[median frigate]

Yall got any advice on cable management

My last pc was a mess

[tranquil pebble]

given that there are 40 core CPUs that lose to newer 16 core CPUs in multithread... I would not take core count alone

[wary fjord]

https://youtu.be/iI3Efpebr30?t=294 hmm i guess not

5700g and 5700x can be compare right.. i cant find 5700g

6 core but beafy

[median frigate]

@wary fjord do cpus typical come with a thing of thermal paste

If u buy new

[wary fjord]

no

[mortal grail]

5700g ≈ 3700x

[wary fjord]

they came only if it has free cooler

[mortal grail]

Cooler does

[tranquil pebble]

I kid you not. I saw the weakest lineup Zen 2 Threadripper beat a 40-core Xeon from like just a year or two before it

[wary fjord]

its sits under the free cooler that comes with your cpu .. with plastic on it

[median frigate]

Ah okay I think my phantom spirit should have some

[mortal grail]

It does

If it doesn't then the product is wrong

[median frigate]

You think I should get anything else for my build like more fans?

[mortal grail]

It's supposed to

[tranquil pebble]

Zen was an actual godsend for AMD lol

[mortal grail]

Ur fine

[rancid juniper]

Love it when my Radeon GPU crashes when I win a game (ik I undervolted it too low)

Lol

[mortal grail]

A godzend

[tranquil pebble]

So good that Intel is even feeling the hurt in enterprise XD

[wary fjord]

i want atleast 8 cores now a days.. (ironic im still at 6) but yeah 8 will be my minimum if i upgrade

[tranquil pebble]

8 cores is the sweet spot rn IMO

[rancid juniper]

id probably sidegrade to a 14700k once it reaches like $200 or below

[median frigate]

Yeah 24 is the sweet spot

[tranquil pebble]

Talking 8 full cores.

[lone mango]

And its like that now

[median frigate]

Might want to side grade to a threadripper

[lone mango]

You can beat a 2990wx with current gen cpus

[tranquil pebble]

I will be getting an Epyc at some point instead, for multiple reasons

[median frigate]

Actually?

[tranquil pebble]

doesnt need a ton of cores, I just want a system with a ton of lanes again

[tranquil pebble]

yes, can be cheaper

[lone mango]

4 core epyc

[rancid juniper]

lol cant trust any used 13-14th gen intel chip

[tranquil pebble]

Craptor Lake

[median frigate]

My friend had the worst exp with these

[rancid juniper]

rip

[median frigate]

Would always crash so many times

[tranquil pebble]

Alder Lake was strong as hell though

[rancid juniper]

last good intel gen

[median frigate]

His pc was good but it would crash like no other

[sinful blade]

Yeah @wary fjord if it was any less powerful of a cpu, I wouldn’t be upgrading

[rancid juniper]

+being a heater

[tranquil pebble]

Lack of AVX-512 on a lot of Intels is a massive L

[median frigate]

At that point it ain't even worth it I think we lost a couple raids cause of his pc crashing 💀

[acoustic palm]

I managed to convince my friend that Intel isn’t good anymore

[rancid juniper]

[acoustic palm]

Uhhhhhh

[tranquil pebble]

this goes hard too

[acoustic palm]

The controversial one

[gleaming sedge]

i am looking printing something but my modeling skills are defiantly not good enough what like ai generator type thing could i use to make something at least close to what i want

[median frigate]

That's what my friends call me

[tranquil pebble]

Do NOT 3D print AI models!

[rancid juniper]

never knew that

[wary fjord]

the light trail could be better .. it looks out of place

i dont know

[velvet summit]

me when one of the default wallpaper engine wallpapers

[acoustic palm]

The live action one right

[tranquil pebble]

AI generated 3D models come out unoptimized as heck

[wary fjord]

everything is rtx looking ah besides that light trail

[rancid juniper]

LMAO

[rancid juniper]

yes

[tranquil pebble]

synthwave go brr

[rancid juniper]

light trail looking like one solid wall

[gleaming sedge]

i mean what i want wont have much chance for that really

[velvet summit]

they really got the

[tranquil pebble]

Portal 2 best puzzle game ever

[wary fjord]

u have to clean it up 1st

[gleaming sedge]

its just a trailer frame that can fold

[tranquil pebble]

The person in question lacks the skill for that, most likely

as per their own admission

[wary fjord]

u can apply the same skill on "cleaning 3d scan" on "ai generated 3d models"

some yt videos has it

[gleaming sedge]

i could probably do it its just i dont have the trailer to get the measurements i need along with knowing a good way to make parts that would snap together.

[rancid juniper]

jared leto in the movie?

quality gonna tank

😂

[gleaming sedge]

the idea is to make a 1:24th scale of a 4x8ft folding trailer that can actually fold and have moving wheels like the harbor freight one

[mortal grail]

Oh no

[pliant berry]

uwu

[nocturne flicker]

What do you even look for when buying a monitor online? I get the panel discussion but I don't understand DCI P3 and sRGB and HDR ratings

[sinful blade]

Ask @pliant berry or Bacca

[misty sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/baby-punch-that-hurt-dodge-gif-12258824

[acoustic palm]

Bacca left

[sinful blade]

Why

[acoustic palm]

Reasons

[sinful blade]

Okie dokey

[pliant berry]

DCI P3 and sRGB are color spaces. sRGB is the oldest and most common standard for web today but DCI P3 is quickly becoming more popular. DCI P3 is considered more accurate than sRGB and is better if you do any color sensitive work or just like to watch content. HDR is the range of brightness which is mostly used for movies and some games but HDR ratings on lower end monitors are basically useless

[acoustic palm]

You know why

Yes

He’s not in the server

Rs discord

[pliant berry]

for color spaces they usually rate it as a percentage that the panel can cover. so 90% DCI P3 panel can cover 90% of that color space. HDR ratings is usually for peak brightness, sustained brightness and dimming zones which help with blooming

[nocturne flicker]

Mmm

[acoustic palm]

Reasons

[nocturne flicker]

Okay. So if I'm looking at monitors, is there a general minimum on DCI I should look for?

85 or so maybe?

[rancid juniper]

so does that mean that modders/developers can make better versions of physx?

like making it work properly again for Nvidia 50 series

[pliant berry]

well I wouldn't take anything less than 100% sRGB today. 90% DCI P3 is considered pretty good

[rancid juniper]

https://videocardz.com/pixel/nvidia-physx-and-flow-libraries-are-now-fully-open-source

this is so goofy

physx should've been open source years ago since many developers used (HAVOK) or made their own physics engines

[lone mango]

Well at least its open now

[dusk knot]

so how do i use that

[lone mango]

Be game dev

[dusk knot]

this will happen. theyre opening sourcing it because maybe they dont care enough to fix the problem themselves since all their focus is on AI enterprise related activity

[rancid juniper]

absolutely

why spend R&D money on that when the internet can deal with it themselves

though all i see coming out of this is just performance fixes

[dusk knot]

we really dont matter

😭

[rancid juniper]

no kidding?

[dusk knot]

no kidding

😔

[misty sparrow]

no kidding!

[dusk knot]

[lone mango]

Makes them look better for making it open as well

Fake frames enjoyer

[dusk knot]

Yeah, it's not as bad as I thought

Took me a few minutes to get used to it

It was legit disorienting at first

But I adapted

Nothing extreme so far

I returned my 5070ti

Couldn't handle the fake frames

My eyes just go straight to it

[dusk knot]

What game did you try?

[latent dome]

Cyberpunk 2077

its the goto game to test it

[dusk knot]

Hmm

[latent dome]

At night the lights looked all blurry and sorta like shimmery

and the headlamps were a major problem

as they fused the headlamps together losing any detail

[dusk knot]

You did 4x frame gen? I would never go that far

[latent dome]

its the 5070ti

[pliant berry]

bruh really

[dusk knot]

💀

[dusk knot]

what was it?

[pliant berry]

oh that's ublock

forgot to include that bit

[fresh timber]

its good ram

[dusk knot]

glad i use microsoft edge

it still works

[pliant berry]

that's chromium based though

[dusk knot]

hm

still works

[misty sparrow]

imagine using chrome

[worn wave]

Well that could be ungoogled chromium I suppose in which case I'd say it's acceptable

[pliant berry]

it was a chromium based browser. I may have 4 or 5 browsers installed on all my devices, but never vanilla chrome

[worn wave]

Ok yeah fair enough

[lone mango]

Never tried degoogled chromium yet

[misty sparrow]

imagine using chrome web store

[lone mango]

Yeah but I wonder if degoogled still lets you install things like ublock

They needa get ladybird out there already man

[wicked oriole]

Is the thermalright warframe aio have fans i can change?

[lone mango]

Its just google or firefox based stuff

[wicked oriole]

Cause I bought separate fans

[worn wave]

I believe it still has the chrome web store. It's Google chrome with the Google stripped out

[worn wave]

You can usually put whatever fans on the aio radiator (assuming they're the right size)

[misty sparrow]

Isn’t there a way to add extensions by uploading them from your computer or is that just with themes

[wicked oriole]

Awesome thanks

[lone mango]

I think you can

I dont know how though

[worn wave]

I mean I would assume you can use one locally without uploading it to the chrome web store, I haven't looked into it tho

[fresh timber]

ngl

the 1660 super is still a good gpu in 2025 at the right price

[wicked oriole]

why can't i change my resolution size in VirtualBox even when I included installing Guest Addons?

Hey

Why are my airpods pro 2 way louder than the XM5 earbuds? I have an android phone and the volume gets somewhat closer when I enable dobly atmos and even then it's not as loud at max volume... also, it changes the whole EQ which I don't want... is there a way to manually set the dbs of everything?

[median frigate]

💀

[fresh timber]

so like

i said that before u sent ur message

if the motherboard has flashback use it

[median frigate]

I've never used it before

What is flashback

[fresh timber]

goolge bios flashback

[median frigate]

That's pretty simple

I thought it would be more complicated

💀

I was super worried not having an ethernet connection would screw me

[devout forum]

It's generally simple where available

[icy ore]

[lone mango]

Is he right I wonder

4k is crazy tho

[marsh lynx]

Yeah preposterous

Not worth it

[rancid juniper]

4k for 4k gaming

makes sense

[median frigate]

I consider the hws server the brother server to this one

[rancid juniper]

[marsh lynx]

I’d rather buy from the manufacturer

[median frigate]

Wouldn't we all

😔

[pliant berry]

Speaking of which are there any decent 4k or 6k oleds on the market rn no bigger than 27”

[median frigate]

6k exist?

💀

[marsh lynx]

Yeah there’s a couple

[pliant berry]

Yeah im sure they do just not common

[opaque sedge]

Pretty sure there’s only one high refresh rate 4k 27inch oled rn the new fancy asus one

[median frigate]

Someone link me a good oled 1440p 240hz monitor

[marsh lynx]

Why 4k 27 and not 4k 32

[pliant berry]

Hmm

[marsh lynx]

My shii 4k 240 still ass tho

[pliant berry]

32” is too low pixel density. I no like

[marsh lynx]

Bro wants the highest ppi 😂

[median frigate]

Wym

Makes the quality worse?

[marsh lynx]

4k is like native on 65 inches tho

So anything smaller is already maxing

[pliant berry]

Makes it harder to see. I just want to be able to clearly see photo thumbnails that are resolution of 6000x4000

[median frigate]

But isn't it already maxing

[marsh lynx]

Lmaooo

[median frigate]

So there wouldn't be a diff

[pliant berry]

No, can’t see the edges without zooming in

[opaque sedge]

https://rog.asus.com/monitors/27-to-31-5-inches/rog-swift-oled-pg27ucdm/ this is the one it seems

[marsh lynx]

Slight if you’re up close

[median frigate]

Is there a youtube video on pixel density

I gotta look this up

[marsh lynx]

But it’s like what’s the ppi on your phone

[opaque sedge]

Oh wait looks like alienware has one too

https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/alienware-27-4k-qd-oled-gaming-monitor-aw2725q/apd/210-brfr/monitors-monitor-accessories

[median frigate]

800$ is insane

But I guess that's normal for 4k

[opaque sedge]

Nah for oled more like

[pliant berry]

800 hmm. Where is the price on the asus i can’t find

[median frigate]

How cheap can you get 4k for?

[opaque sedge]

Doesn’t seem like its available widely

[median frigate]

I've never looked into anything over 1440p

[pliant berry]

Oh 1200usd hmm

[opaque sedge]

Looks its 979 on best buy

[pliant berry]

Oh that’s not terrible

[opaque sedge]

The alienware one is showing up for me as 750

[pliant berry]

Yeah same old same old

Idk if I should pull the trigger on something like this or wait for others that have higher brightness

[opaque sedge]

Crazy to think 750 was 1440p oled money and still is for many models

[pliant berry]

Yeah prices on monitors go down relatively quickly

Bruh i look at b&h for 4k oled at 27” and they have 3 options ranging from 1k to 10k

[dusk knot]

Oh wow..same price as when 1440p OLEDs came out

[tired epoch]

Hey what do you guys think is the best cheapest pc I can get I have been saving up for a while

[dusk knot]

How much money do you have?

[tired epoch]

around 1000

[dusk knot]

USD?

[tired epoch]

Yeah

[velvet summit]

1k for the pc? or 1k is all the money you have?

[rancid juniper]

is it?

[misty sparrow]

honestly i dont get it

PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X launches weren't as bad

it should really be Xbox One, Switch 2, PlayStation 3

[rancid juniper]

guess he didn't specify by console gen

but yea yours makes sense

[misty sparrow]

switch 2 launch looks worse than xbox one launch in every way except games and specs

[rancid juniper]

Xbox one: "Marketed as some media device"
Switch 2: Horrid price
Playstation 3: Horrid price + Complicated hardware which made it hard to program

[velvet summit]

ironically xbox series x or s would be the best buy due to the library, especially with gamepass

if you only play one or 2 games, just buy them, but if you are not one of those people, get gamepass and play everything

[misty sparrow]

and bc they can run steam sometime soon

[velvet summit]

playstation 5 on the other hand doesnt have any exclusives that are interesting imo

[rancid juniper]

hence the "No games" posts

[velvet summit]

honestly i dont feel like the xbox one was terrible either
probably the least exciting out of all the xbox releases but meh

[rancid juniper]

kinda sad how much xbox lost it's identity

now the next unit is just gonna be a PC with steam support or something

lmfao

atleast PS people will enjoy some cool games from xbox

[misty sparrow]

xbox one singlehandedly undid everything that made Xbox unique

[rancid juniper]

lol absolutely

[misty sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/fresh-prince-ps5-playstation-playstation-5-funny-gif-15276757796989566479

[rancid juniper]

imo, i think the best modern console so far is probably the PS4

followed by the switch

they keep getting games

[misty sparrow]

good price, good hardware, great exclusives (for the time)

[rancid juniper]

^^^

[misty sparrow]

still supported after ten years

cant die

[frigid stag]

i remember saying the same about the ps4 when it was new

stores had way more ps3 games back then

[misty sparrow]

well to be fair by 2015-2016 PS4 got enough games to warrant buying it

[rancid juniper]

would be funny if another 5 years passed and ps5 still has no games

😂

[misty sparrow]

PS5 has had like five years to do the same and nothing happened

[frigid stag]

XD

[misty sparrow]

this gen is basically like those tv streaming boxes you buy from the store

all of them are the same yet different companies make them

[frigid stag]

tbf ps4 has some stutters even in 2018 games

[rancid juniper]

and yet people still find it enjoyable

[frigid stag]

cod ofc

[misty sparrow]

i cant believe PS4 could run red dead redemption 2

[rancid juniper]

🤔

[misty sparrow]

it can even run resident evil 4 remake

it still is an impressive console

[rancid juniper]

power of optimization and idk amd hardware

[frigid stag]

Well u can run rdr2 on a 760 if you tried too

itll run at like 30 fps and low settings

[rancid juniper]

impressive

[frigid stag]

ps4 i think gets 60 fps

[rancid juniper]

60???

whoa

no

[frigid stag]

Is it not?

[rancid juniper]

pretty sure its locked at 30

[misty sparrow]

it is

[frigid stag]

oh it was 60 on the ps4 pro

[misty sparrow]

if you run it on PS5 it's still 30 too

[frigid stag]

you had 2 options for graphics

[rancid juniper]

apparently you need to unlock it using a jailbroken console

[frigid stag]

standard and enriched

but ye 60 on standard

[misty sparrow]

no it isn't

rdr2? no

[frigid stag]

it is

[tranquil pebble]

Random, awful idea: programming language designed to be as difficult to type as possible

[rancid juniper]

doubt RDR2 has a 60fps patch

ive heard many people begging for it

[misty sparrow]

it needs a 60FPS patch

so silly how they can't easily give the PS5 version a patch

[rancid juniper]

AnnoyWHY language

[misty sparrow]

Series X version has 60FPS

i think

[rancid juniper]

because they're lazy

[frigid stag]

its over 30 for sure on the pro maybe 40 fps

[misty sparrow]

no, it's 30

they just bumped the resolution

[rancid juniper]

they had like an enhanced campaign for some titles

i remember sonic unleashed getting like a RES/FPS bump

on Series X

[misty sparrow]

they enhanced a bunch of Xbox 360 titles

so-called people who say you can't tell the difference between 30 and 60FPS, until you show them GTA4 and the enhanced version of GTA4 side by side

[frigid stag]

so are stutters common for anyone else on ps4 or was it just mine?

in 5 year old + games like some of the cod games

[misty sparrow]

weren't common for me but i can see it happening occasionally

sometimes PS4 would get too slow when jumping from a game to the home screen, or when just navigating the UI in general

load times were bad too but pretty sure it's because of the hard drive

[frigid stag]

it mightve been from the hdd but it was stuttering when jumping from the helicopter in cod

[misty sparrow]

have you ever cleaned your PS4 since you got it

[dusk knot]

Lol

[frigid stag]

nope never cleaned it

its been about 8 years now

it also gives a “lan cable disconnected” error from time to time

i thought it was the game servers till it started happening in the home screen

[fresh timber]

Yours buggin

[frigid stag]

probably

hope its just the cable

it did fall on the floor once but it was only on carpet

[fresh timber]

I bought this

Fire phone case ngl

[misty sparrow]

i may be stupid but how does frequency work? if base speed is 3.8GHz then how's it going at 5GHz

i thought "base speed" was something the CPU couldn't go over

[tranquil pebble]

no, there is also turbo/boost speed

[misty sparrow]

so that lets it go on a higher frequency without overclocking?

[tranquil pebble]

yes, been a CPU feature for years

[misty sparrow]

never noticed

[tranquil pebble]

First CPU I remember seeing it on was from like 2009 lol

[misty sparrow]

the more i discover things about computers the more they seem like magic

and while i'm here, should probably get more RAM too

that memory reading doesn't look too great

[tranquil pebble]

yeah I would not want less than 32 GB

and rn 32 GB is not expensive at all

[misty sparrow]

even for DDR5?

[young pulsar]

are you using the stock cooler

i hope not

louder than a jet engine

[misty sparrow]

for the CPU?

[young pulsar]

yes

[misty sparrow]

i'm just using the one that came with my prebuilt

[young pulsar]

what else would have a stock cooler

3060 ti 🥲

[tranquil pebble]

96 GB of DDR5 cost me about $200 lol

[young pulsar]

should've done a custom built

[misty sparrow]

well to be fair whole thing was $600

the entire build

[young pulsar]

how much would you pay for a new pc upgrade hypothetically

[misty sparrow]

if i did it myself it could've gone pretty high

like if i made a new build from scratch or just upgraded parts from my prebuilt

if it's the former, maybe $1,000. if it's the latter, maybe $100 if that's what 32GB ram costs

[fresh timber]

it littrely says its a base clock speed

sidenotet, i turned my cpu some more

i cna pull 180w and stay under 80c

[rancid juniper]

dude, what is going on here?

also fan rpms kinda low for that kind of temp

how much power is it pulling lmao?

[frigid stag]

E cores are real cores

[wary fjord]

divorce speedrun

[rancid juniper]

🤨

[frigid stag]

They’re like skylake cores

Or coffee lake almost

[wary fjord]

e cores are just bloatware cores

to apear big

in count

[frigid stag]

Makes game run better though

Much smoothness

[rancid juniper]

ecores are designed for background tasks in mind

[fresh timber]

240

[wary fjord]

do u accep a 1 p core and 19 e core and call it 20 cores?

[rancid juniper]

makes me think its just 1c/19t

lol

[fresh timber]

E cores by definition are cores

[rancid juniper]

my 7800xt pulls less

[fresh timber]

Lie

Slam it

[wary fjord]

e cores are those who failed to be p cores

sadlife

[frigid stag]

[rancid juniper]

which game?

😳

[fresh timber]

Occt

[rancid juniper]

got it

[fresh timber]

in gaming i never have issues

ima just buy PTM and slap it on

[nocturne flicker]

Your bones are scraped clean by the desolate wind. Your Vault will now surely die, as you have

[rancid juniper]

CPU binning be like:

[frigid stag]

Most games aren’t coded to run on them

[rancid juniper]

very sad

[frigid stag]

Some can like beam eng

But ye some processes do get assigned to them

[fresh timber]

checking a gpu bottlneck on a hybnrid cpu gotta be hard, 50% for me is like slamming my P cores

side note, i like having E cores

i wish games took advantage of E cores

[rancid juniper]

wtf why hotspot so high? @fresh timber

thats nuts

[fresh timber]

lmfao join me

[rancid juniper]

lel no

nevah

[frigid stag]

Actually nvm xeon could work too

And x299

[fresh timber]

ima PTM my gpu

[rancid juniper]

disabling e-cores doesn't make any sense

you bought the cpu, use the whole cpu

[frigid stag]

Truly

[fresh timber]

techncily if u disable it you can gain some frames

u gain more from disabing hyperthreading tho

[rancid juniper]

Nah i want that multicore

[wary fjord]

those pads are so sensitive with dust. make sure u handle it with gloves and no floating dust on your room

[frigid stag]

Anyone suggesting it either plays only csgo or hasn’t paid attention to CPU’s in like 3 years

[fresh timber]

i want to have dust go inside my gpu

[frigid stag]

E cores usually help a lot

[fresh timber]

e cores make it hard to see if im gpu limited cause im never maxed out

[frigid stag]

1 sec

[dusk knot]

😔

[wary fjord]

on the end of the day the final fps matter.

[frigid stag]

Cpu bottlenecked

[dusk knot]

Would make a great prank lol

[fresh timber]

how amy helldivers feels so suttery when i screenshare to discord

😦

[frigid stag]

It wasn’t even using all the cores

[frigid stag]

Might be something to do with hardware accelerated gpu schedule

[fresh timber]

of course

is that settin geven any good
