On god
The only part of this time of year I like is the fact my drinks in the garage are pre-chilled lmfao
yeah I just set my drinks out on my balcony lol
Anyone know how to fix a problem with PC randomly freezing and becoming fully unresponsive when gaming. And how would one manage to fix the issue

lot of troubleshooting. trial and error
unfortunately that (like most things) doesn't just have a single cause and single solution
Is there error logs or some document of info the PC stores with resons for the crash
you can save yourself a lot of time by starting with a fresh BIOS update, fresh windows install, fresh drivers and only the hardware installed/plugged in necessary for running the game.
i did take a photo of the temps and hadware usage while it was frozen
man i need to study arc raider strategy
shoot people not bots
death to the clankers
ChatGPT is watching you better watch out
we're gonna get Big Brother quick
imagine if AI bots get rights 💀
im a bish and use hatches lol
gotta use the tools at your disposal
if AI is able to buy property and purchases a home before me I might flip out
is good?
Ive never seen it so probably
how do i get a fireball burner
kill fireballs and loot them for it
ah
those rolly polly flamethrower dudes
yup yup
tonight we find out if Dimm Fit does anything
it doe sbut you need a stable tune
wait until they open up to shoot
there shoudl be like a karma rating
yeah I let it go ham with an 8800 “this is probably fine” tune 
Asrock has smth called like timing turbo boost, let me boot with the funkiest tune I've ever seen and blue screened upon starting Karhu
lil diff
karma based matchmaking
I am not proud of what I just did
This doesn’t tune timings. It basically brute forces various terminations and resistances and keeps what it thinks is the best
With the goal of allowing a higher max freq
ah
5nail def just backstabbed the shit out of someone
one more person whos never going to trust anyone ever again
No its terrible
5nail shot an 8 year old
in the head
after they called the lift and said don't shoot
and then i only took their candle stick
and left all the other shit lol
he looked suspicious
how much is the candle stick worth?
probably nothing
an acorn dropped nearby and scared you
if you kill them while the lift is closing you're the worst kinda person. can't even loot them! lol
no he was outside
640? Worth it
we were in a shack together and then.... i just....
lol
"it felt right"
I don't kill often
but when I do its really .... sad and pathetic
and usually unwarranted
when it feels right
$640 is $640 don't feel bad about that

yeah could be all sorts of diseases
ouch
got some deece stash room
pshhhhhhh
no good?
i don't have a hoarding problem
saw this
right into the music lmao
@steel stream dude is buying 265k + z890i for $415
I feel it'll go to a good home
how many hrs are you
i can't argue with that because I picked this game up on wednesday
You know whats funny about selling 265k? Its supposed to be a quicksync Plex server but it turned into an SFF plex server that has a 5090 for gaming
Plex deserves nothing but the best
finals are next week but who's keeping track
great game
my roommate played it to like 4 in the morning so I do not have as fond memories
“Why did you put my car in the garage?”
“I figured you didn’t want 3-6 inches of snow and sleet on your car when you go to leave in the morning”
“…oh. Thanks.”
this fucking guy
bro I wanted the snow on my car man

that really escalated real quick
the real reason was it was in the fucking way 
I was disguising it as a courteous gesture
smart
the best feeling in the world is driving somewhere with a 2" scraped hole in your windshield and tons of snow on top of your car
when it's like 0 degrees out
bonus points if you're already late
Trying to archive a reddit post on Wayback Machine but it's not working
maybe you can travel way back to find someone who fuckin asked
Rude
someone else said haha too lmao
Exactly
why cant I get 240 fps in fortnite on a 6900xt and a ryzen 5 5600x 💔
because the hardware can’t generate frames fast enough to display that many
turn down your settings
what settings are you on? also the 6900xt isnt that strong tbh
and ur on a 5600x
if you want 240fps, ur gonna need to be on performance settings at 1080p and have FSR on
@brave rock okay I don't have another one, what I'll do is I'll back up my install of windows 11, and I mean every on the drive and then I'll reinstall windows on the new SSD
assuming it works like that
sorry if im missing something, but why reinstall windows? is the new drive considerably faster than your old one?
my current one is 250GB
i decided I'll get a 1tb m.2 sata (don't have it yet I'll buy it during boxing Day sales) and I'll replace the current one
as I only have 1 m.2 port
if you have a spare pcie slot, you can get an adapter that allows for multiple m.2's at once, so you could reuse your 250gb one
emergency question!!!! is OLED with mid HDR (displayhdr trueblack 400) but good SDR worth it?
https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/aoc/agon-pro-ag276qzd2
400 USD
Hi. I have this monitor. It’s alright for the price. If you’ve never had an OLED monitor before it’ll be the best display you’ve ever used.
And that’s the same price as I paid for it on Black Friday 2024
Great
my GPU blocks my 2 pcie slots
i could go with a m.2 USB enclosure
a few...
im so pissed i had the clip of my life in arc raiders i wiped 3 full teams but it cut off like 80% of it because i had the clipping software to only save the last 2 minutes (cuz valorant)
I dont bother clipping val now cause replay system
I crashed out on two people starting with J the other day
both of them are very similarly full of shit
I used the replay system to prove my fkin point and they still made excuses
Like its was so fucking stupid I went to start studying afterwards for 4 hours straight
I forgot that we have a replay system now
jellyfin been working great
@edgy laurel I bought it. @turbid locust
It dropped down sub 250
Okay I've decided to try and sell my i7 4770, board, and 16gb rather than make it into a basic secondary gaming machine
I think I can get like $30-40 off of it?
so i want to get a good oled monitor with 500hz 27 inch the link i sent says its a 27 inch but in the product info says 26.5 inch at 480
https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Swift-Gaming-Monitor-PG27AQDP/dp/B0D7NXSQ44
Stay ahead of the game with the ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDP— the world’s first 1440p 480 Hz OLED monitor. Designed for esports and the latest action-packed AAA titles, this 27-inch QHD gaming monitor features a blazing-fast 480 Hz refresh rate for unbelievably smooth visuals and lightning-quick 0.03 ...
you are thinking of the Asus ROG XG27AQDPG
does it have 27 500hz 0.03 ms
also its not on the usa site
is this the best oled right now
until new gen
the one you are looking for isnt on us amazon rn. i saw its on bestbuy though, might be on newegg too
asus is rolling out the 540hz oled soon, it just launched in china nov 1st but isnt availible quite yet.
also has a new coating on it that seems quite good
so wait for that or buy the 500hz
whatever you want, im waiting mainly because of the coating on the monitor
trueblack glossy
and the one i picked doesnt?
nah
but is this the best oled on the market or theres something better at 1440p 27
Check prices on Amazon below
ASUS 540/720Hz: https://geni.us/UYePl
MSI 500Hz: https://geni.us/haSlg
Budget 240Hz OLED: https://geni.us/XpNPmP1
OLED 720Hz is actually real, but is it any good.
Need a new wallpaper? https://optimum.store
Video gear
Camera: https://geni.us/5YfMuy
Primary Lens: https://geni.us/pWnoPBr
so many brands asus LG AOC ETC
theres definitely better priced oleds
i just watched that 10 mins ago but its silv i like black since everything i have is black keyboard mouse Re20 mic audio interface etc etc
if you are after raw specs i dont think there is anything quite better unless you are looking at TN panels at 1080p
i just want something good for gaming tbh
what do you have now
i see oled is the new thing im currently on a asus tuff gaming 27 inch 280 OC
define “good”
better then ips
then what ur literally saying is any oled
those tuf panels are kinda shit tho i feel you, i had one for a few years
whats ur current gpu
5090
is there new tech now?
tandem
no like gpu wise
when u laughed i thought i was outdated
i laughed because thats a 2500$ gpu
oh lol
they had extras at work and i took it well i got the okay to do so
that sounds so bad to say yeah i just took it
https://youtu.be/WJUme7H1yQg
this is another tandem oled currently for sale

so u think i should wait since it will be release at the end of this year
if you are looking for the best and will move heaven and earth to get it than yeah i would wait
keep your eye on that asus monitor releasing soon
what would you say around xmas
idk im no insider
whats ur current
get the asus 4K 240hz tandem WOLED when it comes out
idk the model name bcs they have a fuckass naming scheme
Hfuwudyiwjdy
Is that the one
More pixels more better less frames
you have a 5090 you could bruteforce with dlss and fg to hit 120+ in heavy games anyways
so you saying stick with 1440p
since 4k has more pixels
Bitch you have a 5090 just get fucking 4k so your shit looks the best you can
alrighty
720p is wild in 2025
540hz 1440p on the other hand...
thats what i really want
the coating looks so fucking good
Sure then get it if all you play is CS and Val
i dont think i will notice anything higher then 500 tbh
and some early tests indicate it may actually be 0.02ms instead of 0.03
but who cares about a hundredth of a ms
funny number go down
lets hope old gen prices go down lol
spoke too soon i didnt know prices went down
32gb ram or oled monitor?
5070
Or ps5
400$ is a funny price point
Dude you can get a ps5 for 450 cad
well i have more then 32 / 64 ddr5 so i would say oled is my pick

i think ill take the hard drive route instead
i need storage in my nas
1400$ of hdds 
so my WD nvme i got is good enough or i got ripped off
i think i paid 2 something
let me check the exact price i got it for
if you truly have fuck you money to drop on pc stuff you should look at pcie gen 5 drives
they are quite cool
i think thats what i got since im on all new gen 9900X 5090 ddr5
but one thing i want to upgrade is my desk
not sure what are good legs for this countertop https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D543JV6G

are you short on space?
ummm well i just like 48 no need for a bigger desk and i dont like my pc on the desk
i just want the countertop thick
lasttime i bought one from amazon it said 1.5 but when i got it was 0.5
should i buy this birch butcher block from costco for 150 cad
this is 6ft x 2ft tho
72x25.5x1.75
its fine i just want goodd legs
what about really nice wooden farmhouse legs tho
i just use shelf brackets rated for like 1000lbs and put some narly lagbolts into studs
my main setup has 2, my project setup has 4 shelf brackets
is this a good butcher jerry

downside is from amazon mostly cheep shit
kinda short and kinda expensive no?
it looks nice but dont get a butcher block from amazon. see it first
where
one of my friends has a dope one from home depot im jealous of
costco even but home depot and lowes
i went they dont got what i want with the thickness
wdym
well i went to lowes and it was not thick like my current is
i like them like that
but lowes has only .7 thick
i havent shopped at lowes in a while so i wouldnt know
i only really go to lowes for decorative fixtures tbh
check home depots website tho
nope i tried man nothing
i tried lowes cuz my buddy can just give me employee discount
but homedepo told me what ever lowes got we got a few more not too much to the size you want
my local home depot has a half isle of butcher blocks
yeah i got the same and saw it in person but the thickness
maybe you dont know what 1.5in really looks like
it's 1.5 in???
thats what he said
unzips pants
yeah
but it dont look like that
send a pic of your desk
ok hold up
the thickness of it
looks like 2 in or 2.5 in
thats what she said
thats quite thick
pause

but how can i get one like what i got cuz this one became with bubbles
1.5in probably doesnt look right since its 4x2
if you switch to a 6x2 or perhaps 6x 2.5 it would look much better
i use 6x2
it do look like a shitty veneer
sand it
says meterials rubber wood
rubberwood veneer
yeah so fake shit
just build ur own desk
thats what i wanna do
spend 600$ in walnut boards and even more in tools
where did u buy it do you have a link
heres one of my last desks i made with walnut
i literally just go to stores
you statistically live within like 15 miles of a home depot
how do it hold up all those things and so thin
walnut is a hard wood and not made of cardboard
and realistically its holding up... a keyboard... a jar.... a mouse..
so is this worth it on amazon or find the same but in costco
you need to go feel the quality of the wood yourself
weight is a huge factor
if its light its garbage
the heavier the better right
my butcher blocks are solid core, i have two styles. my gaming desk is a bit cheaper, but its a wood core with a thick veneer (about 1/8 in). my project desk is a traditional butcher block made of individual blocks
i can custom make one
its not hard

at least if you have the tools already
what are good legs i should get
what draws are those
sit stand frame
and u just lower it to that level then
cabinet i built
this was back in 9th grade tho
long gone with that desk
the current one u got
thats the butcher block
ah okay but the draws do u have or u got ridd of it
how come u got rid of it
what does it look like currently
seen here
that does sound quite good i would do it
Helo
hi
Heyyy snails
Don't know if this is the right channel for it, but is anyone familiar with portainer? Just got it set up but all ports are sending me to 0.0.0.0, did I miss a step when configuring the networks?
hi
Id say yes 0.0.0.0 is no connection. Myte need to add the config or setup wifi depending how that works
My dumbass regrets not getting A die 32gigs for $120 sgd
For frigging real
here i am now looking at these prices (now its at 400 sgd)
Like bro, what the fuck?
Best part is, its still the cheapest DDR5 ram on the market
Coffee acquired today gonna grab like every mixamo animation possible, then create a few metahumans, goals by tomorrow try re learn how to re target the bones and add physic structures i forget their name
good luck
Its not so bad just tedious gotta re target every bone from manny, and making the physics portions can be alittle buggy depending but fun times
What sticks?
klevv fit
stated as c28 but the expo profiles are like c30 or 32, dont remember
1.4v should get them to 28
Actually kinda solid
unfortunately iirc stated to not work with core ultra hence my reason for refunding
Thats valid
with my three cheap hynix ddr5 kits i feel like somebody that bought a house in 2008
sames with muh patriot kit that i dont use because i dont own a good motherboard
where at
best buy
Trade in or something?
yeah
Nice what'd you trade
i went to update the ipad and i had to delete literally everything to do it
and they’re offering roughly market value
nice
so i’ll just do that
remove from find my
yeah i’m gonna setup empty when i bring it
My bestbuy had 2 9800X3D in stock
surprised how few but I guess they're not a primary spot
i’m just gonna go at open
Kind of tempted to buy a silent keyboard from aliexpress or a site like it today because of sales i can get a new mousepad, and also a silent mechanical keyboard both add upto about 25 to 35 pound with sales
Tbh im using a cheap keyboard st the moment until I buy my keyboard well one of customising there is a silent one I seen i like but its roughly 120 pound or more and uk layout is sold out alot of the time
i wonder how much supply will be sent out for those if it’s being obsoleted in a few months
I did free delivery and it came in an hour
i gotta go in person to do trade in anyway
Micro Center has 25+
We know the 9800X3D will not be obsoleted
AMD is fuggin selling new AM4 lol
well they’re gonna keep making them for warranty replacements and oem contracts but
i saw rumors of price increases coming so
i imagine they’ll be making far fewer of them if they’re gonna replace it with a 9850X3D and maybe a future 9700X3D
$100 it'll still be a stocked SKU
i’ll go buy my “cheap” tsmc lego
Lets face it - there will be 9850X3Ds that don't meet the spec
If its better bin launches at same price, if anything it’ll just lower the pricing of it
honestly half of why i want a 9800x3d is to just have stable clocks
inb4 $600 8 core
i hate how jumpy they are on zen 4
jawmpy
6600 sample surely
my last one was a 1.3v 6400
lisa where da 9950x3d2?
The DIMMs I have for mine are 8000 CL40 XMP, so we'll see how gear 2 is on it
8800 sample surely
i hope there’s a X970E or Z990 Gene
necromancy time
this ipad is taking forever to reset
yall see the samsung galaxy tri fold?
specifically ignore these $2000+ cell phones
A lot of people buy 2TB $2000 phones
Hi
whatever happened to the dude with 12 laptops
he was in TC1 yesterday asking about flexible USB cables
because the guy can't make decisions without a committee
me fr
12 fkn laptops?
dude went to microcenter and dropped the gdp of jorjs home country on laptops
im exaggerating but only mildly
there was at least 4
still tho
and all got returned
costing companies like thousands of dollars vs reading articles
don’t he still end up unhappy because of the ram
no idea
cool feature of having an SFF case dumping 500W of heat out the side is that my coffee cup is cookin
what a classic
people think of a lot of interesting issues
that does look abnormal
Can someone please help me in #1445424392124502168
its pre locked
I think its fine
Also wow, I lucked out?
$269 yesterday plus my $73 gift card plus they gave me a $10 gift card
but yeah saved $100
its apparently fake
it’s good they asked before clamping it down and murdering the board
it got murdered
rough
used products on Amazon is such a gamble
Can someone please help me in #1445424392124502168
oh GGs 
Intel discrete GPUs back on the menu Intel Arc discrete GPUs have reached 1% market share in the desktop add-in board market, according to the latest Jon Peddie Research (JPR) report cited by TechPowerUp. Intel had hovered around roughly half a percent since Arc “Alchemist” entered the gaming segment, so this small numerical step is […]
we’re so in
fate worse than death
for some reason they’re doing the trade ins
going to inspect it
must meet the GeekSquad standards
is a 3070ti a good upgrade from the 3060?
eh
I see no point in upgrading from a 2 gen old card, to another slightly better 2 gen old card
I'd say you're better off saving for a 40 series used/new
Or 9060 XT something
9060xt's. at least you get fsr4
same raw performance as a 3070Ti, or thereabouts
and a warranty
if it’s free then yeah obviously it’s an upgrade

@topaz veldt 
nice
nothing crazy but some basic timings
This is basically the limit of H16A on ARL afaik unless you’re mad lucky
this line is ridiculous man
What line lol
i have to wait in geek squad to trade in
and none of the old people understand what “password” means
Trade in what
Realistically what are you doing on an iPad to need more storage
i saw u hangin out with brother nepnep, did he hook u up with some tips?
Yeah he taught me how to fight the tWR and tWTR gaslighting that ARL does
Notice I have HWinfo open with Timing configurator
HWinfo shows real tWR and tWTR’s lmao
wait is ARL schizo or smth
no it’s just that those timings aren’t actually real things you can set, they’re calculated based off other timings
just not sleeps
Mac doesn't believe in sleeps so it's ok
womp womp my machines don’t get eepy
my machines work or they die
i use sleep all the time now that it works perfectly
sleep and works perfectly do not belong in the same sentence lol
its weird but both machines just work. wake normally and don't randomly wake up for seemingly no reason
come home, i hit the power button on my LG remote and my Esc key one after the othe and rig is up and running
my pc sleeps normally at stock settings
I just shut down bro
same
I hit power button, turn on C4, sit down, and wait maybe 10 seconds before I’m in windows like
I either shut down or leave it running
the agony, 10 seconds
Right
that's a lifetime
yeah see i can't do that.
its more like 30-40, then i hvae to move my windows around again .. meh. sleep solved this problem decades ago
After launch AM5, 10 seconds is nothing
bro needs to discover power toys or whatever it’s called
My applications pop up where I want them when I open them
install more software for what, just sleep
I could have sworn Guilty used PowerToys
i've used powertoys many times, but i have to force myself to take advantage of most of it so I just end up uninstalling it.
ladies and gentlemen i may have just finalized a questionable financial decision
welcome to the club
5090?
i am now the owner of 168tb of hard drives
damn
and you're thinking of fancy zones which seems like its out of 2005 with how it is to setup. no thanks
ok yeah that's pretty good
im hoping to sell a couple and keep only like 8-10
i think anything under 10$/tb is really good ngl
yeah
i think im gonna have to swap out the psu on my pc and my server tho
rm850x and rm750e
that mf should be fired asap
how dare they let some non geeksquad member reach into a PC
my best bin Ryzen IMC came from Best Buy so
ok so stay away from Best Buy
my stock voltage 2000+ FCLK 5600x came from BB
wild
came out to $279 with tax for a 9800x3d
wtf
👍
😉
I only use BB to buy open-box products
C4 for me, but I also bought my open box AppleTV from there
I'd be fine getting a tv or phone from best buy
I prefer Costco but best buy carries so many more TVs
I had to go to 2 Best Buy’s and sweet talk the manager to get them to price match microcenter for the 14900k lol
And Costco stopped doing phones
open box <48" TVs at BB seem to be mostly just returned items
btw best buy should not be price matching during black friday deals, if you got a price match that technically wasnt allowed
cause I can get them shipped
This was months ago
I got price matched to Walmart
yeah we gonna have to take em out. rip em in half
corporate said so
idk it like didnt delete my message on my end but it did DM me
anyways I was malding about this
@shell void @pure garnet @merry stirrup
Yes, throw it away and tell me the coordinates
ram
530k^2
No it would be 530kk
Actually with math just 530k
rx480 on the bench rn
think it would be k^2
A real Linus Torvalds
now i just need fedex to bring my board
rip
Dang only 15GB used
@topaz veldt OLED looks so good, this is stunning.
OLED is so expensive too, its stunning
you can get an oled monitor for less than 32gb of ram
nah
I bought a 5090 before I picked this up, I did that shit way out of order
hey @topaz veldt 4 hours of sleep is plenty right
I get 4h of sleep daily and i need to get up at 5am for school
Should be enough
@shell void I blame you for not telling me how good this is. 😂 DP2.1 full bandwidth. No hitches, black has never looked so good.
thats about what i slept on the cruise every night
PAC WASNT ON OLED?
the beds were trash
low bar
that was the joke yeah
did someone just post a tidal rewind
aint none of us care about the music app 4 people use
I know. Shame me, I was stubborn
What’d ya get?
Ah nice
since when did fortnite become that demanding
shader compilation goes brr
You can see exactly where I had fun laying things out, and then got annoyed with hotfixes
so you can cuss them out
all i know is jason better lock in
I never know how to pronounce em anyway
jason
derulo
i need my msi plush from a holiday from a week ago
Jason is nuts
ive been preaching the gospel in here for years u fricker 
michael the 6600 sample is on my desk rn
jason statham is delivering your package
youre so totally gonna get a sugi0lover sample
6600 geardown disabled and 2233fclk
inb4 6200 max
bro if it's that bad its going back
and it needs 1.3vSOC to do it
im gonna just slap a 6400 config at it first try
and hope that it does karhu for a few hours
I just had an 11.5hr error so
how far into the test does it just become “a matter of time” though
i thought bz said at some point everything will error
maybe it’s like a week or two into the test idk
not in <12 hours
I consider 12-16 hours Karhu daily stable
Assuming y-cruncher also doesn’t error
I went back to auto subtimings with the primaries I wanted as a sanity check
I know, that’s the joke. But seriously, the BF monitor deals were just too good to pass up.
And I had a red line down the right side of my IPS, it had to go
I entered a raffle contest and won a new motherboard better than mine the 9800 cpu and also 2x32gb of ram
Entered it for the ram abd motherboard I payed 5 pound for about 6 tickets and I won
I’ll admit when I was wrong. I was so wrong. Glossy OLED is fucking insane.
it's the only way to go



I'm building a new PC for gambling. What is a good CPU and GPU for this?
What motherboard should I get?
And what SSD and ram should I get
It’s like you’re viewing the image through a window
Zen 5 Threadripper and GTX 460
whole new world
and monitor gloss is not the same as C4 gloss
true
Too slow
I need top tier gambling components
gtx 480
My ram tune errored 11.5hrs in
so you're happy i take it
now you can turn on HDR, run the HDR Calibration tool from the store and join in on the madness
hdr 24/7
speaking of @topaz veldt, in the NVApp, enable RTX HDR just for Arc Raiders if you wanna try it since it doesn't support native HDR
it is now thankfully
on the new glossy 4th gen woled monitors
very true
LG C2 42 owners watching the monitor market take four years to catch up
man I wonder who that could be?
guilty as charged
i've said this, but in the end i'm actually glad I got a TV rather than a first gen monitor
so what made this guy popular? I never watched him
he is peanut
being absolutely addictingly hilarious. i can't really explain further
idk I can't imagine going back from 42" C series tbh
oh is that it lmao. so I assume his face makes him funny
My next upgrade is 5k240 if it ever decides to exist in a 42” 16:9 format
i’m very curious to see what upgrades the 42” C6 will bring
the face, the mannerisms, the comedic timing, the voice
i assume 165Hz but not tandem woled yet unfortunately
+4 nits peak brightness
Xd
yeah, makes sense lookin at that gif, good for him :)
lmao this guy gets it
it's so worth it we have to get Jorj to upgrade to it
my c4 will be garbage in comparison
he is never gonna get it
his C5 is SO MUCH better than everything else guys
his C5 destroys my G5 sadly
upscaling
which you would almost never use when it's a monitor (the TV's upscaling)
jorj probably watches most of his shows on dvd still
unless he got it from google images, i've seen a picture of a C5 box at his house
wasn't posted here
i didn't look further into it
probably his moms
oh, ok yeah
he can't use it till christmas
I’m saving it for my birthday
ah ok
yeah getting a mount for a C5 would be $$$
its actually not that bad
desk mount I was thinking of
jesus, just under 2 hours on a vidya call with Fedex.
And there's another one scheduled for Friday. >.<
if the C4 was touchscreen I would be on reels all the time
would actually be peak
i hate this vm man
how many cores that VM got?
Vertical idk about that
THAT'S WHY JESUS FUCK
its gamechanging
Why
all you need
single core and single thread 😭
Windows in 2025 requires more than one core if you want it to do anything
i have to open heavy software too
it's quite the joy to sit here and wait actual minutes for e3 to load
We were shutting down a HyperV server to add RAM. NP.
We went to shutdown one VM that had one core:
The fucker took nearly 2 hours to turn off
why was it given such shit specs
I didn't set it up. I gave it 4 on reboot, and suddenly it started working right
yeah bc you aint curb stomping the single thread given to it XD
How much is amd's marketshare these days? Iv been hearing 5% ish
our work machines are now (at default) 13400's.
5% sounds about right from what i've heard
like intel, single digits
yeah that's solid
6 P-Cores is more than enough for any normal office work.
And the e-cores are there for whatever giggles
its in the article you linked an image of
my aunt is suffering from her work laptop being on like some 1st gen i5 on w11
like holy booting that thing up takes patience
life is good
is it still a hdd?
probs i didnt fully check
I mean, going from a HDD to a SSD would make that laptop feel like you upgraded it 5 generations
it was ridiculously slow… just being in windows ate like 70% of the CPU
Think AM5 boot times were bad? “Well back in my day-“ type shit
I knew it was good, I couldn’t have predicted that it would be this good though.
🔥
enjoy ur new oled
oh did you see amd is price hiking cpus later today
INTL to the MOON!
gotta get that 9800X3D asap
its on my desk bro
ok good
we love market manipulation 🤑
What am I gonna do on a vertical screen
messaging apps
web searching
side monitor, jorj. takes up less space horizontally and good for discord / monitoring tools
YT shorts
realer than c5
Jeez the difference is crazy.
i curse you with a mac bin
back when I was on a PC (IDR the CPU) with a HDD
And I swapped to a SATA SSD... SATA 2? Maybe 3? IDR.
Boot went from 2+ Minutes to desktop
To 20-something seconds
mac bin! mac bin! mac bin!
its going back if it sucks
iirc I opened my 9800x3d box like shit
mac bin?
mac bin! mac bin! mac bin!
how has no one made this joke before
side note, that thing is crazy cool inside, especially the dual GPU model
the case equivalent of the mac bin, literally and metaphorically
it was ridiculously cool engineering, but also holy hell did apple just say "Fuck the consumer"
Ram costing more than cpus was something I never expected to see
Interesting
NVME's are also starting to climb and climb.
Shitty no-name 1TB NVME drives are now 80+ on PCPP and climbing
They might pull a vice versa and start pairing ram with cpus now lol
I'ma put money on 1TB Drives going up to 140$ starting price
this is one entire crisis aside from like… PSUs and motherboards
Mine went up 250ish since March
That’s when I was building
I can do worse lol
secondary vertical monitor inspiration
What’s so dumb is you can sell them and not even have enough to buy an equivalent back because it’s going so fast
arrow lake refresh and 9850x3d releases will be in a shit spot bcs of ram
Do cpus have memory chips too?
them ram manufacturers expect it to be till like…. 2027 2028
Not why it’ll go to shit I know. But I’m just wondering
I bought 3 kits of RAM For work on 9/29/25. 89 bucks for 32GB Kits
Now it's 400 bucks. That's a 330% Price increase.
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH REALITY
I'm sorry, but your terrible LLM that will never be AGI is not worth raising the prices of consumer components like this
Shout out to open ai
Now my cost on this is down 500+
their LLMs are being wasted on people using compute power to generate absolute shitposts, deepfakes, scams instead of actual contribution
Probably way more that 500. It’s a 5090 build
fucking amen, joel
Are psu prices expected to skyrocket anytime soon? Might have to sidegrade to a <=140mm to allow a bigger gpu, as mines 160mm rn sooner than expected
My fidelity portfolio has been prepared
Mr gibli will have the final laugh
Idk if I see psu prices being effected
But hey. It’s mask off these days so idk
ruh roh i need more storage too
Smells fishy
More space on horizontal though so wym
lol i watched the new ltt video and the first thing i hear is "the difference in price between 16gb and 32gb isn't that big"
?
I wonder at what price point the 9070xt is worth getting over the 5070ti
More space to fit things on like tabs and shi
Well it’s the same as horizontal but I’d rather side to side
People would say 50$ 💔 like hell nah
Feeling grateful for my 64gb of ram 💔
idk that’s tough because i’d go down to a 5070 before i buy anything radeon
and 5070 is occasionally $480
The price difference between anything better than the 5070 💔
i don’t think there’s any price that i would buy a radeon gpu at right now because i value my sanity more than a few hundred dollars
as someone who only plays old games and cares about the raster perf, the 9070xt would have to be under $650 and a quailty aib model
if you gave me a free 9070XT then i’d sell it and buy a 5070
not the cheap dual fan thing
so worth it
who is jason
what’s jason bringing you
oh fedex
my fedex driver with the b850 mlg
mobo
mlg rofl
But 9070xt better 🥺
But the extra 200$ is pretty cool too
20% more powerful in raster sure but everything else is worse
literally everything else
Did the amd glaze stop now that its been 9 months
I play games with raster… so I’m gonna be the opposite to Michael
i figured the waifu board was funnier than the edge
I can’t wait for raytracing to become the standard and games to actually remove it tbh
Sort the competitive games from the proper competitive games that one will
My gpu doesn't support raytracing 🔥
McDonald’s?
Hes saying to get a job
I thought mc hire was McDonald’s careers
Jobless setup
all your budget went into cpu and mobo huh
based
The storage too
bro it's an asrock the board was probably $99 on clearance
No thats a good one
Bro dont know about taichis

I like to play the mainstream aaa slop too 🥀

Big news for the unemployed

Nuh uh
akn the lady behind me in the geek squad line deadass forgot her phone password
she had an iphone 6 in 2025
is anyone here specifically good with laptop issues, specifically asus?
kinda based ngl, not the forgetting password part
Tbh none of my phones have lasted that long without breaking
They were shitty samsung a series phones anyways
They lasted like 2 years each 🥀
Air phone.... 
Crazy how people thought old phones were big 💔
yippee
Nixxes brought the Helldivers PC install size down from 154GB to 23GB
thats just cool
what
yeah it's in beta rn
helldivers 2??
they removed all the duplicate assets
yeah
wtf
By completely de-duplicating our data, we were able to reduce the PC installation size from ~154GB to ~23GB, for a total saving of ~131GB (~85%).
they bloated the pc version for hard drive users and now took it out
holy shit wow
100+ gigs of redundancy is wild
Me when I lie
Nothing important in there is crazy
Nixxes, also the goat of PC ports
They aint
Makes sense ig
Pov submitting a text file too large for the professor to download and grade 
The lenovo laptop i had 6 years ago was better than my current pc 😔
