if i hadnt already had the 9070 xt i woulda just scooped it up right there but I don't have need of one and reselling is a pain in the but

#

When I say that I'm good, it never means I'm feeling alright.

It just means that whatever is slicing me at the moment would take too long to explain to you.

#

Other than that, I'm great

#

also i mean don't gigabyte cards this gen have that thermal paste leaking issue?

wooooooah what a deal a whole dollar off msrp

misty sparrow
#

I've heard of Walmart deals being crazy stupid cheap sometimes

#

like 4TB of SSD storage for like $60 or something

wise wigeon

its usually open box or extreme clearance in a rural area where the stock just doesnt move

wise wigeon

it was a 4tb sn850x for 150

misty sparrow
#

insane

#

i would have scooped that up

#

did they honor the deal

wise wigeon
#

think so

#

the bapcs sub was keeping an eagle eye one it

#

it was in and out deal for like a day

#

oh wow even the 16gb 5060ti is like sub 400 now

#

and the 9800x3d is -50 on walmart too

#

yeah just a few days back

#

there were even comments like 2 days later with restocks

misty sparrow
#

I wonder if you can make subreddit posts pop up in your notifications on the mobile app

#

This would be useful

upper rain
#

5060 ti doesn't make sense to Super. so just drop price a smidge

wise wigeon
#

do they even super the 60s now?

#

wasnt the last 60 super the 2060 super?

they didn't do any supers for 30 series

#

skipped out on 4060 super

#

i reckon we may get a 5060 non ti super so that they can give it 12GB. but idk

#

5060 ti just needs a price drop and it's a fine product. the 16GB one anyway

Well Intel's mobile CPUs are pretty efficient but it's still x86, Nintendo likely wants to stick with arm still

arrgh

i expect Nintendo stays partnered with Nvidia though. maybe AMD if their ARM project is real and going well

#

Keep in mind the Switch 2 is running 5-6 year old hardware

#

Ampere and a 5 year old Arm CPU

rancid juniper
#

dayum

#

wait since its ampere that means the switch 2 is running dlss3?

#

crazy that the switch 2 is a super anemic rtx 2050

nocturne flicker
#

Can't have it be too obvious

upper rain
#

it's a scaled down DLSS model since the Switch 2 SoC is too weak to accelerate proper DLSS as well as you'd like

#

i assume it's 4.x based, but more likely the CNN version since it's lighter to run than the transformer model

#

and CNN dlss 4 isn't really any better than 3.x

Hey guys, you guys know if any good smart watch options? I'm looking for one for work. Nothing too expensive. Older gen/renewed is good to me. Not interested in any apple stuff, and I would like it to be AMOLED/OLED with good battery life

I'm ordering a Galaxy watch 5 pro, and an active watch 2. I had an active watch 2 and I loved it, but it broke. Just curious if anybody has any recommendations

royal crow
#

ok wtf.... my second monitor bugged out for the second time today. very brief, it hasn't lasted more than a quarter second, but for that amount of time, it looks like my ram crapped itself.
specific monitor is a Viewsonic VA25465smh 60HZ 1080p. it's plugged into my 265K, and my RAM is corsair vengeance 32g DDR5-6000 CL36. any ideas as to what could be causing it?

fair onyx
#

I assume that's an older monitor. If that's the case, it could be crapping out. I had an old ViewSonic that started getting signal static/noise, and it would randomly turn into pure static for a second or two before fixing. Eventually, I had to disable all color on the monitor for it to work at all. It died shortly after

yeah idk how old it is but it supports VGA so that should be a good guage lol

@royal crow what's it been like?

royal crow
fair onyx

Oh, the pro 2 is kinda sexy

royal crow
#

ikr

fair onyx
#

Does it have good battery? Is it customizable?

royal crow
#

heart rate sensor seems like it runs low, and the exercise function can be buggy, but other than that its great

#

(or it could be more accurate than the treadmill lol)

fair onyx
#

I'm after good battery and solid customization, personally

royal crow
#

it'll last half a week before getting to 50%, I've always charged it before then though

fair onyx
#

I know the active watch 2 from Samsung is really good. I loved mine for many years

fair onyx
royal crow
#

as for customization u can customize the watch face and thats abt it

#

dang monitor did it again

fair onyx
#

Does it support apps? Or does it only work with their pre loaded apps/watch faces?

royal crow
#

I think you might be right💀

fair onyx
#

Ah ok, that's a deal breaker for me personally. Thanks for the info!

#

I have the active 2 and pro 5 coming, and they're $60 and $80 respectively

royal crow

nice

now to start looking for a cheap 60hz monitor....

Everyone I know, myself included, that is into tech knows that HP is not known to be a quality brand lol.

i knew by owning a laptop from them

hinges go snap

tranquil pebble

last time I had an HP, it ran Windows 95.

They were not as bad back then

elfin mural

laptop makers never learn

they rely on flimsy plastics to adhere hinges

and expect them to not snap

novel ferry

HP workstation is pretty solid

elfin mural
#

almost all laptops have weak hinges

#

with a few with good implementations

#

or a simple hack, screws and metal body

#

lenovo is known to glue hinges onto metal body however

tranquil pebble
#

bruh

olive plaza
#

Can attest to most modern laptop designs having really bad hinge implementation

idle nexus

my surfacebook3 has a pretty impressive hinge design. The rest of it is horrible tho. Freaking volcano

I sure do miss undervolting. THANKS PLUNDERVOLT

My whole family uses HP laptops except for my mother in law, who has a Dell Precision I picked up super-cheap used off Marketplace about 3 years ago:

  • My laptop is a super cheap HP refurb that I picked up below 300 bucks recently at Micro Center with a 17 inch screen for basic couch use, so far only 1 of the screw mounts has broken for the hinge
  • My wife's got an HP 2-in-1 so the hinges are solid on that one.
  • My mom has an HP I bought for her on eBay several years ago when her Toshiba from like 2012 started having issues, I made sure it was Windows 11 compliant so it's 8th gen, and one of the two hinge mounts is gone
  • Mother-in-law uses a Dell Precision workstation I got used on eBay immediately post pandemic on Marketplace for like 350 with a 10th gen i7, bought it from someone who was going "back to the office" after lockdowns, she uses it to manage her business and there are no issues

so it can be opened once

#

you have to remove the screen to service it. It's a nightmare

I remember seeing online a good while back about one of the Surface devices, it was an older model but the guy figured out the exact location of the mSATA SSD so he legit cut a square hole in teh back of it to access it lol

#

Fairly recently I had a customer bring in a Surface Pro at my day job complaining about the speed, and it was like the final model that originally shipped with Windows 8.1 so it was a 4th gen i5, 8GB RAM, and the guy had upgraded it to Windows 10 but it didn't support 11

It’s been a while since we’ve checked in on the least repairable laptop we’ve ever seen. The first Surface Laptop was a nightmare to tear down, we melted keys and tore the alcantara cover just trying to get it open. Things were so bad we ended up scoring it a 0 out of 10 for repairability. Now we’ve got Microsoft’s latest laptop, the ...

#

Yeah it takes like, 5+ years for a PCIe generation to get finalized

#

So if they're talking about Gen 8.0 now it won't actually exist on computers for quite a few years

idle nexus
#

I wanted to put liquid metal on my SB3 but I'll wait until I break the screen since removing it will likely break it

olive plaza

nah that's not true

#

remove the word "likely"

idle nexus
#

Repairability score: 1/10 -iFixit lol

olive plaza
#

mhm

#

yeah it's not likely you'll break the screen

#

it's a given

#

didn't iFixit break theirs while disassembling

idle nexus
#

ya almost guaranteed

olive plaza
#

I think they did

idle nexus
#

I don't know how anyone could remove it without breaking it

olive plaza
#

and humbly, none of us are better at tearing down a device than iFixit themselves

there's so much adhesive & it's freaking thin glass

how long you think it itll be before PCIe has to be redesigned entirely?

someone should make a 2 in 1 with a Ryzen Z series processor

lol would probably be way better than 10th gen i7

and as a bonus it would be easier to cool

plus strong igpu

they'd rather do it with ryzen ai hx

guys i wanna help my friend get a pc im curious about what cpu of ryzen and motherboard i should advice him for

#

like should he get r5 9600x or something else

#

he is on 1200-1300 budget

#

also what would be a good motherboard if he upgrades the cpu and stuff later

#

like b650 or b870 or x870

frigid stag
#

b650e is nice

#

but idk why youd get 9600x if 14600k costs less and is fast faster unless youre 100% sure youre upgrading to 10800x3d

main loom
#

it isnt even out yet but idk

#

i like ryzen more

sinful blade
#

@flat patio no

worn night
frigid stag
#

why?

worn night
frigid stag
#

im not going to recommend a slower cpu with less cores that costs more

worn night
#

But you should recommend something with more gaming performance and an actual upgrade path

#

this is common knowledge

frigid stag
#

the 14600k is faster

worn night
#

whats he gonna get after the 14600k

frigid stag
#

what “upgrade path” whens the last time you saw someone go from a ryzen 5 to a 800$ high end cpu

#

most people keep that thing for years

worn night
#

whens the last time you saw someone get an intel cpu recommended here

#

always go amd rn

frigid stag
#

idk

doesnt matter its the same bs advice they give same with many techtubers

or nvidia card specially

so thats why i choosed 5060 ti for him

worn night

its better than 5070

and goodd card

worn night
main loom
elfin mural

imo i'd rather go for a 7700x

worn night
elfin mural

my sentiment is 6 cores is meh

main loom
#

not worth it

upper rain
main loom
#

more

#

ofc

worn night
#

60 dollars more

elfin mural
#

me personally i'd go for an 8 core that's a bit older

than a new 6 core

frigid stag

sinful blade

AIOs are more for looks than performance

worn night
#

hot take

frigid stag
elfin mural
#

don't get an asrock board

#

if you slap a 9800x3d on em

#

they get fried

nocturne flicker
sinful blade
#

That’s why I said not to

main loom
#

so the board here is the most important thing what guys would you recommend for something that is good and could upgrade with latewr

frigid stag
#

they wont if you actually go through the bios settings and set it up properly

elfin mural

that's too much effort for an average gamer

sinful blade

b650e is better though and costs less

worn night
elfin mural

pcie 5

#

that can be problematic running a 5060ti on pcie 4.0

#

hmm..

frigid stag
#

i didnt think of that tbh good point

main loom
#

idk i dont him to get asrock

frigid stag
#

another good reason

#

b650e is just a chipset all the brands have one pretty much

main loom
#

so b850 is the way to go

sinful blade
#

@elfin mural do you wanna make a final list for him

frigid stag
#

theres also white one

elfin mural
#

which intel chipsets have pcie 5

#

hrm

frigid stag
#

idk about the lower end ones but all the z boards do pretty much

#

on lga1700

elfin mural
#

okay

#

so z690 is workable

#

man 14600k and z board is more cash

frigid stag
#

some z790 gigabyte is the cheapest one now

main loom
frigid stag
#

yeah unless u need the usb 4

#

b650e is better cause u get pcie 5

main loom
frigid stag
#

yeah thats a reason why pcie 5 is better

#

with b650E

#

b850 doesnt have it, only x870/e

elfin mural
#

intel list

main loom
#

why b850 dont and its more expensive ?

frigid stag
#

cuz theyre trying to sell out b650e

#

its older

main loom
#

so as far as i understanded b850 with 5060 ti will have issue ?

#

because of pcie

frigid stag
#

not necessarily but maybe

elfin mural
#

it's a maybe

frigid stag
#

theres no reason not to get the b650e unless you dont know how to flash the bios

elfin mural
#

since 5060ti is on 8 lanes

main loom
frigid stag
#

cuz ryzen 9000 need newer bios

main loom
#

yep my bad

frigid stag
#

theyre newer than the motherboard

#

dunno when that b650e was made could be from 2023

main loom
#

i put x670e i dont know if its worth it

#

@elfin mural can you recommend it ?

#

he doesnt mind going a little above budget

elfin mural
#

that's not bad

#

i'd rather go b650e though

main loom
#

and x670e would be better in this case

elfin mural
#

it makes no difference in real usage

#

but it's still within budget

#

so yeah, it's good enough

main loom
#

thank you all @elfin mural @frigid stag @sinful blade @worn night

#

appreciated it

worn night
#

Np

main loom
#

guys i tried to make a build with those two

#

and thne price diff was like 60-70$

#

worth it ?

elfin mural
#

ehhhh

#

no

main loom
#

so does r5 9600x preforms better ?

elfin mural
#

core ultra 200 series isn't that much better

Go get a 17

#

Newer

velvet summit
#

i wonder if the iphone air would be worth considering over the 17 assuming they only want apple

#

it has a slightly bigger screen than the 17

#

17 has 6.3", air has 6.5"

#

16 pro max is 6.9" though

#

and it survived the jerry rig everything durability test which is pretty impressive

#

for an apple product

#

though he hasnt done one for the 17 non pro yet

so yeah i agree with your lack of conent for minor nations

There is only 1 good examples of a minor nation with good content in TNO

Like yeah, England exists, but they deleted all of it. Anything east of Germany is just nothing. Flavor states who only serve as minor roadblocks to repuppeting or always get absolutely curb stomped

there was like 2 lines in the middle of the taskbar that was sitting for a while but it was unnoticeable prior

I readjusted the monitor and it’s back to normal, could it be affected by the monitor arm mount?

remote geode
#

as long as it's not magic smoke that's coming from your monitor mount

#

you should believe in whatever superstition you just formed in this very moment

#

(it's probably something to do with the cables)

pseudo patrol
#

true, I wonder if it couldve been the power adapter since one of the cords is angled tightly when I organized them

#

other than that it’s back to normal

it might be a common issue the m27q x, idk why it's discontinued tho

nocturne flicker
#

They need to bring back Greatest Hits

misty sparrow
#

^^^

#

Where did it go?

nocturne flicker
#

They stopped after the PS4

#

Probably because of the heavier push for digital sales or something, so no discounted reprints

misty sparrow
#

even then, they still have greatest hits on digital

#

dont know why they wouldn't bother discounting some of their older titles

#

probably because they keep remastering them even when they don't need it

nocturne flicker
#

Something something, digital sales go brrr and physical reprints cost money or something I dunno

#

It isn't like the Greatest Hits versions were always exactly the same, some of them came with patches back when you couldn't download them on the internet

nocturne flicker
#

The biggest problem is that it is sitting on a lot of old stuff that isn't in line with modern MMO gameplay. I have 680 hours in the thing and haven't gotten into a lot of content made within the past 10 years and quite a few mechanics have been dropped or abandoned

#

Also the servers are pepeg

#

And SSG is not doing any major overhauls, just chugging out content

#

And the few overhauls they have done have been disasters that have broken the game

#

They replaced the deed log book with a new (and imo a worse looking one) that caused random crashes for everyone no matter what

#

And their recent burglar class overhaul has triggered an issue that lags the servers

#

That they patched out by nixing the part of the overhaul causing it

#

And then they accidentally reenabled it and had to patch it again last week
