Do we know if 9000 series has a preferred ram speed yet? Or is it still something like 6000mhz?

its like 6,000 to 6400 from what Ive seen

6000 is the safest bet

laptop motherboards are just high-performance SBCs if you think about it

#

Just had to throw out $100's worth of food cause SCE's power grid was down for so long here... God, what a shame

#

Even if every family that was affected only had to throw out $100 worth of food, we would still be at several millions in food loss

damn really? In houston when our power went out, our fridge would hold temps for a few days as long as we didn't open it. Temps got into the 100's there too

Anything longer than like a day and a half though we would use a generator

prepared as much how

velvet summit
#

You don't have a small camp stove?

#

They're pretty cheap

#

Good for camping and emergencies

fair onyx
#

There are a lot of factors that play into why thats 100% not a good idea

#

camping stoves are not safe for indoor use. Its like one of the biggest warnings on them, and it being over 100F outside isn't a great option either lmao

velvet summit
#

Could use it outdoors, I'm not saying to asphyxiate everyone indoors lmao

#

Fair

#

100f is quite hot

fair onyx
#

And, we were also told power would be back by 2PM, and it wasn't

#

there were a lot of factors. And we couldn't even stay in the house cause it got too hot

velvet summit
#

Oh well

storm narwhal
#

Id say it's a good investment

#

Ya know hotpot and stuff

#

If you use an actual stove for hotpot you're a little psychotic

velvet summit
#

My house has co monitors in every level, and I keep the door open when I'm using the stove (or a vent fan) so it's fine for me, but yeah, broadly, wouldn't advise using it indoors

velvet summit
#

And those cheap induction portable stoves suck

#

They hurt my ears

fair onyx
#

An induction wok would be ideal for hot pot. Much more efficient, much less heat out

velvet summit
#

I love induction but it kind of sucks for the cheaper units because they had this annoying Buzz

its official is like 450 but its draws more than that

light egret
#

yeah but if that link is accurate it's saying the 5080 will have a 10% increase for the same wattage as a 4090. If that's the case, and the 5090 is 600 watts, I would assume it's gonna have quite a boost over the 4090.

gilded kraken
#

might as well just start hardmounting your pc to the floor and wiring it to the grid, that things gonna be massive and heavy

light egret
#

nah 1200 watt power supply would handle it and can be had for same size as most other psus

gilded kraken
#

I mean the cooler is going to have to be larger than the 4090 that was already giant

I think I might be assembling one of the heaviest PCs ever.

I'd put my money on length wise it being roughly the same or real close to 4090 size

600W is still nuts

Well the context is that the 5080 will supposedly draw 400 watts with a 10% increase over the 4090 which also draws 400 watts, and the 5090 will supposedly draw 600 watts, acccording to a link above.

I got a few buddies who did everything right and got their BS and weren't able to find jobs at all. One was working as a teacher after failing to get into what he majored in, and they retroactively decided he didn't have a high enouhg GPA to teach, after teaching for 2 years already.

sweet sun
#

still in high school

light egret
#

Make sure you pick a good major and do your side stuff and network yourself while in college

sweet sun
#

what is my ā€œside stuffā€

light egret
#

College degree by itself doesn't mean a whole lot. It definitely helps, but isn't the end all be all

#

depends on your major. May be like interning or making sure you meet the right people or do side projects or volunteer work, all that stuff

sweet sun
#

ok

light egret
#

like have a portfolio by the time you get out of college that can show experience without having actual work experience

sweet sun
#

well im just scared of college because i suck at english so much and i gotta write all of them papers or whatever

#

and i suck so bad at those

#

i suck at anything english relatoed

light egret
#

eh english really isn't that bad, at least in the first 2 years. Most people write at a much lower level than you'd expect in college, and they help you elevate that.

#

I never made it past my second year of college due to some health issues

#

oh also, research your professors before you join the classes. You get to choose, make sure you choose right. Some professors are terrible. You can look them up online and there are dedicated websites for that

sweet sun

i don even know where im going even though i am pretty sure where

How many years are gpu generations typically apart?

#

ahhh ok. Well if you're doing good and school and are up for it, you can start taking college credit courses in highschool too. Idk when though it's been a long while since I was in highschool

#

You can get some credits out of the way early though

sweet sun
#

oh yea

#

i am taking a few college credit courses

proud jackal
#

college credits while in hs are still free if i remember

light egret
sweet sun
#

im not taking all of them bc alot of them are english and history and i would absolutely fail it

#

math is my specialty tho i got an a in some advanced class without even taking notes or studying

light egret
#

That's good. Keep it up. You can look up some online classes like Khan Academy to try to study more for english on your own time if you wanna try to get better at it.

sweet sun
#

not interested in studying yet

light egret
#

just keep taking notes even if you think you already know stuff and it will start sticking

misty sparrow
#

they got english on khan academy?

#

i never knew that

sweet sun

no need to bc rn the classes are free

i think they do

yes they do. Reading & Language Arts

im driving a drift car, with a shifter and pedal settup

using a controller to steer

pliant berry
#

I just use a ps5 controller.. or steam deck lol

misty sparrow
#

which one's more comfortable

#

doesnt seem like a steam deck would be that comfy to hold because of its size

tranquil pebble
pliant berry
#

I prefer the ps5 controller. the most uncomfortable thing I find about the steam deck is holding my fingers on the rear buttons. I'm the type of person that doesn't like to grip controllers with my ring finger and pinkie

#

that's also why xbox controllers are basically my least favorite. the handles are too thick

light egret
#

wait you mean so you only put your index fingers on the trigger/bumper?

misty sparrow
velvet summit
light egret
#

same but the xbox controller is the most comfortable for me in that orientation

pliant berry
#

sometimes, but for intensive games it's middle finger, index for trigger and bumper and the other 2 fingers float

light egret
#

i don't like having index and fingers on the xbox series X controller tho

#

it feels weird but thats how I did every controller before

velvet summit
#

huh

#

the series x controller didnt look like it had the egronomics changed from the photos

light egret
#

the layout of the bumper/triggers just don't feel right clawing it

velvet summit
#

i kinda want to upgrade to it just for usbc but my one controller is working fine currently so there's no reason to

pliant berry
#

Basically like that

misty sparrow
#

i don't really mind either to be honest

#

i swap between them effortlessly, except with an xbox 360 controller

light egret
misty sparrow
light egret
#

See I love clawing the 360 controller. It feels so right

misty sparrow
#

maybe the d-pad change too for series x/s

light egret
#

yeah between the series X and and the xbox 1 they are pretty similar

#

just texture difference really

#

oh and dpad is diff too

misty sparrow
#

yeah it's a circular dpad

light egret
#

but all the playstation controllers, the 360 controller, and even the gamecube controller, I claw them

#

the xbox 1 and series X feels wrong to claw them

misty sparrow
#

it feels like it was made to just be held with palms instead of clawed

light egret
#

by claw I mean the index and middle finger on bumper/trigger

velvet summit
#

im back from slapping the crap out of a mosquito once again

misty sparrow
light egret
#

For me it's that the triggers stick out to far. but the bumpers make up for it cause I can easily hit the bumper and trigger at the same time or separately accurately with a single finger. Where as the 360 controller I couldn't do that as easily, so clawing made more sense and the triggers didn't stick out as far

misty sparrow
#

fair enough

rancid juniper
#

glad i can use my controller with usb c if the batteries die out

light egret
#

lol I have one of those rechargable battery kits with a dock that I leave it on when not in use so it's always charged

#

I've only had it die on me once when I forgot to plug it in when we were playing elden ring for hours every night

deep parcel

lol Concord is shutting down in 3 days already

pliant berry
#

that lasted long

deep parcel
#

instead of shutting it down they could just go free to play

#

that way development time wasnt a complete waste of time

pliant berry
#

they are probably planning to slightly repackage it and release in another year. either that or completely scrap, report it as a loss for taxes, save elements for others works

deep parcel
#

yep

pliant berry
#

it's just sad that the only thing I know about this game is what the banner looks like and how it was a massive failure

misty sparrow
#

the only thing i know about the game is how there's an official controller design based after it, saw it one time and decided that it looked terrible

#

that eight year development cycle went completely to waste

pliant berry
#

oh really?

there has to be atleast one developer who thought, "man this is a terrible idea"

even if some devs thought it was a bad idea the game probably would've still been developed on anyway

unless devs actually get insight into creative input decisions

they def were trend chasing since they started development around 2016

i wonder what exactly went wrong in its development, to go through that lengthy amount of time only to get the final product

it was probably something similar to anthem

maybe they spent most of the time in preproduction, then realized they had to quickly make a game and then cobbled something together last minute

It's still beta so Pixels can run it but you're better off using a custom os.

gotta be someplace specific

I have a magsafe case

I could

If I wanted to

Magsafe is also nice af too

storm narwhal

That's part of qi2

As well

magsafe is the same as qi2 more expensive but less heat

the one thing wireless has done best is apple day

I got onto Qi before these other things came out so

If I did things differently I'd have GaN rn and a newer laptop

But Qi works well when you need charging in a pinch

My battery safe charging via wire is also 35w

last mango

Oh mine does. I think she has better one

mortal grail

So it's not really all that bad

isnt fast charging just a gimmick? from what i know it just limits charging speeds rather than improving it

storm narwhal

But it just gets hot

I charge way faster with fast charging on

Instead of a couple hours I can be done in like 40 minutes

im talking about other brands like xiaomi

Well idk about xiaomi either

last mango

Oh nice the charging settings are similar now

paper verge
# mortal grail No

no you dont get what im saying. What i mean is when a specific phone model is used its gonna use higher wattage

Xiaomi has that like, 200W super fast stuff

wtf does fast charging even do

last mango

Phones have regulator modules on them for type c input charge rate

#

Yes they do

last mango
#

No E Marker? No can do for higher wattage

mortal grail
#

The cable needs to be rated for it

#

Otherwise they literally die in the shrink wrap

#

I've done it a few times

storm narwhal
#

Jesus

paper verge
last mango
#

Why

storm narwhal
#

So it charges faster

#

Cause it thinks it's colder

#

I don't think it even works

wary fjord
#

It works

last mango
#

You put a ice on the device and it thought oh wait we can go faster

mortal grail
# paper verge wtf does fast charging even do

Fast charging does a pulse rate of high current at really short intervals, essentially the improvements of this lead to higher charge rates in shorter intervals but more current all at once

last mango
#

Cable proceeded to burns up?

mortal grail
#

Needless to say the stupid fast charging of the likes of like xiaomi is understandably bad for a battery

last mango
#

Yeah I think 30W is good enough.

paper verge
# last mango Cable proceeded to burns up?

Electrons move faster, they hit other electrons, they heat up so your phone regulates the current to stop that from happening, but when you put ice it aint gonna regulate the electrons so it goes boom (but your phone is still pushing more current)

mortal grail
# last mango *How*

Enough time in the high current load beyond spec the cable electro migrates and breaks apart

#

Copper strands are thin and soft so it's easier to say it literally melts

last mango
#

Ah ok

mortal grail
#

You don't see it

#

It happens inside the shielding

last mango
#

I thought you put a ice on the phone so the Temps sensors tricks the device thinking it's safe to pull more the wattage

storm narwhal
#

Batteries hate having electrons shoved in them

mortal grail
mortal grail
#

You approach lower temps away from throttle, phone stops throttling

#

It will just open the taps

#

Like throwing LN2 onto a cpu or gpu

#

Same idea

paper verge
mortal grail
#

Charging faster than spec is a fallacy

#

Charging better however is not

#

And this also hurts li batteries btw

#

Li-ion hates cold

paper verge

yeah batteries are very complicated stuff i'd rather have the professionals at big companies work them out

last mango

I think my s24u has graphite cooling with some copper piping

mortal grail
#

Normal water-cooling is like that but you don't add energy to create a specific heat difference

#

The energy input and exchange makes it a meme

#

Cos you need comically high energy to cool something

#

Very inefficient

very very inefficient indeed

Vapour chamber is like a smarter version of heatpipes

Heat vaporises the water in the chamber under pressure and causes a very efficient heat transfer

Which is definitely a cool idea

Would you rather have a pc that is a refrigerator or a pc that cooks chicken šŸ˜

last mango
#

Huh cool. Mirco refrigeration

velvet summit
#

To be fair, those units are usually sized to only prevent the beer from getting warm, rather than rapidly cooling them? They're meant more for keeping things at a temp rather than taking away heat from a PC

ooo

i like that

last mango
#

Fans is still used but with the cooling the refrigerated loop gives, even low fan curves.

#

So less noise

velvet summit
#

Probably would be less risk of condensation if you just used the evaporator as the intake heatsinks for the case, and add a drip tray and maybe condensate pump to get rid of condensation, so the PC receives dry, cold air

#

Can also use some of the unused cold air for helping keeping your room cool

last mango
#

I just thought of adding drip tray but gutter like on the pipes

#

Ya know the gutters on house to collect rain drops and flow to other end

velvet summit
#

I mean, losses on the tubing is less useful than like, having everything be air cooled via refrigerated air

#

Also the thing about just having phase change cooling on the cpu block is that there isn't really much airflow for the vrms

#

Hmm

#

I wonder
