[mortal grail]

technology can randomly die like that

it's a silent death

rarely a loud one lol

[surreal kernel]

lmao

[crude igloo]

Ok

[surreal kernel]

try your old ram stick on the 4th slot

ok

what confuses me is

why his old ram doesn't work

[crude igloo]

Ight

[mortal grail]

@crude igloo they should turn the pc over in a couple/few weeks and you'll get a new working one

alternatively

[surreal kernel]

and why one of the new ones doest work but one works

[mortal grail]

you could get a substitute board

if you don't want the hassle

[surreal kernel]

but now the other one doesnt work too

[crude igloo]

So replace it ?

[surreal kernel]

just ask them for a refund and pick something more reliable up

[potent vale]

clxgaming.com

[surreal kernel]

tbh

[mortal grail]

yea they'll fix it

[surreal kernel]

wth is a clx

[mortal grail]

but you can replace it urself if you want to

[potent vale]

true

[crude igloo]

How’d I do that

[mortal grail]

anything is an improvement over the prime b760 ngl

you'd take it probably about

40% apart

take the motherboard out

[surreal kernel]

he didn't even know what a gpu was

[mortal grail]

put the new one in

[surreal kernel]

probbaly not a good idea

[mortal grail]

put it back together

[surreal kernel]

man what I suggest

is to get a dull refund

and buy from another seller

or local

[sinful blade]

Newegg time

[potent vale]

easy stuff

[mortal grail]

faults can't be helped with prebuilts

it happens a lot

unless you pick them up yourself

[surreal kernel]

don't you guys have microcentre there

[surreal kernel]

my current pc is a prebhild

well

it was

I swapped everything

expect for the psu

[mortal grail]

a lot of prebuilts turn up fine

[surreal kernel]

it gave me a weird

[surreal kernel]

mine wasn't.

sometimes it wouldn't boot into windows

and it would get stuck into the motherboard manufactor logo

😭

[mortal grail]

but faults after time or in transport aren't really the fault of the people shipping it if they pack it properly

[crude igloo]

Ok so I return it and start looking for a new pc ?

[surreal kernel]

yes

[mortal grail]

I'd rma personally

and just wait for a swap

[surreal kernel]

tell the mf that build it that you will bomb his place

[surreal kernel]

no

why would he go through that hassle again

[mortal grail]

again?

[surreal kernel]

just buy your parts locally

[surreal kernel]

very high chance

[mortal grail]

wym again

[surreal kernel]

did the old stick work

[mortal grail]

he already rma'd?

[crude igloo]

No

[surreal kernel]

Damn

[crude igloo]

On the 4th

[mortal grail]

that's definitely a dead slot

3rd option here

try slots 1 and 3

slots 1 and 3 of your new ram

[surreal kernel]

both of them

[crude igloo]

With the new one ?

[surreal kernel]

yes

mew kit

[crude igloo]

Ok ok

[surreal kernel]

new

[mortal grail]

this is the great thing about having 4 slots

if you don't fill all 4

if one dies

you got a whole different 2 slots to use

[potent vale]

damn bays

[surreal kernel]

bays

[surreal kernel]

wouldn't it be slower

[crude igloo]

So I fill the 1st and 3rd

[mortal grail]

why would it be slower

yes 1st and 3rd from cpu

2nd and 4th are normally optimal for signal integrity

[potent vale]

all was 13-24

.

,

[surreal kernel]

bro talking to his demons

[mortal grail]

Ezekiel, 13-24

[potent vale]

bay 1,3 then bay 2,4

[crude igloo]

The 2 black polls are blocking it

[surreal kernel]

please introduce me to your plug bro

[mortal grail]

bad block?

or just a little

it kinda looks bad

[surreal kernel]

the tube is blocking it

[mortal grail]

yeah but sometimes the stick can squeeze in

if the block is a tiny bit

[crude igloo]

Sometimes so what if it can’t

[potent vale]

move the thing eith you hands

the seal is good

[mortal grail]

ever repasted a cpu?

you can flip the pump around doing that

[crude igloo]

No

[crude igloo]

Try turning it ?

[potent vale]

push just a little

[mortal grail]

uh it won't turn without taking it off

lol

alr

I'd just rma now

[potent vale]

right

[mortal grail]

I see a decent looking system there

is that a 4070+?

[crude igloo]

Wait I got it in

[mortal grail]

[crude igloo]

Turn it on or no

[mortal grail]

send pic first

pls

[crude igloo]

Ok

[potent vale]

push it out the way

[surreal kernel]

WHAT

😭😭

[crude igloo]

What

[mortal grail]

that doesn't look too bad

quite ok actually

try it

[surreal kernel]

it doesn't even look leveled

[potent vale]

move your ram over

[surreal kernel]

it looks like one is

more up

than the other one

unless his motherboard is like that

[mortal grail]

potentially yeah

[potent vale]

go 2,3

[surreal kernel]

which I don't think it is

[mortal grail]

as long as they're all the way in and the stick isn't horribly bent

[potent vale]

right

[surreal kernel]

that'd what I'm saying

jt doesn't look all the ah in

[mortal grail]

that looks in

[surreal kernel]

that's not in

[mortal grail]

and straight actually

[surreal kernel]

How

[elfin mural]

it looks straight to me too

[mortal grail]

the clip is in ye? @crude igloo

[surreal kernel]

can you send a side pic

please

[potent vale]

so whats the prob again

[surreal kernel]

remove the other ram

and send a side pic

[mortal grail]

no don't take any out wtf

LOL

[surreal kernel]

that doesn't look alright

😭😭

why is one taller than the other one

[elfin mural]

it looks level?

[surreal kernel]

or am I tripping

[mortal grail]

THE CLIPS ARE IN

STOP IT

[elfin mural]

you're tripping

[surreal kernel]

Ok

😭😭

[mortal grail]

is it working @crude igloo ?

[potent vale]

yap right side is up

[surreal kernel]

wait

does this motherboard have led indicators

for trouble shooting

[mortal grail]

probs not

it's cheapass prime

[potent vale]

yes

[crude igloo]

Still no signal 😃

[surreal kernel]

oh damn

send a pic of your

monitor

please

[crude igloo]

Ok

It on ?

[mortal grail]

justwarranty it lmao

oh it on?

working?

[surreal kernel]

wait what

[mortal grail]

it might take a minute to figure itself out

[potent vale]

wtf

[surreal kernel]

send me a pic of your monitor

[crude igloo]

No bro my monitor was always on

[surreal kernel]

of your screen

maybe it entered sleep

[crude igloo]

I’m trying to turn it rn

[surreal kernel]

Just try

but still it should post

udk

idk

[mortal grail]

if it doesn't work after this I'd just warranty claim

[potent vale]

shoot it

[surreal kernel]

oh yeah btw my cpu hit a whole 92c yesterday

on fortnite

😭

[potent vale]

thats a graph crad

[surreal kernel]

hmm

[mortal grail]

wraith cooler life

[surreal kernel]

What should I buy

I want my cpu to freeze

to death

[mortal grail]

if it doesn't pop up in the next couple minutes just warranty/rma/return

[potent vale]

nice

[mortal grail]

literally any single tower that has a 120mm fan

[surreal kernel]

second hand?

[surreal kernel]

idk what's a good one for the price

on this website

[mortal grail]

the cheapest you can find

[surreal kernel]

gjirafa50.al

[mortal grail]

you can do it lad

[potent vale]

.cal

[surreal kernel]

I was thinking for a articx

[mortal grail]

[surreal kernel]

idk

[mortal grail]

whatever is cheapest you can identify with a 120mm fan

literally any

[crude igloo]

And buy what I sent ?

[mortal grail]

it's a 5600

[mortal grail]

don't buy that

2000 cad ye?

[crude igloo]

Lmk

[mortal grail]

I'll make something for 1700-ish and you can match that via a good prebuild

for 2k

[crude igloo]

What website

[mortal grail]

any decent one

[surreal kernel]

I wana upgrade to a 5800x3d

[mortal grail]

newegg abs idk

[surreal kernel]

ibuypower

[crude igloo]

This good or no

[mortal grail]

@crude igloo https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/dQdtbL

[surreal kernel]

ooof

2k for a 4060

[mortal grail]

nah

try and find something similar to what I sent

[crude igloo]

Ok

[surreal kernel]

are those canadian dollars

[crude igloo]

Yes

[mortal grail]

4070 Super/7800XT/4070 TI/7900XT are near equivalent GPUs

to the GRE

[surreal kernel]

Felix if I upgrade to a 5800x3d what gpu do you recommend

[mortal grail]

if you can't find anything close, find a friend to build what I sent specifically

[mortal grail]

just about anything below 4080/XTX

with the right psu

[surreal kernel]

otcourse

ofcourse

what ab my current one

the 5600

the 6600 is not what I want

it's so bad

[mortal grail]

anything up to like, 6800xt

[crude igloo]

Ok

[mortal grail]

6600 is good

[surreal kernel]

not amd

please

[mortal grail]

what's wrong with amd

[surreal kernel]

I don't like it

bcs

It doesn't perform well

I get stutters on games I want to play

Yeah

[mortal grail]

well a used 3080 12gb

[surreal kernel]

you get me

[mortal grail]

that's as high as I'd go

[surreal kernel]

alrrr

ty

[mortal grail]

for 1080p, used 3060ti

no higher

nothing new on the low end from nvidia worth buying

[surreal kernel]

ima buya cooler and then case

then I'll look into the cpu and gpu

[mortal grail]

@crude igloo plan c

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BL4DCEp7blY&feature=youtu.be&themeRefresh=1

[surreal kernel]

I'm good for now I think

linus

😍

[mortal grail]

a build guide that would teach you how to make it from scratch

plus we're here

for questions

[surreal kernel]

mhm

[mortal grail]

you'll want a psu first

[surreal kernel]

I just realised the size difference between different manufacturers

[surreal kernel]

forgot 😭

it's fine for now

I'll get myself a cooler and a case

[surreal kernel]

my sapphire 6600 is way smaller than some asus one I saw

or msi I can't remember

[mortal grail]

the biggest is gigabyte

[surreal kernel]

giggabomb

(talks with a gigabyte board)

[wind quail]

Something like this would be pretty good
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/YdFppB

[sweet phoenix]

If budget could be stretched
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/Z9vvcH

Also I'd swap psu to this
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/nwbTwP/deepcool-pq-m-750-w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-r-pq750m-fa0b-us

[gritty forge]

Nuh uh

You want to buy it last

What if you decide to buy smth more powerful

Then you need to a get new psu

[wary fjord]

in that caase buy 5000w

[dire owl]

is anyone able to help me with a bluetooth issue
i have a B550M pro VDH mobo
but for some reason my pc wants to say my pc doesnt have any bluetooth compatability
when it worked before
and i dont see the bluetooth in the system manager

[wind quail]

Try reinstall the Bluetooth drivers from the motherboards website

[dire owl]

tried it

came up as no suitable drivers found

amd

intel

none worked

[wary fjord]

i hade this today

xD

[dire owl]

huh

[wary fjord]

what i did is to unplug my whole pc xD and press start button for 1 min.. and sleep for hours

and its back

[dire owl]

okey

[wary fjord]

for some reason this is so common

like wtf

[dire owl]

hmm

i shall try this in a bit

[wary fjord]

i even reinstall my os xD i still have the failed usb descriptor

and bluetooth is no where to be found

[rancid juniper]

good afternoon nerds

[wary fjord]

• uninstall that failed descriptor device at device manager
• turn off your pc
• unplug the pc even from ups
• drain capacitor by pressing power down 30s or more.
• probably do something fun in aday leave your pc alone. or sleep
• comeback my bluetooth is back ❤️

[dire owl]

alrighty

[dusk knot]

🤔

[gritty forge]

do someone know how to code in bash?

I kinda need urgent help

cuz this fkn script is getting into my nerves

[proud jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/bocchi-bocchi-the-rock-anime-mental-breakdown-on-floor-gif-27026753

[wary fjord]

haha u got it also?

xD

they just randomly not working one day that bluetooth and that error at device manager shows up

[chrome mirage]

Do you guys think there would be any benefit in overclocking a PC used as a media server

[proud jackal]

NO

[unreal trail]

imagine not getting 1000 FPS in Mario 2

[ancient swift]

You can run movies at 48 fps instead of the usual 24 fps /s

[chrome mirage]

It's a first gen i7 in there

[ancient swift]

Still no

Your bottleneck will be Sata and network speeds already tbh.

[chrome mirage]

I don't think wired gigabit will be bottlenecking it

[ancient swift]

And the fact that most media is only 24fps

[ancient swift]

Does your motherboard actually have a 1 gigabit connector?

[chrome mirage]

Yep

[ancient swift]

Then Sata is all that'll be playing catch up. You're fine.

You won't even notice it anyway. Because as I said.

Movies are usually 24fps

[gleaming sedge]

What would be better, running a server style computer or a normal computer? I would be using it to run a slightly modded minecraft server and my photo server and if lucky enough I can get my auto sorter coded and working

[dusk knot]

wegg ppl

[dusk knot]

ping a techie

[pliant berry]

Just use whatever computer you have. Advantages of servers would be ecc memory, ipmi type control, some are multi socket and have sas interfaces

[devout forum]

question

[gleaming sedge]

I'd like not to have my new pc running 24/7

[devout forum]

If a friend of mine (who may or may not be in this server) happened to buy an Aurora R15 with a 7950X and a 4090 against better advice
How mad would y'all be at them?

[pliant berry]

I mean it’s their choice ultimately

[gleaming sedge]

I mean it's their money so they can do whatever

[pliant berry]

Well servers are designed for 24/7 operation

[gleaming sedge]

Yes I know, you said to use the pc I already have and like I said I don't want that pc running 24/7

[pliant berry]

To manage that you can either manually turn off and on the pc or do scheduled shut downs and either manually turn on or use external interfaces like raspberry pi kvm to control the system remotely

[gleaming sedge]

Plus running the minecraft server off my personal pc could cause resource problems for me

[gleaming sedge]

I guess you just are not quite understanding what I'd like

[pliant berry]

I run a mc server on a ubuntu system through a docker app called crafty controller

[pliant berry]

No i don’t think i do. What are you asking for? A pc to run it out a way to run it

[gleaming sedge]

I work so when someone wants to play I might not be able to always go in remote into a pi and turn the computer and server on.

[pliant berry]

You want a way for them to turn on and off?

[gleaming sedge]

I would like to know if it would be better price wise to get a normal pc or a server to run a minecraft server that will need a decent cpu and a good amount of ram and also be able to run a photo auto sorter once I can get it coded

I just know the server running now through aternos with 2.5Gb of ram is not enough we need more ram at least but I don't want to be dealing with stupid expensive monthly payments for the server

[pliant berry]

I would just take a look at what is available used around you. I wouldn’t spend too much, 16 gb ram should do. I usually find office pcs people get rid of for cheap or less

Sometimes used servers can be cheaper but the electric cost might be a bit higher

[gleaming sedge]

Problem is most office pc has the ungodly awful pentiums and other ones Intel loves to put in them

I figure I'd look at used anyways though

[pliant berry]

Yeah it really depends oc the area. Most of my optiplexes have 4-8 core i3 or i5s i think my only pentium system is my router which is ancient hp desktop

Heck even used gaming pcs could be something

[gleaming sedge]

Most people want 700+ for them

[ancient swift]

O.o are you in AUS or Canada?

[gleaming sedge]

Usa

[pliant berry]

Bro what

I don’t have that in my calendar

[nocturne flicker]

Most of the more recently trashed office PCs avoid Pentiums in my experience, usually just i3s and i5s going back to Haswell

[worthy meteor]

Maybe your calendar follows someone else's calendar and it's from their calendar?

[ancient swift]

There's no way that people are selling them for 700$ o.O

You can get a Dell optiplex with an i5 7400 and 16gbs of ram for like 160$ or less for sure.

[nocturne flicker]

Yeah no, they don't go for $700 unless someone has done it up.

Heck, even some of the modern office PCs don't go that high.

[gleaming sedge]

I'm talking about gaming pc

[ancient swift]

You were talking about how you didn't want to get stuck with a Pentium before :p

[gleaming sedge]

The 700 dollar comment was to this

[nocturne flicker]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/335187107474

$130 even

Even has a dGPU. A decade old Quadro but a card none the less

[gleaming sedge]

Found this for 190. "Asrock B550M-C WiFi Motherboard Ryzen 7 5700 CPU and 16 GB of Ram XPG 3200
Everything works like new I just updated"

[ancient swift]

Would need to get a GPU, no igpu there

That's probably a reseller who took the GPU tbh. Or a scam.

[gleaming sedge]

Most probably are anyways

[pliant berry]

Yeah it’s a good price but no igpu

[nocturne flicker]

Office PC bois never scam, they'll send you the stuff, you are just always going to pay more than they did originally cause they got the stuff free.

[pliant berry]

Pretty much

[gleaming sedge]

Problem is I'm not in the center of a city so office pcs are not common

[mighty hazel]

I can get a 3080 12g aorus extreme for 650 new , is it worth it :pepehmmm:

[ancient swift]

No

[mighty hazel]

It’s the water cooled version

[ancient swift]

Still no

[mighty hazel]

Like there’s water block version and aio version both same price

[nocturne flicker]

No

[mighty hazel]

Werent those like 1 grand before💀

[ancient swift]

When they were new and modern

[mighty hazel]

It’s not like it’s a 5 year old gpu

[nocturne flicker]

Some 4070 super models are cheaper

[ancient swift]

650 could get you a 3090 if you need the or a 4070 super which would outperform it

[mighty hazel]

I wonder if I could resell it

[mighty hazel]

It’s brand new

[ancient swift]

We're telling you it's not worth 650 and you think you'll be able to make money off it?

[nocturne flicker]

And a 4070 super brand new goes as low as 590 on wegg

[mighty hazel]

The high end/ water cooled ones usually sell well on places like eBay

Ppl don’t know better ig

I’m not gonna rip em off but like 100 or so extra ain’t bad 💀

[ancient swift]

Literally not worth the hassle.

[gleaming sedge]

Yea not much for dells that are not some low tier i5 and 8gb of ram

[ancient swift]

Selling it for 100 or so more than 650$ is indeed a rip off

[mighty hazel]

Like I’ve seen people pay 1600 for evangelion and gundam 3090s

Even these days

On eBay

These

[ancient swift]

A lot of those to me just scream price inflation because I've also seen people buy regular 3080's for 1000+$ this year.

Coordinated buying and selling

[mighty hazel]

I mean I like overclocking and I already know those water cooled ones are usually better silicon

[ancient swift]

To artificially raise the "going rate"

Like look

Which looks like a legitimate auction to you?

[mighty hazel]

There’s also apparently binned 8086k’s for sale 199 for a 5.3ghz that’s kinda crazy

[ancient swift]

19 bids vs 1 bid

[mighty hazel]

Yikes

490 💀

[ancient swift]

and thats a 3080 ti. Not a 3080 12gb

[mighty hazel]

Prolly about the same but still I’d be losing money

[gleaming sedge]

Maybe I will just have to pay out like crazy to run the server with more ram and spend days sorting photos instead of having a computer to sort and copy for me

[cedar compass]

Lol idk why but I still driving like this

[chrome mirage]

What's a good cheap graphics card for video transcoding on a media server

[hoary zodiac]

I want to say 1650 low profile gddr6

But I don't know if there's any better options on intel's end

[pliant berry]

Some people like to use intel quicksync on their igpus for transcoding

[chrome mirage]

I have a first gen intel

[pliant berry]

Oh fancy

[chrome mirage]

Doesn't do transcoding

[chrome mirage]

I might just steal the 1660 Ti I put in my parents PC and throw a 1650 in there

[modern imp]

Uh the best option for that wouldn't even work...

A310/A310

Honestly you might be better off looking for a used 12100 or something

[chrome mirage]

So are you saying that the cpu won't let me even if I have a decent GPU because that's what I was fearing

[modern imp]

Low pcie bandwidth and you aren't getting rebar

Nahalem is pcie 2

[chrome mirage]

I read that someone got an A380 to do transcoding without rebar

[modern imp]

It hurts media engine performance a bit

About 25% iirc

[crude igloo]

Do I buy this

Is it good

[modern imp]

Hell even an N100 mini pc with QSV would be better than what you got now

[chrome mirage]

It was working fine for 4k without transcoding on Plex but I might just switch to using my main PC

[mighty hazel]

No 💀

[sinful blade]

No

Literally overpriced garbage lmao
Even I could build you something better

[ancient swift]

Same

[hoary zodiac]

I don't think 1st gen had QSV

[real locust]

brother thats 10 thousand dollars

[hoary zodiac]

Intel IGPUs are really efficient at transcoding

An intel CPU might be unironically cheaper than a gpu without being too inefficient

But to be fair you would need a new motherboard and ram

[sinful blade]

@crude igloo what type of aesthetic do you want
I’ll make you something nice

[chrome mirage]

No it doesn't. Is it possible to do the transcoding on just the GPU or do I have to use a different cpu either way

[pliant berry]

Yeah. There are charts somewhere with recommended gpus but I think at least pascal is go to since they support most video formats used

[hoary zodiac]

You can probably pick up a 1080 for quite cheap too

[hoary zodiac]

Even if you can it won't be efficient

QSV is what you want

At least for intel cpus

[chrome mirage]

I do have a 1660Ti I can steal from one of my PC's

[hoary zodiac]

That might be better than a 1080 tbh

Turing + GDDR6

[chrome mirage]

I just need something to fix the stuttering. I have a wired connection so I shouldn't have to do anything too crazy. I don't fully understand how transcoding works yet though.

[hoary zodiac]

Stuttering?

What's the current setup

[chrome mirage]

Plex just stutters a tiny bit and there was a setting I changed on my other PC that fixed it but it doesn't work on this one

[pliant berry]

For home streaming direct stream with no transcoding is ideal because it is very light to run and highest quality but in some cases you might need transcoding when streaming from a remote location and with limited bandwidth

[chrome mirage]

It only stutters when I use wifi though so I'm assuming the wifi is a bit too slow for direct

[pliant berry]

Also idk if you know already but plex requires plex pass to use hardware transcode

Sometimes I need to download their desktop app to get direct play working

[chrome mirage]

Yeah I know. I do want to use it on my living room tv as well which will require some transcoding since it's on wifi

[pliant berry]

I was gonna try my 980 for plex transcoding but idk if i want to pay for the pass yet

[dusk knot]

[gleaming sedge]

Wish minecraft servers did not cost a fortune to run because man this is getting old I either have to spend 400 to upgrade my pc so I have a spare gpu or spend that in just a server

[wary fjord]

do you have many players

[gleaming rivet]

Doordash CS is ridiculous.

[gleaming sedge]

6 or 7

[wary fjord]

and ur server specs?

[pliant berry]

Why would you need a spare gpu though?

[gleaming sedge]

my old pc does not have a igpu

[gleaming sedge]

all i know is the current one has 2.5Gb of ram

[wary fjord]

5 bucks for spare gpu

[hoary zodiac]

I ran a minecraft server on a sandy bridge i3 laptop

[wary fjord]

just for display

xD

[chrome mirage]

You can never have too many spare GPUs.

[hoary zodiac]

Selfhost is free

[pliant berry]

Ye you can get a gt 710 or something under 30usd

[pliant berry]

True true

[gleaming sedge]

well guess what not all of us do just plan bare bone vanilla, we have plugins and a few otherthings

[hoary zodiac]

I don't do vanilla

[chrome mirage]

I wish I didn't give away all my spare GPUs

[hoary zodiac]

I had a crap load of plugins

Were you running windows

[wary fjord]

what u mostly need in mc is is a good single core perf and tons of ram

[pliant berry]

Yeah literally the only thing that makes mc annoying to run is the ram usage. Server requires very little cpu and no gpu

[gleaming sedge]

its a aternos server i dont host it on my pc right now

[chrome mirage]

I spent 3 hours looking for a GPU yesterday and remembered I gave it to my grandpa

[hoary zodiac]

Unironically if you host it on your pc it won't even have much impact on performance

[pliant berry]

Take it back

[wary fjord]

grandpa playing mw3? xD

[hoary zodiac]

Unless you have actual mods

[pliant berry]

Sorry gramps i got work to do

[chrome mirage]

He needs it because the PC I built him doesn't have VGA and I couldn't afford to get him a new monitor

[pliant berry]

Smh

Bad planning

[chrome mirage]

I bet his cpu is a beast for transcoding though

[gleaming sedge]

even if so i dont want my 7800x3d running 24/7 i am not rich enough to afford that

[hoary zodiac]

You don't have to have it running 24/7

[gleaming sedge]

i do if people want to play

[wary fjord]

are u willing to buy a server tho

like cloud one

[hoary zodiac]

If you're already paying for server fees

Don't pay for it for a few months

Then get a used optiplex

[gleaming sedge]

im not paying for a server

[hoary zodiac]

Ok

[gleaming sedge]

aternos is free for base

[wary fjord]

if you have a phone u can host your minecraft there using termux

[hoary zodiac]

If you use aternos you can't keep it up anyways

Server turns off when inactive

[gleaming sedge]

most are about 2 hours away so meh

[hoary zodiac]

I mean

That's the cheap way of hosting it

[gleaming sedge]

no but i can if others are able to turn it on which they can

[pliant berry]

Then ebay, not as good a deal but there are plenty

[wary fjord]

if its hosted on aternos is not that seroius enough xD

[hoary zodiac]

If you can't be bothered than 🤷‍♂️

[wary fjord]

u can do mini pc ryzen

that cost 200 bucks

they cheap to operate

[gleaming sedge]

more like i have a job so i dont have the time to do that crappy trip

[wary fjord]

xD

[hoary zodiac]

ok

[gleaming sedge]

plus about 60 dollars in ram so say i bought a optiplex for 75 i spend 40 in gas plus more ram now almost to 200 dollars

[crude igloo]

Is this good ?

[pliant berry]

Tiny pc

[gleaming sedge]

nah i wont do ebay, i am way to unlucky to have anything go good with that site

[pliant berry]

You just come up with ways to make it impossible for yourself. Im saying it is possible and not nearly as hard as you often male it out to be. If anything it’s only a little patience required. Now im not saying that is the one to buy but its cheap and the seller has good reviews. No one can help you if you make it impossible for yourself

[gleaming sedge]

it will just have to be something that gets put on the back burner for a long time until i can find a better paying job

[mighty hazel]

2000 bucks geez 💀

[gleaming sedge]

if i found one of these and the seller did not list the ram amount could i find out how much it has without going to them or contacting them first?

they gave a photo of the back of it in the listing

[sinful blade]

Send it here

[misty sparrow]

The fact that you willingly wanted to see it

[sinful blade]

That is a lot of very Chinese writing

[misty sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/clueless-aware-twitch-forsen-emote-gif-25354609

[sinful blade]

@gleaming sedge send the listing of the actual thing

[pliant berry]

Could always look up the models but there is chance the ram had been removed

[sinful blade]

Also @pliant berry there’s an individual in #building-and-recc-chat that needs Canadian help

[gleaming sedge]

its marketplace so the location is with it so nah id rather not really

[sinful blade]

Send it in dms, I’ll keep it safe
Unless you’re not cool with that

Then don’t>:(

[gleaming sedge]

them two photos and them saying I5 Dell 3050 Optiplex is all that the listing was

[ancient swift]

Anyone gonna try it?

[misty sparrow]

the amount of Steam deck copycats on the market is just bordering on insanity

[crude igloo]

I’m a this good pc

[ancient swift]

Copycats?

Handheld PCs have been around for decades

[misty sparrow]

I know

But ever since Steam deck came out there’s a lot more of these things that copy what it does while not realizing why it is succeeding

[ancient swift]

Next thing you know Sony's gonna release a new Vaio handheld and you're gonna call it a steam deck copy cat.

[ancient swift]

There have been 3 newcomers in the major market. The Kickstarter handhelds aside from Tecno and TJD have all existed for years before valve

Did valve copy ayaneo or gpd?

[misty sparrow]

They essentially popularized what they did

[ancient swift]

They made it affordable. Which is what happens in tech

[misty sparrow]

But instead of running Windows like they did they instead used a Linux distro custom designed for it, and for a cheap price

Made it infinitely better

[ancient swift]

And?

[misty sparrow]

and since they popularized this stuff now we’ve seen major pc manufacturers dabble in this

with some varying degrees of success

[ancient swift]

They still haven't released (modern)steamOS publicly

[ancient swift]

And that's good for the market.

[misty sparrow]

It is good for the market

[crude igloo]

Is this good

[velvet summit]

https://youtu.be/tiytnwon4ZM?si=9ihqcOJDdIFye_h6

[icy ore]

[misty sparrow]

It’s good but where is this at

[velvet summit]

You have to say the price

[misty sparrow]

Don’t tell me it’s NZXT

[velvet summit]

It is nzxt

[crude igloo]

Yes

[misty sparrow]

If it’s NZXT they probably made it a stupidly high price

[crude igloo]

I’m in Canada and it’s 2.1

[misty sparrow]

2.1k CAD?

[velvet summit]

2.1k cad would be fine I think

[misty sparrow]

Oh that’s 1.5k that sounds fine actually

[crude igloo]

It’s 30% tax for everything

[velvet summit]

Damn you in Alberta?

[crude igloo]

Toronto

[velvet summit]

I forget which province has 30% sales

[crude igloo]

Ontario

[velvet summit]

???

Toronto Ontario has 15%

[crude igloo]

But is a good price for Canada ?

[velvet summit]

Is the price in caf

Cad

[crude igloo]

Yes

[velvet summit]

Hmm

It's preassembled right

[crude igloo]

What is bio bro

Cmon man I

[velvet summit]

LOL

[crude igloo]

Are you a a.i

[velvet summit]

a new hand touches the beacon

[crude igloo]

Is this good

[velvet summit]

I mean

Define good

Can it run every game you throw at it? Yes

[crude igloo]

Idk your tech person

[misty sparrow]

No longer cutting edge but it’s still viable

[velvet summit]

Wdym no longer cutting edge

It's never been cutting edge

[crude igloo]

@velvet summit

[velvet summit]

Well, asides from the cpu, for the consumer market

[crude igloo]

Lmk yes or no your go

[misty sparrow]

3000 series GPUs were basically the best you could get at the time but now that 4000 came out they’re sort of not on the cutting edge block

[velvet summit]

It's good enough to run any game you throw at it, but the price is just ok

[misty sparrow]

I know 3070 isn’t as powerful as 3080/90 but still

[velvet summit]

I wouldn't have called the 3070 cutting edge; that title would have belonged to the 3090

[lone mango]

He'll be good bro

[misty sparrow]

3rd most cutting edge

are we fine now?

[velvet summit]

Lmao

[misty sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/troll-troll-face-gif-25116980

[crude igloo]

Are you against NZXT because were In NewEgg Cord

[lone mango]

nah

[velvet summit]

No, I'm not saying that the brand is bad, I'm just saying the price isn't the best

Has nothing to do with the brand

[lone mango]

nzxt tax

because its like.. minimalist bro..

[crude igloo]

We’re do think I could get the same pc for a lower price

[sinful blade]

Nzxt tends to overprice

[velvet summit]

Depends on if you want a prebuilt or want to build the PC yourself

Generally you will get a better value from diy

Unless your time is worth $50/h

Or whatever

[crude igloo]

I don’t wanna build don’t it myself

[misty sparrow]

if you save a bunch of money would that convince you?

could use that money for a good purpose

[velvet summit]

You will save anywhere from $80-300 from diy pre tax

[gleaming sedge]

yep plus you would not get like just one stick of ram like a ton of prebuilt crap comes with

[misty sparrow]

The NZXT pc he listed actually comes with 2 sticks of 16GB

[gleaming sedge]

shocking

[misty sparrow]

Unless he wants that 3070 pc build he posted

idk

[velvet summit]

I think they just want to specs of that streamer or whatever

[crude igloo]

This one I built on Maxie

Nzxt

[lone mango]

That's pretty much the standard for ddr5. But basically he could put the saved money towards a 3080 instead of builder tax

[misty sparrow]

but anyway, I’ve seen people building pcs for the first time and it really isn’t that hard and it takes a short amount of time

maybe two hours at most and if you look at a tutorial it really is simple

[crude igloo]

Lmk lmk do I buy it rn or wait

Need your guys opinion

[misty sparrow]

really you should build this yourself instead of using NZXT

[lone mango]

Everything is standardized and a lot of info tailored to beginners

[velvet summit]

You can buy what you want but know that you aren't getting the best value for your money

[crude igloo]

So what you think I should do

[misty sparrow]

well it depends on if you want to build or not

[lone mango]

Well your code is stuck in a loop, so sure, buy it

[misty sparrow]

do you want to get the parts yourself and build it yourself

[lone mango]

He does not

[misty sparrow]

eh…okay then

[crude igloo]

Hell noo

[velvet summit]

Do not blame it on us if you regret your decision

[misty sparrow]

might as well do nzxt, just know you are getting an overpriced value

[crude igloo]

Oml I’ll break something

[lone mango]

No you wont

[crude igloo]

Imma still look around

[crude igloo]

So with the money Im spending what should that get me

[velvet summit]

Newegg's ABS line might have some better value

[crude igloo]

You have to remember I live in Canada

[velvet summit]

I also live in Toronto lmao

[dusk knot]

hm

[crude igloo]

You got a abs?

This good ?

[velvet summit]

Nah I built mine myself

[crude igloo]

ah

[gleaming sedge]

same

built my friends, rebuilt mine when replaced cooler, then built my new one

[velvet summit]

Lower end than nzxt, but... Hmm might be slightly worse value for this one actually

[crude igloo]

So with the 2.1 if I’m spending what should that get me since you said that not my value

[misty sparrow]

I think I should let the Canadian handle this one, don’t feel like converting to USD

[crude igloo]

My how much I’m I getting over price

By*

[velvet summit]

For the nzxt build? Uhh lemme calculate the number rq

Around $200 or so depending on what cost saving measures they take
Though honestly this isn't as terrible as I initially thought it is $2.1k cad for a prebuilt

[crude igloo]

This is the totally price

Forgot it was in USD

[velvet summit]

Oh

Then yeah then it is a bad value

[gleaming sedge]

odd question but if i had a mini pc in a small garden trailer and it had a roof over the trailer and the computer was running in it would it collect dew longs it was running?

[velvet summit]

In that case, that costs around... $500 more? Than if you diy

What applications are you going to use your PC for

[gleaming sedge]

me or Goodopinion?

[velvet summit]

Your cpu is way overkill for most people

[gleaming sedge]

oh ok

[velvet summit]

Goodopinion

[velvet summit]

Dew gets condensed from a temperature difference

If the PC remains warmer than ambient temperature, it probably won't condense

[gleaming sedge]

ok, that should not be to hard ideally but we shall see

[crude igloo]

Why are pc so difficult to find

[gleaming sedge]

i know im looking for OptiPlex 3050 Micro and can only really find one under 100

[velvet summit]

Technically, they aren't, but it's a bit more limited if you're only looking at prebuilts

What games/software are you going to run on it

If you don't need anything in particular

[crude igloo]

Fortnite

[velvet summit]

https://www.newegg.ca/abs-za13400f4060-zyklon-aqua/p/N82E16883360482?Item=N82E16883360482&Source=socialshare&cm_mmc=snc-social-_-sr-_-83-360-482-_-03032024
Pretty good value; should be enough

[velvet summit]

Only fortnite? If so, that cpu was way way way overkill in the nzxt build

[misty sparrow]

Just Fortnite?

[crude igloo]

Yeah

Just Fortnite

[misty sparrow]

why are you looking at $1000+ pcs then

A $250 Series S would do that fine

[gleaming sedge]

thats like me saying i built a ryzen 7 7800x3d computer just to play vanilla minecraft (main thing i play but i built it for photo editing)

[misty sparrow]

and it can even do mouse and keyboard on Fortnite

M&K support isn’t exclusive to PCs for games like Fortnite

[velvet summit]

My PC is more optimized for virtualization and video editing

I mainly play..... Youtube

I only just played a game today after 2 weeks of not gaming at all

And that was beat saber lol

Also I only played 2 levels on it because I needed to restart my PC, but I was too lazy to do it so i just put the headset back away

[gleaming sedge]

hey 343 think i should go for a OptiPlex 3050 Micro for 50?

its a bit of a drive

[velvet summit]

Hmm

$50 cad total price?

[lone mango]

Just hook up a kb to it

[gleaming sedge]

USD

[lone mango]

fr

[velvet summit]

Hmm.... Does that include shipping and or tax if applicable

Or any other fees

[gleaming sedge]

just gas for me to go and get it, its on marketplace

[velvet summit]

Hmm

You have a specific use planned for it? Ig it's worth it in that case

[gleaming sedge]

it will be one of the main parts to my B. S. N.

[gleaming sedge]

i will mainly use it for the astro computer and or running minecraft server but mainly astro computer

[crude igloo]

The good ?

[velvet summit]

Minimum and recommended specs? Also how much ram is included

[gleaming sedge]

they are not sure how much ram, and it does not need much just something better than a pentium, like stellrium is one, N.I.N.A and a few others

[velvet summit]

Hmm...
Still overkill cpu for your needs but the value is good enough ig

But it's cyber power and that has a reputation for terrible customer support and quality control

[crude igloo]

Wym quality control

[gleaming sedge]

it was either LTT or BitWit got a pc from them and the cpu was not plugged in

[velvet summit]

Assembly problems, broken parts/packaging mistakes, and more

If you ever buy a cyber power or such PC, buy it from Amazon and not the cyber power site

[crude igloo]

Are you only saying that cause it’s NewEgg cord

[velvet summit]

No

I'm not affiliated with Newegg in any way

[gleaming sedge]

please go watch videos on computers

[crude igloo]

Kk

[gleaming sedge]

if i need more i can thankfully upgrade it to 32gb

[velvet summit]

True

Though that's more cost

[gleaming sedge]

yea, thats cost is not to awful though at least since laptop ram

[velvet summit]

Probably would be cheaper with regular dimms

[nocturne flicker]

Laptop ram gets the laptop part tax

[gleaming sedge]

these dont take them unless i got a adapter

[velvet summit]

Though, you might be able to find someone trying to sell their old laptop ram for cheaper since there also prob a lower demand? Idk

Huh there's a AMD branch here

Just passed it

[nocturne flicker]

Then you have to worry about it being dumpster tier, most of the time stock ram is the cheapest thing the company could shove in

[velvet summit]

True

[nocturne flicker]

Like that thing a while back where they screwed around with something on the laptop ram to make it cheaper for them and it cut perf by 5% or something

[velvet summit]

💀

Though

Tbf you probably don't need very performant ram for an application like this

[gleaming sedge]

if the computer has a certain ram speed limit and i get 3200Mhz ram would it just slow down to run to what it can?

[nocturne flicker]

It was changing memory density, that was what they were messing with

[gleaming sedge]

its really tempting since id like a small powerful yet low power consuming computer to go in the garden trailer

[nocturne flicker]

Yes, it should auto adjust the ram frequency to the max compatible freq.

[gleaming sedge]

perfrect

[crude igloo]

Is this good

[gleaming sedge]

very

[sage sluice]

specs are hella

[gleaming sedge]

well spec wise

[sage sluice]

but what price

[gleaming sedge]

the 7800x3d is a beast, found that out running luminar

[crude igloo]

1600

[sinful blade]

Fr?

[sage sluice]

cpu is overkill for a 4070 super

[sinful blade]

I’ll take that for $1600 tbh

[crude igloo]

So what’s bad about it

[gleaming sedge]

||not me with a 1060 6gb paird with mine||

[sage sluice]

wait thats actually really good for 1600

[gleaming sedge]

from what i can tell nothing but i dont know the brand that built the pc so i cant say how it would go for that

[sage sluice]

not a bad price

is it prebuilt?

[sinful blade]

If it’s truly 1600 and they’re not shady, go for it.

[crude igloo]

Yeah it’s a pre built

Imma need a yes from all you guys before I buy it

[sinful blade]

Yes.

[sage sluice]

yes

i still think 7800 is overkill for that price

but

still yes

[sinful blade]

No need to upgrade it in the future tho

[sage sluice]

lol true

[shrewd owl]

Always remember life is tough. Just because it doesn’t seem to be working doesn’t mean you haven’t made progress. Just because people can’t see your kindness doesn’t mean you aren’t changing the world. Be proud of the changes you’re making and know that you can shape your life into something beautiful and amazing. Never give up on yourself. Never let the weight of your past drag you down. Keep looking forward to the future and know that you are never perfect but can still be better so aim to be the best version of yourself and work on yourself. Life is good ❤️

[sinful blade]

Go for it chief. @crude igloo

https://tenor.com/view/why-are-you-booing-me-im-right-gif-10368876

[sinful blade]

~~tbh, they only pop in once every few weeks, so that’s okay. ~~

@crude igloo let us know how purchasing goes.

[gleaming sedge]

so i could buy this OptiPlex 3050 Micro for 50, put a ssd or m.2 in it so i dont have to worry about the hard drive getting messed up while the pc is in the trailer, add some ram in it if i need to, mount it to the trailer and ideally the B. S. N. would plug into that and connect my house to the trailer

i still need to get the satilite dishes for the B. S. N. connection points

@velvet summit how much do you know about wifi antenna's? does the tip of them need to point to where the source is coming from?

[velvet summit]

Depends on antenna type, but if it's omnidirectional (most pc antennas) then they need to point straight up

[gleaming sedge]

pretty much this is what i was thinking for the B. S. N. and if i need to i can try to have one as a sending and receiving

[cedar compass]

weird combo but it works lol

[gleaming sedge]

suprised i found someone else actually doing this

[velvet summit]

Yes, dish antennas need to be pointing towards the RF source/receiver

[gleaming sedge]

yes i know that but that has a wifi antenna inside it which is the black part and thats what im hoping to do and if i have to if the wifi signal still cant reach ill add one that sends a wifi signal in that direction

[velvet summit]

That's not exactly how RF works

[gleaming sedge]

the wifi router is roughly 544ft away

[velvet summit]

You just need higher transmit power perhaps

[gleaming sedge]

so i need about 1k for this

[sinful blade]

[gleaming sedge]

so this wont work?

[velvet summit]

Idk what exactly you want to make your setup but it doesn't sound like it will work

[gleaming sedge]

going by how them dishes are shaped and made to work with a wireless signal they should kinda work the same with a wifi signal

[weak cedar]

sounds like using dish as a reciver for wifi

[gleaming sedge]

yes

well more like to try to focus it to one direction

[velvet summit]

Toilet paper weight

[velvet summit]

Oh then that should work

I thought you were trying to boost a RF signal with another RF signal

[sinful blade]

Shut

[gleaming sedge]

this is a very rough idea one what its supposed to be

[weak cedar]

i just dion't if there is a difference between a wifi vs direct tv channel. unless you gutted it all out

but to get longer range you need higher wattage and that i hage no clue how to do that

[gleaming sedge]

this very well might just be something i have to try and see if it will work or not

[weak cedar]

for example

[gleaming sedge]

if not then it looks like ill still be spending my nights in a field during the god awful winters

[gleaming sedge]

yea i already shared a photo of exactly what id like to do

[gleaming sedge]

here is it, the black thing is the wifi antenna they installed into it

[weak cedar]

ya

[velvet summit]

None, both are really basically the same

[weak cedar]

o ok

[velvet summit]

Maybe one is tuned for a certain frequency ig

Actually that might be the difference

[weak cedar]

that was what i was thinking

[velvet summit]

They should theoretically still be able to focus the signal, but maybe just not as effectively

[crude igloo]

How much frames would I get in Fortnite

[gleaming sedge]

so if nothing else it will be able to get me out into the field with the computer and remote into it with my computer inside ideally

[gleaming sedge]

yes, the answer is yes

a potatoe could pretty much run that

ideally i just have this

but that is way way way out of budget

[crude igloo]

Wym bro

that is a high spec computer running a mediocre game it will do just fine

[crude igloo]

How much frames will i get

[elfin mural]

that's a very specific question

you will get a smooth experience that's all i can say

well into hundreds range

[unreal trail]

👀

[sinful blade]

Enough to make you very happy

[velvet summit]

Enough that your skill will be the issue and not the pc

YOOOOO IT WORKED

[junior willow]

Price being no object, what are the best headphones for pc?

Gaming and music and such and whatnot

[spark halo]

Absolute best?

[junior willow]

Yuh huh

Like I'm not an audiophile or anything extreme like that

But like good mic and good sound? Idk much about headphones but I'm just curious

[spark halo]

Sennheiser for headphones, yeti for mic and then for an amp to actually use them go with focusrite amps

@junior willow

[junior willow]

Ok ok

Is it hard to set up amps

[spark halo]

[junior willow]

Ok

[pliant berry]

Q2u, solocast, or yeti nano would be better than a yeti id say

[spark halo]

I just generalized.

I could give him the very best of each of those brands.

[junior willow]

Ig really good headphones with built in mics don't exist then

[young matrix]

Gotta buy separately

[junior willow]

I doubt I have the desk space for it

Tbh my voids work fine as it is, I was just curious

[dusk knot]

hm'

[pliant berry]

Yeah not much for all in ones. I know audeze tries a few times at high end gaming headsets. They are in like 300-1000usd range though

[misty sparrow]

they use some kind of planar stuff for the sound right?

thats probably why they're expensive

[wary fjord]

🙂 its weird right?

[dire owl]

Fr

[dusk knot]

Computers am I right? Smh

[wary fjord]

XD yeah

[dusk knot]

[velvet summit]

They aren't headphones if they got a mic
They're a headset

Headphones = no mic
Headset = has mic

[junior willow]

my bad, i forgot to disclaim that my parents think im a failure

[velvet summit]

There are broadcaster headsets with very good mics but they do come at a cost

[junior willow]

Do Ryzen have generation

Cause this pc doesn’t say

[craggy shoal]

What 💀

[velvet summit]

Yes

[velvet summit]

The PC won't say

It will just say the model number

Intel CPUs don't say the generation specifically either

[fair tree]

I’m trying to sell my pc
Anyone know around how much I should sell it for?

Specs:
MAG B550M Mortar Wifi (MS-7C94
AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-Core
RAM 32G
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070
2 TB SSD
Case: Thermaltake (White)

[velvet summit]

If you want someone to actually buy it? Probably like.... $900?
You'll get more if you sell it piece by piece

Harder to find buyers of higher end used systems

Idk how the current market is but it might be either higher or lower

[crude igloo]

So how do it check

[icy obsidian]

anyone recognize this song

[pliant berry]

No clue

I'm willing to bet you 10 bucks I can fit a 6750 XT under 800
