[merry stirrup]

[steel stream]

So empty and bland

[topaz veldt]

But I'm on a sofa outside

[shell void]

[steel stream]

I suppose this will get a pass

[topaz veldt]

So it's but like really outside

[topaz veldt]

We're ready

[merry stirrup]

pulling up see you in one cross country flight

[steel stream]

I wore mine “outdoors” when I’d wear them to school for morning swim practice that was about it

[steel stream]

Better get that fire going

[topaz veldt]

Too lazy

[merry stirrup]

[steel stream]

Me and a some buddies got carried away the other night

[merry stirrup]

its been warmer here so

[steel stream]

Almost summoned a balrog I think

[merry stirrup]

[shell void]

using this mbp16 in bed reaffirms my belief that a macbook air 15 OLED would be peak laptop

[steel stream]

All my photos are legit

[merry stirrup]

no of a balrog

[steel stream]

Ohhhhhhh

[merry stirrup]

LOL i believe your fire bro

[steel stream]

Damn floppa gotta up your ball knowledge smh

[steel stream]

That would be really tempting to me if they could keep it around a similar price

[merry stirrup]

this guy couldnt fathom that i didnt know what a "balrog" was

[shell void]

it looks like a person holding something in one arm against their body

[merry stirrup]

it looks like a person holding a torch from the front but in cartoonish style

[steel stream]

Bro they are only morgoths servants smh 🤦

[merry stirrup]

WHAT IS THIS GUY TALKING ABOUT

[shell void]

you shan’t pass fn

[merry stirrup]

LOL

[steel stream]

The pit was just full of sticks and they burned bright and tall for a bit

[turbid locust]

banger status on my shit rn

[shell void]

d rose is genuinely better than half of eminem’s discography

[steel stream]

Idk who d rose is so I have to abstain

[merry stirrup]

same

[steel stream]

Eminem is just that guy from Michigan though

[merry stirrup]

true

[merry stirrup]

OH THE SONGGG

[steel stream]

Ah

[merry stirrup]

yknow what ill put it on just for you

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress this motherboard is really nice ngl

[merry stirrup]

brother we have newgen taste for the most part

[shell void]

i don’t love the song, but it’s what mac’s status is talking about

[merry stirrup]

i do see now

[shell void]

half of ems discography is just not fun to listen to

[topaz veldt]

Should I put my 6000 CL26 48gb kit in my family room PC and see if it'll run 8000 again

[merry stirrup]

i also agree that music should be fun

bro talkin bout some gerbil doin WHAT yeah im good

imagine buying a cd of a new album and that being on it

imagine paying for that song

[steel stream]

I’m just not super interested in his music, or the genre

Like its hype and all listening to him sometimes, but it would never go into a playlist of mine

[shell void]

unfortunately my bamboo and cotton blend fitted bedsheet has a dr pepper stain

[steel stream]

Fuck.

[shell void]

there were prolly millions of cds with fack on it at one point in time

[steel stream]

I’m a big pop, r&b, and alternative type of guy

[merry stirrup]

😭

idk i like specific artists but definitely lean toward rap more than anything else

Pierre like the closest thing i get to r&b

[frank cypress]

yes

you can replace the image on it

[low sorrel]

Bruh the PSU cable ain't long enough

[frank cypress]

I have a bad apple gif iirc

[frank cypress]

huh

[merry stirrup]

huh

[frank cypress]

[low sorrel]

I can't plug it into the outlet lol

[frank cypress]

oh

[steel stream]

I listen to hella Bruno mars r&b

[low sorrel]

Yes

[frank cypress]

o

[shell void]

s3rl the goat

[merry stirrup]

https://open.spotify.com/album/5UVpPKPFL23UdaGafo0S9w?si=7KzVnnAsQzmP0s-LgPcQeA

this whole album does not miss

[turbid locust]

@merry stirrup I bought those high compression thermal pads, hopefully I can find those byski heatspreaders I bought lmao

[steel stream]

If I remember I’ll listen tomorrow

[merry stirrup]

also its pierre so all the songs transition nicely too

[shell void]

i have been indulging in some don toliver for the first time in the last couple of months

[merry stirrup]

pieree is also just my favorite producer ever im biased as fuck but that is my favorite album of his

[steel stream]

This is a super weird album I highly recommend giving a listen to

[shell void]

the art is fire

[steel stream]

The music kinda flows through like a play almost, super unique

This was my most recent addition though

[turbid locust]

Prowler in the Yard by Pig Destroyer is my favorite rap album

[merry stirrup]

okay unc

[steel stream]

That’s a fucking fire name

[merry stirrup]

elaborate

[turbid locust]

I can’t send the album art here

[merry stirrup]

LOL okay

[shell void]

his tag makes me think of snail inviting people out to his patio

[steel stream]

Also stupid Dolby atmos on iPhone speakers

[merry stirrup]

LOL

[steel stream]

Yeah I see why

[merry stirrup]

i dont think he uses the yo pierre tag in tlop4

he uses random bits of soss memes

[merry stirrup]

😭

idk why he did that but i think the album is great otherwise

[steel stream]

Are you guys a one mega playlist person or multiple different ones

[turbid locust]

I shuffle my liked songs

[merry stirrup]

i have one playlist thats a little over 24 hrs if that counts as mega but i usually listen to artists or albums at a time

[devout ridge]

One massive playlist, with a few small ones for hyper-specific things

[turbid locust]

or just listen to albums at a time

[merry stirrup]

oh my bad its actually only 15 hours

[steel stream]

Bro knows ball

[merry stirrup]

yeah albums are the play

[steel stream]

Mines at like 14 and 40 minutes rn

[devout ridge]

i’ve been listening to a bunch of musicals recently

[merry stirrup]

more entertaining

[devout ridge]

The Outsiders and The Great Gatsby are great

[turbid locust]

I listen to Hybrid Theory at least once a week

[merry stirrup]

i listen to die lit at least once every 3 days

[steel stream]

Now that I have nice headphones I do albums in like dedicated sessions, but if I’m just gaming it’s the mega playlist and just skipping around

[merry stirrup]

yeah same

[wraith steeple]

Back in my band kid days, I played for a couple of musicals in HS and college

[turbid locust]

I have nice headphones and speakers in my setup and almost never use them for music LMAO

[devout ridge]

i have the type of adhd where i listen to the same handful of songs until i cant stand to hear it anymore, then move on to the next handful

[turbid locust]

All my music consumption is via my AirPods or Car

[devout ridge]

so i almost always just hit play in order on my liked music

[merry stirrup]

that soundbar i got at goodwill is the carry for my music listening rn

sub

[devout ridge]

I have a 4 channel surround sound system in my bedroom for peak music listening

[steel stream]

Yeah imma have a long commute soon so I have to find audio books so I don’t ruin my playlist for me

[devout ridge]

Stereo fronts, mono surround, dedicated sub channel

[turbid locust]

I choose music based on whatever supports my current manic episode

[merry stirrup]

😭 mac

[steel stream]

Lost my AirPods though, so I legit can only listen to music at my desk or car

[merry stirrup]

3rd times the chram

[steel stream]

It was better as :sob”

[turbid locust]

I mean it’s true bro lol

[frank cypress]

my soviet rock does not mix with my girlie pop

[merry stirrup]

FFAWKk

[indigo walrus]

Many, many, MANY playlists. Slaps Spotify client. This bad boy can pack so many playlists.

[merry stirrup]

god DAMN

[steel stream]

Yeah if you listen to hella genres it might be a good idea to do that lol

[turbid locust]

I recently like restarted my mental health process and shit and had a full psych eval done recently and the current theory is that my “ADHD” is actually just ongoing manic episodes

[steel stream]

Ok ok nice

[devout ridge]

I use amazon music since my parents have an amazon prime membership that includes it

the best streaming service is the one i don’t have to pay for

[frank cypress]

jeez

[wraith steeple]

I have the most bipolar taste in music. I could listen to Morbid Angel and the next track I would be traditional old Arabic music

[steel stream]

That’s some interesting “ADHD” then

[merry stirrup]

evil brain 😭

[turbid locust]

yeah Bipolar-1 is my favorite SKU of ADHD

[hoary hatch]

YouTube music --> My Supermix

[indigo walrus]

Same. There are a handful of genres I won't / don't listen to, otherwise it's pretty much open game.

[hoary hatch]

I don't have a single playlist

[steel stream]

So are the episodes just more mild then? I’ve heard of manic episodes where people just go nuts

If you don’t mind answering Mac, I don’t want to poke too much

[frank cypress]

I just have phases

im back to Whitney Houston recently

love her voice

[turbid locust]

I mean it varies but I have like a proper bad moment once every month or so

[merry stirrup]

man

[turbid locust]

Otherwise it’s just days long manic/depressive episodes

[devout ridge]

I’m on a big musical kick rn

before that it was 80’s rock

[wraith steeple]

Guitar/Clone Hero has heavy influenced my taste in harder rock/metal music

[merry stirrup]

my mother

[steel stream]

Damn that’s brutal, I hope you find smth that works for you

[wraith steeple]

And even from my parents as they had me fairly young

[turbid locust]

but like I’ve been unknowingly dealing with it for so long now I’m basically a high functioning bipolar lmfao

[merry stirrup]

i simply dont get evaluated

[turbid locust]

Manic episode? Brother I’m just locked in tf

[merry stirrup]

REAL

[steel stream]

I should go get evaluated but eh

[frank cypress]

REAL

I went to get evaluated for adhd with my family physician

[young void]

takes long sip from an empty cup

[steel stream]

Let me just try essential oils and self help first

[turbid locust]

Started some medication so we’ll see. I’m terrified I’ll lose my swag fr.

[frank cypress]

so I went to fill out the things and I was like

[arctic bronze]

I have 1083 songs in my playlist

[frank cypress]

"shit im not gonna take the medicine anyways" so I just never returned

[steel stream]

Can’t let the white boy lose his motion 🙏

[merry stirrup]

288

[low sorrel]

Holy shit those p12s Max's MOVE AIR

[hoary hatch]

Like a test?

[frank cypress]

yeah

[turbid locust]

deadass that’s what I’m saying bro

[hoary hatch]

Interesting

[merry stirrup]

you still my goat mac

[frank cypress]

he gave me a few to fill out

im pretty sure I do have it based on the tests but like

[hoary hatch]

I was diagnosed at like 5 or 6 so I have absolutely no recollection of the experience

[frank cypress]

cba

it is what it is

[wraith steeple]

I remember when GH first dropped. I played that shit religiously. I even made crowds at the local Dave & Busters whenever I would play on the Guitar Hero Arcade....

[steel stream]

Mac gonna become a well adjusted individual on meds and realize why the fuck he is in LTTCord and leave

[indigo walrus]

And then you forgot to fill out the rest of the form because you placed it somewhere "safe so you would remember to fill it out", then when your doctor followed up, they said "ah, yes, forgetting to complete the form even though you meant to is common for those with ADHD... welcome to the club!" 🤣 😬 👍

[merry stirrup]

LOL

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress I need a p12 max as a desk fan they move so much air

[merry stirrup]

ill send a letter to him fr

[turbid locust]

But like my psychiatrist dude is barely older than me and seems like a goat so we ball

[turbid locust]

I’ve been here this long lol

[frank cypress]

I put it off for like 3 weeks before never finishing them

[wraith steeple]

Though nowadays I'm lucky to not get severe carpal tunnel on songs from DF and Slayer

[frank cypress]

they will absolutely fuck up your fingers too

[merry stirrup]

fawk bro same 😭

i went from brick to less of a brick

[hoary hatch]

This is why you are supposed to put appointments in your calendar half an hour earlier than they actually are so you can frantically fill out all the documents you were supposed to complete 2 months ago

[steel stream]

Damn I’ve been here 3 years already

Fuck

[frank cypress]

I usually set hour, hour thirty min alarms before my reminders

[merry stirrup]

yeah idk hasnt felt super long but i suppose thats the problem

[hoary hatch]

You must be new here

[turbid locust]

But yeah turns out the occasional days long “I’m the fucking goat I’m the greatest to ever do it and nobody can fuck with me” moments are “manic episodes” like god forbid a mf feel himself????

[indigo walrus]

Yep. And then you end up being late to every single appointment / meeting / event in your life anyway because of time blindness and/or waiting mode. Send help.

[steel stream]

I gotta touch some grass

[hoary hatch]

You're all LTTcord infants

[steel stream]

They’re clipping your wings

[hoary hatch]

Shit that's getting close to 10 years

[turbid locust]

ON GOD

[frank cypress]

I think i joined late 2022 before I left for a bit then came back

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress how does the riser work I'm so confused

[merry stirrup]

this conversation couldnt swing any harder

[frank cypress]

take out the silver screw

then you slide it in

[hoary hatch]

Naw not me
My parents made me late to everything growing up through sheer incompetence so I make it a point to never be late because I will not be my parents

[turbid locust]

checks out lets be honest

[merry stirrup]

i went from being worried about a homie to giggling

[low sorrel]

oh.

I took out the entire thing

[merry stirrup]

oh

[frank cypress]

replace said silver screw afterwards

[merry stirrup]

so is jerry a twink or is it the opposite

[turbid locust]

bro like the last 30 mins of the eval was bro just educating me and being like “yeah when ur like this? That’s mania” and im just like “oh word?”

[hoary hatch]

Wait @indigo walrus and I have the same LTTcord birthday

[merry stirrup]

i attributed the mouse with small

[indigo walrus]

https://tenor.com/view/chocolate-cake-eating-cannibalism-nom-tasty-gif-12568044130784072865

[frank cypress]

[fierce shell]

https://gif.fxtwitter.com/tweet_video/HHzWslTX0AArbdO.webp

[devout tangle]

Lies. You look old.

[merry stirrup]

[turbid locust]

Those weeks where you only sleep like 4 hours a night but you’re still good? Mania.

[frank cypress]

[hoary hatch]

Go back to #pilot-toast

[frank cypress]

[merry stirrup]

RELEVANT IMAGE

[devout tangle]

What's that?

[frank cypress]

Jerry hasn't experienced the horrors of life

[hoary hatch]

Ugh floatplane chat is leaking again

[frank cypress]

LMAO

[turbid locust]

ball knowledge

[merry stirrup]

pilot toast is freaked out 24-7 its scary

[wraith steeple]

[low sorrel]

[merry stirrup]

[low sorrel]

I found all the fan screws tho

[frank cypress]

bro losing everything

[indigo walrus]

Locked in until you reach peak burnout... and then really bad things start to happen. 🙁

[merry stirrup]

it is OVER for this case

[hoary hatch]

Pilot toast is just sagara accusing syfulus of being rich every day

[devout tangle]

No that would be #public-chat

[merry stirrup]

public chat isnt worth clicking into

[hoary hatch]

Naw you spend way more time below the fold than in pilot toast

[devout ridge]

i don’t wanna have my brightness lowered

[turbid locust]

Yeah those moments are not great.

[merry stirrup]

saturation from 1 to .5

[wraith steeple]

Don't link me to that cursed place

[cosmic gazelle]

floppa bz just posted 9850x3d benchmark results and didn't include a 4400 tune

[merry stirrup]

unwatchable

[cosmic gazelle]

does this dude live in the 1900s get with the times

[devout ridge]

someone is currently bitching about windows idle ram usage in pub chat

[turbid locust]

shits like a gpu oc. You stress tested tf out of it and thought it was fine and then a week later, freak out.

[merry stirrup]

my uv has been oddly fine and i do not like it

[frank cypress]

sounds like somebody just needs more ram

[devout ridge]

REAL

[turbid locust]

the medication is just lowering the power limit in my brain bro

[devout ridge]

2x64 rn, take out a second mortgage

[hoary hatch]

Man Jedi fallen order is such a shit game

[merry stirrup]

[wraith steeple]

[wraith steeple]

[frank cypress]

[devout ridge]

Fuck that, buy me a new 9800x

[devout tangle]

Or moved down.

[merry stirrup]

how about the 9600x i have no use for

[devout tangle]

It was?

[turbid locust]

I had bad experiences with medical professionals when I was younger regarding my mental health and it took me like 5-6 years to try again and it’s already going better. You have to advocate for yourself.

[devout ridge]

20usd and a 6 pack of cold ones

[frank cypress]

yes

[devout tangle]

Can't remember.

😄

[merry stirrup]

pay shipping and drink them with me somehow

[hoary hatch]

Why do I want alcohol

[turbid locust]

It was really uncomfortable for me to try again but I’m already glad I did.

[merry stirrup]

noted

[devout ridge]

I’ll ship myself USPS overnight

[merry stirrup]

cannonball run to my house

[wraith steeple]

I've been doing more Retro computing builds lately. Honestly more fun if I'm being honest (I'm a masochist)

[devout tangle]

I swear the guy at CanadaComputers was like wtf?

[frank cypress]

ngl selling Jerry a custom loop is an interesting social experiment and im lowkey curious as to how its gonna end

[devout tangle]

Cash for CPU?

[frank cypress]

haha yes

[merry stirrup]

i build like a bazillion computers a day now so i dont even think about it a tthis point while i build

[turbid locust]

honestly the hardest part of the eval was explaining to bro that I wasn’t drinking to cope, it’s just bourbon is fkin delicious

[merry stirrup]

i can build a computer in freakin 32 minutes

[merry stirrup]

i wouldnt know and havent had great experiences with alcohol so

however i respect the hobby

smoking and day drinking in the park

[turbid locust]

I don’t even drink that much, like 3 drinks a week probably if that

[hoary hatch]

I need to make my windows worse so I can experience what seemingly every other PC user has to complain about Microsoft

[frank cypress]

@low sorrel tell me when you get the pc working

[merry stirrup]

jerry tell me if the pc will work

[turbid locust]

however the image I sent here Sunday probably implied more than this LMAO

[frank cypress]

it definitely worked before I sold it to him

[merry stirrup]

oh i believe you hes just silly

[hoary hatch]

Wait didn't Jerry get his credit card stolen yesterday

[merry stirrup]

yeah by ennui

[frank cypress]

well no, but he had a keylogger on his phone

[merry stirrup]

😭 WHATTT??

[wraith steeple]

The 486 build is a early I'm willing to build since yeah..... 386 mobos with Dallas clock batteries or CR2032s have been hard to come up and often ask for a hefty premium when they do appear

[frank cypress]

so he has to cancel the card

[pure garnet]

it’s jerry dude

[merry stirrup]

damn how does that even happen

[devout tangle]

By you?

[frank cypress]

god I wish

[merry stirrup]

deeply unfortunate sorry jerry but WHATTTT

[fervent chasm]

Android and apps

[hoary hatch]

This brings more questions than it answers

[frank cypress]

[merry stirrup]

i HATE android

[low sorrel]

The p12s are in the way

[hoary hatch]

[frank cypress]

I think its because i took the rad out for the quad 2080ti

[merry stirrup]

i thought you gave bro a box of components

[low sorrel]

I decided to add the rad

[frank cypress]

so he put the rad back in so the fans weren't just floating in there

[turbid locust]

[low sorrel]

Hi gulity

Just take a razor blade at it and make it fit

I did that with my car, some things weren’t lining up

[frank cypress]

bro i don't think you're using the vert mount right

[merry stirrup]

have a personal 9600x and work allocated 9600x hopefully one does 8400 LOL

[turbid locust]

like the Hero claims 8600+ but that shits $500 lmao

[frank cypress]

💀

[merry stirrup]

they just gave me a full test bed so

[turbid locust]

Ask for an 8700G for valid

[frank cypress]

it should look like that

[merry stirrup]

id get 8400F at best

but youre right mwah

[fervent chasm]

I’m still 31st place for my ram to get repaired by NWR 🥀

[merry stirrup]

bro it is over

[fervent chasm]

I’m so impatient

[merry stirrup]

ram might actually get cheap before it comes in

[pure garnet]

just use a real shop over a youtuber

ez fix

[fervent chasm]

Probably gonna charge an arm and a leg

They quoted $150 for the repair if it is successful and $50 for failure

[low sorrel]

I figured it out

[fervent chasm]

If they fail to fix I’m just gonna put it up on eBay for some other nerd to fix it

Maybe I can get $200 for it

[merry stirrup]

what is it?

[fervent chasm]

2x64 6400 kit

[merry stirrup]

noted

[fervent chasm]

For what

You mess with ram?

[merry stirrup]

what if i want to be the nerd that fixes it

[merry stirrup]

one could say i dabble

[frank cypress]

2x64.... that sounds so yummy

[low sorrel]

Oh FML I forgot to put the riser in

[fervent chasm]

It’s probably just some missing pieces that I saw, I don’t think any of the traces are messed up or anything like that

[frank cypress]

I want to get rid of my 4x32

[merry stirrup]

not reliably but if i got it to work for my server then freak you buddy

[low sorrel]

Plug

[merry stirrup]

pluh

[frank cypress]

hmm my confidence in Jerry is falling by the hour

[turbid locust]

Damn Gigabyte has $200 4 dimmers rated for 8200

[frank cypress]

wondering if it was a mistake

[brisk jolt]

[wraith steeple]

Okay the manual is showing an old school ATX PSU, AGP supported motherboard, and an ATI Radeon based AGP for examples..... Okay that's actually pretty cool NGL

[frank cypress]

😂

[merry stirrup]

the b850 vc or tomahawk is rated for 8200 and 8400 respectively

gigabyte bios is poo

[devout tangle]

Do you even still have an AGP GPU lol

[turbid locust]

It’s the only major vendor I haven’t owned an AM5 board from

[merry stirrup]

VC is 150$

[turbid locust]

I liked my Gigabyte AM4 board

[fervent chasm]

Is this one

It went up in price again

It was $1.4k when I ordered it lol

[merry stirrup]

idk its probs garbotron but i mean it would be cool with a server

realistically i could single channel my server and flip the other dimm rahhhh

but low chance they cant fix it realistically

[turbid locust]

Why’s the tomahawk rated so high what’s it do differently

[pure garnet]

the latest msi bios for the mpower is literally broken

[merry stirrup]

its the mpower

[fervent chasm]

Nah I think they can do it

[merry stirrup]

every single vendor sucks at supporting oc boards besides asus

[low sorrel]

Why's... It not post

[fervent chasm]

I’ve seen one of their videos on ram repair

[pure garnet]

if msi can't make the gpu work in the bios

[fervent chasm]

Pretty smart group

[pure garnet]

they count as poo bios

[turbid locust]

Wait am I stupid why would I not just buy another Mpower

[frank cypress]

💀

[merry stirrup]

on one specific board as opposed to every gigabyte am5 board

its just not a great bios man

ux fart

[pure garnet]

why not just daily gene

[frank cypress]

whats the 7segment code displaying? @low sorrel

[merry stirrup]

hes doing 8400 rn

[fervent chasm]

Oh you know what’s crazy @merry stirrup

[merry stirrup]

fortnite

[merry stirrup]

prolly doesnt want to do terms hell on gene

[wraith steeple]

My kit has officially reached the $1000 USD mark

[fervent chasm]

They just released a video showing a new product that helps test RAM modules, so it’s good that it took so long

[turbid locust]

If I can get 8400 functional on the Gene I’m lowkey down but that fucker only has one m.2 slot 😭

[merry stirrup]

it

[pure garnet]

the apex basically does too

i have to use dimm.2 for my 2nd ssd

[fervent chasm]

Literally 4 days ago https://youtu.be/05qYiRBXlXE?si=REq60V4HVMueMQ85

[turbid locust]

I don’t have the dimm.2 card

[merry stirrup]

:(

[fervent chasm]

Their thumbnails are funny

[brisk jolt]

jesus christ one is so sad

[pure garnet]

oof

[fervent chasm]

That’s a lot

I’m so glad my 2x32 kit sold

[merry stirrup]

per gb is pretty high yeah

[turbid locust]

Idk I just need to just leave my pc alone

[fervent chasm]

It was a 5200 or 5400 kit I didn’t expect to sell

Had 10 views and got an offer for $500

[turbid locust]

Only reason I’d go ATX is for better ram cooling lmfao

[low sorrel]

D6

[merry stirrup]

i have these ones i think

[low sorrel]

GPU missing lol

[merry stirrup]

paid 240

[fervent chasm]

Man I really hope they fix the 2x64 so I can sell the 4x48

[low sorrel]

Gotta do the good old reset gpu

[cosmic gazelle]

4400 meta makes these better than h16a btw

(waiting for mac to send me a death threat)

[fervent chasm]

You talking about the AMD thing

[merry stirrup]

you have very limited testing dont speak in absolutes

[frank cypress]

you can also try cmos clear

[brisk jolt]

thats only assuming it can only do 2200 fclk 💀

[merry stirrup]

& yeah we're not peasants

[frank cypress]

also, I believe the x570 godlike is dual bios so

[turbid locust]

I think I go back to the HDV and hope my chip doesn’t explode

[cosmic gazelle]

i'm trolling flop cmon you of all people should know that

[brisk jolt]

Between 4400 and 8k I’d very much prefer 8k lol

[merry stirrup]

yes but still some silly guy is going to read and go "yeah ok"

[cosmic gazelle]

8000+ is like guaranteed better than 4400 as far as i can tell

[merry stirrup]

HURARRYA

sweep your floor while it boots

my bad

[fervent chasm]

I hope you blue screen

[low sorrel]

Time to figure out why one of the fans aren't spinning tho

Probably cable

[frank cypress]

might be

in fairness to Jerry, the back of the pc is a nightmare

[brisk jolt]

must be the jerry curse

[frank cypress]

cause of the long bus psu

[merry stirrup]

\augh what unit is in it

[frank cypress]

it makes it annoying as fuck to work back there

[merry stirrup]

yeah im happy im off the schoolbus for daily

[frank cypress]

1600t2

[low sorrel]

EVGA 1600 t2

[merry stirrup]

ok yeah so its as big as my g2

[low sorrel]

Bro my back is in pain

[frank cypress]

its why I sold it to him:)

[merry stirrup]

yeah do it as your job now

see how you feel bro

[frank cypress]

and kept my rm850x

[cosmic gazelle]

floppa what are the chances i just go put 102 into my b650e bclk and nothing breaks

[merry stirrup]

why would you do that

[cosmic gazelle]

i need 2% extra performance immediately

[low sorrel]

Both PCs are fucking heavy

[frank cypress]

LMAOOOOO I literally had trouble sleeping cause it lowk fucked up my back when I was moving it to my room a couple days ago

[merry stirrup]

you were just on some "upgrading my cpu cooler would be useless for performance" but are all about the 2% clock bump

its not even 2% perf because perf does NOT scale linearly with clock

[cosmic gazelle]

i'm jk i'm just bored waiting out ram testing

[merry stirrup]

it might be one

[turbid locust]

90% but I killed a NVMe doing this

[merry stirrup]

yes

[topaz veldt]

not this again

[cosmic gazelle]

2% in exchange for 500 dollars

https://tenor.com/view/let-it-ride-let-it-ride-diem-gif-13460879079669063039

[merry stirrup]

is shit really that bad right now

[low sorrel]

Also is there really no 2.5in bays

[merry stirrup]

i havent bought anything relating to storage or memory since last year

[fervent chasm]

Why would you

Unless you’re snail

[frank cypress]

big black bracket in the box

[pure garnet]

if you dont have eclk it's a waste of time

[frank cypress]

but gl fitting that in

[merry stirrup]

pause

[cosmic gazelle]

only about $220 if i needed to replace my boot drive, i have a shitty qlc sabrent that i bought when i didn't know anything

[merry stirrup]

2.5in ssd brackets are genuinely useless and made by big case to make them cost more

[frank cypress]

long bus psu makes it hard enough to close

[merry stirrup]

the ssd can float

[turbid locust]

AGREE

[cosmic gazelle]

what dat mean

[fervent chasm]

Just hot clue each SSD on top of each other

[low sorrel]

Then why is the fanhub loose

[fervent chasm]

Why do you need a bracket

[merry stirrup]

this guy gets it

[turbid locust]

BCLK but only cpu

[cosmic gazelle]

https://tenor.com/view/trash-bag-throw-throwing-toss-gif-24163162

me to every ssd i have

[merry stirrup]

hdd yes it matters but the sata ssd can fucking vibe anywhere

[frank cypress]

cause if its in the back

[fervent chasm]

Oh I just stack my drives sideways lol

[frank cypress]

and I can close the case

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah but thats no fun i could just find a 2% better undervolt

[fervent chasm]

It’s on a 45 degree angle in the back of the case

[frank cypress]

then it managed

[merry stirrup]

i have cared about the 2.5 in ssd in precisely 1/3 computers ive used a sata ssd with

[cosmic gazelle]

also you can just manually raise core clock on 9800x3d can't you?

[frank cypress]

💪

[cosmic gazelle]

i would never try it because i'm not a fuckin idiot

[merry stirrup]

yeah

[turbid locust]

I haven’t had a SATA ssd in my main rig since 2022

[merry stirrup]

but bclk is on the table?

[cosmic gazelle]

never said it was lol just bored

[fervent chasm]

You guys remember that one guy who wanted his X3D to be at boost clock speed 24/7?

[low sorrel]

There's no screws

[merry stirrup]

jerry screws are pennies bro

[fervent chasm]

And we kept telling him that it was dumb and he just couldn’t accept it

[turbid locust]

C-States are for losers

[cosmic gazelle]

there's a difference between wanting it and complaining about it

[frank cypress]

oh

https://tenor.com/view/uhm-awkward-scratch-head-tre-melvin-tre-melvin-gifs-gif-11340180

[cosmic gazelle]

i certainly would love if my chip would run 5225 in all core benchmarks or something

but my cooler says no

[fervent chasm]

Oh yah, he was complaining he couldn’t do it on the 9950X3D but could on the 9800X3D

[merry stirrup]

when will 8 core cpus not be meta anymore

nvl please save us zen 6 save us im chill with either at this point

[turbid locust]

What are you cooling it with? A brick?

[merry stirrup]

(im not buying an amd daily)

[fervent chasm]

Why

Because AMD is poopy with ram?

[merry stirrup]

bad

[cosmic gazelle]

old probably somewhat degraded 280

[merry stirrup]

and general oc headroom yeah

amd cpu oc is literally tuning on pbo and +200 offset

[turbid locust]

I cool my 9850X3D just fine on a 240

I think ur mount is ass

[fervent chasm]

What about ARM OC

[merry stirrup]

then negative co if your chip is garbage and cant do fmax in whatever stress you want

[merry stirrup]

and so on

[cosmic gazelle]

🤷‍♂️ refuses to pull more than 150 watts and my weakest core messes up an easy all core offset

[merry stirrup]

then you compound that with the fact that they gimped their own cooling for almost no reason its silly idk

[fervent chasm]

Wdym

[merry stirrup]

thicc ihs

for am4 compatibility

[fervent chasm]

So it cools slower?

[merry stirrup]

slower is a weird way of putting it

but yes

[fervent chasm]

You know what I mean, it takes longer for the heat to move through the IHS

[turbid locust]

I mean mines literally the funny bin but it’ll do 5.3Ghz all core in R23 with -20 CO

[merry stirrup]

yeah

[turbid locust]

and like, that’s maxing at 79C

[merry stirrup]

fire

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah idk i kinda stopped malding about it because i don't have enough gpu power to care

[merry stirrup]

we are not the same

[cosmic gazelle]

but maybe i'll try remounting

[fervent chasm]

Does AMD have E/P core equivalent stuff?

[turbid locust]

we did moderate PBO testing on the 9850X3D awhile back

[merry stirrup]

c cores

[low sorrel]

That masking tape came useful lol

[merry stirrup]

zen5c what not

[cosmic gazelle]

i mean i get basically the same r23 multi as your -0 result on a 9800 so i feel like it's fine

[fervent chasm]

Is that the 2 die thing

[merry stirrup]

compact, less cache though or something per core

idk how it works fully on that end

theyre not useful on desktop so far really

aside from making budget chips even worse

👍

[fervent chasm]

That’s the one where 8 cores are regular and 8 are c cores? In the 16 core am5

[merry stirrup]

i think so

[fervent chasm]

Idk how it works either I just know they do something weird

[merry stirrup]

well no

i dont htink theres a 16 core chip with zen5c on am5

[turbid locust]

I need Zen 6 to go stupid mode for ram oc

[merry stirrup]

but one probably exists in general

[turbid locust]

Only AM5 chips with c cores are APUs

[merry stirrup]

yeah

and mobile i presume cause thats the same thing

[fervent chasm]

I was thinking of the 9950X3D

[turbid locust]

Idk anything about mobile

[merry stirrup]

nah thats different

[cosmic gazelle]

*tips fedora* heh… did somebody say ram oc

[fervent chasm]

Or is that just with 3D cache vs without?

[merry stirrup]

9950x3d has the cache layer and then a set of normal chip

[fervent chasm]

And that’s why we have 9950X3D2

[merry stirrup]

yeah

[merry stirrup]

which is 2 cache layered chips

[fervent chasm]

Ok that makes more sense

[merry stirrup]

CCD's if we wanna get freaky

[young void]

Ogres have layers

[fervent chasm]

So there’s nothing like LP cores yet?

[young void]

Chips have layers

[merry stirrup]

nah

[fervent chasm]

I wonder if they will follow the intel lead

[merry stirrup]

i think they are

dont remember the leaks

[fervent chasm]

52c nvl wen

[merry stirrup]

okay thats not happening but something more similar to intel for their mobile lineup perhaps idk

[fervent chasm]

Isn’t it supposed to be this year

[merry stirrup]

i could be hallucinating

[fervent chasm]

Wdym not happening

That’s one of the leaks

[merry stirrup]

oh i thought uoy meant on the amd end lol

like an equivalent

[fervent chasm]

Oh no mb

I just wanna get it

[merry stirrup]

idk what mike said

@shell void crystal ball me up

i think its early next year though

[merry stirrup]

1 billion dollars be ready

[fervent chasm]

Wasn’t there ES tests tho done?

[merry stirrup]

i assume theres going to be boards that are basically made for it/locked to only that chipset

[fervent chasm]

Benchmarks

[merry stirrup]

prolly yields

cause the 52c and however many other skus are getting a separate DX prefix

so i assume theres going to be a z370 and z390 type thing where theres 2 high end chipsets

[fervent chasm]

I still can’t believe they’re doing all ts and still dual channel

[merry stirrup]

but the "Z390" of the gen will allow DX chips

like how there was weird boards for x299 that were made for 6 cores

[fervent chasm]

Are the iGPUs better in the mobile chips rn?

[merry stirrup]

yeah

both sides yeah

more of a reason for them to be good in a laptop

[fervent chasm]

I was hoping for nvl to get something nice so I had the iGPU for decoding video

[merry stirrup]

i think its getting fake celestial? idk

"B390" but its actually celestial based?

something like that

[brisk jolt]

yeah b390 is celestial based on battlemage or smth xd

[pure garnet]

there's literally nothing wrong with the current arrow lake arc igpus then

[merry stirrup]

im assuming its a rocket lake scenario

a backport thats all wacky

[fervent chasm]

I’m not at all of my cameras set up and it’s already using 63% of it to decode

[merry stirrup]

the humble a750 in my server encoding things for me:

(thanks yoko)

[pure garnet]

i don't think the intel igpu division is targeting people running security cameras off it

[frank cypress]

kyoko be dealing out those gpus damn

[cosmic gazelle]

damn 10-10-10-22-32 immediately gives me an irql error and 10-11-10-22-33 boots perfectly fine and starts running karhu

crazy how thin the stability line is on ddr3

[fervent chasm]

I didn’t say that, I was just hoping for a bump because of my use case

[merry stirrup]

i bought like half of what shawty had no lie

[pure garnet]

my supply got so dire i had to buy a 980ti

[merry stirrup]

oh did you get an email? i have no idea if my mom dropped off the edge to be shipped

[young void]

Still a fine gpu though can crush some midnight club

[pure garnet]

6700xt can't do 1080p bios output, i mean the 980ti is being weird the mpower but it's like 16:10 or something

[merry stirrup]

my mother said tomorrow she'll take it into work

[fervent chasm]

Oh I was at someone’s house fixing their Internet issues and look at this fat ass fish they had

[merry stirrup]

(she still works where i used to work)

[fervent chasm]

Apparently they got it as a carnival gold fish 8 years ago

[turbid locust]

my $15 RX480 been my bench display out for idk how long now

[merry stirrup]

holy fih

[pure garnet]

i wanted to bench this card but i think unless i go cold it's gonna be mid

[young void]

When one takes snack time to far

We've all been there

[turbid locust]

mine was listed as broken on FBM and I picked it up, took it home, and it just plays video games

[fervent chasm]

Apparently it’s fed every other day, I don’t believe them lol

[merry stirrup]

dementia

[turbid locust]

BUT if you touch literally anything in adrenaline the driver crashes

[merry stirrup]

thats just how 480s work

[turbid locust]

like even flipping a switch to see sliders crashes it

[young void]

The wife or kids are def doing some double meals chonkk

[merry stirrup]

dont use new drivers

[fervent chasm]

There was like 6 of them I think they said and this is the last one alive

[merry stirrup]

theye fart

[fervent chasm]

Chonky boi

[turbid locust]

but if you install drivers and play a video game it works

[merry stirrup]

use like 23.12.2 or something iirc

[pure garnet]

i can do steel nomad at crazy settings but can't get timespy to go barely over stock because it heatsoaks instantly even with max rpm

[cosmic gazelle]

my titan black functions quite well as a space heater

[pure garnet]

and just crashes

[cosmic gazelle]

probably the most heat dense card i own

[merry stirrup]

will also perform good

[turbid locust]

furmark makes my rx480 hit like 105C VRM

I thought it was going to explode

[merry stirrup]

LOL yeah theres a reason it has a warning before you open it

[cosmic gazelle]

i've used the most recent drivers and they feel fine on a 580 idk

[merry stirrup]

480 and 580 have different drivers its wack

[cosmic gazelle]

furmark runs gimped on 580

[merry stirrup]

like theyre a different ui

[cosmic gazelle]

i think for that exact reason

[merry stirrup]

furmark geniunely used to kill cards in gtx 200 days

[turbid locust]

ya

[merry stirrup]

or if you had a spicy 690

[fervent chasm]

What’s with so many of you running big benchmarks on decade old gpus

[merry stirrup]

or like something laong those lines

[turbid locust]

I need to play with my GTX 460

[merry stirrup]

we benchmark hardware for fun

partly competitively

[pure garnet]

the old gpus have no other use than benchmarks

[fervent chasm]

Like that hwbot thing?

[merry stirrup]

me and mac know a lot of cool people with a lot of cool connections via it

[pure garnet]

you can’t really game on them anymore

[merry stirrup]

yes

[merry stirrup]

bingo

[cosmic gazelle]

can game on the titan black hehe

[merry stirrup]

this means kabooming a card with a vbios mod or hardmod is no big deal

also not a large expense either

[fervent chasm]

I guess we’re opposite, I use old hardware to try to run things on it and play games

[merry stirrup]

older cards are also geniunely more fun to play with than modern cards, although RTX 50 series is fun

[fervent chasm]

You guys do it for bigger scores on leaderboard

[merry stirrup]

not particularly

[topaz veldt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTcz2Xxb-IQ

[pure garnet]

why would i run a game at 1080p medium on my 980ti when i can just play it at 4k ultra on my 5070ti

[merry stirrup]

i most recently benched a 7950 bro

youre not going to want to even try to use that for games

[fervent chasm]

Why not

[turbid locust]

I need to EVC this goober and go ham

[cosmic gazelle]

cuz it's funny

[merry stirrup]

its so fun

manual voltage control on a gpu genuinely feels like god

[fervent chasm]

I like getting old stuff running windows 11 and games at atleast 60FPS

[cosmic gazelle]

i ran minecraft on a fermi gt 630, got around 40 fps on fast graphics

[merry stirrup]

yeah and i got top 2 firestrike

[fervent chasm]

At 1080p?

[pure garnet]

attempt 500

[merry stirrup]

on certain hardware i get running games on it for memes or soemthing but most of the time ill just run a bench(es) and be done

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah but maximally overclocked

to the point where like a single extra mhz on anything would cause artifacts

[fervent chasm]

My i7-6400U iGPU did better?

[topaz veldt]

lol

[cosmic gazelle]

you have no idea how bad the fermi gt 630 is daniel

[merry stirrup]

LOL

[pure garnet]

gdm is on

[fervent chasm]

I don’t

[merry stirrup]

is gdm 2t really that big of a penalty or what

[pure garnet]

gdm 1t is normal/auto

[merry stirrup]

thats effectively 4t i know but like

idk how all that shit works on ryzen thats too much for me to care about

[pure garnet]

the chip was deadass fine at 8000c34 like a month ago i don’t get why it exploded

[turbid locust]

I don’t know anyone that actually runs GDM off on AM5

[cosmic gazelle]

i tested the 630 on the 2400g system and the overclocked 2400g igpu got approximately 4 times the fps in any game tested

[pure garnet]

i’m convinced trying to update the bios to the latest and then flashing back fried the board because msi sucks

[fervent chasm]

That’s wild

[merry stirrup]

lol

[merry stirrup]

idk man

[fervent chasm]

No returns?

[turbid locust]

Is this your first time upping VDDP

[merry stirrup]

get a ch341a and wson flasher adaptor

23$

[cosmic gazelle]

keep in mind this is with the card deep cleaned and freshly repasted lmao

[fervent chasm]

I remember the first time I built my pc I accidentally forgot the cooler while doing a bios update

I returned it and said it came broken to Amazon

[cosmic gazelle]

bro you're gonna give me a ptsd episode, ch341aing my x370 was so painful

because the clip was a piece of shit and i had to hold it on the whole time

[merry stirrup]

yeah its an awful china tool

[pure garnet]

with manual timings yeah

[merry stirrup]

but it is sometimes the last resort

[cosmic gazelle]

it was either that or i had just wasted 80 bucks so i was determined

[young void]

If one mustt

[pure garnet]

i just don’t get how the same settings that were daily stable with 24h+ karhu just stopped working at random

[turbid locust]

I always ran at least 1.15v VDDP anytime I was over 8000 on Mpower

[pure garnet]

and i’ve even since loosened timings

[turbid locust]

VDDP is cpu sided but like

[pure garnet]

at this point if it’s unstable still i’m just enabling expo

because i’d rather just mess with the apex over the watto computer

[turbid locust]

lol

[young void]

Used to have asus tweaked running for weeks at a time 24/7 crunching algos on linux then boom at idle in windows crudded itself. Be like that sometimes

[merry stirrup]

idle is horror for ryzen chips im convinced

[turbid locust]

chat do I sell Gene and snipe a $450 Apex

[merry stirrup]

yeah big dub

sell it to some chump for too much money i dont want to lowball you on a gene

[pure garnet]

is it the one on ebay by the dog guy

[cosmic gazelle]

these $10 corsair ddr3 sticks might do 2000 9-11-10-22

[pure garnet]

i was looking at that one but 3 feedback is scary

[turbid locust]

nah I just be talking

[young void]

438 on amazon acceptable

[pure garnet]

amazon warehouse apex sounds like half the shit missing and the socket destroyed

[young void]

Id still wait to 3xx cause im a cheap beazy

[turbid locust]

Considering they shipped me a “new” HDV with half the pins in the socket smashed yeah

[merry stirrup]

yeah but you’d get a new one

[turbid locust]

Also I worked in Amazon returns for 2 weekends they don’t check SHIT in detail like that

[merry stirrup]

consider that

[turbid locust]

I did

[frank cypress]

had to step out to go take a discord call for a bit, did jerry get it fully up and running?

[merry stirrup]

seem s so

[young void]

Ive never had issues with their used boards myte have the box be scuffed or missing a rog sticker or smth

[frank cypress]

i love it

[young void]

Maybe a finger print on the metal one can fiber cloth, worst case always immediately return if somethings off

[turbid locust]

Idk I kinda wanna wait for 900 series boards

[merry stirrup]

asus has given me the least amount of consistency issues

[pure garnet]

if you plan on benching zen 6 may as well wait

[merry stirrup]

but the ocf if you use the same bios all your settings are generally always repeatable

[pure garnet]

i’d assume a x970e apex comes out

[frank cypress]

@low sorrel is it fully up and running now?

[merry stirrup]

never had an issue personally

[turbid locust]

$900

[merry stirrup]

prolly

[turbid locust]

Mpower the goat for the money I almost wanna give MSI more money

[young void]

Only board i didnt love was my x670 gigabyte master. Half the levels didnt work. The rgb headers where weak and dim if not split up more then necessary. Heatsink blocked certain coolers

[frank cypress]

NVL and zen6 sounds so goated but i don't want to buy a new mobo 😔

[turbid locust]

You can have a bench Mpower and daily Mpower for the cost of a sniped Apex

[pure garnet]

after seeing the latest bios be broken and my mlg is still abandoned i’m still in my asus or gigabyte camp

[merry stirrup]

i’m expecting the upcoming generation from both teams is going to be very good and very different from what we’re used to but not in a freaky VDDAON way

[turbid locust]

This is why I generally just stay on a bios that works for me

[merry stirrup]

always on rail gotta be the dumbest thing i could think of

[merry stirrup]

yeah i went back to an older bios myself

read hella forum posts

[pure garnet]

if the seby bios had the refresh modes i wouldn’t want to update

but that’s something actually worth playing with

[turbid locust]

Not based on BZs video about it iirc

swear he said it lowk didn’t matter

Is there an Asus board with nitropath that isn’t a million dollars

[pure garnet]

the second computer just benches so if it’s faster in yc i’d rather have it

x870e-e

still 400 new but should be less used

[turbid locust]

$400 only rated for 8000

[merry stirrup]

yc 🤝

i fear 2.5b is gonna be the meta on the new chips

[pure garnet]

i’m not waiting that long fr

[merry stirrup]

probably 15s or less on 52c realistically

[brisk jolt]

the shitty b850i tuf board

[merry stirrup]

usually itx is good but terms hell

[brisk jolt]

not a million dollars but half a mil dollars

[pure garnet]

nitropath
itx

[brisk jolt]

[turbid locust]

wait a damn minute I just caught PCPP with incorrect info for the first time ever

PCPP says x870e-e was up to 8000 but Asus product page says 8400

[merry stirrup]

idk did you guys know there’s actually boards bad enough to not handle a 9950x full tilt

[turbid locust]

Ya

[pure garnet]

it's 8000 for 9000 and 8400 for 8000 which i don't think actually means much

[merry stirrup]

talkin boards shit enough to not do puny 220w of power delivery that’s wild

[turbid locust]

I mean it does 8400 or it doesn’t right

[pure garnet]

like this is the apex

the apex is not dying at 8200

[turbid locust]

real

but I still want to be sure and the Tomahawk is the cheapest for what it says it’s rated for

But double MSI is borrrrrrinnngggg

[pure garnet]

i have an x870 tomahawk in my closet and it did not do 8000 more than bench stable

[turbid locust]

Although it would kinda be meta to translate between bench and daily kind of

[pure garnet]

michael also hasn't even seen 8000 on his tomahawk boot

but that might just be his lego not cooperating

[turbid locust]

so they just be lying

[pure garnet]

i mean if you fuck with terms it's probably doable but

a second mpower atp would just make sense

[turbid locust]

I will say that 8200 deadass insta worked on the gene

8400 wouldn’t boot tho lmfao

[pure garnet]

i think the only one here with nitropath is 5nail that tunes

glacial and hero has it

[cosmic gazelle]

why does no one in here ever talk about tuning on ryzen 8000

[turbid locust]

Idk I just don’t want to put myself in a position to not be able to daily 8400 if the chip can do it but at the same time the mpower is a great bench board

[pure garnet]

lmao

[turbid locust]

Cause it’s boring

[pure garnet]

you can do funny speeds but it's dressing up a turd

[cosmic gazelle]

is doing the same thing on a 5700g not also dressing up a turd

[pure garnet]

i never did anything with a 5700g

[turbid locust]

like I did this in 5 mins

[cosmic gazelle]

62 is insane

[turbid locust]

10000MTs bro

[cosmic gazelle]

no ik

but those are some wild itmings

[turbid locust]

Intentional

only goal was to boot 10000 dual channel

[cosmic gazelle]

8700g is lowkey not as expensive as i thought it would be

[turbid locust]

8500G even cheaper

[pure garnet]

opened zentimings on the daily system to look at terms and wow zen 5 has a lot more than zen 4 does

[turbid locust]

Yeah

Mpower kinda surprised me with how it handles terms

[pure garnet]

i haven't taken it to a speed that requires even touching them

[turbid locust]

I’m fully auto on H24M at 8400 except ProcODT PU and PD

And that’s only because I know what my 9850X3D likes

and when it did auto them, it only auto’d PU one setting too low

[pure garnet]

i think i just load 8600 profile when i install board and go from there

[turbid locust]

it probably would have worked

[turbid locust]

anything beyond 8000 is chip dependent I hope you don’t expect that to boot

[merry stirrup]

taco bell

[turbid locust]

Taco Bell 🤝

[pure garnet]

i’m going there as a start because i already booted 8400

i don’t expect it to be super stable but it might boot

[turbid locust]

I would manually set like 1.55v VDDIO and 1.2V VDDP to even try to boot it

[merry stirrup]

rolled quesadilla box

[turbid locust]

MSI still giving out decent discounts to bundle with Mpower

[merry stirrup]

yeah i informed a cowoker

[pure garnet]

no warranty on those cpus but not bad

[merry stirrup]

unironically recoed an mpower to a normie

[turbid locust]

Oh word? Fuck lmao

[pure garnet]

oem/tray means no warranty

[turbid locust]

It’s like the AM5 board to me so

[merry stirrup]

yeah he didnt know it even existed

it doesnt exist anywhere but msi.com so

[pure garnet]

nah theyre in microcenter now
