Yes

[quaint folio]

just strange there was no outside tamper-proof seal

[dusk knot]

True

[quaint folio]

thank you guys, cant wait to build this

[dusk knot]

Have fun

[velvet summit]

interesting that such a high value component doesnt have a tamper proof seal

[steel talon]

Usps

[velvet summit]

my 6750xt had a taper proof seal itself

[steel talon]

I dont like usps

My package is suppose to arrive today

It was suppose to arrive saturday

[velvet summit]

and that is a somewhat lower value item compared to that lmao

So what big purchases does everyone have planned for Cyber Monday?

[unreal trail]

I got gum

[nocturne flicker]

I shall acquire Mac and Cheese

Truly the most cyber of purchases

[misty sparrow]

well, that 30th anniversary PS5 controller is available to order at best buy in about 17 minutes

so i'm going to try to get that

hopefully I can snag that

also looking for a mouse + good 1440p monitor for my budget

[dusk knot]

Make it so

[dusk knot]

Best buy. I hope it's possible

[misty sparrow]

good thing i'm not using exclusively best buy for mouse + 1440p monitor

it's just, there's a lot of mice and 1440p monitors

people say "this display's better" and "this one was just on sale, but this one is too"

and for mice, they say "pick one with your hand size + grip type" which sounds simple except there's a lot to pick from

[dusk knot]

True

[nocturne flicker]

It is going to be the cheapo stuff with powder 'cheese', but I've got a packet of shredded cheese at home I'll add to it so it actually tastes of cheese

[tacit quiver]

how do i install ubuntu on my i phone

[idle nexus]

well today I'm thirty heckin seven

middle age here I come

[idle nexus]

if you ever get an answer to this please lmk lol

[dusk knot]

Still pretty good

[tacit quiver]

i was trolling but you can use UTM SE (on app store) to run it in a VM

anyways need some advice

[idle nexus]

do they still update this? https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/

my Samsung is too locked down for this anyway

last time I checked there's no way to unlock bootloader on S23u North America version

[opaque sedge]

@dusk knot path tracing in 4k with over a 100 frames is never happening is it

[idle nexus]

or do I have S24u. I don't even remember I hate phones

[idle nexus]

5090

[opaque sedge]

Sounding like a boomer alr

[tacit quiver]

my current build has a z390 board with an i7-8700

ive got another desktop with a z390 board missing a processor that im looking to turn into a server

my options are either upgrade my i7-8700 to a 9th gen i7 or i9 and put the 8700 in the server, or i could pick up a 8th gen something and put that in my server

what should i do and what processors should i be considering? i9-9900ks are going for stupid prices on ebay, but a i9-9900kf or something is a little more reasonable. i7-8700s are cheap as dirt

[idle nexus]

maybe you'll get lucky on shopgoodwill.com lol

is that LGA1151?

[north crescent]

Isnt like 35 already middle age? Life expectancy of 79 would be 39.5 for middle of life. Middle age would be +/- ~5 years on middle of life, no?
Yes I may or may not be purposely making you feel old

[tacit quiver]

i think so its an old asf socket

the i9-9900ks is the most powerful processor i think it'll support

[opaque sedge]

I can’t imagine a less than 100% increase in perf achieving the above parameters ngl

[tacit quiver]

but theyre going for like $500 used on ebay 😭

[idle nexus]

I started using a second monitor since I always let iGPU do nothing

dunno why I replied to you about this

[opaque sedge]

Dlss doesn’t count horrid artifacting indoors and in lighting heavy and ray traced scenarios

[idle nexus]

anyway I'm changing the subject cuz middle age sounds crappy

[opaque sedge]

Sounds like smth a middle aged person would say

[proud jackal]

Hbd and must be nice to be young

[idle nexus]

middle age = what? the plague... uh... does the Magna Carta fall in there? that was kinda cool

[north crescent]

Bit much for this server

[cursive oasis]

[opaque sedge]

Middle age… ah the time those unfortunate enough to not die young must face… its the age where wealth peaks… or falls to abysmal levels… the age where marriages break apart… the age where you question your purpose… the age when u lose respect from yourself and from other…

Honestly u’ll prolly be fine

[north crescent]

Athlon starts with A like AyyMD. That means it beats 9950X3D. You should buy it.

[idle nexus]

after being confused by second monitor I found the stupid picture I meant to reply to this with

[idle nexus]

still kinda expensive tho https://computers.woot.com/offers/intel-core-i7-9700-processor-12m-cache?ref=w_cnt_lnd_cat_pc_6_15

[misty sparrow]

There's no way this was real people

[tacit quiver]

what is woot 😭

[idle nexus]

it's actually an Amazon company

lol

[tacit quiver]

weird

[misty sparrow]

I pressed the item listing for this controller as soon as it was available on Best Buy; best buy couldn't load it, and when it finally did and I got to click the button, it's gone

so there's no actual possibility that real people snagged this up

[idle nexus]

like you can sign into your prime account to get free shipping & stuff

[misty sparrow]

at least for 100% of the stock

[tacit quiver]

bestbuy more like trashbuy 😭🙏🙏🙏

[tacit quiver]

maybe ill give that a try

ty

[idle nexus]

Bestbuy has scratch & dent stores but I've never gotten anything there or even seen one

[misty sparrow]

Bestbuy at another store then

[tacit quiver]

woah woah woah why does the 9700 only 8c/8t

[idle nexus]

I bought a Samsung 43" commercial display & a Corsair 5000D from Woot! so if it's a scam now, it wasn't back then lol

isn't 10900K the only 10c/10t or something? I forget

[misty sparrow]

a 2TB SSD was being listed on woot for about $90

that was a pretty good deal

but it sold out

[proud jackal]

Buy my 13900k and apex

[idle nexus]

woot has decent stuf sometimes

[proud jackal]

[idle nexus]

heck they even had random GPUs during the crisis lol

[tacit quiver]

NO SELLING

[dusk knot]

[idle nexus]

for all those people out there dying to get into a 1050ti

[tacit quiver]

@proud jackal is it ddr4

[proud jackal]

No

[tacit quiver]

ok no deal

[idle nexus]

btw if you want more info lol https://www.woot.com/about?ref=w_ngf_abt

[tacit quiver]

my 1050ti was my first gpu ❤️ good memories

1050ti -> 1070 -> 3070

i didnt even need to upgrade my 1070 i just wanted to be irresponsible with money

[idle nexus]

not a fan of these cases tbh

[tacit quiver]

fake lian li

lian li a4 h2o best case ever

actually the new mac mini is the best case ever but the a4h2o is a close second

[idle nexus]

lol I kinda climbed 30 series ladder like that. I went 3060>3070>3080ti

[tacit quiver]

ok my lunch break is over byeeeee pls ping me with more advice for my server project

[idle nexus]

ah heck they had brand new 11600KFs for $120 but they're sold out

[unreal trail]

💀

[idle nexus]

PowerCooler 7900XT for $650 seems cheap-ish I think

they also have 4070ti for $650

[misty sparrow]

if we swapped places i probably would have bought that case because i am stupid and don't know anything about cases

[north crescent]

9th gen was first time Intel got i9 XX900 tier to consumers rather than prosumers. They also just upgraded core count from 6 (8700k) to 8 (9700k) and didnt have a 10 core CPU available for that architecture. So only way to keep 9900k and 9700k different way hyperthreading.

[idle nexus]

it looks like a kinda cool case mashed together with a giant UPS backup or something

oh I also bought an Amazon tablet from woot once

it was like dirt cheap

so I tried to put Android on it cuz it had that weird Amazon OS thing

long story short, I bricked it

it was a learning experie... a waste of time & money ya

[opaque sedge]

There were couple for 620 once

Thats how much 4070 supers costs…

I was malding

[idle nexus]

you know what I actually don't hate about 12vhpwr connections tho

[opaque sedge]

Having paid 600 for a 4070 super myself

[idle nexus]

I'm pretty sure no stupid PSU company is gonna do some proprietary crap way of connecting that cable to the PSU

actually I'd need to fact-check that but still

ig they could but aren't they implemented the same way on all PSUs?

[misty sparrow]

it could be worse

everything usb-c

[idle nexus]

I dunno I've never owned a PSU with 12vhpwr lol

I just used adapters to turn 8 PCIe 6+2s into two of them lol

[opaque sedge]

I think so too i have a be quiet cooler and the 12vhpwr cable and both ends are the same with no indicator for which goes where

[idle nexus]

good. proprietary PSU connections cost me like $64 in crappy PNY SSDs lol

[opaque sedge]

But there were early psus i believe that had their 12vhpwr cable connected to the pcie or vga port on the psu itself

[misty sparrow]

-# oh yeah i forgot PNY made SSDs

[idle nexus]

lol I burned two of them connected to the same SATA Cable

cuz I accidentally used an Enermax cable on a Thermaltake PSU

cuz they look identical

[opaque sedge]

Still think it might be brand dependent tho be quiet fortunately seems to sell cables that works with most of their psus

[idle nexus]

be quiet connections at least look pretty specific iirc

they're like wide & thin

the Enermax looks identical to the TT one but apparently they run the wires to different places lol

[opaque sedge]

Cuz apparently the 12vhpwr communicates or smth with the psu and considerings the psus are made by a specific brand in this case

[idle nexus]

ya the sense pins

there's like up to 4 of them or something

[opaque sedge]

Oh that weird horn looking thing

Ngl

[idle nexus]

& depending on how many are present, it affects PL I think

the like extra thing on one side of the connection. Opposite side of the clip I think

[opaque sedge]

The 12vhpwr end kinda looks like it would pass for a lego dragon head

[idle nexus]

lol I could see that

[opaque sedge]

Burns like at the very least

[idle nexus]

lol I got some 90 degree ones so the cable is really relaxed

no stress

[opaque sedge]

Yeah looks like having both ends be 12vhpwr is kinda new

[idle nexus]

ah heck ig so

I don't have a PSU with one so don't ask me lool

[opaque sedge]

Mine’s one of my firsts 💀

[idle nexus]

mine doesn't exist lol

[craggy shoal]

This is the second time I’ve seen the 12VHPWR be called a "PCIe 5.0" connector

Not at all for PCIe specifically like what

I’m missing something, right?

Like calling an SSD a hard drive

[opaque sedge]

Idk apparently it somehow makes the psu pcie 5 ready?

[idle nexus]

I think it just meets the spec or something

[velvet summit]

Whole town power outage

[idle nexus]

[north crescent]

I debated on getting one of those arzopa portable monitors tiktok won't shut up about and using dex with my 24U.

[tranquil pebble]

@wispy knot i just booted my computer from off and ever since turning memory context restore off my pc is actually booting faster 💀

Its def asus’s fault isnt it

[wispy knot]

Yeah probably lol

Asus likes to do their own "tweaks" out of the box to make your PC look faster than the other guy's, but it's not always stable

[mortal grail]

It's not

My Asus board boots faster now that I don't have a broken chip

The problem was a short

MCR is supposed to improve boot times if the PC is configured correctly

[wispy knot]

MCR also has a bug in AMD agesa that makes it fail to reboot sometimes

[mortal grail]

MCR off means you retrain every boot which implies a 60 second+ post time

Yes it does

[random osprey]

its a pretty good game. mods just make it even better or just completely changes the game

my most played single player game before i even touched mods

[safe cape]

• very cheap

[random osprey]

theres a reason why it was ported about 87 times

Skyrim is buggy

oh crap i forgot to get the humble bundle

@rancid juniper do u still have the humble link?

[safe cape]

with 120$ you could more legendary games

[nocturne flicker]

Nah man, the actual story is pretty mid. Very generic you are da chosen one do the chosen one thingy to win against the big bad.

[opaque sedge]

legends... the thing about legends is they're dead...-good morning night city guy from cyberpunk 2077

[safe cape]

+side quest missions

more story

the game is soo big

for playing the first time

[nocturne flicker]

Side quests are not the story. They serve as additional things to do on top of the main storyline

[opaque sedge]

…their fanbase cannot be helped it seems

[safe cape]

first time playing didnt care about the main story

just finished all side quests

was soo fun

cant do that in some games

[nocturne flicker]

And that is a critical problem with a main story if they don't interest players at the start

[safe cape]

but yeah you are right

[nocturne flicker]

The main story is supposed to drive your interest and side quests and side stories are supposed to fill out the main story as you go, not serve in place of the main story

[safe cape]

but vs souls games cant understand anything

[random osprey]

dont think its a problem of if the story captivates your or not, but more of a problem of you have a game that you can do whatever you want whenever you want when theres 10k+ things to do and the adhd kicks in for players

[nocturne flicker]

If find it problematic if a story is not capable of getting people to not just wander off and do other things to the point that the main storyline is considered secondary, regardless of the game being open world

[safe cape]

who told you the main story is bad

[nocturne flicker]

I did. It is mediocre and generic

I've played the games many times. It is a chronic Bethesda issue

[safe cape]

better than alot of modern games right now

[sinful blade]

Skyrim’s main quest sucks lmao

As someone who’s played it for literally 7k hours, I can safely say that

[nocturne flicker]

In my experience it is a problem they have with pretty much all of their games, even their earliest, DOS stuff.

They just don't know how to make their main storylines and questlines the star of the show

i come to a conclusion that ryzen 3 is dead

athlon is in the grave too

[idle nexus]

lol when was the last athlon released?

I'm trying to get a good score for this hwbot competition thing

[misty sparrow]

Absolutely scummy that it's only a limited time only theme

[rancid juniper]

dang probably 2021-22

[misty sparrow]

first time PS5 has had ANY themes and it's limited time

[idle nexus]

normally RAM runs like 1.1-1.55v on XMP

are there even XMPs that run 1.55?

[mortal grail]

It's so scummy but I'm here for it

[idle nexus]

maybe like 1.45 realistically

but rn I'm just shy of 2.0v

trying to force tCL to run at 28

[rancid juniper]

latest ryzen 3 is just the 8300g

[idle nexus]

oh you want a Ryzen 3

[rancid juniper]

no

[idle nexus]

there's a 4-core Epyc that iirc runs on AM5

yes

[idle nexus]

this is Ryzen 3 now https://www.amd.com/en/products/processors/server/epyc/4004-series/amd-epyc-4124p.html

[rancid juniper]

thats not epic

[idle nexus]

4c/4t Epyc that runs on AM5

[rancid juniper]

XD

[rancid juniper]

one moment

[wraith fern]

alr

all good 2tbs are around 150

that little CPU goes hard lol

[rancid juniper]

ngl i kinda want to try a 4 core cpu again

[idle nexus]

12100F is pretty meh

at least mine is lol

[rancid juniper]

14100f is probably the fastest quad core cpu

[wraith fern]

i want another mp600pro lpx but idk if it will fit under my gpu

lmao

[idle nexus]

lol that Epyc can do 6.5ghz on LN2

[rancid juniper]

😳

[idle nexus]

I don't think so

didn't Intel lockout the clockgen or something after 12th?

options are getting thin

[wraith fern]

well yea i wanted a 2tb for a reason

cuz then i'd have what, 4tb total

[nocturne flicker]

Not enough

Never enough

[idle nexus]

either that Epyc 4124P or 12600HX

[wraith fern]

should i get one of those things that plugs into the gpu slot

i forget the name

[rancid juniper]

🤔

[wraith fern]

u know what i mean

the thing linus got

[nocturne flicker]

You can get a single one, you don't need to get one of those silly 4+ conversion cards

I used one for a period and it was fine

[rancid juniper]

dang no 2TB for $80

L

[wraith fern]

i dont need a 2tb for 80

well idk if i need another ssd

my drives are getting full...

[idle nexus]

even my meh 12100F did 5.2ghz with memory at like 7200 ish lol

[misty sparrow]

I wouldn't need 2TB for $80 if i could figure out how to take a heatsink off one SSD and put it in another

[idle nexus]

gonna try again whenever I get around to delidding the poor little fella

[wraith fern]

this cannot be worth it

[opaque sedge]

@mortal grail should i get black myth wukong or complete my dark souls trilogy collection

[idle nexus]

the only thing locked on 12100F is System Agent Voltage

[rancid juniper]

12600hx not a true quad core imo

[mortal grail]

Monkey kinda cool

my poor 13900KS has been getting beaten down since like January 15th 2023. It's never played a game. It's never been on the internet lol

[wraith fern]

ill trade you

you can have my 12700k

i get your 13900ks

[idle nexus]

it's a laptop chip that somehow ended up compatible with LGA1700 lol

[mortal grail]

Idk

[rancid juniper]

wtf?

[idle nexus]

lol I doubt my 13900KS is stable

[wraith fern]

lol?

[mortal grail]

If you ask me then souls games are all very similar

[wraith fern]

what u do to it mane

[mortal grail]

Wukong is gud

[rancid juniper]

no way

[idle nexus]

like if Intel's own settings caused degradation, mine were for sure not better

[opaque sedge]

Imma take ur word kinda wanna play it before i get yt spoiled heavily

[rancid juniper]

THIS IS ACTUALLY RIDICULOUS

[nocturne flicker]

Though make sure your mobo's pcie slots are actually capable of doing x4 with a gpu installed if you use one

[mortal grail]

Go buy steam, refund if it sucks before 3 hours

[rancid juniper]

they be making weird ah chips

[opaque sedge]

Alr got spoiled on how ||the monkey isn’t actually wukong apparently somehow||

[wraith fern]

id buy that

lol

[rancid juniper]

yea

delidded it & basically treated it like this whenever I used it

They do crazy things with laptop cpus man

[rancid juniper]

especially gpus

[idle nexus]

129.474

that would be no.1 score if it actually gave me a score

no.1 score rn

lol I'm raising voltage by .01 increments now

it's very unstable

sorry I'll shut up about this

since I made everyone else do so apparently

lol

[mortal grail]

Try again

She can handle it capn

[idle nexus]

oh I'm trying lol

[mortal grail]

I need food

👏

[idle nexus]

heck windows 7 crashed on boot

I think my issue is with ring bus frequency oddly

I hate ring bus. All my Intel CPUs have either mediocre or crappy ring bus. I always followed the norm of ring bus = core multiplier -2

and I would curse my 10900K for needing so much voltage for 52x all-core

then one day I left ring multiplier down at like 45x & it ran 52x all-core like nothing

I'm like wait, what the heck

sorry I said I'd shut up

so uh, 37 minutes & it's no longer my or Britney Spears's birthday

i have no idea its a friends computer lol

[tranquil pebble]

got a new mug

[tacit quiver]

i was helping him fix a windows issue... most bizarre thing ive ever seen every time he starts the computer its like factory reset

so we're gonna wipe it and do a fresh install

the only cure for windows issues

[idle nexus]

definitely best cure imo

it's why I suffer thru OneDrive

[tacit quiver]

his last install was 2019 anyways its overdue

[idle nexus]

oh jeez

sfc /scannow takes like a month

[tacit quiver]

kids these days have it so easy with their powershell scripts to activate windows. don't have to deal with sketchy codes off ebay

[opaque sedge]

These rumors are getting out of hand, and the title doesn’t even make sense like how can it be faster than a xtx yet be on par with a 4080s which is on the same level as an xtx

[idle nexus]

back in my day, when your WindowsXP CD was too scratched, you didn't get to reinstall windows anymore

[opaque sedge]

Ohh wait

I’m blind

[tacit quiver]

does this run Mine Craft?

[opaque sedge]

It says rt performance

[velvet summit]

like, windows looks like it's factory reset every time?

[opaque sedge]

Man i need to sleep

[opaque sedge]

Nvm it was rt performance so the title does somewhat make sense 💀

[idle nexus]

tbh when I reinstall windows, I always wipe all the partitions on my drives entirely

[tacit quiver]

yeah, it logs him out of steam, discord, web browser, etc. every time he restarts

something about some microsoft login idek imma make him a local account when we do the reinstall

[opaque sedge]

But this sounds pretty cope ngl

[velvet summit]

interesting

[tranquil pebble]

yes this is what we're going to do

he only has a 512gb ssd + 3tb hdd... poor soul

jk jk

I think that's how my brother's setup is

he's using like 8700K & 1080ti

[opaque sedge]

@idle nexus to test ur knowledge in middle age can you answer how many incisor teeth a normal adult human has

[idle nexus]

I'm like dude can you like please let me upgrade your computer

which one is the incisor again

[opaque sedge]

The front sharp ones

Not pointy

Sharp

[idle nexus]

I think it depends where you... actually nvm, 8?

noooo

I got a score but it's too low

[opaque sedge]

What resolution did people play with the 1080ti during that generation?

[opaque sedge]

[tacit quiver]

tomorrow i might finally get around to redoing my computer, plan is:

before:
2TB Samsung 970 Evo SSD (Windows 11)
2TB Intel 660p SSD (Windows 11)
2TB Seagate Barracuda HDD (200GB Arch Linux partition, 200GB macOS High Sierra partition, 1600GB NTFS Windows mass storage)

after:
2TB Samsung 970 Evo SSD (Arch Linux)
2TB Intel 660p SSD (Windows 11)

cant decide if i want to leave the HDD in. its held in by a command strip rn... no longer need MacOS because I've got a MacBook. will daily drive Arch on my faster 970 Evo SSD and have my Windows install for those games I still play...

thank you for listening to my yap!

gn

[opaque sedge]

Interesting so 1440p became kinda mainstream later on?

[idle nexus]

eh not sure tbh. I wouldn't consider him an accurate representation of what most gamers do lol

he plays on a 60hz TV too lol

[tacit quiver]

1440p >

[idle nexus]

I'm tempted to try 1440p on some games one of these days

[tranquil pebble]

looked like a microwave oven for 0.1s ngl

[tacit quiver]

best buy tempted me bad with the $600 LG 27" 1440p OLED 240hz

[idle nexus]

my monitor is only 144hz tho so kinda unnecessary

[tacit quiver]

it does get quite hot

especially when playing tetris effect

[idle nexus]

technically, I don't think microwaves themselves actually generate heat

[tacit quiver]

yes that is correct

i wasnt thinking that deeply about it

you think my motherboard is trying to tell me something or this is a cry for help?

[opaque sedge]

Istg people looking forward to upcoming gpus are coping harder than bloodborne or souls fans

Btw is it just me or is most of the souls fandom the definition of copium?

[velvet summit]

considering current rt performance on amd compared to nvidia, honestly kinda believable

[idle nexus]

Narrator: it was at this moment that ggood003 realized he had no way to answer this question because he did not understand it. That made him feel old.

[velvet summit]

what else would they do

they dont got a 4th souls game

at least they didnt stop at 2

[opaque sedge]

Lose hope instead of keeping hope? Like in a multilevel elden ring catacomb you’ve been stuck at for the past three days

[nocturne flicker]

The whole premise of the games is 'just one more try I'll beat the boss this time', kinda have to be heavily into cope

half life fans 20 years after the last release of a full halflife game:

anyone playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2? cuz what your describing sounds like the mission in the swamp

heck the voltages my motherboard seemed to be recommending don't run

[opaque sedge]

But do u really think 4080s performance is possible at sub 500?

Guys i found jake paul

[idle nexus]

we should fight? lol can you elaborate?

[velvet summit]

is 8800xt pricing confirmed

[idle nexus]

imagine Intel's A580 is actually is good as everyone is hyping it up to be

I mean I hope it is but like

[nocturne flicker]

Seeing as how heavily Nvidia pads their margins, probably

[velvet summit]

lmao

[idle nexus]

just seems hard to believe ig

[opaque sedge]

Nope not at all but due to tariffs it would prolly be safe to assume it will be sub 6 hundies due to upcoming tariffs

[velvet summit]

especially with intel's recent... history of releases lmao

[opaque sedge]

Could be the same reason why the leaked b580 has a higher msrp in preparation for the newer standard for hardware or gpu pricing

Are you jake paul or smth 😭

[velvet summit]

7800xt is 499 msrp

i dont think it can really be considered sub 500 tbh

it's literally just 499 to just look as expensive, it's really just a $500 + tax card

[opaque sedge]

Sub 500 is more like 550

[velvet summit]

what

[opaque sedge]

Bruh

[velvet summit]

what are you typing

[opaque sedge]

Did i get my grammar wrong again

[velvet summit]

https://tenor.com/view/breaking-bad-funny-wtf-jesse-walter-white-gif-25245234

Gimme a sec

[nocturne flicker]

Sub means below

[velvet summit]

if you said sub 550 i would have accepted that lmao

[opaque sedge]

Ok

[velvet summit]

huh

interesting

[opaque sedge]

The fact that it kinda technically was working

[velvet summit]

7800xt was cheaper at launch than the 6800xt

6800xt had a msrp of 649

[opaque sedge]

Just 70bucks more expensive rn than the rx6800 i believe

The 6800xt is on par with the 4070 right?

[nocturne flicker]

The 6800xt came out during the gpu shortage iirc. Both AMD and Nvidia raised prices for those gpus

[opaque sedge]

Did nvidia ever drop the prices for the 40 series?

I wont contest that

Cuz it must be true

Cuz nvidia

[idle nexus]

lol but why would you want to?

[nocturne flicker]

Iirc the only card that had a msrp price drop was the 4060?

[velvet summit]

oh right

that makes sense

[opaque sedge]

Yeah this makes sense i just remembered the phrase subzero temps 💀

[velvet summit]

it was just nvidia that didnt really drop prices back down

[idle nexus]

that's the problem when you're the undisputed king, you don't have to

Get a 4090 and sleep it off

[velvet summit]

Tragic

Why do you seek animosity with them💀

[idle nexus]

probably nvidia executive bet another executive that they could turn out something underwhelming & people would still buy it anyway cuz it said nvidia on it? like when Porsche made the Panamera

yooo

what just

[misty sparrow]

I finally picked out a mouse

now I need to find a good 1440p monitor for my budget

but that's kinda hard

[idle nexus]

I just beat the top score of 129.670s by almost 2 seconds

[opaque sedge]

On what?

[idle nexus]

PYPrime 32b lol

[velvet summit]

why find a 1440p monitor when you can use a 720p30 monitor for your 4090

[misty sparrow]

i wish i had a 4090

[opaque sedge]

Overclocking again 😭

[misty sparrow]

but really i need a 1440p monitor

these deals are running out

[opaque sedge]

Ue10 be like

[misty sparrow]

ive been looking for days

[idle nexus]

use 4k monitor for 4090 come on now

[misty sparrow]

i'm not getting a 4090

lmao

im just going to get a 1440p monitor

for about $150 max

[idle nexus]

not with that attitude

Dell g2724d

On sale for 150 rn

I have it too

Its a decent no nonsense monitor

[mortal grail]

Xv275u P3 better

[idle nexus]

I have two Dell monitors. No complaints here

they're 27" but only 75hz

heckin cheapo

there's a Dell like outlet btw

[opaque sedge]

Oh miniled at sub 200

[idle nexus]

look it up

[opaque sedge]

Cant beat that

[dusk knot]

5090 now

[mortal grail]

Where

[idle nexus]

ig they're refurbs tho I dunno https://www.dell.com/en-us/dfh/lp/outlet?msockid=24c62e0765626eed28213b4e64dc6fbf

Game devs are never gonna let ray tracing at 4k with over 100 frames happen anyways…

[dusk knot]

Not yet. But that’s what all the big boys want now

[mortal grail]

I didn't say I want it

[dusk knot]

The 4090 is now a 1440p card

[opaque sedge]

Altho the people who want a 5090 prolly dont want it for gaming tbh

[mortal grail]

No????

4090 is still a fine 4K card

[dusk knot]

Now you do

[mortal grail]

Frankly the card is still bottlenecked in 1440p

5090 will be 4K gaming, no less

[idle nexus]

dis good? lol

[dusk knot]

In 2 years time, the 5090 will be for 1440p as well

[opaque sedge]

So it struggles to reach 100% util?

[mortal grail]

Not really

[mortal grail]

In a lot of titles yes

[idle nexus]

for $160? really? heck

[mortal grail]

G2724D is better

[opaque sedge]

Da heck even with a 9800x3d

[mortal grail]

And it's also dell

[mortal grail]

Uh huh

[dusk knot]

They said that for the 3090 🥱

[idle nexus]

eh?

[opaque sedge]

Wbt 4k?

[idle nexus]

oh that is G2724D

[misty sparrow]

one more thing

[mortal grail]

3090 started off at 4K 60, and to a large extent still is

[misty sparrow]

are VA panels inherently bad?

[mortal grail]

4090 is gpu bound at 4K in all but the lightest games

Here's a good way to look at cpu scaling

In 4K

A 9900K can run a 4090 easy

[dusk knot]

My 3080ti is as strong as a stock 3090 and I’m struggling at 1440

💀

[craggy shoal]

tf did I even do

I wasn't even here what

[mortal grail]

However in 1440p

[craggy shoal]

goober

[idle nexus]

QD-OLED 360hz is spensive

[mortal grail]

Not even 9800x3d

14900ks

285K

Can save it

[opaque sedge]

[mortal grail]

Too many games are still vastly cpu bound
