I tried updating the drivers but the screen changed colors before i could

I saw it was running version 560.smth and i could update to version 580

[fervent chasm]

it sounds like corrupted drivers, old drivers, or dying gpu

or maybe the connection is just unreliable, meaning the hdmi/dp or whatever

[daring stag]

I will check all options , thx for the tips

[topaz veldt]

it is, but there's just so many racks of it

each rack has that stack at the top

I accidentally left Karhu running for almost 7 days now

I feel obligated to keep it running

it’s probably up because you sold it

based off your cpu bins

tomorrow i will have the sp score of the turd 7800x3d

So turns out they sent me the wrong shit

T14s, not T14

[green marsh]

@topaz veldt i have an issue - what do i do with my 4x16GB 3200CL14 b-dies 😄 . I will have to give my brother my spare 3900X/X570/1080 Ti rig, he doesn't need 64GB RAM, so i am giving him 32GB DDR4-3000 (yeah, not ideal, but he won't notice the difference). But now i don't really have a DDR4 system to put them into, unless i put them in the Threadripper LLM system - but threadripper hates those modules. Do i get some DDR4 platform just to use them ? 😄

[brisk jolt]

Either sell it for cash or keep as backup imo

[green marsh]

the prices on ebay are stupid

4x16GB DDR4-3200 CL16 kits go from $200 to $400 with no pattern whatsoever

and nobody sells CL14

[green marsh]

this was probably closest to what i have, except mine is 4x16GB and not 2x32GB from a 4x32GB kit 😄 https://www.ebay.com/itm/327087454272?_skw=G.Skill+64GB+DDR4-3200

@smoky orbit @low sorrel Lmao

Contacted, offered to refund or pick out a new model

Mentioned that they just got an actual T14, but with an R7 4750U for $20 more

Chose that instead

[low sorrel]

Nice

[civic reef]

The T14s did look pretty sleek though

Also that T14 w/ a 4750U was what I originally wanted to buy a few months ago, but went out of stock

I got the laptop I wanted yippee!!!

Big words big man

[brisk jolt]

@trim agate ok ive just set up the mesh in the room and the connection’s already way better

[green marsh]

should i sell my 3200CL14 64GB kit and hope for the best price and use the funds for something else, or should i try to make a cheap LGA1700 system maybe ?

[smoky orbit]

30 CAD (if it’s ddr4, it better be) take it or leave it

If it’s somehow ddr5 -35 CAD

[green marsh]

haha, maybe if 10 times that and in euros, i might think about it

[steel stream]

https://videocardz.com/newz/doom-the-dark-ages-could-have-needed-110gb-of-baked-global-illumination-data-ray-based-gi-reduced-it-to-0 this is pretty interesting to see

[smoky orbit]

Then im outa here

[smoky orbit]

It’s not even a 3600 kit how are we talking about 300€?? The normal msrp is like 150 CAD max

[green marsh]

it's Samsung b-die. DDR4-3200 CL14-14-14-34

[smoky orbit]

Still not worth 300€ qwq

A buffered ecc kit with those specs (if they even exist) would be worth a lot but not regular ddr4

(And no, ram crisis prices don’t count)

[green marsh]

for context

and mine is 4x16GB

[edgy laurel]

and people think we've made no progress in the last 15 years

[brisk jolt]

les fuckin go
i hooked up a mesh and connected ethernet to the PC and my speed is slower

[topaz veldt]

Why is it that my wife is always the one to get to go and check on our vacation place?

[steel stream]

yeah I really like that they gave us this info and the comparison, cool to see benefits in the form of real numbers

[topaz veldt]

I'm stuck having to visit a stupid data center to make sure this rollout is going well

[steel stream]

think of sunny places

[topaz veldt]

Meh

[strange ginkgo]

to be honest i would have prefered a faster version that costs more storage space over forced raytracing
extra storage is far easier to get than faster GPUs

[steel stream]

yeah completely valid point, I think we are just now at a point where RT and PT are becoming valid graphics options, and we just need some games to push that forward you know?

[strange ginkgo]

if my GPU would die right now I would replace it with a way weaker old used card

being able to play new PC games is great but there is point where it's just too expensive and not worth it

Hi guys i js upgrade my laptop with a 7th gen intel cpu with 16gb ram should i install atlas os?

[slim pebble]

It will be a long and difficult wait for the next computex and NVL. BLLc is going to be so good.

[keen wigeon]

Another debloat script?

[slim pebble]

It’s AMD, I’m expecting a 2100 fabric glue limit or something terrible.

[brisk jolt]

instead of elephant glue they'll be using painter tape this time

[keen wigeon]

intel is gearing up for competitive proc again. Hopefully we can see some of that coming through. AMD hasn't delivered anything special for a while.

where'd you get these slides from lol? they look like edited ARL slides

[keen wigeon]

give me 48 PCIE lanes damnit

[brisk jolt]

i just stole them off the images tab whilst searching “novalake” lmaoao

[keen wigeon]

I want all the lanes. The chipset architecture can go to hell. All CPU all the time 😄

[steel stream]

h

[keen wigeon]

Chipset lanes are fake lanes.

fake I tell you!

Actually that's fine. But they're already behind. Give me gen6

[brisk jolt]

give me a chonky z990i with 3 nvme slots and killer mem oc thanks

[steel stream]

I might just grab Z990 ProArt tbh

[keen wigeon]

also fuck intel storage tech thing

get rid of it on client;

[brisk jolt]

i think i might be skipping AMD entirely till DDR6 comes out

in which i might just still go intel xd

but i can’t fit a 5090 master in my standard size epoch so i have no interest in a smaller build

gonna just get an xl case and leave it on the floor

[steel stream]

this is the method

[arctic bronze]

Best i can give ya is a pre-eaten sandwich

[keen wigeon]

I've been an arlo customer since they launched. The services have gotten better but every single time I really need security camera footage the cameras failed to capture. It is like they capture everything all the time but once I need something it fails me. So I upgraded my service to 24/7 recording. Little did I know I have to use the ass tier wifi bridge for that. Problem is that bridge is hot garbage and my cameras can connect via my wifi network.

[granite dirge]

man.... but what about the red.... man

[keen wigeon]

So, I upgraded my service - found out the limitation and asked for a refund after an hour of troubleshooting with Arlo support.

[steel stream]

Oh damn, so no local temp storage? Just cloud based?

[keen wigeon]

They told me "Our policy is that we don't provide refunds but we can downgrade your subscription during your next billing cycle." Bitch I pay yearly. That was over $200

[steel stream]

I'll be honest I don't understand this reference

[keen wigeon]

So I told them to pound sand and ordered a pile of unifi cameras.

vavle makes good stuff, I agree

[ripe needle]

its price point

[keen wigeon]

scalping a controller? That's a bold move Cotton.

[steel stream]

I'm sure it's a good controller, but good guy Valve releasing it means it's got +50% more value

[ripe needle]

it has a lot of features that modern pro controllers dont have

[steel stream]

Let's see if it pays off for 'em

[keen wigeon]

Like what? 1000 extra sweat points? lol

[ripe needle]

for scalpers sure, for the consumers? $100 is a steal

[keen wigeon]

It is going to be a good controller but good lord

its already the best controller imo

that's like lining up to ensure you're a virgin for life

pocket analogue!

woot woot

[ripe needle]

gyroscopic aiming, back pedals, good repairability, joysticks that cant get stick drift, and a 40 hour battery life that comes with a dock so you can just sit your controller down after using it

not to mention the trackpads

[keen wigeon]

the stick drift is to be proven

[steel stream]

gyroscopic aiming is a somewhat common feature

[keen wigeon]

and annoying lol

$100 lizard mode is unacceptable man

[smoky orbit]

Gotta wait for bringus studio to test if it works with the janky Bluetooth adapter he made

[pure garnet]

give me some form of useable input

[pure garnet]

it’s reliant on steam input

[ripe needle]

adding a game to steam takes two seconds

[wraith steeple]

This is a massive reason I see why emulators are a thing. The hobby has been getting ludicrously expensive

[pure garnet]

using the xinput fallover on other controllers also takes 2 seconds

[smoky orbit]

But the “adapter” just picks up the inputs

[steel stream]

I really need to figure out how to get proper motion control for Wii emulation

[pure garnet]

products can have flaws you don’t have to defend the entire thing for it to be a good controller

[steel stream]

I want to play 4K Wii sports resort

[pure garnet]

there’s no inputs to pick up

it doesn’t have directinput, xinput, or any equivalent

I've seen some glimpses of it, looks amazing

Hey newegg, this "deal" ain't really a goddamned deal, even today:
https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?sdtid=19493790&ItemList=Combo.4867009
Great CPU + Hella Overpriced RAM + Overpriced SSD + a mid tier "acceptable" PSU ain't the bundle you're trying to make it out to be

nearly 300 bucks for a 1TB Drive is absolutely bat-shit insane

and over 500 bucks for a 6400 CL32 32GB Kit? Nobody with a brain's gonna buy that for THAT much money

[vague oriole]

idk

[frank zealot]

can you? Isn't the radio on the Wii fairly proprietary?

I don't think it's BT

[brisk jolt]

i see a 6400CL32 32gb kit for 400 rn XDDDD

[smoky orbit]

It’s bt

[brisk jolt]

alternatively its 350

the 400 is royal Z silver

[frank zealot]

that's just proving that their "deal" really ain't a goddamned deal

[steel stream]

I think you can you use BT and then just make your own sensor bar

[frank zealot]

you can use candles instead of a sensor bar

[steel stream]

yeah that too

[brisk jolt]

its nice that i see trident royals here calming down but these prices are still nowhere near what I’d wanna pay for bnib 32gb d5s

[frank zealot]

or buy a an aftermarket usb one, since the "sensor bar" is just LEDs, and not actually a sensor

[brisk jolt]

personally the most im paying is 240 for 32gb d5 and must be a pretty decent Adie

[steel stream]

I think you can also just use JoyCons over BT too without a sensor bar

[frank zealot]

I just bought a USB one and ran it off the TV. Since I had both my Hacked Wii and a stock Wii U hooked up to it

are you joining the 5070 Ti -> 5090 club

[pure garnet]

no im gonna just build an entirely new system for nova lake/60 series

[steel stream]

ah

yeah I need to think about 60 series

I really want NVL at the minimum, but 60 series will probs be quite the pretty penny

[pure garnet]

5090 would be nice but im already kinda corrupted by wanting a master or similar to run the 800w bios on

so i'd just be burning a lotta money for not much

[steel stream]

I think I might swing for 6080

[sharp heart]

6070

[wraith steeple]

[cosmic gazelle]

kyoko

send me your ewaste NOW!!!

[steel stream]

I want an uncut die next gen

[pure garnet]

@merry stirrup bought it all

less the 980ti which im using

[steel stream]

idk what I'll do with my 5070 Ti when I upgrade

[hoary hatch]

I should have fucking bought a 5080

[hoary hatch]

Door stop

[cosmic gazelle]

https://tenor.com/view/angry-druski-gif-2006985137477142190

[steel stream]

nah 70 Ti was the right move this gen

[pure garnet]

if i move to ohio im giving this comp to my roommate

[viral iron]

you should've bought a 5090

[pure garnet]

she's on a 3900x/2070 iirc?

[hoary hatch]

$950 5080 was appealing

[viral iron]

very wholesome.

[wraith steeple]

I'm not sure if I should take part in 60 series

[cosmic gazelle]

my new ewaste journey is trying to find a cheap laptop platform with an mxm user replaceable gpu because it sounds fun

[hoary hatch]

I might try AMD next gen

[steel stream]

true true true

[hoary hatch]

Because fucking Xe3 is kill

[steel stream]

I'm thinking we will get future Arc GPUs tbh

[pure garnet]

rob a framework owner

[cosmic gazelle]

is framework mxm?

[pure garnet]

gpu is upgradable but i dont think it's mxm

[hoary hatch]

Just not xe3

[cosmic gazelle]

mxm gpus are basically worthless because nothing uses them

that’s kind of my rationale here

[pure garnet]

😭

[hoary hatch]

And Xe4 will be another 2 years probably

Although I think I would be upgrading closer to Xe4 release anyways

[cosmic gazelle]

$1200 for 5060 performance lmao

[steel stream]

I mean makes sense right, not enough of an upgrade from current gen

[pure garnet]

i almost had my sister buy a framework

[merry stirrup]

robbed

[pure garnet]

then i had her buy a base spec mba instead

gotta be smart here

[steel stream]

I would never recommend Framework to someone not in this server tbh

[merry stirrup]

nah

[steel stream]

yah

[pure garnet]

the sole rationale i had in my head was i’m gonna be the one stuck fixing it

[steel stream]

yeah, that's about it

[pure garnet]

she likes the m4 air though

[steel stream]

and most people want sturdier machines I think

more solid

[brisk jolt]

jesus christ

im assuming that 5070 12gb config is with 3gb modules?

[pale grove]

me and my dad got my sister a framework 12

[cosmic gazelle]

just wait until i put this into a 14 year old alienware or some shit

[pure garnet]

yah

[steel stream]

laptops of doom and despair

[young void]

And darknessss

[merry stirrup]

i have accepted that anything but the most basic of repairs is out of the question for newer products but that’s all people want to do anyways

the concept of framework to me doesn’t make any sense

[brisk jolt]

im becoming more hopeful of ram prices after seeing h24m bnib at 517 sgd xd

[pure garnet]

i just applied to a computer repair store

[merry stirrup]

in 4 years when my laptop is old i want to replace it for many other reasons than it being slow

notably chassis wear

[cosmic gazelle]

rebuttal: the cheap shit never stopped being replaceable

[wraith steeple]

Building that pure air-cooled Torrent build is a bit symbolic for me. It represents the beginning of the end of an era

[steel stream]

yeah I like new chassis's chassises?

[pure garnet]

my thing with framework is the pricing is too high for a laptop missing parts

[merry stirrup]

idk

[pure garnet]

i can build to order a thinkpad with the spec i want for similar money to a diy edition framework

[merry stirrup]

chassi

[merry stirrup]

wym

[steel stream]

oh god not a thinkpad

[merry stirrup]

i don’t want new parts in an old chassis for ghe cost of a new laptop is what i was getting at myself

[pure garnet]

sorry i bought a t14 for a good deal

[merry stirrup]

that is not a plus to me although beneficial to the environment

[steel stream]

abolish thinkpads

[pure garnet]

when raptor mobile was still new i got my alder mobile thinkpad for 500 bucks in warranty

[wraith steeple]

If it ain't an IBM Thinkpad, I'm not interested

[pure garnet]

and raptor mobile at that sku was just alder anyway

[wraith steeple]

[pure garnet]

so it was like the latest model for peanuts

[steel stream]

give me the new XPSs or a Macbook

[cosmic gazelle]

sorry i meant repairable

i fixed a buddy’s i3 11g4 whatever the fuck that naming scheme was and it was like building legos

[pure garnet]

i had an xps but the carbon fiber soft touch thing got sticky

i had so many laptops in college 😭

[steel stream]

mine has stayed pretty good, but it's peeling a little bit

[pure garnet]

m1 14" pro -> razer blade 14 -> xps 13 -> zephyrus g14 -> thinkpad t14 gen 3

[cosmic gazelle]

if i get this i could upgrade the gpu

[pure garnet]

https://tenor.com/bP8Rx.gif

[cosmic gazelle]

and it has 67 in the name so that’s a plus

[steel stream]

I might buy a Macbook Pro over the summer tbh

[pure garnet]

the macbook pro is great but my campus had a rule where you had to install an antivirus and their policy key on macs

vs just connecting on linux and just the key on windows

so the xps and thinkpad both had linux on them because i didn't want malware on my stuff

[cosmic gazelle]

????

how could they make you do that

[pure garnet]

through the wifi policy

if you don't have the key installed you're not authenticated and the key checks for an antivrus on macs

[steel stream]

yeah we've started something similar but I just use the guest WiFi

[pure garnet]

on linux it didn't require anything because the only people that ran linux were me and the professor i was studying under

[cosmic gazelle]

so

who had more of their beard migrate down their neck

[civic reef]

Chips

[pure garnet]

born to nyarch forced to debian

[civic reef]

Hilarious thing

Laptop arrived but it's a T14s, not T14

[cosmic gazelle]

isn’t that bad

[civic reef]

The store offered a full refund or other laptop

I just chose to get another T14 that they listed yesterday, identical to the one I ordered but 4750U

[civic reef]

Very
Soldered RAM, less space for heat dissipation, no RJ45

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah bummer

[cosmic gazelle]

ever think about one of these jawns

[pure garnet]

t14g1

[merry stirrup]

but that doesn’t mean it’s designed in a manner to be fixed or that you can source parts

[civic reef]

I'd rather be dead than use another dual core

[civic reef]

T14s is soldered only

T14 atleast has mixed

[cosmic gazelle]

1 is true, it’s just cheap enough to not be anti consumer because they don’t care enough

however i needed a charging port and they were like 2 bucks

[cosmic gazelle]

supports a 4 core 8 thread i7 that’s competitive with a like 10th gen i3

okay maybe not quite

[merry stirrup]

not bad

[merry stirrup]

at the same power level as the desktop chip yes

[civic reef]

Yyyeaah no I'd rather my $300 T14 with a 4750U

[cosmic gazelle]

that’s a worse cpu tho lol

oh

you have a ryzen i thought you meant haswell-u

lmao

[pure garnet]

hey that’s like us pricing! nice

[civic reef]

~w~

[cosmic gazelle]

if yours comes w ssd that’s pretty good

[civic reef]

256GB, nothing special

[sharp heart]

256GB more than 0

[civic reef]

Yay :>

[young void]

Absolutely no one, not a soul:

[civic reef]

I should ask if they'd switch the 256GB out for a 512GB if I give them my old PM961

[young void]

The news sais the wildest things sometimes xD

[civic reef]

Actually no I shouldn't

Would probably put some no name drive

[frank zealot]

I open a 6 page PDF (Which even has images and tables, so it's not that dense)
Adobe: "This appears to be a long document, summarize with AI?"

.... if 6 pages is a "long document" I have questions about the hundred / thousand page PDF that I've had to deal with before

[civic reef]

I'll just use an NVMe enclosure
They're only $15 anyway

[sharp heart]

i would put it into minecraft parkour peter griffin dialogue creator

[civic reef]

Wtf
I've barely worked with any documents but I wouldn't call anything sub 20 page long

6 pages is noting, ESPECIALLY when it has images and tables, which count as 0.5 pages

Tell Adobe AI to delete itself

Or, errr, remove its French language pack

Hi Poignée!!!!

[young void]

Notes odds of being attacked by a AWOL dolphin is slim but never none

[smoky orbit]

and you should keep the other pomputer for backup

[civic reef]

😭

[sharp heart]

how much of that 6 page document is just title and cited sources

[civic reef]

The desktop, you mean?

[frank zealot]

Nevermind I'm pretty sure that 2/3 of this doc was generated with AI

[smoky orbit]

hewoowowoowwow

[civic reef]

Hruu!!!!!?

[frank zealot]

well under 1 page, so not much

[smoky orbit]

the pm961

[smoky orbit]

am goody, u?

[civic reef]

That's good to hear!!!!

[smoky orbit]

when is the upgraded t14 coming?

[civic reef]

It's just going to live as an external drive for games

[civic reef]

Tomorrow!

[smoky orbit]

oh yayyayayayaya

[smoky orbit]

nicey

[civic reef]

I'll definitely need it for that since I just bought BF1 & BF4 (They're like 80GB each) for my account, will need to grind alot to return to "my" old account's progress

[smoky orbit]

oof they are heavy

[civic reef]

Yyeaaah, I might need a bigger drive later on lol

Internal though, higher priority

[smoky orbit]

and less likely to be bottlenecked by a usb adapter

[civic reef]

USB 5Gb shouldn't be toooo bad, it'll atleast be faster than SATA drives (accounting for overhead)

[smoky orbit]

wait, the t14 can have a sata drive?

[civic reef]

Nope, that's been removed as a feature since the ThinkPad T480 I believe

[smoky orbit]

ohhhh oki

[civic reef]

Anyway, what're you working on?

[smoky orbit]

packing up my components to go back home next week, day dreaming about going ewaste/trashed pc hunting

[civic reef]

Ooooo
Sounds fun tbh :3

[smoky orbit]

and finally wearing my skirts again too

[civic reef]

What sort of stuff have you found before?

[civic reef]

Omg that's great!!! X3

[smoky orbit]

nothing much, mostly old workstation lp gpu, I would love to find fans, standard atx boards and other stuff too

[smoky orbit]

yeeeeesssss, can't wait

[civic reef]

LP GPUs like?

[smoky orbit]

low profile ati cards like hd 3400 (iirc) (most of what I found were ati cards)

[civic reef]

Ooooh those are nice :3

[green marsh]

Well, that was a weird one... My brother called me yesterday "My PC broke, GPU fan went 100% and the screen black" etc He brought it to me today, connected it, powered on, it boots, but display is only 1024x768. Weird. Checked GPU-Z, GPU works. Tried to install Radeon drivers, failed. DDU, restart, driver installs and everything works fine.

Did the driver die in a way that it broke itself ? 😄

[frank zealot]

depending on what it's doing when it chokes to death, drivers can self-corrupt, yup

And that's not an AMD Thing, I've had NVidia do it, too

[shell void]

M5 Ultra Mac Studio launch at WDDC next month perchance

[green marsh]

everything M4 will be M5 soon. That is why they are removing everything M4 except the stock they already have made

[frank zealot]

commentators: "Apple needs to figure out it's AI strategy"

Apple: Meh, fuck those AI clowns. We're gonna cut max RAM on these bitches.

[shell void]

no point in wasting 512GB of ram on a M3 Ultra anymore when the M5 Ultra is going to obliterate it in one month

[frank zealot]

Is the M5 Ultra gonna have a 256GB or 512GB Option?

[turbid locust]

[steel stream]

weird fuck ass people

[wraith steeple]

We in MI should build a wall between us and Ohio

[brisk jolt]

crazy how people here are still trying to scalp their shitty bin ram for 470 while CL26 somehow respawned at the same price bnib

[wraith steeple]

Yes we have been shitting on Ohio way before it became mainstream. And it's part of Michigan pride

[hoary hatch]

When Intel Ohio build out is complete you'll be screaming to tear down that wall

[steel stream]

if it is ever complete

if they do complete it i'll live right on the border and commute

[hoary hatch]

Elongated muskrat might bankroll it who the fuck knows

[wraith steeple]

With the state of the field I doubt it'll come through fruition

[steel stream]

are you talking about Elon Mosque?

[wraith steeple]

Though that's everywhere RN

[placid blaze]

As a Cincinnatian I have never driven on any road in Ohio as bad as the average street in Detroit

With potholes that bad I don't even know why you guys bother with speed bumps

[wraith steeple]

Even us Detroiters hate our own roads

[fervent chasm]

Doesn’t Apple have a ton of contracts at old prices still?

[frank zealot]

they might? but Apple isn't going to fuckin' miss out on profit

If they can charge 400% more for RAM? They fuckin' gonna, even if they didn't pay that

[fervent chasm]

Maybe I’m thinking of another company

Ah ok, those were in 2025

[cosmic gazelle]

@pure garnet sooo it turns out mxm gpus are worthless because the laptops that take them aren’t just obsolete, they’re also incredibly overpriced

[fervent chasm]

With Samsung and SK Hynix

But those expired now I guess

[hoary hatch]

He wants to build stupidfab in Texas with Intel 14a process

He should unstupid and work out a deal to use the already underway Intel Ohio shell and accelerate 14a deployment there

[shell void]

i would be surprised if they don’t

[steel stream]

nope has to be in Austin Texas obviously

let's contribute to the population boom even more

[hoary hatch]

SpaceX has proposed a $55B development plan for stupidfab in yeehaw

Which would put the time scale at, what, 2030 at the earliest?

[smoky orbit]

@civic reef, @late atlas and @analog scroll should I shunt mod my 1080?

[late atlas]

See if you can push 1000w through it

[smoky orbit]

it only has an 8 pin pcie connector qwq, (and I only have a 750w psu)

[late atlas]

You can get 500 then

[smoky orbit]

might be doable

[late atlas]

You will

[smoky orbit]

I'll see, I don't wanna kill it

[smoky orbit]

x3

[brisk jolt]

the 3rd one is the 1080

[edgy laurel]

ffs

[late atlas]

You ever seen the fuck around and find out graph?

That's the type of mentality you need for it

[turbid locust]

Yeah

[steel stream]

might as well give him @ everyone

[late atlas]

Make jerry mod

[edgy laurel]

I'll vote for that.

but they are oppressing us!

LTT staff just check in whenever they remember

[edgy laurel]

Maybe now, yeah. IIRC Jake started it, but of course he's gone now.

[cosmic gazelle]

i would make a good mod

send me your ewaste or get banned

[viral iron]

i love linus tech tip.

[steel stream]

yeah I think one of the mods said they are kind off just hands off now

[frank zealot]

Too many people here dream of Linus' tip

[steel stream]

mods just maintain it now

[wraith steeple]

[late atlas]

I can already imagine it

[frank zealot]

And occasionally Elijah or other folx just randomly drop by and say hi

[late atlas]

And disappear

[frank zealot]

Elijah Elijah Elijah

Lets see if the summon works this time

[late atlas]

Elijah if you don't get here and send a message you're gay

[frank zealot]

HAHAHAHAHA

5 minute mute for spamming lololol

[late atlas]

Lmao

[steel stream]

wait who

[late atlas]

Bass I'm guessing

[steel stream]

oh yup

[frank zealot]

he tried to send "Elijah" in 3 successive messages, but that's Warshipped for spamming lol

if you send the same thing 3 times in a row (even in diff channels) it gets you warshipped lol

[steel stream]

funny ass mute ngl

[edgy laurel]

Oh, thats right. He'll appear now but hours later after his daily name check

[lunar comet]

Ello chat, just ran my yearly components check and saw my 9800x3d sitting at 51c at just 4-7% cpu usage with my room temp at 26C. Been like that for a year now and had no problems whatsoever. Just wondering if its normal.

Im using my old deepcool ak500 air cooler (not a fan of aios) repasted with a kryonaut back in november.

[frank zealot]

sounds about right

[frank zealot]

it's perfectly fine

idle doesn't mean anything, anyways.
Only gaming and/or load temps matter

[steel stream]

oh does he just ctrl + f or smth

[frank zealot]

uh huh lol

[pure garnet]

idle power on ryzen is like 30w so it's never gonna be super cool

[steel stream]

yeah that makes sense

[lunar comet]

Havent monitored gaming temps yet but whats a good temp range to expect before it gets concerning?

[edgy laurel]

what I usually do is mentions: guiltyspark_ for myself

[steel stream]

ahh

[edgy laurel]

or I guess that only works if tagged

[steel stream]

yeah i just check pings and that's it

[fervent chasm]

Yah I do the search too

[pure garnet]

as long it’s not throttling it’s fine

[lunar comet]

95C? Well ive been gaming with it for a year and i havent got any throttling issues. Not that im aware of.

[pure garnet]

then yeah you’re fine

unless you used like toothpaste it wouldn’t have dried out this early

[steel stream]

damn I gotta get off of this server

[lunar comet]

The generous amount of kryonaut ive pasted it should last me

[edgy laurel]

just times you've been mentioned?

[steel stream]

yup

[edgy laurel]

well fuck me then

[steel stream]

https://tenor.com/view/the-wire-clay-davis-shit-sheeit-isiah-whitlock-jr-gif-20285534

[frank zealot]

85C+

[fervent chasm]

Can someone check me I’m on mobile

[frank zealot]

X3D needs to be a little cooler than non-x3d

[steel stream]

I think 9000 series goes up to 95 now

9000 series X3D that is

[pure garnet]

other way round i thought

[steel stream]

I think 7000 series X3D runs warmer, but throttle point is lower

[fervent chasm]

Half of that is me showing you my app progress

[pure garnet]

the 7800x3d is incapable of thermal throttling it uses like 80w in prime95

[lunar comet]

I stress tested it with occt last year and i think it shot up to 95c

[steel stream]

yeah thats fine for 9800X3D

[frank zealot]

You can do better with cooling.

[steel stream]

if its not throttling

[wraith steeple]

I'm back

[brisk jolt]

thats a scenario you’ll never encounter except compiling shaders since 7800x3d is basically a constant 80w gaming

[steel stream]

do it again!

[frank zealot]

did you learn a lesson?

[lunar comet]

Planning to get the dc vc assassin

[wraith steeple]

[frank zealot]

did you learn a lesson?

[steel stream]

no regerts

[lunar comet]

9800x3d btw

[brisk jolt]

that cooler is overkill and prob more expensive over a phantom spirit

also VC just suck on AMD

[lunar comet]

But hey i dont have any problems that im aware of with my ak500.

[brisk jolt]

that cooler is already fine

[lunar comet]

Fr?

[frank zealot]

it's a single tower cooler and probably not quite enough for the 9800x3d

[brisk jolt]

amd temps just love to be high

[brisk jolt]

nah it is outside max output aka compiling shaders

[wraith steeple]

That being my first mute had me laughing more than anything else

[brisk jolt]

i know peeps on axp90x47s with the 9800x3d albeit undervolted, they dont throttle unless in very CPU heavy scenarios and shaders

hell even x37s is the limit

ill specify its the x47 CU and it goes to like 120w on 9800x3d consistently b4 throttling

[frank zealot]

and a stock 9800 can clear 150w which isn't insignificant for a single tower cooler

[brisk jolt]

amd generally is just a bitch trying to get “good” temps on anyway kek

[steel stream]

temps schemps

they just run as hot as they can

[brisk jolt]

the LP coolers I stated had the fan running like a jetengine btw

one of the peeps that taught me SFF stuff said that lpcooling am5 is stupid in general if you care about noise and temps/not throttling

[frank zealot]

Who wants to hear a funny joke?

Ryzen 3 Existed

(which fun fact, hasn't been a thing since the sort-of 4000 series)

so it's been 6 years since any form of ryzen 3 really existed

[brisk jolt]

thats until the fire nation attacked ofc

[pure garnet]

realistically do the ryzen 3s need to exist anymore

[frank zealot]

so realistically it's been 7-8 years since Ryzen 3 had an actual retail release

[pure garnet]

the r5 sits at like $200

[frank zealot]

people buy ryzen 5000's because they're cheaper still

Even though AMD should have murdered that line 2-3 years ago

[brisk jolt]

time to throw out the turdiest of the turd and give people 4c chips and let them get fucked by d5 prices

[frank zealot]

I less mad about 4c chips, when there's the option to easily upgrade to a newer gen and 6, 8, 12, or 16 cores

[hoary hatch]

Core i3 does still exist
But Intel does a lot more OEM sales

[frank zealot]

But the 4c chips would actually have to exist

[brisk jolt]

ah okay amd heard your answers, the next R3 will be 2c

[frank zealot]

That's already a thing, it's called "Athlon"

[brisk jolt]

the 6 other cores were so shit it was worth 0 in total

[frank zealot]

Think I can save it?

[steel stream]

nope straight in the bin

[frank zealot]

(absolutely lol)

[pure garnet]

intel also actually owns a fab

[steel stream]

I think they own a couple

[smoky orbit]

[shell void]

derbauer tested the ryzen 7300x equivalent epyc am5 processor and it sucked for games

it was substantially slower than the 7600x even when overclocked

6 cores is the bare minimum to not nuke performance in modern games

[smoky orbit]

"fork found in the kitchen" type of results ngl

[cosmic gazelle]

4790k and 1080 ti is all you need

[shell void]

amd could feasibly resurrect ryzen 3 with more cores next gen but i dont think they will

[cosmic gazelle]

aren’t ccds gonna be 12 cores

couldn’t they make the 5s 8 cores and the 3s 6

[frank zealot]

rumors say yes, but we will have to see

[steel stream]

yeah CCDs are becoming 12 cores

[frank zealot]

Has it offically been confirmed?

[steel stream]

offically no afaik

but every leak and rumor says so

[vale cosmos]

at that point why would they not just sell it as an R5? how mould they strip to have a 10300x be different from a 10600x? i guess unless R5 is 8 cores, R7 is 12, R9 is 16?!

[frank zealot]

that I do believe, and I fully expect it.

But, who knows what's gonna happen

[vale cosmos]

whats a ccd?!

[steel stream]

the core chiplet

[brisk jolt]

cao compact disk

[vale cosmos]

ah

[brisk jolt]

you’re no fun

[steel stream]

all business 24/7

[merry stirrup]

1080ti is all you need i agree

[shell void]

the CCDs are 12 cores each, and it’s safe to assume that Ryzen 7 will use a single 12 core CCD, but we don’t know how much they’ll disable the Ryzen 5s yet

[steel stream]

[hoary hatch]

Intel is real men

[cosmic gazelle]

i feel like with the way amd’s naming scheme has been lately they’ll bin a 8c16t 10500 and a 10c20t 10600 or some shit

[hoary hatch]

I can't believe this was a fucking AMD quote of all companies

[brisk jolt]

amd is run by gold-digging grandmas

but memory bandwidth barely matters for games anyway, tuned 6000 should be fine on a 270K

[civic reef]

Hmmmmmmmm
.... Maybe?

[carmine pike]

Can the cmos battery prevent a pc from booting

[pure garnet]

depending on the board yeah

[carmine pike]

Well the thing is my moms pc (it’s a cheap Walmart pc) stopped working the other day and I think that may be the issue

[steel stream]

only one way to find out

[carmine pike]

Buy a new battery and try lol

[slim pebble]

Dual rank? My guess would be no but who knows?

[merry stirrup]

should be fine

DR does not reduce your possible daily speeds by 25% no way

[green marsh]

i only got 2/3 of that... got Z87, got 1080 Ti. But only i5-4690S 🙁

oh god, the description is making me feel bad already 😄 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8REaBEoYJA

[carmine pike]

Honestly hope it’s just that lol

https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-x970e-motherboards-may-reuse-prom21-chipset-but-with-full-cudimm-support reduce reuse recycle baby

[green marsh]

yes, it can short the system. Hell, i had a minisforum mini PC which refuses to even power up with either low battery (<=2.6V) or no battery. It needs a battery present and at relatively full capacity

[pure garnet]

a third prom 21 gen 😭

[slim pebble]

Oof, so AMD will have the same broken IO. 4 x PCIE 4.0 lanes shared by two prom21 chips? Ugh.

Meanwhile NVL is going to have gen 5 chipset lanes

[steel stream]

3rd times the charm

[shell void]

yes

[vestal granite]

cloudflare having skill issues?

[steel stream]

might be

[late atlas]

[slim pebble]

That’s if Tom’s Hardware can be trusted: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/chipsets/intels-new-platform-for-nova-lake-chips-leaked-up-to-48-pcie-lanes-and-all-new-chipset-900-series-motherboards-with-lga1954-socket-arrive-in-late-2026

[steel stream]

it's from jaykihn so it's probably going to happen

[slim pebble]

Right now, it’s six and a half dozen. AMD x870e boards have an extra 4 gen 5 CPU lanes for USB 4 or a second NVME. But the chipset is 4 gen 4 lanes.

ARL has 8 PCIE 4 chipset lanes.

NVL is our salvation

[frank cypress]

this baby will be able to fit so many ewaste gpus

[turbid locust]

Called it

[steel stream]

you love to see it

[slim pebble]

I suspected as much, without a socket change it’s hard to add a ton of new CPU lanes

Where would the pinouts go?

[steel stream]

yeah I'm not super surprised either

[turbid locust]

No I mean I called CUDIMM support being restricted to new boards lol

Nobody was expecting an actual new chipset

[slim pebble]

(I was hoping…)

[turbid locust]

I mean realistically no current chip can actually take advantage of cudimm atm anyway so it’s probably only going to be useful on Zen 6

[steel stream]

reuse the IOD reuse the IOD reuse the IOD 🙏

[turbid locust]

This basically only fucks over enthusiasts that bought into Zen 4/5 with current boards lol

[smoky orbit]

camm, as in camm2?

[steel stream]

there were Z890 boards with camm2 support but they never ended up happening

I doubt it'll come to X970-E either

[smoky orbit]

yeah, I remember at least one from msi

(that also never happened)

[merry stirrup]

CUDIMM does seemingly nothing so far so idek why it even matters

i’ve seen 0 good results compared to a normal udimm

all gains i’ve seen r from pcb differences

[merry stirrup]

at least for us enthusiasts with 1dpc boards

it just doesn’t make any sense

[steel stream]

I wonder if we are still not going high enough freq

and it'll be helpful for 2dpc

[merry stirrup]

well we’re not that’s why it isn’t helpful in 1dpc but if we’re hitting like 14GHz mem i don’t think cudimm is the solution

[slim pebble]

My expectation was that AMD would expand the chipset lanes to 4xpcie 5.0 instead of 4x4.0, which would double the chipset bandwidth and at least match ARL 8x4.0 chipset lanes.

Zen 4 and 5 have 28 lanes total, PCIE 5.0.

[steel stream]

yeah I don't see it either, afaik it's a "clock redriver" which wont help as we go higher anyways, it'll just be for a specific range of frequencies

[hoary hatch]

Z890 is a real platform

[frank zealot]

I didn't know Chrome's Task Manager could break 200%....

apparently it can:

[turbid locust]

DDR6 prototype lowk

[steel stream]

nope it's not real

[smoky orbit]

just like esata

minor nuclear reaction happening on my desk. nbd.

[steel stream]

just another wednesday at the office

[pure garnet]

@merry stirrup i got an interview at the pc repair thing

[smoky orbit]

for a job? how did it went?

[pure garnet]

it’ll be friday but yeah

local repair place

[smoky orbit]

ohhh oki, wishing you the best

[steel stream]

what's the role specifically?

[pure garnet]

fixing computers i guess? indeed didn’t have a title

i applied last night and they just called me

[steel stream]

damn they want you bad

[pure garnet]

oh “computer repair and network technician”

[frank cypress]

congrats!

hope it goes well

[steel stream]

you just gonna be a jack of all trades

[hoary hatch]

You will install antivirus on old people laptops

[frank cypress]

start installing bitcoin miners while ur at it

make an extra buck

[steel stream]

install LLMs on their PCs

[fervent chasm]

Bruh

[hoary hatch]

LLVM on them all

[merry stirrup]

what

[frank cypress]

god that's fucking bright

[fervent chasm]

That bright ass cable

[steel stream]

damn that cable is kinda crazy

[merry stirrup]

should see them irl bro

[fervent chasm]

Why would you do that to your build

[frank cypress]

https://tenor.com/view/flashbang-gif-22572243

[fervent chasm]

Floppa that looks dookie butt

[steel stream]

what's the 2% window peak brightness on that bad boy

[merry stirrup]

how many times i gotta say that these aren’t mine

[frank cypress]

im ngl ive never been a particular fan of strimers

[frank cypress]

i know, cause u got taste bro

[fervent chasm]

You build for people?

[hoary hatch]

I've always disliked strimers

[slim pebble]

I hope you get it!

[merry stirrup]

not really

[frank cypress]

same, ugly imo

[fervent chasm]

So who’s is it

[frank cypress]

well i don't really care for rgb in general so

[merry stirrup]

i simply test the computers being built

[frank cypress]

i guess that's why

[steel stream]

each computer is a personal reflection of you obviously

[fervent chasm]

You’re the QA guy?

[merry stirrup]

i can’t show you the testing setup but there’s 10 more machines

[merry stirrup]

yes

[fervent chasm]

That’s cool

[steel stream]

you're not that guy pal

[fervent chasm]

Say my name

[merry stirrup]

i see like 10 of those bitches a day

marks the 3rd 5090 of the day and i’ve been here 2 hours

[fervent chasm]

You’re supposed to nice to computers

They’ll remember this when they take over

[frank zealot]

my SSD where the built in LEDs overheat it is superior

[fervent chasm]

Ever think about just yoinking one

respectfully to snail this is at a very different scale

checked the listing again and they do a lot of business device stuff

so i’ll be the one bloating your company laptop

[hoary hatch]

Thankfully my company is large enough that we bloat our laptops in house

[steel stream]

can you please make my 11th gen intel laptop run as horribly as possible

[merry stirrup]

you ever seen a pallet of 5090s 5ft tall?

[brave panther]

i enjoy bloating them

[merry stirrup]

what about like, 2-4

[pure garnet]

oh they do custom desktops too

borrowing a 5090 from work

[steel stream]

bro whattttttt

dawg I would have taken a selfie with that shit

[merry stirrup]

yeah i can’t picture sadly i don’t think

[steel stream]

sneaky picture

[merry stirrup]

you ever seen 15 trays of ddr5 memory? just being the unboxed stuff

shits wack

[brave panther]

install trend micro, windows defender enterprise, and forticlient ems
this is a solid foundation to resolve your problem

[steel stream]

I'd being taken pictures with all that stuff

[merry stirrup]

you didn’t look that hard did you

allegedly we have or will have the cheapest 5080 sku

[steel stream]

can I trade in my 5070 Ti to you guys or nah

[brave panther]

what do you want for it to "fall off the truck"

[merry stirrup]

6$

[brave panther]

https://tenor.com/view/three-fitty-gif-1684909778489327763

[merry stirrup]

but yeah lots of 5090s and things

it’s honestly pretty cool but i see a lot of ugly computers

[vestal granite]

why does everyone want to meet gala so badly recently

[steel stream]

i think they're like good apples or smth

[merry stirrup]

like i’m looking to my left rn and i see a stack of mobos roughly as tall as me

[pure garnet]

i apply for whatever is here my city sucks

[merry stirrup]

like a column of 4 going up

[merry stirrup]

i meant for my peeps lol

where i work

[pure garnet]

no my place does them

[merry stirrup]

ohhh ohh ohh

that’s fire be a gilder

*builder

[vestal granite]

is a gilder someone who gilds stuff what does a gilder gild

[merry stirrup]

paid pc building is like ideal talk to nobody job

[vestal granite]

can i bring objects to a gilder and they will gild it for me

[merry stirrup]

you geek out for 6-8 hours and leave

[shell void]

i want a lightweight wireless mouse that has a charging dock like my 8bitdo ultimate

[merry stirrup]

it hurts your fingers tho stay moisturized with lotion

[hoary hatch]

You ever see a row of ASML high-NA EUV scanners?

[steel stream]

can't be touching 5090s with dry ass hands

[steel stream]

you lucky duck

[brave panther]

today a funniest ticket came in

[hoary hatch]

Actually Intel might only have 2 still
Also next gen low NA EUV I believe will physically be the same size so it might get difficult to see the difference at a glance

[livid flame]

It’s true. Gotta be proper lubed up before you pay that much money for a 5090

[ebon ibex]

i forgot the evga boxes for some cards used to be boring

[merry stirrup]

see you one up me here let me know if you need printers fized

[vestal granite]

you ever ride a boat on the largest underground lake in north america?

[hoary hatch]

Wtf is an underground lake
