MythologicalZ#3752: unlocked is the one there, 120ish usd
Muse#0557: Yeh £99
Muse#0557: Not bad
MythologicalZ#3752: and no, its still fine even when locked
MythologicalZ#3752: runs cool and still games fine, nice for itx
Muse#0557: Fair point like £50 plus a h310 or H370 ITX board
MythologicalZ#3752: no support on h370
MythologicalZ#3752: or h310 for that matter iirc, need h310c
MythologicalZ#3752: best option is used giga z170 mid tier
MythologicalZ#3752: vrm is ok enough for 6c oc
jay1185#0112: So I have a tough choice on my hands. I have $65 on a Best Buy card (I usually never deal with them, but, they had a Microsoft Xbox One controller for $65. It broke so I took it back.)
[$50] Logitech G305 wireless mouse. Currently using an old M185 for the laptop.
[$50] Targus Terra 16" laptop backpack. Mine is torn badly.
[$52] 2x PNY 240GB SSD. Main PC + Wife PC. |
[$60] WD Blue 500GB SSD. Main PC HDD replacement.
[$63] Logitech C270 webcam + PNY 240GB SDD. Stream cam + main PC HDD replacement, as it's at 46k hours and my webcam has a green line through the output.
All SSDs come with $25 to spend at Shutterfly. Custom mousepads, mugs or something! My wife could order some of her photos on some fancy things or something, as well.
Muse#0557: Z170 for 8th gen?
MythologicalZ#3752: which pny ssds are these
jay1185#0112: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/pny-240gb-internal-sata-solid-state-drive/5900261.p?skuId=5900261
MythologicalZ#3752: yeah z170 for 8th, its all just 1151 with some mods needed
jay1185#0112: i guess i could've just put a model number, my bad lol
Muse#0557: I would get a webcam plus ssd
Muse#0557: 50 bucks for a g305 seems like a rip off
MythologicalZ#3752: cs900 is s11, avoid
Muse#0557: Oh it's wireless
Muse#0557: Oh it's a crappy ssd
MythologicalZ#3752: I would get blue for 60 personally |
jay1185#0112: yeah the pny ssd's i'm 10%/90% haha
Muse#0557: Do they have any WD SSDs?
MythologicalZ#3752: they use an unreliable controller
jay1185#0112: the next up WD they have is a blue 1TB for $110
MythologicalZ#3752: same as a400, so luck of the draw for long term
MythologicalZ#3752: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/757275303377633420/unknown.png
Muse#0557: I'd assume best buy carry wd blue ssds or something
Muse#0557: I'd get that plus a web cam
Muse#0557: Unless your laptop already has one
Muse#0557: Then I'd get an SSD and g203 or something
jay1185#0112: i'd ahve to scrape up some funds to throw with it. the blue 500gb is $60, cam is $40 and i only have $63
jay1185#0112: maybe i'll just gethe ssd
Muse#0557: Do they not have 240gb blues
jay1185#0112: they have a 240gb easystore
Muse#0557: What about online |
Muse#0557: There's no way they don't do 240gb blues
jay1185#0112: and no my laptop is using a drive i had laying around, old 320gb 5400
jay1185#0112: they might make them but they don't list them on Best Buy's site
MythologicalZ#3752: damn their ssd stock is pretty crap lol
jay1185#0112: a 250gb blue exists
MythologicalZ#3752: yeah but too expensive at 45 dollars
MythologicalZ#3752: may as well spring for the 500 for a bit more
jay1185#0112: yeah it is, i don't rly like best buy, but, i'm not getting another controller when my cheapie barely has stick drift (lol)
Muse#0557: Best buy is crap
Muse#0557: Ngl
Muse#0557: They exist to sell smart TVs
Muse#0557: And that's it
jay1185#0112: lol right?
MythologicalZ#3752: su800 is 40 for a 250gb but thats not great either
jay1185#0112: i got a guy back in car audio that i can get terminal connectors or small bits of wire and stuff if i need to, hehehe |
jay1185#0112: man i'm so bad at making choices
Muse#0557: Same
Muse#0557: Just
Muse#0557: The SSDs are a rip off
Muse#0557: So they're off the table
Muse#0557: Get those later
Muse#0557: I'd buy a g203 or corsair harpoon persoanlly they're wired but they're good for how cheap they are
Muse#0557: Also a cheapo laptop bag
jay1185#0112: the bag needs to be decent quality, as it carries more than just a laptop. =/
jay1185#0112: i have a g203 wired on my desktop atm
jay1185#0112: fantastic mouse
Muse#0557: You don't need to spend 50 on a bag
jay1185#0112: true, true.
jay1185#0112: idk man. all of their pricing sucks
Muse#0557: That's more that I spent on my backpack and laptop bags I've been using for like 3 years combined |
jay1185#0112: but the cost on the MicroShaft controller was nice. it's a shame the A-button died a week out of the full return date.
jay1185#0112: lol by this point i've been through 3 or 4 cheapie controllers (all of which still mostly work) and countless Microsoft ones that are garbage.
jay1185#0112: xbox one* controllers, i should've specified.
Muse#0557: Shouldn't they offer a replacement
Muse#0557: And refund
Muse#0557: And you pick?
jay1185#0112: the refund time window was one month, i did get the 2 year replacement, but they would've had to order one. I went through 3 MS xbox one controllers from early 2019 until a month ago. and i'm not particulary rough on mine. my friends throw theirs, slam them on desks, etc.. i baby mine, comparatively, and they break...
jay1185#0112: my one friend is really bad about twisting controllers lol. nerd rage.
Muse#0557: The xbox one controller is dog bollocks
jay1185#0112: not that they really twist, but, he tries.
Muse#0557: They feel so cheap
jay1185#0112: right? even the 'elite' ones
Muse#0557: The 360 just feels so smooth and durable
Muse#0557: The plastic on the xbox one
Muse#0557: Feels so cheap |
jay1185#0112: lol i'm gonna see if they have 360 wired controllers at Worst Buy real quick
Muse#0557: Worst Purchase
Muse#0557: 🙏
jay1185#0112: hehe
jay1185#0112: i feel ya though, my 360 controllers feel bulletproof comparatively.
Muse#0557: I love the 360
Muse#0557: Honestly
Muse#0557: My xbox one kicked the bucket before my 360 elite
Muse#0557: I've had 3 die on me
Muse#0557: 4 controllers perish
jay1185#0112: my disc drive is ded
jay1185#0112: on the xbone*
Muse#0557: I'm not buying a console til the Ps5 slim or switch pro

wiryfuture🦀#1706: I didn't have a pc until 2015/2016
jay1185#0112: speaking of FH, my buddy let me borrow FH2 and the disc just quit working. No scratches, damage or anything. He's a collector and all of his games are in pristine condition. It just quit working.
jay1185#0112: I literally played it, shut off the machine, came back about 10 hours later and the disc wouldn't work anymore.
wiryfuture🦀#1706: :sadcena:
wiryfuture🦀#1706: sad
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I'm really annoyed that I got rid of the console for cash
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I mean, I never used it after I got my pc and it was taking up lots of space with all the DVDs and stuff
wiryfuture🦀#1706: but still, nostalgia :crome:

Xbox 360 1953#2640: so like
Xbox 360 1953#2640: what the heck is super sampling
Deleted User#0000: rendering things at a higher resolution than your screen is?
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ^yea so if u have for example 100 pixels ( for example) and u wanna upscale to 400 pixels , each pixel would be "showing 4 pixels" which does look better than your normal res and reduces aliasing a hell lot , but doesnt look as good as native but it comes with a huge performance hit , dlss (the new nvidia feature) does super sampling by ai , it renders the image at like half res but upscales it using tencor cores , ( d.l.s.s. deep learning supersampling) which helps u get higher resolutions with a minamal fps imapct or higher fps at same res @Xbox 360 1953

@the aggresive toilet flusher what
JustinXenyx#8854: super sampling isn't just regular upscaling |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: hm
JustinXenyx#8854: DLSS isn't quite upscaling, but more guessing what belongs where
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: well like thats the ai part
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: thats why sometiiimeees dlss can look clearer
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: than even native
JustinXenyx#8854: DLSS isn't really Super Sampling though
JustinXenyx#8854: it's super sampling by name yes and that's technically what it does, but it isn't what is considered super sampling
JustinXenyx#8854: You basically answered "what is super sampling" with "this is what DLSS does"
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: well like its not supersampling in a sense that u still need a 4k monitor if wanna dlss 4k if i understand corectly but super sampling is a lower res monitor with a higher res rendered
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: edited
JustinXenyx#8854: No super sampling is a lower res image being displayed on a higher res monitor with AA
JustinXenyx#8854: DLSS is also using a lower resolution, but it uses a lot more deep learning trickery that goes further than just applying AA
JustinXenyx#8854: DLSS basically takes the lower res image and tweaks it with image processing to make it look like what it's been trained to make it look like
JustinXenyx#8854: Which isn't as resource heavy as direct rendering
JustinXenyx#8854: "lower res monitor with a higher res rendered" This is the explanation for the opposite effect, called Downsampling |
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: > No super sampling is a lower res image being displayed on a higher res monitor with AA
@JustinXenyx that doesnt make sense whats the difference between this and just setting that lower res as your res and applying AA? unless there is upscaling going on
Alcyone#2233: I thought super sampling was rendering at a higher res and downscaling to the native res as well
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: yes
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: thats what i though too
JustinXenyx#8854: why would that be called *super* sampling though
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: cause it umm compresses? idk the work im looking for , the higher res into less pixles so now it looks better
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh i know why
Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/757662256527048736/unknown.png
JustinXenyx#8854: Nvidia and AMD call them Dynamic Super Resolution and Virtual Super Resolution
Alcyone#2233: i googled it
JustinXenyx#8854: the fuck
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: im surprised
Alcyone#2233: for less jaggies I guess. it renders say 4 pixels then downsamples it to 1 pixel
JustinXenyx#8854: so DLSS has even less to do with actual Supersampling |
JustinXenyx#8854: Because DLSS is doing quite literally the opposite
Alcyone#2233: yeah dlss is like reverse ssaa
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ~~theres gotta be a catch no way i was right~~
JustinXenyx#8854: well yeah your explanation was bullshit
FantaStick#8008: SSAA: Your pc can do 4k but you play at 1080p
JustinXenyx#8854: you explained DLSS when referring to down/supersampling
FantaStick#8008: DLSS: Your pc can do 1080p, but you're forcing it to do 4k
Alcyone#2233: I think DLSS works like normal SSAA but it doesnt render the entire image instead it uses AI to fill in some portions
JustinXenyx#8854: Nah DLSS quite literally takes a lower resolution image and does deep learning/AI upscaling
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: @JustinXenyx idk i find my explenation perfectly fine i said 4 pixles into one and dlss is half res upscaled by ai
JustinXenyx#8854: You LITERALLY SAID THE OPPOSITE
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: > ^yea so if u have for example 100 pixels ( for example) and u wanna ***upscale to 400 pixels , each pixel would be "showing 4 pixels" which does look better than your normal res and reduces aliasing a hell lot***, but doesnt look as good as native but it comes with a ***huge performance hit*** dlss (the new nvidia feature) does super sampling by ai , it renders the image at like ***half res but upscales it using tencor cores*** , ( d.l.s.s. deep learning supersampling) which helps u get higher resolutions with a minamal fps imapct or higher fps at same res

Alcyone#2233: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/757663574440018002/unknown.png |
Alcyone#2233: I guess it can work with super sampling or multiple frames at the native res
JustinXenyx#8854: "yea so if u have for example 100 pixels ( for example) and u wanna upscale to 400 pixels , each pixel would be "showing 4 pixels" this literally contradicts itself
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: no
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: > cause it umm compresses? idk the work im looking for , the higher res into less pixles so now it looks better
JustinXenyx#8854: you said upscale
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: 4 into 1
JustinXenyx#8854: so it contradicts itself
JustinXenyx#8854: you said 1 into 4
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: no
JustinXenyx#8854: "each pixel would be "showing 4 pixels"" quite literally yes
JustinXenyx#8854: if you don't know how to properly try to say what you mean, just try to google the translations instead of using the wrong words and then ending up with this confusion
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: yes each pixel is still 1 pixel but showing 4 , like those 4 pixles are compressed into 1

Justifyy#6223: Oh okay ty
Muse#0557: @the aggresive toilet flusher Its the information and context from 4 pixels combined with AI to determine what that thing should look like and then doing the best job to interpret it with a single pixel
the aggresive toilet flusher#1414: ~~but then dlss renders lower res then upscale it with ai to ur native so less amount of pixels its actually the oppisite like just said @Muse ~~

JustinXenyx#8854: idk where he said it, but he thinks that the SD card may be formatted for mac @Budget
Budget#8265: transmac would read that |
Budget#8265: and partition manager would say what format it is

mi3night#2562: Ok so basically my grandparents laptop turns on for half a second then turns itself off
mi3night#2562: Basically the lights will light up for half a sec and turns off
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Check the RAM?
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: @mi3night
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Maybe it's dirty or something
mi3night#2562: i fixed it
mi3night#2562: it was the SSD dead
mi3night#2562: fooking 2011 OWC meme
mi3night#2562: instead of dumping that ssd ima just sell it for like $10 on ebay to a guy that repairs SSDs
mi3night#2562: 256gb so $10 is good for the people that is interested in fixing it
JustinXenyx#8854: I wouldn't sell it you dumb ass @mi3night
JustinXenyx#8854: like, consider what data could still be on the SSD
JustinXenyx#8854: And now imagine someone being capable of recovering that data
Muse#0557: "I'm gonna let someone try steal my data for $10 bucks on ebay" -Midnight 2020 pre ban |
JustinXenyx#8854: It's not even his data, it's the data of his grandparents @Muse
Muse#0557: Even better
JustinXenyx#8854: Like imagine his grandpa had his full medical history on that drive
JustinXenyx#8854: "nah let's just sell the drive for 10 bucks, at least get some money out of that dead drive"
Muse#0557: Now he can be billed for medical care by some Russian man
Muse#0557: How swag
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: I thought you can't recover any data from a dead SSD @JustinXenyx
JustinXenyx#8854: Well you'd be devastatingly wrong
JustinXenyx#8854: At least it depends on what part of the SSD died
Muse#0557: The controller could kick the bucket
Muse#0557: The flash is still good
mi3night#2562: you're right
mi3night#2562: bin time
mi3night#2562: actually
Muse#0557: Power cycle |
mi3night#2562: i backed up their data already
Muse#0557: Then bin
mi3night#2562: sooo
Muse#0557: Actually
Muse#0557: Stick a screwdriver through it
JustinXenyx#8854: No not bin either
mi3night#2562: the data is not important as i can perform a full recovery with win10
Muse#0557: Then bin
JustinXenyx#8854: destroy it first
Muse#0557: Yes
Muse#0557: Damage
Muse#0557: CBT
mi3night#2562: my uncle has a gun
JustinXenyx#8854: nah that's overkill
JustinXenyx#8854: axe would be enough |
mi3night#2562: ok
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Use it as a target practice
mi3night#2562: also thats why kids!!!! ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR SHIT
mi3night#2562: you never know, even the most reliable ssd might just give up life some day
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Axe, or drill multiple holes through the SSD
JustinXenyx#8854: If you have a flash chip that died then the data is pretty much unrecoverable unless you can recreate the missing data (and for that the data would have to be accessible elsewhere so not a major concern). If your controller or DRAM cache died, the flash chips are still okay most of the time which means data recovery is as easy as replacing the broken DRAM cache or controller @Charlie Foxtrot
mi3night#2562: or just leave the ssd inside my box of wires that i never touched in 6 years
mi3night#2562: ofc i need a usb to idk serial interface one day
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Wait you can replace those components? TIL
mi3night#2562: i replaced their SSD with a temp HDD
mi3night#2562: they're probably crying rn cuz speed
mi3night#2562: wd blue 320gb 5400rpm
mi3night#2562: whats a good ssd @JustinXenyx
mi3night#2562: pm871?
JustinXenyx#8854: realistically, if you're going sata just get a known reliable drive |
JustinXenyx#8854: because sata drives will perform identically in 2020
mi3night#2562: They don’t do crazy things that nvme can benefit anyways
mi3night#2562: So yeah
JustinXenyx#8854: Well if NVMes work get a Kingston A2000 or something similar @mi3night
JustinXenyx#8854: the A2000 is basically same price as a sata drive
JustinXenyx#8854: while having 4x read/write
Un karr#9168: guys i have a weird problem

Un karr#9168: should be fine
Un karr#9168: also when i download a single program, goddamn onedrive syncs the desktop icon!!
MythologicalZ#3752: I dont think the 8300 has the pcie power limited, should just be 75w
MythologicalZ#3752: so in theory fine for a 1030 but its still oem 1155, might have issues posting pascal
Deleted User#0000: So it might be alright to just chuck it in? |
Deleted User#0000: And aswell as a ssd
MythologicalZ#3752: ssd will be fine, card should be alright
Deleted User#0000: Yeah I thought so, this build is gonna be cheap as chips
DarknessFalls229#2286: where you getting $80 chips?
Deleted User#0000: :FeelsBadMan:
Deleted User#0000: The build is only gonna cost $305 aud
Deleted User#0000: Which is alright
DarknessFalls229#2286: /convert 305 aud eur
Currency Converter Bot#4703: 305.0 AUD = EUR 187.39
DarknessFalls229#2286: ive seen better

DarknessFalls229#2286: i guess
Deleted User#0000: Its only for my little cousin aswell, only plays minecraft
DarknessFalls229#2286: sure its fine for some low end gaming, but the price just doesnt seem that good
Deleted User#0000: For australia, it's a good price lol |
Un karr#9168: as for the onedrive issue, what can i do about it
Deleted User#0000: Onedrive is cancer
DarknessFalls229#2286: did you google it?
Un karr#9168: yep
Un karr#9168: i tried them methods and theyall didnt work
Un karr#9168: even when i uninstall onedrive my documents shows onedrive documents not pc documents
DarknessFalls229#2286: did you try going to documents by going from your C: drive?
Un karr#9168: yes but for some reason it syncs everything there aswell
DarknessFalls229#2286: cant you configure onedrive or a folder to not sync things up?
Un karr#9168: yep but it still syncs everything
DarknessFalls229#2286: after restarting your pc and clearing whats inside the onedrive aswell?
Un karr#9168: yep tried that
DarknessFalls229#2286: no idea then

JustinXenyx#8854: @Deleted User Even if the PCIe slot had a power limit of 25 or 30W a 1030 would be fine |
Deleted User#0000: I can't tell if it's 30w or 75w
JustinXenyx#8854: Well i was saying that it doesn't matter
JustinXenyx#8854: the 1030 has been designed to run with 30W of power pretty much
FantaStick#8008: Mx150/250 vibes
Deleted User#0000: Yeah right
Deleted User#0000: @JustinXenyx if it was 75w could it support a 1650 low profile?
JustinXenyx#8854: It definitely could
JustinXenyx#8854: Now if that's a good purchase in the current time is the other question
JustinXenyx#8854: Ideally i'd try to grab a 1050Ti LP or even 1650 LP used, but a 1050Ti will be more likely to find
JustinXenyx#8854: 1650 LP new won't really be the smartest purchase due to Ampere and soon RDNA2
Deleted User#0000: I would get a used 1650 LP but no one sells them around here
Deleted User#0000: Same for 1050ti lp
Deleted User#0000: And honestly I was thinking of buying 5 or 6 of those pcs and doing them up
Deleted User#0000: Then sell them
Deleted User#0000: Also the pc is $152 aud |

D.D.M#8226: @Deleted User i think that a 1050 ti lp will be better suited as i think that the i5 will prove as a bottleneck to the 1650

Deleted User#0000: Cousin is only looking to play minecraft haha
Muse#0557: I5 well not bottleneck a 1650
Muse#0557: Unless it's a first gen
Deleted User#0000: 3470
Muse#0557: Yeh thats fine
Muse#0557: I've just tested and sold a pc with a 1060 3gb
Muse#0557: It worked great
Muse#0557: A 1060 3gb is super close to a 1650
Deleted User#0000: 3gb is shit though
Muse#0557: I don't get the hate for the 3gb
Muse#0557: I literally just said it's about as good as a 1650
Muse#0557: The gt 1030 isn't shit?
Muse#0557: That doesn't make sense mate
Deleted User#0000: 1030 is shit lol
Deleted User#0000: But it's decent for a cheap build |
D.D.M#8226: It still can slightly hold up these days
Muse#0557: The 1060 3gb isn't a shit a card it's currently like 50% less expensive than the 6gb and only 15% slower
Muse#0557: You can't say it's shit when it's literally better value
Deleted User#0000: Well where the fuck are you looking lol, all 3gb models are overpriced here
Muse#0557: It's like £95 for a 3gb and £145 for a 6gb
Muse#0557: It's not worth the extra £50
Muse#0557: You're legitimately stupid if you say otherwise
Muse#0557: Both are trounced by a rx 570 anyway but the 1060 regular is a joke value wise
BigPierogi#3368: I have a 3GB 1060
Deleted User#0000: Well I wouldn't even go with a 1060 to start off with
Deleted User#0000: I was literally about to mention the 570 lol
Muse#0557: I've never gotten the hate towards the 3gb
Muse#0557: Like the 1050 ti was always an overpriced mediocre piece of shit
Muse#0557: Yet people at it up
Deleted User#0000: Well in australia it's overpriced |
Muse#0557: The 1050 ti is so much more overpriced
Muse#0557: Always has been
Deleted User#0000: Yeah very
Muse#0557: The gap between the rx 560 and 570
Muse#0557: Was so huge
Muse#0557: That they didn't actually have a proper card to fill the largest part of the market
Muse#0557: Also the 460 was a complete meme and was close to a 750 ti
Deleted User#0000: Yeah
Deleted User#0000: After the 3000series, amd really gotta step up their game
JustinXenyx#8854: > I don't get the hate for the 3gb
@Muse it's majorly gimped and the moment you run out of RAM to compensate for the lack of VRAM you dip a solid ton in performance
JustinXenyx#8854: like, for the price difference they usually were (like 30 quid) absolutely not worth it
Muse#0557: Yeh but its always been shit on
Muse#0557: Even when 3gb was fine
JustinXenyx#8854: It's a stupid card though |
JustinXenyx#8854: Nvidia shouldn't have released it like that
Muse#0557: Atm neither 1060 is worth it imo
Deleted User#0000: Nope
Ocelot#7239: Cries in 1060
Deleted User#0000: If you already have it then it's fine
b0i#1100: is it possible to get a rasberry pi to output one chrome window's audio in hdmi and a differnt one in RCA
JustinXenyx#8854: @b0i Nope
JustinXenyx#8854: Not only is that oddly specific, but there really aren't any way to do that
Foxious#1859: I really hate people who say "uuh 1060/RX480/RX580 are obsolete pieces of shit" when they are still quite capable 1080p gamers, with my 580 i can usually crank settings way up
Foxious#1859: And yes, i still have a 1070 FE in my main pc, but the pc i have here at school is an 3570K RX 580 combo

Foxious#1859: I recommend upgrading to a 1070 or 1080 |
Foxious#1859: both still brilliant

Foxious#1859: but a GTX 1080ti founders edition
Foxious#1859: that being said, i would love to have all of the aluminium blower GTX/Titan founders edition cards, all the way from the 700 series

JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, but it would be stupid to buy one new

wiryfuture🦀#1706: intel doesn't host bios for those anymore
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I had to burn a DVD to recover the bios
Deleted User#0000: Im not keeping it for myself lol, just planning to buy cheap optiplexes, upgrading them and selling them
wiryfuture🦀#1706: eh
wiryfuture🦀#1706: just be careful when upgrading the bios
wiryfuture🦀#1706: you have to find them on dodgy websites and try them out and hope it works
wiryfuture🦀#1706: recovery feels very hit and miss imo
Deleted User#0000: Ok I'm pretty sure the motherboard is matx
Deleted User#0000: I can build this for $587.92: i7 2600, 8gb ram, rx 570, 500w psu 128gb ssd, 500gb hdd, deep cool case and 3 rgb fans
Deleted User#0000: Good price?
Alcyone#2233: I think thats a lot of money for a sandy system |
Deleted User#0000: Its AUD*
Alcyone#2233: I don't know the market there. I would also look into haswell cpus, they are much faster
Deleted User#0000: Australian prices are cancer
Deleted User#0000: $587.92 for that is considered almost a steal lol
Deleted User#0000: Most of the parts are new though
Muse#0557: Seeing tech yes city tells me that's still not a good price
Muse#0557: Rgb fans, 500gb hdd and 120gb ssds are worth pocket change
Muse#0557: We don't know the quality of a the 500w
Muse#0557: But like I can't see it being worth more 400 even aud

Muse#0557: No time soon tho
FantaStick#8008: if i were to reasonably do warranties, id need to overcharge ever so slightly, and i would need a business partner
FantaStick#8008: litteraly would just need a second set of hands to build and fix systems and track serial numbers
FantaStick#8008: and purchase more stock, etc.
Muse#0557: Shipping in the UK is really reasonable compared to us

Megalink#9827: Good PC build?
Megalink#9827: I made this quick for a friend
JustinXenyx#8854: RAM is expensive, the motherboard is also rather pricy and you shouldn't build a PC in the next 2 months anyway
JustinXenyx#8854: RDNA2 might get mad competitive
JustinXenyx#8854: > RAM is expensive, the motherboard is also rather pricy and you shouldn't build a PC in the next 2 months anyway
Let's put it this way, aside from some components being a little pricy where they shouldn't be it's fine
Megalink#9827: My friend is very casual and really doesn't care. We went to Microcenter today to get the parts and the seller didn't like what I had for parts, and legit gave my friend more expensive reccomended parts.
Megalink#9827: Oh and added a 1660 as the graphics card instead
JustinXenyx#8854: "My friend is very casual and really doesn't care" That's not really a good excuse for impatience to be honest
Megalink#9827: Well that's what he's been telling me
Megalink#9827: Didn't even buy anything today cause his card had a limit so I got more time to get him something even better
JustinXenyx#8854: another thing i'd like to add, 860 Evos are rather pricy and cheaper SATA SSDs will perform exactly the same (we're at a SATA performance limit right now)
JustinXenyx#8854: Just make sure you get one with a DRAM cache and no QLC |
JustinXenyx#8854: And avoid any SSDs with a Phison S11 controller, but those should be way below the intended price range anyway
Megalink#9827: I'm honestly glad my friend didn't buy what the seller was offering him
Megalink#9827: Parts were twice as much as what I was even showing him
Megalink#9827: And he just wants it for gaming and streaming
Megalink#9827: Friend told me to not worry about it when I told him I was kinda sketch on the parts the seller was reccomending as well.

I want to spend the least possible https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/d/laptops-by-specs?sort=sortBy¤tResultsLayoutType=grid&visibleDatas=facet_ScreenSize%3AScreen%20Size%3A15%27%27%3Bfacet_ScreenResolution%3AScreen%20Resolution%3A1920%20x%201080%20FHD%3Bfacet_Memory%3AMemory%3A8%20GB%3Bfacet_Price%3APrice%3A%24800-%24999.99%3Bfacet_Price%3APrice%3A%24500-%24799.99
Gamefreak924#5901: you get bonus points if you can help find me a laptop that has a DVD drive and meets decent spec criteria lol
Gamefreak924#5901: I'm looking for decent battery life, discrete graphics, not too heavy, 15" LCD, and a numpad
Muse#0557: If you spend 800 bucks on a laptop that's 2 years old because it has a dvd drive hope is lost
Muse#0557: Just craay a slim USB player in the laptop bag |
Muse#0557: Please for the love of good
Gamefreak924#5901: that's why I said bonus points
Gamefreak924#5901: I know it's a stretch these days to find one, but I must meet the other criteria
Muse#0557: Some the options on there are confusing
Muse#0557: Why are lenovo showing a 8265u system
Muse#0557: Next to a 1650 ti system
Gamefreak924#5901: I wouldn't know.
Muse#0557: @Sony PS-FL77 What laptop do you have
Muse#0557: https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ideapad/ideapad-gaming-laptops/IdeaPad-Gaming-3i-15%E2%80%9D/p/81Y4001JUS
Muse#0557: This doesn't look too too awful
Gamefreak924#5901: uhhh wrong ping?
Muse#0557: No
Muse#0557: She keeps fanboying how good the specs are for the money
Muse#0557: Expect an Asus employee level endorsement when she replies
Gamefreak924#5901: oop alrighty |
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Make sure that Lenovo has two slots for the RAM
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: And good fan control
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: And good cooling
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Meaning not 1 heat pipe shared between the CPU and GPU
Gamefreak924#5901: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/760327600870129694/lenovo-ideapad-gaming-3i-15-fans-01.jpg
Gamefreak924#5901: apparently this is the cooling
Gamefreak924#5901: and it appears to have two ram slots
Gamefreak924#5901: only things I don't like is the placement of the arrow keys and no right-click key, but that's just minor nitpicks
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: What about the battery life?
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: That's a pretty small battery
Gamefreak924#5901: "The 45Wh battery in the Gaming 3i is relatively small, but the GPUs on offer don't pull as much power as the high-end RTX cards that make up our list of the best graphics cards. In PCMark 10's Gaming rundown test, the battery lasted one hour and five minutes with display brightness at about 80%. That doesn't seem like much (and it's not), but keep in mind the Legion 5i 15 managed just 46 minutes with display brightness at 50%.
Fast charge is available, and you can expect most of a charge in only about 45 minutes. Using it for an indie title like Neon Abyss, the battery lasted closer to about two hours before asking for the 135W AC adapter.
I tested again with PCMark 10's Modern Office rundown, and the battery lasted four hours and 49 minutes. If you need to split time on this laptop between gaming and productivity, it should fare well compared to a lot of other gaming hardware." |
mi3night#2562: @Gamefreak924 you want a laptop?
mi3night#2562: What country
mi3night#2562: And budget
mi3night#2562: Also Lenovo is meh
Gamefreak924#5901: well yeah. US. And nothing over $850 at the absolute max. I'd prefer to stay under $800
mi3night#2562: Used or new
Gamefreak924#5901: I'd like new but I can go with open-box or higher-end refurb
mi3night#2562: Do you need discrete gpu
Gamefreak924#5901: not used preferably. I've seen some gross stuff with used laptops
mi3night#2562: What discrete gpu do u need
mi3night#2562: Because if you’re gaming anything heavy avoid ultrabooks
Gamefreak924#5901: and yes, I would need it because it's for game development. I'll be using programs like Maya and Unity
mi3night#2562: Ok this option is tempting but >Navi
mi3night#2562: Dell g5 SE
mi3night#2562: R5 4600h 5600m for $800 |
Gamefreak924#5901: 4600???
mi3night#2562: Ryzen 5
Gamefreak924#5901: ohhhh R5
mi3night#2562: This is ur first option
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: No nono
mi3night#2562: Why not
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Do not buy that Dell
mi3night#2562: Navi?
mi3night#2562: My friend has a g7 8750h 1060
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: It's a literal dumpster fire
mi3night#2562: How
mi3night#2562: U had one
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Look at Yt
mi3night#2562: I literally used one irl
mi3night#2562: >YT |
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: It overheats a lot
mi3night#2562: Cuz it’s thin
mi3night#2562: Dude
mi3night#2562: Lenovo ideapad overheats too
mi3night#2562: :orange:
Gamefreak924#5901: :/
mi3night#2562: @Gamefreak924 check out hp omen
mi3night#2562: They’re pretty decent too
mi3night#2562: Lenovo is meh
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: And the GPU performs worse than NVIDIA GPUs with same or lower wattage
mi3night#2562: I wouldn’t buy Lenovo
mi3night#2562: What?
mi3night#2562: 5300m>1650
mi3night#2562: 5600m is like 1660ti
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Hmmm |
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Well maybe not that
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: But still AMD drivers are going to be a headache
mi3night#2562: Yeah that’s why it’s a meh buy
mi3night#2562: Hp omen is next
mi3night#2562: @Gamefreak924 do you care about the weight and build quality
mi3night#2562: Also for game development. What type of game
Gamefreak924#5901: yes, I want portability. Less than 5 lbs
mi3night#2562: Damn
Gamefreak924#5901: 3D
mi3night#2562: Unreal 3D or lighter
Gamefreak924#5901: Omen's are expensive last time I checked
mi3night#2562: There is refirb ones
Muse#0557: Some omens are good value
Muse#0557: All the staff in my college got open box ones
Gamefreak924#5901: Unity 3D, possibly Unreal in the future, Maya stuff |
mi3night#2562: Dell xps comes to mind for being portable and have good graphics but the price is .....
mi3night#2562: Let’s say MacBook level
Gamefreak924#5901: XPS and Precisions are out if you ask me
Gamefreak924#5901: gotta stay under $900 after tax
Gamefreak924#5901: I don't want to break the bank on this
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: What about Acer Nitro?
mi3night#2562: it's too thick and heavy
Gamefreak924#5901: ^
mi3night#2562: i forgot nitro was a thing lmfao
mi3night#2562: i mean dell xps 15 9570 is a godly machine but theyre like used
mi3night#2562: theyre light, VERY good screen, good trackpad, good build quality
mi3night#2562: 8750h and 1050ti
mi3night#2562: and VERY good battery life
mi3night#2562: for like $900
mi3night#2562: but |
mi3night#2562: used
Muse#0557: That's not good value lmfao
mi3night#2562: for a ultra book
mi3night#2562: it's pretty good
Muse#0557: For thinks
Muse#0557: Oh ill pay double
Muse#0557: Because its thinner
mi3night#2562: if im buying a laptop to use i would stay away from acer tbh because im picky when it comes to build quality
Gamefreak924#5901: Here again is what I need:
Purpose: Game development mainly
Applications: Maya, Unity, Visual Studio, GIMP, Davinci Resolve
Price: $850 before tax (preferably under $800 if possible)
Etc: Under 5lbs, discrete gpu, FHD 15", numpad, decent battery life
mi3night#2562: and new
mi3night#2562: or refirb |
Gamefreak924#5901: yeh
Muse#0557: Viviobook seems like the best option
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: > if im buying a laptop to use i would stay away from acer tbh because im picky when it comes to build quality
@mi3night I have a Predator and it has served me very well
Muse#0557: Ellie got a I7 10750h 16gb ram and 1650ti for under 1k
Muse#0557: If you dropped down to an i5
mi3night#2562: @Charlie Foxtrot good
Muse#0557: Should be in budget
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Though most of it is made out of plastic
mi3night#2562: dude
mi3night#2562: he paid $1420
mi3night#2562: :laughbounce:
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: He?
mi3night#2562: or she
mi3night#2562: idk |
mi3night#2562: they
mi3night#2562: them
mi3night#2562: that
mi3night#2562: @TheFifthAce yo lord help.

mi3night#2562: abstract is pretty experienced in that category
mi3night#2562: also
mi3night#2562: stay away from razer blade
mi3night#2562: they're like macbooks with a good dgpu and better cooling
mi3night#2562: actually razer blade is more xps than macbooks
mi3night#2562: @Gamefreak924 you're using this for work right |
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Razer has poor quality control IIRC
mi3night#2562: ^
mi3night#2562: cough
mi3night#2562: macbooks
mi3night#2562: cough
Gamefreak924#5901: eventually I may use it for work, but right now it's for hobby purposes in a sense
mi3night#2562: even tho non of my macbooks died on me in the past 5 years
mi3night#2562: cough
Muse#0557: Ngl
Muse#0557: Xps
Muse#0557: Macbook
Muse#0557: Razer
mi3night#2562: :deadass:
Muse#0557: All irrelevant to his price point
Muse#0557: 🙏 |
mi3night#2562: i mean!
mi3night#2562: if
mi3night#2562: idk
Muse#0557: They hold value too well
mi3night#2562: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
mi3night#2562: except for XPS
Gamefreak924#5901: I have a decent desktop at home so I just need something that will work good enough when away from home on random days
Muse#0557: Xps holds value
Muse#0557: It's still like 500 bucks for a 2015 xps with 8gb Ram and a dual core I5
mi3night#2562: actually ur right
Muse#0557: Lmao
mi3night#2562: macbooks are better
TheFifthAce#4128: > @TheFifthAce yo lord help.
@mi3night ?
TheFifthAce#4128: I didnt read |
TheFifthAce#4128: lol

mi3night#2562: buying a clevo am4 laptop
mi3night#2562: :woagbounce:
mi3night#2562: r9 3950x in ur laptop with a 2080 super
mi3night#2562: with $2500 missing from ur bank account
mi3night#2562: not related to the subject
Muse#0557: Game freak if you can upgrade the ram on this instead of listening to midnight be unfunny it's a steal |
Muse#0557: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-IPS-Type-GeForce-Gigabit-FA506IH-AS53/dp/B0865THZCL/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=gtx+1650+laptop&qid=1601348177&sprefix=Gtx+1650&sr=8-6
mi3night#2562: muse

mi3night#2562: kiss
Muse#0557: :bosnianangry:
mi3night#2562: ur right but
mi3night#2562: u heard the news
mi3night#2562: asus blocking off vents
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Bad screen and cooling
Gamefreak924#5901: hmm
mi3night#2562: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJS-ZAmcreI
mi3night#2562: @Gamefreak924 drill some holes
mi3night#2562: :yikes:
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: > r9 3950x in ur laptop with a 2080 super
@mi3night Can't even have anything above 2070 because there're not enough PCIe lanes LMAO |
Gamefreak924#5901: T___T
mi3night#2562: sad!
mi3night#2562: really?
Gamefreak924#5901: (gonna change my name real quick)
mi3night#2562: muse mish and mush and moosh
mi3night#2562: moosh
Muse#0557: Wdym bad screen
Muse#0557: Unless you're doing colour accurate work
mi3night#2562: @Charlie Foxtrot https://clevo-computer.com/en/laptops-configurator/purpose/multimedia-and-entertainment/3995/clevo-nh55afw-amd-ryzen-am4-desktop-processor-nvidia-rtx-2070 not the current topic but is this :simp: sexy
Muse#0557: It like doesn't matter
mi3night#2562: just drill some holes
mi3night#2562: so it dont throttle
Muse#0557: I would ngl
mi3night#2562: it's plastic
mi3night#2562: it's not metal |
mi3night#2562: shouldn't be too hard
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Yep
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: The chadian of all laptops
Muse#0557: Warranty though
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: More worthy of midnight's kiss than muse
Gamefreak924#5901: I'm gonna end up getting the Lenovo at this rate
mi3night#2562: Lenovo Legion 5 (AMD) 4600H + GTX 1650Ti
mi3night#2562: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Lenovo-Legion-5-AMD-Ryzen-R5-GTX-1650Ti-8GB-256GB-1TB-Gaming-Laptop/627433588
mi3night#2562: ungrade the ram
mi3night#2562: but!!!
mi3night#2562: @Gamefreak924
mi3night#2562: 5.5 pounds
mi3night#2562: sad
mi3night#2562: 0.5 pounds over your limit!!!
mi3night#2562: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSsd-6xjHfw&t=212s |
mi3night#2562: heres a review
Muse#0557: It's only heavy because boy look at that cooling
Gamefreak924#5901: yeah I need portability. I hate lugging around a lot of stuff, and I'll already be carrying around a mouse and external optical drive when I need it
Gamefreak924#5901: plus the power adapter
mi3night#2562: but
mi3night#2562: it's pretty good
mi3night#2562: 5.5 pounds aint that bad
Gamefreak924#5901: no buts
mi3night#2562: for a gaming laptop it's usually 7
Gamefreak924#5901: 5.5 turns into 6 with everything else
mi3night#2562: take out the hard drive
mi3night#2562: it's gonna be like 5.2
mi3night#2562: or 5.1
mi3night#2562: also for the price the cooling is pretty good
mi3night#2562: you dont need much to cool ryzen anyways |
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Ryzen is very efficient
Muse#0557: It's legit only heavier because its got a HDD and beefy heatsink
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: > @mi3night Can't even have anything above 2070 because there're not enough PCIe lanes LMAO
Let me see if I can find the article on that
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Wait
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-s-Ryzen-4000H-APUs-limited-to-only-8-PCIe-3-0-lanes-for-dGPUs-A-non-issue-mostly-even-for-dGPUs-above-an-RTX-2060.482722.0.html
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: This one said it's because they want to keep the price low
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: Hmmm
Sony PS-FL77#3627: Asus Vivobook 15 2020
https://www.asus.com/Laptops/ASUS-VivoBook-15-X571LI/specifications/
@Muse
mi3night#2562: https://www.newegg.com/star-black-asus-vivobook-k571-k571li-pb71-gaming-entertainment/p/N82E16834235548?item=N82E16834235548&nm_mc=knc-googleadwords&cm_mmc=knc-googleadwords-_-gaming%20laptops-_-asus-_-34235548&source=region
mi3night#2562: this is pretty good
mi3night#2562: @Gamefreak924
mi3night#2562: but |
mi3night#2562: it's over budget
mi3night#2562: asus vivobooks have pretty good displays i heard
mi3night#2562: It also comes with a hdd while being under 5 pounds
mi3night#2562: This is 4.72 pounds
mi3night#2562: The only downside is that it’s Asus so shit thermals, horrible customer support, and reliability issue is somewhere in the air
mi3night#2562: And build quality is like :lmaolmaolmao:
Lady Mipha#0611: :Hahahahaha:
Gamefreak924#5901: Boyo
JustinXenyx#8854: People that still sketch over PCIe lanes (especially in a laptop) should just come to terms with reality
JustinXenyx#8854: The performance loss of single digit percentages with 8 PCIe 3.0 lanes is far less than the performance loss these idiots constantly have because of cucked power restrictions or cooling limits
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: But why aren't they pairing it with a 2080 and above?
mi3night#2562: 2080 super laptops exists @Charlie Foxtrot
mi3night#2562: But they never bother putting top of the line gpus into laptops
mi3night#2562: There’s never a 1080ti laptop
mi3night#2562: Nor a 980ti laptop |
mi3night#2562: It’s manly down to the power draw if I can guess
mi3night#2562: Pcie 3.0 exists when 1080ti released but they never bothered with 1080ti laptops
Un karr#9168: ik this might be a simple question but whats the best way i can upgrade my optiplex 960 with a core 2 duo, 4gb of ram , and a slow 320gb hard drive
Un karr#9168: i currently have 40 pounds to spend on it and i think i have a ssd lying around somewhere
vegetal#8870: core 2 quad, 8gb ram
mi3night#2562: @Un karr save up £20 more so you can get i5 2400 8gb and a h61 board
mi3night#2562: Contact @Muse he’s good at 🇬🇧 markets
Un karr#9168: well the problem is i want to work with what i have and i dont live in uk, but i can import stuff
Un karr#9168: im trying to make a spare pc for my dads buisness and at the moment, the dell runs quite slow
mi3night#2562: I would say get a 128/256gb ssd if you can’t afford a i5 2400 just yet @Un karr
mi3night#2562: Even in c2d systems. Ssd helps A LOT
Un karr#9168: ok, and should i upgrade the ram?
mi3night#2562: Check with ur manual
mi3night#2562: A lot of c2d pc don’t work with 8gb of ram
mi3night#2562: But your local step is to either get i5 2400 with 8gb of ddr3 |
mi3night#2562: Getting a c2q is like putting a bandit on the situation rn
Un karr#9168: ok thanks man, i checked the manual and thankfully it can support up to 16gb of ram with a bios update
mi3night#2562: Oh damn
mi3night#2562: If u need ram do that
Un karr#9168: k thanks for th help
Al Juboori A#6408: good afternoon. Prior to the 3k series launch announcement I had asked for a build that's approximately 1k euros for my nephew and i got some help and was linked this build: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/FGXh4n
Al Juboori A#6408: Is this still the best I can get for that price tag given that gpu prices have fallen after the 3k release?
Un karr#9168: you can probably get better prices elsewhere as the 1660 should be much cheaper now
Un karr#9168: id say go for a rtx2060 as its a bit more but the performance is much more significant
mi3night#2562: @Al Juboori A that’s still pretty high for a 1660s. You should probably get a temporary gpu first like a used 580 then buy a 2660 tier card when that come out
Justifyy#6223: im having a debate of getting a i7 4770k now or save up and get a i7 7700k
Justifyy#6223: idk which one to get
Muse#0557: Neither
Muse#0557: Stop being an intel fanboy lmao
Justifyy#6223: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
mi3night#2562: Get ryzen
mi3night#2562: Ryzen 5 3600 is the way to go
mi3night#2562: For the price of 7700k why
mi3night#2562: You’re paying $260 for r3 3100/i3 10100 performance @Justifyy
mi3night#2562: You’re spending almost 3700x/10600k price to get a i3/r3 perf
mi3night#2562: It’s not healthy
Muse#0557: Healthy
Muse#0557: Calm down pal
Justifyy#6223: yeah true
Justifyy#6223: wait does the 7700k have 4c 8t right?
Justifyy#6223: and how many c&t's does the r5 3600 have
Muse#0557: 6c12t
Muse#0557: Boosts upto 4.2ghz
Justifyy#6223: guess im switching to ryzen then
MythologicalZ#3752: It's slower than the 3600 too, basically 8700k performance on the r5 |
MythologicalZ#3752: And unless you coffee mod you won't have any upgrade path
FantaStick#8008: Wouldnt run and buy anything right now, I'd wait and see what amd brings to us on october 8th
JustinXenyx#8854: ideally you'd buy used yeah, Zen 3 might be a big kick
FantaStick#8008: Might be a big lift yeah, we've only seen one benchmark and I'm taking it with a huge grain of salt but it looks like it's roughly 25% faster than zen2
FantaStick#8008: Given early claims about 15-17% IPC uplift and roughly 10% clockspeed increase (more like 5-7%) it seems within the realm of possibility
mi3night#2562: Or wait for zen3 to come out and wait for zen2 price to go down
mi3night#2562: R5 3600 be looking hot when it’s $120
FantaStick#8008: I hope 3700x follows 2700x pricing so I can go to microcenter and pick them up new in box for 130 a peice
mi3night#2562: I doubt that low
Muse#0557: @Alcyone Does this board support 3rd gen i5s? Intel seemed to have removed bios updates
Muse#0557: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/50092/intel-desktop-board-dh67cf.html
Alcyone#2233: if you could find the bios, yes. but intel removed all the bios files for ref boards from their site
Muse#0557: that is
Muse#0557: dog bollocks
Alcyone#2233: i know |
Muse#0557: did they atleast give people warning?
Lady Mipha#0611: nope
Muse#0557: Bruh
Muse#0557: Gonna have to use stinky sandy that does sell as well
Muse#0557: https://drivers.softpedia.com/get/BIOS/Intel/Intel-DH67CF-Desktop-Board-BIOS-0163.shtml
Muse#0557: Umm this seems to be the latest one
Muse#0557: Does it support ivy?
Muse#0557: @Alcyone
MythologicalZ#3752: yeah has ivy support
MythologicalZ#3752: https://compatibleproducts.intel.com/ProductDetails?activeModule=Desktop%20Boards&mthbrd_nm=dh67cf
MythologicalZ#3752: real weird list though, I doubt any missing cpus are locked out
Muse#0557: Ty cheif honestly intel and amd are absolutely wank at properly showing stuff
Muse#0557: Amd are even worse like you gotta rely on other sites to find out info about most of their stuff
Alcyone#2233: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005859/boards-and-kits/desktop-boards.html
Alcyone#2233: do you have a 2nd gen cpu to flash it with? |
Alcyone#2233: or ch341a
Muse#0557: Ive got a bunch of 2nd gens yeh
Alcyone#2233: also has to be this version or higher https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/760958545624825916/unknown.png
Alcyone#2233: That chart is a mess. So it looks like if the board is a compatible version but on bios before 0132 you have to flash that first, then you can flash any bios 0151 or later. If it doesn't update intel me to 8.x you have to use recovery method. I maybe just would from the start.
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005630/boards-and-kits.html
Muse#0557: Im lost
Muse#0557: Ill look tomorrow what update i have
Muse#0557: Its too late to get into this mess
mi3night#2562: @Gamefreak924 I kinda want this now idk https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/760973874857902160/image0.png
Muse#0557: thats pretty hawt
Gamefreak924#5901: 9570 is alright
Gamefreak924#5901: I've seen a few come in where I work
wiryfuture🦀#1706: @Muse intel desktop board is absolute wank
wiryfuture🦀#1706: spare yourself of that shit
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I had to use like 6 different versions of the file to flash an update for the bios on the one I had and it needed a DVD for recovery because the early bios versions don't support USB recovery even though it's mentioned in the bios |
Muse#0557: I like need to do it
wiryfuture🦀#1706: what mobo you got
wiryfuture🦀#1706: nevermind
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I was gonna link you to where I found the bios that worked for my board because they had a couple but I lost it
Alcyone#2233: did you find out which AA and bios version that intel board is @Muse ?
Muse#0557: Havent had the chance yet
Tinybox#9112: yoo is an RX 480 4Gb (MXM) worth it for 100 euros?
JustinXenyx#8854: MXM usually comes with quite the premium, so 100€ is more than fair @Tinybox
JustinXenyx#8854: but i'd check cooler compatibility
JustinXenyx#8854: MXM cooler holes aren't standardized
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx ight
MattyD242#3217: > yoo is an RX 480 4Gb (MXM) worth it for 100 euros?
@Tinybox noooo! You can buy a brand new 580 with 8gb for similar price, it’s the same chip just tuned to a slightly higher clock
MattyD242#3217: Not worth buying a card with 4gb vram tbh
Xbox 360 1953#2640: Mxm tho |
BigPierogi#3368: Mxm
BigPierogi#3368: Yum
DarknessFalls229#2286: Mmmmmmyes mxm
JustinXenyx#8854: @MattyD242 MXM you big dingo
JustinXenyx#8854: Mobile PCB
JustinXenyx#8854: And those come with a **huge** premium quite often
JustinXenyx#8854: So the 100€ price is a bargain actually
Tinybox#9112: weewoo The Chad had me there for a minute "rx 580 8gb mxm where? cheaper? similar?"
JustinXenyx#8854: also, keep in mind that it's GB and not Gb @Tinybox
JustinXenyx#8854: Gb is Gigabit and 4 Gigabit equals to half a Gigabyte
MattyD242#3217: Done been told :Oof:
mi3night#2562: @Tinybox is it labeled as rx480 or some Radeon pro w5170x some shit like that
mi3night#2562: I never actually run across a rx480 mxm
MythologicalZ#3752: mxm 480 exists
MythologicalZ#3752: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/761332725704949811/s-l1600.png |
mi3night#2562: Interesting
mi3night#2562: Tbf
Muse#0557: Mxm gtx 480
Muse#0557: Best card
mi3night#2562: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/761333331534282772/image0.png
mi3night#2562: Jesus
Lady Mipha#0611: oh yeah they don’t come cheap
Tinybox#9112: @mi3night looks exactly and is labeled just like myth sent
mi3night#2562: @Tinybox what laptop u got
Tinybox#9112: Also, quick question.
If you had the option to get one of those 3 Laptops:
I7 5750HQ + 940m; 2.5kg
An 8th gen I7 no gpu 1.5kg-2kg
Or a 3KG older Workstation with a 2nd gen i7, +Mxm rx 480
Need to take it 30min to school every day |
(My macbook died and dead tired into investing to repair it again)
Tinybox#9112: Which one would you take?
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: What do you use it for?
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: If you need heavy rendering, CAD and whatnot then hands down the older workstation
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: If for taking notes and basic work then the 8th gen i7
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: If you plan on doing light Photoshop or video editing then pick the i7 5750HQ and 940M laptop
Tinybox#9112: @Charlie Foxtrot
some CAD, and programming.
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: And you want to use the laptop for 30 mins or a few hours?
Tinybox#9112: I expect at least 2 hour usage without having to charge.
(As of recently I mostly use dem Laptops to program microcontrollers tho)
Tinybox#9112: @MythologicalZ what would you take?
MythologicalZ#3752: definitely not the mxm one
MythologicalZ#3752: probably 940 and broadwell
Tinybox#9112: alr. |
Can I know why you wouldnt pick the mxm one?
Battery life right?
DarknessFalls229#2286: the RX 480 MXM is nice, but the sheer age of the rest of the laptop is the because
MythologicalZ#3752: no, big sandy is still fine
MythologicalZ#3752: battery is my concern
Tinybox#9112: The laptop im looking at rn, Originally had a Quadro 2000M.
About the battery I'd probably just replace that anyway.
Tinybox#9112: Im not sure how long it would last with an rx 480m but the consumption is roughly similar
Tinybox#9112: I think
Tinybox#9112: Quadro 2000m= gtx 460m
DarknessFalls229#2286: then, if youre not really worried about the age of sandy bridge and compatability of the rx 480 then sure
Tinybox#9112: yea compatibility thats my biggest worry
Tinybox#9112: I heard mxm mounting isnt standardized?
DarknessFalls229#2286: worse case, you can probably sell the rx 480 for a profit
Tinybox#9112: Prolly yea |
Miljan#7510: Hey my dudes, there's an untested 1080Ti for 60€. What's your opinion, should I buy it?
Miljan#7510: 60€ is not much and if it works I can sell it for 350€+, if not then too bad
DarknessFalls229#2286: depends on if you want to risk a 60 euro loss
DarknessFalls229#2286: cause people can lie of it being ""untested""
FantaStick#8008: Broken 1080tis sell for more than 60€ on eBay so I'd go for it
FantaStick#8008: Either way you profit
DarknessFalls229#2286: well, after he tests it its no longer untested
DarknessFalls229#2286: its either defective or working
FantaStick#8008: Yes
FantaStick#8008: I said broken
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, somehow read over that
Miljan#7510: I think I'll go for it then
DarknessFalls229#2286: keep us posted
DarknessFalls229#2286: (perhaps also check if theres any physical damage)
Miljan#7510: Will do, it doesn't look like there's any |
FantaStick#8008: Yeah for instance my 1080ti with some crashing issues still sold for 250$
FantaStick#8008: Sometimes you list what the problem is and someone who knows how to fix that issues goes stonks
DarknessFalls229#2286: damn, nowadays you can get working used 1080ti's for that price
FantaStick#8008: This was only a month ago
DarknessFalls229#2286: ah yes, before the RTX 3000 launch
FantaStick#8008: Yeah like a few days
FantaStick#8008: Probably helped that it was a zotac 1080ti mini
FantaStick#8008: Still the best mitx card on the market
Miljan#7510: I got a working 1080 for 300 a year and a half ago
FantaStick#8008: People really look for that card
Miljan#7510: This broken one is a zotac as well
Miljan#7510: The 3 fan one tho
Miljan#7510: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/761543223071604756/IMG-29ff37e993128bdf25d9b344d50f4667-V.jpg,https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/761543223885430794/IMG-83e464814b3af1fc7f74b5d4b51850d8-V.jpg
Miljan#7510: Is the power boost thingy scratched a bit or is that the design?
DarknessFalls229#2286: its not the design |
DarknessFalls229#2286: but it shouldnt really matter as its just a bypass of the VRM to the die
DarknessFalls229#2286: so basicly a solid chunk of metal
Miljan#7510: Ah, okay then
Miljan#7510: I mean it looks fine, not too dirty no dings or anything
DarknessFalls229#2286: also hasnt been dissassembled either
Miljan#7510: Oh yeah it has that sticker
Charlie Foxtrot#9831: @Tinybox Can you tell us what's the laptop model?
Foxious#1859: Is this bit of paste a problem, please answer with a @Foxious https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/761554254522744839/20201002_144242.jpg
DarknessFalls229#2286: @Foxious if its non-conductive no, otherwise yes. either way, use a brush
Foxious#1859: Damn
Foxious#1859: Dont have one
DarknessFalls229#2286: you dont brush yer teeth?
Foxious#1859: Yes but dont want to use that
Foxious#1859: I habe lost my cleaning tooth brush
Foxious#1859: Ech |
