80% of 600W

#

worst case

fallen harbor
#

wouldnt that be if it was 80 plus white?

#

can't it be worse?

violet plank
#

no

fallen harbor
#

i think this isnt even white

#

it's also like 6 years old

violet plank
#

80-85%

#

does not matter

#

the age

fallen harbor
#

is some of that wattage shortened after a lot of use?

#

hmm ok

violet plank
#

a psu can easily hold 10-20 years

fallen harbor
#

there's one pc with an i7 3770 and r9 380 and the OS dies from time to time

#

the screen goes black and the audio dies too, the whole pc dies but it's not literally turned off, the lights and fans still work, adn the only solution is to restart it

#

so i am thinking the psu isn't providing enough power

violet plank
#

600w psu is more than enough for that setup

fallen harbor
#

according to psu calculators, it needs 446w

violet plank
#

you can even run an sli setup with that

#

the calculators always go the safe way

#

if you actually measure it,it will be like 100w less

#

on average

#

if you wanna troubleshoot,clean install of the os,after that does not help,disconnect all not necessary hardware,and or start replacing and testing them

fallen harbor
#

do you know what the problem can be then by any chance? i have put that gpu and psu combo in other pcs to make sure it's not a mobo incompatibility or OS problem and the problem still persists

#

and i have never heard of a gpu having a problem like this that happens very often during a week and then maybe absolutely never during an entire year

#

and then again

violet plank
#

try resetting the bios to default

fallen harbor
#

if i remove the GPU, the problem disappears, but idk if that's because the PSU can't stand it or because the GPU is bad

violet plank
#

take the gpu out and connect the monitor to the igpu

fallen harbor
#

try resetting the bios to default
done this, on various pcs

#

take the gpu out and connect the monitor to the igpu

if i remove the GPU, the problem disappears, but idk if that's because the PSU can't stand it or because the GPU is bad

violet plank
#

more likely the gpu

#

exchange the psu?

fallen harbor
#

i dont have any spare psu that has two 6 pins

violet plank
#

you can always install a software monitor to check the psu voltages

fallen harbor
#

thats why i was thinking of buying a new one

#

you can always install a software monitor to check the psu voltages
do you know any?

violet plank
#

like hwinfo64

fallen harbor
#

ok

#

ty

violet plank
#

but to be really sure you'll need to test it with another psu

#

or measure the voltage outputs directly on the psu if you got the proper equipment

fallen harbor
#

can an average old tester do that

violet plank
#

usually yes

#

you only need to see if the voltage is stable

fallen harbor
#

okay

#

tyvm

violet plank
#

yw and good luck

#

there you see the max tolerances

#

check it with hwinfo64 first

fallen harbor
#

this is very rocketsciencish for me

supple bane
#

@violet plank

#

It's not DONE, but its mostly there

#

I need to touch up the scratches with paint and still need to fill some of the mistake holes lol

violet plank
#

oh nice,didn't know you got it there,gonna check

#

nice

#

the close up shots are very blurry tho

#

and ye needs some paint jobs done for a proper finish haHAA

#

and no psu nudes ! NotLikeThis

#

but nicely done for a first desk build!

#

hope the airflow is good enough

supple bane
#

It's pretty good aye

#

I think that's a weird compression issue, the blurryness I mean

#

It gives you an overview at least

#

Also my phone seems to have a hard time focusing on shit like that

#

I'm trying to get it to focus in a black object and its just like ooh bright, shiny lights!!

violet plank
#

light up the room/build or try night mode on your phone if it has any ?

#

might be you phone cam i assume

#

i usually take a dslr camera for that kind of shots

supple bane
#

I also have a dslr

#

But my brother gave it to me and I dont really know how to set it up properly

violet plank
#

phone camera lenses are tiny,so they usually have a hard time to correctly focus

#

at least the cheaper ones

supple bane
#

That's the issue I was having with the dlsr too

#

It wouldnt focus

violet plank
#

just use the auto setting on the dslr

supple bane
#

Both on AF and MF

violet plank
#

not autofocus,the auto setting

supple bane
#

I might have been using the wrong lens, but like I said. I'm useless with that stuff

violet plank
#

af as well ofc

#

like here,the green one

#

or get a better phone cam from someone,easier

supple bane
#

Ooh

#

Yeah I was using auto

violet plank
#

also depends what camera and what lens

#

but if your not into that stuff it's a lot to explain

supple bane
#

Mhm

violet plank
#

rather complicated if you got no experience

supple bane
#

I might dig out my old iphone 6s+

#

Cuz the camera on that was ace

violet plank
#

yeah,not a bad one

#

had it too

#

not the plus tho

opaque saddle
#

...

#

Well there is no point using AUTO if you got a DSLR

violet plank
#

there is,if you have no clue about dslr haHAA

opaque saddle
#

nah yeah i have clue about dslr

violet plank
#

was about granty anyways

opaque saddle
#

yeah

supple bane
#

YEAH

#

derek, its all about me!

opaque saddle
#

try AV aka aperture priority mode

#

then you will know running on full auto is limiting your and your camera's abilities

supple bane
#

you eint gonna get no where lol, im not a camera nerd

opaque saddle
#

i meant it makes your pics look better

supple bane
#

blegh, the whole setting a camera up perfectly is not my thing

#

all i want is to press button gib photo

#

thats why i liked the iphone 6s+ camera, i just press button and it takes perfect photo, no messing around

#

my current phone doesnt do that

violet plank
#

get a xiaomi haHAA

#

can't wait to switch back to an iphone tho

#

12 that is

#

crappy buggy software

#

on android

storm osprey
#

if 12 is a full screen with no notch i might upgrade too

#

(only at base model, im not getting a pro model for that shit)

violet plank
#

still has notch

#

i want the 5.4 inch model,finally a small high end iphone again

#

think notchless is planed for 21-23

#

some kind of prototype next year or stand alone model,no physical connector as well

#

as far as the rumors go

#

same size as the se 2020,feel bad for the ppl who bought that one

#

and starting price of 549$ with 128gb

#

4g model

storm osprey
#

nice

violet plank
#

if prosser is right the notch will be smaller,really hope so

storm osprey
#

the notch doesnt bother me, but notchless would be really cool

violet plank
#

and i really hope they keep the battery life like on the 11 models

#

x,xs are horrible

storm osprey
#

im a light user and my 11 lasts 2 days easily

#

at 80% charge too

violet plank
storm osprey
#

i dont fast charge, i dont full charge

#

and i get to 20% and recharge, something 10%

quaint topaz
#

overnight fast charging gang

opaque saddle
#

GWvertiPeepoSadMan waiting for AUD to rise a bit so i can afford for an iphone

storm osprey
#

overnight fast charging... my heart

molten coral
#

I do the same

storm osprey
#

arent you two the g502 users too?

#

this is all making sense

molten coral
#

I mean it's the logical thing to do

storm osprey
#

NO ITS NOT

molten coral
#

Go to bed> phone almost empty> charge it > sleep> wake up with full battery.

storm osprey
#

YOU DONT EVEN LIKE NACHOS

#

YOU CANT SPEAK OF LOGIC

supple bane
#

das bad for the battery actually

molten coral
#

and it really doesn't effect the battery that much tbh

supple bane
#

you should fully drain it and fully charge it if possible

storm osprey
#

shouldnt*?

supple bane
#

no, should

#

fully drain and fully charge is the best thing for a battery

storm osprey
#

hmmmm

#

HMMMMMMM

#

according to my recent studies

supple bane
#

this is what ive been taught at least

#

i have no evidence to back this up like

storm osprey
#

as far as i remember that WAS a thing to do, but not with modern batteries

supple bane
#

guess my child hood is a lie

storm osprey
#

thats why im charge to 80% and charge at 20%

#

yea i cant find a single recent article that says to charge and drain completely

violet plank
#

apple regulates the charging the best possible way,no need to look after anything,dunno about other brands

#

think it always breaks the loading cycle before it hit's 99%

#

err 100%

storm osprey
#

apple regulates the best, but its still optimal to charge to 80% and keep it above 20%

violet plank
#

urban legend,not valid anymore,at least for modern phones

#

was a huge problem with battery's that had memory effect

storm osprey
#

this is recent readings

#

old phones you actually wanted to max out and fully deplete for "memory"

violet plank
#

but fast charging overnight is beyond me,i mean a full load takes around 3-4 hours max?

#

on normal load

supple bane
#

hmmm

#

somethings not right

#

86c and climbing on my gpu

violet plank
#

open the desk

supple bane
#

it is fucking open

#

its not my desk, its just sitting breathing ambient air

violet plank
#

dafuq

#

reboot lol

supple bane
#

it is scorching hot here atm, like 10c above normal

violet plank
#

but still,86 is high af

supple bane
#

does 1 degree of ambient = 1 degree of temperature climb?

#

if so, that sounds about right

violet plank
#

good question

#

in terms of physics and thermodynamics i guess yeah

#

what room themp do you got,like 30+ C ?

supple bane
#

acording to the thermometer is 27.5

violet plank
#

ouch

supple bane
#

i fucking hate this gpu lol

#

the (2070) part is great

violet plank
#

my gpu get's about 75 with 24 C

supple bane
#

the (gigabyte) part is shite

#

not only did i have all them problems with noise, now this?

storm osprey
#

i called the thermal problem...

violet plank
#

the rtx get hotter,don't think it's gigashite LUL

supple bane
#

the heatsink looks really cheap

#

i got a good view of it with how its sat rn

violet plank
#

ah wait,you got that 2 fan thing right ?

supple bane
#

mhm

violet plank
#

got some mini vent to blow some air inside to test it ?

#

at the card

supple bane
#

not really, no

#

oh another note

#

its not throttling

#

like at all,

#

i have the temp limit set to 81, and it will still turbo 100mhz over boost clock all the way up and past that

#

boost clock of a 2070 is 1625, im turboing to 1725

violet plank
#

what's the default thermal limit of turing cards?85?

supple bane
#

from what i can see, the max temperature is 88

#

but im not sure what that means

#

IE is that what it throttles at, is that what it shuts down at etx

storm osprey
#

granty needs some unrestrictive intake air

violet plank
#

he said the desk is open atm?

supple bane
#

yeah

#

i kinda have a feeling covering it will result in better temperatures

storm osprey
#

ehhh, only if you have insanely good airflow

#

otherwise theres no way

supple bane
#

ill show why i think that in a sec

storm osprey
#

(theres a reason most benchmarks are done on open test benches)

violet plank
#

i know of my card that it very very rarely won't turbo down,i'll just have to do a reboot then to resolve it

supple bane
#

with the top open, those fans are just puffing air up and past the gpu

#

but with it closed, it will hit the top and then replace the hot air around the gpu if that makes sense

#

basically with it open, those fans are doing nothing, with it closed, i have 3 120's directly helping the gpu

violet plank
#

turing cards have a temp limit of 88 C,so maybe something is overwriting your 81,or some software part/driver is hung

supple bane
#

im gonna go get some cardboard

#

put it over the top, see what happens. then ill try a reboot. then ill just wait for it to cool down outside

#

it should be much colder tommorow i think

#

so basically, i still have options

violet plank
#

fill it with ice cubes haHAA

#

where do you got your air intakes btw?only that small hole on top ?

supple bane
#

the 3 fans which i circled dingus

violet plank
#

nvm i see it

#

yeah

violet plank
#

so you got an overpressure,any other outlets?

#

besides the 2 fan rad

supple bane
#

erm

#

no

violet plank
#

not so good

supple bane
#

its not overpressure

violet plank
#

you got more intake than outlet

supple bane
#

its no where near sealed enough

violet plank
#

and no mesh or stuff

#

ah ok

storm osprey
#

@supple bane i love you for the mean girls reference

im a genious!!!!

#

hehehe, sometimes my clever knows no bounds

#

covered the top with cardboard, saw a high of 80c, got bored and took it off, instantly shot to 84 and im still climbing

Xbox One X has 6 tflop but has an insanely weaker CPU

#

Series S still uses a Ryzen CPU like the Series X

#

So you can expect at least 1080p 60 fps in all games

kind kiln
#

IIRC both PS and Xbox used AMD CPUs for a long time now

#

No wonder why

latent light
#

Yeah because if they used any other company consoles would be much more expensive to manufacture

#

The APU die inside the Xbox Series X and PS5 is estimated to have a $60-80 manufacturing cost

#

AMD is able to make an APU with Ryzen 7 3700X (boost disabled) and RTX 2080 level of performance for that price is pretty neat

Blame Sony for putting a shitty fan in the PS4

what i dont get, is if they have that tech for console, why not implement it on pc?

digital hill

Money

supple bane

oh they would make a hell of a lot more money if they made a 3700x and 2080 combo for 70 bucks lmao

digital hill

Well the die is soldered on

molten coral

Wondering if I could have a Playstation dual booth on my PC mmhhh

digital hill
#

and cpu and ram is all soldered

supple bane
#

that doesnt matter, they have the know how on how to make the die

#

if they can make it soldered, they can make a way to implement it on consumer platforms

#

but they dont.

digital hill
#

Also its exculsives to consoles because they will make money off the console

supple bane
#

they would also make money from pc?

#

your telling me if you could get a 3700x and a 2080 for 70 bucks you wouldnt jump on that ?

#

i know i would

#

its a fact that if they released that to consumers, it would make them millions

#

if not billions tbh

latent light
#

70 bucks manufacturing cost not price

supple bane
#

ok, so 200 bucks

#

still fucking crazy cheap

latent light
#

Yeah AMD should get into that

#

Putting console APUs in desktops

#

Wouldn't be modular tho because the RAM has to be directly connected to the APU

I mean we don't want the ps4 and xbox one cpu those were pretty bad

I have a video in the edit of how much of a temp improvement there is from having the plexiglass on vs off

#

I cant believe my outlandish theory was actually correct face

supple bane
#

@violet plank

#

7 degree improvement having the top on vs off

#

in my old case, my gpu would consistently hit 81-83 degrees, im now capped at 75. thats with an overclock on too. so probably 72 without it

better suction i guess

AMD is being strangely quiet about RDNA2

All they've said is 50% higher performance per watt over RDNA1 and hardware ray tracing

Question is why didn't try ray tracing on rx series of cards

opaque saddle
#

Feels like business decisions to me

storm osprey
#

sounds like the smart decision to me

#

its new tech, hardly supported, most people care about fps per dollar, etc

the list goes on and on

I’d say if 5700XT with RT and AMD won’t be able to provide good price and performance to against 2060 and 2070 with RT

Will GTX 1080 be able to run future games on 1080p Ultra

and give good fps

?

#

I bought a 1080 when it was just released

How man FPS would I get on Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p max settings

i fairly sure gtx1080 can still handle games at 60fps at good looking graphics

Hi guys

latent light
#

Announcement: no later than September
Launch: no later than November

#

Also, Ryzen 7 4700GE is a monolithic Zen2 APU

#

The fact that it has a monolithic die means a significant improvement to latency

#

Roughly 47 nanoseconds

violet plank
#

well i hope the availability won't be so shitty as it was with zen 2,else you can add up like 3-4 extra months NotLikeThis

latent light
#

Ryzen 4000 is supposedly a bigger jump than what 3000 was

#

So yeah it will sell out real quick

storm osprey
#

fuuuu

#

so i gotta get a pre order in for 3080 and 4600 asap?!

violet plank
#

maybe add your liver to the pre order just to be sure haHAA

supple bane
#

makes me wonder if it was worth waiting to get a new gpu now

#

got a 2070 in april. would it have been worth waiting the what? 6 months or so?

#

actually saying that, my budget probably would have only got me a 3060, and if history has told me anything, a 3060 will equal a 2070

#

cuz 2060=1070
1060=970

violet plank
#

buying computer parts never has a right time,buy it,and it's already obsolete the day after CloseCat

supple bane
#

also i was thinking, this desk pc has basically removed any upgrade paths for me haHAA

violet plank
#

why?

#

you still can replace everything,can't you ?

#

or did you hardseal the plexi?

supple bane
#

well for a start, the gap for my motherboard is measured FOR my motherboard. so i would need to find one smaller or the same size which i imagine being a pain. secondly the hold for the GPU is the exact size for that gpu.

#

you get the pointt

#

oh wait. gpu wouldnt matter

violet plank
#

oh,didn't know that

#

hope you got an atx size board lol

supple bane
#

i also have no drive expandability other than m.2 and just gluing the drive to the under side of the desk

violet plank
#

there has been a 8tb m.2 released

Question

violet plank
#

only cost you a kidney LUL

digital hill
#

Did you install mounting points like standoffs

violet plank
#

good question

supple bane
#

yes

digital hill
#

because if you used standoffs then maybe you could upgrade it

violet plank
#

not maybe,for sure

supple bane
#

as far as im aware, ATX just means the standoffs are in a universal place, the board can still be different dimentions

violet plank
#

atx specs are same for all boards

#

mini,normal,e-atx

supple bane
#

see, i have 2 spare matx boards, and they are very different sizes

violet plank
#

mini=itx

supple bane
#

same mounting points, difference sizes

violet plank
#

oh you got one of those mini boards?

supple bane
#

maybe

violet plank
#

err micro

#

that's bad then

#

for upgrading

supple bane
#

not rn

#

i have a full atx board

violet plank
#

well if you stay with that,no problem then

#

most common boards anyways

#

e-atx are overpriced

#

itx are good for nuc's,don't see why using them for a normal/gaming pc

#

or if you want to extreme oc/ln2oc you'll go for 2 dim boards (or how i call them,weirdo boards) LUL

#

why do i find it soothing watching this CloseCat

#

think i'm gonna do that with my ps4,curious how much dirt (if any) is inside,and how the thermal paste looks like

storm osprey
#

seemed a little to intensive for my liking personally

#

i would just open the top and "canned air' the blower and heatsinks best i could

violet plank
#

dunno if that's enough

storm osprey
#

well i sold my ps4 anyway so 🤷

violet plank
#

playing tlou2 was just enough to want me go all in lol

#

i always was under the impression my ps4 pro was never this loud ffs

storm osprey
#

lol thankfully i used my friends GOW edition console which was stupid quiet compared to my pro

violet plank
#

haven't used it like half a year or more before playing tlou2

storm osprey
#

im pretty sure mine was considered one of the worst

#

it was a lunch pro model

violet plank
#

mine is a launch too

#

but it is or was so much quieter than my old regular ps4

#

literally could not play tlou2 without headphones NotLikeThis $

digital hill
#

My ps4 slim is kinda quiet but on full load it becomes a small jet engine

violet plank
#

ps4 cooling design is a full fail it seems

#

are xbox that loud as well ?

digital hill
#

I have no idea but i have caused a big problem with my xp x64

#

It's bsod

#

like a quick bsod because one driver installation was taking forever so I restarted

storm osprey
#

xbox are not nearly as loud iirc

digital hill
#

Well shit I gotta reinstall it loosk like

storm osprey
#

theres a lot of space in them and a sizeable fan, i think 120m

#

xbox one s

digital hill
#

No it somehow started up

violet plank
#

bleh,but they can't play tlou

#

way better design

digital hill
#

Then hope the ps5 got good cooling

storm osprey
#

ps5 is massive so it better

violet plank
#

if they fuck up the cooling with the ps5 and that huge size....

digital hill
#

They put a 90mm jet engine as a cooler

storm osprey
#

xD

violet plank
#

problem is that shitty radial cooler

#

if they only used and axial

digital hill
#

So even if its cool you ain't escaping the loud noises of a jet engine

violet plank
#

like on the pic with the xbox

#

ye

#

sucks that sony exclusive games are better NotLikeThis

#

would have preferred a xbox series x

molten coral
#

Just make your own case

violet plank
#

well,anything that plays on the xbox i can play on pc

#

or am i wrong?

#

or do you mean an own case for the ps5 ?

molten coral
#

yes

#

just make your own case for the ps5

storm osprey
molten coral
violet plank
#

yeah that's the linus thread

molten coral
#

that is dope

storm osprey
#

thats a bit much

violet plank
#

i actually have all the parts lying around for that mod

storm osprey
#

do it

#

dont just clean it

#

mod it

violet plank
#

but i don't wanna spend that much time for an almost obsolete console

#

well electronics parts

#

would have to get plexi and tools for the cutout

storm osprey
#

dont need that

violet plank
#

?

storm osprey
#

the flexi

#

plexi*

violet plank
#

but it looks better

#

and easier to mount the cooler imo

molten coral
#

Heck just got another e-mail from Dell that my laptop got delayed even more AngeryCatDance

violet plank
#

ffs i'm just gonna do a full cleaning and re apply the thermal paste,everything else will be with the ps5

storm osprey
#

id just cut a hole and leave it at that

violet plank
#

so i can sell it maybe

#

could be worse nacho,could be lenovo LUL

#

or i mod it that way if you buy it from me @storm osprey haHAA

storm osprey
#

no thank you

#

i had a chance to get the tlou ps4 pro and i passed on that

violet plank
#

so cleaning it is

#

and selling

#

hope there is a way to export/import save games from the ps4 to the 5

latent light
#

@storm osprey what did you think of tlou2

storm osprey
#

incredible all around

#

theres some bumps with the story, but its not nearrrrly as bad as the angry vocal make it seem

#

i personally think most of those people are likely just wanted a trope ridden story for its genre and or just dumb

violet plank
#

i go for dumb for 90% of them haHAA

storm osprey
#

agreed

violet plank
#

what's the plural of bios?bioses? gigaMeowStatic

storm osprey

hmm,seems it is actually BIOSes

@rough pawn Please don't post the same video in multiple channels.

summer comet
#

Ultimately, it's all preference.

storm osprey
#

general rule of thumb is to not upgrade for less than a 30% performance increase

summer comet
#

Some people get new cards every time a new series is dropped and some people go a few series without upgrading.. depends on tons of things (ie budget, power, etc)

storm osprey
#

though that doesnt say say when to upgrade, just a "worthwhile" upgrade

#

yea, im still using a 1080

#

im waiting for 3080

summer comet
#

I'm on a 1060... at least gonna wait for the 3000 series to either drive 2000 series prices down or maybe just get a 3000 series

storm osprey
#

im really only upgrading because i got a 4k tv that i want to play games on at 4k with and my 1080 is just not good enough

summer comet
#

I'm gonna be upgrading to 1440p soon 🎉

storm osprey

ayyyyyyyy

1440p is really nice

Linustechtips

my fav tech youtuber

supple bane
#

can someone explain this to me. why when i transfer multiple smaller files, the R/W speed is much lower compared to one large file?

#

im assuming there is some form of initiation before the file can transfer. and if it has to do that for every file the speed reduces, which makes sense, but i wouldnt have thought it cuts it to a fraction of the normal speed

molten bramble
#

@supple bane Not sure whether you're speaking locally or across a network interface, but in either case it had to do with the overhead of the process, checksum verification, compression, and latency. For a single large file, there is less that must be done to validate the integrity of the file in transport, but with smaller files, that has to be done for each file which adds to the queue time.

supple bane
#

Locally, yeah I assumed it had something to do with preparing files, was just wondering if maybe it was a design flaw with modern storage media or sommot like that lol, I was seeing like 1/50th of my normal transfer speeds, pretty crazy really

molten bramble
#

I used to have a link that shows how everything is disassembled, reassembled, and checked. I'll see if I can find it.

violet plank
#

almost the same as ftp protocol

#

and it's not a flaw,it's for file integrity and security

#

start protocol -> transfer -> end protocol to put it in an easy way

#

imagine doing that for 1 file or 2000,adds up like hell

#

bit like this to visualize it,not accurate for direct file copy,just to get a picture of it

#

had a slide of it,but can't find it atm,maybe hydra has more luck

iGPU performance is disappointing tho Intel will catch up in iGPU performance soon

supple bane

hmmmm, my gpu seems to be clocking wrong

#

my gpu memory should clock at 7000mhz, and i had it overclocked to 7200mhz, but i just noticed that im getting 7000mhz on memory but thats with the overclock enabled

#

with the overclock off im sitting att 6800mhz

#

im 99% sure its an issue with msi afterburner

latent light

Why I don't buy Intel

hmmm

considering to buy a new cpu

#

currently got i7-8700

storm osprey
#

uhhh i wouldnt

tulip oyster
#

or should i upgrade ram

#

i got trash ram, 16gb 2133mhz

storm osprey
#

unless you are doing something outside of gaming 8700 is pretty ideal

#

2133 isnt bad for intel iirc

tulip oyster
#

2133mhz on my ramm

#

Not cppu

storm osprey
#

not to the point that upgrading would see you any performance gain

tulip oyster
#

ohh

storm osprey

amd scales off ram well, intel doesnt

tulip oyster

I've always wantez 64gb 3666mhz tbh

storm osprey

hmm, nvm looking up benchmarks some games actually get a good boost from 3200 ram

tulip oyster

Ohh really?

I don't need to upgrade ram tbh

What I really need is watercooling or more storage

I want a baracuda 3tb hdd disk,

idk your system to recommend upgrades

Monitor would be a nice to upgrade to 144hz

tulip oyster
#

Yeah I think that aswell

#

Maybe a 2560x1440 144hz with g-sync

#

27"

latent light
#

@tulip oyster 2133 MHz does not compliment a good CPU like that

#

Going to 3000 would yield about 15% more performance

Honestly worth it if you have 144hz monitor or higher

tulip oyster

ohhhh

Gaming laptops are super expensive for what you get remember, but for playing most games at medium that'll run them

supple bane

its gonna be expensive, wont have an upgrade path, will run really hot and just in every way will be worse than a desktop. but it will play the latest games

@tulip oyster you still havent gotten a new monitor? glare

you have an rtx 2070 for litterally no reason other than raytracing at this point

Intel shot themselves in the foot with this new gen by locking memory overclocking and only supporting it on the expensive Z chipsets

Guys I want to get 144fps on Rainbow Six Siege, I use all of my settings in low and I get +110- fps (sometimes 70fps in terrorist hunt idk why)
What should I replace to get more fps? I have a:
GTX 1050 TI
Amd fx 8320
8GB DDR3
An old 2013 or 2012 motherboard that do not support new generation (ryzen for example) processors
1TB HD
250GB SSD
A normal PC case
and 3 coolers

#

btw I don't know the motherboard name but it's from asus

latent light
#

@north fable Fx-8320 simply doesn't have the IPC to maintain 144 fps in over 90% of games

#

That CPU makes more sense with 60hz or 75hz monitor

north fable
#

hmm, I was thinking if I should replace my processor or RAM, cuz they are both, eeeeeh... bad

latent light
#

8GB ram is enough for R6S

Shouldn't be the issue

If you ever want to upgrade, you'll need a new CPU, motherboard and DDR4 RAM

Does the game have really weird netcode for some reason?

supple bane
#

@hard wing I had a 1060 3gb and upgraded to a 2070, and almost doubled my fps

so yes. its worth it

#

i think i got something like 80% more fps

#

although saying that. dont buy a 2070s just yet. wait for rtx 3000 series to launch. it should be just around the corner.

#

get a 3070 super instead

crude cradle
#

Is there anything I can to to reduce ping? Becuase I'm getting absurdly high ping, and that too only in Battlefield.

hard wing
#

Yeah but I don't have the cash for a potentially 600-700 dollar card

I have enough for the 2070S which is just at $500

Ish

@hard wing the 3070 super will be the same price

or at least it should be

hard wing
#

Ah

#

How much better would it be?

supple bane

that, i cant tell you. but i can tell you it WILL be better

hard wing
#

Because as far as I'm aware the 1080/1080ti is still a beast like four years later

supple bane
#

1080=2070

#

1080ti=2070 super

hard wing
#

Yeah so I can just get that

#

The 2070S

supple bane
#

the 3070 super will likely be about the same as a 2080 super

for the same price as the 2070 super
