[hollow grail]

whats happening with the norton person

[ripe wedge]

norton being dumb and person freaking out over norton being mad at norton

[hollow grail]

honestly symantec is good but norton is kinda oof

[jagged ember]

Norton is just oof

[vestal stratus]

norton was preinstalled for 30days

i got 10days left

[ripe wedge]

dont use the last 10 days

case solved

[hollow grail]

@vestal stratus https://download.eset.com/com/eset/tools/installers/av_remover/latest/avremover_nt64_enu.exe

run this

[vestal stratus]

im doing a full scan

whats that?

[ripe wedge]

kinda spook link

[lucid rock]

So is anyone able to help me with my Dell problem

?>

[hollow grail]

@ripe wedge i directly link to downloads so i dont get ppl being total and clicking the wrong thing and trying to blame me

[ripe wedge]

its dell debug for your model pc, id look up on google your models debug sounds and see which one it is

[hollow grail]

will safely and completely remove norton

[lucid rock]

its not a Debug tho im pretty sure

sense its coming through the headphones

[ripe wedge]

yeah because its your only speaker

[lucid rock]

its not coming from the pc/motherboard its self

[ripe wedge]

sometimes if the pc doesnt have a speaker it might do it through headphones

what kinda pc is it?

assuming its an oem

[hollow grail]

@vestal stratus you can also use this http://liveupdate.symantecliveupdate.com/upgrade/RnR/NRnR.exe

direct from norton

[vestal stratus]

why is the link downloading something

i dont trust u

[hollow grail]

because its a direct download link

[ripe wedge]

its an uninstaller tool for norton

[hollow grail]

well thats your loss if you dont trust me

[vestal stratus]

so what does the download do

[hollow grail]

ask literally anyone here i know what im doing

[vestal stratus]

sorry i aint that pro at windows

[hollow grail]

antivirus tools have special ways to uninstall them

this is so malware cant shut them down

[vestal stratus]

and im extremely paranoid when it comes to this stuff

[ripe wedge]

because they hook to the pc basically lol

[jagged ember]

Windows uninstall doesn't always do the job lol

[hollow grail]

you need the special uninstaller to completely remove the AV

[hollow grail]

which i have just linked

[jagged ember]

Other than a full windows reinstall that is your best option

[hollow grail]

now

what id do

@jagged ember the tool works perfectly, they dont need a reinstall

[jagged ember]

I know

[hollow grail]

tfw i cant link to my av site cause weggbot would nuke it from orbit

[jagged ember]

I'm just saying that's the only other way for clean norton remove

[hollow grail]

yep

[jagged ember]

Without the tool

[ripe wedge]

I know a website that would scare the poo out of him

[jagged ember]

Lttstore.com?

[hollow grail]

lmao

[ripe wedge]

https://clickclickclick.click

[hollow grail]

hahahahaha

[jagged ember]

[hollow grail]

[jagged ember]

B u t t o n

[hollow grail]

https://www.emsisoft.com/en/home/emergencykit/download/

[vestal stratus]

[hollow grail]

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/1c8e4461714b6ea09b76365b0404a8dccda8412694bf21183a420f4a328b8cbf/detection

[jagged ember]

Epic virustotal

[hollow grail]

literally from an antivirus vendor

[vestal stratus]

dude what are all these links

[hollow grail]

their direct link

[lucid rock]

Still no need to be rude like that

[vestal stratus]

im shi33ing myself

[ripe wedge]

there is more than 1 app to uninstall antivirus lol

[hollow grail]

dont try to bypass filter

[jagged ember]

There's multiple ways to do the same thing

[hollow grail]

i sent you the norton uninstaller

now i sent you something to scan your pc afterwards

[vestal stratus]

il ping theo

for approval

please

i am scared

[jagged ember]

👀

[hollow grail]

iirc theo doesnt know abt malware anyways

[jagged ember]

Is he gonna do it

[hollow grail]

10000% hed just do exactly what i did and call you dumb for pinging him

[vestal stratus]

whats wrong with doing it

[jagged ember]

Lol

[vestal stratus]

@muted patio

[lucid rock]

Why dont you guys just stopping messing with them

[jagged ember]

Seriously though

The links are fine

[ripe wedge]

^

[jagged ember]

I trust them

[hollow grail]

@lucid rock because im actually helping

[ripe wedge]

lili has a google server

[vestal stratus]

click it and send me pick them

[hollow grail]

true

[jagged ember]

I go click now

[hollow grail]

@vestal stratus you overestimate how much i care about helping you

[lucid rock]

Calling some one who is new to pc stuff stupid and telling them to just do it

thats a dickish thing to do

its rather rude

[hollow grail]

@lucid rock im telling them not to make me justify every thing i send them because im busy right now and im taking time out of my day to help them with their issue

[ripe wedge]

its rude to not to tell them to do anything at all

[lucid rock]

and it makes people hate the over all community do to hoorible experinces

[jagged ember]

Kek I'm on mobile tho

[hollow grail]

and i dont want to type a paragraph for every tool i send

[jagged ember]

But you get the point, it's safe

[hollow grail]

of course its safe lmao

[jagged ember]

Damn my slow data tho

[hollow grail]

rip

[lucid rock]

LiLi your being extremely rude if your busy then dont help

[vestal stratus]

im new to windows i dont trust anything cause if something happens to my laptop then my parents will kill me and also i need this for school

[jagged ember]

He's got a fair point, better safe than sorry

[vestal stratus]

so i get really paranoid at this stuff

[ripe wedge]

@vestal stratus if you just wanna wait on it you can wait until a techie or a mod will come to the rescue and tell you to do the same exact thing you can

[hollow grail]

thats fair, im a systems administrator, i managed computers for a living

[lucid rock]

if your busy and your going to pull the whole " im busy right now and im taking time out of my day to help them with their issue" thing

[hollow grail]

youre safe with me lol

[lucid rock]

then just shut up and go back to what ever is more important to you

[vestal stratus]

ok then

[jagged ember]

You can just wait for techies to tell u the same thing radical

If u don't trust lili

[vestal stratus]

send me 1 link that is the safest link

and not scary

[jagged ember]

Lol

[ripe wedge]

google.com

[hollow grail]

you can wait for the techies to back up everything im saying to you if you want

[jagged ember]

Both the links before not scary

[lucid rock]

I can already tell yall have made this person annoyed and even worse off by having a bunch of people telling them to just click what you send

[jagged ember]

Lili mind sendomg them again?

[hollow grail]

https://norton.com/nrnr

[vestal stratus]

tell me what they do if u can

[ripe wedge]

does nothing

[hollow grail]

@ripe wedge should have downloaded the removal tool

[ripe wedge]

ah might just be my browser

kek

[jagged ember]

Firefox is weird sometimes lol

[hollow grail]

looks like chrome to me

also jake

jake cmon man

[jagged ember]

Using brave should work

[hollow grail]

adblock plus?

@jagged ember brave is chromium based, same thing

[ripe wedge]

lol

[jagged ember]

Yeah, I know

[ripe wedge]

yeah I have adblockers

[jagged ember]

Too lazy to install chrome

[hollow grail]

jake why not use ublock

wtf man

[ripe wedge]

I use ublock

[hollow grail]

do you run like 3 at once

[jagged ember]

I use unblock

[hollow grail]

oh lol

u do

[jagged ember]

And multiple others

[hollow grail]

ultra secure

[ripe wedge]

yeeee

[hollow grail]

i just use ublock and pihole

[ripe wedge]

I run adblock, adguard, and ublock

I also have an adblock adblock killer as back up

[hollow grail]

@vestal stratus the link i just sent downloads norton's removal tool

[jagged ember]

I can't confirm cause I'm on mobile

[hollow grail]

that will be sure to purge every trace of norton from your system

[ripe wedge]

it does download it

[jagged ember]

No pc access out here

[hollow grail]

@jagged ember its literally norton's website

[jagged ember]

Oh yeah lol it is

[hollow grail]

smh i miss my old server everyone just listened to me

[jagged ember]

Lili it's cause ur not techie

[hollow grail]

i know

i really need that role tbh

[jagged ember]

:(

The role finds you

[ripe wedge]

maybe you will be chosen one day

[hollow grail]

i better be

[ripe wedge]

just keep on giving good tech advice

[hollow grail]

i feel like i know enough abt storage to be let in just for that tbh

but

[ripe wedge]

idk how bryce got techie tho

[hollow grail]

@vestal stratus here is the full support article

[ripe wedge]

[hollow grail]

https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/v60392881

[jagged ember]

@vestal stratus

Uninstaller

[ripe wedge]

safest link ive seen so far

[jagged ember]

If u don't trust norton's own website

I got nothing to say

[hollow grail]

if you still want to scan your computer and make sure nothing is on it, emsisoft has a portable (do not need to install it) virus scanner at https://www.emsisoft.com/en/home/emergencykit/download/

youll be able to see if theres any malware running on your pc because at default settings, norton doesnt catch too much

[ripe wedge]

im trying to remember the other antivirus that I trust

ah

bitdefender

[hollow grail]

emsi is better

[ripe wedge]

never really heard about it

when did they come out?

[hollow grail]

theyre more enterprise focused

[jagged ember]

Ic

[hollow grail]

but they have consumer products as well

bitdefender is good but weak to js malware and PUP

[ripe wedge]

must be good if forbes and bbc trust it

[hollow grail]

emsi uses their own engine that is designed to only kill js malware and PUP

then use BD engine for everything else

[ripe wedge]

and wired

ill bookmark this website

[hollow grail]

@ripe wedge "must be good if lili recommends it" more like smh

[ripe wedge]

lol

I put it in my cyber sec folder

[little osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/ping-military-movie-meme-who-pinged-me-angry-gif-16193027

[ripe wedge]

funny but mods wont like it

[little osprey]

i got pinged

[hollow grail]

fr its great jake

i got my old work to switch to their enterprise sku

[ripe wedge]

oooo

[hollow grail]

and used to have 100 seats on my personal account for enterprise

i can prolly talk to my rep to get them extended tbh

[ripe wedge]

do they have active security?

[hollow grail]

you mean AD protection?

[ripe wedge]

or whatever ya wanna call it

like real time protection

[hollow grail]

yes

they are also the ONLY av to get a clean sheet in my testing

[ripe wedge]

like against all sorts of viruses?

[hollow grail]

i slammed it with over 1tb of samples

[ripe wedge]

dang

lol

[hollow grail]

nothing got through

emsisoft literally emailed me and was like

[ripe wedge]

where did u get the 1tb of samples tho

[hollow grail]

what the hell

[ripe wedge]

lol

[hollow grail]

i have my ways >:))))

[ripe wedge]

im guessing one of those virus dictionary websites

err like

idk

im too tired to think of what to call it

[hollow grail]

my friends run honeypots

[ripe wedge]

ah lol

so im guessing he saved all the files to a drive

that it was attacked with

[hollow grail]

and i know VX so i get all his samples too

[ripe wedge]

VX?

[hollow grail]

semi famous malware archiver

[ripe wedge]

ah thats the word I was looking for lol archive

[hollow grail]

but yeah anyways my point is if you need more than defender id go with emsi

10000%

plus unlike BD

they dont bundle useless trash in

[ripe wedge]

[hollow grail]

no vpn, no special stuff

literally just

here is the protection

enjoy

[vestal stratus]

Hey lili

that dude helped me out so much

his honestly amazing

[hollow grail]

who lol

[vestal stratus]

pancakestack

he showed me his screen and gave me step by step instructions

[little osprey]

nice.

[hollow grail]

good for them

[blazing aurora]

is an i5-10400 + rx580 good for 1080p @ 75hz

[little osprey]

depends on the game
the gpu gonna be a bottleneck in most situations

[blazing aurora]

so i should probably spring for a 1660S or 2060 then @little osprey

[muted bear]

Vous avais FORNITE???

[jagged ember]

English only pls

Honestly 580 should be good for 1080p medium 75fps

Check video game tests using a 580 on google

They'll give you a decent idea of what to expect

[little osprey]

depends on how they gonna cost next year

you got a 580, i would hold it for like till 3050 is out and 20xx goes down in price

[jagged ember]

2000 will never go down kek

No production anymore

[muted patio]

They quit makeing 20xx dies

[jagged ember]

Very dead

[little osprey]

could be possible but eh

[jagged ember]

Without fresh stock, idk

Maybe, but highly unlikely

I wouldn't bet on it

[blazing aurora]

yeah i'm not holding my breath for 20xx price dips

i think i'll hold the 580 for a bit like kad suggested

[jagged ember]

Yeah, hold on

[blazing aurora]

i got it for pretty cheap so hopefully i can flip it for a profit later on lol

[jagged ember]

Hopefully

[little osprey]

yeah, hold till 3050 and see if the price is worth for it

[jagged ember]

Hold for at least 3060

We dunno if 3050 is even gonna be real

[little osprey]

there is plenty of rumors/leaks so i guess it's gonna be real
unless nvidia says nah and cancel any possible launch for a 3050

[jagged ember]

We will see for sure

[little osprey]

ye

[jagged spire]

Yo

Sup

I need to get some pc parts and I have $250 what parts should I get

[hollow grail]

what parts do you have

[jagged spire]

None lol

[lilac delta]

250$ for a pc

[hollow grail]

save more

[lilac delta]

that isnt going to get you anything

bro

[jagged spire]

Not for a pc

I have a $1000 budget

[lilac delta]

then you shouldve said that

[jagged spire]

But $250 bonus for Christmas

[lilac delta]

do you have pc building knowledge

[jagged spire]

Yeah

[lilac delta]

ok so i suggest

an amd ryzen 0

a gtx 110

[jagged spire]

K lol

[lilac delta]

and 2 gb of ram

[hollow grail]

can you not meme here please

[little osprey]

it's possible actually

[lilac delta]

i am incredibly sorry for I was making too much jokes

[small osprey]

Wait so u have $1250 total right

[little osprey]

but it's gonna be used stuff

[jagged spire]

Yeah

[lilac delta]

you can probably get some good stuff for a 1250 budget

[small osprey]

Hmm rn isnt the best time to get a pc due to stock issues and overpriced stuff

[lilac delta]

true

[jagged spire]

Yeah I know

[small osprey]

If things were normal probably a 3060ti, 5600x

[jagged spire]

But is there any parts I should prioritize on Christmas

[small osprey]

Hm

Maybe if stuff goes on sale u could get ram mobo psu case and stuff

[jagged spire]

K

Ty

[weak yarrow]

this an ok mobo? https://www.newegg.com/asrock-b550-taichi/p/N82E16813157938

[urban trellis]

@weak yarrow that Mobo is good but it's hella overpriced

[weak yarrow]

ok

[hollow grail]

asrock is meh tbh

[urban trellis]

Yea I would go for a Asus X570

If u got that budget lol

[muted patio]

TUF X570 with WIFI is $189. Has everything the high end boards do

[placid notch]

I just ordered the parts for my pc. What else do I need to consider to have before they arrive?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tYgn9N

I already got thermal paste and some screwdrivers

[small osprey]

You bought a 3070 for $800??

[placid notch]

Noo

[quick shore]

bros I am back

[placid notch]

Idk why it says the price there

Got it for retail

[small osprey]

Ah ok

Hmm not much u need just some screwdrivers tbh

[quick shore]

I ran a memtest on a kit of ram that I previously used and got an error on pass 5

[placid notch]

Ok good

[still roost]

assassins#1305 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[placid notch]

Let’s hope that i don’t mess this up lmao

[small osprey]

Its not that hard

If ur stuck watch ltts build vid or smthn

[placid notch]

Yea I guess the only part I’m gonna fk up properly is cable management

[small osprey]

Lmao thats true

Just plan out all the cables from psu and whatnot before u stick the mobo in the case

[placid notch]

I just realized our retail price here is 112$ above US retail

Lmao

[hollow grail]

move

[placid notch]

Euro ftw

[muted patio]

I would recommend returning that PSU for a better one. That's a Tier D PSU in tests. List here: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list-40/

And also under the recommended wattage for a 3070

[hollow grail]

butterknives are illegal where you are

@muted patio i see thermaltake psu and i know its d tier

[muted patio]

not all of them

That one in particular

Plus under the recommended 650W which is worse

If it was quality, 600W is fine

But.....

[hollow grail]

i treat evert tt psu like its d tier

hasnt let me down yet

[small osprey]

Hmm yea maybe get like a seasonic gx focus or smthn @placid notch

[hollow grail]

seasonic is fine

be quiet is fantastic

superflower is also excellent

[small osprey]

Corsair good but overpriced

[placid notch]

Okay I just cancelled the PSU

What about be quiet! system power 9 600W?

[muted patio]

I mean, that's slightly better but still under 650watts

[hollow grail]

aim for 650w

[muted patio]

Are they expensive where you are or something?

[placid notch]

So 650W it is aight

Let me see

Well

[hollow grail]

and cant go wrong with be quiet

[placid notch]

There are 2 available here

[muted patio]

be quiet is still Tier C

[placid notch]

Corsair CV650
And
Seasonic Focus GX

Both 650W but the seasonic is double the pric

Price*

[muted patio]

That's a Tier C but proper wattage

Acceptable, the Corsair

[placid notch]

Corsair it is

It’s even less expensive than the first one lol

[muted patio]

Seasonic is expensive beacuse it's quality

I mean, you dropped $500-600 on a GPU

Treat it well

[small osprey]

I would say get the seasonic

Corsar cv aint good

But if u wanna lower costs get the corsair

[placid notch]

Yeah I guess If I’ll wait a week I’ll just get the seasonic

[muted patio]

It's Tier C, the lowest I would go for a 3070. Especially one that OC's and goes past the rated 220W

[placid notch]

Instead of the seasonic I could get a be quiet! Pure power 11 700w for the same price

Is that a higher quality one?

[muted patio]

no

https://linustechtips.com/topic/1116640-psucultists-psu-tier-list/

[placid notch]

Okay this one lists as Tier A

Bitfenix | Formula Gold

And it goes for ~70 bucks (30 less than the Seasonic)

I guess it’d be a good pick being at the threshold of 650W?

[quick shore]

@muted patio I ran a mem test on my 3200mhz kit of ram

on the 5th pass I got an error so I stopped the test

I’m going to do a mem test on my 3600 kit today when I get home to see if that gets any errors

Also does anyone here have an ARESGAME psu? I’ve been seeing they are the only psus on amazon Rn for a good price

[nimble sinew]

The tier list is OP

I'm still waiting on an rx850. Then I can build!

[hollow grail]

tier list is nice for sure

personally i care more abt failure rates though

[dense sonnet]

What up peps!

Has anybody use the lian li galahad aio ?

[stoic island]

GN has reviewed it.

https://youtu.be/2FTtBHKMOAM

They also did a teardown

[dense sonnet]

Yup saw that just wondering if any has use it there option on it

Opinion on it my bad

Looks sick my opinion

[stoic island]

Tbh I trust GN's review over some random folks over the internet, and do remember, it only came in stock like 2 days ago, so I doubt many have theirs, even if they ordered one.

[nimble sinew]

As long as it's not EK or TT

[stoic island]

..?

[dense sonnet]

True i order mine already going in my lian li dynamic case

[hollow grail]

ek is alr

[stoic island]

Fair

[hollow grail]

TT is flaming garbage

[stoic island]

Ek-aio is pretty good

TT just doesn't do anything well atm

[hollow grail]

or ever

[stoic island]

I mean they have made decent PSUs in the past

[nimble sinew]

My issue with EK comes down to quality control.

[hollow grail]

yeah but thats not even them

[dense sonnet]

Now the wait game till I can get 5900x and 6800xt

[stoic island]

True

[hollow grail]

they rebranded from an alright oem in the past is what ur meaning to say

tt has never done anything to ever make them worth seeking out

[stoic island]

I mean, can't check atm, but like Corsair worked with CWT for a custom platform for some of their PSUs

As an example

[hollow grail]

fair

but iirc tt has never done that

[stoic island]

Fair

[hollow grail]

only psus ive ever had pop on me are tt as well

hell ive had rando china ones that are more reliable

[stoic island]

Wonder if Orionpsudb will ever come back

[nimble sinew]

TT has caused me too many issues.

[hollow grail]

got some free coolmax psus

ended up buying a bunch more cause for $30 they were some decent little units

threw them in some systems i was building

never got any complaints

[dense sonnet]

Nice

[nimble sinew]

Oh. HI LILI! 🥔

[hollow grail]

hiiiii

[stoic island]

Hi

[nimble sinew]

I like nzxt aios

[dense sonnet]

Yea but bit prize

[hollow grail]

theyre meh

[nimble sinew]

They're just so expensive.

[hollow grail]

expensive for what they are

but wew they nail the aesthetics

[nimble sinew]

The corsair AIOs are on sale atm.

[stoic island]

I don't like NZXT AIOs for their price

[nimble sinew]

I might pick up a 360mm

[stoic island]

If NZXT AIOs are priced more like Corsair AIOs maybe I'd be fine with them

[nimble sinew]

Yeah!

[hollow grail]

i just avoid corsair for some reason

[stoic island]

But like 150$ for a 240/280mm aio is crazy

I don't like Corsair nowadays

But their AIOs are decent

[hollow grail]

their ssds are cute

and that is IT

[stoic island]

I think standard asetech design

But PSUs

[dense sonnet]

Was going to get the nzxt but the white lian li galahad will look bad ass

[nimble sinew]

Corsair has started to head towards the "we're corsair so let's charge $20 more on everything."

[hollow grail]

honestly for systems i care abt ive almost always gone BQ or high end EVGA

or delta

[stoic island]

Anyways lian li galahad outperforms the x72 I'm pretty sure so yea

Hm why bq

Why not br

:p

But yea that's fair, G2 P2 T2 are great

For EVGA high end

[hasty bobcat]

I simp for P2

[dense sonnet]

👍🏼

[hollow grail]

lmao

[nimble sinew]

P2 op

[stoic island]

I would for all of em

[hollow grail]

i just like be quiet tbg

literally a brand u cannot go wrong with

[stoic island]

I don't like their PSUs lol

[dense sonnet]

[stoic island]

For only one reason

They gave x00w PSUs and not x50w

[dense sonnet]

I dont like the looks

[hollow grail]

[nimble sinew]

Psu shrouds

[hollow grail]

and that

[stoic island]

I'm like yea 450w is enough but I don't want to check if 400w works

[hollow grail]

every good case has psu shrouds

[stoic island]

Every good tower case

[nimble sinew]

True.

[hollow grail]

id say every good case in general

[nimble sinew]

My room is too cold.

[stoic island]

Nr200

[hollow grail]

unless ur stupid niche

[nimble sinew]

How many 2u servers would it take to raise the ambient temp to 68?

Nr200.

[hollow grail]

psu is hidden

i count that as a shroud

[stoic island]

Not if you use the clear side panel

[hollow grail]

where is it

[nimble sinew]

Gosh, that case is so nice.

So MINIMALISTIC!

[hollow grail]

i dont get sff

[hollow grail]

[nimble sinew]

Small desk space

[stoic island]

Tg side panel as an option

[hollow grail]

@nimble sinew floor

[nimble sinew]

Small floor space.

Also, carpet

[little osprey]

Didn't stop me

[hollow grail]

floor

[little osprey]

Built it on my bed

[hollow grail]

rack it and stfu

thats my motto

[little osprey]

And it's on carpet rn

[nimble sinew]

Screw it to the wall.

[hollow grail]

[nimble sinew]

Wall PC

[little osprey]

Hang the parts from the ceiling

[nimble sinew]

Now we're thinking outside the box!

[little osprey]

I've seen a pic on Facebook where someone did that

[nimble sinew]

Or... DESK pc

[stoic island]

I've seen a pic of a guy duct taped to the ceiling gaming

[little osprey]

They also had a industrial vent fan installed above it as well

[jagged ember]

Duc tape

Just make a case out of cardboard

Put all the parts in there

Ez

[little osprey]

Make a case out of a xbox shell

[nimble sinew]

I mean. If it works, It works.

[fossil halo]

ayo

is an sshd worth it

[dapper jasper]

it’s just a hard drive with a different type of cache, it does speed it up a bit but your choice

[fossil halo]

and also

[nimble sinew]

I need to assemble the janky 10400 build.

[fossil halo]

is the 2.5'' measurement

for the ssd diagonal

and can u mount a hdd in an ssd slot

wait nvm

dumb question

[muted patio]

2.5" drdive is the width

[quick shore]

does Corsair have warranties for their ram?

[little osprey]

hello

@stoic island

do i get a 1050ti or an rx570 4gb

i have a gt710 from an old acer pc the xc605 to be exact

@here

[proven ocean]

rx570

a lot of 1050's are scams

[dapper jasper]

lul both em cards overpriced af

[little osprey]

ik

i need this pc by jan

for school

[dapper jasper]

for school

[little osprey]

and gaming

[dapper jasper]

lol

[proven ocean]

what cpu do you have?

[little osprey]

1600af

[dapper jasper]

what about checking b-stock

[little osprey]

@little osprey get the 8gb version

Not much more

ik it is the 8gb

[dapper jasper]

EVGA b-stock usually has the 1650 super for $175

[little osprey]

What you posted is the 4GB

Ah

Lol $1 less

Lmao

no is 9.99 shipping on the rx570 8gb

so the 1050ti is cheaper here

[dapper jasper]

neh 1050ti is dead

[little osprey]

1050ti sucks tho

Even more so than the 570

better performance

[dapper jasper]

570 is mediocre at this point in life

but I mean if that’s all you’ve got

[little osprey]

Both are mediocre

[dapper jasper]

yep

[little osprey]

Not really

[little osprey]

not really, if the 1050 ti has a vga port, it is a scam and if the paint is like something fancy with nothing on the center of the coolers

[little osprey]

i meant which has the better perfonmance

570

^

[proven ocean]

fair

[little osprey]

ok

[dapper jasper]

bstock check bstockkkkkkk

[little osprey]

I would, but I'm downloading ubuntu

so rx570 it is

Yep

you paying 200$ for a 570?

bruh.

It's gonna be slow, but it's better than 1050ti

[hollow grail]

get a used 570

[little osprey]

@little osprey I payed $150 for mine back in September

Used for a month, then sold for $150 to get a 5500xt

used 570 is like 100$ or less

[dapper jasper]

they do have the 1650 super for $175 in bstock rn

[little osprey]

what about this

[little osprey]

how much you paid for 5500xt tho?

Idk

$300

Maybe

[little osprey]

[dapper jasper]

challenger d laughing out loud

[little osprey]

i will only get new parts

[hollow grail]

grab soon ends 3 hrs

[little osprey]

that is my policy

I mean it's same price as 570, but better performance

[dapper jasper]

that’s a cringe policy

[hollow grail]

stupid policy

[little osprey]

smooth brain policy

well i live overseas

[little osprey]

Was an Asus rog strix 5500XT OC

and they dont allow for used stuff to come in

[dapper jasper]

bruh

[dapper jasper]

no that sucks

specially the model

[little osprey]

More than 570?

[dapper jasper]

challenger d runs howt

[little osprey]

ok

too expensive for me

anyway

It wasn't that much more than 570😂😂

[dapper jasper]

idk I would have to look at benchmarks again

[hollow grail]

if you only have 200 for a gpu, save

[little osprey]

^tbh

.

All my first parts were cheap

I upgraded them in a month

[hollow grail]

you buy cheap, you buy twice

[little osprey]

i have an old gt710

I've upgraded everything but my cpu rn

what can i do with it

play games lol

Throw it away

[hollow grail]

video adapter

@little osprey 710 is fine

[little osprey]

710 still can game
but not that much.

[little osprey]

Was a joke

[hollow grail]

hehe ik

[little osprey]

if you have a 710, use that till like next year

prices are gonna be way better

like this one

nice.

can it run basic task

[stoic island]

@little osprey gtx1650 super

[little osprey]

it is 220usd

[little osprey]

ofc it can

Welp, ubuntu is downloaded and installed

Time to set everything up

[stoic island]

better than the other two

[little osprey]

nvm fount at 189.99

it can run most basic things
and can play light games like starbound, stardew valley and some 2008-2010 games

can i use it for a ubuntu system

with a 320gb samsung hdd

Sure

yep

ok

Do you have a minimum of 4gb ram?

[little osprey]

i picked 16

i will make the system to be dual boots

I don't think that'd be possible

I could be wrong tho

very overpriced

[hollow grail]

ehh not too bad just also not too good either

and pls dont tell me youre booting off of that 320gb hdd

[little osprey]

this a good case

yes or no

[hollow grail]

i like rosewill cases

[little osprey]

@little osprey look into Rosewill Challenger S

I used to have one, is decent for the price

over budget

for a ces

My favorite case is corsair 4000D

case**

For cases, you get what you pay for, especially for one with 3 built in fans

[little osprey]

wait wait...dual boot on a hdd of 320gb?

[little osprey]

Idk, don't question it. It's a budget build

[olive roost]

If I were to start a business building computers for people how much should I charge to do it
I'm thinking 50-100

[little osprey]

Most budget builds I've seen dont stay as budget builds for long

@olive roost I do a $50 service fee myself

i have this

can i reuse the case

Get a laptop

no od

[little osprey]

i do

have 1

[hollow grail]

i question it because ssd is cheap now and 320gb hdd havent been made for a long time, esp by samsung

im guessing its from around 2008-11

[little osprey]

yes

it was mfd 2012-4

[hollow grail]

eyyyy i was close

[little osprey]

wanna have a look

wait

[hollow grail]

one of the last samsung drives then, they stopped in around 2013

id get a cheap ssd tbh

its the biggest thing you can do to increase system speed

[little osprey]

Yeah, Kingston has a 1tb for $50-75 I believe

[hollow grail]

kingston is trash

[little osprey]

here

[little osprey]

So is a 570 and a 1050ti, your point?

[hollow grail]

oh thats even worse lol

[little osprey]

acctually 2010-10mfd

[hollow grail]

@little osprey no like ur prolly talking abt the a400 and thats like e tier ssd imo

[little osprey]

5400 rpm...oof

He's on budget so....

[hollow grail]

5400rpm laptop drive

[little osprey]

the wd one is 5400rpm

samsung 7400rpm

[olive roost]

@little osprey where do you advertise your service?

[little osprey]

i will use both drives

[hollow grail]

@little osprey and you know the drive stays with you the second longest when you upgrade piece by piece

[little osprey]

@olive roost dms

[olive roost]

Dms?

[little osprey]

@hollow grail 😂😂😂

[hollow grail]

you know what im talking about hehe

so you know you wanna have something decent in there

[little osprey]

[little osprey]

@hollow grail I maxed out my drive slots

[hollow grail]

[little osprey]

Also, god ubuntu is slow

yes

[little osprey]

anyone

[hollow grail]

[little osprey]

[hollow grail]

ubuntu is h e a v y but generally its pretty snappy

[little osprey]

lol sff case

[nimble sinew]

Look at my beautiful baby! https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qcKZXb

[little osprey]

it is currupt

[nimble sinew]

It is so cute!

And sub 600!

[hollow grail]

thats a build alright

[little osprey]

go for a 1600af

better perf

[grand goblet]

Would a Phanteks Eclipse P500 Air DRGB Case with a Phanteks SK 140 PWM Fan work without a fan controller or extra accessories with a ROG Strix B550-F MOBO?

[hollow grail]

1600af sux

[little osprey]

5usd cheaper

[little osprey]

y

[hollow grail]

1st gen ryzen is oof for a lot of reasons

[little osprey]

not really lol

[hollow grail]

10000% would rather i5

[little osprey]

ye

though would be nice to upgrade that mobo

[little osprey]

A samsung 860 evo 1tb

My nvmes are full with a) windows and b) games

[hollow grail]

should be fine if u did everything right

go to terminal rq

type sudo apt update

then sudo apt upgrade

might just be that it doesnt have everything ready yet

[fossil halo]

i have a gt 710 too wow

[grand goblet]

Does anybody know if a Phanteks Eclipse P500 Air DRGB Case with a Phanteks SK 140 PWM Fan work without a fan controller or extra accessories with a ROG Strix B550-F MOBO?

[hollow grail]

@grand goblet #cases-psu-and-cooling go bother someone there

[fossil halo]

it will work with the b550

idk about fans

fans are

jkjk i have 5 argb ones in my build

[fossil halo]

ayo btw

check the used market if u need a pc super quick

[still roost]

SavageJacek20#9089 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[hasty bobcat]

wow

[fossil halo]

u can get a rx 570 for like 100 usd

if u need a pc really fast then just build something really cheap rn and then upgrade when the new stuff comes out

[hasty bobcat]

rainbow fans are 🏳️‍🌈 cuz theyre rainbow

[fossil halo]

thats why im running a r7 3700x and a gt 710 LOL

waiting for rtx 3060 or 3050

i just want 75 fps on epic settings with ray tracing in fortnite

oh frick looks like i wont be getting 60 fps on a 3060

[little osprey]

@fossil halo just use GeForce Now

You can get max fps WITH ultra graphics AND RTX

sure

[fossil halo]

ik that

i used to use geforce

waiting times are stupid

takes literally an hour now

LOL i can run fortnite on my gt 710

at like 50-60 fps

bc of the new performance mode

[mellow basalt]

Does anyone know what mpg means for the motherboards?

[hollow grail]

miles per gallon

[blazing aurora]

lel

is the 10400 worth the $50 jump from the 10100?

or is the 10100 good

[red oasis]

Is it safe (static electricity wise) to build my pc on my bed?

[dapper jasper]

no

unless you ground your bed after sleeping

[red oasis]

Lol

So i have to build it naked on floor tiles while touching the ground of my electrical outlet?

[dapper jasper]

connect the psu to the outlet and touch it frequently

off psu off

[red oasis]

Got it.

[mossy plaza]

should I buy this

https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4199040

or a Ryzen 7 3700x

[tight quartz]

is part availability right now pretty shit? thinking about starting a build but heard parts are a lil scarce rn

[scarlet flower]

Opinions? For a first computer I think it doesn’t seem bad but I’m open to ideas

[urban trellis]

@scarlet flower i would either upgrade the gpu or degrade the cpu cuz your over spending on the cpu while your gpu isn't that good

And you might have a bottleneck

[scarlet flower]

I’d like to get a better gpu but they don’t exist atm

I’m trying to get something hopefully by next month so I have something for games and then I can use it for college stuff

[urban trellis]

Ok

I see

And change your ssd its a sata ssd not a nvme

You can get a we blue nvme for the same price and it will be faster

Wd

[scarlet flower]

Mmk cool thanks homie

[urban trellis]

Np

[scarlet flower]

So if I were to stick with that gpu for now and say swap the cpu to a ryzen 5 3600 would that be better compatibility

Or still a lil overkill on the cpu

[fallen escarp]

can i make a PCPP list for someone

ploz am bored

[indigo crescent]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NZFP8J

Is this a good one

Making it for a friend

[fallen escarp]

seems good

[little osprey]

is this any good for a buget build

it is the cheapest b450 mobo

[spice ibex]

Would a rtx 2060 be a decent gpu for Cold War?

[indigo crescent]

B450m ds3h v2 is the same price

[knotty agate]

yes without a doubt

[hollow grail]

dont get that ssd

[scarlet flower]

I changed it

[hollow grail]

to?

[scarlet flower]

Or well I had a different one already in my wishlist

[fallen escarp]

can i make a pcpp list for someone please im bored T-T

[hollow grail]

people here like the team mp34

[little osprey]

it is currently the cheapest even after the sale ends

[scarlet flower]

I had the one lightning said already

[hollow grail]

eh

id get the mp34

[scarlet flower]

I’ll check that one out

[spice ibex]

Would this be a decent pc setup cause I already have a pc with a i5 7th gen and gtx 1060 3gb but I want to take the gtx 1060 3gb out cause I want to get a new one but would that work well? Since I want a 2060 6gb?

Would the whole PC work well?

[indigo crescent]

Yes

[little osprey]

yes

but like make sure the psu supports it

nthn else

[spice ibex]

Would I need to buy a a new power supply

Cause I don’t know too much about PCs so I need y’all guys help

[little osprey]

what is the current ???w

[spice ibex]

Idk

[little osprey]

check

lol

@spice ibex dm me

[spice ibex]

I do know what pc I have I have a hp omen

But I wanna add new parts

[little osprey]

oh no

[spice ibex]

To make it better for cod

[little osprey]

oh no

[indigo crescent]

Make a $1500 list stock does not matter and you can use msrp

[little osprey]

big oh no

[scarlet flower]

@fallen escarp you could make me one😳

[indigo crescent]

Do u actually need one @scarlet flower

[hollow grail]

hp men

[warped scarab]

If my graphics card has two 8 pins, I have to connect of them in right

[hollow grail]

yes

[scarlet flower]

Well seeing that I currently don’t have a computer and a pretty bunk list of stuff atm I’m open to other peoples concepts and ideas

[warped scarab]

Doesn't matter which 8 pin goes to each right

[indigo crescent]

What’s ur budget

[scarlet flower]

Prolly like 1200-1500

[indigo crescent]

Ok

[knotty agate]

good price range

[indigo crescent]

Might take a while to@make sure everything works

Together

[scarlet flower]

Tacobell don’t pay very good and I spent too much on my car😂

Or I’d cash out on somethin

[knotty agate]

1200 will get you a pretty beast gaming rig

[scarlet flower]

I bet. the part I’ve been struggling with atm is finding a good gpu for a somewhat decent price

[vital warren]

1200 should be like 3070 + 5600x

ez

[scarlet flower]

Swag

[knotty agate]

if you can even get a 3070 lol

[vital warren]

not that hard

[scarlet flower]

Some dude in alaska was selling a 3070 founders on fb market place for 650

[vital warren]

eh not really worth

[scarlet flower]

He lived close but never answered my message

[knotty agate]

retail price was 500

[scarlet flower]

Damn

[knotty agate]

but scalpers raised the price like 200+

[scarlet flower]

Ima pull up at his house and hit a lick😤

[knotty agate]

woahhh

[scarlet flower]

Lol

He was selling it because he said it wasn’t powerful enough

[indigo crescent]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YjLyHz @scarlet flower

Lmk if u want a cheaper one

[scarlet flower]

Kk Lemmie look

[indigo crescent]

3080 is non existent atm

[fallen escarp]

ok

[upper cobalt]

it’s like 20 dollars more for a 2tb hdd

[hollow grail]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/K2ZQK3

[upper cobalt]

[indigo crescent]

Ok guess we’ll just get a 3070 then so we can get that extra terabyte 😣

[boreal valley]

my first build: everything listed as $0 was a hand-me-down
https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Hakurei06/saved/qXJqkL
My current build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Hakurei06/saved/qjZ4sY (at least, when the parts come in)

[scarlet flower]

I like it I assume finding the gpu would be the hardest part

[indigo crescent]

Definitely

[scarlet flower]

On the other one Lili posted it had an available 3060ti if I swapped from the 3080 to that would it still be solid

[upper cobalt]

you can check r/hardwareswap

[boreal valley]

since i've basically replaced everything but the psu and the fans, as a joke, i bought a s**tty rosewill case/psu combo for 50 dollars to shove the old build in, since i already junked the old one i started with.

[hollow grail]

if its the one im thinking of its decent actually

[scarlet flower]

I’ll check that out

[little osprey]

@spice ibex

[boreal valley]

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16811147317

i mean the case isn't the worst thing on the planet, but the psu is probably not good for much besides mobo killing

[little osprey]

tower with already installed psu...uh oh

[boreal valley]

the biggest detriment to the case is front panel airflow, which wouldn't be an issue if you drilled some holes in it or used an aio
