but the 3600 is going to take that crown by the end of this year

sour ivy
#

Ryzen on top

violet plank
#

my bet is on the 3700x as most sold

fading wadi
#

I have been unable to log into PC Origin servers all day

#

I've reset my router and checked every other connection- I cannot tell if this is my side or somethings wrong with my local servers

#

Can anyone attest if they've been unable to log into the game? East Coast around Ohio

latent light
#

@violet plank as of now, 3600 is selling more

#

3700X is close though

#

normal because $150-200 range is the biggest market for CPUs

storm osprey
#

considering 3600 gets close to 3700x gaming performance probably helps a lot

violet plank
#

guess depends where in the world,in some regions 3600 were not available for 2 months after launch

#

but plenty of 3700x

#

but it won't be an intel cpu for sure haHAA

#

and dunno the impact of the 3500/3900 OEM til the end of the year

#

not sure if they even will be released to consumers

#

like non oem

latent light
#

3500 already launched in Asia iirc

#

There's a review on it

#

In Chinese

oh shit

storm osprey

i see

grand steeple

throwing shades

#

yo nyphon

storm osprey

yo

grand steeple
#

is there anything faster than an ssd

storm osprey
#

pcie and m.2 ssds

grand steeple
#

one of my mates told me someething about an M2

storm osprey
#

m.2 is a form factor, but that form factor supports faster ssd types

#

like nvme

grand steeple
#

hmm is it worth it ?

storm osprey
#

you can have an m.2 ssd that basically has the same tech as a sata ssd

#

in some cases prices are the same for nvme and comparable sata ssds

#

in which case nvme drives are better, but for gaming the difference is literally within a second

supple bane
#

for a first pc, just get a normal 2.5" ssd

grand steeple
#

I want something that will help me start google chrome instantly instead of having to press it for 1000x times

supple bane
#

because the only reason you want an m.2 is for workstation shit

#

yeah the boot times are nice and all

#

but come on, its not like the boot times from a normal ssd are bad

#

so for just gaming, just go with the cheaper slower one

grand steeple
#

alright

#

how much gb?

storm osprey
#

personally i would get a nvme drive if its the same price

grand steeple
#

around 200 gb ?

#

or a tb

warped owl
#

500tb

storm osprey
#

like right now newegg has a nvme 1tb crucial p1 for 100 bucks after taxes

#

white a crucial mx500 has a 1tb sata ssd for 107 before taxes

grand steeple
#

i dont understand a word

#

overall whats better for gaming nvidia or amd

storm osprey
#

fps per dollar amd

grand steeple
#

is it cheaper or more expensive

storm osprey
#

cheaper

grand steeple
#

can you show me your specs ? @storm osprey

storm osprey
#

4790 (non k), 1080, 16gb of ram

grand steeple
#

1080ti?

storm osprey
#

nah

grand steeple
#

pretty lit ngl

storm osprey
#

it does me good

#

ill be upgrading my cpu, mb, and ram soon though

grand steeple
#

I heard there was this 5000$ gpu thats not made for gaming

#

although it can make 100fps

#

ez

storm osprey
#

im sure there is

#

but you can probably get 2080ti for 1.1k and get roughly the same performance

grand steeple
#

2080ti is purely gaming though

#

imagine having 2 2080ti

#

😮

storm osprey
#

afaik sli is hardly supported

#

and even when it is the performance doesnt scale 1:1 so its really not worth it

grand steeple
#

pretty lit

storm osprey
#

like a candle

grand steeple
#

you planning on getting a 2080ti @storm osprey

storm osprey
#

heck no

grand steeple
#

why not

storm osprey
#

price to performance doesnt add up for me

#

not to mention the insane base price

#

idk if i can spend more than 600 on a gpu

grand steeple
#

oh

#

how much do you think jackfrags build cost

storm osprey
#

i have no idea what he has

#

probably a lot of sponsored parts

grand steeple
#

he has a 2080ti rtx and a i9-9900k

#

for all i know

storm osprey
#

9900k is like 450 min iirc, and 2080ti base are 1.1k, depends what model he has

#

overall build easily 2k+ if i had to guess

wanton prairie
#

I've hit a crossroad

#

Should I get a new phone or a new graphics card?

prime jasper
#

What do you need more?

wanton prairie
#

Those are the two options

prime jasper
#

Yeah, which one do you probably need the most out of those two

#

How long have you had your graphics card for anyway?

wanton prairie
#

3 years maybe

prime jasper
#

Well they are rendered useless after probably 7 years

storm osprey
#

what gpu you got, what monitor you using, what game you playing and what phone do you have?

wanton prairie
#

The GPU is a mystery

#

On the pc console it's says it's a amd radeon 300 series

#

But when in games it's says its a 200 series

prime jasper
#

How about you just have a chat with nyphon, whilst me, the -no where near- highly experienced one with computers go back to general haHAA

wanton prairie
#

The phone I have atm is the huawai y7 2018

prime jasper
#

Ah crap my cross didn’t work FeelsMeowMan

wanton prairie
#

Both things cost around the same amount of money

storm osprey
#

just looking at phone specs that phone seems fine to me

wanton prairie
#

It's the storage though

storm osprey
#

doesnt it have an sd slot expandable storage?

wanton prairie
#

Not sure

#

The new phone I want is the huawai p30 lite

storm osprey
#

from what i saw online it was an expandable slot

#

i would get a gpu personally

wanton prairie
#

I put as what would be more beneficial to my life

#

And I feel like the phone would be more beneficial

storm osprey
#

well thats for you to decide

mild bough
#

dont buy huawei

#

chinese government spy on you

storm osprey
#

gpu is definitely lacking to modern gpus more than your phone lacks from modern phones

prime jasper
#

😳

wanton prairie
#

That's what they all say

mild bough
#

its ugly aswell

flint locust
#

PepeYikes huawei

wanton prairie
#

What next

#

American government will spy in you

vocal marten
#

well it is true they do have backdoors on all their devices

prime jasper
#

Go to iPhone akshully

mild bough
#

Yeah

#

iPhone 11 is great

vocal marten
#

id rather be spied on by my own government then the chinese

mild bough
#

4k filming

#

4k pictures

#

everything a man needs

prime jasper
#

Jk just go with whatever you can afford and prefer

storm osprey
#

its not like any of us are actually worth spying on

mild bough
#

what do you mean

#

i am the president of the united states

storm osprey
#

ah shit

mild bough
#

and i own gucci and nvidia

storm osprey
#

hello my president

vocal marten
#

yeah but all your info is saved

storm osprey
#

meh, i personally dont care

mild bough
#

and havent i told you the time i took part in the olympics

#

i won aswell

vocal marten
#

i like my privacy

mild bough
#

why you care if people spy on you?

#

as long as they dont take my stuff i am happy

storm osprey
#

idc if people know the exact amount of seconds i spend watching adult material

flint locust
#

about 43 seconds

storm osprey
#

that would be efficient

flint locust
#

tbh

storm osprey
#

i dont see what any of my information does but give data towards the average american that they can use to sell us shit

vocal marten
#

Because the data that is gathered from someone's private life, taken out of context, can hurt them

#

especially if your going into a position with power

#

blackmail and shit

mild bough
#

companies dont do that

#

private persons do that

#

but i get your point man

vocal marten
#

i think companies do lol

mild bough
#

if someone spies on you and screens your dick, that is no fun

#

loll people use facebook?

#

no offense but its getting kinda old, you should switch to instagram

vocal marten
#

heres how i see it. If they want to give up their rights, that's OK. But it isn't OK for them to decide that for you, or for anyone else.

mild bough
#

yeah i aggree to that

#

is it aggree or agree?

#

always confuses me

vocal marten
#

agree

mild bough
#

ok thanks

storm osprey
#

i mean, i am in no position to where china will be like "fuck nyphon"

mild bough
#

But in the terms and conditions where you agree, that is where they get you.

#

yeah fuck nyphon lets make him disappear

storm osprey
#

try it

mild bough
#

try what?

vocal marten
#

yeah there was a terms and conditions for adobe a while back that basically said it would install a virus if you agreed to them and no one saw it lol

mild bough
#

Really?

#

that is just fucked up

vocal marten
#

yeah but it wasnt really a virus just a test

mild bough
#

oh

#

well thats different

vocal marten
#

well they could have if they wanted to haha

mild bough
#

but still, some people probably do that

#

or like, if you agree to this we will come to your house and punch you

vocal marten
#

yeah like that episode of southpark

#

the human centipad

mild bough
#

ahaha

#

havent watched southpark in a long time

#

Oh yeah that episode where kyle gets sewed together with two other people?

#

And he eats one guys shit and shits in one other man face?

vocal marten
#

yeah lmao

#

it was in the terms and conditions 😂

mild bough
#

ahahhaha

#

it was so gross

#

imagine that happening though irl hahahah 🤮

vocal marten
#

the new episodes are good they already got banned in china

mild bough
#

woo thats great

#

I remember season one, damn it was so bad animated lol

fallen harbor
#

guys my default fan settings for my rx590 are kinda shitty because it has a max of like 55% so the gpu reaches 80c in some games so I change the curve and it's better, but always after some time, it goes back to default and I have to do the whole thing again, anyone knows what can i do to fix this?

vocal marten
#

any overclocks?

#

i dont have radeon so im not really familiar with their software but if you had nvidia before i would check to make sure you removed all of their drivers

#

also i would read through this forum. it looks like there is someone in there with a similar issue

fallen harbor
#

no im not doing any overclock

#

i always had amd

#

the only gpu i had prior to this one in this machine was a r9 380

#

and tbh this is a problem i always had with MSI afterburner in other computers as well

#

the GPU fan curve NEVER gets entirely remembered by my computer

#

i thought it was an MSI only thing but now it also happens with AMD settings

#

Microsoft says "security warning please update" basically every week now

violet plank
#

cause they have a weekly patch day?i know they fuck up a lot of their patches,but still lightyears better than android (unless you own a pixel) NotLikeThis

#

ppl not updating their OS / Apps / Drivers causes about 90% of all user problems LUL

pliant hatch
#

can't blame microsoft for being serious about security

mild bough
#

what is this update about?

#

why update like

prime jasper
#

Yes I can when security issues start to take more and more actual work time and my bottom line suffers

#

its a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy, a feedback loop, the security people have a bigger and bigger share of industry profits while the actual functionality of software gets less and less attention

#

remember when 128bit encryption would "end hacking forever" yeah right, pull the other one

violet plank
#

nothing is or will ever be secure,that's just the usual marketing horseshit

#

well maybe you can make things secure,by removing the human element haHAA

#

looks for skynet

#

company security is a whole other issue.it?security?nah,we don't need to spend money there,we will never be hacked or whatever LUL

#

and anyways,the company board members need their third porsche,that's more important 💩

oh

grand geode
#

I'm having issues with BFV. I downloaded the game to play the weekend trial

#

I've had 3 hours left from the previous 10h trial

#

I played for 3 hours and the game has switched off, saying that my trial is over and I need to buy the game

#

Adding the trial via Store doesn't help

sour ivy
#

Contact EA support @grand geode

grand geode
#

Gonna do it

latent light
sour ivy
#

Amd pogslide

full bluff
#

@grand geode let me know what they say

grand geode
#

Well I explained the problem, they asked if they understood correctly that I cannot play the remaining 3 hours

#

I said that no, I already played the remaining 3 hours

#

and explained it all again, even more clear

#

And then "That must be really inconvenient for you as you are unable to play the remaining 3 hours of your free trial of Battlefield V. Rest be assured, I'll certainly give it a look."

#

lol

#

So I explained it again and they said to wait and they'll take a look

#

Did the free weekend start already?

#

It's possible that the free weekend has not started yet.

#

But there is 'Try Free Now' button in the Store, at least for me

molten bramble

^ Isn't really a tech-related conversation. Should move to #general.

silent atlas
#

Usually origin lets me play BF5

#

but since i updated windows it detects an old nvidia driver, when i have new one

#

geforce wont launch for some reason, told me to restart computer, so i did, happened again

vocal marten
#

uninstall and reinstall your drivers

vocal marten
#

thanks did you figure it out?

silent atlas
#

downloading new driver now

vocal marten
#

nice. i had issues with geforce experience too since the new windows update and i had to uninstall all the drivers and reinstall geforce experience

silent atlas
#

its working thanks!

#

Would you like payment in the form of a monkey gif

storm osprey
#

even if he says no you better post that monkey gif

vocal marten

i would love one

chrome rose
#

Anyone here with gud pc knowledge??

#

I need to buy a monitor (gaming duuh.) but can’t decide

vocal marten
#

1440?

chrome rose
#

Umm well idk😂

#

144hz 1ms should do it

vocal marten
#

whats your specs

#

personally i have 1440 144hz and love it man its fantastic

chrome rose
#

Well i will be building my pc in just a few days specs would be 1660ti or 2060 and i5 or amd 3600

#

@vocal marten what do u suggest?

vocal marten
#

very nice

latent light
#

3600 + 2060 or RX 5700

vocal marten
#

idk man its really up to you and im bias cause i like amd lol so i would say 3600 for sure

#

what gwimace says pretty much

chrome rose
#

No about the monitors

vocal marten
#

ahh

chrome rose
#

Yea

vocal marten
#

i have this and its been great for me so far

latent light
#

$600

vocal marten
#

i noticed a lot of people have ben q as well

chrome rose
#

Way way way way way way way out of budget

vocal marten
#

i got it on sale

chrome rose
#

Yaa i have been looking for benQ monitors as well

vocal marten
#

im honestly not too familiar with monitors i had my cousin help me decide on that plus i got mine for 250 on black friday so it wasnt really a hard decision for me

latent light
#

@chrome rose LG 24GL600F

chrome rose
#

Leme check

latent light
#

1080p 144hz for $180

#

Yaa

#

Though i can go a bittt more than that lolif there’s any better

#

@latent light

vocal marten
#

Acer XF240H

latent light
#

do you like curved?

vocal marten
#

doesnt look too bad if thats still in your price range

#

1920 x 1080

#

24 inch

chrome rose
#

@latent light no not curved but do u know if any benQ monitors are good??

#

Like BenQ Xl2411P?

latent light
#

yeah it's good but looks like a generic office monitor

latent light
#

BenQ Xl2411P

vocal marten
#

asus monitor i havent really heard much about them tho

chrome rose
#

@latent light yes this is the one

#

@vocal marten ya me too heard about ghosting in em n stuff though

vocal marten
#

ahh that sucks looks like a pretty good deal on that one tbh

latent light
#

this is a good one too

chrome rose
#

So many optionssss dudeeee lol

#

😂🔥

vocal marten
#

yeah depends too on what gpu you decide to roll with

chrome rose
#

BenQ Xl2411P ? @latent light

#

@vocal marten one more thing besides this

latent light
#

benQ one is good

#

just a bit older model

chrome rose
#

Umm should i go for it?

vocal marten
#

from what ive read i wouldnt go for the older ben q's

chrome rose
#

Confused confused confused im

#

One more thing

#

Is freesync or g sync a need?

#

@vocal marten

vocal marten
#

its not necessary but it really helps

chrome rose
#

Like do u keep it on?

vocal marten
#

i would definetly decide on which youd prefer

#

i keep mine on

#

i use gsync

chrome rose
sharp egret
#

anyone know what's mean latam ?

chrome rose
#

Yaaa keep em coming they are only making me drown😂

#

@sharp egret google might i guess

vocal marten
#

haha well personally for video cards i prefer nvidia

#

so gsync is what i went with

chrome rose
#

I too will be going with nvidia only

sharp egret
#

@chrome rose yeah i check google but cant find anyting

vocal marten
#

latam might stand for latin america idk

#

depends on the context i guess

sharp egret
#

hmm

prime jasper
#

yeah it does

sharp egret
#

its mean latin america?

vocal marten
#

ahh that was a good guess then lol

prime jasper
#

and we cant really comment on that, if you go with a third party provider of license keys like g2a, its at your own risk.

chrome rose
#

Is acer serving good?@vocal marten

vocal marten
#

i think ive seen it on airline tickets before tbf

#

yeah my acer has had zero issues

#

my last acer i had for 5 years

#

it still works too

latent light
#

that BenQ monitor doesn't have FreeSync or G-Sync

prime jasper
#

trying to get a regional license key for cheap .. I wouldn't do it

#

you may end up wasting that money for a few euros saved

#

shrugs

vocal marten
#

ive never really messed with g2a just always waited for steam sales lol

sharp egret
#

yes i will do it like that thanks for help all

i have an i5 8400 gtx 1050 ti can i run this game

prime jasper
#

!!specs

silent oasisBOT
supple bane

yeah

#

you can

#

1080p, lowest settings, 40 fps

fast stirrup
#

Like On low settings?

supple bane
#

expect that

molten coral
#

@fast stirrup You can try out the game and see if it works as there is a trial weekend going on at the moment.

fast stirrup

if i play on 720 p low settings how many frames

90-100

solid jewel
#

origin access

sour ivy
#

It will run just won’t be great

solid jewel
#

quick question while we are at it. What would be considered a decent-good framerate

prime jasper
#

whatever your monitors refresh rate is

solid jewel
#

144hz

supple bane
#

then 144

prime jasper
#

same, I get anywhere from 90-120 which looks fine as it is

sour ivy
#

I have 15 hz monitor

solid jewel
#

120-144hz look would be good then, as it allows it to run a bit lower to counter tearing

prime jasper
#

tearing is a non issue if you have freesync

storm osprey
#

if youre a super sweaty try hard apparently the pros dont use any sync since it adds input lag

sour ivy
#

No

storm osprey
#

yes

sour ivy
#

Never

violet plank
#

always go -3 fps from your max monitor refresh rate,it prevents any tearing/lags from sync handovers

#

easiest way is to set it in riva tuner

#

144hz monitor,set frame limit to 141 for example

pallid silo
#

Ryzen 5 2600 and gtx 1070 enough for VR? :)

#

ten seven-hundred kay

#

ten thousand seven-hundred kay doesn't sound good

oof these new CPUs require a new motherboard

sour ivy
#

4 core 8 thread

#

For 130

#

Ryzen 2600

latent light
#

they won't work on Z370/Z390

molten coral
#

Eh, in Dutch it doesn't really make sense to say it like ten seven-hundred as we have to say ten thousand seven hundred HAhaa

storm osprey
#

technically english doesnt make sense either

#

but we just stylize it like that

#

also, this sounds like a good pricing war

#

people were saying that amds cost of production are lower since they are on 7nm, which if thats the case amd can lower prices on their line up to compete with comet lake

violet plank
#

huh,intel is readying another 14nm+++++ paper launch ?

latent light
#

if AMD can sell Ryzen 5 1600 for only $80, they won't have problems pricing the 3600 to $150 lol

#

I bet the 3600 will be close to that price by the end of the year

sour ivy
#

damn i might have to bbuy it then

#

could sell my 2600x for 80

#

and my 1060 for 100 sumthin

easy 3600

wonder what before and after thermals would look like

jesus thats not even that old either

lol if that pc hits 1c its just vaporized

@vocal marten NOT THAT OLD!?!

#

this is going back to when chipsets were mounted above the pcie slot

mild bough
#

you know that most people dont know what that means right

supple bane
#

wut

vocal marten
#

meh i guess its relative

supple bane
#

pretty sure most people in here know what a chipset is

mild bough
#

ok youre just tryna embarass me

prime jasper
#

hello will i be able to run battlefield 1 on an rx460 4gb ram medium settings 50 fps ?

#

ping me for any answers

supple bane
#

@prime jasper no

#

low 30fps if lucky

prime jasper
#

oh...

supple bane
#

oh wait bf1

#

ermm

#

im not sure, ill check

prime jasper
#

in my friends house he had an gtx 750 and 4gb ram and he had like 50-55 fps on campaing medium-high graphics

#

but i m more worried for multyplayer

#

multi*

supple bane
#

by the looks of it yeah you will get around 60 fps on medium settings on bf 1

prime jasper
#

on multiplayer too ?

supple bane
#

yeah

prime jasper
#

YESS

supple bane
#

the campaign to multiplayer fps difference isnt all that great fyi

#

it will be about the same

prime jasper
#

i m happy bout that

#

thanks for the info if you play on pc and need a mate i m here

prime jasper
#

hmm i have 1060 16gb ram dual channel and 7th i5 what are the recommended 60 fps settings on bf5

supple bane
#

what is the i5 ?

#

like is it the 7400 ? the 7500 ?

prime jasper
#

7400

supple bane
#

on medium you will get 50-60 fps

latent light
#

@prime jasper you will get stutter just because the 7400 only has 4 cores and 4 threads

prime jasper
#

hmmmm

supple bane
#

again, i had those specs and i didnt stutter one bit

#

and i have video proof of that

latent light
#

it's a weak CPU, even for BF1

supple bane
#

i dont disagree, and i didnt say that,

latent light
#

BF5 is a bad optimized game

supple bane
#

i have first hand experience with those exact specs

#

I am trying to convince him to buy Ryzen instead of Intel, and I am lacking out of arguments.

it out performs intel at its price point

But is AMD Ryzen 9 3900X good?

MW is the same way but 170GB, it might be due to the amount of stuff they might plan to add in the future, just some space that you know could be used at some point. Obviously, a single game that's 150GB is HUGE but it could just be some buffer room

because i care about visuals

no gpu on the market can get 4k at those frame rates

AMDs patents show that they will have better implementations of Ray-Tracing than Nvidia

#

AMD's recent raytracing patent suggests a design that's actually ahead of anything Nvidia has currently. They reuse the memory of the texture units for the RT cores, saving a ton of die space (and thus cost). Of course Nvidia could have something similar in the works, but as of now AMD's upcoming tech seems, at the least, is ahead of what Nvidia has now.

I've been playing kingdom come for the first time and uuh

#

it makes my gpu go 80c even with a fixed fan curve

#

but that's not exactly the problem i want to talk about rn

#

the problem is that sometimes, like once every minute or even more frequently, i can hear the gpu fans spin stronger for a couple of seconds

#

like its reaching a limit so bad it automatically speeds up

maybe its ignoring my settings idk

anyone knows?

latent light
#

RX 590 is way more efficient than the 580 when compared at same clock speeds

#

if you drop a 590 to around 1350-1400 MHz, you can get a huge undervolt

fallen harbor
#

i dont think i understand what this means tbh x_x

#

sorry

#

what does a huge undervolt mean?

latent light
#

undervolt to reduce the power consumption

supple bane
#

@fallen harbor I think I’m what you mean

#

are he fans like going really fast and making a loud screaming noise

#

and then going back to normal ?

#

if so, I get the same thing every so often

fallen harbor
#

yes

#

but it shouldnt be happening considering my custom fan curve has a constant elevation up to 90%

sour ivy
#

@fallen harbor did u replace the thermal paste yet

prime jasper
#

i just got a new ryzen 5 3600 and an rtx 2080
while playing bfv the cpu temp hit max of 98 C

is that safe or is there smth wrong here?

hwmonitor

try ryzen master

#

see if the temps are different

#

oke

sour ivy
#

Way too high

#

Did u instal ur cooler right

prime jasper
#

yupp

#

im getting around 80 C and 84 max on ryzen master @prime jasper

thats more normal then

you may have an airflow issue or something with the cooler if it isnt a stock one

#

oh

im using the stock cooler rn

#

thats fine, just dont try to overclock on it

#

alright

#

how do i make sure it isnt overclocked already?

#

well it isnt if you havent messed with the bios already lol

#

hmm i haven't but maybe the person who installed the parts did something?

#

idk tbh

#

lol so its a prebuilt?

#

nope

#

i had a 1060 and r5 1600 already but i just upgraded to these

#

are you on the latest bios and chipset drivers?

yup

sour ivy

Still seems kind of hot tbh

prime jasper

sour ivy

Idk how much hotter the 3600 runs than the 2600x but mine never goes over 70 on stock cooler

prime jasper
#

well i just checked task manager and it says base speed is 3.60 but current is around 3.70-3.80

#

does that have to do anything with it?

#

airflow issue perhaps, an rtx2080 runs much hotter

you need good airflow regardless, your last setup didnt draw as much power or heat

but probably not

bf1 needs closer to 10 Gb of ram

prime jasper

well my friend that has an gtx 750 and 4gb ram could run the story on medium settings 50-60 fps

supple bane
#

idk then

#

but all of your hardware is pretty outdated

prime jasper
#

well planing to buy 16 gigs of ram in the future found a good price

supple bane
#

I don’t know how bf1 performs tbh, I’m really just guessing

prime jasper
#

oh

supple bane
#

I wouldn’t bother with your specs

#

if you upgrade everything then yeah get 16gb

prime jasper
#

i wont upgrade everything i l just get a good ram

supple bane
#

just get 8gb then

#

Your specs won’t use 16gb

mild bough
#

buy 32gb ram

prime jasper
#

wait

#

wdym they wont ?

supple bane
#

how a cpu works is it takes instructions from the code in your harddrive and temporarily stores the data on ram. it then takes instructions from the ram and processes it

#

so in theory, the slower the cpu, the less ram needed

prime jasper
#

oh

#

so an 8 ?

#

or 12 ?

mild bough
#

buy atleast 16gb ram

prime jasper
#

yess

#

how much did you get yours ?

#

@prime jasper whats your motherboard or model of i3? you may have an 8th gen

supple bane
#

@mild bough for him there wouldn’t be any point getting 16gb

I promise you it wouldn’t be utilised

#

if he has an 8th or 9th gen i3 then yeah maybe

prime jasper
#

cpu : intel core i3 6098p 3.60Ghz Motherboard: Assus H110M-D ddr4

mild bough
#

well for me i could use 32gb

supple bane
#

no, no you couldn’t

#

all you do it gaming

#

games use 12gb mostly

prime jasper
#

so i l buy 12 ?

supple bane
#

no because to buy 12 you have to mix and match ram

#

And that’s bad

prime jasper
#

so at the end how much will i buy

#

i dont wanna stay with 4

#

is shit

#

you're not going to be able to game very well on that dual core anyway

supple bane
#

yeah

prime jasper
#

unless you play really old stuff

supple bane
#

which is why I’m saying just get 8

#

because 16 won’t be utilised

prime jasper
#

the worse thing is ?

#

that

supple bane
#

there is no point unless you upgrade everything

#

wait you ordered a hard copy ?pogu

prime jasper

no no no

so 8 right ???

Honestly though, 2x8GB (16GB total) DDR4 Ram isn’t that expensive so why limit yourself to just 8GB whether it’s 1x8GB or 2x4GB?

supple bane
#

because for his specs he doesnt need 16gb so why double the price

summer comet
#

Surely you’ll upgrade in the future. I got 16GB for around $80 USD

prime jasper
#

his chipset is dead, he needs a new mobo/cpu to upgrade

summer comet
#

I see it going anywhere from $65 to $85 depending on company and MHz. It makes sense to just go for the good stuff now rather than realizing later you need more

#

I run the i7-9700K with 32GB DDR4 with a GTX 1060 6GB. I’ve always been a fan of having more rather than less.
I picked up hobbies such as video editing and making music so having the extra horsepower and a beefy CPU is really convenient for me. It’s all about future potential.

An 8-core without hyperthreading isn't future proof

If you got a 9900K instead, that would be 40% faster in multithreaded workloads

Intel has already reached the IPC limits of 14nm

the only thing they will add to 14nm is more cores and maybe slightly higher clock speeds

mild bough

its not good that intel and amd dont compete

Since then we wont get better stuff for lower prices

storm osprey

tbf they are competing to certain degrees, intel still does better for gaming, even though the gap isnt that big, amd offers more cores, and typically lower prices

mild bough
#

Yeah

#

Unless youre rich boy, you should go for AMD a wise man said to me.

#

But I saw an AMD cpu to 400$ and it had 12 cores...

Then I saw on Intel, only 6 cores.

#

Price difference is real

storm osprey

that phrase basically talks about price to performance ratios

and cores isnt the end all

What more I need to focus on CPUs?

storm osprey

frequency is important

Wdym by that?

storm osprey

base frequency, 3.6ghz

#

Oh that stuff

#

So if an AMD cpu got 12 cores, and have 4ghz...

#

Its good?

storm osprey
#

i mean yea its good, but a 6 core 4ghz intel cpu can outperform that amd cpu because of other factors

#

depends on the application

mild bough
#

the game?

storm osprey
#

the game yes

mild bough
#

oh ok

#

But I dont get how a 6 core 4ghz could outperform 12core 4ghz

storm osprey
#

because not all games are optimized to scale off of core count

it isnt till recently that even triple a games really benefitted from more than 4 cores

mild bough

oh ok

But Minecraft is CPU intensive right?

For anyone that can help me, I recently bought Battlefield 5 because it was on sale on the Origin Store and i know for certain it doesn't play well on my pc because I have an i5-7600k and I followed a fps boost which makes the game run on low settings but it doesnt bother me at all. To my question, Everytime I play, Discord runs fine but I can't talk at all when I play this game. I don't know if its a setting in the game or something thats making it mess up but I can't talk at all when I'm in a channel on Discord when the game is running. Hopefully there is a solution to this and that I can possibly have this resolved.

that fan curve stuff happens to plenty of GPUs

do you have any suggestions?

I had a GTX 770 that would randomly spike to 100% fan speed when I turned on/off my PC or exited a game

fallen harbor

yeah this gpu also does that whenever i wake the pc up

also, your GPU probably has a BIOS switch

#

since it's a Sapphire

Wattman is known to have dodge reporting too

fallen harbor

yes

latent light

could switch to a different BIOS

fallen harbor
#

im not sure what you mean

i dont want to bother you but could you elaborate a bit more?

#

idk much about bios

latent light
#

GPU has its own BIOS

fallen harbor
#

oic

#

didnt know that

latent light
#

usually a overclock BIOS or a silent BIOS

fallen harbor
#

are you suggesting to upgrade my gpu's bios?

#

update*

latent light
#

you don't upgrade it

#

you just flick a switch that's on the GPU itself

fallen harbor
#

yes but what it will do is booting my pc directly to the bios menu

#

are you suggesting me to do something about that?

#

i think i never touched a gpu's bios before so idk what would be good to do there

latent light
#

it basically treats each point as if they were individual temperature and fan targets, but doesn't auto generate any points between the ones you specify.

so if you end up setting it up like 50% fan at 60 C and 60% fan at 65 C, it will stay at 50% fan until it hits 65 C then immediately jump to 60%. If 60% brings it back below 65 C by even 1 degree, it will drop back to 50%, heat up again, and essentially bounce between fan speeds.

#

this is probably what's happening to you

fallen harbor
#

ooh

#

yeah maybe i misinterpreted the interface

#

ill test on that soon

#

in that case i feel i need more dots

fallen harbor
#

anyone got a site like this but for comparing CPUs instead?

You should be fine @errant shell

#

@errant shell if it edits the game files then it's probably a "you may get caught for it, but you may not"

#

I know that the cinetools for the older games were a possible ban

#

@latent light hey mate so I have my old 5820K and mobo and ram from an old build still, and was thinking that I might swap it out instead of the R5 2600 that I currently have in my server. Which would you reccomend would be better for server stuffs? Both 6 core 12 thread and all...

#

performance -> 5820k,power saving -> r5 2600

#

specially if u use quad chan ram

prime jasper
#

unless you overclock the 5820k then the 2600 would have similar performance

Why

#

Does my pc heat up more on Bf1 then Bf5

violet plank
#

not entirely true,depends on the mobo,quad chan ram on a server destroys the r5 pretty much,and the 5820k overclocks very very good

#

i used a 5820k as hedt for 2 years and as server afterwards,oc'ed to 5ghz all core with ease on water,and 4.7 on air

#

but depends on your usage profile as server aswell,if it's only some small stuff with not much parallel access it doesen't matter at all

Am

#

My pc heats more on bf1 then bf5

violet plank
#

for that you could use a 386 and linux haHAA

#

can't help,i don't own bf1

sour ivy
#

How much hotter lol

fallen harbor
#

pay attention to the frame rate and graphic settings always when monitoring temps pls

#

some games might heat more than others that are heavier if they run at significantly higher frame rate

#

also depends on how much % of your gpu the game uses

#

if csgo used 100% of gpus itd run at a thousand fps and heat more than bfv or witcher 3 or whatever

violet plank
#

true lol,i had that with dead space 2,was running on 900fps and killing my gpu and cpu at 100% with fans at 100% LUL

#

ig sync wasn't working

heavy mason
#

My bf1 is all on loe

#

Low* only mesh quality

#

That is on ultra

#

And Bf5 all on High

#

Its like 4-5celsius hotter

Is it a known issue that BFV switches to a different resolution if you select a custom created resolution in the Nvidia Control Panel? I'm trying to run 3440x1440 on my 5120x1440 monitor, but when i select the custom created resolution, it changes to 3840x1080 which is a different option.
I've tested the res in BF4 and have no problems there.

#

Also changing the resolution in the prosave_profile file simly changes the res to 3440x1440 when I start the game.
