time to back intel ty

pale quartz
#

i wasnt, the different 1005 SMD for the different z height means its a problem

#

thats not so simple, the layer is packed on a top and bottom layout, which doesnt exist for RKL, or 10th gen

it will have to be done exclusively for ADL, existing techniques dont work

@pale quartz so, I've got a tricky issue. My PC started to randomly lock up. I tried a 60 min run of Prime95, no errors, a full run of Passmark Memtest86, no errors, ran Furmark for 45 mins, no issue, ran on each stick of RAM individually, no luck there as well.

And you tested the RAM in a different system?

light wave
#

I tested each kit using Passmark's memtest from an USB

#

All 13 tests ran with 0 errors.

willow schooner
#

Possibly OS drive failure? If it were power supply, the system would shutoff partially, GPU would be signal loss, RAM would be blue screen, same for CPU

#

@hidden pumice Some basic troubleshooting things ,

Are you 100% sure that you enabled XMP? This is what makes the ram run at the advertised speed and if it’s not it could be causing performance issues.

if you previously upgraded from a older GPU, specifically radeon, did you do a full DDU to get rid of drivers?

I guess also make sure drivers are completely updated just as a general rule of thumb but that probably won’t fix it.

What is the agreed best CPU for BF2042 paired with a 3080 Ti. Not going for a 3090 as there is no real performance gain compared to the 3080 Ti.

My monitor is only 4k60hz atm but I might buy a 4k144hz or 4k120hz TV in future

a 2600, which is a cool running cpu, but a 100w under synthetics isnt anything to scoff at i guess

On this AIO my temp has been around 80c max at 100%

Wait like a i7 2600? 👀

I was like he can't possibly use that leo

You never know tho 😛

i look forward to the nice 150w 12600k

modern gull

I think i got mine to 160-180w i think it was OMEGALUL

and thats if intels "turbo power" is accurate. wouldn't be completely surprising if its more than that

I think those was no oc

supple bane
#

what, the 12600k?

modern gull
supple bane
#

oh.

#

derek made that thonk face so i thought i said something dum

modern gull
#

It has base at 3.6 i guess that's where they do TDP from or something WoahThink

supple bane
#

probably

#

they said the tdp was 125w. with the turbo tdp being 150w

#

but i dont think either will be true tbh

modern gull
#

But it will run 2 cores i think at 5ghz and rest 4.7

supple bane
#

my old i5 7400 was a 65w tdp and i never saw it go over 40w

modern gull
#

The watt i said was with turbo mode tho

#

Let me check what watt i get now, i had to clock it down to 4ghz lol

supple bane
#

4ghz, thats yikes for a 9900k

opaque saddle
#

I usually switch off turbo and hyper threading

supple bane
#

a whole ghz lower than what it can do

modern gull
supple bane
#

is that 100% load?

modern gull

Had to as my AIO going bad 😛

#

Yes

supple bane
#

at 4ghz?

modern gull

Mhm

supple bane
#

wow.

#

9900k more efficient than r5 2600 clock per clock

modern gull
#

All cores

opaque saddle
modern gull
#

Well also turbo if your cooling is good enough for that cpu

opaque saddle
#

I only got 1 cpu fan and 1 exhaust fan for that build

#

No need for for cooling since it don’t get hot anyway

modern gull
#

I see

#

Hyper threading gives you more performance in most modern games

opaque saddle
#

I don’t play games on that pc

modern gull
#

If your gpu is at 100% anyways it don't matter, won't get more fps leo

opaque saddle
#

It is fast for browsing YouTube and not kidding. The SSD is fast

modern gull
#

Ah

opaque saddle
#

That was my old build tho. 4th intel

#

A GTX 960 4GB and 16gb ram for that build

modern gull
#

I see, i see

supple bane
#

man that was bad lmao

#

i wanted to SS how much power my cpu draws at 4ghz to show its about 95w (more than a 9900k at 4ghz which has more cores)

opaque saddle
#

Unless you want a 12900k and a 3090, 128gb ram for watching YouTube videos

supple bane
#

i set cpu z's priority to high to see if i could get more juice flowing, and the system was so slow after that the test wouldnt stop heh

#

task manager crashed, cpu z was responsive but the buttons werent doing anything. had to sign out

modern gull
opaque saddle
#

I remember I did however, set a RAM disk before

#

So the cache will go directly toward the RAM disk

#

But since google chrome just cache it into RAM these days anyway

#

I just don’t see the whole point of doing that anymore

modern gull
#

Didn't intel make somekind of cache or ram disk thing?

opaque saddle
#

Not sure

modern gull
#

Like to boost HDD speed or something

opaque saddle
#

What I was referring to, is not making chrome to make any single traces via SSD

opaque saddle
#

Well, optane is good for system drive

#

Low latency but it isn’t good for the price

#

Would rather grab a Samsung SSD coz it worth the price anyway

modern gull

Was gonna get that actually but got a m.2 instead anyways

supple bane
#

random question but does anyone know of any white tower coolers?

yeee that one

supple bane

it says suitable up to 210w. but i cant see it tbh

pretty sure the 34 esport single fan line was pretty damn good

storm osprey
#

same, i like arctic... obviously

supple bane
#

hmm.

#

i feel like 88c at 150w is still pretty hot.

#

considering that im assuming the 12600k will draw more than that when its turboing. im not sure

#

if its worth paying double for the nhd 15

#

the 11600k peaked at 220w iirc

gentle veldt
#

So building a high end pc what's the verdict on cooling.. Not doing a water loop but what are my options and pros and cons

storm osprey
#

depending on price the arctic liquid freezer ii is just too good to pass up unless you dont need that much cooling

nova shell
#

I need to cool my 187w ryzen 5 2600

storm osprey
#

yea for essentially 90 bucks anything 60 bucks or more i would say this dominates those suggestions

#

i guess the only con to the arctic aio is longevity, air coolers just naturally last longer, but its not like a quality aio is going to die within 5 years anyway

#

pretty damn sure their warranty is 6 years, so they believe it will last at least that long, but if something other than a fan goes out youre looking at replacing a whole new one, compared to air coolers its only the fan that will go bad and those are easy/cheap to replace

nova shell
#

Should I strap 2 delta fans to my aio

The delta fans draw over 1 amp each

I just bought the chip to update the bios to support 5000 series which I’m getting a 5900x

#

Lap the aio and try 5 gigahertz all core Thonk

midnight crypt
#

sounds like a fantastically horrible idea

nova shell

So 12 cores at 5 gigahertz how many watts should it draw?

400w?

not that OC is worth it anyway iirc

i feel like its going to start to really test the abilities of blocks/cold plates/ thermal paste/ cooler efficiency. if there is 500w packed into a gpu by default

not just the surface area of the heatsink

pale quartz
#

its already possible

#

the materials wont be impacted

supple bane
#

yeah i know, but it requires very expensive coolers :P

#

thats my point

pale quartz
#

it doesnt, just ramp up the fan speed, you solve your issues pretty much

#

if inaudible*

#

500w bioses already exist for the 3090 and have for a while

#

used sparingly for those in the enthusiast community

supple bane
#

but if the tdp of the 3090 is what? 350? and the tdp of the 4090 is 550

#

then the Xoc bioses might be pushing 700w

#

if it stays proportional

pale quartz
#

tdp doesnt matter

#

hardware manufacturers already push the 3090 beyond 400 as a standard

latent light
#

550W TGP not TDP

#

TGP is exclusively the GPU chip itself iirc

pale quartz
#

450w is common for the most overclocked 3090's, and common spikes for the FE 3090

latent light
#

Nvidia power does spike like a mf even with RTX 2000 series

pale quartz
#

what the trouble with this 3090ti is, is that spikes will push towards 600w of power

supple bane

my 2070 doesnt really power spike as far as ive observed

which is verging on big trouble for 850w PSUs

Hopefully it doesn't require a lot more or it'll make the power bill a lot

honest bison
#

not even my 3080 gets that hot

supple bane
#

Yeah but your 3080 has a considerably better cooler

#

Its a windforce 2x. They are notorably bad designs

#

Which is why im on the fence about even bothering because the chances of it changing anything are low

#

If i have the temp limit at 81 like it is stock. It will stay there

#

But it will thermal throttle a lil

#

Well not even, just it wont boost

#

1615mhz is boost speed. It can turbo to 1800 easy, but with the temperature limit it will be stuck at about 1650.

last i recall their blacks were good, but that was years ago and idk how their tooling is holding up now

proud trellis
#

oh

storm osprey
#

to showcase the importance of tooling, cherry had their patent or something exclusive to themselves for a loooong time, once it ended other companies started making switches too, but other brands made much better switches because their machines were new vs cherry using tooling from decades ago

so for the longest time if you knew anything about switches, you were a damn fool for buying cherry mx reds because they felt like shit, when you could get gateron reds that were waaaaay better and cheaper

thats the simplest answer i can give without asking if you want custom, stock, what you want it for and why, can you solder, etc

proud trellis
#

i like green clicky switches as i have them rn but blues i just cant stand

storm osprey
#

razer green?

proud trellis
#

yeah

storm osprey
#

those are literally razers "proprietary" blues

proud trellis
#

i would say that greens are kinda quieter then blues which i think is why i prefer them

storm osprey
#

(razer uses kailh to make green switches)

proud trellis
#

oh

storm osprey
#

so unless you are directly comparing two switches where everything is exactly the same BUT the switches, you cant really draw a conclusion to the differences in terms of sound, and technically feel as well

proud trellis
#

i think they have the same materials but just different spring

#

would only make sense to me tbh

storm osprey
#

well there are 2 "springs" in a clicky switch, theres a leaflet and a spring, but im talking about a KEYBOARDS materials changing it

proud trellis
#

ohhhh

#

i wish razer made their keyboards hot swappable as well but i guess that would be pointless in a way as it is a "razer" keyboard

storm osprey
#

id be willing to bet a kailh blue and a razer green would be indistinguishable to almost everyone

#

and that includes someone like me...

proud trellis
#

well if kailh make razer switches basically then there probs is not much of a difference

storm osprey
#

but to go back on what you said earlier, i would highly suggest people that have a vague interest in keyboards to get a hotswap keyboard

proud trellis
#

see with a hotswap keyboard do you have to solder ?

#

or would that just defy the point of it being a hot swappable keyboard

storm osprey
#

no, thats the point of hotswap

#

"hot" meaning you can swap a switch while its on

proud trellis
#

i might just build my own hot swappable keyboard then so i dont need to solder

storm osprey
#

there are a lot of hotswappable keyboards out there, just not by "gaming brands"

proud trellis
#

plus i can just change the switches if i want to whenever really ig

storm osprey
#

glorious GMMK probably being the most popular and one of the cheaper options

proud trellis
#

i might get a TKL keyboard aswell instead of 100%

storm osprey
#

glorious has 3 size options

proud trellis
#

i used my keypad but its not all the time and its just sitting there most the time

storm osprey
#

full, tkl, and 60% iirc

proud trellis
#

wait do the TKL keyboards have F1 and so on keys at the top ?

storm osprey
#

yes

#

only when you start getting into less than 75% do you normally see the function row go away

proud trellis
#

i will most likely get a TKL if they have them keys at the top as i used them often

#

some of my mates have a 60% and get done over without the function keys to

storm osprey
#

a TKL gmmk with gat blacks is 130 bucks for me

proud trellis
#

would building my own keyboard be cheaper then buying one or would it depend on what PCB and other accessories i have ?

#

if i could get a cheap hot swappable keyboard and then buy my own switches and probs keycaps i would do it just to save time

storm osprey
#

uhhh... theres so many factors i cant give a straight answer

proud trellis
#

oh

storm osprey
#

you can do piece by piece, buy a kit, barebones, pre assembled, etc

#

i assume piece by piece and pre assembled are generally the cheaper options but thats kind of a vague statement

#

Tkl just doesnt have the numpad

wise walrus

And what i know Xbox X running 1440p to dynamic 4k? So i guess their solution for a 120 fps is go down to 1080p which wouldn't be a issue for me, cause then we have 120 fps which is a total difference to 60.

nova shell

#

i thought they were like 3060 or 3070 performance?

#

I don't get

DoomPlunge tell me now or Japanese man unclogs your toilet the hard way

#

and he's serious this time

coarse nimbus
#

Why buy a 3070ti? uhh

lunar dawn
#

its not a matter of resolution bcs that would be even worse, they re already stressing the cpu too hard

#

128 players is a lot for a console that uses an apu basically

lunar dawn
#

more like 2070

coarse nimbus
#

Even the newest version? SadFace

nova shell
#

The console was outputting at 4K 60 HDR a LOCKED 60 fps

lunar dawn
#

its upscaled to4k

#

not rendered in 4k, thats how consoles work

nova shell
#

I thought that was for 8K

lunar dawn
#

for native 4k you need way better hardware

lunar dawn
#

i mean the ps5 probably doesnt even output 8k

rocky marlin
nova shell
rocky marlin
#

8k is more of like a fever dream for consoles now

lunar dawn
#

maybe

lunar dawn
#

but not gaming at 8k

#

probably just output

#

or its downscaled

nova shell
lunar dawn
#

i mean you play on a 8k tv but the game is at 1440p for example

lunar dawn

very fee games can run at 8k 60 fos

higher res = gpu has to do more work

lower resolution would require the cpu to do more work

@wise walrus

storm whale

i have a 1650 and if bf 2042 doesnt run well then i might refund it

supple bane
#

it wont run well

storm whale
supple bane
#

what cpu?

storm whale
supple bane
#

10400 then

short pier

Yeah you'll need low settings with that GPU

storm whale
supple bane

ooh.

storm whale

And you're on a laptop

storm whale
supple bane
#

is it a 1650 max Q?

storm whale
short pier
#

How much did you pay for that bro

storm whale
#

just 1650 i think its ti

#

yee 1650 ti

short pier
#

Oh then that's much better

storm whale
#

it can run most games

#

my rdr2 runs very smooth

#

and am oon win 11

short pier
#

A 1650 ti is pretty solid

storm whale
#

which has better performance in gaming than win 10

supple bane
#

it wont be great. but it will run

storm whale
#

on win 11 u get less cpu and ram usage while gaming

short pier
#

On medium I could see that

supple bane
storm whale
supple bane
#

its a very small difference

storm whale
supple bane
#

it is faster, but its not gonna be the difference between playable and not playable

#

its like 3 fps higher

storm whale
#

also whats logical processor lol

short pier
#

Actual cores.

#

The core count

#

Wait no

#

That's threads

#

Logical processors is thread s

storm whale
#

ohh ok

#

i play a lotta apex and get very sechsy fps

short pier
#

That's off the top of my head

storm whale
#

most of the time 100 or 110+ fps

supple bane
#

apex is ez to run tho.

storm whale
supple bane
#

2042 is probably gonna be the most demanding shooter of this generation

supple bane
#

no. IS going to be the most demanding shooter of this generation

short pier
#

Bro it's not that hard to run Granty

supple bane
#

bro i was getting <50 fps in the beta

short pier
#

I have a 1060 and I played on medium to high settings 1080p at like 50 to 70 fps

supple bane
#

its really poorly optimised

#

the beta was at least

storm whale
#

i mean in bf 2042 beta it used to run at like 40 up fps

supple bane
#

just couldnt utilise high end hardware. same as the launch of bfv

short pier
#

Occasionally at c objective when there were like 48 people it would drop to 40 but that was rare

storm whale
short pier
#

But still I was impressed with the performance

storm whale
storm whale

lmao. the performance was one of the consistent negatives i saw on reviews

short pier

it was terrible.

storm whale

Idk for me and my PC it worked really well

short pier
storm whale
supple bane
#

from what ive seen its been like bfv

#

just cant utilise high end hardware

short pier
#

Nah bruh

supple bane
#

like the launch of bfv i had a 1060, and loads of people on 2080's and 2080tis were complaining of stuttering

short pier

What are your specs

supple bane

when i upgraded to a 2070 that whole issue was fixed

storm whale

What is your CPU

supple bane
#

r5 2600

Yeah

Lol

supple bane
#

i know im cpu bottlenecked

short pier
#

C'mon

storm whale
#

is ryzen or intel better

short pier
short pier
#

Some Ryzen CPUs are better some Intel CPUs are better

short pier
#

Just depends

storm whale
#

i think latest ryzen ones are better

supple bane
#

again

#

it depends

#

on SO many factors. Its just media. OoH rYzEn gOoD iNtEl SuK

5 years ago it was the exact opposite

short pier

All hail Lisa su

storm whale
storm whale
supple bane
#

but in reality ryzen couldnt offer any good budget cpus for this generation. the 5600x is like double the price of intels budget cpus

but on the other hand, the 5950x is basically peak performance in everything

is there any cpu except amd-intel

not for PC no

#

well, technically the M1 chips

#

unless you want to build a ARM based computer with a mobile phone chip leo

marsh gull
#

its nice to see competition between flagship cpus but most people want more value-oriented and balanced price/preformance products tbh so this looks cool but does´t peak my interest

stable mountain
#

and just because a CPU has more cores does not make it better, by that logic AMD threadripper would win by default

marsh gull
#

lmao yes

#

cpus should be rated by real-world preformance, value, price, core count, frquency, architecture and heat output all at ounce, not just one variable

#

yeah but one that beats a pc with a 3080

stable mountain
#

in what?

marsh gull
#

and btw 900usd is still more expensive than a 3080

stable mountain
#

it's not

#

GPU's are still hilariously expensive

#

and you won't do much with a 3080 on it's own

marsh gull
#

the 3080 msrp is 700

stable mountain
#

msrp doesn't exist currently

marsh gull
marsh gull
#

pretty much yeah but the max mini cant beat a 3080

#

naa but i see your point

stable mountain
#

the mac minis can game more now with the X86 compatibily i think

#

also just games being more crossplatform these days in general

#

a lot of people buy it for status, percieved being better at A/V stuff. (thruth be told they do have better integration into that world so why change), and...it's what they're used to in the US. unlike europe where we mostly used IBM PC's way back then

Without dGPU?

For gaming? Or general web browsing?

It might not be the best, but it's a foot in the door for upgrading later on

Coz would rather get a cheap i5 for web browsing

pale quartz

if it's trying to have any remote gaming capabilities you can pretty much toss it in the garbage

opaque saddle
#

I just don’t see the point getting a 5600g for gaming if you already have a good gaming pc

pale quartz

yeah save the cash and buy decent components you're just burning cash pretty much

That's why I said 1k, all in.

What for? Bf?

pale quartz

yeah even then you're pretty much scamming yourself

that won't be capable of anything gaming wise until that GPU slot is filled

the 5700g is just a inferior 3700x with 8 CUs on board

opaque saddle

I think what he means is

He wants to get a 5600g or 5700g first

5700G is Zen 3 tho

vast valley
opaque saddle

And get a good GPU later

vast valley

Might as well get a Xbox Series S for $300 instead of a fucking iGPU

pale quartz

it is nowhere near a Zen 3 class desktop CPU

#

the cache onboard is cut massively

opaque saddle
#

@vast valley are you aiming to get a RTX 3060 or above in the future?

latent light
#

5700G is less than double digit performance loss compared to 5800X

Closer to a 5800X than 3800XT lmao

pale quartz

pretty significant loss considering you're talking about the same cores

I can't justify spending $500+ on a PC with integrated graphics, rather have a console lol

even at that laptops have better performance and are cheaper

Tbh I will just get a 3060 with a cheap 10th Gen i5 and call it a day. That will come closer to your budget if your local computer stores didn’t mark up their prices too rapidly @vast valley

At least consoles these days are 120Hz capable

opaque saddle

just print money

Your build is just too fancy Thonk

Asus does not certify 4000MHz on that board

Coz some ram sticks won’t even boot on 3000 series Ryzen

vast valley
pale quartz
#

it's Zen 3 not Zen 2

vast valley
#

That's the build I'm looking at

pale quartz
#

yeah that'll work fine

vast valley
#

The exact build

opaque saddle
#

Nope. You don’t understand. I’m talking about the overall compatibility

latent light
#

Apparently the latency of the best currently available DDR5 kit is comparable to a CL20 3600MHz DDR4 kit

pale quartz
#

overall compatibility differs from Zen 2 and Zen 3 Zen 2 only supports up to 3200 for 1:1 FCLK Zen 3 supports up to 3600 for 1:1 guaranteed FCLK on the IMC

latent light
#

DDR5 as of now is worse than DDR4 for gaming

opaque saddle
#

It will work if the manufacturer have listed it is compatible

pale quartz
#

outside of that it's the silicon lottery

#

and nothing is guaranteed to work

vast valley
#

And eventuality, yes, I'll be upgrading up to a 3000 series card. And I'll also be upgrading the CPU when that happens too.
