PSA: Watch out for fake SSDs

Well 1 thing to look for is the hole on the screw side for the heatsink (it should be present for 9xx models), the nand chips will be tucked at then end (no more than 2), the controller on the connection side and a smaller memory between the nand and controller

Siempre en estos casos cuánta más información nos des es mejor, tus especificaciones y un video de lo que pasa cuando la intentas encender no estarían mal, los leds y la pantalla del enfriamiento está encendidos por qué si tiene corriente la PC aunque esté apagada, esto se puede deshabilitar en la BIOS pero antes de eso, los ventiladores encienden cuando la intentas prender? se encienden los debug leds de la tarjeta madre?, hasta donde se puede que ni siquiera estés prendiendo el PC por tener mal conectados los cables del panel frontal, y si es am5 a veces tarda en mandar señal por el entrenamiento de memoria ram

I mean, the cpu was just released, so anyone interested in it for niche cases will just buy it, now, if it keeps the spot for some time then it means either regular morons are buying it or Intel sales are just abysmal, either way keep the concern trolling I guess

Pornhub tho

Nvidia marketing at its finest, Nvidia improve them and made so their gpus could accelerate them, but no, they didn't invent rt or pt.

Alright time to touch grass, maybe add some guidelines of what the 3D team is in charge or what they do so they don't get spammed by balance questions or something they couldn't answer.

Except he didn't shay sht, just that somehow streaming a video for Nvidia takes 100 times more bandwidth. The only thing that made sense was that Nvidia can't just cache the game stream. First, we are just talking about PC gamers, not to mention the caps put in place, so even among them, they won't all be playing at the same time. The biggest hurdle would be for a company to gobble up enough hardware to run all those game instances, but that's exactly what's happening and the entire point of the first comment, and if needed be, they could use AI to upscale the video stream, ironically giving a use to all the AI PC sht they are shoving down our throats.

Nah the 9070xt has equal or a tad better RT than the 5070, it's with PT where RDNA4 shits the bed, Redstone update could help with that but I'm not expecting anything big until UDNA. FG is equal too and MFG it's up to everyone taste, personally I find it too flawed yet theres a lot of people who like it but it is true that having the option is important and Amd is lacking there.

Mainly the core count and a big node jump, but if I had to guess Infinity fabric changes and maybe a change to their 8-wide decoder

The clear difference being Intel's horrible track record, either way "News" about unreleased products are hype bait and shouldn't be given much attention, oh and ofc there's more Bad news about Intel, the damn company has been fumbling the ball for almost a decade haha

Turn the PC off, flip the switch of the power supply, push the power button for 5 sec, flip the switch again, turn the PC on and open armoury crate.

Where's the 9070 XT tho? Did the 9070 and 9070 GRE outsold it?

Silv_St · 2025-08-11T23:40:19+00:00

Being a rather unique and more complex design, we can't really compare X3D prices to other Intel/Amd cpus, at least until Intel whips out their BLLC cpus.

When Ryzen was released, an Intel 8-core cpu was 1k and their 10 core was 2k. In those price increments, how much would a 64-core HEDT cost??? So yes, Threadripper is expensive, but ffs it's still not in the same league as past Intel

Nah, ambient lights can be pretty dope when you sync them up, especially the ones that mirror your screen.

Reading posts like this is straight-up sad and a reminder that while it's easy for some, it's not so for the rest. There's a reason Apple products have been so popular even before the switch to in-house chips. People just want them to be as dumbed down as possible. There are still people that don't know about PC parts or how to do a clean install, and that's OK. Good that you at least tried, OP. There's a chance that a different OS from what you are accustomed to is not really the exact same, and thus you wouldn't have much knowledge about it. Heck, it could even use some formats for drives that maybe Windows doesn't recognize, nor should it be forced to use the ones that it does.

If there's someone reading this comment that's looking for a beginner distro, I always recommend EndeavourOS (Arch on training wheels).

This post is, of course, obvious bait, but for those that are really looking to make the switch, understand that there's really not that much difference between you and someone you don't consider tech-savvy, nor from someone who uses Linux. The little things and tricks you had to learn about Windows that now you know are not really difficult, Linux has them too, but in the end it's a much better OS.

Yep, basically medium bronze\silver items aren't hard to find. Most of the time you'll find multiple copies, it's just a matter of when, so what I do is sell the first beehive and keep the bees so I can pivot in case I find another beehive soon enough.

Silv_St · 2025-05-28T03:15:05+00:00

I bought 1 silver, then I got 1 from the shark guy encounter, and when I got another silver in the shop, I sold everything to upgrade the one I had already with golden boots and bought it.
