Pro max is 6.9

fresh timber
#

IRRC it’s the same physical size but they shrink the bezel

#

So bigger screens with the same or similar foot print

#

I wish Apple made a 16e plus

And MagSafe, I’d love that

dense locust

it'd just be a 16

better everything else anyway on the 16

fresh timber

I’ll take what ever I can get lol, I just really want pro max or plus

fresh timber
#

I go to my dads house next week, I’m going to upgrade my 2nd pcs gpu, take my monitor and peripherals, and go

#

Let’s hope I don’t break my monitor going their

wise wigeon
#

i mean its personal preference

#

i think apple can make good hardware but the software is wack sometimes

#

the camera is good and so is the integration in the ecosystem

#

but like idk too much effort if i wanna just sideload an app

gentle canyon
#

why cant amazon have a dark mode bruh

ik theres prob an extension for it

Alt store my friend

wise wigeon
#

its just finicky

fresh timber
wise wigeon
#

doesnt always wanna do it

dense locust
#

For iPhone: Settings > accessibility > per-app settings > add app > Amazon > Amazon > smart invert > on

Edit: I’ve been informed that the iOS 18 update inverts all images. While it’s still easier on the eyes, the photos won’t display correctly 😢. At least we got to enjoy it for a little while.

fresh timber
#

Alt store is weird tho, iv had it refresh automatically over WiFi before but then it just stops doing it

dense locust
#

lmao they broke smart invert

wise wigeon
#

and i wish there was a batter way to find my tweaks

fresh timber
wise wigeon
#

today my youtube tweaked ipa borked and now homescreen dont work because its an old version of youtube

#

and I cannot be bothered to dredge through the dev drama of all the different tweaked youtube ipas

fresh timber
#

YouTube just sucks they don’t let you pip music

#

Theirs a reason I only watch YouTube on my pc

#

Unironically if YouTube premium didn’t cost mf $18 a month I’d buy it

dense locust
#

Thonk i wonder if i can etch my pc glass with this image
well worth a shot Thinkies

wise wigeon
dense locust
#

have i been ripped off all this time?

wise wigeon
#

you have to verify you're a student yeah

paper verge
#

pretty much everything is discounted for students

dense locust
#

can i use my main youtube account?

fresh timber
dense locust
#

says 13.99 for me

fresh timber
#

It’s $18.99 for me

dense locust
#

thats odd

#

where are you trying to buy it from

#

youtube app?

#

dont buy from the youtube app buy from the website since apple takes a 30% cut they usually raise prices by 30%

fresh timber
#

The goat Apple Pay

dense locust
#

you're paying 30% more

#

so just use the website

#

they prob accept apple pay too

fresh timber
#

True

#

Apple discourages using the website

#

Naughty naughty

#

Money grab

dense locust
#

less money for them

There's no value in it cause my extensions let me play in the background on mobile and block ads

I got a question. I run 3 monitors with a 3060ti and a Ryzen 7 3600x and 32gb of ram. When I'm playing a game on my main monitor the other 2 monitors get choppy almost laggy feedback wether that be YouTube videos or even wallpaper engine. They don't play smoothly and skip a decent amount of frames. Anyone have an idea why? I'm hoping it's just that i need a cpu upgrade but recently i just had Nvidia's overlay crash my whole computer trying to save a replay but idk if that's related

storm narwhal
#

What resolution on each?

#

Its honestly probably your gpu tho cause 3 monitors isn't exactly light work, especially while gaming and watching a video AND having wallpaper engine all at the same time

coarse idol
#

Even with turning off wallpaper engine but yeah that's fair

#

2 side monitors are 1080 and my main is an AOC 2k curved

#

But even with just 2 monitors i get similar lag

#

Id like to upgrade my gpu to a Radeon but im still trying to figure out what one to choose. My current gpu has 8gb and id like to get one with 12-16

#

Maybe i should downgrade the amount of monitors I'm running until i can afford a better GPU.i heard the amd 6800xt was good

devout forum
#

It's currently basically the meta

wise wigeon
#

the 6800xt is?

coarse idol
#

Well until i can afford the upgrade what do you think the best thing is to help my problem? The 3060ti seems to be able to support 3 monitors of 1440 and im running only 1

#

Originally i was under the impression my cpu is just underpowered but now I'm unsure lol

wise wigeon
#

and what would that be

wise wigeon
#

i mean just running 3 monitors whouldn't be that much of a stressor

dense locust
wise wigeon
#

in a game with a bunch of stuff going maybe

dense locust
#

im reading that can cause issues

wise wigeon
#

but just watching youtube doesnt make sense

dense locust
#

watching video should just be cpu shouldnt it?

wise wigeon
#

my 3080 had 10 gb of vram and i was running 3 monitors for a while with no issue

dense locust
#

its a software conflict

#

dunno what is the software causing it tho

coarse idol
dense locust
wise wigeon
#

it isnt doing you any favors

coarse idol
#

Cause now that I’m thinking more of it, I didn’t used to have this problem of choppy YouTube videos while playing a game until they recently updated their overlay system

dense locust
#

cant hurt to try

#

oof

coarse idol
#

I’ll definitely have to try that out

wise wigeon
#

man i havent activated windows in a while but dark mode would be nice

dense locust
#

just take a little visit to github

coarse idol
#

Would having OBS run in the background for game clips cause performance issues? I really only use the overlay of Nvidia for instant replay captures

#

I mean I'll try either way but still

wise wigeon
#

and i'm also not knowledgable enough to go through code for myself

dense locust
#

when i build my new pc and i cant activate my new pc with my old code i paid full price for im just using a script

wise wigeon
#

he i never paid for windows so

dense locust
#

im still on windows 10

wise wigeon
#

the watermark is engraved in my veins

dense locust
#

i dunno if i even want to update

#

i have heard nothing good about 11

wise wigeon
#

well 10 and 8 keys work on 11

wise wigeon
dense locust
#

people have tested that ryzen performance on 11 is worse

wise wigeon
#

before an update yeah

dense locust
#

dunno how they achieved that

dense locust
wise wigeon
#

iirc windows 11 was built around the big and little cores of intel

coarse idol
#

Windows being dog water has made me want to give Linux a try

#

But it's scary using a new os 🥺

dense locust
#

i tried linux

#

i dont wanna learn console commands to do anything

coarse idol
#

Can't you just download a premade overlay instead of doing it all yourself? I've only looked into it a little bit myself

lone mango
#

Nobara is not like that

#

I think cachyos is like that too

#

Not sure but thats what it seems like from the couple things I saw

#

I ahould install it and see

coarse idol
lone mango
#

Easy to use

dense locust
#

"you should use (distro)"
"na that distro sucks use (distro)"

coarse idol
lone mango
lone mango
#

But the point of nobara is to not have terminal open much at all

dense locust
lone mango
#

Basically different linux versions

dense locust
#

thank you thank you im here all day

coarse idol
#

Ya know i was gonna assume that but didn't want to feel how i did in 6th grade giving the wrong answer lol

lone mango
coarse idol
#

I assume most things are compatible with Linux tho right?

dense locust
#

most

#

As long as you don’t want to play any multiplayer games or use industry software

lone mango
#

They all do things the same but a little differently from each other

wise wigeon
#

really most of the major games with anticheat

lone mango
#

For the most part yeah but some games with anticheat wont work. Or some games will run but you get banned

#

Destiny for example will ban you if on linux

coarse idol
#

I see so i should continue to use windows for such things then. I guess i can what's boot into Linux off an external drive to test drive the experience

dense locust
#

Linux more like midux

coarse idol
wise wigeon
#

even muta the linuxhead has a bends the knee to play siege

lone mango
#

Well technically all major anticheat software works on linux but the devs of whichever game intentionally dont let linux in basically

#

Like gta for example

#

The put in battleye which can work on linux but the devs did not let linux access online servers

#

Apex did the same thing

coarse idol
# lone mango What games you play

The finals, monster hunter, balders gate, various vr titles and various indie multiplayer games. I'm mainly worried about the finals and others that i may download in the future that use anti cheat

wise wigeon
#

mh doesnt have an anticheat

lone mango
#

Honestly you can do linux if you wish

wise wigeon
lone mango
#

Finals idk about

wise wigeon
#

he has nvidia

coarse idol
#

Does Nvidia not like Linux?

lone mango
#

Nvidia works pretty well on linux now

coarse idol
#

Well if not i plan on switching to amd in the future anyways

wise wigeon
#

aint no way a nexon game is gonna let you chill on linux

coarse idol
#

I know most of my games should run fine but there's always a one off game that uses anti cheat so maybe having a second os on my ssd can be used for that

coarse idol
lone mango
wise wigeon
#

well im just seeing hella posts on updates borking it

#

so it goes from working to ez anticheat not letting you in

lone mango
coarse idol
#

Well with it also rising in popularity it may change too

#

It may just completely stop working

wise wigeon
#

it being on the rise is just relative to before

#

its nowhere near the install bases that most devs would care

lone mango
lone mango
wise wigeon
#

and most of the rise in the gamer pop is due to the deck and steam os

#

which for the most part isnt used for bigger multiplayer games

lone mango
#

And linux people are literally autistic, they will literally make cheats and share code and make forks of the code and make a cheat for something

wise wigeon
#

i love tinkering with the thing but its not great for games that require fast reaction time

#

its mostly something i charge up for use for a trip

lone mango
wise wigeon
#

i can imagine

coarse idol
#

Now my main reasoning for wanting to switch is I've heard it's overall better than windows. Wether that be bloatware, updates, software compatibility issues, navigation, etc. How accurate is that statement actually?

wise wigeon
#

compatibility is a lol

lone mango
#

Well you could get away with the first two

wise wigeon
#

its good but companies are always gonna priritize bigger install bases

lone mango
#

Last depends on what type of desktop environment you pick

#

But compatibility varies

#

Photoshop for example

#

Nah

wise wigeon
#

i mean we're talking game compatibility now

lone mango
#

Actually anything adobe

#

Oh yeah game compatibility is good with proton and ge proton

wise wigeon
#

navigation is a weird talking point

#

windows and macos are pretty braindead

#

if youre a mostly singleplayer person linux is probably fine

#

if anything the community finds a way

#

but for multiplayer games its very hit or miss

coarse idol
#

Yeah the gaming aspect seemed fine aside from anti cheat but i didn't really think of other software being incompatible. Granted i don't use anything Adobe

#

Makes sense tho

wise wigeon
#

like basic stuff you're probably fine

#

weird niche stuff, devs might not have the resources to work with

lone mango
#

I should try one day

#

Honestly besides the finals being iffy I would say split your windows partition and put nobara linux on the empty space

#

Worst case scenario you dont like it and reformat that partition on windows

lone mango
#

Like why bother when 4% of market share

#

In curious to see whats gonna happen later this year. Not expecting anything huge but just curious

lone mango
#

Some people think when October arrives that linux will explode after w10 goes eol but thats not happening

lone mango
coarse idol
wise wigeon
#

people stayed on windows 7 far past eol

coarse idol
wise wigeon
#

people stayed on xp far past eol

lone mango
wise wigeon
#

xp was still on school pcs til i got to high school

lone mango
#

Linux will get a small bump but thats it

#

Probably like 1% lol

#

A lot of people will just stay on 10, maybe even most people will

wise wigeon
#

a good amount will upgrade because honestly its no skin off their back

lone mango
#

Yeah I wonder if its as split as I think. Lets see how many people stick around after October

wise wigeon
#

because 11 is fine, not good but it works fine for the most part

#

its pretty much the same story as windows has always been

#

fine when it works, catastrophic when it fails

coarse idol
#

Anytime I have faith in Windows ever

lone mango
#

Doesn’t even look real it looks like a video game item

wise wigeon
#

eh not that diff from theit 40 series oems

lone mango
#

4 slot cards just look strange

coarse idol
#

How does the rx 9070 compare to the 50 series?

wise wigeon
#

people would rather mangle their case ovee reinstalling the cpu cooler

wise wigeon
lone mango
#

That guy is just low iq

wise wigeon
#

nah youde have to remove the cooler

lone mango
#

Wait I know that case

wise wigeon
#

but like its low iq

lone mango
#

I used to use jt

#

Coolermaster something 200

Nah you can put it in at an angle and fish it in there

I tried doing some research and seems like they fall in line with most brands. Maybe some of the AMD brands have good support but it seems like with EVGA gone, there's no truly top-tier brands left that hit all the boxes for support, quality, price, etc.

pulling 279w on 1080ti 1 & 290w on 1080ti 2. My guess is because I assigned 1080ti 2 as PhysX

#

temps 72/76 & 70/84 GPU/Hotspot respectively

#

only playing 1440p with 75fps limit cuz this is one of my side monitors lol

#

poor 1080ti 1 has like no space to pull in air tho

I see I see. I guess it's a pretty safe bet that someone might want a B650/9600X build then? I think that's what that board/cpu is

cpu for this build is a 9600X, only $180

the problem is they lack the understanding of technology and dont have enough knowledge to ask questions and just go along with it. i have a few friends in their late 60's and they think you can still trust strangers at their word. this isnt the 60s anymore, everyone sucks now

Is there a unanimous bang for your buck gpu rn?

idle nexus

it looks like it's mSATA so dunno if there's a setting in BIOS to switch to that. Also, it's possible the previous owner just pulled the old M.2 & put a new one but never formatted, etc.

Probably 6700 xt

I checked little over a month ago and it was unaffected

should I do that over the 7900 xt?

that's a considerable performance hit
