Looking at product images it seems like the heat sink isn’t that great so he’s probably stuck with the temps

molten coral
#

Kinda like one of those NZXT cases

nova shell
#

The front of the case has glass that’s pushed forward and has vents in the front

molten coral
#

Literally does fuck all most of the time with cases like this though

#

It just isn't sufficient enough

nova shell
#

Yeah

#

Ok to test to see if this case doesn’t have sufficient airflow take off the front of the case and run the benchmark

#

Also how do you have your case fans setup

#

Benchmark with unigine

#

Ok ok

#

Not a bad looking budget setup

#

You’re fine

#

Ok

#

That’s what I expect a 2060 to be at

#

Yep

#

Yeah

#

Completely fine

#

You should use that to cool the pc

#

Might be a bit louder but your temps should be better

#

No problem

so on my windows drive i had 30GB free out of 220GB, so i just uninstalled FIVEM as it was installed on my windows drive and i now have 112GB free out of 220GB, i guess i found out what was taking up so much space which im well happy about as i thought i would of ended up having to reinstall windows at some point

honest bison
#

those are fine temps

#

no need to do crazy shit like using a leaf blower *which btw isnt ideal as it cant kill your pc due to static buildup, have seen lots of people had this happen)

#

then the gpu is good, but your case airflow isnt

#

that doesnt mean it will give your case better airflow lmao

#

I understood well, I meant that if your case has bad airflow, no matter how much you clean it, you temps will always be high

#

np

#

you could get a better case

#

or just remove front pannel

#

no

#

medium/low to get decent fps

pale quartz
#

no lol you are GPU bound overclocking isnt going to help you

midnight crypt
#

If you fried your pc with an OC

#

Dont ever touch OCing again

nova shell
honest bison
#

No

#

No wonders

#

You should educate yourself more

raw turtle
#

what game?

#

i’d recommend actually following a guide in overclocking if you’re gonna overclock your GPu

#

GPU is probably the easiest thing to OC

#

run benchmark in background, fans at 100% speed, slight increments of clock speed until crash, back down speed to stable, run extended test for stability, adjust fan speed to a quieter but still appropriate speed

#

done

#

however don’t overclock a laptop gpu

#

don’t touch it

#

also how did it manage to try the other components

#

that confuses me

#

Can my i7-3770 run 2042? The PC requirements say that i need a i5 6600K minimum

latent light
#

i7 would have a more stable framerate because it has more threads

lusty hare

But will i be able to run bf2042

Would be pretty dumb to not have support of older i7s considering models like 3770K/4770K/4790K are still some of the most used CPUs to date

quick locust
#

there's plenty of safeguards on a 1660 super, so it shouldn't be possible for you to fry it with a software OC unless you're doing something extreme

#

not sure how it'd fry your other components either, unless it was your PSU that was not working in the first place

#

@pale quartz wdym officially supported

#

it will run the game

pale quartz
#

any of those 3 apply

toxic zealot
#

its still x86 cpu with not different instruction set support

#

so it can run just different fps

cloud solar
#

3050?

toxic zealot
#

its dumb to tell people its not supported

pale quartz
#

and no, it's not

toxic zealot
#

the proper answer is it might not run at 60fps

#

it is

pale quartz
#

anything which isn't there is not guaranteed to run, it's just how these things work

#

it isn't to do with it being x86 or not infact the ISA is totally redundant

toxic zealot
#

wdym not guaranteed to run

#

not guaranteed to run are cpus that cant run windows 10

#

and that might be even false since the game can prob run on w7

pale quartz
# toxic zealot wdym not guaranteed to run

you cannot tell someone that their hardware will, or will not run a certain piece of hardware if it is outside the developer specification, a dual core pentium can install windows 10, it cannot run triple A games though, this is why whitelists are used for hardware

#

they are entirely decided on by the developer it has nothing to do with what it supposedly can, or cannot do

toxic zealot
#

wdym pentium cant run AAA title

#

comfortable 30-60fps

#

cinematic experience

pale quartz
#

by that I'm talking about t3300 types not ones that can literally be overclocked to obscene levels

#

do not tell someone that they can or can't, because its entirely projection, and you're giving someone a false sense of security when you yourself have no idea of its true

toxic zealot
#

?

#

t330 uses a xeon

pale quartz
#

none of us will until it launches

toxic zealot
#

oh

#

its a cpu

#

2 cores 2 ghz bruh

#

ofc i would tell someone it wont work

#

on 2 ghz celeron

#

lmao

pale quartz
#

that's the point, the clock speed is redundant

toxic zealot
#

that can barely run the os itself

#

100 hamsters running on opening chrome

pale quartz
#

you're using arbitrary things which aren't how games actually decide if hardware is supported to run a game as pre conceived validators, it is a bad idea all round

toxic zealot
#

wdym

#

anything faster than cpu which can run the game at 30fps should run the game unless the game is bugged

pale quartz
# toxic zealot wdym

if someone is asking you whether "X thing can run X game", which is outside of a minimum specification, you cannot tell them the answer is yes, or no, because you have no idea if it is actually true or not

#

it is entirely based on projection and is giving the person a false sense of assurance/if it doesn't, and you tell them no when the answer is actually yes, false information

#

"should" is not "will", those are 2 very different things, and telling someone yes is telling them it will run the game, being honest and saying "it could/might/might not" is better for everyone involved in the situation

toxic zealot
#

"bruh its outside of game specs it cant possibly run the game"

#

im amazed how they made i5 6600k drop down to 25fps

But yeah, resolution naming is dum

quick locust
#

2K is 2048x1080

But monitors are mostly 16:9 so 1920x1080 is closest

1440 is not defined in DCI so it does not have a K value

Zen 3D will have to be priced very competitively to compete with Alder-Lake, but I think they are gonna increase core counts (R5 will become 8-core and R7 will become 12-core)

#

If they don't raise core counts, you're gonna see the i5-12600K dominating the Ryzen 7 6800X

#

12600K sits between the 5800X and 5900X in multi-thread performance, over 60% faster than 5600X

i come into this channel very rarely but im bout to buy an ssd 1Tb but im not sure which one to get

storm osprey
#

sata or m.2?

solar kestrel
#

really depends on the pricing

#

im pretty sure sata tends to be a bit cheaper

#

so im not really sure atm

#

I was thinking about this one

supple bane
#

Wd blue is perfectly fine for an ssd

#

There are better and there are worse

solar kestrel
#

or this one they are the same price

supple bane
#

The 2nd one is sata not pcie

solar kestrel
#

ok

supple bane
#

So its only 500 mb/s rather than 2500

solar kestrel
#

so i should go for the first on?

#

one

supple bane
#

Id go for 2.5" personally

supple bane
#

Because there is no difference in load time between 2.5" and m.2

#

M.2 really comes into its own for data transfer and workstation use, ie video editing

solar kestrel
storm osprey
#

its the same price and arguably better than the sn550

solar kestrel

where i live its still 120

its very small

pale quartz
#

NVMe is much faster as a protocol than SATA for a reason, you have things like PAS etc that is built into the NVMe protocol that doesn't exist with SATA

#

it is a much better usage over the SATA interface and should be chosen where possible over SATA devices

supple bane
#

i know that nvme is faster than sata, obviously

#

im talking specifically loading games

pale quartz
#

it is still faster

#

you just don't see it in raw benchmarks

#

PAS is priority asset streaming which allows for assets to be streamed through a dedicated buffer the SATA interface does not have this luxury

#

you also have additional features like DS that are not compatible with the SATA interface

supple bane
#

ive still never seen any evidence to suggest that it affects load times in a meaningful way though

pale quartz
#

that's because you're looking at things from a surface level POV

supple bane
#

im looking at the time it takes to load a game :p

pale quartz
#

behind the scenes it is technologically superior in every regard and NVMe should be used as the defacto drive

supple bane
#

hence the only thing im interested in

#

i dont care how its done, i just want performance you see

#

its all good having all these bells and whistles, but if for me it proves no improvement, why bother?

pale quartz
#

that's a bad viewpoint, the question was about asking for a drive, not one that is dedicated to "loading games"

#

the person before will be doing much more than just playing games with the drive as it will be their main drive which is why it's critical to consider the technology underneath

empty fox
#

Steam Deck masterrace

supple bane
#

but i know goopy. and im fairly sure he only uses his pc for games you see, thats why i took that view point

pale quartz
#

nobody ever, just uses it "for games"

supple bane
#

i do :P

pale quartz
#

they have multiple tabs open be it discord Spotify browsers whatever

#

there are numerous actions going on at once outside of just games

#

that's all fine and dandy when you have access to other drives not when you have just one

storm osprey
#

well yea people use it for other things as well, but spotify and multiple tabs doesnt really leverage a faster drive either so thats kind of redundant

supple bane
#

^

latent light
#

^

pale quartz
#

they definitely do

supple bane
#

i would agree on that statement if it was 1996

#

but discord and Spotify etc are so light compared to modern hardware it doesnt register

latent light
#

You can have 10 applications open and it wouldn't make much of a difference

storm osprey
#

granty did say that for things outside of gaming theres a benefit but for just gaming theres marginal differences in load times

#

kinda semantic to say otherwise imo

pale quartz
#

you know that the size of the application isn't important here, and it's the fact that multiple I/O streams are being factored in at once right?

#

which NVMe is infinitely superior to over SATA?

storm osprey
#

you know 99.9% of people care about the end result and thats all we have talked about

supple bane
#

yep thats great, but can the user tell that thats going on?

pale quartz
#

and the end result will be better

#

that's a fact

storm osprey
#

by like... .3 seconds

pale quartz
#

no, by general usage lol

#

go open 5 applications at once over the SATA protocol compared to NVMe, see what happens

latent light
#

NVMe drives make more sense for content creators moving large 50+GB files

storm osprey
#

alright well next time you handle the question instead of coming in after the fact to very peculiarly tear apart advice

pale quartz
#

I'm not tearing apart advice I was backing up your recommendation lol

supple bane
storm osprey
#

i know you didnt question my advice

latent light
#

Who even has 5 apps running at once anyway, usually it's 2-3 at most

#

Game, discord, chrome

#

Most of the time it's just game and discord

pale quartz
supple bane
pale quartz
#

most people don't bother with the time to actually disable their startup items

#

so when you're talking about the average user these things are important

storm osprey
#

i dont think many of them are timing the AT MOST 10 second load time difference on boot

supple bane
#

ive never seen the difference reach 2 seconds between 2.5" and m.2

pale quartz
#

and as this scalability increases, the importance of NVMe increases

storm osprey
#

for shits and giggles ill test this when i get home just to see the difference, i doubt a 10 second difference will occur

pale quartz
#

you aren't going to notice a time difference

#

what you are going to notice is how many applications are sequentially loaded at once

#

which is NVMe's biggest advantage

storm osprey
#

well personally, and i imagine most people, factor in how fast something loads much heavier than if multiple things load at once

short pier
#

Techn - ology

pale quartz
#

what people perceive to be the biggest factor isnt actually the biggest impact on their actual workflow

#

happens all the time, even with experts

#

the SATA interface is outdated because multiple operations being performed at once bottlenecks the queue, it was why the NVMe protocol came around to begin with

and that's why you should never drink water from a soda fountain

it depends on what cpu you have also, i would say just get a cable, you would see a nice improvement in quality and responsiveness just with that 30 buck purchase.

yo guys could you tell me if this parts list is good?

the ram is for my old build i already have 3200mhz 32gb ram lying around

and i already have storage too

pale quartz
#

CL163200 is what you require not that

little oasis
#

meh, not much difference between CL19 and CL16

pale quartz
#

yes there is

#

that is a massive difference

#

that die bin is absolutely terrible not even OEMs use timings that bad

little oasis
#

which honestly ain't bad at all

#

and that's for CPU-bound processes, anything that's more intensive on your GPU won't see any performance change

pale quartz
#

this isn't some Cl16/17 difference here this is 3 layers of a difference for cas latency

#

the subtimings are going to be absolutely awful and it's that bad it doesn't even appear in raw numbers

#

nobody under any circumstance should be using this type of binned memory in their systems

latent light
#

Except a grandma that plays farmville

pale quartz
#

^

latent light
#

Seems like in recent years that RAM speed is becoming more important

pale quartz
#

ehh it's down to CPU architectural differences mainly than the memory itself

latent light
#

I remember when DDR4 came out and there was only 2133 and 2400 MHz kits with CL19 timings

pale quartz
#

things like the IF which weren't done before FCLK etc put a bigger priority importance on the binned memory

latent light
#

People used to say Intel preferred tighter timings while AMD preferred frequency but to me they look the same

pale quartz
#

that was always a wrong assumption neither is true

#

ryzen is latency sensitive that is frequency and timings it isn't considered with raw throughput because 1:1 ratios are decoupled past 1800 imposing an inherit penalty

#

it's down to how CCX complexes interact with the IF intel didn't have anything like the Zen architecture which is why you could get away with subpar memory with "fine" performance

latent light
#

I haven't got to tweak with a Ryzen 3000/5000 CPU yet so I never got to play with IF and FCLK

pale quartz
#

that will change with ADL but it's simply a architecture design reason

#

the more you place importance on interconnects the bigger the priority becomes on latency, can't have it both ways

pale quartz
#

tweaking them beyond their factory design brings instability and shouldn't be done

latent light
#

Same can be said about going beyond JEDEC memory spec

pale quartz
#

your road will vary depending on the memory itself, Zen takes a big influence from the end CCD calculation number

latent light
#

You can't guarantee stability going past spec

pale quartz
#

no it can't

#

the IF and FCLK are clocked automatically by the board they don't require manual tuning

#

JEDEC specs are tied to the memory die they aren't programmable entries

latent light
#

One weird occurrence for me is when my 3200 MHz kit is more stable than my old 2666 MHz kit on R5 1600AF

#

I guess the 2666 kit may be defective in some way

pale quartz
#

nah

#

it's just how binning works

#

higher the frequency and the the tighter the timings are at XMP the better quality the memory is

#

which means it has a higher tolerance level before memory corruption exists

latent light
#

XMP 3.0 is arriving with ADL

#

Should be on Zen 4 too

pale quartz
#

XMP 3.0 isn't with binning itself it's simply a protocol for boards

#

and well XMP doesn't matter really for binning itself

latent light
#

Yeah ik

#

With XMP 3.0, you'll be able to personalize profiles and there's now 3

#

Wonder if Nvidia is gonna reveal discrete RTX 3050Ti before 2022

#

And I hope it has more than 4GB VRAM like leaks suggest

little oasis
pale quartz
#

this is ryzen 5000 here not some generic intel chip

little oasis
#

speed is still more important than latency, even in CPU-intensive tasks like FEA

pale quartz
#

you see that difference between 2T CL14 vs T1 CL14? those are the penalties involved when you go down 3 tiers of CAS latency

pale quartz
#

that's not how Zen runs calculations for throughput

#

a 4000MHz CL20 die is worse than a CL163800 memory die

latent light
#

True gamers choose 3600 MHz CL16 kits

pale quartz
#

you fundamentally misunderstand how memory calculations work

little oasis
#

3600 CL16 to CL18, with a difference of less than 3 fps

#

and that's on 1080p

#

if you move to 1440 or 4k, the difference is even smaller

pale quartz
#

what are you talking about? the minimum framerate drops aswell as the average

#

and by the way

little oasis
#

but, a 15% drop?

pale quartz
#

this is 3600 memory

#

not 3200 CL19

#

yes

#

3200 CL19 is that bad it's literally not even reviewed for synthetic benchmarks

little oasis
#

yes, we're comparing the same frequency, with different CL

pale quartz
#

no we're not we're talking about 2 entirely different grades of memory bin here

pale quartz
#

CL183600 is actually normal memory binning because it's a scaled CL163200 bin, CL193200 is absolutely terrible and uses bottom of the barrel die bins

#

it's literally worse than OEM memory

little oasis
#

the difference isn't still as much as you mention

#

hell, even lower frequency RAM doesn't have that much of a difference

pale quartz
#

what are you talking about?

#

every single memory in that video is better than this one?

little oasis
#

is really 3000 CL19 better than 3200 CL19?

#

bruh

pale quartz
#

can you read..? it's CL193600

#

CL14/16 3000

little oasis
#

you really know that CL doesn't mean anything unless you're doing some CPU intensive tasks, right?

#

frequency is still more important

pale quartz
#

lol do you understand how Zen even works?

#

that's the important question

#

because it's pretty clear you do not you literally linked a video that has better memory bins than the one that was linked before

little oasis
#

yes, I do understand how Zen, and specially things like infinity fabric works

pale quartz
#

really so you understand that the IF relies on the CAS latency specifically aswell as FAW for calculating raw throughput?

marsh gull
pale quartz
#

that shouldn't be used on DDR3 nevermind ryzen 5000

marsh gull
pale quartz
little oasis
#

IF ratios depend a lot on more than the memory itself, and even then it has been proven that better speed is more important than latency

pale quartz

marsh gull
pale quartz
#

your team group kit will do you fine can get a 8x2 other kit or 16x2 take your pick

little oasis
pale quartz
#

nobody goes past 3600 on Zen 2 because the CCDs aren't totally interconnected which is why CL takes a big penalty hit for 2:1

marsh gull
little oasis
#

and that's due to inherent things on its design, as the latency is worse than Zen1, but the L3 cache makes up for it

pale quartz
little oasis
marsh gull
pale quartz
#

once you enter 2:1 territory you need raw synthetics to bypass the latency penalty which isn't happening unless you've got some insane kit of 4800 at CL20 or whatever and even then it probably won't even boot

little oasis
#

I'd say that 16Gb of ram became the new standard

pale quartz
#

eh they're selling it it's kind of a different situation

#

the end buyer it's bad but nobody cares about them anyways

#

little point upgrading the memory you just reduce your net profit
