Feel so stupid
I didn't realize motherboard wifi was just a m.2 wifi card vertically?
Like
I thought it was built into the chipset for some reason
I was reading the manual for this new build I'm doing to see the PCIE versions
And I see "wifi module pre installed in m.2 e key"
And I'm like
I didn't see an e key wifi slot
And apparently most motherboard manufacturers just have a vertical slot in the IO and plug a wifi card in
Ah, and the schedule 1 specifically states that it is for stuff reported on a 1099k. So despite the fact that the IRA tells you to report income from all of those sales, you technically don't have to report anything from them until you get a 1099k
I just checked all my motherboards I'm flabbergasted rn
This is stupid and the tax code presented on the website needs an overhaul for more clarity. Good thing we are cutting the agency's budget and cut the staff down heavily

Hey Guys.
What would a good modem router combo be in 2025 that works with Cox cable lines?
I’m so out of touch with modem/router combos. lol
I know it’s for my brother, he wants something simple. Plug and play.
Would be nice if they made good 2 in 1s though because I feel like there is a market for that
He has the Arris SBG8300 currently which is a badass modem/router combo.
Or at least it was a while ago.
So he will probably want something similar to the SBG8300
It’s by Arris
Guys is there anybody here who can help me with algebra
Hello @sharp charm! 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.
Thanks bot but I don't think there's a math channel🙄
unfortunately there is no algebra channel
So am I allowed to ask or no
I mean you are allowed to ask lol
I might be able to help u but im on literature mode rn
I'm factoring trinomials
Im out
lol thanks qmb
Really I just need a formula or something
these kids dont even know about ai
Oh I know that it sucls at math
Suck*
Chatgpt is a chat bot it's designed for reading and writing
Also makes mistakes like all the time
Plus I'm trying to actually comprehend the material not just get answers
youtube is the place for that probably
Time to go watch an Indian for 20 mins
Doesn't help that I have 5 papers due
Math wasn't hard until they gave us the texas instruments nspire
Students doing anything besides doing their work until the last minute challenge
Okay it's technically do in 2 weeks and I've had it for a week
I can do up to binomial expansions
learning trinomial factoring propably next semester
oh thats not bad
nspire is also fun because a lot of the menu options are very different from the 84 which is used everywhere
Are you kidding me,am I going to have to relearn everything
it's fine though once you learn. just might struggle following along with professors or tutorials
personally I always used either the ti-nspire or 92
My teacher disabled nsolve on out calculators so I've just been using desmos on my computer
I think I know the source of my procrastination
your pc telling you it's gaming time?
ahh, bocchi calls
Fr
Chatgpt has been getting better and better with math, as long as you double check its work, it can be a great learning tool
still not trusting it
i wouldnt rely on it at all
Especially for anything that's not niche
just watch youtube lol
The lower the level the more likely it had a ton of training data for it
it's barely good for taht
its pretty useless unless u know the thing enough to where you can find the mistakes
its [redacted] for anything with numbers
The biggest advantage is that it aggregates the information you need for you, the ability of chatgpt to actually use that information to solve the problem can be iffy, but it will give you all of the sources which you can double check
3
no way am I trusting that with my education
the sources are usually garbage. it gives wrong info all the time based on random shit like some reddit thread
Ask it for a source and you'll then see that it's useless
This is what I try to tell people at school but they are all ordinary people not nerds so they don't understand me
yea
It's like Wikipedia lol
well at least if you go to reddit youre getting misled by a human instead
and reddit is full of clueless people who think they know things like this
Skim it for information and cite the sources that it cites
I will take that any day over the alternative
There's terrible information on Wikipedia but in general it's a great source
yeah with ai u basically get misinformation based on misinformation
sometimes
hm
unless u know enough about the thing where u can tell its wrong its risky
They’re out in force today
“Explain to me the intel issue like you don’t know what it is”
but that's just anybody discussing the issue 
idiot bot just resent the message lol
I've been rocking my 11600 for almost 2 years now 😨
Oh I thought you posted a glam thing lol
Gleam
13620H is the first Intel CPU I have had since Haswell lol
only got it because the laptop cost me less than a Chromebook
Bot posts be like:
i never win
Oh my god....time to get another gaming mouse. The one I have is dying. You have great recommendations in the ultralight department that's going to last for years? @random osprey
Or.....was it a ghost who's the mouse expert?
I'm soo sorry for confusing you two.
Wolfgang is a mouse nerd
Ok I was right....uuughh
ultralight 
I kind of am but not really tbh
Yeah an ultralight gaming mouse
I had some models in my head but forgot them
i gotchu
Too light and easy to crush
its better, its 8 grams 
Lol
its custom idk how this mf even uses it though

no side buttons either
The memories are flooding back to me now 🙃

chinese brand. i was in the chinese gaming peripheral scene before they went mainstream
what mouse you on now
the dream gamer i had and then like 2 years later they popped off
Ok....I'm going to add notes
For wolf and ghost
alright....no more mixups

guys....i cant. im terrible
i have a container somewhere with like 8 mice in it
so wolf, whats the best mouse around atm?
100 dollars or less
gwolves fenrir asym 8k
Ultralight and ergonomic
Finger
palm
oh wait thats tiny
Kid named finger
ergo as in like you want it to feel nice or ergo as in actually ergo like a g502 where its shaped to force you to put your fingers in a certain way?
whyis Nintendo using FSR 1 on Switch 2?
is dav3 what youre looking for
dav3 is over budget unless he goes wired or if the wireless is on a really good sale
my mouse is dead
which also is a question, wired or wireless?
dang i thought u were a ultra low latency gamer
latency in wireless mice are really good right now
theres like 3 wired mice that actually beat wireless
I think the wireless latency thing is just fud
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
yeah on wired the cable shouldnt touch the desk
like a bungee maybe
but ye wireless is “freer”
wireless hasnt disappointed me yet
all the wireless ones i know are expensive ngl
The x2h wired cable is really light and is kinked so it won’t drag
you had superlight?
pro wireless
dav3 pro is sometimes on sale hmm
True but my wireless is 100 exactly but I think I have seen it for cheaper
its like 50g
50
50-60 iirc
lets see what wolf has to say
i need it light and fast.
nothing else
with thumb buttons ofc. thats every mouse now
I'm right handed
It also weighs 51 grams and the wireless is 54
dav3 better for palm imo
let me look that up
Oh there is the x3
overhead of other upscalers might be an issue? not sure though
Nah they are just incompetent
theyre good now
what the hell is this
$149 btw
what are these
iphone sock pocket
introducing I-Socks
No lol from pulsar
oh right
@dusk knot
lamzu paro $92
pulsar xlite (any of them) $99-$130
razer death adder v3 hyperspeed or pro $50 - $150 (sometimes on sale)
wlmouse sword x $155 but can go on sale closer to $100
highkey making a ergo list is hard cause everyone was making ambi mice over the past few years 
please no 
forgor what other companies copied shapes
hhmm
JP, look into this company called McHose, they make good mice for the price that are real cheap
I have one myself and it's really reliable. Doesn't look like a gaming mouse too which I like
What you think about x3
Ergo design
presenting the iPhone Pocket
Also slightly bigger than x2h which I might like more tbh
not gonna lie, didnt know they had another ergo mouse aside from the xlite 
so used to seeing only ambi mice
I knew there was a third x but I forgot what it looked like
hhmmmmm
Yeah x2 is cool
buy tenz mouse uwu
55g .......
Too small for me tho
you could also just go the route of wired mouse i with a bungee, jp
not ergo but razer viper v2 pro is $50 rn
granted, will also say, the route of mouse + bungee also basically costs the same as a wireless mouse depending on the mouse and bungee combo 
JP how many grams do you consider too heavy
I dont want to spend $130 on a mouse
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09VCR969M
Not quite as top tier as the V3 Pro but it's like 1/3 the price lol
Enjoy ultra-responsive, low-latency gaming with lightning-fast speed that outperforms other wireless tech. Streamline your setup and free up a USB port by connecting your wireless mouse and keyboard to a single dongle—a multi-device support feature available in our latest Razer HyperSpeed periphe...
i want around 50g
how's 46g
X2h wired is 51
Idk if you will tell the difference though
It also comes with their superglides
yeah idc about the newest features as long as it has 8khz
you may need an additional dongle for 8khz
not for my grip. its made for claw
where you live jp, you live within like 2 hours of me? i can just let you borrow one of my mice
im in florida
nvm then

think theo the only mod on west coast with me
west coast best coast
The west coast is inferior.
Sincerely, East Coast Gang
take a look at this
https://www.mchose.store/products/mchose-l7-series-ultra-lightweight-wireless-gaming-mouse
damn
East Coast Beast Coast, West Coast Less Coast
unless jp dont mind ambi in which case, my list can and will be like 80 mice
ambi......
yeah. no
ngl, even after many years with the logitech pro wireless, it can feel strange at times
hmm might get the newer one then if it has that
v3 pro also has better latency and sensor accuracy
I think it's the best mouse out there in terms of specs, could be wrong tho
gif spam/giveaway channels when
probably is
those theres always some new mouse coming out but theyre p similar usually

only white is available on their website
probably out of stock at other retailers
or just not listed on amazon

unless you want to get the lamzu thorn which is a little smaller in length and has little bit of a bigger bump and weighs 52g but is available on amazon
ngl 50 for that viper is nice cant it do 8k
$92 for the 4k compatible and $103 for the 4k version
is 8k wireless even a thing yet
pretty sure it can, think it needs a firmware update
yeah but not worth
has been a thing

hmm
actually no, pretty sure it needs a 8k dongle which razer chargers $15 for
razer v2 isnt on their compatible list, so i was wrong again
does it still need dongle if i use it wired for high polling rate
NonWegg Giveaways shall be banned until morale improves
why cannot everyone just be happy
idk i might sleep on it and figure it out but if the v3 is worth it i’ll just spend the extra
I dunno. Why doesn't Radeon act competent, both are beyond our means of understanding
cuz they want money
they can make a card cheap like the rx470 or 580 if they wanted…maybe
AMD if their cards were more reasonably priced and they didn't keep messing up drivers
and nvidia after watching that gn video idk what to say

You'd have to have a palantir to figure out the workings of the minds behind Nvidia and Radeon. Oh wait 
@random osprey concerning the Thorn 4K...
Rdna 4 black friday deal at msrp… totally targeting the mid range with that…
Meanwhile lackwell with supply cuts being under msrp

the cheapest "deal" i've seen on a 9070XT is $580
It's better than what it was a few months ago but still
Oh that’s nice
A black friday deal should be 550 and the 9070 at 500
Now that would be nice
realistically youre not gonna notice such a difference unless you really sit there and do tests like this person in which theyre also wrong cause the superlight has pre-travel, lol
🤔
also its amazon, if you really dont like it, you can just refund it
or just buy the paro through lamzu's site

Hate it when they act like msrp is such a killer deal
i'd like a RAM deal
I'll ram a deal somewhere all right
Ram a deal straight into your bank account
Pay the storage mafia full price
$overpriced $the bare minimum
that 32GB RAM for $65 two months ago looks better now
should i sell my 4x 8gb to get 2x32? 
Xfinity ram?
I have a razer deathadder v2 that I got in 2022.. still holding up strong
Oh, V-Color
Comcast gonna be breathing heavily if they find out

What the hell are they thinking
tsk. tired. thanks
cuz amd is better
come find me

Mmm
buy me gpu pls ty
Anyone know any good monitors? 240+ hz preferably
@upper rain This is hilarious
budget?
is it a good game?
oh i didn't even know what genre it was lplol
I was getting 90-125 fps with my 9060 xt
It will probably kill tarkov
hopefully lol
Hey guys so uh
Oh never mind this is CL40 RAM
Never thought I’d see it in my life
I mean. That is an aftermarket designed card for the same price as a reference card so
it's at least nice
also that card is 579 now
Yeah when you click on it it’s 580
so they haven't updated the graphic on the homepage
wait until bro hears about 5200 CL46
ddr6 going to be like cl100 😭
First word latency: Eventually
Geforce when we feel like it
meanwhile I run Gskill 3600CL14 still lmao
dang thats nice
I overpaid for it so might as well use it
is it the rgb one
the crystal ones?
TridentZ Neo
ah
8 4 gig sticks
I could
1950x be like
just need to swap to one of my X299 motherboards
Why we talkin about DDR6 when people still haven't started using CUDIMMs yet
Tsmc is doing whatever they can to keep sram scaling going
theyre probably worth like 500+ now cause of the shortage
UDIMMs are the normal ones
Prolly price
And I guess amd ass imc
CUDIMMs are the ones that have the signal repeater chip and can go way higher than 7200MT/s
i thought dimm was the regular one
Is it over
most people just say DIMM
because there hasn't been a reason to specify UDIMM
but now with CUDIMM, it matters which one
We love tech names
ah i confused udimm with rdimm
yeah not registered
yeah people use them interchangibly
one of my favorites is, there's a specific group of old people who call their computer tower the "CPU"
kinda along the same lines as old people who call every video game console a "Nintendo"
"Oh yeah devin's on his Nintendo again"
Whatever the hell you kids call it these days
Lowkey someone should def buy me a pc 😝
In some places people call every soda a Coke regardless of brand
If you want something done right, do it yourself
I have no idea how to build one :/
I manage a custom PC business. We sell anywhere from 30 to 100 PCs a month through Newegg and Amazon
But we don't really deal in midrange systems. everything we do is high-end, we're a boutique builder
I've built somewhere in the vicinity of 3000 PCs total
How do you do custom PCs on Newegg/Amazon?
What do you mean
You form a company, either an LLC or incorporated
create listings, sell product, build PCs, ship them, earn money
no like in a technical sense. How do people pick all their parts for you to assemble?
or are they premade
Well they aren't choosing specific individual components
it's a model of something. So as an example, they'll choose they want an RTX 5070 TI
ok so not exactly custom, got it
the dropdown doesn't have options for them to choose which of the 80 models
no, it is custom
^no shade intended, just was curious how you were doing it thru newegg/amazon
but it's also simplified
we're not trying to drive people away by overcomplicating it and saying, here's the 800 current GPU models down to the brand, model, type, whether it's OC or not
in fact there is no PSU selection, it happens automatically based on the GPU selection
5090? you're getting a 1200W, gold or better, native 12V 2x6.
5070Ti? Same thing but 850W
We get fewer customers than some other bigger names but we also never have complaints about PSU or cooling issues. Which are two of the biggest problems people have with pre-built
What would a 5070Ti PC cost you to build assuming MSRP
i wonder if you can run the 5090 on 850w
Cost as in, what do we pay for the components?
If it can handle the transients yeah
lmao
imo should be able to, my friend runs his 3090 ti on one
That's a great question
Like the corsair sf power supplies can take it no problem
which CPU, case, RAM, SSD...
he has it oc’d and everything idk i guess its a good psu
But also I don't sit here and talk about company secrets in a public Discord server
i think he has rmx or hx
and giving out the pricing that we got agreements on with various vendors is probably not what I'm trying to do rn XD
Okay, I just thought you picked only the GPU and the rest of the build was made around that selection
Oh no not at all
There are multiple selections for CPU, RAM, SSD, GPU
the individual listing is for the case style
It'd be fun though, trust us random strangers not to rat plz 
and then PSU and cooling are determined based on how big of a GPU and CPU you decide
have you done any custom water cooled ones
No
yeah i can see why itd be a liability 
We looked into it, we aren't ready to scale that yet. Shipping a custom loop requires the customer to fill it after delivery and we aren't ready for that liability
Even if we include all the instructions and tell the customer 15 times they need to fill it. all it takes is a couple of them who don't listen and turn on their PC with no liquid. Queue the customer trying a chargeback and writing a nasty review
Not worth it
I wouldn't even trust those types of customers with maintaining a water loop anyway
Even if they were to fill it up properly when instructed to do so before turning on the PC for the first time
I mean. All that would happen is it would shut off due to thermal protections, but not before ruining the pump
Can’t trust random people to have basic intelligence
Man would it be so cool to have a fully water cooled build
make the water any color
Instructions unclear I have turned my cpu into water
wat
AMD have recently re-released the Athlon 3000G, six years after it's original launch in 2019. But what's new, and what's it like for gaming in 2025?
0:00 Intro, Specs and Changes
3:13 Can It Game?
3:26 Counter-Strike 2
4:13 Kingdom Come Deliverance 2

7:03 Does a Graphics Card Help?
8:07 Final...
why??
a dual core in this day and age?
I didn’t know than the state of Louisiana had a bunch of French speakers
seems obvious considering its history
tbh
May I remind you this is the same company who sold skyrim for $70 on the switch 1
its a tarkov?
They screen recorded it for the gif

yay
intel's finances is improving
does
d-do-ess this mean
B770 !>?!!??!!?!?!?!?!?!???!!?!?!?
lmao
plus the loan softbank lended to intel
intel is also focusing more on the enterprise side of things, catering to datacenters instead of consumers
ya B60 pro is one example

um
well
this is deppressing
Heyo Northener
lol
https://www.rxddit.com/r/casio/s/bLMSUwuAYK definitely real casio
Which metro
guy got scammed, rip
Actual Casio watches are pretty good though. I have had a few.
i bet it was like 5 bucks on temu or something
so while technically scammed, it's... still probably going to work as a watch?
its not like digital watches cost anything nowadays for ones that work (though maybe not as long lasting and reliable as an actual gshock)
also probably nowhere near as water resistant
all gshocks can handle up to like 200 meters of water?
Anybody else here play arc raiders
i assume that g....shcok would be only able to handle a shower iff even lmao
As a kid i used to think casio g shocks were inexpensive because of how the big ones looked how wrong i was
one of the classic casio watches though are only like 20 bucks usd or smth
What the helly why are they so expensive remember them being like 150 or smth
depends on the model
Weggmen
They are probably the final boss of reselling at this point
oh these are the models with the full metal case
the ones that use a resin case are a fair bit cheaper
also lighter
you can swap out the case and strap easily on these since parts are readily available
Think those increased in price too istg i remember seeing one with solar charging for 130 or smth bucks
there is
huh
i just switched to the US site and it seems like there isn't?
there is on the canadian site
canadian site
also it's even cheaper on amazon canada
sold by amazon themselves
why is the P310 Bad
These kinds of watches are kinda
Oh nicee i think thats the one i remember
Also they had a collab one too i think for 150 abt saving sea creatures or smth
so true
I'll win the UFD tech RTX 5070 Ti + 9800X3D Gaming PC Giveaway trust
Not me explaining Eau Rouge to this girl (she's genuinely interested lmao)
"I like to know these things" GUYS I MIGHT'VE FOUND THE ONE LMAO
if this is priced well
maybe
just maybe
If it's $400-$500 instant pass
what even is that

Sounds like they locked certain features behind a subscription
Famous turn on a famous race track
That's a fat W
from what it appears, the only things locked behind the subscription are the AI tools
pretty much every "basic" tools you find in photoshop is free
the "basic" tools are still far better than stuff like paint
also yeah the point isnt to beat adobe in terms of features
but it has many of the same features photoshop does, enough to have people only use affnity photo, though it may be slightly more difficult for experienced photoshop users to switch to affinity fully
but with it being fully free, unlike photoshop, while having all the features you really need for even professional work.... affinity photo is pretty much the best option now especially with a license cost of a grand total of $0
I assume if they do win they’ll just do what adobe is doing anyways
they main thing is that they're now more of a threat to adobe, which may cause adobe to also lower prices (not really a high chance of that happening) but at least there's better competition now
especially before, when it was paid, so people might not even want to try affinity photo
Those MSI coreliquid A13 240mm AIOs Newegg gives away with like every processor are really not that great
Decent RGB but it is struggling to cool a 7700x pulling 140 watts
I don’t like how canva bought them
Doorbuster Deals are a joke. Refreshed my page right at 11 and shit was gone
I bought the ifixit toolkit
I've bought 8 of the door buster deals
Including the 7700x earlier this month
How
Decent stuff is gone in seconds
Check again now
Wow those did sell our fast today
Davinci resolve but photo
They only had 100 ifixit tool kits at that price
It's been 5 minutes
I literally just clicked it and clicked buy I wasn't even trying that hard
That's crazy
I always get it by logging in at noon est
I hope they do another 9060XT 8GB for $200
Well yeah that's when they go on sale..
I have a friend on a 1650
I'm on a 1660ti
Yeah but I meant I just refresh the page and hit buy
Nothing special
That's what I was talking about
I just built my sister a super budget midrange PC over 2 months using shuffles and door buster deals
$600 budget and got a 7700x and a 9060XT
Her birthday is December 10th
Even got a monitor with it it's pretty nice what Newegg has been doin
Lame
assuming he didnt buy it from a reseller lol
Clickbait, one of the critical tools requires a sub
maybe
Hm.
the amount of scam it is depends on if he bought it from a reseller or off temu or ali or something
i feel like it's more likely to be a temu special though lmao
yeah for $5, a scammer could buy these up then sell them for like $20
there are quite a few knockoffs there for dirt cheap
or even just $10
and sometimes I see these end up on ebay and amazon for stupid prices
though honestly, I would rather use AliExpress than Temu
You can almost trust AliExpress more than Amazon in some cases
i mainly use aliexpress for most things
i use amazon for some more urgent things
or some things that aren't on ali
which
from all i've seen in the paid plan features, nothing is added that is a "critical tool"
there are definitely very useful tools but not critical at all
I might be thinking of a different tool that did this
but I know there was one that went free then restricted some of the editing tools to a sub
Update
Which tool
That is why I did not like them being acquired by canva
I fear they will pull something like this since everything is all in one app now
its hard for me to even Google it for some reason
ah yes a notification about a notification

Announcing new Steam Hardware from Valve: Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and Steam Frame are coming in 2026. Just like Steam Deck, all three devices are optimized for Steam and designed for players to get even more out of their Steam library.
It's specs are interesting. Can't wait to see benchmarks.
6core zen 4 CPU and 28 cu's of RDNA 3
Can read it all here https://store.steampowered.com/sale/steammachine
Holy shit, this is peak
3 announcments
where's the half life 3 announcment i was promised?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bMGQXR
there was a contest for like 5K build i made this
Part List - AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, GeForce RTX 5080, HAVN BF 360 Flow ATX Mid Tower
Wow, was not expecting the VR headset to also be standalone
did someone said Half life 3 before B770 lmao
its also arm
that runs x86 games
somehow...
Not all the Deck-verified games are instantly going to play on the ARM chipset. Yang said verification for the Frame will take time, as individual games are optimized for the new chipset. Valve uses an algorithm that factors in customer interest from wish lists and purchases to decide which games to prioritize, though the process for selecting titles to optimize for the Frame is still being refined.
I believe they said they were aiming to have it cost less than the Index
That being said, the full index kit was $1000
The headset only was $500

Steam machine has 28
RDNA 3 CUs...might be slower than XBSX and PS5
Pretty rough considering it's realeasing way later
Maybe they're going to target a really low price but idk
the steam frame seems really cool in some ways
is that confirmed? $500 for the Steam Frame?
No, $500 was the Index headset only, no base stations or controllers
But since Frame comes with controllers and standalone tracking they were probably referring to the $1000 Index price when they said Frame would be less than Index
thats good to hear
I would be really interested in it, if it had OLED. Finding out its another LCD headset, and not even a particularly great looking one is pretty disappointing
hey at least its competition for meta.... if its not expensive
pls dont be expensive
I hope Steam Machine is cheaper than the Series X
at least for the 512GB variant
lmao
Nintendo sue inc
I have hope
just realllyyyy wish it was OLED. I don't think I can talk myself into buying an LCD headset again
I'd rather take having the built-in hardware the Steam Frame has rather than getting OLED displays that will drive the price above $1000
At least we got Pancake lenses
If you had a choice Oled or pancake
Which would you choose
OH CRAP
give me pancake lenses
it was either OLED or beefy hardware
I had a weird dream involving a CPU with both ARM and x86 cores
it would be DOA at that price
its either one or the other
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternate_Instruction_Set
until it isnt
The Alternate Instruction Set (AIS) is a unique secondary instruction set architecture found in the VIA C3 series of x86-32 CPUs made by VIA Technologies. The hidden processor mode is accessed by executing the x86 instruction JMPAI (0F 3F). If AIS mode has been enabled, the processor will perform a JMP EAX and begin executing AIS instructions ...
This was undoubtedly the source of the dream
ah
Mmm physx msc degree so interesting

Steam Machine video SOON!
Valve has announced the Steam Frame, Steam Mac...
Might be about the same
I'm doubtful
I've heard 7600 perf
hm....not bad
But also 7600 is 32CUs vs steam machine at 28
It was 7600m
I guess windows has overhead that steam is doesnt
So it will be a little slower than a 6700
Pretty sure 6700 is faster
Nope
TPU chart has 6700 a bit above 7600
They are basically the same performance
Depending on what you test one performs better than the other by a couple percent
*meant tomshardware
TPU has 7600 5% above 6700
So yeah I guess they're pretty similar
@inner jetty How do you ship your sff builds
Like how do you pack it, if you even can
Do you just fold a piece of foam below the graphics card

I just made a modern build
With somehow no USB c ports
No front panel and the motherboard somehow doesn't have any
That's like borderline impressive
Oh wow this motherboard has a serial connector
I haven't built one with a jcom1 header in a while
Will look at upgrading my HTPC instead of getting the steam machine I think.
3700x+6700xt+32gb ram. Could upgrade to a 5800x I have not being used. And then look at getting a 9070 or something. Maybe a cheap 7900 model
It's already better than the steam machine lol
Well the CPU might not be, I think steam machine is 6 core zen 5
wow
running Metro Exodus Enhanced with my B580
it runs on Ultra 1440p like a charm
with raytracing and hairworks on
Oh those are easy to pack! Instant pack or foam based on the case or what I can fit.
They are actually more stable platforms based on the case for the GPU
Steam machine aka the Gabecube
will watch that later
How do you build and sell so many pcs is my question
I really want to get into that business with my cousin
Someone on Reddit called it the Aperture Science Enrichment Cube
hmmmm
Like how did you start out
with these specs is it aiming for a $700 price tag max?
even then its a bit high imo
Depends on gpu strength
That’s a great amount of storage
I CU P
RX 7600 has 32 CU
Yikes
so that means this one is like a RX 7550
Its gonna be kinda like a 4060
But frequency?
still decent i guess

certainly good for consoles though
Ps5 minus
How many gb
The ps5-
6?
7400 or steam machine?
7400

wait a minute it actually does check out
you got a point there
same compute units, same vram
bro this steam box gotta be like $500-600
Ah ok I never used it before and thought the material is thick prior to expanding. Can it fit in between 25mm fans and a 2 slot 6700 xt in the nr200
What even is the nvidia equivalent of this

5050

This gotta be fake there's no way
They did say it was semi-custom
They shoulda done a custom rdna 4 gpu
I'd wish, it's not even RDNA 3.5
Too expensive probably
They should’ve worked with nvidia to make the drivers better on linux 
what i do know is that the steam machine will be faster due to higher tdp
The RX 7400 has a crazy low tdp cap so that means the steam machine will clock higher
So realistically we might be looking at an RX 7400xt or something
wait, WTF??? (rx 7400)
its actually that close?!?!?!?
Nah thats like a 200+ increase
bruh
Assuming sustained is the game clock
probably slower
everybody gonna get the Steamcube
How it gonna be slower when it is using 110w
There’s no way they’re just feeding a 7400 over 2x the power
There’s gotta be something else going on
It's probably more like a 7600m
28CUs and 90W TDP
Would make sense that the steam machine has a bit more TDP (and likely a decent perf bump) since the 7600m is constrained by laptop cooling
boost clocks of the 7600m is crazy close too
Yeah that’s what whoever it was saying it said
Like 4060 or 7600m
Yeah overclocked 7600m makes total sense
So even if it's a 7600m with better cooling and slightly higher clocks and less overhead on steamOS vs windows, at best it's going to be equal with series X. Probably a little slower
The CPU is significantly better though and the ram/vram are seperate
Yeah that cpu will last
I feel like the gpu is already underpowered in comparison though
Mobile rdna 4 would have been amazing
new steam hardware in 2026 but im looking at that Steam Frame 
Seeing this in texas is really cool
Where in Texas?
I wanna know if I'll get to see them
East texas
Oh that's not far
I live an hour away from houston
It's not going to be as far south today as yesterday
Dang
It was still crazy insane that I got to see that I thought the world was ending
Didn't know it could come down so far
Was pretty cool to see though
Ping me if it happens again tn
Random pink hue in the sky
Add me cause I'll forget
I would've seen it
Sent
So the zen 4 cpu is an overclocked R5 7400f?
anybody know anybody who wants a b580?
Turn your lights off ,light pollution really effects it
totally not self advertising the b580 i'm about to sell
Oof
Drive out of the city if you can
My friends in a small town couldn't even see it
We had to turn off the chicken coop light just to see it
But the chance of seeing it tonight is much lower in general
Sadge
One day
Pretty much. Extra 0.1ghz boost clock
Must be nice seeing the northern lights
As a Texan I don't know what that's like
the heck is an RX 7400
seems like it'd suck, i have a 6400 and it's kind of atrocious
some OEM card from AMD but this one is a mistake the steam machine is an equivalent to RX 7600m with higher power target
ahhhh i see
yea
6400 was a cut down MX tier laptop die that was reshuffled into desktop to meet demand during the 2020 GPU shortages. 7400 is still cut down, but cut down from a proper GPU die (Navi 33)
it's like a 10% cut down 7600 with lower PL (and therefore clocks)
that should push it pretty close to 4060m or a bit above I'd think
Well if I can get Linux on my laptop I'll be able to directly compare to the Steam Machine
if you got the time i'd look forward to some interesting results
I'll need to compare against results from someone with a Steam machine, but 4060M I have
guess we'll wait till it hits shelves
Yeah. I'm not going to buy it because no point when I have my desktop and laptop
^ agreed
assuming no driver problems, the laptop should make a good Steam machine anyways
I put 48 GB of RAM in it, and 2.5 TB NVMe space
given the 6900 XT, there's no point trying to compare my desktop to the Steam machine lol
28 CU vs 80...
The steam controller and the headset are more interesting
im interested in the vr headset. dont want to get a meta headset since my hp headset gonna be a brick at some point
common HP L
well its not hp, its microsoft
normal MS L
Microsoft is a terrible company
they stopped supporting their vr software which basically everyone except meta and steam uses so basically every non steam and meta vr headset will become a brick
I'm worried about the price ,I just know this think will cost a kidney stone
its this novemember or next november when it officially shuts down
imma guess around the $500-$650 mark since it looks like it doesnt require those boxes like the index does
gonna assume its gonna be more in line to compete against the meta quest
hopefully better specs than the quest
I will throw my entire bank account at it if that's the case
just to not be dependent on a Meta product
cause the quest would also cost roughly the same but meta sells it at a loss since they make back the money from your data through facebook
data munching
Fr I have a quest 3 right now and it sucks to know that standalone is being lead by meta
I only use my Quest 3 to play free games
Questing for free games
whelp, saw some more info on the new steam frame, got onboard memory and idk if i heard it right, but also a sd slot for more storage and the headset is wireless. think the price is gonna more towards $700-$800 
would still pay that though over meta
Prolly yeah but for that I’d maybe use a slimmer foam.
yo did ur 14900k come in yet
nah not yet but its shipped
nice
with the proceedings of mine i was able to get a 13900k and a 5600x, wish me luck
thats sick best of luck lol
And the 13900k is still under warranty so i might be able to sell a brand new one...
Thx
I have a bit of hope that this defective 14900k might just work somehow
