I have the Pulse Elite, but they're a little too flat for my liking. I do love how crisp and clear the sound comes through though, however I'm looking at Arctis Nova 7's

they definitely dont have that strong V sound signature that most gaming headphones have for "coolness"

#

for reference i was using audio technica ath-ad700x for YEARS before i got my nova headset, and the sound quality drop off isnt as nearly as drastic as expected, the sound signature is arguably similar too (recessed lows, decent mids, and forward but not bright highs)

#

nova 7 definitely lack the soundstage and separation of the audio technicas i had, but for gaming thats really not a problem

#

for straight music listening/media consumption i still use my sennheiser 6xx with a schiit stack, but for gaming, especially wireless gaming, the nova 7 are more than good enough

ATH-M40X are perfect studio monitoring headphones at $100

Generally speaking you are spending more on the branding than the actual quality. Like 30 dollar audio headphones would sound better than 95% of gaming headphones at any price.

btw is there any reason why the certified hdmi 2.1 cables in the tech store here only is up to 3 meters? does the quality degrade after that? i would need like a 10 meters

molten coral

#

but also wondering about power consumption on that thing

pale quartz
#

the power consumption doesn't matter, it will still be the most efficient GPU regardless

molten flame
#

most efficient for work related stuff but gaming with uncapped framerate it will be using a lot of power constantly

#

makes me wonder how much power a 4090 would use at 1080p if capped to only 60Hz leo

#

would definitely use more than a 4060 that's for sure

pale quartz

it's not an issue, literally just enforce a frame cap if necessary

candid flame

didn't monster hunter world have no framecap which caused people's cpus to combust CursedCat

I almost want to pay more for a 4070 than a 7800XT because of the efficiency difference lol

pale quartz
#

Radeon just isn't that efficient, they can't be to make up the framerate target

molten flame
#

nearly all models of 7800XT draws more power than advertised, going around 300 watts

but that is because of factory OC

all 7700XT/7800XT are pushed hard out of box

#

7900GRE more efficient than both even gaming with uncapped framerate at high res

lost cargo

Atleast market will make it that expensive if the GPUs dropped

4090 already costs that much here

so a 5090 is for sure gonna be atleast 50% more

Check your task manager and see if anything else is hammering the cpu?

yes essentially

Cuz ive had some issues with other games aswell with high cpu usage and have heard abt bottlenecking but tbh i dont even know how to spot a bottleneck

pale quartz
#

the game doesn't have enough cores on your system to rasterise the framerate the GPU is targeting

#

what you can do is cap the framerate entirely to say 60 to decrease utilisation, but you're not fixing the problem, the only way to do that is to upgrade it

Zen 2 CPU is not enough for 60 fps on PS5 Pro

it's taking them how long now, 6 years?

It's amazing that the Xbox One and PS4 are capable of running Red Dead Redemption 2 despite having a trash old Jaguar CPU that's slower than a FX-8100

PS5 CPU is literally like 5X faster than PS4 lmao

zen 2 has shit IPC don't be surprised

Zen 2 is light years ahead of Bulldozer/Piledriver though lol

they didn't lose touch the games just downscaled on the old consoles to 720p/600p half the time to maintain performance

they never saw the source code or even got their hands of a running demo in the console

so in other words

I love that

pale quartz
#

the ps5 pro dev kit has been leaked publicly that is why we know what to expect, it's a minor upgrade over the ps5, so performance will not be that that different

turbid verge
#

Doesnt mean shit then

#

Dev kits aren't final products anyways

pale quartz
#

yes they are..

#

they are for game developers to build for the console..

turbid verge
#

they're tools for the final product

#

Plus considering optimization at this time is not even considered

ivory creek
#

wont the ps5 pro have new upscaling tech tho

pale quartz
#

the SDK is what the developers use for building their games in preparation for the console's release, it has the technical specifications included within it, it's only a clock difference, the hardware is identical otherwise

pale quartz
turbid verge
#

literally a thing you should never speculate is performance when the game isnt even out, there's no demo's about, plus game is still in development. Idk why people even speculate at this time PepeLaugg

#

you forgot to mention they dont run release version until very late stages

#

they'll run debug and even test builds and tends to be a mess in performance

pale quartz
#

that's not this lol, GTA 6 is coming out next year, it will already be pretty much finished

#

there's nothing wrong with speculation, he's just saying don't be surprised if it doesn't, it's not a wrong argument

turbid verge
#

yeh not shit. My point is dev kits aren't your final product, they're machines used to run versions or builds that arent meant to be final

molten flame
#

PS5 Pro is literally just a graphics upgrade

turbid verge
#

yet not my point

molten flame
#

CPU is only clocked like 0.3 GHz higher

pale quartz
#

the tldr is this is GTA and simulations are everything for performance, that is the processor is heavily influential for performance, the speculation he is making is not wrong because as noted the ps5 pro is not different for this in a way that matters, if it doesn't hit 60 on the base ps5 it won't hit it either on the pro

molten flame
#

maybe Xbox refresh will use Zen 4

pale quartz
#

they may use dsr or some other technique to get it to target we have no idea but speculating on this isn't incorrect, the console hardware on the processor side is extremely bad related to today

turbid verge
#

Until then you wont know. Rockstar doesnt even tell what's their minimal requirements the games needs to run at

#

and I dont even mean FPS only

pale quartz

there is no minimum requirements, this is consoles

molten flame

Xbox Series and PS5 CPU only have 4MB of L3 cache lol

the game isn't being ported, it's delayed intentionally

molten flame
#

game physics are getting too intense for CPU limits

#

also ray-tracing affects CPU

pale quartz
#

rockstar don't cross release on launch for GTA so people buy on more than one platform

turbid verge
#

physics are a bitch to work with, but usually its how well you can optimize physics. So its more down who writes them and manages it then if the CPU can or can't

pale quartz
#

optimisation doesn't particularly matter zen 2 is equivalent to 8th gen in IPC, it was already dated by 2020 standards nevermind today, the hardware is physically terrible and there's only so much you can work with in such confines

#

there is a gulf of 40% or more between zen 2 and 4 for single core performance

turbid verge
#

devs who dont consider optimizations for their games they have no graphical computing experience at all

#

no wonder City Skylines turned out how it did

pale quartz
#

it's not graphical related, this is simulated compute, they are very different things

turbid verge
#

they didnt gave a fuck about how to manage drawcalls

#

then you just fucked up chief

pale quartz
#

the GPU isnt used for the parts of the game that actually matters for GTA, it has always been a processor (cache bound) game

molten flame
pale quartz
#

I'm not counting the X3D parts but that sounds roughly accurate

#

is around 50% I vaguely recall by normal

molten flame
#

Zen 2 is gimped by design flaws

#

Zen 2 monolithic isn't as bad iirc

pale quartz
#

it's always been a dated architecture, the consoles realistically had nothing else they could use, but they suffer for it today

#

Sonys problem is they need to keep base costs low so if they switch the architecture that disappears, it's already probably going to cost 600 for the pro and they have stated they can't reduce the base one further in price where it is already

molten flame
#

Zen 2 still being manufactured today for OEM stuff because it's very cheap to make

#

good enough for casual users

pale quartz
#

yeah I mean it's useful for ted who wants to have a pre built pc to read emails, not so much for anything else

molten flame
#

Zen 2 on 5nm is very good performance for the die area

#

faster than E-cores lol

pale quartz
#

for now, won't be for long

molten flame
#

I have a Intel N100 which is just a CPU with 4 E-cores, no P-cores at all lol

pale quartz
#

e cores are very good for single core relative to hyper threading going away as tech, it won't be long before they're faster than zen 2 in single core, is just a case of managing scheduling

molten flame
#

E-cores aren't good at being main cores

#

the N100 is slower than my old FX-6300 in games like runescape and minecraft

it runs those games at like 15 fps

they're not designed for it, it's like running a atom on a game

you want to match the ps5 nvme drive enjoy paying 200 or more

flint pewter
pale quartz

i have a pc which physically cant be upgraded because its using top of the line components

if you want to match the consoles you need a nvme, its not optional

the best component i have is the 1660ti

pale quartz

no you cant lol, your gpu doesnt even come close to the consoles

they have equivalent to a 6700xt in performance, you are around 40-50% off

plus i can run games that even ps5 and consoles dont even have. that already beats it

it can run RT at higher than 30?

and no you still lose strictly lol

flint pewter
flint pewter

spiderman for example has global illumination and runs at 60 frames

you cant run "RT all" on a 2060 lol

if you enable GI on a 2060 in cyberpunk enjoy playing at 20 frames

or path tracing

flint pewter

no, you cant dude

the most basic form yes

but its not equivalent to the consoles

flint pewter
pale quartz

so what?

#

you cant run path tracing either and neither can a 2060

#

why does it matter?

flint pewter
#

so. my point being a less then 600 dollar pc is way better then ps5 cuz you can run basic RT at 60 fps if not better with better looking resolution

pale quartz
#

path tracing, is not basic RT

#

you understand this yes

#

you cant turn on PT a 2060, its not powerful enough

flint pewter
#

neither can a ps5

pale quartz
#

and why is this relevant?

flint pewter
#

OMG

#

ill try to say this like im talking to a 5th grader. both a 2060 and ps5 cant use pathtracing. but both can use basic RT right? well the pc could run it more then 60 fps. ps5 is locked at 30. now which is better?

pale quartz
#

no, it cant lol

#

the 2060 doesnt even hit 30 frames

#

the ps5, is better

flint pewter
#

bro i looked it up you can use a rtx 2060 have raytracing and get over 60 fps

your wrong again

thats with dlss my guy

isnt accurate?

dude its native performance

you are looking at DLSS numbers

flint pewter

bro look

even 55 fps is good enough

anything over 30 fps still beats the ps5

pale quartz
#

you are looking at dlss

flint pewter
pale quartz
#

yes it doesnt

#

thats the point

#

native the 2060 doesnt hit 30 frames

#

so it loses, to the consoles, at native, i hope you understand that

flint pewter

pair it with a decent cpu still under 600

pale quartz
#

ok? lol im not particularly interested in whatever hardware combo you have

flint pewter
#

i think im losing braincells talking to you right now lol

you think this is some competition i was just telling you that you were wrong

you can buy a gpu that beats the consoles yes, the 2060 isnt one of them

no we dont

flint pewter

yep cuz you seem to not get it

which at around the same price can beat ps5

then whats the contention? a 3060 beats the consoles

the contention is that you said you cant build a 500$ pc that beats consoles

pale quartz
#

specification for specification, yes you cant, because as i said for the fourth time now, the nvme on pc for that equivalent is around 40% of the $500 "budget"

#

please dont make me say it for a 5th time

flint pewter
#

again i found another that beats ps5 for 99 bucks

#

so yes you can get one without paying a fortune

pale quartz
#

do you even know what nvme the ps5 uses? lol

pale quartz
#

sorry to break it to you my guy but the ps5 one is better than that

toxic wigeon
#

The Series X and Ps5 are really damn good for their price range. You can't really build a PC that's better nowadays for under that price.

pale quartz
#

read what? lol

flint pewter
#

the link

pale quartz
#

.. the digital foundry one, which is testing ps5 nvme drives.. not pc?

flint pewter
#

you can buy a better ssd then the ps5 for 100 bucks

pale quartz
#

you seem confused

#

google cant save you here sorry my guy

toxic wigeon
#

The SSD's for current gen are really good in themselves.

flint pewter
#

it literally says available for pc outperforms ps5

pale quartz
#

expensive as shit too for pcie gen 5

pale quartz
#

because googling for these isnt going to help you here

#

the ps5 drive has a custom architecture which uses a 4 way lane system for queuing data, those drives do not exist on pc except for high end premium ones launched at the quarter end of 2021

#

the one you linked, doesnt use this either, youre just googling for stuff which makes no sense for this

#

anyways

#

@toxic wigeon zen 5 announcement is coming soon

toxic wigeon
#

YUS

toxic wigeon
pale quartz
#

uhh im not certain on if the x3d is delayed till after, if so it wont be long

toxic wigeon
#

Yeah

#

It feels weird to be on the horizon of a 9000 series announcement.

#

I'm really excited to see how things would improve by the time they're readily available.

#

B750, DDR5, Etc.

pale quartz
#

ddr5 is very cheap currently, wont get much cheaper

toxic wigeon
#

Oh no I mean

#

I'm super curious if there'll be a clock and MHZ improvement.

pale quartz
#

there wont be, not a massive one anyways

toxic wigeon
#

Probably teetering at the edge to be honest.

pale quartz
#

clock speeds are limited by the IMC on zen, not memory

#

zen 5 isnt a huge change from zen 4 for that

toxic wigeon
#

Yeah true. Cause doesn't the 7000x3d series have a 6000 MHZ limit?

pale quartz
#

its not a wall but 6000 is guaranteed to work for zen 4

#

anything above that isnt guaranteed, you can do it though

toxic wigeon
#

I swear I remember you mentioning something like that.

#

But I guess really 6000 MHZ is the fairest you could go for.

pale quartz
#

games dont see any benefit from higher clock speeds anyways, so its essentially meaningless

#

you can run jedec ddr5 speeds and youre still going to get 95% of whatever the xmp gets

toxic wigeon
#

So really what, Just run the same kit you did previously?

#

Do you see yourself going to the 9000 series or just sitting on your own chip for a while? You have so many cores, So much l3 cache.

pale quartz
#

ive got a 7950x3d, if the price is right ig maybe, but its not a massive priority for me

toxic wigeon
#

Ye

#

If there are any ram manufacturers you would recommend against, Who would it be?

pale quartz
#

ones that arent actual brands, other than that it doesnt matter

#

ddr5 kits are all roughly the same

toxic wigeon
#

Ah fair.

#

G.Skill looks pretty nice.

pale quartz
#

only thing you should be aware of is buy a dual kit of whatever size you are wanting, dont buy 2x2 sticks

toxic wigeon
#

I remember you mentioning something against Corsair when I was making my PC so I'm kinda weary about them.

#

Oh keep to 2 sticks.

#

Got it.

pale quartz
#

corsair for ddr4, specifically vengeance, the rest of their kits are fine

toxic wigeon
#

Jeez louise DDR4 is fucking nothing.

#

Ye that's fair.

#

Not going for an ASUS Mobo that's for sure haha

pale quartz
#

yeah avoid asus boards, rest are fine

toxic wigeon
#

sus

#

I know if i wait

#

I can get something much better.

pale quartz
#

you wont

#

the next gen boards arent going to be better in a way that matters to you compared to what exists already

toxic wigeon
#

Guess so.

pale quartz
#

they already have pcie 5.0, massive amounts of nvme slots etc, the next chipset is just a minor change over current

molten flame
#

Not much QC issues with DDR5 kits compared to DDR4

#

Like there really isn't many DDR5 kits/models to avoid

#

Typical mid-range B650 motherboards are more feature rich than any high-end AM4 chipset

#

Though you might find more USB ports on the I/O plate of some X570 boards but that's about it

#

When I look for a motherboard these days I just look at what Audio codec it uses and number of fan connectors and their location

toxic wigeon
#

I know for sure that the 9800x3d will consume more power than the 7800x3d - I just hope it won't be significant enough.

#

In before the 9800x3d is some damn mess of a chip.

ivory creek
#

is there any wrong with the asus rog b550 motherboards i should know about and maybe change some setting in bios? i bought one after my x570 broke and their prices had increased way too much

#

i just saw that it had a good vrm and bought it

#

all seem to run fine tho, without any crashing or instability

#

but ye its been a while now so everything is probably fine

#

also , people over at another computerforum are telling me to use the built in bios options to undervolt the 5800x3d. that it benifit alot

#

but someone here told me not to

toxic wigeon
#

I wouldn't undervolt it.

#

There isn't really reason to.

ivory creek
#

apparently its safe from bios but u should never use any software

#

if u do it right i guess

nocturne drift
#

Poor cooling on the pcim

#

4090 is sooo cool btw

#

My fan speed never go above 60% because the gpu never go above 60c unless I push it really hard.

#

I'm just blown away by the power draw with a vbios flash 1.1v overvolt

#

I get to enjoy Horizon forbidden west 160-200+ fps dlss quality at 1440p all max settings.

nocturne drift
#

Also I have static pinned over 14 zen2 and zen3 cpu from degradation on ltt discord, pcmr discord and in real life. This is going crazy. I started ignoring it cause there are sooo many. Sucks for them.

toxic wigeon
#

I just care for Cl30 6000MHZ+

#

I just don't know the average you'd for for DDR5.

#

so I'm basing it off cl30 6000mhz

dry pike
#

My 6400mhz cl 32 is finally running well with my new motherboard. Not touching them again ^^

ivory creek
#

if you search on it theres alot of hits from people who get really good results from undervolting the 5800x3d

#

im tempted to

pale quartz
#

the voltage is capped so it can't boost higher than it's factory, you will have instability if you try to UV it, leave it at stock

ivory creek
#

i guess ill find out, i did a slight decrease. seem stable so far tho. thanks for the reply anyway

red storm
pale quartz
#

in the case of certain x3d processors cause them to die entirely fairly shortly

red storm
#

Ah I see 👀 thanks for letting me know

I undervolt my 3080 and it’s more cooler at the same performance. I never have an issue undervolting it

#

Unless your talking about CPU then I haven’t touch CPU yet laugh

toxic wigeon
prime jasper
#

yooo technology

#

Guys imagine a flying car

lost cargo
#

Won’t happen for a while.

#

A long while

#

I’m not talking about hovering over water

pale quartz
lost cargo
#

Watch the prototype fail leo

pale quartz
#

the technology is actually pretty far along than most assume, it's only a matter of time till they're certified for driving

lost cargo
#

It’s gonna be hella expensive. Millionaires prob can’t afford it leo

midnight crypt
#

now you just gotta get a pilots license to drive your car

lost cargo
#

Since it’s electric. The charging to full is finna be hella slow leo

pale quartz
#

?

lost cargo
#

The battery have to be hella big right?

pale quartz
#

nope

lost cargo
pale quartz
#

flying cars aren't like planes, they don't use an engine for propulsion, they rely on the aerodynamics of the car itself to maintain a cruising state

lost cargo
#

So it takes fuel HMM

pale quartz
#

no, the parts that need to be powered are the interswitching of the wings and driving on the ground

#

not the air

#

the concept isn't particularly new and has been around for eons now, there just wasn't a way to do it at scale in a economic way till recently

lost cargo
#

So it flies like an airplane for takeoff?

pale quartz
#

yes to gain altitude it has to use the engine for propulsion, once it's in the air it switches off, etc

lost cargo
#

Mmm 🤔

#

I still wonder how long the battery last. The consumption have to be big

pale quartz
#

the consumption isn't going to be anything marginally different to an electric car driving on a road

#

you misunderstand that an engine is there to overcome friction for motion, on a road the friction is the tire creating resistance with the ground, there is none of that in the air

lost cargo
#

Just make it hybrid leo

pale quartz
#

realistically aviation related stuff was always the next frontier, it just makes the most practical sense for solving capacity issues, we already have jetpacks and the like, vehicles are the next thing

wet notch
#

i dont even trust ppl on land

#

and ppl now wanna FLY

#

with their cars

pale quartz
#

it's safer than driving on the road, if that counts for much

wet notch
#

because ppl are trained with helicopters and stuff

#

imagine 10 000 in a city flying around

#

omfg the noise and the accidents

pale quartz
#

there won't be noise

#

its a aerodynamic vehicle
