Yeah the 1650 isn't so bad though

[earnest olive]

e5-1660 is $60, e5-2665 is $8.69

[fast dirge]

For Photoshop/Lightroom would you want better core speed or more cores?

[earnest olive]

ah, the e5-1650 is is $22, not bad

e5-1650 turbos to 3.8ghz on 6 cores, e5-2665 turbos to 3.1ghz on 8 cores

[potent portal]

The 1650 beats it in both single and multi core so it's a moot point

[earnest olive]

interesting

[potent portal]

http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Xeon-E5-2665-vs-Intel-Xeon-E5-1650

[fast dirge]

Where you seeing it for $22?

[earnest olive]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/255459779049

hmm passmark places the e5-2665 higher in MT

but not that much higher

[potent portal]

By 150 points lol

[earnest olive]

yeah, e5-1650 is probably a better choice

guess there's a reason the 2665 is $9

$22 is still a great price

[fast dirge]

For sure, $22 is still great

[potent portal]

I have the 1650 in my home server, it's great for plex and storage

[earnest olive]

hmm any chance the e5 v2s work in that board?

[fast dirge]

Can I just take the old CPU out and drop this in?

[earnest olive]

yeah absolutely

[potent portal]

Depends on bios

[fast dirge]

But nothing else physical? No extra bits or whatever?

[desert gulch]

Does he have extra paste or is he gonna run pasteless?

[earnest olive]

gonna need new thermal paste yes

[desert gulch]

Like $5 for a tube

[fast dirge]

Ya, I'll grab a tube 😊 thanks for the reminder

[desert gulch]

Np

[earnest olive]

i forgot too lol

[desert gulch]

xD

[earnest olive]

interesting

this workstation got a bios update in 2019

it doesn't say anything about adding support for v2 cpus though

[potent portal]

I'm not seeing v2 anywhere either

[earnest olive]

of course dell would distribute a bios update as an exe

[fast dirge]

I'm out for now - thank you so much! I'll be back of I need help with the BIOS ☺️ have a good day y'all 🥳💖

[earnest olive]

oh, the v2 cpus use a different chipset (C602)

[earnest olive]

you too

[worn wave]

T3610 are V2

T3600 are V1

[earnest olive]

oh, interesting, the e5-2687W apparently works in the T3600

that's an 8 core with the same turbo clocks as the 1650

$44 though

not officially supported due to too high TDP but i saw some people saying they got it running

[potent portal]

You could probably ask our resident xeon lover

[earnest olive]

far?

[tribal crater]

I have my pc built and have a lot of rgb from different companies, ordered a new keyboard Corsair K100 and theNexus to go wit it. Will the Icue software cause me problems with with all my other rgb? Do I chance connecting these or just return them and get the Logi G915 lightspeed keyboard to go with my mouse? I really don't want to have issues with all my RGB getting messed up as it was a pain to get everything from all these places to sync up in the first place. Anyone have experience with Icue working with other parts and software from other companies?

[potent portal]

When you're mixing vendors like that sometimes you'll have luck using signalrgb or openrgb, so you can use a single program for all of them

Or at least use that for most and the incompatible stuff can use its own

[tribal crater]

Not trying to use or sync Icue just use it for the keyboard stand alone and the nexus aas a monitor

[potent portal]

(stupid nvidia FE cards only work with PX1 software)

[earnest olive]

icue is the problem

openrgb does work on corsair keyboards

not sure about corsair mouse but probably

[tribal crater]

Thank's right now it's all synced with fusion except for one of my back fans which is TT and I do run my ram seperate with Gskills trident as it just has better looks then fusion offers

Got a Logi gaming mouse only thing Corsair would be the keyboard and the nexus. I probably should have got the keyboard to match the mouse but really liked this old corsair keyboard

[potent portal]

Logi mice work in openrgb

[earnest olive]

can confirm that

i love openrgb

[tribal crater]

Probably just get the G915 keyboard then and return this Corsair stuff

[earnest olive]

once i build my new keyboard openrgb should also support it over QMK

[potent portal]

I use it in my linux install. Syncs all my stuff except my gpu.

[earnest olive]

are you on the latest version?

the latest version started supporting all my gpus

[potent portal]

Even the 30 series FE?

[earnest olive]

oh

probably not lol

i don't have any FE cards

isn't the led in the FE card white only?

[potent portal]

Nope, there's 2. One is white the other is RGB.

The "GEFORCE RTX" is white

[earnest olive]

interesting

[potent portal]

I'm on 0.71, is there an update?

[earnest olive]

0.7 is the one that started supporting all my gpus

[potent portal]

Yeah latest official release is 0.7, I'm on a version I compiled that's newer

[earnest olive]

[tardy knoll]

What's this coord that ABS never hooked up for on the back of the Mobo that says PC data?

I'd assume feeds overall PC data to something but? It's not in use lol

The back of this PC is a mess so many things are intertwined instead of just layered I'm gonna have to unplug basically everything. Any videos y'all would recommend on better understand what all these diff wires are for? Watching build videos isn't very helpful it's always just watching them put stuff together with minimal explanations because they expect the viewers to already know the basics.

[potent portal]

That's the rgb controller

If the rgb is working and you can control it with software then that wouldn't be necessary to plug in

[earnest olive]

probably to hook up the RGB controller to software sync

[tardy knoll]

I haven't been able to do anything to the LEDs on the cpu fan. The front fans of case have a button on top to cycle thru multiple modes.. but I'd like to be able to sync CPU fan and the front fans. As well as maybe add some fans in the top of the case if I ever start working this thing hard lol

[tardy knoll]

Where would it plug in?

Dang I didn't know there were PC building simulators that's pretty cool

[earnest olive]

motherboard RGB header

[tardy knoll]

So it's currently plugged into the back of the Mobo and gets plugged into Mobo somewhere else? There's also 2 plugs on the end that isn't hooked to anything

these PC building simulators are freaking awesome. Watching a YouTube about it..that could be a helpful way to learn

I wouldn't know what to do with one currently though. I need to know more about the diff parts used still

I couldn't even tell you where the ram stuff is on the Mobo. It's really bugging me I can't find like a clear cut way to just learn this stuff. So much nonsense on YouTube

Or stuff already past my knowledge level

I'd love to get control of all the RGB on this PC though. Can even the strip under Asus on the GPU be changed??

[earnest olive]

where is it plugged in on the mobo?

[tardy knoll]

Here

[earnest olive]

oh i thought you meant actually plugged into the mobo

[tardy knoll]

Top left corner says PC data. Then it's not hooked to anythjnf else and has two plugs on the end of it

[earnest olive]

that's the rgb controller it's not part of the mobo

[tardy knoll]

Oh I thought that was backside of motherboard my bad

[earnest olive]

if you hook it up to the mobo then whatever is plugged into it (probably the fans you can't control) can be software controlled

(probably)

[tardy knoll]

Hm.. well what about the button on top of the case that does those 3 fans would I need to change that too?

[tardy knoll]

So is one of the two plugs from the cpu fan that are plugged into Mobo for the LEDs and could be plugged into the controller instead?. I see now, the 3 front fans are only thing hooked to the controller.

So I could get it all on the button for the case couldn't I?

I feel like one of the plugs is in fact for the CPU LEDs and could be plugged into that controller on the rear. But the spot it's plugged into now on mobo says "Add_gen 2.2" ?

[earnest olive]

that is the correct header

for ARGB

so your software can control the cpu fan but not the case fans?

you could plug the cpu cooler into the controller than plug the controller into the mobo

unless your mobo has more than 1 argb header then you could just plug the controller into the other header

[tardy knoll]

I don't even know if I have any software. The cpu fan is on default I guess. And I control the front three case fans with the button on top of case that goes to the RGB controller on back of PC.

I'm so confused what to do. The cpu fan RGB is plugged into this individual RGB spot,

Couldn't I just move it to the RGB controller on the back....or if plug the PC data coord in from controller to mobo will I get control of cpu fan that way?

[earnest olive]

yes

[tardy knoll]

Yes to which option? Both?

I can't figure out where the PC data plugs will go on the Mobo either. I don't see where it would fit.

I'm so lost this is getting frustrating

[potent portal]

If you connect the CPU fan to the controller it'll sync.
What's the other end of the PC data cable look like, the side you said isn't plugged in?

[high yew]

is there a HUGE difference between a Asus KO 3060 ti OC and an Asus KO OC 3070 ? debating on a $100 price difference for the 3070

[little osprey]

how much is each

[high yew]

not worried abt pricing tbh, anything under $900 for a gpu is cool, i just wanna know if there’s a huge difference between the two

[high yew]

^

[desert gulch]

You have 900 for a gpu?

The 3070ti for $720 is a decent deal rn

[high yew]

cad i should mention sorry, didn’t think it would matter about pricing - just wanna know if there’s a huge difference between the two

[desert gulch]

I mean for a 100cad difference the 3070 would be very similar dollar to performance as the 3060ti

[little osprey]

what resolution you playing at

[earnest olive]

3070 vs 3060ti is like a 15% performance difference, your call whether that will be worth it for games you currently play or games you plan to play in the future

[high yew]

1440p

[little osprey]

if the games ur playing are gpu demanding i’d go for 3070

[high yew]

waiting for the right gpu to go on sale, 3070 Asus KO OC model

[little osprey]

Otherwise 3060ti is perfectly fine

[high yew]

sounds good man thans

thanks*

[little osprey]

What games u playin tho

[earnest olive]

both are fine at 1440p, but I'd rather have the 3070 at 1440p personally

[high yew]

sounds good, i’ll shoot for that. $850 for the 3070 KO OC

[earnest olive]

I dailied a 3070 at 1440p for a bit

[little osprey]

If u can afford the 3070 go for it

cad

[high yew]

only really demanding game i play is DL2, WD2, and maybe RD2, but everything else is good

yes lol

it went up $100 which i’m waiting for it to drop

[earnest olive]

850 cad is alright

yeah around 700

[high yew]

679

yup v2 too

[earnest olive]

but you guys have higher tax too

[high yew]

yeah 11%

[earnest olive]

so closer to 700

[high yew]

so $850 is actually

[little osprey]

tax is like 10.5 here 😭💀

[high yew]

943

which is ew but

[earnest olive]

oh only 11?

that's not that bad

[high yew]

yeah 5% gst 6% pst

[earnest olive]

my city is at 8.75, my gf's city is at 10.25

[still roost]

j.acob#7187 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[high yew]

smh

y’all are so lucky, this cad tax shiznit is brutal

is what i MEANT to say

[little osprey]

It used to be 9.5 here but now it 10.5

[earnest olive]

we're lucky until we need an ambulance

[little osprey]

fr

[high yew]

$945 for a 3070 KO OC V2

what y’all think?

[earnest olive]

wow rommy

[high yew]

WAIT A MINUTE

wait

[earnest olive]

I thought you loved me

[little osprey]

after tax?

[high yew]

it’s original 799.99

$888

[high yew]

after tax

[earnest olive]

but I am healthy

[high yew]

if it goes down another $100 which is what i want

799.99 x 1.11 = $888

[earnest olive]

my brain is a geforce 210 with a core2 duo e8400

[high yew]

3070 KO

[earnest olive]

and 512mb ddr2

[high yew]

gota add the ddr2 ram😎

LMFAO

[earnest olive]

running microsoft bob OS

[high yew]

pain

Windows Vista

[earnest olive]

off of a 2gb ide hard drive that makes demon noises

okay

bring your 3090 over

we will play fortnite rtx

[little osprey]

no building 💀

Boba is mid

[earnest olive]

sure I'll treat you

I actually had a 3 slot SLI bridge

but I sold it

idk who actually bought that

[little osprey]

Chef rommy

[earnest olive]

it came with a mobo I bought for a customer

why bundle an SLI bridge in 2021 lmao

[little osprey]

isn’t sli basically a meme now

since you don’t gain any practical performance from it

[earnest olive]

SLI generally decreases gaming performance now

seen up to 40% decrease in some games

[little osprey]

But it’s good for like GPU heavy rendering stuff right

[earnest olive]

with 2 2080ti in nvlink vs 1 2080ti

I don't think you even need nvlink to do multigpu renders

just have the gpus in there

[little osprey]

Wait facts

[earnest olive]

but I'm not sure, I don't render

I know my 3070s are able to do innocent cuda workloads together without any kind of link

[little osprey]

Smh

[tardy knoll]

A 3 pin RGB plug and a plug that says gdv

[earnest olive]

i remember seeing 4 gt 710s in sli

[little osprey]

Bro

Just get a better gpu

[earnest olive]

lol

4 gt 710 worse than 1 gt 710

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3clc38zvwA

[little osprey]

So much effort wasted

[obsidian wigeon]

sli bad

[tardy knoll]

I just plugged cpu fan into the RGB controller... Plugging the controller into Mobo isn't giving me control thru the software. I think it's conflicting with the case button that can also control the controller... So I just put CPU plug into controller for now and can control it all with the button on the case

[tardy knoll]

That's as close as I can get until I ask abs why I being plugged into the Mobo isn't working

[tardy knoll]

Figured out issue. Gotta tell case I'm using Mobo and aura sync instead of button

[mossy venture]

The all new 2840

[tardy knoll]

Yayyyy

I got all my RGB working on aura sync now

Robeytech discord helped me out. It was just the case button conflicting the Mobo having control of the rgb

[little osprey]

w

[fast dirge]

Does it matter what str rating you use on a CPU?

Str rating thermal paste*

[obsidian wigeon]

What str?

w/mk you meant?

[fast dirge]

Stc sorry

[obsidian wigeon]

[jagged ember]

that is still confusing

[obsidian wigeon]

Still confusing

[jagged ember]

stc isn't a rating as far as I know

[fast dirge]

Thank you 😊

[shy coyote]

Just built a 12400 tower

love it

m.2 4.0 rocks !!

[little osprey]

Yay cool

[potent portal]

Arctic mx4 is good and cheap

[celest horizon]

mx-5 is great as well, buy whatever is cheaper in the quantity you need

[tardy knoll]

Also found my new favorite type of remixed music. Drill remixes... Makes sense as I did percussion in highschool and was on quite the good team

[potent portal]

Music synced lights are so fun.
I like my rgb practical so it's set to CPU temp color.

[tardy knoll]

Yea they are. And these drill remixes have me stoked. It's like the type of music I've always needed. As in a way I'm always added onto beats in my head or drumming with my hands when I listen to certain songs. Need to get a soundboard and start trying to make my own remixes as I can definitely come up with the beats just need to learn to use the software etc

[shy coyote]

just built a 12400 tower

w/ a 3060

[tardy knoll]

Was on indoor drumline in highschool and we placed 11th in the world our first year doing it. And performed horribly at that lol, we'd been practicing in a high school gym for months and then all the sudden in a nfl stadium the sound was so off we all dragged time because it caught us off guard.. still took 11th lol

Ok it's official. I'm ordering a soundboard soon

I've had it in my head for years I wanna make remixes of songs and just add on to the beats. And now I'm finding people already do it. Oh I'm in lol, I bet I could destroy some songs

[little osprey]

Nice you on 1080p?

[shy coyote]

2 x 27" 144hz @ 1440p

[little osprey]

Ah cool

[shy coyote]

love the m.2 4.0, so fast !!

Crucial P5 m.2 4.0

[potent portal]

Yeah, and you'll be ready once more games support Microsoft direct storage. Nice.

[shy coyote]

The i5-12400 is plenty powerful too

and good value

With the asus b660 mobo, you actually get m.2 4.0 on primary m.2 slot, coupled w/ the Crucial P5 Plus m.2 4.0 it is actual read speed of 6600Mbps

[little osprey]

that’s insane

Mines is like 1500mbps max

[strong raft]

8 thread gang. Bye bye 3550.

[earnest olive]

@sacred rivet curious about the decision to get braided gpu power cables but not braided mobo power cable?

[sacred rivet]

Have the braided one, but wanted to get the system up and running before I bothered with the install.

[earnest olive]

i see

nice build

[little osprey]

Hy-510

(dont)

[little osprey]

Now time for lga2011

[earnest olive]

you missed an lga2011 chat earlier

though it was C600 and not X79

[little osprey]

Just as good

C602 is still 💪

[earnest olive]

dude came in asking about upgrades for his dell precision T3600

recommended an e5-1650

[little osprey]

Yea that's a good chip, though I'd probably go for an ivybridge one

[earnest olive]

couldn't find any proof that it supported v2s

[little osprey]

Fair enough

[earnest olive]

couldn't find any bios updates from dell that suggested it either

bear in mind it is dell we're talking about lol

[little osprey]

My dad got himself a z420 a few days ago, has a 1650 in it

[earnest olive]

think dell would rather you buy a T3610 than upgrade the T3600 to a v2

[little osprey]

definitely

[strong raft]

Yeah I caught part of the talk. I'm reall unfamiliar with 2011 & most xeon stuff in general. Running cinebench as a quick speed/temp check then I'll try 3dmark before some gaming. Extra cache & 100MHz was a small bonus to 2x cpu threads. 3535 on cinebench. Max temp 51c & 49w says hwinfo

[little osprey]

yea the e3 xeons arent particularly interesting imo, but its still cool how they're basically slight upgrades to their i5/i7 counterparts while also being cheaper

[strong raft]

For sure. Instead of $60ish, it was $35ish so definitely worth a try. Worst case it just makes a slightly better spare rig. Oh yeah I ran 3dmark. Gained a solid 800ish cpu pts seems pretty healthy. Might have a bit lower cpu usage & better 99% lows in a couple games. Also found an 11700 I'm gonna bid on.

[little osprey]

yea thats pretty cool

it's good how slept on these older xeons get

the 2680v3 is down to about 55 bucks, it's crazy

[junior crescent]

Could someone make a pc list for 2000 AUD, for 1440p Ultra settings gaming, Game creation (Unity, unreal engine) and some light video editing

[stoic island]

I felt like I made one 2 days ago

[olive cypress]

On my mini homemade PC the back panel of the case is completely open and I'm scared of the back part of the CPU, I don't want to accidentally touchi it, short it, or anything...
What should I cover it with?

[frank stirrup]

anything thats non conductive

[olive cypress]

Give me a few examples of what could I use (something that I probably have at home)

[fossil cedar]

Plastic, cardboard

[olive cypress]

I'll check what I've got
Thank you

No heat problems since the 2400g stays at 23°C at idle

🥶

[fossil cedar]

Yeah that's pretty normal

What happened to your back panel of the case?

[olive cypress]

Became the front panel

Because the case is homemade

I cut it

[fossil cedar]

Ahh

[olive cypress]

This ugly thing here

(in this foto the panel is not mounted)

[wooden quartz]

Do there numbers look good?

[frank stirrup]

electric tape as well as what pato said

[fossil cedar]

@orchid ruin please god no not ubm

[orchid ruin]

ubm?

oh

why not

[fossil cedar]

But why

[fossil cedar]

!ubm

[still roost]

`UserBenchmark is NOT a reliable source of information and has been blanket banned in many hardware communities such as r/hardware and r/intel for what started as an anti-AMD bias but has spiraled into delusion.

In fact, they tried so hard to skew results in favor of Intel's midrange that they even cannibalized Intel's own high end. For example, according to UserBenchmark, the i3-9350K is rated higher than the i9-10980XE.

For a similarly convenient quick-and-dirty hardware comparison website, we recommend using PassMark instead of UserBenchmark.

[orchid ruin]

okay then

ill do heaven benchmark

anyway

I replaced the cooler with the latest noktua one because why not

and it ended up amazing

thank you so much!

[fossil cedar]

If you want a good gaming performance benchmark use 3d mark timespy

3dmark demo is free on steam

[orchid ruin]

ill use it then

ill ping you when its done

[fossil cedar]

I've never even heard of that before, what are you trying to test?

[tiny pelican]

Pato

I got the PC

Processor Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2640 0 @ 2.50GHz, 2500 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 6 Logical Processor(s)

[frank stirrup]

what gpu?

[tiny pelican]

GIGABYTE GeForce 1660

[frank stirrup]

nice

[tiny pelican]

thats the best i could do in my budget

[tiny pelican]

wanna guess how much this cost?

[fossil cedar]

Ntb

How much?

[tiny pelican]

480 USD

88500 my currency

@fossil cedar

look in #build-pics

[buoyant abyss]

Hello all

[fossil cedar]

You don't need to put in build pics btw but nice

[buoyant abyss]

I'm trying to put together a computer and would like professional help in looking over what I've chosen

[fossil cedar]

Not a professional but i know my stuff... What country are you in what's your budget and what will you be using the pc for?

[buoyant abyss]

U.S. 1500-2000. Day trading.

Here is what I've selected so far

[fossil cedar]

Okay that will get you a fantastic pc... How many monitors do you want to power?

[buoyant abyss]

ryzen 5900x
Asus AM4 Tuf x570 plus wifi
Crucial balistix 3200 32 GB
MSI Ventus rtx 3060
Corsair 4000D case Mid
Corsair 750 Watt power
Corsair Hydro series H100i liquid cooler

Looking to have the option for 4 monitors

Wasn't sure about 5950X or 5900 and about the motherboard. Going for the B550 or 570

Also Rog Stix v Tuf

[tidal moth]

what do you want to do with your computer?

productivity?

or gamuctivity?

[fossil cedar]

I'll put together a list of what i would do

[buoyant abyss]

Productivity

Speed, stability

Not going to be gaming much, if at all.

[fossil cedar]

@buoyant abyss how many displays are you going to be running and what resolution?

[tidal moth]

well the 5950x is a really capable productivity cpu

I have one and its amazing

[buoyant abyss]

2 to start then 3 then 4

[fossil cedar]

Okay 👍

[tidal moth]

so olmo my 5950x shreds premier pro and blender

so if you want to render and compile

its pretty beast

[marsh sluice]

I have both 5900x and 5950x. Both are great cpus and capable for your tasks. I would think the internet/networking speeds would impact you more.

[tidal moth]

yeah thats true

I cannot speak for the 5900x

but im sure they are both awesome

[buoyant abyss]

From what I've read it seems like both would be good. I'm just really ignorant and trying to make the best choice.

I would like it all to last as well.

Don't want to re do this too often

[tidal moth]

they are really comparable cpus

the 5900x is very slighty better for clock speed

but the 5950x makes up for it with core count

the price tag of the 5900x is really nice for what you get

but the difference begins to show on seriously taxing renders and video editing

[buoyant abyss]

Thanks

[fossil cedar]

@buoyant abyss i would do this
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/r2PF8r

[tidal moth]

what is budget?

[fossil cedar]

1500-2k but that's perfect for what they want

They're gonna be doing trading

[tidal moth]

nice thats perfect

[fleet heron]

Trading?

Wdym

[fossil cedar]

They're gonna be doing trading as in stock n shares

[fleet heron]

Oh

[tidal moth]

I hit 25w on one of my 5950x cores so theoretically you could hit 400w on the cpu alone

so if I would upgrade it would be the psu

but thats right on budget

so its swag

[fossil cedar]

750w is plenty for a 5950x and a 3050 tho

[tidal moth]

yeah definately

just if he wants to expand his gpu

gives him options in the future

[fleet heron]

Y'all know to much lmao

[fossil cedar]

If they want more than 4 displays just add another 3050 or something

[tidal moth]

ahh

did not consider that

just thought they would get a big boy gpu

thicc

potentially

hahaha

im used to itx builds

[fossil cedar]

No point since they don't even need 3050 power just the ports lol

[tidal moth]

I only ever build its I forgot several slots exist lol

[little osprey]

new gpu have so many ports

[tidal moth]

itx

[fleet heron]

You can have 2 GPUs?

[little osprey]

My itx card has two ports 😭

[tidal moth]

yes~

[fossil cedar]

Ye does nothing for gaming tho

[little osprey]

Yeah or three or four if you’re feeling spicy

[fleet heron]

Daymmm

[tidal moth]

for a while they messed with nvlink

[little osprey]

I don’t see a point of 4 gpus unless you’re like mining

[tidal moth]

but its a fallacy now

a dead concept

no moe gaming

[fleet heron]

My dad has beefy PC and I always wonder why he had to GPUs

[fleet heron]

Two

[tidal moth]

probably for monitors

[fossil cedar]

Only reason to have more would be mining or Gpu heavy compute or just to power a lot of displays

[tidal moth]

a lot of displays is the best non mining reason for having two gpus

because they only have so many slots each

[fleet heron]

I don't see the point for 2 lol

[fossil cedar]

Gpu rendering

[fleet heron]

Ah

Oh

[tidal moth]

my brother has a 2080 on his gaming monitor and his 1650 on his other monitors

[fleet heron]

Hm

[earnest olive]

why add another 3050 just for display

gt 1030 good enough

[tidal moth]

or a 1650

[fossil cedar]

True but dont they usually have ancient ports

[earnest olive]

sadly gt 710 no longer good enough as it'll hold you back from installing newer drivers

uhh

hdmi and dvi usually

[tidal moth]

yay

[earnest olive]

dvi can easily be adapted to hdmi

[fossil cedar]

Dvi :/

[tidal moth]

we love dvi

stop hating pato

[fossil cedar]

Yeah

[earnest olive]

I mean what's cheaper? a dvi to hdmi adapter, or a 3050

lol

[fossil cedar]

True lol

[little osprey]

Dvi is nice because it’s not vga

[earnest olive]

I just bought a dvi to hdmi adapter for $0.47 + $1 shipping

[tidal moth]

the chad port

dvi is gaming

the pure gaming essence

[fleet heron]

How much are 3050s anyway?

[earnest olive]

and it's one of the rigid adapters that sticks off of the port, no annoying cable

[little osprey]

ideally $249

[tidal moth]

right now or msrp?

[fleet heron]

Daym

[fossil cedar]

Good one

[little osprey]

😂😂😂

[fleet heron]

Wym

[little osprey]

Rn you can’t buy it for less than $300

No way in hell

[fossil cedar]

Msrp is manufacturer suggested retail price

[fleet heron]

Not even 300 is a steal

[tidal moth]

yeah so people buy up all the gpus and sell them at a higher price @fleet heron

[buoyant abyss]

I did the pc builder on newegg

[tidal moth]

so the market for gpus is pretty rought rn

[fleet heron]

The other one than lol

[tidal moth]

rough*

[fleet heron]

Ik

[earnest olive]

alternatively if you want more display outs

swap that 5950x for a 12900K

[buoyant abyss]

Would it allow incompatible parts to go together there?

[fleet heron]

Kinda like the ps5

[earnest olive]

and get a mobo with HDMI + DP

[fossil cedar]

Might as well use pc part picker.... Gets you more variety and cheaper prices sometimes

[earnest olive]

banned for not being corporate slave

[fossil cedar]

Ehh for trading i think the extra cores are worth

[tidal moth]

you could use ddr5

[obsidian wigeon]

pc builder on wegg limits parts so much too

[earnest olive]

12900K beats 5950x in MT lol

[obsidian wigeon]

^

[earnest olive]

power draw isn't that much different either

[fossil cedar]

Ddr5 has no use in day trading until it becomes as cheap as ddr4

[earnest olive]

241W PL2 on 12900K vs somewhere in the 200s for a 5950x

[fleet heron]

Ddr5 as in the ram?

[fossil cedar]

It depends on what the benchmark is tbh

[earnest olive]

day traders also typically care about single core performance the most

[fossil cedar]

Yes

[earnest olive]

so 12900K wins there

[tidal moth]

but that 12900k also comes with much more heat

[fossil cedar]

Oh really i thought they needed multi?

[earnest olive]

it really doesn't

[tidal moth]

105tdp vs 125tdp

[earnest olive]

LOL

TDP

fun fact

[little osprey]

Fun fact

[earnest olive]

the formula for TDP doesn't even include power at any point

it's a completely made up bs number

[tidal moth]

interesting

[earnest olive]

I just said 5950x and 12900K power consumption is practically the same at load

[little osprey]

Lol

[fossil cedar]

It's so you can estimate cooler requirements

But basically useless

[fleet heron]

Shouldent we be talking in general?

[earnest olive]

if you put a cooler advertising itself as 125w tdp on either of those chips you're going to have a really bad time

[little osprey]

Nah

[buoyant abyss]

When purchasing windows 11 brand new for new build, get the usb flash? Or?

[earnest olive]

no? we're talking about a build

[tidal moth]

haha ikr lol

[fleet heron]

Oh we are?

[earnest olive]

@fleet heron do you already have a 5950x?

[little osprey]

You can just get a key code you don’t need a usb

[tidal moth]

that would not be epic

[fleet heron]

Huh

[little osprey]

😂

[fossil cedar]

You don't need to purchase windows 11, you can do windows 10 or just leave it unactivated

[earnest olive]

you should switch to 12900K if you don't have the stuff already

[little osprey]

Bro is so confused

[fossil cedar]

They got nothing so far

[fleet heron]

Nope I've got 20$ in my bank acc

I sold my pc

[earnest olive]

12900K has better single core, better multicore, and will get you more display outputs

[little osprey]

Sheeeesh

[earnest olive]

$20?

[fleet heron]

And brought some stocks

[earnest olive]

ok, get a core2 duo

[fossil cedar]

Wrong guy

[fleet heron]

Kk lol

[little osprey]

W

[earnest olive]

oh

[little osprey]

Lmao!!!

[fleet heron]

Yea..

[fossil cedar]

Olmo is the one building

[earnest olive]

oops

[buoyant abyss]

I've been using a macbook for a long time, not much other experience

[earnest olive]

well

[little osprey]

Core 2 duo gaming

[earnest olive]

get a 12900K

[tidal moth]

my brothers 12900k hits 96c on 280 rad thats my reference point

I have reseated it for him

[fleet heron]

Apple doesn't really offer anything for gaming

[tidal moth]

he just ocs it to hell

[fossil cedar]

They're not gaming .......

[earnest olive]

and my 5800x hits 90C on a 360mm rad

[little osprey]

You don’t consider apple arcade as gaming?

[earnest olive]

what about it

[tidal moth]

my 5950x peaks around 81

[little osprey]

🤖

[tidal moth]

under 100% load

[earnest olive]

also

temps and power draw are only loosely correlated lol

[tidal moth]

yeah that i didnt know

i thought the connection was more concrete

[earnest olive]

zen 3 taught us that heat density is far more important now

[tidal moth]

just my point of reference is my brothers cpu

[earnest olive]

that's why 5800x runs hotter than 5950x

[tidal moth]

my 5950x peaks 15 degrees cooler than his 12900k

[earnest olive]

are you ocing it like he is?

[fleet heron]

Meh not really ngl

[fossil cedar]

Alternatively you could do this instead of 5950x but it's gonna cost more @buoyant abyss
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RqGPVw

[earnest olive]

run 1.4 manual through your 5950x and watch it burn

[little osprey]

I was kidding 😂

[earnest olive]

I can get my 5800x to thermal throttle without overclocking it

[buoyant abyss]

Interestng

[earnest olive]

under a galahad 360

[tidal moth]

no but we have comparable scores

[earnest olive]

and 12 case fans

[tidal moth]

I dont oc my 5950x because of power consumption worries

3080 with 5950x on a 750w powersupply

[earnest olive]

lol you're fine

[tidal moth]

I have hit 25w per core

[earnest olive]

I ran 3600x + 3080 + 3070 on B tier 650w

[earnest olive]

no you haven't

[tidal moth]

I have

on stream

with forks

@ him

[earnest olive]

so you were drawing 430w CPU?

without oc?

[little osprey]

U @ him

[tidal moth]

he helped me set it up

yes

[earnest olive]

lol?

[tidal moth]

@celest horizon

you remember we looked at my cpu

in hwinfo64

[earnest olive]

do you have screenshots?

[tidal moth]

no unfortunately

but i was there with forks

he explained it to me

[earnest olive]

25w per core * 16 cores + 30w soc

430w?

custom loops can barely handle 20w per core

[tidal moth]

I dont understand it like forks

[earnest olive]

you running LN2 on stock settings?

[tidal moth]

no

lol

could be single core?

is that possible

[earnest olive]

single core sure I believe

[tidal moth]

okay that must have been it

but still

[earnest olive]

but no way you hit 25w on all cores

[tidal moth]

im scared of my power consumption

the thing is 2

[earnest olive]

the laws of physics will not allow that

[tidal moth]

my motherboard is itx

[little osprey]

Physics moment

[tidal moth]

whats that thing called

the meme

with power distro on my cpu

power steps?

power stages?

whats that called again

[little osprey]

electricity

[tidal moth]

:/

[earnest olive]

the stock power target for the 5950x is 142W

so if you didn't oc it will begin to throttle at 142W

which is less than 8W per core

7.625W assuming 20W SOC

[tidal moth]

It has pbo enabled

But what is the thing I’m thinking of mushroom

It’s the power steps between psu and cpu

[earnest olive]

you mean... vrms?

what board do you have?

it's not very hard to drive a 5950x on ambient cooling as far as vrms are concerned

[tidal moth]

Yes thank you lol. You know what’s funny is that wallpaper engine in the background was turboing my cpu to 4.7 idle lol. I couldn’t find the source forever. I think forks remedied my power draw issues we sat in vc for a while and he did all the stuff so I’m confident in it now. He scared me a little when he first talked to me not gonna lie haha

[earnest olive]

use a scene instead of a video

scenes take very little resources

video wallpapers will happily load up 40% of your cpu

[tidal moth]

Thank you! That makes sense I’ll try it when I get home

[earnest olive]

i have a custom made scene running on my internal monitor

takes almost zero resources

just filter workshop like this if you're not making your own

[wooden quartz]

It’s just a benchmark test

[fossil cedar]

Yes but what where you trying to benchmark so i can recommend one that actually means something

[wooden quartz]

@fossil cedar Cpu and gpu

[fossil cedar]

3d mark timespy

[jagged ember]

man I gotta learn how to make my own wallpaper engines

[fossil cedar]

@torn peak how did you get a free airflow panel?

[torn peak]

Corsair support. I asked them for one and they said yes @fossil cedar

[fossil cedar]

Oh sweet lol

[fossil cedar]

Did you get the 4000x or 4000d non airflow?

[torn peak]

4000D non airflow

[earnest olive]

I remember when I had a corsair carbide 275r

and the 275r airflow came out

I asked if I could buy an airflow panel and they said no

[torn peak]

Guess you weren't very lucky then

[fossil cedar]

Corsair literally have the 4000d airflow panel on their site but for like 15€/$

Dam

It's also never in stock in the us iirc

[earnest olive]

apparently the 275R and 275R airflow have more differences than the front panel

so they couldn't sell me one

i just sold it and got an actually good case

oh well

[fossil cedar]

Lol

[fossil cedar]

275r h510 edition

[halcyon swallow]

Any reason why this could be happening?

[fossil cedar]

Could be a dodgy cable or driver issue but first make sure you're not using a resolution with an i at the end instead of p - you can check in your graphics drivers

[halcyon swallow]

I’ll take a look at that

Huh it’s set to p, I’m going to reinstall the drivers and restart and see if that will do it

[frank stirrup]

looks like bad cable

[halcyon swallow]

Yeah I’m going to go buy a new one now, what is better hdmi or display?

[fossil cedar]

Depends what versions your monitor and gpu have

Display port is the safer bet tho

[halcyon swallow]

Oh okay ima go yoink one real quic

[wooden quartz]

Is it free

[fossil cedar]

yes, search 3dmark on steam and download the demo

[tardy knoll]

Bad cable or your GPU. My laptop did that at one point whenever I tried to switch from having an extra monitor hooked up to going back to one

[wooden quartz]

Dose anyone know if there a cable to change this to a regulate RGB conector. It eme to to my omen control board

[potent portal]

Is that... a sata data connector... on a rgb controller?

[wooden quartz]

Yes it is

[wooden quartz]

But I don’t need the board any more I upgrade past the omen board and now I’m going to use a b450 ds3h v2 and going to control rgb off of the led cpu port on the board

[rose torrent]

@earnest olive so i maximized the mounting pressure with shorter standoffs than the ones arctic gave me

still thermal throtlting (according to HWINFO64)

at this point i think we can narrow it down to a coldplate based problem

[marsh sluice]

I will assume you didn't do what I did by applying thermal paste and leaving the peel on the coldplate. Don't try to watch the NFL playoffs and install aios.

[vague oracle]

Got it, only watch NBA playoffs and install aios

[little osprey]

Nfl playoffs ended like a year ago

Ñ

N

Wassup bro go to #general-chat

[mossy venture]

So

My partners psu is top mounted, they don't think there's any extra cables connected to it

No extra cables came with the psu

Is it possible for the extra cables to be tucked somewhere up top?

Need just a single 6 pin cable

[little osprey]

Can you have them look and see

Or is that not possible

[young fjord]

i just finished my build and i can't get it to post. everything powers up. I've reseated the memory and went through the connections. I have noticed the usb's are not powering the keyboard or mouse. Any ideas? everything is new but the motherboard

[potent portal]

What motherboard, cpu, and memory?

Is there a debug LED or lights?

[young fjord]

those aren't lighting up either. Z590 plus, i511400 vengence LPX DDR4 16GB

at this point i'm thinking bad motherboard?

[desert gulch]

you have the 8 pin eps power plugged in?

[young fjord]

yes

[potent portal]

The asus tuf z590 plus?

Or the MSI?

[young fjord]

asus

[potent portal]

Ok, and you're saying the debug LEDs don't come on at all?

[young fjord]

nope. not even at power up

[potent portal]

Check the motherboard for bent pins under the CPU

[young fjord]

did that as well and dont see any bent

[potent portal]

You said the board is used right? Have you cleared the CMOS?

[young fjord]

board is used and i did clear the cmos

[potent portal]

Is that the regular 11400 or the 11400F?

[young fjord]

regular

[potent portal]

Take out the GPU and SSD and see if that changes anything

You can plug the monitor into the mobo

[young fjord]

samething

[potent portal]

Yeah that's probably a bad board

[young fjord]

ya i was afraid of that. Just hope it didn't mess anything else up!

[narrow nova]

hey guys i need some help, just built a new pc downloaded all the drivers but i still cannot hear anything and mic isnt wokring on discord

[potent portal]

Are you using the onboard audio for headphones and mic?

[narrow nova]

if you are referring to plugging it into the motherboard then yet

yes

not too sure if thats what you meant

[potent portal]

Yes that's onboard

Front or back ports?

[narrow nova]

back

[potent portal]

Are the plugs in the right spots? There's usually 6 and manufacturers don't always standardize or color code

[narrow nova]

my board only has 3 and Im still not sure if they are correctly plugged in tbh i had a video playing and just kept switching them until i heard something but I still cant hear

[potent portal]

Which motherboard? I'll check your manual

[narrow nova]

asus b550m-a wifi

okay so i just found out that my headset cables are labeled for mic and headset and i see that on the audio driver software it says the green is headphone in and pink is mic but somehow i manage to get sound only when the mic jack is plugged into the audio port

and the sound only comes from one side of my headset

this is so confusing i dont know why only half of my headset has audio now

and my mic still doesnt work

[potent portal]

The problem with onboard mic is usually you need to turn the gain up all the way

Which you can do in the sound control menu

[subtle anchor]

do you think it makes sense to move my OS to a bigger SSD? I have it on a 500gb ssd
but I'm contemplating on moving it to a 2TB SSD I use
if I do this, then I can keep my music plugins and other big installs on my main system drive, and use the 500GB for something else. Not sure what.

I have a 4TB HDD for archive, 2TB SSD, 500GB SSD, 1TB HDD for misc, and a 2TB external seagate usb HDD that's slow as hell

[potent portal]

500GB is more than enough for OS and programs

I have mine on a 256GB

[subtle anchor]

yeah that's smart. I feel like I'm wasting space putting it on the 500 instead of the 2tb

idk, maybe it's not an issue. I feel a little bit like I don't like mixing my data, and I feel the need to 'reserve a drive for x purpose' but I guess that doesn't really need to be the case

like, I guess there's no reason I can't mix and match stuff , like some games on C, some on another

idk

I feel sorta stuck

[potent portal]

It's only an issue if you let it be one.
It would only affect organization of files and you can make links to other drives if you need to.

[subtle anchor]

yeah true

The thing I'm running into is that having my plugins on my 2tb ssd, since it's not my system, some plugins like having access to writing in the registry, resulting in issues if not installed on my system drive (500gb ssd)

so maybe I'll save the 2tb ssd for my big big big big plugins, and just keep the lighter/smaller ones on the 500gb

[potent portal]

How big are these plugins?

[subtle anchor]

keyscape, omnipshere, native instruments, all add up to 400gb or more probably

[potent portal]

Sheesh

[subtle anchor]

yeahh

keyscape and omnisphere is 77 + 60

and I think 300 from native instruments

that's the biggest of them

16gb for my orchestral library

[potent portal]

I've never had an issue with registry specifically like that but in your case maybe it would work better on a bigger drive if that's the problem

[subtle anchor]

and then, for my music projects, including project files, mp3s, stems, etc.,, adds up to probably 200gb

I mean, been a while since I checked but you get the idea

yeah, it just becomes a hassle because some DAWs like fl studio allow you to have multiple paths

but ableton only allows one plugin folder

that's the issue

there's a tool out there to create symbolic links so I might try that

so I can have some on both drives

the other idea I had is just uninstalling all my plugins and starting from scratch

the drawback is that it'd be annoying to reinstall them if I have a project I want to go back to

but honestly, is what it is

I been hurting for a "factory reset" sort of thing, because it's become such a mess in my mind

and well, could be all in my mind truthfully

music plugins just install themselves all in weird places. There's no standard.

I heard a story where one was installed in a folder "stienberg" instead of "steinberg" so the user had 2 different folders

[junior crescent]

Would this be a good pc for 1080p or 1440p gaming and maybe some light video editing https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/RKdF8r

[fossil cedar]

What's your total budget and you forgot a gpu

[junior crescent]

My total budget is 1800 to 2000 AUD, and ye, i forgot to specify that idk what GPU to get

[fossil cedar]

Cool 1 sec

[fossil cedar]

@junior crescent i would do this
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/nxQRTn

[brittle copper]

@potent portal if I verified that the problem isn’t the mounting pressure

And that’s it’s not the radiator cooling

Does that mean the problem is the copper coldplate itself?

[lament fulcrum]

@orchid ruin almost thought that was a p400a lol nice looking build

Anyone know much a pc cleaning may roughly cost? Im trying to get a mint clean bc im not meticulous enough to do it myself

A good spray out is usually good enough right?

[desert gulch]

PC cleaning is basically free

[lament fulcrum]

Im lazy lol

[little osprey]

Nice my PC won't post

Whyd I have to combine the two most garbage ram kits in my daily system bruh

[desert gulch]

Shoulda just used the ballistix oh wait

[little osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/facepalm-really-stressed-mad-angry-gif-16109475

[little osprey]

cries

[strong raft]

Speaking of, the 32GB 3200c16 (ballistix) recently went from $113 to $130.

[little osprey]

it only gets worse from here

unless random warehouses find misplaced stashes of ballistix

[strong raft]

I'm checking Ebay as well. I found a listing w/ a typo so I might get a 16GB kit of it for $50even+tax. There's also various 32GB kits for $110ish still, I just like the 5% back from amazon at least. Also, I finally bought a cpu for the 500 series mobo I've had: 11700F - I'm literally doubling cpu cores/thread again. E8400 to 3550/"3770" to 11gen, lol. Not really any bigger upgrade unless people went 2/3gen to 12gen.

[earnest olive]

rip ballistix

you will be missed

this question does not belong in #building-and-recc-chat

[orchid ruin]

thanks :)

[fossil cedar]

there is a chance they are bad bims as well lol

[fossil cedar]

ram prices have gine up a bit

and ballistix are dicontinuod :(

definetyl spelt that wrong

[stoic island]

Is ok

[fossil cedar]

Thanks lol auto correct was not working on ipad for some reason

How much do you reckon my b450 ds3h would MELT with a 5700x

Box has a really good deal on their ebay... Would probs work to about 250€ for me after import tax

[mossy venture]

About 3

[fossil cedar]

Hmmmm I'm actually trying to see tho like might be worth it then snag a decent b550/x570 used/cheapish one new

Also are there any 5700x reviews yet?

[frank stirrup]

https://tenor.com/view/yes-but-no-grim-orchard-no-nope-nodding-gif-16941274

[fossil cedar]

No like how bad because very cheap 5700x rn

[frank stirrup]

It SHOULD be fine

[fossil cedar]

Good enough xD

I'm so tempted

I haven't seen any 5700x reviews tho

[frank stirrup]

if u keep pbo off

[fossil cedar]

I could turn pbo on after diff board

So tempting

[frank stirrup]

dew it

u finally wont be imc limited either

[fossil cedar]

Owo true

My board prolly a limit a bit too

[fossil cedar]

is gone :(

[mossy venture]

Won't you need a new cooler?

Since don't you have the 224xt atm?

[fossil cedar]

nope i ordered a d15s from ebay a couple weeks ago - it arrived bent and i got a refund for it but was able to bend it back... i would just need to buy an am4 mounting kit for it

[mossy venture]

Nice

[frank stirrup]

oh noot

[fossil cedar]

It was 1000% a pricing error they have 5600 non x up for the same price now dammit I didn't get cuz I didn't know how much the diff between 5700x and 5800x was :(

[frank stirrup]

F

das no good

btw @fossil cedar go do wordle

[fossil cedar]

Oh I do

Reeeeeeeeeeee haxor

[tardy knoll]

Seems ABS support is now refusing to return my calls now that I've said the PC is fixed and I just want a refund for the bad PSU like I was originally offered instead of a replacement because I wanted to upgrade....

So what happens if I have another issue with the PC they just won't return my calls?

[fossil cedar]

try talking to support via chat like dm @fresh garden or maybe try newegg chat support on their site

[tardy knoll]

I will try that if I don't get a call back soon. Originally they were returning my calls within the next day at the latest

Gonna stink if I can't get that refund seeing as how I went out and bought a way nicer PSU already... Only after confirming that was an option with them. As originally I asked if they could send me a nicer replacement and I'd pay the price difference. They said no but could do a refund

Also kinda curious why my LEDs came wired in a way to where the front 3 case fans were controlled by a button on the case. Then the CPU RGB was plugged into Mobo and totally separate. Couldn't sync them... Moved cpu RGB to the RGB controller where case fans were, then figured out how to turn the button off and allow me to control it all thru Asus Aura sync software.

My build looks sooooo much nicer now. The original PSU had red and yellow wires etc. The 24 pin was all sorts of diff colors. New PSU is all black and then with LeDs synced up it looks like a new build almost lol

[tardy knoll]

Not impressive to you experienced builders, but putting a new PSU in, and then fixing the RGB was quite the feat for me as a beginner. I'm so stoked with how it looks now

Curious, I want to get some RGB to do backlit monitors or whatever you'd call it. Do you just wire them to the RGB controller or how does that stuff work.
Id also like to get the keyboard and mouse RGB synced with PC

[steel fox]

Hey I want to put a 1050ti in my optiplex 790 but would I need to invest into a new PSU as well?

[desert gulch]

Possibly

[earnest olive]

oh god dell website is defaulting to italian bc i'm on vacation

it has a 240w psu

you'll be fine

no need to get a new one

@steel fox

[steel fox]

Thank you friend

If a monitor has rgb it's usually controlled through the USB connection
If you get a rgb strip to attach to the wall or back of the monitor you can control it from the rgb controller.

You can often use openrgb or signalrgb to get stuff from different brands to sync

[fleet heron]

Honestly RGB Is just overrated and overpriced

[desert gulch]

But it does add like 10% perf

[potent portal]

Only if you set it to red, everyone knows that's the fastest color

[fossil cedar]

obviously its white

[desert gulch]

but that takes the most power

[potent portal]

No white is for stability. It'll never crash if it's set to white.

[desert gulch]

red is the best

[potent portal]

Blue is for the cool kids
And old men that want to feel young

[little osprey]

set it to black

[tardy knoll]

Nah the monitor itself has nothing. So yea it's be an RGB strip I need

So I can just attach it to controller on PC perfect.

What should I use to monitor performance of my PC? Want to make sure stuffs working right. Curious at what point my GPU fans come on lol

[desert gulch]

For super simple, afterburner with rivatuner is nice

It has an overlay that's fairly easy to set up

If you want a bit more in depth, hwinfo64 is great

[tardy knoll]

Not familiar with simple or indepth lol

Probably first need to learn how to monitor performance

Do GPU fans not come on often unless you're actually gaming or?

[desert gulch]

Depends on gpu

Modern ones will usually only come on during high usage like games and stuff

[tardy knoll]

Gotcha.

What percentage usage would you say they'd come on

[desert gulch]

Idk tbh

Iirc it's on temps

[tardy knoll]

Gotcha.

[tardy knoll]

You think I could get the gamdias keeb and mouse that came with the prebuilt to sync with the PC RGB that way?

[little osprey]

No

I don’t think open rgb or signal rgb support gamdias yet

gamdias isn’t that large scale

sadly

[desert void]

can someone rate this rq

[mossy venture]

Ima be painfully blunt

Pretty terrible

What's the budget for the build?

@desert void

[desert void]

1800cad

[mossy venture]

Are you gaming?

[desert void]

valorant, genshin, sea of thieves and thats abt it

[mossy venture]

[mossy venture]

Here you go https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/p38z78

Could prolly save a bit with a cheaper case

Bit 4000d airflow got good airflow

Could also get that p360a from newegg

Also a good case

[desert void]

legend fr

[mossy venture]

Very

[desert void]

i think this is actually what im gonna go for

was rly tryna push the 1600 mark

[strong raft]
