[royal ridge]

What upload/download speed (if any) is recommended for gaming?

[edgy laurel]

Whatever you can get thats consistent and low latency.

For strictly gaming, bandwidth is most important for downloading the game. Playing it, not so much.

Beyond that, you tell us what you can get

and then someone can tell you if its good enough

[frank zealot]

Guilty, it's too bad that NPT 1/4 doesn't work with G1/4:

[edgy laurel]

Oh

i haven't touched a custom loop in many years, thats mostly gibberish lol

[frank zealot]

NPT is american threading
G1/4 is BSP which is british

[edgy laurel]

i'd have to learn all about sizes and shit If i ever wanted to do that again

[royal ridge]

The lowest option that I’m looking at is 300Mbps, which I feel should be sufficient but I just wanted to ask

[edgy laurel]

symmetrical? plenty

[royal ridge]

Not sure what symmetrical means but cool

[edgy laurel]

download and upload

if they are both 300Mb/s

[royal ridge]

Ahh gotcha

Yea I’ll have to double check, I think so though

[edgy laurel]

even if they're not, won't affecting gaming.

[royal ridge]

Sweet, thanks

[steel stream]

I was on a call with a compute provider yesterday and they were like "Have you considered AMD" in our datacenter, which we have, and do, but they said "They seem to be displacing Intel"

I was like "well, until Nvidia gets involved"

[steel stream]

me when I shoot my exploding car battery at the single mother of four

it's just not a good idea

[topaz veldt]

LOL Quick! Dump this flaming lithium bomb into some Philly rowhome!

[steel stream]

i'm no expert, but isnt keeping the battery in the car keeping it somewhat contained at least?

[topaz veldt]

yeah like.... cool you save the car and burn down an apartment building

[steel stream]

you can now do a drive by with a giant lithium ion battery

a really shitty drive by at that

[pure grail]

dump the passenger

[merry stirrup]

so EU gets 1 extra year of support for Windows 10 for free, no strings attached it seems

[merry stirrup]

wow im so happy

[green marsh]

https://www.theverge.com/news/785544/microsoft-windows-10-extended-security-updates-free-europe-changes

[merry stirrup]

that one doesnt make any sense cause didnt ms kinda allow unsupported devices?

"we gave you guys 1 more year on top of the 5 youve had to go to windows 11"

[topaz veldt]

Who cares about Windows 10? Honestly

[merry stirrup]

seems like a loop is inbound

[green marsh]

yes and no. Windows 11 can't run on pre-Nehalem devices now (POCNT and SSE4.2 required in 24H2)

[merry stirrup]

[rigid orchid]

How good is the 2019 shield tv pro nowadays?

[merry stirrup]

how slow is what you should be asking but idk

[steel stream]

If you want the best audio passthrough support it's still the best

[merry stirrup]

oh thats fire

i never knew audio passthrough could be a problem tthough

[steel stream]

me too, till recently

[merry stirrup]

like yes it makes sense if you want support for everything, everything in the chain needs support

but at the same time audio signal is just 2 wires

whateva

[rigid orchid]

I have the onn pro but it doesn't do Dolby atmos pass through to my soundbar

[steel stream]

the issue with Atmos and other surround sound media is that within Atmos there are multiple different formats, one format for streaming, one for blu-rays and so on, so most devices support only a few of the formats, typically the streaming ones and don't offer passthrough for the others

[steel stream]

You can try a Firestick 4K max or whatever it is called, it has passthrough but I find it to be another firestick and not a great experience. Shield is still the best for audio

[rigid orchid]

The other idea i had was keeping the onn pro for normal streaming, and supplement it with an ugoos amb6+, since I have a jellyfin server

[merry stirrup]

iim so scared to touch audio

and you do not help

[steel stream]

just get the shield pro

that's my suggestion LOL

[merry stirrup]

the second i try anything im gonna ask for help and youre gonna abuse me verbally and physically

[steel stream]

no no my anger is just at the companies not you

i just take my anger out on you

[merry stirrup]

mkaaaay

[merry stirrup]

am4 guy gave me the addy lets go

[steel stream]

I've just discovered how much of a shithole it is and I want to save other people

[merry stirrup]

this is what i dont like about audio

im not the type of flopper to let arbitrary device limitations be the cause of my failure but with audio it seems inevitable

[edgy laurel]

thats talking video but ya

[merry stirrup]

i much prefer to be able to use all of my own boxes as long as i use whatever software they want me to use or some community implment

[edgy laurel]

standards suck, that be how it is

[rigid orchid]

Should I go with the latter then?

[merry stirrup]

also random question for somereason you guys would know this

im setting up home security

two 4k 5mp cameras, how much space should i purchase

will be in a 2 drive mirror (all i can fit in dell precision unless i buy more caddys)

[steel stream]

dude it turns out the Fire Stick 4K max if you don't have it on Always HDR with a non Dolby Atmos signal, it will cause the audio to become so out of sync there is a full second between the lips moving and you actually hear the audio

[merry stirrup]

this is peak bezos optimization

[merry stirrup]

google tells me like 4tb for a month

[steel stream]

I was going fucking insane trying to watch Shaun of the dead

[merry stirrup]

so that'd be 2x4tb hdds from serverpart deals or something

[edgy laurel]

question is, why doesn't @steel stream have an AM6B+ running CoreELEC yet

[steel stream]

because I got the firestick for $20

[edgy laurel]

ooook can't argue with that lmao

[merry stirrup]

does home security need encoding? 😭

[edgy laurel]

floppa what, go back to ram

[merry stirrup]

like if i want to make it available on the net

this will all be done by me im not using included camera software

[edgy laurel]

sounds like a networking issue

[steel stream]

Yeah I'd go for 4TB+ as for encoding I would maybe ask 5nail

camers would be recording all the time right

[merry stirrup]

ig direct stream probably

[merry stirrup]

yeah not motion activated

[rigid orchid]

I might just end up getting am6b+ then

[merry stirrup]

okie im just gonna do dual 4tb and call it good

the setup cost is only about 300$

[edgy laurel]

don't forget https://coreelec.org/

[steel stream]

Hoping for a new AppleTV this year with proper passthroguh but I think that might be ultimate cope

[merry stirrup]

2x 4k camera
2x 4tb hdd
1x 5 port poe switch
misc cabling

at least if i dont need a gpu but you guys told me about direct play which is probably going to be how itll work over internet

[edgy laurel]

its like wack-a-mole trying to find the perfect solution

[merry stirrup]

ig this is no different than ram timings

[edgy laurel]

one thing gains the ability to do one feature you want, but can't do another. vice versa for another solution

[rigid orchid]

I definitely won't

[steel stream]

fr fr, I've thought about going just full batshit insane and burning the movies to discs and playing them through my PS5

[edgy laurel]

yeah, all of this might drive some people to going back to buying BD's

[merry stirrup]

good drives? 5 year lifespan

[steel stream]

embrace physical media once again

[green marsh]

let's hope it is not a comingled fake smart chia hard drive

[edgy laurel]

i've seen stories with headlines recently that streaming killed piracy.. and now revived it

[merry stirrup]

from serverpartdeals its legit

https://serverpartdeals.com/collections/all-hard-drives?sort=price-ascending

[rigid orchid]

The onn 4k pro does everything i want, except support all of the stuff that's in my jellyfin library lol

[green marsh]

i thought it was an amazon listing for some reason, sorry. I wouldn't buy a 4TB drive just because price per TB is not that great, but if that is what you want, sure, why not

[merry stirrup]

8tb drives (id need two) get too expensive atp

double the price (minus 5 dollars) for an 8tb 7e8

[steel stream]

yeah in the beginning streaming 100% killed piracy, but now something like Disney just had it's fifth price increase and costs 2x more than it did when it came out

[green marsh]

i mean 16TB is $300 new or so ? $18.75/TB. This one is $16.25/TB refurb 🤷‍♂️

[edgy laurel]

yeah, that plus the 600 different services

can't keep track of whats available where and don't want to

[merry stirrup]

300$ new is kinda my entire budget for this project LOL

[steel stream]

If you are streaming from services99% of available sticks will do the job, the moment you get your own media kaboom

[merry stirrup]

like i can spend more i just dont see the point as long as i can hold about a month of footage

[steel stream]

I don't do it but I love piracy

[rigid orchid]

And there's STILL disney stuff not on Disney plus

[steel stream]

yeah I need to buy some new drives soon

and multiple drives this time not one

[low sorrel]

Guilty what did you think about the F1 race

[merry stirrup]

at least my server will have a real function that i care for

[steel stream]

I am just almost out of movie storage

[merry stirrup]

this is next plan i think

i think im going to buy mom a new gpu and put my rtx4k in the server

a very competent card for jellyfin and such and i can mess with light local llms

[steel stream]

I gave my brother my 4070 a while ago and he still has not installed it

[merry stirrup]

😭

[steel stream]

I want to put the b580 in my server

I can do some light LLMs with either, but b580 -> 4070 jump in gaming for him would be huge

[merry stirrup]

thats true

[merry stirrup]

also i cant i forgot to plug in my kvm

[steel stream]

NOOOO

[merry stirrup]

RIGHT?! 😭

i gotta have it setup in a way i can have it on all the time

is there a way to have all displays clone? probably

well actually a specific display clone

also that 2.5g switch i was a little concerned about is in fact 2.5g

pretty cheap, it was like 30$ w/next day, not bad

[rigid orchid]

I have a 12 tb drive and 2 18 tb drives

All external

[merry stirrup]

change that

[steel stream]

external :(

[spiral quarry]

lol the mixed ram

[merry stirrup]

worst case its a 1st gen g sku

ig thats technically 2nd gen but you get it

i think its going to be a 1300 or whatever the first gen r3 is called

[low sorrel]

Could be a 3300x

[odd sable]

given it has a dgpu, likely a 1200 or 1300x

[merry stirrup]

i think so

[odd sable]

b350 board, probably not 3000 series

[merry stirrup]

my only clues to the specs are him saying its "8 or 9 years old"

makes sense, era appropriate for the GPU

so its prolly first gen

anyways fellas what we think

Nono, its a couple of people in here that helped me a long time ago.

[steel stream]

it's ok I guess, nothing spectacular

[odd sable]

intel 14000, no

[merry stirrup]

its a computer

[merry stirrup]

whats wrong withthat

[orchid frost]

Would it run just about any game no issue (Dayz, Mc, etc.)

[steel stream]

probably

[devout ridge]

i mean it's not bad price to performance, but also 8gb card in 2025, and the worst intel 14th gen chip

[merry stirrup]

its a 14400...

[steel stream]

it's a 14400f

[devout ridge]

at 1080p high or 1440p medium

[odd sable]

and? thats one of the effected dies

[merry stirrup]

degredation happened with high temps and voltage under single core loads

[odd sable]

i trust nothing with that die

[orchid frost]

1080p high

[devout ridge]

i'm saying what it will run fine at

[merry stirrup]

despite the issues being fixed? (although intel default setitngs are sstill bad)

[odd sable]

somewhat anecdotal, but even with the firmware update we have had 14900k CPUs die at work

multiple of them

[orchid frost]

Would it work good with this aswell

[merry stirrup]

i think board manus lowk still at fault in this but idk

[sly moon]

That’s pretty big for 1080p?

[merry stirrup]

i dont think a dell or hp pc/w 14400 is ever going to degrade

[orchid frost]

I like big screens XD,

I do ALOT, of stuff.

[merry stirrup]

i have a 13500 in this rig and i mean for all intents andpurposes its stable

[odd sable]

these are HP prebuilts running at stock...

[merry stirrup]

yeah thats what any 14400 is going to do i fear

[orchid frost]

erm.

24" or 108", 1080p is 1080p, you can't fit more on one than the other

the K skus have a lot more wiggle room for the vendors of X board to do what they want to vid and loadline

[odd sable]

and killing CPUs, even with latest post-update FW

[orchid frost]

I honestly dont get it man,

[merry stirrup]

why do you have 14900-K skus in your HP prebuilts

😭

[odd sable]

idk why its the k sku, but it is

[merry stirrup]

i dont even think thats a spec 😭

[edgy laurel]

All you're accomplishing by getting a larger 1080p monitor is making the image worse, not giving yourself more room. Has to strech the same amount of pixels over a larger area, reducing definition. Things get.. blurry, more or less.

[merry stirrup]

ill be damned LOL

thats so strange tho i have the same HP Z2 workstations at work with 13700/14700s but theyre all NON k

[orchid frost]

Oh 🙁

[merry stirrup]

theres an hp rig upstairs at work with hynix greenies

i want to take

for oc ventures

[steel stream]

14900k 💪 + 4800MHz RAM !💪

[merry stirrup]

cause the edge can bypass locked pmics

[merry stirrup]

😭 fr this spec list is wild

ig the 14900k's were cheaper cause they blow up

[edgy laurel]

blow up in slow motion

[steel stream]

you can make your customer buy them again

[merry stirrup]

who did this to a 14900ks now i know thats not a spec

there isnt even a gpu in it why bro

[sly moon]

2.3k

[merry stirrup]

yeah the ones with gpus in them are 3.5

like normal workstations

like the a4000 based one i sent is only 2800$

[shell void]

holy based

[merry stirrup]

no michael

do you want to see the fucking cooler in it ill take my side panel off rn

[orchid frost]

so these dont go good together?

[steel stream]

i used to have something super similar to this, I think I had the smaller one

[merry stirrup]

its pretty small under the plastic

[steel stream]

Yeah, but I mean the smaller box

[merry stirrup]

ahhh

these ones are kinda small not too small. the uhhh DT ones?

[steel stream]

HP Prodesk G3 or whatever

[merry stirrup]

ive got a couple of them ill show one

g3/g4/g5 same chassis so those are a mix of 7/8/9th gen i think

[steel stream]

ah ok

Yeah mine was 7th gen

[merry stirrup]

yeah those were when they got ok

the 6th gen ones dont have NVME

[steel stream]

damn

[nimble iris]

Cooked or not cooked

[rigid orchid]

Looking at Amazon, it might actually be cheaper just getting the shield pro over the ugoos since I'd also have to get an hdmi splitter

[merry stirrup]

looks fine but like uh

low pixel count

[steel stream]

ewaste 🗣️

[nimble iris]

My man all the pins are inside the cpu thingy is it normal 😭

[steel stream]

only one way to find out right

[merry stirrup]

yes shawty

that’s an intel and recently amd

[rigid orchid]

I'm not making a final decision till later tho

[steel stream]

LGA is love, LGA is life

[nimble iris]

U sure? Coz uhh last time i checked the pinsare supposed to he on the cpu not motherboard after doing a divorce

[merry stirrup]

its called LGA

google it mister guy

will inform you a lot better than me

well ig google "LGA socket"

[nimble iris]

Ah i see are they bad

[steel stream]

no

[merry stirrup]

no i like it more than pins on the cpu

[nimble iris]

But its only for intel i assume

[merry stirrup]

breaking a motherboard is a lot cheaper usually than breaking a cpu

[steel stream]

no

[merry stirrup]

on am5 now

[nimble iris]

Oh thats why you recommended me an am5 cpu?

[merry stirrup]

no more so just cause theyre decent for the $

[rigid orchid]

@steel stream you recommended the shield pro right? (I admittedly don't have a high end dolby vision tv and dolby atmos sound set up lol)

[merry stirrup]

all of my chrome/edge tabs certainly take up a lot of mem

[steel stream]

yes if you want the best audio passthrough, Shield Pro is still the way to go afaik

people still praise it to this day

[merry stirrup]

rogue got me curious on if the 13500 in this desktop has exploded

[nimble iris]

After removing the cpu i can confirm its an intel i5 4460

[merry stirrup]

fire

[rigid orchid]

I'll probably end up getting it then, not even sure how well my soundbar subwoofer combo handles atmos to start with

[steel stream]

what soundbar do you have

[rigid orchid]

Tcl s55h

[merry stirrup]

bros boutta inform you that because you have this specific soundbar you cant use the shield

(im lying)

[nimble iris]

Its 4,5x slower than a ryz 5 7500f thats so fire

[merry stirrup]

yeah that sounds about right 💀

[nimble iris]

But still usable but im not using that lol

[steel stream]

While it does "support" Atmos content, it's just a mediocre experience as Atmos's big thing is having height channels

[nimble iris]

Motherboard neither its a ddr3 ram slot

[thick frost]

Isn’t she gorgeous

[merry stirrup]

well yeah it doesnt support ddr4 its a 4460

[rigid orchid]

Tbh, I kinda want the shield for the ai upscaling as well lol

[steel stream]

https://www.rtings.com/soundbar/reviews/tcl/s55h

[nimble iris]

But i got smth

[merry stirrup]

ewaste yum

free?

[steel stream]

yeah it's still a great streaming box

[thick frost]

Got it for my older computers

[merry stirrup]

or is that secretly peak monitor

[thick frost]

$10, it’s probably worth it

[rigid orchid]

I got on sale for like 90 usd

[merry stirrup]

good enuf

[steel stream]

yeah valid af

[civic reef]

Oh look my old CPU

[thick frost]

DVI and vga and it works which are my 3 requirements for an old flat panel square monitor

[merry stirrup]

my shitty sony soundbar might be shitty HOWEVER i got it for 7$

[steel stream]

you're not on TV speakers anymore so that is always a huge plus

[nimble iris]

What a monster

[merry stirrup]

is that akn approved

[thick frost]

That’s like a whole gt640

[steel stream]

yes I always respect it

[nimble iris]

Gtx something

950 maybe

[thick frost]

1050ti perhaps

[merry stirrup]

fire

altho its kinda gross its not that bad

[nimble iris]

Ah yeah gtx 950 2gd5 OCV2

[merry stirrup]

like 2.1 is L but what can a flopper do without much more money

[thick frost]

I also didn’t know this was brown until I got it in the light lmao

It fits it better

[merry stirrup]

lol retrobrite it

[thick frost]

I was hoping for a dell flat panel but what can you do

[merry stirrup]

might go back to grey

[thick frost]

No

[merry stirrup]

coulda just given u one

[thick frost]

It’s MEANT to be brown

That was a choice

[steel stream]

stereo is still great, really the most important part is just having a subwoofer

[thick frost]

Even more of a choice is to make this 2003 looking ass monitor in 2014

[merry stirrup]

i have a 4:3 one at home like probably exactly like ur thinkin

[steel stream]

if you had a soundbar but no subwoofer then we might have a problem

[thick frost]

Yes that one

[merry stirrup]

i have no woofer mister

couldnt find it remember

[steel stream]

you just said 2.1 you bastard

[thick frost]

The somewhat heavy grey and silver dell 4:3 square flat panels

[merry stirrup]

well the remote for the bar to pair it

IM SORRY I MEANT LIKE STOCK

[steel stream]

tsk tsk

[merry stirrup]

hear me out

[steel stream]

but that's on me for forgetting the whole conversation we had LOL

[merry stirrup]

i buy a flipper zero and guess what radio freq is to pair the soundbar to the woofer

[steel stream]

yeah then you also get a fun tool

[merry stirrup]

8x more than the cost of the bar and woof

i think realistically i just graudate to real speakers

cause this bar is annoying me anyways id like less of a footprint

its annoying to get it to balance upright and point at me

i dont want it blasting at my ceiling sony

[steel stream]

tbf that is what Atmos speakers in soundbars do, they bounce sound at the ceiling and have it bounce back to create the illusion of height

[sly moon]

Your neighbors need to hear it more than you do

[merry stirrup]

my neighbor is the sky

[steel stream]

go to goodwill or smth and just scavenge an amplifier and speakers

[merry stirrup]

this might be the way

amps are kind of expensive there lowk, like 80$ tho

might hitup other thrifts fot that

[nimble iris]

Absolute unit i can now run roblox on 60fps

[steel stream]

I wanted to do a full setup with tower speakers and such but the scamsung soundbar was too good of value to pass up

[merry stirrup]

are you practicing while you wait for your real computer

[nimble iris]

Lowkey yeah

[merry stirrup]

thats valid. my desk isnt v big at home (and the soundbar is shaped like a wedge) so its just annoying

[nimble iris]

Coz im still afraid of how hard the ram slots are to mount

[merry stirrup]

nah

just hit that shit

[steel stream]

having dedicated speakers is just so much more baller but $$$

[merry stirrup]

https://tenor.com/view/el-luchito-con-la-ram-gif-15851431

[steel stream]

I was about to say where ram hammer

[merry stirrup]

goodwill tweeter and sub setup will be mine

[nimble iris]

Holdup

[merry stirrup]

up

(me struggling to hold up^)

[digital gate]

Rest in peace to my old 2080 super

[merry stirrup]

whyd you KILL IT

[digital gate]

it started artifacting

[steel stream]

it's turding dude

[merry stirrup]

this is sadness

[digital gate]

yeah

[merry stirrup]

thats real i only used it for a year

[rigid orchid]

A 2.1 system is fine for like a bedroom

[edgy laurel]

@topaz veldt look, your old RAM hammer

[merry stirrup]

no im doing the whole shabang

[edgy laurel]

https://tenor.com/view/i-cant-tell-if-thats-statement-or-question-ali-colman-domingo-euphoria-i-cannot-say-whether-this-is-a-statement-or-a-question-gif-24675592

[edgy laurel]

wow, more RAM hammers

[nimble iris]

I actually have a feeling it works

[merry stirrup]

oh for sure

[steel stream]

the minimum for atmos is 5.1.2 btw

[edgy laurel]

I bet that 100% works

[merry stirrup]

ive thrown cpus across the room and they had a higher cinebench score than before

lga 775

[nimble iris]

Nah fr tho how would they break

[merry stirrup]

dont do that to areal computer tho 💀

[edgy laurel]

might chip an edge, but whats gonna break on a CPU

[steel stream]

what if it's the new AM4 sku it's ok then right

[merry stirrup]

real

[nimble iris]

I actually have a better method

Watch

[pure garnet]

any am4 sku*

[merry stirrup]

dont kill your hardware now hollon tho

4th gen i5 can be a server or somethin at LEAST

[pure garnet]

i forgot i bought a fishbowl and now i can’t install my gpu or cpu cooler at the same time

so i have to overnight a 360 aio

[merry stirrup]

is that cauliflower

[nimble iris]

Yall the first people to see someone ram a ram in with a cauliflower

[merry stirrup]

are you like secretly a rabbit dawg

[nimble iris]

Yes

[merry stirrup]

im downloading that onto my computer

[nimble iris]

Is it that good

Wait lemme do smth even better

[merry stirrup]

ill just bring it out every once and a while thats an ultimate ability

[steel stream]

nah i've seen it before

[nimble iris]

Fuck no

[merry stirrup]

michaels party back in '13 u had to be there

[steel stream]

good times

[nimble iris]

Nah fuck you ill use my whole television

[merry stirrup]

saw that at @edgy laurel's party back in the 1920s

[nimble iris]

Actually nah that tv costs 3000€ or smth

[steel stream]

what TV

[nimble iris]

Panasonic

Ok maybe not 3000€ but thats a good tv

[steel stream]

model?

[nimble iris]

Panasonic something

Idk bro

[steel stream]

lame

[nimble iris]

What isnt lame is seeing someone ram a ram with a cauliflower

[merry stirrup]

what did they do

AAAAAAAA

stupid and bad

[topaz veldt]

That's the wrong type!

Man I am having fun with this legal team

1. Runfile Installer: When using the official NVIDIA runfile installer (e.g., a .run file), you will be prompted to read and accept the EULA. For automated or "silent" installations, you can use the --accept-license or --silent flag. The inclusion of these flags in your installation script signifies your acceptance of the EULA's terms and conditions, allowing the installation to proceed without interactive prompts.

[tepid copper]

Hi people

[topaz veldt]

OK cool... buttttt....
2. Package Manager (e.g., APT, DNF): When installing the drivers through a package manager, the act of adding the official NVIDIA repository and then installing the driver packages is considered an acceptance of the EULA. The NVIDIA datacenter driver download page explicitly states, "By downloading and using the software, you agree to fully comply with the terms and conditions of the NVIDIA Driver License Agreement." Therefore, while you may not see an explicit interactive prompt to accept the EULA during the package manager installation process, proceeding with the installation implies your consent to the agreement.

[steel stream]

nice

[edgy laurel]

i don't see the problem

it seems pretty well spelled out

[topaz veldt]

so

we are extremely strict on EULAs

I need it to prompt

so I am going to have to run it from a shell script old school mode

They will not legally accept "adding the repo and running a command is acceptance"

[edgy laurel]

but accepting it through the automated MSI script or similiar is ok using the flags mentioned?

[low sorrel]

Haha

[topaz veldt]

linux

[low sorrel]

Floppa

How do you walk around with ANC on

[merry stirrup]

by walking around

[edgy laurel]

oh, well shit

[low sorrel]

This shit is sketchy

[merry stirrup]

wat

[low sorrel]

Traffic scary

[merry stirrup]

are you in nyc bro

maybe dont use anc

[topaz veldt]

We have no Nvidia AI/ML prior to this platform we always just consumed services. I am building out this nvidia pod. So I need to get Nvidia in as a vendor in our company.

[steel stream]

nah use ANC and max volume to walk around trust

[edgy laurel]

removing your sense of hearing in public with cars and shit around is sketchy

[merry stirrup]

this was me in school

[low sorrel]

Never doing that again

[steel stream]

IRL frogger on hard mode pretty much

[edgy laurel]

transparency mode

[low sorrel]

Idk I almost got hit by a car

[low sorrel]

Bro ran a red

[merry stirrup]

i got hit by a car and the bitch saw me it doesnt help hearing

[shell void]

[edgy laurel]

hope they don't have i225-v/i226-v issues

[topaz veldt]

literally why i got away from the B650E-E

[pure garnet]

i wonder if yours will develop banana like mine

[merry stirrup]

if it WHAT

[shell void]

what the heck does that mean

[pure garnet]

mines bent

my x550-t2

[shell void]

heat warp? xd

[topaz veldt]

yeah its not i225

[edgy laurel]

iirc you had some actual problems

[topaz veldt]

I did

[shell void]

my b650e-e i226 is the only nic that’s ever been unstable for me

[edgy laurel]

i have an i225v in my B550i and luckily haven't had an issue, knock on wood

[merry stirrup]

my z590 aorus ultra was bad too

[pure garnet]

your b650e-e was a whole bag of tricks

[merry stirrup]

mine would die until i cold booted the system every once and a while

which is the typical problem with them

[low sorrel]

Remember walking in the road is safer then the sidewalk because cars on the sidewalk are out of control and cars on the road are trying to avoid obstacles and are in control

[topaz veldt]

there are fundamental hardware issues with i225/226

[merry stirrup]

^

[topaz veldt]

I think certain revs

[merry stirrup]

old revs yes

[topaz veldt]

not old even

[shell void]

X540 and X550 justworkTM

with the con that they produce as much heat as a star

[topaz veldt]

Today they do

[merry stirrup]

well they supposedly fixed it a little after the issue got traction on z590

so you probably got an older chipset that was the same 1.2 rev as mine

[topaz veldt]

My board was well after Z590 and broken

[edgy laurel]

So, there is that problem where the NIC just disappears from the system. Only way to bring it back is shutting the system off at the PSU and holding the power button down, then turning it back on. That happened once to me, but I posted about it on LTTforum and I still get replies in that thread from it helping people

[topaz veldt]

Mine did this continuously

[shell void]

the X550s i just bought are rev0a made in malaysia in 2022

[green marsh]

had zero issues with my 226v's 🤷‍♂️

[merry stirrup]

yeah mine does this constantly

[topaz veldt]

X550/540/520 had bad drivers in like 2017

[merry stirrup]

the z590 pro ax in my closet same problem

[green marsh]

issue with the Intel 10gbe NICs is no WoL

[merry stirrup]

rev 1.2 i225 iirc

[topaz veldt]

@shell void if you're bored check out X710 driver issues

[edgy laurel]

oof. that happened to me only once in the 4+ years i've had that rig running

[merry stirrup]

yeah thats cray

[shell void]

the chinese will no longer be interfacing my network

[merry stirrup]

none of the fixes worked for me so ig mine was mega borked

[green marsh]

X550 is the only one which does have WoL

[topaz veldt]

Mine was on B650E-E and ASUS replaced twice

[green marsh]

and these prehistoric ones

[merry stirrup]

coudlnt get mine replaced so i just had to do the cold boot every time

[shell void]

X540 is from the stone age

[topaz veldt]

Mine got so bad that it wouldn't come back even after a power cycle

[merry stirrup]

wack

[green marsh]

still, only X550 supports WoL. 600, 700, 800 series have no WoL

[topaz veldt]

The problem too was that when the NIC would go away it'd fuck the TCP/IP stack in Windows so wireless would dump also

[topaz veldt]

They're enterprise NICs so yeah

but the X710 is cursed - you can find them ultra cheap, they're terrible

[shell void]

RTL8127 will be the obvious 10gb nic play if it isnt found to have driver issues

thing uses one 4.0 lane and puts out 2W

[thick frost]

I can’t think of the name, what’s the utility to check the SMART status of storage drives

[shell void]

it's starting to get put on boards now, i think the X870E Master ICE X3D has it

[merry stirrup]

hdsentinel? crystal disk info?

[topaz veldt]

realtek is asscheeks overall though

[thick frost]

Crystal disk info, that’s it

[topaz veldt]

I wish they would do an intel or broadcom onboard

[thick frost]

Thanks

[topaz veldt]

realtek linux support is horrid

[shell void]

yeah i wasnt even planning to buy nics until my realtek 5gb refuse to negotiate 5gb with my switch

i was just gonna run built in 5gb and my old x540 in the second pc

[topaz veldt]

word

[shell void]

it radicalized me

[topaz veldt]

I put something in this C240 M5

Let me see what it is

I am rebuilding my TrueNAS into a new box

OK yeah that's an X550

[green marsh]

other option is ConnectX, which then for many versions doesn't support ASPM 🤷‍♂️

[topaz veldt]

Again, enterprise, and generally not cheap unless ancient

[green marsh]

realtek is coming down in price

[topaz veldt]

Realtek is garbage

[green marsh]

https://www.techpowerup.com/337113/realtek-to-bring-affordable-10-gbps-ethernet-to-the-masses-later-this-year

[topaz veldt]

yeah that is a virus not a feature

[shell void]

yeah that's the rtl8127

its gonna be the new standard builtin nic for boards

[green marsh]

🤷‍♂️ if you want new modern $60-$80 10GBe, you can't be picky

[shell void]

i just paid $50/ea for brand new X550s

old HPE stock made in 2022

[topaz veldt]

Yeah I'd buy used before new

[green marsh]

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009607517350.html

new RTL8127 card

[shell void]

snail when are you upgrading to 100gbe at home

[topaz veldt]

heh - I am try ing to get everything on 25 first

when I get an Arista 25 switch it'll do 100 on some end ports

I would buy this all day

[thick frost]

the first victim has been claimed (if a hard drive is failing it gets beat to death)

[merry stirrup]

😭

[shell void]

valid

[green marsh]

you could ask a HDD restoration company, they might want the heads & PCB, depending on hard drive model

[edgy laurel]

The beatings will continue until data integrity improves

[thick frost]

you speak my language

[low sorrel]

I just ate spam for the first time

Is better then I thought

[topaz veldt]

ew

[merry stirrup]

freaking 2.5 hours to go get this computer

[edgy laurel]

stop it, we eat scrapple

[merry stirrup]

snail did you see the ewaste yet or nah cause i think youll be appauled

[topaz veldt]

I do not

[merry stirrup]

1 ppauled

[topaz veldt]

what ewaste

[thick frost]

That one was a 320gb from 2011. It would not be worth it

[merry stirrup]

you tell me

[thick frost]

What gpu is that

[edgy laurel]

what kind of mid-atlantic person are you!?

[merry stirrup]

rx 580 some amount of vram

[topaz veldt]

not a scrappler dude i have standards

[thick frost]

the next victim

[merry stirrup]

specifically its an msi armor v1 rx 580 and its the worst 580 produced

[edgy laurel]

I actually haven't had scrapple for years... it was weird but good

[green marsh]

is that 3 types of modules in 4 RAM slots ?

[thick frost]

If it’s not a 2048 or whatever the China model was, it’s not

[green marsh]

and then the caution is because of hours

[merry stirrup]

pcb/cooler wise

i dont care about the core, the 2048s are basically just rx 570s

[pure garnet]

my u9s mounted sideways sounds like a geiger counter

[thick frost]

Current pending sector count

[topaz veldt]

thats a bio weapon

[merry stirrup]

how does a dual fan card hardly longer than the motherboard with a paper thin cooler sag so much

[topaz veldt]

rats slept on it

[green marsh]

this guy 😄

[merry stirrup]

no thats just normal for all armor cards thats hte problem

i dont get how they built it so wrong that it cant hold its weight in the slot

i hope for an ssd at minimum

[pure garnet]

80c with firefox open

this may not be the move

[merry stirrup]

GOD im tired 3 edits on a simple message

[merry stirrup]

what is this 😭

[thick frost]

Cooler le stink?

[pure garnet]

i mounted a u9s using d15s hardware facing up and not fully screwed down as a temp thing till my aio comes in the morning

[thick frost]

It also has 15182 power on hours

[topaz veldt]

that reminds me - my stupid heatkiller block doesn't come until tomorrow now

[pure garnet]

my pc literally sounds like it's gonna explode in a bit

[crisp ore]

anyone here good with fans who can help me out? first build here

[merry stirrup]

i feel like a normal stock cooler would work better

[green marsh]

nearly 90k is just a little bit more

[pure garnet]

what am5 stock cooler do you think i own

[merry stirrup]

an am4 stock cooler

[pure garnet]

why would i own one of those still

[merry stirrup]

because youre a nerd who doesnt keep an extra cooler

[pure garnet]

my gpu is vertical

[merry stirrup]

i have an extra amd stock cooler and ive never bougth a cpu brand new that came with one

[pure garnet]

i own coolers but they don't fit

[merry stirrup]

[low sorrel]

Wtf is scrapple

[pure garnet]

hey it's dropped to 70c

[merry stirrup]

USABLE!!

[pure garnet]

i got a turbine next to me

should my psu fan be facing into or out my case btw

[pure garnet]

it's an intake so out usually

ykno… maybe graphics cards have gotten a bit too large

[merry stirrup]

he said it not me

you dont ever see it ig LOL

[shell void]

i think we’ve reached the point where the 90 class just should be watercooled

[frank cypress]

nonsense

[low sorrel]

Why not all fe cards

[frank cypress]

waiting for a case sized 90 class card

[low sorrel]

Sir that's an AIO

[pure garnet]

to this day i still laugh at the cmos battery placement

[merry stirrup]

such a stupid position

[pure garnet]

and the supplemental power

[frank cypress]

msi

[low sorrel]

Where's the cmos

[crisp ore]

if my psu is intake at the front of my case then how should i orient my fans throughout the rest? using a lian li A3 matx

[frank cypress]

[pure garnet]

it's on the mpower too

[merry stirrup]

for some reason

[pure garnet]

my pc so loud

i must just blast spotify to cope

[merry stirrup]

play a game too

[frank cypress]

no headphones?

[merry stirrup]

trust

[pure garnet]

that's the plan

[frank cypress]

[pure garnet]

i think it goes to 3000rpm

[frank cypress]

which fans?

[pure garnet]

the stock fan of a u9s

[frank cypress]

oh

[pure garnet]

tldr my d15s doesn't fit in my y40 so

i strapped a u9s sideways with shitty contact using the d15s mounting hardware in an unofficial config

i am 75c on the desktop rn

[pure garnet]

just opened it

[merry stirrup]

bing chillinh

[pure garnet]

uh oh

blue intake red exhaust

[merry stirrup]

why top fan fighting the middle one

it’s a side fan

the middle one

[merry stirrup]

the top should still exhaust

youre fighting convection

[crisp ore]

i thought convection was irrelevant in a pc

[shell void]

mission success i am connected at 10gb

all i had to do was stop using the chinese lan port on my board

[merry stirrup]

heat will always rise may as well use it to your benefit

[crisp ore]

so swap top to exhaust and that’s good

[merry stirrup]

seems legit yeah maybe consider bottom intakes

[odd sable]

it really doesnt matter much, but fans fighting eachother does

[crisp ore]

should i have my cpu cooler as an exhaust blowing onto the other back exhaust

[merry stirrup]

yes

[frank cypress]

them turbulent air

[crisp ore]

alright

[merry stirrup]

yems gotta assist that jawn

[pure garnet]

i think im gonna go disable pbo

[merry stirrup]

45w ppt

[crisp ore]

so like this?

[frank cypress]

sure

[merry stirrup]

yeah loosk good

computer im sure itll compute

[crisp ore]

alright thanks

[frank cypress]

what he said

[shell void]

you cant be too sure

[odd sable]

actually, top in might be better here

[merry stirrup]

for the cpu?

[frank cypress]

is that an a3?

[odd sable]

if top is exhaust, the side fan's air is just being exhausted out the top

[crisp ore]

yes

[frank cypress]

or ap201?

[merry stirrup]

yeah it is

[frank cypress]

ah fair

[merry stirrup]

it would depend on how strong the side fan is nah?

[odd sable]

im assuming they are the same fans

so, equal

[merry stirrup]

probably will still hit the ram and help the cpu a little bit

[odd sable]

one intakes through sidepanel, other is just yeeting it out the top

[crisp ore]

yeah the fans are all the same

[merry stirrup]

cpu fan is going to be spinning faster than case fans

so side intake should still provide it with ok air

[odd sable]

both shoving air in, will force it to take another path out, such as through or around the CPU cooler

[merry stirrup]

but ig if you make them fight then the cpu takes it all

[merry stirrup]

yeah

the logic its logicing

[odd sable]

iirc, noctua found similar things with front 3 + top 3, its better to to have the top front one as an intake

[merry stirrup]

wonder if it helps or hurts ram tmeps doing one way or the other

[frank cypress]

logix is logixing

[merry stirrup]

this whole conversation for a like 300w computer im sure

[frank cypress]

lmaooo

[crisp ore]

750w

[pure garnet]

73c in the bios

[frank cypress]

lower noise at least

[merry stirrup]

750w is your psu

[crisp ore]

oh ye mf

[pure garnet]

anyone wanna help the amazon driver get to my house faster

[merry stirrup]

idk the fans fighting eachother i feel like would still be louder

[crisp ore]

i’m using a 6800xt and a i7 10700f

[odd sable]

hand them a new bottle

[merry stirrup]

yeah like 350w my bad

[frank cypress]

new piss bottle?

[latent sable]

what is tech2

[merry stirrup]

no, a 40 and then after they drink it new piss bottle

[latent sable]

is it for smart people

[merry stirrup]

just different people but yes

[pure garnet]

i probaly should've like

[latent sable]

😁

[pure garnet]

set the cpu fan to just run at 100% 24/7 beause it almost hit proc hot booting to desktop

[crisp ore]

so am i leaving the fans as the last photo i sent or should i change some

[merry stirrup]

HEHEHEHA

[crisp ore]

i have been messing around w cables for the past 5 mins i haven’t read anything

[merry stirrup]

it honestly doesnt matter so if youve changed it or not yet just leave it

[crisp ore]

i haven’t got my fans screwed on yet so i can do whatever

[merry stirrup]

but we did logic that yeah u were technically right waow good job

[crisp ore]

alright cold

[merry stirrup]

this one

[crisp ore]

ah okay thanks

[merry stirrup]

yep yep yep

[crisp ore]

this had me stumped for a good 45 mins so fuck finally

newbie problems 🫩

[merry stirrup]

lol yeah i just half ass my way into an ok airflow path and my temps are fine

i run into transfer limits more than i do airflow lol

[low sorrel]

Real shit

Also always remember to include a ram fan

[merry stirrup]

hes got one

on accident but hes got one

which ill take a ram fan is a good fan

[low sorrel]

Also Is the 9800x3d overclockable I forgot

[merry stirrup]

"overclockable"

probably wont have luck getting static oc's to be great

[low sorrel]

I remember amd saying OC would come later for x3d

[merry stirrup]

but yeah

[merry stirrup]

it allows oc its just not great at it

[low sorrel]

LN2 9800x3d when

[merry stirrup]

stock/pbo is like as good if not bettr

[merry stirrup]

im sure that happened before the chip even officially released
