more than likely anyways
figure out if it is in fact a normal standard, if it’s some rando 12v rgb idk if it’ll just work
Also, picture is from an EBay listing for a replacement for said Aurora R7, so it's identical for this one atleast
The board in that picture.
Oh fair
Well, that'll just take multimeter testing
oh nvm normal rgb is 12v
also if you’re not soldering inclined have we considering just tearing out the dell leds and running strips in the same spot
Oh
Okay
mhm
That's if it doesn't work
Though yeah, RGB LED strips was on my mind
you can’t tape wires to a zif connector
you’re saving a couple dollars at most diying it
unless the strips adapt to zif at some point earlier
because that’s your led strips end connection
Okay I have to go eat
Sorry, will be back
@merry stirrup terrible news. Epic has raised V-bucks prices.
i saw. it’s joever.
the whole
mc legacy leak thing doesn’t seem like it’s gonna end well
i’m sure 3/4 of the clients are malware or something
probably
i should bring up my 360 to my apartment to play legacy instead of destroying my computer
it’s the easiest way to get someone to trust you
blind them via nostalgia
old friend turned into a snake type shit
i can't believe the nice internet people would do this
not only raised them
battle pass vbuck rewards halved
you can only earn enough to buy the next pass
800 cost -> 800 earned
gross
Epic might now be the worst company ever
real
if you kept crew for a year you lost $46 of value from it basically (costs $144/year)
damn
so what is crew
i know it gives you bucks per month but
what else cause if it’s 12$ and only gives you 800 a month
you get every battle pass access + skin pack per month + 800vbucks a month
what’s the point
oh ok seems fine still
(i don’t play fortnite)
it’s better to buy crew over just the battle pass if you’re done with the pass
since they got rid of the xp boost from paid pass
because you can just unlock everything that month window
and it’s $13.99 or whatever vs 8.99 for a lot more stuff
yeah
i heard about crew i just always thought it was basically an allowanc/vbucks saving account type shit and not anything else
automatically convert my real money into fake money at the end of the month
nah it’s basically just gamefly the battle pass and get an ugly skin
DogeCoin
na mean?
only 4? pshhhhh
torturing us small people with that picture
just my work lab - you should see real envs 😐
i need myself a pair of unc moccasins
yes you do
floppa you ever done memory on a renoir apu
seems legit
wouldnt imagine it being any different than cezanne
i will purchase myself a pair
They are delectable
at some point here soon
@merry stirrup how'd the interview go
as i want slippers that work as shoes
probably good, seemed like they like me
way smaller of a company than i thought - 8 people
im easily half the age of any single person in that place
8 people in the group or
whole company
omg
yeah - insane
somehow they also bought out the two local computer stores here (which is why there is now 0)
idk they must make a pretty decent amount of money if theyre capable of doing that
what does the company do
theyre an MSP
wild
yeah
like helpdesk type service or what
pretty much, thats what id be doing anyways
seems like they do a bunch of stuff tho, advertise basically the whole 9 on their site
i'll dm it to you
dude g skills support number doesn’t even have an automated voicemail it’s just a guy that answers the phone
https://youtu.be/-evOlpsFdXM looks like another game where playing with RT/PT is most optimal
Get a first look at path tracing in 007 First Light in our new exclusive trailer.
007 First Light is coming with path tracing and DLSS 4.5! Experience Bond’s re-imagined origin story on PC in stunning detail and with incredible p...
kiss him
that’s refreshing

he sounded like he was depressed maybe he needs it
same with Indiana Jones from last year. It was 
I have to give props to Alan Wake 2 though. Playing that again since launch and got dam
I only launched it, compared native to path traced and called it a day xd
Indiana Jones has still been my favorite PT so far
i didnt even exit the musuem
I did not finish the DLC yet though 
idk should i play the game
Indiana Jones w/ different theme
i thought the same thing when that game was announced
i too launched it on my rtx 3080, compared maybe 60fps to 15, and uninstalled
8K sodimms???
it's the same studio right?
shoutout to the best weapon in the game
really seems it
floppa when number big
nice that confirms that nova lake officially supports 8000mts jedec
which is what Jaykihn said
well considering the highest rated sodimms ive seen before this were 6400 and barely - yeah
maybe we’ll see people daily driving 10,000+
It's only March
10K+ is my own goal for NVL yeah
i’m just bein silly dw
🙄
it's only 2026
doesn't look like it
I must just be misremembering then
@shell void have you purchased your taxbook neo
I should get two NVL itx builds with the other being in the velka 3 with 5060ti cyclone
hard to tell rn
iykyk (you don't know though)
https://www.ecs.com.tw/en/Product/Mini-PC?tab=3 not on their site yet sadly
bro got the doohickey plugged in
C*CK?
i heard that mac ordered one in the Blush color
i would totally rock one of those when i move out
yes but not in that way
@turbid locust is this real
theyre efficient but the wattage is high
I’m having some problems with my ram can someone pls help
efficient to me dawg
5090 efficient asf i dont care about the power draw i care about the work done/power
start with explaining the problem. someone might bite then
which is the actual metric of efficiency
then yes nova lake is a huge efficiency upgrade for multithread
Ty
fiiiine
damn well you know i would
No Michael is just salty
although broken ram is boring
holy ping batman
quad feed ping
360 y y akn ping
one more for the road
killstreak ping
uav inbound
but if you want to make it broken faster, hmu
even I can do that
1.8V go!
same RAHHH
you should buy some like $50 laptop
i have made a quite neat discovery
homie has h16a cut down into h8a
in case anyone was wondering it is in fact quite similar to h16a like everyone else says
6k c38 16GB kit (8GB*2) with ig officially named H8C
but even hwinfo just calls it adie
may do tcl at lower volts than h16a
booted 6k 28 at 1.25v - didnt try lower
if not then its just the best adie ive ever seen
i am not sure why you think that
i said that i have no problem with the neo at $500
all i said was that it doesn’t kill all laptops under $1200, and you replied saying that i’m emotionally charged and salty xD
i think id like a sandwich for food this fine morning
you should go to arby’s and get a reuben
tell mike to go ham on my sandwich
tell mike to be absolutely vile with your sandwich in the back
mike be absolutely vile with my sando
tell mike no safe word
dont hold back homie
jersey is a mindset
isn't pepe in jersey
where is the most ordered why wont they tell me 😭
#2 & #3 most liked exist, but not the #1
damn
i hit the 2 for 1 italian from jersey then
2 for 1?
Because you cannot stop bringing it up dude
the new hot sub is good but idk the name
exactly that
just "hot italian"
yeah that was good
pov that one lady from the sopranos
not super into pickle
so idk how id like hot relish
oh its pepper relish not actual pickles
ohhh 
so skip the vinegar if i get that
idk i just ate the thing cold no modifications and liked it tbh
is it just called mikes in jersey
Nebraska Mike’s
also a local sando place i saw while going to my interview i wonder if theyre on the dash
not open yet
is this the lingo all the hip youngsters are speaking
im like 130 pounds soaking wet
i just like my doordash ok
if dd dashpass had things like discord did for nitro with the badges and what not id be like diamond
Zif?
zero input force
Wait one second lemme Google that rq
Oh
those little tiny cables that are 0.5mm thick
floppa is basically a normal dude?!
130 pounds when soaking wet or 130 pounds and soaking wet
or alternatively 130 pounds and soaking wet
say whaatttt
everyone on discord is meant to be 300+ pounds
50/50 between the sub getting toasted and the sandwich maker getting toasted
im not far off
same, same
140 lbs to go
to go down
LOL
so what, you're either getting a raw chicken sandwich and stoned cook or cooked chicken sandwich and sober cook
or a chicken sandwich that will get you stoned
didn't think about that
raw sandwich with stoned cook probably tastes better tbh
doing my sandwich raw with the cook
i had to go with the bit
yo weight yo tv price
i deeply appreciate that
if i don't have a tv do i just not weigh?
if you weigh nothing your tv is free
1 Lb = 1 dollar?
yeah
i gotta go buy so many G5s
Fair
also i gotta lose an incredible amount of weight to make them as cheap as possible
what's the bare minimum weight i can be at about 5'10"
that isn't very short
yeah but if youre not 6'7 i want nothing to do with you
if youre not 6 foot youre not a real man
if ur not 6 foot you should go 6 ft deep
6 feet tall and 6 feet under
no wait
no you’re given a dollar per pound toward a tv
what
inflation is crazy nowadays
especially on devianart
ohhhhh
look up akn rule 34 inflation to learn more
great minds think alike
you think it would be bad if my pfp dipped a little lower
probably not
damn i gotta be 48.5 pounds
i dont think thats healthy
where are you buying an lg g5 for $48.50
my bad, reading comprehension went through the window
i looked up the lg g5 weight
i think my writing went out the window too
i need lg tandem oled to watch movies with the roomie on
if im the roomie ill get it for you
lwk want a galaxy tab
another amazing morning to do nothing and listen to jamiroquai
akn your steam name is insane
what a W pull bro
Two of this lighting package should work
Two specifically because one strip can cover two of the ends
And it comes with two strips
yo how much worse is 2 dimms on a daisy chain am4 board vs 2 dimms on a 2 slot board
is it like really significant
something like this used to be my pfp too
i used to be funny
.. Daisy chain AM4 board???
well if oc boards are 1dpc what would one think
as opposed to T-Top? i dont think theres any T-Top AM4 boards
or im getting my memory topologies mixed around
man discovers fire
someone tell this guy about whocrashed
I have no idea what daisy chain or T-Top is
memory topology types
i just read the dump files
Is it as the name suggests
somewhat
All DIMMs are daisy chained together in terms of data
floppas being a giant nerd rn
one gains signal integrity with 4 dimms, one loses it with 4 dimms
pretty sure its t top that likes 4 dimms than 2, and daisy chain only likes 2
yes
do dummy sticks affect signal integrity in t topology
Yeah but maybe it's just dead traces
0x0gb is so funny to see
hi peyton
still terminated somewhere vs just open to air picking up signals
I’m aware daisy chain is worse than 1dpc but I was more so asking if it’s by a small or large margin with 2 sticks
oc boards are 1dpc
So.. Most consumer boards are daisy chain?
Because, well, DR RAM
brother
large
okay
i didnt understand what you were saying at first then it hit
i thought you were asking me the difference between 2 dimm daisy chain vs a 2 slot board
no lol
because it makes no sense to optimize for 4 sticks when most consumers historically have had 2
no reason to make 2 dimm performance worse for the broad majority
but yes most boards especially nowadays are daisy chain
yeah zen 6 is rumoured to only have the stronger imc on slots a2 b2 since that's what 90% of memory configs are on
(because amd is cheap)
real
Fair
I assume most workstation boards are T-Top / mixed?
and you usually fill all the slots
so one would assume naturally t-top but likely its just whatever is cheaper to implement
and im a nerd but not that much of a nerd
never go full nerd.
accidentally found this insane gem
rodrick?
you need to nerd out
that's sick
i must contain all knowledge within myself
yeah id buy that for too much money if im being so honest
throw a dram ic into anything and i go feral fr
also the guy says theyre dummy dimms but theyre very much not
unless corsair changed their dummy dimm design
but those have caps and resistors and every pad filled
so those are prolly real sticks
it's was a trend a while back, where people would post stuff they were nerdy about, but it ended up people just posting that they were nerdy about starbucks, chik fila, lululemon and so on
ohhhh
yeah turns out people are basic bitches
(me included)
nothing wring with being interested in those things, but it's not nerdy
oh was that where the being niche thing came from
maybe idk
we were talking about cool dimms yesterday and i forgot about these ones
OC LAB Diamond
DDR4-5000 straight from galax's actual oc lab
not just OC lab slapped on for marketing
ddr4 5000 wow
whos galax and whats oc lab?
galax is galax and oc lab is oc lab, hope this helps
galax is a vendor and they generally make the best nvidia cards for any given gen under the HOF name
oh i thouhgt they're a youtube channel or smth
no
i mean technically sure that is also true
heres one of the cooler ones with the maxxed out pcb
perty
a feat
would i be lying if i said these don't cost an arm and a leg
they did a 5080 hof too i didnt know dat
yes because they cost like 16 arms and legs
you need a 750Ti HOF
theyre kinda cheap
no way
like i can get a 980ti hof for like 200$ i think
what is that @steel stream
paulas channel
Paula's Channel dude (idk random yt rec)
friendship with peanut ended, we all in on paula's channel
it's just a still photo
holy dx racer
5070ti hof also exists
a still photo for 2 and a half hours
why did you like it
floppa would deadass offer me $350 for my 5070ti
just the guy he is
too much unless signed
idk maybe it'll help the channel
loses 20% value per year the math adds up or something
on a nissan maybe
i can't find any :/
i think even 700$ is ok for a 5070ti still
@shell void the legend is real
920$ for a 5070
hey man, a nissan is like 50% per year
hot damn that is a powerful cooling system
my dad just got a nissan frontier and my mom told me not to say anything because she knows i shittalk the nissans 😭
😭
motherfucker hell nah
out of all trucks you pick a nissan, damn
budget brother akn
fugging 200 sgd for shipping?? the fuck
understood
ya we've talked abotu this one. i don't actually love it
are we deadass
where is that
is 300eur for a 5060 a lot?
it's maybe 50mv more efficient lmao
bro i dont even think that
they just ram clock on a normal 9800x3d and call it good 😭
also a 2026 of any brand does woo a man who had a 2004 f150 the day prior
i feel like this is cheap
fair enough
and binned the imcs better
i mean they're at least 50% percentile samples
absolutely not
since some can't run any pbo offset at all
might be a nissan, but i hope it runs well and your dad enjoys it
unless theres concrete data on that i refuse to believe amd does any form of imc binning for any of their cpus aside from workstation/bareminimum
nah some guy that I forgot the name of binned them and most could run 6400C26 while the 9800x3d from a specific batch became worse iirc
how many
of each?
Can you run 110 watts through a b450 with no vrm heatsink or is it gonna shit itself
i can find data on the vid tables but no imc data
ok no it was not 100 i lied
the linux users really think he's completely stupid
it was 71 my memory it shit
interesting
The amount of outrage this has created in the Linux community is amusing
i love to see it
yeah apparently Im reading the history rn after batch 4 the 9800x3d imcs indeed dropped from basically being 6k guaranteed to now 5600
ok based off the data in their charts theyre not testing g1 at all
the linux people are insufferable
Linus himself has pushed back the year of the linux desktop by like 5 years maybe
day 1 buy was the move
idk maybe it is better but i really dont believe amd would do anything to reduce their yields
amd has a history of not doing that
@merry stirrup Okay nvm I was wrong
I do need extra cables for the front panel
the dude that slid me that has a 9850x3d running 6400C36 on 2x64GB
i believe that but i dont believe the chances of it working are any different than how silicon typically improves as they produce it more
i cant find the one you linked where they said they did so this is all i got
The picture I saw with the front power cable being only a 2 pin is from a re-casing
The original Dell cable is the full proprietary one
imc bin is cope by big hopers
No issue though, I can simply use wires for those
mac pov
ram in a ram ramming ram
@pure garnet dual mode owner, right? How does that work in practice, again. As in, when you initiate the swap, does windows just effectively say you have a different resolution?
will smith will smith will smith
they have 2 different edids if that's the right word
so when im in 1080p it reports a max of 1080p320hz but in 4k mode it can only do 1080p 160hz
Oh btw apparently the ones I am referring to and sending are jumper wires
Will those work too? Or are they simply just plain copper with insulator like usual
got it, ok. so its more than simply changing the res windows side.
wires is wires
yes and your computer thinks it’s two different monitors
Copper and insulator :3
@shell void it is indeed unfortunate im not buying the 5070 mini
it's just 1 toggle in the osd though, i even have a button for it
ok. one of those things we've talked about for ages at this point but never really fully understood what was happening in practice
it’s 2 ‘spensive, init?
brutal
at least for him
Okay, semi-unrelated
I am sorry for such redundancy, but just to make sure
Populating pins 4 & 5 with those two cables, and connecting them to the board jfp will allow the power button to be used, yes?
ill grab the cyclone 5060ti 16gb, evade import taxes and be happy
Okay, thank you
i didnt know the 5060ti was faster than the 9060xt tbhg
I'll see what other pins I can populate
Tbhg?
yeah no way im paying higher for a 5070 mini over my current 5070ti
the g was an accidnet
i would go for the 9060XT 16GB if there was a readily available single fan option but basically no manufacturer has the balls to do a proper single fan except for the lowly xx50 and non ti/xt xx60s
and have it out worldwide
iirc there is one that did it
another china exclusive
yah sounds about right
unfortunately the broad majority of people dont care how big their pc is
which i mean, i dont really either, but small pcs are nice
Oh
the cyclone is cuter anyway tbf
the 5070 mini is an extremely basic design
it’s just interesting because it’s the most powerful small card
The lack of single fan cards for "higher end" options is unfortunately very saddening
I think i’ll also have an easier time putting the cyclone in the velka 3
i also get more flex psu options
didnt they do cyclone 40 series too? maybe those r cheaper
next to impossible to obtain today
damn
8 Cougars and 16 Arctic Wolves cuddled up with 144MB of L3 cache in a TSMC N2P Compute Tile will save us
get me a GTX 1070 katana
if only it was 18A....
i woulda paid you a lot of money for it today
well, a lot more money than a 1070 is worth
although my RTX 4k is effectively an RTX 2070(S) katana
this looks shockingly optimized for a kmmo
If its somehow feasible for the cyclone I could consider a funny 4070fe fan mod slapped on top
if a 2080 can do 4K30 at medium then you should get around 90fps at 4K Medium
i have no idea how im gonna do that since likely axp47 clips wont do the trick
you aint gotta like it cause the hood gon love it
glad to see the cpu recommendation doesnt balloon like hell
i use dlss 4.5 performance a lot nowadays because it fools my eyes for casual gaming
KITTIES
maybe I could breathe some slight GPU life into my laptop with the 5060ti cyclone ngl even tho tb4
meower (slur)
meowerer (extra-slur)
damn thats double mean
cancels itself out
cant stop lookin at the 1070 katana man
insane how this soundcard is effectively the same pcb length
actual laptop fan in that card 😭
damn, i wonder how good it sounds if you use S/PDIF

i want one of those asus sound cards for the built in cheats
straight up radar for sounds on my monitor
I had a badass one, wish I still did
It had big relays that would click when you used the software to switch between the headphone amp and the RCA pre-outs.
very satisfying
5 day PC tuning ideal
man thats neat
since i was reminded i own a quadro im gonna see if theres a backplate my homie can 3d print for it or soemthing
i love relay clicks

youll love this video then
the best
it has given me an infinitely cooler idea
you need a G12
guy who made that goes into detail on how his g12 didnt work on that, lol
name me a better duo
peanut butter and jelly
good to know tc1 is still tc1
out here tc1'ing
I had to explain JEDEC and what XMP is to someone this morning and then they just ghosted me
venn diagram between linux users and insufferable people is so close to a circle
because no, the 6000MT/s kit wasn't going to ru nat 6000 out of the box, regardless of what they thought
damn am i that bad
i hate to break it to you this way but...
end of the day this was just a really good DAC/amp combo just internal. wish I still had it... but I also couldn't even fit it in my system lmao
my only other PCIe slot is covered
We do a little trolling
can't even fit like a riser?

@pure garnet out for blood with that one
you love to see it
Zen2 is like tc1's bread and butter
i’ve never seen so many reactions so fast
he was REALLY confused 💀
I can pull a 5nail if I feel like it 
maybe, actually
buy 6 5090's?
Eh not that far
bro this thread is getting better. people really asking linus if he unplugged the USB stick after install https://linustechtips.com/topic/1633555-linus-this-is-how-you-install-kubuntu-the-dump-to-desktop-looks-like-you-somehow-copied-the-live-image-to-your-drive/
my 3700x was noticeably holding back my 6700xt several years ago
so i just know cope when i see it
when i jumped the 3080 i also got the 5800x3d
just throwing terminal commands at him is the definition of irony
they have no idea
i think the simplest way to put it is that for linux users, their os is their hobby
leaving things alone on their computer is not something they want you or themselves to do
yeah
if your hobby is a buntu that’s kinda lame anyway
sshhhh the “spend 80% of your budget on your gpu” individuals are gonna hear you
i mean i agree with gpu maxing
wdym other people don't have the same interests as me???
literally modern 6 core + the best gpu you can get is generally the value meta
i just don’t think anything older than zen 3 or alder is really worth using for a modern enjoyable experience
x3D's existence caused far too many people to overspend on CPU's.
Tell me i'm wrong.
100%
make that 200%
well i see i have entered the lions den i will leave now
if you don't have an X3D you can't game obviously
x3d brainrot and people buying 6 am4 cpus
thi sis true
obviously
you don’t need to upgrade every gen in the socket just because you can
what youre saying is foreign to me
if I ever tell someone whos somewhat into tech i bought a modern intel processor i get flamed
flipside.
Good on AMD for both releasing a product that works and decimating the competition in mindshare.
yeah then you clap back by making fun of their soc which will go over their heads
63 gigabytes of memory bandwidth
I've bought several modern intel processors - N305 and N150
if i say i have an arrowlake chip in tc1 ill start WW4
Where's my pic of my X3D and LGA 1851 boxes 
i just have to outnerd them and say I like the arch and packaging technology more, that's how I get through to them
I love the rage bait that generates
There it is
but bro AMD crushses intel in gaming, why would you do that
I'm confused, why is that rage bait 
tc1 when anything:
AM5 owners - my cpu games better than your intel.
Intel owners - urrhhh hurrr I can overclock my ram huurrr durrr
Confession: I've been using my LGA 1851 rig more than the AM5 one. Might give that to Father Bone TBH

That’s how I see people in this discord talk about the two current offerings from cpu
facts
I mean, it's better than just debate 2% difference in something that no one cares
flops in tc1 rn:
yeah i forgot that guy existed and his presence made me mad
1851 is love, 1851 is life. (until lga 1954 comes out)
tbh last couple of weeks I haven't mostly been using AM5 either
... because I used sTR5 instead
all im gonna say is that me, a historical intel buyer and fanboy, sold his am5 within like 3 months
if thats not undeniable proof that intel is better idk what is
LGA 1851 broke my habit of tuning the PC on, grabbing water and still waiting for the OS to boot and instead grab water, turn on, wait like 2 seconds and boots
big turbocharger vs supercharger
my platform has working safeboot
amd cannot say the same 3/4 of the time even for their last generations
must mean intel is better
i just like the cores and the arc igpu
aside from that one time safeboot worked on my 7900x3d
idk dude intel can shift up to the 4th gear while amd only at best has 2
I just like the smell
and i mean genuinely once
STOP HUFFING CPUS
huffing cpus is bad for your health
oof, ok that one mighta been a bit much
Also didn't I mention that the LGA 1851 rig is purly air-cooled?

now thats suspicious
what did you do with bassbone
lga1851 is breathing proper fresh air while my am5 is drowning in water
huffing cpus?
or did i miss smth
imma turn in tbh its 3am
yeah the consumerism it festered is probably not good
was just commenting on that user with the CPU and AIO budget that were the same
everyone used to just buy the $160 ryzen 5
ohhh
R5 100$ was a thing too
at least the latest is that price now. Didn't used to be
oh, wait no its $186 now
are you saying previous ryzen 5's were mroe expensive
cause the 9600x was 300$ msrp bro
i know
AMD's literally gone to "fuck the low-end market"
then again the darling 5600x was also $299 when new, wasn't it?
yes and i also made fun of it then
"Oh, you need to save money? Buy a platform that went EoL 6 years ago that we're keeping on life support forever."
it sold fast
then the 11400 came out
I'm still here
with 2/3 of the MSRP
beautiful gpu
my homie's got one of the 9060xt's in white
5600 (non-X) came out in 2022 with an MSRP of 200
I wish PCPP's price history went further back than 2 years
wanted to see how quickly it dropped after launch
intel was walking over amd in the value segment then
year earlier for the same performance at the same cost
also was when amd got rid of their r3's which people were mega salty about back then (and still are)
so 10100 was able to roam freely
hahahahahaha
man
i forget about the xt skus
my brain just blocks em out
although 5900xt couldve been cool if it was priced and named properly (5950 non x)
mainly the first bit though
those skus don't count
I swear these fuckin' companies try to make part naming not make sense
it's absolutely bat shit
XT should be for fuckin' GPUs
X is a CPU thang
didn't one of those change the core count
5900XT
i stopped paying attention
is a 5950 non-x
ah, ok
(a chip that doesnt exist)
why amd didnt just fucking call it that? who knows
AMD: hold my beer
9070 XT Merc
I had a dream I bought this for $600 and thought I was stupid
what do these cost, $100?
self aware ig
like $160
I had a real dream last night that two random monkeys broke out of the zoo then stayed in our neighborhood
I was so distraught I think I actually decided I was gonna send it back that's something I've never had to come to terms with before
Rx 5700xt is cheaper 
buy a 5090
if you don’t buy a 5090 you don’t deserve pc gaming, buy an Xbox
/j maybe probably
what if i buy a ps5
PS5 is just worse
what if i buy a nex playground
shittttttttt
Is there a way to use pc gamepass on Linux? Does anyone know? Would be interesting to see what you could play on a steam deck
sure. install windows
simple search, but it appears "yes" with some heavy caveats
i don’t think you could possibly install any games given the xbox app uses the most convoluted installation method on earth to lock you out of doing anything sketchy
What not $180 Chromebook+gamepass+GeForce now
You’re so right
what about 1080Ti+4790K+xbox 360
i would rather use the 360 over the 1080ti machine
i7 4790k turns 12 in May 
I would giveeee you the worldddd
go 4690k go
I contacted Dell directly for help lmao
No it doesn't,,,,,
My bad 12
and that's the refresh, the 4700's were 2013
keep me safe, Premium. https://www.dexerto.com/youtube/youtube-ads-are-about-to-get-even-longer-and-theyll-be-unskippable-3332420/
Who even pays for premium when you have ad block
many people, myself included. best thing ever.
okay so what you do with premium
don't get ads on any device and don't have to fuck around with shitty extensions that break playback half the time
the only reason I would buy it is bec YT runs kinda slow with ad blockers
you called
Can’t you download the videos too
plus, support the creators I watch on the platform where I spend 95% of my watchtime
I think this is not even worth discuting lmao
Why
I’m intrigued I might get it
to give my condolences
My next build (when I can afford it) is going to be a Ryzen APU itx sff system in a Jonsbo C6-itx or some similar case
i have decided
yeah that kinda thing is unacceptable. i'll happily pay for the convience of not having to muck around with youtube adblockers. Plus it works across your whole account, so any device. Youtube Music is included so you don't have to pay for spotify
Yeah it’s W and you can download the videos right?
If I have to start killing subscriptions, my YT Premium will be the last one
I think you can download them, yes. I still haven't found a reason to do that though
I do for edits but yh
I cancelled premium at some point but have considered resubscribing because of the higher bitrate options
I use other apps for that but if it’s fast on premium then why not
It's 5.99 a month iirc
For the benefits I can get, like higher Bitrate 1080p, it's honestly worth it
Especially helpful when watching on a 1440p monitor
Ill take the higher bitrate, but I already have RTX VSR upscaling anything to 4K anyway
The 1080p already looks a little worse for wear, so getting decent bitrate is great
VSR?
Visual Scaling..
Video Scaling..
Errrr
I haven’t had to do an adblock workaround on youtube for like a year and a half
idk what you guys are dealing with
Higher bitrate? Is that for every video??
Oh Video Super Resolution
upscaling doesn't help if the video looks garbage already at its original resolution
or only those high quality ones
https://vietnamnews.vn/economy/1733182/online-ads-must-be-skippable-within-5-seconds-under-new-regulations.html set vpn to nam
Video Super Resolution? Video upscaling that just works across any browser based player.
I think it's only for the videos that support it
don't have a VPN
bec it’s soo slow and annoying with Adblock
wdym fast
What do you mean fast?
Like when I click a video it takes a short while to load up
Uh, yeah you click a video and it starts playing
i found out how to insta skip YT ads on my apple tv so its ok
That's neat
Will definitely consider a lower power / budget RTX card for my media PC if that's the case
It runs slow
@steel stream when are you ognna get the new lg g6?
I wouldn't hold my breath on quadro generally
I believe it was added.
i probably won't unless i can get it for like $500
Also the YT music would come in handy when I’m at the gym or excersing instead of being on YouTube itself
Or scrolling at home
YAY
yep. its basically a Spotify interface, just music
W
Well, it's the card that will be on the Thinking Pad
P53, 4K screen, i7-9850H, T2000
I didn't realize it was added to Turing so thats neat
Well tbf, DLSS 4.5 is compatible with Turing, so I'd assume something like this would be supported
FWIW, its really only certified to work in Chromium based browsers. Chrome and Edge, primarily. Others may have workarounds but I've never bothered to look.
I also use MPC-HC for local video playback and it has a setting to trigger VSR upscaling too, which is neat.
holy shit, I just made the mistake of going to Performance-PCs on Firefox?
It runs like shit
Performance-PCs?
That's fine, I primarily use Opera GX anyway
watercooling parts
Oh that's awesome
Local upscaling too!!
Oh
brother AKN got the G5 last year and the G6 is just a polished version of the same TV
this is a TV upgrade year for me though
idk if i’ll get C6 or G6 but one of those
OH OH @edgy laurel
I could take advantage of RTX VSR by placing an RTX 2060 or 3050 in the secondary PCIe slot of the Aurora R7 Z370
Both PCIe x16 slots are wired at x8 anyways, so I am not losing any performance
Connect both cards to an HDMI / DP hub, with one output to a primary monitor
You could. Do you plan to use a 4K screen? Thats where its really beneficial, considering there still so many YT channels that upload in 1080p
If I want to watch videos or such, I can switch output
I have a 1440p monitor
Ok. Frankly I have no idea how beneficial it would be at that point
The 4K upscaling will be beneficial on the P53 that has a 4K screen in it
isn’t the 2060 roughly equivalent to a 1080 non ti
I believe so, yeah
so just rock the 2060 then
sell both of those and get a new rtx card fr
so, AMD apparently has its own video upscaling feature built into Adrenalin. I've never heard a single positive thing about it
I want to keep the Dell 1080
I don't have many positive experiences with Adrenalin
ain't that the truth lmao
man
huh, hit me that i no longer own an AMD GPU
holy shit me neither
also hit me that i sold my only backup GPU
welp, its iGPU for me if my card dies
Wait you don't have a backup?!
(backups)
They're great for budget but not for software
My 5700xt is my backup
i actually have an ATI card if we''re counting that as amd
I installed Medal for all my clipping needs
i got rid of my HD 7950 so
I only use Adrenalin for drivers
I had my RX6600 but its gone now
What a shit Software
adrenalin still doesnt open for my roomie on my 7800xt 3/4 of the time
although 9000 series seems to have a driver branch that fixes it
adrenalin, geforce experience, same shit different fart.
no because gfe opens
adrenaline genuinely does not 3/4 of the time on most computers with it
adrenalin opens all the time
pepe so out of it he thinks GFE is still a thing
i know its a new name now but i call it geforce experience out of spite
i think theres about 100 million messages here complaining about my adrenalin not opening
thats fair
GeForce Experience is actually responsive
though, the NVApp always opens for me
yall have never used a computer and it shows
When I open GeForce Overlay it doesn't fucking delay inputs
click the fucking tray icon
people dont know how tray icons work anymore
society is doomed
And NVidia's also spit out plenty of shitty drivers, especially over the last year or so, so... y'know
You know what happens when I open Adrenalin?
It works at first, but then each scroll or click has a 3 second delay
yeah but none of them have stopped my computer from working personally, so
thats the thing. with adrenalin, often nothing would happen. Double click it, right click it, nothing. Have to kill the process and relaunch it.
It doesn't work if I try to use it when it automatically starts up
this is definitely a skill issue i never get that, in fact it opens all the time at the most inconvenient times
I need to kill it then open it manually for it to work
because the default keybind is Alt + R which is "self-cast ultimate" in league of legends
on first boot it takes a while to be "ready" to show
yeah
"That doesn't happen on my machine"
spinny icon of doom
no but it doesnt so its a skill issue, the only difference is skill and i have a lot of it
and personlly I've been using adrenaline for... 2? 3? years straight and haven't had a single issue yet
idk me and guilty and a bunch of othe r people i asked when i had my 7800xt all said we had the same issue
all with the same fix
mike certainly did too, same no launch issue I think
my 7900 XT has been fine
Is Intel Software better
my 7800xt was also dogshit for other reasons
no
well the softwrae itself yeah but even amd has better drivers than intel
I'd assume so because they've been doing shit for longer than the 1982 invasion of Lebanon
i went to chinatown and ate some weird rice noodle beef slop from a cart it was good it was also $4.00
</3
Fuck
I have absolutely no idea how current Intel software is. I only remember its 1.0 for A series was hilariously bad
b580 was fine for me when i used it but i dont use it anymore
3/23/2023 I bought the 7900 XT
I heard their new drivers are decent for both Alchemist & Battlemage
wasn't the first launch not even a window, but just some weird overlay
had mine for a year, issues persisted the entire time, sold it
guys, anyone uses signalrgb?
Lmao?
?
Only fine because amd hates us amd gpu buyers by not giving fsr4 to older card
?
obviously people do use it, try asking a useful question
or they didn't think far enough ahead to build in support
#tech-chat-1 bro already posted more info there than here
generally what happens, still mad they killed the fury lineup way too early
Oh wait, thing to note
I can probably sell the Dell 1080 for ±110, and the RX 5700 XT for the same price
I can get a 6700 XT for $220
.. But I'd still be using Adrenalin
consider reading what the things say taking action accordingly
ok jarvis, compile amd drivers with fsr4 support with 7000 series gpus
Could you fill this out for me
And I also couldn't use DLSS 4.5
what can i do for this errors?
this is the rice noodle beef slop i was talkin about
literally exactly what it says
uninstall the programs conflicting with it and update signal
I can get a used 4060 for like 250-280
And get stinky non fsr4 upscaling
did you need us to read for you? i seriously dont get it
where do i search my running programs?
can you fill this tnx
DCv2.exe = MSI Dragon Center (or whatever it's called now.)
A really fuckin' simple google answered that
bro the fucking sentence itself answered it
open task manager via right clicking an empty spot on your task bar
then the aptly named "search box" at the top
that does not look very apetising to me
the world runs on slop
microslop
sawzall can saw all
can we make some sops for tc2 to copy paste to people
Have you been banned from the CoPilot Discord yet?
but like, seriously
never been there
i should contact my KAM for MS
"Dear Microslop"
no die or memory obv
Used not new 💔
yeah exactly
Or should I get a 2080 Ti for $200
avoid 2000 series like plauge if it has micron memory
