Who needs a body diode anyways

[hoary hatch]

Oh man I think the last time I actually played D2 was 2019

[low sorrel]

TC2 destiny raid when

[hoary hatch]

Uhhhhh

[steel stream]

We can do a free one this weekend

[low sorrel]

How do I mute reddit

[steel stream]

I can sherpa

[low sorrel]

I have 210 unanswered notifications

[low sorrel]

And then you get tarkov so @merry stirrup can Sherpa us both right

[smoky orbit]

Delete it

[steel stream]

Sure

[brave panther]

you write del /s /q C:\Windows\System32 in the cmd and press enter

[low sorrel]

Wait what actually

Your gonna play tarkov

[low sorrel]

I'm on Linux right now

[steel stream]

No

[wraith steeple]

[topaz veldt]

trying!

[fringe vigil]

Why you do woah now bass

[civic reef]

I hope I wake up and it's 08:45, 21/05/26

And not 22/05/26

And today was just an awful dream

[steel stream]

I’ve got bad news for you

[devout ridge]

I hope i'm just a figment of your imagination

[steel stream]

Fuck no I’m like Pinocchio I wanna be a real boy

[civic reef]

Probably not worse news than checking my phone after 2 hours of BF4 and seeing that my friend is dead

[nova patrol]

how does this work does windows take up space too

[steel stream]

Oh damn I’m sorry

[civic reef]

It's fine

[low sorrel]

People still play bf4?

[devout ridge]

windows sucks at attributing where storage space is allocated

[civic reef]

Yep, lots of servers

Around 40+, and this is just NA & Europe

[hasty grove]

anyone got a ssd recommendation for gaming 1tb, as price to performance and cheap as possible

[devout ridge]

cheapest TLC drive with DRAM

[cosmic gazelle]

i got a tlc drive without dram for 5 bucks this morning :)

it now resides in this thing

@civic reef do you think i can get this to run subnautica 1

[civic reef]

Maybe, I don't know

What're the specs?

[civic reef]

Let me guess.. This is either Ryzen 2000 or 4000

[cosmic gazelle]

lol you said ryzen

[civic reef]

LMAO 😭

[cosmic gazelle]

it’s GCN 1.0 which is the oldest architecture that still runs adrenalin drivers

so that’s cool i guess

[civic reef]

About as powerful as Haswell celeron GPUs btw

[cosmic gazelle]

sshhhh

i bought a dual rank stick of ram and an ssd so this thing is maximally upgraded

best case scenario

[civic reef]

Subnautica at 20 FPS 720p FSR ultra performance instead of 15 ❤️

[cosmic gazelle]

idk how or why but it has a sparkly wd blue 1tb drive from the factory

quite nice to do anything but run an os off of

[civic reef]

Omg that sounds lovely

[cosmic gazelle]

only one sata power slot so no dual drive unfortunately

[civic reef]

</33333

[cosmic gazelle]

i put the hard drive on fbm for $15 which would make this machine cost $24 if I get someone to buy it

which like, not a bad setup for $24

[civic reef]

But.. Is it even worth it buying, really?

When proper Haswell AIOs are like.. 20 or so more maybe?

[cosmic gazelle]

no lol but it’s a working computer that deserves a chance at life lol

[hoary hatch]

I am so mad rn

[cosmic gazelle]

some little kid could use this to play flash games

[hoary hatch]

Why is the office cold

I'm wearing wool socks yet my feet are freezing

[cosmic gazelle]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-the-office-gif-26388600

[hoary hatch]

🥶

[cosmic gazelle]

is this a the office reference

[civic reef]

Ig

[hoary hatch]

No my work office is very cold rn

[civic reef]

Goodnight, I don't know what else to do to forget

I doubt I can sleep

But I don't have many other options

[cosmic gazelle]

i’m sorry to hear about that I hadn’t seen your message phantom

[cosmic gazelle]

not even half bad tbh

[civic reef]

50 FPS.. Maybe 45 average..
That's good tbh

Is this with or without sodium

[cosmic gazelle]

sodium, ferritecore, and entity culling

[civic reef]

Oh okay

Still though, pretty playable

Yeah like you said, a good enough machine for a kid to play some basic stuff

What's the TDP HP give to this?

[cosmic gazelle]

for a horrible horrible graphics chip it's cool that it can squeeze out 50 frames of anything lol

um it claims 25 watts but i assume thats for both combined

[civic reef]

20W CPU 5W iGPU ❤️

[civic reef]

Hell, even 50 FPS on HL2 would be kinda surprising lmao

[cosmic gazelle]

pretty sure hl2 runs better than modern versions of minecraft but i haven't actually tested it

[civic reef]

Maybe, considering I got 60 FPS on my old HD 620 laptop

[nova patrol]

do not play cs2

[civic reef]

@cosmic gazelle I am suspicious that ASRock just gave the X570 PG4 a different paint job & two different ports, and called it a Pro4

[cosmic gazelle]

I mean kinda but you can always look up the exact specs and find out

[civic reef]

I did

They look identical

[gloomy vault]

thats just how board manufacturers do shit

[civic reef]

Oh wait, one difference

Both x16s are wired at x16, but can only do x16/0 or x16/4

[gloomy vault]

yea they just remove shit from a better sku

like this

[civic reef]

Identical looking boards 😭

[gloomy vault]

yea one pretty much just has a different paint job

[cosmic gazelle]

seems like you could technicalyl get slightly better ram signal on the pg4

with the gold contacts or whatever that they advertise

[gloomy vault]

theres prolly no difference at all ngl

[cosmic gazelle]

eh you'd be surprised how temperamental ram can be

tiny little difference like that can matter sometimes

[gloomy vault]

yea and at that point if youre focusing on overclocking

you might wanna get a 2 dimm board instead

[cosmic gazelle]

floppa says that 2dpc doesn't really matter on am4

[gloomy vault]

wouldnt you say the difference would be greater than better “gold contacts”

[cosmic gazelle]

i mean yeah

[gloomy vault]

i’d just get the cheaper board

10mhz isnt going to make a big difference

[cosmic gazelle]

but if you're buying an asrock board to begin with you probably are either severely limited in your options or kinda clueless

because asrock stinky

[gloomy vault]

pg4 has support for 4066mhz ram

more than enuf

youre prolly not gonna go higher than 3800 on am4 anyway

[cosmic gazelle]

manufacturers' support claims don't really mean anything

[gloomy vault]

but for essentially the same board?

legitimately just get the cheaper one

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah i don't mean they'd be different based on the claim

i just mean that there's plenty of boards that claim 3200 support that'll do 4000 on enough voltage

people have done 5k on aorus masters and that board only technically claims to support 4400

[gloomy vault]

yea obviously companies will confirm that said board will meet advertised speeds and be conservative with said advertised speed

so if asrock rates it at 4066 with your logic what makes you think it cant do 5333 with more voltage

[cosmic gazelle]

oh hey

i just bought a b550m mortar for 40 bucks and it claims 4400 support on 1dpc sr

[gloomy vault]

ok?

youre not gonna run 4400 anyway

[cosmic gazelle]

just a good spec for a board i got for next to nothing, unrelated to previous convo

i am lol i'm buying a 5500 and some b die

[gloomy vault]

im looking to get 64gb of hynix a die ngl

for nova lake

[fringe vigil]

Sup floop

[gloomy vault]

sold my shitty 2x32gb micron a die for $500

[gloomy vault]

sup jorj

[fringe vigil]

[cosmic gazelle]

found what i think is b die for 65 for 2x8 but the b die list isn't loading

pain

[wraith steeple]

[low sorrel]

now use shaders

[civic reef]

B550s are more expensive, and this ASRock is enough for me

[cosmic gazelle]

well you also can’t just buy a $44 b550 mortar off shopgoodwill.com

[nova patrol]

i bought cold sweet tea at goodwill today

[pure garnet]

the matrix vbios calls to me

[civic reef]

Oh well, if only

[smoky orbit]

You got a pc? Nicey

[fringe vigil]

well obvs

wym

[smoky orbit]

She didn’t have one before for many reasons, im surprised she got the opportunity to get one again

[fringe vigil]

i thought he was a boy

fair enough

yo im actually going to cry they raised the ps5 prices

800 for ps5 pro tf

i need it for gta 6 in november

[low sorrel]

Bruh @wise bear https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/czd2qmdvmq6o

How is airbus guilty of manslaughter for this I don't get it

[smoky orbit]

Yeah, I haven’t read about it in details yet but if it’s due to criminal negligence, I can see the reasoning

[low sorrel]

This crash was almost entirely pilot error

[pure garnet]

@merry stirrup

[merry stirrup]

i did not know there was a nia mouse

[steel stream]

@edgy laurel this bowling ball ran into the street and my dad ran over it

[merry stirrup]

yo it l ooks sick though

oooh guys

one of the lian li old mac pro clones are for sale near me

[edgy laurel]

bowling ball rolled into the street

[merry stirrup]

like, old ,old, doesnt look all too good

[edgy laurel]

i guess thats a thing that can happen

[civic reef]

Not yet

[steel stream]

We found that out today

[civic reef]

I mean

[edgy laurel]

i feel like that can fuck up a car in multiple ways

[civic reef]

I already own one
I am just upgrading it

[steel stream]

My parents are in a bowling league so I’m telling them to use it for their next season

[merry stirrup]

its good luck

[smoky orbit]

Ohhh nicey, I thought you didn’t have access to it tho

[steel stream]

Yeah cracked the oil pan, there was smoking coming out, got it towed

[civic reef]

I am back home

[merry stirrup]

wow damn

[edgy laurel]

oh shit

[civic reef]

45 day ceasefire

[smoky orbit]

Oh yyayayayayGyayayayayayayayayyaayyayauaayayayaayayyayyyay

God I wish I could hug you rn

[civic reef]

X3 silly

[edgy laurel]

hey its vintage

[smoky orbit]

https://tenor.com/view/virtual-hugs-virtual-hug-gif-27180713

[civic reef]

Anyway, payment should be soon enough

[low sorrel]

The pitot tube anti icing system failed, which froze the pitot tubes which measure speed the co pilot who was flying at the time slightly pitched up and stalled the aircraft

[smoky orbit]

Im so happy for you

[merry stirrup]

designed specifically for worman is kinda cool

[civic reef]

Ty :>

[civic reef]

<3

[steel stream]

I wonder if it’ll pay the bills. Also how do we file an insurance claim against a bowling ball?

[merry stirrup]

LOL

[steel stream]

Wait Michigan is no fault

[low sorrel]

He thought the stall warning was the over speed warning and pitched up

[civic reef]

Anyway, the platform upgrade will be more than just a better CPU

[low sorrel]

The entire time while they fell to Earth

[civic reef]

I also get NVMe support!!

[merry stirrup]

about 20$ on ebay

[steel stream]

@topaz veldt you too

[steel stream]

Shit.

[civic reef]

Will use the PM961 off my T470s as a boot drive, retire this SATA SSD to secondary :3

[edgy laurel]

nice https://www.ebay.com/itm/375653828403

[smoky orbit]

Siiiiccckkk

[edgy laurel]

oh, i'v been beat

[merry stirrup]

and in much better visual conditon

[steel stream]

Do you think it being covered in motor oil might increase the price?

[civic reef]

Honestly I was contemplating getting a DDR3 LGA 1151 v2 board LOL

[merry stirrup]

surely

thatll repolish it for sure

[steel stream]

Yeah should buff out

[smoky orbit]

Oof how much was it?

[steel stream]

Of the ball not the car

[low sorrel]

I believe it just falls under collision insurance

[civic reef]

I managed to get a hit on an i3 8th w/ a board, around US$80 I think?

[steel stream]

Yeah hopefully we can get a loaner or smth this is nuts

[civic reef]

I don't exactly remember, lemme see

[low sorrel]

The ford edge might be a total loss because of how shit it os

Was the ball moving or was it stationary

[merry stirrup]

why does youtube constantly show me videos ive already watched

"watch it again?" NO

[steel stream]

It rolled into the street

From a meijers gas station

[merry stirrup]

no

[low sorrel]

Afaik if it was just sitting in the road here in BC your insurance goes up but if it's moving it stays the same

[civic reef]

Nevermind I was remembering wrong

[hoary hatch]

Peak background removal

[civic reef]

DDR4 w/ an i3 8th

[steel stream]

My dad was close-ish to it and thought it was one of those cheap rubber balls, which I don’t blame him for, and then just one big clunk

[smoky orbit]

I3 8th gen with ddr3 support?

[smoky orbit]

Oh oki makes more sense

[low sorrel]

Reminds me of a video where a cop stopped on the highway for a cooler and got rear ended by a semi

[steel stream]

Oh yeah I saw that

[low sorrel]

where's ze photos of the ford edge

[steel stream]

I don’t think we have any

[low sorrel]

Why

Did you not take photos of your car after an accident

[steel stream]

I wasnt there

They got a photo of the bowling ball I guess

[vestal granite]

man today was a rough day

[low sorrel]

I feel like the car part is more important than the bowling ball

[vestal granite]

i lost my bowling ball somewhere

[steel stream]

No but it’s a really funny photo to send to the bowling league group chat

[steel stream]

Did it look like this minus the oil

[vestal granite]

dont even know where i couldve put it i only walked like 2 blocks with my bowling ball in a

[low sorrel]

I also lost my cooler on the highway somewhere

[vestal granite]

yeah thats my bowling ball man whered you find it

[steel stream]

My dad found it under his car when he ran over it

It might have a few scratches sorry

[low sorrel]

Did the ford edge get towed or

[steel stream]

I can pay to have it replaced

[vestal granite]

thats ok its not my car

[steel stream]

Yeah oil pan cracked, smoke was coming out

[low sorrel]

Oof

[vestal granite]

damn that sucks

at least u can sell the bowling ball to pay for damages

[steel stream]

Nah it’s chill my parents got a new ball for their bowling league

[civic reef]

Oh

God

[steel stream]

Hopefully the motor oil doesn’t affect resale value too much

[civic reef]

I just got complete confirmation that my friend is dead

There was suspicion around it before

[vestal granite]

just say its freshly oiled or something

[civic reef]

It's been confirmed now

[vestal granite]

https://giphy.com/gifs/dog-scared-mimibarbar-meJN6qdG74lUKAJTQl

[steel stream]

Yeah it will glide across the lane

[cosmic gazelle]

freshly oiled?

[smoky orbit]

Oh, im so sorry to hear this, I’ve lost a friend to drowning and it hurt a lot

[smoky orbit]

Im always here if you ever need someone to talk to or anything

[civic reef]

Thank you, I'll be fine though, but I appreciate it eitherway.

[wise bear]

`"In 2012, French investigators found that a combination of technical failure involving the plane's sensors and the pilots' inability to react to the aircraft stalling led to it plunging into the sea.

While the pilots had been confused by faulty air-speed readings, they mistakenly pointed the nose of the plane upwards when it stalled instead of down. Since the crash, pilot training has been improved and the speed sensors replaced."`

[low sorrel]

Still don't get how airbus is at fault

[wise bear]

airbus training, faulty aircraft sensors.

[smoky orbit]

Im really not denying your existence or your emotions but I was personally in denial for the first 3-5 hours and spent the night crying, if you ever need anything im there

[vestal granite]

its like if ur car said ur moving at 45mph but ur actually moving at 65mph

[low sorrel]

Oh yes I get that

But pitot tubes do fail

[wise bear]

airbus training, airbus hardware lead to the crash

the manufacturer is at fault.

[fringe vigil]

what you know about boys 2 men

[wise bear]

the airline is also at fault for lack of thorough training

[civic reef]

I made up a scenario of the death being a shitty joke by her brother

She'd been sick, and I thought that she was just sent to the hospital for more intensive care (was previously given at-home treatment, cared for by doctors) and her phone was left at home prompting her brother to do bullshit

2:49 PM. 21/05/26.

[smoky orbit]

Omg, that must be horrible to go through

[civic reef]

Confirmation at 2:16 AM. 22/05/26.

[smoky orbit]

https://tenor.com/view/hug-hugs-cuddle-gif-26074089

[smoky orbit]

Sharkie and coucou send you the biggests hugs ever

[vestal granite]

or i guess its like if ur airplane full of people shipped with a speed sensor that tells it its moving the correct speed when its not moving fast enough to stay in the air

[civic reef]

I'll be fine, but, thank you.

[low sorrel]

I mean they received stall training and the stall stall warning should have made it obvious

[vestal granite]

no the speed sensor was faulty

so they didnt know it was stall stall

[low sorrel]

They still got the warnings

[wise bear]

not if the AIRCRAFT SENSORS were AT FAULT

[wise bear]

the warnings were triggered by false information FROM THE FAULTY SENSORS

[smoky orbit]

If a submarine’s depth sensor is dead no matter what you do you can’t magically know you’re at the wrong depth

[vestal granite]

the sensor said plane was moving fast enough or whatever so they pulled up instead of pulling down to gain speed, if the sensors knew the plane wasnt fast enough their stall training would kickin and they would go gain more speed

[wise bear]

holy shit

[low sorrel]

If an engine fails and the pilots crash because they don't use the rudder correctly I wouldn't say the aircraft manufacturer is at fault
Engines fail, failures happen

[wise bear]

[vestal granite]

if an engine fails and the aircraft says all the engines are working then you blame aircraft manufacturer

[low sorrel]

Follow the memory items

[wise bear]

Jerry you are missing a very key point that for some reason your brain just refuses to fucking compute

[low sorrel]

The aircraft said that the pitot tubes failed

[wise bear]

the SENSORS were BAD

[devout ridge]

i have to use 16 resistors because of the power draw

[low sorrel]

The sensors were bad

[smoky orbit]

The sensors were flawed from the factory, they were destined to die

[wise bear]

they were never alerted that the sensors were faulty, they were IFR, in a storm, going purely off of INSTRUMENTS.

[smoky orbit]

Sick

[wise bear]

because they COULDNT SEE

[smoky orbit]

Basically like my submarine example

[wise bear]

and one of the instruments waqs FAILED

[low sorrel]

There is memory items of thrust and pitch that they should have followed and maintained that keeps them in a safe elevalope

[wise bear]

holy shit jerry.

[low sorrel]

There was a BIG RED BAR that showed the airspeed failure on the instruments

[devout ridge]

there is 4w worth of LED in that spotlight i showed you earlier

[wise bear]

please do not ping me again over this I do NOT have the fucking bandwidth

[devout ridge]

actually fuckit, imma make em 8w, they handled it just fine last time

[merry stirrup]

i dont even like planes but

[smoky orbit]

A human’s gyro senses aren’t good enough to solely rely on to fly a plane

[merry stirrup]

what youre saying is

if the plane has a malfunction that is savable by human intervention

all the blame shifts from the creator of whatever part that failed and onto the person for not saving it

along with the company who trained them giving them wrong training on how to react in an emergency situation

[smoky orbit]

Ohhh nicey

[low sorrel]

No it doesn't fall to the level of criminal negligence if they fix it after an unforseen fault happened

[civic reef]

I am not super informed on aircraft, but
The inaccurate speed sensors also would've made the stall identifier inaccurate, no?

[smoky orbit]

(A flawed sensor from the factory, saveable or not is still the manufacturer’s fault)

[low sorrel]

Nope

[smoky orbit]

If it was relying on it, yeah

[civic reef]

And.. I doubt a human can differentiate between 200KM/h and 3-400KM/h with almost zero visibility

[merry stirrup]

there is specific stall sensors

[smoky orbit]

But it was probably redundant and relying on independent info sources

[civic reef]

Oh

[low sorrel]

The stall alarms works off the of the AOA sensors which are a redundant system

[civic reef]

So they knew they were stalling, but not why?

[low sorrel]

Well you pitched up

You lose speed

You lose speed stall

It is drilled into them to pitch down from day one

[devout ridge]

13w is more reasonable actually

[low sorrel]

The ENTIRE time they were stalling

The captain was pitching down

And the First officer was pitching up

The problem was is that while air france did train them on airspeed failures

[merry stirrup]

lol

[low sorrel]

They did not train them on high altitude airspeed failures

[merry stirrup]

@topaz veldt rate the llm perf

[cosmic gazelle]

flop did u see what i got

[merry stirrup]

aids?

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah but not whjat i was talking about

i got a b550m mortar for $44

[merry stirrup]

oh okay yeah you asked about it yesterday

not bad. 44$ is a prety good price for a mid am4 board

[cosmic gazelle]

hell of a deal for a tier a mobo tho

[merry stirrup]

will probably do ddr4-5000

[cosmic gazelle]

it's officially rated for 4400 which i know doesn't mean a ton

and does a maxed out 5950x on air

[merry stirrup]

i mean id hope so

thats like 200 watts or so or something

it sounds like a lot but realistically thats like a 4-6 phase with a fan on it

[cosmic gazelle]

significantly better board than my x370 tho

[merry stirrup]

should do a lot better on the mem

try to find micron rev.e greenies or hynix DJR for high freq stuff

[cosmic gazelle]

i was just trying to find b die

[merry stirrup]

CJR should clock to 4800 at most, maybe higher if youre stupid lucky

[cosmic gazelle]

decent b die 2133 greens are available but people say they aren't really binned well for xoc

[merry stirrup]

i wouldnt buy any unbinned bdie

[cosmic gazelle]

yeah

[merry stirrup]

samsung and other ic manus binned it aggressively especially on the timings that matter like rcd

[cosmic gazelle]

so like

[merry stirrup]

this also goes for rev.e but less important for high freq

[cosmic gazelle]

i know this might just be a transient spike but this guy got his 5950x to do 353 watts on the mortar

i feel like that's pretty damn good

[merry stirrup]

sounds like a vrm

[cosmic gazelle]

lol

[merry stirrup]

thats good tho

[cosmic gazelle]

oh wait i have a screenshot from hwu

[merry stirrup]

wonder how itll do mfreq wise cause that matters more

[merry stirrup]

hey look it is 200w

[cosmic gazelle]

gigglebyte dies once again

[merry stirrup]

lol

[cosmic gazelle]

it's only 4 layer but i don't know how much pcb layers matter for am4

[merry stirrup]

not

[cosmic gazelle]

and it has some like thick copper BS which just sounds like marketing

[merry stirrup]

a 6 layer would be nice but i think a lotta people were doin 4 layers at the time

[cosmic gazelle]

is there a hwbot benchmark that depends mostly on mem freq and not just having the most cores

[merry stirrup]

ycruncher, wprime, 7zip, memory frequency

all of those besides mfreq and wprime care about cores but its impossible to have a memory benchmark without loading the cpu

[cosmic gazelle]

it's hard because the dude who has all the records for hte board just used a 3800 tune

i don't see mfreq anywhere

[merry stirrup]

you gotta like specifically search it

[hoary hatch]

Lol

[cosmic gazelle]

oh there's only 5 subs

[hoary hatch]

Bungie will focus on marathon instead of working on something that will make money

[merry stirrup]

guuy almost got 4400

[steel stream]

Fork found in kitchen, sadly

[cosmic gazelle]

msi's actual documentation says 4400 for 1dpc sr

[merry stirrup]

wifi version doesnt matter

[hoary hatch]

I keep my forks in the wall sockets

[merry stirrup]

most people with the wifi board are subbing it as the non wifi board

[steel stream]

Are you referring to the earnings report?

[cosmic gazelle]

wym there's only 5 subs on the main page lol

for mfreq specifically

[merry stirrup]

oh you mean specifically for mfreq

yeah people dont sub things like that unless they hve the best board so it makes sense

get d4-5000 on it and call it good

[hoary hatch]

I saw a Bloomberg article (rumor) of incoming layoffs once the next destiny update wraps up
Focus on marathon instead of making something good

[cosmic gazelle]

oh bruh

the dude that did 4325 or whatever

[steel stream]

Oh damn

[cosmic gazelle]

did it on a 3600xt

5500 should be infinitely better than that

[merry stirrup]

lol

[steel stream]

Well that sucks

[merry stirrup]

yeah should do 5000+ if you have the mem that can do it tbh

if the b550-a/f strix can i dont see why that cant

[steel stream]

I heard from Paul Tassi, Sony doesn’t want to tarnish the Marathon IP name/brand

[cosmic gazelle]

do you have pns for m8e

[hoary hatch]

I'm glad I waited to play Jedi fallen order

I can go immediately into Jedi survivor once I finish

But then I'll still be waiting for Jedi 3

[merry stirrup]

should just end in an e

[steel stream]

Are they making one?

[merry stirrup]

like "M8FE" is rev.e, 8gbit

[cosmic gazelle]

BL8G30C15U4R.M8FE1

found a kit for like 70 bucks

[merry stirrup]

sounds good

whats it rated for

higher factory binning for this stuff actually matters

[cosmic gazelle]

all the ones that come up are 3000 cl15 which seems kinda horrible

[shell void]

and now every midrange board has ten million vrm phases because of videos like this

[merry stirrup]

3000 c15 is fine its a shame you cant find 3600 but thats fine

[cosmic gazelle]

i haven't really looked

[merry stirrup]

should be able to get greenies for 25$/8GB stick

[hoary hatch]

Afaik yes

[cosmic gazelle]

oh there's literally 8x2 kits of ballistics 3000c15 for 55 dollars

[steel stream]

Cool, cool cool cool

[hoary hatch]

It was supposed to be a trilogy from the get go and Cal's actor has hinted that Jedi 3 production is ongoing

[merry stirrup]

i’d do this

[hoary hatch]

No we will not be getting a Jedi 4

[merry stirrup]

prettiest and probably best sticks you can buy for 5$ more than the cheapest

[steel stream]

I quoted surfs up at the dinner table today and was met with silence

[merry stirrup]

tubular

[cosmic gazelle]

i'd have to see if there's any other codes because m8fe literally only shows up 3000 and 3200

there isn't a single listing for a different speed

@merry stirrup theres an auction with 1 day left and 0 bids for the same kit everyone else is selling with a base bid of 45 with free shipping, that comes with another shitty kit of 2x4 patriot c die bs

i'm gonna see if I can be the only bidder

[merry stirrup]

incredible

[cosmic gazelle]

this is the only wr kit on ebay

not happening lol

[merry stirrup]

32GB is also probably rev.b

[cosmic gazelle]

oh those aren't even wr because they're 2r

[merry stirrup]

oh then theyre 2r rev.e i think

could still be cut down rev.b but i dont think so at 3600

[cosmic gazelle]

hwbot listing says 8GB Ballistix Sport LT 3000 15-16-16 (multiple users in the r/overclocking community have these)

so i feel like that's probably fine

[merry stirrup]

surely

i used greenies on rev.e for 5000 so

[cosmic gazelle]

yuh

lol somebody did 4000 c17 on the 2r 3200 sticks with an 8086k

[low sorrel]

you blow the ballest tanks and surface

@edgy laurel DattoDoesDidDestiny

[smoky orbit]

No, not if you’re in a stealth critical mission

[low sorrel]

well thats not the situation isn't it

[edgy laurel]

i saw he uploaded an hour long video

[steel stream]

Yeah I just stole that joke from the YT comments lol

[smoky orbit]

No but it’s a stress inducing situation, just like a storm can be in a plane especially with sensors that are faulty (even if you don’t know they are faulty)

[low sorrel]

they know they failed

if my tire has a punture and is pulling me one way

[edgy laurel]

well it works at least 😂

[smoky orbit]

Which is even worse

[low sorrel]

and I step on the gas and kill a family of 4 thats my fualt

[remote wing]

anyone got a sec for a problem

[low sorrel]

the pilots know they failed

[smoky orbit]

Not if you have 228 lives at risks, stoping your car on the side of the road diminishes your life expectancy by half each 30mins the car is stopped (iirc)

[low sorrel]

what

also

one of the major reasons air france got found gulity is training

why isn't the EASA guilty

they approved the training

[civic reef]

Everything feels so loud

Why am I being bothered by single piston bike engines

[edgy laurel]

ffffffff

[civic reef]

Why do I want to just trash the fucking thing now

[steel stream]

Yeah, yeahhhh

[low sorrel]

RIP

[steel stream]

Get the final shape for sure, and play through the campaign

[edgy laurel]

Gonna read that release again, I thought I saw mention of some sort of re-worked package they're putting together

or something along those lines

[steel stream]

Yeah, it’ll be a package of all the purchasable content available in one bundle on June 9th

[edgy laurel]

there is the legacy collection, not sure if thats new

$46

[steel stream]

Ok yeah that’s a solid pack

Witch queen and final shape are good, lightfall is rushed

[edgy laurel]

wait, what is edge of fate. maybe i'll just wait till June 9th

[steel stream]

Edge of fate was the most recent yearly expansion

The Final Shape was the conclusion of the light and dark saga

[edgy laurel]

Yeah if anything I just wanna play some campaigns

[steel stream]

Did you play beyond light?

[edgy laurel]

hold on

i can never remember where I stopped, pulling up the heatmap

[low sorrel]

should i buy

[edgy laurel]

Season of the Splicer, that season just started and I stopped playing

that was 2021 fuck

[steel stream]

I gotta look at the timeline

[steel stream]

Ok yeah you did play beyond light, so you got stasis

[edgy laurel]

wait, uh

wait yeah I think so, i was on Europa

[steel stream]

Yup

[edgy laurel]

did Deep Stone Crypt many times

[steel stream]

Yeah so the campaigns that follow would be Witch Queen -> Lightfall -> The final shape

[edgy laurel]

that was the last raid I ever did

[steel stream]

I did the newest raid recently, that was a good time

[edgy laurel]

just realized no more day 1 raid's to watch. sad

[steel stream]

Yeah

But there will be pantheon 2.0

[edgy laurel]

true. any more raids coming back for that?

I wanted to see Levi come back

[steel stream]

I think there will be encounters from previous raids coming back

So far it looks like Calus, Argos, and Gahlran

Idk about the full raid, but encounters will be reprised and returned

[edgy laurel]

Oh man, ok thats cool. Iv'e done all those guys many times

erm

shut up

[steel stream]

Yes I want scourge boss to come back

[edgy laurel]

CAP

[steel stream]

Anybody else was lying

[edgy laurel]

i'm hearing the salvo of Whispers chunking away

[cosmic gazelle]

does anyone know why the i7-8086k exists

it looks like the exact same thing as the 8700k with a mild overclock

[edgy laurel]

you don't recognize the name?

it was to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the 8086

[cosmic gazelle]

i mean i get the 8086 thing but like

was it just 8700k anniversary edition

[edgy laurel]

just a special edition is all

[cosmic gazelle]

oh okay i don't think i realized

damn people were running 4500mts ram on 8700ks

this guy just has a regular ass pc and was running 5.4ghz all core and 4500 ram

gotta respect the hustle ngl

[civic reef]

OEM GPU ❤️

[shell void]

that's what it is

it's just what wouldve been the 8700KS, but 8086K was a more interesting special edition anniversary name

[cosmic gazelle]

doesn't appear to be binned better tho

not measurably

[shell void]

looking at a few reddit posts is anecdotal

[cosmic gazelle]

hwbot

all the records for each cooling type are exactly the same

[low sorrel]

@steel stream do you think bungie is just gonna die

[shell void]

yeah that's typical

14900ks is on average better than 14900k which is on average better than 13900ks which is on average better than 13900k

but there will be well-known XOCers that are given 13900k engineering samples that are better than most 14900ks, it is the same cpu after-all, average quality goes up over time, but there are still some golden chips at every stage of the lifecycle

[low sorrel]

oh i have one somewhere

paid like 20 bucks for it

is it worth anything?

[cosmic gazelle]

100+ on ebay

halo tax for 1151

[low sorrel]

I liked the box yk

[low sorrel]

not even sure if it works lol

[steel stream]

Bring me back

[cosmic gazelle]

you coud probably find a crappy z390 for like pennies

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress do you have a z390 by chance

[merry stirrup]

my mom started playing recently

[edgy laurel]

unfortunate timing

[merry stirrup]

she really liked destiny 1 but d2 came out when me and my siblings needed more active attention

[low sorrel]

akn has finally conviced me to play destiny 2 again

[edgy laurel]

its weird that I'm gonna jump in and just kinda vibe. back in the day it was all about doing all the things, collecting all the things

andit became a job, so I had to stop

but since the game is ending, there is no pressure

[steel stream]

Yeah idk, I can’t imagine bungie will do very well without destiny

[low sorrel]

did you see that kyle busch died

[edgy laurel]

they weren't doing very well with it, which is the problem.

but now, knowing about the layoffs

I thought maybe they could survive the interim and come back strong with a new title in the universe in a few years but

[low sorrel]

it' s looking bleak

[edgy laurel]

exactly

[low sorrel]

marathon 2

[steel stream]

I mean yeah, but they probably put a lot of effort into marathon and weren’t focusing on D2

[low sorrel]

@steel stream when get on destiny

[steel stream]

But now the destiny name might be too tarnished for another game

[steel stream]

15?

[low sorrel]

make it 30

game downloading

[steel stream]

I can play for probs an hour if that’s cool

I’ll have more time Friday and the weekend

[low sorrel]

if were playing between 1-3pm my time on the weekend

im watching f1 at the same time

[edgy laurel]

Killed by the Architects

@steel stream did you ever do Gahlran?

[steel stream]

Think I’ve got one clear

Was a cool raid lol

[edgy laurel]

thats a really cool final encounter. hectic as hell

[topaz veldt]

I can't believe you kept the window open long enough for that

[merry stirrup]

trust me that is not my video

[steel stream]

Yeah the hive + menagerie theme was awesome. I just really wanted tarrabah

You should buy a steam roller

I am curious as to what you think of the HDR in the game, imo it's pretty solid

a good implementation

[edgy laurel]

which is funny since its pretty old

I remember HDR was an option back in like 2017

[steel stream]

maybe i just like it because I've been using it for so long lol? Stockholmed myself into thinking its good

[low sorrel]

@steel stream LOLLLLLL

[shell void]

perhaps it's just good

being older doesnt mean it's bad

[low sorrel]

someone just bought my skin for 50 bucks even though it's worth 15

[shell void]

a lot of modern hdr masters are terrible

[steel stream]

god damn

maybe you should buy the controller

[shell void]

brother jerry did u get that 4070 yet?

[edgy laurel]

r u gonna preorder gta 6 super duper ultra premium max ultimate collector's awesomesauce edition?

[fringe vigil]

prob not, they wont put anything in there that will be worth buying

idc about artbooks, soundtrack or figurines tbh, deluxe edition prob yeah, if it lets you play early

[shell void]

that's fair enough

theyre a bit cringe nowadays tbh, the companies milk them

the base physical edition of gta 5 came with the map on ps3/360

nowadays theyd make you buy a deluxe edition to get a map

[fringe vigil]

id get deluxe thats it

i learnt not to buy collectors edition after elden ring, its pointless

i have the statues and books locked away

[shell void]

that box looks frickin sick though

holy hell it was $200? XD

[fringe vigil]

yeah

the box is nice yeah and the statue ig but not really worth it

its good if you like collecting things

i bought both collectors editions

for dlc

i regret it but cant go back

[shell void]

you can probably sell it for more than you paid if you regret it that much

[fringe vigil]

ig

[fringe vigil]

itll be a rare collectible or whatever so ig its good i have both

lf help with my fans on laptop acre nitro

One fan spins while the other doesn’t

[shell void]

i wonder how bad the node congestion is with plans like these though

if theyre giving everyone 10Gb for $30 then it's definitely passive fiber which means that there are probably dozens of people sharing one 10Gb or 25Gb link

most likely 10Gb, and a single person could saturate the whole thing

[brisk jolt]

my friend connected directly to 10g router w 10g nic maxes at about 8

[shell void]

i mean congestion is a problem for everyone, there can be hundreds of people on one coax node or cell tower, but most of those people will be on cheaper lower speed plans and unable to singlehandedly saturate the whole uplink

[brisk jolt]

you have to realize at least half my block is full of elderly persons who prob at most have a 1gbps plan

[shell void]

sadly i bet a lot of them are subcribed to the 10Gb plan if it's only $30, but theyre using it via terrible wifi access points at like 200mbps xD

which is good for you

[brisk jolt]

chances are the average for them is prob like wifi 4 to 6 at besy

which being old af I doubt is gonna be that impactful xdddd

[turbid locust]

@merry stirrup @pure garnet I still can’t figure out why this board idles my CPU at 90-100W. Permanently in boost clock too. It’s like c-states are broken (I tried forcing them to be enabled)

that’s so weird

buying used ssd on ebay ok?

[brisk jolt]

the best part is when you get onto the highway part THE AUDI GETS LIKE 50KMH BOOST

[indigo walrus]

Depends on the make / model of SSD, its usage history, and your intended use-case.

[brisk jolt]

I got boosted by it and deadass that AI has like 200 more bhp

and a conveniently placed double traffic fucked me over

like bro

[shell void]

sure if it's a good drive and a reputable seller

not to mention they have stupid handling and their brakes is like heated F1 brakes like WTF

[hasty grove]

just gaming, i still need to be find the cheapest price to performance dram tlc/qlc ssd idk where to start

get a tlc ssd

dram is pretty useless unless you actually need it (not useful for gaming)

[hasty grove]

i got told to get dram

[hasty grove]

can u recommend me one

[brisk jolt]

ur getting it off ebay just google the models u find and see reviews and specs

[shell void]

ideally yes but SSDs are expensive right now

a few of the better M.2 drives are Samsung 990 Pro, Sk-Hynix P41, WD SN850X, and WD SN8100

[hasty grove]

finding an ssd is the hardest part for me idk anything ab them like all the other shit easy

did you see the clip of the ai pickup truck going like 280mph+ on the highway

[turbid locust]

@shell void Can you remind me which is the proper preset of DLSS I should be using/overriding for games? I know M and L but what are the others?

Should I just default M?

[shell void]

"K" (4.0) is the most smooth and natural looking, and it gives you more FPS than "M" or "L", but it compresses light detail a bit (especially in HDR), and it has more smearing/ghosting

"M" (4.5) is the sharpest, and it has the least ghosting/smearing, but it has more artifacts on small details, especially foliage

"L" is the most balanced DLSS 4.5 Preset, it has less ghosting and more clarity than "K", and it suppresses aliasing and foliage artifacts more than than "M", but it isn't as sharp

Hardware Unboxed believes that Preset L is the best all-around preset, but itll depend on which game you're playing

"Recommended" in Nvidia App uses:
DLAA : K
Quality: K
Balanced: K
Performance: M
Ultra Performance: L

unfortunately it isn't simple anymore

[turbid locust]

I see I see. I just swapped it to M and it definitely looks better at Quality, but I did notice like a 10-15% performance hit over whatever the game uses stock

[radiant drift]

Hi guys can anyone tell me whats the best budget cpu cooler preferably under $60 am5 socket im running a ryzen 7 9700x

[low sorrel]

@brisk jolt Whos at fault im the mustang

[shell void]

most games still default to DLSS 3.5 CNN (D/E or whatever), or DLSS 4.0 (K) so overriding M/L will drop your performance a bit

but the penalty is reduced at lower resolutions

it barely matters at 1080p (performance at 4K)

[turbid locust]

hmmmm

I dont like the idea of smearing with K

[low sorrel]

Oh so what I still play at

[brisk jolt]

ive seen enough, 5 second penalty for ocon

[shell void]

if you want the most consistently good experience on a 5090 then override Preset L

and then use Performance or Quality depending on the game

[turbid locust]

At all quality settings?

ok cool

[shell void]

Preset L is the most advanced model at the moment

[low sorrel]

Should I run m or L

I do performance

[shell void]

if youre on 30 series then you should use Preset K

[turbid locust]

See I thought M was best for Quality or Balanced and L was best for anything under Balanced

[low sorrel]

4070

[brisk jolt]

whoever coded the FH6 AI is genuinely evil

Make the corner (Optional)
Divebomb the player (High Priority)
Drink and Drive (24/7)
Cause a huge traffic accident (High Priority)

[shell void]

40 and 50 series can use M (sharper) or L (smoother) natively

[low sorrel]

Fun fact the seasonal events are broken if you do it in a convoy

[brisk jolt]

Ive had 4 sightseeing/side events where all the AI just spun out at a sharp corner themselves

not to mention I finished a race and spawned into a literal traffic jam with no way out

[floral spear]

Ford

[turbid locust]

L hit performance even harder than M

[pure garnet]

i just use k and i haven’t noticed much ghosting

[shell void]

K = best anti-aliasing, best performance, but worst ghosting and smearing

M= sharpest, but worst anti-aliasing and foliage artifacts, and medium performance

L = middleground preset, but worst performance

[turbid locust]

Well, ima be honest, I cant tell the difference between quality and performance when actually playing the game so L Performance it is

Gets me back up to whatever the game uses natively at Quality

[shell void]

yeah that's real

[brisk jolt]

@low sorrel @floral spear @cosmic gazelle what difficulty AI do yall play on

[shell void]

i usually use performance because it's hard to tell the difference on my 32" 4K monitor from 32-36" away

even if i don't need the fps boost it still cuts my wattage down a lot

[turbid locust]

Now imagine me on a 42' at the same distance lol

[turbid locust]

I play on Highly Skilled because Expert just has fuckin NOS

[shell void]

it was a lot easier to see the differences in DLSS presets on my C4 42

but i still used DLSS Preset L Performance most of the time

either that or K DLAA/Quality if i wanted smooth edges instead

[brisk jolt]

expert +200bhp +LMP2 brakes +GT3 downforce in B class

[floral spear]

Unbeatable

[brisk jolt]

expert is barely even winnable

[pure garnet]

i use balanced or performance on the baby monitor

depends on the title

[brisk jolt]

yeah chud’s getting 5th every race

[turbid locust]

Highly Skilled im always at least top 3 and win most of the time which is fun for me

Expert just wasnt fun LMAO

[cosmic gazelle]

i played on the one below unbeatable before

now i play on above average because expert is literally cheating

[pure garnet]

putting that shit on grandma mode because it’s more fun fr

[brisk jolt]

have you done the 1v1 touge race against keiko? on expert there is NO SHOT you’re winning

holy launch speed holy braking holy handling

[turbid locust]

I havent done any Touge yet

[brisk jolt]

i cant even get in proximity to ram her

[cosmic gazelle]

dude forget the AI, online racing is the most cancerous thing I've ever played in my life. any anti-ramming measures they put in before are just gone

people just play heavier cars and ram you the entire time

[brisk jolt]

its typical forza

i brought my laptop to play forza but i haven’t touched it in 2 days

hooray

[cosmic gazelle]

i had a dude ram me off the map in a way that tanked HIS OWN RACE???? like are we so for real

[shell void]

in my eyes 1080p -> 2160p upscaling is the standard in 2026

with media and games

[pure garnet]

lego batman legacy of the dark knight runs well on her playstation at least

it’s a locked 30 in co-op with rt on

[cosmic gazelle]

i saw the hwu video and the batman game should run perfectly fine on your laptop lol

[pure garnet]

she bought it before i got here so

ps5 it was

[cosmic gazelle]

i need to start devolving into chasing rivals leaderboard spots man

that's the only thing i'm any good at online racing is so awful

yoko did you see my benchmark pic from earlier

[shell void]

i wasnt aware that you could do online multiplayer freeroam cruising in forza horizon until today

[cosmic gazelle]

like in a party or is that a new option

[shell void]

that make me more interested in buying it if any of my homies have it

[turbid locust]

it was a thing in the last like 3 horizon games lol

[pure garnet]

it’ll probably be cheap in the steam sale

[cosmic gazelle]

ik but i didn't know if he meant a new thing or not

[brisk jolt]

just grab it off china

[low sorrel]

first time playing forza?

[cosmic gazelle]

i do not play online and i stopped bothering with festival playlist shit in 5 after like a month

so it's been a while but like

it's literally so fixable just give the option for full ghost races

[low sorrel]

custom racing > collisons off

[cosmic gazelle]

is collisions off already a thing?

[cosmic gazelle]

does it like auto fill people?

[low sorrel]

yes

[brisk jolt]

forza is not fun without collisions

[cosmic gazelle]

oh sick

[low sorrel]

@steel stream any chance your still alive

[cosmic gazelle]

i cannot fathom a world in which dealing with ramming is more fun

[brisk jolt]

dealing with the ramming isnt fun

seeing it in action is

time to rivals the shirakawa circuit or whatever it's called

[karmic pendant]

does adding 250mhz on vram hurts them?

[brisk jolt]

i expect grandma driving to be putting out a nice driving compilation soon

[cosmic gazelle]

this is the car i'm gonna try to use, i usually have good results with ferraris

[shell void]

hurt as in damage? no
hurt as in stability? possible

gpu vram oc overall isn’t worthwhile

[turbid locust]

[cosmic gazelle]

[shell void]

[brisk jolt]

[turbid locust]

[karmic pendant]

i am undervolting

[cosmic gazelle]

on ddr3 cards it actually scales performance literally, it's crazy

[cosmic gazelle]

good luck being in 5th pal

[karmic pendant]

[brisk jolt]

you will now be able to win like 20% of races comfortably

[cosmic gazelle]

[low sorrel]

[brisk jolt]

expert and above is divebomb traffic incident and pit manuever land

if the race is like <10km its genuinely RNG and pray that theres a huge traffic incident

[turbid locust]

yeah bitch

I was 3-4th most the race till the last couple turns

[low sorrel]

mac hop on

lets do coop races

[brisk jolt]

i think stupidly enough rally races with loads of corners are the easiest

[low sorrel]

forza ai does not know how to take a rally corner

[turbid locust]

How does that work

[low sorrel]

you get 50 points per ai you finish above

the ai gets 100

whichever team gets the highest wins

obv need to crack ai diffculty to make it fun

[turbid locust]

ight add me on xbox or whatever Mac3613

[brisk jolt]

im gonna be playing at 1440p

I have a bundle for cpu ram and motherboard so its a bit cheaper

[cosmic gazelle]

i don't think this car is working out yall top 10% is ass

oh the ferrari is an awd car no wonder it feels like shit

[brisk jolt]

i love RWD cars but I think the rear grip loss is too exagerative

even on stock cars without a lot of power its really too aggressive

I could hop on rn but I wanna go nap b4 work

[cosmic gazelle]

1% will come tomorrow

[mossy yarrow]

What's the best Linux distro for gamers

I've had it up to here with windows 11 🤏

[low sorrel]

All of them

[mossy yarrow]

Gotcha

I don't think it was a Windows issue though, my BIOS somehow went from xmp profile 1 at 5200Mhz stock timings to 6400 Mhz 💀

Im guessing that was causing extreme instability on my 5200 Mhz rated stick

[mossy yarrow]

Yeah no that isn't the issue either I'm pretty sure a power surge the other day killed my PSU

Thats what the dump files looking like at least

[feral hinge]

I’d be doing a reset on the bios if your had a recent power surge recently
Also I’d be looking at a surge protector to prevent it from happening aigan

[mossy yarrow]

I have a surge protector, I bought a $60 one off Amazon but that was probably my first issue

Y'know it also probably doesn't help that I was running a 700w ThermalTake smart PSU...

[dense granite]

I'm running my computer off of this tbf. Anker Power Strip Surge... https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B09SG2Q23M

[mossy yarrow]

I'll buy that too while I'm at it

Going to Walmart when their open to purchase an rmx 850e gold

[frank cypress]

@low sorrel @dense granite https://www.facebook.com/share/18QcHeUzoL/

[dense granite]

Nice.

[low sorrel]

I do need more storage...

[dense granite]

Pretty degraded btw.

Just in case you wanted to store important stuff.

[low sorrel]

[low sorrel]

[dense granite]

This is better than nothing then ig.

[low sorrel]

but so expensiveeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[mossy yarrow]

She's rattling

[frank cypress]

eh should be fine

[mossy yarrow]

I love diagnosing my PSU as dead with a garbage non 80+ rated cx650m

[frank cypress]

id buy it but i dont want a bunch of 1tb drives ngl

id rather have more hdd

for mass storage

[dense granite]

I bet this will make you feel better, but me and my brother's NAS just died like 1 hour ago.

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress do you think i can put that pcie card under the 4070

[dense granite]

Also PSU or mobo.

Can't test rn since he doesn't have a spare PSU at his house.

[frank cypress]

I was gonna say do you even have bifurcation lil bro but you do

[low sorrel]

i mean

[frank cypress]

with the radiator in? I doubt it

[mossy yarrow]

Oh god

[frank cypress]

[low sorrel]

it's a x570 godlike

[frank cypress]

I know it has it

[mossy yarrow]

That's even worse 😭

[low sorrel]

and the vertically mounted 4070

[dense granite]

No Immich, no Vaulwarden, no media server.

Poof, just like that.

[mossy yarrow]

May she rest in peace

[dense granite]

At least the pw and shit is cached in the extension and app for a little bit.

[mossy yarrow]

Fly high NAS server 🕊️

[low sorrel]

@frank cypress Hear me out

[dense granite]

[low sorrel]

[low sorrel]

[low sorrel]

[frank cypress]
