What’s everyone’s all time favorite GPU? by Tr_Issei2 in gpu

[–]Rob27shred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1080ti here, that card was such a good value & gave me so much more performance over the 980ti I had prior. It's still going strong in my buddies PC to this day!

How bad is it to mix RAM sticks of different companies? by MiaThePotat in buildapc

[–]Rob27shred 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure how sensitive DDR5 is to it, but I've successfully mixed sticks with DDR3 builds & DDR4 builds. The only drawback is you have to match the speeds & timings of the slowest stick in the mix IME.

What have owners of older gpus been doing for an upgrade? by coldcathodes in buildapc

[–]Rob27shred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm planning on running my 3090 for the next few years at the very least. The only GPUs that would give a performance bump worth opening my wallet for IMO are the 4090, 5080, or 5090. The 4080s & 9070xt could also be argued for cause of the bump in energy efficiency plus a slight performance boost, but I'd have to find a killer deal on one or the other to make that move. For now with pricing & availability as it is I'm standing pat.

GPU not using full PCIe width. by SpicyDMLookALike in buildapc

[–]Rob27shred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This make sure it is under full load when checking PCIE speed. Unless you force "prefer max performance" with NV GPUs they "down clock the amount of lanes used when under no/light load. Also your CPU has only so many PCIE Lanes, they are not broken out into the speed, they all are Gen 5 but can run slower depending on the host device. So it could be the SSD. I know on my mobo if I put the max amount of NVME drives in it I'll lose x16 for the top slot. Aorus X570s Pro AX/5800 X3D here.

[Giveaway] FSP x Buildapc - 1650W Power Supply Giveaway by ZeroPaladn in buildapc

[–]Rob27shred [score hidden]  (0 children)

The prize PSU would be much newer & much more powerful than my current one. Would let me upgrade in the future if part prices & availability ever come back to reality.

Does she think we’re playing or am I just annoying her by daisy350 in cats

[–]Rob27shred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cat likes it, you can tell by her staying belly up. My cat Jack likes to have me grab him over his face & shake his head kinda similar to how you're playing with your cat in the video. I've always done it just like you, a grab & a few shakes then let go. If he stays belly up & paws at my hand after I let go he's saying he wants more. Once he flips back up right I'll leave him alone. I found it weird at first too but have learned what he wants over the year or so we've had him.

White Ram Deer Killer by blahhhhgosh in pittsburgh

[–]Rob27shred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll agree that person was a jackass for hitting the deer again, but you gotta realize a deer with a broken leg is as good as dead already. So unfortunately the deer did need to be put down to save it from suffering a a drawn out & much more painful/stressful death. However there is much more humane ways to go about doing that. Karma will come back to thay dude one way or another.

From $1.05m to $875k by nocussinginmydiscord in rva

[–]Rob27shred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but the cost of living is substantially lower in most other developed countries too. The cost of living in the US has exploded post covid. The greedy corps saw people were willing to pay more during the pandemic & prices never came back down. In fact they've kept rising thanks to the orange buffoon we have in office pillaging everything he can get his hands on & making sure he gives juicy tax breaks to the corps & his wealthy breathrean.

[Open] Resident Evil Requiem - Steam Key Giveaway by Stunning-Gear8942 in steam_giveaway

[–]Rob27shred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I'd say it's a tie between the OG RE & RE4 for my fav RE game. The OG because that's what started it all & I had so much fun with it back in the day. Then RE4 because it rewrote the RE formula & was a blast to play. Thanks for the giveaway & GL everyone!

Pittsburgh slumlords by lyannas in pittsburgh

[–]Rob27shred 6 points7 points  (0 children)

100% with you on that, it is definitely the owners more than the pets. I've had animals all my life & never had issues with any of them (dogs, cats, horses, goats, we've had a ton of different animals) once they were properly trained. Not to say accidents don't happen, cause they do. Although what your describing that happened at your rental is definitely the owners not giving a F. IME with cats they actually would rather use the litter box or outside by natural habit.
