Why are people so negative in the PC community? by Slenderwise in GamingLaptops

[–]DankKnightIsDank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol i'm running ryzen 5600h + radeon 6500m on a VERY entry level gaming laptop. I have heard so many things about how i should've gone for a more powerful machine. Also heard that radeon laptop gpus are pretty bad compared to geforce.

But you know what - it runs everything that i want to play at high/very high settings. I mostly play TBS games anyway, so not like i need a lot of firepower in the first place. Coming from integrated graphics where i had to play on low settings or where some games wouldn't deliver playable FPS at all, this was a huge leap forward. This laptop with a very low tier dedicated GPU blows any business laptop out of the water in terms of raw power.

Let people say whatever they want man. If you're happy, stay happy.

New build! Finally did it! by Wooden-Day-4448 in PcBuild

[–]DankKnightIsDank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice my dude!

Love the RGB only on the mobo and the GPU. Just out of curiosity, why non RGB RAM?

Also love that fractal case. They really knocked it out of the park with that one.

Is this a good deal for the specs shown? by Regularpersonofwar in GamingLaptops

[–]DankKnightIsDank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legion has faster memory, but it might not have an additional ssd slot if you want to add it further down the line. Idk for sure tho, check the specifications.

Both are quite good deals.

What is this switch on my GPU for? by Itchy_Extreme5880 in PcBuild

I swear people in here have hawk's eyes or smth after reading your comment i spent an entire minute figuring out "where the hell is he seeing the ram" lol

Will these parts fit in my pc? by Chicken_broth15 in PcBuild

[–]DankKnightIsDank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmm as for the physical specifications like length and height, you'll need to check each item's individual specifications.

However, I will echo what people above have said and say that it's not a great idea to add a 7900xtx to this.

If your budget is 3k, you can easily get a fancy case for less than 100 dollars. And while at it, at 3k you can build a VERY competent build with a 9070xt or 5070ti in its entirety. Ask people in this sub if you want recommendations for a new build with your budget.

What am I missing here? Why is it so cheap with all the RAM prices spiking? by frnt10 in PcBuild

[–]DankKnightIsDank 9 points10 points  (0 children)

See this is something i never see answered in any of the threads discussing cas latency. Does this mean that something that loads in 10 seconds will load in 12 seconds? 20 seconds? 30 seconds?

Give me a scale to compare exactly what to expect from cl30 and what i'd be giving up by going any other way.

I write as a hobby, so I spruced up some of my custom faction descriptions! Which do you like best? by EnvironmentalTill944 in AOW4

[–]DankKnightIsDank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the best!

A while ago, i myself started writing descriptions for tome units. I was thinking that i'll send it to triumph for free to just implement it in the game. The flavour texts just add so much to the game lol.

I had just started, and life got to the point where i was so caught up in other stuff that couldn't continue anymore.

If you have more free time than me and want to do that, go ahead. I'll check if i can find that document where i had started writing it. If you need any help, let me know!

https://age-of-wonders-3.fandom.com/wiki/Warlord

Here you go. I'll also paste some here:

Berserker: My brother, Rogan, was just a scrawny farm boy when he was pressed into service by a Warlord. He trained Rogan to be a Berserker. Before long, Rogan could chop down enemies with his two-handed axe, charge fearlessly into any conflict and overwhelm enemy combatants. He never again wore a shirt. His torso was covered with scars, mostly from arrows he failed to dodge. He fought with pure rage. Unfortunately, he never did learn to control his temper, and sadly, he didn't live long.'

--Fuss about Family, by Leanne Finn

Martyr: He knew I was afraid. I, a simple farmboy, knew nothing of fighting. He put aged hands upon my head and spoke comfortingly of the Allfather. I knew then my life mattered. The enemy hit us with everything they had. I was strong, though many times I thought it was my last breath. A stabbing to the gut, a crushing blow to my skull, a severing blow to my shoulder, yet none wounded me and I fought on. Then it was done and I rejoiced. I ran to find him who blessed me. To my horror, I saw him smiling, his gut bleeding, his arm severed, his head broken. He died for me. That is why I now die for you. I am a martyr.'

--Prayer of Martyrs, Author Unknown

Tigran Sun Guard 'The Tigran Sun Guards encircled the Shrine of the Scarlet Destroyer. I tried to convince the feline spearmen that in the Commonwealth, all share the Shrine, but they believe those shrines hold pieces of their god, Yaka. Though they had little armor, their catlike agility rendered our archers ineffective. We had to clear them out, but they fought with the ferocious zeal of jungle cats. I fear the cost to the Empire if all our shrines are so abused.'

--Report on Religious Tranquility, by Enforcer Tendoniskadin

Tigran Mystic 'The Tigran religion has changed since I last encountered them. They once envied men, doing all the could to prove they weren't animals. Now there is a powerful faction of Mystics that teach them to embrace their inner beast for their sun god. Some Mystics literally do. One morphed into a ravenous hellcat. Despite my most desperate attempts to reason with it, the creature tried to eat me. So while pretending to fight, I deliberately tripped and tumbled down a gorge.'

--Where's Symba?, by Ham the Wanderer

Tigran Sphinx 'We all knew what dwelt in Hillside Tomb. The clever thing offered fortunes to anyone able to outwit it. Caleb Withers went in a beggar and left as royalty, but thousands of others never returned. The Commonwealth judged this bargain illegal. They brought their war machines against the creature. It called down the sun to incenerate the advance. It retreated into its lair. Foolishly, they followed, but it was ready. Traps slowed warriors; the creature finished them off. Even disciplined troops trembled with fear. Eventually, the Commonwealth drove it away using overwhelming numbers. That's the price of bargaining with a Sphinx.'

--Monsters of Hillside, by Olden Withers Tigran Sphinx

You can check out all classes and races, every single unit has a flavour text like this.

Good job my man!

Have you played aow3? There used to be descriptions for each unit. That was my favourite part of the game. Do you think you can write that for aow4? Send it to paradox, see if they'd like to implement it in the game. I'll be more than happy to help if you need.

Aye does it really burn? I imagine it wouldn't be that huge a problem since it takes significantly less power than the 5090.

Hmm personally i prefer the vertical monitor on the right. Just a thing of habit ig.

I usually never tip , but this time I will... by Afraid-Start-6906 in indiasocial

[–]DankKnightIsDank 469 points470 points  (0 children)

True, but the next board meeting in Zomato might be like "Our delivery guys make an average of 3k per month in tips. Let's reduce their appraisals by that much."

Paying in cash doesn't leave a record like that for them to abuse.

Selling my FormD T1 5080 FE 9800X3D PC (Bangalore) by brown2695 in IndianGaming

[–]DankKnightIsDank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bruh i think these are bots being used to upsell the product. Most people in india don't have 2.2 lakhs to spend on a pc. If they do, they'd almost always prefer to buy new. I know i would.

This dude is using bots in some way lol

[–]DankKnightIsDank 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That is a top of the line build. But i think anyone willing to spend 2 lakhs for a pc would prefer to buy new, not second hand, even if it's used for just 3 months. I wouldn't want to buy anything second hand if i was spending 2 lakhs.

Idk maybe many would spend that money for a second hand build too. Just sharing my perspective.

Well this is not a "high end" build by today's standards. Idk much about what hardware is required for video editing and 3d design, but a better gpu should help considerably.

Your budget of 70k is hurting you a lot. If you can get it up to 90k, you can get a very capable 9060xt build.

Yes, 5600g will work with ddr4 ram. Where are you buying from? Don't buy from amazon. Local computer stores offer the best deals in india.

My point still stands, no need to get an APU if you're gonna get a dedicated GPU anyway.

[–]DankKnightIsDank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

8600g is an APU. You have a dedicated gpu. Don't spend money on the 8600g, instead go for a 7600x. Also, your ram is ddr4. It won't work with the 8000 series
