[turbid locust]

Got about $20 worth of skins for it

[pure garnet]

gaben’s infinite money glitch

[turbid locust]

a friend was in the call opening Fever cases

Pulled a $500 AWP skin and more

dude literally made a profit

[steel stream]

how much did you spend

[turbid locust]

like $300 lmfao

[steel stream]

oof

[turbid locust]

it’s all good my brother is buying my spare OLED monitor off me this weekend

so it’s basically free

[steel stream]

nah spend more money on cases bro

[turbid locust]

no bro lmao

if I want skins I’ll just buy the fuckers

I’ll open cases if they’re dropped

[brisk jolt]

he opened more cases after this

[steel stream]

but gambling

[turbid locust]

but I’m not buying anymore

[steel stream]

GOLD GOLD GOLD GOLD

[turbid locust]

atp I think you have better luck on a third party site

[trim agate]

im a valorant addict now

[turbid locust]

addicted to valorant in the worst state of the game in 6 years

[trim agate]

see my problem

[pure garnet]

considering the state cs is in i think it’s better off playing neither

[steel stream]

i need to pick up Doom eternal again

[brisk jolt]

i dont have a monitor that is alive nor do i have the game installed

[steel stream]

and Dead Space, and death stranding

[pure garnet]

sorry akn the 265k can’t game anymore, you gotta get a 270k+

[trim agate]

i picked up gold

[steel stream]

nice

[steel stream]

atp I should throw my PC in the garbage

also what is deadlock

jerry gave me an invite to the game but idk what it is

[pure garnet]

third person shooter with moba mechanics

closest released equivalent would be smite maybe

[steel stream]

ah ok

[pure garnet]

i've put about 100 hous in

it's fun if you like the genre

[steel stream]

have to try, i've never really played a moba

[pure garnet]

start with street brawl

that way you only get gamed on for ~15 minutes vs an hour+

[steel stream]

ok got it

[pure garnet]

full matches usually last around 40-60min in the "lower" elo brackets

supposedly they're like 20 min at high rank but i've never seen that in my life

street brawl just lets you queue up and fight so it's better for trying the heroes out

@shell void we have Bartlett lake booting to windows on z790

Vine coded booting 😭

Also do I want the $50 a380 or the $50 36" Intel bunny suit plushy

[pure garnet]

bunny suit

[hoary hatch]

Is that better than the logi

[civic reef]

A screw on my laptop Heatsink isn't coming off

[shell void]

now we just need vibecoded microcode mods that unlock it on an apex

[shell void]

the foundry plushy is cool

A380 has ZERO aura

[hoary hatch]

I need a better way to follow this story arc than the occasional videocardz update

[hoary hatch]

Okay but it's more useful than the bunny suit lmao

[pure garnet]

a380 is common rarity commodity

bunny suit is unique

[shell void]

this is the source thread: https://www.overclock.net/threads/12-p-core-bartlett-lake-s-cpu.1816741/page-46?post_id=29574654#post-29574654

[shell void]

no not really because you already have a better Alchemist card

at least the bunny suit is interesting, the A380 is just a downgrade or a paperweight

[civic reef]

What is this paste application 💔

[hoary hatch]

It would be for Plex server

The a750 is a bit much for plex

Of course, my Plex server is currently uhhhhhh CPU encoding

[steel stream]

what

[steel stream]

oh get the plushy for sure

[pure garnet]

the bunny mogs an hp a380 all day

[steel stream]

i love my a380 but the bunny is the clear winner

[devout ridge]

bunny 100%

[steel stream]

the TC2 council has spoken

[shell void]

swapping from an A750 to an A380 is a complete waste of time, the foundry bunny is infinitely cooler

[trim agate]

plushy

[pure garnet]

if navy doesn’t buy the bunny we’ll all be disappointed

[steel stream]

Tc2 riot if he doesn't buy it

[pure garnet]

i’ll use discord as a search engine if he doesn’t buy it

[shell void]

the only way that i can accept him getting the A380 is if he sells the A750, and still buys the IFS Bunny

So what happened with this?

[young void]

Brutallls

[trim agate]

heh

[civic reef]

Lmfao

What'd you do

[fringe vigil]

[cosmic gazelle]

used a DOS program to forcefully rewrite the bios chip and the board did not appreciate whatever format it did it in even though I did everything correctly

[civic reef]

They.. Tend to do that

Oh well, not much you can do in that regard

Just reprogram it like you said you will

[merry stirrup]

lol you see the vuln with amd mixed mode?

[cosmic gazelle]

well this is a documented method that people have done before it just didn’t work out in my case

there’s not really a specific reason i could have predicted it not working

[pure garnet]

no what happened

[merry stirrup]

idk i saw it on bios update patch notes

maybe gigabyte? msi?

[civic reef]

Is it mayhaps an MSI board

[cosmic gazelle]

asus

[merry stirrup]

@pure garnet the funny

[pure garnet]

😭

[merry stirrup]

you can guess what card lol

[civic reef]

Huh, thought it'd be an MSI board

[pure garnet]

i wanna say it’s a 9070xt but i’m assuming it’s a 5090

[shell void]

no i did not

[vestal granite]

everytime i look at air quality map philadelphia is just a big ole fart cloud why yall fartin up the maps fellas

[fervent chasm]

all the larger cities have fart clouds

[vestal granite]

nah but philadelphias is like an excessive fart cloud like it goes around everywhere

look NYC is on that map but theres only one mini cloud like a toot cloud like thats a toot not a fart

[fervent chasm]

St Louis has a bigger one

these maps are kinda bad

[vestal granite]

thats because states off of the east coast dont have laws and just pump death into the sky

states where the primary export is "Chemicals"

ah shit new jerseys primary export is chemicals

[indigo walrus]

[pallid marsh]

Ah

[haughty monolith]

samsung qled

[pallid marsh]

Samsung has no dolby vision support

[haughty monolith]

ah

[wise bear]

and im looking to spend at least 1k

[pallid marsh]

Qm8k is $999 at Best buy for 65

[wise bear]

how does this make sense.

[wise bear]

is the 8k worth

[pallid marsh]

Let me check rtings

[shell void]

65” C5

[wise bear]

im not spending $1800

THATS MORE FUCKING LIKE IT.

ok if the qm8k is worth im doing that

[shell void]

who’s pricing it at $1800? they’re taxin what the heck

65” S90F and C5 OLEDs are supposed to be $1400 or less

[wise bear]

i was talking about the c5..?

oh

idk im really pissed off im not reading things correctly

[shell void]

i’m always going to shill OLED, but if you want a LCD then i’d take the Hisense U8QG over the TCL QM8K

[wise bear]

if i do oled that will be the next pc display

[pallid marsh]

Qm8k is not that amazing for $1k its trades blows with my non k

[wise bear]

yeah and yours is an older model I can't get anymore

[pallid marsh]

Yeah

It was out of production when I did my rma

[lethal topaz]

who makes the best mini leds right now?

[devout ridge]

samsung

[warm gate]

my math is not mathing

[lethal topaz]

i thought their high ends were qd oled

[pallid marsh]

LG b5 is $999 but not very bright

[devout ridge]

they make both QD-OLED and mini-led

[nova patrol]

anyone know maybe how to fix its a portable monitor and its powered by usb c i tried every sub c cable

[indigo walrus]

We need a lot more information to effectively troubleshoot something like this. Create a thread in #1027757333117415424 with your full system specs (make and model of all parts), a description of exactly when, where, and how the issue occurs, along with any error messages observed, and any troubleshooting steps you've tried, then patiently await a response from a volunteer.

[pallid marsh]

https://www.bestbuy.com/product/samsung-65-class-s90d-series-oled-4k-uhd-smart-tizen-tv-2024/J3ZYG2HRF7 $1099? Only thing that stinks is no dolby vision support

[slim pebble]

@shell void I’m looking at the MSI AI1600 that supposedly has protection to prevent a 50 series meltdown.

Is this ripple good or bad?

[nova patrol]

no one helps there

[wise bear]

with the qm8k, solves all my issues

[pallid marsh]

Nice

[indigo walrus]

Huh? Lots of people do. Like all online communities, time of day, nature of the problem, and the amount of information will determine whether or not someone replies. Patience is king when asking for free help.

[devout ridge]

the more info someone provides up front the more likely i am to help tbf, it suggests they’ll be easy to work with

[nova patrol]

free as in anyone would pay

[indigo walrus]

So much this. Without make and model of all parts involved, we can't even begin looking up the products to see if we're even remotely familiar with how they're supposed to function. More information = more effective assistance.

[pallid marsh]

It's going to get very bright

[wise bear]

Good

[pallid marsh]

Now to hope you get a single defective dimming zone near the bottom like I did so you get a second tv for free

[wise bear]

No thank you.

This is literally the first tie I've ever had something arrive broken like that

ever

[shell void]

it's a disappointing result for a $700 PSU, but it's within spec and shouldn't be a problem

[devout ridge]

“within spec” is the bare minimum

[shell void]

it's three times more loose than the goated AX1600i for reference

but ~30mv shouldnt cause any problems, ive been using a PSU that measures similarly for my 5090

[pallid marsh]

Mine was only an issue for full screen content and it only showed on certain colors

[shell void]

the ATX12v spec allows 120mv which is insane to me, but 30mv is definitely fine, it's just a very mediocre result for a $700 PSU

[devout ridge]

oh michael i opened a psu and didn’t electrocute myself!

also found a resistor that was burnt to hell

[pallid marsh]

Did it smell good?

[devout ridge]

it did not

that smell also lingers for a long time

[shell void]

im glad this didnt happen to you xD

[devout ridge]

Iroh didn’t have to lightning bend this go around

helps that the whole thing had been sitting in a closet for a year

so everything was at exactly 0.00v

bleed resistors doing their job ftw

[low sorrel]

I feel like if you drop TOO much information you also won't get help

[slim pebble]

Thanks good to know. The AX1600i was all digital controlled, so it doesn’t surprise me that it’s goated.

Plus, that ripple measurement is at 100% load:

Most use isn’t going to see that 30mv (I hope)

[shell void]

it's totally fine, it's just not what i want to see on such an expensive PSU

[low sorrel]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/s/7rhAGUY8CD

So it does work

[pure garnet]

what hardware?

[prime iris]

windows will only use 251 gb of memory for some reason, only windows server uses all 512, it sees 512 but only says 251 is usable

[pure garnet]

are you on home or pro

well that supports up to 6tb

what cpu?

do you see anything about max memory in msconfig

[worthy leaf]

Boutta do my first 3ds wish me luck

[prime iris]

no, its unlocked

[grand yoke]

Overlock an 5800x3D yes or no?

[pure garnet]

you’re not going to get much out of it without bclk so probably not

[pure garnet]

honestly not sure why it’s not letting you use the ram then

[low sorrel]

Bro I'm sitting in the back of my brothers Audi going up to snowboarding with my cousin and my brother was speeding a bit and there was a truck going like probably 80 kph on the wrong side of the road and almost hit me

[wise bear]

follow the fuckin speed limits

they're there for a reason

[pure garnet]

never

well occasionally but

[wise bear]

have fun dying then idk

[lethal topaz]

i love speeding

[pure garnet]

stopping is the dangerous part

[lethal topaz]

why wouldnt i speed

[wise bear]

Because you can fucking hit someone

[pure garnet]

there’s also a difference between like 15 over on a highway and blowing through a parking lot at 40

[lethal topaz]

maybe on a mountain road

[pure garnet]

i’m equally likely to hit someone randomly at 65 as i am at 75

[lethal topaz]

nah most roads in my state arent designed for as low of a speed limit as they are set to

we got stroads here with speed limits at like 35 mph

[low sorrel]

To be fair it was like 65 kph in a 50 on a 4 lane road

[lethal topaz]

kph??

i thought you were merican

[pallid marsh]

Kill people hour

[pure garnet]

50kmph is walking speed

[lethal topaz]

guess its that time

[civic reef]

I found a pretty cheap AMD T14

[pure garnet]

dude talking about some segway crash 😭

[civic reef]

It could be a temporary stopgap for my laptop problem

When I can get something else like a Legion this'll be relegated to backup duty

[low sorrel]

I mean 65x2 is 130

[civic reef]

What do yall think?

[lethal topaz]

which is like 65mph

[low sorrel]

Big ass Ford truck vs small Audi rs3

[lethal topaz]

hold on
audi rs3 goated

want to drive one so bad

[pure garnet]

every modern car is cheaply built tin can

it’ll just crush itself

[pallid marsh]

Don't worry it will just drive over your car caving in the roof

Eh, sometimes. That said, I find it's less of a "too much" information thing than it is a "good luck reading this giant single paragraph with no formatting / structure" problem.

[floral spear]

My favorite expensive bullshit coffee ahop

[indigo walrus]

When we stopped at a Dutch Bros in summer 2024, I was not impressed and don't get the hype. They're like all the other drive-through coffee places, but their drinks are like what you get from a 7-11 slush coffee machine.

[floral spear]

What did you get

[indigo walrus]

One of their Blended Freeze's - mine was a Mocha-something summer special. Tasted like I was drinking pure sugar with next to zero mocha flavor. (To be clear, I wasn't expecting Starbucks Frappuccino at all - after all, this is a completely different coffee chain. But when you order something with Mocha, you expect some Mocha flavor...)

[floral spear]

That's why, I often get thr Double Eagle

Blended Freezes aren't bad if you just got out of school

But I always suggest the iced coffee or any of the caramel related drinks

[indigo walrus]

I'll keep that in mind if we ever find ourselves back there in the future. We were much more impressed with the coffee from Lighthouse Coffee in Lincoln City. https://www.facebook.com/TheLighthousecoffeeco/photos

[floral spear]

I bet it tastes great but tbf im biased

Im biased because back in high school I always go over there because its just by the corner

I buy specifics coffees on specific areas

Japanese Store:
-Boss Black Coffee (3$)
Starbucks:
-Java Chip Cookie Frappe
Dutch Bros:
-Golden Eagle/Caramelizer

If im making my own coffee I always make the Ohnepixel special

@indigo walrus scam

[indigo walrus]

lol they on a crash course with the hammer

[floral spear]

How dare they interrupt my coffee talk in tech chat 2

[indigo walrus]

As someone who spends far too much time dreaming about moving to Japan, I've heard amazing things about Boss coffee, relative to the price and convenience that it is, of course. Haven't yet found it locally though.

[floral spear]

But yeah for coffee I always stick to one thing- but if someone offers me some random coffee im always open to grab them

[floral spear]

That's quite unfortunate I live in Las Vegas and I vet it on my local japanese grocery store

[indigo walrus]

Another place we stopped at on our trip made hands down the best Lavender London Fog I've ever had.
https://maps.app.goo.gl/VPAdspSfmngrdHBAA

[floral spear]

Of course see im not going "omg japan is so much better"

I just appreciate a good tasting black coffee without it tasting bad or too strong

Boss Coffee is a perfect black coffee where you know how its going to be and it always stay consistent

[wraith steeple]

My area has a good amount of middle eastern coffee shops

Most of them are Yemeni and Lebanese

[floral spear]

Middle Easterns are pretty cool too

Except for the time I went to a kebab shop bougjt a coffee and protein fries

I saw a child cook the chicken but thought nothing of it till I found out i got a stomach disease

[wraith steeple]

SE Michigan/Metro Detroit area is especially homed to the largest MENA Diaspora in the country

Most of the restaurants here are Iraqi, Lebanese, Syrian, and Yemeni based

[wraith steeple]

Yeah that's rough

[floral spear]

[pallid marsh]

@low sorrel we lost a f15 and an a-10 today

[civic reef]

The US is fielding A-10s against Iran?

That's bloody stupid

[pallid marsh]

For the boats if I recall right

[civic reef]

Bloody thing isn't fast enough to put space between it and any IRCCM-capable SAM to effectively use its IRCM

[pallid marsh]

"Operation Epic Fury" near Iran, primarily targeting Iranian fast-attack boats and mine-laying vessels in the Strait of Hormuz to secure shipping lanes

[civic reef]

If even one of the good chaps on those boats has an Sa-18 the damned plane is at high risk

Genuinely best they just use F-15s if they really want CAS

[pallid marsh]

I love the a-10 but it needs to be retired

[civic reef]

Not trying to be an armchair general but genuinely it should've been retired in like 2010

It only does good against people without any sort of AA

Iran isn't that

Bloody serves them right to lose that hunk of rusting titanium

[pallid marsh]

And if/when we go against China....

[civic reef]

China is an even worse situation

They've got reverse engineered / licensed / unlicensed Russian missiles for days

The US will run out of flares like Israel is running out of iron dome munitions lmfao

[pallid marsh]

Hell they have enough men to man old fashion ww2 aa guns to take down a-10s

[civic reef]

Their ZSU-57-2s brought out of museums lmfao

[pallid marsh]

For real

[civic reef]

Those airframes would be better melted down for recycling lmao

[pallid marsh]

Make them into titanium made airdropable light tanks

[civic reef]

Overbudget and overweight like the M-10 Booker lmfao

[pallid marsh]

Shhh

[civic reef]

Did you know they reclassified into the assault gun role?

Welcome back StüG III ❤️

[pallid marsh]

I wanted the m-10 to be a real thing we used

[civic reef]

I wanted it to be real aswell
Great target practice if Israel tried fielding them

Easier than trying to hit Namers since those usually get composite appliques

[pallid marsh]

We need a USA version

Damn

Witcher 4 looks amazing

Not sure if we need one for China/ Taiwan war but it will be cool to have one

[low sorrel]

Just make the mgs float

[pallid marsh]

But X can penetrate and kill it now, let's add more armor! Wait now it can't float or be airdropped... Bradley flash backs

[pure garnet]

it has never been more over than it is now

[smoky cedar]

Has anyone swapped from a modular power supply to another?

[pallid marsh]

You shouldn't use the same cords

Cables "

Most are pinned different and will break your system

[civic reef]

What a bloody joke

Was installing Mint, everything was going fine

Then suddenly I realised that the battery, whilst being on a 45W charger, was draining

[pure garnet]

hey i know that guy

[smoky cedar]

Oh snap so you have to use the ones that came with the power supply everytime?

[spiral quarry]

Depending on the model some do are the same across (IE Corsair for some models). But generally you should just use the ones that came with that psu.

[low sorrel]

No

Too expensive

[spiral quarry]

Mixing psu cables is asking for a bad time or the pc won't turn on.

[smoky cedar]

Love you guys thanks for helping me with my picnic problem. Will report with my results after swapping ALL cords and not just a few.

[civic reef]

Yeah I am going to buy this T14 G1/2

T470s has so many problems

Dead secondary battery
Primary battery is no good
Charger is dead so I am using a 45W phone charger

M3 max

[topaz veldt]

[shell void]

i think you need a M5 Max for editing text documents

[low sorrel]

@pallid marsh how do I know when I need a new helmet

[merry stirrup]

lol i got the go ahead

[pure garnet]

fire

[pallid marsh]

X-ray machine or one good head smack

Some people get new helmets if they drop them

[pallid marsh]

If you hit your head you can still use it just don't hit your head in the same spot

[low sorrel]

What defines as one good head smack

[pallid marsh]

Enough force to dent the foam or whatever the material is inside the helmet

It could still be half as safe if it didn't compress it all they way

Or it could be 1/8th as safe

It's a vibes measurement

[low sorrel]

So it should be fineee

I just got a little dizzy for like 2 minutes after eating shit

[wraith steeple]

[wise bear]

oh slay did you get a new job??

[wraith steeple]

I'm giving muh AWE64 Gold for a test drive

Moving up in the world

[merry stirrup]

2 weeks ago

yeah now i get to bin hw i want to buy

im binning like 100 sticks of h24m 6000 c28

[spiral quarry]

lol I applied too for a senior position at IMAX for shits and giggles. Didn’t get it but hey was worth the shot

Though I would actually be happy if I got it and moved away from my freelance stuff.

[steel stream]

@shell void the ads I just watched were so peak, invincible was pretty good too I guess

Binged all 5 episodes tn, so good

[shell void]

XD

i downloaded it

[shell void]

episodes 2 and 5 were so good

i’m wondering how 7 and 8 will be able to outperform episode 5

[brisk jolt]

ive heard the animation is meh while the voice acting is good

then again its english media xd

[shell void]

the animation for the show as a whole is definitely the weak point, and it’s because they do yearly releases with 45+ minute episodes

but they lock in for the important fights

[brisk jolt]

ive been watching hell’s paradise s2 on my tablet since my monitor’s dead and the refund is still in review

idk what they want me to show except for the monitor being dead xd

[steel stream]

I went home for the weekend so I’m using my parents prime and it’s terrible lol

[shell void]

is there no ad-free prime offering now?

[steel stream]

They did damn good

[shell void]

if it's ads no matter what then that's mega cringe

[steel stream]

There is I think but my parents are cheap

[shell void]

save yourself that headache and download the future episodes if youll be home, theyre only like 1.5GB

RTX VSR works great for Invincible as well

[steel stream]

I think you have to pay an additional $5/month for no ads

[steel stream]

Yeah I go home on Sunday so I’ll have it for next episode

[brisk jolt]

RTX VSR + HDR W

I usually watch on the G5 so I don’t get anything fancy, just whatever the firestick and the tv can provide

[shell void]

sounds like you need a nvidia HTPC

naw it already looks much better on a tv from a couch distance

[steel stream]

I do technically have an 2060 super sitting around

Do people just use windows on htpcs

[shell void]

yeah i think most people do

seems like a pain in the ass to use TBH

[steel stream]

I feel like video audio passthrough for like hdr or Dolby audio technologies would be a nightmare tbh, and then using a keyboard mouse to navigate shows and movies seems terrible

i made brown sugar oatmeal

it really does just look like gruel though

[steel stream]

Sad there are no more invincible episodes to watch rn

[devout ridge]

oh my god, oatmeal really is better with milk

(funnily enough i used oat milk cause i'm allergic to dairy)

i put oat milk in my oat meal, ultimate oat dish

The CQM on this AWE64 Gold has been a nice experience thus far

[green marsh]

still can't decide what will i get for AI. the dual 1080 Ti does ~20t/s in claude code (that's fine for me), but 'only' ~400-500t/s prompt processing. I would want to have 32GB VRAM to have some more spare space for more context and possiblty future models. On one side there is an option for dual 9060 XT 16GB (2x400 euros), dual 9070 XT (2x 700 euros), dual 5060 Ti (2x 610 euros) or B70 Pro if it ever shows up... but B70 has the software support issue which might be solved by Intel partnering up with vLLM, might not

(issue with dual GPU setup is that i will have to still use the dedicated system for that then, can't put that in my 'server' - well i could, but would have to give up something in exchange)

@pure garnet @merry stirrup took me a $6 subscription to a random forum and 4 hours but we are so fucking back

[cosmic gazelle]

ah yes for a cpu i don’t have

[merry stirrup]

good bios?

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah i didn’t know the versions off asus website aren’t complete and are just incremental patches

so i had to use some random guy’s dump but they’re all paywalled

[merry stirrup]

ah

[cosmic gazelle]

now this windows install is misbehaving so i gotta redo that tomorrow

[cosmic gazelle]

this is nice there’s no fclk no pbo settings no nothing

just voltage and frequency like God intended

the board had PBO, but under AMD something settings i think. but not 100% sure

[green marsh]

damn, and i was thinking the 400-500t/s prompt processing speed of my dual 1080 Ti setup id bad https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/discussions/4167

How much will a 4650U differ from a 5650U in daily driving

Is it worth getting an L14 G2 instead of a T14 G1

Is the Zen 3 jump worth it

[pure grail]

no
i mean u wont notice

[civic reef]

What about for basic gaming? The 4650U has Vega 6 & the 5650U Vega 7

[odd sable]

both are slow

[pure grail]

youll probably hit the igpu bottleneck before cpu

[civic reef]

They're enough for the sort of stuff I'd realistically play on them

War Thunder (which ran on HD 620) Minecraft, etc

[odd sable]

they're both slow

Oh, great news!
Brother's chipping in, I think I can like just put a downpayment on a Legion right here and now

Then I can shut up about upgrades because the 5060 on it is awesome

why not look at stuff like 4060 if its cheaper

they hang around the same perf depending on power limits
(cyberpunk 2077)

even the 5050 too lol

[civic reef]

5050 options are LOQs and Victus'

The Legion has better build quality and QoL

[pure grail]

wb "old" 4060s on discount

[civic reef]

-If the 5050 Legion was cheaper I'd get it lol, but it's $40 more expensive

[civic reef]

Nope
None

[pure grail]

ngek

[civic reef]

Cheapest Legion is a 3060

No 4060s or even 4050s

[civic reef]

@pure grail I mean I could compromise with a 5050 LOQ

So, Running a custom ROM with root, being apart of a small percentage of people who do that today, is great...

So idc about privacy cause tbh we havent had any for a long time and i prefer the if I live like a good person I have nothing to worry about (contrary to my current expierences in life).

Can we make quality self built routers?

[green marsh]

for most users - pick a N100 mini PC with 2x 2.5 gigabit NIC, install OpenWRT/pfSense/whatever, done. You don't need more ports, those are just switches from one port anyway

still can't decide which way to go when picking parts for 32GB VRAM LLM setup

[hoary hatch]

Yeah

I've been running my old Skylake rig for the last 4 years as a router

Before that it was a $10 optiplex as the router

[young void]

I myte have to do some digging

[green marsh]

@young void i mean:
2x 9060 XT 16GB (2x400 euros)
2x 9070 XT (2x 700 euros)
2x dual 5060 Ti (2x 610 euros)
1x B70 Pro (for probably 1200 euros if it comes out)

9070 XT is probably the fastest, 2x 5060 Ti is probably the most well supported, 2x 9060 XT is cheapest, 1x B70 Pro will use the least lanes and has no data transfers between cards...

[green marsh]

before N2930 Mini PC with dual gigabit, now N100 mini PC with dual 2.5

[young void]

I also want to lean toward the 9070xt out of the list

[green marsh]

i mean i run Qwen3.5-35B-A3B on my 2x1080 Ti setup at ~400-500t/s prompt processing, ~20t/s token generation. Which is not horrible, but even 9060 XT AFAIK goes above 2000t/s prompt processing, which means the 30-60 second waits for big prompts could be cut to 10-20 seconds

[hoary hatch]

before before before: Core 2 duo with dual gigabit
before before: i5-6500 with dual gigabit
before: i5-6500 with dual 2.5gbe
now: Unifi Dream Router 7

Ive been considering running my own model for 3d generation since theres 0 free platforms

Out of like 20 diffrent software sighs. Metas playground maybe idk yet its free i suppose but takes some setup mehhhh

[pure garnet]

it was pretty easy to setup

[young void]

Does it allow meshes to be exported/downloaded?

[pure garnet]

i think i misread actually

i didn’t see the 3d part

No biggies ❤️

At some point I need to quit being a bum and just learn blender

i try to get the shape correct and then somehow the other side of the model has imploded

[devout ridge]

[young void]

XD its ok all I have is assets, 0 art abilities

[devout ridge]

i am a 100% technical guy, very little creativity to be had

[green marsh]

luckily all i want is coding, so simpler

[young void]

Reminder to add thickness to prevent z fighting, or make a layer appear outside the mesh

[devout ridge]

genuinely the biggest hardship i have with lighting design is trying to be creative

[green marsh]

i need to learn freecad if i want to 3d print stuff

[devout ridge]

i can rig everything and have it technically perfect, i can use colors that contrast perfectly with costuming, but being creative and making it look visually interesting? idk man

[young void]

If you add to ue5 chaos physics are noiceee (and not as complicated as it sounds)

[pure garnet]

well i’m working with a premade body devkit

so i’m really just stretching textures to fit that body and fixing the shape

[devout ridge]

i have learned exactly one 3d modeling software, and it’s based around using pre-made assets

[young void]

Whats fun in my mind, and whats fun in practice after ive made it are very diffrent xD

Finding things that are interesting or fun is hard to capture

Non the less you guys should share picsss when you do stuff unless on a nda

[devout ridge]

no NDA here, just concerns for privacy

that was the last show i worked on, The Lightning Thief

we had all the sixth graders from the local middle school come in and see it, and they loved it

it was really cool putting on a show for a bunch of kids that genuinely appreciate our work

[young void]

Its always a blast for kiddos to explore the arts , i was always into the gods from Greek to Egyptian a curious coincidence the lot. But the books and movies where good

[devout ridge]

Yeah, we really need more people in the fine arts

I don’t plan on doing it for a career, but i absolutely plan on volunteering at local theaters when i can

[young void]

I think they made a show breifly as well. A solid story

[devout ridge]

(i’m still in school doing this)

the head of the department gives me a lot of latitude on what i’m allowed to do and explore, including approving the rental for 12 moving lights for that show

I can’t thank her enough for that

[young void]

Little wins

[devout ridge]

Having the freedom to explore what i find interesting is one of the most rewarding things

It helps that the school i’m at gets an abnormally high amount of funding for the fine arts

so many schools are struggling with very small budgets, which is incredibly sad

just not the compute tiles for desktop cpus

off the top of my head..
panther lake and wildcat lake (low power laptop cpus)
xeon 6+
i/o and graphics tiles in nova lake
crescent island datacenter GPU

plus the external customers using 18A such as the US military, microsoft, and amazon

I don’t think you even want 97” tbh, G5 at least didn’t use the tandem oled for the 97”

[topaz veldt]

not bright?

[steel stream]

Yeah brightness and color volume are nerfed

[topaz veldt]

ah lame

its like an 10.5' distance anyway

should prob stay 77-83

[steel stream]

Yeah I think 77-83 would be great

[topaz veldt]

I could get like 12' distance to viewing but the opening between windows is only like 70"

[hoary hatch]

Nova Lake S is definitely N2

18AP would be so fucking hawt tho

Well lads
265K is on it's way back to Newegg 🫡

woot is offering quite the deal

[steel stream]

By “1” do they mean like 10 or 100

[pure garnet]

well the board is $250 on amazon so hopefully 100

perhaps some NVL or RZL laptop/apu will use 18AP

I guess PCIe lanes are being bought up

AI datacenters are cramming 64x lanes on one PCIe slot!!!! They're stealing our lanes!!!!

[atomic veldt]

is overclocking a 9800x3d worth it? will i see a decent increase?

[civic reef]

From the video

[merry stirrup]

no

youre more than likely gpu limited in everything you play unless you have a 5090 at 1440p

& even then

[shell void]

+200MHz PBO gives you a less than 4% gain in the best case scenario, but if you find it fun to tune then sure go ahead

y-cruncher VT3 works well for testing allcore PBO Curve Optimizer, and also works well for testing memory

[atomic veldt]

ive seen people getting it up to 5750 mhz

[atomic veldt]

rn beamng msfs red dead

[merry stirrup]

yeah bro youre gpu limited

maybe not beam but theres no way its not playable (more than)

[shell void]

theyre either clock stretching (not actually hitting 5750MHz effective clockspeed) or using exotic cooling on golden samples

[atomic veldt]

oh yeah its all 100% playable but can always squeeze out a bit of extra performance

[pure garnet]

you're also not getting above 5425 without eclk on a "special" board

[atomic veldt]

right thanks

[merry stirrup]

in this case probably not worth it, only "worth" it for wr scores and benchmarks

[atomic veldt]

alright thanks

[merry stirrup]

got top ten 4690K last night im gonna play with it some more today

[atomic veldt]

whats a 'special' board?

[merry stirrup]

incredible

[atomic veldt]

ive got a fairly decent board

[pure garnet]

a board with an external clock generator for the cpu

not every board has one

[atomic veldt]

dont asus do them

[merry stirrup]

depends on the specific board

[pure garnet]

it's not just a binary this brand has it this brand doesn't

[merry stirrup]

yeah

its a feature generally delegated to high end overclocking board

[pure garnet]

my x670e-e has it but the b650e-f didn't

[atomic veldt]

ive got an aorus b850 rn

[merry stirrup]

the blue board is such an L. it also limits ram to 1.8V :/

[steel stream]

Damn

[merry stirrup]

yeah, people bench d3 at like 2.2+

[thin juniper]

What should I look for in a NAS and Switch CPU

[steel stream]

Damn that board can’t do shit then

[thin juniper]

Things like clock speed, core count, pci lanes, that sort of thing

[merry stirrup]

yeah & idk how ddr3 really works

[merry stirrup]

very little

[thin juniper]

Huh

[merry stirrup]

if you just want a nas then you can get away with some insanely garbage hardware and it wont even be slow

[thin juniper]

Ah, good to know

[merry stirrup]

same w/switching

[analog scroll]

yep

[steel stream]

I think DDR3 at 2.2V is just plug whatever in, if it doesn’t work you just set it to 2.3V

[merry stirrup]

my nas is a 10700, blistering fast for its purposes, just find something similar

usually your best value is going to be an office machine from whatever era is in your budget

[thin juniper]

So, I just need something relatively modern then, sweet

[merry stirrup]

then just load it up with hdds

[analog scroll]

yep

[merry stirrup]

7-11th gen office machines with 2-4 3.5inch slots should be great

my nas was originally a prebuilt before i put it into a custom

[thin juniper]

Will probably look at something using DRR4 then

[steel stream]

Ewaste nas man smh

[analog scroll]

if you want to use the case it came with then look for anythin ATX

not SFF

[merry stirrup]

at least it was literally free

[thin juniper]

Probably going to go full custom

[analog scroll]

although there are those cool NASs with slim client pcs

[merry stirrup]

besides kyokos arc which was 100$ (@pure garnet love you)

[steel stream]

My 12700K NAS was free (after I upgraded to a 265K)

[thin juniper]

My main machine is running a 285k =3

[thin juniper]

Glad to see im not the only one running intel 15th, 16th? Gen =3

[thin juniper]

That's epic =3

[merry stirrup]

its a computer for sure

[thin juniper]

Lol

[steel stream]

You need another intel gpu in there

[merry stirrup]

i cant :(

oit has to go in that x4 or x8 slot because the IOMMU group with the top slot is shared with everything else basically

[steel stream]

Damn

[merry stirrup]

only way to get it forwarded properly^

[thin juniper]

About how much ram should I be aiming for?

[merry stirrup]

depends on what ur doing

[thin juniper]

32 gigs, 64

[merry stirrup]

i have 64GB in mine and i need basically all of it

[thin juniper]

Nas/switch

[merry stirrup]

but thats cause i run a media server with 12 people, game serving, so on

just go 32 as a decent minimum, better if its only 2 sticks

[steel stream]

I run 32 on mine and it’s fine, but my NAS is pretty simple

[merry stirrup]

yur

[thin juniper]

I didn't think about running game servers on a nas

[merry stirrup]

because youre thinking of it as a nas and not as just a server

[thin juniper]

Might build a more modern one then...

[merry stirrup]

10700 does it fine wont lie

[thin juniper]

Touche

[steel stream]

What app is this?

[thin juniper]

I want to be able to run 3-4 or more servers, lol

[merry stirrup]

homarr with a lot of integrations

[thin juniper]

*game servers

[merry stirrup]

just depends on wat, i can get away with (heavily modded) 3 mc servers, an assetto server, and sometimes a rust server at the same time

[thin juniper]

Oh, nice

[merry stirrup]

my homie made jfin look nice

[thin juniper]

Depending on what happens, would probably be a few mc servers, or hytale servers, and a few SE servers

SE can EAT compute

[steel stream]

Jfin on the firestick sucks balls man

[merry stirrup]

yeah i believe that

the custom CSS like on mine should work on firestick tho if your issue is that its nto pretrty

[steel stream]

I’ll try it out but I think it’s more just a firestick problem

If only I could use my AppleTV

[merry stirrup]

idk what this plugin is but homie got suggestions to work on jfin through jfin

[thin juniper]

So, I probably want something in tge 12th Gen intel range, or amd equivalent

[merry stirrup]

none of those r actually on the server

[thin juniper]

With 64+gigs ram

my poor wallet

[steel stream]

If you’re going 12th gen try and go for a 12700K imo, 8 p cores is nice to have

[merry stirrup]

yeah

[thin juniper]

Thanks

[merry stirrup]

although i dont sit at high cpu usagae ever because arc transcodes now

[steel stream]

Direct play all the time bb

[thin juniper]

I AM planning on using an arc gpu

[merry stirrup]

this is great for one person

however its really annoying to convince 12 people to make sure that their jfin is direct playing by diddling quality settings

[steel stream]

Do you already have one or buying one

[thin juniper]

Both

[merry stirrup]

so my solution was to just make it a non issue

[steel stream]

What

[steel stream]

Fair enough

[merry stirrup]

and yeah arc is NOT going to have any issues

[low sorrel]

@vestal granite @turbid locust @pure garnet @shell void oi im famous im in a war owl video

[thin juniper]

I have an a750 that's going back into my old gaming, now multi media machine

[merry stirrup]

perfect for transcoding

[thin juniper]

Then a new one for the server

[turbid locust]

lol

[thin juniper]

PROBABLY a b580

[steel stream]

Just pony up and get ARL at that point with arc built in tbh

[thin juniper]

ARL?

[steel stream]

Arrow lake

[thin juniper]

Ah

[steel stream]

A 250K would be mint

[thin juniper]

DDR5 though...

[merry stirrup]

a lot of ddr5 is in my future

[thin juniper]

Id LOVE to use it, but COST

[steel stream]

Idk price out both systems but buying a ddr4 system + b580 or some arrow lake sku with arc built in feels like it would be the same

[thin juniper]

Definitely possible

Ugh

32 gigs ddr5 is 500 some odd...

[frank cypress]

cad?

[thin juniper]

Usd

[frank cypress]

hmm

feels a bit off

[thin juniper]

I wish

Maybe i could use my a750 in the server

Im pretty sure the rx 580 is plenty for MOST of what my old machine should be doing

[low sorrel]

hey

why does he only show the parts where he kills me

racism

[thin juniper]

Well, fuck me

The only lga 1700 mobos on 0cpartpicker are in the 400/550 range...

[steel stream]

Yeah don’t buy those new, buy them from eBay

[thin juniper]

Fair

[frank cypress]

yeah this is more in line with what I expect

still a lot mind you

[thin juniper]

Yeah

[frank cypress]

crazy that people are paying as much as I paid for 128gb roughly 2y ago

💀

[pure garnet]

have you tried a third party client on apple tv

[thin juniper]

Yeah

The kit i got for my main pc went up nearly 3 times in the last year or so...

[steel stream]

There’s no 3rd party client that does what I need afaik

Even if I were to pay for infuse

[civic reef]

Almost bought a T14 G2 earlier this morning

5650U, 16GB, 256GB

Backed out last second

Good thing I did, honestly

Yeah it was only going to be a daily driving laptop but I'd probably be better off using the $320 as a downpayment on an LOQ

[wraith steeple]

@steel stream you alright? My area is getting tornado sirens

[steel stream]

Yeah we got warnings on phone then sirens, but sirens already stopped

[pallid marsh]

Put me in your will before the tornado kills you

[wraith steeple]

Sterling Heights is getting slammed RN

Basement here we come

Alright all good

[vestal granite]

god i love using an email service with proper filters

FLINT LOCKWOOD

[steel stream]

We got heavy rain for like 2 minutes and then it stopped, glad to know SH is alright

[merry stirrup]

crunchin at high speeds

[cosmic gazelle]

@merry stirrup did u see i fixed my bios with the programmer

oh wait yeah you texted about it already

[merry stirrup]

yes yes

[cosmic gazelle]

nvm disregard

[merry stirrup]

deez

[cosmic gazelle]

nutz

[merry stirrup]

im ddr3ing it

[cosmic gazelle]

any idea why 2666 in bios would report as 1333mts in task manager but 1333mhz in he monitor

like clearly task manager is wrong but why

[merry stirrup]

windows is regarded

[merry stirrup]

i am currently doing better than ur 2666

[cosmic gazelle]

lol i wasn’t stopping at 2666 i just wanted to sanity check that the board would boot a higher frequency

it was midnight and i needed to go to bed

[merry stirrup]

oh lol

[arctic bronze]

Set ur ram to 1

1 everything

[merry stirrup]

true

[civic reef]

If I had the money I'd own so many useless things just for the sake of it

[cosmic gazelle]

it defaults to 18-19-19 on 2666 lmao

[civic reef]

Good thing my salary doesn't allow that

Else I'd be wearing a IIIA-Kevlar infused fursuit daily

[cosmic gazelle]

bro what

[civic reef]

CL18 2666
Tad slow to be completely honest

Isn't CL18 kinda the latency you'd expect on 3200-3600 or so

[merry stirrup]

yeah jedec my goat

[cosmic gazelle]

well yeah it’s auto timings silly

[civic reef]

Yeah it's like 1.5-2K for the suit itself

Idk how much the kevlar will cost

Not including the 2mm spall liner / shock absorber

[merry stirrup]

that is NOT computer

[civic reef]

Or integrated FCS

[civic reef]

Fair

What does the config you're running do when not on autos

[cosmic gazelle]

what

i haven’t actually done anything yet lol

i just undervolted the core by 50mv and ran cinebench

[merry stirrup]

god FAWK

ycruncher is insane on these poor chips

[cosmic gazelle]

i’m gonna reinstall consumer windows now because ltsc pisses me off and consumer w11 isn’t that bad if you just remove the bullshit

[cosmic gazelle]

is this the i5

ya you can’t really run avx

[merry stirrup]

its avx2, and clearly i am doing it lol

[cosmic gazelle]

well yeah i just hated how quickly it throttled

[merry stirrup]

i wasnt throttling in that because im only set to 4.6, but yeah that is insane

[cosmic gazelle]

can the i5 do higher than the i7 cuz of temps and stuff

or are they basically the same bin for bin

[civic reef]

Oh

[merry stirrup]

yes+i have an airconditioner pointed idirectly at it

like, inches away

[shell void]

in recent years i7s have had the shittiest silicon because they use the i9 scraps

whereas i5s had their own smaller chip design

[cosmic gazelle]

this is haswell gang

[shell void]

im just yappin

[cosmic gazelle]

oh lol

[shell void]

i have no idea what cpu hes testing rn

[cosmic gazelle]

4690k

w ddr3 like 2800 or sumn

[shell void]

but in haswell days youd see higher clocks on i5s because they dont have hyperthreading enabled

[cosmic gazelle]

interesting

[steel stream]

Speak your truth king

[merry stirrup]

im at 2400rn but yeah

[cosmic gazelle]

what are your primaries

[merry stirrup]

11-12-11 or something

[cosmic gazelle]

i got to 10-11-10 on my shitty mismatched dual rank at 2000

[steel stream]

@shell void rtings are currently testing C6, C6H and G6 🙏

[shell void]

most glorious

the G6 is a mess right now

[steel stream]

I still need to watch Vincent’s video on it

[cosmic gazelle]

yo btw i know zen+ and future gen’s differ on this but my board defaulted to 60 procodt and that seems like stupidly high do i need to change it

[shell void]

LG purporsefully overbrightened and desaturated HDR due to feedback from the nerds at HDTVTest's shootout, and now theyre trying to claim it was a firmware problem and undo it

the TV will be overpriced until November anyway so they have time to stop being midwits

[merry stirrup]

fafo time

[cosmic gazelle]

what dat mean

turn it to 48 and hope it works?

[steel stream]

My most glorious goat HDTVTest

[merry stirrup]
