you do realize that some of the largest internet outages were caused by DNS, right?

Why no one make buses aerodynamic

[wise bear]

Why god make me woman with extra steps

[low sorrel]

Huh

Oh right

[fringe shadow]

Why did god make me a tall, handsome white man

By the gods! Woe is me

[fringe vigil]

Amen to that bro

Stop capping jorj

[fringe vigil]

Jerry you’re a kid bud

[fringe vigil]

How tall are you

[glass scroll]

guys i just found out my ram had been running at 2600 mhz for 2,5 years

[fringe shadow]

6'2

[glass scroll]

hadn't enabled xmp

[fringe vigil]

6,6,1

[fringe shadow]

As god intended.

[fringe vigil]

[wise bear]

Lemme get my heels

[fringe shadow]

Is that extra 6 a train in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

[wise bear]

one helluva peg leg

[fringe vigil]

Do you get girls

[fringe shadow]

I'm married

[low sorrel]

Stop projecting

[wise bear]

Only jorj would ask it that way

[fringe vigil]

I am the milkman my milk is delicious

[wise bear]

jorj might be drunk

[low sorrel]

Idk jorj sounds like this all the time

anyone know if nvidia optimisation is good? in the nvidia app

[topaz veldt]

Oh Jay... draining glycol into the sink... ffs

[low sorrel]

Oh my god 32gb of ddr5 is the same price as a series S

[fringe shadow]

It's aight

[fringe shadow]

Hate watching?

[topaz veldt]

Well its illegal

[glass scroll]

how does it work? does it just make everything look like its running on a potato if i turn it all the way down to performance or will the games actually be playable?

[fringe shadow]

You've just posted twice about it so I assumed you didn't like him very much

[topaz veldt]

Its just wild the bad decisions he makes

[fringe shadow]

Looks at your hardware, makes adjustments that make game run better on that

[glass scroll]

alright thx

[fringe shadow]

Lol

I never enjoyed his videos, he seems ok

Only tech YouTubers I regularly watch are Gamers Nexus, Hardware Unboxed and JerryRigEverything

[topaz veldt]

GN is hard

[fringe shadow]

I enjoyed their China GPU market documentary.

Very good. I listen to the WAN show, usually turn it off after Linus cuts off Luke for the third or fourth time

[wise bear]

I miss when hardwarecanucks were doing case reviews all the time

dmitri is h o t t t

[frank zealot]

I like GN when Steve isn't actively on a vendetta against someone.

When he's doing a review, he's great. But when he decides that he needs to punish someone... he tends to go off the rails

[fringe shadow]

I think he cares a lot and usually when he calls someone out it's justified.

Wanting to keep the community and companies honest is fair enough.

[frank zealot]

50/50

Sometimes it is, sometimes it's completely overblown on his part

[fringe shadow]

Agree to disagree

Probably the wrong place to have the alternative opinion.

[frank zealot]

when the PSUs were exploding? or the fan controller was lighting itself on fire?

Absolutely take em to fuckin' town

[topaz veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/confused-no-nope-gif-5413974953753901704

[fringe shadow]

GN and LTT had a spat awhile back, I'd assume people here would favour LTT. Maybe I'm wrong.

[wise bear]

having an opinion isn't bad

[topaz veldt]

no one cares dude lol

[frank zealot]

but some of steve's vendettas have been bullshit.

Randomly ambushing companies and expecting sit down interviews in the middle of trade shows isn't what you should do.

[fringe vigil]

Guys

[fringe shadow]

Just assumed given it's a community for LTT, fanbases can be a bit rabid.

[fringe vigil]

Stranger things 5 is out

im gonna binge the f outta it

[wise bear]

So since you're new you should know that tc2 is like, the chiller, more grown-up section of the server

[frank zealot]

except when children invade it

[wise bear]

Except when children invade it.

[devout ridge]

figured out what the acetone smell was in my car, it was a bottle of rain-x that was leaking

[topaz veldt]

LOL jay rehearses nothing - its so funny, he's trying to figure out a reason there are these posts in the way of the return.... "its to like.... even out flow". Bro - its to prevent air bubbles from just being jammed back down to the pump inlet, helping bleeding.

[devout ridge]

laminar flow bad, turbulent flow good

[frank zealot]

Jay.... rehearse?

LOL

It's one reason I enjoy watching his nonsense

[topaz veldt]

To an extent, but he often just like invents facts as he goes

[frank zealot]

he 1000% invents facts

[topaz veldt]

but in this case its pretty obvious why you'd have obstructions from the return to the pump inlet

[frank zealot]

I've listened to him ramble about a topic and i'm sitting on my side of the screen getting angry because it's something he should know the correct answer to

like when he's talking about Gen4 SSDs being "kinda slow"

[devout ridge]

in what universe are gen4 ssds slow

[frank zealot]

like, bro... nothing you do on your PC is any faster on gen 5 than gen 4.

[fringe shadow]

I don't watch enough of his stuff to know if he claims to be an authority on the matter or not. I always assumed he was more of a custom builder and just made cool looking rigs

[frank zealot]

he's a dabbler in most everything

I wouldn't consider his channel to have any one focus. It's more "What does Jay's ADHD want to do this week?"

[fringe shadow]

Eh, that's fun in its own way.

[topaz veldt]

Making anti-sag for my SFF build 🙂

[frank zealot]

He is (generally) better at watercooling builds than many other tech-tubers would be.

[fringe shadow]

Very cool.

[topaz veldt]

lol bro forgot he has an Optimus block

[opal jasper]

I assume this means my monitor is dead

[edgy laurel]

we don't assume, we troubleshoot

try things, see what changes, narrow it down

[wise bear]

try a different cable

for starters

[edgy laurel]

hell just reseat the cable you have

gotta start somewhere

[wise bear]

Fair

[fringe shadow]

Also, plug your pc into something else

[opal jasper]

so whats known right now is

[fringe shadow]

Most likely, ya. Your monitor is dying.

[opal jasper]

• this started a few days ago, it used to go back to normal after a while
• reset doesnt work

[topaz veldt]

Lol Jay

[fringe shadow]

Do what everyone here said, if nothing changes punch the middle of the screen.

[topaz veldt]

IT LITERALLY SAYS IT

[lethal topaz]

who even reads these days

[edgy laurel]

not reset, but reseat. Aka unplug the display cable on both ends and plug it back in.

Try another cable.
Try another output on GPU.
Try another input on display.
Try another PC/device on display.
Try PC on another display.

Somewhere in there you'll have narrowed down where the problem is.

[opal jasper]

yeah i think it might be a dead monitor
since using the other 2 ports of the display with my laptop reproduces the same issue with a different known good cable

[lethal topaz]

kind of looks like a backlight issue anyway

backlight would cause those projected streaks right?

[fringe shadow]

Punch it

punch the screen

[opal jasper]

after i switched sources and back it came back to normal

so it wont get the punch for now

but i will probably get a new screen to replace it and try to figure out whats wrong with it afterwards

[edgy laurel]

https://tenor.com/view/rage-punch-rage-quit-angry-gif-26824995

[opal jasper]

also whats known is that this happens when turning on after standby/off

[fringe shadow]

https://tenor.com/view/dont-do-that-anymore-adam-engvid-stop-doing-that-dont-do-that-again-gif-12835326498451531896

[low sorrel]

Why is that one word people keep sensoring on tiktok blocked

[opal jasper]

only a 2 year old display btw

my benq that is right beside it that has been operating for 7 years is working great still

[topaz veldt]

its prolific anymore dude

Were we generally on a good run, or is this worse than usual?

[edgy laurel]

what

[fringe vigil]

Stranger things

[fringe shadow]

Kill?

[undone mulch]

Can someone help me find a good pc case?

[fringe vigil]

Lian li 011 dynamic

[undone mulch]

Move to my tech support channel

[edgy laurel]

someone said punch your monitor and Summit punching his monitor came to mind

[fringe shadow]

JPAC 412 Black. People will think you're suppppeeeer cool

[undone mulch]

Move to my tech support channel pls

[undone mulch]

I want something specific

[fringe shadow]

https://tenor.com/view/gohine-hohino-no-hohineee-gohineee-gif-17792172174678204487

[edgy laurel]

you used PCPP, set your filters and whent through everything already?

[topaz veldt]

The people here with random questions and no diagnosis

[edgy laurel]

OHH. Yeah I don't see that ever changing. You and I we have a problem and our mind goes to troubleshooting, googling. So many just freeze and don't know what to do so they ask discord. Sucks

[topaz veldt]

I feel like we were doing good for a while

[lethal topaz]

why try to solve problems when you can instantly gratify your brain and ask others

[edgy laurel]

It has been getting worse, yeah

[undone mulch]

I don’t got a clue what that is, please teach me some stuff about these things. I wanna learn as much as I possible because I wanna go into the pc building/marketing business in my life and I only known a little bit

[fringe shadow]

PC Part Picker

[undone mulch]

I struggle with learning cause I have a learning disability

[edgy laurel]

If there is any tool you should learn to use, its this https://pcpartpicker.com/

[fringe shadow]

Dude, ask chatGPT if you're unable to google lol

[undone mulch]

Ok I know that website

[lethal topaz]

if you want to get into it try using the tools instead of just asking everyone to do everything for you. we would be more than happy to provide you with the resources weve collected

[opal jasper]

admittitly i did troubleshooting but i didnt post any results here :/

[undone mulch]

No but like I was just asking for advice, I wasn’t asking for anybody to do anything

[lethal topaz]

if i were you i would look at cases on PC part picker, filter by price, and see if you find anything interesting. if you cant find something in your price range check the second hand market like facebook marketplace, offerup, ebay, etc.

[undone mulch]

I never said “find me a pc case”

I said “can someone please teach me some stuff about this thing?”

[undone mulch]

Ok thanks

Would Amazon be a good choice or no?

[lethal topaz]

for buying cases yeah they arent bad

[undone mulch]

Ok

[lethal topaz]

but you should probably find the case before you search amazon

[undone mulch]

Also, what can I get in a pc case? Like I know there’s some with screens, or some with like an image instead of just black or white, I know a lot come with a display screen to see the inside

[lethal topaz]

maybe check out the nzxt H9 flow its quite a nice case to build in, although its a little pricey ($140 US)

[wise bear]

Just get a standard pc case

[undone mulch]

Ok

[wise bear]

A lot don't come with an internal screen, it's usually an aftermarket accessory or on $300+ aio coolers

[lethal topaz]

you can add stuff like that later too

just get a pc case that will support the upgrades you want in the future

[wise bear]

and has good airflow

[edgy laurel]

HAVN BF360 or HS420

speaking of @wise bear you need the Doom version of the HS420 to match your bike

[wise bear]

Oh does it look like an army can or something

MEHHHHH

[edgy laurel]

its actually really detailed https://havn.global/products/hs-420-doom-edition

[lethal topaz]

themed builds are sick but i dont think i could pull one off

[wise bear]

I doooooo wanna get some cleaned-up metal ammo cans to attach to the bike like pannier boxes

[edgy laurel]

hell it includes a skull with a optional reservoir

[wise bear]

OOH what if I get one of those old wood ammo crates and make a shell around the cargo basket I've got on the back already

that'd look cool as fuck

[edgy laurel]

panniers i think you're talking about, but using repurposed ammo crates

[fringe shadow]

This still looks tacky to me

[wise bear]

yeah I already said panniers

[fringe shadow]

To be fair my gaming PC is just in a black cube

[wise bear]

lianli a3 ftw

[edgy laurel]

oh

[fringe shadow]

I don't care how my stuff looks as long as it works

[wise bear]

YES exactly like taht

[fringe shadow]

Kinda crappy saddle bags

[lethal topaz]

them ww2 saddle bags

[fringe shadow]

Super awkward shape and they're not flexible at all, look cool I guess.

Unless you're carrying around ammo

[edgy laurel]

hardcase panniers are pretty common on touring roadbikes

[topaz veldt]

wtf did I just do

[wise bear]

Keep in mind it's a kinda halo-themed bike that I accidentally started

[fringe shadow]

Imo it would look super dorky on an e-bike

but you do you

[wise bear]

so, ammo cans under the cargo basket would work perfectly

Dude I am literally nothing but dorky

[fringe shadow]

Haha, awesome.

[edgy laurel]

something sploded

[fringe shadow]

When you search those you're meant to get off

The fire supression system or whatever kicks in and then you loot

[topaz veldt]

I stayed on like a man

[undone mulch]

Is this good? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D5D66V6K?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1

[edgy laurel]

Good is relative.

Its an enclosure, but its going to be very cheaply made.

[low sorrel]

Man now I wanna buy ammo boxes for storage

[undone mulch]

But would it do me good?

[edgy laurel]

thats up to you. if it fits your parts then sure

[undone mulch]

ok

[opal jasper]

its a case, the "do me good" depends on your needs

if you want aesthetics and stuff then its up to you

[edgy laurel]

look into how many fans it has and if you might need to add some more

[undone mulch]

3'

[opal jasper]

from a functional perspective if it fits your stuff it works

[undone mulch]

3 built in

3 built in fans argb

comes with a temp screen

[opal jasper]

also whats your budget

[rigid barn]

any tips on figuring out what the issue is with some display stuff? warzone is like bugging out and smearing like crazy and then the monitor is disconnecting often, but im not seeing this at low load, but i am seeing the flickering continue when i connect the gpu to just my second monitor

im rlly hoping the gpu isnt dead

[undone mulch]

I wanna get a desk, new chair, new case and fans, and this case already comes with fans, as well as possibly an xbox and maybe one of those 100 dollar tv's from best buy

Uhhhh.... my budget is 500

i mean play station

[opal jasper]

your budget is 500 and you want to buy a case for 90?

i certainly have bad news for you

[undone mulch]

?

[opal jasper]

get the cheapest case you can get that fits your components

if you can do second hand try marketplace

[fringe shadow]

Post a picture/video or send a picture to chatgpt or google

[undone mulch]

this one is 60

[rigid barn]

i have, still cant determine what is is

[opal jasper]

oh it automatically put it in canadaland

[rigid barn]

one second its gpu, next its monitor

[fringe shadow]

....send the picture here?

[opal jasper]

also start with cpu/ram/gpu first

[opal jasper]

and put case at last imo

[fringe shadow]

Easiest way to determine if it's the pc or the monitor is to plug the PC into another display

[fringe shadow]

That's your GPU

[rigid barn]

fuck

[undone mulch]

i wanna imrpove the looks first, if i show you my pc, the case is all worn and broken down

its a case from 2011

[rigid barn]

is it like dead

[opal jasper]

your budget is 500

[fringe shadow]

You can test taking out RAM and other things but that's a GPU issue

[rigid barn]

or can it be troubleshooted at all

[fringe shadow]

Use DDU, uninstall all drivers, reinstall drivers

See if that fixes it.

[rigid barn]

ddu?

[undone mulch]

but i dont want to spend all my money on pc parts? i literally just said i wanna get some other things rather than pc parts

[opal jasper]

oh you just want a case

[fringe shadow]

I have done 90 percent of the work for you, look up "ddu drivers"

[undone mulch]

yes

[opal jasper]

then yeah that should work

if it fits all your parts

[rigid barn]

all drivers as in like chipset and everything ot just gpu?

[rigid barn]

ok

[fringe shadow]

...The GPU

[undone mulch]

ok finally thank you

[rigid barn]

...ok

[fringe shadow]

You guys suck ngl lmao

[rigid barn]

thanks bro

[wraith steeple]

What is Jay waffling on about now?

[topaz veldt]

its just wild

[fringe vigil]

nothing

[topaz veldt]

LOL I just pissed a dude off big time

[random flame]

Over what?

[topaz veldt]

In arc raiders

editing the clip now

[random flame]

Ah.

[fringe vigil]

show me

[topaz veldt]

I'll have to edit, its too long

[low sorrel]

Did he call you gamer words

[vestal elbow]

i would probably say, motorola will be the better choice

[topaz veldt]

nah

[edgy laurel]

i like lossless cut for these situations. can just quickly cut clips without having to reencode

[topaz veldt]

how do

[edgy laurel]

avidmux can do it too

[low sorrel]

Last night I got jumped by a guy on a free loadout after we were teamed up the entire round and he called me gamer words after losing the gun fight

[edgy laurel]

https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut

drag file in, set start and end points, save it

and you're done

nothing has to be encoded so its immediate

i really only use it for times like this for cutting down a clip for discord

[topaz veldt]

was about to install premiere lol

[edgy laurel]

yeah not worth it

[topaz veldt]

or switch PCs

[edgy laurel]

i used to use avidmux for this all the time but it doesn't play nice with av1

[fringe vigil]

i got you

[rigid barn]

well its not dying anymore

maybe the fdrivers jsut got corrupted or something

[low sorrel]

So uhh small problem

[fringe shadow]

You used DDU?

[low sorrel]

I'm currently 3 hours from home and I don't know exactly how to get back by walking

[rigid barn]

yea

[low sorrel]

And I'm at 18% battery

[fringe shadow]

Sounds like it was a bad driver then, congrats.

[rigid barn]

thank goodness

[edgy laurel]

if you're typing here, you have internet. you can figure this out.

[rigid barn]

i hope it stays fine, i did not fancy replacing a 4090 lol

[edgy laurel]

then stop typing here and look at a damn map

[fringe shadow]

Bad driver installs are pretty common. You just learned a really useful tool for troubleshooting.

[edgy laurel]

if you have a battery saving/low power mode, turn it on

[fringe shadow]

Reddit would have also told you

[rigid barn]

yea ty man, you saved the day

[young void]

Also if passing any hotels/motels they can print you a small google maps paper with directions

[fringe shadow]

Do you live in a super remote location?

[young void]

Or order you a taxi* or could maybe Uber if funds allow

[fringe shadow]

I'd uber to a bus stop or some other form of public transportation or a shared bike.

Or home, if you have the money.

[edgy laurel]

i remember printing out multi-page mapquest directions back in high school

[low sorrel]

No I've been walking since 8am this morning

[fringe shadow]

...why?

[low sorrel]

I don't know why not

[fringe shadow]

Based.

[young void]

Itll getcha where you need to go lol

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel have to encode anyway, its 1.6GB

[edgy laurel]

jeeze dude how long do you need the clip to be lol

[topaz veldt]

its funny, its got kind of a context

[edgy laurel]

ok ok

[topaz veldt]

i didn't cut it down too much there was just a shit ton of time i just laid on the ground

[edgy laurel]

look at you looting without healing back up

ok ok i'll keep watching lol

[topaz veldt]

yeah... lol

[edgy laurel]

oh no, a rocketeer

[topaz veldt]

lol twerpy voice

his voice is why i did this

[young void]

Felt good lmao

[topaz veldt]

rofl

[young void]

Snails a menace xD

[edgy laurel]

DUDE

and you both go down!

[young void]

Im dead bro

[topaz veldt]

haha yes

If we go down then we go down together

[edgy laurel]

guy is never going to trust anyone again

[topaz veldt]

he deserved it

[edgy laurel]

even came back to res you!

[fringe shadow]

...He's not wrong

[topaz veldt]

fuckin camping in a room like a little bitch with a trap

[edgy laurel]

oh wait he was in that room?

[fringe shadow]

He revived you

[topaz veldt]

He didn't know how bad that decision was

[edgy laurel]

i didn't realize

[topaz veldt]

yah dude

he was camping in the corner but talks about "I got you with a trap dude kek kek"

nah dude you were fucking camping with a shotgun

[fringe shadow]

Evidentially not, he'll never do that again. So you've created a player who'll room camp and won't revive someone.

[topaz veldt]

5nails gonna get the last word mf

[edgy laurel]

lol

[fringe shadow]

It was kinda cringe ngl

[topaz veldt]

Can't match my high IQ "yo check this guy out over here"

[edgy laurel]

if only you healed tf up so you didn't both go down lmao

[topaz veldt]

I didn't want to tip him off

but you raise a valid point

I will cross my next victim with more health

[edgy laurel]

i thought the reloading right in front of him earlier was going to have him down you agan

[topaz veldt]

Yeah I dunno why he didn't react to that

[vestal granite]

i thought itd be really funny comedic timing if you take like 15s to reload and then you immediately shoot him in the face

[topaz veldt]

His voice got him killed, if he just didn't talk we'd be fine

[edgy laurel]

poor guy

[vestal granite]

thats messed up

I am whats wrong with this game guys

https://tenor.com/view/bamboozled-backstabbed-tricked-red-vs-blue-halo-gif-24766168

the guy in the room if he DIDN'T res you are who reddit thinks is wrong with the game

after all that, i'm not sure anymore lol

[topaz veldt]

rofl

"Buddy you fell for my trap kek kek"

bro your trap was a grenade with you camping in the corner lol

[vestal granite]

this network driver shit is gonna make me crash out like john mcafee

[edgy laurel]

all i know is, the ability to res other people not on your team adds a very interesting dynamic to this game

[steel stream]

he's a mastermind!!!

[young void]

Is it showing pepe? In networks*

[fringe shadow]

There's nothing wrong with PvP or tricking someone but this was just such a weird situaction. And nobody gained anything on either side

[topaz veldt]

yah its cool - the whole lack of formal teams is interesting

[topaz veldt]

rofl did you watch

[edgy laurel]

there is, just not in solos of course

[vestal granite]

is what showing

[fringe shadow]

https://tenor.com/view/cringe-gif-13669406505701813608

[topaz veldt]

right

[young void]

Your network lol the wifi/ethernet or whats happening?

[edgy laurel]

if you do teamup in raid, there is a neat feature at the end of the round to formally team up with whoever you were running with

[vestal granite]

network driver randomly crashes and i have to restart it in device manager, gateway unpingable on ethernet

[shell void]

and so it begins

[steel stream]

"buddy you fell for my trap man and I revived you"

[shell void]

2026 tvs getting certifications are flooding the net

LG is going with C6/G6 instead of C26 and G26, and Samsung is doing S90H/S95H

[edgy laurel]

C6 just as @fringe vigil bought his C5

[shell void]

XDDDDDD

imagine it's 165Hz and gets the new woled panel

[fringe vigil]

im getting c6 aswell

[edgy laurel]

riiiight

[topaz veldt]

[steel stream]

what is up with samsung and just skipping some letters

[shell void]

i have no idea

[low sorrel]

I don't think I know anyone my age that knows how to read a map

[young void]

You tried a diffrent port/ethernet cable?

[edgy laurel]

I feel like enough time has passed its fine

[low sorrel]

Only reason I know how is because of arma

[edgy laurel]

thats unfortunate. i love maps

[steel stream]

I might have to upgrade

[shell void]

miniature g5

[vestal granite]

different ports, i have bought 2 new pcie network cards off of amazon now, and a lot of different ethernet cables

[steel stream]

@topaz veldt I need to play more Arc Raiders, but went home this weekend

[shell void]

it would be a little funny if they just discontinued 42" entirely instead of making a new model, but i dont think thatll happen

if anything 48" would be discontinued because it's the least popular size

[young void]

Linux or windows?

[edgy laurel]

https://tenor.com/view/ricky-bobby-gif-3479536

[steel stream]

Apparently a 48" G5 exists outside the US? or I got hella trolled by this guy on reddit

[vestal granite]

it happens on many machines on my network, only ones running Windows. linux i have never encountered it

[low sorrel]

What's your stash size in arc raiders

[shell void]

it does, but it's a fraud g5

[steel stream]

figured

[shell void]

it's just a dressed up C5, no new panel

[steel stream]

208

[steel stream]

oh damn that poor fucker

[shell void]

[low sorrel]

I'm at the one that's a 40k upgrade

[young void]

Happening to multiple machines on your network, id blame maybe your router or isp blocking mayhaps or hitting its limit maybe

Imma guess 162?

[vestal granite]

when it happens event viewer shows this

[low sorrel]

I think 184

[steel stream]

i can translate the hex to binary if you want

[young void]

Is curious hrmm

[vestal granite]

0x2A is the network device

[vestal granite]

it literally crashes the network driver on an individual machine though

so i feel like this is something that can be fixed in software on my PC's end

[topaz veldt]

See? Now 5 machines makes sense

The research lab on the laboratory map gives you so much shit

If i think of anything crafty ill give a ping

[low sorrel]

friend playing madden 26, settings on low, r 7 5700g and rtx 3070 and 16gb of ram. His cpu spikes whenenver he inputs and game is running in slow motion, why?

[edgy laurel]

couldn't say, would need to sit at the PC and tinker. See whats running in the background, check stats in HWiNFO, test other games, etc.

have him head to #1027757333117415424

@topaz veldt the definition of sketch

[vestal granite]

[vestal granite]

oh for weight balance maybe cause the truck in t

ok understandable

[low sorrel]

pretty sure it is

[vestal granite]

only through the site, not steam atleast

[low sorrel]

has anyone played peak

[low sorrel]

they should allow everyone to play easily

[vestal granite]

[low sorrel]

wait how much is that in real dollars

[devout ridge]

this server is the one reason i can do rough currency conversions in my head

euro? little more than usd, cad? little less than usd, yen? like 80 yen to a dollar

[vestal granite]

40,000 RMB go

[devout ridge]

no fucking idea

[vestal granite]

checkmate

[pure garnet]

nah it’s 8 billion cad to one usd

and the entire gdp of australia to one usd

[vestal granite]

theyre still saving up for one

[fringe vigil]

tis the season to be jolly, if u want my steam id to gift me arc dm me

[vestal granite]

no its thanksgiving

[edgy laurel]

jorj stop begging for steam keys

[south shuttle]

i thought it was two trillion cad to one usd

[fringe vigil]

he said hell gift me

[vestal granite]

tis the season to be thankful for what you have and then next season is the season to ask for arc raiders on tech-chat-2

[reef grove]

Heya

[brave panther]

i can do rough mile to km and opposite but F to C is still fucked up

[low sorrel]

around 8k cad

[vestal granite]

C to F is 32 + (1.8 * C) i think and then F to C is some other thing i dont care about

[low sorrel]

RMB to cad is about 2x then divide by 10

[brave panther]

i know few points and i correlate the rest

[vestal granite]

i know 40C is really hot desert and 100C is boiling and 0C is water freezing and then i try to guess the other ones

i think 20C is chilly

[pure garnet]

X*(9/5)+32

[low sorrel]

IM HIM

[pure garnet]

it’s really easily to do in your head

[brave panther]

20c is perfect

[reef grove]

I once heard that C to F can be used like %. Like 40% Is pretty cold, 20% is even colder, 100 is pretty warm and over 100 is extremely warm. 🤷‍♂️

[vestal granite]

100 is boiling i think thats pretty warm

[reef grove]

100F i mean

[low sorrel]

20 is room temp

[vestal granite]

oh, yeah with fahrenheit thats how we do it

[brave panther]

25 is

[pure garnet]

europeans explaining how the point of water boiling is a useful measurement of outdoor temperature

[low sorrel]

HELL NO

[reef grove]

I dont know Fahrenheit, im european 😅 its guessing work for me

[reef grove]

😂

[low sorrel]

you heating up the whole neighborhood in winter?

[vestal granite]

yeah for fahrenheit that's a perfect way to do it, 100F is like heatwave temps

[brave panther]

for me perfect room temp is 23 at summer, 20 at winter

[low sorrel]

pepe what temp do you keep your house

[vestal granite]

anything above 100F is very rare in outside temperatures unless you live in a desert

[pure garnet]

i keep my room 68f typically

[vestal granite]

depends on the room my house's cooling fucking sucks

[low sorrel]

yeah 20c

[vestal granite]

in florida i like 76F AC setting, in tennessee i like 72F AC setting

[low sorrel]

kelvin is thethe way

[vestal granite]

in new york i like 70F AC setting

[wraith steeple]

[low sorrel]

so 22-25c

[vestal granite]

yeah

[brave panther]

i just visualise this graph

[vestal granite]

i hate that graph

[brave panther]

love it

[vestal granite]

there should be a kelvin reference

[brave panther]

c to kelvin is easy

[low sorrel]

i just minus 32 and divide by 2 and add a bit

[reef grove]

I just use Celsius and hope the other person knows the difference

[low sorrel]

i just imagine everyone using kelvin

[vestal granite]

i dont use temperatures i just say words

[wraith steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/thriller-michael-jackson-eating-popcorn-watching-gif-5577709

[vestal granite]

its warm outside

[low sorrel]

oh whats the weather today?

295.15 degress outside

[reef grove]

Seems warm

[low sorrel]

22C

[devout ridge]

kelvin only makes sense for math

[reef grove]

Still warmer then it actually is

[devout ridge]

that’s why usually you take measurements in C, covert to K for the math, then convert back to C

[low sorrel]

John froze from hypothemia in chilly positive 280 degree water

[reef grove]

Are you sure John didnt combust?

[low sorrel]

hey my cousin kelvin can do other things then math

he is good at math tho

[wraith steeple]

Maths is the only thing I have going for me

[low sorrel]

whats 2+2

[wraith steeple]

4

[digital laurel]

if it isnt for the ltt

[brave panther]

pi = e = 3

[low sorrel]

now give me the answer to the collatz conjecture

[wraith steeple]

I have the unit circle burnt into my head for well over a decade

[low sorrel]

I forgot the unit circle already

all i remember is that 45 is sqrt2/2

[wraith steeple]

Coordinate for 0/2pi, (pi/2), pi, (3pi/2), (pi/4), (3pi/4), (5pi/4), and (7pi/4) are easy to know

[low sorrel]

I always just memorized the unit circle right before tests and wrote it on the paper

[brave panther]

for me it is burned in
not due to math but due to electrical engineering

fucking 3 phase power systems with unequal loads

[fringe vigil]

martin u wanna do gift for gift i have a game 4 u

[wraith steeple]

Same with Computer Engineering for me. As long as you have this memorised, strong grasp on maths, and a decent grasp on physics and chemistry, you'll be fine

[karmic folio]

are you a electrical engineer?

[teal orbit]

do it against kelvin now so the graph isn't like tilted by the arbitrary zero values both F and C choose

[brave panther]

no lmao but for some reasons we had 4 years of EE classes

[teal orbit]

Math is good

[karmic folio]

oh lol

[karmic folio]

in high school or

[brave panther]

yes

[fringe vigil]

Slowly but surely un neutering my 9900x realized I had it on enhanced 80c gonna let it go full ride and see where we can land

Stay tuned

(Was summer when i set the limits and was using it in 100+ weather)

[edgy laurel]

[young void]

Oh its chugging now but myte be able to squeeze a bit more after this next run

We shall see 2 more updates to come lol

(Turned pcb on, and re enabled oc in advanced set it to auto then went back and enabled enhanced 90)

Shouldn't be nearly as neutered just a few more minutes

[edgy laurel]

mind you, this was in a very cold room. like, window open all night room

but as far as setup, just -40 all core with PBO

[young void]

I was trying that for awhile but have a method wanna see if asus secret juice is as good as msi

Running all core -30 was the setup at first*

two core architectures newer than arrow lake with avx512, avx10.2, apx10, and big cache

i think we're gonna end up in a "yeah nova lake is better but i already have an am5 board" scenario for a lot of people

which is totally valid

i dont expect people to drop everything and switch because they had one good lineup

this 5060Ti was $200 the last time that they put it up for a black friday deal

yeh it's a lot of gpu for $200

[topaz veldt]

yeah agree

can it plex tho

[edgy laurel]

jfc i was just about to say

yes 5nail that can do plex too

yeh thatd be a great htpc gpu

if it's $200 again then ill probably grab one

but how good

[edgy laurel]

stick a damn 1650 Super in there and it'll do the job

[shell void]

are we sure that anything less than a 5090 can do it?

[topaz veldt]

i dunno man, i think the 5090 is prob doing it better

[shell void]

wowie a $25 discount

remember when 7800x3d dropped to $330, and 2x16 was $85? good times

[topaz veldt]

remember when i got my 7800x3d for like $249

[low sorrel]

don't include 30 series and 50 series in one chart

[edgy laurel]

yeah, we don't use those anymore

for that reason

notice how you never see anyone post them anymore?

for a while it felt like it was 10x a day in here

[low sorrel]

yeah why don't they have the 30 series and 50 series in one chart

why did they stop doing that

[shell void]

i never liked that chart

it's annoying to look at compared to just pulling up TPU quickly

[edgy laurel]

when the revamped them, they said 30 series and 6000 series needed to be re-tested but they've just never done it

since it was a totally new test platform

the old one was 12900k based, moved to 9800x3d

[low sorrel]

you know what would've been funny

if they kept retesting the gpus for the rest of time

so it would just keep getting longer and longer

wait 8gb on 4k is going to be cancer no?

[edgy laurel]

yes

DLSS can help but its not a silver bullet for that

[grizzled lily]

[vestal granite]

i am now going down the list of every one of these (within reason) and disabling them one at a time to see if they are causing my network driver crashes 🙂

[grizzled lily]

[young void]

Yean thats pretty much it till next week lol unless a miraculous pair of sticks appear

[low sorrel]

you don't want a bluetooth headset for gaming

[grizzled lily]

[edgy laurel]

[topaz veldt]

[fringe vigil]

new wallpaper goes hard

[edgy laurel]

goes harder

jorj hiding the messy desktop icons

[low sorrel]

Man why can't this be like 2021 and 2022 where like every option was valid for GPUs and Ram and CPUs

[vestal granite]

i dunno what most of this stuff im disabling does so this is a bit of fuck around and find out but also some of them seem promising like i google them before i mess with them and this TCP checksum offload stuff sounds like it could be a potential culprit

and for every single one of these settings i think that and then it doesnt turn out to be the culprit which is annoying

[hoary hatch]

To iCUE LINK or to not iCUE LINK

[merry stirrup]

icue link

[merry stirrup]

can i see your setup

[low sorrel]

Anything below a 9070xt is just like get fucked

[grizzled lily]

nada signal rgb

[merry stirrup]

ill give you a photo of a quadro p620 as return

[edgy laurel]

what do you mean exactly

[merry stirrup]

picture of your desk

as long as its not dirty and full of gamer gunk

[vestal granite]

ive figured out a very foolproof way of stress testing it though, ive loaded into a minecraft server and I get the elytra wing things and glide in a direction starting at Y 40,000 so i dont bump into anything until it disconnects

[edgy laurel]

oh, well give me a minute

[fringe vigil]

what even is that

[merry stirrup]

yeah okay

[low sorrel]

Bully him about tissues

[merry stirrup]

so my dad needs a laptop and i have a bunch of rando laptops

[fringe vigil]

also are you using the transparent thing

[merry stirrup]

do you guys think hed be more ok with a laptop that isnt a laptop and has to be plugged in

[hoary hatch]

So I'm thinking link titan 360mm, price isn't unreasonable

Then I have to pick between expensive Link fans, or trying cheaper fans with this official argb to LINK adapter

[fringe vigil]

whats it called

i wanna remove the bar below

[edgy laurel]

windhawk

[merry stirrup]

over something slowerr based on d3

[fringe vigil]

on what store microsoft?

[vestal granite]

cause it only happens with certain kinds of traffic, i think its just TCP related cause i never disconnect from CS matches

[edgy laurel]

don't remember

[grizzled lily]

is this a deal of the century? https://www.bestbuy.com/product/aoc-27-qd-oled-qhd-240hz-g-sync-compatible-03ms-gaming-monitor-black/JX9GSKP9H6/sku/6641760?sb_share_source=PDP&ref=app_pdp&loc=screenshot_modal

[merry stirrup]

transparent tb on ms store

[pure garnet]

1440p oled

[merry stirrup]

my bad its this one

[pure garnet]

[vestal granite]

$400 for a 1440p 240hz oled seems high

[merry stirrup]

yes

[low sorrel]

370 is aight

[merry stirrup]

i paid i think 500 for my 360hz but that was almost 6 months ago now i htink

[low sorrel]

Cheapest so far

But Costco had the 380 MSI one for like 2 weeks

Is there usually any deals held in reserve for black Friday day

[shell void]

naw that's about as low as it gets for new

$370-430

[fringe vigil]

okay so why not working

[vestal granite]

at risk of speakign too soon, i think the problem was TCP checksum offload
