Get a USB C Dock Gen2

Niklas ⚡OP•4/1/24, 4:57 PM

They're pretty cheap and very nice

NNiklas ⚡Get a USB C Dock Gen2

Valerie•4/1/24, 4:57 PM

I want too

Valerie•4/1/24, 4:57 PM

Just, y'know, child with no paying job

Niklas ⚡OP•4/1/24, 4:57 PM

Can drive a single Ultrawide really fine

Niklas ⚡OP•4/1/24, 4:57 PM

at 60hz

Niklas ⚡OP•4/1/24, 4:58 PM

Oh damn I thought they got cheaper

NNiklas ⚡Can drive a single Ultrawide really fine

Valerie•4/1/24, 4:58 PM

What's the max they do?

Niklas ⚡OP•4/1/24, 4:59 PM

For the refresh rate I don't know do

Niklas ⚡OP•4/1/24, 4:59 PM

But I think 4k60

Niklas ⚡OP•4/1/24, 4:59 PM

or 3 1080p displays

Valerie•4/1/24, 4:59 PM

I want 3440x1440 at at least 120 + a secondary 1080p display

Valerie•4/1/24, 4:59 PM

Which I could use the laptop itself for

Niklas ⚡OP•4/1/24, 5:00 PM

that should probably work

NNiklas ⚡that should probably work

Valerie•4/1/24, 5:01 PM

Anyway yeah, still gonna need like £40-50 to get one

Valerie•4/1/24, 5:01 PM

Plus maybe £5 for the HDMI dummy lol

VValerie Then my PC would just be proxmox and then streamed to whatever

59smoke•4/1/24, 5:03 PM

I would like 1 computer that is actually like 10 computers. That’s the dream. But then I realized when 1 breaks then 10 breaks. So I held off on my proxmox based goals

virtualize my life

59smoke•4/1/24, 5:04 PM

And then let me remote that virtual life from a laptop or tablet

59smoke•4/1/24, 5:04 PM

My current laptop keeps running out of ram so I moonlight in my server with 64gb to browse Firefox

Valerie•4/1/24, 5:05 PM

A framework 13 + eGPU is what I want. Being able to just connect it and boot a Windows VM (or just use Linux) is appealing.

Smabe•4/1/24, 5:05 PM

one time I took my gaming pc and ran ubuntu/kvm on it then passed my video card / usb ports to the vm running windows annnd it was pretty great actually. had to compile a kernel with some pulse audip fixes to get the audio to not be choppy

Kiren•4/1/24, 5:06 PM

I tried to go that route when rembrandt launched, but eGPU was really finicky under linux in my experience and I wasn't willing to put up with running windows

Valerie•4/1/24, 5:07 PM

If I'm just passing it through to a VM I'm hoping it'll be alright

Kiren•4/1/24, 5:07 PM

Could be, there's also been more progress made since then

Valerie•4/1/24, 5:07 PM

Yup

Kiren•4/1/24, 5:07 PM

And some of the issue I think was immaturity of the AMD TB support at the time

VValerie @Bluedragon You got battleye games working?

Bluedragon🦞•4/1/24, 5:35 PM

Technically yes.

Bluedragon🦞•4/1/24, 5:35 PM

Enabling Hyper-V on windows got Kernel level Battleye and EAC working.

Bluedragon🦞•4/1/24, 5:35 PM

Issue is

Bluedragon🦞•4/1/24, 5:36 PM

Hyper-V disables the vGPU display

Bluedragon🦞•4/1/24, 5:36 PM

Meaning I get a direct X not being available error

Varis•4/1/24, 5:36 PM

coolercontrol just released the Mix profiles feature. You can now combine graphs from multiple sensors and make a fan act upon which is more appropriate

TheEtherNetBoyz•4/1/24, 5:37 PM

Can you add touchscreen to nested desktop?

Kyle Gospo•4/1/24, 5:37 PM

oo nice, that'll be good for my case fans

KKyle Gospo oo nice, that'll be good for my case fans

Varis•4/1/24, 5:39 PM

yeah, I intend to make my case fans ramp up for the CPU or GPU, whichever needs it at the moment

BBluedragon🦞Hyper-V disables the vGPU display

Valerie•4/1/24, 5:46 PM

Ah, so, possible but annoying on your setup?

VValerie Ah, so, possible but annoying on your setup?

Bluedragon🦞•4/1/24, 5:46 PM

Extremely. Pure GPU passthrough would fix it immediately.

Bluedragon🦞•4/1/24, 5:46 PM

With a dummy plug ofc.

BBluedragon🦞With a dummy plug ofc.

Valerie•4/1/24, 5:47 PM

Which is my plan

Valerie•4/1/24, 5:47 PM

Hmm

Bluedragon🦞•4/1/24, 5:47 PM

Precisely.

antheas•4/1/24, 6:11 PM
