there fuck

tho that that would require that people dont abuse and spam hilights

I hear you can get legit video cards from China, not a GTS 530 with the bios flashed to say it's a 1050, but get a legit chink card

you can

just dont expect to pay some magically cheap price

damn, I am looking to up my video card. Not looking for 10 series card.

there is RX580s too from yeston and maxsun

maxsun is new and i would try find some reviews first

dont trust blindly *

it doesn't have to be a high end card

just performs better than my RadeonHD 7770, and can do hardware h.265 encoding

750TI ?

tho that encoding

i dont think it qualifies

that is what I was aiming for. 750TI can do hardware HEVC. Any 600 series GTX card and newer can do hardware HEVC. GT 1030 can't

then 750 might be cheapest one to find used

yea, just gotta hunt for a good deal.

or 1gb model https://www.aliexpress.com/item/ZOTAC-Video-Card-GeForce-GTX-750-Ti-1GB-128Bit-GDDR5-1GD5-Graphics-Cards-for-nVIDIA-Original/32862394718.html?

ofc if you want to experiment you could rig that with passive cooler (incase you need it to be quiet too )

don't need it to be quiet.

Also the 750TI works great with linux, so thats good

it's hard to get around the chinkshit on ebay, even chinkshit sellers are saying they are US only.

Then don't try to buy off ebay.com if you're not from the states...

I am from the states.

Then what are you complaining about?

chinkshit sellers selling hacked low end cards, but saying they are from the states.

Ahh

Got you

Well, I'll hold out for a used one. The market is stabilizing. Maybe if I can find a better job, I could afford a 1050 haha

...

Tbh if those price categories are a problem to you, you should honestly consider other priorities than a gpu right now.

I have my affairs in order, just not a lot of disposable income

@tgotr https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/search?q=flair%3AGPU+1050&restrict_sr=on&sort=new&t=all

visit that from time to time 😉

bookmarked

Generally it's not about cost, it's about how much better it performs compared to my current card. Mine does pretty well, just want that HEVC hardware encoding. Basically don't want to pay a lot for a minimal improvement, just to get HEVC encoding. I don't aim for ultra settings in games

Last time I encoded a blu-ray rip in HEVC, it took 6 hours for a two hour movie

remuxing?

for more sane option here

https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/search.rss?q=flair%3AGPU+1050&restrict_sr=on&sort=new&t=all.rss

no, I mean taking something I have on BD, ripping and encoding the file in HEVC for use on a PLEX server

RSS EVERYTHING

yeah oh hevc is lighter on the cpu with plex right?

I remember a friend was having problems when he was playing games and his family was streaming with plex

yes. I don't use my server over the internet, so it doesn't have to compressed down so much, but throughout my home, it makes it nicer

but the benefit with HEVC is the 10bit color encoding, and the smaller file size

I have south park episode rips that are less than 100MB, 10 bit HEVC

ah yes, american 10-bit anime

yea, Anime too. don't watch a lot of Anime anymore

10Bit color is great with live action stuff too, especially when the movie is stylized

lol

10 bit?

what

4:4:4 color compression in HEVC

similar to HDR

Dont bookmark it. It will just depress you when there is a great deal you missed from either lack of funds or you bought a similar or even inferior product for more money

pc gaming is a mistake

I don't do a lot of PC gaming. You can't do a lot of gaming on Linux anyway.

I like my PS4

u should into gpu passthrough

eh?

google it

I did, seems interesting. I do have a compatible system, running an i5-5770K.

3770 I mean

I'm starting to see the redmi 5 note (the one with the daul camera) pop up on Ali listed as redmi 5 note & redmi note 5 pro. Are they the same thing and is there good ROMs for either yet? Or am I best off getting the 5 plus? Seems to be tonnes of ROM support for it

go for redmi note 5

much newer soc

636 vs 625

better camera etc

Google maps burned in on my mi a1 today

Mostly gone after 30 minutes of screen off again

Should I bother with the warranty thing

i mean you can try

So is the redmi 5 note pro a thing or is it just chink description

Note pro vs just note I mean

the 2 camera one is a different phone

not sure what the pro is

i think pro is just what they called the indian version

Ahhhh. Makes sense. Sweet. If there is good ROM support I'll grab one

They're popping up on Ali, are they in stock finally?

hab u nibbas seen this

First of all, his accent is disgusting

But more serious, i wonder if you can use that pad on a mi mix 2

Size of the phones should be very similar

http://s.aliexpress.com/Jrumuu22

Things exist...

That must be super comfy for the PSP emulator

@porco it needs the phone case for it to even stay on the gameshark

Yeah but the mi mix 2 comes with a very similar case

Not that the pad is that good in the first place

No but the shark has specific port for the attachment

So if won't work on a Mi Mix 2

@Tribit it's Bluetooth

though

@Droidbot it won't fit a Mi Mix 2

nothing hotglue can't fix

Should I get the ipega?

I'll get that thing

Also @porco his accent is New Zealander, they're knock-off australians

Woo

Shit delivered!

Can't wait to get home now

"It didn't have WiFi or Bluetooth which is a shame as I might have bought it if it did*

I don't get why you would want it on a pod machine

The Nespresso machines don't have it

hello my men I need good multitool please advise

It's trendy to have internet where it's not needed

https://www.nespresso.com/prodigio/

nvm

Why do these flashlights go on sale so much

i guess it makes sense on a nespresso machine

Who buys them and for what

i buy them

to collect

How many do you have

4

i thinik

You're a good guy

actually 6

What else do you collect?

fountain pens lol

I think the chinks hooked you

you're getting played like a damn fiddle

i normally stick to jap pens 🤷

though i did just buy 3 chink fountain pens...

I could use a nice pen

moonman m2

To feel better about myself at work

I live in japan

@Stoopeedo victorinox

its so useful

I edc one with me

Nice hand UwU

and have one to give to parents when they go on trips

mostly for the corkscrew because my dad is insane for wine

I assume it's not chink since I can't find it on ali

I'll see if I can purchase it somewhere I guess

lol victorinox isnt chink

if you want chink go ganzo or something

I kinda wanted something with pliers tho

Does anyone know of a portable heat gun?

Sort of like the TS-100, but for desoldering

i can't believe all the shills are defending the toy100

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RThpvcq9Tdg

i can't believe people are shilling this device that heats up a piece of metal

@Windatica whats wrong with it?

youtubers shill anything

i don't like how it heats up a piece of metal

i'm just kidding of course

every now and again there's some retard in the thread who spergs out when the ts100 is mentioned

its just a soldering iron, i don't see how you could sperg out on it

https://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/g/search/text/toy100/

i'm surprised nobody has cloned it yet

it's a relatively simple device

probably no money to be found

or just general 4chan where people dont have better things to do

@Windatica I do hobby electronics and arcade machine repair, having a good small soldering iron is nice

um you're clearly a shill, just buy a t12 clone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE buy a t12 clone, i need to support my t12 factory

tbh ts100 is absolutely useless for most desk repair

The difference between using a piece of shit AC soldering iron and a proper nice temperature controlled one with a proper tip is night and day.

but as a portable device its cool

i kinda want one

>says its useless for desk repair

>doesn't have one

<:thinkjojo:333980344044879872>

ya actually wtf

i mean there is the video of rossman using it

its a dwarf sized soldering iron

various hako and other clones are way better value

No, it's got a regular sized tip

the element is way smaller than other clones

Yeah, you can do just a good job with those too. I have a proper sized soldering iron too thats very nice.

the portability of the TS100 is what got me.

its a nice piece, but really not worthwhile if you dont need portability and real fast heating

Don't want to have to lug a big heavy power supply and base over to arcades

yeah for your use case its great

i liked my midget usb soldering iron until the tip decided it wanted to deform

ironically rossman said that he doesn't like how far away the tip is from the body, he uses some weird aftermarket rubber tip thing to hold his like an actual pencil

Stop pressing so hard

such is life in the zone

Learn to solder

i wasnt pressing hard

it shit the bed and melted itself

like i wasnt even using it

lol

i have a 936 clone and a much bigger OEM station anyway

i like my ts100

i just used it for headphone repairs

Ahh I hold my soldering irons way back anyway thats not going to effect me. The hardest thing I do is SOIC32 replacements, nothing finer than that

Gotta fix dem DAYTONA boards

***DAY TONAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA***
