[mortal grail]

One with the heatsinks around the socket?

[thorn quartz]

yep

[mortal grail]

Should be ok

I'd do 13600KF max tho

[thorn quartz]

this one but m atx

[mortal grail]

12700KF can have some weird power behaviour

The newer gen equivalent 13600K/F will be better performing and basically max out the socket for you

So better pick imo

[thorn quartz]

okay okay ty

any thoughts on 15th gen?

[mortal grail]

Complete pass

No value benefit swapping to it whatsoever

Even the lower power is negated by the fact the older gen is just so stupid cheap

[sweet phoenix]

So I had a very weird thought last night

Couldn't you make a program or AI to run a small scale business, like selling shirts?

Because you can have ai create images or phrases, have it order said shirts from whatever retailer online and have a storefront it updates/manages, ofc you'd have to do the physical aspect

[proud jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/itachi-naruto-dead-anime-rain-gif-15934339

[tranquil pebble]

In theory yes. In practice I don't think it would be reliable enough to do it.

[sweet phoenix]

Makes sense

[tranquil pebble]

Especially if ANY user input made its way into the prompts

[sweet phoenix]

Nothing I'm looking to try, just sounded like a fun idea

[sweet phoenix]

Follow up question

Again nothing id even consider throwing money at

Couldn't AI day trade?

Potentially better than people could, with how fast they can consume new information

[tranquil pebble]

potentially but you'd be increasing risk

again, AI sometimes derps out. Do you really want that trading for you?

[sweet phoenix]

Oh yeah 100%, this is just hypothetical

Im too broke to throw money at things like day trading lmao

[tranquil pebble]

day trading is just calculated gambling basically

[rancid juniper]

rumor is true, hope they decline tho

[devout forum]

Kadokawa is the dev of KC right?

[devout forum]

I mean KC going super mainstream (maybe like a PS5 exclusive game) would be kinda cool

Or Youju Senki

Even if it's really messed up in some parts

[rancid juniper]

for gamedevelopment its not a problem but its the fact that they own many mediums such as anime, light novels, and manga

[devout forum]

Fun fact there was a PS Vita KC game

[rancid juniper]

Sony acquiring it will make them a bigger monopoly here

[devout forum]

Sadly the Vita just died in a whimper of agony

[sinful blade]

Or how about not giving any exclusives

[devout forum]

Hold on
The Vita had an OLED SCREEN IN 2011????

How had I never known that???

Probably because I was like 10 years old and poor so I never actually seen a working PS Vita in person

[rancid juniper]

[nocturne flicker]

Who thought this kind of testing was okay. Ah yes, I know how to test a game's performance, add multiple variables that effect game performance, one of which is undisclosed, and see what happens

Is there at least standardized tests somewhere on the article that is from?

[rancid juniper]

lol the fact the got a laptop on

[nocturne flicker]

One of those tests is a 9900x with a 5700xt

Who is pairing a top tier cpu with a 5700xt

[rancid juniper]

i guess they are showing multiple different configs because lets be real, every pc is wildly different

[rancid juniper]

💀

[lone mango]

Yeah when the framerate is that low I do not think the cpu matters

[rancid juniper]

^^^

[lone mango]

Certified slavclunk

[rancid juniper]

105fps on a 4080super

14700k can handle that card fine

[lone mango]

Dips to 60

[rancid juniper]

game is just that taxing on graphics cards

[lone mango]

On low

[rancid juniper]

☠️

[lone mango]

Man

This makes me love polyphony digital

Is console gaming coming back?

[nocturne flicker]

Also, I like how they only do the A770 test on the 1080p low graph and quietly remove it from the others

[rancid juniper]

bruh

[nocturne flicker]

They remove it so they can add the laptop

[rancid juniper]

they did try

https://youtu.be/BRCLRAJkqjg?si=3rnu-Ku4ziiriuY5

[nocturne flicker]

They didn't have any results for the A770 outside of the 1 1080p low result, not just none above 1440p low

Wait, they had a 1440p low result

So nothing else in 1080p and the one 1440p result

[lone mango]

My man can’t get over the fact that it is slavclunk and this is how it always was

These devs are saving me a lot of money ima be honest

[onyx merlin]

should I get samsung SSD or western digital SSD ?

[deep parcel]

4 fps high

[lone mango]

Imagine getting a new high end gpu only to have it go below 60 fps

[lone mango]

Which is cheaper

I think the sn580 is good. Its not very expensive and its perf is pretty good

I actually have the sn570 and have no problems with it at all

I also have a wd blue sata ssd and it never slows down

[deep parcel]

progress update, it still goin

[lone mango]

I can do large file transfers and nothing

WDs hmb seems to be pretty good

[onyx merlin]

@ @lone mango will get western digital fits budget more

[lone mango]

[lone mango]

[proud jackal]

Anyone want to trade their 9800X3D for my CPU?

I mean my 9800X3D

[devout forum]

Whaddya got?

[cedar compass]

my 13600k survived lol

will I get at least 90fps at dual qhd max settings ?

with 4080

[pseudo patrol]

Is the Corsair SF1000i psu plat good?

I heard platinum psu’s have slightly more efficient power usage at 100%

than gold

and runs cooler

[worthy meteor]

SF1000L? It's good, the efficiency difference is VERY slight, running cooler or not depends on the implementation

[rancid juniper]

https://videocardz.com/newz/qualcomm-teases-snapdragon-x-processors-for-600-laptops-possibly-a-6-core-variant

oh? they still in the game

[upper hawk]

Hopefully the supposed 6 core models are fanless

[rancid juniper]

knowing by how little power they take that may be likely

heh fanless laptops

dang... shirrako too?

[upper hawk]

steam seems to be the opposite

[deep parcel]

I think reviewers are being harsh on it

from what ive seen it looks good so far

[rancid juniper]

well i dont play the game so all my takes are already out

if the bugs/perf issues are the problem it can be ironed out hopefully by the next patch

🗿🗿🗿

[surreal kernel]

hi guys

I don't wana be a pain but can someone help me out with a case and a psu?

please

https://gjirafa50.al/

[lone mango]

What’s the rest of the buld like

[surreal kernel]

a rx 6600 a ryzen 5 5600 16 gigs of ram

but thing is

[lone mango]

Yoo thats what I got rn

[surreal kernel]

pc fell from desk

and now it ain't working

so I suggest it's psu

related

[lone mango]

Does it turn on at all

[surreal kernel]

nop

I've reseated everything

[lone mango]

Do you have a motherboard that has some kind of lights on it to show power is flowing

[surreal kernel]

yes my old one

but who is swapping them

😭😭

I don't have any isopropyl alcohol to clean my cpu

[lone mango]

Thats ok just see if power flows

[surreal kernel]

is it fine with removing my motherboard with the cooler onto?

intop

ontop

[lone mango]

To rule out the psu

[surreal kernel]

everything's on sale rn

[lone mango]

Oh I forgot. Do you have a psu tester?

[surreal kernel]

so I guess if its any different part I'm good on buying another one

[lone mango]

You can test them, I completely forgot about this

[surreal kernel]

nah

I'm so paranoid

what if I broke my cpu when I reseated it

also I dropped my keyboard too

LOL

[proud jackal]

Should I

[surreal kernel]

I'd this good

[surreal kernel]

can you help me first before spending 1.3k

[lone mango]

You can use a paper clip to test it

[surreal kernel]

how

look its an old Chinese psu

it'll prolly explode

[sinful blade]

Theo

No

[lone mango]

You bend it to make a u shape and short two pins on it. Or I guess you can get that other board you said has a power indicator and just plug the 24 pin into it

[surreal kernel]

should I remove my current board

or js

[lone mango]

Unplug the psu cables and plug the 24 pin into that other board

[surreal kernel]

this looks like a nice vase

case

I'm stuck between these 2

[surreal kernel]

ik but should I remove my current board from the case or js test it like that

everything's on sale rn so we good

[proud jackal]

But

[lone mango]

Keep it in the case it doesn’t matter. Unplug all the connections and plug the 24 pin into that motherboard that has those power indicators on it

[lone mango]

Motherboard is more expensive than the cpu lmaoo

And its asus so its probably gonna fry it

[surreal kernel]

ima strip everything down

I need a thermal paste too

ffs

and a cleaning kit

[lone mango]

Literally no need to

You’re bugging out rn lol

Just test one thing at a time

Just because something is on sale doesn’t mean you actually need to buy it. See if the psu can supply power to that board and go from there

[surreal kernel]

if it doesn't does that mean that the psu is automatically at fault

ah man could b everything

[lone mango]

Yeah

Because that is the only variable

[lone mango]

Have you looked at the computer inside

[surreal kernel]

I'm scared to hold it in the air and tirn it on

what if I short something

[surreal kernel]

yeah I've reseated everysingle thing

[lone mango]

Oh thats right you did say that

[surreal kernel]

ram psu cables gpu cpu

[lone mango]

Holding the board wont hurt anything. Plug the power cables into it and see if those power indicators turn on

Or just have it on the floor or a desk or something like that

A box maybe

[surreal kernel]

also the 24 pin is a pain to remove

[lone mango]

Yeah depends sometimes that thing is stuck lol

[surreal kernel]

leme pull out my old board

[surreal kernel]

it's too short

wait I can remove it from the back

[lone mango]

[sinful blade]

No>:(

[dusk knot]

But 9800x3D!

[surreal kernel]

ion understand

why it don't turn on

[lone mango]

Prob the psu then

[surreal kernel]

I still javebt tried it

this my current build

[dusk knot]

Hmm

[lone mango]

Oh

[surreal kernel]

old mobo yet to be plugged

I wonder if it's the cable?

I've got a similar one laying around

[lone mango]

Still prob test it. I think it is the psu but lets rule it out

[surreal kernel]

yeah ok leem grab it

found it

should I just remove everything?

put em in their boxes and wait for the parts to arrive

this 24 pin bro

[lone mango]

Ye plug that 24 pin into it and see if those power lights come on

[craggy shoal]

Yeah this looks fun (seizure warning)

[dusk knot]

That's you?

[surreal kernel]

ima remove

my current board

24 pin too short

OK so no lights

ima buy the case

and the psu

are these 2 good

[sinful blade]

Until I have a pc, you’re not allowed buying new stuff
That’s the new rule

[tranquil pebble]

9800x3d selling for $670... smh

[tranquil pebble]

I am going to put "raytracing" in the prompt of StableDiffusion and see what it spits out

[surreal kernel]

compooper

help me

please

I know I can always rely on you

[rancid juniper]

whats going on this time?

[surreal kernel]

my pc

fell from my desk

👍

it doesn't work

I'm suggesting it's psu

and now I need some recommendations

for a psu and a case

[rancid juniper]

bruh

how hard did it fall

[surreal kernel]

hmmm

fairly

hard

the front part of the case broke

[pseudo patrol]

what made it fall

[surreal kernel]

I reseated everything

still didn't work

[surreal kernel]

me

accidentally

I got up

I forgot that I had

my headphones on my neck

took my pc with me

[pseudo patrol]

hopefully nothing on the circuit board got chipped or bent

[surreal kernel]

idek

hopefully it ain't my gpu

if its motherboard it's alr

[pseudo patrol]

it could be the psu if it’s not taking power at all

[surreal kernel]

I need a case and a psu but got no idea what to purchase

[rancid juniper]

dang that happened to me a few times

[surreal kernel]

I was waiting for black friday

[rancid juniper]

how do you know if the psu is broken?

[surreal kernel]

and I save like 150

[surreal kernel]

well

plugged in my mouse and it didn't turn on

it usually does

the rgb

when I click it

and I tried another motherboard

no indicators on it

the lights didn't turn on

when I plugged the 24 pin connector

also everysingle part was new on my build expect psu

some old Chinese brand

[rancid juniper]

ok

[surreal kernel]

I doubt it's any of the new parts

[lone mango]

850 is overkill for your system but if it is relatively cheap from a sale then fine by me

[surreal kernel]

its 120

for that

plus I kinda wnaa upgrade in the future

[lone mango]

You could upgrade your gpu and still not have the psu fan come on

[surreal kernel]

wana sawl the gpu out

[lone mango]

Oh ok not bad then

[surreal kernel]

swap

I'm sorry it's 100

bru why are keebs 200

[hoary zodiac]

How

My keeb was like $100

[surreal kernel]

wait razer huntsman v2

[hoary zodiac]

that's why

smh

You could get a better keyboard for a fraction of the price

[surreal kernel]

for 100

[surreal kernel]

its 100

some other ones ranger for 200

It's 160 on amazon

should I get it

60 cheaper

[hoary zodiac]

I mean

Are you sure you want razer?

There are better keyboards for the same price

[surreal kernel]

i need my psu first but coompooper died

[hoary zodiac]

?

[surreal kernel]

the guy

I need help chosing one

and a case

[hoary zodiac]

Wait

I'm confused now

[surreal kernel]

he vanished

what

[hoary zodiac]

What exactly are you trying to do

[surreal kernel]

fix my pc and buy a new keyboard

👍

[hoary zodiac]

right

[lone mango]

Thats a banger fr

[surreal kernel]

idk if I should go for these

[hoary zodiac]

bomb

Do not get that psu

[surreal kernel]

oml

[hoary zodiac]

That is a very old psu and should not be used with modern hardware

[surreal kernel]

can you help me with one

https://gjirafa50.al/

please

this is where I shop

[hoary zodiac]

I can't read albanian

[surreal kernel]

for pc parts

[surreal kernel]

js open it and translate the Web page

[hoary zodiac]

I'm on mobile

[surreal kernel]

or js tell me a psu if you know any

[surreal kernel]

fair

[hoary zodiac]

https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/

Anything on A-B tier

Basically just find the cheapest one that's on A-B

[lone mango]

Brutal I did not know that

[hoary zodiac]

It's from the same era as the S12iii

Really old psu

[surreal kernel]

?

also thjs

[hoary zodiac]

A750GL seems to be A tier

Someone fact check me

Wait no

The A tier is an MPG

This is a MAG

thanks msi

[surreal kernel]

it seems fine idk

so it's bad?

would the coolermqster be a better choice

[hoary zodiac]

absolutely not

[lone mango]

Well it is higher on the tier list

[surreal kernel]

ima go for the msi one

I'm honestly so fed up

with all of this

I just need to get it working again for school

ts always happens to me

also is the case alr?

[hoary zodiac]

Ok

I went digging in their sources

https://elchapuzasinformatico.com/2023/09/msi-mag-a750gl-pcie5-review/#conclusion

Seems fine

Don't get the cooler master one

MSI seems like a better choice

[surreal kernel]

alrighttt

what ab the case?

[hoary zodiac]

Is that the cheapest you could find?

[surreal kernel]

case? no

most decent looking

yeah

also I just dropped my ssd

💯

[hoary zodiac]

mesh front?

You also want airflow in a case

Especially if you're gonna be putting a hot gpu in it

Ok it does have mesh

So it's not an NZXT case

Yeah it'll do

[surreal kernel]

yes it does

also got USB c and allat

[surreal kernel]

meh rx 6600

[hoary zodiac]

Well

If you got a 750w you could upgrade a bit

Who knows maybe you'll find a used 4080 in a couple years

[surreal kernel]

hopefully

[surreal kernel]

I'm thinking about double checking the case but

wait what if I don't get a case and buy a monitor instead d

[hoary zodiac]

What

What is your current setup?

[surreal kernel]

rx 6600 , r5 5600 , 16 gigs of ram , 4k 60hz Samsung monitor

Some rog peripherals

keyboard might b broken

ssd might b broken

I know bad luck always finds me

don't ask

[hoary zodiac]

lol

At least you didn't have to troubleshoot arch linux for the past day

[surreal kernel]

oh!

[worn wave]

ssds are pretty resilient. Doubt dropping it will break it

[gilded kraken]

stalker 2 go brrr

[hoary zodiac]

It's out?

[gilded kraken]

yeee. came out at like 5 am or something

[hoary zodiac]

pog

[gilded kraken]

May the sunflowers bloom

[surreal kernel]

I can't find a damn case

[cedar compass]

Why nobody giving free stalker game on purchase neither intel amd or nvidia

[surreal kernel]

waiitt

same price and it got a screen?

hell yeah

[hoary zodiac]

Smaller case

[surreal kernel]

oh yeah

[surreal kernel]

I'd thud smaller too?

they both read midi

Tower

[dusk knot]

L

[surreal kernel]

why is one cheaper and what's the difference with the lite model wth

[hoary zodiac]

No airflow

[gilded kraken]

Depends on what it comes with, fans, lighting controllers and hubs, aiflow design. Build space

[surreal kernel]

it's mesh isn't it

[gilded kraken]

yis

[surreal kernel]

wth the difference

[gilded kraken]

oooh my O11D Evo XL comes today

hopefully nothing broke

[surreal kernel]

why is this 50 euro cheaper

I cantfind a single review

they got the same volume

bro what

[hoary zodiac]

No fans?

🤷‍♂️

[surreal kernel]

na it comes with fans

I'm on the website

both mid towers too?

I'm so confused

[gilded kraken]

Many cases just come down to fans, build quality, case modularity, size, drive bay space, ect

[surreal kernel]

I can't figure out the difference netween

the lite

and the normal version

because if they the same which it looks like

I kight just go for the cheaper one

[gilded kraken]

I dono google it, probably tells you. Lite most likely has leess features

[surreal kernel]

that's the problem

it doesnt

[gilded kraken]

I dono then, I just buy absurdly giant PC cases

[hoary zodiac]

Enthoo Pro 2 moment

[surreal kernel]

I'm confuzzled

should I place the order rn or wait till tmr morning

[idle nexus]

how much mbps is 84.9MBps... also who came up with these nonsense units

[lone mango]

divide by 8 and you get MBps

[idle nexus]

lol heck it's like half of that

[lone mango]

You can probably change it in settings like you can with steam

[idle nexus]

ah-ha

[lone mango]

[idle nexus]

hecked

[sage sluice]

xbox likes looking like its faster than it is ✨

[idle nexus]

I'm also streaming Thermaltake Live but I blame Microsoft lol

[gilded kraken]

damn my PC is cookin and thats with a slow primary sata drive transfering to my gen 4 nvme at 90 mb/s

I wonder if my downloads will pick up with my new build

[idle nexus]

I did the thing where you transfer over network from a PC that already has the game on Steam the other day

heckin blaaazin

[sage sluice]

my wifi can barely handle 80Mbps 🙏

we love cheap 5g internet

(it feels way worse than 80Mbps)

[lone mango]

Because it is inconsistent

[sage sluice]

yup!

[lone mango]

I used to have 5g internet and it was all over the place

[sage sluice]

🥹

[lone mango]

[idle nexus]

Steam over network is monster mode

lol but wait

[dusk knot]

holy....

[idle nexus]

that's bits

not bytes isn't it

[lone mango]

Thats like 110 meg

[idle nexus]

so it was way less impressive than I thought lmao

dammit I'm changing that setting now too

[surreal kernel]

bro

I've been looking for te past

[lone mango]

[surreal kernel]

30 minutes

why are there ni acrticles

[idle nexus]

ni articles?

like Nickel on periodic table I'm confused

[lone mango]

[idle nexus]

HECK

once stalker finishes, I'll try network transfer again to see lol

[surreal kernel]

what the hell is the difference

[lone mango]

8 bits = 1 byte

just a diff measurement

[surreal kernel]

between these 2 cases bru

[lone mango]

Oh lol

[surreal kernel]

😭😭

[lone mango]

Hold on

[surreal kernel]

no articles

I'm tryna find what's the difference between the Masterbox 600 and 600 lite

[idle nexus]

what are those? lol

oh wait read it wrong

[tacit geode]

Slow

[idle nexus]

yes I have beclowned myself

the host PC has two Ethernet connections. I wonder if I can plug directly to it

[surreal kernel]

cases

from coolermadter

[hoary zodiac]

Ok

Linux just decided to not work on my pc anymore

[idle nexus]

I can't even find reference to a "Lite" on CM or newegg

[surreal kernel]

they do got a website for both of them

the lite one is 50 euros less

why? idk

[hoary zodiac]

At this point I think I'm schizo

[idle nexus]

if I had to guess, it probably doesn't have fans or something simple

[hoary zodiac]

Am I allowed to say that?

[lone mango]

Is this an arch thing

[hoary zodiac]

Yeah

[lone mango]

[hoary zodiac]

I tried to reinstall Hyprland like 5 timea

[idle nexus]

wait

[hoary zodiac]

Didn't work

Switched to KDE plasma

[idle nexus]

you sure it's the lite? not the L?

[hoary zodiac]

Didn't work either

I think it's wayland and nvidia being annoying again

I've been at this for 2 days

https://tenor.com/view/fml-sylvester-cat-annoyed-headbang-gif-7605980029532191439

[lone mango]

So why do yall use arch again

[hoary zodiac]

Oh no

[lone mango]

I forgot

[hoary zodiac]

Arch isn't the problem

[lone mango]

Oh

[hoary zodiac]

It's nvidia and wayland

[lone mango]

Ah yes

Back at it again

[hoary zodiac]

Ok I've turned off the nvidia kernel modules and it still doesn't work

Was hoping it'd default to the igpu

Ok something else is going on here

Linux keeps hanging for god knows why

[surreal kernel]

it does

[surreal kernel]

wym

[lone mango]

Since you are looking at matx cases check this one out
https://gjirafa50.al/search?q=pop+air

[surreal kernel]

my website its .al

this one for kosovo

different stock

[lone mango]

alr rechecking

check now

[surreal kernel]

mehh

the green ruins it

also it's more expensive for what

found this yall

would this be better

[storm narwhal]

Solid case

[surreal kernel]

no rear fan and front io kinda wack

I really need a USB c

port

I think I might go for the coolermaster one

[hoary zodiac]

At this point I think there's something wrong with my bios

[surreal kernel]

ty tho

OK I'm locked in

getting the coolermaster

[idle nexus]

I simp for Thermaltake but worth checking out before you commit imo

[surreal kernel]

oml

singular thermaltake

case her

[idle nexus]

actually while we're on the topic

[hoary zodiac]

Check out phanteks as well

[sweet phoenix]

What's the cooler master case we're comparing? Masterbox 600?

[hoary zodiac]

And fractal design

[lone mango]

Comes with fans and there are different colors

[idle nexus]

I got a Thermaltake S200 which is pretty cheap & what not but my issue is with a 280mm AIO on the front, no GPUs worth a crap fit

[surreal kernel]

this one comes with fans too

the coolermaster

[idle nexus]

I couldn't get a 3060, 1080ti, or a couple others to fit

[surreal kernel]

psu decent

[sweet phoenix]

As long as this is a front mesh it's fine. There might be some good options from tt like ggood said, montech should have some cheap options

[surreal kernel]

act act

leme look at gpus

[idle nexus]

so I'm stuck using a GTX960 Strix rn lol

[surreal kernel]

😭

[lone mango]

Oh fr

[sweet phoenix]

I wouldnt worry too much, case is imo the least important part

[lone mango]

alr

[idle nexus]

ya Montech is on point lately for sure

[surreal kernel]

leme act look at montech

damn they got some

[idle nexus]

Masterbox 600 clearance for GPU is 410mm without a front radiator & 360 with one... let me check that v. this TT case I got

[surreal kernel]

damn

cpus are on a even better deal

[idle nexus]

okay nvm you're probably good

[surreal kernel]

I got a smol rx 6600

[idle nexus]

the TT case is 360mm without a rad & 330mm with a rad

so you got an extra like 50mm ez

it sucks cuz if I had like half an inch more clearance in this case I could put a good GPU

like it barrrely doesn't fit

& I'm not buying a GPU for this lol

[hoary zodiac]

OH MY GOD

NO WAY

JDEJBDJENDND

[idle nexus]

on the other hand, the Thermaltake View300 fits 1080ti x2 ez

[hoary zodiac]

IT WAS THE BIOS

WHYYYYYY

[surreal kernel]

270 for a 3050

damn

[hoary zodiac]

TWO DAYS OF TROUBLESHOOTING AND IT WAS THE BIOS ALL ALONG

[idle nexus]

I'm convinced I'm the only person who bought this case lol https://thermaltakeusa.com/collections/chassis/products/view-300-mx-mid-tower-chassis-ca-1p6-00m1wn-00

[surreal kernel]

330 for a 4060

[surreal kernel]

I could see myself rocking this but no

[idle nexus]

I would try to avoid 3050 if you can

[idle nexus]

it comes with two front panels

[hoary zodiac]

I'm gonna go make lunch and then reinstall hyprland

[idle nexus]

not for everyone I suppose

[hoary zodiac]

Screw asus bios

[sweet phoenix]

Yknow maybe I should update my bios

[surreal kernel]

ryzen 7 580x

5800x

for 170

[surreal kernel]

valid

[hoary zodiac]

ooooo nice case

[sweet phoenix]

5700x3d or 5600/x

5800x won't offer anything in games over a 5600/x

And x3d is 15-20% better

[idle nexus]

there's a 5600X3D but is that still microcenter exclusive? I dunno

[surreal kernel]

it's a 5800x

[sweet phoenix]

Yes

[idle nexus]

ya 5700X3D beats 285K sometimes iirc lmao

[sweet phoenix]

And im saying to avoid it

5800x is just hot and overpriced

Even if you need multi core perf, 5700x is just as good and is much easier to cool

The 5800x was just weird

[surreal kernel]

idk where to get that one

the first

its too xpensive

like 300

[sweet phoenix]

Is 5600x3d there?

If not, just settle for 5600/x, assuming it's just a gaming build

Or save up and swap cpu later

[surreal kernel]

I got a 5600

already

alr chat going for these 2

[sweet phoenix]

5800x will do no better in games

[surreal kernel]

they come in 2 weeks

[sweet phoenix]

Looks good

[surreal kernel]

should I place the order rn

or tmr morning

considering it's 1 am for me

[idle nexus]

dayum

[surreal kernel]

ima wait till tmr morning

[safe cape]

search for a cheaper case maybe ??

[surreal kernel]

the other ones are wack

[safe cape]

rip

i wanted to see

but cant access the website different region

[surreal kernel]

how come

[safe cape]

its normal

[idle nexus]

VPN lol

[safe cape]

yeah

free vpn ?

🙃

[hoary zodiac]

I've reinstalled arch linux so many times in the past day I could speedrun it

💀

[wary fjord]

Yeah its cheap right

Waiting for it to hit 50 bucks

XD

[wary fjord]

U manually do it?

[safe cape]

any good tutorial ?

[wary fjord]

Arch on its pure form is just shell

[surreal kernel]

OK I still haven't bought em

I'm so stupid

[wary fjord]

Nerds on yt set it up ground up to have full experience very cool

[hoary zodiac]

Arch wiki

[surreal kernel]

ok ima buy them

I'm done

I don't wana regret it thk

what if I find better parts

[storm narwhal]

I mean then you might as well never buy anything again

[wary fjord]

Just dont buy anything soon as you get them they already old

Whats the point xD

[surreal kernel]

hmmm

hmmm

wait this store got some heat

[sweet phoenix]

These are not good

P650g is either c or d tier i forget

Bm2 is c tier

[surreal kernel]

hmm

can you look for me on the website please?

[storm narwhal]

If is bacca approved its pretty good

[sweet phoenix]

I cannot

I'm in class

[surreal kernel]

oh alr I'll prolly js come in that tmr

[storm narwhal]

If it's not bacca approved do not

[icy ore]

Bacca approved ✅

[surreal kernel]

[sweet phoenix]

Those all look alright

[craggy shoal]

Felt weak in image

[dusk knot]

dear lord.the 5080 better not have 16gb of VRAM

[rancid juniper]

it will, and you'll LOVE IT

[craggy shoal]

I might as well just get a 4080 Super if the 5080 is gonna have 16GB

[dusk knot]

the game already needs an ideal amount of 12gbs

thats very bad

[rancid juniper]

[dusk knot]

i feel like that will be the case

5090 is our only hope

nvidia won

we the customer have no choice but to bend the knee

[sinful blade]

Just get an a770, 16GB of VRAM

[dusk knot]

nuts

all that vram with not enough raw horse power

[sinful blade]

4060ti compatible power

[dusk knot]

eh

[sinful blade]

With newest drivers

[craggy shoal]

5080: I have 16GB
4060 Ti: Welcome to the 16GB club. The audience will hate you

[dusk knot]

what is that in 3000 series?

[sinful blade]

I think a 3070 or something

[dusk knot]

oof

[mortal grail]

Guys I think I found what killed my 7950X3D

[craggy shoal]

The 4060 Ti is for AI atp. There's no other reason to own one for how much it costs tbh

[dusk knot]

hhmm

[sinful blade]

Either 3070 or 3070ti

I can’t remember

[mortal grail]

2TB ssd is faulty

[sinful blade]

Used market >>>>>

[mortal grail]

Backfeed current into the cpu, makes pc run slow af

[craggy shoal]

And it killed your 7950X3D?

[dusk knot]

RMA it. its all good

[craggy shoal]

ah gotcha

[mortal grail]

I'm pretty sure yeah, cooked IO die

Any time I'd try doing something with more than 2 usb plugged in = hard freeze

[mortal grail]

It got RMA'd, then refunded

So used the full refund on a 9800X3D which runs perfectly fine

[dusk knot]

ay

your misfortune turned into a good thing

[mortal grail]

It did

[proud jackal]

i want 9800x3d

[mortal grail]

And I found what probably was the culprit

So all worked out

[opaque sedge]

[dusk knot]

Australian getting fiber only to have a minimum of 100ms latency

[opaque sedge]

[wary fjord]

Fiber is new to Australia?

Why it has 100ms

Here we got 5ms xD

[dusk knot]

80 series and up for me

[hoary zodiac]

Why is everything running with the dgpu by default now wtf

I don't need to run Minecraft with the dgpu

[rancid juniper]

the only way

[dusk knot]

i had a 3070

wasnt enough

neither was my 2070s

maybe by the end of next year I can get a 5090

[craggy shoal]

I just want a GPU that can last like my 13700K theoretically could

"but oxidation" not talking about that

like $1K for a 4080 Super and I'm still GPU bound? Completely nuts to me. Why can't we have GPUs that last three years with about the same kind of longevity as CPUs?

But no we have to have barely obtainable GPUs that give whatever okayish performance for their price and you're expected to pay for next year's GPU because your current one is "outdated"

4070 Super isn't doing enough for me lol

Locked 180fps in COD but it's not comfortable enough

[dusk knot]

i wish it was like this

[dusk knot]

im done with PvP

[craggy shoal]

If Intel didn't have issues, my 13700K could've lasted a few years. I wouldn't ever need to upgrade until GPUs catchup to it

[dusk knot]

i can only play one or two rounds now without getting bored

[dusk knot]

time for another hobby

[craggy shoal]

Nah don't lol

sure it's fun but that "another hobby" is actually "another" hobby and your PC hobby actually stays, piling on costs per all hobbies combined

💀

(Ask me how I know)

[dusk knot]

in an ideal world, I would be like theo

taking care of my baby( my pc) by showering it with upgrades

[dusk knot]

what other cool hobbies do you have?

[craggy shoal]

3D printing, self hosting, sim racing, PCs (obviously), mountain biking, AI is new for me (falls under self hosting given the way I'm using it). Does keyboards count? Kinda trying to get into audio as well

And let me tell you, ~$30K per year doesn't suffice for all of it 💀 (at least if you want to just get projects done)

[dusk knot]

30k really isnt enough

goofd thing you got a wife/gf to help out a bit

[craggy shoal]

it isn't honestly lmao

[hoary zodiac]

can you even pay rent

with 30K

[craggy shoal]

but I also don't have a payment and I live with my family

lmaooo no 💀

Trying to get a full time job where my gf lives

combined income would be (roughly) 100K B)

[hoary zodiac]

that's a lot more reasonable

still might be a bit tight

[craggy shoal]

I live in Texas

doable

[hoary zodiac]

fair

[craggy shoal]

My gf is just barely doing it at $33K

her rent is like just under half of her income lmao

[dusk knot]

How old are you, motor?

[craggy shoal]

24

[dusk knot]

Our generation is doomed

[craggy shoal]

Should be making $65K rn but that didn't work out 🫠

[hoary zodiac]

housing prices are never coming down

💀

[dusk knot]

I have no shame living with my family. I don’t think I’m getting a house in Florida

[craggy shoal]

I was working for my university last year and I was supposed to be working for an MSP this year (the MSP was signed with the school I was working at). They changed GMs and the new GM was like "nah you ain't getting hired" and now my life is a huge mess 💀

[hoary zodiac]

that's gonna be the norm for gen z

[craggy shoal]

I wish I can swear in this server just to say eff that guy bruh

[dusk knot]

Wow.

I felt that

[craggy shoal]

Stay motivated and get a motivated gf. Move in together. That's how her and I are gonna do it

I just need to find a job in her area

[hoary zodiac]

yeah

[dusk knot]

That’s the way

[hoary zodiac]

these days it's too expensive to live alone

[craggy shoal]

I'll probably still get my own place though because I absolutely hate the networking at her place. I do self hosting. It's wild that they disabled all of the ethernets at her complex

[craggy shoal]

yeah this exactly. basically just get a roommate lmao

[hoary zodiac]

I bet they have isps that block port forwarding too

[craggy shoal]

actually I think her complex allows you to get your own ISP if you'd like. But she doesn't need that and she only makes $33K. I don't blame her either lol. "I have Internet but I don't make much. Why bother?"
