There are laws for this

[light egret]

Did you mean stalker? I've been trying to figure out why you just yelled out stocker.

like HOW DARE YOU STOCK THOSE SHELVES?!

[dusk knot]

LMAO

*Stalker

[light egret]

I was so confused 😂

[dusk knot]

If it means stocking the shelves at my job, they're all yours.

[light egret]

I'm good. I've done that job before. No thanks.

[dusk knot]

[rancid juniper]

Stocking Stocks

[light egret]

Is that what you do JP?

[dusk knot]

I work at retail so yes

😀

[light egret]

When I worked at michaels it was like a specific role who does that. So you had the stockers, the clerks, the fabric people, etc

[dusk knot]

I stock and help customers

And returns

[light egret]

As a stocker, all I did was stock shelves, unload trucks, and sometimes have to break down and rebuild those giant isle shelf thingies. I hated that last part the most

[dusk knot]

Sad

[light egret]

I'll never go back to retail lol

[dusk knot]

Never had to do that. The shifts responsible for constructing new product displays always looked miserable.

[dusk knot]

One thing for sure, never touching food service ever again.

I'm the typo man. You should know this

[light egret]

I would honestly prefer food, just not kitchen side, but also yeah I'm never going back to food either

[light egret]

I can't read typo speak. It's the biggest language bariar between my best friend and I. He typos religiously and I never know what he's saying.

[dusk knot]

LMAO

You should be about to fill mistakes

But I got you.

[light egret]

nah my brain don't work like that

[dusk knot]

Huhhh

I'll try to triple check my messages

[light egret]

I thought I was smart with computers but now I'm trying to study for A+ 🫠

[dusk knot]

Studying good

[light egret]

yeah but school was never my strong suit. I learn better by being thrown into the fire without any prior training and just figuring it out as I go

cause no one trains anymore

figuring out ipv4 subnetting almost broke me

[light egret]

nvm i don't have to subnet ipv6 🥳

[ancient swift]

For windows/Linux?

[rancid juniper]

no

[ancient swift]

Interesting

[wise geyser]

another hotfix

[rancid juniper]

👍

[wise geyser]

Looks like the team is actually listening so that's good to see them do it

[rancid juniper]

finally the game is going to be playable

[wise geyser]

Yea

[pliant berry]

I need to get that game

[wise geyser]

[proud jackal]

[wise geyser]

This game is too pretty to pass up on photo mode opportunities

[dusk knot]

Keep them coming

[pliant berry]

This is what aaa should look like

Not whatever crap aaaa game Ubisoft had

[wise geyser]

I was playing CP2077 and Witcher 3 to get some shots in photo mode, this is what gaming is to me now

[pliant berry]

Lol

[dusk knot]

CP2077 screenshots?

[chrome mirage]

If I get a 7900XTX do you think my 750W PSU would handle it. I currently have a 5800x3d as a processor.

[mortal grail]

Depends on the 750W and which XTX

But assuming you aren't volt modding the card and the psu is good, yes, should do

Unless you are a huge fan of RGB and have enough lights in the pc to fully decorate a full christmas tree

[chrome mirage]

I do have a lot of RGB. With my 2080Ti at the moment it hasn't even used 500 watts

[mild dew]

4080super would be safer

[chrome mirage]

I want to try an AMD card again.

Also I don't like the looks of any of the 40 series coolers

[elfin mural]

xtx is at least 100 cheaper than 4080s

24gb vram too, if you care about that a lot

[chrome mirage]

I'm looking at one with a massive cooler so it's around the same price as a lower end 4080. I want something future proof so the extra vram would be nice.

[mortal grail]

Well a PSU name would help me suggest what to do

[mortal grail]

@rancid juniper F1 messed up

Watch the way he turns, they destroyed the physics

[mighty hazel]

It performs the same

Games definetely don’t need over 16gb

By the time 16gb isn’t enough that gpu will be obsolete anyway

[elfin mural]

4080s is more money tho

no brainer to get the cheaper gpu

and vr eats up a heck ton of vram

[rancid juniper]

The fact that he actually got the wacky physics down is impressive ngl

Another codies L I guess

[mortal grail]

Logged on again to another episode of nvidia drivers failing

Swear with every update since Ada dropped they've gotten little by little worse

[storm narwhal]

They are also using ai to help make their drivers

So maybe that has an effect somehow

[mortal grail]

I really don't know

Since about, November, it's just got worse and worse on just Ada

[storm narwhal]

Yeah I'm just guessing I have no idea either

[mortal grail]

Like when Ada dropped, first drivers

Fantastic

[storm narwhal]

It does feel that way though

[mortal grail]

I'd say it was the best I ever experienced

Now? Horrible

I can just be watching youtube and the screen dies

It doesn't matter what I'm doing honestly

[storm narwhal]

Okay well mine hasn't gotten that bad

But it's definitely seen more issues that before

[mortal grail]

It just entropies and there's no indicator of it, I always check my data integrity

[storm narwhal]

At this point probably just a ddu each install is safer

[mortal grail]

Like I really like this card, but it just makes it hard to love this card

[mortal grail]

I've been doing this since November

[storm narwhal]

Jesus

[mortal grail]

Or December

[storm narwhal]

Yeah that's no good

[mortal grail]

I'm doing the same stuff I did on my 3090 and 3080

Those didn't die like this

[storm narwhal]

Wait ada is only 4000 right

[mortal grail]

Ye

[storm narwhal]

Oops

I'm still on 3000 loll

[mortal grail]

It's alright lol

[storm narwhal]

BUT I have still noticed some deterioration

[mortal grail]

I've heard other 4090 users having this problem as well

[storm narwhal]

My 3050 struggled to run crab champions the other night on all low

[mortal grail]

It's just so annoying cos I don't get any errors or warning

[storm narwhal]

ALL LOW

[mortal grail]

Not until it kills itself

[storm narwhal]

DUMB SILLY CRAB GAME TAKES NOTHING TO RENDER

Kept getting lag spikes lmao

[mortal grail]

It's not even a temperature problem either

[storm narwhal]

Nope

[mortal grail]

It's API from what I can tell

Like it starts with these tiny little stutters

Gets worse and worse

Until a hang

And I'm locked up for 5 minutes

Still hear sound so I know it's the vga driver dying

[storm narwhal]

I guess you could say

[storm narwhal]

The GPU got temporarily bricked

So would it be bricked up for 5 minutes

[mortal grail]

Have you seen the new brick

5090 Suprim concept

It looks like a cybertruck

[storm narwhal]

I have not

[mortal grail]

Speaking of bricks

Lol

[storm narwhal]

But it also happens I heard about the PCI slot that supports 180lbs

[mortal grail]

The wha

That's as heavy as me

[elfin mural]

what

[storm narwhal]

Rest an entire Chihuahua on that slot and it ain't going nowhere

[elfin mural]

able to carry a whole human?

felix gpu

[storm narwhal]

I think it was 180

[elfin mural]

F-RT

[storm narwhal]

I forgor already

I barely was listening LOL

[elfin mural]

Felix-Ray Tracing

[mortal grail]

I weigh like 13 chihuahuas

I also sound like 13 chihuahuas when my PC doesn't work as you can clearly see

[storm narwhal]

It could also have been a factor of 10 less

But who's counting?

[mortal grail]

I really should just retire the 4090 and go all in on XTX

Dual XTX sounds fun

And I have no video

Fantastic

Thanks jensen

Can't even DDU without the card fighting me

[rancid juniper]

SHINJI GET ON THE NVIDIA CARD SHINJI

[mortal grail]

I really am not exaggerating when I say this is closely approaching the most erroneous card I have ever owned

Not even early rdna 2 was this bad

Did it hang again????

Anyone got whiskey

[rancid juniper]

bro is getting bombarded with novideo errors

[mortal grail]

I was just having a leisurely night playing games for once

[rancid juniper]

hope it gets better or something

[mortal grail]

Suddenly dead

Suddenly this

IT'S LOADING WINDOWS AT THE SPEED OF MY GRANDMOTHER

[rancid juniper]

wtf

[mortal grail]

TURNTURNTURNTURN

[storm narwhal]

What

[mortal grail]

Keyboard off on off on off on

Wtf is this

[icy ore]

Xbox turn off

[mortal grail]

Oh btw guys, fun tip

You can install nvidia drivers, in safe mode

Uber stability hax 2024

[storm narwhal]

Truly an Xbox turn off moment

[mortal grail]

Like my cuda cores all became sentient and started rioting

Ok fresh install let's go

Safe mode SPEEEEDDD

Done

So much faster

Now I prayge

[craggy shoal]

lol what's the advantage of this other than if you need safe mode enabled for a different reason?

[mortal grail]

Loadingloadingloadingloadingloadingloading

[mortal grail]

It should be much more stable as you install it while using the windows default driver in entirety

It's not a flick over

[craggy shoal]

Oh gotcha

[mortal grail]

Drivers in general are a lot more stable the less they're interfered with

But I'm still trying it out on another pc (and now this one) so take it with a grain of salt

[storm narwhal]

It sounds reasonable enough

[craggy shoal]

I might try that with my AMD PC

[mortal grail]

Idk if amd installer allows it

That installer stops installing for strange reasons

[craggy shoal]

AMD drivers are strange in general tbh

[mortal grail]

Error 203 moment

[storm narwhal]

I mean you cant even open adrenalin if you have a game open

[mortal grail]

They're becoming less and less demented over the years tho

[storm narwhal]

Like what's up with that bruh

[craggy shoal]

Alt+R (I think) but even then it's just an overlay

[storm narwhal]

Yeahh

[craggy shoal]

Oh for sure

[mortal grail]

?

I can

[storm narwhal]

I've just set my AMD igpu to performance mode and left it tbh

[mortal grail]

I do it all the time

[storm narwhal]

Oh mine literally never loads if I have any game open

[craggy shoal]

Bro how

[storm narwhal]

It pops up the second the game closes

[mortal grail]

Wym how

It's always done that

[craggy shoal]

I always have to open it before I launch a game

[mortal grail]

On multiple PC's

[storm narwhal]

Nuh uh

[craggy shoal]

Nuh-uh

[storm narwhal]

Same as motor

[mortal grail]

????

[craggy shoal]

Felix is the chosen one

[mortal grail]

??????

[storm narwhal]

Bros got the Nvidia curse

We got the AMD curse

[mortal grail]

LOL

[storm narwhal]

This is the only explanation

[mortal grail]

I often open adrenalin on the 6900xt rig mid-game

XTX as well, not sure about the 680M though

I don't use that often enough

[storm narwhal]

Maybe its because it's an igpu with an Nvidia card

[mortal grail]

Ah

[storm narwhal]

5600H

[mortal grail]

Oh yeah that's why

[storm narwhal]

Ah gotcha

[mortal grail]

Cos when you flick over off the igpu, it changes enabled vga driver

My laptop does do that

But if you run igpu only it will let you open it

[craggy shoal]

Okay but for me it's with my 5600G and 6800 XT

[storm narwhal]

Wtf

[craggy shoal]

On a desktop

[storm narwhal]

HUH

[mortal grail]

Remember our conversation about focus'

[craggy shoal]

Did it when my 6800 XT was paired with my 13700K too

[mortal grail]

I got no answer for that one

💀

[craggy shoal]

Lolll

[mortal grail]

Cos you know, my XTX and 13900KS, let me do it just fine

[storm narwhal]

Guess only motor has the AMD curse

[mortal grail]

Also the 6900xt

All I can say is my condolences if a DDU doesn't fix it

[storm narwhal]

But unfortunately I can't run Minecraft with shaders on my igpu

It perishes

[craggy shoal]

Then send your condolences now because I’ve already tried that 💀

[storm narwhal]

⚡Send your condolences, NOW ⚡

[mortal grail]

Keep yourself safe my friend

NOW

Ok let's see if DDU fixed my issues

[storm narwhal]

Your life is worth something!!

What are you here for, to live a full life? Keep yourself safe, NOW

[mortal grail]

Broken again

bro i tried to run cs2 with my 7700 igpu and it blue screened

Bruh, only 28GB on the 5090? 😭

Couldn't even manage 36 GB

[mighty hazel]

It’s gonna be 32gb most likely

512 bit bus

[ancient swift]

I believe. Forza Horizon can do it xP

[rancid juniper]

Playground knows how to optimize tbh

However I do think KT can do the same

[ancient swift]

If it doesn't run on the deck, I have a Legion go and I can hope it runs there

Integer scaling really helps the Legion go hit that 1600p lol

@dusk knot @sour falcon Sony has leaked nearly an entire bungie dlc for the third time
Sony released a build of FS at midnight, so people were able to play. They leaked a lot.

If you don’t like spoilers, avoid Reddit and YT

[mortal grail]

I understand Sony kinda saved bungie from ruin but how many times have they ruined that studio now?

[sinful blade]

They have released dlc related stuff early 3 times now
They have routinely burned bungie over and over

Sony is such a garbage company

[paper verge]

Yo joker have you ever played with PICS?

[paper verge]

in general or just gaming space?

[sinful blade]

Both

They’re a scummy company

[paper verge]

hm why do you say that

[sinful blade]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony

Go to the part called criticism

And that’s just the big stuff

Not counting the hundreds of studios and games they’ve ruined via monetization, the DRM allegations, etc etc

this won't have any progression like tdu2

tdu2 wasn't the best but it actually had progression

Tdu2 was terrible vs tdu1

Do you remember the first 30 seconds of the game because I certainly do

I agree tdu2 is pretty bad vs 1 tho

But I don't see solar crown being as good as 2

Not at all

well, i probably might get the game when it goes way under 30

are you a honse blieve

[dusk knot]

Yeah..I saw some a few weeks ago

[chrome mirage]

Last night while I was half asleep someone told me it would be years until there's a game that uses 16gb of vram. There's already games that use 15gb at 4k.

[velvet summit]

Lmao

[paper verge]

LMFAO

[chrome mirage]

They said by the time games use 16gb the 7900xtx will be obsolete. I'm sure you can find a game now that uses over 16gb if you looked for one.

[paper verge]

minecraft with shaders uses 24gb smh

[ancient swift]

Modded Skyrim at 1440p ultra wide can go over 17gbs depending on your location lol

[dusk knot]

Imagine gaming in 4k

1440p till those monitors get cheaper

[sinful blade]

Anyone want a

It’s cheap guys I promise

[chrome mirage]

I have a 4k and 1440p monitor and use the 1440p one for gaming and the 4k for YouTube

[sinful blade]

How much would you sell a used ryzen 1600 for

[velvet summit]

People that are still using a rx570:

[dusk knot]

Very nice..I need sub $1k 4k OLED

One day.

Great upgrade

[chrome mirage]

My 4k and 1440p monitors were the same price so the panel in the 4k one isn't great

[dusk knot]

What do you have ?

[rancid juniper]

at that point, a 16gb gpu would be entry level

and 20gb+ gpus would be mainstream

[chrome mirage]

Asus tuf 4k, not sure what model but it's only 60hz. And my 1440p is a 180hz Alienware with really bad local dimming zones.

[rancid juniper]

That's tuf bro

[chrome mirage]

I was going to get an OLED monitor but I cheaped out.

For some reason the 4k monitor has something that looks like screen door effect.

[mortal grail]

Did we ever establish what psu is in this pc

[tranquil pebble]

bruh you can get a RTX 3060 for about that much

970 plus

[echo thistle]

mb

[mental yoke]

970 evo

not bad tho

And the motherboard too?!?

[worn wave]

yeah for 120 that's a good haul

[mental yoke]

2TB HDD.

some decent speakers too

[worn wave]

might depend on the motherboard but I think I see _90

[sinful blade]

GIB

[echo thistle]

never

[sinful blade]

[mental yoke]

Wait

Lemme blur out this mans name

[echo thistle]

already saw it :)))

[mental yoke]

That's better

I snagged both of those for a total of $230.

[worn wave]

wow

[echo thistle]

that's awesome

[worn wave]

is the 2060 dead or something?

[mental yoke]

No

I checked it

Thoroughly

[worn wave]

wait 230 for both of those postings?

[mental yoke]

Both

Yep

[worn wave]

holy

[mental yoke]

Plus I got left over pc parts from my old pc

I got a 256gb nvme, 2tb hdd, ryzen 5 3500 , 16gb ddr4

Plus dual monitors with mount I have no clue what to do with

Then recently snagged a gtx 1070 for $60.

[echo thistle]

how much did you pay for the second one?

[mental yoke]

The GPU or..?

[echo thistle]

no the case and 2060 and other thing

[mental yoke]

$150

[echo thistle]

wow

[mental yoke]

Ik where to find some good deals.

[echo thistle]

sick

[mental yoke]

Should I snag this too

[worn wave]

meh

[echo thistle]

corsair ram is bad

[velvet summit]

corsair ddr4*

ddr3 was good

ddr4 was mid-bad

[tranquil pebble]

Anyone know if Cyrix MII can run MS-DOS? Its roughly i586 class.

Not sure if its too new for it

[icy ore]

State of play hmmm

12 min

[weak cedar]

That reminds ill have to get ram for my laptop

It's the framework laptop 💀

[halcyon hamlet]

hello guys any of you knows any software to work with LIDAR and TUIO protocol

any information will be ver helpful

[worn wave]

Looks like tuio has a big list of softwares
https://www.tuio.org/?software

only lidar stuff I've done is polyscan on my phone so probably won't be of much other help

[ancient swift]

Interesting, not only is ZOTAC announcing a windows handheld but Adata is too.

O.o

[mild dew]

They are?

Give me a article

[rancid juniper]

everyone jumping the handheld bandwagon

guess its the new hot thing to get

[ancient swift]

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Adata-XPG-Nia-gaming-handheld-to-launch-alongside-Asus-ROG-Ally-X.842550.0.html

[rancid juniper]

wtf

[silver sparrow]

i got a wifi upgrade

its slightly better

[rancid juniper]

wow

[silver sparrow]

just a tad bit

[rancid juniper]

insane speeds

[silver sparrow]

finally got fiber loaded out here

[deep parcel]

I wish I had that fast of internet

but expensive

[elfin mural]

I downgraded in speed

[tranquil pebble]

Someone's giving me an old Alienware SFF system. Apparently just needs a boot drive and will work.

I'm saving it from remaining either unused entirely or being thrown away

[silver sparrow]

its super cheap out here cause it just rolled out like less than 50$ a month

[rancid juniper]

LOL

[rancid juniper]

same

[tranquil pebble]

AAA industry is in the toilet

[rancid juniper]

funny how the game he was talking about is AA

but yea these games are turd tier

[elfin mural]

It's a BBB industry now

[rancid juniper]

😂

[elfin mural]

Or even EEE

[tranquil pebble]

FFF

[rancid juniper]

every game needs a battlepass

you dont understand

its CRUCIAL

[elfin mural]

How about ZZZ

Because it's a snooze fest too

[rancid juniper]

just like today's playstation state of play

[elfin mural]

Imagine being able to skip 20 levels just cuz you paid more

[deep parcel]

How about that AAAA game everyone is playing still most definitely

[rancid juniper]

it gets worse

OMG this is hilarious

aint pc players for hell divers II revolted against this?

[tranquil pebble]

yeah they did

[silver sparrow]

Yoooooo ragnarok is coming to steam in september

[tranquil pebble]

PC players are pretty mad at Sony rn

not that they're happy with MS either after they shut down Tango

[rancid juniper]

oh wait its ineffective because playstation knew that Helldivers II players wont get mad at any other sony game ported to pc

[silver sparrow]

well thats why they are going to have future games come out with it on release

[rancid juniper]

they should've revolted for a bit longer tbh and declare that PSN is ridiculous

[silver sparrow]

the issue with helldivers 2 was that it did not come with it on launch

so people got mad

[elfin mural]

See this is why I was skeptical yet happy at the same time about sony

[rancid juniper]

yea but another problem with PSN is the limited countries

[elfin mural]

I knew they'd use PSN

[rancid juniper]

alot, and i mean ALOT of countries don't use PSN

[elfin mural]

ya

Which is wild

[rancid juniper]

so a good chunk of pc people are left out

[elfin mural]

lmao

[rancid juniper]

like how tf?

[elfin mural]

It's just an online service

[silver sparrow]

yeah, i wont deny that, but at least sony is going to be smarter this time and just break the news to peoples faces as soon as they can

[elfin mural]

Why should it be restricted

Literally just an account

[rancid juniper]

man, im tired

[silver sparrow]

yeah imo it shouldnt be in place in the first place

locking anything to their native platforms is horrible

[elfin mural]

Always online drm was the beginning of everything

[rancid juniper]

Bethesda's cursed horse armor is also a contributor

a terrible one at that

[tranquil pebble]

Watch them do the ultimate scumbag move and let people buy the game even if they can't play it because of PSN regions

[rancid juniper]

FOUL

[deep parcel]

yea, and helldivers 2 is still delisted in like 180 countries so people are still mad

[silver sparrow]

ubisoft is the main people i know for doing this stupid stuff

try to play watchdogs 2? better install ubisoft cause screw you

[tranquil pebble]

all these huge corps can go... do something I can't say here

[silver sparrow]

they can go eat a cactus

[rancid juniper]

everyday i wonder how these people make terrible ass decisions

and i thought i was the stupid one

[tranquil pebble]

I know someone who tells people they don't like to sit on a cactus lol

[tranquil pebble]

Its easy when you're an exec completely detached from everything but revenue streams

[rancid juniper]

i feel like for every company that exists needs to have an exec that knows their field

a game dev/programmer being ceo for example

[elfin mural]

And not becoming a public company

[rancid juniper]

that too

[tranquil pebble]

Some execs will even burn their own company to the ground chasing short term profits

[proud jackal]

🫠

[rancid juniper]

you want full control instead of some shareholders talking you down

its crazy

[tranquil pebble]

yeah shareholders seem to be a common problem

[elfin mural]

ye

[rancid juniper]

because they know that they themselves will reap all the profits while the rest suffer

and then move on to the next studio to burn down

trash cycle yo

[tranquil pebble]

An unsustainable cycle

[rancid juniper]

for sure

[elfin mural]

It's a spiral of doom

[rancid juniper]

when I saw test drive solar crown doing this a part of me just feel broken

like damn

[elfin mural]

Investors expect short term gains

[rancid juniper]

ive been waiting... for this?

[elfin mural]

Look at nvidia stocks

[rancid juniper]

skyrocketed because of AI

[tranquil pebble]

and at any cost sadly

[rancid juniper]

now the company is going full force on it

forgetting what they really are

[elfin mural]

All investors brag about long term gains

[tranquil pebble]

I feel like AMD is still moving in a good direction overall

[elfin mural]

But in actuality, they don't

All they want is gains

[rancid juniper]

for now... cant say much about the radeon department

[elfin mural]

Instant gains

[tranquil pebble]

and they want it now

[tranquil pebble]

Radeon iGPUs are dominating like always

[elfin mural]

with uh

[tranquil pebble]

780M for example

[elfin mural]

4070-class proposed perf

[rancid juniper]

fair

i do plan on getting a future amd handheld

[tranquil pebble]

Z1 Extreme iGPU will curbstomp most other iGPUs

[proud jackal]

Should i

[rancid juniper]

probably something like the 980m

who knows

RDNA 5 handhelds

[proud jackal]

[ancient swift]

Do it. Treat yourself

[tranquil pebble]

Radeon always was the best for iGPUs.

[proud jackal]

I was going to wait for the dual resolution OLED coming out

[tranquil pebble]

Radeon Xpress iGPU vs Intel GMA graphics was uh lets just say that it was a complete embarrassment for Intel

[sinful blade]

Any prebuilt you see will have a 5600g always

[tranquil pebble]

idk I saw one with an RTX 3050

[rancid juniper]

https://videocardz.com/newz/intels-next-gen-skymont-efficient-core-details-leak-out

intel?

EFFICIENT???

[tranquil pebble]

using a 5600g with that would be awful

[rancid juniper]

those two cant mix

hmmm

[ancient swift]

My test bench at work has a 7640x and I hate it

[safe lantern]

What chat do I go to if I have technical issues?

Gaming desktop related

[tranquil pebble]

Well, before Ryzen it was the opposite

Intel was more efficient

for a while

[rancid juniper]

true

cant deny that

[tranquil pebble]

Once Zen 2 came out, Intel knew they were in trouble

before that it was just Zen giving AMD hope

[icy ore]

hmm i woner

wonder

genuinely interested to see

[tranquil pebble]

Its a repeat of history though. Athlon 64 coming along and kicking Netburst hard lol

[rancid juniper]

interesting development

[tranquil pebble]

Pentium 4 vs Athlon/Turion especially in a laptop, one would want the AMD

[sinful blade]

Whatever you think is best

[tranquil pebble]

Bulldozer era was definitely AMD's darkest hour so to speak

It was bad enough to almost kill the company from what I've heard

[sinful blade]

I can’t scroll anywhere on Reddit without seeing an orange getting convicted

I mean, yay, but holy frick it’s annoying

[chrome mirage]

My job is going to be awful tonight. The school is full of kids and I think they are sleeping in the school. Nobody even told me.

[tranquil pebble]

annoying orange? /j ik what you really mean

[sinful blade]

yeah tbh

[safe lantern]

Well I’m not sure what Im dealing with yet

[sinful blade]

Then tell us in here

What’s the issue friendo

[safe lantern]

Off the top of anyone’s head have an idea of why my computer kept crashing on games? And just now my computer crashed and kept restarting but won’t go past ram on boot

I get the 3080 isn’t great but it should not be crashing on Diablo 4 on medium setting no?

[sinful blade]

@sweet phoenix @wispy knot

[safe lantern]

I’m currently taking it apart to clean it maybe add new thermal paste and stuff so

[elfin mural]

What's your psu?

And how did it crash

[safe lantern]

I’d make a pc partpicker list but yeah

[elfin mural]

Errors? BSODs? Or just straight cut of power?

[safe lantern]

Rog 850w

I didn’t get a blue screen this time but I have before

This one was just straight restart from after having the game running for about 2ish minutes.

[elfin mural]

That's definitely a short somewhere

[safe lantern]

I can take a couple photos for you to get a better picture

[elfin mural]

The psu is surely plenty good enough lol

I'd like a video if possible actually

[safe lantern]

Of the crashing?

[elfin mural]

Yep

[safe lantern]

Give me a little then

[elfin mural]

kk

[safe lantern]

Thank you by the way

[elfin mural]

It's no problem, I just like to try and help peeps in need of tek support

[weak cedar]

One of those days we'll it depends on the class 😅

[dusk knot]

Get 4k

[chrome mirage]

They are running into every room yelling rizz

[proud jackal]

🫠

[dusk knot]

You won't regret it.

Wait

[light egret]

why not 8k

[dusk knot]

8k is a gimmick

[light egret]

you're right. 16k or nothin

[dusk knot]

Even 16k

I see those resolutions only usable for VR or holograms

[light egret]

apparently 16k actually exist

huh.

theo get an 16k tv as your monitor

[dusk knot]

Or I forgot, very very large displays

No one here has money for that

https://fixupx.com/PicturesFoIder/status/1795719303519477987

[safe lantern]

well i tried to get a video of it crashing but i was playing for about 5 minuets and nothings happened, its happened before and i know itll happen again.

[elfin mural]

A pic works too if you're quick

Or just describe it, that's ok too

But from what you said before

I believe it's a short

This is something that may require a rebuild of your pc

Aka taking everything off and putting em all back in again

[safe lantern]

well i did just take out acouple cables and moved them around before you asked for a video, i didnt unplug anything other than the psu cable to the pc

[elfin mural]

Maybe try replugging gpu power cables too

If it's fixed itself like that, then carry on

Rebuild would be a pain

[safe lantern]

i will go ahead and re build my pc like you said is there anything else out of the ordinary i need to be worried about?

[elfin mural]

Not yet

It doesn't seem like anything bad to me

If there's a BSOD, I'd start figuring out the stop code

[safe lantern]

i mean i have time on my hands for the rebuild so im not to worried about that, probably good to get good cable management in

[elfin mural]

Shorts can happen for many reasons

Dust buildup, or connections getting loose over time from moving the pc around

Or it just, happens

Witnessed a couple people here going crazy over it

[safe lantern]

i try to full clean my fans every 3 weeks or so, i do tend to forget about the psu though.

I just dont have the knowlege to even diagnose what it could be at all, so i come here where I know people are smarter than me lol

[elfin mural]

Good point

[safe lantern]

Very apreciative of you help though i need to get another gpu and psu, I i play a lot of different games and games now are more demanding on gpus at the quality im looking for

[safe lantern]

Im going to make a pc part-picker list would anyone of you be able to give me some good recomendations?

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/KiriAkari/saved/#view=m7rfmG

White is the one Im using now, have yet to build mini

[tacit geode]

ok

so

having a 1440p, UW and 4k screws up windows

[atomic mist]

tell me more

[tacit geode]

the hdmi display kept black screening occasionally showing green flashes or randomly flashing

unlhooked the uw and all was resolved

[atomic mist]

huh alright

[tacit geode]

but what doesnt make sense

how the hell can linus and other people do the 3X UW

[elfin mural]

https://videocardz.com/newz/asus-and-gigabyte-launch-new-radeon-rx-6750-gre-graphics-cards

6700 rebranded

fun

[dusk knot]

Could be the wire.

[mild dew]

Looks like a new tuf design

[elfin mural]

https://videocardz.com/newz/directsr-super-resolution-now-available-single-api-enabling-fsr-xess-and-dlss

WOO

[tacit geode]

so it just magically works when removing the uw?

and it carries over all the hdmi's i have lol

[dusk knot]

Idk. Either your particular unit is damaged or the wire is faulty

[tacit geode]

but

why would it magically work without the UW?

lol

[sweet phoenix]

Gaming?

[safe lantern]

Yeah

My 3080 does well but I feel it’s not able to handle max on games unreal engine 5 and so on

[sweet phoenix]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/g3zYDZ

Case is up for personal preference

Psu can go for a white 1000w if you want, but very much overkill

[safe lantern]

Overkill how, is the 40 series just that much better?

And I suppose having a cpu that’s meant for gaming probably helps lmao

[velvet summit]

going from 3080 to 4080s isnt really worth it imo? i forget the exact perf increase but idk if it's worth the upgrade

also the overkill part is the psu not the gpu

1000w is overkill

[safe lantern]

Ah gotcha, thank you. I’ll do some thinking on it

[safe lantern]

I agree

[chrome mirage]

I did that to my sister once

[dusk knot]

That was real brothers do

👍

[chrome mirage]

I tried to impress my crush when I was 12 by doing donuts around her on an ATV. I just ended up scaring her.

[dusk knot]

Nooooooo

[mighty hazel]

You probably can

3080 is rlly powerful

If you’re at 4k tho.....maybe upgrade is good

[safe lantern]

I would like to be at 4k… 120fps I know it’ll be pricy but I’m thinking I might have to sell my current build and swap to ddr 5

[chrome mirage]

I'm allergic to my gloves at work and my hands are starting to look like a fallout ghoul

[light egret]

ask for reasonable accomodations in the form of gloves that wont make your hands melt off

[chrome mirage]

Probably going to get some whenever they do the next order. These gloves are very nice though.

[light egret]

are they disposable?

[chrome mirage]

Yes

The ones we used to get would rip before they were even put on.

[weak cedar]

Are they food gloves?

[light egret]

just cover your hands in slime first, theyll slide right in without breaking

when I worked in food, at one point I just started buying my own gloves cause the gloves they got were so bad lol.

[sinful blade]

If you’re getting rid of anything, let me know

[safe lantern]

I will keep you in my heart

Actually I have a bunch of lian li v1 white fans that I could part with they kinda just sit in a cabinet

[sinful blade]

I will accept any donations if you are willing

Also, I may have a new customer for a custom pc

$300 budget for them

[sinful blade]

[tranquil pebble]

idk... with stuff like EDF 6 and SMT V Vengeance... not easy

[rancid juniper]

competition will be tight

no doubt

also dont forget Metaphor from atlus

heheheh

[tranquil pebble]

we all know EDF is gonna be a blast because it always is

[rancid juniper]

fight off bugs to save humanity

[tranquil pebble]

with some of the most fun to use weapons ever

[rancid juniper]

EDF is an auto funny game

[snow lotus]

Can anyone help me with something

[tranquil pebble]

I saw someone running a Windows VM... inside Minecraft. BRUH

[rancid juniper]

yea thats because people are tired of live service and mundane hero shooters

and plus that concord cinematic intro took most of the premiere time

[tranquil pebble]

live service games suck because eventually they get shut down and then you can't play it anymore

[snow lotus]

Everytime i try to delete files from my x10 pro(external ssd) my file explorer crashes. Any way to fix it?

[rancid juniper]

they also suck since they are typically filled with useless MTX and locked paywalls, also since its competitive you'll always have a bad time

[tranquil pebble]

So yeah any amount of progress in them is wasted too

[rancid juniper]

yep

[tranquil pebble]

I much prefer PvE

and coop

[rancid juniper]

^^^

based

i mean why do you think helldivers 2 is so popular

playing with friends against enemies guarantees a fun experience

100%

[tranquil pebble]

that's also a huge strength of EDF

[rancid juniper]

yessir

[tranquil pebble]

Thats a game that knows it doesn't need to spend millions on making ultra realistic graphics

[rancid juniper]

just straight gameplay

you got the objective, now play

[tranquil pebble]

and arcade like weapon systems

[rancid juniper]

i like em wacky

[tranquil pebble]

cant wait to blow up more ants in EDF 6 while singing lol

[rancid juniper]

[tranquil pebble]

Believe it or not this series started off as a basic shovelware type game

It happened to get traction though

and then it was rightfully promoted to its own game series

This one surprised me a lot too. Its... different but still fun in a lot of the same ways.

[rancid juniper]

ill be waiting until it launches

[tranquil pebble]

yeah no point in pre-ordering

not sure they're even going to open preorders on it anyways at this rate lol

I only preorder games I'm pretty much guaranteed to enjoy. SMT V Vengeance was my latest preorder.

They give you some of the DLC + steelbook for free with preorder.

ya know stuff most companies would charge extra for even if you do preorder

[rancid juniper]

mmmhmm

[tranquil pebble]

another screenshot they posted of... a Windows VM inside minecraft

[tacit geode]

wow how mean

tho mine was worse

i kept poking her

[idle nexus]

anyone study chemistry for undergrad or anything?

alternatively, anyone ever put liquid metal on aluminum before? lmfao

[velvet summit]

don't

[idle nexus]

right but say I did

lmao

[velvet summit]

rip aluminium

well

you might be fine if the oxide layer is covering all the aluminum

and you didnt scratch some of it off

[idle nexus]

I'm not sure if this ancient GPU's heatsink even is aluminum

or if it works

[velvet summit]

if it works?

[idle nexus]

if you'd like to know more, see this review article from 01/06/2010 lmao https://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/asus_eah5750_formula/

it's heckin 14 years old apparently

it's like a sophomore in high school

[velvet summit]

looks like aluminium extrusion?

[idle nexus]

heck if I know

I'm checking more reviews but

seems kinda light to be copper

& kinda not the color of copper

[velvet summit]

i mean

i dont think copper was that cheap at that time either

[idle nexus]

1gb of gddr5 memory FTW

[velvet summit]

tbh

barely even considered ancient

most likely alu

considering the price of the whole gpu is 150 from the article, i doubt that price would make a profit if it was copper

and if you're lucky enough for it to be copper

that heatsink will be worth more as scrap than the gpu as a whole

☠️

[idle nexus]

lol you think I can get it to POST on a Z690?

if anything, I'll put my janky universal GPU waterblock on it

but for now the likely aluminum stock cooler with liquid metal will have to do

then again, $140 in 2010 is like $200 today apparently

[gleaming sedge]

Hows nuanen sound for a car name? It means beautiful which the car would be to me

esterní is also not bad it lens good fortune

[idle nexus]

aren't you supposed to give it a female name or it's bad luck? that might be ships... I've never named my car before but it sounds cool ig

time to find out if this HD 5750 will POST on Z690 lol

the fan on it is spinning. That's something ig

[gleaming sedge]

I wanted a Goblin related one but they don't have good words for it

[idle nexus]

holy heck it POSTed

wow got into Windows too

now to see if this driver works

I'm on Win11 rn & the latest driver for this card is for win10

driver installed wow

https://tenor.com/view/jeff-goldblum-jurrasic-park-gif-11303058

I wonder how many of these have run on DDR5 systems ever

well heck

now that it's running on Win11

I've realized all the benchmarks worth doing run better on Win7

lol there's no GPUpi score for this card on hwbot

oh heck I dunno if it can even run it wth

lol HWiNFO opening slow as heck stuck on "Loading Sensor... GPU ATI..."

[mortal grail]

LOL THE CAR

[deep parcel]

car gpu lol

[velvet summit]

?? faze rug is still relevant??

🤔 honestly they should have given linus the laptop for free and let them test all the rams for the framework

https://knowledgebase.frame.work/en_us/what-dram-memory-is-supported-by-framework-laptop-16-ryS2Xr3ch

so going by this any suggestions?

[storm narwhal]

She's a new person now isn't she? no more egirl or something
