general-chat

[fresh timber]

So I gave up

[mortal grail]

Yes you want hdmi

[fresh timber]

Why

I can’t do hdmi on my monitor

[mortal grail]

Idk why they just are like that

[fresh timber]

It limits to 144hz then

[mortal grail]

Hdmi has HDCP

That's probably why

[fresh timber]

We need dp capture cards!!

[mortal grail]

Not really

HDMI 2.1 covers enough bandwidth for most use cases

[fresh timber]

How ima get my high refresh and capture

[mortal grail]

Just get a 2.1 card then

Or do what I'm doing

[fresh timber]

And when ur monitors didn’t have hdmi 2.1

[mortal grail]

2.0 card + splitter

[fresh timber]

But have the better displayport

[mortal grail]

You can convert DP to HDMI but not backwards

[fresh timber]

Or am I miss understanding how things work

[mortal grail]

So you're SOL

[fresh timber]

Does dp to hdmi introduce any challenges

[mortal grail]

2.0 does 1440p 120 capture if you have one

You wouldn't do 144 anyway cos of vblank mismatching

[fresh timber]

O yeah..I could get dp from you to capture card

But not dp out capture card to monitor

[mortal grail]

gpu to dp splitter

dp splitter to monitor

And to capture card

DP to hdmi

[fresh timber]

This is why I stay on single pc setup when I have two

[frigid stag]

dual pc is op

[mortal grail]

No you just haven't equipped yourself properly for double

Proper double pc setup has tons of switches

[fresh timber]

Cause my monitor wants to be trash

[mortal grail]

I have like, 8 in my setup

Only 3 monitors

[frigid stag]

how do fortnite kids set it up 💀

[fresh timber]

The way I have my 2nd pc setup, I don’t need more than one monitor and set of keeb/mouse

[mortal grail]

4 if you include the sensor panel

[frigid stag]

it cant be that hard if they can do it

[fresh timber]

My 2nd is controlled through moonlight entirely

:))

[frigid stag]

every fn streamer has dual pc pretty much

[mortal grail]

Put it this way, if you're good with minecraft redstone, you can work out dual pc

[frigid stag]

streaming pc and gaming px

[mortal grail]

[frigid stag]

i sucked at redstone

[mortal grail]

It's literally that level of complicated tho

[frigid stag]

apart from basic stuff

[mortal grail]

I need fiber everywhere, lots of switches, splitters

I have a whole drawer half full of all of that

[fresh timber]

Fiber?

[mortal grail]

If you don't do splitters and switches, it's actual cancer

Yes fiber display cables

[fresh timber]

O

[mortal grail]

Long transmission needs fiber

5m/15ft

[fresh timber]

wtf ru doing

[mortal grail]

Wym

[fresh timber]

How big is ur setup

[mortal grail]

I'm running dual pc man

two desks

[fresh timber]

Oo

Mines is all in one desk

[mortal grail]

I've cut it down to almost one desk

I have a monitor arm off the second with a series S hidden underneath

Nothing else

[fresh timber]

If I get the capture card to work my setup won’t change

[mortal grail]

You need splitters and switches to make this stuff work man

It's the BEST way to do it

Hands down

[fresh timber]

The gpu in my 2nd gets to happily record and stuff ❤️ only change I’ll need to have is a mic

Excuse for another mic

[mortal grail]

I need to get my mic fixed up on the gaming pc, otherwise I'd need another switch to use the shure

I use the shure for everything else

Could use the modmic...

[fresh timber]

My mic sounds 50x better on obs than it does on discord lol

[mortal grail]

Discord has terrible compression tho we all know that

Literally everything

And they are even reducing the upload limit

They have no real intent of improving

[fresh timber]

My mom thinks I have pink eye

[sage sluice]

https://tenor.com/view/pink-eye-eyeball-coming-for-you-gif-5460606

[frigid stag]

just ugly logo now

[fresh timber]

One of my eyes is red

Lel

[mortal grail]

The only interesting thing about twitter rn is that the hosting sites for twitter are getting funnier and funnier

I can't post the site names here tho

[frigid stag]

LMAO

[mortal grail]

[frigid stag]

IK

girl cox 💀

LMFAO

[mortal grail]

Yeah that's the new one

[fresh timber]

Cox Internet

I love cox

[frigid stag]

[mortal grail]

Think I will bother with a splitter

That's the one part that annoyed me was the latency passthrough

[fresh timber]

Pass through latency

[mortal grail]

It's 0 for the screen but not the audio

[fresh timber]

As long as I don’t get latency on my main display I’m happy

[mortal grail]

Mmmmm

[mortal grail]

Idk I don't like even a 100ms of latency

[fresh timber]

I like pure Ms response times

[sage sluice]

no longer can you search for twitter videos on google, since instead you'll be searching for x videos and quite frankly thats a no no 🥹

[mortal grail]

Sound is as annoying as visual

Yeah I think I want a splitter, that'll be more likely to fix my issue

[sage sluice]

slowly chipping away at userbenchmark popping up on google for "misinformation"

[mortal grail]

Splitter instead of a switch, swap out the 4K120 switch I have below to parse my output between my capture and daily

That'll actually make almost everything auto besides 1 button for console capture

[fresh timber]

My ps5

I should get a usb capture for it

[mortal grail]

Use the card you already have

[sage sluice]

i need a new capture card tbh, the one i have doesnt let me stream seperately to a monitor and to my pc at the same time

[fresh timber]

Mhh I could just keep it

[mortal grail]

That's what a switch is for

Or splitter

Depending how you prefer to do it

[sage sluice]

i probably shouldve read back a few messages before i said anything lmao

[mortal grail]

Yeah I get the feeling I should give a crash course on this sometime

Hmmmm

A splitter

A monitor arm

[sage sluice]

id be estudious of your teachings

[mortal grail]

And maybe a couple auto switches

[mortal grail]

I think that's what I'm missing from being fully automatic

[frigid stag]

Ergotron monitor arms 🔛 🔝

Expensive but worth

[sage sluice]

king from where

[mortal grail]

Well thing is I have a triple one

I might be able to just use that

[fresh timber]

O block

[frigid stag]

Oh that’s a lot of monitors

[fresh timber]

I have two screens cause poor

[mortal grail]

I used to do triple yeah

[frigid stag]

I have one screen

[mortal grail]

I went up to big tv because it's simply plain better

[fresh timber]

My 2nd display is only 165hz 😦

[frigid stag]

Could’ve had 2 but tv was too big to keep

[sage sluice]

i have 2 screens cus i just bought my second one a week ago

[mortal grail]

I have 0 regrets going to a big 4K

Absolutely none

It fixed SOOOO many issues

Triple screen is cancer

[sage sluice]

mine is 180hz 1080p, its a bit awkward compared to my 1440p but i like it

[mortal grail]

But I still have the mounts

[fresh timber]

Poor

[sage sluice]

Dirty aa setup

[fresh timber]

Blow up the switch

[frigid stag]

Better than mine

[sage sluice]

It already does when i try to play 1080p

[fresh timber]

Mines looks ass on my main display

[sage sluice]

my room looks all nice and decorated until you look at my desk

i need to fix it up tbh

put some stuff on the wall behind it

the one picture aint doing it lol

[fresh timber]

Photos of me

Duh

[sage sluice]

ill put it on the 20 dollar amazon shelves i still have sitting in the box waiting for me to drill them in

i need more physical book copies for my shelves, i only have like 30-40 and its like not enough to make it look complete

i have (legally obtained 🤫) most my books on phone

i lost a lot of my books from when i was younger

[mortal grail]

Didn't adjust the lights tho

Also forgot to open the sensor panel software

[fresh timber]

Too cramp

I hate it

[proud jackal]

Wish I had a nice PC set up

[sage sluice]

what mic ya got

[sage sluice]

overrated imo

[mortal grail]

Sm7b

[sage sluice]

idc if its a drywall desk a stool and a gt710 with a laptop ripped in half to use the display, a setup is a setup

[sage sluice]

i want to get a shure pretty badly tbh

ive heard good things from the brand

[mortal grail]

Lemme readjust everything I'll do a better pic

[icy ore]

[sage sluice]

how do you feel about the SM58?

[sage sluice]

https://tenor.com/view/furby-hydraulicpress-kokichiouma-gif-10757600790819835822

[mortal grail]

The wallpaper decided to do a funny, alr

Oh cos it was detecting the other display is why

[opaque sedge]

That aint a monitor

Thats a damn television

[fresh timber]

I hate that 2nd screen

[sage sluice]

i hate that horrible bridge 75

worst keyboard on the market

wait i just realized you have more than one mouse

[mortal grail]

Which is why I'm debating a 2nd arm

I can make it more flush

[fresh timber]

That other display is useless

You break ur neck to use it

[mortal grail]

It's not

Huh?

You would

It's fine for me

[fresh timber]

How big is ur neck

Holy

Owl

[mortal grail]

How big are your legs

I'm normal sized

[fresh timber]

I get a head ache when I keep moving between displays

lol

[mortal grail]

Ok that's a you problem

[sage sluice]

me when chairs do this thing called swiveling

bro does not use his waist

[mortal grail]

That second desk I can pop out a 2nd hidden keyboard for 2nd pc multitasking if I need to, when the kvm isn't enough

I really like the way it is rn

[sage sluice]

you just made me feel poor with that statement LMAO

[mortal grail]

But I want a better arm

[sage sluice]

i feel so invalidated

[mortal grail]

Should make you feel better I don't show this off very often

Last time I posted my setup was like 2 years ago lmao

[sage sluice]

its cool fr but gawd damn

[fresh timber]

Nope

I just realized

[sage sluice]

that setup is hella engineered

optimized even

[fresh timber]

The 5090 is ment to be like a titan rtx ish

Just they named it 5090

[mortal grail]

I'm gonna add another screen I think for work

[sage sluice]

4090 is the titan model of the 4000 series

[mortal grail]

It'll also hide the drama behind the 2nd monitor

[sage sluice]

3090 is the titan of the 3000 series

[fresh timber]

The 5090 price isn’t bad if you view it as a titan

Look

[sage sluice]

titan is the titan model of the 2000 series

[fresh timber]

Excatly!

This new view makes me see the 5090 as less over priced

It’s just a titan

[sage sluice]

get like a heating pad

[mortal grail]

For my feet?

[sage sluice]

those are great for sore spots and a stretch

feet, back, whatever

[mortal grail]

That's actually a great idea

Maybe I'll do that later, I need to clean up the under desk cable management tbh

It's like, routed but I want to make the huge stem of a cable trunk disappear

OOOO

[sage sluice]

if you get those things you can stick onto the bottom of your desk i forget the name of them, those are pretty nice for management

[mortal grail]

I know what I can do

[mortal grail]

No no I'll get one of those wall mounted cable gutters

Nice and white, flush

Ooooooo

[sage sluice]

bros gonna have the heated cable management foot rest

[mortal grail]

YESSS

I am a genius

[elfin mural]

i haz moners for ram

[sage sluice]

oo wait youre cooking

[fresh timber]

Men only want one thing

[elfin mural]

imma actually upgrade now

32gb soon

[fresh timber]

LEBROENNNN

[mortal grail]

My end of year project was my sim and console setup

Now I can make the last of the jank of my pc setup disappear

This is gonna look excellent

[sage sluice]

send me the pic when its all fixed up fr

[mortal grail]

And with the new switches and splitters, one button streaming

Omfg

[sage sluice]

dude is going to become surgically attached to his desk with an automatic food despenser and coffee maker at this rate

[mortal grail]

I mean yeah the only things left on my bucket list at that point would be a herman miller and a personal maid

My chair is really comfy tho, idk if I wanna swap tbh

It doesn't have reddit karma but I have no issues with it unlike any other chair

[sage sluice]

look at some steelcase chairs, honestly a really good competitor v herman miller

at a price that isnt stupid

used market for chairs is interesting

[mortal grail]

I have looked at steelcase

[sage sluice]

its one of the more frequented markets, not as lucrative as it used to be

[mortal grail]

People are too smart here tho

Cheap premium chairs are very very rare

Or at least, one's worth buying

[sage sluice]

for sure

i regret getting the hyken tbh

its pretty bad lmao

[mortal grail]

But like my current one is super comfy anyway

If I was changing it'd be for internet points

Not for comfort lol

So I say bucket list...meh, I could go without tbh

[sage sluice]

i think theo was the one who told me i should get a hyken when my budget was 300, by far the worst decision i couldve made rip

[fresh timber]

Maximum pulse

[sage sluice]

a comfy chair is a comfy chair

if anything you need some damn leg room under than desk lol

[mortal grail]

Old

So 2 switches, 1 splitter, maybe an arm, and a cable channel

[sage sluice]

thought id mention it for any future recommendations, after a couple months using it its pretty rough to the point i grab a pillow to sit on, i probably would stay away from recommending it even for people on a budget, which sucks because it looks nice and has some quality features for the price. the mesh is just that bad

[mortal grail]

How the hell big do channels get

Wtf

I need more than this

I need like

30

Is the cable channel dream cooked

[sage sluice]

felix is deep into the research rn

its like reading a autobiography

[mortal grail]

I need a 4cm wide channel dude

That's 1.7 inches for the americans

My trunk big

Ooooo

This works

I can use 2 if necessary

[sinful blade]

Hey who wants a 6600 for $109? It’s not that bad

[mortal grail]

326 shipping

[sinful blade]

shhhh, don’t tell anyone

[sage sluice]

chingwingbangdaupooskimbobtaifu is that you?

also getting pc parts from random sellers on aliexpress goes hard

[mortal grail]

No this is clearly

[sage sluice]

oh hey its me

yeah the shipping fee is just cus i live in antarctica

but i put a penguin in the box to even out the price

[sinful blade]

Is a 5700xt worth a buy?

[sage sluice]

depends

if its fitty, absolutely

if it costs my left kidney, no

realistically id pay for the lower of 200 used

emphasized lower of

8 gigs of vram could also be an issue

[sinful blade]

I don’t play new games

[sage sluice]

then yeah its an easy buy

if you can get it for a good price

[sinful blade]

Whats the cheapest gpu should I look for to get a solid average 90~ frames in d2 on high 1080p?

[frigid stag]

Vram isn’t an issue with 6600

It can’t even use it

It’s like adding more vram on a gtx 1080, it’s already fine enough

[sinful blade]

I got a solid 80 on a 1080 back a while ago

[frigid stag]

Looks cpu bound

No windows 7 wtf

[mortal grail]

Isn't D2 like as old as win 7

Tf

[misty sparrow]

Win 10 actually

[frigid stag]

It’s like 2018

So its somewhat recent ish

[misty sparrow]

2015

[misty sparrow]

I’d say 2015

[sage sluice]

best pc for d2: dont play d2

[mortal grail]

No it had win 7 support

Had

[misty sparrow]

I wonder why the minimum requirements has a more recent cpu generation than the recommended

[mortal grail]

Updates

New API

Some games upcycle

[misty sparrow]

Hm

[mortal grail]

Then bin the old stuff

Yes but things like anti cheat have been over the years dictating win7 support removal

8.1 will soon follow

Then 10

Rip 10

Computer has to be pretty damn dated for 8.1 yeah

[sinful blade]

So what should I aim for

I am never looking new

Got it, looking for a 6400

This is my go to chart

Time to look for a Vega 64

[mortal grail]

use the 1440p one

[sinful blade]

[mortal grail]

The 1080p one is compressed from cpu bottlenecks lol

[sinful blade]

I don’t play in 1440p though

[mortal grail]

Do you want accurate performance numbers or not

I'm not telling you to play 1440p

I'm saying use the 1440p chart

Lol

[sinful blade]

Yeah I’ll go grab it

O

I read your thing wrong

[mortal grail]

All good

[sinful blade]

1440p ultra?

[sage sluice]

do you prefer the Hardware Unboxed benchmarks or Tom's

[mortal grail]

Yeo

Yep

Yeo

[sinful blade]

Whichever is more trustworthy

[mortal grail]

About 5 unboxed tbh

[mortal grail]

Yeah that one is quite decent tbh

No graph is perfect, but that one is pretty close imo

[sinful blade]

Looks like wife is getting a solid uplift after all

@mortal grail Alibaba has a $221 yeston 6700xt

[mortal grail]

Is it just 221

And is the seller known for selling thousands of them

Anything less you'd want someone who can vet the seller

[sinful blade]

Nada
I’ll move to the 6650xt

Apparently it doesn’t exist for less than $250

Unfortunate

[misty sparrow]

I really want to see an updated version with RTX 5000 series cards soon

[mortal grail]

Take every 40 series entry and add about 10-15%

There you go

[misty sparrow]

oh wow not much then

[mortal grail]

Yep, 5080 leaked on 3dm

It's basically just 4080S with a higher power limit

[misty sparrow]

I guess there was a bigger jump from 3070 to 4070 than 4070 to 5070

[mortal grail]

Which you can just flash a 4080S with a higher tdp to

[sinful blade]

Could get a new b570 for $229

[mortal grail]

Cos it's the same node

[mortal grail]

Honestly not bad if you stick to the mainstream

Otherwise it's copium

[sinful blade]

Wym

[mortal grail]

And do NOT use it with less than a 6 core from the last 3 years

[mortal grail]

Games outside of mainstream suck

[sinful blade]

F

[mortal grail]

Stuttery, bad performance

[sinful blade]

So no b570

[mortal grail]

<1st hand tested

[misty sparrow]

Node?

What’s a node

[mortal grail]

Both use TSMC's N4

We haven't had a refresh node since maxwell

700/900 series

[misty sparrow]

hmm

[mortal grail]

They basically took ada

Jammed new tensors into it

Then GDDR7

[misty sparrow]

and gave it more AI stuff right?

[mortal grail]

And moar powuh

Ye

The tensors are the ai stuff

[misty sparrow]

wow that’s not really great

[dusk knot]

AI AI AI

[sage sluice]

ai is the selling point of the 5000 series

[misty sparrow]

I can’t wait for 4070 to drop in price so it’s affordable

[sage sluice]

in other words, not great

[mortal grail]

If you flash a higher power vbios to the 40 card counterpart you can make up for most of the missing performance of the 50 card

Takes like

5 minutes

[sage sluice]

i find it funny nvidia gave people less reason to upgrade giving the dlss improvements to 4000 series considering "ai" is like the only real reason to upgrade lmao

[mortal grail]

DLSS 4 and reflex 2 for the 100th time, the BEST reasons for 50 series

And the best parts 50 series is not softlocking

MFG is a waste of time and the only thing people miss

[sage sluice]

i feel like 5000 series is walking so 6000 has a chance to run

[mortal grail]

In 2 years MFG will likely be good and then 50 series starts to make more sense

[sage sluice]

not betting any horses tho

[mortal grail]

60 series has way more going for it

Full process node, more ai accelerated learning (This stuff is multiplicative), better IPC and lower power

And now a larger bit bus on the higher end

As well as bad publicity for 8gb vram (Again)

[proud jackal]

[mortal grail]

60 series could cost a bit more, or be priced somewhat similarly, but it'll have way better QoL changes than 50 series

50 series is really mild lmao

[sage sluice]

if they put 8gb vram in the 6060 i swear to god they deserve to burn

[dusk knot]

AI

[mortal grail]

Yeah the 5060 is pushing it tbh

[proud jackal]

By the time 60 series is out we will be on the barter system

[sage sluice]

the 4060 was pushing it

[mortal grail]

It's not that 8gb isn't usable, but we shouldn't be committing to another few years of it

Nah 4060 was fine

[proud jackal]

I will trade two cows

[sage sluice]

pushing, not struggling

[mortal grail]

Now we're actually starting to get to the stage where 8gb will become a slow issue

[dusk knot]

Someone else's cows

[mortal grail]

60% of the market is on 8gb or less remember this

[sage sluice]

that is true

[mortal grail]

Cos 60 class hasn't moved on yet

[sweet phoenix]

This

[mortal grail]

But therein is the issue

It needs to move on soon

[sweet phoenix]

Why is anyone buying a card that's STILL on par with an 8 year old flagship with less vram

(New anyways)

[sage sluice]

game optimization is just in a hellscape, which im pretty sure yall already know lmao, vram is gonna be liquid gold at this rate

[mortal grail]

Yeah the time is passing soon

[sweet phoenix]

Nvidia is just greedy as all ____

[mortal grail]

Tbh, if nvidia manages a repeat of the software improvements this gen *into next, leave it to the big gpu brands to come up with more ways to multiplicate that

It's slop but it'd work

[sweet phoenix]

The issue is, so many people love nvidia more than they do their own lives and will continue to buy mediocre or bad products no matter what

[mortal grail]

RDNA 3 I think was when AMD really hit their stride imo

It just feels so, normal

Lol

[sweet phoenix]

Nvidia has no incentive to make well priced products when they're making great sales as is

[sage sluice]

its not even just nvidia, half the monopolies on earth are ran by brand loyalty

[mortal grail]

My XTX makes me feel like my 90 card was embarrassing

💀

[sweet phoenix]

I'm hoping in 4-6 years we have igpus keeping up with current gen

[mortal grail]

#tech-industry-news

It's about to happen

APU go brrrr

[sage sluice]

apple, mcdonalds, the list goes on, price doesnt need to match quality if you got a name people will flock to and people to tell you to flock to it

[sweet phoenix]

Holy crap

[mortal grail]

Ikr

I want one

I was pining for that 40CU sku, it finally happened

[sinful blade]

@sweet phoenix @mortal grail which gpu do you both think I should get? Used.

[sweet phoenix]

That varies

[mortal grail]

5700XT

[sage sluice]

gt 710

[sweet phoenix]

Way too many choices

[mortal grail]

Actually you have a 1080 right

[sweet phoenix]

1080/ti, 5700/xt, 6700xt, 3060 ti and 2080 ti would be my first choices

[sinful blade]

Below $200, but powerful enough to run d2 at 90 fps

[mortal grail]

Yeah

[sinful blade]

Had*

[mortal grail]

Oh a 5700XT will do 90fps

Hell a 1080 does

[sweet phoenix]

D2 is pretty light

[mortal grail]

(Mine did that's why I know)

[sweet phoenix]

Considering it runs on a ps4, a 1080 is more than enough lol

[sinful blade]

(Felix come back to d2)

So 5700xt is the cheapest?

[sweet phoenix]

Prob

[sinful blade]

Lookin for that then

[mortal grail]

It's often near $120

Really solid imo

[sinful blade]

Tf is a 5700 DD???

[mortal grail]

Destiny Dedition

Idk

[sinful blade]

[mortal grail]

5700 can be flashed to run like an XT almost

[sinful blade]

“Only 5700 on the market that comes with 2000mhz driver limit on the core clock and 1960mhz stock clock”

[sweet phoenix]

I thought it was exactly like an xt

I thought they had the exact same specs just diff vbios

[mortal grail]

I wasn't into pc's at the time, you may be right

[sweet phoenix]

Neither was i lmao

[mortal grail]

I just know it's close

Lol

[sweet phoenix]

Vega 56 flashed to 64 was worse than a vega 64

[sage sluice]

neither was i

[sinful blade]

Quick, do some research

[mortal grail]

Anyway I'm hungry

Byeee

[sinful blade]

Save me money

[sweet phoenix]

If there is a difference it's 2% or less

And I'm 95.27% sure it's identical

[sage sluice]

honestly felix talks about pcs like hes been there since nam

[sweet phoenix]

Lmao

[sage sluice]

the mix of real knowledge and confidence sells it

[sinful blade]

A lot of posts I’m seeing is that the 5700xt runs hot

[sweet phoenix]

Ehh

Some models

Like mech or asus dual

[sinful blade]

Msi

[sweet phoenix]

But a 5700xt is a 5700xt

It's also very power efficient

[sinful blade]

Yeah true

[sweet phoenix]

Thats why it was such a great mining card

[sinful blade]

So my PSU wannabe-bomb won’t set it off?

[sweet phoenix]

It mines slightly worse than a 3060 ti/3070 at less than 3/4 the wattage

[sweet phoenix]

What psu is it again?

[fresh timber]

a750

[proud jackal]

Is 5090 out yet

[sweet phoenix]

Used

[sinful blade]

NSX 750w gold

[sweet phoenix]

Yes theo

[proud jackal]

[sweet phoenix]

Ill buy it for you, just send me $2200 on venmo

[proud jackal]

What's your @

[sage sluice]

thats a discount

[sweet phoenix]

Hesitantly i say it should be ok

[dusk knot]

👀

[fresh timber]

[e-mail]

[sweet phoenix]

Wat

[fresh timber]

did i guess it right

oh god i sent an email and for some reason it shows my real name

its over

[velvet summit]

exposed

[sage sluice]

thanks google

i hate you

[fresh timber]

thats why i used my username as my name

[sage sluice]

i just changed it to #

hoping that works

it appears to have not

bacca can dox me fr and i wouldnt be able to do anything about it 😭

although tbf a lot of people have my name since its incredibly generic

[fresh timber]

google me and u find alot

i need to figure out how i hide that stuff

[sage sluice]

i literally cant find anything with my full name

i googled it and an article about a mentally ill man ||killing his children|| popped up

[fresh timber]

if u know what ur looking for u find my stuff

but nothing has my face

well one does but it was when i was a kid and its not obvious its me

[sage sluice]

specifically a conspiracy theorist

[sage sluice]

im very discrete about what i put on the internet

everything i use is through fake names and the like, my mom would be the only who might put my information online

even then she hardly uses social media

[sinful blade]

@sweet phoenix

[sage sluice]

arent you sweet

sarcasm moment

[sinful blade]

What is a sarcasm

[sage sluice]

a sarcasm is a type of chasm

that you can fall into

[sinful blade]

Today I’m in Barcelona, Spain to figure out the meaning of sarcasm

all i can imagine is them not being able to see the ground or know when to pull their chute

i dont like imagining

[mortal grail]

Wouldn't be very far

If you go too far down it gets hotter instead of colder

[sage sluice]

geology class flashbacks

i doubt theyre getting that far through the crust lol

[mortal grail]

They teach that now?

Wth

[sage sluice]

it was like 7th grade for me lol

learned all about the earth and funni space rocks

the sun and yada yada

[mortal grail]

The funni rock is cold

[sage sluice]

the funni rock is cold until you reach the mantle

[mortal grail]

I imagine standing on funni rock would feel like standing on a pile of sand

[sage sluice]

i imagine standing on the beach is what it would feel like standing on a pile of sand

[mortal grail]

Omfg in the future, space vandalism will involve kicking rocks until they're dust

Get charged with asteroid damage of the 1st degree

[sage sluice]

space national parks to preserve ecosystems in the galaxy

[mortal grail]

Dude our future generations will eventually learn how to kick rocks on a space level

[sage sluice]

also who tf kicking rocks in space lmao

[mortal grail]

How cool is that

[mortal grail]

Idk

Some dudes in the future

[sage sluice]

tbf we have those now

[mortal grail]

Probably intoxicated

[sage sluice]

just fewer of them

[mortal grail]

NASA astronauts bounce off rocks it's not the same

[sage sluice]

dude those mfs gonna forget to put an oxygen tank on lmao

[mortal grail]

"Hehehehehe, hehehe-" PSSSSSSHHHH

"Dude cody's all frozen check him out"

[sage sluice]

youre telling me there isnt one dude in the sixed crewed landings who hasnt kicked a space rock

[mortal grail]

Fair

Also wtf the question

[sage sluice]

wtf the question?

[mortal grail]

Ye wtf the question

Odd topic for a pc server

[sage sluice]

theres been plenty stranger topics here lol

[mortal grail]

Like the new twitter hosting website?

[sage sluice]

conversations like these

[sinful blade]

Does 5700g support pcie 4?

[mortal grail]

LMAO

[mortal grail]

Yes pretty sure

[sage sluice]

honestly you can just look up any word in the search bar and youre bound to find an interesting conversation from it

i just looked up horseradish for example

[mortal grail]

Oh god vadic

Yeah not going there

LOL

[sage sluice]

did bro have a controversy?

[mortal grail]

Oooo yeah

We're not gonna talk about it

[sage sluice]

if youre fine dming it i am curious lol

if that is

[mortal grail]

Tbh no

Let sleeping dogs lie on that one

[sinful blade]

Tbf, this gif is escanor is peak

@mortal grail I’m gettin a second 512gb nvme
Gonna cost me $20

[mortal grail]

Ok

[sage sluice]

all good

[leaden pewter]

till i get my hands on new 50 series i decided to play with my gpu pl and drop it by a solid 30% and maintain same perf to -3% fps but drastically wonderful temps after some good tests in benchmarks and games welcome to the 3080

fans are max but i have headphones so noise isnt issue at all since i also have osciallating fan going at full blast

[sweet phoenix]

Hehehehehehe

(I didn't even see and im not going to look, not my business)

[sage sluice]

your full name was there too so by process of elimination we are both in the clear lmao

[sweet phoenix]

Hmmmmmm

[mortal grail]

Difference between 70% and 100% fan probably isn't a whole lot on that card so might be worth doing imo

[sweet phoenix]

Lmao you right

[mortal grail]

If not to make the card fans last longer

On top of noise

[sage sluice]

i need to set fan curves tbh

[leaden pewter]

noise not issue at all, i cant hear it but the gpu is meant to last generally around till 50 series

[mortal grail]

I regulate mine to run pretty conservatively

[mental yoke]

hi

[mortal grail]

Cos fans are rated for so many cycles

[sinful blade]

The upgrades so far

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WGvQGJ

[sage sluice]

3080 will definitely last you past 50 if you dont care about everything coming out

[sweet phoenix]

The 980 ti can still run most games

[sinful blade]

The PSU and gpu are not brand accurate

[sweet phoenix]

If the 3080 is obsolete 4 years after launch I'd cry

[mortal grail]

Just food for thought, if you gain 4 degrees in exchange for 30% more fan life it's worth is all

Tentatively speaking

Coming from a former 3080 owner here

[sinful blade]

Anything else I should upgrade on here?

[mortal grail]

Lol

[sage sluice]

and then youve got the select few who think their 4090's are outdated and bin them

[mortal grail]

No I'm not going to

Theo might

[sage sluice]

ooOOooOOo throw your 4090 in your trash ooOOooOooOOoo send me your address so i can pick it up ooOooOOOoOOoOo

[dusk knot]

I don't see these 4080 super panic listings you mentioned. Huh. @mortal grail

[mortal grail]

https://tenor.com/view/futurama-future-gif-4767605

[mental yoke]

hello

[mortal grail]

Reminded me of this guy

[sage sluice]

hello

[mortal grail]

Keep looking they'll be there, getting sniped

Completed listing will show you them

[rancid juniper]

my friend asked me some dual monitor recommendations and gave me this link:https://www.amazon.com/Kado-Dual-Monitor-Setup-Built/dp/B0D86WMWWF?

[sage sluice]

that is

horrid

😭

[rancid juniper]

😂

[sage sluice]

despicable even

[rancid juniper]

i was thinking about giving him a 1440p main monitor + vertical monitor instead

[mortal grail]

I love that it says 2 pack

[rancid juniper]

Double the monitor
Double the regret

WHAT IN DA HECK?

[mortal grail]

Like "Here, we have a value pack for our horrible monitor if you want more! Ahaha!~"

[sage sluice]

Only 2 pack im getting is 2 bourbons to forget the pain of my awful purchase

[rancid juniper]

when the newegg listing seems to good to be true cuz that price is dummy low

[leaden pewter]

thank you, tested it with a max of 5C increase

[rancid juniper]

i dont even know what IPASON is

[elfin mural]

colorful

[fresh timber]

foxy

[mortal grail]

Sounds about right yeah, and should be wayyyyy quieter

[elfin mural]

IPASON is colorful

[fresh timber]

foxy

do u play fnaf

[rancid juniper]

oh?

[elfin mural]

i don't play fnaf

[fresh timber]

o

wow

[rancid juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/deepfriedwoomy-gif-20893284

[leaden pewter]

again sound wasnt issue but fan cycles was more of a concern cause ive had this for a good while

[mortal grail]

Ye

Just a second benefit is all

[elfin mural]

i did play fnaf as a child but that's loooong ago

[mortal grail]

Adds to creature comforts

[velvet summit]

in fairness, it's rated for so many cycles that even the next owner of the gpu wouldnt have to likely replace the fans (at least if the fans have good bearings, and not like sleeve bearings)
though at the same time it doesnt really make sense to run fans full blast to keep the die at 50 lmao

[mortal grail]

And then it dies

Cos ratings are tentative

Lol

[velvet summit]

true

[mortal grail]

The less you stress parts at their limits the far better they'll last

This is standard engineering principles

[leaden pewter]

once im done with 3080 my goal is to strip it into wall art casing, along side my old steel series prime mouse (R6 black ice edition)

ok this is crazy wtf 💀 they actually left all the trash and unwashed dishes and just left??? https://youtube.com/shorts/WoI-906E634

also enough food to feed a homeless shelter on god

[fresh timber]

chat

i find it crazy that 1000 gpus are still usable in 2025

i have a friend that still uses a 1060 to this day and games on it

[frigid stag]

Yeah they still work

[sage sluice]

All that wasted food aside even if i was a billionaire id be doing the damn dishes so the minimum wage cleaner doesnt have to

[frigid stag]

I still have my 980 somewhere it works fine

Just not on the newer ray tracing forced bs games

[fresh timber]

tbh

depending on what u game u dont need more than a 1080ti

[sage sluice]

Unless they getting paid by the hour

[fresh timber]

tbh if im rich only thing id maybe want is a professional cheif to cook for me

other days ill pop in a pizza and call it a day

[sage sluice]

Honestly id get a professional cook to help me learn how to make some cool stuff

[fresh timber]

if my house is big enough, hire cleaners to come once a week

if ur house is big enough cleaners is a must tbh

u aint cleaning that massive house all by ur self

[sage sluice]

I honestly dont get the point of a house bigger than what you can accomodate

[fresh timber]

rich

[sage sluice]

Other than like if you want some fancy ass private workout gyms or theatres or whatever

[fresh timber]

tbh if i had a family, wife kids, id want something big so everyone can have their own space and not feel crampt, but not too big where its just empty space

[sage sluice]

If i was rich id buy up houses and lease them for actual affordable prices in areas where theyre needed

[fresh timber]

give me three decent sized bedrooms, a basement to be my game room, maybe a mechanical room for my homelab, a nice living room with nice sound systen, and a nice sized garage so i can park cars, maybe work on them and not be crampt

[sage sluice]

Sounds nice

[still sun]

Oooh are we talking dream houses?

[fresh timber]

yuh

my dream home is.. reasonable

[still sun]

Hmm, 1860s greek revival, 25 acres, 3 bed 3 bath, and a 6 car garage, and outbuilding as a shop.

[fresh timber]

also i want fiber and cat6a ran to every room

fiber for 10gig access, 6a for normal rj45 devices

[velvet summit]

or you could just work at a restaurant or whatever

or cooking school, fairly cheap as well, and you get to eat the food you cook for each day as well

[upper hawk]

Competition is going to be tough to buy the 5090

[sage sluice]

My dream house would be something poking out a bit into the woods a quarter mile from any city, maybe in germany or any of those norse countries, and something a bit smaller but still cozy like this

And i would probably want a private helicopter landing pad LMAO

[fresh timber]

id want something more modern but secluded but not a 10min car ride away from society

and i want minumal gigabit internet

id litterly dig the fiber line up

just for the internet

[sage sluice]

True, doing some volunteering in a soup kitchen could be a good way to help people out

[velvet summit]

that's crazy for a generation that is only a relatively small increase
i would understand if it was like another 30 series level of improvement launch but for 50 series? nahhhhh

[still sun]

I know of places with the house I want but not the land lol

[leaden pewter]

I've got simpler ideas and it's to weld shipping containers together since they are $2500 a piece for here and make great structures

[fresh timber]

soup

[velvet summit]

i'm at soup

[sage sluice]

Most the houses ive grown up in have been a good drive away from a lot of stuff, so i find areas like that comforting

[fresh timber]

tbh if i had a massive yard id figure out how it can make me money, maybe build some homes and rent them for a good price to unforuntante people

[still sun]

The welder to do that would probably cost more than the containers

[worn wave]

They actually don't lol. By the time you insulation they're tiny inside. You don't want a used one bc it'll rust out, so they start at more like $5k each.

[velvet summit]

might not be able to do that due to laws/code
or it's an uphill battle

[sage sluice]

Oop

[velvet summit]

i know someone who tried to get an extra garage built and it took forever for it to be approved, like 2 years or smth

i dont even remember why it took that long

[upper hawk]

First one in line is guranteed a card

[still sun]

Yeah live in an area with no HOA lol

[upper hawk]

And 4090s are over 2k or out of stock

[fresh timber]

i wouldnt buy land their then

[sage sluice]

If i was rich most of it would probably just sit in savings while i try and figure my life out and try to live a healthy safe life

[fresh timber]

i want to make affordable homes, if im rich ill even take a monthly loss and use the rent money to help the familys

[velvet summit]

it wasnt even a HOA since those arent common here, it was the city denying it due to like, probably fire code or smth

[sage sluice]

You can offset those losses with investments as well

[fresh timber]

you pay me $1000 a month for a nice home, and all that money is put in a trust or something where it goes to home repairs, if you find your self in money troubles, etc etc

[sage sluice]

Id want the homes i help to be self sustainable

[worn wave]

Adding onto this, since they're metal insulation is a pain and they don't breathe at all so condensation is a real issue

[fresh timber]

they on their own for utilitys, ill provide internet

[sage sluice]

You cant really just give lower income people a house with taxes and the like, so being able to keep a cheap but nice roof over peoples head would sound miles superior to me

[fresh timber]

im rich

i can afford it

like if im making millions a year or something why not

i can afford a 500k home and renting it for dirt cheap to a unforutnate family

creates a good relationship with the family

[velvet summit]

https://youtube.com/shorts/BjwElt1vQN4
if they had something like this near me i'd go there every day i swear

[sage sluice]

I know there are those old cruise ships and the like that get transformed into shelters for people, id try and do stuff like that

[fresh timber]

how happy would u be making 60k a year and a family, and some rich guy just made ur life a hella lot easier giving u a dreamhome for cheap

aint no proerty tax if u dont own the building

[sage sluice]

Id love to do that for people, i think id try and moreso be a branch into helping them become self sustainable

[leaden pewter]

ive got learning and maintence for rust isnt hard

[sage sluice]

Cheap rent, let them build up income

Until they can self sustain and i can get new people in

Honestly there are so many people that just need that little break to catch up and build a life

[fresh timber]

giving them a break is the best part

[velvet summit]

red bull does it again wtf https://youtube.com/shorts/X1OA_FPQ8l0

absolutely crazy work

[fresh timber]

Put the rent money into a trust that you give them back when they move out

Biggest suprise

But it’s a trust so they can’t go silly with it

[sage sluice]

goal: help people without them turning into addicts

im curious how id go about finding people

putting cheap listings online wouldnt exactly attract only people in need

theres such a gray area too, thered be points where youre picking between who you think needs help more

theres only so many houses you can buy

[fresh timber]

Ooo easily

Alot of states do some sorta affordable housing stuff

With vouchers and such

They are on a list

[velvet summit]

bro is sampling with the youtube player goddamn LMFAO https://youtube.com/shorts/BueUSQ01RY8

[sage sluice]

id feel wrong picking who i think deserves help

its kind of like playing god at a certain point

idk its weird

if i had the funni green paper id also probably invest a lot more into diseases and disabilities that i take an interest/distaste in, big ones being alzheimers and dementia related degradation and research on VSS

[fresh timber]

Build enough homes to take most

Target family’s

People with kids

So the kids don’t suffer from parents choices or misfortunes

[icy ore]

If you could you pay random people 100k a year adjusting with inflation just cause

I would, second you get cocky tho or start violating set rules. No more money

build me a giant ass castle

[devout forum]

NGL
The 3070 Ti having 8 gigs is a crime

[fair onyx]

You can mod it to 16GB, which would make it a lot more useful

[devout forum]

But that's materials, tools and knowledge I don't have kek

[sage sluice]

wait the 3070 ti has 8 gigs of vram?

[devout forum]

Yeah

[sage sluice]

how have i never known that

[fresh timber]

Iv seen it benched mark and beat previous scores

[sage sluice]

thats

terrifying

[devout forum]

That's nGreedAI for you in a nutshell

[fair onyx]

My friend mods them for pretty affordable, though I am not sure you would be interested in a 2x VRAM mod lol

[devout forum]

Shipping back and forth would probably cost more than the whole mod

[fair onyx]

Where are you located?

[devout forum]

Hungary

[fresh timber]

3060 should have stayed at 12gb, 3060ti 12, 3070 12, 3070ti 16, 3080 16

[fair onyx]

Oh yikes, yeah

Also, nice. My best friend lives in Hungary

[devout forum]

Oh yes

The 3080 is 10 gigs

[fair onyx]

12GB 3060ti and 3070 would have been a lot slower

[devout forum]

3080ti goes to 12

Let that sink in

You get 12 gigs with a 3080 Ti

[fair onyx]

12GB is slower than 8GB by a good bit, so the 3060ti and 3070 having 8GB is for that reason

[dusk knot]

What's the true resale value of a 4080 super?

[devout forum]

Except it makes the card effectively unusable

[devout forum]

Whatever people pay for one honestly

[fair onyx]

That is true, yeah

[dusk knot]

:/

[fresh timber]

They could have made it faster

[devout forum]

So "it's faster this way" is irrelevant if the card is effectively useless because of not enough VRAM

[fresh timber]

3070 at 1440p, have fun with these newer games, even 12gb is looking like it’s going to cut it close

[fair onyx]

It doesn't work that way. They would have needed to give it a much bigger memory bus, of which GDDR6 base doesn't support

I am NOT defending NVIDIA, I am just stating why they did it that way, or how they justify it

[devout forum]

That's the one

[fresh timber]

Gddr6x or what ever they call it

[devout forum]

They KNEW what they were doing

[fresh timber]

Did they have to use gddr6

[devout forum]

And they made up justifications after the fact

[fair onyx]

GDDR6 and 6X both have 384 bit bus limits

[fresh timber]

If amd can give you usable vram, so can nvidia

[devout forum]

30 series was always designed to be obsolete quickly

It was blatantly obvious from the moment it came out

[sage sluice]

20 bucks take it or leave it

[fair onyx]

AMD uses some really cool magic with their VRAM. Its really quite cool

[dusk knot]

😭

[fair onyx]

3000 series, 4000 series, and 5000 series

They all have way too little VRAM

[sage sluice]

its called giving you enough of it

[devout forum]

Unless it's a 90 SKU

Then you're fine

Remember
The more you spend, the more you save

Or was it the more you pay us the more you save?

[fair onyx]

I meant with their speed. They use GDDR6 base overclocked to 6x speeds, and it works somehow. That makes it so their lower bit busses are actually not as slow as NVIDIA's

[devout forum]

Or the more you buy?

I legit lost the plot

[sage sluice]

that phrase legitimately makes me annoyed

[fair onyx]

Even then, still pretty limited

For gaming they are fine, but for rendering or AI or anything like that, they are still pretty severely gimped

[sage sluice]

like get your head out your ass and admit youre a greedy coorperate relying on stockholders

[devout forum]

But marketing tho!

nGreedAI is spending more on influencer marketing than engineering at this point

[fair onyx]

The 5080 having 16GB is gonna be another severe gimp

[fresh timber]

what im hearing is, nvidia could do the same but choose to skimp on vram

[sage sluice]

marketing is one of the worst thing to come to the free market

[devout forum]

It's 100% a conscious choice

[fair onyx]

That much I am actually not sure about. I have no full understanding on whatever special sauce AMD uses for it

[fresh timber]

yeah i get that, but im just hearing nvidia excuses

lol

[sage sluice]

nvidia boutta pull out its apple cap and charge you 200 bucks to jump from 8 gigs vram to 12 gigs

[fair onyx]

But yeah, the 3090, 4090, and 5090 are still all VRAM limited for usefulness. Pretty severely actually. Its gross, but its expected at this point

[sage sluice]

oh wait they already do that

[fresh timber]

i would have went 3070ti over 7700xt if they gave vram

[sage sluice]

i would have went 7900 gre over- oh wait

[fair onyx]

The 7900XTX had my eye over my 3090, but unfortunately its useless outside of gaming, or with anything that needs RT

[sage sluice]

its funny how the 4070 super is like the only 4000 series with somewhat value yet it still finds ways to be an inferior product

[mortal grail]

*RT or AI

If you've used that thing for workstation you wouldn't say that

Blender too

[fair onyx]

RT, or rendering, or AI, or simulations, or anything like that

[mortal grail]

3d modelling, editing, engineering, all fine

[fair onyx]

One of my closest friends has one, and hes a driver dev. He makes his own driver mods for it, and even then its still really useless

[sage sluice]

you say useless despite the fact 7000 series amd is honestly pretty in line with 3000 series ray capabilities

[fair onyx]

yeah, those are fine

[fresh timber]

fine not the best

[fair onyx]

It absolutely is not-

[mortal grail]

And that's like half the workstation usecases

[fresh timber]

i think a 4060ti raytraces better than my 7700xt

😦

[sinful blade]

I love that my case has the RGB header broken off

[sage sluice]

oh a 4060 raytraces better than my gre lmao

[fresh timber]

Lmfao

amd raytracing is a joke

thats why i wanna get nvgredia

[fair onyx]

AMD's 7xxx series is basically useless for RT lmao

[fresh timber]

try real raytracing

[sage sluice]

i mean it is genuinely usable, its just not good in comparison to nvidia

[fresh timber]

what im geting at, amd sucks nvidia bettter

[fair onyx]

Workstation doesn't mean what people usually think it does

What, would you suggest an A6000 or something? Which is $7,000, and half the speed of a 7900XTX? But its better cause its "workstation" class, with actually good support unlike AMD's cards?

A 3090 runs laps around an A6000 for that kind of stuff

[sage sluice]

like i can still pull extreme ray tracing (not path) ultra settings 1440p cyberpunk with upscaling for about 50-60 fps when a 4070 super would get about 80 to 90 fps for comparison (dont quote me on specifics)
