basically just so i can get as clean of a windows install as possible
Do you hae a specific usecase where you need a superclean windows install?
Like is the machine going to be used as an offline station to test code?
Because realistically its not going to give you any performance gains that you would actually feel or be able to notice outside synthetic benchmarks
Hell i doubt you would even see a change in the synthetic benchmarks
im just stupid and doing fresh installs of windows is the most direct way i know how remove bloatware.
Oh its not stupid in the least
Its pretty technical and stupid people wouldnt be able to do it
Also its a fair way to remove bloatware, I just dont think that there would be enough preloaded crap to merit something like that
The only bloatware you might have is a third party antivirus. You can go to the Apps section in the settings, and if you see any third party antivirus, you can press the menu and uninstall it.
Reinstalling Windows for this reason is a waste of time imo
You might also lose the Lenovo laptop control software and you will need to download it again (if you plan on using it)
+1
Also because having lenovo vantage is pretty helpful too when dealing with drivers
Smartnote for yoga series products with pens
im pretty sure wouldn't i be able to just find the downloads for those again on Lenovos website
Yes but do you want to go through all that hassle again
you probably have finished the setup process of the laptop right. You'll have to go through all of that again. It's better to go to the settings -> Apps section and uninstall the things you don't need than to reinstall the entire OS, and then to reinstall the Lenovo software
I'm stupid and im all about learning, by doing stupid things
plus i literally just got it today, and the only thing i did was make a local account just to make sure it's not DOA
Alright
good luck with reinstalling windows
i can't be that different on laptops vs desktops? because i've installed windows on desktops, but i haven't reinstalled it on laptops. well fuck its good practice, im trying to work in IT and im taking an IT certificate course.
It's not at all different
thank god
?
What do you think touchbar does, it's not just a touchscreen f row
you can use the bar for colour picking, video editing scrub, controls in audio production
well people who use it as F row hate it, because it has no touch feedback, so one has to look at keyboard to know what is one pressing. So only people who like the touchbar are the people who design these touch interfaces for looks, not usability. And people who like it how it looks, but not really using it.
we didn't need to sacrifice keyboard F row for that. They could have, i don't know, made the whole screen touchscreen. Or add it as an extra above the F key row
it was really really good, the ones that complain are the ones that can't actually use it
I use macbook daily, I have never found the need to use f row like 99% of the time
I kinda wish they brought back tb for the pro models
only time i ever did press the touchbar for anything but F keys was always by mistake
i am a software developer and neer had a need for anything else but F key functionality on my touchbar enabled macbook
then you're not the target demographic and shouldn't have bought the non touchbar version 😭
it's not like they forced you into getting just the touchbar, there was non touchbar versions of the macbooks too
I used my macbook for all kinds of work, mostly media
there was no 16" MBP 2019 without touchbar, it was not an option
it was a life saver, sometimes I didn't want to carry that wacom thing
well they did. 16" MBP 2019 was the only non-broken Apple laptop at the time
(the first post-butterfly keyboarad macbook)
I always wonder who keeps on breaking their keyboards for the butterfly switch
I have a 2025 MBP 13 for my work, I really miss the butterfly switches, they were crisp af
before that I had the 2017 MBP TB 13 inch
it was breaking because of dust getting under the keycap
it was perfect, except the SSD died on my unit prematurely
I've never had a broken key on my 2017 MBP and that thing was ABUSED
that is why there was a repair program and class action settlement
whats the best itx or matx motherboard option for a 9700X for 2x, 32gb 6000 a 7900xt gpu, and a JIUSHARK JF13K Diamond
b850i asus or b850i asrock lightning
💔
a pci 3.00x2 is slower than a pci 3.0 x 4, for m.2s right?
alright this is what im thinking then so i can get a different motherboard so my build can fit case fans, since an atx motherboard headers and such on the bottom are bending covered/bending , and i dont want to cauusse damage with case fans
Part List - AMD Ryzen 7 9700X, Radeon RX 7900 XT, Silverstone GD11 HTPC
and then ild jsut remove one of my m.2's
for someone not great with hardware and suuch,,, what is the diference with these boardsd,
which boards? :P
https://www.newegg.com/asus-tuf-gaming-b850m-e-wifi-micro-atx-motherboard-amd-b850-am5/p/N82E16813119758 and https://www.newegg.com/asus-tuf-gaming-b850m-plus-wifi-micro-atx-motherboard-amd-b850-am5/p/N82E16813119706
Buy ASUS TUF GAMING B850M-E WIFI AMD B850 mATX motherboard, 8+2+1 80A DrMOS power stages, DDR5, PCIe 5.0, three M.2 slots, WiFi 6E, 2.5Gb Ethernet, DisplayPort, HDMI, rear USB-C 10Gbps and front USB-C 5Gbps with fast shipping and top-rated customer service. Once you know, you Newegg!
is this new this seems new
sorry i didnt get to hit enter a phone call came in
it's alright let me have a look
@granite dirge
The B850M-Plus is all around better;
better vrm cooling
20gbps usb-c on the back vs 10 on the 850m-e
10gbps usb-c on the front vs 5 on the 850m-e
8+8 pin on motherboard instead of 8+4 (MORE POWER!!!)
1 extra fan header
4 usb3.2 gen1 on the IO instead of 2
So if that is worth the extra money to you, go for it
as someone who doesnt overclock uses an ethernet port, and 1 usb -a other than my front io, is it beneficial for me/
i doubt it :P save yourself the 100$+ tbh
unless the USB-C is really needed for you but i doubt it
i literally have my front pannel usb c, used, 2 usb a on the front usedd aand one usb a in the rear, the ethernet cable, and an hdmi, for plugs,
so.... i think im ok lol
yeah save yourself the money
"ass" haha
on a serious note i'd just get the cheaper one here, sounds like you're an average user who doesn't care about all the fancy features
sorry mistype with my prosteic
nah you're good
vrms do not matter unless you’re running a 9950x3d
they still don’t matter on that
the cheaper tuf has 8 80a vrms
you’re not sending 600w into the socket
what if i am 
if you had the money to buy ln2 you’d also have the money to buy an apex
You aren’t
if there is a will, there is a way
Yeah but not really, the board’s traces would probably vanish
Noted, I can pair my 9950x3d2 with a potato
5mall5nail5 should also do that
soon 
AI is dumb, and makes people do even dumber things:
the 512GB model is a beast
i hope we still get the M5 Ultra refresh this year as planned
Sheeesh
Holy $intc
hi y'all
Smoking hot! What did you do?!
A magician never reveals...
What’s your top single core score? R24?
Your memory overclocks will show up there
Haven't tested - I just wanted to hit 48k in R23
Just curious: What would you set for a daily driver?
for PBO?
not bad rite? for a china gpu
Hmmmm potentially.
is the corsair 2000d a good case

Curious indeed 
Top 4 in the world ain't too shabby

Also better half globally
@pure garnet robbed me blind
what are you talking about
i had to pay $40 in shipping today for your dumb purchases
Lmao
yo can I get some of the money too
my mom is kinda homeless



<@&750150305383186585>
Get this degenerate shit outta here
oh what I miss
Basic lame scam
Why is white filament so much more annoying to print with than other colors?
I've used plenty of spools of Black, Grey, Tan, and Rainbow filament and they print GREAT. But White is always just annoying as sin to print with
Should i Dual-Boot or Multi-Drive, im gonna get a pc soon
if you want 2x OS? 2 Drives
im gonna get 3 if possible, 3rd for data backup
1 on linux 2 on windows
i mean 1st on linux 2nd on windows
that's fine, wevs.
But always put linux on a separate physical drive from windows.
Partitioning usually leads to tears.
Yes
Only 1 stick compatabile with oob 8000 
sighsssss does one know how hard it is to get 1 specific set of sticks rn for the cheap bastard I am
Probs could try some royals and tune but also hard to snag. A die is far and few between but around 550 if I give in but then 8000 gear 1 isnt promised still mehh
Dreams soiledd
if you can run 6400 1:1 that's about identical and cheaper
Trying to prep for medusa and nova but no 9000 sticks out yet so myte wait. Also myte try tuning my current sticks for giggles

robbed me BLINDDD
jk gotta keep my hw collection growing
you profited 210$
you know damn well i won’t pay shipping over 100$
Does anyone have steering wheel recommendations?
quite like these gpus
moza if serious logitech if not
my bad stupid question I meant Sim Racing Wheel Recommendations
Is kyoko not in the states
?
no she is i just don’t like her
no i lost another $10 to paypal fees 😭
Lmao 
my bad my bad 200$
Thrustmaster not recommended?
mf said there
i gave you 10$ don’t go crazy
XD
rich benefactor
also fine but dont buy anything gear driven
if you can avoid it*
how about the T300RS is that a gear driven thign?
sugar floppa
google it
i should proably put away the b850 mpower
it's been sitting on my bed all morning bc i needed doohickey cables
yes
the Mozarella
miles better
me personally I would get the r5 tho https://us.mozaracing.com/products/r5-racing-bundle
hmmm
the t300rs is very comperable to the g29 and the g920 which are like 100 dollar wheels on marketplace
you wanna send that instead of the ocf i’ll take it
(🙄)
i already shipped your shit bro
if you wanna send it to me ill take it
WHY ARE YOU BEING MEAN
to pair with my non exisent am5 cpu and ddr5 ram of course
🙄not true (yes i know the joke didn’t land)
For a GPU, if you want to get the most out of it, how important is it to not cut it's available pcie lanes in half?
Eg, using a pcie card in the second slot on your motherboard
Not really important unless time is money
Elaborate?
depends on the gpu and motherboard
also why would you
Rx9070xt and msi meg Z890 ace
Depends on your workload and how you intend to use the gpus
fine™
Capture card for streaming
In some cases itll increase fps if setup appropriately
Huh???
just put the capture card into the second slot
Ok
Can a cheap second GPU supercharge your FPS? I built a budget dual-GPU rig—RTX 3060 + Intel Arc A380—and used Lossless Scaling Frame Generation (LSFG) to boost smoothness in modern AAA games (yes, even Borderlands 4). No SLI, no NVLink—just a smart way to offload frame gen to a helper GPU on a tight budget.
We’ll cover setup, game testin...
That will be FUN
Ah
Really interesting
yes but no
Right its not exactly that simple
But good to confirm halving the pcie lanes won't have a significant noticeable effect
But typically not alot of loss in most things
Depending lmao, best to just to test or lookup your exact loads
Where?
Local, so..
Worth it ngl (if you have a workcase for it)
if it's just rendering out on a dedicated card and you have a display piped out through, say, the igpu, there's no real perf loss because it's just piping out the image 1:1. Where you run into issues is if you've got an intermediary card handling display-out and you're doing something like, 4k120 from the gpu to the dis;play, but the intermediary is capped at like, 4k60 no hdr/vrr.
your board supports configuring pcie 1 and pcie 2 as x8+x8 so it’ll be fine
minimal performance loss for gaming

Here's the link anyway
Kiiiiiinda hoping that if things become better off, I'll be able to get two and put them in RAID 0
You like living dangerously as I see
Expensive though, 320 in HDDs
Im hoping it will do that automagically
Shouldn't be an issue really
But, probably won't work
raid 0 is silly
Though tbh
Most realistic use-case is them as two separate drives
RAID 0 is kinda, well, risky
raid 1? Z2?
I'd only do RAID 5 or better tbh
Z2?
Okay yeah maaaaybe only one of them, $160 is a tad much tbh
I'd be more comfortable spending that remaining 160 (and little extra) on 3x 1-2TB drives in RAID 5
parity is good yes meow
Mrrreooow
I wasn't really considering RAID 0, it was just a little suggestion for the two drives
Meh this is only if I get to go back home and not worry both the PC getting bombed again
With my salary I can afford one drive a month!!!!!!
they said the fans didnt work i was thinking they just all died 😭 what did the do for them to fall off
They done gave the GPU the CIA treatment
done beheaded the poor 1080
is this a good price
stole this from work today
Apple - Steal different
I don't even know
i think that’s typical for 9950X3D
@topaz veldt aren’t most of yours 119/120/121?
they are all 120s
ah yeah extremely typical then
the binning is probably razor tight with the CCDs being so tiny
Those meatballs are pouring now
okay thanks i just didn’t know
haven’t seen many asus boards with good chips
It is (for these days at least)
i wasn’t sure either which is why i consulted brother snail
because he’s had several of them
Yeah for casual gaming, not breaking records left and right 😆
casual use? don’t use pbo at all xD
I'll be honest, I like the silver look way more
A -15 or a -20 is safe enough after a day of testing. OCCT and Prime95 or a full night of Karhu
ehh
It varies by CPU but I just run +25 override and CO of -30
i can try to send it out monday
word
i daily what has survived upwards of a hundred hours in ycruncher vt3 which is -30
:3
Thanks, I wanted to know if I was doing it wrong. +50 override, -20 CO, and another -10 only on high frequency with curve shaper.
if i went with occt stability then i could run -40
i daily -15 because my cores are week
but my imc/glue is good
my 7800x3d is even worse apparently -10 causes instability lol
I run cinebench R23 once, call it “good” then complain in the support forum that Windows keeps crashing on me. 🤣
that’s so optimal
PS: season finale was peak.
two weeks in and kregg has fully assimilated to the biker life
Leaving a trail of baby viltrumites behind wherever he goes 😆
@shell void @slim pebble
Oh man I bought some AMD like 12 days ago
Oh you mean on 9950X3D? or X3D2?
I daily -10 cause I’m lazy and I don’t care about minimizing voltage on a cpu that sips 4W
bad cores cope spotted
X3D, will probably order my X3D2 next week. My house is a disaster with the flooring install, my PC is packed into boxes
Trying 6400 just set it and didnt change nothing else except to expo tweaked and the freq ofc
So if this is good after an hour im good to go?
OK yeah X3D is different - I wouldn't do -30 all core on that
The X3D2 is, basically, a 9850X3D and 9800X3D CCD, so -30 to -40 is doable
-20 all core and negative/positive core boost override minus 100 to plus 200 score similar. I was playing withem today couldnt crunch 46000 but its warmer today
The boost override is actually usually worse performing than just an undervolt
You can shave off a little more with curve shaper, another -5 or -10 at all the high frequency settings
Yeah I took it back off, was just for learning
Snails or pac whomever how long should I leave occt running before I call 6400 good?
I dont usually tune ram
i still see a lot of people in the Monitor Enthusiasts discord server that think DLSS increases input latency
it happens every couple of days
Kinda Nvidia's fault for having frame gen as part of dlss
5nail5 posts up 18 hour runs here. Honestly I don’t usually go crazy on RAM except for #trefi 65636
Maybe 2100 fclk, but that matters so little it’s not worth it on a daily.
If its stable just bumping frequency should be fine right? W/o other changes
did you set uclk = mclk? if not this is slower than 6000
I left it on auto but can check
can see in zen timings or hwinfo i think let me
zoom in
click the dimm in hwinfo summary
3hrs minimum
at least if you’re manually changing things
try to split it across 2( or more) stresses tho, like 1.5 hrs of yc vt3 and karhu
Oofs
Thats alright another day xD to many things on the list but was fun to mess with
6000 actually autoed to 2/1 on my board
My cores are great
I just reverted to expo 1 and double checked it back to 3000/3000
I just don’t care about absolutely squeezing the last .01% cpu performance on a machine that doesn’t see above 139fps
update yo bios that shouldn’t happen
The only OC I put effort into is Ram
This 9950x3d is slightly worse then my 9950x silicon lottery wise but just by a few points ~0.5% in some things
@merry stirrup did you see where I found out my H16M kits aren’t actually super bad
I just somehow never tested them on a non shit board
I bought a matching kit of my 5600 jedec T-Create H16M for my home server and threw it in the Gene for the meme and it deadass booted 8000 no problem lol
Watching this trying to pickup a thing or two

-------------------...
I run Karhu for 12-15 hours minimal
lmfao
i doubt it does 8000 stable
perhaps with 3w dimm power on ryzen
this seems sus
my new old ram comes monday
Is karhu free?
no
like 7$
don’t pay it though just wait till i’m home
fuck that guy nobody give him more money
Oh thats not bad, oh word fams
😭😭😭
it’s been like 2 years of him saying karhu 2 and then radio silence or his wife defending him
bet the wife’s boyfriend gets hella spoiled off that karhu money

damn floppa
it’s justified kyoko knows
you know the release cycled is fucked when the playboi carti fan is annoyed
I lowkey wanna find out
i’m half tempted to try benching the 9800x3d but 
Wait we mad at the Karhu guy now?
it’s just annoying idk why bro keeps saying specific dates and that it’s ready 😭 then nuffin
then when called on it his wife defends it
lmao
oh and also he wants like

an intrusive drm to stop pirates
deadass go look at my last messages in karhu server i started a whole revolution damn near 💀😭(not really)
bro also has binning data on every cpu ever and doesn’t share it lmao
allat telementary that isn’t public at all
6400 gdm off? gl
I can’t even find you in there
did they kick you or some shit lmao
use my id, i left lol
Yeah nothing comes up

What’s karhu?
RAM OC Software
Ohhhh oki
*ram stress test
lol
Ah yes my bad
Ok back to expo this time fr xD
I wonder if I could do 4 stick 8000 on a hero or some shit
lol

so fast
Alright thats all im gonna mess with for now. I hit 46k im content matched my 9950x
looks about right
i may have been banned from the karhu server no lie
nice
revokes your license
oh i see nvm
maybe not his system just sucks
tbh I would just go back to TM5 lmao
i will not be able to get another invite to my email unless he manually does it LOL
I mean i already have an activated copy i just wouldn’t be able to internet w/it open
Ya
i’ll wait the 2-3 weeks for his wife to respond
what
am confused
scroll up & read the karhu chronicles
im still confused
why
Lol I tried
lol
is karhus wife doing CS
Can I be silly for a second? Thanks
I want to eat a lemon battery

48K - do it
I know i know 47-48 is some wizardry ive been thinking.
Thats literally why ive been tinkering with all my settings trying to see what you did
Still debating if I’m gonna get a 7950X for the home server. Might just see how far the 7700x gets me and just scale up if I even need it
I handful of docker containers shouldnt be that much of a problem for the 7700x? 
Are you not joking about the 9950X3D2?
Im trying to catchup to something he did to his
what would the joke be
it's not real because it's so bad value
The 9950x, x3d, and x3d2 should all perform the same id imagine for cine except his extra tdp and maybe squeeze some juice but idk forsure. I do know I cant post negative 30-40 core, well stable
Uhh... That you actually bought it? No, really, if you do some work where the small performance gain actually matters — then cool
If not... Just, why bro
But that was before he hit 48
why not
Straight wizardry
i dunno i think im ready tho i think its like 2 days or 3 days
So he could crush me in benchs and everyone else on the lists 
Hes found smth
Fair enough!
I'd do that too if I had the money >:)
you think i can start grinding this weekend
and get it all done
One day!!
april 28 - plenty of time
small problem is that im in the DEEPEST of the pvp lobbies
im in the part where cheating is actually a problem
it's so funny when im holding an angle and people are trying to shoot me through the wall

@civic reef did you get your laptop yet
Will I be dumb and illiterate if I ask whether overclocking would get you closer to that result?
what do you mean
good morning vietnam
I could maybe try boost it, and taking out some limits to help more constant freq boost but im content for now, snails can enjoy his earned W. I myte mess with it at some point or await medusa/nova
He also has some ram oc i cant compete with as a nub
this chromebook continues to amaze me
the only laptop i’ve ever had that charges off of a 10 watt phone charger
72c
at 200w
consider that it is basically a shitty phone tho
but they’re honestly well thought out devices for school work no lie
Negative 50 core boost? (56.5 instead of 57?)
i mean it’s x86 to be fair i’ve just never seen a laptop bms that will accept less than 45 watts
also @young void

I found you in there, lets goo get them ranks
how’d you get beat by 加油HUAWEI!加油CHINA!我们又赢了!爱来自HUAWEI Dragon HTX 6090!
I myte be able to squeeze few hundred more points but im not reaching there this year
hey worm you can get 200 fps in battlefield v
when are they gonna update the default game selected 😂
odd that 3dmark lists the pro blackwell cards as 2x sli when that’s not even a thing
you won't get over 42k with a 600W card
i think this was the highest that i got in port royal with a 9800x3d, and an air cooled 5090
that was prob on 800w too
is there like a vrm problem with flashing the lightning bios
or can the power connectors just not manage it
the vbios only behaves more like a 750W vbios on single connector cards, and wattage reading is broken
it also just doesn’t really perform better
if you want >800W then you need to shunt and use EVC
ambient watercooling seems to be fine for 1000W
that PC at the trade show had a 1000W astral on normal watercooling at like 3.4GHz
1.1v 💪
i’ve been on the silent master vbios with a 0.88v limit for a few months now and chilling
the fans don’t go over 1000rpm most of the time
fans
did you flash the performance bios back or is the other side still a matrix
i kept the matrix vbios on the performance side
master performance is useless
higher fan speeds for no gain
the trio just calls it “gaming” and “silent” because it’s the same bios besides fan
it’s the same here
noticeably louder fans for no reason
the silent vbios won’t even ramp the fans up when the gpu avg edge temp hits 80c
it’s goated
i found a revision of the 5070ti master vbios with both a 400w vbios and silent fans
so i just daily that
Not a Number FPS? Mf are you running ts on a bunch of anti-matter😭
sounds good
intel stock 🚀
hoping it signifies ai bubble continues (sorry, not sorry)
and PC4 DIMMs 🚀 🌚
yo wtf im up 300%
Remember that WSB guy
Did you buy one share
Shoulda went all in
bro profited the price of a video game
My wife's boyfriend got me a new switch!
do you have a time machine i can borrow?
Yeah I make it in 2032
if i sell now i have to pay 18% tax
Should’ve sold at a loss like a man
literally couldnt, bought it at the lowest point
i will wait till crismas to sell it, then profit will be tax free 
Why is AMD up 70% in the past month?
ai
all tech companies
no no, not all
i don’t understand why the bubble is still bubbling when nothing new that’s consumer facing has happened and everyone hates ai now
but that’s just what my tiny brain makes of it idk
Theres alot normal peeps arent seeing
i’m just tired of ai being pumped into consumer facing products and having it shoved down my throat
To the point they paywalled grok
if corps wanna use it i could care less
the consumers dont control the market

the large companies making the investments do
that’s exactly the issue
they literaly found infinite GDP glitch
20$ goes in a circle and every time it passes through hands it gets counted
with like, the entire world atp
is it, the people making the majority of purchases arent regular people
companies don’t get money out of thin air
linde and messer would like to submit a formal complaint
make thin air thicker and sell it
idk i just find it hard to not feel like the economy is a ticking time bomb because there is no standard and it’s all based on dotcom-level nothingness
warpiss
get boated idiot
it is and things will get ugly
i saw some statistic back in the day about how 80% of digital funds were never backed by real currency in the first place
that number has to be much higher now
One day ill reach snails level
skynet won't be able to afford the electrical bill and shut down
just make a dyson ring what is so hard
Or itll get passed into the avg Joe through electric deals 
I still wish the US and China chose better names
Anything else really
a lot of this apprehension is coming from me being salty i haven’t profited off the ai boom because i pulled out of the market after liberation day

Skynet just idk what they where thinking lol
me:
I havent ran alot yet to sub to hwbot but trying to learn
basically buy hardware and do benchmarks
that’s the method
guess who just bought hardware to do benchmarks
this guy
floppa do you just add 3dmark to benchmate to be able to sub
you don’t need benchmate for it which is why it’s not in benchmate
oh
3dmark is its own thing
3dmark has its own validation and anticheat and whatnot
the other popular benches in benchmate do not
you click the submit result button and fill it out??
Whats system info? Is that a seperate app?
pretty sure they even have a submit to hwbot button
built into 3dmark and made by the same people
Oh then I just run cpuz and gpu z at the end and screenshot?
yes and post the link 3dm gives you
Thanks fams ill give a go
my 550 ti is kind of a shitter core bin so i’m not so worried about the last results i got
i have my eye on a 1070 for 25 bucks we’ll see if more bids drop
also my gt 630 doesn’t stand a chance because it’s a fermi version
sub anyways, you still get points
separated by arch i’m pretty sure
oh ok
it’s also ddr3 but it’s possible all fermi 630s are
yes
oh cool
the memory is stable as far right as the afterburner slider goes… can I do something in the vbios about that
use cheat engine to go past the limit
i’ll have to look into that
you probably know how to use cheat engine, literal same premise as whatever else you’ve used it for
im tired
i haven’t really but i’m sure it’s not the hardest thing in the world
reminds me of when i was a little kid using it to cheat in roblox
back when cheat engine was enough
go do 3dmark subs
today seems to be slow at work so i may take a break QCing computers to build computers
numero uno record still stands 
i have a couple
I am done for now
me likey
zzz
when r u getting that 5070?
Never
jerry torturing himself with a crappy video card instead of just ponying up for something good
he'll get 6090 trust
i think it's based that he chose to get a 4K monitor before getting a new GPU if he had to choose between the two
display matters more
@pallid marsh I just hit a 2x4 driving home
The tire seems fine but idk how to check for other damage
(2x4 plank not a 2x4 car)
Go under the car and look for scuffed bits
the skid plate is scuffed but that's probably from the 15 year old car
Look mostly around the lower suspension linkages and compare if anything looks different from the other side
it's also because im a cheapskate and will only buy something if it's a really good deal
yeah it's all different
most of the other side had to be replaced with aftermarket parts
Different like broken different or changed different?
Ohh oki
changed different
Seems ok to me
60 series perhaps, though that's a while away still
last i heard it was getting a Computex (mid 2027) launch, but that info is a few months old
60 series and then i buy a 5070ti from @merry stirrup
for my valorant game play
Never coming out
Comes out after GTA 6
I have ACC
subnautica 2 early access comes out next month
sometime in may if it doesnt get a last second delay
you disappoint me brother jerry
I gotta decide when I’m gonna get my 2080Ti’s
I could get em now but it would technically be more responsible to wait a couple weeks lmfao but
oh 2080 tis for llm?
u gonna get chineseum 22GB blower cards?
yes
blower is clutch for multi gpu because youre not choking the other cards
based
Finally someone understands the importance of blower cards
iirc Mark said that he has his Pro 6000 Blackwell Workstation cards limited to 300W because they choke eachother at 600W
the blower MaxQ variant makes more sense for multigpu
Blower 3090s exist but eBay sellers want $1,100 each lmfao
Thats a really dumb design for the 6000 cards ngl, of course they’ll choke each others out
it would probably be fine if they didnt cheap out with the TIM and use an aggressive fan profile
the p6000 bw uses toothpaste instead of liquid metal like the 5090fe

so it runs significantly hotter even though it should run cooler
every gpu without PTM pisses me off
did you say that you have the gaming trio the other day?
yeah
i have no idea what it uses but the temps are surprisingly good considering the mediocre looking heatsink and quiet fan profile
good enough for me lol
yeah it's a cozy gpu
sometimes i wish i had just kept my gaming trio 5070Ti instead of spending 3.5x as much on a 5090
hopefully i can get some money back when i sell or trade it in later

i dont appreciate the inefficiency of RTX VSR
a 5090 will use like 4x as much power to output the same image quality as a 5050
gotta talk to Mark and get that fixed
goddamit mark get on it
I just got back from a bar crawl, and my friend who i split ways with left his keys here
no idea where he went

Mark will fix everything 🙏
im surprised he hasnt texted you upon noticing that he doesnt have his keys
Smh look at the road
Might be too drunk for that
he left them here on purpose, i just have no idea how hammered he is now
we are leaving the door unlocked for him and hopefully he makes good decisions
Lock his keys somewhere at least (just in case)
we have legitmately nothing where we can lock them
In your car 
I will probably just stay up and wait for him to get back
the dude only had like 3 drinks in the span of 4 hours, was going very tame
bored
I have an extra 9950X3D and 48GB of RAM
and a terra
and low profile coolers
@turbid locust isnt a 16 core ryzen CPU and H24M quite literally exactly what youve been wanting recently?
rude smh
nah it’s just like 5nail wants retail - $1
Which like, respect, he can sell it for that lmao
But I don’t want to pay that
help the poor brother out, he just had his patio put in, he needs the funds
i give huge discounts but im very particular about who im willing to expose my info to
I sold Floppa my 2 month old 5070Ti for -$150 lmao
I've given my info to one person from lttcord, and then they got banned
i gave my 6900XT and some IEMs to a friend for free
wat
and i gave Kyoko the 5070Ti for $600 while they were selling for $950
💯
I would have sent you a kiss in the mail for that price tbh
I sold Floppa mine for $694.20 and I paid like 800 something for it lmao
oh shit i read that as you sold it for 150
OH lmao
Yeah naw bro we ain’t running a charity LMAO
Oh it was $909 lmao
yeah bro I was like damn
I bought my Titan card from that cheesecake fella a while back
coward
feel free to send it over, I can set up a go fund me
nah I just got sellers I use that are ezpz
I gave an rx 7600 and 32 gb of ddr4 3200 to my gf for free for her first pc build
who? me?
my brother gets shit hella discounted/free
I don't
I gave him a 4070, my sennheisers, an old dac amp for free, then sold him my oled for $200
bro is getting the deal of a lifetime
I sold my brother a 5600x, Board, ram, and 3070 for $450 in 2023
I gave my sister some iPads, monitors, a phone
And she's still a bitch
I sold 50 32GB PC4-2400T DIMMs for $7200
Titan Xps are similar in price to 1080Ti if youre cool with a 12GB but it sounds like you want 22GB+
ive heard that a lot of the models are optimized for 32GB
so dual 22GB/24GB is probably your cheapest method
He should have just bought a B70 for $950

real
or he should buy a b60 dual pro
Intel GPUs are so meh
B60 dual from maxsun
Didn’t see that (I hope they make a b70 dual one day)
Not when I can get two 2080Ti 22GBs for $700
Jaykihn said that there will be Crescent Island PCIE workstation dGPUs, that will be interesting
saved me from radeon cope land
those are full size monolithic Xe3p GPUs
i was considering a 9070 xt for $699 except it didn't bench super well in xiv testing
two generations newer than the B580/B60/B70 and made with 18A
the justification for 694.20 was that the exact card on amazon was 750 at the time i was buying
i had no reason to pay you 750 so i was like yeah lets do it lower
dude barely gave you a discount
(i got a board too bro)
i gave kyoko like 65% price
yeah i got mine when they weren’t available at msrp and its a nicer model
i got one of the only z790 mpower's in the states for it its ok
i got the hookup from michael
your z790 mpower has the loosest most ran through socket of all time
only took the worlds most convoluted shipping
mike didnt want to sell to me because he is an opp
touched by countless chinese and american fingers
yes although i havent seen a better lga 1700 result out of anyone here so 
most cpus blown up too
ive still never done any intel memory tuning
nobody tunes raptorlake cores better than me tho
ur gonna get the 13900KS and its gonna be perfectly functional and im gonna mald a little
i've only used alder lake on the mpower so if i had the top result that'd be scary
im gonna run it at 6000 xmp big man
i have the highest r23 result on rpl
in the z690-e
this is fair
sorry brother only one of us is still daily driving an i9 after years with no degradation
my cores are fine tho?
youre trying to make it out like i have a skill issue but it was more of me doing a final attempt before getting rid of the platform
I should have got that SF1000 when it was cheap a bit ago
how cheep?
$180
im happy i got an sf600 tho
oh wow that is good
Not that anyone cares, but I'd like to review my new work laptop HP elitebook 6 Gli 14"
The laptop is mostly fine
HP track pads so fucking ass holy shit it 2026 how are they still this bad feeling
that's how i feel after every time that it goes on sale
but i dont plan to do anything hardware related until nova lake so meh
i was just fricking with you because you held a R23 score over my head
my 14900K PC has to be rebooted every so often because it starts to behave weirdly, it's not rock solid stable
idk if it's the cpu or the board, and i don't have any interest in spending money to find out
i dropped the cpu down a flight of wooden stairs so it is what it is at this point
imagine SFF 52core bllc

it would be very amusing
600W CPU in a tiny case
but questionable practicality due to SF1000 being the peak of SFF PSUs
There’s an epyc mini itx board
im imagining 6090 as 800W minimum because 5090 is already happy to chill there and power density only goes up
unless they lower the voltage limit to 1.0v or something to maintain the 600W envelope
but youll probably want/need a normal sized 1600W PC to tune and benchmark with a 52c NVL CPU and 6090
there are some 1300's

that's news to me, i don't really follow the SFF market
i thought SF1000 was the bee's kneecaps
It is but there are some other A+ 1200 and 1300

it would be nice if an OEM managed to put out a high quality 1600W 120v SFF PSU
i think something like that would come out as 240v exclusive first though
epyc cpus are typically 350W so this doesnt surprise me
nova lake 52 core can peak at 750W if you have decent cooling
Pretty sure you can fit the most powerful ones in that board too
these boards are expecting to be installed in a rack case with high airflow
that pitiful vrm will probably choke if you can put a 500W CPU in it inside of a normal ATX case
Yeah, but still technically doable
im sure at least someone will make a mITX Z990 board
im hoping that asus will make a z990 gene because mATX is king
Would be cool
as we speak my foot is resting on my computer because it's a giant fulltower steel case
IM SO HYPED
id like to downsize to mATX if posssible but i plan to get the 52 core nova lake flagship
are you going to get both
bLLC+52c
i didn’t think a 52c bllc chip existed
ah yeah all of the dual compute tile SKUs have bLLC
oh shi okie
there are no cheaper dual tile variants
sounds good then i only have to buy one sku
theyre going to be expensive and they don't have a classic name
theyre not ultra 9 or anything at this point, theyre their own thing that's psuedo hedt
ah i see
that’s fine. i’d be willing to do like 1.2K maybe for the cpu
feel like that’s reasonable
im expecting $1000 flat
idk intel might want to charge more for a chip that claps up the 9950x3d2
idk 270K is arguably a better CPU than the 9950X and it's only $300-350
fair
it looks like intel is going to be aggressive next gen
they have a 6p12e 108MB bLLC SKU lined up
but whatever even if it's $1500 ill still want it
i only upgrade CPUs every 2-3 years typically so it's not a big deal
the little 6 core jawn
did you see when i posted the 2x64GB 9400 on 9600X leak the other day?
yeah i got it for like 75$ effectively from the roomie before he left
nah lemme see let me at it
& da 3070 for mom
unify x max? never heard of that, also wired just like the mpower
yeah origin code only does extreme high end mem kits iirc so this checks out
nova lake 10K+ MT/s gear 2 daily might actually be possible
i mean the 285K is reusing the IMC they intended to use with Meteor Lake so having something three generations newer do 10K+ is likely
jedec warrior
gigachads will run the official 2x1r 8000 jedec spec until other people do the FAFO for them rofl
yeah the official max spec is 2x1r 8000 jedec cudimm
i still haven’t been invoiced for it yet and i’m honestly not going to say anything
12800mt/s jedec mrdimms will come out for Diamond Rapids Xeon 7, but that's a 2027 enterprise thing
mister dimm
the method
yeah i don’t think mr is coming to consumer lol
definitely not
he said he would and then didn’t it’s not my fault fr
1usmus commented on the new expo spec on twitter though
it looks like threadripper zen 6 will support mr/hbdimm
oh nice
a court of law will agree
beautiful computer i think i may transition into blackout
https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-rtx-pro-4500-blackwell-server-edition-is-now-available-price-starts-at-e3670 #1 webscraper right here
if only threadripper wasnt ten million dollars i would have an ounce of excitement
yeah i can’t cough up thay much for fun
i don’t use my computer (main) for anything atp so
if it was just the best in everything it would be a different story, but youre paying like $5000 for an entry level HEDT platform that genuinely sucks in games
skill issue
yeah and personally i’m going to pass on that because if my computer isn’t fast at games people think it isn’t fast
xeon 6 is probably fine at games because theyre just intel 3nm avx512 Pcores
but i dont want to pay $2500 for a CPU, $1000 for a board, and $2000 for ram to have a fine experience
akn approved
MR APE SHIT GO APE MODE
chimpin it
Alexa explode this guy’s testicular gland
NOOOOOOO
FREAKY
i need one more of the norths 140mm stock fans
deadass just gonna take one from work 😭
well,ask, but i dont think theyre gonna charge me for it
wdym? why wouldn't you want to
side note, my apartment bought 3 cases of bapple today
exactly
oh right i forgot that bapple is back
we will be getting slammed tonight
it’s a good light beer but i don’t like it enough to buy another case this year
i wonder if craft computing has ever reviewed bapple
are you going for single dimm validations on 270K?
im bringing the extra OCF to work when i get it and ill ask to vbin there
g4 isnt fast remember
yeah but the bandwidth is amusing
also cpu-z validation sucks it doesnt need to be anymore stable than a windows desktop
but i will see
but also ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ill have to figure out wat bios i had and re do it
i think we'll move onto g4 standard with late gen ddr6
but for ddr5 yeah g2 makes more sense
nova lake will have a three generation newer IMC so im very curious what sort of speeds itll be able to run
Hear me out
Intel should bring back extreme edition branding for dual tile noval lake
they might
fire
It would go hard
XE would be sick
yeah I am very curious as to what they will call those insane skus
that is a real sku right there
Jaykihn said that as of today the dual tile SKUs are not branded in the normal U5/U7/U9 sense, they're stand-alone
we don't know how they'll be branded yet, but they use the "DX" suffix
it might be Core Extreme 495DX or something
Bro this is a terrible name for a processor
10980XE is a terrible name?
im 1000% confident that AMD will use 5xx branding to be +100 over Intel, and also match their desktop naming scheme with their mobile and embedded SKUs
that's what they always do
Ryzen 9 595X or whatever
"that is a real sku right there" - terrible name
😭
also this is the smallest thing ever about the north but the fact that it has rear io management built in is great
im begging Intel to release the bLLC SKUs on day one so that AMD stops doing the delay bullshit
10,000 and 11,000 are too much of a mouthful
wym?
i think 10950X sounds sick as hell, but theyre not going to change their mobile naming scheme
oh that's neat
it's more likely that we'll see Ryzen AI 9 595X3D2 or something
shoot me now
to be +100 over Intel and unionize mobile+embedded+desktop
someone DM 1usmus or someone else that would have zen 6 engineering samples and ask what theyre called
convince them to break NDA 
i wish we had a reputable AMD leaker like Jaykihn for Intel
how does jaykihn get all his info it's nuts
well e samples are generally named "GENIUNE INTEL 0000" and shit like that
even in marketing videos on laptops i have seen that
tru but there must be someone that knows this info like Jaykihn but it keeping it to themselves
true
id love to know what Jaykihn's job is
