im leaning towards computers in general, but yes
"Do you track devices that an individual who uses facebook has, that is connected to the device that they use for their facebook connection but not necessarily connected to facebook?"
"I'm not sure of the answer to that question"
just a polite way of saying wtf are you on about cunt
Hah
What is the worst statement from a representative or senator who claims to know how the internet or computers work?
Was the whole facebook thing just a bum thing or was there actually some significance to it?
im trying to find my favorite one atm, cant remember what it is tho
iirc, that was after the whole cambridge analytica thing
"S-surprise mechanics"
and it was basically just them trying to justify why they get paid so much to sit around and do so little
as much as i dont like zuckerberg at times, rewatching his interviews, i feel really bad for him
but a lizard does

lets be real, hes a lizard person
lmao
Certainly slimy and squirmy like one 
Mm
"there have been reports that facebook can track a users internet browsing activity, even after that user has logged off of the facebook platform, can you confirm whether or not this is true?"
man, its like these guys havent even bothered doing a quick google search
Any more dumb statements?
plenty, im just to lazy to type them
i still love australias government tho
pauline hanson asking about the capability of australias new submarines, and then getting pissy when she gets told its classified information, all while publicly televised
What part of the government was she?
foreign affairs, defence, and trade
Well then it shouldn't be classified, no?
Except it was direct to the public buuuuuuuuuuuut
yes and no
they were state of the art submarines, by australian standards
Ah
rip
iirc she was asking about how long they can stay submerged
and the admiral she was interviewing is like wtf
Ah this is just one of the "I don't clearly know what they are" things
very much so
i just love the interjection part way through of "you dont get to decide whats classified"
Ass jack man https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-lMIGV-dUI
"Does google know thing me move"
Impressive that it seems google got a bunch of shit on them
And then something something iPhone with google
hnnnng my server will be delivered on Thursday. Right before holiday weekend, great time to do a new build and migrations
nice, new servers are always fun. whats your plans.
So I already have one server - 20 cores, 192 gb ram which has about a dozen VM's on it. The plan is to setup this 2nd server in a secondary mode. So essentially one server w/ VM's is primary, 2nd w/ VM's is secondary so if one server fails, the secondary takes over. it'll allow me to do physical server maintenance, etc easier.
I also want to eventually migrate one server to another location, but that is a long ways off. this would allow me to have the infrastructure in place to allow that to happen
hnnnngh
nice, yeah i have alot of equipment in storage, hope to have a house in a few years to have my own full setup. I am down to my main rig and a old rig i have that i run some stuff off of. You are nice and setup to do alot of fun stuff at home. while the cloud is great and tech will push that way, i do perfer to have my own stuff on prem for alot of different reason, but i just love tactile and the ability of full control myself.
don't get me wrong GCP is really nice, I have stuff there. I had at godaddy, moved to hivelocity (loved them, but expensive). Then moved to GCP which is nice for spinning up and destroying VM's as needed. I might keep a couple things there as a front-end for load balancing purposes but I got 2 servers (20 cores, 192 GB ram, 30 TB HDD | 24 cores, 192 GB ram, 8 TB SSD) for about $6,000 total which is a fuckin steal. I have a half-rack, unifi gear, gigabit fiber, UPS, generator. I've got the whole works.
But I also host a slew of apps, bots, websites, databases, etc. so I have a need for it all.
amazing, that is more then a fuckin steal mate, that a massacre. I need your hook up lol. Yeah i have played around with GCP,AWS, and azure. I have settled on azure more out of my work, then personal preference. you ever done folding at home?
did F@H type stuff a long time ago, but my personal/dev machine is more for development and some gaming, then servers all work related. I got them from Amazon - their refurbished line. They have some really nice r720 and r730's. Both of mine are 730xd's.
makes sense, was just curious on your thoughts on F@H. Nice yeah the main thing i have packed up is a r740, i was super lucky walked onto a new job site my company bought, old client left piles of stuff that was going to be junked if no one took it. I walked away happy and arms full.
damn, what are the specs of the 740? they are really solid machines.
honestly, i dont 100% remember because its packed up for the past 6 months. the harddrives were all degaussed so i have to get new ones. i know it atleast had 16 cores and 128GB ram.
that's not bad
for free its great, plus i have a lot of projects i will expand to it when i do get it setup, but for now i dont see the need of expanding beyond
i would love to set it up, but the APT i moved into is smaller then I thought, had to move blind bc of covid, I already take up enough of the space i do have that my fiancee would have some words
goals right their, btw love the hat
yeah i have my test rig, that host a couple things on one side under my desk, and my main rig on the other and i am toasty for sure. put in a 980ti a week ago and now i have an extra 2 degrees under my desk. I just hope i dont burn it all out long term
btw is that a 20U rack with caster wheels on the bottom?
because if it is that is the ideal size i am looking for for my final build when i get a house, and if it is i like a link and an opinion (not that to many racks aredifferent then others)
So it's a 22U, with casters, locking, etc. StarTech is really nice, but also pricey, any good quality rack is. But this is the one I got, same one my buddy has too: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000IZ95CQ
thats not a bad price from what i have been researching, i found a navepoint i have had my eye on for 20U thats a little under that price. but i have never used it as a brand, so i am still tossing up if the couple hundred i save is worth it.
how do you feel about the wheels, i have never had a rack mobile, and have hear the horror stories of casters giving out and damaging product or worst taking a foot
well the wheels lock so it can prevent movement. the thing is heavy, so you want wheels, unless it's going in a spot that has plenty of room on all sides
yeah i am on the fence, wheels sound nice, but i am really unsure if i care enought about the mobility, because at the end of the day in a SOHO enviroment i would not have any specail tools to help me move it so i still be unracking most stuff to move it
I'm only using the 11 out of 13 static IP's I have already, but with the new server I'll need more.
i hate talking to isp about this stuff, never easy
Well it depends where you plan to put the rack. Is it going to be in a closet and only front entrance and no way to get at the side/back. Will be be in an open space in the basement where you can walk around all sides? You'll need to take the sides or open the back to mount stuff, so depends if you can get around it
yeah, i am still to far out from where i will own to make a decision now, but i like to have an idea of what i want to do. more then likely i put it in the basement, so the wheels would only help with access in the basement and not moving it from location to location.
yeah for me the wheels are nice so I can turn it in my apt to get access to the sides/back since it's up against 2 walls
yeah i end up putting it in the corner more then likely. have you made and modifications to the case you own?
rack case
no, but i plan to add some more LED's at some point
beyond that, no real need. it has 4 strong posts, stuff can be mounted on either side, openings on top and bottom both sides for cables to come in and out. locks on side and front/back panels
nice, well i got to run. ttyl
doc, did you snort the rgb powder again
it's 6 pm
and i'm on call tomorrow at 8 am, so making most of my last night for the next week
my secretary is aware and told me to be responsible
what are you on call for?
work
you had better drink some 99.97%water afterwards tho
His robot certification
means if there's an application / system issue, I get paged and need to answer. if I don't my secondary does, and that's not a good look, if he doesn't our manager does. that's bad.
me talking to the chat rep:
me gets call from att "hi i'm calling because you haven't responded to the rep"
me: I just responded 30 secconds ago and have been consistently
i think your gfx card might be having issues
just discord
your graphics card is having some issues
nope just discord
check your drivers just in case?
Mmm D0c using Ubiquiti networking
uniquiti is love. ubuquity is life
Too bad the store sells it as special order
amd did design the 64bit version of x86, so i guess its true
i think intel used to have to pay amd to make 64bit cpus
9900k suddenly $679 when it was onlt $600 last week hmmm
linux distros still call it amd64, even if you are using an intel chip
9900K has probably stopped being produced if it's like that
But then again
At least that only makes the 3900X an even more viable option at this point
anyone know about the discord screen share? been having audio issues. as in there is none
for some reason audio usually only works when you share the specific application and not the entire screen
Is there a reason Payday 2 will not launch?
For 5 seconds after hitting the play button, the Running status appears, no window opens, and then the Running status is gone and the play button reverts.
Try quitting Steam and relaunching it.
What happend yo your mod role
Oof
I tried that and it didn't work.
Try verifying the game files through Steam.
Right click the game > Properties... > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Files
That too didn't work.
Is it showing up in Task Manager when you click the Play button?
No.
Do you have any antivirus installed?
Bitdefender.
Try disabling it and then relaunching the game.
Should I add it as an exception?
Unless you can exclude the whole folder, but it might be better to disable it for now. I've had issues where I whitelist stuff with my antivirus, but it still gets caught anyway.
And when I try to open the exe directly, it says I am missing a dll called MSVCR120
Oh, it sounds like you're missing Visual C++.
Which one do I get?
c++ runtime.
I would just try uninstalling and reinstalling the game so it prompts you with the correct version you need.
I tried that already.
It worked.
payday2 and gtfo are the same game
carry bags of money/dead babies
open doors with drills/scans
keep cops/sleepers from killing you
literally the same
Yeah but the gameplay is very different
they aren't exactly the same
Payday 2, you have like miles of ammo everywhere, so much running, hyper shit
skill points to invest in
i'm just waiting for the update that forces john wick into a spacesuit as a playable character
GTFO takes it to monsters, the majority being regular weaklings, stealth always a priority otherwise that's just Payday the heist Overkill difficulty, and definitely more planning to it, not just "Go do shit"
wait, are you telling me they literally arent the same game?
yes
Its certainly more nuanced than described
no no no, they have to be, both have sentry guns
Much more slow paced, going guns blazing is just suicide, and you really have to plan and do teamwork
Yes but it's much slower paced
Though I'll admit, I would love a Payday tie in where it turns out The Warden is actually Bain 
You're not gonna expect jumping around, without intense planning in GTFO
It's just you have to really take it a lot slower than even what Payday 2 stealth would do
"guys the neonate, go get it"
hah
yeah, i swear i heard that
"Guys, the drill. Go get it."
they just port over all the Payday 2 voice lines
Not needed when we have Bain himself already
Absolutely
Simon Viklund is Bain if you didn't already know
"your not going to last much longer with all those sleepers around"
when are we gonna be able to take sleepers as hostages
Where's the body bag?
and "be careful with sleepers around, it gets expensive real fast"
Notable difference, explosives
Only explosives are tripmines really
Don't see why we can't have a bit more on terms of explosives tbf
Like a small, makeshift grenade
I don't think the devs want you to be able to throw things to take out groups of sleepers
which is why you place mines with the mine deployer so you can't really spam it
Yeah
A rare grenade wouldn't hurt things too badly I think
And otherwise, a trip mine is already a weak explosive, but does enough
Unless it actually kills
A small radius explosive grenade, would make it fair
Or just have it stagger the enemies
you have proven my point
your point of what?
someone even suggested you get your own cell (safehouse) to customize in game-suggestions
that doesn't mean payday and GTFO are the same
tbh, i'd like if the trip mine item had a larger range than the regular mines.
Suggestion from hovsep#3200 (202863069360160769)
it would be nice to have your own cell (since you are a prisoner) and be able to costumize it like add a radio or posters on the walls using money that you receive from succesfull expeditions
It's supposed to be weak anyways I guess
All that says is there are people that want similar features from Payday
It'd just honestly be nice to have a little bit of explosives that only stagger
Would be a neat thing overall, stagger them for a max of like
3 seconds
And with more rarity than other items
like an air cannon or something
i want to see the stack of money in my cell from past expeditions
I wonder if the prisoners even get paid
i'd like completing the rundown to give you a sandbox area where you can spawn things.
I honestly believe they're Russian prisoners tbh
Russian?
There's a lot of English onto it
But it'd be a neater kind of uhh
Feel to it if they were russians
Because after all
I'd like something like a sandbox, but it shouldn't be unlocked for completing the rundown
What does Russia not have?
I don't recall reading anything about the lore than involved Russians
There's nothing on anything not English so it's kinda meh
But still a neat environment nonethless
Isn't this #pc-build-help-and-tech-talk?
too bad your're not a mod anymore...
It is, I was gonna mention that this shouldn't turn into GTFO chat but 
Meh
srry nazo, cheap shot
I only just realised that
but how much time does being a mod here really require?
I genuinely thought Discord bugged out and I was actually in #gtfo-chat. LOL
Well back on topic, those new 3000XT chips. Not very special from what we can tell for the moment, though there was talk of them and the new APUs coming out next week will allow the infinity fabric clock to get to 2000mhz and possibly OC to 2100
i meant from earlier when nazo said he didnt have the tim eto be a mod anymore
how much time is actually expected
I signed an NDA, so I can't say. 🤷♂️
I'm hoping the new GPUs will result in the 2000 series becoming more affordable, but it would be even better if AMD actually posed a threat to Nvidia.
There's a lot of info that points that to being the case though
At the very least, they're beating a 2080ti by 30%. There's been leaks of an Nvidia card doing the same, of course we don't know the identity of these cards
Yeah, but for AMD to beat Nvidia, they have beat whatever their new GPUs are by that margin.
Considering the node shrink, clock increases and the 3080 having the same amount of Cuda cores; I could believe a 30% increase on that one alone
ohh there's more to nvidia's lunacy in naming (we previously talked about the 3xxx naming scheme), turns out ampere is the name of a tech company that is also releasing computing hardware soon
so when you see 'ampere 80 core ARM chips for cloud computing' dont get confused
Well using the 2080ti just makes sense as a measurement for the moment, since it is currently the best one to compare to. Obviously Nvidia's new stuff will be compared to it as well
I know, but I'm just saying that's what needs to happen.
Though I agree, AMD would need a solid 50 - 60% leap over a 2080ti to likely compete with these cards
At the same time, I don't think Navi 2 will be the one to do it
I think Navi 3 will
Third time's the charm, its exactly how Ryzen went
Haha, probablyt
@fleet canopy Alright, July the 1st is here. What's the surprise?

How To Clean A GPU
Power cell?
Is that how you clean a GPU, Muppy?
...
So it must be true
I agree
Like
Gonna clean my 5700XT right now
I hear that some computers are submerged in water.
Hell I hear Google is trying to use the Ocean as a huge coolent.
well
lmao
you can’t
if electric go zappt sappy
Basically used water, with something else to make it non conductive
B550 finally arrived in BC Canada 
neat
Let us know how it is, @proper wren .
but im able to do it to other executables without setting compatability mode
just realized i never actually posted my comment from before, submerged PCs usually use either deionized water or a non conductive mineral oil, but deionized water needs to be replaced semi frequently, and oil is virtually impossible to get off components, so its a pain in the ass to reuse
as for your issue clay, not quite sure
does not help that plastic is generally non-polar, and mineral oil is also generally non-polar.
so the oil dissolves into the plastic and rubber and weakens it.
so the pc basically falls apart in a few years.
iirc there was a special oil that could be used, and was long term stable, but man, it was probably pretty expensive
yeah, and also begs the question of "why?"
the answer would be "because"
i used to know a guy who had a submerged comp, built out of parts that didnt work
a game hit that with me once, i felt betrayed.
like, they would all power up, fans would spin, but no post
all outdated stuff
so he just left it running for about 3 years
man, imagine if you didnt bench the build before submerging.
not doing anything, just a showpiece
coz he owned a little computer shop
sort of mostly consultancy stuff
handled backups and other tech support for small businesses
wait, so he built it expressly for the purpose of display?
more or less
one of his clients gave him a bunch of outdated parts that didnt really work
shoulda just used DI water.
probably only cost him like 100 bucks to do the whole thing
got a second hand fish tank, and the parts were all free
probably only paid for the oil
the guy really loved his show pieces
his office was basically a shrine to starwars lego
had a full meter long star destroyer

idk how one can help you with that info
better if you tell us what temps you normally have (for games that may be as demanding as GTFO)
found out why my computer was running a bit slow
I had the RAM plugged into 1-2 rather that 1-3
@brisk badger in say gta 5 all maxed out
i dont go over 65
before gtfo the max i ever got playing games was 70
some building at the office today
smh, that ram isn’t social distancing
Noctuas, FE card, Fractal case
Im liking it
Or it seems like a fractal case, Not 100% sure lol
I am not sure but i think the air throuhput is less with two fans so close to each other, especially since they are different size(on the left side). I would just remove the fan on the case and send it to a guy called "wooza" here on discord
it's like the nether Tinted, 1/4 inch is 6 feet.
@brisk badger haha, I could move the left giant one to the right side
Maybe would make more sense
@jade ermine fractal case, aye
It’s a define C
3800x, 2080ti FE, 32GB 3600mhz Ram
Chrome goes om nom nom nom
and it makes sweet love
oof
Chrome loves that ram
good thing i have a server arriving tomorrow w/ 192 GB of it. Can open a few more tabs
I am also building a 3600x, 16gb ram, rx 5700
It as chunky as the one above
Still, a really solid rig
Noctua is life
is there a newbie channel?
@next kelp Not in the 2nd and 4th RAM slot? Is it different for your motherboard?
I thought it had to specifically be 2nd and 4th for dual channel support
Ah
kek
for a fucking book
Have fun
Can I get the stickers that come with the stuff? I like stickers.
That card is like twice the size of everything else lol
Other than that, it's an obvious meme anyways
"Ok, to clarify: this is a meme post, not everyone is getting the joke lol, I have a 2080 ti from my main rig and wanted to see if it would fit into a motherboard from 2006. Might do a bench"
Nice
Just imagine how limited it will be from PCIE gen 1 
Alrighty got a 2TB HDD.
I went with the WD Black... Fuck the lawsuit, if it doesn't crash it's good for me xD
Anyone think its worth to upgrade from a 2070 super to a 3070 super when it comes out?
If it does 1080p 144/240 or 1440p 144hz well for you, then I don't think it would matter so much
The 3070 will likely be on par with the 2080ti, at least within 5% of one in terms of game performance
Also thinking of upgrading to 4700x when it comes out from my 9700k
However if you wanted to upgrade nonetheless or it is not performing too well, I'd definitely recommend seeing how those perform, perhaps a 3080 might do very well
Actually that will not exist, they're relegating that to the 4700G
Which is coming out next week I think
A 4700G? Hm
Its a Zen 2 APU
So why an APU?
^
because laptops
So its clear to me that AMD want to upsell 8 cores for atleast another generation, that's what the 3800X was supposed to be. But with the 3700X around it didn't matter
So it will be a 4700G and a 4800X?
So segmenting last gen silicon as they usually do with APUs, there will be a significant difference between the 4700G and a 4800X
Justifying the 399 price tag they will most likely have it at again
The 4700G will basically be a 3700X with onboard graphics
That's about it.
Well that and it's a play to force Intel to compete along those lines. Given the poor yields Intel has, it's less profitable
Overall superior product line at better price forces intel to compete with lower profitability. It's a flip of situations
Rocket Lake will be... okay. Alder Lake should be decent since they're finally bringing 10nm to desktop consumers. Its a question if its too late, but from leaks it sounds like it will be promising with what they're doing with it.
Which if anyone's curious, it seems they're going to be using different quality cores; up to 16 cores. So the first 8 cores will be the best quality with hyperthreading, and the other half of the cores being of lower quality and without hyperthreading. So 16c/24t kinda weird; but it can work considering the first 8 cores would pull most of the weight and the smaller cores will just be for background stuff.
Hm - would there be a big difference for a 2080ti to be put in the 4x PCIe lane, instead of the 16x?
is it pcie 4.0?
PCIe 3.0 x8, 7880MB/s
PCIe 3.0 x16, 15760MB/s
PCIe 4.0 x8, 15752MB/s
PCIe 4.0 x16, 31504MB/s
So half the bandwidth
With an MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X
Aside from this
I'd imagine it's a bigger difference when it comes to a 2080 Ti
It just hit me today
That it's on x8?
That I haven’t even checked what lane I’m using in my powerrig 😂
@dense wasp 99,9%: If it'S the upper one it's 16x
@fleet canopy what CPU did they use?
The 1080 one, i7-5930K
i see.
We are happy to report that the RTX 2080 Ti is finally able to overwhelm PCIe gen 3.0 x8, posting a small but tangible 2%–3% performance gain when going from gen 3.0 x8 to gen 3.0 x16, across resolutions. Granted, these are single-digit percentage differences, and you won't be able to notice them in regular gameplay, but graphics card makers expect you to pay like $100 premiums for factory overclocks that fetch essentially that much more performance out of the box. The performance difference isn't nothing, just like with those small out-of-the-box performance gains, but such small differences are impossible to notice in regular gameplay.
Pfft
The Verge is 100% correct
xD
So that sounds like anything above a PCIe x8 won't make a huge difference
Any pcie lane is perfect, doesn't matter

Playing with a 2070 Super in the very bottom
So PCIe3 x8, x16, or PCIe4 x8 is fine
I mean. Do people even know what these lanes mean? Nowadays with all these cores... I mean the lanes are just the "split parts" of the CPU that are used for the lanes.
Getting 40FPS in Metro Exodus with max graphics, RTX maxed
and tbh: 4FPS are not that bad. Specially if you use the x16 for something different, but not many use it anyways. And with the good chipsets that are build in, even in the "cheap" motherboards, it is no wonder it's getting easier and easier to do the right thing when it comes to building a PC.
4FPS, hm
And most time the expensive motherboards are so overloaded with features 90% of people never use it's no wonder it makes no difference :D
I’ll check where I have it to start with
I don't have all the numbers in my head. But it's really not a lot difference. the "most" difference is the downstreaming of data when loading, like in GTAV or open world games in general, but with this game it is "old" (yeah... i know). And with todays hardware it makes no difference
"oh wait, i use my on board gpu"-Ludvig :P
i had a person that had a 2080 in #gtfo-technical-support and i tried to find out why his GPU isn't working. With the language barrier (he was french... and we don't talk about my english) it was time consuming, but i asked for a picture of his backside from his PC. I saw that he had the safety caps on the GPU... for over two years... it was an amazing experience
The what?
the important part is to use the pcie lanes that are connected to the cpu, not the chipset lanes
wait, that still exists nowadays?
What do ya mean safety cap???
@fleet canopy when you buy a new graphics card, and most when you buy a full pc, there are little caps on the outputs to protect them. They are made out of plastic.
dust caps
Yeah, and with some people that have no idea of technic it can be hard... but it's always nice when you can help someone and he's just thankful.
I don't see anything wrong with keeping those dust caps in. Cleaner ports that aren't used is a win in my book.
it's bad when all the gpu ports are covered XD
Ah right, it was such a big mistake I assumed it's impossible 
Naw, if i had a car i would be at the same position. I would be like "well, this wheel does not look like the others...."
"lavars... that's the steering wheel 🤦♂️ "
"ohhh... so it's for the front"
The high end chipsets tend to have full bandwidth slots
Where as the more budget chipsets will only have full bandwidth on the top slot
do the cpus have 2x pcie 16x though?
I have a 3950x, if that doesn't support it, I don't know what does 😛
So how it works is the cpu will handle a certain amount of PCIE lanes
The chipset will handle any extra
the 3950 might, but not all cpus have that many
So typically you get 20 - 24 lanes
chipset provides the rest like demo said
On the CPU
All Zen 2 parts have 24 lanes
So a 3600 has the same amount of lanes as a 3950x
An exception would be threadripper, if you want more you get more with that
Wow 88 lanes 
That's pretty cool
yeah, wasn’t that an issue with the 3980x
that it was basically an epyc chip sans the lanes
My new server has 2 of these CPU's which support 40 PCIe lanes each... https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/81713/intel-xeon-processor-e5-2690-v3-30m-cache-2-60-ghz.html
3990X, but yeah pretty much. Actually its not just the lanes its also RAM support
It doesn't support huge RAM dims like EPYC so you're limited to like 256GB max even though theoretically 2tb should be possible
I'm pretty sure the upper limit on RAM for for EPYC is 4tb, so even if the 3990X could support 2tb it really wouldn't be a big deal. Half the ram support and I think like half the lane support is different enough
Oh its 128 vs 88 lanes... eh I mean that's significant enough still
demonimo, so if ludvigs board has 2 16x slots, (32 lanes) and the cpu has 24 lanes, that must mean 1 of those 16x slots are chipset lanes
?
I did some reading, turns out Ryzen has 32 lanes on the die itself; but the socket limits it to 24 lanes. That's kind of irrelevant, but yeah I'm pretty sure that's how it works. Course I also read that 4 lanes go to the chipset whatever that means, so I could be entirely wrong. I think if both pci-e lanes are utilized, it splits the bandwidth
well what ever the configuration, the important part is the gfx card goes on cpu lanes
It splits the lanes between the PCIe lanes and the PCH lanes.
As to have bandwith to run basic USB and I/O features.
As well as M.2 and SATA
on x570, there are 24 lanes on cpu, 16 for graphics, and 4 for storage options, and 4 for the chipset
i'm not sure how but the chipset turns those 4 lanes into 12, must be some kind of switching, which is why you dont want to use those for graphics
Since the bandwidth is split between both PCIE slots when they're both used, it adds up
4700GE is hitting 2166 on the infinity fabric clock. That's 1:1 with 4333mhz RAM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHITEy9pHmY
Ah as it turns out, it is a single die. Which makes sense cause of it being an APU. This could be a glimpse at what Zen 3 will be like though.
Who is the worst tech Youtuber channel?
I don't actively rate channels in a tier list so I wouldn't know
anyone that does pure unboxing.
also niestat mabye.
TBH I only know of what he looks like, his name and that Hillary Clinton meme. Outside of that I know nothing about him or why he's so popular
Yo where the new GPUs and CPUs bois y'all be lying
true, im still waiting
soon™
I was trying to build a PC but geek squad over here told me to wait
AKA everyone here
If you still have a working machine, I'd still say wait. Especially since it's so much closer now
Unless you're able to afford to upgrade every year or two. Then there's not much to hold out for
damn you don't think thats what everyone is doing right now
wouldn't the new stuff be sold out 😦
then still be waiting
See you made cornpuff mad
can one of yall get me one of the new gpu's and cpu's ill venmo lol
Just get highest tier stuff. Use for 5 years. I used to get top tier stuff at end of life from previous generation on the cheap. Use 8-10 years
I was using an athlon 3200+ until 2016. Then i upgraded to threadripper 1950x
@bright shard TechSource due to his fake giveaways and how he faked a robbery?
Interesting, ill look into it.
If you live in the US, consider sign the petition against EARN IT Act: https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/campaigns/oppose-earn-it-act/
So
I put my new HDD in, but it is not showing up? I supplied it with power from the PSU and put it in the "SATA 2" in my MOBO.
Have you looked in Device Manager?
Is this what I am looking for?
YOu need to initialize your HDD young padawan 🙂
type in windows bar "computer managment"
then go to disk managment or whatever it's called
you will see your disk that are in use by windows as blue, and the one you got will be black and probably unformatted
right click: create new partition or whatever it's called
choose and GPT not MBR if you can
select GPT (MBR only detects disk's up to 2TB. GPT is newer, MBR is very old)
👍
make quick format
not the normal one
else you gonna wait hours
What's the difference to choosing a quick versus a normal formatting?
@abstract kite may need to assign the drive a letter
right click on it
the difference of them is:
Would it be called "System"?
Change Drive Letter it should be called
do it on the long bar, not where it says DIsk 1
quick format:
THe files on the disk (if there were any) will still be there, but the HDD pretends it's empty and new files will just overwrite the old ones
formatting:
everything that was on the disk will be erased with 0 so there won't be any data left. That's good if you want to give this disk to someone etc. It's not super secure, you still can maybe recover files but much harder
yes go to Disk 1, click on the black bar where it says unallocated
right click "format"
don't do it on system 🙂
when formatting, choose quick format
When I right click on Disk one is does not give me a format button.
you did format it 
this is disk, this you can ignore
a bit right of it, is the black bar where it says 1863.00GB and Unallocated
"New simple volume" it's called then
All the other options are just RAID options.
yep
yep, press yes yes
well read it quickly
you probably can now define the partitions
like if you want a 2TB disk or if you want to make it a 1TB + 1TB and so on
My Main Drive is "C" would putting this drive to say A affect anything?
It can be technically anything.
THis is a 2TB Disk
it's not good practice to assign disks to lower than C
A is reserved to floppy disks :p
B idk what it could be
yep that's great
there is some programs, probably old ones which may get mad if a drive is on A: but today it surely would work
just to be safe
yup, can also "do not format" but it doesn't matter
you can name your drive as well
else yo ucan do that in "Computer" window
right click on the drive
cri's
I don't exactly know why
It's because of the way bytes are calculated.
I should sue
And they would say the drive technically has a capacity of 2,000,381,014,016 bytes and then take all your money in court and lawyer fees.
Until they interlace the drives, of course.
Alright. Now I need to know how to move items over to the new drive
Such as Steam and all my games
It would depend on the game.
Really?
Some games do their addressing weirdly, or are allocated to other places on other drives, or on the same drive, but requires that association to stay the same. When it come to steam, you can reinstall them onto a install folder on the new drive, and that should always work, when it comes to external games, if they are self-contained, it should work. When it comes to games with installers, it might work, but it isn't certain
steam has an easy option
at work pc so i can't navigate but you first have to define a new steam gaming library somewhere in the options
then you can right click on the game and go to properties or press "Move files"
i don't know how it will work with other games that are not installed by steam
most of those DRM's have surely a similar technique
yep just a tad annoying if you have many games you want to move
I'll move them as I gp
Not all at once
But my D Drive is now my default install folder
Thank you guys!
np, have fun 🙂
new server arrived. not sure i can wait til I'm done working to start setting it up
Haha
true, let us know how it goes
She is a bute
3600XT
6 cores, 3.8 ghz, not bad.
Yeah, and I think there was some other minor extras, adding to the nicer bonus
"Discrete Graphics Card Required"
Its a 3600X using a better silicon, a more refined 7nm process If you will and boosting 100mhz higher
Came just now, was way earlier than I thought it was going to be
Motherboard hasn’t come yet though
A little bit disappointing it didn't, but I totally don't mind
Supposed to be coming on Friday
Which thankfully is tomorrow
So it won't be sitting useless for too long, aside from the RAM haha
3900xt not allowed to show
Well I'll just assume they didn't allow it to be shown off just yet then
all these ryzens makes me want to do my new build now
Haha
I'm just about like
Mostly done with upgrading it lol
I was originally planning to get a 3600, but I'm not one of those yearly upgraders
And the RAM is 32GB DDR4-3200MHz CAS16
Was pretty neat a deal imo
yeah my main rig is hitting 6 years, so i am planning my new build next year. only thing i have been updating is my gpu, which is all i need on my main rig
Considering before it was about 140$
thats nice, i am glad that prices are going back to better prices for SSD and ram
yeah, well we can only hope that will be the price of a 5Tb in a year here
In a year? That seems kinda short
Unless the price changed drastically over a year for SSD, I don't think that's the case
lol yeah more dreaming, but probs closer to 3 years
I guess
Didn't see too big of a difference compared with the GTX 1000 vs RTX 2000/Super
Except RTX
Sure, the performance has been better over time, but the 1080 Ti is pretty much between a 2070 Super and a 2080 without RTX
Might even pass 2080 if you're gonna overclock it
The 12 TB HDD's I buy dropped $30 in price. nice
Only disappointment is I still do not have my AM4 stuff for my DRP4
It went poof gone, so the DRP4 is useless when I finally get the motherboard, cause it just chills in my 7700K with fucking 70-83 celsius for unknown reasons. Perhaps not good installing or the paste gone shit
Choosing the monitor is gonna be uhh
Something
I'll just have to think of grabbing a 1080p 144Hz, a 1440p 144hz, or a 1080p 240Hz
Well I'll just assume they didn't allow it to be shown off just yet then
@fleet canopy
I was too lazy to show it at the shelf. Is massive
kek
Nice @proper wren
this'll be fun. going to be re-ip'ing about 15 servers
What is the recommended program to open .7z files with?
Do I download the 19.00 or the 20.00 Alpha version?
im runnin 19
#gtfo-technical-support Might do more good than this channel
Shit my bad, thank you
It's alright
this'll be fun. going to be re-ip'ing about 15 servers
@void perch he said it'd be fun too
yeah.. somehow all networking broke. like I can ping my gateway and esxi vmkernel nic but can't ping externally
oh did i mention that ipv6 works, ipv4 doesn't even though basically everywhere i've turned off ipv6? yeah, fun times
Think it'll be down all night iirc he did say he was ERPing with them so he's getting that Robutt as we speak.
not as soon as i wished
Oh yeah the server thing
it shouldn't only taken like 30-60 min tops
like swapping a couple values on the modem and vm server, then pushing to each of the servers
Alright since the hot is down it's anarchy now.
but like somehow that broke.. everything
Muppy, grab the suppressors and throw them into #gtfo-chat. The normies won't know what to do with them and hiss at them, making them scatter.
We'll use that channel for our next stage of attack. Don't let the Mods know.
understood, won't tell the mods
Think their on to us. 🤔
but wait i'm admin not mod. doesn't count
so.. that fun project from 10 hours ago.. yeah finally finished. ended up having to redo the entire networking infrastructure, but was able to get it setup in a better way that i originally wanted to months ago.
Nice
thats awsome, now you dont have to stress about upgrading your network later to where its at now
yeah. now for next project: setting up proxmox, and migrating VM's over
@void perch Sorry for the tagging. But what's your personal specs? It sounds very powerful from the sounds of it.
personal as in my actual desktop, the two servers? everything in my network?
The actual desktop you use.
The desktop is pretty weak. (that's 48 GB of RAM)
Entire infra wise... Here's every network device connected
No GPU? What a non-gamer smh
I'm actually a little surprised by the specs, I thought they would be more powerful for the server and everything (pardon my ignorance, I don't know anything about the how servers work and all that).
The servers are:
First: 10 cores per CPU, 2x CPU's Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2660 v3 @ 2.60GHz | 192 GB RAM | 1x 2 TB SSD for databases, 4 TB in RAID 1 for the boot and some drives. 30 TB in raid 5 for most OS's
Second: 12 cores per CPU, 2x CPU's Xeon E5-2690 V3 - 2.60GHz | 192 GB RAM | 8x 1 TB SSD's for most VM's
Oh, the desktop/dev rig GPU
Oz, the i5 is my desktop/gaming machine. The servers are a lot more powerful
4 database servers, 2 tool servers, 2 bot servers, 2 load balancing servers, 2 web servers (half for production, half for dev)
a media server
minecraft server
plus some room for expanse of some other projects up my sleeves
D0c packing some seriously big stuff 💪💪
That's how it feels every time Microsoft pushes out a Windows update prematurely.
Same with AMD drivers
Do you need PC parts? Well look no further message me what you want I can get you a quote and go from there.
I can help you get relatively cheap Pc parts and ship it right to you!
Message me with your inquires and ill get back to you!


Hmm
Would it be a good idea to test if my computer could run say two games at once?
I believe it can depending on the game.
I don't believe I can run two Triple A Titles, but maybe Say Metro Exodus and Final Fantasy 14.
Or would I risk damaging my system?
Uh it wouldn't cause damage, but why would you even do that?
I mean maaaaybe it could be done if you set both games to low
That way there won't be an issue with the games trying to utilize the VRAM of the graphics card
Reason being is I play 14 and sit in a thing called "Party Finder" I run a crafting/trading business on there, however, while I am in Party Finder I cannot do other actions, but sit there and wait for someone to DM me asking for my prices, so I would be on another game playing that while I wait.
I see, well then most likely there shouldn't be an issue of the GPU being utilized fully while in this party finder then?
Well not that I would know, you would have to check that.
I would just turn my graphics down while I sit there.
IF anything it would render character models coming in and out.
Uh
🤔
I am drinking that dumbfuck juice atm
That's a 10 in the 4 chief, rocking a solid 3head at the moment. Perfectly understandable 
Just play minesweeper or Tetris
I will go boil pizza while I wait, Muppy.
Hmm yeah it might just be worth running a light game instead
I don't know if you're an Oldschool Runescape kind of guy, but that's the perfect side game. 
I remember when I use to play on a laptop the thing froze while I was playing on low settings. The Laptop wouldnt come on for around 25 minutes, it didn't run as well as it did before said crash.
lel
I was only playing on one game xD
You wouldn't have the screen space most likely even if it has the resources
I didn't do anything I think, but you're welcome I guess 
You did though...
At least you're not waiting for your motherboard to arrive after having about two days not checking on the delivery and seeing that it was cancelled for some reason so you have to wait some more
Remember when my PC was not coming on due to RAM needeing to be reseated?
At least I was able to get the motherboard I planned originally
Actually, no I don't recall
You, Wooza and muppy sat there for like 6 hours helping me xD
I'm getting old, even if I'm not technically old. 
lel
Lies
20 years old ;-;
That's not old
That is prime Zoomer
20 years old
Either way, guys I am really grateful at all the help you have given me over the past year-ish I have been here.
You're welcome :)
Boomer age lets go
lel
So 6 minutes ago, and a case to review for them
Boomer is after WW2
Babies born during the time right after WW2 ended
Actually its anyone born between 55 and late '60s
Boomer is an insult for anyone really
But honestly they're just kinda ruining the word at this point and it's oversaturated, a dull insult
Uh its a dumb meme used a pejorative for anyone that is older than... I dunno early 20s?
Or its a mindset?
I don't give a shit its dumb 
lol yeah
I mean its a Strix card
And it confirms that there will be a 3080ti
Which I've been hearing they're gonna be using Samsung's 8nm for sure on the consumer cards
Looks pretty nice
And definitely better than a fan on both sides
if you can use the effects of fans on both side perfectly fine somehow
Well at least this confirms that the dual sided fan design isn't necessary
Yea, I'm happy that it won't be necessary.
This means that I can just get an aftermarket card and be done with it
Coreteks isn't happy after making that speculation video about the co-processor potentially being on the back of the PCB 
LUL
Well I mean I don't know how he actually feels about it, but seeing as the leaked strix model existing being a usual design that confirms it isn't the case
And the back fan is probably just cooling the memory or something
hmm
Maybe they just have some PCBs that offer both chips on one side and the other PCB having one on both sides?
I suppose anything's possible
That could be a possibility yea
Big PCB, 3 fans, don't see how it's not possible
As I link the GamersNexus review
But it looks pretty neat
Shitload of airflow for 69.99$
ATX and EATX support, liquid cooling which I assume is AIO
2 front RGB bigass fans intake, one non-rgb exhaust in the back
Front are 200mm each
360mm radiator support on front, 280mm radiator on top
That's what happened with the Meshify C
Oof
Well it's still better than the same exact case for 150$
Yeah, still hoping for a 3090, but alas
3080 Ti then
Since there's a good chance theres gonna be a 3080ti then what's the difference between that and a 0390?
3090*
?
Yeah but for gaming, probably gonna be useless
Ah
3090 is also only a rumor, more or less - as they rumored 2090,
but yeah
Oooh
I mean dual gpu won't be that useful as Gay said
Okay
For workstation, it can prove something perhaps
Yeah
People have dual 2070 Supers for work stuff
THat makes sence
a 3000 titan or something could be cool 😛
There is going to be a Titan
If I'd build my 3990x machine for VMS
dual GPU would be splendid
but new tech is fun nonetheless
not that I need new tech, but that is usually never the case for me
@dense wasp Sorry for the tag on the almighty lord. But what's your specs for your personal PC?
I think it was a 3950X, 2080 Ti, 32GB of DDR4-3200MHz CAS16
smh, wait for zen 3
4990X : )
Looking forward to waiting more on my motherboard
lol
And why's that
lel
Maybe I'll grab a 3070 Super if I do get the chance
Or if I decide to
But eh
Maybe not, but eh
I think the Super was just to make up for the shitty release of RTX 2000
yeah, saame
But honestly introduced some good GPUs
Like the 2070 Super
I'll just wait for some more time, grab a 5700X and a 5700XT
: )
Wait
owo
ahhhh shit
Hahaha
the 5700xt will probably be shit by then tho
probably be gddr7 and some shit like that
Someone's gonna do it
low key excited for ddr5
Not excited for DDR5
What?
I'm not expecting it to be good from launch
Too expensive, probably gonna shit with drivers or whatever
I'll be excited for it when it's good
Wasn't the Super pretty neat on launch?
When am I gonna get my light saber?
Never
f
I have been told a 1050ti is bad but it seems cheap as hell? Is this a bad investment?
