now what if we made this even better. by making it run on a schedule. and made it duplex. and attached multiple cars together for more capacity
we could call it the TRAIN (Tesla Radically Ambitious and Intellectual NewTransferSystem)

the best part about the Revolutionary Transit System is that its maiden voyage got fucked by a tesla that had autopilot malfunction so it stopped in the middle of the tunnel and caused a 4 hour traffic jam

well it's 100% coming this quarter amd confirmed
umbral moss
well it's 100% coming this quarter amd confirmed
Q4 is a long time
they could announce it on thanksgiving and start shipping on new year's eve
hard drift
nah i highly doubt that 
they'll probably use it before then to drive gifts and everything
umbral moss
looking forward to the $1500 7950x 
umbral moss
I thought the zen 4 launch window was Q4 2022
hard drift
no, amd officially said “Looking ahead, we’re on track to launch our all-new 5nm Ryzen 7000 desktop processors and AM5 platforms later this quarter with leadership performance in gaming and content creation,”
so it's 100% Q3 unless they suddenly delay it but highly unlikely
umbral moss
would be nice to see something land on time for once
hard drift
it'll still likely be out of stock real quick 
like normal for launches
umbral moss
I kind of want to wait for the 7950X3D since those are on the roadmap
hard drift
yeah, i plan to wait for 3d vcache versions if i go 7000
only way i'll be willing to deal with first gen problems 🙏
umbral moss
who knows when they'll actually launch those though
hard drift
probably as a backup for intel stuff
umbral moss
imagine if 13th gen still sucks so AMD has no incentive to make the vcache chips
hard drift
imagine if 13th gen still sucks so AMD has no incentive to make the vcache chips
it probably will based on leaks
umbral moss
like nvidia sitting on their ass for the last, uh 8 years
hard drift
the one thing i can see them releasing vcache wise is the 7800x3d to rival the 13900ks or whatever if it turns out good

what are you waiting for 
umbral moss

hard drift
umbral moss
yes, I've also read the boilerplate specs for X670E
I have a lot of reservations with AMD shitting itself on a strong product launch
I remember the dumpster fire of barton chips having great performance but the boards were terrible
hard drift
atleast recently they've been decent 🙏 aside from luck of the draw with certain boards
don't know how i feel about the new style of boards though, B is the budget chipset now
what do you care, you just upgraded smh
umbral moss
DDR5 needed to be done
forcing DDR5 means that memory companies can't keep fucking around and not putting any effort into refining DDR5 PCBs
they've had way too long of "well, nobody needs DDR5 so we'll just release a handful of dimms"
like the DDR5 spec was released in what, 2019?
we're still in the first phase of a new DDR release?
we're nowhere near the "we're so good at making this that we're 7 or 8 bins above the jdec max spec frequency at a reasonable voltage" phase
despite DDR5's spec being old enough for jdec to start considering DDR6 spec release
hard drift
although i have a bad feeling about what's to come with rule 4 stuff pertaining to amd cpus 😭

although i have a bad feeling about what's to come with rule 4 stuff pertaining ...
considering who makes most of the semiconductors on planet earth, it's a national security issue

lots of thunder, no lightning, so to speak

umbral moss
I mean, we will, there's not much that rule 4 man can do without triggering a serious international response
it's not like TSMC doesn't supply almost every country on the planet with chips
hard drift
yeah but they're still a superpower so they can do quite a bit of bad if they wanted to/tried
umbral moss
I mean, it's hard to "do bad' when literally everyone is against you, even some of your supposed allies lmao
the ramifications of losing TSMC's output is a national security threat to pretty much everyone since they supply the chips that make all the pew pew next-gen hardware go

between it and the cadillac xts i wanted the continental just for the looks but man the price was a huge ripoff at the time

umbral moss
the production model is a downgrade in basically every way

they wanted 45k for those new

the lone used one I remember finding for 35k was pretty beat up
umbral moss
ah man, I member when luxury cars started at $45k
sly elk
the xts was cheaper, had more room inside, and it was nicer
umbral moss
and not $85k
sly elk
err had nicer features*
there were 2 things I found really dumb about the continental
the first was that they decided to use the fusion platform.

see, american car companies had this big crutch with FWD
they're all based out of michigan
where it snows
so they think everything should be FWD 'for safety'
(there's still a sizeable contigent on allpar that believe the charger/300 being RWD was a huge mistake)
umbral moss
so they think everything should be FWD 'for safety'
wrong, it's because the average american can't fuckin drive and FWD cars have better handling under non-ideal conditions
sly elk
like I shit you not
there's a large crowd on allpar that believes the charger and hellcat and all that were a huge mistake and dodge should've continued making FWD cars like the intrepid

of all the cars to pick, they chose the fucking intrepid and not the neon?

sly elk
they argue the 300m was far better than the 300c
umbral moss
did they get dropped on their heads as babies

which makes me hate their opinion so
the other thing I hated about the continental was the doors
so they decided that mechanical door handles are so last century

another funny idea
would be to put some badass speaker system in there somewhere
trunk maybe?
set it up so you can totally fake the exhaust hahaha
umbral moss
you could probably duplicate it with some custom tubing roughly in the exhaust path
sly elk
yea!
umbral moss
and just put contact speakers on the tubes

then you have a sleeper lol

nobody's going to be like "damn, that viper smoked me, didn't see that shit coming"

I thought 24 was standard these days?

the x570 godlike does 14+4+1 so yeah it's pretty insane
umbral moss
yeah, but also consider that the power consumption is almost double, so
zen 3 is what, 105W PPT? zen 4 touching 230 PPT?
hard drift
i mean potentially yeah
umbral moss
24 may not even be enough if you decide to try to crack the 6GHz barrier
and that ax1600 looks like it will get a real workout with these new chips
hard drift
24 may not even be enough if you decide to try to crack the 6GHz barrier
i mean it'll be fine probably considering they were doing 5.5 consistent
umbral moss
yeah, but the reason power consumption is bonkers this generation is because they're going over 5 GHz
switching losses are to the fourth power of frequency in silicon
getting to 6 may push the power consumption over 350W easy

umbral moss
wtf their goal was $382? heh
it depends on how the funding is structured, setting a low goal means that they get to brag that they're 15000% funded which draws more attention
one of the rookie mistakes kickstarter campaigns run is that they set the funding goal at their intended profit level and it takes forever for a campaign to hit $15k or whatever, especially towards the end of the campaign when people see time is running out and the campaign isn't close to funding
if a campaign is funded you're definitely getting your thing if you back, so it's more incentive to get in on it
umbral moss
I've seen a few campaigns die that way, they set the funding value at their true goal level instead of something that will get eyes on the campaign
odd sand

being tagged as a "kickstarter project we love" is free marketing and you need to be funded in a certain period of time after campaign launch to qualify for it

Since the board isnt technically broken I would just flip it on ebay or amazon used and take a little hit on price
Then buy another board
Since your problems are just a hardware issue with Z690 chipset right?
So unless the next person uses 3 drives they wouldnt even know. Yeah I would just flip it
modest moss
ok so
have you tested it with 2x nvme?
my asus z690 seems fine with 2
presumably one drive is OS/apps, one drive is corp shit, and the 3rd is extra storage?
wondering if you could run 2x nvme, sell an nvme, and slap in a sata ssd in place of the 3rd, for downloads etc where you won't really notice the speed loss
obviously not ideal but it could give you nvme speeds on OS and work stuff
umbral moss

Maybe if you raise a stink on Twitter they will advance to Tier2 and refund you lol
Bc obviously you were going back and forth with them to troubleshoot and tried the second board etc. so this has been an ongoing issue since before the 30 days

If you have a fast car, you can get up to 100mph in not a lot of distance. You can't account for someone being suicidally stupid. Maybe they wanted to die and didnt consider all the others they would take with them
