You mean most of the senators and representatives who don't know how Facebook work?

restive garnet
#

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?"

fleet canopy
#

Hm.

#

I wonder.

restive garnet
#

"I'm not sure of the answer to that question"

#

just a polite way of saying wtf are you on about cunt

fleet canopy
#

Hah

torn ferry
#

What is the worst statement from a representative or senator who claims to know how the internet or computers work?

fleet canopy
#

Was the whole facebook thing just a bum thing or was there actually some significance to it?

restive garnet
#

im trying to find my favorite one atm, cant remember what it is tho

#

iirc, that was after the whole cambridge analytica thing

fleet canopy
#

"S-surprise mechanics"

restive garnet
#

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

fleet canopy
#

Don't be

#

A robot doesn't have feelings.

#

I'm honestly surprised he looks like one

restive garnet
#

but a lizard does

vapid crypt
restive garnet
#

lets be real, hes a lizard person

fleet canopy
#

lmao

vapid crypt
#

Certainly slimy and squirmy like one phaWesker

fleet canopy
#

Mm

restive garnet
#

"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

torn ferry
#

Any more dumb statements?

restive garnet
#

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

fleet canopy
#

What part of the government was she?

restive garnet
#

foreign affairs, defence, and trade

fleet canopy
#

Well then it shouldn't be classified, no?

#

Except it was direct to the public buuuuuuuuuuuut

restive garnet
#

yes and no

fleet canopy
#

It's just a submarine

#

It go underwater

#

brrrrr

#

Go boom with rocket

restive garnet
#

they were state of the art submarines, by australian standards

fleet canopy
#

Ah

earnest rose
#

rip

restive garnet
#

iirc she was asking about how long they can stay submerged

#

and the admiral she was interviewing is like wtf

fleet canopy
#

Ah this is just one of the "I don't clearly know what they are" things

restive garnet
#

very much so

#

i just love the interjection part way through of "you dont get to decide whats classified"

fleet canopy
#

"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

ashen nimbus
#

nice, new servers are always fun. whats your plans.

void perch
#

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

fleet canopy
#

hnnnngh

ashen nimbus
#

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.

void perch
#

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.

ashen nimbus
#

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?

void perch
#

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.

ashen nimbus
#

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.

void perch
#

damn, what are the specs of the 740? they are really solid machines.

ashen nimbus
#

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.

void perch
#

that's not bad

ashen nimbus
#

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

void perch
#

mine's a nice space heater...

ashen nimbus
#

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)

void perch
ashen nimbus
#

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

void perch
#

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

ashen nimbus
#

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

void perch
#

I'm only using the 11 out of 13 static IP's I have already, but with the new server I'll need more.

ashen nimbus
#

i hate talking to isp about this stuff, never easy

void perch
#

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

ashen nimbus
#

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.

void perch
#

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

ashen nimbus
#

yeah i end up putting it in the corner more then likely. have you made and modifications to the case you own?

#

rack case

void perch
#

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

ashen nimbus
#

nice, well i got to run. ttyl

late sorrel
#

doc, did you snort the rgb powder again

void perch
#

noyet

#

but I am engaging in 53% water

late sorrel
#

oh no

#

this early too?

void perch
#

it's 6 pm

#

and i'm on call tomorrow at 8 am, so making most of my last night for the next week

late sorrel
#

smh

#

fair enough though

void perch
#

my secretary is aware and told me to be responsible

lilac geyser
#

what are you on call for?

void perch
#

work

late sorrel
#

you had better drink some 99.97%water afterwards tho

fleet canopy
#

His robot certification

void perch
#

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

lilac geyser
void perch
#

i think your gfx card might be having issues

lilac geyser
#

just discord

late sorrel
#

your graphics card is having some issues

lilac geyser
#

nope just discord

late sorrel
#

check your drivers just in case?

proper wren
#

Mmm D0c using Ubiquiti networking

late sorrel
void perch
#

uniquiti is love. ubuquity is life

proper wren
#

Too bad the store sells it as special order

lilac geyser
#

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

proper wren
#

9900k suddenly $679 when it was onlt $600 last week hmmm

late sorrel
#

huh

#

the more you know

lilac geyser
#

linux distros still call it amd64, even if you are using an intel chip

fleet canopy
#

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

thin kayak
#

anyone know about the discord screen share? been having audio issues. as in there is none

abstract kite
#

for some reason audio usually only works when you share the specific application and not the entire screen

torn ferry
#

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.

eternal cairn
#

Try quitting Steam and relaunching it.

old patrol
#

What happend yo your mod role

eternal cairn
#

Personal reasons. Didn't have enough time to do stuff.

#

School, namely.

old patrol
#

Oof

torn ferry
#

I tried that and it didn't work.

eternal cairn
#

Try verifying the game files through Steam.

#

Right click the game > Properties... > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Files

torn ferry
#

That too didn't work.

eternal cairn
#

Is it showing up in Task Manager when you click the Play button?

torn ferry
#

No.

eternal cairn
#

Do you have any antivirus installed?

torn ferry
#

Bitdefender.

eternal cairn
#

Try disabling it and then relaunching the game.

torn ferry
#

Should I add it as an exception?

eternal cairn
#

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.

torn ferry
#

And when I try to open the exe directly, it says I am missing a dll called MSVCR120

eternal cairn
#

Oh, it sounds like you're missing Visual C++.

torn ferry
#

Which one do I get?

bright shard
#

c++ runtime.

eternal cairn
#

I would just try uninstalling and reinstalling the game so it prompts you with the correct version you need.

torn ferry
#

I tried that already.

torn ferry
#

It worked.

lilac geyser
#

payday2 and gtfo are the same game

#

carry bags of money/dead babies

#

open doors with drills/scans

fleet canopy
#

GTFO is just a different kind of uhh

#

Way to do it really

lilac geyser
#

keep cops/sleepers from killing you

fleet canopy
#

Unlike WW2

#

lol

lilac geyser
#

literally the same

fleet canopy
#

Yeah but the gameplay is very different

lime lagoon
#

they aren't exactly the same

fleet canopy
#

Payday 2, you have like miles of ammo everywhere, so much running, hyper shit

lime lagoon
#

skill points to invest in

lilac geyser
#

i'm just waiting for the update that forces john wick into a spacesuit as a playable character

fleet canopy
#

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"

lilac geyser
#

wait, are you telling me they literally arent the same game?

lime lagoon
#

yes

fleet canopy
#

They are not in like

#

A lot of ways

vapid crypt
#

Its certainly more nuanced than described

fleet canopy
#

But you kind of see a tiny relevance to Payday in a way

#

But really, it's just

lilac geyser
#

no no no, they have to be, both have sentry guns

fleet canopy
#

Much more slow paced, going guns blazing is just suicide, and you really have to plan and do teamwork

lilac geyser
#

and sneaking around

#

and trip mines

fleet canopy
#

Yes but it's much slower paced

vapid crypt
#

Though I'll admit, I would love a Payday tie in where it turns out The Warden is actually Bain phaWesker

fleet canopy
#

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

lime lagoon
#

"guys the neonate, go get it"

fleet canopy
#

hah

lilac geyser
#

yeah, i swear i heard that

vapid crypt
#

It would be the perfect April Fools event

#

At the very least

fleet canopy
#

"Guys, the drill. Go get it."

lime lagoon
#

they just port over all the Payday 2 voice lines

fleet canopy
#

Let's see

#

What else

vapid crypt
#

Not needed when we have Bain himself already

fleet canopy
#

Absolutely

vapid crypt
#

Simon Viklund is Bain if you didn't already know

lilac geyser
#

"your not going to last much longer with all those sleepers around"

lime lagoon
#

when are we gonna be able to take sleepers as hostages

fleet canopy
#

Where's the body bag?

lime lagoon
#

and "be careful with sleepers around, it gets expensive real fast"

fleet canopy
#

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

lime lagoon
#

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

fleet canopy
#

Yeah

vapid crypt
#

A rare grenade wouldn't hurt things too badly I think

fleet canopy
#

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

lilac geyser
#

you have proven my point

lime lagoon
#

your point of what?

lilac geyser
#

someone even suggested you get your own cell (safehouse) to customize in game-suggestions

fleet canopy
#

Hah

#

Really?

lime lagoon
#

that doesn't mean payday and GTFO are the same

bright shard
#

tbh, i'd like if the trip mine item had a larger range than the regular mines.

lilac geyser
#

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

fleet canopy
#

It's supposed to be weak anyways I guess

vapid crypt
#

All that says is there are people that want similar features from Payday

fleet canopy
#

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

lime lagoon
#

like an air cannon or something

lilac geyser
#

i want to see the stack of money in my cell from past expeditions

fleet canopy
#

A whole vault of it

#

In a small container

#

lol

#

Holding 3 million roubles

lime lagoon
#

I wonder if the prisoners even get paid

bright shard
#

i'd like completing the rundown to give you a sandbox area where you can spawn things.

fleet canopy
#

I honestly believe they're Russian prisoners tbh

vapid crypt
#

Russian?

fleet canopy
#

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

lime lagoon
#

I'd like something like a sandbox, but it shouldn't be unlocked for completing the rundown

fleet canopy
#

What does Russia not have?

vapid crypt
#

I don't recall reading anything about the lore than involved Russians

fleet canopy
#

There's nothing on anything not English so it's kinda meh

#

But still a neat environment nonethless

eternal cairn
lilac geyser
#

too bad your're not a mod anymore...

vapid crypt
#

It is, I was gonna mention that this shouldn't turn into GTFO chat but PirateSimon

fleet canopy
#

Meh

lilac geyser
#

srry nazo, cheap shot

lime lagoon
#

I only just realised that

lilac geyser
#

but how much time does being a mod here really require?

eternal cairn
#

I genuinely thought Discord bugged out and I was actually in #gtfo-chat. LOL

fleet canopy
#

There's no time to being a mod

#

Just "Hi, join mod if you want"

vapid crypt
#

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

lilac geyser
#

i meant from earlier when nazo said he didnt have the tim eto be a mod anymore

#

how much time is actually expected

eternal cairn
#

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.

vapid crypt
#

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

eternal cairn
#

Yeah, but for AMD to beat Nvidia, they have beat whatever their new GPUs are by that margin.

vapid crypt
#

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

lilac geyser
#

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

vapid crypt
#

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

eternal cairn
#

I know, but I'm just saying that's what needs to happen.

vapid crypt
#

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

fleet canopy
#

Haha, probablyt

Fish tank thing

late sorrel

if electric go zappt sappy

abstract kite
#

Dump a server in there and have the ocean dissipate heat.

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

fleet canopy
#

Basically used water, with something else to make it non conductive

late sorrel
#

yeah, that’s possible

#

and is a good idea

proper wren
#

B550 finally arrived in BC Canada doggopeek

fleet canopy
#

neat

abstract kite
#

Let us know how it is, @proper wren .

bright shard
#

anyone know why the settings panel is greyed out?

vapid crypt
#

Yes, that's compatibility mode settings

#

You have to enable compatibility mode first

bright shard
#

but im able to do it to other executables without setting compatability mode

restive garnet
#

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

bright shard
#

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.

restive garnet
#

pretty much

#

both are fairly impractical short term, let alone long term

bright shard
#

iirc there was a special oil that could be used, and was long term stable, but man, it was probably pretty expensive

restive garnet
#

yeah, and also begs the question of "why?"

bright shard
#

the answer would be "because"

restive garnet
#

i used to know a guy who had a submerged comp, built out of parts that didnt work

bright shard
#

a game hit that with me once, i felt betrayed.

restive garnet
#

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

bright shard
#

man, imagine if you didnt bench the build before submerging.

restive garnet
#

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

bright shard
#

wait, so he built it expressly for the purpose of display?

restive garnet
#

more or less

#

one of his clients gave him a bunch of outdated parts that didnt really work

bright shard
#

shoulda just used DI water.

restive garnet
#

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

better if you tell us what temps you normally have (for games that may be as demanding as GTFO)

mint beacon
#

Anyone think its worth to upgrade from a 2070 super to a 3070 super when it comes out?

fleet canopy
#

Well, honestly not really

#

Only if it's not performing how you would like it to

vapid crypt
#

^

#

So from what we know

fleet canopy
#

If it does 1080p 144/240 or 1440p 144hz well for you, then I don't think it would matter so much

vapid crypt
#

The 3070 will likely be on par with the 2080ti, at least within 5% of one in terms of game performance

mint beacon
#

Also thinking of upgrading to 4700x when it comes out from my 9700k

fleet canopy
#

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

vapid crypt
#

Actually that will not exist, they're relegating that to the 4700G

#

Which is coming out next week I think

fleet canopy
#

A 4700G? Hm

vapid crypt
#

Its a Zen 2 APU

fleet canopy
#

So for laptops?

#

Actually no

#

That'd be for H

vapid crypt
#

No its a desktop apu

#

Its Renoir

fleet canopy
#

So why an APU?

mint beacon
#

^

late sorrel
#

because laptops

vapid crypt
#

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

fleet canopy
#

So it will be a 4700G and a 4800X?

vapid crypt
#

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.

stable wyvern
#

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

vapid crypt
#

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.

dense wasp
#

Hm - would there be a big difference for a 2080ti to be put in the 4x PCIe lane, instead of the 16x?

fleet canopy
#

Well uhh

brisk badger
#

is it pcie 4.0?

fleet canopy
#

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

dense wasp
#

It just hit me today

fleet canopy
#

That it's on x8?

dense wasp
#

That I haven’t even checked what lane I’m using in my powerrig 😂

ornate ginkgo

@dense wasp 99,9%: If it'S the upper one it's 16x

fleet canopy
#

There's an updated

#

@fleet canopy what CPU did they use?

fleet canopy
#

The 1080 one, i7-5930K

ornate ginkgo
#

i see.

void perch
#

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.

fleet canopy
#

Pfft

void perch
fleet canopy
#

The Verge is 100% correct

ornate ginkgo
#

xD

void perch
#

So that sounds like anything above a PCIe x8 won't make a huge difference

fleet canopy
#

Any pcie lane is perfect, doesn't matter

#

Playing with a 2070 Super in the very bottom

void perch
#

So PCIe3 x8, x16, or PCIe4 x8 is fine

ornate ginkgo
#

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.

fleet canopy
#

Getting 40FPS in Metro Exodus with max graphics, RTX maxed

ornate ginkgo
#

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.

fleet canopy
#

4FPS, hm

ornate ginkgo
#

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

dense wasp
#

I’ll check where I have it to start with

ornate ginkgo
#

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

fleet canopy
#

The what?

lilac geyser
#

the important part is to use the pcie lanes that are connected to the cpu, not the chipset lanes

ornate ginkgo
#

wait, that still exists nowadays?

fleet canopy
#

What do ya mean safety cap???

ornate ginkgo
#

@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.

lilac geyser
#

dust caps

fleet canopy
#

Oh

#

Yeah

#

Soooo

ornate ginkgo
#

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.

merry bay
#

I don't see anything wrong with keeping those dust caps in. Cleaner ports that aren't used is a win in my book.

lilac geyser
#

it's bad when all the gpu ports are covered XD

ornate ginkgo
#

@merry bay yes, but not if you use the on board GPU instead of the GPU

#

x3

merry bay
#

Ah right, it was such a big mistake I assumed it's impossible Jebaited

fleet canopy
#

I once did that, mainly when I had to move my PC

#

: )

ornate ginkgo
#

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"

dense wasp
#

ah ok, my board had 2x PCIe 16x

#

and I was one of them

vapid crypt
#

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

lilac geyser
#

do the cpus have 2x pcie 16x though?

dense wasp
#

I have a 3950x, if that doesn't support it, I don't know what does 😛

vapid crypt
#

So how it works is the cpu will handle a certain amount of PCIE lanes

#

The chipset will handle any extra

lilac geyser
#

the 3950 might, but not all cpus have that many

vapid crypt
#

So typically you get 20 - 24 lanes

lilac geyser
#

chipset provides the rest like demo said

vapid crypt
#

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 phaWesker

#

That's pretty cool

late sorrel
#

yeah, wasn’t that an issue with the 3980x

#

that it was basically an epyc chip sans the lanes

void perch
vapid crypt
#

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

lilac geyser
#

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

#

?

vapid crypt
#

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

lilac geyser
#

well what ever the configuration, the important part is the gfx card goes on cpu lanes

sick reef
#

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

lilac geyser
#

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

vapid crypt
#

Since the bandwidth is split between both PCIE slots when they're both used, it adds up

#

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.

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

Alright GPT

brisk badger

select GPT (MBR only detects disk's up to 2TB. GPT is newer, MBR is very old)

#

Change Drive Letter it should be called

#

do it on the long bar, not where it says DIsk 1

abstract kite
brisk badger
#

not system, go to unallocated bar

#

right click and format

abstract kite
#

Uhhh

#

Oh I see

#

The Black Bar that says "Disk 1"

brisk badger
#

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

abstract kite
#

When I right click on Disk one is does not give me a format button.

brisk badger
#

you clicked into the loooong black bar?

#

or where it says "Disk 1"

#

Here lemme send screen shot

probably "create partition" or something like that

Until they interlace the drives, of course.

abstract kite
#

Alright. Now I need to know how to move items over to the new drive

#

Such as Steam and all my games

sick reef
#

It would depend on the game.

abstract kite
#

Really?

sick reef
#

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

brisk badger
#

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

abstract kite
#

This seems pretty easy

brisk badger
#

yep just a tad annoying if you have many games you want to move

I'll move them as I gp

@void perch When bot alive

abstract kite
#

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.

void perch
#

not as soon as i wished

fleet canopy
#

Oh yeah the server thing

void perch
#

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

abstract kite
#

Alright since the hot is down it's anarchy now.

void perch
#

but like somehow that broke.. everything

abstract kite
#

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.

void perch
#

understood, won't tell the mods

abstract kite
#

Think their on to us. 🤔

void perch
#

but wait i'm admin not mod. doesn't count

abstract kite
#

Ah that's some big brain thinking right there.

#

Pft I think it's working.

void perch
#

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.

fleet canopy
#

Nice

ashen nimbus
#

thats awsome, now you dont have to stress about upgrading your network later to where its at now

void perch
#

yeah. now for next project: setting up proxmox, and migrating VM's over

abstract kite
#

@void perch Sorry for the tagging. But what's your personal specs? It sounds very powerful from the sounds of it.

void perch
#

personal as in my actual desktop, the two servers? everything in my network?

abstract kite
#

The actual desktop you use.

void perch
fleet canopy
#

No GPU? What a non-gamer smh

abstract kite
#

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).

void perch
#

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

#

Oz, the i5 is my desktop/gaming machine. The servers are a lot more powerful

abstract kite
#

That's a lottttt of storage...

#

And ram...

void perch
#

yeah it kinda is

#

i could still add another 192 GB of ram to EACH server if i wanted

abstract kite
#

What's the servers for?

#

ThF looks like a lot to handle.

fleet canopy
#

Server is to store D0c's movies

#

That's all it is for

void perch
#

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

fleet canopy
#

Wrong

#

Only movies

abstract kite
#

D0c packing some seriously big stuff 💪💪

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?

vapid crypt
#

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

abstract kite
#

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.

vapid crypt
#

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.

abstract kite
#

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

vapid crypt
#

That's a 10 in the 4 chief, rocking a solid 3head at the moment. Perfectly understandable PirateSimon

fleet canopy
#

Just play minesweeper or Tetris

abstract kite
#

I will go boil pizza while I wait, Muppy.

vapid crypt
#

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. phaSip

abstract kite
#

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.

fleet canopy
#

lel

abstract kite
#

I was only playing on one game xD

vapid crypt
#

You wouldn't have the screen space most likely even if it has the resources

abstract kite
#

I beefed up my rig though thanks to these people in here.

#

Luv you guys ;-;

vapid crypt
#

I didn't do anything I think, but you're welcome I guess phaAda

abstract kite
#

You did though...

fleet canopy
#

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

abstract kite
#

Remember when my PC was not coming on due to RAM needeing to be reseated?

fleet canopy
#

At least I was able to get the motherboard I planned originally

vapid crypt
#

Actually, no I don't recall

abstract kite
#

You, Wooza and muppy sat there for like 6 hours helping me xD

vapid crypt
#

I'm getting old, even if I'm not technically old. phaWesker

fleet canopy
#

lel

abstract kite
#

I am old

#

I am a boomer

fleet canopy
#

Lies

abstract kite
#

20 years old ;-;

fleet canopy
#

That's not old

vapid crypt
#

That is prime Zoomer

fleet canopy
#

20 years old

abstract kite
#

Either way, guys I am really grateful at all the help you have given me over the past year-ish I have been here.

fleet canopy
#

You're welcome :)

abstract kite
#

Boomer age lets go

fleet canopy
#

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

vapid crypt
#

Actually its anyone born between 55 and late '60s

fleet canopy
#

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

vapid crypt
#

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 phaWesker

fleet canopy
#

lol yeah

abstract kite
#

So what's yalls opinions on the Asus strix Ampere leak?

vapid crypt
#

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

fleet canopy
#

Looks pretty nice

#

And definitely better than a fan on both sides GWjianGodLUL if you can use the effects of fans on both side perfectly fine somehow

vapid crypt
#

Well at least this confirms that the dual sided fan design isn't necessary

abstract kite
#

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

vapid crypt
#

Coreteks isn't happy after making that speculation video about the co-processor potentially being on the back of the PCB phaWesker

abstract kite
#

LUL

vapid crypt
#

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

late sorrel
#

hmm

fleet canopy
#

Maybe they just have some PCBs that offer both chips on one side and the other PCB having one on both sides?

vapid crypt
#

I suppose anything's possible

abstract kite
#

That could be a possibility yea

fleet canopy
#

Big PCB, 3 fans, don't see how it's not possible

fleet canopy
#

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

vapid crypt
#

That's a $70 case? Seriously

#

Inb4 the price inflates to $90

fleet canopy
#

360mm radiator support on front, 280mm radiator on top

vapid crypt
#

That's what happened with the Meshify C

fleet canopy
#

Oof

vapid crypt
#

Its supposed to be a $75

#

But you constantly see it at $89 - $99

fleet canopy
#

Well it's still better than the same exact case for 150$

dense wasp
#

Yeah, still hoping for a 3090, but alas

fleet canopy
#

3080 Ti then

river thistle
#

Since there's a good chance theres gonna be a 3080ti then what's the difference between that and a 0390?

#

3090*

fleet canopy
#

Uh

#

3080 Ti a single GPU

#

3090 expected to be a dual gpu

river thistle
#

?

fleet canopy
#

In short

#

3090 not worth it

#

dual gpu is basically uhh

#

Two GPUs in one

river thistle
#

That's a good thing though right?

#

More performance

fleet canopy
#

Yeah but for gaming, probably gonna be useless

river thistle
#

Ah

dense wasp
#

3090 is also only a rumor, more or less - as they rumored 2090,
but yeah

river thistle
#

Oooh

dense wasp
#

I mean dual gpu won't be that useful as Gay said

river thistle
#

Okay

fleet canopy
#

For workstation, it can prove something perhaps

river thistle
#

Yeah

fleet canopy
#

People have dual 2070 Supers for work stuff

river thistle
#

THat makes sence

dense wasp
#

a 3000 titan or something could be cool 😛

fleet canopy
#

There is going to be a Titan

dense wasp
#

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

abstract kite
#

@dense wasp Sorry for the tag on the almighty lord. But what's your specs for your personal PC?

fleet canopy
#

I think it was a 3950X, 2080 Ti, 32GB of DDR4-3200MHz CAS16

dense wasp
#

yeah that's about right

#

double that Ram thou

late sorrel
#

smh, wait for zen 3

fleet canopy
#

4990X : )

late sorrel
#

looking forward to my 3070 build

#

literally only 3070 allowed in it

fleet canopy
#

Looking forward to waiting more on my motherboard

late sorrel
#

lol

fleet canopy
#

And why's that

late sorrel
#

3700x and a rtx 3070

#

funny

fleet canopy
#

lel

#

Maybe I'll grab a 3070 Super if I do get the chance

#

Or if I decide to

#

But eh

late sorrel
#

i don't think they will do super lineup

#

hmm

#

depends

fleet canopy
#

Maybe not, but eh

#

I think the Super was just to make up for the shitty release of RTX 2000

late sorrel
#

yeah, saame

fleet canopy
#

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

late sorrel
#

owo

fleet canopy
#

We're getting the 3000XT series

#

5700XT with 5700XT

late sorrel
#

ahhhh shit

fleet canopy
#

Hahaha

late sorrel
#

the 5700xt will probably be shit by then tho

fleet canopy
#

Meh

#

It'll be kek tho

late sorrel
#

probably be gddr7 and some shit like that

fleet canopy
#

Someone's gonna do it

late sorrel
#

low key excited for ddr5

fleet canopy
#

Not excited for DDR5

late sorrel
#

wow

#

0/10

fleet canopy
#

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

late sorrel
#

that's how everything is at launch

#

give it a year after and it'll be pog

fleet canopy
#

Wasn't the Super pretty neat on launch?

river thistle
#

When am I gonna get my light saber?

fleet canopy
#

Never

abstract kite
#

f

gentle oar
#

I have been told a 1050ti is bad but it seems cheap as hell? Is this a bad investment?

proper wren
#

yes

#

get a rx 570 8gb instead

#

rx 570 4gb works as well

#

if you're worried on power consumption go with ASUS and use gtx 1650
