An animal died for that

[chrome portal]

Nice and clean

[opaque sedge]

How shameful…

[chrome portal]

Tastes great

Humans don’t respect their fellow members in society and fail to remember to respect the animal that had to forfeit its life for their nourishment

Veganism might be for you

You would enjoy soy milk

No animals harmed

[opaque sedge]

Huh

Salmon is rich with omega 3 fatty acids

Very good for you

You dislike fish?

That’s chill

Not for everyone

[last mango]

Valid, i just know it's healthy

[opaque sedge]

Kind of wanna try shellfish ngl

Like mussels and oysters

[opaque sedge]

Oooh trout

[chrome portal]

That fish was very nice

sushi/sashimi is god's gift to the food world

i can eat so much of it

[opaque sedge]

Might have gotten the wrong one tho

[opaque sedge]

My local mall has a sushi buffet with a an expensive ticket kind of wanna go there… but i’ve never gone to a restaurant alone

[dawn tiger]

never be afraid to do things alone

you'll never see those people again anyway

[opaque sedge]

Idk man if i went alone i would prolly just get depressed seeing other families eating happily

[chrome portal]

Trout might seem simple at first, but it's all about the subtlety. The delicate, almost sweet flavor of the fish, combined with the earthy notes of the skin, creates a balance that’s anything but basic. When cooked just right, there's a gentle flakiness that carries hints of the environment it was caught in—whether it’s a fresh mountain stream or a cold river. It’s an orchestra of gentle, natural flavors that come together in harmony, offering a taste of nature in its purest form.

anyone know why whenever i play a youtube video or something on my 2nd monitor my fps drops pretty hard

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bbxmHG

@idle nexus I just got back to my PC right now. I'm in BIOS

[tranquil pebble]

it might be time for me try connecting video cards from the 90s to a modern PC and see how Windows likes it (or implodes lol)

[fair onyx]

I honestly don't really know what else to do to try and fix my issues. Or at least, not what next step I should take in order

[sweet phoenix]

What monitors

[chrome mirage]

My RGB on my aio and ram is broken and not listening to the software. I wish I didn't do an RGB build.

[tranquil pebble]

use the iGPU to play videos on the second monitor to take the load off your main GPU

[fair onyx]

I tried that, and it doesn't work as good as you would hope 😅

The iGPU will still need to copy from itself to the main DGPU, unless you plug it into the iGPU directly, but then it might not be able to run it fully

[tranquil pebble]

this is what I meant, the second monitor plugged into igpu

[fair onyx]

yeah, that might not always work tho, depending on the monitor

[tranquil pebble]

its at least worth trying

[fair onyx]

Yeah, fair

[tranquil pebble]

if you have an iGPU and a dGPU may as well try to use both

[fair onyx]

I try to, but in order to do so, I still need to connect to my DGPU, which means my iGPU does the work, but my DGPU still has to copy and display it, so it doesn't help much

[tranquil pebble]

I had success with that on a 4790k a long time ago

[fair onyx]

like my firefox runs on iGPU, but playing a youtube video still lowers my DGPU perf

[rancid juniper]

aint the dgpu suppose to deal with it with their decoding engine?

video decode or whatever

it shouldn't tank perf

[fair onyx]

it def does when the DGPU is heavily used

also, at least on my 3090, the decoding engines are ass

insanely inefficient compared to just using CPU. Like for streaming on discord. 1080p 60fps uses ~180 watts on my 3090, while 1440p 60 uses about 30 watts on CPU

[rancid juniper]

lmfao dayum

[silver sparrow]

i mean its a 3090, what do you expect

its not like it was built to be efficient

[fair onyx]

yeah, but I thought NVEC was supposed to be a good option for streaming/video decode

evidently not 😅

I just use CPU wherever I can

[silver sparrow]

thats the part they dont tell you about, yeah intel is technically like one of the top for gaming cpu's.... as long as you dont mind using like 10x the power for minimal gains over competition

[fair onyx]

Thats not at all what I am talking about, but I get what you mean

[tranquil pebble]

Intel Extreme Edition never went away, it just became K SKUs lol

[silver sparrow]

its the best!.... at using a lot of power for a not so much amount of perf... BUT ITS ON TOP

[rancid juniper]

funny how its the opposite for me, i have to use my dgpu for videos and other idle stuff (RX 7800 XT) because it uses less watts than the cpu (13600k)

[fair onyx]

I mean, thats not even true. The 7800X3D dominates in a ton of games even compared to a cracked out 14900KS 😅

[fair onyx]

yeah, IDK

[tranquil pebble]

and as a bonus the 7800x3d doesnt try to off itself

[fair onyx]

I wish I could more consistently decode video from firefox on my iGPU. But it seems like it will just use my 3090 no matter what the GPU preference is

[silver sparrow]

yeah, but imagine if intel gets off their ass and actually becomes competitive

[fair onyx]

*Anymore

[fair onyx]

the 285k looks pretty damn scary, so here is hoping

[rancid juniper]

they better not push their cpus too far and also double check their fab process

[silver sparrow]

its not like its a special sauce that AMD uses, its litterally just extra fast cache that makes it special

[rancid juniper]

i legit think they were rushing just to get a few points more than amd

bad move

[fair onyx]

They aren't fabbing them, its TSMC, so its less likely to have huge issues

[viral heron]

whats an iGPU

[fair onyx]

assuming thats a troll question lol

[rancid juniper]

so the oxidation problems are intel's design issue or from TSMC?

[tranquil pebble]

graphics processor built into cpu

[fair onyx]

That much I am not sure about. But AFAIK, intel fabbed the 13th and 14th gen sku's

[silver sparrow]

Intel cant copy AMD, cause they are sending so much power into their cpu's that they would fry the cache on top, amd can do it, as long as they limit the processor a bit, but its not like it matters that much when the perf gains outweight the small amount lost

[rancid juniper]

intel throws efficiency out the window

[fair onyx]

Yeah

[rancid juniper]

who needs that anyways???

[fair onyx]

I do, thats for sure

https://aoc.com/us/gaming/products/monitors/c27g2

[rancid juniper]

enters 400w ah reactor rectangle

[silver sparrow]

intel needs to get their power consumption in check before they can ever get anything close to compete with X3D TBH

[rancid juniper]

do yall think intel will make a similar large cache lineup???

[fair onyx]

if their new desktop chips are anything like Lunar Lake, they will have a huge power improvement. Lunar lake mobile chips are impressive AF

[silver sparrow]

only if they find a way to not fry the chip with the amount of heat they produce

[rancid juniper]

real

[fair onyx]

Intel was talking about glass substrate and fiber optic data interconnects by 2026 IIRC

[silver sparrow]

the cache is built ontop of the cpu, making cooling a bigger issue, and considering cooling is already a issue, they cant do it

i could probably throw a slab of cheese on a amd cpu and wouldnt have to worry about it overheating

[fair onyx]

I'm very happy with my CPU, even if it is Intel. Its not the old slow one I had, and its been great for me, so its all I need

that 7700k was pure suffering...

[rancid juniper]

atleast its not fx

[silver sparrow]

idk, i ran a i7 4790- wait basically the same thing as a 7700k

not like intel innovated much XD

[rancid juniper]

man

imagine a world without ryzen

damn...

[silver sparrow]

i forget sometimes that like 4th-7th gen had like 0 improvement and were all refreshes

maybe even 8th gen idk

i know 9th gen was somewhat cool

[rancid juniper]

same-lake
same-lake
same-lake

14nm PLUS INFINITY

[silver sparrow]

its like wow 4th gen intel is like 10 generations old... but still is like still usable today... which is just sad

[fair onyx]

Yeah, its kinda insane. The 7700k was like 10% ahead on average. So sad

[silver sparrow]

10% ahead... 3 generations later....

[fair onyx]

usable for browsing and stuff, yeah

[silver sparrow]

i could still game on mine

[fair onyx]

I couldn't imagine being stuck with my 7700k still... That thing was so many problems, and soooo slow

[silver sparrow]

like for example cyberpunk 2077 runs 60fps 1080p high preset

[fair onyx]

I have a 12600k now, and its been infinitely better. Its just a solid little CPU that does what I need. Is it super fast? No. But does it do what I ask of it with no issues, no stability problems, and pretty good efficiency? Yeah

[silver sparrow]

its actually beyond funny how little intel has innovated since 4th gen

[fair onyx]

and I got it for $150 brand new. Got a great deal on it

[fair onyx]

well, up until 12th gen

12th gen was a massive leap over 11th

[deep parcel]

10th gen was also a huge leap over 9th gen

[fair onyx]

IDk about huge, but it was an improvement

but yeah, 12th gen was a huge deal lmao

across the board too. Even the mid and low range saw huge improvements

[silver sparrow]

yeah then we just forget about 13th and 14th gen as they decided to -

[opaque sedge]

Oh nice they’ve added fsr 3.1

[fair onyx]

yeaahhh... haha

[silver sparrow]

woopsies my message crashed before i could send it all

[opaque sedge]

This is gonna be awesome

[fair onyx]

I am REALLY glad I went 12600k over 13400

also, side note. Did ya'll know that Intels new celeron CPU's are faster than a 7700k now? 😭

[silver sparrow]

massive leap in general holy hell

[tranquil pebble]

7 zip loves multithread

[fair onyx]

Yeah. 12th gen was like... one of the biggest generational improvements on x86 ever TBH

alderlake was MEAN when it came out. IIRC, it beat AMD on like all fronts for most of its cycle

and my bad, 7700k is not celeron, its pentium now

A pentium gold would clap a 7700k in gaming now... what a crazy ass world lmao

[silver sparrow]

in games though im barely even seeing much more than a 100% improvement... which for... 8 GENERATIONS later.... thats a yikes

[sinful blade]

Hey really quick question

How much is this worth

[random osprey]

why are you green. have you always been green or is this account with same name as umbreon

[fair onyx]

I mean, thats true and also not true. There is the GPU bottleneck now, and lots more games benefit from more cores. So a 4 core vs a 6 core with the same single core could be up to 50% faster in some games

[fair onyx]

dude, I can't read that 😭

7820x?

[sinful blade]

Yeah

[fair onyx]

7920x?

[sinful blade]

8

[silver sparrow]

im vip 😭 even though ive been in here since 2019 ive barely managed to get ahead in the role game

[sinful blade]

Oh frick

He’s selling it for $75

[fair onyx]

lmao

oh wait

[silver sparrow]

rank #113 in the server though so like nearly in the top 100 active in the server

[fair onyx]

yeah

looks like used ones are worth almost nothing now

[sinful blade]

Looks like it’s a 3600~ equivalent

[fervent stump]

Is chewing gum in the shower weird?

[fair onyx]

Never thought of that. I'd say no

[silver sparrow]

not something id probably do, but like i wouldnt say its really, weird?

[fair onyx]

I used to eat food in the shower when I was younger ||I do still sometimes when I have no time lmfao||

[fervent stump]

Yea i do it sometimes and my friends say its weird

They don’t tell me why though

[fervent stump]

What type of food

[fair onyx]

Honestly... When I am sick, my mom always gets me McDonalds (Cause her mom would do the same to comfort her)

So the best is 100% chicken nuggets while in a hot shower to help me breathe better 😅

@idle nexus BOOM

We do a little cleaning

now for my AI drive... this one is gonna be harder

[fervent stump]

Hmmmm that’s definitely something

Just did

[fair onyx]

that'll help

[mighty hazel]

I remember when these were like 600 a pop

[fair onyx]

yeah, back when 8 core was insane, and not modern day budget end lol

[mighty hazel]

I mean one of the best gaming CPU’s has 8 cores

7800x3d

Just faster cores and 3D cache

[fair onyx]

yeah, but I was meaning general core count. Now, 8 cores could even be a budget CPU

[mortal grail]

Was scrolling through youtube then this popped up.

[fervent stump]

Idk what a core cache any of that stuff is but I know the 7800x3d is the best for gaming sooo that’s why I wanted to get it

Nzxt is alright as long as u don’t get an h510

That case is like a hotbox 💀

I can't remember apart from their psus, anything worth buying from nzxt

[mortal grail]

For a long time

[fair onyx]

Wonder which one had a higher chance of burning down your house... H510, or 7800X3D on launch week

[fervent stump]

I got bullied here for trying to want one

[mighty hazel]

H1 much higher chance. And it actually did

[mortal grail]

I'm the opposite, I'm an anti-shill for nzxt and coarse hair

[opaque sedge]

||deez nuts|| are worth buying

[mighty hazel]

It’s a good case but kinda expensive to some ppl

[fervent stump]

You don’t like nzxt?

[mortal grail]

I don't. Objectively terrible

[opaque sedge]

Nobody sensible pc builder does

[fervent stump]

I may have got a nicer one for about the same price and 7 fans

[mortal grail]

[velvet summit]

ok this time this isnt my type of video to watch lmfao

oh

[fair onyx]

I think more 7800X3D's combusted their boards tho... I wonder what it was based off of the actual numbers bought vs numbers thermally destroyed

[velvet summit]

the reply disappeared

[mortal grail]

[opaque sedge]

May i ask

What video?

[mortal grail]

Reminds me of the space ai videos I posted a while back

My friend’s

Hmph, how inflated the price is…

[fair onyx]

There def were more

[mighty hazel]

The average nzxt pc build on yt is like 2k and has a 3060

[fair onyx]

multiple different ones just here

[mighty hazel]

Pretty sure most are just focusing on aesthetic

[fervent stump]

I want a 4080s and nzxt stuff

4080s is good

FUNNY GIF

HEE HEE

[mortal grail]

[fervent stump]

Nooooo I tried blowing a bubble with gum and the gum went on a flight

[mortal grail]

Fun fact

It took corsair losing their 360mm aio, their, $600 in some places, corsair h150i

To a $30 thermalright

For them after many years to update that design they were milking for all it's worth

[fervent stump]

Btw I just want my aio for a screen

[mortal grail]

NZXT isn't that far different, I think they're still on last gen performance even now

Their fans and elite cases lend no confidence to that

[fervent stump]

I don’t care about the cooling of it I just want the screen and the looks of a aio

[mighty hazel]

Someone in overclocking server said their cpu went to 7ghz on that aio 💀💀

[fair onyx]

yeah, no lol

[mortal grail]

7ghz on idle

[fervent stump]

Can I have the link to the server?

[fair onyx]

7ghz is LN2 lol

boomf

[mighty hazel]

It’s .gg/overclocking

[fervent stump]

Ty

[mortal grail]

@mighty hazel someone also in that server recommended EK aio's constantly until yesterday, when EK went into insolvency

Those people he recommended to, no longer have a manufacturer warranty if EK goes under in the next month

[fervent stump]

It says expired

[mortal grail]

There's a reason I consider that place brainrot

[fervent stump]

This is the best aio

[pliant berry]

I have ek aio, had it for a while though

[mortal grail]

Yeah me too, before they dropped the ball

They were good

I still see corsair shills buying them

[mighty hazel]

Idk who did that tbh. But what they went into insolvency? 😭

[mighty hazel]

Oh let me see then

[mortal grail]

#tech-industry-news

[pliant berry]

the aio was pretty decent. their custom stuff i have heard very mixed things on

[fervent stump]

Why does the price of the 7800x3d change soooo much

[mortal grail]

Insolvency is imminent if their 4 bank partners froze their account

[gentle canyon]

least obvious rage bait

[mortal grail]

Kenzie tier tbh

[fervent stump]

IMO it’s my fav aio

[gentle canyon]

nzxt fans make me angry

the screen is nice tho

[mighty hazel]

It’s .gg/overclock

[fervent stump]

The price makes me angry

[mighty hazel]

it should work now

[gentle canyon]

yeah cause its nzxt

its like the apple of pcs

you pay for the brand imo

[fervent stump]

[gentle canyon]

ignore me with a h6 flow

but

[fervent stump]

I like their stuff but not the price

[fervent stump]

Yep and I’m fine with that

Ok

I kinda consider noctua to be more the apple tho

In the video shown above. Somebody shows their CPU hitting 7GHZ for a split second, and it causes it to hit 104c

[mental yoke]

are you booting up?

[past totem]

Yea everything seems fine

[sinful blade]

You’re dying

That’s 100% what it means

That’s your life support light

wiztree is so much faster

[past totem]

Ooooh stop it you

[fair onyx]

Really? I might have to try it

I like WinDirStat a lot

does WizTree let you delete more than 1 file at a time? Thats my biggest gripe with WinDirStat

[pliant berry]

I don't normally delete stuff within wiztree but you can multi select blocks

[fair onyx]

Thanks, I will for sure check that out

[velvet summit]

i believe so

[tacit geode]

yeah

you can

[velvet summit]

i only really use it to find large files/folders though and delete it in explorer or the specific app

similar to ghosty

but it's so much faster than windirstat

[pliant berry]

yup

[fair onyx]

gotcha. I will try it out right now

[velvet summit]

scan the whole drive in like 10 seconds vs like 10 mins lmfao

honestly less than 10 secs

[fair onyx]

windirstart doesn't take too long. Like a minute I think for my 2TB very file dense drive

trying WizTree tho

oh WOW

yeah, ok

WizTree is way faster lmao

[velvet summit]

lmao

yeah i had a similar reaction when i switched to it

[fair onyx]

oh man, and it updates way faster when things are deleted. This is massive, thanks guys <3

got a few files...

[tacit geode]

wiztree better by a long shot

[velvet summit]

yeah i switched to it in like

2019? i was still on a hdd boot drive at that time so it made a HUGE difference

[fair onyx]

yeah, I am part of WizTree supremacy now for sure

[fervent stump]

Good night guys

Intendercoin when

[serene wyvern]

never. crypto is a waste of time. Sell all coins as soon as possible and buy something nice for yourself.

I used all my eth and bitcoin to fund 2 high end pc's and multiple synthesizers.

no regrets

[mortal grail]

I want to buy into a rival coin to show theo I deserve to be paid better

Help me with this

[north crescent]

Been a while since I last looked at Geekbench scores. Is there no way to filter scores on their site? Just wanted to quickly see where abouts 268V would stand and I cant quickly do that

[serene wyvern]

hmm

[modern imp]

hit baseline and then search

it does a comparison with what you seach

for context Lunarlake is 4P+4LPE/8t (no hyperthreading)

[serene wyvern]

I tried using userbenchmark earlier this week for the first time in years. At first it forced me to play some horrible game and then it told me that the server timed out.

[north crescent]

Well, UBM going to UBM

[serene wyvern]

if they only knew how long it took me to accomplish their silly task with an nvs 310 at 5fps

[mortal grail]

I'll never get over the faq they have at the bottom of the page

[north crescent]

I once did one of the games they had, was whacked out to see a game in a benchmark but eh

[north crescent]

Ah I see

[velvet summit]

idek how they even managed to SEO their way up to the top google result

[serene wyvern]

I haven't bought "new" pc gear in years, but I recently developed an addiction to buying old macs and various dells. I was trying to benchmark a dell 5810 with a quad core xeon and nvs 310 gpu prior to upgrades

Goodwill keeps taking all my money

and I have about 10 ancient pc's to prove it.

[north crescent]

Reddit marketers: "Wait we get paid?"
Smth I saw on reddit going over that

[mortal grail]

Every time I poke around on there I find something new and tin foil hat fueled:

[north crescent]

just one more PC

[serene wyvern]

I don't need them. Its a coping mechanism. I just keep throwing away money in an effort to overcome anxiety and crippling depression.

[velvet summit]

"broader feature set (rt/dlss3.0)"

[serene wyvern]

but its cheaper than therapy and drugs

you would think that ratings on hardware should have an objective look and explaination on it

this is quite the opposite lmfao

[sinful blade]

[velvet summit]

if you contrast this with what a site like, say rtings writes

[mortal grail]

Pigeons are drones levels of fear for AMD double agents

[velvet summit]

this is absolutely like just the amd hater blog

Have you tried modding cases?

Like old unusable cases

[serene wyvern]

nothing is unusable

[serene wyvern]

But modding stuff takes too long. I just keep buying crap from goodwill and ebay. I fix it up and give it away. Somehow I still have more computers than I know what to do with.

Current project us a dell 5810 workstation. I am putting in 32gb of ddr4, 14core xeon, and vega 56. Total invested so far is around $160. Probably going to give this one to one of my kids.

[mortal grail]

Do you think they're procreating

Still trying to find a valid use for the 20 year old mac mini that I invested money in and put a 512gb ssd and 1tb hdd into.

I have issues

[mortal grail]

Such is being a pc hobbyist

I have a pile of hardware too

I don't talk about it a lot, but the best cure imo is buying some boxes and making the pile look neat and tidy

[sinful blade]

Give some to me

[mortal grail]

Harder to make it disappear when it doesn't look like it should be there

[sinful blade]

[serene wyvern]

having old hardware sitting around is one issue. having old hardware that you don't need but spend money on to get functional for no valid reason is insantity

[sinful blade]

I got a PSU for a pc

I make it work

[mortal grail]

Yeah well I'm guilty of it too

Well for ME it’s the best gets everything done right and looks purrfect doing it

I may get a used one since I don’t wanna pay 300

[sinful blade]

It functions literally the exact same or worse than a $60 AIO

[rancid juniper]

this game has politics??? no wonder why it died like crazy

[mortal grail]

That same $60 aio also sells with a screen

[craggy shoal]

I only need like one motherboard and two more PSUs and I can have two more custom-built PCs (they wouldn't be great at all lol)

[sinful blade]

I have my PSU if you want it

[fervent stump]

Is it white, 360 aio, big screen and I can put whatever I want on it?

In the last year I bought 2 imacs, one mac 5,1 pro. One old g5 mac tower. 2 mac laptops that were usable, 2 mac latops that were trash. 2 dell laptops, one dell mini pc with 4th gen intel. one dell m6800 laptop with 4th gen intel (so much I/O for a laptop) mac mini from 2014. a commodore 64. my friends keep giving me old pc's. One gave me an old nf7-s with athlon 2600+ and ati 9600xt that has sit in his basement for 10 years and has literal rust on most of the hardware.

[sinful blade]

what the frick

[mortal grail]

Go join hwbot and bench them

Newegg has a benching team, they LOVE random hardware

[serene wyvern]

trying to buy my way out of depression. Still not working. Need to buy more.

Delete it from existence

[rancid juniper]

really bro?

[serene wyvern]

was told life was pay to play, but running out of money

[rancid juniper]

you gonna attempt a $250 aio?

[mortal grail]

How the hell is that 250

[velvet summit]

i probably wouldnt buy a used aio, even if they claim it was only lightly used

[mortal grail]

You're just trolling at this point

[velvet summit]

also 250 for an aio with no warranty is 💀

[dawn tiger]

always trolling

nzxt troll

[craggy shoal]

NZXT slander is real and she hasn't even bought it yet 💀💀💀

[fervent stump]

I can delete the post from existence by buying it

[mortal grail]

Ok Kenzie

[serene wyvern]

modern used aio is a no go. Old first gen corsairs would probably be useful if they aren't dry.

[fervent stump]

Blud shut up I told you already

[fervent stump]

@dusk knot

[dawn tiger]

some aio's you can refill yeah?

[mortal grail]

Everyone needs a hobby. Nothing wrong with an open interest

[dawn tiger]

i thought some had a port

[rancid juniper]

wait wait wait, have you bought anything for these past few weeks?

[mortal grail]

You can ping a mod for me saying that but when you keep openly inviting aggression like this I can't say it's undeserved

[sinful blade]

Where’s a gm bot when you need one

[mortal grail]

I've been very neutral so far

[serene wyvern]

wait is kenzie still here?

[velvet summit]

nah

[sinful blade]

Wait who’s Kenzie

[mortal grail]

Kenzie bankrupted themselves out of the server @serene wyvern

[past totem]

im kenzie

[sinful blade]

I’m missing critical Newegg lore

[rancid juniper]

wut

[elfin mural]

that was random

[velvet summit]

at least kenzie sold their pc for a car

[past totem]

im not kenzie im batman

[mortal grail]

I dunno if you were here, they went through several 90/80Ti class gpus and laptops before they finally had no buying power left

[serene wyvern]

I harrass kenzie almost everyday in another server

[rancid juniper]

why buy from a shady seller when you can get it from amazon @fervent stump

🗿

[mortal grail]

Heh, does the server start with N and end with T

[serene wyvern]

we have become friends

[elfin mural]

kraken 360

worst way to buy an aio

[rancid juniper]

hey man i know nothing about aios

lmfao

[craggy shoal]

Starts with an N and ends with an E for me

[mortal grail]

Tmw new is cheaper

[velvet summit]

cheaper than that used listing even 💀

[rancid juniper]

maybe this one is good

[serene wyvern]

I bought a cooler master AIO, cut it up and added custom tubing and added my 2080 to it.

[elfin mural]

at least that's cheaper

[north crescent]

LETS GO GAMBLING

[craggy shoal]

I think this one is actually good lol

[mortal grail]

A ryou being cheaper ☠️☠️☠️

[elfin mural]

and probably better

[rancid juniper]

😂

[rancid juniper]

AW DANG IT

[elfin mural]

the ryou is actually decent i believe

[rancid juniper]

yessir

[sinful blade]

Let’s gamble our money

[velvet summit]

tbf the used listing is the kraken elite but like
not a huge difference lol

[elfin mural]

just mad expensive normally

[mortal grail]

Back when these were still a great idea. Love it

[fervent stump]

I have to make the money like I’ve been saying this whole time

[mortal grail]

I love gpu mods

[elfin mural]

if you have to make money for it, why buy such expensive parts anyway?

[rancid juniper]

dang you're gonna miss this then

[craggy shoal]

Why buy NZXT?
The cooling/performance ❌
Good quality ❌
The logo ✅

[dawn tiger]

holy crap oneplus phones are nice

[serene wyvern]

It was a horrible idea at the time. Cheapest AIO on the market. I even added a second 240mm rad from an old corsair aio that died at some point.

[fervent stump]

I don’t want to be called Kenzie and a mod told people to stop calling me that

[mortal grail]

Did it work out tho

[elfin mural]

you can code, 3d model, game, game dev in a modest midranger

[rancid juniper]

indeed they are

[dawn tiger]

you forgot to troll the Newegg server because we know it's bad

[fervent stump]

Either the ID cooling one in my about me or the nzxt kraken elite

[dawn tiger]

just bought the 12

it's amazeballs

[serene wyvern]

It worked well enought for a while. Now the pump is seized and rarely moves any water

[velvet summit]

the reason why you're being flamed so much is because you keep bringing up nzxt in conversations that dont really have anything to do with it

💀

[rancid juniper]

so... you dont want the asus

[craggy shoal]

She's not trolling (crazy I know). She genuinely wants NZXT lmao

[rancid juniper]

i see

i see

mmhm

[mortal grail]

Then I don't know why this conversation is being dragged out. I also told people not to get invested in that either but you need to not provoke engagement

[serene wyvern]

Thought about ripping the pump out of the loop and adding in an old ddc pump I have laying around and just using it as a block.

[fervent stump]

Yea and these jerks come at me for wanting a company that’s overpriced

[mortal grail]

It takes two to tango

[rancid juniper]

tangogameworks

[dawn tiger]

nah, they post about it here because they know we don't like it. if they really liked it, they'd be in the nzxt discord

[elfin mural]

Tango like agent 47

[sinful blade]

I’m getting married in 7 days and I don’t have a pc

[fervent stump]

Im in the server

[sinful blade]

Upsetting

[velvet summit]

it's fine to want to buy something that other people disagree on, but the problem is you just keep bringing up the topic of nzxt so the conversation keeps repeating over and over

[dawn tiger]

Hasselblad cameras, 80W fast charging, never knew a phone could do this

[mortal grail]

As we've all made our opinions of it clear, genuinely surprised this topic keeps being dragged up

[dawn tiger]

Trolling is when someone posts or comments online to ‘bait’ people, which means deliberately provoking an argument or emotional reaction. In some cases they say things they don’t even believe, just to cause drama.

[rancid juniper]

well congrats anyways

[mortal grail]

I know what trolling is

[dawn tiger]

there's answer

[serene wyvern]

are you though. If so I will harrass you here by your chosen name here

[mortal grail]

I was one of the first to be sus of it

Want a time stamp?

[elfin mural]

Oneplus is nice, but I prefer google and ss imo

[mortal grail]

I'm giving them a chance

[craggy shoal]

lol

[velvet summit]

ss? samsung?

[fervent stump]

what?

[elfin mural]

S23 FE isn't the best phone there is, but it's pretty nice

[north crescent]

Ehh, only if you know how to flash custom ROMs. Last I checked OOS was still kinda flaky with random updates. Kinda need to do LineageOS or smth I find.

[elfin mural]

ya samsung

[dawn tiger]

Cheaper than pixel 9. plus VZW requires ULtimate plan crap to upgrade cheap

[elfin mural]

Fair enough

[mortal grail]

Let's defuse this topic and move on. No more nzxt discussions for the day

[velvet summit]

ngl i havent seen samsung abbreviated like that before lol

[serene wyvern]

so not kenzie. will remember

[dawn tiger]

polus plus pixel did us dirty by making 9 Pro small

[mortal grail]

No more kenzie calling

[dawn tiger]

Pro XL only big phone

[elfin mural]

I forgot US people buy phones based on plans haha

[dawn tiger]

no, it's why i buy unlocked

[elfin mural]

I'm on a prepaid plan that I top up myself

[proud jackal]

[dawn tiger]

but cheap upgrades require plans

[elfin mural]

Right

[craggy shoal]

Can't own anything here anymore

[serene wyvern]

Hi theo

[dawn tiger]

had it for two hours now lol, time will tell

[proud jackal]

what up homeslice

[serene wyvern]

did you win anything recently

[elfin mural]

I got an s21 fe

[velvet summit]

at least locking phones to a telecom company is illegal here now

though idk about the us

probably the same there

[rancid juniper]

whats the cheapest SD 8 GEN 2 phone?

[elfin mural]

The us is planning to change that

A law is already out

[serene wyvern]

I didn't win anything but bought a vega56 for $50 so thats paractically winning

[elfin mural]

But won't be put in practice yet

[proud jackal]

must be nice to win

[elfin mural]

It's a W for everyone fr

[dawn tiger]

i thought we can unlock phones here??

wait

[fervent stump]

A few people show know that I like to over talk about things I like same way I talked a lot about wanted a strix 4080s but then stopped talking about that and now I want a zotac 4080s then I went to talking about the h9 flow case then people told me not to get it and they led me to another case that was better now I am talking about some fans for the case which seem to always cause a lot of people. If I want to talk about fans I want for my computer let me talk about them

[mortal grail]

Probably a oneplus, red magic, oppo or something like that

[elfin mural]

You can still unlock phones in the US

[rancid juniper]

guess ill check oneplus

[velvet summit]

yeah a few years ago in canada, there are no longer any locked phones even if you buy a phone on a contract
i could buy like a pixel 8 from freedom mobile on a contract and use like a bell mobility plan on it

[elfin mural]

But you need to use their plans for 60 days

At least for verizon

[rancid juniper]

you cant have T-mobile and unlocked in the same sentence

[dawn tiger]

ah, i thought you could take any phone to any carrier and the old carrier had to unlock it?

[elfin mural]

I almost bought a pixel 6a, but I'm not a US resident so I wouldn't be able to unlock it anyway

[dawn tiger]

guess i was wrong

[craggy shoal]

Not in America

[elfin mural]

This new law allows phones to be instantly unlocked no matter what

[dawn tiger]

eh, i always buy unlocked anyway

[elfin mural]

Eliminates the paywall

[craggy shoal]

Can't wait for this

[velvet summit]

if the contract is over? they're supposed to be unlocking it, though they may charge a fee for unlocking it in the US afaik

[dawn tiger]

mebbe this is what I was thinking of

[elfin mural]

It'll be free and immediate in the future

[dawn tiger]

OnePlus came with a screen protector too

5500 mah battery

[serene wyvern]

I had a pixel 6 pro and hated it. It died after extended submerssion in a pool. replaced it with pixel 8 pro and its been good. I will keep it until it no longer functions

[velvet summit]

vendor locking is stupid anyways

[mortal grail]

Expressing opinion is one thing. Insisting when opinions on the topic from others are well expressed is another.

This is an online forum, subject to open expression of opinion in regards to ToS and morally fair discussion. You're welcome to express your opinion but so is everyone else. You may call it unfair to yourself, but it's unfair to others to not also say how they objectively feel.

Defuse and disengage, and move on please.

[elfin mural]

I hate vendor locking fr

[velvet summit]

i have a pixel 8 (not pro) and i like it as well

have you used that temperature sensor thing at all lol

[dawn tiger]

my 6 Pro was starting to show it's age

time for something new

[elfin mural]

I almost got pixel 6a from total

But got disgusted by the locks

smh, missed it

[dawn tiger]

at least with VZW now you just pop your sim in a new phone and go

[elfin mural]

It was $129 for brand new 6a

[rancid juniper]

hey does your oneplus 12 got a headphone jack?

[dawn tiger]

no

[rancid juniper]

not pog

[dawn tiger]

now that you mention it

no USB to headphone either

[rancid juniper]

☠️

[serene wyvern]

no. I play with it with my kids from time to time, but temp sensors are mostly just a gimmick like most "features" on phones

[dawn tiger]

just a usb a to usb c adapter

[elfin mural]

no dongle in box is a sin

[dawn tiger]

lemme check box again

[velvet summit]

does it not work with them, or did it not include one

[rancid juniper]

no charger in a box is a mega sin

cuz wtf?

[velvet summit]

yeah that's what i figured lol

[dawn tiger]

all I grabbed was the sim pin pusher thing

[north crescent]

I have a Pixel 5. Major annoyance is garbage fingerprint sensor calibration. I actually have to put clear tape over it to be reliable. iirc P6 had that issue as well

[elfin mural]

i don't mind no charger anymore

i already have 2 chargers

[dawn tiger]

no no

it came with 80W fast charger

and red cable

[elfin mural]

chargers are cheap nowadays ngl

[velvet summit]

i use a wacom power brick to charge my phone 💀

[rancid juniper]

brick was fat huh?

[dawn tiger]

not sure about headphone adapter thing

[elfin mural]

and usb pd is good

[dawn tiger]

CHONK

[rancid juniper]

LMAO

[dawn tiger]

cable hella fat too

[velvet summit]

i dont think any phone includes that out of the box

the apple one is good though

[dawn tiger]

not anymore they don't

but no other phone takes 80W that i know of

[velvet summit]

but the cable is a little filmsy so you do have to be slightly more careful of not breaking it

[elfin mural]

i bought an anker 25w charger and never looked back since

[serene wyvern]

The last phone I onwed with a reliable finger sensor was the s9 pro. pixel 6 pro was a waste of time. The 8 pro has decent fingerprint sensor but the facial recognition is easier and more accurate.

[velvet summit]

but it's hella cheap

and great sounding for the price

[rancid juniper]

my oneplus charger is 50w

[elfin mural]

i wish samsung gave s21 fe 45w charging but oh well

25w is fast enough

[dawn tiger]

this thing went from 60% to 100% in minutes

i can confirm

no headphone adapter jack

[velvet summit]

80w charging is also kinda a gimmick? it wont stay at that speed for long due to heat

[elfin mural]

but it does provide good bursts of speed

[serene wyvern]

bout a pixel 7a for my oldest kid and its been reliable also. The only reason I would jump away from pixel at this point is if they force gemeni down my throat. I don't want AI on my phone.

[dawn tiger]

idk, this thing charged really fast

[elfin mural]

modern batteries are designed to be charged faster than before anyway

[velvet summit]

it all ends up charging relatively within a similar speed

So true

[rancid juniper]

only problem im seeing with my phone is that they only offer one OS update (Android 13 > 14), cannot go up to 15 even if the specs are eligible

[mortal grail]

My fingerprint sensor on this phone lasted 2 years

[rancid juniper]

security updates are provided tho

[mortal grail]

An update bricked it

[elfin mural]

smells like a motorola

[dawn tiger]

i think the 12 said 4 OS updates?

[elfin mural]

sony provides 2 android updates

[rancid juniper]

FOUR????GYATT DAYUM

thats unfair

[north crescent]

Five years of support

[rancid juniper]

lol

[elfin mural]

my s21 fe is probably gonna get android 16 at the latest

and that'll be the end of it

[velvet summit]

supposedly the pixel 8 is supposed to be supported for like 7 years or smth crazy like that

[elfin mural]

i'll run this phone to the ground tho

[velvet summit]

i hate how it doesnt have a microsd card slot though

[rancid juniper]

https://www.tomsguide.com/phones/oneplus-phones/exclusive-oneplus-12-software-updates-oneplus-president-explains-why-you-get-5-years-not-7 yep

[dawn tiger]

"Guaranteed 4 major Android updates and 5 years of security updates."

[elfin mural]

s24 series is in 7 year support timeline too

[rancid juniper]

bruh

[north crescent]

It's finally starting to get common for 5+ years of support. There might've been a law for that, but I cant remember if that was for phones or smth else.

[elfin mural]

tbh with how ridiculously powerful high end phone socs have become

7 years of support is actually nice

and is sustainable

[mortal grail]

I think my next phone will be a zenfone tbh

[rancid juniper]

hope it stays that way

[mortal grail]

I'm still pleased with zenfones

[dawn tiger]

16 gig ram 512 gb storage for $750

i thought it was a good deal

[mortal grail]

Objectively good, not best, but solid, and a good size

Asus premium tho

But I can eat that if it means my phone doesn't feel like a behemoth

[north crescent]

3 years of support was super dumb, complete requirement of custom ROMs at that point

[rancid juniper]

absolutely FOUL

[dawn tiger]

oh, that's the n30 that's why

[rancid juniper]

im pretty sure snapdragon 695 5G can handle Android 15

._.

[rancid juniper]

should've been atleast 2

not one dammit

[dawn tiger]

not gonna disagree there

[serene wyvern]

good really depends on what you do with your phone. I play candy crush, call people and text. My p8p should last 5-6 years before features progress enough to motivate me to upgrade.

[velvet summit]

7 years of support is honestly quite reasonable
i dont think phones would really last more than 7 years before "modern" apps would cause it to lag more than like bureaucracy
but i dont think they cant last less than 5 years though

[rancid juniper]

games, apps, and basic stuff runs entirely fine on my device

just wishing they adding one more os update

[elfin mural]

i mean a 2017 phone with 4gb ram is still ok

[serene wyvern]

grr. I forget I don't have mod everywhere anymore and get smacked by the bot.

[elfin mural]

sd 835 is still pretty potent

[velvet summit]

discord would kill it ong

[elfin mural]

what matters is the soc and ram amount, not the phone's age

[rancid juniper]

LOL

[elfin mural]

discord kills my exynos 1200 phone too

[velvet summit]

lmao

[elfin mural]

that's universal

[rancid juniper]

guys post a 200mb gif

the phone:

[velvet summit]

💀

i cant even open gif picker on my pixel 8 or else i get like 2fps

[elfin mural]

discord android went to hell after they started porting ios version to android

[serene wyvern]

my p6p modem was horrible and battery life was fading rapidly. I wasn't sad when It died. P8p should be good for a while.

[rancid juniper]

at this point they have to create a stress test

Disc-O-Mark

[north crescent]

Haha get wegged

[elfin mural]

like launching it isn't a problem, but some parts of the app surely makes my phone go bye bye

[velvet summit]

all day battery really is the best thing to come to a phone since the release of the smartphone

[elfin mural]

my phone launches discord in 2-3 secs

[velvet summit]

i do not miss having a 1 hour battery life

[serene wyvern]

[elfin mural]

i had an lg v30 in 2023

[velvet summit]

i've used a oneplus 1, iphone 4s, and galaxy s6 (not in that order), and none of them lasted more than 1 hour of me just reading a webnovel

[elfin mural]

it was pretty snappy still

[velvet summit]

like, literally just plain text

[fervent stump]

@craggy shoal I may have found a fan that’s better then nzxt and I like it more

[elfin mural]

[craggy shoal]

[north crescent]

Do consider, was webnovel viewer poorly optimized?

[fervent stump]

Ummm

[velvet summit]

[rancid juniper]

[fervent stump]

[craggy shoal]

[rancid juniper]

LG stylo 6 triggers

[velvet summit]

well, it was on a web browser
chrome is.... ok? honestly idk

[fervent stump]

It’s CHEAPER

[craggy shoal]

Gee, how would I have ever guessed

[fervent stump]

Reviews are good

[velvet summit]

might have just been because of mobile chrome

[craggy shoal]

ITS CORSAIR

[fervent stump]

AND

[craggy shoal]

BECAUSE THEIR BUYERS ALSO IDIOTS

lol

[fervent stump]

IM AN IDIOT THO

[serene wyvern]

If its compatible with cue 4 its probably ok. cue 5 has been horrible since launch

[rancid juniper]

wow

actually i respect that

[craggy shoal]

You don't
BUY

CORSAIR

(or NZXT)

[fervent stump]

[craggy shoal]

[craggy shoal]

[rancid juniper]

PRICE PREMIUM FOR MID PERFORMANCE

[fervent stump]

I like the logo

[rancid juniper]

[craggy shoal]

[fervent stump]

Whatever that thing is

[rancid juniper]

4000deez---

[craggy shoal]

ur mom on deez nutz

[fervent stump]

What the hell is this

[craggy shoal]

It's a Corsair

[rancid juniper]

heh

[fervent stump]

What’s a Corsair

[serene wyvern]

I have used corsair gear for decades, and beta tested for them up until about 2 years ago. They went downhill after they went public in both product quality and software

[fervent stump]

Idk what that logo is but I like it

[craggy shoal]

It's a pirate ship

[serene wyvern]

its a corsair

[rancid juniper]

ok, they def know what they're doing

[serene wyvern]

a type of ship

[fervent stump]

That is not a pirate ship

[rancid juniper]

go find another logo

and send

[craggy shoal]

Yes it is

[fervent stump]

Give me a sec

[rancid juniper]

HAVE YOU NEVER SEEN A SAIL BEFORE?

[fervent stump]

I’m going to Google it

[elfin mural]

The word corsair means pirate ship

[craggy shoal]

I want to rip the logos off of all my stuff tbh
