Only one core enabled with max boost to 700mhz
No LCD backlight, gotta get a bright light and look at special angles to see the screen
But yeah, def sounds like local playback with mpv player or smth with unbloated OS for such long claims
I hate numpads so
Perfect for me ngl
I’ll ask my dad about it when I get a chance to
i would die without a numpad
But I’m in bed sick rn so
it's so useful for punching in numbers
When I need numbers, I need numpad
i use the number row basically only for passwords
if i have to punch in more than like 3 numbers though, i start hating the number row
Then again
I am a controller player in a m&k environment.
So I don’t use many keys regardless
i only use controller on like hack and slash games because it says i should
My 2C is getting beat to hell and back by how much I use it
though i suck at controller for that as well
I was an Xbox player up until a few years ago
I still have my 360, one, and series X
Just in case
i went straight from like no joystick game controller to kb&m
I was too poor
so i struggle with aiming at shit with a joystick
though actually
i did use a pointing stick for a few years
but technically that's not a joystick
i do kinda miss using a pointing stick
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointing_stick (if you don't know)
A pointing stick (or trackpoint, also referred to generically as a nub, clit mouse, or nipple mouse) is a small analog stick used as a pointing device typically mounted centrally in a computer keyboard. Like other pointing devices such as mice, touchpads or trackballs, operating system software translates manipulation of the device into movement...
I find myself more at home on controller
Even on my heavily modded TTW, I still use controller
Meaning I can use most of the keybinds, except for throwing grenades
OpenGL
Gross
It will stay on it for a while though
thank god we are switching to vulkan
i used to use this more than the trackpad
until i switched to a laptop without it
There will be both for a while
i swear i've only seen Lenovo Thinkpads have these
i had a hp that had it as well
it was a elitebook or something
some shool laptop
when raster resolution is lower than display resolution, the transparencies will seem to be very dithered
happens to hair all the time
and foliage
The touchpad largely replaced them, they were more of a 90s and 2000s thing. Lenovo was the last to phase them out in 2021
No more OpenGL
Dang
Oooooh
polls are up for today!
I'm actually very curious about what you're thoughts on this
I typically ask polls I genuinely want to know
I only ask polls I don't want to know so that I can immediately disregard everyone else's opinion 
my grandfathers mac mini was running out of ram with 16gb lmao
but macos does EAT ram up
@velvet summit ok so i specced out a macbook with similar specs (way worse cpu/igpu/display/features/functionality/peripherals 😭 ) and its 2200, do you think thats enough to convince my dad to let me get the msi one
Incoming performance improvement
macos is a bit different. if there is enough available ram to keep an app ready to launch it will use it

possibly
depends on how deep in the apple ecosystem they are lmao
uh
yes.
(he thinks apple has the best performing specs on the entire market and gets confused with cpu/gpu/neural engine cores)
REALLY?????
HOLY MOLY
That's craaaaazy
yup
it was like 10gb idle
and when he had chrome up hed get "out of memory" issues
he also somehow used up 256gb of storage even tho he barely uses it
i had to free up like 100gb for him
OH i can tell him about OS dependencies for the apps i needa use eventually
you sure he don't got a virus or something?
yeah i checked everything
and my dad remoted in and also checked everything
The only time I've ever gotten memory warning on a 16gb mac was with very heavy animation project files
Does he just have alot of apps
maybe
though i have a strict policy of keeping at least 100gb free on os storage drives at all times
but everything was closed
he had like 3gb free when i first saw it
there was a solid 70gb in "system" smth smth
from most cases i've seen, both windows and mac but especially mac's start to fall apart very quickly when you have no storage available
i forget what off the top of my head
yup sounds about right
Win11 requires 4gb minimum, you guys gonna trust Google Chrome to run on 4gb? 
yeah his was like 70 or 80gb in that
to be fair, last I checked like 60-80gb of that system data is just caching for adobe after effects lmao
i cleared some caches to get it down to 20gb but after i uploaded all his photos to the cloud and removed most of his downloads it went right back up
😭
yeah but hopefully i can get another device out of the apple ecosystem
completely terrible devices all around
the best thing and what I do with basically all my systems now is only store apps, os, and app configs on the main ssd. keeping all the documents, project files and sometimes caching files on external drives. much easier to manage the storage that way
my grandfather doesnt know how to google things
i dont think thats realistic for him to do
"why did I lose internet access"
The power: 💀
yeah for someone older it's often just easier to get them a 1-4tb storage drive and call it a day xD
"my youtube isnt working (yesterday)"
"yeah youtube is down"
"no but i need to change my password to use it"
"no opa youtube is down, you can't use it"
"no but i need to change my password, tell me how to do it"
He's gonna unlock youtube for everyone trust
but there are some techniques that you can use. like I think I remember seeing with desktop macs people will put a permanent external ssd and link it as the home folder so without even thinking about it all your documents, photos, video etc folders are actually going on the external drive
Trust the process frfr
I was going to try this for my mom since she just has a crazy amount of files for work and isn't the greatest at keeping up with multiple drives
He just needs to change the password
that was an actual convo btw
its possible to lose power without losing internet, but ofc you need battery powered equipment. For most people, this would be a smartphone.
i was on my laptop in that instance
also that was my quote lmao
i was quoting myself
i have a wacky network setup so i thought that had an issue, and then i attempted to log into the router webui
and found that it was offline
i looked at my laptop battery status, it did not have the plugged in icon
gamers

I deleted their messsages but sent a DM to that person
Reasonable
probably has a niche use with scams if I had to guess
Scams are like the non niche use lol
They're in theory useful for proving ownership and authenticity but afaik haven't seen a lot of real world application
Ah I finally have a use for my ducky keyboard, got promoted to do fleet management and now I get to do office work, can’t wait till bust out my keeb just to type smoother
I could forsee them being used to prove authenticity of images/photos due to AI and deepfakes advancing
if you design curriculums/corrdinate a school's teachers and you make stuff like this, i would like nothing more than to punch you.
these are the expected times
so that's a good 8 hrs of my life(+4 for classes) that i will never get back
67
AND i have to go to church today
looked for so long to find where it said that
soda floats are best if you like
actually use ice cream
so much cream soda doesnt even actually use cream either
i know of one brand that does lmao
(lotte)
I mean, cream soda can be good as its own thing. I just don't treat it like a soda that it trying to be an ice cream float without ice cream
Vernor's hybrid of ginger ale and cream soda is terrible though. It isn't good as ginger ale and it isn't good as a cream soda
Hm
the background almost looks like the background in never gonna give you up
congrats on the promotion!!!!
what am i looking at. i feel like it's so disorganized
homework that is due
around 8 hrs of my life that's currently being used on things i almost unilaterally do not want to do
is that online school?
yes
College isn't like that
College is just do whatever you want, lmao bozo you're the one paying us
i hope hes not taking algebra 2 in college...
oof. D:
lots of people take algebra in college
actually?
usually hw is 4 hours
those people are making a lot more money than me currently
huh
i took calculus in HS for reference
i did algebra 2 in like 9th grade
I mean, I think it is HS looking at the lineup
a lot of people focus on other skills that also have meaning/value for the future
i wish i could fit everything in my life
in my school thats uh
substances 😭
Mostly because of the numbering of the courses tbh
College courses have a more robust numbering scheme than 1, 2 or 3
Colleges do have Trig courses though
looks like a lot of gen eds
do u know what ur major's going to be?
Trades?
Yeah
i think that can be a really smart move in this day and age
Good. Trades haven't been subject to enshittification yet
I was I had gone to a trade school instead of wasting my time on college
And wasting my money
what did you major in
I changed my career path so started back up again was hard but worth it
I originally did Bioengineering, went to comp sci at a CC after moving, gave up because of bad teachers, got out with $10k in loans and nothing to tie myself to the local job market
what a path
im hopefully gonna be doing comp eng at either WPI or UV/UD/UB
oooo that's cool
Well, actually it was biomedical engineering not bioengineering
my hope is UV since its a top 50 school
UR
not uv what am i saying
:3
hmm i really want a 1500 on the SAT i wonder if i can get it
that way i should get a scholarship to some places
u can do it! I did improve my SAT scores after working at it for a summer session. but it took dedicated studying
it was really hard
T_T
oh dang
im tutoring my friends so thats helping me
one of them is at a 1400 level one of them is at a 1200-1300 level rn
Do you know why
It’s because of the plastics used
Apparently, the primary source for the chemicals is the "formulation of the plastics from which they are made". The dangerous substances are said to include bisphenols, phthalates and poly- and per-fluoroalkyl.
The study claims that Bisphenol A (BPA), for instance, appeared in 98% of samples, while its substitute substance, bisphenol S (BPS), was found in more than three-quarters. These chemicals are apparently used to stiffen plastic and "mimic the action of oestrogen inside organisms, causing a range of adverse effects including the feminisation of males, early onset puberty in girls, and cancer."
The study doesn't make clear exactly how much exposure to such devices is assumed to be required to reach toxic levels. But it concludes, “given the prolonged skin contact associated with headphone use, dermal exposure represents a relevant pathway, and it is reasonable to assume that similar migration of BPA and its substitutes may occur from headphone components directly to the user’s skin.”
At this point, then, the implication is that the chemicals are present according to one study; that's as far as the research has gone. Moreover, the study did emphasise that many chemicals were only found in "trace" quantities, and thus not likely to cause harm.
However, ToxFree LIFE for All says that, "highest concentrations of harmful substances were found in the hard plastic parts of the headphones.
yeah guess what part of the headphone doesn't touch my skin
Everything causes cancer including cancer frfrfrfrfr

eventually
That last one 


I mean the plastic in many headphones doesn’t even touch the skin
But good thing my main headphones are mostly just metal and wood
Consume plastics, poop plastics 🤷🏻♂️
@dusk knot
Sennheiser 660S does not have plastic that touches the skin regularly
4 MONTH DELAYYYYY
also fear mongering articles are cringe
its fine. theres enough content to play over and over again

I wonder what their test devices were. Was their a difference in harmful material count in higher end major brands vs cheap knockoffs?
AI AI AI AI
Hey they don’t do ai
Yet
Bungie has a stance on that
I wonder if ai would help them make better decisions
Probably at this point
Hey they also fix that when it happens
They also punish the people who do it
good good, that's good on them
AI could convince them to toaster bath, so take that for an answer
I will say this
Destiny 2 has the BEST gunplay out of ANY game I've every played.
Dump the whole hq in there thanks
Correct
NOTHING beat D2 gunplay.
Normie take, rest of the game still mid as hell with shit leadership
Sony****
Them being bought by Sony was the WORST decision ever
screw them for how they treat Linux users though
they do have a ton of other problems
but gunplay feels really nice
Wardcliff Coil. I still remember the first time i fired that thing
Queensbreaker?
I don't play the guns, sorry, I only listen to them
the auto aim assist was fun
Nah, them being independent is worse. Look at the shit they made after leaving activision
Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo... all terrible companies at the end of the day
Every company bad except the ones I like 

Could’ve been bought by me
whom

imagine a Roomba game console
Newman's Own 
They would’ve been fine independent if they didn’t have garbage leadership at the time
They would've been fine independent if they weren't like they were when they were independent

This is very true. The only things that's been close for me was titanfall 2. Apex seems like it would probably be second place of the active popular games.
Sorry it’s just that people who complain about the game but keep playing it say it, it’s the addiction take
WHAT
best overall combat i could see but just gunplay is eeeehhh
Addicted*
Correct
Or the most biased
REALLY?
I have been critical and praised the game both
what games have good gunplay? @worn wave
like purely shooting an AR/pistol in D2 is just alright imo
the special weapons and abilities n stuff are very nice though
half-life 2
D2 was basically masterpiece for gameplay. The story telling was fairly terrible though and it's all buried in lorebooks no one reads.
Nothing beats d2 in terms of weapon feel

You don’t wanna watch that?
my votes would be Titanfall2/Apex, COD MW2019, potentially counter strike (not everyone's cup of tea but highly polished and competitive)
i don't doubt u that it was the best gunplay when it released. but it's just dated now
Imagine if they made the previous expansions optionally downloadable instead of being locked in a vault and behind lore readings
I have. Probably an older version.
It's been a long time since I heard of Byf. That's craaaaaaaazy
good guy
I watched that a while ago
I feel like Counter Strike might be a good contender b/c of how "clean" the first 2 shots feel on most guns
I rember the days when people were posting covers of songs using the gunshot sounds in BF3
The new player experience is also horrible now and it wasn't even good before they removed red war.
No
i remember songs w/ the M1 grand
It’s much better now
Nobody does
the "Ping"
They have put a lot of effort in
If I have to read up on lore to understand what is going on currently then they basically failed
2.8m people did
You don’t have to
There’s a timeline in game
How many of them actually watched it through
With missions
Halo games (except 5 + Infinite) I never had to read up on lore to understand anything going on
It's just you play each consecutively and you know everything
Now that D2 took away the old campaigns it's just lore now. And I don't want to read a whole bunch of lore
A lot of the good content has been seasonal too and they prune it into the vault regularly.
No longer being done
Is that retroactive?
Lore entries are good when it adds to the experience and builds on what you play in game. It being mandatory reading to learn the story is bad implementation
No, but from last expansion onwards, no more vaulting
Still can't play content I paid for 💀
Real
Nobody said TES had good lore integration. Luckily most of the lore can be ignored because TES is so shallow in gameplay and writting that it just doesn't matter 
I don't know about you but I spent a lot of time in the ministry of truth library.
this book is so peak
its one of the better books ive read
makes me wanna go work out 😭
once im done being sick and all better im gonna start working out
good for u
you really be reading everything i've read ong
i'm actually currently rereading it lmao
😭
i just read the 66666 years later dark mage book
was good too
I used to read that too!
Facebook marketplace be like
"get your broke ass outta here" frfr
hes asking for 550 or saying he wants 550?
This is insanity
He is willing to PAY me 550

isnt that good
It’s $100 over msrp
But would leave me without a gpu
Yeah 16gb models start at like $450 new
do it and then get a 5070 off fb market
also why would you list it if its your only gpu
Trade for two GPU’s
Upgrading wife’s in the process
Or a microcenter since they still have msrp 5070s somehow
Wife will not let me sell without a gpu being given to me right then
Just tell her you can get two 2080 ti's with 550 dollars
Or 2080 supers
Theyre both at 200-250 easily
She does not care

this guy is hours away
See posts, photos and more on Facebook.
Bro I wish i lived close enough to that
Terrible
Pay me enough and I’ll go get it for you 
announcement for tomorrow is up!
Automatically convert times and dates to the Discord timestamp format to display times in everyone's local timezone.
o man
it really helps
alright
i've added it
that really helps, since i turned off location settings i used to have to manually find out the time
very convenient
hm
hm, ps plus premium for $100
Looks like I'll have to start pinging for every announcement
I had 600 dollars at one point and tried to buy three different 5070s on my area of fb, no one responded screw those people
so instead started up my pc building business
Forced positivity, down with the government🗿
this worth it?
you know what that means
facebook marketplace is ass for buying anything, they either dont respond or try to low/highball you
I know what I've got
They changed it back to overwatch
Not going back
why is youbeesoft asking me for age verification what is this meme

more like why are you supporting them

i havent given them money since r6 siege 
People have friends on the Ubisoft launcher?
Actually, scratch that, people interact with other people on the Ubisoft launcher?
inquired about an experiment I want to do in an Arduino server. They deemed it potentially too dangerous for the server's rules though. Basically I want to use uranium ore as an entropy source for RNG.
Not a huge amount of said ore, mind you.
Doesn’t ubishit mostly make single player games?
Ye
Anno has MP though
Honestly don't know any other games they put out with MP
The Crew?
TC The Division is MP
Rainbow Six Siege
Uh
there really was no point in re-releasing the game as OW2 then
should be overwhelmingly negative tbh
still mad about the PvE
When you classify as underweight
When your method of weight loss induces negative symptoms
When you die 
Damn messing with combobuilder is quite awesome
uhh
i lost 2 pounds in 2 days
😭
maybe i should dial things back a bit
That's just water then.
i should have already lost my water weight
There's a server with a channel that has a 6 hour slow mode. It also has a special role for anyone that manages to post 4 times within 24 hours. I am attempting to do that lol.
Same
Is this your new favorite gif?
I’ll leave the poop joke out ig
yeah it would be a crappy joke

Water we talking about tonight guys
that last statement...
This is an anomaly from EA
Because it's not EA
they don't have sole rights to star wars games anymore
i finally beat max payne and i really dont want to play it again
What’s your thought on the game?
idk don't know much about it
You haven’t watched the trailer?
ah okay thanks for the clarification!
hopper build
bro what is this

last thing i need is turning into a bot
wild
i dont wanna know

lol
do i wanna replay cp2077
now that it's well.. not glitchy anymore
the last time i played it was.. horrible
mostly because of the ui glitches and the hardware i forced the game to run on
I played it so much that even tho i can play it with path tracing now I still can’t muster up the energy to play it again
Awesome game
worthy enough of buying again on Steam tho?
just do it

Any help is welcome truely

Haven’t decided yet, kind of interested in that new logitech hall effect mouse but its kind of expensive

oh don't get logitech mice tbh lmao
they suck
and have a miriad of issues
anything but them
The idea behind that mouse seems to be to reduce the amt travel needed to register a click which may give a person a slight advantage in reaction time
And I might need that advantage… 
what are you using rn
A wired razer mouse
Hate to break it to you but the hall effect mouse ain't gonna speed you up by 300+ms 💀
Well all logitech are shit lmao
but i guess
All superlights are really bad
i don't trust logitech with my mice anymore
look at this list of issues on G pro Xs
GPX1
GPX2
GPX2SE
GPX2 Dex
GPX2C
GPW
GPW2
All suffer from these issues
Coating falls off
Yellows FAST
Different batches have had different variations in switch weights
Overpriced like crazy
More QC issues including scroll wheel issues
Uses optomech, has seen massive issues with double clicking development on major release batches and even recent batches
Bad stock skates
Performance wise fine, but outdated sensor type with polling instabilities sometimes
Batch 1 performs poorly at polling rates under 1000, detrimentally impacts click latency, tracking and polling consistency.
Side buttons are mushy.
R-L switches are mid
Broken m3 switch that skips and jumps
with this many issues i seriosly don't trust logitech
THEY know the issue
YET they refuse to fix it
thats why i don't trust logitech anymore
Yeah in theory a hall effect switch should rule out any of those switch related issues
M3 switches still broken (scroll whell)
You still have
Coating issues
Diffrent qc and weight issues
HORRIABLE skates
Bad side buttons
bad scroll whell
its the ignorace of set issues thats the issue i have
Yeah that's fair I suppose
Reviewers seem to love the x2 but durability will need a while longer
The point is these issues have been here since the G pro wireless (2018)
to 2026
well
2025
oh gotcha
thats why i hate logitech
their mice dont last very long with heavy use in my experience
because they do have issues
since 2018
same issues
since 2018
5o
2026
2025
8 years
cause the superstrike is only 2 weeks old
Condense your messages lmao
na
nuclear fusion your messages

THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN HERE SINCE G PRO WIRELESS IN 2018 WHICH IS 8 years OLD Some of these mice are 2 year old logitech is dumb
This reads like some r/mousereview bs ngl
i have no issues with the skates of my g304 tbh
but it certainly has been double clicking
Either way buy EGG mice they’re nicer
Only 502 is ❤️ helps build muscle.. not memory tho xD literal one
A year of that 502.. then switch into 40-65g.. then you feel like your not holding anything at all ..
Do you guys jusr buy a new mouse when it starts double clicking?
I had my g502 for like
3 years
Then I went for a light mouse
A lot better
It's easy to replace it tho.. 😢 the only problem i hate happened when the rubber grips starts to melt xD or turn into paste overtime .. due to acidity
Mine never did. I had to switch once mine decided to die
Logitech is cheap
Yeah i just buy bulk x10 switches
Imagine fixing a mouse
This ones
I convert my pcb into hot swapable one so i dont need to solder it
Just snap it like lego
They look like this
so bloody is a bad word now
youtube censorship is getting out of hand
they allow barely clothed women dating site ads and gooner games but you cant say die
Mr man didn't give any context behind that picture though
The context was a short of a grandma trying to blind taste and find which sauce was made by her (the other 2 options was her grandchild? And can)
Aware

I will look into that when my current mouse decides to kick the bucket
mice have tiny feet, how do they kick buckets
+hahahahahha
Why is my pc wanting to boot into my dvd player
@sour falcon oi nerd
Do you got a thumb drive I can use to update my bios
Perchance
Drop it off at my apartment ty
Will drop it back off next week

I do infact not know where you live brother
I know your general area
I cant even see this gif bro
squint your eyes
its made of like 50 pixels

🤨
When will @sour falcon drop it off? The world may never know
If he was my neighbour, I’d have stolen his pc by now
I've seen these being scalped. What's the hype about?
They’re getting scalped? 
They’re available for back order rn that ik
Based on a single Reddit post I've seen, yeah they're getting lightly scalped. You can buy them for normal price, but some people are selling them for $300-$400
But basically the idea of the mouse is that u can adjust the amt of travel needed to register a click which should in turn “improve” ur reaction time
Effing idiots
So it's basically similar to a magnetic keyboard switch?
Yeah i think so
That's sick
And as for the feedback click feeling it uses haptic motors for that apparently
Like phones and the macbook trackpads
I mean it used hall effect so there isnt a physical switch
I still have yet to try hall effect 😭
I'm in poor mode rn (no job changes. Just saving rn lol)
If i just got the 5070ti back in December i could have ordered one rn 
I also want a new controller cuz some sick third person games are coming out in march
I'm never getting a 5000 series. I got a 9070 XT and it's been great with no issues lol (I still want a 5080)
Get one for Forza
Oh yeah the 50 series are kind of chopped
They better put my Mk7.5 GTI in Forza 😠
There’s like very specific issues such as even more pronounced vrr flickers on oleds
bruh
I just want a 16GB GPU that supports PyTorch just to play with locally hosted AI (the good AI)
How would that make vrr flicker worse? Is it just less consistent frame times?
I actually dont know but i saw significantly more flicker on my oled in game menus with my 5080 with g sync on compared to my 4070super
Pretty chopped generation makes u wish they wouldn’t discontinue last gen products
Surely that's just a driver issue, right?
5060ti could have been a good option for that when they were going for 400
This first year of drivers hasn't gone well for them either.
It could be according to some reddit “experts”
I'll probably just get a couple 4060 16GB GPUs when I have the financial means for it
Just buy another GPU so you can save more
This year of drivers never goes well for me either, so many of them don't understand that if someone is slowing down for a turn you don't try and ram their car 
And nvidia does release drivers to fix issues with specific monitors
So it could be a driver issue
But its crazy thats it affecting a whole generation
Potentially a micro controller incompatibility issue? (I bet a lot of monitors use the same chips, which is why some monitors might have the issue while others wouldn't)
Or maybe smth specific to display port version issues?
Cuz i believe 50 series uses dp2.1
While the 40 series used 1.4a
That could actually very potentially be the issue
Can’t test it unfortunately cuz only the mega premium oleds have dp2.1 rn
Radeon has been using dp2.1 for two generations.
Even a lot of the 500hz 1440p ones still use 1.4
I did have a radeon card briefly but never used their freesync on an oled
I remember having issues with DP on my RX 480 at the time. The screen would sometimes just turn off lol (and yes this is after all of the driver BS from when the first released, when they'd eat up too much power from the motherboard and eventually kill it lol)
I ended up switching to HDMI at the time and had no issues after that
If you can get the same refresh rate with HDMI, use that instead. HDMI sometimes outweighs DP in reliability (at least in my experience)
Yeah currently using hdmi 2.1
Doesnt get vrr tho i think

Yeah but not g sync specifically
Hmmmm
Wanna trade GPUs?
You'd get my 9070 XT (5070 Ti performance, just what you'd like lmao)
I alr have a 4070super sitting around motor 
lmaooo
Oh
Give me your 4070 Super and I'll give you one of my 6800 XTs lollll
I need the VRAM for AI
can ur 9070xt do this
(Asus TUF 6800 XT in case you're genuinely interested, although I'm mostly joking lolll)
I would trade my 4070super for a 9070 non xt ngl to make a bazzite build
Probably could do that tbh
Still amd made great cards this generation
Unlike ngreedia…
Ngreedia cards did technically provide better price to performance compared to last gen tho albeit for the short span of 2 months last year
I'd say they started making REALLY good cards since RDNA 2. My 6800 XT outperforms my 4070 Super in Cyberpunk 2077 (I think? One sec lmao imma find my benchmarks)
Cybeprunk rasterized seems to prefer amd cards for some reason
They might have tuned in on the drivers because its a popular game to benchmark
Two completely different systems. But I mean the 7900X heavily outweighs the 13400 usually(?), not to mention that the 13400 was on DDR4 at the time
there's this screen space reflections setting in cyberpunk that really chops fps significantly lol
Weird numbers tbh. Maybe the CPU was the problem lol (further proof that I should just switch back to my 13700K lollll)
PS5 does have VRR
knew it
Super weird to me though, because the 13400 usually bottlenecks on BF6, while my 7900X doesn't bottleneck
same a 4k 120 hz tv would be nice i could have an excuse to make a build with my 4070super to play games on it
I’m still on 1080p in terms of TVs
I’d like a good one but everyone says “Go OLED” but I can’t afford OLED
...pulling numbers out of my ass but pcie 5 and a better cpu could prolly give me 5-10% more performance on my 5080

and i could slap back my 4070 super in my current system
and that is what i could have done if not for...
My old TV's PSU killed itself (it was a basic, probably VA or IPS panel, 60 Hz, 4K screen), so I upgraded to a 4K mini LED TV. Best screen upgrade ever
How much was it
But think about it. It's only 5-10% more performance lol
Pcie5 wouldn’t change anything
Like $500. Huge upgrade though. I've also convinced my father to change his mind from the basic IPS panel he was going to get as an "upgrade" from the TV we already had (it was Christmas. You know the drill), to a QLED panel. I don't think he cares or even notices the difference, but it was also a significant visual upgrade from what we previously had (in my eyes)
I think this TV was maybe like $600-$800 (forgot the exact price). Mainly more expensive because of the size of the screen (85")
The cpu might but you’re at high res
yeah prolly compared benchmarks (ultrawide) with one on youtube but the dude had a 9800x3d with pcie 5 mobo identical performance
and he had an oc version gpu too
It’s not worth it
ik... just wondering what i should do with my 4070super
maybe i should get this and slap on a 1tb drive alongside the 4070super 
That’s pretty cool. 85” too? That has to be really big
I recommend going mini LED though if you can afford it. Much deeper blacks. All around the best screen if you're worried about OLED burn-in (or can't afford OLED) but want something nicer than QLED
Mini led has dimming problems tho
It's not that bad
I didn’t know what tf dimming was till i used my macbook after ages and I immediately noticed it
I can probably afford it if I don’t get the big size like you did
My mini LED is 55"
I thought it was 85”
yes but can your pc play mario
ya hate to hear it
Oh okay
I remember last year trying to get my dad a new 65” TV because the old one’s panel was going out and it was generally too dark in nighttime scenes to spot details
We went to Best Buy with a given budget of $500 (I think), recommended a good TV (think it was a Hisense that was rated good on Rtings)
Best Buy rep swoops in, convinces him to splurge on a QLED Samsung TV for more than his budget, convinces him not to get OLED even though he could probably fit one in what he paid for that TV
The TV’s fine but I was just appalled lmao
-# tbf you are playing on pc
Game is very empty
So not hard to render very little amounts of things at higher resolution
Is the game fun btw
Oh
If they weren't planning an Infamous rerelease then tbh nothing of value was lost
Lol

A once popular IP from PlayStation
No
Damn
What the hell man
i wonder if microcenter will give u both crimson desert and re requiem with this prebuilt

Sucker Punch games from the PS3 era (except one PS4 game), you played a guy with electricity based superpowers and followed a storyline doing combat and platforming in an open world and either did evil stuff or good stuff
Not even shocked tbh, Sony always shutting down studios as usual
i- missed supernatural gta...
They also did a spoopy Halloween DLC/game where you become a vampire with a new storyline
Maybe bluepoint didn't make enough money/developed enough games because tbh I haven't heard news about them till now.
They haven't done anything in 6 years
a whole new storyline? in a dlc? in this economy?
what the hell
🗿
did i miss peak?
Bruh, almost skipping a generation
Infamous: Festival of Blood is a 2011 action-adventure video game developed by Sucker Punch Productions and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 3. Festival of Blood is an expansion of Infamous 2, but does not require a copy of Infamous 2 in order to play.
The story is set aside from the canon aspect of the Infamous serie...
Standalone dlc
For infamous they couldn't be bothered to ask nixxes for a PC port?
Alot of people want that game on pc
is the metal gear master collection vol2 coming to pc too btw?
A lot of people just want the games to not be on PS3 
PS3 emulation is still pain even if the aspirin has kicked in
apparently some asus peripherals come with an re requiem code for now...
they're all overpriced... peripherals
overpriced is Asus in a nutshell
To be fair the platforming was a bit agonizing sometimes
i've played elden ring surely the platforming cant be that bad
Also they made the PS3 chug poorly
Anyone watching fallout?
Agonizing because of pepegness, not difficulty
Infamous 1 in particular had very sticky platforming
uh no elden ring has this really cancerous level where u gotta platform your way to complete it in order to get a specific ending to the game
it'd also be nice if the average corporate website would stop using megabytes of JavaScript frameworks.
Mmm. Fair enough
Elden ring obby
bruh
bruh
Imagine a Roblox obby with the title “Get to the end of the Elden Ring Erdtree” or something
Feel like that already exists
Maybe
I don’t play Elden Ring so I don’t know what that big yellow tree thing in the background is called
I call it the elden tree
I don't play the game either
Its called the erdtree
Elden ring has crazy lore tho

Whats wrong with theo
don't worry bro, this'll cheer you up: https://videocardz.com/newz/msi-teases-frieren-collaboration-for-a-limited-edition-graphics-card-in-china

Finish it, was really good
It is called a yellow tree 
finally...someone
we just have 8 episodes so far right?
Yeah the second season is only 8 episodes
let me guess, only CEOs will be able to afford the card
Now gotta wait for s3
CEOs and extreme frieren fans
ITS THE ERDTREE
Nuh uh
I think you erred with that one
okay hear me out though I don’t wanna spend $35 on just Elden Ring on a sale
you can understand why I didnt know
I can definitely parry that
They still haven’t put the dlc on sale yet have they
idk
Just another Souls game (tm)
The dlc is a must play
I just know that Dark Souls games don’t go on huge sales anymore
Like DS3 is way too high now ever since Elden Ring came out
Hasnt ever gone for more than a 50% discount
Checked the stats, went for $10 on sale before Elden Ring came out but now it can’t go below like $25 I think
and the sales are just done at random
Sometimes they just don’t go on sale for a while
They skipped Winter Sale to do a random weekend sale
The didnt go on sale during the winter sale btw
Like hell you would have
I’m sneaky
They’re not gonna detect a roomba
I’m gonna toss you down 2 flights of stairs
NOOOOOOO
How about you drop off the thumb drive and I’ll throw myself down the elevator shaft

I have this funny little thing called a job
That’s TOO DAMN BAD
are YOU going to pay my rent?
I’m seeing another woman
you don’t satisfy me anymore
Straightest conversation btw
Jokes on you, so am I
I’m married already
This is what living in the same city brings you
...Should this convo go into the wegg files 🤨
its to really make you feel the music 
Yes
It’s already there
Yup. It'll be next to the Roomba ad
One day I'm just gonna post the file and disappear and you all will be scratching your heads over why I saved so many random snippets on convos
He upgraded to a better robot vacuum cleaner
-# I'll use them to train a wegg bot frfr
bros gonna make a roomba shaped like an egg
256GB microSD for $48
512GB microSD for $75
found those at Walmart, are these high
I don’t remember the prices before
hey chat has prices on RAM dropped yet?
It’s not gonna be anything actually incriminating or bad
It’ll just be weird ass snippets
And that’s funny
Nope
