[dusk knot]

OLED 😋

[fresh nova]

We’re talking 20+ FPS gains on the Asus Zephrus

[dusk knot]

But good cpus

[fresh nova]

That’s significant

Yes both are good cpus, the Ryzen 9 is actually smoking the Ultra 9 tho

The simple 8/16 cores is just better then the p+e-cores for gaming

[rancid juniper]

Nice quick review

If you have the time, can you try a battery life test?

[fresh nova]

I will see. Trying to get back to Best Buy with them before 8 tho.

[sinful blade]

I hate emergency room wifi

Always suuuuucks

[pliant berry]

Oh wait, you are testing these and then returning both?

[rancid juniper]

Ah ok

[fresh nova]

Basically

So I know which one to buy when they go on sale.

I'm buying one just don't know which yet.

[dusk knot]

Lol

[fresh nova]

Well I kinda know, prob the ASUS Zephrus like 90% the Asus Zephrus

It's just so good

[dusk knot]

The white one is looking good

Mmm

[fresh nova]

Started battery test on HP one. 100% GPU load, 100% brightness with HDR on & speakers set to 100% volume. Test started at 4:13 PM CST.

Max load, then I'll hit the Asus with the same load same settings.

[rancid juniper]

nice

they both fully charged before you started the test?

[fresh nova]

Of course both at 100%.

[rancid juniper]

good

[fresh nova]

It's down to 80% already. lmao

[rancid juniper]

other laptop probably has HDR aswell

DAYUM

😂

[fresh nova]

Yes they're both OLED

[rancid juniper]

cool cool

well lmk when tests are done

very curious which one is more efficient

[icy ore]

[dusk knot]

My man

😎

[proud jackal]

[dusk knot]

What is up, tea-o

[lone mango]

This is crazy

Oh wait gddr7

Still though

Its gonna be the same but with a 7 at the end

[fresh nova]

HP lasted exactly 1 hour.

[rancid juniper]

😂

[fresh nova]

4:13 PM - 5:13 PM

[rancid juniper]

whats the cpu on that thing?

was it amd or intel

[fresh nova]

Ultra 9

[tranquil pebble]

I am temporarily using my ROG Ally as a desktop

[fresh nova]

Intel

[rancid juniper]

ah ok

how's the other laptop?

[fresh nova]

It's still doing 3D mark testing

Just the CPU test left then It's done with 3D mark.

[rancid juniper]

i see

[fresh nova]

But I might have to get to Best Buy it's already 5:15pm

[proud jackal]

[rancid juniper]

aw

well i guess the AMD somewhat wins?

[fresh nova]

Need these things packaged & cleaned up in prestine condition like they were never opened

[rancid juniper]

they gonna mark it as "Open Box"

[fresh nova]

Yep

Might buy back my own product later

After it gets makred down

lmao that's actually genius, wait a min.

[rancid juniper]

new loophole

[fresh nova]

I bought a Best Buy membership so they don't cause me any trouble.

You get 60 days with a membership

[rancid juniper]

cool

[dusk knot]

Same

With my camera

I wonder if micro center has the anything equivalent

[tranquil pebble]

I can has framegen

[unreal trail]

nope

[chrome mirage]

My graphics card spikes to 580W. Good thing I upgraded my power supply

[idle nexus]

Apparently everyone cares about Steel Nomad now

[chrome mirage]

Framegen causes stuttering on my pc

[idle nexus]

hmm where's Felix I need to blab on about my suffering at the hands of AM5/X670E Taichi

now that the mystery white stuff is cleaned off my CPU contacts & I rebuilt everything, the 2x32gb memory still won't cooperate. However, I may have had a breakthrough now that I set ProcODT all the way up to 68.6. It makes no sense

[median frigate]

guys is there any compatibility issues with this https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/YbpZh3?

[proud jackal]

@idle nexus what was the white stuff on the contacts

[median frigate]

I dont see any but pc partpicker saids there is an issue

[idle nexus]

isn't 7800X3D price way up?

[idle nexus]

still a total mystery

[median frigate]

cause of intel being bad

[idle nexus]

my only theory is that it's liquid metal seeped through between the dies

[median frigate]

7800x3d is such a good cpu

for rust its goated

[idle nexus]

oh ya for sure I'm just saying it might be hard to get one lol

I'm not seeing what the conflict is here tbh

[median frigate]

me neither I don't think pc partpickers compatibility software works the best lol

[idle nexus]

I mean, 6400c32 memory for 7800X3D is a little optimistic. 6000 UCLK:MCLK 1:1 typically works on Zen 5

6200 works on a decent amount I assume

I've only gotten 6400 1:1 to POST with a lot of fighting with it

[spark halo]

Doom eternal is free on gaming prime :>

[idle nexus]

Also, your motherboard is automatically going to change from UCLK:MCLK 1:1 to 1:2 once you set higher than 6000mt/s

you can manually override it but the point is, you'd likely need a decent amount of manually tuning to make 6400 1:1 work (if you even can) so I'd go with as 6000 kit & try to overclock it if you're feeling crazy

[median frigate]

hmm I might go with 6000 kit then I do want to overclock

[idle nexus]

I use a really cheap 5600c46-46-46-84 kit to run 6200c28 (when it's working properly--long story)

the important part is that the chips on it are made by hynix

sorry, let me try to be more helpful here lol

for example, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C4NM8NMC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

which is nearly identical to what you already selected lol

sometimes they have multiple EXPO/XMP profiles on the same kit tho

[proper ridge]

Hi, everyone!

[craggy shoal]

I've beena NewEgger for a while, just hadn't joined the Discord community.

[tranquil pebble]

Someone should complain to the support for the game that it wont run on their "fast" GeForce 2 card

[fresh nova]

@rancid juniper I made it

They were glad I packaged them so well

[rancid juniper]

👀

very nice

[fresh nova]

That was a huge refund over 4K

I’m surprised they allowed that

[rancid juniper]

refund worth 2.5x more than my pc

[fresh nova]

Now I have the two MSI 14” on the way

But I’ll return those Friday after I have time to test them.

Then I’m done returning for a while. Don’t want to get flagged

[lone mango]

Bro trying to find THE laptop

[rancid juniper]

lol

[fresh nova]

I really am

If I’m gonna spend my money I wanna like it

[lone mango]

[fresh nova]

The ASUS Zephrus was perfect it’s just too much money for me, if it goes on sale I’ll probably buy to keep

[idle nexus]

TT Live ftw?

& geez the positivity is overwhelming

lol

[idle nexus]

lol aren't there review videos you can watch to make this easier?

[fresh nova]

Yes

But I like hands on

I wanna feel the keys & weight & see it in person, maybe play a game on it etc…

[idle nexus]

my suffering continues

[idle nexus]

no microcenter to hit up?

We don't have those in Louisiana

[idle nexus]

we just got one locally but I still haven't been

it opened in August lol

so much for my free flash drive

heck

[fresh nova]

I couldn't afford a Micro Center

I'd be broke

[proud jackal]

Waiting for my Santa Clara microcenter to open

[idle nexus]

really? I figured MicroCenter would be less expensive than heckin BestBuy

[tranquil pebble]

get a MacroCenter instead

[fresh nova]

There's no appeal for me to go to Best Buy

[storm narwhal]

What about just a centre

[fresh nova]

Microcenter is diff

[tranquil pebble]

Best Buy, more like Worst Buy

[fresh nova]

They have hardware chilling on shelves where you can pick it up & look at it

[storm narwhal]

Best Buy more like dumb

[idle nexus]

lol so pick one then order it online for cheaper?

[fresh nova]

Best Buy doesn't have nearly as much product as Micro Center & you can't look at it everything locked up

[storm narwhal]

Weird how microcentre doesn't need to lock up most of its stock

[idle nexus]

lol I don't think it attracts the same crowd as Walmart

[storm narwhal]

But best buy must lock everything

[tranquil pebble]

Different types of people yeah

Best Buy is similar to Walmart with who shops there

[storm narwhal]

Fair

[fresh nova]

Yeah Microcenter is like the Target & Best Buy is like the Walmart

[idle nexus]

my son has taken over my YouTube

I now have 81 videos of which I made zero

[fresh nova]

I've discovered a Keurig

I got one on sale for $49

[idle nexus]

Keurig is nice but it's kinda wasteful I dunno

[fresh nova]

It's amazing

[idle nexus]

like don't get me wrong, it's convenient as heck

[fresh nova]

I put the thingy in the thingy & it make coffee no mess

TeChNoLoGy

[storm narwhal]

Is it skibidi now

[tranquil pebble]

unless you use reusable pods

and then its not wasteful at all

The problem is the amount of disposable pods they go through

[storm narwhal]

And it probably doesn't use plastic

[idle nexus]

ya & the pods aren't the cheapest way to get coffee lol

[fresh nova]

But when I do want coffee I have Keurig now

[storm narwhal]

Monster as coffee is cursed

[idle nexus]

oh man I used to drink so much Monster

do they still make the BFC?

[tranquil pebble]

Monster and NOS are my favorite energy drinks

[idle nexus]

there's more sugar in a can of Monster than like an entire bee hive

Orange Red Bull is so fire

like I could drink a gallon of that stuff

not that I would

I never tried the Monster Coffee tbh

[storm narwhal]

Oh idk what that is lol

Haven't seen any ads or anything about them lol

But that's great!

No sugar crash

[tranquil pebble]

imagine if Asus did a ROG energy drink

[storm narwhal]

Call it the ROG POG

Well it's working

For free

All of newegg knows now

[tranquil pebble]

the wifi on the Ally might be a Mediatek, but its one of the good Mediateks

[storm narwhal]

That's decenttek

[tranquil pebble]

no driver issues in sight, it just works

[fresh nova]

This is the only one I drink daily now.

Stopped drinking GFUEL ever since I got hired on.

[storm narwhal]

Nice

Yeah idk about gfuel tbh

[tranquil pebble]

omg I need to try that

I love green tea

[fresh nova]

Ah it's working

lmao

[storm narwhal]

See??

[fresh nova]

No but fr I'm just sharing what I like

[storm narwhal]

This is why they hired you fr

[tranquil pebble]

I might be going back to working UPS

[idle nexus]

Cafe Bustelo with the Italian Cream stuff is so good

(I'll find exact name cuz that's not a good explanation I know)

[misty sparrow]

i feel like people are forgetting that natural sugars like the ones found in beehives are healthy, it's just the artificial sweeteners and sugars crammed into things like monsters are not healthy

is it listed as an "Added Sugar" or just a normal sugar

anything "added sugar" someone told me is just plain bad

trying to navigate the Nutritional Facts as well as nutrition + healthcare in the US in general is like that tesseract scene from Interstellar

very confusing

[idle nexus]

high frutose corn syrup

seed oils scare me ngl

[misty sparrow]

high fructose corn syrup should just be banned outright in US

other countries do it, why not us?

[idle nexus]

lol I just put on a pot of coffee because of this conversation

[dull creek]

one time my brothers went to a car show, and the Monster trailer was there. they were giving out literal entire cases of Monster. They asked me if i wanted to go beforehand and i said no

[misty sparrow]

huh

maybe i should consider switching to a different country

[idle nexus]

this stuff (probably has seed oils in it but still good)

[icy ore]

Oh hey we’ve got this

Seed oils mmm

[idle nexus]

seed oils are scary cuz they cause like imbalance of omega-3 & omega-6 fatty acids or something leading to like inflamation (lol a little knowledge is a dangerous thing isn't it?)

[icy ore]

Aspertame mmm

[misty sparrow]

how do you get oil OUT of a seed

[idle nexus]

cuz I remember hearing something about artificial sweeteners being bad for developing brains or something

[fresh nova]

I can't even buy bread

[idle nexus]

the problem with medical stuff is some claims are so wild

[fresh nova]

Every bread on the shelf has seed oils

I can't buy bread

[idle nexus]

so many things do cuz they're like a cheap filler

[icy ore]

Make your own bread

[idle nexus]

water, salt, yeast, ez

jk I've never made bread

[fresh nova]

Like what happened to wheat, yeast, water baking powder, you know the simple ingredients to make bread. Why does my bread need 50 ingredients & see oils???

[idle nexus]

cuz profit

[icy ore]

I made focaccia tn, literally water yeast salt flour

rosemary on top

[fresh nova]

profit I can't buy bread now

[nocturne flicker]

I am terrible at kneading bread, one day I shall succeed in making a loaf of bread by hand

[idle nexus]

what's alarming is like everything is cooked in seed oils

olive oil is better but has a low flashing point or something

[fresh nova]

I don't want cancer or sum from companies trying to make money.

[misty sparrow]

Europeans have every reason to make fun of US food

[idle nexus]

so you end up cooking stuff in canola, crisco, grape seed, coconut oil, etc.

[misty sparrow]

for some reason we put sugar in every single basic food item for no reason

[fresh nova]

olive oil is often mixed with seed oils, so when you buy it it HAS to be 100% organic

[misty sparrow]

along with high fructose corn syrup

[idle nexus]

wanna know something that blew my mind hold on

[misty sparrow]

why does bread need sugar

[nocturne flicker]

Sugar does a lot of stuff in bread

[fresh nova]

100% organic olive oil & avocado oil is perfect for salads because it's not heated, coconut oil & beef tallow is better for cooking, it doesn't brake down into carcinogenic substances when you cook it.

[nocturne flicker]

A small amount is fine

[idle nexus]

[nocturne flicker]

In particular, sugar is good at keeping bread moist while it is sitting around waiting to be used

'S why breads like Cuban bread get hard as a rock super quickly, they have little to no sugar

[idle nexus]

so ya this sums up what I had no idea about: tobacco companies purchased a lot of large food companies https://www.forbes.com/sites/maryroeloffs/2023/09/08/did-tobacco-companies-also-get-us-hooked-on-junk-food-new-research-says-yes/

[fresh nova]

@idle nexus

I started buying these as my snack

Bout as good as you can get

[idle nexus]

did you know about tobacco companies acquiring Kraft, etc.? I only learned this year lol

[fresh nova]

Not surprised at all

[misty sparrow]

people used to tell me that being healthy in the US was hard and i never believed them

now i do

[fresh nova]

All I know is anything with the "Whole 30" badge on it is relativly safe to eat.

I've noticed all the "Whole 30" products don't have seed oils or any of the bad things.

[idle nexus]

I really should find some good snack like that. I doubt Uncrustables are very healthy lmao

[fresh nova]

Those are bad

[idle nexus]

I know but so good

[fresh nova]

I do recommend Larabars, they taste amazing

The peanutbutter one is good if you are not alergic to peanuts

[velvet summit]

step 1 of being healthy: be rich

[nocturne flicker]

Step 1 of being rich: Be born rich

[fresh nova]

It's horrid, 90% of the shelves are bad.

And yes the healthy stuff is slightly more expensive.

[idle nexus]

lol healthy food never had a chance if all the trash we eat is scientifically engineered to affect our brains

[misty sparrow]

even making your own stuff from scratch?

[velvet summit]

anything that isnt shelf stable is expensive
anything marketed as healthy(/healthier) is expensive

[fresh nova]

So the way I see it is everyone has a decision to make

[idle nexus]

most things marketed as healthy taste considerably worse than their trash junk food counterparts lol

that's my problem at least

[velvet summit]

healthy = tastes bad frfr

[fresh nova]

Oh no the Larabars are amazing

[sinful blade]

It is very

[idle nexus]

I mean, think about it

[nocturne flicker]

Find the time to make everything from scratch while trying to afford your shelter, utilities, the stuff you need to make that stuff from scratch and insurance

[idle nexus]

you go into a restaurant

what is there to drink that isn't awful for you besides water?

[sinful blade]

There’s a grocery store called Weis in Pennsylvania

You can get 5 boxes of unhealthy Mac and cheese for $5, or a single box of healthy Mac for $3.99

[misty sparrow]

cucumber water

[velvet summit]

coffee or tea

[fresh nova]

tea

[idle nexus]

lol exactly

[sinful blade]

Buying meat is also a nightmare
Cuz they keep the fat in to boost the price per pound

[idle nexus]

okay tea but what, just tea? you're not gonna put 2-5 sugars in it?

[nocturne flicker]

I know I love coming home from an 8 hour shift at midnight only to spend an hour making food from scratch

[fresh nova]

If it's a good slice of meat some fat is ok.

[sinful blade]

Making the stuff yourself is also just as costly because of inflation

[idle nexus]

sweet tea is just soda without bubbles

[velvet summit]

i honestly cant really drink tea with sugar in it

it tastes so weird

[misty sparrow]

someone told me they got 10 pounds of chicken thighs for $16 a while ago

[idle nexus]

tea without sugar is just brown water lmao

[velvet summit]

i mean

i drink coffee and tea without cream or sugar

[random osprey]

@fresh nova also try fitcrunch, quest bar, and barebells. theyre protein bars but theyre good. or at least they have some good flavors, some not so good

[sinful blade]

Wife bought a cheap 1lb steak yesterday for $9.
1/3 of it was fat.

[fresh nova]

That's not a good slice of meat. lol

[idle nexus]

coffee without sugar is just darker brown water but spicy

[velvet summit]

you should try some chinese teas, most of them are meant to be drank without any sugar or milk

spicy???

[misty sparrow]

yeah why do you think we threw tea into the boston harbor over 300 years ago

[velvet summit]

what kinda coffee you drinking

[idle nexus]

cafe bustelo

[fresh nova]

I love tea

[sinful blade]

That’s how it is here

[fresh nova]

Matcha is my fav, because it provides the most benefits

[sinful blade]

I have to go to a store to buy proper chicken tenderloins
For a decent pack it’s $12

[idle nexus]

I want to love tea but I don't like eating food with hot drinks when it's 80F outside all the time

[fresh nova]

There's a reason the people in Japan that drink matcha every day live to be over 100 years old

[sinful blade]

Counting the fat that will be 1/2 of every piece

[velvet summit]

shou mei is my favourite type of cheap tea
baihao yinzhen (same tea plant, but just the buds) is my favourite type of premium tea

classified as a "white tea" (minimally processed, it's just dried right after picking, compared to oolong which is oxidized for its flavour)

so it has quite a mild and has a floral taste

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoumei_tea

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baihao_Yinzhen

i highly recommend these teas

some what

[idle nexus]

"The T-Force XTREEM CKD DDR5 Gaming Memory delivers exceptional overclocking performance, supporting up to 9600 MHz with two memory slots (2 DIMM) and 8800 MHz with four memory slots (4 DIMM)."

CKD

it's like a clock driver that's on the DIMM

to help with signal integrity

[dusk knot]

Well…consider all the stuff we bought when we had money

[proud jackal]

is ckd short for cudimm

[sinful blade]

You had money? Faker

CKD is just "clock driver" afik

[sinful blade]

I’m an OG

[proud jackal]

ggood buy it for me pls

[idle nexus]

lol I can barely afford to pay attention rn

CKD is kinda suspect to me tho... like how can having a middleman between CPU & memory be better? no latency there?

apparently CKD basically bypasses IMC strength? hmm https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ram/patriot-developing-high-speed-ddr5-ram-that-guarantees-speeds-up-to-ddr5-7200-regardless-of-cpu-imc-quality-unlocks-higher-overclocking-potential-too

but how stable is it

from reading, it seems the penalty is looser timings

[tranquil pebble]

probably pricier DIMMs too

[idle nexus]

probably

[proud jackal]

i remember when 12900k came out and i could barely find any ddr5 to buy

then CAMM will be even more lol

CKD CAMM when?

I'm still using olllld m-die on my 12900K

the damn memory OC took me so long to do I haven't even bothered trying A-die

like nope this is fine

[idle nexus]

just install a charger. Run 30A 240 circuit

[idle nexus]

I did like 10 of them lol

[pliant berry]

that's good too

[mental yoke]

Hell yea

My son loves this one

[mental yoke]

This one too

[mental yoke]

Why the spoiler

[idle nexus]

I still like Moonlight Sonata cuz of Resident Evil 1 lol

[pliant berry]

you should try this whenever you got 45 minutes to relax https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPJL488cfRw

[mental yoke]

I listen to classical music all the time

[chrome mirage]

Ask the YouTube channel Warped Perception. It's his car

[mental yoke]

In the shower, while working, late night driving, etc

[idle nexus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWa-6g-TbgI

[mental yoke]

Especially on the backroads in the early morning when the sun is just starting to rise omg 😫

[pliant berry]

spooky night driving

[mental yoke]

This song is a hit

[chrome mirage]

I've listened to that song with akg k240 headphones

[mental yoke]

During the early mornings

[idle nexus]

great song

[chrome mirage]

I bought the headphones because that's what he's wearing in the music video

[mental yoke]

Y'all wanna see the headphones I use when I listen to this type of music

[pliant berry]

i like grieg's piano concerto in a minor

so much fun

[mental yoke]

?

[idle nexus]

oh damn that's pretty heckin awesome lol

I had to get some meh Arctis Nova 1s cuz I broke my SteelSeries5 which were less meh

[mental yoke]

I use the AirPods Max

[mental yoke]

I also sometimes use my Sony XM4's

[idle nexus]

you heard it just how Eddie Murphy did

[chrome mirage]

I also have Audio Technica M50X. But the akg's are more comfortable

[pliant berry]

Fight me

[mental yoke]

Funny enough, I actually workout to classical music 🙌🏼🔥

[sinful blade]

That’s what my piano playlist is for

[fresh nova]

I was joking, I charge my car on a 60A braker.

[chrome mirage]

I think they changed a lot since that video came out. AKG got bought by Harman which is now part of Samsung

[idle nexus]

lol okay much better

[fresh nova]

60A is max allowed by Tesla in residential.

[idle nexus]

that's a lot to add to an average residential panel so it makes sense

I think most residential services are like 150A

Tell the Power Company you want 3-phase lol

I actually dunno if they'll even give you 3-phase for residential lol

[tranquil pebble]

might be zoning restrictions too on that

[mental yoke]

How's everyone doing tonight?

[idle nexus]

meh alright I just hate that my AM5 system has basically been unusable for like a month so I'm trying to finally get memory right but it's an uphill battle to say the least

today's tailchasing

[mental yoke]

Oof

[idle nexus]

kinda hate DDR5 tbh lol

[tranquil pebble]

GDDR DIMMS when?

[idle nexus]

you can upgrade your residential service to 3-phase apparently

[mental yoke]

i5-10400F for $40, do I buy?

[idle nexus]

eh ig it depends what you wanna do with it

do you already have an LGA1200 board you can throw it on? lol

[dusk knot]

Hm

[velvet summit]

meze has the light coloured version as a japan exclusive and i want it so bad

it looks so good

[pliant berry]

oh really?

[tranquil pebble]

got a text from DHL notifying me that this has shipped

[dusk knot]

Nice

[pliant berry]

the collection must grow

[chrome mirage]

Some crazy power draw spikes on my 7900XTX

[craggy shoal]

bruh

like what

[dusk knot]

Oh wow!

[craggy shoal]

Oh wow!

[dusk knot]

And I thought AMD was efficient

💀

[idle nexus]

still efficient compared to 749w on my 4090 lol

[dusk knot]

590 watts!!!!

[velvet summit]

https://www.e-earphone.jp/products/detail/1622025/ had to do a bit of searching again since it's released in japan only

[velvet summit]

oh this is a used one

[dusk knot]

Well that's not a shocker. Carry on.

[pliant berry]

yeah I had to look around too, cool color combo

[unreal trail]

💀

[chrome mirage]

It's the OC bios that comes with this card. It doesn't go as high with the quiet bios.

[velvet summit]

https://www.e-earphone.jp/products/detail/1587247/2069/ new one

[idle nexus]

I should re-run GPU pi if I ever get this AM5 system running again

rn I'm not very optimistic

[dusk knot]

Ah..how's that psu doing? No suudden black outs? Lol

[velvet summit]

almost out of stock though it seems, the limited run is about out

[chrome mirage]

It's a 1000W seasonic. It's been fine

[dusk knot]

I knew it

I wouldn't be comfortable with anything less than 1000w

850 would trip... probably

[tranquil pebble]

wonder what would happen if I actually set my region to this

[dusk knot]

The cops come

[pliant berry]

it will auto install redstar

[chrome mirage]

I was going to keep my 750W but decided to upgrade

I've been running the power supply in fanless mode this whole time. Maybe with that much power I should turn the fan on.

[dusk knot]

Mhmm

[tranquil pebble]

I have a 1250W PSU

[dusk knot]

Am 850

[nocturne flicker]

1000w

[misty sparrow]

imagine if it changed your GPS location to North Korea and you logged onto Steam, people would be wondering "woah theres a north korean guy on Steam!!"

[chrome mirage]

I was running a 2080Ti and 3700X off a 500W psu for a while

[nocturne flicker]

My gaming build was using an 850

I just happened to get my hands on a lightly used 1000w EVGA psu when I was doing this build

[chrome mirage]

My 1000W seasonic was on sale for a good price when I got it. The thing has been running in fanless mode and never had an issue.

[dusk knot]

I wish I could upgrade my setup

[velvet summit]

take out a loan

frfr

[dusk knot]

Would like a 7800x3d/5080 setup

[dusk knot]

I don't do debt

[velvet summit]

do you have a credit card

[dusk knot]

🤔

[velvet summit]

if you do, you technically do in fact do debt

though more temporarily than a loan

[dusk knot]

No 😂

[velvet summit]

as an american, you probably should actually get a credit card

because of the damn credit score

[dusk knot]

I need to get one soon. I don't really have a need for one

[velvet summit]

well, as long as you think you wont be dumb with a cc

[dusk knot]

Ik...

[velvet summit]

if you are going to be dumb with a cc then you're better off without one

[dusk knot]

I had a secure credit card for a while

[velvet summit]

but yeah, you should apply for one sooner rather than later since building credit score takes forever

[dusk knot]

I paid it on time, until I quit my previous job

[craggy shoal]

I put my like $20 on my credit card and then my car hasn't driven properly since then

[velvet summit]

rip

[velvet summit]

i sure hope you didnt close the account because that would mean your score will be gone forever

and you're gonna have to start anew

[dusk knot]

It closed itself. I don't mind starting over.

[velvet summit]

oh rip

[dusk knot]

Finding a good job during covid was tough

[velvet summit]

my math teacher accidentally closed an account before transferring so like 5 years of credit score was just gone

[dusk knot]

Sad

[nocturne flicker]

Credit scores are a scam

[velvet summit]

ong

well, i wish it didnt exist but you kinda need it to be able to get a house or car unless you're already rich

actually, even rich people struggle to buy a house even if they have the money if they have terrible credit 💀

[craggy shoal]

bruh fr I couldn't get a decent loan with a credit score that I've been building for only a few months (yeah it's not long but nevertheless it's annoying)

[velvet summit]

this problem happened to ludwig

[dusk knot]

Well the good thing is, I was worried that my credit score would be abysmal, but you just assured me that it no longer exists. I'd rather have no credit than bad credit. @velvet summit

[nocturne flicker]

They know what your history is regardless of closed accounts, they track that stuff, they just penalize you because it pressures you to have more credit cards and make you more likely to use them

[velvet summit]

he is a multimillionare from youtube and has absolutely terrible credit

because he forgot to pay off a credit card for too long

💀

[dusk knot]

How long is long?

[velvet summit]

i forget what his score was but it was pretty much rock bottom

[dusk knot]

What an idiot 💀

[velvet summit]

well, he was trying to cheese the system

worked for a while but then it backfired

💀

[dusk knot]

💀

[misty sparrow]

💀

[velvet summit]

i forget what he was doing?

oh yeah i think he was trying to get a high credit score by using multiple credit cards in like a circle paying off each one around so that the credit score would keep going up

and then something that i dont remember went wrong and then his score divebombed and then he gave up with the credit score

he's rich enough to buy anything he needs in full anyways

[dusk knot]

A cascading effect

Oof

[nocturne flicker]

Must be nice to be able to goof around with credit score on purpose without worry

[dusk knot]

Yeah

Would be nice if I stumbled on a rich mineral deposit

Being rich makes life easier

😔

Not perfect, but more manageable

[velvet summit]

invent the portal gun

get a millitary contract from shower curtains or smth

[dusk knot]

I hate math. Can't do that

[tranquil pebble]

credit card resonance cascade

Then I wouldn't be so stressed

[misty sparrow]

if i was rich i'd live offgrid in a tiny shack by myself

[proud jackal]

[velvet summit]

nobody to live with? that's kinda sad

doesnt have to be a partner, could just be like a friend or sibling or smth idk

you could do what cody'slab is doing though, making like a mars base

simulation kinda thing

[nocturne flicker]

I'd live in a smol house on a gravel lot, live off dividends, have a part time job to get out of the house and chill

just me

[velvet summit]

now

are you going offgrid with no internet

or offgrid completely just yourself

maybe some occasional supply runs

[misty sparrow]

thinking offgrid completely, like that time walter white had to disappear for a bit in breaking bad and all he had were a few dvds before any supply runs were made

[velvet summit]

you'll be bored by the end of the week probably

just made a mistake somewhere along the line

one mistake makes the whole equation go astray

[mental yoke]

So um..

Currently I'm listening to Lo-Fi Christmas music

This to be specific.

[dusk knot]

Oh yeah. Why I don’t really enjoy solving math problems on most occasions. But I will admit it is a bit fun once I fully understand the formulas to get a concrete answer

[sinful blade]

@worthy meteor what’s the best used $350~ gpu rn?

Or maybe @velvet summit you might know

[worthy meteor]

can prob get like a 3080?

[sinful blade]

That’s what I had in this list, just didn’t know if you knew of any solid cards around that range

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FCjJCd

this is not going for efficiency, customer wants the looks prioritized

But how’s it look?

[worthy meteor]

If you want to prioritize looks, may want a better looking mobo

and can prob get the argb phantom spirit

[sinful blade]

I only have like $20~ of breathing room

If you can adjust it within $20, I can probably do that

[worthy meteor]

what look do they want to go for

[sinful blade]

The aesthetic the case has.

I assume just soft RGB

[worthy meteor]

btw 13600kf is just $3 more expensive, might also be worth

[modern imp]

B760M PG riptide is a better and cheaper board

[worthy meteor]

guess it's because of wifi

steel legend wifi might work

[sinful blade]

I’m not too smart with intel boards

[sinful blade]

Yeah, they do need wifi

@modern imp any suggestions?

[worthy meteor]

this is prob a bit better
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gTsmdH

wait nv2

[sinful blade]

How would a single tower cooler perform on a 13600kf?

Like the thermalright Assassin X Refined SE ARGB

[worthy meteor]

swapped nv2 for ud90, I just don't like nv2 with wacky hardware combinations
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WBNvwg

[worthy meteor]

Personally would not really trust it

[sinful blade]

Gotcha. Had the softer RGB, and intel stuff isn’t my strong suit.

[sinful blade]

Looks like ram has to change then

Frick

That’s okay

[worthy meteor]

?

You have ~20mm of wiggle room to move second fan up to fit ram if ram is too tall

[sinful blade]

Ram speed

[fresh nova]

Need to know how many fins, heatpipes, total area of fins etc... Is it a 120mm fan, 140mm fan, 80mm fan etc...

Each of those variables would drasticaly change how the cooler performs.

[sinful blade]

.

[fresh nova]

This is more what you need for that CPU.

Not this 👆

@sinful blade
https://www.newegg.com/p/0VE-01P6-00013?item=9SIA4REK842961

[sinful blade]

Gotcha.
I should pay more attention to that.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CYprJy

Oh wait ram

[fresh nova]

I would find a GPU with 12GB

[sinful blade]

I have $360 limit on gpu

[fresh nova]

Ah

[sinful blade]

3080 is probably best I’d get for it, unless there’s some crazy deal I’m not seeing yet

[fresh nova]

Looking to see if I see a 6800XT

https://www.newegg.com/asrock-radeon-rx-6800-xt-rx6800xt-pg-16go/p/N82E16814930087R?Item=N82E16814930087R

It's still too much

I tried

[sinful blade]

It’s all good.

@fresh nova got any ideas for the ram?

Saw some 2x16 6000mhz cl46 ram for $96

OOP, never mind, 5600 mhz, not 6000

[fresh nova]

My next car looks good

Imagine I pull up in this thing. lmao

[sinful blade]

Meet the Robinsons type car

[fresh nova]

I'd get it custom painted candy apple red

And would def want AWD

There's an off-road option that raises it for more ground clearance. I'd need that too

[leaden pewter]

oh the aptera

hopefully they deliver on their promise of their 3 variants and pricing

[fresh nova]

It's perfect for an apocalyps

Armored shell & solar for recharging

[sinful blade]

Hoping Hyundai delivers on the concept car

[fresh nova]

Small & manurable

[leaden pewter]

the design is tough in itself alone that insurance covers it as a 4 wheel vehicle

[fresh nova]

Easy to clean because small & also prob easy to work on because small

[leaden pewter]

removes the need for a rear diff

[fresh nova]

You could totally deck it out for an end of world situation

Put some kevlar lining in it.

tires would be intresting

I'm sure you could bring the rim & tire to any shop & have them mount the tire to the rim then just install the wheels yourself

[misty sparrow]

If it’s an unofficial emulator then it’s really bad

If it’s in-house then okay I guess

but for a museum I think original hardware would be better

[tranquil pebble]

it'd be so ironic if it ends up being unofficial, against the license of the emulator and Nintendo got sued

[rancid juniper]

it would be very stupid if they did use an unofficial emulator instead of in-house

[tranquil pebble]

chances of that are basically 0 but it would be like the funniest thing ever

like internet breakingly funny

[rancid juniper]

if that happened nintendo would be memed on forever

[tranquil pebble]

exactly

[tranquil pebble]

They're right that it being illegal is a problem. So make it not illegal.

[rancid juniper]

not happening 💀

anyone familiar with how TB3 daisy chaining works?

I just had a potentially stupid thought occur to me

Could you have a KVM-equipped monitor that has a PC GPU and an eGPU plugged into it
Keeb and mouse connected to the monitor

And you connect the laptop to the eGPU, and have the mouse and keeb seamlessly switch over to the laptop?

[worthy meteor]

usually it'll take another USB cable for the USB outputs of the monitor, so you'd have to swap that around in order to make that work

[craggy shoal]

Still can't believe they were hacked

I don't get why anybody would want to take it down like wtf

I only care about it if it has my car in it.

[rancid juniper]

[chrome mirage]

It's kind of surprising how few games have a Toyota gt86 in it. I guess there was licensing issues with Toyota cars for a bit. Also finding an 8th gen civic si is even rarer.

Think I've only seen one game with a VW new beetle and it had a different front bumper than the one I had.

I'd say send a picture but you need rank

[west topaz]

Can i dm you?

[mortal grail]

Sure

I'll drop the pic here and we can chat rq

[west topaz]

Just sent it

[mortal grail]

Alr

Ima be honest I'm actually a little perplexed

It's an intel itx system, atx case

[rancid juniper]

bruh

[mortal grail]

I think an rx 580

It's a h board

Looks old af

[rancid juniper]

big case small board

[mortal grail]

I think that's ddr3?

So probably xeon

Musetex case is not that old

[west topaz]

Yeah its a GTX 1060

[mortal grail]

Ah I wasn't too far off then

So this was a prebuilt from say, 4 years ago?

[west topaz]

I7-3770 CPU @3.4 GHz

Idk if it is or isnt i bought it on facebook marketplace and was wondering if i could upgrade any of these parts

[mortal grail]

How much did you pay for it

Also when

Just curious for context

[velvet summit]

but why do dragons have so many balls

[west topaz]

$200

[mortal grail]

Not entirely relevant to the discussion and won't judge your character for it

200 ok

That's actually good

What you got was not bad

[velvet summit]

that fr is a crazy huge case for such a tiny mobo though lmao

[mortal grail]

What kind of use are you looking to get out of your pc by upgrading btw

[west topaz]

Yeah i wanted to buy this and then just upgrade

[mortal grail]

Ah ok

What's your budget mate

[west topaz]

But idk if its a prebuilt, whether i can even fit a 3080 on this thing and things of that nature

[mortal grail]

3080 is a huge step up for this system and I wouldn't recommend something like that in this

[velvet summit]

would need to upgrade mobo

[mortal grail]

Power requirements and cpu ipc would have it as a bad match

[velvet summit]

for you to use the full perf

[mortal grail]

Which I don't say often btw

But it's like putting a ferrari engine in a prius

[velvet summit]

well

[mortal grail]

If you know much about cars lol

[velvet summit]

at least that is fun

[mortal grail]

Yeah fun till it explodes

[west topaz]

Oh really 😦

[mortal grail]

Lol

[velvet summit]

that's the fun part

it's like russian roulette

[west topaz]

Damn...

Is there anything i could do with this thing

[mortal grail]

So my leading question rn is what your budget is so we can get some realistic expectations

[velvet summit]

will it explode this drive? maybe, maybe not

[west topaz]

1000

[velvet summit]

you gotta be edging 24/7

[mortal grail]

1000

Ok is that for all the stuff?

Like monitor mouse keyboard

[west topaz]

No

[mortal grail]

Or just the pc

[west topaz]

Just the pc

[mortal grail]

Ok and what's your use case

Like what will you do with the pc

[velvet summit]

gaming or work or both

[west topaz]

Game

[mortal grail]

Ok ez

Give me 4 minutes

@west topaz wifi?

[west topaz]

Okay thank you

I use ethernet but it doesnt come with a wifi adapter or anything i dont believe

[velvet summit]

asking if you need wifi

for the pc

[west topaz]

Oh no i dont

[velvet summit]

note that bluetooth wont be supported without it unless you get a bluetooth dongle

in case you want to use bluetooth devices w/ your pc

though if you only need bt, then it would be easier and probably cheaper to just get a dongle

[west topaz]

I dont really use bluetooth

[mortal grail]

How's 24 cents under budget

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rP7sbL

6800xt ≈ 3080 performance

So it might seem a little frightening but think of building a pc like building with adult lego

I would say this is pretty close to the best your budget can do

If you were willing to use aliexpress (China's version of amazon) you could do a little better

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DcNY6D

$10 more but you get about...

Like, 6% or so more fps?

Kinda worth for 1% more

7800xt is a little better than a 3080 imo

Similar RT performance but better raster performance

If anything is not making sense lmk

[west topaz]

Oh so you guys think i should just get a whole new pc altogether then

[mortal grail]

Yes

If you can spend 1000 this will be way better

That $200 pc is good for like, sub $400 things lol
