Holy moly intel battery life is insane
(this is 8th gen btw not the funny power hogs)
that thing better come in a gold plated case and have 3x-5x times the performance of the 4090

Anyone know of a stream deck brand that can be used wirelessly? Trying to clip one to my hip for easy access when playing VR
not sure if there are any other than through apps that elgato uses or other companies with similar apps for your phone
biggest downside to this is phone is touchpad vs physical buttons that stream decks use. onl way around is if you get like a 20 ft cable or something or if there is a way to make it wireless
"There's a couple of softwares that expose usb devices to a network, USBIP and VirtualHere being the most popular I could find, and I had to use VirtualHere because of the mac support. There's a bit of latency so i'm not sure how well it would work with a webcam or mic but theres an unlimited trial which supports 1 device at a time, so you could give it a try and see if it works for you (using VirtualHere, can't comment on USBIP). "
If you've got a spare ras pi laying around
But there's probably a better solution somewhere out there
Bundle a super long USB c cable with the headset cable maybe
Just tie it to the cord with cable ties
@mortal grail are the bridge's switches factory lubed?
Ah sound wasnt my big concern, lubed switches just feel better and less resistant lol
They feel nice and smooth
On mine, it's HE so, can't be like, super reliable here
I don't notice any scratchiness
It's extremely consistent
I don't see the problem here
Probably cuz i have an m atx mobo
The cable Is 16.5 mm
You might have better luck picking one that has enough play to fold instead
Yeah, or maybe if i can find a 10cm One
There's a brand on amazon
LINKUP
They're expensive but they do all shapes and sizes
Those are VERY good for folding
Just avoid folding at the slots
Fold in the middle
ill search It up RN
It's expensive but yeah if you're in a pinch, get a ruler out see if one of those will fold behind there
They're very good risers
They're often first to market for new spec
I gave em a can of beans

What's better on this list? Ryzen 5 8600G, ryzen 5 8400F, ryzen 5 7600x. Trying to build a system for mid range gaming but with capabilitie to upgrade if she ends up liking to game. Main ones we are going to play are modded minecraft, phas, stardew, gta 5, and probably some random games as well.
7600x
8600g has solid igpu but less cpu perf
so is 8400f, it's a 8600g with no igpu
4th option
Laptop all set up now
7500f
I'll set u up in a minute
Now I just gotta uh
Figure out how vim works
And install libreoffice and configure it
...
Ok maybe it's not all set up
set him up to experience win 11 24h2
I bended the cable a Little but It should work
Uhh
Is It supposed to be like that?
It dosent look very "inserted"
But It clicked and all
Man picking between jellyfin or plex is kinda tough
Flip a coin
On once side jellyfin does not have the greatest support for streaming like plex does
Plex is a lot simpler to setup, especially for access outside of home but you get a lot more customization with jellyfin
Sounds like you use Plex the easy way lol
Do you know what you're doing?
No? Pick Plex
Do you know basic networking? Jellyfin
I need to add Jellyfin to my Proxmox machine fr
Down side of plex is payment to skip intros
Yeah that’s why I recommend Jellyfin
Using those comical animal names again
Felix thinks Jellyfin is a Linux thing
Linus Torvalds is a penguin if you think about it
True
Man what
Can someone help me identify the mobo and psu in a prebuilt from new egg?
Hello @dry drift! 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.
post the prebuilt
the title of the store entry at least
it tells you right here
Ough
I have to respect it
You know what
That is
A brutally honest article
LOL
You can see exactly where they're making margins
Hey BT 5.3
That's kinda nice? Lol
Are they all good parts?
Def not
It's obviously cheap but it's honest about it so it should genuinely work
But that price is pretty meh for the spec
Think you get like a 7800XT class build for that price
4070 super is a stretch
4060 is very meh too
That too
Ik
AOACE Gaming PC Desktop INTEL Core i5 12400F 2.5 GHz, NVIDIA RTX 4060 8G DLSS 3, 32GB DDR4 RAM 3200MHz,1TB NVMe PCIe4.0, Wi-Fi6E, Game Design Office console,Sea View Room,Windows 11 Home 64-bit - Newegg.com
Should I get this instead?
that is automatic major respect from me personally
And like will the parts in there last? I’m not worried about them being able to run latest games I just want a reliable pc
That's at least a better pill to swallow but it's still pretty meh at best
Ok last? No
I think you'll be feeling that in 4 years for sure
Either of them?
You'd be much better off with a 6700xt pc
Radeon is way better value than GeForce, especially now
4060 is entry tier, unless you're committed long term to a game expect nothing more than a couple years after release
And that's for "staying relevant"
Like it's still a meh purchase
Really is these days
6700xt is basically the same price and wayyyyy better
B580 same deal but drivers still blegh
I’m prolly gonna game for like 2 years and then lay off and have to do schooling more
Compromising your needs just to have a 4060 instead of changing what you shop for is a painful lad, lol
I'd pick a different gpu
You can't expect rt from a 4060
It has a basic level vram count for a 1080p card
It's albeit power efficient, barely better than a 3060
Meanwhile a 6700xt is like 20-30% better for like $10 more
Lol
I’m not wanting to build a pc
And the parts in that build are like the same as they prebuilt
I can costumize a build on new egg?
Put this in perspective
About
3 days ago
We had a prebuilt deal in #tech-deals
Better specs than both PC's you posted
Rtx 3060
Can you guess the price
900$
$450
Is it a scam?
It's real. It's a refurbishment
The ssd is tiny
ssds are easy to upgrade
Yeah very easy
That's why I'm not really encouraging these prebuilts cos they just, don't compete like ones I've seen
even if you buy a prebuilt with 1tb storage, i'm 99% sure you're gonna need to upgrade that sooner rather than later 
I could endorse a 4060 but not for an $800 pc
i used up my 1tb i originally put on my pc in a week 💀
Like I might just get on of those 2 pre builds cuz I’ve been going back and forth between wanting to build one of buy and this build look OK for what I plan to do
If u find a better pc for less price on Amazon or new egg I’ll be willing to look at it
My honest opinion I think you'll find better in due time lad
Bacca posts those types of builds all the time in #tech-deals

Ok but if I get one which one should I get for 1080p 240hz gaming
For oldercgames**
Older games
Like Fortnite mineceaft Roblox etc
Can't answer that one until a deal pops up sorry
Could be literally anything as long as the price is right
I'm off
Goodnight 
and dies
Was bored I'll have a new video out shortly
Theses next few vids are special they are taking a while cause there’s a lot of footage. Gonna try and release a video before that one.
My upload schedule is going to get screwed up but it’s gonna be worth it
good morning everyone !!

New RTX 40 ITX GPU just dropped Almost two years after launch, there’s a new custom RTX 4070. ZEPHYR is not a commonly known brand.

nah
Oh boy, just what we wanted. Slower Arrow Lake 
Gonna be 12100f perf 
even if its slow im just glad intel hasn't neglected the i3 type lineup yet
8 cores tho

i just hope intel has actual patches for gaming perf regression
hello is there anybody here i can talk to about my newegg order status
@digital thunder
falling with style
intel truly a game company
patching all them faults
Sudden death
thank you
ketchup
😔
its bc new years is here
jp
I am kind of stuck after reading lots of comments about monitors. Many say to go for 4k 144hz rather than 1440p 240hz, lets say I main the oled monitor, would it really be mad to have the 4k monitor on the side? I am not sure what to do.
The reason why I could not get the LG Dual mode was because it would have been 660 CAD + 28% (BP + TAX). Which would have been 850 CAD
my budget for 1-3 monitors is 750 CAD max soo 😭
also can you @ the mod which has that monitor. I want to see their thoughts on it
the 4K oled?
yup
@proud jackal
also jp read the messages aboveee
The highest resolution monitor should be your main
is there any reason for that? I seen people get an 1440p man for gaming and 4k for office and content consumption
can I put a 34 inch on a side monitor
You could...
You're over thinking it
i Want to have a monitor that will last me
when i upgrade my system
i feel like 1440p 240hz will be useless in 1-2 years time
Not a chance
With how unoptimized games are coming out, even 1440p 240hz at max settings is going to be hard
When you're done, you can give the new guy your view on your monitor. My bad 😔 @proud jackal
he feels so stressed im ngl
just read from here
@proud jackal
Your experience
My monitor is 4k240 or 1080p480
He's busy. But from his late comments, he loves it
I just wanted to see if I should just wait and try to find it for cheaper or get the 34 inch 1440p
Get that, and then get a cheaper 27 inch 1440p monitor on the side
i have such a severe fomo issue
It's your first setup. Understandable
and the thing is since I am young like I can't put much into it once I go off into uni and stufff
my thought right now is, that 4k 240hz monitor is defnitely not going to be used to its max capabillity for at least 5-7 years
do i shell out the extra, hope to find a cheaper one if i get lucky, or simply get a nice ultrawide and be afraid I cannot experience games at 4k as tech evolves
i know tech always gets better and better, so my mindset if get big jumps of tech that will last me a while. So lets say macbooks I would have bought the m1 pro as that was a big jump from the rpevious intel. I would not have boughten any of the m2,m3,m4 pro chips
Have you ever had a 1440p monitor before?
You're just a university student atm. No need to go all out
Get the ultra wide and call it day....
Upgrade later
@mortal grail might be the strimer after all, finally got around to undoing enough cable management to remove it and the 5v rail stabilized a lot
Ultrawide oled right?
no I am on a 1080p 60 hertz monitor lol
Yes
debating bnetween pullling the plug on the
34GS95QE-W
or wait until I can find a cheaper
1440p will be a huge jump from that lol and you’ll also have the perfect amt of frames
32GS95UE-B
I'm starting to realize that custom cables of any sort are just not worth it ever
think I'll just stick to my stock cables
my issue is future proof kind off. With computer components its stupid but with monitors it makes sense to me
if you go 4k you're committing to spending a lot more on your pc for the lifetime of that monitor
just keep that in mind
How many monitors are u getting?
if you're okay with that then you're okay with that
ideally 2 to 3, my budget is 750 CAD and I get them for really cheap, (auctions are amazing in canada)
yesterday
the dual mode lg
I bid on it but it reached 660 CAD + 28% (BP + tax) so it amounted to 850 CAD
which was way above my budget
And what kind of pc?
Specs?
need 80 series minimum for high refresh 4k
could upgrade my gpu for free, I have a very nice 3090 asus strix. could upgrade to a 7900xtx or 4080 super for an extra 100-200 CAD
i am fine with using ai and raytracing, dotn need to be raw
If I could have gotten the 32 inch 4k for 580 + 28% CAD I would have and just stick to one monitor
Oh cmon
even with dlss
Unless you have a 4090 I wouldn't bother getting the monitor
unless you run like dlss performance but at that point the 4k is kinda moot
Giving up a lot of visual experience with that
i Mean even if I upgrade my gpu in the next couple of years to maybe the next flagship?
it's fine if you want 4k just know you're committing to spending a lot on your gpu
Even so, pretty sure there will be better dual mode monitors in a few years
@full shoal do u have a tech store nearby? U could go to one and compare the resolutions on there and see if u find 1440p satisfactory
would you think the 34GS95QE-W
is a good trade off for me?
we have canada computers which is great, they dotn have any oleds up on display
so what should I get instead 😭
theo just said no...
No 4k
Fairly high end if its oled
ahhhh, so why did you buy it if you do not mind me asking?
Honestly dude @full shoal u’ll love the perfect balance of frames and pixels from 1440p than just a ton of pixels and lower frames in 4k
1440p 240hz OLED will blow your mind. Trust me @full shoal
I have a 4090, I play a lot of single player games and I play competitive fps
literally me lmao, except the previous flagship
U have a 60hz…

Even ur gpu is going past those frames with v sync off u are not seeing them
yup but same games
okay guys I will bite the gyat damn bullet you guys sold me
Id wait
Yeah u will enjoy 1440p higher refresh rates way more than more pixels and the same paltry frames
buttt.... one mroe predicament
wait to get one of those or wait to get a new monitor
And still kinda expensive
Pretty sure there’s just two
Gyat…
if I can get a 4k side monitor for the same price as a 1440p side monitor, what do I do. I can probably get an ips 1440p 240hz or a VA/IPS 4k 144hz
jp said meh
…
....?
I made lots of bad descisions on my pc so I dont want to repreat it, bear with me 
what...why?
Are u planning on working on anything that u will need higher visual quality for?
Such as video editing and stuff
mostly will be movies, office if needed, consumption, and maybe if I want to experience 4k on story games then yeah?
Dude… one monitor one 1440p 240hz oled monitor will be more more more times 1000 more than enough for all those
lemme see what the auction got
U wont need a separate monitor for a separate task like wth
Its like ground vehicles
If u have some work
That meeds a truck
Then a truck will be useful to have
And a regular economy car to just get around
But if u dont need a truck u could just get a car thats economical and somewhat fun too
what do you think theo
I think I wanna go home
r u at work
im working tmrw
4 hours before midnight, my birthday...
…
1440p 
Dude look for a 1440p high refresh rate oled
U could prolly get one new with ur budget without having to go thru bids
my budget is tight as hell bruh
750 CAD
…thats like 520usd
thoughts on this
Its awesome
And i’ll be frank
If u can only get that one monitor with ur budget
Dont bother tryna to fit in a second one
Oh goddammit
Did u win this or nah?
And also pretty sure the alienware one is the top tier one
Actually yk what lemme dm you
That ok?
yeah but I want to hear jp and other mods they helping alot
im ngl most severes would just troll
severs*
servers
jeez
but sure dm me
Thing is ur not listening to them and they seem to have given up

need to go out.
do that
jp if i win the broken oled do u want it
ill ship it for free
lol
u back?
No. I'm at the gym
still at the gum
am back
sooo
I got my bid removed
there is a chance imight get the 34 inch for cheap
knock on wood
yeah most likely bid done soon, i can get this as a secondsary as well look
yeah
basically a host site where liquidation sites
Hm
post their items and u bid on it
thoughts on this

whats ur thoughts theo\
i dont see oled 💀
I DONT HAVE THE FUNDSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
lmao
but other then that, good choice....?

nah but these better then gigabyte check rtings

i dotn get gifs send it in words lol

WHO NEED SMOR VRAM WHEN YOU HAVE DLSS 
Hey I got one too
Well I have the boog75
Mine weighs a million pounds but it’s beautiful
got my christmas hat on 
Extremely minimal install
@dusk knot
I wonder if I can get my ram usage below 1GB
💀
ME
windows go bye bye
JPPP COMMME
wait I NEED u
auction almost
DONE
WAIITTT
@dusk knot

helppppppp
Stalker 2 using 24gb ram lol 16gb is dead already 
Headless Linux

HELPPPP MEEEEE PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
HELPPPPPPPPPPPPP
25 MINUTS HELP
@proud jackal
@proud jackal
10 minutes.
@full shoal whatever has the higher refresh and lowest response time
same response 1 is 360hz and one is 240hz
What’s the bigger screen and what’s the screen type
Lg
^
then it is settles
JP
i will be
going on general 1
and recording the biddign war
on the LG and the acer IPS
@mortal grail did you have any trouble installing the firmware? im having a really difficult time (HE version) (sorry to ping you twice rip)
wait have we agreed that I should get the acer one as a side
Acer Nitro XV271U M3bmiiprx
I think you're pinging the wrong person lol
anyways is this good
@dusk knot
is the acer a good pairing
5 minutes I feel cooked
Not find the upgrade device !
until what?
what could possibly be so important at 8:05 pm on a random Monday before the end of the year?
I didn't no
It should detect it first no?
I got on the divinikey discord and im asking there
dude would have been muted in a lot of servers by now
It didnt detect it at all
It's amazing JP hasn't put the hammer down yet
Well i mean the board works
Lmfao those strimers seem to cause all your problems
Via recognizes it as the bridge75 (cant use it cus he lol but)
It should detect first
I am concerned because on divinkey i bought the plus version that offered sc switches
It was weird
Saved me 10 bucks lol
But now im concerned that might be the issue
Can I even go any lower than 1.2GB
Feels like it's impossible
At least without crippling core functionality
is the monitor still worth it at 630 CAd
I think one of my rasp pi's is running at less than 5% memory usage or so
NEOFETCH
Opening a single browser tab brings the memory usage up to 1.8GB
Calm down. No need to ping me so often..I'm not available atm
You can talk to the others
I looked at this and thought “someone made a cancer awareness distro?”
that isn’t a joke, I actually thought that

Ah yeah I've seen that website
Confusing af
Balou do you have rgb at all
And a wireless dongle
that is so lovely
There's your problem
Many prefer it
lmao
Lol
Anyway do ya like it
i do
Think objectively then
It's an oh well moment but it's still good
Haha
You need to use the other tutorials for the non-he
idc bout wireless thankfullt
If you have a dongle it's not HE
like i said, the wireless doesnt work
but it technically is there
lmao
HAHA WAT
divinikey moment
i will lmao
this is tomfoolery at its utmost peak
if it makes you feel better I was gifted a redragon k556 pro
at this point id just take princess switches 😭
didn’t need a new keyboard but
it doesnt but aye good for you mate 
I don’t know if it’s good or bad but I’m throwing it out there
its a keyboard
granted nothing special
but still a keyboard
better than my redragon i just replaced lol
I already had a Razer huntsman v1 that I’ve used since 2020 so
no problems worked good
On a side note
Found out the w7900 has full dp2.1
I long thought it was 56gbps but it's not
It's 77gbps
So it's the only gpu that can run 4K 240hz natively


imagine if rtx5000 series comes out and they still use DisplayPort 1.4
They're dead in the water 
The 4090 barely makes 4K 120 natively
Make a much faster gpu on 1.4 they'd be cooked for sure
All that bandwidth and no way to use it natively would be insane
is 5090 out yet
yes
5090 is like the Hyundai Ioniq 5, it’s touted as a very great piece of equipment but can’t go the distance because of DP1.4
-# great car my ass, it can’t go more than 303miles on a full charge
1gb vram usage
5090 will save us all
No
I feel like you said this about the 4090
consumer mentality ong
The 5090 will be a 1440p card by the end of next year
You should show that picture to people asking about more vram
Show them what 4 years ago looks like

The 4090 ain't even this yet but alright
Lolol
Kidding
But well see another scenario where it struggles to hit 4k 60fps
Did you see the new 285K microcode may have made the cpu slower again
shhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Intel bad
Shooting itself in the foot
Still yet to find one that makes genuine sense
Yeah
hi felix
Henlo
I now need to wait to find a monitor :(( its weird how so many people wanted it
this is very rare though
i track auctions
and this should hav sold for at least 200 bucks less
Jp why does your name say eight days until 5000 series
is the time just eight days?
that has een there for a long time lmao
@sage sluice you must have a coiled keeb cable… right?
It should come with one, it whatever one it comes with kinda sucks as a coiled cable lmao
I don't think mine did
I mean, $15 I got a good one off amazon anyway
It has a cable but pretty sure it's not coiled or aviator plug
I got one too. A glorious one
I don’t think they make the best keyboard but their coiled cables are quality
@wraith fern
I swapped to a new brand, much better
Glorious was my old pick, the connections on both cables were flakey, expensive too lol
I now use epomaker
It's not as like
Mine wasn’t that much + my mom paid for it
Perks of Christmas is I can get expensive stuff I usually wouldn’t buy
so actually turns out its something entirely different, they rebranded the sc into being clacky switches versus HE and i bought it right when that was changing
now i feel misled from getting HE 😭
i assumed they were the he switches since they werent princess ultra, turns out theyre an entirely seperate line
I keep it tucked away unplugged rn lol
I bought these years ago tho they weren't all that cheap back then
it is an actual plus tho
so at least i know what i got lol
and fortunately i actually really like the clacky
had to chat with people their discord
I figured it may have been
is what it is, still a really nice keyboard lol
