You'd know lol

turbid locust
#

I lowk don’t gaf cause what am I gonna do? Not cook?

topaz veldt
#

if you're using stainless and not super proficient you won't cook because its a nightmare to clean

steel stream
# topaz veldt You'd know lol

i remember the first time my brother was using stainless and it had it on medium high then threw in a tablespoon of butter

#

PWHOOOOOSHHHHH

topaz veldt
#

yeah no

#

you gotta put that shit in med low and bring it up

turbid locust
#

Yeah I just checked, it’s stainless

fringe vigil
#

I don’t eat breakfast ngl

topaz veldt
#

thats unfortuntaely a common sight

steel stream
#

i just do oil typically on stainless

turbid locust
#

cause I hate cleaning the bitches

topaz veldt
#

if you get it right cleaning is like.... a paper towel

steel stream
#

yeah

topaz veldt
#

otherwise...

turbid locust
steel stream
#

luckily no one in my apartment has fucked up the stainless too bad yet

#

the bottom side is a little dirty but you don't cook with that side!

topaz veldt
#

I will flip and omlette in stailness and let out a "OH YEAH"

#

and my wife is like "wtf"

#

"Its all good you wouldn't understand"

I’m excited for the P2S tomorrow

#

My pc doesnt boot if I have two sata devices connected what can I do

turbid locust
#

use one SATA device

wise bear
#

Yes god please feed me this

@shell void

I narrowed it down now, and it doesnt boot when using a controller that gets powered trough sata

what "controller"?

craggy wigeon
young void
frank cypress
#

lol i somehow corrupted windows so bad I couldn't even reinstall without nuking my entire ssd

#

I say somehow but I know exactly why

young void
edgy laurel
craggy wigeon
#

sata power

#

the flat thing connected to the psu

young void
#

Oh Derps

edgy laurel
#

two very different things

craggy wigeon
#

is that not the same thing

#

ffs mb

edgy laurel
#

SATA is a data connection for drives, SATA power is just a common name for a power connector to power drives as well as numerous accessories

craggy wigeon
#

yeah well my pc shits itself when the controller is connected to the sata power

edgy laurel
#

So you're saying this PC doesn't boot up when you have one specific RGB controller plugged into the PSU?

craggy wigeon
#

I have two controllers, both are like laxatives for my pc

craggy wigeon
#

theres a short fan spin, an led on the motherboard turns on (looks like a cpu or dram led, cant tell), then it shorts out or something and dies

edgy laurel
#

One of two things going on. You're confused with the details or that device is very broken and preventing the PSU from starting

craggy wigeon
#

what info could i confuse, its those cables connected to the controller trough a 3 pin header you see on motherboards for argb

steel stream
#

I don't believe you

edgy laurel

Should I put the power brick on the side or under the laptop?

You’re not American

fringe vigil

Usa has its own issues

young void
# craggy wigeon

Simple enough if plugged in appropriately and the 2nds just a hub for fans?

craggy wigeon

#

I’m kinda glad

young void

I’m having chinese

craggy wigeon

technically the rgb covers are two different models, one for GPU and one for the motherboard 24 pin

young void
#

Mmmmmm

topaz veldt
# fringe vigil I’m having chinese

we are having people over and i dont feel like cooking so we are having "California pizza kitchen" which is neither from california nor is it pizza

fringe vigil
#

Hmmmm

young void
#

No hmmm just mmmm linkthink

fringe vigil
#

so you have a pizza maker in kitchen or ordering it?

topaz veldt
#

its order

# craggy wigeon

For instance just having this plugged in to sata power doesn't really do nothin

craggy wigeon
#

having it not plugged in into sata (just powered from motherboard argb) seems to work, havent had any problems but asiahorse commented on a subreddit that it may lead to lights flickering due to not having enough power

steel stream
young void
#

Ill getcha a good controller that ever fan can plug into or rgb cable and will give control in signalrgb app or via a remote it comes with

young void
edgy laurel
young void
#

comes with remote for extra points $15 plug it into sata power, all case fans go into the hub. Then the motherboard slot to the motherboard header https://a.co/d/74xdzMp

For shits and giggles, I decided to boot the system up to see what was on here and yeah..... Pretty underwhelming as it had Windows 98SE installed and very basic stuff with MS Office 2000

Will linus ever do vape reviews?

...no

Yesn't

The system is actually pretty similar to my Socket 7 build I already have specs wise, though with W95 OSR2 and a Matrox Mystique 220 with Voodoo1.... oh well

warm acorn

#

meh not my cup of tea

wise bear
#

I think he was asking me

steel stream
#

@edgy laurel i figured my issue out, i was plugged into iGPU...

wise bear
#

Bro.

wise bear
#

Bwro.

steel stream
#

tbf I was having GPU issues yesterday

edgy laurel
steel stream
#

So when I went to gaming vBios I must have been on iGPU giving the illusion of it working

#

gaming vBios is still fucked, silent bios works, and I am plugged into the gpu

#

I'll ask for an RMA maybe on monday

#

see if that is a possibility

merry stirrup
#

so

young void
#

When you put it on silent bios switch what happens? I missed all the fun

steel stream
merry stirrup
#

remake my jellyfin container in a real vm

topaz veldt
young void
#

Well if you wanna ping me to bounce ideas I gotcha fams worst case

steel stream
steel stream
merry stirrup
#

i dont get hw transcode i dont think

#

truenas jellyfin install is weird

steel stream
#

i can boot but no display out on gaming vBios 5nail

topaz veldt
steel stream
merry stirrup
#

since p620 isnt officially supported i cant do anything with it unless i make a new VM

steel stream
#

ohhh

merry stirrup
#

and the poor 10700 does not like software transcoding everything

#

i could just pass thru the igpu but idk what path would be better

steel stream
#

solution buy a310 /s

merry stirrup
steel stream
#

yeah I would try doing a VM then

merry stirrup
#

mkay ill do that some what soon

steel stream
merry stirrup
#

rn i only get like 6 streams before my entire hgome server freezes

#

at least of some decent 120mbps stuff

steel stream
#

how many streams concurrently do you need?

merry stirrup
#

i would like 8-10

#

i think 8 is a decent target as i plan to share it with some homies

steel stream
#

damn

merry stirrup
#

it also has to double duty as an MC server so even if its not streaming it still has to be playable

steel stream
#

hella streams

merry stirrup
#

yeah

#

it very quickly runs outta mem

#

so a 128gb upgrade must come sono

steel stream
#

you NEED a 245K for this system

merry stirrup
#

i mean the 10700 itself is fine, just d4 doesnt have high enough capacity cheap enough for me to be able to go to 128GB

steel stream
#

yeah

#

I am just skirting by with 32GB on mine

#

12700k

merry stirrup
#

yeahi dont think youd be able to do anything besides media+server

young void
#

Just to verify have you tried a cmos clear AKN? (Would be an odd fixes but still) or a diffrent hdmi/display slot on the gpu?(also would be weird as it works on one setting but, should it be locked or funky making it regrab config myte be good)

merry stirrup
#

that 54GB is just with truenas running

#

idk where its pulling the other 14 from but its often wrong here

steel stream
merry stirrup
#

yeah thats fair

pure garnet
#

isn’t most of that zfs caching

merry stirrup
#

yes ish

steel stream
#

that too

merry stirrup
#

i just dont wanna run out doing other things

steel stream
pure garnet
#

most of your homies would direct play wouldn’t they

#

i think the only transcoding i did was browser access and my apple tv with av1 stuff

green marsh
merry stirrup
#

i have no idea why it says i have ecc mem

#

i do not have ECC mem

steel stream
merry stirrup
green marsh
#

(even more so at current prices)

merry stirrup
#

idk if this hp machine supports even 128gb

#

im going to buy it eventually but damn if it doesnt im gonna blow my head smoov off

#

@steel stream it is growing

#

okay so

#

should i do a VM thru truenas (and increase the hypervisor layering by one) or shoul i do it throuhg proxmox

steel stream
green marsh
#

also man i need to figure out how to mask some sensors out from beszel 😄

merry stirrup
#

now to use the P620 or the UHD 630 thonk

steel stream
#

fuckers got me beat

merry stirrup
#

LOL

#

i think you gotta add it as an actual network drive and not a location

steel stream
#

probs

merry stirrup
#

thats why i can see the free space on mine

steel stream
#

yeah mines just location

merry stirrup
#

i didnt need any videos or whatever to figure out what i was doing

steel stream
#

the only thing I really needed help for was some best practices file management/ permissions stuff and setting up qbittorrent with a built in VPN

merry stirrup
#

i should start doing my torrenting on my home server bro 💀

#

i just download on the main and move stuff over its stupid

steel stream
#

yeah the big thing for me was putting torrenting on the server

merry stirrup
#

oh theres LXC containers for jellyfin

steel stream
#

I started at first with jellyseerr and lidarr and sonarr but now I jkust do it all manually

merry stirrup
#

im not super into this so i dont even know what that is

steel stream
#

kind of just things where you would send a request for a move show music, and then it would automatically send a request to your tracker site, find the content, automatically download it and put it in the proper file for you

merry stirrup
#

ohhhh okay

#

but how does it know what rip to choose or does your tracker site eliminate choice

#

and just provides a good rip always

topaz veldt
steel stream
#

you can set it up to look for specifc terms, sort into categories and stuff

merry stirrup
#

hm okay

#

ill have to do that once i obtain decent sites and not a shitty search engine

steel stream
#

yeah i've still got no invites

merry stirrup
#

no worries i reckon ill have to find my own but this stuff always makes me paranoid lol

#

how i yearn for 2.5gbit on the server

green marsh
shell void
#

both are small low power cards

green marsh
shell void
#

9 dollars actually lol

#

$11.03 plus a -$2 coupon

green marsh
#

some of the 2.5gbe ones i own, as there is not much point in 5gbe when i got no 5gbe switches

shell void
#

yeah 5Gbe is kind of a stupid standard but it's $9 Shrug2

devout ridge
#

2.5g or 10g all the way

turbid locust
shell void
#

if there was a 2.5Gb card for less than $9 then sure but it makes no sense to pay 3x as much for a worse nic

green marsh
#

relevant background pictures 😄

shell void
#

the RTL8126 supports 2.5Gb

turbid locust
#

I still don’t have a proper use case to need more but I thought it would be faster lol

devout ridge
turbid locust
#

I’d have to upgrade my routers and AP too so

shell void
#

yeah gigabit symmetrical should just be a baseline for everyone nowadays, it's not fast by any means

devout ridge
#

it’s quite fast for the vast majority of people

shell void
#

the point is that it's sad that it's fast for many people

#

i have slow internet too

devout ridge
#

how often does the average user need to download at greater than 125MB/s

#

most cpus can’t even do better than that for uncompressing

merry stirrup
#

most downloads arent compressed

shell void
#

we are in the era of 200GB games and 100Mbps+ streaming, gigabit symmetrical should be standard, but ISPs are greedy and lazy

turbid locust
#

well tbh how fast would two 5400rpm drives in raid 0 even be able to go

devout ridge
green marsh
#

also now they got the 8x2.5+2x10 switches on the market

merry stirrup
#

still climbing

devout ridge
#

what cpu

merry stirrup
#

a 265K

shell void
#

i literally use a glorified cell hotspot and only get 20Mbps upload, im very much aware that gigabit is fast for most people

#

it shouldnt be though

merry stirrup
devout ridge
turbid locust
#

You can download full gigabit on Steam with like an i5-6500

merry stirrup
merry stirrup
#

i think the 1400 got like 80MB/s

shell void
#

we need nokia and other companies to hurry up with their launch of 100Gb PON so that it's more economical to get more people on fiber

merry stirrup
#

i go on fiber next month

#

should go to 3gbit and its cheaper

#

but heres where i am now

merry stirrup
steel stream
green marsh
#

i hate how it is obvious that it is not my networking infrastructure, but the ISPs modem which is the limiting factor for my internet speed. Their cable modem has a 2.5Gbe port, my router has 2.5Gbe ports. In 1000Mbps download setting, the internet caps out at around 920-930Mbps via speedtest. Now they switched it to 1200Mbps download setting for the holidays, with no change on my side it now manages to go up to 1040-1050Mbps 🤷‍♂️

merry stirrup
#

i could do like local steam caching and get 10gbit and flex but thats cringe

steel stream
#

uh I can give it an egg roll?

green marsh
#

but on other side, at least i only pay like 40 euros for TV + gigabit down internet (ignore the upload speed)

shell void
#

holy optimal

merry stirrup
merry stirrup
#

my upload is faster than ur ddownload

#

im on freakin copper

shell void
#

i could resign up for spectrum copper and get ~1150 down with ~45 up, but it's a lot less reliable than this cellular sadly

merry stirrup
#

yeah i wouldnt trust spectrum

#

bad even here so

shell void
#

it's bad pretty much everywhere except for the handful of cities that just got upgraded to high split

merry stirrup

#

ive never managed to get more than like 150 down on my phone where i live, but i could get like 450 down and 45 up on my home internet gateway if they didnt throttle it

pure garnet
#

idk speeds are so bad tiktok hasn’t loaded

#

it’s dropped like 5-6 times in this state

#

i download on my media server to avoid that XD

merry stirrup

well yeah im getting there

shell void
#

even with 10Gb im like nah im too lazy for that

pure garnet
#

is there even a cli torrent client

edgy laurel

torrent client should be running on the server either pulling through RSS or watch folders

pure garnet

i don’t have a gui on the thinkcenter

merry stirrup

Never hurts to have a cheap linux boot drive seperate for keks

topaz veldt
#

My problem with Linux and desktop/nvidia is I know what generally works the best, but I am tempted for alternatives.... and then everything is fucked up

#

yeah do a totally separate disk w/ its own bootloader

#

like cable swap

because nowadays uefi updates/windows/linux all fight each other

Kyoko you lurkin?

merry stirrup

use google though

at least for simple things like that, obviously most cards of your model are going to perform identical aside from ambient temp and such

acoustic shoal
# merry stirrup yes

Is there literally any way to like make sure it works in person, he has it back in the box now

topaz veldt
#

Grr all I need now is my NCase M3

acoustic shoal
#

But yes it’ll probably be his house

merry stirrup
#

that is his incentive to not scam you

#

scamming someone who lives in your local area who you just gave your home address to is not smart

#

ask him to take a photo/video of it working thats good enough

#

if you want to bring your own computer and test thats fine but that is indeed awkward

acoustic shoal
#

Yes that would be very awkward

turbid locust
merry stirrup
#

true

acoustic shoal
#

So should I just ask like can u even just plug it in to see if the lights turn on or smth

merry stirrup
#

sounds useless

#

gonna make bro dissassemble his entire system (swap gpu lol) for something he already has pictures of working

#

an RTX 3080 for common resale prices are probably not going to be high chances of scam cards

#

if its for 200$ yeah id be a little weary that youre getting scammed

#

if its 300-400$ like every other RTX 3080 rn its like 99% chance ok

acoustic shoal
#

He seems pretty legitimate aswell

merry stirrup
#

if its an RTX 5090 for 3080 pricing yeah be worried but i dont think this is one of those scenarios

acoustic shoal
#

He gave me his address

#

I reckon I should be good

#

He said he’s selling bc he swapped to the 5070ti for the features

#

And he has it in the box with the plastic on it and even the little things that go into the ports to protect them

#

And the invoice from where h bought it

Thank you to whoever recommended the galaxy tab! It has literally been one of the best devices I have ever used.
Perfect screen perfects blacks. Plenty of power, great speakers, and it was half the cost of an ipad pro. And one third of the cost of an ipad pro with a similar viewing size for content!

Oh, and because I have Galaxy earbuds, it also is able to shockingly seemingly transition from when my phone's playing something directly to the tablet without me having to do a single thing.🤘🤘🤘🤘

I was a bit concerned on whether or not it could decode high bit rate content, but it has not had a single issue, and even though i'm running it at a ridiculous brightness continuously, I got over seven hours out of it!

What about your m4

warped mountain
# fringe vigil Really lol

Yeah, i'm not saying that the ipad pro is a bad product.
I am saying though I don't think the aspect ratio makes sense for the kind of content that I consume.
I did use the second screen functionality.That's native to windows, and it was fantastic there.I've yet to do the mac attempt
Oh, and the screenwriting feel is absolutely amazing.The only thing I wish is that the pen was a little bit.Heavier, but because it no longer has a battery that makes sense.

Even if you don't plan on keeping it, it will let you test different % PWM so you can find out what noise you like - you can then put that in BIOS above

#

Are you on an air cooler?

quick spire
#

AIO

warped mountain
topaz veldt
#

If the fans are loud its possible you have the PWM port wrong and they'r eall running 100%

warped mountain
#

Did you plug any fans into your motherboard?

topaz veldt
#

Then the fans are running 100%

#

do you have a wire going from the fan hub to the mobo?

quick spire
quick spire
warped mountain
quick spire
topaz veldt
# quick spire I don’t think so

You need a PWM signal from the mobo to the fan hub, so that the Mobo sees the RPM the fans are running and can tell it to speed up or slow down

Montech king 95 pro

warped mountain
# quick spire No they all connect to the hub and the hub connects to PSU w SATA

Okay, so everything is currently running at maximum voltage, which is maximum speed. You need to give it signal from the motherboard if you want all of your fans, including your c p u cooler, to all run at the exact same speed.You'll want to use the c p u fan header..... but you probably don't want your case.Friends ripping at one hundred percent every single time your c p u sees a load

quick spire
#

how do I fix that?

young void
pure garnet
#

yeah i just hope sleep works

warped mountain
# quick spire how do I fix that?

Others can chime in, the way I personally build is my c p u.Fans are connected to the c p u header on the motherboard, i tend to run my water pumps in my AIOs at a hundred percent, but I don't necessarily recommend that....

Then I use the "system" (or chasis) fan header to control the case fans

quick spire
edgy laurel
#

I have 8 fans connected to a hub and then to CPU_FAN. One flat curve. No noise, no complexity.

warped mountain
#

For my fan curve, I tend to value performance over sound.So what I will typically do is watching how fast the cpu ramps.I will set my curve to 100% speed about 10-15c before down clock.

edgy laurel
#

if you need 100% fan speed to prevent throttling, you built it wrong
