[green marsh]

some people like to go a bit over the top

[fringe vigil]

yh so will prob buy the northen lights pad or the corsair one

maybe razer too idk

[topaz veldt]

this is the sff fad I don't get - small case, but it requires a gigantic external radiator

[green marsh]

which cost more than half of the rig 😄 https://shop.aquacomputer.de/Water-Cooling/Radiators-Accessories/airplex-GIGANT/airplex-GIGANT-3360-with-aquaero-6-PRO-copper-fins::3373.html

[fringe vigil]

snail does the northen lights lttpad have good glide and good for fps games

[green marsh]

or a 'smaller one' https://shop.aquacomputer.de/Water-Cooling/Radiators-Accessories/airplex-GIGANT/airplex-GIGANT-1680-copper-fins::2964.html

[livid flame]

I guess it means you can space stuff out better for height. But then his radiator is taller than my car so yknow

Needs to go sideways really

[topaz veldt]

dunno but people like it

[topaz veldt]

i mean regardless - I see people with Terras hooked up to Mora rads...I don't really understand it

[livid flame]

Honestly I don’t mind it if they build on the top of or the side of the case

But externally is dumb

Well stand alone

[topaz veldt]

its like driving a miata but needing a trailer

[livid flame]

Are there any nice SFF designed kits for external rads and tanks to attach onto cases?

I feel the market for that would be better and tbh more practical

[topaz veldt]

probably

I only follow SFF stuff a little bit

everytime i do a cpu eps unplug i wish i had an eatx case

[topaz veldt]

you plug in eps?

[turbid locust]

After owning an H510 I’m basically invincible to this

[fringe vigil]

[turbid locust]

but fr just pre run your cables and plug in EPS as you’re putting the board in lol

[strange ginkgo]

you save the electricity cost for fans so it will pay for itself after some time

[brisk jolt]

good to know I figured the root cause of my system being unstable on valorant

[pure garnet]

that doesn’t help when i do dumb board swaps

the y40 has a cutout for them at least which is fire

[turbid locust]

Sure it does

[pure garnet]

so i can reach in from the top/side

and align it

[brisk jolt]

Im still using the H6 flow with an aio that has a dummy thick radiator

Im gonna swap to the Havn HS420 in like…18 more days

[turbid locust]

@pure garnet did you see what I DM’d you and Mike last night lmao

[pure garnet]

yeah

[turbid locust]

hardest lock in in Val history

16 kills in the last 5 rounds

team insisted on throwing any advantage we had the entire game so I had to lock tf in

[brisk jolt]

I was playing chamber and half my kills were from the OP

that said I had to keep retaking on corrode A all the way from B… And when I swapped to A they went B lmao

How is Kansas this morning Mac

[turbid locust]

Don’t you have to get the horse and buggy ready to head to family thanksgiving

[topaz veldt]

Let me take a look outside

... Nope.

[fringe vigil]

can someone post the food theyre eating today

[young void]

Got eggs boiling, potatoes peeled, and getting the turkey situated gotta soak it in garlic and herbs and give it some sauce injections

[solid pelican]

is the sn7100 wd black the same as the sn770? which is not being made anymore i believe

[young void]

7100 has newer parts and myte be alittle faster in some scenarios

[turbid locust]

“Pulled it off Google images” ahh pic quality

like that’s literally thumbnail quality

[solid pelican]

would you recommend it for a secondary ssd

[young void]

Ofc most wd sn models are pretty solid

If at a deal*

[hoary hatch]

9100 pro for all ssd

[turbid locust]

Literally “got into a sex offender’s phone and only could get the metadata” ahh quality

[topaz veldt]

lol i live near Philly not near Amish

So I guess Kansas is extra happy this Thanks Giving

[young void]

Actually 2tb for 190 of pcie 5.0 isnt awful if usable to spec

[topaz veldt]

Do yourself a favor - buy once cry once - 4TB SN8100

[topaz veldt]

9100 is not good

[young void]

It run hot? Haven't tested yet did have the 990 pro but wasn't so bad

[topaz veldt]

9100 is ass

Only NVMe I've returned ever

[young void]

What'd it do lol?

[topaz veldt]

It ran hot as an MF

I generally like Samsung I dunno wtf they did there

[young void]

Makes sense, ill have to creep some vids

[young void]

First thing I see tpu mentioning 106c in the surface damnnn

[topaz veldt]

Its only PCIe 5.0 x4 for like 90 secs

[young void]

80c+ is crazy work

[green marsh]

to be honest, for consumer drive, that is more than enough

[topaz veldt]

Nah

not for that kinda money

[young void]

Im typically fine but curious how theyll hold up over long term use of possible heat warp

[green marsh]

that is over 1TB written if i calculate correctly ?

[young void]

But will have to keep an eye on it

[topaz veldt]

physically its fine it just throttles bad

[topaz veldt]

which is nothing if doing AI or copying large raw footage, etc.

You can just get the SN8100 which is.... good

[hoary hatch]

Okay P51 platinum for the Christmas stockings then

[topaz veldt]

still bummed about P41 issues

P51 not good either

holy mackerel

[young void]

Crazy temps ill have to abuse my t700 and t705 just to be sure

Although I do have fatty heatsinks on both

[topaz veldt]

that transfer drop on the P51 is kind of hilarious

[brisk jolt]

They installed a turbocharger but forgot to tell the ECU

[topaz veldt]

4" stroke moment

[brisk jolt]

Every GT86/FRS/BRZ owner tells themselves that its not about the speed but the handling

-As they get gapped by a lawnmower

[topaz veldt]

its true, I have a friend with a BRZ

he was like "Its the E30 M3 of modern day"

So its an E30 M3.... with a boxer engine that revs to 6000 RPM. So its slow and deosn't even have 8000 RPM to distract you. Got it.

[brisk jolt]

those things have like 200 horsepower and lack torque

I cant use it against you even if you tell me- We're in complete separate countries

[topaz veldt]

In my '91 M3 I was having issues with the stock sensors and shit, so I swapped it

So I pulled out the BMW S14 engine and put in a US E36 M3 engine (with a turbski)

It made for very awkward cars and coffee convos

Neat looking lil ride

no sorry thats an S50B30 EUro

[shell void]

@steel stream we are at a crossroads

the most reliable Nvidia leaker, and the most reliable Intel leaker are saying different things about Nova Lake

time will tell who is correct

[fringe vigil]

my oled arrived

[steel stream]

oh god oh man

[steel stream]

let us see

[fringe vigil]

im opening xmas

[hoary hatch]

I might cancel all the components I bought

[south shuttle]

i’d just not pay attention to the rumours

we don’t know how they’ll end up priced at retail

[hoary hatch]

I don't need it
I should just go back to the 4000D and suffer another year or two

[south shuttle]

if something is going to be really good then the demand is prob going to be higher

which may raise retail prices

so… rumours are essentially useless

[hoary hatch]

Dual Compute tile Could be core ultra 11 🧠

[hoary hatch]

I did stare deeply at the $550 B5 48" in best buy yesterday

[south shuttle]

ultra 11 sounds poor

[hoary hatch]

It would be a monitor?

[south shuttle]

has to be ultra 9.9 or ultra 19

xd

[hoary hatch]

Ultra 8

[south shuttle]

ultra 5 -> ultra 7 -> ultra 9 -> ultra 8

[fringe vigil]

Here it is boys

[hoary hatch]

Use on desk or living room

[fringe vigil]

My desk obvs lol

[hoary hatch]

Hey your country has small houses it could be a living room tv

[fringe vigil]

shut up

[opal jasper]

i mean tbh a straight 6 e30 is gonna be great

and it gets rid of the problem of e30 being a lot of money to go slow

[shell void]

yeah i dont care about this

i bought a $3000 gpu and a $1200 ssd bro

ill pay $1000 for the top nova lake cpu if i have to

im very curious to see whether Jaykihn or Kopite will be correct, but im leaning towards Jaykihn

[fringe vigil]

In what world does a ssd cost 1200$

[dusty lotus]

2010

[topaz veldt]

That one is long gone. I have another s52 swapped e30 in my driveway

[shell void]

optane

[steel stream]

it calls to me

[brisk jolt]

@low sorrel honestly my opinion of gold is starting to change to “learn how to shoot ur gun and use abilities decently well” with my ass pulling this spectacular hs rate

[edgy laurel]

calm down

[topaz veldt]

im debating on getting one

just dunno where I'd put it

does OLED work OK at low temperature?

[shell void]

how low we talkin

[topaz veldt]

I'd prob only watch if its like 32 deg

like 32-45

[shell void]

theoretically it's fine above freezing

[topaz veldt]

but is it like LCDs where its super dim and slow I wonder

[shell void]

im not sure about the brightness part, but the organic material in the panel itself prefers being cold

it's not like lcd where it gets faster because it's hotter

the only concern i would have is condensation

[hoary hatch]

Haven't you already bought multiple TVs this year

[green marsh]

what game ? Headshots aren't everything in every game 😄

[fringe vigil]

I just wanna open my oled now ugh

[opal jasper]

ah k

[fringe vigil]

i dont like how the m is lower case now wtf

[steel stream]

uhh no comment

[steel stream]

he was 2.61 milli subscribers not million

[steel stream]

i need a bedroom tv

[topaz veldt]

thats my channel

[fringe vigil]

sure

[whole coral]

Yooo snow maybe

First snowstorm of the season maybe for parts of the northeast

[topaz veldt]

prob gonna be too warm

[whole coral]

Unfortunately for the coast yeah

Inland areas will do better

[topaz veldt]

this is all i see

...

Its west of Azerbaijan

[dusty lotus]

considering how lcds act up in low temperature, thats because lcds have PHYSICAL crystals moving whereas oled is material that doesnt move at all and makes light by itself so low temperature could actually benefit an oled panel

[topaz veldt]

so does it work just as good at like 25 degrees?

[dusty lotus]

if celsius it should work normal under 0

the electronics inside the monitor/tv are the concern at low temps instead

didnt linus do a temperature test on an lcd?

it went -40c before it started acting up

[keen spear]

Is this cpu graph better then just a linear min temp-max temp curve

[merry stirrup]

do you want the spiel

[keen spear]

Hell yeah

[merry stirrup]

Your fan curve depends on your ears, temps, and cooler. We can’t give you any insightful info on just a picture or even through your specs, whether your pc is too loud is entirely on you

[keen spear]

Its already very quiet, i was mostly just wondering if a curve like this one is better for overall performance then just a straight line between max temp and min temp.

[merry stirrup]

my only recommendation is increasing the hysteris past 2, this is the minimum temperature fluctuation required for it to actually make changes to the fan speed

[devout ridge]

this is my fan curve, and i love it

[merry stirrup]

temps to performance is basically as simple as “is it running at X clock and X perf metric”

[dusty lotus]

my fan curves are whatever

[merry stirrup]

running your fans at a higher speed is likely not getting you any more performance so long as you’re not throttling, especially on older chips like a 3600

[merry stirrup]

legit i just have static 40% across my entire pc besides the ram fan

[keen spear]

Yeah throttling is what im kinda afraid off

[brisk jolt]

Valorant lmao

[devout ridge]

this is the fan on my AIO, so if i am doing something really intensive i do want some more cooling, but otherwise i have it set so my PC is silent

[dusty lotus]

throttling on a 3600?

[merry stirrup]

as long as you’re not on a stock cooler and do any extended loads, you’re not throttling

[keen spear]

this is what i made so far

[brisk jolt]

stock cooler? more like placing a towel acting as the heatsink

[dusty lotus]

some stock coolers are good

[keen spear]

I believe i do have a stock cpu cooler

[merry stirrup]

the stock cooler on a 3600 will make it throttle through like 5+ minute all core loads

but if you’re not dailying cinebench it’s fine

won’t even throttle in games

[dusty lotus]

people worry too much about throttling on low end chips

[keen spear]

My gpu fans broke thats why i started this whole thing xd

[merry stirrup]

people worry about throttling too much in general

[dusty lotus]

my 14700k was fine with an air cooler

[merry stirrup]

basically if the pc is working and the game is still open there is likely nothing wrong

[dusty lotus]

got an aio anyways

[merry stirrup]

kinda it

[keen spear]

But its fun to tinker

And eventually maybe break something

[topaz veldt]

basically what I have but it hard spikes to high mode at like 80C

[dusty lotus]

i prefer to have my fans run at low speeds during idle, i got fan stop on when its cold inside the pc

[merry stirrup]

yes so with the knowledge you’ve gained it would make sense to make your fan curve as quiet as you can while maintaining decent temps, say 90c max on the cpu, or 85

[dusty lotus]

or make an aggressive curve

[hoary hatch]

So it's more than 3

[dusty lotus]

low speed on low temps and high speed halfway to 100

[steel stream]

in the past year like 6 i think

[hoary hatch]

What the how the fuck the

[steel stream]

most of them got returned

[hoary hatch]

Idea
You move here
You buy TVs from best buy
You return them close to closing
I buy them open box next day at opening

Profit

[steel stream]

hmmmmm

[hoary hatch]

So I got notified of my H2 bonus

Company targets 11% annually with 2 distribution periods (target 5.5% each)
I had a prorated (only FTE for 5 of the 6 months of this fiscal half) 8.8% bonus

I should buy a z fold

[young void]

Late to the party but final version of msi afterburner dropped last month

[karmic folio]

is this meta

[hoary hatch]

https://tenor.com/view/patrickstar-spongebob-funnygifs-no-thisispatrick-gif-5374126

[karmic folio]

do they actually classify it as open box tho

[hoary hatch]

Yeah but sometimes open box isn't much of a discount

[karmic folio]

oh alr lol

[young void]

The zotac build did its best could probs bump alittle higher gpu side but meh

then it’s to let amd make gaming gpus for the consumer

[fringe vigil]

Have yall ate thanksgiving dinners

[steel stream]

not yet

[fringe vigil]

i bet the food is gonna slap

[hoary hatch]

It is 11am

[fringe vigil]

Oh

What time yall eat

[small whale]

Im asking for a friend but his computer keeps asking for the recovery key but when I put it in it loops back

[young void]

And the msi build, good enough

[dense pelican]

Does anybody here have the Arctic Liquid Freezer Pro III 360? How are the temps, are they loud etc.?

[young void]

Did my best for now xD

[young void]

They're good if mounted correctly temps depend on bios limits/settings

[topaz veldt]

It's not loud the pro fans are better than regular

[civic reef]

@wise bear Unfortunately my R7 2700 & B450 ventures may be halted

The guy was testing the board and it was being inconsistent with video output

It may turn into an R7 2700 + A320 or something similar

Otherwise I may have to go with the new parts route, aka an A520M-H + R5 5600x / R5 5500 (hopefully not a 5500)

[dense pelican]

mounted correctly, ah you mean whether they’re top/side ?

[young void]

Just enough pressure on the screws and paste to make contact

Deviled eggs done, potatoes chopped about to be boiled, green beans casserole in the crock pot, and ofc turkey has been stuffed with onions garlic and a lemon, with 4 sticks of herb butter and basted every 45 mins or so and has had its injections of sauce lol

Coming alonggg

[steel stream]

looking good!

[limber void]

Never heard of the dude

[ocean ridge]

If I plug my rgb connector to the header the wrong way any chance it’ll like short my mobo? Fans came with rgb and argb splitters, placed the 4 pin in reverse and it fried the fans but idk about mobo

[young void]

If it misses the slot should just not light up, just turn the system off and reseat it

Had some corsair fans that had a gap around the headers on the fan side so sometimes it'd plug in slightly to the plastic vs the pin slots

Ofc theres always a chance of shorting something but super duper unlikely unless you mess with it with the system on (note always do changes and fixes with the system and psu off)

[fringe vigil]

omgggggggg

post more food

[young void]

Very sooons!!

[fringe vigil]

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

[young void]

Ill show once its baked lol but she said she was craving them so whom am I to tell her no

🤌

[fringe vigil]

very nice

[young void]

Should crisp up

[fringe vigil]

wil it taste nice

[topaz veldt]

Do you do instant pot for hard boiling?

[young void]

Just boil in a pot for like 15 minutes

[topaz veldt]

I do the 5-5-5 instant pot thing for eggs it's awesome, then food processor for the deviled filling

Food processor is cheat mode

[oak vector]

Lmaooo.
Yeah I heard he’s an ancient legend or something. 😭

[young void]

I only got yee old fork for now but the Mrs said a food processor in the future is noicee

[fringe vigil]

do you make stuffing

[young void]

Breadmix stuff onions and shallots and no celery this year

Not made yet but soons

[loud depot]

is there a way i can change my rgb lights from software?

fans are connected with hub

[young void]

Signalrgb mayhaps

[oak vector]

Also happy thanksgiving
Even tho I don’t celebrate it lol

[loud depot]

and i can only change with button

[loud depot]

yea ik but i cant because i can only change it from the button

[young void]

Oh then

[edgy laurel]

Depends, is this hub also connected to the motherboard via ARGB?

[young void]

Share pics once she's all together ❤️

Jorj requested all the foods

[loud depot]

i think yes

[low sorrel]

huh i so think i should wake up early for this one @shell void

[loud depot]

u mean the top right thingy

[loud depot]

whats is that bro

[edgy laurel]

If the hub supports / is connected to allow motherboard ARGB pass through than SignalRGB should work fine

[loud depot]

how is it so cheap

[low sorrel]

newegg doorbuster deals

they in stock for about 1 minute on newegg

[loud depot]

it probably doesnt allow it

can i order from greece 😂

[pure garnet]

yes 100%

[hoary hatch]

Tempting

[low sorrel]

time to wake up in the morning and try to snipe it and it to sell out in 0.1s

[low sorrel]

Are doorbuster deals limited in the amount you can order at once

Because my brother also wants one

[pure garnet]

pretty sure yes

just both wake up and try

[outer vine]

im building my first pc and following linus' video and got to the test boot step and it hasn't turned on so I decided to check if there was something wrong with the fan and this just happened

[young void]

Turn the psu off

Then say done lol

[shell void]

$100? LOL

yeah i’m definitely gonna try to get one

[hoary hatch]

They probably have like 100 allocated for that

[shell void]

probably even less

[hoary hatch]

The laptop is the real deal

[low sorrel]

world record fastest sale sell out time

oh wow that is a good deal

[lunar wedge]

Insane deal

[minor heart]

well the lower end didnt pique my interest, only the skyline did(its top end) but at its top end it only matches edge 60 stylus prociewise

[young void]

The ever so fancy can of olives in a Bowl xD

(Just snacks lol)

[minor heart]

and e 60 stylus is basically a budget mid ranger, with exception that the nokia has 12gb ram and 10 months older vs 8gb

[hoary hatch]

Be honest, the only way to actually get this is to use a bot to snipe it, right?

[steel stream]

bro whattt

would

[hoary hatch]

I may as well try

[steel stream]

same, may the odds be ever in your favor

[shell void]

yeah they’re probably only going to sell like 5 units at that price to be honest

[low sorrel]

yall gonna take all the stock lol

all 5 units

[hoary hatch]

Naw I can't click fast enough

[shell void]

brother jaykihn replied to the dual bllc claim and said he isn’t refuting it but hasn’t heard about it

what would dual bllc even cost? $1000?

i mean shit i’ll buy it if it does exist but im skeptical

[hoary hatch]

Dual bLLc would be a pretty large package

[steel stream]

unlimited cache

[hoary hatch]

Idea
Stick the cache in the base tile

[shell void]

radical

[hoary hatch]

Could give it a cool name like adamantine or something

[shell void]

imagine if they did that with clearwater forest using the exact same base tile tech as what will go into nova lake

[steel stream]

what does bro know

[shell void]

that would be crazy

(they are)

intel 3 active base tile supports llc

but sure i’ll take the jumbo compute tiles that’s more fun

[ocean ridge]

Did indeed short something

Very fun time was had, unsure if mobo shorted tho

[hoary hatch]

12 raptor cove cores on Intel 3 and lga1700 would go hard

[outer vine]

it's still not booting and I've checked my connections multiple times

[shell void]

bit late for that i think with 52 cores on the horizon

hard to be excited about anything else

[hoary hatch]

Well it would have gone hard 18 months ago

Yes it is too late now

[whole coral]

https://youtu.be/INZybkX8tLI?si=aXkLwWiw7eBC2RU0

lol he’s gonna try to shove 6,000 watts into a kettle

240 volts at 25 amps through an 18 gauge wire

[low sorrel]

can it boil water tho

[whole coral]

Yes at 55 seconds lmao

Insanely fast

[hoary hatch]

Nice

[young void]

Down to just bread rolls and gravy then done

[hoary hatch]

My kettle is pretty slow, but I boil water maybe twice a month so it's not an issue

[fringe vigil]

what is that thrid pic

[hoary hatch]

I'm not even at Thanksgiving yet, but here's the pie I'm bringing

[shell void]

i just finished thanksgiving dinner

my fam eats early

[shell void]

[young void]

Sweet potato with roasted marshmallows topping with brown sugar and butter

Oh and the roasted Brussels spouts

Wheewww

[edgy laurel]

It’s only 4:30, I should slow down on the GnT’s

[hoary hatch]

It's only 1:30

I'll be arriving just before 2

Time to find floppa

[edgy laurel]

Carter

[hoary hatch]

He's close, ish

[edgy laurel]

Floppa is coming over????

[hoary hatch]

@merry stirrup I'm in floppa land

[hoary hatch]

No I'm just in his area for thanksgiving

[young void]

We are having the in laws over and they wanted an early dinner so making it work

[hoary hatch]

But I should bring him a care package of ewaste at some point

[young void]

Itll be more time to straighten up luckily

[edgy laurel]

Oh, shoot. Woulda been the first TC2 IRL meetup

[hoary hatch]

Aren't you and 5nail also in the same State

[edgy laurel]

We live like 30 minutes away from each other

[hoary hatch]

Bruh

And you haven't gotten lunch or something?

[edgy laurel]

I’m weird like that

[hoary hatch]

Okay, doesn't have to be lunch
It can be 2am taco bell

[edgy laurel]

2am Taco Bell is not something 40yos do

As much as I disagree

[hoary hatch]

I uhh

I don't think I can do that anymore

[edgy laurel]

We’re fast asleep at 2am

Well maybe not him with kids

I’m already tipsy. Perks of no kids

[fringe vigil]

on my list i will go to usa one day and experience a usa thanksgiving

[hoary hatch]

You can experience thanksgiving dinner over there

[fringe vigil]

uh not really

[hoary hatch]

No turkeys?

You can do a ham

[edgy laurel]

It’s mostly socializing with people and then eating overcooked turkey

[fringe vigil]

yum

[young void]

Anytime fam always got an extra plate

[oak vector]

I’ve never experienced thanksgiving lmao

[edgy laurel]

Ok back to the madness

[hoary hatch]

I've never cooked a turkey

It's both intimidating and too much food for my household

But if I were to cook one, I'd probably spatchcock it

Brine and spatchcock should be relatively fool proof?

[oak vector]

Literally no.
But metaphorically, yeah, we have some random stuff that makes it interesting.

[fringe vigil]

theyre quite popular in austraalia i imagine

[hoary hatch]

Schools are off for Thursday and Friday
Most people have Thursday off

[oak vector]

here in Australia
Our school year ends at the end of the calendar year (so in December, usually the first week)
Then we usually get a 6-8 week break over Christmas/summer

[fringe vigil]

tf

[young void]

Ok now im done lmao dies

[hoary hatch]

6 week summer lol

Actually I generally wished our schools were year round

We had a few in the city that did year round. Still had a 6-8 week summer, but had an extra week at Christmas and spring

[oak vector]

Well our summer isn’t that short trust me

[hoary hatch]

Lol back in Arizona summer begins in March and ends in October

[oak vector]

Tf
On the calendar year there’s like only three months dedicated to summer

I mean realistically it’s probably 4 or 5

[hoary hatch]

Weather wise

[oak vector]

Ah yeah

[hoary hatch]

Okay maybe more like April

But there's 2 seasons where I'm from: summer and not summer

[oak vector]

I’m quite far south in Australia so it gets hot, but not super hot

[hoary hatch]

Adelaide?

[oak vector]

You go up to Queensland or the Northern Territory
They just have wet and dry season, doesn’t drop below 23c

[hoary hatch]

It is the only city in southern Australia I can name

[oak vector]

Melbourne lol

[hoary hatch]

Oh damn

[oak vector]

I'm lookong to upgrade to Am5 with this bundle, on sale for 500$... but no ddr5 ram ffs

[vapid belfry]

At first glance i thought that was mold lol

Yeah no fuck that, ram is way too expensive..

[pallid marsh]

Ddr5 is like doubling in price every week

[vapid belfry]

Is it just me or DDR4 Ram didn't take as much of a price hit as DDR5?

[pallid marsh]

Ddr4 is now at ddr5 old regular price 🤣

[vapid belfry]

Who has 32gb DDR5 ram to sell me? 🙂

[pallid marsh]

Best buy for $300 usd

[vapid belfry]

Thats like $500 canadian maple syrup dollars hell no lol

my 5800x and 32gb ram bundle that i got for 130 usd costs less then the ram does now

paid -20 dollars for the 5800x

[vapid belfry]

A 7600x3d and a B650 gigabyte mobo and 1TB ssd bundle is cheaper than ddr5 ram..

[low sorrel]

yep

welcome to late 2025

[vapid belfry]

3 weeks ago that same bundle came with ddr5 ram, i fucked up by not buying

How long do we think this ram shortage is going to last? Anyone got predictions?

[vapid belfry]

By the time ram prices go down the price of a 9800x3d might go down lol

[edgy laurel]

You never did get into DDR5 did you

[low sorrel]

no

[edgy laurel]

[low sorrel]

and at this rate probably never will

[pallid marsh]

When the bubble pops 😆

[edgy laurel]

I’m going to enjoy 32GB for the long haul now

[low sorrel]

ddr6 is probably when im gonna get a new cpu

[edgy laurel]

Had plans to move to 48 or 64GB when Zen6 dropped

I have to close Chrome now with 32GB to play Stalker 2

[low sorrel]

so if ram prices never go down again how much do you think ddr6 is gonna cost

[edgy laurel]

Too much

GnT’s may be affecting my decisions.

[random flame]

I had considered getting 48 gigs eventually, though now I wonder if a rush for them will be necessary, just to get a kit.

[shell void]

this proves that theyve been purposefully throttling production

if they can just choose to up it eightfold in such a short time

i hate the dram+nand mafia over in korea

[karmic folio]

[random flame]

I mean, they kind of mentioned they were holding back anyway.

At least somewhere.

And mostly because they didn't want to get burned again on oversupply when or if the bubble finally implodes or such.

[shell void]

sorry guys we cant stop fricking you because our shareholders would be mad if we couldnt price gouge

Which of course, they're doing it to everyone, with us getting the brunt of it.

it’s joever man you know this

Seeing RAM usage that high is concerning

my ram usage rarely gets above 30%

Can someone help me with my room decor/setup upgrade (not pc)? It’s the budget that I’m struggling with.

No no no no

[devout ridge]

Yes yes yes yes

[young void]

Have you considered a lava lamp

[devout ridge]

lava lamps*

[young void]

XD

[devout ridge]

more lava lamps the better

[undone mulch]

Like a console, or tv, lava lamp is really good, new monitor, any of that?

[young void]

No qualms, monitors are neat whatever you want/like we all have quirks

[devout ridge]

buy everything

[undone mulch]

The budgets 450-650

That’s my room

[odd sable]

Paint it all black

[undone mulch]

That’s what I was thinking

I’m putting a 5050 in my pc and a new case with rgb so I want something that’ll shine on all the black walls and furniture

So Lana lamp is good

Here’s my budget

The gpu besides the case, is already 250,

So I’d have like, 250-450 left cause I’d be at 350

Facebook marketplace the option?

Anyone…?

I’m getting my first bit of money tomorrow

So that’s why I kinda need to make a decision

[young void]

Whatever makes youuu happy fams, I believe you will find the answers

[undone mulch]

Facebook marketplace?

[young void]

Could just ask to see whatever it is tested upon purchase, but up to you. Ebay also has money back garuntee and Amazon (if sold and shipped by Amazon as seller)

[undone mulch]

Ok

[vagrant cargo]

now why did you have to not clean it up first?

Wot

[ripe fable]

Would a 140mm aio cool a 9950x3d 💀

[topaz veldt]

Ew

[young void]

At that point just get an air cooler $40 peerless

[ripe fable]

Can’t fit any air cooler in my case

Nzxt h1 v2

[young void]

If you must just run on eco mode 1 or 2 probs fine (or can limit watts)

[ripe fable]

Currently running a 7900x3d and probably gonna upgrade to a 9000x3d cpu (black Friday sales in my area have been going crazy)

I don’t care about gaming too much so would a 9900x3d be a good option?

[pallid marsh]

Aircoolers are better and cheaper

[ripe fable]

The middle choice between 800 and 950

[young void]

If you want to sures

[ripe fable]

Yep, can’t fit any in my case

[pallid marsh]

Bigger case ezpz

[ripe fable]

Mini itx

I don’t feel like abandoning this little heater

[pallid marsh]

Go mini atx

[ripe fable]

Fair

[topaz veldt]

What's this mean though

[ripe fable]

I saved $700 on an openbox 5080

Peak savings so now i’m just willing to upgrade my cpu

Oh yeah this is CAD not USD

Would a 7900x3d and a 9900x3d generate the same heat?

[pallid marsh]

Why get the worst version of the x3d chips?

[ripe fable]

Productivity

Idk

Mostly haven’t cared too much about gaming for a while, mostly been editing and 3d modeling stuff so idk what to choose

And would a 9900x3d with a 5080 be able to supported with 750w?

[ripe fable]

?

[wooden kiln]

Yo anyone here knows pcs I made a support box but they just ignoring me

[ripe fable]

Can’t help, mostly trying to figure what’s the best to upgrade to.

[pallid marsh]

Get a cheaper none x3d

Or a core ultra CPU

[ripe fable]

I don’t want to change motherboard companies

Currently on a x870 i

Nearly everything I own is openbox 💀 💀 💀

[pallid marsh]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/bwxRsY/amd-ryzen-9-7900x-47-ghz-12-core-processor-100-100000589wof $323

[young void]

80$ lol not bad for the lot though but throwback case

[ripe fable]

Guessing that’s usd so let me check with the place I get my stuff

[pure garnet]

if you’re on a 7900x3d the only meaningful upgrade rn imo is a 9950x3d

[ripe fable]

I was thinking the same but currently in the constraints of

• will 750w be enough for a 5080 and 9950x3d
• will a 140mm aio cool it enough.
• i mostly use revit and davinci

I am still within the return period and could downgrade to a 5070 ti if wattage will be an issue

[pure garnet]

5080 is what, 340w?

it should be fine

[ripe fable]

5070 ti and 5080 is like a 8% difference so i could care less about that.

[pure garnet]

yeah they’re also barely any difference power draw wise either

[ripe fable]

50w less

[pure garnet]

if you already own the 5080 and the 5070ti isn’t considerably cheaper i wouldn’t bother downgrading

[minor bone]

PSA: Its a fucking terrible time to buy ram

[ripe fable]

I got the 5080 for $900 cad and the 5070 ti msi shadow open box is $700 so idk

[shell void]

downgrading seems like a waste of time to me

[ripe fable]

Fair fair

[shell void]

9950X3D is 230W PPT, and the 5080 is going to be ~350W

itll be totally fine on a 750W PSU

[ripe fable]

Fair, now then would my current 140mm aio cool a 9950x3d, it’s currently cooling a 7900x3d and I see no issues

[devout ridge]

and in gaming you likely won't even hit 230w on the 9950x3d

[ripe fable]

Davinci?

Probably not

[ripe fable]

What about VR

[lethal topaz]

vr is more gpu intensive

[ripe fable]

Yeah 2 displays simultaneously rendering fair

[lethal topaz]

maybe ill be fine another 5 years on my 850w

[pure garnet]

realistically even if you gotta power cap it’s probably still faster

[ripe fable]

The 9900x is 650 and the 9900x3d is $675 and the 9950x3d is $700. I dont care about price tbf mostly just concerned about the aio now💀 💀 💀

These are all black friday sales in my area

[pure garnet]

9950x3d no brainer tbh

[ripe fable]

Yep, now will the 140mm aio be able to cool it while just doing basic video editing, and 3d architectural modeling?

Basic video editing probably yeah

3d modeling in general tho?

🤷

[pure garnet]

it probably can

worst case scenario you just apply a power cap

[ripe fable]

Fair

Alright, all my questions were answered, now to blow up this pc

💀

[shell void]

are you stuck with this 140mm aio?

360mm aios are like $50 nowadays

[ripe fable]

Nzxt h1 v2 case

Just not willing to upgrade this heater yet 💀

[shell void]

it should be fine

if it throttles a little in renders then womp womp it'll still be significantly faster than the 7900x3d

[ripe fable]

Came with a 140mm aio and 750w psu

Fair

I was planning on upgrading my ram but then i saw that companies are greedy and they hoarded 40% of it all

[grizzled lily]

9950x3d is 574 at microcenter

[dusty lotus]

and people said intel is expensive

[vapid belfry]

I solved it guys

[hoary hatch]

Naw you can get better mini pc deals

[wraith steeple]

One of those 3.5 floppies has Lemmings on there

and it surprisingly still works 30+ years later

[crisp oracle]

Is a 7800x3d still a decent buy nowadays

[young void]

What do you currently have?

(It is but if you need ram myte be doomed)

[pallid marsh]

Yes depending on the price

[hoary hatch]

It's a good processor

[crisp oracle]

I wanna get on am5 before this gets worse

[crisp oracle]

5800x

[young void]

$70 more bucks for the 9800x3d myte be worth thinking about as you save for ram

If already doing the upgrade but both are good

[crisp oracle]

It’s way more than $70 cus I’m wanting to just get a microcenter bundle

[young void]

Ohh that makes more sense if the deals good full send

[crisp oracle]

If I didn’t kinda need good IO I could go with a worse mobo and 98x3d

[young void]

Send pics when you set her up

[crisp oracle]

Aight

Prolly gonna do it early January

I wanna just bite the bullet on ddr5 before it gets worse

I’ve been putting off am5 for awhile and now ddr5 is well over double in price

[young void]

Hopefully it doesn't burn to large a hole in your pocket 🍀 keep scouring those deals

[crisp oracle]

Hopefully 🤞 rn i think ima try to grab some ddr5 for Black Friday

[stark snow]

whats the maintenance like on an aio like the arctic freezer III? As in how much do you have to do/how often? I'm thinking of recommending my friend one, but I honestly don't know too much about them.

[young void]

https://tenor.com/view/south-park-its-gone-gif-4104229

5-10 years depending maybe longer maybe less as most pc parts

[shell void]

you can replace a fan if it dies, but otherwise you just wait for the liquid inside to evaporate or for the pump to die

servicing AIOs isnt a thing that people do

theyre not designed to be easily serviceable

[young void]

Just yeet and get a new one

[oak vector]

I wish I was American now
An extra holiday
An extra day to eat way too much good food

i need help, on this build, does the elgato still fit at the bottom?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WqGY4p

[analog plover]

Yes the elgato will fit

[autumn jewel]

even with 3 fans at the bottom?

[analog plover]

Shouldn’t be an issue, you can use the second lowest slot

[autumn jewel]

i just didnt know if the 5070ti takes up too much space to the point where the fans at the bottom + the graphics card took too much space

because i was planning to have the screen on the top like this and then move the cpu cooler on to the right

[analog plover]

The second lowest slot is clear so it’ll fit

[autumn jewel]

oh thats just an image i found but my case is different

[analog plover]

The only difference is your case has fan mounts at the top

It’ll fit

[autumn jewel]

should i still mount fans at the top?

or would i not have enough room

[analog plover]

You’ll have room

Thats up to you my man

Honestly tho if your gonna do the screen I would get the version of the case thats in the pic

[autumn jewel]

i can do that

this is all i bought so far

[analog plover]

Its all up to you, but if I was building something like that with the screen I would do the one with the glass top

[autumn jewel]

okie i can switch cases

i need a suggestion for a 1x8gb ddr4 ram stick for my upcoming pc (rx 580 ryzen 5 3600)

ramageddon fucked my plan of 2x8gb sticks

[analog plover]

Find a proper kit used

[dapper junco]

Looks like it, lowest price historically of this monitor. LG is running a real black friday sale for this monitor
Tho this monitor is definitely more catered towards immersive gaming experience instead of crazy fast response time like the asus tandem oled model

[merry stirrup]

i’m in washington for thanksgiving LOL

[fervent elm]

State or dc...

[spiral quarry]

I got many questions to the previous user of this machine lol

[young void]

[indigo walrus]

[spiral quarry]

[low sorrel]

[low sorrel]

[dapper junco]

Yes you got scammed

[warped mountain]

Why doesn't Apple ship their MacBooks at native resolution?

I set my MBP 14 to 2560x1600 and it's feels pretty good.

When it was from the factory it felt like IDK.. everything just seemed like overly large. Like those phones for children with the big buttons. Oh and for the elderly

[dapper junco]

the box is for an am4 cpu but you got an older cpu

[pulsar rose]

'Oh no'.
'I definitely bought it and it definitely isn't a joke'!

[dapper junco]

you got an athlon ii to be exact

[pulsar rose]

For if someone thinks it's legit. I just have a pile of stuff that I put in old boxes for fun

[warped mountain]

Is there a way to Force 120 hertz reading things while I'm scrolling isn't really working.

[brave panther]

what OS?

[warped mountain]

Mac

No idea which one, not the stupid glass update tho

[fringe vigil]

NO deals for UK LTT store

Only floatplane

[pale grove]

not like it's worth the price anyway

[warped mountain]

There's not really any deals anyways..

Like some of the combo deals but then the problem is is like they're listing it for what they would sell the components for but then if you Google the components and look at today's deals... Is like okay I saved five dollars

Like that headset.. it's only $10 more expensive today on Amazon..

I think this has been my least exciting LTT order.

[fringe vigil]

Why

I don’t see any deals on individual things either

[warped mountain]

And I'm going to be absolutely furious if I get a large couch potato... because the couch potato is the only one that fits me properly in the SAME medium size that I stupidly bought three other LTT hoodies in .. and that's why I went up to a size large mystery hoodie...

I wanted the FP one but like I can't really justify $70 for a hoodie...

[fringe vigil]

That’s crazy

[warped mountain]

My most expensive other LTT hoodie is my wan hoodie at $82

I really wanted the new colorway but I can't pay $150...

[fringe vigil]

Merch is ahh

[pale grove]

can't say for the UK but in mainland Europe shipping and taxes add like 30 to 50 dollars on top of the product's price

[fringe vigil]

I know

the deskmatt would cost me 60 gpb to deliver here

[warped mountain]

Yeah that's what he also used to charge for shipping to the United States...

[fringe vigil]

Mf

[pale grove]

no sale can justify that price

it's a desk mat 😭

[warped mountain]

I mentioned that earlier like although I appreciate that the free shipping is not $300 minimum and now it's $100

the thing is is apparently cuz they revamped their entire shipping since lime day I would have only paid $12 to ship.... So like.... I mean I guess it's good it stops you from only purchasing on these big event days... I can buy it whenever... it's only $12 to ship I don't really care... but like yeah doesn't feel like a great Black Friday deal...

Bear in mind my last LTT shipment which was similar in size had $58 worth of shipping fees waived....

Really big difference going from $58 to only $12 to ship something.

[warped mountain]

Wait is that with LTT collecting all the taxes and Vat (or whatever ... )

or do you have to pay it twice because LTT can't prove that you paid it later, and therefore would be in violation of law if you chose not to pay it.

[pale grove]

Okay, just checked the store, for just a screwdriver, the shipping plus taxes now add 48 dollars canadian (or 30 euros, apparently thats the default currency for the global store) to ship to germany, bringing the total to 138 cad or 85 euros

[fringe vigil]

Idk I think including VAT

And delivery

80 something CAD

[pale grove]

deskpad would be 80.90 cad

[fringe vigil]

Bruh

[pale grove]

50 euros for a deskpad

[fringe vigil]

Don’t bec you’re putting me off buying it now

[pale grove]

thats what im kinda trying to do

make a rational choice

is the price worth it for the deskpad

[turbid locust]

Black Friday. You know what’s not on sale? RAM.

[pale grove]

it says shipping free from 100+ is only for floatplane subscribers

[fringe vigil]

Sigh

[pale grove]

unless you're planning to buy more LTT stuff it might not be worth it jorj

[warped mountain]

dont yall make like $40 euro an hour over there?

[pale grove]

im a broke student without a job

[warped mountain]

for now ... Black friday deals dint start for everyone else for another 4hrs 20 minutes

[proven saddle]

I make 6 euros per day

[pale grove]

oh didnt see that

[warped mountain]

ohhh ... umm habe parents buy?

[pale grove]

whys that a thing

[warped mountain]

FP got 24hrs early access to black friday

and i think i heard wan will be at 10AM canada time (bout when the 24 hrs ends for FP subs)

[warped mountain]

ok i dont knwo teh context of that. how many euro is a big mac at mcdonalds?

[proven saddle]

Of euros?

[warped mountain]

ye

so i know what 6 euro buying power is there

[fringe vigil]

I wouldn’t mind but it’s gonna be expensive + the pad is soo nice though lol

[warped mountain]

like is that a bubblegum or 15 cars

teh desk pads are REALLY nice

[fringe vigil]

If BF brings it down to 40 GBP I wouldn’t mind

[warped mountain]

but teh designs left are boring

[pale grove]

a lot of countries use the euro and the buying power differs a lot per country

[warped mountain]

https://tenor.com/view/mom-pompous-sarabi-lion-king-gif-16643917

i have Sarah designs

[proven saddle]

Uhh a chicken burger is 2,50 euros

[proven saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/giga-gigacat-cat-mewing-mogging-gif-12429734670640119345

[warped mountain]

right that why i was asking. but also kinda no. because one euro buys 1 euro worth of stuff, just some areas over charge for good/services because they can, or because thayy have to due to tax

[warped mountain]

lik a Mccrispy?

[proven saddle]

Ye with giand chicken bugget

[proven saddle]

Nah other one

[livid prairie]

why r black friday deals so buns

[fringe vigil]

So ass

[warped mountain]

?

[proven saddle]

Should be

[warped mountain]

walmart had a good deal on a 4050 gaming laptop for liek $500 0.0 last gen ... but still $500!

[proven saddle]

Ye go 2x higher al usual then do regular price then a littel up

[livid prairie]

usa sounds nice, everything in aus is twice as expensive

[proven saddle]

50 kebabs

[proven saddle]

Australia?

[livid prairie]

mhm, laptops are around 1000 for bare minimum specs

[proven saddle]

Or austria

Tuf

[warped mountain]

Whoops I lied this one! 5050 is 40% faster than 4050.

[livid prairie]

how much usd would u expect a 32gb ram/1tb ssd to cost

[proven saddle]

Man i do hate ram shortages

[warped mountain]

Really good deal on air pods

[warped mountain]

It's $2.99 USD plus tax here

[warped mountain]

.y'all ear a fuck ton more tho. AND have decent social support system and education system.

Well good enough

[pale grove]

i mean like, wages can differ a lot per country and even supermarket prices can be doubled/halved depending on where you go

[fringe vigil]

Are they even good

I have some JBL tune flex

[pale grove]

well australia's currency is like half that of the usd

[warped mountain]

Yeah it's complicated because a currency is directly tied to the amount of gold it can buy.. and gold determines the amount of goods you can buy.

[livid prairie]

eh our educations pretty ass

[pale grove]

currencies arent tied to gold standard anymore are they

[livid prairie]

still pmo that some stores offer 8/256 configurations for up to 1300
