Rinis#2222: My brother is selling it Rinis#2222: the memory will be shite though, afaik the a320s run at just 2122mhz Rinis#2222: not too sure DarknessFalls229#2286: selling a 2600 for 40?? i wants DarknessFalls229#2286: _as i still need to upgrade my pc_ DarknessFalls229#2286: _but also sell other shite so i can buy more stuff_ JustinXenyx#8854: no, the A320's are mem oc capable @Rinis Rinis#2222: fr?

JustinXenyx#8854: Its absolute crap, numbers can vary highly from run to run and its numbers aren't even realisticly comparable GoldenSky#4649: Definitely better than CPU benchmark GoldenSky#4649: I just look up cinebench scores for a CPU, find the highest and the lowest and go with an in-between value to determine performance (These are usually all non-K Intel CPUs) TheFifthAce#4128: userbenchmark is worst TheFifthAce#4128: literally puts your components under load for 2 seconds TheFifthAce#4128: not a real test by any stretch of the word TheFifthAce#4128: you can get a shitty score simply because your cpu turbos up slightly slower TheFifthAce#4128: @Gamefreak924 asking a bit much there, its the athlon xp 3200+ thats worth dough TheFifthAce#4128: the athlon 64 3200+ is just a weak athlon Gamefreak924#5901: I mean finding a price comparison was difficult for me. I put it a bit less than what I can find it for. I'm always willing to hear a negotiation TheFifthAce#4128: @Gamefreak924 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/570577093394432000/Capture_2019-04-24-07-49-29.png TheFifthAce#4128: 10$ off ebay lol TheFifthAce#4128: like I said TheFifthAce#4128: 64 is weak athlon TheFifthAce#4128: xp is valuable
Gamefreak924#5901: 3200 != 3400 TheFifthAce#4128: @Gamefreak924 you had 3200+ listed TheFifthAce#4128: dont try to pull one on me TheFifthAce#4128: I see that :edited: Gamefreak924#5901: Look again TheFifthAce#4128: @Gamefreak924 is it the mobile one or the desktop one Gamefreak924#5901: I literally had 3400 up the entire time TheFifthAce#4128: Not that it matters, 754 accepted both Gamefreak924#5901: Desktop Gamefreak924#5901: The edit was me debating whether I should put the actual name in bold to let people see better what I'm offering. And I decided against it after changing it Gamefreak924#5901: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/570578344517697536/image0.jpg TheFifthAce#4128: @Gamefreak924 @TheFifthAce https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/570578396204236800/Capture_2019-04-24-07-53-57.png DarknessFalls229#2286: Did you just ping yourself? Gamefreak924#5901: The key that I look at is the actual part number (ADA) TheFifthAce#4128: If you need to look up prices, go to ebay and look at "sold" times
TheFifthAce#4128: @DarknessFalls229 yes @TheFifthAce DarknessFalls229#2286: But why TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/570579074515206154/Capture_2019-04-24-07-56-44.png TheFifthAce#4128: heres some with ada part number, as if it really matters TheFifthAce#4128: @Gamefreak924 TheFifthAce#4128: none of the athlon 64s are all that valuable lol, except the super high end ones Gamefreak924#5901: Right. And those don't match. Some people just really want that specific CPU :/ I dunno what to tell you Gamefreak924#5901: I've seen people buy a lot less for a lot more TheFifthAce#4128: those people are not going to be here lol TheFifthAce#4128: sell it on ebay if you want rich collectors to pay for it TheFifthAce#4128: The retro enthusiasts here aren't going to pay extra for a slightly different part number Gamefreak924#5901: I don't get what the problem is so much.. DarknessFalls229#2286: the problem is that folks here aint gonna pay 60 bucks for it TheFifthAce#4128: you're asking 60$ for a cpu they can get for 8$ with a different serial number that performs identically lmao TheFifthAce#4128: how dont you see the problem @Gamefreak924
GoldenSky#4649: ☠ Gamefreak924#5901: You could say the same thing in terms of video games on different systems. But there are people who collect or want to rebuild old systems with the exact part GoldenSky#4649: You really can't GoldenSky#4649: It's the exact same CPU for the same socket GoldenSky#4649: You're using really flawed logic to try to justify it Gamefreak924#5901: Not really GoldenSky#4649: If they want to rebuild old systems with "that exact part" they'll go for the cheaper option Gamefreak924#5901: I work at a place that basically makes money from this flawed logic lol DarknessFalls229#2286: so youre saying that i could sell a waterblocked 690 for 600$ just because someone looks for that exact part? GoldenSky#4649: Let me just sell my PS4 controller for €90 because it's white and they might want that exact one Gamefreak924#5901: I mean I collect video games. I'm not gonna go buy a reproduction cart of a game just because it's $40 cheaper GoldenSky#4649: Even though it sells for €50-60 Gamefreak924#5901: People are different GoldenSky#4649: Hell, €40 even GoldenSky#4649: Right, but that CPU isn't a reproduction, so what's your point?
Gamefreak924#5901: >__>' GoldenSky#4649: You're selling the exact same thing for a huge mark up Gamefreak924#5901: You people care way too much about this. Then just go buy the CPU on ebay TheFifthAce#4128: @Gamefreak924 good plan TheFifthAce#4128: because trying to sell a specific serial number of a cpu for 7 times the value in a budget server really isn't the smartest idea lmao TheFifthAce#4128: it's worth like 8$ TheFifthAce#4128: shitty athlon is shitty athlon, yours isn't in good shape, and the different serial number doesn't change the chip in any way GoldenSky#4649: Every serial number is unique anyway, are they not? TheFifthAce#4128: yes lol JustinXenyx#8854: @Gamefreak924 It doesnt quite work that way with processors. And your CPU isn't even unique, you literally just posted the OEM partnumber GoldenSky#4649: Yeah, so Gamefreak, you have 0 justification for this TheFifthAce#4128: it's literally just not worth 60$ TheFifthAce#4128: it's worth 8$ at most, and probably less because its in shitty condition JustinXenyx#8854: Its not even worth $8 TheFifthAce#4128: ^
TheFifthAce#4128: it's a shitty athlon 64 TheFifthAce#4128: got an athlon 64 fx? those are worth money TheFifthAce#4128: got an athlon xp 3200? money TheFifthAce#4128: any regular athlon 64? basically trash TheFifthAce#4128: especially on 754, a mostly unsupported socket whose main selling point is that it works with the mobile variants of the chips JustinXenyx#8854: 754 was the budget chipset, why the fuck would a almost 2 decade old cpu cost 60 bucks from a budget platform? TheFifthAce#4128: the only valuable athlons are athlon xp 3200+, and athlon 64 fx TheFifthAce#4128: anything else is a tableweight JustinXenyx#8854: Also, it doesn't have dual channel, it has a super crippled HT link and its clocked like shit JustinXenyx#8854: And you want 60 Bucks? I could swear i could get much better athlons for 1/10th of the price TheFifthAce#4128: you can get an athlon 64 x2 6000+ for 8$ lol Gamefreak924#5901: You people have your opinions, and I have mine. But I'll go make your hearts all warm. JustinXenyx#8854: @Gamefreak924 Its not opinions, its straight up facts Gamefreak924#5901: >when a perspective is a fact Gamefreak924#5901: Yeah okie
TheFifthAce#4128: the serial number means literally nothing game lmao, it changes from cpu to cpu JustinXenyx#8854: So, me telling your processor is worth nothing is a fucking perspective? Ok Sherlock Gamefreak924#5901: It's a part number. Not a serial number. Serial numbers are unique Gamefreak924#5901: Whatever. I took down the message. Will you guys stop badgering me now? RandomTacos#3695: If the sliders are maxed in afterburner, can you push the card further by punching in higher numbers MythologicalZ#3752: Very cool RandomTacos#3695: Thank, moth JegKompletson#3381: How's this? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JQddLJ (I already have the Memory and the Storage stuff, so no need for that.) JegKompletson#3381: I'm an utter noob at PC building, so go on, laugh. MythologicalZ#3752: That RAM is shite for Ryzen MythologicalZ#3752: Board is ok but I personally wouldn't run it with a 2700x MythologicalZ#3752: 1660 is eh,I'd look for used a 580 8GB MythologicalZ#3752: SSD is great to have too and fairly cheap
JegKompletson#3381: What RAM would you recommend? JegKompletson#3381: And any trusted websites for used PC parts would be helpful. RandomTacos#3695: 3200mhz is about the sweet spot RandomTacos#3695: If you're us I'd suggest offerup MythologicalZ#3752: 2666 minimum for Ryzen tbh MythologicalZ#3752: And dual channel too MythologicalZ#3752: So no 16GB sticks or anything like that mi3night#2562: ^case? RandomTacos#3695: Why not 16gb sticks @MythologicalZ? RandomTacos#3695: That's what I'm running MythologicalZ#3752: I meant in single channel RandomTacos#3695: Oh right MythologicalZ#3752: Some people buy a 3466 16GB or something since that'll be enough RAM and forget about dual RandomTacos#3695: Smh RandomTacos#3695: I guess it makes sense
RandomTacos#3695: They hear, "just get atleast 16gb" MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah JegKompletson#3381: oh whoops, no dox JegKompletson#3381: offerup's not working JegKompletson#3381: for me MythologicalZ#3752: It's US only JegKompletson#3381: Aw shit MythologicalZ#3752: What region you in? JegKompletson#3381: Asia JustinXenyx#8854: As people already mentioned, the RAM is shit and you should probably get a SSD too @JegKompletson mi3night#2562: @JegKompletson seek taobao mi3night#2562: If ur close to China mi3night#2562: Or Ali express JegKompletson#3381: But taobao is Chinese mi3night#2562: Ur close to China?
JegKompletson#3381: Yeah, kinda JegKompletson#3381: But me no read Chinese https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/570642360988467200/unknown.png mi3night#2562: Oh google translate MythologicalZ#3752: Chrome GoldenSky#4649: Chrome has a built-in translator MythologicalZ#3752: Ez translate GoldenSky#4649: Right click the webpage and click Translate mi3night#2562: U don’t have to worry about shipping/import since ur closer than US JustinXenyx#8854: Also, why go for a 1660? Its a pretty meh card, you should go for atleast a 1660Ti @JegKompletson JustinXenyx#8854: the 1660 is barely better than the 1060 JegKompletson#3381: I just surfed some websites and they said its good *and* cheap And I'm like "aok fine sure why not" JustinXenyx#8854: Also, just mentioning this on the side, the 1650 doesn't even match the RX570 for 30 bucks more. Unless they make good low profile cards with them i will refuse to recommend these cards at their current retail prices MythologicalZ#3752: Indeed JegKompletson#3381: Used stuff seems too risky to buy tbh
JustinXenyx#8854: You'd think that, but you just need to buy from the proper and trusted sources JustinXenyx#8854: Most of us here have parts in their rigs that are used. Hell, a lot of us just have entire rigs with just used parts MythologicalZ#3752: My entire rig ATM is used MythologicalZ#3752: Works just fine MythologicalZ#3752: Like Justin said,just get a good source for your parts DarknessFalls229#2286: My main system is fully built with used hardware GoldenSky#4649: Same DarknessFalls229#2286: The CPUZ bench isnt letting my cpu turbo. Hm weird JegKompletson#3381: 2666 is enough for Ryzen, or should I go higher? JustinXenyx#8854: Always go higher than 2666 JegKompletson#3381: 3200 then? JustinXenyx#8854: 2666Mhz is bare minimum, i'd go atleast 3000Mhz for optimal performance JegKompletson#3381: or 3000 is okay? JegKompletson#3381: Sure. RandomTacos#3695: Again, 3200 is about the sweet spot @JegKompletson
JegKompletson#3381: Okay. JegKompletson#3381: As for the SSDs you recommended, how does the WD Black SN750 NVMe SSD compare amongst the others? JegKompletson#3381: How about now? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bcMm9J JustinXenyx#8854: Looks capable, but i'd rather get the 1660 over the 580 at that price JegKompletson#3381: 1660Ti, you mean? Or the og one? JustinXenyx#8854: the 1660 is marginally more expensive than the 580 in that list, but if you can afford it definitely go for the 1660Ti JustinXenyx#8854: Also, that WD SSD is pretty capable, it performs similar to Samsungs PCIe X4 SSD's JegKompletson#3381: Lemme see then JegKompletson#3381: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/JegKompletson/saved/ZMVYHx Good, no? JustinXenyx#8854: That looks pretty decent TheFifthAce#4128: Why buy a cooler TheFifthAce#4128: 2700x comes with wraith prism TheFifthAce#4128: @JegKompletson
Alcyone#2233: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sbRCTB no cooler, faster ram, cheaper 512gb x4 nvme, best 1660ti Bwenfwake#6869: Hey guys, I found a 970 for cheap lol https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GTX790-PCi-EGraphics-card/293057522202?hash=item443b96ea1a:g:FJUAAOSwkqZcuY4l&frcectupt=true Bwenfwake#6869: £90 is pretty decent JustinXenyx#8854: @Alcyone where is the rest of the system lol JustinXenyx#8854: @TheFifthAce I can see why you would do that, to optimize temps and to make the system a lot quieter Alcyone#2233: thats all the guy had on the list, I assume he has the rest TheFifthAce#4128: I guess TheFifthAce#4128: But spending 90 extra for it? TheFifthAce#4128: srry for tag alcyone JustinXenyx#8854: Also, my assumption is that the guy is just using parts relative to the stuff he can afford in his country JustinXenyx#8854: Which is why i never made a partslist myself, as the dude is in a Asian country and we dunno which exact one, so prices can vary wildly TheFifthAce#4128: tru TheFifthAce#4128: @Bwenfwake 970 bad tho TheFifthAce#4128: just get rx 480
JustinXenyx#8854: shit price for a card that performance @Bwenfwake TheFifthAce#4128: ^^ TheFifthAce#4128: Rx 470 or 480 TheFifthAce#4128: much better choice JustinXenyx#8854: You can grab 470's and 470D's for like 70 quid now Bwenfwake#6869: Lol nah, twas a joke. Look at the ad carefully 😂 Bwenfwake#6869: I mean come on gtx 790 JustinXenyx#8854: @Bwenfwake I looked at the Ad, it IS a 970 JustinXenyx#8854: just a slight typo in the title Bwenfwake#6869: Yeah ik, just surprised me haha. What is a good deal tho is a Titan black for £85 Bwenfwake#6869: @JustinXenyx JustinXenyx#8854: Not really JustinXenyx#8854: Its just a skimped 780Ti, which is even worse than a GTX970 or a RX570 MythologicalZ#3752: You have throw Titan branding into the mix though JustinXenyx#8854: Why should i care about the branding if it performs the same anyway? Sure the Titan brand is associated with expensive GPU's, but thats because the ass-hats at Nvidia made it that way
MythologicalZ#3752: 🗿 MythologicalZ#3752: That's not the point,market is influenced by the branding so it needs to be taken into account thatubuntuguy#5914: what marketing thatubuntuguy#5914: har har har MythologicalZ#3752: What JustinXenyx#8854: Market, not marketing @thatubuntuguy thatubuntuguy#5914: oh lmao cant read JustinXenyx#8854: I can kinda agree with that. Sure, from a pure performance standpoint a Titan Black for 85 Quid is ass. But with the Titan brandings "price-rise" added to the mix it may not be that bad of a price JegKompletson#3381: ok, am back. I took @Alcyone's RAM and SSD. And I'm from India. https://in.pcpartpicker.com/list/XHLfw6 MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah as a usage card it's shite DarknessFalls229#2286: you took his ram and SSD? thief! MythologicalZ#3752: Since Polaris and all TheFifthAce#4128: @JegKompletson so why spend extra on cooler btw
JegKompletson#3381: uh DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, doesnt the CPU come with a half-decent cooler? TheFifthAce#4128: 2700x comes with wraith prism TheFifthAce#4128: its an awesome cooler MythologicalZ#3752: If you're planning on pushing OCs that board won't be the best choice JegKompletson#3381: But, I've been recommended the Noctua one, so I just thought I should include it. This is my first build, remember. I know near nothing about these things MythologicalZ#3752: It's a decent piece of kit but it's not gonna hold up with a 4.3Ghz 2700x or something TheFifthAce#4128: @JegKompletson just drop the cooler and spend the money on a better mobo JegKompletson#3381: ok MythologicalZ#3752: Or just drop the cooler and keep the board DarknessFalls229#2286: then later, if you want to OC, get a better cooler TheFifthAce#4128: ye TheFifthAce#4128: that board is fine DarknessFalls229#2286: but for a first build, stock ryzen heatsink is fiiiiine TheFifthAce#4128: but like why x470 gaming plus
TheFifthAce#4128: just get a b450 TheFifthAce#4128: tomahawk DarknessFalls229#2286: _haek_ TheFifthAce#4128: ill eat ur ass JustinXenyx#8854: because the X470 gaming plus is better than most B450's from MSI you donk TheFifthAce#4128: tomahawk tho JustinXenyx#8854: the tomahawk is overpriced TheFifthAce#4128: I thought x470 gaming plus was a b450 with better vrm and a different chipset TheFifthAce#4128: steel legend time JegKompletson#3381: Whoa the tomahawk is like 2K cheaper than the X470 Gaming Plus for me Bwenfwake#6869: btw I bought the Titan Black anyway lol MythologicalZ#3752: Are you planning on OCing? @JegKompletson JegKompletson#3381: Not really. MythologicalZ#3752: Eh,I'd say get a Tomahawk and a 2700 non x then MythologicalZ#3752: Save the cash and get more storage or a better PSU or something
TheFifthAce#4128: @MythologicalZ 2700 means he'd have to buy a cooler TheFifthAce#4128: Wraith spire isnt as good TheFifthAce#4128: Barely keeps my oced 2600 cool MythologicalZ#3752: Mhm MythologicalZ#3752: He'd probably save enough to be able to get a good cooler TheFifthAce#4128: dark rock pro 4 time JegKompletson#3381: Well I've saved like 12K and the Noctua cooler could easily fit in. What do you guys think? JegKompletson#3381: And what is "The motherboard M.2 slot #1 shares bandwidth with SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports. When the M.2 slot is populated, two SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports are disabled." supposed to mean. MythologicalZ#3752: Two Sata ports are out if you run M.2 TheFifthAce#4128: it means 2 sata ports are disabled when the nvme is in TheFifthAce#4128: but u have 6 ports TheFifthAce#4128: so its fine JegKompletson#3381: okay then. JegKompletson#3381: And about the cooler? TheFifthAce#4128: @JegKompletson how much is a dark rock pro 4
TheFifthAce#4128: :Kappa: JustinXenyx#8854: If you really wanna go for that Noctua silence, go for it. But a Dark Rock 4 is probably the better option for you price-wise TheFifthAce#4128: or more realistically, a deepcool neptwin JustinXenyx#8854: @TheFifthAce DRP4 is kinda overkill tbh TheFifthAce#4128: yes JustinXenyx#8854: So is the Noctua TheFifthAce#4128: yes TheFifthAce#4128: deepcool neptwin TheFifthAce#4128: or scythe fuma JustinXenyx#8854: the neptwin looks like they took 2 hyper 212 evos and glued them together TheFifthAce#4128: or a gammaxx I gues TheFifthAce#4128: neptwin still keeps shit cool JegKompletson#3381: Dark rock pro 4 is 6K on newegg, 14K on amazon JustinXenyx#8854: 6K for a Pro4 is pretty neat, when the Noctua costs 12k JustinXenyx#8854: the Pro4 isnt that far off from the Noctua
JegKompletson#3381: Okay then the Pro 4 it is TheFifthAce#4128: nice JegKompletson#3381: Final thing - https://in.pcpartpicker.com/list/CrsjTB JegKompletson#3381: Thanks guys, will ask any further doubts JegKompletson#3381: G'night TheFifthAce#4128: @JegKompletson what case JegKompletson#3381: uh JustinXenyx#8854: LMAO JegKompletson#3381: Corsair Carbide SPEC-Delta TheFifthAce#4128: h500 time TheFifthAce#4128: o ok JegKompletson#3381: I think that's whjat it is TheFifthAce#4128: is h500 cheaper TheFifthAce#4128: its easier to build in
TheFifthAce#4128: i m o JegKompletson#3381: It is cheaper yes. JegKompletson#3381: Newegg is suddenly extremely cheap, 5K for the h500 JegKompletson#3381: 11K on amazon.in TheFifthAce#4128: ya yeet TheFifthAce#4128: I like the h500 but you do u, its what you'll be looking at JegKompletson#3381: Its nice to look at, will decide later mi3night#2562: @JegKompletson no one case is perfect it’s all up to preference actually GoldenSky#4649: Gonna try to install Windows 7 with the Windows 8 setup GoldenSky#4649: Hopefully it'll work GoldenSky#4649: Should be good to go if it detects the eMMC drive mi3night#2562: eMMC GoldenSky#4649: Yeah, it's one of those 2017 budget laptops GoldenSky#4649: Update: it worked and it's installing Windows 7 GoldenSky#4649: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/570691647202000986/JPEG_20190424_202437.jpg
TheFifthAce#4128: How do I view GB partitions in file manager? TheFifthAce#4128: I have 2 macbook hdds that I can view in partition manager but cant see in file manager TheFifthAce#4128: and I need to get the files off them TheFifthAce#4128: found a way Jam#0384: You can in uh Storage Manage or whatever you call it DarknessFalls229#2286: @TheFifthAce wait, what about using "open" and "explore"? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/570714845578788874/unknown.png TheFifthAce#4128: those didnt pop up TheFifthAce#4128: but I got something else to work TheFifthAce#4128: "HFSExplorer" DarknessFalls229#2286: any idea what cause the drives to not show up in file explorer? TheFifthAce#4128: uh they're macbook drives TheFifthAce#4128: xd DarknessFalls229#2286: of course DarknessFalls229#2286: 🍎 TheFifthAce#4128: @DarknessFalls229 bristol ridge is just another fx style architecture isnt it
DarknessFalls229#2286: hm? dunno DarknessFalls229#2286: i dont know every achitecture's name DarknessFalls229#2286: "These parts were the highest performing iteration of AMD’s Bulldozer design" DarknessFalls229#2286: i guess thats a yes DarknessFalls229#2286: it is indeed fx DarknessFalls229#2286: @TheFifthAce why ask? TheFifthAce#4128: came up in conversation DarknessFalls229#2286: oh alright, however strange to ask me about architectures TheFifthAce#4128: well you were just talking DarknessFalls229#2286: that is true thatubuntuguy#5914: HEHEEEEEE RESURRECTING FX IN 2019 DarknessFalls229#2286: 2016* thatubuntuguy#5914: my bad DarknessFalls229#2286: still not great though, as they knew FX had flopped DarknessFalls229#2286: unless Excavator v2 is actually somewhat good
TheFifthAce#4128: So is there a way to bios flash the motherboard on my Inspiron 530S to be able to support quad core 775s TheFifthAce#4128: g33m02 mi3night#2562: Imagine 4 1151 cpu motherboard Jam#0384: So basically imagine an oven Jam#0384: disguised as a PC SuSSudio#2688: :HEYY: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/intel-roadmap-10nm-14nm-gpu-cpu,39163.html Evvy#0001: lake Lady Mipha#0611: how big are these lakes gonna get thatubuntuguy#5914: 14nm again hehee Deleted User#0000: **serious problem about getting new amd rig** lately im using the secondary computer which has those specs: Asrock p67 pro b3 Samsung DDR3-12800 4gb*2 (8gb)
Intel Core i5-3570 @4.00 (I dont wrote gpu and other specs coz im not gonna sell it) exactly I can sell this rig around 100$ on here, also considering to get the new amd rig on future with R3 1200 system. should i need to sell this old rig to get a fresh amd rig or not? (already have the processor, selling the old rig makes me get a new mobo and some ddr4 stick) Rio#1000: i dont know why you bought a 1200 as an upgrade from a 3570, because it barely is Rio#1000: but sure TheFifthAce#4128: go for an r5 1400 system instead if you can return the 1200 Robin#5845: What is the max overclocks you guys have seen for the ryzen 1700x? Robin#5845: I could only get mine to 3.85 at 1.38 vlts DarknessFalls229#2286: a friend of mine got it around that high too Robin#5845: I really dont know how people can get theirs to 4ghz its crazy, does the chipset help?
Robin#5845: Im using b350 DarknessFalls229#2286: well, my friend got some high end x370 so i dunno, but hes also using the stock cooler DarknessFalls229#2286: are you running an aftermarket cooler? Robin#5845: Yeah Im using a gammax 400 Robin#5845: with two fans on it Robin#5845: but i want to get a ncotua dhu-15 DarknessFalls229#2286: hmm guessing then that your chip is running too hot or are you on chipset limitations? Robin#5845: I really don't think so the max temp i get is 56c Robin#5845: i get an idle temp of 29 DarknessFalls229#2286: i think you are on chipset limits then, it wont clock higher unless you put in an unreasonable amount of voltage Robin#5845: would you recommend x499? DarknessFalls229#2286: isnt that the TR4 platform? not AM4? MythologicalZ#3752: X499 isn't a thing DarknessFalls229#2286: also, i mean your CPU cant go any higher Robin#5845: I thought it was the chipset for the latest AM4 ryzen cpus
DarknessFalls229#2286: the mobo might but will run hot when a lot of voltage is used DarknessFalls229#2286: you mean x470 Robin#5845: yeah x470 DarknessFalls229#2286: i think you just need a better binned chip MythologicalZ#3752: What board do you currently have? DarknessFalls229#2286: some b350 MythologicalZ#3752: Not particularly helpful Robin#5845: i have the asrock pro 4 microatx MythologicalZ#3752: Could be a shit Gigabyte or something MythologicalZ#3752: Aj MythologicalZ#3752: Pro4 MythologicalZ#3752: Ehhhh MythologicalZ#3752: If you plan to stick to Ryzen and get Zen 3 I'd get a X370 in any case Robin#5845: its got some okay heatsinks on the vrms I want to mount a fan on top of the case Robin#5845: yeah Im planning on upgrading to ryzen 3 as soon as it comes out
DarknessFalls229#2286: psst myth, its zen 2 and ryzen 3 MythologicalZ#3752: Then X370 will be helpful MythologicalZ#3752: Same thing essentially DarknessFalls229#2286: you said "Zen 3" MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah yeah MythologicalZ#3752: Either way a decent X370 will help stand the test of time MythologicalZ#3752: Just don't get a Titanium DarknessFalls229#2286: or do you reckon he should get x470 or even the future x570 chipsets? Robin#5845: I'm planning on going all out on a mobo for my next build so i dont have any oc limitations and I really want to get nicely cooled vrms MythologicalZ#3752: Gaming 7 or Pro Carbon then Robin#5845: what brand are they? MythologicalZ#3752: CH7 is an LN2 board MythologicalZ#3752: Gigabyte/Aorus and MSI Robin#5845: oh alright taptapking#6216: I found an radeon 9800 deal for just $5
taptapking#6216: should I cop it? Rio#1000: @MythologicalZ whats wrong with the titanium? Rio#1000: if its the it not running zen2 thing that's a load of shit Rio#1000: "It has come to our attention that MSI Customer Support has regrettably misinformed an MSI customer with regards to potential support for next-gen AMD CPUs on the MSI X370 XPOWER GAMING TITANIUM motherboard. Through this statement we want clarify the current situation. At this point, we are still performing extensive testing on our existing lineup of 300- and 400-series AM4 motherboards to verify potential compatibility for the next-gen AMD Ryzen CPUs. To be clear: Our intention is to offer maximum compatibility for as many MSI products as possible. Towards the launch of the next-gen AMD CPUs, we will release a compatibility list of MSI AM4 motherboards." mi3night#2562: Should I get oppo find x JustinXenyx#8854: I wouldn't JustinXenyx#8854: The sliding-mechanism isn't really tested in its durability, it only has a 1080p display (and come on, at that price 1440p is a must) and it has no headphone jack JustinXenyx#8854: But if that doesn't bother you, go for it @mi3night mi3night#2562: What about huawei p30 JustinXenyx#8854: the regular one? mi3night#2562: Or the pro mi3night#2562: Might look for either one mi3night#2562: All the reviews I see is so biased
JustinXenyx#8854: They're both decent phones, but the notch and the 1080p only display in that price category are again unacceptable at this price in my eyes JustinXenyx#8854: Some don't have a problem with the 1080p display and sure, its plenty sharp, but the price should allow for a better display than just 1080p JustinXenyx#8854: Sony even puts fucking 4K displays on their Premium phones TheFifthAce#4128: the heck is silents low end config thing TheFifthAce#4128: literally just a config file for turning down settings with no explanation of how to use it? TheFifthAce#4128: @Prec1sioN can you remove that TheFifthAce#4128: not only do you not have testing, you don't have any explanation for how it works mi3night#2562: @JustinXenyx anything else about p30 JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, EMUI can be somewhat of a pisscan when it comes do android JustinXenyx#8854: I don't like it at all JustinXenyx#8854: But except that they're really great phones mi3night#2562: Compared to s10 which is similar price JustinXenyx#8854: S10 has the better feature set overall mi3night#2562: Such as GoldenSky#4649: Try for a OnePlus 6/6T
GoldenSky#4649: *One of* the best Android phones out there JustinXenyx#8854: features the P30 doesnt have: DeX, Wireless + reserve wireless charging, 1440p display, IP68 waterproofing, can record 4k 60fps video JustinXenyx#8854: @GoldenSky I mean, its pretty decent, but again only a 1080p display. Like, the phone is easily 550-ish euros, pounds or USD and i could easily grab a phone for probably even less than that with a 1440p screen and similar features GoldenSky#4649: 1080p display = less GPU stress = more battery life GoldenSky#4649: 1440p is useless on something as small as a phone. TheFifthAce#4128: I wish I could downscale my phone TheFifthAce#4128: I do appreciate how high quality screenshots are though GoldenSky#4649: It's totally unnecessary to have a 1440p display JustinXenyx#8854: I wasn't saying the 1080p display is bad, just that at this kinda price you should expect 1440p as far as i see it @GoldenSky MythologicalZ#3752: @Rio x370 titanium vrms aren't great, especially compared to the x99 version,ik the whole MSI thing was resolved JustinXenyx#8854: @TheFifthAce I think you can do that with custom roms on the LG G6 Rio#1000: still retardo overkill for anything ryzen though lets be honest @MythologicalZ MythologicalZ#3752: Eh fair TheFifthAce#4128: its still under warranty TheFifthAce#4128: ain't finna fuck with roms
JustinXenyx#8854: I still don't get why smartphone manufacturers are so pissy about custom roms Rio#1000: what phone fifth? JustinXenyx#8854: LG G6 @Rio Rio#1000: tbh they really arent currently Rio#1000: Samsung even have a bootloader unlock in settings Rio#1000: it voids warranty because companies don't want to have to fix peoples rom fuckups JustinXenyx#8854: They should have a seperate thing for that like "If your attempt at running software from untrusted sources hasn't been successful you don't apply for the warranty anmore" JustinXenyx#8854: Not like "IF YOU HAVE CUSTOM ROM, YOUR DEAD TO US" DarknessFalls229#2286: Can't y'all do this? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571018237366763540/Screenshot_20190425-190205.png TheFifthAce#4128: idk JustinXenyx#8854: @DarknessFalls229 LG doesn't have that in their current Software DarknessFalls229#2286: hm interesting DarknessFalls229#2286: i would've assumed they would have it by now, as ive got an oold flagship JustinXenyx#8854: The G7 and G8 have that by now, i'm waiting for the Android 9 update and hope they implement the res-change feature into the G6 too JustinXenyx#8854: But i just wanna mention, the G6 is a hella nice phone for its price, i got it for christmas and it only cost 230-ish euros, probably is pretty decently priced on the used market too
TheFifthAce#4128: I got it like 2 years ago DarknessFalls229#2286: all i need is to repair my phone DarknessFalls229#2286: i need a new lens, new screen protector and a new case DarknessFalls229#2286: how i broke the lens is still somewhat of a mystery to me JustinXenyx#8854: I got a box of iPhones from my brother today, i'm gonna find everything thats usable and maybe its enough parts to build a working one lol DarknessFalls229#2286: lol nice DarknessFalls229#2286: oh btw, for how much do you reckon i can sell this budged gaming system for: FM2 board, 4GB of ram, A8-5600k, GTX750, 320GB WD Black, 350 watt be quiet 80+ PSU JustinXenyx#8854: i'd say like 100-ish euros DarknessFalls229#2286: cool DarknessFalls229#2286: got it for 30 so should be a nice flip JustinXenyx#8854: nice DarknessFalls229#2286: and that while i took the 530w PSU, 8GB and some nice fans out and 320GB HDD, 350w PSU and 4gb in TheFifthAce#4128: why are some a8s fm2 and some am4 TheFifthAce#4128: :tech_jesus:
DarknessFalls229#2286: refresh TheFifthAce#4128: illegal TheFifthAce#4128: 🍇 JustinXenyx#8854: no refresh, they're all bulldozer TheFifthAce#4128: that was meant to be a grr DarknessFalls229#2286: yOuRe IllEGal TheFifthAce#4128: BristOl RiDge so ItS noT buLldoEr ANymORE hAH YeS DarknessFalls229#2286: omg that illegal is unreadable TheFifthAce#4128: :killem: JustinXenyx#8854: AMD just decided that they should use the rest of Bulldozer stock for their APU's on AM4, so that they can still flip a decent buck on those DarknessFalls229#2286: as long as the price is low, it should be alright JustinXenyx#8854: In my eyes you should chuck in 8GB in dual channel, get the 750 out and maybe sell it for 60-70€ @DarknessFalls229 TheFifthAce#4128: justin TheFifthAce#4128: I got 3x4gb 2400mhz for 25$ TheFifthAce#4128: :dAB:
JustinXenyx#8854: D3 or D4? TheFifthAce#4128: d4 DarknessFalls229#2286: hmmm i dunno TheFifthAce#4128: ddr3 doesnt go that high does it TheFifthAce#4128: it caps at 2133 TheFifthAce#4128: except on oc JustinXenyx#8854: Nah, i've seen 2400mhz ram stock ddr3 DarknessFalls229#2286: dont really have any use with the LP 750 and the ram that was in there is nice corsair ram JustinXenyx#8854: LP 750? Dude, those are still like 40-50€ own their own TheFifthAce#4128: ^ DarknessFalls229#2286: hmmm DarknessFalls229#2286: so sell it without the 750 then? JustinXenyx#8854: Yup DarknessFalls229#2286: and how about the ram? id like to keep the 8gb, but i can increase the 4gb to 6gb JustinXenyx#8854: I'd sell it with dual channel ram, because maximum performance etc
DarknessFalls229#2286: so just 4GB is fine? JustinXenyx#8854: If its dual channel, yes DarknessFalls229#2286: alright cool Jeffrey#9213: I just BSOD, anything look bad here? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571034681194184724/unknown.png Jeffrey#9213: I think that Serial ATA and Audio Driver look a bit wack Jeffrey#9213: @Tech Helper JustinXenyx#8854: The thing that looks wack to me is that in almost every error source your graphics card is mentioned Jeffrey#9213: I just assumed that was sharing Jeffrey#9213: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571036689376739338/unknown.png Jeffrey#9213: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571036859359035404/unknown.png Alcyone#2233: irqs can be shared. you might be able to switch it in bios or device manager properties if you think it is an issue.

Alcyone#2233: if you are overclocking ram or running a high speed xmp kit it may benefit to set soc manually to 1.1v-1.15v Alcyone#2233: otherwise it is fine on auto. Jam#0384: it gets stuck at Setup is starting windows on all drives Jam#0384: IDE, Sata, ones that literally ran WinXP Jam#0384: etc Jam#0384: and i do really need to test this 9700 pro Lady Mipha#0611: have you tried different ports

Lady Mipha#0611: damm Jam#0384: ugh issues Jam#0384: imma try to just install xp anyways Jam#0384: because why not Lady Mipha#0611: could be that the bios is in sata mode Jam#0384: it isnt Jam#0384: i give up on this :( Lady Mipha#0611: while you were in the bios did you see the hard drives Lady Mipha#0611: or cd drives Jam#0384: yes everything has been detected Jam#0384: even the sata drives Lady Mipha#0611: yeah that might mean the board has something to do with it Jam#0384: At least I can repair my Win98SE by the looks of things Jam#0384: I'll grab a fresh IDE hard drive cheap online and try WinXP with that Lady Mipha#0611: and while you are at it don't forget to grab a cpu for that motherboard
Jam#0384: Soon yes Jam#0384: Im thinking a 4400+ Jam#0384: High end but not crazy expensive Jam#0384: the 4800+ and FX are collectors items Jam#0384: for the most part Jam#0384: I'd love to have one but at the moment I'm not forking over more than $20~ for a processor of that calibre TheFifthAce#4128: @Jam if youre usa I can send a 4400+ Jam#0384: oo TheFifthAce#4128: and a 3200+ TheFifthAce#4128: not xp TheFifthAce#4128: 64 Jam#0384: yes thats what i need Jam#0384: awesome i will buy it with your X800 lol TheFifthAce#4128: 754 not 939 TheFifthAce#4128: btw

SuSSudio#2688: https://wccftech.com/biostar-x570-racing-pcie-gen-4-motherboard-amd-ryzen-3000-cpus/ thatubuntuguy#5914: Let’s go biostar! thatubuntuguy#5914: Make me proud Rio#1000: its biostar amd, dont get your hopes up GoldenSky#4649: Looks like GameCube emulation is now tolerable on the Switch
GoldenSky#4649: 23 - 30 FPS in The Wind Waker thatubuntuguy#5914: wohhh Lady Mipha#0611: wooohh Exomilav#5434: woooohhhh JustinXenyx#8854: @GoldenSky I wonder how good GameCube emulation would be, if Nintendo would take their own shot at it JustinXenyx#8854: I mean, Dolphin runs fine on the Tegra X1 by itself, now imagine what Nintendo could do GoldenSky#4649: I'd say perfect GoldenSky#4649: We already have an official emulator, keep that in mind GoldenSky#4649: Specifically designed for the X1 GoldenSky#4649: In Japan they had Mario Galaxy on the Shield thatubuntuguy#5914: This is going to be sick thatubuntuguy#5914: Thinking of buying a switch just for Ubuntu TheFifthAce#4128: why GoldenSky#4649: ^ TheFifthAce#4128: switch has gay specs
thatubuntuguy#5914: Dual boot TheFifthAce#4128: literally lower power than ps3 thatubuntuguy#5914: Switch os and Ubuntu JustinXenyx#8854: I don't think the switch is capable of that GoldenSky#4649: Ubuntu isn't really worth it on the Switch thatubuntuguy#5914: It is JustinXenyx#8854: @TheFifthAce Keep in mind its a hybrid console TheFifthAce#4128: Well yeah GoldenSky#4649: It doesn't perform great due to the lack of proper drivers thatubuntuguy#5914: For a portable console it’s awesome GoldenSky#4649: For sure TheFifthAce#4128: definitely, but dual booting is lame JustinXenyx#8854: If you want portable Ubuntu, get a Windows tablet for cheap and use that @thatubuntuguy GoldenSky#4649: Especially for the price GoldenSky#4649: Just not a Cherry Trail tablet
Jam#0384: JFK Memorial when MythologicalZ#3752: Wrong channel JustinXenyx#8854: If a "Switch Pro/Plus" is released, what specs would it have? My first guess would be a new chip with Pascal graphics JustinXenyx#8854: Like, they've got so much out of a 256 core maxwell gpu, what would Nintendo do with a pascal gpu? GoldenSky#4649: Also, the Switch is more powerful than a PS3 GoldenSky#4649: I'd like to see the PS3 struggle even attempting to run DOOM 2016 at the exact same quality the Switch has JustinXenyx#8854: And to think, that even Wolfenstein and DOOM run on a downclocked Tegra X1 on a playable is impressive JustinXenyx#8854: A Switch with a Pascal GPU could probably even match the PS4 in terms of graphics horse power TheFifthAce#4128: Yea TheFifthAce#4128: Imagine a switch with an 8ghz duron TheFifthAce#4128: :Kappa1: GoldenSky#4649: Ehhh, not in portable mode, it'd destroy the battery JustinXenyx#8854: Sure, not in portable, but in docked mode definitely GoldenSky#4649: Then that would be horny thatubuntuguy#5914: what
thatubuntuguy#5914: the fuck LaeMat#0420: would a Dell Inspiron 5558 (i5-4210U not dedicated) be able to handle Dolphin/PCSX2 emulation? LaeMat#0420: my Inspiron isn’t running well with it Jamie.Cullen#8363: What do you mean? Jamie.Cullen#8363: It should handle emulation OK thatubuntuguy#5914: Well my 3317u runs galaxy ok thatubuntuguy#5914: It drops a fair bit in really heavy bits but it’s more than playable JustinXenyx#8854: My Acer Aspire MM15 (I3 5005U with HD5500) runs Super Mario Sunshine on Dolphin mediocrely thatubuntuguy#5914: So you’d be fine with your has well LaeMat#0420: it runs Wii Sports so bad JustinXenyx#8854: Again, its game dependant on what you wanna run JustinXenyx#8854: some games are easier emulated than others LaeMat#0420: like 10-25 FPS LaeMat#0420: and low speed thatubuntuguy#5914: What is the igpu I forgot
LaeMat#0420: intel HD 4400 thatubuntuguy#5914: It should be fine then thatubuntuguy#5914: By 3317u runs it fine LaeMat#0420: it runs so facking slow thatubuntuguy#5914: Wait what resolution are you on LaeMat#0420: 1920x1080 thatubuntuguy#5914: No no no turn that down JustinXenyx#8854: whats the render resolution? LaeMat#0420: oh thatubuntuguy#5914: It can’t cope with 1080p render red thatubuntuguy#5914: Oh wait I meant render res oof TheFifthAce#4128: dont do 1080p render lmaooo TheFifthAce#4128: keep it native thatubuntuguy#5914: @LaeMat what res is the game rendering at TheFifthAce#4128: keep it native to dolphin*
thatubuntuguy#5914: Leave it at native/480p thatubuntuguy#5914: Was wii in 480p? thatubuntuguy#5914: Yeah it was LaeMat#0420: where do I check? thatubuntuguy#5914: Dolphin setttings LaeMat#0420: Wii was in 480i or 480P LaeMat#0420: where in there? thatubuntuguy#5914: I forgot it’s been a while LaeMat#0420: internal resolution? thatubuntuguy#5914: Look for video options JustinXenyx#8854: wait a minute, let me check thatubuntuguy#5914: Sounds right JustinXenyx#8854: there should be a option named "graphics" LaeMat#0420: 640x528 JustinXenyx#8854: Ok, thats native res
JustinXenyx#8854: Anything else active? LaeMat#0420: wdym? LaeMat#0420: my AV is on JustinXenyx#8854: Is Anti-Aliasing turned on or some shit? JustinXenyx#8854: cause that kills performance JustinXenyx#8854: Also, what Backend is being used? I find OpenGL to be more efficient than DirectX when it comes to Dolphin LaeMat#0420: it’s off LaeMat#0420: OpenGL and both DirectX 11 and 12 are bad LaeMat#0420: it’s bad LaeMat#0420: the $55 USD AMD Athlon 200GE runs better JustinXenyx#8854: that also has a much better iGPU JustinXenyx#8854: the 200GE's iGPU is comparable to a GTS450 JustinXenyx#8854: the HD4400 is not even half that performance Jamie.Cullen#8363: Just lower the settings? LaeMat#0420: I did
LaeMat#0420: I was thinking of replacing the motherboard with a 5559 i7 motherboard LaeMat#0420: would that work? LaeMat#0420: does the motherboard have a Intel HD 520? JustinXenyx#8854: what i7? LaeMat#0420: the 6500u or something JustinXenyx#8854: nah, thats bs JustinXenyx#8854: it won't fit into your haswell system JustinXenyx#8854: different mobo n shit i'd assume LaeMat#0420: what haswell? LaeMat#0420: they’re the same motherboard LaeMat#0420: the same case LaeMat#0420: same size JustinXenyx#8854: your 4210u is a haswell chip, a 6500u is skylake LaeMat#0420: no take out the old mono LaeMat#0420: *mobo
LaeMat#0420: and put in the 5559 mobo LaeMat#0420: with i7 LaeMat#0420: @JustinXenyx JustinXenyx#8854: I get that, but mobos from different generation laptops can be and are in most cases incompatible @LaeMat LaeMat#0420: it’s the same case dimensions LaeMat#0420: 5558 Signature Edition and 5559 have the same appearance except for mic, screen thickness, weight and internals LaeMat#0420: the thickness of the display LaeMat#0420: and (I think, don’t think so) digital mic or something LaeMat#0420: search up “Dell Inspiron 5558 specs” and 5559 LaeMat#0420: check the dell website and PDF JustinXenyx#8854: case dimensions mean jack shit JustinXenyx#8854: the internal shit is the important stuff for mobo swaps LaeMat#0420: mobos look identical LaeMat#0420: this is 5558 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571465738939007006/image0.jpg LaeMat#0420: this is 5559 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571465815304568917/image0.jpg
LaeMat#0420: so amd Radeon or Intel 520? JustinXenyx#8854: wym "intel 520"? JustinXenyx#8854: and yeah, the mobos are pretty much the same, should be upgradable then LaeMat#0420: Intel HD 520 graphics JustinXenyx#8854: which AMD graphics would be available? LaeMat#0420: Radeon R5 M335 JustinXenyx#8854: take that, it'll perform better than the HD520 LaeMat#0420: ok LaeMat#0420: is it built into the mobo? JustinXenyx#8854: most likely LaeMat#0420: ok JustinXenyx#8854: the top left corner on both of your pics has empty spots that look suspiciously like other mobo versions have a graphics chip and VRAM placed there LaeMat#0420: *ships from Austin, Texas* LaeMat#0420: this is no GPU https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571468620656410627/image0.jpg LaeMat#0420: this is Radeon https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571468783751790632/image0.jpg
JustinXenyx#8854: thats what i mean LaeMat#0420: around $310 CAD LaeMat#0420: 230 USD LaeMat#0420: I’ll save the tab LaeMat#0420: And an SSD too Evvy#0001: oof Evvy#0001: think it's worth upgrading an old first-gen i5 to something better, or just selling the system as-is? Evvy#0001: specifically the i5-660 🤢 JustinXenyx#8854: @Evvy Xeons are omega cheap now and first gen dual core i5 systems are being valued to shit Evvy#0001: ye but the best xeon for it is like 4 cores and 8 threads and still $90 on ebay Evvy#0001: do the others have HT? JustinXenyx#8854: x3430 doesn't, everything X3440 and up has as far as i remember Rio#1000: yep Rio#1000: x3440 is pennies and 4c8t Rio#1000: the x3480 is $$$$ because its rare and near perfect silicon
Deleted User#0000: so basically my screen has been flickering in kubuntu and only kubuntu so I figured that the graphics drivers might be the problem. I know this sounds a bit noobish but I havent been using linux for awhile, so could anyone tell me how to reinstall drivers Rio#1000: on ubuntu you just type drivers into the start menu Evvy#0001: o okay mi3night#2562: @Tech Helper how much voltage should I increase on my rx580 8gb for 1550mhz Alcyone#2233: as much as it needs, you cant set anything unsafe on the default bios. Max power limit, increase slider, add 25mv if it artifacts or crashes Evvy#0001: oh dang, my board only has pci gen 2 slots Evvy#0001: would that gimp something like a 970 or below? Alcyone#2233: no. i ran firestrike on a sandy and a coffee lake with 1070. graphics score was margin of error Evvy#0001: hot Evvy#0001: this spec sheet for the memory is confusing, and also probably my last question Evvy#0001: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571566825528098816/unknown.png Evvy#0001: does this mean i have to fill all 4 RAM slots with 4GB dimms, or does it mean 4GB per side, so 8GB can fit on one stick and I can get that sick dual-channel junk goin'? TheFifthAce#4128: it means 16gb total Evvy#0001: well, ye TheFifthAce#4128: 4x4 is dual channel too
Evvy#0001: oh, i've heard some mixed up things then Evvy#0001: sweet Alcyone#2233: it can only use 2gb per rank so if its 4gb dimms they need to be dual sided Evvy#0001: gotcha boss Evvy#0001: so if there was a ram stick with 4 sides, it might be able to do 8 GB per stick Evvy#0001: :Thonking: Alcyone#2233: heh Evvy#0001: ty for the help my dudes Evvy#0001: also wow, these xeons are almost the same price as a q6600 c': JustinXenyx#8854: @mi3night 1550Mhz is pretty unlikely with a average card afaik, try something lower first and then try to go higher MythologicalZ#3752: 1420 or so is more realistic for most cards Jamie.Cullen#8363: is 20 euro for a Fractal R4 good? MythologicalZ#3752: Fairly old case that MythologicalZ#3752: 20 sounds fine assuming decent condition Jamie.Cullen#8363: mmm

Jamie.Cullen#8363: @JustinXenyx what do you think if I get some of these for €60 each?

Tinybox#9112: after fixes..and driver updates TheFifthAce#4128: hm Tinybox#9112: yea Tinybox#9112: it does MythologicalZ#3752: Still runs rather hot TheFifthAce#4128: dont get a patriot burst
TheFifthAce#4128: phison s11 iirc MythologicalZ#3752: It is TheFifthAce#4128: yeah dont get that shit MythologicalZ#3752: So yeah avoid Tinybox#9112: ah ok @TheFifthAce Tinybox#9112: patriot burst bad? TheFifthAce#4128: get an l5 lite 3d or su800 or bx500 TheFifthAce#4128: yeah the phison s11 controller is slow and has high failure rates TheFifthAce#4128: there's a reason they sell for so cheap lmao TheFifthAce#4128: "oh theres the ssd that looks fine for cheaper than this other SSD, I bet there's no compromises there!" JustinXenyx#8854: PSU is shit TheFifthAce#4128: is what I imagine what people think when they pick an a400 JustinXenyx#8854: case is mediocre TheFifthAce#4128: oh yeah that psu if :oof: Tinybox#9112: guy likes the case.
Tinybox#9112: soo like meh. Tinybox#9112: PSU is no no too? TheFifthAce#4128: get a tx550m or something JustinXenyx#8854: PSU is absolute no go TheFifthAce#4128: or a focus gold 650 JustinXenyx#8854: I'd recommend a different case, that one has basically no air flow @Tinybox MythologicalZ#3752: Motherboard doesn't look particularly great either Tinybox#9112: Is the Silverstone strider essentiall any good? @JustinXenyx Ill look for a diff case the guy likes JustinXenyx#8854: Also, a former member had his Patriot Burst fail and the warranty service was straight ass TheFifthAce#4128: lads rise of the tomb raider wont let me change the refresh rate TheFifthAce#4128: :sadman: TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/571776882526126080/unknown.png JustinXenyx#8854: Like, Patriot wanted him to pay for shipping TheFifthAce#4128: also do I use dx12 on a 1060
JustinXenyx#8854: DX12 is pretty meh on Nvidia cards TheFifthAce#4128: better on the 580 iirc JustinXenyx#8854: DX11 can even perform better to a mild degree TheFifthAce#4128: so stick with dx11?

JustinXenyx#8854: @Tinybox Why would you go so cheap with the power supply and then get a Radeon 7? TheFifthAce#4128: ^ Tinybox#9112: asked him for a bit more of a budget Tinybox#9112: so Ill get a better PSU Tinybox#9112: change out the SSD JustinXenyx#8854: Honestly, i'd dump the Radeon 7 TheFifthAce#4128: used 1080 ti time TheFifthAce#4128: justin should I change any of those settings JustinXenyx#8854: They look fine for the 1060
