  • Hooray, Spread it around everyone! :3

  • Chimney falling wrong way
  • "I don't think that was supposed to happen" haha, yeeah

  • RX 550 or 560 (D), which one would be a better pair for the i5-3470?
  • Oooooh hold on, you said most GPUs have an LED, ok, now that makes more sense, misread that haha

  • RX 550 or 560 (D), which one would be a better pair for the i5-3470?
  • Oh i see, this 400W one i got said it had one of those 80 plus White certification or something, and said it had 80% efficiency, so if this is true i suppose it may do the job then, about this light thing, I'll look for that when it arrives, never saw a PSU with an LED, interesting, thanks there!

  • RX 550 or 560 (D), which one would be a better pair for the i5-3470?
  • Little extra question tho, is there really no way that this 400W PSU could handle one of those? i mean, its TDP seems to be 150W, with the 77W from the i5, there's still bit left there till 400

  • RX 550 or 560 (D), which one would be a better pair for the i5-3470?
  • Yeah, it's complicated, not sure but i guess it's cuz the higher end stuff is just so out of reality for most people here that the demand for the older stuff goes up enough for it to become pricey too, and there's also the insane import taxation that began recently just making everything worse

  • RX 550 or 560 (D), which one would be a better pair for the i5-3470?
  • Thanks for the answers! But oh, yeah those 570 seem pretty good, problem is i already just bought a 400W PSU some days ago, didn't search up properly haha, pain

    Aand also, i can't really seem to find any 570 being sold here on Brazil for a decent price, the price tag difference from a 560 to a 570 is like, veery big, and importation isn't really an option since fees would basically double the price

    The cheapest not used 560 i could find here is currently being sold at R$623,52 (if purchased in installments, slightly cheaper if not) which in a direct conversion would be 118,67 USD

    The only option on that level for a lower price would be those used refurbished ones from aliexpress, some of them have stock on Brazil, but i haven't heard that good of their durability, and my power supply wouldn't be able to handle them anyway

  • What were the highlights of your first year on Lemmy? / Quels ont Γ©tΓ© les moments forts de votre premiΓ¨re annΓ©e sur Lemmy?
  • I don't interact a whole lot, but when i do i've been having a pretty nice experience, thanks there everyone!

    And yeah, happy cake day sh.itjust.works!

    > which one wold pair up better, less bottleneck and all that, a bottleneck calculator said the 560 works better, can i trust it? Is there any other gpus i should consider? (Small budget, Brazil is complicated) > > (I use linux, if that changes something)

    My dad sayin some funny ish.
  • Oooh so that's what he says, thank you very much, now i can truly see the joke

  • hell yeah mint
  • Ooh haha, that really confused me there, thanks for the explanation!

  • hell yeah mint
  • Wait what?

  • Will installing windows on a separate drive break my current linux install?
  • Yeah, i usually have a bootable usb with some Linux distro laying around exactly for cases like that

    Thanks for the advice there!

  • Will installing windows on a separate drive break my current linux install?
  • Yeaah.

    Fortunally i got to convince the person to bring their whole PC, so now i won't have to deal with this anymore! Thank you very much for the answers you and everyone here!

  • Will installing windows on a separate drive break my current linux install?
  • Well i guess, i don't really have whole system backups, but not much important data to be lost either, i know backups are good, but i don't want my storage to go all on that...

    Plus a broken boot on linux doesn't necessarily means all files were lost right? (Unless storage is encrypted, which mine isn't, but that's a different case)

  • Will installing windows on a separate drive break my current linux install?
  • Sadly only SATA ports can be disabled on my board, that doesn't seem to be possible to do to the nvme port, but thanks there!

  • Will installing windows on a separate drive break my current linux install?

    So, i use linux, i don't have any windows install on my disk, but someone wants me to install windows on their HDD, so, if i plug said HDD on one of my sata ports and try to install windows 10 on it, will it mess with my linux boot? if yes, is there a way to prevent that without physically disconnecting my main drive? (my main is an nvme ssd, that's why I'd rather not remove it, already suffered enough trying to screw that in ther

    Edit: Fortunally i got to convince the person to bring their whole PC, so now i won't have to deal with this anymore! Thank you very much for all the answers everyone

  • Is it possible to change my account's email on lemmy?
  • Hmm, here that does nothing, i tried pressing the save button at the bottom of the page and all that but it still resets to the same email i had before after i reload the page, maybe it's something on my instance

    [Linux question] How to disable an I3 keybinding when on an specific application?

    So, i just started using I3 through Arcolinux, it's working pretty nicely all things considered but i'm having one little problem, a game i play uses keys that are very close to a keybind combination that is set here and that makes me accidentally trigger it sometimes, and i wanted to know how, if possible i can make so this keybind is disabled while I'm playing this game, searching for a solution i found this thread on reddit (yeah, lack of better places, but hey I'm asking here now so it's an opportunity to get some info on here!) That seems to be talking about pretty much what i need, buut i have no idea how to create these scripts and all that and i didn't had much success on searching on how to do this kind of thing before so... a little help please? Is there any more efficient method, or something like that?

    Will copying files from one external drive to another create write tasks for my machine internal drive? how does that work?

    So, i use linux with kde and was copying some gigabytes of files from a smartphone to a usb device and while doing that the system monitor kept showing that it was writing some mb/s and i got curious, is said writing happening to my ssd or is it just talking about the usb drive?

    Is using a swap partition (on linux) bad for an SSD's lifetime?

    Does having swap memory damage SSDs too much, what do you think about it?

    Is it possible to make audio from both channels come out of the "front left" on pulse audio?

    I hope it's fine to ask this here, I'm using endeavor os with KDE and got some little speakers for my pc, they however only seem to play sound from the "front left" channel, is there a way to make pulse audio send all audio on it? Like, mono mode? I couldn't find anything that does that...

    Edit: Found a solution! Like i said before in a comment on this post turned out i was running pipewire-pulse, so i could use pipewire solutions! tried easyeffects and it perfectly fitted my needs, thanks for all the responses everyone!

    What do y'all think about the floorp browser?

    Yeah, that's the question, found out bout this browser some time ago and got curious on what do people around here think about it, seems to be open sorce and firefox based so... Does it have a general good reputation among those who know it?

    (Floorp's oficial website: https://floorp.app/ And their github page that is in English: https://github.com/Floorp-Projects/Floorp/)

    240gb nvme SSD + 500gb HD or only a 500GB nvme SSD?

    If I'm not mistaken the 240gb ssd + 500gb hd combination is a tiiiny little cheaper, which one y'all think is more worth it and why?

    How would be the feeling of putting your hand inside a liquid that's 100% incapable of transferring heat?

    This question studdenly appeared in my mind, A hypothetical liquid that is completely incapable of transferring (consequentially holding too, right?) Any heat in any way, how would it feel to touch it? We feel cold when heat gets out of our body and hot when it gets in right? Would it just feel perfectly neutral?

    What does the F in the expression "F in the chat" stands for?
