which is why i have no idea why they are trying to make electric muscle cars

isnt the whole point the feel

if you're driving legally, torque/accel is nicer than top speed

Dodge made an ev, they made a stereo to mimic sounds šŸ’€

It sounds so fake lmao

Give me that V8 roar

#

i personally dont have a huge preference between gas, hybrid, or pure ev

misty sparrow
velvet summit
#

mainly just pros and cons of the fuel medium and cost

craggy shoal
#

This took a while to put together, finding the right clips and the best videos I've shot in the past year! I'm sorry I didn't get to release it in 2021 but I am able to post it now. What a year it was! So many cars I got to see for the first time! And others I got to record multiples of but got the best ones. Some v8's in here are not american b...

i lean more towards EV because electricity is practically free here (nuclear ftw)

#

but the car's initial cost and like semi decadely batt replacements, and relatively low range throws me off

#

i live kinda rural and there's no charging stations around

misty sparrow
#

same here except i don't live rural

craggy shoal
misty sparrow
#

there's just no charging stations

#

how are they gonna expand EV charging stations across the US if there is absolutely nothing available in vital locations

velvet summit
#

so yeah im currently sitting waiting for EVs to mature more before throwing myself into the deep end lmao

#

for now, i'll stick with gas or hybrid

#

šŸ’€

misty sparrow
#

i wonder if there's nitrogen powered cars or something

velvet summit
#

nitrogen?

mighty hazel
#

There’s hydrogen powered

misty sparrow
#

hydrogen

mighty hazel
#

Toyota

misty sparrow
#

oops

mighty hazel
#

Yes

velvet summit
#

lmao

misty sparrow
#

i meant hydrogen

#

i got them mixed up

velvet summit
#

hydrogen cars are even worse than EVs because there is nowhere you can get fueld up at

#

at least nowhere here

#

not even my house

#

šŸ’€

misty sparrow
#

but theoretically could they last longer though?

velvet summit
#

at least EVs you could just plug in

misty sparrow
#

if we just remove charging stations from the equation

craggy shoal
#

The government won't let it happen anyways

velvet summit
#

also hydrogen cars are just EVs with extra steps

#

the hydrogen fuel cells just generate power for the electric motors lol

craggy shoal
velvet summit
#

afaik hydrogen is more energy dense? and you'll be able to use less rare earth metals

#

possibly

craggy shoal
#

Yeah that would make sense

mighty hazel
#

They do exist

#

Toyota sells them

craggy shoal
#

Yeah the Mirai

bRuh how did I kill the chat

hydrogen tanks are huge and they do expire faster than gas tanks need to be replaced

#

so that's.. gonna be fun to replace

tranquil pebble
#

Fortunately gasoline requires oxygen mixture to burn and it is harder to get the right mixture than it would seem

aka rip out your whole car's interior

just to replace a tank

Whenever I see a roach I stomp its head and throw it into the toilet. I wait until I have to pee so I can pee all over the roach and have it ever regret entering my home

We've been having more roaches lately because my stupid neighbors knocked down absolutely all of their trees and now the roaches are scattering for places to survive

hello everyone

#

wonder if anyone can help me with my situation on NAS hard drive

#

Need to replace one drive. I have 4 of these in my Seagate 4-bday NAS

#

what is the recommended closest replacement?

sweet phoenix
#

And are you in the US?

normal pebble
#

yes... needs to be 4TB as they are all 4TB and want the same closest for RAID config

#

based in Canada

sweet phoenix
#

Ah I've never messed with raid before

#

One sec

proud jackal
pliant berry

Ideally you use same model drive, idr what success rate is for mismatched

normal pebble

I would prefer to stay with the same seagate brand

Ah ok one sec

sweet sun

doesnt it like suck

sweet phoenix
#

I've no clue

sweet sun
#

im pretty sure everyone says seagate sucks

sweet phoenix
#

I've heard mixed things

#

At the very least they used to be good

pliant berry
#

I think they had a few models that had a history of failing

sweet sun
dawn tiger
#

that's 2019, 5 years ago

sweet sun
#

yea well i dont really think the 4tb hard drive you buy 5 years ago is different than the one you buy now

normal pebble
#

both not showing availaibility a amazon

#

crazy

dawn tiger
#

it is

pliant berry
#

I love how they still have hgst there

dawn tiger
#

2.92% failure rate for 2024

sweet sun
#

ok so that just shows seagate is still the worst

dawn tiger
#

104 drive failures out of 20,00 drives

#

wouldn't consider that bad

#

the 12tb is the worst

#

not the 4tb

sweet sun
#

yea its not that bad but the other ones are still better

dawn tiger
#

it sfine if you don't like seagate but nothing compares to the DeathStar drives

#

hitach deskstars

sweet sun
#

ok...

sinful blade
#

@sweet phoenix any decent $190-200 gpu deals atm?

dawn tiger
#

holy crap

#

also just realized average age for the 4tb seagates was 97 months LOL

#

longest of all the drives listed

dawn tiger
#

yes

#

ave age in months

sweet sun
#

dont hard drives last 10+ years

dawn tiger
#

most of the other drives backblaze listed avg months was ~40

sinful blade
#

8 years is 97~ months

dawn tiger
#

ye

#

i wouldn't call those bad drives

sinful blade
#

Ye

dawn tiger
#

lots of data to consider

sweet sun
#

the hard drives arent that old

pliant berry
#

they don't necessarily last over 10 years

My seagate drive is about 7 years old by now

dawn tiger
#

smart error?

pliant berry
#

I think it was a write error

dawn tiger
#

oh, gltich in the matrix

pliant berry
#

I think it was either mistaken or system instability because it was just 1 and after some changes it never came back

#

I should get like a 20tb backup hdd though just in case

dawn tiger

ive had a couple sata cables just randomly die

nothing happened (went back to usb drive screen)

oh it froze again

how do i overclock a non k chip

like what kind of motherboards can

#

ik some can but like how do i find if mine can

craggy shoal
#

you can't overclock a non K chip

sweet sun
craggy shoal
#

You can't šŸ’€

#

Maybe like last decade with the base clock method but not anymore

sweet sun
craggy shoal

this isn't 2013

sweet sun
#

you can

#

this video is a bad example but idc

#

it still proves you can

tranquil pebble

sweet sun

ok so the screen is still frozen

did i mess up

craggy shoal

"How do you OC a non-K CPU"
"You can't do that"
"Yes you can" [finds a video that shows you how to do it]
okay then do it lol

#

Maybe I was wrong lol

elfin mural
#

all you need to do is have a z board

#

or some b boards

craggy shoal
#

So basically an overclockable board

elfin mural
#

yeah

tranquil pebble
#

non-k can still be bclk OCd

dawn tiger
#

bclk only tho

elfin mural
#

one with a separate clock gen is better tho

dawn tiger
#

can't tinker with other thigns

elfin mural
#

bclk is a bad way to oc

craggy shoal
#

bro who told me they "patched the base clock method"

elfin mural
#

only oc with separate clock gen

craggy shoal
#

somebody lied to me and now I sound like an annoyed knowitall

elfin mural

and only some boards use that iirc

tranquil pebble
elfin mural

bclk controls well.. the whole thing

sweet sun
elfin mural

as well as sata

sweet sun

dawn tiger

z what tho

craggy shoal
#

z

#

it's z

sweet sun
#

z690 prime p wifi d4

#

even though its a prime board its got a decent vrm

craggy shoal
#

Should be like "Overclock on non-K" or something

velvet summit
#

She z on my clock till I'm over

sweet sun
#

ill wait 4 more minutes and if its still frozen then umm

#

then what

#

this could be bad

craggy shoal
#

Restart

#

lol

#

it'll be funny

sweet sun
#

please actually suggestions

craggy shoal
#

(It actually shouldn't harm anything [at least I'd imagine])

sinful blade
elfin mural
#

prime and decent vrms do not go together

craggy shoal
#

Worst case scenario you either RMA your motherboard or just get a new one

elfin mural
#

you're hallucinating if you think a prime board is any good

velvet summit
sweet sun
dawn tiger
#

don't think the z690 prime offers non k OC

craggy shoal
sinful blade
#

Prime boards are only good here

elfin mural
#

asus prime anyway

craggy shoal
sweet sun
#

and then i searched up a review and the vrm is better than a few z690

#

boards

#

i mean the vrm is the same

velvet summit
#

(oh I missed that context)

sweet sun

but it has better cooling somehow

It's a setting that ensures core ratios set beyond 70x are actually applying. It's not related to non-K OC

Hello. I'm looking to trouble shoot why anytime I start up a game, the screen turns to black but I can still hear the sound. I don't think it's the video card AMD Radeon RX6700 XT. Mainly since it's only a year old, maybe a smidge more. I think it might be either the monitor or power supply? Any ideas?

I think the funniest yet most annoying thing is when they develop a game, they expect everyone to enjoy it, but it turns out to be an underperforming game that not even top-end hardware can run. But what makes it funny is when the game's community asks for it to be optimize and the devs just say "no lol"

#

If Sony keeps jacking up the price of PS5, Switch 2 is gonna fly off the shelves

velvet summit
#

Or would it

#

I mean

#

There still isn't much reason to grab a ps5

#

They STILL barely have any titles worth grabbing the ps5 for

#

So even if the price of a ps5 was a steal, idk if anybody would be compelled to buy it

#

I'm guessing Sony is raising the prices because nobody is buying games for the ps5

#

So they're just losing money

#

My cousin has a ps5 and he just buys PS4 games from thrift stores and such lol

#

Sony has not made a dime yet from his ps5 purchase

#

Because there's just nothing worth buying for him

#

And it's much cheaper to buy used PS4 copies of the game

I'd need the same info you gave him tho, or the pcpartpicker list he gave you

You're going to get worse value buying only from microcenter

#

They have some great value stuff, like the 7800x3d bundle at $500

wicked oriole
sweet phoenix
#

Not heavily

#

And not exactly marked up

wicked oriole
#

Labor?

sweet phoenix
#

Just some things microcenter doesn't have a super wide selection on, so some of the normally cheaper, good models aren't there

wicked oriole
#

I see

sweet phoenix
#

Like $115 for a good psu vs $95, $130 for a good ssd vs $110

#

Cooler selection just kinda sucks. Am5 is super easy to cool fortunately, so their cheapest coolers are fine

wicked oriole
#

Only reason I'd like micro center is 1. I don't gotta build it lol and 2. It's an hour away from me and I can just go get it then bring it home and get to gettin

wicked oriole
sweet phoenix
#

Anyways one min

#

Lemme draft up a list

wicked oriole
#

Appreciate you so much

sweet phoenix
#

Oh can I ask what microcenter is close to you? Bundle pricing varies a bit per mc

#

Or just fill in whatever bundle you want in the list I link in a minute

wicked oriole
#

The guys I work with are heavily trying to push intel, but from what I read that amd processor is really nice and the graphics cards from Nvidia just aren't worth

sweet phoenix
#

Yeah intel is not the move at the moment, long story short

sweet phoenix
#

Ty

#

Also what's the pc being used for?

wicked oriole
sweet phoenix
#

Just gaming?

#

As a 13600k owner I'd just avoid it altogether. I can't say whether or not the update will actually fix it, I doubt intel would lie but at the same time they kind of already have lied lmao

#

They had a defect with the manufacturing process, an issue with the oxidation

wicked oriole
sweet phoenix
#

Ah ok

#

Wasn't sure if work was anything intensive

craggy shoal
#

I mean you know, people buy a whole gaming PC just for YouTube anyways lol

sweet phoenix
#

7800x3d bundle was $500 but looks like it went up to $550

craggy shoal
#

The CPU alone is worth more than half of that

sweet phoenix
#

Fair

craggy shoal
#

I could've gotten a 7800X3D bundle (with memory) if I had a car. Instead I had to go through Amazon and get a 7900X and a motherboard for basically the same price (without memory)

sweet phoenix
sweet phoenix
#

7900xt/7900xtx would be better value but it's your choice between the four

wicked oriole
sweet phoenix
#

Idts

#

You just mentioned intel and nvidia

#

Intel has a valid reason to avoid but idrc between nvidia and amd

wicked oriole
#

My bad, I'm dumb, would that setup handle a 7900xtx? Also what's the difference between the xt and the xtx?

sweet phoenix
#

Amd is of course better value but it's not like one of them will give out on you like an amd cpu lol

sweet phoenix

The 7900xt about matches the 4070 ti super, and has 20gb vram. The xtx matches the 4080/4080 super, and has 24gb vram

#

Over 16gb isn't really needed, I doubt 20gb will be necessary before 7900xt can still keep up with new releases.

#

Unless targeting 4k

#

I feel like Nvidia is kind of overpriced once I looked into it (cause 4090 or nothing and im not doing that lol) then it's like why bother with other Nvidia?

sweet phoenix
#

4080 super is well priced

#

Ti super is overpriced but still an ok choice

#

4070 super is also a solid choice. Any other card from nvidia tho...

#

Is a hard pass

wicked oriole
#

Is the 4080 better? Also do the Nvidia gpu have sometype of ai on them

sweet phoenix
#

New dlss has "ai"

#

It uses ai to generate frames to make it seem like you're getting higher fps

#

It's just a newer version of previous dlss

#

Amd has a similar thing, but it isn't as widely used and isn't as effective

dawn tiger
#

ah, new amd performance update out today (KB5041587)

sweet phoenix
#
#

$900 4080 and $807 7900xtx

#

Open box and refurb tho

# velvet summit They STILL barely have any titles worth grabbing the ps5 for

No games is a trend with Sony starting with PS3. Nothing until later in its cycle. Same with PS4 until Bloodborne. Biggest issue is most of the games being made is a bunch of samey games with different titles. Nothing compelling. They keep promising the 4k 60 experience but never achieve it because of the graphics mandate that Sony thinks having the best looking games is the winning strategy.

#

That worked for a while until graphics started to all look the same. There's no WOW factor anymore and now most of the games just suck.

#

I have close to 150 games on my Switch, and like 8 on PS5.

#

If the base PS5 has an unattractive value proposition, what makes them think a PS5 Pro is gonna do any better?

#

what will I do with a PS5 Pro? play Kingdom Hearts 3 in 120Hz?

mortal grail
#

You say that like devs will try harder to make games run better and not cop out on the free performance

#

AAA is broken as an industry rn

#

Long hours, low experience, poor conditions

#

The price increase has me not considering the pro anymore

#

Not that I'd ever need it, but I like playing with hardware

unreal trail
#

of course they cop out on inflated specs. Devs are literally using inflated spec to make up for lack of desire to optimize

mortal grail
#

Oh this is why they did it

#

Dumb move sony

unreal trail
#

they just lost 10s of million on Concord

mortal grail
#

Believe that official number was 6 million

unreal trail
#

when these studios stop acting like we owe them money just because they made something, we might start getting better games

mortal grail
#

Nah

#

They need to stop trying to make things no one cares about

wicked oriole
unreal trail
mortal grail
#

True

random osprey

theyll get their money back in no time

is that real

mortal grail
#

Wow

#

Nuclear roast wolf wtf

dawn tiger
#

they still haven't broken 1k players ain't nothin gonna save it

random osprey
#

ye, it started off with someone trying to be positive about the release of the game and a dev responded saying the people who are hating the game are talentless freaks

dawn tiger
#

i heard about talentless freaks

mortal grail
#

Ya it was so ptsd

dawn tiger
#

not charging to see tweets though

random osprey
#

and then people started responding and the dev started hiding their tweets

dawn tiger
#

just gonna make it worse

#

ouch

unreal trail
#

yeah disparage the people who play games, that'll fix it all

mortal grail
#

It's not even entirely that

#

They released a new game in a generic genre

unreal trail
#

hero shooter

mortal grail
#

With generic layering so thick that the game has zero characteristic

unreal trail
#

like people are supposed to jump off of Overwatch for their uncharismatic cast of whatever

dawn tiger
#

it sjust a bad game

mortal grail
#

You try and walk in on a genre that's over saturated you gotta have the chops to make something better

unreal trail
dawn tiger
#

like the new star wars game it's not great either

mortal grail
#

Star wars games are done to death too

#

Another one

dawn tiger
#

ye

#

riding the hype train over star wars name is over

mortal grail
#

This is why games like lethal company went viral

unreal trail
#

eh

#

if they did the Darth Jar Jar arc in a game, it would sell

mortal grail
#

You give a new concept, barren landscape of competition

#

And it just runs

unreal trail
#

they just arent making anything that people care about

mortal grail
#

Think in general party games are just more widely appreciated now

#

Originality is pretty much non-existent these days

#

If you don't consider indie

dawn tiger
#

palworld and black myth enter the chat

mortal grail
#

Oh yeah ofc

#

Exceptions to the rule lets name a few

ye

mortal grail
#

Doom eternal

#

Cyberpunk

unreal trail
#

making remakes while removing memorable parts of them are also smoothbrain moves

mortal grail
#

Well also, remakes don't recapture the rose tinted glasses people have over the original

unreal trail
#

mostly

dawn tiger
#

ya stepping away from canon and changing things aren't great moves

mortal grail
#

It's just all so stale really

unreal trail
#

Metroid Prime and Mario RPG were good remakes tbh

mortal grail
#

Nintendo delays releases tho

#

Well, mostly

unreal trail
#

marketing strategy

mortal grail
#

There was that one pokemon game

unreal trail
#

they've had Zelda games finished for years and haven't released them

mortal grail
#

Quality over quantity I totally get behind

#

I'd rather wait 8 years for a good sequel than 4 rushed ones

#

Play something else in the meantime

unreal trail
#

nah these remakes took maybe 1 year to finish

mortal grail
#

That's what I mean

#

They need to try harder

#

AAA is corrupted with bottom lines and heavy investment flow control

dawn tiger
#

then you have games like nms that come back from the ashes

#

unicorn tho

mortal grail
#

I'm all for games that would do this too tbh

#

At least nms built upon their good initial idea

dawn tiger
#

they outright lied at launch tho

mortal grail
#

It's honestly really scary to me that a game I was hyped about like 6 years ago is now considerable

dawn tiger
#

and have worked tirelessly to bring people back

mortal grail
#

They worked tho

#

Can't say the same about many other studios

#

Not to that same level of commitment

unreal trail
#

they made good on it unlike Peter Molyneux

#

Lionhead left Fable 3 completely busted

mortal grail
#

Look at how many studios in the last 2 years never fixed their games competently enough

#

There are so many fps ones

sweet phoenix
unreal trail
#

Bamco did the bare minumum to fix Symphonia remaster

they really just didn't want to work on it lol

You can do dp to hdmi

Count how many times it beeps (there may be a pattern, like one long beep and two short beeps). Google the beep pattern/code along with the make and model of your computer (or if you built the computer, look up the motherboard and its beep codes, not the make and model of the computer)

Hey!

#

Do you think that for 1780$ it's worth buying a pc with this specs:

Here's the translation to English:

I9-11900KF New

  • Asus RTX 3090 Tuf Gaming 24GB
  • Z590 Asrock New
  • 32GB Of RAM DDR4 3200MHz New
  • Antec HGC 1000W PSU in excellent condition
  • 1TB SSD M.2 New
  • Jonsboo TK3 New
  • WIN11 with a fresh licensed installation
  • 10 ARGB Fans with a control remote and software

(I didn't write the specifications)
?

#

I would have gotten rid of the Windows 11 but I guess I can't in this case...

mortal grail
#

Not worth at all

#

1780 2200 **should get you 7800x3d+4080 super/XTX just for a quick comparison

#

Brand new

Well, you didn't ask where I am from...

I randomly picked up parts so don't kill me

Yeah so I'm not that far off

copper fable

I already have an NVME

mortal grail
#

1780 still feels a bit expensive

#

But not 2x

copper fable

But, is it a fair price or is it to much?

mortal grail
#

I'd say it's high ball

copper fable
#

When you consider taxes and all

mortal grail
#

It feels close to new pricing

#

And thus

#

It feels a bit high

#

1600 I think you'd be a bit more comfortable

copper fable
#

But wait you do know I could save up some money by ordering in parts...

#

If I buy parts that are 75$ or less, I pay no taxes...

mortal grail
#

You could

copper fable

Which only leaves the RAM in this case 🤣

Ram I wouldn't pick corsair

Go silicon power or klevv or teamgroup

Something more budget friendly

Ohhh wait one of those parts make me pay 38$

One of them wasn't included in the free shipping
