[idle nexus]

DOJ wants Google to divest Chrome lmao

[wicked oriole]

I did also buy a lossless scaling frame gen thing to try to fix frame gen, but it actually just made my fps worse

[opaque sedge]

You have a 4080super

You should not be worrying abt not having enough fps

[idle nexus]

depends on the game tbh

& resolution for sure

[wicked oriole]

In 4k it does give me an extra 30 so imma take that

[opaque sedge]

Stalker 2 too ig

[wicked oriole]

2k I'm not worried about, 4k is the issue, 60 without frame gen is barely playable to me. Feels slightly too slow. Frame gen bumps it up to 90 which feels a lot better

[opaque sedge]

Damn what game are you not getting 60frames on?

[wicked oriole]

But then causes tearing. That's only in hogwarts. Cyber punk just has a permanent ghosting on the text and mini map stuff like that

[wicked oriole]

No I'm saying I'll get 60fps def after my new clocking, I'm just saying it feels too slow

And I know in cyber punk I'm for sure hitting 30fps with no frame gen lol and that also doesn't fix the slight ghosting from map and on screen HUD

[thorny loom]

hey yall a little help

i just found this rx 6800 on newegg for 340, sold by xfx and shipped by newegg but has no reviews

was this like just put it or something?

[wicked oriole]

It probably also doesn't help im running everything at its max, so that poor 4080 is doing as much as it can do lol

[thorn quartz]

ddr4 or ddr5 for 13600k?

[tranquil pebble]

sold by xfx means its a safe buy if that is what you want to know

[swift star]

holy quackamole this chat goes and goes

[opaque sedge]

Gone are the two years of the rx 7000 series and rtx 40 series where gamers could confidently max out games given at a respective resolution to their hardware

[swift star]

who here hates me for keeping a regualr hard disk drive in my computer?

[tranquil pebble]

I dont judge for that lol

[opaque sedge]

No one prolly

[thorny loom]

mind if I send ya the link JUST to make sure xd

[tranquil pebble]

as long as you arent using it as boot drive

[opaque sedge]

Arent hard disks also less prone to failure than nvmes?

So wouldn’t they be clutch for important files?

Or backup

[swift star]

this is 25 we upload our stuff to the cloud

[tranquil pebble]

no

[opaque sedge]

Ic

[tranquil pebble]

HDDs can store data without power for longer, but are more prone to failure from use

[swift star]

some guys like having a hard physical copy they can pour on there chest

[opaque sedge]

Btw are you using ur hard drive as a boot or extra storage 💀

[swift star]

no one here has a cd rom drive i know

[tranquil pebble]

relying on the cloud is a bad idea

[tranquil pebble]

I have 3 DVD burners lol

[swift star]

ok some of use use punch cards to boot

[opaque sedge]

Oh right i remember someone here sharing stories abt the old days of bootleg burned dvds for music and movies

[swift star]

its hard to hear but the 90s was 40 years ago

[opaque sedge]

Or was it in a different server…

[opaque sedge]

Still half a decade away

[tranquil pebble]

that makes me sound older than I am lol

[swift star]

well im 50 now, can i buy a floppy disk drive here?

[tranquil pebble]

Floppies were out of production at least 10 years ago

[opaque sedge]

Jesus

Games used to be on floppies too right

[tranquil pebble]

yeah, in the 80s and early 90s... they went to CDs pretty fast though

[swift star]

was it 3 and a quarter inch or 4?

[tranquil pebble]

3 and a quarter are the floppies I used to use

1.44 MB

[swift star]

brah you a dinosaur lol

you dont have to defend yourself

[tranquil pebble]

not really... floppies werre used well into the 2000s

[opaque sedge]

How popular was gaming within homes back then?

Cuz i thought people went to arcades or smth for video games

[tranquil pebble]

idk about 80s as I was born in 92, but it was definitely a thing in the 90s... like booming even

[swift star]

born in 92? that means when you was 3 i was in the 5ifth grade

[opaque sedge]

The economic growth technological growth and overall happiness sounds so much better in the 90s 😭

[swift star]

[tranquil pebble]

Some people get gray hair in their teens

[swift star]

https://tenor.com/view/baki-redditor-gif-26072849

[tranquil pebble]

not common, but it does happen

[swift star]

its ok i found what i wasn't looking for

so some computers still come with 8gb ram is that enuff?

[tranquil pebble]

no, not really

not with Windows 11 anyways. For that you want 16 GB

[swift star]

this is like two guys smoking out back talking about ddr 4 or ddr 5

[tranquil pebble]

except you wouldnt catch me dead with a cancer stick in my mouth

[swift star]

bro im on your side, they're after me *takes a shot of liquor

if these nerds ask i used to work at radio shack

[nocturne flicker]

[tranquil pebble]

RadioShack was great... with that gone I can't buy caps and resistors in a store anymore

[opaque sedge]

This reminds me of that regular show episode abt getting calls from the past

[rancid juniper]

[wicked oriole]

Fair games are demanding

I'll send my benchmark score when I get home in the am

[nocturne flicker]

Do you know how many documents I can write at once with 1kb?!?!?!

[velvet summit]

man got the pcb with no die or vram

[swift star]

whens the last time you had to write in cursive lol

[wicked oriole]

As much as I've wanted to buy a used 4090 from marketplace this is why I haven't lol

[opaque sedge]

[velvet summit]

learned cursive for 1 year and never used it again

[opaque sedge]

I wanna see if he posted abt getting a 4090 order at an insanely good price previously

[swift star]

i normally order car parts but like not for me? they keep askin to fix they're junk

[wicked oriole]

Plus idk if I even wanna get a 4090 rn, and idk if I wanna jump on a 50 series since my pc is still mostly new, but 4k is demanding

[swift star]

ppl who work on vechicles and those who work ok computers are two of the same boat

[opaque sedge]

No details on where he ordered from or how much he ordered from

[nocturne flicker]

I don't actually know either

[opaque sedge]

But a comment pointed out the dies could be getting stolen to sell in china considering its banned there

Probably thru the black market

[swift star]

sore finger gonna get crazy lol

[velvet summit]

taking the dies off are ususally done by drilling them out rather than perfectly desoldering just the die and vram

at least from what i've seen

[swift star]

why would you delid anything other than to say you can?

did i say something offensive

[velvet summit]

?

i mean, you delid because the cpu gets so hot that it cant be cooled without being delidded cough 14900ks

[swift star]

but why tho didn't the pentium 4 hit 3.4 ghz 20 years ago

[velvet summit]

if you delid a i3 14100 or whatever, then there's pretty much no point
well, maybe if you do ln2 oc then maybe there would be some point

[opaque sedge]

Oh god 😭

[velvet summit]

and recently somebody overclocked the 14900ks to like 9ghz

[swift star]

imagine 100 years when ppl are like 9 ghz lol 50 bizzlahrz

[velvet summit]

that isnt even a word

[opaque sedge]

A new standard or method for processing data might come out by then

[velvet summit]

there has been research into organic processing

actually, a youtuber also has been doing some of that

[opaque sedge]

Would the appropriate word be processing or computing?

[velvet summit]

i think both works?

[opaque sedge]

Has he ever gotten into legal trouble 💀

i think he's like one of the only science youtubers that havent gotten a visit from like the fbi

somehow

[swift star]

if your born in the south you are pretty much gonna have legal trouble lol

[opaque sedge]

Great so he even has plot armor

[tranquil pebble]

plot armor is the strongest thing ever

[swift star]

i dont know.. how close to the line i can push this

[chrome mirage]

Still haven't had any performance issues or glitches in Stalker 2. I'm glad I upgraded my PC before it came out.

[opaque sedge]

Even stronger than dee-

[opaque sedge]

Did new amd drivers for the game come out?

If they did I don't think I downloaded them yet. I've been getting over 70fps since launch on my 7800XTX

Razer makes cabbage now apparently

truly one of the typos of all time

[opaque sedge]

The topic of conversation earlier here was the 90s and look what came up in my yt short feed

https://youtube.com/shorts/8SIT0KnYis4?si=g4VPWaB6dko2vB_a

[opaque sedge]

Ok given a mobile keyboard layout it seem it is possible to mistype fanbase into cabbage

[velvet summit]

how did cabbage even appear

[opaque sedge]

I assume auto correct did its magic in the last half

[velvet summit]

i mean, it's not too far from the letters but it also is kinda far away?

[nocturne flicker]

https://tenor.com/view/avatar-cuddle-hungry-yummy-food-gif-5610436

[velvet summit]

canbase

idk man

[opaque sedge]

He prolly ended up typing cabbase which autocorrected to cabbage

[velvet summit]

seems still a bit far lmfao

[opaque sedge]

Ignore my almost a word error

[velvet summit]

but fanbase has nb which is one letter off, unless they didnt move their finger at all while trying to type fanbase?

idk

[opaque sedge]

F and c too

[velvet summit]

well, starting position makes a bit of sense, but if the letters are right next to each other, theoretically you would move your finger slightly to the left while typing the nb since they're right next to each other

[nocturne flicker]

I dunno man maybe Razer is stealth launching cabbage

[velvet summit]

yeah i think that's more accurate

razer found out that the gaming market isnt enough

cabbage is also green so it's practically razer already

[nocturne flicker]

Can't wait for Apple branded Apples

[nocturne flicker]

[opaque sedge]

Sadly

[velvet summit]

(this was a jojo reference)

[opaque sedge]

Cyberpunk

Blaze of glory or quiet life is the theme of the story

Especially with the new dlc ending

[velvet summit]

https://tenor.com/view/rudol-von-stroheim-stroheim-jojos-bizarre-adventure-jojo-battle-tendency-gif-13994621

[north crescent]

Sometimes autocorrect is like Windows search and gives a result that was taken from a random number generator

[opaque sedge]

Go out with a bang and become a legend while young or fade away into a nobody as you age

[nocturne flicker]

I dunno man, I'd like a quiet life if you ask me

[rancid juniper]

the heck is this, cyberpunk?

[opaque sedge]

Kind of the theme of the game

Wrong gif

[rancid juniper]

id just relax

not gonna go out like crazy

[swift star]

idk if fyou get in my car its probably gonna have staticicy country music and the occasional ciggerette

[nocturne flicker]

Huh?

[opaque sedge]

Well the main character does have a bleak life with nothing shiny basically pushed to brink whether u go with the nomad corpo or streetkid lifepath

And basically desires to be someone

A legend basically

Especially cuz in the lore of the game they have such figures

[swift star]

is nindo gonna sue me lol

[rancid juniper]

yes i played the game already

i know the struggles of V

[opaque sedge]

Oh wait

Ur not theo

[swift star]

i dont know what to call it when i dont use a fork or spoon, a spork?

[opaque sedge]

The red name always confuses me 💀

And doesn’t help the dog and the cat have similar colors

[idle nexus]

lol I'm not for both

maybe 9800X3D eventually

I wanna see 9900X3D & 9950X3D cuz rumor is they will have 3d vcache on both CCDs this time

[swift star]

has anyone really watched the aprils fools 4090 ti video?, if anyone has yall have probably

[velvet summit]

hands

[opaque sedge]

[opaque sedge]

Before i get flamed i’m from the same ethnic background as this dude

[idle nexus]

I'm curious whether CCD to CCD communication will negate the whole 2x the x3d thing

[opaque sedge]

And eating with hands is pretty nice

[opaque sedge]

I still do it sometimes

[idle nexus]

the problem with eating with hands is usually a napkin just isn't enough

gotta do full hand wash or there will be residue

[velvet summit]

using hands to eat is common in pretty much every culture

[idle nexus]

I rarely eat with hands tho tbh. I even cut up my pizza lmao

[opaque sedge]

Well yeah 💀

Ofc you gotta wash hands

We literally have a word for washing hands after eating

[tranquil pebble]

Me: Hell no

[velvet summit]

i think like, english (as in british) culture is pretty much the only culture that pretty much only uses utencils? might be wrong, but every other culture i can think of has at least one food traditionally eaten with hands

all that sorted forks on the left knife on the right spoons at the top & place your utensils on the plate correctly stuff is a lot to remember

[opaque sedge]

British want their fruits sliced up

[tranquil pebble]

Idk how I would react to seeing someone eat a banana with a fork or something

[opaque sedge]

[opaque sedge]

The peel can count as a utensil or holder ig

[velvet summit]

idk how accurate it is but i'm pretty sure that fruits are supposed to be pre-cut before serving? in british cusine i mean

[idle nexus]

only the dessert spoon goes at the top

[opaque sedge]

Is this a block layout for a mobo?

[velvet summit]

💀

tea, white and red wine and water all at the same meal

[idle nexus]

lol it's how to "properly" set a table

well the water is a "pallet cleanser" I think

[tranquil pebble]

you would not have all of those at once ofc

[opaque sedge]

My ass would go hungry rather than embarrassing itself in that table

[velvet summit]

well, water definitely makes sense but 2 wines and a tea as well, getting kinda freaky now

[tranquil pebble]

just what you need for the meal

[idle nexus]

cuz heck forbid you mix flavors in your mouth & the chef goes home crying & feeling unappreciated

[idle nexus]

lol I've had to at least set up most of those things when I did catering

in like 2005

[opaque sedge]

On that note i’m gonna eat some instant noodles being the uncultured and impoverished swine i am

[idle nexus]

cuz in high school, any crappy way of getting money is a good way to get money (assuming it's legal ofc)

we really did put all three glasses

[velvet summit]

i know that you're supposed to use the outer most utincils first and they get taken away each course of the meal, so every meal you start off with soup or whatever, then you get a salad as well, then you get the main course or whatever so you can use the fork knife and spoon, and the bread knife is only used for spreading butter

[idle nexus]

technically there's a proper way to fill them too

[tranquil pebble]

right, I imagine that this set up is only done in certain settings. Nobody would be doing this daily.

[idle nexus]

lol maybe at like Buckingham Palace or something but realistically no

[velvet summit]

yeah this is really only done in like wedding dinners or whatever

[opaque sedge]

[opaque sedge]

Is that their hoa rules 💀

[idle nexus]

I'd guess yes

[opaque sedge]

Its a super saiyan hoa

it's kinda nuts how much power HOAs can have in FL

[velvet summit]

HOAs are a crazy concept to me

they practically dont exist here even in the more suburban areas

[idle nexus]

seems like they're often corrupt too

[velvet summit]

i've yet to hear any good stories about HOAs at least lmao

considering the amount of crap i hear about HOAs i'd expect to hear at least 1 good story? 😭

[opaque sedge]

Well a sort of government figure for homes inside of a community

[idle nexus]

I'm gonna go play S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 & wonder why I'm playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 if for no reason other than I hate writing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2

[opaque sedge]

[velvet summit]

i'd never want to live in a hoa community 😭 why would anyone ever want to move to one

[opaque sedge]

Prolly unknowingly

I assume realtors dont mention the hoas

[velvet summit]

i wouldnt want somebody telling me what my property should look like

i feel like that should be illegal if it isnt already

[idle nexus]

I mean for all the awfulness, they're usually clean & safe

[velvet summit]

to withold information about a property

[idle nexus]

pretty sure you have to disclose that to a potential buyer lol

there's a case where the finaly judgment said, "as a matter of law, the house is haunted."

[velvet summit]

lmfao

[idle nexus]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stambovsky_v._Ackley

[velvet summit]

why would make a hoa community "safe" though

i mean, i can see how it would be cleaner since there's rules set for how your front yard looks like

[idle nexus]

gated community, hire security guards, pay for camera installs ig

[velvet summit]

hmm

are all hoa communities gated though

[idle nexus]

I don't think so

[velvet summit]

hmm

[idle nexus]

you can have an HOA for like a single building too usually

[velvet summit]

hmm

tbh idk why you would even need a hoa to keep your house looking ok lmao

i think most people know how to make their house look normal enough

[tranquil pebble]

legally haunted is not something I ever expected to read

[velvet summit]

like, where i live has no hoa but pretty much every property is maintained well

with no oversight from a hoa

[idle nexus]

lol because the seller didn't disclose it yet tried to claim & profit from it being haunted before they sold

[worn wave]

https://www.vg247.com/unreal-engine-5-has-been-a-disappointment

[idle nexus]

which meant later when the buyers tried to sell again, it wasn't worth as much or something ig

[upper hawk]

I think we are yet to see a super high budget ue5 game

[idle nexus]

or that was their fear I assume

or they were scared to live in a haunted house

either way they wanted out of the contract to buy the place

[velvet summit]

I mean, I don't see the problem with needing to run at lower graphics settings because current hardware isn't powerful enough

The games are still going to look graphically impressive even with low graphics

[opaque sedge]

Yh black myth wukong looks pretty neat at medium

[velvet summit]

Remember when Crysis 3 came out

[worn wave]

Lumen and nanite were supposed to make games lighter to run

[opaque sedge]

Its like 2015 all over again

[nocturne flicker]

Most don't because it hurts the house's value

[velvet summit]

Or like, half life 2 even struggled to run at max settings on hardware of that generation

[nocturne flicker]

Because HOAs are disgusting organizations that should be illegal

[opaque sedge]

(It was 2015 and before right when people didn’t use to go max everything for games)

[opaque sedge]

I agree

[opaque sedge]

Either way it was a nice 2 years when peeps got to experience max settings in games this generation

(Half a year for me tho )

[upper hawk]

Apparently the game just freezes for 10 seconds when entering towns on the series x

[worn wave]

I don't mind turning down settings at all, in fact I somewhat enjoy tinkering to find what seems to be the most optimal combination of settings. But my (albeit somewhat limited) experience with ue5 games is that even turning everything to low can still be taxing. I don't know if it's devs not optimizing, low settings not being low enough, or some sort of engine overhead. Maybe a combination.

[velvet summit]

Add a loading indicator and then people know it's loading like most games in the past

[upper hawk]

missed out a very important context there

[opaque sedge]

There should be a loading indicator for

De-

[velvet summit]

Well, I assume the problem is that it's not being loaded fast enough so just slapping a loading screen on it would solve that problem

[velvet summit]

What happened to cutting back on the Deez nuts jokes ☠️

November isn't even over

[worn wave]

Back in 2016 you could play battlefront or battlefield 1 (both Frostbite engine) on a 1050Ti ($182 inflation adjusted) at medium-high settings and get 60+fps

[opaque sedge]

Dont some games where crossing a narrow passageway or sorts a way to mask loading screens in order to keep the player engaged?

[opaque sedge]

I tried

[velvet summit]

Yeah

[opaque sedge]

Pretty sure current gen entry level cards can do the same even with ue5 games

[velvet summit]

Sometimes just a loading icon works as well just so people don't think the game is broken

[worn wave]

For $182 tho? What's that get you?

Maybe a 6600 on sale

[opaque sedge]

Oof yh entry level is 3 hundies for current gen

[upper hawk]

That is more on the hardware vendors

[opaque sedge]

Just glad to hear games haven’t gone much up in pricing tho

Cept ubisoft

[wicked oriole]

Anyone got a recommendation for a pc that is capable of playing gta and bo3 modded zombies on 1440p for 1-1.3k budget? I found a couple of things, but all on am4, told my buddy he'd be better off paying a bit up for am5 cause ddr5 and upgrade potential

[worn wave]

I think devs are getting lazy and using see UE5 + upscaling as a crutch. (This is not necessarily about stalker 2, as I believe it's a fairly small dev team and they were also impacted by the war in Ukraine) But I believe some upcoming star wars and tomb raider games (bigger devs) are going to be UE5

[wicked oriole]

And i don't know much bout intdl cpu

[opaque sedge]

Peeps were making a bunch of lists here for pcs when the ps5 pro launched

[velvet summit]

Don't even consider Intel anymore ong

[opaque sedge]

And bacca and felix even managed to make a 1.2k am5 1440p rig

[wicked oriole]

I'm really not lol I found a decent on on marketplace but had intel lol

[opaque sedge]

Albeit with an alieexpress 7500f

[wicked oriole]

I think they'd be perfect for him

[upper hawk]

One of the better pre built deals I have seen

[sage sluice]

I could do that for 700 ez

Just take out the gpu 🙏

And play roblox

[wicked oriole]

I think that'd be perfect for him

[velvet summit]

Looked at the ue5 game list and I see some familiar names

Satisfactory used UE5 (I didn't even realize they switched to that lmao) and that runs very well

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Unreal_Engine_5_games

[wicked oriole]

He said all he was gonna do was gta and modded zombies but he will probably get the pc itch and realize he has more stuff to do on it now vs his console

[sage sluice]

Thats actually almost 100 dollars cheaper than what i paid for mine even with 2tb storage and that gets a chip upgrade

[wicked oriole]

Cyberpower bleh but that will be his problem 😅

[misty sparrow]

A lot of games with UE5 look way too similar, photorealistic games with no discernible art style

[sage sluice]

Does that come with an AIO as well?

[misty sparrow]

In fact it’s probably a problem with the gaming industry in general

[worn wave]

Probably something like this

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9rPsZc

Case can be changed to fit preference, just there as a price placeholder

[sage sluice]

Native mid range should honestly be the main judge for performance

[opaque sedge]

7600 comes with a stock cooler too but ig a thermalright is worth it

[worn wave]

Yeah personally I find the stock coolers kinda loud. At that price point for a build I like to toss in the assassin

[velvet summit]

Well, mainly with the triple a studios specifically
Many indie games have their own unique styles

I think the problem has to do with the types of games

[opaque sedge]

If he has headroom for an extra 100 bucks gre or the 4070 super could be a good choice too

[sage sluice]

Although i think games like Alan wake 2 are fine when you consider it does have VERY good optimization, even despite it's very straining performance on pcs

[velvet summit]

Specific art styles/stylistic graphics work with more specific types of games

[opaque sedge]

I noticed this in god of war ragnarok is a dx11 game but it is demanding

[sage sluice]

Too many triple a studios think they have to be the Disney of live action in order to make good games

[tranquil pebble]

JRPG games are great with stylized art

[velvet summit]

Like the recent popular indie psychological horror game, mouthwashing, has a very stylized art style that imo fits the game very well

[opaque sedge]

Until then my impression of dx11 was last gen games so will run easily

How wrong i was

And ignorant

[sage sluice]

Notice how much people hate on live Disney's souless live action movies

[velvet summit]

I don't think it would fit with a game like Concord or whatever

[sage sluice]

Games shouldn't be any different

[wicked oriole]

Ty guys

[worn wave]

Cheapest gre is $530 rn which is 20% more than the 7800xt. I think 7800xt is the value pick. Leaves room in the budget for a 1440p monitor as well

[tranquil pebble]

dx11 will run worse than dx12 assuming a proper implementation of both

[worn wave]

Depends on hardware as well

[tranquil pebble]

yeah ofc

[sage sluice]

So many factors go together here there's bound to be trouble

[tranquil pebble]

most newer cards will prefer dx12

[velvet summit]

Vulkan >

[sage sluice]

What actually even is vulkan technology

[tranquil pebble]

OpenGL on steroids

[wicked oriole]

Yeah I'm tryna go that route for him, idk much bout amd cards either

Besides they offer way more vram than nvidia

[velvet summit]

Vulkan runs so much better on many systems

[worn wave]

Yeah I think anything Nvidia 30xx or AMD 6xxx is almost always better off on dx12. I have a friend with a 20 series card who's Apex runs better on dx11 tho. Might be related to cpu perf as well

[wicked oriole]

But no nvidia features (i don't think he'll need dlss for midrange)

[worn wave]

My first time running R6 Siege on Vulkan on my 1050 laptop 🤯

[sage sluice]

So is vulkan just a better optimized graphics system or?

[velvet summit]

It's also free/open

[sage sluice]

That's awesome

[tranquil pebble]

Vulkan is a graphics rendering API. Programs and games use it to draw graphics

[velvet summit]

It's more optimized for offloading as much work to the GPU with less cpu overhead or whatever

[opaque sedge]

So its the linux of game apis?

[velvet summit]

At least that's what my understanding of it is

[tranquil pebble]

its not a game API. It is for high performance graphics in general

[velvet summit]

Er... Idk how well that analogy works lmao

[sage sluice]

Isn't openGL open source?

[velvet summit]

I think so

I mean, it has open in the name

[opaque sedge]

It works as well as my dn jokes

[velvet summit]

[tranquil pebble]

also finer control of rendering given to the programmer

[opaque sedge]

😔

[velvet summit]

Yesterday I learned that there's a Specialized store in Austin

Guys I want a Stumpy

[wicked oriole]

wow thats a name i havent heard of in years

are they still dog water in quality or have they gotten better?

i was a felt guy myself

[craggy shoal]

I didn’t know they were bad at one point lol. I’ve only recently (towards the beginning of this year) got into MTB'ing

[wicked oriole]

i remember my dad hating specialized growing up, but i swear he owns one now

i was 13 in my dads friends shop helpin him build bikes, was pretty cool

[craggy shoal]

My friend has a Stumpy and I’m jealous. I forgot the brakes he has on it but they’re like top-end brakes and he also has a whole SRAM XS Eagle drivetrain on his

[wicked oriole]

isn't stumpy the crazy big like off off road mountain bike? big ole tires

[craggy shoal]

Like a $10K bike lol. He's an associate at a bike shop though so he got it for like $5K I think

[wicked oriole]

bikes are digustingly pricey

[craggy shoal]

For trail/enduro, yes. Their top-end downhill is the V10

[wicked oriole]

my dads buddy had one when they were a newer company iirc, never forget how huge the tires were on that thing, and this man was like 6'7 300lbs RIPPED man was irl hulk

and to top it off mans had it as a one speed

and i rode a one speed when i was 13 cause i didn't understand how to shift lmao i learned when i was 15 on really bad walmart bikes my friend group passed around cause it was stolen lmaooooo

i think it was a fat boy

Overall since I’m not just playing one game

I just watched a review on the H9 elite and they say you should get a vertical mount because the GPU cable will be pushed up against the glass

[devout forum]

[potent robin]

idk how you eff up that bad. I put an AIO mount on a 11700k 4 years ago, still kicking

[devout forum]

Gaming Plus, I'm about 85% sure

[devout forum]

it's almost certainly a B650 Gaming Plus

[opaque sedge]

Oh wait he commented abt it

[devout forum]

the heatsink is unique

[opaque sedge]

I’m still wondering how he had the heatsink mounted without appropriate brackets

[craggy shoal]

That wouldn't have mattered

The CPU cooler doesn't cool the pins lol

[devout forum]

I'm about 65% sure it was either old bios from the funni days, or just plain user error

[opaque sedge]

Dont we usually have to remove those to mount coolers?

[devout forum]

Y'all remember when 7800X3Ds got fried?

[dusk knot]

Yes

I have that same cooler. You're supposed to remove those plastic brackets

Is there a way to put this type of RGB on your GPU?

[craggy shoal]

get deez nuts checked

[devout forum]

old BIOS could be on the board

[devout forum]

First of all why would you do it? It's honestly pretty ugly
But second, yes, it's called RGB strips

[craggy shoal]

This has been happening with one or two 9800X3Ds as well. BIOS version could be arguable but I wouldn't doubt it

[fervent stump]

Tf you mean why?

For looks

[devout forum]

those were both confirmed user error

[fervent stump]

I like it

[craggy shoal]

Is it an ROG Strix? It comes with it

Is it not an ROG Strix? Engineer it yourself. There's no documentation for that lol and it would be custom atp (would be cool though ngl)

I want to diffuse the RGB on my ROG Strix

I don't like the glossy look. I want something more matte

[potent robin]

On a long enough timeline, everyone reverts back to Dark Mode

[craggy shoal]

It looks the same with this 7800X3D ngl

@craggy shoal do you think $450 for a new am5 build without a gpu is decent

With an MSI brand kb&m

[opaque sedge]

Depends on the chip mobo psu

[craggy shoal]

Depends. What's the CPU? I would say yes if it's an 8000-series CPU just for the iGPU

[sinful blade]

8500g, b650, snd 650w

[craggy shoal]

Yeah that's not bad

What model PSU though? (This might not even matter tbh because there's no GPU lol)

[sinful blade]

Uhhh

https://www.newegg.com/p/3D5-0049-00027?Item=9SIAN6WK911249&tpk=1

[craggy shoal]

Yeah just swap out the PSU if it's something non-reputable

Storage upgrades will also be a good upgrade as well but PSU should be top priority in prebuilts imo

[safe cape]

why not build it yourself ?

more expensive ?

[worn wave]

If card != MSI Ventus {
Cardgood = TRUE
}

[fervent stump]

Soooooooo? It’s not good?

Also if the fans are RGB, I probably should vertically mount it right

[worn wave]

Depends on the case. On some cases the vertical mount is too close to the side panel and thus the gpu doesn't get enough airflow.

[fervent stump]

I have space in mine, but people say if you put it normal it’s too close against the glass

Also, can you guys tell me the names between these two cases like full tower or whatever it’s called because the NZXT server is just making jokes about it

[worn wave]

I'd say right is a ful tower fishtank/dual chamber, the left looks more like a mid tower

[barren junco]

it’s the uh lemme get the box

b650 aurorus elite ax ice

[idle nexus]

okay did you already connect the main 24-pin on the side?

& at least one of the CPU ones at the top left?

[barren junco]

i put the 24 pin and the top left has a 8 pin and a 4 pin

i put the 8 pin “cpu cable” and split the pcie i think it’s called to the left of the 8 pin

[idle nexus]

okay PCIe connections are 6-pin with a +2-pin & you use them for your graphics card or other PCIe device, not your CPU

only the 8-pin (typically looks like two groups of 4-pins) needs to be connected but make sure it's the CPU connection & not a PCIe

& btw if you see in the picture where on the top left I highlighted, you want to connect the 4+4, 8-pin CPU connection there & you can honestly ignore the extra 4-pin next to it because you'll likely only need that additional power if you're doing heavy overclocking (& even then you don't always need it)

Which graphics card are you using & which Power Supply?

[velvet summit]

think we found the issue (been doing it in the dms)

[idle nexus]

the CPU Connection looks similar to this

oh okay lol my bad

[velvet summit]

gpu wasnt seated properly because the tab

also the front panel connector was that monolithic connector and was shifted to the right by 1 pin, so hopefully reseating the gpu and having the connector shifted to the left fixes it

these tabs

[idle nexus]

glad to hear there wasn't a PCIe connection on the CPU cuz I dunno how that would've turned out

[velvet summit]

lmao

from what i see, everything was wired fine except for those 2 issues

[idle nexus]

ah okay

[fervent stump]

Alright thx

[barren junco]

could someone help me wit my gpu

[topaz crown]

Hello @barren junco! It appears that you're asking for help. Please ask again in the appropriate category so you can get faster help from people specializing in that field. Your question may not be answered here.

[barren junco]

my fault

[rancid juniper]

had to watch a tutorial on which connectors to use on my modular psu

[barren junco]

how do i know if my gpu is seated correctly

[candid kelp]

1000w psu for a < 500 w build is truely a choice of all time

[rancid juniper]

leyo is back ✅

[fervent stump]

Wdym

[candid kelp]

i be peeking in this server from time to time

[rancid juniper]

if there is a click when you install it, or if the gpu fans spin up when you turn on the pc lol

[candid kelp]

could call it overkill

[rancid juniper]

ah alr

[fervent stump]

It’s fine I’m future proofing

[barren junco]

there is a click but it don’t spin

[candid kelp]

i fear the day i would require a 1000w psu

[rancid juniper]

no display either right? make sure the additional power connectors are inserted properly

if nothing works just reseat the card again

or try a different slot

[barren junco]

okay

[dusk knot]

[storm narwhal]

There's a reason future proofing is the f word here

[tranquil pebble]

present proofing is hard enough as is

Here is how to actually future proof: Buy something reasonable that suits your needs now. Take the money you saved by not going all out and put it aside for the next build.

[storm narwhal]

Buy what you need now

Don't buy a product for what it might be in the future

Buy a product for what it can do now

Its like, paying to cryogenically freeze your body only for scientists in the future to find out they froze you the wrong way back then

And they effectively just killed you

[fervent stump]

lol

[fervent stump]

:D

Fannssss

[barren junco]

[idle nexus]

futureproof lol

[idle nexus]

send picture

like side of PC I mean

[barren junco]

i don’t have perms

[idle nexus]

no need to send $5 or $10 either lol

ah right

your name has to turn green

so don't spam nonsense but keep talking lol

like uh... something that could actually be constructive

which GPU are you using?

which case are you building in?

which PSU?

[barren junco]

i’m using rtx 4070 super OC ice

[idle nexus]

ah nice okay

[barren junco]

case is Montech king 95 pro

and psu is corsair 80 gold r 750w

i’ve been building for 2 days

[idle nexus]

can you send a picture from the side where I can see the motherboard, GPU, etc.

[barren junco]

like this?

[idle nexus]

ytes let me see real quick hold on

[barren junco]

okay

i can take pics of individual stuff if you need 🙏

[idle nexus]

on your power supply, did you connect both of the connections that go to the 24-pin?

[barren junco]

yes

[tranquil pebble]

Watch Microsoft end up baking Edge right into the NT kernel somehow

[idle nexus]

this is a 4+4 not a 6+2 right?

top left for CPU I mean

[idle nexus]

this one looks like the right connection

let me look up your PSU one second

RM750?

[barren junco]

someone said that i shouldn’t plug that one in it’s a pcie i think

[idle nexus]

I think that was

btw it's the Corsair RM750?

[barren junco]

it’s a MAG A750GL PCIE5

msi sorry

[idle nexus]

ah okay

[idle nexus]

you do not need to use adapters for your GPU btw

[barren junco]

ah so i use the yellow one that says 450W?

[idle nexus]

should look like that according to manual

[craggy shoal]

@opaque sedge boy do I have the post for you
https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/s/HbcVvZpE8f

[velvet summit]

oh hey you got your gpu in

[idle nexus]

yes

[velvet summit]

guess that didnt solve the problem though since you're still here

[idle nexus]

it should have 16 little connections lol

& fits here

[barren junco]

does it look right i took so long on it bru

[velvet summit]

it looks right now

[barren junco]

i found the yellow one w 450w but it has only 12 holes on each

[idle nexus]

when you turn on your PSU switch & press the power button, what happens

that's fine those little 4 at the bottom are the "sense pins" & count for the extra 4

[velvet summit]

it's 16 pin because the 4 extra pins here

[idle nexus]

12+4=16

[barren junco]

ah i see them

[idle nexus]

you don't have to go crazy or anything but be sure that cable is all the way in

[barren junco]

the cable plugged into the gpu is stuck bruh wtf

[idle nexus]

cuz that one has had issues lol

[velvet summit]

iceland

[idle nexus]

just make sure you push the tab down & try lightly wiggling it

those heckin things are hard to get out

it's amazing how many people managed to burn them up imo lol

[barren junco]

holy i thought i broke it
