2x16gb bdie is like more expensive now than it was in 2021 somehow

sinful blade
#

It sucks

hot pumice
#

Proof: I had it

hot pumice

dr s8b so expensive

idle nexus

How many people harass your dms just because there’s a girl in it? @hot pumice
I know you’re actually a girl but ghosty was just talking about getting a bunch of dms because of their pfp even though they’re a dude

fresh timber

I would burn my switch 1 in a fire if my parents didn’t pay for it

misty sparrow

Four hundred dollars is more than a Series S

that's too high

im gonna stuff the case under my desk with the rear io facing forward lol

lol I have Switch 1 & it truly is a pathetic piece of hardware

rancid juniper

isn't the switch 2 handheld at the same level of a BASE PS4 tho?

rancid juniper

im sure the switch 1 games will have like a FPS/Res upgrade patch for the next console

they better not resell it tho

fresh timber
#

I’m ngl, the new Pokémon game looks slow and boring lol

misty sparrow
#

is it really a surprise?

rancid juniper

but its nintendo they'll likely do that tactic

No that's just growing up

Pokemon games are just too formulaic

hot pumice

#

now see, what Pocketpair should do is port Palworld to the Switch 2 as a launch title

idle nexus
#

lol yessss

rancid juniper
#

scarlet and violet was their first attempt at full open world but the game was so trash as a result

mortal grail
#

You grow up by realising pokemon is the same formula with graphic changes over 30 years

idle nexus
#

that would be funny

fresh timber
#

Play pal world easy

idle nexus
#

doubt Nintendo would go for it but

rancid juniper
idle nexus
#

I mean do they have to?

misty sparrow
#

it wasn't?

rancid juniper
#

just has large maps

#

yea

dense locust

much better

How much do decks go for, these days

Pine can look nice when stained

#

Takes a lot of work tho

#

I don't recommend

misty sparrow
#

what about birch?

idle nexus
#

lol I think they make PVC that looks like wood

rancid juniper
#

like when i saw that Legends Z-A trailer (next pokemon game) it looked so bland

idle nexus
#

sure it's plastic but it should last a loooooong time

mortal grail
#

No birch here

Only aussie gum, pine, oak

I'm proud to say my last experience with pokemon was years ago with soulsilver

i was doing mine for april fools too but i am not changing it back

I experienced the top of the mountain and left

I played Sword on Switch

misty sparrow

the profile is me

rancid juniper

the last optimized pokemon game on switch

Then I played palworld and captured humans

Take that out of context

#

LMAO

idle nexus
#

caught people in Palworld weren't really that great for like working on the base & stuff iirc

#

tbh Palworld was pretty heckin cool until I unlocked flying around

#

then it made all the work I did getting there feel like kind of like a waste of time

rancid juniper
#

bro's enjoyment faded right after that

misty sparrow
#

every open world is like that

rancid juniper
#

😂

misty sparrow
#

it's why people are pissed about that friendly ghast in Minecraft

you can go wherever you want, fly wherever you want with no downsides

I assume its slow tho

But still

#

We love modded Minecraft

idle nexus
#

at least in Fallout 4 it lets you fast travel from the beginning. It may not be the greatest feature to have but at least the expectations are set early

lone mango
#

I have a mod called immersive aircraft and you can build a plane that can be upgraded and fueled

misty sparrow
#

fast travel is probably one of the laziest features in open world games

#

same thing with mission markers

Misinput of bubbles

idle nexus
#

ever notice how in FO4 & even stinky Starfield, most places have a locked door at the beginning that you end up unlocking at the end to leave again? like a circle

misty sparrow
#

everything is a misinput if you try hard enough

rancid juniper
#

ok ill admit

Wind in le asophaegus

heard of it but chose viva new vegas instead

#

still unoptimized

dammit... I feel like lately if I want to download or upgrade like 90% of crap on my computer I have to disable pihole for 5 minutes

The game can also glitch out at the start and the horse carts become manifestations of satan

No mods, FNV and FO3 are two of the most unstable games I've played on PC

I love Fallout 4 ngl

misty sparrow
#

I started with Fallout 4 and even then I knew it was very strange to be given a minigun and power armor, and can easily kill a deathclaw at the start of the game

Starfield though, I think we can all agree was terrible

it's almost fun

Pipe weapons are purely a role playing weapon type

They serve no use outside of being trashed

Now if you happen to find an explosive minigun (or have the mod that allows you to turn any normal minigun into a 50 cal explosive one)
Then it's viable

rancid juniper

I still remember the stupid amounts of fun I had with that mod

only used pipe weapons because ammo for them was very plentiful

it would be cool if they made a remade version of Elder Scrolls 2

heard about it the other day and it was incredibly innovative for its time

they could also do it with the first game but the map for that game is about as big as Russia so don't know how they'd manage that

# tranquil pebble Bethesda is the kind of company to put a machine gun musket in a game

Fallout 4 sports some of the goofiest weapon designs in gaming, which don't make sense nor do they look pretty. In this video I'll be exposing bethesda for their laziness, poor design decisions, and lack of attention to detail when it comes to the guns . liek and subcrib 4 more fallout 4 vids

seems like a convoluted way to just use a 4tb nvme drive...?

unreal chasm

I guesss🙄

#

I meant 4tb each also

#

I was going a cheaper route

#

have a 1tb nvme already but need mass storage for games

#

was looking into ssds but considering hdds

worthy meteor
#

2.5in drives don't really end up cheaper than m.2 drives nowadays

#

especially if you want decent sata drives

#

usually more expensive for a sata 2.5in drive than a m.2 drive of the same capacity

#

HDDs still end up cheaper at higher capacities though

unreal chasm

how does bandwidth go when using 2 m.2s

there's no lane sharing on that board, MSI just decided to not give more than x4 lanes to the second x16 slot no matter what for whatever reason

That doesn't cost more than like 120

And a case preferable with fans

Im liking this one but idk how the fans are gonna be

Also is the dual lane thing important on the motherboard? I ended up with a 850, but im seeing things about the lane splitting, what is that and does it matter to me?

2x tb ran in raid for game storage and a 500gb for windows, but I thought about making the boot drive the raid pool

would that be a bad idea

Any raid with redundancy wouldn’t be a bad idea

@deep parcel idk if you saw the q&a post from like 10 days ago, looks like roadcraft will likely be getting fuel/damage as well in a "hard mode" (or at least it's being seriously considered for a future update)

❓Q: Is there a possibility of a Hard Mode later after launch with fuel management and damage? (@Vic502)
✅A (V.Y.): Absolutely🙂
also wheel support should be fixed by release hopefully
❓Q: All folks before me said almost all things that i had in mind but i will add just this one annoying thing: Any chance to fix bug with logitech g29 wheel, it conflicts with mouse movements on PC, so when ever you move mouse to move camera, wheel gets crazy or stops working (@Sarajlija)
✅A (V.Y.): All the wheels are in active debugging right now, there are a couple of "big" issues with them. But should be alright by release, our hardware support team does everything it can at the moment.

also i ended up preordering the game on steam lol

yall can someone answer this question for me, is their a difference in performance of using a pcie 4 riser vs pcie 5 riser, even if its minimal please let me know

mortal grail
#

At best 1%

#

And in it's place you spend 2 to 3x the price

#

So it's not worth it at all even on a 5090

storm umbra
#

will it have any issues connecting to the 9070xt?

#

or will it all run fine on first startup

might need to switch the generation to gen 4 (rather than auto) if it is not posting

What's the specs of both?

wicked oriole

Im overpaying i know

But imma show you cause I want to test the timing and don't wanna tune myself lol

devout forum
#

That's either godlike value 48
Or overpriced 32 lol

hoary zodiac

You probably shouldn't overpay anyways

There is little different between the cheapest and most expensive kits

wicked oriole

Why not 🤔

It's overpriced AF

wicked oriole

cl26??

devout forum
#

You can probably get a same capacity 6000CL30 for half the price

hoary zodiac
#

You're spending a lot of money

storm umbra

i would go with cl30 broski

hoary zodiac
#

For not that much gain

devout forum
#

Half the price, lose practically nothing

storm umbra
#

189 dollars is crazy for 48gb

hoary zodiac
#

$189 is crazy for any ram tbh

devout forum
#

That's like

#

A CPU upgrade very nearly

hoary zodiac
#

That's like a 64GB kit's worth

devout forum
#

On the price difference

hoary zodiac
#

Or yeah

storm umbra
#

theirs a white version too if u want it instead

wicked oriole
#

We kind of going overboard at this point lmao

hoary zodiac
#

You'll get more performance by getting a better cpu instead of spending all that money of ram

wicked oriole
#

It will be on a 9800x3d

storm umbra
#

you can literally get 2 sets of 2 32gb ram for 200 dollars

hoary zodiac
#

The gains would be marginal

storm umbra
#

buy 2 32gb ram and you get 64 for literally around the same amount

hoary zodiac
#

Considering you're not tuning the ram anyways

devout forum
hoary zodiac
#

The value is even worse

storm umbra
#

but realistically you only need 32

devout forum
#

Like

storm umbra
#

not worth upgrading

This is so pointless

The only crowd this ram would appeal to

Is ram tuners

#

I mean
Technically it does

hoary zodiac
#

It does if you tune the ram

devout forum
#

But not at double the price
That's just ridiculous

hoary zodiac
#

And even then

#

I'd literally rather just wait until CPUs that can run at higher frequency come out

#

And then get a new kit of ram

devout forum
#

I wouldn't bother getting that expensive memory unless I build a PC to claim several overclocking world records

hoary zodiac
#

That'll cost the same

#

But with net performance gain

devout forum
#

So even that argument is a bit thin

hoary zodiac
#

It's also trident Z royal so

#

The price is inflated

wicked oriole
#

Yeah tbh the looks of it just had me sold ngl

#

A take my money moment 😭

You can still cancel right?

wicked oriole

Yeah imma do it

They're on back order anyways so it won't be a week or 2 til they ship

devout forum
#

What do you have rn?

wicked oriole
#

Well I'm basically building a pc now. My little brother is getting my old one and I'm gonna be on newer hardware

devout forum
#

Ah

wicked oriole
#

Were basically to the point of no budget limit, but I guess as good as my $ can get without it being crazy. Like no $300+ mobo, 200+ aio 300+ case and fans ya know

#

I'm fine with splurging a bit on hardware if worth and with the rams case looks lol

#

But if the ram isn't worth then I'll look at other options

hoary zodiac
#

splurging doesn't really get you much

#

the pc market doesn't work that way really

wicked oriole
#

I know

hoary zodiac
#

there is a point of dimishing return for every part

wicked oriole
#

That is also a valid point

hoary zodiac
#

by diminishing returns

#

I mean a literal cliff

wicked oriole
#

Which is still weird to me but I get it

devout forum
#

You're honestly best standing ON the cliff edge

Optimized performance for lowest possible price

If you need to play lowballer to get it, go for it

#

You never used appimages before?

hoary zodiac
#

contrary to what a certain ceos say

wicked oriole
#

Also thank you guys very much!

hoary zodiac
#

the less you pay the more you save... to a certain extent

devout forum
#

Ironic that I keep saying that

Because I am too poor to do it myself kek

hoary zodiac
#

even if you are loaded there is no reason to overspend

lone mango
#

Instead of using the repo or flatpak you get the app image

#

I guess you can say its like an iso but application instead

devout forum
#

I really wanna make a rig that's like legitimately a good base to keep for long (with strategic upgrades)

hoary zodiac
#

but the thing with that is

#

you never know how long a platform will really last

#

you can make predictions

devout forum
#

I mean

#

AM5 is still likely the place to be at

hoary zodiac
#

yeah

devout forum
#

That's why I wanna standardize all the PCs of the family to AM5

lone mango
#

Or you think you have THE thing but what you actually wanted was something else and didn't know

#

Happened to me a couple times

devout forum
#

Easy parts sharing and troubleshooting

hoary zodiac
#

value combined with a some predictions can end up with a "future proof" rig

#

how "future proof" it is

#

is up to the future

#

future proofing isn't really a thing

#

Lemme put it this way
I wanna have a mobo+RAM combo that's gonna hold up to a later CPU and GPU upgrade

hoary zodiac
#

gpu is easy considering that pcie bandwidths aren't really much of a concern these days

#

then again

#

OEMS could troll with gen 6 x8 or something

lone mango
#

5090 finally saturated pcie 3 I think we'll be good

Gonna take a very long time to be bandwidth limited with 5x16 or 6x8

27" 4k is actuallyy dumb tho

#

you want 32+ for 4k

fresh timber
#

A lot enjoy the PPI of 27” 4k

devout forum
#

Even at 32 inches the PPI is already high

#

27" just wastes it

#

and 27" 4k is more expensive because of how tiny each pixel must be

#

and no

#

you CANNOT tell

#

No matter how many times you claim

#

People like shroud (legitimate pro esports players) can't tell

fresh timber

Just googling 4k 27” shows a lot of praise

Yeah because they cost an arm and a leg (even more than 32" ones)

Hi! Does anyone know what's causing this issue: "Oops! There’s an issue with your account. If you’d like us to look into this for you, please click here?"
I registered an account two weeks ago and immediately ordered PC components to be delivered to my friend's address in the UK, paying with my own card (I live in a different country that Newegg doesn't ship to).

The order was confirmed, but when I went to check the shipping status, I couldn't log into my account. The money was refunded, which I'm very glad about. I followed the provided link and submitted a request to have my account unblocked. However, it's been two weeks, and the account still hasn't been restored. I'm also unsure if a new account wouldn't get blocked again.

I'd really like to know why this issue occurred.
