

[frank zealot]

but it's the same vertical as 4k, so it's just a less-wide 4k

[steel stream]

yeah

[brisk jolt]

235 ppi is nice tho (16” 3200x2000)

[steel stream]

I've got 260 ppi

[frank zealot]

I've got a screen in my desktop that's almost 500ppi

[steel stream]

damn

[frank zealot]

2560x1440 @ 6"

[brisk jolt]

goddamn

[frank zealot]

and as a bonus: It's not tied to proprietary software or devices

[merry stirrup]

[frank zealot]

it's a hdmi monitor that can attach to a 120mm fan

[merry stirrup]

worlds coldest lcd

[frank zealot]

the feet on the back can be moved, and are both magnetic, and also have holes for fan screws

Full HDMI Connector, and a sata connector for power

[merry stirrup]

pretty neat

[steel stream]

i fuck with that

[frank zealot]

Once I get shit setup, I'll be using for AIDA

[turbid locust]

AIDA? of all things lol

[steel stream]

[frank zealot]

what? 1440p, and all of the charts! 😄

[topaz veldt]

fuckin nailed it

[merry stirrup]

@turbid locust your 8k xmp results make me want to buy an 8k d5 kit

[turbid locust]

I think it’s more CUDIMM PCB than the profile itself

[merry stirrup]

arent ur 6k c26 kits cudimm pcb? unless thats what ur saying

[turbid locust]

I don’t think mine are

I think some people got 6000c26 kits on CUDIMM PCBs but I don’t think I did

[merry stirrup]

o i see, is any 8200 kit a cudimm pcb? or should i keep an eye out for that vcolor

[turbid locust]

I didn’t even realize it was CUDIMM till after I bought it

[merry stirrup]

skull

so it could just be a pcb diff

[turbid locust]

Ya

[merry stirrup]

so it likely is just pcb diff*

wonder if i buy some 8k gskills if ill have a similar experience

[brisk jolt]

trying 6400 2133 with 1.5v 1.27-1.28 vsoc and failed lmao

[merry stirrup]

this my friend is typically called a brick

[brisk jolt]

ig what ur saying is fuck this IMC

[merry stirrup]

yes

[brisk jolt]

it fucking crashed 2 secs into memtest5

[merry stirrup]

that is hilarious

[brisk jolt]

the correct answer here is to obviously get rid of this 9800x3d and get zen 6

[merry stirrup]

yes

[brisk jolt]

im gonna forsake the mobo cpu and ram bro

[merry stirrup]

i would be ready to have a brick chip if your goal is memory tuning

[brisk jolt]

im just gonna declare this 9800x3d imc as dead weight

[merry stirrup]

yes

[brisk jolt]

I can go try it on a 7600X, but that PC doesnt even game

[turbid locust]

lower FCLK

If you’re testing IMC drop FCLK to like 2000

[brisk jolt]

Mind explaining?

[turbid locust]

FCLK has a negative relationship with VSoC

Higher VSoC, lower FCLK will need to be for it to be stable

If you’re just testing if your UCLK can do 3200Mhz, you should be lowering your FCLK to make sure it’s not a variable

[brisk jolt]

Then would there really be a point in running 6400 without 2133?

1.5v+1.27vsoc 6400 (2000fclk) crashing in a whopping 3 seconds 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️

nope, those are 92mm's

[edgy laurel]

still look slimmer than standard

[pure garnet]

how could one hate the nf-a20

[frank zealot]

I think they're the 15mm that come on the low profile heatsinks

If they were slim 120's, I'd potentially consider it

[steel stream]

need

i've got two 200mm that need replacing

[shell void]

we need nf-a20x40

a20 is an ancient design

those havn 180x40 fans will probably murder it

[frank zealot]

can anyone tell me why there's a crossbow in FBM under "Musical Instruments"

[pure garnet]

why does fractal not give a diagram of what fans fit in what part of the case

i just wanna see if i need to order another 140mm fan or not

[edgy laurel]

they make it clear enough on the product page for each case

[topaz veldt]

Fractal has one of the best descriptions/info for cases...

[merry stirrup]

jeez

[pure garnet]

i found it in the manual

[edgy laurel]

not a diagram but it gets the job done. for meshify 3

cause it makes people sing?

i don’t expect C6 to get the new tandem woled panel, especially not the neglected 42” and 48” sizes

[fringe vigil]

It won’t

[pure garnet]

but nothing not oled felt like an improvement to me at all

[edgy laurel]

shhh, but jorj might believe it

[shell void]

it will probably be 165Hz and could be notably brighter tho

[fringe vigil]

165 lol

won’t even notice it

[shell void]

it’s so over jorj

c7 tandem woled and 240hz

[edgy laurel]

LG really should do us right and give us a 42" 240Hz tandem

better not pull a Scamsung and change panel types by size

at some point i’d like to upgrade but ill wait till i move

the less computers i’m dragging the better

[merry stirrup]

WOAH

id argue you need more computers

[merry stirrup]

use the think center

[pure garnet]

that’s what it’s doing brother

[merry stirrup]

oh my bad im arted

[pure garnet]

jellyfin + mc server + a couple other small things

[merry stirrup]

how fancy

i should put a dgpu in my server but i am so lazy

[topaz veldt]

do not

[pure garnet]

i have a 2tb drive for media with no redundancy which is not ideal

but it’s only media so if it dies i’m okay

[topaz veldt]

media is re-.... rippable... so its not necessary to redundancize it

[merry stirrup]

consider that generally with fast internet things you can redownload freely are better to just be redownloaded in the case of an event

when i reinstall windows and by extension delete pretty much everything the files im saving are kilobytes in size, not really about the mass of the storage

[fringe vigil]

Gud morning today jorj has bought an oled

[topaz veldt]

proof

[fringe vigil]

I’ll show u soon

[topaz veldt]

[fringe vigil]

Me when I accidentally just took a gamble on an untested motherboard for roughly $30 😅

[topaz veldt]

whats the gamble

its $30

[merry stirrup]

whats the board

[serene sonnet]

GIGABYTE Z390 AORUS ELITE

[serene sonnet]

the gamble is it not potentially working

[merry stirrup]

why z390?

[topaz veldt]

its $30...

[serene sonnet]

fair

[pure garnet]

oh well even when brand new they're not potentially working

[topaz veldt]

9900K 💪

[serene sonnet]

for my i5 8400

[pure garnet]

vt-d toggle just dead on my board

[merry stirrup]

that is a sentence

[pure garnet]

can't believe they want 600 for it

[topaz veldt]

I would never pay more than $250 for a motherboard

[merry stirrup]

youre paying the cost of an i5 8400 and a quickie behind the denny's for your motherboard

[serene sonnet]

I kid you not, z390 is the lowest board I could get

[merry stirrup]

your money may have been better off saved

[pure garnet]

i think i paid 249 after the combo

[serene sonnet]

it's not that bad lol

[merry stirrup]

ehhhhh

[pure garnet]

30 bucks is reasonable

[topaz veldt]

I had a Z390 Master

[pure garnet]

if it's dead stop while you're behind

[fringe vigil]

bro are you trying to be micheal de Santa

[merry stirrup]

30$ is a reasonable price if you are interested in the platform but if its your daily i think you should save further and get lga1700 or am5 so long as whatever baord your 8400 is in is functional

[serene sonnet]

I'm not sure what I would do further if it's dead anyway lol

[pure garnet]

not buying yet another board is what i mean

[merry stirrup]

^

[hoary hatch]

You can buy my z370 and 8400

[merry stirrup]

200$

[edgy laurel]

[serene sonnet]

it's not my daily, it's for my server that has presumably a broken motherboard, my daily is a ryzen 7 7700
