based on our conversation so far I'm not sure you can access the back of your PC either

fresh timber
#

I broke my sd card?? Terraria won’t load 😦

fair onyx
#

The PC has plenty of air flow, it's just a narrow area that it's inside. None of the cables on the PC can stretch far enough for me to be able to pull it all the way out and lay it on its side, so I have to disconnect everything from the back

fair onyx
#

Or actually, I can access it now

#

I didn't plug everything back in just in case

#

I am not seeing anything for a BIOS flashback unfortunately

#

I do have a USB port for upgrading the BIOS, but I'm pretty sure I have to be able to get into the BIOS to be able to use that

olive plaza
#

I have good news and bad news

#

the bad news is you're going to need to take your PC out of its cubby and there's no way around that

#

The good news is there's literally a button to reset your CMOS to factory settings which will fix your inability to get to the bios

#

it's just located on the motherboard

fair onyx
#

Darn it... I don't think I can get to that without having to remove one of the GPUs, and in order to remove one of the GPUs, I have to disconnect everything in the back and then take it out droid_cry_squish

#

Let me see, maybe I can Jerry rig something to reach underneath it

random osprey
#

tape together 2 small allen wrenches

olive plaza
#

alternatively, take out your second GPU until everything is confirmed working\

#

I know it's probably some sort of war crime to tell an AI bro to take out one of his GPUs but idc

fair onyx
# olive plaza I know it's probably some sort of war crime to tell an AI bro to take out one of...

First off, I am not an AI bro lol

And second, it's not the end of the world, it's just insanely tedious, because then I'll have to feed the cable all the way back through the case again, disconnect everything from the back, and fully remove my computer

Honestly, removing that GPU is one of the lesser bads that I could do, but I'm trying to see if there's any way that I can just not have to remove anything before I do that

olive plaza
#

It's in your username

#

idk what to tell you lol

#

it was also a very tongue-in-cheek statement

fair onyx
#

There's a difference between being an AI enthusiast, and an AI bro. I don't dedicate my entire life to stealing people's content, making slop, scamming people, and supporting really crappy companies

olive plaza
#

as evidenced by the "its probably a war crime" thing lol

fair onyx
#

I focus on the local training community, decentralizing AI, making people non-dependent on really crappy companies like Open AI, and training public domain content

fresh timber
#

I broke it

olive plaza
#

the more defensive you get the funnier this is

fresh timber
#

Oh it went into swap space

olive plaza
#

I was making a generalized funny statement

fair onyx
fair onyx
#

I'm just used to so many people being extremely aggressive over stuff that they don't understand, and lumping me in with a group of people that I actively really really dislike as well lmao

olive plaza
#

I don't even hate on AI bros. I just don't ever listen to anything they say because they actually don't care about the tech side of it

#

They can go be doofuses elsewhere

fresh timber
#

ima brima brb i ran out of ram

#

You know it’s bad when the entire system locks up

fair onyx
#

For me, AI bros damage a ton of the integrity of the stuff that I and other people in my community try to do. We are very much not focused on replacing human creativity and content with slop, but rather teaching people how to utilize these tools to fill in gaps in their abilities, and draw out more of their human creativity

I'm very much a part of the technological research side, and I work for a company that streamlines advertisement pre-viz

fresh timber
#

I have ai bro built into my computer

#

Ai bro button

fair onyx
#

Lol

tranquil pebble
fair onyx
# olive plaza

The irony of the button being literal millimeters away from the battery is insane lmao

#

I'm having to squish myself against the wall, and lay on my side to see into the case, but I might be able to get something to push the button without having to take everything apart

fresh timber
#

I’m a crypto bro

#

What’s worst, crypto or ai bros

olive plaza
#

Einstein bros

#

now i want bagels

fair onyx
#

I think probably AI bros, because not only do they harm the environment, but they actively steal, lie, and take advantage of people.

Crypto is a little bit more enclosed and niche

olive plaza
#

oh come on guys. crypto bros and ai bros aren't bad, they're just misguided. They've been brainwashed by their communities to think it's OK to be a piece of crap

fair onyx
#

Trust me, I know a lot of them that take pride in the fact that they are crappy lol

olive plaza
#

The same could be said of some prideful political groups too

fair onyx
#

Mando who used to be in here was a prime example. He took pride in the fact that crypto was terrible lol

olive plaza
#

Just one generation before millennial and you start running into groups of people who hate everything that's AI

fair onyx
#

All right, so it looks like I cannot get to the button without removing the GPU. However, I was able to remove some cables to where I might be able to remove the GPU without having to disconnect everything

tranquil pebble
fair onyx
#

The problem is just getting to the PCIe release. I have about a half a centimeter gap between the GPUs

olive plaza
#

I like pointing out very basic things in their lives that have to do with AI

fair onyx
#

We're actually, the gap is bigger than I remember

tranquil pebble
olive plaza
#

obsessed with hating it? yeah.

tranquil pebble
#

No

fair onyx
tranquil pebble

There are always exceptions

olive plaza
#

those aren't actual boomers. I doubt you found anyone born between 1946 and 1959 who loves AI

fair onyx
olive plaza
#

50-60's is not boomer

fair onyx
#

I know some even older

fair onyx
olive plaza
#

the youngest boomers are 65 at this time

#

so I guess yeah 60's could be

fresh timber
#

Doug is 60 trying not
To be classified as a boomer

olive plaza
#

my parents are the tail end of boomer generation

fair onyx
#

I'm just sitting here looking at my computer, dreading what I have to do lol

olive plaza
#

I'm smack in the middle of millennial

tranquil pebble
fair onyx
olive plaza
#

Gen X thinks Millennials are the kids going door to door selling candybars

fair onyx

Yeah lmao

olive plaza

Gen Z thinks Gen X is actually boomer

Who's Dough

fresh timber
#

You

#

I have you a name

olive plaza
#

there's no H in my name

fair onyx
#

Doug, not dough

olive plaza
#

Depends on what your spare GPU is

fresh timber
#

I have a 6600 going into a flip and a 7700xt that may become egpu, may get sold idk

olive plaza
#

the 6600 won't sell in a flip

fresh timber
#

L

olive plaza
#

nobody buys those in PCs

fresh timber
#

I don’t want it

olive plaza
#

is it even an XT

fresh timber
#

It’s going in something

fresh timber
#

I’m just putting in a pc I have and listing for cheap

olive plaza
#

The problem is it gets outperformed by a 5700XT

#

and even those sell for like 125-150

fresh timber
#

Yeah

#

I don’t wanna make profit I just wanna recoup some money

olive plaza
#

then just list it on eBay or Jawa or Mercari or something idk

fresh timber
#

What do I do with the rest of the working system

olive plaza
#

what are the specs

fresh timber
#

5500 32gb ram uhh b550 prime,

olive plaza
#

oh is this the one you bought on newegg

#

I think I remember this whole situation now

fresh timber
#

Huh

#

I don’t

olive plaza
#

or maybe it wasn't you

#

somebody asked me to build them a PC

fresh timber
#

Oh yeah remember tho motherboards a while ago

#

Turns out they both work

#

One just has bad channel

olive plaza
#

oh weird

fresh timber
#

Other just. Died for no reason later on

olive plaza
#

5500 with 32GB RAM is a weird setup

fresh timber
olive plaza
#

is it 2x16

fresh timber
#

Nope

#

It’s my old corsair

#

I have no use for it so I chucked it in a pc

olive plaza
#

idk maybe you can sell the whole thing locally

#

with the GPU and all

#

i just know online nobody wants a 6600

fresh timber
#

Lost cause

#

Then what do I do with the rest of the parts

#

I have a working psu, cpu, motherboard, ram and storage

#

All I don’t want

fair onyx
#

@olive plaza I got it!

#

I was able to contort my body, and squeeze my finger under the GPU, and I was able to reset the BIOS

#

Now let's see if it actually does anything lol

olive plaza
#

how long did you hold the button

fresh timber
#

mhh i might be able to get my hands on maybe a 4060 or 6700 down the line

olive plaza
#

Vex where are you located again

fresh timber
#

IL

olive plaza
#

THAT'S RIGHT

#

i forgor 💀

fresh timber
#

bro remembers

#

yeah

fair onyx
fresh timber
#

lol

olive plaza
#

@fair onyx it's a 30 second hold

fresh timber
#

my local market idk i might be able to get a kiddie to buy it for $700 kekw they dumb out here

fair onyx
olive plaza
#

or i guess however long

fair onyx
#

Okay, I was able to get it at a much better angle, so I can hold it easily now

olive plaza
#

but 30 seconds is how long ur supposed to jump it if it has a jumper connection

fair onyx
#

The big problem was just searching around under the GPU and figuring out what it was

#

How exactly am I supposed to know if it clears?

#

I've been holding it this whole time

fresh timber
#

omg

#

i made this a discord beast

fair onyx
fresh timber
#

ido if I like this touchscreen

fair onyx
#

Ok. I am trying it now

fresh timber
#

the keyboard shucks

fair onyx
fresh timber
#

This laptop is about size of my old one but the screen is bigger

#

Taller cause 16:10

fair onyx
#

@olive plaza finally! I'm back in bios

#

Oh cool, now my keyboard isn't recognized, so I can't select anything

#

Soooo... It's stuck

#

And I can't do anything. Fun

#

Ok, I had to restart it and now my keyboard worked

fresh timber
#

oh

#

giid hibi

#

good job

#

🤔 why ru cheap

fair onyx
#

Hmmmm

#

I'm in windows!!!!

fresh timber
#

poggers

#

im so proud of you

fair onyx
#

oh wow, thats not bad

#

it defaulted to 4000mhz

#

hmm... maybe this won't be that bad

fresh timber
#

stability test it

fair onyx
#

I'll give it a try

#

lets see how it handles Jamba

#

just as a speed bench comparison, and then I can try a bigger model for stability

fresh timber
#

i wanna run a model on my laptop so i can suffer

misty sparrow
#

i thought it wasn't optimal to use all four slots

#

i guess speed doesn't really matter for AI models much does it?

fresh timber
#

its not

#

he just has 128gb

fair onyx
#

huh, it failed to load

misty sparrow
#

F

fair onyx
#

I have never had this happen before... weird

fresh timber
#

wanna know what would be cool

#

if windows let you share a keeb/mouse with two pcs wirelessly

craggy shoal
#

Clanker/clanka: boring, overused

Wire back: innovative, brings attention

fresh timber
fair onyx
#

Ok so, i got it to load

#

Looks like the decreased RAM speed is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. The loss is still noticable, but not too terrible

#

looks like ~20% performance loss

#

@olive plazaThats the final result

#

its still noticable, but not as bad as I assumed. though, the RAM is running at 4000mhz, instead of 3200mhz

olive plaza
#

It wouldn't have been 3200

#

that was never an option

#

3600MHz is the lowest default for DDR5

#

Something to bear in mind for the future. Should you decide to go with a 13th or 14th gen CPU you will enjoy higher DDR5 speeds

suck on this icecream cone

opaque sedge
#

could def optimize it cuz i fit in parts i'm familiar with

#

could also opt for the 7800x3d now thats it cheaper

#

also wtf happened to montech case prices

#

they used to be below 100 bucks almost always

the subreddit on the other hand...

#

The ssd too, and the 9800x3d may not be necessary when the 7800x3d is now available for well under 400

fresh timber
#

ehh

#

some servers say go 9800x3d over 7800x3d cause its worth it

frigid stag
#

Ssd is good, 2tb is better but it’s fine

fresh timber
#

512gb enough

frigid stag
#

9800x3d is better you can oc it, set clocks

opaque sedge
fresh timber
#

microcenter server loves 9800x3d

#

they think 7800x3d is ewaste

frigid stag
fresh timber
#

i exgerated but they think the $100 is worth it

People I’ve asked who had both zen 4 and 5 said zen 5 feels faster

#

Not as big of a delay opening programs etc

fresh timber
#

oled is opinion

frigid stag
#

Compared to zen 4 vs intel

fresh timber
#

i persoanlly would rather 9800x3d over oled, somebody els might not

opaque sedge
#

Imo

fresh timber
#

IMO

#

so many IMOS

opaque sedge
#

I took a look at some in best buy before i ordered mine

fresh timber
#

yeah, but is it 500fps RAHH i benchmark awsome

#

i looekd at one at microcenter. wasnt that mindblowing to me

opaque sedge
#

Maybe with a gpu

fresh timber
#

yes you can

#

depends on game

opaque sedge
opaque sedge
#

But he selected 1440p

fresh timber
#

i mean if your playing valorant at 8k maybe

opaque sedge
#

I dont think there is a huge performance difference between a 7800x3d and 9800x3d for fps in games

fresh timber
#

@honest birch went from 7800x3d to 9800x3d, lets get his opinion

opaque sedge
#

10-30 more frames over an optimized build with a slightly lessperforming CPU with an oled monitor

frigid stag
#

98x3d is better

#

Way less dip

opaque sedge
fresh timber
#

input latency

#

alot of poeple will run that high fps for less latency

frigid stag
#

It’s mostly tn

opaque sedge
# frigid stag 98x3d is better

Ok he could go 9800x3d and in the list i made he pays a 100 more for the oled over his list but he will pay significantly less with ips in the same list like 400 bucks less

#

So in the end its upto preference ig

fresh timber
#

your spending too much on psu

#

fans? go thermalright

frigid stag
#

98x3d is objectively better though, the oled is more up to personal preference

opaque sedge
#

Oled 2.3k-2.4k

fresh timber
#

i mean its up to persoanl prefrence

#

do they want a oled?

#

not everone likes them

frigid stag
#

They flicker

opaque sedge
frigid stag
#

I don’t like them

fresh timber
#

vrr flicker 🤮 burnin mostly solved 🤮

frigid stag
#

It’s not even just on vrr

#

You see it if you’re pwm sensitive

fresh timber
#

please dont tell me its a problem elswhere

opaque sedge
#

Oled is definitely not suitable for work with static images such as docs spreadsheets pdfs

frigid stag
#

It is

PWM is short for Pulse Width Modulation and is a method that manufacturers use to adjust the displays brightness. While it may save them money, it sometimes causes headaches, eye strains, burning watery eyes, and even nausea for users. Both LCD and OLED displays use PWM but LCD is usually around 1000 Hz or more so it's harder to perceive due to ...

fresh timber

oo

opaque sedge

Hmm looks like it was for last year

#

They mightve ditched it for oled with the mobile 50 series

fresh timber

i would ditch oled for laptops tbh

im on wifi btw

honest birch
#

especially with OC

#

9800X3D on a good 360mm aio can easily get to 5.6GHz

#

7800x3d core locked obv

honest birch
#

i use oled

#

there is no other way

elfin mural
#

oled is fine as long as you run it low brightness

#

of course kinda defeats the entire point

#

but that's a big way to guarantee less burn in

honest birch
#

its fine on max, just remove static elements, hide the taskbar and use and oled theme everywhere

elfin mural
#

that's also a valid strategy

honest birch

thats what i do

a laptop is a pc as well

fresh timber

im refering to desktops in this instance

laptops are portable devices, do what u want

velvet summit
#

in that case, a mobile cart with a desktop pc on it which needs to be moved around

#

though generally those use a laptop nowadays

fresh timber
velvet summit
#

i wouldnt say wrong

#

desktop usually has better performance and/or is more quieter

#

actually
one of the most useful things i've found for a desktop to have wifi is to make a hotspot for it for something such as VR (especially in cases where the AP is a bit far from where you are)

fresh timber
velvet summit
#

also usually wifi chips also have bluetooth, but you could also get just a bluetooth transcever

fresh timber
#

that desktop app for VR does not support or recommend using a hotspot

velvet summit
#

well, yeah, but if you just have it, it works well ennough

their mobo didn't include the antennas for some reason

I guess what I can do is unscrew the bottom or top screws of the board and move it just a bit to get some clearance and then screw it in after

If I could put this in parallel with the board then it would be ok

#

But m.2 dont work like that

#

Ok I got it

#

So I got the top corner completely in and took advantage of some small flex to get a little bit of the rest in and then pushed it down

#

And with it partially in I was able to push it in further

The case is stopping it from poking out lol

I mean the screens not damaged that’s for sure

I've only ever seen this on Mini ITX. If this is a micro ATX board it would be the first I've seen with this placement for an M.2 slot

me to my wife: Every time I look at you I just melt
her to me: You mean like this?

Oh, credit to Future Publishing / Tom's Hardware for the image

#

Some guy in South Korea had this happen to his 4060TI, claimed that he wasn't gaming or overclocking or anything although he sometimes would play PUBG, he was just working with Adobe software and this happened

And which GPUs are they

#

Also I just want to throw this 4-stick RAM compatibility out there which I compiled in February.
This is the maximum officially supported speed. Some CPUs can run faster. I would have shared this whole list last night but I keep it at my desk at work.

Intel 12th thru 14th gen is all the same for 4 sticks: single-sided 4 sticks is rated for 4000MHz, double-sided 4 sticks is rated for 3600MHz
Intel Ultra 200 series CPUs: 4 sticks single-sided rated for 4800MHz, double-sided rated for 4400MHz

AM5 all CPUs are rated for 4 sticks at 3600MHz right now, regardless of Zen 4 vs Zen 5 and whether the sticks are single- or double-sided (All current AM5 CPUs use the same IO die which is why this is the case)

This is what I'm up to at the moment. Validation with 256GB RAM on a 9950X

Why tho

frosty sinew

38% usage 💀

#

its pulling 150w

rancid juniper
#

i mean its a 16 core cpu lol

dusk knot
#

At least it's not an Intel

rancid juniper
#

lol true

#

a base 13600k without any tune can pull more than that

these cpus nowadays are mad hungry for power even if the node is small

frosty sinew

i can tell

it would be fun to undervolt it tho

but what does it do

#

i still dont know

#

lol

rancid juniper
# frosty sinew but what does it do

undervolting is used to decrease the voltage of the processor
Pros

  • Lower temperature
  • Less power
  • Higher Boost Clocks
  • Improves cpu lifespan (i think)

Cons

  • Like overclocking it can be prone to crashes (BSOD) if set too low
frosty sinew
#

ah

#

she flies

rancid juniper
#

insane power draw ngl

frosty sinew
#

i think itll go higher

is that bad

rancid juniper
#

where do you get that?

frosty sinew
#

cpuz

rancid juniper
#

can you check hwinfo

frosty sinew
#

im thinking that may be the input voltage

#

ok yeah

#

thats wrong

#

i was gonna say

rancid juniper
#

also lemme see vcore

#

think you have to scroll down a bit

frosty sinew
#

in the cpu?

rancid juniper
#

actually nvm lol

frosty sinew
#

its in mobo

#

thats it

rancid juniper
#

yea that

#

ok its within range

frosty sinew
#

idk wtf it was getting that 1.8 from

#

lol

rancid juniper
#

cpu-z probably got incorrect readings, maybe its outdated

this is mine for example

8 hrs

olive plaza
#

if it took you 8 hours to upgrade to Windows 11 maybe it's time to upgrade somethign else too

frosty sinew
#

in my defence

#

it was a fresh install

olive plaza

that's worse

frosty sinew

fresh install should be faster

as well as a lot that arent there

it got bricked and wouldnt uninstall

olive plaza

To be fair

you're running on canadian internet

bruh the way I can identify the brand of UPS by its status screen

#

frosty sinew
#

it was arcing internally

#

so my work threw it out

olive plaza
#

I'm surprised they disposed the battery too

#

that's the expensive part

frosty sinew
#

iirc it came without them

#

but batteries cheap

#

like 100 bucks

olive plaza
#

I mean that's the cost of an entire basic UPS

#

battery and all

frosty sinew
#

these ones expensive

#

it was like 1500

olive plaza
#

1500VA? or 1500CAD

frosty sinew
#

1000va

#

1500usd cost

olive plaza
#

wow

frosty sinew
#

yeah i stuffed bigger batteries in

#

after it blew up the first ones

#

apc is goofy

#

their default float voltage is like 28v

olive plaza
#

Electricity is fun

frosty sinew
#

so the batteries die in like a year

Man I just fried a piece of bread in bacon grease. Toast is forever ruined for me

"I put the bread in grease. It's greasy"

Bacon lard

With little bits of bacon in it

I understand why the Brits eat fried bread now

idk if I'd do everything the Brits do

such as not having air conditioning

A full breakfast over there also has mushrooms because they are all a bit weird. And blood sausage. But fried bread is a marvel

olive plaza
#

don't they have like, baked beans

#

for breakfast

#

that sounds incredible to me. fried eggs and baked beans

Sometimes, yeah. But their baked beans aren't sweet like ours, their beans are in a tomato sauce

i was waiting for it

olive plaza
#

what's it like working for Newegg

#

it can't be worse than Amazon so

#

I still buy things from Newegg when it makes sense

#

I like supporting businesses where they treat the workers well

#

so if Newegg is a good place to work, I like that

rigid sinew
#

thats a pretty good question

olive plaza
#

LOL

#

well anyway

rigid sinew
#

its honestly pretty chill here

#

the people i met here have been friends even after theyve left

olive plaza
#

my mind went "there are only 2 answers when you ask someone at work if they like their job. either they love it, or, that's a pretty good question"

velvet summit
#

when i worked at the factory we switched between day and night shift every 2 weeks
day shift i would have to wake up at like 5am

#

night shift i would have to sleep at like 1am

#

and it was 6 day weeks

#

so only one day to get used to the schedule flip

#

so every first day of those 2 weeks i would be dead tired

#

(not a great recipe for driving heavy machinery lmao)

frosty sinew
#

Its 7pm- 7am then 7am - 7pm

#

But its fine I got 4 days off cuz wisdom teeth

velvet summit
#

that's a one time thing though lol

#

well, at least it was only 2 shifts to rotate around when i was working there

#

when they first opened there were 3 shifts

#

morning, evening, and midnight shift

#

rotating

#

the people that used to work there during that time said that it was VERY rough

#

there's still a midnight shift when i worked there but it wasnt rotating anymore

#

it was just maintenance basically
