Heh and I wake up 2-4 hours later for class

As of recently I've found it hard to stay focus on lectures

[lavish stag]

Anyone have a g24f2? Its rated for 165hz but can be oc to 180hz. Idk if oz will hurt my monitor, i dont need it

[verbal minnow]

I need more durable monitors

Y’all ever throw ur controllers at your monitor n it js breaks

Like js some light throw tho

Nun too crazy

[paper verge]

bro wants to light spar with his monitor

💀

[sweet phoenix]

No.

[verbal minnow]

No bro ts gets me mad I b on the game I get mad I throw sm shi

[heavy dew]

Who here is an expert on 360 slims

[verbal minnow]

My monitor combusts into like 20 different pieces ts is ass bro

[heavy dew]

Someone point me to an Xbox 360 slim expert

[verbal minnow]

Ik sm bout consoles

[heavy dew]

Okay so

I got a 360 slim

I can’t tell if it’s overheating or the south bridge is failing

So basically i had my friend testing the console by playing NBA 2K12 because i absolutely suck at 2K but then the xbox the video started going in and out and idk what happened and then the screens went completely back so i turned off the console and turned it back on and it came back on

With a screen output

[proud jackal]

i hate daylight savings

[south sapphire]

What’s up ya’ll

[verbal minnow]

It’s prolly overheating and crashing I have sm similar w my ps3 slim where it overheats a lot

N crashes

I think th system is becoming worse

[heavy dew]

Hmmm well the good news is I know how to take apart a 360 slim

The bad part is I hate taking them apart

Cus every 360 is a pain in the ass to work on

[lucid bay]

Y’all seen the 9600XT?

[pliant berry]

It’s even worse when you have work early in the morning

[craggy shoal]

Nah I like it. Keep the sun out of my face

Also there's more play time outside (mountain biking for me) after work

[devout forum]

Could we know if this is a Hynix kit?

cuz if it is

Then half price is no-brainer

[craggy shoal]

I forgot how to tell. Obviously you could look at the chips but there's a heat sink on each stick

[devout forum]

Doesn't matter, this one is guaranteed https://hardverapro.hu/apro/patriot_viper_venom_ddr5_6000mhz_32gb_uj_bontatlan/friss.html

6000CL30 is always Hynix

doesn't have lighting but like

Who cares, I'll just slap an RGB strip in the case

and it's 40% cheaper than new

[rough zinc]

Being 6000c36, almost definitely no

[devout forum]

It doesn't matter

cuz I found a guaranteed Hynix for the same price almost

[mortal grail]

It is

E0MH

[devout forum]

[mortal grail]

No like that's how you know

[devout forum]

all EOMH tag is guaranteed Hynix then?

[mortal grail]

The H is hynix literally

The H

[devout forum]

OH

am dum

that makes more sense

[mortal grail]

S is samsung

[devout forum]

I see

[mortal grail]

M is micron

Idk which hynix but doesn't matter

A/M both good

[devout forum]

I see

both Hynix dies are good in DDR5 iirc

then check the stuff to make sure its hynix

[mortal grail]

You can truth in me

[devout forum]

also turns out that Patriot kit is even cheaper than the Fury Beast one

Nvm same price

[mortal grail]

Mmmm I'd prefer the fury

[devout forum]

so I guess preference?

[mortal grail]

The fury heatsinks actually work

[devout forum]

Oh?

[mortal grail]

And fury is low profile

[devout forum]

dang

I'd have to travel to pick them up tho

[mortal grail]

Up to you

I have a bit of a soft spot for fury sticks tho

Unusually good despite the bland appearance

[devout forum]

it's not bland

It's understated

[mortal grail]

Mmmm no I've had a few kits of furys

Bland def

But not low quality

[devout forum]

trying to be cheritable ngl

they just get the job done without any fuss

[mortal grail]

I would argue that fury ddr5 feels similar to trident z5 in the hands but it's much better running

My ripjaws feel worse quality

[devout forum]

Adata XPG?

[mortal grail]

Better than adatas

Very bland but very functional

[devout forum]

Patriot Viper Venom is meh then?

[mortal grail]

Ima say historically yeah?

But no real idea about ddr5 variants

I just know there's nothing wrong with them

I've heard klevv is pretty good too

Come a long way over the years

Theo buy 9070 xt with me

[devout forum]

That's as much endorsement as I need

if it's not gonna cause major issues

and I don't have to spend a day traveling to pick it up

Then good enough for me

8 figs of jam

[lone mango]

I was saying in graphics chat that I think 12 would be more suitable for that card

But who knows maybe it’s powerful enough to drive higher settings

8 tho is just silly

[rancid juniper]

Should've had 12/16gb configs

These companies are stupidly stingy on vram

[lone mango]

And the 60 cards should be 10 at least

[rancid juniper]

Literal joke

[lone mango]

And they are using gddr6 its crazy

[rancid juniper]

U got Intel over here giving 10/12gb for their gpus

[lone mango]

Thing is though, you have to design the bus to take an extra chip

[rancid juniper]

If anything b310 (if they're gonna make it) has to be 8gb minimum

Anything else after is higher

[lone mango]

Thats why its 8/16

[rancid juniper]

Still mid

[lone mango]

They would have to basically make a new chip design for 10 or 12

Still though

[rancid juniper]

We had 8gb consumer cards for over a decade bruh

I'm surprised they didn't up that amount even with the popularity of Ai stuff

[velvet summit]

Well, it's obviously so that AI bros will have to buy their 5090 instead frfr

[rancid juniper]

gotta show em the rest of the lineup is inferior

Good morning folks. I wanted to get some ideas on what I should put as my background behind my set up.

[cedar compass]

[pastel mist]

I'm considering this. James Web Telescope.

[lucid bay]

WARPIG

OMG

It’s been ages

[pastel mist]

Or some acustic foam panels

[cedar compass]

yeah im still around lol

[lucid bay]

How have you been?

[cedar compass]

foam panels are good for reducing reverb

[cedar compass]

thanks I do perfect . what about u

[pastel mist]

Would you have some awsome link to some really nice panels?

[lucid bay]

Doing great, my friend, thanks for asking!

[cedar compass]

I using rockwool panels and it's actually better than foam but it's bit hard to make one lol if you want something cool looking just check this out https://www.amazon.com/ZenSonic-Self-adhesive-Sound-Proof-Panels/dp/B0D8Q2JCRN?

[pastel mist]

Wow these are nice

[cedar compass]

for echo reducing pyramid foam is recomended as well . they're easy to install and cheap but they're bit ugly

[pastel mist]

Thank you so much @cedar compass

[pliant berry]

I think elgato also sold some panels that looked decent, on the pricier side though

[cedar compass]

I just got some rockwool and put itno frame , and put custom fabric on it . easy

[pastel mist]

Do you have a link by chance?

[pliant berry]

Apparently they might be discontinued? Or just impossible to find in some places

[pastel mist]

Custom fabrics?

[cedar compass]

I'm fashion designer so I have lots of fabrics around anyways

[rancid juniper]

hmmm

nope

Ty, i got it for $900 with a 990pro 2TB. But its the 144hz version

[nocturne merlin]

is 4x16 ddr4 fine on a dual channel mb if i already have 2x16 and want to upgrade?

I know memory controller load and stuff but it's just running xmp

[devout forum]

Iirc it COULD work on DDR4

But don't quite quote me on it

DDR5 doesn't like it

[nocturne merlin]

I mean isn't that why there's 4 slots on dual channel mbs

[worn wave]

Yeah it's fine on ddr4

Ddr5 is where you really wanna stay away from 4 sticks

[nocturne merlin]

what about the putting more load on the cpu and stuff thing

not important?

[worn wave]

But you do want to get the exact same kit

[nocturne merlin]

yea ofc

[worn wave]

Not that I know of

[nocturne merlin]

alr thanks apparently 64gb is slowly becoming the recommended for sims

[frigid stag]

It’s harder on the imc ye

[nocturne merlin]

with 3600?

[devout forum]

It should be fine

Not ideal, but it should be fine

[frigid stag]

It’s always more demanding on the imc, but it probably might work

[nocturne merlin]

alright ima try it nothing to lose ig

[frigid stag]

On some boards 4 sticks is better anyway

Like mine works better with 4 iirc

[nocturne merlin]

how come if it's not quad

[frigid stag]

Cause it’s not a daisy chain board

It’s t top

bruh, hopefully that gen's cores make up for it

[frigid stag]

It’s not even an architecture thing. All the other cards got slight boosts

Small but still higher than previous gen and for sure higher than 30 series

yea i thought the 16gb 4060ti had a higher core count but it didn't lel

[frigid stag]

Oh it’s the same

[rancid juniper]

so 5060ti finally using GDDR7

it has more TMUS and cores than its predecessor

[frigid stag]

I guess that’s an improvement

[rancid juniper]

yea, that might help it utilize full fat 16gb properly

[frigid stag]

The 5070 seems like the real 5060

Or 5060ti

[rancid juniper]

[mental yoke]

they say that every iteration

2 boosts

@mortal grail how’s the gigabyte GS27QC?

$78 for a 2560x1440 170hz curved monitor

[mental yoke]

27 tho?

thats so tiny

[sinful blade]

Oh wait

Scam

[frigid stag]

❓

27inch is tiny?

[mental yoke]

absoutely

[sinful blade]

I want a 27 inch with at least 100hz

[mental yoke]

yea thats way too good of a price

[sinful blade]

Apparently Amazon took it down already
Pcpp hasn’t updated

Open box policy is standard like that

eh

thats lame

I’m getting a good $1194 for this semester of college, giving wife $1k for her van, but the rest is mine

I wanna stop using a 2012 lcd tv with 60Hz display

[mental yoke]

moving from 60hz is nice

[sinful blade]

Wife has a 75hz, but I wanna get something decent, but like, not over $80

That’s why I’m heavily looking into used/open box

[mental yoke]

u stateside or somewhere else?

[sinful blade]

States

[mental yoke]

im a huge fan of slickdeals, i find newegg deals on their all the time that i purchase

[fresh timber]

https://spec-ify.com/profile/ea5d1753

[mental yoke]

but for used items ur looking somewhere else, id prolly be checking out pawn shops, they can haggle pretty good usually

i saw a g9 in person that other day it was really nice looking 🤤

[sinful blade]

What in the hell

[lone mango]

Yeah basically go down a tier this generation

5080 to 5070ti, 5070ti to 5070

[frigid stag]

Meh the rest are fine

[lone mango]

So the rumored 5050 is a 5030

[frigid stag]

Just the 5060 and 5060 ti that are downgraded

[lone mango]

Nah

[frigid stag]

It’s literally just a refresh

[lone mango]

Watch hubs video you'll see how they gimped lower skus even more than 40 series

[frigid stag]

How?

I’ve seen the 5080 video it was just a bunch of doom posting click bait

They’re on the same node as 40 series, it’s surprising how they even got 20% more performance from them

[frigid stag]

Ye hardware Improvements plataued makes sense

You can’t expect generational improvements when it’s on the same node

[lone mango]

Its technically different, 4np vs 4n but pretty similar

[gentle canyon]

homer simpson amogus

[lone mango]

But they still could have increased core counts relative to the flagship because thats how they always did it, and 4np does have a density increase compared to 4n

So just like ada, this is intentional

[tranquil pebble]

Cursed idea: GPU with 6 fans... 3 on top, 3 on bottom

[tranquil pebble]

unless there was a SERIOUS optimization issue with the first dies lol

[sweet phoenix]

Slugs are homeless snails

[misty sparrow]

homer sus

[lone mango]

Wow he still does both languages

I think the german channel still gets more views too

[lavish stag]

Is it me or does recording games through adrenaline suck. I choose 120fps recording and im getting over 120fps but it looks like crap

[sweet phoenix]

Do you have gpu encoding enabled?

Also what gpu

[lone mango]

You probably have to increase bitrate for 120fps

Also your framerate in the game might also be out of sync unless you cap that too

Yeah encoding matters too but no matter what encoder you have, you need to increase bitrate

[lavish stag]

So if im recording 120 i should cap it to 120? I set my bitrate to max but on avc encoding

[lone mango]

What gpu you got rn

Try hevc

[lavish stag]

6650xt

[lone mango]

Ok do hevc

Its more efficient

[lavish stag]

Kk

[fierce grove]

this is prob fire asf

[lone mango]

But also

Why are you doing 120 and not 60

[lavish stag]

I thought if 120 was an option why not use it?

[lone mango]

Nah its only useful to maintain smoothness when you slow down video when editing

[lavish stag]

Ah

[lone mango]

Because if you slow down a 60 fps video to 50% in a video editor, it will be more chppy. But if you do 120 and slow it down, it will look more smooth

Besides that there is no point

Honestly for recording I do like 18.5 mbps for 1080p 60. Adrenalin compresses really good somehow

I have that set for replays and recording

You can get away with lower though. For replays I remember having like 16 and would turn it up for recording

Then turn it down again for replays so they take up less space

I just found a medium at 18 and let it be, sometimes you forget to change these small things. I say 18.5 60 fps and leave it

[tranquil pebble]

meanwhile I've seen people do 1080p 60 at 4 mbps... and it looks worse than 420p lol

[fresh timber]

this is why my antiglare glasses look bad on my pc compared to my non antiglare pair

I need a better monitor arm

That costs as much as a new one

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Wbgrxr/msi-g255f-245-1920-x-1080-180-hz-monitor-g255f higher refresh rate too

[lone mango]

I dont trust those monitors

I got a different variation of that at micro center and two of them had differnt pink hues after like 15 minutes of being on

[sinful blade]

I may just have Bacca be the lookout

[lone mango]

They turned pink in different areas

It was the g244f e2

Oh no

Please dont get 27 inch 1080p

[fresh timber]

Ru judging me

[lone mango]

I used to use one too

But micro center had a 240hz 24''

Its called the hyper x armada 25

That monitor also came out in 2017 i think

Called the mag27c

oddly enough the 850w from the same series has 3 8 pins because it has a 16 pin to 2x 8 pin

Around the same fps

[tranquil pebble]

Well for me, it runs better

[fresh timber]

Same

[manic plume]

2200

[wise wigeon]

no

2200 fora 5070 is too much

[fresh timber]

It would be worth buying the parts at micro center and paying them to build it for you if your not comfortable

9070xt, 9800x3d

[manic plume]

its for a friend

[fresh timber]

Welcome to microcenter where prices are good

[manic plume]

i was currently doing that

[wise wigeon]

tell im no

[fresh timber]

Do that, 9800x3d 9070xt pc would be good

[wise wigeon]

but employees are still employees

and want sales

[fresh timber]

Huh

[wise wigeon]

as evident from that picture i posted earlier

[fresh timber]

Just say no to anything they try selling you?

[fresh timber]

I didn’t see anything

[wise wigeon]

well if you're tech illiterate

[fresh timber]

I bought my gpu from the center lowkey good

[wise wigeon]

you wont know whats good or bad

and they just lead you on

[fresh timber]

That’s in alot of business, like the car dealerships

Lolll

Welcome to life

[wise wigeon]

ik

[manic plume]

i don't think they have any 9070xt at the microcenter

[wise wigeon]

thats why i said what i said?

[manic plume]

they have a 7900xt

[wise wigeon]

no

[fresh timber]

Wait for more stock

[wise wigeon]

not unless its significantly cheaper

[fresh timber]

Microcenter is getting alot of 9070xt

[manic plume]

ok ill tell him to hold off for now

[wise wigeon]

i mean 9070xt isnt the only thing out there

[fresh timber]

5070ti at the right price impossible

Xtx open box

[wise wigeon]

if the 9070xt aint like 700 or under I wouldn't go for it

[manic plume]

its 709

[wise wigeon]

depends on what they have in stock

[manic plume]

theres no nvidia cards there basically

[wise wigeon]

apparently marietta had a couple of msrp 5080 this morning

[fresh timber]

Yeah people are stupid

[fresh timber]

Is it even worth

9070xt can beat it sometimes kek

[wise wigeon]

in amd favored games yeah

[fresh timber]

AMD fixed all my issues I had with them in this generation

So I’m happy

[fresh timber]

Good thing Nvidia has their share of favored games kek

AMD on top

[manic plume]

if one of you guys dont mind to look at and see if it is decent: https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=e00f8981-0edf-480b-9e34-17119751c618

[wise wigeon]

but as a whole it is 15-20% faster

[fresh timber]

Yeah so sad

[wise wigeon]

its all about what you value

[fresh timber]

My eyes are open for cheap 7900xt/9070xt

And money to buy them

[wise wigeon]

if you value the RT and productivity and DLSS

an msrp 5080 isnt the worst

[fresh timber]

I still wouldn’t buy a 5070xt, 5080 debatable

[wise wigeon]

a 1500 5080 is bad value period

[wise wigeon]

5070 xt?

[fresh timber]

My brain died, I ment 5070ti

Too many gpus

[tranquil pebble]

the moment AMD starts adding tensor cores to Radeon is when Nvidia is going to start panicking lol

[wise wigeon]

5070 ti depending on the model could be like only 50 dollars more than most 9070xt models

[fresh timber]

Word

When it’s time for me to buy I’d lowkey spend the extra $50

[wise wigeon]

it depends on the model

[fresh timber]

Unless it’s a ulgy gpu

I like my chonky ones

[wise wigeon]

for dlss4 and 20% better RT yeah

its dependent on the card

no like individual card

you're feeding it less voltage you arent likelyt to cause damage to it, the issue is if you push it too low it will be unstable

so you might get artifacting, crash, etc

underclocking is different

[fresh timber]

Unblocking singing

I died

[wise wigeon]

?

[craggy shoal]

Huh

https://tenor.com/view/huh-cat-roblox-huh-cat-huh-cat-saying-huh-gif-27625167

[wise wigeon]

but basically decrease it by small increments and benchmark to stest stability

[craggy shoal]

What

Bro who are you

[wise wigeon]

lol

[craggy shoal]

Okay 👍

[wise wigeon]

motor just giving people their 13th reason

[fresh timber]

The gpu is too big for this motherboard lol

[tranquil pebble]

underclock until unstable challenge lol

[fresh timber]

Can’t plugin front audio

[craggy shoal]

Yeah just undervolt it in tiny increments. Like 0.025V or something

[fresh timber]

I think it won’t become unstable, just incredibly slower and slower

[wise wigeon]

AMD is a curve offsest

at least in adrenaline

[craggy shoal]

Oh I wouldn't know

[tranquil pebble]

pretty sure a modern CPU if forced to run at like 100 MHz would in fact be unstable

[fresh timber]

Test it out

Choose a light OS like Linux or something tho

[craggy shoal]

Core multiple = 0.001

[wise wigeon]

if you wanna drop temps and power real quick you could just drop the power limit for now

and when we have sopmeone more versed you can ask them

[fresh timber]

I don’t even notice much of a fps difference when I Pl my gpu lol

[craggy shoal]

Setup a power limit per game too

[wise wigeon]

i'm sure felix is gonna do some undervolting once he gets his

for intel

[fresh timber]

Use fps limit

Yall use apps?

I do that in the bios

[wise wigeon]

throttle stop is quick and easy

[fresh timber]

Bios is what’s the word, more universal

[wise wigeon]

and less annoying than ryzen master imo

[fresh timber]

Ryzen master won’t even open on my ryzen sustem

Let alone install

[wise wigeon]

i just use it on this temp install of windows

ok i got lectures to watch

[fresh timber]

[craggy shoal]

Guys I don't think we can say "PC better" anymore

Consoles are justifiable with the way things are going

Hmm

Actually

Both are bad

Bruh imma just stop gaming there's no point anymore

Y'all will be seeing me with a ThinkPad with Arch on it bye guys

[proud jackal]

[tranquil pebble]

iGPUs and retro gaming are justifiable

[craggy shoal]

True

[tranquil pebble]

to heck with abandoning PC entirely

reminds me... I have a stupidly powerful graphing calc of the late 00s that I should get back into modding for lulz

or early 10s actually, but still

[hoary zodiac]

I mean

PC is better if you already have a PC

[tranquil pebble]

one of these... it ended up kinda forcing TI to make color screens for their calcs

[hoary zodiac]

ayo

CG gang

[tranquil pebble]

CG-10 Prizm was a big deal

[hoary zodiac]

I got the stupid low memory version

Can't run doom

[tranquil pebble]

absolutely murdered TI for readability

[hoary zodiac]

I can however run a whole gameboy emulator

[tranquil pebble]

mine likely could do doom in color lol

I should get it to do Bad Apple

[proud jackal]

banned classroom calculators

D:

[fierce grove]

Somebody tell me everything thats wrong with my friends up and coming PC

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/x47Vfd

🙏

its so bad

[tranquil pebble]

I was in HS when Casio dropped the first consumer color screen graphing calc, and showed it to the math teacher. He was shocked by it lol

I was allowed to use it for everything except state standardized tests

[hoary zodiac]

Yeah

Can yours run python tho?

[tranquil pebble]

with a hack, probably

it definitely has enough RAM for the embedded version

[hoary zodiac]

Mine has built in python

Honestly a game changer

[sweet phoenix]

Not exaggerating, everything

Whats it being used for

[fierce grove]

thats what i siad, but if you dont mind can you list down every reason, and ill tell my friend please

[sweet phoenix]

Id rather not but I can make him a far better list

[fierce grove]

just casual use, obs stuff, videos every now and then, live audio, discord talking, chrome

[sweet phoenix]

Yeah 14900k is not for him

13600k/14600k, 7600/x, 7800x3d or 9800x3d

[fierce grove]

i inv him

his name is wowo

[mental yoke]

i

Whats wrong with my PC?

[hoary zodiac]

everything

firstly

[fierce grove]

exactly what i said

[verbal minnow]

He bought windows for starters

[hoary zodiac]

let's address the elephant in the room

[verbal minnow]

😂

[hoary zodiac]

the $1029 RTX 4070S

that card is worth way less

[sweet phoenix]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yLBpVF

[tranquil pebble]

honestly for casual use I would get an AM5 Ryzen 5

[mental yoke]

The 4070 super was cheap for me

[tranquil pebble]

unless he wants to also game

[fierce grove]

Hungry CPU

Bad Ram Specs

Overpriced Case

Overpriced GPU

Overpriced PSU

[hoary zodiac]

that's not the point

[sweet phoenix]

$600 or less?

[verbal minnow]

Btw I got a question why do ppl hate on the new intel CPU’s

[hoary zodiac]

the point is that you can get a lot more performance for the same price

[sweet phoenix]

Core ultra or 13th/14th?

[mental yoke]

Less then 500 a bit

[sweet phoenix]

Solid

[hoary zodiac]

oh

[sweet phoenix]

Id change the rest tho

[hoary zodiac]

so the price on the list is fake

ok that's fine

[sweet phoenix]

.

[verbal minnow]

He

Yeah

[fierce grove]

i forgot to ask him about the price when making it, also ignore the windows

[sweet phoenix]

Case and cooler are mainly personal preference but please don't spend more than $80-100 on case and $30-50 on cooler

[mental yoke]

Well the price on the list isnt the price for me cuz I ordered the PC custom built for me at micro center

[worthy meteor]

Core ultra has been a performance downgrade from 13/14th gen lol

[mental yoke]

the pc picker list isnt the correct prices

[sweet phoenix]

You answered yes to a multiple choice question lol

[tranquil pebble]

not to mention the CPU with the worst track record of reliability known to man lol

[sweet phoenix]

The cpu, cooler, case, psu, and windows are all overpriced as hell

[hoary zodiac]

wait

[fierce grove]

ignore the windows one, i just put it there just cuz

[verbal minnow]

Other guy answered is fine

[hoary zodiac]

did you already buy the list?

[sweet phoenix]

A 14900k will perform identically to a 13600k for you. The extra cores do nothing for u

[fierce grove]

he alread bought it

LOL

[hoary zodiac]

alright

[fierce grove]

im his friend btw

[sweet phoenix]

F

[hoary zodiac]

nothing we can do

case closed

very unfortunate

[fresh timber]

RGB

[fierce grove]

microcenter people are awaiting the building of his pc

[hoary zodiac]

I mean if he already bought it we're not gonna keep egging him on

sicne there's nothing we can do to help

[limber crane]

Anyone know if shuffle is going to be used tomorrow? Or is it just free reign for bots again?

[fierce grove]

he could upgrade

he has a lotta money

hes a rich fella

[tranquil pebble]

but isnt EGGing people on what we do? lol

[hoary zodiac]

rich doesn't mean you should waste money

[limber crane]

How do you like that case? I am thinking it will be ny next case, what AIO did you get?

[tranquil pebble]

A rich person who wastes money is a rich person who wont be rich for long

[fresh timber]

u cant get my aio anymore

its banned

[hoary zodiac]

unless their dad owns an emerald mine in south africa

[tranquil pebble]

DeepCool?

[fresh timber]

yup

[tranquil pebble]

lol

[fierce grove]

that is my friends situation

[hoary zodiac]

next time

[tranquil pebble]

Plenty of newly rich fools have found themselves in poverty after blowing it all on dumb stuff though

[hoary zodiac]

bring him in before he buys it

[mental yoke]

micro is on fire rn

🔥

[fierce grove]

i feel so bad for him

[hoary zodiac]

like yeah his pc is very poorly priced but egging him on isn't going to fix it

[fierce grove]

everytings overpriced

LOL

[fierce grove]

it could fix it, he can just upgrade, money isnt a problem

[sweet phoenix]

Throwing more money at it doesnt help lmao

[hoary zodiac]

it's... not your decision to make

[sweet phoenix]

The parts themselves aren't the issue, it's the pricing

He can get better performance for less

[hoary zodiac]

that pc can be very good

[lost bear]

double trouble

[sweet phoenix]

Or identical performance for a lot less

[hoary zodiac]

if it wasn't stupidly priced

[fierce grove]

oh then maybe its not a problem at all then, because he doesnt care about money

[hoary zodiac]

ok

good for him

pc works

make sure he updates the bios

so his cpu doesn't degrade

[sweet phoenix]

👍

[tranquil pebble]

that is entirely on him. Nothing we can really say/do.

[fierce grove]

is the list good in general? outside of pricing?

[spark halo]

Pffft seriously

[sweet phoenix]

I think with a b760 that isn't an issue but I would suggest it still

[tranquil pebble]

If they dont want to take advice then meh

[hoary zodiac]

outside of pricing you can justify everything

[mental yoke]

4070 + ryzen 7 5800x what you guys think?

[hoary zodiac]

you can't just take pricing out of the equation

[fierce grove]

he does wanna take advice, he just never knew about this server, i just told him about it

[sweet phoenix]

Only "bad" thing is the ssd, and functionally it should be fine

[fresh timber]

im here making fun of overpriced parts list like i aint overspend on my pc my self

[sweet phoenix]

Budget and country?

[spark halo]

Bros losing his scalp

[mental yoke]

already got it

[spark halo]

Doesnt care

[hoary zodiac]

...

wh

[sweet phoenix]

If you've had the cpu for a while or got it under $130, cool

If the gpu was more than $550, not cool

If you just bought the cpu mobo and ram, also not cool

But you bought it already

[tranquil pebble]

outside of pricing I could justify a 7995wx, and two 5090s too though

[sweet phoenix]

What does it matter

[tranquil pebble]

It would not be hard for me to put all the hardware to its limit

[hoary zodiac]

we really should have a disclaimer

"ask for help, not validation"

[tranquil pebble]

fr

[mental yoke]

bought it for 800 aud

and the cpu for like 250 aud

[hoary zodiac]

jesus christ

[tranquil pebble]

or ask for validation if you want to learn from a mistake you made ig

[sweet phoenix]

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/fcBzK8/sapphire-pulse-radeon-rx-7800-xt-16-gb-video-card-11330-02-20g

[hoary zodiac]

9070XT is like 1K aud

pretty sure other gpus are way less

[fierce grove]

lucky for me i thoroughly asked this server before picking my parts

phew

[sweet phoenix]

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/yXmmP6/amd-ryzen-5-7600-38-ghz-6-core-processor-100-100001015box

[mental yoke]

yeah i am fine with my 4070

[hoary zodiac]

the thing is

you should be getting a 4080

[sweet phoenix]

?

[fierce grove]

@sweet phoenix personally wanna thank you the most for helping me, otherwise i would prib have terrible parts

[hoary zodiac]

or a 4070 super ti at the very least

[sweet phoenix]

4070 not 5070

[hoary zodiac]

for 800 AUD

[mental yoke]

thing is thats way more expensive lmao

[mental yoke]

ha

4080 for 800 aud

for sure

[sweet phoenix]

Nw

[fierce grove]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qHVDmC

fire ahh list

[sweet phoenix]

How is the monitor?

I have a slightly better mini led, curious how that one is

We know it's good but idk anyone who's bought it themselves

[mental yoke]

all 4080's are over 1k minimum

[sweet phoenix]

At least not in this server that I've asked abt ig

[mental yoke]

aud

[fierce grove]

its pretty good ngl, but i hate the illusion that the middle is bulging out (ive been stuck with curved for like ever)

[sweet phoenix]

7800xt

[mental yoke]

dont know where u got 800 aud from

[fierce grove]

and i dont like how its not 4k

[sweet phoenix]

I get wym but you get used to it after a couple days

At least I did

[mental yoke]

no no i was responding to the guy who said 800 for a 4080

[fierce grove]

the bulge is startiung to go away yeah

[sweet phoenix]

And make sure you change the refresh rate and enable HDR

[sweet phoenix]

I know

He probably misread or smthn

[mental yoke]

i have a 4070 he said i shoulda got a 4080 when thats like nearly double the price that i paid for my 4070

[fierce grove]

i did, it is pretty fire ngl, i would have wanted 4k ngl

[sweet phoenix]

7800xt is a 4070 with slightly worse rtx and upscaling, but more vram and a bit cheaper

[sweet phoenix]

Personally i don't suggest 4k for most gamers

[mental yoke]

hope so

[mental yoke]

im on 2k

its more than enough

[sweet phoenix]

32" 1440p has slightly higher pixel density than 24" 1080p

[mental yoke]

things dont seem aliased

[hoary zodiac]

what I meant is you should be getting 4080 level of performance for that price

[sweet phoenix]

27" 1440p is great

[hoary zodiac]

not the card itself

[mental yoke]

me rn lmao

[sweet phoenix]

Going from 24" 1080p VA to 1440p 27" IPS was a massive difference for me

[hoary zodiac]

the point was that 4070 for $800 was overpriced

[fierce grove]

how about unde 500

my friend got it for under 500

[hoary zodiac]

not in Australia

[sweet phoenix]

The gpu is the one part of the build he got right

Lol

[hoary zodiac]

I remember roughly a couple months ago

the 7900GRE was roughly around $800 AUD

but that's never coming back

[mental yoke]

it was honestly a steal, used off ebay for around 800 aud not bad pricing at all considering the stock price and how good condition it was in.

[fierce grove]

agreed

[hoary zodiac]

I wouldn't call it a steal

at least not compared to market low prices

even in current market conditions it's really not that good

[fierce grove]

my opinion he should have waited at microcenter and gotten a 9070 xt

microcenter has anti scalping

[hoary zodiac]

wrong market!!!!

[fierce grove]

he def would have gotten it

[hoary zodiac]

wrong country

[fierce grove]

canada doesnt have any?>

[hoary zodiac]

...

[spark halo]

I feel like any “used” gpu model on ebay you just need to be careful with nowadays due too crypto being so big now if it gives you any problem within the 30 days just state technical problem

[fierce grove]

im so confused wha

[spark halo]

One of the few times ebay will always side with consumer

[hoary zodiac]

I'm going to tab out

[hoary zodiac]

to be fair

any country is dangerous if you go around the more sketchy parts

although..

some more than others

[dusk knot]

It’s a beautiful country

I mean if you mess around in south italy

[dusk knot]

[hoary zodiac]

you're gonna run into the mafia

[fresh timber]

1440p 27 inch is amazing

1080p 27 inch is alright

[sweet phoenix]

1080p 27" is mid

[dusk knot]

Exactly. Do your research, have friends wherever you’re going, and you’re fine. This was my first solo trip

[sweet phoenix]

Too pixilated

[fresh timber]

its my 2nd display 1080p 27inch 165hz

does the job

[hoary zodiac]

yeah

even in Australia

[sweet phoenix]

2nd display is whatever

[hoary zodiac]

don't go to Logan

[sweet phoenix]

But for a main display it's a hard pass

[fresh nova]

32in bruh

[hoary zodiac]

do not go to logan!!!!

[fresh nova]

bigger is better

[fresh timber]

32inch is too big for my setup

[sweet phoenix]

Even in my tiny state in the US there's very dangerous parts

[dusk knot]

Don’t get 1080p 27 inch. Thanks

[sweet phoenix]

Like downtown in Bridgeport or Hartford

[fresh nova]

1440P new min

imo

[fresh timber]

If i need another montor for cheap id do it again kek

but 1440p is cheap now

[dusk knot]

😐

[sweet phoenix]

Like $120ish for refurb

[tranquil pebble]

I did this once. I do not regret it, but I am on 1440p OLED now.

[sweet phoenix]

$150-180 normally for new

[fresh timber]

i got mines for $300

[spark halo]

Ah yes the “shady parts of town”

[fresh timber]

we dont talk about the 240hz premium

[dusk knot]

Smart man right here

[fresh timber]

my state has the shady parts, we have chicago

[hoary zodiac]

yeah

here's the thing you need to know about Australia

[sweet phoenix]

Huh

[sweet phoenix]

1440p mini led for me

[fresh timber]

australia aint anything compared to soulth side chicago

[hoary zodiac]

teen crime is rampant

[fresh timber]

lmfao

[sweet phoenix]

Oled was too expensive

[hoary zodiac]

now that is not representative of the majority

[tranquil pebble]

sometimes when the screen goes black I forget for a second that OLED and think the monitor shut off lol

[fresh timber]

do they make 240hz mini led yet

[sweet phoenix]

Yes

Koorui gn10

[hoary zodiac]

but the teens who do commit crime are pretty vile

[sweet phoenix]

But there are some caveats to it

[hoary zodiac]

so really what my point is

even in first world countries you can be in a lot of danger

[fresh timber]

ooo

[dusk knot]

lol. Happens to me from time to time as well

[sweet phoenix]

I forget exactly what it is, something with freesync and hdr not worth together I think?

[fresh timber]

ehh i dont even use hdr anyways

[sweet phoenix]

Its also $300, we've seen oled under $400 before

[misty sparrow]

those cheap ones have flaws in one way or another, oled's like $500 for 1440p

[fresh timber]

...

WHY DIDIT I KNOW THIS BEFORE

[sweet phoenix]

You will if you have a mini led or oled

[fresh timber]

i got my 240hz 1440p for $300 😢

[sweet phoenix]

Its one of the biggest upsides

[tranquil pebble]

HDR on OLED is like godlike experience

[spark halo]

Say i wanted to get an autolocking door system

[fresh timber]

does hdr reqduce fps

[spark halo]

What would be my best options

[sweet phoenix]

No

It basically makes colors look more vibrant ig?

[dusk knot]

Someone who understands. On my m4 iPad Pro….it’s incredible

[sweet phoenix]

It absolutely shocked me how amazing it looks on mini led

[fresh timber]

yuh, didnt know if their was a overhead

[sweet phoenix]

Going from 1440p 165hz IPS to same spec mini led was a solid upgrade for me

[misty sparrow]

is hdr oled on the pro iphones too? the newer ones

[fresh timber]

i just like refreshrate kek

[tranquil pebble]

My OnePlus 11 is OLED with HDR10+ capability and it too is insanity

[sweet phoenix]

Considering i needed to replace my side monitor anyways

[fresh timber]

im at the point my gpu cant keep up with my montior, its fun

[sweet phoenix]

Tell your gpu to run faster

[fresh timber]

i really should stop mixing monitors kek

[tranquil pebble]

I tell you from experience that it is better than other way around... especially 60 hz. 60 hz will hold back a decent GPU so hard it is not even funny.
