technology

[red ingot]

yeah that's a real waste

[prime jasper]

something about those nordic nations and welfare

they love helping people

i mean, having some abusers is worth it to have a lot of funds on hand for those that need it

[red ingot]

idk how having abusers puts more funds into the hands of those that need it

[prime jasper]

bro, in my state, you cant even get food stamps unless youre working or full time student. even when youre a full time student you likely wont get them

the whole point of food stamps is to help those without jobs

[red ingot]

Yeah

[unborn epoch]

Can I buy crack with foodstamps

[rose eagle]

probably

[lofty light]

How many food stamps ya got brother?

[prime jasper]

5

you can buy anything with foodstamps

just sell it for 50pc of value

[honest patrol]

Lol no food stamps isn't for people who don't work. Its for people who don't make enough money to live

Because what's the use of helping someone who doesn't even help themself

At less they have a disability of course

[prime jasper]

people lose their jobs

[honest patrol]

As far as I know people who are single or don't have a job can have Temporary 1-2 month Food stamps

But usually don't get approved

[mystic drum]

I make too much money to get food stamps, a whopping $771 a month.

[wheat gulch]

such technology

[tawny hemlock]

i cant play online on bfV, it says i need to update i downloaded it for 20 minutes ago

[wheat gulch]

restart origin and you might need to update it again

[tawny hemlock]

i pressed the manual update and it said i was up to date with it

I've restarted my pc and repaird the files too

[fiery smelt]

you need to uhh... update it

[tawny hemlock]

I've done that

alot of times now

[prime jasper]

run a repair, on the game of thats a option

[tawny hemlock]

I've done that too

[prime jasper]

and what happens

when you start the game ?

[tawny hemlock]

it says i need to update it to play online

[fiery smelt]

does it give you a button

to update

[tawny hemlock]

nope

[fiery smelt]

welp, idk then

[tawny hemlock]

it just says i need to exit the game and update it

guess I'll have to re download the whole game then...

[fiery smelt]

did you recently switch from free trial to premiere or buying the game?

[tawny hemlock]

I got it the first day it came out

[fiery smelt]

yeah i have no idea then :/

weird aaf

[tawny hemlock]

it says error code 10 now...

[pastel sierra]

Would it be possible to modify the relevant files for the game, so that I that I can see the average rank of both teams when pulling up the scoreboard (either via the TAB-button or through the menu)? I feel like I have been in matches where the teams have been really disproportionate in terms of rank, and I would like to find out if I am correct or if it is just confirmation bias.

[north crow]

@pastel sierra Modifying game files is against the TOS. I would recommend against it.

Which is also why I removed the thread you made on the subreddit 😛

[pastel sierra]

Fair enough, it is just frustrating to feel like the odds are stacked against you, which is why I wanted to see if the feeling was at least justified or if I just sucked. Haha.
Maybe this could be a future feature?

[north crow]

You should definitely post a suggestion about it on the forums!

[keen forge]

Not sure if this counts as tech but this seems like the most relevant channel for it - BFV crashes every so often randomly (the audio cuts out then a couple seconds later the game closes itself). I read somewhere that this might be because I’ve overclocked my cpu - is this the case?

[prime jasper]

Maybe, verify your game files

[rose eagle]

@keen forge do you monitor your temps with hwmonitor and did you test your overclock with OCCT by letting it run for 10 minutes?

If you can't run it 10 min it's not a stable setting and bfv taxes all CPUs hard

[keen forge]

It’s a stable overclock

I don’t monitor temps any more but I used to - only gets bad in AC (because it’s properly vigorous on the cpu)

[fiery smelt]

I don't know why it would be due to an overclock

If the overclock is stable

We're long past the time when ingame physics were linked to clockspeed

[crude storm]

@keen forge take a look here, https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Game-Keeps-Crashing-don-t-know-what-to-do-HELP/m-p/7164680#M615

bringing everything down to clockspeeds and testing should give you an answer, if not, then you are not alone

+base

[red trellis]

i need help i update and cannot play the game because "Display name field missing"

[unkempt mirage]

How much ram is recommended for playing bfv on pc?

[brazen burrow]

8+

you should have 16

[plush smelt]

16

dual channel

[crude storm]

yeah dual channel seems to make a big differenz

[rose eagle]

im curious how many people are out there with 1 stick o f ram

usually sites dont sell anything except kits

[crude storm]

people who cant afford it at the moment and want to upgrade later

[rose eagle]

well.. and then you have the problem that motherboards have specific slots for dual chan

that would be the biggest thing id love to know.. people with ram installed in the wrong slots

like for my board it's 2 and 4

1 and 3 wont run dual chan afaik

unless all 4 are used

[crude storm]

most of the people i know buy their rigs "build"

[rose eagle]

thats crazy to me

if you have a super high end build you want that satisfaction of doing it yourself and have the money

and if you are on a budget you're trying to save as much money as possible

who are these mysterious middle ground people? 😄

[latent light]

it's poopy

never get single channel ram

[unkempt mirage]

Alright, just checking cus im getting a pc hopefully next year so i wanted to make sure 16gb was enough

[storm osprey]

16gb is the safe bet for modern games

8gb will be fine just 90% of games

[unkempt mirage]

Yea

Yea, im not gonna buy a bunch of AAA games but i want 16 cus of bfv and i wanna record

[storm osprey]

yea bfv is one of the games that 16gb rec

[unkempt mirage]

I thoughto

So*

[unborn epoch]

ur all butts

[latent light]

I don't think BFV can utilize more than 10GB

but 16GB is considered a sweet spot

[raw turtle]

i have 16gb skill trident rgb and it looks dope af

[storm osprey]

ew

rgb

[fiery oracle]

Rgb gives a 20% performance boost. just ask linus.

[raw turtle]

i have the sharkoon tg5 rgb case

its dope

if i have a loadingf screen i just watch into my beautiful pc

just gpu is shit

[storm osprey]

whats your specs?

[brazen burrow]

sum1 say rgb ram hold the ram?

now thats my type of order

[storm osprey]

lol wtf

you just want pre rgb

[brazen burrow]

no i want rgb ram without ram

[prime jasper]

in 20 years you'll all cringe at liking RGB

that is the beauty of fashion trends

[storm osprey]

i never liked rgb

i dont have anything but an led strip in my case

[rose eagle]

i really love how the rgb lights up the orange fins of the cougar fans tho ;P

but yes, good ole life, one day something in, next it's out

[prime jasper]

rgb and windows is why i cant find a clean plain black case that is mostly solid

dont want no brushed metal look, dont want honeycombs everywhere

[steep gust]

but brushed metal > non brushed

and those 'honeycombs' are for airflow, which by the way is fucking important

[prime jasper]

i dont want that on top of my case

they can ventilate on the sides

ill just design my own case once i find someone with the right tools

since it's apparently too hard for people to design a plain black case

[steep gust]

You mean its not profitable

They make what sells

[latent light]

i been looking hard for a mechanical keyboard that isn't loud and doesn't need software

[ocean valve]

Most compagnies have a silent mechanical product available (razer ,logitech, steelseries, corsair, etc)

[mental hatch]

also im pretty sure most companies have the ability to remove keys and add o rings to make them quieter

[steep gust]

It depends on the switch type you want

IIRC blues are loud af

[latent light]

i have razer green switches

they are loud

[mental hatch]

That's because they're blues

Just made my razer

[storm osprey]

Silent switches are the best, they have rubber stems so when they bottom AND top out they are silent

[steep gust]

Yeah but then you lose some of the feedback

[prime jasper]

just use a rubber dome keyboard

i switch back after years of using mech boards

i like the feel better when you buy higher quality keyboards

i got the razer ornata and i removed the little aluminum tab or whatever that makes it create a mech keyboard click imitation

it's quieter now and feels great

[storm osprey]

Razer ornata is just membrane with that metal tab

[untold geode]

i played fortnite in 4k at 100fps on a gtx 1050 2gb with a amd phenon II x4 910

:/

i feel lucky

[prime jasper]

ornata is a great membrane keyboard

feels really good

has nice travel

i use to have a phenom II chip. phenom ii x6 1055t

gave it to a professor

[untold geode]

is it normal for my specs to play fortnite in 4k at such high framrates

[steep gust]

its Fortnite

Also I don't believe that for one second

How did you set it to 4k? Monitor? Custom Resolution? DSR?

[untold geode]

idc if you dont

[steep gust]

I meant more as in its bullshit

A 1050 doesn't even have enough VRAM for 4k

[untold geode]

idk but it works

[steep gust]

Yeah a quick google search shows unless you made you 1050 become a 1080TI or better its not hitting those framerates

So how did you 'set' it to 4k?

[untold geode]

idk i didn't i just rnadomly enabend sr for 4k

*dsr

with smootnees at 0

[steep gust]

Do you play in Borderless?

or windowed?

[untold geode]

and trie dnad i put my settigns at high with shadows on medium and fullscreen

[steep gust]

Also I find DSR doesn't actually work for me most of the time

Create a custom resolution through NV Control panel then set Fortnite to it

[untold geode]

just put smoothness at 0 for a sharp less jaggy look

it helps me see better

[steep gust]

The whole point of DSR is for the smoothness

[untold geode]

i use for the less jaggy blurry look

because it gives me eye pains bc it's bluurry

[steep gust]

Set the ingame resolution to 3840x2160

[untold geode]

it's set to 3840x2160

[steep gust]

For DSR to actually work

[untold geode]

then i wouldn't even said 4k my dude

[steep gust]

4k is 3840x2160

[untold geode]

ik dude

[steep gust]

You have to enable DSR and set the ingame resolution higher for it to work

[untold geode]

2880x1620 is 3k

[steep gust]

If I had Fortnite downloaded I'd prove to you that you aren't getting 100fps since I doubt my 1080 can do that

[untold geode]

im so confused you told me to enable it when i said it's already enbaled

also it was 80-90 my bad

[steep gust]

You have DSR set to 4x?

Then reboot, and set the ingame resolution to 3840x2160 and watch your FPS tank

[untold geode]

omg i already said it was enabled

to it

[steep gust]

Its more because that rig can't even do 100fps @1080p

From a google search

[untold geode]

thats google

[steep gust]

On an 8700k @5.0ghz with 32GB of RAM, a 1050 averaged 53fps at high 1080p

[untold geode]

tf are you looking at

[steep gust]

At 1440p high it got 33fps

https://www.techspot.com/article/1557-fortnite-benchmarks/

[untold geode]

i get 80 fps on high

[steep gust]

and at 4k it got 11

[untold geode]

i think your just saying that

[steep gust]

I think I have benchmarks

and proof

While I haven't even seen an average FPS stat from software from you

[untold geode]

your saying all that when your not even looking at my screen

just bc benchmarks say that does not mean it's true

[steep gust]

Okay

So Fortnite demands 2GB of VRAM at a minimum

Now you are needing to store files that are 4x as large in that same buffer

Which means 8+GB of VRAM

[untold geode]

what requiremnts are you looking at

bc it clearly says reccomended

is a gtx 660

my usally benchamrks 😐 which i hate bc they lie

[steep gust]

https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/en-US/faq

[untold geode]

but i superseed them

[steep gust]

Nvidia GTX 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7870 equivalent DX11 GPU

2 GByte VRAM

Core i5 2.8 Ghz

8 GByte RAM

Windows 7/8/10 64-bit +  Mac OSX Sierra (10.13.6+)

For Save the World

Which tbh is probably harder to run than BR

and yeah a 660 has 2GB of VRAM

[untold geode]

stop being a dick

[steep gust]

Start posting factual claims

[untold geode]

I dont care about your dumb facts if get that fps i get that fps

so just stop

[steep gust]

I'm sorry your low-end GPU and AM3 CPU (that is 4c and like 3.2ghz) can't run 4k 100fps

[untold geode]

being a dick

JUST LEAVE ME ALONE

[steep gust]

It takes a top of the line (2080ti and 8700k+) to really do 4k gaming

[untold geode]

I SAID LEAVE ME ALONE

[steep gust]

👍

[untold geode]

@steep gust also the 1050 has 2gb of vram

[latent light]

omg

the 1TB Crucial MX500 ssd is only $119 on newegg now

sale ends in 4 hours though

[signal forge]

JollyisshCyclone post a screenshot with the FPS counter turned on

Literally would have saved everyone the trouble of arguing with you

[storm osprey]

ssd prices are gonna keep dropping

trust me

wait

[signal forge]

Also if my 960 4gb cant hit those numbers the no way your 1050 2gb could get those numbers

[storm osprey]

960 and 1050 are pretty equal

[signal forge]

^

[storm osprey]

as long as you dont run into vram limitation issues they should be the same

[signal forge]

True

Though the 960 is a tad better is many titles

[storm osprey]

1050 probably being slightly better since newer drivers

[signal forge]

True

[storm osprey]

granted, enough vram headroom

[signal forge]

Vram is gonna be the major limiting factor

Itll likely be the thing that makes the 1050 so much worse than the 960, it simply cant store all the textures

[latent light]

there is a 2gb and 4gb model of the 960

2gb more common

[signal forge]

Yea but im just refering to the 4gb cause thats what im currently using

[latent light]

funny that the 4gb model of the 960 has real vram while the 970 has only 3.5gb

kind of backwards

[signal forge]

Yea lol

For the time that wqs more than enough though

[storm osprey]

yea did anyone here actually do the 50 dollar thing?

[latent light]

i think it was $30

[storm osprey]

one of those

[prime jasper]

i remember 3.5GB

[storm osprey]

yea it was 3.5gb of ram, .5 was shit some ram

people sued or some shit and got nvidia to offer 30 or 50 bucks to people who got a 970

[latent light]

it was .5GB of like DDR3

while the 3.5GB was GDDR5

[prime jasper]

[analog linden]

made the 4k jump, hypeee. paired with freesync, it should work pretty well

vega 64 for $399 + 3 games(The Division 2, RE:2, DMC5). had to jump on that one

[latent light]

Only $400 wtf

[analog linden]

like the best free game bundle I've ever seen

yeah, it's a reference, but Newegg has a sale going on for them

[latent light]

A lot of people put waterblocks on reference cards

[analog linden]

I have no plans for that. But apparently vega 64's are overvolted by AMD, and you gotta undervolt it.

so it wont throttle

[latent light]

Yeah they can undervolt a lot

My RX 580 undervolts by -75mV pretty easily

[analog linden]

I'm more excited for the AMD software, especially the new update it got

[latent light]

[north crow]

@analog linden that game deal is great

I got an RX 570 for my office pc for 180€ and it came with two 60€ games

(could choose two of those 3 you mentioned)

[analog linden]

yeah its crazy

and they should be steam/uplay keys

I think the nvidia games are only on the geforce experience

[north crow]

does geforce experience actually work as a launcher/game library?

[analog linden]

Yeah I think so

[north crow]

huh

[analog linden]

its pretty useless

[north crow]

I got AC Origins with my 1080 Ti but that went straight to steam

no geforce experience needed

but it was claimed through asus anyway

not nvidia

[analog linden]

the deal nvidia has on is monster hunter and some dumb Fortnite bundle

[idle crow]

https://i.imgur.com/PZFLQBd.jpg anyone know how to fix this visual glitch? it's rare but it happens to random allied and enemy soldiers alike, probably 1 in 5 games
and it's not EVERY ally or enemy, just like 1-4 from the server

[keen forge]

@crude storm thanks for the link, I brought my CPU down to base clock and thought that had fixed it until it crashed today

And someone mentioned AMD game deals, with my vega I got the division 2, resident evil 2 and one of the devil may crys

[idle crow]

nice

how does the vega perform? I haven't looked at any benchmarks

I'm in the market to build a new PC, battlefield v has exposed my aging components

[keen forge]

It performs beautifully, ultra settings at 1080 I get oodles of FPS

Plus I have a freesync monitor which is nice

It’s a 56, obviously the 64 will perform better, especially at a higher res

[idle crow]

for my new build I'm unsure as to whether I should target 1080p or 1440p, 1080p looks fine to me and I think it will be the standard for awhile

[prime jasper]

going for 1440p is like buying a 720p monitor back in the day when 1080p was available

wait for 4k midrange cards to come out

that is when you upgrade up to 4k

[idle crow]

I heard AMD is coming out with a new cpu line in Q3 or 4 of 2019, maybe I'll wait

people say 4k is a "meme", and too demanding and hard to notice it when you're playing games

I don't know from personal experience, I've always played on 1080 60hz

[prime jasper]

1080p is fine for games

looks better than console

[idle crow]

I want to aim for 144hz, my components are struggling at 60hz for triple a games

at 1080 I should say

[prime jasper]

144hz monitor will feel fine even at 60fps

i use one, i know

it's not like if you hit below 144fps that it feels like 60hz all of a sudden

i dunno why people started this meme

[idle crow]

I have trouble running battlefield currently what I'm after is just smoothness

I want a lot of frames

[prime jasper]

i use a 1060 paired with a gtx 1060

i set fps to 60fps

stable

[idle crow]

what cpu

[keen forge]

It’s usually worse to have components more powerful than your because of visual tearing etc

[idle crow]

I have a gtx 1060 also

[prime jasper]

4690k

set fps to 60

and overclock your cpu to reduce frame dips

[idle crow]

I have a 4670k

I don't think I have adequate cooling for OCing

[prime jasper]

buy a aio water cooler like i did

[idle crow]

sorry 4670 not k

I would call it a scam, I got a lot of use out of it

[sonic osprey]

I tried the new rtx performance with my monitor split up to 2x 27" 60hz panels, it was pretty awful to try to aim after been playing years on 144hz, but the rtx fps was quite nice with high details + low rtx on 1920x1080, about 80+fps

but just could not play the game with 60hz, impossible

[prime jasper]

git gud

i play splatoon 2 and i have no issues playing a game at 60hz

[vague wolf]

as long as you never taste 144hz than 60hz feels gr8

[quartz dew]

Anyone installed the latest AMD Drivers? My PC goes black when i log in

[sonic osprey]

if you ever play overwatch, you know there is the end of the round slow motion, 60hz feels like that after you have been gaming on 144hz, except a little bit faster

[raw turtle]

@idle crow wait for ryzen 3 generation

they will kill everything

any good and cheap 144hz monitors? maybe with free sync

[idle crow]

@raw turtle I don't think I can wait til Q3/Q4? of 2019 I'm close to pulling the trigger on this https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/CloudProjector/saved/9ZN4qs

[raw turtle]

yeah this ryzen is a beast for its price

ive got a ryzen 7 2700x and battlefield runs a loot smoother compared to my i5 4690k

[idle crow]

it's time I upgrade at least a bit I want this smoothness you refer to, I don't like not being able to kill someone all of a sudden when I get a massive fps drop because 3 different explosions went off all while I'm surrounded by smoke 😛

I could spend more but I want to get some more use out of my 1060

[raw turtle]

ive got a 1060 too lol

[idle crow]

oh, right on

[raw turtle]

i play high at 60fps +

i capped at 60 fps cuz ive just got 60hz monitor

[idle crow]

and it's a pretty consistent 60?

I know some people complain about rotterdam

[raw turtle]

yep it is

multicore is perfect for battlefield

but i want to upgrade to a navi card if they will be so good as the leaks are

because i think intel and nvidia dont care abnout their customers just want to make money

[idle crow]

they're the top dogs right? no need to 😉

I'll keep an eye on navi too

[raw turtle]

freesync monitors cost way less than g sync monitors... so its a sec good point

[idle crow]

yep

[raw turtle]

and 250 $ for a vega 64 with 15% more power sounds nice, but i think it will be like 400$ or 500$

[idle crow]

gotta run, thanks for the advice, cya

[raw turtle]

bye 😄

[latent light]

Navi RX 3080 won't be more than $300

It's such a cheap architecture to make, AMD can easily price it that low

i wish the leaks become true

then i would navi rx 3080 sli

[sonic osprey]

if you really think ANY company cares about their customers, you are totally wrong, all companies are basically set up for making money, they might appear that they "care", but they will always just maximize their profits, either buy lowering production costs or increasing margins

You're saying overclocking = worse performance in frostbite ?

I'm confused

Well was and i think still is where on ryzen if you oc your cpu audio will like cut out peridoically i have this problem and it says some bioses for mobos will fix it but i dont have a working usb drive to test with

Ryzen seems to be a petty good bet IMO, especially midrange, where I feel they handed intel’s ass to them. Those extra cores and all-round overclock-ability is what tickled my fancy

5.2ghz all cores is really hard on the 9900k

[red ingot]

yeah even my 9700k is hard to oc

no

[red ingot]

ah yeahj

u were saying u want

another 240mm

lol

[sonic osprey]

yeah, I think it would be enough for both cpu+gpu and some overclock

[red ingot]

but hot damn haha

[sonic osprey]

as with delidding I would already get 4-5c lower with single rad

My game is running worse than Stephen Hawking despite having a 1080ti and overclocked 6700k (4.5ghz), what gives?

each patch has made it progressively worse

my FPS is high (160-200) but my frametimes are garbage

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoOlqec1cYo&feature=youtu.be headshot sound with no headshot damange, headshot kills with no sound, no rendering when ADS, massive lag spikes when ADS isn't 100% broken

2 patches ago half these issues didn't exist

[storm osprey]

My game is running worse than Stephen Hawking
lol my god

is that a handicapped, or a dead joke?

[hexed panther]

both?

[storm osprey]

even better

[latent light]

@hexed panther 90% of those are just game bugs

Found a Titanium PSU that's so effecient that it doesn't use a fan so it's dead quiet

[prime jasper]

it's a seasonic

it's not surprising

i got an older seasonic psu that i refuse to upgrade even though it isnt modular

ill make this thing last another 15 years as long as manufacturers don't change standards for power plugs

[last copper]

Still no fix for black screen after each round?

[steep gust]

@prime jasper Not recommended

PSU standards are constantly increasing

OCP, OTP, OVP, etc that might not be on older PSUs

[red ingot]

Yeah I have a platinum psu and the fan just about never kicks in

It has a fan but it doesn't kick in unless it gets hot enough which is rare

[steep gust]

Efficiency means very little

Generally the fan kicks in at a certain load

[red ingot]

Idk grim was saying he found a "titanium psu so efficient that the fan doesn't kick in"

🤷

[steep gust]

Yeah SeaSonic has a PSU with heafy heatsinks

[red ingot]

Idk whether mine kicks in at a certain load or temp but I think its temp

[steep gust]

Although you need airflow

[red ingot]

But I cant remember

All ik is it rarely kicks in

Which is kinda cool

[steep gust]

I mean temp and load are generally directly connected but not always

[red ingot]

Yeag

Yeah *

That's what I mean kinda hard to tell which but almost same dif anyways

[steep gust]

My PSU fan wont be heard over my GPU anyway

[red ingot]

Yeah exactly xD

Or my like 4 other freaking fans

[latent light]

that seasonic psu doesn't even have a fan

[steep gust]

Still requires airflow

It will pop OTP without

[prime jasper]

i dont upgrade to newest products often

the PSU will survive many years

[split storm]

Yep yep and yep

[latent light]

my ryzen 5 1600 and rx 580 combo runs ultra to 70-80 fps most of the time

[split storm]

Just formatted this pc too

Oh it ran absolutely fine before formatting and before the patches

[latent light]

ah so it's just the game itself

[split storm]

Yep

[red ingot]

F

[split storm]

I have graphs and FPS on

[latent light]

lowest my fps goes for me is like 55 fps on ultra, and no frametime higher than 25ms lol

[split storm]

Fps stays at 60 even when it stutters

[latent light]

check frametimes

frametimes are more important than fps

[split storm]

How do I do that?

rivatuner has a setting for it

[split storm]

Hmmm

Fixed it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osSMJRyxG0k&feature=youtu.be @steep gust

very interesting video of how corrupt intel is

[red ingot]

wait what

u mean borderless instead of fullscreen?

fullscreen is supposed to have better performance than borderless

[latent light]

yeah it is

[red ingot]

im so confused

oh yeah and there was a thing with intel way back in the 2000s right

where they gave kickbacks to manufacturers not to use AMD

and then they got fined millions once courts found out

[split storm]

Fullscreen is stuttery, borderless is smooth

[latent light]

intel also got a huge lawsuit for falsely advertising their Pentium 4 CPUs, showing false benchmarks that made them appear better than what they were

which led to them having to pay Pentium 4 users a fee

[red ingot]

Huh

Companies at their finest

[latent light]

In 2009, Intel aimed to remove Nvidia's access to PCI-E on Intel CPUs which means Nvidia wouldn't be compatible on motherboards that supported Intel CPUs.

gotta feel bad for those who bought the i5-8400

[steep gust]

Cinebench isn't good for comparing CPUs

[latent light]

How is it not? All youtubers use it lol

it's good for testing stability and benchmarking

[steep gust]

It's not good at stability since it's a single benchmark

And since it greatly benefits from core count which isnt the only marker for CPUs

[latent light]

https://i.gyazo.com/62fd0372a518856db5627f145debcc43.png

ashes of the singularity benchmark

[steep gust]

My 8600k @5.0ghz loses to a stock 2600 yet crushes it in games and single core workloads

[latent light]

well that's a $260 cpu vs a $160 one lmao

[steep gust]

Ashes of the Singularity is a good GPU test since it uses proper DX12

The 2600 was a lot more expensive when I bought an 8600k

As in it didn't exist

[latent light]

2600 was $199 when it launched

went down to $160 like 3 months after it launched

[steep gust]

That and I can daily an 8600k at 5.3ghz

While a 2600 is stuck at 4.2ghz or so if you win the silicon lottery

[latent light]

4.2 GHz is achievable on most 2600 cpus

some people get to 4.3

the 2600X can go to 4.4

[steep gust]

On a few cores

[latent light]

all cores

[steep gust]

I meant across all 6-8

[molten bramble]

I'm at 4.2Ghz on a C2Q, so it's definitely achievable on newer ones.

[steep gust]

Bullshit

4.4ghz at a safe voltage is some hardcore silicon lottery

I know people who degraded Rzyen 2 CPUs at 1.4v daily

Which is considered safe

[latent light]

did they die?

[steep gust]

As in no longer stable at the same frequency

[latent light]

a lot of the time that's a motherboard issue

[steep gust]

CPUs rarely ever die from overclocking

He did it in a Crosshair 7 hero

Aka the best X470 motherboard

[latent light]

max overclock across all cores seen on Ryzen 2 is 4.4ghz

[sonic osprey]

9900k has been oc'd to 7.6ghz on all cores

[steep gust]

http://hwbot.org/submission/3837469_der8auer_cinebench___r15_ryzen_7_2700x_2627_cb

5.6ghz with LN2

[latent light]

does de8auer get lucky all the time with silicon lottery

or does he get to handpick cpus

[steep gust]

Handpick

That and he can find the best chip

Since he can afford multiple

[latent light]

I got to 5.25 GHz stable on my old 4690K

[steep gust]

I need to buy a pot tbh

Dry ice isn't expensive

And LN2 is CHEAP once you have a dewar

[latent light]

if my 4690K could reach 5.25 stable all core on a 240mm rad, what do you think it could reach on LN2

[steep gust]

Scaling doesn't always work like that

[latent light]

why not

[steep gust]

Average on LN2 for a 4690k is 5.6ghz

Because that isnt how CPUs handle frequency / voltage

I can do 5.3ghz at 1.4v, and 5.5ghz wasn't stable at 1.5v on my 8600k

Now it might be if I had better cooling and tweaked sub voltages but work

[latent light]

windows booted for you at 5.5?

[steep gust]

Ye

Got through most of Cinebench

[latent light]

you can only kill a cpu by going over voltage limit right

[steep gust]

Heat

[latent light]

can't kill one by going high on the core clock

[steep gust]

Well you need more voltage for higher clocks

But yeah CPUs should be fine at high core clocks

The degradation from high core clocks would take a millennium

[latent light]

yeah I put my core clock multiplier to 45 on my R5 1600 for the hell of it but it automatically puts it to 39.25 or something like that

[steep gust]

If you try to force that through the BIOS it'll BSOD

[latent light]

I got a $80 B350 motherboard anyway, don't think max overclock is achievable on it

[steep gust]

It could be hitting some power or current limit if you left the voltage on auto

Oh yeah I have a $250 motherboard for my 8600k 😛

Maximus X Code

Would have got a Formula but it was out of stock and now discontinued

[latent light]

should of gotten a 8700K with a motherboard that expensive

[steep gust]

Which is a shame since the Maximus x Formula looks LEAGUES better than the XI Formula

My old motherboard had bent pins and was dead (not sure how I did it)

And I wont replace my motherboard for ages

[latent light]

isn't 9th gen intel the last upgrade for Z370?

[steep gust]

Depends on how Intel does it

[latent light]

10nm Sunny Cove is rumored to come out late next year

[steep gust]

But yeah it should be from past launches

Intel will have a new socket (LGA 1511 with a new pin layout) for 10nm

Technically they could add more power pins, but the 9900k is fine on Z370 motherboards

And node shrinks generally help efficiency

[latent light]

doesn't Z370 limit the 9900K

[sonic osprey]

if you gonna buy 9900k, get z390

[latent light]

yeah lol

[steep gust]

Yeah no

[sonic osprey]

there is some differences in performance between z370 and z390

[steep gust]

Z390 means nothing

Uh yeah USB 3.1 and integrated WiFi is the only difference between Z370 and Z390

[latent light]

https://i.gyazo.com/2679db31a7592a580f01ee832e762f2b.png

[steep gust]

There are motherboards on Z370 with better VRMs than most Z390 boards

[latent light]

Z370 does limit the 9900K some

[steep gust]

Because manufacturers are shipping Z390s with technical factory overclocks

[latent light]

[steep gust]

Different power limits than Intel spec

Also what motherboard

[latent light]

https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/984904-i9-9900k-on-z370/

found it on here

[steep gust]

It was a low end motherboard

[latent light]

9900K definitely uses a lot more wattage than any i7

so a high-end Z370 would be better

[steep gust]

A Maximis X Code has an 8 phase VRM (IIRC) with some solid mosfets

It'll handle a 9900k fine with airflow

As long as I dont try to draw 400w+ through it

A single 8pin might not enjoy that

[latent light]

https://static.techspot.com/articles-info/1730/bench/Power-2.png

damn the 9900K is power hungry

[steep gust]

I mean my dream would be to get a Z390 dark or Z390 Apex depending on what is better and do a hardcore custom

But I cant a custom loop and the acrylic milling I want

https://youtu.be/ozOm9NuSEQ0

Something like this would be amazing

[latent light]

the amount of torque screws is hilarious

but they are needed

[steep gust]

But yeah each one of those plates are probably $300+

And that means I would have to buy a separate motherboard for benchmarking

Since swapping hardware will be a pain in the ass with a loop like that

[latent light]

don't understand spending lots of money on benchmarking, de8auer will always be ahead

is your 8600K delidded?

[steep gust]

Nah

I need to

der8auer also gets paid to overclocking

[hazy latch]

https://answers.ea.com/t5/EA-General-Questions/Origin-login-failed-and-error-s/td-p/6879481

@steep gust probably won't be advantages to delidding next gen intel cpus since they are going to be soldered better than 9th gen

will probably be like ryzen and only see a 1-2C difference with a delid lmao

Can anyone help me get the advertised speeds on my RAM? Currently its running at 2133 but its advertised as 3200
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MTDEYHU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This is my RAM

[red ingot]

Try repair install.

And for your ram enable xmp in bios

2133 is default clock for bios but u have to enable xmp in bios to get the rated 3200

[opaque sapphire]

By XMP do you me D.O.C.P?

Thats what it shows in my BIOS

@red ingot

[red ingot]

Uhh tbh I dont know what docp is

But like when your ram is rated for a certain speed it means your manufacture has a specified profile for it

Which is usually xmp

Umm

@storm osprey @rose eagle

They should know.

I'm kind of not in a state for google fu

[gaunt arrow]

can anyone help me figure out why my mic isnt working for discord

I can hear people and i can talk in games but not discord

[red ingot]

Try restarting your mic

[storm osprey]

yea no idea what docp is

[red ingot]

Check your discord settings

Nyphon why are u retired

Wtf

[storm osprey]

im done arguing man

[red ingot]

reeee

[gaunt arrow]

ive tried all my discord setting and stuff idfk lol

[storm osprey]

@gaunt arrow theres windows settings too

[red ingot]

Holy

[rose eagle]

@opaque sapphire like said, you need to find out where your XMP profile is in your vendor specific bios

[red ingot]

Panda and nyphon are here

[storm osprey]

disable EVERYTHIN but the one you want on

[red ingot]

Wow

I'm impressed

You're welcome

[storm osprey]

you fraking tagged us

[gaunt arrow]

alright let me try that

[red ingot]

Tagged u

🤔

I'mma lose it

Goodbye boys

[storm osprey]

buyeaaa

[rose eagle]

every bios has it listed differently and knowing where to find it is important. Very imperative you load the XMP profile to set the timings correctly

unless your board sucks

[opaque sapphire]

@rose eagle well I activated the D.O.C.P and it matched the vendor specific bios so I guess I’m all set

All the timings, voltage, and MHz matched the vendor specs

[rose eagle]

did you download CPU-Z to confirm?

[opaque sapphire]

No I’m doing that now though

[rose eagle]

it will show you're in dual channel, timings, and speed

dual chan being the most important as some boards have slots 1 and 3 as DC, some are 2 and 4

my asrock was 2/4, this one is 1/3

[opaque sapphire]

Where would I find the max speed of it in CPU-Z?

It definitely says Dual channel too

[last copper]

no "max speed" for ram

because they're not equal

[opaque sapphire]

Okay well how do I tell if it’s running 3200MHz?

@last copper

[latent light]

task manager can tell you

[last copper]

DRAM frequency is half of the advertised ram frequency

[opaque sapphire]

Thanks @latent light

[last copper]

so 3200 will show 1600mhz

[rose eagle]

^

[opaque sapphire]

And I see now. It is working correctly!

[latent light]

open task manager, go to 'performance' tab and click on memory

[rose eagle]

also make sure your cpu is running full speed

my Asus defaulted mine to some "Asus settings" which limited it to 3.6ghz

and didnt enable boost

[opaque sapphire]

Base speed is 4.00 GHz which is fine cause its a Ryzen 7 2700x

@rose eagle

Ryzen should just let it fluctuate automatically but it shouldnt exceed 4.00 GHz because I didn't overclock it

[rose eagle]

yea prob just some intel thing

[red ingot]

Is it fixed

Yay

I done good

You're welcome

[turbid dove]

I’ve always been confused by number of cores in intel chips vs amd. It seems amd has more cores, but does that mean anything? I keep hearing Intel has hexacore CPU’s now, but hasn’t amd had octocore cpus for a while.

[latent light]

Ryzen 3 series uses 4 cores, Ryzen 5 uses 4 (with multi-threading) and 6 cores, Ryzen 7 uses 8 cores

[red ingot]

Bfv eats cores

Hardcore

[latent light]

best price/performance CPU money can buy as now is the Ryzen 5 2600

comes in around $160

@turbid dove one thing to note is that next gen Ryzen (comes out summer 2019) is likely going to have 6 cores for Ryzen 3, 8 cores for Ryzen 5 and 12 cores for Ryzen 7

and there will be an addition of Ryzen 9 with 16 cores

[turbid dove]

But a core in an intel chip and one in an amd are at there most simplest the same thing?

Is TR ryzen 9?

Or it’s own thing?

[latent light]

Intel IPC per core is around 5-10% faster than AMD but AMD chips are usually much better value

Threadripper is it's own line

[turbid dove]

Oh ok. Thanks.

[latent light]

Ryzen 5 2600 has 6 cores/12 threads and is usually found for around $160

it's supposed to compete with the i5-8400

which that i5 has 6 cores/6 threads

i5-8400 is around $40-60 more

but that's because low supply

it's usually $20 more than the R5 2600

[molten bramble]

Jeez... there's like a GeForce Game Ready Driver update every frigging day... 🤔

[latent light]

@sonic osprey my AM4 Ryzen motherboard uses XMP

[sonic osprey]

@latent light it depends on the manufactorer, if they have paid to intel to use xmp

[latent light]

AMD motherboards use DOCP to translate the Intel XMP profile to one that is compatible with it

[sonic osprey]

yes, because the xmp profiles are what are used to control the ram settings

there is no multiple standards supported there, it is just that some manufacturers dont want to pay royalties to intel to use the xmp in their software so they have to do it themselves

[molten bramble]

Oh ho, W10 feature update is finally downloading.

[steep gust]

Probably works for IT for some large company

[molten bramble]

I understood your question as being all-inclusive.

Personally, about $30-35K over the course of 25+ years.

That's PC-only though.

[steep gust]

Like $2500 for me in the past year

But it was also my first PC so

[molten bramble]

I've purchased a lot of Macs/Macbook Pros

[steep gust]

oof

[molten bramble]

And I've got an entourage of XBox consoles in the flat, lol.

[brazen burrow]

i got mine for a good deal so only about 1500-1600 for a 2200 setup

[steep gust]

Then it was $1600

Generally sale prices aren't one off and will be the normal price in coming weeks

Especially around black Friday

My rig cost a lot since I paid $650 for a 1080

[molten bramble]

$1.6K for what?

Ah, the video card is what was killing you then?

[steep gust]

Yeah I got bored of waiting

[molten bramble]

This 1050Ti does just fine for me.

[steep gust]

And the price was almost to MRSP before sales tax

[brazen burrow]

650 isnt terrible for a 1080

[steep gust]

When two months later it was $400

[brazen burrow]

now it is obviouisly

but thats cuz so many flooded the market after crypto and then rtx came out

[steep gust]

Turing was plagued by leak after leak and no factual information, so I bit the bullet

Worked fine since RTX was a flop

I'll probably buy another GPU in 2020 when Intel releases their and AMD has a new lineup

Hello guys , anyone else have the next map not loading bug? BF5 pc

[molten bramble]

Haven't encountered that. Have you looked on the Known Issues list or EA Answers HQ for an estimated fix?

@keen parrot Is it a consistent issue?

[keen parrot]

i havent found a fix for it

[molten bramble]

@keen parrot So you have found a new bug or you have a known bug that hasn't been fixed?

[keen parrot]

known issue

many people has it on the bf forums

[keen parrot]

thanks alot

@molten bramble

[molten bramble]

Yes?

Oh, no worries.

@keen parrot might try that.

[keen parrot]

gonna try to close nvidia experience first

[molten bramble]

Gotcha

[keen parrot]

if that doesnt work then the one you linked

[molten bramble]

@keen parrot Best of luck bud

[keen parrot]

@molten bramble thanks man

which nvidia drivers are you using?

[molten bramble]

Whoa... just had a critical system failure thanks to this new AORUS Engine.

First time I've had to boot to SM on W10.

Gigabyte's ware is so broken.

@keen parrot I play on XB1, not on PC, but I play other games on PC and I am running the latest 417.35 released on 12/12/2018.

[keen parrot]

@molten bramble tried uninstalling nvidia experience , didnt work

[molten bramble]

@keen parrot Not sure what to tell you bud, probably need to voice the issue to @EA at one of those links.

[keen parrot]

@molten bramble downloading the latest nvidia drivers now

[molten bramble]

👍

[delicate tree]

@EA My advanced search for games only shows Operations. I'm not a noob all my setting are correct

[brazen burrow]

reset filter

[delicate tree]

@brazen burrow did that

[latent light]

new amd drivers gave me around 5-10% fps boost

best thing is that frametimes are more stable even though they weren't bad to begin with

[fringe patio]

I know this may be a repeat of someone earlier, but has anyone been having a FPS issue where you have steady frames for most of the time, then out of no where it drops to 20 FPS for about 20 seconds then goes back to normal? Feel like its a driver issue

[molten bramble]

@delicate tree Please do not @ mention EA employees on the server, as noted in #500058972234055710: @EA @DICE These are verified employees of EA/DICE. Do not @-mention them unless they are actively talking in one of the channels! Thank you!

[delicate tree]

@molten bramble kopy

[latent light]

I hate my isp more than nazis

CenturyLink forces us to use their default modem, we can't use a third party modem/router

And the modem they gave us can't even deliver stability, ping is all over the place

40ms one second, 3000ms another second

So basically, I quit online gaming

[mental hatch]

how can you hate nazis they had the coolest uniform in ww2

they were just a teensy bit misguided

[ocean valve]

Let's not have that conversation please

[mental hatch]

you really gonna tell me their helmets werent cool

[steep gust]

@latent light that isn't legal

[latent light]

well we are on a bit of an outdated DSL line that only supports modems made before 2010

so only modems that will work are old ones

can't buy a new modem

[molten bramble]

@mental hatch That's not what is being requested--implied glorification of nazis is the issue; it won't play well for folks here on the server, so let's shift away from that. Also, this is #technology, so let's stay on topic. Thanks.

[latent light]

tried looking everywhere for modems that will support our DSL but none are available

[steep gust]

I find it hard to believe no modem made after 2010 isnt backwards compatible

[molten bramble]

@latent light CenturyLink is notably horrible about everything with their ISP. I'm not surprised and I'm sorry you're having such issues.

[latent light]

no we've got 2 brand new modems, a Linksys one and a Netgear one

both of them don't work

[steep gust]

I mean ComCast is replacing the lines here with the same old copper instead of fiber and it's been killing my speeds for like 2 weeks

Ever experienced 10KB/s with a 10GB+ download?

[molten bramble]

@latent light There are some open-source modem firmwares you could run on the LinkSys one.

[latent light]

my base download speed is 3 mbps or about 375 KB/s

[steep gust]

Oof

[molten bramble]

@latent light Might cut out some of the BS.

[steep gust]

I'm suppose to get 100mbps

[molten bramble]

I only get 700mbps 😦

[latent light]

I plug the dsl line into either modem but the dsl won't even acknowledge that they are there

[steep gust]

I mean you hit a point of diminishing returns for speeds

[latent light]

so I'm stuck with the stock centurylink modem that sucks

[molten bramble]

@latent light Probably an issue on the DSLAM side.

[latent light]

my neighbor has the same provider and pays the same as us, but he gets 50 mbps, we get 3

lmao

[molten bramble]

@latent light Also, line interference/degradation plays A LOT into speeds on DSL.

I had one house in Florida that had a bad home to main line connection.

Everyone around me got much better rates.

[latent light]

we had our dsl line that goes underground replaced back in september

they dug up the old one and put a new one in

[molten bramble]

They didn't replace the mainline after several hurricanes though, so it didn't seem to matter because it was all sorts of hosed.

[steep gust]

I just want fiber

[molten bramble]

I love it.
