By all means still post a trade post as you would normally, however timestamps are not required here!

  • It is in your best interest to check the prices of your items yourself using eBay Sold Listings minus 10-15%, or previous sold listings on this subreddit.
  • Anyone who answers a price check would be doing exactly that, or getting a price from their own experience, so we strongly urge people wanting price checks to do it themselves, unless the item is niche or there's no results found online.

Registering interest or offering to buy on price check queries is not allowed and can result in a local subreddit ban.

PayPal Goods and Services is the only payment method we allow for electronic payments for posters with less than 10 confirmed trades. If you have 10+ trades, you can use alternative payment methods, however we recommend Goods and services, please consider due diligence if paying by another method as you will be unprotected.

META New Account Participation Requirements

55 Upvotes

Hi all,

Following a recent exit scam incident on the Discord, we've taken some time to reassess our requirements for accessing & interacting within our community.

This is not the first time it has happened, and may not be the last. I am proud of the collective work the community has done to help those affected, and even members not from our community - thank you u/ptr1337 and the r/CachyOS moderation team for their cooperation.

Effective immediately, all accounts will need to have both:

  • A minimum age of 45 days, to post or comment.
  • A minimum of 100 combined karma (post & comment karma)

For transparency, the old requirements were as follows:

  • Selling posts: 7 days old
  • Buying posts: 1 day old
  • Commenting: 1 day old
  • No minimum karma threshold

We understand this raises the entry barrier a little bit, but believe it's a necessary step to ensure that genuine members are the ones engaging here and not "throwaway" accounts.

Some legitimate users may fall out of this scope and be impacted, we will monitor this over the next several weeks and see if the requirements need tweaking - we urge you not to use karma-farming subreddits to artificially inflate your karma as we will be checking!

Ensure to do your due diligence when trading online, please refresh yourself with this old thread Staying Safe When Trading Hardware

Thank you for your understanding.

Edit:
Please do not use AI to write descriptions or selling points on your posts.

BUYING [BG] Good AMD RX 6080 TX [H] £345

2 Upvotes

Hi there

I'd like to buy a reasonable, Linux friendly RDNA2+ AMD card eg a 6800. I'm not particularly wedded to which specific card but something "this good" or newer. Use case is a mix of scientific computing through kokkos/ginko and similar middleware libraries, transcoding and a bit of light 1080p gaming.

Save the eBay fee and sell to me!

  • Silverstone FLP03 5.25 bay cover, not the faux floppy disc but the striped grill ones with mesh behind it.
  • Used/new? Clean and tidy is more important than new or used.
  • Under £20, or trade for fans? I have some fans I'd trade, Thermalright TL-UB36R or TL-UB36 360mm unibody fans, either reverse or normal. I have spare of both, or a 240mm reverse one too. I have a lot of spare parts I'd trade, including a couple of 120mm TL-M12QR's.
  • inPost preferred as it's easy to pick up from, cheap, cheerful etc, but whatever works. Payment I'm unsure of, as I've never purchased/traded like this before but I'm sure there's a guide in this reddit for it should I find the part. 😊
  • I have the Silverstone FLP02 and I'd like to swap out one of the faux floppy disc front shield/panel covers for one of the 5.25 bay slots to the mesh without buying a second case just for that one lil part. It's for my personal beige build.

FAQ

  • Saw someone else doing it so I'm doing it - these controllers are GTA6 ready :) and any other game to be honest
  • I do these upgrades as a pet project/hobby. I'm trying to prevent e-waste by basically fixing up otherwise perfectly fine controllers to a useable state and get satisfaction from doing so. I'm just a normal guy, not a professional repair man doing this for a living nor do I have perfect soldering skills.
  • Dualsense BDM revisions are internal hardware updates. Newer does not mean better for gaming, but might have less battery wear. They still use traditional potentiometer sticks when being sold at retail.
  • Tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) joysticks use magnetic sensors to detect stick movement instead of physical contact, unlike traditional potentiometer sticks. This greatly reduces mechanical wear and can improve longevity and consistency. They’re very resistant to stick drift, though not completely drift proof, as you can still wear out the plastic and the spring inside the joystick. Still should last you way longer than a normal potentiometer joystick however.
  • I use whatever TMR sticks I have to hand, from my experience having used 3-4 different ones generally they all function the same, aside from tension differences. I calibrate to between 7-9% circularity as per community advice.
  • For all the controllers I get rid of as much dirt and grime as I can notice, tested and are working to the best of my knowledge. I do not sell faulty controllers knowingly, unless I state it explicitly that the controller has a fault.
  • Remember these are used controllers and therefore potentially have cosmetic flaws and worse battery life compared to a brand new controller. Please ask for and check photos before purchase. I also cannot fully test battery life on all these controllers so please set low expectations.
  • Controllers are sold as seen, I do not offer returns, repairs or refunds on units that become faulty. Happy to discuss options if they are dead on arrival however.

BUYING [BG] 32GB (2 x 16GB) of Corsair Vengeance 3200MHz DDR4 [H] £120

0 Upvotes

Reason specifically asking for corsair vengeance** is because this pair is going to go into either my:

a) Asus Prime B660M-A AC D4 (proxmox node)

or

b) Gigabyte MC62-G40 (WRX80 for threadripper pro zen2/3 - LLM Server)

Asus board freaks out trying to run 4x DIMMS if they are not matched (currently 64GB 2 pairs of vengeance, 1 pair single rank and 1pair dual rank, have worked stable 3200. But when i just recently tried 48GB - 2x16gb & 2x8gb (the 8s are not corsair) it would crash out within a few minutes of boot even at 2400 and i need 64GB back in there but I pulled the dual rank 2x16GB into WRX80 for Strata inference use.

The WRX80 board I have to 'trick' it into running my 8x dimms at 3200 (I actually manually set 2666 In EnfPOR in BIOS but dimms offer up 3200) board cant give 1.35VDIMM but because of whatever is going on with this Enforce POR bodge the timings get loosened and it holds stable at 1.2v 3200 across 8 dimms

So need to ensure purchased dimms will operate the same.

**There's a possibility other 2x16GB could be pulled to 3200 at 1.2V and loose timings by WRX80 board so might consider other kits, it handled the 6x16gb corsair & 2x8gb somethings without fuss.

Thanks
