Why Newegg has all these 9950X3D bundles with garbage MB and garbage RAM but don’t sell them solo.

hoary zodiac
#

because nobody buys 5200 CL40 (for obvious reasons)

#

big corp wants money

You will buy a 4800mt/s cl99 16gb ram kit

Just traded a dead 1060, 1700x, and garbage ram for some Corsair sp120 fans with a hub

I hate to say it but that's a lot of trade for some fans

I would've kept the 1700X lol. Use that for a home lab build or something

Check your GPU connectors No graphics card is safe? We have another case of a melted power cable involving the new graphics card series equipped with a 12V-2×6 power connector. However, this particular case is specifically about the power cable, not the connector, which has melted. An X/Twitter user, ere9w, posted several videos showing that […]

cost more than my CPU though

crazy wild that with a custom power tune and locking the framerate to my monitor's hz the gpu pulls less than 150w while running it at 1440p max + 4x MSAA

Does peak above 170w at more intensive scenarios

# devout forum Warzone is lime 145 gigs too

Manage your dlc to remove "warzone 2024" or the free trial(which includes portions of Bo6 mp). Warzone should only be 77GB. I hate how they do COD HQ lol but if you figure out how to use it it's better than the MW2019, cold war, and vanguard situation.

Just like a real Tesla. Showy but useless derpyBlob

slate fractal

but like whats even the point of nvidia teslas?? i see them everywhere on ebay for dirt cheap but what are they used for

nocturne flicker
#

They were workstation cards

#

You used them for large calculations, simulations and higher end image generation

#

Not gaming

slate fractal
#

yeah well the title on the listing says gaming right there so surely its meant for gaming

nocturne flicker
#

Nope

#

Just people trying to take advantage of less informed people or they are less informed, see gpu and think it is automatically a gaming gpu

dusk knot
#

Always do your research, kids

worn wave
pliant berry
#

people did use tesla gpus for gaming, especially during gpu shortage. you would use a old server class gpu like that for the actual game and have a low power gpu or igpu for the video out. but some people also run gaming VMs that they run on servers to remote into kind of like geforce now and the like

We won't go to space and do space stuff out of a need to better the state and understanding humanity, we'll do it because Billionaires have so much cash they don't know what to do with it

#

OH YEA

#

sorry my bqd guys

hoary zodiac
#

Please post a pcpartpicker list

velvet summit
#

and the more complex a robot is the more difficult it is to fix it when something inevitably goes wrong

hoary zodiac
#

And well

#

For robots not so much

hoary zodiac

We don't know their motherboard

velvet summit

MSI PRO B650-S WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard

#

oh

hoary zodiac
#

What are the specs of the rest of the pc

bold flower
#

ill send the link to my pcpartpicker

hoary zodiac
#

If you can post a pcpp link we can do more than just a case recommendation

worn wave
bold flower
velvet summit
#

like if a building has stairs, then make the robot be able to climb stairs with like tank tracks or those wheels that can go up stairs
if the robot needs to traverse a long distance then maybe make it go in a self driving car, or have busses or trains with storage for robots

bold flower
#

also do you guys know if theres a good mobo for a little bit cheaper if not then its okay

hoary zodiac
#

I'd swap that ssd out

bold flower
#

it just went up in price unfortunately

hoary zodiac
#

I'll just overhaul the whole list really

bold flower
#

whats that mean

nocturne flicker
#

I mean, nobody said robots had to be 1 to 1 replicas of humans, that is just the most often imagined form because it makes the most sense instinctively

velvet summit
#

idk

#

does it make sense? not really to me tbh
at least not after working with robots

bold flower
#

whats he mean overhaul the list

hoary zodiac
nocturne flicker
#

It makes sense on an instinctive level as in we naturally think that something to replace a human in all situations would have to basically be exactly like a human, not that it actually works in reality

velvet summit
#

for better value ones

hoary zodiac
#

For all the yankees in chat

#

Is AliExpress still an option

nocturne flicker
#

Yankees =/= American in America

hoary zodiac
#

Or has tariffs destroyed that venue

hoary zodiac
velvet summit
#

apparently trump added exceptions to computers and phones from the tarrifs recently but idk

hoary zodiac
#

That sounds like a eu4 name placement

#

"Castilian Castile"

nocturne flicker
#

In the US a Yankee is a specific type of American from either New England or Northern US depending on who you are talking to

#

Or a baseball team

bold flower
#

like is it gonna be rainbow forever

hoary zodiac
#

Either that or marketing jargon

velvet summit
#

where did you see "fixed rgb"

hoary zodiac
#

You can turn off the RGB

#

IIrc there was documented cases of US troops coming over to Europe during WW1 and being called yanks and they took offense to it because they were from Georgia derpyBlob

For cheaper

#

but the reviews say it shuts down randomly

nocturne flicker
#

I think it was the French who did it

bold flower
#

but the other one says it doesnt

#

or like nobody mentions that issue

hoary zodiac
#

Here's the thing about reviews

#

Unless it's an in depth review by a reputable tech site

#

Sometimes it's isolated cases that happens to every ssd

bold flower
#

ohhhh

hoary zodiac
#

So product page reviews can be meaningless at times

bold flower
#

i apologize

hoary zodiac
#

I've had a well reviewed ssd die on me

bold flower
#

its my first pc so i just wanna be sure yk

bold flower
hoary zodiac
#

Yes

bold flower
#

also are fans expensive if i want to switch them out?

mental yoke
#

they can be

bold flower
#

or is there another case that has rgb that i can adjust from rainbow

mental yoke
#

there are many

hoary zodiac
#

Updated list

bold flower
#

oh bet

#

so i can change the color on those?

hoary zodiac
#

Provided that you have an ARGB controller

#

I will check your motherboard

#

Stand by

bold flower
#

yes!

hoary zodiac
#

Yes

bold flower
#

is there any other case perchance that is still good that i can just change it from rainbow to white or literally even a case with no rgb would be fine

hoary zodiac
#

There are ARGB headers on your motherboard

bold flower
#

for cheaper

hoary zodiac
#

You could go microatx

bold flower
#

mmm

#

i want room to upgrade

hoary zodiac
#

although at this price

#

Pretty much none of the good cases come with argb fans

#

You don't want to compromise on airflow either

bold flower
#

well if theres a better case with no rgb im chill with that

#

yes yes

hoary zodiac
#

There is in fact not

bold flower
#

oh.

#

OKAY LOL yes ill get it then

hoary zodiac
#

I don't take RGB into account when I looked for the case

bold flower
#

and the fans

hoary zodiac
#

It was the cheapest that I'd go for

bold flower
#

oh good thank you

hoary zodiac
#

Except for the matx csses

bold flower
#

micro atx?

hoary zodiac
#

Alternatively

#

This is also a good option around the same price

#

WAIT

bold flower
#

oh wait i can send a picture the ones at the bottom say something about capability on the build

hoary zodiac
#

These have argb fans supposedly

sinful blade
#

You’ll wanna replace most base fans if it’s a cheap case

#

Sama has decent ones

bold flower
hoary zodiac
#

I might try to work on the gpu

hoary zodiac

#

OH

sinful blade
#

Adjustable RGB

#

Or addressable

#

Whichever

bold flower
proud jackal
bold flower
#

either of you guys sorry

hoary zodiac
#

Nope

bold flower
#

cuz it says additional power may be needed or so

hoary zodiac
#

The additional EPS12v is generally not needed in most cases

#

Especially not with that cpu

bold flower
#

oh really

hoary zodiac
#

I'll try to find a better psu regardless

bold flower
#

okay but what if i wanna upgrade the cou later on id havw to get a new

#

oh

#

is there a better psu rn?

#

for a little bit more?

hoary zodiac
#

Here's an alternative list with a better psu

#

You might want to consider getting a used graphics card

#

A used 5700XT might be cheaper

bold flower
#

oh wait

#

nvm sorry lol i cant

#

wait

#

which is the graphics card

hoary zodiac
#

The A750

bold flower
#

oh wait yea where can i get one

hoary zodiac
#

Where to get... What exactly?

bold flower
#

the 5700xt

#

also what is a 5700xt

hoary zodiac
#

I'd get it used

#

It is a graphics card

bold flower
#

this?

hoary zodiac
#

Do not buy it new

bold flower
#

is it still compatiablr with the parts?

hoary zodiac
#

It is not worth the price

bold flower
#

oh

hoary zodiac
#

Buying it used would be advisable

bold flower
#

i think then ill hust get the other gpu

#

cuz idk i like cheaper but

hoary zodiac
#

You'd be getting a lot more performance

bold flower
#

reliable i feel

hoary zodiac
#

It's not just cheaper

bold flower
#

but i cant get it used

hoary zodiac
#

Very unfortunate

bold flower
#

or where is reliable

#

used

hoary zodiac
#

Ebay

bold flower
#

wait then should i just swap it out

#

its only a 9 dollar difference

#

is the performance that much better?

hoary zodiac
#

where are you getting the 9 dollar difference figure from

bold flower
hoary zodiac
#

That is used

#

Also I'd trust amazon marketplace less than ebay

bold flower
#

oh.

#

lemme download ebay

#

and ill get back to you

#

whats the

#

um

hoary zodiac
#

Used marketplace on amazon isn't the most trustworthy

bold flower
#

gpu

#

exact name?

bold flower
hoary zodiac
#

There are several

bold flower
#

several?

hoary zodiac

RX 5700 XT
RX 6700 XT
RX 6750 XT
RX 6800
RX 6800 XT
RX 7700 XT
RTX 2070 Super
RTX 2080 TI (may require a 750w psu)

#

The cheapest one in this list will do

bold flower
#

IS THIS GOOD?

#

did i hit the jackpot

tranquil pebble
#

imagine putting a modern desktop cooler on a 2001 laptop CPU

hoary zodiac
#

That's decent

#

I'd look around for others too

#

Other gpus on the list are more powerful

bold flower
#

oh wait

hoary zodiac
#

Also keep in mind shipping to your country

#

I assume you are located in Japan?

bold flower
#

wait its not compatible

#

which ones are better

hoary zodiac
#

It absolutely is

bold flower
#

really

#

but it doesnt show on pcpartpicker

hoary zodiac
#

Pcpartpicker is not all encompassing

bold flower
#

BUT

#

okay well which ones on the list are better?

#

that doesnt chnage the psy

#

psu

hoary zodiac
#

6800XT

#

Actually not sure about that one

#

To be fair even if you change the psu

#

If the gpu's under $199

#

The net price will probably still be less than the original list

bold flower
#

oh thats right

#

so just the 5700 xt

#

the one that i sent

#

also how am i supposed to know its compatible

hoary zodiac
#

You ask people who know it's compatible

bold flower
#

i dont want to have to return it i dont have lots of monue

hoary zodiac
#

Absolutely

#

I'd order a gpu from japan if possible

#

If that's where you're located

bold flower
#

im in america

bold flower
hoary zodiac
#

Oh you're in the US?

#

So the japanese amazon listing was just a funny

hoary zodiac
#

The only possible way this wouldn't work

#

Is if the gpu arrives broken

bold flower
#

but i thought pcpartpicker was reputable

hoary zodiac
#

Ebay has very strong buyer protection

bold flower
#

why doesnt it like idk say it works

hoary zodiac
#

That's not how the site works

#

Pcpartpicker is a tool

#

It doesn't tell you everything

bold flower
#

but it says compatible products

hoary zodiac
#

They don't take into account every part in existence

#

Especially used parts

bold flower
#

but i looked it up normally

#

not used or anything

hoary zodiac
#

What?

#

It's used

#

The listing states that it is used

bold flower
#

no yes ik but i mean like

#

i didnt put that into pcpp

hoary zodiac
#

I don't see the problem here

bold flower
#

and it still didnt show

hoary zodiac
#

Pcpartpicker does not tell you everything

bold flower
#

but its told me everything so far

hoary zodiac
#

...

bold flower
#

IM SORRY

hoary zodiac
#

oh gott im himmel

bold flower
#

what

hoary zodiac
#

I shall explain it again

#

Pcpartpicker does not provide you with every bit of information in regards to putting together a computer

bold flower
#

yes but like it tells u what works together and what doesnt no?

#

i thought thats what the point of it was

hoary zodiac
#

Not everything

#

It tells you what it knows

royal crow
hoary zodiac
#

There are limitations

bold flower
#

so this just happens to be a limitation with the gpu?

worthy meteor
#

It tells you all it can tell you using easily scraped stats

worthy meteor
#

It has never scraped eBay for listings

bold flower
#

OHHH

#

so u guys are saying that pcpp might say it doesnt exist but

#

it does and it works well

#

but you guys are sure the gpu works with the other parts

worthy meteor
#

You can put it in the pcpp list, it just won't tell you that you can get it from eBay

#

It'll either have a wrong price or no price at all

bold flower
#

oh yes but i couldnt find it when i tried to put it into pcpp

#

with the other parts

worthy meteor
#

What exactly are you trying to put in

bold flower
#

that

#

into

#

this

worthy meteor
fresh timber
#

idk if im wrong but, wouldnt a lowewr end CPU + higher end gpu give more frames

worthy meteor
#

sometimes pcpp won't have the models but it has a good amount of models

bold flower
#

oh its the same one im buying on ebay?

worthy meteor
bold flower
#

and is that better than ASRock Challenger SE OC Arc

wintry vector
worthy meteor
#

it's a tiny bit better

aloottttt better encoders

u can transcode all night with that bad boy

bold flower
worthy meteor
#

av1 transcode doesn't really matter much for gaming

#

and arc drivers kinda suck for gaming

fresh timber
#

they are better than nvidias

worthy meteor
#

anything that's not top 5 performance drops off a cliff

fresh timber
#

i dont see arc gpus bricking them selfs kek

bold flower
#

oh

#

so

#

thats still better anyway?

#

so i should get it?

hoary zodiac
#

It's also $40 cheaper

bold flower
#

truth

wintry vector
#

driver programming is hard, very particular niche that most programmers don't have the skillset for

bold flower
#

how do ik they ship to the us?

hoary zodiac
#

Check the page

wintry vector
#

arc drivers receive frequent updates, so that's good at least

#

not sure what's going on with nvidia's newer cards but if I'm being honest their solution to just about everything tends to be better than everybody else's

hoary zodiac
#

yeah well...

#

Not this generation

#

They've intentionally skill issued their way into trashing the whole gpu market

wintry vector
#

made too much money and stopped caring

worthy meteor
hoary zodiac
#

They gotta make that AI money

#

I hate nvidia

bold flower

#

don't worry, if they keep fumbling, it'll even out the market a little

yea it's an estimate based off of your IP generally

There may be other GPUs on the list that may be cheaper

this decade has been cursed for pc building in so many ways

Hence why it's a good idea to look around a bit more

Games are not electronics

And digital copies of games also don't cross physical borders

makes sense

hopefully for the physical releases it does, considering you're paying for the game card

eh its nintendo theyll still blame the tariffs and raise prices even higher

It might skate by because memory cards are exempt and the physical game cards are technically SD cards but proprietary

Back in my day we had movies we'd flame over because they were really good and we liked them. Now movies are all about who said a word funny derpyBlob

The reason behind the chicken jockey hype is because it was one of the scenes that came out before the movie

What I'm saying is there wasn't an obsession in movie theaters like there is with this

this is basically on the same level as Avengers Endgame

#

im sure if you google youtube movie theater release trailer reaction ud find many

#

its not uncommon

misty sparrow
#

I guess it's a funny thing people are doing because the quote catched on, people flip their nuts, and now TikTok has made it a thing to throw popcorn and drinks around

#

I unironically want to go to a movie theater just to have people throw popcorn around

mental yoke
#

yes a few videos defntly is the world kekw

nocturne flicker
#

Release trailers used to have special showings. There you'd have reactions. At the same time those people did not go on to a movie theater and have a mental breakdown because he said the thing in the movie

misty sparrow
pliant berry
#

because it was a pretty good movie. too invested to start screaming cuz haha funny

nocturne flicker
#

You'd also have early morning showings the day of release that'd have all the fans of something that got adapted into a movie show up at midnight, geek out about their fandom before the showing and then be reasonably chill until after the film was done
