[merry stirrup]

mpower works tho

[young void]

Peak

[frank cypress]

at the point where you manage to track one of these down, you might as well go full rack mount 😔

[pure garnet]

i wonder if the unify doohickey would work with it

[merry stirrup]

that’s what i was wondering i forgot to respond

i think it maybe would. what do the headers look like?

[smoky orbit]

Yeah, but these allow so many fans to be mounted that it would be so quiet

[pure garnet]

no clue i haven’t seen a review sample even yet

it’s the x870e unify x max

[turbid locust]

It’s 3:30p for me

[remote drift]

ye me too

[smoky orbit]

3:40*

[pure garnet]

you’re supposed to do it at 3am

[turbid locust]

If I wasn’t meant to drink and mow the mower wouldn’t have self propulsion

[merry stirrup]

looks different

[remote drift]

we both EST but we aint in the period where the lawn is fully grown

unless u live at equator

[merry stirrup]

d oesnt have the 3 separate headers it seems

[turbid locust]

I’ve been mowing for a month maybe your grass sucks

[pure garnet]

mac you need a riding mower to operate under the influence

[remote drift]

doesnt suck, but we do have 8 month winter

crazy claims buddy

[smoky orbit]

It’s mowing time in qc already

[pure garnet]

canada is where they filmed the hoth scenes in star wars

[merry stirrup]

also i am NOT paying 56$ for a cable mod cable wtf

[smoky orbit]

Holly shit

[remote drift]

who told u this?

[smoky orbit]

I live in qc, and work in my grandparent’s orchard

[pure garnet]

does the prime minister declare mowing time or something

just mow it when it’s long

[smoky orbit]

Mayb, I don’t really listen to them

[smoky orbit]

Yep, that’s what normal people do

[frank cypress]

time to make your own

[merry stirrup]

i think ill just leave the red one its ok

im gonna tape over the bios light on my board real quick though

[frank cypress]

wait is your side panel TG or mesh?

[remote drift]

May do be time for a mowin fr

[merry stirrup]

glass because i am the goat

[frank cypress]

oh fair

[merry stirrup]

(airflow is still great, 3x 140 intake is awesome)

[frank cypress]

i was asking cause i got mesh so i never have to look inside :^)

[merry stirrup]

i like my puter

[pure garnet]

the obnoxious red led of doom

[frank cypress]

not saying it like i don't like mine or sommething... but i don't clean mine too often

[merry stirrup]

in the future i will physically disable it

whatever board i mod to have a cmos reset header i'll take off the led's

[turbid locust]

Perfectly reasonable

I don’t know a single person in my area that hasn’t been mowing since the beginning of April lol

ESPECIALLY after Derby weekend man that’s like the main marker of “hey you need to start taking care of the yard again”

[merry stirrup]

better i guess

[turbid locust]

I love Asus OC boards that have dedicated start, reset, and cmos clear buttons right on the board

No shorting pins

[merry stirrup]

mine do too

[turbid locust]

Clean mr flops. Excellent GPU decision.

[spiral quarry]

lol a nice to have thing for me even though I barely use it

[pure garnet]

i get test points on the apex too

[turbid locust]

I wish I could make my build a little cleaner but not a whole lotta room in the A3

Is there an ATX case that wouldn’t look stupid with a 240mm AIO installed

[merry stirrup]

isnt it such a lovely computer

[turbid locust]

see like this is sex

[merry stirrup]

yeah i have that

[spiral quarry]

my msi board came with plastic feet you can use for a makeshift test bench setup

[sharp heart]

those red cables on the gpu are pissing me off

[merry stirrup]

im not paying 60$ for a black and gold one

[turbid locust]

Safe boot actually working on Asus boards>>>>>>

I think gigabyte is the only main vendor I haven’t owned a board from in the most recent platforms

Considering buying one of their 4 dimmers for daily

B850M Aorus Ice is rated for 8200MTs

[pure garnet]

gigabyte is my tentative #2 board option rn

[turbid locust]

Although I think it would be quite funny to buy a Hero and try some 4 SR stick OC

[pure garnet]

even though they update bioses slow af

[merry stirrup]

their bios is just terrible

[turbid locust]

I really liked my AM4 gigabyte board

[merry stirrup]

pg dn doesnt actually do what you expect

why would you do this to me gigabyte

should i keep the cable running over the back of the gpu or no

[pure garnet]

i plan to just stick with asus for now though

[merry stirrup]

im going to buy a solid black cable

[merry stirrup]

i personally think it looks great

[pure garnet]

i don’t have the xl so mine just runs into the giant hole at the bottom of the case

[turbid locust]

I do like Asus boards but they’re just blatantly more expensive than decent counterparts

[merry stirrup]

koykoo

what the FUCK is this omputer DAWG

[pure garnet]

an old photo

[merry stirrup]

IM TERRIFIED

[turbid locust]

Like my Gene is just worse for mem OC vs my Mpower and it’ll still sell for more second hand than my Mpower was new

[pure garnet]

i think i have to ditch the x550-t2 in apex unless i put it above my gpu

and that fucked up banana card isn’t gonna be up top

[pure garnet]

i keep seeing one on ebay for like $600

[turbid locust]

lol

[merry stirrup]

i think i do keep it like this but a black cable

shame i cant find gold for cheaper, would look great with the north

[turbid locust]

Floppa buy my gene I give good price

[merry stirrup]

im buyiing b850 mpower uncle mac

[turbid locust]

bruh

[merry stirrup]

[pure garnet]

if you mean the mismatched top fans a 140 on the other side hits and dents my eps cables

[merry stirrup]

make it cleanerer

[pure garnet]

i’ll blow it out when the apex shows out

[turbid locust]

Sidenote I think I’m able to do 8300 on the 9850X3D but I kinda don’t wanna run it cause 8300 looks ugly

[merry stirrup]

a cable will bne here in 2 days

[pure garnet]

this was my magnum opus build

[merry stirrup]

man its awful

[pure garnet]

well i can’t cable manage a rad that is held in by gravity

[merry stirrup]

😭 i guess

should i just leave all my rgb off besides the board buttons or wrhat

[smoky orbit]

Screw it in

[pure garnet]

i also pop it out to shove in front of the ac for benches

[pure garnet]

i can’t, that case doesn’t support a 360

[smoky orbit]

Ohhhhhhh okiii

[pure garnet]

i just yanked out a bunch of the case and plopped it in there

8000cl34 👍

[pure garnet]

i think i’m gonna keep that board for now

[merry stirrup]

ohp okie

[sharp heart]

[pure garnet]

rather have the side system also be am5 because i don’t enjoy intel tuning

and i want to actually try eclk again beyond blind monkey luck

[merry stirrup]

yes yes

[merry stirrup]

i turned the ram on it looks cool

im not recording my computer leds for you but its like a racing strip of yellow

[pure garnet]

i just ran mine at a static color in the bios

[merry stirrup]

i use the asrock software its not bad

their software is so shit i know it doesnt have spyware

you get ads for rx 6000 series in it

[turbid locust]

Chat do I just swap the HDV back in for daily and run 1:1 lmao

Well, maybe my cpu won’t explode?

[sharp heart]

yes

[frank cypress]

hmmm edifier mr4 is on sale on amazon, been considering getting some new speakers 👀

[turbid locust]

My MR3’s are fantastic

[pure garnet]

you could but that gigabyte board is also like peanuts and a lot nicer

[frank cypress]

no idea about anything about audio but these seem to be well recieved online

[frank cypress]

that's good to hear

[indigo walrus]

Nah, if you want maximum performance you need to set all your RGB to red.

[pure garnet]

the gene is such a cool board sucks that it’s in term hell for 2:1 already

[frank cypress]

if i buy these i could shuffle the presonus eris 3.5 to my other pc

[turbid locust]

It’ll boot and run 8200 on auto terms pretty much

[merry stirrup]

my pc was red for like 5 years straight no lie

[turbid locust]

anything beyond that is not guaranteed

[merry stirrup]

its only gold now because the OCF is gold and red looks terrible w/gold

[pure garnet]

does it have an 8400 profile

[turbid locust]

What I mean by the Mpower being “better” is that it boots 8400 without having to touch terminations

[turbid locust]

No just an extremely aggressive 8000 profile LMAO

but deadass if you set 8200 with appropriate voltages and primary timings it’ll fkin boot and go ngl

You might have to fiddle with cpu pull up and down but that’s it

Asus is kind of locked in on terminations for various kits, especially gskill

Your gskill 8000 kit would probably boot mad easy

[green marsh]

i don't get it, it is same specs that part. If you think the 10-15% performance gain is worth the price increase, then sure, get the 5080.

[pure garnet]

i’m kinda hoping crosshair tweak works for that kit

it says just gskill 6000cl26 but i’m gonna pretend that also means 8000cl38

[turbid locust]

Just start with group B 60ohm and go from there

[pure garnet]

well i’m gonna start with just the 8400 profile before i try terms

[turbid locust]

You’re going to be limited by cpu before board or kit ngl

[pure garnet]

maybe it’ll apex and lock in and just work

[merry stirrup]

i settled on a nice orangey-gold color on the io and ram

[turbid locust]

I did some testing with Buildzoids advice and i unfortunately stopped posting with the settings he said might work for 8400

But 8300 almost surely works on Mpower with my chip

I had it go like 30 mins Karhu no problem

[pure garnet]

i was gonna try on the mpower ahead of time but i don’t feel like wasting duronaut again this week

i just took my cpu out just to get the 7800x3d sp score

[low sorrel]

@cosmic gazelle @spiral quarry did you see that Microsoft accidentally uploaded the unencrypted files of FH6

And it's already pirated

[turbid locust]

I’m considering retrying for 8400 with my H24M kit but idk how it would handle terms

[pure garnet]

i know at minimum my cpu boots 8400 with conservative voltages so 8000 is basically guaranteed daily stable

[turbid locust]

I’m flying blind as far as that Vcolor kit goes

with terms

[turbid locust]

8000 is entirely cpu dependent atp

If you have a board moderately worth a fuck 8000 will work

[pure garnet]

well i got 20 minutes into karhu before the mlg gave up the ghost i think

[merry stirrup]

that board does 8k for sure so idk

unless the MLG is like terribly behind the b850 tomahawk/vc in training

which is possible cause its a one off board basically but

[pure garnet]

did you touch terms because i didn’t

[merry stirrup]

my sample did up to 8200 no terms

then 8400 w/ cpu pu pd

[pure garnet]

i booted 8400 and it was fine in windows but i don’t remember how fast it died in karhu

[merry stirrup]

didnt test as long but 8K ran 10 hrs cause i left work with it on one day

8400 did 30 minutes but it didnt fail i just had to stop it

tomahawk is qvled for 8400 and the nia is probably the same as the vc at 8200

[merry stirrup]

the apex WILL help a weaker imc, but its possible that you just need to do terms for your chip to comply because it doesnt like typical ryzen training stuff or somethinj

[low sorrel]

When the pirates can play the game before the people who bought it:

[brave panther]

"We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem," he said. "If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate's service is more valuable."

[pure garnet]

found them

[pure garnet]

it’s quite possible 2/3/1 would’ve been stable for 8000 but i’ve always been told that if you can’t run the right nitro you shouldn’t run the speed

[merry stirrup]

try 43 pu ig 34 is low but pd is f ine

[pure garnet]

bro that board has no cmos and was packed up eons ago

[merry stirrup]

well on whatever next board

[pure garnet]

if the apex needs terms for 8000 i’m throwing the cpu in the bin

the x670e-e just won’t do 8000 i’ll save my hair

[remote drift]

this is 5080 vs 5070?

[merry stirrup]

computer is being put to work

[low sorrel]

I know what I'm doing tonight

[remote drift]

oh wow ! no way ur right

then 5070 ti or 5070 should do the trick

i believe 5070 is only 1k$

[merry stirrup]

i think im getting the xbox on windows update

im actually kinda hyped for that i need to show it ot my mom

[pure garnet]

downgrading from the the 4080 to the 5070 is one of the plays of all time

[green marsh]

5070 has only 12GB VRAM. But 5070 Ti is very close to 5080 at lower price (10-15% performance gain for 5080 over 5070 Ti, same VRAM). I wouldn't get 5070, but 5070Ti vs 5080 is lot of money saved for barely any performance loss (certainly less performance is lost than the price difference would make you think)

[low sorrel]

Get 5090

[green marsh]

ah yes, going from 1.1k euro to 3.5k euro totally makes sense

(5070 Ti -> 5090)

[pure garnet]

i mean if you’re buying 5 oleds with it why not

[low sorrel]

^

[green marsh]

maybe he is going signage and then even GT710 would be enough, if it had the required ports /s

[civic reef]

Using a laptop as a daily driver feels so surreal

[remote drift]

kk

i would have to test BF6 5070ti vs 5080

cause that the only game i play since 5 weeks ago 😉

main monitor 2k 240 hz

all other 5 monitors 4k 165 hz

LTT did a yt video on performance while having 4 monitors

if u dont run no program no nothing on the other ones he said ur main one will feel like its the only monitor u got.

[hoary hatch]

Man if 5080 launched at 24gb it would have been such a better compelling product, even if an extra $50-100 MSRP

[green marsh]

NV is greedy, you're welcome

they are trying to get away with the least expenses for the most expensive product

[hoary hatch]

I do wonder if 3GB G7 chips were in pretty short supply when 5080 specs were being finalized

[green marsh]

that is why 5070 Ti is a mistake

it's too good a deal, even at current inflated price. Probably going to take anotehr 3 generations of GPUs for them to make such mistake again

last such mistake was 1080 Ti, as someone said it here before

[remote drift]

ye i had 2 1080 ti's

[hazy zealot]

Why not just go 9070xt guys

[remote drift]

gave 1 my brother and the other one is in an i7 7800k rig

[green marsh]

i have two 1080 Ti's

[hazy zealot]

Same performance

Less cost

[cosmic gazelle]

no way lmao

[hoary hatch]

I'm not sure if I would call the 5070ti a particularly compelling deal

IMO the 5070ti only appears such a good value because the 5080 value is trash

[devout ridge]

less performance*

[green marsh]

in my case it was LLMs

[hazy zealot]

More vram

[remote drift]

True

[devout ridge]

okay?

[hazy zealot]

Barely in benchmarks

[devout ridge]

it doesn't have the performance to actually make much use of the VRAM it has

[hazy zealot]

Ok that's a fair reason

[devout ridge]

the 9070xt also falls quite short in RT performance

[hoary hatch]

And it took AMD a while to get 9070xt pricing to their proposed MSRP
(I'm talking Q3-Q4 last year, no idea what current pricing is tbh)

[cosmic gazelle]

@merry stirrup i had chatgpt do the deep research thing and basically this board has no way to change nb besides changing bclk but bulldozer allows for extremely aggressive bclk oc because it only controls base clock, memory speed, cpu nb, and ht and i was already going to tune those anyways

essentially a bclk of 250-270 is theoretically possible so that is what I will be trying later tonight

[hazy zealot]

Yea but rn 300 bucks less

[hazy zealot]

High but lower than the 5070tu

Ti

[cosmic gazelle]

@pure garnet lo and behold the 250 watt blower kepler card hits like 85c and needs a repaste

[pure garnet]

i repasted my 980ti and the temps didn’t change

[devout ridge]

then go buy the 9070xt

[hazy zealot]

I'm honestly curious in which cases the 5070ti has an edge

Because in every benchmark I've seen it's barely a noticeable difference

[pure garnet]

rt, dlss

[devout ridge]

RT

[hoary hatch]

Resale value

[hazy zealot]

How significant though

[cosmic gazelle]

what temps were you hitting? also titan is a few years older so possibly a difference

[pure garnet]

without manual fan control it just sits at 85c

[hazy zealot]

I'm tryna buy a pc not invest in the stock market 🙏

[pure garnet]

i wouldn’t buy a modern card without dlss

fsr4 support is limited

[hazy zealot]

This might be me being a purist but I've never been much enticed towards dlss

[pure garnet]

well monitors above 1080p exist

[hazy zealot]

I mostly play competitive titles and the concept of an ai making up where m'y enemy is seems hellish

[hazy zealot]

9070xt does 1440p

[cosmic gazelle]

i haven’t super closely monitored it but at 80% i think it was still sitting pretty high, i was kinda just malding at the motherboard and less focused on the gpu lmao

[hazy zealot]

4k I can understand wanting better, but how is the 5070ti any better

[pure garnet]

because i can use dlss

[hoary hatch]

Nvidia software is generally more widely supported

[hazy zealot]

On windows sure

[cosmic gazelle]

not to be that guy but aren’t 5070 tis like 150% of the price of 9070 xt’s

[devout ridge]

in 4k, 17%

[pure garnet]

depends on the day and the deal

[hazy zealot]

But for most linux distros its hell to have Nvidia still

[hazy zealot]

Yes they are

[gentle urchin]

why would anyone use Linux

[hoary hatch]

As a non AI user non RT gamer, I was cross shopping a 5070ti I could pick up immediately for $699 and a 9070xt I could wait 2 weeks for for $630, well, 5070ti felt like the obvious choice

[pure garnet]

linux support? we digging for reasons here 😭

[hazy zealot]

Rn on Amazon EU there's at least 300 bucks of difference

[hazy zealot]

Sorry I don't want Gemini shoved up my bum

[cosmic gazelle]

i mean linux support is kind of a reach given that nvidia support has been pretty much fine for years

also what? gemini? lmao

just use iot w11 it’s fine

[hazy zealot]

Idk man windows 11 defaulting to eating multiple gigs of ram just idling don't seem great to me

[smoky orbit]

Cause we want to?

[hoary hatch]

What is ram for if not to be utilized

[cosmic gazelle]

w11 iot uses approx 600mb more ram than ubuntu 24.04 lts on gnome

[hoary hatch]

Unused ram is wasted ram

[hazy zealot]

Maybe other apps I'm using

[civic reef]

Mint Cinnamon <3

[hazy zealot]

ESPECIALLY rn saving ram is a good idea

[cosmic gazelle]

phantom did you ever finish installing drivers lol

[civic reef]

Yes, somehow

[pure garnet]

then windows would just free ram from the cache it creates?

[cosmic gazelle]

nice

[smoky orbit]

Nah, I use it as swap (im a mega super duper cool lady that does have any swap space on her nyarch install (my daily driver)

[pure garnet]

you should be using swap on zram

[cosmic gazelle]

i feel like we kinda skipped past this

not even a good argument anymore

[smoky orbit]

Yes but I like doing dumb stuff so I won’t

[pure garnet]

the conversation lost any plot when linux support was brought up

[cosmic gazelle]

lmao

[pure garnet]

you should have swap enabled because otherwise the system can just lock up without but fair

[hazy zealot]

Mmm miam oh yea keep feeding me microslop I'm so hungry for it

[cosmic gazelle]

but like, seriously, ubuntu ram management on the stock environment isn’t even good anymore

[civic reef]

Adrenalin Edition never download because my iGPU is no longer supported but I'll leave downloading an older ver for later

[hazy zealot]

You don't understand guys I NEED ai in notes

[civic reef]

For now I want to enjoy using a laptop

[cosmic gazelle]

did you download the universal installer like i sent you

[civic reef]

Quite literally my first time using it other than downloading stuff was work and that was yesterday

[smoky orbit]

Im too cool for swap (I know and understand the risks, I just like doing stupid stuff)

[pure garnet]

wait till they learn that linux also caches stuff in ram

[cosmic gazelle]

because i installed it just fine on an older igpu and it works fine so idk why it’s stopping you

[steel stream]

https://videocardz.com/newz/noctua-teases-black-nf-a12x25-g2-fan-ahead-of-computex-2026

[civic reef]

Error 182 @cosmic gazelle

Tried full and driver only

I ended up downloading drivers with Lenovo Vantage

[smoky orbit]

I hope it does, where else do you wanna cache it?

[pure garnet]

https://tenor.com/view/rage-gif-18338667365126853250

[smoky orbit]

Me? No im agreeing with you

[pure garnet]

no the one who was acting like a child

[smoky orbit]

(At least it worked)

[smoky orbit]

Ohhhh okiiiiii

[pure garnet]

the second “microslop” is brought up you can assume 90% of the time an intelligent discussion is impossible

[hazy zealot]

Listen brethren if I'm a child for saying open source OS shouldn't be dismissed then fine

[pure garnet]

no you’re a child for acting like one

[hazy zealot]

Sorry what do you call the 3 separate default installs of Google AI on windows 11

[pure garnet]

the 2% market share desktop operating system is not a factor for 99% of gpu buyers (which also still requires ignoring how easy to nvidia driver is to configure now)

[smoky orbit]

We don’t, here we use Linux and windows Iot ltsc (in vast majority)

[pure garnet]

windows
google ai

[hazy zealot]

Sorry yea I meant Microsoft AI

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress you didn't sell the computer yet right

[cosmic gazelle]

this is probably fine honestly, lenovo is generally a pain in the ass with oem locking

[hazy zealot]

Oh ptn le rêve

[civic reef]

I "get" OEM locking socketed CPUs but OEM locking the software for their laptops 😭?

[civic reef]

Yeah

I am way too tired for more downloads

[smoky orbit]

Based

[civic reef]

Weekend passed and I haven't done any of my homework or done anything I wanted to thanks to these downloads
Atleast on Monday I get to use it properly for a full day

[vivid kiln]

To be fair, as far as OEM software goes, Vantage is leagues better than all the others

[cosmic gazelle]

i had to do a complex workaround to install the newest igpu drivers on a 4790k in a dell oem motherboard

sometimes they just do that

[vivid kiln]

Dell Upgrade is particularly annoying, as it often tries to sneak McAfee onto your system, and the HP software is just beyond useless

[cosmic gazelle]

i haven’t had any issues with my amd hp laptop installing drivers and stuff myself

the only thing that needs hp’s drivers is the wifi chipset

everything else just takes the normal stuff

[vivid kiln]

It's more for enterprise support. Windows Update takes care of most things, but all the other specialty crap breaks

I also haven't used an Elite book which is the one people are all cultish about. Maybe those are better, who knows

[civic reef]

Oh god

[civic reef]

Just.. Why?!
What do they get out of this 😭

I don't think anyone will be so frustrated by a company making drivers hard to get that they'll buy something new

[brave panther]

dell bloatware encuragmenet

[civic reef]

Makes sense

[topaz veldt]

yawno

[pure garnet]

in my experience the oem igpu drivers were actually faster for me

[civic reef]

Atleast the updates are smooth & I get a thermal monitoring option

[pure garnet]

like 10-12fps difference

could just be lenovo locking a power state behind their driver for power management but

it was measurably faster

[cosmic gazelle]

i’ve never done testing on either because haswell era graphics artifact really bad in most games these days

[pure garnet]

this was alder so xe

[cosmic gazelle]

oh yeah idk

[civic reef]

Wdym artifact
Isn't that just the result of a dying graphics processor??

[cosmic gazelle]

the newest haswell drivers are noticeably more stable and dell tries to prevent you from installing them

[cosmic gazelle]

just a result of some kind of instability happening

can be from many different things

[pure garnet]

haswell has a broken dx12 implementation

[merry stirrup]

slay

[cosmic gazelle]

pretty sure it does it even on dx11 fortnite

[civic reef]

Oh
Okay that makes sense ig

[pure garnet]

apex got tracking so should be shipped monday

[cosmic gazelle]

kyoko have you ordered from alibaba before

usually aliexpress updates me about customs and such but alibaba just says my cpu cooler got on a plane 6 days ago and nothing else

[pure garnet]

no

[cosmic gazelle]

bummer

someone in hwswap wants over $1k for an lg gram with a 1260p and 2050

that seems like a horrible price

not that this is as nice an lg gram but cmon man

[hazy zealot]

Sorry, you're right I was being combattive

[cosmic gazelle]

tech chat user takes accountability

you never know what you’ll see in here for real

@turbid locust do you do bodybuilding or nah

[frank cypress]

nope

you gonna buy it?]

i bought the edifier mr4s, hopefully i like them when they arrive 🥳

[turbid locust]

Nah

[frank cypress]

btw if you're gonna buy it jerry, i do recommend you drive it back home, cause I cba draining it

ill have to dig up the other watercooling stuff

[pallid marsh]

Isn't that the slowest raytracing gpu Nvidia makes

[hoary hatch]

What's the full specs?

Does he have a 4tb SSD in it or something

[smoky orbit]

I would only take it if I was paid 1k

[cosmic gazelle]

not technically but effectively yes

the ram is nice but not a thousand dollars nice

[smoky orbit]

They made an even worst one (also a laptop one)

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah that one i saw that video

don’t remember what they called it

[smoky orbit]

Yep saw that video too

[smoky orbit]

It was something really weird, like rtx 450 or something like that

@cosmic gazelle found the vid https://youtu.be/fp1XeQWMAMA?si=PHBAJuIwXHy2Tr2B

rtx 570

[pallid marsh]

Rx 570 knock off smh Nvidia

[frank cypress]

oh fuck that's right i forgot, i have a spare kraken g12 and an aio lying around

@low sorrel you want that too?

not sure if it has everything for it so i'll just toss it in if you want it lol

[low sorrel]

ye

[frank cypress]

sure loll

[low sorrel]

what time can you do

[frank cypress]

today?

[low sorrel]

like when

[frank cypress]

today doesn't really work for me cause i have mother's day celebration

[pure garnet]

yooo ennuis a mom

[frank cypress]

ohhhhh preferably during my break cause i kinda cba taking apart the pc and retrieving my drive and shit

[frank cypress]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-cat-gif-26460616

[low sorrel]

when the fuck is your break

[frank cypress]

around may 25th or so

lemme check to make sure, though if you need a pc before then i can make it work

i mean tbh it's not a lot of work

just gotta take out the ssd and the ram soooo

[low sorrel]

I mean I want it as soon as possible ngl

can do any week day post like 5pm

or weekends

[frank cypress]

oh huh that is indeed correct

[frank cypress]

get your parents to drive you cause u aint gonna lug that shit back by foot

[low sorrel]

yeah

me and my brother are gonna come

[frank cypress]

kk ill take the storage and ram out tomorrow, so you can do any day then i guess

wait no i got something tomorrow

tuesday

i don't remember where i put some of the spare watercooling stuff, so you're probably gonna have to come back for that

like the fittings and stuff

[low sorrel]

k

6pm?

[frank cypress]

tuesday? sure

[low sorrel]

you have the boxes for shit

I don't care that much

[frank cypress]

for the psu and the rads

[low sorrel]

but boxes are cool

[frank cypress]

nothing else, i don't think cause the rest are off of FBM

oh and the waterblock

ill be nice and toss you all of my spare watercooling stuff i purchased :)

[low sorrel]

:D

[smoky orbit]

happy mother's day @frank cypress

[frank cypress]

https://tenor.com/view/spin-kermit-the-frog-funny-feels-like-pool-gif-15324912

[smoky orbit]

hehehehehehehhehe :3

[frank cypress]

oh LMAO i just found another two am4 waterblocks i guess you're getting with it

[low sorrel]

What am I supposed to do with them

[frank cypress]

uh idk

it's part of the spare watercooling stuff

[low sorrel]

Good paperweight ig

It's just distilled water right

[frank cypress]

uhhh i just used that and the other thing

biocide? + inhibitor

[low sorrel]

Yeah

[frank cypress]

the EK stuff

yeah

[smoky orbit]

send them to me instead :3

[low sorrel]

Yeah was just asking because if you did the weird color things

I would probably drain it

Because I cannot be arsed to maintain that

[pallid marsh]

Wait is Jerry finally getting your 4070!?

[frank cypress]

you probably should

wait are you not gonna use the custom loop stuff?

[low sorrel]

No

I mean yes

[frank cypress]

if not ill probably take it apart first and sell that then

[low sorrel]

I was just gonna change it to distilled if it wasn't already

[frank cypress]

ur not gonna a discount even if you don't take it cause i feel like ur already getting a good deal

[smoky orbit]

jerry getting a gpu upgrade before gta 6

[frank cypress]

ah yes dw i couldn't be bothered to use something other than distilled

[low sorrel]

Yeah I know

[frank cypress]

ill give you the rest of the distilled water but

[pallid marsh]

@low sorrel will I not be able to bully you over your weak 3060 now?!

[frank cypress]

you need to buy more of the biocide and inhibitor

cause i don't have any left

[low sorrel]

You know who's problem that sounds like

Later jerry

[frank cypress]

not mine :)

LMAOOOO but yeah, that's why im not draining it

ill take the gpu out as well before you recieve it

[pure garnet]

it took ennui buying it off me to buy it

[frank cypress]

so you can transport it seperately from the pc

[frank cypress]

hes getting the whole ass pc aside from ram and storage for 1k cad 😔

good ass deal if you ask me

[pure garnet]

yeah

isnt it a godlike too

[frank cypress]

5950x/x570 godlike/4070 dual and a 1600w titanium psu

[low sorrel]

Arguably I'm getting a better deal here

[frank cypress]

yep

he gets the friend discount cause hes saving me trouble from parting and dealing with people on FBM

[pure garnet]

real

[frank cypress]

plus it's going to a good cause 😂

[pure garnet]

charge jerry the import fee ups charged you

[frank cypress]

my charitable donation for the year

[low sorrel]

I am Infact going to instantly flip the 1600w psu there is no universe where I'm using the 1600w psu evef

[frank cypress]

yknow fair

i just couldn't be arsed to do the same myself

[pure garnet]

i need my apex to ship on a sunday somehow

[frank cypress]

so if you want to make that money gurl go for it

[low sorrel]

Don't you need a different plug for it too

[frank cypress]

get that bag

[pallid marsh]

I'm happy my PC is still going to be better than Jerry's

[frank cypress]

no

the cable is fucking fat though

[low sorrel]

Now all I need is gulity to buy a 6090 and then I buy his 4090

[frank cypress]

🫡 this will be the peak of my madness

we never made it past 4 but we did beat guilty's 4090 in cb2024 so i will take that

[low sorrel]

Where'd you buy your biocide

[frank cypress]

uh i got it from a dude when i bought his DCC pump off of fbm

xd

you could probably find it on amazon though

HOLY SMOKES EXPENSIVE

[pallid marsh]

When will you upgrade to a 16gb gpu that won't run out of vram at 4k like your upcoming 4070

[smoky orbit]

I'm gonna cry

[frank cypress]

im sure someone has some recommendation on what you should buy and where though

[low sorrel]

you know techincally couldn't i just?

[low sorrel]

bruh the first 3 ones i see on reddit are only avaliable stateside

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel do you know where?

[edgy laurel]

gotta be new hope

[topaz veldt]

that riverside on the left is where I proposed to my wife

[edgy laurel]

I went to a wedding at riverside ballroom

[topaz veldt]

Nice - we did dinner on the PA side

[low sorrel]

why is it cheaper

to buy coolent then fucking biocide and distilled water

[topaz veldt]

It was def not cheap

oh lol

[low sorrel]

i might have to run coolent lol

[topaz veldt]

in what

[low sorrel]

im buying ennuis pc

[topaz veldt]

bro just buy premix

I have no fucked with mixing distilled and biocides/etc. for like 20 years

there is no benefit

[low sorrel]

what i buy

[topaz veldt]

• Aquacomputer DP Ultra
• Koolance 702/705
• Corsair XL5
• Mayhems X1

I like EK Clear as well

[low sorrel]

what the diff between xl5 and xl8

[topaz veldt]

3

XL5 is mostly discontinued I believe

[low sorrel]

i see

my option are corsair xl8 or pay 2-3x as much

hmmmm

[topaz veldt]

Do XL8 bro

don't overthink

[low sorrel]

that was sarcastic

[carmine pike]

Sucks that SLI/whatever is basically dead now

[topaz veldt]

It doesn't really suck that its dead

[wraith steeple]

Yeah is EOL. It was rebadged Mayhems X1

IDEK What OEM XL8 is

[carmine pike]

It could have been really good tbh

Just nobody wanted to support it

[topaz veldt]

No it had fundamental flaws, trust me

[low sorrel]

you know

hypotheeically

couldn't i just use antifreeze

[carmine pike]

I’m sure they could have fixed those flaws

[topaz veldt]

No, they couldn't - it was physics at play

200 fps that felt like 75

[pure garnet]

making data go across a pcie bus mid frame is always going to have latency

[low sorrel]

ok but it was cool

[wraith steeple]

Which country are you based in? @carmine pike

[topaz veldt]

There are a lot of things that are cool though

[carmine pike]

May I ask why?

[low sorrel]

rule of cool bro

[carmine pike]

Facts

[devout ridge]

Everytime i print off a plot, i find at least 2 things that i forgot to do

[wraith steeple]

Are you in the market for coolants?

[topaz veldt]

After like.... 5 -6 weeks.... I have $20k of plastic furniture showing up tomorrow

@edgy laurel so hear me out

[wraith steeple]

If US, I can recommend Mayhems X1 as a good alternative. I used that for years with good results

[low sorrel]

im the guy asking about coolents lol

[wraith steeple]

oh

[topaz veldt]

And he's in Canada

@low sorrel are you in the part of Canada that might have freedom soon

[low sorrel]

i mean i can easily import it from the states

i also don't wanna

[wraith steeple]

My condolences.... WCing market in Canada is FUCKED even with DazMode

[smoky orbit]

my condoleances if he's in alberta

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress I can't believe your in alberta

[wraith steeple]

And Daz 9 times out of 10 is the go-to for this niche

[low sorrel]

this any good?

[wraith steeple]

This should be fine

And Koolance..... It is for sure expensive but holy shit

[devout ridge]

send jerry to the WC Disc so we can spam the FAQ Cmds

[wraith steeple]

[smoky orbit]

@low sorrel when are you upgrading your gpu?

[wraith steeple]

aight Jerry this emoticon should get you to WCE

[low sorrel]

tuesday

[frank cypress]

looooool

[topaz veldt]

Ew liberty

[wraith steeple]

We'll get you all sorted

[smoky orbit]

really? nicey

[smoky orbit]

(alberta isn't more "free" and won't be more "free" if they leave, they can do what ever they want, idgas but it would be dumb to leave (also applicable to qc (and I'm from qc)))

[pure garnet]

watercoolers are an interesting folk

[low sorrel]

i was gonna say pretty rich coming from a quebecois

[smoky orbit]

[smoky orbit]

*quebecoise, but yeah was an independist before and realized that it's not really a viable option

[devout ridge]

Don't shame them for their peculiarities

[wraith steeple]

You're one of us too, Iroh

[devout ridge]

Nuh uh, i've only ever used an AIO

I spend too much money on server rack BS to afford a custom loop

[smoky orbit]

[low sorrel]

and i get some free dried up thermal paste

[smoky orbit]

mhhmmmm yummy

[devout ridge]

@wraith steeple the server rack BS i refer to

[wraith steeple]

Wyn or Thantos should chime in any minute now

[smoky orbit]

wyn, thantos?

ohhhh okiiii

[low sorrel]

Yo yo yo

Why is shipping 30 bucks

[smoky orbit]

(I can hear that vid x3)

[devout ridge]

Comparing the rack now to how it originally started is so weird

[low sorrel]

On my 15 dollar coolant

[smoky orbit]

cause you live in alberta, dw it's worse in qc

[wraith steeple]

They're Canada based and know the CA market more than me as I only know of Daz (they're basically the PPCS of Canada)

[low sorrel]

What

I dont live in alberta

[devout ridge]

i’m not canadian

[teal orbit]

Damn I need something like that

[smoky orbit]

I thought you did x3

[low sorrel]

I live in druggie land

Actually that describes basically any city these days

[wraith steeple]

I know, I am referring to Wyn and Thantos

[devout ridge]

Highly recommend, especially since i live in the rural US where short outages happen a lot

[smoky orbit]

ohhh bc?

[low sorrel]

Yes

[devout ridge]

Is BC the canadian equivalent of Florida?

[smoky orbit]

nicey, shipping is quite expensive these days ngl,

[teal orbit]

What model is that ups

[smoky orbit]

not really, i'd say either alberta or qc is

[low sorrel]

In what way

[low sorrel]

QC is Alberta is too cold

[smoky orbit]

I wish I had this yougness again (I'm only 18 and feel like a fucking 86 year old)

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress how much water is in your loop

[low sorrel]

tryna figure out how much coolent do i need

[smoky orbit]

until there's no more air

[low sorrel]

thanks

[young void]

Tested adding some of the models all seems good so far

Still a ton to make and add but a fun start

[teal orbit]

make the loop pressurized

[smoky orbit]

I know how stupid and mean it might sound but it's actually what most people do

[low sorrel]

I mean how much water is roughly in there

[smoky orbit]

ohh oki

[frank cypress]

i can't remember but it's not that much

the res i have is the EKWB g something? g11 ? for the o11

[low sorrel]

man why do i feel like im going to send up spending an obscene amount of money on watercooling over the years because of this

[frank cypress]

i usually use like half my 1l or so squirty bottle

[low sorrel]

Damn the 5L option is the better deal

[frank cypress]

oh btw, you are gonna wannna repaste it

cause i used kryonaut iirc

so it's probably disintigrated alr

[low sorrel]

that reminds me

where the fuck is my thermal paste

[young void]

Still not sure if i can use cheif as alittle easter egg charachter but ill ask eventually lol

Have him grant a heart or smth

[low sorrel]

why do i need -50c protection in a pc

[wraith steeple]

That's for those doing sub-ambient cooling

There's no difference between X1 and XT1 for daily use

[low sorrel]

Yeah looks like I'm going to buy 5x 1L mod my mods fluid

It's cheaper then buying 5l of XT1

[brisk jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/leon-kennedy-eyeballs-looking-binoculars-resident-evil-gif-5218614413222692600

[wraith steeple]

Good choice. ModWater is basically Rebadged Mayhems XT1 anyway

So you're in good hands on that front

[low sorrel]

Yeah XT1 was cheaper from ppcs but to bad it's OOS

[wraith steeple]

And since they are ethylene based, it is wise to dispose it at like an autozone or equivalent once maintenance comes along

[low sorrel]

Yo how the fuck do I keep failing captchas

[low sorrel]

Wait it's like 50% cheaper to buy dyed modmymods or X1 coolent

[brisk jolt]

we’re gonna see next month jerry having a leak

“a leakage of what?”

[teal orbit]

I have the CPU socket full of water I mean full of water

[shell void]

you should grow some seamonkeys in there

[low sorrel]

Must be the water

[teal orbit]

What the hell is that isnt that a Firefox fork

[shell void]

you didnt have a tank of sea monkeys as a kid???

[low sorrel]

No I had a goldfish that died

[shell void]

noob

[teal orbit]

No wtf is that

[low sorrel]

Actually kinda sad that there used to be 6 in the tank

And then 5

[shell void]

my childhood goldfish was big and old as hell

[low sorrel]

And then 4 and then 3 and then 2 and then 1

[low sorrel]

The last of the 6 lasted 13 years

[shell void]

little shrimp that eat algae

[low sorrel]

https://tenor.com/view/blub-blub-blub-meow-cat-fish-gif-10131274653267510240

[shell void]

the sea monkey brand was intending for you to just grow the shrimp as a pet themselves

but yeah you can grow brine shrimp as feed for fish

[low sorrel]

Side note

When feeding brine shrimp remember to wear gloves

You can randomly develop an allergy to them

[turbid locust]

@pure garnet does your Mpower also just… not set voltages when enabling XMP?

[brisk jolt]

like it doesnt show the changed values?

[pure garnet]

i will let you know tomorrow

[turbid locust]

Yeah voltages stay auto

[brisk jolt]

yeah it does that

[turbid locust]

Does it still apply?

[brisk jolt]

it auto applies but it doesnt show you the specifics it applies

[turbid locust]

Ah ok

[brisk jolt]

but the next boot into the bios does show the voltages

[turbid locust]

lets see if my H24M's XMP just works without touching anything

I'm suspect of that ProcODT PU resistance being 32 Ohm and not 40 but we'll see

From all my testing this cpu likes 40 Ohm PU for 8200

but ive never tested it with H24M

If XMP just works without me touching it, it would be quite cool to know for this chip and board

[brisk jolt]

mine didnt boot on auto XMP so fuck this chip

[turbid locust]

ngl I thought this kit's xmp was 8000

i opened zentimings and went "oh" lmfao

also thought it was 1.45v and not 1.4v

[brisk jolt]

I think I’d be stupid enough to buy this if it was CL26

[valid snow]

anyone know where I can find Nvidia Tesla P100 liquid cooler blocks in bulk (yes ive googled)

[turbid locust]

6K28 is still beating 95% of kits out there

[brisk jolt]

i want to beat the other 5%

[signal parrot]

ebay, aliexpress, other chinese marketplaces

[turbid locust]

lol

[valid snow]

i could also go with SXM2 to PCIE adapters but its SXM2 conversion and I can assume it wouldnt be great

[brisk jolt]

if im overpaying I want to get the best lol

[slim pebble]

I felt bad enough buying 96GB at CL26

[valid snow]

none have it.

[brisk jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/mujikcboro-seriymujik-gif-24361533

[slim pebble]

Back when it was $480

[turbid locust]

I felt bad paying $180 for my 6000cl26 1.4v kit at the time

I could probably sell this shit for $800 rn

[brisk jolt]

I see one 6400CL32 royal silver for fuckin $770 like goddamn

[signal parrot]

then there is most likely 0 demand for it and id either abandon that idea or start thinking about designing and ordering it somewhere

[brisk jolt]

i see one 1.45v kit for 470

bnib

[slim pebble]

It’s still insanity right now

[brisk jolt]

I’d like my final D5 kit to be a CL26 kit 64gb

[turbid locust]

yeah 1.4v went EOL like 2 months after release

you cant buy these anymore

this probably just works lmao

[storm hatch]

yea def strong and securely built

[pure garnet]

i was gonna ask why you're not on 1.3 and i see msi never shipped it for the mpower

master class of a company lol

[turbid locust]

1.3 AGESA?

[pure garnet]

yeah

with the new refresh options

[turbid locust]

its out i just didnt bother updating

[pure garnet]

not that i see

[turbid locust]

full 1.3 is the top one there is it not

[pure garnet]

they don't have it labeled that way, spreadsheet says so

[turbid locust]

hmm

[pure garnet]

oh wait

i read pi as pre because nobody else calls it pi-

[turbid locust]

oh lol

[pure garnet]

im assuming this is just expo 1.2

[pure garnet]

do you use mcr at 8200

[turbid locust]

if it autos yes

shit boots quicko mode so I’m assuming it’s on

[pure garnet]

then yeah

[turbid locust]

XOC'ers hate it cause its not asus and wont let them dump 1.9v vcore but

[pure garnet]

it will probs just get an apu once i get back from my trip

[turbid locust]

for an ambient warrior like myself this shits kinda lit

[pure garnet]

since i have the apex daily now

[turbid locust]

dailying the apex is BM

[pure garnet]

i got a good deal 👍

[turbid locust]

still BM. Daily the mpower.

[pure garnet]

matx budget board less aura than apex

Cause it's z890

and the Apex is mid for z890

[cosmic gazelle]

time to try to run a 250 bclk on my fx setup

[frank cypress]

damn

$562 cad tho, crazy

$410 freedom doll hairs

[cosmic gazelle]

isn’t that like a pretty average price for a motherboard

what do we mean by cheap here

[frank cypress]

for an apex?

it's $771 USD on amazon.com, for context

[cosmic gazelle]

oh yeah idk the only high end motherboards i have are old and in the case of am3+ steaming piles of shit

my z97 ud5h is an absolute gem tho

thats what i bought mine new for from MC like 6 months ago

[cosmic gazelle]

i can’t wait to start doing gaming testing on the fx 6300 and titan black just for the cpu to bottleneck every game i test

[turbid locust]

sold it used for 400 lmao

wtf damn

Z890 boards are basically free

[frank cypress]

i mean i wouldn't but it cause it'd be useless for me, but i am a lil shocked to see it going for so little contrary to what i'd expect

the Hero held $350 for a long time, idk if it's still there

[turbid locust]

this is the move rn tho

[frank cypress]

if only ddr5 wasn't so expensive 😔

[pure garnet]

yeah 280 is fire

[frank cypress]

i want to move on from 4x32 to 2x64 or something

[turbid locust]

im glad i got a handful of kits for decent prices before it went to shit

[cosmic gazelle]

which of these is less bad?

[turbid locust]

FUCK

[shell void]

2x128GB 7200MT/s 4R CUDIMMs exist now, life would be so great if the RAM price boom didn't happen

[cosmic gazelle]

is rheee anything better about chdimms besides better speeds

[low sorrel]

Delays the onsight of soldered memory on desktops

[cosmic gazelle]

lmao

[pure garnet]

the clock redriver helps with signal integrity

[low sorrel]

So better speeds

[shell void]

the purpose of CUDIMMs are to improve memory stability on mediocre 4-slot boards so that Intel feels more comfortable advertising higher official memory speeds

[cosmic gazelle]

signal integrity schmigmal integrity. 2 volts to the soc, now.

[shell void]

(and AMD next gen)

AMD will get CUDIMM support three years late 👍

[frank cypress]

good for the 5 people who can afford ddr5 cudimm in this economy 🥀

[turbid locust]

kit im benching rn is cudimm but its on AM5 so its moot

[valid snow]

Bro why are 1650W power supplies 500$

you will buy hudimm and you will like it

[cosmic gazelle]

bbldimm

[minor herald]

cudimm on ryzen 7000/9000 i dont think will help at all unless maybe running 2:1:1 at like 8800

[brisk jolt]

inb4 the imcs strictly adhere to average bin at 8000

[turbid locust]

It doesnt help at all because CUDIMM isnt supported lmfao

[minor herald]

lets see if they fix it next gen

[turbid locust]

I mean shit, half the people on z890 running 9000+ put them in bypass mode anyway

[cosmic gazelle]

can we just move on to ROC (ram on chip) where the entire os runs in l3 cache

[turbid locust]

CUDIMM is kinda useless for DDR5 as a whole, it will be much more prevalent for DDR6

[minor herald]

yes most things that come out after main gen and not standed are like that

someone has to have the intellect to convince some linux distro to run solely within the l3 cache of a chip with 384mb

[minor herald]

what cpu?

[cosmic gazelle]

epyc 9965

[minor herald]

ok you do know how the cache works on that cpu right

[cosmic gazelle]

why would i know how the cache works on an obscure 10 thousand dollar processor

[minor herald]

ccd to ccd almost has same latacny as ccd to ram
and the bandwidth is lower

[cosmic gazelle]

and i’m talking about running an os in l3 cache i don’t think real world performance is really what we’re after here 😭

[minor herald]

lol

[low sorrel]

This some racism I ordered my pho a hour and 20 minutes ago and I still haven't gotten my damn pho

Literally everyone else is done eating

Pho more like fuck you in particular jerry

[cosmic gazelle]

have you tried being asian

[low sorrel]

I'm asian

[cosmic gazelle]

oh yeah that was the only idea i had

[old juniper]

I am quickly learning that home theater audio is a PITA

[lapis bobcat]

Anyone play Escape From Tarkov?? Trying to get some help

[turbid locust]

@merry stirrup

[old juniper]

I have some Sony front, center, and sub speakres. I want to add rear/sides for 5.1 No problem, Sony makes the SS-CS5 bookshelf speakers for this. Except they're impossible to mount. I have to buy stands, which seem to cost more than the damn speakers, plus they're ugly

[cosmic gazelle]

i do also what’s up

[frank cypress]

damn 7970x cheap now

too bad ddr5 rdimms costs an arm and a leg combined 💀

[brisk jolt]

how do you escape from tarkov

[topaz veldt]

Be more Asian

[merry stirrup]

NO

[turbid locust]

oh ok sorry

[cosmic gazelle]

see gif above

[frank cypress]

2.6k cad for 4x16gb 😭

more than the cpu 💀

[low sorrel]

how do i get good at tarkov

[fringe fossil]

You don’t that’s the fun part

[cosmic gazelle]

floppa i'm pretty sure i'm not gonna get a decent sub until the cooler shows up

245bclk appears to be stable which is great for cpu nb but i'm hitting 75c in r20 which is really really bad for fx as far as i can tell

i did get a new best clock-corrected score in r20 of 512 without touching the cpu multiplier technically

[turbid locust]

@merry stirrup @topaz veldt @shell void H24M be my savior

[pure garnet]

@turbid locust do not update the mpower bios

same fucked up gpu bug

[turbid locust]

kek

[pure garnet]

once i install os im flashing back to seby bios

[turbid locust]

im still on the one that fucks up igpu output lmaooooo

[pure garnet]

no it fucks up dgpu on latest

[turbid locust]

fire lmao

[cosmic gazelle]

let's go baby

i got 260bclk booting

dunno bout stability but it's booting

[minor herald]

time for 2100mhz fclk

[turbid locust]

very easy, just making sure 8400 is possible

[trim agate]

What the pho

[turbid locust]

this chip does 2200fclk all day every day

even at 1.3vsoc

[cosmic gazelle]

i do 2167 at auto vsoc i think lol

i need to disclose that this oc sucks and i gave up halfway through because i got annoyed

[turbid locust]

i mean thats just expo no?

[cosmic gazelle]

no

[turbid locust]

oh

[cosmic gazelle]

far tighter on many timings than expo

this kit is slow

[turbid locust]

if it's not hynix ic idk how it works

[cosmic gazelle]

it's micron 16d

shit memory

[turbid locust]

@merry stirrup does micron have a usable IC yet?

[cosmic gazelle]

i googled it a couple months ago and d die is one of the better ones and i can't lower any of my primaries past where they're at

and trfc won't budge either

[pure garnet]

2/3/1 nitro in 1:1 is pain

1/2/0 is what you want

[cosmic gazelle]

i did that because i was trying to figure out why i couldn't mcr

[turbid locust]

I havent done a genuine 1:1 tune in so long idk what normal values are

[cosmic gazelle]

i'm going to try to dial down a 4400 tune because i lowkenuinely think it's the best performance i'm gonna extract from this ram

[pure garnet]

1/2/0 until 6400+ then 1/3/1

might be 0/2/1 i’m sleepy

[turbid locust]

I never bothered changing nitro settings tbh. Potential instability for what? barely better latency?

[cosmic gazelle]

i get the heebie jeebies trying to tune my main system because it's expensive for me lol, i prefer to run 125% fsb speed on a garbage platform

[pure garnet]

the zoid said to set them years ago so i do it

i just had my cpu proc hot shutdown lmao

maybe 20% fans 10% pump isn’t enough

[turbid locust]

bro lol

[pure garnet]

dude this aio is dc and annoying

[cosmic gazelle]

why would you not just run 100% pump i can barely even hear mine

[turbid locust]

loud and needless

[cosmic gazelle]

i have an asetek 7th gen or whatever and it's like imperceptible

[turbid locust]

I literally see zero temp scaling between 70% and 100% on every AIO i own

[cosmic gazelle]

that may be true i have no idea

got a top 10% fx 6300 passmark score w core clock capped to 3820mhz

i'm basically giving it the ipc of a sandy bridge i3

[pure garnet]

okay well if windows broke because it shut off mid chipset driver installer that’ll be annoying

[turbid locust]

still truckin

[cosmic gazelle]

mac i dunno if you've tried it yet but if i set my timings to auto and my ram speed to 4400 will my bios be clueless and leave all the timings super high

i don't know what a good baseline is for 4400 is the problem because there's so little tuning information out there on it

[turbid locust]

yeah boards dont auto timings well with abnormal freq

[merry stirrup]

i mean 4400 is meta

[turbid locust]

BZ said it's bad for everything that isnt X3D

[cosmic gazelle]

good thing i have x3d

[turbid locust]

They should have put a DDR4 controller on Zen 4 and 5

[cosmic gazelle]

this is my last attempt and i’m going to bed

if it doesnt boot i have to knock ht ratio to 10 i think

oh it booted we good

yeah @merry stirrup that gigabyte board was fucked i'm at 2600 cpu nb rn and doing just fine

[frank cypress]

which place?

[pure garnet]

why does flashback take so fucking long man

[maiden prairie]

Wtfff

[torpid cargo]

Have you gotten your pho yet?

[solemn widget]

bro i wish to contribute to any open source application in github, but am not that much skilled, in same way am not so called vibe coder tho, so anyone can tell me some opensource repos related to node so i can practice some : )

[pure garnet]

write your own project

[turbid locust]

im going to bed, hope this lives

[hazy zealot]

Y'all think 650€ a good price for a 9070xt?

[turbid locust]

I forgot how long it takes to cover 48GB lmao

[turbid locust]

literally google-able question

[hazy zealot]

Or should I say is gigabyte a reliable GPU brand

[turbid locust]

Nobody here is going to know your specific market

[minor herald]

time for me to send 1 bit of cosmic radiation

[turbid locust]

If it lives I may retry with lower VDDP

[pure garnet]

my setup is decidely better

[turbid locust]

1.2v VDDP, although BZ said it was fine, makes me a little uncomfy

[turbid locust]

W jedec

[pure garnet]

i always do installs at jedec

[turbid locust]

understandable

I did my last windows install at 8200 LMAO

[pure garnet]

well always as in at least since i started tuning ram on my own

[turbid locust]

I wish that karhu gui worked for me so I could set it to 50000% coverage and not think about it

[pure garnet]

once win update finishes im gonna load back up 8000cl34 and let that burn overnight

for the first time in a long time my bench has a respectably sized ssd

[trim agate]

Find anything on GitHub that you actively use and want an additional feature for, then just do it in a fork

E.g. I have host an image uploader site for embeds saved locally and I wrote my own upload button in a fork

[turbid locust]

at this rate though with rough math that would take 34.7 hours lmfao

[pure garnet]

dual ram fans putting in work rn fr

[turbid locust]

Im gonna let this go overnight and if it lives I will touch some timings to make testing faster and then let it go again

[turbid locust]

uhhhhhh these spreaders are BAD holy fuck lmfao

side panel open with fan

[pure garnet]

i don't have karhu open rn and im at 1.1v tbf

[turbid locust]

ts might temp error at 65K tREFI

[pure garnet]

but i have 2 fans on my ram from arl

one in front blowing air on them and one mounted right above them pulling air out of the heatsink
