we must stay sharp, and have our wits about us

[frozen trench]

Exactly!

[earnest barn]

😐 Zephyrus is generally their best spec models granted the Strix Scar has a bigger power supply so it technically outperforms it based on that

[frozen trench]

end of the day, as much as its nice to have a nice keyboard and chassis

nothing matters if the specs arent there

[earnest barn]

I'm buying another Asus sir this isn't changing and will probably be another zephyrus

[amber basalt]

[brittle elbow]

where can i farm this?

[amber basalt]

that is from the brocade treasure (permanent treasure) you can get that from things such as splendor or peerless treasure choice etc

[safe forge]

Is there any way to change the "city"?

[brittle elbow]

how much gold it will take to get it?

100 bux for 12k gold would it be possible to get it?

[amber basalt]

its possible but permanent treasures are notorious for not giving what you want for example i want the tessa outfit from that box and i'm 515 pulls in and still dont have it

i also don't recommend spending on permanent treasures as tbh they are pretty easy to aquire

So me and my boy have been playing duos on ranked we are both on solar and it feels like we've been playing against bots the whole time will it change???

[tropic robin]

when you get to higher rank there will be less bots

but there's still bots even on highest ranked matches

specially duo since the mode is kinda dead

[humble burrow]

@tropic robin how about trios?

[tropic robin]

trios is the most popular mode so there'll be less bots yes

[stable wave]

when will the new events start?

[fervent ferry]

which event bro

[spark bison]

What events do you mean, precisely?

[stable wave]

the sanrio events for example, but different

[fervent ferry]

huh

[spark bison]

New in-game events are introduced almost every patch

[stable wave]

oohh i see

[spark bison]

the next one should be in a few days, or a week after that

[earnest barn]

in warframe we have events every weekend leading up to the new update 😁

This has only happened this one time for this kind of thing though

[spark bison]

in space game we have a patch each month for this year

[earnest barn]

[spark bison]

in the past it used to be 1-3 big patches per year

[earnest barn]

We just have former community manager as the head lead creative director now and she looks out for community still 🥺

[spark bison]

[earnest barn]

Someone told me that I cannot get a 5090 laptop for the sole purposes of playing warframe I told them respectfully I disagree 😭

[spark bison]

@versed pond

update your drivers

a bunch of fixes for 50 series

[earnest barn]

Me in a few months with my 5090 😭

But it's a lapt.. shh 🤫

[versed pond]

Okayyy

[versed pond]

[spare saffron]

[earnest barn]

It's so pretty though
https://rog.asus.com/us/laptops/rog-zephyrus/rog-zephyrus-g16-2025-gu605/

Don't look at the cpu

[spark bison]

can try space game occasionally

[earnest barn]

Well yes it'll run it probably unless the Intel chip dies while playing 😭

I'm hoping by the time I buy mine they have a Ryzen version outside of the 5070

[spark bison]

i'd hope before that

[earnest barn]

Otherwise I have to buy a desktop and the laptop no way around it

Why 2 modern laptops and a desktop? Why not

[keen vessel]

Yeah it’s pretty tbh

And it’s not expensive

[versed pond]

Ultra 9?

[keen vessel]

Considering it has an oled panel

And 5090

Unless

With 5090
It’s more
Expensive

[earnest barn]

The 5090 is 5k 😭

[keen vessel]

Ok yeah it’s not worth lmao

[spark bison]

it's not going to be 2900

[versed pond]

https://tenor.com/view/tears-gif-5189857

[earnest barn]

Ummm I don't care about this 😔

I prefer laptop and want it so I'll buy it

[keen vessel]

The issue with laptops is you are spending a lot for performance that isn’t even desktop level and it’s going to go old in a year or two where even mid range laptops will beat you

[spark bison]

not with the way nvidia is going

[keen vessel]

If you travel a lot tbh just get a mid range laptop, so when it gets old you don’t regret buying it

[earnest barn]

This isn't novel information but thank you. Laptop people legit don't care about this point and if I wanted just a desktop I'd get one

[spark bison]

When you get the desktop you'd probably want a oled monitor

otherwise you'll complain why your laptop looks so much better

[spare saffron]

3050 laptop is like a 580 rx lmao

1650

on desktop

[earnest barn]

I have last year's of the one I showed already? Was 2k I love it

[keen vessel]

Gtx 1060/1070 laptops were peak

[spare saffron]

speaking from experince

[spare saffron]

well they were full desktop gpus

[keen vessel]

Yeah

[spare saffron]

NO GUYS WE NEED THIN AF LAPTOPS THAT APPEAL VISUALLY

[earnest barn]

Like I do when I play on TV and people freak out why you do this to your performance etc etc umm I mostly play single player games where 60fps is fine on a TV

[keen vessel]

It’s sad that nvidea’s way of improving generational performance was just increase power..

[earnest barn]

Yes

[spare saffron]

true they look good

but give us a chunky boy

version

[spark bison]

should buy a 6090 for the memes in three years

[earnest barn]

I will just to annoy people

A laptop one

[keen vessel]

I used to be a laptop person too

Until I changed

[spare saffron]

only 90 series gpu one should buy

[keen vessel]

Laptops are generally more convenient even with the bios etc

[spare saffron]

imagine nvidia changes the naming

because of that

we will have 6089

[keen vessel]

But performance difference is massive

It’s not even close it’s insanely big

And it will improve your experience drastically

So unless you really travel a lot a desktop is better

[waxen tulip]

ngl imo laptop bioses are useless pieces of shit cuz even manufacturers like Lenovo lock them down a lot

[keen vessel]

Well yeah but it’s more convenient u can’t mess up sht

[waxen tulip]

If I'm deep enough into changing things that I enter the BIOS, I want all options available

[keen vessel]

Like my pc for example I still don’t know why when I put it in sleep it never wakes up

I just disabled sleep completely

Never had that issue with my laptops

[waxen tulip]

Prob has more to do with OS settings and which devices can actually wake up the PC

[keen vessel]

I changed those

Didn’t help

[waxen tulip]

In my experience the reverse problem is more common
I.e. PC refusing to stay in sleep

[keen vessel]

I literally followed all of ChatGPT’s checklist

[spark bison]

@waxen tulip

[earnest barn]

Look if I said I'm just buying all Asus desktop parts too you guys would be shitting yourselves the same because well why would anyone do that? Why do my purchasing choices bother you is the real question?

[waxen tulip]

cuz random network adapter wakes it up

@spark bison

[spark bison]

hit 5.4 all core effective clocks

[waxen tulip]

Which load

[spark bison]

lil' test for occt ram+cpu

[keen vessel]

Buying all Asus desktop parts is not bad xD they look good and u can always upgrade ur Asus parts with newer Asus parts later

[waxen tulip]

I see
Tried prime95? I think prime95 always railed the CPU the most

[spark bison]

have not

thermal throttling at that

[keen vessel]

My concern with laptops is because I was in the dark when I was a laptop user, I didn’t know my performance was being held back that much

[waxen tulip]

F
Tbf not too unexpected, AMD boost algorithm be aggressive

[spark bison]

Thermal throttles with Cinebench 24, but hits the peak for a bit

[keen vessel]

I think you just need one thin af laptop, 1 mid range gaming laptop that plays at playable fps and 1 gaming pc. And then you just upgrade ur pc parts and buy a new laptop once every big while

[earnest barn]

Bruh my laptop is thinner than a lighter there are no misconceptions that it can't keep up with a desktop

[waxen tulip]

ngl I mostly stopped looking at my PC's numbers, I just use it
only when shaders compile for some new game, it's funny to see my cooler report 91°C like instantly and have the CPU spike to 5.3-5.4ghz

[waxen tulip]

You had an AIO right?

[spark bison]

[spark bison]

nu

[waxen tulip]

NH-D15?

[spark bison]

a different noctua model

[waxen tulip]

U12S?

[spark bison]

NH-D12L

[waxen tulip]

Aah

I see

[keen vessel]

Also 27in+ monitor is a big difference

It’s insane

The amount of things u will start seeing that u couldn’t see

[spark bison]

Can try the scam space game that will be free to play for a week or two in a few days

[waxen tulip]

I'm using the Deepcool AK620 digital
Rly good performance for the cost (like 60 bucks with nice little 7-section display)

[earnest barn]

You understand I'm buying that 5k laptop before a desktop right? Ok good same page

[spark bison]

[waxen tulip]

Scam space game?

[spark bison]

[keen vessel]

In the end you are gonna make the decision I’m just saying a desktop is a very different experience in case you wanna try it. If you wanna remain an exclusively laptop person then so be it no one is stopping u

Personally if I had infinite money I’d buy a gaming laptop and a gaming pc and I’ll prob never use the gaming laptop unless I’m traveling

[earnest barn]

Riddle me this batman could I fit a desktop in a cute bag like this because if not then I'm going to have to pass for now

[waxen tulip]

There are some that fit in there

[earnest barn]

Yes I'm actually ordering that bag

[spare saffron]

I've never seen a laptop with a usable bios

[keen vessel]

Yeah some actually fit

[spare saffron]

the single good thing you can do is change boot order

[spare saffron]

you see the same things

just in a lower pixel count

[earnest barn]

In a 14" city backpack 😭 nah won't be as pleasing to look at

[keen vessel]

Yeah well but larger so it’s easier to notice

[spare saffron]

you can see more if you get a uw

or a super uw

[waxen tulip]

There's some setting I had to change to be able to boot anything non windows from a USB stick
So that is the 2nd useful option
And p much the last

[spare saffron]

https://tenor.com/view/big-monitor-big-brain-looking-searching-gif-15959035

who comes with the naming

[keen vessel]

U can have a 100 pixel circle so small it looks like a dot and a 100 pixel circle but pixels are spread and it looks large. You will notice the large circle much faster

[spare saffron]

Super Ultra wide

why is it super

ultra

and not super wide

[spare saffron]

but also the pixels much faster

[waxen tulip]

For a solid amount of comp games, pros don't recommend large monitors actually
Cuz of eye travel time/information load
League is one of those games

[spare saffron]

safe boot

[waxen tulip]

I think 27" for gaming is probably ideal

[waxen tulip]

Nop, wasn't safe boot

Was some other dumb shit

[spare saffron]

what

[waxen tulip]

I think it had to do with certificates

[spare saffron]

that's a weird laptop

[keen vessel]

Yeah

Unless u sit further

[spare saffron]

league ??

[keen vessel]

Which u don’t do on pc

[spare saffron]

league is the best game

for a super ultra wide

you see everything

[spare saffron]

it's recommended that you sit at arm s length

of the monitor

i kinda do that i think

i sit pretty far

[waxen tulip]

Nop
Look at pros/ask them
Being able to see a lot horizontally is not a huge advantage (cuz the game kinda plays at a 45° angle) and the additional information load/eye travel time is a detriment

It looks funny tho

[spare saffron]

pros can't use different monitors

in official tourneys

that's also a reason

[waxen tulip]

They also don't choose to outside of tourneys

Not even high challengers (non pros) do

[spare saffron]

because that would mess with them

i can't use a 16:9

makes me dizzy

[waxen tulip]

Well yes, that argument is why I alr added the second part

[spare saffron]

it's more like getting used to

but yeah

[spark bison]

also pros

[spare saffron]

league is a weird angle

imo trash game

but what ever

[waxen tulip]

Just wait until you see those pros who have their monitor at like a 10° angle from the tabletop

[spark bison]

what

[spare saffron]

what do i know

[spark bison]

like a tablet?

[spare saffron]

im just a little above average

https://tenor.com/view/apothecary-diaries-maomao-kusuriya-no-hitorigoto-the-apothecary-diaries-chewing-gif-9143832827897873310

[earnest barn]

Now what about a RoG Flow 😭 a gaming tablet opinion on that one

[waxen tulip]

sort of yeah

[spark bison]

[earnest barn]

No logical arguments jaan

[spare saffron]

oh that is crazy work

they're fully immersed

a cs player called YEKINDAR

[earnest barn]

Peak performance clearly 😉

[spare saffron]

bro is sitting at nose s length

[earnest barn]

Don't we all do this? Just me 14" laptop

[spare saffron]

he probably plays 4:3 stretched thinking it's an advantage

[earnest barn]

Is it not?

[spare saffron]

literally further limiting Fov

[keen vessel]

That guy will be you once u get a gaming pc

[earnest barn]

... Does the autistic person have to explain sarcasm that I barely get half the time

[earnest barn]

Also yes

[spare saffron]

[golden pelican]

[spare saffron]

4:3 is stil consistent standard

in big 25

[spark bison]

[earnest barn]

To be clear I just mainly play warframe yes either way I'm buying a 50 series for primarily warframe do I care? No. does it run perfectly fine on current setup? Obviously yes 🙂‍↕️ laptop is like 10 months old

[keen vessel]

give me ur laptop

[earnest barn]

I'm keeping it when I get the other stuff wdym?

[keen vessel]

how many laptops do u have

[spark bison]

two for each lap

[keen vessel]

damn

[spare saffron]

i have my last one

[keen vessel]

tbh i personally have 4

[spare saffron]

and one with I3- 4 th gen 4gb of ram and some random trash amd dedicated gpu

[keen vessel]

4 laptops and like uh 10 phones?

[earnest barn]

2 one is ancient and I just use for music and whatever occasionally mainly just the one though

[spare saffron]

yeah im sitting at arms length at my pc when i play stuff

but generally im laid back

soo

[earnest barn]

Zephyrus G14 has some of the best speakers in a laptop period idk why I don't use them more

[keen vessel]

damn

i didnt expect you to have less laptops than me

mine are all ancient by today's standards

2018-2019-2020 models

https://rog.asus.com/us/laptops/rog-zephyrus/rog-zephyrus-g14-2024/

I'm going to get the black one for the G16 5090 though

[spark bison]

Might get a 3D printer in the future

[earnest barn]

[keen vessel]

bro flexing on us

he gonna have fps advantage over us when we travel

ill be stuck with my gtx 1060 ancient laptop and bro on a 5090

[earnest barn]

Not really it's overpriced like everyone keeps saying should just get the 5070 etc etc

[keen vessel]

yeah well

those ppl arent wrong

5k is too much

[earnest barn]

Nah it's fine Nvidia bro said so

[fluid helm]

Yo is this a good minitor

[keen vessel]

Oh yeah im sure we can trust this Nvidia dude

[earnest barn]

[fluid helm]

Team green am i right

[spare saffron]

idk

give me the model

[spare saffron]

[earnest barn]

He said doesn't everyone have 10k pc and well I guess we halfway there

[keen vessel]

wtf is a 10k pc

how can ur pc cost 10k

[earnest barn]

Ask Nvidia bro

[keen vessel]

bro even if i buy the best case, the best monitor and the best components it wont reach 10k

[earnest barn]

The Dubai 5090 is the equivalent of $7000 alone

The gold one

[keen vessel]

tf

[keen vessel]

ok i forgot we have a $5000 CPU..

[waxen tulip]

But an industrial PBF-LB one please

[spark bison]

it is certainly a monitor

[waxen tulip]

[keen vessel]

jaan tell me why do we have a $5000 cpu

[spark bison]

plastic is good enough for me

[earnest barn]

We can't really see what it is besides obviously a monitor

[spark bison]

workstations and servers

[keen vessel]

its that good??

[spark bison]

threadrippers and epyc are for that

[fluid helm]

Ifk what brand it is but it is on fb marketplace hes still not seeing my message

[spark bison]

not for you

[earnest barn]

Sassy answers only I like this one

jaan funny sometimes

[spark bison]

i wasn't trying to be sassy

[keen vessel]

well i do need workstations for work i guess... I use CAD applications and REVIT (3d modeling)

[spark bison]

The target that epyc and threadripper cpus are isn't him

[keen vessel]

but im sure

i wouldnt need a threadripper

intel i9s are good enough

[earnest barn]

Bruh it's like when I ask people what's the relevance of what they're saying like some people will get what you mean but most are going to be like well damn alright then

[spark bison]

Autodesk Revit isn't even made to use this many cores

[keen vessel]

yeah that sht is unoptimized as sht

all of autodesk is unoptimized tbh

[spark bison]

[keen vessel]

I wonder what profession would need a threadripper..

aside from Software engineers ofc

[spark bison]

any that support this kind of output

[earnest barn]

My doctor asked if I tell people that a lot and they asked if I'm aware I'm perceived as a jerk for it I wasn't aware until Friday

[spark bison]

whenever there's a need for many cores or a lot of memory

[spark bison]

[keen vessel]

if civil engineering/architictural dont need it and they deal with MASSIVE projects i dont know what descipline does need that. Maybe its for simulation programs in R&D departments..

[earnest barn]

Yeah I'm supposed to relearn how to talk to people in a non autistic way that won't be misconstrued

Like I'm supposed to be direct about things but non aggressive or something idk

[keen vessel]

you talk to ppl just fine tbh

[waxen tulip]

Prob
Most tasks are hard or impossible to properly parallelize on the CPU, and if they can be parallelized on the CPU, they likely work better on the GPU

[keen vessel]

at least from my experience

[waxen tulip]

From an engineering standpoint parallelization is the literal point of GPUs

[mellow kite]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1266625076250415216/1348711357712830555/ezgif-40375a71b12025.gif

[keen vessel]

yeah i saw this youtube short where it says CPU does the unique work and GPU does the donkey work

[dark coral]

probably 3d artists and animators would benefit

i think the programs they use benefit from multithreaded rendering

[mellow kite]

I'm cooked

[earnest barn]

I have time to process what I'm thinking in text in person I say some crazy things because of a impulse issue that is sort of like my mind telling me I have to respond and answer immediately instead of doing the same and taking a second to process what I want to actually say

[dark coral]

and maybe cad and cae

probably some more i dont know of

[waxen tulip]

Like 99.99% of what the GPU does is matrix/vector multiplication
Those tasks are easily parallelized because usually programs run multiple matrix/vecotr multiplcations at the same time that are independent of each other

Like when a game consists of triangles, each triangle can be computed separately

AI is the same shit btw

[dark coral]

oh yea

machine learning too i imagine

[waxen tulip]

weighted nodes that boil down to matrix/vector multiplication

[keen vessel]

CAD is unoptimized piece of junk

i have absolutely no idea why e-transmitting takes ages on CAD

[earnest barn]

@dark coral did you see what I'm chasing after currently on warframe new nightwave exclusive mod for the 1999 ak

This

[keen vessel]

damn

thats a lot of matrix multiplications

[waxen tulip]

It is

[keen vessel]

tbh its kinda impressive whoever first discovered the PC is a literal genius

[spark bison]

have gpus for that

discovered?

[earnest barn]

They were lost technology obviously

[keen vessel]

how did he think that oh if i put transistors in a semi-conductive circuit i can make them turn on and off in unique sequences and use the result to give a unique output

and then actually make the output useful

[spark bison]

they had humans for that first

then a bunch of wires

then magic

[waxen tulip]

On a hardware level the GPU p much can't do anything else than matrix/vector multiplication and some sin/tan functions
That specialization is why they clown CPUs in that task but can't do it all like the CPU

[keen vessel]

computers are magic

for sure

i have no other explanation

[earnest barn]

Anything we don't understand is magic true

[waxen tulip]

Computers are weird cuz at their core they're not even that complex

But they just stack simple things until they become complex things

[spark bison]

we add stuff

[waxen tulip]

[keen vessel]

to me computers are dark magic

[keen vessel]

lmaooo

[waxen tulip]

lmao

ngl AI gives me a headache
In uni there's so much talk about possible use of AI and how it's forbidden
GenAI making me scared of being accused even I do my work myself

[keen vessel]

yeah academics are cooked

i feel sorry for anyone in academics

anything u do will be checked for AI and sometimes even ur own words will be treated as AI

[frozen trench]

I need to know the model

[spark bison]

Is this Dell AW3423DW 34?

[tepid drift]

damn i thought it was a Alienware

[spark bison]

looks close enough

[spark bison]

[earnest barn]

It is Dell AW is Alienware

Or maybe not? 🧐

They are the same besides the logo I think 🤔

[frozen trench]

I mean, I can make a 15k PC PC easily

Just the actual Pc not even counting peripherals

[dark coral]

what is that

[frozen trench]

Dell owns alienware

So same stuff

Hi Marko

[spark bison]

wat

[dark coral]

if that's alienware qd oled

it is

[frozen trench]

[dark coral]

i have it for 2.5y

but if u are buying a new monitor and u dont care about ultrawide shape

get 360hz 1440p qd oled from alienware

it's objectively better unless you really want 21:9 and cheaper

[tepid drift]

i mean alienware goes as there gaming brand right ?

[frozen trench]

And hello too Jaan and others in the chat

[frozen trench]

While yes, dell still sell gaming stuff under dell

Go figure

[tepid drift]

like ROG TUF PRIME

[bitter void]

rog ftw

[earnest barn]

Don't you dare 😭

[spark bison]

[frozen trench]

Rog tuff and prime are line-ups, not brands

[earnest barn]

Hello there!

Friendly reminder that we host Movie Night once/month and we are always looking for suggestions. Make sure you post yours in #1365446243584704512

Good day!

[frozen trench]

Alienware is a separate brand, but it belongs to dell because they purchased it

[earnest barn]

Alienware pretend to sell gaming stuff

[bitter void]

alienware were toptier before they sold out to the man

[frozen trench]

I mean Alienware has some decent stuff

Specially in the monitor field

It's just their prebuilts that are dogshit

[bitter void]

only company that did gaming pre-builds back in the day

[earnest barn]

Nah they put out new laptops that mid mid their monitors probably fine but actual pc and laptops are trash

[spark bison]

[earnest barn]

Oh so we agree

[frozen trench]

@spark bison @spark bison
Opinion, you wanna buy the best laptop, 5090 and all.
You go for 9955x3d or just take Intel core ultra

[spark bison]

[earnest barn]

He knows why you're asking

[spark bison]

ye

if best, then at least make it worth it

[frozen trench]

See

[frozen trench]

Doesn't change that I'm right

[earnest barn]

Nah nah nah he's going to be disappointed then tell me how to fix it anyway 😭

[vocal storm]

Hi guys. I`m new at the game, but.. OH MY. It is awesome. \

[earnest barn]

jaan knows I'm not buying that msi

[spark bison]

Glad you're having fun!

[frozen trench]

Welcome to the game and the server!

[bitter void]

i only started 2 weeeks ago and believe me it oonly gets better

[spark bison]

How much was the 4060 one, 2k?

[earnest barn]

Yes

[spark bison]

🥹

[frozen trench]

You fix it by not becoming a core ultra owner, core ultra owners are stinky

[vocal storm]

I started today at 1 am... XD

[vocal storm]

Thanks!

[earnest barn]

Remember I bought mine a year ago and mine has a Ryzen 9 not Intel

[spare saffron]

unika is so cool

[spark bison]

ya

[spare saffron]

can't wait to play her in the actual game

[frozen trench]

And now you wanna get a stinky CPU

[earnest barn]

5070 with a Ryzen for 2500 or 5090 with Intel for 5k

[frozen trench]

Neither

[earnest barn]

Shh

[frozen trench]

Wait for 5090 with Ryzen

[spark bison]

the two are very comparable, though

[earnest barn]

It won't happen they will rob me

[frozen trench]

Or... Buy msi

[bitter void]

rog and ryzen, you cant go wrong

[spark bison]

[versed pond]

Or just get pc

[spark bison]

that's step 2 apparently

[spark bison]

[earnest barn]

Shut your face Foggy lovingly

[versed pond]

https://tenor.com/view/speechless-shocked-actually-gif-12423730

[frozen trench]

May be, until you take a take a game like cod for example, where a friend with a 4090 but 7700x get half my fps lol

X3d is too much of a gamechanger

Anything else isn't viable

[bitter void]

i'm rockin an old zephyrus and she still holds up

[versed pond]

Actually when is Jana birthday

[spark bison]

i wasn't talking about the x3D

[spark bison]

uh

22 years ago give or take

[earnest barn]

We got a bunch of zephyrus owners in here

[versed pond]

Day and month

Time too if remember

[spark bison]

certainly

[frozen trench]

Oh this thing loses to last gen CPU lol

It'll bottleneck the shit out of that 5090

Even the mobile one

[earnest barn]

It's not personal it's just I've heard it already today 3 times twice in a conversation I wasn't even really involved in 😭

[tepid drift]

wdym back in the day everything was pre build

[frozen trench]

Anyway

Only weird people buy Intel in 2025

[bitter void]

around alienware early days it was super easy to build your own, i had 3 home-builds on the go 😤

[frozen trench]

It's like buying AMD in 2015

Nobody did that

Imagine you being crazy enough to get an FX 9590

[spark bison]

@frozen trenchlarge events are fun

[bitter void]

alienware were good for allowing you to replace components too before they got absorbed into being a mac-knockoff

[frozen trench]

They aways are

Want some help?

[spark bison]

i had a fx 8300

[spark bison]

am good

[frozen trench]

I had a 6300 xD

[spark bison]

[frozen trench]

Oki oki, lmk if u ever do

[earnest barn]

Speaking of weird people you said you were playing warframe today

[frozen trench]

I will

As soon as I get to my pc

[bitter void]

such a complex game warframe, hard to keep all controls in mind at once

[spark bison]

[versed pond]

I didn’t even know about it and said it too

The signs

Also i thought you were planning on building one with them fishtank cases

If i remember correctly

[versed pond]

Hello good

[rough sandal]

He's just gonna buy another asus laptop or wtv

[earnest barn]

Ehh not really

[earnest barn]

[bitter void]

Mouse and keyboard all the way

[bitter void]

i dont have one of those, tried it oon switch though and that doesnt help at all xD

[earnest barn]

Switch is the problem 😭

[versed pond]

I changed my controls so its playable

But the game feels weird

[earnest barn]

I use alien controller

[bitter void]

switch is great, just not for anything vaguely considered precision playing

[earnest barn]

I sort of spaced that you actually started because you said you would not

[versed pond]

Did i?

I mean i tried it once and thats it

Volt all the way

[earnest barn]

Find a frame you want the prime of and I'll get it for you

[versed pond]

Dunno what a prime is but ig I’ll do my research

[earnest barn]

Just flashier better versions of base frames

[bitter void]

can i haz pryme frame?

[versed pond]

she said it to me

[versed pond]

Well I’ll hold you to that

[bitter void]

[earnest barn]

This is the next one
https://youtu.be/QYXfonwY6mM?si=kkg7KWdd611isvFY

[earnest barn]

I showed jaan yesterday but my Volt looks like this

[bitter void]

psssst...ask for wukong prime

he's baller lookin'

[kindred violet]

Is there any player from SA ?

[bitter void]

Sry, EU player

[earnest barn]

He doesn't nuke anymore though

[leaden coral]

You can find SA players here #974124353899880498

[bitter void]

but he still looks baller af

i dont really underatnd the game i did 3 story missions and my pinky hurt so i'll have to try get back to it to know the ins n outs

no better time than the present i suppose

[kindred violet]

@leaden coral im having a doubt

[leaden coral]

Wdym

[kindred violet]

What does SA means here 😭

South asia

??

[leaden coral]

South america

[earnest barn]

obviously I think you should play warframe

[leaden coral]

#974124359335690340 this is south east asia

[kindred violet]

Thnx alot

[leaden coral]

And #974124357683142666 is for asia

Sure np

[bitter void]

not sure if you really mean that but i'm playing it now anyway 😎

[spark bison]

That's just a lot of water i'm afraid

[versed pond]

Oohh

[earnest barn]

I am literally on finishing nightwave

[versed pond]

Looks goood

[bitter void]

i dont know what that is 🧐 but i'm gonna find out 😄

[earnest barn]

Free battle pass

[bitter void]

oh cool! where do i view that in the game though?

[earnest barn]

Navigation screen/mission select and pause menu

If you aren't far enough it won't show pretty sure

[bitter void]

this is likely the issue

thanks for the push, this is gonna be fun

[earnest barn]

Remember power comes from modding not leveling but make sure you level everything you make

[bitter void]

will do 🙏

[mellow kite]

Cha cha cha cha

[earnest barn]

You get mastery rank from leveling everything to max. You need to rank up to access better weapons. Frames used to be mr locked as well but aren't anymore

[earnest barn]

Hi colossal

[mellow kite]

Hi

[earnest barn]

[rough sandal]

[rough sandal]

That's more like it

[frozen trench]

That laptop doesn't exist

He's literally making it up

[rough sandal]

5090 desktop

[keen vessel]

that would be an S tier purchase

[rough sandal]

He would pair it with a x3d desktop too

Like

[frozen trench]

No no I'm not kidding ahap is making up that laptop

[rough sandal]

Pc

Desktop pc bro

Not laptop

[frozen trench]

Cause he don't wanna buy the clearly superior MSI laptop

[young raven]

Virtual insanity

[frozen trench]

Or a PC Wich would indeed be better

[earnest barn]

Bruh is not paying attention

[young raven]

https://tenor.com/view/jamiroquai-virtual-insanity-watermark-gif-27628516

https://tenor.com/view/cat-lost-mind-share-this-cat-gif-10624429942940364630

Buy that instead

[rough sandal]

[frozen trench]

Yes

[rough sandal]

Get the 4070 instead

[frozen trench]

Ally is 1080p

[rough sandal]

Fireee in the dumpster

[frozen trench]

Also

[earnest barn]

Purple one more time the 5070 version of that laptop has a Ryzen model.. I will get that for 2k and then I will build a PC with a 5090 and the newer Ryzen X3D. Are we clear now because I can't explain this any other way

[frozen trench]

Would you believe that my ROG ally

Is purple

[rough sandal]

Just buy a car atp

[earnest barn]

I have 2?

Tf

[rough sandal]

To no one's supris-

[rough sandal]

What models tho

[frozen trench]

Ok if you're building such a high end PC, there's no reason to spend that money on a laptop unless it's work related or smth

[rough sandal]

Exactly bruh

[frozen trench]

Think on the bright side

[earnest barn]

Don't worry about this

[frozen trench]

It could have been an MSI claw

With Intel

[rough sandal]

🪦

[earnest barn]

For funsies did you consider this one

[rough sandal]

Crazy

I wish i could drop 2k for funsies

[rough sandal]

[earnest barn]

Not happening with a 5070

[frozen trench]

X3d

Nobody should buy a brand new gaming PC or laptop in 2025 without x3d

[earnest barn]

This is what I have now
https://rog.asus.com/us/laptops/rog-zephyrus/rog-zephyrus-g14-2024/

[frozen trench]

Keep using it for longer

It's fine

[earnest barn]

No it's not

Trash

Outdated

[bitter void]

i'm using a 2022 xD

[earnest barn]

Need new one

Every year

[bitter void]

just have to settle for laptop specs, if you need desktop performance you'll need a desktop

[frozen trench]

Yes need new one, with x3d in it

[earnest barn]

Bruh why am I doing this if I'm getting a desktop

Why do I need it in both

[frozen trench]

Then dont get a gaming laptop

get smth else

[narrow void]

HELLOOO!
Friendly reminder: Hydrate, get a good meal and have a beautiful day! Hope the day treats you well

[frozen trench]

its like ordering a ferrari without the lil horse

whats the point

[earnest barn]

Because I still need to play warframe when I'm not home hello?

(warframe runs on potato integrated graphics on basically anything)

[earnest barn]

I don't need battery life 😭 that's the thing those have over just a small laptop besides like price

I'd buy a RoG Flow first

And that's just a tablet

[spare saffron]

is that wish.com rog ally

[frozen trench]

Its an ROG ally, it just has a gripcase and modded back

[spare saffron]

ahh that's why it looks weird

i see

[frozen trench]

See, its purple

much better then the original

[spare saffron]

HandheldDIY

good to know

[frozen trench]

Their products are really good stuff

they do one for the steamdeck too

Ahh the psp

Where’s the vita

[frozen trench]

@main storm

[main storm]

Oh my 😭😭

[frozen trench]

[main storm]

In working conditions?

[frozen trench]

PSP no, vita, 100%

[main storm]

If yess im coming to Brazil

[main storm]

Can u even fix the psp now?

Is that still possible?

[frozen trench]

I mean, the PSP is not exactly broken, i'd just need to swap the front shell and get a new battery

and it would work just fine

[rough sandal]

W

[frozen trench]

its just that vita runs all psp games but better

so no reason to bother

[rough sandal]

Just buy a used one bro

They're cheap

Vita is more expensive tho

[main storm]

Was thinking the same for a 3ds

[frozen trench]

3DS used prices are insane currently

[main storm]

I really want one

[rough sandal]

It's expensive too

[rough sandal]

Real

[frozen trench]

people are selling new 3ds for more then switches

kinda insane

and its not worth getting any 3ds exept for the new 3ds or XL

[rough sandal]

This is the real deal

[main storm]

😭😭

Old ass sonic game

[frozen trench]

Anyway

if you get a vita

get a vita slim

[main storm]

[frozen trench]

don't get the OLED vita

[main storm]

I don’t know what the difference is

[spark bison]

go get your vitamins folks

[rough sandal]

Why wtf

[main storm]

Folk. . .

[frozen trench]

Oled is vita 1, the original, the color screen look better and all BUT theres 3 issues with it

[main storm]

W marketing

[frozen trench]

1 - Its an over 10 years old oled screen

[rough sandal]

🪦

[frozen trench]

most of them are degraded

[rough sandal]

Who cares

[frozen trench]

and will have issues overtime

[rough sandal]

Oled is oled

🤫

[frozen trench]

Second of all and the biggest problem

the charger

vita oled uses a proprietary charger

vita slim use a regular USB

making it much much better

[main storm]

Ahh

[rough sandal]

Just get an oled vita

[frozen trench]

And 3rd of all, vita slim is more confortable to hold

i have a vita OLED, i'd trade it for a vita slim anyday

OLED on top, slim in the bottom

[main storm]

If I were to get any old gaming consoles it would be a 3ds and a Wii

[main storm]

[frozen trench]

The slim is just much more confortable

[rough sandal]

🪦🪦🪦

[main storm]

Damnn

[frozen trench]

specially the start select on the oled that sucks

[main storm]

It’s like twice its size

[rough sandal]

I want a wii
