TheFifthAce#4128: I absolutely love that laptop Lemolea#4442: Huh, how much did you pay for it, could i ask? TheFifthAce#4128: touchscreen is accurate and responsive, it's very fast, decent cooling and fast graphics, screen is a tiny bit dim but I only use it indoors TheFifthAce#4128: it was $621 usd after taxes Lemolea#4442: That's good to hear! What kinda workloads do you put it through? I think mine will mostly be cpu intensive if it does well for that Lemolea#4442: Ah, it'll be $750 dollars for me TheFifthAce#4128: Web browsing, photoshop, light gaming (gmod, besiege, kerbal space program, etc) Lumaterian#3557: if you want to know cpu performance, the 4500U is basically an underclocked R5 3500 TheFifthAce#4128: desktop* Lumaterian#3557: so check reviews of 3500/3500X and it should be similar Lumaterian#3557: should™️ TheFifthAce#4128: I benchmarked mine I think Lumaterian#3557: and yeah desktop, is there a mobile 3500? Lumaterian#3557: if so it suuucks TheFifthAce#4128: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/552604205114982400/725151454255382648/unknown.png
TheFifthAce#4128: @Lumaterian 3500u TheFifthAce#4128: but yeah TheFifthAce#4128: 4500u does 2222 multi and 421 single TheFifthAce#4128: and thats while being power throttled TheFifthAce#4128: battery saver mode Lumaterian#3557: multicore perf is roughly equivalent to 3500X at 3.3 there TheFifthAce#4128: all core clocks to 3.3-3.4 TheFifthAce#4128: yeah Lumaterian#3557: or a 4.8GHz 4790K TheFifthAce#4128: single core was like 3.6-3.7 Lumaterian#3557: so we've come a long way TheFifthAce#4128: oh definitely TheFifthAce#4128: and it does that while still getting 4-5 hours battery under load Lumaterian#3557: 4.1GHz i7 3960X Lumaterian#3557: which is kinda nutty to think about
TheFifthAce#4128: yeah Lumaterian#3557: or a hypothetical 7900X underclocked to about 1.4GHz TheFifthAce#4128: wat Lumaterian#3557: alternatively, to compare AMD to AMD Lumaterian#3557: an FX 9590 at about 7GHz TheFifthAce#4128: lo TheFifthAce#4128: luma hows the 5600 xt Lumaterian#3557: it's a gpu™️ Lumaterian#3557: I like it TheFifthAce#4128: any driver quirks yet Lumaterian#3557: considering it cost me about 25$ Lumaterian#3557: nope TheFifthAce#4128: nice Lemolea#4442: uh... so you're getting into stuff i don't really understand now lol, is it a good deal for $750 or should i look around a bit more? TheFifthAce#4128: $750 its a great laptop
Lumaterian#3557: sorry I just love throwing numbers around TheFifthAce#4128: with import taxes most laptops youre going to find are going to be expensive TheFifthAce#4128: like an equivalent intel 2 in 1, as far as I can see, costs 900 pounds and has half the ram Lemolea#4442: alright, i showed my bf the benchmarks and he seemed impressed anyways, thanks for the help. glad to get the opinion of someone who actually owns one 🙂 Lemolea#4442: yeah, looking at amd coz intel is always way more expensive TheFifthAce#4128: wait not even equal, it's the 4 core i5 model, thin n light 2 in 1s with 6 cores on intels side are insane TheFifthAce#4128: if you can even find them in stock lo TheFifthAce#4128: @Lemolea It does depend what youre looking for TheFifthAce#4128: if you're looking for great power and great functionality thats easy to move around, the flex 5 is great TheFifthAce#4128: if you want the ultimate best, you *can* get something with a bit more grunt, but that weighs twice as much, has nowhere near as much battery life, and probably still costs just as much TheFifthAce#4128: and that "best" is only faster by 5-10% TheFifthAce#4128: realistically, unless you're looking for a gaming laptop with some GPU power in it, the flex 5 is pretty much best in class until dell starts lowering the prices of their AMD 2 in 1s TheFifthAce#4128: Like if you can get one of these for a similar price, definitely go for this instead, but it costs $100 more in the USA so I imagine its a bunch more in the UK https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-laptops/inspiron-14-7000-2-in-1/spd/inspiron-14-7405-2-in-1-laptop Lemolea#4442: oh god, definitely looking for a thin n light, my last laptop was like a huge 5lb desktop-socketed dell, really fucked up my back/shoulder carrying it every day TheFifthAce#4128: oh yueah
TheFifthAce#4128: flex 5 is super light TheFifthAce#4128: I love it TheFifthAce#4128: I have joint issues so I needed a super light laptop TheFifthAce#4128: flex 5 will work great for you TheFifthAce#4128: or as mentioned, if you can find the inspiron for a decent price, definitely a better machine Lemolea#4442: ^ that ones listed as only 8 gigs, wouldn't that only leave 6 useable? TheFifthAce#4128: its upgradable TheFifthAce#4128: you just throw in another 8gb stick for like $20 TheFifthAce#4128: flex 5 is soldered ram Lemolea#4442: ah, ok TheFifthAce#4128: dell has : Better screen, better build quality, upgradable ram, but its like $100 more expensive TheFifthAce#4128: I personally went with the flex 5 just because it was a lot cheaper Lemolea#4442: yeah, think i'll go with the flex 5, seems easier to get shipped over here too Lemolea#4442: thanks man Lemolea#4442: ugh, how often do most people have to buy a new laptop? I always wait for them to die first but it always happens at the most inconvenient of times 😅
Lumaterian#3557: I haven't bought a 'new' laptop since 2014 Lumaterian#3557: since I just use my desktop for everything Lumaterian#3557: my current laptop is an ivy bridge dual-core meme machine that I got for free Lemolea#4442: haha, fair enough. I love my desktop so much, but (under normal circumstances) I'm rarely home for long periods of time Lemolea#4442: seem to need a new laptop every 2 years annoyingly Bertie Kemp#1114: Can anyone recommend a good ATX case with good airflow for around £50 - £75? mi3night#2562: @Bertie Kemp meshify mi3night#2562: @Lemolea if u game a lot I suggest u to get a external gpu dock for ur gpu that way you can swap your gpu in ur desktop and take it anywhere with you and you can game on the go without using your laptop’s igpu BigPierogi#3368: the focus g is a good case mi3night#2562: That could be a option too BigPierogi#3368: lots of airflow mi3night#2562: But it looks ugly imo mi3night#2562: Straight out of 2015 BigPierogi#3368: looks fine to me mi3night#2562: It’s up to him
mi3night#2562: Tbh imo gaming laptops are dumb because I’d rather have a ultra light laptop that’s built really sturdy and is reliable. If I wanna game a external gpu enclosure is like $300 which is worth it IMO D.D.M#8226: Hey guys so i am going to buy a laptop because of school and i was thinking would a usb 3 to pcie card work D.D.M#8226: Just a question mi3night#2562: @D.D.M thunderbolt? mi3night#2562: also what laptop ur getting mi3night#2562: most modern laptops have thunderbolt unless u get amd D.D.M#8226: No just usb 3 type a D.D.M#8226: I dont know the exact laptop but it was a lenovo with a 10th gen i7 and mx330 gpu mi3night#2562: why tho D.D.M#8226: Just curious mi3night#2562: lenovo laptops are meh D.D.M#8226: It caught my eyr mi3night#2562: which one D.D.M#8226: Eyes? mi3night#2562: no the laptop

mi3night#2562: Ask abstract PanasonicBlueray#8325: Lads, I have a kind of important question PanasonicBlueray#8325: Anyone lives in or knows a country where its illegal to open up/repair/modify your electronics? PanasonicBlueray#8325: Hope this counts here(?) PanasonicBlueray#8325: Channel wise Muse#0557: Im pretty sure they are illegal in a lot of countries and have been for a while of course there are greedy exceptions PanasonicBlueray#8325: Im really curious cuz my country has just passed a law law that makes even just changing the OS in your pc illegal PanasonicBlueray#8325: But im not too sure how its going to actually work, goverment hasnt said anything really the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: @MythologicalZ thoughts on thermaltake aios ? these to be specific https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728186871045423144/IMG-20200702-WA0000.jpg the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: i can pretty much conclude from what u said here but i think we were talking custom loop so maybe aios are a different story? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728187144090157128/Screenshot_20200702-115403.png MythologicalZ#3752: well for starters, they are 120mm memes so not worth touching at all MythologicalZ#3752: and secondly they are both just rebranded asetek MythologicalZ#3752: https://www.asetek.com/gamingenthusiasts/diy-partners/thermaltake MythologicalZ#3752: except the white one is much older, think they went retail in 2013 the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: well yeah 120mm memes but didnt know they were rebranded asteks tho , i wouldnt go for the 2013 one i dont know if they still make them or if its older stock but if its older stock its defo corroded by now
but like astek does make decent stuff but lets say the 240mm rgb one or 360 it should be good right? @MythologicalZ MythologicalZ#3752: yeah I guess MythologicalZ#3752: shouldnt be buying an aio though :Peter: the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: tru dat the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: pointless the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: a good air cooler would be a better buy MythologicalZ#3752: yeah more reliable for a gaming rig the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: aight thanks wiryfuture🦀#1706: what's happening here? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728244769549058056/unknown.png BigPierogi#3368: scary stuff D.D.M#8226: It looks like a minecraft server error or crash BigPierogi#3368: it literally says its not a crash at the bottom D.D.M#8226: Yeah i see wiryfuture🦀#1706: weird https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728251612170027078/unknown.png

DarknessFalls229#2286: dont think it will the GPU will turn on with only one out of two 8pins installed, but if you bridge the sense connectors it should work DarknessFalls229#2286: @TheFifthAce TheFifthAce#4128: @DarknessFalls229 ended up buying a 6 pin to dual 8 pin lo TheFifthAce#4128: just need to make sure it displays DarknessFalls229#2286: alright EmperorOfFinland#9257: its not a good idea to do so EmperorOfFinland#9257: it would about work EmperorOfFinland#9257: but its not recommended at all. DarknessFalls229#2286: the adapter or shorting the sense pins? DarknessFalls229#2286: cause im pretty sure you can pull like 250 watt out of a single 8 pin GPU cable TheFifthAce#4128: @EmperorOfFinland its a 1070 ti lol TheFifthAce#4128: itll be fine TheFifthAce#4128: 1070 ti only draws 180w DarknessFalls229#2286: and if you have a decent PSU you can go outside of spec EmperorOfFinland#9257: i mean you better hope your rail can do that
EmperorOfFinland#9257: thats why i dont recommend you doing that TheFifthAce#4128: like I said, its not to run lol TheFifthAce#4128: just to make sure it displays EmperorOfFinland#9257: unless you know the PSU is not going to go full china PSU EmperorOfFinland#9257: and literally melt infront of you TheFifthAce#4128: lo DarknessFalls229#2286: Also, not all PSUs have 1 rail per pack of cables DarknessFalls229#2286: my PSU has a single rail running lik 64A DarknessFalls229#2286: or it was 56 Deleted User#0000: is there the opposite of this? like the p3 connection being the opposite of the one shown https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728376892008300624/018-6095_normal.png Muse#0557: I cant get those adapters to work at all BigPierogi#3368: i got one to sorta work BigPierogi#3368: it gave video but no audio
Deleted User#0000: my xbox 360 had one of those Deleted User#0000: it worked, the composite video looks like crap on that console so it's much better to use the hdmi port instead, but it got the job done Alcyone#2233: @Deleted User you dont need a different cable, just plug the cables into miosmatched colors if the stack isnt right Deleted User#0000: i dont think u got it Alcyone#2233: I have one for a game gear tv tuner, video is the left audio channel Deleted User#0000: i mean like Deleted User#0000: this one being a connector (input) while still outputing https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728381272858296340/unknown.png Alcyone#2233: it just makes a connection on pins inside the jack, whatever they are assigned to on the device will be on the corresponding connector mi3night#2562: Can u guys help me to find a lcd for my MSI ge72 2qd Foxious#1859: There are loads in Ebay Foxious#1859: around the 100 euro mark mi3night#2562: @Foxious can you verify that’s a 40 pin https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728484680801976450/image0.jpg mi3night#2562: When I counted I got 40 but I don’t trust myself mi3night#2562: @Alcyone alcyone count mi3night#2562: Is it 40 or 30
Alcyone#2233: thats a normal 40 pin Alcyone#2233: if its laptop ide, they are 44 because the power is through the cable as well mi3night#2562: https://www.ebay.com/itm/202448241010 mi3night#2562: @Alcyone I read a article and it told me to buy this model Alcyone#2233: i dont really know much about laptops. 16:10 120hz seems nice though mi3night#2562: Oh shit mi3night#2562: @Alcyone the lcd currently on my laptop is 1920x1080 mi3night#2562: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728491080630403132/image0.png mi3night#2562: Fuck me mi3night#2562: They guy on eBay mislabeled it Foxious#1859: @mi3night Why dont you just use an external monitor? or do you use your laptop on the go?

Andie Daysinton#6666: i was thinking Andie Daysinton#6666: of if you could have a couple of boards with a simple SSD and CPU to Give their CPU Power to help your main rig when you do video editing EmperorOfFinland#9257: So i have been thinking about getting a good cooler for socket 734 but im not sure are any of the modern cpu coolers compatible with that. EmperorOfFinland#9257: So any tips about that? Deleted User#0000: > of if you could have a couple of boards with a simple SSD and CPU to Give their CPU Power to help your main rig when you do video editing @Andie Daysinton It would be hell on earth to develop software for a hardware config like that Deleted User#0000: but now that I think about it, that's basicly what gpu rendering does Andie Daysinton#6666: Theres software for it Deleted User#0000: after all, a gpu is a cpu that's good at parallel tasks Andie Daysinton#6666: I just don't know how to go about it Andie Daysinton#6666: and Most Video Editing is CPU Heavy not GPU Deleted User#0000: yeah, but you can chose to render with the gpu pal, that's what intel's quick sync does Deleted User#0000: it depends of the codec you use to render videos Andie Daysinton#6666: or what codecs is available Andie Daysinton#6666: i do MP4 FullHD
Andie Daysinton#6666: but the new camera i am getting is doing MOV Files Deleted User#0000: search on youtube how to activate gpu rendering on your specific video editing software, beware that gpu rendering usually lowers the video quality of your videos a little bit, but it's often not noticeable due to youtube's video compression. Andie Daysinton#6666: i don't do youtube Deleted User#0000: well, that depends of your situation then, is the absolute best video quality important for you? Andie Daysinton#6666: Quality in video and Sound is good but my AM3+ build suffered some bad accident Deleted User#0000: what happened? Andie Daysinton#6666: long story short Andie Daysinton#6666: i was cleaning it and my cpu came off with socket and all Deleted User#0000: oofff Deleted User#0000: did you kill it? Andie Daysinton#6666: no Andie Daysinton#6666: Well i killed the Board Andie Daysinton#6666: and then threw the Cpu Andie Daysinton#6666: So it died from gravity Force Trauma Deleted User#0000: O.o
mi3night#2562: @Alcyone ok so everytime i look up the MSI GE72 2QD-405US screen it's always 30 pin but when i counted the pin on my motherboard it has 40 pins. So whats wrong here? Alcyone#2233: im not sure, maybe some revision Alcyone#2233: can you remove the panel or the rear cover to it and get a model number on the screen itself? mi3night#2562: @Alcyone I ordered a panel already so I hope It works. Also I was thinking that the cable of edp is 40 pin from mobo but 30 pin to the screen mi3night#2562: Could it be that Alcyone#2233: could be mi3night#2562: @Alcyone edp wise, is there any compatible issues across the platform ? mi3night#2562: The panel I ordered fits on every modern ge72 laptop but I’m wondering if the cable fits in there would it work fine mi3night#2562: It’s claiming to work on every ge72 but I’m just worried mi3night#2562: Ok I’m thinking too much mi3night#2562: :gourmet: Alcyone#2233: if you got it on ebay, return should be ez if its not right EmperorOfFinland#9257: So i take it no one knows good AMD socket 754 compatible CPU coolers? EmperorOfFinland#9257: i know there is asetek vapochill but that is not available Alcyone#2233: do you mean socket 754, like old athlons?
EmperorOfFinland#9257: oh yeah i do EmperorOfFinland#9257: my knowledge of the old amd sockets is patchy EmperorOfFinland#9257: i have a D-15 but i think it wont fit that EmperorOfFinland#9257: i have a 754 system with OC board on the post office EmperorOfFinland#9257: i know socket 939 is am2-am3 compatible Alcyone#2233: yeah anything with amd AMx clip mounts will work Alcyone#2233: I use a cheap deepcool s40 on my old athlons, its more than enough Alcyone#2233: any 120mm fan tower cooler will be good enough for 754 EmperorOfFinland#9257: so youre saying a Noctua D-15 should mount on it= EmperorOfFinland#9257: as i will be using that Alcyone#2233: i think that uses a screw mount so no Alcyone#2233: it mitght if the hole spacing for the backplate is the same Alcyone#2233: but that is also way overkill for low power 1c1t EmperorOfFinland#9257: although i have a wraith spire cooler too EmperorOfFinland#9257: well
EmperorOfFinland#9257: i want to push max OC on it. Alcyone#2233: you can on just about any cooler Alcyone#2233: i run 1.75v with the deepcool and it never gets hot EmperorOfFinland#9257: and it wont break itself with thouse volts? Lumaterian#3557: shit's ancient Lumaterian#3557: 1.75v is cake Lumaterian#3557: sandy bridge can take 1.5v no problems Lumaterian#3557: 754 athlons are like... 130nm? EmperorOfFinland#9257: lowpower? EmperorOfFinland#9257: 87W TDP is not small EmperorOfFinland#9257: especially on the standards of that day Muse#0557: 87 is perfectly fine my guy Alcyone#2233: tdp is irrelevant for the most part, 754 will pull low amperage with any ambient cooling. I am using "89w" socket 940 athlon fx with a 120mm cooler and temps are fine even in stress tests Lumaterian#3557: tdp is a meme on every cpu tbh Lady Mipha#0611: definitely
Lady Mipha#0611: intel is the worse one Foxious#1859: Since this is also an tech talk chat Foxious#1859: can you gentlemen tell your toughts on something?

Foxious#1859: and the tradeoff? you have to give up USB 3 on the case and the side window. The older one wins out imo mi3night#2562: People expect my cable management to be perfect when I got a sata raid card FuckinReece#0021: friend told me intel stock coolers are easier to use than amds FuckinReece#0021: your guys opinions
Foxious#1859: well Foxious#1859: is the AMD still using the antique method of bending a piece of metal over a clip? Foxious#1859: the same used for example in pentium 3 heatsinks? Foxious#1859: because they are about as easy as intel stock Foxious#1859: and usually faster Foxious#1859: @FuckinReece Do they use the "bend a piece of metal over a latch"? FuckinReece#0021: yep Foxious#1859: well then, it is quite easy if the piece of metal decides not to act like an ass Foxious#1859: my socket 370 celeron stock heatsink, im looking at you Critical#7335: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728937308862021642/unknown.png Critical#7335: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/728937365724201010/unknown.png Critical#7335: thats the thing rriot#6100: ah modified office pc rriot#6100: still beyond me why he gave it away Critical#7335: dudes fuckin weird man

mi3night#2562: If u spend €200 on a 360mm aio then yeah it’s gonna be slightly better mi3night#2562: But at that point why not spend a little more and u get custom loop Andie Daysinton#6666: Really mi3night#2562: I mean yeah you can get a aio but expect to pay like $150 for a good one Andie Daysinton#6666: well mi3night#2562: Some people don’t mind cuz it looks good mi3night#2562: Also aio are easier to install that air coolers mi3night#2562: It’s straight forward not some stupid mounting mechanism Andie Daysinton#6666: Custom loop i can't do in my tower mi3night#2562: It’s possible but very hard cuz matx Deleted User#0000: also Scythe makes good air coolers. mi3night#2562: I have a scythe mugen 4 rn for $30 mi3night#2562: My main complaint with it is that the mounting mechanism is stupid mi3night#2562: Also just like 90% of air coolers.....ram clearance Deleted User#0000: i was on the fence between scythe and noctua. i have just enough space for the noctua
mi3night#2562: I had $30 lol mi3night#2562: Can’t get a noctua for $30 EmperorOfFinland#9257: AIO wont matter unless you pick a 280 or 360 one with good power fans. that would outperform a D-15 EmperorOfFinland#9257: but be prepared to pay 50-120€ more for it. mi3night#2562: No some 240 still beats nhd15 mi3night#2562: But it’s like $150 mi3night#2562: Oh yeah also.

Andie Daysinton#6666: after 3 years you say mi3night#2562: A air cooler would last u like idk 15 years BigPierogi#3368: well BigPierogi#3368: that dfepends BigPierogi#3368: on the fan mi3night#2562: Until the socket changes mi3night#2562: Then yeah EmperorOfFinland#9257: you can always replace a fan on aircooler though so it would work. with small repairs. AIO is broken and really hard to fix. Andie Daysinton#6666: if i blow compressed air every 2 months and keep it clean EmperorOfFinland#9257: if it does break mi3night#2562: If intel got high and went like. Lga 1169 and a completely different mounting
mi3night#2562: Air coolers are way more durable that’s true too EmperorOfFinland#9257: AIO is just prettymuch a novelty and a statusitem for people not willing to go Openloop. mi3night#2562: I mean mi3night#2562: If ur right in the middle mi3night#2562: For say $180 mi3night#2562: Then yeah get 360mm EmperorOfFinland#9257: as openloop has its own caviats about it EmperorOfFinland#9257: and alot more can go wrong with it. mi3night#2562: For the price of a custom cooler might as well upgrade ur gtx1060 to something better @Andie Daysinton Andie Daysinton#6666: What you mean Andie Daysinton#6666: my 1060 is pretty okay still EmperorOfFinland#9257: well i would still slap a decent cooler on AMD to be honest. EmperorOfFinland#9257: its dependant on getting high boostclocks on fullload EmperorOfFinland#9257: it wont boost high if it overheats. Andie Daysinton#6666: No i just want to keep in the 60's Cs

Hard tube looks more neat and nicer. But soft tube is easier to work with Andie Daysinton#6666: Well would Thermal takes kits be a good startpoint ? mi3night#2562: id say no because it's a better idea to buy all the components separately mi3night#2562: also if u gonna custom loop i suggest u to get a mid atx or full atx case mi3night#2562: mini atx cases are a ass to custom loop in mi3night#2562: @Andie Daysinton
Andie Daysinton#6666: well i am getting 2 of the towers for that Andie Daysinton#6666: I have never bought the components Andie Daysinton#6666: So how do i go about that Andie Daysinton#6666: @mi3night mi3night#2562: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pU2KvawDP10 @Andie Daysinton Andie Daysinton#6666: i have to solder shit Andie Daysinton#6666: Dayum uoʇsodɾ#2412: No. You don't need to solder anything to make an open loop. J2C stated that the raiderator fin stack is solder to the tubes in the raiderator. Most of the work is just leak testing. Soft tube is easer to work with and parts like the CPU and GPU are easer to replace when soft tubing is used. Hard tubing can provide a better flow rate and look better overall.

This dualsocket has 40gb Deleted User#0000: that extra ram should help as well
Deleted User#0000: what's the price for both kits? EmperorOfFinland#9257: X3440 was free EmperorOfFinland#9257: E5-2620 is 85€ EmperorOfFinland#9257: 45 for the system and 40€ for ram Deleted User#0000: uuuu, alright, if the e5-2620 includes a working motherboard, both cpus and the ram I would say it's a great deal EmperorOfFinland#9257: It does EmperorOfFinland#9257: I just tested it Deleted User#0000: is it a branded motherboard though? Deleted User#0000: some socket 2011 boards are chinese, while those work fine for the most part, they're pretty cheap EmperorOfFinland#9257: Dell poweredge r420 EmperorOfFinland#9257: I have r310 as the xeon x3440 system EmperorOfFinland#9257: Both dell Deleted User#0000: I see, It should be a good deal then, a dual e5 system should have at least 3 times more raw performance than the x3440 system on it's own EmperorOfFinland#9257: Yeah and that is good EmperorOfFinland#9257: I can always replace the cpus on it though for faster ones. The cpus barely cost anything
EmperorOfFinland#9257: Id figure better cpus would cost like 10-40€ per piece EmperorOfFinland#9257: Ones that clock higher. Deleted User#0000: unlocked ones can be more expensive, but yes, most of them are priced in that range EmperorOfFinland#9257: Well i cant oc on a server motherboard though 😛 Deleted User#0000: the most expensive part of a build like that is the motherboard EmperorOfFinland#9257: I would pick vetter cpus for more performance or more cores EmperorOfFinland#9257: Old xeons are dirt cheap now Deleted User#0000: Indeed, the main problem is usually the motherboard Deleted User#0000: but since the price of that system is good it wont be a problem for you EmperorOfFinland#9257: Yeah EmperorOfFinland#9257: I got into servers since i got 2x x3440 systems for free EmperorOfFinland#9257: With ram on both of then EmperorOfFinland#9257: + harddrives Deleted User#0000: uuu you're pretty lucky EmperorOfFinland#9257: 1x 4tb and 1x 3.3tb was broken 2x 500gb and 1x4tb was intact
EmperorOfFinland#9257: I took the 4tb to main machine EmperorOfFinland#9257: Also i got some addoncards on them EmperorOfFinland#9257: Like 1gb lan and stuff like that EmperorOfFinland#9257: Lowprofile hd 5450 radeon EmperorOfFinland#9257: This one has hotswappable hdd and hotswappable powersupplies EmperorOfFinland#9257: I think thouse are quite valuable EmperorOfFinland#9257: On the dual socket system wiryfuture🦀#1706: > Dell poweredge r420 @EmperorOfFinland iirc from what cobs once said, I don't think that gen has html5 idrac EmperorOfFinland#9257: And what that means wiryfuture🦀#1706: To use the remote console, you have to use a java client wiryfuture🦀#1706: which isn't too great lol EmperorOfFinland#9257: I wont be remoteing to it i think wiryfuture🦀#1706: it's really useful wiryfuture🦀#1706: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/729709213777002556/unknown.png

kasey unblock jesse#0395: So ill get a good deal mi3night#2562: Yeah I mean 1366 is a pretty obsolete architecture so yeah mi3night#2562: But eh if u think u can use it for more years then go ahead D.D.M#8226: well i would recommend you get an i7 if you can as the i3s or lower end i5s would for more modern tasks DarknessFalls229#2286: mmmm i3s and i5s on 1366, nice D.D.M#8226: oh shoot D.D.M#8226: uhh ignore what i said Deleted User#0000: low clocked 6 core xeons are usually pretty cheap on the 1366 platform Deleted User#0000: if you're looking for a "budget 1366 cpu" that's the closest you can get I guess DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, something like a X5650 is usually pretty good price to performance, especially if its supported and overclockable on your particular mobo DarknessFalls229#2286: but the lack of some modern instruction sets might not let a small amount of new games work wiryfuture🦀#1706: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/729792296194670662/unknown.png wiryfuture🦀#1706: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/729792326284738600/unknown.png mi3night#2562: I think that’s cobs mi3night#2562: 420%

Lumaterian#3557: only if they break Muse#0557: It looks like they will break when bent back up Muse#0557: One if basically at a right angle Ranvie#5623: So, getting new CPU seems to be a better decision? Muse#0557: Give it try first obviously Ranvie#5623: Okay Muse#0557: Take your time Ranvie#5623: Oh, it had gone worse. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/729921673788391454/JPEG_20200707_114744.jpg Ranvie#5623: Nvm Athlon X2 are pretty cheap nowadays
Racey#8574: I usually just lightly slide a card between the pins so it'll even them out Racey#8574: make sure to slide it on the sides where it's not bent directly towards where you're sliding since it'll break them off Ranvie#5623: Thanks Ranvie#5623: I have been using a slot screwdriver for the whole time Ranvie#5623: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/729933912037523467/20200707_123618.jpg Ranvie#5623: Is it technically legal to use laptop Windows OEM keys on another computer?

Foxious#1859: That is very price dependent Foxious#1859: like there are decent panels for 150 euros and there are good panels for 300 Aspire#9354: guys, a friend of mine sent me his pc because the monitor wasnt displaying anything, after i found out it was the motherboard, I asked him to pay for the motherboard and told him if he ever wanna upgrade his pc since its running a a4 5300 apu, 2gb's ddr3 and a traditional drive with windows 7 Aspire#9354: he accepted to upgrade it aswell but he can only choose one Aspire#9354: either the ssd(which ill put win10) or add another 2 or 4GB's of ram
Aspire#9354: which is better I need help deciding Muse#0557: Dont replace a tragic motherboard Aspire#9354: why? Muse#0557: I5 2400, h61 and 6gb of ddr3 shouldn't be too much Aspire#9354: ?? Muse#0557: An a4 5300 is extremely weak and the socket has no good cpus Muse#0557: Its a waste of money Aspire#9354: he has little money @Muse Muse#0557: Ik i kept that in mind with my recommendation Aspire#9354: he could only afford getting ram or ssd and motherboard Aspire#9354: but where to choose, ram or ssd Muse#0557: He cant save up £50 or so? Aspire#9354: i think not Muse#0557: A replace board and ssd would cost about 50 Muse#0557: So thats not adding up
Aspire#9354: oh Aspire#9354: oh wait Aspire#9354: he can but he cannot upgrade the cpu @Muse Muse#0557: Youre not making sense Aspire#9354: so motherboard and ssd for now? @Muse Muse#0557: ... Muse#0557: How much money do they have Aspire#9354: lemme ask Aspire#9354: @Muse $73 Aspire#9354: i converted it from php Muse#0557: Get a 1155 i5 Muse#0557: 1155 motherboard Muse#0557: And a stick of 4gb ddr3 ram Foxious#1859: What is php? because if i know what region he is from, i can help to find something good SuSSudio#2688: Philippines
Muse#0557: Ima guess its filipino Foxious#1859: hm Foxious#1859: excellent Foxious#1859: cheers mates, problem is that philippino tech scene is quite expensive, aint it? Muse#0557: I still wouldn't buy another board on that garbage platform Foxious#1859: So after tiny bit of digging, i found out that you can buy quite cheap motherboards on the 1150 from china Foxious#1859: but after shipping i imagine he would only have money for a celeron before he gets enough money to upgrade something like I5 4670 Muse#0557: 1155 are probably also cheap Foxious#1859: yes but the processors are way more Foxious#1859: actually no Foxious#1859: sorry i confused Foxious#1859: that is also a decent bet Muse#0557: 1155 is the best bang for buck rn Foxious#1859: the secondary pc i got for 20 euro has a 3570K and it is quite good Foxious#1859: its still way more powerful than something like a pentium g4560, but they cost about the same
Muse#0557: A 2400 is leagues better than the a4 Foxious#1859: interestingly when i search from asia via ebay, 2500 and 3570 are about the same price Aspire#9354: Im back Aspire#9354: @Muse I wouldnt allow going for that Aspire#9354: cuz its expensive Aspire#9354: also my friend is not gonna play games or something Aspire#9354: its just basic task and stuff Aspire#9354: but he will tell me in the future to upgrade his cpu Aspire#9354: for now he just needs a fm2 motherboard and ram or ssd Aspire#9354: i know u guys want me to upgrade his rig to a i5 or something but he or i aint paying a hefty fine here Aspire#9354: also if my english is kinda bad or my sentence is bad, apologize EmperorOfFinland#9257: so i have Dell PowerEdge R420 System but i dont get it to see my harddrives for some reason, i did some googling and for some reason i cannot get them to show. so probably i have to update the bios for the machine. has anyone else has this problem when sas/sata disks are not being readed on the machine? EmperorOfFinland#9257: the internal PERC controller is not being shown for some reason. EmperorOfFinland#9257: i got it fixed EmperorOfFinland#9257: i changed the cable from sas port to sata port

MythologicalZ#3752: yeah but its not a good idea Abe.#3344: Not enough power? MythologicalZ#3752: like it wont go 970 krait but you'll want a fan MythologicalZ#3752: yeah vrm is pretty weak Abe.#3344: Mmmmmmmmm Abe.#3344: I have a good deal lined up, but I can't afford a 3950x and new mobo MythologicalZ#3752: you can run it on the pro4 just fine but its not ideal
MythologicalZ#3752: so better start saving for a better board if possible EmperorOfFinland#9257: you should save up for like 150-200€ board with good vrams EmperorOfFinland#9257: ASUS prime-P X570 is barebones but has good vrams on it. EmperorOfFinland#9257: but there might be better boards out there for the price Abe.#3344: I also need a new GPU to go with it and then more ram, so idk if I can afford all of this lmao Abe.#3344: Ugh, and I need a cooler for it toooooo Abe.#3344: What's the cheapest cooler I could use? EmperorOfFinland#9257: if you dont cool your 3950X you can forget about reaching boostclocks. Abe.#3344: DRP4? EmperorOfFinland#9257: i would not cheap out on the cooler EmperorOfFinland#9257: if youre spending 3950X money already Abe.#3344: I don't actually have said money, I'm working a job I despise just for it Abe.#3344: And a 2080/70 super EmperorOfFinland#9257: well EmperorOfFinland#9257: that is going to cost you 2500-3000€
Abe.#3344: More like £1200 EmperorOfFinland#9257: that includes the entire system btw. EmperorOfFinland#9257: you cant cheap out on motherboard or cooling with that CPU EmperorOfFinland#9257: youre better get good ram with it in the first place. EmperorOfFinland#9257: the GPU is going to be 500-900€ Abe.#3344: Would a dark rock pro 4 work? EmperorOfFinland#9257: depending on the model of choice EmperorOfFinland#9257: id slap NH-D15 to it. EmperorOfFinland#9257: that thing gets hot. EmperorOfFinland#9257: so something comparable Abe.#3344: It's not that expensive of a cooler, so it should be fine Abe.#3344: NH-D15 it is EmperorOfFinland#9257: yeah EmperorOfFinland#9257: since the fact is EmperorOfFinland#9257: its going to run hot
EmperorOfFinland#9257: and dont save too much on motherboard EmperorOfFinland#9257: you need good powerdelivery for that CPU Abe.#3344: Craaaaaaaapppp EmperorOfFinland#9257: its a 750€ CPU what did you realistically expect? Abe.#3344: I guess I'm running a 3950x with a gtx 960 lmao EmperorOfFinland#9257: i mean its a bloody 3950x EmperorOfFinland#9257: and to be honest its better to wait until 3000 series and big navi comes out on october EmperorOfFinland#9257: than buy GPU now EmperorOfFinland#9257: i would not buy a new GPU now Abe.#3344: I'd rather go NVIDIA tho tbh Abe.#3344: Moonlight is a big +, and Optix is going to get full support in blender at some point Abe.#3344: Navi still isn't great for Blender right? Abe.#3344: Something about OpenCL limitations compared to CUDA?

Abe.#3344: I literally can't imagine running a 3950x and a 960 lol EmperorOfFinland#9257: oh my board needs airflow for itself. for 3950X EmperorOfFinland#9257: just get a X570 board. EmperorOfFinland#9257: so you can OC EmperorOfFinland#9257: it will pay out later. Abe.#3344: I don't really care about OCing rn tho tbh EmperorOfFinland#9257: you will eventually do that. Abe.#3344: Blender doesn't benefit that much from clocks, as it does threads Abe.#3344: And I'm on a reaaaaall limited budget Abe.#3344: Like dirt poor lmao EmperorOfFinland#9257: well EmperorOfFinland#9257: maybe you should not build a 3950X system then if you cant afford it EmperorOfFinland#9257: the cpu is out of my priceleague. EmperorOfFinland#9257: i mean saving on specific things is not a wise idea. Abe.#3344: I'm thinking of using this setup for the next foreseeable future tho
Abe.#3344: And if I was gaming, I'd agree Abe.#3344: But this is a productivity system first EmperorOfFinland#9257: well Abe.#3344: And 4K editing and Blendering on a 2200g isn't a fun experience EmperorOfFinland#9257: save up more money EmperorOfFinland#9257: and get a proper system when 4000 series launches EmperorOfFinland#9257: what is like 3-6 months away Abe.#3344: If it launches before Black Friday, I'm in I guess EmperorOfFinland#9257: it might or it might not. EmperorOfFinland#9257: depends really. Abe.#3344: Or if they announce the skews and there's an equally priced high core count beast, I could use that Abe.#3344: But idk if I'll ever find another £550 3950x either Abe.#3344: PC building close to releases is the worst Abe.#3344: Guess I'm making my short film on a 2200g lmao EmperorOfFinland#9257: well
EmperorOfFinland#9257: it will come down EmperorOfFinland#9257: and to be honest a 4000 4900x might be enough for that uoʇsodɾ#2412: This is part of the reason why RAID does not replace a backup. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/730217935876128798/unknown.png Lady Mipha#0611: oh definitely uoʇsodɾ#2412: Some people think otherwise here.

Bertie Kemp#1114: thats the first pic i sent BigPierogi#3368: you also got lghub, box sync and gamemanager service Bertie Kemp#1114: i've noticed it goes up over time and then when i restart it goes back down but slowly starts going up Bertie Kemp#1114: if i dont have anything open etc, what would make it go up constantly Bertie Kemp#1114: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/730519325600907274/unknown.png Bertie Kemp#1114: Thats most of the stuff running, but that doesnt add up to 18GB Alcyone#2233: not sure Alcyone#2233: memory leak in a program maybe Bertie Kemp#1114: Im going through and closing each program, they all seem to reduce it by a tiny bit though, still loads of ram being taken up by nothing EmperorOfFinland#9257: if its not visible on taskmanager it could also be a virus EmperorOfFinland#9257: or malware Bertie Kemp#1114: Thats true Orphanzombie#3114: which would be better for a server buy a old i5 pc like 2600 or something or a server/workstation tower Orphanzombie#3114: noise and power are not an issue Orphanzombie#3114: ideally something around x5650+ for cheap plus ability to put a gpu in
DarknessFalls229#2286: sidenote: the 2600 is an i7 Orphanzombie#3114: i havent looked back at budget parts in ages DarknessFalls229#2286: for a server you usually want cores DarknessFalls229#2286: but if you want to use it for gaming something with high clocks is better Orphanzombie#3114: yeah i was thinking a poweredge tower with shit cpus and change them for x5650s DarknessFalls229#2286: sounds like a plan Orphanzombie#3114: and whack in like 48 or so gbs of ram Orphanzombie#3114: also is mining with the effort if i dont pay for power Orphanzombie#3114: or family DarknessFalls229#2286: dunno, i wouldnt bother to go mining nowadays Orphanzombie#3114: yeah i remember it being huge a few years ago EmperorOfFinland#9257: well EmperorOfFinland#9257: given my experiences you want good clockspeed on the damn thing if you are planning to use it for gaming EmperorOfFinland#9257: and ipc too EmperorOfFinland#9257: especially the likes of minecraft
