flopper is ur lady still on the r5 5500?
yeah for a big trade of basically like 2 of his old computers for my 7800xt+200$
kinda old computers
what do they have?
am4 stuff
damn lowk feel like u got scammed brotha
i know what i was doing lol
its to a friend tho so is what it is
hes my best friend ive known him for literally ever
anything for the oc fix
ough
not gonna let bro live on a 2070 super on 1440p
fair enough
left him on radeon tho
fate worse than death
i got his 2070s, 2 mobos, case, psu, cooler, idk 2 kits of ram
like it would be really funny
and i was like "give me 200$ for the gpu too" and thats good
like time from when I say till I post a screenshot
oh ok that not that bad
ough you got the $200?
yeah
do you like my 120w 5800x?
i have a lot of computers that lie around
real
yes for now theres a plan in action
when i upgrade shes going to my muhpower i think
or im gonna buy her am5 to keep the muhpower
you must buy pantherlake
it has cat in name
that’s mobile only
lol
nvl looks great. if the 52c sku isnt chronically overpriced ill be buying that
why tf is medal still in my startup apps
I was thinking nova
im okay paying 600ish dollars for that i dont want to pay more
i deleted tha shit so long ago
think of the funny
radeon = waste of sand
the funny at >600$ is too much for me
i love that almost every regular tech chat 2 user upgraded to blackwell
the peer pressure was insurmountable
lackwell
may have to cope and wait for it to get cheaper or just buy the lower end sku
i would've kept the 4070 but the cheap 5070ti called to me
think of the cb scores
I gotta not upgrade
i am happy that the two gpus that i sold appear to be working 100%
this is the life michael's card lives now
goppa may just want to start an oc channel similar to bz
What does scalar do?
dont use it on am4
id subscribe
lets the cpu use a lil more voltage
But for the one run
it's fine his 5800x was like $60
Hey it's back to 14.8k
should i use scaler on my voltage locked cpu with no eclk
good, so he can degrade it until he must buy a modern cpu
blow it up
scalar is what killed the 5700g lol
2v ftw
optimal
3x scalar for a year and it doesnt do stock
10x scalar we balll
doesn't reddit say to use like 10x
no balls
scalar on am5 is like the voltage slider in msi afterburner
it barely does anything, the smallest of boosts
hoorah 10MHz
Oh my God I forgot to change max boost clock override
3 balls
i wonder if i could do cl28 at 1.35v vdd
in yo jaws
other than that i'm basically done with am5 tuning for my system
i still don't use co because i don't care to stability test it
fair enough on your cpu because it does nothing except boost benchmark scores
it's like one of the easiest things to test...
Gotta do ram OC afterwards now
okay but what do i gain on a chip with a hard locked 50.5 ratio?
y cruncher vt3 works great for pbo testing if you dont wanna do core cycler
not a thing
temps
it's on a 360 aio
ok idgaf then fuck you
thank you mac
🙂
i drank a monster beast that that a year and a half out of date that i found in my grandmother's fridge today
i ran prime95 at like 800rpm static fans and it couldn't heatsoak the radiator
i seem to be fine so win
Andddd it crashed
i want a 9800x3d in hope of a better soc tile but it's a colossal waste of money so i won't buy it

fire broseph
gear 2 dreams
youll probably want to download equalizerapo to eq out any desk reflections
memes even
im afraid of that shit
Edifier has their own EQ app tho
unfortunately it's nearly guaranteed with your big ass desk
i have to put a big cut in mine
easy to find with a sine sweep tho
ill never know if my cpu is a gear 2 champion because i bought the pooron board
only michael would buy a $3000 gpu and pair it with a $250 motherboard
my brother in christ my board was $150
also im not convinced the B850M Mpower is coming to the US
Im finally above stock
you will in fact be importing another one
perhaps
it's fine am5 is irrelevant until zen 6x3d launches
therell be a ton of board released between now and early 2027
yeah im gonna see what options exist first
ur not the only one buddy
tachyon is OP but it's eATX and asus bios better
I want mATX to go back to A3
yeah thats whats gonna be sick about the mpower and my d31
itll fill it out and the mpower imo is a very decent looking board
is the mpower deal finalized
did mactrina put it in the mail
yeah its otw
mactrina is nuts
what bios are you on
i have lm and such coming in the mail
idk lemme open zentimings rq
the last bios broke my gear 2 at all so i went back to a67
im gonna try to repolish the ks before it goes in the muhpower
bios a67
a69 has working usb sleep wake by default though
bios updates havent changed anything for me in like 6 months
guess it's a board lottery thing with the 4 dimmers then
i want to try a z790 giga refresh board
i went back to a67 and usb sleep wake stopped working so i'll park on a67 for now
which are the X lineup
z790 tachyon x
Shit floppa I shouldve thrown in the extra contact frame I had fuck
allegedly they all do 8k
i have one no worries
i want a 14900k+apex but that's like 1k in old stuff
even the shitty micro atx ones
arent third party ilms not cool beans for peak mem speed a lot of the time
yeah id love to buy an apex but not for $500
thats my next fuckery step for high mem speeds
Yes but I literally only have one 1700 board and cpu lol
and unfortunately all z790 boards are sub-optimal except for apex, apex encore, and kingpin
oh lol
theyre the only ones youre getting 8600/8800 on
did you put the evc in there?
iirc it is
this does not spark joy
I boxed it like a month ago

I feel like im not that dumb
tuesday is when we find out LOL
if it's borked ill refund u all g
Floppa what's the max safe voltage for rev e
a lot
400% memtest is a nothingburger
i could not care less about evga gpus, but it does break my heart that kingpin motherboards went extinct right before i got a decent job
thats what he tests to, 1hr 30m
most peopple testing for 8800 stability dont go further
i am highly skeptical due to the consensus that even 8000 is generous on later z790 lightning bioses
1.7?
idk a lot of people seem to recommend the lightning for 1700 oc on the cheaper end, people like blackdot and such
holy crap somebody bought the z790 kingpin that was going for a band on ebay
yeesh
a lot
a lotta hwbot folks consider 30 mins test to be stable lmao
ram doesnt affect cb tho
well blackdot is like actually a good ocer lol
ik but like lol
oc forums mfs be like aint nobody got time for testing longer than an hour, ill just use it until my games crash or i lose data 
as if they cant just test while sleeping
he's also super gatekeepy and arrogant so
HWBOT is a site dedicated to overclocking. We promote overclocking achievements and competitions for professionals as well as enthusiasts with rankings and a huge hardware database.
this is real
he does not like giving sauce
I saw this when I opened my one drive today...
Im not super active in hwbot anymore cause 90% of people are like that lmao
i wouldnt trust 95/100 XOCers to tune my system to be daily stable
i just read
those mfs just pour ln2 and punch in numbers
i dont typically talk
god forbid u ask questions tho
theres aa couple people who have the same hardware/similar/the same issues as me that i talk to occasionally
trying to ask about 1700 ram oc was miserable
yeah
i didnt even bother really asking i wont hold you i know how those gooners are
Tbf stable and LN2 is a oxymoron
yeah most of them barely know how to tune if im honest
"hey I dont understand why X is Y"
"well youre fuckin stupid for not knowing that about a platform youve never touched before so fuck you"
well yeah cold typically takes away a lot of the skill and so does running 43 second benchmarks
generally how most convos went there
they just get binned samples and punch in numbers until something works for 60 seconds
yeah basically
cold is a cheat code yes
LN2
1.7v core
profit
I need new motherboard for ram OC :(
The one your girlfriend used to have or something
B550 gaming gen 3
Im trying to do 4k+
d4 is not super board limited before 5k lol
try to find reddit termination values that work for you
As soon as I go past 4 it dies
terms of service?
wouldnt go above 4k then i changed terms to some reddit values i found and boom 4800
I did 5k on a 4 dimmer on AM4 so like it's a thing
yeah definitely
Huh
lol
4800 4 dimm daily is insane
mine was with some secret sauce ES dimms
yeah the good good i know
stuff that didnt really make it to prod
i dont remember the ic
Rev N
Hold up wtf why isn't it posting on slow ass ram speeds
S8B wasnt happy, threw those in, works first try lmao
yeah micron and hynix are good af at high freq
at least rev.e and djr and shiz
rev.n was the oc ic so it makes sense its good lol
wasnt it in the 5200 max kits too
i mean xoc isn't stable for more than a pass
Wtf is a termination value
those are zen5 ones theres only like 4o ros omething on am4
those setup values are sauce for 1t gdm disavled working
set to like 53 53 53 and your setup should do that
hell
yeah
thats why i said find some reddit values that work casue fucking with them yourself takes forever
faster to fafo geniunely random teminations than figure out what combo is optimal
Hey What's a fair price i can sell my latop for? its a ryzen 3 3300u with 20gbs of ram total with 128 gb ssd im thinking 160$? Is it worth less or more because the cpu was released in 2019.
wdym 20gb of ram
there’s comparable listings at 130usd on ebay, and those are from reputable sellers
you’re probably looking at more like 100usd or less
Ok thanks bro 🙂
probs not worth selling at this point unless youre in hard financial times
Im saving up for the Minisforum 795S7
I should save up
https://x.com/tamupolice/status/1977166014166048826?s=46 what the fuck….
Public Intoxication. Aggie Park. Contacted subject eating a sandwich with a water jug of whiskey. BAC was .337. Released to EMS. #BTHOflorida
Odds the 6 items I ordered on Amazon that said they’d arrive “tomorrow” actually arrive tomorrow? lol
i think people have had above 1
Also whisky is high in alcohol concentration
That’s why it’s serving sizes is measured in shots
you have 16 months to save up money for five rtx 6090s and a handful of new cpus
brother that would mean your blood is 100% alc
sounds optimal
no
it's 10g per liter of blood
Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) is a measure of alcohol in the blood as a percentage. It is calculated in grams per 100 mL of blood, so a BAC of 0.08 means your blood is 0.08% alcohol by volume.
so a BAC of 1 would be 100% alcohol by volume, no?
i mean either way it'd be insanely lethal and you'd die before it
ill test it out dont worry
if your BAC is 0.08 and it's 0.08% Alcohol by volume
what is a bac of 0.1
you should work at verizon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUpZg-Ua5ao&vl=en
George Vaccaro was a Verizon customer who, in early December 2006, had a customer service phone call where Verizon had a legendary "math fail" as it would have been dubbed at that time. This is a viral tale from the early/modern internet age of the oughts. In the calls, the Verizon employees repeatedly fail to acknowledge the distinction between...
I love how companies are SO BAD that YouTubers can make THIRTY FOUR minutes of content from their mistakes.
Why are they always upside down lol
16 months or so for me to save for a 6090 and NVL+6070/6080 
To annoy you
34 minutes? Thats some amateur numbers compared to GN
I'm still watching this. What little faith I had in society has all but up and left my mind tonight. 
My OCD thought about heatgun removing and flipping the label lol
pffft it’ll be covered man
1%
"BAC of x means your blood is x% alcohol by volume"
I know but like
I had to order a 10ft DisplayPort cable so I could move my pc off my desk
The 6.6ft cable barely clears lol
you wouldn't believe how many times/cables I have because of shit like that
@turbid locust I was over on watercooling discord and the dudes there are talking about running three MO-RA 420S for like 12700K and 3080s... what the hell
bro
Some dude was bragging about like 3800W of cooling potential
I was like isn't that like running 10,000HP worth of fuel injectors on a Civic
I was gonna say- 3m is lowk crazy but then again- My table’s pretty small
$2000 in watercooling for their cpu that was $200 four years ago
all that for a 12700k?
gotta give that $200 cpu 4 years ago that civic with a laptop treatment
dude couldn't spring the extra 4 e cores?
none of the intel 7 node i7s make sense for overclocking when they're just awful bin i9s
I dunno, not judging their builds really it just doesn't make sense to me
Like at that rate why not just get a 55 gal of coolant and a 360
by time the 55 gal is raised in temp it won't matter
My desk is like 6.5ft wide
Yeah- mines like half of it
Havent bought the desk yet because I shit you not- I forgot about it
repurpose a hot water tank as a coolant reservoir
Mike you call water heaters, hot water heaters don’t you?
do not question my northeast vernacular you pig
@merry stirrup
fix ur settings and spam enter
Guys how long until Roman @ TG releases "Duronaut extreme"?
never
So I don't think 4200 mhz was stable
the real question is TG master block when?
do i leave my speaker on so karhu can wake me up again or just let it error in my sleep
I bought a DP 1.4 cable instead of 2.1 cause it was $7 cheaper 
if you don’t need 2.1 does it matter
I shared the post right
there are no good dp2.1 monitors yet anyway so ur cooling
I do not need 2.1 for 1440p 144hz lmao
i’m still rocking the 2010 era rocketfish hdmi cable
My fav mousepad to this day was my rocketfish aluminum one
the “gold” plating is all rusted but it works fine
the first good dp2.1 monitor is the PG27AQWP and it’s 1440p540Hz so none of us will buy it probably
?
ROFL
how did they pick palit over the master
Why fe last
EU things
srs question?
Fucked up PCB
Why not first
5090 FE is 3 PCBs held together with dental floss
nvidia has only sold like 500 5090FEs in total in the USA so it’s low priority
the only vendor is Bestbuy and there aren’t many reviews
Hey you can get direct from Nvidia aswell
fairy tale
I wouldn’t mind having an FE cause I think the design is cool and 2 slot goes nuts
Yeah
I want a FE for the T1 but no access here and scalpers
My only bet is a freight forwarder lmao
The FE would be sick in my A3
yeah i’m not fighting for a fe when i can get an aib model for msrp with ease or just get a higher end one anyway
Or- a friend of mine going to study in the UK buys one and brings it back for me xd
I would trade my TUF for an FE I think
i don’t know enough 5090s to have opinions on non astral models
Its a pretty 1:1 trade for every model except for the top dogs
the per pin monitoring stuff is neat but meh too expensive
5090 is wasted on me anyway
the 5070ti has yet to really be maxed out
Solely cause it would fit nicer in my A3
I really wanna go back to my A3 
i miss the size of my sff system but i don’t miss building in it
i like my y40 though
The A3 is a nice size without being miserable to build in imo
I like the performance of the 5090 over the 5070ti- Problem is its a room heater esp in singapore.
BF6 campaign is... super predictable so far
i had the nr200p which is fairly large but i think the non chambered gpu made it suck
I played the first two missions and got bored ngl
yeah dude I just got shot down in the heli its like right, of course
i have my own ac so that doesn’t matter for me but
i don’t realistically benefit from buying one right now
Yeah it just seems… super surface level
facial and voice acting is so lame
no offense to the game but it looks like it’s from 2018
yeah...
bloom changed in general
Look I loved BF BC2, BF3, BF4... but like.... I think people going off on it are just shilling
Carbines, ARs, and SMGs are just less accurate at range now, at least in stock forms
I’m enjoying the actual gameplay
“this game is so well optimized!!!”
looks
no modern lighting or effects
I was having a lot of fun in the multiplayer but I never played BF for the campaigns lol
Yeah pretty much lol
i didn’t know bf6 even had a campaign till i installed it
the campaigns were epic prior
most gamers don’t care about anything except draw distance and textures
The mud in the opening campaign scene looks like it’s rendered in 480p
stellar blade is the same way
fair enough those are the most important
it’s unreal engine 5 but it doesn’t use any of the new stuff so it runs great on everything
but i love me some good lighting
it’s even playable on the steam deck at native
like… 
noice
Thats your settings - mine looks better?
Get ac
flawed
I’m running Maxed settings DLSS Quality?
Hm dunno mine didn't look like that I don't think
turn off chromatic abberation
It was specifically in the opening scene
ya
i was paying attentiong because the dudes ahead leave foot prints but your character does not
is off. All grain, blur, and shit are off
Yeah
weird
High res textures supposedly installed too
lol
So is battlefield 6 a wait for sale if I only really care about campaign
i'd wait
When you get to the next mission where you switch characters and your character is looking at their “reflection” in their helmet visor…
MP is semi fun but no joke so far I've just been dumped in BF4 maps
duh
ROFL just noticed that now
look at that reflection real hard… 
Its fucking BEAT
LITERALLY STATIC IMAGE
no facial movement at all
like again I’m not trying to hate but like… it’s just funny
right
Game is good but like 
I am in a server and one dude is like a BF fanatic, but shit talks COD... its like dude.... they do so much more with less
Meanwhile I have thousands of hours in BC2, BF3, BF4
I haven’t enjoyed cod in several years so 
but like... I dunno dude...
I also have an AC, I only use it at night. I only really use the full 500w during the day with the windows open.
COD Campaigns >>>
wowowow
BF Multiplayer>>>
aw so good
AW marked the beginning of the end imo
ghosts tbf
I fucking collided with a parachuter?
Arma MP >>>
That’s where multiplayer just went to absolute shit
Ghosts was over hated
i agree but that’s when it started going down
Ghosts’ perk system was ass but game was ultimately ok
COD player count peaked in BO2 on Xbox360, but the playerbase was still solid through BO3
AW weapon balance and P2W loot boxes were ASS
Also BF is like "Guys... how many overlay icons can we put in a HUD?"
i was told to ask in here so, could someone help with my win7 installation, im having a bit of an issue
Why are you on windows 7
I’m not helping you get malware no
because, dualboot
Win7? no
lmao
Nothing with Windows 7 installed should ever be connected to a network lmfao
there is no reason to be on windows 7 for general use in 2025
downgrading from win 11
oh wait i checked tc1 and there using some random iso off a torrent site too
LOL
But yeah. Games good and looks fine and runs well which I can appreciate. But it’s definitely not pushing the boundaries for games or anything lol.
just post your password in chat at that point it’d be safer
It’s exactly what I wanted it to be though.
There’s a reason that channel just isn’t in my channel list anymore
PW: "hunter2"
No dude the lighting is mostly static
mfs will hate modern windows with their entire being and do anything except use linux to escape it
afaik it’s entirely static
"hottacobellpoopuser"
“I don’t like the UI” dude they changed where the taskbar icons are by default and changed right click context menu
probably someone told them "win 7 is the best"
i have seen many people say that
“I don’t like the UI” was a valid argument when it was 7 to 8. But 10 to 11?????!
i hate that windows 11 ui hides things behinds more layers for no reason too, but id use linux if i was really mad, not fricking windows 7
Hey hey hey
why did you take plasma and make it worse
Idk I got bored on a ferry
Incredibly terrible
most valid reason
I have zero idea how to revert it
hoping my speakers actually show up when they say they will 
i’m pretty sure you can just open plasma settings, click one of themes, and check “apply desktop layout”
I got white speakers just to piss @topaz veldt off
Oh oh no I did much more then that
It's arch hell no I'm not doing that shit again
I guess I could use arch install
I had some weird edge case
i just don’t like its existence because people will install the distro without understanding how it works
Only reason why I installed arch is because I got bored on the ferry the way there
it’s my dualboot with w11 rn
Mac this is boring
I mean I don't understand how the distro works and I did it manually
i haven’t installed linux since having a 32bit machine wasn’t crazy
actually that’s cap i’ve installed vms, but i haven’t ran it bare metal for more than a few weeks since then
my last debian install on my chineseum x99 board was barely functional
if i use a laptop on campus it’s usually linux because it’s the only os that doesn’t require spyware for the campus wifi
I don't understand how printers are so terrible on arch
and then i like keeping my school stuff isolated so i use chromium sandboxed for homework rn
Just the most transparent plastic you've ever seen
revolutionary graphics
cyberpunk with pathtracing at 2160p DLAA is still the prettiest game that i’ve seen, but it’s impossible to play
ray reconstruction artifacting gets worse the lower the render res is
smear city
You could have just stopped at the word terrible. No need to bring an OS into it.
how does that run fps wise with the 5090
sub 30 still?
my main tv only gets used for youtube before i sleep
and somehow i still have like 13k hrs on it now after a couple of years
i watch an episode or two of dexter in bed before i sleep
i don’t think this tv does hour tracking though
i need to watch that
i’ve seen so many clips on tiktok, but i think they’re all season 1 which makes me worried that the show falls off after S1
1-2 are best written, 4 is a good stopping point unless you’re invested
s5-8 has been jumping the shark incarnate but i’m committed to finishing it
i know Doakes dies and he seems like a goated character
almost done with s8 now
season 1 roughly retells the first book but after that they do their own thing
i was also doing this but i finished the series 2 days ago
i probably will out of obligation
on my old vizio i could barely see any night scenes
the $170 tcl s5 has paid itself off already

Dude I ordered my wheel stand and wheelbase from the same shop
fuckers shipped the stand first and the wheelbase the next day 
So since its now Sunday there’ll be a 2 day difference
fullfilled by who ? If by Amazon, then it could be two different locations fulfilling your order from 'same store'
not amazon- local seller
you make my earf quake
wait is my oc actually non compeletely unstable???
also is my soc too high?
no but thats the limit i think, maybe 1.25 is
i don't think i can get anymore fclk out of this thing
4200 when
Isn't 1.3 the highest safe voltage for ryzen 5000....?
ryzenb 7000
Ah
lower on am4
Ah
vcore doesn't really mean shit if your not doing a static oc
I cant tell cause of how pixelated it is
also why static oc in 2025
whats the odds i can get 2100mhz fclk
letting tm5 finish before i try
floppa explain why 1933 wheas but 2000 doesn't whea at all
so i have 1900mhz and a 1933 mhz hole
dont remember actual values might be wrong
yteah
Guys, for a new GPU coming from a RX6800. Should I go RTX5070 or RX 9070 ?
that did not work
achip kinda working at 2000 1:1 is crazy
3866 is the general max
can you do 20 trcdrd
Certified not Mac bin™
One sec doing a cmos reset
Tried lowering trfc a little too much
aim for 5070ti
That boy 150€ over my budget tho
that extra money will last you way longer
I need to replace it ASAP since my RX6800 is spitting artifacts and doesn't even boot into windows
Yeah, I get it. But one problem. I do not have that money
save for it or smth
As a student, the 600€ I got to replace my damaged RX6800 was from insurance
Yeah, I would, if I had anything left over at the end of a month worth saving
nope
i'll still take it
can't expect too much from a comboed ram kit yk
Suffer now enjoy later
Bro, doesn't understand that when you need a PC you need it. Also O just checked a RTX5070ti ks around 800-900€
Im not paying that for a 5070 ti
you can literally stick a fuckass useless card or use integrated graphics when you “need” it
gaming is a want
Unless your specific need literally actually uses the GPU
Fair point, only I still kinda refuse to pay nearly a grand for a 5070ti, even if the Benchmarks are phenomenal
Like fr, what is this
I think I going for rx 9070xt
Funnily enough the 5070Ti is the best value card this generation with the prices in the US
rahhh certified mac card
type shit
which is sad
nvidia is scooping mid range
My airpods 2 case lid is dying of death 
What are some good relatively cheap pc fans
Maybe you should try stress testing it with prime95 and see what the power consumption it has.
Today it’s a huge bummer seeing battlefield 6 doesn’t use Ray tracing the great technology ever added to the gaming industry
Instead of featuring amazing graphics that could benefit the current and future generations, they opted it out and chose traditional lighting for a brand new triple A title
Utterly unbelievable
I will vote with my wallet and choose not to purchase this game that doesn’t even offer raytracing as an option
Arctic P12, if you run them at anything else than 1000 RPM
5-pack is like 20-25 euros ?
i use delta 120mm fans
Why not above? I'm using them 3 for out configuration
Delta fans are one of the best ngl
no, i mean exactly 1000 RPM. They whine at that specific RPM
aah okay! good to know, pretty decent. Its gonna cost 34 euro for a 5 pack. Besides the out i can cool my gpu too lol
i thought 2.0 ports worked for windows 7 installations
mines either frozen or just not working
https://youtu.be/H4Y8CEZ3hIA?t=46 watch this around 800-1000 RPM
https://www.arctic.de/en/P12-PWM/ACFAN00119A
Pretty great for the money, if it wasn't for the resonance problem. At least where I live, there are fans which perform similarly with less annoying resonance, like Coolermaster Sickleflow (2020 version) non-RGB. I would be curious to see how this design would perform if it was made out of a LCP.
and 1100 too
Good to know!
Thanks!I, im comparing them atm with thesse Thermalright TL-C12C-S X5 . Also a 5 pack
I mean if the game looks good, raytracing really doesnt matter. I love raytracing but im not gonna turn my nose up to every game that doesn't have it
Sounds like a good bin. Yes I like it
I agree
its weird cause I felt that way about the 4070ti super when that came out too
iirc all of the major tech outlets were glazing the 4070 super and the 4080 super, but in my eyes the 4070ti super was just a budget 4080 the entire time
COMEDY
Lil bro's degraded 5800x is a good bin apparently

this clown still going on about his delta case fans improving his 100c 5800x
Who...??
If you can't tell who.. i'm sorry
nearly everything he says here is ragebait trolling
I sometimes come through here and talk for a bit, I dont scroll up through everything XD
It all started last week when he asked a completely legitimate beginner question. though he didn't like or understand the answer. He had a complete change of demeanor and now everything he says here is trolling like he's some overclocking god and its sad.. he's clueless
Eh just let him burn out his cpu. Maybe then he'll shut up
Takes most people including myself at least a few years to get to this level.
What are they putting in the milk
For some reason my screens both turn black and my mobo gives a yellow light (I'm playing manor lords) how do I fix this?

Is it okay to use a DP to Hdmi cable? Or is it just the same resolution as HDMI to HDMI?
What
How good is the RX 9060 (16GB) in 1440p? I'm thinking of a Ryzen 7 7700x + RX 9060 build but really hesitating because of the GPU. Would it bottleneck the 7700x? I do want the 7700x because I benefit from multi-core preformance outside of gaming but I feel like I may be spending a bit too little on the GPU
Thats not gonna change the resolution unless you're doing 4k
And even then it probably wont
A passive DP to hdmi cable would cap the bandwidth around HDMI 2.0, apparently a lot worse than HDMI - HDMI 2.1
I don’t see a clear bottleneck here for the most use cases
HDMI 2.0 sucks btw and it would cap the resolution to 4K 120HZ 4:2:0 8bit (in other words it sucks)
Damn, so just hdmi to hdmi is better then. I mean my monitor now doesnt even have a dp input
I see people pair the 9060XT with worse CPUs
Or I dont think so atleast
Spending more on gpu won’t hurt of course but yeah
My 7700x handled my 7900XTX just fine
Well, I kind of do want a good 8-core CPU
had mine cut out like a man
What’s the price difference between the 7700x and 9700x for you?
my condolences bro you’ll never be wise or have aura
who needs aura when you have swag
mine fully emerged painlessly and i’ve kept them
45USD
Ok the imc cooks
you gotta run a test for longer than an hour
I just ran it overnight let me check for WHEAs
Well tm5 but same diff
as long as you ran more than occt
How's this for HDR?
No WHEAs but looks like the ram is unstable :(
MORE VOLTAGE
i need to continue my 6000c28 karhu run
i let it do 2h last night but the rgb was annoying me at bed time
Cheap ass 120mm towers have a vibe to them
manhattan clam chowder and dr pepper zero for brunch
I think the BF6 HDR implementation is ok
just why quora
nah, full unsub and delete any account associated with quora
the entire site is full of reaction bait posts and moronic takes that makes the darwin award look like the nobel prize
its one of my main accoutn i use for anything i order online
i dont remember making one...
anyways amma unsub
yeaj aint gonna do forgot pass

I'm not obsessed you are
go fancy sparkles
Those screws are just to hold the radiator while I painted it
Rads are going back in normal but now color matched
what paint did you use?
looks good
Thanks the original white of the rads was very warm. Lian li has a weird cold white with a pink or purple tint it's hard to get right

hello correct tech-chat
@edgy laurel lets gooo i beat gulity
mobo vendors have started saying their b850 boards are zen 6 future proof
Ahhhhh
do yall think b650 boards would also support zen 6
Probably
cause there's an open box b650 eagle ax board for like 105€
unsure if i should spend the extra money on a b850 board
Asus, MSI and Asrock have said that zen6 thing now I think it's ready for zen6 without a bios update?
Oh wait
It's the 64mb bios which gives them support for zen6 hmmm
Eagle AX has a 32mb bios
why wouldnt it
b650 eagle for 105 sounds like robbery but i guess european pricing sucks
From what I'm seeing everyone that are advertising that their boards are zen6 ready is because they have 64mb bios
Open box without tax
yeah that still sounds high
im sure everyone will work something out
i wouldn’t buy an open box motherboard a year in advance though
Yeah but I'm tryna upgrade soon prolly at the end of this month
I can get this for 960€ total while selling my old kit + gpu for 800€ in total
5800x3d + mobo + 32gb ram for 450€ and a 6800xt for 350€
So an am5 upgrade with an x3d cpu + 5070 for 160€
I guess I could get the board and just resell the board later whenever I wanna upgrade to zen6
i doubt the board won't support zen 6
that doesn't mean it won't get zen 6
the current bios images for my board aren't even 16mb yet
and people still got zen 3 on b350 boards with even less space
then just buy a 64mb board now if you're so worried about it
5800x3d -> 7800x3d is barely an upgrade as is
5800x3d 6800xt to 7800x3d 5070 for 160€ sounds pretty nice
going from am4 to am5 only costs me 50-60€
6800xt to 5070 is 100€
or just buy a 5070 now and wait for zen 6 instead of buying a platform you're reselling immediately
since you're clearly not happy with the 32mb eeprom
idk am5 for 50-60€ doesn't sound like a bad idea
you're not keeping the board so it's not really worth it but
i don't care that much about your money to debate it further
I like to switch out my hardware often so idm
but to me a 5800x3d to 7800x3d for only 20-60€ sounds sweet
I could even get the upgrade for free if i buy everything used except cpu
or is that too much
Money
reverse profile fans look weird
I'm probably going to order another three normal fans and run them as bottom exhaust since I don't tend to run a side panel
What build is this
285K 5090 custom custom loop
What type of temps do people usually see on a 6800xt
@fringe vigil
I was playing Black Myth Wukong and mine runs 75c with hotspot around 93-95c.
Is this too high? It feels too high. I have ptm on the gpu, and noctua fans strapped to the cooler instead of the default fans
Thanks, I have it coming in metal
should have when with hard tubes would have been easier
especially metal tube like copper or aluminum
best thing
easiest
hard tubing is easier?
soft tubes are hard for custom looping
yup especially metal have u ever done with aluminium
it is the easies shit of ur life
u put it in the forge and js bend it
Uhhhh
@bitter shuttle I've done many hard tubing builds and it's not easier
So I have smth to ask
I have a 7700xt bought mid summer with a r5 7600x . I am upgrading my monitor to 1440p in a few days and I want to ask , if I upgrade to a 9060xt will I see much of an improvement?
I was asking because it will have more vram that's the only factor
i wouldn't buy a card till you were looking for 5070 or faster
anything below that you're not even getting ~30% more perf
lmao your custom loop looks amazing
mines a little
I don't have the 12 pin cable from the PSU , I should use the 12pin cable to 8pins that provides if that's okay
<@&750150305383186585> scam

whar is going on
idk some dude posted some random video
why de moderators not remove my messagez me clearly try ing to skam
Akn salty I posted but dont worry I took it down you dam softie
???
it's an insane video to post to a chat called "tech-chat-2"
what was itt
tech
R.i.p power supply he's in power supply heaven now😿
the guy who simply input 230v into the psu and it blew, according to him more than to 10% of seasonic psus happens this or they trip breakers
considering i had a seasonic platform trip my breakers due to inrush current it makes it believable
i mean, he clearly owned a dozen of seasonic psus
fortunately it occurs on the AC side so no damage to components if your unit blows up
you also have videos on youtube of seasonic psus blowing up
Are seasonic known for blowing up or?
the opposite
most of their mid-high end lineup are excellent, and also priced like a golden brick
but focus gold had issues all over it’s history, like fx tripping ocp/opp when you paired it with a gpu that had higher transient spikes and gx mainly tripping breakers due to inrush and blowing up
For some reason my screens both turn black and my mobo gives a yellow light (I'm playing manor lords) how do I fix this?
Lol oh god
Iso bath time!
Little accident
Like honestly gigabyte wtf
Bro who thought this shit was ok
This is disgusting. That guy from the verge got promoted I guess
would you like some more card with your goop?
fixed
Is the 16 core 7945hx a good pairing with the rtx 5060 8 gb?
@shell void one of my neighbors bought ewaste
many such cases
Scamsung :(
the scamsung crystal is so bad even my mom hated it in store
No one should be buying any Scamsung displays
what are u on
do i live in a alernate universe or something alluminium hard tube looping is easier than installing a 120mm fan to a tower cooler
i wamt chinese and taiwanese oleds
In LG Display we trust 🙏
but not many manufacturers put them in western brands :ccc
LameGreed
what about BOE
LG G5 my beloved
i imvested into boe
they sell cheap display that are actually good
Tandem W-OLED
OK the trolling is lame
they tarnished their reputation with few crappy panels and poor qc
yeah immediately felt like I was reading bait
nah its ur problem u are the one who cant do the easiest method of cooling
honestly i would invest into innolux or auo if i were just picking based on panel quality
bait bait and bait to the finish line
OK cool
I think moms home, time to clean up your room
am 35

yeah fr
painful
hurts

all am keeping up with is tech and more tech and more tech
@steel stream blocked that dude - way too irritating lol

oh god
is linux the future for gaming? hard to believe when battlefield 6 doesnt even support steamdeck and actively blocks Proton and Wine.
it is purely a anti cheat problem
considering the solution to making stuff work on linux is either emulating windows or shipping a bunch of shared binaries i wouldn’t be calling it the future
Sexy
You'd be surprised what makes up every piece of software you use
guys can someone help
i thoight my D disk was corrupted so i ran the fix in command prompt, but it says it will take a couple of hours, but i need to turn off my pc now, what can i do
well you better not turn off your pc now
do i have to wait until its done?
Yes
shit
snail on the gpu cause it’s slow af
pretty pcb after it’s cleaned
the before shot is a thing of nightmares
Did they just dump paste on the whole thing
they must've wanted those capacitors cooled
it’s a thermal gel
Euh
It's got liquid metal in the core paste too
So the SMDs around the core are epoxied over
over 20 grams of it
when are you getting a ultrasonic cleaner?
I have one
why dont you give it a bath then?
I did ...
How else do you think like 3 ounces of paste went away
just give it fresh fluid and more time then
Now I have like a gallon of 99% IPA airing out
Nah I'm good, I'm not a fan of buzzing large mass component to death
r u gonna liquid metal that sumbitch snail?
you used IPA in the ultrasonic cleaner?
so like whenever you inevitably decide to sell this card... what pads can be used on it? lol
gotta get the lowest temps possible 🙏
No....
PTM
good
🐔
I rinse in IPA
sell it with the waterblock attached i guess
A shit ton of TG Putty or sell it blocked
word
6090 isnt coming out until january 2027 so we have a long time for people to figure out what pads are good to replace the goo with

(it's comforting to know that i dont have to think about my gpu for a while)
im not nearly as enthusiastic about GPUs as i am with CPUs because tuning them requires mods
and there arent any good stress tests
what will come out first 7090 or gta 6 for pc
imagine we dont get a pc port until late 2028
like 3 months before the 7090 comes out
Is there a fix to this I have an rtx 5060 laptop gpu and it’s not using its full potential it using 180mhz of my gpu clock
(Here is an image)
Bold of you to assume the the 7090 releases that soon
That sounds so expensive....and sticky 🍺
@shell void paramount plus is forcing on dolby vision for some reason
so i’m just rocking the 350nit dv, 350 nits more than an s90d can do
and a waste of a good beer
Now we debate if any IPA can be called a good beer
Actually I kid
2025 has been my year of IPA exploration, and I hate to admit, they're not terrible
I prefer a sour
Looks great! Now don’t let anyone smoke near that. I saw a white build yesterday that had turned yellow 🤮
No smoking here, but also I have O11D color matched paint
Hello, I have a small question. I recently bought a 9800X3D, and I’m wondering if I should return it and get a 9600X (272,28$ cheaper) instead. I play games at 1440p and plan to upgrade to the next RDNA 70/80 GPU within the next year or two (when they’re released). Is that a good idea, or should I keep the 9800X3D?
thats up to you, I use a 7800x3d for 1440p gaming, it def does help in some situations
depends on what games you play imo
at the same time keeping the 9800x3d means that a cpu upgrade won't be needed anytime soon
Basically, I’ve been wondering because I compared some videos comparing the 9700XT with the 9600X, 9700X, 9800X3D, and 9950X3D, and in most games, the difference in CPU performance seems marginal. Also, I came across this article — TechSpot review
— and it made me think that maybe I overpaid, and that the money could have been better spent on the GPU I plan to buy next year. :>
well you have it now, I wouldn't want a lesser cpu since the 9800x3d destroys at gaming
its just a great all rounder
I know, I’m not saying that the 9800X3D is a bad CPU at all — most reviewers are singing its praises. I’m just wondering if it’s really worth it. Like I said, the performance differences are pretty marginal, and you only really see a noticeable gap when using something like a 5090-level GPU. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpN4nyftQ3M&t=618s

Radeon RX 9070 XT - https://geni.us/...
its game dependent
just keep it
it will allow you to use it for longer before upgrading
bigger upfront cost but saves money in the long run
the only situations I’d get a 9800x3d is if Im already guaranteed to get at LEAST a 5070Ti
That's also true.
the money you save right now returning it is just money you'll spend sooner upgrading to a newer cpu
I plan to get 70/80 calls UDNA card when it releases.
so it's posible that i would get CPU bound by 9600x
