colorado wants to implement age verification at OS level

what in the actual hell is this nightmare

[queen briar]

the result of obidience

[elfin mural]

imagine having to verify your age every time you buy a new computer or reinstall an os

and that can be a huge issue if the computer is used by many people in a family

[queen briar]

imagine letting your government dictate how you live your life.

[misty sparrow]

what do you mean by pepeg

i swear before ram crisis i could have still sold this for $200

[nocturne flicker]

Bro you got a stick of 2666 and 3200mhz ram

[nocturne flicker]

@misty sparrow

[misty sparrow]

could sell for more with the ram shortage idk

salvage SSD + HDD and replace it with 500GB HDD probably

I have one lying around

[nocturne flicker]

The 4tb harddrive probably isn't going to give much premium tbh

Ideally it should because HDD my beloved

This is reality and HDD isn't gamer enough

[lethal jasper]

Hi chat

[lone mango]

It got blocked by courts two or three times

It won't happen

Plus how are they even gonna enforce it anyway

[elfin mural]

it better stay blocked

cuz it's an utterly stupid idea

[bitter ridge]

Damn

Many people with ssds without dram are yet unpacking so should get higher

[obtuse pike]

hell yeah

lowest graphics btw

still looks impressive

[lone mango]

true just turn up shadows and leave it fr

[elfin mural]

shadows is where the most vram is eaten up tho

[bitter ridge]

So nvidia pulled the driver for this game

Guess I should go with the older one and maybe risk some performance optimizations

[sinful blade]

Yes

[tacit geode]

Train Sim world 6 maxed

thats not actually bad

[sinful blade]

@shy onyx mind telling me what that was?

[bitter ridge]

Today is probably going to be another day of troubleshooting OpenGL errors on Linux (RDNA 2 GPU).

[velvet summit]

Name a yellow fruit

Orange 🗣️

[tranquil pebble]

Define "yellow"

Oranges can definitely fit some definition of it

[royal crow]

Wikipedia defines yellow as the spctral band of light within the ranges:
565–590 nm
510–530 THz
2.10–2.19 eV(per photon)

[royal crow]

Wikipedia defines orange as the spctral band of light within the ranges:
590–625 nm
480–510 THz
1.98–2.10 eV(per photon)

Pokemon has got a visual upgrade for their next game

Now can they upgrade to voice acting?

[tacit geode]

haahhaha

[icy ore]

Nah now you’re asking too much slow down

[rancid juniper]

Developers when they hear a human voice:

https://tenor.com/view/l-killer-bean-gif-16629089601247837920

[icy ore]

I’m gonna get crapped on for saying this, but those starter Pokémon are so lame

[icy ore]

Watch them just use ai voices lol

[rancid juniper]

Pokemon fans will find ways to defend that don't worry

[icy ore]

bro they’ll defend anything related to Pokémon stg

could put hitler as a Pokémon in that game and those die hard fans would like it

[rancid juniper]

Lmfao that's too much

But unfortunately true

[icy ore]

Lol point being that I think the fans and themselves have kind of backed in themselves into a corner by buying the game, no matter how bad it is

Therefore, why would the company spend more money on a product that is going to make money regardless?

All that being said this game does look pretty decent

[rancid juniper]

Sunk cost fallacy

[icy ore]

Oh is that what that’s called

[rancid juniper]

Next Pokemon game might actually use the switch 2's hardware for once

[rancid juniper]

Think so

[icy ore]

Interesting

[rancid juniper]

Definitely going to be turn based because it's not an Arceus game

[icy ore]

We saw what game freak can do with their new game as far as graphics go

So it will be interesting

[rancid juniper]

That one AAA game coming to Xbox: beast of reincarnation

[misty sparrow]

Either that or they can make the voices sound unintelligible like the Sims or something

It’s not that hard

I don’t know why they don’t do it

[rancid juniper]

They could've also used Tomodachi life voices too

[icy ore]

yeah huh the sims had whole bands come in to do sims covers of their songs smh

[rancid juniper]

To cheap out

[misty sparrow]

What do you mean I don’t imagine it would be expensive compared to actual VAs

[rancid juniper]

Pokemon games take like 3-10 MIL to make

[icy ore]

I think it’s hilarious that video game companies think that voice actors are what’s going to be the downfall of their game making profit when voice actors notoriously make very little money to begin with

[rancid juniper]

Voice acting with bigger "names" on-board takes a lot more money. But here's the thing though, you don't have to get them when you can hire people getting into or is already a novice at VA work

For much less

[rancid juniper]

True

[royal crow]

Persimmon or sm idk

[icy ore]

bapple

[tacit geode]

the tiktok one

pokemon became garbage

i misss the old pixel days

[misty sparrow]

It would be funny if the Pokémon anime needs more to make than the actual game

[pliant berry]

every chat im opening today people are talking about pokemon, did i miss something

[misty sparrow]

new Pokémon game announced

[pliant berry]

oh

[misty sparrow]

and it’s the 30th anniversary so

[velvet summit]

this is the first chat i opened that is talking about pokemon

[unreal trail]

[velvet summit]

[unreal trail]

[rancid juniper]

Pretty sure they do at some point considering the amount of episodes they produce

The latest Pokemon anime has over 120 episodes lol

[rancid juniper]

Guys look, REVIEWER's SPEC

[tranquil pebble]

there's a chance they have the same 96 GB kit of RAM as I do lol

[dusk knot]

You just heard of this?

[rancid juniper]

you have alot of ram, may i have somee? 🥺

[rancid juniper]

no, but its the first time i've seen it implemented

[dusk knot]

It's great

[misty sparrow]

GET THIS GUY HE HAS RAM

[velvet summit]

ninety five gigabytes of ram

lets jump them

[dusk knot]

https://tenor.com/view/jojos-bizarre-adventure-milton-jojo-kicking-fight-gif-16647809

[tranquil pebble]

They're not a datacenter so wrong target to jump

Remember the real enemy

Honestly I hope OpenAI collapses and causes a slow down in the building of datacenters

[velvet summit]

we're jumping them because it would be easier to jump an individual

ong

[rancid juniper]

real

[proud jackal]

Our ram is now going to be family heirloom

[frigid stag]

640p???

[tranquil pebble]

imagine upscaling at 1080p, yuck

[dusk knot]

Theo has RAM too, people

[frigid stag]

Ye on a 5500xt that would be cooked

[tranquil pebble]

720p should upscale fine to 1440p though

[frigid stag]

Also windows 11??

[royal crow]

HE HAS RAM GET HIM

[tranquil pebble]

Linux would probably work too

[frigid stag]

I mean 10 probably works unless they did some bs on purpose to stop it launching

[royal crow]

Me when I build 16KB ram in Minecraft so the now openai-controlled fbi shows up at my house

[tranquil pebble]

reminder than consumer DDR5 does not work in servers

[frigid stag]

Need ecc

[tranquil pebble]

on DDR5, ECC uses a different slot design than UDIMM last I knew

yeah, the two are not even pin compatible anymore

[grand wasp]

ECC ram is dedicated for server ram IIRC

[tranquil pebble]

RDIMMs, yeah

[velvet summit]

workstations cpus/mobos support ecc as well

[elfin mural]

ddr5 technically has ecc in the module

[tranquil pebble]

With DDR4 you could have motherboards that supported both, but not anymore

[elfin mural]

but ofc it's limited in functionality

[tranquil pebble]

hence why I am using RDIMM and UDIMM terms

and I suspect DDR5 RDIMMs are stupid expensive atp

[elfin mural]

yeah

[tranquil pebble]

yeah a 32 GB kit is about $1500

[bitter ridge]

Just sad state all around for the Radeon Division

[rancid juniper]

why isn't the game tagged as horror?

[tranquil pebble]

and Nvidia ofc is too expensive for most people to consider

[velvet summit]

i barely even use upscaling because the games i play dont even support either

plus i'm somewhat limited due to not as good single core performance

[frigid stag]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1334469922243346515/1462673852059353260/9c5ff748d30ac4bf155a10d095714243071ea75abcc6e3ef22f87f83c18cc598.gif

[tranquil pebble]

I have a 9800x3D so I am usually not CPU limited

[sinful blade]

I used forced upscaling on d2

Have to set my resolution at 1080p for it to work

Rivals is the only game I play that lets me do it in menu

[velvet summit]

i dont have any reason to upscale anyways

[bitter ridge]

People treat Re games more as action games

[velvet summit]

i'm just playing beamng and euro/american truck simulator

[tranquil pebble]

and at 1440p, even Borderlands 4 runs fine on my 6900 XT without upscaling

[rancid juniper]

• No official FSR 4 support for Vulkan
• No official FSR 4 support for RDNA 2/3
• No games use radiance caching
• COD BO7 is the only game that Uses Ray Regeneration (AMD's version of Ray reconstruction)
• Slow FSR support for games

[velvet summit]

though i might need upscaling when death stranding 2 comes out

on pc

[tranquil pebble]

UDNA still nowhere in sight, despite their old roadmap too

[rancid juniper]

AMid

[sinful blade]

Even running on a 3600, still get 90+ fps native

On my 5700x, it’s like 140

[tranquil pebble]

all the companies are mid tbh, just for different reasons

[rancid juniper]

I wish ATI technologies never went under man

[remote geode]

press my windows key? but... i don't have one!

[rancid juniper]

WHAT

oh my

[remote geode]

ikr? they were onto some good stuff

[rancid juniper]

they even made tessellation hardware accelerated (ATI TruForm)

[tranquil pebble]

oh yeah and no RDNA 4 on iGPUs AFAIK

which is just baffling

[rancid juniper]

No RDNA 4 laptops either

they're not doing ANYTHING

[heady plinth]

Mo27q28g is back to $500 again on shellshocker today.

Shellshocker who?

[heady plinth]

https://www.newegg.com/Shell-Shocker/EventSaleStore/ID-10381?cm_sp=redirect-_-todays-deals

[bitter ridge]

Tim recommended this monitor for best within $600 and I trust him

[dusk knot]

*$600

[heady plinth]

$600 -$100

[dusk knot]

Wait.....

You're right

$500

With the promo code

[misty sparrow]

and it comes with RE9

[dusk knot]

Eh

[misty sparrow]

if you buy it can I get the code /j

[bitter ridge]

Excellent game for an oled too

[dusk knot]

Wow.....her hand looks almost real

if only the engine had better hair ngl

one look at anyone’s hair from any RE game and you can tell it’s RE

[dusk knot]

That's fine

[misty sparrow]

Please and thank yous enforced at gun point

[tranquil pebble]

tbf, hair is not an easy thing to get right in games

[dusk knot]

Reminds me of that SpongeBob episode of when the krusty krab was under new management and Squidward had to change his demeanor entirely not to get fired lol

But instead we got AI

[heady plinth]

I decided to get one. Tired of waiting on every incremental advancement and putting it off.

[twilit stone]

oleds are amazing

it will make every single game look SO much better

[empty tide]

Oohhh it's oled. I was wondering why there was a 500+ pricetag

Also helps that it says oled at the end of its description. I think I need a cup of coffee

[lone mango]

[worn night]

we gonna have core ultra on lga 1700?

[lone mango]

Balanced 1080p?

I think

[dusk knot]

OH!

TELL ME HOW THE BANDING IS!

If it has any at all

Soon everyone will have OLED....

[tacit geode]

Oled is garbage

Only tn panels are good

[frigid stag]

Based pwm knower

[lone mango]

The moment when a good oled is 4x the price of ips

[worn wave]

Yep, 1080*.58=626.4

[lone mango]

Oled is good but not worth for me

[worn wave]

Oled prices are up a lot too. For a while they were $400 or even a bit lower

[sinful blade]

Can you give me one too

[lone mango]

Honestly not bad because the rx 6600 is like a 1080 in performance, so 720p in 2026 is not bad tbh

[worn wave]

Now the cheapest one on pcpp is $600

[frigid stag]

Nah the game actually is pretty good

[lone mango]

Surprisingly it is

[worn wave]

720p is quality preset (1080*.66=712.8)

[lone mango]

I know

That’s what it says the 6600 can do

[worn wave]

But upscaling to 1080p is kinda bleh

[heady plinth]

Sounds like it varies from one to the next. Some people say it's terrible and they are returning (not just this model but the other 4th gen woleds too), some people don't notice, some say it gets better or goes away entirely after an anti burn in cycle. I tend to use dark mode and a pretty much black wallpaper so I think I'm likely to notice it if it's there for me. Might end up changing those habits.

[dusk knot]

Good. You've done your research

[heady plinth]

I've put up with a stuck green pixel on an acer before. I did replace it before I needed to but I made it a couple years. The only monitor that I couldn't deal with was a curved one. That gave me a seasick sort of feeling when scrolling.

[worn night]

oh HEWL no

This is the new thing

Oh my gosh

The crypto scams have ceased and now people are just straight up sending nsfw server links

This is the second time ive seen this this week

[tranquil pebble]

nsfw server links (presumably also scams) are old news. Been going on for a long time.

[worn night]

Oh well its coming back

[icy ore]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-stupid-stupid-town-hey-buddy-spongebob-gif-6574682199670721484

[bitter ridge]

Sad that the reputation of crypto got ruined forever by the mining boom and the scam link stuff

[empty tide]

I think "crypto bros" did a lot of damage

[velvet summit]

there was only one benefit of crypto and that it was decentralized, but the downside of its value being so volatile for 90% of the crypto that basically nobody but crypto bros invested in it

[bitter ridge]

I bought 2 bitcoin at $1000 so Ig I will always forever be biased

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgOXq_tpLWE

Soo much power for only 210k god damn

[dusk knot]

No money detected

[worn night]

https://tenor.com/view/can-we-ban-this-guy-gif-21304842

[heady plinth]

The downside is that it is decentralized and unregulated. If you got scammed there is no protection like a credit card. There is no insurance like fdic or ncua. And if you use a platform/exchange where there could be then you've defeated the point of it being decentralized. Plus a bunch of the exchanges were just blatant scams and/or got hacked and lost everything for everyone. It ever taking off was the result of nothing but idiots and criminals preying on them. Not to mention the big untouched accounts floating around or the people who lost their key to failed storage or other stupidity.

[river elk]

Is it worth upgrading from a 3080ti + 5900x 16gb DDR4?

[velvet summit]

the fact that it's unregulated was the benefit, so that you could buy things that would be blocked or tracked by credit card

[river elk]

1440p, but I could get a 4k

[bitter ridge]

Now ? I would say no

[velvet summit]

mainly for dubiously legal purchases

[river elk]

even with a MC bundle?

what parts are inflated price wise

I know Ram is

[heady plinth]

Are you running into a lack of performance in something you actually use the pc for where you feel you're being held back?

[velvet summit]

alternatively, there are also cases of legal purchases that were censored by credit card companies (adult content)

[river elk]

nothing I can immediately think of

[velvet summit]

i'm not saying that people should switch to crypto, but it was also one of the only workarounds for online purchases when credit card companies tried to stop transactions of certain things

[river elk]

I want to play the new assassins creed games and play more story games

I also acknowledge that I might be spending just to spend

[tranquil pebble]

that is an entire rabbit hole of its own

and its not even always adult content

[velvet summit]

adult content is just one notable example that everyone probably is aware of

[heady plinth]

Yeah it has that benefit. Depends on your local government how useful that alternative currency is. Comes with a lot of downsides too though. It never should have gotten as popular or worth as much as it did imo. I thought it was weird from the moment people started using it for something other than buying drugs on tor and even then it was weird people thought it was worth anything.

[bitter ridge]

What's the mc bundle you are looking at

[unreal trail]

[velvet summit]

using crypto for anything asides from things the credit card companies are censoring is silly yeah

[river elk]

open to other suggestions too

[heady plinth]

The 16gb of ram might cause a problem sometimes. Unless you have some goal you're not hitting then it does just sound like upgrading to upgrade yeah.

[velvet summit]

hell, you typically get reward points or cashback on credit purchases

[river elk]

I do have a 32gb kit

less speed

32gb 3400MT/s and my home kit is 16gb 3600cl16 I think

[dusk knot]

I might get the same thing as well

[heady plinth]

That shouldn't make too big of a difference. If you need the capacity for something it will make a lot more difference than slightly faster or better timings ram.

[river elk]

yeah I thought the kit I had on the pc I am on was a lot worse

[pliant berry]

tempting... but I do like money in my pocket

[river elk]

it doesnt look half bad

[dusk knot]

Yeah

And you get RAM

32gb. That's the new standard

[heady plinth]

If you want to upgrade platform then it will only really help if you've got a lot of gpu headroom left in the tank. Upgrading to 4k monitor would be the opposite of that problem. 4k on a 10 or even 12gb card is also kinda sketchy in a lot of new games.

[dusk knot]

No 5600mhz speeds either. That's good

[river elk]

why tf is 5080 1.5k

thats insane

[dusk knot]

Get the FE, breh

don't bother with anything else

[river elk]

out of stock

[heady plinth]

It's been 1300+ pretty much the entire year it's been out. There was a brief period in the fall where it was $1000 or even occasionally $900.

5070ti is only about 15% slower but that's like $1000 now too.

[river elk]

I mean money isnt inherently an issue

I just

dont wanna spend 1.5k on a gpu

[heady plinth]

9070xt is also reasonable but it's about $150 over msrp too. Only about $750 rather than $1000 though.

[pliant berry]

my whole system ain't even 1.5k

[river elk]

how does a 9070xt compare

[heady plinth]

Pretty much neck and neck with 5070ti.

[dusk knot]

9070xt= no path tracing

😔

[grand wasp]

Poll is up for today folks!
#polls-polls-polls message

[dusk knot]

Also cuda accelerated application

[grand wasp]

COME GET IT WHILE ITS HOT

[heady plinth]

Dlss is better and supported in more games. Radeon is still way behind in some apps or portions of apps like some tools in after effects and is hilariously slow in blender.

[river elk]

I feel like nvidia would be the way to go

I dont think atp anything engineering will be intensive enough to matter though'

[dusk knot]

AMD is second rate, people

[heady plinth]

For gaming it's a lot closer gap on features than it used to be. Nvidia still has an edge.

[river elk]

I kinda wanna go a custom loop route

hardline

[dusk knot]

Controllers are only for none shooter RPGS for me

[river elk]

how is 5070 on 1440p/4k?

those arent bad prices

[dusk knot]

4k. I wouldn't

[heady plinth]

Hardline is a lot of money that could be better spend on something else when you're looking at midrange hardware imo. You get no real difference out of the better cooling either, it's just something you look at and some extra work to maintain.

[river elk]

midrange hardware?

on a 5080/9850x?

[heady plinth]

Yeah. Doesn't feel right calling it that at those prices but yeah.

[river elk]

whats high end

theres only one gpu thats better

[heady plinth]

4090 was significantly faster than 5080 too. So two actually. A 5080 has about half the cores of a 5090. 40 and 50 series were ridiculously skewed at the top end. Halo cards used to be only slightly better than the regular 80 class high end stuff.

[river elk]

damn

no point upgrading from a 3080ti to a 4090 i feel like

[heady plinth]

They are stupid expensive still too.

[river elk]

4090s are screwed nvm

ngl I feel like my 3080ti is gonna be just fine lmao

I might do some scuffed system and run 3080ti/6700xt on the same system

[heady plinth]

Yeah. A 5070 would be about on par with that. If you aren't getting the top card the pace of progress has fallen off a cliff the last two gens.

[river elk]

yeah

3080ti is golden sample too I pull 3090+ numbers

[heady plinth]

Next gen will have a node shrink and maybe some competition from amd or even intel at the higher end to get nvidia to stop sitting on their thumb with the 80 cards. I have a 7900xtx and unless there is a great deal on something or there is something 50+% faster and at ~200W instead of 360W then I'm sitting tight.

[frigid stag]

isnt 3080 ti same as 3090 already sometimes faster cuz the 3090 vram overheating

[nocturne flicker]

I can't give an accurate response because gamepads have situational uses for me

[heady plinth]

Pretty close to it but 12gb instead of 24.

[river elk]

I lowkey think just running dual GPUs will be good enough

[heady plinth]

For lossless scaling?

[river elk]

swap out 16gb trident z royals to 32gb bs kit

[lone mango]

That’s a huge leap in performance

[river elk]

wdym

[frigid stag]

also why did my pc fans sound like a lawn mover for a minute

[dusk knot]

I got a 70 pecent uplift from my 3080ti

[heady plinth]

What's the second gpu for?

[frigid stag]

is it the bearings

[river elk]

thats p good

[nocturne flicker]

I got 50% uplift from when I lifted myself out of a chair and stood up

[river elk]

was gonna use it to run the second monitor, encoding/streaming, and anything the 3080ti doesnt need on it

[heady plinth]

The resale value on a 3080ti and the cost of a used 4090 is a really big gap though.

[river elk]

I have two PCs, one for home and one for school so I thought I could just combine em

[dusk knot]

🤨

[tranquil pebble]

Radeon Instinct MI50, RTX 4060M, and Intel UHD on the same system. Once I get an eGPU enclosure

[heady plinth]

Nvnenc is likely a lot better. Second monitor won't make any real difference.

[nocturne flicker]

[river elk]

The only reason I would want the 6700xt is cause I thought it got better performance on some assassins creed games

I dont think thats true anymore

[tranquil pebble]

everything past RTX 3000 series is overpriced as hell

[frigid stag]

just run it off the igpu truly

[heady plinth]

Than a 3080ti?

[river elk]

no igpu

yes

[frigid stag]

get 5080

[heady plinth]

6700xt was like 3060ti or 3070 level. That would have to be a hell of an outlier game for it to beat a 3080ti.

[river elk]

in all honesty

I probably shouldnt get anything

[heady plinth]

Even cod is only like 20-30% radeon favoring.

[frigid stag]

impossible

[river elk]

signing bonus getting to m e

[frigid stag]

need 6900xt

[river elk]

the pc market is so diff from when I was last in it

[heady plinth]

It's pretty bad right now. AI is screwing things up as bad as crypto mining did.

[river elk]

except crypto mining helped lme lmfao

[frigid stag]

if you dont need ddr5 ram its pretty good

[river elk]

I mined for a year on a 3070 and bought a 3080ti with it

I will stick probably wioth ym PC then

dunno if its worth upgrading or rehauling the cooling

its a custom loop rn but soft tubing

kinda a pain in the ass

congratulations, and that means a lot coming from me

[dusk knot]

I'm working on it

The dream is Brazil

[misty sparrow]

why is that the dream

are you going to do something there

[dusk knot]

Living

I need a new environment

Life is dull here

[misty sparrow]

where are you right now

[dusk knot]

Florida sucks

[misty sparrow]

hmm

It’s got its pros and cons

Never been to Brazil but I think they have a problem with crime or something

But their culture is cool

[acoustic palm]

Oh yeah

Big time

All except for like 4 were duplicates from sending to my uncles

[amber aspen]

hey im looking at the ryzen 7 7800x3d but im also looking at the ryzen 7 9800x3d im not should which to get

[dusk knot]

I can take it

Already been there for more than 2 months

Depends on the area ofc

[acoustic palm]

What’s your total budget for the build?

[bitter ridge]

I feel a similar sort of way about Dubai

[acoustic palm]

And what country

[bitter ridge]

Would like to retire and settle there

[weak cedar]

i don't think i had shipping from another country fast as this one
Thursday, 2/26/26 > TAIPEI CITY TW
Friday, 2/27/26 3:20 AM > SENNAN-SHI JP
4:55 AM Departed FedEx hub in America
12:08 PM Delivered

it was literally picked up on 26 and delivered on 27

[nocturne flicker]

Pros:

Cons: Florida Man, gators, hurricanes, literally going to sink into the ocean

[dusk knot]

It's been 17 plus years in total. I've had enough

[amber aspen]

i already have my motherboard picked out i went with the msi mpg x870e carbon wifi @acoustic palm

[weak cedar]

join the midwest gang

[acoustic palm]

Is anything bought?

And are you just upgrading your cpu/mobo/ram?

[amber aspen]

my ram is compatible with both intel and amd so im swapping from intel to amd

[acoustic palm]

Ok so just a cpu/mobo upgrade?

Do you have a budget for it

[amber aspen]

so im going with a msi mpg x870e carbon wifi motherboard its a more premium board

[acoustic palm]

There’s like

No point in a premium board

Esp since it looks like you’re going with a gaming cpu

[bitter ridge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHAZyUAnO-0

The kind of stuff you would only see in Dubai

[fresh timber]

anybody have cheap hdds

site

i need more storage

😢

@rancid juniper i swore u was staff or tecchie

[amber aspen]

@acoustic palm im going for eesthetics hints the more premium board im ok with spending more just thought id ask the difference between the 2 cpus

[acoustic palm]

9800x3d is better

But like don’t get a premium board, you’re only wasting money esp if it’s for looks

[heady plinth]

I bought a premium board. It was on sale for $200 instead of $350 though and I wanted the usb ports.

[amber aspen]

my current build has the i9 13900k want to move to a more im a content creator/gamer so the extra usb ports and features are a must for me

[acoustic palm]

Isn’t that a 400$ board

[amber aspen]

yes somewhat like that

[acoustic palm]

Get a “worse” board and a 9950x3d

Esp if you’re a content creator

[bitter ridge]

Sad that the Msi carbon series boards actually don't have a carbon fiber looking design

[acoustic palm]

440$ for a 9800x3d vs 675$ for a 9950x3d

You can get a 9950x3d with a a different board for basically the same price

[heady plinth]

I would also do that. Pretty much any x870e will have 2x usb 4 ports.

[acoustic palm]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QnxMwY this would cost the same as a 9800x3d plus the board you chose

It’ll be a LOT better for content creation than a 9800x3d

[heady plinth]

I'd probably get a tomahawk or aorus or something instead of that cheap.

[lone mango]

[amber aspen]

ya i just dont like the yellow on the board lol

[heady plinth]

I don't like the yellow on the tomahawk either tbh. I really like the livemixers this gen or the msi pro-p I think it is, the silver one. The pro-p sucks though and the livemixer is asrock.

[opaque sedge]

the scalpers are scalping this mouse

And wegg is letting them order 3

[heady plinth]

If someone is willing to pay that much for a mouse let them.

[amber aspen]

i paid 80$ for my mouse and im happy with mine

[misty sparrow]

This is the mouse that got people banned from Apex right? Because you could click faster or something

[dusk knot]

$180.. no thanks

[heady plinth]

$14 on aliexpress for me.

[dusk knot]

@proud jackal but it for me

[opaque sedge]

The idea behind it is to basically reducing the click sensitivity ig

[nocturne flicker]

But it for him

[random osprey]

[amber aspen]

im still using the razer basilisk v3 wired

[opaque sedge]

U can backorder it from wegg

Kind of tempted but i want a new controller too cuz

Bunch of single player games i wanna play this year

[nocturne flicker]

I want to pay bill

Bill keeps getting biggerer

Number go up

[dusk knot]

How heavy is the mouse?

[amber aspen]

ill probally just go with the ryzen 9 9850x3d and msi tomahawk wifi combo

thats my current setup

[tacit geode]

what do you have current?

[amber aspen]

13900k rtx 5070 and 6000mhz cl36 drr5 ram mostly want to switch to a more energy saving cpu

my psu is a 1000w seasonic vertex psu

im also tired of always having to make sure my bios is up to date just so my cpu dnt fry itself

[lone mango]

That stuff got completely patched a while ago

If anything, you would want to be on top of updates even more now that you have the 9850

Oh I misread

If you did get it then

[amber aspen]

so im vtuber/content creater which cpu u think 7800x3d 9800x3d or the new 9850x3d never had a amd powered pc always been intel so im not sure honestly

[lone mango]

If you want to save some money you could just undervolt your processor and not worry about excessively high voltages

People who undervolted craptor lake back then seemed to have been unaffected by this if I remember correctly

[amber aspen]

ya im running my cpu on llc mode 6 actaully

i could go lower but the programs i use start crashing at aything lower than 6

[bitter ridge]

9850x3d and 9800x3d both are like 30$ difference in price at most iirc so both are solid choices

[bitter ridge]

They just delayed the inevitable

[heady plinth]

Are you doing your own editing? Are you working with long format or just clips?

[amber aspen]

So I have a secondary editing PC actually that also captures my main pc

It has a cheap i5 13600k and ddr4 motherboard

[lone mango]

I think that is sending more voltage

Unless it is inverse

And higher is lower

[amber aspen]

So I actually run Intel recommended settings all I did was disable enhanced turbo and ia cep support then just tested llcs till my system was unstable

Until I found a stable llc

[lone mango]

The real gains would come from the more load the cpu has

[wary fjord]

👀

[lone mango]

But since you have another computer for editing, that would mean you are just gaming on this one

[heady plinth]

Were you planning to swap the i9 into the editing one? If you have a dedicated editing pc then just getting a gaming cpu like a 9800x3d is fine.

[lone mango]

And in that case the power consumption wouldn't be as much of a problem because it won't be running as much

[tranquil pebble]

9800x3d is very very responsive. I love mine

[amber aspen]

Ya the PC has 3 top exhaust fans a 1 rear exhaust and 2 140mm reverse blade fans at the side and the the bottom department has 2 140mm noctua a14 chromax fans

[velvet summit]

[robust night]

So question for the people familiar with ram diagnostic.
I've been having random pc crashing for a long time now it use to just reboot and not like a power reboot all lights would stay on and it would just reboot
and now it will just freeze up and the audio will start buzzing causing me to turn it off and on
I replaced
Motherboard
CPU
PSU
I even tested RAM and reinstalled windows twice
I did Memtest86 and testmem5 on the ada7777 extreme test for 3 full cycles and 86 had 12 passes over 8 hours
My only options are gpu which I ran tests no artifacts and my drive healths say good.
someone help me before I go mad

[topaz crown]

Hello @robust night! It appears that you're asking for help. If you need help with building a PC, consider tagging <@&525119001324683264>, or if you need some help navigating to a specific channel(i.e. our #anime or #build-pics chats), you'll be able to find them in the channel list on the left!

[robust night]

<@&525119001324683264>

[lone mango]

Ok so even the higher numbers increase it, just less

If you want to keep using the intel cpu, try undervolting

[amber aspen]

Ya my default for my motherboard is like mode 16

[worn wave]

have you done a fresh windows install?

[velvet summit]

ground loop?

[amber aspen]

Which even msi said that mode 16 is way too high for my cpu they suggested mode 9

[robust night]

yes twice

[lone mango]

Are you just gaming on this computer

[amber aspen]

This pc u see in the photo is the main gaming PC my second PC is on the floor actually

[lone mango]

Ok, so you would benefit more from undervolting I think

[amber aspen]

Don't got any updated pics but here's the second PC

[lone mango]

Which mpg is that?

z790?

[amber aspen]

Z790 carbon wifi ii motherboard

[lone mango]

Have you actually looked at your voltages and power draw?

[amber aspen]

1.15V to 1.30V is what I average

[lone mango]

What about before and after

[amber aspen]

1.35V – 1.45V but goes alot higher under load

[lone mango]

Is that after or before

[amber aspen]

But to be honest while gaming I'm only seeing around 60-70c with spikes 80c

[lone mango]

Is that also before or after? What about power draw?

[amber aspen]

These are before my bios tweaks just everything stock

[lone mango]

Ok so it was lower before

Which makes sense

[tranquil pebble]

Anime and building PCs are related lol.

[amber aspen]

Lower after I applied the Bios tweaks

[lone mango]

Man llc is confusing because it is different for each board

Ok then

[amber aspen]

Ikr I was confused at first too

[lone mango]

Spikes up to 80c is pretty high though even with an aio

Do you remember what the power draw was like before and after or nah

[amber aspen]

So my motherboard is set to never exceed 400a with pl1 and pl2 at 253w

[lone mango]

It quite literally varies per board and even more so from manufacturer

[sinful blade]

Was trying to show different channels lmao

[tranquil pebble]

ik

[lone mango]

Some have it to where higher number is higher voltages and others have it to be where higher number is lower

[lone mango]

Well you aren't hitting 253 while gaming

That is just a power limit

I mean real time power draw and real time temperatures

[sinful blade]

It’s just a placeholder message till I can get more techiehelps

[amber aspen]

Yes I sometimes draw up to 330w while gaming

[lone mango]

What the hell

Ok so I really don't know intel then

[amber aspen]

All good

[lone mango]

Intel's true power

[velvet summit]

Intel likes to boost

[lone mango]

In this case, get the ryzen

I have never seen intel draw that much power while gaming before

[amber aspen]

Boost till they crap themselves

[velvet summit]

We're going up up up

[amber aspen]

Ya Intels boost algorithm is so confusing it ain't funny

[velvet summit]

Fun fact
Golden (from Kpop demon hunters) is at the correct BPM to use for CPR

Do with that information as you will

[opaque sedge]

Ykw else likes going up

Wait

I forgot…

https://tenor.com/view/mario-super-mario-bros-depression-sad-mario-and-luigi-gif-14815881022592239601

[amber aspen]

But ya I wanna distance myself from Intel and move to amd later down the road I'll move my editing PC to amd as well

[velvet summit]

https://tenor.com/view/wizard-battle-magician-i-cast-punkeydoodles8-brazilian-wax-gif-1614920885414437029

[lone mango]

If you want to save some money you could just move the intel build to the editing rig but up to you

The e cores do help here

[nocturne flicker]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I'm bored

[nocturne flicker]

Stonks

[opaque sedge]

[amber aspen]

@lone mango but ya how Intel llc technically works is at lower llc ur CPU uses less voltages but in return ur CPU is able to boost higher while drawing less power and is able to maintain those higher boosts longer

[opaque sedge]

Guys

Should i get a new controller for upcoming single player games i am looking forward to

Or should i get meat

For meat jokes

[nocturne flicker]

I think you should get more control

I’m in control

(Im not)

[lone mango]

I was reading a mess of a thread going over this and with their msi boards, the lower numbers were adding more voltage. 1-8. 8 would barely add any, 1 would add a lot

Gigabyte is the other way around

[opaque sedge]

I wish i could have control over the headache I am suffering from rn tho

[sinful blade]

8bitdo ultimate 2c

[lone mango]

So I guess yours can go both ways

[opaque sedge]

Ibuprofen didn’t do shit

[nocturne flicker]

I wish I didn't have to pay $300 in utilities this month

[opaque sedge]

I have an 8bitdo and its become uncomfy for me for long gaming sessions

[sinful blade]

But is it the 2c

[opaque sedge]

Ultimate 2 i think

The one with two bumpers and two back buttons

[amber aspen]

@opaque sedge I actually own a 8bitdo ultimate v2 I absolutely love it it uses hall effect how stick mods

[sinful blade]

Your opinion is invalid

@opaque sedge

[opaque sedge]

The newest ones use tmr now and i think 8bitdo have always used hall effects

[amber aspen]

Well my are actually modded so

[sinful blade]

I’ll never go back to an Xbox controller after having this 2c

[lone mango]

ps6 controller tmr please

[tranquil pebble]

I kinda wish there was a KDE themed Android launcher

[opaque sedge]

Gamesir’s newest g7pro is nice too

Wish it had 6 extra buttons tho

[opaque sedge]

https://tenor.com/view/hysterical-laughter-laughing-gif-25735842

[lone mango]

I will do something bad if they still plan obsolescence for the ps6 controller

[tranquil pebble]

PS6 controller will only cost $200 for the base model

[opaque sedge]

I wish the steam controller would comeout soon

[opaque sedge]

Imagine if they actually increase the controller prices in order to make up for how much the ps6 hardware will cost cuz yk ram and storage

[tranquil pebble]

I want Steam Frame

[lone mango]

tmr should be cheap enough by then to where they could use it on the controller without it being this bad

although

[opaque sedge]

Wait

[tranquil pebble]

general rule of thumb is prices don't go down, only up

[lone mango]

they probably would do some shit like that to make up for the lack of extra controllers being bought

[opaque sedge]

Wouldn’t sony technically be the corp who would have enough resources to make a ram fab

[amber aspen]

I had my 8bitdo ultimate v2 for a year then after I looked into modding it and I absolutely love it

[tranquil pebble]

Amazon could probably make a fab if they really wanted to

imagine Amazon RAM

[opaque sedge]

Amazon basics ddr5

Cl46

[tranquil pebble]

also there's a cursed timeline where AMD stands for Amazon Micro Devices

[opaque sedge]

But i doubt amazon would the scarcity prolly benefits them in the long run

Cuz they’re deep in the ai race too right?

[tranquil pebble]

yes

[dusk knot]

Hm

[lone mango]

Amazon Basics DDR5 RAM 6000 MHz for PC, Gaming PC, Gaming Laptop, for Desktop Computer, Gaming RAM for Personal Computer Desktop

[tranquil pebble]

cl46 is pretty normal isnt it? at least for JEDEC

[opaque sedge]

I dunno rn cl36 is the norm for pc builds

Cl30/32 used to be the norm bfr rammagedon

[tranquil pebble]

yeah 46 is normal CL

[nocturne flicker]

Comes with free spyware that tracks what you use your ram for and hijacks your wifi/ethernet to report back to Amazon

[lone mango]

I need more keywords

@lone mango im just glad I got before ram prices shot up

[lone mango]

My brother upgraded as it started going up

Got a prebuilt that was ~$100 more than what it should have cost

Not so bad but could be better

[dusk knot]

@opaque sedge I'm on

[opaque sedge]

hell yeah\

lemme boot up the game

@dusk knot 1114-6712’s my friend code

[tacit geode]

I hate the x870e master x3d

Trying to update bios

It goes whole thing

Then just shuts the pc off

And I boot it up again still the same version

Tried it 4 times now

All 4 same issue

Looks like it does right but fully shuts off

I give up

I've tried 3-4 different flash drives

Even a USB 2 one just to be safe

They all do the same

[heady plinth]

Did you try the q flash plus button?

[tacit geode]

Yep

I do the flash drive properly and it just shuts off after pressing it

[heady plinth]

So the light blinks a couple times then it just goes dead again? That normally means it errored. Wrong usb port, file name, not fat 32, didn't rename to gigabyte.bin, or failed checksum (not the right bios file for that board).

[tacit geode]

No

It literally fan spins

Then off

No blinky

oh

ill try one last thing

[heady plinth]

The only time it's failed for me was my own fault on a b550m ds3h ac, I picked the wrong revision so it was incompatible. It blinked a couple times then went back off.

[tacit geode]

Yep same thing

I tried the rename as gigabyte.bin

And fat 32 flashdrive

Yep nothing I even removed all USB

It's fine gigabyte is just trash

A. Before You Begin:

1. From GIGABYTE's website, download the latest compressed BIOS update file that matches your motherboard
   model.
2. Uncompress the downloaded BIOS file, save it to your USB flash drive, and rename it to GIGABYTE.bin.
   Note: The USB flash drive must use FAT32/16/12 file system.
3. Connect the power cables to the 12V power connector (connect either one if there are two) and main
   power connector.
4. Please turn on the power supply before connecting the USB flash drive to the Q-Flash Plus port on the
   back panel.

[heady plinth]

Looks right to me. I've only ever used 8gbs for it but now that windows lets you format stuff bigger than 32gb as fat32 I don't think that's an issue you have to work around anymore.

[tacit geode]

Ill try smaller

[proud jackal]

What happened

[tacit geode]

trying to update bios

ssince its the original the board was manufactured with

Nov 6, 2025

and theres 3 revisions after

My 8gbbis working I think

I wish I knew

It's slow blinking

[heady plinth]

Should take ~5 min then go out if it worked.

Tho noticed amd is so much slower

For boot time when it's initial boot

[ashen swan]

Hnm

Ps6 release

[rancid juniper]

strange power move ngl, playstation got the rights for the game but won't budge because miyazaki said no

[velvet summit]

Most of the major game developers are very protective of their work, because it's basically their child

Especially the ones who want to micromanage every tiny detail

[rancid juniper]

if it was owned by microsoft you'd best believe they would still go for it lmfao

[rancid juniper]

thats why you see insane copyright protections over there

[rancid juniper]

speaking of protections, some people have speculated that Resident Evil 9 has around 7 security checks

LMFAO, making sure no one gets it for free

3070 rog white and lian li 217 infinity with a 7500F
and
Swaping a 9070XT with a Intel B60 then move my 7700 there

[opaque sedge]

[rancid juniper]

going for a more efficient pc?

[ashen swan]

The crew motorfest might be the best racing game rn since Need for speed Unbound doesn't get updates anymore

[rancid juniper]

alr

[rancid juniper]

that will be overshadowed greatly when FH6 launches in a couple months

[ashen swan]

i don't want the current build i have to be useless while i try to manage deals and stuff

Question anyone know how much a 7940hs 780m laptop goes for? Cant find any pricing.

[rancid juniper]

feel like something like that goes for $450-600

[void pendant]

new?

[rancid juniper]

either new or used but there are a couple chips that use the 780m igpu

8845hs, 7840hs, 7840h, 7840u

[void pendant]

is there a laptop that kinda took it's place?

or closest in performance to get a more accurate price?

[bitter ridge]

The loading screen of Marathon is really satisfying to my eyeballs with all these vibrant colours

[bitter ridge]

Hopefully new Forza has a better sense of progression

That is where Nfs and The Crew always have been better then Forza

[rancid juniper]

after hearing everything about it the game is gonna be alot better than we first thought

they listened to so much feedback

[rancid juniper]

are you planning to sell a laptop or something?

[nocturne flicker]

After hearing everything I listened to so much feedback

[bitter ridge]

The thing but japan meme is very applicable to Fh6

[opaque sedge]

R u guys gonna get it at launch?

Or wait for a sale

[rancid juniper]

wait for sale

[rancid juniper]

what a developer 🔥

[nocturne flicker]

Twizzlers not licorice

Wait that wasn't supposed to go in this discord

I blame the ping

[bitter ridge]

Comes out 5 days before my birthday

[frigid stag]

wow thats cheap

[nocturne flicker]

Well since I mentioned it I bought Twizzlers on ebay and got Canadian stuff shipped from NJ

That got posted to UPS as being from Amazon which then got handed off to the USPS

[rancid juniper]

Dunno if I ever asked you this but do you think they've done well with the pricing in your region?

[bitter ridge]

Purchasing power wise it needs to be cheaper still but this is better then nothing

[rancid juniper]

👍

[rancid juniper]

Thermalright and their cooler army

[bitter ridge]

I personally can pay the same as US folks and be fine but most of the country can't

[nocturne flicker]

Not cooler than my army

[worn night]

HELL NAW

[rancid juniper]

Bro's army is armoury crate

[nocturne flicker]

How dare

Just for that I'm not sharing my not licorice

[rancid juniper]

Aw man

[nocturne flicker]

You coulda had that

[bitter ridge]

Sad that apparently due to licensing issues this car is not in modern Need for speed and Forzas

[worn night]

what is the highest overclock someone has done a benchmark with on a B580?
like core vram clock

Im having trouble finding a legit source besides my own

[opaque sedge]

Why not check 3dmark leaderboards?

[worn night]

Pffft if I do that then i'm at the top

Wheres my guinness award

[void pendant]

nah just tryna see how bad my friend got scammed lmfao

[bitter ridge]

You can't judge that based on mere specs alone since laptops also take into account the chassis materials,screens etc

I was looking at that too but went to check it in person and the screen looked tacky so i just got the regular lancool

[nocturne flicker]

Lanuncool

[opaque sedge]

I would get the 217 infinity

The layout allows for extremely easy cable management

[ashen swan]

also

[nocturne flicker]

My cable management is that I manage to get the cables in there enough to close the case

[nocturne flicker]

Which one is the 217 Infinity again?

[heady plinth]

I'm more of the business in the front, sloppy in the back school.

[opaque sedge]

https://lian-li.com/product/lancool-217-inf/

Massive 170 mm intake fans

[nocturne flicker]

I'm more of the coated in a thick layer of dust school

[nocturne flicker]

Ah

[opaque sedge]

And a unique design too

Much better than fishtanks imo

[nocturne flicker]

The in built finger saws

[heady plinth]

It's a regular 217 ruined with gamer lights and glass.

[nocturne flicker]

https://tenor.com/view/fnb-get-this-man-a-true-gif-25257480

[opaque sedge]

It has built in clips in the back to manage the cpu power cable

[heady plinth]

For a fishtank argb one I like the v100r better.

[opaque sedge]

It should be a really easy case to build in

Does wegg have a student discount

[ashen swan]

Seconding this

[opaque sedge]

If i could get a studeng discount on this

…

[misty sparrow]

Does it even stack with the $100 off?

[opaque sedge]

My double rewards period on my cc is up too

[bitter ridge]

People have bad attention span and I wonder how many people didn't read promo part and checked out without applying it

[unreal trail]

bruh

[opaque sedge]

Oh wait looks like this ips comes with re9 too

I should put in deals ngl

[worn night]

whoa bro

[worn night]

holy deal

[acoustic palm]

Omg

I might actually get a free monitor???

[worn night]

You got some monitor in that game ur buying

[robust night]

question <@&525119001324683264> or anyone with familiar with steelseries gg have u ever heard of it causing driver issues ?

[robust night]

my 5070 does im hyped

[opaque sedge]

Nope doesn’t look like it does since the 100 dolla one is a code based discount too

The other ips one qualifies for a student discount but its only 5%

Will only cover tax

Barely
