mi3night#2562: True mi3night#2562: The gpu is gonna perform like a 1060 cuz the cpu which is a 5257u Bready_To.Die#8212: @mi3night meh DarknessFalls229#2286: @Bready_To.Die thats isnt just 32GBs of windows files, its basicly an entire backup of your windows installation DarknessFalls229#2286: Like when it needs to revert an update it could use that Bready_To.Die#8212: @DarknessFalls229 it was nuked so whatevs JustinXenyx#8854: that's not really correct though, especially for windows updates @DarknessFalls229 DarknessFalls229#2286: Yeah, backups can be removed, not gonna hold it against ya DarknessFalls229#2286: Whats windows doing then justin? DarknessFalls229#2286: Cause this is how i remember it doing that JustinXenyx#8854: It depends on how the Windows.old folder was created JustinXenyx#8854: like windows says, this can be garbage files that would break an update or that aren't needed with a new update JustinXenyx#8854: But if this folder got created by installing Windows fresh without formatting the drive this is pretty much the previous windows installation DarknessFalls229#2286: Kinda like an irrevertible backup then, in that particular sense? Clode#2428: I know pre builts suck
Clode#2428: But this for 589 € is a good buy? Clode#2428: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/742328997555470377/20200810_112921.jpg FantaStick#8008: Doesn't seem that good even by prebuilt standards Clode#2428: Really? Clode#2428: For like the same specs or better could it be cheaper? MythologicalZ#3752: crappy board, likely single channel 8gb stick, nvidia rx 570 essentially and a single 240gb ssd FantaStick#8008: Yeah I bet you can find that spec for cheaper/ a better system for that price FantaStick#8008: I don't know EU market very well so grain of salt Clode#2428: Im thinking abou maybe a ryzen 3 3000x Clode#2428: Here in Portugal prices are really horrible in comparassion JustinXenyx#8854: Even then you shouldn't be using an "Azza" 550W 80+ Bronze PSU FantaStick#8008: Anything is fine as long as it's not a known bomb FantaStick#8008: Especially on a low end build like that with low power draw JustinXenyx#8854: > Anything is fine as long as it's not a known bomb well if this isn't a lot of horseshit
FantaStick#8008: *ah we've found the PSU snob* DarknessFalls229#2286: @JustinXenyx do you know what determines the amount of pcie lanes a 775 socket motherboard has? DarknessFalls229#2286: Cause im a bit puzzled JustinXenyx#8854: it's related to the north bridge as neither the PCIe or RAM controller were on the CPUs with LGA775 DarknessFalls229#2286: Hmmm interesting DarknessFalls229#2286: Cause in my non functional crossfire setup 2 cards are running at 16x 2.0 and one at 8x 1.1 DarknessFalls229#2286: Also, what determines if a 775 board is crossfire compatible? FantaStick#8008: Whether or not they paid the royalties for it / have the lanes for it DarknessFalls229#2286: Erm, pretty sure crossfire is royalty free FantaStick#8008: *shrugs* FantaStick#8008: Then it's just the amount of lanes you've got basically MythologicalZ#3752: if its intel with 2 pcie it has xfire on 775 MythologicalZ#3752: can only do sli on nvidia chipsets FantaStick#8008: Is xfire/sli support baked onto the Northbridge on 775? MythologicalZ#3752: cant do xfire on nvidia either
BigPierogi#3368: So you can only have 1 or the other? MythologicalZ#3752: yeah BigPierogi#3368: br8u MythologicalZ#3752: from 1366 onwards you can do both MythologicalZ#3752: since nvidia quit chipsets FantaStick#8008: Chipset limitations FantaStick#8008: Not a lot of space for bios and stuff JustinXenyx#8854: we can be lucky that Nvidia dipped on the chipset game, otherwise we might still have needed custom Nvidia chipsets for SLI Lady Mipha#0611: yes MythologicalZ#3752: check drivers/board support if 3 way isnt working MythologicalZ#3752: probably just shit drivers FantaStick#8008: As far as 2/3/4 way xfire or sli I guess it's just based on what the manufacturer felt like supporting MythologicalZ#3752: nvidia needs 8x for sli, can do xfire on basically anything MythologicalZ#3752: quad sli is doable without plx on consumer boards if the manufacturer paid for the license but youre limited to dual gpus for 4 way MythologicalZ#3752: you dont need quadfire certification to get it to work but Im from what ive seen it helps when setting it up
FantaStick#8008: Wack FantaStick#8008: Real question is, why are you trying to do 3 way xfire on 775 FantaStick#8008: *or use 775 at all* JustinXenyx#8854: he isn't trying to use it as his main system FantaStick#8008: I assumed that MythologicalZ#3752: probably just messing around FantaStick#8008: Fair enough MythologicalZ#3752: https://www.3dmark.com/3dmv/5832079 MythologicalZ#3752: can be fun sometimes MythologicalZ#3752: when you get the shit drivers to function FantaStick#8008: Lmao FantaStick#8008: *now do gtx 690s* MythologicalZ#3752: nvidia is aids to oc MythologicalZ#3752: 3dm is broken with ids, in reality that is a single 6970 and a 6990 FantaStick#8008: Oh
MythologicalZ#3752: so 3 way 6970s but two are power limited FantaStick#8008: I thought you actually had 3 6990s FantaStick#8008: I was like you absolute madman MythologicalZ#3752: crossfire is limited to 4 cards MythologicalZ#3752: I do actually have 3 but two have killed themselves FantaStick#8008: *just make your own 6 way xfire firmware it'll be fine* Kacpreusz#7656: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/742374412258639932/IMG_20200810_152927868.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/742374413273399296/IMG_20200810_152940573.jpg Kacpreusz#7656: Now i see the appeal of a white iPhone Kacpreusz#7656: Black just loves to get scratches jay1185#0112: there's only one button. *i'm out* DarknessFalls229#2286: @MythologicalZ oh, hmmm DarknessFalls229#2286: Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, my crossfire setup aint gonna work DarknessFalls229#2286: Shucks DarknessFalls229#2286: @FantaStick im just having fun with hardware DarknessFalls229#2286: Fun fact, i actually have 4 GTX 690s, but not enough of them work for quad SLI
Kacpreusz#7656: Does it matter where i put the fuse in a powerbank? I mean positive or negative battery terminal Dogecode#7321: In the market for a good monitor since mine seems to have finally bit the dust, any suggestions Alcyone#2233: @Kacpreusz fuses go positive side, close to the power source uoʇsodɾ#2412: What do you want out of it and at what price? uoʇsodɾ#2412: @Dogecode Dogecode#7321: @uoʇsodɾ I’d like to try 1440p or 4k but if good ones are way more than 1080p then I’ll probably settle for that. $200-300 is roughly my budget uoʇsodɾ#2412: Do you game on it? DarknessFalls229#2286: @"Cobs" seems like that pcie raid card might have bricked my hd 4670, after installing it the screen got all jumbled up and not even a bios flash fixed it. DarknessFalls229#2286: Shame cause i liked that card "Cobs"#1150: I doubt the raid card would cause that Deleted User#0000: ay Deleted User#0000: just a longevity question about CPU's and GPU's if i stuck the temps at like 30 to 50 (GPU) and 40 - 60 (CPU) can i expect them to last atleast 5 years?
Deleted User#0000: while maintaning the case clean and stuff Deleted User#0000: or it isnt about temps? just for curiosity Alcyone#2233: they will last forever at near the shutdown temp Alcyone#2233: look how many working ref r9 290x are for sale or old laptops, those all run at 90c or more wiryfuture🦀#1706: my 7950 at 90c playing csgo and valorant :crome: wiryfuture🦀#1706: I smell burning then remember my neighbours are burning shit and this card also used to belong to a smoker, which you can, uh, smell wiryfuture🦀#1706: :Mainman: DarknessFalls229#2286: Longevity is withheld with lower temperatures (for most parts) but what that longevity IS remains unknown, a CPU running underclocked on watercooling might just crap out suddenly while a max OCd one might last years, though, chances of it failing change alongside it DarknessFalls229#2286: I myself havent really broke anything while overclocking or overheating DarknessFalls229#2286: But i have broke like 2 GPUs and a PSU with just stock settings FantaStick#8008: It's just silicon quality/ good 'ol silicon lottery, gotta remember there are always imperfections in the process and that electrons do whatever the fuck they want FantaStick#8008: Generally CPUs and GPUs are semi immortal wiryfuture🦀#1706: unless someone likes scraping/peeling the pins off Lady Mipha#0611: @Kacpreusz finally got that ipad from the teacher https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/742540900173086780/image0.jpg
Deleted User#0000: Is it normal for thermal paste to get a bit sticky and dry after few months? FantaStick#8008: Yes FantaStick#8008: Some get dry and crusty instead FantaStick#8008: Depends on the paste Deleted User#0000: Mine is some grey goo stuff Deleted User#0000: Also does white ceramic paste lasts longer? FantaStick#8008: No idea FantaStick#8008: I have a tub of it FantaStick#8008: I rarely use it The United States Air Force#7904: Is a 525w dell precision t3500 psu, 1tb sata wd hdd and a quadro fx 580 512mb worth it for $40? vegetal#8870: someobe i know wants a new pc for 400 USD, currently on a FX4300 with RX460, 8GB ram and some toshiba hdd and a phanteks 500w psu vegetal#8870: i gave him a list with a 4770k and RX480 on Z97 vegetal#8870: and an ssd DarknessFalls229#2286: Kinda decent Muse#0557: You could definitely squeeze in a 1600
DarknessFalls229#2286: Ive seen used 3600's go at 100 euro sometimes DarknessFalls229#2286: So in terms of used ryzen is highly notable wiryfuture🦀#1706: I've been doing some research and it looks like people don't think using a voltage step-up module is the best way of powering a raspberry pi from batteries, but I don't know how else you could do it DarknessFalls229#2286: Does the pie require 5v? Hyperstar#5134: I think but you can just search it up the raspberry pi website Hyperstar#5134: which raspberry pi are you exactly talking about wiryfuture🦀#1706: zero w wiryfuture🦀#1706: If I wire three AAs in series, I get ~4v (~~3.95v) wiryfuture🦀#1706: which should be enough.. FantaStick#8008: Some people have had sucess with that FantaStick#8008: Could also use a 3.7 li-po battery too FantaStick#8008: The 5v spec is only really required for supplying power for USB spec wiryfuture🦀#1706: hmmm FantaStick#8008: Otherwise the board converts most inputs down to 3.3v for the microprocessor and other components wiryfuture🦀#1706: I do need to also plug a 3g modem to it
FantaStick#8008: I would suggest just using a buck converter wiryfuture🦀#1706: so would probably need more FantaStick#8008: Convert that 3.7v to 5v wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'll take a look FantaStick#8008: Should be able to find a lot of cheap tiny boards that'll do the step up for you wiryfuture🦀#1706: yeah I saw something like that but I lost it :crome: wiryfuture🦀#1706: I don't reeally want to buy off alibaba or aliexpress where I'll have to wait months FantaStick#8008: XL6009 Boost Converter, SDTC Tech DC to DC Step Up Module 3V-32V 5V to 5V-35V 9V 12V 24V Adjustable Voltage Power Supply Circuit Board - 2 Pack https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RZT7J61/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_6LOmFb61301Q2 FantaStick#8008: Stuff like that wiryfuture🦀#1706: yeah FantaStick#8008: It's adjustable for input and output wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm trying to find anything in the uk first, so shipping won't take, uh, weeks and weeks FantaStick#8008: Yeah check your Amazon over there FantaStick#8008: They should have stuff DarknessFalls229#2286: @wiryfuture🦀 what about power bank?
DarknessFalls229#2286: You can charge it, discharhe it and hook it up with usb DarknessFalls229#2286: No hacking, spotwelding, soldering required wiryfuture🦀#1706: eh wiryfuture🦀#1706: I don't have a power bank I can sacrifice wiryfuture🦀#1706: and I think this would (ultimately) be smaller wiryfuture🦀#1706: There's lots of these on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DC-DC-1-8V-2-5V-3V-3-3V-3-7V-To5V-step-up-power-voltage-boost-converter-board-gJ/283920648272 wiryfuture🦀#1706: but there's one review and it says it output 9v :crome: wiryfuture🦀#1706: his looks interesting https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hobby-Components-Ltd-0-9v-5v-Step-up/dp/B00D781POM#:~:text=Compare%20with%20similar%20items%20%20%20%20This,AZ-Delivery-Shop%20%20%20Guangzhouxinqinwangluokeji%20%20%20ANQIT%20 FantaStick#8008: Yeah I didn't suggest battery pack because I assumed he was going for as small as possible FantaStick#8008: Also battery pack would still require a little bit of soldering FantaStick#8008: But soldering is fun wiryfuture🦀#1706: yeah. wiryfuture🦀#1706: think I'll just buy this from here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DC-DC-USB-0-9v-5v-to-5vdc-Boost-Step-up-Power-Supply-Module-Mini-PFM-Control/140982223808 wiryfuture🦀#1706: good enough, I think.. wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'll never understand the stuff that's being sold at a loss- where the shipping is free and the shipping should cost more than the listing itself

I cannot just connect it to any sata port to any motherboard "Cobs"#1150: Correct yeah, SATA drives will work with both SAS and SATA controllers, however SAS will **only** work with SAS ports and SAS controllers. DarknessFalls229#2286: And would you know if the cards i showed a few ago are sas? "Cobs"#1150: That second card (longer one) was a sas controller i think DarknessFalls229#2286: Hmmm "Cobs"#1150: https://www.cnet.com/products/3ware-9650se-2lp-storage-controller-raid-sata-3gb-s-pcie-x1-9650se2lpbsgl/ ah maybe not, sata 3gbps
DarknessFalls229#2286: And being a somewhat server platform, how about skulltrail? "Cobs"#1150: unless you have a sas controller, you can't plug the drives in wiryfuture🦀#1706: 😦 DarknessFalls229#2286: Now thats a braided cable https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/742771661153239071/20200811_174910.jpg FantaStick#8008: Cursed Kacpreusz#7656: why would you do that Kacpreusz#7656: not a good idea DarknessFalls229#2286: I wondered if you could braid a cable with more than 3 wires DarknessFalls229#2286: Simply had a cut off sata power cable lying around Kacpreusz#7656: Ah, ok FantaStick#8008: Yes you can braid with as many wires as you want Kacpreusz#7656: this Sata cable looks like a toddler's hair but german uoʇsodɾ#2412: I want to see this done in a build. uoʇsodɾ#2412: And what screen size do you need? @Dogecode uoʇsodɾ#2412: My notes: $200-$300, 4K only at a good price. 1080P only if it preforms really well. Will be used for gaming. (1ms-5ms Faster is better but hurts the color and price),+60Hz. (144Hz I hear can be found at a reasonable price.)
wiryfuture🦀#1706: shouldn't 120 be fine over 144 if the colour is better uoʇsodɾ#2412: That's what the +60 is for. 144 is very common. That's why I listed it. wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm asking if 120 is ok if better quality because I know some people insistent for having 144 and 120 not being enough wiryfuture🦀#1706: and yes they only play games on their computer uoʇsodɾ#2412: A lot of this comes down to preference. It's like if you get a group of 100 people and have them buy audio stuff (With there own money). They will all pick different stuff. wiryfuture🦀#1706: yeah wiryfuture🦀#1706: ☑️ uoʇsodɾ#2412: I personally use a 75Hz 6bpp 1080p ultrawide because it's good enough. It is not as fast as my CRT but I still use the ultrawide while gaming over the CRT. My laptop display at 60Hz 6bpp is not good enough for me because I can see it flicker with some colors. (6bpp displays can not reproduce all the colors that 32bit color has to offer and flickers in between the 2 closest colors). uoʇsodɾ#2412: Most people can not see my laptop screen flicker. wiryfuture🦀#1706: my display has shit colours and dynamic range wiryfuture🦀#1706: my eyes hurt because the black is so gray when there's white on the screen wiryfuture🦀#1706: but oh well uoʇsodɾ#2412: My dad's display needs DP1.4 to run at 60Hz because it uses 10bpp at 4k. With DP 1.2 it caps out at 30Hz. Even at 60Hz the lag is very bad but stomps all over the CRT and OLED phone display in color. uoʇsodɾ#2412: I also don't recommend ultrawide for strictly gaming. I like it for it's more efficient use of my space. Widescreens are better for modern games/movies and standard 4:3 ratio is better for older games/movies. uoʇsodɾ#2412: The Pixio PX329 is a 1440P display @165Hz (Very nice), 4ms response time(Could be somewhat better for gaming but not unplayable), VA (I've never used a VA panel. It's better that a TN panel in color but not as good as a IPS panel), 8bpp with 93% sRGB coverage (This is fine for games but is bad for photo editing.), and AMD freesync 2 over DP 1.2. Tell me what you like or find more important and what you don't like about this and I'll find one that fits you better. I picked this one because it's above 60Hz and less than 5ms response first. Then the resolution second. And the screen size 3ed. There are other things to considered but this should get us started. I picked from this list https://pcpartpicker.com/products/monitor/#X=0,30000&D=70000,280000&G=100000000000,5000000000000&r=768004320,576002160,512002880,512002160,512001440,409602160,384002160,384001600,344001440,256001600,256001440,204801536&sort=-size&page=1
I also liked the Acer KG271U bmiippx 27 for it's response time, and the Acer V277U for it's IPS display. Oh. And I'm using the US price and availability. It could be different for you. uoʇsodɾ#2412: @Dogecode uoʇsodɾ#2412: http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/ I use this website to do color correction with my displays. wiryfuture🦀#1706: finally got me some soldering wick, can't wait to do some prototyping with an rpi uoʇsodɾ#2412: Raspberry Pi is super nice. Which one? wiryfuture🦀#1706: zero w wiryfuture🦀#1706: small boi wiryfuture🦀#1706: but I'm kinda obsessed with single board computers in general wiryfuture🦀#1706: it's just that the pi(s) are the cheapest, most readily available option with good support uoʇsodɾ#2412: It's more of a system on chip. wiryfuture🦀#1706: eh wiryfuture🦀#1706: I guess wiryfuture🦀#1706: I mean
wiryfuture🦀#1706: it is uoʇsodɾ#2412: Ryzen APU laptop with soldered RAM and SSD. wiryfuture🦀#1706: but boards like the rpi give lots more flexibility than what comes to my mind with soc (I think phones, tablets or embedded devices tbh) wiryfuture🦀#1706: > Ryzen APU laptop with soldered RAM and SSD. @uoʇsodɾ sounds like a macbook :epicgamer: uoʇsodɾ#2412: rpi has a flex IO and is in a small form factor. I think that's what led it to it's success. (not accounting for marketing) wiryfuture🦀#1706: yeah wiryfuture🦀#1706: so much io wiryfuture🦀#1706: and you can modify it ridiculously easily wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'd say that it's the perfect all-rounder for IOT stuff wiryfuture🦀#1706: sure, you can get more dedicated hardware for very specific tasks, but if you just want to make something that works, the pi will uoʇsodɾ#2412: I feel most everything that a pi is used for a Arduino can do better. wiryfuture🦀#1706: Yeah wiryfuture🦀#1706: I think most people use an Arduino and pi simultaneously uoʇsodɾ#2412: Pi is more fun though.
wiryfuture🦀#1706: ~~so they don't accidentally fry the pi haha~~ uoʇsodɾ#2412: I've had this unit in use for many years and it has always made me wonder about where it gets it chip temp from. Like where on the chip and how deep it is. (top of the chip is where the heatsync touches. The temp sensor is not broken. When my case temp changes by 5C then sensor changes with it by 5C. As does my GPU and CPU. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/742841687054876754/unknown.png uoʇsodɾ#2412: I've seen above 270C on it. JustinXenyx#8854: Just to chime in, if you were to A-B test 120Hz vs 144Hz you'd instantly tell that this 24Hz difference is basically placebo/not noticeable to most people @wiryfuture🦀 wiryfuture🦀#1706: yeah lol wiryfuture🦀#1706: unless you're a GAMER GRRRR Dogecode#7321: @uoʇsodɾ How’s the AOC CQ27G1? It appears to have nearly the same specs as the Pixio (VA panel, 1440p, 144hz refresh) for $50 less Dogecode#7321: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07V39QHMY?tag=rtings-mn-r-20&ie=UTF8 Dogecode#7321: Linus featured it in his monitor roundup last year and I saw it on a few other sites JustinXenyx#8854: To be quite honest with you people, i'd avoid VA in its entirety JustinXenyx#8854: it has horrible ghosting wiryfuture🦀#1706: I thought IPS had surpassed VA and TN panels by now FantaStick#8008: VA is kind of wack FantaStick#8008: either say fuck viewing angles cause you're a normal human being that sits in front of their monitor and get TN, or spend the extra money and get IPS for a nicer display, IPS is almost a necessity if you're doing any sort of work that need to be color accurate Xbox 360 1953#2640: Anyone know about home theatere systems?
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Esp Sony ones? Abe.#3344: Can I get some opinions on this £1000 build? The dude likes RGB and doesn't need peripherals. Abe.#3344: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/obliveater95/saved/VQZfvK uoʇsodɾ#2412: @Dogecode It would be nearly identical to my eyes. VA panel (has ghosting like others have pointed out), 1ms response time (your not going to get better than this on your budget), lower refresh but still above 60Hz, 8bpp color with 102% sRGB coverage, AMD freesync 2 over DP, and slightly smaller. boog#9487: Dump was generous again https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/742881838187413514/20200811_131803.jpg boog#9487: N64 with Mario tennis, power cable and video cable oh and two controllers then in the same box I found a ps1/2 arcade controller and a Sony ps1 mouse and a few other miscellaneous things boog#9487: N64 works, haven't tested the arcade controller but usually stuff work and I can't test the Sony mouse as I have no compatible games, and ye boog#9487: Also not gonna lie Mario tennis be the most fun game I've found in the dump uoʇsodɾ#2412: Nice. Alcyone#2233: nice find boog#9487: Yeah hopefully I can get somewhere to set my consoles up soon as right now they're all boxed up or on a shelf uoʇsodɾ#2412: Acer V277U bmiipx would be my pick if I want with 1440P and using my own money. IPS is super important in my book but it has worse backlight blead than TN. (I avoid TN because of how it shifts color when it is viewed from a different angle and VA for it's ghosting). It also has a 8bpp panel at 75Hz with a 4ms response time. Any better than the ones that where discussed in combined color and refresh under $300 would require you to go to 1080P. uoʇsodɾ#2412: I like this $300 budget you have. It's realistic and says that you don't want to spend a billon bucks. 🙂
uoʇsodɾ#2412: Just a quick guide to translate bpp. bpp is bits per pixel. It determines how many colors can be mapped to each pixel. More is better. 6bpp = 16 bit depth. 8bpp = 24 bit depth. 10bpp = 32 bit depth. FantaStick#8008: wouldnt go too crazy, after a certain point if youre not doing work that needs color accuracy youre just getting diminishing returns uoʇsodɾ#2412: Yes. 10bpp at the coast of screen response time and refresh is when you go to crazy. That's why I put in the note above no higher than 5ms of response time. FantaStick#8008: yeah, its crazy how expensive those extremely color accurate monitors are uoʇsodɾ#2412: At 1080P I like the MSI Optix MAG241C. 6bpp at 144Hz and 128% sRGB coverage. It also has a 1ms response time and freesync (5ms).

16gb ddr 3 2133mhz xmp sticks from hyperX. Is this something good or bad? FantaStick#8008: assuming that its working, thats very good FantaStick#8008: cpu is worth more as a keychain, motherboard goes for over 250$ on ebay, and the ram should get you another easy 50-60$ dexsters56#4904: Well everything works dexsters56#4904: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/743218419222184016/IMG_-m4xk62.jpg dexsters56#4904: I put a cheap watercooker on it bc i didnt like the stock intel cooler dexsters56#4904: Should i get a X5670 for it or no?

JustinXenyx#8854: A lot of motherboards do
JustinXenyx#8854: but i think it would be silly to choose a motherboard simply for having 2 PS/2 ports JustinXenyx#8854: *especially when USB mice are way better than PS2 mice* Deleted User#0000: I guess they might be.

After doing a little more research I’m also not a huge fan of the AOC CQ27G1 not only because it’s a VA panel but also because of its abysmal 250 nit peak brightness Dogecode#7321: I’m looking at the Pixio PX275h now. IPS panel, 1440p, great color specs and basic HDR support for around $260. The 95hz refresh rate is still a little low but that’s about as good as you can get for 1440p IPS at this price point.

I clr the cmos and reset all oc profiles in bios.

It also appears that It looks like there is a 8pin to 2 6pin to 4 Molex adaptors.. They sell a 8 pin to 2 Molex adaptor. https://www.amazon.com/Molex-Express-Converter-Adapter-Power/dp/B085T49JZN/ref=sr_1_34?dchild=1&keywords=8+pin+to+molex&qid=1597377185&s=electronics&sr=1-34 Also try to use 2 separate Molex cables to the GPU. Connecting 2 molex plugs on the same cable to a 8 pin can sometimes overamp the cable or a rail on the PSU. Connecting 4 molex plugs with 2 cables has no meaningful benefit over connecting 1 plug per cable. I would also try to get the CPU power cable to run under the GPU and along side the CPU VRM heatsink. The fan cables would look better the red and black pairs where twisted together. I would try to move the 2 drives to the bottom of the HDD cage and zip-tie the SATA cables to the (single?) zip-tie mount in the case. Super job on routing the fan cables and using the 6 pin that the PSU comes with. It looks a lot nicer then how it was. :thumbsupcat:

My dad told me they take pictures with his Note 10+. D.D.M#8226: Could it be because of the resolution? D.D.M#8226: He shoots at 16:9 aspect ratio 1080p D.D.M#8226: And the frame didn't have this problem with pictures from my dads old galaxy s7
thatubuntuguy#5914: What do you mean by horizontal rectangles thatubuntuguy#5914: Like does the image become glitchy thatubuntuguy#5914: Is the glitching only on the Note 10+ pictures Hyperstar#5134: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/744226709125070848/IMG_20200814_185231057.jpg Slyse#2578: Came across a graphics card exactly like this, can't seem to find correct drivers for it https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/744229329034281020/Z.png Slyse#2578: obviously not a real GTX960, but has anyone had a card like this and found drivers that actually work? Slyse#2578: doesnt even have a pci power connector MythologicalZ#3752: probably some fermi card that needs a reflash MythologicalZ#3752: check the die Slyse#2578: the text on the die has worn off Slyse#2578: but its something like G116? MythologicalZ#3752: gf116 is 550ti JustinXenyx#8854: You need to reflash the proper VBIOS to make those cards work with their actual drivers @Slyse JustinXenyx#8854: And you cannot reflash them via software, you need an EEPROM flasher Slyse#2578: okay
Slyse#2578: is there a how-to on it, or should I not bother? MythologicalZ#3752: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ra0T0j5KoAc Slyse#2578: looks like a nono for me, anyway, big thanks for the help! MythologicalZ#3752: :TheGoods: Hyperstar#5134: Myth, do you like duel 8 pins Hyperstar#5134: Just making sure Hyperstar#5134: 👀 MythologicalZ#3752: more power is nice JustinXenyx#8854: but 8 pin vs 6 pin power is purely an artificial difference JustinXenyx#8854: they use the same cable thickness, they're almost the same connector Hyperstar#5134: What power supply would I need for running 2 Xeon X5672's with a RTX 2060 JustinXenyx#8854: something something you really aren't stupid enough to buy a 2060 for a computer like that something something JustinXenyx#8854: something something you can buy a way better pc just for the price of a 2060 alone something something Hyperstar#5134: Yeah, its more theoretical MythologicalZ#3752: probably 650w
MythologicalZ#3752: depends if your board needs dual eps Hyperstar#5134: duel sps? JustinXenyx#8854: i'm going to assume he is referring to his Z600 Hyperstar#5134: fuk you keyboard MythologicalZ#3752: dual cpu power connectors Hyperstar#5134: I haven't checked JustinXenyx#8854: For a Z600 you'd need a fuck ton of adapters to put in a new power supply Hyperstar#5134: Yep Muse#0557: Justin is dying JustinXenyx#8854: hell you cannot even put a new power supply in Hyperstar#5134: If I were blind, this would be new news. Muse#0557: RTX 2060 would be bottlenecked to shit Muse#0557: Most only need 1 8 pin iirc Hyperstar#5134: Since its so proprietary, maybe it only needs 1 JustinXenyx#8854: going off pure PCIe power specs, a 2060 could draw up to 225W
Hyperstar#5134: Don't know if it works like that Muse#0557: 75w+150w Muse#0557: (Pcie lane + 8 Pin) MythologicalZ#3752: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/744239106518679602/X8DTH-iF_600x600.png MythologicalZ#3752: boards like this for example DarknessFalls229#2286: Thats right, you can run cables out of spec and go above and beyond 300w Muse#0557: 2 4 pins per cpu is stupid Muse#0557: But fella dont even consider a 2060 with a quad core x58 xeon setup DarknessFalls229#2286: I think he had dual 6 cores DarknessFalls229#2286: But it would still be stupid Muse#0557: Nope Muse#0557: Dual Quad Cores MythologicalZ#3752: 5672s are quads yeah Muse#0557: Worth like 5 bucks Muse#0557: With almost C2Q Ipc
MythologicalZ#3752: like most 4c 1366 chips JustinXenyx#8854: https://img.alicdn.com/imgextra/i3/TB1480kHXXXXXXLXpXXXXXXXXXX_!!0-item_pic.jpg JustinXenyx#8854: that's the board of his machine MythologicalZ#3752: ouch BigPierogi#3368: that form factor MythologicalZ#3752: at least dual pcie is nice BigPierogi#3368: looks like it can do tri channel? Muse#0557: Dont think it can Muse#0557: Would it be 1.5x Muse#0557: Idk MythologicalZ#3752: need 3 dimms for tri channel MythologicalZ#3752: assuming each cpu uses 3 slots each and not some weird combo it'll run triple Muse#0557: Ah Muse#0557: Am being dunb BigPierogi#3368: dunb
DarknessFalls229#2286: One dimm per channel Muse#0557: Are there any quin or sex channel sockets Muse#0557: Yes thats what six is called MythologicalZ#3752: hexa MythologicalZ#3752: I think 3467 has hexa channel Muse#0557: Wouldnt it be Sextuple Muse#0557: Wait bo Muse#0557: Dual not double FantaStick#8008: They use hexa because people are too immature to refer to sextuple properly FantaStick#8008: Also because words get ugly after that anyway Alcyone#2233: turing and navi dont always play nice with leagacy bios boards Muse#0557: Not surprised Alcyone#2233: Also anything old enough to have no efi probably doesnt need a great gpu to reach its peak potential. I would think maybe a 1070/ti/1080 would be where the fps stopped scaling much Xbox 360 1953#2640: Now that I have a 2600 and a 2060, I'm at the point where I start buying qol stuff, right? Muse#0557: Its time to go appreciate your wife
Muse#0557: And take car of the children Muse#0557: Maybe visit the inlaws Xbox 360 1953#2640: I finally made it to end game JustinXenyx#8854: PFF you think you're at the end? JustinXenyx#8854: THINK AGAIN JustinXenyx#8854: Now you gotta buy an overkill rig! Xbox 360 1953#2640: Fug Xbox 360 1953#2640: Well I'm better off than I was before Xbox 360 1953#2640: Kinda wanna get some more ram n a cooler Xbox 360 1953#2640: Maybe a shadow rock 3 or smt Ramiere#1840: I have a turtle beach headset that stopped working on my pc a while ago I tested it in my android and it works fine but my pc doesnt pick up any sound from it even when plugged directly into the microphone port Alcyone#2233: right click the speaker icon> sound settings and make sure its set as the input device Ramiere#1840: Already did that

JustinXenyx#8854: you can't just plug it into a mic port and expect the microphone to work JustinXenyx#8854: the pinout makes that literally impossible JustinXenyx#8854: and no your controller wasn't a splitter JustinXenyx#8854: controllers use the same TRRS jack pinout that phones do Xbox 360 1953#2640: Trrs is what the combined headphone and mic ones are called? That's good to know JustinXenyx#8854: Well that's technically what the connector is called JustinXenyx#8854: 3.5mm TRRS can also have analog video on it Ramiere#1840: It worked as the splitter for like 4 months though Ramiere#1840: Mic > controller > pc and it worked JustinXenyx#8854: It didn't work as a splitter though, that's fundamentally wrong JustinXenyx#8854: Controllers literally use the exact same connector and exact same pinout as any mobile TRRS headset does Muse#0557: Fellas how good is a intel Pro 1500 Muse#0557: Is it meh Muse#0557: Good Muse#0557: Bad

I have OCZ Platinums rated for 1866 9-9-9 DarknessFalls229#2286: At 1.65v Alcyone#2233: thats not a great bin but its pretty good DarknessFalls229#2286: My corsairs are rated for 1600 9-9-9-24 at 1.5v
Alcyone#2233: 2400 cl9 in 4gb are dimms to get DarknessFalls229#2286: Right, this isnt ddr2 voltages DarknessFalls229#2286: Yeah, but i didnt know i had 1866 sticks Alcyone#2233: if its the same capacity as the 1600 you should pop em in DarknessFalls229#2286: Wdym pop em in? Alcyone#2233: install the dimms DarknessFalls229#2286: In what motherboard? Alcyone#2233: 1155 DarknessFalls229#2286: The alienware?

Muse#0557: People buy enthisiast tho Muse#0557: for gaming Muse#0557: i want to show x58 is a bad option Alcyone#2233: x79 and x99 mi3night#2562: So 2008-2020 FantaStick#8008: Bottom line 775/x58 then? mi3night#2562: Ok no cpus older than 775 Muse#0557: oldest cpu ill put on there is final gen 775 C2D mi3night#2562: Leave out server e7 FantaStick#8008: Bottom tier should be the missing instructions tier mi3night#2562: And opteron Alcyone#2233: im pretty sure x58 is only still considered because of TYC vids FantaStick#8008: Opteron is too wack to put on a list FantaStick#8008: It sucks anyway mi3night#2562: People who buys bulldozer opteron in 2020:brainlet:
Alcyone#2233: opteron whack after athlon 64 based mi3night#2562: Ikr Muse#0557: I think 2 graphs is a good option Muse#0557: Productivity and Gaming Alcyone#2233: just gaming would paint amd in a bad light I think mi3night#2562: Also if it pure performance based or value @Muse Alcyone#2233: when their new cpus are the best all rounders for the money Muse#0557: Performance mi3night#2562: Oh ok Muse#0557: I plan to do a different graph for what to buy at price points mi3night#2562: You cant just tell everyone to buy 10600k Alcyone#2233: am4 is the new 1155 Muse#0557: 1155 is sex Alcyone#2233: 1155 is the new 775 mi3night#2562: What about 1151
Alcyone#2233: its 1151 mi3night#2562: 1151 is the new 478 FantaStick#8008: I mean productivity will pain Intel in a bad light as well mi3night#2562: Oh FantaStick#8008: It's only fair mi3night#2562: In gaming ryzen is gonna suffer on high end Muse#0557: 1151 isnt new anything Muse#0557: amirite Muse#0557: bazinga mi3night#2562: 1151 was good mi3night#2562: Now its a meme FantaStick#8008: Not really mi3night#2562: I mean 8700k days Muse#0557: Yeh when ryzen had no ipc FantaStick#8008: 1151-v2 is not a meme
mi3night#2562: Oh FantaStick#8008: 1151-v1 is a meme mi3night#2562: I forgot v2 v3 exists Muse#0557: Ryzen 4000 is going to be about on par Muse#0557: tbh Muse#0557: call it buy its gen name not v2 Muse#0557: coffee lake mi3night#2562: Yeah coffee lake is the way to go if ur gaming FantaStick#8008: They separate it because coffee lake compatibility mi3night#2562: Right now zen3000 is capable mi3night#2562: Thats so dumb FantaStick#8008: It's called 1151-v2 for 8th+9th formally mi3night#2562: Imagine buying z270 FantaStick#8008: I mean if you bios mod it mi3night#2562: True
FantaStick#8008: Cha Cha real smooth mi3night#2562: @Muse start from bottom to top mi3night#2562: That way its easier Muse#0557: Listen Muse#0557: who here has made a frobot graph before mi3night#2562: I did it once for fun FantaStick#8008: I mean frobot is just an image Muse#0557: going from the top is much easier mi3night#2562: Oh Alcyone#2233: I want a kaby only x299 and a 7640x mi3night#2562: I went bottom to top mi3night#2562: I thought that was easier Muse#0557: What im going to do is pop 3950x at the top Muse#0557: e8400 at the bottom Muse#0557: and 2400 in the middle
FantaStick#8008: No Alcyone#2233: 2500k is low end mi3night#2562: Productivity ? FantaStick#8008: 2500k is low end Muse#0557: for gaming mi3night#2562: Gaming? Alcyone#2233: even for games FantaStick#8008: Middle low end Muse#0557: We are having 2 graphs mi3night#2562: I think 10600k and 10700k should be top Alcyone#2233: 2600x and 9600k need to be the mids Muse#0557: 9600k isnt mid Muse#0557: i want to make mid what most people buy Muse#0557: hense why the 1060 was mid on the gpu Muse#0557: and it worked well
FantaStick#8008: Ehhh Alcyone#2233: what do most people buy? FantaStick#8008: I think mid should really be the middle Muse#0557: if i put 2600x at the mid Muse#0557: the low end is gonna be crammed FantaStick#8008: It is tho Muse#0557: and all the way to the top is marginal step ups FantaStick#8008: CPUs have been moving so fast Alcyone#2233: anything with no avx instructions needs to be super low end Muse#0557: i think that haswell should be mid tbh Muse#0557: 4690k FantaStick#8008: No Muse#0557: that seems reasonable FantaStick#8008: 4770k mid Alcyone#2233: I think that is upper low end
FantaStick#8008: 4690k get either low mid or high low Alcyone#2233: haswell i7 could be lower mid range FantaStick#8008: ^ FantaStick#8008: Broadwell memes tho FantaStick#8008: *the true midrange* Muse#0557: I dont want to make the graph useless, if i put something too strong at the mid Muse#0557: itll be so crampt FantaStick#8008: How would the graph be useless Alcyone#2233: because with new gamer gpus, a haswell i7 is gonna be the lowest that will carry them FantaStick#8008: We are grouping CPUs I thought FantaStick#8008: Are we doing individual skus? Muse#0557: because itll look like theres the same difference between an e8400 and 2500k that there is between a 2600x and 10700k FantaStick#8008: There's way to many individual skus Alcyone#2233: i would leave out oc results wiryfuture🦀#1706: frobot graph for cpu
Alcyone#2233: because of that Muse#0557: yes philip FantaStick#8008: Minimum spec for a lot of modern titles is surprisingly high Muse#0557: im going to put an i5 3470 where i put the 1060 Muse#0557: and roll from there Alcyone#2233: you can oc locked ivy to beat locked lake FantaStick#8008: Haswell i7s barely cut it Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/744994614511140864/4.1ghz.png Muse#0557: cpu is harder Muse#0557: theres not as large jumps FantaStick#8008: I think you should put r3 1200 as midrange then FantaStick#8008: If you wanna space things out Muse#0557: the 1200 is a 2400 Muse#0557: ffs Alcyone#2233: I think 3100 and 3300x should be the gauge for mid range
Muse#0557: they are so close Muse#0557: I think alcyone has it FantaStick#8008: 1200 slightly better Alcyone#2233: they are $100 and $120 or should be FantaStick#8008: Bad example tbh Muse#0557: yeh thatd make it equiv to a 1060 on the other graph Muse#0557: would work well FantaStick#8008: R5 1400 then Muse#0557: We're gonna try 3100 FantaStick#8008: Or do the best selling 1600 Alcyone#2233: 1400 is okay, but not much ahead of a 3770k Muse#0557: Gotta think of a good way to present it Alcyone#2233: we're gonna be arguing over this for the next 3 months Muse#0557: How would i right 3rd gen ryzen r3 nicely FantaStick#8008: Just make it and we will try to rework it
Muse#0557: Zen 2 R3 Muse#0557: ? Muse#0557: R3 3000 Muse#0557: Ryzen 3 3xxx FantaStick#8008: I just thought putting ivy i5 as midrange makes the chips seem a lot better than they actually are Muse#0557: etc Alcyone#2233: just do the product number Muse#0557: I dont want to do model numbers Muse#0557: especially for ivy and stuff Alcyone#2233: not ernough people know zen, zen+, zen2 Muse#0557: gonna be a mess FantaStick#8008: Do Ryzen 3 3XXX Alcyone#2233: well like intel 2xxx amd 2xxx
