[mortal grail]

That was a long ass time ago tho

Shift

I have a 3060Ti for enter 💀

AND PEOPLE CALL ME AN AMD SHILL

[fair onyx]

@mortal grailRunning a training job, time to see if it happens again or something

[keen shale]

We kinda all are until Intel removes head and sees daylight

[fair onyx]

looks like proof of a package not arriving lol

[mortal grail]

LOL it does

[fervent stump]

Ahhhhh I need it so badly

[fair onyx]

ok yeah, restart fixed it... its training fine now

so weird

[mortal grail]

Oh they made a 4090 version

[keen shale]

Now that's a 4090 you can afford

[mortal grail]

Mine's the 3080

[fair onyx]

oh well, it is what it is

[fervent stump]

😭

[fair onyx]

glad I can do my work now

Working on my second 3090 as we speak

[keen shale]

$60 for the 3080 keycap wat

[fervent stump]

ITS WORTH IT

[keen shale]

no, no it's not

[mortal grail]

Yeah it was something like that

[keen shale]

I paid that for my whole keyboard

[fervent stump]

It’s so small and precious

[mortal grail]

Back when I was more senseless

[storm narwhal]

60 bucks wtf

[fervent stump]

I need one for myself

[keen shale]

Just cuz you haz money doesn't mean you need to spend it

[mortal grail]

Tbf my whole keyboard with mods was like $400

[storm narwhal]

Real

[keen shale]

https://www.etsy.com/market/rtx3070_keycap

[storm narwhal]

Mother of god

[fervent stump]

Wait I got one that isn’t a key cap

[keen shale]

Right??

[fervent stump]

Nvm it is :c

[mortal grail]

There's mine

$40

💀

[fervent stump]

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1160426288/rtx-3080-shift-keycap

It’s more realistic then the 4090

[keen shale]

Here's a polymer one for $13

More reasonable but no fan spinny

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1160426288/rtx-3080-shift-keycap?content_source=37c4928d94c0f771512c20c479bdec3d3aedede5%253A1160426288

[mortal grail]

I mean yeah I was wasteful once

[keen shale]

We all were or are

[mortal grail]

Why do you think I rant so much on here

💀

I have the scars of bad spending all over the place

I'm much better with my spending now

[fervent stump]

It’s nice but I have adhd I need that mini fan sadly

[keen shale]

I have ADHD too and that fan isn't worth $60

[fervent stump]

I’ll use the mini fan more then the computer I’m saving up for

[mortal grail]

The 3060ti one costed more? I can't remember

[fervent stump]

Idk I have bad adhd sometimes not sure why

[mortal grail]

These were ages ago now

[craggy shoal]

I also have ADHD. Which fan are we judging?

[keen shale]

Getchoo the scroller

https://onoroller.com/products/scroller-alu

Trust

[fervent stump]

60 bucks for a key cap gpu with a fan

Or 13 bucks for one that doesn’t have a fan but it looks like it does

[mortal grail]

Also have one of these

[craggy shoal]

Find a cheaper one $60 for a cliche artisan keycap is quite a bit

[mortal grail]

summa dese

[keen shale]

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1160426288/rtx-3080-shift-keycap?content_source=d61ed7e158b162f124e3912d2c71e0ef781e4cdb%253A1160426288

[fervent stump]

Aww I like it

[mortal grail]

Oh yeah one of these

💀

[craggy shoal]

I bet I could print that lmao

[fervent stump]

Xbox series s

[keen shale]

They are printed lol

[fervent stump]

Can I get like a cpu key cap?

[craggy shoal]

Easy lolll

[mortal grail]

A lot are printed

Some are metal

[fervent stump]

I got bullied by a turtle

[keen shale]

The $60 ones are metal

[mortal grail]

So powder or die cast

Oh wow

[velvet summit]

LMFAO

[craggy shoal]

Bruh what 💀

[velvet summit]

ikr ☠️

[keen shale]

wat

[fervent stump]

That’s a dumb review

[keen shale]

Oh, I see it now

[craggy shoal]

I'd pay $60 for that

[keen shale]

$25

[mortal grail]

Oh mfg

[keen shale]

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1005243836/interstellar-resin-keycap-interstellar?sts=1

[storm narwhal]

Ya know I think it'd be way cooler if the fan spun

[craggy shoal]

$60 for a file that you can easily print is not worth it

$60 if even tbh

[fervent stump]

May I see your full keyboard?

[keen shale]

Dis is my speed

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1653668198/circuit-board-chip-keycap-artisan-keycap?sts=1

[craggy shoal]

You're from Australia

[storm narwhal]

Now that I might pay 60 for

[mortal grail]

The one with the keys you want to see is dusty af

Sitting there waiting for an intel microcode

[fervent stump]

I saw you showed a few keycaps on a blue keyboard is that yours?

[mortal grail]

No

[fervent stump]

Oh

[mortal grail]

Ooo I like that one

Made with real parts

☠️

[keen shale]

Ye

[craggy shoal]

I swear if you're putting artisan key caps on a Corsair or Redragon

[keen shale]

You'll what

[storm narwhal]

Say it

[mortal grail]

I'm not shut up

[craggy shoal]

I’m gonna

I

Uhh

[mortal grail]

This is nice

[craggy shoal]

Nah nvm

Ur moms

[keen shale]

Uh huh

[storm narwhal]

Feesh

I like that one

[mortal grail]

I think the resin ones are the nicest tbh

[keen shale]

You can outrun my mom but you can't outrun her spatula 😂

[mortal grail]

They often reuse the same concept but all are good

[storm narwhal]

And they're super sturdy

Vs 3d printed ones

[mortal grail]

Here's a new one

[keen shale]

It's a Koi Cap!

[mortal grail]

"Dragon eye"

Look koi cap #74382

I still like it

[fervent stump]

Ermm what’s a G key?

[storm narwhal]

That's a cat eye bro

[mortal grail]

[craggy shoal]

Ew

[fervent stump]

WHAT IS IT 🥲

[keen shale]

do

not

[storm narwhal]

Just let's you do macros

[mortal grail]

Must've mixed them up at the taxidermist

[storm narwhal]

Its nothing special

[craggy shoal]

It's a Redragon 🤮

[fervent stump]

Ohhh ok may be helpful

[fervent stump]

Why

[storm narwhal]

Sure

[craggy shoal]

They’re garbage and feel cheap

[fervent stump]

Look at it, it soooooo nice

[mortal grail]

If I had too much money at once I'd have probably done this

[storm narwhal]

I'd rather have layers but

[keen shale]

No way

Someone getting sued lol

[craggy shoal]

4080 Super owners don't buy Redragon keyboards lol

[mortal grail]

Haha

[fair onyx]

Well, for some people, thats all they have

no need to crap on people

[keen shale]

Scuse me?

[fervent stump]

But im unique

I get called special daily

[craggy shoal]

https://tenor.com/view/doubt-press-x-la-noire-meme-x-button-gif-19259237

[fervent stump]

It even has the volume slider

[craggy shoal]

Chonky ahh keyboard

[fair onyx]

Bo, just get whatever keyboard you have. No need to put people down

[pliant berry]

I feel like keychron would be a better pick than red dragon

[fair onyx]

I agree as well

[storm narwhal]

Not a unique feature tho

Knobs are better

[keen shale]

NO, rollers are the way

[pliant berry]

That is if you were in the market to buy one

[fervent stump]

I like this one more then a knob

[fervent stump]

YESS

:D

[craggy shoal]

Knobs are also buttons

[fair onyx]

yeah, i wish my keychron had a dial/wheel/knob

[fervent stump]

Hissss

[storm narwhal]

Naah knobs for me bro I get to press

[lone mango]

I fw gamakay fr

[fervent stump]

I can remove the bottom part

[pliant berry]

I just use a loupedeck now for knobs and macros

[craggy shoal]

I'd hope 💀

[mortal grail]

Stream deck >>>>>>>>>>>>

Y'all aint thinkin with portals enough

[storm narwhal]

Didn't they come out with more stream deck things

[craggy shoal]

Cheap numpad and program your own macros >>>>>

[fervent stump]

Can’t you put like anything you want in it?

[keen shale]

Ok, I need a volume knob now

[mortal grail]

Valid but stream desk had more potential

[pliant berry]

There are so many now

[craggy shoal]

YEAH LMAO

[storm narwhal]

Oh damn that's cool

[mortal grail]

I got you hooked after all the nay saying

Haha

[storm narwhal]

Gottem

[keen shale]

Etsy got me

[fervent stump]

NOOO DONT SWITCH SIDES

[keen shale]

-_-

[storm narwhal]

Fit a roller onto THAT

[keen shale]

It's a tire

Must have

[storm narwhal]

You can't

[mortal grail]

This is why I avoid them so much

[keen shale]

It's even a Toyo

Oh, I ain't gonna buy anything

[mortal grail]

There are SO MANY THINGS I like on there

[keen shale]

BUt it's fun to look

[storm narwhal]

Window shopping

It is fun to look

[keen shale]

From the comfort of my own chair

[mortal grail]

Just about tbh

[keen shale]

The only way to do it

[storm narwhal]

Fr

[craggy shoal]

Get Window Pro. Window Home is super inferior

You have to activate your Window

[storm narwhal]

I can just do an in place upgrade

[mortal grail]

But we have windows at home

[fervent stump]

:o that’s cool id put like a voice changer or soundboards and then like yt and discord

[storm narwhal]

Windows at home:

[mortal grail]

Sure

[storm narwhal]

Voice Changer would be an app you probably need to pay for haha

[craggy shoal]

VoiceMod

[storm narwhal]

Unless you get VSTs like graillon

[craggy shoal]

Only it's expensive asf now

[mortal grail]

Stream deck is probably the best macro pad you can buy rn

And it's expensive

[fervent stump]

My friend told me a good one let me find the name

[storm narwhal]

But those aren't too convenient to do on the fly

[mortal grail]

But it's just genuinely good

The diversity of customisation is second to none

[storm narwhal]

If you can link HomeAssistant to it

And you have iot stuff

[craggy shoal]

Probably

[storm narwhal]

We lost chefskiss

[mortal grail]

You can link a lot of smart lighting to it

We did not

[storm narwhal]

But yes I mean if you can get it set up

[mortal grail]

Oh wait we did

[storm narwhal]

Smh

[mortal grail]

Wtf another server of mine yoinked it

[storm narwhal]

LIAR

[mortal grail]

[storm narwhal]

Go, do a crime

YIPPEE

[fervent stump]

I found the voice changer name it’s called RVC

Is that a good one?

[rough zinc]

[rough zinc]

Never too small

[fervent stump]

Where is the A

[rough zinc]

[rough zinc]

Hey thats my house

[storm narwhal]

Its still so weird when you're reminded an actual human made that noise

[craggy shoal]

Crap 💀 (I’m not asking for help guys I can fix it myself I’m not an idiot)

[rough zinc]

Matcha keyboard also fun

[storm narwhal]

Clearly you're missing a machine

[mortal grail]

Oh noes, intels

[rough zinc]

Have you tried checking that your PC is still there?

[craggy shoal]

AMD now

[mortal grail]

Oh noes, fake intels

[rough zinc]

[storm narwhal]

Did you delete system32

[rough zinc]

Real

[craggy shoal]

Yeah it's there. It just needed a reality check. I emotionally supported it and now it's working

[craggy shoal]

Yeah

[storm narwhal]

Dangit

[rough zinc]

[storm narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/my-computer-trash-bin-erase-delete-elderly-gif-17041770

You aren't supposed to do that!

[craggy shoal]

Yeah and how's that going for you?

[rough zinc]

Honestly perfectly

I personally haven’t had a single issue with my 13900k

[mortal grail]

AMD > Ryzen

[craggy shoal]

No way bro Ryzen is way better

[rough zinc]

So true

[mortal grail]

Didn't you degrade it by benching

[nocturne flicker]

Threadripper > Amd

[mortal grail]

Or am I thinking of someone else

[rough zinc]

But not degraded enough to have any stability issues at stock

[mortal grail]

☠️

[rough zinc]

Just ever so slightly degraded that I can’t do 6.0 GHz all core anymore

[craggy shoal]

Radeon > Phenom

It took me a day to decide I wanted to switch to AMD. I just don't want CPU issues in the future like how I decided to handle my car's transmission issues

[rough zinc]

I miss this https://hwbot.org/submission/5388199_alecfencer_cinebench___r23_multi_core_with_benchmate_core_i9_13900k_41984_cb

[keen shale]

Never did make a HWBOT account

[mortal grail]

I never lost it

[proud jackal]

[rough zinc]

I dont know 100% if i lost it, or if I just forgot the settings I was using

Im assuming i lost it because my biscuits score went down by like .25 but still

[last mango]

anyone ever use those?

[wary fjord]

great choice but i hate a one sided battle 😦

hope intel get up

[elfin mural]

i'd take that paper

and shred it

then leave for the x3d waitlist

[hot pumice]

intel > core ultra

[elfin mural]

core ultra? i call it core u instead

typo'd

[mortal grail]

Intel call u

[elfin mural]

like core u9

[mortal grail]

Call u 9

[elfin mural]

if intel calls me, they ain't getting nothing

i don't even use intel smh

[mortal grail]

"Buy our shares pls..."

amd is extending am4's life even more

with a ryzen 5 x3d

[mortal grail]

LMFAO

"Zen 5 failed! Quick! Use the backup cpus!"

[elfin mural]

this better not be mc exclusive

pls

[mortal grail]

[elfin mural]

lmao

amd is in damage control mode

[storm narwhal]

But we still don't fix the zero day vulnerability guys

Sorry no can do

We can patch the athalon but we can't patch the 1000, 2000 or 3000 series

[modern imp]

💀

[elfin mural]

lmao

amd should just skip 9000

and release 9kx3d

[modern imp]

Maybe they should have just cut down the SIMD to 4x256 like strix, save die area, and sell at curent zen4 pricing

If ARL doesn't regress from increased memory latency then the 245K basically is an automatic win for the midrange on next gen

[elfin mural]

real

what do you think about

4p4e 215/205

it's an ultra 3 ofc

[modern imp]

Depends on if it's ARL or meteorlake-s revived from the dead

[elfin mural]

i hope it's the better one of the two

[modern imp]

Going to ARL gets you
A minor jump on P core IPC
No HT
And a massive E core ipc jump

If it was proper ARL I'd honestly rather see 2+8 if it clocked high enough

Less ring stops (potentially cheaper) and more physical threads

[elfin mural]

fair enough

[granite estuary]

hi

[devout forum]

ironically the 7500F is available here

[icy ore]

7500f is really hot

That’s like 4148.889 degrees celsius

[remote geode]

i wonder if getting a $100 rtx 3060m 6gb is worth it

apparently i can make official nvidia drivers work by booting up a hex editor

right now i have a 1070ti

[opaque sedge]

How does the 9700x compare to the 7800x3d?

I’m sure for cpu related tasks or productivity tasks it prolly beats it considering even the 7700x could

[remote geode]

check out gamer's nexus' reviews about it their testing is pretty extensive

you can just skip around to see the numbers

[wary fjord]

what

haha

amd is like lets put x3d on everything xD

am4 is their guinie pig

[remote geode]

yeah

tho

[elfin mural]

9700x is mid

[wary fjord]

i mean i wont hate i have am4 lets go am4 never die

[remote geode]

thoughts on the 80-90 USD 3060m?

[elfin mural]

kinda worth it

isn't 1070ti an 8gb card tho?

[remote geode]

yeah

it is an 8gb card

[elfin mural]

i'd honestly cope with frame gen

[remote geode]

seems like the 12gb 3060m has been scalped after some big CCs covered it

[elfin mural]

but lossless upscaling app

buy*

it's 7 bucks on steam

[remote geode]

gotcha

[elfin mural]

and it's a genuinely decent solution

supports g-sync

it only supports borderless windowed mode tho

[remote geode]

I'm running 2 monitors rn, 1 1440p 165hz and 1 1080p 60hz

[elfin mural]

but it works fine

[remote geode]

i only run games borderless windowed mode :v

[elfin mural]

then you're fine

[wary fjord]

u like 4x frame?

I wonder if Nvidia broadcast tools still works with uhhhhhhh inf modded drivers

[elfin mural]

are you okay with some ghosting and stuff?

not sure tbh

[granite estuary]

why

[elfin mural]

but i'd say it's not that worth it to drop 1070ti for

[remote geode]

I played CP2077 with XeSS

[granite estuary]

I wish asus put a blocking thingy where the PSU is

[remote geode]

I can flip the 1070ti for 100 USD

[elfin mural]

vram kinda matters tho

but it depends on titles you play

[granite estuary]

could I make something to block out the psu

or would that overheat it

[fervent stump]

Hii

[remote geode]

have some mercy on the vietnamese child that put together [insert the part you're complaining about]

[granite estuary]

lol

[remote geode]

wassup bacon nuggets

[fervent stump]

Yay I’m elite

[remote geode]

yeah I figured that out, most of my games are like, not that vram heavy

[wary fjord]

deym if i have 100 usd i probably get 1080 or 5700

[fervent stump]

Me super cool

[wary fjord]

xD

[granite estuary]

I’m just saying because I suck at cable management and it’s kinda hard to manage cables into your psu

At least for me

[remote geode]

mostly warthinder

[fervent stump]

Cable management is fun

[granite estuary]

Fake news

[remote geode]

I've always wanted raytracing ever since I got a taste of it with my 2060

[fervent stump]

Just organize one cable at a time

[granite estuary]

No

[remote geode]

mostly for CP2077 shadows :v

[elfin mural]

https://youtu.be/XAl2OAklhF4

copium solution for $7

[wary fjord]

2060 as rt thats quite tuff

[granite estuary]

Cable management sucks

[remote geode]

yeah it's on my wishlist now ;)

[elfin mural]

but it's not a very bad solution

[fervent stump]

Like once you plug in one cable like start keeping it organized

[granite estuary]

No I just plugged them all in

[remote geode]

just shove everything on the back of the case

[fervent stump]

I’m cooler then you now I’m elite

[remote geode]

it's cable managed if you can't see it

[granite estuary]

Exactly

[fervent stump]

No

[elfin mural]

just make sure your gpu isn't at 99% usage

[remote geode]

and there's no magic smoke coming out

[granite estuary]

But unfortunately I don’t have a back of the case with this case

[remote geode]

why's that

[elfin mural]

lsfg does use some of your gpu

[granite estuary]

Hey my gpu is at 99% usage right now

[remote geode]

oh, I mean, it's alright

[elfin mural]

it needs some processing power to generate frames

[fervent stump]

Mine is at 0%

[velvet summit]

The problem with cable management is once you want to change something, it's a pain

And the bigger problem is that some cables may be too short, or some are ludacrisly long

[elfin mural]

or your frame pacing will be terrible

[granite estuary]

How

[remote geode]

would delegating some of those tasks to the igpu possible?

[fervent stump]

then keep it organized from the start so it’s not as bad

[velvet summit]

By not utilizing it

Ez

[elfin mural]

i think lsfg does that too

[fervent stump]

I sold my old gpu

[granite estuary]

Oh

[elfin mural]

it does offload to igpu with 4x mode

[granite estuary]

Why

[remote geode]

i can enable my igpu, i do have a k sku

[granite estuary]

The problem with cable management is the moment I get the pc booted I want nothing to do with touching it ever again

[remote geode]

gonna wait for my next pay day before ordering the 3060m for fun

[granite estuary]

Does anyone sim race here

[remote geode]

[elfin mural]

i have 4050m and it's pretty good for me

144hz 1080p

[remote geode]

my boyfriend has a 4050m as well

[elfin mural]

roblox is.. the game i wanna use frame gen on tho lmao

[granite estuary]

Nice

[remote geode]

i told him not to buy it but ig it performed better than i expected

[elfin mural]

it nails my 4050m so hard

[granite estuary]

I was on the verge of throwing my pc out the window for about a month

[fervent stump]

I want to so bad

[velvet summit]

There's a few people here in the server that do it more like, competitively

I just have a wheel and shifter but I don't really sim race

[remote geode]

LOL

my 1070ti can't render a warthunder clone at like more than 80fps

[elfin mural]

i barely sim race because i don't have a rig

[granite estuary]

I have a setup

[velvet summit]

I just like driving around in beamng

[granite estuary]

Want to upgrade it soon

[fervent stump]

I’d love to do it for fun daily

[fervent stump]

YES it’s sooo cool

[elfin mural]

but honestly

[elfin mural]

i wished i could've gone for radeon 7600s

more vram can be beneficial lel

[granite estuary]

I want to upgrade the wheel soon

[velvet summit]

R3? R5?

[fervent stump]

I’m in drawing class rn and it sucks im in 10th grade but it looks like an elementary schooler is drawing rn

[granite estuary]

R5

[elfin mural]

but for me 6gb is fine

[remote geode]

wait

[granite estuary]

Got it second hand for $300 Canadian

[velvet summit]

Yeah it looked bigger than the r3

[remote geode]

wrong pensive emote

[velvet summit]

Damn

[elfin mural]

lmao

[fervent stump]

For beamng?

[velvet summit]

Where did you find that

[granite estuary]

The entire bundle

My buddy upgraded

Gave me a sick deal

[velvet summit]

Oh

[granite estuary]

Went to the r12

[elfin mural]

beamng? i don't need more than 6

i just need more gpu power

[granite estuary]

Unironically this is my 2nd r5 bundle lol

[remote geode]

[elfin mural]

i can't run the ogc two map at all

[granite estuary]

Sold my first one 1.5 years ago

[remote geode]

anyways time to eat that spicy rahmyun

[granite estuary]

Won’t make that mistake again

[fervent stump]

Oh

[velvet summit]

I looked for any moza or fanatec deals before buying a g920 (also used) but couldn't find any

[elfin mural]

i just avoid that map anyway

after i found out that it's so heavy

[granite estuary]

Yeah sim racing is pretty niche

[velvet summit]

At least nobody within a hour drive

[granite estuary]

Fanatec also just went bankrupt lol

[little steppe]

Does soft means mid speed and xsoft means slow and mid is high speed on mousepads?

[fervent stump]

How much vram should you have for beamng max everything bc that’s like the biggest game I want to play rn besides vr stuff and roblox

[elfin mural]

it depends on your res lol

[fervent stump]

4k?

[granite estuary]

Or they “declared bankruptcy”

[elfin mural]

idk

as much as you want?

[fervent stump]

😭

[velvet summit]

Yeah they weren't quite bankrupt at the time, but I did notice how they were struggling to complete orders

[elfin mural]

but i think 12gb+

lol

[fervent stump]

There isn’t a recommended amount?

[fervent stump]

Alright

[granite estuary]

If I had the money I would’ve went with simagic

[elfin mural]

nope

[granite estuary]

Higher quality than moza but more expensive

[fervent stump]

I want a hand break, wheel, petals and gear shifter do most sets come with all of those? I don’t normally see a hand break

Ewwwww hand breaks are ugly https://mozaracing.com/product/moza-hbp-handbrake and id have to buy the table clamp separately

[granite estuary]

Depends on what you get

If you get a bundle like the r5 bundle comes with wheel, base and pedals

[granite estuary]

I think that looks cool lol

[fervent stump]

It’s to tall

I love watching this guy https://youtu.be/kiZEOGz29xs?si=PgIB_HMpIlh-99J8

[wary fjord]

deadpool is such a mood xD good thing they revive wolverine franchise

deadpool says hes gonna work till huge jackman became 90 hahaha

[granite estuary]

That’s how ebrakes are supposed to be lol

[fervent stump]

Oh can you like make it smaller?

[granite estuary]

?

Wdym

[fervent stump]

Shorter

[storm narwhal]

Mount it lower?

[granite estuary]

It’s meant to replicate a ebrake in a real race car

Usually they’re much taller than that

You just mount it lower like Segue said

Ebrake isn’t even really necessary tbh

I play dirt rally 2.0 without one and am only like 8 seconds off pace

[wary fjord]

i finally have courage to put gold mil max under my mouse switch buttons xD it works great

ow and i found out only the middle of the pins on the mouse switches matters

xD

wait the 3rd pin is the useless one.. 2 pins are use to configure debounce

[storm narwhal]

you put that under your mouse and it just works??

what kind of janky mouse you building lmao

[wary fjord]

u have to solder it just dont use flux

so it wont flow xD inside

[storm narwhal]

true

then it'll short out

[wary fjord]

not it wont short out xD

its just its useless if the solder go inside the milmax

u cant pull back ur switches anymore

the reason u want mil max to begin with is so u can hot swap the switch

[storm narwhal]

Ooh

[sinful blade]

Who’s out here gaming today

[granite estuary]

Me

[velvet summit]

brake

you do not want to break your brake

[velvet summit]

most sets are only with the basic stuff, like just the wheel, wheelbase, and pedals
anything extra you can add into your order as you wish

and the higher end wheelbases dont even come in a set; you pick and choose what you want to buy

for example, moza only has preconfigured sets for the r3 and r5; the wheelbases in the higher tiers than that like the r21 do not have a preconfigured set

well, technically there are more? but it's just the wheelbase + wheel, and nothing else

so if you want to desk mount it (which you shouldnt at that price point) you'll have to get a wheelbase desk bracket seperately (also from moza, or you can fab one yourself)

[granite estuary]

anything above id say 10nm you should get some sort of mounting solution

Instead of desk mounting

[velvet summit]

gonna rip your ikea cardboard desk into shreds fr

[granite estuary]

even 5nm is rough on my ikea desk lol

[velvet summit]

lmao

and if you're spending that much already, you wouldnt really want to make your experience like

racing on a desk while sitting on a chair with wheels

[granite estuary]

I plan on getting a aluminum profile chassis in the near future

[granite estuary]

yeah it is alright

That is what I do

just put a blanket behind my wheels

[velvet summit]

you could make a diy racing cockpit with wood for pretty cheap, somebody did it and saved a fair bit of money

they went to a junkyard and grabbed an old like sedan chair lmao

[granite estuary]

yeah but it will have flex 99% of the time

[velvet summit]

just have more triangle

[granite estuary]

That is fair

[velvet summit]

i wouldnt say you'll save like, an insane amount of money by doing it diy with wood, but you could shave off a few hundred and still get a fairly rigid frame

[granite estuary]

youll save a fair amount\

cheapest aluminum profile rigs are around $400

[wary fjord]

just buy a car

then disassemble it

[granite estuary]

lol

[wary fjord]

hook it up on your pc

[velvet summit]

if you spend 400 on a wood rig diy, you could get something considerably more rigid fr

[granite estuary]

yeah

idk I quite enjoy my setup

definitely upgrading my wheel soon

[twilit wren]

Should I buy a keychron barebone keyboard and insert and random key caps, or are the ones that come with keychron good

[craggy shoal]

A lot of people don't like the key caps but I'm ngl I enjoy them. They give the keyboard a nice thocc sound from the factory if you go with their K Pro (I think it's called that) Reds or Browns

If you're looking for a more budgeted option, I suggest actually getting the full keyboard rather than buying a barebones kit and buying everything else. Keyboards are a weird market, where paying less can actually lead to paying more lolll

[velvet summit]

personally i would like the barebones kits because the preassembled ones have "ok" switches

you can pick whatever keyswitches to use if you buy barebones

[unreal trail]

[craggy shoal]

I personally like the stock switches lol

The Browns aren't very tactile but I kinda prefer it for when I'm gaming

I still want a new set of Boba U4T switches for my V3

[wary fjord]

those switches u wont hear them anyway xD if u have a good headphone

xD

[velvet summit]

Not really

Very good headphones could either be open back or closed back

[devout forum]

Okay but hotswap?

Like the preassembled boards SHOULD all be hotswap ones

I can only think of ONE that isn't

you can always replace the caps/switches later in a hotswap board

[velvet summit]

Yeah, but I don't want to buy a board and immediately switch the switches

[devout forum]

It depends on personal pref

but at the very least you have a keeb you can just plug in and use right away

[devout forum]

I recommend getting a built keeb first, you can always mod yourself

[wary fjord]

its night and day when i got my mech keeb ur wired to hold up once u hear the tick noise instead of checking if ur input was executed on the screen

[fervent stump]

Yea honestly I don’t need a lot I just mainly want to plant it up to my desk and have a shifter, wheel and pedals since I still want the driving experience but the other things are to much I think now

[wary fjord]

cheaper mech keeb are so damn many now with hot swappable

like under 15 bucks

software and the pcb is all i care when im buying mech keeb

[craggy shoal]

What is the cheapest optiplex type pc that’ll run GTA?

[craggy shoal]

Probably anything with an i7 from the past five years, 16GB of memory, and a somewhat modern GPU

3060 barely runs cos

[granite estuary]

Barely runs what

[rapid fulcrum]

Cod

[granite estuary]

That just is not true

[young matrix]

6700xt or something

[rapid fulcrum]

My friend has it with an i7

[young matrix]

Which i7

[rapid fulcrum]

idk I asked him if he’s getting high fps he said not that much

so probably like 80

[young matrix]

Very helpful

??

[rapid fulcrum]

Should I ask

[young matrix]

Yes

[granite estuary]

What cod are you playing because aint no way a 3060 is struggling to run cod

[unreal trail]

When you try to make a simple desktop application but god says "Null reference exception"

[rapid fulcrum]

Geeeez

[young matrix]

Which ryzen 7 💀

[rapid fulcrum]

GPU 3060 12GB

5800OX

4800x

Bro

5800x

[young matrix]

Well

6750xt should be enough for wz

7800xt or 7700xt

Those too

I wouldnt buy a 4060/4060ti cuz both of those suck hard

[rapid fulcrum]

I thought 4060 it was cheaper and faster

[young matrix]

No

4060ti isnt much of an improvement over a 3070 iirc

[rapid fulcrum]

Is there a 3070 under 1000 dollars

[young matrix]

Idk

Im not in your country dude you gotta go check

Get a 6750xt or 7700xt

Theyre both better than a 3070

[winged wedge]

check tech deals

[rapid fulcrum]

U sure

[rapid fulcrum]

Okay I’ll see

[winged wedge]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/156343477397?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=92chrSivS8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=r8em-zv_qyc&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

that has a 3070

its around 600 dollars

[mighty hazel]

One of them is

[young matrix]

Yes

[young matrix]

He means 1000 uae

[winged wedge]

oh

[rapid fulcrum]

Doesn’t ship here

[rapid fulcrum]

No

1000$ worth of usd

[young matrix]

Oh

Shouldve said that

[unreal trail]

[winged wedge]

what state

[rapid fulcrum]

Thought it was obvious

[rapid fulcrum]

Any I can come collect it

[winged wedge]

there was a 4070 that i found for like 650

ima see if i can find it again

[rapid fulcrum]

Is 4060 Ti i7 16GB good for 800$

[winged wedge]

yea

thats a good deal

just upgrade the ram to 32 gb

[rapid fulcrum]

okay I have a 16GB laying around

Anyway

[granite estuary]

The setup 😎

Time to crash a car a hundred times

[rapid fulcrum]

Tis fire

need to learn from u

[granite estuary]

Do not learn from me

I hit so many trees

[rapid fulcrum]

[granite estuary]

Rally is hard

[opaque sedge]

Man redditors aren’t letting this guy have any peace 😭

https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/s/K1ImLYYqM6

[velvet summit]

do you use clutch or just auto

[granite estuary]

I use paddle shifters

Planning on getting a rally style push pull shifter soon

[velvet summit]

i mean, you could paddle shift and use clutch

[granite estuary]

Oh

No I don’t use clutch

Rally cars haven’t used the clutch to shift since the 90’s I think

It’s all sequential

[rancid juniper]

Lossless frame scaling is so good for 60fps locked games

I wonder if I can oc my monitor up to 180hz lmao

Probably not worth the 10hz bump from 170

But I mean 60x3

[velvet summit]

iirc sequential requires a clutch usually for launch, but shifting between gears doesnt

[tranquil pebble]

and then you have DCTs which are a whole different story lol

[granite estuary]

Yeah for launch

That’s about it

I just have the clutch set to a random button for launch lol

[velvet summit]

lmao

[granite estuary]

Clutch is expensive to barely use

What game

[velvet summit]

beamng

[velvet summit]

i think these are just regular organic or soft whatever the term for this type of pad is again

[granite estuary]

Is that game fun

[velvet summit]

it's squealing like metal brakes

[mortal grail]

Disc

Lol

[velvet summit]

i'd say so

[elfin mural]

they're metal discs

[mortal grail]

Disc are usually alloy composites or as much as simple steel even

[granite estuary]

What is the point of it lol

[velvet summit]

i meant metallic pads

[granite estuary]

Is it a sim

[elfin mural]

the brake pads are just standard so they're fading

[granite estuary]

Or just crash cars

[velvet summit]

yes and yes

[elfin mural]

it can be a sim if you want

[chrome portal]

anyone know how to make a good gif

[modern imp]

TSR at 100% is just heavily improved UE TAA

[elfin mural]

it has pretty good physics

[chrome portal]

sharex gifs are so mid for some reason

[mortal grail]

BeamNG is honestly one of the better sims rn

[elfin mural]

^

[velvet summit]

honestly i just use ezgif.com

[granite estuary]

You know what I just remembered

[rancid juniper]

vaseline ah taa

[mortal grail]

iRacing if you have a wallet

[elfin mural]

clutches actually have a bite point in beamng

[modern imp]

TSR is good?

[granite estuary]

I had a $200 newegg gift card because my gpu went on sale a day after I bought it

[mortal grail]

The rest have fundamental problems rn

[granite estuary]

Forgot about it

And it’s expired

Rough

[rancid juniper]

it does look somewhat sharp in this game

[elfin mural]

newegg gift cards never expire

[rancid juniper]

which is a plus lol

[modern imp]

the game has a heavy sharpening filter on all AA solutions iirc

[granite estuary]

It wasn’t a gift card it was a redemption thing

[rancid juniper]

OH?

[elfin mural]

unless that specific one has an expiration date

ah

[granite estuary]

Because my gpu went on sale

Oh well

wait tm

[mortal grail]

Since a majority of the gaming market isn't on mid range

[safe cape]

imo worst time to buy a gpu

for ue5

just wait

[rancid juniper]

RTX 6090 will run UE5

trust

[safe cape]

no

[mortal grail]

If you're shopping for a gpu just on one game yeah

Not wise

[rancid juniper]

buys 4090 for minecraft

👌

[elfin mural]

majority of the gamers still run 1650

or even worse

[safe cape]

4090 is a 1080p card

intel hd graphics

[elfin mural]

i still see roblox kids using windows 7 on 4th gen laptops

[mortal grail]

I mean fact is most people are on 6-8 gb rn

So I'm not worried anymore about a game running like ass

[elfin mural]

true

[mortal grail]

Cos devs want everyone to play so

[mortal grail]

It'll get better

[elfin mural]

im not even worried about games much

😭

when the gpu so bad it DE-RENDERS the character

[dusk knot]

Amd>>>ryzen

[mortal grail]

True

[modern imp]

Keep in mind that is the unreal engine "cinematic" preset

Which isn't even exposed in most games because it's pointlessly demanding

[granite estuary]

Man I really do not want to work

Rough life

[mortal grail]

So just more sending the point home that it's just not a great baseline to work with

[modern imp]

Yeah the cinematic preset is pointless unless you got a gpu a decade from now

To bruteforce it

[mortal grail]

I really have no expectations of games these days

Let down so many times by the AAA money engine

💀

[modern imp]

Might as well keep it in. Allows it to be a relevant benchmark for longer

[mortal grail]

Now they have us expecting a bad release, next they'll charge us for patches and optimisation options

"You will own nothing and you will enjoy what you buy"

Ahh I feel so bloody minded rn
