#

even more than the number of cores actually, its why the 3300x was actually better in gaming than the 3600 (and the fact it was a Zen 3 beta lol)

toxic zealot
#

idk

#

i have seen some games stutter

#

inconsistent frames

#

at 4 cores

#

not all of them ofc

storm osprey
#

6c12t is the sweet spot

#

but if we consider that 4c8t had some 5 years as the sweet spot and are maybe 2/3 years into 6c12t being the sweet spot, we might see an increase in a few years

#

or we dont, you never know with these things

#

personally, i went with 10700k for 1440p because it barely loses out on performance and has 8c16t, and i got it on sale for cheaper than a 5600x

opaque saddle
#

i preferred 6c12t for budget gaming which is enough for gaming. 8c16t allows the OS to run and separate the tasks to the other cores

latent light
#

For Intel 12th gen Alder-Lake, using DDR4 instead of DDR5 hardly affects single-core performance, it impacts multi-core the most

#

Using DDR4-3200 instead of DDR5-4800 causes a single-core decrease by up to 5%, while multi-cores loses up to 20% performance

arctic crag
#

What's the point?

quick locust
#

Carbonic how about this

inland goblet

quick locust
#

There's lots of increase of 6 core

#

Like 10400F which is in a ton of prebuilts

#

Also big increase in steam survey for long time

#

Console games use 7 cores 7 threads mostly so it's a weird in between

#

And a few 7 core 14 thread

# quick locust We already do

idk if you followed, but i was saying we are already in the midst of 6c12t, so maybe 8c16t will be the standard soon

fallen harbor
#

id rather get a powerful 6c today and a powerful 8c in like 6 years instead of a today's 8c that will be a bit weak in the future

tbh

not sure what that has to do with my statement...

quick locust
#

Small case big gpu

#

But it's not mine

prime jasper
#

should i get uh

#

144hz 3440x1440p ultrawide OR 240hz 1920x1080p gaming monitor

midnight crypt
#

if you care about fps more go for the 240hz one

storm osprey
#

depends what you want

midnight crypt
#

although id say 144hz is plenty

storm osprey
#

personally i wouldnt go 240hz+ unless youre a really highly rated player thats super serious

wintry prairie
#

So my 360hz too much for you 😋

fallen harbor
prime jasper
#

No productivity works

storm osprey
#

if your a csgo chad then yea 240

prime jasper
#

Kk

#

Tyty

storm osprey
#

personally i wouldnt but meh

supple bane
#

the difference between 144hz and 240hz is small tho fyi.

prime jasper
#

Really

storm osprey
#

imo it comes down to size of monitor you want

prime jasper
#

27inch 1080p

supple bane
#

60hz has a frame time of 17ms. 144hz has a frame time of 7ms and 240hz is 4ms

#

so its a small jump

#

just 3ms.

prime jasper
#

Ya but i saw lots of yt videos of pro players saying 240hz is a lot better than 144hz but i still cant decide 😩

supple bane
#

360hs is 3ms. which is even more of a rip off for the price

#

yeah for pro players

#

people who depend on every ms to earn money

#

i bet money they wouldnt be able to "feel" the difference between the monitors though. but there is certainly a competitive advantage, but for me its so small its not worth it.

prime jasper
#

Kk

opaque saddle
#

If your pc can run 240hz then it is fine. But I picked 144hz 1440p ultrawide coz my 2070S is too slow for the monitor already

prime jasper
#

I only play cs

#

So i can def run it

supple bane
#

its like f1 drivers put tape over panel gaps to make the car more aerodynamic. they rely on that to earn money, you dont go out gaff taping your car to save a few cents at the gas station, right?

#

thats how i see it

#

How do i fix this shit guys? I have armory crate and dragon center installed and my asus aura stuff are messed up, rgb is glitching on memory and the fans' gradient transition is laggy af

#

Armory crate controls the mb , ram and fans
Msi dragon center controls the gpu

prime jasper
#

Armoury crate is dumb

#

Get a case with no glass like me 😩

anything below 60fps just looks weird

but to me 80fps and 144fps look the same

#

Yeah pixels too visible at 27" 1080p

opaque saddle
#

27” 1440p is close to where pixels can’t be identified in a normal distance

To where people is usually sitting

toxic zealot

24inch 1080p is ook

#

but not good

So uh

#

1080p 240hz 27" isnt good?

For checking Battlefield 1, that it can run or not,(I used a website CAN YOU RUN IT ), I found out that every thing is fine in my laptop, but only my graphics card was less (MX 150 2GB), but at the same time it said the game needs Pixel shader 5.0 (I have 5.1), also vertex shader 5.0 (I have 5.1) and dedicated video ram 2GB (I have 2 GB)
so can it run in my pc ?

weak girder
#

expect 720p low settings or 900p low

compact pewter
#

dont worry i had the same graphic card

#

but you need 8gb of ram or more

and it also can run bf5

but you need over 12 gb of ram

EA desktop is on beta so it’s buggy sometimes ,How about installing it on origin

@quick locust any reason why i dont see people bench ram over 4000mhz

Makes most sense on Intel probably and at some point lower timings is more important. Also, just because memory is rated for 4800mhz that doesn't mean you will be able to get it there.

Hi, lately my PS4 has been playing up a lot. It's a first gen model that I got preowned in 2017 when my old PS3 broke, but I don't know actually how old the PS4 is. In the past 3 weeks, it has been freezing when I exit apps, and takes a long time to load in the PS Store, sometimes not at all. 2 days ago, I went into the PS Store, it wasn't working, so I exited to the main menu, and all I saw was my wallpaper, nothing else. I pressed a few buttons, nothing. So when I tried to turn it off using the button on the PS4, it wouldn't! So I had to disconnect the power cord to turn it off. But no more than 10 minutes ago, I was playing AZ Sunshine when my gun started flying everywhere! The PS Camera was facing right at me too... What do I do? Can I fix it, or has the PS4 reached the end of its life? If you see this message in any other servers, it's because I am really worried

maybe do a full reset of your ps4

but otherwise im sry to say this but yeah its done for

afaik those games favor intel though

supple bane

i just picked the first video 🤷‍♂️

storm osprey

and both are OC

which intel OC better, but its a huuuuuuge burden on tdp and thermals

supple bane
#

thats such a shit graph.

#

it doesnt say which its comparing to what

storm osprey
#

this is what i would expect at stock, which imo isnt worth the price increase for 5800x

supple bane
#

28% faster?

#

ok?

#

what is 28% faster? >:(

storm osprey
#

the 5800x is 28% faster than 11700k

proud trellis
#

basically right...im in this discord and someone is getting a new pc and i asked what the specs were in it and he said "rtx 3070 ti tuf i7 11700k 2x8 ram" but he streams but he has another pc already and he wants to use the 2 of them for streaming

#

so is there really any need for an i7 if he has 2 pcs for streaming

storm osprey
#

i assume not? cant you use your other pc to be your stream machine?

proud trellis
#

yeah so he wants his current pc to be the one that is the stream machine and then his new pc the one he plays his games on

storm osprey
#

i really dont know much for streaming

supple bane
#

what are the specs of the old machine ?

proud trellis
#

all i know is he has a 9400f cpu

#

lemme see what gpu he has

supple bane
#

id tell him to sell the old machine and spend more on a new pc

#

using 2 pc's to stream is old news.

#

its not needed any more.

#

and getting a faster pc would give a better play and stream experience than what a 9400f could provide

proud trellis
#

he is from denmark and the new pc said is 2.7k USD

#

for the rtx 3070 ti tuf i7 11700k 2x8 ram

#

okay so rn in his pc he has a i5-9400f , 2060 super and 16gb ram

supple bane
#

sell it..

#

spend the money on a more powerful rig.

#

itll be so much better

proud trellis
#

he doesnt know what to sell it for lol

supple bane
#

just go on ebay and find things that are similar specs

#

and see what they go for

proud trellis
#

the pc he wants is a prebuilt aswell

supple bane
#

i figured

proud trellis

but 2.7k seems expensive for the specs or is that just me ?

why exactly do you despise amd TrashPandaSniff

proud trellis

i would prefer to have AMD instead of intel

if i could

storm osprey

id say amd is objectively better for cpus, maybe not with price to performance though

arctic crag
#

It’s funny how intel is now the budget option

proud trellis
#

are they ?

#

i thought they was the opposite to budget

arctic crag
#

Now you can get an i5 11th gen for as low as 157$

#

AMD now is acting like the old intel

proud trellis
#

tf

arctic crag
#

5600x is 300$ and I bet if you could find it at the price

#

Unlike the previous gen 3600x was like 250$

storm osprey
#

once 5000 series launched amd increased the price of everything, and intel cut back

#

for the longest time you could find a 10600k for about 200 bucks, which performs similar to a 5600x, which is 300

Yep

#

In gaming yes

Anyone here has a palit factory overclocked gpu?

wintry prairie
#

Why?

keen shore
#

I clicked “restore all” option to reset led settings but I’m concerned if the factory oc settings are back to default

#

By default I mean before factory oc values

wintry prairie
#

Not enough info really, but if its a palit software and you hit restore all it should restore it to when you bought it settings and should not get rid of OC. If you want to be doubley sure you may want to reach out to Palit.

Alrighty thank you

#

Blue,Red or Brown switches?

storm osprey
#

neither

#

none

#

its all about the gazzew bobba u4 switches

arctic crag
#

What do you use?

storm osprey
#

aliaz 70g

#

and gat silent browns

arctic crag
#

Silent switches?

storm osprey
#

ye

#

idk if youre asking if they are both silent, or what exactly silent means

arctic crag
#

It’s called silent switches on their website

#

Aliaz silent switches

storm osprey
#

silent means these parts are rubber instead of plastic

#

those are the parts that make a clacky sound when your bottom/top out

arctic crag
#

Yeah sounds nice

storm osprey
#

(not to be conflused with clicky switches or tactic switches and the sound that comes from the leaflet/spring)

arctic crag
#

So the one with the green light is gazzew?

storm osprey
#

light green is brown

#

regular browns are not silent, hence that plastic on plastic clack sound

arctic crag
#

Yeah that gazzew sounds a lot better

storm osprey
#

ever since i went silent switches i cant go back

#

only problem is MOST silent switches are pretty expensive

#

and not really something you will find in a prebuilt

arctic crag
#

How is the travel distance

storm osprey
#

id assume the standard 2mm

#

you dont really get lower unless its specifically said to be a speed or low profile switch

arctic crag
#

Do you know where can I buy those?

storm osprey
arctic crag
#

Sadness

storm osprey
#

not in your region?

arctic crag
#

I still can buy from USA

storm osprey
#

why not aliexpress?

arctic crag
#

Ehhh

#

I don’t really trust aliexpress

storm osprey
#

be warned, nice switches are usually expensive

#

a standard cherry red/blue/brown is like... 35 cents, things like gazzew are probably around a dollar or more a switch

#

i am pleasantly surprised, these are only 65 cents a switch for me

arctic crag
#

I found them for 12$ on Aliexpress

storm osprey
#

for a pack of 10?

arctic crag
#

They sell 2 switches for 12$ LUL LUL

storm osprey
#

oof

#

also, these are tactile switches, so they are like browns

#

they have silent linears too (reds), silent tactile isnt really a thing since its two contradictions

arctic crag
#

Pack of 10 is 25$

storm osprey
#

fairly expensive

arctic crag
#

You paid 65cents per switch?

storm osprey
#

i dont have bobba u4, those came out like 2 years after i built my keyboard

#

i have aliaz, which are cheap silent tactiles but not a lot of people like them because they have a very light bump

#

i personally like a light bump so they are great for me

quick locust
#

I wanna try buckling spring

#

But expensive to ship

storm osprey
#

my friend has one, way too loud and heavy to be a thing anyone would actually use

#

of course someone does to be a fucking hipster though

arctic crag
#

@storm osprey do you play bf4?

quick locust
#

Well you're ultralight everything so

#

I have tried buckling spring before but only old kbs

#

I currently use blues which are alright ish

storm osprey
#

my switches are heavier than normal, i have 70g vs reds being 40g and browns around 55g iirc

quick locust
#

Really hate the glossy black on keyboard though, gets scratched all the time

#

I never liked reds, I tried them

storm osprey
quick locust
#

Too light

storm osprey
#

55-65g is my preferred range

quick locust
#

Gateron seem to be uncommon heee

#

Here

#

Gazzew ive never seen

storm osprey
#

thats weird, they are probably the 2nd biggest switch manufacturer

quick locust
#

yeah but most are membrane in stores

#

then quite a few mx

storm osprey
#

gazzew isnt a manufacturer like cherry or gateron, gazzew designs the switches and uses outemu to manufacture

quick locust
#

i do see gaterons they are just less than cherry

#

in the stores here

storm osprey
#

cherry is like the original

#

their patent came up a few years ago iirc, and thats why there are a bunch of "clones" now

quick locust
#

ah

#

wish asetek would lose theirs

storm osprey
#

the problem with switches is that a switch can be good or bad depending on how old the machinery is

quick locust
#

here's one with outemu

storm osprey
#

cherry reds used to be scratchy as shit until gateron put out their red switches that were way better, then cherry retooled the machining

#

DELTACO?!

#

thats literally a shitty mexican fast food chain here xD

quick locust
#

lol

#

doesn't it just mean the taco

storm osprey
#

my spanish isnt good, but im pretty sure if i wanted to say "the taco" it would be "el taco"

quick locust
#

all the corsair ones seem to be mx

#

heres one but

#

it's a french kb

#

azerty would throw me off quite a bit i think

“El” literally means The

Ok then

wintry prairie

I do video work

How much ram are you getting sir

wintry prairie
#

And got a new monitor for gaming I'd like to max out

#

64 GB RAM

short pier
#

This guy

wintry prairie
#

3600 I think

short pier
#

Makes no mistakes bro

short pier
#

He's gonna be like "CL16" next

wintry prairie
#

I made the mistake of getting 4333 RAM when I ggot my 7900X, which was a huge waste . . . .

arctic crag
#

3600 is perfect but be carful with cl latency

wintry prairie
#

Let me check

short pier
#

I got 3600

arctic crag
#

Above 3600 might not be stable

short pier
#

Ryzen 5

#

3600

arctic crag
#

3600 cl16 is the sweet spot

short pier
#

And 3200mhz CL16 ram

#

Should have paid 7 dollars more for the 3600 but I was ignorant

arctic crag
#

I assume you have a b450 that’s why you got the 3200

wintry prairie
#

yeah, it is 3600 CL 16

short pier
#

I was like fuuck

wintry prairie
#

x570

#

here

short pier
#

Ok man you don't gotta flex

arctic crag
#

I don’t if it’s stable with 3600 but I hear b450 isn’t stable

wintry prairie
#

lol, sorry

short pier
#

X470 is better than b450 though

arctic crag
#

Yep

short pier
#

Better vrms and whatever

#

Pretty pog got it for 96 dollars including tax

arctic crag
#

Actually vram depends on which brand you buy from

short pier
#

Like 96 dollars for the board, including tax so the total cost was 96

wintry prairie
#

I REALLY wanted the EVGA motherboard, but its not out yet. It will be their first ever AMD motherboard.

short pier
#

Not vram

arctic crag
#

I know my bad

short pier
#

Yeah it's an MSI gaming plus max x470

wintry prairie
#

what cpu on it?

short pier
#

Ryzen 5 3600

wintry prairie
#

Oh, that is great too

arctic crag
#

So for example asus strix b450 has a better vrm than a x470 MSI bazzoka or tomahawk

short pier
#

Yeah it's probably more expensive too

arctic crag
#

Yep

short pier
#

When you could use that money to buy a better x470

arctic crag
#

I mean it depends on the person

#

Some wants the fancy look and doesn’t need the features of x470

short pier
#

Yeah to each their own

arctic crag
#

Like RGB freaks out there they pay way more than the normal people

short pier
#

But I am a complete gamer man you know I'm spending this shit FRUGALLY

short pier

I can't stand RGB, at all. I just replaced the thermal pads and past on my GPU and unplugged the RGB.

short pier
#

Damn man I wouldn't go that far

#

Unless your PC is in your face

wintry prairie
#

I know, but I'm waiting for RGB 2.0 which will quadruple FPS in BF 2042

arctic crag

Actually i would it’s fucking unnecessary light

short pier

I don't really care about the rgb gains I prefer the classic ram download every upgrade cycle

wintry prairie

Also get a gaming chair it increases accuracy by 80%

Rgb gaming chairs

wintry prairie

I'll get two chairs. One for me, the other for my feet.

arctic crag

Now that’s over 9000

short pier

How are your feet going to benefit from a gaming chair

wintry prairie

Hmmm, your right, maybe for my shoes then

short pier

Why not spend that money to get gaming chairs for your arms

arctic crag

MUCH FASTER

Yeah ig add a pedal to get some more fps

Spend the rest of your life in the hospital but you get to play 2042 at 4k 100fps

👌

arctic crag
#

4K 100fps stop doing drugs mate

short pier
#

Sorry

#

144fps

wintry prairie
#

I "upgraded" my monitor and went for FPS this time around. But went smaller.

arctic crag
#

For 1440p or 4K I see people recommending 27inches

short pier
#

How many freedom units

#

In width

arctic crag
#

24 is good for 1080p

short pier
wintry prairie
#

I used to play 2K 30" 60Hz, then switched to 2K 27" 60Hz, and just recently I went with 1080 25" 360Hz

short pier

Bro

#

Where do you deal your drugs man

wintry prairie
#

lol, nah

short pier
#

I want in

wintry prairie
arctic crag
#

You’re the first one I’ve ever seen downgrading from 1440p to 1080p

short pier
#

Well in bf and other games it doesn't matter

#

Since there is a resolution slider

#

Not all games have it though

arctic crag
#

30,25 these aren’t very popular like 24,27

short pier
#

Alright well they are options still

wintry prairie
#

It might be 24, not 25. but /shrug

arctic crag
#

But still for just a one game

short pier
#

Yeah I have a 27 inch 1080p monitor. After playing on a 24 inch one I much prefer the size of the 27 inches regardless of pixel concentration

wintry prairie
#

Well, its supported in quite a few games

short pier
#

It's just awfully dubious

arctic crag
wintry prairie
#

But yes, mainly did it for BF 2042. I've played BF 4 since beta. Still one of my favorite games.

arctic crag
#

You still playing bf4?

chrome skiff

there is 4-5 1440p options in that list

short pier
#

Bf4 good game

arctic crag

Absolutely

short pier

2042 good game too

👍

arctic crag

It’s my fav bf by far

I’m talking about modern games

#

2020-2021

short pier
#

Yeah obviously

#

But goddamn 360hz

#

That is crazy

wintry prairie
#

Then again, it is easier to get 360 on a 1080

short pier
#

Factual

arctic crag
#

Yeah

quick locust
short pier
#

Have you experienced 360 frames on a 360hz monitor?

#

Is it glorious ?

short pier
#

So I guess 1440p would be 2.5k

wintry prairie
#

2560x1600, 2560x1440, 1920x1080

arctic crag
#

There is a difference ofc 2560x1440 vs 1920x1080

wintry prairie
#

yes

short pier
#

Yes indeed there is

arctic crag
#

1600 is 16:10 aspect ratio

wintry prairie
#

lol, I know

short pier
#

16:9 gang

#

Always

#

Foreva

arctic crag
#

16:10 is good productivity but for gaming it’s not as most dev optimized their gaming for 16:9

wintry prairie
#

If I need to go lower to get more fps, then I'll get a 340 monitor, and lots of RGB

quick locust
quick locust
#

Just what i meant to say

#

I run 1440 165Hz, pretty nice

short pier
#

My phone is at 2%

#

Less gooo

I think sooner or later 1440p will become the standard

yeah overwatch is fairly easy to run

so is battlefield 4

like i wont expect a great gaming experience just good enough for time pass
