supporting but even on the smaller nm process?

#

what is the anticipated perf increase for the Q2 amd cpu?

unborn epoch
#

oh

#

streaming seems to run pretty nice actually

rose eagle
#

amd has no gaming cpu eh?

#

i dont multitask, a 9700k would prob be stellar

#

but if new intel cpu's next year (if even) drop 300 series then itll be a fk u

#

fkers, fine

#

ill sit on my 3770k til 2020

#

๐Ÿ˜„

lament thistle
#

Lol i9 is shit when it comes to price per performance

rose eagle
#

oh god yea no thats a hot pos anyway

#

like 402c

lament thistle
#

Im still sticking with AMD till Intel gets their shit together

rose eagle
#

i bet for 1440p gaming the ryzen 2700x is on par

#

but thats because even my 3770k is fking on par with an 8700k at 1440p

#

you dont need a cpu for 1440p+ ๐Ÿ˜„

storm osprey
#

yea its what amd said.

rose eagle
#

any i7

#

LITERALLY any i7 ever released

lament thistle
#

Higher than 1080p GPU is the only bottleneck tbh

rose eagle
#

i would put against ANY other i7 for 1440p

#

4k is no fkin contest, an i5 even competes

storm osprey
#

i mean, there are gains, its just not that big

lament thistle
#

Just wait till next year's lineup or dish out on a cheap i7, just because your current cpu is on par doesn't make it any newer

rose eagle
#

i need someone to prove my min FPS is being hit

#

by having an older i7

#

avg is meaningless

#

on ultra 1440p i get 99fps avg, 61 on 1%

lament thistle
#

That's about right

#

What settings tho

rose eagle
#

^

lament thistle
#

Medium to high or medium to low

rose eagle
#

ultra

#

all

lament thistle
#

On bf1 I assume

rose eagle
#

on a 2070 yea

#

.1% time is 25fps

lament thistle
#

Yeah don't expect 100+ on ultra at 1440

rose eagle
#

i dont think i see any bad dips here due to cpu

lament thistle
#

A couple really bad dips but I'm too lazy too see if it's cpu related

rose eagle
#

be great if there was a FRAFS upload database

#

for benchmark comparisons

unborn epoch
#

hmm

#

streaming feels okish

rose eagle
#

on what?

#

i thought maybe his prostate was acting up

unborn epoch
#

ya im trying stream

#

but 720p feels better than 1080p

#

ya my fps dips too much when doing 1080/60

#

720/60 feels good

rose eagle
#

ew

#

like 1440p gaming but the stream is 720?

#

ill sell you my entire i7 rig for $5000 so you can stream

unborn epoch
#

guy

#

your computercase is older than god

#

which is like 2018 years

rose eagle
#

errrrrr

#

Jesus maybe

#

๐Ÿ˜„

unborn epoch
#

ya right

coarse nimbus
#

has anyone experienced bf1 constantly minimizing itself to the desktop?

#

just tired to play a round and it would do it every couple of seconds sometimes or multiple times a minute

unborn epoch
#

I have this issue when someone invites me to their party

lofty light
#

@coarse nimbus sounds like you have some other process interrupting it

unborn epoch
#

You should probably format

lofty light
#

Lol

coarse nimbus
#

I kept hearing the windows popping sound, w/e it is when a window pops up?

#

but nothing was there..

lofty light
#

Yeah sounds like something running in the background

#

You got win 10?

coarse nimbus
#

I didnt have this issue a couple days ago when I started to play again for like 2 rounds, then suddenly issues

#

yeah win10

#

I restarted earlier..ill check later to see if that fixed it

lofty light
#

Hmm, yeah check if it's like an update window or something

coarse nimbus
#

did a quick google search people were mentioning overlays but I have discord turned off

#

and i thought i had origin off too

lofty light
#

Also, you'd be running in full screen or borderless?

prime jasper
#

Hows that 2070 doing for you? @rose eagle

#

Still wishing you would have got a 1080ti instead?

#

xd

coarse nimbus
#

i think it was in full screen for some reason but swapped it to borderless

lofty light
#

Yeah I'd recommend borderless for that kind of interruption

rose eagle
#

@prime jasper nah not really an option, too much $$

#

its the sweet spot for 1440p for now i think

#

im curious what anyone has gotten on 3dmark Firestrike though

#

these scores online are bs

unborn epoch
#

Just sell the kid

rose eagle
#

my OC is +7.8% perf, bout all i can get i think

#

completely safely

unborn epoch
#

Most are probably ac?

#

Wc*

rose eagle
#

2000mhz?

#

WC?

unborn epoch
#

Water

rose eagle
#

ah

#

yea i dont know what 2100mhz is from

unborn epoch
#

Little luck, better cooling

#

Nothing to sweat over

rose eagle
#

heh interesting, i put in a max score of 18000 and i have 16,845 and none of those CPUs are 8700k..

#

lot of 6700k

#

firestrike measure cpu?

#

theres a physics score in it.. havent used 3dmark forever

unborn epoch
#

What u got?

rose eagle
#

cpu?

#

3770k

unborn epoch
#

That's a bit of a difference

rose eagle
#

For gaming it isn't but I'm not sure how it computes score

#

I think the test I ran was 1080 so yeah I need to run a custom set of tests actually

#

Not fair to my CPU

#

Actually I'm going to rerun the tests at 1440 to see what the real effect of my OC is

unborn epoch
#

You go girl

rose eagle
#

I know, I'm on a mission lol

#

Got nothing else going on besides a kid driving us crazy

#

At least I have putting my PC into my new case this weekend

#

To look forward to

storm osprey
#

meshify c sexiness

rose eagle
#

Interesting still 8.4% ish

lament thistle
#

Meshify c mini too nice

rose eagle
#

I gotta figure out where I'm putting my case, there's barely room to face it towards me on top

#

Printer might get demoted to like the guest bedroom since it's wireless

unborn epoch
#

Printer

rose eagle
#

Yeah there's a device that you send documents to and paper comes out with ink slapped on it that matches what you sent

#

Really insane

unborn epoch
#

But how can documents be real if trees aren't real

rose eagle
#

pretty much had to buy a new one cause of kid and homework / projects

fallen harbor
#

anyone know a good alternative for msi afterburner?

#

that shit unconfigures my gpu fans all the time

rose eagle
#

liar, dont you speak ill of afterburner

lofty light
#

The EVGA one?

rose eagle
#

is the EVGA X1 only for EVGA?

lofty light
#

I think so

#

I know I had to enter my GPU serial last time I got the real old version

fallen harbor
#

it always changes my fans configuration and sets it stuck to 51%

#

temps can go to fuckin 100

#

but it wont move

#

until i go and spam the auto

#

till it wants to set it to auto

#

it ignores the settings

#

not all the time, but sometimes

#

and those sometimes are very dangerous times if i dont notice

#

tbh

rose eagle
#

wew, looks like my gpu has gotten up to 79c max

#

2085 max boost clock?

fallen harbor
#

EVGA Precision?

rose eagle
#

yea X1

fallen harbor
#

kk thnx

rose eagle
#

ah, RTX only atm

#

GTX coming soon

fallen harbor
#

wait evga is for nvidia only?

#

cause mines amd

rose eagle
#

yeh and even only RTX at that right now, nothin else besides afterburner i dont think =/

lofty light
#

You could use the AMD one Kappa

rose eagle
#

this of any use?

#

so setting to auto it just sets it back to locked?

#

ebay has a 10% off coupon site wide up to $100 O_o

forest token
#

if you want msi afterburner to use your fan settings you need to have suer settings on and auto control on, as well as your fan curve on custom, if you are using multiple profiles then you must do it for each and save them

worn storm
#

I've got an RTX2070 yesterday, so far it seems that BF1 performance gap between 1080Ti is much smaller that in other games from reviews...

forest token
#

2070 non overclocked = to a 1080

#

I dunno conflicting reviews

#

depends on the game it seems ๐Ÿ’ค time

lofty light
#

Not sure why you'd go from a 1080Ti to a 2070

prime jasper
#

Because hIgHeR NuMb3rS

queen field
#

and Nvidiaโ„ข DLSSยฎ (DEEP LEARNING ANTI ALIASING)

rose eagle
#

what? BF1 perf seems pretty on par at 1440p with reviews, which ones you looking at? lol

#

ive used FRAFS to do quite a few BF1 tests on my 2070

#

1080Ti only gets 105 avg in 1440p Ultra?

#

yea i mean Toms Hardware shows 105, guru3d shows 131

unborn epoch
#

pls

#

my 1080ti is bae

prime jasper
#

BF1 IS THE MOST BAD WORSEST OPTIMISED GAME

granite kestrel
wet notch
#

super duper bad worstest incrediblest megaist

prime jasper
#

BF1 being the worst? Oh boy

#

You don't know horribly optimized games

torn minnow

#

Help

#

My specs are i3-7100 & GTX1050ti

#

30fps average high settings

#

64 players ofc

#

And should I upgrade my CPU or GPU?

prime jasper
#

CPU

rose eagle
#

yehhh that cpu is death

pastel lily
#

its better to go up a series than a generation interms of cpu

#

i5 5th gen > i3 7th gen

#

depends on ur type of usage though

rose eagle
#

even with an 8600k 1050Ti you'll be cuttin it close for 60fps low settings 1080p

snow chasm
#

Low settings don't make a difference unless I change the resolution

#

Im on a tight budget, which CPU should I replace my i3-7100 with?

rose eagle
#

define tight

unborn epoch
#

eehhhhh, if you go to a new generation you need a motherboard and ram

#

wait, i lied

#

i misread 7100 for 3rd gen

rose eagle
#

buy a used i7 3770k for $100

#

;P

unborn epoch
#

from this goy Majicpanda

snow chasm
#

Isnt buying used things kinda like a gamble tho? xd

rose eagle
#

new 3rd gen i7 is still like $250 lol

unborn epoch
#

in some cases it is but usually isn't

rose eagle
#

i7 prices havent dropped, they're all beast cpu's still

snow chasm
#

3rd gen sounds... old I guess

#

Maybe I underestimate

rose eagle
#

i got one still, haha

unborn epoch
#

it is old, but will destroy your 7100

rose eagle
#

i mean at 1080p i guess its worthwhile to get a newer gen

#

but if your budget is like $150 that wont buy much

#

im not sure if its eally worth it to go from i3 to i5

snow chasm
#

Yea components are ridiculously inflated in terms of price

rose eagle
#

i5 suffers major problems with min FPS in battlefield

#

do you have a series 300 mobo?

unborn epoch
#

why does discord use 25~30% gpu at times

snow chasm
#

I dont even know, I bought my PC prebuild a couple of months ago

unborn epoch
#

i think they are mining cryptocurrency on my computer

snow chasm
#

I think I do

#

@unborn epoch Is that even possible 0.o

unborn epoch
#

sure

#

if someone decides to put a cryptominer in discord i don't see why not

#

it's not a smart move, but definitely possible

snow chasm
#

That is a smart move

#

i didnt even know thats possible

unborn epoch
#

no because everyone would stop using discord instantly

snow chasm
#

They could be making millions outta this considering how many people use discord

#

They could be ignorant folks like me

#

there*

unborn epoch
#

ya, someone else who sues discord into the ground will cover you

#

it wouldn't last long

#

hours maybe

snow chasm
#

Lets sue them

#

It says my Baseboard model is unavailable

rose eagle
#

stares over at case inside box that arrived

storm osprey
#

yoooo

rose eagle
#

no fans or psu til tomorrow!

#

debating leaving it boxed

storm osprey
#

whaa why?

#

no psu?

rose eagle
#

new psu arrives tomorrow

storm osprey
#

lame

#

super lame

rose eagle
#

i had it shipped to store

#

otherwise woulda been tues

#

i had $80 in best buy certs so was basically free

#

only way to swing approval for buying this .. is "free" ๐Ÿ˜„

#

how much it cost? nothing honey

#

oh ok

storm osprey
#

lol gotta love those credits

#

man, id bust the case out and look at it

rose eagle
#

i get so mucy.. i put like $2k a month on my reward zone card

#

so i get like $20-$30/mo in reward pts

#

shit adds up!

storm osprey
#

2k a month?! on what?!

rose eagle
#

6mo later you're like OH HI

#

bills yo..

#

family

#

i mean i put $0 on a debit card, all on the best buy reward CC

#

everything for the whole month

#

dont become an adult if that scares you

storm osprey
#

i see

rose eagle
#

thats doing nothing for ourselves..

#

just fkin.. living

storm osprey
#

i mean.. i think we are spending more than that atm

rose eagle
#

too bad you cant put mortgage on CC ๐Ÿ˜„

#

but yea i mean mortgage and utilities are the only thing that hits my bank account

#

the entire rest of the mo is on CC

#

REWARDZZZZ

storm osprey
#

we should start doing that

rose eagle
#

duh! fk debit

#

safer too

storm osprey
#

theres a lot of things we should do

rose eagle
#

someone grabs your debit card # online, u gotta wait for money to be refunded and bitch a fit

#

someone steal your CC? eh, its their money, can take their sweet time

#

i only have a $100/mo hospital bill im slowly paying off, other than that its just legit bills.. pretty lucky

#

cars both paid off a couple mo ago

#

fk im tired, and sick.. prob why i havent opened the case

#

i just put my head on my desk for 10m

storm osprey
#

yea we got car payment, animal bills (one almost died and is diabetic), paying for my girls ring

rose eagle
#

oof

#

shotgun works for dog

#

M1 Garand if you can

storm osprey
#

lol shed murder me

rose eagle
#

put him down in style

storm osprey
#

shes a vet tech

rose eagle
#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

well hell she should be able to fix it for free then!

storm osprey
#

itll be a little project

rose eagle
#

especially after being nailed by a shotgun

#

give her something to do

#

i could nasty wire everything up but im patient

#

i will take the case out just to plan tho tonight

#

itll prob be easier to not install my pc into it and just wait for the 2 front fans i imagine

storm osprey
#

anyone here into mechanical keyboards?

rose eagle
#

dur

#

who isnt on a mech now??

#

i mean i dont like having sex with them, so not sure what you meant by into

storm osprey
#

like, knowing off brands and the boutique stuff

#

specifically zealpc switches

rose eagle
#

oh like hardcore eh? hehe

storm osprey
#

i guess?

rose eagle
#

2nd BSOD now

#

random in windows not doing anything really

full musk
#

clearly what you should do

#

is install solaris

#

_>

#

<_<

#

...wait

#

Latest release 11.4[1] / August 28, 2018; 59 days ago

#

it's not dead?

storm osprey
#

woot

#

wooot

rose eagle
#

what in the actual fk

#

i opened the box

#

the fans that came with it are only 120mm? i have 140s coming for the fronts.. how the hell, so big

#

i mean my old case only had 80s but jesus

storm osprey
#

lol, just not used to how big 120mm fans are?

rose eagle
#

ive never seen one in person

storm osprey
#

lol just you wait for 140

#

they have 200 iirc

rose eagle
#

the question is move my monitors left aligned on my desk and plop the case up there or move my printer to a bedroom and put it on the little side table to the right

#

would be quite cramped on the desk

#

would be a waste for the front mesh to face the wall, its sad right now to make the tempered glass face outwards since it's on the right side of the case

#

gonna assume that's not flippable

storm osprey
#

case on desk pls

rose eagle
#

but.. itll be.. right there

#

its just 3 ft right on same height on a little desk drawer table thingy

storm osprey
#

where it should be

#

you remember that dust you had?

#

wont happen if you put it on top

rose eagle
#

itll be on a table!

#

its just not my desk with my monitors

storm osprey
#

thats fine

#

anything is better than on the ground

#

as a whole, its the most important/most expensive unit at your desk

#

why would you put it on the ground!?

rose eagle
#

same reason probably that i only get like 1500 steps a day

#

and dont drink enough water

storm osprey
#

lazy?

rose eagle
#

unmotivated is not laziness

storm osprey
#

seems close enough

rose eagle
#

stressed, exhausted

#

my kid is a real fker

#

welp, should have everything hopefully noonish tomorrow

#

either way, itll be up 3ft from ground

storm osprey
#

good

rose eagle
#

just on the side table or smashed on the desk next to two 27" monitors

storm osprey
#

at least 6 inches off the ground

rose eagle
#

its just too cramped

rose eagle
#

do i need 4pin to 3pin converters for the fans that came with the case? gonna assume sdo

#

since my 2 new fans for the front are 140mm PWM , sadly the mobo only has 1 connector so 2 fans will just be full RPM for now til i get a new setup next year

#

got no idea whats showing up on the power supply

queen field
#

no its ok, just that the fan will only work at voltage controlled mode/3pin mode

#

you can purchase splitters from chinese sites for inexpensive splitters @rose eagle

Thats how i got two of my 140mm's running at the same fan speed with just 1, 4 pin header from the motherboard

rose eagle
#

oh, i can hook them into the mobo?

#

if i have 3 pin only

queen field
#

yeah sure

rose eagle
#

i have a splitter coming for my single 4 pin

queen field
#

awesomee

rose eagle
#

since both fans are front, but the 2 case fans that came are also 4

#

1 is exhaust and 1 is top so i dont mind them running full speed for now

#

got no choice

#

long as i can hook them up at all lol

#

PSUs dont come with connections for them right?

queen field
#

if you have a shit ton of fans to be powered and you only have a few fan headers to use, you can always go for an fan hub,

you stick them somewhere at back chassis of the case and this way you can have a neater cable management with all the mini spaghetti cables tucked neatly away

rose eagle
#

nah just 4

#

i think i have 3 PWM fan connectors on my mobo

queen field
#

nope, unless you have the old kinds of fans, they use molex connectors, those can be plugged directly to your power supply

rose eagle
#

brand new Cougars

#

oh wait no those are the PWMs

#

but the case is brand new with the 2 build in fans

queen field
#

awesome, are they the fans with hydraulic bearings?

rose eagle
#

yea

queen field
#

yeee

rose eagle
#

bah they fkin dropped in price already before they got here lol

queen field
#

can u do a refund

#

if its amazon i belive u can lol

#

anyways, i got myself corsair's ML 140mm

rose eagle
#

i doubt i can, this is sold by Cougar and fulfilled by Amazon

#

so not sold shipped by amazon

#

rip $4 ๐Ÿ˜„

queen field
#

send

#

discord

#

corsiar maglevs are not a meme, thought i was spending 30 bucks away on some bs, turns out they're legit

rose eagle
#

well scratch that its just a 3 pin on the ones that came with

queen field
#

ramping up the fans at max, the only thing i pretty mcuh hear r the wind rushing through

rose eagle
#

lol

queen field
#

motor noise is like non existent lmao

rose eagle
#

whats their cfm

#

the ones that came with the case are LLS bearing

queen field
#

oh boy up to 97cfm and 3.0 mmh20

rose eagle
#

lol..

queen field
#

i dunno how exactly is 97 good, i suppose an average of 50cfm should be decent

rose eagle
#

the only thing that will have light in my case for now is the RTX

#

til i research more into LEDs and making sure they can be disabled

queen field
#

what the hell is LLS

rose eagle
#

it would be annoying to do so every night, wife likes it dark and PC is in living room

#

cant have lights everywhere coming from PC ๐Ÿ˜„

queen field
#

liquid something something?

rose eagle
#

lol no clue, seems to be a fractal design specific thing

#

cant find any info

queen field
#

the fuck are they thinking lmao

#

anyways, i dunno but if they are liquid lubricated bearings let's hope they are sealed in well, otherwise allow an option to top up the bearings

rose eagle
#

supposedly like 2x longevity of hydraulic

queen field
#

bleh

#

subjective and varies heavily

#

anyways

rose eagle
#

best not have anything to leak lmao

queen field
#

my 280x's bearings are "sealed" by the sticker

#

LOL

rose eagle
#

one is goin up top

queen field
#

and every 6 months or so, the fan starts grinding and tachometre reading starts getting uneven

#

well they perform impressively well, they don't complain after i lubricate both fans with a few drops of all purpose lubricant

rose eagle
#

phew, mobo has 1x 4 pin and 2x 3pin chasis fan connectors

#

going to need cable ties

queen field
#

only the middle fan has it's bearing sealed shut, peeled both sides of it's sticker and nothing was shown

rose eagle
#

bah shoulda ordered some white velcro cable tie

#

i do like the cue software tho, have it on my k70 lux

hushed geyser
#

Guys a serious question here. Everyone got a volume control on their keyboard. can i remap this volume wheel to another sound device (which is not the set standard device)?

glossy cove
#

@hushed geyser Did Google find you any answers?

hushed geyser
#

Im trying for some days and downloaded some tools but didnt seem that they were initially made for this case

#

i tried to remapp the registry binding for the key but the volume wheel is not a "key"

#

so yeah I hope for some programmers to give me an answer if this is possible and maybe how.

#

@glossy cove

#

because my sounds goes to -> razor input (makes it 7.1) -> Voicemeeter (splits 1 source to 2 output) ->Internal soundcard goes to headset
......................................................................................................................................................................................-> external soundcard goes to speakers

glossy cove
#

You might have to wait a while to get anyone here who can answer that question

hushed geyser
#

now i want to controll the internal soundcard with the volume control

#

okay thanks ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

glossy cove
#

I can recommend to go have a look at LTT Discord

#

All users there are tech guys

hushed geyser
#

can u drop an invite via PM?

glossy cove
#

Sure

hushed geyser
#

thanks !

slate ivy
#

Anyone know if a 650W PSU would run a 2080TI/7700k?

pastel lily
slate ivy
#

does that site tell me?

pastel lily
#

Here you go ๐Ÿ˜ƒ PepeFedora

slate ivy
#

thanks

hushed geyser
#

@slate ivy

#

a calculator with CPU load

slate ivy
#

that should be enough, even though i could only select 3 storage devices, i have 5 but that should make a big difference

queen field
#

@hushed geyser do you need to have both audio outputs to be adjustable? Or 1 will do

hushed geyser
#

actually 1 would be enough. i will controll my speaker with my RME external soundcard

#

my sounds goes to -> razor input (makes it 7.1) -> Voicemeeter (splits 1 source to 2 output) ->Internal soundcard goes to headset
...............................................................................................................................................................-> external soundcard goes to speakers

queen field
#

thats great news, I recommend setting the main source or voicemeter preamp at a fixed volume level, say 90. Then have one of your default playback either source/voicemeter on default for Windows, to be adjustable of course

hushed geyser
#

hmmm one point is still worrying me

#

voicemeeter give me 2 faders for the 2 devices it routes the audio to

#

but 1 fader doesnt work

queen field
#

WW

hushed geyser
#

the virtual one

#

one idea was to use a programm to controll the faders. but the faders only adjust both devices

#

next idea was to remapp the volume wheel on keyboard to the device.

#

then i tried volumeยฒ but I failed too

#

Problem with your answer is. my audio default device is Razor Surround Tool Device

#

Which simulates 7.1 audio for my headset

#

in razor surround I pick voicemeet as the app i want to go my 7.1 sound to. voicemeeter then splits it to 2 soundcards

#

wait I could redo my audio routing

#

so it start with voicemeter

#

one goes to external

#

other goes to razor surround and razor gives it to internal soundcard

#

----------- nope does not work

#

as soon as I switch on 7.1 in razor surround it forces me to use it as default device

#

fack

hushed geyser
#

OK I GOT IT

#

xD

#

Volumeยฒ tool does the deal

rose eagle
#

taps foot waiting for best buy email saying in store pick up is ready for ship to store PSU

storm osprey
#

get that psu yo

rose eagle
#

still no bloody email from them sayign its in

#

2nd monitor or new keyboard + 8GB more RAM? thinkEyes (only got 8GB currently)

rose eagle
#

my 2 fans just arrived so i at least can install them into the case

#

8gb is painful

#

esp for BF

prime jasper
#

Yeah.. But I really want a 2nd monitor

rose eagle
#

how in the deuce you get the front off to install fans on this damn thing @storm osprey

storm osprey
#

if its the same as mine, pull out the bottom tray from the front

rose eagle
#

roger that far

storm osprey
#

and then you can grip under that and grab the front, and pull\ straight out

rose eagle
#

ok so dont pop those 2 tabs

storm osprey
#

errr idk what 2 tabs you are talking about

rose eagle
#

that didnt seem right.. im using quite a bit of force, thing doesnt want to come open

storm osprey
#

and your case is slightly different

rose eagle
#

so it just swivels out from bottom?

#

the manual shows thats what happens

storm osprey
#

hold up

#

oh

#

so how i explained?

#

pulling front from bottom?

rose eagle
#

the shroud doesnt hold it in right?

#

oh this doesnt look safe, its a lot of plastic kind of bolts

#

you gotta really put some force behind it eh

#

ok i got it haha

#

just had to stand it upright

storm osprey
#

yea its pretty tough the first time if i recall

#

@hushed geyser o man im glad u got it fixed by the tiem im back

#

noob question, is it available for non razer devices?

hushed geyser
#

yeeeeeeees

its SO awesom

#

i bought 150 euro creative soundcard

queen field

and the software is much worse then the razor one

queen field
#

which soundcard specifically? I kinda interested

hushed geyser
#

creative AE 5

#

i use my DJ headphone sennheiser HD25C2

#

they are 175 euros tho

queen field

i can buy any headphones i'd like with little to no concern for an amp

#

YEET

wet notch
#

why have peopled stopped buying sound cards btw?

hushed geyser
#

i use RME 400 as external soundcard for my genelecs

wet notch
#

i remember way back everyone bought a sound card

queen field
#

oh well, its all good now, im looking into both wired & wireless speakers

hushed geyser
#

my sounds goes to -> razor input (makes it 7.1) -> Voicemeeter (splits 1 source to 2 output) ->Internal soundcard goes to headset
...............................................................................................................................................................-> external soundcard goes to speakers

queen field
#

i love your setup @hushed geyser

#

i wanted to do that in the past

#

turns out my googling skills wasn't that powerful until i discovered voice meter for amp'ing up my mic for free

queen field
#

i cant really see much other than a faded silhouette of ur rig

fuck

#

average pricing of their subs

queen field
#

already beats my expected budget of 300-ish

hushed geyser
#

yes its big sub lol

queen field
#

k back to looking at sub 200 dollaroos speakers

hushed geyser
#

thats nearly all

#

maybe the sub is missing xD

wet notch
#

thats alot of fans

queen field
#

d00d

#

u take 3.5k off that build

#

and thats how much i've spend on my rig & items used for my setup

hushed geyser
#

yeah its my new lovely rig

queen field
#

anyways, hello fellow maglev brother! @hushed geyser

#

any reason y u didnt go full maglev

queen field
#

i didnt, as i was given a bunch of 120mm sp 2.2k rpm's for free

hushed geyser
#

ahhhh i wanted some rgb stuff ^^ and its anyway silent as fuck

queen field
#

my eyes

#

REEEEEEEEEEEEE

hushed geyser
#

i mounted 6 fans on the h150i pro

#

btw ๐Ÿ˜‰

queen field
#

neato! I should take pics of my rig with my 1070 & new case soon

hushed geyser
#

6x maglev on the radiator

queen field
#

push pull is pretty um

wet notch
#

that comp is way more silent than i thought it would be poly

queen field

well prefer to say it as a personal choice

wet notch
#

very nice

queen field
#

btw are the 7820x's IHS soldered?

hushed geyser

how well does it overclock?

#

was reading spreadsheets of 4790k and 4770k's results

#

4790k gets about a few hundred mhz more than 4770k on average

hushed geyser
#

yeah they are pretty similar

rose eagle
#

Ass bags... My pick PSU is now delayed till like Tuesday

prime raptor
#

RIP

#

Get fudged

rose eagle
#

That's what happens when you do ship to store through Best Buy

#

It had to come directly from the vendor since I got some crazy price match on something they don't carry in stores

unborn epoch
#

you dont really want delivery at home in the vs right?

#

since everything gets stolen

#

err

#

in the US

rose eagle
#

nah it woulda been fine, ship to store said it woulda been 3 days sooner though

#

so i just got screwed

#

old PSU is in, at least PC is up and running

#

there was barely enough room to smash the non modular cords behind the boards

#

occt burn test initiated with new case

#

im betting its no cooler in there ๐Ÿ˜„

#

72c atm

#

full tower one in 80mm 2 out 80mm might be tough to beat ๐Ÿ˜‰ but this looks quite an insanely bit cooler

#

dont knock my old timer shit

prime raptor
#

what case you end up getting?

rose eagle
#

Meshify C black/white

prime raptor
#

Hey!

#

Nice!

#

How quiet you got it?

rose eagle
#

its still got the 2 case fans that came with + two 140mm intakes for now, COUGAR Vortex CFV14HP

#

they are 19.2db

prime raptor
#

Nice, nice

rose eagle
#

now that its on my desk i can hear it all x_x

#

but jesus the dust..

#

as i was ripping my rig out of my old case it got worse

#

the 2 month old CPU fan was disgusting already

#

hmm the 120mm's are 19.2db also

#

but they just have a different sound

#

i mean is your case supposed to be whisper silent where you can barely hear anything?

#

my old one was so im sure im spoiled

#

looks like the most popular 120mm fan is 19db

#

so i guess this is close to as good as it gets, the current problem i have is my mobo only has 1 free PWM port

#

so i forked it to 2 to control the huge 140mm intakes but the exhaust and top fan are goin full speed 24/7

#

do i have to do something specific to get the intakes to change speed based on temps?

prime raptor
#

Umm...

#

You shouldn't need too

#

set them at a speed that you can't really hear and leave it there

#

Faster speeds shouldn't affect temps much, intake wise

rose eagle
#

how do i change their speed?

#

the intakes are fine, its the exhausts that are loud

#

but those are what i wouldnt want to throttle..

prime raptor
#

Depends on your motherboard, I guess

#

Probably in the BIOS

rose eagle
#

oh these are the 3 pin fans

#

so im sol for now

prime raptor
#

They SHOULD have voltage regulation

rose eagle
#

in bios?

prime raptor
#

Yeah

rose eagle
#

well i hate to mess with exhaust

#

i avoided major LED cause of wife but she just said "why would that bother me?"

#

x_x

#

now i has a sad, lol

prime raptor
#

LED's are for nubes anyways

rose eagle
#

i want a couple white ones

#

nothing in my case has light except the RTX

prime raptor
#

You need to turn that LED off

rose eagle
#

the board is puke brown, i need to wait til im ready to upgrade my system ;P

#

pffff

#

is sexy ๐Ÿ˜„

#

and adjusts based on temp!

That's what you get for liking girls

zealous bridge
#

anyone has any clue to why my 1080 isnt giving me a steady 100fps?

#

i have a 1080 8gb, i7 8700x neither are overclocked

#

should give me a steady 100fps right?

unborn epoch
#

What game what res what fps

steep gust
#

@zealous bridge

Resolution, settings, and game?

#

@rose eagle You can control 3 pin fans

Set them to DC in the BIOS and you'll have some minor control

zealous bridge
#

its at battlefield 1

steep gust
#

Resolution?

zealous bridge
#

1920 1080

steep gust
#

Also framerate is CPU based not GPU generally

zealous bridge
#

is it?

#

well i got a good cpu so idk how its that low

steep gust
#

7800x isn't the greatest CPU

Do you have enough RAM?

zealous bridge
#

16gb

#

8700*

steep gust
#

2x8?

zealous bridge
#

yes

#

it should be a normal 100fps right?

steep gust
#

Check task manager while playing, you should be able to get 100fps

#

Something might be tanking your CPU in the background

zealous bridge
#

got it running on the background now

steep gust
#

I ran a 1080 / 8600k @4.9ghz and got a solid 150fps+ on 1080p

zealous bridge
#

while running processor uses 14%

#

my ram uses 63% tho

steep gust
#

Normal for battlefield 1 / V to use nearly 10GB of RAM

zealous bridge
#

yeah but if battlfield uses 4gb out of 16?

steep gust
#

That is 25%

zealous bridge
#

not 60

steep gust
#

You can see what is using your RAM from task manager

zealous bridge
#

what is nvidea container

steep gust
#

Driver stuff

zealous bridge
#

nothing weird is on their

#

just discord, origin, steam and battlefield

steep gust
#

While gaming?

zealous bridge
#

yes

#

makes me wonder if one of my ram isnt correctly connected

steep gust
#

Your CPU should be getting high usage

#

If your RAM isn't installed right, it doesn't work and won't show up in windows

#

Do you have any power saving features enabled?

zealous bridge
#

not that i know of

#

well i got 2 sticks right

#

could it be that one isnt correctly plugged in?

steep gust
#

๐Ÿค”

Set task manager to always on top and battlefield 1 to windowed / borderless

Chance CPU graph to logical cores, you should also see a 4.0ghz+ boost clock

#

A stick not installed correctly will not show up in Windows if there was an issue

zealous bridge
#

how do i change the cpu graph?

steep gust
#

Right click

zealous bridge
#

dont see a boost clock?

#

i dont have a seccond monitor so the usage of the cpu goes down instantly when i alt tab out of it

steep gust
#

So your CPU is always at 3.6ghz or whatever the stock is?

#

Borderless mode

zealous bridge
#

no the cpu goes down if it doensnt need that much

#

its on 3.9 now

steep gust
#

Set task manager to always on top

Then you can run it while gaming

zealous bridge
#

usees 3.85 ghz

#

arround 50% of the cpu

#

ram 53%

steep gust
#

Clock speed / load will change a lot in game

I don't know how well battlefield 1 is optimized and how it is, so you might just have to reduce CPU dependent settings to get higher FPS.

#

How is your GPU fairing while gaming?

zealous bridge
#

85%

#

im on 80 fps now but when it goes below 60 battlefield gives this warning that my fps is to low

steep gust
#

You shouldn't drop below 60 at 1080p

#

Or really around 80-100 with your rig

#

If you are okay with overclocking

Download MSI after burner and max voltage / power limit sliders

It won't damage your GPU and it'll automatically boost higher thanks to GPU Boost no longer bouncing off power / voltage limits

zealous bridge
#

okay i alreayd have afterburner just dont know how it works

#

you jsut up the core clock and memeory clock?

granite kestrel
#

That won't be stable at all

zealous bridge
#

so what should it be?

granite kestrel
#

gotta up them bit by bit

#

+10 > test loads

#

repeat

zealous bridge
#

is there a reset button ? xD

#

nvm foudn it

granite kestrel
#

Check out a video on overclocking

zealous bridge
#

idk if i really need to overclock tho

#

i mean, with a 1080 i should have a normal 100fps without overclocking right

steep gust
#

Max power limit and voltage limit

#

Wouldn't bother with core / memory unless you have time to kill

zealous bridge
#

i cant change the core voltage

steep gust
#

Maxing the power limit will let GPU Boost 3.0 go higher

#

You should have a voltage slider woahthink

zealous bridge
#

look at the screenshot its gray

#

wont let me move it

#

i can change the power limit

steep gust
#

104 power limit

zealous bridge
#

yeah

steep gust
#

Is this a laptop?

zealous bridge
#

no

#

first time i build a pc ๐Ÿ˜„

steep gust
#

You should have a power limit of like 112+

#

Do you have all the plugs to your GPU in?

8+6 or 8+8 pin?

zealous bridge
#

sorry i dont know what you mean

steep gust
#

Hmm discord get your shit together

#

Guess you cant embed pictures

#

Are all of them plugged in?

zealous bridge
#

well if one wasnt it wouldnt work right

steep gust
#

It would

#

Just be power limited

zealous bridge
#

im looking at it right now and it looks like they are connected

steep gust
#

It can draw 75w from the PCIe slot and 150w from the 8pin

Does it have multiple connectors or a single 8pin?

zealous bridge
#

mulitiple

steep gust
#

Hmm

zealous bridge
#

multiple*

steep gust
#

You should have a higher power limit

#

What GPU model is it?

#

You might have to enable some advanced setting in after burner to unlock the sliders fully

Its been awhile since I'm used it

zealous bridge
#

MSI GeForce GTX 1080 GAMING X 8G

#

i can change core voltage now

steep gust
#

Huh guess it only has a power limit of 104

Since I doubt you want to risk killing it, I wouldn't recommend a shunt mod or flashing a new BIOS

#

Max the voltage slider

Since it isn't like CPUs and won't let you kill it

zealous bridge
#

the core voltage you mean?

steep gust
#

Yeah

#

It's a % not the actual voltage

zealous bridge
#

yeah its 100% now

steep gust
#

Changing the true core voltage requires hard mods

zealous bridge
#

lets not get into that ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

#

so now i just test battlefield?

steep gust
#

Hmm

#

It should help a little bit

#

Make sure to set core / memory to +0

#

While GGDR5X might handle +1000 on it due to ECC, it'll run like shit

+1000 on core would mean new world record

prime jasper
#

anyone got an idea why when i queue for a bf1 game, i get kicked in the loading menu

steep gust
#

Playing on the 10hr free test?

prime jasper
#

no full game

#

im restarting origin now and i will update you

#

i am still getting kicked

#

i tried googling it but didnt fidn anything

steep gust
#

Is this on Xbox thonk

prime jasper
#

no

#

xbox dvr works on pc too its just i like to use it when something cool happens and i record the last 30 seconds

#

doesnt hurt my performance too bad either

steep gust
#

Shadowplay would work better

Doesn't seem like it would cause issues

#

I would recommend disabling it to test

prime jasper
#

i am repairing bf1 through origin to see if it doesa nything

#

am gonna switch to shadowplay ithink its better as well

unborn epoch
#

format

prime jasper
#

i enabled bf1 on my firewall for everything (private and public)

and i am running it as administrator

yes it seems to be workign now

Wtf yo... All this tech talk when I'm asleep

pastel lily
#

i need to change my ram, too many BSOD

#

whats the best one you guys suggest?

#

running i7 8700K, 2080Ti

steep gust
#

You have figured out the RAM is the issue?

#

Guessing your BSOD is a whea_ uncorrectable_error

Which is a CPU stability issue

rose eagle
#

The hell...kb won't let me into bios

#

Had to move ports

#

Adjusting chassis fans speed in bios seems to have no effect..

#

shouldnt it be instant while i nbios?

#

Nevermind it's my loud as shit 212 Evo fan...

#

Nice and it's got some proprietary clip on the fan you can't take off

unborn epoch
#

buy noctua pls

rose eagle
#

Monies!

#

I could set the fan to automatic so it's quieter not under load

#

Right now it's just on full

steep gust
#

What

#

You can mount whatever fan you want to a hyper 212

unborn epoch
#

have you tried speedfan?

#

assuming your cpu fan is connected to the motherboard

#

also how is the 120mm evo fan loduer than your 80mm fans

steep gust
#

He most likely had it set to PWN when it's a 3 pin fan

unborn epoch
#

probably because the 80mm fans are clogged up and not spinning tbh

steep gust
#

So 100% all the time

unborn epoch
#

ya

steep gust
#

Change it to DC and get some control

unborn epoch
#

@rose eagle PLS

rose eagle
#

negative i have not

#

nick, i has new case yo

#

it def wasnt a problem before ;D

#

i have fotos!!

unborn epoch
#

then probably what BetrayedPredator said

rose eagle
#

see, i fixed problem and put it up high on a desk

unborn epoch
#

that's pretty gud

rose eagle
#

minus the 2012 old ass brown board ๐Ÿ˜„

unborn epoch
#

also you can easily replace that cpu fan if you need to

rose eagle
#

the screws dont come out of the clip..

#

its all in 1

pastel lily
#

im 100% sure its my RAM's fault. memtest and other diag confirms it.

unborn epoch
#

it just needs the good ol' tiewrap hack

rose eagle
#

like the fan is fkin mounted to the clip

unborn epoch
#

ya

#

take the entire thing off

rose eagle
#

"Change it to DC and get some control" ?

#

wut

rose eagle
#

oh LOL

#

nice..

unborn epoch
#

it's possible the mobo has a pwm/dc setting

rose eagle
#

its 3pin fans

unborn epoch
#

if it's a 3pin it's missing the pwm pin so pwn doesn't do anything

#

that's why you have to set it to dc control

rose eagle
#

wait, 3 pin fans are the ones i dont care about now

#

they're quiet

#

its the cpu fan and its def 4pin pwn plugged in correctly so i just need th throttle it during idle

#

my bios has a setting for a target temp

#

instead of just full on

unborn epoch
#

so it's just a shitty fancurve?

rose eagle
#

no its set full auto in bios

#

full on

#

that not normal?

unborn epoch
#

ehh, i dont know what's normal anymore, my noctua fans spin a max of 200rpm

rose eagle
#

im OCd so i mean i dont want to not run the fan full blast..

#

the temps get to 75c on OCCT burn tests

unborn epoch
#

that's not bad

rose eagle
#

small wiggle room but not a lot..

unborn epoch
#

but set it to auto then, not full

rose eagle
#

the 212 evo is the best economical cooler that exists

unborn epoch
#

this is true, or a mugen maybe

rose eagle
#

i need somethin to light up the orange fans, they arent LED. .was just a basic shot with flash on

unborn epoch
#

scythe mugen 5 is a bit more expesnive actually

#

30eu for evo 212, 50 for mugen 80 for top noctua coola

rose eagle
#

yea, i was only in damage control mode on buying this

#

my fan stopped completely

#

the stock 2012 fan ๐Ÿ˜„

unborn epoch
#

should be decent enough, pretty much all fans are noisy at 100%

rose eagle
#

but i dont think it so much failed as much as died to dust

#

im trying to find the coolermaster model of fan on this

unborn epoch
#

that is possible yeah

rose eagle
#

my 140mm and 120mm fans set to full on are nowhere near as loud as this

#

all combined

#

like i hold my finger on the fkin coolermaster fan and its super quiet

unborn epoch
#

well i showed you the tie-wrap trick

rose eagle
#

i would need to buy a 120mm 4 pin fan

unborn epoch
#

wait

#

the clips can be screwed off from the fan

rose eagle
#

oh yea? i guess its buried under fake plastic

unborn epoch
#

ya just take the clip off the heatsink

#

it's plastic, you can bend it a bit im sure

rose eagle
#

i saw the tips of the screws but the heads are missing

unborn epoch
#

wait

rose eagle
#

i just had it off yea

unborn epoch
#

they took off the heads?

rose eagle
#

no i mean they're just "under plastic"

#

so i dont know

#

it looks like they screwed the fan in, then mounted the clip onto the fan and glued the pieces together

unborn epoch
#

D:

#

i've never actually touched an evo 212

rose eagle
#

ahhh ha

#

i founds a vidya

unborn epoch
#

ohhh

rose eagle
#

its just some sticky buns

unborn epoch
#

i see, they glewed on rubber pads for vibration

#

im sure you can take them off

#

still a shitty move though

#

looks just like m3 pads, you can take them off and put them back later, 99% sure

rose eagle
#

if i change the fan out that prob just means worse cooling

unborn epoch
#

depends on what brand

rose eagle
#

24.9db with 82.9 cfm

#

do i really NEED all that i guess is the question

#

i can play around with the fan tool and throttle it and watch temps?

unborn epoch
#

there's also a question of air pressure and air flow

#

you need pressure because it's hugging a radiator

#

sure

#

i've been using speedfan forever, except now since asus does it just fine

#

worst thing that can happen is your pc crashes ๐Ÿ˜„

i dunno, this 3770k can get hot lol

#

i saw 100c before i shut it down myself

#

i think the thermal rating for shutdown on this fker is 105

#

they dont make shit like they used to ๐Ÿ˜„

well the smaller you go the more fragile it gets

rose eagle
#

tell that to ticks

unborn epoch
#

i rather stomp ticks tbh

#

backing up my things, format incoming!

WOOP

readying up for BFV and generally a working machine

rose eagle
#

yea im clean and ready to go, even changed entire case!

#

PSU should be here tues

#

does a 850w psu take more power to run than a 650 if you arent putting it under load?

unborn epoch
#

depends on efficiency

rose eagle
#

a 650 G3 vs 850

#

i bought too high a PSU just because it was on sale

#

but if im going to be "wasting" electricity thats not cool

unborn epoch
#

650 g3 vs 850 g3?

rose eagle
#

yea

#

the question is do they run the exact same to power the exact same PC? the 850 isnt "wasteful" ?

unborn epoch
#

let's see

#

it doesn't work like that

rose eagle
#

thats what i wanted to hear

unborn epoch
#

psu's have an efficiency rating

rose eagle
#

if you have a 500w and 1000w 100% exact same efficiency but only power 450w worth of components

unborn epoch
#

so x% is always lost

#

x% of 850 is more than x% of 650
