[rough fiber]

I speedran the story in 20 hours

[feral frost]

The only COD is worth spending that money is bo3 for the zombie maps

In ps4 not

[languid shard]

Bo1 was peak zombies

[feral frost]

But i really wanna do My own playthrough with my challenge

[short coyote]

Maybe B02, but B01 was pretty good

Along with World At War Zombies

[feral frost]

Very hardcore
No implants
Fists only against smasher

[rough fiber]

I dont really care for cod anymore, the newest cod i own is mw19 which i only bought to play with certain people

[short coyote]

Also quick question guys, is it a sin for me to love the cod zombies map, Transit?

[bitter hearth]

yeah bo3 zombies was awesome fr

[languid shard]

Bo2 turned zombies into a cartoon

[feral frost]

Bo3 was the fanservice of saga

[short coyote]

And it being my favorite map

[bitter hearth]

world at war had pretty good zombies too

[short coyote]

Yeah Der Riese was the best, along with Verruckt

[bitter hearth]

i liked how many maps of zombies there were in bo3 i mean community made

[feral frost]

I love when zombie maps have aesthetics

I love Shi no numa ambience

[languid shard]

Bo2 turned zombies into a cartoon, Bo3 is when it became a playable meme

[feral frost]

Remember when they didnt make up the zombie lore?¿

Like they were trying to tell a lore
But at the end

They just took comunity theories and make them canon

[bitter hearth]

i dont remember zombie lore, i just kil zomber

[languid shard]

Der Riese in WaW introduced a good bit of lore. I'm aging myself because I remember when WaW round 40 was being god-like at the game

[feral frost]

To bo2 was ok, but it got worse since bo3

Alien stuff, realitys

[bitter hearth]

i was decent tho, i payed for some doors not be a complete money hog

[rotund horizon]

It's over...

[bitter hearth]

its joever

[rotund horizon]

It's finally...over

[neon vale]

we should break sylky out of prison

[bitter hearth]

we should, been a long time since i saw him

[rotund horizon]

I've completed Spec Ops

[neon vale]

its been so long since ive actually talked with the guy

[feral frost]

Based and strelokpilled

Now platinum it

[rotund horizon]

Idk how to feel rn

[feral frost]

[rotund horizon]

I've chosen to shoot John & to not shoot the rescuers

[feral frost]

don't spoil me

[bitter hearth]

i got c4 to free him we just need a drive away car

i thought he was still around posting

[neon vale]

we just exchange fumo pictures now

[bitter hearth]

yeah its been a while since he spoke

[bitter hearth]

hotline miami 2 ending was a trip

[rotund horizon]

mind If I join in on the Fumo black market ?

[neon vale]

[feral frost]

I remember a detail
When You see jacket being nuke
You can see the bible in his table could be Open or closed

[bitter hearth]

somehow i got S and A+ ranks only once

altho killing everyone as fast as i can not taking one minute long

[neon vale]

hop on omori

[feral frost]

I just got as always
Subway S at first

[bitter hearth]

i just heard a really loud discord ping but no one pinged me

[feral frost]

Omori sucks

[bitter hearth]

like my ears are ringing

[neon vale]

[languid shard]

Emission is officially schizophrenic

[feral frost]

Strelok gave me more depression and existencialist crysis than kinky emo rpg

[bitter hearth]

NOOOOO

[neon vale]

i dont really get how it has the "depression rpg" schtick attached to it

[bitter hearth]

today i became officialy awesome and officialy schizophernic

[feral frost]

Based, he is monolith member now

[neon vale]

the main character isnt really even depressed

[languid shard]

Did you actually become awesome or was that the schizophrenia too?

[bitter hearth]

my friend keeps talking about it soo much telling me its a game with a mix of feelings

[neon vale]

fitting considering its about grief

[bitter hearth]

nah i was awesome before i got schizophernia

[feral frost]

You know... Maybe people may not know who this character but
I always think popoka would fit an stalker emboriment
Like
Every faction would be chill with her

Pretty much 2 stuff unrelated

But they fit

[bitter hearth]

he told me to try it but i dont know because he also told me to try like 4 sex games because " the story is good bro " and 50 undertale mods so i dont really trust him

[neon vale]

they should add touhou characters to stalker

[bitter hearth]

nah i dont know the character

[neon vale]

with no explanation whatsoever

[bitter hearth]

they should add gordon freeman again, but alive this time

[neon vale]

perhaps

if the story doesn't click with you then you'd hate it

[feral frost]

Her, she Even knows how play guitar

[neon vale]

the gameplay is almost like filler

its pretty boring

[bitter hearth]

i have it on my list i just havent gotten to it yet

[feral frost]

Cirno bandit confirmed

[neon vale]

especially compared to the parts of the game that don't involve battles and rpg mechanics like the actual story

[feral frost]

Hold on

STRELOK FUMO CONFIRMED????

[rotund horizon]

Stalker 3 should be like that one 3d touhou game

yknow

[bitter hearth]

i have sekiro and elden ring batman arkaham city some 7 other games then it

[rotund horizon]

where you dodge danmakus but in 3d

[neon vale]

stalker3 should be a boomer shooter where a dutyer just shoots mutants and bandits for 20 hours

[bitter hearth]

half life 3😔

[rotund horizon]

is the definition of false hope

[bitter hearth]

i trust gaben, and if he breaks my trust im visiting valve

[runic vector]

I would buy a cute chibi strelok plush
Only to soak it in milk

[bitter hearth]

[rotund horizon]

[bitter hearth]

wow time is passing quick

[feral frost]

Need a strelok fumo

[languid shard]

We need a content creator to make a yootooz but it's just strelok

[neon vale]

contemplating drawing this or making it in gmod

[bitter hearth]

making it in gmod sounds more fun

im gonna play factorio for 9 hours because i have nothing good to do

[feral frost]

Remember
People with weird real haircuts tend to be badass

See strelok or antom

[runic vector]

i never tried it too, might buy it next time

[runic vector]

True actually
strelok is accurate slavic man

[short coyote]

[feral frost]

That makes strelok cooler

No stereotipycal physicalcultyrist or extreme handsome
Just an normal guy

[thorn cove]

I have great news for you... Agent 47 from Hitman exist.

[feral frost]

Besides him too

[thorn cove]

[short coyote]

What was it called, I forgot

[bitter hearth]

[runic vector]

I love just a guy characters
Probably why I also make mine them

[short coyote]

Oh yeah! I know what it was called

[lament zealot]

is it true that bald people secrete some kind of slime on their big bald heads

[short coyote]

Wasn't it called the uh, non family friendly train?

[bitter hearth]

who told you that....

[runic vector]

Yes, but its a secret. They cant let others find out

[short coyote]

I played cod zombies with my dad, and he slipped it out. We were all laughing after he explained the context

[runic vector]

Anyways chat, I come bearing gifts of revolutionary science

[bitter hearth]

Is that Hawaiian punch i see, I want some!

[short coyote]

Yeah, it made for a quite memorable moment

[short coyote]

[quiet obsidian]

ok guys this is kinda off topic but also not

is this build good for running stalker 2?

https://plasico.bg/kompyutyr-towerstrike-ver21-intel-i9-11900kf-16gb-512gb-ssd-rtx-3060-12gb-gddr6-12835635.html

[woeful trellis]

dont even have to click it.. yea it will run it fine

[quiet obsidian]

my biggest concern is the 3060

[valid jay]

why not build yourself?

[quiet obsidian]

i suck at that

[woeful trellis]

im on a 12gb GPU currently and its been holding up just fine idk

[quiet obsidian]

im not sure of compatibility and all that crap

[valid jay]

just buy the things and pay someone to build the thing

[quiet obsidian]

there is 1 configurator

[valid jay]

lemme check the price for this

[wild mulch]

Omg thats Cloacky

[quiet obsidian]

im feeling the same not racist its just off putting

[rough fiber]

Yeah lol necromorphs spent the longest time just being frozen by the cold and if earthgov actually enforced the no-fly zone wouldve stayed a non-issue for so much longer

[quiet obsidian]

i dont know if ryzen is gonna be good

like AMD's and ryzens n all taht

[quiet obsidian]

look mian i was expecting beard

[woeful trellis]

they showed beard

[quiet obsidian]

wher

[woeful trellis]

before they showed owl pretty sure

[quiet obsidian]

that does NOT look like beard all that much

[woeful trellis]

.....

[raw orchid]

People change

S2 happens like decade after CoP

[quiet obsidian]

wonder what beard products he uses to keep his beard in shape

[woeful trellis]

i think his secret is to lay off the fried chicken

[quiet obsidian]

his gaming settup is crazy

[ripe merlin]

It's not a bug

[quiet obsidian]

also NozAr what u thinkin about the pc n stuff

[valid jay]

okay this is overpriced as FUCK, and i mean that
for the same price as the 3060 you can buy rx7600 or 4060(a bit worse than 7600), i feel like CPU is a bit overpriced and over-the-top, though i'm not sure about current intel cpus, and even if you just buy the components yourself it'll be like two times cheaper

[woeful trellis]

rx7600 is nicely priced but its a nightmare.. jsut had to return 2 of them in separate builds

[valid jay]

what was wrong?

[quiet obsidian]

ok give me a few parts to work with and ill make a configuration to like build the pc

[woeful trellis]

artifacting and not drawing enough power seemingly.. both on 1200W PSUs and different brand mobos

[quiet obsidian]

for now me and my friend made something like thishttps://ardes.bg/configurator?cpu=293577&cpu-cooler=347782&mb=408878&ram=267957&gpu=339224&hdd=347679&paste=195984&assembly=87069&selected_case=393063

loads for me

[valid jay]

still doesn't, send screenshots i guess

[simple sage]

schizophrenical has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[rough fiber]

Kind of weird to put dlss3 as part of the name of the gpu

[valid jay]

ye this is better, personally i'd choose a worse cpu but better gpu, every game relays on gpu power nowadays, and i'm not sure if you should overpay for DDR5 RAM, DDR4 seems to do just fine (for now)

[quiet obsidian]

i need dat ram powa

[hollow crown]

Im pretty sure most games will rail your CPU nowadays lol

[quiet obsidian]

also yes the case fits a 4060

[hollow crown]

The mainstream ones

[rough fiber]

Dont know if you already confirmed this, but some 3rd party coolers do come with free thermal paste in the box, so you may not need to buy extra

[valid jay]

idk, mid segment like 5600 seem to do juuuust fine

[hollow crown]

You can fit any card in any case if u have basic common sense and technical sense

[valid jay]

even 3600

[hollow crown]

Not sure why hes going w Ryzen cpus doe

Unless hes doing multitasking or editing etc

[quiet obsidian]

uhh the box had like the cm all measured out in width and height so it pretty much fits

plus its supa cool

[valid jay]

also for the love of god buy a nice expensive PSU that has enough power for your build

[quiet obsidian]

how much wats

[valid jay]

https://www.newegg.ca/tools/power-supply-calculator

[rough fiber]

Go calculate how much ypur system needs and generally get a psu that can do like 100w more

[valid jay]

yeah, and don't buy cheap shіt, you don't want to fry your motherboard

[rough fiber]

Bonus if it has good protection rating like gold 80

[quiet obsidian]

whats the difference between the ssd and a hard drive im sorry i just really dont know

[rough fiber]

I believe there is actually a psu model tierlist out there, best to look for the correct voltage from the better models

Sometimes even reputable brands make some pretty bad models

Youll also want to look out for modular/semi-modular cables, non modular cables will be hell if youre using a matx case

[quiet obsidian]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[valid jay]

all you need to know
ssd - fast, for the system and games
hdd - slow, 2x cheaper, for files and stuff

[rough fiber]

Hdds are large, need to be screwed into place somewhere in your case and need both power cables and sata cables

They are also slow, but are very good storage for price if you just wanna store a lot of things like images and videos, but probably not any major work projects or games

[quiet obsidian]

dont need em im fine

[valid jay]

you can also look for brands like FSP, they tend to be cheaper

[valid jay]

buy like 650-700 if you plan to upgrade in the future

[rough fiber]

SSDs come in 2 forms, sata which also requires power/sata cabling and screwing, but generally faster and more expensive than HDD. This is kind of a middle ground

[quiet obsidian]

alsoooooooooooooooooooo do i get liquid cooling or normal

[valid jay]

doesn't matter, normal is fine, just make sure it's sufficient enough

and again, i'd think about re-arranging some things and buying a better gpu

[rough fiber]

There is also nvme ssds which are small and just can be slotted into the motherboard no cabling/screwingrequired, and are the fastest options out there but also the most expensive

[quiet obsidian]

4060 is veri good

[valid jay]

not as good as 7600 and 7700

[mellow token]

????

[rough fiber]

Liquid dont really have that much performance increase over air for the price, its something only chosen by people who value aesthetics or have big budgets

[coarse rapids]

are you maxine

[quiet obsidian]

its like underground like uhh

like tiny bridges super tiny

[quiet obsidian]

ok i think this will be my finnal build

[rough fiber]

You can save some money by getting slower ram

The 7600x can only utilize up to 5200mhz according to the website specs

[valid jay]

i don't like the 7600x/4060 pair tbh

[rotund horizon]

Marked One,what the hell ?

[rough fiber]

Id also suggest getting just a air cooler and using the money to up your gpu a notch

[ripe merlin]

im coming for your setup

[rough fiber]

This tbh, the gpu feels like a bottleneck here

[twin cairn]

Id like to go for an AMD card for more vram 4070ti is nice however 12 gigs of vram isn't ideal alot of the time

[rough fiber]

If youre alright with waiting, i think you could actually snipe 7800xts for a lot lower than msrp, and those have 16gb of vram

[quiet obsidian]

the only thing im mostly gonna do with this is play S2

i want game good graphics no stutters good fps

[rough fiber]

The core pc building experience is planning a build, waiting half a year for a good sale, and then right as the sale comes a new generation appears that dunks on the current gen

[quiet obsidian]

do i just go for intel

[valid jay]

again, i think you should cut on ram and cpu and buy a better GPU

[quiet obsidian]

how good does it get from a 4060

[rough fiber]

Uh probably not, intel cpus prolly gonna make you need a better psu too

[valid jay]

7700xt is like 30% better with more VRAM

which is a lot

[rough fiber]

For real, i do believe if you go for am4 motherboard with 5xxx series (which i think also comes with free cooler that is generally sufficient), you can also choose cheaper ddr4 ram that can free a lot of money for gpu

[valid jay]

^

[rough fiber]

But you really have to look at what you do with your pc

Do you use apps that use multicore or single core a lot

[valid jay]

does am4 support 5xxx though?

[rough fiber]

For me i got the 7600x precisely because my main games i play are super focused on single core

5xxx is am4 gen

[valid jay]

right

[rough fiber]

Only 7xxx is am5 right now

[quiet obsidian]

imma just use nvidia and roll with it if its less then like 2800 of my currency is good

since 3k for a pc seems too overkill

[valid jay]

rarhguahg you're gonna lose performaaanceee

[ripe merlin]

same here, if it wasnt for s2 i wouldnt be buying a new setup

[rough fiber]

I know this looks like a ton of information to process

[ripe merlin]

2k on pc is already overkill

[quiet obsidian]

also another thing is wifi and a monitor

my router is VERY old and poopy but it sits right next to me basically in my room

[valid jay]

all i need for S2 is a better gpu, but i really don't know where the hell to get 30k rubles for 7600

[rough fiber]

But this is just what its like getting into custom builds, you most definitely want to research for at least a month or 2 before your first build

Understand compatibility and limits

[ripe merlin]

dont ISP's give free new ones

[quiet obsidian]

who is ISP

[valid jay]

those are not dollars, they're bulgarian

[ripe merlin]

go up north to find artifacts

[quiet obsidian]

1 dollar is like 2 of my currency

[ripe merlin]

1500 euros for a pc can get you really good stuff

[rough fiber]

If its next to you have you tried ethernet cables?

[quiet obsidian]

i tried connecting the ethernet cable from my router to my laptop and i have a thing to insert it into but it just never works

[rough fiber]

Weird

[quiet obsidian]

do keep in mind is old stuff

[valid jay]

right, i'd suggest a 2K monitor, but AGAIN, to run games in 2k you'll need a better gpu

[quiet obsidian]

how much better

[rough fiber]

A lot of reasons that can happen and honestly is a whole can of worms from pc building so i cant help there

[quiet obsidian]

what better RX or NVIDIA

[valid jay]

whatever's the cheapest

[quiet obsidian]

what difference in performance

[rough fiber]

Neither is straight up better tbh

Nvidias best gpus are better than amds best gpus, but in terms of lowend/midend gpus they trade blows a lot

[quiet obsidian]

im not buying a 4090 or a 4080 it costs as much as my whole build x2

[rough fiber]

I suggest you find benchmarks for yourself but look to tomshardware gpu/cpu hierarchy for the general ranking of performances

[quiet obsidian]

tttttttttthing is i dont want to try to build the pc myself since i dont know anything

[valid jay]

7700 is 30% better than 4060 and costs 300lv more

[rough fiber]

From there you compare prices and see whats the best you can afford

[valid jay]

that's too much information for the man methinks

[rough fiber]

Sorry man, but at the end of the day all we can do is advice you through text, you need to make a lot of research and decisions yourself

[valid jay]

he got a solid build, rearranging a few things is all that needs to be done

[quiet obsidian]

ok but another thing is ma parents need buy me a stalker 2

Stalker 2 will be DRM free btw

[rough fiber]

Honestly? I think the tomshardware hierachy is makes comparing cpus and gpus so much easier than before

[valid jay]

Not suggesting anything, of course

[quiet obsidian]

def not a big preorder just basic version might do it we arent the richest people in the world but my dad did win 7k levs from the lottery

which i dont know where they went

plus 2k levs on top from my personal money

[rough fiber]

real quick, is S2 the only/main reason you want a new pc

[quiet obsidian]

not really i really just need a big upgrade from this janky laptop

but also S2 on the side i really gotta play it

[rough fiber]

Ok, whats your budget again? In usd for simplicity sake

[valid jay]

okay, so, final words:
buy a cheaper cooling system
buy Ryzen 5 5600X instead
buy DDR4 RAM and an AM4 Motherboard instead
buy 7700 instead of 4060 with the money you save

pretty much it

[rough fiber]

Give me a few hours or a day and ill craft up a build for you, just let me know your budget

[quiet obsidian]

money isnt a huge problem unless its literally buying top tier stuff

[quiet obsidian]

around 3k levs but keep in mind it doesnt mean use it all

[rough fiber]

Alright

[quiet obsidian]

like 2k levs -2.9k levs does it

[rough fiber]

One more thing, gaming mainly or will you be using for work like 3d rendering/adobe-type work stuff

[gray jetty]

ryzen gpus 💀

truly it is dark times

[quiet obsidian]

i messed it up

mb

[still ore]

You don't want to game on those sweet sweet integrated graphics?

[hollow crown]

Some newest AMD cpus have been known to catch on fire, happened to my friend aswell

Not quite sure exact model can find tho

Since she had to rebuild anyway

[bitter spruce]

poor cooling and no thermal grease

i really don't think the cpu was at fault

[gray jetty]

that issue was already fixed

it was a bios bug

[hollow crown]

Ur telling that to someone who spent building PCs for a decade

[gray jetty]

again

it was a bios bug

[hollow crown]

Yes I know

[gray jetty]

that would cause the thermal probe to stop working

[hollow crown]

I mean AMD pretty much comes backdoored out of the box ifykyk

Not that Intel any better

[gray jetty]

intel just worse just flat out at this point pretty much

vcache fucks hard brother

[still ore]

How long ago was it fixed?

[twin cairn]

Even the i9 13900s?

[gray jetty]

years

[neon vale]

and you're saying that to someone who's job is to build and troubleshoot pcs

[gray jetty]

oh easily bro lmao

7800x3d pounds 13900ks

[hollow crown]

So basically its same shit as her

[still ore]

Oh good. I just upgraded a few weeks ago.

[gray jetty]

was mainly only an issue with 7800x3d cpus

[twin cairn]

Idk I've always stuck with Intel tbh

[gray jetty]

and certain gigabyte and asus boards

i did till they stopped being the fastest option

the days of x58 are long behind us brotherrrrrrrrr

[hollow crown]

Intel 4004 stays winning

[gray jetty]

x58 intels most legendary platform ever

it birthed this into the world

[still ore]

Ah thanks! I don't regret my decision to go with a with a 7950x3d. Could've probably saved a bit of money but hey I'm not as hardware savvy.

[hollow crown]

who here has btc in they wallet and an amd cpu lmk

[gray jetty]

ive only used crypto to buy pc hardware from russia

[woeful trellis]

[gray jetty]

i have 7950x3d as well

[hollow crown]

Crypto is dead, only good for suspicious activities tbh

[gray jetty]

i needed a gigabyte 8S651M-RZ

[twin cairn]

Do yall have bitcoin atms aswell around you?

[woeful trellis]

i've only seen them in vape shops (i don't frequent them)

[hollow crown]

I mean if u deal w crypto u already shady

[twin cairn]

Fair haha I never got into the crypto fad

[gray jetty]

it has no real world utility

which is the problem with it

it does not actually do anything regular money can not do

that benifits anyone other than criminals

[twin cairn]

I agree 100%

[gray jetty]

nfts are the same but worse

[neon vale]

those exist?

[gray jetty]

with no regulation its so easy to get scammed

and if you get robbed well

cus no one can help you

[twin cairn]

Yeah ive seen about 3 in my city

[hollow crown]

nfts is money launder bubble

[gray jetty]

there is no bank you can call and try and get them to charge back

[twin cairn]

Oh yikes

[hollow crown]

[gray jetty]

got even worse since last i heard then

cus its literally the most obvious scam ever what does a 350k png do?

fucken nohing

so its worthless

Was kinda funny

[hollow crown]

i miss tmobile

I'm beyond thankful stalker makers never thought about adding nfts to the game like some other devs have done

i mean

they didn;t do it cus well

this place became a fucken war zone for a good 8 hours

[twin cairn]

@quiet obsidian alright check this build, should be ~2k lev
@valid jay your opinion on this craft?

[hollow crown]

doesnt have intel 4004, mid

[gray jetty]

pretty alright but id get a x3d cpu

[twin cairn]

The tarkov outrage was wild I saw a bit of it

[rough fiber]

I would too, but then itll need a 3rd party cooler and i want to hit the guys minimum budget so he has space to make upgrades himself

[gray jetty]

fair enough

[gray jetty]

one other thing is change over to m.2 ssd

[hollow crown]

jitcoin investor

[rough fiber]

I could trade downing the gpu a notch to allow for the x3d but that dosent seem very good

[rough fiber]

Once again, budget issues, for m.2 2tb will cost quite a bit

[short coyote]

Yeah, it's like the CDOs from 2008 all over again

If yall don't know what I mean, cdos is collaterialized debt obligation

[gray jetty]

not a gen 3 one

[rough fiber]

But yeah my build is just the bare minimum, to give the most wiggleroom for personal decisions from the guy

[hollow crown]

[twin cairn]

Is that combining all debt into one to pay it off faster ?

[short coyote]

Nah nah nah, ok so let me simplify

[twin cairn]

Sounds good sorry just don't think I've heard cdo before

[rough fiber]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tF8Jrv oh you know what yeah theres a teamgroup 2tb pcie3 for the exact same price

[short coyote]

Back in 2000, investors wanted to make bread, so they decided real estate was a new front for them

So, they essentially bundled a bunch of mortgages together to make em cdos, essentialy 3 boxes. There were the safe boxes, kinda safe, then the risky boxes

However, the investors wanted even more bread, so they got sub par loans mixed in. Basically people who are not as likely to pay mortgages and default on the loan

Banks, investors, and firms were gambling essentially

But as more and more defaulted, prices went down, CDOs essentially were dependent on prices going up, as it historically had been

[gray jetty]

what i tell you 🤨

[rough fiber]

[short coyote]

Thus the CDOs became a liability and a ticking time bomb

[gray jetty]

blah blah blah cod lore idfc its cod

[short coyote]

And that's kinda how 2008 began, but there's more nuance to it

except tuscon and phoenix

[gray jetty]

mate you clearly don't understand why thats so awesome

E85 has 130 octane

FOR LESS THAN REGULARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[urban coral]

Nothing can beat California

[neon vale]

wisconsin is awesome, its just boring

[bitter spruce]

urggghhh dont come here....

you are not welcome.....r

[short coyote]

OH SHIT I SEE IT NOW, why the hell is it that cheap!

[neon vale]

tampico has seen the roads of wisconsin

[bitter spruce]

you have seen the roads of Tucson

[short coyote]

But what did I do!

[gray jetty]

because down south farms get subsides to turn extra corn into ethanol

so e85 exists down there

brazil has e95

and inidia has e99

[short coyote]

So it's essentially a surplus of sorts, from my understanding, got you

[gray jetty]

yes

it kinda sucks for average users

cus you get worse fuel economy

but

you get WAY more power

[neon vale]

everything is like this

[short coyote]

I usually focus on the regular gas, cause that's what our car operates, that's why ignored the ethonal

[whole sable]

If you can survive the heat

[bitter spruce]

rhghhh idk.... i donr like yur
....

[gray jetty]

so normal gas typically has like 10 percent ethnaol

which is to prevent knocking

[short coyote]

Eh, understandable opinion

[gray jetty]

but the more ethanol you have

the higher the compression

[short coyote]

True, like if I recall correctly, Arizona is one of the hottest states in America

[neon vale]

triple digits most of the year iirc

[gray jetty]

the only reason e100 does not exist is because pure ethanol when it burns is not visible so your car could be engulfed in flames and you wouldn't even be able to tell

cus under day light conditions its completely invisible

[short coyote]

So essentially, it's one hell of a fire hazard

[gray jetty]

well no but its more so if it got out of the car and caught fire

it would be an issue

its why in inidia its e99

the last 1 percent is just an additive to make the flame visible

[short coyote]

Just 1% away

[gray jetty]

but its why if you ever get into cars and see people claiming insane numbers and there from brazil

thats why

lmao

[short coyote]

WOAH!!!

[gray jetty]

people do it with my car a lot

convert it to run on high ethanol fuel

[whole sable]

Can you run watermeth with e85?

[gray jetty]

yah

[short coyote]

To save on cash, huh

[gray jetty]

but its kinda pointless

reaching a compression level high enough you would need water meth on top of e85 is pretty damn hard

[gray jetty]

no for massive horse power

[whole sable]

Thinking of the horse power 🤤

And a turbo

[gray jetty]

run fucken 17 to 1

air fuel ratio

lmfao

perhaps its how some guy built a 800 hp miata engine

🤔

[whole sable]

But turbo kits and superchargers are kinda expensive 🫰 💸

[gray jetty]

yah they are

i wanna go efr though

one of the smaller efr turbos can spool fucken insanely fast

[bitter spruce]

@gray jetty

[gray jetty]

and do 444 hp

hi

[bitter spruce]

verifone

[gray jetty]

what about em

[neon vale]

@gray jetty

[bitter spruce]

or inside

[gray jetty]

ill check friday when i get veronica back

[bitter spruce]

@neon vale

[neon vale]

[bitter spruce]

jack what gas stations do you bave over there

[gray jetty]

shell

mobile

exon

[bitter spruce]

i work with all of those...

awesome.....

[gray jetty]

we got mom and pop ones which i like more

cus the premium is always way cheaper

[bitter spruce]

yeah the unbranded ones

[gray jetty]

mobile station got it for 4.6 a galloon but the mom and pop got it for 3.9

[bitter spruce]

yeah because they can actually decide their own fuel prices

[gray jetty]

mazda my beloved

[bitter spruce]

do you have sunoco over there

[gray jetty]

yah but i never go to em

[bitter spruce]

i would be helping them..

[gray jetty]
