Imagine you bought a $750 new R9 3950x back in the day to "future proof" just for the $450 r7 5800x3d to curb stomp it a few years later. The better option would have been to buy a $200 R5 3600 then upgrading to the 5800x3d for a total of $750 the same price as the 3950x

if you go 2-3 more cpus into a socket don’t pretend it’s a value anymore

like no it’s just consuming

Hey 1600 to 3600 is a good performance jump

[steel stream]

consoom

[pallid marsh]

3600 to 5600 was meh

am4 was a funny socket because if you just got an 8700k you’d have spent less up until the zen 3 x3d stuff

3600x was similar to a stock 8700k if I recall right

5800x radeon 6600-12600k 3070 to 9950x 5090 buttt (I also played with algos and did testing yada yada rada rada)

[steel stream]

that's pretty decent, especially the 5090

[young void]

There's a few other builds in between ofc ofc

[edgy laurel]

i wouldn't think someone into hardware would also agree that its a value upgrade. they just buy the new thing for fun

i can say I at least skipped zen2

[young void]

After mid tier it is all for funs though

so you want a DAS...

[brave panther]

bro needs a nas

[brave panther]

how about a usb4 network card to a nas ?

[warped mountain]

Maybe the problem was this I remember trying to do this about 3 years ago and we ended up with too much creep in what we were looking for.

And like streaming is really convenient but I prefer to get the best quality possible so I don't really want to trans Go down based on network link.

[brave panther]

local transfer can easily be done at 10g

[warped mountain]

With USB 4 even if I'm moving 120 gig file it's not going to take forever. Granted particularly I probably should have gotten a 1TB Mac since some of my media files are 100GB ...

[edgy laurel]

you don't have datarates that would be affected by a network link

[warped mountain]

Yes, but I also , at this time, don't have home internet.

[edgy laurel]

Thats interesting but the question was about a NAS, so home internet wouldn't be relevant at all

[brave panther]

you dont need internet to have a network up and running

[warped mountain]

Oh my God I think you remember when I tried to do this like 2 years ago 💀💀 I had to stop because I think we ended up with like $8,000 in drives ...

I don't want to know what it is now.. but a lot of these drives are approaching 20 years when do I have to start worrying about bit rot???

[warped mountain]

Oh but like I don't even have like Wi-Fi like nothing.

I think it could be designed to add networking later right?

[pallid marsh]

Yeah $8k in HDD for a moving vehicle right?

[brave panther]

1.st what is the space requirement
2. what is the budget

[warped mountain]

No no I know but if I'm in my home like I could just grab the local file off of a piece of copper.

[edgy laurel]

what drives do you have that you use regularly approaching 20 years old. calling BS on that one

[warped mountain]

We're about to have me build a whole ass Data Center 😱

[warped mountain]

Yeah butt .. I don't remember how much data we had but I remember it being obnoxious and then when we talked about redundancy I think we were approaching 100 TB 👀🤯

[brave panther]

no lmao
one relativly small box and a 30$ switch(optional)

[topaz veldt]

Fast sumbish

[pallid marsh]

Did you get the 512gb model?

[warped mountain]

I'll find out later with the bigger drives. Like how much is actually on there but I know both of those eight terabytes are definitely full and so is that red 8 terabyte and then so is the Samsung QVO wherever the hell it is..

So that right there is 32 TB. And then we have to go through all my m.2's and I have multiple 4 TB ones.

I do think that when we last went over this I think I had 60 terabytes of actual data not just hard drive size. And then we talked about hey how we're going to do it in redundancy

[warped mountain]

Yeah ... I lowkey forgot about all this until I realized that I didn't have half the shit I thought I did on my Lenovo and then I went to the storage unit was like oh yeah that's right....

[pallid marsh]

You wanna talk about your data hoarding addiction?

[warped mountain]

Butt to be fair the one I currently have a thunderbolt 5 even if I downgrade it's going to still be thunderbolt 4 I can get enclosures that'll rock that. Hell I have my u green ones though those are kind of big but those are rated for full USB 4 speeds bidirectional.

And then I was at micro Center and I think crucial or somebody has the brand new drives that could do 17,000 as externals 👀

[warped mountain]

Yoo I do remember like 4 years ago I had everything really redundant and I needed more space and I didn't want to buy more drives cuz I know I was going to need to eventually build an ass and that's why it has balloons so badly cuz otherwise it would be half because I had everything duplicated

[brittle mortar]

i wonder if windows 10 has native support for usb 4

[pallid marsh]

[edgy laurel]

welcome to this saga spanning what seems like 72 hours now.

[warped mountain]

Wait it was these #tech-chat-2 message .. I think that's USB 4 speed. And I think those are the fastest externals currently on sale..

If so my you Green solution is way the fuck cheaper. Because you just throw a 4 TB m.2 .. although I do like fancy m.2 as I did see a lot of boxes for 4 TB Samsung pros 😅

[warped mountain]

Well there's actually a lot of number of things that used to be available just on the internet

but have since been deleted because of hosting costs and everything so there's a lot of stuff that I literally cannot get anymore.

[brave panther]

How much usable storage space do you want?

[warped mountain]

Remember old Mega 👀 pepperidge farm does

[warped mountain]

Oh no I was talking about pairing the Mac with an external drive because I only got a 512 gig.

[warped mountain]

As far as the NAS, I won't be able to let you know until later cuz I actually need to plug everything in cuz I don't remember and as much as I can do a message search it's probably not accurate anymore because I've added at least four drives since last year.

[pallid marsh]

JB weld a m.2 enclosure to the Mac

Wonder if anyone has done that...

[young void]

Lol silly geese

[warped mountain]

And of course the reason why I have to add drives is because oems put stupid shit like QLC drives in shit and makes them disgusting to use...

use adaptive sync

or just change monitor res to 240

[edgy laurel]

Its fine. but yes use in conjunction with VSync and Adaptivesync

Replace GSync with Freesync if you have an AMD card

everything still applies

why on earth do you have two (or more) local logins

[warped mountain]

No, connecting to wifi.

[warped mountain]

I have one login with username and password to access main network

Butt we have a guest no login network too. So I put one on that so I can do 750mbps

All my drives I have to reformat to exFat 😭.

[brave panther]

[warped mountain]

Wouldn't I still have the read only issue with the drives?

[shrewd mantle]

4tb ssd recs?

[hoary hatch]

9100 Pro

crucial T710

[brave panther]

no, block storage format is abstracted by some file transfer protocol (tipicaly smb)

[proven cairn]

Usecase?

[turbid locust]

this is not what the thread said but

[cerulean mason]

right but on games like fn u can't put a custom fps cap, its all presets

🤷‍♂️

[turbid locust]

global in nvidia control panel

[cerulean mason]

fair so do that and leave ingame fps uncapped?

[turbid locust]

yeah

[cerulean mason]

even for single player games like lets say GOW ragnarok i wanna run at max graphics, that will never hit my monitors refresh rate

[turbid locust]

setting it lower than your global will still work

[warped mountain]

Wicked fast 🏎️

[cerulean mason]

right so i could cap story games ingame to like 120 or 144 for smooth stable fps

[turbid locust]

yeah

[cerulean mason]

got it

[shrewd mantle]

Uhhh “normal use”? I don’t think they’re heavy video editing or transferring massive files consistently other than like videos and stuff

[proven cairn]

Ok

[proven cairn]

Sn7100

Nvm dramless

Idk

[edgy laurel]

sn7100 is more than fine for the majority of people

[shrewd mantle]

Gotcha I’ll prolly suggest that then thank ya

[proven cairn]

990 evo plus is also the same price

Is samsung still the most poggers nvme maker?

[edgy laurel]

no, and there is zero real world difference

[shell void]

no they dont have the absolute best drive, but they do have some good drives

990 pro (not evo, and not evo plus)
9100 pro

[shrewd mantle]

Oh yea what about a psu for a 7600x and 9070xt

[shell void]

WD SN850X and SM 990 Pro are usually the best value drives in the USA

Sk-Hynix Platinum P41 is good too

[warped mountain]

another one

[spare tinsel]

is there any way to open two task manager
or like a second program that is similar

[edgy laurel]

sounds like a prime XY question

User wants to do X.
User doesn't know how to do X, but thinks they can fumble their way to a solution if they can just manage to do Y.
User doesn't know how to do Y either.
User asks for help with Y.
Others try to help user with Y, but are confused because Y seems like a strange problem to want to solve.
After much interaction and wasted time, it finally becomes clear that the user really wants help with X, and that Y wasn't even a suitable solution for X

so back up and explain Y first

[spare tinsel]

task manager likes to do this very often

so im looking for something that is similar

[edgy laurel]

So you're looking to ignore the deeper corruption with your system and instead just run another application

sounds like a great idea

[fringe vigil]

Sup

[karmic folio]

process hacker / system informer

heres system informer

[spare tinsel]

alright

[devout ridge]

you could also just solve the problem with your system

[spare tinsel]

see

i need to open task manager to see what is causing the problem

[devout ridge]

if task manager is hanging there’s other more pressing issues with your computer

[spare tinsel]

and when i open task amanger its not responding

so i have no idea what is causing it

[edgy laurel]

thats why you perform general fixes and see what changes, or wipeand start over

[gloomy gulch]

Hi guys, was wondering if this is a good pc for Minecraft Java:

AWD-IT 3D Glass Ryzen 5 5500 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 8GB White Gaming PC

[karmic folio]

u can also use process explorer

[devout ridge]

will work, just a lackluster CPU

[gloomy gulch]

I’m kinda dumb what does lackluster mean

[steel stream]

that will be fine

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel notice anything?

[warped mountain]

So you can play BL4 on Lunar Lake iGPU, it will be old school console at 30FPS, but it is "playable". I suggest a 32GB lunar lake though since it's unified memory.

[edgy laurel]

[young void]

Myte just be them new bright ones

[vestal granite]

thats item #1 of the $900 car payment starter kit right there

[young void]

Then they turn on the real bright lights and send you to the shadow realm xD

[pure garnet]

bald tires are a performance mod that's all

[vestal granite]

less grip means you get more distance out of the momentum, better mpg

unless its raining but good thing it never rains in miami (it rains everyday in miami)

i think my gpu is cooked

40series is so shit

[turbid locust]

oh no the 4050

[edgy laurel]

jorj

[fringe vigil]

why all of a sudden my gpu keeps crashing

[edgy laurel]

i don't think you're really qualitifed to diagnose whatever your problem is, sorry

games crashing does not automatically mean its your GPU

[fringe vigil]

did nvidia send crashing spies to iniltrate my gpu

[fringe vigil]

no its bsod randomly sometimes or if im in premier pro or rendering something

its got to be

[edgy laurel]

that doesn't sound like a GPU at all

[fringe vigil]

then what

psu?

why does the gpu just turn off then

[edgy laurel]

os corruption, weird BIOS settings, bad PSU, GPU drivers/hardware, RAM.. who knows. no sense in guessing, you have to test for things

[fringe vigil]

i DDU it

and still crashing

[edgy laurel]

that sucks. what happens without XMP on? What happens after running SFC? what about a fresh windows install? BIOS update?

[fringe vigil]

how do i update bios

and wtf is SFC

[edgy laurel]

on second thought i can't guide you through that

[low sorrel]

lol

[fringe vigil]

i tried that

but in widnows power shell

it didnt workj though it kept saying u need a command to enable the scan

[frank zealot]

Sfc is command prompt not power shell

[low sorrel]

what

[fringe vigil]

well some dumb mf in a discord was saying powershell

[edgy laurel]

works just fine in powershell

probably weren't running as admin

[fringe vigil]

THIS SHIT what command???

[low sorrel]

run in admin

[low sorrel]

can confirm

icl i almost wrote sudo sfc /scannow

[frank zealot]

Run cmd as admin

[edgy laurel]

works just fine

[merry stirrup]

powershell was made to replace cmd and a lot of commands work from it

[merry stirrup]

not to replace but you get it

[low sorrel]

actually has my name

[merry stirrup]

mostly overtake

[fringe vigil]

okay its scanning i think

[edgy laurel]

what command are you running

sfc or dism

[topaz veldt]

"ls"

[topaz veldt]

Oh god

[edgy laurel]

not even sfc lol

[topaz veldt]

I can't

[fringe vigil]

so shall i rpelace dism with sfc

[edgy laurel]

well you might as well let that finish

[fringe vigil]

okay

[steel stream]

me omw to TC2 to not take any of the advice given to me

[edgy laurel]

sfc /scannow

[low sorrel]

why are you using dism

[edgy laurel]

jerry, he doesn't know

[edgy laurel]

someone gave that to him

[fringe vigil]

is this the full command

[edgy laurel]

yes

[edgy laurel]

i know the video thats from and i've watched it 10+ times

[raw zinc]

does this mean my SSD is failing?

[topaz veldt]

Whenever I say dism aloud

[edgy laurel]

no

[raw zinc]

what does it mean

device turns off and turns on for 5 seconds

[edgy laurel]

https://youtu.be/FssULNGSZIA?list=RDFssULNGSZIA

[raw zinc]

turns on then shows this

[edgy laurel]

it explains the problem at the bottom but to be honest that sentence makes no sense. Its possible from some quick googling that your CMOS battery may be dead/dying

9th gen CPU I could see that

replace it

[raw zinc]

i did change the cmos

what

my cpu is failing?

[fringe vigil]

now what

[edgy laurel]

huh?

[raw zinc]

or u just recommend ti change it

ah just a recomendation

[edgy laurel]

i recommended changing the CMOS battery

[raw zinc]

i changed it not too long ago ngl

ill change it again rq i think i have spares

[young void]

Duracells good, Amazon also recently started up some coin cells havent had any qualms with

they're def not farm to table like duracell

[fervent elm]

Yk
My laptop is an asus, with liquid metal
And it did the die
Hmmm

[fringe vigil]

What do I save my fan settings in

[young void]

Bios. Usb etc is for saving a profile externally incase of anything and you want it on the go (note sometimes this won't apply properly after certain bios revisions if not the same as when saved)

[fringe vigil]

It said failed on saving, error code unsupported lol

[young void]

Weird

[fringe vigil]

Also my xmp was off wtf

Worm is updating bios hard

[young void]

Just adjusting then save and quiting should apply to bios. The bios option myte just be for a quick profile but still unsure why it'd fail

[young void]

Just download from site extract and rename if it sais to. Open bios, go to ez menu and run the bios flash then just leaving it till it puts you in windows. But first time can be hard for some

[fringe vigil]

I need a guide

[young void]

What exact motherboard? Ill getcha a visual + link

[inland wind]

Google the guide

You download a bios update, toss it onto a usb stick

Stick it into your motherboard

Then find an Update BIOS or UEFI

Click, select the file

[young void]

Its not so bad

[fringe vigil]

Send me

[inland wind]

Naw

[young void]

I need your motherboard model fam

[inland wind]

Teach yourself to google dude don’t abuse worm

He’s too kind to yoh

[fringe vigil]

b650 arous elite atx

[young void]

You mean AX? Just double checking

https://youtu.be/LrwP29lYQ-I?si=9C2ifpPn643snTbO

This?

[fringe vigil]

no atx

whats ax lol

[inland wind]

Take a box pic

[fringe vigil]

cant

[steel stream]

thats 850 jorj

[young void]

If i send the wrong bios it won't be fun

[fringe vigil]

here

[young void]

With the pc on on hwinfo64

[inland wind]

It’s ax

[young void]

Show me the screenshot of the motherboard section

[fringe vigil]

yh your were right

its AX

[inland wind]

!!!!! Very important

[fringe vigil]

what section

[young void]

All good just show that screenshot and I gotchu itll show up under motherboard

[fringe vigil]

im telling u thats the board i got

[young void]

Then this yeah

https://download.gigabyte.com/FileList/BIOS/mb_bios_b650-aorus-elite-ax_8arpl105_f37d.zip?v=5b3b9363ff4dfa58d972bb143b0e2331

Via here for future refrence https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B650-AORUS-ELITE-AX-rev-10-11/support

[fringe vigil]

whats this one

[young void]

The website to find the update in the future or to refrence what the bios update does

[fringe vigil]

just this

put that on my usb

[wise bear]

did you extract the files first

[young void]

Then put it on a usb extracted, boot to bios and fallow the vid in bios. (Once started the key is patience and waiting)

[fringe vigil]

hmm okay ty

[young void]

Once it starts let me know

[fringe vigil]

how often do u need to update bios, ive never done it

[young void]

I only do it upon first arrival if the bios adds support to something I want or to fix

[turbid locust]

plat val players need to be studied

[young void]

Or sometimes just because

[fringe vigil]

can it fix BSOD

[young void]

Likely not especially if a new issue

If upon firstboot type deal maybe to add x ram or cpu or gpu support

Lol we did have someone's mobo that didnt have xmp/expo in the ez start bios menu till it got updated was weird

[dawn plover]

Unless you want new support for hardware or security updates, you generally don't need to. If yours is a few years out of date though, it really wouldn't hurt to update

[fringe vigil]

hmm

[dawn plover]

like new BIOS updates add security patches, stability fixes, and support for new hardware

[young void]

Every time you get a new motherboard seeing your version in bios or hwinfo64 is good

Then checking the mobos exact site to see what's changed since that revision in the bios update tab

Some motherboards will arrive on the latest (while rare) and some older

[fringe vigil]

wizard what do u think is causing my bsod

i did ddu, it worked okay today but later it just happened again

[dawn plover]

does the bsod say anything useful or nah?

[fringe vigil]

bsod when launching a game, bsod when im using prmeier pro, or exporting something

no event finder says pc shut down unexpectedly

[dawn plover]

I think it's unlikely, but it wouldn't hurt to update

[fringe vigil]

a guy checked my dump files and said the gpu timed out?

[inland wind]

are all your components set all the way?

[fringe vigil]

wym

theyre in

[inland wind]

I meant a what I said

Are they all the way in

To the click

[fringe vigil]

yh obvs

[dawn plover]

he's saying reseat your GPU and RAM

[fringe vigil]

i did i took my gpu out and ram

[dawn plover]

without actually saying it for some reason lol

[fringe vigil]

i reseated it

i think the gpu might be bec i have to lift it up abit to seat the gpu so i can screw it in properly

[inland wind]

I choose violence

[dawn plover]

if the GPU is actually timing out, that could be for various reasons

[fringe vigil]

such as

[dawn plover]

dying GPU, overheating maybe?

my first thought would be drivers tho, but you said you checked that already?

[fringe vigil]

nah its not overheating

[fringe vigil]

i did ddu yh

why would it be dying though tf

[dawn plover]

hmmm what about your power to the GPU? how is it plugged in

[warped mountain]

Do y'all think the new black ops will be a return to grandaur of Black ops 2/3 ??

[fringe vigil]

idk two cable thingys at the back of psu and then 8 single ones in pairs connected to that 12vh pwoer cable thingy nvidia gives you to connect in gpu

[dawn plover]

uh someone else pls confirm, idk how 12VHPWR works

[livid flame]

Electricity

[fringe vigil]

Like that

[dawn plover]

no but I mean like idk how you plug in the adapter to regular 8-pin cables

[livid flame]

At this point just disconnect the middle fan

[fringe vigil]

Pardon? Wym

[livid flame]

1 cable per adapter cable

[livid flame]

90% of the surface area is covered by the cables and massive adapter connection

Surprised it isn’t rattling

[fringe vigil]

Nah it’s cool

[dawn plover]

yeah ok that makes sense, but there's 3? 4? on the adapter

[fringe vigil]

It’s actually not touching the middle fan

[livid flame]

Is that a 3070FE?

[fringe vigil]

4090 sir

[livid flame]

Noice

Oh I just see the 4th cable now. My bad.

[young void]

After you ddu did you re update with the Nvidia app?

[fringe vigil]

No

[young void]

Brb

[livid flame]

Wait what.

[young void]

https://us.download.nvidia.com/nvapp/client/11.0.5.420/NVIDIA_app_v11.0.5.420.exe

[fringe vigil]

I was using photoshop just now and it BSOd lol

[young void]

Happens

[fringe vigil]

Sigh im so done lol

[young void]

Download and use game ready drivers ❤️ on express install. Screen will go black 1 to 3 times wait for it to say success finished

[livid flame]

Nvidia drivers lol

[fringe vigil]

Nvidia so shit

[livid flame]

Makes 2010 Radeon look competent

And that’s saying something

[fringe vigil]

What’s downloading the app gonna do different wormy

[young void]

Auto grabs the latest and efficient drivers and ensures no mistakes if using the express install

Also has some neat settings but for another time

[fringe vigil]

I installed the latest ones form the Nvidia site

[livid flame]

I guess when Radeon drivers were shit they were consistent. Issues were replicable. Nvidia though hell, black screen? Random af

[young void]

App wouldn't hurt to verify its good

If so itll just say your on latest

[livid flame]

I mean at this point you’re saying he’s the problem

[young void]

Happens

[livid flame]

If he manually chooses or express installs the same driver… it is the same driver

[fringe vigil]

should i optmise of deselect

[young void]

Yes just leave it

[livid flame]

And if you’re saying he can’t do that he may aswell just give up with tech

[young void]

No deths

Tskkk

Its just a nice tool is all, I appreciate good work

[young void]

See ez pz and now you can check that off

[livid flame]

If it works. Is it just rubbish Nvidia drivers being random again or is Nvidia purposefully giving out a bad driver file? 🤔

[fringe vigil]

they were already installed

[livid flame]

I guess if it don’t work it’s the former still

[young void]

Jorjs had a handful of issues i cant pinpoint unfortunately. We've suspected psu awhile ago though

[livid flame]

I almost miss the days when Nvidia was king but ATi was rapidly gaining traction

[fringe vigil]

idk at this point

[young void]

Can check cables but kinda suck a local tech shop can diagnose for $100 or so

Mytve went up in this economy

[fringe vigil]

someone said test it in another pc

[livid flame]

Just random crashes?

[young void]

While he games or does anything extensive it'd seem*

[livid flame]

So the first point of call is a hotspot thermal issue

[fringe vigil]

random, but not so common, but bsod in premier pro, photoshop and when i launch a game, instant BSOD

[ripe needle]

That isn’t unnecessary rgb

[livid flame]

Although some dream big, some dream small

[livid flame]

All RGB is unnecessary

[gilded quail]

Yeah a lot of unnecessary stuff there

[ripe needle]

Its a dream build

You think im buying it? 💀

Not until i get money

[gilded quail]

It's poorly budgeted

[edgy laurel]

Listen, @ripe needle, dreams are great but if you're going to come into a public settings clearly a little inexperienced and throw a build out there, expect some criticism. Learn from it. VERY sus decisions made putting that together especially since its a "dream" build in which cost has no meaning.

At the very least dream of current generation parts. Did you not realize?

It would be a very poor decision to wait and wait till you do get the money and then spend it on even more outdated parts by that time.

Construct a dream build with suggestions by someone who knows what they're doing, not just parts you heard were good.

[ripe needle]

Idk what parts are good anymore

[edgy laurel]

Lucky

I have to wait until December for my first snowfall

[ripe needle]

@edgy laurel https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dMpWNz how’s this?

[proven cairn]

Get the burst assassin for 3$ more

[ripe needle]

Why?

[proven cairn]

Better

Motherboard is overpriced

Also why that old ass case?

[ripe needle]

No it’s not

[ripe needle]

Optical bay

[proven cairn]

Fym no it’s not

[ripe needle]

Same rpm so

[turbid locust]

LOOOOOOL

[proven cairn]

That’s the fan 🙁

[ripe needle]

Same thing

[proven cairn]

The burst has 2 more heatpipes on each side

That’s like 2 more degrees of coolness

Anyways doesn’t the pop air have space for a disc drive?

[proven cairn]

It does

Is it on the pop mini though

[proven cairn]

It does

[ripe needle]

Whats that?

[proven cairn]

A case

[ripe needle]

I like the one i picked better tbh

[proven cairn]

Why the hell are the pop airs all 100$ now

That’s some bs

[devout ridge]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ cheaper for better RAM and cooler

[ripe needle]

I wanna hide my components

[proven cairn]

They used to be like 70$

[proven cairn]

That’s not the permalink

You js copied the url

[devout ridge]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Xf8yjn lol whoops

[ripe needle]

Cl 46 and no cooler 🥀

[proven cairn]

That’s your list bozo

[devout ridge]

because it's showing you your own list cause i copied the wrong link

[ripe needle]

Oh makes sense

[proven cairn]

95$ for a disc drive in the big 25

[ripe needle]

Wait i picked cl46?

[proven cairn]

Yes

[ripe needle]

I sorted for cl30- tho 😭

[devout ridge]

cl46 5600 at that

[ripe needle]

No way bru

False advertising

[devout ridge]

you likely set cl30 as the minimum instead of the maximum

[proven cairn]

Yes way brotato

[ripe needle]

Mistakes happen

[ripe needle]

I thought i set it the maximum oh well

[devout ridge]

evidently not

[proven cairn]

Do they still make 5600mhz CL28 kits?

[ripe needle]

Is there a better opitical drive?

[proven cairn]

I haven’t seen one in a while

[pure garnet]

i can’t imagine there’s any reason to actually bin for that anymore

[ripe needle]

Back in my day

[devout ridge]

Nope, all CL28 kits are 6000mt/s

[proven cairn]

Ok

[indigo walrus]

Is an Optical Drive something you need to use multiple times per week? Or is it more of a once in a while "when I need it" thing?

[ripe needle]

I have a lot of dvds and empty cds

[pure garnet]

usb readers aren’t that expensive

[ripe needle]

Physical media is my favorite

[devout ridge]

That's not an answer

[ripe needle]

I use it multiple times per day

Thats why i bought a console

[indigo walrus]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/6fJwrH/lite-on-optical-drive-ihas12414

[devout ridge]

If i may, why are you so fond of physical media?

[ripe needle]

I grew up in the 2000’s

No i didnt

[proven cairn]

Games not licenses boiiii

[devout ridge]

So nostalgia is your reason?

[ripe needle]

In case anything goes wrong in the world the physical media will still work

[pure garnet]

i grew up in the 2000s and i don’t need scrap lying around

[ripe needle]

Plus its so cheap

[devout ridge]

Like what?

[ripe needle]

The purge

[devout ridge]

Anything that would destroy a harddrive would destroy a DVD

[pure garnet]

ignoring disc rot i guess

[ripe needle]

Heres the situation i see in my head

[devout ridge]

and with harddrives i can have redundancy, whereas with a dvd a single deep scratch can ruin the media

[ripe needle]

Someone breaks into my house, they see my pc, “damn is that an hp pavilion?”, They leave

[devout ridge]

NAS

[brisk jolt]

what bro says before sitting his fatass on it:

[devout ridge]

all roads lead to rome NAS

[proven cairn]

Hi Pulse

[echo hedge]

@ripe needle i mean, if linus comes to ur house and drops ur dvds, they will be fine, if he drops ur hdd, theyre fucked, so ur logic makes sens to me

[ripe needle]

If all roads lead to rome then all roads lead away from rome as well 🤔

[devout ridge]

lies, i don't turn around

[echo hedge]

hey hey

my pc needs to hurry tf up, im bored and wanna build it

[ripe needle]

Every night and then i get a little bit lonely

[echo hedge]

every now* and then

[ripe needle]

Same thing

[echo hedge]

TURRRN AROUND

[ripe needle]

Holy brain fog

[proven cairn]

Nah it’s a big circle

[ripe needle]

The circle is inside rome

Together we are rome!

[fringe ether]

DM me

[indigo walrus]

DM you ... about what?

[fringe ether]

Not talking to you @indigo walrus

[indigo walrus]

True. You weren't replying to anyone - it's just weird to see a random message that says "DM me" with no context.

[ripe needle]
