#

You:Heeeey mum..... You know when i did the thing and you owe me 30
Mum:no?
You: uuuuh
😂

cloud solar Jul 30, 2021, 7:30 PM

#

also the M27Q is flat

#

i cant go back to flat

#

the monitor im looking for is to go with the series s for my brother lmao

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:31 PM

#

They have a curved version as well

wintry prairie Jul 30, 2021, 7:31 PM

#

The g27c4 is 1080p, right?

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:31 PM

#

M32Q i think

cloud solar Jul 30, 2021, 7:31 PM

#

plain stag They have a curved version as well

ah i see, maybe ill get it for my pc later on

cloud solar Jul 30, 2021, 7:31 PM

#

wintry prairie The g27c4 is 1080p, right?

yes

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:31 PM

#

I'm not sure about the model name, but i know I've seen a curved version as well

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:32 PM

#

I saw the 24” 1080p 144hz IPS monitor was selling at 149 AUD. Was tempted to get one

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:33 PM

#

You will find it on gigabyte's website

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:33 PM

#

Wait up

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:33 PM

#

mine is an acer xb241yu

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:33 PM

#

I think that’s gigabyte

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:33 PM

#

They also have a 1080p 144hz monitor as well

#

M27F

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:34 PM

#

27” 1440p is a step up from 24” 1080p

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:34 PM

#

But its an older panel from au optronics i think

#

So response times are a bit slower

#

Their new 1440p lineup uses newer panels from Sharp

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:35 PM

#

i run 24 in 1440 rn

#

but 27 in VA would be nice

#

or IPS

cloud solar Jul 30, 2021, 7:36 PM

#

am i the only person that likes 32 inch monitors

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:36 PM

#

At least TN on my monitor is way better than the TN display on my laptop

#

32 is nice as well

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:36 PM

#

Theres no point in getting a tn nowadays

cloud solar Jul 30, 2021, 7:36 PM

#

i like the bigger screen

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:36 PM

#

Ips advanced so much that tns are kinda useless

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:36 PM

#

my screen is from 2016

#

i would get IPS nowadays

#

or VA

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:37 PM

#

Hell, even va

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:37 PM

#

VA is slow but nice contrast

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:38 PM

#

Panels that samsung uses are generally faster than ips panels

#

But theres more ghosting as well

#

Theres literally no point in getting aorus monitor models

frail elm Jul 30, 2021, 7:39 PM

#

You know what monitor/TV your getting yet?

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:39 PM

#

They are barely any better than "budget" gigabyte options

#

And they cost like 300 more

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:40 PM

#

Personally I love IPS more than VA

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:40 PM

#

But they use exact same panels with same response times

cloud solar Jul 30, 2021, 7:40 PM

#

ive never seen va irl

#

only ips

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:40 PM

#

TN is just not worth to be mentioned if getting a new monitor

#

VA panels are widely used for TV

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:40 PM

#

I wish I picked a IPS laptop

#

instead of TN

#

on this 800 usd laptop

#

wish it had usb C and nvme as well

#

but oh well

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:41 PM

#

So it is possible and more likely that your TV has a VA panel

plain stag Jul 30, 2021, 7:41 PM

#

It was 800

#

Can't expect too much

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:41 PM

#

ye

#

decent price for a ryzen 3700U laptop

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:42 PM

#

Was tempted to get a gaming laptop

#

I realised I don’t like gaming on laptop often so I decided not to get one

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:42 PM

#

mine is just average laptopt

#

but i dont need more

#

i use my desktop for gaming

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:43 PM

#

Plus I got a MacBook Pro 15” early 2019 model

#

I just don’t need a new laptop. That’s all

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:43 PM

#

mine is from 2019 as well

#

changed ram but nothing else

#

cause 6 GB in windows 10 was annoying

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:44 PM

#

You got 8 initially?

#

Or 4+2

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:44 PM

#

8

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:44 PM

#

Oh

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:44 PM

#

vega 10 just takes 2 for itself

#

that it doesnt share with rest

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:45 PM

#

4gb on windows can’t do much already

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:45 PM

#

ye

#

luckily ive had more for long

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:45 PM

#

So you got 1.5-2GB available for other things

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:45 PM

#

my 2013 laptop had 12 GB

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:45 PM

#

Weird config

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:45 PM

#

8+4

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:45 PM

#

My 2012 laptop has 16

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:46 PM

#

meanwhile they still sell windows laptops with 4 gb ram

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:46 PM

#

I built a desktop in 2015, it still has 16

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:46 PM

#

which feels like they belong in 2009

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:46 PM

#

Terrible decision

dry pike Jul 30, 2021, 7:46 PM

#

I'm on an old laptop atm. Made sure it had 8GB memory though. Need my RAM.

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:46 PM

#

my vista laptop had 3 GB, and they still sell laptops with 4 GB....

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

However… they shipped those laptops with 1366x768 TN display and eMMC storage

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

feels like ram capacity has stagnated for PCs for so long

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

And a celeron or Pentium processors

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

my 2013 laptop had 1366x768 display, a 1200 usd laptop

frail elm Jul 30, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

We still going on about looking for a monitor

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

My 2012 one was a 1000AUD

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:47 PM

#

that had 4700HQ though

#

and a GT 750M

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:48 PM

#

So… it was 3210M with GT 630 on it

#

The 3210M and GT630 was a MID range option at that time

#

Both of them were mid range (closer to low end) coz they didn’t make that many higher tier options

#

Your GT750M is pretty good in 2013

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:49 PM

#

yeah

dry pike Jul 30, 2021, 7:49 PM

#

quick locust feels like ram capacity has stagnated for PCs for so long

Ram usage has also stagnated so that's probably why 🙂

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:49 PM

#

should have upgraded sooner though

#

kept using it as main until 2018

#

really didnt like bf1

#

its the ddr3 version

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:50 PM

#

My previous desktop has a Phenom 1045T processor

#

I bought that in 2011 for bf3

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:51 PM

#

I saw one in another server buy a 1090T desktop recently

#

for 300 usd

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:51 PM

#

and bought a laptop not long after

#

Those things are awesome tho. They are power hungry but it does the job just like a dual core processor does

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:52 PM

#

#

thats what he bought

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:52 PM

#

Till a few years ago tho

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:52 PM

#

newer CPUs are more power hungry anway

#

mostly

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:52 PM

#

It won’t be until you switch off turbo boost

#

I won’t let my laptop processor to run the clock speed higher than boost clock

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:53 PM

#

cooling was just mostly worse back then

#

my laptop cpu doesnt get that hot but its power limited a lot

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:54 PM

#

I don’t need a powerful laptop but I want a laptop that last for ages

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:54 PM

#

80-90C will still last ages

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:54 PM

#

Bought that way before ARM processor being used on laptop

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:54 PM

#

m1 macbook dropped in price here decently

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:54 PM

#

Yeah but I usually run that at 45-55c

#

Coz the newer one will be coming shortly

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:55 PM

#

1066 for macbook air here

#

usd

#

dropped quite a bit

#

launch it was around 1300 usd ish

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:55 PM

#

MacBook Air is ace for uni. I don’t see the point getting the 13” pro unless it needs better cooling and storage

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 7:58 PM

#

yea

#

i just use my laptop for uni

#

hence 3700U being just fine

#

opaque saddle Jul 30, 2021, 7:59 PM

hello, i have a ryzen 5 3600 and it gets to 86 degrees on max settings with stock cooler on gta 5, is this too much, and should i get a aftermarket cooler?

#

bear in mind that the temperature is 40 degrees celsius outside

#

so it contributes as well

cloud solar Jul 30, 2021, 8:28 PM

#

does it run cooler on cooler days?

#

if so, how much cooler

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:32 PM

#

i dont know

#

i just got the pc yesterday

#

it does drop immediately after closing the game though

short pier Jul 30, 2021, 8:33 PM

Ye invest in an aftermarket cooler

for example it runs at 80°C on high settings gta 5,but gets down to 62 after closing

#

by the way what is dram ras# pre and act time?

#

im trying to enable xmp on my bios and they shoved up at saving settings

The stock cooler for that isn't great

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

quick locust The stock cooler for that isn't great

hmm i dont know though

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

It's not too high temp

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

will test for a few games

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

Just meh compared to most coolers

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

okay then do you have a good cooler that is like 60 dollars at most

short pier Jul 30, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

Hyper 212 black edition

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:35 PM

#

but i also have to buy paste for that dont i

#

or does paste come with the fan

#

is it hard to install a fan?

#

i had the guy in the pc store build my pc for me so i dont know

quick locust Jul 30, 2021, 8:37 PM

#

No it's easy enough

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:38 PM

#

considering i almost messed up installing a gpu im not too confident in myself

#

but i mean my card was too big okay i didnt see the pci e Mkekhands

#

my card is very cool though

#

it gets to like 55°C at most

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:50 PM

#

atomic jackal it gets to like 55°C at most

That’s really good

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:51 PM

#

yeah

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:51 PM

#

Mine was like 62c when i first bought it

#

But now it’s 70

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:51 PM

#

im just confused man

#

is it the weather that makes my cpu hot

#

or is the cooler not enough

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:51 PM

#

atomic jackal is it the weather that makes my cpu hot

It does matter ya

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:52 PM

#

i mean

#

it is 42 degrees

#

celsius

#

so yeah

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:52 PM

#

Ok my cpu in winter was like 72c max

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:52 PM

#

107 f for muricans

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:52 PM

#

Now it reaches 80 or even 85

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:52 PM

#

arctic crag Ok my cpu in winter was like 72c max

mine gets to 86 on max

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:54 PM

#

Damn that’s hot

#

What game?

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:54 PM

#

gta 5

#

on max settings

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:54 PM

#

It’s fine I guess

#

But try to change the cooler

#

Later

#

Ryzen stock cooler sucks ass

#

It’s noisy and not efficient enough

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:55 PM

#

at least better than intel coolers

#

PepeChrist

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:56 PM

#

Whatever man

#

Intel coolers are junk

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:56 PM

#

yeah

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:56 PM

#

Being better than intel coolers doesn’t mean it’s good

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:56 PM

#

i know

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:57 PM

#

I would recommend cooler master hyper 212

#

It’s cheap

#

And 20c cooler than stock cooler

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:57 PM

#

is it hard to install

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:57 PM

#

It’s 40$

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:58 PM

#

atomic jackal is it hard to install

Nothing is hard

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:58 PM

#

yeah but is it hard to install? after nearly screwing a basic task such as mounting the gpu im not confident

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 8:59 PM

#

Go to local pc store and let the dude do his job

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 8:59 PM

#

lol yeah that is an option

#

ill try with other games

#

and if i still get high temps

#

i will buy the said coolwr

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 9:00 PM

#

Anyway you have AC right?

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 9:00 PM

not in my room, no

my room is currently 35°C

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 9:00 PM

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 9:16 PM

24k btu

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 9:18 PM

#

Yeah

#

Though humidity is crazy

#

I've had 85%+ in my room for some weeks

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 9:20 PM

#

Actually I searched the wrong model it’s 12k btu not 24k

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 9:22 PM

#

oh yeah

#

24k ac is extremely big

#

12 is like a medium size

#

man my chair broke

#

my neck hurts when playing now

#

by the way

#

it might be just gta 5 too

#

i booted up hoi4 which is known to use a lot of cpu

#

and my cpu is at a steady 70

#

68 now

#

i will try battlefield 1 after installation

#

if it also gives good results(i hope it will) id probably use the cooler for a while

arctic crag Jul 30, 2021, 9:26 PM

#

Good luck mate

atomic jackal Jul 30, 2021, 9:29 PM

#

yeah ill leave the pc on for download

opaque saddle Jul 31, 2021, 7:46 AM

#

If your room temp is constantly staying at the right temp with the windows and doors are sealed properly, running the AC 24/7 shouldn’t cost a fortune. Unless it is heating up and the room is losing the cold air. Then the aircon will need to generate more cold air to balance the temperature you have set from your remote, it will consume lots of power, just like opening your freezer door 24/7

toxic wigeon Jul 31, 2021, 9:20 AM

#

Winter is just free cooling

frail elm Jul 31, 2021, 9:22 AM

#

Lol

#

Did that guy ever choose a monitor or TV for his 8 yr old?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 12:32 PM

#

guys in bios

#

there is 2 fab controls

#

cha and cpu

#

is cha case fans?

#

and should i set it to full speed as well

#

also i set my case fans to turbo but i still dont feel air coming from them

#

are they turning in the wrong direction or not working properly

dry pike Jul 31, 2021, 12:51 PM

#

CHA is chassis and is indeed the case fans.

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 12:51 PM

#

i think i need a new cooler

dry pike Jul 31, 2021, 12:51 PM

#

Or at least they should be the case fans.

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 12:51 PM

#

my gpu is 58 degrees

#

but my cpu is 82

#

Think

#

stock fan is probably not enough is it

midnight crypt Jul 31, 2021, 12:56 PM

#

Check your thermal paste

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 1:09 PM

#

i didnt build it myself, i bought it on one of those custom prebuilt pc's

midnight crypt Jul 31, 2021, 1:14 PM

#

Do it anyways and check if the cooler is mounted correctly/with enough pressure

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 1:19 PM

#

im afraid ill mess something up

#

since i barely got the card in place

#

jesus fucking christ

#

92 degrees on battlefield 1

#

yup

#

definitely have to buy an aftermarket cooler

quick locust Jul 31, 2021, 1:28 PM

#

It doesn't damage it

#

It just sucks

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 2:21 PM

#

It can reduce its lifespan

#

But chances of your cpu dying is very slim to begin with

#

But yeah, quite possible that they didn't mount the cooler properly

#

If its an amd stock cooler, its actually somewhat decent if you don't overclock and have a lower powered cpu

#

Intel stock cooler is just trash

#

So if it's an Intel, then I'm not surprised of those temps

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 2:49 PM

#

by the way

#

my cpu gets to 93 on full speed

#

is my cpu faulty?

#

its brand new

#

it shouldn't be heating this much

#

im really skeptical about this

midnight crypt Jul 31, 2021, 2:51 PM

#

Its the cpu cooler

#

Cant be anything else

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 2:52 PM

#

maybe the paste dried out?

midnight crypt Jul 31, 2021, 2:53 PM

#

How old is the system?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 3:12 PM

#

2 days old @midnight crypt

arctic crag Jul 31, 2021, 4:01 PM

#

In my opinion just wait a week or so and if it’s still high get an aftermarket cooler

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:02 PM

#

still waiting for gpus to cost less than a car where i live

arctic crag Jul 31, 2021, 4:03 PM

#

When I first got mine temps were high after a week of use temps became cooler

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:03 PM

#

atomic jackal my cpu gets to 93 on full speed

we need to consider the ambient temperature, how the wires and everything is built in the computer, and what case you got

arctic crag Jul 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

I think he said like 35

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

fallen harbor we need to consider the ambient temperature, how the wires and everything is bui...

also i did a cinebench

#

it got to 95

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

35c is a lot

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

and cpu started undervolting

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

fallen harbor 35c is a lot

its actually 40

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

then thats normal my man

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:04 PM

#

let me send you the stress test

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:05 PM

#

if its 35 or 40c in your room then its expected for the cpu to reach unhealthy temperatures on full usage

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:05 PM

#

uh

#

can you add me real quick

#

i cant send it

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:05 PM

#

yes

#

is it 40c in your room? or do you have air conditioner?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:08 PM

#

no

#

its 35

#

and i dont have an ac

#

its ambient teml

#

but i run all the fans at full

#

it shouldn't be getting to 95

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:09 PM

#

it should tbh, unless you have water cooling or some bigger dissipator

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:09 PM

#

im starting to think that the place i bought it from didnt remove the plastic

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:09 PM

#

35c is a lot, computer parts will normally reach insane temps during summer if you have no AC or high end coolers

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:09 PM

#

should i send it to warranty

#

or just change the fan

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:10 PM

#

if you want to make sure they removed the plastic without losing the warranty, then yes, do it

#

send it back

#

but odds are it's just your room temperature tbh

#

what cpu and what gpu did you get?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:10 PM

#

and you have to move the fan carefully since it sticks to the fan

#

the funny part is

#

my gpu never gets above 55

#

its asus tuf gaming 3060 by the way, the gpu

#

ryzen 5 3600 is the cpu

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

hm

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

if it was the room

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

idk what to say, did you try a very demanding game?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

surely the gpu would be hotter tol

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

fallen harbor idk what to say, did you try a very demanding game?

battlefield 1 yeah

#

but again

#

gpu was barely 56

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:12 PM

#

ok thats weird then

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:12 PM

#

it wasnt hot at all

#

all this points out to a problem in the cpu

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:12 PM

#

was the cpu hot during the game? or ony du

#

or only during the tests*

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:12 PM

#

under load yes

#

on idle its 55-60

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:13 PM

#

and you got the stock default cooler right?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:13 PM

#

yes

#

im running it on full speed

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:13 PM

#

55-60 again seem normal to me on idle during summer with no ac

#

and ryzen warms more than nvidia in general

#

also has more tolerance to high temps than nvidia

#

really to me this isnt all too weird

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:14 PM

#

but doesnt r5 3600 shut down at 95?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:14 PM

#

i wouldnt think so

#

id say it does at 100 or 110

#

we can google this

#

give me a second

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:14 PM

#

i mean

#

it did start to throttle

#

it lowered the ghz

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:14 PM

#

once you get to 81 it starts to decrease ghz

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:15 PM

#

yes

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:15 PM

#

but theres a difference between that and total shut down

#

google says 95 is the absolute maximum, but im not seeing it mention it will shut down, it says that the computer will do anything to not surpass 95

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:16 PM

#

yeah it capped at 95 in my video too

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:16 PM

#

it says it will shut down if it keeps at 95 during several minutes

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

i should try several minutes next time

#

i only left it for 30 seconds

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

games wont normally make your cpu go 100% anyway, that only happens during loading times as you said. I assume your gpu reached probably between 75 and 85 during bf1?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

nope

#

58

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

atomic jackal i should try several minutes next time

try to not do this anymore, it's bad for the cpu

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

atomic jackal 58

the cpu?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

93

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:17 PM

#

93 during the game?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:18 PM

#

the loading screen after matchmaking

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:18 PM

#

im refering to the actual game time

#

when you play around

#

whats the cpu temp there

#

in average

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:18 PM

#

game time?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:18 PM

#

when you are running around and shooting people

#

playing the game

#

what are the temps there

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:18 PM

#

oh i just panicked and closed the game when it hit 93

#

haha

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:19 PM

#

you closed it during the load times you mean?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:19 PM

#

yeah

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:19 PM

#

it should go down after loading the match

#

probably 85 i guess, or 80

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:19 PM

#

it went down to 55 immediately after shutting down the game

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:19 PM

#

try to join a game and dont close it

#

it wont be worse than the benchmark tests that you did

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:19 PM

#

ok i will try

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:20 PM

#

if theres any place where you should panic is during benchmark tests

#

those exhaust your computer to the limit

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:20 PM

#

im amazed at how my gpu is cool at all times yet dissapointed in my cpu

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:21 PM

#

i would avoid the tests for now and just see how it goes during gaming

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:21 PM

#

okay

#

ill send another video

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:22 PM

#

by the way you will probably need to update your bios drivers if you get a lot of temps or full usage of your cpu when playing most games. My cousin got the same cpu and got super high temps when playing any game because the motherboard failed to calculate the proper usage needed so it always went up to 4,20ghz during any task

#

until we downloaded a newer bios driver and then it started to regulate the ghz correctly

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:22 PM

#

alright

#

i only downloaded gpu driver

#

others windows did

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:23 PM

#

youll need to apply the bios driver manually, by downloading it from your motherboard's site, putting it inside a pendrive, restarting the pc and entering the bios

visual stump Jul 31, 2021, 4:23 PM

#

Hey if someone could help me battlefield one wont open for me

#

it says vc runtime

#

dll

#

whatever that means

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:23 PM

#

fallen harbor youll need to apply the bios driver manually, by downloading it from your mother...

its around 56-62 now on idle

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:23 PM

#

google for vcruntime.dll

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:24 PM

#

atomic jackal its around 56-62 now on idle

considering its 35c around your pc, thats expected

#

try to make sure it doesnt go much beyond 80 when playing a game

#

you will notice a great decrease of temperatures when you are in winter

#

your cpu will probably be around 30 on idle

#

and 70 max in games

#

depends on where you live ofc

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:27 PM

#

hmm

#

i just loaded the game up

#

it got to 87

#

but now it is 83

#

in game

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:27 PM

#

ah

#

wait a sec

#

i got what could be a solution for you in these times

#

give me a second

#

dont close the game

visual stump Jul 31, 2021, 4:28 PM

#

should i just use something like restoro and clean my pc

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:28 PM

#

have you got a 144hz monitor?

#

@atomic jackal

visual stump Jul 31, 2021, 4:28 PM

#

cause its only for me

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:29 PM

#

fallen harbor have you got a 144hz monitor?

mine is 165hz yes

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:29 PM

#

at what frame rate is your game running?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:29 PM

#

no clue

#

where do i check it

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:29 PM

#

do you know how to open the command console

#

in the game?

#

should be the key at the left of 1

#

i think

#

youll get a type box up

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:30 PM

#

ok what do i type there

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:30 PM

#

PerfOverlay.DrawFps 1

#

it will show you the frame rate

#

at your top right corner

#

i think

#

or top left

#

cant remember

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:31 PM

#

it is currently 120 fps

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:31 PM

#

ok so its configured to run at 120 in the graphic settings then

#

i thought youd be getting like 200 and was gonna tell you to limit them to your monitor's refresh rate

#

but this isnt the case then

#

unless you dont mind limiting your frame rate to 60

#

that should decrease the temperatures

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:32 PM

#

meaning use 60hz?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:32 PM

#

in the video settings yes

#

if it doesnt bother you

#

that is

#

maybe it will

#

only you can tell

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:32 PM

#

um its already 60

#

since its windowed

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:32 PM

#

you play windowed?

#

or is it like that just now so you can chat

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:33 PM

#

fallen harbor you play windowed?

i do it to check the temps

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:33 PM

#

you can use msi afterburner if you want to check temps ingame

#

it shows the temp stats and usages in game

#

its pretty cool

#

but anyway

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:33 PM

#

oh how do i do that

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:33 PM

#

put the game on full screen and then change the hz to 60

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:34 PM

#

atomic jackal oh how do i do that

https://download.msi.com/uti_exe/vga/MSIAfterburnerSetup.zip?__token__=exp=1627881237~acl=/*~hmac=6b590ff34d8ce8b3a174e2bbbeadf22d46a91b1d38f8ee9674bcb0229f6b5cfd

#

id tell to lower either your frame rate or resolution or graphic settings if you want to get lower temperatures in games during summer, but that will probably suck if you got a high end computer and monitor

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:35 PM

#

is it the rivatuner thing

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:35 PM

#

yes it's two ssoftwares in one

#

rivatuner displays the info in the game

#

and with msi you tell rivatuner what info to display

#

in settings > monitoring

#

you will have temps for every CPU core, choose the one that just says CPU temp, not CPU (number) temp

#

then gpu temp

#

then ram/memory usage if youwant

#

and cpu usage too if you want

#

but then again

#

you said you got 83 during the game, it is warm, but considering it's 35c, it's not thatbad

#

your pc wont die for playing a couple of hours a day at 83c during summer

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:37 PM

#

it gets to 87 sometimes

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:38 PM

#

then if i was you id lower the frame rate

#

or the resolution if you are any above 1080p

#

make sure your resolution scale in the video settings isn't any higher than 100%

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:39 PM

#

man fuck this shit

#

if i cant play with highest

#

why did i buy this expensive pc in the first place

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:39 PM

#

35c in a room is just too high

#

its not just pcs

#

this is a problem that consoles have too

#

consider getting an ac

#

or a better dedicated cpu cooler

#

that isnt the one that comes by default

#

ever heard of consoles dying after a couple of years?

#

many die due to high temps

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:40 PM

#

sent you a pic

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:40 PM

#

computers are actually more resistant to this than consoles

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:40 PM

#

where do i enable it

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:42 PM

#

you can also download ryzen master to like, limit your ghz to 4,00, that will work too

#

youll get lower fps but still plenty above 60

#

wait you do have rizen master right?

#

i think its in your screenshoot

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 4:44 PM

#

fallen harbor you can also download ryzen master to like, limit your ghz to 4,00, that will wo...

i already use ryzen master to monitor temperature

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:44 PM

#

limit the ghz usage to 4000mhz/4ghz

#

that might make it not surpass 80 during game

#

and you might not notice the difference either

#

in gaming performance i mean

#

if the place where you live is this hot very often, you will have to get either an AC or a better dedicated cpu cooler

magic monolith Jul 31, 2021, 4:45 PM

Hello guys. My PSU fan just died and I am looking for a replacement. Should I look for the same wattage or should I look for something with more headroom if I want to do some upgrades?

Beware that the system is already 8 years old, upgrades like more RAM or SSD are likely to happen 😛

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:46 PM

#

if your pc is 10 years old it means you wont be able to do big upgrades like cpu or gpu, so the wattage wont matter a lot, just get the minimum that you can get nowadays

#

the minimum but certified, like, not any shitty crappy psu

#

id probably get a 500w evga or corsair psu, white rating, doesnt need to be gold or anything

magic monolith Jul 31, 2021, 4:47 PM

#

No need to look for 80 plus bronze?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:48 PM

#

80 plus yes

#

bronze not necessarily

#

what are your specs?

#

do you have a high consuming part?

magic monolith Jul 31, 2021, 4:50 PM

#

Nope😂😂

Intel I5-4430
Nvidia GeForce 210
Toshiba 1TB HDD
2x2 GB G. Skill RAM

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:50 PM

#

ok then just get a 500w 80 plus psu, evga or corsair will do, those are decent brands

#

if you plan on throwing that old computer and buy a new one and use your new psu for thatnew one, then get something higher

#

but if not, 500 or 450w will do

#

ssd's consume less than hdds

#

so dont worry about that

magic monolith Jul 31, 2021, 4:52 PM

#

I was looking to buy a Samsung 860 SSD to improve performance. My parents use the computer mostly for browsing, so no need to go ahead with heavy upgrades

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:52 PM

#

yeah i5 4430 with an ssd is super good for office or home usage

#

make sure to give it more ram though

#

at least 8

#

ive read somewhere that using an ssd with low ram can limit the ssd's lifespan significantly

magic monolith Jul 31, 2021, 4:53 PM

#

Yeah, that was in the pipeline as well, but then the PSU crapped out

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:53 PM

#

not sure how true that is though

#

if its windows 7, you can get rid of one module and put a 4gb module to reach 6gb. If it got windows 8 or 10 you will need to put 8gb on it tbh

magic monolith Jul 31, 2021, 4:54 PM

#

Windows 7 ultimate

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:54 PM

#

6 will probably do then

#

go for 8 if you have the money though

magic monolith Jul 31, 2021, 4:55 PM

#

Do different capacity modules hamper the performance?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:55 PM

#

with office or home work, no

magic monolith Jul 31, 2021, 4:56 PM

#

Money is not the problem. DDR3 RAM is relatively cheap is my country

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:56 PM

#

okie

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 4:56 PM

#

so like i have the following components

Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
Monitor: Samsung Odyssey G7
Max mode: 2560 x 1440(p) (240.000Hz)
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.9GHz

Are these good gaming specs?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:56 PM

#

what is good enough for you?

#

depends

#

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:57 PM

yes

its good for bf4

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 4:57 PM

#

crysis 3 on ultra maybe 30fps

#

better than nothing though

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:57 PM

the 1060 6gb is very good for mid tier gaming nowadays too

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 4:58 PM

#

so i was thinking of upgrading for 2042 which one would be best suited?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:58 PM

#

its a well balanced pc, its old but relatively strong for its time, its kinda like getting an entry level gaming pc nowadays, you can play everything, just not 60fps on all games

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 4:58 PM

especially the graphics card

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 4:58 PM

no

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:04 PM

get the one with the f on it, it means it doesnt have integrated graphics so its cheaper, and you dont need integrated graphics cause you got that 1060

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:04 PM

lusty hare so basically cores are like hubs and threads are like the road between the hubs ...

no

no pro bro

toxic zealot Jul 31, 2021, 5:06 PM

#

looks like 100% faster

#

when its not gpu bottlenecked

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:06 PM

#

also, another reason why i recommend upgrading cpu rather than gpu, is because gpus are ridiculously expensive nowadays. You could get a high improvement by upgrading your cpu instead

#

youd bottleneck hard if you got a new gpu but no new cpu

toxic zealot Jul 31, 2021, 5:06 PM

#

depends

#

its not super hard to achieve 60fps

#

if thats someone goal

prime jasper Jul 31, 2021, 5:07 PM

#

I have a Core i5-10400F, good performance

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:07 PM

#

at 1:39 i can literally see the difference on the gun the i5 10400 gives dirt marks and the 3770 is squeaky clean

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:07 PM

#

also the 10400f is on a sweet spot of price-performance

#

as you can see the 3770 is still decent though

#

i dont think youre in a huge need to upgrade

#

but if you have the money and want to

#

the 10400f is in a good spot

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:09 PM

#

ya i definately should upgrade once the system requirements come out

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:09 PM

#

official system reqs are usually bs

#

tbh ngl

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:10 PM

#

yup the official once are most reliable

#

but one can guess if enough data about the game is given

toxic zealot Jul 31, 2021, 5:10 PM

#

there is 0 data

#

the only way to check is to benchmark

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:11 PM

#

toxic zealot there is 0 data

what we know is that tons of storage and bigger maps than last time double the players and judgine from the trailer the map be 1km square. bigger than before expet el alamaine. so we need to up most likely

toxic zealot Jul 31, 2021, 5:12 PM

#

that doesnt tell you anything

#

because you dont know whats the optimization

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 5:12 PM

#

fallen harbor limit the ghz usage to 4000mhz/4ghz

He doesn't need to limit it, he just needs to get a better cooler, and it's also very likely that the mount is bad

toxic zealot Jul 31, 2021, 5:12 PM

#

it can be as far as modern bf4 demanding

#

to cyberpunk catastrophe because someone rushed the game

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:15 PM

#

i trust it will be decently optimized because afaik all battlefields since bc2 were, but stillt heres no way for me to tell, its just a gut feeling

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:17 PM

#

i think i might have to upgrade the one or two components soon according to the features.

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:17 PM

all we know is that frostbite engines (the one used for battlefield since bad company i think) are relatively cpu demanding, and a bit better optimized for amd gpus than for gpu gpus

1060 6gb is still good unless you want to go for 4k or 120hz

i already can do that on my monitor 🙂

#

in fact i can do 4K and 240 Hz

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:18 PM

#

youre not understanding what i mean

#

you cant get 4k and/or 240fps on battlefield v with your pc

weak girder Jul 31, 2021, 5:19 PM

#

maybe minecraft lmao

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:19 PM

#

maybe a blank white screen rofl

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:20 PM

#

I can only estimate that with a 3770 and 1060, bf2042 will run at like almost 60fps on any settings, from low to high, because of a bottleneck, maybe like 55 or 65fps

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:21 PM

#

hmm so to get 100 fps ill have to upgrade

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:21 PM

#

and that with a 10400f youll rather get like 55 on ultra, 70 on medium and 90 on low

#

probably 80 on medium

#

its just a wild estimate

#

dont trust my word so much

#

its only my guess after seeing how all battlefield games perform

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:21 PM

#

ya until the offical comes out we just guess

#

what happens if i slap together a 3070 gpu and a 10400f?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:23 PM

#

if what i said above is true, i assume youll reach 120fps easily that way

#

but what do i know

silent oasisBOT Jul 31, 2021, 5:23 PM

#

Currently there are no official PC specifications released by DICE for Battlefield 2042.
Any specs floating around the internet are just assumptions or rumors.

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:23 PM

#

again, go to youtube and type 10400f + rtx3070 benchmark

#

it will give you an idea

#

just dont upgrade before the game comes out

#

itd be foolish

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:24 PM

#

ill wait till the system requirements i guess

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:25 PM

#

I dont think the 3770 will reach 60fps easily on a new bf game with 128 players, BUT what i say doesnt matter a lot, maybe its super well and godly optimized

#

or maybe not

#

id say not

#

but i know nothing

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:25 PM

#

lusty hare ill wait till the system requirements i guess

not even, better wait for benchmark videos on the game

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:25 PM

#

yup

#

btw what's the difference between rtx and gtx

real kernel Jul 31, 2021, 5:29 PM

#

rtx has ray tracing tech

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:29 PM

#

nvidia cards with "rtx" in their names mean they have a technology that has been recently added to games in real time rendering, called ray tracing

real kernel Jul 31, 2021, 5:29 PM

#

its a different way of rendering light

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:30 PM

#

games often look prettier with ray tracing, there are more reflections, but it consumes a lot of gpu power

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:30 PM

#

so the gtx is replaced by rtx? i cant find a gtx 3080 but i can find a rtx 3080

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:30 PM

#

theres no gtx anymore

real kernel Jul 31, 2021, 5:30 PM

#

yeah

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:30 PM

#

the most powerful gtx is the gtx1660ti

real kernel Jul 31, 2021, 5:31 PM

#

gtx 16's is last

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:31 PM

#

after 1660 its rtx?

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:31 PM

ever since the 2000 series its all rtx

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:31 PM

#

hmm

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:32 PM

#

i really think bf2042 will have to be poorly optimized for a 1060 6gb to not reach 60fps on it

#

on 1080p that is

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 5:32 PM

And medium settings

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:32 PM

Eventually

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:33 PM

the latest is 3060 i think

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

But specs of it are all rumors

#

3050ti for laptops

real kernel Jul 31, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

3090 exists

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:33 PM

#

3070 3080 and 3090 came first, then 3060

#

and 3050 now i think?

pretty sure 3060 already was there

#

at launch

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 5:33 PM

fallen harbor Jul 31, 2021, 5:33 PM

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 5:35 PM

and yes

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 5:35 PM

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 5:38 PM

Well 6600xt competes against a 3060ti

lusty hare Jul 31, 2021, 5:38 PM

#

cos it will run 2042 at ease and the next battlefield games for 15 years

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 5:38 PM

But its more expensive as well

#

It's about 15% more expensive and about 15% more powerful

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 7:48 PM

#

atomic jackal why is my cpu 75 degrees when its only using %35?

Its because the cooler is most likely not applied properly

#

It doesnt have a good mount

#

Its a very common thing when it comes to prebuilt pc's

#

But still, 70 degrees is well within operating range

#

It's just annoying that its that high

#

Since its a ryzen, max temps are 105c

#

But should you ever reach that kind of temp, the cpu will downclock itself to not reach 105

#

If that fails, then it will shut itself down to preserve itself

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 8:00 PM

#

i know

#

i will get my pc to a computer shop to see whats up

#

its either

#

1)old thermal paste

#

2)improperly seated cooler

#

or cpu is just faulty

#

like look at this dude

#

800 mhz

#

%10 use

#

60 degrees

#

that shit aint normal

#

worst case scenario

#

ill refund

#

i have a 14 day conditionless refund

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 8:14 PM

#

Your pc fine

#

Your cpu isnt faulty

#

It's operating well within spec

#

You don't have to refund anything

#

It's just a low end cooler that's not even mounted properly

#

And its not thermal paste age either, your pc is new and it was prob built in the last couple of months

#

And task manager isnt showing you real cpu speed

#

When your pc is barely doing anything it reduces clock speed to save power

#

You can see your real usage in ryzen master

#

And how much current you're drawing

#

Plus, it's very hot in your room

#

And it matters where your case is too

chrome skiff Jul 31, 2021, 8:17 PM

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 8:18 PM

#

plain stag And task manager isnt showing you real cpu speed

i use ryzen master utility

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 8:18 PM

#

35-40

#

But i have an AIO

#

Yes, but look at the cpu itself

#

When you're gaming

#

You're getting advertised speeds

#

Within operating temperature range

#

So you can immediately rule out that its faulty

#

The temps are high, but still well within specs

#

Your high temp issue will be fixed with a proper air cooler and a good mount, and that's it

#

I've seen your case, the front is mesh so you have enough airflow if you even have fans on the front

#

A poor mount is like the most common problem with prebuilt pc's

#

And cables not being plugged in

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 8:26 PM

#

Built one just recently

#

After a couple of years

#

I could build them every day

just wish i was linus

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 8:27 PM

Xd

#

So many parts

quasi dawn Jul 31, 2021, 8:27 PM

#

right

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 8:37 PM

#

by the way

#

my gpu also has low usage

#

why is this

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 8:45 PM

#

when youre not doing anything, you wont have high usage

#

if youre playing a demanding game and you still have low usage, then it means your cpu is a bottleneck

#

but considering that you have a ryzen, i dont know which one, but im guessing in the 5000 series, you wont encounter too many bottlenecks

#

also if you look at the usage through task manager, it doesnt always show its being utilized

howw
i idle at 45-50 with my 5600x

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:18 PM

plain stag when youre not doing anything, you wont have high usage

bro wtf bios says it is 70 degrees

#

on idle

#

this pc sounds like big trouble

opaque saddle Jul 31, 2021, 9:20 PM

#

See if your cpu fan is working fine and not dusty? Or whether the cpu cooler is attached to the processor tightly?

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:41 PM

#

prime jasper howw i idle at 45-50 with my 5600x

40 degrees idle atm, cuz i have an arctic liquid freezer II 360 rad

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:42 PM

#

atomic jackal bro wtf bios says it is 70 degrees

as mentioned before, youre on stock amd cooler with a bad mount

#

its not big trouble

#

you literally just need a better cooler

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:42 PM

#

i will try a new one

#

but if it also doesnt help

#

ill refund

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:42 PM

#

well, you wont be able to refund

#

cuz you changed the cooler

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:43 PM

#

hmm

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:43 PM

#

i mean, it depends of your refund laws and shit

#

but your cpu is literally working properly

#

you dont need to refund, the cpu isnt defective

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:44 PM

#

They have 14 day conditionless refund but i can email them if they will accept the refund if i changed the fan

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:44 PM

#

prime jasper howw i idle at 45-50 with my 5600x

also, i dont go past 50c when gaming, altho i cant play demanding games, dont have a proper gpu atm

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:44 PM

#

they probably won't

#

but this pc seems too much trouble

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:44 PM

#

but how is it too much trouble

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

it gave me way too much anxiety, way too much stress on the past few days

prime jasper Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

nice

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

you literally have the most common and easiest problems that can be fixed

prime jasper Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

i get just over 70c with my 240mm aio

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

plain stag you literally have the most common and easiest problems that can be fixed

its not really known yet

near rune Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

50c is normal idle temp

#

for most pcs

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

the other option you can do is you can return them the pc

#

and tell them that you want a new cooler

near rune Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

like doing idle tasks

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

and let them put it on

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:45 PM

#

they dont do that i think

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:46 PM

#

that way you arent doing anything between them, so then your warranty will stay

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:46 PM

#

atomic jackal its not really known yet

it is known, because 1, your cpu is running well within its thermal spec, 2, the cpu frequency is running within its spec

#

hence, the cpu is completely fine and not defective in any way, shape or form

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

plain stag it is known, because 1, your cpu is running well within its thermal spec, 2, the...

my cpu frequency doesn't run within its spec

#

it runs at 800mhz and still 60 degrees

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

whats your cpu

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

amd r5 3600

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

its running 800mhz

#

when

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

idle

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:47 PM

#

when youre not doing anything?

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:48 PM

#

1000-800 idle

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:48 PM

#

ill tell you my idle speed now

#

oh would you look at that

#

800mhz

#

why?

#

because i have google chrome open only

#

and im not doing anything in the background

#

im even bellow now

#

400mhz

#

when im not typing its almost as low as 300mhz

#

turn on cinebench, or any other cpu benchmark tool

#

it will run within 3.6-4.2ghz

#

i.e. within spec

#

imagine if cpus were running at full speed at all times when youre not doing anything, sucking 100w for nothing

#

why would the cpu use 100w when it doesnt need to

#

cpu power usage for me now is 12W

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:52 PM

#

is my gpu not using %100 for the same reason?

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:52 PM

#

that depends of the game

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:52 PM

#

it barely reaches %50

#

in battlefield one

#

the most ive seen was %50

#

shouldn't it be using %100

prime jasper Jul 31, 2021, 9:53 PM

#

its bottlenecking from your cpu

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:53 PM

#

i didnt have 100% usage either in bf1

#

but my cpu was the bottleneck

#

and i dont know which tool youre using

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:54 PM

#

tool?

#

i used afterburner to check

#

my cpu was at %15 and my gpu was at %50-40

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:55 PM

#

okay

#

temp?

#

settings

#

im running cinebench R20 right now, and im at 4.6ghz on all 6 cores right now

#

using 71W of power

atomic jackal Jul 31, 2021, 9:58 PM

#

temp is 55 on gpu

#

83-79 on cpu

#

but

#

with %30 usage

#

not under load

#

for the cpu

plain stag Jul 31, 2021, 9:58 PM

#

and my temp is 67c

#

What about game settings

#

Which gpu you have
