CES 2025 to be packed with announcements from AMD AMD said to be launching not one but five new series at CES, including many new products. If the last few months felt slow, January should be far more exciting than any weather forecast predicts. NVIDIA is expected to announce its GeForce RTX 50 series, while […]

We live in an era where anyone can use DaVinci Resolve to make memes with. Just think about that.
Core Ultra sometimes losing to AM4 CPUs is both hilarious and sad at the same time
llol what?
yea i know that but i didn't know people use that to make memes
i thought they use like premiere pro or something
people usually don't... but the option is there

THE SEES GUN IS COMPLETE
nice
Its so good
also evoker not gun lol
now... summon a persona
lol
Some acids taste good though... such as citric acid
A touch of citric acid in a complex mix of flavors… i dare you to try citric acid on its own
Hey @velvet summit you suggested me a 2TB nvme that’s better than the crucial P3 plus for about the same price or less
I forgot what it is but it’s for my MSI B550-A Pro
@rancid juniper I broke Hot pursuit 2010

I worked out that the cops are literally hopeless if you spot them on the side of the road as you can total them instantly
100% police presence and yet 0% police presence for almost the whole race
bro got too good at the game
I'm literally untouchable
I get full nitrous after each police takedown so I make up all my lost time
NFS Cold Pursuit
💀
Nfs: most wanted is a better game 100%
did i? lmao i forget what i said as well 💀
was it me that suggested something
I already finished it
Oh so basically right so I have a B550-A Pro board and I said I wanted an NVMe SSD and I’m pretty sure my board is a Gen4 and I initially wanted to get a Crucial P3 Plus because of the price for terabyte it’s like 120 or 130

i'm playing elden ring
And then you said oh there’s a much better drive for about the same price or less or I don’t know
after 300 hours going to ds3
Ez way to stop them from calling backup
They don't even call, they just disappear for like 30 seconds
☠️

Maybe the one you crashed was actually the leader and the rest of the police ai have no idea what to do
Alr give me a moment
Time to play destiny:mobile edition
So anyone have any thoughts on 5700x3d with 6900 XT combo?
3700X wasnt quite cutting it so I figure the 5700x3d will help
great cpu with great gpu? whats so bad abt it?
solid
nothing, but I am hoping the 5700x3d lets my 6900 XT do a bit more work than the 3700x
Yikes
🤔 I wonder if we could get a ai computer builder in a channel to help build by suggesting parts to build
Turns out our attic had more secrets than ghosts this Halloween 👻🎃
#TeaserTuesday
Beamng adding even older cars to the game
A realtive of mine asked how much to build a computer
And I was like it depends 
Should have said one fitty

Dont srsly dont
I would say 1k? Maybe small form factor since they font have a lot of room in that house
But I don't keep up to date on tech and pricing so I can't give out a price
Do I get DDR5 9000cl42
Scrape techie messages and make a neweggtechie AI 🤯
latest attempt at a hypercar engine in Automation. A V6 squeezed to the limits.
the specific output on that it is kinda nuts
are you serious
well, i'm thankful its at least on PC but $50 for a 14 year old game is pretty bad
Current mood
Subwoofer comes in today @pliant berry
oh hey
gmod fixed half life 2 in gmod
yea
and they did literally no enhancements to OG
except maybe widescreen and higher framerates
i can probably get an Xbox 360 and a used copy of the game for around $50
and then some
possible
should have added more for $50
good riddance

What if we just
thats wild
oh ya that's way better for sure. So BIOS overrides any Windows Power Profiles you set?
tbh I've never noticed that using P12s & I've used many lol
What you come up with
In terms of good ssd for good price
I'm happy with the Acer Predator NVMe
Solidigm are relatively inexpensive & made by SK Hynix
there are probably better options tho
I have NEVER heard of that SSD in my life
something like this. The P41 is cheaper iirc https://www.amazon.com/SolidigmTM-Internal-7000MB-6500MB-SSDPFKKW020X7X1/dp/B0BJGGL1SQ?
SK hynix Inc. (Korean: 에스케이하이닉스 주식회사) is a South Korean supplier of dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) chips and flash memory chips. SK Hynix is one of the world's largest semiconductor vendors.

afik it's just Acer's sticker on there lol
My 3 options for SSD is Crucial, Western Digital, and Samsung
I mean any SSD will work with my board but I want this mf to last me for a while
They are the brands that I trust
I haven't had any issues with my WD SN850 or SN770
But the Acer I NEVER heard of it
Well what do you do with your system
Do you game on it or what
tbh I've never used Crucial
or Samsung
Samsung was considered really good except for that firmware update they had to do cuz NVMes were dying
game mostly ya
the only NVMes I've had fail are a 1tb TeamGroup MP33 & a 1tb Sabrent Rocket 4
oddly both died the same way with plenty of drive life remaining: "Drive Available Spare" got down to 0%
this is the hwinfo screenshot for the Sabrent Rocket. 100% drive life remaining...? I still dunno wth happened lmao
My 1tb mp34 failed way too early. That's the only SSD that died
Worse when it's a boot drive with little backup
ya MP33 used to be like the go-to cuz it was cheap & fast but starting to regret recommending those
then again, I have a 500gb that's 100% fine & my dad's computer has a 1TB that's totally fine too
btw anyone know how to like extract weapons textures from a game? does Blender do that?
heckkkk
I use an SN850 that came with a heatsink
Bruh
was kinda sketched out removing that heatsink with a razor blade but all's well that ends well right?
my Fallout4 drive lol
Too much mods
sucks I've been such a cheap ass over the years with storage instead of getting 4tb or at least 2tb all the time
hecked
I jumped the gun when nvmes were cheap
damn this was the first NVMe I got & it sure has taken a beating
23,837 is a lot of power cycles
Hello all. Ive been dealing with an issue on my pc. After I installed the newest windows update my pc will randomly cut off and back on. Any suggestions?
as soon as you get to the desktop or before windows starts?
Hm
A little bit after windows starts
Id say I sign in run the microsoft web browser for like 3 minutes and it shuts down
had to take my pc outside and use the air hose on it
Thats what you did to solve it?
Yea I need to invest in one of those too lol
@tiny vale how’s your thermal pasting?
Pmy laptop has the normal windows profiles, but in order to use the Samsung ones that are built in which optimize windows render settings, clock speeds, memory management, panel refresh/display energy saver, and more, I need to have my power profile set to "SAMSUNG Profile" which is dynamic
If I go to battery saver, balanced, or high performance, I get errors in the Samsung things saying all of Samsung's battery saver functions are turned off
downlaod hwinfo & check thermals. @sinful blade has a good point.
just search for hwinfo on google (it's nothing sketchy, I think even NASA uses it lol) https://www.hwinfo.com/download/
probably better than Windows One-Size-Fits-All power profiles anyway
if thermals aren't the issue, have you changed anything else? Also which CPU & motherboard?
Going to be honest im not smart with this stuff but ill check in a few
Ok thank you
ones near me just tell you to wear a mask if you feel sick
you know... the sane thing to do
nah
you shouldnt go to the hospital
hospitals are for healthy people only
frfr
Everything is good now, I have a Samsung Galaxy book pro 3 360, and it has a 1360p. The battery profiles are working better now. Battery saver saves almost as much power as my power limit did, but isn't quite as slow, and now I can actually control and toggle things lol
My laptop feels way better now
I bought it for the display, and man, does it display lol
the display on this laptop kicks ass
3.2k 120hz 600 nit AMOLED with insane color gamut

it was the number one deciding factor in me buying it, honestly. Add on the extremely light and thin design, the pen support, the fantastic track pad, the good battery life, and I had a package I really wanted
my best friend who is a professional music producer bought one as well. Haven't swapped to it yet, but its CPU runs laps around their 10th gen i7 in their 7.8 pound Alienware thermonuclear reactor of a "laptop"
is there any way to disable these? Its like yes Windows I know what it is happening, just shut up.
I wish lmao
You know what I wish was a thing? Battery saver while plugged in
because if I am plugged into a battery pack, that doesn't mean I want my laptop to burn through all of its power for no reason
I also wish there was a way to make discord use less CPU/power
I would rather have a CPU that runs and doesn't crash all the time 😅
this 1360p is honestly plenty
I wish I could undervolt it to save more power, but of course its locked down
If anybody knows how I could eek more efficiency out of my 1360p, I would love to know. If there is some way to force it to undervolt, I would love that
whyyy discord 😭
When I want my laptop to actually last a decent amount of time I usually close out of discord
very power hungry even when window is closed
Drugs
probably from all the tracking it does
Diag*
144fps flatline
i kinda want to bring in my pc for an OS wipe and a rebuild to microcenter. my ass doesnt have the time to rebuild my pc. i want to go AMD and i want a new ssd and OS copy
rdr1>rdr2
🤔
story is goooood
question, would it be odd to slowly buy parts for a rebuild of a pc? i cant justify 1000+ right now but i can justify 300-400 every month or two until ive got the parts
id build a gpuless pc, or upgrade an existing pc then
i wouldnt buy parts for them to sit until you can builkd
well, i want a nice mobo, cpu and ram. this is an upgrade, but i want ddr5 and thus i need a new mobo
7500f, if your cooler works reuse it otherwise cheap tower cooler, b650 eagle ax, and g.skill 6000cl32
if i went to amd id need to reinstall my OS
if you change mobo you need to reinstall os anyways
its the same exact thing
no?
amd to intel is fine
going from x86 to arm is not fine
amd and intel both make x86
I just use it so much, I wish it was more energy efficient cause like, its my number one most used thing across all my devices by a landslide
and the only things youd need to reinstall would be chipset + LAN drivers
I am not even sure why it uses so much to run, like... its a text based application
truly a electron moment
discord devs cant do their job and actually make sure the code runs well so it leads to ram leaks and a lot of unoptimized bs
Streaming my whole PC through p2p in tightVNC at near lossless quality uses considerably less power than having discord in the background, which is wild
if else
if else
if else
Yeah, all they do is add features nobody wanted and looking over the problems that have been around for years
like sound breaking on inter-continental streams
I have had that for years
or copy pasting images not working
it took them like 5 years to fix the bug where copy pastes would duplicate, but that is fixed now
https://youtu.be/mI-CU2VTVic that is such a smooth fix

Q: how old are you /...
change the music slightly so the audience is on the right beats
One reason: JavaScript uses a full blown VM to do what it does... and that is just one of many components of the browser engine
There is plenty of HTML manipulation with the JavaScript going on too
boooo
any chance the web version would be lighter?
That entirely depends on your browser of choice
but it will generally be about the same
it is pretty much the same crappy JS code running under the hood either way
78% GPU usage on a game with graphics this old is pretty bad
then again, could be attributed to the engine. it's more similar to GTAIV than GTAV, and GTAIV's port is pretty messy
could also explain abnormally high system requirements for a 14 year old game
i have a 144 hz at home for val/cs and i went to my friend's college esport lounge to try out the 240hz and i can feel the difference, now i wonder if there's a difference between 240 and 360 since i am considering buying a monitor for 240 but for $100 more there's also a 360 hz option
For most people no, imo a 240hz mini led or oled would be the next step up
between 240 and 360 id be a bit a smaller of a difference than 144 and 240. if you can find a 360hz at a closer price point then why not but otherwise just save the money unless you have a store you can go to to test a 360hz monitor
Also, do you play competitively/for money?
This is great value wise, but if you are probably isn't what you're looking for

i play competitively but not for money, but seems like 360 is just a small difference like ppl said

"samsung is also in the mix"
Lmfao
Hell no
Source is MLID
Lmfao
Using a YouTuber as a source is as low as it gets for an article
they aint gonna let a company like samsung buy intel
thats not possible
as for apple, why they want intel?
also yeah
makes no sense
that's true
intel is an important piece of technology company for the us
no way they're gonna let a korean company buy it
do people forget that AMD was dangerously near bankruptcy?
why they acting like intel gonna go poof?

AMD good Intel bad
Scientifically provable
Big fax fr
amd, intel, nvidia
three main faces of us technology
with texas instruments being a bit lesser
yeup
Isn't MLID like notorious for crappy "leaks"
Guys guys guys, I think Nvidia will buy Intel. My source: Me
I also have info from an anonymous source that Walmart is also interested in going into tech by buying Intel
Costco is interesting in buying intel too
buy intel cpu chips in bulk at costco

After the fixes best case scenario will be it just catching upto the 14900k,7800x3d

until another security vuln is found that reduces performance again
BO6 stuns are too strong
Man I can't even hit 180 fps in this game without turning all the settings to low 🫠
Time for a new GPU
5080 here I come
Gm all
She's hiding the chopsticks somewhere lol
What do you have now?
4070 Super
It's not too bad but I'm not hitting the locked 180 fps like I use to in MW3
Swear if the 5080 is gonna be like $1600 though
Even on low? Strange. Could be game being unoptimized/problem with game on your PC
Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the former
I really think it's just unoptimization but still
My friends with their 4080 Supers also barely reach 180 fps at times
goddamn
It's also weird but when switching to DLSS, the upscaling setting doesn't save. Super annoying because it switches back to FidelityFX CAS
So that's possibly the problem (also probably just unoptimization in that case)
Hi weggers
anyw the game is still good upon release
I don’t play Call of Duty so I wouldn’t really know much
I did, however, use DLSS the first time a few days ago and it works like a dream
Does it work well in BO6? Wonder if it’s different for a game with more things going on
idk bruh
It won't stay selected 💀
switches back to FidelityFX CAS every time I select it
oh I thought you meant after a while it’d switch back automatically
never mind then
Nah switches back every time
well that sucks
I mean at least it's otherwise playable
ngl I watch this guy Jackfrags on YouTube who uses a 4090 and he's only getting around 200 fps while the firing range (not that demanding of an area, high settings)
I’ve heard of him
Haven’t seen any of the game though, but since it’s call of duty I don’t imagine the graphics should be anything really groundbreaking
this guy is drop shipping
what?
Have you seen it yet
what are you talking about
The pope revealed the religion's first mascot
nah what are you talking about lol
An anime character
no way
religion has a mascot now?
It's real
it only took them hundreds of years

Fat32

is fat32 better than ntfs?
why isnt ext4 on here?
that's for linux
Good thing Windows doesn’t make it a pain in the ass to format large drives as FAT32 anymore
Of course, more things use exFAT nowadays but some of the stuff I use recommend FAT32 over it so it’s a good thing they removed the drive size limit for FAT32
but we DONT talk about fat12
For the highest model..maybe
and exfat for like flash drives

Alright mfs
I need your opinion
What is better;
Turning your computer off every night, or leaving it on, only restarting for updates?
I personally turn it off every night
I’m glad I am around not-weird people
Only real case for leaving it on is probably servers, and MAYBE if you run some stupid platform where turning it on or off takes like 10 minutes every timeű
like Threadripper with OC memory stuff
(But like why)

Wife is selling her old iPhone 11 Pro Max for $175(below market) since it has a diminished battery.
This dude decides to come out of nowhere and offer $120. Who in their right mind
A phone reseller no-less
There is a market for older iphones now. More and more people are less willing to spend the premium on flagship
significant rt perf huh?
ill believe it when i see it
Joy, focus on two features I couldn't care less about 
lmfao
i hope the raster is buffed
like imagine if the 8800xt was 7900xtx level for $500
crazy pipe dream
i know
They killed high end and flagship for ray tracing 
or buy old intel cpus on sale
fr...
so its not RDNA 3.5
i guess 3.5 was for apus???
oh well amd gpus won't wow people in 2025, however will battlemage do something?
Yeah, I’ve seen
I’ll grab a 14 pro in a year or so
My phone has mega issues so a new one will be needed
As much as I want a pc, I will need a phone more.
At this point I'll be impressed if Intel manages to put out Battlemage period 
nooo intel good
Intel Good 
About half way down from the antitrust court win and 200 series launch stock bump,
Unironically might be a good time to buy Intel stock
They're bound to bounce back sooner or later
It's an absolute cycle
Also
Why does it feel wrong to pair an Intel CPU with an AMD GPU?
Like it's just that kind of OCD thing where it just feels gross
I mean yeah, it do be price to perf meta rn
But I still couldn't get myself to daily something like that
@rancid juniper @mortal grail am I going insane or something?
Excuse me
Tag me and then tell me the hardware I daily is gross
Smh

It's a very valid choice
I just personally can't do it
Like I think it's a weird OCD-adjacent thing
It just feels wrong
Is it though? Doesn't 7600 beat the 13600 for gaming?
It's a price to perf thing
Intel's so much cheaper right now that you get more FPS/Cinebench score per dollar spent
13600K will tie or often beat in a number of scenarios
That's the worst part
It's not even any logical reasoning
It's just a gut feels thing
These are both $200 though, plus doesn't the 13600 need a non stock cooler?
Your gut is rude

Ya
But here's the amusing thing, you offset that by board cost
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veBDjheatX0
I guess this is the 7600x, but it seems to top the 13600k

AMD Ryzen 5 7600...
The cost between the two are very similar rn
Intel CPU+AMD GPU is meta
AMD CPU+Intel GPU is vile though
only gross when you do stuff like a 4090 with a Pentium 4
That's a different affront to God
I'm talking about Intel CPU with an AMD GPU
I have to make lists to explain this
Like a 13600 with a 7900 GRE
I did this for years until Ryzen showed up
Is it just motherboard cost difference?
Alright then I'm just insane
That's also fine, it was bound to happen eventually
IIRC it's a combination of gaming performance and both CPU and platform costs
Cuz AM5 is still really expensive pound for pound
Here
Part List - Intel Core i5-13600K
Part List - AMD Ryzen 5 7600
Notice how yes, there's a cooler on the AMD processor
The 7600 (or the 7500F) is the lowest end AM5 chip
So you HAVE TO buy at least a 200 dollar CPU to get into AM5 whatsoever
But what you gain for $2 is a small performance drop in games in exchange for way more multicore
If you go stock cooler, it's loud, it works, it's valid
But the intel chip can also overclock in this config
The PG allows it
Cherry picking that $130 mini itx board...?
It's justifiable in many scenarios
Platform entry cost is just too high with AM5
And that only got worse with the 800 series chipsets because they're even more expensive than the 600 series ones
7500f wants to talk
Wym cherry pick
TLDR
AM5 is just too damn expensive to get into for people who can't splurge
I always pick the lightning for AM5 rn cos nothing is as good for less
Wym cherry pick
That's not worldwide available IIRC
It's $130
You can buy it anywhere
Just get it shipped internationally
part of why I am staying on AM4 for now
Aliexpress
@worn wave this is the only cheaper pick and it won't handle upgrades like the lightning or pg riptide will
Both crap vrm
Vetoed
My point is that the 7600 is worldwide available and sold in basically every store
Does that matter for a 65W cpu tho?
A series chipset is kinda yuck
And it's not like the 7500F is much cheaper
It does in the case that in future you'd intend to upgrade later
Not to mention the intel board has more than enough vrm for like 2 13900k's
It matters quite a bit in fact
It will handle 65w
And exactly 65w
You don't get to PBO, you don't get to let it stretch
If this was the case for cherry picking amd I could do the same on the intel side and push the point home further
It's the absolute bare minimum to run low end
Dollar for dollar, AM5 mobos are worse in many ways
Ok, good to know
Not to mention you can get Z690/B660 boards if you want to get the same perf for less
AM5 is just too damn expensive to get into
And that comes from the unfortunate owner of a VERY low-end AM5 board
Vastly forgotten point of AM5. Unless you spend top dollar you lose so many features that weigh nothing into the normie but everything to a power user
Like so low end it's actively trying to die on me every time I start my PC
Like the fact that B650 across the board has x1 bandwidth pcie slots
It's an actual nightmare
You can get multiple slot atx boards and every single slot is x1 @4.0
AM5 has honestly been a disappointing experience for me
Especially as a first experience on a proper desktop PC
I bought into the hype and paid for it with my sanity
I think this isn't quite right either tho tbh
Now yes, I am probably the outlier here
I'll gladly trade my 5600x and a520 board and get that 7600x off your hands :)
AM5 is justifiable, but to really say one or the other is truly better rn given the price competition is a bit off base
Fair enough
The 13600K will trade blows with a 7600X, and if you know how to use either or, you can get a real advantage out of either
Might just be that I've had an actually horrid first experience with the platform
Some wins some losses
What's clear between them tho is multicore
The 13600k definitely wins multicore
It's really scarred my opinion on it ngl
You started with arguably AM5's worst motherboard
I don't think you're unjustified lmfao
Yeah that likely doesn't help
But yeah, AM5 could be amazing
It just really, REALLY badly disappointed me
I've worked my butt off for this rig, and it's been absolutely horrid dealing with the mobo
I don't hate AM5, hell it's powerful enough that I can slot almost any GPU in with my 7600X and not feel like I'm doing something stupid
all that amd and intel stuff is trash
new macbook pro starts at $1,600 and comes with 16gb/512gb, and a 120hz screen
even the base macbook air m2 has been bumped up to 16gb ram for just $999
It's just that if you go very low-end with mobo and memory, you're screwed
Hold up you need to pay 1600 bucks to get 16gigs of RAM?
Sucks to be an Apple fanboy kek
(It's a joke, I'm not at all serious)
👨🦯👨🦯👨🦯
Yeah I went overboard on the min-maxing with my GPU (Not really)
But that was the only way to fit that 6700 XT into my then very tight budget
I will fully admit to having made mistakes with this PC that I have rn
Lmao
My next rig is probably gonna be an ITX 13700K
Cuz while ATX is cool
It takes up so much space on my tiny desk it's actually painful
oof
Yep
Just checked
25% more expensive than the 14700K
Which is like 2% more expensive than the 13700K
Actually idiotic pricing
@elfin mural Error Lake coming out in full swing
Or was it Theo that was snorting the hopium?
it was theo
Can't distinguish between you red named guys anymore
You mean Intel Error Lake, right? :3
i honestly am not bothered with the latest cpus rn
too busy enjoying games in my laptop
At least there was some improvement
Error Lake is significantly more descriptive tho
Man discord Mobile notifs so garbage, I got this an hour later
🗿
Blergh
i have that pairing right now and dont feel grossed out
it got the performance i need
Does it feel wrong to pair an Intel cpu with an nvidia gpu?
Not really
i thought that was the defacto pairing
It's probably to do with how AMD and Intel are fighting in both fields now (technically)
Then why would amd/intel feel wrong
lol
Also the colors clash
Red and blue not so good together
It's a very minor nitpick on my part
Wrong
I don't hate anyone for doing it
But it is your opinion so I won't press further
Hey I'm not gonna get into a shouting match over it
I'm only saying I'd personally not do it
But I know it's a very valid strategy
Red and blue are matches made in heaven 
my laptop has horrible rgb so i just set it to white
Hell I recommended such a rig to someone like 5 days ago
And they seemed to like it
anything but white looks so dim
Is the 4080s really that bad with price to perf?
unsure
not sure either
It kinda feels exactly on the edge of where Nvidia software and RT advantage kinda still barely makes it maybe worth it
But then raster is also there, but 4080S is also very good at raster
Hungary is dum
lol
Cheapest 7900 XTX is 415k HUF
Cheapest 4080S is ~475k HUF
That's right on the edge of Nvidia software and RT value vs AMD raster speed value
That being said
If I'm spending over 300k HUF on a GPU
I'm probably gonna want to turn on RT
(that's about 900 USD converted, but our VAT is 27% so that skews pricing)
dayum
See my point?
That's right around the margin where I'd probably actually want a decent RT experience
And nVidia is still not there yet
4070 Ti Super is ~355k HUF
And it can do 60FPS in 1440p RT (sometimes even without upscaling), so it's not completely stupid, but also not exactly ideal yet
@rancid juniper I mean am I unreasonable with the expectations here?
honestly id save
Am I asking too much with a GPU that can do 1440p 60FPS RT for that price range?
It's ALMOST there already
RT is still somewhat of a gimmick here, and big games we have now got poor performance on most cards
RTX 50 series may change that
Ye that's fair
I'm merely making the point that is my thought process on the matter
300k HUF is about the price point where my mental limit for hardware is
my hard cap is around $500 (basically my 7800xt)
Fun fact a 7800 XT is my entire monthly paycheck
Which is 720 bucks (again, converted)
And again, because very high VAT
Yeah life is rough here

Discord's age requirement is 13 so idk why the filter here is already so strict.
Edit: and no, I'm not referring to slurs or sexually explicit terms. The fact I can't say the version of poop that starts with s and ends with t is crazy
trolls gonna troll
more like fail troll
I was too late
Cuz this server is a semi-professional business environment. Most businesses want to maintain some professionalism when it comes to customer interactions. Think about the amt of customer service employees that are allowed to say said word in front of a customer, it isnt that high.
I kinda get that but basically nobody here is a newegg employee
nor is any official help given here
It's an official server so it's all about the corporate image
Just follow the house rules.. arguing will sent to gulag
1v1 mods
We maintaining a good image here .. even tho its just community
It means stuff here might reflect on the company itself xD
Even though they abandoned the server up until three weeks ago lol
Real
Look @digital thunder is always open if you guys have a question xD
They should give some of the inactive mods some rest and give more active server members those roles instead
valid
Oh I don't mean the mods
XD
I like most of the mods here
So do I
Newegg didn't give a crap about this server for like two years
All they cared about was the ability to send people customer support couldn't handle to us
XD
Now naht is putting energy into the server again but being abandoned for so long kind of killed it
I want more than naht to be active
Like it feels like it’s just the main 20~ of us and the occasional random lmao
XD chill weather it dies or not . Its here to stay
XD
I dont really want to be an unpaid mod
I do
Techie is alr more than enough for me, I wasn't even expecting that much
It’s enjoyable
Soon I’ll be Newegg ceo and I’ll personally give you $4 to be mod Bacca
4 dollar thats bellow the minimum wage
being techie back in the day made me feel like I had to help everyone who needed it and I wasn't enjoying it to much lol
I'll mod for that
Must treasure your freedom
well life got in the way and I didn't get on discord for like 2 years lol
Touch grass.. its fine to take a break xD too much discord will just straighten the curves of our brains hahha
now in jan I'ma be a daddy so I will be on less again
Yeah thats good spend more time with fam
Dont be like us xD been here 5-6+ years.. fly high.
Idm it, I don't really feel like I have as much knowledge as the other techies though
I do think I'm the youngest but I definitely defer to them all in most areas
And congrats!
I'm an uncle of a 1 and 2 yo and never thought I'd love kids as much as I love them
That was my problem. I can help you build a PC and do some light troubleshooting but there were so many issues I felt I couldn't competently handle and I felt obligated to try since no one else was helping lol. That's the part that made it less than enjoyable. Troubleshooting boot issues or helping walk people through building was a ton of fun, but time consuming.
Thanks. And that's how I felt when my nephew was born, although I don't get to see him much. But it really made me want a child of my own and now we are having a baby girl 🙂
Deym what age you gonna build her a gaming pc?
Ive seen new parents nowdays just giving their child tablet at early age so they just shut up xD and be occupied for hours and hours.. then the problem starts when u take the tablet 🤣 they start to curse u
Yeah ipad rot the brain of kids at early age
Unless its those tablet that only do certain task ...math and stuff
I think my expertise definitely lies within aesthetic assistance.
I have a flair for design.
Although I can do light diagnostics, overclocking, command work, and troubleshooting on the software side.
Hardware I’m still a bit dense on ram timing, PSUs, and motherboards that are x50.
I honestly don't know what I'm gonna do yet. It really depends on the child. I was a terror as a child so I'm hoping to avoid that 🤣
Haha some kids also has access to alexa.. they use it to do their homework.. they whisper...
Yeah its hard... You be strict they hate you
You be soft they get big head...
I've done light OC stuff but mostly just recited what others have said since I wasn't well-versed lol. I was always not the best at asthetics but I did know the current good value hardware at the time, and rn that's not so much the case anymore cause I haven't kept up with it at all lol. But I mostly helped people who already bought their PC parts and were trying to build it or troubleshoot why it wouldn't boot
Oh I'm gonna be the fun parent and my wife gonna be the strict one. I'ma be the one who sneaks them super sugary coffee right before I leave so my wife can deal with the aftermath 
im jk im not gonna do that lol
Haha somebody gonna sleep on the couch i guess
probably 😂
Just like my discord notifs... Again..
Alright do I save an hour or $5
Save an hour
no save 5 dolla
Money
wait what is the scenario
Add an extra 5 and things get serious
compooper gets it

Yall have any clue why my fan leds dont work? They light up a white color and dont change colors when i press my led button on my case (the fans were included with it)
Its more expensive to travel during rush hour so when I get off ai can either spend extra 5usd to get home faster or wait it out until regular price
This guy got LED fans and not RGB fans 💀
Likely going to be wherever the fans are plugged in
are the fans and the button attached to an rgb controller
sorta
$5
this guy plugged his fans into the motherboard and expected to use the case button 💀
ummm i dont remember
they used to work fine
so taking tolls? It depends on if it's standstill traffic or not. If traffic will be moving, I'd save the 5 dollars. If it's to avoid standstill traffic, I'd spend the 5 dollars
did you change something recently
Used to change colors by pressing the button and that was good enough for me but they stopped working suddenly
My parents always avoided tolls the best they can
Unless it's the only route to the destination
No I haven't been inside my pc except to remove dust
that's kinda my point lol. I can deal with an hour extra as long as I feel like I'm making progress, but 5 dollars each way, that adds up quickly over time
Yep
man when going into houston it cost me $10 to save 20 min one way 😂 I've done it many times though cause that's after a 4 hour drive and the non 20 min way is really bad standstill traffic
I get chewed out by my parents for buying takeout (19 and live in my own apartment by the lake comfortably)
if i was passing tolls
id be killed
is it your own money or money they provide you?
Trains
$10 for 20 mins is goofy
I'd spend 5$ for train
Stupid typo
trains are cool
They helped me moved and helped pay insurance for a while but im independent now
Actually i could save another 3usd by walking to station instead of subway but i might have to run
you don't understand my distaste for houston traffic and standstill traffic 😂
💀
but train
Haha
I live in Nebraska, we don't have toll roads here but when I flew to Texas they were everywhere I swear
train, my favourite band frfr
It looked like a border
5700x3d will arrive tomorrow. Cant wait to see what it brings vs a 3700x
houston traffic is some of the worst traffic I've ever had the pleasure of driving in. and driving in that was like 40% of my job when I lived there. It was hellish
cant be as bad as NYC though
Texas roads is probably worse than California
pockets are one of the biggest things I look for in pants tbh
I live in TX and recently moved to San Antonio and theres no tolls. It makes me so happy. And I can cross the entire city in less than 30 min. And the city still feels really large and fun
if the pockets suck, the pants are useless to me
Hate it when some of my pants have shallow pockets and my phone just bounces right off
I lived in Corpuus Christi for a few years
My parents tried to convince me to move to corpus and I said absolutely not lol
corpus is great, but to many hurricanes
yeah dont blame you on that
Floridians:
Bro I live in ny
NYC is peak hellish traffic
Does it have giga rats?
You drive at the wrong time of day and your 1hr commute turns into a 3-4hr commute
some of my family got together to buy land so we can start a family compound and my mom really wanted to be in corpus. Right after we bought this land instead, corpus got hit with a hurricane 😂
idk, I dont live in the city but from what I hear yes

ok you win
I've never driven newyork but I've heard it's really bad lol
I have seen some of the rats in brooklyn and they are SCARY
Trying to rack my brain together long enough to find where I plugged in my RGB at
mostly in nyc propper
Rad Roach but rats
at least the rats arent radioactive
Damn if fallout 5 took place in NYC imagine how massive they can get
I have been in the city itself, including Manhatten many times... not somewhere I would ever willingly move to.
I will stick to upstate thanks
I would say florida was probably a close second to the worst I've been in. Driving around florida I felt like I was actually gonna die lol
I wonder how they sleep, it's gotta be loud I presume
Alright ima do the good old unplug and plug back in and hope it works
Floridan man + cars = yikes
Im in manhattan rn that’s why i asked the question lol. I wouldn’t mind working for some time but living here nah
You're not lying
people talk about california like it's the worst but honestly california traffic was a breaze
These FL drivers are... Something else...
careful some crazy doesnt throw gators at you
bro florida made me feel like I needed more practice driving and I was already 4 years into having a license 😂 And that everyone in florida needed to have their license revoked
i've driven in a lot of places, but if I ever go back to florida it's only ubers
Doesn't matter how good you are, some bozo driver in FL will surely make your day go bad
I've literally seen people driving the wrong way in the same lane

Some say it takes two to cause an accident... no. A singular reckless driver can FORCE you to crash.
^^^
lmao I had some friends do that (multiple friends, different ocaision) on the highways and it's not even easy to do that in houston. I don't understand how they did it. Like theres ramps that can only go one way, and big medians that you can't cross over, how do you end up on the wrong side of the HIGHWAY
Beware of the Nissan Altima drivers, they are the WORST offenders
funny, because in NYS those are the calm/sane drivers
its the lifted SUVs/Pickups that tend to be crazy
Opposite ends
North and south
You haven't lived until you've driven on a busy NYC road at 5am that is poorly maintained and has had the pavement markings worn down over time
Aw hell no
My father drove a nissan altima for a long while. Can confirm, his driving terrifies me. Now my sister has it. Her driving also scares me.
Fortunately most of these nutjobs seem to leave after tourist season is over
Also, the further south you get the crazier the drivers are in NY
how is traffic at 5am?
I dunno anymore, I am from northern NY but don't even live in the state anymore, I just have personal experiences driving through some of the boroughs to get to Long Island
can confirm
its the influence of the city
The further north you get the chances of seeing a random farmer driving a tractor on the road increases 
I would take that over drunks or other degenerate drivers
A farmer I can respect
I've never been to NY so I can't say it's worse or better, but we got some roads down here where if you drive the speed limit you will catch some air. And theres a city not to far from me that I go to a lot and the roads are so poorly maintained and riddled with potholes idk how anyone keeps their tires for more than a week
Also the further north the more Quebecers 
but traffic isnt bad at all. It's only the roads that are the problem here
most people do 10 to 20 over in some areas here
same, which makes it even more scarier 😂
until it rains, then everyone does like 10 to 20 under
the speed limit is a suggestion in texas that no one listens to
people seem to have no in between
75mph speed limit? If you're not going at least 90, you are the problem
drivers in NY be like that too but not as severe
the catching air place tho the speed limit is 40. You gotta go 30 or less to not catch air
I once saw someone stop their car in the middle of traffic, get out, and start yelling at the person behind them...
Dunno if it's any better in northern parts of FL
Idiot behavior fr Lmao
On today's episode of "How are printers still this bad?"
I stood up after starting a print job with my phone and the printer immediately lost connection
I was in the same room.
Theres no shortage of idiot behavior on the roads... probably the case across the whole country tbh
Printers just like trouble
