[opaque sedge]

Btw are resident evil games best played with controller or keyboard?

[rancid juniper]

really up to you

[iron finch]

its not yakuza so keyboard

'

[nocturne flicker]

Yukuza

[elfin mural]

I use a keyboard to play yakuza like a fake yakuza

[deep parcel]

Same but only for like a dragon

[misty sparrow]

the standard edition is $70 lmao

[rancid juniper]

Heh

[misty sparrow]

really wanna know if this game runs on deck

[elfin mural]

new AAA pricing standard

[misty sparrow]

they apparently cooked w/ this game judging off metacritic scores so im really intrigued

just have to avoid spoilers somehow

[elfin mural]

a 5060 gets like a lot of fps on low settings

so it runs good too

[rancid juniper]

Apparently performance (excluding rt/pt) is very good

Saw a couple benchmarks, I smiled

[elfin mural]

5060ti 16gb can easily run rt

1080p native

with dlaa

[rancid juniper]

Not bad

[misty sparrow]

-# i wonder if they are going to pull off some wizardry to get this thing running on the iPhone A17 chip or later

[rancid juniper]

If the game ever gets below $40 I'll get it

They'll eventually drop dlc as well so maybe it's best to wait for the complete package

[elfin mural]

watch em make it run on the a18 pro macbook that's coming out in march

[rancid juniper]

Mac gaming is something I still can't believe exists

[elfin mural]

apple neglects it

[misty sparrow]

huh what?

[elfin mural]

yeah

[misty sparrow]

macbook running on an iphone chip?

is this real

[elfin mural]

apple is releasing an iphone chip based macbook as a "budget" option

[misty sparrow]

i wonder what the price will be

[elfin mural]

the rumors have been cooking up for quite a while

[rancid juniper]

I mean it kinda makes sense in terms of pure batt life

[misty sparrow]

and how it stacks up to the M1/M2 chips

[elfin mural]

and tbh M1 is pretty op for most mac users lol

A18 pro should do well

[rancid juniper]

Yea

[misty sparrow]

because if this thing is gonna retail at like $500 im gonna pass

probably could get M1 macbook at that price or less

[elfin mural]

it's probably gonna be 600-700

unfortunately

[misty sparrow]

take away the zeros and what do you have left

[elfin mural]

oh god

[misty sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/per1dot-gif-21622869

[rancid juniper]

Stronk M1 ultra vs the newbie M5

[elfin mural]

Apparently it's faster than the M1 in ipads

If not, then it's similar

[rancid juniper]

Whoa

[elfin mural]

https://nanoreview.net/en/soc-compare/apple-m1-ipad-vs-apple-a18-pro

Battery life is surely gonna be stellar at least

[misty sparrow]

it always is with apple chips

[queen briar]

motorolla or m1?

[elfin mural]

apple silicon

aka any m-series or later a-series

[cursive oasis]

is it me or are these apples huge

[tropic relic]

https://buildcores.com/builds/ZWX7Y2UF6?share=true

what would you guys buy this pc at, it was 3 years old, used

i removed any parts i wouldnt be considering in the sale

[worn night]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/xhJdINNqzRE

Transformers one megatron sounds like kratos

[velvet summit]

3 years... Maybe around 800-900 would be my wild guess without current used market research

[dusk knot]

Max graphics?

[cursive oasis]

Yea

[nocturne flicker]

Max apples?

Also those apples are in fact huge

Devs never seen an apple in real life smh

[lone mango]

This man is at the top end and acts like he is on cl36 6000

Your imc can go over 6000, that is great

[proud jackal]

dyanic refresh rate makes my screen flash

[tropic relic]

see im thinking about getting it factory reset and cleaned, and then im gonna try to sell it on facebook marketplace or ebay but im trying to figure out how much i should put it up for

it has no damage, windows 11 is installed, its overclocked with an undervolted 6750xt

maintained, etc

im just planning to upgrade to DDR5 and 9070xt and that basically means I have to build an entirely new PC

[elfin mural]

i'd probably list it for 950 with room for lowballing and negotiation

[tropic relic]

only things that can transfer over is SSD, CPU, and GPU and since im upgrading my GPU already, it feels like I should just leave the PC alone and sell it as a prebuilt, ready to play tower

[tropic relic]

okay

[queen briar]

have you never seen new york?

its literally the big apple

[tropic relic]

it feels really high for me, i know my pc is worth a lot, i spend a lot of money to build it, but ive seen some low-mid tier pcs that can run quite a lot for as little as 300

trying to understand the market

[queen briar]

this was true in like 2018.

[elfin mural]

the market is currently in its expensive phase, so you can get away with 800-900

[queen briar]

mmmm back when the 1080ti was king and was only $800

[elfin mural]

as in, what the pc is worth

[tropic relic]

my friend just bought a PC that can run Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora on benchmarked optimized settings at 60 fps

for 300 bucks

I dont remember the specs

[tropic relic]

okay i will try to list it there and be open to negotiating

i just need to clean it again and i might try to take it apart to figure out the RGB fans

i have 3 120mm fans and 3 140mm fans iirc

[charred shadow]

I need a new Dell Inspiron 7706 2in1 Motherboard i7-1165G7 2.8GHz Nvidia MX350 DDR4 P47D9. I wanted to upgrade it but I don't think that is possible. What is the best price.

[elfin mural]

2in1's can't be upgraded, yeah

you can only add ram and storage

[tropic relic]

but since they are different brands, when i set it up, the top 2 and rear from the same brand work fine, but the 140mm dont work at all rn or have 1 white color

so it doesnt look pretty in that way

[elfin mural]

hmm, that kinda complicates things

it wouldn't change the price too much though

as long as the rig looks clean and presentable, it should sell

[tropic relic]

all the fans work

they work great

its just the color

the pc has great airflow and low temps even when under heavy stress

[queen briar]

as a used tech?

[tropic relic]

when i clean it, will probably drop even lower in temps

[tropic relic]

it was off fb marketplace used

[queen briar]

hmm. yea that tracks for people selling lower than what its worth.

is 60 fps even the benchmark for PCs still?

[tropic relic]

i mean

for what

triple A?

yes

[queen briar]

i thought we moved to 90.

[tropic relic]

Doesn't matter if you have a 9070xt or a 3050

a lot of games are badly optimised

i feel like with towers, atleast 40% of your fps is probably just tweaking and optimization

[tropic relic]

i either sit at 60 or 120

just depends on your monitor and pc specs

the jump from 60 to 120 is massive though for a lot of games

like battle field 6 you could probably optimize your settings and get a somewhat steady 60 fps with a 3050

a 6750xt could probably run 120 if its optimized

9070xt, if not bottlenecking could probably achieve 240 if its opimized

3050s are like 200$ probably, 6750s are 300-400$

9070s are 600-700$

it checks out though, double the fps, probably nearly double the price of the gpu

[sand hill]

ok just to make sure but this is the parts i'm getting and keep in mind this is what i refer

and i wanna know about this which i'm guessing it's require a liquid cooler thing? what about the air cooler? (quite obvious it's that)

[charred shadow]

My light on the keyboard will keep flashing white. I have tested the components and it still flashes white.

[random osprey]

should be fine with a decent air cooler but that aio is free so might as well use that unless you want to buy a like a $40-$80 air cooler and sell the aio for some extra money

oop just noticed you sent a air cooler

still stands

[sand hill]

wait that ryzen 5 9600x i show can work with aircooler? and yeah

please i need an honest answer before i bought them

[random osprey]

id suggest just using the free aio

[sand hill]

which i guess that free item i'm seeing? honestly i don't know about liquid cooler cause i want to know about them

[random osprey]

also unless you need the storage, id suggest going lower storage on the 990 or just swap it completely for a cheaper nvme and use the extra money for better ram if its in budget

[random osprey]

aio is fine

[sand hill]

hang on i need on that but what's aio?

[random osprey]

all in one cooler, or all in one liquid cooler as its in the description

this one

[sand hill]

i see and i fear no air cooler yeah?

plus i don't know about liquid cooler cause i hear that can be expensive to replace and all and maybe difficult?

[random osprey]

depends on the cooler it can be expensive to replace since some can go into the hundreds but they should last you a decent while. difficult? not really unless you mean difficult to install then that kinda, it depends on what case youre putting it in

[sand hill]

christ...... and one more time on air cooler but it can work for ryzen yes? or.....depends?

[random osprey]

the one you sent specifically, yes. so long as the air cooler has the brackets to mount and also if its able to cool it enough

[weak cedar]

mine latest almost 5 years on a recall I didn't know about 4 years ago

[sand hill]

hold up....bracket? like these i found?

(if not send me what it look like)

[random osprey]

in the boxes of the cooler, theyll provide a mounting bracket which attaches to here. theyll be different depending on motherboard and the kind of bracket it requires

[random osprey]

these are what attaches to the cooler, these are the brackets im talking about

[sand hill]

wait i think i seen those and should ask these again, as long they got bracket and all then i'll be fine

[weak cedar]

O sorry

[random osprey]

so long as theyre compatible with the motherboard

[sand hill]

the b650? already ask and they said yes but since you said that, i better double ask just in case and better safe than sorry

[sand hill]

and no it;s fine that;s the bracket he's talking about yes?

[random osprey]

ye, they are

[sand hill]

i think one of them have them but ain't sure so i'll better ask on that

[weak cedar]

I just replaced mine today

[sand hill]

gotcha, thanks for the help and i can't wait to get one soon

[weak cedar]

better?

[sand hill]

ok obviously that's where the bracket goes right? and.....it can work on this yes? (sending it again)

[queen briar]

derp

[lethal jasper]

How can i find if i have missing drivers

[dense locust]

Check in device manager

Should show yellow exclamation point

[tranquil pebble]

found one of my old phones, a Galaxy Note 8. It needs a new USB port, but it is charging wirelessly and showing signs of life, so I might get it fixed.

[elfin mural]

apparently the exynos 2600 in the global s26/26+ is faster by a huge margin in gpu power compared to the snapdragon 8 elite gen 5 in s26 ultra

got that rdna4 gpu backing it up lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgNG9_lYkaQ

[tranquil pebble]

Radeon phone 🔥

[ashen swan]

What are things that use PCIE X4

[elfin mural]

ssds

wifi cards

or really anything you wish to use pcie with

[tranquil pebble]

modems too (for cellular)

[elfin mural]

not everything that runs on the pcie interface needs a lot of bandwidth

[ashen swan]

so no capture cards

[elfin mural]

i bet capture cards can run even on x1

[tranquil pebble]

capture cards can run on USB 3, so PCIe x4 should be no problem

[elfin mural]

they just capture and output stuff

[tranquil pebble]

Assuming you are not stuck somehow at PCIe 1.0 for some reason

[elfin mural]

pcie 3.0 with just 4 lanes enabled gives you about 4 gigabytes per second of bandwidth

[ashen swan]

I’m going for a B860M live mixer

Which has PCIE4X4

For the bottom slot at least

[tranquil pebble]

honestly, PCIe above 4 right now seems pretty useless

and expensive

[ashen swan]

Yes

[tranquil pebble]

its good that it is out there though, just not needed right now

Same thing happened with 4.0

[elfin mural]

even running a 5090 at pcie 4.0 with 16 lanes only limits it by 1%

[tranquil pebble]

and that would be assuming that is your bottleneck, which probably would not be

[elfin mural]

4% performance loss at 3.0 x16

[ashen swan]

Oh wait

Nvm

USB card

[tranquil pebble]

wonder what the performance loss would be at PCIe 1 x1

[elfin mural]

would certainly be severe lmao

funnily enough at 4k the 5090 retains 84% of its full perf at x16 1.1

[tranquil pebble]

or 5090 over USB 1.x

might be choked to the point of not working lol

[elfin mural]

pcie version over 4.0 seems to be utterly useless unless you run very high end hardware

[deep parcel]

im doing pcie gen 5 because funny also x8 because of my extra ssds

[tranquil pebble]

gen 5 x8 is equal to gen 4 x16 so you are fine

[deep parcel]

yea

[ashen swan]

what 😭

[elfin mural]

is the reason samsung still puts qualcomm into the s26 ultra because so it would appeal to more people?

exynos was known to be trash

but now it isn't anymore

[tranquil pebble]

A PCIe 5 lane has 2x bandwidth as a single PCIe 4 lane

[elfin mural]

each generation of pcie has double the bandwidth of the prior pcie generation it replaces

that's why you get these numbers

pcie 3.0 at x16 has as much bandwidth as pcie 4.0 at x8 and so on

[opaque sedge]

So moore’s law isnt dead for bandwidth yet?

[tranquil pebble]

Put another way, the higher the PCIe version, the less lanes you need for the same bandwidth

[tranquil pebble]

irrelevant, that had to do with transistors

[elfin mural]

bandwidth keeps doubling since the pci-sig standard demands double bandwidth with every release

[opaque sedge]

Hmm actually i’m dumb moore’s law has to do specifically with amt of transistors

[elfin mural]

it's just engineering within the rules

wait

pcie is pci-sig, not jedec

my brain is not braining

lol

[tranquil pebble]

yeah jedec does ram

[opaque sedge]

Ram?

[elfin mural]

but ram also follows a similar principle in terms of bandwidth goal

[opaque sedge]

How abt I ram d

[elfin mural]

double the mt/s

slowest ddr4 was like 1600? i believe

slowest ddr5 is 3200

ah it's actually 4000 for ddr5

but ddr4 is indeed 1600

[tranquil pebble]

I assume you mean MT/s

[elfin mural]

yeah

i looked up jedec specs

[random osprey]

@rancid juniper finished the tutorial then got hit with a broccoli error code at the main menu. thus far though the performance seems slightly better than during the playtest i played in

[tranquil pebble]

I run DDR5 5600 JEDEC spec, which I upgraded from 3200 DDR4 JEDEC

[random osprey]

broccoli is graphics failure, need to update windows, disable game mode or update graphics driver. guess im updating graphics

nvm, i already have the latest driver

[tacit geode]

so gen 5 at 8x doesnt matter much?

[elfin mural]

yep

[tacit geode]

damn

i went throuhg this whole crap show just to fix it

[elfin mural]

you can safely run gen 5 at 8 lanes without losing meaningful perf

if at all if you don't run a 5090

[tacit geode]

i like how gpuz says no physx

XD

[rancid juniper]

GPU doesn't like vegetables

[elfin mural]

physx got re-enabled in later driver release iirc

still funny that gpu-z doesn't add it back

[tacit geode]

wait

it was disabled?

[craggy shoal]

When did it get reenabled?

[elfin mural]

nvidia decided to release a driver that re-enabled physx

and yes, nvidia dropped physx at launch of 50 series

https://www.techpowerup.com/343671/nvidia-restores-physx-support-for-select-32-bit-games-on-geforce-rtx-50-series-gpus

[tacit geode]

so tf it would break old games?

[elfin mural]

this happened in december 2025

[rancid juniper]

Making performance of 50 series run terribly as it relied on the CPU I'm pretty sure

[tacit geode]

if they decided to drop it? perma

[elfin mural]

it didn't break old games, it just moved to cpu-based physx

[opaque sedge]

I think in the 58x driver branch

[elfin mural]

it tanked performance like hell

[tacit geode]

ah yeah

[elfin mural]

but then nvidia randomly decided they wanted to reinstate physx support

the selection is limited though

so nvidia is likely converting 32-bit physx libraries to 64-bit

50 series runs on the new version of cuda that lacks 32-bit support

[random osprey]

dont think imma be able to do benchmark cause either rivatuner is having a fit

like none of the fps values were changing even after restarting

[rancid juniper]

Doing everything they can to prevent you from playing the game, wild stuff

[frigid stag]

It was a huge L move for people who play older games

Plus getting rid of hotspot sensor

[random osprey]

just constant 170 fps, itd only change by 1 either up or down

worked during tutorial, but actual game it didnt want to

bright side though, they arent pulling a highguard

from tutorial

everything is set to the highest possible, dlss on with dlaa as the preset, motion blur off

unless i am blind, bloom is not an option to turn off, why bungo

[dusk knot]

What’s your thoughts on the gameplay, wolf? Is it satisfying?

[unreal trail]

[random osprey]

i think i have to redo my monitoring settings or something, idk why it didnt work

[random osprey]

firstly just want to say as someone who has played during one of the playtests, bungo needs to freaking fire whoever redesigned the menu ui, shit is ass

the playtest one was better and made more sense

[dusk knot]

Lmao

[random osprey]

why the hell do i access my inventory with a small button in the bottom left?

[dusk knot]

Too much info on the screen and look alike items at first glance. I just smack down whatever I find

[dusk knot]

Oh

So they made it worst….i have a tick to play the game again today

[random osprey]

the pre-order was added and itll go away when released, but it was more like this during the playtest which, imo, is better and easier to access instead of clicking the bottom left (yes i know theres keybinds but why would i want to reach for a keybind when im clicking stuff on the left anyways?)

actually just realized there was a season pass as well just above shop

[random osprey]

also to answer this, they a bit of what i disliked in the playtest, but theres still some problems that hopefully they fix unless theres a setting i have to change

gunplay, i havent gotten to use enough to see if theyre the same as the playtest but theyre good so far but some seem to be slightly projectile based or if they are all hit scan, then its not hitting where you are aiming if you are moving if that makes sense

or if bloom is just wack

between these two images, which one do you think hit the target?

hint: its not the first image

[craggy shoal]

What's y'all's sentiment on this game?

I immediately got a bad vibe as soon as I heard about it. What are y'all's thoughts?

[random osprey]

i personally wish it was single player instead of a extraction shooter, but aside from that, im going in super cautiously cause its bungo and ive had experience with destiny 2 which ive had a bad experience with

but im also hoping its decent or good enough. as much as i hate bungo, i do want them to turn things around but also i dont have much faith cause they took so long to do stuff in destiny 2

still no apology for removing base game and dlc

[craggy shoal]

I still remember when I went back to Destiny and I was confused because the story was gone lol

[random osprey]

i will say though, marathon is probably gonna be the most sweaty extraction shooter between arc raiders, tarkov and whatever shooters are out there assuming the destiny 2 pvp community stays on marathon

d2 pvp community is the most jobless, sweatiest, toxic people out there

if they go back to destiny though, itll probably be like tarkov level sweat which isnt super crazy

[dusk knot]

Games alright. I really don’t like the idea of extraction as you have the potential to to lose everything

[robust night]

has anyone had previous experience with steelseries gg causing driver issues making your pc reboot itself?

[random osprey]

werent you on arc raiders a lot?

[craggy shoal]

lol I didn't even know it's an extraction shooter. I still have yet to play an extraction shooter lol

My brother is sharing his Steam library, and he has Arc Raiders. I have yet to play it though lol. Still waiting for my friends to buy it

[craggy shoal]

I use SS GG, but no issues here. What kind of driver issues? I mainly use GG for Sonar (and sometimes Moments when I'm playing BF6 with my friends)

Based on your name, are you actually still on an RX 480? Not trying to call you out, but that might potentially be an issue (given that GPU's age) if you're using Moments

[robust night]

yes I am LOL but not the issue hahaha

[craggy shoal]

I'm curious. 9600X and 32GB, so why the 480?

[dusk knot]

No? I only have 2 hours on the game. I don’t like it

[tacit geode]

i sshould do more 3dmark

[craggy shoal]

I should have a full-time job

[tacit geode]

I have a semi remote full time job

itss nice

[craggy shoal]

That's what I want

[tacit geode]

it sucks somtimes since i have to drive 4hrs once a month

one way

[craggy shoal]

4-hour driver, for a multi-day trip, or just to do a simple task and then leave?

I would say that would make a fun road trip if you brought your wife (I forgot... you're married, right?)

[random osprey]

you def will not like marathon then especially if the d2 pvp community starts to sweat in it

[robust night]

sold my old gpu

[craggy shoal]

RX 480 is the backup GPU?

[robust night]

assumed it had issues when I sold it but turns out it may be a driver issue from steelseriesgg

correct

[craggy shoal]

Got it

[robust night]

cheapest local option ahaha

I kept having random reboots for months and Im starting to think it was a application issue

and quite possibly was steelseriesgg drivers

event viewer only said kernal power

[jagged sorrel]

7700 and 64gb of ddr5 lmaoooo

im rich

🤣

[craggy shoal]

Don't be too cocky lmao

[jagged sorrel]

thats ddr4💀

[robust night]

some people said it was my ram but I ran every memory test possible and no errors at all

so thinking it's a driver issue

[jagged sorrel]

plus im 99 percent sure that photos from google

[craggy shoal]

I'd try using Revo Uninstaller to uninstall SS GG, restart, and then use DDU (restart again, obviously), and then reinstall your GPU's drivers (and then restart again obviously), and then install SS GG (probably don't have to restart after this tbh)

If that doesn't work, I'd imagine a Windows reinstall would help because your PC shouldn't be restarting on its own regardless

[robust night]

I reinstalled windows and made sure I installed no 3rd party apps till I see if it does it again

[craggy shoal]

It probably still totals more than 64GB in DDR5. And no, it's not from Google Photos. It's a tray that I 3D printed and I have most of my unused RAM in there lolll

[robust night]

I even switched windows to my other ssd just incase it was dying even tho crystal disk info said health was good

[jagged sorrel]

how much is each stick ddr4

youd need exactly at least 153.7gb to beat me

since ddr5 is about 2.4 times more expensive

[craggy shoal]

(Calculating the total rn lol)

[jagged sorrel]

a trick to get what can be considered affordable right now for ddr5 anyway is too look on ebay theres 4800mhz cl 40 kits going for like 215 or somin i just sold my old one and bought a faster kit 4 x 16 5600 cl 36 and yes i know 4 sticks is usually unstable but since its not 6000 cl 30 it should be fine

[craggy shoal]

88GB 💀

Halfway there

[jagged sorrel]

so i still win lol🤣

[craggy shoal]

I still have more RAM. 64GB (DDR4) in one of my servers, 32GB (DDR5) in my main PC, 32GB in my gaming laptop (I think DDR4? could be wrong idk), 48GB (DDR4) in another one of my servers, and I think another 32GB (DDR4) in my AI server that's currently not in use

[jagged sorrel]

ok well i have a 32gb 3600mhz cl 18

and a 16gb 3000 mhz

altho i sold them off a week ago

so technicly i dont anymore

[craggy shoal]

264GB total in DDR4 💀

I also have two mini PCs laying around that each have 16GB (DDR4 SODIMM sticks)

[jagged sorrel]

ok well im 14 lmao how much did you have when you were my age

💀

[craggy shoal]

bro is 14

[jagged sorrel]

yes

🤣

i use the ram for work tho not just for flexin

otherwise i wouldve just gotten 7800x3d and 32gb of ddr5

for a little less prob actually

dont have the best camera but feel free to take a look at my build https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ygV09IiV3L_CGpc8jES6S65u85amb3DS/view?usp=sharing

[jagged sorrel]

at least my monitors nice lol

its a 1440p 180hz rapid ips from msi

[opaque sedge]

Based modern phones aint worth it

[jagged sorrel]

[opaque sedge]

Allocate budget towards pc hardware

[jagged sorrel]

[opaque sedge]

If i could turn back time i would buy a used phone and get a 4090

[jagged sorrel]

lmao i spend everything i get on upgrading my pc

[craggy shoal]

If I could turn back I would've just gotten a 5080 or 5070 Ti

[jagged sorrel]

also guess my gpu

[craggy shoal]

This mf gonna say 5080

[jagged sorrel]

im 14 lmao

[craggy shoal]

5060 (8GB)

[jagged sorrel]

im not that dumb

💀

[craggy shoal]

14, so I'm guessing anything Nvidia

[jagged sorrel]

lemme just say its not 50 series

[craggy shoal]

40?

[jagged sorrel]

maybe

maybe not

[craggy shoal]

What GPU?

[jagged sorrel]

its 30 series

not a 3060 btw

[craggy shoal]

This mf gonna say 3090

[jagged sorrel]

not 3090

[craggy shoal]

bruh

Just tell us

[jagged sorrel]

3080 lol

its the best affordable nvidia card for the money

like 320 on ebay

much better performance than 5060

wouldve went with 9060 xt if i had a little extra budget and blender didnt hate amd cards but oh well

[craggy shoal]

Thank you for using Nvidia for what Nvidia is actually for and not just getting it for the sake of "Nvidia better" or getting Nvidia as a default option

[jagged sorrel]

no problemo

16gb of vram woulda reallly helped with my ai work but most of the things just use cudas and have terrible compatibilty for my work

[craggy shoal]

I was going to go Nvidia again because I want to use it for locally-hosted AI. I want to do image generation and LLMs, I have two 6800 XTs for LLMs (using LM Studio), and my 4070 Super is enough for what I'm doing for image generation

[jagged sorrel]

for gaming tho its a beast

[opaque sedge]

what do u use ai for?

[jagged sorrel]

api keys

ollama

also use it to build websites

[craggy shoal]

Just use Ollama or LM Studio (preferably Ollama because it's more documented)

[jagged sorrel]

check this out

https://downtownmobilerepair.com/

i built this for a real buisness

it has n8n scheduling and sms apis and sends emails when you schedule

and i hosted it on a linux vps

[opaque sedge]

what can ollama be used for?

[opaque sedge]

goddamn

[jagged sorrel]

it can be used to host ai models on your pc ofline using your gpu and ram

or u can use api keys with it so like a question bot on a website for example it connects to your pc and gets answers from there

and many other things

[craggy shoal]

LLMs. I'd use your 5080 for the LLMs and the 4070 Super for image generation (image generation is surprisingly easy to run if you're patient enough)

[opaque sedge]

i need 12 hundies

to make another system with my 4070super

[craggy shoal]

Ahhh gotcha lmao

I forgot you're still basically on your first computer lolll

[opaque sedge]

its the ssd prices man

[craggy shoal]

You need $1200 just for RAM for an AI PC 💀

[jagged sorrel]

i mean i got a 2tb nvme gen 4 lol

fikwot

for 90 buck

[opaque sedge]

and another monitor

legit cant go back to ips after oled

[jagged sorrel]

Lmaoooooo

[craggy shoal]

You don't need a monitor for a server. Just use RDP

[opaque sedge]

where

[elfin mural]

it should be on amazon

the brand is unproven tho, so gamble at your own risk

[craggy shoal]

lol none of my servers are connected to a monitor

[jagged sorrel]

well there was a large sale for 65 of them i managed to get one and someone else bought the last

[opaque sedge]

TELL ME WHERE

[opaque sedge]

AH SHIT

[jagged sorrel]

it was on ebay

its actually suprisingly reliable

i alr filled up more than 1tb

[opaque sedge]

i would legit snag a 2tb for 200 rn

[jagged sorrel]

also it was new in box

[elfin mural]

qc can be questionable and customer service can be useless if you happen to get a doa

[jagged sorrel]

litterly it was like 3 months ago

[opaque sedge]

maybe i should just sacrfice my 1tb secondary drive

its a wd blue sn580

[jagged sorrel]

lemme see if i can find another one simaler

[velvet summit]

my drive is kinda full

[opaque sedge]

but then again if i get components for a new system i would prolly put my 5080 with the new comps

and slap my 4070super back into the "old" ones

[opaque sedge]

IS IT FULL OF

[craggy shoal]

I'm so glad I got a DAS for one of my servers before the memory crisis 💀 (using hard drives lol)

[elfin mural]

that's a 980

not even a pro

oh wait the 2tb option is

so weird that they group it all together

[opaque sedge]

wait can i do some weird shit with that by having the remote desktop connected to peripherals in another room?

like a printer?

[velvet summit]

oh i havent emptied my recycle bin in a while

there's 91 gigs in the bin

💀

[opaque sedge]

i could just grab a 2tb drive for 250 from micro

[craggy shoal]

Remote Desktop Protocol. You can use your main PC to remotely control your server

[velvet summit]

no longer redlining

[elfin mural]

the os drive term is a loosely applied term lol

i do install games on it

rdp is only nice if you're there in person

[craggy shoal]

Super nice tbh

[jagged sorrel]

only 1 btw so someones gonna snatch real fast

[velvet summit]

if your system freezes, you cant recover the server without someone there to press the power buttons

having an IPMI or ipkvm is so much nicer

[elfin mural]

a friendly tip, you can clean up your links by deleting everything after the question mark

[opaque sedge]

https://sp-siliconpower.com/products/silicon-power-ud90-2tb-pcie-nvme-gen4x4-m-2-2280-internal-solid-state-drive? is this a decent drive?

cheapest one rn

[elfin mural]

i run an mp33 and i have no qualms

that one's gen 4 so it should be fine

[craggy shoal]

I agree. I have a PiKVM on one of my servers because it runs Windows and sometimes has that "Setup Windows" screen or whatever when it reboots after an update (I've since disabled automatic updates on that server because it's the most annoying thing in the world when you're running Windows on a server)
I've also switched mostly to Proxmox lol

top 10 reasons to use windows as a server

thanks for watching

[craggy shoal]

It was one of my first servers and I've been using it without any issues 💀

[velvet summit]

honestly there's not really any reason to use windows for servers (especially not desktop windows)
windows server at least has ad ds

but there's no reason to have a gui on a server

just wasted resources on something that you'll look at once in a blue moon

[elfin mural]

when will microslop introduce ads to windows server

chase more customers away

[velvet summit]

💀

[elfin mural]

better yet

make copilot automate tasks and mess it all up

make it "accidentally" delete a whole database

[opaque sedge]

btw yall if you guys want an ips 1440 monitor by any chance gigabyte's model comes bundled with re9 for 160

[elfin mural]

re9 monitor

real

[opaque sedge]

and the woled for 500

[opaque sedge]

i would have been tempted for 400 ngl

[velvet summit]

honestly i feel like the only actual usecases of window server that are actively being used in companies would be for the feature i mentioned earlier (ad ds) and virtual desktop

microsoft basically made microtransactions for windows with that ong

[elfin mural]

i used to contact microsoft for help when i was a child and they literally helped me thru remote desktop

it felt sketchy ngl

[velvet summit]

you need CALs for the multi user windows server

[elfin mural]

but i indeed waited in line for an agent to chat with me

lmao

[velvet summit]

💀

they wouldnt have even been able to do that

[elfin mural]

they were, believe it or not

it was an actual microsoft agent

[velvet summit]

my internet speeds back then were atrocious

oh i meant for me

[elfin mural]

ah

was it dial-up era

well according to my child brain

[velvet summit]

[elfin mural]

now i find flash games cool again

feeling nostalgic about em again

lmao

[velvet summit]

lmao

[opaque sedge]

Some of em were like really stupid tbh

[velvet summit]

there were definitely some silly ones

[elfin mural]

some were iconic

they still linger in my mind

their names i barely remember, but i remember the gameplay

[velvet summit]

i can hear the papa's game music in my head

[elfin mural]

looks to be a good year for maple syrup farmers this year

still snow around

if it sticks around for at least 15 more days we should have good amount of syrup

(snow is an indicator, but a factor that affects production is warmer days and freezing nights)

[icy ore]

https://tenor.com/view/maple-syrup-syrup-chug-gif-13638315

[velvet summit]

Optimal conditions require freezing nights and above-freezing days. Poor weather can significantly reduce sap flow.

this coming week meets that criteria

[elfin mural]

2026 is giving me some hope with gaming tbh

im surprised that a 3050 6 gigs can run re9 so well

lol

native 1080p at that

[velvet summit]

i dont think re games had much issues with performance, i'm not sure if i'd put my hopes up too high for most other games

[elfin mural]

yeah

none of em had issues with perf

[velvet summit]

a normal thing to do

[elfin mural]

as long as you have a relatively modern card

Only dragons dogma 2 and monster hunter milds did

[cobalt shuttle]

anyone might be able to help diagnose a problem im having pc loves shutting down entirely when it gets into a game some games it does some it doesnt but every shuts down exept a couple lights in the case and i have to powercycle for it to reboot

[rancid juniper]

Sounds like a PSU issue or maybe a component got too hot and had to shut the PC down

[queen briar]

derp

[cobalt shuttle]

thats what i thought i was getting somewhat hot cpu temps so i put a 3 fan aio on it and still same problems im thing my 700w psu is a lil under powered for the pc

[queen briar]

idky i thought you were a techie

[rancid juniper]

Nope

[queen briar]

hmm

i wonder if any of the techies can read event codes

[rancid juniper]

From event viewer?

[queen briar]

yea

other than guessing, thats another option to look for for unexaplined shutdowns.

[rancid juniper]

Do you have an fps overlay?

You can check stats like CPU/gpu temps

MSI afterburner, steam's overlay, Nvidia app overlay can do

[cobalt shuttle]

overlay isnt set but i can pull up adrenilin on my 2nd

[rancid juniper]

Do that please

Also what is your computer specs? Especially your PSU model

[cobalt shuttle]

not sure on the psu besides 700w and msi

[queen briar]

what software are you using that it doesnt know your memory

[tacit geode]

Speccy

It's shit

Hwinfo way better

[queen briar]

this dude got me going down a rabbit hole

now im angry

[robust night]

I can agree

speccy is all over the place

doesnt know what cpu Im using lmao

[queen briar]

much better

[tacit geode]

Hess

[cobalt shuttle]

took the recommendation and ditch speccy lol

[queen briar]

its a blessing

[cobalt shuttle]

you think 700w is enough

[queen briar]

generally, yes

In your case, id say no.

your 7900xt is pully 300w alone.

[cobalt shuttle]

yea upwards of 300

[queen briar]

and your processor is 105w

with those 2 componenets, your already at 430-450w. your motherboard is like 40w.

[robust night]

i got overkill psu lol for my setup

1000 watt xd

[cobalt shuttle]

think im gona go grab a 850

[queen briar]

• laughs in 1650w *

[queen briar]

grab a 1000w

[robust night]

lmfao

[queen briar]

that hsould be the standard in any PC.

[robust night]

basically same price

I paid less for my 1000 watt then I did for the 850 I had

[queen briar]

hmmm give or take. youd save what, $30-50 at most

[robust night]

paid 250 for a 850 watt I had and paid 200 for my 1000 watt

the 1000 watt had way better features too which is odd

[queen briar]

i piad less for this 1300w then i did on a 1000w

[robust night]

my 5070 should be arriving next week

it left quebec this morning so hopefully I get another update by end of day or tomorrow

Ok i think ngreedia def used AI to write that page because the bold text for re9 specifies ray reconstruction as a feature while crimson desert doesn’t

By re remakes i meant resident evil remakes from capcom

[queen briar]

we only acknowledge 2.

the other 2 were mid

[queen briar]

im actually excited for the R3make remake

That was bussin

Amd basically paid off capcom to implement subpar ray tracing in the re remakes games and no dlss support to make rdna cards look more impressive

[queen briar]

im super excited for act 3

[obtuse pike]

yep, kinda curious

but

i will not watch the og ff7 just to prevent spoilers

[tranquil pebble]

1. Find a game that has a benchmark feature
2. Run the game.
3. Find the benchmark feature.

[obtuse pike]

did finished rebirth aswell

[queen briar]

uh, tbh

im excited for act 3

[sharp charm]

Alr makes enough sense

[queen briar]

but like... they basically neded the game

in a non-spoiler way

[obtuse pike]

yep, but see what happened to rebirth aswell

they changed his betrayal part to something that is reputable to the players

cait sith one

[queen briar]

rebirth was way too long

[obtuse pike]

took me like 2 days to finish 😭

even if its 14 parts each one takes like 2-3 hours avg, except 13

[queen briar]

i mean i cant spil it but... nothing has changhed lol

[proud jackal]

[obtuse pike]

to the og ff7?

[tranquil pebble]

Cait Sith FF13 lol

[queen briar]

a lot of the changes were side stories and quest.

[obtuse pike]

yup lots

i dont really like ff16's story

so i refunded it lol

i hope the disc 3 remake gonna release in 2027, the game is just too peak tbh

[queen briar]

i streamed it. took me 120 hours.

[obtuse pike]

long because side quests

but if you go straight to the story itself, it takes 2 days

the irritating part on ff7 are the puzzles itself

like wtf are these developers on

[queen briar]

yea bu tthats the beauty of it

exploring the world

new merc was amazing

[obtuse pike]

titan materia is hard to get but worth it tbh

[queen briar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGvqsgX48JM

[queen briar]

i got every materia excepot gilgamesh

final gilgamesh fight is so bs

[obtuse pike]

for real tho

😭

[queen briar]

the VR zones were hard too

kid + 2 death claws took me 2 ways

alexander and odin fight took me a week

[obtuse pike]

its easy if you have autocast + healing materia

on aerith

[queen briar]

hmmm i didnt

[obtuse pike]

because youtube spoiled aeriths death

i decided to max relationship on tifa

[queen briar]

i had tifa as my pump for abilities. shed spam auto revive and had lots of mana. i gave aerith the debuffers and cloud buffs

[queen briar]

that is the correct path for any player.

barret date is s+ tier, only elites chose it

[obtuse pike]

lets just wait for another playstation state of play

maybe they'll annouince ff7 part 3 remake

[queen briar]

anyone who chooses Yufi needs to go to jail

[obtuse pike]

mm nononoo

worst decision

rather date with cait sith and the homies other than yuffie

[queen briar]

she isnt worst.

her date is actually cool

but like, Tifa is obviously best girl

[obtuse pike]

yup

but other than that

i like the soundtracks so far

[queen briar]

aerith is great buy no

[queen briar]

the cosmo canyon one is the best... omfg where is it

[obtuse pike]

city ig?

no idea

[acoustic palm]

Omg I might be able to convince my dad to not get a MacBook

That’d be peak

[obtuse pike]

welp, time to go back playing re9

[queen briar]

no

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5_bq2aNDXI

i love tifas theme but this was amazing

the soundtrack of ff7 is jsut so good and i love how every theme got like 10 different remixes

[obtuse pike]

kalm's theme is one that i like the most tbh

[acoustic palm]

@velvet summit ever just read a manhwa and understand absolutely nothing but it’s still enjoyable

[queen briar]

tifa date remix

her theme is the only one i 100%'d

[acoustic palm]

The face are funny but I have 0 clue what’s happening

[queen briar]

theres a disney theme to it as well and it makes me so giddy

[obtuse pike]

uh oh

re9 crashed

[queen briar]

this was great to master. even the piano mini games had different themes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4fMy5-VP6g

[velvet summit]

wait lmao

[velvet summit]

lmao

[acoustic palm]

Well it’s a manhua

[queen briar]

but why did 7 eat 9

[acoustic palm]

So like idk any of the names

They’re confusing

[velvet summit]

7 is evil

[acoustic palm]

Cause 7 8 9

That’s how 711 exists

[queen briar]

no, cause 9 is 3 squared meals.

[velvet summit]

🧐

[queen briar]

youre suppose to eat 3 squared meals a day.

[acoustic palm]

Sandwich

[tranquil pebble]

[queen briar]

[velvet summit]

[velvet summit]

looking at microsoft learn, wmic has been depreciated since windows 10 21h1
the best alternative to get hw temps from powershell is by using openhardwaremonitor it looks like

i'm not 100% sure if it fully supports modern stuff since the last update was from 2020

looks like there's another software that can do it that was last update 2 weeks ago called librehardwaremonitor

[queen briar]

i have powershell 5.1

im working on the code right now though

right now im trying to format a table but give me the page size in GBs, not bits

[dusk knot]

alright.....might have to uninstall marathon

[opaque sedge]
