You'll probably want to use Vsync to limit framerate to 165

#

So you don't have desync stutters

#

We all start somewhere

harsh oak
#

Oh so it will stutter if I don't put vsync on?

#

Interesting

devout forum
#

It might

#

Depends on how your monitor handles out of sync frames

wispy knot
#

With a 4090, you're basically going to get 250 fps at 1440p max or 250 fps at 4k max

harsh oak
#

Wheh that's an alien amount of fps to me

devout forum
#

Cuz the GPU shoves more frames on the monitor than the monitor can display so there's some desyncing

#

It's not ideal let's just say

wispy knot
devout forum
#

Oh yeah that's true

#

I keep forgetting about those because I don't have a monitor that has it kekw

harsh oak
#

Hm I didn't think too much fps would actually cause stuttering

wispy knot
#

That way if the 1% lows dip below the max refresh there's still no stutter

harsh oak
#

Same, I didn't even know Freesync/Gsync was a thing until now

#

Hey pop enough smokes and 'nades and any GPU will freak out

#

At least for 0.3 seconds

devout forum
#

Or just plant a million blocks of TNT and blow it up

harsh oak
#

Fair

wispy knot
#

Oh I used to love crashing my pc doing that

harsh oak
#

Or jump into the water and lose 50 fps

devout forum
#

Heh

harsh oak
#

It's so funny to see benchmarks of the Ryzen 1400 and GTX 1060 3gb and see people impressed with it

#

From 2016-2017 ish

wispy knot
#

It's funny that they used csgo to bench it and still did until recently

harsh oak
#

Like don't get me wrong, they're pretty good budget CPUs and GPUs but in 2024 ehhh

#

CSGO pff

#

You could run a toaster and get 100 fps

#

My 2011 Lenovo could probably still run it at 60 fps

devout forum
#

I got 42fps in CSGO with my i3-5005u and GTX 970M

wispy knot
#

I wonder how my dual core turion and radeon hd 4250 would do

devout forum
#

Or was it a 960M?

#

I don't even remember anymore

harsh oak
#

Lol I played EU4 on my old Lenovo H320 and I remember being shocked when I got my Skytech Shadow ll, I thought it was a big upgrade

#

And that had an Intel i5-650 and a Nvidia GeForce 310

#

Come to think of it....was $800 for a AMD Ryzen 1400, no SSD, and a GTX 1060 3gb kind of overpriced back in 2018?

wispy knot
#

A little, but not much

harsh oak
#

So kinda the same thing for an Alienware Aurora R15?

wispy knot
#

Yeah, you could do much worse

#

I've seen people build a $4000 PC and only get a 4070 ti 💀

#

The RGB makes it faster obv

swift sable
#

dont forget the 011 dynamic

harsh oak
#

Oh wow

#

So is $2900 for that prebuilt an OK deal?

#

Or still pretty bad?

wispy knot
#

The alienware? Still bad but for other reasons

harsh oak
#

The propietary part and the airflow parts?

wispy knot
#

Primarily yes

harsh oak
#

I mean the propietary idrc but

#

Yeah those were the top 2 complaints

#

For me it's too late cause' it's coming in tomorrow

wispy knot
#

They put a 13900k into one of those things with a 120mm AIO and it throttled so bad it lost to a 13700k

harsh oak
#

Damn ahaha

#

Definitely going to be more mindful in the future no doubt

wispy knot
#

When reviewers are saying things like "I've never seen anything worse than this"...

harsh oak
#

I never upgraded my old Skytech prebuilt though, and it was upgradeable

#

At least up until like 4 years ago

#

Might just sell it, idk

Dell has led the way in our latest prebuilt testing: The company has continually set new bars in prebuilt quality. For Dell, no bar is too low. The Alienware R10 takes us to new depths.

Dell currently has a sale on its Alienware R15 pre-built gaming PCs, so we decided to take another look. This is using the company's updated and refreshed design, but as far as refreshes go, the changes are relatively focused: It's all about the cooling. We were originally going ...

The Alienware R13 is easily the worst pre-built gaming PC we've ever reviewed. Dell manages to downclock an i9 to equal an i7 performance instead, yet charges $5000 for the PC.

Yeah.....

#

If I only I saw these like a month ago when I was shopping...ugh

#

Cause' initially I came here to just get advice for minor upgrades and then decided f it

#

But you guys are super helpful here and I appreciate everyone who answered my questions

devout forum
#

remember

#

if you ever have the money to spare

#

you can always take out the GPU from the Aurora and put it into the rig you built with the parts list I sent you

#

then slap a 4070 into the Aurora and use it for other stuff if you want to

harsh oak
devout forum
#

you technically can but

#

I'm not sure the Aurora's proprietary bios works with X3D chips

harsh oak
#

Yeah...idk

#

Do you think this R15 will poop the bed within a few years?

devout forum
#

eh

#

I'd expect it to work okay for the most part but it'll not be great and if/when it breaks you'll have a bad time @harsh oak

@harsh oak return it when you get it

That’s the best advice we can give

misty sparrow
#

don't be me and keep the alienware PC

#

i bought an alienware PC once and they blocked me from upgrading my CPU even though the motherboard could support 9th gen

#

so they could force people to buy the latest PC

Can we all agree Safari is worst browser ever?

#

I limit mine to 200 with a 13600k and 3060 ti, when I had it at 300 I was sitting around 280 iirc

dusk knot
#

I need 240fps

pliant berry
#

My go to browsers now are in order: arc, firefox, safari, chrome, edge

granite estuary
#

absolutely not

#

I limit to 144 anyway

#

But I just thought id be getting more than 200

pliant berry
#

Ehh once you go past 200-300 fps things get complicated and highly depend on the game. Most people don’t really need those numbers anyhow so I wouldn’t really worry about it

dusk knot
#

Hm

granite estuary
#

Yeah thats what I thought, I just thought Id get more but its whatever

mighty hazel
#

My friend gets more on a 1060

sweet phoenix
#

Also I'm not really sure about that. 1050 ti is the minimum recommended for 144 fps

granite estuary
#

it occasionally hits like 350 to 400 but instantly drops back down to the 200 range

damn 14900KS... I don't think I'm gonna replace 13900KS. $700 is a lot

#

I doubht the IMC is gonna be way better based on 13th v. 14th changes at least

#

my 13900KS is pretty disappointing tho. Can't even POST 8800mt/s

#

7800x3d is 1.4% faster in gaming

elfin mural

lol

dusk knot
#

Weak

idle nexus
#

1.4% difference is like binning difference anyway lol

#

I'd like to have it for hwbot & to roll the dice on silicon lottery again but that's hardly enough to justify throwing $700 at it

#

& I've tried to learn my lesson from the time I had two 12900Ks lol

#

the jump from 12th to 13th was kinda worth doing but 13th to 14th really wasn't

elfin mural

14900ks is that cpu that's the best tool for gullible gamers with too much money

dusk knot

idle nexus
#

lol the first step to fixing a problem is admitting you have a problem

#

if I got a 14900KS that's a crappy bin, I could end up with essentially the 13900KS I have already plus 200mhz increase on two cores

#

that would suck & the fact that it's even a possibility is reason enough not to gamble on it

elfin mural

it took me like

so we know device & monitor can support 120hz so guess that leaves us with the cable

I think you need HDMI 2.1 for xbox

serene hawk
#

Should I

#

🤷🏾

atomic current
#

well the same case with requiring 2.1 for an hdmi to hdmi cable would apply to the hdmi to dp

idle nexus
#

will a cable with DP 1.2 convert to HDMI 2.1 signal?

#

seems like it's easier to convert DP to HDMI but not sure how easy HDMI to DP is

atomic current
#

that's probably the way to go

idle nexus
#

HDMI 2.1 to DP 1.4 seems like it ought to work based on the specs in picture above

#

which I got from Dell/Alienware website

hdmi to hdmi so like

#

I guess you could get a converter box so you don't have to buy a whole cable

idle nexus
#

ya but the monitor doesn't support HDMI 2.1

#

so for high hz you need to connect to the Monitor's DP

idle nexus
atomic current
#

your monitor has hdmi 1.4 so it doesn't matter what the cable is unless you use dp

wary fjord
idle nexus
#

I mean, I could be wrong but seems like only DP will do >60hz based on that spec sheet

atomic current
#

if anything works, your options are converter cables/converter adapters

idle nexus
#

you can if you find HDMI to DP ya

#

cuz HDMI spec is too low I think

#

& xbox only supports 120hz using HDMI 2.1 spec ig?

atomic current
idle nexus
#

Hmm likelihood this actually bends correctly? I probably need to torch it first. I've heard filling it with sand & capping it helps it not kink. Guess I'll find out soon enough

atomic current
#

you want the language to specify hdmi output to dp input

#

so I would assume that doesn't work

worthy tapir
#

I got gengar instead

atomic current
#

hard to say but that might work

#

just make sure it's not "unidirectional"

lol guess not

didn't even hit 45 degrees before the pipe cracked

wary fjord
atomic current
#

hdmi 1.3

#

and looks like it requires dp source

idle nexus
#

heck I think I'm going to have to heat these pipes before bending for sure

#

I might try bending it at the 7/8" radius setting but my guess is it'll either be the same result or a pretty ugly bend

#

damn I got some Type L copper tubing cuz type M wall is really thick but seems like Type L is gonna break too easily

K-cup is what most people have because the machines and pods are pretty dirt cheap

Nespresso, the machines and pods are expensive, but honestly, basically like chain coffee shop quality; not the best coffee you'll have, but fine

Best quality coffee: self brewed or local cafe shop
Good quality coffee: most chain cafes, bean to cup, self brewed with preground coffee, Nespresso
Just coffee: basically every other pod coffee, some really old coffee beans or grounds

#

Oh yeah also instant coffee can be anywhere within that range

tranquil pebble
#

self brewed can be a wide range too

True

#

realistically all of them can have a wide range

I kinda want to experiment with different water sources to see how much it affects the coffee

thats what I figure... I suspect my tap water is doing just that... ruining the coffee

velvet summit
# mental yoke Coffee maker

im assuming that you want the convenience of a pod brewer, and also are just going to drink drip type of coffee
i can recommend the delonghi truebrew ($400 for plastic housing, $500 for stainless and plastic)
it's not the best cup of coffee, but will be better than your average k-cup coffee, and will cost less as well in the long run. and is just as convenient as a pod machine.

note that you will need to do maintenance and clean the machine occasionally, BUT you will need to do that with a pod machine, a regular manual coffee machine, or anything really.

I had two different models of the Keurig coffee makers. They all suck. So now I just bought me Black & Decker and hopefully that'll be good.

realistically, it's just the pods that kinda suck

mental yoke
#

Well whatever the case may be, for some reason when I put my black rifle coffee pods inside my keurigs, they make a sound as if it's trying to do something and then it shuts off entirely. It dispenses the water perfectly fine, but for some reason after 2 weeks of use, the coffee will not dispense and the machines turn off

#

And someone else from a different server told me that keurigs are complete and utter garbage, so there's that.

rancid juniper

let me solo her should be able to help

somber skiff
#

TL;DR RO filters dump a gallon down the drain for every gallon they supply to you, or something like that, but you remove 90% of the junk in the water through the RO membrane. Additional filter stages get rid of the rest before/after the RO filter, and optionally re-mineralize the water to not taste like DI.

chrome mirage
somber skiff
#

If you like the taste of dasani, you'll like RO.

chrome mirage
somber skiff
#

The benefit is that you only have to change the RO membrane once very many thousand gallons.

An RO membrane the size of an arizone ice tea with typical water pressure will give you 75 gallons/day

tranquil pebble
#

but it doesn't work on all Google search ads

#

Anyway, RO refers to one stage of that filtering process, you still need a sediment filter, one or two carbon filters before the RO membrane, then optionally post-filters and a re-mineralization filter to make the water taste good

tranquil pebble
#

yeah i don't think I can afford all that
