[steep gust]

No maintenance

Setup is easy

[storm osprey]

shouldnt you blow out the dust occasionally?

[sour ivy]

That goes without saying tho 😃

Yeah so I’ll be putting new thermal paste in my card today

And buy a fan to aim at it

[steep gust]

I mean I just wipe off my duster filters once a week

No dust in my case yet

[supple bane]

do you have your pc on your floor or something ?

Because It takes months for any visible dust to build in my pc

[sour ivy]

I have mine on the floor

[latent light]

XFX THICC is the best looking card of this gen

[steep gust]

that's a render

[violet plank]

looks nice,but tbh i have my doubts about the thermal design

[steep gust]

Better than the reference pcb

[violet plank]

i would very much love a silent radial design

or just something silent that blows the hot air outside the case

[steep gust]

4 slot card

ez

[violet plank]

yeah lol

why i'm doing an invert build,case temp drop by 5 degree celsius

[sour ivy]

I’m overclocking to 5ghz on my stock cooler

[mild bough]

How do you overclock?

[steep gust]

you change some numbers

do some stuff

and it works

[mild bough]

I am watching youtube now, and downloading something called MSI afterburner and kombustor

[steep gust]

google can probably explain it in way better detail

kombustor is not a good GPU stress test

[mild bough]

but does it work?

[steep gust]

Use SuperPostion, 3D Mark Firestrike + Timespy (extreme), and games

Generally no, your GPU's VRM will throttle and limit clocks

Its similar to FurMark in that it goes for max power consumption

[mild bough]

But the man here on youtube explains how to use itm i dont want to learn the other things myself

[steep gust]

SuperPostion is literally

download

click run

same with 3D Mark

If you don't buy it, you can't bypass the CPU tests but they are short

[mild bough]

oh

So I download SuperPostion and 3d Mark?

[steep gust]

yes

GPUs are not as easy as CPUs to stress test, as there is a massive variety of workloads that all put different stress on it

[mild bough]

And delete kombustor and msi afterburner?

[steep gust]

nah MSI Afterburner is good

[mild bough]

oh ok

[steep gust]

Kombustor just isn't a great stress test

[mild bough]

from this link? https://benchmark.unigine.com/superposition

[steep gust]

yes

[mild bough]

ok thx

[steep gust]

1080p extreme should be fine for most GPUs

8k for VRAM testing

[mild bough]

uhh, 3dmark just took me to hall of fame

https://www.3dmark.com/hall-of-fame-2/

[steep gust]

https://benchmarks.ul.com/3dmark#windows

click windows

Click the "Download Demo" button on the Steam store page to download 3DMark Basic Edition

[mild bough]

oh

thanks man

What is core clock and memory clock?

[steep gust]

exactly that

core clock is the GPU core clock speed, on cards (Maxwell and above) with GPU Boost its an offset to the V/F curve

on other cards it'll be a number you can set

memory clock is the real clock of the VRAM

[mild bough]

Ok, but what do I have to change to overclock my GPU?

[nocturne hawk]

Hit it

[steep gust]

core / memory clocks, power limits, voltage, fan speed, etc

https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/wiki/index#wiki_gpu_overclocking

[mild bough]

Will my fan melt if I turn it to 100?

[steep gust]

no

it'll just be loud

[mild bough]

oh

[nocturne hawk]

My PC has exceeded the temperature of the sun

[mild bough]

ahahahhaha

[prime jasper]

you should probably stop living in chernobyl then

[mild bough]

So I should change the core clock?

[steep gust]

https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/wiki/gpu/general

Read that

then read the guide for the GPU manufacturer you have

[mild bough]

I am not good reading instructions, I am better listening kinda. But I`ll try

[steep gust]

well every guide I know of is text

but youtube should have guides for most GPU generations

Pascal / Turing is identical

[supple bane]

jays two cents did a great vid on ocing gpus

just FYI

[steep gust]

yeah see I don't watch videos on overclocking since I understand it so I would miss anything from big youtubers

but yeah Jays video is probably detailed enough

[mild bough]

I am just watching some random dude panjino

he tells me to turn power limit to full

[steep gust]

What GPU do you have?

[mild bough]

It is the worst of the worst

The one and only GTX 950

[steep gust]

gt210?

[prime jasper]

oof

[steep gust]

So maxwell

[mild bough]

ikr, i bought this pc when i was a little kid

[steep gust]

yeah maxing it should be fine

[mild bough]

i just cared about gaming, not performance

[steep gust]

eh it was a fine budget card

when it came out like 4 years ago

[mild bough]

yeah hahah, im planning on buying rtx 2070 super now

[sour ivy]

Ok

Would it be a idiotic for me to make a psu shroud out of legos?

[mild bough]

it would be cool

and even more cool to use it

[sour ivy]

Hmm

[storm osprey]

i dont see why it would be idiotic

[sour ivy]

And could I make a gpu support thing too?

Or would that melt

[storm osprey]

uhh

[sour ivy]

Cuz my gpu sag

It got no belt

Just like a lil stand to hold it up

[storm osprey]

anything i think hot enough to melt leggos would probably have some sort of dissipating cooling system on it

case is top mount psu?

[steep gust]

uh lego don't melt at any temperature achievable by a GPU exhaust air

[sour ivy]

Ok dope

[mild bough]

helo

help

[sour ivy]

The psu is on the bottom

[steep gust]

My GPU's shroud is plastic

[mild bough]

I turned my core clock to 617 and now it froze

[steep gust]

and almost certainly not to the grade of lego

[sour ivy]

Bruh

[steep gust]

like +617?

[mild bough]

yes

[sour ivy]

Vro

[steep gust]

yeah you might get +100

go up in stages of 25

[mild bough]

is my pc long gone now?

[sour ivy]

No

[steep gust]

run a stress test (superpostion), etc write down score

repeat until the test crashes

[mild bough]

oh so it is natural to crash?

[sour ivy]

If you increase by that much yes

[mild bough]

but, my whole pc froze

[steep gust]

yes

[sour ivy]

Because you increased it by such an enormous amount dude

[mild bough]

imagine if i pressed save

[steep gust]

you ran clocks only possible on LN2

[mild bough]

and the whole pc dies

ahhahaha

[steep gust]

it would fail

[sour ivy]

It’s not just gonna die brother

[steep gust]

Afterburner is a software and you can just reboot it

[mild bough]

it would be hillarious

ahh, this test is gonna take forever

[steep gust]

not really

[mild bough]

howww, i have to change it manually

but the fan, does it just cool down stuff?

[steep gust]

it moves air over the heatsink

[mild bough]

so just air

nothing pc

[steep gust]

You might have heatpipes

but probably not on a 950

https://hwbot.org/submission/4209237_ that run took ages to get that score

[sour ivy]

950

[steep gust]

after all the software tweaks

[mild bough]

ikr, i used to have i5, 2gb ram and 950

what a dream

[sour ivy]

Yikes

[mild bough]

haha

[storm osprey]

that 2gb of ram is the cringe part

[steep gust]

it was probably some like

Ivy i5

[mild bough]

it was a asus CPU i think???

but does 3dmark the same job as kombustor?

[steep gust]

asus doesn't make CPUs

[mild bough]

idk

[steep gust]

3D Mark Firestrike / Timespy are pretty good stress tests

for a GPU

[mild bough]

what happens if i turn memory clock to full?

[steep gust]

it crashes

[mild bough]

ohh

any other things i should know before i get back into the fight?

[steep gust]

get ready for it to crash in games

just because it passes stress tests doesn't mean it won't be perfectly stable in games

[mild bough]

ohhh

[steep gust]

you just drop core clocks by like 10-20mhz and it'll generally work

[mild bough]

i will not add by 500 every time i guess haha

when i started a stress test on 3dmark the new thing that loaded in just crashed

[prime jasper]

you need to be increasing like 50...at most

[mild bough]

my friends have 3 monitors, and a 960 gtx card. is the reason hes crashing because it is so bad gpu?

[steep gust]

no

my iGPU can do triple monitors

but yeah add like +50 core then run the test

if it passes

[mild bough]

kk

[steep gust]

add another like +25

[mild bough]

affirmative

loool the whole thing just crashed

do i turn it down?

[prime jasper]

yes

[mild bough]

i got like 10 fps, and then boom it crashed

[steep gust]

Its a 950

I wouldn't expect very much

[mild bough]

yea

How do I find the default core clock number?

[steep gust]

set the core offset to +0

run a benchmark with afterburner open

there is a graph if you scroll down

[mild bough]

ah thanks

what happens if i turn it to -90?

[steep gust]

It applies a -90 offset

[supple bane]

it will clock down

[steep gust]

and you lose performance

[mild bough]

lool imagine doing that on someones pc

[supple bane]

so in my case going from 1890 MHz to 1800 MHz

i think people do it in rare cases

[mild bough]

like put it to -200

[supple bane]

Because lower clocks=lower temps

So in a normal desktop where the cooling isn’t sufficient, people clock down to save some precious degrees

[steep gust]

This is the V/F curve the GPU uses for the frequency at the voltage(s) allowed by GPU Boost

[mild bough]

and the air is so cold it gives you a cold

[steep gust]

Your's won't be as high

but msi afterburner is apply an offset to the entire curve

[mild bough]

gotta have diner

[latent light]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BrR2gw

what y'all think

[prime jasper]

3600 would be worth the xtra

[storm osprey]

ehhhh

60-70 more

for what? maybe 10 fps

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3EnxPswc3w

[latent light]

3600 is about 20% faster than 2600 in about 90% of games, up to 40% faster in CPU intensive games

[storm osprey]

at least from this it shows same fps or 10 fps advatange for 3600

[latent light]

GPU bottleneck in that test

[storm osprey]

are you not getting a 1660ti?

[latent light]

not my build but it's just a budget build

[storm osprey]

well for that budget build are you not using a 1660ti?

which the benchmark shows the same for

[latent light]

yes but that really depends on a lot of factors, if you're going for higher fps, 3600 can achieve 144hz much easier than the 2600

if you're playing BFV, drop the settings to low/medium to play competitively

[storm osprey]

personally i would keep the 2600 and get a 5700xt with the cost of the price difference

[latent light]

CPU bottleneck at 1080p

2600 single core performance is on par with a stock i7-3770K

[latent light]

1440p

[latent light]

is that with the 2600?

[storm osprey]

its what i searched for but ill check spec list

9900k

[latent light]

oof

[storm osprey]

but we care about what is paired with gpu but not cpu now?

[supple bane]

It’s a 1440p, changing the cpu won’t make too much difference on that

AND AGAIN it’s on dx11, amd gpu’s seem to perform better on dx 12

[latent light]

if you're using a 2600 at 1080p, any GPU more powerful than RX 5700 or RTX 2060 will get bottlenecked, especially if not playing at ultra settings

[supple bane]

agreed

but if you go higher resolution you won’t have that issue

[storm osprey]

so youd rather get a 3600 and a 1660ti so you dont bottleneck?

[latent light]

no rather a 2600 and 1660ti to keep the budget

[storm osprey]

vs a 2600 and a 5700 that will bottleneck but get better performance

[latent light]

2600 and 1660ti are a great pair if you don't play at ultra settings

[supple bane]

Even tho I probs won’t be getting a gpu for a while, my next gpu will be a second hand 1080

[storm osprey]

yea i havent argued vs changing anything, i commented on spending extra for 3600 not being worth it for a 1660ti

[supple bane]

and I think it will go well with the 2600

[latent light]

if you wanna play at ultra then get a RX 5700 (non-XT) or a 2060

[supple bane]

the thing is, the 1080 is dirt cheap second hand

[latent light]

although 5700 is way better value than 2060

[supple bane]

that’s why I’m attracted to it

[storm osprey]

all this because i said the price from 2600 to 3600 isnt worth it for a 1660ti

[latent light]

but you also said keep the 2600 and get a 5700 XT which would bottleneck at 1080p

[storm osprey]

i had a typo, just 5700

but yes, i would rather put the price difference towards a 5700 vs a 3600

[latent light]

I bet by new years, the 3600 will drop in price

to around $160-170

maybe even less lol

[storm osprey]

🤷🏼

for a budget build i dont get spending 70 more for a 3600 to pair with a 1660ti

[latent light]

same

3600 should be paired with a 1080/2070/5700 or better

3600 is almost on par with a 8700K

[storm osprey]

insane

hopefully i can get enough to do a new build by christmas time

[latent light]

the hilarious thing about 3rd gen Ryzen is that it's even cheaper to manufacture than 1st and 2nd gen

due to the new chiplet design

so next year we could see the 3600 at $100 lmao

which would be the greatest value CPU ever in the market

once revenue exceeds the costs of R&D, 3rd gen prices are going to come down quite a bit

[supple bane]

it will be interesting to see what intel does to respond to all this zen 2 noise

[latent light]

another 14nm refresh

[mild bough]

why not buy rtx 2080ti and be done with it

[supple bane]

eh it's not that simple

Because you need the CPU power to go with the gpu power

if you dont, you get a bottleneck

[mild bough]

whats a bottleneck

[supple bane]

Which means the CPU is holding back the gpu or vice versa

[mild bough]

ohhh

[supple bane]

the gpu simply cant perform at its peak due to the CPU holding it back

Again, it can work both ways

https://www.instagram.com/p/B01tgLHh1bV/?igshid=ej1jdymktz8y

[steep gust]

A bottleneck always exist

[latent light]

you're a bottleneck

Help, i downloaded a voice changer called voicemod. And when I didnt want it more, I uninstalled voicemod. And then my microphone volume turns super low, and when I try to boost it, it is still low..

it sounds like someone is screaming down from a well

should i remove my mic from the sounds tab? Like delete it?

[violet plank]

wtf,2080ti getting so hot that it even heats up hdd/ssd behind the mb ?

anyone with a 2080ti can confirm that they get hot as hell ?

[mild bough]

I tried deleting the microphone, but now when i try to plug it back in. Nothing happens, windows does not give me a message that anything has been plugged in

It wont even recognize my fucking headphones

[molten bramble]

@supple bane Wait, are those mandrel-bent power cables? 😮

@mild bough Restart, see if it fixes itself. If not, deinstall drivers and reinstall.

[mild bough]

I have restarted, but it still does not detect anything

But what do you mean by deinstall drivers?

dude

youre a legend, it worked

thanksss, i thought i had to buy new headphones. @molten bramble

hey guys any idea why gpu might be over heating?

all my settings are low

[coarse nimbus]

do you have a gpu monitoring program running?

can you tell the fan speed/ what temp you are hitting

[steep gust]

@violet plank open air cards exhaust out both sides of the heatsink

So they heat the motherboard PCB around the GPU

Most likely you SSDs have no airflow and just keep getting hotter

[hoary ember]

I saw there was a ssd thermal plate

That u stick on ssd

[prime jasper]

gpu monitoring program?

its hitting like 40 c

ASUS Strix 5700XT has a boost clock of 2035 MHz

should get equal performance to the 2080

[steep gust]

Good 5700xt on the blower did 2100-2150

[latent light]

yeah I wonder how well the triple fan cards will overclock

5700 XT reference has 1905 boost

anniversary has 1975

[quartz whale]

Do you guys think a jump from a 9600K too a 9700K is worth it

[latent light]

rumors say that the 5700 XT Strix gets about 8% higher performance than reference

which sounds normal

what you'd expect from comparing a blower to a triple fan

all in all, 2070 Super is becoming more and more pointless

[lofty light]

@latent light GN did the hybrid mod and there wasn't much of a boost from memory

[latent light]

wasn't that on the default locked AMD bios too

partners will be different

[visual reef]

Wat

[prime jasper]

Anyone know any good desks thatd fit my tower

?

[fossil sorrel]

what tower?

[supple bane]

Pretty sure almost all desks will fit your case

[violet plank]

@steep gust not my rig,someone told me that,i don't own a 2080ti,but since the ssd is behind mb and the metal mounting for the mb it must get very hot,never heard of anything like this before

guess the temp limit of the 2080ti is pretty high anyways ?

my 1080ti oc 2ghz+ never exceeds 70-73 celsisus

wish there was a custom gpu with reversed fan airflow (pull instead of push)

[supple bane]

you could diy it I guess

But it wouldn't be pretty

[violet plank]

if you just could flip the original fans 180 degree,but doubt that works on any card at all

since 99% is glued anyways

[supple bane]

like I said, it would be possible just not pretty

also, I'm pretty sure the temps would be worse doing it that way

[violet plank]

nope,not on an inverted build,that's why i want it like that,card fans show upwards that way

much better heat transfer

out of the case

like that

https://hexus.net/media/uploaded/2018/6/5e921939-a06d-400a-a4ae-4f92dcc6079a.png

[steep gust]

Eh it shouldn't make much difference if you have good case airflow

Like front intake top exhaust

Natural convection loses to a low rpm fan quickly

[violet plank]

depends on the case i guess

oh i see i mixed something up

gpu isn't that much of a change,but cpu is

https://www.gamersnexus.net/images/media/2018/cases/dbp-900/1_bq-dbp900-cpu_only.png

weird that it does not affect the gpu that much

just trying to find the perfect balance between silence and cooling

gonna try putting in some high airflow fans with the standard layout

cause cpu idle temps always bothered me

[steep gust]

If you are so worried about temps

Do a custom loop

[violet plank]

na,i'm done with all that work

airflow only

[steep gust]

I mean

[violet plank]

found a problem already

[steep gust]

Soft tubing

External rad

Box fan

[violet plank]

stupid assus software

[steep gust]

[violet plank]

didn't save front profile

[steep gust]

Assus bad

Software fan control bad

[violet plank]

yeah,behaves weird

just for fast testing

afterwards it's on a pwm hub with manual control

cpu temps already 5 celsius down in idle

and still dead silent

you can say about asus what you want,they got crap shit and really good stuff,but their bios is imo the best

but for a x570 mb atm i would like gigabytes vrm,msi fan layout and asus bios

and msi heatpipe

Looking for a 1440p monitor would you guys say the 2070 can do well at 1440p?

[silver zinc]

Anyone else have an issue where BF5 is constantly at 100% CPU usage?

[quartz whale]

What CPU do u have @silver zinc

[steep gust]

ignore task manager m8

If I buy a high thread count CPU

[silver zinc]

6700K

[steep gust]

Its never gonna hit more than 20-30% even if it fully loads a bunch of threads

[silver zinc]

Does this game use alot of cores?

[steep gust]

yes

[silver zinc]

Maybe its time to upgrade

[steep gust]

6700k is fine for most games

[latent light]

BFV can utilize 8 cores

[silver zinc]

Yeah that's what i thought too but i'm not too sure

[latent light]

if you're on a budget, Ryzen 5 3600 would be a nice jump

if you want the best performance possible, i9-9900K

[silver zinc]

Yeah was thinking of going to an I-7 but same MoBo but i was also looking at getting into AMD for my CPU

[latent light]

you can't upgrade on your current motherboard

highest you can go is 7700K which is barely better than the 6700K

[silver zinc]

I can get the I-7 Kaby lake

[latent light]

waste of money then

because same core/thread count

[steep gust]

7700k is not worth the cost

[quartz whale]

Would it be worth upgrading to a 9700K from a 9600k?

[latent light]

not worth the cost nor worth the time putting it into the socket lmao

[steep gust]

and while you can mod Z170 / Z270 to run Coffeelake

Its not really worth it on a lot of boards

[latent light]

damn already upgrading a CPU that's not even a year old

sounds like intel

9600K should be fine on BFV if you overclock it

due to recent updates, BFV is stuttery to everyone

game ran great during alpha, beta and launch then it fell on its face in 2019

[quartz whale]

Yeah I was debating on if I should do but seen there is hardly any differençes

In most games now

[latent light]

9600K to 9700K is only 2 extra cores

no hyperthreading

[steep gust]

HT isn't much anyways

y'all greatly overestimate how much it actually does in a lot of workloads

[latent light]

compare 4 core/4 thread CPU to a 4 core/8 thread CPU though

i5 before 8th gen are struggling in modern games

older i7s are saved by HT

[peak hemlock]

hello, im currently having issues with battlefield 3, 4, and v . im getting these really bad frametime spikes (game freezes for about a second or less). its more noticeable on large conquest servers, but still present on smaller gamemodes like chainlink in bf4. i have an intel core i7 6700, rtx 2060, 16 gb ram ddr4, 550w evga supernova g3, and 1 tb hdd seagate 7200rpm https://prnt.sc/or4cb6

anyone have any suggestions in mind?

[steep gust]

DDU your driver

@peak hemlock how did you remove your old gpu driver?

[peak hemlock]

ive used ddu many times, this started happening after i installed the new rtx 2060

[steep gust]

Could easily be driver issues

Do you have your old GPU still to test to make sure it is your GPU?

[peak hemlock]

unfortunately i was having an issue where one of my cpu cores would be fully utilized (fixed that though by uninstalling drivers from device manager)

[steep gust]

BF3 / BF4 are mostly low core count stuff

It'll load up a few cores (especially the one feeding the GPU) really high

Especially on a modern gpu

[peak hemlock]

this was process explorer showing what was happening even at desktop https://prnt.sc/or4dca

although that isssue isnt happening anymore after i uninstalled gpu drivers from device manager

but im still having these stuttering issues

[steep gust]

This happens in the test range?

I get almost micro stuttering when my network is being a pain in the ass

havent tested test range, will do though

i was getting this network performance error in bf4 and bf5 https://www.fad-multigaming.de/img/bf4__server_performance_icons/low_fps_servere.jpg

[steep gust]

That's uh

[peak hemlock]

but that means bad fps or something

when the spikes hit

[steep gust]

Try like vsync

Or capping your fps

[peak hemlock]

still happens on vsync, not as noticeable though and i would honestly prefer without vsync on bf4 since input lag is a lot more noticeable on that versus bfv

and capping fps doesnt work either

[steep gust]

[fading thicket]

Hey, can anyone help me figure out why my BFV is crashing to desktop as soon as I start it?

[lofty light]

You updated your graphics drivers?

[fading thicket]

@lofty light You know, I don't think I have...

How do I check for NVidia cards?

I'll try after this MWO match ends

@lofty light You thought right, my drivers aren't up to date. I'll update em now and see what happens.

No dice - it loads up a little bit, then freezes and abruptly crashes to desktop.

@lofty light Any other tricks to try?

[supple bane]

@fading thicket repair game files

or reinstall the game

What are your specs too, most likely not but if your below minimum specs your game won’t launch

[fading thicket]

@supple bane I wasn't able to repair game files earlier as Origin was stuck on resuming the update for Apex Legends.

I fixed that by deleting Apex (and uninstalling BFV along the way) so i'm going to try playing again after it becomes available.

[supple bane]

like I said it’s a long shot but what are your specs ?

[molten coral]

Someone wanna buy a centipede mouse?

[supple bane]

[molten coral]

Here are some more mouses @supple bane

[supple bane]

also @molten coral ITS MICE

Not mouses

[molten coral]

#LearnSomethingEveryDay

[jade star]

last one is pretty nice

[fading thicket]

@supple bane Update, after a fresh reinstall I am able to play the game now !

[supple bane]

Good stuff

[mild bough]

I found a card that is called «HP RTX 2080 OEM» , is it a good card?

It was a used card, perfect condition. 550 dollars

[supple bane]

it's a good deal but remember it's an OEM

what are your current specs tho ?

[mild bough]

I7-8700 and 16gb ram

but what is it with OEM components?

[supple bane]

a component that a company brought to put into a prebuilt system to sell on

[mild bough]

And what is wrong with that?

[supple bane]

it won't come with warrenty, and It can have other negatives too

[silver zinc]

There's nothing wrong with OEM cards, just know that they run a bit hotter

[mild bough]

What is warrenty?

[supple bane]

Are you taking the piss lol ?

[mild bough]

I am not an expert

English is not my mother language

[supple bane]

Warranty is if your part breaks you can call the manufacturer to get a replacement part

for free

[mild bough]

Oh thats good

[supple bane]

well it has to be within certain requirements

[mild bough]

oh ok

[supple bane]

Most say it has to be within the first three months of purchase and if there is any user damage warranty cannot be claimed

[mild bough]

ohh i know what warranty is, it is called guarantee where i live

So do you think it is worth to buy?

[supple bane]

what do you have currently?

Graphics card I mean

[mild bough]

GTX 950 hahaha

anything is better than that

[supple bane]

Hmm

depends on your bank account then really

I would say the amd 5700xt would be better

[mild bough]

How much is that?

[supple bane]

About 400 dollars

[long sphinx]

non xt is better value

oc it and you get the xt

[mild bough]

Oh

But I just want a really good one

[long sphinx]

then wait for top of the line navis

[mild bough]

So it is overkill so I can play with ultra on my 1920x1028

[lofty light]

At 60hz? Yeah that's kinda overkill

[mild bough]

Exactly

I want overkil

Is it good for that?

[lofty light]

Both are yeah

[mild bough]

Great

Then that card it is

[supple bane]

if you only have a 60hz monitor that don't get the e 5700xt

literally the detention of a waste of money

[molten coral]

If you are playing on 1080p 60hz just get a budget card tbh

[mild bough]

no i want overkill

[supple bane]

remember when I taught you what a bottleneck was, that is he ultimate bottleneck

[lofty light]

Just get a budget card like the Titan RTX

[supple bane]

ignore him ^

[mild bough]

then i can decide to buy a better monitor later

yeah titan rtx is only like 3000 dollars

hahah

[lofty light]

It's like $8k here

[supple bane]

tbh get a better monitor first

I think it would be the best way forward

[molten coral]

Just get a 2070

[supple bane]

You can get a decent 1440p 144hz on eBay for like 300 dollars

[mild bough]

yeah, but is it possible to play with bottleneck?

[lofty light]

If you want overkill get this man

3440x1440 at 200Hz

It's my monitor but stronger

[mild bough]

Hahaha

I bet jackfrags has that

[lofty light]

Probs not tbh

[mild bough]

Elon musk

But can i play with it?

the bottleneck

[lofty light]

Of course, you'll ALWAYS have a bottleneck

[mild bough]

what?

[lofty light]

In my PC it's my CPU

[mild bough]

i cant get rid of it?

oh

But I didnt quite understood what bottleneck was

Oh i get it, it is like limiting the performance

[lofty light]

The limiting part of your PC, so in your case the monitor as your cpu and GPU are good enough but they could go further with higher frames or resolution

Yeah

[mild bough]

ohhh

But if I will get 120 frames on ultra or high with a 1920x1028 monitor, heck yea

[supple bane]

you can but you see the frames

The Hz on a monitor means the max frame rate the monitor can display

so in your case you may be able to get 120 fps but in reality you can only see 60

My monitor is 75 Hz and I average about 80-100 fps on ultra but still I can only see 75 fps

[mild bough]

Oh

Can i buy a 1920x1028 monitor with 144hz?

[supple bane]

Thats why getting an overkill graphics card is pointless for you

Idk

Ye probs

[mild bough]

So I will just buy a gpu first, then buy a monitor later

but how do i know if the gpu is compatible with my pc, i thought i only needed to know the watt

i have 550 watt

[supple bane]

it will always be compatible

Graphics cards are a component that will be compatible with anything

[mild bough]

Oh

I did not know

Because when i bought my cpu

It wasnt compatible, so i had to buy a new motherboard

[supple bane]

yes CPU's have to be compatible

[jagged citrus]

Does any of you have any idea about a low end pc that could run 1080p 60fps while streaming via ps4 while using an elgato?

[mild bough]

What is low end for you? 500?

@jagged citrus

[jagged citrus]

Yeah 500 sounds great

[mild bough]

Well, i have no idea. But I can investegate a littlep

[silver zinc]

If you want a good cheap 1080p 144hz monitor look into this one

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07N6ZBCVY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Just got it and i'm liking it so far

[mild bough]

or gabe comes and save the day

Thats just a monitor

[silver zinc]

If you're streaming using al elgato you can really use any computer

[jagged citrus]

I tried to find something on yt but nothing about the actual build

[silver zinc]

Because you're just encoding not rendering and encoding

Any I-5 will do the job fine

[mild bough]

i have no idea what elgato actually is

[jagged citrus]

Is a capture card

[mild bough]

You can buy my i5

it has never been overclocked

[jagged citrus]

Yea well I am living in eu

[mild bough]

me too

[jagged citrus]

Lol

[mild bough]

are you in norway?

[jagged citrus]

@silver zinc do you have 5 mins? I wanna buy a pc, so which i5, what ram should I use do I need a gpu? I dont rly know how the capture card works

I live in Austria

[mild bough]

Oh

You should proba buy atleast 6gb ram and i5-6400

[silver zinc]

The capture card basically is doing all of the hard work, you're just encoding and streaming from the PC

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hnmd4q

Something like this should do the trick for you

[jagged citrus]

Thank you very much, sir

[molten bramble]

Hmmm... buy two 27" monitors for a triple header or go over to a 32" for the center and flank 27" monitors on both sides... decisions, decisions.

[steep gust]

Same size for all 3

@silver zinc encoding is the hard work

A capture card is only needed if you are going to use a second streaming rig

[molten bramble]

@steep gust I am inclined to agree, simply because I don't want to deal with that little annoyance when moving an app window between two monitors of different size/resolution.

[supple bane]

what I hate is when the monitors have different colours

[molten coral]

Just buy a wide one

[steep gust]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ya5zRRMaBwM

[molten bramble]

@molten coral I'd considered it, but they're still higher than I want to pay atm for a 49" 120Hz Samsung @ ~ $1,300 - 1,500.

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Double-49-Inch-Monitor-LC49RG90SSNXZA/dp/B07L9HCJ2V/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Samsung+C49RG90SSN&qid=1565547037&s=gateway&sr=8-1

Whereas two additional 27" screens gives me 81" of space to work with and/or reconfigure based on what I am doing.

That's at literally 1/3 of the cost.

Half the cost if I go OLED instead of LCD.

[molten coral]

Yeah, they are pretty expensive that is for sure.

But I wouldn't be able to go back now if someone told me to use 2 27'' screens instead of the one I use now.

[molten bramble]

I don't discount the avantage of a no-bezel separation, but it's not worth the cost to me atm.

[mild bough]

Can anyone recommend a good 1920x1028 minimum 144hz monitor? For around 200-300 dolars

[molten bramble]

If they come down to about $800, which they will eventually, I might do that.

@mild bough I have a Samsung 27" 144Hz LCD (C27JG50QQN) on this build, works great, can be found on Amazon within that pricerange, less if you pick one up used probably.

[mild bough]

Thats great

Thanks, I’ll look it up 😀

[molten bramble]

Next step up would be the OLED version, but you're looking at a 1/3-1/2 of the price markup for that.

There is a 32" of this model that is pretty nice as well.

[mild bough]

I like 27 monitors, the size is perfect. The size makes the eye have good overview

[steep gust]

OLED monitors dont really exist

For valid reasons

[mild bough]

What is a oled monitor?

[steep gust]

A monitor using OLED

[mild bough]

what is oled?

haha

[reef pasture]

Some type of display that is very expensive

I don’t know if it’s worth the money

[mild bough]

oof

if it sounds expensive, it probably is expensive

[coarse nimbus]

Lol... what does X mean, it means X...thats helpful

[mild bough]

What of my pc components do I need combine to find out how much watt of my Power Supply I am currently using

[steep gust]

GPU and CPU should be enough

Or just buy a like 550w PSU

[mild bough]

i have 550w. i know it is expensive, but it sounds kinda cool to buy a 1500w

then you wont have to buy a new psu for probably a decade

[steep gust]

Power draw is going down

[mild bough]

wdym?

[steep gust]

1500w PSUs exist for exteme overclocking and other super extreme systems

Like CPUs / GPUs will draw less power in a decade than today

[mild bough]

oh

so i could just buy a 1w psu lol

[steep gust]

It's an extreme waste to buy >750w PSUs for a single GPU / consumer CPU

[mild bough]

hahaha ok

imagine being in a coma for 20 years and they have like YTX 99990 gpus

[coarse nimbus]

not sure a psu would even last that long, they have a shelf life

[mild bough]

oh

[steep gust]

Most high end PSUs have a like 12-15 year warranty

[mild bough]

in the 80’s you needed to have like 99999w psu

[pallid silo]

I have a vega64 is it worth using my 1440p 120hz monitor or should I go for my 1080p 120hz? :) 1080p one has free sync and I play battlefield 1/5 GTA V star wars battlefront 2 black ops 4 sniper elite (most common games I play) would 1440p seem more appropriate for my gpu

It's only coz my cousin said that the vega64 is more suited for 1440p as its overkill for 1080p

[latent light]

nothing is yet overkill for 1080p

[pallid silo]

A 2080ti is XD

[lofty light]

I mean, if you're going 280Hz then sure

[pallid silo]

XDD I dont really notice much after 100hz

[lofty light]

I still can 🤷

But then again I'm still res over anything

[cursive marten]

I would get a 2080Ti just for piece of mind that i can run literally everything

would rather get a 3rd gen ryzen tho

[lofty light]

I've got both now

Although the 3900X is still on backorder

[prime jasper]

youve got a 3rd gen ryzen and ordered the 3900x too?

[steep gust]

I mean a 3600 is cheap

and you can return it

[lofty light]

Na, I'm counting my backorder as having it as I've already paid

[molten bramble]

@lofty light throwing that money around like it's just tissue paper

[latent light]

considering 3rd gen Ryzen is cheaper to manufacture than the previous gens, probably will see bigger price cuts than we did with 2nd gen

[molten bramble]

Big bawlla!

[latent light]

can't wait to see the 3600 at only $150

although that may not happen if Intel doesn't release anything to compete at the current price point of the 3600

[steep gust]

It might be cheaper

but yields are currently clearly not super high

[latent light]

yeah not as high as 14nm

[steep gust]

and CPUs take months to manufacture

[latent light]

3600 at $150 and 3700X at under $300 would be nice

Ryzen 4000 design is complete and will be most likely be ready Q2 2020

when 4th gen launches, 3700X will probably be around $250 lol

do you think AMD could of stayed on 14/12nm and improved it over time like Intel did with 14nm

[prime jasper]

yes

but why

[latent light]

will never know because they want to keep shrinking

[prime jasper]

they kept improving bulldozer into all its iterations

[latent light]

https://www.anandtech.com/show/14666/tsmc-3nm-euv-development-progress-going-well-early-customers-engaged

already boasting about 3nm lol

which we won't see until around 2023 or 2024 lol

[steep gust]

yeah when you don't need to produce and manufacture its easier

[lofty light]

@molten bramble just spending literally all my spending money on tech, it's my only hobby really

[molten bramble]

I mean, as long as you got the priorities nailed down, what you do with the excess shouldn't be anyone's concern. yolo! 😃

[latent light]

Mini-STX motherboards for Ryzen would be cool

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16856158064

nvm could just buy this lmao

comes with a case

it's for Ryzen APUs, only 6 inches tall

[hoary ember]

3400g is pretty good

[lofty light]

@latent light is that the CMOS battery sitting directly on the chipset? 👀

But yeah mini stx is a mobo format I really want to get behind, it's just a pity that MTX GPUs have no real standard

[latent light]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUfpSOmC8jk

damn you can build this system for less than $300 depending on the CPU you choose

very nice

[lofty light]

Oooh

[latent light]

3400G might get hot

I'd like to put an Athlon 200GE in that build

[lofty light]

Pfft, mini PC's are meant to thermal throttle

[latent light]

fuck normal power supplies, why don't they just make larger AC adapters

[lofty light]

Lol

I've got one of these in my mini PC https://www.geeekstore.com/shop/custom-flex-atx-modular-psu/

[cursive marten]

how well does that work?

also, i've seen a lot of mini PC's with watercooling setups so thermal throttling isn't a thing?

[lofty light]

Haven't had any problems with mine except the 40mm fan has dodgy bearings so it squeaks

[hoary ember]

Lul

[lofty light]

According to reviews it's a common issue

But hey, I just happen to have a spare 40mm noctua fan so 🤷

[cursive marten]

couldn't you replace the bearings?

[lofty light]

Not worth it for a crappy 40mm fan

[latent light]

Ryzen 4000 architecture design is already complete, using 7nm EUV (extreme ultra violet).
20% more transistor density and also 20% more power efficient over Ryzen 3000.
Their later generation 7 nm (N7FF+) production is planned to use EUV multiple patterning and entered risk production in August 2018, and volume production in June 2019.
Ryzen 4000 expected release: Q2 2020.

[lofty light]

How expensive is that going to be 👀

[latent light]

My predictions for 4th gen Ryzen:

• 5-8% greater IPC than 3000 series
• 4.8 GHz single core boost
• 3466 MHz memory support out of box
• No X670 chipset
• 6 core/12 thread APU

[steep gust]

There isn't a 3466 jedec bin

so no 3466 support

[latent light]

[supple bane]

I wouldn’t say 4.8ghz

maybe the high end ones actually

but I wouldn’t say r5 4600 would have 4.8

16GB HBM stacks

[violet plank]

somewhat disappointing,loud,heavy,big (2.7slots),power hungry and very little performance gain against the reference design :/

https://www.computerbase.de/2019-08/asus-radeon-rx-5700-xt-strix-test/

guess they just used a nvidia strix cooling design,which is wrong cause of the much smaller amd gpu die

[lofty light]

GPU vendors are loving the 2.5-3 slot cards

Whereas I wouldn't go back from water-cooling it now

[violet plank]

1.4 Kg

they just need to make a bigger surface area of the chip,easier to cool,but more expensive i guess

[lofty light]

Oof

Yeah bigger chips are much, much more expensive

Exponentially so I think

[violet plank]

sounds about right

hope navi 20 does it better

should be a bigger chip

[steep gust]

The thing is

For AMD

as long as temperatures are within safe metrics and noise / cooling is good enough

They don't have to change anything

pascal had a pretty small die compared to Turing and it is leagues easier to cool than Turing

https://hwbot.org/submission/4215378_sth_patrick_cinebench___r15_2x_epyc_7742_10280_cb

https://hwbot.org/submission/4215374_

Both scores are invalid on HWBot but show the strength of 128 cores

[prime jasper]

why would that be invalid?

[steep gust]

Covers the render window

missing the CPU-Z memory tab

[violet plank]

nitro custom x5700 is way better in terms of noise,seems asus failed hard with their strix design

sapphire

well,nvm,sucks on performance bios aswell

44 decibel,that's loud af

oh that's for the xt,fans hitting the cooling limit there,the normal 5700 with 37 decibel seems ok

guess more cuda cores and the additional rt cores produce more heat on turing? @steep gust

[steep gust]

Density

stuff is really close together

[violet plank]

cheaper in manufacturing

lol 127 cores,cpu-z not yet updated to the new epyc ?

[steep gust]

yeah that's normal

[sour ivy]

Ideas on how I can make my blower 1080 a lil cooler?

[prime jasper]

not much short of reapplying paste/pads and/or getting a new cooler on it

[sour ivy]

Yeah I’ll do thermal paste

Idk if I should liquid cool it

Probably too expensive

[prime jasper]

at that point the cost isnt justified vs a new card

[sour ivy]

Yeah

Should put a cpu cooler on it haha

[prime jasper]

lol somebody probably has on youtube

you can try undervolting it too

[sour ivy]

Probably works

I saw someone else who like removed part of the bracket

So more hot air could leave

And that helped temps but I probably don’t wanna do that

I don’t think it’s throttling it’s just toasty

It never goes past 78 C

If I bring up the fan speeds to 100% it’s around 72 in Bfv

[prime jasper]

seems normal

[sour ivy]

I expected it

Cuz I mean it’s a powerful card but a blower lol

[prime jasper]

my 2080 will hit around 70-72 in bfv too

game just gets everything hot lol

[sour ivy]

Is it double or triple fans

[prime jasper]

double

[sour ivy]

I’m also just sad that I don’t get 144 FPS in Bfv

But I know the game runs shit for most people

[prime jasper]

only way I could get 144 is dropping to low but screw that

[sour ivy]

Wait you don’t get 144 on a 2080?

[prime jasper]

not on ultra 1440p

[sour ivy]

Oh 1440 ok

What’s yo cpu

[prime jasper]

2700x

[sour ivy]

I’m runnin a 2600x

Should probably overclock it

[prime jasper]

just let PBO do its thing

manually overclocking these isnt worth it unless you have a custom loop

[sour ivy]

😭

[steep gust]

I mean

You can find waterblocks for cheap on ebay

[sour ivy]

Those would be safe? Like name brand?

[steep gust]

waterblocks are waterblocks

EK is a "name brand" company and their blocks are shit most of the time

[sour ivy]

I’m not tryna fry my parts

[steep gust]

You can probably find the EK block for your card on ebay

[sour ivy]

I’ll check it out

Then I’d need a radiator? Could I get one for both my cpu and gpu

[prime jasper]

yes...and the lines, and the radiator fans, and the fittings. its stupid expensive just to cool that card

[sour ivy]

😦

Not worth 75 c is ok then lol

[steep gust]

and a pump

Buy a morpheus or an accerlero

Worth it

I have no LGA1366 board

[prime jasper]

damaged

[steep gust]

It probably works fine

I saw nothing damaged about it

The IHS is busted up

[sour ivy]

What about hanging a fan right in front of the gpu

Dumb or dumb?

[prime jasper]

at that point you might as well just take the side off the case and point a desk fan right at it lol

[sour ivy]

Lmfao

That’s not an option. I have cats

I really want to just have a test bench setup but they’d fuck it up

[steep gust]

its also a blower

so you can't force more air through it

[sour ivy]

I’ll just see where it’s at after new paste

Also need to dust my pc and fix cable management lol

And get more than 1 case fan

But I’m getting a new case anyways. Need something smaller and better looking

[latent light]

Yeah it’s ok

I’d rather go cheaper but I’ll check em out

[storm osprey]

do you want a side window?

[sour ivy]

Yeah

But I’d be open to one w/o

[storm osprey]

those are what i would get, personally i would get the masterbox

the thermaltake doesnt come with a fan iirc

VR ready

rx570

[molten bramble]

I LOL'd

[steep gust]

"4k ready"

"VR ready"

4k VR ready"

I mean technically it can run 4k

[sour ivy]

@storm osprey I have 4 case fans I can put in it

What a god tier pc

So sexy

[storm osprey]

we use the thermaltakes at work and the seem good

pretty basic case

[sour ivy]

I hate my thermaltake case

But I think I just bought a shitty one

[storm osprey]

thermaltake isnt my go to brand, but they seem to be decent budget cases

[sour ivy]

Yeah

[tropic pebble]

any help? i just got an error saying my gpu does niot support my direct x 11.....i played the game hours ago everything was fine
i repaired the game still nothing

[prime jasper]

reboot, try again

[storm osprey]

classic

[tropic pebble]

i restarted my pc and the game worked. i cant understand this shit.....what made the game fluster? ugh these technologies nowadays

[prime jasper]

if a restart fixed it then it wasnt the games fault

[steep gust]

dx errors are generally driver issues

[tropic pebble]

how do i know if my drivers have issues though? i have everything updated and i got my pc from march

so its still new

What gpu can run bf5 at 4k 60fps ultra? Nothing below 50fps

With a ryzen 5 3600

[latent light]

CPU doesn't matter much at 4K

[pallid silo]

Yeah but what gpu would I need

[latent light]

RX 5700 XT or RTX 2080

5700 XT gets better performance than the 2080 in BFV for some reason

[pallid silo]

Ah okay! What fps does the vega64 uv/oc get? And radeon is more optimised maybe?

[latent light]

looks like 5700 XT beats vega 64 by around 15% in BFV

[pallid silo]

Ah okay! That's not worth the extra price for the 5700xt then

As vega64 is 300 pounds

[latent light]

Vega 64 averages around 45-50 fps at 4K ultra settings

[pallid silo]

Ahh okay! :) is that with AA off

[latent light]

yeah

[pallid silo]

Awesome :D and stock settings or an oc

[latent light]

stock

[steep gust]

vega has some issues with oc

Mostly down to hotspot temps

[pallid silo]

The sapphire is a 3 fan so I'm sure that will be okay :)

I could overclock and undervolt a vega64 to get 50fps at 4k ultra and turn a few settings to high :) thanks man

Sapphire has an exclusive feature with resolution scaling that works with all games, even if they don't support it

[steep gust]

Its no different than DSR

[steep gust]

That's not how that works

If you play at a lower resolution and upscale it, you end up at the same fps

[hoary ember]

@latent light where did you downloaded this version of trixx

[latent light]

it's for the Sapphire RX 5700 series

[hoary ember]

oh...

[lofty light]

Ohhhh.......how embarrassing

[forest token]

looks like it is just making it easier to use the amd built in upscaling

I think the amd tweaker requires making a custom resolution after enabling upscaling and the trixx just makes it easier

can anyone confirm?

[steep gust]

That's all it is

a custom resolution
