[nocturne flicker]

I'm talking about stuff that effects the lodgen

Though tbh most of the problems will end up being that the things being loaded in the distance will just completely be retextured once you get close enough or the distant sprite will just disappear if the item isn't actually there anymore due to mods

[dusk knot]

Hhhh

anyone know why an order could be voided? and if im good to place another one even after emailing customer support?

[sinful blade]

@digital thunder @flat flax

[proud jackal]

Just like I'm GTA

[dusk knot]

Why do gamers like arc raiders?

[dusk knot]

Airport?

[proud jackal]

Today is Babymetal

[flat flax]

just dont wanna wait till monday to find out i just have to reorder

[worn wave]

Haven’t played it (been busy with BF6) but the sound design is supposed to be incredible, as well as the visuals and gameplay being great.

[dusk knot]

Finally! It's been months

[dusk knot]

Hm

[opaque sedge]

Bootup times are insane for this modlist bruh been waiting for like 5 minutes alr halfway thru my cheese and jam toast

[rancid juniper]

-It runs very well even if it's a UE5 game

-People still like extraction shooters it seems (escape from duckov is a good example)

-Great sound design as what Stevie said

-Proximity voice chat and other QOL features made for online play

-You can team up with rival players if possible so each game can be different (PVP/PVE)

-Not priced at $60+

[opaque sedge]

What’s the extraction shooter gameplay loop like?

[dusk knot]

Do you enjoy it?

[opaque sedge]

I kinda wanna get it ngl

To hunt down robos

[rancid juniper]

Not quite, didn't play much during the open server test weeks back

[dusk knot]

Hm

[opaque sedge]

@dusk knot should i stream and show u guys modded skyrim (stutterrim)

[rancid juniper]

It's just a matter of preference but I understand why it's popular

[dusk knot]

Hm….you have access to to our special channel?

[opaque sedge]

ah damn cant stream in the vc

[rancid juniper]

Delusional seller

[opaque sedge]

i dont think so

[dusk knot]

Sad

[frigid stag]

crazy how he even got one

they were really rare

[acoustic palm]

@worn night I sent that twice since bad cellular makes you double send things

[opaque sedge]

@dusk knot behold modded skyrim aka stutterrim

[dusk knot]

What’s the maximum amount of vram you have?

[opaque sedge]

12 gigs 😭

[dusk knot]

Hm

I see you have 32gb of wam to

[dusk knot]

No idea what would cause that

Maybe the mod itself?

[opaque sedge]

"the 4070 has a lot of l2 cache so it doesnt need 16 gigs of vram" stfu fu jensen

[opaque sedge]

its the vram choking up due to the vram heavy textures

i should've committed to a 4080s

i was unaware of skyrim modlists

[dusk knot]

That’s what I thought

Rip a gamer

😔

Time to upgrade

[opaque sedge]

it sucks even more thinking about how its able to sufficiently get good frames but the vram is crippling it

[opaque sedge]

uhm jp i spent 6 hundies on a 4070super even if i spent a grand on a 5080 the performance increase is kind of not worth it considering the painful amt money gone

[dusk knot]

Next gen it is

[opaque sedge]

yup or next next gen if nvidia keeps shafting the xx70 class

[dusk knot]

80 series

[opaque sedge]

nvidia finally catching up to amd

[dusk knot]

Hang in there, gamer

[opaque sedge]

the vram drough for nvidia cards has gotta be planned obsolescence

perfectly capable gpus crippled by lack of vram

they did the 3070 so dirty

[worn night]

yeah i saw your message

you can only send with an image attached in there

i see whoever doesnt know that lol

(more than you think)

[dusk knot]

I had that GPU for a few months

Didn’t like it

[frigid stag]

3070 vs titan rtx

you vs the guy she tells you not to worry about

would be fun to see 3070 24gb

[tranquil pebble]

imagine a 5090 64 GB

[misty sparrow]

Wow, the stutters are so bad the video won't even play on my end

[opaque sedge]

whats that band name again?

Holy optimization bruh arc raiders is just 30 gigs

oh yeah BTW repo has a free weekend

might try that out

[drowsy totem]

That game is fun

[dusk knot]

hm

I hope so

[olive plaza]

It's actually not a bad cellular issue... On mobile, when you're sending an image, it will randomly not take you back to the main chat after sending. So people don't think it sent and they send it again. Not a cellular issue, a Discord mobile app issue.

[drowsy totem]

Huh

[dusk knot]

The game has RT right?

[mental yoke]

I haven't seen a lot of people do per core curve optimization. Is there much benefit?

[drowsy totem]

Arc raiders? Yes.

https://youtu.be/kQQvQcUiUfk?si=bhnY9oAsr9zT7yKp

[tall pine]

Depends on the objective. If the goal is all core clocks then no. If you are going for single core clocks then yes drastically while maintaining the same all core benefits.

Am5 cheap cpu for a motherboard which can support 9950x3d??
Imma upgrade later so i will have a high-end mb now

[tranquil pebble]

7600X is the cheapest I see right now, for my market. Yours may be different though.

[peak heart]

And can i use same motherboard for this and 9950x3d?

[tranquil pebble]

yes

both are AM5, just need to be sure the mobo is beefy enough for the 9950

thoughts on snyology photos server

[pliant berry]

Synology is currently the enemy because they tried vendor locking hardware

[gleaming sedge]

im looking to have my own "cloud" storage for photo that i can upload photos of family events and like girlfriend events and put them on that and share them but have only them albums accessible to them and not others one that they dont have a link or such to

[tall pine]

So far -40 co is playing nice on Core 1.

[gleaming sedge]

are theyre other decent good options

[acoustic palm]

uhhhhh no... its not that issue. my cell is sometimes so bad that when i reopen up discord it sends it twice, i do not send it twice

[olive plaza]

Interesting you have a separate issue lol

[acoustic palm]

rural issues 🙁

[tranquil pebble]

open source stuff is probably the best way to avoid this

@dusk knot do i want auto hdr on

I wonder if the outer shit 2 performance is worse than borderline unplayable 4

Both are terrible

[tranquil pebble]

BL4 needs 720p + DLSS balanced just to run ok on a 4060M lol

also everything set to minimum

[misty sparrow]

With Borderlands' cel-shaded style, how is it even that demanding? I haven't played the game yet, but I don't expect NASA-grade stuff to make it run good

Probably a UE5 thing, coupled with bad optimization

[tranquil pebble]

[nocturne flicker]

The year is 2057. You need to buy a 90 tier card to run the latest edition of Tetris and gamers pay the GPU Electricity Tax on a watts per hour basis due to the high energy demand of gpus

[pliant berry]

Yeah like immich

Synology competitor would be like qnap or you could do diy but then you have to setup the domains, networking and all that

[gleaming sedge]

that honestly sounds like ALOT compared to doing something like synology. i already have a qnap das

[pliant berry]

Yeah the qnap nas’ have similar software suite. But if this is only once in a while honestly just using like icloud, google photos or photocircle is probably easier. With any of the nas solutions you have to setup other family members accounts which they will not remember the password to or how to even access

[gleaming sedge]

problem is i dont have apple, google photos honestly SUCKS , photocircle i have no clue

[pliant berry]

Problem with Synology was that they started locking down their hardware and software. Like only allowing hard drives bought directly from them at a premium. They announced that they were removing this for upcoming units but it is concerning

[gleaming sedge]

if i bought a older unit from marketplace would still have some of them problems?

[pliant berry]

I’m not really sure. I don’t remember the full details with that whole story

[weak cedar]

If I use true nas, which recommend 16gb minimum is thst enough or do I need more then 16gb for truenass server storage

[opaque sedge]

[worn wave]

Really?

[opaque sedge]

Yup when felix was here he put up a warning abt those drivers

[worn wave]

I swear I had issues with 566

[pliant berry]

Really depends how much storage, drives and users you plan on using I believe

[dusk knot]

[nocturne flicker]

Am I supposed to know what Mr. Pibb is

Is it a Dr Pepper competitor

[dusk knot]

looks like some sort of doctor pepper?

[lone mango]

Had this article open about the m5 comparing to the m1 ultra

If it was intel it would be 2 perf cores and 8 e cores

[acoustic palm]

pretty sure dr pepper got like discont in usa or smth?

[lone mango]

I like the skew towards performance cores and not e core spam

[nocturne flicker]

No?

Why would Dr Pepper be discontinued

[acoustic palm]

oh not discont

[worn wave]

yup. Pepsi has Dr pepper, Coke's version is pibb

[dusk knot]

what

[nocturne flicker]

Pepsi does not have Dr Pepper

Dr Pepper is its own thing

[acoustic palm]

what

[velvet summit]

WHAT

[nocturne flicker]

Keurig Dr Pepper own Dr Pepper

[acoustic palm]

did yall not know this

[worn wave]

Huh, TIL

Dr pepper is elite

Up there with Baja blast

[velvet summit]

also technically speaking, coke would be the one with the dr pepper license

[dusk knot]

no

[nocturne flicker]

Apparently some countries have Pepsi making Dr Pepper, a select few have Coca Cola making Dr Pepper and the US and Canada have Keurig Dr Pepper

[velvet summit]

but yeah it's not one of their brands

[dusk knot]

i just drink soda

[acoustic palm]

tbf i saw it while scrolling reels

[velvet summit]

oh

pepsi also makes dr pepper i see

i just knew coca cola did some

[nocturne flicker]

I can see no conflict of interest in Coca Cola making both Mr Pibb and Dr Pepper

[idle nexus]

it's like Young Jeezy said

and they don't drink Pepsi

they just sell coke

should I swap copper pipes to stainless?

does stainless cause galvanic corrosion?

[nocturne flicker]

Ah, I see, the reason Mr Pibb is coming back is because Keurig got a court to end their contract with the syrup distributor for Coca Cola soda fountains and as such they need to replace it

[velvet summit]

stainless usually has worse thermal conductivity, also stainless steel likes to gall with other stainless steel

[ashen swan]

Wait

[nocturne flicker]

Honestly, kinda a bad move for Keurig, most places either have Pepsi or Cola fountains, nobody is going to spring for a dedicated Dr Pepper machine

[random osprey]

youd be surprised

[acoustic palm]

dr pepper is realllly popular

[nocturne flicker]

It is. But if Mr Pibb is sufficient to fill the void at the soda machines, what place will dedicate space maintenance and work on one machine for one beverage

[velvet summit]

i dont drink pepsi much
why is a sweeter flavour than coca cola desirable

[random osprey]

couldve sworn last year dr pepper passed up either pepsi or coke for a little

[velvet summit]

i usually drink coke and i still find that too sweet

though i usually drink diet coke

[tall pine]

Not bad. Here is my current ram tune.

[random osprey]

coke zero is the second greatest invention in the world 🗿

number 1 being pizza

[tranquil pebble]

i like pepperoni pizza with ranch on it

[nocturne flicker]

I prefer blue cheese

[tall pine]

You can do it!

[velvet summit]

blue cheese is so good

[tranquil pebble]

last time I was at a buffet, there were buffalo wings and I ate tons of them lol

[tall pine]

@idle nexus does SCL scale with voltage at all?

[nocturne flicker]

I'm not a wing guy

I despise getting sauce and grease on my hands and picking at a bone is not something I enjoy

[tall pine]

You clearly haven't learned the wing eating trick yet.

[nocturne flicker]

Also they are a waste of money

[tall pine]

Must grab the base of the wing bone's larger side, put the whole wing in your mouth, then get your teeth as far down as you can then pull the bone out of your mouth entirely. All the flesh comes clean off in one fell swoop.

I like the taste of wings, but the grease and bone is indeed a bit annoying.

[tall pine]

Oh hell nawh!

Jokes aside, the taste of blue cheese is way to strong for me.

[nocturne flicker]

I also don't eat bone in fried chicken for the same exact reason. I don't like interacting with a bone and grease

And it is also really expensive

[tall pine]

KFC is delicious though. The ones in Mexico and China. The ones in the United States just taste like plain fried chicken.

[acoustic palm]

i hate kfc

tastes horrible and is horrible

[nocturne flicker]

I don't like KFC either

[tall pine]

Depends widely on the KFC in question from my experience.

Some are great, others make me want to yell at the chefs till I get a refund.

[nocturne flicker]

Expensive + bone in fried chicken + the sides are trash

[acoustic palm]

and the chicken tastes horrible

[tranquil pebble]

the buffalo flavor is something I can't resist. It tastes so good to me.

[sinful blade]

Chilis honey chipotle chicken tenders > anything you guys will say

it is the best piece of food ive ever had

[lone mango]

food from home

[misty sparrow]

I used to have at least one soda per day

Now it's been at least a week since I've had a soda

[lone mango]

Unpatriotic

Don't worry so am I

[velvet summit]

that is crazy

[misty sparrow]

Sodas were legitimately the last big source of sugar in my diet

Ditched sweets a year ago

Hopefully it stays that way

[velvet summit]

i never got into sweets from when i was a child to now

[misty sparrow]

When I tell people that I would like to quit and not have one per day, everyone around me believes it's perfectly fine to keep drinking

[velvet summit]

i wasnt even prevented from having them, i've always just found them too sweet

[lone mango]

I avoid sweets like they will kill me

My brother says I need to live a little

[velvet summit]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-cat-gif-26460616

[misty sparrow]

They legitimately think I'm crazy

because I haven't had a soda in a long time a week

[velvet summit]

alcoholic to alcoholic communication be like

"have another drink"

[misty sparrow]

exactly

even brought up how this was like alcoholism

[nocturne flicker]

I have soda on occasion when I'm having a bleh day at work and want to end the night with something sweet. I drink diet though so I'm only killing my pancreas and not taking in calories

[velvet summit]

i drink maybe like 2-3 dozen cups of soda a year ish, usually diet coke or ginger ale

most of it is from costco lmao

[misty sparrow]

I always got soda when it was cheap and readily available most of the time, like from fountain drink stations

the 12 packs are expensive

[velvet summit]

dollar fifty for hotdog and soda is hard to beat

[pseudo raven]

i only drink diet

[velvet summit]

impossible even

[misty sparrow]

well, arizona tea is raising prices

[pseudo raven]

what

[misty sparrow]

wonder if the hot dog wil

[pseudo raven]

really

[misty sparrow]

they are considering it

[velvet summit]

the ceo was going to strangle whoever raises the price of the hotdogs

[pseudo raven]

🙁

they do deserve it

also that crap is packed with sugar

[velvet summit]

they have done some to reduce losses though

[nocturne flicker]

I like their diet half and half

[misty sparrow]

Well, Arizona tea bottles have multiple servings in one cup

[velvet summit]

many costco food courts require a membership to get food from now

[misty sparrow]

it's not like a normal can where it's entirely one serving

[velvet summit]

because prior to this, anybody could just walk in and get a dollar fifty hotdog + soda and leave with no membership

[pseudo raven]

ive never seen someone

drink half an arizona can tho

[velvet summit]

alot of serving sizes are completely unreasonable

though i believe the FDA had cracked down on a few of those

[pseudo raven]

its 40 g of sugar in that one arizona can

[velvet summit]

though idk if they even have the resources to do that anymore

[misty sparrow]

Not entirely true right? That's probably 40g per serving size

One arizona can is roughly 2.5 servings

[pseudo raven]

nah

i have a can on my desk at the moment

it says 40g in the container

*42

[misty sparrow]

What does it say for serving amount

[pseudo raven]

to be exact

per serving is 23

per container is 42

[nocturne flicker]

Nah, they have the resources, they are just too busy doing other stuff. Like getting rid of fluoride supplements

[misty sparrow]

okay, that's not bad actually

one 12oz coke is about 30g

[pseudo raven]

i mean your daily intake is supposed to be like 50 or something right

[velvet summit]

what supplements

people are just eating fluoride?

[misty sparrow]

How are people getting fluoride deficiencies?

[pseudo raven]

in the water

[velvet summit]

i mean, there's the fluoride paste that you get applied to your teeth at the dentist which you notably are not supposed to consume

[pseudo raven]

its in

the tap water

[misty sparrow]

Exactly

[velvet summit]

yeah

[misty sparrow]

So how would one even get any sort of deficiencies?

Would they just not brush their teeth?

[nocturne flicker]

If you live in an area with low fluoride content in your water you used to be recommened to get some flouride tablets as a kid to make sure your teeth don't decay

[pseudo raven]

idk if

[velvet summit]

just go to the dentist

[nocturne flicker]

You gonna pay for that?

[velvet summit]

oh

right

[nocturne flicker]

Not everyone has dental insurance man

[velvet summit]

yall dont get free dental insurance until like 18

rip

[nocturne flicker]

We don't get anything and we are actively destroying what little we do get

[velvet summit]

does your uhhhh mediaid or whatever not have anything with dental

[nocturne flicker]

Medicaid does have dental plans but Medicaid is not universal and we are currently guutting it

[velvet summit]

oh

😔

[lone mango]

I never understood

Just bruh the teeth

brush

And dont eat sugar

[nocturne flicker]

Stares at the average US diet Sure

[lone mango]

we so cooked ong

[misty sparrow]

How much of that diet consists of soda and sweets?

[nocturne flicker]

In many places throughout the country soda replaces water

[misty sparrow]

Pretty sure if you take all that away there's little sugar there, don't know where else you could get that from aside from condiments and breakfast items

[lone mango]

You don't even have to drink soda to still get a lot of sugar

So much food is ultra processed

[nocturne flicker]

Especially in food deserts, it is very common for your primary drink to be soda

[lone mango]

typically has sugar added in

I like to call it predigested food rather than ultra processed

Because that is what it is

[misty sparrow]

What is a food desert?

[nocturne flicker]

Places without access to or limited access to fresh food

They usually also have poor water systems because they tend to be poorer areas

[grand wasp]

D:

sodaaaaa

[nocturne flicker]

Also we just have places where the water just isn't safe

So you are either getting soda or bottled water

[velvet summit]

what makes it not safe? heavy metals?

or is it just bacteria

[nocturne flicker]

Heavy metals, contaminated water supplies, various other toxins

[velvet summit]

i see

that is a bit more difficult then

[lone mango]

I wonder if water filters would fare well in terms of cost

[nocturne flicker]

For example, when I lived in Wilkes Barre PA for college, we could not drink the water for ages because the water was contaminated

[lone mango]

bottled water is expensive

[velvet summit]

it'll probably pay for itself fairly quickly

maybe 2-4 years

[lone mango]

Nah even sooner

[velvet summit]

since you need to account for filter replacements

[lone mango]

Even then

[nocturne flicker]

Also fracking exists

[velvet summit]

you'll need to change filters more often if the water is especially contaminated

[nocturne flicker]

And places with a lot of fracking also tend to get natural gas in the water

[nocturne flicker]

This is your reminder that Flint Michigan did not have water declared to be meeting the EPA's safe drinking standards for 11 years from 2014 to literally 2025

[worn wave]

Some places (like where I grew up) are scared of flouride and don't put it in the tap water. For children it can lead to pretty poor teeth. Thankfully my parents had me use a flouride mouthwash to compensate :)

[rocky loom]

Hello what can i use to put my laptop screen on 2 monitors? i only have 1 port on the laptop will a splitter work?

[craggy shoal]

Thunderbolt or DisplayLink adapter

[tranquil pebble]

GIMP on Linux can open a 576 megapixel image while using less than 6 GB of RAM... but Gwenview does not even try lol.

[craggy shoal]

I put Mint on a secondary system and it hasn't been a great experience lmao

Just let me open Bambu Studio without issues

I guess Orca Slicer is available lol

I guess Flatpak because I hate having to go through the terminal just to get the program to open 💀

BRAH WHAT

Wait Mint has Bambu Studio through its Software Manager bruh

TIL lmao

[tranquil pebble]

Figured it out. Just needed to set an environment var to remove the alloc limit

[rocky loom]

An i able to seperate the audio too?

[craggy shoal]

Yes

[rocky loom]

With a thunderbolt

Okay

how do i do that ?

[craggy shoal]

Google can help with that

[rancid juniper]

I'm about to cave in and sell my 7800xt so I can get a 9070xt I can't take it anymore

😭

[craggy shoal]

I'm waiting for 5000 Super

[rancid juniper]

Oh I forgot they're coming

[craggy shoal]

About to pair my 4070 Super with a 5080 Super and run Lossless scaling. The frame rate will be NUTS

[proper pumice]

Hey

[craggy shoal]

[proper pumice]

Um

I'm no bot

[craggy shoal]

Might actually not be a bot then

[proper pumice]

[proper pumice]

Where

[craggy shoal]

Eff Linux. I'm going back to Windows

[craggy shoal]

wow

#building-and-recc-chat is probably your best bet

[proper pumice]

Ok thanks

[craggy shoal]

I don't think we have a specific channel for console help

[proper pumice]

How did u post a pic

[craggy shoal]

Level up first

[proper pumice]

Oh

[proud jackal]

Bye LA

[craggy shoal]

Please tell me you're not moving to Texas

Colorado is accepting "I just moved from California to Texas because of the cheaper cost of living" applicants btw

[dusk knot]

Where is the concert?

[craggy shoal]

This dumb ahh Dell docking station: you get a free trial for Ethernet access that you can renew by unplugging the Ethernet cable and plugging it back in. Trial expires every five minutes

I'm about to lose my mind

I will swear word if I'm not careful

[idle nexus]

which card does the frame gen? 4070 right?

[craggy shoal]

Yeah 4070 Super would be the frame gen card

[idle nexus]

damn that's nuts

[craggy shoal]

💀💀

[idle nexus]

I've only doen the two GPU frame gen with a 3060 & 1080ti lol

1440p ultra on RE4 ran pretty well tho

[craggy shoal]

At that point I'd probably upgrade to 4K lmao

[idle nexus]

lol it was just to mess around & the monitor only did 1440

I wanna try it with 3080ti & 4090 but it would be such a mission to take everything apart

[craggy shoal]

Would there be less latency in using a second/local GPU for frame gen in LS rather than a single GPU and the game's in-game FG?

[idle nexus]

lol if I said I knew the answer, I'd be lying

[craggy shoal]

Still gonna try it lmao

[idle nexus]

I also forgot to try 2x 1080ti on my Z690 U-X because it supports SLI

maybe less latency cuz of high bandwidth bridge? doubt it nvm lol

frame gen is weird. It's like an overlay

[craggy shoal]

Bruh the 5080 Super is gonna have a 415W TDP? Might have to rearrange plans for a dual-GPU setup lmao

[hard lily]

https://www.tomshardware.com/desktops/pc-building/microwave-repurposed-into-slick-custom-all-in-one-pc-door-serves-as-display-motherboard-rotates-on-the-turntable-and-stream-deck-used-for-keypad

[idle nexus]

lol that is a bad ass microwave

[craggy shoal]

I have a 1000W power supply laying around but still lol. 220W + 415W + 120W (CPU) is a lot lmao

[idle nexus]

I use cablemod adapters for 12vhpwr & the only issues I've ever had were with the sense pins

once they were lined up correctly it worked fine

the 1000w PSU would probably be fine

what sucks is trying to cool multiple GPUs so close to each other

[craggy shoal]

Yeah cooling would be my biggest issue tbh

[idle nexus]

for me the top 1080ti would be like 15-20C hotter than the bottom one cuz there's like a half inch between them

[craggy shoal]

I might just go for some crazy PCIe riser setup and mount the second GPU elsewhere in the case lmaooo

[worn night]

i recommended him to go here instead of the asus server lol

[craggy shoal]

Yeah idk why bro's first thought was Newegg lol

Even then it should've been MS support and not a Discord server

[worn night]

its got smarter people

[worn wave]

I believe LSFG with 2 GPUs will have slightly lower latency but dlss4 FG will probably look better

[craggy shoal]

I probably wouldn't use LS's upscaling. Just their FG

Lmao I might not have to use upscaling at all atp 💀

[worn wave]

Yeah by look better I mean the interpolated frames will look better

[opaque sedge]

Its got upscaling too? damn

[craggy shoal]

Yep. Just not DLSS of course

[opaque sedge]

Kinda wanna try lossless ngl to use on skyrim modlists

[craggy shoal]

It works better on graphically intensive games btw. It isn't much help for anything CPU-intensive

[opaque sedge]

What if games are cpu intensive enough that gpus dont max out but u can use that headroom for frame gen

Since frame gen does eat up some of ur gpus power

[craggy shoal]

I don't think it works like that lol

[opaque sedge]

[sinful blade]

I work 40 hours and 30 minutes this week

I’m dying

For context, this is the second* full time job I’ve had

[olive plaza]

https://tenor.com/view/rookie-numbers-gif-26135237

working only a single full time job in this economy is wild work

As a 38 year old dad, I smirked when I read that

[sinful blade]

It’s harder to find a job that will accept that my wife is disabled and I will have to leave at a moments notice sometimes to help in case of a broken bone

[olive plaza]

I'm surprised jobs can legally discriminate against that

but also, you say this is the second full time job you've had? uh, you already have a full time job as your wife's caretaker

so good on you

[craggy shoal]

What's her condition? If it's ADHD, I wouldn't bother checking that "I'm disabled" box. I have ADHD and I stopped checking that box. I ended up getting more interviews

[olive plaza]

Also I'm fortunate that my job is OK with me leaving at a moment's notice as well, I have Crohn's disease and I wear an ostomy bag. If the bag's adhesive fails, I need to immediately leave to go home and shower and change out the whole thing

[frosty sinew]

Yo

Is 200 usd + an old iMac with it for 6700xt

I had mine listed for 250

Gen 4 i7 I think

[sinful blade]

Osteogenesis Imperfecta

[craggy shoal]

Ahhh yeah that’s totally different

[sinful blade]

They can’t, but they can blame it on me as unexcused leaving

[frosty sinew]

Ok 180 for old imac

[olive plaza]

what

are you trying to sell your 6700xt for 250?

and asking if 180 plus an old imac is a good trade

[frosty sinew]

I put it at 250 expecting 200

[olive plaza]

that's wild

[frosty sinew]

But 180 plus a 4th gen i7 imac with 32gb of ddr3

Plus ssd and hdd

[olive plaza]

nah that mac hasn't had security updates in at least 5 years

[frosty sinew]

Seems aight

[frosty sinew]

Security smecurity

[olive plaza]

so unless you need an all-in-one that you'll load Linux on

nobody buys imacs that old

[frosty sinew]

Yeah ik

But 20 bucks

He said 200 without

[olive plaza]

I'd tell him 200 with the imac

bc the imac is a paperweight

[frosty sinew]

Yeah thats what I figured

[olive plaza]

the effort you will have to go to, in order to get rid of that imac, is worth more than the imac

[frosty sinew]

Im just getting model number to confirm

Just to be sure

Ill prob just be like 210 no imac

[olive plaza]

how long have you had it listed at 250 for

that's another thing if you've only had it up for a couple days, just wait for someone who's not being a PITA

[frosty sinew]

Like 2 weeks

[frosty sinew]

I mean if he takes 210 thats more than what I paid

I paid 250 cad

Alr he agreed

210 usd cash

[proper pumice]

Hi

[proper pumice]

Why buy that much games if u don't play them

[worn night]

its a meme

i cannot relate to it thankfully

[frigid stag]

cuz they must consoom

[uncut hollow]

where can i post a screenshot of a product on the newegg site

im very confused

[rancid juniper]

I like how when i removed my gpu and cmos, the cpu decided to be stupid in finding the ram and fixed it by slightly making the cpu cooler loose

😭

[velvet summit]

translation: "i dont have any clothes that i want to wear today", "i don't have any games that i want to play right now"

[frosty sinew]

Gotta love making money on gpus

Up 45 cad

[rancid juniper]

mining?

[frosty sinew]

Nah

I bought a 6700xt for 250cad

Like a year ago

Then I just sold it for 200 usd

Sorry up 30 bucks

Cuz our dollar is shi

[proper pumice]

Hmm

[rancid juniper]

nice

[frosty sinew]

Its great

And i got a year out of it

Some quick math i got a 9070xt for 300usd

[rancid juniper]

Awesome I aim to do the same lol, I do like my 7800xt but the 9070xt seems tempting

[frosty sinew]

oh yeah it was awesome while it worked lol

its sad that 6000 series support just got dropped but

[languid drum]

Amd threadripper 5955wx started off at 52% off now 49% newegg can buy for stock

[dusk knot]

Wait one more gen

[rancid juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/ineedit-needit-spongebob-squarepants-need-it-gif-4883495

[rancid juniper]

seems like they backtracked tho

but they're not trustworthy

[frosty sinew]

good

but yeah

[dusk knot]

The 9700xt is only one gen ahead of what you have. Why I have my 5080 now

It's already a 70 percent improvement

[rancid juniper]

9070xt goes against 5070ti i think

[dusk knot]

Hmmm....yeah

There was a video just now by hardware unboxed

NgreedAi needs to do better next gen. Idk why they hold back

[rancid juniper]

hmmm maybe something called monopoly + ngaf

[frosty sinew]

Yea

[dusk knot]

My 5080 should be a 4090 . Smh

[rancid juniper]

should've been a 4090 super and so forth

its the same for AMD

these companies just like to overprice things with little perf improvement

[dusk knot]

Yeah ....my OC is only 10 percent away from stock

[rancid juniper]

🗿

[dusk knot]

Makes me sad

But hey, the card does everything I want it to do

I can run just about anything at 1440p

[rancid juniper]

yea these cards are cracked for 1440p, can't wait to see future offerings

hopefully the super lineup isn't cursed

And for AMD to go crazy on flagships again

[dusk knot]

More VRAM for locally runned AI

Kind of tempting

[rancid juniper]

ig

well ill just leave my 7800xt for sale in the meantime until someone caves in

Im still gaming with it tho

[uncut hollow]

where can i post images

Hello @uncut hollow! It appears that you're asking for help. Please ask again in the appropriate category so you can get faster help from people specializing in that field. Your question may not be answered here.

[sinful blade]

Talk a little more

Tell us your problem

[worn night]

bro if you never say your problem how we gonna help you

[uncut hollow]

it is hard to explain in words

can i dm one of u with the screenshot

@sinful blade@worn night

[worn night]

yeah u can

send me it and ill send it here

ok yeah that doesnt make sense @uncut hollow

it says 5060ti then it says 9070xt

[frigid stag]

overpriced ass pc

[uncut hollow]

yeah its stupid

and u think i can trust this?

[uncut hollow]

canadian prices

[frigid stag]

ah

[worn night]

you can trust newegg themselves but dunno about that pc

[uncut hollow]

this is like 1100 - 1200 usd

[worn night]

Oh holy then thats a great price

thats worth it

[uncut hollow]

1,138 USD to be exact

[frigid stag]

ok

[worn night]

even if its a 5060ti

especially worth it if it comes with 9070xt

[uncut hollow]

ye

its just really weird

[worn night]

look at the pictures of it

or send the listing link

[uncut hollow]

makes it seem even less trustable then before considering that it only has 1 review

[uncut hollow]

[worn night]

i can tell what gpu in the images

ok so it is a 5060ti in the image

[uncut hollow]

i guess but people say theres many scams on newegg

[worn night]

azza the brand is an ok brand

[uncut hollow]

so idk

[worn night]

has lots of prebuilts and cases

hold up im forgetting the most important part

[uncut hollow]

theres an ABS one thats 200 more and is only a 5060 base not the TI version

[worn night]

why not custom build

[uncut hollow]

if u had to choose which one

dont have the time or need

rather just spend the extra money to get a prebuild

[worn night]

you cant set aside one day to build it

[worn night]

ok no erase that mindset, you will get better parts and performance by building it

better everything

[uncut hollow]

https://www.newegg.ca/abs-cyclone-ruby-gaming-desktop-pc-geforce-rtx-5060-amd-ryzen-7-9700x-32gb-ddr5-1tb-ssd-cr9700x5060/p/N82E16883360834?Item=N82E16883360834

[worn night]

the 5060 is trash heck no

[uncut hollow]

its the same basically as the azza one

both 8gb

[worn night]

you should really just come up with a budget and build

[uncut hollow]

dont need more than that im not playing games with high graphics

[worn night]

5060 ti is a big jump over 5060 no matter the vram

[uncut hollow]

mostly CPU based games

[worn night]

At that price a 5060 is literally ash price to perf

so do not get that

[uncut hollow]

I guess

ight

one more thing

nvm

[worn night]

build it 👍🏻👍🏻

nobody buys prebuilts unless they are too scared or low intelligence to build one

and you always get better stuff

[worn night]

all prebuilt companies on earth will get the basic components, skimp on everything they can, and make it look good

I can win all sorts of stuff

No money required

Just need to answer a question or two about the reward

[icy ore]

darn

nope

[sinful blade]

I just won a small backpack tonight too

[fair onyx]

something is wrong with my expensive ass monitor, and I have no idea how to fix it

its an OLED, but for some reason it looks like an LCD. The black levels are raised to like a birght grey and there is almost no contrast

I have reset my PC, my drivers, my monitor, nothing is fixing it

It looks so bad

Oh my god, the other modes look even worse

@sinful bladeHave you ever seen this? I even just reset all my monitor settings to factory default, and it helped none

[royal crow]

Won a new knife

120mm fan for reference

[rancid juniper]

Does discord supports h.265? (HEVC?)

[royal crow]

like for streaming? idk

[rancid juniper]

imma check if its possible to embed a hevc video here

[royal crow]

might be possible

definitely not possible to embed an hvac tho

[craggy shoal]

I need Discord to support NVENC

[rancid juniper]

oh it works

[rancid juniper]

lol it hasn't?

[rancid juniper]

I think AV1 is the only one that doesn't embed atp

[royal crow]

ey beamng

what map is that

[royal crow]

ah

[craggy shoal]

Does it? I haven't heard of Discord supporting it

[rancid juniper]

i mean nvenc is only used for recording

[fair onyx]

this makes my OLED look almost as bad as an LCD. This is so cursed

[rancid juniper]

Codecs to encode/decode are H.264 H.265 av1 and maybe some more

idk

[craggy shoal]

I wouldn't know lol. I'm not a codecs person as much as I should be

[tranquil pebble]

one of these days I'm going to buy a ghost pepper or Carolina Reaper and take a bite out of it

[fair onyx]

discord uses a horrible amount of power when you stream on GPU. Its why I choose to stream on CPU instead

[craggy shoal]

So many hobbies that I’ve yet to fully master one lmao

[fair onyx]

1080p 60FPS was using like 150 watts on my 3090. 1440p 60fps used like 8 watts on my CPU

[rancid juniper]

Just use on igpu

ez

[tranquil pebble]

Discord uses a horrible amount of power when it is running at all

[fair onyx]

I would, if there was an easy way to make it do that

[craggy shoal]

My computer uses a horrible amount of power. That’s why I put a tow hitch for my bike rack and a cold air intake on my car

[rancid juniper]

possible actually

just a bit annoying to do

running that HEVC video i posted on discord takes a bit

i wonder how it'd fare on my igpu

brb

video runs very smooth on the UHD 770 but takes quite a bit

[craggy shoal]

My fuel tank rn

[rancid juniper]

get that oil up

[craggy shoal]

You get oiled up ;)

(Asian gf coming soon hopefully)

[rancid juniper]

no you first i insist 🙂

[north crescent]

I think it technically does, but it uses it terribly or smth so you still get high CPU usage

[rancid juniper]

bruh

[north crescent]

Where my NVDEC? Discord why you no gib NVDEC??

[rancid juniper]

saving moners

[dusk knot]

I keep forgetting that UHD 770 can decode AV1

[mental yoke]

Windows 10 iot ltsc is so comfy

[fair onyx]

My damn PC has been having so many issues

[dusk knot]

Y

[fair onyx]

It keeps blue screening a few times in a row and the being fine for like 2 weeks. It just blue screened on me. And now it freezing in BIOS and post

Like, it can't get past either. I tried to enter bios and it worked for about 10 seconds and hard locked up and now it can't do anything

It's frozen on the motherboard boot too

I REALLY do not wanna deal with all this mess

It's also having an issue where it boots without any of the fan hubs or connectors working

And then my software fan controller complains and my PC runs at 100% fans which is unbearable

Just powered it off for a few minutes and now I'm trying to see if it will do anything

Now I can't even get into bios. It just sits infinitely at a black screen with nothing happening

[icy ore]

mannnn wtf

[fair onyx]

I'm just sitting here, and its doing literally nothing

It was displaying, but just displaying black

I genuinely don't even know if something like this is fixable, cause there is no info on what the hell is broken

I just restarted it again

It's booting

And it just froze

Oh wait

It's in windows

Blue screened immediately

For like 0.3 seconds. Didn't even get a chance to see what it said

[tall pine]

@lone mango @idle nexus it seems for my cores to maintain 5.75Ghz steady in ST or Double Thread loads I need to keep my CPU around 45c. At 50c it throttles between 5.7-5.75ghz.

Also I am currently at -45 CO for core 1.

[fair onyx]

I am in windows now, for who knows how long before it blue screens again

[tall pine]

What's poppin?

[fair onyx]

see above 😅

[tall pine]

@fair onyx do you have any backup parts? I have a strong hunch that this is either a faulty board or CPU.

[fair onyx]

it booted without the fan controllers again, but this time its stayed quiet

[tall pine]

When RAM dies on DDR5, it outright dies.

So I doubt it's RAM.

[fair onyx]

people have said that about this PC and my previous one many times. Its only ever once been a hardware issue. People are waaayyyyy too quick to suggest hardware. It is 99.99% of the time not hardware

Its for sure not RAM, i have actually mem checked it once this all started. It started slow but has gotten worse

its weird cause my PC was on for 16 days with no issues. Even went to sleep and woke up just fine. But now the issues are back out of nowhere

[tall pine]

Is this AM5?

2/4 of my AM5 builds, AMD sent me a faulty CPU with extremely similar issues. Freezing on bios, stuck in training, random crashes with kernel error.

@fair onyx

.

[fair onyx]

Nope, 12th gen intel

[tall pine]

If your lucky and it really is just software then do this. @fair onyx on a different PC get a safe copy of your latest bios and flash the motherboard of the problem child.

[fair onyx]

I do wanna upgrade semi-soon, but there aren't any particularly good options right now

[tall pine]

If that doesn't work, wipe the boot drive and do a clean windows install.

[fair onyx]

I'm kinda just sitting here until there is a generation worth buying an upgrade for

[lone mango]

You could update uefi and get raptor lake

[lone mango]

[fair onyx]

that would barely be an upgrade, and it would be to chips with known hardware level defects on all chips, so I think I am good on that 😅

[tall pine]

Newegg has 13900K and 14900K CPUs for like $300-350 every couple of weeks for sale in the Refurb section.

[lone mango]

That is why I said update uefi

[fair onyx]

yeah, unfortunately I don't see either of those being good enough to update to

[lone mango]

What do you have rn

12600k

[fair onyx]

not worth it, and they don't offer anything I need

12600k

I don't need more CPU, I need more PCIe, which neither offers

[tall pine]

9950x3D run in X3D only mode if heat is an issue.

5.55ghz stock, 5.75ghz with +200pbo. Higher if you do bCLK or eCLK.

[lone mango]

There have been some good arrow lake discounts recently

[fair onyx]

I appreciate the suggestions, but there are no good options for me to upgrade to as of now

[lone mango]

If you don't want that then you can wait for the refresh

[tall pine]

Alright.

[fair onyx]

I was considering that for a bit, until I realize that their PCIe is barely any better, at which point its a huge money sink and the PCIe will still be a huge bottleneck

I just have to hope that the next AMD/Intel releases are good. I would pray they finally add actual dual channel memory. If they did, I would upgrade right now

[tall pine]

Oh btw @lone mango I am running -60 CO on core 1. So far no issues and it's dropped temps enough that I am maintaining about 48c in SuperPi versus gradually going over 50c with -45 CO.

Averaging 5.73Ghz under load with regular hits to 5.75ghz.

[lone mango]

arrow lake z890 has 48 lanes

[fair onyx]

I like my CPU a lot, its been great for what I do. I am just not sure where this issue is stemming from. Most of the blue screens point to memory issue. I have done 4 memory checks now and its been fine, its not the memory

[fair onyx]

the 48 lanes is nice, if they actually made boards that used it properly. And half of the lanes are split, so its really only 28 lanes IIRC, which my CPU has 24... lol

[tall pine]

I just watched C1T1 do 5.75Ghz flat for about 4 seconds. @lone mango

[lone mango]

[lone mango]

Thats pretty good

[fair onyx]

I have looked pretty extensively into upgrading for a while. I am not super serious about it right now cause, again, no particularly good options unfortunately

[lone mango]

I have only hit 5.7 like 3 times for a half second

And never again

[tall pine]

Do I try -75 CO?

[fair onyx]

I have been considering getting a strix halo mini PC or something. The only good looking one is the Framework one, but that one is horrifically overpriced, so I haven't pulled the trigger there either

[tall pine]

I love that MSI lets me set CO values down to -255, giving the user the choice of trying that low.

Unlike Asus or Gigabyte that caps it to -60 for their standard boards.

[tall pine]

What CO?

Actually better yet, what temps.

I find that Temps are the #1 limiter for AM5.

[lone mango]

At that time it was -50

Idk the temps

[fair onyx]

what I would kill for is just a PC with a decent CPU, 3x 8 lane gen 4 PCIe slots, and support for fast mem

[lone mango]

If i had to guess probably like 70c

[tall pine]

Mine won't hit 5.75ghz over 55c, at least not regularly.

So I need to keep temps very low.

Tis is the reason I want to do a direct die loop so badly.

[lone mango]

Full load single core is like 5.6

In games i see 5.62

[tall pine]

Solid.

[lone mango]

Only on my mc server did i see a few peaks to 5.7

Nowhere else

[tall pine]

Cores 0 and 1 have been doing about 5.7 in games. Heat being the limiter.

Core 0 does 5.7-5.75 flat when running my modded server using essential.

@lone mango -75 posted holy!

Core 1 is currently doing 5.73-5.75 easily.

Dipps to 5.712.

Averaging 5.74Ghz

I set my fans to max speed, Core 0, Thread 0 is now doing 5.75ghz flat.

.

I am gonna try -100 CO.

[craggy shoal]

Has anybody checked on Jamaica?

[tall pine]

?

[craggy shoal]

Massive hurricane

[tall pine]

I haven't.

On a side note.

I am proud to say, Core 1 Thread 0 now does 5.75Ghz flat with -100 CO!

Well flat being like +5 seconds at a time.

Kind of funny

What

[craggy shoal]

lol

[dusk knot]

Is something missing?

[craggy shoal]

Nah I just think it's funny:
"There are people in bunkers" "kinda funny lol"

[tall pine]

-100 CO on Core 0 passed SuperPi 32M on both threads, and passed multiple iterations of VT3, @lone mango

[dusk knot]

Huh

Ok motor

[worn night]

should i disown my cousin

[craggy shoal]

bro said lmao — nah 😭

[royal crow]

lmao — nah

Ok, what the actual hell is wrong with my PC. Now its skipping frames even on desktop, and its lagging so hard that task manager is even crashing

[tall pine]

have you considered getting a temporary cpu and or board from amazon to test for potential hardware issues?

Also, just to check, you don't have twist ties or anything in your case that could short the board do you?

[tranquil pebble]

just gonna say that killing caco demons in doom is so satisfying lol

[dusk knot]

yes

[misty sparrow]

which one

[tranquil pebble]

2016 and Eternal

Eternal especially with the platforming stuff. I once glory killed multiple cacos before landing.
