It keeps doing this is that bad
Would you rather me use those?
Yes, a piss filter (Mexico filter) lookin image but with how it looks without the eminence amount of cheeto color
Bruh
I got pretty close with what the image way lmao
Hank
Im sorry bro your edit gives me a headache way too much blue
what
Lmao, you're all orange 
I cant tell what its doing. Whats wrong?
Its turning off and on for like 5 seconds on then off
I'd take that over a head ache
@fringe vigil do you like mexican food
What is it doing
thats not normal
I dont see how its giving a headache
Would it happen if the cables r in wrong or smth
Id get a migraine looking at pure orange all day tho
Try flipping the power off on the PSU and waiting about 10 minutes, then turn it on and try to boot again
Is it updating?
Im sensitive to blue light lol
Lol
Thats a me problem ig
thank you
what are your pc SPECS
Mine? I already said
This is mine
.
OK
I removed my old nhd-14
Too bulky for maintenance
redux is just old fans being resold for hella dollars though
sure but water coolers can cause other maintenance headaches
I got them like 6 years ago
Iv not had issues tbh
im not saying you were a fool for buying them but i wouldn't call them based
no its not, they're at least usually cheaper
Na ur good
Replacing an aio takes longer than an aircooler in 99.9% of scenarios
you'd be better off buying a p12 pro 5 pack for $25 if you're value chasing so the redux line just doesn't make a lot of sense anymore
swapping an aio doesnt' really take long at all
even my 360mm is only ~14 screws to pull out? and that's if im good and put all of them in
heavily depends, same can go for air coolers tho
Then whatcha think of my ippc industrial noctua fans 😛
I'm honestly almost sorry for you
see those are funny though
For the aio itself, yeah but im talking about for like the gpu or ram
You dont run that thing close to you right?
i might pickup like 3 of the 3000rpm ones for my oc stuff
Why, they are dope af
fair
they're great fans just loud
Its for my compute server tbh
fair
It cools a 3090 and 3060 12gig
thats the only place they should be used
No, its a compute server and its being used for my senior project for uni
I also use it for ai
ya what you running on it
The os is just win 10 for compatibility for the project
the 36gb vram is nice for that I imagine
Yeah
Okay but what is it actually computing? only ai?
pro series my beloved
Its hosting everything for the project
this thing is also goated
Thats its only job rn
That looks so cursed
Just storage?
No, i have a nas for that
So whats the project then?
We are doing a d&d character creation sheet
Its better to have an over-speced system vs an under speced one. Plus i was using it for ai before, it just changed jobs for now
Ah okay fair
We was originally gonna add ai but decided against it
I have a nas I built that I edit off of and store things on, nothing else stays around permanently lol
So like... there will be no 290k at all @shell void ?
good choice
I waited 10 minutes with psu off
This is my nas
Still turning off an on @analog plover
Cable management is awful bc of the case
Reset cmos
Okay well its gonna hard to help you from probably a few thousand miles away but I can try
This is my NAS
Lmao
I recommend watching a video on it
Unlikely but possible
Not yours
Its an easy thing to mark off
🤔
Very true
Always start with the 2 second things - my boss
We lack info so im just trying some ideas lmao
Yep!
Im going to bed ima do this tmmr
Bruh
facts if I was there I could probably get it figured out in like 5 mins
good luck you got this
Same tbh, its prob psu related
This is js pissing me off
PCs aren't as complicated as they seem
Or motherboard
Its a am4 socket with an am4 connecting so idk
Its likely not even broken hardware but something done midly improperly
Reading is difficult
Yeah
Nah jsp its understanding what yall are saying I only know what a gpu cpu is thats it
Its amazing we can interpret little scribbles
So when yall say stuff i have no idea what you guys are talking about
Might be good to watch some videos from reputable sources
I tried
We’re doing our best, helping over discord is difficult
Yeah ik yall are doing alot
I was able to take it out and put one in its just now its turning on and off every 5 to 10 seconds
Take out the cooler?
Could it be psu cables whatever those are lol just tried searching it yp
I took it out yes and replaced it
Your PC worked fine before?
Yea
Do you think it could be the power supply?
Like its not putting out enough power
i have a question i just got a new boot drive and my key did not transfer and idk what to do
i have a key on my old drive but with my new one it does not work
What type of license did you have before? Retail or OEM? And did you only change the boot drive, or have you essentially built a new PC / moved the drive into a new PC?
Maybe
If it worked before then thats not an issue
Bruh if your PC was here I could hook it up to my PSU tester
You only changed the cooler tho
Maybe reseat the CPU
Amd ryzen 2600 I think
I should hook my SF850 to a 5070Ti and a 5090
God dam
5090 is my whole pc price
Saying things for the sake of it lol
X 3
5090 is a big dog
I need a ATX board to do so
Oh yeah very possible
Just change the boot oem
chuck the old chip back in and update ur bios
nah it happens to the best of us
you'll get faster
You might be able to re-use the same OEM key if you're installing on hardware that Windows believes is the same as when it was activated the first time. Otherwise, time to buy a Retail key and then never ever need to buy another key every again, since Retail keys can be moved between computers as much as you like.
or the wierd 2 $/€ key from a random website
I did the troubleshoot thing and it said to install home
They are oem keys
why not
what's the worst that could happen-
until Microsoft decides you used it too many times 🙂
Even then, I continue using the key. Just because a company's activation systems have decided I "shouldn't be allowed to activate" doesn't mean I don't continue using the license as it was legally sold to me. 😉
also for example i have one OEM key not used as OEM where Microsoft itself forgot this thing existed 😄
i could still type my window 7 key from memory after all these years
for those who never bought Windows 8
so they had a website where you could register your name and email, and that made the W8 OEM license a full transferable license. Website doesn't even exist anymore, neither do the special licence terms on that website
If you had a 7 windows key and upgraded to 10 then 11 free, as your right was.. you get 2 free moves iirc then it blocks it
Only found this out when I changed hardware recently. Fortunately, had a second key to activate on my MS account
The retail one got blocked on 3rd attempt. Oddly, the OEM key I had from a laptop was allowed to be used which I didn’t think was the case
To do what?
two cards
Oh
Yeah fair enough
$300 3080 > 5090
what
Idk I just got my wife a 3080 for her first pc and im hyped to finish the build when all the parts finish taking their sweet ass time in the mail
ok
3080 > 5090
On a real note idk if I want to keep this strix z370 with a 8700k paired with it
I want a better cpu and mobo combo but she wanted all white and its not easy finding a decent white mobo with ddr4 for some reason
could you speak louder I cant hear you down there
I have a 5070ti
This is about the wifes first pc mr ImBetterThanYou
I also have a 5070Ti
I didnt know you were aware
❤️
But like I got a brand new kit of 32gb teamgroup ddr4 and this 3080 and I’m not happy pairing it with a 8700k
Does that not sound a little backwards
Go the extra 1 mile and get your wife at least a LGA 1700 or AM4 platform
I was looking at am4 for the cost to performance but she specifically wanted an all white build, and it doesn’t seem like theres a half decent white mobo for the money
Lga 1700 with ddr4 + white mobo also seems next to impossible
Doesnt even have to be all white, but hoping for at least white heat syncs
you could potentially look at china mobo being Jingyue B760i
This is what I have rn waiting for the rest in the mail this week
Pure white mobos are like- Not it till AM5 and LGA 1851
like icl all the white am4 and lga 1700 boards suck at aesthetics
Yeah I wasnt being THAT picky about it, I was just hoping for like white or silver heat syncs at least in ATX
you’d be better off choosing a black mobo and using every other part as white
honestly an 8700k keeps up with most of am4
I realized that, I just keep looking in hopes for something
I even thought about just swapping for the 9900k but people ask stupid money for those still
am4 isnt worth it till like a 5700x currently tbh
even then hardly worth
5600 doesnt have enough cores nor horsepower
all the non x3d am4 chips are in a miata cup
Tbh she doesnt need either of these for the stuff she plays, just wanted it to be better balanced
@pure garnet btw the idiot earlier dm’d me and got sent to message requests
He was already blocked on top
8700k will do more than enough, 3080 is overkill
the 12 yo guy
Lol I had the idea of going all white on my next build but the idea of tossing it on a small server rack is the current idea I have at the moment.
Its unfortunate there isnt a pure white dual dimm board, but whatever i dont look at the board but rather the GPU and case
I got this 32gb ddr4 kit for $60 brand new a few days ago tho. Happy about that
Referring to AM5 btw*
z890 apex…
z890 tachyon
x870 tachyon ice
Need reverse bottoms
And front reverse
Also, fucking lance holding onto P16 while I try to squeeze past him and lewis.
i cant get a tachyon ice locally and thats a very pathetic IO for almost apex price from amazon
The problem im having, idec about spending extra on a mobo + cpu, but finding them having almost any white while supporting ddr4 hurts
Like I would gladly get her a 12700k or something if I could find a white atx board that supports ddr4
7 USB A and 3 USBC is pretty usable unlike the tachyon’s 6+1
gigglebutt is like the stingiest when it comes to IO imo
i have a pure white motherboard which you can't see 😄
well, mostly white
Is it before either of the generations he mentioned
Ok so its also not pure white
anyway, the point is that once you add a cooler and GPU to it, you can't see any of the board anyway
(to be fair, i forgot the connectors weren't white, see the comment above about not seeing the board if you put stuff on it)
What am I looking at
Looks mATX and idk if I trust it
X99 mATX motherboard (Machinist E5-K9, there are various versions)
it's ok for the price, it is one of the better china boards 😄
at least it is not ASUS X99 Deluxe M.2 mounting system 😄
Its also way before either generations he mentioned
might be the solution for 9100 pros
passive cooling
Great cooling for that ssd
Oh my god
good morning vietnam
Anybody knows a way to find a SIGNED driver for an Intel HD 520 graphics card for Windows 7 x64? I'm making a retro computer for my niece and Windows complains it's not signed. How come Intel didn't sign this driver?
I'm been struggling with this laptop, it's a Lenovo Yoga 510 14ISK, Edge WebView 2 won't install, so no DriverCloud, even downloading a browser from the old IE6 was rough, and the USB ports had no driver after installation...
they still had it on X299
I don't see it, these look like normal slots with Heatsinks
that is the vertical m.2 slot
Oh.
I did not see it somehow
So it has two normal NVMe ports, with a horrible, disgusting amalgamation on the side?
Wait a minute
a m.2 slot???
yes. like this #tech-chat-2 message
I've never seen a slot like this, so strange
you can buy PCI-e x1 to M.2 adapters which are worse
i fw this
pc diving board
DIMM.2 is still the weirdest "standard"
i learned that my evc 2 can do feeback mods on gpus instead of me having to use a pot
3d defender board
its got a freaking pci slot
Took 30 seconds of google https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18799/intel-graphics-driver-for-windows-15-45.html
@merry stirrup I got 8600 booted on raptor last night, pretty good for ambient
I will probably have to bench 8400 though
8 stable? you should do that
why 8K
daily stable doesn’t exist on z790
you dont exist
I’m purely finding limits for gskill comp lol
6Ghz P cores 5.2Ghz Ring was pretty easy to get going
not bad at all
well, in XTU. If I set the same settings in bios my VIDs are 100mv higher. Will have to figure that one out…
I should never have sold my 14900k
big true
Jufus unfriended me
pretty ass cable management till i get my custom cables
copper heatsink looks nice
Better than mine
Where is the gpu at? Is it an apu build or is the gpu on the other side?
@merry stirrup talked a guy with a p1000 down to $30 on fbm, gonna get it this afternoon
Prob Schrank
other side
Yeah I ordered custom ones that match just perfectly for the case
Literally all the cables in my A3 are either shoved behind the AIO, behind the small space behind the PSU, or under the PSU. The A3 has ONE actual cable guide for the CPU EPS cables and that’s it lmao
your mpower build is much cleaner than mine
ugh one cable is hitting the fan
my gravity mounted 360mm aio makes for quite the cable circus
Damn USPS delivers to me at 8:45am on Saturdays
his stuff probably isn’t coming today it didn’t get to his post office yet
I could have grabbed it and hand delivered it to you faster than Mr USPS man
i quite literally have no space to manage
It wouldnt be as big of a problem if I didnt have SATA cables in the way, complicating the procesd
heat is now more manageable with the fans, but silent profile isnt gonna cut it for pushing speed
I went for the side mount
icl that looks cursed
like me a good side mount

blehhh
fuck you meannn
I put back my old cpu so.i can download the bios settings for new cpu but now the pc is saying this bit locker recovery
prime still here
Yea
Yea
But i forgot to download smth so I put back old cpu and now its saying bitlocker recovery
I was going to use the side mount for a ram fan but it wasn’t close enough to the sticks and they got cooked by my 5090 lol. So I moved the fan on the gpu closer to the sticks.
I go all exhaust on my A3
besides ram obv
did u get a decent config on the raptor last night macintosh?
Preliminary testing, got 8600 booted but it’s unhappy, probably can bench 8400
fiya
I hope you know the password
Idont
blowing up the hynix afr on this gpu
MORE
if u ain’t redlining you ain’t headlinin
literally the max the voltage controller can give
i tried 1.75 but it wouldnt change so yeah just stuck at 1.7
scales pretty good tho
out of an HD 7950 is diabolical
365w
does your vrm controller have a "gamer mode"?
no :(
i really dont know if this is accurate thats a lot of power for one of these cards
had a weird situation earlier
playing rdr2, as you do.
I happened to lean back and caught a glimpse of my postcode readout displaying 85c
uh, ok 30% or so usage in game. weird. closed the game and popped open hwinfo. ~40W package power and usaged dropped to idle. Tctl/Tdie still 83-85c
but the cores themselves were normal for idle conditions
hmm
I rebooted out of pure confusion and we're back to normal
anomalous perhaps
yeah, it had to be
i guess 40W and 85c on one core isnt impossible
yeah each core was in the high 20's/low 30's, it was only the Tctl/Tdie reading that was sitting in the mid 80's
all back to normal though after a reboot. very weird
just gotta boot RDR2 back up and see if it happens again after a while
yeah I just got back home after picking up lunch, going to jump back in in a bit
I found a potential damaged resistor on the z370 board
time to break out the iron
I don't have the skills for something this small
imagine jay but worse
how small is it
like if it's just one resistor I think I could do it
The larger one to the left of the flat boy with a marking on top
I wiggled it back into place
It is near the front panel connector for what that's worth
well thats a capacitor
but if your iron is high enough wattage and youre not stupid it shouldnt be hard
thats definitely what i typed earlier
I am not convinced this is the cause of the boot issues
Hi
hi jorj
dimm
@merry stirrup good idea or bad idea
I short the 24pin to force power on then plug it into the board
terrible idea
:(
i think i have one of the bad 7950s
which is disappointing
doesnt want to do 1150 core i dont think
which at 1.4 volts is kinda ridiculous idk
cast it into the fire! Destroy it!
1.4vcore on a gpu is bananas
scary
its only 12v what can actually blow up
but apparently gcn just loved voltage so idk
stock is 1031 for some reason but i’ve seen other cards as high as 1250
not worth potentially
killing every other part attached
flops what do we think about z790 8400 bench
yeah i knew older amd gpus ran at high voltage but not that high
im used to modern gpus being 1.1v or less
scaling on blackwell falls off a cliff after 0.95v
i hit 10K hours on my LG A2 48 and it prompted a one hour clean cycle, and now it looks super clean again 
polaris is stock 1.15
i hate amd
sounds really good
also this is the first gpu ive evc'ed successfully
i also had to do it on kinda hard mode cause the header wasnt labeled
had to probe a buncha things to figure out what was the i2c header
did real ocer things
heck yeah
now youre ready to explode your 5070Ti
what's your cooling plan for that?
stock is ok so far but ill probably just aio it
buy a 5090 cooler like that other dude
a random pi pico kit made my life way eassier
it had a JST header for me to use on the gpu
so i didnt have to solder wires straight to it
but unfortunately this card doesnt need to be evc'ed lol
at least not until im smart enough myself to begin to max it out
but i dont gpu oc really anymore so slowly
da 5070ti?
nah the 7950 LOL
the 7950 gets insanely broad voltage control
i can control even the memory voltage on it
just thru afterburner
i can only push core to 1.3v but i get cooling limited much before that so
(or vbios idk)
gcn is a mystery to me
got bored while watching @tall igloo's videos and just decided to mod a card
I need to volt mod my GTX460 SOC
happens to me sometimes
Gn fy
Lol floppa looks like my agreed part time contract is being transferred to the new company that just bought out the one I’m with currently 
Remote users are gonna be fucked with this merger aka mass termination
This is a new level of harsh
Interesting. This means that submitting copyright notices containing the links to the pirated content that a provider should take down is also, in and of itself, a copyright violation, and thus the legal teams who submit the claims also must be put in jail. 
@pure garnet where my gpu at :(
sobbing
only if reporting counts as sharing
7 years over entertainment??
I didn't write it, don't ask me
but I imagine the "up to" does a lot of heavy lifting
https://www.reddit.com/r/ZephyrusG14/comments/ibuohs/comprehensive_loadlibrary_failed_with_error_87/
i did that stuff ?
@indigo walrus should i just ddu and reinstall the old school way ?
working now that deleted amd adrlien
man I slept for like 6 hours today

pretty cool
and you wanna know why it was a 50% perf increase
because i got a fucking 50% core overclock
(and idk like 30% on memory but it did jack shit for firestrike i wont lie)
a cool little card
Totally - between OC and xfire/sli
yous are all too young but we could stretch our GPUs for like 2-3 release and still compete because of massive OC potential
or drop in a second for SLI
i mean i had a 7970 but i was stupid
(it was a 280x)
but still i didnt get much outta it
likes to hit ocp tho when i power modded it even with it disabled in the evc so idk
so couldnt get any over 50%
ocp on the card not the psu*
r9 280x is in fact way different
r9 290 is gcn 2, which could behave the same, but idk
280x is gcn 1, cause its just a 7970
7950 is a 280
Amazon, I'm still waiting for that TitanRig order to arrive 
i would imagine that since its gcn tho that it just scales
i mean if polaris scales to 1.35 i would imagine gcn 2 scales past that
wait i may still own one of those
if i do i have 0 clue where it is though
WHAT
but i bought an xfx r9 280x as a gpu for the 2700k when i first built it
ooh those ones are nice
either i don’t own it or it’s sitting somewhere under my bed
checked all the usual spots and 0 dice
I'm revising my network while I'm replacing my opnsense machine. Here's kinda where I'm at now. Will I have issues with igc3 and 4 being on the same bridge, and being a parent of vlan 3? I'm open to any suggestions, hate, or comments
igc0 -> WAN
igc1 -> Main PC (default VLAN)
igc2 -> 2nd PC (default VLAN)
igc3 -> Proxmox (VLAN 1 and 3)
igc4 -> Network switch (VLAN 1-4)
igc5 (Empty) (Default VLAN)
bridge0 -> igc1-5
VLAN02 parent igc4
VLAN03 parent igc4
VLAN04 parent igc4
VLAN003 parent igc3
DHCP and IP assignments on
bridge0
VLAN02
VLAN03
VLAN04
It's officially been 13 years since I freed myself from spinning rust on my desktops.
This was a FB Memory from 2013
Ah really i ser
Welp worth a try haha
You go, jorj
lol floppa the guy i just bought this p1000 off of just said his work’s pcs were running 4 each quad sli
that’s crazy
wonder what he does
This is a very strange setup
I would avoid bridging all together, makes no real sense
I'd reconfigure to have a WAN interface and a LAN interface, carry all VLANs over the LAN interface to a swtichport trunking all VLANs
https://tieba.baidu.com/p/10468567413#/
Titanload cable hm
I think I'm adjusting a bit. I honestly am not entirely sure what I am doing, I just want to separate stuff that I dont entirely trust from my homelab. I would probably just do a WAN and a LAN to a switch, but this is the hand-me-down 10G equipment I have, so I have to find a way to make it work if I want 10G. This is what I'm at now
VLAN 10 Office Devices
VLAN 20 Wifi
VLAN 30 Guest Wifi
VLAN 40 Guest Devices
igc0 -> WAN
igc1 -> Main PC (VLAN 10)
igc2 -> 2nd PC (VLAN 10)
igc3 -> Proxmox (VLAN 10 and 30)
igc4 -> Network switch (VLAN 10, 20, 30, 40)
igc5 (Empty) (VLAN 10)
But I'm not entirely sure how to set it up in opnsense. Not sure what parent to give each vlan, what if anything needs bridged, or what interface to give IPs and run DHCP on. Do you have any other thoughts or advice?

do you have a managed switch?
just make a trunk and use router on a stick config
using opnsense as a switch is suboptimal
You are using it as.a switch - forget plugging devices into it. It should have a WAN interface and a LAN interface. LAN interface tagged for VLANs 10 20 30 40 and then ports on a switch setup for that
9950X3D is the only play

Silicone cover for me ol oculus rift s
I got lucky, bought a server listed as no CPUs had dual Xeon silvers under the heatsink granted I already bought Xeon Golds as an upgrade but still a nice find lol

Prob 4114s? Literally can't get rid of them so now you can throw them out lol
4110's so 8 core. But yeah time to put them in the drawer with the rest of my spare parts and never use them agian
Still better than my 6 core IvyBridge CPUs but, was able to pick up Gold 6130s for cheap and realistically the 4110s would have been fine but I wanted more CPU for future projects
@merry stirrup amazon just recommended this case to me
time to do cable management
I know that it's dumb, but I really dig the tron vibes of the fans
killer piece of VR history

I don’t know if the 9950x3d is better than the 9800x3d.
I have to tweak so many settings in order to get the 9950 to work properly in games…
I’m going to put back in the 9800 and see how my Computer behaves.
The 9950 drops frames more than the 9800.
single ccd is for sure less effort
@shell void you’re gonna call me an ewaste merchant but this is the result of upgrading from a p620 to a p1000 on the 4790k sff dell tower lmao
both of those are usable for transocode at most, and being pcie to displayport adapters
and playing red dead in bed on a crappy tv
those are higher framerates than i wouldve guessed you could get out of those cards
@edgy laurel the 9950x3d sucks compared to the 9800x3d when gaming. honestly. i swapped it back and i'm getting consistent frames when before i would have stutters and drops. it's so much better man
i appreciate your assistance with my earlier questions
did you have the chipset drivers installed, and were you using the balanced windows power plan?

sure, i was getting similar frames and even exceeded the 9800x3d at times...
update: Borderlands 4 still runs like shit on the fastest pc you can build
however, that was mainly for a split second. when dealing with a lot of stuff at once, the 9950x3d just simply dropped my frames like a rock compared to the 9800x3d.
earlier i was playing overwatch. in the middle of a fight i dropped 60 frames at the start of a match when we first start. never had that happen with the 9800x3d.
in helldivers, with the 9950, my frames drop to 80 when i call in airstrikes... the 9800 stays at a consistent 130+ frames
idk if i just got a bad cpu or something
i'm returning that 700 cpu and getting my money back
just play at 720p on your $4000 PC 
99.9% certain both CPU's are/were fine and you have something else going on.
system/config related
i'm not going to deny the possibility. it could be anything. i'm just pulling my hair out because the moment i put the 9800 back in my games start acting great again
maybe a fresh install for the 9950 was the way to go, i'm not sure
RTX Pro 6000 and ryzen 7 9850x3d ?
basically
Could someone with any knowledge or experience on monitors help me out in #peripherals 😌 🙏
I got a 4790k with a 1080 and that thing cooks as long as the gpu is good the cpu holds up decent
its not the worse
i got 4790k with gtx 970 sadly my ram is kind of slow at 1200mhz
if i got a 9950x3d i'd do the cope thing and just drop the freq ccd clocks down so windows would auto park it
9950x3d is pure cope
i mean not really it's just a niche thing
if i was still compiling large stuff like i was 2 semesters ago i'd have benefitted from the cache ccd for gaming + 16 core for work
same
graphically challenged is the one who suggested that to me, he said it worked great for his 7950x3d
Get more money
?
why will that help my ram thats kind of ass for Overclocking
wait did you call the 9950x3d cope while you're on haswell
So that you don't have prehistoric hardware anymore
that's a really funny bit
it runs every thing i do just fine
Go from ass to not ass
@shell void what do you think of this case amazon reccomended me to buy
with photos
ok i gses i will get 5090 and cheapest k sku fully enabled cache 8P core then
honestly i kinda like that idea
it's a psu basement flipped sideways and then they have the floating look
it would be even cooler if there was a separated top portion for your aio radiator, i think there's a different case that does that
How about a 5600x and 3060
Oh they corsaired the motherboard tray
at this point make the motherboard tray magnesium and only over the motherboard standoffs
My dinner was beer and yogurt
#winning
i had some shredded cheese
the crappy tv i hung in my room was deliberately 1366x768 so i could get higher framerates so it works out 😂
got it for 20 bucks from a thrift shop
768p is criminal
Now I want rat soup
i went from an older 1080p vizio to a $170 cheap 4k tcl and its night and day
My first monitor was a 1024×768 CRT
Picking this up tomorrow for $1,650
here’s the thing tho i would rather play on a display that is natively that res than downscaled to that res
not a bad system, ddr5?
did you get your $500 back
I’ll swap the ram and keep some storage for myself
self inflicted gastrointestinal assault
PayPal is waiting for sellers response till the 15th
i was reminded today of how poorly marvel rivals runs
Speaking of health, both my physical and mental health collapsed a few days ago.... So that's nice 
my friends wanted me to play and the 9800x3d+5070ti was only doing ~120fps 1080p with lumen off
I took some Tums I'll be fiiine
well dlss performance at 4k so an internal render of 1080p
but yeah unreal engine moment
you can override without the anti cheat caring
so i’m just using the tensor model and it looks fine
I haven’t used DLSS yet at all and I’ve had my 4090 for some years now lol
the sharpness is adjustable, i’m sure there’s some image quality loss but not anything i noticed in ~1 hour of gameplay
must not be cranking up the settings in games then 
Nah 1440p almost always hits my refresh rate at max settings so it’s fine
144Hz
not in the games I play
Haven’t played with fg either
yeah the only use a 5090 would serve me is brute forcing 4k120 in xiv without using the whole power budget
oblivion did like 90fps 1440p on max settings. cyberpunk is also well below 100fps on max settings 1440p
I barely play anything intensive
I spend more time playing HOI4 than anything else
fair enough
Maybe Overwatch second most
I do still avoid DLSS whenever possible if I get decent fps (100+) without it
it's about the threshold of where it feels "smooth enough" for me
if the fps drops below that, I tune something so it would be at least 100
you are robbing that person blind on that RAM
64GB DDR5 is ~1000 euros
32 gb is 750 for ddr5 😂
i got 32GB for like free
yup
to be fair, Corsair is overpriced in this regard
other brands it's "only" 830-860 euros
you can even get Patriot 6000CL28 fore 864 euros here
even G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB 6000CL28 is less than that corsair price (1199 euros)
@wise bear nuclear options flight model is perfect with zero flaws
I would never try to take off on the ramp and fail
If I remember right Corsair is normally more expensive as it offers longer warranty than competitors
Don't forget the good RGB
Yeah DDR5 is limited lifetime across all product ranges worldwide
So as long as it’s being made, you’re getting an RMA
Although so do most others it seems with ddr5 so yeah, they just expensive 
you could’ve googled this
i bet if i RMAd my DDR5 i would get a 100% refund instead of rreplacement. Paying back 225 euros instead of replacing a kit now worth 1.2k euro... 😄
Well… it’s a strange one. Where I live, the UK, if it is RMA’d at manufacturer then they have to replace with equivalent kit (or better) or cost to buy new - so it would be today’s price they use. With a retailer, they’d have to offer the same or better also - however if they can prove they do not have any stock then they have to give the option ie. Is it okay to have gskill instead of Corsair? Before they can then refund the original price.
So it’s very hard in the UK to fiddle people out on an RMA
in EU it is "original purchase price" as you or store is pretty much cancelling the contract. Replacement or refund is a choice if they have to replace it with something else. But if there is no replacement and refund is the only option, they don't have to pay you more than what you paid for it. In most cases that is in benefit of the buyer, but this DDR5 situation it is an exception
In the UK it’s generally RMA with retailer that sold it.
i mean i refunded a 5950x 2 years after i bought it (had to disable global c-states) and got back the original 864 euros for it instead of the 450 or whatever was the cost at the time of RMA. Or RMAd a GTX580 and got back the original price for which i could easily buy a GTX680 for the returned money
Did you just insert your 9950X3D into an existing Windows install?
core parking messing up or did not set up ram is my gess
I use a 9950X3D in my main machine, a 9850X3D in a secondary, and a 9800X3D in a third - my 9950X3D is actually the fastest (OC'd, fast mem) and has no frame drop issues in any games I play.... but you really want a fresh Windows install
Having the 9800X3D installed and just dropping a 9950X3D in, a lot of your games have decided its preferences already
Like if you have an 8-core 9800X3D installed when you install Warzone, the config is setup for a number of worker threads based on the original CPU
But yeah in the games I play I have none of the issues that dude is having
In fact I am considering putting a 9950X3D in my 9850X3D system lol
What the hell do you need allat for
Computers
the real question...what does 3 PCs in a setup look like
I only know what 1 and 1/2 looks like
holy double-whammy
on the one side, it’s insane they let you do that to stay on the latest and greatest for so much less money. how does this even happen? like the goated evga upgrade program or whatever
on the other hand, ram shortage geez
Heres 2 but its nothing compared to 5nail
the fans in the bottom computer have my mind spinning in circles...almost like a fan
didn't expect that exhaust direction
uh i dont get it
Separate builds
Ugh angled fans
maybe new
but im looking at used pricing actively selling on eBay
Which is closer to $500
Yeah I just put it in. Honestly, if I’m going to swap out the cpu, it’s gonna be Zen 6 than another zen 5
I’m just done with all this crazy lol. Maybe I should have fresh installed
Gonna get my money back and save it for a meaningful upgrade
Yo
Thats fine its your money/build, but yeah I daily drive a 9950X3D and game a lot on it without issues. You have something else going on.
I worry you'll swap something in later down the road and have similar issues - really should clean wipe that bish
It's Sunday and I'm bored with PCs again
Hackintosh time
on his 0 compatible hardware i fw this
It's a nice little challenge

Overclocking claims NVIDIA has a higher-end RTX 50-series GPU in the works for Q3 2026 We received a tip from Overclocking.com claiming they have some
Did that on a Dell Mini 9 years ago
5090 ti 16gb incoming
hoopla until kopite comments on it IMO
true, just been a slow sunday so far

i have encountered a borked enough bluetooth problem with windows that i am forced to reinstall
why does this operating system exist

I removed my network card because the case doesn’t allow the gpu to be removed without removing the card above it first
reinstall, everything’s fine, bluetooth works, my controller will not connect under any circumstances and the device cannot be removed because windows just says “nope”
i cleared it from device manager, i cleared it in powershell, I DELETED THE REGISTRY ENTRY FOR IT
ITS STILL THERE
Mr beast doing big giveaways on whatnot, myte break the app xD
Dont think ive ever seen so many peeps on 1 stream
Sup
Mr beast is devil
Is there anything like just the bottom half of a handhold(ayn thor/3ds) where it's only the screen and controller connected by usbc to a phone?
Nvidia targeting the top 1% again?
one of the nicer cards
thats the 4070 ti i got with the pc
100 there and back for the pickup
Yessss my TitanRig order is finally out for delivery 
was worth it tho
I still have one of these
What a waste of a gpu
4060 strix?
4070 ti, 12900k, 2x32 5200
A bit sad it’s not 6000 but still
Good deal because of the 7TB SSD storage
@low sorrel 5 queen reactors might be a little greedy but eff em
my favorite card of ada
@topaz veldt Skatterbencher has a 122 SP 9850X3D. Seems like the SP range is super tight on these chips
lowest I’ve seen is 118 and the highest 122
DAMNIT
what board is he tuning on?
Now I have to sell this POS
the white one is very pretty
Nice - so the BIOS shiz is relevant to me. Will check it.
6 GHz manual or PBO?
PBO and ECLK
Should be able to be emulated on any board with external clock gen
I don’t think it’s meant to be a daily thing but lol
Nice shelf
doesnt eclk fck with pcie
ahw ord
@shell void im getting amdipped
ya momma
im dipping to 30fps in a game that looks like this
skill issue

First issue is dating someone playing on a 3080 Ti ew
<@&750150305383186585> the usual scam
im getting shepgoba bloons'd
30fps is the optimal pacing for that game trust
i need a 14900k
with an apex encore
test if it dips on the 265k
i gotta put that together still
WE yes WE need Xeon 676X systems with 8000MT/s MRDIMMs
no
gen 3
oh LOL
Shouldn't. The non-Plus lived on the underside of motherboard for me for a few years.
making slight progress with the 7950 today hmm yes yes
got another 1000 points in firestrike
from like 9700 points today to 10531
puts me at top 14 on the leaderboards for gpu score
wtf is that username
It’s the username of a man who has a kickass 2600k and HD 7950 combo
there’s no way people are paying 2k for 5080s now brah
what do you do to increase score after you’ve pulled the frequency slider to where it starts artifacting
do you have to start gradually increasing voltage until it blows up
just secured top 15
modern gpus are very locked down and you cant really do this
so like what’s the process look like
on an older card like this you get more voltage control but theres still eventually a limit elsewhere like cooling or power or what not
drag slider hope stable
lmao
basically it
i thought there was maybe more to it lol that’s what I did on my rx 570 back in the day
just keep dragging the slider until unigine heaven starts looking like a club at 2am
there can be more to it but for the most part thats it aside from the modding process
there will always be a limiting factor
I wish there was a quadro bios mod or something so I could oc the p1000
its still more than likely hitting power limit before hitting those limits
hmm maybe
you can verify with gpuz pretty easy
yknow what’s interesting is both the p620 and p1000 obviously are like the same card design, and the p1000 only uses 7 more watts at cap, yet the p620 has one vrm mosfet populated and the p1000 has 5 populated
i wonder how all that works
they are unsigned for Windows 7 and won't work on 64 bits without pressing F8 on each boot to start without driver signature enforcement... even then after doing that, the performance in an old game was pretty awful... i went back to windows 10 IoT LTSC 2021 which THIS SAME DRIVER is still signed for... it works much better
imagine needing signed drivers, just run spyware
even worse
still running screen completely black
made it to the next test im good
and it scored good we lit
did you see my comparison numbers between the p620 and p1000 flopper
wow
yems
best run so far
🐐 ed
im not seeing that
top 9 (score isnt validated cause no internet on the os)
i was just lookin at it lol, i could be wrong about what they are but there’s 4 solder points on the p620 that are unpopulated
those unpopulated spots make up 1 vrm phase
and from what im seeing online the p1000 doesnt have them populated either
basically all the beans (its a modded bios, +35% is like 300w lol)
don’t think this one will make it we’ll see
I used that once as an fps counter
bottom of the card not the top
Then the Steam Built In FPS Counter came by and now I just use that
i am confused then
the big squares surrounded by little black squares are the power delivery
i am parked btw
all of these solder points are populated on the p1000
one) that’s the back of the card not the bottom
and those are capacitors for filtering
Notch aren't you smart and a millionaire, why can't you do this yourself
does it make a difference
it could
somebody should try flashing the 1000 bios on the 620 just to see what would happen
can someone please help me with swaping a graphics card issue?
i think this is all its got so im going to grab the result and validate it or whatever
too cold in here anyways
are you doing 3d mark on the xoc image
#3 for graphics score rahhhhh
gotta do a hwbot run with tesselation configuration
pretty good tbh. these cards are weird and i have one of the "bad ones" so i have no chance at getting one of the #1 scores
this card has one single fan
but for some reason is also a vapor chamber design or something idk
thing is WEIRD
had a nice time maxing it out, even used a fancy os
what card?
@tall igloo you talk about doing vram timing mods on HD 79XX cards so long as they can do 1750 mem, can you point me in the right direction?
im worried
2070 super e geforce 9800 gtx
poor thing
good news
asrock work?
UHD 660 works like a charm
aw
nope
giving them the z390-p
or is it z370
doesn't matter
we've never had z170
its a joke because z170 can run 9th gen intel just fine
i would have rather given away the e3 pro gaming v5
but i have no idea if that will work with regular core cpus
also no display outputs
it’s usps we can only pray and hope
Is there anything like just the bottom half of a handhold(ayn thor/3ds) where the screen and controller is connected by usbc to a phone?
someone else posted this earlier
😭at least it’s insured
between u and the apple trade in place holding my trade in value hostage i got too much faith in the mail system right now
i’m worried cause it left portland
and portland is only a 3 hour drive away
it probably just didn’t get scanned by the post office
yeah
Eh,3 hours with no reply seems like enough time to justify asking again
Hello I was in the process of installing linux on my pc, which I just build like a month ago. Everything was going smoothly until one of the three bottom lian li fans turned off out of nowhere the other two were working fine until I shut down the pc and turned it back on now the other two are still spinning but no rgb and the middle one is still off. i have tried unplugging and plugging back in the power connection but still nothing. could it be something else or is it that the fan is completely dead and it needs replacement.
My TitanRig order finally arrived let's gooooo

Alright here's what we got:
x8 Rotary 45° Adapter
x4 Rotary 14mm offset
x2 Static 28 MF Extender
x1 Static 14 MF Extender
x1 Rotary 90° Adapter
ultra mega watercool build coming along I see lol
does anyone know if all controllers with micro-switch ABXY buttons are super short actuation like a mouse click? or is there micro switch buttons with classic membrane actuation feel
(pls don’t try to respond with google results im asking for first hand experience
any I’ve ever tried are like mouse clicks
sigh, kinda figured
I don’t think a controller with all my preferences exists
Might just have to get one with everything except TMR sticks then put in my own
I’ve never not been ok with just a regular standard Xbox controller lol
but I’m on KBM 99.99% of the time
yeah I’m usually on controller and been playing some competitive
I have a basic wired gamesir controller with hall sticks and it’s sweet but I want a wireless controller with some other features like switchable mouse-click triggers and preferably TMR sticks but I hate the micro switch ABXY
it just doesn’t feel right
Oh and needs to be Xinput
i know my pc is dusty, i opened it for the rist time in a while, and it's probably a stupid question, but is this gpu cable supposed to be like that? i had the pc assembled 5.5 years ago at a pc shop
yeah thats fine
so that connector can be like that?
yeah its a 2+6 pin
your card has a 6 pin and an 8 pin to power it
that extra connector becomes a tail on most cards
Yep I would probably only have one of them not used (90 adapter though I would use it in addition to a barb fitting for filling use)
Also my first build that will actually use a distro plate
i am being forced to watch the superb owl against my will

Get one of those beer hats, same nachos, kick back, relax, enjoy an hour of entertainment, 6 hours of adverts and 1 hour of men throwing a rugby ball the wrong way and taking each other out with the occasional kick and catch of a ball!
Oh and maybe a hot dog or 2, it does go on so long you could have breakfast, dinner, lunch and when it finished you’re thinking about supper!

Leeeeeennnnmyyyy!!!
Have y'all seen Lenny?
Lenny!
Is Lenny like Carl or something
😳
funny mission bro
i'm about to go do that mission
the game is like a simulator
so many systems to remember and think about
its like gta, you get hungry, eat food, youre tired, go sleep
simple
don't forget to brush your horse
and i don't understand these "cores"
or how to properly save
RDR2 is one of those games that I appreciate but never end up finishing lol
i always end up somehwere else when I comeback to the game
