it would yes, but the 5800X3D and 5700X3D havent been available at reasonable prices for a very long time, and the problem has gotten significantly worse lately

[manic sigil]

Get faster GPU

[uneven vigil]

I got a 6900xt

Man fuck I’m still so sad I broke my i5 14600k

[manic sigil]

Upgrade that

[uneven vigil]

I could’ve had a really good pc by now 💔

[shell void]

i was just about to say that selling your am4 board and cpu to get an i5 14600k would be better than spending like $400+ on an AM4 cpu

[uneven vigil]

wait so why is the Ryzen 9 5950x barely better than Ryzen 5 5600x on user benchmark

[shell void]

userbenchmark is a meme, but the 5950x wont be any faster than the 5600x in 99.9% of games

[brisk jolt]

its a nice fit

[shell void]

your only real upgrades for gaming performance would be 5500x3d, 5600x3d, 5700x3d, or 5800x3d; all of which are very overpriced at the moment

not advisable

[uneven vigil]

Ryzen 5 5500x3d only 224$

[brisk jolt]

aint noone paying $200 for a 5500x3d tf

[shell void]

actually it looks like the 5500X3D isnt always faster than the 5600X because it has a huge clockspeed disadvantage, that's sad

further credence to the point that you shouldnt bother buying any more AM4 CPUs

[uneven vigil]

fuck

I just don’t feel like swapping out mobo, everytime I messed with a mobo bad things happened.

[brisk jolt]

yk what my chair is shit Im now gonna be a controller couch gamer

[shell void]

from what im seeing it's cheaper to get an Asus B760M-AYW WIFI D4 II, and an i5 14600KF new than it is to get a used 5700X3D

the 14600KF is a much better processor

even with DDR4 instead of DDR5

[uneven vigil]

Michael idk if you rmb me but

[merry stirrup]

just gonna bin memory today

[uneven vigil]

I broke my pc with a screw driver

Very long ago from valorant.

[shell void]

maybe just dont touch the computer at all if you cant hold a screwdriver ☠️

[brisk jolt]

oh its this uh latency dude again on some mouse stuff

[uneven vigil]

Will that motherboard fit in my pc?

[shell void]

i suddenly forgot all of my PC hardware knowledge

Uh I got a i9 14900k for 40)

[manic sigil]

That sounds like dead CPU

[frank zealot]

@topaz veldt got a q you might just know

Hp DL380 G7 uses ddr3 1066 or 1333 udimms.

I need to add more to a server that is on schedule for retirement later this year. I found 9x Samsung 1866 ddr3 ecc RDIMMs from other servers. Will they downclock if I put them in?

Samsung M393B5173QH0-CMA DIMMs

[uneven vigil]

Nope

I got my ways

[devout ridge]

sounds like the product of theft then

[uneven vigil]

I’m very very good at trading

[merry stirrup]

yes. idk if you can mismatch ecc and normal udimm in the same rig tho keep in mind

[devout ridge]

afaik it's one or the other

[brisk jolt]

you have hidden talent lets keep it hidden

[manic sigil]

Remember,those CPU had problems with dying

[frank zealot]

Ecc udimm actually

[pure garnet]

flops per second

[devout ridge]

"normal udimm"

[frank zealot]

It's running ecc udimms

[devout ridge]

so by "Hp DL380 G7 uses ddr3 1066 or 1333 udimms. " you meant ECC UDIMMs?

[frank zealot]

Yes, I left off the ecc

[uneven vigil]

Yeah I got it btw ezy pzy

I’m really good at trading items up value

I get free anything on a pc

[devout ridge]

definitely sounds like theft

[uneven vigil]

no bro I’m deadass

[devout ridge]

never said you were the one stealing them

[topaz veldt]

They will

@frank zealot what CPU(s) in itg

[topaz veldt]

So on the Dell equiv after like.... 12 DIMMs, it drops to the slowest anyway

[frank zealot]

it's ancient, but the box is going away later this year, I just want it to run slightly less like shit in the meantime

[topaz veldt]

I prob have like 5 R710s with 144GB in them

[frank zealot]

nice

[topaz veldt]

they were weird, they had 18 DIMM slots

[frank zealot]

Same here

Tri-channel RAM, because that was briefly a thing

If this works right, I'll be changing the server from 6GB to 36GB

Which should be waaaaay better

[turbid locust]

[merry stirrup]

9800x3d on -10

210w. pretty silly

[pure garnet]

wait @merry stirrup holy shit the x670e is already a state away

i may be rebuilding my pc tomorrow

[topaz veldt]

two different truck drivers for this project have asked me if thats an E30 BMW and if I want to sell it lol

[shell void]

God's Chariot is NOT FOR SALE

[topaz veldt]

It happens every time someone comes to the house

"Hey so here's your quote... btw is that an E30?"

[fervent chasm]

Well what car is it?

[topaz veldt]

It is an E30

[steel stream]

just a nissan

[fervent chasm]

Yah I could never tell, BMWs idk yet

[topaz veldt]

Its kind of an iconic silhouette

[fervent chasm]

All my European friends and family want BMWs so bad, I want to be different

And the insurance for it is crazy

My buddy pays $350/month for his BMW, with his parents on it also

I’m sure if it was just him it would be $500+/month

[turbid locust]

you have a problem

[fervent chasm]

By this I meant I wanted a Dodge Charger… until the gas prices went up 50% in 2 weeks

[turbid locust]

Kyoko needs more hardware so she doesn’t have to rebuild the daily thrice a week

Someone get this mf a testbench

[fervent chasm]

Set up a go fund me

[topaz veldt]

do what i do and just buy more pcs

[fervent chasm]

Not everyone has enough money to buy a 5090 every 2 weeks

wtf do you even do with all the PCs you build, are you hoarding for prices to increase or just sitting around?

[reef lance]

https://tenor.com/view/pc-smash-cpu-gif-9399687

[turbid locust]

One for each room and each kiddo

also Mrs 5nail

[fervent chasm]

Well from how often he posts pictures he must have 10 kids at least

[turbid locust]

2? I think?

[topaz veldt]

I buy them and then I leave them outside in the rain

[fervent chasm]

Give me an address I’ll pick em up after you do your rain tests

[fervent chasm]

Idk how people have more than 2

[merry stirrup]

yooo

[turbid locust]

Must not live in the US

[fervent chasm]

I am in the US

[turbid locust]

I know people with no job and 3 kids that make more money than me

[pure garnet]

the -e was purchased to fix the daily problem

[fervent chasm]

Well yah I’m sure it’s easy to live off of government aid but

That’s just not my thing

[turbid locust]

So was the last 3 boards

[pure garnet]

not true the mpower and ocf were just for the bit

[turbid locust]

I told my parents no grandkids till 6 figures in the bank account

[fervent chasm]

My plan was marry at 23 kids at 26

It’s kinda late but I don’t wanna have kids early, I’d like to travel with my wife for a bit

[turbid locust]

My parents were 31 and 32 when I was born I’m in no rush

[fervent chasm]

My mom was 21 and my dad 18 when they had me hahaha

I’m in no rush either

And then my sister happened 11 years after they had me

Such a weird age gap

[turbid locust]

I have siblings 10 years older than me

[steel stream]

see I am a twin, so one of us is a mistake

[turbid locust]

Closest in age to me is 7 years older

[young void]

28 with 4kids I am the tired

[steel stream]

21 and no kids that I know of

[fervent chasm]

I’m the fist generation that wasn’t bred like rabbits in my family

[steel stream]

mmm bread

[fervent chasm]

Before me, every other generation lived on farms in Poland and whatnot, so they had tons of kids

[hexed karma]

keeps that labor cheap or what

[fervent chasm]

More people to work around the farm, the labor wasn’t paid

[brisk jolt]

dude… I have a sibling 14 years younger than me

[turbid locust]

lol

[fervent chasm]

Their pay was living under a roof and food to eat

[hexed karma]

doesn't get much better than that tbh

[brisk jolt]

And technically another one 16 years tho we arent 100% blood related its a half brother

[turbid locust]

yeah but like 5090 tho

[fervent chasm]

I’m not built for hard labor, I have a lot of respect for my family that immigrated

I couldn’t do it the way they did

[steel stream]

no one is built for hard labor that's why it's hard

[fervent chasm]

Yah but it’s different when you grow up in it vs starting later in life

[hexed karma]

when i was a freshman i moved from a dense satellite city to a small farm in the mountains (basically just a cabin with some chickens and plants to keep food cheap) and even then the amount of labor to remain self sufficient was more than I was equipped to handle. chopping trees and splitting wood for fire, chickens for meat, etc it was nice and quiet but i understand why farmers are eager to get all the help they can

[fervent chasm]

That’s why they had so many kids on farms haha

I was on my grandparents farm in Poland for 2 months, we bought 100 chickens and had chicken noodle soup everyday

[hexed karma]

they had one son who still lived with them, he was in his 20s but was like 6'5 and ripped

[fervent chasm]

Yah my dad has that farm strength

Farm + dad strength

[hexed karma]

lethal combination

[edgy laurel]

speaking of 5080 Astral earlier. this exists.

[pure garnet]

yeah my wife wanted one

[verbal berry]

this is worth $2100

[pure garnet]

then we saw $3000

[wise bear]

if it wasnt miku themed but teal I'd want one

[edgy laurel]

I like the teal. I don't like this.

[wise bear]

same.

[hexed karma]

i like to think that i'm better than paying premium for a miku themed product but the temptation can be overwhelming

[edgy laurel]

might as well get the whole package for $9k

[wise bear]

when will we get the ability to pick colors in diff places like you can do on cablemod but for gpu shrouds and fans

[pure garnet]

buying the astral for the overkill pcb and then realizing you won't even hit the 450w limit from voltage

[hexed karma]

can't forget the monitor to go with the setup

[wise bear]

I hate anime.

well, no

some anime is good, but the fans are awful

[edgy laurel]

I don't hate it, but it doesn't interest me in the least.

[hexed karma]

there's some diamonds in the ruff but i don't understand how people can only consume it

[frank zealot]

Hatsune Miku is cool.
But I don't get why she's this popular

[brisk jolt]

Some are nice, alot are just 💩

Especially the romance ones like holy fkin shit they’re so corny

[vestal granite]

i have watched naruto and frieren and nothing else

[topaz veldt]

I love B&H

my Ergotron arm just came

[verbal berry]

shes been popular for like 20 years or something like that in japan

[frank zealot]

Frieren is GOATed.
There's plenty of great other series out there, too

[steel stream]

L'chaim!

[vestal granite]

yeah i only watch good anime and good animes are the ones that ive watched

[frank zealot]

and.... Naruto? 0.o

[vestal granite]

naruto is pinnacle of fiction

i watched every episode even the filler episodes

[hexed karma]

i think i messed up starting with 12 ep anime bc now anything with more than 2 seasons feels kinda excessive

[brisk jolt]

cosmic princess kaguya was lit

[frank zealot]

Some really are.
Fuck One Piece, specifically

If you're about to defend One Piece?
Fuck you, too 😛

[brisk jolt]

The only anime I could bare with multiple seasons are Initial D and Monogatari

[hexed karma]

LMAO and that's one that people swear by. I think about how much i put off breaking bad just to end up loving it and now I can't help but think OP could be a similar situation. might have to watch one pace or smth instead idk

[frank zealot]

there are plenty of multi-season anime that are 1000% worth it.
But a lot end up loaded with filler for no good reason

[hexed karma]

i loved monogatari but randomly dropped it during the basketball arc and haven't been able to pick it up again since

[frank zealot]

I've watched Naruto, I've watched Bleach, I've watched Black Clover

I am not going to dedicate a year and a half of my fucking life to watching one goddamned anime

[hexed karma]

my rule of thumb is if i can't binge it over a weekend then it's not at the top of my priorities

[brisk jolt]

I mean I could somewht barely tolerate danmachi but it did have its ups and downs

[frank zealot]

I love Danmachi. But I haven't caught up on the last 2 seasons yet

I was into the Gacha for a while, even

[verbal berry]

some mfs have like 1500 animes watched they arent even enjoying them at that point

they have like 25 on their watchlist at one time

[frank zealot]

This season I think I have 7 or 8?

[wraith steeple]

I would watch Bleach religously whenever [adult swim] would air it

[hexed karma]

when it goes from an enjoying pasttime to something they pride themselves on

[verbal berry]

i watch 1-2 episodes while at the gym doing cardio after a workout but ion rly watch anything at home

[frank zealot]

There are people with 1000+ PC Games completed who could be lumped the same way

[verbal berry]

yeah its ridiculous, its like they complete them to get the number up not out of enjoyment

[hexed karma]

real. i can hate on one piece all i want as if i dont have 5000 hours on counter strike

[frank zealot]

Don't ask me about fallout 4

[hexed karma]

safe to assume you beat the game 10x over and then some other play throughs with mods?

[frank zealot]

yes

I also like doing weird challenges in it, too

like Spiffing Brit does

[verbal berry]

its fallout 4 its justified

[hexed karma]

i can get that i kinda do the same thing with bo3 zombies. recently started trying to get high rounds and speedrun easter eggs or limit myself to a single weapon

[verbal berry]

i need to reinstall my bo3 that does sound fun

[hexed karma]

there's this mod that makes the game play like you just alerted a horde in left 4 dead, zombies spawning non stop with boosted stats leaving basically no room for a break

[cosmic gazelle]

hmm bg3 is quite playable on the 4.6ghz 4790k, didn’t expect that

[verbal berry]

i use this t7x shit so i get gobblegums and my pc cant get RCE'd

[hexed karma]

the goal is to do all the easter eggs then finish with the super easter egg on revalations for the 1mil xp since i've never gotten master prestige when i used to play on console

[hexed karma]

i'd use that but i want my stats to transfer to steam so i end up using ezboiii

more or less the same thing security-wise but i don't get the cool server lists and active players 😭

[frank zealot]

holy shit, I have never seen a comment with so many words say absolutely nothing:

"There is currently no official confirmation regarding a Season 2, but recent developments have led to growing speculation among fans. Industry patterns, ongoing popularity, and continued engagement suggest that a continuation remains a strong possibility.
While no release dates or production details have been announced, the current momentum surrounding the series indicates that a follow-up project could be under consideration. Fans are closely monitoring updates, waiting for an official statement from the production team.
Until confirmation is made, expectations remain cautious but optimistic. If the current trajectory continues, a Season 2 announcement could be a realistic outcome in the near future."

what is this in reference to

will an anine that just wrapped S1 get an S2.

I need to know where to leave a 1 star review on Google maps

[merry stirrup]

i already sent it

[hoary hatch]

I'm going to ruin your company on yelp, too

[pure garnet]

nia posted

🔥🔥🔥

immediately into automatic repair

that’s certainly a new one

[merry stirrup]

micron a die did that at 5800 c42

may as well try 8400 too

[pure garnet]

so the msi windows logo is just gone

[merry stirrup]

if it does 8400 i’ll buy the cpu lowkey

[hoary hatch]

Floppa do you have early 270k access

[merry stirrup]

soon

on the way

somethin like 10 of the 2 skus

[turbid locust]

It’s just kinda hard to justify more ram when I kinda already have the goat kit

[merry stirrup]

idk pcb differences and you certainly can bin harder

i have 150 kits of just this stuff to go through, i’m certain there is going to be much better dimms than what you have

[pure garnet]

floppa this board auto’d cl63

i didn’t know it even went that high

[turbid locust]

I wouldn’t mind non-CUDIMM H24M for Ryzen but otherwise I’m lowkey fine

[merry stirrup]

yeah :)

[turbid locust]

my greensticks that are sometimes locked sometimes not depending on board are fine for daily

[pure garnet]

i technically want a better pcb h24m set but i also realistically do not care because going above 8000 does nothing

[turbid locust]

H16M is in the NAS

[merry stirrup]

we have arrived at termination hell

[fervent chasm]

They’re manufacturer locked?

[merry stirrup]

8200 won’t even bios 😭

idk i have mcr off maybe it’ll take forever like the old days

[turbid locust]

OEM PMIC locked, kind of. Some boards can unlock the PMIC and some can’t.

[fervent chasm]

That’s like the stupid CPUs with OEM lock

[turbid locust]

start with cpu PU and PD

[merry stirrup]

did you see the board i’m on

[turbid locust]

set like 43 PU and “high” PD

[merry stirrup]

i’m not doing terms on an msi vc bro

[turbid locust]

yeah

[turbid locust]

it’s two settings

[merry stirrup]

if i buy the chip i will do terminations in your mpower bro

[hoary hatch]

Okay ignore my name for a second
Anyone know what time 270k goes on sale on Thursday

Otherwise I assume 6am pacific

[pure garnet]

floppa can you talk some sense into loong nia

[turbid locust]

do I want a 9950X or two 9700X’s

[pure garnet]

it doesn’t wanna boot 8400 today

[merry stirrup]

i will ask if i can play with one because i have a friend w/one

[pure garnet]

how many do they have

[nova patrol]

bros aio got aura

[hoary hatch]

I'm going with 6am pacific

[pure garnet]

no way they actually use them

bro they got me in 5600 gear 2 now

[shell void]

i don't know, but it's almost always 6:00 or 6:30 PST

[turbid locust]

Kinda thinking about back tracking on selling my Intel stuff

[merry stirrup]

okay i did it cause i love you

8400 with mac’s garbage

let’s see if it posts

yes

[cosmic gazelle]

yo i just had a thought

[hoary hatch]

I'm getting up early, aren't I

[turbid locust]

I just need to accept my chips probably just can’t do the bleeding edge of what’s usual and do a proper tune at whatever they can do

[cosmic gazelle]

am i actually getting anything from running my fclk at 2167 instead of 2067 with 6200 ram

it’s stable i just don’t know if it matters

[turbid locust]

2167 is better

[merry stirrup]

let it cook

[turbid locust]

I know some AM5 gear 2 sauce

[shell void]

https://klipy.com/gifs/pika-nod-yes

[merry stirrup]

speed is unimportant past verification in this stage

esp since i’m not binning the ram, we all know h24m will do 8400

[turbid locust]

Yeah

[fervent chasm]

Are you in a warehouse

[pure garnet]

well someone here will find a way

[turbid locust]

My 9850X3D boots 8400 but is very angry

[merry stirrup]

well this is already better and it’s a 4dimmer

[turbid locust]

Maybe doable with full set terms but

[pure garnet]

pu 43.6 made it worse on this pcb

[turbid locust]

From what I’ve seen AM5 chips sweet spot PU and PD mad hard

[hoary hatch]

This new CPU better quality for Intel holiday bundle

[turbid locust]

like you have to find the ones the specific chip likes or it just won’t do it

[pure garnet]

this is a crappy b850 so probably 6 layer

[fervent chasm]

More layers is better or worse?

[pure garnet]

better

[turbid locust]

Like my 9850X3D likes 40 Ohm PU. One step up or down and it’ll error

[fervent chasm]

What do higher end have, like 9?

[merry stirrup]

mine is the same no?

[pure garnet]

idk i just know the mlg is worse than the tommy mem wise

[turbid locust]

afaik most chips are ok with relatively high PD’s. Most are fine at 480 Ohm or “High”

[fervent chasm]

I still can’t believe my 13900kf did better than my 285k, such a skill issue

[turbid locust]

I think I’m gonna throw an AM4 chip in my B550 Strix and throw that in the NAS. I want to revisit my 7700x in the Gene

[merry stirrup]

86 time

[turbid locust]

lmao wtf

5nail ahh bin

Aida numbers?

[merry stirrup]

what’s crazy is that this is just the qa computer

[hoary hatch]

Occt enterprise 😎

[merry stirrup]

idk if i wanna install aida on it ill bring a portable install on a usb tomorrow

[fervent chasm]

Wait is that what you guys spend all your money on? A bunch of ram kits and see which ones are good, keep those, sell the rest?

[merry stirrup]

lol in a little bit yeah but no

[turbid locust]

Some people do this but we just bin what we have and have fun

[merry stirrup]

fuck you tho

[fervent chasm]

I’m not hating

Just wondering :P

[hoary hatch]

Waifu power supply is lit

[cosmic gazelle]

floppa are you specifically just binning cpus for how high of a frequency they’ll post

[merry stirrup]

yeah i wanna buy a nia

memory frequency i don’t care about ryzen cpu oc

[fervent chasm]

I would get one of those anime on something but my gf would get annoyed lol

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah that’s what i meant

[merry stirrup]

not post but sure

[pure garnet]

i know one

[cosmic gazelle]

if it’ll fully boot into windows will it stabilize with the right timings? or are there some speeds that can boot but will never be stable

[fervent chasm]

This case was sick tho

[merry stirrup]

probably not

[cosmic gazelle]

i could boot 2133 on the z97 but i couldn’t stabilize it but im also dumb and dont know a lot about stabilizing memory lol

[merry stirrup]

gotta fafo

8600 posts

this is is likely one of the best chips in the world atp LOL

[cosmic gazelle]

bro got his chip from the big yahu

[shell void]

you might have found a sugi0lover bin

[merry stirrup]

well if it’s on this board, i did

[odd sable]

wtf, all the mlg waifu stuff?

[fervent chasm]

Or floppa just tunes better

Not luck pure skill

[cosmic gazelle]

is bro even tuning rn tho

[fervent chasm]

I don’t think so

[cosmic gazelle]

sounds like hes just pressing a higher number

[turbid locust]

bro lol

[merry stirrup]

it’s ok not to understand

[cosmic gazelle]

i haven’t been keeping track of this conversation i’m not trying to throw shade man lol

[merry stirrup]

i have lied it autoed somehow back to 6000 1:1

okay 8400 stabilize time

[pure garnet]

yeah i thought i got back into windows at 8400 and it was actually 5600 gear 2.

[merry stirrup]

😭holy crap

okay mac it’s occting this one is 4 u

1 hour on the clock

[pure garnet]

i reset cmos and didn’t have a profile setup

[cosmic gazelle]

man has not experienced greater pain than this

[merry stirrup]

i don’t even setup orofiles

i just remember i won’t lie 😭

[cosmic gazelle]

cuz you can actually remember what you put in

some of us just guess and don’t know what they’re actually entering

[merry stirrup]

😭

[fervent chasm]

This is the way

Reminds me of the AI OC that worked for 10 minutes

[pure garnet]

i’m not remembering fan speeds

[merry stirrup]

if you have a good board fan profiles persist through resets

[pure garnet]

well we know what board we have don’t we

[merry stirrup]

true

nearly 10m in on 8400

[fervent chasm]

Mine don’t persist after CMOS reset

[frank cypress]

hmmm might be doing a shit trade on fbm

4070 + a bit on top for a turding titan

anything for the aura 🥀

[pure garnet]

back to turding?

[frank cypress]

the aura tho

[fervent chasm]

I’m gonna use my extra SSD for a fresh windows install so I don’t keep breaking my windows when I OC anything

[frank cypress]

it's so real

[fervent chasm]

I’ve bricked like 5 installs without backups

[pure garnet]

oh i mean you might actually use the vram

[frank cypress]

oh i definitely will

[pure garnet]

how much on top

[frank cypress]

waiting to see

if he asks more than like $100 then i'll probably pass

They're finally shutting down Sora

I guess that this might happen sometime since it costs so much more to produce videos that really aren't worth it and OpenAI is hemorraging money, but damn... I thought they'd crash and burn before they actually shut it down

Maybe a sign for things to come

[low sorrel]

This bag is made of paper:

Packaged in plastic:

[brave panther]

how do you think paper straws are packaged?

[pallid marsh]

In steel cans duh

[fervent chasm]

A lot of my Amazon packages are paper wrapped in plastic

[reef lance]

McDonalds wraps their plastic straws in paper. You could put the paper straw in a paper wrapping and then in a cardboard box.

Paper straws are dogshit, though

They are the worst solution.

I don't care if we get rid of plastic straws as long as we actually come up with a decent alternative, I hate single use plastics.

[fervent chasm]

What about pure wood straws? Those would last a bit longer no?

And some kind of safe coating so it doesnt soak in liquid

[hoary hatch]

W

I cannot wait for the collapse

[brave panther]

how about this

[fervent chasm]

I already do thst

[brave panther]

i havent used a fucking stupid ass straw in a decade+

[fervent chasm]

I have purchased a pack of water in probably a year

We have filtered water at home at the sink and huge metal bottles

[pallid marsh]

Splinter straws 🔥

[fervent chasm]

I said add a coating after that, would double as anti soak and stop splintering/touching the wood directly

[vestal granite]

bamboo straws

bamboo straws are the superior straw

or perhaps wheat straws

[pallid marsh]

People are allergic to gluten

Straws made from Chicken bones

[vestal granite]

hmmm

i think every cup should have a straw built into it

for example, coffee cups with the lid, thats basically a straw

[pallid marsh]

People should just grow up and not use straws unless they physically need to

[fervent chasm]

Like I said, been without straws for years

Idk why people need them

[vestal granite]

its better for yer teeths

coffee will stain your teeths right but if u straw the coffee it wont

and some peoples teeths are more susceptible to staining than others

[pallid marsh]

I don't need coffee I have legally prescribed drugs

[pure garnet]

is 6000cl48 barrens of micron @merry stirrup

[turbid locust]

Def

I don’t think 6000c30 is guaranteed Hynix anymore

Pretty sure Samsung has an ic that can do that now

[pure garnet]

oh yeah it's 1.1v thats 100% micron

[turbid locust]

@pure garnet @merry stirrup considering holding onto my z890 shit

[pure garnet]

i was looking at a parts list for someone and seeing a cas latency that high confused me

[pure garnet]

im gonna hold onto my z890 master but i don't really want the ocf anymore

[turbid locust]

I still may sell or trade z790

[shell void]

don’t want the scuffed oc board? xD

[pure garnet]

the only redeeming quality of the ocf is the memory, and my cpu can't do the funny memory

[turbid locust]

I think I would trade my board and 14900K for a high binned H24M non CUDIMM kit

[shell void]

(i would also rather have the master for a secondary pc because it’s a nicer board)

[pure garnet]

so it's just shitty bios torture chamber for the cpu to blow up the windows install in 30s of 9000 testing

[pure garnet]

what im thinking when i get the asus board setup in my desktop is i'll move my second pc from 7800x3d to 265k + master

[merry stirrup]

built this one

[pure garnet]

radeon :\ that psu placement is odd

[merry stirrup]

it’s a fractal clone

[pure garnet]

are these build to order or preset

[merry stirrup]

50/50

[pure garnet]

i like how i said the same thing twice

[merry stirrup]

you did indeed but i got it

[pure garnet]

brain no worky

[merry stirrup]

but this one is preset i think yeah

[pure garnet]

i think if you run pbo off the msi board doesn’t do the wacko pcie thing

[fervent chasm]

Why Radeon

Put arc

Or the waifus you have

Or are those saved for the private builds that we don’t see

[pallid marsh]

Can you still manually shut off the psu or is the switch hidden

[civic reef]

Arc!! ARC!!! ARC!!!!

[merry stirrup]

hidden

@turbid locust surely possible to stabilize, next

[turbid locust]

Maybe. I’ve seen chips just not do a given speed no matter what.

[merry stirrup]

yeah and they barely post

[pure garnet]

considering he's on the crappy b850 with no heatsinks that's a good result imo

[merry stirrup]

it has em

i’ll see if 8200 work tho ig

[pure garnet]

oh wait half a heatsink

[topaz veldt]

Thankfully they are properly licensed for enterprise

@merry stirrup use packing tape - electrical tape on that rubber breaks it down it gets mad slimy

[merry stirrup]

i cannot change their whole workflow they want specifically e tape

[topaz veldt]

yuck - maybe propose it if you have a chance, have taken it apart a year later and its the grossest greasiest slimiest goop

[merry stirrup]

i shall

[topaz veldt]

it gets so slimy and broken down the tape doesn't do anything after a bit since its like greasy

[merry stirrup]

ddr5-8400 doesn’t work

well i mean it made it 30m so i wont complain

let’s see if 8200 can validate

might seriously ask to buy this chip lol

[low sorrel]

I remember when I was 4 and did that my parents said and I quote

"Don't pick your nose or your going to get distracted, trip, fall onto concrete and crack your skull open and die."

[topaz veldt]

And god damnit they were right

[low sorrel]

Yes they were and that's why I'm like this now

[topaz veldt]

I am not sure which way you are

is your skull fractured or are you deathly afraid of touching your nose

I want to go home

[merry stirrup]

haha fuck you

[merry stirrup]

so i get SI pricing on future purchases

[trim agate]

8 more hours of sitting around

[merry stirrup]

so real tho

[trim agate]

No like I don’t have my work laptop yet so I’m literally just sitting at my desk on my phone rotting away

[merry stirrup]

i do that but the opposite it’s nice

pretty much can always do something i enjoy but it’s like, my job

if i wanna build a puter i can go build a puter

if i wanna take one apart i can take one apart

[trim agate]

I wanna build a puter

[merry stirrup]

if i wanna fix one i go fix one

and so on

[trim agate]

I’m supposedly getting my laptop today hopefully I get to actually do stuff

[merry stirrup]

also i like a smaller case

got these in today

looking at the contacts these are prolly owned by an ocer or something

jawns are ran thru. had to have been slotted a million times

[torpid cargo]

mmm redline

[merry stirrup]

they do this

[pure garnet]

might be a crazy take but i like the z890 master more than the z890 hero

[wraith steeple]

Is it though?

[pure garnet]

hero heatsinks just look weird

cramped socket

[merry stirrup]

i saw a hero irl today and disagree

I just can't force myself to buy Asus

[merry stirrup]

yeah dawg you treat yourself to buying asus tf

[icy mortar]

ummmm

[icy mortar]

floppaaaa what monitor do you have?

[merry stirrup]

asrock 360hz 1440p oled

[icy mortar]

okay good

what type of OLED technology?

[merry stirrup]

https://klipy.com/gifs/jgmm-monkey-think

[icy mortar]

🥹

[merry stirrup]

@shell void

its qdoled right

[shell void]

yeh

[icy mortar]

thing is I did get an OLED recently and tbh im pretty worried over burn-in since...I do kinda regularly use static UI games and apps sometimes so im using 60% brightness although 100% is kinda nicer due to the lower nits over the entire panel,

mines got 4th gen qdoled and I have no idea as to when burn in appears and stuff

[pure garnet]

reminder offsets mean nothing because it’s vbios dependent

[icy mortar]

@shell void do you have any idea 🥹 ?

[topaz veldt]

zzzz

[hoary hatch]

I use 100% brightness on my QD-OLED and haven't noticed any burn in yet

[merry stirrup]

buy?

[hoary hatch]

I use static UI but my overall hours in 1.5 years isn't that many

[icy mortar]

wellll

1. total hours?
2. how mixed are you using it? some static stuff?

[hoary hatch]

My guess is 300 panel refresh cycles and I'm pretty good at letting it refresh every 4 hours

My display doesn't list actual hours

Almost entirely gaming

[icy mortar]

huhhh? dam

[hoary hatch]

Some static game UI but nothing too significant

[icy mortar]

300*4 theeen...1200 hours? really not alot at all tho

😭

[hoary hatch]

Ugh I have to power on my fucking PC to check the panel cycles kill me

[hoary hatch]

I was way off

[icy mortar]

lmao

[shell void]

dont worry about it

just leave all the protections enabled, and use the monitor like normal, but dont leave it on for hours for no reason when youre away from your desk

[merry stirrup]

the asrock doesnt even give you any details

[hoary hatch]

Let's call it 800 panel hours

[shell void]

even if you have mild burn-in 5 years from now itll still look substantially better than a brand new LCD monitor so it's genuinely the least relevant downside of OLED

[icy mortar]

i have hidden taskbar and monitor off after 5 minutes (in windows settings) anyways since im already paranoid ngl, but im worried if I do like a few hours of static stuff daily 😭 (like blender for instance where the UI stays the same)

[hoary hatch]

Stop being worried and just use it

[shell void]

the other downsides like low fullscreen brightness, abnormal subpixel layouts, grey uniformity on w-oled, ambient contrast on qd-oled, etc are far more relevant downsides

i consider burn-in a non-issue

[hoary hatch]

MUB has very little burn in overall with his torture test

[shell void]

i spend most of my time with half my screen showing discord, and the other half showing youtube with mostly static GUI

and i dont hide my taskbar

and i go out of my way to purposefully disable protection features, but i havent had issues

[icy mortar]

not hiding task bar is wild

[icy mortar]

how many hours?

ill just put brightness to 100 then

[hoary hatch]

Full brightness is worth it unless it's hurting your eyes

[icy mortar]

ill probably leave it 80-100%, but 60 is a tad low

[topaz veldt]

my one

my other 🙂

[shell void]

i use 100% pixel brightness with uniform brightness enabled

i have almost 4K hours on the LG C4 and over 10K on my LG A2, both with zero notable burn-in despite having all protection features disabled

[icy mortar]

ohhhh for some reason i disabled uniform brightness

whats it do?

[hoary hatch]

Make sure to clean the screen with steel wool

[icy mortar]

jesus way darker

[shell void]

the only OLED that ive managed to burn-in is my iphone 13 pro max which i was averaging 7 hours of screentime, most of which being outdoors at max brightness

[icy mortar]

i personally use a brick

[hoary hatch]

https://tenor.com/view/sponge-bob-brick-sponge-bob-square-pants-like-a-bag-of-bricks-like-a-ton-of-bricks-gif-4475886

[shell void]

but even with pretty severe burn-in it still looked way better than any LCD

[icy mortar]

its kinda the same as with it off and 60 brightness lol

[shell void]

im light sensitive so i dont really need anything more than 200nits uniform

if you like brightness then running it non-uniform will boost it a lot

[cosmic gazelle]

it’s not an offset i just said -50 because it was easier

[pure garnet]

+30 core is

[cosmic gazelle]

that isn’t either

it was 1100mv 1393mhz 2040mhz

[icy mortar]

alright i checked, ill rather use it off/80% since it seems to limit peak brightness for highlights, thanks for your advice on stuff I worry a bit less now

[shell void]

now that ive downsized my monitor i think DLSS 4.5 Performance looks fantastic

pretty hard to tell the difference when im not leaning forward like a goblin

DLSS shortcomings were a lot more obvious with the LG C4 42"

[icy mortar]

dude I just turned my old IPS on (1440p27") , now it all looks so fucking pixelated even text or wallpapers, and so smeary/blurry too (im on 4k27" now)

[shell void]

yeh if you enable uniform brightness then you drop down from 450 peak to 250

[icy mortar]

isnt peak 1k?

[shell void]

not in SDR

[icy mortar]

ohhh right, I forgot kinda

[shell void]

1440p looks genuinely atrocious after you get used to 2160p xD

[icy mortar]

the thing is since the 4K one is the same size its even worse 😭 like so much more PPI

[shell void]

https://klipy.com/gifs/pika-nod-yes

4K life is good

though it's very frustrating that they won't give us more than 240Hz

[hoary hatch]

I hate that sink

[low sorrel]

My gear came

[low sorrel]

It sucks

[topaz veldt]

There is a lot of hydrogen peroxide there

[low sorrel]

NGL this washroom is just used to store cleaning supplies

[icy mortar]

I was super confused when I saw my monitors "ELMB" setting 😭 they were too lazy to remove it ig

[merry stirrup]

FUCK

270K+ hits 5.8ghz according to skatter

god DAMNIT

70$ for 300mhz im doin it

[low sorrel]

what that mean

[merry stirrup]

i hit 5.5 if im lucky on like 4 cores at most or something

[shell void]

there's probably a wide range of silicon quality because it's replacing both 265K and 285K, and the 290K Plus was cancelled

but the newegg trade-in seems like a nobrainer to me if you dont mind going to UPS

[merry stirrup]

dude ill buy 3

you do realise i get to bin them before i buy now right?

boss especially does not care about intel

cpus arent any cheaper but a nice binned cpu would be epic

[merry stirrup]

ill just trade in for credit and then buy @ work cause otherwise i dont think ill get 230+$

[shell void]

idk if newegg lets you tradein without buying a new cpu at the same time

but i imagine you can find a way to sell your 265K

[merry stirrup]

if i return the newegg 270K+ wtf is they gonna do

send me my cpu back?

😭

[shell void]

naw im saying if youre buying your 270K from your work then i dont think youll be able to do the newegg trade-in

i think they require you to buy a new CPU from newegg to do it

[pure garnet]

you get a credit after purchase so if you return it you just get gift card balance probably

[merry stirrup]

perhaps

[pure garnet]

your cpu isn’t coming back though

it’s the same deal where if i returned my 17 pro they don’t fish my 15 pro max back

[shell void]

but if you dont mind the effort of having to sell the 265K then yeah a personally binned 270K sounds fun

[pure garnet]

id just have a gift card

[merry stirrup]

thats the goal

i will take the sto credit if its 230$ lol

[shell void]

imagine they just ban your account and nuke your credit

[merry stirrup]

LOL

idk nobody here wants one

so that takes away the factor of an easy sale

@turbid locust 265k 9133 bin 4 u?

[brisk jolt]

sorry he’s only gay to ryzen

[merry stirrup]

he said earlier he wants to keep his intel

[topaz veldt]

i need to sell shit

[merry stirrup]

so

i need older generations still

hmu just sayyin

[pure garnet]

either my copy of the movie is bad or my local network is fried

[merry stirrup]

wanna join mine? 😭

[pure garnet]

bc i keep getting occasional lockups in jellyfin playback on these star wars rips

[indigo walrus]

Or whatever you're transcoding the media with is choking on the transcode.

[merry stirrup]

prolly direct play tho

[pure garnet]

it's direct playing

okay i checked with a transcode and it's playing back fine

so apparently the a17 pro and the a15 in my atv just are getting cooked

[merry stirrup]

idk my jelly been doin that too as of recent

[pure garnet]

the 7500t goes to 30% use just for 1 client

[merry stirrup]

ITS TIIIME

cant wait to buy hw off you then watch my 13900KS get demoted to shitting itself

[pure garnet]

isn't this fairly tame for a file though

[merry stirrup]

22mbit idk seems light

[pure garnet]

nah it is not time

ideally im not replacing the 7500t till i move out

because then i'll have room for a proper nas

[merry stirrup]

youre telling me the nightstand setup iosnt optimal

[floral spear]

Finally got my dream peripherals

[pure garnet]

so i disabled hardware acceleration and it stopped stuttering

but it's still direct playing?

[merry stirrup]

price?

[floral spear]

all in total or?

[merry stirrup]

mouse and keyboard bro

[floral spear]

310$

[merry stirrup]

damn

[floral spear]

Wooting80 HE and Teevolution Terra Pro with the Screen Addon

[pure garnet]

was the mouse most of it

[merry stirrup]

i hope not

[merry stirrup]

49g thing

[pure garnet]

laser etched caps and polycarb case should not be $310

[floral spear]

nah actually its the wooting thats the most

it was 180

[merry stirrup]

GOD DAMN

[floral spear]

the terra was just 120

[merry stirrup]

120 for a 49g mouse is brazy

keebs i get and the wooting is just super popular blah blah

[floral spear]

🤷

[brisk jolt]

he’s on the ghost abs btw

[torpid cargo]

I don't like my ATV because of DV issues

[pallid marsh]

looks like your going into a clean room

[pure garnet]

i’ve yet to run into any problems with it

[pure garnet]

correction: it was off and turning it on fixed it

[torpid cargo]

doesn't support certain DV profiles

ahh neither does Jellyfin, makes sense why you would have no issues

Plex has better DV support

[topaz veldt]

Plex does not support DV

[pure garnet]

i could just play the files directly with the client i’m using if i wanted to

from the sounds of google proper profile 7 support requires special hardware

fire stick/shield drop down to mel

[torpid cargo]

plex definitely supports DV

[topaz veldt]

Nope - its using the HDR10 profile

[pure garnet]

i fail to see how the glorified file server i’m using would affect the abilities of the client i’m using

[topaz veldt]

https://forums.plex.tv/t/transcode-dolby-vision/935235

Definitely does not

[pure garnet]

if the tv/box/app all had dv support why would it not just play dv

[whole yoke]

does anyone know a really good gpu that would be perfect for my ryzen 7 5700x3d cpu? i have 32gb of 3600mhz ddr4 ram (its overclocked to 4000mhz) and currently i have an nvidia rtx 3060 but i don't mind switching to amd if its better. budget is maybe max 1000 dollars

[topaz veldt]

it will only work in direct play

[pure garnet]

that’s what i mean yeah

[topaz veldt]

but if its the only profile in the file it will fail

It'll have purple colors

[torpid cargo]

Definitely works

[topaz veldt]

It does not support it, no it's playing HDR10

[pure garnet]

the best gpu in your budget

[topaz veldt]

It will only direct play

and even then it will not always direct play properly

[torpid cargo]

Yeah it's direct playing

[whole yoke]

its 1000 aud max

[topaz veldt]

yeah thats not "supported" thats your client supporting DV

[torpid cargo]

can't transcode to dolby vision

[topaz veldt]

to or from or anywhere between

[pure garnet]

i don’t know the australian market but somewhere in the 5070ti/9070xt/5070/9070 range

[whole yoke]

its 700 usd

[topaz veldt]

Which means if you add subtitles or do any transcoding, it will fail

[torpid cargo]

yes, but a lot of DV profiles aren't even able to direct play on Jellyfin

[whole yoke]

i was already looking at a 9070xt but would a 5070 be better?

[pure garnet]

up to you i’d take the xt personally

[topaz veldt]

Possible, but all I know is Plex does not support it, its not licensed, so direct play will sometimes work in an mp4 container

I spent like a week building regex to get the right files

[whole yoke]

the 9070 xt has 4gb more vram for the same price as the 5070

[pure garnet]

by direct play on jellyfin are we talking about their client

[torpid cargo]

no, like it just doesn't support DV7

on the server side

[pure garnet]

the server is just sending a file over the network

[whole yoke]

does it matter if both the cpu and gpu is both the same brand or no? like if i get an amd cpu and gpu would it be better compatible or does it not matter? prob a dumb question

[pure garnet]

but i mean from the sounds of it dv7 is just a mess

[pure garnet]

it won’t matter

i mean actually you’ll see resizable bar renamed to smart access memory but they’re the same thing

[whole yoke]

also why dont i see PBO in my bios? is it just cause its a cheap motherboard? the bios version is latest

[topaz veldt]

all of DV is a mess outside of streaming apps

[pure garnet]

i don’t disagree but dv7 looked even worse

from what i saw for proper FEL your best option was a separate player with custom software

profile 8 on streaming apps just works™

but yeah i’d use the same app for plex so i don’t see a difference

[topaz veldt]

I'd just make sure I have an HDR10 profile in the file

[ember hamlet]

Not necessarily tech help but im just curious if anyone else (who rocks AMD gpus) has been experiencing frequent driver timeout messages? For me it started ever since 26.2.2 and I've only had it (thankfully) once in 26.3.1

I just wanna know if im not the only one lol

[brisk jolt]

Happened like almost every week back on my 9070XT last year

[ember hamlet]

Is it just GPU dependent or it just happens every now and then with each driver revision?

I'm on a 7700 XT rn

[merry stirrup]

so i’m gonna see if i can start binning h24m 6K c28 sticks

[brisk jolt]

for me it was on every driver version

[ember hamlet]

Damn, that blows a lot man

[brisk jolt]

the best one I had was with a 120 FP cap entering a cutscene and my FPS counter just shot up to 400 and I got the driver timeout LOL

[ember hamlet]

Thats super weird as hell wtf lol

Even on the newest one, 26.3.1, you've been having issues?

[brisk jolt]

no its sold

[ember hamlet]

Ahh I see

Yeah can't even blame you for selling it lol that really sucks

[brisk jolt]

“but it could be ur UV settings!”

nah it happened on stock as well

[ember hamlet]

That or ig just a defective card? Thats still hella strange

[brisk jolt]

I tried forza horizon 4 and got a stuttery mess- Closed the game and the driver timedout

[ember hamlet]

It was Windows 11 id imagine yeah?

[brisk jolt]

I asked the guy I sold it to and he’s only had one hiccup in a month

[ember hamlet]

Yeah thats
