Cause using alot of data doesn’t make you crazy

wise wigeon
fresh timber
#

In my opinion after 2tb is when your using a crazy amount

#

Unless bigger family

wise wigeon
#

1.2tb a week is wild I’m pretty sure my family uses less than that in a month bro

frigid stag
#

I have 100gb on iCloud kekw

fresh timber
#

Your family probably doesn’t have like 3 devices in their room that can consume a lot of data at the same time

Almost full though I need to make a nas

There is always some stream going

wise wigeon

#

O

fresh timber
#

To be fair streaming isn’t as intensive as maxing out your isp connection all day

surreal comet
#

Sir I don't watch my Internet usage all i do is play melee

wise wigeon
fresh timber
#

Theirs a diffrence

#

I’m consistently uploading and downloading

#

It’s not comparable

#

A simple offsite backup can use that much

#

The 321 method

wise wigeon
#

Ik what you’re saying but

fresh timber
#

I can show you crazy if you want kek, wanna see somebody who can use 100tb in a month

wise wigeon
#

It’s still rather large consumption

fresh timber
#

Yeah large for sure

#

Crazy? Not so much if you look at others and the use case

wise wigeon
fresh timber
#

If I was just streaming.. yeah that’s crazy

fresh timber
wise wigeon
#

Comparatively it’s still a crap ton

fresh timber
#

Yeah it will never be less

#

Yeah if we compare for sure

#

Your family prob doesn’t really do much data backup, game downloads, hosting game servers

#

Also.. 5 out of 7???

#

How do you survive

#

And how big is that house

Nah but Wegg is fine. Except for all the crappy 3rd party sellers who are obviously scamming people with their prices

Corn Electronics coming to sell you 5 year old parts for 3x MSRP from launch

Seems more like a site moderation issue at that point but I dunno I don't run websites for a living i install pools

Nobody beats amazon at 3th party scam sellers kekw

surreal comet

So called "gaming PC" with no GPU at 700 dollars

The only way Corn Electronics would be acceptable would be if they sent out gpus made out of corn. I'd respect the scam then

misty sparrow
#

or gave free cornbread with every order

surreal comet
#

Then it's art

misty sparrow
#

the case is always white and on the non-glass side there's a corncob taped on with gray tape

Or they glue a single corn kernel somewhere on the item and they leave a note in box that just says We also sent you a corn kernel

The AMD Radeon RX 9070 video card is shipping alongside the RX 9070 XT and surprised us with its efficiency. The power-to-performance ratio is strong on the RX 9070 non-XT, seemingly finding a "sweet spot" of balance between power consumption and the output. The 9070 and 907...

for this reason

sage sluice
frigid stag
#

And some 20 series cards being defective

low rivet
#

The only reason the 5090 is a fire hazard is because Nvidia didn't bother engineering a better cable solution and also decided to hide their declining peformance gains by upping the power

hoary zodiac
#

it's not just that

#

there was also no load balancing on the gpu

wise wigeon

True

Nvidia has a lot of fans

# limber crane consumers gotta consume

Well you know I’d be fine if it were 100% consumers but it’ll be random stores grabbing up stock to sell higher which is dumb. I understand it being top of the line right now but woowee

hoary zodiac
#

see what we should do is

limber crane
#

you should hate the people paying scalpers more than the scalpers

hoary zodiac
#

they enable them

wise wigeon

oh i thought you said "if i WAS a scalper"

sage sluice
raven kiln
#

Truth!

hoary zodiac
#

scalpers and people enabling scalpers are just as bad

limber crane
hoary zodiac
#

We should send Alfred after the scalpers

raven kiln
#

You can go back and forth all night

limber crane
#

without people enabling scalpers, scalpers wouldnt exist

sage sluice

Id feel such an evil pride if i got to see scalpers getting scammed

I used to sleep on the floor next to the closet if that counts

frigid stag

Nothing weird

Alright guys im returning to the closet wish me luck

frigid stag

frigid stag

mortal grail

It's on a loop

frigid stag

nocturne flicker

junior willow
mortal grail
#

A3 is nicer than most cases I've used

#

And I say this despite nearly 0 cable routes

frigid stag
#

Ah

hoary zodiac
#

I mean

velvet summit
#

wait wtf why do yall got the tiniest switches i've ever seen

fresh timber
hoary zodiac
#

Lian Li has pretty nice case designs in general

junior willow
#

It even came with a whole manual on how to build a pc and all the configs it could have, I'm a lian li fan forever now

fresh timber
#

11mins and it just hits 81c on the cpu

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

it also helps that they're releasing a lot of competitively priced cases recently too

velvet summit
mortal grail
unreal trail
mortal grail
#

I have used like half the damn o11 cases in existence

hoary zodiac
#

I'd rather buy that than a Hyte

mortal grail
#

Air mini was just plain good

#

It only lacked 360mm support

#

Which is it

#

Everything else worked out

hoary zodiac
#

I mean

#

it's called a mini

fresh timber
#

i wish their was more a3 like cases, i liike tiny cases that support matx

frigid stag
#

I guess it’s not the first time

#

5.1ghz just fails 💀

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

wtf

mortal grail
#

It's probably the best implementation of o11 space they have

fresh timber
mortal grail
#

Took them years to improve on it

fresh timber
#

it so quiet now that the server is in the closet

hoary zodiac
#

yeah the O11D has a lot of white space

#

is it SFX or ATX

fresh timber
#

buildboy, you think a white case would look nice even if the motherboard has red

mortal grail
#

But in terms of cases O11s suck

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

oooo

#

which one has SFX again

mortal grail
#

I would take a d41 at this point tbh

fresh timber
hoary zodiac
mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

I prefer the Montech XR

mortal grail
#

Noticed this with their newer cases and with jonsbo

frigid stag
#

O11d evo?

mortal grail
#

It's not bad per se, but very dated ideology

hoary zodiac
#

they're nice cases

mortal grail
#

Or have

#

Still

frigid stag
#

I always thought they were premium cases

hoary zodiac
#

lancool 207 is also really nice

mortal grail
#

The evo was cursed

frigid stag
#

Strange

hoary zodiac
#

Lian Li's in their value phase

mortal grail
fresh timber
hoary zodiac
#

I am eyeing the lancool 207

mortal grail
#

I would def take an air mini over it

frigid stag
#

You had multiple builds in it?

mortal grail
#

Yes

hoary zodiac
mortal grail
#

I had multiple builds in both

hoary zodiac
#

I really like the form factor

mortal grail
#

O11 is just meh now like really

#

The new form factor I like is the jonsbo/dan style

fresh timber
#

i mean once built in its a nice gpu

mortal grail
#

Psu up front

hoary zodiac
#

like I don't even need hard drives these days

lone mango

#

Tight pack case

hoary zodiac
#

it can fit 2 hdds too

fresh timber
hoary zodiac
#

so like

fresh timber
#

I WANT

hoary zodiac
#

it's a really compact case and can fit a lot

hoary zodiac
#

like it's smaller than a lot of atx cases and can fit just as much

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

lancool 207 is a really nice size

mortal grail
#

Eyyyy

#

That is dope fr

misty sparrow
#

they even got it cooled using orange juice

hoary zodiac
#

yeah lian li has been releasing a lot of smaller form factor cases

fresh timber
#

i would deadass make a custom loop a3 if i had the money

hoary zodiac
#

like

mortal grail
#

I could make a loop a3 rn

hoary zodiac
#

a decad ago

mortal grail
#

I didn't cos loops are pain

misty sparrow
#

would be nice to see more great custom cases like that but not anime themed

hoary zodiac
#

a size the case of a lancool 207 would need a sfx psu

#

or a matx board

mortal grail
#

Maintaining loops are a task and a big one

#

And I have all the qdcs and stuff to make it easy

hoary zodiac
#

lancool 207 is full atx

#

that's the coolest part

frigid stag
#

Why are mora rads so expensive damn

mortal grail
rough zinc
#

Because niche and very good

frigid stag
#

Can’t even find one in stock but the prices listed are high

rough zinc
#

Which one you looking for?

frigid stag
#

Uh the 420 I think

fresh timber
#

in the a3 u could fit a 360m and maybe a 240mm on the side if ur space allows you to

mortal grail
frigid stag
#

420 pro ye

mortal grail
frigid stag
#

Thought they’d be cheaper

mortal grail
#

And if you're insane a 92mm back

rough zinc
#

Yeah thats Mora3, not made anymore

fresh timber
rough zinc
#

Mora IV 400 and 600s are the two current ones

frigid stag

Ah that makes sense why they’re so expensive

rough zinc

Should be in stock

fresh timber

i got the results back

wise wigeon

mortal grail

#

Ty I’ll take a look at that

rough zinc
#

mortal grail
#

It just wasn't worth looping

So I didn't

fresh timber
#

rough zinc
#

fresh timber
#

i have a friend with a looped 5900x and 2080ti just for the fun of it in 2025
