Did lga 1851 cpus also bend?
Am I the only one who doesn't get why MSI put an LCD on an XOC GPU but also failed to solder the power connectors

Oh it's not oled?
no
Don't they have 3 lightning z versions?
LCD = more fps
but that wasn't the point
Hmmm maybe I'm mistaken by some CES coverage
they probably don't know either
lol why not
im not saying “no way” in the sense that its a bad product
im saying its a bad financial decision for him
love me some industrial grade stuff
its not a bad financial decision but its a bad USB working decision
for context i know this guys financial situation so
need z690/790 matx d4/d5
Yeah he should've bought two
is this satire 
No he should've bought both and tested to see what one is better than send me it for free
🗿
bad financials... i have a 9800X3D with nothing to put it in, and am thinking of buying another 9950X3D
cuz your making decent money
@brisk jolt isnt
bros pocket watching
My bad finantion decision of the year was buying 3 ddr4 servers, ram prices are forcing me to keep a ddr3 server in production
you don't know that
Unless you bought ram,ssds,and gpus last year
i mean obviously i cant confirm but there are signs that point me towards that statement
@gloomy vault looks at boat
what if someone makes decent money but owes like $4M in lawsuits
Move to China
Boom 4 million saved
Tax Evasion (not financial advice)
With ECC ram?
None of the ddr4 severs cam with ram, but yes all have ecc ram
maybe i should redefine my statement of "making decent money" to being able to comfortably afford item X with significant leeway 💔
everything is legal until you are caught
Laws are make-believe

How much better is a ryzen 7600 than a i5 7500
one of them is better
Huh
At least 100
@topaz veldt @edgy laurel i don't want to jinx it, but i installed windows 11 pro 25h2 this morning, and it's been behaving so far
sounds like it’s about to immediately corrupt every single file on your computer
These two aren't even in the same universe. Not really sure what sort of metric you're looking for otherwise.
perchance
Na just asking I’m kinda new to this stuff
mayhaps
daily drive weggos it’s totally usable for that
the key will be to hold off on any modifications or abnormal settings
then add them in slowly
welp, alright lol
we don't need oneslop, coslop, or anything else where we're going brother
Did you uninstall copilot yet?
read the post right above yours
yes of course my good friend coopa
I'm very smart
Did you guys have any problems with the new Windows 11/10 update where is giving black screens in some PCs, my PC is one of those and I'm reinstalling windows to fix it's buggy update from Microtrash
as it should
Installing this windowstrash again
Is my ten year old monitor
Obviously its a monitor you use when you have the true perspective on operating systems
Is my monitor from 2014
is there even a gpu in that rgb box
fuck windows 11
i’m seeing a severe misuse of budget allocation
real
rgb fishbowl for an apu is diabolical
I bought this one today, the only one that I could buy with my purchase power in this third world country that I live at
Some how your opinion of Windows is slipping away to ... meaningless lol
ok
thats like $32,000 USD
That’s a fantastic choice for the budget conscious entry level gamer
no wait its $340
It’s about £250
I'm pairing with a Ryzen 5 8600g that I have bought more than a year ago when the only money that I had was to buy this APU
fire
The original price is about £350 which is lols
but 8 rgb fans
If only panther lake had Desktop CPU's then iGPU might be a viable option
I don't really care, but it is an interesting decision to go all RGB but like... no specs otherwise
It gives more fps bro
so does a graphics card the first go around
the ugly but performant masterbox builds need to return
i dont think bro couldve bought a gpu with just the $30 savings from not buying some chineseum rgb fans :p
Thats 10% down on a GPU!
For that price he could use Geforce now, I hate myself for even sagin that
with current gpu prices i kinda respect the decision
but i personally hate rgb and wouldn't want them in my system
I might try GeForce now on my work trip lol
It is, I dont use it but I've heard good things about it. Just not my cup of tea.
its decent for some games
oh, the guy with the insanity inducing local storage setup
who dat
Just selfhost GEforce now, Duh
oh I think I have seen it
its like random HDDs just laying on shit
USB, all the USB
that's what God intended it for
Speaking of which is something like that even possible?
yes, its called GRid
@topaz veldt
a flash drive plugged into a consumer router is the idea nas
thank you for that, now i understand
well, that was interesting with no context
It is bro, I just bought one today 😭
bro
solid, i wish you many lucks with it
bro braggin on us
fr
He asked bro
FML I’m trying to install drivers but asus’s shit installer doesn’t run on the windows version I have which is just the latest up to date version
My bad guys, I was just showing @topaz veldt the GPU that I bought
I personally don't care
I have nothing to lose to be honest
that's not true, now you have an RX 7600
Bro, who is outside of Brazil is going to rob a guy from here living in a rural area from discord
Have you seen GPU prices? Shieeet
If they're going to rob me, go grab my 32GB of DDR5 which is worth much more than my GPU
<@&750150305383186585> the usual spam
Hey they changed it from Logan Paul to elons musk
There's always been many different ones
What should I have for dinner
Breakfast burritos
Buffalo chicken wings
Enchiladas are always good
chimichanga but its only cheese
shrimp
Whatever the wife wants tonight
Is the correct answer
5800x + stock cooler, 4x8gb g skill ddr4, and a Asus tuf X570 plus wifi. Any suggestions on its worth in USD? Going to be selling it for my friend
Dino nuggets
Why, you stealing my PC? Cause that's what's in it lol
Is your name Brian
If it is, you’re getting a 7800X3D on Monday lol
Well it is now that you mentioned that lol
Sweet, see you at 4pm. Hopefully you still have the new cooler, mobo, cpu, and ram already at your house haha
it’s a sign. i lost by 1 dollar, that means Im meant to overclock the 4790k instead
this better work otherwise I’m selling this shit and buying a ps5 
Not that selling all this stuff now that it’s way up in price would be a bad thing

side dishes need some work lol
Lobster is good but that presentation is like Denny's
Yeah I could’ve done better with side dishes lmao
asparagus can be good, but I need it grilled with oil and seasoning
Was fun using the big burner lol. So glad the smoke detectors didn’t go off
Opened some windows
It's...steam
stuffed clams 
So good. Basically bought a 9800X3D for dinner
one of those like "i'm an adult, i can cook lobster if I want to" kinda nights? nice
Well last time I used the big burner they decided to go off
hello, does anyone have the hd 600 series headphones? wondering if i should get one for gaming
like the 600s
Yes
I have hd600
Well the smoke detectors in this home is ionization types
It does seem like they are more prone to false alarms. Apparently gas burners can set them off but I could be wrong
im hearing both sides. Yes its worth getting but also no.
yes. HD650
Definitely asking my mom to get photoelectric smoke detectors once these go bad
i dont have smoke detectors cause i like to burn food
and turns out when you burn food the smoke detector detects that something is burning
I don’t have smoke detectors cause I’m just built different and fire can’t fw me
But do you have a fire extinguisher
Oh when I'm cooking certain things I put the smoke detector on a timeout in the garage
don't you have hd 800s?
no
you are
maybe it was snail
he doesn't either
@low sorrel still getting wacky artifacts?
I also have some
jerry is going crazy
Look at this fucking food
cool, cool cool cool
you people make me sick.
@edgy laurel
AND the grilled cheese had marionberry jam
that's a MELT! A MELT!!!!
(my turkey club was also delicious)
You god damn heretics. Respect the grilled cheese and stop changing it into whatever you like and love it for it what it is. Or make your damn melt sandwich and call it for what it is. A melt.
eat a disk its called a grilled cheese in the menu
either way it was GOOD fuck you linguistic puritan-ass fuckers
i KNOW and i DONT CARE
IT"S A MELT
if the PRIMARY INGREDIENT is CHEESE its a GRILLED CHEESE
i dont give a fUCK if theres meat or veg in it
i'd eat the shit out of it but that club looks like its got a whole head of lettuce in it. probably nice and crunchy
i can certainly see why lol
subway??
food does look banging though
would probably eat
nah it fixed itself after i unistalled this update https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-links-windows-11-update-kb5074109-to-gaming-artifacts-suggests-uninstall
Oh you fool you still use Windows 11?
don't call me out for what i am
my sources of income dont only include a job btw
I need to ditch 11
You also harvest kidneys?
yes yes 
My patients have a low survival rate but I still get paid

I find it amusing he thinks he knows me well 
For what? Lmao.
LTSC
That’s just 11 with extra steps
ur nan
Peyton I did not ask

Grilled cheese can include other ingredients
110%
If you put Bacon into a grilled cheese, it's still a grilled cheese
Ok what if I put ground beef, lettuce, tomato, ketchup and pickles as well
Is there more other stuff than cheese
NEIN! That’s not the PURE grilled cheese. It’s 3/5 grilled cheese UND the rest is stuff that does not belong!
That was so yesterday
Wut
Get it because that was yesterday
Bacon Grilled Cheese mmmmmmmmm
NEIN that’s unholy! restore the PUREity
jkjk idek this stuff and i dislike cheese
Cheese is awesome
it's 9pm
Well that was still yesterday though
It's 12 am for me
Yes they exist wdym they don't exist
I have 5 slices of bacon to cook in the morning.
The 5 slices add up to 18ish oz of bacon.
Nom nom nom

Nope

We got there
Actually a tech post?
Apple post
I’ve been messing around with hackintosh for a while
Ew who uses a mac
I finally got to an apple logo
Ohhhhh, nice
Nobody! Look closely
People for specific things
Show the win key
Like people who don't know that they could get a better computer from something else
Oh boy
Millions of people actually and un-ironically
Is this another ex ZTT outcast?
Yep that's definitely windows but why are you putting macos on it like linux is right around the corner
Their banwave has not been kind to us
Because interesting
But linux is more interesting
Not really
To me macOS would be more interesting
I haven’t used a Mac since like 2000
Hackintosh is way more interesting than another random Linux laptop
I use all 3 OS’s!
What laptop
It’s a ideapad 330s on an i7 kabylake
Only 3 OSs? You’re not a true Linux user
That's right
How many different Linux flavours are there actually. Gotta be like 30 or so right?
I tried Ubuntu, Debian and cachy recently
Hundreds
There are hundreds of them
I liked cachy I’m not gonna lie but it’s really not for a laptop with no external gpu
Damn really? That’s cool tbh
Hannah Montana has her own linux
Momo, this is like you are trying to converse with a pre-school class. 😆
Sybau nobody cares
Uh miley or the show?
There's a hm themed Linux distro. Straight up.
Holy shit that’s creepy af
guys we need to clown this guy for using the as bye word
Linus played with it on a Linux video once
hm theme?
Hannah Montana
i hate the fact I have a few fans lying around with nothing to plug them into because im outta headers 
I wonder how much of my ideas of linux has been tainted by my only linux distro being arch and dailying it for over a year
Splitters exist
too much effort
i had one of my can fans on my ak620 be on a case fan header because i lost the splitter
There’s a splitter header on both cpu fans
You just connect them in tandem to the cpu header
the slim fans looked funny ngl
no i lost the splitter header
it came with one and then i moved the ak620 because the motherboard died and i lost it a while back
Weird. As my AK620 fans both just connect together that way
what
im confused mine came with a little splitter
PST
Yeah mine didn’t
when did you buy it?
The fans headers connect together and then one connection to cpu_header
November 2023
huh thats around when i bought mine
this game tests tf outa me
@low sorrel
Match MVP and lose, bot frag and win. The valorant experience.
shit game
Would you say they are worth getting 600s 650 or 660?
Personally I think you spend half the money and get the 560S’
I want them personally for gaming
yeah
I'll look at some videos
tbf my audio setup is the next thing for me to needlessly upgrade. I got some decent speakers awhile back but I’ve been running the same headphones and mic for I don’t know how long now lol
ngl since getting them, they've been great even without any sort of EQ lol.
I just got use to the sound signature
Yeah I don’t EQ mine at all, they’re perfect for me
This is the way
As you say that my phone battery health finally dropped 1%

Wait I read wrong it says 2024 
I got double that for 6 months more usage 
https://x.com/i/status/2022306011294351603 it comes in all black?!
checking my spare RAM situation 😄
20GB of DIMM DDR4-2133
44GB of SODIMM DDR4 (slowest being 2400)
28GB of DDR3
Not as great as @topaz veldt , but better than not having any spare RAM. Plus all the >600GB RAM i have installed in various computers

Onboard memo...
I want to try it but it’s OOS everywhere lol
He genuinely made it sound godly which I believe him
I want one but again OOS and China’s gonna be shitting these outta nowhere in 1-2 months
Also it gives more “longer term” reviews to come out about their scrollwheel
I fully intend to try one and then return it just to try the new tech lol. I don’t care for the superlight shape.
I cannot with the fuckass shape and the weight tbh
Im all for lightweight stuff be it mice or cars
I can deal with the weight, it’s the shape mainly
That and after I had two Superlights with QC issues I genuinely just don’t trust Logitech with my money
I daily a Pulsar X2 Crazylight Mini, for about the last 3-4 months now
Was on a Viper V2 Pro before, and an Attack Shark R6 at some point in between
It’s completely OOS in the US as far as I can tell. It’s not even on Amazon.
Logitech sites out of stock but the retailers that don’t specialise in tech have it as far as I can see
I want a WLmouse variant of it with their body and shape
I’d be down to get a huan or a beast x mini version of the haptic stuff
put the tech in my Pulsar Crazylight mini and I’m chillin lol
Give it a few months and attack shark + it’s copycat variants will do the shape
dude came in and started speaking the facts language
this failed. at 50% everytime T_T
I’m curious as to what games are gonna kick you out of the lobby just for having this mouse 
So far people have been outright banned in Apex Legends and reports of people being kicked from CS2 matches for “macros”
i find it actually stupid to ban stuff like socd
like it’s not really cheating you still do the finger movement
they should then ban all keyboard with low actuation points
or monitors with high refresh rates
or anything that gives an advantage
what do they think of ring mouses btw?
you can program them to make clicks or movement just by making the most mild finger movements
is that not cheating? ban it all
Speak of the devil
Me on my way to be using the latest and greatest tech just to be playing wuthering waves;
<@&750150305383186585> scam account
Can’t detect Cronus nubs but bans a legit mouse 
we have 5070 mini at home
tb shopping be like
way over
i want a 5070 or 5060ti 16gb mini
in this economy even the chinese market is screwing us over
the bidding for a BOX of a 5070 ti is still ongoing
https://www.ebay.de/itm/137023331857
box only?
that is crazy
yup thats what the title and descriptions says
i wouldn't pay 251€ + 8€ shipping for that but some people seem to really like the box
the germans are going mad
if there is a market there are also scammers around
scammers
yup
starting the business trip correctly
the fact that people still try it, just for these to be refunded to the buyer every single time...
frankly idk how a buyer refund would be justified given the description
ya. seller should get that money if its as clearly described as the above example
@topaz veldt price is all over the place
Don’t get me wrong it’s still kinda scummy but like… Darwinism as well.
because ebay protects the buyer, even the dumb one.
Holy shit my work laptop has the Xbox app installed and I have Gamepass Ultimate. Work trip saved.
yeah i changed my mind the seller is le skammer
legally the scammer is pretty save if the description and title is correct.
as soon as the buyer pays there is probably no going back without a lawsuit
no, he is not safe. eBay always sides with the buyer on these
Brand, chipset and GPU should just say "Cardboard"
What games can it play? Vanilla minecraft?
I've seen the opposite if the description is 100% transparent
that might have been auto generated by ebay. i've never sold there so i don't know how that works
and yes it's 100% a scam
Anything with a strong enough internet connection. Xbox has cloud streaming.
Wouldve been better to bring a ITX like a man /s

it's not new and the seller lists new
which implies there is something inside
i image the buyer who made the offer realized his mistake and is now watching in horror while other push the price up to his maximum bid
The only problem with this is I didn’t bring a mouse or controller lmao
Nice whiff mac
Personally I cant deal with a trackpad xds
i don't understand why people buy matte glass pads
they literally sand down your mouse skates
"glide and control"
I can when I know I’ll be doing minimal work on the laptop
presumably they enjoy the feel..
and skates are cheap and easy to replace
@topaz veldt who do you usually fly through
yup
american
Their lounges any good? I’m gonna be stuck in Chicago for like 3 hours lmao
gates are gates, I do the centurion lounge
that's thru amex

I should get like an actual travel card at some point now that I’ll be traveling more
Or they just need to give me a company card atp

the shroomies are so white, it's like their texture didnt load in yet
man i really need more ram
Don’t we all
I dont
i have enough regular ram but i wish i had bought an ecc udimm kit
6400mt/s h32m kits from vcolor were reasonably priced for a few weeks
What’s a goood budget aio for my 7 5800x?
we need to go to 20% scaling for fsr 3.1 to replicate it
remember, kids
So my coworker who I sold my 4090 TUF OC to, I saw him last week at the data center. We get to talking with another coworker and I overhear "Yeah man like.... I started using DLSS and its GOOD"
I wasl ike holy shit dude wtf? Apparenly he's an OG and like totally did not believe in DLSS.
JUST started using DLSS
i wonder if theyll start adding official modes for less than 33% render scale
DLSS Desperate: 20% render scale

this is how i would do it:
DLAA: 100%
DLSS Ultra Quality: 80%
DLSS Quality: 66%
DLSS Balanced: 50%
DLSS Performance: 33%
DLSS Ultra Performance: 20%
that sux man :(
what does that mean
when your aftermarket cooler is too much for idle GPU 😄
58W at 0% util on a 1080Ti seems high
Desperate Lossy Sample based Scaling
with DLSS 4.5 anything 50% or above looks really similar in terms of macro image characteristics
like if a railing or light has edge aliasing then itll happen with DLAA or DLSS Performance
or foliage fizzling, it looks pretty much the same at 100% or 50%
it was jumping at that moment, it is 11W normally
dunno if its been posted but if real another core ultra 7 seems fire
those are old incorrect specs but yeh it does look fire
the point was about the temperature tho, while not being abused by LM Studio, it is sitting between 28C and 30C in 23C room
My body has decided that it had enough after years of working midnights. And my boss noticed and decided to let me go as he didn't want to risk me getting burnout and add more risk to physical health which is already on the decline

icl the U7 is calling out to me again
ah yeah, totally normal to not try to move you into an administrative position instead of firing a long time employee
there should be a single 8p16e 144MB tile option, id go with that
dual tiles with disabled cores is the worst config IMO
similar to the 9900x/9900x3d which are my least favorite ryzen cpus
Also I'm on a waiting list for mental health services to top it all off. How fun

Core 7 is kind of OP
Chat we’re in Chicago

kevlar engage
real
an ultra 5 or 7 sounds amazing for a APU build ngl
5nail is there any cool shit in ORD
We have confirmation. Now delete Chicago
FBI he’s joking
Yep. Just have to wait for the day of the appointments for doctors and shit
8p16e 36MB tile: 98mm²
8p16e 144MB tile: 154mm²
it's so based of intel to just put out a 1.5x sized tile to get more cache
I have only been like 2 or 3 times

hi
hello jorj
@brisk jolt you so totally need one
yeah so about that
also apparently pretty noisy, as you'd expect
it's okay, a 0.95v limit will save these tiny cards
i am not paying almost twice a normal’s 5080 cost for that jet engine
it also looks like shit doing so

i believe there was a galax cooler where the 5070 and 5070ti’s were interchangeable
sadly however its still 2 fan
I think Im finally getting 10gbps 
I really should’ve paid attention to the layovers when I booked this flight lol
I've been to ORD once
could i install windows 11 on a arm chromebook
Now, if this actually works on your specific chromebook I have no idea. That'll take additional research that I'm not going to do.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11arm64
well i'll try to
I'd get to reading/watching everything you can before going down that road.
Well it's no fun when reading. Time to softlock my Chromebook
How did you know!!?
this would be like the best 5070 pcb to mod a single fan to (not counting fe)
anybody know if i need really good airflow to oc a 4790k
i’m looking for a small case but all the ones that would work don’t have a lot of spots for fans or anything
or are expensive as hell
the cooler capability is more important than airflow
how’s a pa120
Update: American’s lounges are cool
$79 day pass but I will compensate with the complementary food and alcohol during my 3 hours here trust
if you can’t put down at least $79 of airport priced food and beverages in 3 hours i think you have some kind of disorder
Interesting. I've flown Delta
I’ve never travelled in like 9 years aka when I was a child :/
Do you realize like a single cocktail is like $20 in airports
exactly
oh I read “can” not can’t lol
you would have to try to not get your moneys worth lol
I was like “this dude is calling me an alcoholic” 
What funny my family now say airplane are over priced
mac have you ever handled ddr3
Get drunk, go home and beat your macbins up
handled yes
i’m looking for a good z97 right now to throw my 4790k into because i got outbid on the 2600
Haswell is all you need
yk what i mean lol
The fanciest we've flown was Emirates
people say most ddr3 even the crappy sticks can hit 2133
I’ve no idea when Im ever gonna travel lol
and that you can cut latency by almost 50% if you try hard enough
i’m thinking about a crappy zalman case and putting two industrialppc fans in the only 2 fan slots lmao
4790k + 1080ti 💪
lowkey for ewaste this isn't bad at all
$25/cpu
not bad not bad
i think i'll give my sister the 6700xt and take the 2060 back today
6500t is a nice little server cpu
me running 1080 Ti with 2699v3. And 128GB ECC RDIMM (only 2133 tho) 😄
you can get better ewaste
2200G is kinda problematic tho, because many boards has support for the 1st gen APUs removed. Plus it doesn't run W11 officially anyway
bro said "doesn't run w11 officially"
You need Zen+ Ryzens for not to have go oaround the HW requirements. 2200G is Zen 1
literally who doesn't use rufus for every w11 install lol
ventoy 🥺
potato potato
skill diff
more clicks, haven't had a compelling reason
Windows media creator is perfectly fine for me on this
you also have to consider that 80% of the machines i install windows on are ewaste
so it's just a force of habit
roll up the windows
I find it faster overall because I don't have to do the bypass the windows account thing
I don't have to bypass it either 😉
on older systems i install Kubuntu 🤷♂️
I think both my systems are considered geriatric at this point. Surely one of them is
Zen3 and Zen4 are old school
wmc is weird with some of the usb drives i have so i use rufus
i have two ivy bridge systems (one is HTPC, one is backup NAS)... what are those then ?
i know but i would rather have a tube connecting the polish ambassador to the US' farts directly to my nostrils than use linux on anything newer than core 2 duo
Is it a problem if my case doesn't have a mesh front panel
gasp, you use a system without an npu? how do you even get by
depends on the hardware but if high end then probably
Yoo Wasgood people
it depends
With no details, no one can tell you.
Does anyone of yall know a lot about nvme’s?
Pretty simple stuff. If you have a question, just ask it.
I have a 9070 and a r5 7600x
...and what case
Arctic xtender
Well it ain’t that simple sadly, I have a legion laptop and I installed a new drive as an extra an nm990 from lexar
also have you added or changed any case fans because that can make or break you
It didn’t work, after diagnosing it for a bit I decided it was the drive I returned it got a new one and installed it
Now the same thing happened
i would assume this case is pulling in air from the back, no?
My dude, this is a typical fishtank. Of course it doesn't have a mesh "front" panel but its "front" is just the side.
Hmmm what would you put on an old P4 system with only 512 mb. of rdram and a RIVA TNT2 per chance?
debian 32 bit probably
as in OS ? Whatever the games you want to play on them require ?
with xfce
Do you have documentation to support the slot officially supports NVMe and not just SATA? How new is this laptop?
Eeehhh just for the sake of "upgrading" it from WinXP sp3.
So its the same the diffrent is only that the one is at the front and the other one at the side
i installed debian 32 bit (the newest version) on a netbook with an intel atom that is absolutely worthless and it managed to open a web browser, but unfortunately even a google docs document took about 3 seconds for a keystroke to register lmao
You just have a different style case. It doesn't look like a good one as most fishtanks have the intake at the bottom but as long as you have the side setup for all intake then the top and rear exhaust, thats as good as its going to get. With those parts, it'll be fine.
The laptop is extremely new as I. I have had it for about a month now, it has a gen 4 and a gen 5 slot, I took the standard drive from the primary gen 5 slot and put it in the gen 4 slot then I installed my new gen 5 disk in the gen5 slot
yeah i was gonna say, those parts aren't super prone to overheating
have you formatted it and added a partition
Do either of these slots recognize the drive you installed?
I did and it worked fine for 2-3 days installed some games played some games
Slot 2 recognizes my drive fine
@edgy laurel is this right
I have event viewer files for anyone who is interested
unfortunately this is gonna have to be guilty's problem because i'd rather die than look at event viewer
Then there you go. Problem solved. The Gen4 vs 5 stuff is pointless. Gen5 drives are beginner bait anyway, waste of money.
Well, I wouldn't worry about connecting it to the internet and such. The system in question only has a dial-up modem anyway. Even giving it an ethernet card has turned into a challenge of just finding one that even is compatible.
scratch that i just found 6 in one raid
Huh
Install the drive in the slot that works. Problem solved.
fucking played like 30 raids and found zero and then i find SIXX???
Both slots work
Then i'm not following what the problem is.
The primary drive was originally installed in the primary slot
So keep it there, put the new drive in the second slot.
It is randomly going offline and throwing a bunch of errors
That would make it being Nvme gen 5 useless wouldn’t it
More useless then it already is yes yes
i don't know how to fully determine this, but chatgpt says your typical p4 is probably about as powerful as the single core atom i'm referring to, so you could probably try an older version of debian 32 and do somewhat well
Why are you using AI to answer this stuff?
Well, they are useless. You'll never use its advertised sequential read/write unless you have another equally as fast drive to move files between. So you wasted money and (depending on the drive) might generate extra heat anyway. Either way, if you have a drive going offline in a laptop from time to time, time to open a support ticket with your manufacturer and/or post in #1027757333117415424
because it is not worth me actually going through real research and i wanted a quick answer?
Now I really don't trust what you're saying now.
You need intake and exhaust, you have both. (assuming you setup the fans correctly)
then find out yourself brotha idk what you want from me 😭
i'm not a pentium 4 expert
Nothing?
Like, dude, I asked Parandroid a hypothetical question and you tried answering it instead.
That’s kind of the issue, I returned the previous drive and got a new one returned to me same issues
What does Lenovo say?
So I just humoured you to see what you knew.
Not to Lenovo* I returned the ssd
I know
At least I know you don't actually know anything then. Lol.
Can’t upload files or photos here I see

@topaz veldt You need ITB's for your RAM
the real killer is that wood topper for the D15G2
(Real talk where does the hot air even go, this seems like a flawed design but the proof is in the numbers)
Probably the tiny holes in the sides and out the bottom
@topaz veldt just farming some tick pods for my friend whos brand new to the game
I almost wanna say I can probably design something better but if that's by noctua then hell if I know
Sounds about right
Based on this image id imagine heat dispersing under the chamber from where the ram clicks in
Since the case is pushing air into the holes, but if it works 
The thing has 2 mini noctuah fans
Smth like this as the air hits the base/motherboard
excellent Paint rendition
for those not into cars, they look like ITB's (individual throttle bodies)
I had to do a double take to make sure if it wasn't AI or not 
It looks pretty cool though

Huh
you can print it too https://www.printables.com/model/1387934-ddr5-ram-cooler-cooling-kit/files

Never hurts to try
Interesting I've never seen a design like this before

Especially for a ram cooler
40mm based ones are an L
this is too much work for something that simply delidding the sticks can accomplish
it’s cool but i’d only do it for like aesthetics
1440p 240hz is less than $200
kyoko pov :
since when could lances mixtapes stack?
phones nice but i don’t think it’s worth $1100
eeeee

This app keeps sending me side quests instead of the main story.
bruh
why does facebook crash on desktop
real talk, is this because I am using it on firefox
maybe
use chrom
it good
I actually don't want facebook to sync with browsers I use day to day 😭
facebook is only meant to be used to scroll marketplace and nothing else
on the marketplace tab it is crashing after 20 seconds
confirmed
fate worse than death
well i was a few minutes into creating a listing then the page just went blank
your pc is low
كلش زين 
now its blanking after like 20 seconds
زي فل
just use chrome and ctrl shift n
ctrl shift n what deos do
incognito mode
to list something on marketplace
ok
bro shipping is so easy though
mother fucker
depends on the item
real problem is that ebay takes a big cut
That’s lost prophets when ya ship
chrome is doing the same shit
oh
oh damn guess it's just facebook
use chromium
FBM gives me cold hard cash
last chance format your pc
guess i'll stick to the mobile app
advantages to mobile app
- quicker to add photos
disadvantages
what are you selling
slower to type
DDR4
ah dope, go get your $400
yeh
huge money
dude the facebook desktop site is just broken
I am listing stuff kinda high and i'll see if i get any low balls
otherwise i'll slash it in like a week or two
sell on ebay.de, they get no cut. Seriously (if you are in EEA) https://export.ebay.com/en/resources/important-updates/ebay-news-archive/final-value-fee-c2c-sellers/
the A750 in apex at 1440p is certainly an experience
Biggest meme of 2026
real talk, second hand ddr4 (at least lower capacity kits) aren't selling for crazy prices
people don't want the 2x8 kits sadly
neither do I
I think next weekend I can refresh my listings with cut prices or something
Any recommendations for a 27” 1440p 180-240hz OLED other than the MSI 274QP? Was going to get it for my wife but wondering if theres any other better bang for buck options
Maybe lesser known brands with a similar quality product for less $?
available in the US organized by price https://pcpartpicker.com/products/monitor/#P=9&D=240000,600000&F=660400000,716280000&sort=price&page=1
Choose A Monitor
240Hz is the minimum available
there are no 1440p options with lower refresh rates
This thing has me interested
1440p
will get your your basic 240Hz QD-OLED. Matte though, if you care (and you should)
I have determined that the ASUS MAXIMUS VI Z87 board is the only reasonable option for my 4790k build that doesn’t cost a million dollars
Are you saying the Samsung is matte or I should get matte?
the Samsung is
Is that worse for OLEDs or something? Ive never experienced it, I have the 321URX and its glossy ish
321URX is glossy, yeah.
why are you buying haswell in 2026
that Samsung will be like most of your LCD's you've probably experienced over the years. Grainy matte finish. Not the best but some people don't care
Gotcha, appreciate the info
glossy OLED or bust
I came from an IPS semi recently so I get the matte finish, just haven’t experienced a matte OLED
if youre in the USA then you can get 1440p 280Hz QD-OLED for $390
280Hz for $390 is a nobrainer over 180Hz for $350 IMO
Im assuming you’re talking about the Acer
since when did they start making 180hz options. I give up
I think im gonna grab that Acer fs, seems like a better deal
Plus shes going to be on a 3080 system I just tossed together for her so she doesnt need anything crazy
I was just going to get an IPS, but we just got an OLED tv and I got my OLED monitor so now we’re both spoiled
there's also this if youd rather not buy from Acer (i have no idea about their firmware or warranty) https://www.newegg.com/msi-mag-271qp-qd-oled-x24-27-qhd-240-hz-metallic-black/p/N82E16824475469
1440p 240Hz for $430, but with a $100 steam credit, and Resident Evil Requiem
so even if you dont care about resident evil it's basically $330
Thats kinda a crazy deal tbh
I JUST made her a steam account for the first time so I might have to do that
i think id take that over the acer
i just dont trust anyone but asus, gigabyte, and msi to offer good firmware and controls
I liked my previous Acer IPS, but it was just a cheap IPS lol
I liked it for the amount I spent
180hz 27” 1440p IPS, had built in speakers and was something like $150
you have a msi yourself so youll be more familiar with how to set that one up
Man I fucking hate glare
But good point
i already have all of it besides the mobo and i wanna do oc for fun
diffuse your lamps, you can even diy it a few ways
I mean I usually play lights off so thats not so much an issue
