meanwhile reddit learns the obvious: don't trust anything important to the chinks

2018-10-16 08:37:01 UTC  

he bought chinkshit gpu before and it wasn't a scam

2018-10-16 08:37:04 UTC  

so he tried with the ssds

2018-10-16 08:37:20 UTC  

i thought it was a scam, weren't they cards that were flashed to incorrectly report the chip?

2018-10-16 08:37:36 UTC  

that was one thi ng

2018-10-16 08:37:48 UTC  

there's a video where he bought some chink 1060 with 5gb vram

2018-10-16 08:47:07 UTC  

chink GPUs are just chinese OEMs

2018-10-16 08:47:09 UTC  

they're original

2018-10-16 08:47:23 UTC  

sold for netcafes

2018-10-16 08:47:24 UTC  

and stuff

2018-10-16 08:47:33 UTC  

they just have shittier heatsinks and fans

2018-10-16 08:57:52 UTC  

@Deleted User 1060 5GB is a real nvidia card

2018-10-16 08:57:56 UTC  

that they only released in china

2018-10-16 09:08:12 UTC  

its cheaper for e-sport cafe's due to 1gb less vram

2018-10-16 09:08:26 UTC  

why not opt for the 3GB version

2018-10-16 09:19:01 UTC  

because the 3GB version has less cuda cores

2018-10-16 09:22:57 UTC  

@Cole how's that magnetic car phone holder? Is it strong enough to hold well?

2018-10-16 09:38:31 UTC  

@johnfrum I haven't tried mystery Chinese brand ones, but I have a Milwaukee heated hoodie, and it's pretty great.

2018-10-16 09:39:13 UTC  

Make sure you get one that's a snug fit, it puts off enough heat to keep you warm if it's against you, but if it's baggy, it does fuckall.

2018-10-16 09:49:38 UTC  

any good chink notebook bagpack with cord/adapter tie down

2018-10-16 09:59:39 UTC  

Shit, for the price I'm seeing them for on Ali, you should just get Milwaukee @johnfrum. Bosch and DeWalt make them too, dunno anything about them though, Milwaukee has the only relevant 12v lineup. Assuming prices aren't fucked in whatever part of the world you're in, I wouldn't gamble. I paid $150 for hoodie+battery+charger, and Ali is like $110-$140 for Chinese brands.

2018-10-16 10:03:40 UTC  

Why didn't this exist last month?!

@Deleted User why is chink shit so expensive in Singapore

2018-10-16 10:18:27 UTC  

It's cheaper to just ship it in

2018-10-16 10:19:32 UTC  

chinkapore is expensive

2018-10-16 10:19:47 UTC  

in general

2018-10-16 10:20:17 UTC  

even being one of the biggest naval ports doesn't reduce prices of shipped goods

2018-10-16 10:33:18 UTC  

I feel like I spent a lot more money than I should have here

2018-10-16 11:45:20 UTC  

tfw I confirm an order for an item I have yet to receive on accident

2018-10-16 11:48:48 UTC

@Millwood Ugreen? absolutely strong enough, but the "fins" seem to go way too far into the ventilation and thus aren't really compatible with the vents of my Volvo

2018-10-16 11:54:42 UTC  

like if I wanna push it in I bend the vents

2018-10-16 12:01:20 UTC  

Yeah same on mine

2018-10-16 12:01:52 UTC  

i'm a bit late -- but i got the cheapobungee myself too, had to tape my mouses cable to it tho because it wasn't thicc enough lmao

2018-10-16 12:01:57 UTC  

I saw one magnetic holder like that but sticky so you just glue it to dash

2018-10-16 12:02:08 UTC  

Was thinking of going for that instead

2018-10-16 12:02:27 UTC  

Those vent holders are too thick and bend

2018-10-16 12:04:14 UTC  

the magnetic holders tend to melt from my experience
