[light egret]

I hated being an "essential employee" 😂

[idle nexus]

I've done that. I'm not proud of it & tipping the Ubereats people well doesn't make up for it cuz the restaurant people don't see any of that lol

[proud jackal]

[idle nexus]

ya for real I'm like wait, people are getting paid to stay home & I'm out here doing essential work for the same pay I get normally? wth lol

[light egret]

What do you do now?

During covid I was delivering pizza and my pay got worse lol. There were more orders but worse tips

[idle nexus]

trying to pass the exam to actually get my career going

[light egret]

For what tho

[idle nexus]

[light egret]

I'm currently working on A+ and hoping to find a career in it lol

Damn you gonna be a big time

[idle nexus]

I stopped doing electrical & went to school again

[light egret]

Remember me when you're rich

Maybe hire me when you're rich 😂

[idle nexus]

I had to do a force shutdown

[opaque sedge]

The elden ring visual

[sour falcon]

oh

[opaque sedge]

Looked like a vase when i tried focusing in

[sour falcon]

never played it so i wouldnt know

[mortal grail]

Looks like some dirty handprint

[random osprey]

elden ring itself base game should be fine depending on your setup. dlc area has some performance issues

i have fps drops in some areas, my other friend has really bad stutters where it freezes time to time and one of my other friends crashes sometimes but not super often

[gilded kraken]

SUMMAAAAR TIMEEEE

[opaque sedge]

Wait why the hell is there a 4060 ti with 16 gigs of vram

Wtf give the 4070 super that

Or the ti

[obsidian berry]

Mining crypto is my guess

[elfin mural]

mining craze ended when this launched

16gb 4060ti is just an attempt to lure in people to buy a bad value gpu

[remote geode]

is it worth it to move to a 3060/3060ti from a 1070ti

the 3060s are from a mining rig, apparently

160 USD for the ti and 140usd for the non-ti version

[devout forum]

Literally just snake oil lmao

It's the same crappy GPU, but now there is no VRAM bottleneck so you can see just how bad it really is

(Admittedly in extremely specific workloads that nobody would buy 4060 Ti GPUs for, the extra VRAM did improve perf, but nobody would buy a 4060 Ti for those workloads)

[remote geode]

meow

[elfin mural]

as long as the gpu has no corrosion or obvious lack of care, it'll be good

i'd get 3060ti definitely tho

much faster for 20 bucks more

worth it imo to upgrade from 1070ti

[remote geode]

it would be an OK pair with my current i5-11600k, ye?

[elfin mural]

yes

it'll be fine

[tranquil pebble]

most of the 4000 series is an L

[remote geode]

I might think about it, since I can probably still sell the 1070ti for 80usd or 100 for a sucker :3

[devout forum]

I mean at current price the 4070 Ti Super is not awful

[tranquil pebble]

I said most, not all

[elfin mural]

7900xt exists

[devout forum]

Super series kinda made things better, but 4000 is still expensive for perf

[elfin mural]

that's the part of the issue

[devout forum]

more GRE I'd say

[elfin mural]

but efficiency argument is debatable

well, considering the xt's price atm

the gre squarely competes with 4070

[devout forum]

4070 Ti Super and 7900 GRE are about same raster perf
4070 Ti has RT perf and power consumption
7900 GRE is much cheaper

mem OC update really let the GRE soar apparently

7900 XT honestly not good buy IMO

[elfin mural]

not apparently, it's a fact lel

[tranquil pebble]

as expected

[elfin mural]

the bus width chokes the gre

so mem oc will help it

[devout forum]

I mean more than expected

[tranquil pebble]

Nvidia loves to choke cards with bus width lol

so its funny seeing an AMD choked like that

[devout forum]

But yeah the GRE squarely competes with the 4070 Ti Super in raster perf, but RT and power efficiency kinda suffers
The GRE is significantly cheaper thoguh

[tranquil pebble]

Golden Radeon Edition /j (ik its Rabbit)

[devout forum]

to be fair

I am worried about adding like 80 watts more heat into my room

compared to my current 6700 XT

[tranquil pebble]

the downside with OC is its never guaranteed to work, or to be stable long term

[devout forum]

Yeah

I'm personally worried about bedroom temps and power bill too

[tranquil pebble]

undervolt is good for those issues

[devout forum]

Don't got AC and that GRE sucks up like 300 watts
Which would show up on our power bill, and heat my room up even more than it already is heated up

[devout forum]

can you get it down 80 watts without losing perf?

[tranquil pebble]

probably not

[devout forum]

20-40 watts I can see happen

But it'd still heat more than my current card does (which is already borderline unbearable)

[elfin mural]

call me wild

but laptops actually make sense in these cases

you sacrifice the ability to make upgrades

but their efficiency means they don't heat the room up as much

[tranquil pebble]

or sff desktops with laptop internals

just avoid AIO desktops because they suck for so many reasons

[elfin mural]

Framework barebones boards

3D print a case

or something

[tranquil pebble]

or use without a case lol

[elfin mural]

ya

[tranquil pebble]

I do that with Orange Pi 5 plus

[devout forum]

I'd love to get a small AC setup going but

Damn they're so expensive here

it's like 700 dollars (converted) for a 2600 watt unit

at least with installation

Q: Can i use my AIr Compressor on a sunday if the Air compressor is around 97DB?

The majority of the noise is around 100Hz as far i'm aware

Never did a rough frequency spectrum check

Because i have a fan in need of a cleaning

[storm narwhal]

No idea, correlate that with your local sound laws

[hollow barn]

Okay, That then means i need to schedule it to Monday...

It has quite the dust buildup that it just about functions enough rn.

[storm narwhal]

Oof yeah then unfortunately Monday

[hollow barn]

Well, i look again rn

[storm narwhal]

At least it still works, sort of

[hollow barn]

Kinda... but the airflow is weak

[storm narwhal]

Just two more days

Remember don't let your fan free spin

[hollow barn]

It is the white one:

[storm narwhal]

I assumed computer fan

Still don't let it free spin kekw

[hollow barn]

so spinning isn't a problem most likely

[hollow barn]

Yeah

[storm narwhal]

It'll turn into a generator

[hollow barn]

On a conventional fan (see PC fan) i would be concerned too.

[hollow barn]

I don't thinkg that Async. motors retain the Magnetic field

if it is one

i would need to look on the Specific model specs

[storm narwhal]

Better safe than sorry as they say

[hollow barn]

Yeah

Well, i think if i clean it with real compressed air it might work better afterwards...

PS: if i have it on "OFF" and also the Speed selection to "0" then it shouldn't be an issue.

probably

But it's also probably why you have these icons on your files

[opaque sedge]

Omg my desktop is attached to one drive

[craggy shoal]

[opaque sedge]

What do i do

[craggy shoal]

Man I hate OneDrive

Go to OneDrive in your System Tray (the up arrow at the bottom-right of the taskbar)

[opaque sedge]

Whats next

[craggy shoal]

And in Settings, go to Sync and backup -> Manage backup -> just disable all of these

Just turn all of these off

[opaque sedge]

I did

Everything

Went away

[craggy shoal]

should be in your OneDrive if you need it

Yeah that's why OneDrive sucks lol

[opaque sedge]

So do i have to redownload everything?

[craggy shoal]

idk tbh

try launching Cyberpunk

[opaque sedge]

It does launch

[craggy shoal]

Did RDR2 install? Try that too

[opaque sedge]

Wait i deleted that when i got hasty

[craggy shoal]

try installing it again lol

[opaque sedge]

Strange i deleted it but its launching from the rockstar game launcher

It launched btw

[craggy shoal]

Yep

[unreal trail]

why everyone gotta have their own launcher?

just make an executable and sell the ISO

[craggy shoal]

Idk if you've been having to reinstall Windows during your troubleshooting, but disable OneDrive every time you install Windows. It'll clog up your 5GB of OneDrive and your 2TB SSD will be pointless

[opaque sedge]

I did reinstall windows once cuz everything was unresponsive but I didn’t disable it that time

Should i do a reset again?

[craggy shoal]

nah

[opaque sedge]

So how do i move all my stuff out of the onedrive?

[craggy shoal]

Go to OneDrive and delete it

[wraith bay]

Would it be a good idea to use a 650 psu just to power stress on a 750w system to know if a psu is defective?

Probably no?

[wind quail]

The term power stress isn't a thing? Also if your system doesn't boot it could be the psu, could be many more things, unless you have a stress test or something opening when you log into windows it'll probably use under 200w easily when idle(not doing anything)

[wraith bay]

Check thread in #graphics-cards you'll see and catch up to the problem

[wind quail]

So basically running a "750w" system on a 650w psu should be fine as long as you don't stress the cpu and gpu to max load at the same time

[median kelp]

Can a moderator DM me, there's a scammer for a financial scam messaging people from the server.

[paper verge]

bro just uninstall and go use win10

[obsidian berry]

U could could also limit the max watts the gpu and cpu consumes with msi afterburner and the bios

[obsidian berry]

@wraith bay

[wraith bay]

Even low loads make it crash. Supposedly someone says its either the cpu, psu, or motherboard

[obsidian berry]

Anything over clocked?

[rancid juniper]

Man... These games were fun. Funnily enough I never got the Xbox original games to work on my x360 slim because I needed an external drive

These are the only physical game media I've owned.

[safe cape]

Nice collection

Where IS fh1 ?

[rancid juniper]

Never owned fh1 for the 360

[velvet summit]

iirc you're in germany right? if so, iirc you're not even supposed to be vacuuming because that's too loud for sundays LMFAO

[rancid juniper]

At the time I was getting into consoles

[wraith bay]

No, we went through the process of this already. Im doing off the wall solutions.
Rpelacing cpu, moving ram is what i can do. I don't have another watt supported psu to try, hence, should i try 650w

[velvet summit]

if nobody has dmed you yet, just dm a random online moderator (preferably with an online status, or idle, dnd status might just be busy)

[craggy shoal]

Windows 10 does the same thing 💀

[sour falcon]

Well something is wrong with my PC

[sour falcon]

Why do you have one of the most disappointing BMW’s known to man on your pfp

[sour falcon]

VERY wrong

[chrome mirage]

I just lost 170000 runes because I got stuck in a glitch

[mental yoke]

Uh, cuz its my pfp

[sour falcon]

Disappointing

[velvet summit]

so true bestie

[mental yoke]

Lmao what

[sour falcon]

It’s bmw

You can do SO much better

[mortal grail]

Who ping

[mortal grail]

Just delete the onedrive files, quit that app and disable it in task manager startup

5 minute job

[mental yoke]

Good day everyone.

[sour falcon]

What’s a DDM Extension..?

Restarting my pc showed it was running in the background

[sour falcon]

Ah, Display Device Manager

[rough zinc]

As a BMW fan, the i8 is the one BMW I wouldn’t ever buy

[sour falcon]

SEE

THEY GET IT

[rough zinc]

Sure 300ish hp out of it is okay but it having a 3 cylinder is a complete joke

• 150k MSRP for an I3

[sour falcon]

Only 3 cylinders im ok with are the GR corolla and the Gemera

[rough zinc]

Exactly

The I3 in the GR corolla is part of what makes it special and you don’t expect much more than an I4 out of Toyota

Not counting the 2JZ because technically Yamaha

[sour falcon]

Yeah they really like the I4 lately

[rough zinc]

And yeah nothing special in modern times from Toyota that has more than 4 cylinders

[sour falcon]

No

[sour falcon]

No*

Yamaha made the 1JZ

not the 2JZ

[rough zinc]

Only reason I’d buy an i8 is if I can find a dirt cheap wrecked one to try to squeeze in a bigger engine

[sour falcon]

Rich rebuilds be like

Atleast I’m pretty sure he did a build in an i8

Could be mistaken

[rough zinc]

Ahh ok I always mix the two of them up on who made which one

[rough zinc]

Sounds about right

I’ve stopped watching him ever since he crashed into someone and his content went majorly downhill

[sour falcon]

OH MY GOD WHY IS MY COMPUTER SO SLOW

[sour falcon]

Yeah I haven’t watched much of him lately

My pc is worse than my core 2 duo laptop from 2007

[rough zinc]

I still find it so ironic that I always made fun of WRX’s being so unreliable, yet now I just bought one

[sour falcon]

From what I’ve heard they’re ok as long as you avoid boost

[rough zinc]

They’re fine as long as you tune it after any modification except for a cat back exhaust

And avoid large right turns on the track

[sour falcon]

HAHAHAHA

[rough zinc]

We love oil starvation

[sour falcon]

Yessir

I have no clue what’s causing this, I disconnected my hdd and secondary add, I think im gonna reinstall windows

My pc just shut down after disabling all my startup apps???

WHAT IS HAPPENING

Like not even a shut down signal it’s just off now

I am so confused

[dusk knot]

M

[trim mesa]

I posted them I am excited and nervous to put them in

[opaque sedge]

Did ur pc have any sensitive info?

[gentle canyon]

@proud jackal man you didnt have to overshadow me with that clean af water build

lmao

[lone mango]

The recent ones are more durable but the old ones might be in rough shape

VA wrx is fine, early VA sti is not the best, late VA sti has the ra block which is more durable

[rough zinc]

Yeah the VBs are more durable now because of less factory boost and thicker piston walls on the FA-24 but the oil issues are still there

[lone mango]

Even if you have an ej wrx you should still be ok if you drive it normally but you would have to look at it more to really make sure

[lone mango]

Oh ok you bought the newest one

[rough zinc]

I bought a 2023 WRX brand new

Couldn’t say no to 1.9% 0 down and 72 months

Don’t trust used WRX’s because of the big modding scene

For 30k total, can’t complain at all

[proud jackal]

[rough zinc]

Would’ve brought my E450 back to college with me but I don’t trust it not to get broken into in Troy since my old BMW X5 did

[sour falcon]

I stfg if it’s the drivers

[rough zinc]

So bought cheapish car that still has everything I wanted: AWD, manual, fun

[sour falcon]

I mean, I’m NOT complaining if it is, I can reinstall old ones, I can NOT afford any components at the moment 😭

Did infact not fix anything

Mobo has a red CPU light 🥲

[icy ore]

[sour falcon]

computer was overheating for some reason

idk if it was the armory crate update or what but yeah

its never done this before out of the 6 months ive had it

[icy ore]

GDQ started today

https://www.twitch.tv/gamesdonequick

If anyone interested in watching

[gleaming sedge]

At work and see this.... I guess I'm spending a couple days trying to fix this, no troubles until printing this stupid thing

Biggest problem with 3d printing is that everyone has already made everything and licensed it so you can't really sell it unless if it's just toys that hardly sell so just another hobby that makes no money

[stark tiger]

I just build my PC and a message on my PC case is coming up not on my motherboard. I have a Asus Z790 mobo and a i7 14700K. Nothing pops up on the monitor and it doesn’t boot, any ideas? Thanks!

It says No boot device or device error

[velvet summit]

the way you sell 3d printing is to offer a 3d printing service, and not selling things you already 3d printed

what you do need to do for that though, in order to save everybody's time and money, is to validate their prints by looking at them and determining if supports are needed, and if the design and print parameters need to be tweaked for a sucessful and good quality print

[gleaming sedge]

I wouldn't even have guess this needed supports plus probably didn't help that I just took it and shrunk it by a bit hight wise so it was not proportional. Parameters tweaked is something I have hardly any clue of. Plus if it's the service then I'm really out of luck I'm in country area not many people need things just printed off

If they did they'd want to pay 2 or 3 dollars for it

[velvet summit]

you would price the prints by weight or print time

maybe have a flat minimum rate

[gleaming sedge]

By filament weight say it's something small still be only a couple cents per

Problem with the print now is just not hot enough spool says 250-270C and it's around 255C

Just tells me to buy bambu filament primarily to stay away from problems

[velvet summit]

say someone ordered a 3 gram print (which is quite a small print btw)
you would price that at the cost of the filament + operation costs + manpower costs basically
so with your filament, 3 grams would cost about 5 cents of filament
add the time you spent looking over the print, with your manhours being worth like 7.25 (us federally mandated minimum wage) you could add another 60 cents for 5 minutes of prep
then you add operation costs, you could set the cost as like, 20 cents an hour, which should cover all power costs of running the printer, plus any maintenance required in the future, which for a 3 gram print, (and your printer that i think is the p1s if the message history is correct, with the default settings) is... well, i have no clue and i got too lazy to calculate, but the minimum net sales you would get is over 65 cents for a 3 gram tiny print

not a lot of money, but the cost of running the printer and such are so low that it doesnt really matter too too much

plus you already own the printer

think of it more as a side gig, some bonus few cents every once in a while, so that your printer doesnt have to sit idle

you will definitely not get as many people ordering from you as a big company

hell, you might not even get one for months at a time

but once someone does notice and orders, then that isnt really much of an issue anyways

[gleaming sedge]

Biggest problem is I'm not very good with 3d modeling and nor is bambu studios very good for it

[velvet summit]

3d printing services isnt you designing the 3d prints; people just send you a 3d print to be printed because they dont own a printer, and then all your job is to slice the print and ensure that it will be successful, and to print it

[gleaming sedge]

You'd have to go and make sure someone else has not put a noncommercial license on it or you can't make money off of it

Just sucky, print I know I could sell I have to pay 101 dollars to make because some person in the uk is worried I'd be taking his money

[velvet summit]

it's a bit more complicated then that; you're not selling the model or prints of the model, you're only selling the service of printing the model they supply you

of course, you would want to have terms and conditions for the customer, e.g. no weapons, no nsfw prints, no models that you dont have rights to print/commission someone to print, etc.

[gleaming sedge]

Oh, hmm so I could get around a few problems i have via selling a service and not a product

[sour falcon]

my cpu wont downclock...?

[velvet summit]

me when gameboost is enabled

[sour falcon]

there's no games running

its just idle at 5GHZ

well the P cores are, The E cores are at 3.9GHZ

I can’t find this case anywhere

Am I stupid

[lofty fossil]

I have the Z690 Steel Legend with a i7 13700K, but i want to turn off the overclock and forgot got

How*

I’m in bios currently, any help?

[proud jackal]

Turn off the overclock, what?

[velvet summit]

I assume they overclocked the cpu and want to reverse it

[lofty fossil]

Precisely

[velvet summit]

You could try looking at the manual

[lofty fossil]

Erm I threw it away sadly 😭😭

Is there an online one

[velvet summit]

I'm a bit too tired (and on my phone so it's a pain) to check

Yeah

[lofty fossil]

You’re good, thank you for your help

[velvet summit]

Just search your mobo and go to the support section and there should be a few pdfs for different languages

[lofty fossil]

Im just trying to find fixes because my games for the past few months have just been crashing randomly

And I have a feeling it’s because my overclocked CPU

I checked task manager and on idle my CPU is at 5ghz~

[storm narwhal]

Which isnt necessarily a problem on an OC

[lofty fossil]

Yeah but im hoping it is the issue 😭😭

I’m tired of Minecraft randomly crashing

[storm narwhal]

There most definitely is an online manual

But isn't the easiest way just to reset CMOS and turn on xmp?

Unless you got specific settings in bios you don't wanna lose

[lofty fossil]

Like my Warzone crashes upon opening, Valorant crashes every now and then, ROBLOX crashes randomly too, along with Minecraft and all my other games

I can try that

[storm narwhal]

Or re-set up

[lofty fossil]

And no there’s no settings

[storm narwhal]

Oh great yeah

[lofty fossil]

Isnt there also an option to reset BIOS settings to default?

Or only resetting CMOS

[storm narwhal]

Yeah I forget how to do it tho haha

[lofty fossil]

Lol you’re good

[storm narwhal]

Manual might detail that

[lofty fossil]

When I’m back home I’ll check it out

Thanks for the help

[storm narwhal]

Anytime

[hoary zodiac]

wtf

did microsoft disable gpedit by default

[velvet summit]

Cmos is the hardware
Bios is the software

Clearing the cmos resets the bios to defaults

[storm narwhal]

W11 home doesn't have gpedit

You need pro

[hoary zodiac]

I ended up cheating it in

turns out you could install it using cmd

[storm narwhal]

Or you could just swap over to pro lmao

[mental yoke]

yo

[plain stone]

so my Kingston Fury Beast 2x16gb 3200mHz just arrived and one of them was already opened, what could they have done?

or should there be something I should be concerned about, providing both dimms seemingly work fine?

[mortal grail]

Take a picture of it

Before you open it

Then try

[plain stone]

i already opened both of them, both seem to be spotless

i can get these replaced but I honestly don't want to go through a lot of hassle

[mortal grail]

Saying it in case you got sent a returned kit that didn't work

Not because I want to cause hassle lol

[plain stone]

nonono haha i understand

but if both sticks work and are genuine should i not be worried about one of them being previously opened?

[mortal grail]

Not really

I would question where you got it from though

If you have pictures to demonstrate the state it was in, I would query if you paid a "New" price for that

Can be considered fraud in a lot of places

[mortal grail]

With ram you can also quite easily recreate the state it was in as those normally ship in resealable packaging

[plain stone]

I'll test them out in a shop to see both are identical as the unopened one should work as it should

[granite estuary]

Hi

[fallen coral]

should I buy the Surface Laptop 7 for college? I don’t need it for gaming as I have a separate PC for that, should I get it?

[granite estuary]

What chat can someone give me help

pc being dumb stuttering for no reason

[velvet summit]

from a value perspective, nah

they arent very repairable and they dont last as long

[fallen coral]

can yall rec a nice looking laptop that runs windows then i dont want a mac

[velvet summit]

the m series macbooks may be the best laptops for college due to battery life, but for windows, considering your budget, you could get a framework 13

if you want a larger screen, you could go with the framework 16

main pros of the framework laptops is that they're easily servicable and upgradable

[opaque sedge]

Is chatgpt giving valid advice?

[granite estuary]

I just did DDU and reinstalled all my graphics drivers, still having the issue of random freezing in games what else can I try lol

[opaque sedge]

Amd?

[granite estuary]

yeah

Haven't had an issue with it had this pc probably 1.5 years now

just now started this and it started on F1 24 the game and now it's on other games

Well this started 2 days ago I'd say

If nothing else works I am just going to try and reset my pc to default settings

[opaque sedge]

I’m having issues too and thinking of doing a ddu and installing the 23 xx xx versions

And disabling windows updates trying to install newer drivers

[granite estuary]

So it could be the new drivers?

[opaque sedge]

Yeah amd is apparently bad at new driver updates

[granite estuary]

This is the version I have

[opaque sedge]

If that doesn’t work out for me personally i’m going with a nvidia card this wrek

[granite estuary]

My card has been great for almost 2 years

[opaque sedge]

Oof yeah thats the one they just released last week

[granite estuary]

I am not entirely sure what is going on right now

Literally dropping to 0 fps in LoL which is probably one of the easiest games to run

Do you know which last version was stable

So i can go back and reinstall if I have to

[opaque sedge]

Idk I’m personally gonnaa go through several 23 xx xx versions

[granite estuary]

According to random reddit person 24.5.1 may work

[opaque sedge]

Yup that’s the version i have

But i’m having a few glitches and frozen games and crashes with it

Rdr2 crashed on me yesterday after 2 hrs

[granite estuary]

ah

Well

[opaque sedge]

Barely got to witness the climax of the early chapter smh

[granite estuary]

I have to go to work soon and don't have time to go through a bunch of drivers to find the last stable one, if you find one that works do you mind letting me know

[opaque sedge]

[granite estuary]

lol

[opaque sedge]

Gotcha

I’ll add u

[granite estuary]

Appreciate it

This is ridiculous lol

I am just trying to play my racing games

But I can't do 1 singular lap because the entire screen is freezing

[velvet summit]

group policy doesnt even work 100% of the time anymore because... well, microsoft

[granite estuary]

Rolling back to 24.5.1 😎

No

[velvet summit]

i used 2022 drivers for amd for a little while

damn changes with the opengl

breaking me shaders

[granite estuary]

Which ones work

I just reinstalled 24.5.1 haven’t tried It out yet

[velvet summit]

i wouldnt recommend them, they are quite old

honestly speaking, i think that the latest studio drivers probably would be stable?

[granite estuary]

I mean like recent drivers

24.6.1?

[velvet summit]

idk which version the studio drivers are on

[granite estuary]

That driver is far from stable for me

That’s the newest driver released

[velvet summit]

latest studio driver is 22.Q4

though it's quite old

also they werent called studio drivers, i keep mixing them up with nvidia

nvidia has gameready and studio drivers
amd has adrenaline and pro drivers

the studio and pro drivers are the same drivers as the gameready or adrenaline drivers, but they arent updated as frequently, and they are the latest validated to be stable drivers

which in amd's case, is from 2022/11/15

this is for my gpu btw, i have a 6750xt

[granite estuary]

Ohh

I have a 6650 XT

[velvet summit]

yeah latest studio drivers for your gpu is also the 22.q4

7000 series doesnt have a stable studio driver yet though

too new still

[opaque sedge]

Damn so studio drivers are more stable for gaming or smth?

[velvet summit]

they're meant for professional work mainly, where you dont want your application to crash

[opaque sedge]

They?

[velvet summit]

accidentally hit the corner of the enter key

lmao

was trying to hit the '

[opaque sedge]

But can work with games?

[velvet summit]

yeah, it was the same exact drivers as the adrenaline drivers

just less updated

[opaque sedge]

Ic

[velvet summit]

though that being said, with it being older, it wont have the game optimizations that amd and nvidia does

at least not the latest ones

[opaque sedge]

Welp i’m about to ddu and download the 23 xx xx drivers now

Do u have the ddu guide link on u?

[velvet summit]

you should try your drivers first, if all else fails, then go to the studio drivers

[opaque sedge]

Oh my card’s the 7900xt

[velvet summit]

because those are from 2022 and quite old, and games might not like it as much as a professional software like photoshop

oh

nvm then

i didnt even notice the person i was talking to changing

LMFAO

[opaque sedge]

Well i’m sure i’ll be fine with an older driver the 7900xt can probably push thru with raster on unsupported games

[velvet summit]

you can grab it easily just by doing ?ddu

?ddu

[opaque sedge]

Nice thanks

@velvet summit what am i supposed to do here for safe mode?

The instructions said to clear the safe boot but it was already cleared

Oh wait nvm

I’m dumb it was an instruction for something else

[velvet summit]

[opaque sedge]

@velvet summit i gotta select everything here right?

[velvet summit]

defaults are usually fine

[opaque sedge]

So no need to select anything else?

[oak gale]

does anyone know something in programming

am new to programming

and

i think there are missing stuff

in teh c# tutorial it shows void method

stuff like that

i was learning about method which actually require typin\

outside the void

m

[velvet summit]

full uninstall, just select all the amd stuff since you shouldnt have any nv stuff, though you dont really need to change the other options

though idk if they're related to the gpu anyways

defaults should be fine

[opaque sedge]

Crap i left it as is and clicked the clean and restart

[velvet summit]

the unchecked ones are related to audio and chipset, so realistically for gpu driver uninstall, they dont need to be selected

[opaque sedge]

Oh cool

@velvet summit this just happened

What do i do

[granite estuary]

Wtf

[velvet summit]

you're uninstalling gpu drivers, that's kinda what happens

though you're also not in safe mode

which is the more recommended method of using ddu

[granite estuary]

I didn’t even think you could do ddu not in safe mode

[opaque sedge]

I already did ddu and this after the restart

[velvet summit]

just ignore it then, the background just looks funky

[opaque sedge]

Yay it fixed itself

God amd is kind of a pain in the butt

[velvet summit]

it isnt significantly different with nvidia nowadays

[granite estuary]

Yeah I never had any issues with my good old trusty 1080 ti

[opaque sedge]

So the 40 series are similar too?

In terms of driver hiccups?

[granite estuary]

Can’t even play my games after the recent driver update

[velvet summit]

doesnt really matter too much, both amd and nvidia have had funky drivers that you had to roll back once in a while

[granite estuary]

That’s fair

I’m just having my share of bad experiences with the amd card

It happens

[opaque sedge]

Btw how do i check if my cpu drivers are ok?

[velvet summit]

the cpu doesnt really have any drivers? you do have chipset drivers but those you usually dont have to mess around with

and shouldnt effect gaming

affect

[opaque sedge]

Got it

[granite estuary]

Is there a way to get rid of gpu whine?

Anytime I move my mouse or anything my gpu makes some noises

Bzzzzzz

[opaque sedge]

Cool looks like this older driver also correctly displays my cpu temps instead if a fat zero when buggy

[velvet summit]

not really, sometimes changing the psu can fix it
sometimes changing the gpu can fix it

coil whine kinda just exists

[granite estuary]

Do you have coil whine

[opaque sedge]

Looks like 3d mark is on sale rn

For lile 8 bucks and 80 cents

[opaque sedge]

I do

But mines a near 350 w gpu

[granite estuary]

I treat coil whine like I treat my car

[granite estuary]

If it makes noise I turn up my music

[opaque sedge]

Had me in the first half

Thought u would take it to a mechanic immediately

[granite estuary]

Me if something sounds expensive in my car I just turn up the music lol

[opaque sedge]

Damn those actually look kind of sleek

[granite estuary]

Pretend it doesn’t exist

[rancid juniper]

yea they lookin good

[opaque sedge]

2 more generations

[granite estuary]

This is my gpu

It’s got camouflage

[opaque sedge]

Intel is usually good witj software stuff right?

[rancid juniper]

asrocker

[rancid juniper]

well.... they're getting there

[granite estuary]

I think my mobo is also asrock

[opaque sedge]

Did you by any chance pay an extra 50 bucks for the aesthetics charge

[granite estuary]

Nah I got it on sale

[opaque sedge]

Lucky the steel legend mobo looks so good

[granite estuary]

I paid I think $350-$400 Canadian

I don’t remember

I got this pc almost 2 years ago

Bad picture but

The pc

[opaque sedge]

I got this dull looking cheap asus one cuz it was in a bundle

[granite estuary]

Rear fan has been pulling in air for almost a year I put it in the wrong way and am too lazy to turn it around lol

[granite estuary]

Damn nice

I like the no rgb

I hate rgb

Idk why I got it

[opaque sedge]

Idk i think if u only run one color like white blue or green rgb looks pretty neat imo

[granite estuary]

I was running white then it kept changing back to rgb by itself

So I gave up

😂

[opaque sedge]

Yo wth

My system is struggling in timespy

Strange its working fine for me for some reason

Must be a server issue in ur region

[wind quail]

[opaque sedge]

They dont want u guys to see the light of microcenter bundles

Want to keep u in the dark

[wind quail]

[opaque sedge]

Tru

There are many microcenters in the US either

[wind quail]

oh look a bundle (cries in having 23% sales tax)

[opaque sedge]

Oof

Mines 6% and even that hurts

[wind quail]

higher in some other EU countries thats just irelands

6% is nothing yall got it easy lol

[opaque sedge]

Anyways what alternatives would u recommend?

For the gpu

[wind quail]

just a cheaper model if they have one

or if they have a cheaper one on amz that you can price match

[opaque sedge]

The zotac seems to be the cheapest

[wind quail]

10 under msrp seems stinky :/

[opaque sedge]

According to pcpp as well
