general-chat

[mental yoke]

I call it "Hell"

[nocturne flicker]

Nah, because if I had nothing I'd qualify for welfare and assistance.

[sinful blade]

I basically got nothing for the bday but rent money

@mental yoke

[mental yoke]

Hey, U paid the rent tho

[sinful blade]

Last months***

[mental yoke]

It's ok

[pastel marsh]

I even had to work an unpaid internship for a financial institution, I migrated this guy's entire cloud network by myself and rebuilt the websites with my partner. Then we get nothing

[nocturne flicker]

But because I have job that pays more than the minimum I get kicked out of eligibility for anything

And the things I still qualify for have asset limits, so I get punished for my grandmother having a home to sell when she died

[mental yoke]

Baby, bye bye bye 😛

[pastel marsh]

Astolfo

[mental yoke]

Good night yall

I gotta work at 5 am tomorrow

5 am to 4 pm

Love it.

[pastel marsh]

That's an awful schedule

[storm narwhal]

Oof starting at 5am is ass

[fresh nova]

Do I have Health Insurance? Nope
Do I love the job?
Yep

[mental yoke]

Trust, ik

[pastel marsh]

11 hrs

[mental yoke]

Sadly

[storm narwhal]

Walking up at 6am to go to work already sucks

[mental yoke]

4:00 am actually is when I usually wake up

[storm narwhal]

Ouch

[fresh nova]

I’ve got until at least what 30 before I need health insurance right

Yeah it’s fine

Everything is fine

[storm narwhal]

Just don't die bryce

[pastel marsh]

I'm just doing regarded trades in questrade to make some money. Playing off volatility with condors

[storm narwhal]

It's easy, really.

[pastel marsh]

Since no jobs

[storm narwhal]

Just say no

I do not consent to dying

[mental yoke]

Get my ice bath in, then eat breakfast, go to the gym to get a workout in, then straight to the hospital 😣

[nocturne flicker]

Just quit and get a low enough paying job, you'll qualify for rather good health insurance

[storm narwhal]

Hospital is hard work too

[pastel marsh]

I even had one line registered in Korea call me for a job I applied in Canada

[fresh nova]

I couldn’t imagine quitting this

[storm narwhal]

Esp as a nurse

[mental yoke]

...

Mf guessed my job

I am one sooooo..

[storm narwhal]

Well it's either nurse, doctor or any of the other ones

There's only so many before I hit the mark lol

[mental yoke]

My friends mom is a doctor, I'm a nurse tho

[storm narwhal]

Radiation therapist, medical physicist, MRI technician blah blah

[fresh nova]

Actually I should probably go see the dentist

[nocturne flicker]

I joke, but the cost sharing subsidies if you are poor enough and your job is trash enough with their health insurance means you can get a good plan through the Marketplace for really cheap

[pastel marsh]

I just want ai to take all jobs, give us UBI and then we get replaced by Boston dynamics dogs, which will inhabit the galaxy

That is peak humanity

[fresh nova]

But dentist like $80 a visit right

Ion need insurance for that

[mental yoke]

Gary, come home...

[pastel marsh]

I spent 230$ for my dentist today, just to say my teeth are good

[fresh nova]

Omg

I don’t need the dentist

[nocturne flicker]

I should go to the dentist. My work has good dental for uber cheap

[storm narwhal]

Well it's the cleaning and the check as well

[fresh nova]

More floride!

[storm narwhal]

You might catch something

[pastel marsh]

Cleaning clean teeth

[fresh nova]

Just more floride bro

[pastel marsh]

The guy just sprayed water

[storm narwhal]

Like an infection that's festering without your knowledge

[fresh nova]

Stop

[storm narwhal]

Oh bruh mine actually does the entire clean

[fresh nova]

Just add more floride

[storm narwhal]

The water, the weird scraping thing

That I hate

[pastel marsh]

The guy and the doctor there said I didn't need a full clean

[fresh nova]

Doc told me add more floride

[storm narwhal]

And then the toothbrush equivalent thing

[pastel marsh]

I use an electric brush

[fresh nova]

It makes my teeth feel weird like they’re hitting a nerve every time

[storm narwhal]

The rotary tooth sander

[pastel marsh]

Expensive toothbrush

[storm narwhal]

And when they touch the gums

End me

[fresh nova]

Omg

I honestly ask for gas at the dentist

[pastel marsh]

Do you guys use regular toothbrushes

[fresh nova]

Ion wanna feel nun

I prefer gas with the Anastasia shots

[storm narwhal]

Then again, I got an injection directly into my tooth before...

So maybe it's not so bad

It hurts a lot by the way

[nocturne flicker]

$1.57 a week and you get a 100/80/50/50 plan with $75 deductible for dental

[storm narwhal]

Would not reccomend

Don't chip your tooth

[fresh nova]

I don’t want that

I will ask for gas

[storm narwhal]

Gas me up

[fresh nova]

One time they put the gas mix too high

Oh Jesus

I was seeing purple circles

🟣

[storm narwhal]

I can taste red bro

[fresh nova]

Lmao

Tastes like purple

[pastel marsh]

Ah yes asphyxiation

[storm narwhal]

I can smell light

[craggy shoal]

I can hear colors

[fresh nova]

Hahaha

Thing with gas is it legit forces it down your nose

[pastel marsh]

Do you guys own $NEGG

[craggy shoal]

What

[pastel marsh]

New egg stock

[fresh nova]

And why does it smell weird

Why do they scent the gas

I remember Bippos asking if I wanted bubble gum gas

Like huh

[nocturne flicker]

NEGG is worthless

[pastel marsh]

There is a chance

[nocturne flicker]

It was only funny when it went on nasdaq and there were price shenanigans going on

Now it is just sad

[pastel marsh]

It's on the NASDAQ cm

It was on the nyse, which was where it was traded a lot

[nocturne flicker]

And it might get kicked off, Nasdaq requires a $1 bid price, NEGG is currently at .65

[pastel marsh]

NASDAQ cm is small caps

[fresh nova]

Monies

[pastel marsh]

Dabloons

Most of my money is in intc options

Pat gelsinger literally prays on Twitter

[nocturne flicker]

Also, NEGG has literally been warned of not being of sufficient price to be listed on the Nasdaq multiple times

[pastel marsh]

They failed to report earnings a couple times if that's what you mean

[nocturne flicker]

Stock price

They must get to be or above $1 for at least 10 days

[pastel marsh]

They could just do a 1:2 split

Or in this case 1:10

Then 6$ again

[nocturne flicker]

In fact, NEGG has been in deficiency status since May

[pastel marsh]

But it has a chance to hatch

[nocturne flicker]

That is just hopium

[pastel marsh]

🐣

[nocturne flicker]

They'll have to ask the Nasdaq for an extension of the grace period by November 4th or they will be delisted from the Nasdaq

[pastel marsh]

I don't have a position in it, but I did short it awhile ago

And ofc puts

[pastel marsh]

NASDAQ CM doesn't require it though

It's like the Russell version of the NASDAQ

Even though I hate that index since it's apple mainly

[nocturne flicker]

NASDAQ CM initial listing requirement is a $4 share bid price, continued listing requires $1 share bid price

Newegg has been below $1 frequently since May and has not been able to recover long enough to get out of deficiency. Their stock has also been on a downward trend since a brief spike in July. That is why they are listed on the Nasdaq website under the list of noncompliant companies

[pastel marsh]

Truly down bad

They did fail to report earnings before for 3 years, so I guess they'll listen in that time

[craggy shoal]

I want milk

[nocturne flicker]

They report them on their website for investors sometimes. The most recent one was in August. Sales down 14.5% for the first half of the year yoy, gross profit down 22.4% for the first half yoy

[craggy shoal]

Guys I really want milk

https://tenor.com/view/meme-milk-gif-6919750708092698197

[craggy shoal]

Me rn

[nocturne flicker]

What is that? You want more Newegg earnings report info? Can do buddy

[craggy shoal]

Nah I want milk 😭

[nocturne flicker]

Newegg's first half of 2024 yoy GMV (or the total value of products sold) declined 15.4%

In other words, not stonks

Do not pass $1, do not maintain Nasdaq listing

[craggy shoal]

Do not pass Go, do not collect $200

Yeah it's late. Yeah I'm still calling her

[devout forum]

It's nice

[opaque sedge]

What software do I typically use to control the colors of my rgb fans?

[storm narwhal]

Signalrgb or Openrgb I guess

[deep parcel]

OpenRGB is baller

[storm narwhal]

There you go

[mortal grail]

I'll open ur rgb in a minute

[storm narwhal]

Ayo

But I guess even though is not tuesday it's a special day so

[mortal grail]

I'll open ur special in a minute

[opaque sedge]

I tried openrgb and when i tried running it ij administrator mode it made my pc lose display

[storm narwhal]

I'm about to hit Q bro

[deep parcel]

wack

mine doesnt do that lol

I am running a relatively old build of OpenRGB though

I use it for my razer mouse

[storm narwhal]

Unfortunately I use razer synapse

[deep parcel]

I mean you literally need it for certain things

but honestly, going without it is amazing

razer synapse has so much bloat

[opaque sedge]

Yh it might be windows i tried downloading signalrgb and windows defender popped up saying running the app might put my pc at risk

[storm narwhal]

That's normal

[opaque sedge]

So just hit run anyways?

[deep parcel]

did you download this from https://openrgb.org/ ?

[opaque sedge]

yup

[deep parcel]

then yeah should be fine

[mortal grail]

Oh man

My loop is so quiet now

Which alone isn't a problem but I don't see the rgb unless I'm sat at the desk

I'm gonna be prone to leaving my pc on now

Lmfao

[opaque sedge]

Tried running it again as administrator and my pc froze then display went out

[mortal grail]

It has like the slightest hum

[mortal grail]

Then don't do that

Just do normally

[opaque sedge]

It asks you to run as administrator

[mortal grail]

Then kill any other rgb programs and try again

Driver conflicts go crazy

[deep parcel]

on my pc I have OpenRGB, RGBFusion 2.0, and NZXT Cam running all at the same time handling RGB

[opaque sedge]

Meh gave up decided to run it not as an administrator and ignore the error

Hopefully it didn’t break my pc

[deep parcel]

you wanna try my version of OpenRGB?

im tired lol

it shouldnt break it lol

[opaque sedge]

Its cool i’m only gonna run single colors mostly

[deep parcel]

my entire pc is static green

I hate rainbow puke lol

[opaque sedge]

Nah losing the display and freezing and hearing all the fans go loud kind of scared me a little

[deep parcel]

openrgb isnt supposed to do that at all

I dont know why it would be doing that

I could send you this version

which is what ive been using since 2021

oh wait I dont even need to send it to you lol

https://openrgb.org/releases.html try release 0.6 @opaque sedge its what im on

[deep parcel]

oh I just read this... thats signalRGB... I have zero clue about signalRGB...

thats why your fans were ramping up

because they have built in features for that

on SignalRGB

but they are like paid features? OpenRGB is completely free and opensource

ew the free version of signalRGB has ads...

[opaque sedge]

Nah went back to open rgb after you gave me the link

Also guys is this artifacting by any chance?

On cyberpunk and i dont think i’ve ever noticed this before

Looks very pixelated

[mortal grail]

Could be dlss or artifacting

And no I don't know for sure

[opaque sedge]

Running it on native

Is there anyway to check gpu health?

[mortal grail]

Native then yes could well be artifacting

No??

Lol

Maybe your gpu was never the issue 💀

[deep parcel]

try underclocking your gpu a lil

[mortal grail]

Am I correct, did you exchange this to a new gpu again

If this is gpu #4 then you definitely have something else unstable

[deep parcel]

might be boosting too agressively

[somber skiff]

underclocking 🤮

[deep parcel]

I mean it could potentially "fix" the problem

[mortal grail]

Might as well just die amirite

[opaque sedge]

I think my pc’s cooked

[mortal grail]

That's just render

That's common af on old games

[opaque sedge]

Its cyberpunk tho…

[mortal grail]

So?

It's not beyond the basics of pc rendering

[deep parcel]

it kinda looks like the real time raytracing maybe

[opaque sedge]

Nope its off

[deep parcel]

is this with or without raytracing on

ah

[opaque sedge]

When i turn on ray tracing dont notice that pixelation tho

[mortal grail]

If you stand on the edge of a lightsource, and you move your camera into the boundaries of that light source, it will render within draw distance and things change

[deep parcel]

could just be the games lighting being spaghetti code

[mortal grail]

That is completely normal behaviour

Again, this was common af in old games

[opaque sedge]

Yup this isn’t happening when rt is on

[mortal grail]

Bruh

[deep parcel]

I still need to finish cyberpunk... just havent felt like it

[opaque sedge]

Yh might be been noticing crap like this happen in elden ring too, i’m gonna try other games out

[deep parcel]

I did all the side content tho I think... maybe a few side gigs were added since I last played... I also dont have the DLC

[mortal grail]

[deep parcel]

Like Felix said, its likely just the old lighting methods for non raytraced games.

[mortal grail]

I bet if you move like 1 meter closer to it then the problem stops

[opaque sedge]

What else do you think could be the issue? The ram mobo cpu?

[mortal grail]

Possible

You changed the psu so that's out

SSD maybe or install could also be the benefactor

[opaque sedge]

which of these are good games to check system stability?

[somber skiff]

ycruncher

[mortal grail]

Yep

What he said

[somber skiff]

vst/vt3

[opaque sedge]

its a program right?

[mortal grail]

If you want to check gpu stability after, warzone or superimposition 8k

[somber skiff]

If you want something easy, https://benchmate.org/ and run yc 2.5b a few times

Also https://www.ocbase.com/

[mortal grail]

Yup

OCCT is excellent

Lad's like one of the only guy's who hasn't caught a stray in the oc community lmao

Just plodded along until he was widely recognised

[opaque sedge]

Running occt cpu+ram and says no errors for the past minute

[somber skiff]

Iench said he wants to add a "wood" tier OC cert for xoc level of stability haha

[mortal grail]

Gotta do longer than a minute

[mortal grail]

ubm vibes lol

https://tenor.com/view/userbenchmark-loserbenchmark-amd-cpus-ryzen-9-gif-14924051200525580898

[somber skiff]

I asked if we could have a max watts scoreboard

[opaque sedge]

Auto is ok for thread settings right?

[mortal grail]

I mean for light stability issues maybe

VT3 would be more thorough

[opaque sedge]

What settings should i pick?

[elfin mural]

lbm

[mortal grail]

I tend to opt to OCCT for things like corecycling, IMC tests or cycle 19 cpu

[elfin mural]

loserbenchmark

CPUPro, more like INTELShill

[mortal grail]

Large extreme variable cycle 19 instruction avx512 core cycling default

[opaque sedge]

Alright done

Is the program good for testing gpu stability as well?

[mortal grail]

Super imposition 8K is better

Or again, warzone

Cycle 2 TSE on loop also works

Bit less reliable tho

Most of OCCT's tools I use for burn-in tests

[opaque sedge]

Whats super imposition? Cant find anything abt it

[mortal grail]

A benchmark

8K is the render option

[opaque sedge]

Oh its from uniengine

I’ll take a look once the cpu and ram test is done

[elfin mural]

you're contributing to the society

damn

wegg has core ultra stickers now

but where's ultra 7

[mortal grail]

Theo didn't buy that one

So not there

[elfin mural]

gotta cover dem cpus

and board model

xd

[somber skiff]

That's obvious though

[elfin mural]

ya

[mortal grail]

Model isn't covered

It says it right there lol

He covered S/N's lol

[elfin mural]

maximus

oh serial numbers

right

[mortal grail]

Apex above the pcie slot

It does look cleaner than my current apex

But I'll live

[elfin mural]

i wanna see benches

of the 245k

[icy ore]

https://tenor.com/view/tape-gif-8649156

[somber skiff]

Why 245?

[elfin mural]

what the heck is an HL sku

[opaque sedge]

Are my eyes playing tricks on me or am i seeing three ram slots

[elfin mural]

i just wanna see the lowest chip compared against

something like 7800x3d

[mortal grail]

1's dimm.2

[elfin mural]

or the 9800x3d in the future

[mortal grail]

Ngl I'm thinking about 9800x3d

[opaque sedge]

For expansions?

[opaque sedge]

Dont you already have a 7800x3d?

[mortal grail]

Maybe if my 7950X3D rma takes too long I could ask for an exchange

[opaque sedge]

Damn what happened

[mortal grail]

I/O die fried itself

I didn't even have a bad bios

Bios was updated before I even used the board with the cpu

It started flakey then got worse to the point where more than 2 usb devices would cause mad freezing and crashing

I sent both board and cpu back, cpu was flagged dead, board wasn't

And I'm glad the board wasn't it's a bloody gene

They don't make those anymore

I need to repad the chipset when it gets back tho

[opaque sedge]

Did your mobo’s cpu socket get fried too?

[mortal grail]

They missed the pads on mine, not that it'll kill it without, just pepega

No

[opaque sedge]

Like those asus boards?

[mortal grail]

No

I am well aware of what those are and I wouldn't have dared tried to use it if that happened

[opaque sedge]

Did u send the send the board to its own manufacturer? Or does amd take a look at those as well

[mortal grail]

I sent it to the shop I bought it from

[opaque sedge]

Ah

[mortal grail]

Warranties work differently here

[opaque sedge]

Here you gotta mail em

At your own expense

Sometimes the companies send a shipping label tho

Wondering how it looks with the intended expansion

[mortal grail]

Same here but the shops not companies

Keep thermal grizzly handy?

[somber skiff]

Roman gave me a tub, I would not pay for that

[mortal grail]

Would you use it tho

[somber skiff]

Nor would I goop a perfectly good mobo like that 🤮

[opaque sedge]

Woah a nude mobo

[mortal grail]

It's a board that goes on a pin wall when all's said and done

[somber skiff]

Why wouldn't I? It's great paste, but I wouldn't spend $100 for a tub

[mortal grail]

It must stay preserved

[mortal grail]

Extreme or regular

Extreme ok

But regular meh

$100 with the operational life of like $25 worth of mx-6 lol

Ok it's a little forgivable

Weird segway btw

2 days ago I found a half finished tube myself

I haven't used Kryo for over 2 years

It's probably completely useless now

Might evaporate in 10 minutes rather than 6 months now

Actually it'd be more like 3 years now

[somber skiff]

I'll never complain about free paste

[mortal grail]

Maybe even 4

[mortal grail]

When I used to play comp, I'd get freebies as payoff for spending thousands on plane tickets until I was sponsored

It got old fast lol

Now I don't bother if I don't get covered for the 4K travel expenses lmfao

Though that doesn't really apply here

Roman wasn't funding the trip lol

[mortal grail]

Or I should say, I don't bother or tell my (former) teammates to bother

I've been out of the scene for almost a year now

[mighty hazel]

felix esports era

I wanted to get a Viper Mini but they seemed to have stopped production of it

[mortal grail]

It's always amusing when people tell me I don't know how to build a PC for comp gaming

Like the classic "Radeon bad for fortnite" dumb comments

It's not bad, you just haven't seen it when it works lol

[tranquil pebble]

Rust exists. Now waiting for Rust++ and Rust#.

[mortal grail]

What about Rustscript

[tranquil pebble]

lol real... Radeon gives the most frames per dollar

[mortal grail]

Radeon is unironically better at fortnite if you know the right settings

[tranquil pebble]

just set everything to lowest

[mortal grail]

Smh

[mighty hazel]

true most of them dont even know about comp gaming

they just repeat what pros say

[fresh nova]

Ah yes fully autonomous self driving has been enabled

Love that

[craggy shoal]

"idk how to drive so I'll let a robot do it for me"

I wonder if that's why a lot of Teslas on the road are bad at driving honestly

Like either bad driving or let the car drive

[fresh nova]

Sooo there are cases when the AI is better than a human

Mathematically it makes sense

The car is able to see 360 degrees around me anticipating crashes & car movements before they happen.
I can only see in one direction at a time

[craggy shoal]

Yeah but I like to drive unlawfully lol. Not exactly driving like an ass but sometimes I can't stand the speed limit

[fresh nova]

If I’m about to get rear ended unless I happened to be looking in the rear view I wouldn’t know it was coming

[craggy shoal]

Driving is fun for me. I hate when I have someone driving for me unless they enjoy driving too

[fresh nova]

Whereas the car would avoid the accident by either speeding up or lane switching

[unreal trail]

vroom

[fresh nova]

Oh I do too, you can’t drive a Performance car & not do this.

Otherwise what the heck is the point in buying a Perf

[craggy shoal]

More torque than the average road car doesn't make it a "performance car" lol. There's a lot more to it

[fresh nova]

Oh trust me I know

[craggy shoal]

nah 💀

[fresh nova]

$10,000 in track upgrades says otherwise

[unreal trail]

an AI would hit a kid to avoid the most damage of a head on collision, whereas I would pull off the road into a yard to avoid both.

[craggy shoal]

[fresh nova]

I drove gas before

TAURUS SHO

[unreal trail]

I drove coal before

[craggy shoal]

Taurus SHO is a performance car for sure

0-60 times aren't everything though

I mean yeah Teslas aren't the worst in drag races (by far) but put it through any other test

[fresh nova]

Well Mountain Pass Performance parts fix that

I worked with them closely on every upgrade

I also worked with my mechanic, I don’t use a shop I have a dedicated mechanic that only works on my car. So he knows everything on it & everything he did. IE. I don’t use multiple mechanics

[craggy shoal]

I still prefer a Golf GTI lol

My mom rlly found an Xbox One S for $10 at a garage sale, turned it on, found an account on there with $450 worth of games and Xbox Game Pass 🙂

[craggy shoal]

[craggy shoal]

See if you can change the email to your so you can own all the games

[mental yoke]

Ok bet

Testing now

Well actually it's gotta wait

Cuz I'm making my morning coffee rn

[craggy shoal]

Idk if it's possible but definitely try lol (theoretically it should work lol)

[opaque sedge]

I got done with ma case swap

Headphone jack aint working tho

But meh i can live without it ig

[oak gale]

what are some good places to find tech support

[velvet summit]

headphone jack not working?

[velvet summit]

like, what kind lmao

[oak gale]

hardware?

my laptop is on the verge on dying

[sinful blade]

Desktop time

[velvet summit]

you could ask in #building-and-recc-chat

[oak gale]

i just tryna keep it alive for 1 more year to buy a new one 😭

[velvet summit]

also wdym by verge of dying

there's not really a health bar on laptops

lmao

[oak gale]

i will need to explain the whole issue for it to make sense

ill type it out in build chat ig

[velvet summit]

if it's overheating, the heatsinks are probably clogged with dust

and/or it needs a repaste

[pliant berry]

I have the perfect solution: linux

[opaque sedge]

Yeah not getting any audio from there

From the case one

The usb’s all work tho

[velvet summit]

did you plug in the audio header

[opaque sedge]

I did

Maybe its a bad one from the case?

Notsure if i should get an exchange ngl

[velvet summit]

if you dont care about it working, maybe see if you can get a partial refund because of it?

though they'll probably want to to send it in

so idk if it's quite worth the effort for you at least

[pastel marsh]

Or just fix the issue

[velvet summit]

my assumption is that there's an internal break in wire(s) because usually the front audio should just work

especially considering how thin the wires tend to be

[lone mango]

Chase cam still sounds weird but its not that big of a deal, whatever

i'll accept it

It looks really nice at night though

[rancid juniper]

game is going to be released as early access

they'll fix it soon

[lone mango]

My bad I didn't mention exhaust

I mean the chase cam exhaust still sounds like there is a phaser put on it

like acc

It also looked really good at 4:00

[rancid juniper]

interior view is very nice

[opaque sedge]

Yeah might be was also a tight fit in the power supply compartment since the cables are in the bottom chamber

[opaque sedge]

Oh nvm i powered off the pc and unplugged and plugged the audio header again and its working

Now if i want to get speakers in the future i’m worry free now

[pastel marsh]

https://tenor.com/view/zenless-zone-zero-zzz-burnice-zzz-burnice-dance-gif-12981349172722860396

[opaque sedge]

Should i get an aio or a smaller air cooler?

[pastel marsh]

Why do you need to upgrade

[opaque sedge]

Meh just looks

[velvet summit]

💀

[opaque sedge]

Probably not gonna tho i find removing heatsinks a pain in the butt

(I hate the fan clips)

[velvet summit]

if you want looks just change the fans or smth so that it matches the case fans or smth idk

i wouldnt change it to an aio or smaller air cooler though

[opaque sedge]

Honestly i would be fine if the fans didn’t keep sliding down

They dont stay up

[velvet summit]

that is weird

[opaque sedge]

Did my clips wear out?

[velvet summit]

idk

but mine dont slide at all

though mine is a noctua

[sinful blade]

Time for peerless assassin x

[velvet summit]

so it's not even the same clip design nor the same brand

but i dont feel like it's supposed to be able to slide down

[sinful blade]

@velvet summit what would work better? A 5600g or an RX580

[pastel marsh]

580

[sinful blade]

I don’t know apus very well yet

[pastel marsh]

But 5600g is good if you don't wanna spend extra

The Intel Arc cards are cheapest on Newegg

[sinful blade]

@pastel marsh how about a 550?

[oak gale]

its basicly that the issue is getting worse by time , and am afraid by the end of it my laptop will nolnoger be able to boot

i've typed the whole thing in build chat

[pastel marsh]

[pastel marsh]

This is similar to a 4060

[sinful blade]

https://www.newegg.com/p/3D5-0012-005Y4?

This is what I wanted originally

But I might have to settle for something slightly cheaper for the moment

[pastel marsh]

5600g is like a GTX 1050

[sinful blade]

Done a little bit of research on it now

Seems like a “1055”

[dusk knot]

honestly i would remove the hdd, and change the ssd to one of the ADATA ones

you could probably get a better build if you diy instead of buying from a SI, you can ask in build chat for parts reccs for your budget and region (which would probably be india considering the currency)

[devout forum]

Well then

Seems like AMD is gonna hit back hard quickly

do we believe the November 7 release date rumors?

[elfin mural]

i'll nitpick the 9800x3d's price

if the rumor's true

i wouldn't be surprised if it's a $500 launch sku

or $450

@fresh nova do I buy open benchtable

[craggy shoal]

I didn't know what an Open Benchtable is. I have no need for one but I really want one now

[fresh nova]

Yes

Basically Theo

I actually recommend running your entire Pc on one

It’s soooo easy to hot swap components

And upgrading is simple

No need to disassemble a case

I think both @somber skiff & I run our rigs without a case at all, just components sitting out

[mental yoke]

NAHHH

That's beyond crazy

[craggy shoal]

My dumb ass would just 3D print an enclosure for it

[velvet summit]

lmao

[mental yoke]

My best friends boyfriend just texted her and said: "I'm tryna watch HBO Max and hit it from the back" 💀

[velvet summit]

test benches get so dusty though

[craggy shoal]

[mental yoke]

Like bro get on somewhere

[mental yoke]

[fresh nova]

PG-13

[dusk knot]

👀

[fresh nova]

PG-13 warning

[craggy shoal]

"I guess" wym bruh

[fresh nova]

Anyways

Theo

Running your components outside a case makes less dust
Parts get more dust in a case than outside of one, as outside of a case the dust can flow through

[devout forum]

Dust tends to settle on horizontal surfaces

Testbenches conveniently make your largest component (the mobo) a horizontal surface
So more dust

Checkmate open conceptists

[craggy shoal]

So I'll print a stand for it so I can vertically mount it

easy

[velvet summit]

well, it's more like, you have 0 filtered intakes at all

pcs without a dust filter also get quite dusty

which is why pretty much every case has a filtered intake at this point

and it gets caked up

[devout forum]

I mean with a testbench

It's one big UNfiltered intake

[proud jackal]

@fresh nova I need to buy a shorter reso if I do

[fresh nova]

UNO REVERSE CARD

I checkmate your checkmate

[fresh nova]

That dust flows through, all I'm saying is I been using this for the past year & I notice it's a lot less dust.

[dusk knot]

Woagh

[proud jackal]

@fresh nova how long did it take to ship from china

[fresh nova]

China?

Huh

I have no idea

I didn't know it came from China

[proud jackal]

How long did shipping take

[fresh nova]

It's been so long I couldn't give you an honest answer.

[proud jackal]

I'll just recycle the case I have then

Wish me luck y'all

I'm going to get my Covid vaccine and flu shots

[sweet phoenix]

The covid shot always messes me up for 2-3 days

[mental yoke]

Literally

[sweet phoenix]

I gotta get mine next month

[mental yoke]

Wish me luck tho

My huge biceps aren't ready

[sweet phoenix]

I got my covid shot with another vaccine that's known for messing you up (always forget the name) and I genuinely thought i was dying the next day

All I remember is waking up on and off with a horrible migraine and barely able to tell what's going on for a whole day afterwards

[mental yoke]

Omg fr

[weak cedar]

Covid shot didn't do anything to me but my dad looked dead he was the same way as you messed up hurting the next few days

[gleaming sedge]

would this work for my microphone it uses a printer cable and i bought a sound mixer from walmart just to mess with and it has aux only? https://www.amazon.com/Female-Converter-Adapter-Player-Computer/dp/B07Y8J4XM9/ref=sr_1_16?

[gleaming sedge]

ahh maybe i just need to buy another mic

[weak cedar]

It depends on how the wiring is set up from my personal view

[gleaming sedge]

maybe

[weak cedar]

It depends on how it's set up not sure the usb end

Because that part I would have no clue 😅

[mental yoke]

So went into Costco to buy a few things, and on my way out, got distracted by the new intel laptops and decided to test a few of them and almost got kicked out 💀

[weak cedar]

The other end would need to convert

If it's not then ya it's not going to work

[mental yoke]

Saw the prices on them $2.5k for one, $1.2k for another

[gleaming sedge]

the other end is not usb

[mental yoke]

Like damn okay costco 😣

[gleaming sedge]

https://www.amazon.com/Printer-Sweguard-Scanner-Compatible-DAC-Black/dp/B095HM21WV/ref=sr_1_15?

thats the other end that goes into my mic

well nvm im being dumb the one end is usb

[weak cedar]

Personal it looks like a scam they plugged audio stright into usb 😅

I honestly would avoid it
The 5 stars great reviews vs people who reviewd it and gave the usb to aux 1 star

[craggy shoal]

Low intelligence alert (the red circle)

[misty sparrow]

you almost got kicked out? what the hell did you do to those laptops?

hopefully, this isn't you

[granite estuary]

eggs

[mental yoke]

No no, it was just that I was doing something that ws apparently triggering the employees 💀

Cuz I was being stared at

[craggy shoal]

goofy ahh CostCo employees

Bro was probably trying to get employee of the month 💀

No way bro gets paid enough lol

[random osprey]

dont like my cmf phone, switching back to apple

[dusk knot]

iPhone.....

16

[random osprey]

better than my android phone

[dusk knot]

What was that?

[random osprey]

cmf phone 1

[dusk knot]

🐺

[random osprey]

the iphone is for my mom, her birthday soon

real note though, the iphone actually is better than my cmf phone rn because of the fact that my phone drops calls like crazy or doesnt even receive calls or messages

spent like an hour trying to setup a doctors appointment because the call would drop every time

[misty sparrow]

cmf phone?

[random osprey]

ye

more budget friendly company by Nothing

[wind quail]

CMF phone is such good value

[random osprey]

except coverage here in the US for it is a bit

[wind quail]

that sounds like a carrier issue/bad unit

[dusk knot]

She got you a really cheap phone

[random osprey]

doesnt really seem like it if theres tutorials to try and fix it everywhere for their phone and watch

[random osprey]

i bought the cmf phone

i also bought the iphone

[dusk knot]

How much was it?

The cmf phone

[random osprey]

roughly $377 usd

[dusk knot]

E

that won't do

[wind quail]

contact support ,possibly a dodgy unit, possibly carrier issues

[wind quail]

its supposed to be like 200 did you import it?

[random osprey]

on wifi, everything works just fine for the cmf phone with calls and texting, just when im out and about its a bit dodgy

[wind quail]

yeah that could be either carrier issue or phone issue

contact cmf support

[dusk knot]

Phone issue

Weak receiver probably

[wind quail]

wifi and cell are 2 different chips on the phone

[wind quail]

or just a bad unit more likely

[dusk knot]

That to

Smh, wolf.

[random osprey]

amazon is $270. at the time i made the purchase in september, cmf didnt have any pre-orders or any available units for sale and even when i signed up for their newsletter, they didnt even notify me about it being restocked or when it was in stock

and the amazon one i double checked to make sure it was rando third party seller

[wind quail]

is CMF not available in the US or something?

[random osprey]

"beta program"

[wind quail]

hmm

welll that didnt help

[random osprey]

i assume not considering it was out for a while before it became available to the US

also slightly off topic but the whole gimmick to this phone is that its modular and you can replace the back of the phone with different colors and a little knob with a kickstand, wallet, or lanyard. been 2 months since the restock of the phone and they still havent restocked the accessories for the phone 🗿

[dusk knot]

Buying unknowns. Idk

[random osprey]

Nothing has been around for a couple years now

[dusk knot]

Nothing earbuds?

And phones? Does anyone have any of their products?

[random osprey]

I havent seen anyone out in the wild with them, just reviewers

samsung and iphone seem to be the only phone companies i see 🗿

[dusk knot]

Pixel phones ahem

[random osprey]

still have yet to see anyone with one

[granite estuary]

Hi weggers

what

[wind quail]

in the clerb.. we all fam!

[misty sparrow]

i mean of course its better than your old phone

old phone's $270 while iphone 16 is $700

they can squeeze better materials and hardware in a $700 pricetag

they can also squeeze at least a 90HZ panel in a $700 phone, but too bad Apple still sticks with 60HZ

[granite radish]

60hz is so ahh if they make it anything higher even 90 it will damage their pro lineup sales

[misty sparrow]

one of the major differentiations between basic iphone models and Pro models is the panel and thats probably why a lot of people buy it even though they dont necessarily NEED a pro phone

although other android phone manufacturers make basic models and higher quality models, the basic ones at least start at 90HZ

its a really funny world we live in now, every phone release back then took years and every new one had some difference. now we just release them yearly with very little difference, and for some reason Pro models to bank on more money

[lone mango]

iphone users seeing an android that has a larger battery and faster panel for cheaper

[wind quail]

cough cough CMF phone €240 and 120hz screen

[misty sparrow]

the amount of control Apple has over the US phone market is staggering and knowing the US they aren't going to introduce consumer-friendly laws to mitigate this

[wind quail]

linus literally ranted about ios for 45 mins on wan show the other week and they uploaded it as one clip

[lone mango]

more channel reorganization

[wind quail]

idek how like why are americans so afraid to use whatsapp or something

[misty sparrow]

Apple has conditioned Americans to believe that anything other than their options are cheap, low quality

specifically, their message app

[wind quail]

its so wack

i hate IOS so much

[empty tide]

Do tell

[misty sparrow]

it would be simpler if the US had done something a long time ago

they should have done it a while ago but did not

[lone mango]

Doesnt new ios and android now have rcs though

[wind quail]

its a crappy half assed implementation

yes it does but its only like better SMS basically

[lone mango]

[wind quail]

it doesnt have encryption or any of the major benefits that RCS has

[lone mango]

[misty sparrow]

i wonder what would happen if steve jobs was revived and saw apple as it is now

would he facepalm

how would he react

[wind quail]

lol

[lone mango]

[misty sparrow]

how would he react knowing that every new phone model released now has very little innovation and difference

[wind quail]

you want a list?
UI is crap
stuff just doesnt work a lot of the time, for example you cant download a video from say onedrive to your photos folder and when uploading stuff you can only upload from that in basically every app
the keyboard is onesize fits all (its really short)
no number row option in the keyboard
Overpriced

just what i can think of off the top of my head

[sweet phoenix]

Caught making their phones purposefully faulty

Oh and can I mention for a second time just to drive it home

[wind quail]

well not faulty but slower that wasnt a great play

[sweet phoenix]

overpriced

[wind quail]

oh the repairability of them is purposefully horrible

[misty sparrow]

oh my god their "files" app on iphone is so bad to the point where if you download an MP4 video there will not be an option to save to Photos if you wanna send it somewhere as a watchable video, it will instead download into the Files app and you can't put it into Photos

[empty tide]

I'm an android guy so I don't know how bad it is

[misty sparrow]

and it's also bad how every browser on iOS has to be built from the same stupid webkit

[wind quail]

same but this is what ive heard from others/using friends/exes phones as they where iphones

[misty sparrow]

so all of them have this stupid problem where if you're downloading something you have to keep the phone unlocked on that app as it's downloading, if your phone locks or you switch apps the download stops

[empty tide]

Excuse me?

[misty sparrow]

and US iPhones aren't able to install third-party app stores yet

only EU iphones

[wind quail]

oh also US iphones got rid of physical sim? just because?

[misty sparrow]

meanwhile my sorry ass could have gotten an Android phone that isn't locked down and has more usability

easy to repair

[wind quail]

when its not doing anything, its on every other iphone?

[misty sparrow]

but because Apple has the US by its balls they can do anything they want in the phone market

any little minute change they make becomes standard even if it's bad

[empty tide]

Oh god I knew the iPhone was locked down but I didn't know it was this bad

[misty sparrow]

no phone chargers in box, no earbuds, etc

no headphone jack

every single god damn change

because they have that much power

[wind quail]

tbf no phone has one in this day and age

and honestly it makes sense

[empty tide]

No wonder its "" safer "", you can't do half the crap you can on android

[misty sparrow]

Samsung will put out ads saying "hehehe Apple removed this but WE still have it" and then copy what Apple did years later

[wind quail]

3.5mm jacks take up a lot of valuable space

[misty sparrow]

"Unlike Apple, WE include the charger in the box" meanwhile several years pass and they announce they take it out

hypocrisy

at its finest

[wind quail]

also id like to stress how much lightning sucked

[misty sparrow]

it was only kept alive by their unwillingness to switch to USB-C, the EU had to force them to change to it

[wind quail]

their cables are made of fricking dry spaghetti or something

[misty sparrow]

because they knew their proprietary cord was making bank off accessories and the like, they had complete control over it

[wind quail]

i swear ive never seen a lightning cable last longer than a year theyre always broken

[misty sparrow]

(well thank god mine's lasted several)

[wind quail]

the tiny battery size sucks too

and lack of charging speed

[misty sparrow]

but anyway, if there's any company that should get sued by the US govt. for being a monopoly it's Apple

[wind quail]

and id like to stress again the repairability

ITS SO HARD TO OPEN ONE TO REPLACE THE BATTERY

you need like 69 different screw drivers

[misty sparrow]

and if you do replace the battery with a thirdparty one it will lock features out because you didn't use THEIR battery

you didn't get parts from them

you have to repair the phone using Apple-certified parts, even if the third-party parts are fine. they lock features out if you use thirdparty parts to make it seem like your parts are faulty

[wind quail]

oh and a fingerprint sensor is nice!

especially during covid i remember all the people being like ah crap when they pull out their phone to pay

[sweet phoenix]

Tbf, they do have an issue with their sim cards dying

[wind quail]

huh?

[sweet phoenix]

Not a huge issue

[wind quail]

its fried sims??

[sweet phoenix]

Specifically iPhone 13 had a small number of dying sim cards from boost

[wind quail]

weird never heard of that

[sweet phoenix]

Idk if any other models or carriers were affected

[wind quail]

i hate carrier phones too 😭

[sweet phoenix]

I only know since my partners did lmao

[wind quail]

oof

[sweet phoenix]

It's an easy fix but really annoying

[wind quail]

yeah wtf

its better cause it can make calls without the need of wifi, not because of the price tag.

why does this chat always devolve whenever apple is mentioned

Does the montech xr have worse airflow than the 903 air?

[sinful blade]

XR is smaller isn’t it?

[opaque sedge]

Smaller fishtank style with 120mm fans

Air has 140 with front facing intake

My gpu temps rose up by almost 10c which is why i got concerned

it's kinda crazy cuz the GPUs & motherboard orientation is uh

well

I think my gpu might be cooked ngl the temps do not make sense

THATS WHY THE SEGOTEP GANK 360 IS ANOTHER TOP CHOICE FOR ANY OF YOUR GAMING NEEDS

maybe some fans here might help

[idle nexus]

are the side fans reverse airflow type?

[opaque sedge]

Yh i’m looking for some cheap ones

[opaque sedge]

Intake with reverse blades

From montech they had those included

[idle nexus]

ah okay was gonna say otherwise there's no air going in at all lol

[opaque sedge]

Doesn’t have an rgb hub tho

Only splitters

[idle nexus]

that's fine

I'd put 3 fans under the GPU blowing upwards & another 3 on top blowing down (that whole "fighting physics" thing doesn't really matter because hot air's tendency to move upwards is very weak compared to fans pushing air)

the back is open enough that it's not like there's gonna be crazy positive pressure or something

anyway, at the minimum, I'd put at least one fan directly below the GPU

heck you could even try moving the rear fan there for the time being

[opaque sedge]

Yes that’s genius most setups dont even need much exhaust

And if i notice temps lowering then its the airflow def

[idle nexus]

if you have plans to buy fancy fans later on, you could get a 5-pack of P12s for $24 for now https://www.amazon.com/ARCTIC-P12-Pacco-Silenziosa-Ottimizzata/dp/B07HC7P3HJ/ref=sr_1_1?

I think I've gotten those 5 packs like 3-4 times now lol

they're just such good fans for the price

[opaque sedge]

I was thinking of an aio in the future and repurposing my heatsink fans onto the bottom

[proud jackal]

I have a 5pack also, used it for a mining rig and they still work

[idle nexus]

280 or 360 AIO on top (which ever fits) wouldn't be a bad idea

[opaque sedge]

Both can fit

Just not 380
