[queen briar]

Dude

i was talkign to my co worker baout gamign shit and he wasl ike " i got so many tuff " and he goes to weird shops to find stuff.

he bought a FF11 PS2 edition with the hard drive

other than the retail box being open, all the stuff inside is factory sealed

so like i was telling him ive always wanted a gameshark or the gameboy printer. if he finds one, let me know and ill come down to get it

he came back today with a gameshark form his collection..

hes like the coolest dude ever. super quiet but hes a walking museum

before his shift he had to pick up his handheld console from the shop that was being repaired. he wasl ike " i paid $100 just to repair the thing " i was like, its prob a switch or a gameboy.

[elfin mural]

game haxor device

[queen briar]

nah dude, he brought out a Game Gear

i was nerding out with him

i asked him if he ever comes across a turboGRX, please let me know

dude was like "... i think i got one gimmie a few days "

dude was like " i checked both ym sotrages here... i think its in my unit in hawaii "

[unborn wind]

Bro someone’s selling ddr5 16gb 6000mhz 70usd per stick 6 available

Brand new sealed unused sadly CL46-48-48-96

[queen briar]

sounds fake.

good luck with that.

[unborn wind]

wdym

how is it fake

[queen briar]

[unborn wind]

Manufactured 2022

[bitter ridge]

Well buy it Asap because a deal like this won't last

[elfin mural]

ah chinese ram

but that's a good deal for these times

2022 manufacturing date is odd, probably some hoarded memory lol

[unborn wind]

W build

[wary fjord]

[elfin mural]

microslop updated the copilot app

now it consumes more ram, and has turned into a full web app

where did the promise to reduce web apps go??

[unborn wind]

Guys my bios is F3 latest is F40a do I need install all the bios updates or just latest for gigabyte b650m gaming wifi matx

[elfin mural]

bios updates are not required for 99% of the times

unless there's a security vulnerability patch or performance improvements

[unborn wind]

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B650M-GAMING-WIFI-rev-15/support#Support-Bios

I’m on F3

I think it’s correct bios

[elfin mural]

yeah

that's probably a serial number with some lot number

i wouldn't post that online

[unborn wind]

Ai says it’s manufacture number

It’s only shown on my board on sticker

[velvet summit]

Serial number would be a manufacturer number

It would be a number specifically to your unit though

[unborn wind]

Should I swap my ps5 disk 1tb brand new condition 1 month use for 64gb ddr5?

[velvet summit]

It's worth that much???

Also its not brand new condition if you've used it for a month

[bitter ridge]

Feels like a loss on your part

[velvet summit]

It would be like new

[unborn wind]

Well it is brand new condition

Barley used

Under 48 hours of usage i would say

Eh maybe lol more

Lil

The ram is 6000mhz CL30

[bitter ridge]

If you already have ram I would sell the ps5 during gta 6 launch week

[unborn wind]

My rams trash

[bitter ridge]

That is assuming you don't want to play gta 6

[unborn wind]

Cl46 32gb stick

I heard it affects my performance by 15%

5070 + 9600x

That’s terrible asf

[velvet summit]

Brand new condition means sealed in box never opened

[unborn wind]

Not always

[bitter ridge]

Cl doesn't even matter much for ddr5

Build zoid had a video on it let me find it

[unborn wind]

Fr? A dude who sells heaps of ddr5 said it affects me by 15%

By having such slow ram

some people joke how I even run windows with it

[velvet summit]

You've used it for a month, even if you considered opened packages to be brand new, after a month of usage you can't even say it's new

[bitter ridge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgb8N23tsfA

[unborn wind]

It’s new condition

I haven’t used it for a month worth

Not even a weeks worth probs

That’s just how long it was plugged into power but didn’t mean it was on

I used for a month but not months worth of usage

Like hour wise

[bitter ridge]

You have a working 9600x,5070 pc + a ps5

I would just chill and use the pc and wait for gta 6 to play on the ps5

[unborn wind]

Pc can do gta 6

This road here looks quite narrow

[tranquil pebble]

I got the Geiger counter test card. It did exactly as advertised. It even set the alarm off on the Geiger counter. I also found that the radiation from it is quite short range and at a level that is in fact only dangerous if you do stupid things with the card.

Should I go
12900K DDR4 64gb at like
17000 NTD
or
250K Plus 32gbs of DDR5
for 18000 or more

also

Mobo costs are cheapear for 12900K

Usage:
Games, Blender, Still have not found a good photoshop alterative editing

GPU:
Intel B60, Intel B580, A770

OR

12900K with 32gbs of DDR4

For 14000 NTD

[bitter ridge]

All of them seem less than desirable

[ashen swan]

Reminder

@bitter ridge I would like to remind you this is my library

this is my game libary

[safe cape]

yo

wich controller you use for sf6 ?

[ashen swan]

Razers hitbox

I don’t play fighting games often anymore though

[ashen swan]

Please elaborate

[bitter ridge]

12900k with ddr4 you would end up losing a decent chunk of performance and all that investment for a 250k plus only for it to be on a dead platform

[safe cape]

compared to a mechanical keyboard any benefits other than ergonomics ? 🙂

i want to try the keyboard before buying one

[ashen swan]

The layout is just more natural

[ashen swan]

@bitter ridge

My library

I play jrpgs

[tranquil pebble]

RTX 5090 might as well not exist with how much it costs

nice to see the 9800x3d doing that well though

[grand kernel]

dead platform still doesn't matter to most people

and if you need 64gb ram then 12900K with 64gb ddr4 is gonna outperform 250K with 32gb ddr5 lol

[grand kernel]

personally I think you need a 5090 minimum for wallpaper engine

one of the most demanding games out there

[velvet summit]

narrow????

tf you mean

this is like interstate width of lanes

[royal crow]

I can lie down on my road with my arms out and hit both curbs

[velvet summit]

welp

it seems like the thinkpad t16 gen 5 is releasing in april

[queen briar]

puney interstate

[velvet summit]

for each lane?

you could fit 2 cars in a single lane

if anything, this is wider than an interstate lane

[queen briar]

theres only one line down the middle

so only 1 car going both ways

thats a normal street

[velvet summit]

i meant in the one single half of the road you can fit 2 cars in it

this road is wide enough to be a narrow 4 lane road

[queen briar]

yes but theres no lines to indicate 2 cars there

so its a 1 car lane

[velvet summit]

i'm not saying it's for 2 cars
i'm saying it's wide enough for 2 cars in the same lane

[queen briar]

its also not technically an interstate.

interstates are meant for fast travel between destinations

[velvet summit]

bro you're not understanding what i'm saying at all

[queen briar]

theres 2 intersections there

indicating its for low speed traffic

[velvet summit]

im saying this single lane (half of the road) is as wide as a single lane on an interstate highway

[queen briar]

im showing that picture to practical engineering

thats a Stroad at best and its horrible

curse suburban american for ruining our road system

[upper rain]

https://tenor.com/view/obtuse-rubber-goose-green-moose-guava-juice-king-gizzard-and-the-lizard-wizard-gif-12424856068099996817

[worn wave]

I think it's meant to be 2 lanes plus parking on each side, since it's in the city

That being said I've seen some footage of roads outside the city and they still look a bit wide

[dusk knot]

https://youtu.be/1V1Ld3Ej8I0?si=nI1b95jS_nIJQ6xM

Nostalgia!!!!!

[velvet summit]

it probably is for parking but by no means could you say that "road looks quite narrow"

[worn wave]

Oh yeah it's not that narrow lol

[bitter ridge]

Yeah lol the thing majority uses

My thoughts on the "just tune " people probably wouldn't be allowed to say

[bitter ridge]

During the big multiplayer race it won't feel quite as large

[elfin mural]

standards and defaults like xmp exist not to squeeze every bit of perf, but they exist as a set it and forget it thing for people who don't want or have the time to tune every single timing or speed of their hardware

and it's the responsibility of hardware makers to make sure that it's stable out of the box

so yeah, the "just tune" crowd can be a bit out of touch with the reality

no offense intended

[bitter ridge]

Big roads are needed in a racing game to not annoy the player by scraping walls all the time

[worn wave]

Calling what's essentially a 4 car width road too narrow is crazy though

If it was lined with parked cars then yeah it would be a little tight

[velvet summit]

it is expected for a game meant for the mass market but a slight disappointment for people who expected and wanted the more realistic japanese road widths

[bitter ridge]

There should be custom modes where users can create narrow road tracks

[elfin mural]

tbh

i just want good progression

the rest is just guaranteed to be decent anyway

[bitter ridge]

Biggest city in Forza but I think it's still smaller than the city in The crew motorfest

[tranquil pebble]

Meanwhile in BeamNG

Though tbf if you drove IRL like you drive in a video game you WOULD crash lol

[velvet summit]

anybody who drives unskilled enough to scrape the walls all the time probably shouldn't be racing ong

[royal crow]

I use beamng as practice for the real thing

[velvet summit]

imagine racing in beamng's italy map as a forza player

[queen briar]

how come we dont fight anymore

@nocturne flicker come say something so i can disagree with you

[dusk knot]

Hhhmmm

[nocturne flicker]

Something

Pineapple bad

Vinegar based dressings, as a general salad dressing group, are inferior

Thursday is better than Wednesday

[royal crow]

Full size is the only usable keyboard size

[nocturne flicker]

The only good holiday is International Workers' Day

Ham is the superior special dinner meat option, turkey is lame

Spreadable butter is better on toast than normal salted butter

Turkey bacon is okay

Waffles are superior to pancakes

Bologna is only good when it is being thrown away

[nocturne flicker]

Pick

GIF is pronounced GIF not JIF, the person who made GIF is just a moron

[queen briar]

ok i know this is a joke but nah

[queen briar]

the G in GIF is silent

[nocturne flicker]

Actually I generally don't like vinaigrettes

[queen briar]

ok but a lemon poppy seed vinaigrette is good

so it a raspberry basalmic

[nocturne flicker]

Which is odd because I like vinegar in general

[queen briar]

a mustard vinaigrette is good on chicken.

[nocturne flicker]

I think it is because I'm not a big fan of sweet on salad

And vinaigrettes are usually sweet to some degree

[queen briar]

so then no to like cranberries or fruit on a salad?

[nocturne flicker]

I never put fruit in a salad unless it is like one of those premade things

[queen briar]

i kinda feel that. it dressing being sweet is fine but fresh fruit? nah.

wait, what abut those ansian ginger salad dressings?

[nocturne flicker]

I don't think I've had asian ginger salad dressing

[queen briar]

really?!?!?!

its good

[nocturne flicker]

Though ginger isn't really something I eat a lot of

[nocturne flicker]

The most ginger exposure I get is 'ginger' ale

[queen briar]

some cucumbers, edmamaes, wonton chips, grilled chicken.

[nocturne flicker]

The problem is that I don't like cucumbers or edmamaes

[queen briar]

sesame, ginger, little bit of soy sauce in a lemon and vineger

[worn wave]

I'll sometimes get a bagged asian salad mix and I usually end up eating the whole thing lol

[queen briar]

i measn you can leave those out

the issue is they usualyl use a diffrrent type of lettuce

[nocturne flicker]

Yeah, my produce choice is limited here

[queen briar]

like radichio is good but i like romain lettuce salads or kale.

[nocturne flicker]

The best I'd get is a premade salad kit

[queen briar]

they always do some type of cabbage based salad or weird asian lettuce

the oen from walmart is good

[worn wave]

Italian radicchio salad with parm 😍

[queen briar]

i use to buy this and buy the popcorn chicken and toss it in

this would go good with shrimp too, actually

ginger glazed shrimp is so good

almost as good as honey walnut shrimp

which.. i found out is just like... honey and mayonaise

[tranquil pebble]

winner winner chicken dinner

[queen briar]

i wonder if someone made a nashville hot chicken salad

mmm this doesl ook good

no tomato. jsut lettuce, some croutons, avocado and corn

blue cheese dressing, ofcourse.

[worn wave]

I think my all-time favorite salad is a kale Caesar with bacon bits

[queen briar]

mmm caesar salad is good

but i hate when people use ice berg lettuce for salad

[worn wave]

Kale's definitely an acquired taste but it works really well with the Caesar and bacon

[nocturne flicker]

I like any salad with caesar dressing

Good dressing

Probably my favorite in fact

Next to blue cheese

[queen briar]

mmmm

[indigo spoke]

So i just got my first new computer chair (ever 😆) it had a USB plug for a back message. Cords only about 3ft, does any USB extender work for power or does it have to be a certain type?

[nocturne flicker]

If I run low on caesar I mix it with a little blue cheese dressing. It is odd but I like it

[queen briar]

i havent had a taco salad in am inute

i should make that soon

with some pollo asado

[worn wave]

I'd probably just get a longer cable vs an extender

Unless the cord is fixed on there

[indigo spoke]

you know i didnt even open the pillow thing lol ill look

I guess i cannot.

[worn wave]

Yeah gotta use an extender then

[indigo spoke]

Ooo I wonder how long a battery pack might last.

Could Jimmy rig it under the seat

[worn wave]

If the cord is 3ft a battery pack is probably the intended use

That way you don't have a cable on the floor near your chair too

[indigo spoke]

good point, will have to research those, never used any.

[neat plover]

how to deal with the urge to upgrade from 3070 to 5080 even though I get 700 fps on fortnite

[random osprey]

spend the money on skins

[rancid juniper]

hey don't shame

[random osprey]

then you wont have the money to upgrade to a 5080

[neat plover]

yooo what

like the case?

[random osprey]

on fortnite skins

the item shop?

[dusk knot]

just imagine 1500fps

[rancid juniper]

why are you encouraging him

😭

[dusk knot]

[neat plover]

5080 so expensive

$1400

[rancid juniper]

its best to wait for 60 series tbh

[neat plover]

6090 💀

[rancid juniper]

yea

[tranquil pebble]

60 series is gonna be like $600 for a 6050

[rancid juniper]

slightly faster than a 3070

[neat plover]

4090 looks the coolest number

5090 looks ahh

[sinful blade]

With the money you’d spend, you’d pay my monthly rent

atleast the 💰 is coming ig

but wow jobs really trying to wear people down even if they like it

[queen briar]

this is like in japan where they just sotp giving you work until you get bored and quit

im not bored yet cause i can still use AI on pictures of my boss

[rancid juniper]

wait wait wait, you're telling me they still get paid by DOING NOTHING

[queen briar]

but i mean.. cmon man, atleast elt me go home without pay

[queen briar]

yea. but its shameful.

[rancid juniper]

honestly, idrc unless they really drop the wage

[queen briar]

well i mean, you dont have shame.

the japanese do.

[rancid juniper]

we all don't have shame it aint just me

[queen briar]

i have shame, just not with others.

[rancid juniper]

hmm i see

when you're at work and you see your friends playing games on group chat:

[pliant berry]

I've been hosting a mc server for my friends and they never seem to leave. Forget work I don't think they sleep

[queen briar]

i mean atleast your friends use it

ive offered to hsot servers and they dont even play the game

[rancid juniper]

make a plug-in or some other tool that pops up in game telling them to "Touch grass"

or go to sleep

[pliant berry]

true, rather than ask for it and never use it. but that's probably partially due to me ignoring them when they asked for a mc server repeatedly over the past few months lol

[proud jackal]

Who wants to buy my 4090

[pliant berry]

I'll take it for a dollar

[queen briar]

its that u in the picture

[rancid juniper]

[pliant berry]

the dark web

[rancid juniper]

yea i know that one

Holy link

[queen briar]

newegg needs to do better with their links

[neat plover]

1k for mobo

[olive plaza]

People need to get better at truncating cookies

[rancid juniper]

i think the link still works if you cut everything after that question mark

[rancid juniper]

yea

[dusk knot]

no thanks

[olive plaza]

1k for a motherboard

What does it offer over the $700 dark hero

[heady plinth]

It's got a tv on it.

[dusk knot]

300 bucks is my upper limit for a mobo

[sinful blade]

$80 is mine

[dusk knot]

250 even

[heady plinth]

I'd usually want to be in the $200 range too. Tuf plus, aorus elite, tomahawk, livemixer, lightning, something in that range.

[olive plaza]

Do you guys waste money on cable extensions

[dusk knot]

waste?

[sinful blade]

I will always buy used/refurbished/clearance

[dusk knot]

not a waste

[sinful blade]

I can barely manage the ones I do have

[olive plaza]

Well yeah, cable extensions do nothing besides take money

[heady plinth]

No. Not a waste.

[dusk knot]

RGB is a waste

[sinful blade]

Ah yes, brown

[heady plinth]

Well the eps one was a waste. Can't even see them.

[olive plaza]

Are those extensions or are they full replacements from like cablemod

Which go straight to the psu

[heady plinth]

Extensions.

[dusk knot]

wait is this yours?

[olive plaza]

Yeah extensions are garbage

[heady plinth]

Yeah. I have the keycaps too.

[dusk knot]

ah

[heady plinth]

It's like .1v drop maybe. It's not a big deal.

[olive plaza]

At the end of the day it's your money

But you paid money for worse power delivery

[heady plinth]

It's not worse in a relevant way and I like looking at it.

[olive plaza]

I guess I'm from the camp where, if it doesn't make my pc work better i don't buy it

The aesthetics of my own stuff, idc

I just do it for builds for customers

[heady plinth]

I mostly like quiet but I also have it on my desk with glass face side by side with my monitor so having it look nice is good.

[olive plaza]

If a cable extension set cost me, idk, 30 bucks

I'd rather spend that on games

[heady plinth]

Pretty reasonable. If I was starting from new I might just go like 217 and plain black everything or whatever is cheap at the time as long as it isn't rgb ram.

[unborn wind]

Should I swap my laptop Ryzen 7 5700u 16gb ram 512gb ssd lenovo ideapad flex 5 with stylus for a MacBook M1 8gb 256gb

[queen briar]

bigger flex

[queen briar]

just say youre colorblind, JP.

[heady plinth]

For this build I thought about case swapping to one of these but I'd have to build my own psu shroud and I'm too lazy. I really like the brass though.

[queen briar]

i had to. my case is too big for normal cables. had to buy 50mm extensions.

[olive plaza]

See that's reasonable

As long as they're from a reputable brand

[queen briar]

this PC case is kinda cool https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8mLxDyP1NKc

[queen briar]

uh, i had trouble finding these cause i asked some tech dudes and none of them had any knowledge on PC Modding

[dusk knot]

[queen briar]

I got these https://a.co/d/0aguN1IC

Asian Horse sold some for $35 but they were out of stock and I didnt want to buy white or rainbow ones

[olive plaza]

Asian Horse is Acceptable™ as long as you get the correct gauge

Cablemod is one of the good ones

Silverstone makes good ones as well

If you're going for a certain look in your build, it's always better to spend a little extra and get the full replacement cables instead of extensions

But for more length you may not have an option

[tranquil pebble]

not all PSUs have replacement cables either

even if its a high end one

[olive plaza]

That's very true

My thing is, if you're gonna spend the money on a nice, high end PSU

You can take the time to select one that has replacement cable sets available that suit your taste

[inner jetty]

Anyone have suggestions on what to buy for around $15? I have eggpoints expiring. I ordered thermal paste and I can't think of anything else

[dusk knot]

15 bucks?

for your PC?

idk, buy a thumb drive

[inner jetty]

Anything on newegg

[velvet summit]

Lemme just say anything you buy that you don't even need is just a waste of money and you might as well not have bought it

A m.2 enclosure might be useful though if you don't have one already

[nocturne flicker]

Having an M.2 enclosure is great for testing drives

[dusk knot]

huh

[nocturne flicker]

Need to find out if the drive is causing the entire PC to not work? Slap it in an enclosure and test it in isolation

[velvet summit]

A sata to usb adapter could also be useful

Those are the only 2 things I can think of around $15

That are actually useful

[nocturne flicker]

Better for laptop repair than desktop though in my experience, because laptops can have the entire thing fall apart if the boot drive doesn't work because of how the software is set up

One time someone had the controller on it fail, but instead of popping up with an error like no disk drive or whatever, it just black screened and did nothing

[sand hill]

so at build-pc i saw these emotes of the skulls after showing the parts, and please don't tell me it's bad isn't it?

[sinful blade]

Thermal paste

Easily worth it

[sinful blade]

It is bad

[queen briar]

i think they had 2 sizes and both were out of stock

[queen briar]

yea cablemod are def great. i love the feel

[sand hill]

are you kidding me!? how? i was already told and called newegg about this, did i got lied again?

[queen briar]

i was trying to get actual PSU ones, cause i knwo lian li, corsair and thermaltake have cable extensions for their PSUs

but i went SuperFlower. i asked around if i can use EVGA cable extensions for it since they are OEM for EVGA but i couldnt find any answers

i didnt wanna bite the bullet either.

[dusk knot]

hm

[sand hill]

i got a question here, i can't be ignore but just want to know those parts i show is already good or not

[queen briar]

thermal paste expires.

[queen briar]

where is this posted

[sand hill]

i already said this but just in case #build-pics and i'll ping you there if i gotta

ya know what just in case here, and i swear if these are not good i'm gonna lose it

all i want is a good pc by getting these parts, is it too much to ask?

[craggy shoal]

We already gave you advice

Did quok leave?

[sand hill]

i'm not sure but i'm already aware about that advice, atleast tell me these parts are good or not?

[craggy shoal]

They're okay

Could be better

You won't be unhappy, but you can be less unhappy

[sand hill]

i was gonna say finally but until you said this, and why? i'm not expecting something good am i?

[craggy shoal]

Because quok gave you a list last week and it was much better than this

[sand hill]

look i already know about that and swap the parts with it alright?

[craggy shoal]

Yeah basically

[sand hill]

so they're fine atleast? no breaking? nothing?

[velvet summit]

Didn't we tell you before that there is a bit of a conflict of interest when you ask the company you are buying from for advice on things they sell

They are not incentivized to give you the best advice; they'll just give you whatever works and be done

Meanwhile the people in this server had recommended things that are better priced and still good but you don't trust any of that information for whatever reason, but you ask the same people again if what Newegg recommended was good or not?

I don't understand your thought process

💀

[queen briar]

you said newegg pc support suggested this?!?!

[sinful blade]

Quok was banned.

[craggy shoal]

May I ask what happened?

[dusk knot]

[sinful blade]

Broke discord TOS.

Explicitly.

[tranquil pebble]

Yep that'll do it every single time

[queen briar]

suprised i wasnt.

[sinful blade]

You haven’t done much

yet

[craggy shoal]

[queen briar]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-i-can-almost-taste-it-lick-meme-reaction-gif-7709478523414775227

[sinful blade]

We had some evidence that be pretty clearly broke TOS. He was fine until then.

Well, we had some complaints but still

[queen briar]

im curious.

[rancid juniper]

wow did not know that user got kicked

[heady plinth]

It's alright. Main thing I wouldn't do is get an off brand 4tb as a main drive.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/L9PMZQ
https://www.newegg.com/tools/combo-builder/6675
If you want to do that like I put, I might pay the extra $20 and get the cl 30 ram kit with the sakura petals. Prices change pretty often so the best sale available on stuff like specific models of ssd, motherboard, gpu, psu, ram changes by the day sometimes.

[rancid juniper]

also curious on what they did

[sinful blade]

At this time, not willing to discuss
Just know they broke a pretty easy not to break TOS.

[rancid juniper]

so much money on ram

when will it drop

[heady plinth]

Forgot to say, that 750W rosewill psu is free include with that gigabyte gaming model of 5070.

[sand hill]

look i don't know about it and aren't they supposed to be professionals?

[heady plinth]

And the cooler is free with the 9600x.

[sand hill]

no they didn't suggest but i shown them

[sinful blade]

Support is supposed to send you here for advice lmao

They’re just meant to recc popular stuff

[heady plinth]

It's been leveled off for a couple months. There have been some like $250-280 kits on woot recently so maybe it'll actually go down. Ssds seem to be still getting worse though.

[sand hill]

i;m gonna ask again one more time and yes i know qouke already advice me and so as everyone else here but are those parts ATLEAST good like nothing to break or anything? i just want a good part that run the game fine

[heady plinth]

If you go on reddit to r/buildapcforme they are mostly competent there too and the moderation is good. No affiliate links or self promo crap allowed.

Other than the ssd I'd consider it all fine. Not the best value you could do but not like horrifically bad or anything.

[sand hill]

wait are you saying HONEST that those parts i have are ALL GOOD? sorry for the caps is becuase i don't know what's going on anymore

[heady plinth]

They're fine. You could easily do better if you wanted to listen to someone with more experience but it's not a bunch of junk that won't work together or anything like that.

[sand hill]

oh come on don't say like that at end about "not a bunch of junk that won't work together or anything like that." just want a yes or no answer even you said fine

[velvet summit]

Banned from discord or banned from the server

[nocturne flicker]

Banned from life 💀

[velvet summit]

💀

[heady plinth]

It's not bad but it's not close to the best you could do for the money. If you really like all that stuff you picked out then you can get it and it'll work basically the same as the stuff in the list I put. I was just trying to give you some advice to save you a bit of money.

[sand hill]

of course it's money but don't worry i have plan to earn extra cash from my dad (hopefully) and finally a real answer thanks

Pretty sure a ban from discord deletes all that

[velvet summit]

Discord bans do delete that but I believe there's a grace period of like 14 days for appeals?

[queen briar]

they are?

[queen briar]

[sand hill]

i already got my answer about those parts but if you like to look at them here

[sand hill]

right here @olive plaza

[sand hill]

more like one of those pc tech support yeah

[queen briar]

My guy I'm asking what they said

[sand hill]

oh my bad but they told me yeah they're good and work fine

[olive plaza]

I do this full time for a living. So if you want critiques on the list, recommendations, etc I can do that
Or if you just wanna know if the parts will work together

It's all compatible

[worn night]

dang the cheapest 120mm thermalright cooler keeps 2600x under 70 degrees under full 100w load

awesome

[sand hill]

so all of those parts i got is compatable yes and if so thank you. that's what i need to know

[olive plaza]

What are you planning to do with 8TB of SSD

Just an absolutely crazy amount of storage

[worn night]

lol

[sand hill]

well..... i might download alot of games

[olive plaza]

And you'd rather keep them all installed at the same time

[sand hill]

that.....would depends maybe

[queen briar]

@sinful blade @olive plaza

[olive plaza]

So i think the reason you were getting some people questioning the SSD choices here, is because if you were to change it, you'd free up a lot of your budget to make other parts nicer

[sand hill]

ok i;ll think about switchting the storage

[queen briar]

Homework

[worn night]

homework for every student of an entire school district

[queen briar]

there isnt that much. theres only one file but i used AI to upscale it to 16k.

[neat plover]

thermalright whiteled so assssss broooooo

but it’s cheaper than lian li

pissing me off

[heady plinth]

White looks like crap on anything. Try aiming for really light orange instead and it might get closer to white.

[grand kernel]

I got some thermalright rgb fans, white looks better on them than on my old lian li galahad

the rear fan and ram fan are like $3 fans from thermalright

don't see the problem

[queen briar]

i do. its white.

[grand kernel]

and why is that a problem

[queen briar]

i dont know. i just wanna create chaos.

[grand kernel]

I paid -$100 white tax on this

was the only 9070xt I managed to snag back when they needed stock alerts so I was like alright let's do a white build around it

[queen briar]

i paid zero for my white tax

[grand kernel]

mods ban this user

wait...

I'm mods

[worn night]

https://klipy.com/gifs/i-have-the-power-2

[heady plinth]

When you set argb to white they end up tinted blue because the blue led is the brightest, green is also brighter than red.

[grand kernel]

idk i use 63/63/63 cause 255/255/255 is way too bright

but these leds don't have a visible tint

the lian li fans did

[safe cape]

clean

[grand kernel]

2 of them were tinted green and 1 of them was tinted blue lol

thank you

one day I'll retake the proper photos with the ram fan installed

How good is it at picking up faults in ram

Someone I know used it for maybe 1h or 2h is that long enough

[unborn wind]

I have hw info but downloaded it like 3 weeks ago am I safe I haven’t done any updates

Wait CPU Z is also affected

I have that too

I’m scared

[upper wedge]

Very much

[unborn wind]

Am I safe

[upper wedge]

Check what version you’re on

[unborn wind]

Kk

I hat about CPU Z

I heard that’s hacked also

Bruh

[upper wedge]

Otherwise just malwarebytes

[unborn wind]

Pcs aren’t safe anymore

[upper wedge]

And delete the app

[elfin mural]

Windows defender can detect a lot of malwares

[unborn wind]

I should be fine as I downloaded these softwares 3 weeks ago

[upper wedge]

People downloading open source ain’t safe no more

[elfin mural]

If you aren't sure, scan with malwarebytes

2080 ti vs 3070

[ashen swan]

price ?

[unborn wind]

Not in usd but same

Or around same

3070 extra say 10-30usd

[elfin mural]

2080ti is a better card overall

plus you can't use the latest dlss on both cards anyway

[ashen swan]

drivers might end sooner then later

idk

[elfin mural]

nvidia typically supports an arch for a decade

[ashen swan]

20 and 30 might be killed at the same time

or not

[elfin mural]

that's 10 years since release

maxwell lost driver support in 2023 iirc

[ashen swan]

what is the source of iphone ultra ?

[velvet summit]

Huh

The source?

[elfin mural]

do you mean where the news came from?

i saw posts about dummy models, so that's the source lol

apple's leaks are typically pretty accurate when you see dummy models already

means apple is testing production

[ashen swan]

ah

there's trailers and stuff for it on some channels

[elfin mural]

some guy in one of the suppliers apple work with took pics of the dummy model

and 3d modelers base upon the pictures they have of the dummy model

leaked alongside iphone 18 pro

[velvet summit]

Wtf is that

[elfin mural]

foldable iphone

[pliant berry]

everyone seems so convinced that apple is coming out with their foldable this year

[velvet summit]

That's the ugliest thing I've seen since the cybertruck

[ashen swan]

Can't wait for Macbook neo with A19 Pro

[elfin mural]

it's pretty much an iphone air if it was foldable kek

[elfin mural]

probably coming next year tbh

[ashen swan]

this is just a dummy

[ashen swan]

to bad I'm loving framework now

[elfin mural]

heard apple is running out of downbinned a18 pro chips tho

[velvet summit]

If the camera bump is like that in the release it'll still be ugly af

[elfin mural]

so they could update the neo pretty soon if it's true

[ashen swan]

Next macbook I'm buying is like

A20 Pro Neo

so like

in 4 years

or

[elfin mural]

the a19 pro comes with 12 gigs of memory

[ashen swan]

ye

[elfin mural]

so yeah, more ram if the a19 pro refresh comes

apple wouldn't change anything in the iphone pro socs since they just use the downbinned version

one less gpu core, but still performant

[ashen swan]

I'm not buying a M series macbook anymore

Framework 12
Framework 13
SKTC A 17 + Intel B60

[elfin mural]

yeah if you want linux, arm macs aren't the way to go

they lack support, even if they do boot into the os

[ashen swan]

I enjoy mac os slighlty

but LINUX IS SO GOOD

[velvet summit]

I've changed my mind from buying a framework to an panther Lake ThinkPad
Or maybe if there's a good enough deal on arrow lake or whatever

[ashen swan]

why ?

[velvet summit]

Cost

[ashen swan]

ah

[elfin mural]

thinkpads are also pretty repairable as far as the important parts go

[velvet summit]

Also framework still only has the older intel

At least for the 16

[ashen swan]

Framework 13 with Ultra series 1 doesn't seem like a bad deal

slap Linux on it and like 10 hours of battery life

[velvet summit]

i originally considered the 16 because i could upgrade it with a gpu but i realize that i pretty much have no reason to get a dgpu with how good modern igpus are for most tasks

[ashen swan]

use the Core disabling stuff

and boom

trying to find a Radeon Pro card rn

[pliant berry]

I wish I could try out a framework but it just doesn't make any sense for me having most of my work be in photo/video and just how expensive they are

[velvet summit]

i need a numpad though
well, not need exactly, but i use a numpad frequently enough that the lack of one is a pain point

[ashen swan]

external Numpad XD

[velvet summit]

i do have a external numpad that i bought for my zeph g15 since i couldn't handle not having the numpad, but i don't like to carry it around in my bag

also i hate tiny screens

even 16" screens are small to me

i do not want to go back to a small screen laptop

i do a lot of split screen stuff which makes the 16" feel small

[ashen swan]

LG gram 17

has the RX 7700 NON XT ever release ?

no

answers no

so funny story

Asrock's passive B60 is only for bussnies

My dad is like he has a bussines card

so

[velvet summit]

adding on that makes the total cost the same as just getting a thinkpad, and i wouldn't need to bring around a 2nd screen that takes power from the laptop causing the battery life to get lower

[ashen swan]

I want a Intel B50 so bad

I remeber someone selling a Workstation radeon card

smth

ehhh

lol

I would only get Intel if they did better in locally hosted AI

[upper rain]

b70 is pretty good if you care more about model quality over raw throughput

[craggy shoal]

I also want to do image generation, not just LLMs

[upper rain]

they're not the fastest but that 32GB vram buffer lets them do a lot that comparatively priced radeon/geforce cards can't

[sinful blade]

@dusk knot the way they teased || conquest coming from the grave but then just nothing happening || was entirely expected, but funny

[velvet summit]

i have a suspicion it has to do with how they teach you in school, because when you are in school, you are taught to ask before actually asking a question, which technically is more polite when you're talking vocally

but it is the opposite online, where you shouldn't ask for permission to ask a question

also when asking vocally, you tend to not wait for a confirmation either, you just ask something like "may i ask, does this item get binned or recycled"

it's more of a means to get the attention of the person you're talking to, but you don't need to do that and is bad etiquette online since anybody who is reading your message would already be paying attention

luckily i haven't installed any new cpu-z versions recently but still, apparently this aint the first time cpu-z was compromised

[elfin mural]

i have never used hwmonitor ever since i discovered hwinfo64

it just dives into deeper detail

[rancid juniper]

^^^

[elfin mural]

and cpu-z is kinda redundant since well, hwinfo64 is a one-stop program pretty much

bios info, ram specs, you name it

but i do prefer crystaldiskinfo tho for smart info

[dusk knot]

Yeah..it's crazy. My least favorite episode so far, but it has good action

[upper rain]

does the ltt discord still exist?

[leaden pewter]

Agreed

[opaque sedge]

Is invincible prime vid only?

[dusk knot]

In the US, yea

Idk how Amazon functions outside of the US

[opaque sedge]

https://crimsondesert.pearlabyss.com/en-US/News/Notice/Detail?_boardNo=82 damn they’re turning around the game rather quickly, there’s another patch on the way

[dusk knot]

Yes

[opaque sedge]

Probably similarly?

[upper rain]

weird, idk why i can't join it lol

[ashen swan]

14100 or 12400 for NAS

[dusk knot]

Sometimes they license their shows to local networks

[upper rain]

12400

[opaque sedge]

Oh yeah cable is still pretty common even in the US I forgot

[upper rain]

both are alderlake, 12400 gets you moar cores

unless 14100 is notably cheaper

[dusk knot]

They banned you ig

😔

[upper rain]

suboptimal. i haven't been on the server in years

[opaque sedge]

What did u do pibby

[upper rain]

idk what i did lol

[opaque sedge]

Liking arrowlake?

[ashen swan]

hmmm or 12300T which is way more efficent

[upper rain]

they're probably jealous of my blue GPUs and epic Arrowlake CPUs

[upper rain]

arrowlake is best lake

[ashen swan]

arrow lake is not that bad

[ashen swan]

Nova Lake will beat it

but yes

it is best lake rn

[upper rain]

yah but it doesn't exist yet

[opaque sedge]

So midlake

[upper rain]

so for now arrowlake best lake

[ashen swan]

keep lying

[opaque sedge]

I want a core ultra series 3 lappy

Ngl

[upper rain]

$300 CPU that matches the 9950x/3d in multithreading and edges out my old 7800x3D in the games I actually play

it's a really nifty platform with a lot of performance to be squeezed out of it if ur patient

[opaque sedge]

Huh actually?

Lemme see if microcenter has a bundle

Been wanting some rgb ram anyways

[ashen swan]

270K plus is insanely good

[upper rain]

270k is wicked good at multithreading and if you tune the uncore frequencies and give it good ram it performs like a monster in games

mid for gaming at stock tho

[ashen swan]

@upper rain Hear me out 12400T for 8100 NTD

[upper rain]

if that's cheaper than the others then 100%

[ashen swan]

RAM OC would give a bunch of free peformance

[upper rain]

low power CPUs are great for NAS

[opaque sedge]

mmm why wouldnt i just shell out another 50 for the 9850x3d

[ashen swan]

but it's more efficent and then it would save me electric bill trust

[ashen swan]

way better productivity peformance

[opaque sedge]

How does it compare to a 9900x?

[upper rain]

you can also reduce 12400f PL in your bios

[ashen swan]

It's on the same level as 9950X btw

[opaque sedge]

Same price

[ashen swan]

hmmm true

[opaque sedge]

Goddamn

Does the 9900x have any advantages

[upper rain]

bc you get like half of the multithreading performance and only like 15% better game performance

[ashen swan]

AM5

THIS IS A CPU ??????

WTF

[sinful blade]

Real

[upper rain]

yah, china exclusive

[opaque sedge]

The socket hmm, i dont its a big deal cuz by the time a cpu comes out thats actually worth upgrading from even current gen entry level cpus the am5 socket will likely be eol

[upper rain]

just a 12400 with more boost clock

[sinful blade]

It was a wtf is actually happening episode, but the fight scene, especially with raining blood playing
Such a good song
