I got ya rommie

[acoustic lagoon]

Thank you

Not sure if it's a deal.... But in today's market, that's a good deal for a CPU w/ good APU

[nova geyser]

Pretty sure it's msrp/been going for that much

But yeah nice igpu

Bruh i need to go to one of these

Why not one in seattle ?????!!

[unborn phoenix]

sadge

microcenter in every state when

[digital wigeon]

Good find

[nova geyser]

Why only in murica

[hybrid garnet]

Cuz international law is garbo and complex

It's hard enough doing taxes for multiple states

[umbral trellis]

When microcenter in india

Falcie make it a thing

[hybrid garnet]

Yes that's totally in my power to do.
Best I could do is either become the CEO and make them go international or start my own shop. I know just where to start hiring too 😉

[umbral trellis]

POG!!!

[hybrid garnet]

Alright, step 1, become a dual citizen because I'd like to be able to go freely between both countries. Shouldn't take more than... Oh. India doesn't allow that.

[umbral trellis]

Lmao

[hybrid garnet]

No really. They have a kind of life long visa but you have to be Indian lol. 🤷‍♂️

[umbral trellis]

I have the gotta be indian part down

[hybrid garnet]

So that pretty much takes away option 2. Back to option 1.
Step one: move closer to microcenter
Step two: get masters in business
Step three: become CEO

[umbral trellis]

Shouldnt take you too long

Like 4-8 weeks for the masters degree

[hybrid garnet]

I got the basic courses done already, saves a little time. It was part of my computer degree.

Oh shoot I probably need at least a bachelor's in that too

[nova geyser]

Ik but would be normal if they set up as proper company instead of like shipping or something

[nova geyser]

Ireland does

[hybrid garnet]

Easiest way would be to set up a warehouse in the target country and do online stuff, but that's not the Microcenter style

[nova geyser]

Yeah but competition good

So yes pls

[hybrid garnet]

Also with Irish being my largest DNA % I would love to have dual citizenship there

And if I started my own company I wouldn't need to worry about business degree as much, I'd just need an attorney and accountant to help with legal and finance stuff

Anyway we can continue this in #general-chat

[lone depot]

Pato and Fal center

resell pc parts

[hybrid garnet]

Of course I'd have used inventory
I think I have enough to fill the back room already lol

[lone depot]

[nova geyser]

Yes pato and falcie tech 😎

[lone depot]

When will 3080ti go down to normal $?

Lol

[nova geyser]

MSRP? When 4080 ti has been out for a month or so most likely

But who knows

[glass mason]

by that time all 3080/tis will be gone and sold out prob

[lone depot]

Why cant we have normal gpu card prices?!! 😡😡😡😡

Because people like you want to buy them lol

Anyone know where i can find a good white curved 32 inch monitor? I stg there is nothing

[hybrid garnet]

A white monitor? Uhhhhhh... I'll look

[hybrid garnet]

Kinda cheapy but this is all I could find that's suitable for gaming, 1440p 100Hz https://www.walmart.com/ip/OPEN-BOX-Viotek-GN34CW-34-Inch-21-9-Ultrawide-Curved-QHD-Gaming-Monitor-100Hz-1440p-FreeSync/677963269

[lone depot]

What are good monitors if i want dual monitors

Like im not sure my monitor knowledge is up there like you guys

[hybrid garnet]

What's your budget and how do you plan on using them?

Both for gaming, or one for discord, YouTube, etc while gaming on the other?

[nova geyser]

Yes exactly, people who have had them for a while will probs be selling around msrp when 4080 ti comes out kek

[lone depot]

I guess around 800-1000

And my plan is gaming, and for YT/Note taking and looking at notes

All in one 😂

[lone depot]

Samsung has some white monitors

[silver bane]

what are your guys thoughts on the cyberpower pc gamer xtreme for running gta v?

[true furnace]

ew

get abs systems instead

[silver bane]

ok thanks for the advise

[true furnace]

https://www.newegg.com/abs-ali475/p/N82E16883360070 @silver bane this should do, cheapest one i could find

but still solid specs

[fringe urchin]

only 500 gigs of space tho sadly

[true furnace]

Can always add more later

[fringe urchin]

i suppose

[humble schooner]

Expensive though

Whoops

[hollow prawn]

Prob

[solemn wave]

Jus wondering if it'd be worth it cause it's about 100$ more expensive

[hollow prawn]

That's on you if you need that better CPU or not

[solemn wave]

Well true I'm just unsure which one is the better deal

Just looking for something that'll run games at 1080p 60 fps

Prob not gonna play super intense games

[hollow prawn]

Both will be fine

[true furnace]

ye

either should be fine

i prefer the lenovo tho

cause ryzen

[dusk mason]

Hi. I need a gaming laptop recommendation which can also run live streaming smoothly at 1080p
Just a 250gb ssd capacity is enough for me and I don't want hdd.
No fancy lighting keyboard or any fancy cosmetics required.
Budget: $1349.42 - $2024.13

[unborn phoenix]

1080p streaming hmmmmm

[hybrid garnet]

You'd probably want something with at least a 3060/ti in it for that, idk if anything good is in stock on my usual sites

[dusk mason]

What's the least one? So that viewers can get no lags.

[unborn phoenix]

What if you got a normal laptop and a dgpu

Or is that stupid

[hybrid garnet]

eGPU is kinda cringe

[unborn phoenix]

Well a lot of lag is also internet

[dusk mason]

my internet is good.

[hybrid garnet]

You'd need not just the eGPU dock to run an external but the laptop also would need to support thunderbolt with a usb-c connector. Those uh, aren't cheap models.

[unborn phoenix]

Ok

[dusk mason]

what are some cheap ones that you know of that can show smooth streams?

[hybrid garnet]

I'm looking for ones that are in stock, most of the good ones I know of have been OOS for weeks

[dusk mason]

you can show me oos ones and I'll get an idea

[dusk mason]

so far what I've seen good laptop brands are razer, msi and rog

[hybrid garnet]

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16834155856?quicklink=true

That one's not bad considering it also has a $100 rebate

This one steps up to a 3070 for not much more https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16834233376?quicklink=true

Almost the same as the first one but cheaper https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16834233446

[dusk mason]

~2.30Ghz is slow?

[hybrid garnet]

It boosts higher

Laptop models idle lower

[lone depot]

Ghz isn’t everything

you can’t just judge a cpu like that lol

[hybrid garnet]

That 11800H boosts to 4.6GHz

[ornate drum]

I have 3000 burning a hole in my pocket because I need a work rig that I can edit 8k with. Anyone see a better deal than this https://www.newegg.com/abs-ala251/p/N82E16883360155 ?

[lone depot]

looking

[ornate drum]

this seems really legit, only issue is i don't know the brand

[lone depot]

ABS?

[ornate drum]

yeah

[lone depot]

It's basically newegg's prebuilt line

[ornate drum]

oh, well there ya go

[lone depot]

I strongly recommend ABS over any other prebuilt manufacturer / assembler

Need to be level 3 to send links/gifs/images

name will turn green

[ornate drum]

haha

WELL I'LL WORK AROUND IT

-say no more.jpg-

[lone depot]

you're definitely going to need more storage for this pc if you're working 8k

[ornate drum]

oh totally

i'm trying to convince them to get a nas

[lone depot]

Oooh

[ornate drum]

it's got enough wattage to hold a HDD or two though

[lone depot]

It could probably use faster RAM too

3600 is generally recommended for ryzen

the speeds on the ram included is 3200, so a little slower

[ornate drum]

yeah, but that's not too big of a deal breaker, and it's easy enough to upgrade later if I want 64 anyway

does a business account help...?

[lone depot]

Hmm

Not sure, im not aware that newegg has enterprise deals of any sort

you could shoot NeweggService a DM and see

[ornate drum]

thanks for your help

[lone depot]

Np!

[lone depot]

Anyone know a good 32 inch curved 144hz white monitor? I can never find 1

You could get a monitor then spray paint it

Hello

https://www.newegg.com/global/ph-en/hp-pavilion-15-eg0073cl-mainstream/p/N82E16834272795?item=N82E16834272795

Is this a good laptop for Architecture? Im a student ;-; trying to find one that fits my budget.

[unborn phoenix]

I have a Pavilion

How does one do “architecture”
Is it like modeling and stuff or..

[velvet steeple]

What applications do you use?

[rustic sky]

Autocad

[rustic sky]

Yes

[unborn phoenix]

CPU could possibly have some trouble

Idk though

[rustic sky]

Is it because of the speed?

[velvet steeple]

Those specs would be fine for AutoCAD

[rustic sky]

Will it overheat? Or idk lag?
It would be a first laptop for me that's why im a bit nervous buying.

[digital wigeon]

Its decent but if you're going deep into AutoCAD, you may need to look for something with a quadro or at least more GPU power

[rustic sky]

A GTX 1650, 1660, and 1060 will work just fine for 3D modeling

Since laptops with quadro GPUs are expensive

I'll save these ty!

[wild onyx]

What is beter 2 sticks of 16gb or 4 sticks of 8gb?

[wide trout]

depends on the number of memory channels your CPU has

most have 2

nearly all have 2

so 2 sticks is better

4 sticks looks cooler

[wild onyx]

Can I still use a light enchament kit like 2 RGb sticks next to it or?

I got a i7 10700f

It's a beast

wow!!!!

last time I bought one i was 5th grade of elementary school and it has been dead since then ☠️

why?

…

haha

so you’re buying a new laptop cause he said that

you need to be level 3 to send links

nope im not

I already bought the laptop long time before seeing the massages

No i’m talking to jack

Oh

Sorry

Lol

hahaha

?

There’s asians that live in the US too

You mean you came here from asia and bought a laptop here

Oh so are you trying to find a laptop that he can buy for you

in the US market

yeah

I don't need it

If i have to , i'll just buy me a mini webcam

it's not that big thing

u can just get u a camera and connect it to the laptop when u need it

[digital wigeon]

Not a bad price for a nice looking desk

[velvet steeple]

A $40 desk?

[dense solar]

I got two of them the last time they were on sale, lol

The only “problem” I have with them is that the wood is very thick so if you’re into racing sims with the wheel and stuff you won’t be able to hook it on the side of the desk, but that’s not a huge issue, just something to take into consideration

[velvet steeple]

Is the desktop one of those cardboard inside desktops?

Hello I'm trying to find a 2~4 year old gaming laptop that can hit $500 I can do 5 years but the Adobe Suits and running Valorant are a must. If it's not feasible I'm okay with that answer

[nova geyser]

Search ebay/Facebook market place

[true furnace]

There's a deal on reddit actually

A nitro 5 with 1060

400

[lone depot]

Wtf

[severe sun]

Can you link me?

[humble schooner]

What

[lone depot]

10400f is crap?

[unborn phoenix]

ive had a lot of people try to convince me that the 10400f is a trash cpu

they pull that one GN video

[lone depot]

Smfh

10400f is still great

Even my 9400f runs fine

it’s pretty budget but you get a 3070 so can’t complain really..

[humble schooner]

^

[digital wigeon]

10400f is not crap, smh

[rough oar]

I5 isnt bad

[digital wigeon]

At all.

[rough oar]

Its a great budget cpu and performs exceptionally well

What how does that make any sense

Another intel shiller against the I5 screaming ryzen 5 best what a wonderful world

[digital wigeon]

Exactly. A CPU has nothing to do with download time, that has to do with your internet

[rough oar]

Before you go rambling and bashing try to keep an open mind and check the facts

[digital wigeon]

All good man, we all know that we can't change the mindset of a fanboy.

That's the worse site to check for benchmarks, lol

[lone depot]

[finite fjord]

Ryzen is way better than intel core

You're showing that AMD is better perf while saying the opposite.

[digital wigeon]

That's assuming that they even have a PC

[digital wigeon]

Probably on console, or worse, on a cell phone and call it a PC...

[pure pecan]

?

in wat context

[lone depot]

In this case 5900x… But you have to realize not everyone can afford one

[rough oar]

Actually id figure the budget first then ask for use case before jumping on the part list

[lone depot]

Where’s the common sense

[digital wigeon]

I know people don't say "My Ford engine is better than yours"... Lol

[lone depot]

Intel for budget this gen, and ryzen for workstation!!!

have you SEEN the 11400s performance in gaming

[digital wigeon]

Apparently not^^^

[abstract prawn]

I will say my foreign car better than your Ford though, it is made in America

[finite fjord]

Yes, as Intel can be ran as direct die much easier and is better at gaming then AMD when both systems are completely tuned

[digital wigeon]

Hence they're blank and fact-less statement

[lone depot]

Have you even BOTHERED to look on the internet for facts and look up from your bedwars crap??

[digital wigeon]

I also have a foreign car that's made in America 😉

[lone depot]

How does that work

[velvet steeple]

Wait is this the person that called us Intel shills lmao

[lone depot]

probably

i may shill intel but at least i still give amd a chance…

[velvet steeple]

Or was that Kato

[rough oar]

Kato

[lone depot]

(also because i’m broke asf and can’t afford ryzen)

[finite fjord]

inb4 same person

[rough oar]

Probably just siblings

[digital wigeon]

I think we scared them off

Or a relative

[rough oar]

Rip i was gonna have them do a perf test against me lol

And they probably have a Ryzen 5 5600X

[digital wigeon]

Assuming they even have a PC

They did get on user's benchmark after all

[rough oar]

Ill blow that little black berry slide phone of theirs out of the water with my TI-86

[finite fjord]

I mean hey, have one as well. Tho, also got kinda sorta decent bdie OC as well so idk

[digital wigeon]

Dam, but Texas Instruments make good stuff tho

[rough oar]

For so

[digital wigeon]

TBH, I like both Intel and AMD, I've just used Intel the last decade since I like their performance but will build a Ryzen PC one day. I just don't like AMD drivers

[rough oar]

I give credit where its due but imo i prefer intel best for budget

[finite fjord]

AMD drivers are pretty decent now

[lone depot]

same.

I’m open to amds recent “budget” options but 1. they are pretty expensive for relatively similar performance and 2. drivers!!! ahhhh!!!

[digital wigeon]

I believe it although they recently had to send a BIOS update to fix a vulnerability. I will never get their GPUs since I have to deal with rolling back new drivers to older versions just to prevent the PC from crashing

[finite fjord]

I usually look at third market deals instead, AMD and Intel have fairly similar pricing where I am for third market. US probs has cheaper Intel third market tho

[rough oar]

Well at least the 11900K has an IGPU

Unlike 5950X

[lone depot]

Yeah sad part about ryzen

[rough oar]

Now i do give credit for some of their APUs tho

[lone depot]

Meh igpu and meh cpu

good combo for gamers on ultimate budget

[rough oar]

Yeah thats what i meant

And great placeholder till they get hands on gpu

[lone depot]

[rough oar]

Again credit is due to both companies

[digital wigeon]

Agreed, its the toxic consumers that really pitch companies like Intel and AMD as rivals. They really don't care, they're in their own lanes doing their own thing

[lone depot]

People buying 3600 in 2021 for above msrp:

[digital wigeon]

Are like people buying 1050 Tis for twice the amount when its not even worth the MSRP at this point

[lone depot]

Intel dominates mobile chip, software development, and budget gaming options

AMD great for powerhouse rigs for multi core

laptop chips good but intel has basically erased them from the market

[rough oar]

I kinda miss the I3 as the 10th gen have been marked as their end

Great for workstations especially for light work and great price

[lone depot]

Yeah

[digital wigeon]

Agreed

[abstract prawn]

I thought Intel was going to be releasing new I3s when Alder Lake comes out? Based on 11th gen?

[digital wigeon]

I know that they still release i3s for laptops but not quite sure on the desktop

[lone depot]

Sad

[abstract prawn]

Apparently some dude who is a YouTuber named Moore's Law is Dead claims to have sources saying that an I3 line will release with 4 locked cores. Dunno who he is so dunno how trustworthy that is

Hello everyone, do you know a good tablet al least 10 inch to read, view movies, draw and play games.

do you recommend any brand specific

[unborn phoenix]

Well there’s obviously the IPad Pro
Which honestly I would argue isn’t overpriced for what it is

It is stupid powerful and you get the added benefit of Procreate compatibility

[glass tendon]

Hello all, I'm trying to buy a Gaming laptop to use throughout College and I'm looking at this specific one on Newegg. Everything seems good except it has no reviews... Is it safe to purchase it? Link: https://www.newegg.com/Eclipse-Gray-ASUS-ROG-Strix-G15-G513QM-EB94-Gaming-Entertainment/p/N82E16834235881?Item=N82E16834235881

[unborn phoenix]

It’s sold by Newegg so I can almost guarantee it’s a safe purchase

[glass tendon]

I looked through and I agree. Just needed some more verifications. Thanks!

[hollow prawn]

Other variants of the G15 have been reviewed fairly well by third party reviewers, just the usual relatively bad battery life complaint you expect to see with gaming laptops

[glass tendon]

I agree. Thank you to both of you once again. I just didn't want to get scammed or accidentally purchased a faulty item. In addition, reviews really help but without any, it's difficult when making purchases. Thanks again!

[hybrid garnet]

Yeah you have a max battery size of 97 W/h for it to be TSA compliant... Wish we could get bigger but aftermarket only afaik

[glass tendon]

I see... I'm unfamiliar with this brand, however, is there any way that I could upgrade or change it?

[hollow prawn]

Asus is a pretty big brand, but well, battery upgrade is not the most common thing to do.

[unborn phoenix]

Battery upgrade prolly not a good idea imo

[hybrid garnet]

Battery upgrades are mostly only possible on models with removable batteries, not internal

[glass tendon]

I see... I'd like your opinions though, would you consider the laptop above to be a decent/fair PC? Or do you think there are better alternatives that I could purchase?

I just need one that could do both gaming and school-work.

[hollow prawn]

What games are you planning to play, and what kind of school work specifically?

[hybrid garnet]

If it has good specs in a fair price range, brand doesn't matter as much in laptops

[unborn phoenix]

It should perform if you’re not doing anything too taxing

From what I understand the G15 is a good choice

[glass tendon]

Major games like Valorant, CS: GO, etc. And considering I'm majoring in Cybersecurity, I'll have to run virtual machines and programs... It's my 1st year of College as well so I'm unsure as of rn.

[hollow prawn]

You'll be fine then

val and cs and such are very lightweight esports titles

[unborn phoenix]

That laptop will handle Val and csgo ezpz no issue

[hollow prawn]

and as long as you're not planning on running like 20 VMs at once, it'll be fine at doing that too

[glass tendon]

Alright, thanks for your assistances guys! And probably not 20 VMs lol, imagine...

[tall elm]

Whats a really good gaming laptop I can get for 2000 bucks

[hollow prawn]

usd?

[tall elm]

Yup

[hollow prawn]

below 2000 or around 2000

at 2100, you can have this
https://www.newegg.com/shale-black-acer-nitro-5-an517-41-r3nx-gaming-entertainment/p/N82E16834360064

[unborn phoenix]

I’ve heard that the Nitro 5 build quality is unspectacular

Still a solid recommendation on my list though

[hollow prawn]

I did a quick peak at this review for thermals, which is fine, so it's fine in my books
https://www.laptopmedia.com/review/acer-nitro-5-an517-41-high-end-hardware-and-a-good-price-tag-in-one-place/

tho it does seem to be max-q pl

lemme check again

well

it can't be max q if it's boosting to 1400mhz

so dunno why that review says 85w

[tall elm]

What is the tgp/tdp?

[hollow prawn]

of?

the heck acer

[tall elm]

Yeah

[hollow prawn]

so much conflicting information

[tall elm]

So best not to look over at it

Will there any new gaming laptops coming out in December

[vague prairie]

Thanks!!

[hollow prawn]

review says 85w, boosts to 1400mhz, when the 85w pl variant only boosts to 870-1320mhz, so going to assume pl in the review is wrong, but frequency is correct, but then Acer says it only boosts to 1245mhz, but draws up to 100w, which would make some sense since the 80w pl would only boost to 780-1245mhz, but then there is no 100w pl, closest one is the max-q variant with 90w that does 930-1365mhz, or 115w non max-q that does 1110mhz-1545mhz, which would follow more closely with the frequency behavior in that review

so

yay acer

[supple dock]

i don't personally trust Acer anyways
they made my laptop that thermal throttles like hell even when repasted i am considering making my own watercooling solution for it because their air cooled solution doesn't tame the i7-8750h
(Acer Predator Helios 300 2018)

[umbral trellis]

I mean it is named after the greek sun god

[glass mason]

acer nitro build quality bad but their predator lineup is pretty good

[tall elm]

Are there any msi raider deals?

[cunning harbor]

I would say if you want to buy it right now, go for amazon because they have the best price but I would say wait till November.

[lone depot]

Any promo codes?
Gonna get an MSI B550 gaming plus with a ryzen 5 5600x

[nova geyser]

I wouldn't get a gaming plus board, but usually the promo codes for newegg are written on the page, I'd recommend this instead https://pcpartpicker.com/product/JXBhP6/asus-rog-strix-b550-f-gaming-atx-am4-motherboard-rog-strix-b550-f-gaming

[lone depot]

Well I’m getting it mainly for the price
What’s the prods of the strix?

And I like the look of it

Price and look

[nova geyser]

The strix is just a wayyy better board, vrms mainly, as well as being the sameish price

[unborn phoenix]

Rog boards nice

[nova geyser]

Especially at that 140$ price tag

[unborn phoenix]

[lone depot]

$140? The app says it’s $189

[nova geyser]

Maybe Amazon is picking up a 3rd party seller for that board, I'd go with this https://pcpartpicker.com/product/3Mxbt6/msi-mag-b550-tomahawk-atx-am4-motherboard-mag-b550-tomahawk or asus tuf b550 then

[lone depot]

Oh I was looking on Newegg

Yeah the ROG is still around $50 more

[nova geyser]

What? It says 141 on Amazon? And if it isn't saying the right price, the 2 others i sent are like 15$ more

[long sorrel]

i see the ROG as $141 on amazon

[lone depot]

Hold up

Is this USD?

[long sorrel]

maybe different region/currency

yea this is USD

are you cad

[lone depot]

._. Then why do I get $194.99

Nope usd

[nova geyser]

Yes, that's what pc part picker says

[long sorrel]

ah it's probably getting the used prices and not brand new

on amazon the new ones are $194 and used is $144

or outdated

[lone depot]

Yeah… that’s a bit much for me

[nova geyser]

@lone depot it's probs a 3rd party seller get, one of theses instead

[long sorrel]

the rog is $190 on newegg. non wifi

[lone depot]

Tomahawk is $155 so I could get it

[nova geyser]

Too much for it

[nova geyser]

Way better board than gaming plus

[long sorrel]

it's actually $190 on asus' own store

[lone depot]

The ROG looks rly nice
Depends how much my dad pays me when I help him on this job
But usually don’t have a lot to spend so trying to find less expensive stuff

[long sorrel]

it'd be a better deal to get the wifi version new from amazon for $195 instead of non wifi version for $190

[long sorrel]

i dont think you'd need the rog anyway

[lone depot]

I don’t need it
But…
I want it

More lights

[long sorrel]

well, lights DO give you better performance ||/s||

[lone depot]

No that's the only colour...

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16811315004

145 USD for:

[nova geyser]

That's a cute case

[sonic vale]

decent deal but that case airflow looks incredibly bad

looks like it would make the h510 look good

[nova geyser]

Looks more like the s340

[lone depot]

i mean it comes with 4x Gentlye Typhoon fans, from what ive heard. ill have to look more into that front panel

[velvet steeple]

Dang really?

That's neat

[hollow prawn]

Although

[velvet steeple]

Been awhile since I have seen Gentle Typhoons

[hollow prawn]

No matter how good a fan you put in a metal box with no openings

[nova geyser]

I mean p400a digital/p500a digital still a better shout imo

[hollow prawn]

It won't change much

So would need testing on the case

[lone depot]

p400a is on an 80 usd price point, rather nice deal

[hollow prawn]

At least it comes with good fans

[sonic vale]

even delta fans can't pull air out of solid metal

[austere thunder]

is it solid metal

idk are there pics of the bare chassis

[lone depot]

the front panel is so odd, take a look

[sonic vale]

oh is that an option to take off the solid front and use mesh?

it's pretty good then

[lone depot]

u can just remove the front most piece from what the picture is showing

[sonic vale]

yeah that seems quite decent

[lone depot]

hmmm

[sonic vale]

I'd buy it if I was in the market rn but I'm not

[lone depot]

i dont even have enough money atm for it. nor do i need it, but christ all mighty that is clean

[austere thunder]

yeah looks decent

[humble schooner]

Is there a white version

[fringe urchin]

just get an icue 4000x

comes with 3 fans, isnt a metal box, and has rgb, and is like 5$ cheaper.

[wide trout]

inverted case layouts are 🥵

well, literally anything that isnt the same old boring typical layout, really

[fringe urchin]

someday i wanna put a pc in my old ps2.

[lone depot]

lol

that sounds like a fun project

[fringe urchin]

i have the fat model, so itd basically be a microatx case.

id probably remove the disc tray and put a temprature monitor panel in its place

lol

[slow sparrow]

ooo

[humble schooner]

can the rgb be customized or is that just how it is

not a fan of rgb tbh

[tawny shoal]

Yeah but you're kinda missing something here lol

That one you said was a metal box comes with a great psu and hub so meh

nevermind sku was for a 3060 build. OOS either way

[mighty jolt]

I was about to poop my pants when I seen 3080 prebuilts for 1300

[umbral trellis]

Its bad tbh. That case has less airflow than the h510

[novel mortar]

Just poke some holes into it

[tawny shoal]

How is it bad

If it has a 3080 that is insanely hella good

[umbral trellis]

3060

Not 3080

[tawny shoal]

Says 3080 everywhere

[errant sigil]

sku leads back to a 3060 build, you could have probably fought for the 3080 build as like it happened with the 980 pro listing mistake

Hmm yeah for sure

A 3080 5800x build for 1300 bro would be amazing

You can set it so you have a "saved search" with filters like auction/buy now, price limits, location, etc, then you get an email when something is listed that fits your filters.

Gotta be fast though

[marsh token]

@hybrid garnet how do you save search sometjing

[hybrid garnet]

You search the keywords, add the filters you want, then hit the button that says "save this search"

Set your notification settings from your account settings so you get pings on your phone when things are listed

[marsh token]

So should I just search gpu nvidia geforce rtx

And no model number yet

[hybrid garnet]

You can do multiple saved searches for the models you want

https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-32gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820374189 Incredible price on top tier dual rank b-die

[hollow prawn]

if forky says so, trust forky on b die pricing

[nova geyser]

B die usually very spensive

[small otter]

I mean, that's still expensive as far as b-die goes, that's just really, really good b-die

Used to be $330+

But if you got a 3080 system or w/e, what's $260 on 32GB of ram?

[fringe urchin]

it can be yea

what laptop should i buy?

[hybrid garnet]

You only linked one?

[lone depot]

maybe they were just asking in general

and linked one they thought they might want

[hybrid garnet]

Well I can't really answer it as a general question either. Since they linked the Spanish version of Amazon I assume they're not in the US and they didn't say what region, or what currency/budget, etc.

[lone depot]

True .

[tawny shoal]

I'm guessing they live in USA so USD, Spanish is just their primary language

[willow sequoia]

Would anyone consider 600 for a 3060 ti good?

[rough oar]

Ehh its a push but if ya cant get any better deal or wait for a best buy drop or win newegg shuffle then i would

[humble schooner]

Id say thats a decent price

[mighty jolt]

I would buy a 3060ti for 600

Not the best but just to have a peace of mind

[hybrid garnet]

That's about what they're going for retail right now, unless you're lucky and get the FE from best buy for $400.

The ROG STRIX B550 is on sale but I don’t have the money

[fringe urchin]

get an x570

i have a b550 with my build and my lord is it. strange.

but hey it works

[lone depot]

no ive changed to many times and i like the B550 so im staying with it

[hollow prawn]

no need for x570 tho

[lone depot]

plus ROG STRIX B550 is perfect for my build theme

its a bit off from straight red

[hybrid garnet]

Few people actually need the features from X570. "Future proofing" isn't a thing, because it's a dead platform now anyway.

The result is there's more negatives than positives about X570

[fringe urchin]

i have that one too

mines white

[lone depot]

Noice

How bright is the logo?

[fringe urchin]

im not sure actually! i havent finished my pc because i dont have a gpu

[humble schooner]

[fringe urchin]

but its strix so its gotta be pretty bright

lol

[rough oar]

If im correct you can change the brightness through the provided software for the lighting

[frozen gazelle]

What's bad about having a x570 motherboard?

[nova geyser]

More expensive, usually worse vrms than a good b550, chipset fan has a possibility to fail

[abstract prawn]

Plus some X570 boards lack some features, like the TUF Gaming boards, the Plus lacks bios flashback and lacks the second M.2 heatsink the B550 Plus has

[dapper bolt]

X570 are usually expensive and performe almost equal as B550

[true furnace]

B550 even better tho

Better power delivery

Good day all. I need some advice. I'm looking to purchase a laptop for school purposes. I'll be doing online coursing and I need it to have MS Word and PowerPoint. I'm looking for something portable to take to work. I'd also like to be able to watch Youtube, Netflix and listen to Spotify. I won't be doing gaming on it. It can't be a Chromebook as I won't have connectivity at work. Suggestions? Thank you in advance.

[unborn phoenix]

First and foremost what is your budget

[cinder raven]

^

if budget is not a big deal, M1 Macbook Air tbh

[humble schooner]

And are there any required specs for a course?

[cinder raven]

does all the daily stuff good and will be reliable for a while unless you have special apps that aren't translated and emulated for arm64

long battery life too

doesnt get hot or makes little tiny amount of noise

[unborn phoenix]

Honestly I would say M1 as well if budget is of less concern

[cinder raven]

https://www.apple.com/shop/refurbished/mac/macbook-air

[unborn phoenix]

What I’m stupid

I’m so stupid

You need it for MS word

That’s windows

[cinder raven]

ms word is on mac too.

so is powerpoint.

they're apps.

[unborn phoenix]

Oh

I should go

[cinder raven]

excel, the entire thing.

if he's not using it for gaming and what's a normal laptop that is reliable, then i don't see the point in why you wouldn't

[winged lantern]

I can do about $700. I already have a really good laptop for gaming and everything else. It's a 17" screen. I could use it for what i'm looking for, but i don't want to drag it to work. Plus something smaller i can take to a cafe as i probably won't be studying much at home due to distractions.

[cinder raven]

if you want something on the windows side, you can get an acer

the macbook air is just small and lasts long

does all the normie stuff

you could probably get an android tablet like a samsung tab s7, windows apps and all that basic stuff is pretty much on all platforms.

[winged lantern]

I'll look into the suggestions. Thank you all.

Sn550 500gb is like $52 rn

[cinder raven]

Is it triple or quad

Didn’t they have a problem with the recent ones

[tawny shoal]

Keep in mind they changed stuff out but you may get lucky and get a pre-changed one

[hybrid garnet]

Doesn't matter

[unborn phoenix]

its $52 for an sn550

[cinder raven]

🍿

[hybrid garnet]

They changed it sure but only affects a small number of use cases

[tawny shoal]

Wd tweaked some stuff and made it worse when slc cache was full but that's it's ig

It was free on steam few days ago

[tawny quest]

i heard that there is a difference between macos and windows version of office, but idk what it is

[humble schooner]

Oh

[lone condor]

There is

Things are moved a bit.

Outlook is completely different.

[glass mason]

that was a free to play weekend

[tawny quest]

i never really liked office, I usually just use google docs or adobe if i need something fancy

[humble schooner]

Plus you dont need to pay for docs

[tawny quest]

best deal you can get for a document editor: free

[novel mortar]

i dont pay for office either

[acoustic lagoon]

Whoever pays for a document editor...

[tight walrus]

i will give anyone 5 bucks for a rtx 3090 take it or leave it

[true furnace]

lolol

[cinder raven]

Yeah I use google docs too

But my place of work as long as I’m employed gives me the office 365 with 1tb cloud storage

[rancid helm]

a great deal, i too am willing to give anyone 5 bucks for a rtx 3090

[potent cradle]

i got a better one, im giving 10

[rancid helm]

how dare you

[rough oar]

Tempting

[deep sun]

Hi! I was told I could ask some technical questions? I am not toooo knowledgeable. I am looking for the best powerline Wifi extender for my house to my mini house. Any suggestions. D-link doesn't have what I need.

[rancid helm]

Powerline adapters and wifi extenders are different things im pretty sure

Unless there are combo units?

[wide trout]

they are very different things

oh wait i see what you are saying

[nova geyser]

Think they looking for powerline with wifi option in the powerline thingy, bad words but ye

[hollow prawn]

Maybe they were talking about PoE into a wifi extender..?

[wide trout]

i feel like access points arent hard to find tho...

[hybrid garnet]

Get a mesh router for that imo

Easier than router, powerline, repeater, repeater

[novel mortar]

Yeah don't like repeaters and stuff degrade the connection too. Like half your speed n stuff

I Definitely want to get a mesh set up in my house when I get one

[hybrid garnet]

Yeah repeaters effectively cut your speed in half, since half the antennas are used for communicating with the other access point and half to your devices

[lone depot]

Ooh congrats on mod assist

[novel mortar]

Thanks

I earned it

Jk

[bleak pike]

@lone depot @tight walrus try to keep the product trade/negotiation out of the server. I believe this rule goes up to the TOS of Discord, not just the mods' and admins' rules

[lone condor]

Now that I didn’t know.

[bleak pike]

I was in another server a long time ago. the host was a YouTuber trying to negotiate with Discord to allow selling in servers

crappy mods though. don't know if they're still there. I was banned for basically no reason lmao

[lone condor]

Rip lol.

[rancid helm]

F

well, those were jokes so it probably is fine? depends on how strict the mods are though

It was very clearly either a joke or poor attempt at trolling, if it appeared serious in any way they would have been deleted

[tall elm]

Good deal or no?

[hybrid garnet]

I'd look into more reviews for that model but the parts alone are good

[tall elm]

Great performance and ranks with most top laptops

[nova geyser]

There's a gigabyte 3070 130w tdp for 1800 I'd get that instead

[tall elm]

God you’re obsessed with gigabytes I’ve been looking for stores that have it on display to check it dont worry

[hybrid garnet]

Obsessed? Not really but they do have some good stuff

[nova geyser]

No just a nicer laptop

For 100 less

[tall elm]

I really want an msi tho

[nova geyser]

Why?

That's not even msi?

[hybrid garnet]

Honestly, it doesn't pay to be brand picky right now

You’re right

The gigabyte looks like a good deal
